Chapter 022 Scissors
Zhao Wenxuan did not go to the county government with Zhang Chi, but took the initiative to hand over the city defense with Lin Zimo. Since Zhang Chi can bring his family back to Pingnan County, it shows that the crisis has passed. Lin Zimo, who is close to the limit, is naturally willing to hand over. At present, his greatest wish is to go home and have a good sleep to replenish his lost physical strength and energy.
Lin Zimo, with a tired face, did things seriously before leaving, and his expression revealed that he was tired and said, "It's troublesome for Zhao Baihu. If you need it, you can come to me at home at any time.
Zhao Wenxuan held his fists and said politely, "Lord Lin, thank you for your hard work. Please go home and have a good rest. If you really encounter an inexplable problem, you will definitely discuss it with adults.
Immediately, Lin Zimo arched his hand and made a difference. When he relaxed, he felt erratic walking on the street, as if he were drunk. I don't feel any personal disgust for this new 100 households, but I'm just worried about his ability to deal with business.
Thinking about it, Lin Zimo walked to his door and saw that the door was empty, and a sense of unhappiness rose from the bottom of his heart. While pushing the door and walking in, he accused Yang Mengqi of carelessness. After all, he repeatedly warned her to pay attention to safety before leaving. When he entered the vestibule, he suddenly felt that the home was too quiet, and a bad feeling quickly emerged. Lin Zimo, who didn't think much, accelerated his pace and walked to the inner hall.
Yang Mengqi, sitting on the edge of the bed, had red and swollen eyes, and his face was quite pale. He was quite haggard. Hearing the noise, she completely focused her attention on the direction of the door of the inner room. A few seconds after Lin Zimo stepped into the inner room, she suddenly stood up. With a bang, the scissors in her hand fell to the ground.
Lin Zimo, who had not had time to put down the sword in his hand, was hugged by Yang Mengqi. She jumped into her arms and suddenly burst into tears. Lin Zimo, who was moved, put one hand around her waist, and the other hand gently stroked her hair like a black waterfall, while his eyes were attracted by the sharp scissors on the ground.
Lin Zimo suddenly realized what this silly girl was going to do. If he really can't come back, it is expected that Yang Mengqi will definitely wipe his neck with that pair of scissors. Although the two were newly married and their relationship was still growing, he never thought that this seemingly weak little woman was such chastity.
"Little fool, there is nothing left when people die. Whether I am or not in this world, you don't have the idea of martyrdom anymore. If I really die, you can still remarry. Lin Zimo said extremely gently, "You have to promise me to live a good life."
"A good woman doesn't serve the second husband." Yang Mengqi was very stubborn and said, "If you are really not there. The slave family will definitely go with you.
Lin Zimo's body and mind are not only moved, but also particularly warm. He thinks that women in this era really have a feudal idea of marrying chickens with chickens and dogs. Although his mouth kept saying that Yang Mengqi was a stupid girl, his whole body had already been surrounded by a kind of unprecedented happiness.
"Where are the other people in the family?" Lin Zimo tasted the happiness of the moment while asking where they were going.
"The three mothers in the family were on vacation by the slave family, and Cailian went back to the Chu family with Chu Hanlu to live temporarily." Yang Mengqi stopped tears and choked several times, "At that time, the slave family was really afraid that you couldn't come back."
"Your father-in-law is a great man and can't die for a while." Lin Zimo, who knew that his family was sound, laughed and comforted her, "The crisis in our family and Pingnan County has passed."
In fact, he knows in his heart that it can't be that simple at all. Since the rebels are already operating nearby, there will be a bloody battle sooner or later. If I really put all my hopes on Zhang Chi and Zhao Wenxuan, I'm afraid Pingnan County will be completely finished. He always believed that Zhang Chi could escape once and there would be a second time.
And Zhang Chi can come back in a high-sounding way, which can prove that there is someone above him. Not only can he abandon the city, but also say that he has made contributions to Pingnan County. After all, at least he brought a Ming Dynasty officer into the city to garrison. As for the strength of the 68-person team, it is not clear. However, Lin Zi vaguely felt that Zhao Wenxuan and Zhang Chi did not seem to be the same person. After all, the two did not appear outside the city together.
Although Lin Zimo is in Yang Mengqi's arms, he still thinks about some things in the officialdom. When Zhang Chi entered the city, he lost the face of a county. I'm afraid he will have to write this account on himself again. Lin Zimo guessed that there would be nothing good for this boy to return to be in charge of the main hall.
The more Lin Zimo thought about it, the more tired he became. He simply didn't think about it, so he picked up Yang Mengqi and walked to the bedside. She was completely unprepared, and a natural shy color appeared on her face. Yang Mengqi, who bit his lower lip, jumped wildly.
Lin Zimo, who put her on the edge of the bed, undressed and said peacefully, "In the past two days, my wife must be scared and tired. We still go to bed early.
Lin Zimo, who was about to open his eyes, took himself clean and quickly went to bed and got into the quilt. Yang Mengqi, who was sitting by the edge of the bed, got up again and bent down to pick up the clothes scattered on the ground. Before she could finish picking it up, she heard the thunderous purr coming into her ear.
Yang Mengqi, who recalled the sweetness, shook his head gently and said to himself understandingly, "My father-in-law, I'm really tired."
Talking to herself, she continued to pick up the clothes that Lin Zimo threw on the ground casually. After Yang Mengqi finished cleaning up his dirty clothes, he came to the edge of the bed again and covered his quilt very carefully. Although her body and mind are also tired, the power of love is enough to support her. She is very happy about this kind of hard work.
When Lin Zimo opened his eyes again, it was already dawn and it was almost time for lunch. He didn't know about this, and it felt as if he closed his eyes and opened his eyes. After sleeping all day and night, he just felt a little stiff, so he got up and moved his limbs.
A quarter of an hour later, the well-dressed Lin Zimo walked out of the north room refreshedly. When he came to the vestibule, he suddenly felt that his family had regained his vitality. During his sleep, Yang Mengqi brought the rest of the family back.
Yang Mengqi, who held a bowl of steaming lotus soup in both hands, came to him and said, "I guessed that my father-in-law must be hungry, so let's eat a bowl of lotus seed soup first to cushion my stomach. Lunch has not been cooked yet. I hope you can wait for a moment.
Seeing that Lin Zimo, who was uninhabited, stretched out his right hand, wrapped her waist branch, and said with a bad smile, "In the past few days, my wife has really lost a lot. As long as I see you, I won't feel hungry, but..."
Being flirted by him made Yang Mengqi almost drop the porcelain bowl in his hand to the ground.
"Don't make fun of the slave family." Suddenly blushed, she seemed to understand and blurted out: "The officials are the worst."
Lin Zimo, who successfully flirted, smiled proudly and took the lotus soup and said, "I'll take a bite, wife, okay?"
"My father-in-law is dead." Yang Mengqi, who was thin-skinned, pretended to be angry and said, "I ignore you."
After saying that, she held her hot face in her hands and turned around and ran away. Lin Zimo, who had lotus seed soup in his hand, smiled and sat in a circle chair and ate it. He just ate a few spoonfuls and didn't have time to say a word 'good'.
Chu Dalang came out after coming for a long time and said with a smile on his face, "Good afternoon, brother-in-law."
Lin Zimo saw his appearance and knew that he had come to fulfill his promise to be a catcher. Out of personal feelings, I definitely don't want him to eat in public. After all, the water in the government is too deep. Ordinary people only see the scenery on the surface of the officials, but they do not see the underwater reefs and rapids they have to face.
From the perspective of Lin Zimo's rationality, he thinks that Chu Dalang is still suitable for eating imperial food. After all, this boy is still a little smart. It is reasonable to put his cronies in the government. After all, he also needs to listen to the news for him. Since Chu Dalang is so enthusiastic about this job, it's better to fulfill him.
"Don't worry, I'll make arrangements for you." Lin Zimo stirred the lotus soup in the bowl with a spoon and said, "Since you are the eldest brother of Hanlu, I have to find a good future for you. If nothing happens, there will be news in the past few days.
"Thank you for your help." Chu Dalang's eyes were so smiling that he couldn't open his way.
"Our family is about to start dinner, so you can stay and have dinner together." Lin Zimo said that he was in love with his family.
"I listen to my brother-in-law's arrangement." Chu Dalang responded in a blooming way.
Lin Zimo, who had finished speaking, continued to eat lotus seed soup, and he retreated very knowledgeablely. Lin Zi, who continued to eat lotus seed soup, thought to himself that he would definitely go to the government office for a while tomorrow. After all, the two had to make some deals. Although there are people in Xunzhou Prefecture who can help him hide his escape, they can't avoid the inspection of the capital and the assessment of three years of political achievements. Without confusion, he has already had a certain calculation in his mind.
Zhang Chi can regard others as nothing, but he has to be afraid of Lin Zimo. After all, the main book is both a superior officer and a rating officer. If Zhang Chi wants to treat his disgraceful thing as if it hadn't happened, it must be a benefit to Lin Zi. Otherwise, he would fall into great trouble, and maybe he would be guilty of raiding his family and extermination.
