Chapter 058 Zhenyuan

This night, except that the north house will not stop, the upper and lower parts of the Lin Mansion will not be calm. The news that Cailian was praised by Yang Mengqi soon spread away. The Lin family's group of quite snobbish people are talking in private. Three of them couldn't wait to send her a congratulatory gift, and the two little maids who were usually well and managed by her were more attentively flirting and cousins, hoping that she could take care of them at a convenient time. If Cailian could say a few good words for one of them in front of the two wives, then I would be very grateful.

The two little maids are the slaves of Chu Hanlu, who have been arranged and dispatched by picking lotus, so they have always been excluded by picking the moon. Therefore, people in Linfu knew that Caiyue was the close maid of the eldest lady Yang Mengqi, so they stood on her side. In addition, Cailian is also a person who has no dispute with the world and only wants to serve her master, which makes the bullied people often feel that they have no future with her. After all, she did not stand up to speak and support her two little maids. With the momentum, Cailian will become the first girl in charge of Lin's house, so they immediately felt that their good days were coming.

As for the gifts sent by others, Cailian did not accept any of them, but politely refused. Honest, in addition to accepting the silver given to herself by Yang Mengqi every month and the extra things given to her by the three masters, she has never taken too much advantage of a penny in Linfu. Cailian, who was grateful, felt that all this was given to him by the master and two wives. Otherwise, he was just a wild girl in the countryside who had never seen anything in the market and didn't understand many things. It was absolutely impossible to have the scenery as it is now. She expressed her gratitude to the three masters with her loyalty.

On the way back to the east wing, Cai Yue, who was unhappy, sneered at her. Cai Yue knew that the position of the maid in charge should have belonged to him. If it hadn't been for his master's sisterhood and deliberately promoted the status of the second wife Chu Hanlu in the family, he would not have cultivated Cailian, a fool, to manage the land of the Lin family.

As far as she knows, nearly a quarter of the good fields in Pingnan County have been bought by his wife Yang Mengqi. Just thinking about the power in Cailian's hands is enough to make her resentful and dissatisfied. To put it bluntly, any farmer who rents forest land has to flatter the maid, otherwise there will be no land to rent and end up with a whole family begging.

Due to the death rules set by Linzi, farmers who rent their own fields can hand in much less grain than farmers who rent other large households' fields. Therefore, farmers are not only willing, but also scramble to rent their land. Although Lin Zimo is a person who only exempts half of the tax from the imperial court, he is also the governor of Xunzhou, which makes the tax collectors of Pingnan County afraid to collect the other half of the tax on the fields under his family's name. As for the insufficient part of the imperial tax, it was naturally passed on to the small and medium-sized landlords by their clever name.

This kind of land merger and Ming Dynasty is a prominent feature of the times. In addition, after paying the prescribed rent of grain, farmers also have to give their owners all kinds of wild animals to taste according to a certain time. If that family does not abide by this unspoken rule, it is hard to say whether his family can still grow fields next year. Even for farmers under the same owner's name, conflicts of interest still exist. After all, everyone wants to live a good life. How can I live a good life? For farmers, it is necessary to rent more land from the owner's house, and rent well-planted fields.

As for whether they can rent more land and rent good land, it is not their decision, but the maid needs to decide. After all, there are too many fields in his own. Yang Mengqi will not manage every farmer who rents his own fields one by one, but just needs to check the accounts. As long as there are no mistakes in the checked accounts and actual income, I will conclude that the maid in charge has not derelictioned her duty. She didn't have time to ask and deal with some trivial things behind them.

Cailian didn't know that all this was TOEFL for his master Chu Hanlu. Later, Cai Yue's mouth revealed the mystery, which made her grateful to both the first lady and the second lady. When she returned to the east wing and saw her master, she knelt down and kowtowed to thank him, which made Chu Hanlu stunned and had no idea what had happened.

At the same time, Yang Mengqi, who was in tears, knelt down in front of Lin Zimo, hoping that he could change his mind. Sitting on the chair, he saw his wife like this, stood up, bent down and helped her up. She was still tearful, and her eyes revealed the feeling of pity, which really softened his heart in an instant.

"Oc, Yang Yu doesn't have to go to Erlong Mountain as a hostage. Just promise you for your husband." Lin Zimo, who smiled a little, seemed really helpless in his heart, and his expression still showed a serious expression: "As for the establishment of mutual trust between the government and mountain thieves, I will discuss it with the people of Erlong Mountain again. You don't have to worry about Yang Yu anymore. After all, you have a lot of things on you.

Yang Mengqi looked at him and made a deep blessing to express his gratitude: "Thank you for your kindness to my mother's Yang family."

Lin Zimo nodded, expressing his understanding of the inheritance of incense in the Ming Dynasty. After talking for a while, the couple went to bed. Yang Mengqi, who was in a good mood, snuggled up in his arms and soon fell asleep. Lin Zimo, who was not asleep, thought to himself. If Yang Yu didn't go, I'm afraid he would have to go by himself. Otherwise, Wang Qiang's life could not be saved, and the whole plan would fail. After making up his mind, he turned his head and kissed Yang Mengqi, who was sleeping beside him, and fell asleep relaxedly.

Lin Zimo, who woke up, cleaned up, had breakfast, and then went to his office. At about nine o'clock in the morning, he led the mountain thief Lao Wu and his two of his confidants to have a good corrupt hair and came back to report. While leading the three of them to eat, drink and have fun with public funds, he was happy together.

Lin Zimo put down the brush in his hand and picked up the tea on the desk before he could drink it. Seeing that his face was full of spring breeze, he knew that his party must have been happy yesterday and said, "Say it!"

"Master, don't worry, everything you told me has been done properly." Mao Yong is full of confidence.

Lin Zimo, who didn't say anything, drank tea calmly and thought that they must have spent a lot of money. As long as he can do the arranged things for himself and spend a few more money, he won't hurt himself.

Mao Yi, who stood still without moving half an inch, suddenly laughed and continued to report: "I gave one of the three leaders, and called ten girls to serve him one night. Ha ha... I guess he should still be lying ** asleep. Even if he wakes up, if he doesn't have backache and weak limbs, I will use his surname.

Lin Zimo almost spit out the tea in his mouth. One night, there were ten women, who were extremely human, and these ten women were not good women, but long-standing women in the brothel. Their "18 kinds of martial arts" are naturally good. If they don't turn the mountain thief Laowu into a soft-footed shrimp, it will never be finished. In advance, Mao Yong will definitely tell her that they will be rewarded for their service.

"You boy, go down and get me a reward!" Lin Zimo, who couldn't help laughing, urged without putting down the tea in his hand.

Mao Yong held his fists and said proud of his masterpiece: "Thank you for the master's appreciation of silver."

After laughing, Lin Zimo was more or less worried about the body of Lao Wu, a mountain thief. In case he really died of a scattered "true yuan", I'm afraid it would be troublesome. After all, the mountain thieves on Erlong Mountain would not believe that he would die on the bellies of women, but that he would die at their own hands. Lin Zimo, with his back on the circle chair, couldn't help laughing when he thought that "Zhenyuan" had dispersed. He thought that Mao Yong's boy was really bad enough, and the mountain thief Lao Wuguo had been "hungry" for too long.

Not long after Mao Yong went out, and Gao Xiang walked in slowly with his fists in his hands and reported: "Your Excellency, Madam has just sent Cai Yue to send a message and wants you to go back to the back hall."

'Oh', Lin Zimo said that he knew. He thought that he had promised Yang Mengqi that he would not arrange her cousin to be a hostage. Did she change her mind? Lin Zimo, who stood up slowly, felt that it was unlikely. He knew that his wife must have something important to find him, otherwise he would not have easily sent someone to send a message at this time.

Lin Zimo, who returned to the back hall, went straight to the study to find Yang Mengqi. He opened his mouth and said, "My wife won't be a husband for a while. Do you want to? It's really an answer. It's like seeing each other every three autumn.

Yang Mengqi, who was waiting for him for a cup of tea, inadvertently figured it out, so he hurriedly sent Cai Yue to the front hall to call him back and said in a serious manner, "If Yang Yu doesn't be a hostage, his husband can't risk going there."

Lin Zimo, who knew that his wife was not an ordinary smart woman, said lightly, "For my husband, you are thinking nonsense again. If you don't think about something in your mind, the meat on your body will grow more.

"You are my father-in-law, so the slave family will be more worried about your safety." Yang Mengqi said bluntly what he thought.

"Don't think about it. You will have your own ideas." Lin Zimo, who pretended to disapprove, grabbed his hair and said, "What did I think it was a big thing? It turned out to be all your imagination. If you don't have anything else, then I have to go."
