Chapter 363 Come
All the way forward, with a smooth journey, Lin Shiquan was only afraid that Lin Jinrong and Yilang would not be uncomfortable. When it is hot, you have to find that shade to rest. When the weather is comfortable, you have to travel for a while. Everywhere, the ship comes to the shore to rest. It is necessary to get off the ship in person to buy fresh fruits and vegetables, and supervise the boatman to carefully prepare meals, which is actually more thoughtful and meticulous than when Lin Jinrong and
Yilang also lived up to everyone's expectations. He was very healthy and lively. He could eat and sleep. It was his favorite to hold the bow of the boat and bask in the sun when the wind was calm every day. Playing with Lin Jinrong and Lin Shiquan was his happiest moment. On the contrary, Mammy Sha is still seasick. Although she has never vomited after using the ship's secret recipe, she is still drowsy all day long and sleeps drowsy in the cabin most of the time. Although Lin Jinrong felt sorry for her old age and weak, he had no choice but to order the boatman to make some light tonic for her body. Lin Shiquan also remembered to leave a copy of the fresh melons and fruits he bought for her.
Lin Shiquan showed the true nature of his plan to settle accounts along the way. Even if he walked leisurely and slowly, he did not delay for too long. On the evening of September 26, he arrived at Wuyi Pier, the place where the Jiang Temple was located.
The Lu family sent their mother and son servants to pick them up and waited on the shore for a long time. As soon as the ship docked, someone came to confirm. Hearing that it was them, the master immediately asked for a visit. It was Mr. Lu who planned to bring Lu Song to Beijing for Lu, and Lin Jinrong received his salute on the deck: "Thank you for your hard work. How long have you been waiting?"
Lu Song smiled and said, "It's not hard. I just arrived yesterday. I thought I had to spend the sun again. I didn't expect grandma to come so fast. Fortunately, the old man was in a hurry and kept urging him, otherwise he was afraid that he would make a mistake. The inn has been arranged for a long time, and grandma and the fourth young master can check in and rest when they get ashore. Take a day off, and we'll leave tomorrow morning.
Lin Jinrong asked him, "How is Master Lou's health?" Lu Song said cautiously, "I haven't seen the old man for some days. It's all from the words of Manager Fan Da, but I think it's good.
According to the experience of her previous life, Master Lu should have been bedridden at this moment. The reason why it has not been spread is probably because everyone thought that he would survive as before. Lin Jinrong pondered and ordered Lu Song to unload his luggage and greet Lin Shiquan to go ashore.
Waiting to the wide place, the river temple can be seen from afar. Lin Jinrong said, "Has the third brother ever been to that river temple?"
Lin Shiquan didn't care: "Of course, I've been there. I've crossed the river by boat several times, and I've been to worship." Seeing Lin Jinrong standing there and looking, his heart moved, "Does the fourth sister want to see it?"
Lin Jinrong smiled and said, "I want to see it. Is the third brother free? We have been going back and forth on the river so many times, and every time it is smooth, and we should go to the funeral.
Lin Shiquan said, "The left and right have arrived here. Let's take a rest first. It's not too late to see it tomorrow. It's okay to stay here for two more days. Old Master Lu passed away in the early morning of September 30. If he was still on the way, it would be fine, but he had arrived here. It was only two days away from Pingzhou. Lin Jinrong didn't want to stay here for a long time, so he said, "The old man is so worried that I stay here for a long time. It's I'll go and have a look. If the third brother wants to go, it doesn't matter if he doesn't want to.
How can Lin Shiquan rest assured that she will go alone? After returning to the inn to take a bath, he took a short break and accompanied Lin Jinrong to the Jiang Temple.
Aunt Jin was sitting under the eaves to choose vegetables. When she saw her coming in, she was shocked and then laughed: "It turned out to be the second grandma. Are you here to worship? Please come this way." But it is much more enthusiastic and energetic than when we first met.
Lin Jinrong asked Mother Gong to bring 20 taels of silver for her last time. Aunt Jin didn't want it as usual and said that she would worship Jiang Shen for Lin Jinrong. Lin Jinrong came here. Aunt Jin only came to see if the money she donated was dedicated to the god of Jiang. She had no choice but to lead Lin Jinrong in and pointed to her all the way: "Three sticks of incense in the morning and evening, daily worship of fast fruit, and sacrifices during the Spring Festival..."
Lin Jinrong looked at it casually, found a gap, and met the temple Zhu directly, indicating that if Jin Gu was willing to marry someone, she was willing to make up and buy dozens of acres of land around here for them to make a living. She finally figured it out. If she had to wait for Aunt Jin to speak by herself, she was afraid that she couldn't wait until the year of the monkey. There was no need to ask more questions. Just find the temple to smash the money directly.
The temple was overjoyed, and he had to say a lot of grateful words. He called Jingu to come in and kowtowed to Lin Jinrong on the spot.
Lin Jinrong received a half-courtesy from Jin Gu, ordered Lin Gui to give 20 taels of silver to make Jin Gu's makeup, and left money at the market price for his father and daughter to buy land.
Lin Shiquan frowned slightly and disapproved of her behavior very much, but he did not stop her in front of everyone. He only returned to the inn and said gently, "Is Arong's Yizhuang going to start from here? But it's also given too much. Like this, no matter how much furniture you have, you can't help but use it for a few people. You are a little thinner, as long as you have enough to get married, and you can help a few more people with the money saved. Jin Gu is different from those people. Lin Jinrong knew his kindness and didn't want to explain it to him. He laughed and said: Third Brother doesn't know something. This place is located in the traffic arteries. The merchants who cross the river more or less love to go to the river temple to worship. There is a little wind and grass, and it is most likely to spread to other places. If I want to make a good name, I should start here. It's like doing business. Of course, the first business would rather do a decent job at a loss, so as to make a reputation. Lin Shiquan saw that she was serious, but he knew that she was not such a greedy person. On his mind, most people would oppose what Lin Jinrong wanted to do in the future. From now on, it would be better to push forward step by step in such a way, and there would be less resistance at that time, so he stopped persuading her and laughed and
Lin Jinrong held his forehead and smiled, "Don't call me like this. No wonder it's unpleasant." He asked him again, "Last year, we passed here, and Minxing saved Wang Lichun. He told Minxing that there were mountain bandits nearby.
Can the third brother know about this?
Lin Shiquan said, "I heard Erlang say on the way, how?"
Lin Jinrong said to him: "It's nothing. I just suddenly remembered this matter when I got here. At that time, Minxing specially told the captain to ask him to report to the official to suppress the bandits. I don't know if the bandits are still there now? Has it been wiped out?"
Cup Shiquan happened to be bored: "I'll ask and ask, and I'll tell you when I come back."
Lin Jinrong hugged Yilang and laughed in the room, and asked the kitchen to steam a bowl of egg custard for Yilang. When De Yilang ate a bowl of egg custard and fell asleep in Lin Jinrong's arms, Lin Shiquan also came back: "Of course, it is said that someone was robbed last month. Two days ago, there were still people who were robbed in the downstream water bay. The family of seven lost their lives and planted a flag in the bow of
There are not only mountain bandits, but also a water bandit. Lin Jinrong trembled: "Isn't the government going to attack and capture it?"
Lin Shiquan sneered and said, "How can it be so easy to send troops to attack? At that time, I heard that Zeng Hao also opened a team of people out, tossing the people for a long time, and did nothing. Not to mention suppressing bandits, even the bandits did not take care of them, so they went again. Dudao is more tor than mountain bandits and bandits. At that time, the people in the neighborhood couldn't wait for them to leave quickly. Who would take care of those wronged people?
"Is there no other way? Just let these villains harm others like this?" Lin Jin was so sad that he wanted to scratch his hair. She said that these bandits must have something to do with the banditry. If they could use the power of the government to sweep these people away first, they would not be so chaotic and miserable in the future. However, as an ordinary woman, it is impossible for her to reach so far to promote such a thing.
"That depends on what the official thinks. If you meet someone who really wants to do something, it's just a matter of determination. Otherwise, this group of bandits are unlucky and bump into a family that should not be provoked. The government has to take care of it, otherwise I'm afraid it will be difficult. Lin Shiquan shook his head and sighed again, and sighed, "Fortunately, no one has committed murder on the road, otherwise it would have been quite difficult for us to go this way."
After he said this for a long time, he didn't see Lin Jinrong answer. He couldn't help looking up, but saw Lin Jinrong frowning, which seemed to be countless things on his mind, so he regretted that he shouldn't have told her these dangerous things, so he said, "Forget worry, don't think about these Mother and the seventh brother, I can also see Liu'er right away. Take a rest early." Lin Jinrong sent him out and went back to hug Yilang in **, and his family was full of banditry. Her strength is really too weak, and Lu Yan's strength is limited. What's more, there is one of the deadliest problems in it... She can't say it, so it's even more difficult to win other support. She stroked Yilang's pink little face and sighed gently.
I have nothing to say all night.
The next morning, Lin Jinrong and Yilang had enough sleep, had enough to eat and drink, and then got up and rushed back to Pingzhou.
Yilang is no quieter and cleverer than being on the boat. He was very dissatisfied that he had to stay in the closed and narrow carriage for a long time. When he didn't sleep, he cried hard, which made Lin Jinrong heartbroken to death.
I had to take care of Yilang as much as possible. I walked and stopped for three days in less than two days. On the evening of the twenty-ninth, the carriage finally entered Pingzhou City.
Lu Song had long asked people to go forward to report. Lin Jinrong's carriage just arrived at the door, and Lu Jing led a group of people out, leading the horse, pulling the cart, and carrying luggage. Seeing this, Lin Shiquan said goodbye to Lin Jinrong: "I won't send you into the door. I'll go and tell the third aunt first to tell them that they are safe so that they don't have to worry about it.
Lin Jinrong didn't keep him and thanked him through the carriage: "Thank you, third brother. Please tell my mother that I will visit them in a few days."
The carriage stopped at the second gate. The woman came forward attentively to help Lin Jinrong get out of the car and congratulated her and Yilang one after another. Lin Jinrong looked up at the Lu Mansion in the night and quietly told the cherry: "Appreciation, everyone who helps to move things and pick up people today will be rewarded."
