Rich and powerful

Although it is important to be well-matched, it is not inevitable.

As long as his daughter is happy and happy, then he, the father, will definitely bless her.

Holding the wine bowl, Ye Ruhui kept his old eyes on Lin Yun, and said, "Boy, originally, when I heard that you belonged to the Lin family, my first reaction was disgust. As for the reason, I believe Wanqing has already told you! Old man It’s just such a problem, I can’t get used to those corrupt officials the most! Therefore, the old man has offended many people when he is an official! But what I hate the most are these vassal kings who have ruined the country and the people!!”

Lin Yun also nodded, and said: "Don't worry, although I, Lin Yun, belong to the Lin family, I am only a bastard, and I hate the Lin family in my heart! Moreover, I also admire you very much for being such an upright and upright official!"

"Haha!! Is this what you mean? Have you ever thought about taking advantage of the old man's position in the imperial court to gain something for yourself?"

Such a person as Ye Ruhui, he is a first-rank official and a big official in the frontier, not to mention the power of the government, but he is also a big man.

At that time, he was the only one who troubled other officials, but no one dared to provoke him.

Although he is a censor, his background is also scary, and he is definitely not an ordinary person to be able to hang out in such a deep place like the capital.

Therefore, what seemed to be a joke became a kind of temptation to Lin Yun's ears.

Lin Yun was obviously taken aback, and smiled again: "You are too worried! I am just an ordinary villager in Niubei Village, Fengyang County! I have never thought of using your status to seek anything, or, I have no intention of going to Beijing at all. ! This time, it’s all because Wanqing is homesick, and it’s not the busy season for farming yet!”

Ye Ruhui narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at Lin Yun for a long time.

Lin Yun understood that he was examining himself, and he was carefully evaluating whether what he said was true.

He was also somewhat nervous in his heart. These old guys who were officials in the court did not have a fuel-efficient lamp.

Especially the one in front of him is the official censor.

Although he can't control himself as an ordinary person, it still puts a lot of pressure on Lin Yun.

After about a dozen breaths, Ye Ruhui smiled and said, "Not bad! It seems that Wanqing really found a good man this time!"

Lin Yun heaved a sigh of relief.

He sighed inwardly, drinking this wine was really depressing.

Whether he was in contact with Cui Mingchong or Qi Rui, although they didn't trust each other at first, they all followed the unspoken rules.

Moreover, for the sake of their own interests, they will also selectively make friends, which is naturally no problem.

But Lin Yunming knew that the old man in front of him was a thorn in his side, and he really wanted to find out his faults. This kind of person was quite dangerous, and if he really revealed his truth, the consequences might be disastrous.

At this time, just as Ye Ruhui put down the wine bowl, Lin Yun took the initiative to fill it up.

"Son, this old man didn't mean to embarrass you on purpose! But I still have to make some things clear. Although you married my second daughter, you are still a member of my Ye family. Therefore, I need to give you a few requirements. First of all, It’s not that you absolutely can’t collude with corrupt officials. I know that you grow grain in Niubei Village and own a thousand acres of fertile land, so you can be considered a small rich man. Don't blame the old man for killing relatives righteously and not showing affection!"

"A few years ago, this old man also told your eldest brother-in-law!"

Lin Yun nodded. Although he did not agree with the old man's mentality, he was full of respect for his persistence in dealing with work and principles.

"Eldest brother-in-law? Oh, I know!! Wanqing told me that the eldest brother-in-law is the third-class guard of the Ministry of War!"

"It's good that you know! He also begged the old man before, wanting the old man to help him move around! Originally, I wanted to put pressure on the Ministry of War, not his officer, but in the end I relented! After all, he just had this idea , nothing has happened yet, besides, if I really did this, wouldn't I want my eldest daughter to suffer with him?"

Lin Yun slandered inwardly.

"You old man still know this?"

Of course, Lin Yun didn't dare to say it in person, but just nodded vigorously.

"Okay! I've made it clear what should be said and what should not be said! I won't mention these things! Tell me about your farming in Niubei Village!"

As he said that, the old man picked up a piece of roast mutton and ate it, enjoying himself very much.

Lin Yun saw it, and said: "Actually, there is nothing to say! The land that the Lin family allocated to me was not suitable for farming. It was I who worked hard to improve the land, and finally managed to plant crops!"

Ye Ruhui's eyes lit up, and he said, "Is that true? You know how to farm?"

Lin Yun said with a dry smile, "It's just a superficial understanding! I'm making you laugh!"

"This is not an ordinary ability! How is it? Are you interested? Share your ability to open up wasteland and improve the land. This is a great merit, and it will save tens of millions of people in Daduan Shenchao from starvation!"

The corners of Lin Yun's mouth twitched. The old man was full of big talk, but in the end he still wanted to give himself selflessly.

But why?
Lin Yun quickly said: "It was only a coincidence that I improved the land by chance. I don't know much about farming, so don't make things difficult for me!"

Ye Ruhui nodded, but he was not stupid, so he could tell that his second son-in-law did not want to do good deeds without benefit.

And he couldn't force it, so he had to give up.

"By the way, how much money can you earn in this year's harvest?"

Lin Yun was already scolding his mother in his heart.

The old man completely interrogated himself as a prisoner.

Every question is very sensitive, and it seems to be testing yourself.

It's no wonder that Ye Wanqing stopped him repeatedly just now, and Lin Yun could tell that the old man was not stubborn, but had a low EQ.

Lin Yun really couldn't understand, how did such a low EQ person climb to the first rank?

Lin Yun smiled and said, "Not much...not much!"

"How much is not much? Why? You kid still want to hide it from me? Or is there something tricky about you here?"

Sure enough, Ye Ruhui changed the subject, and his tone changed.

As a senior official of the imperial court, he naturally knows the importance of food to a country.

And there are indeed a lot of tricks in it. My second son-in-law seems to be humble, but in fact, he answers all the questions he asks in perfunctory terms.

Lin Yun coughed lightly, and said, "Last year, the total output was 30 catties, but because of the famine in Haocheng, I sold this batch of grain to the imperial court for disaster relief! It's only 7 taels of silver!"

"Of course, I'm not the only one who gets the money. There are more than [-] people in Niubei Village who also need to eat, so I don't have much left!"

It was the first time Lin Yun explained to people so cautiously, for fear of being misunderstood.
