Fast Traveling Underworld Wish Department

Chapter 139
The patriarch on the other side also found out that Lin Damu's family did have this plan, and they had already connected with the people in the palace.The patriarch was very angry, and it wasn't in a famine year, sending a child into the palace to be a eunuch, isn't it a nice thing to hear?
When the patriarch told Lin Damu's family, Lin Damu's grandfather and uncle were a little ashamed, knowing that her grandma's attitude made the patriarch half dead when they knew that they would not say a word.

The old lady yelled: "Da Mu is my grandson, my family is so poor that we can't get rid of it, what can we do if we don't send Da Mu away? Can the family support us?" Speaking of this, she cried again, "Do I want to send Da Mu away? , he is the only flesh and blood of the second child, and my heart hurts a lot, but I can't help it, there is still a whole family waiting to eat!"

It's okay to deceive outsiders. The patriarch lives in the village all year round. How can he not know what kind of virtue this family has and why they are so poor that they can't reveal the blame?
The patriarch sneered, "It's really none of my business that you want to send Damu into the palace, but for the sake of the clan's reputation, as the patriarch, I have the right to expel you from the clan, so as not to tarnish everyone's reputation. This is the kind of person."

Without waiting for them to reply after speaking, the patriarch turned around and left.Old man Lin and his son were not silent anymore, they rushed forward to hold the patriarch back, talked nicely about the family's last resort, and promised that they would never send Lin Damu into the palace.The patriarch calmed down his anger.

But Lin Damu's family is easy to deal with, but the eunuchs in the palace are not easy to deal with. If you agree to give it away, you regret it in a blink of an eye. Isn't this just a joke!Can the eunuch give up?
Of course, if Lin Zhiyuan is alive, there is no problem. A third-rank official, even if he does not show up, is enough for the people in his hometown to pretend to be a tiger, but now that he is dead, what deterrence can a dead person have!Patriarch Lin had no choice but to go to Li Shuzhen again, hoping that she could do something about it. After all these years in the capital, she must have some connections.

Only then did Li Shuzhen learn about Lin Damu's family's coquettish operation. It turned out that the Lin family saw that Lin Zhiyuan was up, and the wife and children of the family were so rich, so greedy, they wanted the children to go to school and get a good reputation.This is a good idea, but the family has no money, so it costs a lot to study.

They expect the clan to support them like Lin Zhiyuan, but the clan is not a fool. Lin Zhiyuan had already shown his talent for reading at that time, so he funded them. Die poor.Therefore, patriarch Lin did not agree.

I didn't want to fight, the Lin family thought left and right, and turned their brains on Lin Damu. Originally, they planned to sell him to a rich family as a slave. It's not for sale to anyone, anyway, it's not me who suffers, so of course the Lin family chooses the side with more money.

Li Shuzhen was also amazed by them. If Lin Damu hadn't heard it himself, his life would have been ruined by these so-called relatives.

That being the case, Li Shuzhen couldn't just ignore her death.But it cannot be saved in vain.Li Shuzhen said: "I can solve this matter, but Lin Damu's family has to sign a divorce letter, and Lin Damu will not belong to his family in the future."

This condition was conveyed by the patriarch. Lin Damu's family refused to agree to it at first.But the patriarch threatened to throw them out of the clan, so they had no choice but to sign a divorce letter.

After getting the divorce letter, Li Shuzhen asked someone to pass a post to the eunuch, and sealed a sum of money to him.

The eunuch was greedy for money, and when he saw the money, he half-agreed, and then saw Li Shuzhen's post. Although Mrs. Lin was dead, the eunuch knew that Mrs. Lin had already been named in the emperor's heart, and of course he was willing to give her a favor. Face, it’s not a big deal anyway.

After the matter was resolved, Li Shuzhen saw that Lin Damu was a good character, so she prepared to take him back to Beijing, but she didn't continue, she just raised him as her own nephew, no matter which way Wanyu went in the future, there was always a way out.

Lin Damu officially changed his name to Lin Xude, and returned to Beijing with Li Shuzhen's mother and daughter.

The Lin family in the capital city had already cleaned the house again when they received the news that the master was coming back, and everything was ready, waiting for the master to return.

Li Shuzhen asked people to arrange a house for Lin Xude, and also asked people to address Lin Xude as a young master. So far, the Lin family has three masters.

Lin Xude is not young, but has never been exposed to poetry and books. The Lin family hired a teacher for him to teach him how to read and write.Lin Xude seems to have come from hell to heaven, he cherishes the good life now, he obeys all the orders of the Lin family, and when he says to study, he will study hard.

After a long time, the teacher was also moved by his diligence, thinking that he was "a child who can be taught", and paid more attention to his teaching.Lin Xude's talent is not high, but he can make up for his weakness with diligence, his knowledge is passable, and more importantly, he has good conduct.The virtue of a gentleman comes first, and this alone makes people look up a lot.

Everyone saw the affairs of the Lin family. Seeing that Mrs. Lin returned to her hometown, there was an extra child in the family, and they all thought that she had adopted a child from the clan.This is also human nature, otherwise, if Mrs. Lin is gone, how will Mrs. Lin, mother and daughter live!

Outsiders speculate and talk about it, it has nothing to do with them, and they don't often care about it. After a long time, the affairs of the Lin family will no longer even make sense as a topic of conversation.

In this way, the Lin family fell silent in the capital, and the whole family began to close their doors and keep their filial piety.Wanyu reads and writes all day long, Li Shuzhen apparently only takes care of her dowry business, and Lin Xude studies desperately.For a while, Lin's mansion was surrounded by an atmosphere of striving for progress.

The only thing that made Li Shuzhen feel strange was that Lin Zhiyuan's study had been turned over more than once.Afterwards, Li Shuzhen also looked carefully in the name of cleaning, but found nothing, and didn't know who it was?What are you looking for?
Three years later, Lin's filial piety ended.Usually, in order to show that the family can re-enter the social circle, it is necessary to hold a banquet.

However, the Lin Mansion had been silent for a long time, and there was nothing worth investing in. Li Shuzhen also knew that she might humiliate herself by holding a banquet, so she gave up and only attended the banquet at the Min Duke's Mansion.

At the banquet, there were many wives and noble daughters, and Li Shuzhen was a guest of the Duke of Fujian's mansion. Even though the Lin mansion fell, the ladies were harmonious on the surface, deeply expressing what is meant by harmony in the upper circle.

Li Shuzhen returned home after attending the banquet, looking at the scattered flowers and plants in the garden, and some vegetables were neatly planted in some places, which were planted during the filial piety period to save money.

Wanyu came out and called out: "Mother." Her face was filled with a cheerful smile, like the warmest sunshine, and like a sunflower in full bloom.

Li Shuzhen looked over and saw that Wanyu was chattering about family affairs, how many articles she had written today, how many pages she had read, what insights she had, what her brother had learned, and what articles she had written.Instead, he didn't say a word about Li Shuzhen's participation in the banquet.

When Lin Xude heard that Li Shuzhen was back, he also put down his books and came over to say hello. When they met, he asked: "How about aunt attending the banquet today?"

Wanyu wanted to knock his head off.She quickly changed the subject and asked, "How is brother's article today?"

Lin Xude didn't really want to know how the banquet was going, but he just cared about Li Shuzhen. Now when he heard Wanyu's question, he was distracted, and he talked about his own feelings about learning, proving that he didn't eat for free , or study hard.

Li Shuzhen smiled and watched the two of them serious about studying there.After Lin Xude finished speaking, he encouraged him: "Study hard, and I will come back with a good reputation in the future."

Lin Xude nodded seriously.

Turning around, Wan Yu discussed with Li Shuzhen: "Mother, why don't we pack up and go back to our hometown, there is nothing interesting in the capital, and I'm tired of living in it. And my brother needs to go back to his hometown if he wants to take the exam in the future."

Li Shuzhen just smiled and didn't agree.Wanyu had no choice but to find a chance to persuade her next time.In fact, she felt that she was naive before, always thinking that she could solve everything, but in fact she couldn't solve it at all.
