Although I can’t cook any special food nowadays, I can still make the simplest meals.

Lin Huaiyu smelled the fragrance of the food and couldn't help but sigh.

There was a time when he wouldn't even look at such food.

But now, this kind of food has become the best meal for him.

In fact, they had already run out of food yesterday. It was because they went to the Lin family and made a scene yesterday that Lin Shiyuan asked the accountant to give them money.

Fortunately, the accountant did not deduct their money, and even gave them an extra 50 taels of silver at Lin Shiyuan's suggestion. Now all their belongings added up to only 150 taels of silver.

This amount of money meant nothing to them in the past, but now it is a huge sum of money to them.

The reason why he didn't give the money to Lin Ruoting was that he was worried that she would spend the money indiscriminately.

This money is now their lifeblood, and he cannot let anything unexpected happen to it.

When Lin Ruoting arrived at the Zhao family, she was stopped at the door by the Zhao family's servants as expected.

When the Zhao family's servants saw Lin Ruoting wearing coarse linen clothes, a hint of contempt flashed in their eyes.

Although the Zhao family cannot compare with the powerful people in the capital, not everyone can reach their heights.

"Who are you? What do you want to do with our Master?"

When the doorman heard Lin Ruoting say that she was looking for Zhao Xiaozhi, the contempt on his face became even more obvious.

During this period of time, many people have come to see their young master.

But weren't those people here for their young master's talent and fame?

It's a pity that their young master already has someone in his heart and looks down on these vulgar people who recommend themselves.

He spent money to inquire about this matter from someone in Zhao Xiaozhi's study, in order to avoid making a mistake in front of his master.

Originally he thought that this information might not be useful, but when he saw Lin Ruoting, the doorman felt that his choice was right.

Look, here is someone who is eyeing their young master.

If it was any other girl from the capital, he might have considered letting her in to find a good bed partner for their young master.

But the man in front of him, not only was he dressed in coarse linen clothes, but there was nothing stunning about his face. The young master would look down on such a person.

"I...I have something to discuss with Master Zhao."

The concierge sneered, "Don't you realize your status? You can't just go and see our young master whenever you want!"

The doorman looked Lin Ruoting up and down, and the look in his eyes made people feel very uncomfortable.

Lin Ruoting had never been wronged by me like this before, and she wanted to get angry immediately.

But thinking that they were about to leave Beijing, there was no need to cause myself any more trouble.

After all, Lin Ruoxi just needed an opportunity to take action against them, and she must not hand this handle to Lin Ruoxi.

But looking at the doorman in front of her, Lin Ruoting really wanted to slap him.

How could she have ever suffered such injustice in the past?

But she didn't expect that things had changed and even a guard dog dared to yell at her.

When Zhao Xiaozhi came out, he saw the doorman looking arrogant and couldn't help but frowned.

He used to think there was nothing wrong with such people, but after he fell into trouble in his previous life, he met such people, and then he realized how hateful it was to step on the powerful and flatter the weak.

"What happened?"

Zhao Xiaozhi's voice suddenly rang out, startling the originally complacent concierge.

"Son."

Zhao Xiaozhi saw Lin Ruoting at the door only after he came out. However, Lin Ruoting's current clothes were very different from before, and she deliberately used her hair to cover her face when she went out.

Zhao Xiaozhi didn't recognize her at first.

"Who is this?"

Hearing Zhao Xiaozhi's voice, Lin Ruoting immediately raised her head.

Seeing that Zhao Xiaozhi really walked out of the house, Lin Ruoting didn't care about anything else and hurried to meet him.

"Mr. Zhao, it's me, I...I'm Lin Ruoting."

If it were in the past, Lin Ruoting felt that she didn't need an introduction, as Zhao Xiaozhi should know her.

But since they were kicked out of the Lin family, everything has changed, and she has seen some things clearly.

Now that she has fallen to this point, she feels so inferior that she can't even raise her head when facing Zhao Xiaozhi.

Feeling the timidity in Lin Ruoting's eyes, Zhao Xiaozhi was stunned for a moment.

However, when he saw the familiar features, he immediately recognized Lin Ruoting.

But Lin Ruoting's expression made him a little stunned. Whether in the past life or this life, Lin Ruoting always had an arrogant attitude. Why had she ever been so embarrassed?

Although he didn't want to have too much involvement with Lin Ruoting, he wanted to know about the Lin family, so he could only suppress the disgust in his heart.

"It's Miss Lin. I wonder why Miss Lin is looking for me today?"

Lin Ruoting heard Zhao Xiaozhi's still gentle voice, which had not changed because of her current appearance.

Since being kicked out of the Lin family, Lin Ruoting has experienced so many changes in people's attitudes, which made her think that everyone who saw them would step on them.

Now, hearing Zhao Xiaozhi's normal words, her eyes suddenly became red.

"Mr. Zhao, I..."

Before Lin Ruoting could finish her words, her voice began to choke.

Looking at Lin Ruoting's current appearance, although Zhao Xiaozhi didn't know what had happened, he remembered that Lin Shiyuan loved his sixth daughter very much.

"Miss Lin, if it's inconvenient for you to talk here, why don't you come in and have a cup of tea?"

Zhao Xiaozhi felt that it was not appropriate for him to ask about the Lin family in public at the door, so he decided to bring the person in for a cup of tea and ask him about it.

When Lin Ruoting heard this, she suddenly raised her head, her eyes full of disbelief.

She has become like this now, and Zhao Xiaozhi actually invites her for tea?

"Mr. Zhao, you..."

Zhao Xiaozhi didn't say anything, but made an inviting gesture.

Lin Ruoting was overjoyed. She nodded and followed Zhao Xiaozhi into the Zhao family.

When the doorman saw Zhao Xiaozhi bringing people in, his eyes were full of disbelief.

Thinking of Lin Ruoting's coarse linen clothes, it was not something a noble lady in the capital could wear.

But when he heard Zhao Xiaozhi mention the Lin family just now, and thought of Zhao Xiaozhi's attitude towards Lin Ruoting, the doorman suddenly felt that he had made a wrong decision.

For a moment, cold sweat broke out on his face and he felt very annoyed.

I just hope that he didn't offend Lin Ruoting to death today, otherwise his life will be difficult in the future.

Seeing his companion's calm face, the doorman became a little anxious.
