It's just no matter what Lin Baocheng thinks.

People also have to check carefully.

However, during the investigation period.

People from the Zhou family came very frequently.

Moreover, every time Zhou Jinshi and his wife came to the door, they would pack big and small bags, and the things they packed were all excellent, as if they were making up for the vacancies of these years.

The Zhou family visited so frequently, and it didn't take long for everyone in the village to know about it.

Lin Li and Lin Li felt nothing.

He is not his own son at all, Lin Li is not happy about whether he can recognize his relatives, and he will not have any other ideas. Even if he knows that the Zhou family who came here to recognize his relatives has a lot of money, there are several grain and oil companies in the town. shop, but she would not think about making a fortune.

Because of her self-knowledge, she really has no face to seek any benefits from her treatment of Lin Dong these years.

So, although she was a little surprised, she didn't take the initiative to come to the door.

Lin Li has had some contacts with this third brother in the past few years, knowing this is nothing more than to be happy for him, and also has other plans.

It was in the old house of the Lin family.

But in a year's time, the most dilapidated house in Xishan Town is probably the so-called old house of the Lin family.

It was also the courtyard where old man Lin and Lin Lin lived.

Ordinarily speaking, the three brothers Lin Li, Lin Qi, and Lin Dong, those who moved out moved out, and those who got married got married, but speaking of which, even if the three of them don't like old man Lin, he is their father after all, so they will still give each other money every month. Some food money.

Not a lot of money, but definitely not a lot.

There is a lot of meat for three meals a day for the father and daughter, and there are even some leftovers.

In this way, the old man Lin, who was extremely envious in the eyes of others, would rather take the money given to him by his three sons to make up for his eldest brother and mother.

Even if I eat pickles and drink plain water, I have no complaints or regrets.

Or it can be said that he has no complaints or regrets towards his eldest brother and mother, but he is full of hatred and anger towards his three sons and the mother-in-law who left him.

However, no matter how angry he is, he can only bury it in his heart.

After all, the one who gave him money every month was the one he hated and was angry with.

But at the same time, the eldest brother and mother were behind their backs, and kept speculating that he would get more money, but there was no way.

But on this day, old man Lin heard that the Zhou family members came to the door again, he had a calculation on his face, and he thought carefully.

He asked, "Where are the Zhou family members now?"

"At the village chief's house." It was the youngest daughter of the Lin family, Lin Lin, who spoke.

At this time, Lin Lin has changed drastically from a year ago. She is thin and thin, her cheeks are sunken, her hair is disheveled, but her clothes can be seen to be brand new.

She licked her lips and said timidly: "Father, there is almost no food at home, and I'm afraid we won't be able to eat until the end of the month."

Old man Lin felt impatient when he heard it. He waved his hands and said, "If there is no food, why don't you ask your mother to ask your three brothers to get it? You stupid thing, even if you are a little excited, we will still be hungry?"

Lin Lin shrank from being scolded, and didn't care to speak again.

But let her ask for it.

It is true that she can get something to eat, but she can't hold back this face at all.

Mother also asked her to live with her eldest brother many times, Lin Lin was also moved, but she didn't dare.

Compared with being able to eat well and dress well, what she dared not do was disobedience to her father.

Old man Lin looked at Lin Lin with a silent expression again, his face was angry, he raised his hand and wanted to slap him, but when he raised it, he didn't fall down, he could only sigh heavily, and shouted: " Don't rush to do things, and don't look at what the family looks like, a girl's hands and feet are not diligent, what use is there for you?"

Lin Lin lowered her head, and immediately went out of the room to clean up the house.

But in such a big courtyard, how could she bear all the affairs on her shoulders.

She reached out and grabbed the hem of the coat, this new dress was made for her by her mother, she was afraid of getting it dirty when she was cleaning it in the new clothes, but she had to go past her father to change clothes, how could she dare.

But the old man Lin in the main room had other ideas at this time.

With hesitation on his face, he took a few deep breaths before he settled down and walked out.

Along the way, he headed towards Village Chief Lin's house.

……

At this time, at the dealer.

Zhuang Xinyan waited for an unexpected guest.

He was standing in the garden, and he and his little husband took Ke Ke on a painting boat, walking slowly on the stream.

The boat is not big, and it can only accommodate three or four people. As the river is not wide, a bigger boat will not be able to swim.

Ke Ke was lying on the side of the boat, holding the clear water in the stream with her small hands, and the younger generation had a black paw, obviously Charcoal cake was protecting him.

It was at this time that Shan Nai rushed over, standing on the bank, and shouted loudly: "Master, County Magistrate Jiang is here to visit."

Zhuang Xinyan raised his eyebrows.

County magistrate Jiang didn't come and go with him many times, but there seemed to be a tacit understanding between them. If it wasn't for some important matter, they wouldn't appear in front of each other.

The last time we met.

It's still a reward from the government up and down.

It's just that half a year has passed, and Zhuang Xinyan is not sure why magistrate Jiang came to the door this time.

"You go first, I will take them to play again."

When Shannai came to call, everyone on the boat could hear it. Ke Ke held the charcoal cake and leaned against its head, with a look of reluctance on his small face, that he was not done yet.

Lin Qi looked at him and opened his mouth.

Zhuang Xinyan nodded, got ashore, and headed towards the hall.

At this time, County Magistrate Jiang turned his hands behind his back, and instead of sitting on the chair, he looked at the landscape painting hanging on the wall.

Even if people entered the hall, he still didn't take his eyes off the landscape painting, but looked more engrossed.

Zhuang Xinyan didn't bother him, but poured some tea and waited beside him.

It wasn't until a while later that County Magistrate Jiang said with emotion: "Good painting, good painting."

Thick ink, outline, light ink, foil, light color, rendering.

Mountains, flowing water.

It is coherent and natural.

County magistrate Jiang saw that there was no font size left on the painting, but seeing that it looked like a new painting, he couldn't help asking, "Whose painting is this?"

Zhuang Xinyan handed over the teacup and said, "My lord, you also recognize the Wenzheng of our village."

"Wenzheng?" County magistrate Jiang chewed these two words.

In fact, he really had some impressions of this person, General Zuo, Elder Qin, and Liansheng who was sent away last time, these people have some relationship with this person named Wenzheng.

It's just that he doesn't know much, mainly because he doesn't want to get involved.

He said: "It's really a good painting."

When he finished speaking, he didn't even take his eyes off the screen.

Zhuang Xinyan didn't follow the trend to send the painting out.

Wenzheng's paintings are really good, and he loves to paint, but with Wu Tingyi, Wenzheng's paintings are basically not sent out, but are kept privately by that stingy man. The few paintings at home now are still Xiaoyi Borrow flowers and offer Buddha to give to him.

After Jiang County Magistrate finished appreciating it, he asked, "I don't know what your lord is doing this time?"

County magistrate Jiang took a sip of tea before he said: "This time, I am saying goodbye to you. After the three-year period expires, I have to return to Beijing to resume my job next month. When the New Year's Day is over, the county magistrate of Genshan Town It's not me anymore."

It was only then that Zhuang Xinyan remembered that there were still a few years before the Chinese New Year, and it was inevitable that the county magistrate would leave.

If there is no credit for the vegetable oil, maybe Jiang county magistrate will still be in his original position.

But now it's different, Jiang county magistrate's position will only be high but not low.

He clasped his fists together and said, "The grass-roots congratulates the county magistrate first."

A smile appeared on Jiang County Magistrate's face immediately.

He nodded and accepted the congratulations ahead of time.

Although there is no definite answer, but he knows that by next year, his official position will only be higher or lower, and it may even be higher than what he imagined. There are definitely not many opportunities to show up in front of you.

And he even showed a big face.

But at this time, County Magistrate Jiang restrained his smile, and said in a slightly deep voice: "Besides, there is one more thing. The person who will take over my position next year will definitely not be completely unscrupulous in government affairs." If you have no foundation, you should be careful when getting along with such a person, try to make friends if possible, even if you can't, don't make bad friends."

Zhuang Xinyan kept the magistrate Jiang's kindness in mind.

In fact, he also has an estimate in his heart.

Fortunately, he was able to meet two people in this place.

One is Village Chief Lin, who is in charge of Xishan Village, and the next is County Magistrate Jiang of Genshan Town.

A village and a town.

Both of them are not that kind of treacherous people, and even their hearts are towards him.

Otherwise, even if he has all kinds of abilities, countless troublesome things will come to him.

Zhuang Xinyan already knew that the reason why he was able to live so leisurely in this place was that behind his back, Village Chief Lin and County Magistrate Jiang drove away some people who were thinking carefully.

Otherwise, when the business starts, it will be extremely difficult for him.

Although Zhuang Xinyan was never afraid of these, it saved a lot of trouble.

Thinking of this, Zhuang Xinyan took a step back, clasped his fists again and bowed slightly, and said sincerely: "My lord, you may not know all about what you have done, but you definitely have received this favor from you. If there is a need in the future, Cao Min can help and will definitely lend a helping hand."

The county magistrate Jiang also showed excitement on his face.

He really cared about this promise.
