Lin Gongzi medicine jar

Chapter 14 Relatives 1 Table 3

Luo Jiang is just a small steward of the Yongning Marquis Mansion, and with his status, he is naturally not qualified to ask the noble young master Biao to accompany him to the capital. He is just fighting for the young master who will come later.

Before leaving, the Marquis of Yongning asked the young master to invite the young master Biao back to the Hou's mansion, and he had to do so before the end of the year.I thought this would not be a difficult task, but after living in Luojiang for a few days, I couldn't help worrying about his young master.

Although he was immediately rejected by Lin Xi after he got through, in Luo Jiang's view, this was extremely normal.You must know that Young Master Biao is a noble magistrate after all, how can a servant immediately prepare to salute happily after the notification and wait for someone to leave as soon as he arrives? After a few more pushbacks, he was reluctantly "invited to go", showing that he didn't want to go, but agreed because of his disrespect.

But even so, they have to start preparing to go out secretly, there must be some words between servants and women.However, I don't know if the rules of the Lin family are too good, or if they really don't want to leave, the servants are still the same as usual, and there is no hint of excitement in their expressions. Not only are some household utensils, boxes and cages not filed, but they are opened one after another. Little by little, it is arranged in the house, as if it is going to live forever.

Even the butler directed his servants to start preparing for the Spring Festival.

Luo Jiang was in a hurry, so he went to find Fang Xin, who was also from the Hou family, so he should know something.

However, Fang Xin just shook his head, "Looking at the young master these days, although he is young and in poor health, he has great ideas. Since he can't say it, he probably really doesn't want to go. Why build a house and negotiate with the neighbors?"

Luo Jiang was speechless and could only ask to see Lin Xi, but was blocked by Zhou's mother. Master Daobiao was not feeling well and was resting in bed.

Occasionally, when he was in better spirits, when he met him, he just asked Mrs. Tai how she was in good health, and whether the uncles were doing well in being officials. I am not filial, I can't agree, forgive Yunyun, I just coughed a lot, which made Zhou's mother and the two girls look bad when they saw him.

It's really worrying that young master Biao is so weak, and he is not willing to go to the capital to recuperate, which is even more worrying.

A few days ago, I heard that girl Yuanyuan was worrying with the butler that the few precious medicinal materials in Master Biao's prescription of life-saving pills were almost used up, and they needed to be bought as soon as possible.But the housekeeper said that these medicinal materials are not often available even in nearby towns. The previous ones were bought by the uncle when he was in Huaizhou, so Miss Yuanyuan must pay attention to Master Biao's body, and he will think about it as soon as possible. Method.

Although those kinds of medicinal materials are rare, they are still available in the Hou Mansion, even if they are offered regularly, there is no way out.

Luo Jiang made a secret note that when the young master came, he must report it.

Luo Jiang was counting on his fingers how many days before the arrival of the young master of his family. On this day, a woman and a man came to the door of Lin's house.

The woman looks five or sixty years old, with a wrinkled face, a navy blue cloth scarf wrapped around her head, a fat waist and big buttocks, and a dark coarse cloth jacket with a flower scarf around her waist, making her even fatter. However, he still couldn't hide the wandering eyes.

The man was tall and strong, but his back was hunched, and he followed the woman step by step, appearing to be timid.

Knocking on the newly built gate of Lin's house, the gatehouse just opened halfway, and before asking who it was, the woman took a step forward and pushed open the gatehouse with her fat waist, walked in with big strides, and entered the courtyard Then he turned around and glared at the man, cursing: "Hurry up and get out of here, what's there to be afraid of in my nephew's house!"

Hearing this, the man immediately stepped up his pace, pushed aside the blocking porter, and walked quickly behind the woman.

The concierge frowned. It was the first time I saw such an uninvited rural woman, "Who are you? How could you come in without permission? Do you know how to be polite?"

The woman's narrowed eyes immediately widened when she heard the words, she folded her hips and scolded: "How dare you ask who I am, huh, my eldest nephew, he didn't know to see his cousin when he came to Linjiacun. Don't care about taking his elder brother to see him personally, let him come out quickly." While talking, he looked around, "Yeah, it's different for Brother Qing to be an official and master, tsk tsk, look at this broken house. , is even more elegant than Li Zheng's family, it's rich!"

After looking around, he turned his eyes to the main room, regardless of the stunned surroundings, he raised his feet and walked towards the main room.

It's okay, what if I bumped into the young master?Someone rushed to report to Steward Lin, and the rest rushed to stop the man and the woman, but the woman sounded like a relative of Mr. Lin, and they didn't dare to be too reckless, so they persuaded them to go to the reception room in the front yard .

Everyone knows that Lin Qing's parents have passed away for many years, and he doesn't have any serious relatives. Where did this cousin come from?

After hearing the report from the servants, the butler hurried to the front yard. He was the first to follow Lin Qing, and he had never heard the master talk about it, so he was not an important person.

Just at this moment, the woman had already touched the chairs and tables in the living room, which were all newly made, as well as the surrounding furnishings. The greedy eyes that were naked made people frown.

The woman touched the large flower vase by the table, suddenly spit on it, twisted her fingers, "Oh, this vase is really smooth, isn't it worth a lot of money?"

When the butler who just came in saw this scene, his face immediately turned green.

"Mother." Seeing the extremely unkind expression on the housekeeper's face, the man couldn't help flinching, and pushed his mother.

The woman turned around, saw the butler, then looked at the butler's side, straightened her back, raised her head and snorted coldly, and pulled her son to sit on the high seat, "Where's my eldest nephew, why, cousin Why don’t you come out to see your elders when you come here? What’s the reason? You’re still a scholar! You don’t even have a glass of water for so long, and you’re an official young master, don’t you recognize your poor relatives?”

Lin Butler restrained his breath and expression, and asked: "May I ask which cousin of the master's family, who has never been mentioned by the master, so I don't know how to explain it?"

The woman ignored him and said to herself: "Brother Qing has become a high-ranking official. This poor cousin really looks down on him. When he was naked, he would go to my house to eat. Why don't you respect me when you are good in the future?" , Pulling his brother, now the scenery is good, forget what you said when you forget it, if you don’t die and go back to the village, I will never find him in this life. Forget it, everyone is gone, I will find him The elder nephew is the same, let him come out, offer me some tea, treat me and his cousin with good wine and good food, and honor me well in the future, my mother will not care about it."

When talking about food, the man behind the woman grinned, "I want big meat, and I want a big house."

The woman's nonsense and the stupid man made Lin Butler's complexion suddenly black as the bottom of the pot. These two people are obviously scoundrels, and they made up a random door-to-door attack.

Butler Lin's face was cold: "It seems that you are just a local ruffian. Watching the master die, the young master came to blackmail when he was young. Just because you slandered my master and young master with your nonsense, I can tie you up and send you to the county government office." , A paper pleading will let you spend the New Year in prison."

A trace of fear flashed in the woman's eyes, but when she thought about what Lin Luozi's daughter-in-law said, it disappeared immediately. The Lin family had endless fish and meat, endless money, many houses, and people to take care of them. It was almost the same as the villagers. One is in the sky and the other is in the ground.Moreover, Young Master Lin is weak and uncommon. There is only one butler who is good. If he is the elder of the Lin family, Young Master Lin must be filial, but there is nothing to be afraid of a butler. Even if he can't live in it, it is not difficult to ask for some money.

Besides, I already had some relationship with Lin Qing, and the officials cherished their reputation and didn't dare to make a big fuss.

"Don't scare me, tell you, Brother Qing's mother is my mother's cousin. Isn't this old lady the elder nephew's cousin? He lived in my house when he was a child and was taken care of by my mother. Now it's time for the elder nephew to repay his favor." Already!"

A meter of three thousand miles is too embarrassing to say, the thick-skinned city wall can't be compared with an extension of three feet.

Immediately, the surrounding servants of the Lin family sneered, "Hey, how many turns did I meet relatives, how many people in this Lin family village were named Lin, and they were still from the same family 100 years ago. So, here are all Our young master is a relative, but no matter what, it won't be your turn!"

"Just say it in the autumn wind, maybe our young master will take pity on you and give you a few copper coins to buy a sesame seed cake."

Everyone said something to each other, and the woman was full of anger when she said it. She slapped the table fiercely and said angrily: "Fart! Dogs look down on people, it really isn't a good thing, and it's okay to let someone say your cousin casually." You are uneducated! I want to be judged by others, because I disrespected my elders when I first came here, let's see how you stay!"

Then he stood up and walked towards the door.

Lin Butler squinted at the servant next to him. The latter understood, and immediately led someone to close the door, blocking out all the prying eyes from outside.

Seeing that the door was closed, the woman panicked.

Butler Lin didn't need to say much at all. With a wave of his hand, a few thick men immediately stepped forward and tied up the woman and the man.

The woman was scared now, and immediately danced, tore and beat, and shouted loudly: "Murder! Set fire! It's unreasonable! You don't respect your elders, but beat them, what a beast! In the future! It's no fart to give birth to a son. Eyes, to strangle to death after giving birth to a girl... um... um..."

A scarf blocked the woman's mouth, she shook her head but couldn't open it, and her fluttering hands were firmly grasped behind her.Seeing that his mother was tied up, the man raised his fist immediately, but unfortunately, no matter how strong a single person is, he can't compare to the siege of many people, and he was quickly stopped.

Butler Lin looked at them with disgust in his eyes, and his voice was as cold as ice scum: "Diaofu, if you dare to say something nonsense again, I will send you to the county government immediately, and reward you well."

Seeing Lin Butler's eyes didn't look like joking, the woman shook her head vigorously, with fear in her eyes.

"Lin Fang, take a few people and send these two to Li Zheng."

When Yuanyuan got the news, she quickly ran into Lin Xi's room, told the story quickly, and finally couldn't help but angrily said: "Young master, those kind of tricky women, if you want slaves to say that the housekeeper should make people deal with them firmly It’s good to beat them until they can’t see them, and let them know that this is what happens when they have a dirty mouth.”

Lin Xi blew on the paper, looked at her big characters in front of her, and was quite satisfied. Although it was not up to everyone's standards, it would not be shameful to write it out. Show the two girls, "How is it?"

Tuantuan came over to take a closer look, and said, "We are getting closer and closer to the master."

"Looks good." Yuanyuan replied honestly, "Master..."

Lin Xi was satisfied, his father was Tan Hua Lang, and that handwriting, tsk tsk, I heard that it was praised by the emperor, and it can be sold at a good price in the market.Someday the pot will not be uncovered, but his father's calligraphy can still be used in emergencies.

Lin Xi told Tuantuan to put it away and compare it in a few days, but when she turned around she saw that Yuanyuan was still puffing her cheeks and pouting in displeasure, so she couldn't help reaching out and pinching her, saying, "Silly girl."

Yuanyuan stared, and her mouth was raised even higher.

Tuantuan smiled and rubbed Yuanyuan's red face pinched by Lin Xi, and explained: "Although they are hateful, they are still born and bred in the Lin Family Village. When they come to make trouble, they will lose the face of the Lin Family Village, but if the housekeeper ordered to beat them today They, the people of the Lin family village will think that we are losing face to them, and the young master is deliberately protesting, so that we will be against the village, so the young master was trying to put on a face and make a joke before, isn't it a waste of effort."

Lin Xi gave Tuantuan an appreciative look.

"Why are they polite when they make trouble, they are just a few civilians..."

Yuanyuan closed her mouth before she could play, and carefully glanced at his young master, only to hear Lin Xi sigh with emotion: "Yes, our family is just a grassroots now."
