Lin Ji's struggling life

The students of Liupan Academy are mainly from various counties in Pingliang, and the students of the General Academy are considered to be of a relatively high level.It has been half a year since Liupan Academy opened. Now, the five gentlemen led by the dean take turns to give lectures, and Mr. Wu is responsible for leading them to keep fit.After the time was arranged, the enthusiasm of the children was mobilized by the endless rewards.In order to meet next year's childbirth examination, almost [-] students have been selected to focus on training.

Lin Ji would visit the academy from time to time, seeing the students who were neatly dressed and had the same hairdos, he felt very happy.The achievements of the academy are naturally eye-catching, and the public workshops that have emerged in various counties have also made great breakthroughs.Now many workshops have been contracted out, and a new class, the working class, has emerged in Pingliang.The whole of Pingliang is full of vitality, and people's lives have undergone great changes.

After winter, Lin Ji started to do disaster prevention work.In order to prevent people from being frozen to death, he sent the yamen servants of each county to go to the countryside to inspect.If there are elderly people who are lonely or have nowhere to go, they can be sent to the newly built Anyangtang.

This Anyangtang was established in Zarafon'a's name after her arrival, and it is a place to house the elderly and children.Lin Ji dialed two assistants to her, and then connected her to win the right to use the house for her.Zarafon'a hosted several banquets, and after getting acquainted with the wives of Pingliang, he began to operate the Anyangtang.With the support of these wives and the support of the husband, the work is carried out smoothly.

She didn't hide her purpose, and honestly, in her role, there was no need to hide it.A majestic daughter of a county king can naturally play a deterrent role in this poor village of Piling.

In order to deal with her, many people agreed one after another, so the Anyang Hall was successfully built.Now there are many lonely old people who have been sent from various places in Pingliang. Recently, some people even left their children in front of the gate of Anyangtang.

A few local widows were hired to help take care of it here, and the old people in the yard helped, and the older children took the younger ones, and this Anyangtang was maintained in this way.In addition to food, drink and clothing, the money allocated by Zarafon'a also includes money for soup and medicine on weekdays.She is going to send the children to the academy when they grow up, and those who can study will study, and those who can't will work in the academy, so they can always have a skill and rely on it for a living.

There was little work in winter, and before the snow fell, Lin Ji recruited a large number of migrant workers to repair the roads going to and from Pingliang and various places.Then use a stone mill for pressing wheat to roll back and forth on it until the road is flat.

The people in charge of each village and county town issued tasks one by one, distributed materials, migrant workers contributed, government offices produced goods, Lin Ji contributed money, and in this way, the road construction incident in Pingliang was carried out vigorously.When the first snow fell, the land of Pingliang was solid, and people walked on this wide road with pride in their hearts.

In this way, the two husband and wife managed the business slowly, hoping to turn Pingliang into a dream home.

The Lin family in the capital is also preparing things for the New Year. Lin Daiyu is sitting on the kang and copying the gift list. This year, she is alone in charge of the housework, and she has to take care of all aspects. hands, four legs.But at this time, a lot of things happened and messed up.

Familiar families such as the Zhang family, the Gao family, the Chen family, and the Li family all had heavier gift lists this year, and there were also many unfamiliar families who also came to present, which made her puzzled.However, Lin Ruhai is also busy visiting relatives and friends these days, and there are few people to discuss with, but she can only copy down the gift list first, and is going to ask her father before making a decision.

Mammy Xiong, who was watching from the side, said, "Miss, don't worry, these people are just looking at the young master's achievements in Pingliang, seeing his promising future, and they just want to climb up the ladder. This young master If you are not in the capital, and the master is pure-hearted and ascetic, this gift must not be delivered to your home."

Mama Xiong said that the Lin family is indeed going to rise. Lin Ji has a title and is favored by the emperor, and now he is capable of being an official.Everyone has seen the changes in Pingliang in the past two years. Lin Ji's measures were all written in memorials by the censor and presented to the emperor's desk.

Needless to say, a person like Lin Ji is destined to rise to the top. Now that the discord among the princes is becoming clearer, and the prince is now weak, the other princes will naturally rise.Lin Ji had many contacts with the princes, and it was precisely because of the center of the storm that if he took a step back, it would be the result of being smashed to pieces.

Of course, if he can maintain the status quo, at least he can earn a decent marriage for Lin Daiyu.Now that so many people come up to make friends, they can deal with it first, and there is no need to refuse too early.

"I've also heard about it," Lin Daiyu said, her brows frowned slightly, "My brother is naturally capable, and he can be praised by the emperor even in Pingliang. But the case of Suo'etu involved too many people, and my father also said , and now Chaoshang is doing a big cleanup. I don't know the inside story, so naturally I have to ask him for advice before making arrangements."

Lin Daiyu had a good impression of this nanny who accompanied her and taught her all the time.She knew Mammy Xiong's temperament, and she also knew what she meant.

Mammy Xiong nodded, "Well, yes, it's very good to do so."

Daiyu smiled, picked up a pen and continued to copy the gift list.In winter, Qingqing always likes to sleep in for a while. She is still young, so her family is naturally more indulgent to her.It was almost noon now, when she was carried by Fusang to Lin Daiyu.

"Sister, is brother back?" Qingqing rubbed her eyes, slipped out of Fusang's hand after entering the house.She sat obediently on the stool and was fed chicken porridge by Fusang.

"My brother just sent a letter saying that he won't be able to come back this year." Seeing Qingqing's persistent questioning, Lin Daiyu felt that she couldn't hide anymore.

As soon as she finished speaking, Qingqing's big eyeballs were filled with tears, which fell onto the porridge.The pouted Qingqing didn't want to eat any more, so she threw herself on Lin Daiyu's lap, "Why?"

"Brother is busy, but my sister-in-law brought you a gift, do you want to take a look at it?" Lin Daiyu wiped her tears for her, "Don't cry." She didn't take it to heart. She often looks for her brother, but she has no choice but to be vague.

Hearing that there was a gift, Qingqing shook her head, and wiped away her tears handsomely, "Yes!" She took the initiative to ask Fushang to bring a bowl, and obediently finished the porridge before going to open the gift with Daiyu.

What Lin Ji prepared for the two younger sisters were all novel gadgets. Lin Daiyu claimed that she was already an adult, so naturally she would not compete with Qingqing, and let her choose what she liked.The age difference between the two is also a bit big, so what Lin Ji prepared was naturally suitable for them.

Lin Daiyu often receives presents from her brother, and seeing these now, apart from being happy and moved, she is no longer as excited as before.On the contrary, it is the chores at home, as if they are not completed, there is a sense of satisfaction.From being flustered and unfamiliar at the beginning to practice makes perfect now, Lin Daiyu feels that she can go further.

The new year is coming soon, there are many things at the end of the year, but there are rules to follow, she just needs to follow the gourd and draw a ladle, and she can always arrange it.Coupled with the fact that there were several people watching with a good eye, there was nothing wrong with it.

The Jia family moved to the suburbs of Beijing, and now Wang Xifeng and the two masters of the Jia family are still in prison.Mrs. Jia naturally sent people to look at it every day, and gave some things and money.Jia's property has been searched and inspected, and there is not much left. Now it is living on the old lady's savings and a little bit of family business passed down from the ancestors.

Mrs. Xing did not dare to dislike her, she was not from a good background, and she had no right to speak in Jia's mansion.And Mrs. Wang did not dare to be presumptuous without the support of Wang Ziteng.Today's Jia family is firmly in the hands of the old lady.

At the beginning of its glory days, except for Shi Xiangyun and Xue Baochai, Mrs. Xing brought her niece Xing Xiuyan to live in the Grand View Garden, and Li Wan brought Li Wen and Li Qi.Now that the building is crumbling, it is natural that the birds are flying separately.The Li family was fine, they took Li Wen and Li Qi over there, poor Xing Xiuyan, who came to seek refuge with Madam Xing, naturally lived with Madam Xing in Zhuangzi.

Lin Daiyu had a good impression of this girl. When she visited the old lady in Zhuangzi years ago, she brought her a lot of things.Now that the end of the new year is approaching, Lin Daiyu thinks of the hard-working old lady Jia, so she wants to take some time to visit her.

Now Jia's family is a poor family, but after rectification, this Zhuangzi looks a little more like a house.Now that each family lives in its own yard, Mrs. Jia is no longer in charge.The two daughters-in-law took care of their own courtyard affairs. Li Wan took Jia Lan, Ping'er took Qiaojie, Sanchun and Baoyu, all living in the main courtyard where old lady Jia lived.

The two masters did not return home, and the two wives naturally couldn't straighten up. Now it is Jia Lian who is the one who has established a family.After this blow, Jia Lian grew up a lot, and Jia Baoyu also improved a lot.The two of them were originally flowers in the greenhouse, but now that the wind and rain were blowing, they straightened their backs and made some progress.

When Lin Daiyu arrived, several girls were accompanying Mrs. Jia in the side hall, and Li Wan was leading them doing embroidery work.Now that the number of people in the family is reduced, although it is not necessary for them to do work to supplement the family income, but all their clothes are divided into their own hands, so naturally they have to do it themselves.

Originally Xichun wanted to go back to her home, but the old lady thought she was pitiful and knew Jia Jing's nature, so she naturally disagreed.Now she is also living in this village, but she has grown close to Mrs. Jia in her sudden heart, which makes her feel a little more fireworks.

"It's lively here for my ancestors. I'm deserted at home, so I just want to be with my ancestors." As soon as Daiyu entered the room, she went straight to sit next to Mrs. Jia, "Sisters, rest for a while. I brought everyone presents, all from Jiangnan."

As he spoke, he pulled a few girls to look at the things she brought. In addition to seasonal snacks and other items, there were also ready-made clothes, which were all made into fashionable styles according to everyone's habits and sizes.Lin Daiyu smiled and introduced various fabrics to them. The silks and satins in the south of the Yangtze River are naturally famous, but these are not expensive varieties, and everyone readily accepts them.

Shi Xiangyun handed the things to Cui Ling behind him, and followed Dai Yu step by step, hesitant to speak, which was very pitiful.
