Lin Ji's struggling life

By the time Zhang Ruolin entered the house, Lin Daiyu had already learned about the situation of the Zhang family from Banqian.Things that were difficult to inquire about before are now clear to her heart, and Lin Daiyu is still full of confidence in her future life.

After washing and washing, she sat on the bed and waited quietly for Zhang Ruolin to return to the room.There were laughter and laughter outside, and the lights were brightly lit. She was in a daze in the room.The door was pushed open, and it was Zhang Ruolin who came in. With a red face and a smell of alcohol all over his body, he stumbled into the room with the help of the servant, and sat on the chair without moving.

After waving away the person who wanted to help, Lin Daiyu approached him, but she was so fainted by the smell of alcohol on his body that she almost wanted to retreat.When her hand just touched Zhang Ruolin, she suddenly reversed her position and was pulled into his arms by Zhang Ruolin.Lin Daiyu exclaimed, and was carried into the bathroom by him.

The guards outside listened to the movement inside, looked at each other and smiled at the same time, and then looked away in embarrassment.The red candle was shining brightly, and I didn't sleep all night.

The next day, after they washed leisurely, they went to Xu's yard to pay her respects after having breakfast.Mrs. Xu didn't pay too much attention, so she gave a meeting gift and took someone to greet Mrs. Zhang.Mrs. Zhang is not in good health now, and she spends her days lying on the bed. She also heard the good news about her grandson, and she is eager to meet her new grandson-in-law.

The old lady Zhang was naturally very satisfied with Lin Daiyu, she gave her a big meeting gift, and hugged her in her arms and loved her very much.The old man loves this granddaughter-in-law very much, she has always loved Lin Ji, and Daiyu also knows how to be courteous, and will always come to pay her respects when she comes and goes, she is a very good child.

The new life started like this, and Lin Daiyu felt that it seemed to be the same as before, except that several people slept with her at night.The days passed like this, Zhang Ruolin was on duty in the Imperial Academy, and occasionally he would take her out for fun when he took a rest.On weekdays, if you have time, you can follow Mrs. Xu to visit the twins at Lin's house, and get in touch with sister-in-law by the way. Don't live too comfortably.

On the contrary, Zarafon'a's life has become difficult.After the twins learned to walk, they fell in love with this sport. They were full of curiosity about the big house of the Lin family and always liked to drill around.The growth of a child is always accompanied by the care of the parents. In Lin Ji's absence, even with the help of Lin Ruhai, Zarafon'a is too busy.

While they were babbling, Lin Ji over there ushered in an opportunity.

Lin Ji's actions in Jiaozhou, Shandong were completed under the supervision of the emperor. Of course, the matter of building a wharf in Jiaozhou was also handed over to Kangxi's desk.Kangxi didn't pay much attention at first, but when Lin Ji's former fleet captain, Lin Bei, brought a fleet back from America, he was coveted by the full load of spices and jade.

At this point, he finally understood what Lin Ji meant when he said there was gold overseas.And the nautical charts brought back by these people are also unprecedentedly detailed, and various forces have mobilized one after another, wanting to get a copy.And this has also become one of Lin Ji's weights, helping him to carry out his work in Jiaozhou smoothly.

Now Lin Ji's grasp of Jiaozhou has surpassed all forces, and he has entered the water transport in a permeable way, combining sea and river transport to expand a larger market.The Cao Gang brothers who have been active on the water all year round are naturally more suitable for managing the fleet than the people recruited by Lin Ji, and Lin Ji divided his original fleet into two, using Shandong to attract everyone's attention, and let Lin Bei lead He led his confidant brothers back to Guangzhou, and then from Guangzhou to the small island where he originally settled.

Such an operation scares this group of people.Now, for the sake of the Jiaozhou port and related overseas interests, the entire capital and Shandong are disturbed, and there are also changes in Jiangnan.The result of everyone wanting to get involved is that Kangxi cut the mess quickly and divided the matter among several top families.Lin Ji also retired, and was exceptionally transferred to the capital before his term of office expired.

Kangxi is really showing his taste now, this child is relying on his own love, hoping to go to other places to flex his muscles.He has indeed done a lot of good things during his years in office.Because of this, at the end of the year, when Lin Ji returned to Beijing, the entire capital city welcomed him.

Everyone wanted to ask Lin Tanhua if there was any way to get rich.

When Lin Ji returned to Beijing, he naturally went straight to the Lin family.To be honest, he was not far from home this time, but it was the most anxious day. After learning that Zarafon'a had successfully given birth to twins, his heart was pierced like a knife.He felt aggrieved for Zarafon'a. They had been married for more than four years, but they didn't spend even half of the time together.

He left shortly after she gave birth to her daughter, and didn't even attend her daughter's full moon banquet.It was even worse when the sons were born, and he even missed the birth, full moon, and one-year-old of the sons.He was hardly there when Zarafonah needed him most.

Feeling timid due to the proximity of his hometown, when he arrived at the gate of Lin's residence, he didn't dare to go in when he saw the house decorated with lanterns and festoons for the New Year.After all, it was Lin Butler who arranged it well. The person who sent out to see the situation saw his young master at the door of his house, and naturally cheered.Everyone was very happy, and the servants passed the news one by one, and everyone knew that Lin Ji had arrived home.

Lin Ruhai was in the study with his grandchildren. When Lin Ji entered the room, before he could salute Lin Ruhai, Doudou hugged his thigh.

"I know, you are Daddy!" Doudou knew this person, and her mother would always show them the small portrait of Yubanxuan to identify him. Ji, the little guy rushed over, "Daddy, you are back, I have been waiting for a long time." It seems that most of my life has passed.

When the twins saw their elder sister hugging Lin Ji and calling for their father, they also came over and looked at him curiously.Lin Ji is full of travel and dust, but he can't hide his handsomeness. As he grows older, he has matured a lot. Seeing his knife-like face, Lin Ruhai is also a little emotional.

"Just come back, let's go see your wife." Lin Ruhai didn't have time to say anything to him in the future, so he told Lin Ji to rush to the backyard.

Zarafon'a is dealing with housework, and is busy at the end of the year, including inventory counting, registration and bookkeeping, harvest counting, manpower arrangements, and so on.In the past few days, she sent her children to her father-in-law to help him take care of them, and she met the stewards from all over the yard by herself.

Lin Ji handed over most of his property to Zarafon'a, who was managed by a special person, but audits were required at the end of each month and at the end of each year.Now Zarafon'a is meeting the housekeepers in the yard and listening to their report on the harvest of the village.

When Lin Ji entered the room, she was stunned behind the curtain. The account books on the table fell to the ground with her movements, making a loud crash.

He waved his hand and told the women to go down, and Zhang's mother led the maids to leave, leaving time for the couple.

Zarafon'a opened the curtain and came out. She already knew the news of Lin Ji's return, and she was a little surprised when she saw it suddenly, but now she is fine.As soon as Lin Ji stretched out his hand, he hugged him, and hugged his limp body in his arms, with infinite sighs in his heart, full of satisfaction.

"Okay, it's not good to be promiscuous in the daytime, come on, take a break." Zarafon'a pushed the somewhat forgetful husband, and pushed him away with a blushing face.The lazy afternoon sun shines through the glazed window into the low building, and Lin Ji is sat down by Zarafeng Ala, leaning on the soft pillow, the fatigue from the long journey emerges, and he feels drowsy.

Because of the handshake between the two, Zarafon'a had no choice but to tell Zhang's mother to let the women lower their volumes, but Lin Ji slept very soundly with the sound of whispering.After finally waiting for Zarafon'a to deal with these miscellaneous matters, he turned around and stared at Lin Ji intently.

It's been a long time since I saw my husband, looking at his still beautiful face, the blue stubble slightly exposed on the chin, and the slightly dark circles under the eyes, I couldn't help but reached out and stroked his cheek.Lin Ji felt disturbed by something in his sleep, stretched out his hand to grab him, and pulled him into his arms. Smelling the strange but familiar smell, he fell asleep peacefully.

In order not to disturb him, Zarafon'a had no choice but to lie still, and after a while, he dozed off.

Dinner was naturally served in the main room. Seeing Lin Ji who had lost a lot of weight, Lin Ruhai still felt a little distressed, and kept bringing him vegetables.The twins have joined the ranks of the dinner table, sitting on a special high stool, being fed by the wet nurse mouthful by mouthful.All kinds of delicious ingredients cut into puree were boiled in one pot, and the delicious meat porridge was eaten by the two children without looking up.

Doudou sat between Lin Ji and Zarafunga, looking left and right from time to time, very happy.Qingqing was also happy, but after all, she was a big girl, she restrained a lot, and the dimples on her face were still hanging.

"I don't know if Yu'er can take the time to come back. The busier it is at the end of the year." Although she can often see her daughter, Lin Ruhai still feels that she can't get enough of it. Take your daughter-in-law to Zhang's house to see the old lady, and ask about Daiyu's arrangement by the way."

But fortunately, the family Daiyu went to knew the basics, and there was Zarafon'a as a bridge between the two families, which was already a thousand times better than others.Lin Ji nodded naturally. He may not have seen his sister for a long time, so he should go and see her.Furthermore, he and Zhang Tingyu often exchanged letters, and many things were mentioned in secret. It would be great if they could talk face to face.

Speaking of which, Zhang Tingyu was the most congenial with him in the Zhang family.Now that he hastily returned to Beijing, his whereabouts are unknown, he was afraid that he wanted to ask this uncle for advice.

After the meal, Zarafeng'a and Lin Ji took the children back to the yard to bond with each other. After a while, the twins were captured by their father with toys.Looking at Lin Ji who looked like a big child, Zarafon'a secretly smiled.It was really the first time for her to see Lin Ji like this, it was a bit novel.

After finally coaxing the child to sleep, it is naturally the private time of the couple, and it is naturally a night of soft spring under the hibiscus tent...
