The autumn rain pattered down, hitting the remaining grape leaves outside, making a constant sound, which sounded as lively as a heavy rain.
Lin Jinrong was woken up by the sound of rain. When he opened his eyes and saw the dim light in the room, he couldn't help but secretly thought that he had slept long enough. The room was quiet, except for the sound of rain. He couldn't hear anything. The quilt was warm and fragrant. Lin Jinrong was very happy.
I couldn't bear to get up, but I felt a little hungry suddenly, so I sat up and wanted to call someone. Just as I was about to speak, I heard Xia Ye's voice, low and deep: "What should I do?"
Dou'er said softly: "I don't know either."
Xia Ye sighed softly: "Although it is for the sake of grandma, it still makes people feel uneasy. I have never done such a thing before, and it is so embarrassing. I am afraid that if grandma finds out, she will send us back immediately."
Dou'er didn't say anything for a long time and then said: "Sister, let's go first. If you don't want to do it, you can do it. Let's wait for grandma to pass this time before talking."
Xia Ye added: "Otherwise, it doesn't matter if we go back. As long as grandma, mother and son are safe, it is a great good. This is the most important thing at the moment."
There was silence outside for a long time before I heard the door ring softly, as if someone had gone out.
Lin Jinrong hugged the quilt and stared at the gray-lit window for a long time before calling out: "Who is outside?"
Dou'er walked in softly, stood in front of the bed and asked with some trepidation: "Grandma, did you sleep well?"
Lin Jinrong said calmly: "I didn't sleep well. I was woken up by the sound of rain and voices."
Dou'er seemed to have been poked by a needle, and immediately stood up straight, looking at Lin Jinrong tremblingly, unable to find a word to say.
Why is it so difficult for this honest girl to find someone useful? Lin Jinrong sighed softly and said, "Tell me. What's going on?"
Dou'er pursed her lips, her eyes wandering wildly, and it took her a long time to squeeze out a smile: "It's nothing..."
Lin Jinrong looked at her, and said angrily with a serious face: "You still want to hide it from me? You silly girl! Don't you know that Xia Ye told you this on purpose, knowing that he couldn't hide it, and deliberately dragged you into the trap?
Yes? You guys came together to deceive me, didn’t you want to piss me off to death? I’ve loved you in vain!"
Seeing her rare harsh words, Dou'er couldn't help but startled. Without caring about anything else, he knelt down on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "Grandma, please calm down and don't hurt your body. As long as you are nice, I can say anything."
." This child was so difficult to come by, and the second master wished he could support his grandma. If there was a misfortune, the people in this house would not be able to afford it.
Lin Jinrong reluctantly suppressed his anger and said coldly: "It depends on what you do."
Dou'er bit her lip, looked at her expression and whispered: "Grandma, that's what's going on. You've been a little overjoyed these days, and the second master is very worried..." He continued to speak, but he was ready at any time.
As long as Lin Jinrong's expression is slightly wrong, he will stop immediately.
Unexpectedly, after finishing speaking, Lin Jinrong just listened, with difficulty distinguishing between joy and anger, and even his posture did not change. He only asked: "You said, the shop on Panlou Street has been given to Lu Liang by the second master."
Subletted?"
Dou'er became more and more unsure of her thoughts and said cautiously: "Yes."
Lin Jinrong added: "The goods and the people sent by the third master had actually arrived two days ago? But they were stopped by the second master, who put the people living outside and planned to sell all the goods?
"
Dou'er was about to shed tears: "Yes."
Lin Jinrong stopped talking and remained silent for a long time before getting out of bed: "Watch me wash up and get the car ready outside. I want to go out."
On a late autumn day, even though she felt cold in her jacket, Dou'er felt that her whole body was covered with sweat, and she felt like needles pricking her body. She hurriedly advised: "Grandma, it's cold outside in the autumn, and it's raining. You're inconvenienced, and it's really difficult for you.
It's not easy to go out. If you really want to go out, wait until the second master comes back and talk about it, okay?"
Cherry peeked through the curtain, immediately shrank back, and quickly ran to call Aunt Sha. Lin Jinrong saw clearly and sneered: "So now you are not my girl."
Dou'er said honestly: "Why did grandma say that?"
Lin Jinrong said lazily: "If you are my girl, no one listens to what I say, so I will still listen to you. I will do whatever you want to do, and I will accept how you help others deceive me."
Dou'er couldn't help it and finally shed tears, but she couldn't utter a single word of defense. After all, she was really unjust. Lu Mian ordered Lu Liang and his wife to do this, and also kidnapped Xia Ye and his wife.
That's right. If Xia Ye hadn't seen that the goods were about to be sold by Lu Yan, and was worried that he wouldn't be able to survive the day when the Dong Chuang incident happened, so he came to her specifically to seek advice, she wouldn't have known about it.
Lin Jinrong knew that Dou'er was honest and responsible, but she didn't dare to cry when she saw her crying. She didn't say a word to defend herself, so her heart actually softened. But since she was reborn, she always hopes to do everything to the best of her ability.
The land is in his own hands. Although he has good intentions, he absolutely cannot tolerate such deception. He said: "That's all, I know it's not your fault, but you should be more cautious when things happen." Wait for Dou'er.
In reply, he gave a series of instructions: "Immediately ask Shuangquan to call Xia Ye in, and ask Shuangfu to go outside to ask someone to prepare the car, and then prepare water for me to wash up. The rest is my and the second master's business, and has nothing to do with you."
Dou'er was still about to hesitate, but Lin Jinrong glanced at him: "Don't disappoint me. I am your serious master." These words were serious enough, but Lin Jinrong really couldn't care less. She couldn't imagine that a room full of people would originally
They are all her people, and now they all listen to Lu Mian's arrangements and ignore her thoughts and opinions.
Dou'er's face turned pale, and there was wind at her feet. She quickly went out and called Shuangquan and Shuangfu. After giving them instructions one by one, she went back to the room to help Lin Jinrong wash and dress.
Lin Jinrong had just finished packing when she heard someone panting outside the curtain, but it was Grandma Sha who came in panting heavily, her hair and shoulders were wet, and her face was full of anxiety: "Grandma, are you going out?
"
"Mommy, you're an elderly person. It's still raining outside. Why are you in such a hurry? What should you do if you catch a cold or slip? I'm counting on you to help me keep an eye on the people in this house." Lin Jinrong
Originally, he didn't intend to run out without telling Aunt Sha, so he only glanced at Yingtao lightly. Yingtao shrank and slowly slipped into the corner against the wall.
Aunt Sha was still in the kitchen guarding the cook to get Lin Jinrong supplements. When she saw Yingtao hurriedly running through the rain and shouting that Lin Jinrong had to go out, she didn't know what happened, so she was frightened and ran back.
.When I heard Lin Jinrong say this and saw her attitude, I felt relieved and said with a smile: "Grandma is right, it's raining outside, it's wet and slippery, so it's really not good to go out.
Nice weather. If you are tired of staying indoors, how about waiting for the second master Shen Shi to come home and ask the second master to accompany you out? "
Lin Jinrong said: "He is quite busy. After finishing his official work, he is also busy with family matters, so I won't cause him any trouble. If grandma is free, she will accompany me on this trip. If not, she will stay at home and wait for the second master.
You might as well come back and talk to him."
Aunt Sha looked at Lin Jinrong's expression carefully, wondering whether today's matter could be changed.
Lin Jinrong smiled softly, stood up and walked outside: "It seems that grandma is not free anymore."
It couldn't be stopped. It couldn't be stopped at all. Aunt Sha looked at the sky and made an instant decision: "Please wait a moment, grandma, I will go change my clothes and wait for you to go out."
Lin Jinrong took advantage of the situation and sat down: "Tingtao, go wait for grandma to change clothes."
Aunt Sha paused and sighed helplessly. It seemed that delaying this move had no effect at all.
Lin Jinrong looked at Xia Ye who was kneeling by the curtain indifferently: "I won't tell you more. I'm going out now. I believe you and Song Peng both know where to go and who to look for."
Xia Ye didn't dare to say more, kowtowed quietly three times, stood up and said, "I'll make arrangements right now."
Lin Jinrong waved her hand, supported Dou'er's men to get off the Ruyi Duo, and walked towards the gate through the stagnant water. Aunt Sha quickly ran over from the other side holding Tao'er: "Grandma, please go slower, wait for me, old slave."
."
Only after the master and servants arrived at the second gate, Lu Liang came up to stop him: "Grandma, where are you going? It's wet, slippery, and raining outside. The second master will be back soon. You might as well wait for him to come back."
How about going?"
Lin Jinrong looked at Song Peng who was standing in front of the carriage with lowered eyebrows and eyes, and sneered slightly: "I didn't know that I can't even go out, and even the slaves dare to stop me!"
Lu Liang was very embarrassed, but he also knew the reason. He couldn't help but look at Aunt Sha inquiringly. When he saw Aunt Sha winking at him, he suddenly understood and said hurriedly: "Please forgive me, grandma. I'm rude."
."
Lin Jinrong ignored him, walked past him and got into the carriage. When Aunt Sha, Xia Ye, and Dou'er also followed, she raised her voice and ordered: "Let's go."
Song Peng led the way, leading the carriage out of the alley, heading east and south towards the Qingfenglou Inn in Tianshui Lane.
Because of the lingering autumn rain, there were few pedestrians on the road, and there was no sound of drinking or selling everywhere. It was very quiet. The three women in the car carefully looked at Lin Jinrong's expressions, all full of worry. Fundamentally speaking, Lu Yan
It's wrong to hide it from her, but in the end it's for her own good. I wonder why she is so stubborn?
Lin Jinrong kept that batch of goods in her mind, so she didn't care what their thoughts and expressions were. Finally, she arrived at Qingfeng Building and parked the car on the street. Song Peng said: "Grandma, I'm going to find someone to come and answer."
Lin Jinrong said hurriedly: "Go quickly, go quickly."
Shaoqing and Song Peng came out holding an umbrella to protect a man in his forties. He stood in front of the car and saluted Lin Jinrong through the car curtain: "Little Yao Zhuo, please give my regards to my employer."
When Lin Jinrong heard that he called her the boss, he felt relieved: "It's raining, no courtesy. Is everything okay?"
Yao Zhuo understood: "Okay, I don't dare to make my own decisions. I always have to get orders from grandma or third master before I dare to do anything."
"You're very good." Lin Jinrong was suddenly in a good mood. Lin Shiquan was a reliable choice of people.
But I saw a shrewd-looking man in his thirties, wearing a long azure turban, a gold bandana, and a turban, walking out of the inn in the rain and saying, "Why, Brother Yao won't sell it to me."
, are you going to resell it to someone else?" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian () to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.) (To be continued)
