Chapter 100: Lin Zi'an Strikes Treasurer Du's Rescue
A lot of congratulatory people came to the village chief's house. In the countryside, there were not many particularities. It was enough for men and women to sit separately. Of course, the elders were the honored guests. They were arranged at the front table with the village chief Lin Changqing and his second son Lin.
Hongwen sat with him. Aunt Li accompanied the female guest, and she was as gentle as jade.
Just now, he sat at another table with the girls. Of course, there were many other tables. Lin Changqing arranged for close relatives to accompany him. Although Lin Zhu was young, he was also the head of the family, and Aunt Li believed that she was responsible for the marriage.
The person who contributed the most, so she was also placed at his table.
There was nothing wrong with him at first, but I don't know where Lin Feng, the clan elder, had a problem. Halfway through the meal, he suddenly winked at Lin Zian, who was sitting at the table not far away. After Lin Zian saw this, he swayed
He stood up, holding a wine glass, and walked towards the main table. With the strength of his wine, he toasted to the village chief Lin Changqing and Lin Hongyuan. On such a happy day, Lin Changqing also
I didn’t want to cause any unpleasantness, so I drank with all comers. “Changqing, you have to drink a few more drinks today. Hongyuan is getting married. Next year he will go to high school to be a scholar, and in a few years to go to high school. Then we will
I have to call you Mr. Lin. Haha." Lin Feng and Lin Changqing said haha. Although Lin Changqing hoped so in his heart, he still had to say a few words of humility, "Where, where, I wish you good luck."
"Yes, brother Changqing, your good fortune is yet to come." Lin Zian also said something nice under the influence of alcohol, trying to ease the estranged relationship that was caused by stealing watermelon. While talking, he left his seat and gave
Aunt Li also toasted a glass of wine, "Sister-in-law, I also toast you a glass of wine." Although Aunt Li toasted
I was a little embarrassed, but I still picked up the cup and took a sip. Thinking that he should go back, unexpectedly, he actually walked up to Lin Zhu and said, "Hey, where is Miss Xiaozhu sitting here? I just said you can take it outside.
It's my fault for being stingy in bringing a piece of fabric to congratulate you, and I'm here to apologize to you."
After he said this, Aunt Li's face changed instantly, and the faces of several elderly women at the table with her flashed with gossipy looks. Lin Zhu put down his chopsticks. He stood up and stared at Lin Zian.
.Lin Zian’s face turned red because of drinking, and he couldn’t see any changes. However, under Lin Zhu’s direct gaze, he
There was panic in his eyes, and his mouth was slightly open. Just when he was about to speak, his mother-in-law suddenly rushed over from the side and said in a mouthful, "Miss Xiaozhu, our leader is stupid and has a straight heart. He can't speak, but you must do it."
Don't take it to heart. Please don't hold a grudge against him, but you can't let a dog bite him again."
The people around who heard her spoke looked at Lin Zhu with all kinds of meanings in their eyes. They had a good impression of her before, but now in their eyes, Lin Zhu has become a villain who cares about everything and will retaliate for every slight. And even worse.
In the eyes of others, she has become a person who maliciously lets dogs hurt people. If they let them continue talking, Lin Zhu's reputation will be ruined. Li Da
The mother was furious. "What nonsense are you talking about? How could Xiaozhu be that kind of person? You are too much." At this time, Aunt Li wanted to use a big stick to drive them both out. But this was her son's wedding banquet, so something would happen.
Come on, it’s you who is ugly. At the moment of dilemma, Chang’s mother suddenly came to Lin Zhu with Fu Dou’er in her arms, “Girl, shopkeeper Du is here.”
Lin Zhu walked up to Lin Zian and his wife and gave them a cold look, "It seems that the lesson learned last time was too lenient." After saying that, he took Chang's mother and apologized to Aunt Li, and then went out.
.The village chief Lin Changqing at the table next to him also noticed something was wrong here. He left the main table, came to Lin Zhu, and said to Lin Zian and his wife, "You go back, and take back the gifts you brought. This
You are not welcome." The scene suddenly became quiet.
Lin Zian and the other two's expressions suddenly fell. They did not expect that Lin Changqing would defend Lin Zhu so much. After he did this, the words they had said before to slander Lin Zhu had no effect at all. On the contrary, the two of them
His reputation in the village will become even worse.
"Village Chief Lin, congratulations. Mr. Du came here uninvited. Please don't blame Mr. Lin." A voice outside the door broke the awkwardness at this moment. Lin Changqing saw that it was Mu who had come to collect Lin Zhu's watermelon.
Shopkeeper Du of Yueshang Bank was Lin Changqing who was responsible for handling the watermelon business with him at that time, so the two of them knew each other. There was also a boy behind him.
"Congratulations to Mr. Lin on your wedding. Mr. Du is here to share the joy. It's not a small gesture, but I hope you will accept it." The boy took out a bulging purse and handed it to Lin Changqing.
At this time, Lin Changqing was a little stunned. Even if he knew him, he didn't come to congratulate his son on his marriage. It was obviously for Lin Zhu's face, but the heavy purse in his hand showed that Lin Zhu's face was very high.
of."
Shopkeeper Du is so polite, please sit down and have a glass of wedding wine." Since someone is trying to save Lin Zhu's face, Lin Changqing will not miss this opportunity to clear Lin Zhu's name, pouring a full glass of wine, "For Xiao Zhu's
To save face, let’s do it one by one.”
"Yes, it's thanks to Miss Tuolin that Du can come and join in the fun." After saying this, he toasted a glass of wine with Lin Changqing. Everyone present was dumbfounded. As soon as Shopkeeper Du appeared, his imposing manner showed that he
He is not an ordinary person. No matter which one of the people from Linjia Village sitting here is mentioned, he does not have the same aura as him. They are different from the gentle and elegant scholars like Lin Hongyuan.
I felt that when he mentioned Lin Zhu again, everyone in the village understood that this man came to congratulate the village chief because of Lin Zhu. As soon as the person in charge of registering the congratulations opened the wallet, he almost flashed a total of twenty taels of silver.
Blinded everyone's eyes. Everyone looked at Lin Zhu differently. They didn't expect that such a person actually knew her, a little orphan girl, and it seemed that they had a good relationship with her.
Although Shopkeeper Du was a shopkeeper in Muyue Trading Company, he was only below Lu Mingtao. He had seen countless people in the world, and of course he was incomparable to these country people. He stretched out his hand to the young boy behind him,
A rectangular box was delivered to him. He opened the box and revealed the langhao pen inside, "This is the langhao pen from Huzhou. I wish Mr. Lin good luck in high school next year." "I dare not take this seriously, little one."
Sister Zhu has already given me a set of the four treasures of the study. Your langhao pen is a top-grade Hu pen, and it is something that a young student should never want." Lin Hongyuan declined repeatedly. That pen cannot be bought for twenty taels of silver. "It's just a pen.
That's all, Mr. Lin, don't worry about it. Although it's a little inferior to Miss Lin's one, please don't dislike it, just accept it." At this time, the whole audience was in an uproar, and Lin Zian's previous slander was completely overturned.
Except for the village chief and his family, everyone present was stunned by Lin Zhu's generosity. Only then did everyone realize that Lin Zhu was such a low-key person, and they also thought of the rice-raising methods and watermelon cultivation that Lin Zhu taught the people of Linjia Village without asking for anything in return.
The method of raising seedlings, Lin Zhu has proven its role in his own field. Looking at the abundant watermelon harvest in Lin Zhu’s field, the people of Linjia Village
Why worry about not getting rich, so it is not an exaggeration to say that Lin Zhu is the great benefactor of Linjia Village. Now someone actually cares about this in vain, not only ruining her reputation, but also confusing right and wrong and slandering her. The way everyone looks at Lin Zian and his wife is completely wrong.
Their eyes were full of disgust and contempt. Seeing that the situation was not good, the two of them left in despair, not even taking the congratulatory gift that Lin Changqing said she would return to him.
Shopkeeper Du finished drinking the wine and sending out the gifts. He turned to Lin Changqing and said, "Village Chief Lin, I still need to ask Miss Lin Zhu for help with some things. I wonder if Miss Lin Zhu can take the first step." "Of course."
Lin Changqing nodded hurriedly.
So Lin Zhu took Chang's mother, shopkeeper Du took the boy, and the four of them left the village chief's house.
"Thank you so much, Shopkeeper Du, for letting you spend the money." Lin Zhu bowed lightly.
"Hey, Miss Lin is so polite. There will be many places where we can rely on Village Chief Lin in the future, so it can't be said to be a waste of money. But I'm afraid Miss Lin Zhu's kindness was put to the wrong place." There was something in Shopkeeper Du's words. Of course Lin Zhu understood what he meant.
It's just that what happened in Linjia Village was something she did intentionally. Even if the people in Linjia Village spread all these methods, she wouldn't be afraid, as long as the most important things are always in her hands.
"It doesn't matter," Lin Zhu shook his head, "Shopkeeper Ibidu understands the principle of hoping for the most valuable things better than I do."
"Haha," Shopkeeper Du smiled, "Miss Lin is wise."
The group returned to Lin Zhu's house. Hei Dou'er had been staying at home. Hearing the noise at the door, he quickly came out to greet them. When he saw shopkeeper Du and the boy who did not belong to this home, he growled at them. Now Hei Dou'er's voice happened.
The change is no longer a barking sound, but a roaring sound coming from deep in the throat, which is extremely penetrating and appears to be more threatening.
"Heidou'er, be good, they are not bad people." Lin Zhu patted its head and comforted it. Ever since the melon thief appeared, Heidou'er was full of hostility towards everyone who came uninvited unless Lin Zhu said something.
It will let you go, otherwise, it will keep staring at the visitor.
"Miss Lin, this dog is really good. It retains its wild nature and is very loyal." This was not the first time that Shopkeeper Du met Hei Dou'er, but every time he met, Lin Zhu had to be by his side so that he could enter Lin Zhu's house.
At home. "Miss Lin, Mr. Du has an unkind request. I hope you can agree to it."
"Shopkeeper Du wants Hei Dou'er?" Lin Zhu obviously saw his appreciation and love for Hei Dou'er. "No, no, no, how can Du take over people's favor? I want to say, if Hei Dou'er has offspring,
, I hope Miss Lin can agree to transfer one to me. The price is up to you." Shopkeeper Du is also a dog lover, so
Of course a dog that understands human nature will be greedy, but he knows that Heidouer can no longer be tamed by anyone except Lin Zhu. He has recognized Lin Zhu as his lifelong master. (To be continued. If you like this work
