Chapter 130: The Third Master of the Lin Family

In a study room in a side courtyard of Huicheng Hou Mansion in the capital, a middle-aged man in his forty-seven or eighteen-year-old wearing a navy blue brocade robe was sitting on the main seat, listening to the report of the people below. "Master Hou,

There is a lot of polished rice sent to the palace this year, so I went to inquire and found out that the Mu Yue Trading Company sent a batch of special white rice, which the emperor particularly likes to eat. Most of the rice supplied to the palace this year has gone to the Mu Yue Trading Company."

"Mokitsu Trading Company? They don't seem to have been involved in this business before?" The middle-aged man twirled his beard and didn't know what he was thinking about. "Yes, it's just that this year they got a batch of high-quality watermelons, and the sales were quite popular, and many high-ranking officials

The nobles have all gone to rob them, but they are not the best ones. I heard that the best ones are not available on the market." The man then added, "It seems that they have received a sweet reward. The crops that are not harvested in the autumn have just come down, and they are going to do it.

Let’s start first.”

"That's a special watermelon. The emperor rewarded it and I've eaten it. It's very good." The middle-aged man said slowly, "Can't the merchants below us find a source of this kind of watermelon?" "Master Binghou, I once was a kid."

I also tried to find the source of goods from Muyue Trading Company, but the places where the caravans they went out were not the places where watermelons are produced. Please ask the Marquis to give me some more time. I will definitely figure it out."

"Before you could figure it out, the source of the goods had already been in the hands of Muzuki Trading Company." The middle-aged man's words frightened the man to shiver, "I will find it as soon as possible."

"Okay, they will definitely hide it deeply. Ask your subordinates to be more careful. If Muyue Trading Company's volume is larger next year, then the palace's share will have nothing to do with us. Do you understand?" The middle-aged man said.

The man's voice was not loud, but the man below was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat. "Yes, I understand. I'll leave first." "Well, go ahead."

The man came out of the back door of the Marquis of Hui'an Mansion, got on the carriage and drove directly to Zhao Ji Rice Shop, the largest rice shop in the city on East Street. "It's the shopkeeper." The man entered the rice shop with his chest raised and his head raised as soon as he got off the car.

Inside, there is no longer the groveling at the Hui'an Marquis' Mansion. "Well. The store is like

"What?" "Everything is fine in the store." A young man in Tsing Yi came forward to greet shopkeeper Zhao attentively. "Is there any news at Mu Yue Trading Company?" Shopkeeper Zhao asked. "His family has a very strange and weird wife.

Things." The boy thought for a while and said, "What are they?"

"It seems like red beans, mung beans, and potatoes." The boy paused and said, "Shopkeeper, I've only heard of red beans, mung beans, and what are these potatoes?" "Then did they say anything?

What are the potatoes used for?" Shopkeeper Zhao looked a little unhappy.

Okay. What new thing has Muzue Trading Company come up with? "I heard that it can be eaten as a meal or as a vegetable, but no one has eaten it, and few have bought it. There are many people who have seen it, hum.

Huh, tell them to play the game. Now there will be a good show." The boy said happily.

"I have heard of potatoes. It seems that last year the food journal bought a batch. Although some were sold, I heard that some people vomited and defecated for a long time after eating them. They also lost a lot of money. But

Not many people know about this." After shopkeeper Zhao said these words, the boy immediately understood what he meant and turned around and left.

Lin's Mansion is located in the city east of the capital. Most of these are places where princes and nobles live. Mr. Lin holds an important position in the court and is the Secretary of the Ministry of Households. It seems that he is not as noble as those princes and princes, but it is true.

Many ministers in the court wanted to follow the Lin family's path to get promoted and make a fortune. Among them was Dr. Zhang's second son Zhang Weize, but he failed.

In a house in the Lin Mansion, it is where the third master of the Lin family, Lin Shurui, and his family live. His wife, Mrs. Zhao, is the legitimate daughter of Zhao Cheng, Marquis of Huicheng. At this time, the two of them were in the study. "Third master, I heard that

Did the palace purchase the tribute rice this year from Muyue Trading Company? How dare they, a small trading company,

Even if you are not young, you dare to interfere with the food eaten by the nobles in the palace." Zhao is only twenty-six years old this year. She is seven years old, which is the most beautiful period for a woman. She has both the purity of a girl and the charm of a woman, and Zhao

She is very well maintained. If I didn't know her true age, I would have thought she was only twenty years old.

"This is the palace's decision, and Muyue Trading Company dare not disobey it. Please tell your father-in-law not to worry, they don't have much of this kind of rice, and the bulk is still with father-in-law." Lin Shurui heard what Zhao meant, but he and the Yue family

We have always had a good relationship with her, so I was willing to explain it to her. "So that's it. But it's really strange. They sold a special batch first.

Tasting watermelon has become really popular, and now they have got special white rice. I really don’t know how Muzue Trading Company has such ability, can find such good things, and also get the attention of the palace." Mrs. Zhao.

He tentatively asked his husband. Although Lin Shurui's official position was not high, he was an official of the fifth rank of Shaoqing of Guanglu Temple. This kind of matter happened to be within his jurisdiction.

"I heard that they just had a meal at Prince Qi's Mansion, so the emperor directly ordered Muyue Trading Company to deliver this kind of rice to the palace immediately. Some people below asked them where they got the rice.

But Muyue Trading Company is not a fool, so how could it say it?" Lin Shurui took a sip of tea and said, "Okay, you don't have to worry about this matter, I will tell you when there is news."

"Thank you, Third Master." Mrs. Zhao saluted him, stood up and continued, "As you know, my brothers from my mother's side are not living up to expectations, and my father is worried about this. Fortunately, he has some ancestral property, so he troubles my husband so much.

"My husband knows, so he will help his father-in-law, don't worry."

Come on." Lin Shurui gently took Zhao's hand, "Even if it's for you, I will do my best." "It's disgusting, it's all an old couple's business, Third Master, you're still so dishonest." Zhao

Feigning embarrassment, he took out his hand and patted Lin Shurui's chest gently.

"You are still the same as when my husband first met you." Lin Shurui's loving words made Ms. Zhao suddenly blush with embarrassment and wanted to hit him, but Lin Shurui grabbed her hand again and pulled her into his arms.

Here, Mrs. Zhao struggled gently, "Third Master, how can I meet others if I am seen by others? Let go. This is the study."

Lin Shurui hugged her for a while and then let go, "Fortunately we are in the study room. I won't let you go so easily next time." Although Mrs. Zhao had already given birth to three children, she couldn't bear it after hearing this.

He had a fever, "Third Master, if you let the old man know this, he will hate me even more. It's hard to do it now."

Please don't anger him again." Lin Shurui immediately calmed down when he mentioned this, "This has been a long time ago, and the woman has remarried long ago, and my father still holds on to her.

Lin Shurui punched the table bitterly, "I have wronged you." He helped Mrs. Zhao sit on a chair nearby.

"The third master treats me well, I have always kept it firmly in my heart. I have no grievances or grievances. Besides, since having those three children, the old man has slowly accepted me, and I am very satisfied."

"Yes, Third Master, please don't blame yourself for this, I will feel sorry for you." Zhao's gentle voice slowly penetrated into Lin Shurui's heart and held him tightly.

Listening to Zhao's words, Lin Shurui felt that his father had gone too far. How could Zhao, who was so considerate, not fall in his eyes, so he felt guilty and loving towards Zhao. Zhao looked at Lin Shurui

She looked thoughtful, but also secretly angry in her heart. She had been married for almost ten years, and the old man was still lukewarm towards her. How could she compare to that girl from the Wang family?

The person is gone, not to mention, that woman Wang Yaqin has long since married to the south of the Yangtze River, and even the daughter she gave birth to has been sent away long ago. No one even knows where she is now, and she has given birth to three children for Lin Shurui.

Why can't such a child fall in the eyes of the old man? After all, she is also the legitimate daughter of the Hou family, so she is much nobler than Wang Yaqin, who was born in a Hanlin Academy scholar's family.

Lin Shurui clapped her hand and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go see the children." After that, the two of them took each other to the yard of the three children.

"Dad, Mom, why are you here?" A little girl about ** years old, wearing a goose-yellow brocade dress, saw with sharp eyes Lin Shurui and Zhao who were coming together, and rushed towards Lin Shurui. Lin Shurui took advantage of the situation and took her

He hugged her and gently pinched her little nose with his hand, "Do we, Xue'er, miss our daddy?" "Of course we do, more than our brothers think." The little girl straightened her little nose and said proudly.

Said coquettishly.

"Okay, let's put her down." Mrs. Zhao gently pulled Lin Shurui's arm, "You are so old, and you still want your father to hold her. Are you embarrassed?" Mrs. Zhao wiped her daughter's forehead with a handkerchief.

Sweating, "Why are you so sweaty after playing so much? Go wipe it off quickly and change clothes. If you catch a cold, you will have to take hard medicine." "Dad, wait for me. I'll go change clothes and come back."

Please play with me again."

Seeing her daughter walking away quickly, Mrs. Zhao smiled helplessly and complained to Lin Shurui, "It's because the third master is too spoiled to her that he makes her so little." "Is this the best for my daughter?

, I see, no one else is as popular as our Xue'er." Mrs. Zhao ignored Lin Shurui's self-promotion and took the lead to walk to the rooms of her two sons. By the way, she asked the servants in the yard, "The two of them are

What are you doing, young master?"

"Madam, the eldest young master is studying, and the second young master is sleeping." Someone next to him answered. "Are you still studying?" Ms. Zhao was a little relieved and a little distressed. In order to please the old man, the little child had to become enlightened early.

, from time to time does not endorse or write, which makes her, a mother, very distressed. "It's a good thing that Bo'er is ambitious. You don't want him to just play around." Although Lin Shurui also feels sorry for his son, he is a man after all, and

That's how it came over too.

Thanks to Shannee for the peace charm. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
