"Mom, how is my sister?" Mrs. Lin came out of Dong Yuzhen's room and happened to run into Dong Wenbo who also came to visit. Since Dong Yuzhen was grounded, Dong Wenbo has been visiting her every day because he cannot enter the house and can only stay outside.
Just say a few words.
"It's okay, she is resting, so don't disturb her. Go sit in mother's room for a while." Mrs. Lin took Dong Wenbo back to the house.
"How is Bo'er's recent homework?" Mrs. Lin asked someone to pour a cup of tea for Dong Wenbo and brought over a plate of snacks.
"Well, sir, my article has improved a lot." Dong Wenbo nodded, picked up a piece of snack and ate it. "Slow down, don't choke." Mrs. Lin saw that he was eating happily and quickly put the teacup into his other cup.
In one hand.
"Hehe, the snacks here are still delicious." Dong Wenbo smiled and said, "Did that good sister from my sister send it here again?"
"Yes." Mrs. Lin nodded. "Mom, are you blaming her?" Dong Wenbo felt that when Lin Zhu was mentioned, Mrs. Lin's face looked a little bad.
"Why would Mom blame her? She is a good child. She thinks about Zhen'er in everything. Now she has asked someone to come in and visit Zhen'er. She is such a rare good child. Zhen'er is just angry at your father." Mrs. Lin.
No matter how much I resent Dong Jisheng, I will never speak ill of him in front of the children, but there are still some things that I want them to know.
"Do you know what happened in court that day?" Mrs. Lin asked.
"I heard something about it. It was said that some villagers from the countryside came to the court to make trouble and started to fight with others, and were finally kicked out." Dong Wenbo has been studying hard in school and doesn't know much about the outside world.
"Who told you this?" Mrs. Lin frowned.
"Oh, I heard it from the boy next to me." Dong Wenbo said nonchalantly. "What? Isn't that the case?" He saw Mrs. Lin's face turning ugly.
"Of course not." Mrs. Lin told him clearly what happened and the ins and outs of the matter. "This Li family has gone too far." Dong Wenbo also slammed the table angrily.
But when Mrs. Lin looked at him, she was not thinking about this matter, but about the people who often followed Dong Wenbo. That boy was obviously not suitable to be with Dong Wenbo anymore. She couldn't tell him the truth of the matter, but turned it upside down.
Black and white, confusing right and wrong. If things go on like this, it will lead Dong Wenbo to be ignorant and listen to one side and believe the other, which will be bad.
"Boer, have you ever thought about why the people around you tell lies to you?" Mrs. Lin's words made Dong Wenbo look at it seriously. "Mom, what do you mean?"
"Take this matter as an example. The truth of the matter has been changed beyond recognition by what he said, so such a person cannot stay by your side. Who put him by your side? Why do you do this? You have to ask
I have a calculation in my heart." Mrs. Lin spoke very straightforwardly, which made Dong Wenbo's heart move. "Mother, I will pay attention to it in the future."
"Also, you can't always immerse yourself in studying, you should go outside. Listen more and see more, so you can better distinguish things from wrong." Mrs. Lin's earnest words were not in vain. Dong Wenbo nodded seriously after hearing this.
, indicating that he has understood and understood what she meant.
"Someone will come to visit your sister tomorrow on behalf of Miss Lin. Do you want to meet her?" Mrs. Lin told him about someone handing him a greeting card. "I still don't want it. The person who comes must be a little girl. My son has met her."
It’s also inappropriate.”
"Haha, okay." Mrs. Lin looked at Dong Wenbo's sensible look with relief.
"Mom, my son is going back first." Dong Wenbo has been here for a long time. It's time to go back and study. "Okay, I'll ask you to pack some snacks for you to take home." Mrs. Lin played into Dong Wenbo's plan.
.
"Hehe. Thank you, mother." When Dong Wenbo heard that he could take it away, he looked at Mrs. Lin with a smile. "You, you are so old, but you still like to eat snacks." Although Mrs. Lin complained, she still asked people to give it to her.
He packed a big bag and took it away.
"Trash." In the Li family's study, Li Dabai scolded Butler Li who was standing in front of him, "If you can't handle such a small thing, what's the use of you?" Not only did he not get improved watermelon seeds, but he also asked
People found out that they were the ones who had tampered with it. Now it is impossible to get improved watermelon seeds from Lin Zhu.
Besides, no one expected that Lin Zhu would have a high-ranking official from the capital at her home, and she was actually on good terms with the eldest daughter of the county magistrate, so she knew everything.
"The villain did something bad, so I asked the master to punish him." Butler Li could only bow his head and admit his mistake, and hoped that Li Dabo would give him a lenient sentence. He also did not expect that Lin Zhu's family was not only not afraid of official duties, but also beat them until their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen.
Come back and be accused of such a disgusting person.
"Hmph, you're not just doing things poorly." Li Dabai snorted coldly. "Have you found out who is around that girl?"
"Sir, I found out that the old man is an imperial doctor in the capital, and he is not a powerful figure." In order to make up for his mistake, Butler Li worked hard on the people around Lin Zhu, but no matter how he checked,
We can only find out the identity of Dr. Zhang and his family, but not others.
"Isn't he a powerful person?" Li Dabai wanted to slap the steward Li to death, who was still not enlightened. The imperial doctor is not an official, but he has connections. Who doesn't have a headache or a fever, who can guarantee that he will not be sick for the rest of his life?
When someone is sick, the more powerful a person is, the more they cherish their own life, so most of them have good relations with imperial doctors.
Seeing that he had angered Li Dabai again, Butler Li quickly said to make amends, "Master, why don't you go to Lin Zhu's house to make amends to her?"
Butler Li's words made Li Dabai a little moved. He still wanted to get Linzhu's improved watermelon seeds, but would this kind of bowing his head be looked down upon? How would the people in Song County treat him? Li Dabai,
It's too shameful to bow your head to a little girl.
"No need," Li Dabai seemed to have made up his mind. "After those people are gone, we can deal with her. Hmm, I don't believe it. How long can a country girl be so powerful? Without those people, she is nothing."
"Aren't you going to apologize? There's no way." Li Dabai said in a deep voice,
"Let's avoid the edge first. Don't make any move while the old man is at Lin Zhu's house. As soon as he leaves, huh, Dong Jisheng won't let her go without us doing anything." But before Li Dabai saw Lin Zhu,
If his backer left, something would happen to his family, but that's a story for another day.
Lu Mingtao also approached Dong Jisheng at the same time.
"I'm Lu Mingtao, the chief steward of Muyue Trading Company, paying homage to the county magistrate." Lu Mingtao bowed his hands to Dong Jisheng. Seeing him like this, Dong Jisheng's face looked a little ugly, thinking that you, a lowly businessman, dare to be so disrespectful to me.
Although he thought so in his heart, Dong Jisheng did not dare to do anything to Lu Mingtao. Muyue Trading Company was not caused by him, a small magistrate with no foundation. Before Muyue Trading Company came, Dong Jisheng was informed by the prefect that he should be treated with caution.
Even the prefect could not do anything to them, let alone a small magistrate. Therefore, no matter how dissatisfied Dong Jisheng was, he did not dare to show it.
"You're welcome, Master Lu." Dong Jisheng waved his hand and asked Lu Mingtao to sit down. "I didn't expect Manager Lu of Muyue Trading Company to be so young and promising." Dong Jisheng said politely.
"Haha, the magistrate is so complimentary." Lu Mingtao was unmoved. Because of the Li family's affairs, he disliked seeing the magistrate of Song County, so his words lacked some superficial respect.
"Mr. Magistrate, Lu wants to tell you about Miss Lin Zhu when he comes here this time." Lu Mingtao's straight to the point words made Dong Jisheng's expression change. "Oh, Mr. Lu, please make it clear."
"Miss Lin signed a contract with our Muyue Trading Company. These watermelon seeds belong to our Muyue Trading Company. Please take good care of us, Lord Magistrate." Lu Mingtao's straightforwardness made Dong Jisheng's chest feel tight. It seemed that people knew that he was related to
This is only possible because of the Li family's affairs.
"Haha, of course. Dong must take more care of Mr. Lu's business." Dong Jisheng was joking with Lu Mingtao, but he still didn't take it seriously, thinking that as long as you left, no one would support her. In the end
You don't know how many of these watermelon seeds fell into the hands of the Li family.
Dong Jisheng's calculations are not bad, but don't treat others as fools. If Lin Zhu's safety can't be guaranteed, or the safety of the seeds in Lin Zhu's hands, how can Lu Mingtao leave with peace of mind?
Lu Mingtao looked at Dong Jisheng's insincere face and began to worry about it. He originally wanted to save some face for Dong Jisheng, but it seemed that he didn't need it anymore.
After Lu Mingtao came out of the magistrate's office, he ordered people to go about things.
"Humph, you're just a businessman, how dare you threaten me." Dong Jisheng returned to Mrs. Liu's room, sat there and said angrily. "Master, who made you angry? Just teach him a lesson, you can
Don't get too angry." Ms. Liu sat down next to him and spoke into Dong Jisheng's ear with her breath like orchid.
"I'm just a little pawn with no eyesight. I'll let her know how powerful I am in a few days." Dong Jisheng drank the water in the teacup. Then he looked at Mrs. Liu sitting next to him, "You still know
Care about me."
"Of course, I am my God." Liu's voice was as delicate and weak as ever, which was very helpful to Dong Jisheng's ears. "It is an honor for me to have such a wife!" Dong Jisheng held his hand.
Liu's hand was touched with a smile.
"Master, what you said makes me feel ashamed." Mrs. Liu gave Dong Jisheng a shy look with a look that made Dong Jisheng feel hot in his heart. He felt something when he touched Mrs. Liu's hand.
other meanings.
"Why did the master agree to let people come to see her?" Mrs. Liu slapped away Dong Jisheng's somewhat erratic hand, and spoke dissatisfiedly about Zhang Manyun coming to see Mrs. Lin.
"You are the same. If she likes to watch, let her watch. If you block her and don't tell her, why are you saying that Lin is sick? It's good now. They have sent all the posts from the imperial doctor to the Yamen. Do you think I can do it?
Do you want me to see you?" Dong Jisheng was also very angry when he mentioned this. "Otherwise, in a few days the whole city will be a joke to us." The county magistrate took away his first wife.
She has the power of housekeeping, but the second lady does not allow anyone to visit her. If this word gets out, how many tricks will people speculate about? How many topics will people talk about? Of course, they will not say a word good about Dong Jisheng. (To be continued.
