Lin Zhu's worries were finally resolved quickly. Just ten days after Lin Zhu sent Fu Dou'er to General Chang's Mansion, news came from Mu Qiyue, saying only that the emperor had agreed. If there was no definite evidence,
Fu Douer's life experience will not be announced in advance.
Lin Zhu only thought that the emperor was so talkative because of Mu Qiyue's sake. However, after General Chang's explanation, Lin Zhu realized that there were actually many connections between this.
Nowadays, Lin Qingyue, the only concubine in Prince Qi's Mansion, is from the Lin family. If Fu Douer's affairs were to be exposed, Lin Qingyue would be the first to bear the brunt. However, how could Lin Qingyue, who had the Lin family behind her, give in so easily?
Regardless of whether she was responsible for what happened to Fu Dou'er and his mother, even if she was the biggest suspect, the Lin family would help her make it a big deal.
The emperor would definitely not offend the Lin family, who is now an important minister in the court, because of a person who has been dead for a long time and has no background.
If you really want to attack Lin Qingyue, you have to provide all the evidence that she can't refute. In this way, the Lin family will not protect her.
There are many ways to make amends for Fu Dou'er, and the emperor is definitely not willing to directly confront the Lin family and cause turmoil in the court.
After hearing General Chang's explanation, Lin Zhu felt a little sad for Fu Dou'er, but since Fu Dou'er could still be by her side, she was willing to cooperate with them.
However, what Lin Sheng thought was that when Fu Dou'er grew up and was unable to recognize his ancestor, she would tell him his true life story and let him make his own decision on whether to recognize his father.
Of course, in order to make his life more stable, Lin Zhu would not mention this idea to anyone, nor would he show it.
The sales of Zhuji sake can be said to be huge profits, so before the Chinese New Year, Lin Zhu's income was very generous. Coupled with the production of Zhuyuan and the current village, Lin Zhu's small treasury became even more abundant.
For this reason, Lin Zhu specially sealed big red envelopes for everyone in the current Zhuangzi and Zhuyuan. There were even several couples in the Zhuyuan who were getting married, and Lin Zhu gave special gifts.
Of course, there is also a box for Zhao Xiaocao. Lin Zhu specially sent it as a gift.
A pair of gold bracelets were given to her as a press box, and her slave status was also canceled. Because Mu Feng was Mu Qiyue's subordinate, he must not be a slave and had his own good status. Zhao Xiaocao and her
Her parents were even more grateful to Lin Zhu. They kowtowed to her several times excitedly.
Although Lin Zhu was not used to it, because it was something he had to experience, he accepted it calmly.
Time flies. December has entered, and when the first snow falls, everyone will prepare to celebrate the New Year.
Lin Zhu and Fu Douer were invited by General Chang to celebrate the New Year at the General's Mansion just to take care that they had no elders around, and Aunt Chang, who had always been very close and was regarded as an elder, was in the General's Mansion again.
The only owners of the General's Mansion are General Chang and Chang Tianlei, and apart from Chang Yi and others, there are relatively few servants. Furthermore, after the new year, Lin Zhu will officially worship General Chang as his godfather. It's past now.
Nothing is impossible.
Dr. Zhang also thinks this is better. It saves them from worrying. Lin Zhu and Fu Douer always live in the countryside and they can't take care of them.
Old Doctor Zhang's persuasion also gave Lin Zhu an idea. Her house in the capital was far away from the General's Mansion and the Zhang family. Now that she recognized her godfather, although Lin Zhu would not live in the General's Mansion, she would still be there.
The place where you live in the capital should be closer.
So she thought about entrusting Lu Mingtao to find a bigger house, buy it, and use it as her and Fu Dou'er's home in the capital.
However, when General Chang found out about this, he reprimanded Lin Zhu unhappily, saying that she was too out-of-touch and would look to others for trivial matters. Besides, the reputation of the General's Mansion was much greater than that of Muyue Trading Company.
So under General Chang's instructions, Chang Yi quickly found a nice house, right in the middle of the General's Mansion and the Zhang family.
In addition, although the house is a bit old, it has a small garden with all the internal organs and a small garden. This makes Fu Douer, who likes to play outside, very happy. In addition, the small garden has been preserved.
Very good. Although the flowers and plants have withered and can only be replanted the next year, some trees are still standing strong.
When Fu Douer saw this small garden, he started running and jumping on the road paved with blue bricks.
Although the house is a bit old, it can be seen that the previous owner took good care of it. There are no signs of insect or rat bites on the walls and pillars.
It had to be slightly repaired so that Lin Zhu and others could move over.
After the New Year, Fu Dou'er was almost five years old. After listening to Feng Yuanbo's words, Lin Zhu also felt that it was time for him to become a formal enlightenment. Feng Rongxuan, who was two years older than him, had already studied both civil and military skills under the tutelage of his father Feng Yuanbo.
And because if Fu Dou'er had been living at home in Wangcun, he would be too playful and not interested in studying.
So Lin Zhu decided to live in the capital for a long time, and then take Fu Dou'er back every one or two months. So Lin Zhu's house was completed two years ago. Of course, this was the result of paying a high amount of labor fees.
, otherwise very few people would be willing to come out to work during this month of the year before.
Although the house can be lived in, Lin Zhu still decides to entertain guests after the Chinese New Year. After all, no family will be as leisurely as hers during the Chinese New Year. Visiting relatives and friends will definitely be very busy.
Although the General's Mansion had resumed receiving guests before, it would still close its doors to thank guests during the Chinese New Year. Therefore, Lin Zhu and Fu Dou'er felt very comfortable in the General's Mansion.
Moreover, Lin Zhu often went to the kitchen to show off her skills and cook fresh food for General Chang and others. Coupled with her approachable attitude, she won the favor of all the servants in the General's Mansion.
"Girl Zhu, what are you cooking?" General Chang pointed to a large pottery bowl on the table, with some red soup and two white and tender chickens. It was very fragrant and had a hint of...
There was a faint sweet smell. General Chang felt that the smell was very familiar, but he also felt that now was not the season for that thing, so he asked curiously.
"Grandpa, this is the watermelon chicken that I made some improvements to." Many people have eaten the watermelon chicken made by Lin Zhu, but that was when watermelon was in season. Where can I find fresh watermelon in this cold winter?
So of course you can’t eat it in winter.
"Watermelon is also available in winter?" Although General Chang also knew about this dish, he had not tasted it yet.
"There are no watermelons in winter." Lin Zhu replied, but she stuck out her tongue in her heart, because there were still more than a dozen large watermelons in her space. "But when there were still watermelons earlier, squeeze the watermelons.
It lost its juice and was frozen in the ice cellar."
Lin Zhu really froze some watermelon juice in the ice cellar, but she brought it to the general's mansion here, but today she used the watermelon juice stored in the space, because she couldn't guarantee that it had been
Can watermelon juice that has been frozen for several months still be used?
But there is nothing to worry about when it comes to space production.
General Chang listened to Lin Zhu's explanation and tasted the watermelon chicken happily. After General Chang moved his chopsticks first, Chang Tianlei and Fu Dou'er also raised their chopsticks. After the watermelon season passed, Fu Dou'er again
He has never eaten it, so he misses this dish very much.
"Well, not bad, not bad." After finishing the meal, General Chang nodded with a happy face, and took another sip of the special Bamboo Kee sake. The taste was so good that even a god would not change it.
"It's delicious." Fu Dou'er's little mouth clicked as he finished eating, feeling that it tasted just as good as the watermelon chicken that his sister made before.
At the table of Chang Yi and others, there was already a fight over two watermelon chickens. The five of them didn't even bother to talk. They fought over each other for fear that they would lose a piece. Among them, Chang Shi was beaten by several brothers.
The reason for being excluded is that he must have eaten watermelon chicken many times at Lin Zhu's house, so he won't have a share this time.
However, Chang Shi relied on his dexterity and managed to grab a chicken leg and two chicken wings from the hands of several brothers.
The room suddenly became lively. The so-called eating without talking and sleeping without talking completely lost its binding force here.
General Chang also continued to eat with a smile on his face. The General's Mansion was rarely so lively, and after this meal, it seemed to make the General's Mansion more lively.
Compared to the joyful atmosphere of the General's Mansion, two of them were not so happy.
Mr. Lin met Mr. Wang again. After the two met, they just drank. Of course, they were still drunk in Xianju, and they drank Zhuji sake.
"That girl Lin Zhu is most likely that child." Mr. Lin, who had already finished his drink, spoke first. The people he sent to Linjia Village had sent back the news. Although there was no conclusive evidence, there were some things that could be inferred.
Chu Linzhu is indeed a child of the Lin family.
"I've known it for a long time." Mr. Wang also sighed. Although he was relying on intuition, this feeling became clearer and clearer after he met Lin Zhu.
"Humph, that guy, Old Man Chang, got it easier." Mr. Lin suddenly placed the wine glass heavily on the table and said angrily.
"Let him be proud for a while, and then I'll argue with him after he recognizes his granddaughter." At this time, Mr. Wang and Mr. Lin felt that they had the same hatred.
However, the two of them only talked harsh words, and they didn't know when they would explain to their families and take Lin Zhu home.
They were also worried about Lin Zhu. No one could accept this kind of thing easily. Besides, Lin Zhu was now protected by General Chang, and they heard that Zhang Yitang, the imperial doctor before her death, was also her godfather.
Both of them felt it was a bit too tricky.
"By the way, I heard that my grandson's share of this Bamboo Kee sake is shared by me." Mr. Lin shared the inside information with Mr. Wang, making him jealous of General Chang and Dr. Zhang just like him.
"Really?" Mr. Wang's eyes widened. He knew that Lin Zhu was not short of money now, but he didn't expect that she had such ability. She could even have a share of something as famous as Zhuji Sake.
"**Never leave ten." Mr. Lin drank another glass. It was really delicious. Unfortunately, each table was limited to only buying one pot of wine, which was too little.
When Mr. Wang thought of this, he became even more envious of General Chang and Dr. Zhang. Lin Zhu would definitely win filial piety, and isn't this Zhuji Sake a good thing to win filial piety?
I believe that all those who drink well in Beijing will be proud to drink this kind of wine every day. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is mine.
