Zhao Dacheng was shocked to realize that he had not done a good job in the investigation. He only listened to some one-sided remarks from the Zheng family and thought that the owner of the Zhuyuan had no background.
Unexpectedly, this girl Lin Zhu (mentioned in Zhao's letter) not only has some relationship with the Lin family, but is also the god-granddaughter of General Chang and has a close relationship with Dr. Zhang.
He couldn't help but feel a little scared. Although the status of the Hou's Mansion was not any worse than that of the General's Mansion, and Chang Tianlei was the only one left in the General's Mansion, don't forget that the Chang family also had a daughter who was a concubine in the palace. Well, she is very favored by the emperor.
Thinking of this, Zhao Dacheng felt sweat on his back, and immediately wrote a letter to the Hou Mansion, describing the situation here in detail, and asking the Marquis to make a decision.
Zhao Dacheng himself was not idle. On the one hand, he arranged for his own people to inquire about Lin Zhu and the people around her. On the other hand, he prepared some gifts and planned to visit Zhuyuan again. Of course, it was for a visit. The guise of Young Master Biao, and the letter from Zhao asking him to take Young Master Biao back. Although he didn’t know whether he could succeed, he had to give it a try before he could explain to Zhao.
Of course, Zhao Dacheng did not appear in Zhuyuan two days later, mainly because his men had not yet fully found out the details of Zhuyuan, but they had found out the details of Wu Jinpeng.
Thus, they also found out what happened to Lin Zhu in Linjia Village since he was a child before he came to the capital.
Zhao Dacheng looked at the information about Lin Zhu in front of him with great confusion. There was no evidence of direct contact between Lin Zhu and Muyue Trading Company, which put him in a dilemma. Since Zhao Dacheng knew that Lin Zhu had special watermelons, After receiving the seeds and special rice seeds, I always thought that these things owned by Muzue Trading Company must be provided by Lin Zhu, so I took it for granted that Lin Zhu could also provide them with these.
However, he who has been in charge of Zhao Ji Mipu in the capital knows that in the past, it was possible to squeeze out Muyue Trading Company for some trivial matters, but now it is not so easy, because there are vague rumors in the capital that the boss behind Muyue Trading Company is actually Mu Qiyue was expelled from Prince Qing's Mansion. And he was on good terms with Prince Qi, so the Marquis of Hui'an would not touch Mu Qiyue easily.
No useful information could be found from Mu Yue Trading Company, and Lin Zhu had the backing of the General's Office. Zhao Dacheng felt very confused. This matter was a bit tricky.
He didn't dare to act rashly, so he had to do everything he could with his heart.
Hui'an Houfu in the capital.
Zhao Cheng, the Marquis of Hui'an, looked at the letter in front of him with a gloomy expression. Although it was a title given by the Marquis Mansion and the Supreme Emperor, which was a supreme honor, he knew his own suffering. Today, the Zhao family is no longer what it used to be.
That's why Zhao Cheng, the Marquis of Hui'an, is so concerned about the business in his house. There are not many talented people among his descendants. He is almost certain that when he is a hundred years from now, the Zhao family will be in decline.
That's why he thought about accumulating more wealth so that he would have enough financial resources to support him when someone with extraordinary talents appeared among his descendants. Since the share of tribute in the palace was reduced, he deliberately tried to find out the special items. The origin of rice seeds.
Now he finally has a clue. It is actually related to the General's Mansion, which makes him feel that the matter is very difficult to handle.
Intimidation will not work. If you can get inducement, it seems that you have to take the gentle route. After learning Lin Zhu's identity, Zhao Cheng first thought of the Lin family.
He had heard about the matter between Lin Zhu and Lin Yuewei to some extent, but it was just what his daughter Zhao complained about when she returned to her parents' home. So he felt it was necessary to call his daughter and son-in-law to discuss it carefully.
"Father-in-law, my son-in-law is here to say hello to you." Lin Shurui took Mrs. Zhao to the house where Zhao Cheng received guests.
"Dad, what do you want to do with my husband?" Zhao is Zhao Cheng's favorite daughter, so her words always have a childlike coquettishness in them, and her etiquette is also a bit perfunctory.
"You sit down first. She is a mother of several children, and she still doesn't look like an elder at all." Zhao Cheng glared at Mrs. Zhao, turned to Lin Shurui and smiled, "Xianxiang, my daughter still has this temper.
It’s really embarrassing for you.”
"What are you talking about, father-in-law? Madam is just a little more lively." Lin Shurui obviously didn't care about Zhao's performance in this regard.
Zhao Cheng nodded secretly after hearing this. He was very satisfied with Lin Shurui's performance and was happy that his daughter had found a good family, one who could tolerate her.
"I heard that Xiaoqi went out to play and hasn't come back yet?" Zhao Cheng started.
"That's right, Dad, have the people you sent brought Xiao Qi back? It's been so many days." When Zhao heard this, he had an unhappy look on his face.
"Worrying my father-in-law, Xiaoqi got the approval of his father and mother and went to the countryside with a girl to visit the amusement park. However, because General Chang, Mr. Du and Mr. Zhang were also with him, the son-in-law also agreed, but they were already gone.
It has been two months, and the family is really convinced, so they troubled Butler Zhao to bring him back." Lin Shurui explained the whole story to Zhao Cheng.
When Zhao Cheng heard this, his heart moved. It seemed that the people he sent this time would definitely find nothing in Song County. With General Chang here, how dare he do anything. And even he himself
I will not let the housekeeper act in Zhuyuan without any scruples.
"Haha, if a child doesn't like to play, of course he will go wherever there is excitement." Zhao Cheng did not show any surprise on his face.
"Huh, it depends on who you hang out with. It's just some bad luck. She happened to be recognized as the god-granddaughter by the General's Palace, and that's why she got her current status. But look at which lady in the capital will treat her like a granddaughter."
Take it seriously." Mrs. Zhao became angry when she mentioned Lin Zhu. She even spoke with strong personal opinions and was very biased.
Zhao Cheng and Lin Shurui both looked at each other helplessly. Zhao's current expression was really not very pleasing.
Zhao Chengyou was unhappy and frowned secretly. Although he didn't think what Zhao said was wrong, after all, he needed his daughter to be the middleman. With her acting like this, she might mess things up.
Lin Shurui felt that Lin Zhu was not as unbearable as his wife said. In fact, he always felt that Lin Zhu gave him a familiar feeling. Although this familiarity was very vague, he also felt that maybe he had only met Lin Zhu once.
The reason is that I saw it from a distance, so I had some misunderstandings.
"Okay, you are an elder, why are you always arguing with the younger generation? You have a ** status." Zhao Cheng had to interrupt his daughter. He was afraid that Zhao would say too many bad things about Lin Zhu, and later found out that he wanted to ask for help.
It didn't end well for Lin Zhu.
"By the way, my son-in-law would also like to congratulate his father-in-law." Lin Shurui remembered something, stood up and clasped his fists, congratulating Zhao Cheng, "My father-in-law's worries will be solved soon."
"Yes, Dad, congratulations." Mrs. Zhao also heard about it from Lin Shurui, and immediately changed her face and echoed with a smile.
"Hey, congratulations, please sit down." Zhao Cheng sighed and waved his hand, motioning for the two of them to sit down.
"Isn't the news wrong?" Seeing that Zhao Cheng was not very happy, Lin Shurui thought he had gotten false news again this time.
"The news is correct, but this matter is not easy to handle." Zhao Cheng shook his head, with a look of embarrassment on his face.
"With his father-in-law's status, couldn't he intimidate that country man?" Lin Shurui was a little surprised.
"You will definitely be surprised after hearing this. Do you know who that person is?" Zhao Cheng glanced at the two of them.
Both Lin Shurui and Zhao looked attentive.
"Manager Zhao went to Song County. The garden is called Zhuyuan, and its owner is the girl Lin Zhu you just mentioned." Zhao Cheng finished in one breath.
Lin Shurui was stunned for a moment before reacting, while Zhao was half a beat slower.
"Dad, Manager Zhao is not mistaken, how could it be her?" Zhao's voice was raised and a little high-pitched.
"I hope not." Zhao Cheng sighed, but it backfired.
"What do you want to do, father-in-law?" Lin Shurui no longer struggled with Lin Zhu's identity. He did not think that Zhao Cheng called the couple here specifically to tell them the news. There must be other things to say.
"You can't use your identity to speak, you can only look at the benefits of giving her more." After Zhao Cheng stated his plan, he looked at his son-in-law.
"Why should I give her any benefits?!" Mrs. Zhao stood up and objected first, "Dad, just ask her to hand over the things. I don't believe that a country girl dares to do something wrong?" Originally, Mr. Lin and Mrs. Lin may have no idea.
Zhao, who gave Lin Zhu a lot of money as a gift, was not shy about it, but now she was even more opposed to her father doing so.
"Look at you, you're getting more and more outrageous." Zhao Cheng was worrying about business. Not only did his daughter not understand what he said, but she was causing trouble. He really didn't know what to say to her.
"Father-in-law, this is just like this, I'm afraid it's inappropriate. If she really has what you need, it must have something to do with Muzue Trading Company. Good things like special white rice can't be so clever.
The Yue Shang Bank has it, and Miss Lin Zhu has it too. I think both parties must have come from the same place."
After listening to Lin Shurui's words, Zhao Cheng also nodded, "You are right, I think so too."
"If it came from the hands of Mu Yue Trading Company, they would never hand over such an important thing to an orphan like Miss Lin Zhu. So, this means that Mu Yue Trading Company actually got it from Miss Lin Zhu.
Seeds." Lin Shurui finished speaking.
Zhao Cheng dazzled and slammed the table, "As expected of the Lin family." Lin Shurui's analysis was very logical, and while Zhao Cheng agreed with it, he couldn't help but sigh, there are no people with such wisdom in the Zhao family.
Come out with one.
"What do you think the good son-in-law should do?" Zhao Cheng asked Lin Shurui the question.
"I think it would be best for my father-in-law to find someone to talk to Miss Lin Zhu." Lin Shurui vaguely understood what Zhao Cheng meant, but he was not sure he could help, so he was unwilling to take over. (To be continued.
