While Lin Keni was busy in the West District, Anle Village in Anle Town was not peaceful either.
At this time, Gu Changan and Gu Dongsheng hurriedly walked towards the Lin family.
"Shiro!"
Before they arrived, the voice arrived first.
But when I saw He Buxian at the door, my heart tightened.
At this time, Lin Chengze and He Buxian were talking in the yard.
Lin Chengze, also known as Liu Silang before, raised his head:
"Village Chief, Uncle Dongsheng, is there something wrong?"
Lin Chengze now has undergone earth-shaking changes from the past.
Although he is only fifteen years old, his tenderness has long since faded from his body, and his brows and eyes reveal the edge and sharpness that belongs to young people.
The young man of the Lin family has grown up.
Gu Changan and Gu Dongsheng didn't know why they were idle here, so they faced Lin Chengze's inquiry.
The two hesitated.
He Buxian, who was smiling informally, glanced at them coldly, and then returned to Lin Chengze:
"Please take a good look at these account books.
The accounts for three months are a bit too much and confusing. If you don’t understand anything, please ask me again.
Now take a good look at it yourself while I go to the dock first."
After saying that, he nodded to Gu Changan and then walked out of the Lin family gate.
Lin Chengze glanced at the ledger, waited until no one was around, and then looked at Gu Changan and the others:
"Village Chief, Uncle Dongsheng, there are no outsiders. If you have anything to do, please tell me.
Also, why not Xian is the one left by mother, you don’t have to be wary of him, if you have any problem, just tell him."
Gu Changan did not answer this, but looked at Gu Dongsheng seriously:
"Dongsheng, tell me."
Gu Dongsheng nodded:
"Silang, something happened in Anle Town."
Lin Chengze shook his head intuitively, "Uncle Dongsheng, this is impossible."
If something really happened in Anle Town, it was impossible for the person guarding the secret place not to notice it, and it was impossible for him not to receive the news.
Gu Dongsheng knew that he was not that easy to believe, so he still shook his head seriously:
"Shiro, I won't joke about this kind of thing."
Immediately, he told what he had discovered.
Because of family matters, he took half a month's leave from the Yamen.
I went back to report on vacation yesterday, but was told that his job was gone and his things had been sorted out.
The Yamen didn't even let him in, so he just took his things and left.
And just when he was kicked out, he discovered that all his colleagues in the yamen had been replaced.
I don't know anyone.
Afterwards, he went to the home of an acquaintance of his colleagues, only to find that they had not been home for several days.
Gu Dongsheng naturally became suspicious.
So last night, he avoided everyone and sneaked into the Yamen.
But he saw their county magistrate being tied up and kneeling on the ground. The person sitting on the throne was a middle-aged man he had never seen before.
This scene frightened him.
He didn't care to continue to inquire about the news, so he quietly returned to Anle Village.
After thinking about it for a while, he found Gu Changan.
and told him about it.
After the two of them deliberated, they decided to tell Lin Chengze about this.
This matter is definitely not simple.
Lin Chengze stood up with a serious face:
"Uncle Dongsheng, are you sure about this?"
Gu Dongsheng nodded with a serious expression, "Do you think I dare to joke about this kind of thing?
Shiro, I'm afraid something big is going to happen in Anle Town."
Speaking of this, he hesitated to speak and looked around, reluctant to speak.
Lin Chengze shook his head, "Uncle Dongsheng, it's okay to just say it."
Gu Dongsheng breathed a sigh of relief, and with a serious look on his face, he lowered his voice:
"Silang, something happened at the Yamen. You haven't received any news about such a big thing. Have you considered anything else?"
He is now afraid that everything in the Lin family in Anle Town has been cannibalized, and that Shiro has been kept in the dark.
What he was worried about was that their every move would be watched.
Lin Chengze's expression changed drastically, but he quickly calmed down:
"Uncle Dongsheng, village chief, don't tell anyone these things yet.
Leave this matter to me."
Gu Dongsheng was a little worried, "Silang, are you okay?"
"If you can't do it, you have to do it," Lin Chengze's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness:
"If you dare to touch my mother's things, I will kill you!
Anyone who comes to Anle Town to cause trouble will be killed as well!"
Looking at Lin Chengze with his bright eyes, a flash of relief flashed across Gu Dongsheng's face.
This child has grown into a responsible adult.
Lin Chengze didn't know what he was thinking, so he whispered to them again to keep this matter secret.
When sending them out, Lin Chengze laughed loudly:
"Uncle Dongsheng, just come to me for this matter.
If you don't come to me, you don't treat me as family."
"Don't worry about your errand, I will go to the county magistrate Mr. Wu to ask about the situation shortly.
Your errand was won by my mother for you.
If you lose this job just because you took time off to take care of your sick mother, wouldn't it be a slap in my mother's face?
And it’s too bullying. Don’t worry, I will never allow such a thing to happen.”
Gu Dongsheng looked grateful, "Silang, then this matter depends on you."
Lin Chengze nodded, sent Gu Dongsheng away, and then returned home.
At noon, someone drove a carriage to take him to the Yamen.
Arrive at the Yamen.
"Master Lin!"
Looking at the yamen servant who was nodding and bowing to him at the yamen gate, surprise flashed through Lin Chengze's eyes.
Then he burst out laughing:
"Chen Liu, have you lost weight like your wife recently?
Why has your figure lost so much weight?"
Chen Liu was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly, "I can't help it, you think I'm fat, and I won't do it if I don't lose weight.
No, after I lost some weight, everyone said I looked better."
Then he looked at him with a smile:
"Master Lin, are you here to see my lord?
It’s not a coincidence. Your Excellency is very busy these two days, why don’t you come back another day?”
"It's okay. I have time. I can wait until Mr. Wu is free to see him again." Lin Chengze shook his head, "I'm not in a hurry and I'm free."
Chen Liu's face stiffened for a moment, and then he said after a while:
"Then wait a minute, I'll go in and inform you."
Lin Chengze nodded and stood waiting outside the Yamen.
Looking at the bustling streets outside and the lively shouts of vendors, Lin Chengze's eyes flashed with a dark light.
Not long after, Chen Liu came out.
Brought him in.
Seeing the dark circles under Wu Ming's eyes, Lin Chengze apologized repeatedly:
"Master Wu, I took the liberty.
Mr. Wu has worked so hard for the people of Anle Town, but I bothered Mr. Wu over trivial matters. It is my fault."
"You kid, stop playing tricks with me here," Wu Ming smiled bitterly and shook his head:
"I know that you are here on Gu Dongsheng's errand, so I don't want to see you."
Saying and sighing:
"Master Lin, it is difficult for me to be an official.
The yamen was short of manpower, and Gu Dongsheng took leave for half a month, which made it difficult for me to do my job.
Moreover, filial piety comes first, so I suspended him from his post and asked him to fulfill his filial piety well.
He has fulfilled his filial piety and has nothing to do with him. I will immediately arrange errands for him, what do you think?"
Lin Chengze nodded, "It is understandable for Mr. Wu to say so.
But my uncle Dongsheng works..."
"I know he is a good person, so be it," Wu Ming interrupted him and thought about it:
"His mother is old and sick and needs his care. How about I arrange a more flexible job for him? What do you think?"
Lin Chengze raised his eyebrows:
"Master Wu is so considerate of my uncle Dongsheng. If I say anything else, wouldn't I be ignorant of good and evil?
Master Wu, let me first thank you on behalf of my Uncle Dongsheng!"
Lin Chengze walked out of the Yamen, looked back at the Yamen behind him, and left quickly.
