Lin Yutong had something on her mind and wanted to discuss it with Mr. Fan. When an old couple met, they had a lot to say. She could only keep her doubts in her heart and go greet the Zhu family first.
During the meal, Lin Yutong invited the Zhu family to the inner courtyard.
"We are not outsiders, we are sitting together and having fun." Lin Yutong invited everyone to sit down and said with a smile.
Lin Jishi also smiled and said: "Cousin, sit down. We are all members of our family."
Zhu Pingjiang stood up with a smile: "In fact, there are still a lot of things I'm not used to in the south. When I come back, I feel more comfortable all over."
Little Zhu took Meng's hand and sat down, "If I had known that I would have to come back after going to the south, I should have come to the capital with your parents. This trip was a hassle for me."
Lin Yutong pursed his lips and smiled: "Yes! Who could have imagined that today would happen."
Lin Jishi turned around and asked Lin Yutong, "When will my uncle come back?"
"It's really hard to tell." Lin Yutong really didn't know, "Now it's time to repair it in Chang'an."
"Chang'an?" Zhu Pingjiang was stunned, "Arrived in Chang'an so soon?" Doesn't this take up one-third of the world?
Lin Yutong didn't know what they wanted to inquire about, so he nodded and said, "Yes! There are just some bandits along the way, nothing special."
As she said this, she called the girl over to serve the dishes.
"What are these? Can you eat them?"
Just as Lin Yutong was about to turn around to talk to little Zhu, she heard a small complaint. She looked across in shock, but it was Zhu Guixian, the daughter of the Zhu family, covering her nose with the pig's trotters.
The people at the table fell silent for an instant. Meng looked at Lin Yutong's face before scolding her daughter, "Look at you, what do you look like when you are yelling?"
He only said that she shouldn't yell, but didn't say that she shouldn't dislike the food.
Lin Yutong was entangled in external affairs and had a lawsuit on his head, so he had no time to tempt them here.
Zhu Pingjiang and her son Zhu Guishan's faces turned blue.
Lin Yutong wiped her mouth with a handkerchief without raising her eyelids. Aunt Su smiled and stepped forward, pointing to the little girl, "Take the dishes away and reward you. This was originally a beauty dish eaten by the nobles in the palace.
, since the girl doesn’t like it, just withdraw it and change it.” Then he whispered to the girl waiting for the waiter by the door, “Ask the kitchen to add two more dishes.”
Lin Yutong did not raise his head from beginning to end. After wiping his mouth, he personally served Lin Jiren and Xiao Zhu with dishes.
Little Zhu looked at Meng's embarrassed face and whispered to Lin Yutong: "Niuniu, your cousin is spoiled."
Lin Yutong was stunned at first, "What did the aunt say? What's wrong with my cousin?" She glanced at Meng and smiled sheepishly, "Cousin, look at me. I'm distracted. I'm so busy every day that I slap my foot on the back of the head... cousin...
..." She glanced at Zhu Guixian and said, "Can't you get used to the food from the north? Then you can cook whatever you want in the kitchen. Several of the cooks in the mansion have been servants in the imperial kitchen. They live in different parts of the world without them.
I don’t know how to cook. You’re welcome!”
Meng's face looked better now, "You're used to eating! You're used to eating!" After saying that, he looked at Zhu Pingjiang's face carefully.
After finishing the meal in a hurry, Lin Jiren and Jin came back.
Lin Yutong can be considered liberated. It couldn't be better to have these two people to receive them.
Watching Lin Yutong go out in a hurry, little Zhu said to Jin: "Niuniu has become too scared to recognize her now." The way she sat there in silence was so breathtaking that she didn't even dare to breathe.
Jin felt sorry for her daughter. When she heard this, she burst into tears. "...Not only has she changed a little, she seems to have become a different person." She said she would kill and kill without mercy.
Lin Jiren glared at Jin, "You can do it! You haven't seen how tired she is all day long. How many people on the front line are waiting for food? She is in charge of it all. Now there are hundreds of thousands of troops and horses, and they have to fight every day."
No matter how much food is spent, every cent has passed through her hands."
Zhu Pingjiang asked Lin Jiren in a low voice, "Do you think this will really happen in the future..."
Lin Jiren's heart skipped a beat. He didn't dare to talk nonsense about this matter. He just shook his head and said, "Who can say it accurately?"
Lin Jishi was very optimistic, "I think it's almost done. Now that we have arrived in Chang'an, I'm afraid the imperial court is not far behind..."
Lin Jiren quickly interrupted, "Why don't we care about this now? We will always have something to eat anyway."
Zhu Pingjiangxin said, "If you are not in a hurry, then you don't have to be in a hurry. If it works, you are the head of the country. If you fail, your head will be gone."
But what about the Zhu family? They are just in-laws.
He also wanted his son to take this opportunity to find an official position and change his family.
Mrs. Jin looked around and pulled Xiao Zhu, "There are people coming in and out of the mansion. When there is no stopping, let's go home first. It's not far from the mansion."
Lin Shuanzhu stood up quickly, "That's the best. There are too many servants here, and it feels like people are staring at you everywhere. It's very uncomfortable."
When Lin Yutong learned the news, he had already left the house.
She sighed. In the past, relatives were not so calculating when getting along with each other. Now that the benefits are too great, people's hearts have changed somewhat.
She was really caught off guard by the commotion.
In the blink of an eye, these trivial matters were forgotten by her.
Immediately afterwards, various places began to transport disaster relief food, distribute free food seeds, and encourage people to return to their hometowns.
Despite being so busy, spring plowing is still late in many places.
She was really looking forward to the fourth master coming back soon, and she felt that she really couldn't hold on any longer. Dealing with political affairs was really a very critical matter, and a little negligence might affect the lives of the people in the place.
Only then did she deeply understand why Fourth Master was very cautious in everything he did. This was really not something to be careless about.
What she does every day is to sit in the study and ask her husband for advice on things she doesn’t understand. Not only Mr. Fan, but also other clerks, she also doesn’t let go. She even often takes out problems that she can’t figure out and sort out.
, and asked someone to deliver it to Mr. Lu in Lingwu Mountain. Mr. Lu is a very serious person and will reply to every letter personally.
As for the civil servants in the North, Lin Yutong has not moved for the time being. Whether he is good or bad cannot be understood by looking at the excerpts.
Days like this lasted until autumn, when I received the news that the Fourth Master was coming back.
Early that morning, Nanny Su came to report, "Fourth Master is less than thirty miles away from the capital."
Lin Yutong suddenly stood up and looked at the makeup on his face over and over again in the mirror, "Is there anything wrong?"
Aunt Su shook her head, "Madam, you are really energetic today."
Not only the spirit, but also stunning. The black dress, wide sleeves and skirt, are embroidered with complicated patterns with silver thread.
Solemn yet gorgeous.
Young women can rarely hold down such clothes.
She looked in the mirror again, straightened the silver crown on her head, and then quickly walked out the door.
Lin Yutong led the people to wait outside the city, riding on a snow-white horse and looking out into the distance.
It wasn't until he saw the black spots in the distance that Lin Yutong raised a smile on his face. He raised his whip and hit the horse with his hand as if he was out of control.
The horse neighed and flew away like Li Xuan's arrow.
Qin Yi wanted to follow the escort, but was stopped by Mr. Fan, "The young couple are eager to meet, what are you in a hurry to do?"
People around him couldn't help but smile. They usually looked like stable and mature people, which often made people forget their true age. Now that they look at them, they look a bit like young people.
The fourth master was riding on the horse, and the one following him was no longer Tietou, but He Mao.
However, Tietou was left behind and stationed in Chang'an. Veteran generals like Hu Dali and Li Fang were stationed in various important cities. On the contrary, there were some new faces around Fourth Master.
As a guard, He Mao followed the fourth master closely. In addition, Fang Changqing, Liu Shuquan, Li Jishan, and Sanlang were not far away. They were marching along the way, but occasionally stopped or walked slowly to accompany the fourth master.
I talk about heaven and earth, the past and the present.
At this time, Sanlang felt a little shy about getting close to each other. After all, there were too many old friends in the capital.
The fourth master was in a hurry and wanted to leave quickly, but the weak gentlemen couldn't bear it anymore.
He had to be patient and accompany them to the capital.
Suddenly, a small black dot in the distance moved forward quickly, and He Mao's knife was immediately unsheathed.
Fourth Master stopped him and said, "Don't move..."
In the blink of an eye, you can roughly see the person's appearance.
"Master..." I heard her shouting from a distance.
The Fourth Master immediately laughed, who else could it be besides her?
Closer, closer, closer. You can see her features clearly.
"It's ma'am!"
I don't know who shouted.
Many people who had never seen Lin Yutong couldn't help but be stunned. The woman who came on horseback was full of sassy air. Is this the woman whom Fourth Master vowed to accompany her for the rest of her life on the tower?
Is it beautiful? It’s quite beautiful! It’s so beautiful that you don’t have any thoughts that you shouldn’t have in life.
"Master!" Lin Yutong shouted, and when the two horses approached, he decisively let go of the reins, stretched out his hand to hold the fourth master's hand, and held her in front of him.
Fourth Master hugged her waist, "Why did you run out?" His voice was soft, so soft that it made people's hearts itch.
Lin Yutong put her hand on Fourth Master's hand. At this moment, she couldn't see anyone at all, "I miss you."
She said it so straightforwardly. Fourth Master looked at her and smiled, while the faces of the people around him turned red.
Her tone was so natural and matter-of-fact that no one thought it was frivolous.
Fourth Master tightened his arms around her waist, "I miss you too." He responded to her words, "In the future, don't run out, just wait where you are, I'll go find you."
