In the early morning, news came. More than a hundred people from the Lin family and a large number of supplies and supplies arrived at the mountain pass on the east side of Funiu Mountain. Lin Jue had been waiting at the mountain pass with his people for a long time. From a distance, he saw Lin Boyong being supported by everyone.
Lin Jue felt a strange feeling in his heart as he staggered forward, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
"Lin Jue has met uncle. It has been a hard and tiring journey." Lin Jue bowed and saluted.
Although Lin Boyong was tired and tired, he was still very happy to see Lin Jue. He bowed and smiled and said: "Boyong has met the master of the family. But I finally meet you."
Lin Jue sighed and was about to speak. Lin Boyong waved his hand and said: "Let's talk about it when we get there. My old arms and legs can't bear it anymore. Everyone comes to see the owner, so we can continue on our way."
Everyone came forward to see Lin Jue. Some were happy, while others had doubts on their faces. Most people in the Lin family didn't know what happened. It was just that the head of the family had a destiny, and secondly, they had to rely on the head's family to live. In addition,
They heard that their lives would be in danger if they didn't leave, so they all had to follow. They all murmured in their hearts, thinking that Lin Jue must have caused trouble for the Lin family. Although they didn't dare to say they were resentful, they actually didn't feel resentful in their hearts.
I can't let go. I'm worried and afraid of being tortured along the way. How can I be in a good mood there?
Lin Jue knew it well and didn't care. But when he saw a circle of people, almost all the Lin family's uncles and cousins saw him, but he didn't see Lin Bonian. Looking at the dark car behind him, Lin Jue thought that
Lin Bonian was probably on a big car behind him, so he didn't interfere and planned to settle down on the mountain.
Bai Bing also looked tired. Lin Jue walked to her side and thanked her. Bai Bing smiled and said, "Thank you for what? Do you still need to thank me for my family's affairs?"
Lin Jue nodded and smiled. Seeing that everyone was very tired, he quickly ordered to go back to the mountain to settle down and rest. Seeing Lin Boyong staggering, Lin Jue squatted down and wanted to carry Lin Boyong into the mountain. How could Lin Boyong be willing to do this? He smiled and said: "Is that okay? You
Do you think my old bones are useless? When my Lin family went to the northwest to run business, I led a team of mules and horses for ten days and ten nights through the mountains, and I didn't even feel tired. Although I am older, I am not tired.
As for having someone carry it on your back, isn’t that going to end in death?”
Lin Jue laughed and nodded. Lin Boyong always had a sense of energy. Apart from anything else, this energy was worth emulating. His loyalty to the Lin family was unquestionable in his heart. He might be a little confused at ordinary times, but on a few occasions
When it comes to major matters, he can make decisive decisions immediately. He has the spirit of a strong man to cut off his wrist.
Although Lin Boyong refused to be carried on his back, Lin Jue considered that the road up the mountain was more difficult, so he ordered someone to get a lifting chair and forced Lin Boyong to sit on the lifting chair. Two strong Luoyan Army guards carried Lin Boyong
, everyone slowly entered the mountain pass.
A large number of people were already waiting in the valley below the East Peak of Dazhai. After a large number of supplies arrived, they began to carry them up the mountain. Lin Jue accompanied Lin Boyong and others up the mountain and entered the village.
Everyone was invited into the cottage hall, and nearly two hundred people crowded into the patio outside the Juyi Hall. A group of female guards came with tea and snacks and placed them in front of everyone. Everyone in the Lin family was hungry, thirsty, and extremely exhausted.
, and immediately started gobbling it up.
In the hall, the main members of the Lin family were seated. Lin Jue's wives and concubines also came forward to greet the Lin family. Speaking of which, Lin Jue's wives and concubines were all Lin family wives. Although they did not have much contact with the Lin family, their identities could not be changed.
. And they all knew that Lin Jue cared deeply about the Lin family, and everyone in the Lin family regarded her husband very seriously.
After the greetings were over, Lin Jue still didn't see Lin Bonian's figure, and finally couldn't help but asked: "Why didn't you see your second uncle?"
Lin Boyong showed a trace of embarrassment on his face. Lin Jue looked at the people around him. Lin Quan, Lin Run, Lin Song, Lin Chang, Lin Sheng and other Lin family members all lowered their heads. Lin Jue frowned and looked at Lin Chang and Lin Sheng, "Two brothers, what is the end of the second uncle?"
What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Lin Chang and Lin Sheng are Lin Bonian's sons, so Lin Jue naturally wants to ask them, who is their father.
"This... the head of the family, my father, he... he..." Lin Chang said hesitantly.
"Why are you hesitating? What happened?" Lin Jue frowned.
Lin Boyong coughed and said, "Don't ask them anymore, head of the family. Let me tell you. Your second uncle refuses to leave Hangzhou. We tried hard, but he refused to leave. After Xiaohu sent your letter back, the reason why
The reason why we delayed taking action for a whole day is because your second uncle refused to leave."
Lin Jue frowned and said, "Why is that?"
Lin Boyong smacked his lips and said, "Do you even need to ask? Don't you know?"
Lin Jue frowned and said, "What do you know?"
Lin Boyong sighed: "Hey, you are confused sometimes. Let me ask you, where is this place?"
Lin Jue blurted out: "Funiu Mountain and Luoyan Valley."
Lin Boyong looked at Lin Jue blankly and said softly: "Do you need to explain it more clearly?"
Lin Jue suddenly realized and understood why. Funiu Mountain fell to Yangu, which was a bandit's stronghold. He did not hide his whereabouts. The letter he asked Xiaohu to take back made it very clear that he wanted the Lin family to move to Funiu Mountain.
.Although he did not say what kind of place Luoyan Valley in Funiu Mountain is, it obviously does not need to be said at all. Lin Boyong and Lin Bonian naturally knew it well. The reason why Lin Bonian refused to come is precisely because this is a bandit village.
He refused to come, probably because he was embarrassed to be in the company of others.
"Second uncle, does he think that this is not the place for him to stay? No wonder, the second uncle once served as the deputy envoy of the third department, and he is a man of status and honor. It is understandable for him to think so." Lin Jue frowned.
"It's not just him who thinks so, many people in our Lin family think so too. I told them where we were coming halfway, and I didn't want to hide it from them. Obviously they couldn't figure it out either. Your second uncle is very stubborn and persistent.
If he wants to stay in Hangzhou, we have no choice but to let him go." Lin Boyong said.
Lin Jue said softly: "If you stay in Hangzhou, my second uncle is afraid... I'm afraid... he will be arrested by them. Hey, how could this happen?"
Lin Boyong said: "Yes. At first we were doubtful about the letter you sent. It wasn't until we boarded the ship to leave that the people arrested by the court arrived, and then we believed it. Bonian, hey, he must have been arrested by them. Fortunately, he
I convinced him and asked Lin Chang and Lin Sheng to follow him. Otherwise, if Lin Chang and Lin Sheng also stayed with him, the second brother's line would be cut off."
Lin Jue felt quite regretful, and at the same time he blamed himself even more. All of this seemed to be caused by himself. The second uncle must have been unlucky. Although Lin Bonian had suffered a lot, he was his second uncle after all, and his father
My brother couldn't help but feel uncomfortable when he heard about this.
"Uncle, why are you willing to come? I originally thought that the person who should be hesitant and opposed the most is uncle." Lin Jue said softly.
Lin Boyong said calmly: "Your uncle, I am thinking about everyone in the Lin family. As long as everyone in my Lin family can survive, I don't care where we go. Even if we go to the end of the world, it doesn't matter. What's more, I believe in you. You are the head of the Lin family. You will definitely
It’s for the consideration of everyone in the Lin family. If we don’t trust you, why should we elect you as the head of the family? If it wasn’t an emergency, how could you make such a decision?”
Lin Jue was quite moved in his heart. Lin Boyong really worried about the Lin family, and he cared more about the Lin family than himself. When Lin Ke became a gangster, he also killed his relatives out of justice, and he had no resentment towards himself afterwards and kept the matter secret.
Lin Boyong's love for the Lin family was much stronger than his own. Lin Jue made a decision immediately.
"Lin Jue. What happened in the court? You said it briefly in your letter. Who did you offend? How...how could the three good envoys be here improperly?" Lin Boyong asked.
Lin Jue sighed, looked at the noisy people in the courtyard outside, and said with a smile: "Uncle, you have worked hard all the way, so you need to have a good rest. These things are a long story, and I will talk about it after everyone is settled and rested.
Let me explain to you. I will hold a family dinner tonight to welcome my uncle and all uncles and brothers. I will also explain it at that time. What do you think?"
Lin Boyong thought for a while and nodded: "That's fine, everyone is tired and needs to rest first."
Lin Jue turned to Gao Muqing and said, "Has the place been prepared?"
Gao Muqing nodded and said: "We are ready. The newly built village houses in Jiming Valley downstream have been completed soon, and they can all be moved in. Our Lin family happens to live in the same place, and more than thirty houses should be enough for everyone to settle in. Then
Let’s call the village Linjia Village, as it happens that there are no outsiders living there.”
Lin Jue nodded and said, "Very good. Although it's a bit far away, I'm not afraid if there are carriages and horses to travel with. We'll send them to settle down now."
…
In the evening, dozens of cars and horses brought the Lin family to Lin Jue's Bashang mansion. After a whole day's rest, the Lin family had found a place to live and settled down, and felt at ease. After sleeping for a day, bathing and changing clothes
, one by one recovered from the shock and despair.
The banquet was held in the front courtyard, and the dishes on the banquet were very rich. It was midsummer at the moment, and the fruits and vegetables in the valley were ripe and there were many kinds. The little princess ordered people to go to the village and buy some forest from the hunters.
For game, we invited several fishermen to catch dozens of herrings in the dam, added some poultry, pigs and sheep, and set up more than a dozen tables. Usually the food in the village is not so good, but this is the first time for everyone in the Lin family to
When dining in a cottage, as the wife of the head of the Lin family, she naturally has to put some thought into making it grand.
Lin Boyong was wearing a black robe and his hair was neatly combed. He was radiant and smiling. Lin Jue invited him to sit at the front seat. Guo Kun also came and sat at the front seat. Apart from that, Lin Jue did not call anyone else.
Man, this is purely a family dinner for the Lin family.
After the banquet began, Lin Jue raised his wine glass to toast everyone and said loudly: "You uncles and brothers, you have come all the way from Hangzhou and have worked hard. I would like to express my gratitude to you with this glass of wine to wash away the dust for you."
