Lin Jinyue's entire family transmigrated. They started in hell mode, with a three-year drought and war. During their escape, her mother and brother fell into a coma, and Lin Jinyue nearly becam...
Ji Yuan was still trying his best to persuade them: "What's so interesting about the beach? It's dangerous with strong winds and waves. You guys go first. If you feel comfortable there, great. If you don't like it, come to Yunmeng County. We'll definitely make arrangements for you."
Lin Jinyue smiled and said, "Thank you, Magistrate Uncle."
Lin Jinyue had been a little worried that something might have happened in Yunhe Village, but now she knew that it was just that those people were difficult to get along with.
What storms hasn't she weathered during this time?
They're just villagers from one village.
Lin Jinyue was not faking it at all.
Finally, Ji Yuan asked, "Is everything your father said true?"
Lin Jinyue: "What do you mean, real or fake?"
Ji Yuan was still a little embarrassed: "So your dad does those women's jobs, writes poems for your mother, and still has to earn money outside?"
Lin Jinyue scratched her head, recalling that although Jiang Yun was a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner in her previous life, she often assisted Western doctors in performing surgeries and frequently worked overtime. Her father was the big boss of a company, so he had more free time. His only hobby was reading books and writing love letters to his wife.
She said, "Uncle, what are you talking about? What do you mean by 'women's work'? Isn't that the work of the whole family? Whoever has time can do it? My mother is a doctor, she's busy, after all, seeing patients and saving lives can't be delayed for even a moment. My father does more, writing poems... some of them, they're so mushy, I feel embarrassed just looking at them. And when my mother had her birthday, he wrote a really long letter, so literary, you can't write that without some knowledge."
Ji Yuan was somewhat surprised; his focus had shifted a bit: "You and your father are both literate? Is your father really both literate and skilled in martial arts?"
Lin Jinyue nodded. "My father isn't as good at fighting as my brother, and he's not as good at studying as I am. He only studied hard so he could write love letters to my mother."
Her father studied finance in his previous life, but unfortunately, it didn't seem to be very useful in ancient times.
But soon, Lin Jinyue realized she had let something slip. The county magistrate looked so kind that she couldn't help but lower her guard.
Lin Jinyue quickly added, "My dad is really amazing. It's just that our family isn't well-off. He can memorize everything he reads from my brother's books. But my dad doesn't like being an official. He just wants to think of more delicious and fun things for my mom."
Ji Yuan: "Hey, that's really great. People like us spend our whole lives striving and scrambling to get promoted... Sigh, why am I telling you all this?"
Lin Jinyue smiled and said, "Uncle Ji, don't belittle yourself. How can you say you're so eager to do things? You're just concerned about the people. The higher your official rank, the more you can do."
Ji Yuan looked at Lin Jinyue with a big smile, feeling extremely pleased.
This girl has such a sweet tongue.
This made him want to have a daughter too.
Ji Yuan said to Lin Jinyue, "Don't leave too early tomorrow. I'll arrange a boat for you to go directly to Yunhe Village. It will only take a day. I'll have the boat stay there for two days. You can come by boat to buy anything you need. Yunhe Village is too remote. Apart from the waterway, the other roads are difficult to travel."
Lin Jinyue sincerely thanked him: "Thank you very much, Uncle Ji."
The next morning, Lin Shucheng woke up with a splitting headache.
Lin Jinyue brought him a bowl of hangover soup and said that Jiang Yun was going to talk to the doctor there and buy some medicinal herbs.
Lin Shucheng rubbed his head, "I didn't do anything out of line yesterday, did I? I don't usually drink much..."
In his past life, he would secretly drink, always hiding from his wife. Anyway, according to his friends, he wasn't a very good drinker.
I drank wine last night, and it was just fruit wine, but I never expected it to be so potent.
Lin Jinyue recounted his achievements from the previous night, and then tugged at Lin Shucheng's sleeve, saying coquettishly, "Haha, it seems no one will dare to propose marriage to us in the future, and we won't have to go through all that trouble anymore."
Lin Shucheng added, "That's right, Yueyue. Let me tell you, your mother and I have raised you with the utmost care and love. Don't be like those fools who just find any man to help you out, or your mother and I will be furious."
Lin Jinyue added, "My brother will probably come knocking with a knife, haha, Dad, don't worry, I'm not that stupid."
Lin Shucheng usually exudes a domineering CEO aura when he goes out, with a touch of refined elegance. Despite his age, many young girls still call him their male god.
Lin Shucheng would put on a show in public, but when he got home, he liked to talk about the backstabbing and infighting in the workplace, and about those disrespectful old men who wouldn't sign contracts even after the terms were agreed upon, insisting on drinking with people just to get young girls to keep them company.
He wouldn't deliberately avoid discussing these things with his daughter for the sake of being a perfect father or a role model.
Lin Shucheng wished he could expose all those people's ulterior motives to his daughter, fearing that his pampered little princess might be deceived by others.
Having witnessed too many wealthy heiresses helping poor young men and then being manipulated by psychological manipulation, Lin Shucheng was afraid that his own daughter would also be deceived.
As a result, Lin Jinyue became more cautious in everything she did, and Gu Shao even called her a little fox last night.
Lin Jinyue and Lin Shucheng got down to business: "By the way, Father, I asked Magistrate Ji last night and found out that Yunhe Village is in some trouble. The village chief has some connection with General Gu's subordinate, and it seems that the subordinate's position is higher than Magistrate Ji's, so it's a bit tricky."
Lin Shucheng was not intimidated: "That location is out of the way, let's see who dares to mess around."
Lin Jinyue nodded: "That's what I thought too, so I insisted on going to Yunhe Village, and Magistrate Ji said he would arrange a boat for us."
After washing up, the family packed their things and prepared to leave.
However, before boarding the boat, Lin Jinyue thought it over and decided to call a simple meeting with the villagers.
Actually, she had thought about it. Only her family was in a little danger. The villagers would definitely want to be safe and secure. If everything was fine in Yunhe Village, she would naturally want to take the villagers there. But there were some problems there.
They can't keep an eye on things all the time. The villagers are mostly honest people. If a conflict breaks out, and the other side resorts to underhanded tactics...
Forget about making money; the villagers will just get themselves into trouble.
Lin Jinyue felt terrible just thinking about it.
A group of people sat in the courtyard, having already packed their belongings. Somewhat puzzled, they asked, "Er Ya, what's wrong?"
Seeing Lin Jinyue's serious expression, everyone panicked.
Lin Jinyue said to them, "It's like this. I found out yesterday that Yunhe Village is in some trouble. The village chief is xenophobic and difficult to get along with. If we go there, we'll probably encounter a lot of trouble. But I still have a reason to go. You can discuss it and see if you want to stay here or go to Yunhe Village."
Lin Jinyue began to compare the pros and cons for them. Putting aside other things, Yunmeng County had made great contributions in treating the epidemic. Whether they were doing small business or finding a job, their situation was quite stable.
There's no need to go to Yunhe Village with her.
