Chapter 170: Beijing Lin Family
After a while, Wang Jing said, "Xiao Yongyan, you married a good wife."
Xiao Yongyan was slightly proud, "I am more blessed than you."
"Why are you two being so careless?" Lin Xi said, "I'm afraid I guessed it right."
What else could Wang Jing say but to agree.
Xiao Yongyan didn't say anything, and Lin Xi finally came to his senses, "Who do you want to support?"
Wang Jing was not afraid to answer this question. He let down the curtain to show that he stayed out of it.
Lin Xi's inquiring gaze fell on Xiao Yongyan. Xiao Yongyan knew he couldn't escape, so he could only say, "Thirteen."
Thirteen?
Lin Xi felt like he had heard this name somewhere before. Yes, that was the person behind the prefect.
"Are you... confident?" Lin Xi couldn't help but ask.
"Who knows? Let's take it one step at a time." Xiao Yongyan said.
…
Beijing, Lin family.
There was a knock on the back door, and the Lin family's servant ran to open the door, and saw a young girl, who whispered, "I was introduced by Aunt Zhou to do the work."
The man did not suspect anything and went to call Aunt Zhou.
Aunt Zhou came running over, and when she saw the girl, she quickly welcomed her in. "It's really hard for you to dress up like this."
Wang Yunong smiled and said, "It's okay. This is good for everyone."
Aunt Zhou said, "Don't worry, young lady. The lady has been chanting in her room recently. There are no outsiders here, so no one will disturb you two while you are talking."
Passing through the misty corridor, the two soon arrived at a Buddhist temple.
Aunt Zhou knocked on the door and said, "Madam, Miss Wang is here."
The door was soon opened, and a gorgeously dressed woman appeared behind it. Although she was old, her face still showed the beauty of her youth.
"Yunong greets the Madam." Wang Yunong said.
Madam Lin quickly pulled the people in, and said to Aunt Zhou, "Guard well outside, and don't let anyone get close."
Aunt Zhou said, "Yes, Madam, don't worry."
inside the house.
Madam Lin grabbed Wang Yunong's hand and refused to let go. "Miss, do you really have any news about my Xi'er?"
God knows how anxious she is. A few days ago, when Madam Lin was looking at jewelry in the silver shop, Lin Yunong suddenly sat next to Madam Lin and chatted with her on the pretext of something. During the conversation, she suddenly mentioned Lin Xi's matter.
Mrs. Lin didn't know what was going on at first, but suddenly she heard Wang Yunong say that she had news about Lin Xi and that she would find an excuse to ask Aunt Zhou to come to the Lin family tomorrow.
After saying this, Wang Yunong turned around and left without stopping.
Mrs. Lin was left standing there, thinking about this scene over and over again.
She originally thought that the man was just trying to make fun of her, but she still couldn't help looking forward to it. She didn't expect that Wang Yunong would really come today.
"Madam, time is limited, so I'll make it short. This is what Lin Xi asked me to bring to you." Wang Yunong opened the package on her back and took out a brocade box from it.
Mrs. Lin opened the box and saw the Ganoderma lucidum inside. She was stunned at first, then she saw the envelope inside and quickly opened it.
Written on the paper were the methods of growing Ganoderma lucidum, but she could recognize that it was Lin Xi's handwriting.
In an instant, Mrs. Lin burst into tears, "It really is Xier, it's really Xier!"
Mrs. Lin hugged the box and cried uncontrollably.
Wang Yunong was also very sad, and hurriedly comforted her, "Don't worry, Madam. Although Lin Xi is far away from the capital now, she is living a good life now. She has started a business and has no shortage of money."
However, Madam Lin was even more sad. "When Xi'er was a girl, she never suffered such a hardship. This child has a miserable life!"
After saying this, tears couldn't stop flowing.
After a long while, Mrs. Lin finally recovered a little.
"I'm sorry to make you laugh. I haven't even asked for your last name."
"My name is Wang Yunong, from the Tongque Wang family."
"It's actually the daughter of the Wang family," Mrs. Lin was quite surprised, "I wonder how you met Xi'er?"
"Madam knows that the Wang family is mainly engaged in business. Their business is spread all over the country, and they just happened to go to Lianggu County where Lin Xi is." Wang Yunong said, "She is living a good life now."
"Where is my son-in-law?" Mrs. Lin asked quickly.
"Xiao Yongyan is fine, they are doing well selling bacon now." Wang Yunong said, "Lin Xi has also developed a silk quilt. When the new batch comes out, I will bring you one. But our Wang family should not get too close to you. I will give it to you at the silver shop when the time comes."
Mrs. Lin didn't know what to do for a moment. "Since you are so helpful, this... this bracelet is made of fine material from Tianshan Mountain. You can keep it and wear it, young lady."
Wang Yunong declined politely, "Madam, it's just a matter of convenience. How can I accept such a big gift?"
But Mrs. Lin refused. The two of them refused for a long time, and Wang Yunong did not accept anything.
"Madam, my brother is still in Lianggu County. Maybe Lin Xi will bring you something when the time comes." Wang Yunong said.
"Why do I need all this? As long as she is fine, I have nothing to worry about." Mrs. Lin said.
"Madam," Wang Yunong said solemnly, "There are many things I cannot say, but what I can tell you is that Lin Xi will still have the opportunity to return to the capital in his lifetime, but corresponding to this... I believe you understand."
Mrs. Lin wiped away her tears. Having experienced so many ups and downs over the years, she naturally understood what Wang Yunong meant.
"If there really comes such a day..." Mrs. Lin murmured.
"You must make preparations in advance, and the people at home must keep a low profile and not let anyone catch any evidence. Just pretend that the Lin family no longer has this daughter." Wang Yunong said.
"I understand all this." Mrs. Lin said.
The situation in the capital was changing rapidly and was not peaceful. As the head of the Lin family, Mrs. Lin knew a lot of things. Moreover, this was from the Tongque Wang family, so it was highly credible.
"Thank you, young lady," Mrs. Lin said, "but I wonder if you can contact Xi'er now?"
"I'm afraid there's no way." Wang Yunong was also helpless. "It's not that I don't want to help, it's just that the distance is too far and I can't do it."
Mrs. Lin could not hide her disappointment, but she also knew that this task would be extremely difficult.
…
Taoli Village.
The news that Zhao Tan and Zhao Pingwei confessed their guilt caused an uproar in the village, and everyone was shocked.
Who would have thought that Zhao Lizheng, who seemed to be wholeheartedly serving the village, would actually be the mastermind of this incident. He even burned his own rice fields first in order to clear himself of suspicion.
Now that the village has temporarily lost its backbone, everyone is feeling a little lost, not knowing what the future of their village will be.
Inside the silkworm house, Cui Hongyue couldn't hold back her curiosity and asked Lin Xi, "Did Zhao Lizheng really admit it?"
"Of course, the officials won't make random judgments." Lin Xi said.
Cui Hongyue was shocked and sighed deeply, "How could this happen?"
"Hmph, you only realize it now. I've known for a long time that Zhao has bad intentions." Zhang Chengye, who came in from outside to get the silk, said unhappily.
