Xin Guoguo rolled her eyes and threw the visiting card into Lin Ruhai's arms:
"It's a good thing to hire a teacher. But the master should at least check the teacher's character first."
"Why? Madam, do you know this Jia Hua?"
“I don’t know him!”
Xin Guoguo curled her lips.
"But I know he has a drinking buddy named Leng Zixing."
"Leng Zixing?"
Lin Ruhai was puzzled, "This name sounds familiar."
"Sounds familiar, doesn't it? Turn off this street and walk two or three blocks ahead, and you'll find the owner of that antique shop!"
Lin Ruhai thought about it carefully and immediately reacted:
"Is it him? This shopkeeper Leng is also a man of great talent. However, judging from the lady's expression, she seems to be somewhat displeased with him?"
Xin Guoguo snorted in her heart.
She didn't just dislike them, she absolutely hated them, okay?!
Leng Zixing was the first person around Mrs. Wang to sell stolen goods! In the original plot, he sold a lot of Daiyu's things!
She is Daiyu's stepmother now, so of course she has to share the same hatred with her daughter!
"Master, go check it yourself! I'm tired and going back to bed! Maotuan, keep an eye on the child!"
Xin Guoguo said this and stood up and left.
The little fur ball who was entrusted with an important task: ≥﹏≤
Crying!
[Host, I'm not a baby-raising system! 嘤嘤嘤(┯_┯)]
Xin Guoguo ignored this drama queen and went to bed, closed her eyes and went to sleep!
The little furry ball looked at the three little guys around him who were pulling his fur and scrambling to climb onto him, and he looked as if he had lost all hope in life.
I really want to go back to the past and slap myself to wake up the me who was happily spinning around in the little world when I first arrived!
Oh, oh, oh!
Just talking about the system world, is there any system worse than this one?
“Woof woof woof!”
[Host, help! ]
There was another pain on his body. The little furry ball looked at the yellow hair flying in the wind, tears welling up in his eyes.
Oh, oh, oh!
It's only three years old, still a baby! Is it going to suffer the pain of baldness?
Xin Guoguo turned over in bed and slept soundly, and didn't hear the little fur ball's cry for help at all.
On this side, Lin Ruhai's good mood suddenly disappeared.
He strode away and told Lin Quan to investigate.
Before evening, Lin Quan told Lin Ruhai all the information he had found out.
The identities of Leng Zixing and Jia Hua were not difficult to find out, but Lin Ruhai had not thought about it deeply before.
"Leng Zixing is the son-in-law of Zhou Rui, the second wife of the Duke of Rong's mansion. He's in the business of buying and selling antiques. However, some of the antiques he has seem to be of shady origin..."
When he said the last sentence, Lin Quan's voice lowered. It was not known whether he was afraid of being heard or he did not know what to say.
"for example?"
Lin Ruhai looked at Lin Quan. The brush in his hand had just been dipped in ink, but it hung on the paper for a long time without falling.
Only drops of black ink dripped from the tip of the pen, leaving a large ink mark on the fine rice paper, completely ruining the original half-written words.
But Lin Ruhai didn't care about these things at the moment. After taking a glance, he simply put down the brush and crumpled up the ruined paper and threw it into the wastebasket on the side.
From beginning to end, his eyes were on Lin Quan.
Lin Quan just felt more and more panicked.
He lowered his voice and said, "From what I've seen, some of these antiques seem to be belonging to the emperor."
The last four words struck Lin Ruhai's heart hard.
His face darkened instantly.
He didn't think that Leng Zixing, a commoner, had the ability to steal imperial property and even trade it so openly, as if he was not afraid of being discovered at all.
Lin Ruhai didn't believe that Leng Zixing had no one behind him.
I just don’t know, is the person behind Leng Zixing Jia Zheng or Lady Wang?
"What about Jia Hua?"
Lin Ruhai silently kept Leng Zixing's matter in mind and planned to write about this matter in the memorials for the next half month.
Since unlocking the new skill three years ago, Lin Ruhai and the saint have maintained a tacit understanding of communicating once every two weeks.
Lin Quan's expression became even uglier, with a hint of disdain and fear between his eyebrows.
"Master, this Jia Hua is even more ruthless! His courtesy name is Shifei, and his nickname is Yucun. You don't know, his original surname wasn't Jia. He was adopted by an elderly couple, so he changed his last name to Jia.
“On a normal day, the old couple treated the child very well. They were reluctant to give him food or clothes, and spent all their money on him.
"As a result, last year, after he learned about his life story, he simply abandoned the two elderly people without a care in the world and moved to Hulu Temple, next door to Zhen Shiyin's home."
"Zhen Shiyin?"
Lin Ruhai interrupted Lin Quan doubtfully.
"But that's the family whose child your wife rescued just two days ago?"
Lin Quan nodded: "Yes."
"Zhen Shiyin was a descendant of an aristocratic family, and his family had some wealth. So when Jia Hua said he was short of money, Zhen Shiyin gave him fifty taels without hesitation!"
"This man is quite generous."
"He was indeed generous, so generous that when someone fell in love with his wife's personal maid, he only politely declined, unaware that he was already hated. Before leaving, Jia Hua set fire to Zhen Shiyin's house. If there were no one at home at the time, I'm afraid Zhen Shiyin's family would have died!"
Lin Ruhai choked and didn't know what expression to make for a moment.
Lin Quan smiled and continued:
"Two years ago, he passed the imperial examination and became the prefect of Ruzhou. However, while in office, he abused his power and protected the murderer Xue Pan. When the Sage learned of this, he immediately dismissed him from office."
