Chapter 73 What if She Was Married Before?
Li Wenjing reacted instantly and realized that he had lost his composure.
It's really not good to keep staring at a girl like this.
He turned his head away.
"Li Wenjing, I need to change my clothes. Don't turn your head, or I will kick you off the carriage."
Lin Zhiyi warned.
Li Wenjing's expression instantly turned ugly: "Miss Lin, please rest assured. I am not interested in your body."
Lin Zhiyi choked: "You..."
I was about to argue with him, but then I thought better of it, there’s no need!
She took out a set of clothes from her bag, changed quickly, and then told Li Wenjing that it was okay.
"Thanks for your hard work!"
Lin Zhiyi looked up in surprise, "What?"
She thought she had misheard. It was rare to hear such words from Li Wenjing.
"You let a woman drive the carriage, and I, a man, am sitting in it. But please rest assured, Miss Lin, I have remembered everything you have done. If the day ever comes, I will repay you."
Seeing that Li Wenjing was sincere, Lin Zhiyi waved her hand and said, "No need, just remember your previous agreement."
She didn't ask for anything more, she just wanted to save the lives of the Lin family.
As for whether her father would return to the capital Chang'an with Li Wenjing in five years, based on what she had learned in the past few days, her answer was "yes".
If she could persuade Lin Fu to stay and get the Lin family away from the capital, she would feel more at ease.
A rain made everyone miserable.
Especially for those who did not wear straw raincoats, the red raincoats would stick to their bodies and make them very uncomfortable.
A gust of wind blew, and he shivered even more.
The person wearing the straw raincoat also took it off, but the clothes underneath were also wet.
The rain stopped and they wanted to make a fire to dry the air, but they were stumped because they could not find dry firewood to light the fire.
When they saw Lin Zhiyi get off the carriage, they all looked at her eagerly.
Lin Zhiyi was confused, until a woman asked her if she could light a fire, then she understood why everyone was looking at her.
It turns out that she was regarded as a savior.
"Let me try."
She looked around and found that all the firewood was wet. She picked up some and came under a big tree.
This big tree has not been occupied by anyone yet, and the ground beneath the tree is dry.
I thought to myself, let’s do it here.
He went to find Zhao Zhan again and asked him to use a knife to cut open the dead wood to reveal the inner layer, which was indeed dry.
Zhao Zhan was also a smart man. He knew that Lin Zhi wanted to make a fire, so he scraped off the wood fluff with the tip of his knife. Soon, it piled up into a small fluffy clump.
"That's enough tinder, Brother Zhao."
Lin Zhiyi first lit the wood wool, and then slowly lit the wet firewood, and white smoke came out of the wet firewood.
Although it took some effort, the fire was finally lit.
When everyone saw that Lin Zhiyi had started a fire, they secretly admired her in their hearts: Miss Lin is the real deal.
Everyone came over to the fire, and soon many fires were lit.
After not eating the braised pork cooked by Lin Zhiyi for a few days, someone asked Lin Zhiyi if she could make it.
Lin Zhiyi bought pork in the town at noon, of course, in response to everyone's request.
Chai Ya and Fang Mama took charge of the cooking, while Lin Zhiyi just gave instructions from the side.
The people from the Lin family's main house changed their clothes and came down to help.
As soon as the braised pork came out of the pot, Lord Fan and Lord Cui came over, smelling the meat. "Miss Lin, we don't have any money. Can we buy it on credit?"
After saying this, their faces turned red.
They had long wanted to try the braised pork made by Lin Zhiyi, but they were too short of money.
In the end, they couldn't help but come over. If Lin Zhiyi could buy on credit, they would definitely pay him back when they had money in the future.
"sure."
Lin Zhiyi said with a smile.
Five years later, these two adults also had to return to the capital. After Li Wenjing ascended the throne, they remained important ministers around Li Wenjing.
Even if we give them money on credit, we don’t have to worry about them not being able to pay it back.
"But don't worry, Miss Lin. We'll write the IOU and put our fingerprints on it. We'll definitely return it when we have money."
"good."
When they heard that they could buy on credit, everyone became interested.
Many people came to ask Lin Zhiyi about buying things on credit. Even if Lin Zhiyi agreed to do so, not everyone could do so.
She only agreed to help those who had a chance to return to the capital.
She is not a good person, nor does she want to leave a good reputation.
What's more, in this world, even if you do good things, you may not be rewarded.
But the money can be less. It used to be five taels of silver for a bowl. Since I just bought meat today, five taels can buy two bowls of braised pork and four bowls of rice.
After the meal, anyone who bought food from her could receive a bowl of Chinese medicine to prevent colds.
These were also the cold granules she took out from the space, and she flushed all of the five large bags, a total of fifty small bags.
Although it wasn't much, it was all the space she had.
Drink it today and return to normal tomorrow, and there will be three more bags.
Of course, Lin Zhiyi also sent two bowls to Li Wenjing and Zhu Sheng and placed them on the table in the carriage.
Li Wenjing frowned when he saw the brown medicine in the bowl.
"Mr. Li, finish your drink. I'll take the bowl downstairs for Madam Fang to wash."
Li Wenjing did not move. "I am in good health, so there is no need for any precautions."
Zhu Sheng explained, "Miss Lin, please don't let our master drink this bitter soup."
Their master is most afraid of taking medicine.
The master has been afraid of taking medicine since he was a child, and even the Queen Mother can't persuade him.
"This medicine isn't bitter. If you don't drink it, I'll take it away and give it to someone else."
Li Wenjing glanced at Lin Zhiyi, and without saying a word, he picked up the medicine bowl and started drinking. When it went down his throat, he thought to himself that it was not bitter at all.
He drank it in one gulp and put the bowl down.
But Zhu Sheng was stunned.
Is this medicine really not bitter?
Zhu Sheng picked up the medicine bowl and took a tentative sip. It was not bitter at all, and even had a hint of sweetness.
After Lin Zhiyi got off the carriage, he couldn't help but praise her: "Miss Lin is so nice. She is the daughter of Master Lin. If she hadn't been married before, she would have been with the master..."
Seeing Li Wenjing's gaze, he quickly slapped his mouth, "It was I who spoke nonsense, I deserved to be beaten. I will withdraw first. I will be guarding outside the carriage. If the master needs anything, you can call me."
"Well, step back."
Li Wenjing said lightly.
Li Wenjing was the only one left in the carriage.
He took out the flashlight he always carried with him, played with it for a while, and muttered to himself, "Yes, if Miss Lin hadn't been married..."
Thinking of that time when he opened his eyes and Lin Zhiyi was lying on him and kissing him, and thinking of their mouth to mouth at that time, Li Wenjing's face turned red for a moment.
That day, his first reaction was anger.
I was angry that Lin Zhiyi had flirted with me.
Even though he is in a bad state now, he would not be bullied like this.
Later, when he learned that she had saved him, he felt a little disappointed.
Instead, he hoped that Lin Zhi intended to bully him.
"So what if she's been married..."
At least when she loves someone, she can give her heart unconditionally.
It can be seen from Qin Lang that even though he is a poor boy and even though he is useless, Lin Zhiyi still resolutely marries him.
Unlike the women around him, all of them have ulterior motives.
How could he not envy Qin Lang?
Suddenly hearing a noise behind him, Li Wenjing turned around and saw Lin Zhiyi and Zhao Zhan opening the back door of the carriage.
"Brother Zhao, it's expected to rain tonight. I've prepared some tarpaulins. You Jinwu Guard brothers should also set up a few more tents. Don't sleep outside tonight."
"Well, Miss Lin is really thoughtful."
Li Wenjing frowned, got off the carriage, and walked around to the back of the carriage, "Miss Lin, I'm here to help you too."
