Chapter 317 Fame and Fortune



Lin Yinan's words deeply moved the Liao family father and sons, as well as Shi Dahe.

Liao Changyi's eyes shone brightly, and the excitement in his heart was like a hot current that could not be stopped. He seemed to be able to see into the future and see that one day he would also have students all over the world.

Liao Zongwei, with trembling hands, handed the booklet back to Lin Yinan.

"Lord City, I've finished reading it."

Lin Yinan did not take the booklet, but instead began to examine it closely.

"Did you understand it?"

The contents of the paper involved secret techniques, which Liao Zongwei did not want to reveal aloud, so he nodded solemnly.

I understood about 70-80%.

So, Lin Yinan called Lin Fu over.

“Afu, stop what you’re doing and teach all four of them to recognize all the words on this paper in the next two days.” Lin Yinan emphasized again, “Just teach them to recognize the words on the paper.”

"Yes, young lady!"

Lin Fu took the booklet and carefully put it into his pocket.

Lin Yinan said to Liao Zongwei and his two sons and Shi Dahe, "You should learn to recognize the characters on it as soon as possible. I will come to check it in three days."

She is both decisive and courageous in her actions.

Su Yunzhi watched her silently, his eyes clear, bright and firm. He had always admired Lin Yinan's character; she never pursued fame or fortune.

Su Yunzhi felt a sudden, inexplicable twitch in her heart before slowly averting her gaze.

Su Kunliang glanced at his son and couldn't help but feel guilty.

They consider themselves scholars, often viewing themselves as superior and developing a strange sense of superiority, leading to sectarianism, mutual exclusion, and mutual contempt.

For them, studying was nothing more than a means to bring honor to their family and glory to their lineage.

It turns out that reading can be done simply for a living, or for the preservation of skills...

"Lord Lin, may I see the contents of that paper?" Su Kunliang asked somewhat embarrassedly.

“Okay,” Lin Yinan said. “Afu, show it to Master Su.”

Su Kunliang took the booklet, glanced at it briefly, and then quickly closed it.

"I... I'd rather not watch it."

Lin Yinan smiled brightly, "It's alright."

In the end, Su Kunliang returned the booklet to Lin Fu.

Lin Yinan entrusted the decision of all the wood needed for printing to the Liao family (father and two sons) and Shi Dahe.

As Lin Yinan walked out of the county government office, she looked up at the sky. Although the sun had been shining for the past few days, the temperature had been unusually hot and humid.

"Qianwu, is it almost noon?" she asked Qianwu, pointing to the reflection of the big tree in front of the county government office.

Qianwu nodded. "That's right, it's almost noon."

"I'm hungry, let's go back and eat. I wonder what delicious food Chika has made."

"Everything Chika makes tastes delicious."

Chika is very talented at cooking, but Chima only knows how to eat.

The two walked and talked, and when they were almost at their doorstep, they saw an old man running towards them from not far away.

"Anan, wait a moment."

The person who called her was Uncle Lin. As he approached, he pulled off his straw hat.

He used his straw hat to fan himself with one hand and took out the water bag from his waist with the other, gulping down water.

Seeing his thin and bony appearance, Lin Yinan was afraid that he would choke.

"Uncle Lin, drink slowly."

After a while, Uncle Lin let out a comfortable sigh, as if the water had injected vitality into his body.

"Hey! Anan, the wind direction has changed. I've been watching the sky these past few days and it looks like it's going to rain heavily. Is that weather-reading kid from the Yun family here?"

Lin Yinan knew that Uncle Lin was referring to Yun Liu. "He's still handling business in Nanzhou Prefecture and probably won't be back for a while. Uncle Lin, when do you think the rain will start?"

The rapeseed in the field will be ready for harvest soon, and this rain is really bad!

Uncle Lin wiped the sweat from his face with his sleeve. "I'm not entirely sure, but I reckon it'll be over in three to five days. Should we harvest the rapeseed in the field?"

What are your thoughts on the rapeseed's maturity level?

“We can accept it, but Ding Gui said he’s not quite ready yet.”

"Then we'll take them," Lin Yinan said decisively. "If they get wet in the rain, the rapeseed will become damp, moldy, and easily rot."

"Yes, we can't let several months of hard work go to waste."

"Uncle Lin, could you please go and tell the village chief to arrange for people to start harvesting the rapeseed this afternoon, and try to finish it in the next two days?"

Uncle Lin pulled his straw hat up over his head and said in a loud voice, "Okay! I'll go right now."

"Qianwu, let's go back to the county government office and inform them."

Just as Lin Yinan was about to go back to the county government office to find Lin Yiheng, she heard her brother calling her from behind.

"Anan, the sun is so strong, why haven't you gone home yet?"

Lin Yiheng gave Qianwu a reproachful look. This girl only thinks about wielding swords and spears all day long, and doesn't even know how to find a cuckold for her master.

"Brother, you're back just in time. I have something to tell you..."

Lin Yinan told him what Uncle Lin had said.

Lin Yiheng frowned as he looked up at the sky, only to see the blazing sun baking the earth like a steamer.

"It's better to believe it's true. Even if it was planted late, we can still harvest about 70 or 80 percent by now. I'll go and talk to Yuanzhi and Qingfeng."

"Okay, I'll go to Yunyu's house."

Since it was mealtime, the brother and sister split up and went to find someone.

Yunyu's house was arranged on another street.

When Lin Yinan and Qianwu knocked on the door, Yunyu's wife, Anshi, was setting the table.

"Anan, you've come at the right time. Sit down and have a meal with us."

"Third sister-in-law, I've come to talk to third brother about something."

"He's organizing documents in his study. Please come in and sit down."

Madam An invited them in and enthusiastically instructed the maid to bring out an extra set of bowls and chopsticks. Qianwu then went to the kitchen with the maid to eat.
