Chapter 109 Exploding Xuanzhou City

The happy event of finding the relief food was reported back to Xuanzhou two days later.

On this day, I was happy to celebrate the [-]th birthday of the prefect's wife.

The guests in the Fanghua Garden were all smiling, and they said double happiness.

Seeing the wrinkles on Madam Taishou's face burst into laughter, Lin Ruyu knew she was really happy.The birthday banquet had been going on for more than half an hour, and it was the first time that the prefect's wife smiled so sincerely.

Ye Changshi's wife smiled and said, "It's all right now, tens of thousands of people in the seven counties affected by the disaster can finally have a hot meal."

The creases at the corners of the Taishou’s wife’s eyes widened a bit, “It’s getting colder, and the people not only need to eat, but also need to add clothes. Long live, who is thousands of miles away from the imperial capital, is also worried about the disaster-stricken people in our three states. I am old and incompetent, but I also want to share my worries for you. In addition to the gifts from today's birthday banquet, I have donated the fields and houses in Le County to resettle the people affected by the disaster."

All the wives who came to the birthday banquet bowed their heads unanimously and remained silent.

Seven counties were affected by the disaster, and they have donated money, food and materials three times.Donating again is not a pain in the flesh, but a pain in the bones.

Lin Ruyu, who was kneeling beside her second aunt, straightened her body, the main event finally arrived!
Mrs. Ye looked at Lin Ruyu with a smile, this little girl is not only beautiful in appearance, but also has such a lively expression, which is really rare.

The prefect's wife saw everyone's expressions, and her eyes fell on the second wife of the Lin family and the daughter of the Lin family, and said gently, "Woe is a disaster, and blessings depend on it."

Ok?
Don't urge donations?
The guests who wished to bury their heads in their cups and saucers looked up at the prefect's wife.

"The Wolong embankment broke, and you all generously donated money to help the victims. The mistress of the Lin family came to see the prefect with illness, and donated food, money and medicine." The prefect's wife praised the Lin family, changed the subject, and said sternly:
"I don't want such a righteous act of the Lin family to be hated by the villain. They sent people into the Lin family's shop and cargo ship several times to destroy the goods. As a result, hundreds of pieces of silk and satin worth tens of thousands of taels brought by the Lin family from Huzhou were soaked in the river water! The prefect sent people Catch the murderer, no matter who instigates the murderer, once caught, there will be no mercy!"

Everyone has heard about this incident more or less, some feel sorry for the Lin family, some gloat over misfortune.

Aunt Lin lowered her head to ponder why the prefect's wife brought up this matter at this juncture, and Second Aunt Lin looked at the guests calmly, wondering which one was behind the scenes.

Once you find it, you can't kill him!
Wen lowered her head and pretended to be uncomfortable, and secretly whispered to Lin Ruyu, "Jiaojiao, I'm so nervous."

"Second Aunt, me too." After all, it was the first time organizing such a big event, Lin Ruyu was both excited and scared, her porcelain-white face was glowing red.

The prefect's wife continued, "As the old man said just now: misfortune is where fortune rests. The Lin family found that the stripes on the dyed cloth were somewhat natural, so they came up with the idea of ​​using cloth as a canvas. They made the cloth Show it to the old man, but the old man is not good at this way, so he sent someone to send the cloth to Hezhou and hand it over to Mr. Songmian. Mr. Songmian got excited after seeing it, so he made a painting and handed it over to the old man.”

The prefect's wife raised her hand, and two maidservants in identical clothes stepped forward holding the scroll.Everyone stared wide-eyed at the ten-foot-long canvas that slowly unfolded.

"It's so beautiful! It's just like the real thing!"

"Mr. Jiuwen's name, it's the first time I've seen his old man's real work, he is worthy of being the master of painting in our six states, good, really good!"

"I didn't expect fine silk to be used for painting. How much is this painting worth?"

Mrs. Song whose daughter was slapped by Lin Ruyu said sourly, "I don't like this, I don't know!"

"..."

How much silver taels?Thousands to tens of thousands are possible, Lin Ruyu pursed her lips and smiled happily.

The wives were discussing in low voices, but the male guest garden was already boiling, "Master Taishou, where is Mr. Songmian's masterpiece, I beg you to take a look."

"My lord, Caomin wants to see it too."

"..."

Seeing that everyone was scratching their heads and scratching their heads anxiously, the eunuch smiled, "You can not only see Mr.'s paintings, but those who are lucky enough can take them home in your sleeves and hang them in the hall to enjoy every day."

"Wow..."

Seeing everyone blushing with excitement, Lin Erye and Zheng Changming laughed so hard that they couldn't see their teeth.

After the atmosphere was heightened, the prefect said the theme, "During the Double Ninth Festival, Wangxiang Mountain in this garden will hold a calligraphy and painting bazaar. At the meeting, not only Mr. Songmian's paintings, but also my famous Xuanzhou masters will paint on the spot. All paintings , the one with the highest price will get it. All proceeds from the charity sale will be used for disaster relief."

In the back garden, the prefect's wife straightened up and raised her hand to salute, "On the day of Chongyang, I planted dogwood all over my body, waiting for you to visit me in the Wangxiang Pavilion, and do my part for the disaster-stricken people in Xuanzhou."

After this extraordinary birthday banquet, the Chongyang Poetry and Painting Charity Fair exploded in Xuanzhou City in an instant, and the threshold of the Lin family's gate was about to be crushed.

The guests are all here for the invitation of the Chongyang Charity Bazaar.

There are two hundred invitations for the bazaar, and each invitation is limited to three people.The prefect's mansion has one hundred sheets, which are prepared for Xuanzhou officials and aristocratic families; the Lin family has one hundred sheets, which are prepared for Xuanzhou merchants.

Xuanzhou aristocratic families and merchants are the main buyers of this bazaar. The list of invited guests has been drawn up, and the Lin family has [-] invitations left, which can be used as favors.

It was these twenty that everyone grabbed.

If you can't get into the bazaar, you can't witness the masterpieces of painting saints with your own eyes!If you can't get into the bazaar, it means you don't have enough status in Xuanzhou, and you don't have enough face!

Squeeze your head and go in too!

After dissipating all the wealth, I want to get the authentic painting of the saint!
There are constant guests in the front yard of the Lin family, and tea in the back yard.

Lin Ruyu and her second aunt had just sent away a relative and female family member who could not be reached at all, when the little maid who sent the message ran in and whispered, "Girl, Xia Cai An has arrived from far away."

Lin Ruyu stood up, "Second Aunt, I'll take a look at the front yard."

Where is Cai An Ziyuan's relative? Why does my sister want to see him?Lin Rumei moved closer to her sister, "Sister, I want to go too."

"Okay." Lin Ruyu took her younger sister's hand and whispered, "Let's take a look behind the screen. The second younger sister should be gentle with her hands and feet, so as not to make any noise."

"Okay." My sister is willing to take her with me, no matter what, Lin Rumei couldn't suppress her excitement, "Sister, who is this person?"

Although the second sister was only ten years old, Lin Ruyu didn't coax her, "Let's go and see if he is the bad guy who played tricks in Wusha Town."

Lin Rumei's eyes widened immediately, "If it is, let my father arrest him and send him to the yamen!"

There is no need to send it to the Yamen, and it cannot be sent.Lin Ruyu held her younger sister's hand, walked lightly through the back door into the front hall, and looked out through the gap in the screen.

There are three young men sitting in the hall, An Ziyuan lives in the middle.

Lin Ruyu recognized him as real at a glance, and looked carefully at the two people who came with him, and confirmed that the fake An Ziyuan was not among them, then pulled her sister out of the front hall, and shook her head at Zhuqing who was waiting by the back door.

Zhuqing saluted and ran to deliver the letter.

Lin Rumei asked in a low voice, "Sister, isn't it?"

"No." Lin Ruyu pulled her sister back and heard her whisper, "The person sitting in the middle is very pleasing to the eye."

Lin Ruyu smiled.Yes, An Ziyuan is really pleasing to the eye, he looks like a gentleman.

In the back alley of the government office, Fake An Ziyuan He Jiongming was furious, "Say it again."

An Fengchun's scalp was numb, and his tongue was a little knotted, "The Xuanzhou Yamen doesn't...capture the head and replace Yunzhou."

He Jiongming caressed his left sleeve, and slowly raised his eyes, "You mean, Xiacai Granary was taken over by a small captor?"
