Need for money

Early the next morning, Lin Jingzhi woke up early as usual, he didn't know when he fell asleep last night, he just felt that his eyelids were heavy and a little sore, it was very laborious to open them, and he yawned again and again.

After putting on his clothes and walking to the outhouse, Zhidong had already got up early and fetched clean water with a wooden basin.

Maids are meant to serve the master, and the master wants to get up early to practice martial arts, so they naturally have to develop the habit of getting up earlier to serve.

When he came to the wooden basin, he picked up the water and splashed it on his face. After being stimulated by the cold water, Lin Jingzhi cheered up a little, rubbed his face hard a few times, and his brain was completely awake.

The digging of the canal officially started today. There are too many things to do, but there is no time to be lazy.

After hastily washing up and asking Zhidong to tie up his long hair, Lin Jingzhi went straight to Aunt Yu's courtyard, but when he reached the destination, he didn't see Aunt Yu, but met the person who sent Lin Tian here to learn martial arts. Lin Zhou.

It was the mature and charming figure of this woman yesterday that caused him to toss and turn until the middle of the night before he fell asleep in a daze.

"My concubine greets the second master." Seeing Lin Jingzhi also coming, Lin Zhou hurriedly pulled Lin Tian up to greet him. She didn't dare to meet Lin Jingzhi's eyes, but just lowered her head, her pretty face blushing.

Yesterday she saw that Lin Jingzhi was emotionally moved, and she was afraid that he would follow her footsteps to her small courtyard to rest, but she tossed and frightened until midnight, before closing her eyes and taking a nap.

The moment Lin Zhou lowered his head, Lin Jingzhi saw that her complexion was not good and she was very tired, and said, "Early morning is the best time of the day to practice martial arts. If you feel that you wake up too early in the future, you will feel a little tired." , let the maids bring Tian’er over, anyway, since this is in the mansion, there won’t be any trouble.”

Seeing that Lin Jingzhi was wrong, Mrs. Lin Zhou mistakenly thought that she was sleepy because she got up too early, and she was slightly relieved. The real reason is really hard to explain. A misunderstanding is better. She hurriedly said: "Thank you. The second master is concerned, and the concubine is fine."

After the adults had finished speaking, Lin Tiancai let go of the little hand held by his mother, and gave Lin Jingzhi a respectful salute, "Nephew Lin Tian, ​​please greet uncle."

"Get up." Lin Jingzhi bent down and hugged Lin Tian up. Maybe it was because he had to exercise every morning recently. Lin Tian's white face used to be much darker and thinner, but Those eyes are very bright, showing that the little boy is full of energy, "My God, have you been naughty recently, making your mother angry?"

"No, Tian'er didn't make my mother angry!" Lin Tian hugged Lin Jingzhi's neck and giggled.

Wringing the silk handkerchief in his hand, Lin Zhou, who was a little scared to face Lin Jingzhi, stood aside. Seeing Lin Jingzhi looking at him, he quickly lowered his head again, and said, "Tian'er is really very tired these days. Good boy, I didn't make my concubine angry."

"Okay, Tian'er is the most obedient." Lin Jingzhi put his arms around Lin Tian's neck, and gave him a hard poke on his face, and Lin Tian immediately burst out laughing happily.

While laughing, Lin Jingzhi would inadvertently sneak a few glances at Lin Zhou, whose cheeks were burning.

He recruited the maid from Aunt Yu's small courtyard, and after inquiring, she found out that Aunt Yu had left the mansion early in the morning and said she would be back in a while, but half an hour later, she still disappeared.

Lin Jingzhi still wanted to go to the wasteland outside the city in a hurry. After thinking about it, he left a message for the servant girl to pass on to Aunt Yu, and after breakfast, he went to the wasteland outside the city to look for him.

"Yu'er is not here, so let Tian'er and these little maids play here for a while, and it will be good for his health to run around more." Seeing that Aunt Yu was not there, Lin Jingzhi gave Lin Zhou an order .

Lin Zhou didn't dare to raise her head, so she responded, paused, and then said: "Recently, the manor is busy with things, and the second master should pay more attention to his own body."

"Well, I see." Lin Jingzhi nodded, before leaving,.He glanced at the fullness of Lin Zhou's chest indiscriminately.

Lin Zhou seemed to have sensed something, her head lowered a little deeper

Leaving Aunt Yu's small courtyard, Lin Jingzhi went straight to the hall. In the open space in front of the hall entrance, he met the chief steward, Pang Lu. Pang Lu was standing in front of a group of men giving a dignified speech.

"This old slave pays my respects to my second master." Seeing Lin Jingzhi approaching, the chief manager hurriedly bowed down to salute, and then the other men also bowed down to pay his respects.

Lin Jingzhi knew almost all of these men, they were the shopkeepers and handymen in the Lin family's shop.

"Come on, digging canals in wasteland is a huge project, and you should pay more attention to it in the future." Lin Jingzhi asked with a helping hand.

"Yes." Everyone responded in unison.

He beckoned and signaled the chief steward to go aside, Lin Jingzhi said: "A lot of people went to the wasteland yesterday, can we let them have breakfast smoothly today? Today is the first day, and this big event of eating can't happen Something went wrong."

"Second Master, don't worry, the old slave sent someone to the village outside the city yesterday to get some food, and delivered it together with the kitchen utensils for cooking, and handed over the matter to Si Mo, who thought it would be fine. What's going on?" The chief manager bent down and explained.

Hearing that Shi Mo was watching over there, Lin Jingzhi felt relieved, and gave the chief steward a few more instructions, then he led a dozen or so guards towards the gate of the Lin Mansion.

Walking to the door, I happened to meet Aunt Yu who had rushed back from outside.

Aunt Yu walked hurriedly, panting slightly, her forehead was covered with fine sweat, she seemed to have traveled a long way, when she saw Lin Jingzhi coming out of the gate, she stopped and secretly gave Lin Jingzhi winked.

He waved his hand and signaled the guards to lead the horses to follow from a distance. Lin Jingzhi walked a few steps quickly and walked side by side with Aunt Yu. When the sharp-eyed guards saw Aunt Yu, they turned around and ran back to the mansion to lead the tall horse. black steed.

"Yu'er, did you go out of the mansion in the morning to meet the hidden guards?" Lin Jingzhi asked when he saw that the guards of the Lin family were more than ten feet down, and it was impossible to hear his own voice.

Aunt Yu nodded, looked around again, and saw that there were no passers-by on the street, so she replied in a low voice: "Early this morning, before dawn, I received a message from the secret guard asking me to meet outside the mansion." News, Second Master, there is another big event happening over there."

While talking, Aunt Yu pointed to the north.

Lin Jingzhi was startled when he heard the words, and secretly cried out, could it be that something went wrong with the newly ascended emperor?If this is the case, that would be incredible.

A while ago when the late emperor passed away, Lin Jingzhi was frightened and worried. It wasn't until the next day that the crown prince enthroned and pardoned the world, and the next few days were calm, did he put his heart back into his stomach. Could it be that it took so long? , Are those people with bad intentions still unwilling to give up?

He has traveled from modern times, so he is not interested in the character of loyalty to the emperor. What he cares about is nothing but the situation of the Lin family and the suffering people in the world.

"What happened?" Lin Jingzhi asked hastily.

Aunt Yu also understood the current situation of the Lin family. In order not to worry Lin Jingzhi too much, she quickly replied: "The assassins north of the border heard that a large area of ​​locust plagues broke out in the north of the dynasty. All the tribes violated the frontier again, and not long after, the late emperor passed away. Before the late emperor died, General Wang Xiwang, who was guarding the frontier, planned to stick to the border, but after hearing the news, he knew that he must stick to it If they were defeated, they took the initiative to attack decisively and led their subordinates deep into the prairie, and within a few days, they defeated several larger forces in the Tuthorn tribe one by one."

Hearing this, Lin Jingzhi heaved a sigh of relief, and it should be a good thing to defeat the stabbing man, and he secretly praised Wang Xi in his heart that he really deserves to be a famous queen.

But Aunt Yu's subsequent words made him exclaim,

"However, although General Wang led the army to defeat the major tribes of the Tushi people, he paid a heavy price, and he himself even left his life on the prairie!"
