Need for money

Shi Mo knew that those guards were looking for his master, so he summoned a servant and asked him to run forward to attract the guards. Lin Jingzhi's heart jumped a few times, with a bad premonition, he took the The steamed bun was stuffed into his mouth, he chewed it with big mouthfuls, and swallowed it in his stomach after a few bites.

Aunt Yu's eyesight was sharper than Lin Jingzhi's, not only did she notice that the guards were not holding lunch boxes, but she also saw anxious expressions on their faces from a long distance away.

The servant who went up to him ran and yelled loudly, and finally attracted the attention of the guards. After the guards heard Lin Jingzhi's position clearly, they didn't stop, passed the servant directly, and went straight to the simple building. kitchen.

During the running of more than a dozen horses, a burst of sand and dust was brought up, which made the servant choke and cough again and again, some also got into his eyes, and when he rubbed it with his hands, tears already overflowed.

Seeing the eagerness of those guards, Shi Mo's expression changed slightly, and he stepped forward a few steps, finally realizing that something was wrong.

"Shi Mo, find someone to bring our mounts here." Lin Jingzhi ordered, and stood with his hands behind his back.

"Yes." Shi Mo replied, and hurriedly ran to the side to handle the matter assigned by the master.

The guards swung their horses and whipped their whips at a very fast speed. After a while, they came to the kitchen ten feet away. After seeing Lin Jingzhi and Aunt Yu clearly, they restrained themselves a little, raised the reins, and slowed down a little. , When the horse rushed to the front and back, the guard in front turned over and jumped off the horse without waiting for the mount to stop.

The person who came was Hu Ding, the captain of the Lin family's guard. After Hu Ding fell to the ground, he rushed two steps out of inertia, and knelt down in front of Lin Jingzhi, "Second master, Aunt Yu, my servant."

Afterwards, the guards following Hu Ding also jumped off their horses, knelt down and greeted the two of them.

Lin Jingzhi felt a gust of wind blowing towards his face, and dust and sand were everywhere. He instinctively raised his hand to cover his mouth and nose, and when the dust had settled down, he fanned it lightly with his hand, and replied, "Get up, what happened?" , so flustered?"

"Going back to the second master, something big has happened." Hu Ding rode a fine horse and ran here from Los Angeles in one breath, sweating profusely from exhaustion, panting for breath, halfway through speaking, he saw that there were still many servants in the kitchen, and straightened up Body, took two quick steps, leaned over to Lin Jingzhi's ear, and whispered: "The third master was robbed by gangsters in a courtyard outside the city."

"What!" Lin Jingzhi was shocked when he heard this.

"It's true, Second Lord, Madam, please return to the mansion immediately." After Hu Ding finished speaking, he took two steps back and knelt on the ground again.

Aunt Yu stood behind Lin Jingzhi, her body tensed up suddenly when Hu Ding stood up suddenly, she was ready to do it, and she didn't slow down again until Hu Ding backed off after reporting the matter.

"Go home!" Lin Jingzhi waved his hand and walked out of the wooden shed. At this time, two servants sent by Si Mo had already led him and Aunt Yu's mounts and ran over.

Although he didn't like Lin Lizhi, a rambunctious dude, anyway, this person was also the direct master of the Lin family, and now being robbed by gangsters in the other courtyard of the Lin family was no small matter.

Perhaps it was because this body and Lin Lizhi's half-brother relationship, Lin Jingzhi only felt that someone was pulling hard in his heart, and it was extremely uncomfortable.

Although Lin Jingzhi in the past was also annoyed at his third brother's failure to live up to expectations, Lin Lizhi was his younger brother after all, beating or scolding was fine, it was a means of caring after all, it was impossible to say that he had no feelings.

Reaching out to take the reins of the horse, Lin Jingzhi raised his left foot and stepped on the horse's stirrup, and turned over neatly. He was afraid that the old lady Lin would not be able to bear the blow when he heard the news, and would not answer Aunt Yu, so he flicked the whip first, and said to Aunt Yu He rushed in the direction of Los Angeles.

Although Hu Ding's voice was very low when he said the second sentence, she could not hide it from Aunt Yu's eyes and ears. She knew that something serious happened to the Lin family, jumped on the dark horse, and hurriedly chased after it. The guards of the Lin family did not Dare to be negligent, each stepped on their own horses and followed.

More than [-] tall horses galloped with their hooves, and wind and sand blew up everywhere they passed. Looking from a distance, it seemed that there was a gust of wind blowing on the official road.

About an hour later, Lin Jingzhi arrived at Los Angeles City on a white horse. When he came to the gate of the city, he rushed in without dismounting to let the guards patrol, scaring the two city gate guards who had just come up to him. Shouting in surprise, she ran away with her head in her arms, and Aunt Yu followed closely behind. The guards of the Lin family didn't take the guards seriously, and poured into the city one after another.

Because most of the refugees were persuaded by the Lin family to dig a canal in the wasteland in the east of the city, and the market was affected by the locust plague, prices soared, and the market was depressed, so there were not many pedestrians on the street at this time, and Lin Jingzhi was driving a white horse, just like that Flying in the market, but did not hit innocent people.

Arriving at the gate of Lin's mansion, Lin Jingzhi didn't care about bumping on the horse for a long time, his body was exhausted and his skeleton was sore, so he went straight to the small courtyard of Mrs. Lin.

Aunt Yu entered the Lin residence, hesitated for a moment, and followed. Now that the hidden guards of the Lin family are in charge of her, her participation in the investigation of Lin Lizhi's robbery must be indispensable. The two guards guarding the door stepped forward and pulled He took the reins of the two horses, one black and one white, and led them to the back door.

Rushing to the small courtyard, Lin Jingzhi didn't let the maids inform, so he opened the door and walked into the house. Mrs. Lin was leaning on the back of the chair and dozed off. Hearing the voice, he suddenly opened his eyes. The grandson rushed back hurriedly, his face softened, and he said: "You are not in good health, don't rush so fast, sit down and drink some tea."

"En." Lin Jingzhi saw that Mrs. Lin was still calm and didn't have any sudden illness, so he was relieved. He felt that his throat was a little dry, so he took the teacup brought by the maid and drank it vigorously. After taking two bites and taking two steps forward, he sat tightly under Mrs. Lin.

While walking, he carefully noticed that Old Madam Lin's eyes were red and swollen, obviously from crying just now.

After getting along for such a long time, Lin Jingzhi had already regarded this old woman as his own grandmother. Seeing this, he felt as if someone had suddenly stabbed his heart with a steel needle. The corners of his mouth twitched from the pain, and he hurriedly He comforted: "Grandma, don't worry, grandson will definitely do everything possible to get Lizhi back."

No matter how bad Lin Lizhi is, it is also the grandson of Mrs. Lin who grew up looking at her. Although his status is incomparable with Lin Jingzhi, he is also a relative who is connected with her blood. She can harden her heart to deal with herself Her husband's brothers and sisters, or the elder nephews of the Lin family, but when it was her offspring's turn, they couldn't be cruel.

In fact, the reason why Lin Lizhi became what he is today is not because she had no father to discipline her when she was a teenager, and she was too indulgent as a prostitute on weekdays.

Hearing that Lin Jingzhi was talking about serious business, Mrs. Lin pressed her aching heart and said in a deep voice, "Jingzhi, do you think the third child was kidnapped by the refugee or the dog official?"

"This?" Although Lin Jingzhi suspects that Wang Meng sent someone to do this, he can't make a conclusion prematurely before asking the whole story, "Grandma, who told you that Lizhi was robbed?" gone?"

"The housekeeper from the other courtyard outside the city told me that he is waiting for you to ask questions in the side room next to him."

After Mrs. Lin finished speaking, Lin Jingzhi stood up, bent over and said, "Grandma, you can leave this matter to your grandson, you just need to rest."

"Well, but if there is any progress, you must tell me in time." Mrs. Lin took a deep breath and closed her eyelids again.

Seeing Mrs. Lin's sluggish face due to the blow, Lin Jingzhi narrowed his eyes slightly, a cold light flashed, and when he turned around, his face was already gloomy, he clenched his fists, secretly ruthless, whoever dared Hurting one's relatives has to pay a heavy price!
