Chapter 27

Everyone suddenly realized that they were ashamed of their own short-sightedness. In this world, only those who read a lot and have profound knowledge are the real richest people!Both Shi Wen and Da Shan were deeply inspired. Lin Chun didn't know that today's actions would cause a wave of reading in Yuxiang Town in the future, and also raise the intellectual and cultural quality of the old and young in Yuxiang Town to a new level. The prosperity of Xiangzhen and people's determination and long-term vision for the future.

"Father, Uncle Dashan, this box will stay here. We will move these books into this black wooden box, and then carry the box under the bed. I have a use for this mahogany box. I want to lead you into the urn. Then close the door and beat the dogs, and finally send them all to prison." Lin Chun said after giving instructions to everyone, his tone getting colder and colder.

Everyone rushed forward to take action, Lin Chunze went to the bed on the other side, put away the quilt and new sheets, and replaced them with half-old coarse cloth sheets, and waited for everyone to move the books, Lin Chun put the mousetrap behind the door I took a few and put them one by one in an empty mahogany box, and covered it with a layer of red cloth, which looked very precious, as if there were a lot of gold, silver and jewels under the red cloth... Everyone thought it was scary, this If you get caught... just thinking about it will hurt your hand!
Then Lin Chun let everyone out of the house, arranged the remaining mouse traps and a few rounded wooden sticks in the house, closed the door and left the house, and entered the next room. In the next room, several government officials According to Lin Chun's instructions, the tables, stools and other things have been moved to the corner of the courtyard and covered with straw, and the things in the house have also been packed in wooden boxes. Except for a large wooden bathtub looming behind the light gauze, there is nothing in the house. No more, at this moment Lin Chun asked the servants to dig seven or eight holes in the house. Some thin wooden needles were inserted in the holes. After covering it up, Lin Chun also sprinkled some powder on the bathtub, then exited the room and closed the door.

The kitchen is no exception, mouse traps and traps are used together. Uncle Dashan said that after this incident, he will rebuild a bigger kitchen for himself, just as the house is being built at home, and he will also boil water and cook for the workers.So Lin Chun didn't feel distressed. There was still kindling in the stove, and flammable straw and firewood were piled up beside the stove. The iron pot on the stove had been removed. As long as there was a little bit of grass or other flammable items fell into the stove , will definitely catch fire.

Datou and Erya held Guaiguai and Dudu in their arms, Lin Chun closed the small gate of the yard, and took everyone to Uncle Dashan's house. After a few people had a light meal at noon, several yamen servants and Shi Wen hid outside the yard of Lin Chun's house. On the big tree far away, Lin Chun carefully entered the kitchen and lit a fire at the chimney, making others think that he was busy with the New Year’s Eve dinner at home. The things went to the ancestral grave at the east end of the village.

"Dafu, have you cleaned up? Dad told you to hurry up and prepare to worship the ancestor's grave!" Lin Dafu's daughter-in-law stood at the kitchen door and shouted to Lin Dafu who was preparing in the room.Lin Dafu knew that Lin Family Village would not celebrate the New Year peacefully tonight, so he lingered in the house for a long time, trying to help Lin Chun procrastinate for a while, and went to her house with his father and Lin Chun for a while.

"Here we come..." Lin Dafu lingered out of the room, seeing that his father was a little unhappy, he hurried forward to take the basket from the village chief's father, and supported the village chief with his younger brother The old man left the house and arrived at the ancestral grave. Many villagers had already paid respects to their relatives and returned. The village chief gave Lin Dafu a reproachful look. Worshiping Pei Wushuang at the ancestral grave, he didn't notice the look in his father's eyes, only thinking that the first thing Da Ya told him to do had been completed.

The son of the village chief's family looked at the ancestral grave of old man Lin's family, and looked up. He saw three brothers and sisters Lin Chun kneeling in front of Lin Dalang's daughter-in-law's grave, burning Mingqian. Sad and comforting, I lamented the understanding and hardships of Lin Chunsan's three brothers and sisters, and looked at my son again, and didn't blame him anymore, thinking that my son also sympathized with these three children!well……

Lin Chun noticed that the village chief's family was coming, and knew that the rich uncle must have been procrastinating at home for a long time. It was almost dark at the moment, but the old man Lin's family and Erniang Liu's family didn't come. Presumably they were looking for treasures for themselves, right? !It's just that he can't hear their heart-piercing shouts anymore, Lin Chun feels a little pity.

Sure enough, after a while, Lin Chun saw thick smoke rising from the direction of his house. Lin Dafu was actually paying attention to the direction of Lin Chun's house. Seeing the thick smoke billowing into the sky, he immediately shouted: "Dad, Dad, look at that Is it the direction of Da Ya's house, why is there so much smoke, is it because the fire in the stove has not been extinguished?"

Hearing Lin Dafu's shout, Lin Tianliang hastily turned his head and looked towards the foot of the mountain at the west end of the village. He saw that the direction of Da Ya's house was indeed full of smoke, and he could still see the faint light of the fire, which was very conspicuous in the dark night sky. After a while, The village was boiling, and everyone ran to Lin Chun's house in the west of the village with basins and buckets, shouting, "The west end of the village is on fire! The west end of the village is on fire!" Everyone was frightened by the previous fire. Not bad, at this moment some old people in the village who had seen the fire in Xishan decades ago also came out of their homes, letting their children and wives help them go to Xishan.

"Sister, sister, our mountain is on fire, sister, let's go back and have a look!" Datou and Erya looked anxious, because Lin Chun didn't go into details with Datou and Erya beforehand. Almost crying, a little distressed, Lin Chun knew that Datou and Erya watched their house being repaired and decorated together, if it disappeared all of a sudden, they would definitely not be able to accept it for a while.

"Big girl, hurry up, take the village chief's grandfather to your house to see if the fire for your lunch has not been extinguished?!" The village chief was full of panic.

"How is it possible, I made breakfast today, and I ate light meals at Uncle Dashan's house at noon. Aunt Cuihua fried dumplings and asked us to eat dumplings and drink soup. There was no fire at home. I cooked all the dishes for dinner It’s easy to put it away, just heat it up, the weather is cold, even the kindling at noon should be cold by now! How could it catch fire?” Lin Chun also pretended to cry.

"Could it be that someone entered your house and set fire to it, but on this big day, every family is busy at home, could it be..." Lin Dafu asked with a puzzled face, Lin Chun was quite satisfied with Lin Dafu's acting skills.

"Father, I saw that there is nothing on the ancestral graves of Old Man Lin's family except for the worship items placed by the third sister and brother. The same is true of Liu Erniang's family. There is no trace at all. It can't be..." the village chief The second son's eyes are more poisonous, and his mind turns quickly.

When Lin Tianliang heard what his two sons said, he was also angry! "Let's go, Dafu follow me to have a look, Dagui is here, come and see us when the work is done!" Lin Tianliang was really anxious, he pulled Lin Dafu, called Da Ya and his third sister and brother, and ran to the west of the village.
