Pastoral Bamboo Fragrance

Chapter 581
During the meal, Li Zhu remembered how many times Chen Jin cleaned the new bowl when he stayed at his house, so he deliberately asked him: "How many times do I need to wash it this time?"

Chen Jin smiled without saying a word, picked up her water glass and took a sip, then looked at her with raised eyebrows, Li Zhu rewarded him with a shrimp with a smile.

Chen Jin praised: "It's delicious. No wonder those people didn't want to leave after they came."

"Then you can eat more."

"The scenery here is very beautiful. Let's live here when I retire and return to my hometown in the future, okay?"

Li Zhu smiled with crooked eyebrows, and replied: "Okay."

After dinner, it began to rain patter outside.Chen Jin washed up early and took Li Zhu to bed to rest.Li Zhuwo was in his arms. When she thought about the Li family, she tentatively asked, "Ah Jin, can you understand what happened between me and my parents?" His family was harmonious, and Li Zhu was not sure if he could Understand your situation.Back then, Cai Qing felt sorry for her, so she could understand her more deeply than others.

Chen Jin slightly pondered and said: "Although I have not experienced it personally, I have handled similar disputes. I think I should be able to understand your situation. But it would be an exaggeration to say that I completely empathize with you, because I am not you after all. However, I We respect all your decisions."

"Well, that's enough."

Chen Jin hugged her tighter, and said in a low voice: "We met too late, it would be better if it was earlier." If it was earlier, she wouldn't have to suffer so much.

Li Zhu looked for a more comfortable position in his arms, and said openly: "It's okay, everything is over." In fact, it was Li Zhu who suffered the most.After being neglected and abused for more than ten years, he died in the end.I hope she will have a good birth in the next life.

In the morning of the next day, Li Zhu started to pack the luggage with Xiaochun and the others.

Take away what is available, and give away or put away what is not in use.

She didn't let the maid handle the things in her room, and tidied things up slowly by herself.

The old clothes are no longer needed, most of them have been given away, and a few of the favorites are kept.There are also some book manuscripts to be boxed away.

Li Zhu accidentally found some paintings that Cai Qing gave her.

In the dark bamboo forest, her looming back, and her smiling face in the peach blossom forest.It's not long, but it makes people feel like a world away.Li Zhu just sighed with emotion, the touch in his heart was not as deep as before.

She was watching intently, when she suddenly heard footsteps coming from the door.

Chen Jinyi looked at her at the door.

Li Zhu showed him the painting generously.

Chen Jin appraised it carefully, and said lightly: "The painting is not bad. But I can also paint."

Li Zhu smiled and said nothing.

A few days passed, and soon it was time to part.The local specialties presented by Aunt Li and fellow villagers piled up like a hill.Li Zhu thanked everyone and politely accepted it.

On the day of departure, County Magistrate Wang and his wife also came to see him off, as did people from the Qian Mansion.After Li Zhu entered Beijing, he planned to visit Mr. Qian, but unexpectedly, he went to Jiangnan to visit his friends.

On the way, Li Zhu said to Mrs. Wang: "We are far away in the northwest, and we are out of our reach. If any of my relatives bully others or exploit our neighbors, please deal with it fairly, don't worry about it."

Mrs. Wang looked admiring: "Young Madam really understands righteousness."

Li Zhu smiled and said a few words modestly.She said this to prevent the Li family's family from pretending to be powerful and doing evil in her name.Later, Li Zhu's words came true.Not long after, Li Dafu and Xiao's family used Chen Jin's name to forcibly buy the neighboring land. Yang Mo wrote a letter to Li Zhu, and Li Zhu forwarded it to Chen Jin, and Chen Jin wrote a letter to him. County Magistrate Wang, let him deal with it fairly.

The county magistrate Wang lost his scruples, and first ordered the Li family to return the family's field, and punished the head of the household, Li Dafu, according to the law.Everyone in the Li family completely stopped after this incident.And Li Zhu and Chen Jin also got the reputation of killing relatives with righteousness and not showing favoritism.
