Chapter 187 Keep a low profile when there are good things going on at home
Lin Zhixiu was in Anjia, and she didn't get up until the sun was high every day.
Ren Baihui asked the chef she brought to show off all her special skills. There were three meals and refreshments every day, and none of them were the same!
Within two days, Lin Zhixiu's little face became round.
There are a lot of things to do in peace, so during the day they are the only two at home, chatting about family matters and other things, so that their life should not be too comfortable.
As the New Year is approaching, this evening, the Lin family received amazing good news!
The emperor suddenly sent his own eunuch Chen Big Fat and issued an imperial edict. The general meaning was that because of Lin Ji's meritorious service in rescuing the enemy, he was granted the title of Marquis of Renxin and passed down to three generations. He was given a gold watch and a reward of gold and silver.
This news is really too sudden.
Although the Lin family thought that the emperor would reward Lin Ji for the autumn hunt, they did not expect that a marquis would hit him on the head!
Lin immediately knelt on the ground, crying with excitement and choking up his sobs to thank the Lord for His grace.
Old Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Lin were stunned for a long time before they came to their senses. They were really pleasantly surprised.
After thanking Big Fatty Chen for sending him away, the old man waved his hand. Everyone in the Lin family, including the master and the servants, had a lot of money. At this moment, the entire Hou Mansion closed the door and rejoiced!
Lin Zhixiu is still in Anjia, and An Ning hasn't come back yet.
Li Cheng got the news early in the morning and ran over to tell her the good news.
He thought she would be very happy, but he didn't expect Lin Zhixiu to have a complicated expression after hearing this.
After being stunned for a while, he sighed to himself, this rule was unprecedented in this world! Although the emperor always treated his uncle well, he really didn't grant him a title.
This time, the Lin family was satisfied!
She could even imagine how happy those people were!
It becomes more difficult to realize your wish!
Seeing that she didn't respond, Li Cheng added, "It's mainly because my father thought that your uncle sacrificed his life to save him this time and was even injured, so he gave him such an honor! My father is really good to your uncle! Oh!
, By the way, there is some good news today! My father has agreed to review Li Feng’s case!" Lin Zhixiu became happy when he heard this, "This is good news, I will send someone to inform him immediately!"
Li Cheng hummed in his heart and quickly stopped him, "He's training my cavalry guards! He's not at home at all. Where did you go to notify him!? I got the letter, so I arranged for someone to tell him!"
Lin Zhixiu said excitedly, "Brother Li knows how happy he is!"
Li Cheng said, "I will be happy, and I am happy too, because it is still my second brother who is presiding over the trial!"
Lin Zhixiu was stunned, "His Royal Highness King Jin? He is not in the Criminal Department, so how could he be the one to preside over the trial?"
Li Cheng pouted and said, "Last time I was injured, my father was frightened..." He glanced at Lin Zhixiu.
Lin Zhixiu saw him looking at her and stared back.
He turned his head to avoid it. "My father was anxious and angry. He blamed the second brother for not taking good care of me, so he punished him. Actually, alas, how can I blame the second brother?! It was the second brother who led someone to find me!"
Lin Zhixiu asked coldly, "If you don't blame him, then who should blame you?"
Li Cheng didn't dare to look at her, thinking in his heart, it's not your fault?! But how could he dare to say this?
So he continued, "Maybe my father feels that I am too impatient. Isn't that right? I want to compensate my second brother! I leave such a big matter to my second brother!"
He was quite proud of it.
Lin Zhixiu sneered, "This is indeed a good thing for the Li family. But for the presiding officer, it may not be!"
Li Cheng said "Why?!"
Lin Zhixiu recalled the past. The person who was presiding over this case was a man named Zhang Jian. From the beginning of this case, he investigated enough, but in the end his head was not saved.
But I really don’t know what happened specifically. “How do I know why? You all know that your father will punish your second brother for no reason. So why would you think of him when there is something good going on?”
Li Cheng said, "But you know a thing or two about Li Feng's family. The facts are here! Just clarify the matter and the task is completed. You don't know that my second brother is smart! He will definitely not make mistakes."
of!"
Lin Zhixiu said, "You can say whatever you like! It's none of my business!"
Seeing her attitude, Li Cheng felt unhappy.
But she looked impatient and didn't dare to say anything. She muttered a few words silently and that was all.
Suddenly a little girl came to the door and said, "Girl, Madam, please come over! They say someone from the Lin family is here!"
Lin Zhixiu said, "Okay, I'll go! Then..." She looked at Li Cheng, "Have you arranged your affairs?!"
Li Cheng asked, "Of course my affairs have been arranged! Should you... let me do it?" For a girl, this is not an easy thing to do.
Lin Zhixiu hesitated for a moment, then said, "Don't worry about it, I've arranged everything. Just don't mess up your affairs. I guess the Lin family wants me to go back."
Li Cheng said, "Then it's inconvenient for you to contact me after you get home! How can I tell you how my affairs are going?" He was a little unhappy.
Lin Zhixiu said patiently, "I'll try to come back and stay for two days before the end of the year."
Li Cheng said, "If I have anything to do, I'll go..."
Lin Zhixiu's eyes widened: "Don't go into my house again!"
Li Cheng blinked and said to himself, there's nothing you can do if I go...so he didn't agree and just looked at her.
Lin Zhixiu said, "Did you hear that? Don't go into my house again! If anyone finds out, I'll be doomed!"
Li Cheng said, "Don't worry!" No one else will find out...
Lin Zhixiu thought she had made it clear and he agreed and left.
When they went to the back hall, it was indeed the old lady who was standing in front of her, Aunt Wang. When she saw Lin Zhixiu, Aunt Wang quickly saluted, "Third Miss! There's a big happy event in the family! Your uncle has been named the Marquis of Renxin! The family is here,
Everyone is so happy! The old lady asked you to go back, and the family will discuss how to celebrate!"
Lin Zhixiu smiled and said, "This is really a great favor from the emperor! I will go back early tomorrow morning!"
Aunt Wang said "...yes!"
After sending Aunt Wang away, Lin Zhixiu said, "Oh, this good news... will only be delivered in two days. I haven't finished my work, and I haven't had enough room yet!"
Ren Baihui said, "Years ago, I'll find another reason to let you come and stay for a few days!" Nuo Da's courtyard was quite lively with such a little man accompanying him.
Li Cheng came out from here and went directly to Li Jin's house.
It was a bit strange for Li Jin to take on such a big job while under lockdown. But he didn't think much about it and took over the materials written by Li Feng before he took office.
Li Cheng came and chatted with him. Li Jin listened with a smile and looked at the things in his hands.
Li Cheng saw that everyone around him was busy with things and no one paid attention to them, so he approached his second brother and said.
"Second brother, you know that my father gave Lin Ji the title of Marquis of Renxin, right?!"
Li Jin smiled and said, "If you don't tell me about this matter, where will the second brother know? The second brother hasn't gone to court yet! But... my father has been so good to Mr. Lin for decades, and it's not like that."
strangeness!"
Better than his own son! This Lin Ji has no ability but is blessed!
Li Cheng said, "I just told Axiu about this!"
Li Jin smiled and said, "Hey, I even called Axiu! Can you still meet this girl?!"
Li Cheng said, "She went to live at her uncle's house! I helped her family so much, so I was treated as a distinguished guest! Her aunt is a generous person. As long as Axiu is willing, I can meet her and have a few words."
!”
Li Jin said, "It won't be a problem if this continues. You still need to tell your father to make a decision as soon as possible! Mr. Lin Ji has taken another step forward. You have to strike while the iron is hot!"
Li Cheng said, "Haha! Okay! I'll tell you later! But Axiu is as smart as my second brother. She's also very powerful!"
Li Jin smiled and said, "You are good-looking and smart. My second brother is so lucky!"
Li Cheng said, "Really! However, she sometimes has strange ideas. Just now, I told her about my father asking my second brother to interrogate the Wen family case, and she said that this matter is a good thing for the Li family, but
It’s not a good thing for the people who are trying this case! What is she talking about?”
Li Jin frowned, "Did she tell you the reason?"
Li Cheng said, "No! I told her that maybe my father felt that he had punished the wrong second brother, and he couldn't bear it, so he wanted to compensate him! But she said that his father would punish his second brother for no reason, so why would he give him compensation?"
I asked why, but she didn’t tell me, she just said it was none of her business!”
Li Jin said calmly, "If I have a chance, I really want to meet this Axiu!" He didn't think that his father felt guilty for him and would give him any compensation... It's just that this "Axiu" would say this.
It's even more complicated.
Early the next morning, Lin Zhixiu packed up and returned home. When she arrived at the second gate, people in her yard came out to move things. As soon as she got off the carriage, Beifei saw the car turning this way. He whispered to Lin
He said, "Girl, my aunt is back."
Lin Zhixiuli ignored him and went straight into the second door and went back to the house.
It was Lin Jiangwan who came.
She got off the car at the door and saw several people moving things.
When the mother-in-law at the door saw her, she greeted her with a smile, "My aunt is here!"
Lin Jiangwan asked casually, "Who is back?"
The woman said, "It's the third girl. She stayed at her uncle's house for two days and came back early this morning!"
Lin Jiangwan snorted inwardly and walked inside with an expressionless face.
When we arrived at Mrs. Lin's courtyard, Mrs. Lin got up early. She was in high spirits, dressed meticulously, and was talking to Mrs. Yuan, Mrs. Huang and other women.
Everyone here has a smile on their face!
When it was said that my aunt was here, the old lady said, "Oh, she came early!"
Lin Jiangwan came in with a smile, "Mother!" and greeted Yuan again.
Both of them have been doing good things recently, and both of them have smiles on their faces.
Mrs. Lin looked back and said, "Where's Xin'er!"
Lin Jiangwan said, "Yesterday, the empress sent someone to pick her up from the palace. She said that the fifth princess wanted to celebrate her birthday. The empress said to find some female companions to accompany the princess!"
The old lady said, "Okay! Do you know about your brother?"
Lin Jiangwan said, "I see, how could I not know about such a good thing! Mother, there have been a lot of good things going on in our family recently!"
The old lady said, "Yes! Yesterday, your father even shed tears! Our Lin family was founded by your grandfather, and now it is finally in the hands of your eldest brother to carry forward!"
Lin Jiangwan said, "Eldest brother has always been loyal to the emperor! The empress is in the harem, and her work is approved by the emperor! That's why the Yan family and the Lin family have this honor!"
The old lady said, "Yes, yes! The emperor's grace is so great! We are talking about how to celebrate this important event!"
Lin Jiangwan said, "About this matter, when the empress sent someone to pick up Yan Xin, she had some explanations. Mother, daughter, can you tell me?"
It's obvious that he wants to talk to Mrs. Lin in private.
Mrs. Yuan felt awkward: What's the point of pretending! I am now Mrs. Hou! I have a higher status than you!
So she said calmly, "Mom, my wife is going to do some work first!" She saluted, turned around and left.
Everyone present also got up and went out.
Mrs. Lin asked, "What did the empress say?"
Lin Jiangwan said, "It's not so much that the queen came to pick up Yan Xin, it's better to say that she came to bring some advice for my eldest brother."
When Mrs. Lin heard this, she was a little nervous and said, "What?"
Lin Jiangwan said in a low voice, "The Queen said that the Queen's health has been getting worse and worse recently. Late at night, she even invited the imperial doctor to go there. The trouble lasted until noon the next day, which alarmed the Emperor. It is not appropriate for the Lin family to do this at this time.
What a big celebration! It would be bad if... we collide."
The old lady nodded quickly, "This is really... the empress is far-sighted!"
What if my place is bustling and there is news from the palace... Wouldn't that be troublesome?
The old lady said, "Well, let's just have a meal with our own family." She thought that she would invite Mrs. Wang here no matter what. She has been riding on her neck all these years!
Lin Jiangwan said, "That's right! The Lin family has a title. If we don't celebrate, who can look down on it?"
The old lady said, "Thankfully you said it earlier. Just now, we were still... If we couldn't do it half-heartedly..." How ugly it would be!
Lin Jiangwan hummed, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, and suddenly remembered, "I just saw the third girl at the door. Did she go to live at her uncle's house?"
Old Mrs. Lin: "Humph! Isn't her uncle married? There is no old person in the family, so the aunt took her to live with her."
Lin Jiangwan said harshly, "That girl from the Ren family, it's true! Although it didn't sound good to break off the engagement before, it really wasn't her responsibility. But this time, marrying someone surnamed An is really a shame."
!If it were me, even if I became a monk, I wouldn’t be able to take such a step!"
Old Mrs. Lin didn't want to talk about anything related to the An family, so she only replied, "That's right!"
