Chapter 460
A poor son 14
Lin Yutong returned to the house and changed into wet clothes. She added firewood to the stove inside the house and boiled ginger soup in the clay pot. She sat in front of the stove, trying to connect the strings of things.
Fan said that this is a fight between gods and immortals.
The only whine that Xiao He's mouth was afraid that the Qingyang River would flood and it would flood.
Could it be that what Fan refers to is the rising water of Qingyang River?
Lin Yutong looked at the rain outside. Whether the water rises or not is the meaning of God. Why can Fan know in advance?
Unless, what you are facing is not a natural disaster, but *.
On both sides of the river, there are villages next to villages, and the Yin family and Lin family are both near the river bank. If the water rises, no one can escape it if a wave comes.
If this is true, Fan still has the face to say that she is meddling in other people's business. It is all about the lives of the whole family. For her, it is just a matter of nostalgia?
It's really outrageous.
It’s a pity that I know too little.
Lin Yutong looked into the wing room where the three bedrooms lived through the window.
I deliberately lost the money, and I think the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law should be moved. The wealth is touching. I believe they are willing to ask Fan for a silenced silver.
I just don’t know how long can this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law bear it?
The ginger soup on the stove made a gurgling sound, and the room was filled with the smell of ginger soup.
"What are you thinking?" The Fourth Master's voice sounded from behind.
Lin Yutong then stood up suddenly and quickly peeled down his wet clothes.
The Fourth Master sat on the edge of the kang, and Lin Yutong wrapped the warm quilt around him. "It's okay, it's not that cold."
Seeing that his feet were wrinkled and his mouth was still hard, Lin Yutong poured ginger soup into the basin first. Using this to wash his feet can also drive away the cold.
As soon as his feet were in hot water, the Fourth Master shuddered.
"Look, there was still a cold air in my body." Lin Yutong complained, and quickly poured a bowl and handed it over, "Drink it while it's hot."
The Fourth Master replied with a smile, "You go outside and have a look. You have really gotten something good today."
Lin Yutong was not happy, so she stood inside the door and looked at the basket that was still in the rain by the Fourth Master. She looked at her head and found that it was really a good thing, four two-foot-long grass carp, two one-foot-long carp, half a basket of crucian carp fillets and an old turtle as big as a small millstone.
"I stew the old turtle tonight." The Fourth Master looked at the thing, "Is it a big tonic product worth it."
Lin Yutong responded, turned around and squatted down, wiped the fourth master's feet, and pulled a quilt to cover him.
Then he looked outside and whispered to the Fourth Master about what happened today.
The Fourth Master's expression became more and more serious. After a long time, he said, "This is not something that County Magistrate Fan dares to do alone. Qingyang River is just a tributary, and the main stream is west, but Xihe River does not pass through Shunping County."
Therefore, if someone really wants to use Qingyang River to discharge floods to the mainstream, it is not something that a small county magistrate can make the decision.
But this should be targeted by the magistrate Zhao.
"The matter here is probably a bit complicated." The Fourth Master hugged the quilt and looked out the window, "If the upstream must release the flood, then is it really necessary to choose Qingyang River? But is it necessary to release the flood? Should you choose Qingyang River, which involves officials in all aspects?"
"I can't control it?" Lin Yutong asked.
The Fourth Master looked out the window and said, "If it is really a flood discharge out of public interest, why bother secretly? We don't know the rainfall in other places and have no way to judge. But I heard that the dam of the Xihe River was built by the prefect who served as the prefect."
Lin Yutong was shocked. She suddenly knew what the crux of the problem was?
It's the problem with this river dam.
Is there any cuts in the corners in Heba? Is there any private pockets here? This is not a matter of Shunping County, but a matter of the entire Tai'an Prefecture.
This person who has worked on building the river dam is probably hard to clean up. From the capital to the local area, he exploited it layer by layer...
Once the river collapses, so many officials of all sizes will have to lose their heads. Those who are officials naturally cannot lose their heads, so they can only see the people along the river in Shunping County.
Lin Yutong held her hands tightly. This is the sorrow of Shengdou Xiaomin.
Except for them, most of them are still kept in the dark at this moment. I don’t know which night they will be swallowed by the flood.
The Fourth Master patted Lin Yutong on the back, "It's okay! It's okay! Where is the Master?"
"We have to do something?" Lin Yutong grabbed the Fourth Master's finger and said.
The Fourth Master looked at the door and saw fish pouring in the rain at this location.
"Isn't it just to ask everyone to evacuate? This is simple." The Fourth Master looked at the fish outside, pointed at it and asked Lin Yutong, "What allusion did you think of?"
Lin Yutong's eyes suddenly lit up: "I wrote a elixir and said 'King Chen Sheng', and put it in the belly of a fish that was burned by someone." She lowered her voice, "I want to... pretend to be a ghost."
The Fourth Master pointed out, a little helpless, "Saying such things from people's mouths is called spreading rumors and causing trouble, disturbing the hearts of the people. Speaking from gods and Buddhas is to guide the people, and it is to compassion for the heavens and compassion for the people. No one really believes what people say. After all, this is to abandon their family and keep their businesses. But most people will be afraid of what ghosts and gods say."
Lin Yutong looked at the fish outside, "Are these... still there?"
"! Only by raising the price can more people go down the river to catch fish and have the chance to do anything." The Fourth Master said, and then stood up, "I'll go now! The flood discharge is to take advantage of the momentum of the rain." Therefore, if there is any change, I'm afraid it will be only in these few days.
Lin Yutong went to get him clogs, "It's not okay to wear this, straw sandals."
The Fourth Master went out and carried a basket, and then hesitated to look at Lin Yutong, "This old turtle..."
"Together." Lin Yutong smiled, "I'll get me a bigger one in the future." To create momentum, the more money you have, the more envious it is.
The Fourth Master looked at Lin Yutong and smiled: "Okay! I'll catch you a bigger one in the future."
The Fourth Master left the house, and Lin Yutong was ready to cook lunch. After baking scallion pancakes, he brought seven or eight to Yin Laoer and Qian. He then brought a can of stewed radish with big bones.
"Mom, don't need to fire." Lin Yutong said when she saw Qian's fire in the pot.
Qian glanced at Yin Lao Er and had to accept it. He gestured to another "four" and pointed outside the door. He meant to ask where the Fourth Master was going?
Lin Yutong smiled and gestured, "Such a big grass carp, such a big carp, and several pounds of old turtles. He rushed there."
Yin Laoer quickly said, "Then let's have a meal, and I'll go and have a look after it."
Lin Yutong smiled and was about to withdraw. I guess there were many people who were moved.
Qian grabbed Lin Yutong, pointed to the three bedrooms opposite her, gestured another two, and then pointed to the room where Fan lived.
It means that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law from the third house went to Fan's house.
Lin Yutong thought to herself, this mother-in-law is really a person with bright eyes. She nodded and smiled, "Don't worry, mom, I can't suffer any loss."
Qian pointed at herself, meaning she would call her if she had trouble.
Lin Yutong responded and turned back to her room.
As for what Fan and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law said, she was no longer interested in knowing.
The rice was hot in the pot, waiting for the Fourth Master to come back. Unexpectedly, before the Fourth Master could wait for the angry Fan family.
"Have you eaten by the third sister-in-law?" Lin Yutong asked. She had long guessed that when Xiao He and Fan met, they would reveal their feelings.
"Are you cheating me?" Fan lowered his voice and stared at Lin Yutong, "Isn't my advantage so easy to take advantage?" She almost got angry. Xiao He really heard something, but according to her, she had never told Lin. Then it was only Lin who saw that Xiao He was wrong and came to blackmail her. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were also greedy and asked for one hundred taels. In the end, fifty taels beat the person. But most of her dowry was posted in, asking her to be willing to let it go. I really don't know how to write the word "death".
Lin Yutong looked at Fan in surprise, "Where did the third sister-in-law start? Why did I cheat you? You were praising the second son of the Jiang Zhizhou family in a deliberate way. You didn't want to slander the younger sister to others for joy? Who doesn't know that the younger sister is the flesh of the old man and the old lady, but you dare to plot. First, he picked the old lady and then reluctantly made a match for it. The benefits were made for your parents' family. The one who compensated was the girl of the Yin family. You also said that your father had to force you to rely on Jiang Zhizhou. Then I don't ruin your business, isn't it worth so much money? If you feel unwilling to accept it, you can take it away." As he said that, he got up, took out the silver from under the quilt, and placed it on the kang table, "Please!"
"What are you talking about?" Fan looked at Lin Yutong in shock.
"Who else is there besides this?" Lin Yutong looked up and down at Fan with malicious intentions. "It seems that there are many things that the third sister-in-law cannot let anyone know?"
Fan felt relieved, and it turned out that he had gone to two places.
It's because I'm too nervous.
Thinking of the fact that there was no trouble at this time, she smiled and said, "Actually, this is not something that cannot be known to others. If my sister-in-law can marry, it is just wearing gold and silver, right? Okay! Keep the silver and sister-in-law..." Buy medicine and take it.
She cursed silently in her heart and then turned around and went out, "Your brother and sister are careful, if you walk too much at night, you will always encounter ghosts."
Lin Yutong smiled distractedly, "Humans are more terrible than ghosts. I am not afraid of people, I can still be afraid of ghosts."
It's really eloquent.
Fan went out, held up an oil-paper umbrella and walked into the rain curtain.
Lin Yutong remembered the fact that the Fourth Master was going to pretend to be a ghost next, so naturally she would not have any open connection with her family. Even if Fan suspects in the future, Lin Yutong would dare to guarantee that she would not dare to ask her father to know that the news was leaked from her. Otherwise, her father would be afraid that the first person she would not let go.
Looking at the rain outside, Lin Yutong felt uneasy at all. She thought she was a stable farmhouse, but who knew she was full of dangers. Like the Fourth Master, who was a low-ranking person and did not forget to worry about the people, she should be in pain.
The weight is too light, but the things to be done are too big.
One word - difficult!
