Chapter 204 Anxious Lin Su Niang

In late spring, the spring breeze is graceful, the willows are green, and the river water is like smoke. It is the best time of the year. In Tokyo, Bianliang, all men, women, young and old all go out to the city to enjoy the flowers and go out for a walk, which is very lively.

There was a different scene in Xu's house west of the city.

Since I bought this house, the Xu family's business started to get angry. Although there has been no sugar business in recent years and only relied on a few wineries, the pastoral business in Zhongmu has been operating for several years and has reached the point of harvest. The annual income is only a lot higher than when I was running a sugar shop, and it is not even as good as it is.

This small house is cleaned up every year, now carved beams, painted buildings, and lush flowers and trees, making it look a bit rich and noble. Xu Ping's official rank has entered the sequence of intermediate officials, and the pattern is not the time for ordinary people before.

In the living room, Su'er was chatting with Lin Suniang. In the yard outside, Xu Zheng and Zhang Sanniang teased Pan Panpan and Li Zhang's eldest son Heihu.

When Su'er gave birth to a black tiger, a big black cat was lying outside the house. He couldn't even drive it away, so he named it. The black cat. Hei Tiger was a few years younger than Panpan and didn't understand anything. He always grabbed the corner of her clothes.

Looking outside the door, Suer asked Lin Suniang in a low voice: "You have been collecting precious medicinal materials these two days. I wonder if there are any suitable ones? I have some at home, but I am not in my room and I will bring them to you tomorrow."

Lin Suniang shook her head: "No need, what you want now is treasures. I know the situation at home, where are these things? In the past two days, I told Xu Chang to go out and search all over Tokyo City. No matter how much money it costs, as long as it is useful, I will buy them home. I don't know if he has found anything."

Su Er said: "I'm afraid it's not easy. Since the emperor's edict came out, who wouldn't have such an idea as long as it is a rich family? Although the Xu family has no family property now, it may not be as good as those wealthy families."

Lin Suniang sighed: "I had to take my luck. I really didn't have to offer some of the Lingnan medicinal materials sent by Dalian to my home in the past two years. However, most of these are tributes, so there are naturally more in the palace than mine and better than mine, so the amount is not enough."

Now the Xu family is headed by Lin Su Niang, and Xu Zheng and Zhang Sanniang only take care of some miscellaneous things occasionally. When they are free, they all focus on their granddaughter Panpan.

After these years, Lin Suniang has long since lost the childishness that Xu Ping still had when she left. She has been in charge of such a huge family business for many years. She has become mature and steady, and her temperament has become more solemn.

After saying a few gossips, Su Er said, "Actually, my family said that they do not agree with you for presenting medicinal materials to the court. The husband in the court only cut off the imperial edict, and there is no sin. Perhaps the imperial edict is to be promoted. You are now offering medicinal materials to find connections, which makes people look at each other differently."

Lin Su Niang smiled bitterly: "I hope to clear his guilt before, and this general amnesty will be resolved. Now, such a decree is not up or down, and it makes people have no clues."

Su'er then sighed.

Lin Suniang said again: "I am also in a hurry to seek medical treatment, and there is no way. Now the person who is going to Dalang to pass the imperial edict is to go to Jinghu area. If the court changes its mind, the fast horse can catch up. Naturally, it will do its best."

Su'er looked at Xu Zheng and his wife outside the house. Seeing that they were having fun of their two children, she leaned close to Lin Su Niang and whispered: "Actually, although my father-in-law at home didn't say it clearly, I see what he meant is that he really disagrees with you for finding medicinal herbs. Today we sisters talk. You must not tell anyone about it."

Lin Suniang said: "If you have something to say, just say it. I watched you grow up and get married, but you don't know my temperament yet!"

Su Er whispered: "I heard what my father-in-law said. The empress dowager was too ill this time, and I was afraid she couldn't get through it. The Langjun suffered this time. I heard that it was all the Empress Dowager Liu's intentions. He thought that he did not listen to the orders of the Privy Council in Lingnan and acted without authorization, causing a lot of trouble for the court. However, the emperor and several prime ministers in the court still returned to protect the king, so he was just waiting for the order."

Lin Su Niang looked at Su'er and said with a serious face: "Didn't you coax me?"

"How dare I? It's true. My father-in-law meant that you do nothing at home and wait quietly. As long as the Queen Mother goes, all the dark clouds will naturally disappear."

Speaking of this, Su'er looked around carefully and said timidly: "Although our sisters talk in private, I'm still scared when talking about these."

Lin Suniang said: "There are no outsiders at home, so what are you afraid of?"

While talking, he thought about whether to listen to Su'er's words.

In mid-March, the court issued a court order to remove Xu Ping's various officials. Lin Suniang received the news within a few days and was very anxious. Now Xu Ping is a young man with a promising future, and his family is rich and rich. Lin Suniang understands human relationships and accidents, and has more or less connections in Beijing.

But after all, she is a woman, and her eyelids are still shallow, which is related to her husband's future. When Lin Su Niang heard that she removed Xu Ping's various duties, she became confused and had no idea of ​​the secret of waiting for the word "destiny".

Yesterday, on March 25, Empress Dowager Liu's condition suddenly worsened. The anxious young emperor announced a general amnesty for the world. At the same time, he ordered famous doctors from all over the country to recruit people from all over the country to come to Beijing. Those who can cure the Queen Mother's illness will be rewarded. In addition to personnel, he also seeks help from ghosts and gods. With the doctors and famous Taoist monks, they also spread the word to Beijing.

Lin Suniang got the news and grabbed the life-saving straw and sent out all the servants at home. She bought precious medicinal materials all over the city and wanted to offer them to the palace to find a future for Xu Ping. She was lucky that Xu Ping was just waiting for the order but did not clarify the charge. At this time, she was eager to convict Xu Ping before. When encountering such an unprecedented general amnesty, she would be forgiven for any crime and could do it again.

Li Yonghe, who knew Lin Su Niang's actions, was very dissatisfied with him and could not explain it clearly, so he spoke to Su Er. What is the relationship between Su Er and Lin Su Niang? As soon as he got the news, he rushed to the Xu family.

At this time, Li Yong and the young military officer were no longer the young military officers of the past. In addition to the fact that the military minister was slightly lower, they were actually similar to Xu Ping's official rank. They had a status. Although they were just doing idle positions, they were relatives of the foreign status, so they naturally had a group of people with similar ranks to mingle with him. Even Li Zhang now has a favor with the official ranks of the third ranks and officially became an official.

Knowing that Li Yong and the source of information are widely available, Lin Suniang must consider his meaning carefully. Especially the sentence, the Empress Dowager is afraid that she can't hold on, which makes Lin Suniang think a lot.

Xu Ping was still white and when he was farming in Zhongmu, he was incompatible with the queen mother's relatives. Later, the first-class Jinshi in high school, the queen mother interfered and sent her to Lingnan with one sentence. The poor two of them were newly married, and they stayed together for a few months, and they were separated for six years in a blink of an eye.

If the empress dowager really can't stand it, will Xu Ping be so happy? Will he just wait with peace of mind?
