However, Lin Zixi's face turned cold. "What family property left by my uncle? Wasn't that something my uncle voluntarily donated to the clan?"
Lin Dashan was taken aback, then realized, "Yes, yes, it was my uncle who voluntarily donated it to the clan."
My younger sister is so clever; she got to the point in just one sentence.
However, he added worriedly, "Sister, Lin Chang'er's new lover seems to have some connection with the county government. Father has already been tied up and sent to the county government by their men."
That's why my father sent me to tell you, so you can think of a way to bribe the county government.
Especially with Clerk Liu, as long as he puts a good word for us with the county magistrate, this matter won't escalate beyond Ninghai County.
Lin Zixi's eyes narrowed. "Outrageous! Who is that man? How dare he beat someone in broad daylight and tie up our father? Isn't this contempt for the county government? Are the county officials all dead?"
Lin Zixi was furious, but then she thought, "Isn't Lin Chang'er just asking for death?"
If they dare to tie up her father and send him to the county government, she will definitely make Lin Chang'er taste prison food too.
She forcibly suppressed her anger and said to Lin Dashan, "You wait here, I will tell Yue Ge about this and ask him to come with me to bring Father back."
Lin Dashan nodded, "Good, it would be best to arrest Lin Chang'er and her lover. Otherwise, who knows what kind of trouble such troublemakers will cause, and it might even affect the county magistrate's promotion."
Lin Zixi curled her lips slightly. That was a must.
They should have strangled that bitch Lin Chang'er with a rope back then, and all this trouble wouldn't exist now.
I originally wanted her to live a little longer, but since she doesn't want to, I can't blame her.
Once she's locked up and we've taken good care of her, the idea that she'll come out alive is simply wishful thinking.
After Lin Zixi finished speaking, she turned around, but Lin Dashan called out to her, "Sister..."
Lin Zixi turned around. "Is there anything else?"
Lin Dashan chuckled, "My family hasn't been providing lunch lately, so I ran all the way here, hehe..."
I'm starving, can you give me something to eat?
Lin Zixi covered her nose. Normally it would be fine, but today, with him in such a state, if she led him into the house, Yue-ge would definitely scold her.
She fanned herself with a handkerchief, then disgustedly counted out four coins from her purse and handed them to him. “Yue and I only cook a fixed amount of food each meal, there’s no extra. Go outside and buy a bowl of noodles.”
Lin Dashan looked at the four coins in his sister's hand with some disbelief.
Who is responsible for the lack of lunch at home?
It's all because of Lin Zixi; she asks her family for money every ten days or half a month.
He ran all the way here, and they didn't even give him a bowl of water or a bite to eat, just four coins to get rid of him.
Lin Dashan was unhappy.
Seeing that he wouldn't take it, Lin Zixi said coldly, "What? You think it's too little? Then figure out a way yourself..."
As he was saying this, he tried to take back the four coins, but Lin Dashan grabbed them.
Four coins are still money; at least it can buy him a bowl of vegetarian noodles. Why not take it? But this younger sister treats him so harshly.
He won't just let it go like that.
Lin Dashan left with the copper coins, and Lin Zixi twitched her lips at his retreating figure. In the future, when Yue Ge passed the imperial examination, this poor relative would be too low-class to be respected, and they would have to cut ties with him.
With that thought in mind, she swayed her hips and went back to her room to find Han Yue.
There were many things to do today, which took up a lot of time, so Lin Chang'er's lunch break was cut short by more than half.
She had only been asleep for a short while when Little Goldfish came in and quietly woke her up, "Mom, are you asleep? Everyone is sitting by the sandy field."
Lin Chang'er rubbed her eyes and got up, trying to stay awake.
When she arrived in the courtyard, she saw that there were several more people there today.
Little Cow, Little Mountain, Little Tree, Big Head, Little Flower Sister-in-law.
Xiaoshan, Xiaoshu, and Datou each had a basket beside them. Xiaoshan's basket contained sweet potatoes, Xiaoshu's contained pumpkins, and Datou's contained potatoes.
Seeing Lin Chang'er looking over, the little goldfish helped explain, "Mother, they also want to learn to read, and their family asked them to bring these things over."
Lin Chang'er understood; this meant using something as collateral for tuition fees.
When Xiaoshan, Xiaoshu, and Datou met her gaze, they immediately put on ingratiating smiles, as if they were afraid she wouldn't agree.
Lin Chang'er waved her hand, "It's on the way anyway, take the things back and study hard."
After saying that, he started the class immediately.
Wu Qingfeng was awakened by the sound of students reading aloud. When he woke up, his mind was not very clear, and for a moment he thought he was still in the Imperial Academy.
Looking up at the light shining through the roof, he realized that he was still at Miss Lin's house.
He quietly sat up, and seeing that Bai Shaoan was still asleep, he stepped over him and got out of bed.
When I got to the door, I saw people of all ages sitting in a circle in the courtyard, reciting the Three Character Classic.
Miss Lin sat to the side drinking water, while her stepson, Gu Jingzhe, led the reading.
The little guy was quite serious, holding a bamboo stick very carefully.
"Brother Xiaoshan, this isn't how you pronounce it. Read it after me..."
"Xiaoman, don't look at the little ducklings, look at your brother here..."
“Auntie Xiaohua, read it louder, louder! No one here will laugh at you.”
Seeing this, Wu Qingfeng couldn't help but laugh.
His smile faded when he realized they were writing on a sandy field.
Miss Lin is indeed a woman of great vision. It's a pity that if she had been born a man, she would surely have a place in the imperial court.
However, among these children...
His eyes darted around, and he was looking for an excuse to talk to Lin Chang'er.
The little goldfish had already seen him.
The little goldfish then reminded Lin Chang'er, "Mother, Young Master Wu has woken up."
Upon hearing this, Lin Chang'er got up, poured a bowl of water, and brought it to him. "Is it because you can't get used to sleeping here? If you really can't, after dinner, you should go back to town!"
Although there are mostly children here, it doesn't stop me from collecting seafood. If all else fails, I can hire someone and pay them a small fee.
Wu Qingfeng took a sip of water. "I don't have any trouble sleeping in different beds. I just came out out of curiosity when I heard the sound of reading."
Lin Chang'er nodded, "You flatter me, young master. We are from a rural family, and few of us can afford to go to school. So we teach ourselves to read and write, and do math, so we won't be completely illiterate."
After pausing for a moment, he added, "Of course, once I've saved up some more money, I'll still send the younger ones to school. As for my aunts and sisters-in-law, I'll still take care of them myself so they can learn to read and write, and not get cheated out of their money."
Wu Qingfeng nodded, wanting to say that his idea was very good.
Then, feeling that this was too vague, he changed his question to, "Would you like some paper, ink, brushes, an inkstone, a desk, and a chair?"
Lin Chang'er smiled and said, "I don't have much money on hand right now, so I'll make do for now. I'll buy it when I have more spare money."
Wu Qingfeng's mind raced. "When I first arrived in Ninghai County, I bought a batch of paper. The quality was slightly inferior to what I usually use, and I didn't like using it, so it's been sitting unused. If Miss Lin doesn't mind, I can give it to you..."
