Chapter 199: Dead Husband, Raising a Child, and Escape from Famine 39

Although Chen Luodan was complaining in his heart, he wore a decent smile on his face. He bowed slightly to Lin Sheng and said, "Nice to meet you. I am Chen Luodan. I have the honor of hearing of Madam Lin's name!"

What? Lin Sheng looked puzzled: "Is it that the news that I was kicked out by my husband's family has been reported to the county government?" She didn't want to say this.

Chen Luodan held back the twitching of her lips. What kind of glorious thing was this? As a woman, how could she say such a thing so easily?

But when I think about other things related to her, it doesn't seem to be much better.

He laughed dryly and quickly changed the subject: "Just now, Chen learned from the conversation with Captain Shen that he is now under the command of Madam Lin..."

Who would believe that General Liang's personal soldiers would listen to a peasant woman's instructions? It was simply ridiculous!

If it was just Shen Liangzhou alone, one could say that he was blinded by lust, but with so many soldiers following him, this doesn't make sense!

Lin Sheng rolled his eyes at him: "You ask even though you already know the answer. I don't believe you don't have the answer in your mind." Isn't it said that this man is the most capable person in the Southern Liang Dynasty!

Chen Luodan was almost choked to death by her words. It would have been fine if this woman had no fear of the officials, but she actually dared to be so rude.

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to himself: Only women and villains are difficult to raise, but he said politely: "Please ask Mrs. Lin to solve Chen's doubts."

Lin Sheng then began to look him up and down. This man was already in his 40s, but with his well-maintained fair and tender skin without pores and fine lines, he looked like he was just in his early 30s.

His appearance, bearing and posture are impeccable. After all, he is the junior brother of the late emperor and the eldest son of an aristocratic family. He has great self-control and endurance.

This was in ancient times. It was rare for a son of a high-ranking aristocratic family to be so polite to a peasant woman who was driven out by her husband's family, and to be able to hold back from getting angry even when being criticized.

"My Lord, would you like to see where we are now? Is this place in the wilderness a good place to reminisce about the past? Otherwise, you can take us into the city and settle us down first, and then we can talk slowly. By the way, my Lord, the County Magistrate must have a house in the city, right? Is it big? Can it accommodate more than 160 people?"

Lin Sheng also started to make some calculations in his mind. It would be too conspicuous for them to stay in an inn, and there were no short-term rental houses available.

Originally, they planned to stay in several inns after entering the city, but now it was like a sleepyhead finding a pillow, it would be a waste not to use it.

Chen Luodan couldn't help but twitch his lips this time: "Chen has a temporary place to stay in the city, but it only has three entrances, and there are dozens of people left behind. This time Chen brought hundreds of people with him, I'm afraid..."

Lin Sheng counted on his fingers and found that a house with three courtyards had 40 rooms. If there were 4,5 or of them in one room, wouldn't that be just right?

When Chen Luodan saw the woman's excited eyes, he had a premonition that something bad was going to happen, and it turned out to be true.

"??? From what Madam Lin said, she wants all my people to stay in an inn?" What is this woman talking about? She obviously has a house to live in, so what would it mean to stay in an inn?

Lin Sheng said as a matter of course: "Don't worry, County Magistrate. I will pay for their stay at the inn, and also provide two meals a day. We can take care of ourselves, so there is no need to keep anyone to serve us."

Chen Luodan looked at her expression that said: I think so much about you, you don’t have to thank me, and his head was buzzing. Is he going to be taken over by someone else?

Seeing his uneasy expression, Lin Sheng knew that he might be unwilling, so he quickly explained: "Well, County Magistrate, you may have misunderstood. You can stay and live with us. After all, it is your house. As long as the others go out and stay at the inn, it will be fine."

She thought for a moment and added, "You can also leave a few servants with you, but it's best not to have more than five. I'm afraid we'll be too crowded."

Chen Luodan stumbled. If Shen Liangzhou, who had been standing not far away, had not discovered him in time and ran over to help him, the county magistrate would have been in great disgrace.

Shen Liangzhou suppressed his laughter, patted Chen Luodan's back twice and said, "Our wife is kind-hearted and doesn't know how to beat around the bush. She is a little straightforward in her words and deeds. Please forgive me, Master Chen."

Chen Luodan stood up straight and waved his hands: "How can I argue with a woman like her? Let's go into the city first and discuss it later."

At this point, his expression paused, as if he had just remembered: "The inspection here in the city is strict. Even if I am leading someone, they still need a pass to be allowed in. Why don't you camp outside for a night and wait until tomorrow morning when I have someone send a pass out before entering."

Shen Liangzhou cleared his throat, and solemnly took out the pass that he was assigned from his pocket and placed it in front of him: "Don't worry about this, Mr. Chen, we all have passes."

Chen Luodan didn't care, thinking they got it by relying on the old relationship of Liang Wangfu. But when he took a closer look, he saw the official seal of Dingchuan County on it, and he felt uneasy again: "Who made this for you?"

I can’t talk about other places, but all the road permits for Dingchuan County have to go through his hands. I’m not confused, so how can I not know whether I have signed this one or not?

Shen Liangzhou quickly put the paper back into his arms and said, "Mr. Chen, why bother with all those trivial details? Let's get into the city quickly. If we're late, we won't be able to have lunch."

Chen Luodan was still a little confused until he was half-dragged into the carriage. He remembered that he had met Shen Liangzhou twice before, and he didn't seem to have this kind of rogue personality, right? Could it be that he learned bad things from someone?

No matter what he thought, Lin Sheng and the others were very happy.

As soon as everyone thought about the fact that they would be able to live in a large house with three courtyards once they entered the city, they walked with more energy than before.

As expected, it is good to follow an official. When the officers and soldiers guarding the city heard that the visitor was the magistrate of Dingchuan County, they carefully checked his identity and just glanced at the passes of others and let them all pass.

After entering the city gate, they went straight to Chen Luodan's house.

Several children sitting in the carriage couldn't help but lift the curtains and look out of the windows.

Lin Sheng leaned back in his chair with his eyes closed, listening to 803 telling the gossip it had just heard: "According to the soldiers guarding the city, County Magistrate Chen is indeed very powerful. The third wave of barbarians came with people, and they were all defeated. Host, do you know how he did it?"

Lin Sheng really couldn't figure it out. Even if he had some weapons of mass destruction, he wouldn't be stupid enough to use them. Isn't this obviously giving the person above an excuse to deal with him?

[Hehe, he found more than 200 prostitutes, sneaked out of the city in the name of surrender, and found an opportunity to poison the food of those barbarians. In just one night, all people died.]
