I'm not worried about traveling through a farmer's house. I made my fortune by farming.
Chapter 369 Winning over
How could Father Lin not understand what they were thinking? He quickly took the village head and the elders by the hand and walked towards his home.
How much can just a few of them eat? The Lin family has enough food, so how can they really ask the village head and the elders to go home and bring meat to their homes?
Moreover, Yanzhou was admitted to high school today, and he was very happy. He just wanted to be happy with everyone.
Seeing the crowd in the yard disperse, Mother Lin whispered a few words to the old lady of the Lu family, and then hurried back to the Lin family.
Lin's mother was also very happy. Today, she was waiting at home for someone to bring her the good news so that she could be the first to know the news that Lu Yanzhou had been admitted to high school.
Lin Changting and his companions did not go to open the shop today. At this moment, Lin Changting was in the main hall entertaining the village head and clan elders with Lin's father.
Because Lu Yanzhou was not at home, County Magistrate Cao and Xue Jingran only sent gifts, waiting to come and congratulate him the next time Lu Yanzhou returned.
The Lin family was very happy to receive the congratulations from County Magistrate Cao. This was a good news, which meant that Lu Yanzhou had passed the imperial examination. He would probably have good luck in the future.
Lin's mother took Pan Xiuxiu and Lin Yunchu to the kitchen, busying themselves with food and wine, just like during the Chinese New Year.
The Lin family was bustling with activity until almost evening. Lin's father and Lin Qingshan accompanied the head of the village and the elders, and were already a little tipsy.
Lin's mother quickly asked Lin Changting and Lin Changshun to help Lin's father into the house and let him have some sleep first.
Lin Changping, who was guarding the Lin family, also hurriedly helped Lin Qingshan back. They were happy today. Yao glared at Lin Qingshan, but finally brought him hot water.
After helping Lin Qingshan wash his face, he was allowed to go to bed. Lin Qingshan turned over in bed, mumbling something, and soon he began to snore.
"Where's Cuizhi? Why can't I see her?"
After leaving the house, Yao looked around the yard and the kitchen, but didn't see Lin Cuizhi. Normally, she wouldn't go out at this time, so she couldn't help but ask Lin Changping.
Lin Changping had also been staying at the Lin family for half a day and was feeling a little tired. He only relaxed after hearing what Yao said.
"Oh, my little sister is still helping to clean up at my uncle's house. I guess she will be back soon."
After hearing what Lin Changping said, Yao nodded, turned around and walked towards the Lin family, intending to go together to see if there was anything the Lin family needed her help with.
It was just right that we came back after finishing our work together. It was already late and we still had to prepare ingredients for tomorrow's shop. I was afraid that these two men would not wake up until tomorrow.
Lin Changting and Lin Changping looked tired, so she went over to take a look and help.
The next day, some wealthy families in the town sent gifts to the Lu family, saying that they were celebrating Lu Yanzhou's success in high school and had specially sent people to deliver the small gifts.
Even County Magistrate Cao and Xue Jingran sent servants from their mansions to deliver gifts to the Lu family. Grandma Lu had no idea about this and quickly asked someone to call Lin's father and mother over to help.
Lin's father and mother were worried. Yan Zhou was not at home. The Lin family had never dealt with these wealthy families in the town. They really didn't know whether they should accept the gift.
Lin Yunchu did not go to town with his elder brother today. Seeing that his father and mother were a little worried, he could not help but say:
"Now that Brother Yanzhou is in high school, it's normal for those people to want to befriend the Lu family. We can't just push them all away."
If this gets out in the future, people might say that the Lu family looks down on people here because they have a tribute scholar.
"As long as it doesn't look like a valuable gift, it's fine for us to accept it. I'll book a few tables of wine and food at Yipin Pavilion in a few days to treat them back."
When Father Lin heard what Lin Yunchu said, his eyes lit up.
This makes sense, and it is not a loss of face to order a few tables of food and wine at Yipin Pavilion.
Yanzhou is not here at the moment. He is just a farmer who only knows how to farm. If he doesn't handle the situation well, he is really afraid of causing unnecessary trouble for Lu Yanzhou.
Lin Yunchu knew what his father was worried about, and couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips.
Father Lin's worries about this matter were really unnecessary. Even if there was no Lu Yanzhou incident, if Father Lin wanted to entertain the wealthy families in the town, many people would rush to go.
You have to know that Lin's father is now a man who has the final say in front of the county magistrate. He is not an ordinary farmer.
Although Lin's father had never announced his assistance to the county government in handling the potato matter, the wealthy families in the town knew best who they were and what was happening.
Normally, I always felt that I had no excuse to talk to Lin's father, so now that Lin's father was helping Lu Yanzhou to entertain those people, it was more than enough and there was no problem.
It was not until Lin Yunchu's repeated persuasion that Lin's father and mother finally nodded and hurried to the Lu family to help the old lady of the Lu family deal with the gifts specially sent to the Lu family.
It happened that Lin Changan also returned today. After receiving Lin Yunchu's instructions, he followed Lin's father and mother to the Lu family and wrote down all the families who came to the Lu family and the gifts they sent.
When he came back, he handed the list to Lin Yunchu. Lin Yunchu sat in front of the window, looking at the name of the people and the gifts on the list, nodding secretly.
There were quite a few gifts, and they looked like they were put a lot of thought into them. They were all things that could be used in daily life and were not expensive.
Lin Yunchu secretly calculated the number of people and thought about going to the town with his elder brother and others tomorrow to order a few tables of wine and food at Yipintang.
Seeing that Lin Yunchu had a plan in mind and had helped to arrange everything, Father Lin finally put his mind at ease.
If his daughter was not around, he really didn't know what to do. Now it seems that Lin Yunchu's arrangement is very appropriate.
It neither offended the wealthy families in the town nor humiliated Yan Zhou's face.
Although Lu Yanzhou in Kyoto tried his best to go out as little as possible, he could not stop people from knocking on his door to invite him in.
This palace examination is the most exciting event in Kyoto right now. Within half a day after the results were announced, everyone on the list has already known everything.
Even the inn they stayed in was clearly visible, and many people came to congratulate them one after another.
Lu Yanzhou had already turned down all the offers he could, and for those he couldn't, he only showed up briefly, then found an excuse to return to the inn to rest.
Lu Yanzhou was born in a poor family. He has ability but no background. He is the target that many people in Kyoto want to win over.
The appointment has not been made yet. Based on Lu Yanzhou's ranking, he might be able to stay in Beijing. Now is the best time to win him over.
Lu Yanzhou was not stupid, so he naturally knew that most of the people who came to congratulate him on his high school graduation were not sincere, and some of them were trying to win him over.
