He heaved a sigh of relief and collapsed in his chair, feeling relieved.
But after hearing that the last carriage carrying the salt tax left the city,
The people of Qingfeng Village immediately removed the seal on the city gate and left.
Lin Ruhai's face instantly turned as pale as pig liver.
The servant who reported the situation saw this and asked with concern,
"Master, are you okay? Do you need me to call a doctor for you?"
Lin Ruhai closed his eyes slightly and waved his hand.
"You go out!"
"Yes, sir!"
The servant didn't dare to ask more questions, and quickly bowed and turned away.
After the servants left,
Lin Ruhai, whose face was as pale as liver, first held his head with both hands and lowered his head at the desk.
Suddenly, he raised his head, looked at the sky outside the door and said with a sad smile,
"Hahaha! Good!"
"What a great Qingfeng Village! What a great Qingfeng Li!"
As an official who had been an unshakable figure in the Daqian Dynasty, how could he not understand the meaning of Li Qingfeng's arrangement?
Perhaps, just as Rong Mama from Qingfeng Village said before leaving,
Maybe he is really too tired!
After a long time, Lin Ruhai rubbed his face.
He stood up somewhat dejectedly, took a blank memorial from the table, picked up the pen and dipped it in ink.
After thinking for a moment, he began to write on the memorial...
……
Yangzhou Wharf.
At this moment, at the dock, looking around, you can see huge ships blocking out the sky and the sun.
Except for the building ship in the lead that flew the Jia family's flag, the others were all official ships with extremely deep waterlines.
Yes, these were the salt taxes from the Huai River and Huai River regions that had already been loaded onto the ships, as well as the Jia Mansion’s ships that had received people and were preparing to sail north to the capital.
At this moment, in an elegant room on the top floor of a luxurious ship with a big banner bearing the word "Jia".
Lin Daiyu sat by the railing, her cheek supported by one hand, her watery eyes fixed on the water on the river.
Unconsciously, two lines of tears flowed down, and each drop fell along her fair face.
Xueyan, who was standing next to Lin Daiyu, was also very sad to see her young lady so sad.
"Miss, please don't cry. The master said that we are only going to the capital for a short stay and we will be back!"
Lin Daiyu came back to her senses and raised her hand to touch the tear marks on her face.
"Xueyan, you don't have to worry about me. I'll be fine after crying for a while!"
Xueyan was anxious and worried when she heard this, but she didn't know how to dissuade him for a moment.
He could only helplessly watch his young lady's sad face and shed tears.
Just then, footsteps suddenly sounded.
Xueyan hurriedly looked up and saw Aunt Rong walking into the room.
He leaned over and said to Lin Daiyu,
"Miss, Aunt Rong is here!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Daiyu turned around, picked up her handkerchief and wiped the tears from her face.
Then he turned around with a forced smile on his face.
"Mammy, what's the matter?"
Aunt Rong came to Lin Daiyu and bowed slightly.
"Miss, everything is ready. Master Jia, please allow me to set off now."
In fact, given Jia Lian's original personality, he would not care about the thoughts of a little girl like Lin Daiyu.
But unfortunately, they are still in Yangzhou and have not left the waters of Yangzhou yet.
What if he was robbed by the pirates from Qingfeng Village again? He might have to rely on Lin Ruhai's connections to escape.
Moreover, after leaving the city, Jia Lian also figured it out.
Lin Ruhai took the opportunity of sending Lin Daiyu to Beijing to transport this year's salt tax to the capital!
In addition, Lin Daiyu brought Rong Mama and several maids with her, which was very impressive.
It is not as shabby as in the original novel, where she went north alone with a maid and a nanny.
Under such circumstances, Jia Lian naturally dared not act on his own.
Asking someone to ask Lin Daiyu for instructions not only shows respect for her cousin, but also secretly indicates that Lin Daiyu is the leader of this trip to the capital.
If anything happens, no matter who is responsible, it has nothing to do with him.
Of course, Rong Mama knew very well how shrewd she was.
