The eldest brother of the Lin family in the Red Chamber

The deep enmity between the Fang family and Lin Mo was mostly unilateral by their family.However, Lin Mo was not so naive as to think that he and the Fang family members could continue to be colleagues in harmony.This trip, in the final analysis, is still a message for others.

Fang Jian changed into new clothes.He hadn't gotten out of bed for a long time, and he was served by servants every day when he wiped his body, and he was so proud of his illness that there were only two lines of muddy tears in the corners of his eyes.However, when he heard that Lin Mo was coming, he still struggled to get someone to change his clothes, and then put a few pillows on his back, and asked someone to help him sit up—now, the action of "sit" is very important to him. It's quite a burden to say the least.

It took a long time, but fortunately Lin Mo was patient enough to wait for him.

"Old Fang." He respectfully waited for Shui Rong to salute first, and then followed him with a big salute, which surprised Shui Rong.Fang Jian was not polite either, he accepted such a prostration abruptly, before panting, "You are here, I have everything ready. Xiaoqin—"

Fang Enqin responded with a straight face, turned her head and carried a big wooden box out.

"Most of these materials were given to me by Master Lin." Fang Jian said, "Maybe you young people are capable, and we look like we are old, but I just want to talk more. This reform is due to Sheji. The old man is getting older, so he is a bit impatient, and he is afraid that he will not be as calm as you young people when this is done. You are very good. You should persevere." He no longer had the energy to say extra words, but some No need for him to say, Lin Mo also understands.

He is still young, and the road ahead is so long. He can take one step at a time and steadily refine and perfect this reform from zero to whole, so that it will truly benefit the country and the people.As Fang Jian said, no matter how aggressive these old people are, they are still thinking about the common people.It's just that they don't have much time, so they think about running faster, faster, and racing against Lord Yan, who can outrun it?

Lin Mo was also very surprised.He came here this time and was fully prepared. In any case, the Fang family is a big family.Even if Fang Pingyun had such a big problem and the whole family fell silent, it should not be underestimated.Wu Lianshui is coming here, the situation is unknown.The Fang family will win over if they can, and if they are unwilling to forgive him, they can't go to the opposite side of the dynasty - he is ready to be scolded, but who knows, Fang Jian is here to entrust his final career.

"I originally wanted to entrust Xiaoqin to you." Fang Jian looked at his beloved grandson, "However, you have more important things than teaching and educating people." His voice trembled, "This old man is useless. But Master Lin, you must be a good official."

The old man who had always been serious and rigid finally softened up.

Lin Mo replied "Yes" in a low voice, and couldn't say anything else.

It was still Fang Enqin who sent them off.The little boy is not even up to his chest height, with a serious face, very mature.A skinny camel is bigger than a horse, no matter how bad the Fang family is, it won't short young master Fang, even if it is the future, it will be a thousand times easier than the poor family.But the gap between before and after is enough to make the young man depressed.But he looks all right.

Lin Mo had heard of Fang Enqin, who had mediocre studies and mediocre relationships. She was completely different from his provocative and eye-catching parents, but because his mother was Princess Mingli, she was at the head of the Fang family's cousins.Now that the princess has been demoted to the county lord, she has also taken over the land and farm, and is confined to her husband's house. Her father has also been sentenced to exile. The whole family's uncles and uncles are afraid to talk about him, saying that he has been implicated.Now Fang Jian is still holding his breath. When the old man is gone, the child's life at home will not be easy.

However, he sent the two honored guests out in such a nonchalant and courteous manner.It seemed that the two of them were really just little friends invited by the grandfather to have a chat, and there was no gap with him.

"I'll treat you to fish some other day." After getting into the carriage, Lin Mo poked his head out and said in a warm voice.The cooks in his house are well-known for being able to cook fish. Although they are all used to eating delicacies from mountains and seas, it is rare for anyone to have an appointed cook, which is also a matter of face.

Fang Enqin couldn't tell if he was angry or flattered. He cast his eyes on the big wooden box held by the servant behind Lin Mo, and after a long time, he bowed to Lin Mo and went back to serve his grandfather.

"The old man said that he won't entrust this child to you. When I really run out of fuel, I will definitely find a future for my grandson." Shui Rong also heard the rumor that this child can't study, "Look at his temper Like this, I don’t know if it’s a blessing or a curse.” He also glanced at the wooden box, “After all, this reform——”

Lin Mo interrupted him: "Isn't reform just that, whoever has an idea, writes a booklet, and the emperor thinks it's feasible, so he can operate it." He shook his hand, "Only you people who think about things, always think about status, The future is connected with the reform. Or, since this matter was named 'reform', it has become so complicated that it has lost its essence." He can see it clearly, "Now that your Majesty governs the country, he pays great attention to the people. It’s just further improvement, and the word reform is too deep.”

They are just doing improvement work—even sometimes adding to the chaos completely, but they must be crowned with the name of "reform" to show their hard work.It's no wonder that Fang Jian and the others have been busy for a long time without making any progress.

Shui Rong looked at him unexpectedly: "I thought you were going to cry."

Lin Mo snorted, "When have you ever seen me cry?" He asked again, "I seem to be free today? Go to my place." He always spoke in such a positive tone, but if Shui Rong said he was not free, he would Never seen him stop.But in the final analysis, there are very few people who can refuse him just because of the extremely bright arc of eyebrows raised when talking to him.At least Water Soluble is definitely not among those who don't understand style.

"Let's present these things up first. Thankfully, it's Fang Xiang's hard work." Lin Mo said.

This is quite different from what Fang Jian said.But as they all know, most of the information here is through the hands of the household department.But in the end, it was Fang Jian who exhausted his efforts to sort out the reconciliation. He was obliged to let the emperor know that his Taifu did not hold any grudges, nor was he old-fashioned, but was honest and loyal to the country as always.

The so-called veterans don't die.

By the time they arrived at Jingyuan Hou's Mansion, it was already dark.The servants got the news early, and prepared a table of food and wine. Lin Mo first asked Jingxian and her two sons if they had dinner, then went to change their clothes, and then ordered the meal to be delivered.

There were only two of them, so they simply set up a table in Lin Mo's room. They really were some of Lin's chef's specialty dishes. The old duck was cooked for half an afternoon, and the heat was enough, not fat or greasy.The steamed fish is delicious and tender, and the color is particularly good when you look at it. There is also Lin Mo's beloved tofu soup, and I don't forget the water-soluble cherry meat that I praised last time, as well as a few emerald green leafy vegetables, which are fresh and bright. a table.

Shui Rong hasn't stopped the banquet in the past few days, but he only cares about intrigue, so he doesn't know how much he really ate.At this moment, his index finger moved a lot, and he ate a lot of japonica rice porridge.His Lin family was well-behaved, they were particular about eating without talking, and the two of them sat very close to each other, eating a meal head-to-head, which gave off a sense of satisfaction.

"I slept on your bed at the time." Shui Rong saw the servants clearing up the table, and walked around his room, "The furnishings have changed."

Even the tent in the middle has been changed.It turned out that Lin Mo, an old man, didn't know what to think. There were a lot of gauze curtains in the room. Lin Mo's slender shadow outside, separated by those layers of cloth, seemed somewhat enchanting and graceful.However, not long after, the male master of the Jingyuan Hou's mansion married his lovely wife, the furnishings in the mansion naturally changed, and the tents in the middle were also replaced with Baizi tents.

Fortunately, the bridal chamber does not have this place, otherwise, even the water solution would feel a bit shy.

"Well." Lin Mo said, "It's not a few years."

Fortunately, the bamboo forest behind the house is still there, leaning against the window, you can still see them growing densely.Shui Rong said: "I thought at the time that you would really enjoy yourself."

It's not about basic necessities - these Beijing Palaces are no worse than anyone else's.Just lying in such a room, listening to the whirling of bamboo leaves when the wind blows outside, looking at the heavy gauze curtains like a dream, even the whispers of those little girls are superimposed with the sounds of birds and insects, which is amazing. My heart couldn't help but quiet down.This quiet enjoyment was something he had never had for many years.

However, what makes people quieter is Jing Yuanhou who is reading quietly outside.

Only later, when Lin Mo finished keeping his father's filial piety, did he realize that the man was not as peaceful as he imagined.He is just a puddle of sea water, and has not yet waited for the gust of wind.

When the wind blows, the waves beat the table.

But even though so much time had passed, he had already understood the blazing fire inside this man's cold face. When the two of them were alone, it still made him feel peaceful.

The candlesticks in the room were lit one by one, and Shui Rong couldn't help but hold Lin Mo's hand.He was already extremely tired, and he came to look for Lin Mo today not for anything else, but to meet people and make himself feel at ease.

Lin Mo reached out and pulled him into his arms.The two sat leaning against each other for a while, but they didn't have any other thoughts.

But this peace is destined to be broken.

"Master, someone has come to the Beijing Palace." Lingge asked outside, "Is it the study room or the Henian Pavilion?" Both his house and the Beijing Palace's guest pavilion are called He Nianxuan, which can be regarded as Not happy to hide it.

Shui Rong asked: "Is it convenient for you here?"

Lin Mo raised his voice and ordered, "Just take me here."

The person who came to the Beijing Prince's Mansion was not considered to be Shui Rong's confidant, so the news he brought was not too secret, and there must be many people who knew about it, but Shui Rong couldn't sleep anymore: "My lord, General Wu has arrived."
