The Landlord's Silly Husband gl
Chapter 31 The Bullied Little Daughter-in-law
Jiang Yuan naturally saw the grievance that was about to overflow in Lin Kong's eyes. It would be better if she just cried out, but she has been enduring it all the time, which makes people feel distressed.
"Why are you crying again?" Jiang Yuan gently wiped the corners of Lin Kong's eyes with a handkerchief, and didn't find it troublesome because she loves to cry.
But Lin Kong didn't think so. She was worried that Jiang Yuan didn't like to see her cry, but now that she knew that Jiang Yuan didn't like her, she was even more afraid that she would be dismissed as a crybaby.
"Kong'er didn't... didn't cry, there was water in his eyes." Lin Kong shook his head and denied, "My lady, your handkerchief just now was too wet, and the water got into my eyes."
"But my handkerchief is obviously very dry." After Jiang Yuan finished speaking, he twisted the handkerchief in a decent gesture, raised his head and said innocently: "Look, there is no water."
When Lin Kong heard this, he knew he couldn't hide it any longer, he just sniffed, turned his head away and didn't speak.
Jiang Yuan has never said that he likes her. When Song Keyan said it just now, she did not refute it. This caused Lin Kong's heart to have an unknown panic, and his eyes became more and more red, and tears flowed silently down his cheeks. , looks like a little daughter-in-law who has been bullied.
Jiang Yuan looked helplessly at Lin Kong who was left with the back of her head again, she wrung out the veil again, turned around to face Lin Kong, and gently wiped her cheeks.
Lin Kong dodged back a little angry, just not letting Jiang Yuan wipe the tears off his face.
Jiang Yuan paused for a moment, then said softly: "If you cry too much, you won't be likable."
These words seemed to be casted by magic, Lin Kong suddenly raised his head to look at Jiang Yuan, obediently asked Jiang Yuan to wipe his face, there were tears in her eyes, which were still on the verge of falling, making her look even more pitiful.
After the sticky feeling on his face disappeared and his whole face became refreshed and comfortable, Lin Kong gently hooked Jiang Yuan's little finger, and asked timidly, "Lady, you like Kong'er, right?"
After she finished speaking, her big eyes were opened like this, a little naive without knowing it, and there were countless expectations and lights inside.
Jiang Yuan looked at Lin Kong's dark brown pupils in a daze, Lin Kong only had her in his eyes, but her eyes were filled with too many things.
She withdrew her emotions and asked without answering: "Kong'er, do you think your parents like you?"
Lin Kong's current affair with Lin's father and Lin's mother is still in a state of being sad when she mentions it, and her eye sockets are wet again, and she murmured: "I like it."
"Then do they whisper in your ears that they like you every day?" Jiang Yuan slowly induced.
Lin Kong recalled that on weekdays, Lin's father always had a serious face and caught her home like a chicken, while Lin's mother always had a gentle smile, worrying about this and that for her, But never say anything.
She suddenly missed Lin's father and Lin's mother, and said with a choked voice, "I didn't say anything."
Jiang Yuan reached out and touched her cheek, gently stroked the teardrops under her eyelashes, and said earnestly: "So like and dislike are not just spoken, but..."
Lin Kong asked curiously, "Is it made?"
"..." Jiang Yuan was a little choked, glared at Lin Kong, and then continued with the previous words: "It is slowly felt based on the daily relationship, just like parents like you and love you, but they You won’t talk about it, but you can feel it, and I treat you the same way, do you understand?”
Lin Kong nodded with a half-knowledge, and then said with some confusion: "But the bad girl said that you don't like Kong'er, and she said that your reaction was wrong."
Jiang Yuan felt a little discouraged, and asked again: "Then do you want to believe what other people say, or what I say?"
There is no doubt about this, Lin Kong didn't even think about it, he nodded decisively and said: "Kong'er only believes in what the lady says."
"That's it?" Jiang Yuan said speechlessly.
After hearing this, Lin Kong changed his sad expression just now, with a smirk on his face. It turns out that the lady likes her, but she just doesn't say it, so women always say no, but the body is the most sincere?
Lin Kong once again suspected that this sentence was correct, she wanted to ask Jiang Yuan but dared not ask, so she quietly kept this conclusion in her heart again.
Jiang Yuan didn't know about all this, but felt that Song Keyan had left her in a big trouble, but fortunately she finally coaxed people away, she took out the water basin, came back to comb Lin Kong's hair again, While combing, he said, "Kong'er, let's go and see where there is a good shop."
She plans to open another rice shop. Now she has surplus funds and food, but she lacks a good shop.
When Lin Kong heard that he was about to go out, he said happily: "Lady, can Kong'er..."
"No." Jiang Yuan said without thinking, "Even if you cry this time, there will be no sugar man."
Being guessed, Lin Kong nodded guiltily, and then she thought of a serious question, and asked curiously: "My lady, will you cry too?"
Jiang Yuan didn't expect Lin Kong to ask this question, he paused in the action of tying Lin Kong's hair, and seemed to think for a while before saying: "Yes."
Everyone has emotions and cries, but she just doesn't cry easily in front of others.
Upon hearing this, Lin Kong turned his head, widened his eyes, looked at Jiang Yuan in disbelief, his eyes were full of surprise, and said, "Is the lady crying too? Kong'er has never seen it before."
After she finished speaking, she was a little frustrated, she didn't know how many times she cried in front of Jiang Yuan, but Jiang Yuan had never cried in front of her, and she also wanted the lady to cry in her arms.
Jiang Yuan looked at Lin Kong quietly, since Lin Kong wanted to see her cry so much, then she would not do what she wanted.
Seeing that Jiang Yuan just looked at him and didn't speak, Lin Kong raised his hand to promise: "Don't worry, lady, Kong'er won't dislike you and cry."
"..." Jiang Yuan said angrily, "Who wants you to dislike him?"
If you really want to dislike it, a certain little crying bag doesn't know where it will be disliked.
After both of them changed their attire, Jiang Yuan and Lin Kong went to the street to find a new shop. The shop was not far from the pharmacy, and it was about a street away. Fortunately, the location was superior, and people lived in front and back. A large number of households.
A few days later, there was another breaking news in Xuzhou City, Jiang Yuan was going to open a new rice shop in Xuzhou City, which was unexpected by the city residents.
Since the last murder case went wrong, the people in the city knew that the Lin family medicine shop had masters who could bring people back to life. In addition, the well-known old Chinese medicine practitioners were attending consultations.
The Renhe Pharmacy on the East Street is quite different. Because the medicinal materials caught several times had mildew, the word of mouth has been declining, and his family's business has become worse and worse.
Now Jiang Yuan can be considered to be on the cusp of the storm, but she is going to open a new rice shop, and all the rice shop merchants are worried that their business will not be able to continue. Facts have proved that their worries are right.
Because of the high quality of the grain, Jiang Yuan's rice shop was not damaged at all, and the harvest this year was not so good, so the rice shops in the major rice shops didn't have a lot of grain, and her rice was sold at a low price. Business is excellent.
In just one month, Lin's rice shop became famous far and wide, far surpassing the original few old shops.
Those old shops saw that the business in their shop was getting worse and worse, while the business of Lin's family was getting more and more prosperous, and they were very unwilling, but they had no way to do it. The Lin's family sold all good rice, and the price was lower than theirs. .
People who bought rice ran to Jiang Yuan, what could they do?
Those rice shops who want to take advantage of this year's bad harvest and buy rice at a high price are the most angry. Some shops have even started to send people to watch Jiang Yuan's shop. At that time, he sold the rice in his own store at a high price, but unfortunately Jiang Yuan's rice seemed to be inexhaustible.
"Miss, we are losing money."
In the rice shop of the Lin family, Lin Kong was counting the accounts with his fingers. Their rice only sold for ten renminbi a liter, but others sold it for thirteen to seventeen renminbi a liter. They were at a big loss.
Seeing Lin Kong's serious appearance, Jiang Yuan laughed and said, "Don't worry, you won't lose money."
When she bought rice last year, there was a bumper harvest, and the price of rice was cheap everywhere. Even though there was food in stock at home, the price of rice kept dropping. Although it is sold at a low price, she has earned nearly twice as much money.
Although the prices of other rice shops are high, the quality of the rice is not as good as hers, so there are few people to buy it, and they can't make much money.In addition, she just wants to do a good deed, so that all rice shops can sell rice at a low price, instead of deliberately raising the price to make high profits.
But she is not a good person, she is just a businessman, and she has to earn the money she should earn.
Jiang Yuan confessed to the staff: "Tell the people who come to buy rice that our rice shop has limited grain, and now that the grain warehouse has bottomed out after selling grain at a low price, so from now on, we will only sell a fixed amount every day, and each household has a limited amount. Buy."
In fact, there is still a lot of food in the vortex of the middle finger, but selling it at a low price will only allow those who are willing to buy it in large quantities and sell it at a high price in the future, then she will suffer a big loss as Lin Kong said.
After hearing that the grain at the Lin family’s rice shop had bottomed out, the rice shop that wanted to sell it at a high price was overjoyed. Unfortunately, most of the people in the city who were short of food had already bought enough food for the winter, so the business of those rice shops was still not good. I am also worried that the old rice will go bad, so I can only sell it at a low price.
Now Jiang Yuan has earned a good reputation.
Although she is no longer a newcomer, her shop is still not old enough to be comparable to those century-old shops, but she has indeed established a firm foothold in Xuzhou City. Coupled with the profits from the pharmacy and the fresh-keeping cabinet, she has begun to prosper. Become a little rich man in the city.
However, with money comes not only a sense of security in the heart, but also various troubles and incidents.
Since there is no greenhouse effect, after winter, the weather is extremely cold, Lin Kong's family all changed into fur coats with fur collars, and put on snow-white velvet hats.
Jiang Yuan looked at Song Keyan's pastries that she had put in her place and had only eaten a few pieces of pastries that he had never touched again. Thinking about the current season, he pulled a waiter and asked: "It will be the twelfth lunar month soon, go ask Miss Song about it." Are you still in the city?"
Song Keyan hasn't been to their shop since the last time, and Jiang Yuan didn't deliberately inquire about it. Now she feels that Song Keyan is going to Beijing soon. Since it is her favorite pastry, she should bring some back.
After the guy went out, he came to report not long after: "Master, I have inquired about it. Miss Song is now staying in the silk and satin factory under the name of the Song family. I heard that she will return to Beijing in a few days."
Jiang Yuan frowned and thought for a while, then pushed the cakes that were still covered with red cloth to the table, and said: "You find a safe person to deliver these cakes to her."
"Let's go now, little one." The man said politely.
"Forget it, there's no need to go." Jiang Yuan thought about it and felt that it was a bit inappropriate to do so. If the person delivering the pastry tampered with the pastry on the way, wouldn't she be harming Song Keyan? She has always been very cautious about eating. .
Putting this matter aside for the time being, you can ask Song Keyan to take it by herself.
When it was time for dinner, Jiang Yuan and Lin Kong were sitting together. She noticed Lin An and Lin Wan's expressions were unnatural, and asked concerned: "Sister, what happened when you went out today?"
Lin An has been staying in the pharmacy these days, she has no intention of remarrying, Jiang Yuan is willing to take care of them all the time, the family is harmonious and happy, and Lin Wan is still young, so naturally she lives in Lin Kong's elder brother's house.
It's just that there will still be a lot of people gossip, for example, Lin Wan will soon be 16 years old, and it's time to find her husband's house, or Lin An is already nineteen and twenty, and if she doesn't find her husband's house, she will become an old girl.
Jiang Yuan thought they were worried about this.
Lin An said worriedly: "Ah Yuan, when Wan'er and I were going out today, we met a dandy from an official family on the street. He seemed to be interested in Wan'er, but Wan'er is still young now, and his parents didn't care about it when they were alive." How should I wish my children to be married to officials?"
Now the Lin family, Jiang Yuan, has the most say, and she has the most ideas, but after all, the people are no match for officials, so Lin An is worried.
Jiang Yuan frowned and thought about it, feeling that this matter is not simple.
Hearing them talk about their marriage, Lin Wan blushed slightly, and said, "Sister-in-law A Yuan, I don't want to marry, at most I won't go out anymore."
Lin Kong comforted them and said, "Don't worry, the lady will find a solution."
Jiang Yuan shook his head, and said bluntly: "This is not a problem that can be solved without going out. When we were poor, we went to the street countless times without being ignored by anyone. Now we just have a small amount of money, and we are dismissed." Look at it, this is destined to be inevitable."
Lin Wan's face turned pale immediately, and Lin An also said anxiously: "Then what should I do?"
Having been married before, she knows best what is wrong with her husband's family, and she doesn't want Lin Wan to suffer in the future, and those officials' children really look down on them as businessmen, let alone they were just small farmers before.
"It's time to find a reason to refuse." Jiang Yuan naturally wouldn't let Lin Wan marry an unknown official son, she thought about it, and decided: "Nowadays, the parents in the family have just died not long ago, and the children have to be parents. After three years of filial piety, it is naturally not suitable for marriage, so I will use this reason when the time comes."
Two days later, a matchmaker really came to propose marriage. The other party was the nephew of the new Governor. That man relied on his uncle to be the biggest in Xuzhou City, and robbed women everywhere. This time, he wanted to marry Lin Wan as his concubine.
Jiang Yuan rejected the marriage according to the previous words. The matchmaker had a bad face when he left, but Jiang Yuan was talking about Xiaoyi, and she couldn't find a refute, so she could only plan to go to the house to add more fuel , I hope the fault is not hers.
Jiang Yuan didn't know about these things, she was very busy for the last two days, she had to take care of the shops at both ends, and she had to do the fresh-keeping cabinet by herself, she was a little dizzy at the moment, and even asked Song Keyan to pick it up Forget about the pastry.
One day, when she came back from the rice shop, she saw a strange man lying on the floor of the pharmacy, and Xiao Si was covering his mouth and feeding the man medicine.
Jiang Yuan took a closer look and saw that the man was dressed in ragged clothes. Song Keyan's previous reminder suddenly appeared in his mind. It has only been more than a month now, and the time when the refugees entered the city happened to be just right. She said vigilantly: " Xiaosi, who is this person?"
Xiao Si stopped his movements, and confessed with a look of panic: "Boss, you are finally back. When I was in the clinic today, I suddenly heard a commotion outside. When I came out, I saw this man fainted outside our pharmacy, but You have ordered before that if you suspect that you are a refugee from the Northwest, you should first ask about the situation and then seek medical treatment."
"But today, there was a group of people making noises outside. Before I started asking, they started making noises, saying that our pharmacy has no medical ethics and doesn't even treat dying people. It's really useless as a pharmacy. I can only discuss with Master to save him first. We'll make a decision when you come back." Xiao Si looked at Jiang Yuan tremblingly after finishing speaking.
Jiang Yuan frowned, but turned his eyes to the ground again. Although the man lying on the ground was sallow and thin, his wrists were obviously strong and strong, which was not a physical condition that a refugee could have.
"Since they're all saved, let's revive him first, and I'll find someone to look after him for you. This...you can't let him lose money for medicine and the like."
After Jiang Yuan finished speaking, he asked Shiqi to come over and watch the man for help. On the surface, he was afraid that he would run away and not pay for the medicine, but in fact, he wanted to see if the man had kung fu.
"Miss Shiqi, does that person know kung fu?" Jiang Yuan felt uneasy.
Shi Qi nodded and said: "He does have skills, but he was seriously injured in order to pretend to be a refugee, and there is no great danger. Miss Jiang, we should have been targeted early in the morning, should we leave now?"
Jiang Yuan understood what Shiqi meant. It was obvious that someone wanted to frame them. Now this person is in the pharmacy, and a group of people have seen the whole process before, so as long as she deliberately wants to slander her, even if she kills this person It's impossible to explain it beyond silence, and it's impossible for those people to accuse her of such a crime.
Jiang Yuan shook his head and said, "Miss Shiqi, I can't leave."
Shiqi is from Jianghu, he doesn't stick to trivial matters, and if one person is working, the whole family will do the work, so the first reaction is to leave directly, but she is different, those two shops are not very important to her, and Lin Kong has time, so follow Shiqi Qi Ye could barely protect himself, but Lin An, Lin Wan, and dozens of fellows in the two shops would also be implicated.
What's more, her running is tantamount to being convicted of a crime, but she still has chips, and it's not that she has no chance of winning.
She discussed with Shi Qi in a low voice: "If something really happens, I invite you to go..."
Jiang Yuan and Shi Qi explained everything about the future clearly, and went to look for Lin Kong again. Recently, Lin Kong's kung fu has progressed rapidly, as if something that was already in memory returned, and she learned it effortlessly.
Seeing Jiang Yuan walking towards him, Lin Kong hurriedly raised the bamboo stick used as a sword envoy, and gestured happily: "Lady, Kong'er can perform a complete set of sword moves today. Shi Qi said that the internal force in my body will become stronger and stronger. The more full it is, the better it will be to protect the lady in the future."
In her opinion, being able to protect Jiang Yuan well is the most glorious thing in the world.
Jiang Yuan smiled lightly as she watched her gesture, and sighed thoughtfully: "Kong'er, can you feel the existence of internal force now?"
"Yes, but only a little bit, lady, are you unhappy?" Lin Kong noticed that Jiang Yuan was not in a good mood, and said worriedly.
Lin Kong can always guess her mood very sensitively, Jiang Yuan shook his head and said, "I'm happy, I just don't want you to suffer with me."
She is sure to get out of the body, but suffering is inevitable.
Lin Kong was a little puzzled, why Jiang Yuan said these words, but he still said firmly: "Kong'er is not afraid of hardship, and Kong'er will protect the lady for the rest of her life."
The author has something to say: Ahhh, the relationship line is finally about to begin!
Under the action of the little leather whip, I finally drove the new chapter out T^T
It's just a step late, please praise me
"Why are you crying again?" Jiang Yuan gently wiped the corners of Lin Kong's eyes with a handkerchief, and didn't find it troublesome because she loves to cry.
But Lin Kong didn't think so. She was worried that Jiang Yuan didn't like to see her cry, but now that she knew that Jiang Yuan didn't like her, she was even more afraid that she would be dismissed as a crybaby.
"Kong'er didn't... didn't cry, there was water in his eyes." Lin Kong shook his head and denied, "My lady, your handkerchief just now was too wet, and the water got into my eyes."
"But my handkerchief is obviously very dry." After Jiang Yuan finished speaking, he twisted the handkerchief in a decent gesture, raised his head and said innocently: "Look, there is no water."
When Lin Kong heard this, he knew he couldn't hide it any longer, he just sniffed, turned his head away and didn't speak.
Jiang Yuan has never said that he likes her. When Song Keyan said it just now, she did not refute it. This caused Lin Kong's heart to have an unknown panic, and his eyes became more and more red, and tears flowed silently down his cheeks. , looks like a little daughter-in-law who has been bullied.
Jiang Yuan looked helplessly at Lin Kong who was left with the back of her head again, she wrung out the veil again, turned around to face Lin Kong, and gently wiped her cheeks.
Lin Kong dodged back a little angry, just not letting Jiang Yuan wipe the tears off his face.
Jiang Yuan paused for a moment, then said softly: "If you cry too much, you won't be likable."
These words seemed to be casted by magic, Lin Kong suddenly raised his head to look at Jiang Yuan, obediently asked Jiang Yuan to wipe his face, there were tears in her eyes, which were still on the verge of falling, making her look even more pitiful.

She suddenly missed Lin's father and Lin's mother, and said with a choked voice, "I didn't say anything."
Jiang Yuan reached out and touched her cheek, gently stroked the teardrops under her eyelashes, and said earnestly: "So like and dislike are not just spoken, but..."
Lin Kong asked curiously, "Is it made?"
"..." Jiang Yuan was a little choked, glared at Lin Kong, and then continued with the previous words: "It is slowly felt based on the daily relationship, just like parents like you and love you, but they You won’t talk about it, but you can feel it, and I treat you the same way, do you understand?”

She plans to open another rice shop. Now she has surplus funds and food, but she lacks a good shop.
When Lin Kong heard that he was about to go out, he said happily: "Lady, can Kong'er..."
"No." Jiang Yuan said without thinking, "Even if you cry this time, there will be no sugar man."

If you really want to dislike it, a certain little crying bag doesn't know where it will be disliked.
After both of them changed their attire, Jiang Yuan and Lin Kong went to the street to find a new shop. The shop was not far from the pharmacy, and it was about a street away. Fortunately, the location was superior, and people lived in front and back. A large number of households.
A few days later, there was another breaking news in Xuzhou City, Jiang Yuan was going to open a new rice shop in Xuzhou City, which was unexpected by the city residents.
Since the last murder case went wrong, the people in the city knew that the Lin family medicine shop had masters who could bring people back to life. In addition, the well-known old Chinese medicine practitioners were attending consultations.
The Renhe Pharmacy on the East Street is quite different. Because the medicinal materials caught several times had mildew, the word of mouth has been declining, and his family's business has become worse and worse.
Now Jiang Yuan can be considered to be on the cusp of the storm, but she is going to open a new rice shop, and all the rice shop merchants are worried that their business will not be able to continue. Facts have proved that their worries are right.

In fact, there is still a lot of food in the vortex of the middle finger, but selling it at a low price will only allow those who are willing to buy it in large quantities and sell it at a high price in the future, then she will suffer a big loss as Lin Kong said.
After hearing that the grain at the Lin family’s rice shop had bottomed out, the rice shop that wanted to sell it at a high price was overjoyed. Unfortunately, most of the people in the city who were short of food had already bought enough food for the winter, so the business of those rice shops was still not good. I am also worried that the old rice will go bad, so I can only sell it at a low price.
Now Jiang Yuan has earned a good reputation.
Although she is no longer a newcomer, her shop is still not old enough to be comparable to those century-old shops, but she has indeed established a firm foothold in Xuzhou City. Coupled with the profits from the pharmacy and the fresh-keeping cabinet, she has begun to prosper. Become a little rich man in the city.
However, with money comes not only a sense of security in the heart, but also various troubles and incidents.
Since there is no greenhouse effect, after winter, the weather is extremely cold, Lin Kong's family all changed into fur coats with fur collars, and put on snow-white velvet hats.
Jiang Yuan looked at Song Keyan's pastries that she had put in her place and had only eaten a few pieces of pastries that he had never touched again. Thinking about the current season, he pulled a waiter and asked: "It will be the twelfth lunar month soon, go ask Miss Song about it." Are you still in the city?"
Song Keyan hasn't been to their shop since the last time, and Jiang Yuan didn't deliberately inquire about it. Now she feels that Song Keyan is going to Beijing soon. Since it is her favorite pastry, she should bring some back.
After the guy went out, he came to report not long after: "Master, I have inquired about it. Miss Song is now staying in the silk and satin factory under the name of the Song family. I heard that she will return to Beijing in a few days."
Jiang Yuan frowned and thought for a while, then pushed the cakes that were still covered with red cloth to the table, and said: "You find a safe person to deliver these cakes to her."
"Let's go now, little one." The man said politely.
"Forget it, there's no need to go." Jiang Yuan thought about it and felt that it was a bit inappropriate to do so. If the person delivering the pastry tampered with the pastry on the way, wouldn't she be harming Song Keyan? She has always been very cautious about eating. .
Putting this matter aside for the time being, you can ask Song Keyan to take it by herself.
When it was time for dinner, Jiang Yuan and Lin Kong were sitting together. She noticed Lin An and Lin Wan's expressions were unnatural, and asked concerned: "Sister, what happened when you went out today?"
Lin An has been staying in the pharmacy these days, she has no intention of remarrying, Jiang Yuan is willing to take care of them all the time, the family is harmonious and happy, and Lin Wan is still young, so naturally she lives in Lin Kong's elder brother's house.
It's just that there will still be a lot of people gossip, for example, Lin Wan will soon be 16 years old, and it's time to find her husband's house, or Lin An is already nineteen and twenty, and if she doesn't find her husband's house, she will become an old girl.
Jiang Yuan thought they were worried about this.
Lin An said worriedly: "Ah Yuan, when Wan'er and I were going out today, we met a dandy from an official family on the street. He seemed to be interested in Wan'er, but Wan'er is still young now, and his parents didn't care about it when they were alive." How should I wish my children to be married to officials?"
Now the Lin family, Jiang Yuan, has the most say, and she has the most ideas, but after all, the people are no match for officials, so Lin An is worried.
Jiang Yuan frowned and thought about it, feeling that this matter is not simple.
Hearing them talk about their marriage, Lin Wan blushed slightly, and said, "Sister-in-law A Yuan, I don't want to marry, at most I won't go out anymore."
Lin Kong comforted them and said, "Don't worry, the lady will find a solution."
Jiang Yuan shook his head, and said bluntly: "This is not a problem that can be solved without going out. When we were poor, we went to the street countless times without being ignored by anyone. Now we just have a small amount of money, and we are dismissed." Look at it, this is destined to be inevitable."
Lin Wan's face turned pale immediately, and Lin An also said anxiously: "Then what should I do?"
Having been married before, she knows best what is wrong with her husband's family, and she doesn't want Lin Wan to suffer in the future, and those officials' children really look down on them as businessmen, let alone they were just small farmers before.
"It's time to find a reason to refuse." Jiang Yuan naturally wouldn't let Lin Wan marry an unknown official son, she thought about it, and decided: "Nowadays, the parents in the family have just died not long ago, and the children have to be parents. After three years of filial piety, it is naturally not suitable for marriage, so I will use this reason when the time comes."
Two days later, a matchmaker really came to propose marriage. The other party was the nephew of the new Governor. That man relied on his uncle to be the biggest in Xuzhou City, and robbed women everywhere. This time, he wanted to marry Lin Wan as his concubine.
Jiang Yuan rejected the marriage according to the previous words. The matchmaker had a bad face when he left, but Jiang Yuan was talking about Xiaoyi, and she couldn't find a refute, so she could only plan to go to the house to add more fuel , I hope the fault is not hers.
Jiang Yuan didn't know about these things, she was very busy for the last two days, she had to take care of the shops at both ends, and she had to do the fresh-keeping cabinet by herself, she was a little dizzy at the moment, and even asked Song Keyan to pick it up Forget about the pastry.
One day, when she came back from the rice shop, she saw a strange man lying on the floor of the pharmacy, and Xiao Si was covering his mouth and feeding the man medicine.
Jiang Yuan took a closer look and saw that the man was dressed in ragged clothes. Song Keyan's previous reminder suddenly appeared in his mind. It has only been more than a month now, and the time when the refugees entered the city happened to be just right. She said vigilantly: " Xiaosi, who is this person?"
Xiao Si stopped his movements, and confessed with a look of panic: "Boss, you are finally back. When I was in the clinic today, I suddenly heard a commotion outside. When I came out, I saw this man fainted outside our pharmacy, but You have ordered before that if you suspect that you are a refugee from the Northwest, you should first ask about the situation and then seek medical treatment."
"But today, there was a group of people making noises outside. Before I started asking, they started making noises, saying that our pharmacy has no medical ethics and doesn't even treat dying people. It's really useless as a pharmacy. I can only discuss with Master to save him first. We'll make a decision when you come back." Xiao Si looked at Jiang Yuan tremblingly after finishing speaking.
Jiang Yuan frowned, but turned his eyes to the ground again. Although the man lying on the ground was sallow and thin, his wrists were obviously strong and strong, which was not a physical condition that a refugee could have.
"Since they're all saved, let's revive him first, and I'll find someone to look after him for you. This...you can't let him lose money for medicine and the like."
After Jiang Yuan finished speaking, he asked Shiqi to come over and watch the man for help. On the surface, he was afraid that he would run away and not pay for the medicine, but in fact, he wanted to see if the man had kung fu.
"Miss Shiqi, does that person know kung fu?" Jiang Yuan felt uneasy.
Shi Qi nodded and said: "He does have skills, but he was seriously injured in order to pretend to be a refugee, and there is no great danger. Miss Jiang, we should have been targeted early in the morning, should we leave now?"
Jiang Yuan understood what Shiqi meant. It was obvious that someone wanted to frame them. Now this person is in the pharmacy, and a group of people have seen the whole process before, so as long as she deliberately wants to slander her, even if she kills this person It's impossible to explain it beyond silence, and it's impossible for those people to accuse her of such a crime.
Jiang Yuan shook his head and said, "Miss Shiqi, I can't leave."
Shiqi is from Jianghu, he doesn't stick to trivial matters, and if one person is working, the whole family will do the work, so the first reaction is to leave directly, but she is different, those two shops are not very important to her, and Lin Kong has time, so follow Shiqi Qi Ye could barely protect himself, but Lin An, Lin Wan, and dozens of fellows in the two shops would also be implicated.
What's more, her running is tantamount to being convicted of a crime, but she still has chips, and it's not that she has no chance of winning.
She discussed with Shi Qi in a low voice: "If something really happens, I invite you to go..."
Jiang Yuan and Shi Qi explained everything about the future clearly, and went to look for Lin Kong again. Recently, Lin Kong's kung fu has progressed rapidly, as if something that was already in memory returned, and she learned it effortlessly.
Seeing Jiang Yuan walking towards him, Lin Kong hurriedly raised the bamboo stick used as a sword envoy, and gestured happily: "Lady, Kong'er can perform a complete set of sword moves today. Shi Qi said that the internal force in my body will become stronger and stronger. The more full it is, the better it will be to protect the lady in the future."
In her opinion, being able to protect Jiang Yuan well is the most glorious thing in the world.
Jiang Yuan smiled lightly as she watched her gesture, and sighed thoughtfully: "Kong'er, can you feel the existence of internal force now?"
"Yes, but only a little bit, lady, are you unhappy?" Lin Kong noticed that Jiang Yuan was not in a good mood, and said worriedly.
Lin Kong can always guess her mood very sensitively, Jiang Yuan shook his head and said, "I'm happy, I just don't want you to suffer with me."
She is sure to get out of the body, but suffering is inevitable.
Lin Kong was a little puzzled, why Jiang Yuan said these words, but he still said firmly: "Kong'er is not afraid of hardship, and Kong'er will protect the lady for the rest of her life."
The author has something to say: Ahhh, the relationship line is finally about to begin!
