Chapter 14 The Uninvited Guest
The next day, because Lin Kong hadn't rolled it with an egg last night, there was still an obvious slap mark on Lin Kong's skinny and tender face, Jiang Yuan got up early, rolled her with an egg, and then went to put the ox cart on Well ready to go.
As soon as they left the inn, three people blocked the way at the door.
Lin Kong thought those people belonged to Song Keyan, and with his slightly red and swollen face, he stepped forward to confront him.
However, the other party was obviously not Song Keyan's person, the leader was a guard-like person, he ignored Lin Kong, but directly said to Jiang Yuan: "Master Jiang, my shopkeeper would like to invite you to come and talk."
As soon as Jiang Yuan heard it, she understood that the person who came was the subordinate of Shopkeeper Bai of Tianyuan Tavern, and she didn't intend to stay in the city, so she declined politely: "Now I am eager to return to my hometown, and I am afraid that I will take advantage of Shopkeeper Bai's kindness, next time I come to the city At that time, we will definitely meet again with the shopkeeper."
That person was also very far-sighted, he didn't bother him too much, he seemed to know Jiang Yuan's words would be like this, he cupped his hands and said: "My shopkeeper asked me to tell Mr. Jiang that if there is something useful in the future, no matter how big or small, Even if you go to Tianyuan Tavern, the shopkeeper will definitely help you."
Jiang Yuan naturally also knew what shopkeeper Bai was up to. Now it seems that shopkeeper Bai is not the person who followed them yesterday, because this shopkeeper seems to have everything in mind, and he predicted that she would come to the city again.
She replied: "Then thank Shopkeeper Bai for his kindness first, and Jiang Yuan bids farewell."
Afraid of being suspicious, Jiang Yuan's ox cart had all the goods bought yesterday, so it was a bit slow at first, except that the road was a little cold, and there were no robbers or anything.
Halfway through the journey, making sure there were no pedestrians around, Jiang Yuan still put all the food into the whirlpool, so the cow only pulled the weight of the two of them, and it was going downhill again, so they walked extremely fast.
Before noon, they went to the hillside facing the village chief.
Lin Kong wanted to go home earlier, and she was observing how far she was going home along the way. She had good eyesight, and when she was sitting in the bullock cart, she saw the situation in the village, and said a little strangely: "My lady, there are many people."
Jiang Yuan felt bad when she heard it, and looked up, her eyesight was not as good as Lin Kong's, and she could only see some moving red figures in the yard from a distance.
With a thought in her mind, she suddenly pulled the rope and said anxiously: "We have to go faster."
The cow walked faster again, and when he was about to reach the village, Jiang Yuan took out all the things again. As for the rice she secretly bought, it was still placed in the whirlpool.
"My lady, the person in the yard is Fatty Liu." Lin Kong saw clearly who that person was at a glance, she jumped out of the car in a hurry and ran forward quickly.
Jiang Yuan didn't have time to speak, only saw some swaying shadows, Lin Kong disappeared in front of her eyes, just when she was about to let the cow go faster, Lin Kong appeared in front of her again.
She wondered: "Why did you fall back again?"
Lin Kong blushed and said without panting, "Lady, I'll wait for you."
Half a quarter of an hour later, the two arrived in the village in an ox cart. The person in the Lin family's yard was indeed Liu Wangcai. He was wearing a red wedding dress with a big red hydrangea hanging on his body. He looked more and more like a greasy ball of meat .
A few porters followed in the distance, and those porters stood at the gate of Lin Kong's house carrying red sedan chairs that must be not too big or small.
In the small courtyard of the Lin family, Father Lin was angrily holding a hoe, and Mother Lin was hugging Lin Wan, whose eyes were red.
Jiang Yuan didn't expect that so many things happened at home after they left for just over a day, so he drove the cow into the yard even more eagerly, ignoring the bearers, the cow walked over and knocked over the sedan chair.
Seeing them, Mother Lin hurried forward and said, "A Yuan, you are back."
Seeing the red marks on Lin Kong's face again, he felt distressed and said, "Kong'er, your face..."
"Mother, Kong'er is fine." Lin Kong looked at Liu Wangcai angrily, and then said to Lin Wan: "Wan'er, don't be afraid, I will protect you."
Lin Wan was terribly frightened, but nodded slightly.
Jiang Yuan glanced at Liu Wangcai and the others, and saw that besides Liu Wangcai, there were also some villagers who just watched the fun and didn't think it was a big deal. He frowned and said, "Mother, why did they come to the house?"
Mother Lin opened her mouth and was about to speak when Liu Wangcai said first, "Of course it's because my master is coming to get married."
"Bah! As long as our Lin family doesn't agree, don't even think about it!" Father Lin said angrily, and raised the hoe in his hand after speaking.
Liu Wangcai was a little afraid of Father Lin's hoe, took a step back, and then said with a sinister smile: "Your Lin family rented two acres of fertile land from my master, and this year has a bumper harvest, but when paying the rent, you have missed a lot of food. Now I want you to pay back 20 If you can't pay back the two silver coins, then we can only write off the money matter if we become in-laws."
Liu Wangcai thought he had made a good plan, and now the young girl of the Lin family was not in his pocket. When he thought about the bed, he became lustful, and squinted his fat little eyes to look at Lin Wan.
Jiang Yuan took a step forward, just blocking his line of sight, and said in a cold voice, "Master Liu, you are such a noble person who forgets things too much, and you have counted the food yourself."
Liu Wangcai's eyes were immediately attracted by Jiang Yuan. He pinched his beard and hummed, "So what? When I went to the granary to look at the grain today, I found that it was moldy. It must be your Lin family's second grain. Good food."
He said this on his lips, but he began to think in his heart, if he could marry Jiang Yuan together, and Jiang Yuan had the method to keep the grapes fresh, that would be a wonderful thing.
Father Lin saw that not only did Liu Wangcai want to occupy Lin Wan, but now he also wanted to take advantage of Jiang Yuan, he said angrily: "The food my family handed over must be the best, Liu Wangcai, don't bully me too much, wait until Dashan invites the village chief Come, let the village chief judge."
"Village head? The village head has to rent my field." Liu Wangcai said contemptuously, "And it's your Lin family that I deceived. Who doesn't know that your Lin family is not only poor, but also doesn't even have a son. A fool."
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, and immediately staggered two steps back. Just as he was about to curse, he bent down in pain. When he looked up, the person who beat him was gone.
Liu Wangcai trembled all over his face. He was obviously very panicked, but he forced himself to calm down and said, "Who? Come out to my master, don't play tricks."
But Lin Kong who beat someone had already run to Jiang Yuan, and said aggrievedly: "My lady, Kong'er is not a fool."
"Then you can prove it to everyone." After Jiang Yuan finished speaking, he whispered in Lin Kong's ear: "For a while, you just hit him in the stomach. As long as no one is killed, you can play as you please."
Lin Kong's eyes lit up, he nodded, and then slipped towards Liu Wangcai in a flash.
Seeing that the situation was wrong, Liu Wangcai's bearer and servant stepped forward with fists clenched, but they couldn't even get close to Lin Kong's body. However, Liu Wangcai was hit in the abdomen again and again, and he cried on the ground in pain.
Every time Lin Kong beat Liu Wangcai on the fat in his stomach, she was afraid that he would not hurt enough, so she beat him harder, and Liu Wangcai was beaten to the ground panting in a short while.
Jiang Yuan stepped forward and said: "Master Liu, you know in your heart whether the food has been missed, our Lin family is not easy to bully."
Liu Wangcai was panting heavily, and the wedding clothes on his body were covered with mud. He never expected that the Lin family's idiot would be so powerful. While slapping himself, he begged for forgiveness: "Yes, yes, the food is a lot, it's me Greed is my greed."
After solving Liu Wangcai's matter, Lin's father and Lin's mother did not feel relieved, but became more nervous and said, "Kong'er."
Lin Kong said happily: "Mother."
Mother Lin touched her still red and swollen face, and said helplessly, "Konger, you are too impulsive."
Looking at all this, Jiang Yuan knew that Lin's father and Lin's mother really knew that Lin Kong would practice martial arts, but she kept it a secret from her. She could also guess that Lin's father and Lin's mother were trying to hide his identity for Lin Kong, but now they have been It's unbearable to be bullied to such an extent.
Afterwards, the family was peaceful for a long time. As for the extra money, Jiang Yuan said that the things he brought were sold at a good price. As for whether Lin's father and Lin's mother were pregnant or not, she didn't care. In short, she neither stole nor robbed. It's earnable.
After the Chinese New Year, Jiang Yuan discussed with Lin's father and Lin's mother about going to the city again. She decided to go to the city to do business. Now she wants to continue to live as the original owner. A farmer all his life.
Lin's father and Lin's mother strongly disagreed at the beginning. Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and businessmen have always been ranked at the bottom, because businessmen have always been contemptuous because of opportunistic opportunism.
Jiang Yuan clarified the current situation at home, instead of living in poverty, it is better to let them go out for a break, otherwise this small landlord can bully others.
Lin's father and Lin's mother knew that Jiang Yuan went to the city and sold a lot of things, so they knew that she was not a treasure.
Besides being bullied here, Lin Kong is also in great danger. Lin Kong shouldn't belong to such a poor place, and they can't protect Lin Kong, so they agreed to let Jiang Yuan and Lin Kong go together.
"Mother, after we gain a foothold in the city, we will come to take you into the city." Jiang Yuan and Lin's mother said.
"Mother is used to living in the countryside, so she just wants to farm." Mother Lin refused with a smile, "Yuan, remember to protect Konger no matter what."
"Well, I will do my best to protect her." Jiang Yuan promised, she knew that Lin's mother had a knot in her heart, and in Lin's mother's heart, Lin Kong was the most important thing, and now they are going to the city now, I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse.
On the eve of leaving, Jiang Yuan secretly put a large part of the grain she bought at a low price in the grain cellar in the granary. If you don't look carefully, you can't see that there is too much grain.
After Jiang Yuan returned to the room, he found that the room had been turned over by someone.
