Chapter 48: Looking for someone

With Hanxiang's support, Tang Yuxiang stood up with difficulty. A burst of pain came from her knees, which made her inhale repeatedly and leaned half of her body on Hanxiang's body.

"Is the old lady in the house?"

Hanxiang put one of Tang Yuxiang's arms on her shoulders and walked into the house while saying, "Well, the old lady just took a nap and just woke up."

You took a nap and just woke up?

Tang Yuxiang was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then frowned. Could it be that she heard it wrong just now?

impossible!

Walking into the hall, Tang Yuxiang saw Mrs. Lin sitting in a chair, eating tea leisurely, her face was calm, and she couldn't tell what she was thinking in her heart.

"My granddaughter-in-law pays my respects to the old lady." With Hanxiang's support, Tang Yuxiang walked to the center of the hall, endured the pain, and gave her a blessing.

Mrs. Lin looked her up and down, and did not ask her why her legs hurt. She just nodded slightly and said, "Sit down, how is the matter with Manager Li handled?"

When Tang Yuxiang's legs went weak, she was about to kneel down and reply, but when Hanxiang saw the look in Mrs. Lin's direction, she didn't let go and used all her strength to help her sit on the chair beside her.

"Back to Mrs. Li... Manager Li, he's dead." When it came to business, Tang Yuxiang panicked, biting her lip, and replied timidly.

"Oh." Mrs. Lin's face did not change when she heard this, remaining as calm as before. She just put the teacup in her hand on the table and responded softly, as if the fact that Manager Li died was nothing in her eyes.

It's the same as a big deal.

Seeing that Mrs. Lin was not angry, Tang Yuxiang's heart was hanging for a long time before she calmed down a little. Knowing that Mrs. Lin wanted to hear what was going on, she hurriedly told everything that happened in the hall.

Of course, for Manager Li and his family,

She tried her best to describe the evil deeds she had done, so that although Manager Li was not outraged by both humans and gods, he still deserved to die. After finishing speaking, she took out the paper recording the Li family's crimes and handed it to Mr. Lin respectfully.

In front of Taijun.

Old Mrs. Lin just glanced at those pages and put them on the table. Then her face became stern and her cold eyes covered Tang Yuxiang, "Li Zhong is also my user after all."

I have been a slave for more than ten years, and you beat him to death like this. Do you think you don’t take me as an old woman too seriously?"

At the end of the sentence, Mrs. Lin deliberately raised her voice, which frightened Tang Yuxiang and made her face turn pale. She was about to kneel down and admit her mistake. However, Hanxiang who was standing aside saw this and stretched out her hand to stop her movement.

Seeing that Tang Yuxiang was so frightened, Mrs. Lin's eyes showed a hint of satisfaction, and she continued: "Even if he really deserves death, shouldn't you send someone to say hello to me in advance?"

"Yes, old lady, it's my granddaughter-in-law who didn't think well, please punish me." Tang Yuxiang swallowed hard, feeling that her little heart was jumping up and down, reaching the height of her throat.

"Forget it, you have a bad background, have never managed the chores in the backyard, and are still young. You will inevitably make some mistakes when doing things, so let's forget about it."

She secretly punished Tang Yuxiang by kneeling for more than an hour, and threatened her a few more times. Knowing that the heat was enough, Old Mrs. Lin waved her hand magnanimously and stopped pursuing further.

"Thank you, old lady, for not punishing me!" Tang Yuxiang quickly stood up and gave her a blessing.

Mrs. Lin waved her hand, indicating for her to sit back down, and said: "It's not a big deal, just think about it more when doing things in the future. Also, the injury on your arm hasn't healed yet, so you need to

Rest, I won’t assign you any work tasks at the moment.”

Tang Yuxiang knew that Mrs. Lin didn't want to give her power at the moment, so she nodded in agreement. In her heart, she didn't want to worry about the Lin family's backyard. It was possible that she was willing to stay in her own small house peacefully.

In the courtyard, nothing is done.

The two chatted for a few more words, and then Tang Yuxiang withdrew. As soon as she turned around the door of the small courtyard, she leaned against the courtyard wall, touched her heart with her hand, and let out a long sigh of relief.

This hurdle has finally passed.

Zhidong and Zhiqiu followed behind, exhaling a long breath, their eyes filled with the joy of surviving the disaster, as if they had just entered not Mrs. Lin's hut, but the gate of hell.

Liuxiang waited until the three masters and servants of Tang Yuxiang could no longer see their backs, then turned around and returned to the hut. He saw Old Mrs. Lin dozing off with her eyes closed. After enduring it for a long time, she finally asked: "Old Mrs. Lin, in your eyes

, is the second grandma really suitable to be the next generation matron?"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Lin's eyes suddenly opened, gleaming with energy. Liu Xiang was so frightened that she took several steps back and knelt on the ground with a plop, trembling.

After looking back and forth at Liu Xiang for several times, Mrs. Lin asked calmly: "What do you think?"

"Back to Mrs. Lin, I don't have any opinion. I just think that the second grandma is a bit soft-tempered and a little timid." Liuxiang was afraid that Mrs. Lin was overly concerned, thinking that she also wanted to participate in the affairs in the backyard, and she felt regretful.

Soft-tempered? Timid?

Mrs. Lin slowly shook her head. If Tang Yuxiang was really soft-tempered, would she have bravely resisted after being robbed into the Lin Mansion? If Tang Yuxiang was really timid, how dared she ask the guards to rescue the man two days ago?

Mr. Zheng?

When there is no room for resistance, bowing your head and being submissive is not called being soft-tempered!

Being afraid before death cannot be called cowardice!

Everyone is afraid, and fear is a good thing if the time is right, as it was just now, it is easier to control.

After waving her hand, Mrs. Lin signaled Liu Xiang to retreat.

After Yang Wei retreated, Lin Jingzhi did not leave immediately. Instead, he had lunch in the small courtyard and then walked out of the door with Shi Mo. Although he was a little worried that Tang Yuxiang would encounter difficulties when dealing with Manager Li,

But Mrs. Lin didn't want him to interfere with the affairs in the backyard, and he didn't dare to disobey.

This is not because he is afraid of Mrs. Lin's censure, but because he is worried that after he intervenes, Mrs. Lin will not do anything to him, but will vent his anger on several of his women, especially Tang Yuxiang, who handled this matter.

He will feel distressed.

"Shi Mo, do you still remember that two years ago, there was a person in charge of land reclamation, Zhang Jia, Mr. Zhang?" Lin Jingzhi asked as he walked on the street.

Shi Mo has an excellent memory, and he remembered it in just a blink of an eye, and replied: "I remember, Mr. Zhang did a lot of good things for the people back then, but Mr. Zhang was resigned last year."

"Yes, it's hard to be a good official for a long time. Do you know Mr. Zhang's address?" Lin Jingzhi asked again.

"Going back to the Second Master, Mr. Zhang lives in Beicheng. The environment there is not very good. Almost all the people living there are tenants who rent their fields. What's wrong? Second Master, do you want to find Mr. Zhang?" Shi Mo wondered what the master would do.

I will suddenly think of visiting an official who has resigned.

Before he resigned from his post, Zhang Jia was just a farm chief and a minor official of the ninth rank.
