Lin Jue and Lin Hu stood far away on the street corner, his attention was not on the fact that the Qian family was dragging a lot of people through the streets. His focus was on the other side of the street. Noon has long passed, and the time for Lin Boyong and Zhang Yi to meet has arrived, and what Lin Jue wants to see is Lin Boyong's arrival. Otherwise, the arrest of the street patrol will come soon, and this farce will be greatly reduced without Lin Boyong's witness.

Finally, a black sedan chair appeared in front of him, and Lin Jue saw the figure of Huang Changqing, the housekeeper walking briskly beside the sedan chair, at a glance. came, Lin Boyong came to the teahouse in the spring to see Zhang Yi, and the show began. It's a pity that Lin Jue can't appreciate this good show, the longer he stands here, the more likely he is to be discovered by acquaintances.

"Let's go, go home."

Lin Jue pulled Lin Hu, and the two turned around and went into the alley and disappeared without a trace.

……

Lin Boyong sat in a sedan chair and closed his eyes to recuperate. Lin Boyong, who has to take a nap every afternoon to maintain his energy, rarely goes out after lunch. Especially in this scorching season, no one wants to go out after noon.

But Zhang Mian sent a little servant to send a letter to meet at the Chunlai Teahouse, and Lin Boyong couldn't help but go. Because the transportation of the Lin family's shipping and the transportation of various imperial court materials were all obtained with the help of Zhang Mian. This also gave the Lin family a huge profit and a hand that could be proud of the others. You must know that I don't know how many shipping companies want to take this business, and his Lin family was able to crush all opponents to obtain the transportation right of Jiangnan Caoyun, and I don't know how many people are jealous.

Zhang Mian's brother is Zhang Jun, the third envoy of the dynasty, and Zhang Mian is the general judge of Hangzhou, except for the prefect Yan Zhengsu, he is the biggest official in Hangzhou. Therefore, this layer of relationship must be maintained so as not to let the opponent take advantage of it. Not to mention that his second brother Lin Bonian is Zhang Jun's deputy, and he needs to maintain a good relationship with the Zhang brothers. So if Zhang Mian wants to see himself, he must see him.

However, when he received Zhang Mian's note last night, Lin Boyong felt a little strange. I just met and drank tea a few days ago, so Zhang Mian wanted to see himself again. And the words on the note are also a little strange. What' Lin Weng wants to meet and drink tea in the spring tea village, I should be happy to come, not to see or leave. ’。 It's a no-brainer. But Lin Boyong didn't think too much about it, he could see it if he wanted to, and it didn't hurt. Seeing each other more often brings you closer.

The sedan chair was very stuffy, and Lin Boyong couldn't sleep at all, only squinting his eyes to recuperate, thinking about what to say to Zhang Mian for a while. Suddenly, his thoughts were interrupted by a loud and noisy human voice in front of him.

"Changqing, what's going on on the street?" Lin Boyong opened his eyes and asked.

Huang Changqing wiped the sweat on his face with his sleeves, leaned over the sedan curtain and said, "Master of the family, there seems to be something happening on the street in front, and someone is arguing. There were a lot of onlookers in the block, and it seemed that they couldn't get by. ”

Lin Boyong frowned and said, "Let's take a detour." ”

"The master of the family, there is a spring tea house in front of you, there is no way to detour, you will arrive in a moment. It seems to be just a trivial matter, but it is much more lively. The head of the family, let's go straight over. ”

"It's okay, tell the little guys to go ahead and open the way." Lin Boyong said.

Huang Changqing hurriedly said: "I'll take people personally." ”

Huang Changqing walked with a few small servants in the head, shouting and giving way as he walked. Lin Boyong lifted the sedan curtain and looked out. The sedan chair walked forward slowly, and then Lin Boyong was stunned for a moment. He saw the Qian family who was scolding the menacing Qian with his waist crossed, the half-naked woman who was picked up on the street, and at the same time saw Lin Quan who was practicing hard with his head down.

"Stop the car, stop the car." Lin Boyong shouted.

The sedan chair stopped, and at the same time, the angry Huang Changqing also ran to the sedan chair.

"Master, why don't we go the other way."

Lin Boyong shouted coldly: "What kind of way? Did you see them too? You want to hide it for them, do you? ”

Huang Changqing's mind was broken by a word, he had also seen Qian and Lin Quan just now, and he quickly knew what was going on. In order not to let Lin Boyong see this scene, he hurriedly came back and asked for a different way. But Lin Boyong has seen all this.

Lin Boyong got off the sedan chair with a blushing face and strode into the crowd. Qian Shiwu waved his hand and scolded, and ordered people to drag many people forward. She didn't see Lin Boyong, but Lin Quan saw Lin Boyong's figure walking with a blue face. Lin's face turned white and he almost fainted to the ground.

"What are you doing here?" Lin Boyong shouted angrily.

"What's the matter with you?" Qian, who had his back to Lin Boyong, didn't know about Lin Boyong's arrival at all, so he casually said a word.

It wasn't until he saw Lin Quan and the maids bowing down and calling 'Master of the House' that Qian turned his head in shock. Then she saw Lin Boyong's cloudy face.

Lin Boyong quickly figured out what happened, and he was about to go crazy. Lin Quan and his wife actually did such a thing, exposing their family ugliness on the street, which is simply intolerable.

However, the more embarrassing thing was still behind, just as he ordered everyone to go back to the house immediately, Zhang Mian arrived on the street in front of him with his entourage. Zhang Mian's expression after learning about this made Lin Boyong eager to find a crack to drill into. Although they are partners in interests, in fact, both of them look down on each other. Zhang Mian looked down on Lin Boyong as a businessman, and Lin Boyong actually looked down on Zhang Mian for relying on his brother's power to promote and accumulate wealth. Today's incident made Zhang Mian see that Lin Boyong would inevitably be ridiculed by Zhang Mian in the future.

Soon after, the arresters on the street heard the news. The law of the Great Zhou Dynasty forbade street fights and disturbances, and although this matter was not a big deal, it was inevitable that he would be dragged to the yamen for inquiry. Fortunately, Zhang Mian, the general judge of Hangzhou, was present, and Zhang Mian ordered that there was no need to take people to arrest him, but he avoided the matter of pulling Lin Quanqian and others to the yamen to go to the court, but it also made Lin Boyong even more annoyed. accepted Zhang Mian's favor in vain, and was three points shorter in vain.

Naturally, I was in no mood to talk about drinking tea with Zhang Mian's teahouse, and Zhang Mian also expressed his understanding. There is such a humiliating thing in the Lin family, and a person like Lin Boyong must deal with this matter first. When he said goodbye, Lin Boyong even forgot to ask Zhang Mian why he invited him to come to the spring tea house today. After confessing the crime, Lin Boyong ordered Lin Quan, the Qian family and a group of small maids to go home with him.

On the way, he had already made up his mind to severely punish Lin Quan. Today's events will soon spread throughout the city, and soon the Lin family will become a laughing stock, no matter how Lin Quan and his wife make trouble, but they shouldn't make such a bad thing all over the city. Therefore, he must severely punish Lin Quan and show outsiders that the Lin family's family law is rigorous and serious.

……

In the hall of the Lin family, Lin Quan and the Qian family knelt down in dejection. At this moment, the Qian family finally understood that today's matter was a big one. Originally, she thought very simply, just to make Lin Quan ugly, humiliate the woman named Duoduo, and vent the evil anger in her heart.

But who would have thought that Lin Boyong happened to pass by and made an appointment with Zhang Yi, which was a lot of fun. It can be seen from Lin Boyong's face that he is about to go crazy.

Lin Boyong sat on the top with a gloomy face, and looked coldly at Lin Quan and Qian who were kneeling in front of him. In the hall, there were more than a dozen direct sons and women. Lin Quan's mother, Jiang Shi, also stood aside with a pale face.

"What is the reason why my Lin family has been able to stand for hundreds of years? It relies on my Lin family's strict family rules, generation after generation of virtuous and self-disciplined, and cherishing family honor. As a member of the Lin family, the first thing that comes to mind is to maintain the reputation of the family, because any of us who lose the support of the Lin family will be like a rootless Ping and will do nothing. Because of this, after the old man became the head of the Lin family, everything he wanted and did was here. Teach the children to cherish the family honor and strict family law, which the old man emphasizes all the time. However, today's events really made the old man sad and angry. ”

Lin Boyong spoke coldly, and everyone was silent and didn't dare to speak.

"On weekdays, I'm actually lenient enough for a few rooms in the direct family. There are some things that I turn a blind eye to and pretend not to see. But today, you've gone too far. Do you still take the reputation of my Lin family seriously? In front of the public, in full view of the public, you will expose such ugly things to the world. It's okay for you to make noise at home, but you still have to make trouble to this point, do you still have the Lin family in your eyes? And me, the head of the family? Is there still a family law? Lin Boyong asked sharply.

Lin Quan lay on the ground and mourned: "The head of the family is angry, I know that it is wrong, this matter is wrong with me, and I am willing to be punished by the head of the family." ”

Qian also kowtowed and said, "Family master, spare us this time, we will never dare to do this next time." ”

Lin Boyong said coldly: "Now I know that I was wrong, but it's a pity that it's too late." You have already caused a very bad impact, and within a day, the whole city will be talking about the two of you, and my Lin family will also be treated as a joke. Don't blame me, I must punish you, otherwise it will be difficult to correct the name of the Lin family. ”

Qian opened his mouth, but did not speak.
