When I woke up again, it was already evening.

I learned from the maid that Shen Yourong had already gone out. He was very busy with business recently and had to come back very late every day. By then, Yang Lin might have already fallen asleep. Whether it was intentional or not, he had avoided it perfectly. The time when the two may meet.

Well, that's okay. It's really troublesome if they meet frequently. Two people with no emotional basis are tied together because of a marriage contract. It's actually quite embarrassing to get along. To say the least, The current way of getting along is actually quite good for everyone. At least on the surface, it is still harmonious. Of course, no one is so bored that he will pursue deeper things. As Sanfang said, he is just an outsider, not worth……

A few days passed in the blink of an eye. Yang Lin had become accustomed to this kind of life, and his body gradually recovered. He began to exercise in the house, starting with the simplest martial arts boxing. Later, he felt that the house was too small, so he moved to the yard. Anyway, He and Xiaoyun were the only two people in such a big yard, and even the cook was borrowed from the second room.

When Yang Lin was practicing boxing, Xiaoyun watched him several times. At first, she was worried that her uncle was sick again. Scholars these days generally think of themselves as aloof and look down on rough guys who dance with guns and sticks. My uncle suddenly started boxing in the morning, which really surprised him. She was nervous for a while, but seeing that his health was getting better and better, and remembering the doctor's instructions, she followed him.

There were also several times when Yang Lin wanted to cook for the little girl himself and get some snacks for later generations, but Xiao Yun drove her out with a serious look, saying that a gentleman is far away from the kitchen, even though the previous Yang Lin was a person who had not even taken the tribute examination. A scumbag who passed the exam is equivalent to the later generation who failed to pass the junior high school exam, but in the eyes of the little girl, he was also an extraordinary cultural person. Of course, it was related to the fact that the Shen family was a merchant family, and they had a natural admiration for scholars.

I have encountered a lot of other miscellaneous things in the past few days, such as some differences in daily life. If a person who is accustomed to modern life travels to ancient times, he will always feel some differences in all aspects, such as the almost masochistic toilet used when going to the toilet. Toilet chips, and light meals that are as simple as oil and salt, these all take time to get used to. Although papermaking has been invented long ago, it is still in the high-end luxury industry, and it is a bit unrealistic to use it to make toilet paper. To improve the food, you must have the opportunity to cook.

Finally, on the ninth afternoon after traveling through time, when Yang Lin was practicing boxing in the yard, he happened to meet Shen Yourong who had returned from outside, and the two had their first official meeting.

…

When Shen Yourong saw Yang Lin boxing in the yard, he was slightly startled for a moment, then took out a handkerchief: "

Xiaoyun said that my husband has been exercising recently, and he thought he was sweating so much just by walking around. My husband is still injured, so he should be careful not to catch a cold."

Regardless of whether it is the past life or this life, this should be the first time the two of them have met. The girl's behavior at the moment is normal. She seems to be greeting her intimately, but in fact she still maintains a certain distance. After all, she is a strong woman who has been in the business for a long time. Even Yang Lin admired this point.

If he were the nerd from before, he might be a little embarrassed now and unconsciously fall into her rhythm and control, but as a bystander, Yang Lin could still see a trace of unnaturalness in her expression and movements, and he felt uncomfortable with Shen To Rong, these things are extremely unfamiliar, but it can be seen that she is trying hard to make some changes.

Yang Lin took the handkerchief and said, "I'll do it myself."

Shen Yourong naturally let go of his hand.

"I came back very early today."

"Yeah, I've been running around here and there for the past few months, and I'm almost done with things."

Shen Yourong's face was obviously a little tired, and while he was speaking, his eyes were looking at Yang Lin slightly. He probably felt that the man in front of him seemed a little different from the man in his impression, and he thought that the other man would be dull and speechless. Who could Knowing that he would take the initiative to pick up the conversation.

"Have you eaten yet? I'll ask the cook to prepare some food for you." Yang Lin asked habitually.

"Not yet, but I'm not hungry, just a little tired. I plan to go back to the room first."

"Well, call me if you need anything." Yang Lin said naturally.

This polite remark, which was very common in later generations, made the girl look slightly weird, but she didn't say anything more, just nodded, and walked inside.

After a while, Xiaoyun walked in from the side door, carrying a bucket full of washed clothes. When she saw Yang Lin and was about to say hello, she suddenly saw the handkerchief in his hand. She was stunned and subconsciously asked: " Uncle, has Miss come back?"

Yang Lin nodded, and suddenly found that something was wrong with the little maid's face. He looked towards the room on the second floor, but hesitated to speak, her expression was full of worry.

"What's wrong?"

Before she finished speaking, she saw Xiaoyun clenching her hands tightly and her eyes were red, as if she was about to cry.

Well, things seem a bit serious...

Yang Lin was stunned, and then asked: "

What happened?"

"Miss..." The little maid was already in a panic. She pulled Yang Lin's clothes, looked up at him and said, "Miss hasn't slept for two days. Please persuade her to do something in the shop." What's more important, and not as important as your body, is that those people don't follow the rules and want to push the Shen family to death... Miss, she has tried her best. She has thought of all the ways she could think of in the past few months. If the other party is not Prime Minister Cai's person, , maybe it can still be solved, but, but... wuwuwu, uncle, please help the young lady quickly. "

No wonder the atmosphere at home has been a little strange these days. Except for idlers like Yang Lin, everyone seems to be very busy, coming in and out. Even Xiaoyun, who has always been lively and cute, has become silent. Of course, in addition to taking the initiative to do more Apart from housework, she actually can't help much. When it comes to specific shopping mall disputes, especially when the other party is obviously well prepared, many things are beyond what this small team can handle.

Just like the Prime Minister Cai mentioned repeatedly by the little maid, it should be Cai Jing, the Prime Minister of the dynasty. At this level of officialdom, it is impossible to personally take action against a business family, otherwise it will not leave the Shen family for several months to struggle and breathe. It should just be someone who is attached to him and wants to deal with the Shen family for some purpose.

The possibility of making money is unlikely, otherwise the Shen family would have sent people to take care of it. It is not uncommon for the Shen family to survive by cutting off its tail. The old man of the Shen family can build such a big family business from scratch. It doesn't seem like he doesn't have the courage. It’s even more impossible if it’s for the sake of fame.

Although the history of Yang Linlai went astray, the Qian Dynasty and the Song Dynasty were actually very similar. Although the economy was developed, the status of merchants did not improve significantly. After several generations of the Shen family, not even a serious scholar No, even if you want to be a treacherous minister, you can't get a good reputation against the Shen family.

What is that for?

It's a pity that Yang Lin was just a nerd in the past and had no qualifications to contact these. He only knew that when the Shen family was in Hedong, he was a well-known herbal medicine dealer. After his family moved to Bianjing, he joined the nobles and his business expanded a lot. The old man of the Shen family is very talented in business. He worked hard in the early years and laid a solid foundation for the Shen family.

But after all, he is getting old and has reached the age of retirement. Several of his shops have been divided among his sons to take care of. As the only one among the younger generation who owns his own shop, Shen Yourong is indeed favored by the old man. He is ready to He was trained as an heir, but he didn't expect that when things came to pass, something like this would happen.
