"You, you have no proof, don't spit blood!"

Lin Shuwen's face turned from blue to white and then to blue again, a trace of disbelief quickly appeared on his face, and then disappeared quickly, pointing to Lin Wanru and said: "You want to firmly control the Lin family, and you are reluctant to let go of power, so use this despicable To frame your second uncle by means, you don’t have the Lin family in your eyes, and do you still have my second uncle!”

"It's because I still have the Lin family and my second uncle in my eyes, so I wanted to suppress this matter..."

Lin Wanru sighed, and said: "But after my second uncle reminded me just now, Wanru suddenly realized that this Lin family is not my Lin family, nor my second uncle's Lin family, but everyone's Lin family. Everyone trusts me so much, Wanru actually wants to I am really ashamed of being selfish..."

"As for the evidence..."

Lin Wanru took out a few pieces of paper from her sleeve, put them on the table beside her, and said, "These are all evidences of Second Uncle's corruption over the past year, one by one, written very clearly, let's take a look."

Lin Shuwen grabbed the pieces of paper and glanced at them, his face immediately turned pale and bloodless.

His legs softened, he knelt on the ground, and wept bitterly, "Wanru, Wanru, you let me go. It was my second uncle who was wrong, and my second uncle was obsessed with ghosts. I beg you, I beg you, don't report to the police to arrest me." , I don’t want to go to jail, I don’t want to go to jail!”

Just now, the second master of the Lin family, who was full of righteous indignation and kept saying that he was thinking of the Lin family, now had a runny nose and tears, and no longer mentioned the matter of splitting up the shop.

Seeing this, the others looked at each other in blank dismay. Someone took the papers and glanced at them, and their expressions changed immediately.

"Second brother, you, why do you..."

"Eighteen thousand taels, you took all the part that was missing!"

"You, you still say Wanru, so it's you!"

Judging by Lin Shuwen's performance, they didn't have to doubt the authenticity of these papers, and there was an uproar in the hall.

Lin Wanru shifted her position a little, stood at Lin Shuwen's side, did not let him face her, looked at the crowd, and said, "This is our Lin family's business after all. What do you think should be done?"

The noisy sound in the hall decreased slightly, and everyone looked at each other, but did not make a sound. This matter is really difficult to deal with.

After all, Lin Shuwen was from the Lin family. If he were to be sent to the court, it would lose face to the Lin family, and it would not be conducive to the stability of the Lin family.

But if it is exposed at this point, it will be regarded as not seeing, and naturally it will not be able to convince the public.

After a while, an old man sighed and said: "Although there are mistakes in the writing, but he is also from my Lin family, so you don't need to bother the government with this matter?"

Another man nodded and said, "Third Uncle is right. The family ugliness should not be publicized. If it gets out, my Lin family will become the laughing stock of Fengzhou City."

"The government doesn't need to trouble you. What do you think Wanru should do about this matter?" Someone shook his head and looked at Lin Wanru.

Lin Shuwen raised his head abruptly, with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

Lin Wanru was silent for a while, then said: "Second Uncle won't take care of the shop's supplies in the future, and I will slowly deduct the money from the second room's money..."

"Thank you Wanru, thank you Wanru!"

Lin Shuwen stood up from the ground, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and said repeatedly.

Lin Wanru turned her head and looked at the other two people: "Third Uncle, Fourth Uncle, you don't have to be busy with the store's affairs these two days. In a few days, I will arrange for a new shopkeeper to come over."

The expressions on the faces of the two people were stunned, it wasn't them who were greedy for ink, so what's the matter with them

"Wanru, this, this is probably inappropriate..."

A man spoke with a look of embarrassment on his face. Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a person behind him.

"Let's do it like this. These things are arranged as Wanru as you look at. For business matters, we listen to you."

"Yes, yes, third and fourth, clean up as soon as you are told, there are so many problems." As soon as the words fell, someone spoke again.

"Okay..." Seeing people keep talking, despair gradually appeared on the faces of the two of them, and finally they could only grit their teeth unwillingly and agree.

"The shop is busy. If I have nothing else to do, I'll leave first." Lin Wanru glanced at everyone and asked.

"No, no, Wanru, go get busy."

"The business of the shop is important, and it's all right here."

"Remember to inform the government and say it was a misunderstanding..."

When everyone heard the words, they opened their mouths one after another. If it was not necessary, they would not stay with her. Even if she stood there silently, she would put an invisible pressure on them...

Today is obviously a big drama where the second and third bedrooms forced the palace. In the end, the second and third bedrooms lost their wives and lost their soldiers. They have nothing to do with the Lin family's business. Heavy…

Looking at the back of her leaving, and Lin Shuwen, who was covered in cold sweat, many people shook their heads secretly. They still underestimated this daughter of the Lin family!

Lin Yong leaned against the door, grinning, seeing Lin Wanru coming out, he hurriedly followed.

"Miss, where are you going now?"

Lin Wanru walked through a moon gate and said, "Go to the shop."

Lin Yong scratched his head, and asked with some doubts: "Ah, don't you go to the yamen when you go to the shop?"

"Why don't you go to the yamen?" Lin Wanru said as she walked, "There is a batch of new goods delayed for two days, remember to remind..."

"Won't the government send someone to arrest the second master?" After Lin Yong was stunned, he didn't care too much. Of course he wanted to go to the shop instead of the yamen.

Seeing that it was almost time for dinner, it would be nice to go to brother Li's place for a bowl of porridge. To be honest, he had never had such delicious porridge in his life.

Although I don’t care if I’m full, after drinking it, I feel full of energy all over my body. I can finally raise my head in front of my mother-in-law at night, but it’s easy to get nosebleeds after eating, so I always have a cloth to block it...

In the small courtyard next to Fanglin Garden, today's meal time was a quarter of an hour earlier than usual.

If it was in time for the meal and two bowls were eaten by that big brother Lin, the meal for the two of them would not be enough.

These are all things that burn money. Today is different from the past, and a penny has to be split into two halves. With those medicinal materials, Miss Liu Er's body has recovered very well, and now she can walk without support. Of course, the current She is still not very able to use her true energy, and most of the time she can only be obedient, and Li Yi can do whatever she wants for the time being without worrying about being retaliated by her...

However, he still had to think of a way to earn more money. This time, he couldn't find a jade pendant worth one thousand taels of silver.

When he was worrying, there was a knock on the door ahead. Lin Yong was not in the habit of knocking on the door. Li Yi looked up at Lin Wanru and asked, "Is the account matter settled?"

In any case, I have accepted so many favors from other girls, and if I can do something for her, it is considered as repaying the favor.

"solved."

Lin Wanru nodded and said, "Thank you this time."

If there weren't those few pieces of paper, what happened this time would actually be a bit troublesome, and she never doubted that there would be so many problems with the accounts that had already been checked.

This time, the scholar picked up did give her a big surprise.

Li Yi waved his hand and said, "You're welcome, this is the job of Mr. Accountant."

There was a rare smile on Lin Wanru's face, and she said: "It's just a stopgap measure, you don't have to take it seriously, to be honest, you really solved a lot of trouble for me this time."

Nearly 20,000 taels of silver permanently wiped out the unstable factors in the family. A few days ago, Lin Wanru never thought that this picked-up scholar would help her so much.

Lin Wanru looked at him and said, "I don't like to owe favors. If you have any difficulties, just ask. I will try my best to help you complete what can be done."

Li Yi looked at her and asked, "I really have to thank you?"

Lin Wanru nodded.

"To be honest, I don't really like to owe people favors." Li Yi thought for a while, and said: "Actually, in the past, when someone asked me to check the accounts, terrible things would happen, and the price was not small... Forget it this time, help me I have helped you too, we owe nothing to each other, how about it?"

Lin Wanru nodded, turned around and walked outside. When she reached the door, she stopped again and asked a question.

"I don't know, what do you mean by the terrible thing you said?"

After finishing speaking, he felt that this sentence was a bit redundant, and before Li Yi could answer, he shook his head, turned and left.

In the courtyard, Li Yi sighed, and said leisurely: "The court is unstable, officials will be dismissed, homes will be confiscated and exiled, and heads will fall..."
