Husband and Father Youwei

Chapter 71 Tu Wenqiang Reports the Letter

    Tu Lin had already expected that Mrs. Li and the others would not let it go, so when he saw Tu Wenqiang appearing at his door soon, he didn't feel any surprise.

Although he separated from the Tu family, but in this world where filial piety is greater than heaven, as long as Tu Fu is around, he can use his father's identity to make trouble for himself at any time, and he can't completely solve Tu Fu and others for a while. , So I thought about planning for a rainy day, finding a suitable person to help me look after the Tu family, and if anything happened, I might as well report a letter to myself so that I could prepare in advance.

As for this suitable candidate, Tu Lin's first thought was Tu Wenqiang.

Although Tu Wenqiang was a little lazy and idle, but in Tu Lin's memory, he still respected and loved Tu Lin as a big brother. Later, Yuanchen became stupid. Although he never helped Yuanchen, he never underestimated bullying. is to turn a blind eye. After all, as a son of man, he is only a junior, and he, his wife and children are still supported by Tu Fu and Li Shi, so how dare he sing against Li Shi.

But even so, compared with the rest of the Tu family, Tu Lin didn't have any disgust towards him. In particular, although Tu Wenqiang is the son of the Li family, his treatment in the Tu family is only higher than that of the Tu Lin family. Although he hadn't been treated as harshly as Tu Lin, he was far from being able to compare with Tu Wendong, and even worse than Tu Xinyue. It was only because Tu Wendong made Tu Wenqiang recognize Tu Yu in order to preserve his reputation.

Therefore, when Tu Lin met Tu Wenqiang in the store a few days ago, who was giving food to Tu Wenqiang and came to buy soap for his wife, he stayed there for a while. After a few words, it was discovered that Tu Wenqiang was really dissatisfied with Tu's father and Li's eccentricity, and also a little jealous of Tu Wendong, so he became more sure of his plan.

It's not difficult to persuade Tu Wenqiang to help him, and he doesn't need Tu Wenqiang to deal with the Tu family. He just wants Tu Wenqiang to write a letter to himself when the Tu family is about to deal with him, and he still has money. How could Tu Wenqiang not unwilling.

It's just that he didn't expect that Tu Wenqiang's role was more important than he imagined. It has only been more than half a month since he started selling soap, and Mrs. Li and the others could no longer hold back.

When Tu Wenqiang finished talking about the plan of Li Shi and others, Tu Lin couldn't help sneering, it was really a good plan, and it was vicious enough. Naturally, Zhuxi Village was no exception to the conscription. He also knew it. He heard that it was the Di people from the north who knocked on the side and fought fiercely with Da Zhou's army. Fortunately, they won in the end, but with heavy casualties. In order to replenish the soldiers, the imperial court issued a conscription order. But he was the only strong man in his family, so it was not counted, and so was Tu Xinmei's family, so he didn't take this matter to heart, but he didn't want Li to plan to use the conscription to count himself against him.

First force him to return to the Tu family, so that his name can be put on the Tu family's household registration again, and he can be taken to serve as a soldier by Fang Ding. And when he was gone, Tu Wendong had no more threats, Ruan Tang, Tu An, and all his family property fell into the hands of Tu Fu and Li Shi.

Ruan Tang is pregnant now, and Tu An is still young. With Li's temperament, how could he be able to treat them kindly? If there is an accident at that time, it may not be possible to save his life. As for Tu's father, there is absolutely no way to count on them, otherwise they would not have had such a hard time in the past few years, and Tu Xinmei, a married woman, can't take care of her natal family's affairs, just like she could only subsidize them back then, but not Let Tu's father divorce Li's family and treat Tu Lin kindly.

Thinking of this, Tu Lin's eyes were full of darkness that was about to storm, but soon, the corners of his lips curled up again. Li Shi has worked so hard for him, so he can't let him down, and he has to pay back.

After Tu Wenqiang finished speaking, he saw Tu Lin's face darkened, and couldn't help being a little silent. Although in front of him was a face he had seen very familiarly for more than 20 years, but the scene of Tu Lin beating Tu Wendong half to death at the beginning made him only fearful of this face. After the calculation, he came to report to Tu Lin almost without delay.

It cannot be denied that when he heard Tu Wendong say that when Tu Lin was taken away, all of Tu Lin's family property and shop would belong to them, and his benefits would be indispensable at that time, he was moved for a moment. But for some reason, he always felt uneasy in his heart, feeling that things would never develop as expected by Li Shi and Tu Wendong. Seeing the smile on Tu Lin's face at this moment, Tu Wenqiang couldn't help feeling more and more sure.

"Brother, what are you, what are you going to do?" Although Tu Wenqiang was afraid of Tu Lin, but Tu Lin never took his anger out on him because of Li Shi, so he was still kind and pleasant, which made him a little more courageous.

"How to do it?" Tu Lin smiled, but he didn't say it clearly, but put it off, and said, "You will know when the time comes." Mrs. Li never thought that Tu Wenqiang would

report to him, so he discussed with Tu Wendong When they found him, they didn't avoid Tu Wenqiang, so that Tu Wenqiang listened to their plans very carefully. When will Mrs. Li and Tu's father come to him, what will they say when they find him, and where will Tu Wendong hide during this period? , and now Tu Wenqiang has told him one by one.

Although I could completely refuse Li Shi and Tu Fu's request when they came to the door, and arrest Tu Wendong to threaten them, but this time Tu Lin didn't want to let them go easily. Mrs. Li can use the matter of conscription to count himself, and he can naturally use the matter of conscription to count them. In this way, let Li get a taste of what it is like to be self-inflicted.

Seeing that Tu Lin didn't say anything, Tu Wenqiang couldn't help showing an uneasy look on his face. He could guess that Tu Lin was probably planning to do something for revenge, which made him a little worried. After all, he is also the Tu family, and Li's own son, what if he is involved?

But although Tu Wenqiang's fear of Tu Lin prevented him from asking out his concerns, Tu Lin could see it, so he said, "Don't worry, I know what I will do to you. It's getting late , go back. Remember, don't let other people see what it is, just pretend that you haven't come to me today, and you haven't said anything to me. Otherwise, my plan will be ruined, and I can only settle other people's accounts It's on your head." After speaking, Tu Lin threw a small silver ingot weighing two taels to Tu Wenqiang.

Tu Wenqiang's heartbeat fluctuated up and down at Tu Lin's words. When Tu Lin finished speaking, he was about to swear to promise, when he saw a shiny silver thing throwing at him, he subconsciously stretched out his hand Catch it, and when you see what it is, you will be ecstatic immediately.

At this time, Tu Lin said again: "I will always remember whoever owes me, and I will never forget whoever helped me. Take the two taels of silver to the bar." When Tu Wenqiang was persuaded to help him before, Tu

Wenqiang Lin didn't give money, but only gave Tu Wenqiang two pieces of soap in the bag, but he also said that he would not treat Tu Wenqiang badly. Today, Tu Wenqiang sent himself a message, so he should fulfill his promise.

Seeing the money, Tu Wenqiang was closer than seeing his own mother, holding the money with a smile on his face, all fears and worries were immediately forgotten. He even secretly had the idea in his heart that he hoped that Mrs. Li and Tu Wendong would do more things, and that he could come to Tu Lin more to seek some benefits.

Tu Lin didn't know what to think. According to what Tu Wenqiang told him, Mrs. Li was going to come to the house in a few days, and he had to start making preparations. So after Tu Wenqiang left, he and Ruan Tang explained Li's plan and his own plan one by one, and after Ruan Tang heard that there was no objection, he went to the county without further delay.

In mid-May, the lease of Tu Xinmei's Shilixiang Restaurant expired, but they did not renew the lease. Since the addition of Ruan Tangjiao's new dishes, the restaurant's business has been booming. The small restaurant that can only accommodate about 20 people at the same time can no longer meet the current needs of Tu Xinmei and the others, so they decided to change to a bigger restaurant.

The new restaurant, no, it should be called a restaurant. It is a little far away from Tu Lin's shop, half a city away, but it is also in a very lively and prosperous place, and there are two floors. The name of the restaurant has not changed, it is still called Shilixiang, so regular customers will not find the wrong door.

Because the store is big and there are too many guests to entertain, only Zhao Changping and Tu Xinmei are too busy, so they hired a waiter to help in the front hall, and two aunts to help in the back kitchen. Simple dishes and help Tu Xinmei, one is responsible for washing vegetables and dishes.

Although the monthly expenses are much higher, it is nothing compared to the increased profit after changing the store.

After Tu Lin came to the county this time, he went to the restaurant of Tu Xinmei's family first, and asked Zhao Changping to reserve a private room for himself. Come out so that Tu Lin can bring friends anytime.

When Tu Lin, Tu Fu and others came to the county government office to handle household registration and adoption, it was Master Wei, who was in charge of household registration matters in the county government office, who handled it for them. book. Later, after Tu Lin started selling soap, he accidentally recognized the scribe among the customers who came to buy soap in the store.

Tu Lin wanted to make friends, and he was generous in his actions. The little official was not a lofty and arrogant person, and he quickly became acquainted with him after coming and going. So when he learned of Li's plan, Tu Lin immediately thought of the scribe.

It was not difficult to entertain the scribe, and the scribe quickly agreed. It's just that during the banquet, after Tu Lin made his request, the scribe couldn't help showing a look of embarrassment. Just because Tu Lin actually asked him to help, on the day of Master Wei Muxiu, he helped him perform a scene of fake household registration change.

The scribe was originally reluctant, after all, it would have certain risks, but Tu Lin said that if there was any guilt, he would bear it all, and then gave the clerk a purse. The scribe's expression didn't change much at first, but when he weighed it and found that the purse was not light, he couldn't help but relax.

Tu Lin knew that it was done. But this was the first step, and then he asked the scribes about the imperial conscription. After learning that the conscription was in charge of the conscription by Cui Dian from the county yamen's military office, after the townships handed in the names of the draftees, they reported them to the Ministry of War, so that they could not be changed, and then asked the scribes to help me introduce the recruits. Cui Dianli.

So the next day, Tu Lin invited a guest again in the same private room of Shi Lixiang, and the one he invited was naturally that Dian Cui. Although some money was spent, in the end his goal was achieved. Money can make ghosts grind, let alone a mortal who already has greed and vulgar thoughts in his heart.

The arrangement was so good that Tu Lin resumed his daily life of making soap at home. After another two days, Father Tu and Mrs. Li came to the door on time as Tu Wenqiang said.

They didn't talk nonsense, they asked Tu Lin to return his household registration, and threatened that if Tu Lin didn't listen to them, he would be unfilial and would go to the government to find the county magistrate to punish him. They also said that they were not afraid of what Tu Lin would do to Tu Wendong. Tu Lin tried as much as he could.

Tu Lin was originally worried that he couldn't pretend to be angry and shocked when facing Li Shi and Tu Fu, but he didn't expect that Li Shi and Tu Fu didn't even enter the door, and they were extremely straightforward. After finishing speaking, he finally said that he will wait for him at the gate of the county government office tomorrow, and if he doesn't come, let him look good, and left immediately.

Although Li's words were stern, Tu Lin could see her sternness, and she didn't dare to enter the door or even stay longer, which was the best proof, as if she was afraid that Tu Lin would fight with them. But in fact, Tu Lin didn't know how to treat her, so he let her have sweet dreams for a few days first, and the most interesting thing was when the sweet dreams turned into nightmares.

The next day, Tu Lin appeared at the gate of the county yamen with a gloomy face as expected by Li Shi, and the matter of joining the registration went smoothly as Li Shi expected. Although Tu Fu was a little puzzled that it was a small clerk rather than the master who handled the household registration this time, a few reprimands from the small clerk made Tu Fu, who was extremely afraid of the county government officials, dare not say anything more.

After the household registration was changed, Mrs. Li left the household with a face full of pride, but she didn't see it. After they left, the clerk reopened the household registration book and found the name of the Tu family and Tu Lin's family. That page, and then pulled out this piece of paper with a single twitch, folded it in two, and stuffed it into his bosom.
