When you are busy, it feels like time always passes quickly. After the Lin family had settled all their affairs, they had already settled in the capital for more than ten days.
Lin Yuanshan found a way to ask someone to send a letter of safety to his hometown. After all, he took away good things from the old men before leaving, and he couldn't be so careless.
Speaking of this good thing, he couldn't help but start to worry. He didn't know how that little bastard Lin Youan was doing.
He was worried about a lot, but Lin Youan's progress was relatively smooth. With Lord Shen who was eager to show his love, what could he not understand?
Holding the paper in his hand, Shen Mufeng's eyebrows knitted together. It's not that he understood what was wrong with it, but he really couldn't understand this so-called secret recipe at all.
"Is this passed down from your ancestors?"
"I heard from the elders in my family that this is probably the case."
Look how serious that kid is now?
You must never say something categorically about something you are not sure of. Otherwise, if you are slapped in the face in the future, it will be very painful.
This was the earnest teaching from his great uncle, and he understood it immediately and threw it all in Lord Shen's face.
"Sir Shen, do you think this secret recipe is real? Can Minister Chu trust me?"
This black-hearted brat had dug a hole right in front of him? Shen Mufeng looked at him expressionlessly, while Lin Youan showed a standard innocent expression and laughed a few times.
This clever child was testing them, and both of them knew it. In the end, Shen Mufeng compromised and took the so-called Lin family secret recipe into his hands.
"Waiting for my news."
"Hehehe, thank you Uncle Shen!"
It's not easy for this little bastard to earn the name of uncle from him. Lord Shen raised his eyebrows in a disdainful manner, but the smile hidden in his eyes was so obvious.
He tapped the table lightly with his fingers and began to ask serious questions.
"Didn't Lord Chu say that he wanted to recommend you to the Hongwen Academy? Is there a plan for this?"
"Well, a few days ago, I went to the Chu Mansion with my mother to pay a visit to my uncle. He said that he was already arranging this matter, and there will probably be some results in the next two days. He asked me to just wait at home."
Lin Youan's voice is not loud, but his pronunciation is very clear.
"The Lin family's secret recipe is real. The wine-making method on the market today comes from our Lin family. My father developed it a few years ago based on the recipe left by our ancestors."
Shen Mufeng paused. He reflexively rejected the existence of the legendary man, even if it was just a name. As long as he thought of the words "Chu Chu's deceased husband" hanging on this man's head, he would dislike this world for a quarter of an hour.
"Ah."
He raised his eyelids and looked at the little crow. Suddenly, it didn't seem so cute anymore because of its black color!
"So, what do you want?"
For a child with a rough life, reading people's expressions is almost an instinct. Lin Youan immediately sensed the slight change in the other person's mood. Although he didn't understand why, he still stood up and bowed.
"I want the Lin family to rely on to gain a foothold in the capital."
The emotion in Shen Mufeng's eyes changed again. He found that this child could always give him many surprises.
"You are not sleeping on the streets now. The ten-mile red makeup in Chuchu's hand is not watered at all. It is true that all the assets of the Gu family were confiscated."
"You also said that it was my mother's red dress."
Lin Youan has a small body, but hides a great spirit.
"I am a man after all. I can't just rely on my mother's dowry to live, can I? I have converted all the property left by my father into silver and brought it with me. It is not a problem to support myself to study and take the imperial examination, but it is still a bit stretched to support the whole family.
So Uncle Shen, please take this recipe seriously. Find some skilled craftsmen to try forging it. I believe our ancestors would not lie.
If you can really make better iron tools and weapons, and present them to the emperor, wouldn't that be considered a merit?"
He is not ashamed of his current financial difficulties. A mentally strong person will never be afraid of encountering any difficulties, but will try every means to find the best way out.
For example, now, Lin Youan, who is clear-headed, knows that this so-called secret recipe will not have much effect in his hands. But in the hands of the powerful Lord Shen, it is completely different!
Yes, he had never thought about exchanging anything with Minister Chu. He was always looking for Shen Mufeng.
Lord Shen, who was entrusted with an important task, only began to truly value the piece of paper in his hand. If what this brat said was not a lie, then he could indeed ask the craftsmen to give it a try.
As a general who had once been stationed on the frontier, no one knew better than him how important a sharp weapon and a hard suit of armor were to the soldiers who were always ready to fight on the battlefield!
Even though he has now been recalled to the capital to protect the capital, it does not mean that he does not miss his former compatriots who are still fighting in the north.
"Okay, I understand. Just wait for the news. If you can really figure it out, I will definitely ask for credit for your Lin family in front of His Majesty!"
"Thank you, General Shen!"
This time the worship was particularly pious.
"Hmph, there's no need to pretend like that with me. Hurry up and finish your homework. If there's anything you don't understand, make sure you catch up. Otherwise, Master Chu will really recommend you to the Hongwen Academy and you'll embarrass him again."
In response to the other party's unwilling ridicule, the kid calmly retorted.
"Thank you Uncle Shen for your concern and care. Youan will remember to speak well of you in front of mother!"
"........."
Very good, he hit the vital point with one hand.
Shen Mufeng closed his mouth quietly.
In this round, the brother with the child who is doted on by his mother has a clear advantage.
Lin Youan was in a very good mood, until he returned home and saw these guys who had come into the house uninvited. The happy smile quickly shifted from his face to the corners of their mouths.
"Brother Youan, you're back?"
Zhao Jiuniang held Lin Qianqian's hand and greeted them in a familiar manner. She looked so relaxed that if you didn't know better you would think this was her home.
Sometimes Lin Youan couldn’t understand why this crybaby from the Zhao family had such an ability to always find their house so accurately and quickly?
He remembered that he had never sent him any message, so how did they know?
Yes, them!
Pei Dingyang and Wu Zhongzhao, who were sitting on the other side, drank tea and ate snacks while waving their paws at him comfortably.
"You back, bro?"
