Red Mansions Counterattack Raiders

Lin Ruhai borrowed some of Li Wei's methods, and privately kept an eye on the movements of the Zhen family, the magistrate, and the salt merchants. On the surface, he began to give gifts and visits through the weddings and birthday banquets of each family, so as to get closer and learn more about several suspects.They used to be colleagues in the officialdom. Even if Lin Ruhai is no longer an official, everyone still lives in Yangzhou. Their connections are closely related, so they are willing to spend more time with Lin Ruhai when there is nothing important. An acquaintance is one more way.With so much contact, someone would blurt out a few words by accident, and Lin Ruhai just sneaked in among them and became an inconspicuous person to obtain the information he needed.

The task went smoothly, and Lin Ruhai would write a secret report and report it to Imperial Physician Wang as soon as there was any progress. In terms of medical skills, he can already see some common diseases. What he lacks is experience and needs time to accumulate.However, from the very beginning, he focused on the two children's illnesses, so the doctor Wang could not teach them anything. If he wanted to use better methods to treat the children, he could only rely on Lin Ruhai's own research.

Lin Ruhai took all the medical books at home into the room, and ordered the housekeeper to buy back all the medical books he had never seen before. Combined with the knowledge he had learned in modern times, he perfected the soup and medicine for the two children bit by bit, giving They made an exercise plan, and two months later, on Lin Jin's third birthday, the two children looked much better, making Lin Ruhai happy to drink a jar of wine with Wang Taiyi.

After drinking the last cup, Lin Ruhai's face turned red, and he was already a little drunk. He got up and shook slightly and bowed to Imperial Physician Wang to the end, "Brother Wang! I thank you very much, brother. If you didn't teach me everything, my brother's medical skills Jinyi will never be so fast, brother Wang rescued my child and Lin family's only Miaomiao, you are superb in medicine, I, Lin Hai, respect you!"

Doctor Wang was also a little drunk, patted him on the shoulder and laughed loudly: "Brother Lin, you are welcome, come, sit down, and drink again! I haven't had such a good drink for a long time. I haven't told you, I'm just fine. Have a couple of drinks, just because I'm afraid of getting drunk here. You are a good official, and you are also good at studying medicine! You are talented, talented, and your son was rescued by you. Come on, be happy today, drink !"

Lin Ruhai patted the table and shouted: "Guanyan! Bring the jar of wine!"

"Yes, master." Guan Yan stepped back immediately, thinking about picking out a jar of good wine in person, but he watched the butler hurrying across the corridor from a distance, and he stepped forward and asked suspiciously, "What's the matter with the butler?" So eager? The master and Dr. Wang were happy today, drank a few more glasses, and asked me to get another drink, already drunk."

"What? Drunk?" Butler Lin frowned, "What should I do? Butler Lai from the Rongguo Mansion in Beijing is here, and he brought thirty or forty strong men with him. The visitors are not kind."

Guan Yan took a deep breath, "Could it be possible that you still want to rob people? It hasn't been long since the wife has returned, it seems that the wife is determined to make it difficult for the master! Then...how about I urge the kitchen to give the master Can you cook a bowl of hangover soup?"

Butler Lin nodded and walked forward, "Oh, this is the only way to do it, go and go! I'll report to the master first, let's go!"

Lin Ruhai was listening to Wang Taiyi talking about the changes in Beijing over the years, when he saw the butler come in with a serious face, he sat up straight in surprise, "What's the matter?"

The steward knew that Dr. Wang was an honorable man from Beijing who could not be offended, so he didn't dare to let him avoid it. He stepped forward and bowed in front of Lin Ruhai and said, "My lord, Steward Lai from the Rongguo Mansion is here, and he brought thirty or forty strong men with him." The servant saw his ugly face, so he didn't let those people in. He only led Steward Lai and his servants to the flower hall in front. The servant has already asked Guan Yan to prepare hangover soup. Master, do you want to go over there? See?"

Lin Ruhai narrowed his eyes, "Butler Lai? Da Lai?"

"Exactly, if there are any difficult matters in the Rongguo Mansion, this butler Lai will come forward."

"Oh, it's time to check it out. Don't worry. Let's go after drinking the hangover soup. Lai Da's will serve tea first." Although Lin Ruhai was a little drunk, he was organized and not confused when thinking about things. The imperial doctor smiled apologetically, "My family is unfortunate, I made Brother Wang laugh at me, I can't continue to drink with Brother Wang today, I will ask Guan Yan to deliver the good wine to Brother Wang's room later, and we brothers will drink again when we are free a joy."

Doctor Wang waved his hand indifferently, "It's okay, I drank a lot today. Since brother Lin has family affairs to deal with, I'll go back to my room and drink some time later."

"Okay, then I owe you the drink first, and I will have a good drink with Brother Wang someday!"

Physician Wang nodded, supported the servant's hand and went back to the room slightly shaking.Guan Yan quickly brought over hangover soup, which was cooked according to the prescription given by Wang Taiyi, and it worked quickly. Lin Ruhai drank a big bowl, and immediately became more sober.He got up, straightened his clothes and said with a smile: "Let's go, go and see what the wife is going to do, butler, you transfer all the nursing homes in the mansion to protect the girl and the young master, and there must be no omissions. Guan Yan, find some clever people My servant is waiting outside the flower hall, if I drop the teacup, send someone to the yamen for help, and say that someone has come to snatch my children."

The housekeeper and Guan Yan looked at each other, and hurriedly followed his orders.After all the arrangements were made, Lin Ruhai walked into the flower hall to meet Lai Da, "Why didn't Steward Lai deliver a letter when he came to Yangzhou? I can also send someone to meet him at the pier."

Lai Da wore a detached smile, with an air of condescension, got up and said: "How dare you, the slaves are not worthy of my aunt's concern, but the servants who came with the slaves are still outside the door, if it is convenient for the aunt, please arrange a meeting for them." Where to go, otherwise it wouldn’t look good if there are so many people standing at the door for outsiders to see, wouldn’t it?”

Lin Ruhai sat in the main seat and looked at him and raised his eyebrows, "Don't worry, the housekeeper will arrange these things. How is your aunt in Beijing? Her illness can't be cured at home, and I miss my mother-in-law very much, so I have no choice but to Let her go to Beijing to seek treatment from the imperial physician. Is she better now?"

Lai Dawei frowned slightly, "My aunt is already bedridden, and she only cares about the young master and the cousin, how can she recuperate with peace of mind? The old lady loves the aunt so much that she sent the slaves to pick up the young master and the young lady to Beijing to reunite with the aunt. I hope my aunt can understand me a little bit."

Lin Ruhai picked up the teacup and skimmed off the froth with the lid, "The two children are getting better and better. Traveling far is not conducive to their recovery. If your aunt did not insist on seeing the old lady, I would not take the risk of sending her in." Beijing. Besides, the children grew up in Yangzhou, and if they rushed to Beijing, they might not be acclimatized to the environment. They can’t stand the trouble at such a young age. If your aunt really loves the children, it’s impossible for them to come to Beijing. I agree with your aunt on this matter. It has been concluded for a long time and will not be changed, I am afraid that you will have to make a trip in vain."

Lai Da came here with the mission of the old lady, how could he just go back like this?He had already inquired clearly beforehand that the Lin family had nothing to rely on now, no matter what method, as long as he could bring the child back, he would be able to do business. He didn't care about other things, but the old lady promised him something good after this matter was done. It's all his fault, as long as he can teach Lin Ruhai a lesson and make this aunt bow down to the Jia family.This is the private house given to him by the old lady, he must take care of it!

Seeing that Lin Ruhai didn't intend to let him go, Lai Da became impatient, "My aunt, my cousin and my cousin are the grandchildren of our old lady. It's their good fortune that the old lady likes the juniors. You really shouldn't stop me. Auntie It is said that your thoughts have been extreme since you studied medicine. Maybe you have some disease and you don’t know it. According to the servant, what the aunt said is reasonable, so the aunt should quickly ask the doctor to take a look. The young master and the girl will be brought back to the aunt Madam is here, don't worry, there will be an old lady to teach them in the future."

Lin Ruhai took a sip of tea and became more sober than before, "It's your aunt who is extreme. You are very skilled at turning black and white, and I don't know how many people you have harmed. However, Lai Da, no matter what you do in Rongguo Mansion, here is also Yangzhou, do you know what it means to be out of reach? Where my Lin family doesn’t want to go, your Jia family can’t do anything about it.”

"Don't bother my aunt, today I have to take the young master and the young lady away." Lai Da stood up and wanted to go out.

Lin Ruhai looked down at the teacup in his hand, felt sorry for the antique for a moment, and then threw it out forcefully.The porcelain shattered and made a harsh sound, which startled Lai Da. He looked down at Lin Ruhai and shouted in a bad tone: "Master, please don't get angry. The Jialin and Jialin families are always in-laws, and there is no need for enmity. Our old lady This arrangement is also for the good of the aunt, for the good of the young master and the cousin, if the master insists on blocking it, the old lady may not be so easy to talk to."

"Angry? No, no, it's not time for me to get angry, but once you come to Yangzhou, I can't let you come in vain. You have to leave a deep memory. You can go back and do business. Lai Da, you say yes Isn’t it?” Lin Ruhai said slowly, but he was thinking in his heart whether to save or not to save the next time he meets someone who has done evil, he saved Jia Min out of the benevolence of a doctor and told her how to survive, but the result was so bad Get yourself into so much trouble?

Lai Da felt that there was something in his words, as if he had been prepared for a long time, and immediately ordered the valet to go out and ask someone to snatch the child away. As long as the child is in his hands, other things can be discussed. He is the big housekeeper of Rongguo Mansion.As for snatching any good things, when the time comes, I will give [-]% to my subordinates, and the rest will be his.

Lin Ruhai didn't stop the boy from running away, and let the boy call in. The brawny man ransacked in the Lin Mansion, looking for people while rummaging through things. They rushed into the backyard and saw the courtyard that was guarded by layers of guards. A team of police came and locked them up. While struggling, those people lost a lot of hidden things, and they got all the stolen goods!The head catcher in the flower hall personally led someone to gag Lai Da and escorted him out. His movements were very neat. He saw that Guan Yan had used a lot of money before, and Lai Dalian didn't even finish yelling.

The head catcher greeted Lin Ruhai with a smile and said: "Master Lin, those people who caused trouble outside have been arrested. Don't worry, my lord, the little ones will definitely make these young people suffer."

Lin Ruhai shook his hand politely, "I'm not an adult anymore, just call me Master Lin in the future. You don't have to suffer, just follow the rules. Those people outside who want to break into the house and rob my property also want to force it." Snatching my child, you can be punished according to the law, but this kind of person is not worthy of food and shelter."

The head catcher understood, and after saying a few words respectfully, he led people to take Lai Da and the others into prison.Lin Ruhai had frequent contacts with their adults, and now some outsiders broke into the Lin residence to rob, it was like a slap in the face of the yamen!Whatever you say, let those people have a long memory!

The most gloomy cell in the big prison was cleared out to lock up Lai Da and others. The head catcher told the head of the cell, "One meal a day, one can beat casually with no visible scars, and if there are thorns, the whip will be rewarded." , and the rest will be discussed after the adult judges."

The cell boss agreed with a smile, and asked the younger ones to entertain the newcomers.He took the shochu and stewed meat and put it on the table to greet the head catcher to drink.Unexpectedly, after a while, a jailer hurriedly ran over and said: "Boss, Chief Feng, one of the leaders of those people said that he is the chief steward of the Rongguo Mansion in the capital. This matter is just a misunderstanding."

Feng Catcher asked casually while pouring the wine, "The butler? What about the others? You said they belonged to the Rongguo Mansion?"

The jailer hurriedly replied, "That's not true. There is only one boy who said the same thing as the leader. Everyone else said that they were hired by the leader with money, and let them enter Lin's house to snatch the two children. You can keep [-]% of things.”

Feng Baotou sneered, "It's obvious that they are robbing in the name of relatives. Is it true that in-laws will break into the house and rob children? I think they are bullying when Master Lin resigns, right? Don't talk to him!"

"Go, go, don't disturb us drinking, teach them the truth, you can't be so rampant!" The cell boss waved his hand like chasing flies, dismissing the guards.

"Yes! Little one understands!" The jailer ran back with glowing eyes. The brothers who had just been transferred hadn't practiced their hands yet. He happened to use these people to practice. As for the two who lied to him, he would do it himself. Come on!

Lin Ruhai threw Lai Da and others into the prison without any pressure. If he just robbed people, he didn't have much evidence, but Lai Da robbed the Lin family's property so hard that he couldn't blame him. If they didn't let them get rid of half of his life, he would I'm sorry for my mother-in-law's heart!
