Seeing that a month has passed, it is already November in a blink of an eye.

The weather is turning cold, and some homes have begun to burn charcoal fires.

Jiang Ziyan's ready-to-wear store has also launched new styles of winter clothes. At this time, everyone is not wearing so thick clothes. After all, it is not yet the time for snow in the twelfth lunar month.

The new clothes they launched can be said to be new products of the season, and there was an endless stream of people who came to order them as soon as they came out, and the orders were all queued up to a month later.

Even a few samples of clothes hanging on the wall have been bought. This season's clothes depends on who can get started quickly. If you buy them early, you can wear them early when the weather is cold. When others haven't bought them, You have put on a new style, and the rich ladies and ladies in the capital are following this trend.

This alone has brought a huge amount of income to the garment shop, further driving the growth of Lin'an's weaving industry.

Since Lin Zhao left office, many people have switched to planting cotton and sugar cane, and the income is getting better every year.

Don’t forget the man who dug the well. Even though Lin Zhao has been out of office for a long time, whenever he mentions the good life now, everyone will talk about Lin Zhao as a good official.

Just when Jiang Ziyan was worrying about the progress of the Lieyang Army case, Steward Wei came to the palace to report something to him.

Said that Changlin's father came to the house.

Jiang Ziyan was stunned for a moment, Chang Lin's father?

Wei Guanjia said: "The man claimed to be Changlin's father, and said he had evidence to prove it, and he wanted to take Changlin back to recognize his ancestors. This old slave dare not make decisions, so he came here to ask Mr. Lang to take a look."

He was only eight or nine years old when he picked up Changlin. Now that these few years have passed, he is also fourteen or five years old, and has grown into a half-year-old boy.

Now recalling the situation at home that he said at the beginning, it is true that there is no such thing as his father.

Jiang Ziyan thought about it carefully. At that time, Chang Lin said that he had never met his father, and only knew that his mother called him Li Lang.

After his mother became pregnant, his father didn't marry her. Instead, he left without hearing from him because he was timid and fearful of trouble. He didn't take responsibility at all. This is simply a proper scumbag.

It's just that Jiang Ziyan didn't expect that one day they would meet this scumbag again.

After Jiang Ziyan returned to Beijing, he mostly lived in the palace. This time, Steward Wei came to find him specially. He asked his servants to wait for Lin Zhao to come back and tell him that he had returned to Jiang's mansion, and he took Steward Wei away.

The roads in the capital are paved with bluestone slabs, very flat, and the carriage arrived in a short time.

After returning to the mansion, Jiang Ziyan went directly to the main hall. As soon as he entered, he saw a middle-aged man in dark green clothes sitting beside him, but he did not see Chang Lin.

Seeing Jiang Ziyan approaching, this person probably knew that he was the master of the mansion, so he stood up and introduced: "Young Master Jiang, this is Li Bowen, the Secretary of the Imperial Academy, and also the biological father of Ge Changlin, a servant of your mansion. Today I came to pick him up specially. back."

Jiang Ziyan sized him up, he was tall and straight, well-dressed and well-dressed, no wonder he was able to fool Changlin's mother into infatuation.

"You said you were Changlin's father, do you have evidence to prove it?"

"Naturally there is."

Li Bowen took out a jade pendant from his bosom, "This jade pendant was the object of love between me and Qiuniang. Not long ago I found it on Chang Lin's body, and only then did I know that he is my son. And Chang Lin's appearance The appearance is very similar to me, this is the best proof."

Jiang Ziyan took the jade pendant and looked at it. The quality of the jade was very cheap and the carving was very rough. He didn't expect him to keep it all the time.

Jiang Ziyan saw the other half of this jade pendant at Changlin's place, and said it was a relic of his mother. He thought that Li Bowen was indeed Changlin's biological father, that is, the scumbag who abandoned his wife back then.

Jiang Ziyan returned the jade pendant to him, and said: "Although you have produced evidence, your one-sided statement alone is not enough to be believed. I will discuss this matter after I ask Changlin. If he is willing to go with you, I will not stop him. "

Li Bowen was very confident and said very straightforwardly: "Mr. Jiang's words are very true, but presumably Changlin is also willing to recognize me as a father. Now that I am a sixth-rank secretary, if he goes back with me, he will naturally be an official." My son, you don’t need to be servants in other people’s houses anymore.”

He also emphasized the last sentence, as if he was very proud that he could bring a different fate to his son.

Jiang Ziyan was very displeased with his words, and he corrected him: "I have never treated Changlin as a servant, and he has lived very comfortably in the house for the past few years, and he can do whatever he wants to do in these few years Voluntary. So, Sir Si Ye, don't have too much confidence, be careful of self-defeating."

"Mr. Jiang really has a good mouth, but anyway, I have to thank you for taking care of my son these years."

"Don't be in a hurry to thank me. It mainly depends on Chang Lin. I respect his opinion."

After finishing speaking, he said to Steward Wei: "Where is Changlin?"

"Back to your lord, Changlin is still in the winery, the old slave has sent someone to invite him back just now."

Jiang Ziyan nodded, Wei Butler is reliable in his work.

While waiting for someone, Jiang Ziyan asked Li Bowen again, "How did Master Si Ye find Changlin?"

This Li Bowen didn't hide it, and told the matter in full detail.

It turned out that this incident was also a coincidence, as Chang Lin's appearance grew wider and wider, gradually resembling Li Bowen's appearance when he was young.One day when he happened to see him on the street, Li Bowen became suspicious and sent someone to inquire.

When he learned that Changlin followed Jiang Ziyan from Linzhou to the capital, he became even more suspicious, so he sent people to Linzhou to investigate. Changlin is Yuniang's son.

Calculating the time of Changlin's birth, isn't it because Yuniang was pregnant with his child?

After Lin Bowen came to the capital, he became a Jinshi, climbed up to the daughter of Doctor Guanglu, a third-rank official, and became his son-in-law.

However, all these years after marriage, both his wife and Na's concubine gave birth to daughters, and it was a hurdle in his heart that he had not been able to give birth to a son.

It's also God's eyes to see that he can meet his own son under such circumstances, Li Bowen thinks.This is God's gift to him.

After inquiring about the matter clearly, he came to Jiang Ziyan's house with a gift.

Jiang Ziyan felt very contemptuous after hearing this, isn't this a replica of Chen Shimei?Although he and Yuniang were not married, but he made her pregnant, which has already created the fact of husband and wife, but he left his wife far away and abandoned his wife. He didn't go back to see her once in so many years, and he still has the face to recognize his son.

Jiang Ziyan once again lamented this man's shamelessness, and he is also the director of the Imperial College, so this is also worthy of being a teacher?

After a while, Chang Lin came back, and the person who invited him told him something about the situation on the way, even Chang Lin wondered, how could someone pretend to be his father?

After waiting in the main hall, Chang Lin looked at the man sitting opposite Jiang Ziyan.

He has an impression of this person, and he came to strike up a conversation with him not long ago, and he is very warm to him.

At that time, he was still wondering why the other party cared about him so enthusiastically. So this person was his father?

Changlin didn't say a word when he saw Li Bowen, and stared straight at him.

When Li Bowen saw him very excited, he stood up from the chair and walked over, putting his hands on his shoulders, looking like a loving father, and even shed a few tears, saying sadly: "Son, dad finally found you!"

It's as if I've been looking for him for a long time.

In fact, Li Bowen did look for Changlin for half a year, and he only made a move half a year ago to get his son back.

He actually didn't know whether Yuniang gave birth to a boy or a girl, but the people sent to Linzhou came back and said that Yuniang gave birth to a son, so he started looking for it.

He searched a lot in Linzhou but couldn't find it, but unexpectedly met him in the capital by chance.It's completely impossible to find a place to go through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it.

Seeing that Changlin didn't speak, Jiang Ziyan introduced: "Changlin, this is Mr. Li Bowen, Secretary of the Imperial Academy."

Chang Lin said: "I'm afraid Li Siye has admitted the wrong person. I don't have a Siye father. And my mother said that my father died a long time ago."

Seeing what Changlin said, because his son didn't believe him, Li Bowen took out the jade pendant and said, "Look, this is the token of love between me and your mother back then, and it's a pair with the one on your body. Should you trust me?"

But Chang Lin said: "It's just a jade pendant, such cheap things can be seen everywhere on the street, Sir Si Ye is not the way to deceive people, right?"

Li Bowen heard that this was an angry word, and he was very angry, but after thinking about it, he hadn't seen a father who suddenly appeared for many years, and his son might not be used to it, which is understandable.

He coaxed patiently: "Changlin, it's all my father's fault. In the past, it was my fault. As long as you go home with my father, my father will make up for you in the future."

Unexpectedly, he saw Chang Lin red eyes staring at him fiercely, his eyes were full of disgust, and said: "Master Si Ye has such a status, a villain can't afford it."

The son called him one after another, and Li Bowen felt very alienated. Sure enough, he hadn't been raised by his side since he was a child, and he might be a white-eyed wolf in the future.

He said angrily: "My great Wei Xianglai values ​​filial piety, is that how you talk to your father?"

"My father?" Changlin looked at him sarcastically, "You are so thick-skinned, you rush to lick your face to be someone else's father, and you don't even ask others if they want to!"

"You! I think you are an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf!"

"That's really thanks to Mr. Si Ye for your praise."

Li Bowen was so angry that his whole body was trembling. He didn't expect that coming to recognize relatives today was not at all what he had imagined.

I thought that now that I am a dignified sixth-rank manager, my son should admire and envy him when he sees him, and he should be eager to go home with him immediately. After all, only by going home with him can he have a better future.

But I didn't expect to be ridiculed by him, it seemed like he was a joke.

He endured it, calmed down his mind, and said: "I don't think I heard you say these words today, when you figure it out someday, come to Siye Mansion to find me."

Li Bowen left after saying this.

After he left, Jiang Ziyan walked up to Chang Lin and patted him on the shoulder.

Chang Lin's shoulders trembled and he seemed to be crying sadly.

It's not that he didn't have fantasies about his father before, but since his mother passed away, all he has left in his heart is hatred for his biological father.

Seeing him today, Changlin only felt that his face was even more hateful, his mother's miserable life was caused by this person.
