Being a Lady of an Influential Family: 42、Ms. Zhuo’s Extra Story: Shaohua is Full of Love (End)
A month later, the Sheng family, who had long since sunset, finally faced the fate of being destroyed.
In the new round of big changes, Mr. Shanda stood on the wrong team and was about to be sent to the guillotine. To redeem his life, at least 500,000 taels are needed. However, the second son of the Sheng family has lost half of the Sheng family's property. At the same time, several families who had had a holiday with the Sheng family suddenly fell into the ground and launched an attack on the Sheng family.
The remaining property of the Sheng family has also been exhausted. The end of the Sheng family will be living on the streets, one son is decapitated, and the other becomes a gambler.
It was at this time that Zhuo Lin reappeared in the Sheng family. Looking at the old and haggard appearance of the graceful and dignified Mrs. Sheng, Zhuo Lin's seemingly stiff face finally showed a smile.
"It's you?! Did you find someone to deal with the Sheng family?!" Mrs. Sheng grabbed Zhuo Lin's sleeve and tugged frantically, "You bastard! You want to kill your eldest brother! You want to kill the Sheng family! !”
Zhuolin smiled and looked at Madam Sheng, who was madly in front of her, and then looked at her father, who was lying on the bed, unable to get up.
"Mother, do you feel pain when you see my eldest brother dying?"
Mrs. Sheng's eyes were red, "Nie Zha! I wish I would strangle you as soon as I came down!"
Zhuolin said: "Yes, you didn't strangle me, so you killed my son."
Mrs. Sheng's face changed when she heard the words, and her body trembled, "What are you talking about? I don't understand!"
Zhuolin said: "Mother, I haven't completely fainted yet. It's a pity, why didn't you kill me together?"
Mrs. Sheng gritted her teeth and said nothing, Zhuo Lin said softly: "You didn't kill me, now it's up to someone else to die. Mother, I only want my elder brother to lose his life for my son, this is what you earned ."
"You you" Mrs. Sheng staggered back a few steps, looking at Zhuo Lin's eyes full of horror.
This feeling is even more terrifying than the last time Zhuo Lin threatened her with a gun. She felt that the daughter who was smiling and talking to her had gone crazy.
"Lin Lin'er" Mr. Sheng, who was lying on the bed, struggled hard to reach out to Zhuo Lin.
Zhuolin looked at Master Sheng calmly, "Father, what do you want to say?"
Master Sheng's lips trembled, "Lin'er is, your big brother. When you were young, he hugged you and carried you on his back. He also hurt you, you two are brothers and sisters."
Zhuolin said coldly: "His mother killed my son, either she died or her son died!"
"I'm your mother!!" Mrs. Sheng's sharp voice echoed in the room, "You unfilial daughter, you actually want to kill your mother!! You're a dead thing going to hell" Zhuo Lin coldly She pushed aside Mrs. Sheng who wanted to beat her, "Don't worry, even if I go to hell, you will definitely accompany me."
Master Sheng finally sat up with all his might, and shouted with all his strength, "Lin'er!"
"I beg you, let's just forget about it. Let go of your elder brother, let go of the Sheng family."
Zhuolin didn't answer, Master Sheng said, "Do you want Dad to kneel down and beg you?"
The door to the room was pushed open from the outside, and the Sheng family knelt on the ground in the small courtyard.
At a glance, Zhuo Lin saw two sisters-in-law, several nephews and nieces, and even several concubines of the Sheng family and servants who had taken care of Zhuo Lin since childhood. Children who are not yet sensible are sobbing and crying, they don't know why they are kneeling here. Some sensible children also rubbed their eyes and cried, looking at the door at a loss called aunt, grandfather and grandmother.
Master Sheng said tremblingly, "Lin'er, look at them, what should you do if you want them? Keke daddy didn't ask you anything, this time, I'll be my daddy begging you"
Seeing that Zhuo Lin was unmoved, Master Sheng struggled to get off the bed. Afraid that he would bring down Mrs. Sheng, she hurried over to help him, and said, "Master, don't beg her! I don't believe that she really dared to kill me!"
"Shut up!" Mr. Sheng gasped and scolded his wife. He had a weak personality and never said harsh words to his wife in his life. At this time, he was obviously being pushed to the extreme.
Master Sheng finally stood up leaning on his wife, watching Zhuo Lin, who was standing aside, really knelt down with a thud.
"Master?!"
"Dad?!"
"Grandfather!!"
In the room, in the yard, an exclamation sounded.
"Lin Er, Dad please, cough, do you really want Dad to die?"
Zo Lin looked at the man kneeling in front of her like a withered shape, and she only felt ridiculous, pitiful and sad in her heart.
This is her biological father, but he never thought of protecting her. In such a patriarchal society, he allowed his wife to arrange his daughter without daring to object in the slightest. To be his wife may be very happy, but to be his daughter can only be full of sorrow.
Now, he is about to die, and he has to use himself to blackmail his daughter to protect his wife.
Compared with him, Fu Zhenglongxiao and others should almost commit suicide in shame.
But at this moment, she hated him so much!
"Arlene!" Sheng Zhuoyan rushed in from the outside, and was startled when she saw the situation in the room, "Father, mother, you are here" hurried over to help Mr. Sheng up.
Seeing the return of the eldest daughter, Mrs. Sheng seemed to have found a backer again, and while helping her husband up with Sheng Zhuoyan, she cursed Zhuo Lin for being unfilial.
Master Sheng still looks at Zhuo Lin, "Lin Er"
Zhuolin ignored her, and Master Sheng finally couldn't help but fell down again.
"Master!"
"Dad!"
The people kneeling in the yard couldn't bear it any longer and rushed in one after another.
The room was noisy and chaotic. Zhuo Lin stood aside and watched this scene coldly, suddenly feeling that it was all boring and ridiculous.
Watching everyone carry Master Sheng onto the bed and call the doctor, Zhuo Lin turned around and walked out.
Two days later, Sheng Zhuoyan brought money from the Wei family to rescue the eldest young master of the Sheng family. But the money that was exported and annexed was not coming back, and the Wei family was also very critical of Sheng Zhuoyan's behavior and was unwilling to support the Yue family. The Sheng family sold all the ancestral things and dismissed most of the servants, so that an empty ancestral house could be preserved.
After half a month, Mr. Sheng passed away.
On the same day, Zhuo Lin left the place where she was born and raised, she thought she would never come back in her life.
"Alin, are you blaming my sister?" Sheng Zhuoyan was the only one who came to see her off. She has been in poor health since giving birth, and her face has become even more haggard after being busy these days.
Zhuolin shook her head and said lightly: "This is my sister's choice, I have no right to blame you."
Sheng Zhuoyan sighed lightly, her beautiful face was full of melancholy, she reached out and hugged her sister's thin body, "Arlene, I know you hate it, but you can't do that. We are after all" looking at Zhuo Lin's expression , Sheng Zhuoyan swallowed the following words.
Zhuolin said: "Eldest sister, please tell the Sheng family. As long as I'm still alive, they'd better not leave here, let alone set foot in officialdom. Next time, you won't have so much money to save your life. Sometimes, money It may not save lives."
"A Ling, you"
"I'm leaving." Zhuo Lin didn't want to hear what she said, and said calmly, "Big sister, take care."
Sheng Zhuoyan can only nod her head, "You also take care."
Zhuolin turned around and wanted to leave, but after thinking about it suddenly, she turned around and asked, "Big sister, do you really hate it?"
Sheng Zhuoyan was startled, and she didn't say a word until Zhuo Lin boarded the boat.
After returning to the north, Zhuo Lin did not go to the capital, but went directly to the four northern provinces. During that time, she was very decadent and confused.
The lofty aspirations and good expectations for the future life seemed to have collapsed long ago. After leaving her hometown, she once didn't even know why she was still alive.
What does it have to do with her, whether it's a golden horse or a change of dynasty?
She just lives in a small yard not far from Long's house, and sees no one except her aunt and cousin-in-law every day.
If one day Long Xiao broke in to wake her up, Zhuo Lin felt that maybe she would have been like this until she died.
Long Xiao just came back from out of town. He was still wearing an iron-grey uniform and looked a little dusty.
Without a few months, Long Xiao seems to have changed a lot. He became more calm and fierce, with undisguised suffocation in the corners of his brows and eyes, Zhuo Lin knew that he had just returned from the battlefield.
Now Long Xiao can be regarded as a real tyrant. Taking advantage of this period of chaos, he already has his own troops and forces, and there is no one above him who can control him.
Young talents and Yi Fang are naturally different.
"You plan to continue like this forever?" Long Xiao sat in the chair, looking at the somewhat small room and the rudimentary furnishings in the room, and finally his eyes fell on Zhuo Lin.
Zhuolin poured a glass of white water on the table in front of him, and said lightly, "I'm fine now, but you just came back, right? What are you doing here without going back to see my aunt and sister-in-law first?" Before she had time to change her clothes, Zhuo Lin could naturally see that he might have come directly before returning home.
Long Xiao raised his eyebrows and said, "I just had a fight with Fu Zheng, and I guess you didn't read the newspaper."
Zhuolin was startled, she really didn't look at it.
Suddenly when she heard the name Fu Zheng, she was in a trance for a moment. The name seemed to be far away from her, and it was vaguely unfamiliar.
Seeing that Zhuo Lin didn't speak, Long Xiao smiled and said, "Fu Zheng and Wang Derui had a falling out."
"Then?" Zhuo Lin was not surprised, Wang Derui was not tolerant, and Fu Zheng was not in the pool. Sooner or later, the two would fall out.
Long Xiao smiled and said, "Wang Derui asked me to help destroy Cai Fu Zheng. We fought a battle first. Then" Long Xiao smiled meaningfully, "We joined forces to kill Wang Derui."
Zhuolin said: "Raising tigers is a problem."
"Are you talking about me or Fu Zheng?" Long Xiao asked curiously.
Zhuo Lin looked at him and said nothing, Long Xiao said with satisfaction, "It's true that raising a tiger is a problem, but even if I don't help Fu Zheng, I can kill Wang Derui, but if I help Wang Derui, I may lose both sides with him. , Fu Zheng is very ruthless now. The four northern provinces are not very peaceful." He does not fully control the four northern provinces now, and he does not want to interfere with the affairs of the customs. The reason why he promised Wang Derui is just profitable.
After saying this, Long Xiao looked at Zhuo Lin and said, "He asked me about you."
Zhuolin's expression changed slightly and she said solemnly, "Ask me what to do?"
Long Xiao said: "You sent someone to send all his things back, and then disappeared without a trace. He is probably afraid that something will happen to you. However, this time he met a lot. "Long Xiao and Fu Zheng don't have a very good friendship, but they are still familiar with each other. Naturally, you can see the changes in Fu Zheng these days.
Zhuolin said: "I'm not interested in these."
Long Xiao nodded and said: "He probably knew that you were in the northeast, and told me that you don't have to hide from him, he won't bother you in the future." Speaking of this, Long Xiao rubbed the teacup and smiled: " He now sits in the three provinces and has hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses. He has a beautiful wife and concubine, and has both children.
It is said that Mr. Feng was shocked to give birth to a son early, and he was deeply loved by the old man and the old lady of the Fu family.
Although Fu Zheng didn't take Feng Shi seriously, and the old lady of the Fu family also made it clear that she didn't like the Feng family, but for the sake of her grandson, the old lady of the Fu family forced Fu Zheng to marry the Feng family.
"Alin, it's been almost a year, and you should come out too." He also felt a little guilty about Zhuo Lin Long Xiao. No one thought the turmoil in the capital would be so sudden. He couldn't care about Zhuo Lin at all. here. By the time he finally found time to go home, it was already the third day of Zhuo Lin's delivery. If he had sent Zhuo Lin back to the four northern provinces earlier, this would not have happened.
Zhuolin smiled lightly, "I know, cousin, don't worry I'm fine."
Long Xiao sighed helplessly, "A-Ling, do you remember what you said? Are you really going to die of old age in this small yard? You're doing this except for those who don't like you. What's the use of schadenfreude? Things are different now, Arlene, and I need your help."
"What can I do for you?"
Long Xiao said: "I just took over these sites, and now there are still many forces in the four northern provinces. I'm afraid I won't have time to take care of the local people's livelihood for a while. Alin, do you want to try?"
Zero Lin was a little surprised, "You asked me to govern the place?"
Long Xiao asked: "What? Don't you dare? You really have no experience, don't be afraid, not now."
Zhuolin didn't speak, she actually understood that Long Xiao didn't really need her help, he just wanted to find something for her to do.
However, such a decision is not something that Long Xiao would make.
Seeing Zhuo Lin staring at her, Long Xiao didn't hide it, she smiled and said, "It was someone else's suggestion, he said you can do it well."
"Who?" Zorin asked.
Long Xiao said: "Prince An."
Zhuolin was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized that Long Xiao was talking about Xiao Zhu.
During the sudden mutiny a year ago, Zhuo Lin lost her child and Xiao Zhu lost her throne and freedom.
Long Xiao knew that Zhuo Lin had a good relationship with Xiao Zhu, "I went to the capital to visit Prince An before I came back. He seemed to be doing well, and he asked about you specifically. This is his suggestion. Arlene, you How are you thinking?"
Joelin asked, "Do you really believe I can do it well?"
Long Xiao smiled and said, "The question is not whether I believe it, but whether you want it?"
Zhuolin pondered for a moment and said, "I need time to think about it."
"Of course." Long Xiao didn't force her, and said, "You should think about it slowly, don't be in a hurry."
Zhuolin looked at the man sitting in front of him in Zhengchen and said softly, "Cousin, thank you."
Long Xiao smiled and said, "If you really want to thank me, cheer up. Aline, I don't believe that a person who can persevere all the way to the present can be defeated by these things."
"I see." Zhuo Lin said.
Long Xiao put down the teacup and left.
Three days later, Zhuo Lin walked out of the courtyard and into the study of Long Xiao of the Long family.
Come out from the study, Zhuo Lin officially became Long Xiao's military office assistant.
Three years later, she served as an administrative official in a certain place under the jurisdiction of Yunzhou, becoming the first official female official in the four northern provinces. A few years later, he took office as the vice-minister of Yunzhou, which opened the way for Yunzhou to go from the poorest and most backward places in the four northern provinces to the most prosperous places.
During her tenure as the vice-minister of Yunzhou, Zhuo Lin sent away several governors. She was called "the vice-minister of iron and the governor of flowing water", but everyone knew that she was the real ruler of Yunzhou.
In the 28th year of Emperor Anxia, Zhuo Lin was promoted to the governor of Yunzhou.
In 29 years, he joined the capital as the Deputy Minister of Finance.
In the first year of Daxia, he took office as Minister of Finance.
In the sixth year of Daxia, he took office as the second president of Daxia.
