Chapter 144 Satisfaction
After going to court, Lin Pingkang returned to the mansion.

The news of his dismissal has already been sent back.

The faces of everyone in Shou'an Hall were a bit ugly.

"Brother, you are too careless."

The second lady looked at Lin Pingkang who walked in slowly, and said dissatisfied in a low voice.

"Shut up if you don't know how to speak!" Da Furen said angrily.

Then he got up and walked to Lin Pingkang's side and said:

"Master, don't be discouraged. Dismissal is only temporary."

"With the master's ability, he will be able to return to the officialdom in a short time." The eldest lady comforted.

Then he brought a cup of hot tea, put it in Lin Pingkang's hand and said:

"It's cold outside, sir, warm up quickly."

"Ah."

Lin Pingkang looked at the eldest lady with a little warmth on his face.

"Sihua is right." The old lady said, "It's not too late to clean up your hands first, and then talk about other things."

After the old lady finished speaking, she glanced at the second lady.

The second lady knew that she had offended the old lady, so she curled her lips and said nothing.

Seeing the harmonious appearance of the eldest lady and Lin Pingkangqinse, I felt even more uncomfortable.

The master has been showing her face since he returned home, and recently he is often not at home.

The second lady always felt that Lin Ping'an was hiding something from her.

"Mother, where's the second brother?" Seeing that Lin Ping'an was not there, Lin Pingkang asked.

"Where is the second child?" The old lady asked the second lady.

"I don't know either, the master left early in the morning." The second lady replied.

The old lady frowned upon hearing this.

"Didn't I ask you to restrain him a little bit? You know how to run outside after doing nothing in the mansion all day!" The old lady said dissatisfied.

"Mother, master, that's something I can control."

The second madam said aggrievedly: "I even pretended to have a stomachache twice."

"I was discovered later by the master and had a big fight with me. I don't dare to take care of him anymore."

The old lady knew her son's character well, and she also knew that she was somewhat difficult.

But still earnestly said:

"Second brother is stubborn, don't pay attention, I'm afraid he will cause trouble."

"Mother, you can't trust the master a little more, he is not such a person." The second lady persuaded the old lady in turn.

The second lady didn't feel that the old lady was partial, she just felt that her mother was too careful.

The master is not a child, he stayed in Jinzhou for three years and he was fine.

Not the confused type.

How did she know that when the second master went to Jinzhou to serve, the counselor Guang brought three of them.

The old lady sighed and said:
"That's all, children have their own blessings, and I don't want to worry about it anymore when I'm old."

"Mother, you should enjoy the family happiness."

The second lady yawned as she spoke, looking sleepy.

"Go and rest when you're tired, you have to take good care of your baby now," the old lady said.

"Yes, the daughter-in-law will retire first."

The second lady was indeed sleepy, so she held the maid's hand and left.

"Then I'm leaving too."

Seeing that Lin Pingkang had something to tell the old lady, the eldest lady withdrew wisely.

"Why did you suddenly ask about your second child today?"

The old lady asked when she saw that the old lady was leaving.

"My son has something to tell his mother." Lin Pingkang said seriously.

Seeing his expression, the old lady knew that what she was about to say might not be simple.

So all the maids and mothers-in-law retreated.

After the door was closed, the old lady asked solemnly:

"What you want to say has something to do with the second child?"

"Yes." Lin Pingkang said in a deep voice.

"But what happened to the second child?" The old lady stood up and asked anxiously.

Then he continued: "I said to send someone to watch him, but you won't let me."

"Second brother is already an adult, if people stare at him all the time, how can he be as majestic as his wife and children in the future." Lin Pingkang interrupted.

Then he sympathetically supported the old lady to sit down, and slowly said:

"Mother, I suspect that the matter of the relief food has something to do with the second brother."

Lin Pingkang directly expressed the suspicion in his heart.

"How could the second child have something to do with the disaster relief food?" The old lady couldn't believe it.

"Mother, don't be impatient." Lin Pingkang said, "My son is just suspicious."

"As for the disaster relief food, my son was thinking about it and couldn't figure out what went wrong."

On the way back home just now, Wei Yu pleaded guilty to his son.

Then he mentioned the second brother, saying that the food was brought to him by the second brother.

He was anxious and because he trusted his second brother.

So only two bags were randomly checked, and they were not checked carefully.

"You can't wrong the second child."

The old lady said: "The second child was worried about you yesterday, I saw that he was restless."

"Just let him go to the other courtyard and watch the servants carry the food. I was afraid that something might go wrong, so I let him watch."

"Is it really the second child!" The old lady still felt a little unbelievable.

"What is he doing this for?" the old lady murmured.

She still didn't want to believe that the second child really did this.

After all, he has no reason.

No matter how stupid he is, he deserves the consequences of this matter.

"It's just suspicion now." Lin Pingkang said.

"I told my mother that I also want to let my mother know."

"I may have to check on my second brother in the past two days. Mother, don't be angry with me because of this."

"Just check it out, check it out carefully." The old lady said in a deep voice.

She knew in her heart that this matter must be investigated thoroughly, if it was really the second child.

Then it means that the second child has taken refuge in the prime minister, and this matter has become serious.

"Yes."

Seeing that the old lady understood the seriousness of the matter, Lin Pingkang felt relieved.

At this time, in Hongxing Restaurant, Wu An enthusiastically welcomed Lin Pingan in.

"Master Lin, what a plan." Wu An praised with a smile.

Then he poured a glass of wine and put it in front of Lin Pingan.

"I just said that Master Lin is much smarter than Shangshu Lin."

"This time Lin Shangshu has fallen into Mr. Lin's trap."

What Wu An said was what Lin Pingan liked to hear.

Lin Pingan only felt that what Wu An said made sense.

He hasn't had a bright future all these years, but he has no chance.

When he followed the prime minister and was promoted by the prime minister, he didn't have to worry about getting promoted and getting rich.

The more Lin Pingan thought about it, the more he felt that he made the right decision.

Besides, if there is no him in this matter, the prime minister will find someone else to do it.

Instead of taking advantage of others, it is better to make him a younger brother.

"Master Wu is absurd." Lin Pingkang said, "I'm just lucky."

"Master Lin is too modest." Wu An said, "Drink this cup quickly and celebrate."

The wine glasses of the two collided, making a crisp sound of hitting the wall.

Lin Pingan's hearty laughter spread wantonly.

After so many years, he finally surpassed his eldest brother once!

"I wonder if the Prime Minister is satisfied with the result this time?" Lin Pingan put down the wine glass in his hand and asked softly.

"Master Lin will know if you are satisfied or not." Wu An looked at Lin Ping'an and said with a smile in his eyes.

"What does Mr. Wu mean by this?" Lin Pingan asked puzzled.

"This is not here." Wu An looked at him and said outside the door.

Lin Pingan also turned his head to look, and saw a black shadow printed on the hollowed-out door.

The black shadow was getting closer and closer, and someone was about to open the door and enter.
