Chapter 29 Extremely Poor

The anger in Yin Jiajin's heart gradually subsided, and she clenched her fists tightly, with a look of determination flashing in her eyes.

Pursing her lips, Yin Jiajin made up her mind to follow Lin Xiaofeng.

...

The road ahead was winding and winding, and Lin Xiaofeng, Lin Taohua and others were walking hard on it.

Lin Xiaofeng's face was full of anger, and he cursed loudly: "These bearers are really a bunch of scoundrels! They carried me here and then left, making me walk back! Really! From now on, I will only pay them half the salary! You guys Do you understand?"

Xie Hongxin responded: "I understand, sir."

He turned back and said, "Sir, she's following."

Lin Xiaofeng was stunned for a moment, then looked back and saw Yin Jiajin walking over with difficulty.

Her steps were heavy and her breathing was rapid.

Lin Xiaofeng frowned: "Humph... Why are you still chasing me! Why is she so pestering? Let's go! Run!"

After saying that, Lin Xiaofeng and the others quickened their pace.

Yin Jiajin looked at their backs with mixed feelings in her heart. She wanted to raise her hand and call them, but saw that they had gone away.

Yin Jiajin stood there, the feeling in her heart was like an overturned condiment bottle, sour, bitter, spicy and salty all rushing into her heart.

Suddenly, she spurted out a mouthful of blood, and her body collapsed limply on the street. There was no one around, she was the only one lying there alone, extremely desolate...

···········································

In the backyard of the county government office, Lin Xiaofeng's face was as calm as ink, and his eyes fell on Yin Jiajin. Yin Jiajin was still unconscious, her chest was stained with blood, and her condition seemed to be more serious than before.

"Xie Hongxin! Are you a pig? This woman came to rely on me! You still carried her back!" Lin Xiaofeng cursed angrily.

Xie Hongxin stammered in reply: "Sir, she said she has something to tell you. Maybe she can get some clues when she brings it back..."

Lin Xiaofeng shook his head helplessly: "What can she say at this time? Send her to the hospital as soon as possible, and send her away as soon as she is cured!"

He was about to order Xie Hongxin to send Yin Jiajin to the hospital quickly.

Unexpectedly, Yin Jiajin suddenly grabbed Lin Xiaofeng's trousers tightly and cried in her sleep: "Dad...Mom... Jiajin misses you so much..." ···”

When Taohua saw this scene, she looked sad: "Sir, can you keep her? She has no parents and is helpless. Is it really okay to let her leave alone?"

Lin Xiaofeng knelt down and looked at Yin Jiajin. She was still mumbling, and everyone who listened felt very sad.

Lin Xiaofeng touched her chin and thought: This woman... is very strange, her sleep talking logic is very clear!

"Little Taohua, go and tickle her soles!" Lin Xiaofeng said.

Taohua rolled her eyes: "Why? Sir, are you afraid that she will do evil to me?"

Lin Xiaofeng said firmly: "Just be careful! I don't feel sorry for her!"

Taohua looked disdainfully and asked in a low voice: "Then do you want to keep her?"

Lin Xiaofeng looked at Yin Jiajin again. Although she was unconscious, she was still as beautiful as a flower, and he did have the urge to keep her in his heart. But Zheng Shimin's matter was still bothering him.

He hesitated for a long time: "Forget it! Send him to the hospital quickly! If the disease cannot be cured, we will have to take a sick person to the capital tomorrow. How troublesome it will be!"

He ordered Xie Hongxin to take Yin Jiajin away quickly. But Yin Jiajin still held on to his trousers. Lin Xiaofeng tried to pry her fingers apart, but no matter what he did, she wouldn't let go. The three people looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

Xie Hongxin looked at this situation and walked over: "Sir! Let me come!"

"You come? Are you afraid you can just break her fingers off?" Lin Xiaofeng asked.

Xie Hongxin chuckled: "Sir, don't underestimate me! I'm very strong!"

Lin Xiaofeng shook his head: "You'd better save your energy!"

In desperation, Lin Xiaofeng knelt down and gently covered Yin Jiajin's mouth and nose with one hand...

After a while, Yin Jiajin started coughing because of difficulty breathing, and slowly loosened her hands.

Xie Hongxin clapped his hands and praised: "Brilliant! You are so brilliant!"

"You still need to learn more! Compared with me, an adult, you are still very young!" Lin Xiaofeng teased.

Lin Taohua looked at the two men who were complimenting each other with a speechless face. It was really difficult to get along with these men...

·······

Yin Jiajin felt as if an invisible hand had pinched her throat, and she woke up suddenly, her chest rising and falling as if a strong wind was raging in it.

She lowered her head, her face was as red as fire, and tears were shining in her eyes, as if a crystal ball was about to break at any time.

What a humiliation!

In just half a day, she had experienced several humiliations.

Being driven away, disgusted, and even having their mouth and nose covered...

Lin Xiaofeng, this hatred is irreconcilable! And Xie Hongxin!

There was a slight struggle in Yin Jiajin's eyes, like a clear stream shining in the sun.

Finally, tears blurred her vision.

She fell weakly to the ground, her tears falling quietly like June rain: "Mr. Lin, please save the life of a civilian girl again! A civilian girl has no way to repay her, she can only work like a cow or a horse!"

Her voice was filled with endless sincerity and sadness, like fallen leaves in autumn, poignant and helpless.

"Being able to serve you, the two elders in the family may rest in peace in heaven. Please take them in!" Yin Jiajin raised her white jade-like head and looked at Lin Xiaofeng with tearful eyes. Her eyes were full of pleading and expectation, as if she was looking for a ray of warm sunshine on a cold winter night.

Lin Xiaofeng shook her head gently, unmoved, and said calmly: "No, if Miss Yin wants to repay her, she can just find a job in Yangqu County."

Yin Jiajin was stunned, she didn't expect Lin Xiaofeng to say this. She originally thought that Lin Xiaofeng would take the opportunity to speak loudly, but she didn't expect that he would brush it off in an understatement. She couldn't help but feel a little grateful, but more of a doubt.

The corners of Lin Xiaofeng's mouth turned up slightly, as if he was smiling, but his eyes were very cold. He continued: "Taxation in Yangqu County is a big deal. If you are willing to repay, just go to work and pay taxes!"

Yin Jiajin frowned slightly, feeling somewhat reluctant.

"Of course, there are still many trivial matters that need to be dealt with in the county government. If you want, you can also work there." Lin Xiaofeng's tone was a little impatient, as if these things were not important to him.

"As for the salary," Lin Xiaofeng paused, as if thinking about how to say it, "I will pay it monthly." Yin Jiajin was stunned, not expecting Lin Xiaofeng to say this. Pay monthly salary? Monthly payment?

Lin Xiaofeng seemed to see Yin Jiajin's doubts and continued: "I will determine the salary based on your performance and workload. If you do well, I will not treat you badly."

Yin Jiajin couldn't help but feel a little confused. She didn't know what Lin Xiaofeng was thinking.

You want me, a beautiful young girl like me, to work in the county government?

She asked with some reluctance: "My lord, is that all? Don't you need the daughter of the people to do more?"

Lin Xiaofeng shook his head gently and said, "No, don't worry, your money will definitely be indispensable!"

"As for household registration and other matters, I can help you get it done for free!"

Lin Xiaofeng emphasized the word "free" and wanted to show that he had made a big profit.

When Yin Jiajin heard this, she thought it was sarcasm.

money! money! money!

Were you desperately poor in your previous life?

Why do you talk about money?

If Lin Xiaofeng heard it, he would probably say directly, ‘You guessed it right! ’

Yin Jiajin was furious. If it wasn't for revenge, she would really want to stay away from him. But in order to avenge her parents, she had to swallow her anger and stay with him temporarily.

Thinking of this, Yin Jiajin said in a sad voice: "I will never forget your kindness. If I can't serve you, my parents' souls may not rest in peace."

Her voice was sad and sad, like fallen leaves blowing in the autumn wind, or like a wounded deer wailing in the cold wind.

"Don't worry, your parents should have been reincarnated." Lin Xiaofeng remained unmoved.

When Yin Jiajin heard this, she felt as if she had been struck by lightning.

She was angry, desperate, and almost yelling.

But she suppressed the anger in her heart and bit the tip of her tongue, her mouth filled with the taste of blood.

She gritted her teeth and told herself: Hold it! If you fail today, all your previous efforts will be in vain!

So she became cruel and knelt in front of Lin Xiaofeng, kowtowing to the ground with a bang: "Please, sir... take me in..."

Her voice was sad and desperate, like a wailing deer.

As soon as he kowtowed to the ground, the whole universe seemed to be in silence.

Lin Xiaofeng and the other two people were stunned and shocked by Yin Jiajin's determined and tragic actions.

Lin Xiaofeng had complicated emotions in her heart: What virtues and abilities do I have? How could he let such a beautiful woman treat him like this?

Lin Taohua felt pity when she saw Yin Jiajin like this.

She and Yin Jiajin were of the same age and had the same problem, but their parents died early.

She took Lin Xiaofeng's arm and said softly: "Sir, just take her in. I'm very busy every day. It's good to have one more person."

Lin Xiaofeng thought: Maybe I am too hasty? Taohua has had a hard time in the past few years, and she has been handling almost all matters in Yangqu County alone. I haven't asked anything about it in the past few years, it's all been handled by Taohua. This girl has no entertainment activities and no company. She really owes her a lot. Maybe Taohua just wants a companion?

With his thoughts settled, Lin Xiaofeng looked at Yin Jiajin and said, "Miss Yin, you want to repay me. There is nothing I can do."

There was majesty and indifference in his tone, which seemed to be an irresistible order, "In this case, you will become Taohua's maid from now on. You need to serve her with all your heart, and don't give up halfway. Do whatever she asks you to do!"

"As for the salary, it's only three taels of silver per month, and the previous medical expenses will also be deducted from it. Are you willing?"

A maid’s maid? What does it mean?

And that damn medical fee, isn’t it said that it can be waived?

Yin Jiajing's fists were clenched tightly, and her nails dug deeply into her flesh. But she had no tears at this moment. All the tears had dried up long ago, leaving only soft cries and weak struggles.

"Why are you crying? Do you agree or not?" Lin Xiaofeng looked at her and asked expressionlessly.

"I...I'm happy, I promise! I promise!" Yin Jiajing replied in tears.

After saying this, she suddenly fainted and fell to the ground.

Lin Xiaofeng frowned: "I was so happy that I actually passed out...forget it!"

"Xiao Taohua, she will be left to you from now on. Everything is at your discretion. You first help her find a room to settle down, and then find a doctor."

"I just don't know if I can take her to the capital in this situation."

Next, Lin Xiaofeng ordered Xie Hongxin to summon all officials in the county.

Sitting in the lobby of the county government office, Lin Xiaofeng faced the county officials, large and small, and his words seemed a bit heavy.

"Colleagues, you should already know that I am going to the capital for a trip that may take several months, or even longer. During this period, the affairs of Yangqu County must be managed by everyone." His voice was not loud. , but full of power, every word seems to weigh as much as a thousand pounds.

"Everyone in the government office must stick to their posts. As for the common people, as long as they do not break the law, we should not interfere too much. They will find their own way to make a living. But if someone takes advantage of their power to bully others and occupy civilian women, Once it is found out, he will be severely punished, with twenty sticks and expelled from Yangqu!" His words were as sharp as a knife and showed no mercy.

"As for helping the needy and rescuing the poor, I want to tell you, treat by doing nothing and don't interfere too much!"

"People from the Criminal Investigation Department, listen! Those who break the law shall be dealt with in accordance with the law. They cannot be lynched or tortured to extract confessions. Of course, if the crime committed is a heinous crime that is outraged by both humans and gods, they will be whipped when necessary and beheaded when necessary. When I am not around, , you decide what to do yourself! The premise is that you cannot wrongly accuse a good person!"

"When I come back, I will check the archives and records." There was an unquestionable majesty in his words.

"People from the Public Security Department should pay attention! Pay attention to outsiders when patrolling, and record them in time. Unless it is an extreme situation, do not disturb the people." His eyes swept over everyone one by one, and every word seemed to be hammered. their hearts.

The atmosphere in the entire lobby became solemn, and all the officials lowered their heads and listened silently to Lin Xiaofeng's instructions. Their faces were more or less uneasy and worried.

After all, once Lin Xiaofeng leaves, the stability of Yangqu County will depend on them.

But they also knew that although Lin Xiaofeng's words were harsh, they were all for their own good. They couldn't live up to his expectations.
