Rich and powerful

In fact, Sun Xuemeng was also selfish, otherwise, it would not be so easy for Qiu Yi to persuade her.

But Sun Xing and his son were dumbfounded after hearing this, and were shocked by Lin Yun's thoughts.

Sun Xing stood up directly on the wicker chair, and asked, "He...does he really have surplus food?"

When he got the news from Qiu Yi, he still didn't believe it at all, but after hearing what his niece said, Sun Xing finally understood why Lin Yun, a small sixth-rank official, could make the governor choose to bow his head.

Sun Xuemeng nodded solemnly, and said: "That's right! I went to Niubei Village with Mr. Ma in the afternoon and saw them transporting grain with my own eyes! Second Uncle, this is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for my Sun family! Since even Mr. Fu Yin participated , that must be sure!"

Sun Xing raised his head and laughed loudly: "Okay, it seems that God is helping my Sun family this time!" Then, he turned his head to look at his son, and ordered: "Stinky boy, go to Beijing quickly and settle this matter. Tell your uncle, let him get ready over there and get ready!"

It turned out that Sun Xuemeng's father had been working as a doctor in Baicaotang in the capital, and because of his special status, the Sun family had the current family business in Yucheng.

Therefore, any action of the Sun family cannot be done without his help.

Sun Hongtao quickly took orders. At such a critical moment, he didn't dare to lose the chain and turned around to leave.

At this time, Sun Xuemeng continued: "Second Uncle, Yuanwai Lin may want to borrow the business of our Baicaotang in the future. My niece agreed to him without your consent. You don't blame me, do you?"

"Haha! Of course not, I don't worry about what you do, girl! Besides, you performed very well this time. It seems that my Sun family is really going to be lucky this time! If we can really win Haocheng, then the power of our Sun family It will definitely be promoted!"

"But... is there really no problem with my father?"

Although Sun Xuemeng was excited, she was still somewhat uncertain.

"Silly girl, you underestimate your father's power in Baicaotang in the capital! You only need to do one thing right now, and that is to climb up to this member of the forest! Don't you like him? If you can marry the member of the forest, It will be hard for the Sun family not to develop in the future!"

As soon as this matter was mentioned, Sun Xuemeng showed a trace of sadness in his eyes, and said discouragedly: "Second Uncle, don't mention this matter! Lin Yuanwai is ambitious, so he doesn't look down on me at all! I don't want to bring shame on myself!"

Sun Xuemeng is a proud girl with countless suitors on weekdays. This time, she was moved so hard that she acted so proactively, but she suffered a heavy blow. Coupled with Lin Yun's words just now, she also completely gave up. .

Sun Xing showed an intriguing smile, patted her thin shoulders, and said, "Silly girl, haven't you always been brave? Why did you retreat after experiencing such a setback? It is because of Lin Yuanwai's excellence that he looks down on her." you!"

"Besides, the second uncle has already asked someone to investigate Lin Yuanwai. He is not very powerful in the Lin family, and he was born as a concubine. The three wives he married are all guilty. Their conditions can capture Lin Yuanwai's heart. , you girl is much better than them!"

Sun Xing really wanted to facilitate the good things between his niece and Lin Yun, and only through marriage can the Sun family's interests be maximized.

In fact, it is not that the Sun family does not want to be an official, but is bound by the laws of the Daduan Dynasty, because practitioners of medicine are not allowed to engage in politics.

For example, Sun Xingben has superb medical skills. If he becomes an official, relying on this skill, he will definitely hand over a group of officials.

However, the imperial court made repeated orders and repeated orders, and officials were never allowed to form cliques for private purposes. This is a taboo.

Therefore, no matter how ambitious the Sun family is, they cannot change this fact.

But if he can climb up to Lin Yun, who has unlimited potential, then the Sun family will really be able to step into official careers in the future.

Sun Xuemeng understood what Second Uncle meant, took a deep breath, and said, "Second Uncle is right! I can persevere, but is our Sun family really going to bet all our treasures on Lin Yun? According to Qiu Yi, There is a great possibility that Lin Yun will resist the Lin family's rule in Fengyang County in the future, it would be fine if he succeeds, but what if he fails?"

Both their uncle and nephew are very smart, but they are so utilitarian that it is unrealistic to want to marry Lin Yun.

It's just that the bystanders are obsessed with the authorities, or they don't take it seriously when they think about it.

"It doesn't matter! Only you and I know about this decision, so we have plenty of time to observe in secret. What about you... don't push too much in the future, just show yourself first, don't let Yuanwai hate you!"

"This person's heart is full of flesh, and the best feelings are grown in long-term company! So, you girl have to work harder!"

Sun Xing is like a fine old fox at the moment, after all, he is a man of his age. To put it bluntly, he has traveled more salt than Sun Xuemeng has eaten.

Sun Xuemeng suddenly realized, smiled sweetly, and said, "Second Uncle is really my good teacher and helpful friend! Hearing what you said, I feel much more comfortable in my heart! I will continue to work hard!"

Only then did Sun Xing show a satisfied smile.

"By the way! Second Uncle, since we want to cooperate with Yuanwai Lin, what should we do with Qiu Yi? This kid is gaining power now, so he is not easy to mess with! I heard that he has been excluding dissidents in the Yucheng Mansion recently. Elder sister Yi's father has already been ostracized! He won't take revenge on us, will he?"

Only then did Sun Xuemeng come to his senses, and asked quickly.

"Hmph, it's good for him to take revenge! This way we will have the opportunity to ask Lin Yuanwai to take action! It will also give us a chance to get closer to Lin Yuanwai!"

How scheming Sun Xing was, how could he not have thought of this problem.

This time, it can be regarded as showing the advantages of the Sun family, because there is no official position in Yucheng, so it is the family that is least afraid of Qiu Yi.

Coupled with the existence of Baicaotang, his grandson's family also has a lot of influence in Yucheng, even if Qiu Yi really wants to take his grandson's family into a knife, he has to weigh it.

What's more, Qiu Yi is only impulsive, but not stupid.

If the Sun family suddenly ignored him, that fool would be able to see the way behind it.

Only then did Sun Xuemeng feel completely at ease, and leaned forward and said, "Second Uncle is still considerate, Xuemeng will go down to rest first!"

……

at the same time.

In a luxurious mansion in the south of Yucheng, Qiu Yi was throwing a big banquet at home.

Almost all the chief officials in Yucheng were invited, and Ma Ji was among them.

However, he was very embarrassed at the moment.

Among the officials present, at least half of them chose to join Qiu Yi.

After all, he became the general manager of Yucheng soldiers and horses at a young age.

Although in peacetime, the power of military generals is not as great as that of civilian officials, the army controlled by Qiu Yi is subordinate to the imperial court.

All the officials naturally wanted to save face.

Moreover, Qiu Guangri has always held great power and controlled the entire Yucheng, but this time he is willing to delegate power to his son, making the officials secretly guess that it must be Qiu Guangri's deliberate intention to let his son take over.
