Yu Bin and Wan Jie's personalities are too similar, even if it was her who suggested returning the jade pendant, she must have been unable to put her mind at ease. Her body is too weak, Lin Qingwan dare not gamble with her health.

  But this was an opportunity, a chance for her to shift her gaze away from Shang Mingjie.

  Lin Qingwan pushed Lin Yuhong aside, looked into her eyes and said: "Child, I didn't give up on Yu Ruyi because Ming Jie is hard to come by, so I'm willing to give him a chance. But there are still many people in this world like him, you're still young, we don't rush, slowly find, will eventually find a perfect one."

  Is there a perfect marriage in this world? Aunt was just comforting her.

  Lin Qingwan patted her head and said, "Go burn incense for your parents."

  There are some things she doesn't like to talk about with living people, but can confide in the dead. Saying them out loud always makes her feel a little better.

  Lin Yuhu got up and went to the small temple, halfway through, he couldn't help but turn around and take a look at his little sister-in-law.

  Lin Qingwan waved goodbye and smiled, letting her go with a sense of relief.

  Yingyan and Bihong hurriedly followed the young lady, while Bai Mei and Bai Feng exchanged a glance, hesitated for a moment, but still didn't go forward, standing far away to watch Lin Qingyuan.

  Lin Qingwan turned her head to gaze at the starry sky, and couldn't help but smile inwardly as she asked Lin Jiang, "Ah, talented scholar of Jiangnan, do you think there's someone suitable for Yuhai?"

  Hmm, maybe they can set their sights a bit further and go find them in various places around the world?

  Lin Jiang in heaven couldn't hear Lin Qingyuan's words in her heart, but he could understand the meaning expressed in her eyes.

  He couldn't help but lower his head in contemplation.

  If it weren't for her insistence on Ming Jie, I could actually consider other options.

  He turned his head towards Bai Weng, and before he could speak, Bai Weng immediately shook his head and said: "Upper Immortal, can't give you any hints, we're not in the same place now."

  "It's no use making a scene," said Bai Weng, hurrying to speak before he opened his mouth: "I don't know if Lin Niang can understand me, but those self-proclaimed smart people on the ground will definitely disagree with you. You should know that there is a war going on right now."

  The old man was already tearless, "and this matter is also closely related to you. You have changed a major historical event. If you hadn't died early, the heavenly way of that world would have definitely come to settle accounts with you. So let's just be honest and watch from heaven, don't create trouble anymore."

  Lin Jiang pursed his lips and sat back down reluctantly, "This battle was bound to happen anyway."

  "But the nature is different."

  Now, Da Liang's army has gathered at the border, and Bai Weng switched to another mirror, where two countries are at war.

  Moreover, Daliang's army offensive was swift and fierce. Even without using the Celestial Mirror to predict it, he could already foresee the outcome of this war.

  Moreover, on the other side of Nanyue, the Great Chu was also secretly taking action.

  This is completely different from the "first world" deduced by the Celestial Mirror.

  "The First Generation" is infinitely close to the historical inference, Bai Weng remembers very clearly that Nan Han and Da Liang will have war, not only that, but also Da Chu will take advantage of the situation to attack Da Liang, even the northern Liao State is eager to move.

  It can be said that the four sides of the Tai Liang are in a precarious situation, and the country's treasury is empty. In the end, although the Tai Liang managed to get through this disaster with difficulty, its national strength was severely damaged, and external enemies were not driven away, while internal struggles became more intense.

  But now Daliang's situation is completely different, why?

  Still because of Lin Jiang?

  His donation enriched the national treasury, but Emperor Xian of Liang was frugal himself and willing to spend on the people's livelihood. With this money, many water conservancy projects were built, so the two years of Da Liang were considered a bumper harvest.

  The generals and soldiers on the border have also increased their military preparations, at least when it comes to fighting, they don't have to worry about food and grass.

  The most crucial thing is that the Southern Han Dynasty was in internal turmoil, others may not know, but can Tianwang and Lin Jiang, who sit idly by all day, holding a mirror to observe everything, be unaware of it?

  The internal strife of Nanyue is also related to Lin Jiang.

  It's also the misfortune of the Southern Han imperial family. In "The First World", although the Southern Han imperial family was weak, they still had a certain right to speak, mainly because at that time their goals were consistent, which was to take over Jiangnan from the Great Liang.

  So the royal family and General Lyu Jing got along quite well.

  But they had differences in this life.

  Lü Jing had long set his sights on Jiangnan of the Great Liang, which was a land of fish and rice. Why could the Great Liang become the country with the greatest national strength when its treasury was so empty?

  Isn't it because it has the two major grain-producing areas of Jiangnan and Zhongyuan?

  If Nan Han could seize Jiangnan...

  Lü Jingguang thought about it and felt that his blood was boiling, so he had been planning to attack Daliang for several years, but the timing was not yet ripe, and he had never taken action.

  But many big things happened in the past few years, first the eldest prince died in battle, then there were frequent natural and man-made disasters, Lv Jing felt that this was the right time.

  Emperor Liu also thought so and agreed to Lü Jing's secret memorial, stating that if he could conquer Jiangnan, he would be appointed as the King of Jiangnan.

  But at this time came the news of Lin Jiang's serious illness and death.

  This is good news for them, Lin Jiang who was a capable person died, didn't they lose an enemy?

  So they decided to wait a little longer and make their move after Lin Jiang died.

  Who knew that Lin Jiang hadn't died yet, but instead donated all his family property to the country, and the national treasury of Da Liang suddenly became rich.

  Lv Jing and Emperor Liu were both stunned.

  Fighting a war, apart from soldiers and generals, the most important thing is food and fodder. Originally, with an empty national treasury, Da Liang could still fight one more battle, but now the other side has money...

  Emperor Liu thought they didn't have a great chance of winning, so he had Lü Jing stop the plan and wait for another opportunity.

  Ke Lu Jing and others did not get up.

  He's already over forty, how many more years can he live?

  Besides, he had already promised his subordinates that when he became the King of Jiangnan, he would greatly reward his meritorious officials, so he endured and went to memorialize the emperor, believing that Daliang could be attacked.

  Emperor Liu was weak, but he knew the truth that "haste makes waste", especially in such a chaotic world, so he didn't respond to anything.

  But Lü Jia's pressure was too great, which did not make Emperor Liu compromise, but instead made him think of dividing the power of the Grand General.

  Lü Jing is becoming more and more overbearing.

  Unfortunately, after fighting for more than a year, the Southern Han imperial family was defeated. Lü Jing launched a coup with lightning speed and then Liang and Chu joined in like cats smelling blood.

  The source of all these changes was Lin Jiang's donated property.

  Is this pot on Lin Jiang's back?

  Bai Weng didn't know whether the impact of this matter was good or bad. During the "First Generation", although Da Liang managed to keep Jiangnan, it also lost several cities and suffered countless casualties.

  Now, Nan Han is almost impossible to keep, but it also has countless casualties. In the heavenly way of each world, there is a small notebook, and he doesn't know whether Lin Jiang is positive or negative in that place.

  Bai Weng glanced at the merits surrounding him, let out a slight sigh and thought to himself: Forget it, even if I were to deduct more, it's impossible to wipe out all the merits on his body.

  Why bother him?

  At this time, people in Dalang still did not know about the internal strife of Nanyue and Lin Jiang's role in it. They were anxiously waiting for news from the border.

  It depends on the outcome of the first game whether this fight can continue or not.

  Beijing and Suzhou almost simultaneously received the good news.

  The capital has an urgent message of 800 miles, Suzhou is close but because the information is slightly delayed, so it was only known after the express report entered the capital.

  Zhou Shi was the first to receive the news, and then the Lin family, Shang family, Lu family and other big families also knew.

  Zhao Sheng naturally also received the news, because Zhao Jie was in the Southern Expedition Army.

  Suzhou was suddenly plunged into a sea of joy, and with the New Year approaching, the streets of Suzhou became lively again. The refugees who had settled down in Suzhou also began to think about doing some small business.

  Lin Qingwan sat in front of the map for half a day before having someone notify the clan to send over the clansmen who wanted to learn how to make paper.

  "By the way, bring along the refugees you've screened during this period of time, I want to teach them a skill."

  Lin Guan's family was shocked, "Auntie, you want to teach them how to make paper?"

  Lin Qingyan gave him a sideways glance and said, "Am I so stupid?"

  Lin Guanjia let out a sigh of relief and asked, "What is that girl going to teach them?"

  "Teach them how to make tofu."

  "Huh?"

  Lin Qingwan smiled slightly, without telling him why. It wasn't until the clan members and refugees stood together that Lin Guan's steward realized that no matter what skills they came to learn, they all had to do one thing first - work for the Lin family.

  Lin Qingwan stood on the wall, looking down at the hundreds of people below and said: "You want to learn from me, I don't want you to be my apprentice for several years or pay expensive tuition fees, I just want you to work in exchange."

  "She pointed to the tribesmen and said, 'If you want to learn this skill from me, you have to work for free here for 20 days.' Then she pointed to the refugees and said, 'You will have to work for 30 days. If you are diligent, I will consider reducing the number of days so that he can learn earlier.'"

  The refugees had no objection, and being able to learn a skill from them was already a windfall, let alone Lin Qingyan letting them work for thirty days, even if it was three hundred days.

  The people on this side were a bit stirred up, and someone discontentedly said: "Miss, before the head of the clan said that we came to learn craftsmanship..."

  "Of course, I didn't say you can't learn a trade," Lin Qingyan said: "Because you are my clan's relatives, so even if the trade you learn is more valuable than theirs, I will only let you do it for twenty days. If you don't want to, then forget it and go back."

  That man was choked with his face turning red, standing still in the crowd.

  Lin Qingwan pointed to a pile of farm tools at the foot of the wall and said, "Those who have decided to stay will go to work, those who don't want to learn can go home."

  Having said that, he turned around and left without saying more.

  Lin Quan was sweating profusely as he watched from the side, he was in charge of arranging for them, but did not expect that the old lady would be ordering people around together with her relatives, and thought they were just refugees.

  He couldn't help but feel anxious, "Auntie, if this gets back to the clan, it might have a bad influence."

  Lin Qing's eyes swept over him coolly as she said, "Getting something for nothing once might bring joy, but getting it twice will make one's heart too big. Later on, if you have something good and don't give it to them, they'll jump up and force you to let them have a third time. I don't want to see that happen."
