The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 301

[Chapter 301: People’s Gratitude]

Yang Sheng nodded, and after watching Lin Tian leave, he turned back to the lobby and sighed softly.

“I hope tomorrow’s Mid-Autumn Festival Banquet can be spent peacefully! My apprentice must be a dragon among men. Old man Lin has a good son, but I’m not bad either!”

Yang Sheng changed his expression just now and said with a sly smile.

“After all, he is also a man. A hero can’t resist the temptation of beauty, so daughters are better! Hahahaha, old man Lin has given me a good son!”

Lin Zuhua would probably be amused and cry when he heard this.

This old fox actually set his sights on his own son and wanted to use a beauty trap!

Although Lin Tian didn’t know why Yang Sheng asked him to take care of Yang Zhiqing, he also guessed something.

This Mid-Autumn Festival Banquet doesn’t seem to be simple, so I have to be careful to deal with it!

Lin Tian sat in the carriage and walked slowly towards home.

After a while, Lin Tian estimated that he was about to get home, and the servant who was driving the car suddenly shouted to Lin Tian inside.

“Master, there are so many people gathered at the gate of the mansion, we can’t get through!”

Lin Tian heard this, wondering if someone came to the mansion to cause trouble again, these people are really restless.

Lin Tian quickly stuck his head out to see that there was indeed a large group of people outside the Lin Mansion, young and old, men and women.

“It doesn’t look like they are causing trouble? Forget it, let’s go back first and go through the back door!”

To be on the safe side, Lin Tian asked the coachman to go in through the back door so that he could ask what was going on.

Lin Tian entered the Lin Mansion from the back door and came to the lobby, where he found that everyone was gathered together, as if discussing something.

“Master, you are finally back, there are so many people outside looking for you!”

Lin Kang saw that his master finally came back, and hurried forward to greet him.

“Oh, did you ask clearly what you are here for?”

Lin Tian asked Lin Kang.

“I don’t know. They said they would not tell me until they saw the young master. I wanted to ask them to leave first, but they didn’t listen. Young master, are they here to cause trouble? How about I go to the police?”

Lin Kang was a little worried that these people would harm his young master, so he proposed to find someone to drive them away.

“It doesn’t matter. I’ll go out and see what’s going on first. It doesn’t look like they are here to cause trouble!”

Lin Tian said and walked to the door. Lin Kang hurriedly followed behind.

When he arrived at the door, Lin Tian pushed it open and saw who these people were.

They were not here to cause trouble, but to thank Lin Tian, because these were the people of Jiangbei!

He knew the faces of these people. They were all the refugees outside Ningjiang City at that time!

It’s just that the last time I saw them, they were all pale and thin. Now it seems that their faces are much rosier. They should have rested.

Many of them were holding some things in their hands, including fruits and vegetables, and some were carrying chickens and ducks.

Lin Tian suddenly felt that this scene was familiar, and hurriedly looked to see if there was anyone carrying pork in the crowd. He was still a little scared when he thought of the pork beauty!

Lin Tian took a look and found no such person. He was relieved. Other things were easy to deal with, but he couldn’t handle that kind of thing well!

“Everyone, be quiet. I am Lin Tian. You should be the people of Jiangbei!”

Before Lin Tian finished speaking, an old man who led the group recognized Lin Tian and shouted to everyone.

“The great benefactor Lin is here. Look, this is the great benefactor Lin who saved us. Let’s kowtow to him together!”

After the old man finished speaking, he was about to kneel down. Others followed suit and kowtowed to Lin Tian. Lin Tian was so scared that he ran down quickly, helped the old man up, and signaled everyone to get up quickly.

“Everyone, get up quickly. There is no need to perform such a great ceremony. I can’t bear it. If the emperor knows about it, I will punish him!”

Lin Tian said loudly, and asked Lin Kang behind him to help the old men up quickly.

“I am just following the emperor’s orders. The emperor sent me to deal with the disaster. If you want to thank someone, thank the emperor for his great grace!”

Lin Tian clasped his hands together and saluted to the sky, indicating that everyone should thank the emperor!

“Yes, yes, everyone should thank the emperor for his wisdom!”

The old man who led the group also reacted when he saw Lin Tian say this, and said loudly.

This is the capital, under the feet of the emperor, and we should be careful in what we say and do.

He quickly led everyone to kneel down in the direction of the palace and shouted together.

“Thank you, Your Majesty, long live the emperor!”

Lin Tian did not dare to take credit for it, so he could only give all the credit to the emperor. The emperor was definitely worthy of this great gift, and there was no need to worry about shortening his life!

“Everyone, get up quickly, I will tell the emperor your gratitude!”

Lin Tian motioned them to get up again and continued.

“Everyone has worked hard all the way to Beijing. It’s getting late. I will ask the housekeeper to cook some food for you and then arrange for you to stay!”

“Don’t bother, Mr. Lin, we all brought dry food, and we will go back in a while. Don’t bother you. We are here to thank you, how can we bother you!” The

old man who led the group quickly declined.

After the old man finished speaking, a middle-aged man behind him possessed him and whispered something in his ear.

At this time, the old man suddenly realized something and waved his hand behind him. The villagers immediately rushed up, carrying all kinds of food in their hands.

“Mr. Lin, we Jiangbei people don’t have much money. We brought some local specialties, some vegetables grown by ourselves and poultry. You must accept them!”

Lin Tian wanted to refuse, but thinking that these people had worked hard to get them from such a far place, it would not be good to let them take them back, so he had to accept them.

“Okay, then I will accept these things! Forget about these poultry, I am tired of eating them!”

Although the court has allocated funds for disaster relief, these poultry and other things are what the people rely on for survival, so Lin Tian can’t accept them.

He pretended to be a dandy and said that if others thought he was ungrateful, they might think he was ungrateful, but the villagers of Jiangbei were all in tears.

They knew that Lin Tian was a man with a sharp tongue but a soft heart, and he was unwilling to accept these poultry for their own good!

“That’s right, Mr. Lin doesn’t need anything. Let’s take these back. If we have the chance in the future, we will definitely repay Mr. Lin for his kindness!”

“Repay Mr. Lin for his kindness!”

After the old man who looked like the village chief finished speaking, the people behind him repeated it, their tone full of gratitude.

“Okay, okay, it’s getting late. This young master asked Lin Kang to prepare some food for you. Eat and go back early, otherwise it will be dark when you go back!”

Lin Tian waved his hand pretending to be indifferent, and his tone was not to be refused.

How can those dry food fill their stomachs? They must have come before dawn. If they are not allowed to eat well, they will have to spend a lot of energy on the return journey.

So he directly asked Lin Kang to arrange food.

Although his words sounded like he was driving people away, everyone knew Lin Tian’s good intentions and nodded quickly.
