However, Lin Ruhai was concerned about his daughter-in-law, Jia Min's maternal family, the Jia family.

Although the Jia Clan did not benefit from the Mao Canal, it was closely related to the Jia Clan.

To put it bluntly, the Jia family didn't have the courage to touch the salt policy, but they were used as guns by other families.

"En Hou (Lin Ruhai's nickname), actually this lowly official has one more thing to say.

Perhaps after hearing what I have to say, En Hou will be able to dispel all his worries.”

After understanding, Yuan Ye raised his teacup and said to Lin Ruhai.

"Oh? What's the matter?"

Lin Ruhai raised his head and stared at Yuan Ye as he asked.

In Lin Ruhai's heart, Yuan Ye didn't know anything.

On one side was his wife's family, and on the other side was the imperial court.

He couldn't make a choice.

"En Hou, think about how healthy your wife was when she was still alive and just got married. Then, your wife became pregnant less than half a year after you married.

Moreover, he even gave birth to a son to inherit the family business for you.

However, before he was three years old, he was already gone.

After that, your and your wife's health conditions are getting worse every day.

In the next few years, no matter what method she used, she could not conceive a child. The old lady of your residence also died of depression. In the end, she finally got pregnant, but the child was born with a weak constitution.

He ate more medicinal soup than rice.

Do you know why?"

"En Hou, why don't you think about how your Lin Family is at least safe from sickness and disaster even though your population is declining?

Moreover, with your family's status, it's easy for you to invite countless famous doctors to come and see you.”

Yuan Ye stood up and came to the pavilion. He looked at the ornamental fish door in the pool and said indifferently to Lin Ruhai.

At first, Lin Ruhai was furious when he heard Yuan Ye's words. He couldn't help but slap the table and stand up to shut Yuan Ye up. However, when he heard the latter part, the anger in Lin Ruhai's heart instantly turned into doubt and anger.

Lin Ruhai was not stupid. After Yuan Ye's reminder, he understood that someone was targeting their Lin family.

This was to make their Lin family lose their descendants!

This time, Lin Ruhai could no longer hold it in.

He stood up and gritted his teeth as he asked Yuan Ye,""Who is it?"

"I can't tell you who it is.

However, can you think back to when you were a doctor of Lantai Temple?

At that time, En Hou was an official in Jingdou.

However, after becoming the salt policy censor, did your son die prematurely, your mother died of depression, and your and your wife's bodies were about to deteriorate every day?”

Yuan Ye shook his head and turned to Lin Ruhai.

"You…you're saying that it's those salt farmers and the forces behind them who want our Lin family to die?”

Lin Ruhai understood immediately.

Because this was the only way to make sense.

He was definitely doing this for the benefit of the Dayu Dynasty.

For the benefit of the Dayu Dynasty, it would definitely offend the benefits of the salt workers.

Therefore, they were most likely to take revenge on Lin Ruhai.

"No, no, En Hou, you're wrong.

Although you have touched the interests of the salt workers, this is what the salt policy censors of the past generations will do.

Moreover, the salt policy censor was a third-grade official, an official appointed by the imperial court.

Moreover, every salt policy censor was a trusted aide.

If the salt policy censor was killed, it would definitely incite the wrath of the imperial court and wipe them out.

Therefore, the salt workers did not dare to do so.

He wouldn't let anyone else do it.

Because if someone else did this, they would be the first suspect of the imperial court.”

Yuan Ye explained to Lin Ruhai.

Lin Ruhai could not help but feel that it made sense.

However, if it wasn't for the power behind Yanding and Si, who would want to kill their Lin family?

"Enhou, your family has been marquises for generations and has accumulated countless wealth.

In addition, Enhou, you have also occupied the position of salt policy censor, which is a very lucrative position. Even if you don't take bribes, there will still be a lot of silver flowing into Enhou's pocket.

Therefore, everyone now acknowledged that En Hou's family was extremely wealthy.

En Hou Gui Furen's maiden family, the Jia family, seemed to be in a great position outside, but their daily luxurious lifestyle, coupled with the fact that the Grand Elder Jia Hao frequented the brothels every day and loved antiques, made it very normal for him to spend money like dirt every day. As for the Second Grandpa Jia Zheng, he was extremely pedantic and would invite his fair-weather friends every day to show off his literary skills.

The Jia family was already unable to make ends meet.

In order to make a living, he had even started to put money behind his back.

And when your wife married En Hou, she brought along a dowry maid, but why did the Jia family send an old granny over?

And that old granny left after your wife passed away?

Now that the old grandma has left En Hou's body, En Hou, you probably noticed it yourself.

To put it bluntly, when the Lin family is left with only your Miss Lin, where will she take the Lin family's assets?

At that time, En Hou would be wondering what the Jia family's bad debts would do to the Lin family's assets.”

Yuan Ye came to Lin Ruhai and said.

"No…Impossible, impossible, Min Er is the old lady's biological daughter! Moreover, she was the only biological daughter of the old lady!

She's the apple of the old lady's eye!"

Lin Ruhai kept retreating. He held onto a pillar and covered his chest with one hand as he muttered in disbelief.

Yuan Ye's words were not clear, but Lin Ruhai understood.

"Nothing is impossible. You should know what kind of person the old lady is. When Jia Daishan and his mother were still alive, the old lady of the Jia family looked down on the old lady.

At that time, the old lady was famous for her shrewdness.

You have a very sharp eye for people."

"Later, when Old Lady Shi gave birth to Jia Hao, the eldest son of the Jia family, she was directly raised by Old Lady Shi.

At that time, Jia Hao was a famous young master in the capital.

She studied hard and was sensible.

If not for that, Old Master Zhang would have married his only daughter to Jia Hao.

He wondered why Mrs. Shi would insist on staying with Jia Hao's family after the old lady and Jia Daishan were gone, and why she would drive Jia Hao's family to live next to the cowshed and let her second son, Jia Zheng, live in Rongxi Hall, a place that only the family head was qualified to live in.

Also, don't forget…Jia Hao had an eldest son who died at the age of three.

Moreover, Jia Hao had grown up in a honey pot. Without the old lady and Jia Daishan, it would be easy to ruin Jia Hao's reputation.”

Yuan Ye whispered to Lin Ruhai.

These words were very obvious. When Matriarch Shi was ruthless, she even dared to treat her own son like this. She even dared to kill her own grandson. Would she care about a mere married daughter?

Obviously, they didn't care. Of course, the premise was that the Lin family didn't have so much property that the Jia family was jealous of.
