Lin Jinrong came out of Lin Yuzhen's yard. It was already afternoon, and she walked along the bluestone road for a while. Suddenly she heard someone shouting from behind: "Fourth sister!"
Lin Jinrong looked back, and saw Lu Lun wearing an azure cotton robe, standing not far away like a bear, with two thick eyebrows like worms dancing happily, and grinning at her.
Lychee complained in a low voice: "How can this Fifth Master still call you sister? We haven't seen each other for so long. He only grows taller but doesn't have a good heart."
Lin Jinrong was in a good mood and said with a smile: "Fifth brother, didn't I say you were studying in Juxian Pavilion? How come you have time to come out?"
"Okay, this time you have become my sister-in-law. The fifth brother shouted so smoothly." Lu Lun strode towards her and said with a smile: "The second brother went to find my grandfather. My grandfather thought that I was too noisy while I was studying.
, the voice was too unpleasant, so he kicked me out. My second brother asked me to tell you that he won’t be back for lunch, and asked you not to wait. What have you been doing these past two days? I haven’t met you since yesterday morning.
I've been to you."
Lychee said: "Fifth Master, our grandma has just entered the house, how dare she walk around? Please don't call her fourth sister again, people will say that our grandma is immodest."
Lu Lun blushed rarely: "If you don't shout, don't shout."
Seeing his blushing face, Lin Jinrong couldn't help but think to herself that he was finally enlightened.
Suddenly Lu Lun touched his head in embarrassment and whispered: "I just heard that they are angry with you? Oh, you are really in trouble. I want to help you, but I don't know how to help you.
Well, if you want me to do anything, just ask someone to come and tell me that I live in the courtyard with apricot flowers to the east. Even if I am not here, it will be the same with the servant. Remember this
Already."
In this family, she would not necessarily trust anyone who said they felt sorry for her, were worried about her, or wanted to help her. Only Lu Lun was a solid man, and she never doubted it. Lin Jinrong felt warm in her heart.
He smiled and said, "Are you deliberately making noise to Grandpa and want to be kicked out by him?"
Lu Lun smiled and said: "You guessed it right." He rolled his eyes and said mischievously: "I always feel that you are a different person compared to before. If you were before, you must be crying. This
But he was laughing now. You are so good at playing the xun, ordering tea, and doing business. Have you met some strange person? Tell me, I will definitely not tell anyone else. I just want to worship him as a teacher and learn from him.
It’s a one-trick, two-part move.”
Lychee burst out laughing: "Master Wu is making up a story, right?"
Lu Lun smiled stupidly: "No?"
"How can there be any strange people? They are even gods. I have been locked up at home all day long. Even if there is one, how can I touch him?" Lin Jinrong couldn't help but stroked his hot cheeks and said seriously: "Fifth brother, please follow me.
Grandpa, just study and stop thinking about joining the army."
Lu Lun was startled, a little unhappy: "Why are you like them? What's wrong with joining the army? I'm going to take the martial arts exam. I will take the martial arts exam first and become a general! I must!" After thinking about it, he gritted his teeth again.
Emphasis on tone: "Must! Must!"
If he really wanted to take the martial arts exam and join the army, that would be fine, but he didn't. What he did was a treasonous thing, and he lost his life because of it. As long as he could change this wish, he could save his life. But
This man is a stubborn person and cannot be shaken easily, so he can only do it step by step. Earlier, Lin Jinrong originally planned to send a letter to the Lu family to stop him in the critical turning year, but since she got married again by accident, it is better to start from the beginning.
Let’s start talking about Lu Lun now.
Lin Jinrong then smiled and said: "I'm not stopping you. It's good to study more. If you are brave and resourceful, you will be freer after you study well. You won't be locked up like this all the time. You can find someone to learn archery, horse riding, and archery.
It doesn’t work…”
"No, stop talking. I know what you are going to say next. At my age, what great achievements can I make in studying?" Lu Lun said goodbye to Lin Jinrong in a hurry, as if he was afraid that Lin Jinrong would persuade him again.
: "I came here specifically to tell you this, and I'm leaving!" After saying that, he ran away.
Lychee stared at his back and said: "This fifth master really doesn't look like a member of this family. At this age, he is still so hot-tempered and heartless. It seems that everything has nothing to do with him."
Lin Jinrong said in a deep voice: "Lizhi, he can believe it. You tell them that no matter what, they must respect the Fifth Master."
Lychee didn't know why, but seeing that she didn't seem to be joking, she took note of it seriously and didn't mention it.
It was getting late, so Lin Jinrong carefully lifted the letter paper in his hand to dry in the wind, then put it into an envelope and sealed it. He wrote the word "Yang Mo" on the envelope with a pen in his hand.
"Who are you writing to?" Lu Yan walked in, holding up a newly cut red plum in his hand.
Lin Jinrong glanced at the red plum in his hand and waved the envelope to him: "Yang Mo. I heard that she is about to give birth, so I will prepare a gift to congratulate her."
"Get a jade pot and spring bottle to keep." Lu Yan handed the red plum to Dou'er and turned around to ask Lin Jinrong: "Where did Yang Mo marry?"
Lin Jinrong said: "Xinzhou, I don't know exactly where it is. Every time I send her letters and things, I entrust people from the Wu family to bring them there."
"Is this time going to be sent to the Wu family? So thick?" Lu Yan walked to Lin Jinrong and sat down, reaching for her envelope. Lin Jinrong shrank her hand, opened her eyes wide and said warily: "They are all from women.
It’s a private conversation, and it’s sealed.”
Lu Yan had never seen her like this, so he couldn't help but smile and said, "How could I read your letter? I just want to see how your handwriting is."
You are in a good mood. Is Mr. Lu ready to take action? The good times are still to come. I think Mr. Tu will die next. I will see if you can still laugh when the time comes. Lin Jinrong said casually: "
No matter how good my calligraphy is, I can't compare to yours. Are you familiar with the place in Shinshu?"
It was clear, smooth, lean and well-written. Lu Yan's eyes were firmly glued to the words on the envelope: "I have never been to Xinzhou. We were in Jiangzhou at that time and later went to Hongzhou."
Lin Jinrong stopped talking and carefully locked the letter in the makeup box. He called Li Zhi in and opened the box to get the things for Yang Mo. Lu Mian looked at the side and saw a white jade wall with crystal colors inside.
Runze said, "This jade looks good."
Lin Jinrong guessed that he meant that the gift was a heavy gift, so he said: "She gave me a pair of gold-inlaid mutton-fat white jade hairpins for makeup, so I specially picked this one to return to her."
Lu Yan saw her and Li Zhi carefully filling a small box with all kinds of small things and then sealing it. It was obvious that they attached great importance to Yang Mo. Then he asked again: "Do you remember Gu Shuchi?"
Lin Jinrong thought for a long time before he remembered that it was the person he met in Qingzhou, and then said: "Remember the person from Qingzhou?"
"Yes." Seeing that she remembered, Lu Yan had a smile in his eyes and leaned over: "He was appreciated by an adult last year and went to work as a staff member in Hezhong Mansion."
Lin Jinrong didn't know why he suddenly mentioned Gu Shuchi to her, so he casually said: "Then his family's livelihood will be solved."
Lu Yan smiled and said, "Yes, I'm very happy for him. A few days ago, he asked someone to write me a letter, inviting me to visit him when I have time. It's a pity that I can't go."
"There will be opportunities in the future. Maybe you can become an official there." Lin Jinrong stood up and said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
Lu was silent for a moment and whispered: "I want to stay in Beijing. I will take you with me when the time comes." After saying this, he quickly stood up, took the red plum in Dou'er's hand, and asked Lin Jinrong: "What do you think?"
Where should I put it?"
Lin Jinrong said without thinking: "Put it on your desk. It will feel fresher when you read."
"I'll leave it to you. I'll go to the Snow Pavilion to read a book tomorrow." Lu Yan stood up, put the vase on the photo table, turned his back to her and said, "Grandpa just praised you."
Lin Jinrong twitched the corners of his lips: "I thought I would be scolded. I have always been afraid."
"..." He didn't see that she was afraid at all. Lu Mian endured it and said: "He is not an unreasonable person. He will personally arrange for someone to nurse the sixth brother back to health, and then personally teach the sixth brother for a period of time.
, if the gentlemen are willing to accept it, send the sixth brother there. If the gentlemen do not accept it, find another academy for him and ask Lu Lun to accompany him."
"That's good. The food is here, wash your hands and eat." Lin Jinrong stood up and washed his hands, instructing the girls to set the table and set the food. As usual, he personally replenished the rice and gave chopsticks to Lu Yan, meticulous and considerate.
As soon as she sat down, she saw Lu Yan giving her a piece of roasted chicken. He looked at her and said, "This is our cook's specialty."
Lin Jinrong was silent and stretched her chopsticks towards the plate of white meat with garlic paste in front of her. Before she picked it up, she heard Lu Yan whisper: "I don't like that."
Lin Jinrong paused, took back his chopsticks, picked up some bamboo shoots and bream, and ate the piece of roasted chicken like he was swallowing medicine.
Lu Yan ate with his eyes downcast, and then gave her a piece of roasted chicken.
Lin Jinrong couldn't help it and said, "I don't like this."
Lu Yan took it back and smiled at her: "I don't like bamboo shoots and bream either. I heard you like suckling lamb? Let the kitchen make some tomorrow."
Lin Jinrong whispered: "No need, you can eat whatever you have."
Lu Yan nodded and said no more words.
After finishing the meal, Lychee helped Lin Jinrong wash her hands and rinse her mouth, and said in a low voice: "Grandma, since the second master told you that the roasted chicken is the chef's specialty, and he served it to you as soon as it was served, again and again.
, that means he likes it. Why don’t you also give him a piece?”
Lin Jinrong said: "Next time."
"Then you must remember. Tomorrow, I will go and find out what the second master likes to eat and what he doesn't like to eat." Lychee sighed helplessly. In return, Lin Jinrong arranged a place for Lu Zhen to go.
For this branch of red plum, Lu Yan took the initiative to pick up the roasted chicken. He also said that Lin Jinrong loved suckling mutton, and what he wanted was definitely more than just the bamboo shoots and roasted chicken. Just take your time. Lin Jinrong had already cooked it earlier than her.
It was much better than I thought before.
