Time flies, and it's winter in a blink of an eye. Lin Jinrong is already five months pregnant. Her figure is already visible, but she is not bloated. Looking from the back, it can only be seen that she is slightly fatter, but she cannot tell that she is a fat girl.
The pregnant woman went to Xiangguo Temple that day and met Rong Qi and his wife by chance. Soon after, her life became stable.
Rong Qi and his wife didn't go to the shop to pick out anything, and they never even went there. This made Lin Jinrong think that they had too many worries, fearing that they would take this opportunity to get involved. In this case, there was no need for her to take the initiative to get involved.
I simply put this matter aside and went to meet Lu Mian on a nice day.
I went out several times, and every time I was dressed up carefully, either with hairpins from Goryeo or silk from Japan. It was not exaggerated, but very prominent, so that people can see it at a glance, and will never forget it again.
.Female relatives would often come up to chat with her and ask her where she bought things, and she would naturally tell them with a smile.
She didn't know if it was her role, but the business in the shop was gradually booming. People in the capital valued the winter solstice the most, even more than New Year's Eve. Every household would give each other gifts at that time, so the shop opened around the winter solstice.
I made a lot of money, and gradually became a little famous.
When replenishing the goods, letters from Li Zhi and Lin Shiquan also came. Li Zhi made two pairs of shoes for her and Lu Mian respectively, and several sets of small clothes for the unborn child. He told her that everything was fine and asked her to keep the clothes.
Lin Shiquan said that he would not go back to Pingzhou to celebrate the New Year this year, and would only focus on doing business in Huating County. He also said that since Wu Xiang arrived in Jiangnan, he was not accustomed to the climate and the climate, and became seriously ill, and he is still not doing well.
Lin Jinrong guessed that Wu Xiang's illness was probably related to his depression. After discussing with Lu Yan, he sent someone to specially bring some medicine to Wu Xiang when he wrote back. Although he knew that Wu Xiang did not lack these, he still had a friend.
, it is always a favor and a way of expressing relief.
As soon as the twelfth lunar month entered, Chunya and his wife and the two stewards of the Lu family brought family letters from Pingzhou, as well as many local specialties and various things for the baby prepared by the Lin, Lu, and Tao families. Because they didn’t know whether the baby was a boy or a girl.
, so whether it was prepared by the Tao family, Lin Jinyin, or the Lu family, there were one set for each man and woman, and several large boxes were packed with a dazzling array of items.
The letter from the Lin family was written by Lin Shenzhi. He used the tone of a young adult, relayed Tao's words very seriously, and told Lin Jinrong to have a good life and not be willful. He should discuss everything with Lu Mian more often, but not to tolerate any grievances.
I wanted to write a letter home to tell him. In addition, I wrote a special letter to Lu Mian.
Lin Jinrong guessed that Mrs. Tao had probably heard something from Xia Ye, or had guessed something, so she specially sent Chun Ya and his wife to help her, and responded to the letter Lin Shenzhi wrote to Lu Mian.
I am particularly interested in the letter.
After seeing this, Lu Yan didn't hide anything from her, he just said: "When my brother-in-law grows up, he will also use his mind and tricks to deal with his brother-in-law."
Lin Jinrong was even more curious: "Is he disrespectful to you?"
Lu Yan smiled and said: "Where is the disrespect? It's too respectful. I am afraid that you will be wronged, so you are always looking up to me. You will know after you read it." Lin Shenzhi's letter was full of thanks for his care.
Lin Jinrong was attentive and considerate, and could tolerate Lin Jinrong's shortcomings. Anyway, he used all his obedient words to protect Lin Jinrong, expressed his intention clearly, and made him happy and willing.
Lin Jinrong was sincerely happy. He was most afraid that Lin Shenzhi would grow up to be a pedantic little scholar who was ignorant of current affairs. Now it seems that at this age, he can communicate with Lu Mian in this way, which shows that he has grown up very well. So.
She happily wrote to Tao and Lin Shenzhi. Lin Jinyin wrote letters respectively, telling them that everything was fine and thanking Tao for sending Chun Ya here to help her.
Lu Yan was a little worried. Mr. Lu's old habit of coughing had returned. He had seen many doctors and taken a lot of medicine, but it still didn't get better. So while Lin Jinrong and Chun Ya were whispering, he met the two Lu Yan alone.
The housekeeper asked about the situation at home in detail: "The last time I received a letter from my family, I also said that my grandfather was very happy to know that my second grandma was pregnant. He is in good health. Why did he suddenly become ill again?"
The two stewards were both selected by Mrs. Lu and Lin Yuzhen, so naturally they didn't have so many taboos and told him everything about the family situation.
When Lu Yun got married in October, Lu Shao pretended to be crazy under the influence of wine and cried bitterly in front of the family members. Old Mrs. Lu was so angry that he could barely hold on to send Lu Yun out.
It took more than half a month before I could get up. Then the weather turned cold, so I was afraid of the cold and dared not go out. My diet was reduced by half, and my energy was no longer what it used to be.
Seeing that Lu Yan was worried, the two stewards had no choice but to comfort him: "The doctor said that the old lady needs to rest for a long time. When spring comes, the flowers will bloom and he will be cured."
Lu Yan thought about it for a long time, but for a while he had no other option, so he had to order them to tell Old Mrs. Lu's symptoms and write them down one by one. He planned to go to the imperial doctor the next day to get Zhang Fangzi to relieve Old Mrs. Lu's illness.
When he returned to the inner room, he said to Lin Jinrong: "I don't know what my second uncle and eldest brother are thinking. Do they really want to be kicked out? If I were to live in peace and do my job right now, maybe one day my grandfather would still be able to do it."
Forgive me, give me another chance, it is unfilial and unwise to make such a fuss. I am really worried about my grandfather's illness, and I plan to find a way to ask the imperial doctor to prescribe a prescription for them to take back and try."
Although Lu Shao and his son had never disobeyed Mr. Lu so blatantly back then, Mr. Lu still died in the late autumn of next year. He didn't know whether the prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor would work. Lin Jinrong did not dare to say this to Lu Yan.
, while looking through the various small things in the box, he said: "It's not the first time you know who they are. If they know
What is true filial piety, what is true wisdom, and how did he end up like this? He was crying just to prevent being kicked out, right? If I guessed right, he was probably crying about his own merits.
You cry and show your grievances to the clan members. If my grandfather really opens his mouth to drive him out, you will become the unjust person. This is probably what makes my grandfather most angry."
At this point, she suddenly stopped talking. A pair of bright red tiger-head shoes were quietly placed in the corner of the rattan box. The little tiger's eyes looked at her innocently, with a piercing familiarity.
"That's right. It's not a big deal for me to be said a few words. The hardest thing is my grandfather." Seeing her suddenly stop talking, Lu Yan followed her gaze and looked over. When he saw the pair of shoes, his eyes suddenly softened.
He stood down, a gentle smile appeared on his lips, and whispered: "It's so beautiful. Who did it?"
Lin Jinrong's voice had a different kind of dryness: "My aunt made them." She took away the pair of shoes and found several familiar things nearby, and she felt a little depressed. Lin Yuzhen also made them for Ning'er with her own hands back then.
Such a pair of shoes and these items, how come after so many years, Lin Yuzhen still makes the same thing again?
Lu Yan just picked it up and looked at it, and praised: "I can't believe that my mother's craftsmanship is so good." Lin Yuzhen put a lot of effort into everything she made. They are exquisite, durable, and very soft. Especially for him.
Lin Yuzhen had too many thoughts and opinions. At this moment, he was very happy and thought of her well.
Lin Jinrong sat for a while, then suddenly stood up, opened all the boxes, and looked through the things inside. But he didn't look at them seriously, he just took a casual look at everything and put it aside.
Lu Yan was confused by her and hurriedly went to help her: "What are you looking for? Just tell me and I will look for it for you."
Fortunately, there are only three or four things that are the same, and most of the others have changed. The things made for the children are just the same, and they are not strange either. Lin Jinrong told himself this, and looked back at Lu Yan with a smile: "It's nothing.
I just want to see what can be used and what should not be used, so that I can tell them to do less. There is nothing to waste."
Lu Yan stroked the back of her hand and smiled softly: "What are you afraid of? I won't be able to use it all this time. There will be a next time, and the next time, it won't break if I leave it alone." As he said this, he picked up a small cloak.
: "This is made by my third aunt."
It was a pink blue bunny cloak. Lin Jinrong took it and looked at it in his hand. He said seriously: "The third aunt also made it very carefully. The stitching couldn't be more fine. The colors also match well."
OK, I like it very much."
Lu Yan's eyes lit up and he praised: "Yes." For Lin Jinrong's compliment, he began to praise Tao, Lin Jinyin and Lin Yuzhen for their needlework. Lin Jinrong smiled slightly and stopped him: "I know, all of them
It's for our own good, and they all wish us well." After all, she is his biological mother, and he always hopes that she can get along well with Mrs. Tu.
Lu Yan said no more, hugged her and sat on the couch, and whispered: "Arong."
Lin Jinrong said "hmm" and said, "What's the matter?"
The charcoal in the charcoal basin burned crimson, making Lu Yan's face become more rosy and his eyes became darker. He held Lin Jinrong's hand tightly and said softly: "I have been so happy these days, so happy.
I hope it continues like this.”
Lin Jinrong held his hand and put it on her lower abdomen: "Touch, he is moving."
Lu Yan was careful and kept his voice, but he was still disappointed: "I didn't touch it. Did he do it on purpose?"
Lin Jinrong couldn't help but laugh: "Yes, he is just a naughty child who only works against you."
"Wait until I teach him a lesson." Lu Yan wrapped his arms around her waist, slowly leaned down, and gently placed his ear on her belly, motionless. The child seemed to know what was going on outside, and moved again in a dignified manner.
Although it was just a slight movement, Lu Yan caught it. He couldn't help but exhale softly: "Arong, he is really moving. He must have heard what I said."
Lin Jinrong's eyes suddenly became moist. She gently put her hand on Lu Yan's face and whispered: "Erlang, I am also very happy these days." She also hopes that these days will continue to be peaceful, so she will do her best.
