In the afternoon, thick clouds covered most of the sky, and the sun struggled to shine through from the depths of the clouds, adding a bit of scorching heat to the already muggy and humid weather, making people a bit more irritable for no reason.
Lin Jinrong was sitting on the porch, gently fanning Yilang who was sleeping beside him, and whispered to Lin Jinyin: "If I hadn't paid for the renovation of the old house and taken care of everything for him, I would have come to Qingzhou to see you.
I'm just dreaming." This time she came to Qingzhou with Mrs. Tao. Lu Yan took Lin Shenzhi to see them off, and both of them only stayed for two days before rushing back to Pingzhou. Half the time
Yue came to pick them up again.
"What are you yelling about? Didn't you see your brother sleeping?" Lin Jinyin turned around and yelled at the two sons who were playing quietly at the side, then turned around and said in a gentle and gentle tone: "Who told you to make the formation so big?
?It’s hard not to feel sad and unbearable when you spend a lot of money while they lose money!”
Instead of letting the Lu family keep an eye on them all day long, and end up with nothing left when the bandits broke out, it would be better to do something useful at this time. Lin Jinrong couldn't tell Lin Jinyin the truth, so he could only sigh: "I didn't think so much when I did it, and I didn't even think about it.
I thought that all the teachers and wives would suddenly push me out."
Lin Jinyin said: "That's all, I've done everything. It's useless to talk to you at this time." He gently hugged Lin Jinrong's shoulders and laughed softly: "Don't talk about this. We sisters haven't seen each other for many years. You can't stay here."
I have to leave again in a few days, so I want to say something happy. I don’t know when we will see each other next time."
Lin Jinrong rested his head on Lin Jinyin's shoulder and whispered: "I miss the time when we were still at home. At that time, you were really strict with me and my seventh brother, but you were also really kind to us. You have to
When I got married, I was so worried. I thought about it every day, what would I do if you left and my mother, seventh brother and me were left?" In her previous life, she was ignorant, but in her later life she became a governor, but she had no confidence. She was then
Really worried.
Thinking of the past, Lin Jinyin couldn't help but have a happy smile on her face: "Whenever Badger Lang and Yu Lang quarreled and asked me for comment, I often thought of the past. I remember that you were timid and timid at that time.
She was so haggard that she could even give the sixth sister what her mother gave her for her birthday. The seventh sister snatched it away, and she didn't dare to say anything but just cried. But when she was sick, she suddenly seemed to be a different person, and she suddenly became obsessed with money.
Go there... Now, I am actually willing to spend money to help others."
Lin Jinrong remembered the first time she made money, looking for capital everywhere, and shamelessly asked Tao Fengtang to help buy and sell gold and silver. Lin Jinyin scolded her severely, and she couldn't help but laugh: "My sister was really fierce at that time, and she taught people so much."
One after another. My seventh brother and I are the most worried about your change of attitude."
When Badger Lang heard his mother and aunt talking about their childhood, he couldn't help but become interested. He pushed his younger brother Yulang aside, and came over curiously: "Aunt, was my mother so powerful when she was a child?"
Lin Jinyin raised his hand high, hit him lightly on the head, and whispered: "Where is the room for you, a child, to interrupt when an adult is talking?"
Badger Lang stuck out his tongue playfully at his mother, turned around and tapped Yu Lang's head gently, pretending to scold him: "Did you hear me? Sir, please stop chirping."
Not to be outdone, Yulang pulled Lin Jinyin's sleeve and whispered in a sweet voice: "Mom, brother, he bullied me again."
Lin Jinyin scolded Badger Lang: "When your seventh uncle was your age..."
Badger Lang immediately sighed and said in an old-fashioned manner: "I know, when my seventh uncle was my age, he was already close to becoming a disciple of Mr. Zhu. He also knew how to protect his sister and mother, and take care of his great-grandfather. I will accompany him right now.
Grandpa, let's go." He smiled and said goodbye to Lin Jinrong, and then took Yulang's hand: "Let's go, brother will take you to take a nap first."
Yulang obediently took his hand and followed him. The two brothers, one tall and one short, were in indescribable harmony. Lin Jinyin looked at his son's back and sighed softly: "Your eldest cousin is not at home all year round, and I am alone."
People have too many things to take care of and can't keep busy, so Badger Lang develops this temperament. At a young age, he can already take care of many things for me. He can help his grandfather relax and talk, and he can also take care of Yu Lang. But
After all, he doesn’t have a father around, he’s spoiled by his grandfather, he’s playful and smiling, and he’s not very afraid of me.”
Lin Jinrong couldn't help but smile and said: "This child is already very sensible. A seven or eight-year-old child can help you with household chores, take care of the elderly and children, and also study. What do you want from him? It would be better if he has a cheerful temperament. If he is like
It's like the guy in my family who keeps a straight face all the time and can count the words he says on his fingers, but that's not the case."
Lin Jinyin tapped her head lightly with her fan: "You are arranging people behind your back, what's wrong with Lu Mian?" Thinking of Tao Fengtang from far away in the south of the Yangtze River, she couldn't help but sigh again. The young couple were originally
We are deeply in love, but we have been living apart in two places. It is rare to see each other again, how can we not feel melancholy!
Lin Jinrong saw her expression in his eyes and whispered: "How about that thing I told you two days ago? Why not take advantage of my uncle's health to improve these days and accompany him to Jiangnan to relax, and your family can do it too
Reunion. Separating like this is not the way to go."
Lin Jinrong had a look of yearning on his face, but he was extremely embarrassed: "It's good, but the family has a big business and it's easy to throw it away. Besides, you heard from your uncle that it's hard to leave your homeland and he doesn't want to leave.
What can be done?”
The plan had been planned a few years ago, and Tao Fengtang had also taken a stand. He thought that Tao Shunqin would probably not refuse, but at this time, it was still so difficult. There was a dull thunder "rumbling" from the horizon.
When they came over, Lin Jinrong felt dry and hot, and she was covered in fine sweat. She couldn't help but fan herself hard: "It's so hot."
Lin Jinyin then fanned herself and looked at the sky: "The rain is about to fall, but the clouds are covering it like this, and the wind is not blowing. Of course it's hot. In fact, it's not bad. Last summer was even hotter, and the sun was white every day.
If you point it in the sun, all the oil will be baked out."
Lin Jinrong muttered: "Why didn't you say that there was so much rain later that people drowned to death?"
Lin Jinyin could feel that her mood suddenly became irritable, but he didn't know what she was irritated about, so he advised: "Don't worry, I have learned over the years that no matter what it is, it will be difficult at first, but there will always be something."
When you get through it.”
Lin Jinrong smiled in response to the situation.
Suddenly he saw Loquat walking in quickly. Although he tried his best to stay calm, his face still showed a bit of panic, and he said with a white face: "Grandma..."
Lin Jinyin thought it was something serious that had happened at home, and said quickly: "Don't be anxious, speak slowly." But when she saw Loquat glance at Lin Jinrong, looking like he didn't want to say anything, he became a little angry: "I have something to say.
Just say it! Hesitating like this!"
Loquat still looked embarrassed, so Lin Jinrong stood up and said, "I'm going to see if mother has woken up from her nap."
Loquat wiped the sweat from his forehead and lowered his voice: "No, why are you trying to hide it from Fourth Aunt? I'm afraid that Fourth Aunt will be anxious."
Seeing that she was hesitant to speak, Lin Jinyin couldn't help but said: "I'm so anxious, what are you going to say?"
Loquat whispered: "The news just came that some soldiers in Pingzhou rebelled! I heard that there were hundreds of them and they killed several officials. It made a big fuss."
The fan in Lin Jinyin's hand almost fell to the ground. She hurriedly stabilized it, glanced at Lin Jinrong quickly, and said, "So what's going on now? Is there anything big happening over there in Pingzhou?"
It was launched after all. But she remembered that there were dozens of soldiers at the time, but how did it become hundreds? Was it a misinformation or something had gone awry again? Lin Jinrong was uncertain, but felt like the dust had settled again——
What was supposed to happen eventually happened.
The important thing Lin Jinyin mentioned was whether these mutinous soldiers took the opportunity to attack and rob wealthy households, kill people and set fires. Loquat knew it in his heart, but he couldn't explain why. He only said: "Outside
The news that just came in is vague, and I don’t know what the actual situation is.”
"Then ask people to inquire again. Why are you still standing there?" Lin Jinyin saw that Lin Jinrong had been silent, thinking that she was frightened, and hurriedly supported her and comforted her: "It doesn't matter, it must be nothing serious. You also know,
Three people become tigers, and everyone's mouth makes gold. Maybe it is a random rumor, and it gets lost as it spreads." But in the end, Lin Jinyin himself was also anxious. The Tao family is here, but there are still so many people in the Lin family.
There, not to mention the people from the Lu and Wu families. Because they were threatening Mrs. Tao, they hurriedly told everyone around them: "Until the matter is clarified, you must not spread it to your wife."
A gust of wind blew, and the leaves all over the courtyard rustled. The moist smell spread from far to near. Lin Jinrong held Lin Jinyin's hand tightly, looked up at the horizon, and whispered: "It's going to rain."
As soon as he finished speaking, raindrops the size of soybeans came down with a strong smell of earth. The trees and flowers in the courtyard were instantly submerged in the white rain and mist. The dull thunder was accompanied by ferocious lightning. Yi
Lang woke up from his dream and let out a cry.
Lin Jinrong hurriedly leaned over to pick him up and comforted him softly: "Mom is here, don't be afraid, it's thunder."
Yilang was comforted in time and gradually stopped crying. He lay obediently in Lin Jinrong's arms and watched the rain. Lin Jinrong and Lin Jinyin stood on the porch for a while, but the wind was too strong and blew all the rain in.
I had no choice but to pack up and go into the house, each holding a cup of tea and remaining speechless.
After a long while, Lin Jinrong whispered: "Does Third Sister know about Yu Zongsheng?"
Lin Jinyin said: "How come you don't know? It's not as easy here as you. He doesn't think the climate here is as good as Pingzhou, so he refuses to stay here. In fact, people guess he is afraid that Da Rong's cavalry will suddenly run away.
Come here." After a moment of silence, he sighed: "How could a soldier be the first to rebel?"
Lin Jinrong whispered: "I heard from Erlang that he deducted military pay and forced the soldiers to do hard work. The soldiers' life was also difficult." Those people had swords and guns in their hands, so they were probably much more courageous.
After more than half an hour, the rain gradually subsided. A servant woman ran in holding an umbrella, stood on the porch and said: "Master, please invite grandma and fourth aunt to come over."
