"Don't tell me, your aunt is really lucky." Mrs. Tao's unintentional sigh inadvertently opened the door deep in Lin Jinrong's memory, so that half of her body was stiff, and she couldn't even breathe for a moment.
When Mrs. Tao learned that Lu Yan had passed the exam, she also sighed in the same way, but her tone and expression were not as downcast as before. Her mother's fate was changing, but what about her own? Lin Jinrong was stunned when he looked at the shaking lights.
It was at Lin Jinyin's wedding banquet in the winter of this year that Lin Yuzhen proposed to marry Lu Mian in a half-joking and half-serious tone. At that time, Tao did not agree and refused to wait until Lin Jinyin's affairs were settled.
Besides. But without Lin Jinyin to support Zhou Yuan, Tao's life went from bad to worse. He fell ill at any time, his concubine Feihong was aggressive, Master Lin's third master was evil-hearted and had a rotten liver, and the big and second houses were squeezed. Finally, in the second year,
In the spring, Mr. Tao had no choice but to agree to the marriage.
Can she get away from this fate this time? Lin Jinrong was nervous and uneasy like never before. She wished that Lin Yuzhen would quickly arrange Lu Yan's marriage, but she couldn't think of any ability or method she had to quickly facilitate this marriage.
Let yourself be completely at ease about your marriage.
The current situation is the limit of what she can do - she has successfully made Lin Yuzhen, her daughter, and Lu Yan hate her. Lin Liu stands out and becomes Lin Yuzhen's favorite person at present; Tao is in good health and in a good mood.
Lin Shenzhi was lively and motivated, and the old man liked him very much. Mr. Lin San could not make waves, and Aunt Huang and her son were quite obedient. It seemed that everything was fine and had changed to varying degrees, but she was just afraid.
Is there another path for her to take?
Lin Jinrong pulled out the hairpin and carefully picked up the wick. Three wicks were placed in the oil lamp. The flame was large and bright. After the hairpin removed the layer of withered black dust on the wick, the yellow flame suddenly grew larger and turned light blue.
The flame core also expanded rapidly. Lin Jinrong stared closely at the flame, and his heart suddenly brightened.
Why have you forgotten this? It’s not that I didn’t think about it when I was watching the plum blossoms last year, but then I went to a village in the countryside, and then I just focused on buying saline-alkali land. I hadn’t seen this person for a long time, and I forgot about it. What a great opportunity.
It's right in front of you, why not do it? Lin Jinrong took a deep breath, looked back at Mrs. Tao and said with a smile: "Mom, do we have to go to the Wu family in person to deliver the gift?"
Mrs. Tao and Lin Jinyin were looking through some jade pendants and other things, trying to pick out something suitable to give as a gift. When they heard this, they said without raising their heads: "That's your aunt's natal family, how can you not go?"
Lin Jinrong walked over and took out a jade pendant: "This is good."
Tao took a look and saw that it was an oval-shaped white jade pendant with a duck carved on it. He smiled and said, "It has a good meaning."
Lin Jinyin disagreed: "One of the first-class and one-class, this is good. I think the Wu family will like it, but what should I give Lu Yan as a gift? You can't give him a second-class Chuanlu, right? With such a relationship between the two families, no one can give it to anyone.
Okay, why don't you give it away and leave it to my seventh brother?"
Mrs. Tao smiled and said, "Okay, let's leave it to Little Lao Qi."
Lin Jinrong stopped asking about the gift-giving. Instead, he grabbed a few silk ribbons and tied them into knots. He casually asked Mrs. Tao: "Mom, will the Wu family send someone to Qingzhou to celebrate my aunt's birthday?"
Wu was in her forties, and Tao was very sure: "It will definitely happen."
"Then shall we go together?" Silk Sui quickly formed the prototype of a plum blossom knot under Lin Jinrong's deft and skillful interweaving.
Mrs. Tao said: "I don't know about this, but I have to ask. I owe his family a lot of love, and there is no chance to repay it." The Wu family went to Qingzhou frequently, and they would always come to ask her if she had anything.
What she wants to take to Qingzhou is nothing more than objects and letters. It’s rare that she has a mother-in-law here to take care of things and take people with her. She has good food, drink and hospitality on the way, and she often brings things to the Tao family when she comes back.
I owe her so much.
According to Wu Xiang's temperament, he is probably going to travel around after the big exam, so I wonder if he will go with him? Even if he doesn't go, it would be great if Yang goes. But if they don't go, but
Where are the others going? Lin Jinrong felt a little upset and irritable, but she felt that this kind of thing was really beyond her control and she had no way to control it, so she reluctantly suppressed her mind and continued to tie the knot.
Early the next morning, Lin Jinrong went to the He Le Hall to say hello, but saw that the He Le Hall was packed with people. Old Mrs. Lin was sitting on the couch, looking neither happy nor unhappy as usual. Zhou
Lin Wu was indifferent, Luo Shi was beaming with joy, Tao Shi was dispensable, Lin Wu's face was full of thoughts, Lin Qi and Lin Liu were whispering at the side. Several cousins-in-law were absent-minded, Lin Sanshao and Lin Sishao were huddled together.
In the corner, his expression was as if he was mourning for his heir.
Lin Jinrong asked Lin Jinyin: "What's going on?"
Lin Jinyin whispered: "I'm talking about going to my aunt's house to celebrate being a guest."
The official reception for the Lu family will be two days later, but Lin Yuzhen told people early in the morning that there were many people and things going on that day, which prevented her family from talking and getting close, making them uncomfortable. She prepared several tables of good food and invited her mother-in-law's family to come and play today.
.In fact, it means to step down the steps for the mother's family - the two sons of the Lin family are inferior to Lu Jian. At that time, the Lin family could not help but be embarrassed when meeting other congratulators, but it was impossible not to celebrate. That's why they adopted such a compromise.
The way is, I have been there today, and it doesn’t matter whether I go during the main banquet or not.
Lin Yuzhen was considerate, but looking at Mr. Zhou's appearance, she was not very happy. After all, although Mr. Lin was also at the bottom, he was the one who had passed the exam twice. It was a bit embarrassing in comparison. On the other hand, Mr. Luo didn't care at all.
Fourth Young Master Lin looked angry because he failed to pass the exam, but he was still in high spirits, looking a little happier than Mrs. Lin.
Lin Jinrong secretly claimed to be surprised and asked Lin Jinyin in a low voice: "If the fourth brother failed to pass the exam, wouldn't the second aunt and the second uncle be angry?" Lin Yuzhen did the same thing that year. She didn't pay attention at the time, so she couldn't remember the details of everyone.
What was the reaction? I just remember that I went to Lu’s house and didn’t see Lu Yan. It was said that Lu Yan had something to do and stayed in Taiming Mansion.
Lin Jinyin was slightly disdainful: "Can you expect a duck to fly into the sky?"
Lin Jinrong couldn't help laughing. It was an unexpected surprise that the duck could fly into the sky, but it was reasonable if it couldn't fly. In this way, the second room was really open-minded. Seeing Luo Shi's joy, I'm afraid he was also really happy for Lu Yan.
There was no other reason than that she had already regarded Lu Yan as something in her pocket. It was normal for the mother-in-law to be happy that her son-in-law had a promising future. As a result, her sense of crisis was slightly lowered.
Lin Liu saw Lin Jinrong smiling happily from the side, so he came over and said with a smile: "What makes Fourth Sister so happy?"
Lin Jinrong replied casually: "I heard that I'm going to be a guest. I'm glad."
Hearing this, Lin Liu carefully looked at Lin Jinrong's expression and said, "Yes, you haven't been to your aunt's house for a long time." During these days, Lu Yun had dated the sisters several times, and every time Lin Jinrong used various methods to
She couldn't give up the excuse. Everyone knew the reason and no one forced her. Why was she so happy today when she heard that she was going to be a guest at the Lu family?
Lin Jinrong nodded and didn't say much. Lin Liu thought for a while and smiled: "You are too withdrawn and you never want to go out with us. Every time Lu Yun always asks you why you don't go. By the way.
, Lu Lun asked me last time, why I never see you?"
Lin Jinrong said calmly: "Does he think no one will bully him?"
Lin Liu then laughed: "Yeah, that fat black guy doesn't know what he is doing all day long. He is getting darker and fatter, but he is not getting any taller. He almost got into a fight with Qimei last time and lost him.
A piece of smelly mud just dug out from the pond made Qimei's skirt dirty, and she was beaten again."
Although he is not tall now, he will be a tall and strong man in the future. Lin Jinrong thought of Lu Lun's naughty things and couldn't help but laugh from the bottom of his heart: "He just doesn't remember to beat him. Why did he talk to Qimei again?"
What's going on?"
Seeing her interest, Lin Liu started talking: "He hit us with a slingshot on the tree. Didn't he grow taller? Qimei laughed at him because he was short, black and fat..."
Lin Wu said coldly from the side: "He just called Qimei short, white and fat, so some people got upset. In fact, he just told the truth."
The twin sisters are generally tall and short. They are smaller and plumper than Lin Jinrong and Lin Wu. The old man looked at them and said they were happy, but in fact they hated this the most. Lin Wu's words were regarded as stepping on Lin Liu.
Lin Liu's face suddenly changed. He stared at Lin Wu for a moment and suddenly smiled: "Fifth sister, I wonder if my cousin from the Zhou family will come back to meet the one or two candidates for this year's Taiming Mansion examination."
?”
The resentment on Lin Wu's face suddenly added another layer, he turned his head and sneered: "How could I know?"
"I will definitely go. Scholars all over the world love to hang out with talented people who are also relatives. Maybe they will be of the same age in the future, so I will definitely go." Lin Liu said this with great certainty and walked away complacently.
.
Lin Wu's eyes were reddish, and he lowered his head sadly, looking aggrieved and sad.
Two cousins, one was in a good mood and the other was in a depressed mood. Lin Jinrong saw this and couldn't help but wonder to herself, could there be something happening that she didn't know about? Maybe the second house and Lin Yuzhen had a tacit understanding, and the eldest house had a tacit understanding.
Seeing that there was no hope, he gave up and planned to allocate Lin Wu to Zhou Mai? After all, Zhou Mai was also a person who had passed the local examination in Songzhou. He was also considered a young talent, and he was steady and generous. Although the Zhou family was a little far away,
But it's relatively simpler than the Lu family, and it's my mother's family. All in all, it's actually a pretty good marriage.
If Erfang and Lin Yuzhen really have some kind of tacit understanding, then it would be a very happy thing. Thinking of this, Lin Jinrong felt a little better. Even looking at those people who used to feel boring
, I don’t think its appearance is disgusting anymore.
The rivalry between people was so irritating that Mr. Lin refused to see Mr. Lu, saying that he was not feeling well, so he only asked someone to bring a precious frozen fish brain Duan Inkstone to Lu Yan as a congratulatory gift. Third Young Master Lin and Fourth Young Master Lin also
She was too embarrassed to go and said she wanted to stay at home and study. So Mrs. Lin went out and led her family, old and young, toward the Lu family. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come.
