Xu Xiaolangjun sighed, this is not a matter of jealousy, the key is to admit that others are better than him: "My cousin is also capable enough. If nothing else, I have so many friends. If it were my younger brother who just handles the relationship, it would be enough."
I have a terrible headache.”
This is where I miss my cousin Lin. Xu Xiaolangjun sees it very clearly. This is also the ambition of our children.
Isn't it the difference between Zhou Lan and his cousin Lin? Zhou Lan comforted his sixth brother-in-law: "Don't worry, once we have my cousin's knowledge, we won't be worse than him."
Xu Xiaolangjun felt that the third brother-in-law was too humble. After being with the third brother-in-law for a long time, he still knew the third brother-in-law’s ability, which was no worse than that of cousin Lin: “I will work hard and won’t let my cousin fall too far behind. I won’t let the third brother-in-law either.
Too much has fallen.”
Zhou Lan really had nothing to say to his brother-in-law: "It's us." I was also jealous of my cousin's ability.
Xu Xiaolang said in his heart that if the third brother-in-law insisted on saying this, then just think so, and then comforted the third brother-in-law: "This is not our home court. When we get to Baoding Mansion, we are not much worse than Cousin Lin."
After saying this, not to mention Zhou Lan, Xu Xiaolangjun himself felt a little guilty. After all, he was still far behind.
Cousin Lin turned around and saw his cousin and his brother-in-law huddled together, muttering about how close they were.
He raised his eyebrows and said, "What are you two talking about on my happy day?" He was jealous. He was obviously his cousin. In the past, who could get in between their cousins? Humph.
Looking at his style, Zhou Lan and Xu Xiaolangjun were both inferior to him in terms of grade. He said with a sour mouth, "I don't dare to lower my rank."
How wicked! What kind of occasion is this? You two did it on purpose. Aren’t you sincerely making people unhappy?
Cousin Lin laughed angrily and said to the two of them, "How can you, your brothers-in-law?" If it wasn't a big day, he would have to deal with them.
Zhou Lan walked over with a smile and cupped his hands towards cousin Lin: "I haven't congratulated my cousin yet. Congratulations to my cousin on the wedding and the bridal chamber."
Xu Xiaolangjun followed behind and said congratulations, saying good things as if they were free of charge, not to mention that the atmosphere was really good.
Cousin Lin has known for a long time that the two brothers-in-law have always been in cahoots with each other. Today's wedding is very tight, so don't worry about it.
However, Cousin Lin was happy that his cousin could stay in the Hanlin Academy. In fact, it was not a surprise. After all, his uncle had already reached the fourth rank when he was alive, which was not a level that ordinary people could access.
The wealth that my uncle left to my cousin is much more valuable intangible than tangible. Cousin Lin has always known this in his heart.
It's a pity that my aunt never pays more attention to it, otherwise my cousin's path will be smoother, and the Zhou family will be even more short-sighted.
As for his father, Cousin Lin doesn't want to say more. He has come to this point.
Zhou Lan looked at how his cousin was distracted on such a day: "What are you thinking, cousin? If I look back and see this expression, my cousin won't get on the sedan."
Xu Xiaolangjun joked: "No need to worry, cousin, the third brother-in-law has helped my cousin prepare several volumes of good products." After saying this, he winked.
If it weren't for this action, others might not be able to imagine what he was talking about, but with this action, the atmosphere exploded.
A group of gentlemen laughed loudly. It was obvious that everyone understood what was going on. Cousin Lin was going to be pissed to death, these wicked people.
He turned to look at Zhou Lan: "My cousin has taken the trouble, and my cousin has accepted it. It's better for my cousin to take it back and study it." Does he need this thing?
The gentlemen on the side started shouting: "Brother Lin has someone in the house, so you don't have to worry about Brother Lin."
He is very knowledgeable and a man. When he talks about this topic, he always makes a lot of noise. The atmosphere is really heated up.
If the bride hears this, I'm afraid she won't get on the sedan chair.
Cousin Lin glared at Xu Xiaolangjun, who was the first to make noises. Who would have thought that this person was a rotten person: "Xu Xiaolangjun just got married. It would be better for me to give Xu Xiaolangjun a beauty than to study hard on his own."
Xu Xiaolangjun immediately pulled Zhou Lan: "Third brother-in-law, my cousin is harming me."
Cousin Lin: "Shameful."
Zhou Lan protected his sixth brother-in-law: "Ahem, we come from a small place. We are used to being embarrassed and have a good heart. My cousin should keep it to himself."
A group of husbands laughed at their henpecked brothers, which further heated up the atmosphere.
Zhou Lan didn't feel ashamed at all: "What's wrong with being henpecked? Being henpecked has its own benefits. It's better than having to fight both ways after you return home."
Mr. Xu Xiaolang followed up and said, "Yes, it's enough for us to be nice to my wife, and we can save money. And my wife's kindness to us, huh, you don't understand."
Zhou Lan then nodded vigorously, and his cousin Lin, who he considered close to him, muttered: "A bunch of prodigal men, what are you happy about? It would be great to save some money for your wife and children."
Seeing how proud the two brothers-in-law were, cousin Lin almost kicked them out of the wedding party. They were so unsociable.
Cousin Lin can accept that his cousin is not a womanizer, and that his friendship with his younger siblings is unusual, but he absolutely cannot accept that his cousin is not a womanizer, and it is just to save money. It is too shameful.
Zhou Lan saw that his cousin looked wrong and immediately distanced himself: "Cousin, don't forget the great joy today."
Okay, let's talk about it later, welcoming the bride is more important. Looking at these two terrible things, Cousin Lin just ignored them.
Jiang Changxi took the Sixth Lady to have tea and chat with the family members of the Lin Mansion, which was very pleasant.
However, she can also feel the difference. In the past, when she came to the Lin Mansion, her aunt entertained her. Sometimes when her aunt was inconvenient, her unmarried cousins would entertain her.
Things are different now. The cousins-in-law and aunts in the house, as well as the cousins who are returning to their parents' home to pay tribute, all come over to talk to each other. This is the honor of a husband and his wife.
A woman's identity and status are all tied to men. It's impossible not to admit this.
Lady Six: "The Lin family members are really kind."
Jiang Changxi: "That's because you haven't seen my old aunt before."
There was a look of reluctance to say more. Just this expression let Lady Jiang Liu know that every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite, and every family has people who are difficult to get along with.
When my mother-in-law, Mrs. Lin, got married, it was not like this, and her relatives were not as kind to her as they are now.
Jiang Changxi pulled the Sixth Lady: "Since you got engaged to your brother-in-law, it has been a smooth journey, and you have seen a lot of human relationships. You are quite lucky. But you can't be mean-spirited."
Mrs. Jiang Liu: "Third sister, I don't know anything. Don't worry, I'm not easy to coax."
Jiang Changxi nodded relieved.
Lady Jiang Liu smiled and said, "Third sister, you actually believe me."
Jiang Changxi: "I believe in my aunt." After all, the children taught by my aunt will not be stupid.
