Fang Qunqun made arrangements at home and went to pick up Lin Zhixiu.
Lin Zhixiu waited at An's house until the flowers were almost withered, and she and Ren Baihui began to worry, before Fang Qunqun came.
After getting in the car, seeing Fang Qunqun's unfathomable look on his face, he asked unhappily, "Fifth aunt, why did it take you so long to pick me up? It's such an hour, and everyone has left me to eat! We are so
Aren't you going to tell me if you come back late? What have you been doing?!"
Fang Qunqun looked at Lin Zhixiu and wanted to share this matter with her...but after thinking about it from all aspects, she felt that she still couldn't say it now.
He faltered, "I'm sorry, Xiu'er, I had a great time chatting with that lady, but it took a long time before I knew it!"
Lin Zhixiu said angrily, "You're coaxing me again, it's already dark! Who has guests at such a long time but doesn't care about the food? Please tell me the truth!"
Fang Qunqun quickly coaxed her, "Really not! After I came out, I took a detour back to my parents' house to talk about the matter! My dad cooked beef bone noodle soup today and I didn't even have time to eat it, so I came to pick you up right away."
Lin Zhixiu: "Humph, from the look of you, something must be up to you! Just don't tell me! I don't even know about it!"
Fang Qunqun endured it and smiled, but didn't say anything.
Lin Zhixiu waited for a while, but she didn't pick up the blame, so she had to say, "Fifth Aunt, let me tell you, like Xiu'er, you have no backer in the Lin family, so you must be careful in your words and deeds! If something happens,
You can't help your mother's family, but you are dragging them down!"
Fang Qunqun said proudly, "Girl Xiu, do you believe what you say? I am the one who is cautious about what I say and do in the Lin family, right? When did you become cautious about what you said and do?"
Lin Zhixiu rolled his eyes at her, "You are jumping up and down, how are you better than me?" He snorted and ignored her!
This niece has always been so kind to her. Fang Qunqun felt a little guilty for treating her like this. After a while, she said, "Xiu'er, something good happened to my aunt's family, but it hasn't been implemented. I can't say anything yet. What if...
...Failed to realize it? Isn’t that happiness in vain?”
I haven't reported for my father's position yet, and I don't know what the yard is like. If something goes wrong, I would be happy for nothing, wouldn't it make people laugh?
Lin Zhixiu said, "Okay, if something good happens, just go and enjoy it! You don't need to tell me!"
Fang Qunqun persuaded in a low voice, "Really, Xiu'er, this matter will wait until the day after tomorrow! I will know what the situation is the day after tomorrow, and I will definitely tell you when the time comes!"
Lin Zhixiu said, "It's up to you!"
Fang Qunqun coaxed her, "Hao Xiu'er, I have something to go out for these two days! When I get back, tell your aunt that I will go out several times in a row. Don't be angry with me, I will take you with me every time, okay?
good?!"
When Lin Zhixiu heard this, her eyes lit up: "Good fifth aunt. If you bring Xiu'er out, Xiu'er won't be angry. Otherwise, I won't think about you at all in the future!"
Fang Qunqun quickly agreed.
The two of them made up!
When I entered the house, I didn't even ask the kitchen for dinner. Coming back so late without eating would really attract attention.
Lin Zhixiu returned to the house and sat down comfortably after washing up. "I originally wanted to send a message to my uncle, but it's late today. My fifth aunt can still go out, so I'll follow her and see my uncle in person.
Brother Feng. Alas, I haven’t been to Boss An’s place for a long time, and I don’t know how Mrs. Liu is doing now. It’s too difficult to go out, and I can’t do many things!”
The next day, Fang Qunqun was restless at home and came to Lin Zhixiu twice, but always hesitated to speak. Every time a reply came to her lips, she quickly slipped away. Lin Zhixiu didn't know what she was doing, so she simply
Ignore her.
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the courtyard, and Xiyu ran in. "Miss, Miss, good news! Good news!"
Lin Zhixiu said, "What good news?!"
Xiyu said, "Uncle Erfangsong, you passed the exam!"
When Lin Zhixiu heard this, she was overjoyed and said, "Really?!"
Xiyu said, "Isn't that right? The results are released today. Our old man sent people to follow the people from the second house to see the results early in the morning. When he came back, he said he had won! The ranking was quite high! The old man was very happy and ordered people to buy it.
Candy and firecrackers are also exchanged for wedding money! We said that we want the two families to be together and have a good time!"
Lin Zhixiu said, "Amitabha! I was still thinking about this two days ago, but I forgot about it yesterday! This is really great news! Let's go to grandma's place and have a look! Dongyun, please ask someone to talk to the second old lady and
Songtangke said, don’t be embarrassed, don’t be brave, just go ahead happily if you give me whatever you want!”
Dongyun smiled and agreed.
When Mrs. Lin Er received the letter, she was so happy that she burst into tears. She hugged Lin Song and cried bitterly. She took him to the ancestral tablet and talked to her ancestors.
Although Lin Song felt that he had done well in the exam, the more he felt like this, the more he felt uneasy. Now a stone fell to the ground, looking at the memorial tablets of his grandfather and parents, and seeing his grandmother's excitement, he was also in tears.
This kind of thing is worthy of joy no matter who it is in. Mr. Lin was in high spirits, and Lin's personality was the icing on the cake. As soon as the father and son discussed it, they started to get busy. He sent Lin Ge to invite Lin Song's ancestors and grandsons to come over, and arranged to organize celebration things.
.
The old man personally talked to Lin Song for a long time. Lin Ji also praised him for a long time, and the father and son directly gave him a banknote of five thousand taels.
Lin Song had received Lin Zhixiu's suggestion. In fact, he was not willing to take the money, but he believed in Lin Zhixiu, so he pretended to refuse. At the insistence of Mr. Lin, Lin Song accepted.
Although he won the prize, he will still have to spend a lot of money in the future. For example, his medicine for next year will cost a lot of money.
Mr. Lin said that the shadow of autumn hunting has not yet been completely eliminated, so it will be lively again during the Chinese New Year. He also promised that all the expenses for spring next year will be covered by the big house.
Lin was also very generous in this regard. When he was about to enter the palace, he talked about it with the emperor. The emperor liked to hear such things. He also educated Ling Ge by the way! Ling Ge has a really good temperament, although
He slanders this father: I don’t even have any fame, so don’t criticize me. I am still a scholar after all!
When Old Mrs. Lin saw that the two old ladies, who were so proud of themselves, looked several years younger, she secretly resented that it was Lin Zhixiu, a damn girl, who was meddling in other people's business. Otherwise, how could Lin Song have the strength to attend the Qiu Wei Festival?
According to the spirit of the second old lady in the past, she will definitely have to be embarrassed now. But Lin Song is in good health and can win the imperial examination, which benefits Lin Zhixiu. After all, she is the granddaughter of the eldest family, so she can be regarded as a conspirator.
The glory of the big room... If Lin Song really gets Jinshi, he will also need the help of the big room.
Moreover, the eldest grandson won the election, and most of her wishes were fulfilled. She became much more peaceful, so her attitude and language were quite to the point.
He especially affirmed the old man's help to Lin Song.
But Mrs. Lin, this matter itself is not to her liking, so no matter what you say, she doesn’t like it. She added a few words of courtesy with a slight smile, and that was it, but she started talking about it with Mrs. Lin Er.
Lin Zhixuan: "Brother Song has passed the examination, so do you also want to think about Xuan'er's matter?"
The two old ladies were stunned.
Old Mrs. Lin said, "After all, she is in the flower season. Entering the nunnery is enough to delay her. If she doesn't come out, won't she become an old girl? By then, even if she comes out, how can she be settled?
?After all, she is your biological granddaughter. She has done something wrong, so she can be punished. It is not allowed to continue like this! In my opinion, just for this occasion, just take her back!"
When Lin Zhixiu heard this, she thought, this dead old lady is really bad!
Old Mrs. Lin Er was so happy that she poured cold water on her...
How could she not love this granddaughter? She had dreamed about it so many times. However, she was worried that Lin Song was going to make a big effort and have a granddaughter next year. What would happen if Lin Zhixuan came back and made him uninterested in taking the exam?
He could only murmur, "When I sent her away...it was said that I would pick her back up after Brother Song's spring next year. It would be hard to tell the nunnery then..."
Old Mrs. Lin said unceremoniously, "Send it away and pick it up, can you listen to the nunnery? That's not what my family wants to do. It won't cost the nunnery money! I thought at the beginning, I didn't agree with this! It's just a hindrance.
Since our families are separated, I can't interfere too much! You can imagine how a big girl's family will be sent there in a safe manner! Zhixuan's father and mother died early. It doesn't hurt to know that your daughter is in such a situation.
What? In the future, when you go underground and see them, you will just punish her because she made a mistake, so that you can hold your head high and hold your chest high. Isn't it a shame?"
When Mrs. Lin Er heard this, her whole body softened.
Lin Zhixiu knew that it was inappropriate to interrupt at this time, so she could only secretly hate this old lady. She was so bad. No, she had to find something to do for her!
Old Mrs. Lin saw this and felt a little happy. She smiled and said, "Otherwise...if you are afraid that she will affect Brother Song's homework at home, let her live here with me. Wutong Courtyard, Brother Hui's Wife
My daughter has already been packed out. I took a look at it and found it to be quite good. Let Xuan'er live in it! Even if we separate the house, we can't write two Lins in one sentence. She is already this age, one or two years old.
It’s time to go out. If the eldest girl lives there, she can find a more respectable marriage!?”
These messy news made Mrs. Lin Er feel dizzy and whispered, "Then I'll go back and discuss it with Brother Song."
Old Mrs. Lin looked disgusted, "You can't decide on such a thing? What is Brother Song busy with now? Can he take care of this matter? Moreover, if you ask him, what can he say? He can say no.
If he lets his sister come back, how will people talk about him if word spreads? It blocks his sister's way of life. He is a scholar... even if he is a Jinshi, can he be wiped out? After all this rumor, can he still be a human being? You
Yeah! You are so smart and confused at the same time."
Old Mrs. Lin Er lowered her head and said nothing. After a while she said, "I'll think about it when I go back."
Mrs. Lin said yes, Mrs. Lin Er said goodbye and left.
Old Mrs. Lin picked up the tea bowl, took a sip of the steaming tea, and raised the corners of her mouth slightly, which was quite satisfying!
