When it got completely dark, Ji Yuan's dinner party began in the courtyard where they lived.
Several large tables were set up.
Before the food was served, several people from Linjia Village started drinking.
Lin Youcai also took a few sips. He was really moved when he saw Lin Shucheng's family sitting at the main table, sitting with Magistrate Ji, General Gu, and the lieutenants.
"Hey, I just said that Erya is a lucky treasure. Xueqing and Lao San are also worthy of it. Oh, it's a pity that they can't take the imperial examination. It would be great if they could take the imperial examination. Let Lao San take the exam with him. How can he give birth to such a lucky and smart child? My daughter, the third child will definitely pass the exam."
"I knew it was right to follow Erya. No, it will bring us some hard food together. Normally, we wouldn't even dare to think about a stable life!"
Lin Youcai glared at the kid, "Zhuxi, you should be thinking that from now on, you and Erya will have to study and learn to read together. Why are you just staring at these pieces of flesh in front of you?"
They really didn't expect that one day they would be able to sit and have dinner with a high official, and they would treat themselves as guests, be polite, and say that if you need anything in the future, feel free to contact them.
They knew that this was all for the sake of Lin Jinyue's family, and they certainly couldn't just come and look for them. How could the magistrate of a county have so much time to take care of them?
But they were ordinary people who had fled. They didn't dare to express their anger when they saw the official, and they had to kneel down. How could they have imagined that one day, they would be able to get a promise from others.
If this group of people knew that Lin Shucheng had just rejected the olive branch extended by General Gu a few days ago, they would definitely be patted on the thigh.
On the other side of the wine table, Lin Shucheng was already tipsy.
Lin Jinyue also took a few sips of the fruit wine, but Jiang Yun didn't let her drink more.
Ji Yuan, Gu Shao, and several military masters had no airs, and they seemed to be brothers with Lin Shucheng and his son Lin Xueqing.
Ji Yuan saved his head and his official position because Jiang Yun and Lin Jinyue helped a lot. He was extra attentive to Lin Jinyue and regarded her as his own daughter.
Gu Shao truly admired Lin Jinyue. Although he scolded her father behind her back for being cunning and cunning, he admired this family.
However, Lin Jinyue was ten years old, so he had to avoid suspicion and could only drink with her father.
Lin Shucheng didn't notice Gu Shao's admiring gaze.
Everyone's attention was drawn away.
One of the military men present here felt better after drinking Jiang Yun's medicine. When he got excited, he took two more sips of wine.
Then he talked nonsense there: "Your village is full of good people, they saved my life!"
As he said that, the military master stood up and put his arms around Lin Xueqing's neck: "Brother, your village is full of good people. When I come back from the battlefield and achieve military merit, I must marry a girl from your village. That sentence What do you mean, I should pledge my life to you for saving my life, and wait until I achieve military success and buy a house in the capital..."
Everyone was very happy.
It's really ridiculous for a tall man of 1.8 meters to say anything about his body.
Speaking of marriage, Ji Yuan rolled his eyes and looked at Lin Jinyue who was secretly drinking, and his thoughts became more active.
Ji Yuan was so busy in the past few days that he hit the back of his head with his feet, and there was a knife hanging on his head, so he didn't pay much attention to how Lin Jinyue and his family were getting along.
This is what he just discovered.
Everyone looked at the drunken military master who wanted to marry him, but Ji Yuan looked at Lin Jinyue and his father.
No, General Gu asked the Lin family if they could join the military camp, and even promised them high-ranking officials and generous salaries. What did these two people want from their wife and children?
General Gu asked if he could cooperate with their Zhennan Army and trade large quantities of medicinal herbs in the future. What did Mrs. Jiang want her daughter to do?
Moreover, while the adults were still talking, it was already very difficult to let the female doll sit at the main table. How could Lin Jinyue dare to interrupt General Gu and refuse?
She said she was afraid that her parents and brother would be tired and wouldn't let her go.
As a result, the Lin family actually listened to the little baby and stopped going!
This wealth and wealth hit them on the head.
Don’t even want it? !
The more Ji Yuan thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong and remembered the details of how their family got along.
Thinking back carefully, Lin Shucheng and his wife really doted on Lin Jinyue to no end. The ten-year-old farm girl didn't know how to cook, so Lin Shucheng cooked whatever she wanted to eat. After she tasted it, she even said to add more salt and sauce. Facts, this tongue is called a mouth.
His nephew, the eldest son of the Lingnan governor's family, was not as clever as her.
That's the eldest son of a fourth-grade official's family!
He also thought that if Lin Jinyue casually mentioned what she wanted, Lin Shucheng would hire someone to go to a nearby county to buy it without even blinking an eye.
This girl also had a sweet mouth and knew how to do things. Ji Yuan thought, if she could become a good person...
Ji Yuan said cheerfully: "I think your daughter is about to get married?"
Lin Shucheng was already three times drunk. When he heard about his daughter's marriage, he sobered up and said hurriedly: "Hey, there's no rush. My daughter has suffered such a serious crime, how can we rush to get her married?"
Lin Shucheng didn't want his daughter to marry an ancient person casually. He would rather his daughter not get married than let her suffer that fate.
In ancient times, there was a strict hierarchy and it was a cannibal society, specializing in eating women.
How could I let my daughter suffer like that?
Mainly, there was no such thing as falling in love in ancient times. It was all about getting married. How could he dare to be casual?
Even if the other person is a good person, there are seven aunts and eight aunts in the family. The mother-in-law sets the rules at the top and takes care of the baby at the bottom. After two years without a baby, the husband still had to keep a concubine.
Don’t want to take a concubine?
It is unfilial to be unable to bear children.
In ancient times, it was considered too late for a woman to get married at the age of 17 or 18. As soon as she got married, she had to prepare to have children. Her daughter was not yet underage!
The more he thought about it, the more Lin Shucheng shook his head, "No rush, no rush, my daughter is still young, so it doesn't make any difference. Don't think too much about it. It's not that our family is arrogant, it's that I am just such a precious daughter."
It looked like he was afraid that someone would steal his precious baby bump.
Lin Jinyue immediately approached her father and stuffed a piece of delicate pastry into her father's mouth.
Her mouth seemed to be smeared with honey: "I know that dad is the best. I can't find a better dad than you in the whole country. I don't want to get married. I want to stay with my parents all my life."
Ji Yuan did not give up. He was originally planning to introduce his son, but he gritted his teeth and introduced his nephew: "Hey, don't be in a hurry to get married. Let's settle it down first. It's okay to wait five, six, seven, eight years."
"Brother Lin, let me tell you, my nephew is really good. My eldest brother Zhengqiu was originally the governor of Yangzhou. He was dissatisfied with King Jing, so he came to Lingnan. My nephew, who was born in middle school at the age of twelve, took the exam the next year. To be a scholar means that there will be no imperial examination in the future, otherwise you will definitely pass the examination, and your future will be bright."
