Rebirth of the Son Raiders

The little wolf cub searched for a long time, but he couldn't find the person he wanted to see.

Thinking that it was hallucinating, it suddenly fell back on the futon with some disappointment, stretched out its small paws, picked up the ancient jade that had rolled aside, and brought it back into its arms, touching it carefully to confirm that it was intact.

After kicking his hind legs, the little wolf cub put himself in a comfortable position, lying on his side on the futon, staring at the door with his round eyes, as if he was waiting for someone.

Seeing its cute and somewhat pitiful appearance, Lin Yanhong's heart softened, so he just squatted by the edge of the pool and stared at the little guy, wishing he could reach out and touch it.

The little wolf cub was lying on the futon with Gu Yu in his arms, and he narrowed his eyes after a while.

Two days ago, it was so sad that it didn't think about eating or drinking, and it couldn't sleep at night. When it came to its senses, its body was already exhausted.

Now when alone (the wolf) was alone, the room was very quiet, and it couldn't bear the drowsiness, so it just fell into a deep sleep.

Seeing this, Lin Yanhong sighed, and softly called its name again. Although the little guy moved his ears and paws this time, he didn't wake up after all, and seemed to be sleeping soundly.

Stretching out his hand to touch the surface of the water, he saw circles of ripples swaying away. Lin Yanhong can be sure that this is definitely not his dream.

——He should have seen the real situation of Li Jingcheng through his own ancient jade and the copied ancient jade... Maybe it is because there is a certain connection between the original and the replica, so there is such a magical effect .

Lin Yanhong slowly opened his eyes, looked at Amber who was dozing off not far away, and decided to find another chance to try again.

When he arrived at the next post station, Lin Yanhong asked his personal maid to find another piece of his own jade. On the surface, he was playing with the jade for nothing, but in fact he copied a new piece of jade with mustard seeds.

After the meal, he called Xuan Qing to his side, and told him: "This piece of jade has been covered with dust for a long time, and it seems to have lost its brilliance. I heard that being illuminated by the moonlight can make it absorb the essence of the moon. Please put it on for me." On the stone table in the yard, take a look at it for half an hour."

Xuan Qing didn't doubt that he was there, so she took the initiative to ask Ying: "Young Master, I'm afraid it won't be of much use for half an hour. My mother has to dry the quilt for half a day before drying it!"

Lin Yanhong originally just wanted to try, no matter whether he succeeds or not, it is impossible for Xuan Qing to stay outside for so long. Hearing him say this, he smiled and said: "Let's see first, if it doesn't work, why bother to spend more time..."

When Xuan Qing went to the yard with the copied jade pendant, Lin Yanhong also returned to his room in the inn. He sat by the bed, took out the original jade pendant, closed his eyes and began to sense.

After a while, he opened his eyes with disappointment.

He couldn't see Xuan Qing's appearance in the yard through the jade pendant in his hand.

——It seems that not everything can achieve the same effect... Maybe there are only one pair of treasures in this world that can transmit sound for thousands of miles...

Although he came to such a conclusion, Lin Yanhong was not disappointed for too long.

As long as he thought of the ancient jade he gave away, allowing him to see Li Jingcheng's recent situation, he felt lucky enough.

Because of this, although the two of them could not meet each other, he could feel at ease knowing what happened around Li Jingcheng.

Thinking of this, Lin Yanhong stood up and walked into the courtyard.

Xuan Qing was sitting at the stone table staring at the jade pendant that was "drying" the moon, when she found her young master coming over, she quickly asked, "Master, why did you come out? It's just time for a stick of incense to be dried..."

He had been staring at Yu Pei just now, but felt that nothing had happened.

Lin Yanhong nodded to show that he knew, then he picked up the jade pendant on the stone table and pretended to observe it carefully facing the moon.

The result of this observation is naturally "disappointing".

He put his hand down and laughed at himself: "I'm also fanciful. If there is such a good thing in this world, those who buy and sell jade wares just need to put their things under the moonlight every day, wouldn't they be able to get countless good jades?"

Xuan Qing was simple-minded, didn't hear Lin Yanhong's "self-deprecating", thought he was feeling lost because of this matter, and quickly comforted him: "Young master, how can those merchants who buy and sell jade articles be compared with you... You have been to Huayin Temple! The Buddha blesses you to take care of your body, and will naturally bless you to get beautiful jade!"

Lin Yanhong: "..." Xiao Xuanqing, if the Buddha has to take care of such things, I'm afraid it will be very tiring.

Lin Yanhong's health is getting better and better, and the people around him are happier than they are free from their illnesses. Aunt Chun now worships in the direction of Wushan and the west every day. Put a Buddhist altar in the car.

Xuan Qing is the son of Aunt Chun, who grew up with Lin Yanhong and thought of him wholeheartedly, so naturally she was so excited that she blamed all this on miracles.

In his heart, his young master is a person favored by God and Buddha, so everything should go smoothly.

Lin Yanhong took the jade pendant back and asked Xuan Qing to go back to the room to rest, while he stood in the courtyard for a while, looking up at the moon.

At this time, it was not far from July [-]th, because it was the middle of the month, and the bright moon in the sky was getting rounder, looking big and bright.

Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to Yunyang City and Lin Mansion, Lin Yanhong would see his father, grandparents, Mrs. Zhen, Lin Yanxing, and Lin Jun again when he returned home.

And what happened on Wushan was like a dream, gradually drifting away from him, maybe it won't be long before I can no longer remember the details clearly.

"A pot of wine among the flowers, drinking alone without a blind date. Raise your glass to invite the bright moon, and the shadows will form three people..."

He recited half a poem in a low voice, and after finishing reading, he began to think about it.

This song "Drinking Alone under the Moon" was also written impromptu by Lin Yanxing. In Lin Yanhong's "last life", his younger brother first appeared in the lotus appreciation poetry meeting, and then came out with such good lines one after another, and the scenery was infinite for a while.

It's just that in this life, because of what happened in Zezhiyuan, even if Lin Yanxing wrote "Drinking Alone Under the Moon", no one would believe that a 12-year-old boy could write such a poetic and profound poem.

It's just to make those who think that Lin Yanxing hired someone to write for him more firmly believe in their own guesses.

Maybe it's because living in Wushan is so comfortable that even the worry of life can sometimes be forgotten, so that Lin Yanhong suddenly feels tired when he thinks about the various things in the Lin family that he is about to face.

——No wonder people often say that it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality... I am used to living a good life, and I almost forget how to face the "hard" life.

After standing under the moon for a while, Lin Yanhong turned and went back to his room.

They had to get up early the next day and go on their way. Lin Yanhong didn't intend to waste his eyes reading any more, so he changed his clothes and prepared to rest.

Before going to bed, Lin Yanhong entered Guyu, intending to see how the little wolf cub was doing before going to sleep.

The mist on the water pool gradually dispersed like the first time, and a picture that made Lin Yanhong feel familiar and intimate appeared on the water surface.

The little wolf cub seems to have slept more during the day, so it looks more energetic at the moment. It is bouncing around on the futon on the bed, very lively.

In the center of the futon in the middle was the ancient jade left by Lin Yanhong. The little guy ran around it, stopping for a while while running, turning his head to look in the middle, occasionally making a sound of "oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" Mumbling something.

The whole process is like a wizard holding a rain ceremony, and it looks really interesting.

Lin Yanhong was amused by the little guy, and smiled, and was about to get closer to get a better look.

However, at this moment, the door of his room in Huayin Temple was suddenly opened from the outside, and it was not Master Wujue who walked in, but a burly man in a cloak!

The man was extremely tall and burly, and he hurried to the bed in three or two steps.

When Lin Yanhong was frightened, he only thought that a stranger broke into the inner courtyard, and he didn't care about being discovered, so he exclaimed the name of the little wolf cub.

"Jing Cheng, be careful!"

Originally, he thought that his voice would remind the little wolf cub that no matter how bad it was, it could scare the people who came, and made him feel scruples, so as to give the shadow guards outside some time to rush in to the Savior.

Who knew that the little wolf cub seemed to be unable to hear his voice, and was still immersed in his "seeking Hong ceremony", and the man also went straight to the bed as if he didn't hear him, and stretched out his hand to the little wolf cub. !

Lin Yanhong was so excited that he almost threw himself into the pool, so as to hug the cub and prevent him from being caught.

At this time, the little guy finally found the comer.

It raised its small head, and looked at the "uninvited guest" with lake green eyes.

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Seeing that the man was about to catch the little wolf cub, Lin Yanhong's expected vigilance, roaring, retreating and hiding of the little guy did not appear!

The little wolf cub not only didn't avoid it, but even jumped two steps forward, as if "throwing himself into a hug", and ran towards the man.

What was even more unexpected to Lin Yanhong was that the man stretched out his hand but didn't try to grab the wolf cub, but just touched its small head. The action was not gentle, but compared to its size, it was already considered light and light. .

Seeing this scene, Lin Yanhong was stunned for a while, but then he realized something and turned to look at the face of the person who came.

——A person who can walk into Li Jingcheng's room swaggeringly in front of the shadow guards, who can make Prince Yu not hide, and who is willing to get close to him... Who is this man, the answer is ready to come out!

Sure enough, when the man touched the little wolf cub's head, he put down the hood of his coat, revealing a face that Lin Yanhong thought seemed familiar.

I saw that his face was as tough as a knife, with sword eyebrows and star eyes, and his nose was as high as Xiao Shizi's, and he looked calm and majestic.

His thin lips remained straight all the time, without the slightest joy of seeing his own son, so even if he took off his coat and hat when he first came in, Lin Yanhong still could not help but regard him as a bad person.

After observing the man carefully, Lin Yanhong couldn't help sighing: So this is the father and son of the first emperor, King Yu who guarded the northern border, the little guy's father!

Lin Yanhong did not expect that before the other party summoned him, he would have the opportunity to see this legendary prince who was brave and skilled in battle.

Now just looking at his appearance, Lin Yanhong feels that the title of "Liang God of War" is well-deserved.

King Yu is completely different from the literati and scholars he saw around Lin Yanhong. He exudes power all over his body. Even though he is thousands of miles away, when Lin Yanhong sees King Yu, he still feels oppressed.

At this moment, Li Qiyu looked around cautiously and vigilantly, his eyes were sharp and startling.

Lin Yanhong was taken aback by the terrifying look in his eyes, and he took half a step back unconsciously. It was hard to realize that the other party should not be able to see him at all, and then he slowly relaxed.

When Lin Yanhong moved out of Huayin Temple, he naturally took his own cage with him.

The wing room, which was originally simply furnished, is now even more empty. Only the futons on the bed, the pens and ink and scattered papers on the desk by the window can prove that there are people living here.

Just because the room was empty, it was clear what he wanted to see. Li Qiyu scanned it intently, but found nothing suspicious. He only thought that he had maintained a high level of vigilance during the time at the border, and he was already a bit of a soldier.

He withdrew his gaze, turned to continue looking at the little wolf cub on the bed, and reached out to stroke its little head again.

The little wolf cub tilted his head and looked at his father with some doubts. He didn't know why the usual "meeting and touching heads" became twice.

However, its mind quickly focused on Li Qiyu, and it had no time to think about anything else.

At this time, Li Qiyu found the piece of ancient jade on the futon, thought to himself that it was left by the young man named Lin Yanhong to Jing Cheng, and planned to reach out to pick it up to have a look.

The little wolf cub discovered his intentions, immediately let go of his little fat legs, and ran to Gu Yu's side.

It lay down on the futon with lightning speed, just blocked the ancient jade with its belly, and then yelled at Li Qiyu for a while, as if to express, "This is my father. Neither can the king move!"

Li Qiyu: "..."

He had heard the reports from the shadow guards and Master Wu Jue's personal account, and Li Qiyu knew that Jing Cheng got along very well with that young man named Lin Yanhong.

The other party not only kept the secret that he accidentally learned in accordance with the "promise", but also patiently taught Jing Cheng, who was transformed into a human form, to learn to read and write, and accompanied him in life.

Li Qiyu felt very relieved after reading the calligraphy practiced by his son before, and also increased his affection for Lin Yanhong.

But just because they get along well and face each other day and night, after Lin Yanhong left, Jing Cheng was very sad about it for a while, and he is still depressed to this day.

It regards the jade left by the other party as its own treasure, and guards by it all day long, not letting anyone touch it.

Now that Li Qiyu saw the real situation, he realized that Lin Yanhong already had a high status in Jing Cheng's heart.

During the ten years of difficult growth of his son, it was rare for Li Qiyu to see it being so persistent, which made him sigh and at the same time feel a little worried.

Once people have what they want, they will become stronger and grow faster... This is of course a positive side.

But having a "beloved thing" means that there is a "soft" part in the heart, and this part becomes one's own weakness. Once the enemy finds out the clues in the future, it will become very dangerous.

Li Qiyu himself also has such "weaknesses", so he is very aware of the pros and cons.

Facing the one in Tiandu, he is always in a relatively passive position, and only on the battlefield far away from Tiandu can he wield the long sword in his hand, do whatever he wants, and do what he wants without any scruples things.

However, once a weakness in the body arises, it will not be automatically eliminated. With this "weakness", Li Qiyu walks cautiously and works everywhere.

He was afraid that Jing Cheng would do the same in the future, so he knew that letting Lin Yanhong go would take a huge risk, so after some hesitation, he decided to separate them temporarily.

Children are very forgetful, maybe within a few months, Jing Cheng will forget about Lin Yanhong, and forget that he was obsessed and dependent on him.

When it grows up a little more, can control the return of its ancestors, and its mind becomes more mature, when it faces Lin Yanhong again, it will not give it up without reservation.

……

When he saw Master Wujue coming in, he was completely relieved, and Lin Yanhong withdrew from the mustard seed.

Although it is very gratifying to see the little guy, it is a private time for father and son to reunite after all. Lin Yanhong did not want to spy on the secrets of the royal family, so he resolutely stopped looking at the picture reflected in the pool.

So in a place that Lin Yanhong couldn't see, Li Jingcheng later turned into a human form and practiced calligraphy in front of Li Qiyu.

This is the task assigned by Lin Yanhong to the little guy, in addition to the homework of copying Buddhist scriptures.

In order to urge Prince Yu's son to understand and be able to write human characters as soon as possible, Lin Yanhong took great pains.

Although he is not watching by the little guy's side now, the little wolf cub is still very obedient. Even in these heartbroken days, as long as he transforms into a human form, he will practice writing with a pen and will never slack off.

——He needs to learn more characters quickly, and then he can write letters to Hiro!Woohoo!

Li Qiyu didn't know the little girl in Li Jingcheng's heart, and he thought that his son had finally changed his naughty personality of only playing in the past, and started to gather his mind and work hard, so he felt very relieved.

However, he has always been stern, even though he is satisfied in his heart, he will not praise Li Jingcheng on the surface.

He just said with a serious face: "When you can control the ancestor's return soul, Gu will teach you the art of war. You are my Daliang royal family, and you must not insult your ancestor's heroism."

Li Jingcheng looked at his father Li Qiyu with some doubts—as long as he could remember, his father kept repeating that he was from the Daliang royal family and the son of King Yu... This is the truth, why did the father bother to repeat it? Emphasis?

He didn't think too much, but withdrew his mind, and rubbed his thumb against the ancient jade pinched in the palm of his left hand, feeling its warm and moist touch, as if Lin Yanhong was still by his side.

Without Li Qiyu's urging, he continued to hang his wrist and began to write the second word.

Since Li Jingcheng turned into a human form shortly after King Yu arrived at Huayin Temple, leaving at this time might attract the attention of interested people, so they did not move.

It was already late at night when he regained his wolf form. King Yu and his party did not stay in the temple any longer. After bidding farewell to Master Wujue, they quickly left Wushan with the son of King Yu who had "lived in" and headed for Pingwu County. The direction is rushing.

What they ride is not a horse, but a special "tool", so they are extremely fast.

Obviously, Pingwu is much farther away from Wushan than Yunyang City is from Wushan, but he arrived at Prince Yu's Mansion smoothly at about the same time as Lin Yanhong and the others returned to Yunyang City.

Lin Yanhong accidentally saw those "giant monsters" through the pool, and was even more surprised than seeing Yu Wang himself.

He suppressed the fear in his heart and decided to hide what he "saw" deeply in his heart, pretending that he never knew it.

……

The stewards of Lin's Mansion waited anxiously at the north city gate. Seeing that the sunset was approaching and the city gate was about to be closed, they were very irritated before they could wait for the young master's carriage.

At this time, a sharp-eyed young man stretched his head to look, and said pleasantly: "Guo Shi, it's our mansion's carriage! The young master and the others are back!"

Guo Xiang was terrified by his sudden call of his name, and was about to curse, when he heard the last half of the sentence, his brows brightened immediately.

——The young master's frame arrived before dark, so they don't have to wait for a long time tomorrow...

He hurriedly led people up to greet him, first said a few words to the steward in the convoy, then leaned over to Lin Yanhong's carriage and greeted him: "Young master, the younger one is Guo Xiang, the steward of the house, the old master ordered me to come pick up the young master Back home, the boat and the car are exhausting, you have worked hard."

When Lin Yanhong heard this somewhat familiar voice, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment. After he realized it, he remembered that Guo Xiang hadn't replaced Zhang Quan, who was left behind by his great-grandfather, as the chief steward of the Lin Mansion.

However, he has not forgotten how Guo Xiang became the dog of Mrs. Lin Tong and Mrs. Zhen, colluding with Zhong Mingjie to assassinate him!

After Guo Xiang finished speaking, he bowed his body and waited for a long time, but he didn't get any response. The smile on his face didn't decrease under the eyes of everyone, but he couldn't help feeling unhappy.

He is the son of a family, his father was originally in charge of the mansion, and his mother was Mrs. Zeng Tai's maid, but because they did not deal with Zhang Quan, they have not been reused.

After the old master Zeng passed away, Zhang Quan was still the head of the Lin family, but he did not have the trust of the old master Lin Qiongde. In recent years, he was even more frustrated. Many people watched his position and tried their best secretly.

Guo Xiang's old man was working in the front, and Guo Xiang himself had been working in the Dongyuan and Nanyuan of the two young masters.

He has long seen that the old man and the old lady have the final say in this mansion, and the old man Lin Feng is not their own son. In Lin Tong's heart, he may not be as close as Mrs. Zhen, a concubine who is a distant niece.

I don't know the reason, but the son Lin Yanhong is weak and sick, so he probably won't live long, and Lin Jun and Lin Yanxing will have the final say in the future of the Lin family.

Lin Jun was not in the mansion all the year round, and only a few book boys were left behind. Even if Guo Xiang wanted to curry favor, he had nowhere to do it.

So he put his mind on Nanyuan first, so that he could climb up with the power of Mrs. Zhen.

After spending too much time in Nanyuan, the other side naturally neglected it, and often did not show up in Dongyuan for ten days and a half months, so if it was Lin Yanhong in his previous life, he was really not very familiar with him at this time.

Lin Yanhong suppressed the disgust in his heart, and leaned against the wall of the car with a cold face, as if he didn't intend to answer.

Hu Po didn't like Guo Xiang either, but after all, it was outside, her young master didn't want to speak up, so naturally she had to smooth things over as a personal maid, so that Guo Xiang wouldn't hold grudges and would trip them up in Dongyuan in the future.

"I have Manager Guo, the journey is far away, the young master is resting, it's inconvenient to talk... Let's just listen to Manager Guo's arrangement, do you think we should go back home directly?"

Guo Xiang sneered in his heart when he heard the words: I was riding a carriage all the way, and I couldn't hold on to this effort... Didn't it mean that I was in good health?How can I return this ghostly virtue...

Of course, he didn't dare to speak out what was in his heart, but continued to say courteously: "If it's convenient, let's go back to the house quickly, the old man and the old lady are waiting for the young master."

Originally, when the young master came back, the mansion would not pay so much attention to it, and he would not rush to do this job.

It was entirely because of various things that happened in the mansion recently, which made Guo Xiang, who was originally determined, a little flustered.

In order to prevent the young master from remembering his previous negligence, Guo Xiangcai took this opportunity to go out of the house to meet Lin Yanhong.

As for what to do in the future, with Guo Xiang's vision, he can't see the clue for the time being, so he can only pay attention everywhere, be cautious in everything, and take a step at a time.

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Lin Yanhong was not surprised by this subtle change in the attitude of Guo Xiang, who didn't pay much attention to Dongyuan, after going out for a trip by himself.

He believes that there are not a few people in the Lin Mansion who are still watching carefully like Guo Xiang.

Lin Yanxing's embarrassment at the Lotus Poetry Appreciation Conference not only made the Lin family ashamed, but also affected Lin Tong's precious son Lin Jun who was studying in Qingtong Academy.

Based on Lin Yanhong's understanding of her grandmother, she probably hates Lin Yanxing to death now.

After ten years of management, although Mrs. Zhen was able to speak in the mansion, she still relied on the power of her cousin. Once Lin Tong turned against her, the situation of Mrs. Zhen's mother and child immediately became embarrassing.

A distant niece, a concubine, how can it compare to a hair of her own son...

Originally, Lin Yanhong was still wondering how far Lin Tong would go, but now that Guo Xiang had come to pick him up, he was even more sure that the mother and son were probably still in "dire straits".

On the contrary, Lin Yanhong lived in the Huayin Temple in Wushan. Although he did not tell the public that he lived in the inner courtyard near Jiebeiyuan, the servants of the Lin family who accompanied him all knew that he could only live in the monk's dormitory because of the favor of the eminent monk in the temple. of.

Master Lin Feng knew about this matter, and Lin Tong and Mrs. Zhen, who arranged "one of their own" in the team, naturally knew about it too.

As for King Zhejun who held a poetry meeting in Zezhi Courtyard of Lin Mansion after returning from Huayin Temple, I am afraid that he would not take the initiative to mention what happened in Wushan, let alone his little-known child.

Otherwise, Lin Tong, who is short-sighted, might be more concerned about Lin Yanhong.

It is a completely different concept to gain the eyes of eminent monks and the eyes of rich and powerful.

Huayin Temple is an ancient temple in Zhenguo, where incense is at its peak. It is said that all the eminent monks in the temple have unknown supernatural powers, which can save everyone.

Gaining the attention of the rich and powerful might be able to gain power all at once, but it was not the best thing for a scholarly and official family like them.

But getting the eye of an eminent monk is to have a relationship with the Buddha, and it will bring some blessings, so for most people, this is a great opportunity, but it seems to be more difficult to meet than to seek.

Lin Yanhong's trip to Huayin Temple was originally to fulfill his wish, but also to pray for Lin Jun who will end this autumn.

He was able to listen to scriptures and copy scriptures beside the eminent monk, which must have made Lin Tong overjoyed.

However, it was not Lin Tong's wish to let him enjoy the blessings in Huayin Temple alone, so they used the excuse of worshiping their ancestors to anxiously call Lin Yanhong back to Yunyang City.

During this period of time, she wanted Lin Yanhong to stay by Lin Jun's side, and it was best to transfer all her blessings to Lin Jun!

It was precisely because he understood Lin Tong's thoughts that Lin Yanhong knew that when he returned home, his grandmother's attitude towards him would not completely change, but she would still be pleasant for a while, at least until Lin Jun was off the stage and then won the election.

In the past, apart from his father, who would miss him so much?

Not to mention sending someone to pick him up at the gate of the city, I'm afraid he won't be able to see the stewards of the inner and outer courtyards when they drive through the side gate of the Lin residence.

When the motorcade returned to the Lin Mansion, Lin Yanhong saw his father Lin Feng just as he got off the carriage.

The other party looked over expectantly, looked at Lin Yanhong carefully, and immediately smiled: "Okay, okay... My son looks good, Wushan is indeed a treasure land of geomantic omen, and is blessed by the Buddha."

At the beginning, he was worried that the distance would be long, and Lin Yanhong would find it hard to go back and forth.

Now seeing that his son's complexion is rosy and full of energy, showing the vigor of a young man, he can't help but be ecstatic.

Even though I hadn't seen him for two months, the thoughts aroused in my heart turned into relief at this moment, grabbed Lin Yanhong's wrist, and praised Huayin Temple again and again.

When Lin Yanhong saw his father, he was also very excited. Seeing the importance and love for him from the other party's eyes, Lin Yanhong's irritability of facing all kinds of unpleasant things immediately disappeared.

"The child is not filial. He has been away for so long, and his father is worried."

Lin Feng happily retorted: "You are in good health, what else do you have to worry about as a father? Come back and take a good rest and strengthen yourself, so the previous efforts will be in vain."

Lin Yanhong nodded and said yes: "I will go back to Dongyuan to wash up first, and then I will go to He'antang to pay my respects to my grandparents."

"Well, it's only natural... we will have dinner at He'antang later, your uncle is back, and our family will be reunited."

Lin Yanhong remained calm on the surface, but he said in his heart: They are indeed a family reunion, only our father and son are not included... But it doesn't matter, even if it is only our father and son, and there are no other people, it is not bad.

……

Back to my own Dongyuan, all I saw along the way were carved beams and painted buildings with a style completely different from that of the temple.

Lin Yanhong found that he was suddenly not used to this place where he had lived for ten years, oh no, it was 20 years.

Seeing that Lin Yanhong stopped and stared at the colorful paintings on the Chaoshou verandah, Hu Po thought he was confused, so she explained: "My servant just heard from E Huang that the mansion refurbished the colored paintings everywhere when the young master left home. The paintings now look bright in color, so it can be seen that the craftsmen invited here have good craftsmanship."

Although the Lin family is not a relative of the emperor, Hexi and Xuanzi are not needed, but even the colorful paintings of this ordinary family of officials should not be underestimated.

If it is a new painting, experienced craftsmen should first polish the surface of the wooden piece, use putty to caulk and prime, and then wrap it with hemp silk;

Then attach the patterns of landscapes, flowers, animals, fish and insects painted on the paper to the wooden pieces, poke the holes with a needle as positioning, and then use the color to draw the outline, which is called drawing;

Next, put the prepared powder in a special tool and drain the powder according to the powder line; after drying, it is colored and haloed, glued, then brushed with gold glue, and gold foil is pasted; finally, the outline of the ink line and white line set shape.

The steps are complicated, labor-intensive and time-consuming, and it is an extremely delicate job.

When refurbishing, the first two steps can be omitted, but the dust and dirt must also be removed. Sometimes the color painting is severely worn, and you have to start over, which is no more worry-free than a new painting.

In Lin Yanhong's memory, has Dongyuan ever made such a big show?

Since E Huang was caught by Lin Yanhong last time when she entered the room without authorization to peep, she has never dared to appear in front of Lin Yanhong, especially after Cuilian was kicked out for the same reason, she was even more worried for a long time.

Fortunately, the Eldest Young Master went to Wushan for two months, which relieved her a little.

Seeing that the young master had come back from a good rest, Ehuang guessed that he must be in a good mood recently, so she wandered around in front of Hu Po a few times, talking about the situation in the mansion without any pain.

Hearing what Hu Po said, Lin Yanhong knew that Ehuang, a "smart" girl, was like Guo Xiang, and began to poke and throw stones to ask for directions. Although she didn't completely give up Nanyuan, she didn't want to lose the benefits of Dongyuan.

In fact, Lin Yanhong doesn't mind such scumbags as Ehuang. What he is really afraid of is Mrs. Zhen in Nanyuan, who can "turn danger into safety" and "return to life" in the end no matter what happens.

At least before Lin Yanhong passed away, his grandmother Lin Tong was already sick in bed, and it is estimated that compared to Lin Yanhong, she could not last for too long.

Although Lin Jun was selected in Qiuwei, he failed in the two examinations. Later, he was sent to Lin County as an official. After several years of marriage, he had nothing to do, which became Lin Tong's heart disease and accelerated her aging and weakness.

Lin Yanhong didn't believe that there was no conflict between Lin Tong and her "submissive and gentle" niece, and of course he didn't think that the ending was just destiny.

……

After simply freshening up and washing away the dust from the exhausted boats and cars, Lin Yanhong changed into a dark blue robe and headed to Lin Qiongde's He An Tang.

Although Hu Po also prepared a white robe for him, she felt that it would look more energetic and more in line with the gentle temperament of the young master, but Lin Yanhong declined it politely.

——His uncle, who is not a few years older, has always been arty, and he likes plain robes the most. If he wears that, wouldn't he rush to criticize Lin Tong?What's more, if you wear it darker, you won't be able to show your good looks. I'm afraid it's just as the two elders intended. Maybe this meal can really be "happy"...

Thinking of this, Lin Yanhong slowed down his steps, so that he would inevitably pant when he walked over, so he pretended to be more like it.

In his opinion, anyway, there is bound to be a show of fatherly kindness and filial piety tonight, and he modified it a little, so it seems harmless.

When he arrived at He Antang, Lin Yanhong couldn't help but secretly praised himself for his good memory and foresight.

He stepped forward to salute the young man in a plain robe, and said, "Hello, Uncle."

This person was once Lin Yanhong's envy.

He is the eldest son of Lin Qiongde and Lin Tong, so he is naturally loved and looked forward to, and he is talented and intelligent, so he went to school smoothly.

If it is said that Lin Yanxing has taken the convenience of Enyin, this person has gained a lot of praise because of his examinations. Although he is not a top student in Qingtong Academy, he is quite famous for his talents.

What made Lin Yanhong even more envious was that this person was completely unaffected by all kinds of unbearable influences in the Lin family—Lin Tong's schemes played on Lin Feng and them, all of which avoided his own son...

In a way, this person is spotless and flawless.

Lin Jun and Lin Yanhong were somewhat similar in birth, but he was not as handsome as Lin Yanhong, but he was tall and tall, and he had studied in Qingtong Academy for many years, so he had a cool and reserved scholarly demeanor.

It's just that he doesn't look very well at the moment, as if he is angry for something.

Lin Yanhong just pretended not to know, and let the other party scrutinize him - anyway, he was not the one who caused Lin Jun to be ashamed. The so-called debtors have debtors, and Lin Jun is not as fond of venting his anger on others as his mother.

Sure enough, Lin Jun calmed down his emotions, and replied politely with a slightly cold tone: "Well, according to my mother, you went to Wushan? It does look much better."

"Yanhong thank you uncle for your concern." Lin Yanhong saluted Lin Jun again.

This friendly but not greasy manner made Lin Jun feel very comfortable. In addition, Lin Tong had already told him that his elder nephew went to Wushan to pray for Lin Jun, so he was invited to enter the He'an Hall together.

Lin Yanhong walked a step behind him, looking at Lin Jun's straight back, the envy he once had for him suddenly disappeared.

——Perhaps Lin Tong's protection of Lin Jun in the "previous life" actually harmed him... so much so that when facing Madam Zhen and Lin Yanxing later, Lin Jun was even more helpless than this sick child.

When the two entered He An Tang, Lin Yanhong saw Lin Yanxing standing beside him with his head bowed, and couldn't help being stunned.

I originally thought how much hatred, how much resentment, how much unwillingness would be in my heart...

But in fact, Lin Yanhong was not as excited as he imagined.

The young man in Lin Yanhong's memory, who was in full bloom, pointed out the country, and wrote passionately, is just a poor wretch who got into trouble and was punished by his grandparents.

Lin Jun didn't even look at Lin Yanxing, and walked up directly, saluting Lin Qiongde and Lin Tongshi: "My child, send my regards to father and mother."

After his uncle finished his salute, Lin Yanhong stepped forward to greet his grandfather and grandmother.

When they came in just now, Lin Tong, who was still looking angry when he saw Lin Jun, felt a little better and had a smile on his face.

When she saw Lin Yanhong again, although she couldn't say she was particularly happy, she still remembered his "contributions" and treated him kindly.

Lin Qiongde asked
