A new journey of accumulating wealth
Chapter 183 Qingping Years 3 in 1
It was very lively outside, Wen Shi was sitting on the kang in the house, and there was a book of scriptures on the kang table.Day after day, she was in the house, facing the scriptures, reading and copying over and over again...but today is a bit different, even in the house, she can still hear the noise outside.
The old lady was concerned about her affection and asked Wen Lan'er to accompany Wen, but the mother and daughter shared a room, an inner room and an outer room, and never spoke unless necessary.
Wen Shi looked out the window several times today, and asked, "Is this... something at home today?"
No one in the family restrained Wen Shi, but Wen Shi was very self-conscious and never stepped out of the house.No one detained Wen Lan'er, but she basically didn't move around outside the side yard.When people come from home, they stay at home.If you need anything, just ask your mother-in-law to prepare it.Eating, drinking, washing, and all other trivial matters come from this way.
There is something to do today, the woman who delivered the meal in the morning has already reminded Wen Lan'er that the fourth grandma is going to entertain the clansmen, and these people have to say hello to the old lady and ask the gate of the yard to be guarded.Therefore, she closed the courtyard door early.The mother-in-law also called her little granddaughter and stood guard in the gatehouse at the gate of the courtyard. No one would open the door.You have to tell the person calling the door what's going on, and don't make any misunderstandings.
At this moment, she was working non-stop in the outside room, and when she saw someone asking inside, she said, "...the fourth grandma invites her clansmen, and now she will come to pay her respects to the old lady one after another."
Wen Shi sat back down again, "The old lady called her a housekeeper, it is indeed right. Unlike the wife and grandma, the arrogance of a wealthy family cannot be overthrown."
Wen Lan'er put down what she was doing, and Yang Sheng asked, "Do you dislike your wife or grandma?"
From what he said, he felt that Wen Shi looked down on both of them.
But Wen said: "My wife is kind to me, and I miss her kindness. She treats me better than my own daughter. If I have the ability and ability, I will naturally treat her better than my own mother. But feelings are feelings. Knowing is knowing. Her ability is indeed not enough to take the seat of Mrs. Hou. The old lady who was not invited in the mansion back then has never been able to enter the circle of noble ladies. How much can you expect from her when she chooses a daughter-in-law? Good eyesight. After a humble life, the wife entered the door. Later, it was not good to choose a daughter-in-law for the uncle. I chose her niece. The family status of the Xu family did not help the Jin family. Xu's family, what can they expect? Ruige'er's appearance, not to mention the princess, should have followed the relationship between the fourth son and Shun Palace, and asked to marry the princess of Yishun Palace... The family is prosperous, With a long line of descendants, it is not easy for a clan wife to do so. In the past, it was not obvious when it was smooth and stable, but now... once something happens, the so-called daughter of a wealthy family is not as good as the Lin family who was born as a barbarian in the northern border... "
Wen Lan'er frowned: "You speak too harshly."
Wen Shi fell silent, and then, the mother and daughter were silent for a while.
After a long while, Wen finally took a long breath, "... My experience is a lesson. You have to remember, don't believe men's flattering words so easily. They are greedy for beauty, and they will say anything. Dare to promise. But when it comes to interests, those who are willing to make concessions for women can't be found. Lan'er, I still say the same thing, the husband's family I found for you is the best within my ability Choice. I know, you have your own plan in mind. If you want to change Brother Shen’s mind, you have a lot of ways. After the Chinese New Year, you will be fifteen. Flower letters can’t be delayed! My eyelids keep twitching today... I always feel that if I don’t tell you clearly now, I’m afraid our mother and daughter will never have the chance to talk like this again. Whether you hate me or blame me, I am your mother after all, and all I think about is You...the only person who won't hurt you is me..."
These words made Wen Lan'er's hands tremble uncontrollably, which was rare for her, and she couldn't control her emotions.
She thought of that young man...he wasn't the most handsome, but he looked the kindest. He had a shy and gentle smile, which was the brightest touch of color after she encountered a catastrophe and went to Wen's family.But it was because she cherished it so much that she felt that no matter what, she shouldn't bring him all the troubles.He deserved better...better girls.
Wenshi didn't wait for a reply from the outside, only during the meal, Lan'er brought food in. Today's food is a little richer: a dish of cold mung bean sprouts, a dish of cold cabbage, a dish of braised pork, A plate of tofu with minced meat.Then there is a bowl of hot and sour soup.There is also a pot of white rice, and some pastries.
It was actually the most sumptuous meal I ate after leaving the capital.
The taste is not the same as before, but it is similar to the taste of the filial old lady and the wife of the fourth room before, and it is very smooth to eat.
Such a sumptuous meal, but Wen Shi ate even more flustered.
This is a kind of intuition without reason, this feeling is particularly bad, and the meal is also very absent-minded.In the second half of the day, this feeling became more obvious. I couldn't read the Buddhist scriptures, and I couldn't copy them down. I sat there and wished I could find a wooden fish to knock them out.
Seeing that the sky was getting dark gradually, and it was almost time to close the gate of the courtyard, Wen Shi breathed a sigh of relief.That's when the door knocked.
This is for dinner.
In the end, I heard the voice of the woman guarding outside: "Fourth grandma, why are you free?"
Wen was taken aback, Lin Funiang is here?
She quickly got down from the kang, and Lan'er was already shouting: "Fourth grandma."
Lin Yutong put down the food box in his hand, and looked at the plain Wen Lan'er. To be honest, this girl... If it wasn't for her status, she really liked it.She likes girls with bones on her body, and this Wen Lan'er is.
Involuntarily, her voice softened, "Tonight I have a light meal, red dates and millet porridge, a few side dishes, and emerald steamed stuffed buns. Put them on the steamer to warm them up."
Because the kang is used to heat hot water, there are big pots and stoves in the house, and the water can be used to heat something, and the price cage is just fine.
Wen Lan'er agreed and went to work.
Lin Yutong went directly to the inner room and met Wen's face to face, but no one greeted him.
There were people guarding outside, Lin Yutong tried to soften his words in his heart, but... no matter how soft he was, the reality was cruel.
what?
Vincent couldn't believe it.
It's what you heard just now, "...the eldest prince fell off the horse, the situation is not very optimistic..." Lin Yutong repeated again.
Wen Shi took several steps back, and then sat down on the edge of the kang, "This is... where did this news come from..."
Lin Yutong didn't answer this question directly, but said: "Get ready tonight, and leave early tomorrow morning. You can follow Li Cheng back to the capital."
Wen's instantly understood that the news was brought by Li Cheng, and the news from Shun Palace was probably true.
For a while, she even began to breathe heavily, and it took her a long time to recover, then turned her face to look at Lin Yutong, "That's fine! As long as the child is still alive, even if it is disabled, without the throne, there is still a life In this way, Lan'er is relieved. No one cares about the eldest prince anymore. In this way, who cares whether he is a jerk or something else, not to mention that he also has a younger sister from a compatriot. From then on, Lan'er Er is the daughter of the Wen family. The one I gave birth to...has gone..."
The Wen family also has a daughter who is one year older than Wen Lan'er, but for this kind of thing, it is only said that the Wen family deliberately switched the child's name in order to keep it secret. The Wen family is dead, and there is nowhere to investigate.
Wen looked at Lin Yutong almost begging, "You can let go of the marriage between the two children, but I entrust Lan'er and her lifelong affairs to you. I don't want her to live in a big family, even if it is a small family, find someone who loves you." She cared for her people, and I am in this life... I am grateful to you."
As he said that, he knelt straight in front of Lin Yutong, "I'm going to Beijing, don't worry, I will take good care of Miss Qiong. I won't make her suffer the slightest grievance."
Lin Yutong supported Wen Shi with one hand, and finally nodded in agreement.She took a deep look at this woman, maybe she could really make a difference in a place like the palace.
She mentioned Sister Qiong with all sincerity.Xu Shi is really affectionate, Xu Shi Lin Yutong always likes to think bad things about people, but what if the threat in these words means?
It is always right to be on guard when planning for the worst.
The adopted daughter has collected a bunch, and doesn't care about the extra Wen Lan'er.
Lin Yutong promised: "Let's ask Lan'er to move in with Sister Xuan tomorrow."
Wen Lan'er almost dropped the plate of steamed buns in her hand onto the edge of the pot... Do you want to move there?
By the time she realized it, Fourth Grandma had already left.Only the mother and daughter were left, one inside the threshold and the other outside, just looking at each other face to face.
On this day, fourth master had to pick up his aunt, and got up before dawn.Jin Xiao will follow this time, and what he told Jin Ji was that the old lady asked to accompany him.
Jin Ji felt that this was the meaning of the old lady's change of heart, and told Jin Xiaowan to be careful on the road, and everything was arranged properly. Before leaving, he gave a silver note of 1000 taels, telling him to use this money only for expenses.
In fact, my aunt's house is not far away, half a day's journey away.I have something to do there, and it is unlikely that I will return that day, so when I leave, I will take a light car, or several carriages.
No one knew that there was a person sitting in the carriage, followed the convoy, and left just like that.The convoy stopped in the town and entered through the back door of the tea shop.Jin Xiao knew that this was something he had to say to the second master of Prince Shun's mansion.After a cup of tea was delayed here, the fourth master came out again, Jin Xiao found a carriage left behind, but the attendant of the second master was by the side of the carriage, as if he was packing up to use this carriage, Jin Xiao also I don't care.Just started here.
As soon as the team left, Li Cheng set off.I pulled several carts of goods, all of which were high-quality furs and ginseng, as if they were going out to buy new year's goods.Wen's face was smeared black, and he was wearing gray clothes and black trousers. He was afraid that he would not be able to bear the cold on the road, so he put on layer after layer, and his whole body was very bloated.She was like the most inconspicuous woman in the motorcade, following along all the way.
Li Cheng didn't take the initiative to talk to her, he just pretended that there was no such person in the motorcade, so he slowly... slowly walked away.
And when everything was settled, the old lady announced that Wen had died of illness.
Everyone knew it was fake, but the funeral still had to be done.
But after all, there are two layers of old people above, and the funeral of the younger generation can be explained in a simple way.Not to mention her, even Jin Zhongwei back then, because of his death, the funeral was rushed and simple.
A wife cannot be more expensive than a husband, and she can't be grand if she wants to.
The coffin had been prepared a long time ago, and the boy Jin Shi made it himself.Learning carpentry... I didn't learn the delicate ones, so I made a pair of this thing to practice my hands first.
Jin Shi looked at others like that, and the child felt aggrieved: "Father told me to do it."
Lin Yutong waved his hand, "Very good! As long as it works!"
The paint is already on and this is ready to use.Anyway, no one will be put inside, so just go down there so empty, so that the second master over there can be peaceful and peaceful.
It had been prepared long ago, so the mourning hall was quickly cleaned up.
I found a guest house and 'suspended' there.
These juniors don't know anything about Wen's past, not only the juniors, but also others don't know too much.On Sanfang's side, they only know that Wen's illness is extraordinary.Mrs. Sun would definitely not go to see it, for fear of infecting his brother Lang.On the side of the big house...Jin Kuang must have said that the father and son are the eldest son and grandson.But it's hard to say whether Xiao Xu knows or not.No one knows whether Mrs. Xu revealed the truth to this daughter-in-law.
Anyway, people are gone now, and the children are really sad.These years, the Wen family has no children, so they are good to the following nephews.The writer family is Qingliu, with a scholarly reputation from generation to generation, many copybooks are out of print, and others don't have them, so she must be able to get them.Therefore, as long as the children say they are useful, Wen must find a way to find them.Especially for the girls, Sister Lin and Sister Xuan, that would be even better.The piano, chess, calligraphy and painting that the girl learned were all learned from her talented second aunt.A few girls said that it is deceitful to say that they are proficient in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but the basics of learning are all taught by Wen.She treats the children kindly, and when she has delicious and fun things, even fashionable ones, she asks the children to share them.
The children all remember this well.
As soon as she said that she was gone, sister Xuan couldn't take it anymore, and she couldn't stop crying.
And what Sanfang showed was surprise, how to say this, how to say it is gone, it will be gone.
Sun also wondered, she originally wanted to help Wen's dress up, but when she arrived here, everything was packed.She felt strange, so she asked Lin Yutong, "Why didn't you call me over?"
Before Lin Yutong could speak, Wen Lan'er next to her said, "My aunt couldn't get up, but suddenly she seemed to be recovering last night, she was able to get up, and she even ate a bowl of porridge and two emerald buns. I looked at it and said yes Well, my aunt said that the time limit has come. I was taken aback, and I wanted to go back to the old lady to know... Who knows that my aunt would not let me, saying that it is a cold day, don't toss the old and the young, I can't bear it She got up and asked for hot water to wash, and put on new clothes to tidy up. Tell me, if it doesn’t work, don’t let anyone see her remains... These days when I’m sick, I can’t even eat a bowl of porridge a day , I lost my shape early..."
Having said that, Mrs. Sun understood somewhat.With such a good-looking appearance, I couldn't go there but left a bad impression.She also murmured 'Heaven is jealous of beauty' that's all.
Looking back, she immediately worried that her two children would have to keep watch, fearing that they would get sick from the cold.
As soon as she left in such a hurry, only Wen Lan'er and Lin Yutong were left inside.
The old lady said that she was getting older and couldn't stand the white-haired man sending the black-haired man, so she stopped coming.Over there, Aunt Wu came over to offer incense to Mrs. Xu, and said that the wife fainted when she heard the news, and it took a lot of effort to get better. She couldn't bear the stimulation, and thought of the second master as soon as she came, for fear of hurting her.Jin Kuang is the father-in-law, and he only asked Lin Yutong to take care of the funeral properly, that's all.
Dafang and his son can't leave the house, they just keep them, and they have to be looked after by Mrs. Yao.
She did come over, she was just offering incense sticks and keeping watch, and she was called several times in a short while.
Fourth Master was away, so he took Jin Yi with him.The third master is the only one used at home.
Send someone to report the funeral to the clan, and then ask him to support the male guest outside, Lin Yutong needs to coordinate with everyone, the children of the next generation are all dutiful sons, and they should be in the mourning hall.
Others only know that there is no child under Wen's knees, so the nephew must come to throw the pot and raise the banner.
It was supposed to belong to Brother Rui, but it was difficult for that body to go out for a while, so Brother Kun had to come.The old lady took pity on Mrs. Bai's pregnancy, and took her over, saying that she was in poor health and lacked a servant. On the side of the mourning hall for the female relatives, only Mrs. Sun was asked to guard the relatives and female relatives who entertained and mourned.
Lin Yutong only got a count of how many people there are in the clan yesterday, and there are quite a few juniors in the clan, so the mourning clothes and the like have to be arranged quickly.Not to mention anything else, only on the side of the big house, there are twenty or thirty children of the younger generation.
Coupled with the children of these clans, it seems that there are not a hundred or eighty people wearing mourning, which is very spectacular.
Wen Lan'er knelt behind Sister Lin and Sister Xuan. She hid her face in a big filial hat with a heavy filial piety, and only occasionally raised her eyes to look at the filial son.Seeing that Jin Qishen did not follow his elder brother to deal with the male customers, but took Jin Si to look after the young children in the clan very carefully. If anyone was hungry, he asked someone to bring pastries.Anyone who is thirsty must stop the child from drinking cold water, and drink ginger and jujube tea from the stove.I just finished my work here, and I didn't know what to order. After a while, a woman came over, bringing new futons for them girls.After changing the futon, it will be different immediately.There was a warm breath coming from under the knees... It turned out that the rough futon was filled with freshly burnt grass ash.The futon is changed every half an hour, and it is not cold at all.
He didn't follow his elder brother to do things to show up, but arranged these small things properly behind his back.
For a moment, her eyes couldn't help looking towards the other party...
Jin Qishen had just told Jin Si to prepare a few more charcoal basins, and at least one charcoal basin should be placed between the four of them, so as not to be cold, but when he turned his head, he saw a pair of autumn-like eyes looking straight at him.
is her.
He smiled at her peacefully, and then asked with a look in his eyes: What's the matter?
Having said that to him, he could still be kind.
She quickly lowered her eyes, shook her head lightly, then lowered her head again, the tears that had never been shed fell down all at once.Jiu'er, who had been with Sister Xuan all the time, was thoughtful. In the evening, she took a break and said this to Lin Yutong: "I think the way Miss Wen's eyes look at Second Brother Shen is similar to... "She didn't dare to talk about the elders, she just said, "I have the same eyes as the young mistress when she mentioned the young master..."
Lin Yutong couldn't help but pay attention to this statement.
Jiu'er is young, but she knows what's going on between men and women.So, she said yes, that's [-]% yes.
The eldest young lady in her mouth refers to Yao Shi.She has never seen Rui Ge'er, but she has seen Yao Shi mention Rui Ge'er.Yao Shi likes Rui Ge'er, that good-looking husband, how could Yao Shi not like him?
Now, Jiu'er said that Wen Lan'er looked at Shen Ge'er in the same way that Yao Shi mentioned Rui Ge'er, which meant that Wen Lan'er liked Shen Ge'er.The obvious contrast is that Jiu'er is obviously more familiar with Bai Shi, but when she made a comparison, why didn't she use Bai Shi as a comparison?
This shows that there is indeed a problem between Mrs. Bai and Brother Kun. Lin Yutong really didn't pay attention to what Brother Kun was thinking.But Mrs. Bai... still doesn't have Brother Kun in her heart.
It's hard to say about the relationship between two people.It can't be said that Mrs. Bai didn't fall in love with Brother Kun, so Lin Yutong must feel something about this daughter-in-law.After marriage, the two slowly get along with each other, and there are many feelings in each other, and it is impossible to say who is at fault.There is no rush!
But this can't help but remind Lin Yutong of one thing, which is brother Shen's marriage.To be honest, this child really has everything in his heart.At home, he never competes with his elder brother for loyalty, and is very obedient.He has always yielded to his younger siblings, and is very generous.To put it nicely, his personality can be said to be gentle, but to put it bluntly, he is a gentle person.
Without a pair of discerning eyes, it is really difficult to find out the goodness of this child.
Many sophisticated adults tend to ignore this child, let alone find him a young wife of the same age... How many people can the little girl see these good things.
If you don't have a chance to find someone from a good family background, if you have a chance, your own family is not the eldest son of the Jin family, but even if you are in charge of the family, that is also the youngest son.And brother Shen is the second son of this house, in the eyes of the big family, the value of marriage is really not high.But look for the daughter of a small official and a small official's family. If you can rely on your daughter to climb into a high-ranking family, you can expect the child to have a high level of vision.
With such a row, it seems that they understand why the original couple want to arrange marriage for the second son with the Wen family.Indeed, considering all aspects, there is nothing more suitable than this marriage.Even if Mrs. Xu wanted to adopt the second wife at that time, the fourth wife was reluctant to bear their son, and felt that finding a good in-law family and a good wife for their son was a lifetime matter, and it was nothing compared to that little reluctance.
And now that the Jin family has arrived, what options do those who can say that they are married?If Lin Yutong and Fourth Master were looking for the child of a down-to-earth family, they would be able to find it.But since childhood, the living environment, living habits, and other aspects are different. If two people get together, will they be able to live well?Brother Shen just didn't say anything... But the parents felt that the child was wronged.
The next day, she first went to the mourning hall to have a look, and it was all right to look around.
She noticed that the place Sister Lan chose was very special, and it was difficult for people kneeling around to notice that there was her there.She lowered her filial hat so that no one could see his face.That's right, today there are people from the old house, people from the clan, and even half-grown kids come in and out.No one is protecting her, she knows how to protect herself very well.
Brother Kun was about to come over to talk, when someone outside said that the third master was looking for him, so he hurried outside.
Lin Yutong looked at brother Shen who was talking to Jin Si, and raised his voice.She yelled and looked at Sister Lan from the corner of her eye.
As soon as the word 'Brother Shen' was called out, Wen Lan'er quickly half-raised her head and looked directly at where Brother Shen was.The place is so big and the people are in a mess. Sister Xuan raised her head and looked around. Then she found Brother Shen's seat, and then shouted, "Second brother! Second brother! Mother called you."
Brother Shen came over in a hurry, tripped over a little guy, and almost fell.Others couldn't help but chuckled, but Wen Lan'er, like sisters Xuan and Lin, first let out a 'beep' from worry, and then breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she was all right.Sister Xuan and Sister Lin could still complain that someone's child was not optimistic, but Wen Lan'er over there lowered her head, as if she wasn't the one who was worried just now.
Lin Yutong knew it in her heart, and when she found a free time, she asked someone to call Brother Shen back.
Brother Shen thought there was something to do, so he came over in a hurry, and when he came in, he called his mother, "What can I ask my son to do?"
Lin Yutong looked at Brother Shen who seemed to have grown taller, and couldn't help laughing, "Mother wants to tell you something."
Brother Shen was taken aback for a moment, then nodded: "Listen, son." He picked up the tea, tested the temperature with the back of his hand, and then handed it over.
The expression on Lin Yutong's face became condensed, and he told him about Wen Shi, the emperor, and Xu Shizhong, and he didn't even hide from him what happened to the eldest prince recently.
Brother Shen looked solemn, "Mother told me this, but you want to bring up my marriage with Wen's cousin again?"
Lin Yutong reached out and touched the child's face, "Can you tell mother what you think?"
Brother Shen lowered his eyelids, "My son has no big ambitions, I just hope that the family will be safe and happy together. The matter of the second aunt... To be honest, my son was shocked. At the same time, I feel that the second uncle is foolish and loyal, and the first wife How can a person accept someone at will? On the one hand, I feel that the second aunt is pitiful. On the left, it is just that the woman has become a victim that the man gave up for power. She said it was a proper arrangement, but in fact she still abandoned it. Then the son became angry... The eldest sister, she married into the He family, What will happen? The son is really worried. The son is willing to trust the second aunt, and the second aunt is willing to help his sister because of guilt. But I am also afraid that the second aunt who is close to the center of power will change... What if it changes? If in the future How about using my sister to blackmail my father? Thinking of this, my son is afraid... If my mother wants to bring up this marriage again, my son will not object. Marrying her will ensure that my sister and nephew will not be bullied... Treat her very well, if you can get two It's worth it for my aunt to be kind to my sister." If she really hurts the family because of her status in the future, it's a big deal to ask my father to kick me out of the house.
Thinking about it this way, my heart became more calm.He raised his head and looked at his mother firmly, "Mother, you can decide this matter, I promise."
This child knows everything in his heart, but he still thinks of everything for others.
She asked, "What if...what if Sister Lan's identity is..."
"Mother, since my son married her, there is absolutely no reason for him to abandon her." He smiled frankly, but refused to say another word!
This silly boy!
Lin Yutong raised her hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a broken smile: "Father and mother are cruel people who are willing to use you to fill holes?" She pulled the child to sit down, "Mother is never someone who makes a decision and is willing to go back on it easily. .Since your marriage was canceled for you, according to your father’s and me’s personality, we would not turn back easily. But this time, why did mother come back to ask you... It’s not like you think, it’s for your sister ... If there is really something wrong with your sister, your father and I have a solution. I am not willing to sacrifice you. Mother came to ask you because... I saw you from that child's eyes..."
Brother Shen didn't understand at first, but then he did, and his face immediately flushed red: "Mother... no... no..." He was at a loss like a child.
Lin Yutong sighed, "So, mother is worried! My son is very good. In the eyes of mother and your father, you are the same as your brother, your sister, and your younger siblings. You are the best. Mother doesn't want my son to be wronged. If you can't like my son, then no matter how good she is, in my eyes, that's not suitable. Conversely, if the girl is very good herself, and she has my son in her eyes... can she still be the same as me? , I just think that my son is the best... Then of course I have to ask what my stupid son thinks. Mother hopes that other girls have you in their hearts, and also hope that you have other girls in their hearts, and want to marry her , this is not considered a grievance. That's why my mother told you these words. I told you not to think about the things behind them. As for those so-called troubles... there are solutions to troubles, and men have to solve troubles Courage and responsibility. You just have to think about it, after putting everything aside, just say that such a person is worthy of your liking, and whether you can let her go in your heart."
Brother Shen's ears and neck were red, and he was so embarrassed that he had nowhere to hide, "...son... never thought about..."
Then you think about it slowly, and let's talk after you think about it.
Jin Qishen didn't know how he got out, the heat on his face faded away when the cold wind blew.I was quite sad to keep the second aunt's wake before.Now his emotions are a bit complicated, knowing that the coffin is empty, he is not so anxious to walk towards the mourning hall.
Niang said that the cousin of the Wen family has herself in her heart.
This feeling is very chic.When he got engaged, he never dreamed of it.At that time, I also thought that my wife doesn't have to be pretty, just pleasing to the eye.You don't have to be talented, you just need to be able to read and write clearly.It doesn't have to be gentle like water, just fierce, as long as she is right, you can follow her.Even if she looks like sister Xuan and spoils her a bit, that's okay, as long as she respects her like a wife and loves her like a younger sister, there will be nothing wrong with it.
But I didn't think about it, she has such a face.In fact, the two families are related by marriage, and he has met other girls from the Wen family, but he has never met her.She didn't care about it before, but after getting engaged, she always thought that she was not in good health.After getting engaged, he and her took a look at each other across the pavilion from a distance, but in fact, he didn't see clearly.He didn't really see her until something happened to the Wen family and she was lucky enough to survive.
He was afraid that she would think too much, and told her that he didn't mind what she was worried about.But he didn't expect that in return, she told him that she had someone in her heart.
Are you uncomfortable?It was very difficult at that time.
Are you ashamed?There should be some.
But he still forgives and understands and appreciates such an approach, at least in her situation, she didn't try to deceive herself.
He thought that if she had the courage to speak out, she must have already made a plan.Maybe she must have discussed it with the him in her heart.What I was waiting for was just to divorce myself.
He is willing to retire, and others may feel useless, but in his opinion, he has nothing to lose by helping others.
Furthermore, compared with her, he is really too ordinary.
The Jin family is already like this, he thought, he will also find an ordinary wife in the future, and they will live an ordinary life together.It doesn't matter whether it's good or bad, during this period of time, he left all those books and classics behind. There are a lot of books in the house, and what he reads most is agriculture and miscellaneous studies. try.He thought, even if he is no longer a son, a man should have the ability to support his family.
But suddenly, Mother said that she had him in her heart.
He didn't believe it at first, but he thought, why would mother lie to himself.He is not as good as his brother, nor as clever and cute as his brother, but he never feels that he is treated differently.Mother would not be guilty of lying to herself for this.
That is to say, maybe she really has her own in her heart.
Are you happy?A little.
But then she felt uncomfortable again. If she had herself in her heart, why did she lie to herself before?
There is only one possibility, that is, she knows her own life experience, and she is afraid of hurting herself.
If you think about it from another angle, does she feel that she doesn't have the ability and responsibility to protect her from the wind and rain?
For the first time, he felt that it was a mistake to be an ordinary person willing to live the most ordinary life.Is parental upbringing and family expectation just to keep you from making progress?
Thinking this way, the person has arrived at the mourning hall and walked in.
Sister Xuan knelt down and tugged at her brother's robe: "What's the matter?"
Jin Qishen lowered his head, took a look at Sister Xuan, and then realized that there was still a line of sight from the side.He habitually thought it was the second sister, but he didn't want to, and ran straight into Sister Lan's sight.
As soon as their eyes met, Sister Lan immediately lowered her head, as if she wasn't the one who was looking at him worriedly just now.
Jin Qishen looked at her, she lowered her head long ago, and couldn't see her face.The people kneeling there are so indifferent... Sister Xuan was wearing a mink fur cloak, only she was wrapped in a cotton cloak... He raised his hand and took off the wolf fur cloak, put it on her directly, and then strode forward and go...
The old lady was concerned about her affection and asked Wen Lan'er to accompany Wen, but the mother and daughter shared a room, an inner room and an outer room, and never spoke unless necessary.
Wen Shi looked out the window several times today, and asked, "Is this... something at home today?"
No one in the family restrained Wen Shi, but Wen Shi was very self-conscious and never stepped out of the house.No one detained Wen Lan'er, but she basically didn't move around outside the side yard.When people come from home, they stay at home.If you need anything, just ask your mother-in-law to prepare it.Eating, drinking, washing, and all other trivial matters come from this way.
There is something to do today, the woman who delivered the meal in the morning has already reminded Wen Lan'er that the fourth grandma is going to entertain the clansmen, and these people have to say hello to the old lady and ask the gate of the yard to be guarded.Therefore, she closed the courtyard door early.The mother-in-law also called her little granddaughter and stood guard in the gatehouse at the gate of the courtyard. No one would open the door.You have to tell the person calling the door what's going on, and don't make any misunderstandings.
At this moment, she was working non-stop in the outside room, and when she saw someone asking inside, she said, "...the fourth grandma invites her clansmen, and now she will come to pay her respects to the old lady one after another."
Wen Shi sat back down again, "The old lady called her a housekeeper, it is indeed right. Unlike the wife and grandma, the arrogance of a wealthy family cannot be overthrown."
Wen Lan'er put down what she was doing, and Yang Sheng asked, "Do you dislike your wife or grandma?"
From what he said, he felt that Wen Shi looked down on both of them.
But Wen said: "My wife is kind to me, and I miss her kindness. She treats me better than my own daughter. If I have the ability and ability, I will naturally treat her better than my own mother. But feelings are feelings. Knowing is knowing. Her ability is indeed not enough to take the seat of Mrs. Hou. The old lady who was not invited in the mansion back then has never been able to enter the circle of noble ladies. How much can you expect from her when she chooses a daughter-in-law? Good eyesight. After a humble life, the wife entered the door. Later, it was not good to choose a daughter-in-law for the uncle. I chose her niece. The family status of the Xu family did not help the Jin family. Xu's family, what can they expect? Ruige'er's appearance, not to mention the princess, should have followed the relationship between the fourth son and Shun Palace, and asked to marry the princess of Yishun Palace... The family is prosperous, With a long line of descendants, it is not easy for a clan wife to do so. In the past, it was not obvious when it was smooth and stable, but now... once something happens, the so-called daughter of a wealthy family is not as good as the Lin family who was born as a barbarian in the northern border... "
Wen Lan'er frowned: "You speak too harshly."
Wen Shi fell silent, and then, the mother and daughter were silent for a while.
After a long while, Wen finally took a long breath, "... My experience is a lesson. You have to remember, don't believe men's flattering words so easily. They are greedy for beauty, and they will say anything. Dare to promise. But when it comes to interests, those who are willing to make concessions for women can't be found. Lan'er, I still say the same thing, the husband's family I found for you is the best within my ability Choice. I know, you have your own plan in mind. If you want to change Brother Shen’s mind, you have a lot of ways. After the Chinese New Year, you will be fifteen. Flower letters can’t be delayed! My eyelids keep twitching today... I always feel that if I don’t tell you clearly now, I’m afraid our mother and daughter will never have the chance to talk like this again. Whether you hate me or blame me, I am your mother after all, and all I think about is You...the only person who won't hurt you is me..."
These words made Wen Lan'er's hands tremble uncontrollably, which was rare for her, and she couldn't control her emotions.
She thought of that young man...he wasn't the most handsome, but he looked the kindest. He had a shy and gentle smile, which was the brightest touch of color after she encountered a catastrophe and went to Wen's family.But it was because she cherished it so much that she felt that no matter what, she shouldn't bring him all the troubles.He deserved better...better girls.
Wenshi didn't wait for a reply from the outside, only during the meal, Lan'er brought food in. Today's food is a little richer: a dish of cold mung bean sprouts, a dish of cold cabbage, a dish of braised pork, A plate of tofu with minced meat.Then there is a bowl of hot and sour soup.There is also a pot of white rice, and some pastries.
It was actually the most sumptuous meal I ate after leaving the capital.
The taste is not the same as before, but it is similar to the taste of the filial old lady and the wife of the fourth room before, and it is very smooth to eat.
Such a sumptuous meal, but Wen Shi ate even more flustered.
This is a kind of intuition without reason, this feeling is particularly bad, and the meal is also very absent-minded.In the second half of the day, this feeling became more obvious. I couldn't read the Buddhist scriptures, and I couldn't copy them down. I sat there and wished I could find a wooden fish to knock them out.
Seeing that the sky was getting dark gradually, and it was almost time to close the gate of the courtyard, Wen Shi breathed a sigh of relief.That's when the door knocked.
This is for dinner.
In the end, I heard the voice of the woman guarding outside: "Fourth grandma, why are you free?"
Wen was taken aback, Lin Funiang is here?
She quickly got down from the kang, and Lan'er was already shouting: "Fourth grandma."
Lin Yutong put down the food box in his hand, and looked at the plain Wen Lan'er. To be honest, this girl... If it wasn't for her status, she really liked it.She likes girls with bones on her body, and this Wen Lan'er is.
Involuntarily, her voice softened, "Tonight I have a light meal, red dates and millet porridge, a few side dishes, and emerald steamed stuffed buns. Put them on the steamer to warm them up."
Because the kang is used to heat hot water, there are big pots and stoves in the house, and the water can be used to heat something, and the price cage is just fine.
Wen Lan'er agreed and went to work.
Lin Yutong went directly to the inner room and met Wen's face to face, but no one greeted him.
There were people guarding outside, Lin Yutong tried to soften his words in his heart, but... no matter how soft he was, the reality was cruel.
what?
Vincent couldn't believe it.
It's what you heard just now, "...the eldest prince fell off the horse, the situation is not very optimistic..." Lin Yutong repeated again.
Wen Shi took several steps back, and then sat down on the edge of the kang, "This is... where did this news come from..."
Lin Yutong didn't answer this question directly, but said: "Get ready tonight, and leave early tomorrow morning. You can follow Li Cheng back to the capital."
Wen's instantly understood that the news was brought by Li Cheng, and the news from Shun Palace was probably true.
For a while, she even began to breathe heavily, and it took her a long time to recover, then turned her face to look at Lin Yutong, "That's fine! As long as the child is still alive, even if it is disabled, without the throne, there is still a life In this way, Lan'er is relieved. No one cares about the eldest prince anymore. In this way, who cares whether he is a jerk or something else, not to mention that he also has a younger sister from a compatriot. From then on, Lan'er Er is the daughter of the Wen family. The one I gave birth to...has gone..."
The Wen family also has a daughter who is one year older than Wen Lan'er, but for this kind of thing, it is only said that the Wen family deliberately switched the child's name in order to keep it secret. The Wen family is dead, and there is nowhere to investigate.
Wen looked at Lin Yutong almost begging, "You can let go of the marriage between the two children, but I entrust Lan'er and her lifelong affairs to you. I don't want her to live in a big family, even if it is a small family, find someone who loves you." She cared for her people, and I am in this life... I am grateful to you."
As he said that, he knelt straight in front of Lin Yutong, "I'm going to Beijing, don't worry, I will take good care of Miss Qiong. I won't make her suffer the slightest grievance."
Lin Yutong supported Wen Shi with one hand, and finally nodded in agreement.She took a deep look at this woman, maybe she could really make a difference in a place like the palace.
She mentioned Sister Qiong with all sincerity.Xu Shi is really affectionate, Xu Shi Lin Yutong always likes to think bad things about people, but what if the threat in these words means?
It is always right to be on guard when planning for the worst.
The adopted daughter has collected a bunch, and doesn't care about the extra Wen Lan'er.
Lin Yutong promised: "Let's ask Lan'er to move in with Sister Xuan tomorrow."
Wen Lan'er almost dropped the plate of steamed buns in her hand onto the edge of the pot... Do you want to move there?
By the time she realized it, Fourth Grandma had already left.Only the mother and daughter were left, one inside the threshold and the other outside, just looking at each other face to face.
On this day, fourth master had to pick up his aunt, and got up before dawn.Jin Xiao will follow this time, and what he told Jin Ji was that the old lady asked to accompany him.
Jin Ji felt that this was the meaning of the old lady's change of heart, and told Jin Xiaowan to be careful on the road, and everything was arranged properly. Before leaving, he gave a silver note of 1000 taels, telling him to use this money only for expenses.
In fact, my aunt's house is not far away, half a day's journey away.I have something to do there, and it is unlikely that I will return that day, so when I leave, I will take a light car, or several carriages.
No one knew that there was a person sitting in the carriage, followed the convoy, and left just like that.The convoy stopped in the town and entered through the back door of the tea shop.Jin Xiao knew that this was something he had to say to the second master of Prince Shun's mansion.After a cup of tea was delayed here, the fourth master came out again, Jin Xiao found a carriage left behind, but the attendant of the second master was by the side of the carriage, as if he was packing up to use this carriage, Jin Xiao also I don't care.Just started here.
As soon as the team left, Li Cheng set off.I pulled several carts of goods, all of which were high-quality furs and ginseng, as if they were going out to buy new year's goods.Wen's face was smeared black, and he was wearing gray clothes and black trousers. He was afraid that he would not be able to bear the cold on the road, so he put on layer after layer, and his whole body was very bloated.She was like the most inconspicuous woman in the motorcade, following along all the way.
Li Cheng didn't take the initiative to talk to her, he just pretended that there was no such person in the motorcade, so he slowly... slowly walked away.
And when everything was settled, the old lady announced that Wen had died of illness.
Everyone knew it was fake, but the funeral still had to be done.
But after all, there are two layers of old people above, and the funeral of the younger generation can be explained in a simple way.Not to mention her, even Jin Zhongwei back then, because of his death, the funeral was rushed and simple.
A wife cannot be more expensive than a husband, and she can't be grand if she wants to.
The coffin had been prepared a long time ago, and the boy Jin Shi made it himself.Learning carpentry... I didn't learn the delicate ones, so I made a pair of this thing to practice my hands first.
Jin Shi looked at others like that, and the child felt aggrieved: "Father told me to do it."
Lin Yutong waved his hand, "Very good! As long as it works!"
The paint is already on and this is ready to use.Anyway, no one will be put inside, so just go down there so empty, so that the second master over there can be peaceful and peaceful.
It had been prepared long ago, so the mourning hall was quickly cleaned up.
I found a guest house and 'suspended' there.
These juniors don't know anything about Wen's past, not only the juniors, but also others don't know too much.On Sanfang's side, they only know that Wen's illness is extraordinary.Mrs. Sun would definitely not go to see it, for fear of infecting his brother Lang.On the side of the big house...Jin Kuang must have said that the father and son are the eldest son and grandson.But it's hard to say whether Xiao Xu knows or not.No one knows whether Mrs. Xu revealed the truth to this daughter-in-law.
Anyway, people are gone now, and the children are really sad.These years, the Wen family has no children, so they are good to the following nephews.The writer family is Qingliu, with a scholarly reputation from generation to generation, many copybooks are out of print, and others don't have them, so she must be able to get them.Therefore, as long as the children say they are useful, Wen must find a way to find them.Especially for the girls, Sister Lin and Sister Xuan, that would be even better.The piano, chess, calligraphy and painting that the girl learned were all learned from her talented second aunt.A few girls said that it is deceitful to say that they are proficient in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but the basics of learning are all taught by Wen.She treats the children kindly, and when she has delicious and fun things, even fashionable ones, she asks the children to share them.
The children all remember this well.
As soon as she said that she was gone, sister Xuan couldn't take it anymore, and she couldn't stop crying.
And what Sanfang showed was surprise, how to say this, how to say it is gone, it will be gone.
Sun also wondered, she originally wanted to help Wen's dress up, but when she arrived here, everything was packed.She felt strange, so she asked Lin Yutong, "Why didn't you call me over?"
Before Lin Yutong could speak, Wen Lan'er next to her said, "My aunt couldn't get up, but suddenly she seemed to be recovering last night, she was able to get up, and she even ate a bowl of porridge and two emerald buns. I looked at it and said yes Well, my aunt said that the time limit has come. I was taken aback, and I wanted to go back to the old lady to know... Who knows that my aunt would not let me, saying that it is a cold day, don't toss the old and the young, I can't bear it She got up and asked for hot water to wash, and put on new clothes to tidy up. Tell me, if it doesn’t work, don’t let anyone see her remains... These days when I’m sick, I can’t even eat a bowl of porridge a day , I lost my shape early..."
Having said that, Mrs. Sun understood somewhat.With such a good-looking appearance, I couldn't go there but left a bad impression.She also murmured 'Heaven is jealous of beauty' that's all.
Looking back, she immediately worried that her two children would have to keep watch, fearing that they would get sick from the cold.
As soon as she left in such a hurry, only Wen Lan'er and Lin Yutong were left inside.
The old lady said that she was getting older and couldn't stand the white-haired man sending the black-haired man, so she stopped coming.Over there, Aunt Wu came over to offer incense to Mrs. Xu, and said that the wife fainted when she heard the news, and it took a lot of effort to get better. She couldn't bear the stimulation, and thought of the second master as soon as she came, for fear of hurting her.Jin Kuang is the father-in-law, and he only asked Lin Yutong to take care of the funeral properly, that's all.
Dafang and his son can't leave the house, they just keep them, and they have to be looked after by Mrs. Yao.
She did come over, she was just offering incense sticks and keeping watch, and she was called several times in a short while.
Fourth Master was away, so he took Jin Yi with him.The third master is the only one used at home.
Send someone to report the funeral to the clan, and then ask him to support the male guest outside, Lin Yutong needs to coordinate with everyone, the children of the next generation are all dutiful sons, and they should be in the mourning hall.
Others only know that there is no child under Wen's knees, so the nephew must come to throw the pot and raise the banner.
It was supposed to belong to Brother Rui, but it was difficult for that body to go out for a while, so Brother Kun had to come.The old lady took pity on Mrs. Bai's pregnancy, and took her over, saying that she was in poor health and lacked a servant. On the side of the mourning hall for the female relatives, only Mrs. Sun was asked to guard the relatives and female relatives who entertained and mourned.
Lin Yutong only got a count of how many people there are in the clan yesterday, and there are quite a few juniors in the clan, so the mourning clothes and the like have to be arranged quickly.Not to mention anything else, only on the side of the big house, there are twenty or thirty children of the younger generation.
Coupled with the children of these clans, it seems that there are not a hundred or eighty people wearing mourning, which is very spectacular.
Wen Lan'er knelt behind Sister Lin and Sister Xuan. She hid her face in a big filial hat with a heavy filial piety, and only occasionally raised her eyes to look at the filial son.Seeing that Jin Qishen did not follow his elder brother to deal with the male customers, but took Jin Si to look after the young children in the clan very carefully. If anyone was hungry, he asked someone to bring pastries.Anyone who is thirsty must stop the child from drinking cold water, and drink ginger and jujube tea from the stove.I just finished my work here, and I didn't know what to order. After a while, a woman came over, bringing new futons for them girls.After changing the futon, it will be different immediately.There was a warm breath coming from under the knees... It turned out that the rough futon was filled with freshly burnt grass ash.The futon is changed every half an hour, and it is not cold at all.
He didn't follow his elder brother to do things to show up, but arranged these small things properly behind his back.
For a moment, her eyes couldn't help looking towards the other party...
Jin Qishen had just told Jin Si to prepare a few more charcoal basins, and at least one charcoal basin should be placed between the four of them, so as not to be cold, but when he turned his head, he saw a pair of autumn-like eyes looking straight at him.
is her.
He smiled at her peacefully, and then asked with a look in his eyes: What's the matter?
Having said that to him, he could still be kind.
She quickly lowered her eyes, shook her head lightly, then lowered her head again, the tears that had never been shed fell down all at once.Jiu'er, who had been with Sister Xuan all the time, was thoughtful. In the evening, she took a break and said this to Lin Yutong: "I think the way Miss Wen's eyes look at Second Brother Shen is similar to... "She didn't dare to talk about the elders, she just said, "I have the same eyes as the young mistress when she mentioned the young master..."
Lin Yutong couldn't help but pay attention to this statement.
Jiu'er is young, but she knows what's going on between men and women.So, she said yes, that's [-]% yes.
The eldest young lady in her mouth refers to Yao Shi.She has never seen Rui Ge'er, but she has seen Yao Shi mention Rui Ge'er.Yao Shi likes Rui Ge'er, that good-looking husband, how could Yao Shi not like him?
Now, Jiu'er said that Wen Lan'er looked at Shen Ge'er in the same way that Yao Shi mentioned Rui Ge'er, which meant that Wen Lan'er liked Shen Ge'er.The obvious contrast is that Jiu'er is obviously more familiar with Bai Shi, but when she made a comparison, why didn't she use Bai Shi as a comparison?
This shows that there is indeed a problem between Mrs. Bai and Brother Kun. Lin Yutong really didn't pay attention to what Brother Kun was thinking.But Mrs. Bai... still doesn't have Brother Kun in her heart.
It's hard to say about the relationship between two people.It can't be said that Mrs. Bai didn't fall in love with Brother Kun, so Lin Yutong must feel something about this daughter-in-law.After marriage, the two slowly get along with each other, and there are many feelings in each other, and it is impossible to say who is at fault.There is no rush!
But this can't help but remind Lin Yutong of one thing, which is brother Shen's marriage.To be honest, this child really has everything in his heart.At home, he never competes with his elder brother for loyalty, and is very obedient.He has always yielded to his younger siblings, and is very generous.To put it nicely, his personality can be said to be gentle, but to put it bluntly, he is a gentle person.
Without a pair of discerning eyes, it is really difficult to find out the goodness of this child.
Many sophisticated adults tend to ignore this child, let alone find him a young wife of the same age... How many people can the little girl see these good things.
If you don't have a chance to find someone from a good family background, if you have a chance, your own family is not the eldest son of the Jin family, but even if you are in charge of the family, that is also the youngest son.And brother Shen is the second son of this house, in the eyes of the big family, the value of marriage is really not high.But look for the daughter of a small official and a small official's family. If you can rely on your daughter to climb into a high-ranking family, you can expect the child to have a high level of vision.
With such a row, it seems that they understand why the original couple want to arrange marriage for the second son with the Wen family.Indeed, considering all aspects, there is nothing more suitable than this marriage.Even if Mrs. Xu wanted to adopt the second wife at that time, the fourth wife was reluctant to bear their son, and felt that finding a good in-law family and a good wife for their son was a lifetime matter, and it was nothing compared to that little reluctance.
And now that the Jin family has arrived, what options do those who can say that they are married?If Lin Yutong and Fourth Master were looking for the child of a down-to-earth family, they would be able to find it.But since childhood, the living environment, living habits, and other aspects are different. If two people get together, will they be able to live well?Brother Shen just didn't say anything... But the parents felt that the child was wronged.
The next day, she first went to the mourning hall to have a look, and it was all right to look around.
She noticed that the place Sister Lan chose was very special, and it was difficult for people kneeling around to notice that there was her there.She lowered her filial hat so that no one could see his face.That's right, today there are people from the old house, people from the clan, and even half-grown kids come in and out.No one is protecting her, she knows how to protect herself very well.
Brother Kun was about to come over to talk, when someone outside said that the third master was looking for him, so he hurried outside.
Lin Yutong looked at brother Shen who was talking to Jin Si, and raised his voice.She yelled and looked at Sister Lan from the corner of her eye.
As soon as the word 'Brother Shen' was called out, Wen Lan'er quickly half-raised her head and looked directly at where Brother Shen was.The place is so big and the people are in a mess. Sister Xuan raised her head and looked around. Then she found Brother Shen's seat, and then shouted, "Second brother! Second brother! Mother called you."
Brother Shen came over in a hurry, tripped over a little guy, and almost fell.Others couldn't help but chuckled, but Wen Lan'er, like sisters Xuan and Lin, first let out a 'beep' from worry, and then breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she was all right.Sister Xuan and Sister Lin could still complain that someone's child was not optimistic, but Wen Lan'er over there lowered her head, as if she wasn't the one who was worried just now.
Lin Yutong knew it in her heart, and when she found a free time, she asked someone to call Brother Shen back.
Brother Shen thought there was something to do, so he came over in a hurry, and when he came in, he called his mother, "What can I ask my son to do?"
Lin Yutong looked at Brother Shen who seemed to have grown taller, and couldn't help laughing, "Mother wants to tell you something."
Brother Shen was taken aback for a moment, then nodded: "Listen, son." He picked up the tea, tested the temperature with the back of his hand, and then handed it over.
The expression on Lin Yutong's face became condensed, and he told him about Wen Shi, the emperor, and Xu Shizhong, and he didn't even hide from him what happened to the eldest prince recently.
Brother Shen looked solemn, "Mother told me this, but you want to bring up my marriage with Wen's cousin again?"
Lin Yutong reached out and touched the child's face, "Can you tell mother what you think?"
Brother Shen lowered his eyelids, "My son has no big ambitions, I just hope that the family will be safe and happy together. The matter of the second aunt... To be honest, my son was shocked. At the same time, I feel that the second uncle is foolish and loyal, and the first wife How can a person accept someone at will? On the one hand, I feel that the second aunt is pitiful. On the left, it is just that the woman has become a victim that the man gave up for power. She said it was a proper arrangement, but in fact she still abandoned it. Then the son became angry... The eldest sister, she married into the He family, What will happen? The son is really worried. The son is willing to trust the second aunt, and the second aunt is willing to help his sister because of guilt. But I am also afraid that the second aunt who is close to the center of power will change... What if it changes? If in the future How about using my sister to blackmail my father? Thinking of this, my son is afraid... If my mother wants to bring up this marriage again, my son will not object. Marrying her will ensure that my sister and nephew will not be bullied... Treat her very well, if you can get two It's worth it for my aunt to be kind to my sister." If she really hurts the family because of her status in the future, it's a big deal to ask my father to kick me out of the house.
Thinking about it this way, my heart became more calm.He raised his head and looked at his mother firmly, "Mother, you can decide this matter, I promise."
This child knows everything in his heart, but he still thinks of everything for others.
She asked, "What if...what if Sister Lan's identity is..."
"Mother, since my son married her, there is absolutely no reason for him to abandon her." He smiled frankly, but refused to say another word!
This silly boy!
Lin Yutong raised her hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a broken smile: "Father and mother are cruel people who are willing to use you to fill holes?" She pulled the child to sit down, "Mother is never someone who makes a decision and is willing to go back on it easily. .Since your marriage was canceled for you, according to your father’s and me’s personality, we would not turn back easily. But this time, why did mother come back to ask you... It’s not like you think, it’s for your sister ... If there is really something wrong with your sister, your father and I have a solution. I am not willing to sacrifice you. Mother came to ask you because... I saw you from that child's eyes..."
Brother Shen didn't understand at first, but then he did, and his face immediately flushed red: "Mother... no... no..." He was at a loss like a child.
Lin Yutong sighed, "So, mother is worried! My son is very good. In the eyes of mother and your father, you are the same as your brother, your sister, and your younger siblings. You are the best. Mother doesn't want my son to be wronged. If you can't like my son, then no matter how good she is, in my eyes, that's not suitable. Conversely, if the girl is very good herself, and she has my son in her eyes... can she still be the same as me? , I just think that my son is the best... Then of course I have to ask what my stupid son thinks. Mother hopes that other girls have you in their hearts, and also hope that you have other girls in their hearts, and want to marry her , this is not considered a grievance. That's why my mother told you these words. I told you not to think about the things behind them. As for those so-called troubles... there are solutions to troubles, and men have to solve troubles Courage and responsibility. You just have to think about it, after putting everything aside, just say that such a person is worthy of your liking, and whether you can let her go in your heart."
Brother Shen's ears and neck were red, and he was so embarrassed that he had nowhere to hide, "...son... never thought about..."
Then you think about it slowly, and let's talk after you think about it.
Jin Qishen didn't know how he got out, the heat on his face faded away when the cold wind blew.I was quite sad to keep the second aunt's wake before.Now his emotions are a bit complicated, knowing that the coffin is empty, he is not so anxious to walk towards the mourning hall.
Niang said that the cousin of the Wen family has herself in her heart.
This feeling is very chic.When he got engaged, he never dreamed of it.At that time, I also thought that my wife doesn't have to be pretty, just pleasing to the eye.You don't have to be talented, you just need to be able to read and write clearly.It doesn't have to be gentle like water, just fierce, as long as she is right, you can follow her.Even if she looks like sister Xuan and spoils her a bit, that's okay, as long as she respects her like a wife and loves her like a younger sister, there will be nothing wrong with it.
But I didn't think about it, she has such a face.In fact, the two families are related by marriage, and he has met other girls from the Wen family, but he has never met her.She didn't care about it before, but after getting engaged, she always thought that she was not in good health.After getting engaged, he and her took a look at each other across the pavilion from a distance, but in fact, he didn't see clearly.He didn't really see her until something happened to the Wen family and she was lucky enough to survive.
He was afraid that she would think too much, and told her that he didn't mind what she was worried about.But he didn't expect that in return, she told him that she had someone in her heart.
Are you uncomfortable?It was very difficult at that time.
Are you ashamed?There should be some.
But he still forgives and understands and appreciates such an approach, at least in her situation, she didn't try to deceive herself.
He thought that if she had the courage to speak out, she must have already made a plan.Maybe she must have discussed it with the him in her heart.What I was waiting for was just to divorce myself.
He is willing to retire, and others may feel useless, but in his opinion, he has nothing to lose by helping others.
Furthermore, compared with her, he is really too ordinary.
The Jin family is already like this, he thought, he will also find an ordinary wife in the future, and they will live an ordinary life together.It doesn't matter whether it's good or bad, during this period of time, he left all those books and classics behind.
