The old man Lin Er didn't bother to teach his grandson and son-in-law a lesson. After all, he was not very good at dealing with his own granddaughter. If she had Jiang Wen's behavior, who would dare to bully her?

But now the lotus is at Jiang Wen's house, the whole Lin family knows Jiang Wen's bad temper, it is estimated that Wu Zhong would have been scolded in the past, and there is no need for him to get mad at himself for such a thing.

And Wu Zhong didn't know, although he was told a few words, it was not painful to him, since he knew where his wife was, he immediately went to find someone.

In the past two days, Xu Hehua was stopped by her grandfather and was not allowed to go back, so she lingered at Jiang Wen's place, both Xue and Xu were very dissatisfied with her behavior of trying to force her stepdaughter into their house, and they didn't want to see her at all. I won't come out to see you anymore.

As for Jiang Wen, fortunately, there is Qiuwen who is attractive, and when she completely ignores the existence of this person, there is still a little girl who can be teased.But people like Xu Hehua are still weird, they seem cowardly and unintentional, and they have a thick skin, and they can't be torn off.

When the servants came in to report that Wu Zhong had come, Jiang Wen was dragging Qi Qiuwen to indoctrinate him with some things. When he heard about the arrival, he ordered someone to bring him in, and said to Xu Hehua, "Don't come to me again after you go home." Here it is, I want to have some fun in the short time before returning to Yangzhou!"

Xu Hehua looked at Jiang Wen with an aggrieved face, and she was so hesitant to speak that her scalp tingled.It was Xu Hehua who caused Jiang Wen's discomfort, and then she turned the object of venting to Wu Zhong.

So after Wu Zhong came in and greeted her politely, Jiang Wen didn't even have a smile on his face, and said indifferently: "Since Sui Hehua called me sister-in-law, then I have to tell the truth, I hope my cousin-in-law will not talk to me." A woman with ordinary knowledge."

"This... sister-in-law Yuan, please tell me." Wu Zhong had a premonition, and glanced at Xu Hehua, seeing that she was very expressionless and had no intention of helping him at all, so he could only bow down and wait.

This person looks decent, but what he did is called a bad thing.If they were not in front of her, Jiang Wen didn't want to care about it at all, but one or two of them were whimsical, and they wouldn't even let them live a good life for a year!

"It stands to reason that I shouldn't talk too much about other people's affairs, but it's your business if your own daughter can't teach well. Don't affect our Qiuwen's reputation."

Wu Zhong twitched the corners of his mouth, and said in confusion, "Sister-in-law Yuan, where did you start? I have always treated Wen'er as my own, and their sisters are also friendly..."

"Stop!" Jiang Wen stopped Wu Zhong's words as if he stopped Xu Hehua, "Don't tell me those nonsense, the second old man sent your son to the Lin family to study, if you are smart, you should know My son plans, your daughter, no matter whether I am a true brother and sister or pretending, she must be a good sister in the future, otherwise, she also wants to marry a good family? Do you think those wives are all blind? "

The old master Lin Er didn't tell Wu Zhong about his son entering the Lin family to study before, so he was very pleasantly surprised when he heard Jiang Wen's words at this time. He said happily: "Cheng'er joined the Lin family to study?"

Xu Hehua also nodded happily, and said to her husband: "The clan uncle that my grandfather took Cheng'er to visit yesterday, he said that Cheng'er is very talented!"

"Really?! Then when we go back, we need to prepare some apprentice gifts to send over." After finishing speaking, Wu Zhong excitedly grabbed Xu Hehua's hand, "Lotus, thank you..."

"Husband..." Xu Hehua also looked back at the other party gratefully.

The scar was healed and the pain was forgotten. Jiang Wen was so disgusted by the two people that he couldn't say what he was about to say. He looked at the two with a disgusted expression, then bent down and whispered in Qi Qiuwen's ear: "Yes Such a girl, you have worked hard."

Qi Qiuwen watched her mother coaxing her well, bit her lips but didn't say anything.

Jiang Wen patted her on the shoulder, and continued to whisper in her ear: "If I bother your mother, I will trouble your mother, but she really doesn't have a bad heart, but she can't change her mind if she is not good enough." .You learn to plan for yourself, don’t keep things in your heart, and ask your grandparents to make decisions about your future marriage, don’t let them mess around, you know?”

Upon hearing this, Qi Qiuwen nodded and agreed, "I see, Auntie."

"good."

Xue Shi and Xu Shi didn't come out until Xu Hehua's mother and daughter were picked up by Wu Zhong.Glancing in the direction outside the door again, Xue asked in disgust, "Let's go? Won't you come again?"

Mrs. Xu also despised Xu Hehua for helping others think about her grandson, so when Mrs. Xue finished speaking, she still nodded.

"Anyway, I told her not to come again." As for whether it worked or not, Jiang Wen couldn't control the legs growing on her body.

Naturally, Xu Hehua couldn't hide this matter from the old patriarch. He had high hopes for Lin Chen. He had never worried about Lin Chen's marriage before, because he believed that Jiang Wen would not be confused.

But he has lived for so many years, and he has seen too many things. Of course, he knows that people are not as good as God, but more people are hard to control, and the world is unpredictable...

"Come on! Prepare for me, I'll go out!"

The old patriarch's first wife, Mrs. Li, was supported by the servant girl and asked him, "Where are you going now?"

"Go to Jiang Wen's house." After changing his clothes, the old patriarch looked at the old wife and said, "There are some matters that should be done sooner rather than later. Before they go back to Yangzhou, I can carefully explain the stakes to them."

"Then you can call them over, why do you have to go there in person?" Mrs. Li remembered that he had not recovered from the wind and cold, and the ancestor worship was presided over by his son, so he complained a little: "Don't you know how old I am? Tossing around What?"

"You also said how old I am, how many years can I plan for the Lin family?" The old patriarch had some expectations in his heart, "Lin Xuan and the few children of Lin Chen's generation are talented and hardworking. The day when the Lin family gets up is just around the corner, so I naturally want to do as much as possible when I can."

Why doesn't Mrs. Li understand her husband, and because of understanding, she can only murmur a few words worriedly, but she still can't make up her mind to stop him.

It is precisely because of this dedication to consider the clan wholeheartedly, and being impartial and selfless, everyone in the Lin Jiatang clan respects the old patriarch very much, and so does Jiang Wen's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, including the Xue family.So even though he wondered why the old man came here, he still entertained him very warmly.

"Don't be too busy, I'm here to discuss something with you."

The three of Jiang Wen glanced at each other, and finally fixed their eyes on Mrs. Xu, who could only temporarily act as the spokesman, and asked respectfully, "Patriarch, what is it that I trouble you to come over in person?"

The old patriarch didn't hold back, and said straight to the point: "It's about Jiang Wen and Chen'er, and it's also about your family."

"This...please clarify your doubts."

The old patriarch stroked the beard on his chin, looked at Jiang Wen seriously, and said: "Although our Lin family is also a big family in Gusu, there have been no high-ranking officials for several generations except the direct branch, so I have high hopes for Lin Chen."

Jiang Wen nodded. She knew this. Originally, the old patriarch took care of their family. After Lin Chen's talent in reading was revealed, the old patriarch took care of their family even more.

So he also gave him a reassurance pill, saying: "Chen'er is studying with a great Confucian in the capital now, and the chances of his next subject in high school are still very high. You can rest assured that he will not slack off in the slightest."

"Not enough." The old patriarch's eyes were full of dissatisfaction, "Even if Chen'er's ranking is excellent, he is a young Jinshi with a background that is not as good as that of a high-ranking family. He has to work a hundred times harder than others to get the reward he deserves."

Jiang Wen didn't think much of it, and said very open-mindedly: "He already has an advantage over many poor students, and everything he needs to face in the future will become his experience. I don't think it matters if it is a little harder?"

"What if the rewards for hard work are minimal, or none at all?"

Jiang Wen was silent for a moment, then looked up at the old patriarch, and asked, "What exactly do you want to say?"

Holding his cane in both hands, the old patriarch said to Jiang Wen, "Do you have any plans to remarry?"

"Remarry?!" Jiang Wen's eyes widened, and the surprise was beyond words. "Old patriarch, why did you suddenly mention this matter?"

Relatively speaking, although Xue and Xu were also surprised, they both persuaded Jiang Wen in the early years, and they had no objection to Jiang Wen's remarriage in their hearts, so they immediately asked after hearing what the old patriarch said: "But Is there any suitable candidate?"

Jiang Wen's refusal that he was about to say was directly strangled in his mouth, so he could only look at his mother and mother-in-law helplessly, shut up temporarily and prepare to wait for other opportunities.

But the old patriarch calmly threw a big thunder at them, "It's Lin Ruhai from the direct branch."

"Master Lin?!" Jiang Wen immediately shook his head and said, "It's ridiculous! Don't say that Mrs. Lin has just passed away for more than half a year. We all know that Mr. Lin doesn't want to remarry, and it's like this between the two families. It doesn't matter, your choice is too absurd! No, no, no."

The Xue family and the Xu family looked at each other, and then said to the old patriarch: "Chen'er did say that Master Lin had no plans to marry a second wife, how could you have such an idea?"

The old patriarch said very calmly: "When Ruhai wrote to me and said that he wanted to take Chen'er as his adopted son, I had an idea. Not to mention that it is not against the rules for you to lose a husband and a wife. It's not someone who is aimless, he has already mentioned it to Ru Hai before he opened his mouth to you..."

"Master Lin agrees?" Jiang Wen didn't believe it.

The old patriarch was not angry with Jiang Wen for interrupting him, but continued: "When I wrote to the past for the first time, Ruhai politely refused, but when I wrote to him for the second time years ago, he didn't say anything again. reject."

"what?!"

Mrs. Xue patted Jiang Wen for a while, and said angrily: "Be careful, you will be surprised."

And Xu didn't care about the two mothers and daughters who were making trouble, and asked the old patriarch carefully: "If Mr. Lin is really a good candidate, it's just why did he change his mind?"

"It's because of Chen'er." The old patriarch drank the tea that Mrs. Xu personally gave him, and said slowly: "Ruhai loves daughters, and if he wants to accept Chen'er as his adopted son, he wants to give it to his daughter in a legitimate way." Find someone to rely on, and how can the adopted son have a stepson to change his name and make it more logical?"

After hearing this, Jiang Wen rolled his eyes at the place where no one was around, and said directly: "I won't do it! I don't work for others, and I don't want to remarry myself, so it's useless!"
