Chapter 238: Distant relative

After this incident, Lu Mansion finally calmed down. Naturally, Lin Jinrong would not let go of this opportunity to strengthen her own foundation. She walked forward steadily and cautiously, without arrogance or rashness, and became more and more handy in taking care of housework. Although occasionally there would be small conflicts with Tu and Lin Yuzhen, but Generally everything went according to her plan...without the slightest mistake, her life was busy and fulfilling, and her mood was calm.
The tea shop opened smoothly and became a small and elegant place in Pingzhou City. A group of scholars, led by Wu Xiang and others, love to reciting poems and writing poems. There are high-profile guests from the south of the Yangtze River to do business here, and they also love to spend time here. : The sorghum planted in the saline-alkali soil has a good harvest, and the tenant tenants are very satisfied: Lin Shiquan is more and more mature, discussing with Lin Jinrong, only waiting for Wu Xiang to help get the household registration, open a fragrance medicine branch there.
Tao Fengtang set up a very beautiful house in the south of the Yangtze River. When Lin Jinrong communicated with Lin Jinyin, he tried to persuade her to persuade Tao Fengtang to buy more properties. He also said that Jiangnan is really a place worth visiting, even if he is reluctant to move his home there. Living for a few years is also a great try. Lin Jinyin was a little tempted, but still undecided, Lin Jinrong was not in a hurry, and only inadvertently revealed a little Jiangnan style in his monthly letter to the lonely Tao Shunqin.
Busy days always pass quickly, and in a blink of an eye, summer and winter come, it is another half of the year.
Near the winter solstice, the sky finally cleared after a few days of haze. Lin Jinrong and Lin Shiquan had checked their accounts, and when they returned home they had a deal with the stewards. He was exhausted, so he left the rest to Lichee and Fangzhu. Go ahead and wait for a while on the couch basking in the sun. Longan came in and said, "Grandma, please come over."
Lin Jinrong couldn't help getting up, "Do you know what's the matter?"
"I don't know.
Longan said cautiously: "But just now I heard that the grandma is pregnant. "While speaking, she quietly glanced at Lin Jinrong, and thought to herself, this grandma has been in the door for more than half a year, and there is no movement. Although it is not obvious on the surface, it is anxious to come, right? I certainly don't like hearing this. News. When Longan thought about it this way, she was a little self-righteous and cautious.
Lin Jinrong knew her very deeply. She knew that she was thinking and did not say anything when she looked at her nose. She only said with a faint expression: "Today the second master is going home, remember to let the kitchen bring the meal later, take a nap on the lamb, and then Warm up a pot of wine."
Longan should be arranged, not to mention it.
After Lin Jinrong finished the decoration, he stood at the door and looked at the longan who was instructing the little girls to do things under the corridor. The longan has grown into a hairpin of crows and crows. There is a hairpin with a gorgeous colored plum huā. The hairpins are more and more snow-white, and the head is not tall or short. The natural sloping shoulders and water snake waist, even if you wear thick clothes and plain clothes in winter, it still hides it. It is the most beautiful age for a woman if she doesn't hold herself up.
Lin Jinrong quickly retracted his gaze, called Cherie, steadily descended the steps, and walked outside the courtyard. It was midwinter at this time. Although the sky was clear and the sun could not shine, it was still cold and gloomy. Lin Jin allowed not to take photos and walked in sunny places. The sun was shining warmly on his body, making the bones crisp. I just want to lie flat and have a good sleep.
Cherry happily followed her and chattered endlessly: "Grandma, I really like the sun. What if it’s sunny and not snowing every day? You should consume less charcoal at home."
Lin Jinrong smiled and said, "Silly girl, if it's sunny every day, you should drink northwest wind next year without snow."
Cherry stuck out her tongue, still carefree and cheerful. The two masters and servants deliberately went around the outside for a long time, and only entered Lin Yuzhen's door after getting warm.
Lu Yun was leaning against the smoked cage in a daze. Seeing Lin Jinrong coming in, he hurriedly got up and said hello to her and resigned. Lin Jinrong's eyes were sharp. Seeing that Lu Yun's eyes were a little red, Lin Yuzhen's complexion was not good, so she didn't talk much, saluted quietly, and sat aside waiting for Lin Yuzhen to speak.
Lin Yuzhen recorded a handful of orange peel and held it in her hand, motioned Lin Jinrong to help lift up the smoked cage, and threw the orange peel into the charcoal basin, and said casually: "The day after tomorrow will be your seventh sister's wedding banquet."
The orange peel was burned by the charcoal fire, causing a burst of blue smoke, gradually drying and wrinkling, turning black and red, and exuding a faint fragrance. Lin Jinrong took a deep breath and said: "He Yi has arranged it, aunt But what else is there to order?"
Lin Yuzhen frowned slightly and said, "A distant relative from your second aunt's family is coming to congratulate him. I don't know if you remember it. It's Jin, called Chenyu, who counts as your second aunt's cousin. Lived in the house for half a month."
Lin Jinrong thought she would talk about Lu's pregnancy, but when she saw that, she immediately became a little energetic. Although Lin Yuzhen was unclear about it, isn't it about Lu Yun's future husband's family? It's just that Lin Yuzhen was impatient to tell her about it at that time. She didn't know about it until the matter had been settled. She didn't know the specific process, only remembering that the marriage was repeated several times before it was finished. But at this moment she naturally can't say that she knows, she just said in a daze, "I was young at that time, I can't remember."
Lin Yuzhen didn't care if Lin Jinrong remembered it or not, she originally wanted to discuss it with someone relatively trustworthy. "I remember a little in a daze, but I can't remember his looks anymore after being too old. Moreover, he was still young at that time, and he will change when he grows up. Listening to your second aunt said that he is now a talented person, and I don't know the truth. "
Lin Jinrong cautiously said: "Second aunt has not returned to Ning for many years, and she rarely interacts with the Jin family on weekdays. She knew it from others, but she couldn't take it seriously. What happened to this person?" Lin Yuzhen didn't want to say more, he hesitated. Xie Fang said: "This person has now become the magistrate of Qing County over Yizhou." Lin Jinrong pretended to be happy: "That's really good, it's not easy at a young age. But isn't he an official now? Yizhou is a few thousand miles away from us, so how can you come here to congratulate?" Lin Yuzhen whispered in embarrassment, "It's not him, it's his mother and sister-in-law.
The age is not too young, it's twenty-seven-eight. He had been studying in his early years and never married, so he was delayed. There is only one widow mother and elder brother-in-law in the family, and the family situation is also pretty good, and there is no problem in living. "
At this time, there are many children of other families who have delayed their marriage for the sake of their future. Although this one is a little older, he is a good official, and he is not bad. Lin Jinrong followed Lin Yu,
Jane said: "If you are diligent and have good character, that's not bad. It's just that you get a little older and you're far away." But it’s hard to guarantee that you will marry someone close to home. In the future, you won’t be close. Maybe you will go further.
Lin Yuzhen kept making excuses. When she thought of Lu Jianxin’s letter, Mrs. Lu’s warning made her irritable and distressed. He threw the orange petals in his hand into the crystal tray: "I think it's pretty good. After all, Ayun is really old, but she doesn't want to, and she doesn't want to listen to me. She just said that this person is so old. , There must be a concubine by my side. What do I say is a concubine? But it exists like a chicken and dog. If you don't like it, you will sell it. She doesn't listen. She doesn't have a sister. Go and persuade her for me. "To persuade people who are unwilling to marry, and those who are above the top to marry, there is no more difficult task than this. Lin Jinrong murmured secretly, but couldn't help but said: "I and A Yun have never mentioned this before. , I don’t know if she would like to listen to me.
This person is nearly ten years older than Lu Yun, and he is not a well-known talent. At this age, he is just a magistrate of Zhongxia County, and he does not know what his looks and qualities are. , Compared with Wu Xiang, it's a bit far behind. Lin Yuzhen has accepted the reality, but Lu Yun has not yet. It can also be said that Lu Yun understands the reality, but is still unwilling to admit it, let alone accept it. What can I do if I can call Lin Jinrong?
Lin Yuzhen is really one of the first two adults, and she is in a hurry to go to the doctor: "You just have to try.
I knew I shouldn't have told her. This is great, she won't even go to your seventh sister's wedding banquet. "If you don’t go, how can you look at each other? If you don’t go, where can you find such a relatively good relationship in the future? If you drag it down year after year, it is impossible to really stay at home for a lifetime and give people a joke for a lifetime. No? Or, listen to the arrangements made by Lu Jianxin or Mrs. Lu? At that time, they couldn't help their mother and daughter at all. Men always look at problems differently from women. Who knows who they will match? Maybe it's better than this.
Lin Jinrong had to stand up: "Then I will try it first.
"Not in a hurry, she just lost her temper with me. She will refuse to see you when you go now, and she won't listen to you when you see you. You can try to persuade her when she feels better in the evening." Lin Yuzhen lightly Taking a sip of tea, he motioned Lin Jinrong to sit down: "I heard that, your sister-in-law is pregnant again. The old lady plans to marry Lu Jing next fall."
Lin Jinrong dropped his head and said nothing while playing with the scarlet jade ring around his waist.
Lin Yuzhen frowned and said, "What the is going on with you? He is not reluctant to go home often. I think he treats you well, you young couple..." At this point, she couldn't speak anymore. Said: "Isn’t the old Mr. Shui who treated your mother pretty good? I think you’d better go back this time and talk to your mother, asking him to show you! Otherwise, it’s going to be delayed. When Lu Jing's wife comes in, I see what you do!"
Lin Jinrong whispered: "Yes." Seeing her lowering her eyebrows, Lin Yuzhen thought it would be a rare time for her to be so obedient, so she said again: "I think the eldest husband and wife deliberately said these two days! I heard that your second aunt lives in the country, eating fast and reciting the Buddha every day, making good relationships, and gaining a good reputation. Now, someone is going to talk about her in front of your grandmother. It is the busiest time for the family to send festival items, to celebrate the winter, and to keep the winter. It happened that at this time Lu clan broke out that he was pregnant and wanted to have a baby. Isn't that just for the Song clan to come back to create a chance?
