Chapter 423: Apology
Lin Qi, who had just stepped into the main hall with Lin Li, couldn't help but be stunned, and her feet were still in a posture of posing on the threshold, which showed that Lin Gang's words were also quite shocking to her.
In the scene, only Lin Xie, who was holding the baby, couldn't understand what was going on? When she married into the Lin family, she knew that her family was close to the big house, but she was estranged from the third room, but she didn't know anything about what happened back then.
Lin Bai's face was also very ugly, in fact, she didn't help the abuse back then, at this moment her husband finally apologized to the eldest sister and brother, she couldn't sit still, stepped forward to stand with her husband, and looked at Lin Long and the brothers apologetically, "Aunt is also ......ashamed."
Lin Lushi snorted at the beginning, not letting himself cry and lose his temper in public.
Lin Biao didn't say anything, he understood his father's selfish side, even if he didn't look down on him, but he couldn't be denied by His Holiness, even if he wasn't, he was still his father, so he could only watch his father act against his will, and now he could finally face the cousins and cousins of the big house calmly.
Finally waited for this sentence, Lin Long's eyes were also full of emotion, if she didn't have today's status and today's silver, she would not be able to wait for this sentence to be spit out from Lin Gang's mouth sincerely throughout her life. Even Lin Dong, who was sitting silently on the side, clenched his fists, this uncle finally lowered his head, it was not easy.
These words were righteous and awe-inspiring, and the shame on Lin Gang's face was even worse, he was really not a human being back then, "Sister Long, it was ...... back then." Uncle, I'm sorry for your brothers and sisters......"
Lin Long didn't move, she could afford Lin Gang's gift, thinking that back then, when their sister and brother were like that, how many clansmen came forward to help? It has always been easy to add icing on the cake, but it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow, and now she is equivalent to giving them charcoal in the snow regardless of what happened back then. "The second uncle is very polite, this is a little bit of our big house's heart to the clan, I can't write a single word, everyone understands this truth."
In the past, he had suspected that Lin Long's direct revenge was a pretentious gesture, but now he knew that he had spent the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, so he got up and said to Lin Long with a look of shame, "I thank Dafang for the generosity of all the clansmen." ”
Lin Gang suddenly looked surprised, he thought about hoping to get benefits from Lin Long, but he couldn't open that mouth, he knew how profitable the jade skin workshop in the big house was, and he knew it when he saw that Lin Nan's family was wearing Lingluo silk. And he also knew that Lin Dong was not very old, and Lin Lu's family was a concubine, Lin Qi did not occupy a long time, and the only person who could be the owner of a big house was Lin Long, just like when she was in Jiangnan, she often came to ask for living expenses.
"The world is a bit difficult now, but there will always be a good day, and the people should be optimistic." Lin Long said, "As for the lack of food and clothing, we still have some savings in the name of our big house, and we will load them in the car and send them to the clan to tide over the difficulties temporarily." ”
He shouldn't have entered Beijing, but he couldn't worry about his wife, children, grandson and others, so he was selfish and escorted his family to Beijing for refuge first, and then went back to deal with the affairs of the clan.
"It's okay, the injury is manageable." Lin Gang said, "After your second aunt and others are settled, I will set off to go back to deal with the affairs of the clan, and now the clan is also short of food and clothing......
"This time, my uncle entered Beijing this time, and the people in the clan have nothing to lose, right?" Whether it was sincere or false, she still had to ask about the situation of the Lin clan.
Only then will she forgive the second room and support this uncle to become the patriarch.
Lin Longquan saw the anxiety of the second uncle, and couldn't help but have a little schadenfreude in her heart, in fact, she was not really so generous and didn't care about the things of the year, sometimes she would have itchy teeth when she thought about it, and at that time she didn't know how many rows she had eaten this uncle. However, for the sake of her younger brother Lin Dong's future, she can't fall out with everyone in the Lin family, and she can never get along with the clan, which is one of the capitals of an individual based on society.
In the face of Lin Dong, he can still be a little calm, after all, Lin Dong is weak, and they don't have many opportunities to meet, it's not like Lin Long wants to come every once in a while to ask for silver, so he feels the deepest guilt about Lin Long.
Lin Long's attitude made Lin Gang, who had always been nervous, completely let go of the boulder in his heart, although they had reconciled when Lin Long set off to enter Beijing, but in the end, this time is different from the past, he has heard of how beautiful this niece is in the capital, he has heard about it in Jiangnan, and there is no doubt that Lin Long is the most outstanding daughter of the Lin family for many generations. Thinking of the situation when he made things difficult for her, he suddenly felt that a cold sweat was about to break out, if he knew that Lin Long would soar one day, he would treat her as a bodhisattva if he said anything, how could he be mean to their sisters and brothers for a little silver?
After all, he is his own uncle, and Lin Long also gives Lin Gang a lot of face, and he doesn't have a half-point frame with the county lord and Mrs. Hou, and he never mentions the unhappiness of the year, but he looks calm and clear.
By the time the two of them entered the hall talking and laughing, Lin Long had already met with his uncle Lin Gang and the others.
"That's it." She smiled and agreed.
This is said without leakage, which not only shows that Lin Long attaches great importance to her husband's family, but also does not lose the face of her mother's family, it can be regarded as both sides, it seems that Lin Long's thoughts on this sister are still effective.
Lin Li listened for a long time, and couldn't help but peek at Lin Qi, this cousin Qi was really impressed when she hadn't seen her for three days, and she had never seen her speak so well before.
"Brother Ting and Brother Hui are going to go to school at Old Marquis Ye's place, Brother Xing and Brother Chen had diarrhea yesterday, and my sister's mother-in-law didn't allow my sister to take them out of the house, saying that she was afraid of seeing the wind, and my sister could only follow her mother-in-law's words, and she couldn't make her mother-in-law unhappy in these small things, and she would see her at any time." Lin Qi quickly explained the reason why the four babies didn't come.
Lin Li laughed out loud when she heard this, this cousin has always been a wonderful person, "It's a pity that Cousin Long didn't bring them to the mansion, no, I will definitely go to the door of the Hou Mansion another day to take a look at these two pairs of twins." ”
"My sister said the same." Lin Qi's gloom is just a matter of a moment, she has always been optimistic, and she will soon be able to laugh again, "Anyway, I'm still young, and it's not too late to get pregnant until I get twenty, like my sister gave birth to four in one go, and now they all revolve around the child, I see that she is very busy every day, okay, I can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour." In the end, I couldn't help but joke with myself.
Lin Li didn't poke her sore spots, "This matter can't be rushed, it has to be done slowly, I think I came over like this back then, sooner or later." ”
Lin Qi shook her head with a gloomy look in her eyes, her little one only left a few days ago, and it was certain that she was not pregnant, but she was still using the prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor of the palace, this is a good thing to regulate her body, she adjusted her body now and it will be better to conceive a child in the future.
"He was asleep when he came out, so I let the nurse watch and didn't let him come out." Lin Li explained with a smile, and then quietly asked Lin Qi, "Is there any news from my cousin?" ”
Even though Lin Qi has always been thick-skinned, he couldn't help blushing at this time, but he still responded generously as he walked: "Thank you, cousin, for your congratulations." I haven't seen my cousin's baby yet? Why don't you take it out and take a look? ”
"That's good, we two just have something to say to ourselves." She also smiled and said affectionately, "I haven't congratulated my cousin on marrying a good husband yet." ”
Lin Li then set her eyes on the youngest cousin in this big house, Lin Qi was still inconspicuous when she left Beijing last time, but she didn't expect that now she is also a jewel, and her whole body is no less expensive than Lin Long, it can be seen that she is no worse than her sister Lin Long, and she can't help but sigh in her heart, this may be fate, even if you are envious, jealous and hateful?
Lin Qi watched the people in front of him leave, so he hooked Lin Li's arm, "Cousin Li, I'll accompany you." ”
Her talented father said that her husband Lin Biao will have a chance to soar to the sky sooner or later, but now it is difficult to perform in the shallows, and what is lacking is opportunity, so it will be a profitable thing for her to marry him.
Moreover, now seeing Lin Long's treatment of Lin Lu's family with a smile and respect, her eyes couldn't help blinking, it seemed that she had made a mistake before, thinking that this woman who started from the concubine was not worthy of respect, so she would show her face. At this time, her eyes rolled, it seemed that she also had to change her strategy, and she had to work hard to make Lin Lu's family close to her, and when she thought that in a few years, she would be able to be as beautiful as Lin Long, her heart suddenly became even hotter.
Lin Lu's family, who had gained face, smiled and followed Lin Bai's left and right, Lin Xie's hurriedly caught up, seeing that Lin Long was so kind, she had to work harder. Yesterday, her husband analyzed with her, asking her not to offend the big house and his party, with this relative, his career will be smoother in the future, and she naturally can't dismantle her husband's platform.
"What Erniang said is, second aunt, cousin, cousin, let's go into the house." Lin Long hugged Lin Wei and took the lead in walking forward.
Lin Lu saw that everyone was standing here, after all, he was the hostess of this mansion, so he stood up and smiled, "What are you talking like here, hurry up and enter the house." ”
It's just that the floods became more severe, and no one was enthusiastic about marriage anymore, after all, saving life is much more important than marriage.
The daughter of the Lin family also became popular, and everyone was vying to marry, if not for anything else, just to have a good child, which was completely worth it.
Lin Xie's family knew Lin Long's "great achievements", this cousin hugged four in three years as if he had heard a story, and when the Lin family clan in Jiangnan got the news, they were also dumbfounded, and then the daughters of the Lin family followed and had a good reputation, and everywhere they used Lin Long's ability as their biggest annotation in the marriage market.
Lin Long smiled, "I look about the same age as my Brother Xing'er and Brother Chen." After a pause, "I'm still a pair of twins, I can hold them, not to mention our brother Wei?" ”
"Yes." Lin Xie has always been very fond of her son Lin Wei, and when she saw Lin Long reaching out to hug her son, she hurriedly handed it over, "Cousin, be careful, this kid is not light." ”
"This is Brother Wei, right?" Lin Long saw that she was just excited but silent, so he smiled and asked the little guy in her arms.
Suspected of eating soft rice and sexual impotence, even if such a man is a jinshi, she doesn't want to give her it, this Lin Li has no capital in her eyes, and she has the bitter and mean side to the fullest, and the relationship with this sister-in-law is bound to become fire and water.
Besides, about Fengshuo's perennial medicine, some people speculate that he may even have difficulty having sex, so how can she take a look at Lin Li and his wife?
Although she was not polite to Lin Li, purely because Lin Li's background was not as good as her, she was Xiucai's daughter, what was Lin Li's background? It's just the squire's daughter, and she's not in the same rank. Of course, Lin Li is also married to a husband who was born in Jinshi, and it should be said that she should be admired, but a big man from Jinshi has been in his wife's maiden house for more than a year, and anyone will have some other ideas.
There was a hint of excitement in Lin Xie's eyes, she didn't expect a noble lady like Lin Long to be so kind to her, even if they were relatives with each other, but the status difference was too big, she was actually afraid that this husband's cousin would not recognize poor relatives in her eyes, and she even had a draft in her heart about how to please Lin Long, after all, such a backer doesn't know how to please him, then he really has no vision.
Lin Long also stepped forward and bent down to help her up, "Cousin-in-law, what she said makes me embarrassed, we are all a family, besides, you are praising me for my good looks, I am too late to be happy, how can I worry about you?" ”
She curtsied and bowed a non-standard salute, as the daughter of a talented woman in the countryside, it was not easy to make such a salute on this occasion, "I'm out of shape and making jokes, cousin Long, don't worry about me......"
Lin Xie also came back to his senses at this time, his face was flushed with shame, originally that sentence was just what he thought in his heart, but he didn't expect her to lose her temper and say it in public, it was really embarrassing, and she didn't dare to look at her mother-in-law Lin Bai.
She smiled, and the ladies of the Lin family also laughed, and the embarrassing atmosphere was swept away.
At this time, she smiled, "My cousin-in-law praised it falsely, but this skin was given by my father, and beauty and ugliness are determined by heaven." ”
The plan has been thought out, who would have thought that he would not be able to catch up with this change, Lin Xie actually came up with such a ridiculous sentence.
When she first saw this Lin Xie clan, she wanted to take the opportunity to give her a dismount, so that she could know who was the master and who was the guest? This time it was their second room and the family who went to their big house, and it was no longer the time when their sisters and brothers were under the fence in the past, of course, the rules had to be set by their big house, and the second room could not be used as a blessing.
Sure enough, as she guessed, Lin Xie didn't respect her second mother as soon as she arrived at the Lin Mansion, and when she received the news, she was not happy. Although Lin Lu's family was just a concubine, she gave them great help and encouragement in the difficult days of that year, so she couldn't see her second mother being wronged.
Lin Long glanced at her sister who was laughing, and then looked at Lin Xie's family, she didn't expect Lin Biao's daughter-in-law to be such an interesting person, she actually didn't know anything about Lin Biao's daughter-in-law, Lin Li's letter to her was indispensable to complain about this eldest sister-in-law, it can be seen that the relationship between sister-in-law and sister-in-law has dropped to the freezing point, so when she heard the news that Lin Gang's family entered Beijing, she was worried that Lin Xie's family would be a thorn, and it would not be a good thing to show her second mother when the time came.
Huo Zhou's stroke symptoms are becoming more and more severe, as if she is on par with her grandmother Quan Xiao, and she really doesn't take this old woman to heart, after all, she can't make any more moths. However, the child still has to be born, this is the continuation of her and Huo Yuan's bloodline, just thinking about it will make her heart warm.
She just put this matter aside, even if she doesn't have this glamorous light, she can fascinate her husband to death, and conceiving a child is her top priority, even if Huo Yuan often says that she doesn't want her to be born too early, she just takes it as a deaf ear.
Later, it was the second mother Lin Lushi who gave her the answer, her sister is eighteen years old, it is the eighteenth change of the female college, plus the birth of an heir and proper maintenance, this will become more and more dazzling, and when she also gives birth to a child at this age, it will be equally charming.
She also privately asked her sister if she had researched any secret recipes, and quickly gave her a copy, she also wanted this glamorous light to completely fascinate Huo Yuan. Her sister glared at her angrily, and then left a sentence, what is the secret recipe? If I have something good, can I be without you? Zhenri is cranky and has no shape.
It's a pity that my brother-in-law is still in Jiangnan for disaster relief and has not come back, otherwise I am afraid that my brother-in-law will not come to court sooner, and I just want to indulge in the gentle township and not wake up.
"Sister, I didn't expect my sister-in-law to be so discerning." Lin Qi burst out laughing, and looked at her sister narrowly, in fact, her sister was really much more beautiful than before, and her sister in the past was not so eye-catching, but now it is really like a blooming rose, which makes people unable to take their eyes off.
Even Lin Li's face was incredible, she also deliberately took a few more glances at this sister-in-law, compared with the usual snarky, this sister-in-law now looks like a country woman entering the city, she also wants to follow her mother to cover her face, it is really embarrassing.
There has never been a moment when Lin Bai was so suspicious of himself, and his vision was so poor.
As soon as the words came out, everyone suddenly looked at Lin Xie in a speechless daze, why is this Lin Xie's compliment so different, Lin Bai even hid his face and didn't dare to look at everyone, how can this daughter-in-law look like a dirt bun at this time, what kind of vision did she choose this daughter-in-law in the first place?
