Seeing that he didn't think so, Lin Long couldn't help but clench his fist and slap him lightly several times, and couldn't help but complain, "I found that the older a man is, the less he is a thing, and the more obscene he is." ”

"You're talking uncle?" Ye Xuyao grabbed her Mifen fist, took her into his arms, and kissed her lightly on the lips.

Lin Long nestled in his arms, "Isn't it?" Even if my former aunt is no longer a thing, I think it's better than the current one. ”

If it weren't for Zhong Yuyan and Quan Yingzi's marriage going wrong, and the waves behind it, it is estimated that Zhong Guo's would not have gone to a dead end, of course, Zhong Guo's temperament was extreme, and he would eventually harm others and himself.

"Don't mention her, spoiler." Ye Xuyao's expression immediately turned cold.

If it weren't for his uncle's face, he would have wanted to reprimand Zhong Zheng's shameless new aunt at that time, knowing that there is a difference between men and women, and he doesn't know how to avoid suspicion, sooner or later he will cause trouble.

Lin Long also pursed his lips, such a woman was indeed disappointed when she mentioned it, "I see that there will be chaos in the Shenwu Marquis Mansion in the future." ”

"The daughter of this family, you will have less contact in the future, that is, the grandmother's condition is worrying, if it is not for the unwillingness of the old man, it is better to be sent to our house to recuperate." Ye Xuyao said.

Speaking of Zhong You's condition, Lin Long had to talk to her husband.

Ye Xuyao said, "We can only do our best to obey the destiny of heaven now, my grandmother is old, and she knows it herself, so we can do our part as the younger generation." ”

"I think it's the same, I'm afraid that my mother-in-law will be sad." Lin Long sighed.

When Zhong Youshi woke up, the imperial doctor still came over to check the pulse again, saying that this level was barely passed, but the old lady's body could not recover after losing her confidence, and her life would not be long, and she could barely hang her life after taking medicine.

Ye Zhongshi almost fainted when she heard it, but in front of her mother, she couldn't show it at all, so she could only say some good things to comfort her mother, so that her mother could relax and live longer.

"Birth, old age, sickness and death, we mortals can't resist it, my mother will see it." Ye Xuyao said.

No matter who it is, there will be a day when they will die, and there is no feast in the world that will not be dispersed.

Lin Long sighed again, thinking of his father who died young, he was still sad after all, not to mention that Ye Zhong's relationship with Zhong You's was so good, how could he say that he could give it up?

Ye Xuyao patted her on the back, seeing that she was not in a high mood, and swallowed back her stomach when she originally said it.

When the three of them returned to the house, the lights were already on.

As soon as Lin Long got out of the carriage, Su Miaojue and Ye Manzi greeted him.

Su Miaojue said quickly: "Sister-in-law, is my grandmother okay?" ”

"Fortunately, now my mother-in-law is still serving in the Shenwu Marquis Mansion, and I am afraid that it will take a few days to come back." Lin Long said.

Although Ye Zhong said that he would return home tomorrow, according to her, she was afraid that she would not be able to pull away for three or five days, especially after seeing Zhong Zheng's wonders, Ye Zhong was even more worried about his mother.

"That's good, I'm really afraid that my grandmother will have a case, and I'll go to visit tomorrow." Ye Manzi patted his chest and said.

"It's okay, my grandmother will feel better when she sees you." Lin Long patted his sister-in-law on the shoulder and said.

The three women talked for a while, and the brothers Ye Xuyao and Ye Xurong came over.

Lin Long asked Ye Xurong to lead Su Miaojue back to the courtyard, and when the uncle and his wife left, they sent Ye Manzi back.

"Sister-in-law, don't be busy, I'll just go back by myself, it's not like there is no mother-in-law and girl around, why do you have to use your people to send it?" Ye Manzi covered his mouth and smiled, "You've been busy all day today, so let's go back to South Park to rest first." ”

After saying that, he blessed his brother and sister-in-law, and then turned around and left with a smile.

"This girl has grown up a lot." Ye Xuyao praised for the first time.

Lin Long glanced at her husband, "You just underestimate your sister-in-law too much, she has changed a lot over the years, she is no longer the annoying look I had when I first entered the door, you have to change your opinion of her as a brother." ”

"Didn't I praise her?" Ye Xuyao helped his wife to get on the mule cart.

Lin Long didn't fight with him at this time, she treated Ye Manzi as if she were her own sister now, so naturally she couldn't tolerate others insulting this girl.

returned to Nanyuan, changed into home clothes, and after dinner, Ye Xuyao went to the study with his wife to talk.

"What's the point, what's so weird and weird?"

"I have something to tell you, but you have to promise me that you will be calm when you hear it."

His wife's menstrual period was half a month late, and he estimated that he should be pregnant, but he hadn't found a doctor to diagnose it yet, but he was still cautious so as not to regret it.

Lin Long glanced at her husband, although she hadn't asked the doctor to take the pulse, but she was not pregnant for the first time, so she naturally felt something, "If you have something to say, say it quickly, you don't know that it is more uncomfortable to hang my appetite like this." ”

Ye Xuyao thought about it, and besides, the husband and wife were not people who had never experienced anything, and this matter was not a big deal, "Okay, Brother Rong invited himself to go out of Beijing on an errand." ”

"What?" Lin Long's eyes widened suddenly, and he bounced up from the chair, "What kind of errand did he do when he went out of Beijing?" No, you'll have to explain this to me. ”

Now that the end of the year is approaching, the little sister Lin Qi is about to give birth again, the affairs of the Gu family have passed, she feels that Brother Dong should have recovered a lot, and she is thinking about discussing marriage for him in the spring next year, he is good, he actually wants to run out?

Lin Long's expression really couldn't be called kind.

"When you sit down, you say that you are not allowed to move, what will you do if you hurt the child when the time comes?" Ye Xuyao pulled her to sit down and listened to him.

Lin Long patted his chest, "I'm not worried, you also know that Brother Dong is the only seedling of our Lin family, if he has three longs and two shorts, won't our Lin family be extinct?" Hurriedly reached out and grabbed her husband's sleeve, "Xu Yao, tell me honestly, what kind of errand did he recommend himself?" ”

She intuitively felt that this matter was not simple, otherwise Brother Dong would not have invited her husband to be a lobbyist, and would definitely come to inform her in person.

Ye Xuyao held her somewhat cold hand with his backhand, looking a little displeased, and the big girl came in to make the charcoal basin more vigorous.

"You should say it quickly, it's not too late to do this trivial thing later." Lin Long urged.

Ye Xuyao glared at her, "Even if you don't care about the big one, you have to take care of the small one, I can't let you leave our daughter cold." ”

"Girl, girl, you know your daughter, let me tell you, Xiaoqi, I still have to give birth to a son, and I will be angry with you." Lin Long choked back, knowing that she was in a hurry, but she didn't say anything in detail.

Ye Xuyao couldn't help but silently recite the famous words of Master Confucius, only women and villains are difficult to raise, but he is afraid that his wife will really have a fetal gas, so a good man will not fight with a woman.

He thought that he was so desperate for a daughter, this Xiaoqi should be a lovely girl, right.

"Actually, it's not a big deal, there was turmoil in the northwest, and some thugs slaughtered several villages in a row, and even attacked the local government offices......

"You're not going to tell me that Brother Dong is going to such a dangerous place?"

Lin Long didn't wait for her husband to finish speaking, she interrupted him with a serious expression, just hearing about this matter, she felt that her scalp was numb, her younger brother was just a weak scholar, if there was a case there, how would it be good?

Ye Xuyao said in a deep voice, "You listen to me first before making a conclusion." ”

Only then did Lin Long hold back her temperament and listen to her husband tell the whole story.

The northwest of the Dashun Dynasty has always been relatively desolate, and it does not border Mongolia, so it has always been inconspicuous in the Central Plains. However, even if Lin Long has a limited knowledge of current affairs and politics, she still knows that the people in that area are fierce, and more importantly, the local people believe in religion.

With such an extreme religious belief, if someone is willing to provoke it, I am afraid that a lot of things will happen, and it is really happening now.

But what she didn't expect was that her younger brother was actually involved.

"You said that Brother Dong sent a letter to the emperor to quell the rebellion?" Lin Long said hurriedly, she didn't expect Lin Dong, who had always been weak, to have such an outrageous move.

Ye Xuyao nodded, "The Holy Lord agrees with his suggestion very much, and says that he is a cultivable material, so he took the opportunity to make him the supervisor of this northwest counterinsurgency, of course, the Holy Lord wants to give him a chance to implement his counterinsurgency strategy." ”

"But it's so dangerous......"

"You are a woman's opinion, to tell you the truth, my brother-in-law's move was beyond my expectations, but it made me change my opinion of him, and he is indeed more courageous than Brother Rong, of course, Brother Rong is tired of his family, and his brother-in-law is frustrated in love, so he must use his energy on his career."

In fact, to put it bluntly, Lin Dong has no intention of having a child now, and it can also be said that he has not forgotten his love for Gu Xuefei.

When Lin Long heard this, she sat there stunned and didn't say a word, for her, she naturally hoped that Lin Dong would be able to rise to a high position peacefully and smoothly, but how could it be so easy in reality?

Although the path chosen by Brother Dong is a bit bumpy, it is the fastest to achieve results, if he performs well this time, it will be much faster than Ye Xurong to climb up the opportunity to wait for qualifications, but she just can't rest assured.

Ye Xuyao got up and hugged her tightly, "Don't think too much, I said you have to learn to let go, Brother Rong is not a child, he knows what to do and what not to do, you have to have confidence in him." ”

Lin Long reached out and hugged her husband's waist, "I know." ”

She understands this truth better than anyone else, and she understands it, but her heart is still tight.

"This is an opportunity, if my brother-in-law can seize it, with me and my brother-in-law as backers, it is not a dream for the Lin family to rise again."

Ye Xuyao knows his wife's knot, as the daughter of the Lin family, she very much hopes to reproduce the glory of her grandfather Lin Youde when he was reborn, rather than just showing up as Mrs. Xiangyang Hou.

The family is always the foundation of a person's foothold, so he really wants to help her realize her wish, but he also has to ask Lin Dong to fight for it, obviously this brother-in-law did not disappoint him.

Because of this, Lin Long had insomnia all night, tossing and turning, dreaming of his grandfather for a while, dreaming of his father for a while, and barely falling asleep until dawn.

When Ye Xuyao got up and went to the morning court, he sighed and reached out to caress her somewhat haggard face, she just thought too much and carried too much.

Perhaps this is the fate of the eldest son or eldest daughter.

"Don't make noise about grandma, if there is a lady in charge who comes to work, let them wait under the porch."

Before leaving the door, he commanded.

"Yes, uncle." A group of big girls bent their knees in response.

It was still quiet outside, and when Lin Long woke up, it was almost noon, and when he saw the hourglass, he hurriedly got up.

Hurriedly summoned people to come in and wait for freshening, and as soon as I arrived in the outer room, through the window, I saw a group of housekeepers waiting to reply under the porch, and it seemed that they had to deal with the accumulated household affairs first.

After dealing with the important family affairs, I learned that Su Miaojue and Ye Manzi went to the Shenwu Marquis Mansion to visit their grandmother, so they called the incense rafters and Su Wen to take care of their house, and then picked up Xiaoliu, who was already sitting, and got into the carriage and rushed back to her parents' house.

Presumably, Lin Dong wants to supervise the army to go to the northwest to quell the rebellion, and his family should also know about it.

As soon as her carriage entered the Lin Mansion, she saw the pot-bellied Lin Qi being carefully helped down from the carriage by two mothers-in-law, and she didn't delay, she got off the carriage directly with her little son in her arms.

"It's almost born, what are you doing when you go back to your parents' house? If there's something to do, let's just come over. She handed over her youngest son to the nurse and stepped forward to help her sister.

"Brother Dong is going to the northwest to quell the rebellion, do you know?" Lin Qi did not answer the rhetorical question.

"Yes." Lin Long's face sank, "Did my brother-in-law tell you?" ”

"I scolded Huo Yuan yesterday, he was hiding in the capital by himself, but he asked my younger brother to go there to die, I was really angry." Lin Qi has always been short-tempered, and he will say anything directly.

Lin Long glanced at her big belly, "You said you were about to give birth, can your brother-in-law still run out?" Is he in the mood? It's enough to worry about you. ”

She understands and approves very much that Huo Yuan did not ask for orders to quell the rebellion, is it decent for a woman to give birth without a man by her side?

When Lin Qi heard this, she shut up and stopped complaining, in fact, she also understood this truth, Huo Yuan also coaxed her for a night yesterday, but she just couldn't stop worrying.

"Is it possible to go there? In case there is a bad thing, won't our Lin family have to break off? ”

"What are you talking about? Do you think Brother Dong looks like a short-lived appearance? ”

was reprimanded by Lin Long, Lin Qi's mood was better, in fact, Lin Dong didn't look gentle and harmless, he was extremely reluctant, once he decided something, nine horses couldn't pull it back, and the idea of marrying Gu Xuefei was not an example.

The two sisters asked someone from the Lin Mansion to ask, only then did they know that Lin Lu's was sick in bed yesterday, and after glancing at each other, the two of them sped up their steps to the main house where Lin Lu's lived.

There was a smell of medicine coming out of the room, and Lin Lu was lying on the bed with a pale face, and he could see that the condition was coming very quickly.

"I heard that it's good before, why is Erniang sick?"

As soon as the two sisters entered the house, Lin Long helped her sister sit down, and immediately stepped forward to look at Lin Lu's face, and said worriedly.

Lin Lushi waved his hand, "I'm not in the way, your sisters are back just in time, hurry up and persuade Brother Dong not to do stupid things, go to the northwest, there is a shortage of soldiers there, my heart beats hard just thinking about this." After a pause, "I told him yesterday, but he didn't listen, he had to go his own way, how do you say this is good?" ”

In the end, she almost cried, this disease came out of her anger yesterday, and she woke up in the morning and couldn't get out of bed.

"Brother Dong told you?" Lin Long took the decoction from the maid and fed it to Lin Lu personally.

Lin Lushi gently pushed away, "I have a small matter of drinking medicine, and I will drink it myself later, so it is the right thing for you to hurry up and persuade Brother Dong to change his mind......"

"Erniang, drink the medicine." Lin Long's face sank, and he couldn't refute it.

Lin Lu had always known Lin Long's temperament, and did not urge her to persuade Lin Dong to change his mind, but took the medicine bowl and drank it slowly.

"I don't approve of this, I'll tell my brother Dong about a daughter-in-law next year, let him take care of it, and don't keep thinking about running to that dangerous place." Lin Qi's tone was not good.

Lin Long saw that Lin Lu had drunk the medicine, so he looked directly at his sister, "You are all a person who is about to give birth, and you still have such a violent temper, don't give birth to a baby who will also have a bad temper." ”

"How so?" Lin Qi stroked his big belly.

Lin Long asked rhetorically, "Why not?" ”

Lin Qi was a little worried and restrained his temper.

Lin Long said again, "Let's listen to what Brother Dong has to say about this matter and then make a conclusion, in fact, wealth and wealth are in danger, if Brother Dong can pass this level, then Qingyun is just around the corner." ”

"Then I'd rather not go straight to the top, but also want him to be safe." Lin Lu hurriedly swallowed the medicinal juice.

"I think so too, anyway, there will be a chance in the future, why do you have to fight this time?" Lin Qi immediately followed up.

Lin Long sighed and said, "What do we think, does it matter?" What does Brother Dong think when it is critical. ”

They didn't know about this until now, so it can be seen that Lin Dong had already made his own decision.

Lin Qi and Lin Lushi, you look at me, I look at you, and sigh with a sigh.

In the temple on the outskirts of the capital, Lin Dong personally lit the tower incense, and then watched the monks hang it up, and recited a string of scriptures with his hands folded.

Gu Guo, who came here to make incense today, happened to see this scene outside the door, looked at Lin Dong, who had lost a lot of weight, and then looked at the tower incense that was hung high, and heard Lin Dong personally say that he was praying for Gu Xuefei under the Nine Springs, and her eyes couldn't help but be foggy.

When Lin Dong added sesame oil and turned to come out, he was also stunned when he saw Gu Guo.

The small garden outside the temple, which is in winter at the moment, is covered with a layer of snow, which looks crystal clear and very beautiful.

"Do you still remember Sister Fei'er?" The ancient Guo clan is quiet and authentic.

At the beginning, she was selfish when she took a fancy to Lin Dong as her son-in-law, but now that the other party treats her daughter, she can't help but be moved.

"The beauty has passed away, what can I remember again?" Lin Dong's face didn't have too much expression, he experienced emotional wounds, his gentleness faded away, replaced by a touch of frost, "Today is the ancient girl's seventy-seven forty-nine, I want to pray for her to be blessed and let her ascend to bliss as soon as possible." ”

Looking at the transformation of this young man, Gu Guo's heart was also painful, "It's hard for you to still have this heart, I thank you for Sister Fei'er." ”

"Madame Gu doesn't need to say that, as far as I am concerned, Miss Gu will always live in my heart."

Lin Dong knew that he would never forget Gu Xuefei in this life, but for the sake of his family's peace of mind, he would never mention this lost relationship again for the rest of his life.

Gu Guo could only sigh to himself that his daughter was not blessed, maybe his daughter was right, if she had adopted her strategy, it is estimated that the young man in front of him would not forgive her daughter, let alone remember her forever?

"You will definitely marry a good girl in the future, but our sister Fei's life is not blessed."

This is the first time, she opened her heart and wished Lin Dong a good girl in the future. Before that, she would definitely not bless the other party, after all, she still felt sorry for her daughter.

Now I found out that the other party was just as sad, and this heartbreak made her, a mother, also sad.

"Mrs. Xie Gu Ji Yan." Lin Dong made a gesture at the other party.

He knew that Gu Guo's family didn't like him so much, but the other party's blessing was really beyond his expectations, and he couldn't be single for Gu Xuefei for the rest of his life, as the only son of the Lin family, he had unfulfilled obligations, and marrying a wife and having children was one of them.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, Gu Guo suddenly called out to him, "Wait." ”

Lin Dong stopped at the moment, watched her hurriedly step forward, and took out a peace charm from her cuff, "I heard my grandson say that you are going to go to the northwest with the army as a prison guard, this is the peace charm I just asked for, you wear it on your body to keep safe." ”

Lin Dong was slightly stunned, he didn't expect Gu Guo to give him a peace charm.

After being stunned, he took it with both hands and said solemnly, "Thank you, Mrs. Gu." ”

Gu Guo reached out and patted him on the shoulder, "It's a good thing for young people to be ambitious, but don't let your family worry too much. ”

If Lin Dong died in the northwest, she thought that her sister Fei would not be able to live, and this peace charm was not only given to Lin Dong to keep her safe, but also to keep her daughter safe?

I hope this debt can be washed away in the next life, and don't suffer these two lovers anymore.

Lin Dong didn't know Gu Guo's complicated feelings, so he put the peace charm intimately, and then made another goodbye and left.

Gu Guo didn't turn around and leave immediately, standing in place and watching the figure of this young man gradually leave his eyes, if he really became her son-in-law, how good would it be?

With a long sigh, she turned around a little lonely, letting the little wind and snow blow down on her.

When Lin Dong returned to the house from the temple, it was already approaching evening, he walked to the porch, patted the snowflakes on his body, and before he went to visit the sick Erniang, he saw his mother Quan Meihuan staggering over.

As soon as he saw him, he stepped forward and hugged him and said sharply, "Don't go, my mother doesn't allow you to go to such a dangerous place, Brother Dong, you just stay in the capital honestly, do you hear?" ”
