Chapter 69: The Han family came to Beijing, as it should be
On February 2, Lin Liangchen received a letter from Xu Jun.
It said that Xu Jun took his family on the boat to the capital after the Chinese New Year, and in addition, Lin Liangchen's housekeeper brought a lot of things and came to the capital together, a month's journey, about the tenth day of February.
Lin Liangchen put the letter away and sighed secretly, the Han family is finally coming to the capital, I just hope that when the time comes, the Han family will not be so ignorant and ignorant, just worry about making trouble with her, otherwise, if this makes trouble, I am afraid that it will be ugly at that time.
Lin Liangchen was worried about Han's coming, and Han, who had been on the boat for a long time, asked Xu Jun in high spirits: "Jun'er, this ship has been gone for so long, when will it arrive in the capital?" β
Han, who has never been far away, has been very excited since the day he left Dahe Village, and now, after more than half a month's effort, Han's enthusiasm has not diminished, but also has a vague upward trend.
"Mother, I said it earlier, there are still seven or eight days of travel."
Han kept asking questions every day, and the number of times was too much, and Xu Jun's heart gradually became irritable, and he looked very impatient.
"Oh, there are still seven or eight days, so where will we pass along this way? Are you going to show me and your sister around? β
Xu Jun was helpless, it was obvious that Han didn't take what he said in his eyes.
"Mother, this road is not smooth, let's hurry as soon as possible, otherwise if something happens, no one will help us."
"What will happen? Is there still a water pirate? I remember that the pirates were caught in the net. Han argued with Xu Jun.
"Mother. You stay well, I'll go back first, and I'll be fine. Mother, you should try not to leave the cabin. "Say it or not, Xu Jun doesn't plan to waste words with Han.
"Hey~Jun'er-" When Han spoke, Xu Jun had already left the cabin.
didn't stop people, Han Shi took back his hand in a daze, and said a little unhappily: "It's a big deal, sure enough." β
I don't know what kind of thinking my son has been indoctrinated with, and now he doesn't listen to her.
The figures of Lin Liangchen and his wife came to mind. Han's face changed, he gritted his teeth with hatred, and sat on the stool angrily.
"Coming back?" Just entered the cabin. Song looked at Xu Jun with a gentle expression.
Xu Jun nodded, looked at his son who was asleep on the bed, and said softly, "My son is asleep?" β
Song sighed, and said softly: "After drinking the medicine prescribed by the doctor, I fell asleep." β
Xu Jun lowered his eyes. I went to the bedside and touched my son's temperature. Said to the Song family: "It's good to wait until you get to the capital, you've worked hard for the past few days." β
A smile flashed across Song's face, "What's the hard work?" This is what I should do, but Brother Jun, you are really hard. β
Xu Jun looked at Song's face dyed with vicissitudes, and his heart suddenly became miscellaneous, and he said lightly: "I'm not hard." β
On the contrary, he felt that it was the Song family who was hard. For all these years, I was not at home. Mother is such a person, not only to take care of things at home, but also to take care of the family, sure enough, the sister-in-law scolded right, he is useless.
I can't give my wife and children a stable life, nor can I give promises, on the contrary, I have always wanted to rely on my eldest brother and sister-in-law-
I used to swear that I would avenge my father, but he was so weak and incapable, what would he repay?
Xu Jun's eyes full of tenderness just now, Song Shi took it all in, chuckled, and sweetness flashed in his heart, some words are still right, some people have experienced hardships, and they will always change, isn't Xu Jun like this?
Xu Jun, who changed five years ago, would he think of this?
The answer, of course, is obvious.
Although Xu Jun told him, when the ship was docked and the supplies were ready, Han called Xu Yan to go to Xu Jun together, saying that he would get off the boat and go around and buy some things along the way.
Xu Jun naturally didn't allow it, "Mother doesn't know, the cost of this trip back and forth is already beyond my money, now I get off the boat to buy things, and when I get to the capital, is it possible, let's walk back as a family?" β
After saying a few words, Han's face turned red, "Isn't your sister-in-law rich?" Why didn't they give you a silver tael when you came back? β
Xu Jun smiled, and laughed sarcastically, "Mother, the eldest brother and sister-in-law can let me live in their house, I am already thinking about the past love, is it possible, you still want me to beg them?" β
In the past, Xu Jun didn't find out that his mother would be so disgusting, when Xu Han and his wife were prejudiced against the Han family, Xu Jun was still sulking for a short time, and now it seems that maybe the eldest brother and sister-in-law have already seen through what his mother is, so he opposes taking his mother to the capital.
Han Shi blushed, "How is this begging?" At the beginning, your father worked hard to raise your eldest brother, not to mention, and died for him, but now give a little reward, isn't it natural to be good for our family? β
Suddenly, Han threw a bombshell.
Xu Jun's face changed, stared at Han and said, "If you want to think so, then you can go by yourself." β
Xu Jun almost shouted out these words, and after the roar, he sat on the chair decadently and remained silent.
Han Shi was stunned, "You yelled at me?" You're yelling at me for that so-called big brother? Who are your relatives, and you can't tell them? β
Xu Jun lowered his head and remained silent, and Xu Yan and the Song family knew that it was not good when they saw this, so they persuaded the two of them separately.
Once Han Shi has fried his hair, how can it be so easy to smooth down, he took a few deep breaths and said: "In that case, Jun'er, there are some things, it's time for me to sue you." β
Xu Jun raised his head, glanced at Han Shi in astonishment, and then thought of something, the corners of his mouth showed bitterness, and quietly waited for Han's next words.
Seeing that the atmosphere was so weird, Song opened his mouth and asked, "Mother, what are you going to say?" β
"It's about why your father died suddenly." Han Shi took a deep breath, "Actually, your father was not hacked to death by robbers, but killed by killers, and the source of this qiΔ is Xu Han." β
"How so?" Xu Yan looked at Han in disbelief, "Mother, you were joking just now, right?" How does Dad's death have anything to do with Big Brother? β
"Doesn't it matter? Your eldest brother's background is illustrious, if it weren't for himβ"
"Enough is enough, mother. Don't tell me again. Xu Jun interrupted Han's narration and glared at her angrily, "I already knew about this matter. Before I came back, my eldest brother had already had a showdown with me, and I know very well what happened, mother, if you don't want our family to die without a place to bury, you can go on! β
Han was furious. shouted hysterically: "Xu Jun, you dare to threaten me, are you my son or not?" β
"I'm telling the truth. If my mother wants our family to have no one to collect the body, you can shout loudly, and you will regret it when the time comes, don't blame me for not reminding you! β
Han is so stupid. Xu Jun couldn't bear it.
"Yan'er. What are you still doing in a daze? Don't hurry up and help my mother back to me. After thinking about it, Xu Jun continued: "Yan'er, these days, you have been looking at your mother every step of the way, don't let her out of the cabin!" β
Seeing Han, Xu Jun was very bored.
Ignoring Han's stunnedness, Xu Yan obediently helped Han out, and the two of them walked on their front feet. On the back foot, Xu Jun gave Song a look. He followed out of the cabin.
Outside, Xu Jun found Xu Cheng who was not far from their room, and when he saw that it was Xu Cheng, Xu Jun was relieved and walked over to say hello, "Uncle Cheng!" β
Xu Cheng wiped away the horror that flashed on his face, turned around and nodded to Xu Cheng, "Second master." β
Xu Cheng scratched his head a little embarrassed, "What I said just nowβ"
"Second master, don't worry, I didn't hear anything just now." The affairs of the master's family, as a slave, should not be discussed much.
Moreover, the master and the lady have never treated him badly, and what they just heard, whether it is true or false, the master is still his master.
"I know, I don't blame Uncle Cheng, it's just - Uncle Cheng, can you trouble you, don't tell my sister-in-law what my mother said, Uncle Cheng, you also know that the relationship between my mother and sister-in-law has always been bad, if my sister-in-law knows, my mother almost had an accident halfway, and she will definitely teach me a lesson afterwards, can you-" Xu Jun's eyes were begging with a hint of begging.
Xu Cheng thought for a while, nodded and agreed, "Okay." β
smiled on his lips, but said in his heart: Madame is so smart, she wouldn't have thought that this Han family had a moth on the road.
What's more, he had already written to his wife about what happened to the Han family before, so there was not much difference between saying it and not saying it.
Xu Jun breathed a sigh of relief, "That's great, Uncle Cheng, thank you!" β
Xu Jun couldn't help it, and patted Xu Cheng on the shoulder.
Back in the cabin, Song poured tea for Xu Jun, "How is it?" Is there anyone out there eavesdropping? β
Xu Jun shook his head, "No, I just happened to see Uncle Cheng and chatted with him a few words." β
Song Shi didn't think much about it, and said curiously: "Brother Jun, the thing that my mother just said-"
"What my mother said is true, my father's death is indeed inseparable from my eldest brother, but-" Xu Han lowered his eyes, "It was not the eldest brother who killed my father, the murderer was someone else, as for the identity of the eldest brother, it is inconvenient to explain to you now, the reason why my mother said this thing is that you are also clear about her intentions, so I don't want you to be involved in this matter." β
Han's purpose, how could the Song family not be clear?
In the end, it is the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who have been together for so many years, the flowery intestines in Han's heart, Song doesn't say everything he knows, but what is written on her face, Song can still guess it all.
Han's move was nothing more than wanting Xu Junhao to directly open his mouth and ask Xu Han and his wife for money.
All along, this brother and sister-in-law are better than them, not only that, but this day is also relatively better than them, more than a little bit better, of course, this qiΔ, there is no lack of sister-in-law's efforts, and management.
Song sighed secretly, "Mother is getting more and more confused, Brother Jun, don't be too angry." "I'm provincial." Xu Jun thought that he could still tolerate it, but this was only for a while, but he didn't know how long this tolerance would last.
"Then when we get to the capital, do we still want to trouble the eldest brother and sister-in-law?"
Xu Jun nodded, "Yes, we live in the house that my sister-in-law bought, although the eldest brother's family has moved away, but my sister-in-law will often go back. β
Song shook his head, "I know, I'll look at my mother, but Brother Jun, but there is one thing, you have to have a good life-"
"You're talking about Yan'er's marriage, right? I've already paid attention to the candidates, and when I enter Beijing, I will arrange for Yan'er to see each other. If it is suitable, it will be settled, and if it is not suitable, it will be found elsewhere. β
And in the barracks. There is no shortage of potential people, presumably, they can also help this sister find a good family.
I haven't been to the Beauty Pavilion for nearly a month, and there is still the previous house, Lin Liangchen is almost worried, lest there be any problems during this period, and go to the Beauty Pavilion to check the accounts of this month. Lin Liangchen gave bonuses to every clerk, including the shopkeeper, according to what he said before.
praised them carefully. also let the beauty pavilion take a day off, and then went to a famous restaurant in the capital with the beauty pavilion to have a big meal, among them, in addition to the beauty pavilion people. Naturally, it also includes other people who do things for Lin Liangchen.
Scattered and scattered. After three or four tables, Lin Liangchen sat in the main seat and looked at this man with a smile: "I don't have anything special to say, the only thing I want to say is only one sentence, I will replace the wine with tea, and give a glass to you, thank you for your hard work these days." β
In a word, push the atmosphere into the whole climax. There is no need for Lin Liangchen to say more, one or two are all sincere. In the future, he will do his best for Lin Liangchen.
"It doesn't have to be, I just want you to be faithful, not to judge the Lord, and to be serious."
Except for this, in Lin Liangchen's opinion, everything else is empty talk.
After this meal, Lin Liangchen went to the previous house, asked the steward to make a belated monthly case, called the steward who stayed behind to ask about the situation at home, and asked the steward to clean Xu Jun's yard, and after staying for a long time, he handed over the silver he had just gotten to Xu Yong and Shui Qing, and asked them to prepare for the south.
Looking at Xu Yong, who was a few years younger than himself and had not yet started a family, Lin Liangchen said: "Xu Yong, when you come back from going out this time, I will help you introduce your relatives." β
Regarding Xu Yong's family affairs, Lin Liangchen had already planned before the Chinese New Year, but he was tripped by the dowry, and then he was in charge of the other half of the house, and then he was injured and recuperated in bed for so many days.
This stubble happened one after another, so that Lin Liangchen almost forgot about Xu Yong's family affairs.
"If you have someone you like, tell me that I will fulfill you."
In the end, he is a person who has been with him for five or six years, and Lin Liangchen is confident that he can still do it.
"Mrs. Xie, can I sue you again after I come back?" Xu Yong also has to think about this matter.
"It's okay, I'll talk about it when you come back, this time you go out, you two should pay attention to safety, if you meet someone available on the road, buy it and bring it back, it's okay to help you in the future."
Xu Yong was overjoyed when he heard this, "Mrs. Xie, I understand." β
"Well, you can go down for a while."
When Xu Yong and Shui Qing finished purchasing the goods going south, Xu Jun's family also arrived at the dock, and the people who picked up Xu Jun, Lin Liangchen had already arranged it, and Lin Liangchen didn't need to go out, Xu Jun's family and Xu Cheng were successfully taken back to the house that Lin Liangchen bought.
However, until he got out of the car, the Han family did not put on a good-looking face, and the housekeeper placed Xu Jun's family according to Lin Liangchen's instructions, and called Xu Cheng, and the two went to the side to talk.
"Come to think of it, you are the housekeeper Xu Chengxu that Mrs. said, I am Xu Dan, and I am currently in charge of the affairs of this house."
Xu Cheng sighed, and moved his body a little restrainedly, "Steward Xu~"
"Uncle Cheng, you are tormenting me, since we are all doing things for Mrs., we are still doing things like that, all the way is tiring, I arranged a place for you to rest, Mrs. said, she will come over tomorrow." As he spoke, Xu Dan grinned.
"Don't be in a hurry before you rest, Xu--let's put the things I brought to Madame."
At this time, Xu Dan and Xu Cheng were talking harmoniously, and in that room, Han Shi looked at the courtyard that Lin Liangchen had arranged for her, and said with great disgust: "What about the steward, call him here and ask him, why did you arrange such a dilapidated courtyard for me?" β
The little girl waiting on the side said: "Back to the old lady, our lady said, this is a yard specially arranged for you, if you are not satisfied, go out and walk left, and sleep as you like." β
As soon as he heard that she would sleep casually, Han's eyes rolled, "Really let me sleep with anything?" β
The little girl nodded, "That's what Madame said." β
"Okay, you lead me over quickly, I'm going to choose a new yard." The Han family is full of style.
The little girl removed the sneer at the corner of her mouth and walked quickly in front, this kind of magnificent courtyard, Han had never lived, thinking that the little girl was really sensible and wanted to lead her to choose other courtyards, and followed happily.
This joy got carried away.
I didn't know that the girl opened the door. Go around behind Han and ask her to go first, and wait for Han to cross the threshold. With a bang, the little girl closed the door directly.
At this time, Han Shi felt that something was wrong, looking at the pedestrians coming and going in front of him, Han Shi reacted, and quickly turned around and patted the door, "Open the door." Open the door for me, you damn girl, open the door for me! β
Han kept roaring outside. The little girl on the side of the door held her belly and laughed, Ren Han shouted, just didn't open the door for her, Han was extremely angry. I didn't scold that girl dozens of times in my heart.
And that little girl is playing tricks on Wang Han. After fastening the door, he left in style.
After the Han family called behind it to no avail, he had to go around to the front of the mansion, Xu Jun came out to see how the Han family arranged after placing the Song family's mother and son, but after asking a lot of questions, no one saw the Han family.
happened to bump into the girl who had just tricked the Han family out of the house, and the little girl said: "The old lady thinks that the yard arranged by our wife is not good." I went outside to find a good yard. β
"Youβ" Xu Jun glared at the girl, who stuck out her tongue. "Second master, you can't blame the slave maid for this, it was the old lady who asked for it, and the slave maid just fulfilled the old lady's wishes."
In the final analysis, it is Han's own greed!
Xu Jun glared at the girl, "Don't talk so much nonsense, my mother went out from there, why don't you take me out to find it?" β
The girl pointed in a direction, and in Xu Jun's opinion, the girl hurriedly ran away.
went out the back door and looked along the alley, and sure enough, he found Han who was scolding while walking, Xu Jun heard the scolding, his face darkened, and he didn't go to call Han, but listened behind her back for a long time.
When he couldn't bear it anymore, he brought Han back.
"Mother, since it is a place arranged by my sister-in-law, you are so good to live in, don't do so much, if you dislike your son, it's useless, just say it!"
Dropping these words, Xu Jun didn't want to watch Han Clan pack his things anymore.
I went to visit Xu Yan's courtyard again, and saw that Xu Yan had already arranged it, and I was very relieved, fortunately, in addition to his mother's love to toss, his daughter-in-law and sister were very worry-free.
"Others raise children to prevent old age, what am I raising a son for? I don't stop the weather, but I also exclude me from outsiders, why is my life so bitter? No one wants to hear this, and the mother-in-law who was sent to serve the Han family couldn't help muttering, whether he would be tossed to death by this old lady one day.
On the second day, Xu Jun went to duty early in the morning, and Song, as before, got up early to go to the kitchen to make breakfast, and the mother-in-law in the kitchen was startled when she saw Song so early, and quickly drove Song out.
"Second wife, go back and rest, this kitchen matter, with my wife, it will be done."
Song turned back, went to his son's room to dress him, and went to call Han, who knew that Han was unhappy in the morning, and when he saw Song, he scolded Song in a short temper and didn't make breakfast and brought it to her.
Song stared at his mother-in-law's gaze and reminded Han in a low voice, "Mother, we are in the capital now. β
Han patted his head, "Don't you say that I forgot, let's finally come to the capital, and we will be blessed in the future." β
Song twitched the corners of his mouth, but did not respond to Han's words.
Before lunch, Lin Liangchen came back for a trip, and saw Han and a serious master sitting in her seat talking and laughing with Song and Xu Yan, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became even bigger.
came eloquently and said: "Erniang is so interested." β
Hearing Lin Liangchen's voice, Han stiffened, looked at the door, and saw that Lin Liangchen was as beautiful as the person who came out of the painting, and when he saw the valuable cloak on Lin Liangchen's body, a trace of jealousy flashed in Han's eyes.
Song and Xu Yan stared at Lin Liangchen for a long time before they recognized that the person in front of them was her.
The two were surprised: "Sister-in-law, you-"
Lin Liangchen smiled, "What's wrong?" "Surprised to see her?
"It's so beautifulβ" Xu Yan said.
Song nodded, "Yes." β
If you don't look carefully, the Song family almost can't see that it is Lin Liangchen in front of you.
Lin Liangchen smiled and said nothing, looked at Han Shi and said, "Erniang doesn't seem to be very happy?" β
Han snorted, "You have become the general's wife, call me Erniang, and you are not afraid of losing your identity." β
Lin Liangchen glanced at Han, didn't say anything, found a place to sit down, and asked Song and Xu Yan, "Are you still in the habit of living here with me?" β
"Habitually, it's just- I'm a little embarrassed that there's a girl to serve you." It was as if he had become useless.
"It's okay, if you don't get used to it, just talk to the steward."
Han interjected: "Since your sister-in-law has arranged a girl, you can use it for a living, what else are you polite to your sister-in-law?" β
Han's tone is the same as Lin Liangchen. (To be continued......)
