Chapter 139: The Lin Family

The east wing of the Lin family's backyard was originally prepared by Qiu Chen for Lin Xu, but because Yang Shuyong and Junwen chose to live in the front yard, after Lin Xu came back from the north, he also chose the outer courtyard to live, thus forming the pattern of the inner and outer courtyards of the Lin family, where men and women are separated.

Yes, the east wing of the Lin family's backyard is very well arranged, not only all kinds of furniture are used in the main house that Qiu Chen originally ordered, bed tents and curtains and other things, but also the same as those used in Qiu Chen's main house, and now there is still a azure brocade, such an arrangement, not to mention that it is the first one in Liujiaao, it is put in Qingshui Town, and even Anping County can be regarded as good. Compared with some families with a heavy background, the only thing that the Lin family's layout lacks may be ancient paintings, ancient porcelain and the like, which takes time to precipitate, not that it can be done with enough financial resources, and there is no way.

Qiu Chen followed Lin Xu to a place four or five steps away from the east chamber and stopped, signaling Lin Xu to come forward and report.

Although the weather is getting cooler now, there are still bamboo curtains hanging on the door, so people can't see the inside of the house from the outside, but they can faintly see what is going on outside from the house.

Lin Xu walked to the door, snorted, and then raised his voice slightly: "Old lady!" ”

Qiu Chen lowered his head slightly, and a sense of astringency spread in his heart, a child was carried away from his mother since he was a child, and suddenly reunited, even if he accepted it, this feeling needs to be accumulated little by little. It's really embarrassing to think about Lin Xu's life experience. However, looking at Lin Xu's appearance just now, he should have figured it out himself!

There wasn't much time for Qiu Chen to wander, the bamboo curtain on the door of the east chamber was picked up from the house, and a clean and tidy woman who looked like she was in her forties but looked old walked out, blessed Lin Xu slightly, turned to Qiu Chen, also blessed her body, and said with a smile: "This is the young grandmother, slave Shuyu, please be the young grandmother!" ”

A big young grandmother, it is not good to call Qiu Chen awkwardly, it is really ...... A title seemed to detain her at once into the small courtyard with high walls and four corners.

Lin Xu introduced appropriately next to him: "Sister-in-law, this is my aunt and grandmother!" ”

Qiu Chen nodded and smiled as he spoke: "It turned out to be my aunt and grandmother, you are tired!" ”

The smile on Huang's face deepened slightly, and he said continuously: "Don't dare!" Don't you dare to make the young grandmother tired, this is what slaves and maids should do. ”

This Huang family can survive in that environment, not to mention the scheming, just this tenacious and tenacious vitality should not be underestimated, but Qiu Chen didn't expect this person to be so lively, and he didn't seem restrained. It can be seen that the heart and scheming are not much worse.

Qiu Chen nodded slightly, raised his feet and walked into the house, and asked in a low voice, "Is the old lady okay?" Have you been tired all the way? Is there anything you don't feel comfortable with? ”

"Grandma Lao remembers, the old lady is fine, she was a little tired when she first arrived yesterday, and she was inevitably sad when she saw the little young master, but after a night of rest, she also relieved herself." Huang did not hide it, and asked ten questions.

Qiu Chen answered softly, stopped talking, and stepped into the door of the east wing.

The layout of the wings in the backyard and front yard of the Lin family is the same, and they are all light and dark structures.

Qiu Chen stepped into the hall, but the person was not in the hall. After a slight pause, the Huang family had already followed Lin Xu's footsteps and put the curtain, walked quickly to Qiu Chen, and led Qiu Chen to the north room with a smile: "Grandma, come into the house, the old lady is in this house!" ”

Qiu Chen smiled, followed Huang's gesture, and walked into the north room. In his ears, he heard that the Huang family stopped Lin Xu: "Little master, the old lady may want to freshen up, little young master should sit here and wait for a while!" ”

Is this something to say to yourself alone? Don't want Lin Xu to hear or what?

Qiu Chen's eyelids drooped, the corners of his mouth hooked, and he entered the north room.

Entering the door, before Qiu Chen had time to raise his eyes to look, a slender and slender figure had already walked a few steps to the side of the door, and bowed down on his knees: "Grandma!" ……”

There are only three people who came this time, and they just saw the old aunt and grandmother Huang, and she also knew from the slender figure just now, this must not be the old lady of the Lin family, so the identity of this person is self-evident There is only one - the fifth lady of the Lin family!

With such an identity, how could she really accept this gift, yes, she didn't have time to see anything at all, and subconsciously leaned over and supported her slender body that was about to bow down: "Fifth Miss, right?" This is unacceptable! ”

Tentacles, the girl's arms were so thin that Qiu Chen was secretly taken aback, and the arms under his hands were not as soft and delicate as a teenage girl should have, but they were hard as if they were on the bone frame, and his hands were flustered.

I was slightly surprised in my heart, but when I remembered what happened to these people before, it was clear.

The smile on Qiu Chen's face couldn't help but be a little kinder, and his voice softened a little, and said, "Fifth Miss, don't be so polite, well, if Fifth Miss doesn't dislike it, just call me sister-in-law like Brother Xu!" ”

"My mother and I had nowhere to take refuge, so we went to my sister-in-law, and my sister-in-law took me in, and my mother and I admired it, how could we dislike it...... Belch? The fifth lady hung her head, she had never seen Qiu Chen, but now she raised her head as she spoke, and saw Qiu Chen's appearance up close, and she was stunned, staring at Qiu Chen with a pair of beautiful eyes showing a look of surprise, and then her face bloomed with a thick layer of surprise. Sister-in-law, I didn't expect to see it in this life, let alone ...... It will be a sister-in-law! ”

Saying that, the fifth young lady, who had just been let go by Qiu Chen, quickly knelt down: "Sister-in-law's life-saving grace, my sister has not been able to say thank you......"

Qiu Chen was also very surprised, she never expected that the dying girl who happened to be saved in Yanyun Valley that day was actually the fifth lady of the Lin family...... Lin Xianniang! Although Lin is not a very obscure surname, such a young woman is in a small guard like Ling Shanwei...... When Lin Xu mentioned it just now, she should have thought of it!

She is still inherently insensitive to this kind of human relations and complicated personnel!

She refused to accept the bending knee blessing just now, and she couldn't bear it even more when she knelt down and kowtowed at this time.

Although the surprise made Qiu Chen stunned, he still leaned over quickly and hugged Lin Xianniang, who was about to kneel, Qiu Chen said with admiration: "I really didn't expect it to be you, my sister...... Hehe, this is also our fate. However, those are all in the past, and now, the old lady and sister have found Brother Xu, and the family is together, so let's leave those things in the past behind! ”

Speaking of this, Qiu Chen stopped talking and said with a smile: "Look, my sister and I met unexpectedly, and it's not over when it comes to it, I haven't seen the old lady yet, and my sister hasn't introduced her sister-in-law to her!" ”

Lin Xianniang is obviously not the kind of weak boudoir woman, after the surprise just now, she quickly recovered, said no with a smile, smiled and took Qiu Chen's hand, led her to turn around and took two steps inside, and said to a woman sitting on the kang: "Old lady, this is the sister-in-law...... It's just that I didn't expect that my sister-in-law was actually the one who rescued me from the valley. ”

Qiu Chen noticed a detail, whether it was the Huang family or Lin Xianniang, the old lady of the Lin family was called the old lady, and she thought in her heart, in this society, especially the eunuch class, paid more attention to these title rules and the like, and the word 'old lady' was probably inappropriate, so she followed the Huang family and Lin Xianniang and shouted: "Yang's begonia has seen the old lady." ”

As he spoke, he folded his hands in front of his chest and bent his knees awkwardly to make a blessing.

Since she is not a mother-in-law, she can't even talk about her relatives, so she can't afford to put herself too low to kowtow and kneel. When the younger generation sees the elders, it is enough to bend the knee blessing ceremony.

"Good boy, good boy, Shuyu help up!" An old and hoarse voice came down from the top of his head, Huang took a few steps forward to support Qiu Chen, and Lin Xianniang also supported him on the other side, Qiu Chen's blessing was only half done, and he couldn't really go on.

Just now, when I entered the door, I met Lin Xianniang, turned around, Qiu Chen only had time to take a look, at that time, the old lady was sideways, and her head was hanging slightly, she couldn't see her face clearly, at this time, straightened up again, looked up, Mrs. Lin had already turned half of her body over, so she was able to see this old lady Lin, in fact, Lin Xu's mother's appearance.

Although they must have had a hard time before knowing the Dao, and they could guess from the situation of the Huang family and Lin Xianniang, Mrs. Lin's face was not much better, but at first sight, Qiu Chen was still secretly taken aback.

What surprised her was not only the same dark yellow face as the Huang family, but more importantly, this old lady Lin was too old-looking. is to count the hardships and sufferings over the years, to have a son as young as Lin Xu, this old lady Lin is at most similar to the Huang family, and her age is the sky, but the old lady Lin in front of her has almost all white hair, and it is sparse and scattered, and her whole face is even older and sagging, and the surroundings are densely ...... With such a face, he is even older than Liu, who is nearly sixty years old!

With this countenance, it is not an exaggeration to say that seventy!

If you don't say seventy, it means sixty years old, and if you push it up for twelve or thirteen years, it is also forty-seven or eighteen years old, and an old woman who is forty-seven or eighteen years old...... Can you still give birth to Lin Xu's little son?!

The answer is almost obvious, unambiguous, and there is no need to think too much about it at all!

In an instant, Qiu Chen understood, why did Lin Xu say that the fifteen-year-old boy of the Lin family was beheaded, and he also talked about several adult brothers!

In an instant, Qiu Chen also understood where Lin Xu's strong hesitation and sadness came from!

Relatives came, in the name of the mother. But Lin Xu's biological mother, I'm afraid I don't know where she died a long time ago!

Speaking of which, it is a big deal which family the son-in-law is born in, and only the concubine who is not valued will not be noticed by the outside world, and only then can he have another chance for Father Lin to entrust Lin Xu to Lin Sheng's father and son, so as to escape with a glimmer of life......

Alas, forget it, the intricate relationships between these concubines and concubines in the big family are not something that she can figure out as a modern soul, and she doesn't have to face that kind of maddening situation now, why do you think so much!

Qiu Chen was thinking in her heart, her hand had been held by Mrs. Lin, she sat sideways on the edge of the kang according to Mrs. Lin's strength, and heard Mrs. Lin pat her hand and said, "Good boy, thanks to you all these years...... is not at home, and you are alone to support this family, take care of Brother Xu'er, and have to raise a pair of children...... It's not easy, child, you're suffering. ”

Qiu Chen lowered his eyes, made a gentle and shy gesture, covered up the emotions in his eyes, and smiled: "I don't deserve the old lady's praise like this, this is what I should do." ”

Old Lady Lin frowned slightly, raised her eyes to look at Huang, Huang shook her head slightly, Old Lady Lin sighed almost imperceptibly, and continued with a sigh of relief: "It's not easy to know what to do, and it's even more difficult to do so well. Well, you are a good boy, and it is a blessing to have you to find a child! ”

Is this old lady all she can say?

Qiu Chen believes that whether it is Haitang before or after her, raising Fu'er Man'er and taking care of Lin Xu is simply because these three children are his relatives, and taking care of them is also out of his heart, whether she is good or not, do you need others to comment?

Haitang even took her life for this family and for that man, and she worked hard for the children of this family,...... Could this be compensated for by the praise of a dry 'good boy'? No matter how many times he says it, such a dry comment, Qiu Chen doesn't need it! She believes that Begonia doesn't need it either!

Thinking so in his heart, Qiu Chen didn't show it. To put it bluntly, these people in front of her, whether they are Mrs. Lin and Aunt Huang, who have never known each other, or Lin Xianniang, who has had a relationship, are just strangers who have some connections, she didn't treat them as family, she didn't do it before, she won't it now, look like this, and it won't be in the future!

Gathering his thoughts, Qiu Chen raised his eyes and smiled: "The old lady complimented me like this, I can't stand it...... Hehe, dinner is already ready outside, where can the old lady use it? Do you want to go out and eat together, or do you want someone to bring it in? ”

Originally, he planned to invite the three members of the Lin family to eat together, but when the words came to his lips, Qiu Chen changed his words.

Without waiting for the three members of the Lin family to speak, Qiu Chen said: "There are no outsiders, just my four nephews and Brother Xu, my nephews are not yet adults, and the eldest is only sixteen ......."

Qiu Chen seemed to be anxious to explain clearly, but with her explanation, Old Lady Lin, who was originally about to agree, frowned, pondered for a moment, shook her head with a smile, and said, "Forget it, we won't go out, let's eat in the house again!" My body is really not angry, all the way upside down, and I haven't slowed down at this time! ”

Qiu Chen hurriedly got up and said with concern: "The old lady thinks it's not good? Then why don't you go to the town and ask someone to show the old lady? ”

Mrs. Lin shook her head with a smile and said, "It's just that I'm tired, people are like this when they're old, where do you need to invite Lang Zhong...... Okay, good boy, don't worry about the old woman's body, the old woman is fine. It's getting late, and the children are still waiting for you to eat, so let's go. ”

Everyone said so, Qiu Chen no longer insisted, bowed slightly and said, "Old lady, there is one more thing...... I was not at home before, so I was wronged, and I originally thought that I would move out and let you move into the main house...... After thinking about it, the west courtyard was immediately cleaned up, and it was far away from the workshop, and it was cleaner, and the old lady and the fifth sister moved there to be more suitable for cultivation...... Yes, I said to the old lady with a thick face, I was wronged in this house for two days, I urged people to quickly clean up over there, and moved the old lady and Miss Five, Aunt Huang and Grandma Huang over, and they could live comfortably. ”

Mrs. Lin didn't seem to have any opinion on this, and her smile was full of kindness, which made her old and depressed face also reveal a trace of kindness: "It's still thoughtful that you kid." Just do as you say, save a few times. ”

Qiu Chen lowered his head and saluted, secretly hooked the corners of his lips, agreed, and then said goodbye to Mrs. Lin and Lin Xianniang.

As soon as he walked out of the inner door, Qiu Chen felt that he couldn't take a long breath.

Looking at Lin Xu, who was sitting absent-mindedly in the hall, and Aunt Huang, who was sent out behind him, Qiu Chen had no choice but to suppress it, and only said to Lin Xu with a smile: "Second brother, the old lady and the fifth sister haven't finished the journey yet, so they won't eat with us, let's go." ”

Lin Xu got up in response, and when he walked to the door of the north room, he hesitated slightly, but still bowed and saluted, and said, "Xu has retired!" ”

Then he straightened up, and followed Qiu Chen out of the door by the Huang family.

Back in the main house, Qiu Chen instructed the Daxing family to put out all kinds of dishes in small plates and bowls and send them to the East Chamber. She washed her hands herself, took Lin Xu, the four Junwen Junshu brothers, and Afu Aman to start eating dinner happily.

After all, the delay was a little longer, and the fish was a little cold, with a faint fishy smell.

As soon as Qiu Chenwei summed it up, he instructed Qingxing and Yufeng to bring the customized copper pot, took two more pottery bowls, poured alcohol and lit it, and put the steamed fish and fish balls that were moved into the copper pot on the simple alcohol stove, and soon, the slightly cool dishes were steaming.

The children of all ages also felt fresh, Tuxi was fun, and the food was cheerful and lively. Even Lin Xu, the depression and boredom on his face faded a lot, and he followed Junshu Junwen while whispering, and he also ate a lot.

After eating, Lin Xu said a few words, then said goodbye to Qiu Chen and the others, and went back to the room to study. Qiu Chen didn't leave him behind, but only told him not to be too tired.

Lin Xu agreed to go out, walked to the door of the east chamber, saluted and said hello, and went straight to the front yard.

Qiu Chen saw this scene behind the bamboo curtain in the door of the main house, and a shallow smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Lin Xu's identity can be said to be very embarrassing. A concubine who couldn't get on the stage at all, but now he has become the only bloodline heir of the Lin family, that old lady Lin has to value him and count on him, but she is probably not very happy to see Lin Xu in her heart, after all, her own sons have followed her husband to behead, but this concubine has survived, and she is likely to have to rely on this concubine with a cheeky face now and in the future......

With such a relationship, I am afraid that this old lady Lin will feel even more embarrassed, and she is even more reluctant to see this lively, healthy concubine dangling in front of her eyes!

Lin Xu can see it now, it's the best! If you take care of this measure, everyone will have a better life!

Qiu Chen returned from the door with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and beckoned the brothers Afu Aman and Junwen Junshu to enter the room together, Qiu Chen took Afu Aman, Junyan and Junzhang on the kang, and read and wrote around the kang table, she sat on the edge of the kang, let Junwen Junshu sit on the opposite chair, and then told the Junwen brothers about the various relationships she had learned about the Lin family - but she didn't think about it, so she subconsciously hid the news that Lin Sheng was still alive.

The man, if possible, wished never to be in front of her and the children. Never come to disturb their pure, beautiful, positive days.

The story of the Lin family is not new to Qiu Chen, after all, in modern times, whether it is TV, movies, or novels, there are too many such stories, and they are all rotten. can listen to Junwen Junshu's ears, but it shocked and embarrassed the two children.

"Alas, I didn't expect that Uncle Xu Zi and Uncle Xu are not biological brothers!" Junwen said with emotion.

"Uncle Xuzi, it's really ...... It's better than before! Junshu also sighed.

Qiu Chen was also a little silent. Indeed, before, although Lin Xu basically grew up with his brother since he was a child, he had no concept of a mother, and he had no impression of his father, but he always had a biological brother to rely on. Later, I had a sister-in-law, and the same was true.

But in a blink of an eye, my brother was not biological, my father died unjustly, and my biological mother didn't even mention a word...... I also have to guard a woman who is not a mother, but has the title of a righteous mother, and I will be filial in the future and send her old age to the end...... This is really not as good as before, at least there is a brother! Now, Lin Xu ...... like this What a real orphan!

The aunts and nephews talked for a while, and sighed indiscriminately, Qiu Chen instructed Junwen Junshu to keep the original appearance, Gen Linxu should not be too polite, and do not show estrangement.

"As long as Brother Xu doesn't have other ideas, he is Afu Aman's uncle......"

The first thing she saw when she woke up was Afu Aman and Lin Xu, in those days, she was lying on the kang to raise her corpse, and it was Lin Xu, a thin child, who took Fu'er Man'er and cooked for her and boiled medicine...... He really treats her as a sister-in-law, and even a mother, as long as he is not alienated, she will always treat him as her own relative!

Junwen and Junshu immediately got up and responded: "Nephews are awake, aunt rest assured!" ”

In fact, children are far more direct and innocent than adults, what they value in their hearts is affection, and they can say that they have voted with each other, and these messy relationships, and even blood relations, are far less important than adults think.

Qiu Chen nodded and came down, and then said to Junwen and Junshu: "In the past few days, you will take Afu Aman to read and write in your room after school, and I will send someone to call you for dinner...... In this way, when the West Courtyard is cleaned up, I will move them over, and we will be able to do the same as before. ”

As soon as these words came out, not only Junwen Junshu's face showed a touch of joy, but even Junyan Junzhang was overjoyed.

"Auntie, really? They really moved to the West Courtyard in the future...... Ha Luha, that's good, I don't have to come to the backyard......" The boy was straightforward and laughed.

Junzhang also smiled, and there was a little more exaggerated joy that he didn't usually have, and echoed Junyan: "Well, I also think that I can come to my aunt after school, and I also like my aunt to tell us stories at night......"

Junwen got up and slapped the boy, and scolded with a smile: "Okay, you two still said that you are willing to follow your aunt, but you haven't written many words tonight, right?" If you're like this, why would your aunt let you come? …… Let's go back and finish the homework left by Mr. today! ”

The two boys were photographed and reprimanded, and they only grinned, but it did not affect their good mood at all, they quickly packed up their paper and pens and other things, climbed off the kang, put on shoes, obediently followed the two brothers, said goodbye to their aunts and younger siblings, and went back to their rooms in the front yard.

Qiu Chen checked Afu Aman's schoolwork, Qingxing and Yufeng came over to report that the hot water was ready, so Qiu Chen took the two children into the east ear room to take a bath, changed into clean pajamas and pajamas, came back and put them on the bed, one on each side, patting gently, coaxing the two children to sleep.

After all, Aman was young, went to school for a day, ran and jumped, and fell asleep after a while after going to bed.

Ah Fu leaned on her body, but moved from time to time, Qiu Chen originally wanted to be silent, the little guy fell asleep after a while, but he didn't want to, the frequency of the little guy moving was getting faster and faster, Qiu Chen couldn't help laughing.

opened his mouth and asked, "Ah Fu, is there something wrong?" ”

"Mother," Ah Fu's soft children's voice was particularly soft and glutinous in the silence of the night, with a little bit of confusion and helplessness, which made people can't help but soften their hearts.

Qiu Chen turned sideways, stretched out his hand to hug Ah Fu, and asked softly, "What's wrong?" Is there something that makes Ah Fu embarrassed? ”

Ah Fu's facial features are completely hidden in the dark, only a faint faint light is reflected from the back, forming a small soft shadow, which can not see the eyebrows clearly, but can hear the child's breathing very clearly, feel the child's warmth, and even the child's faint but solid heartbeat...... At this moment, Qiu Chen seemed to hear the rhythm of life between each other, whose blood was thicker than water and whose blood was connected.

"Mother......" the child cried softly again.

"Huh?" Qiu Chen also responded gently, encouraging the child to continue.

"Mother, isn't my uncle my uncle? …… Uncle, are you leaving? Not in our house anymore? Ah Fu asked timidly.

Qiu Chen's hazy beauty suddenly dissipated, and he fell into reality alive. She was surprised and at a loss...... She said that those words did not avoid Ah Fu Aman, but she did not expect that Ah Fu, a child who was just over four years old and less than five years old, would be able to understand their conversation, and he seemed to be worried about this matter.

Stunned, Qiu Chen didn't speak, but now he let out a sigh in his heart, it seems that the child is more sensitive than her, and he cares more about Lin Xu's little uncle than she imagined!

After a moment of deep silence, Qiu Chen calmly spoke: "Well, Ah Fu, do you know what kind of person is an uncle?" ”

Ah Fu thought for a while, nodded and said, "Well, it's the one who kisses the same father and mother, and it's the younger brother of the father." ”

Qiu Chen hugged Ah Fu and nodded: "Yes, a man who has the same father and mother as his father, and a man who is younger than his father is called an uncle." However, there is also a situation where it is not necessarily the same father, but the relationship is no worse than that of the same father, just like your father and your little uncle, their parents are different, but your father and your uncle are closer than their biological brothers, so is there a blood relationship; Or it doesn't matter if they are brothers, they are more than some brothers. ”

Speaking of this, Qiu Chen paused and asked Ah Fu gently, "Is that so?" Do you think Uncle is very close? Did you feel that you didn't like your uncle anymore after knowing that he wasn't your own uncle? Could it be that because he is not his own uncle, he will not be paid attention to since then? ”

Ah Fu shook his head vigorously without hesitation, and denied repeatedly: "No, it won't." Ah Fu likes uncle, he won't kiss him, he won't ignore him! ”

Qiu Chen smiled, picked up Ah Fu's little face, kissed it, and said, "Yes, Ah Fu will not kiss Uncle Wang, will not ignore Uncle Wang, and will like Uncle as before...... Uncle also likes Ah Fu and Ah Man...... Just like her mother...... "Maybe she likes it more than her mother, and it's more heartfelt!" After all, Lin Xu has always lived in the concept of uncles and nephews and nieces, which is completely different from her. It's just that Qiu Chen said this in his heart, and he couldn't take it out at all. Not anyone.

Listening to his mother's words, Ah Fu suddenly became relaxed and happy. Yes, the little uncle likes him and likes his sister, and he won't change just because those few people came.

"Mother, I know the truth." Ah Fu's voice sounded with joy, and his small body subconsciously squeezed into Qiu Chen's arms, as if he wanted to seek more warmth, leaning on Qiu Chen's arms, his breath gradually calmed down and gradually became longer. As if asleep, the little child muttered vaguely: "I'm still ...... And uncle...... ...... together"

Small voices, muffled words, annihilated in heavy sleep.

Ah Fu fell asleep, sleeping breathing for a long time, perhaps it was the mother's unraveling, so that the child let go of the burden in his heart, and Ah Fu even had a shallow smile on his little face when he was asleep.

It's just that Qiu Chen has insomnia inexplicably.

Lin Xu's matter, what she can do is to be worthy of her heart and do her best to maintain her small family and the family she recognizes. And the fact that the other person was still alive, after she deliberately ignored it during the day, in the dead of night, surfaced again unhindered, and confessed that in front of her, she was not allowed to escape, she was not allowed to ignore.

Such a man --

A man who doesn't care at all that his young son needs to be raised, doesn't care that his wife is pregnant, and leaves home without hesitation;

A man who has been separated for nearly three years, after a false rumor of death, and even from the life and death of his wife......

The only family letter written back in the past three years was to send three people to his wife and younger brother who had no ability to support themselves at all, and he didn't even mention a pair of children, let alone his wife who had worked hard for this family for him, and even didn't know where his soul was!

When that man left the house, wasn't it clear what the situation of the Lin family was? Just like that, three people were sent back, and the three of them were still holding the shelf, and they only gave a 'good boy' comment that was not a compliment at all, and they could hold the shelf and lay out the only rules they had left...... 's three people came back, if there was no voice now, and there was no booming Lin family, that man sent back such three mouths that could only eat and not cook, would he force his wife to sell his sons and daughters?

If it is said that before, Qiu Chen just didn't have a good impression of that man, after what happened now, he was completely disgusted, disdainful, and unreasonable!

Leaving the three old ladies of the Lin family, she was just looking at Lin Xu's face; However, she will not do anything virtuous and pure for this, she is the mother of Afu Aman, the daughter of the Yang family, the sister of Yang Shumeng and Yang Shuyong, and the aunt of the Junshu Junwen brothers...... It's just because these people accepted her with sincerity and defined them as relatives, relatives who can be trusted and relied on in this world.

As for that man, although she Qiu Chen occupies Yang Haitang's body, she has nothing to do with him!

She doesn't approve, won't admit it, and won't accept it! Not to mention trusting and relying on ...... Because that man is not worthy of her trust! There is no place for her to rely on!

The plan in the heart is agreed, and the mind is stable. If it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if it's angry, it doesn't matter if it's resentful, and it doesn't matter if it's anything else......

When I was at ease, fatigue came up, and I naturally fell asleep. It was a good night's sleep.

On the second day, early in the morning, after breakfast, Qiu Chen sent away a bunch of children of all sizes to the school, and exchanged a few greetings with the Huang family who happened to come out at the door of the East Chamber, asked about Mrs. Lin's situation, and went straight out to Lan Ying's house.

Lan Ying went to work at the Lin family just now, and she had already told Qiu Chen about her father-in-law's opinion, this season has gone to the summer heat, and there are so many days of free time before the big autumn, so you can ask someone to do the work.

Qiu Chen came to Lan Ying's house to deliver money. Manchu's father made a project budget, and there were more than 30 rooms inside and outside the west courtyard, because the materials had already been prepared, and now it was just the cost of wages, and a total of ten taels of silver was enough. Qiu Chen directly took fifteen taels of silver and handed it to Manchu's father: "Uncle Dachuan, you also know the situation of my family, suddenly there are so many relatives, everyone who lives together for a day or two is good, after a long time, there is a conflict, and the big guys are not comfortable." You look, try to invite as many masters as possible, clean up the west courtyard as soon as possible, you are thinking, you can move in a few days at the earliest? ”

Man Ho Niang, who was next to Qiu Chen, sighed and said: "When I heard that it was the old lady of the Lin family that day, I was also shocked, Shengzi and Xuzi have lived here for ten years, and I have never heard of Lao Tzu Niang, you have finally made the Lin family prosperous, why did you suddenly fall from the sky A mother-in-law...... What else is there for aunts and grandmothers...... There is also a sister-in-law...... This mother-in-law is going to die in old age, and the sister wants to marry someone to make up the dowry, but it's all a matter of spending money. Moreover, looking at the bright clothes, Lan Ying came back to tell me that she didn't have any luggage...... The matter of spending money in the future is pointing to you......"

Full of hoarding mothers, speaking a little directly, and even a little mean, Qiu Chen knew that the Wang family would only say this because he regarded her as his close person.

It's just that these words made Manchu's father feel awkward to hear, and he felt that his wife was provoking right and wrong again, so he scolded angrily: "What are you talking about, rich people are carrying gold and silver, silver tickets and gold tickets, and they can still be like our villagers, and they still carry a cover roll when they go out!" If you don't know what to do, don't be foolish......"

Wang was a little unhappy when he was reprimanded, but he was used to saving face for his old man in front of people, pouted, glared at his father, and finally stopped.

Father said: "If you rush to ...... You have to move in the day after tomorrow. ”

"The day after tomorrow?" Qiu Chen thought about it as soon as possible, but he didn't expect it to be so soon. If you move in the day after tomorrow, doesn't that mean that two days is enough?

Father Man squinted, unconsciously twisted the tobacco in his hand, nodded and said, "You can clean up the backyard first, find a few more people, and you can clean it up this morning and evening." Tomorrow the backyard will be dried, and then the front yard will be cleaned, and the day after tomorrow, the backyard will be ready to move in...... Anyway, don't you mean to let the old lady move over, it's enough for people to live in the backyard! ”

"Hey, it's so fast...... That's a good feeling. Qiu Chen didn't hide it in front of Manchu's father and Manho's mother, and responded with a smile, saying, "Then I'll hand over this job to my uncle." I'm going to pick up and go to the county and buy two people back. ”

The pouting man hoard mother grabbed Qiu Chen and said, "Are you buying a girl for that old lady?" ”

Qiu Chen was slightly stunned, but still nodded and said, "Yes, no matter how you say it, you can't let people say anything." I have someone on my side, so I have to buy two people over there, and there must be someone on the gate to guard the house, and also clean the yard or something. ”

Manchu Niang pulled Qiu Chen and didn't let go, and said mysteriously: "You go to buy a girl, who knows if there will be trouble in the future...... I think it's nice to hire two people in the village. Find a janitor, and then find someone to do their laundry and cook, and it's enough. ”

Speaking of this, Man Ho Niang didn't pay attention to Man Hoard's explicit hint at all, and simply leaned over to Qiu Chen's ear and whispered.

Manchu's father was in a hurry to find a worker to start work, and he didn't bother to be angry with the old woman anymore, so he simply snorted, put his hands behind his back, and walked away stubbornly.

Man Ho Niang lay on Qiu Chen's ears, but her eyes were paying attention to Man Hoard's every move, seeing that Man Ho Dad was stubborn and left, she snorted a little proudly. provoked Qiu Chen almost to be amused by this old couple!

"Let me tell you, this liter of rice and rice hatred, I glanced at it from a distance, and listened to you and Lan Ying come back, those people are only afraid that they are all living a good life, let's dig out his heart and lungs, and people may not be able to see it, maybe, when the time comes, I will eat you, drink you, and spend you, and I will feel that I have lost face...... It's better to save some, or simply give them a job to do, so that they can have some money of their own, even if it is really not enough, far from enough for a few of them to chew, and don't let her feel that we are giving grace...... Besides, I know that you don't have any thoughts of repaying your kindness, so why bother spending money and not ending up? ”

The Wang family is a little stingy and instigated on weekdays, Qiu Chen has always respected her, but he doesn't feel very close, but today's words made Qiu Chen feel a sense of empowerment!

Holding Wang's hand sincerely, Qiu Chen smiled: "No wonder people say that there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure, if it weren't for your aunt reminding me, I really wouldn't have thought so deeply." Hehe, I won't say anything nonsense, it's just that my aunt's reminder is really that timely rain, and I must thank you again. If I hadn't let your aunt remind me, I would have really done that thankless thing of paying money and effort. ”

Wang was told by Qiu Chen's words, and he also felt very ironed in his heart, and pulled Qiu Chen to talk for a while, and Qiu Chen carefully summed up the candidates for hiring in the West Courtyard, and finally determined the fifth grandfather who originally dug up and transported dung in Xitou.

The fifth grandfather and the old couple have only one daughter, who has already been married, and over the years, they have been earning a few big bucks by digging dung, and the old couple has a good life. Now, seeing that the five grandfathers and grandmothers are all old, and the work of digging dung is no longer visible, Wang said to Qiu Chen: "...... Don't look at the fifth uncle's pickling work, the old couple are actually diligent and clean, wash well, change into clean clothes, and can't tell that they are doing that. What's more, the old couple is diligent, and the cleaning work and pulp washing work can also be handed over to them, and you can just find a cook. ”

For the work of the fifth grandfather, Qiu Chen did not discriminate. She had also seen the old couple a few times, and although the clothes they were wearing were very old, they were very clean. As long as you don't drive the dung truck, there is no smell of washing on your body on weekdays. Let the old couple look at the door, and it is not impossible to clean the yard, as for the pulp washing and the cook, she is thinking about finding another two people. It's not for anything else, it's just that she was originally giving the fifth grandfather and five grandmothers a light job to support the elderly, and there is too much work, so there is no point.

After thinking about it, Qiu Chen suddenly found that the Wang family always vetoed it for one reason or another after she mentioned a person's name, and after thinking about it, Qiu Chen sighed and said: "Auntie, I have recruited so many workers, why don't I find it so difficult to find a person to cook and wash clothes...... It's true, you can't think of anything...... I think it's better to forget it......"

As soon as he heard that Qiu Chen was discouraged and was about to cancel the matter of looking for someone, the Wang family finally couldn't hold his breath, and said with a smile: "Begonia, in fact, there are two people who are quite suitable, but I am afraid that if my aunt says it, you still have concerns in your heart." ”

As soon as these words came out, Qiu Chen thought of who it was, but he felt a little awkward in his heart, but he still wanted to hear what the Wang family had to say. After all, Wang's plan for her today is really thoughtful, and she feels that whether it is her impression or today's performance, Wang will not be the kind of person who dug a pit and waited for her to jump.

So he said: "Oh, I said that my aunt is not in a hurry, it turns out that I already have a suitable candidate in my heart, good aunt, tell me quickly, who are the two people you have a good salary!" ”

Wang was shaken by Qiu Chen, and waved his hand again and again, "Ouch, don't shake, don't shake, if you shake it again, your aunt will be scattered!" ”

Loose yellow child means that after the egg has been placed for a long time, the egg yolk will spread out, and when it shakes, you can feel the obvious shaking, which is a sign that the egg is not fresh.

Hearing that Wang said that he had been shaken away, Qiu Chen couldn't hold back any longer, and laughed haha.

Wang also laughed, and then she said the two people she had in mind......
