Chapter Seventy-Two: The Outsider
Mei Xueyan, the ancestral hall of the Lin family, is very familiar, as Shen said, she used to be punished to come here to clean, at first she looked at the tablet candle and felt gloomy, but later she got used to it and felt kind. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Because the tablet will not hurt her, and will not beat and punish her at every turn, after a long time, Mei Xueyan feels that the ancestral hall is a good place to hide, except for her, a few maids are driving a person to stay here.
In the Lin Mansion, she is most familiar with this place, except for the cottage in the backyard.
Today, the ancestral hall is cleaned up brightly, there is no trace of dust and staleness, the window lattice is open to breathe, the spring breeze that has just rained makes people feel clear, and there are many tributes and fruits in the house.
The most conspicuous thing is a roast suckling pig, next to which there is whole chicken bacon, and another pot of fruit pastries, which looks full of flowers, and the Lin Mansion is willing to spend money on the sacrifice.
Mrs. is at the forefront, in fact, she is not qualified to stand at the forefront as a concubine, but now that she is in charge, Lin Saburo doesn't care about these, who will say?
Erlang Lin Rongchang, Shen and Lin Jiabao, San Lang Lin Yichen, and Siniang Lin Xuan stood behind her, and there was only Wang Pozi who was waiting, and it seemed that the people were not prosperous.
"Chasing only my ancestors Shide Liufang, Hui Ze Chui Yu Yuan, a moment of unification, the fragrance of the ages, although the merit is exhausted, the blessing is boundless, great, Zude, Yi Shi Guizhang, Zhuo Zonggong, a long history, on the occasion of the Qingming Festival, the ritual is the will, Fu Qi Caina, Emperor Mu Mu, bless the descendants: Yongye Jikang, the family style Pi Zhen, the sound of the book is far away, the pearls are a few accumulations, the toe is auspicious, the generations are rich, the house is prosperous, to be appropriate, to taste, rest, still enjoy."
Lu slowly finished reciting the sacrificial text and began to offer incense.
When they knelt down, the maid outside the house also worshipped, and Mei Xueyan hid aside a little cramped.
She is not a child of the Lin family, and she is no longer a slave of the Lin Mansion, so she doesn't know whether she should bow down or not.
"The eldest man is wandering, the ancestors and the ancestors don't have to blame, he is also for the prosperity of the Lin family. The lord is in the spirit of heaven, and he must be blessed with safety and sound. ”
Lu Shi muttered: "Our Lin family, which was fiefdomed by the first emperor in Lin'an, has no relatives here, and it is still necessary to have harmony with our own family in order to glorify the lintel." San Lang, you have made contributions to the Lin family, and you will only come back this year, so give your father and mother more incense. ”
After several masters took turns to worship the incense, the princess also collected the incense of the subordinates one by one and inserted it in the ashes.
"It just so happens that everyone in both rooms is here, I have two things to discuss with you, Xuan'er, you also listen."
While Lu was talking, the maids brought chairs, and everyone took their seats.
The Lu family has always been unhurried, calm and atmospheric, even if she knows that she is not the real housewife of the Lin family, but this temperament is also convincing, so she can make the internal and external stewards of the Lin family listen to her dispatch, after the death of the master, she supported the Lin family alone for so many years.
"The first thing is to repair the ancestral hall and ancestral mausoleum, which was supposed to be overhauled every five years, but because the master is not there, there are some small ones left in the family, or I, a woman, are in charge, and now that San Lang has grown up, it is time to pick up this matter, and the descendants of the Lin family must not forget their ancestors."
The Shen family subconsciously sat back and repaired the ancestral tomb? In the final analysis, it's just Fei Yinzi, but I don't know how Mrs. plans to get out, and the second room can't suffer too much.
"I settled the account with the housekeeper, and it cost about a thousand taels. Half of the big head is from the public, and the remaining 500 taels are made up by the three rooms to show filial piety. ”
Mei Xueyan was amazed that she was really wealthy, and it was a thousand taels at every turn, and she couldn't compare.
She sat quietly beside Lin Sanlang, and secretly said that if Lin Sanlang hadn't pulled her in, she wouldn't have to fidget here and listen to their Lin family's family affairs, it would be better to write and sleep in the yard.
The Shen family opened his mouth, how much money would it cost to repair an ancestral tomb?
"What about the four girls......"
Shen wiped his nose with a handkerchief and muttered.
Lu Shi said unhappily: "Xuan'er is a daughter who has not left the cabinet, only a little monthly silver, and no private property, you still can't compare with her?"
Shen said in a low voice: "Since it is the filial piety of the descendants, then the only daughter of the Lin family also has to talk about her heart, right?" It's not that I don't think the fourth girl will have to pay much silver, even if it is a piece of her filial piety. ”
The Shen family is dissatisfied, they are all the sons and daughters of the master, and they have to give a copy in the second room, why does Lin Xuan only enter and not leave? Madame's partiality is too obvious, over the years, it has been the second room that has suffered, and she will never regress this time.
Lin Xuan's beautiful eyes lingered, and she said: "Second sister-in-law, don't get me wrong, I don't have anything to spend, so I will save the monthly silver, and there are fifty taels, I will take it out, and the second sister-in-law will not laugh at it."
Shen didn't answer, the four girls seemed to have no quarrel with the world, and they didn't leak a drop of water, but Shen had never curry favor with her, and even she paid fifty taels, so what excuse did the second room have to shirk?
Mei Xueyan watched with interest, the Shen family must have realized it earlier than her, otherwise she would not have tried every possible means to drive her out of the Lin Mansion.
Now let her give so much silver, it must be unwilling, so she dragged the four girls up. If others have one or two more, she will have one or two less.
"Just right, there are four hundred and fifty taels left, and the three rooms are divided equally, one hundred and fifty taels per room, and I am in charge of the boss, Erlang Sanlang, you have no objection, right?"
Lin Sanlang suddenly turned his face sideways and said, "My silver is all handed over to Yan Niang, she just said okay."
Mei Xueyan moved her waist awkwardly, she silently wanted to mix up, of course she was not good at other people's family affairs and did not want to get involved.
Why did Lin Saburo get involved with her again?
"Has the third brother already let Miss Mei be in charge? It's really love, and I'm envious of being a girl. ”
Lin Xuan said with a smile, envious.
Shen also smashed Lin Erlang with his elbow and said, "Look at the people."
Although Mei Xueyan opened Lin Sanlang's burden and looked at it, she probably knew that his family background was quite solid, but Mei Xueyan didn't know exactly how many silver tickets he had, and she had no intention of giving Lin Sanlang as the house.
"Madame, you decide, it's inconvenient for me, an outsider, to make his own decisions."
Alien? Lin Saburo listened to her tone of putting herself out of the way, and his heart cooled a little.
Mei Xueyan is not willing to marry him!
Although Lin Saburo is dull, he is not stupid.
Just returned home, the two of them didn't like each other, and Lin Sanlang also made her feel bad, she was always lukewarm, and she didn't even owe it when she was angry.
Later, Lin Saburo recognized her, allowed her a marriage contract, and met frankly, she didn't show much joy when she heard the news, but avoided Lin Saburo.
Thinking about what she had said, most of them were in disdain, cursing him to die on the battlefield on the first day.
Everything made sense, no wonder she didn't admit his affection, didn't spend his money, didn't smile at him, and turned him away.
Lin Saburo gradually realized that it was his wishful thinking, and now she doesn't look down on him and considers herself an outsider. And Lin Saburo's promises to her are as ridiculous as a one-man show.
Lin Saburo has never encountered this kind of thing, and he is on fire in his heart, more irritable than seeing the enemy kill his colleagues and brothers, and more hateful than being betrayed by his cronies, with a tyranny that is difficult to vent in his chest.
