Chapter 57
The Lin family's preparations for the wedding were lively, but Zhu Rui was made a fuss by the county lord of Nanping. Now not only does the emperor and the queen mother know that he has a same-sex relationship, but many people in the capital have also heard about it, which makes Zhu Rui have a headache, and the two dare not meet in private.
The Lin family is also very troubled to prepare for the dowry, the Lin family itself is not short of money, but when dealing with a family like the Chen family, the lack is indeed the foundation, you can't directly take out tens of thousands of taels of silver, right? Fortunately, in the past two years, Lin Zimo has been paying attention to the acquisition of some calligraphy and painting antiques, and the last time he followed Zhu Rui's southern tour, he also got a lot of light and bought a lot of good things, so the dowry is not ugly.
Thirty-six dowry gifts plus 10,000 taels of silver dowry money are shabby and brilliant in the capital. The woman does not have too much to marry, and the dowry is only seventy-two, but the bride is very suitable for the Lin family, her appearance is just flat and straight, but she is elegant and generous, she can socialize outside, the management of the family is well organized, she is respectful and courteous to the elderly in the family, she is very thoughtful in everything, and she is also very amiable to a few uncles and sisters-in-law below.
Lin Zihao got married, and Zhu Rui also came to congratulate and sent a very heavy gift. The county lord of Nanping also came over to stare at it several times, but fortunately, the complexion on Lin Zimo's face was still black and yellow, and he couldn't see what he looked like that day at all. Cheng Guogong, the father of the lord of Nanping, also has a headache, his daughter has been spoiled since she was a child, and she wholeheartedly identifies Prince Jing, but Prince Jing ignores it, and now things are in a uproar, making it difficult for everyone to step down, but her daughter is still admitting death, staring at Zhu Rui every day and being suspicious, when is this a head?
After Lin Zihao returned to the door three days after his wedding, the family returned to Linjia Village to worship their ancestors. The old lady was too old, afraid of tossing back and forth and sick, so she didn't go back in the capital house, and the rest of the people returned to Linjia Village ten days later.
I saw a team of Yangge team, led by the patriarch and the clan elder, greeted them, and shouted: "Welcome Hualang home to worship his ancestors." "The elongated voice, the aftermath lingers. The family also got out of the car early, greeted Shi Li and said hello, and now the Lin family is not what it used to be, not only Lin Huaide has become a big official, but Lin Zihao is the Tanhualang who won the third place in the country, that is the heavenly criminal prosecution to go down to earth, in order to achieve such good results. Although Lin Zihan is a fellow jinshi, it is also amazing, Qingshui County is so big, look at how many people can be in the same jinshi?
Now the Lin family is famous within a radius of hundreds of miles because of the relationship between this family, and the descendants of the village are also inspired to be very self-motivated, and there are a few outstanding literary talents, which are the intangible wealth of the Lin family, seeing that the family is up immediately, how can they be unhappy?
The ancestor worship is grand, it seems that the last few ancestral halls have been opened because of the Lin family? This gives them an unmatched position in the family. Except for the patriarch who stood in front of him with his identity, the rest of the people stood behind their family with interest, and with their eyes, except for Lin Zimo, the three masters have all achieved good results, and now Lin Zimo is a white body.
Lin Zihao's wife Chen also worshiped her ancestors, and her extravagance dazzled the eyes of the people in the village, and everyone praised the Lin family for marrying a good daughter-in-law.
The grave of the old man of the Lin family was added to the boss, second only to the grave of the ancestor of the Lin family. No one in this family has an opinion, who makes the old man and his descendants angry?
By the time everyone returned, the officials from the ministry had already come down. Lin Zihao, along with the champion and Bangyan, entered the Hanlin Academy, became the Hanlin editor of the seventh grade, and became the subordinate of the old father-in-law. Because of these years as soon as I have time to follow my father to work in the field, I also know a lot about farming, especially a few crops grown at home, so I am often photographed by the emperor into the inner court to ask about things, and a few times, the emperor likes this smart, upright, and somewhat knowledgeable young man, and directly walks in front of the palace, although it is just a chore, but it also makes everyone red-eyed.
Lin Zihan is much more difficult, Tong Jinshi is an embarrassing deposit, there is a relationship, it would be good to be able to put a small county to be a county from the seventh grade, and the bad ones are all counties that can only be from the eighth grade. In the end, it was Zhu Rui who came forward and entered the household department, and became a petty official from the seventh rank under his father, but compared to other fellow jinshi, it was already a high distribution.
As soon as the arrangements were made, the head Lin Zihan got married, the old lady gathered everyone together, looked at her son and daughter-in-law, both of them nodded, and then said: "I called you here today to announce something, and now that the eldest grandson and daughter-in-law have entered the door, it's time for you to divide the family." The Lin brothers all looked at the old lady in surprise. The old lady ignored it and continued: "There is an old saying that is good, brothers settle accounts, you brothers didn't say it before, but in the future, you will all get married, and you will live a small life by yourself, it is inevitable to bump and bump, so it is better to calculate it clearly as soon as possible." Look at Lin Zimo: "Now Zimo has not decided to marry, but it's soon." The shares in the shop are divided into four parts, and your father and mother and I will count one for us, and you three brothers will each have one share. There are 160,000 taels of silver in the family, and each of your three brothers has 20,000 taels as the cost of marriage, and the rest is saved by yourself. Yu'er has no shares, so she will double the cash as her dowry. The rest of the money will be used as the public expenses of the government in the future. However, the wealth is not divided, and you will take the future share, and we will be separated in a hundred years. โ
Several people were silent for a while, and they were all shocked, even Lin Zimo was surprised. After getting married, they live their own lives, which is not new in modern times, but it is really a new thing here, everyone pays attention to the fact that parents are not separated, and they are separated from the uncle's family, but there is no old man in front, and the two families have a group of children, so they are separated, and they are still paid attention to behind their backs.
Now that the old lady and Father Lin and Mother Lin are out, it is obviously the old lady's idea to separate the finances in advance, and everyone will live together again, without the involvement of interests, they will definitely be able to get along in harmony. With this kind of advanced awareness, Lin Zimo had to pick a thumbs up.
Lin Zihao and Lin Zihan were a little frightened, and Chen knelt down: "Grandma, mother-in-law, is there something wrong with the daughter-in-law?" Makes a few old people angry. As soon as she entered the door, she was separated, and she couldn't help but be afraid. Zhou hurriedly stepped forward to pull her up, and said with a smile: "No, your grandmother can see far away, how many families are living, they are blinded by money, and there is discord, this is also a prevention in advance, you have already entered the door, and the second family is also about to go, even Zimo should be decided in the past two years." Now it is like this, and everyone will be clean in the future. โ
Chen couldn't help but be impressed, he had only heard that this family was from the countryside, the population was simple, the family was clean, and the husband was strong, so he agreed to get married. Because of this marriage, the brothers and sisters in the family laughed at it, saying that it was a family with mud legs, but I didn't expect the old people to think so thoroughly, stronger than some of them, and with such an open in-laws, life must be much better than others.
The family was separated in this way, and the brothers and sisters were confused for a few days, and then they settled down to see that it was no different from before.
In the blink of an eye, it is August, and Lin Zihan's wedding date is coming. To be honest, the Lin family is not optimistic about the marriage, but it is not good to refuse Lin Zihan's teacher. It's not a matter yet, it's already picky over there, it's not good to dislike the ceremony, it's not good to dislike the dowry, and in the end, there is no way, and another 5,000 taels of silver are added as a dowry, which stops, but it has exhausted the Lin family.
This bride Qian's really looked at the money, not counting the dowry, just the dowry was 15,000 taels, but it was only on the basis of the original 36 dowry, and 12 ordinary things were added, and 15,000 taels of silver were not seen. This matter is also in the Lin family, if it is placed in another family, the new daughter-in-law will never be able to raise her head in the in-law's house.
Qian doesn't care, he dresses up all day long, and he looks good, but he has a white face, a pair of Danfeng triangular eyes, and thin lips, which is not good at first glance. Lin Zimo admired the old lady at this time, and divided the family wealth in advance, no matter what kind of person he was, he couldn't turn up the storm, even if he took pity on the honest second brother, he would definitely be eaten to death in the future.
The Lin family had two happy events, and the uncle's family did not come, Ziwen's daughter-in-law asked people to bring a gift of fifty taels of silver, and her mother-in-law panicked, in order not to cause chaos to the Lin family, she simply stopped coming over there and asked her to forgive her.
Lin Zimo was very glad that when the eldest aunt came, she didn't know what to do, but fortunately she was restrained by the sister-in-law in the lobby. And the newly married one in the family, at first glance, is not a fuel-efficient lamp, just entered the door, saw that the sister-in-law was two months pregnant, and tried to โกโก housekeeper, this is not a sale, it can be returned if it is not good, it is a headache to think about.
Three months have passed, the sister-in-law has a big belly, the second sister-in-law is also two months pregnant, Lin Yu's in-laws have also made up their minds, and Lin Zimo is still single at home, worrying about the old lady and Lin's father and mother. The Lin family's family background is not prominent, and the four-grade officials of Lin's father are not conspicuous, and the two brothers of the Lin family have their own futures, so they are favored. And Lin Zimo has no future, and his ability is not conspicuous because he conceals it, so almost no one gives him a guarantee.
Of course, Lin Zimo himself didn't care, and he was a little glad that it saved him a lot of trouble. He is now going to the farm to have a look, inspect the two workshops, steal a tryst with Zhu Rui, and his life is very leisurely.
Wound stitching technology has been carried out in the army, Ju Zhurui said, Sanhuang Water and Shengjisan have a super effect, and the Tartar and small bandits in the war, these have played a big role, saving a lot of wounded people who have not been treated before, Lin Zimo's name, under Zhu Rui's deliberate suppression, with these drugs and technologies, quietly spread in the army.
After going in and out a few times without danger, both of them were a little careless, on this day, they had just returned from the farm where they planted potatoes and tomatoes with Zhu Rui, usually when the two of them were together, Zhu Rui didn't want Lin Zimo to blacken his skin, because he was very tired, so he just lowered the hat of his cloak and hurriedly followed Zhu Rui into a restaurant to eat. Who knows, I was running into the county lord of Nanping, and the county lord grabbed Lin Zimo and made a fuss at the door of the restaurant.
There will be people watching it for a long time, and after a while, there will be people on the three floors inside and three layers outside. Because of the Lin family's wedding, Zhu Rui went and gave a big gift, and the entourage of the county lord of Nanping really paid attention to it, so he recognized Lin Zimo's entourage from Xiao Yan and Han Qi at a glance.
This time the pot was fried, and the anger of the county lord of Nanping came out, and he dragged Lin Zimo and began to scratch and beat, Zhu Rui couldn't pull her away, and he was afraid that he would hurt Lin Zimo too hard, so he had to lean sideways between the two of them to protect Lin Zimo from being injured.
If he wasn't too worried about causing trouble for his family, Lin Zimo almost laughed, this is the same fucking posture as playing a junior on the modern street! And the actor of the junior is him Lin Zimo.
