Chapter 37: The Lin Family
It seems that all the wives and ladies of the Lin family have arrived, there are so many people, it is really prosperous! Tang Wan couldn't help but sigh.
There are more people and more lively, but non also follows, as the saying goes, three women in one play, a group of women chatting and not knowing how many plays. …… Tang Wan felt that she was now in the theater garden, watching a group of people act.
Mrs. Lin took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Auntie, your tea here is good, it has a quiet aroma, and I can't brew it in my own house." ”
"Yo, sister-in-law, it's all cloud tea in the warehouse, and the aunt's here is more fragrant than yours?" Mrs. Lin San looked at Mrs. Lin with a sneering face, and felt unhappy: I came to pat Mrs. Lin's ass again, and she was always one step faster than her, which was really annoying! But now to pat Mrs. Lin's ass, it seems to be a little late, the big head is taken up, only the broth is left, is she going to rob her, why does she covet Mrs. Lin's dowry?
Thinking of this, Mrs. Lin San's face was pale, and she looked at the other side: "What do you say, fourth brother and sister?" ”
Mrs. Lin Si said: "The tea here is really good, but it's not the tea that's good, it's the craftsmanship of the jadeite, which of the people under the aunt is not a top person?" ”
was ridiculed, Mrs. Lin was so angry that her liver hurt, some time ago she bought a can of good Tieguanyindong for Mrs. Lin, and the third lady knew about it, and she kept stabbing her with this matter, this long-tongued woman! Say what others do, have the ability to send it yourself, and your own iron rooster is not allowed to be generous. What a man! Let you please you, and the result will be taken advantage of, what to do with her, and the person who really gets the benefit is not her! Mrs. Lin was about to speak, but Mrs. Lin San took the lead.
"Exactly, sister-in-law, what you said is not true, aunt is a person who can live, and she will never spend a lot of money to buy the good tea you said in private! But the four siblings are right or not, who is the eldest aunt, and she still cares about this star? Although Brother Ping passed to the long house, the eldest aunt's money is not from the long house, let alone Brother Ping's, and the four brothers and sisters don't need to remind the eldest aunt to save! Mrs. Lin San sneered, obviously the latter words are the point!
Heir? What is it? Tang Wan was a little puzzled.
Sure enough, Lin Jiafu didn't understand: "Grandmother, do you want to give the long house a step-heir?" ”
"Sister Fu'er came back just in time, and if it is two days late, it will not be able to catch up with your eighth brother's succession ceremony, and it is also a beautiful day, I can't bear to separate your sister and brother on such an important occasion!" Mrs. Lin Si said with a smile, of course she was happy, it was her youngest son who succeeded her, and the huge family business of Lin Changfang's house belonged to her son!
"Eighth brother is coming to the long house?" Lin Jiafu looked at Old Madam Lin in surprise.
"Well, open the ancestral hall in five days and ask for a family tree." Old Madam Lin nodded lightly, and then her face showed tiredness: "I'm tired today, you guys go back first!" ”
Mrs. Lin, Mrs. Lin, and Mrs. Lin looked at each other, understood that Mrs. Lin was going to talk to Lin Jiafu, and knew that it was time to go back today, so they each took their daughters to stand up and say goodbye, and Mrs. Lin Wu followed at the end.
"Why did grandmother take the eighth stepbrother?" Lin Jiafu asked Old Madam Lin with wide eyes.
"I don't want either, but the family business of the long house can't fall into your hands, and there will always be successors in the clan, and it just so happens that I owe others favors, so I naturally agreed." Old Madam Lin didn't avoid Tang Wan either, and said straightforwardly: "Sister Fu'er, don't worry, grandmother has arranged it." You just have to be obedient, have fun, and look good. After speaking, she showed tiredness, this time she was not pretending, she was really tired.
Tang Wan sighed on the side, seeing that Old Madam Lin was like this, her health was really poor, could it really be as the letter said that there were not many days? When she is about to die, her only wish is that Lin Jiafu can live well. "You just have to have fun and look good." How many elders' thoughts are spoken in this sentence, and how many elders' blessings are contained? Isn't that the case with Cui's?
"Grandmother is tired and wants to rest, Sister Fu'er should also go back to the room, Wan'er will stay and help me clean up." Old Madam Lin looked at Tang Wan and said.
"Grandmother." Lin Jiafu wanted to speak and stopped.
"Good, go ahead!" Old Madam Lin touched her head and said softly.
Lin Jiafu had no choice but to go.
After Lin Jiafu left, Mrs. Lin assigned all the people in the house out, and only she and Tang Wan were left in the huge room.
"Auntie, if you have something to say, just say it."
Sure enough, a keen one! Old Madam Lin smiled: "Your sister always likes to talk about you on weekdays, saying that the second sister is the most gentle temper and the kindest heart, and I think it is the most ice and snow smart." ”
Sister, Tang Yan? Tang Wan closed her mouth, not knowing how to answer.
"Okay, let's talk about it another day, and now I want to talk to you about the succession." Old Madam Lin leaned on the soft couch, leaned over, her face was pale, and there was no blood on her lips: "Actually, I don't want to succeed!" ”
If you don't want to, why say yes? Tang Wan wanted to ask, but she knew that Old Madam Lin herself would say that there was no need to ask at all, and sure enough, Old Madam Lin continued: "I don't want to, but I can't help it!" ”
As if thinking of something sad, Old Madam Lin gasped violently, and Tang Wan hurriedly helped her to calm down: "Don't worry, speak slowly!" ”
Perhaps it was Tang Wan's movements that made her more comfortable, but Old Madam Lin relieved herself and sighed faintly: "People are old, they are useless, and they are not far from death!" ”
Well, Tang Wan also thinks so, but she can't say this: "Auntie's body is weaker, but if you take care of it, you can still have a good time!" ”
"Hehe," Mrs. Lin smiled: "You are sincere, my nieces and daughters-in-law only know that they come to ask for peace and quarrel every day, saying that they are filial piety, and they look at me to live a long life, but in fact, I can't be at peace every day, and I can't even rest." I know that they flattered me because they wanted to beat my idea, and some time ago they wanted me to succeed their son, and now the heir wants my dowry again, hum! Naturally, my dowry will be left to Sister Fu'er! It's the property of the long house that can't be moved except for the well-known, and secretly they don't want to get the slightest, I've been in charge of the long house for so many years, I really think I'm dying of old age, confused?! ”
Looking at Mrs. Lin's old and refined appearance, Tang Wan said in her heart: With your spirit, who dares to say that you are confused? Tang Wan remained silent and continued to help her get her down.
"Changfang was originally the patriarch in charge of the genealogy, but since Yue'er's death, there was no male heir, and the situation has taken a sharp turn for the worse, and the male who has lost the support portal cannot continue the inheritance, and the patriarch has fallen to the second room. Originally, I also wanted to leave an outstanding heir to the long house, but after the game, the candidate they gave was Brother Ping, who was only six years old! If you don't want to pass by, forget it, I know that I can't afford to raise it, but the excellent son of the adult heir, isn't it just bullying no one in the long house, bullying me to die? ”
"Since I'm going to die, what's the difference between passing and not succeeding? Get a child over, and who knows which house the property of the long house will become? There is only one sister in the long house, if she gets married, the long house will be extinct! ”
