brothers
Qiushi Dongxue and Liu's mother took the two sisters and Chunyu and Xia Feng to their room. The Lin Mansion is not big, and it is not as big as the house they live in the countryside. Of course, this was not surprising to Lin Yuniang, a place like the capital has always been expensive. What makes Lin Yuniang happy is that although the Lin Mansion is not very good, it is still relatively good-looking, with rockeries, green trees, and a stream. I don't know if I dug it on purpose.
This is a two-entry courtyard, Qiu Shi said: "The front is where the master and the young master live, and the back is where the lady and the young lady live." Lin Yuniang pouted, the evil old society, patriarchy or something is the most annoying! You must know that there are 5 female dependents in their family, and only 3 men.
Just like in the countryside, Lin Yuniang and Lin Yueniang's houses are next to each other. When the two of them arrived at their rooms, they each cleaned up their rooms. said that it was to clean up, Lin Yuniang didn't do it, it was just the spring rain and autumn fruit. The room looked tidy up, the futon was brand new, but the furnishings were a little less, only a table and chairs, and two wardrobes.
Mother Liu brought a small box and said to Lin Yuniang: "Madame knows that the two girls are coming, and they specially prepared it for you." ”
Lin Yuniang was a little relieved again, she was still very concerned about the two sisters. She opened it and saw that it contained two gold ingots and three silver ingots. Lin Yuniang's mouth twitched, and it was really straightforward! But Lin Yuniang is quite happy, she is such a layman, she likes this kind of straightforwardness!
Mother Liu reminded her beside her: "Girl, this is a double layer. ”
Lin Yuniang glanced at the box, no wonder she felt a little strange. She took out the gold and silver ingots, and placed them on the bed next to her, and carefully removed the other layer in case there was anything good inside.
Lin Yuniang saw that it was really a good thing, and inside was a set of jewelry, not the kind of cheap things they bought in the countryside, this set of jewelry looked very expensive. Lin Yuniang didn't know what kind of material it was, it looked like gold and jade.
Liu's mother said: "The second girl also has a set there, and Madame is afraid that you don't like what she chooses, so there is only this set." Madame said, when you come, let you choose for yourself. I'm going to take you to make clothes tomorrow! ”
Lin Yuniang really wants to try that set of jewelry, she hasn't officially worn jewelry yet! But Mother Liu and Qiu Shi are here, and she doesn't want her new maid and nurse to feel that they haven't seen the world. As for the spring rain, well, it's better not to be more earthy than anyone else.
After packing up their things, the two sisters still went to Lin's mother to talk, but Lin Yuniang still adhered to her consistent style and did not take the initiative to speak. Mother Lin answered her questions well. Although Mother Lin frowned, she didn't say anything.
After a short time, two little boys walked in, and one jumped directly on Lin Mu's body: "Mother-" Lin Mu's face suddenly became cheerful, and she stretched out her hand to hug the little boy: "Fifth brother, you be careful." Then he said to the older boy next to him, "Brother Guan'er, you're back." ”
The older boy stood there and politely said, "Yes, Mother." ”
The smile on Mother Lin's face dimmed a little, but she still said with a smile: "Brother Guan'er, how many times has my mother said it, why are you so polite to my mother!" ”
The boy listened to Mother Lin's words, and there was a little smile on his face: "Yes, mother." ”
Lin Yuniang watched as Mother Lin ignored the two sisters after the two boys came in. Originally, she was still thinking that maybe the feelings were mutual, and she couldn't always expect others to pay. Now that she's here, she shouldn't be wary of her family anymore.
It's a pity that Lin Yuniang's heart was cold again when she saw the scene just now, she felt that her previous thoughts were too stupid, what era is she now! It is an era when parents can sell their children, husbands can sell their wives, a woman has no other way to live on her own than to sell herself, and women will never have an important time for men! As a daughter, she is less important than a son; As a wife, she is not as good as her children and in-laws, and she may not even be as good as a concubine; As a sister, everyone has their own family.
What else could she rely on, she thought? You can't rely on anything! Only on her own, feelings or something, she is too stingy and unwilling to give it to others. She looked at Lin Yueniang, Lin Yueniang looked at the two brothers, although she had a smile on her face, but with Lin Yuniang's understanding of her, she was also a little sad.
The younger boy looked at Lin Yuniang and the two sisters and asked, "Mother, who are they?" My sister? ”
Mother Lin reacted at this time, glanced at them weakly, and said to the little boy, "Yes, they are your sisters." This is your second sister, this is your third sister, you are compatriots! He said to Lin Yueniang and Lin Yuniang: "This is your eldest brother, this is your little brother." Do you remember? ”
Lin Yueniang whispered: "Naturally, I remember." She stood up and saluted, "Big brother." ”
Brother Lin's name is Lin Yingguan, he should be eight years old this year, and Brother Lin's younger brother is called Lin Yingwu, who is Lin Yuniang's younger brother, because he is the fifth child of the Lin family, so everyone usually calls him "Fifth Brother".
Lin Yingwu saw that Lin Yueniang just called Lin Yingguan alone, she was unhappy, and shouted: "Why don't you call me, call me quickly." Lin Yueniang called again: "Fifth brother." ”
Lin Yingwu still didn't seem to be very happy, but he also knew that he couldn't lose his temper at Lin Yueniang now, he saw that Lin Yuniang had been sitting there, and immediately said happily: "You, stand up quickly!" ”
Mother Lin patted Lin Yingwu lightly: "Don't make trouble!" Said to Lin Yuniang: "Yuniang, say hello to your brother and brother." ”
Lin Yuniang is in an extremely bad mood at the moment, if it were in modern times, she would have left a long time ago. But in this damn ancient world, she still had to endure it. She tried to restrain herself, stood up and shouted, "Big brother, little brother." ”
Lin Yingwu wanted to say something, but Lin Mu glanced at him: "Sit down, don't make trouble!" He stopped talking.
Lin Yingguan greeted them very politely: "I knew that the two younger sisters were coming, but I didn't know when it would come, so I didn't wait for you." I've got a gift for you, and I'll send it to your room later. ”
Although Lin Ying looked very polite, Lin Yuniang still didn't have a good impression of him, thinking that he was pretending, and she herself knew that it should be jealousy. She restrained the unhappiness in her heart and thanked Lin Yingguan with Lin Yueniang.
Lin Yingwu joined in the excitement and said, "I want it too, I want it too." ”
Lin Yingguan smiled and said, "Okay, I'll give it to you when the time comes." ”
The relationship between the two brothers is not bad, Lin Yuniang looked at them and felt that she was an outsider. Although she kept telling herself that she was an outsider, somehow, she still felt unhappy when she saw this scene.
