Ren Shijia was very happy to see Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua sisters come to see her together, although Ren Yaoqi had only met at the ceremony a few days ago.

Xiao Lin Cen can already walk and talk, he looks white and fat, and he laughs when he sees people, which is very likable. Seeing an acquaintance, he quickly climbed to the kang table and grabbed two pieces of honey cakes, stuffed a piece for Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua, and looked at them with blank eyes: "Sister, eat cakes." ”

It made everyone in the room laugh.

Ren Shijia now has a son and everything is enough, and the only thought in his heart is to protect his son to grow up safely. It's just that because she has suffered too many losses before, and seeing her son grow up day by day, she is becoming more and more defensive against other people in the Lin family, for fear that Brother Cen will be harmed one day.

Ren Shijia proposed to Lin Kun several times to move out of the old mansion of the Lin Mansion to set up his own door, but Lin Kun had other plans in his heart, so he did not follow Ren Shijia's wishes. Ren Shijia has a docile temperament, and the husband and wife have never blushed for many years, but because of this incident, Ren Shijia and Lin Kun have quarreled several times.

Ren Shijia is strong as a mother, and she doesn't care about completely tearing her face with the Lin family for the sake of her son, but Lin Kun's obsession with the Lin family is too deep.

Ren Shijia and Ren Yaoqi sisters talked about the affairs of the Ren family, and Ren Shijia was naturally clear about the current predicament of her mother's family, after the accident, Lin Kun also went to help with the fifth master Ren Shimao, but the Lin family itself has a lot of things, Lin Kun can't stay in Baihe Town all the time, not to mention that Lin Kun is only a son-in-law no matter what, and the old lady Ren may not be able to trust him wholeheartedly. Lin Kun simply came back, and only did some effort when the Ren family needed his help.

Ren Shijia is naturally worried about her mother's family, but she has never asked about things outside, even if she is worried, she is powerless.

Ren Yaoqi hugged Lin Cen into his arms, and asked Ren Shijia while peeling pine nuts for him: "Uncle is out?" ”

Ren Shijia wiped Lin Cen's mouth with a handkerchief: "Isn't this the end of the month, he will see the shopkeeper in the outer courtyard, and he will go back to the inner courtyard to eat at noon." You also stayed for dinner today, and a while ago, the fifth brother asked people to get some mountain treasures from the northeast. Let me send some just in time for the kitchen to get some new dishes to try. ”

Ren Shimao, the fifth master, has done a very wide range of business since he left the Ren family to set up his own door, in addition to the pen and ink shop, he also opened a shop specializing in mountain and sea goods, and he made some local specialties to sell all day long, and the business was actually good. In her kitchen, she often receives all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas sent by the guys in Ren Shimao's shop. Master Lin Wu has a wide range of money, and he is very generous to his brothers and sisters.

Lin Kun really came back before setting up lunch in the inner courtyard, Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua got up to greet him, and he greeted him very gently.

Lin Cen quickly climbed down from the kang, ran to Lin Kun's side, and hugged his legs. smiled so much that he couldn't see his eyes: "Daddy, hug." ”

Lin Kun didn't come to hug his grandson or not his son, he bent down and hugged his son, let him sit on his arm, gently pinched his fleshy little round face and asked with a smile: "Brother Cen is not well-behaved today?" Did you make your mother angry? ”

Lin Cen bit his fingers and was stupid, Ren Shijia couldn't look at it, stepped forward to take Lin Cen, and said angrily: "Go in quickly, change your clothes, clean your hands, and then hug your son." ”

Lin Kun didn't care, and entered the inner room with a smile.

Lin Cen broke away from Ren Shijia's embrace and fell to the ground. Chasing his father on his short legs: "Daddy, Daddy, Daddy......"

Ren Shijia looked at his son's back and complained to Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua half-truthfully: "If you have no conscience, you know that Lu Dao is pestering his father." Although he said that, Ren Shijia had a smile in his eyes.

Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but smile when he watched the interaction of this family of three.

After running out of food in Ren Shijia's yard. Brother Cen has a habit of taking a lunch break, Ren Shijia took his son to the inner room to coax him to sleep, and Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua took the opportunity to say goodbye.

It just so happened that Lin Kun was also going to the outer courtyard, so he went out with the two sisters by the way.

Lin Kun said a few words of comfort about the affairs of the Ren family. mentioned his wife and son again, Ren Shijia and Brother Cen were in a very good mood today because they came to the guests. Lin Kun invited them to come to Lin's house more often on weekdays.

Ren Yaochi said with a smile: "I heard my aunt ask my mother about the house in Aquarius Hutong before, and I thought that if my aunt and Brother Cen lived close to us, it would be more convenient to come and go. ”

Lin Kun paused when he heard this, and then said: "Your aunt mentioned before that she wanted to buy a house in Aquarius Hutong, and I also asked someone to inquire, but I didn't like a suitable one." ”

Ren Yaochi nodded and said bluntly: "Since I had Brother Cen, my aunt has always wanted to move out of Lu to live, although the Lin family's old house is big, it is inevitable that there are many people and it is not convenient. ”

In fact, although the population of the Amenlin family is quite large, because the house is large enough, it is far from the point where there are many people. It's just that Lin Kun didn't refute Ren Yaoqi's words, why Ren Shijia didn't like to live in the Lin family, they all knew very well.

Lin Kun was a little surprised, although Ren Yaoqi was not very old, he had always been sensible and sensible, and he would never embarrass people in person, why did he repeatedly mention the Lin family's family affairs in front of him today?

After a moment of silence, Lin Kun sighed and said with a wry smile: "Where is it so easy. ”

Lin Kun didn't want to reassure his wife, but he was carrying too many things, and he had been obsessed with it for so many years, and some things were not something he wanted to let go.

Ren Yaochi thought about it, but said with a smile: "I think that whether or not you can succeed in doing anything depends on the timing, and when the time comes, things will be easier." ”

Ren Yaoqi's words made Lin Kun's heart move, and he couldn't help but glance at Ren Yaoqi in surprise,

Lin Kun lowered his head and muttered for a moment, and then said tentatively: "I got a good can of Longjing a while ago, I am a rough person who doesn't know how to taste tea, I heard that your father knows this best, why don't you come and help me taste it, if you think the tea is okay, help me bring it back to the third brother?" ”

Ren Yaochi did not refuse, and responded with a smile.

Ren Yaohua glanced at Ren Yaoqi, although she didn't understand which one Ren Yaoqi was singing, but she still didn't ask anything, and seeing that Ren Yaochi didn't mean to break her aside, she still followed Ren Yaoqi's side.

Lin Kun took them to a pavilion in the courtyard that was open on all sides, and then ordered someone to go to his study to bring tea and tea sets.

Although Lin Kun is the uncle of Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua, after all, he is a man with a different surname, so it is always difficult to talk behind closed doors, but he sits in the pavilion and drinks tea together, even if people see it, they won't say anything.

So the three of them tasted tea in the pavilion for half an hour, and Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua said goodbye and left.

Lin Kun watched their carriage slowly drive out of the Lin Mansion, although he still had a peaceful smile on his face. In my heart, I haven't recovered from the excitement of turning the river and the sea.

Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua didn't speak after getting into the carriage, Ren Yaoqi leaned on the pillow and lowered his eyes slightly, not knowing what Lu Dao was thinking, but Ren Yaohua was turning the teacup in his hand in a daze.

It wasn't until the carriage was about to turn into the treasure bottle alley that Ren Yaohua finally asked, "Can you really let the Lin family successfully split up?" ”

Ren Yaoqi raised his eyes and smiled, and shook his head: "I naturally don't have this ability." ”

Ren Yaohua frowned.

Ren Yaochi said again: "This is the Lin family's housework, so the most important thing to rely on is my uncle himself, and no one can give him a strong head." He has endured for many years, and there must be a lot of chips in his hand, and he has been hiding and not releasing it, just because the time has not yet come, and he does not dare to take risks. ”

And if Lin Kun is really the kind of person who has to rely on others for everything, Ren Yaochi will not pick him, although part of the reason why she picked the Lin family is for Ren Shijia and Lin Cen.

Ren Yaoqi will not forget the kindness given to her by others in difficult times. It is natural to reciprocate the favor. Otherwise, Ren Yaoqi's choice is not just one Lin family.

And Lin Kun is an extremely tolerant person, his scheming is deep enough, and his ability is not bad. From the perspective of Ren Shijia's niece, although Ren Yaoqi doesn't like him very much, if they work together, this kind of person is still worth appreciating. Because he has a clear goal, is cautious and does not easily shake his position.

"Is the time now?" Ren Yaohua was still frowning.

Ren Yaochi thought about it and said with a smile: "If someone helps, the time will naturally come." Lin Kun has worked hard to sell well in front of the Ren family over the years. Isn't it just to win the support of the Ren family? It's just that now the Ren family is afraid that he won't be able to get his wish, and the other one I found for him is much better than the Ren family. ”

What old man Ren has thought of the Lin family over the years, others don't know. Ren Yaoqi is very clear. The Ren family has never done loss-making business, if it is said that the old man Ren has no intention of taking a piece of the Lin family after the separation of the Lin family through the hand of his son-in-law, even if Ren Yao is willing to believe Lin Kun himself, he will not believe it.

Ren Yaohua was silent for a longer time when she heard this.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Ren Yaoqi looked at her and smiled: "Third sister is worried that the Lei family will not agree?" ”

Ren Yaohua finally raised her head when she mentioned the Lei family.

Ren Yaoqi asked Ren Yaohua to come with him today. When talking to Lin Kun, she didn't shy away from her, she already had the intention of teaching her, she turned her head and asked, "The Lei family and the Han family have been fighting for so many years. After the balance of Yanbei Wangfu has been tilted towards the Lei family, the momentum of the Han family has not decreased too much, and they still have the ability to compete with the Lei family. ”

Ren Yaohua frowned and thought for a while: "Is it because the Lei family has only moved back for a short time and has not yet gained a foothold in Yanbei, and the Lei family has withered, it is not easy to re-cultivate contacts?" ”

Ren Yaoqi bowed his head and said: "This is also part of the reason. Let me ask you again, if one day the Yanbei Wangfu needs to suppress a certain merchant for some reason, and it is impossible for the Yanbei Wangfu to do this kind of thing, who do you think he will hand over this matter to? ”

Ren Yaochi is actually alluding to the affairs of the Ren family, during this time, she sometimes chats with Ren Yaohua about the situation of various families in Yanbei, but Ren Yaoqi did not tell Ren Yaohua the inside story of the Ren family's bad luck.

Ren Yaohua thought for a while and replied, "The Han family? ”

Ren Yaochi smiled: "Throughout history, even if there will be one or two traitors around Mingjun, in fact, it is not necessarily that Mingjun does not distinguish between loyalty and traitor, but there are some things that loyal ministers can't do, and someone must carry this black pot for Mingjun." Although this metaphor is not appropriate, the Han family is not a traitor, but it just happens to explain the relationship between the Yanbei Palace, the Lei family and the Han family. The Lei family is a family, and it is inconvenient for the children of the family to do business, although the Lei family has a lot of property in their hands, but they are all handed over to the steward to take care of, Lei Ting, as the head of the Lei family, it is inconvenient for him to do it himself, so some things are not so easy for the Lei family to take over. At the beginning, the Yun family and the Su family had a similar relationship. ”

Ren Yaohua listened with understanding.

"So what the Lei family needs most now is a right-hand man. Originally, the Lei family and the Ren family were married, and it was most suitable for the Ren family to play this role, but it was a pity that ......"

It's a pity that Old Man Ren's eyelids are too shallow, and he is embarrassed by the big responsibility, even if the Lei family really falls in love with the Ren family, Ren Yaochi will not agree to let the Lei family and the Ren family cooperate. Wear as big a hat as you want, otherwise the Lei family will not only get help, but a scourge.

"But now the Lin family is a good choice. After you marry into the Lei family, the Lin family and the Lei family can also be regarded as in-laws. Although my uncle is a little deeper, his ability is good, and if the Lei family can pull him at this time and let him successfully regain what he deserves, he will definitely be grateful to Thunder, and the Lei family will also get a right-hand man. This is a win-win situation for both the Lei family and the Lin family. ”

Ren Yaohua was a little stunned after hearing this, although she was no longer so impulsive these days under Ren Yaoqi's advice, and she would use her brain first instead of doing it first when she encountered things, but she listened to Ren Yaoqi's words. She still felt the gap between the two. Although she could understand these twists and turns after Ren Yaoqi's explanation, she could only understand them.

Ren Yaoqi didn't care about Ren Yaohua's stunnedness, and then sighed: "The Ren family itself is difficult to protect, the foundation of the Xianwang Mansion is not in Yanbei, and the Lei family is on the cusp of the storm. Third sister, this road will not be easy to follow in the future, so we will inevitably need to calculate more. ”

Ren Yaoqi has no way to support a maiden family that can shelter their sisters from the wind and rain in the short term, but she can tie the interests of the Lei family to the "maiden family". When the Lin family played his due role, the people of the Lei family naturally did not dare to look down on Ren Yaohua, the lady in charge.

This is the coping method that Ren Yaochi came up with. It's not perfect, but so far she's only been able to do it.

Ren Yaohua naturally knew that Ren Yao's calculation was so that she could marry the Lei family in the future, so she was a little speechless for a while. Over the years, she always felt that she had to protect her mother and sister, in fact, she knew it in her heart. It has always been Ren Yaoqi's sister who has been protecting her.

"When are you going to meet the people of the Lei family?" Ren Yaohua was silent for a while, and then asked.

Ren Yaoqi was a little hesitant, she didn't want to come forward to talk to Lei Ting in person, because it was not suitable.

I thought about it. Ren Yaochi shook his head and said, "I don't plan to come forward, let's let my uncle go to Thunder." ”

Seeing Ren Yaohua frowning and silent, Ren Yaoqi thought that she was worried that the two families would not be able to get along. Instead, he smiled and said, "I heard that the Han family has been getting closer to the Yun family recently?" ”

Although Ren Yaoqi has not been going out much these days, it does not mean that she knows nothing about external affairs, on the contrary, she pays a lot of attention to those families.

Han Yunqian performed well in this autumn festival, won the first place Xie Yuan, and was appreciated by a civil official named Sheng Shihong in Yanbei. Although Sheng Shihong is not from a big family, he has been assisting the king of Yanbei for many years, and he is the first adviser of the Yanbei Palace.

Therefore, although Han Yunqian has not yet obtained an official position in Yanbei, he has a bright future because he was accepted as a protégé by Sheng Shihong. Although the Han family is far inferior to the Yun family, Han Yunqian is a rare talent.

Now that the Su family is going downhill, the Lei family is coming from behind, and there are faint signs of fighting with the Yun family.

Ren Yaohua didn't know about these things, and couldn't help asking: "Is it possible for the Yun family to marry the Han family?" ”

Ren Yaohua felt that it was unlikely, after all, the gap between the family backgrounds of the two sides was there, but Ren Yaoqi knew that the Han family had married the Yun family in the previous life. Nothing is impossible under the premise of aligning interests.

"I remember that the eldest lady of the Yun family is one or two years older than the third sister, and she must be married in these two years." Ren Yaochi shook his head and said, "The Han family wants to form an alliance with the Yun family, once the matter is completed, the Lei family will definitely be at a disadvantage in this struggle, so the Lei family also needs to write quickly to make a decision." The Lin family took the initiative to come to the door at this time, which happened to be in line with the Lei family's wishes. ”

"What about the Su family?"

Ren Yaoqi took a sip of tea, smiled when he heard the words, although he didn't say it directly, Ren Yaohua understood what Ren Yaoqi meant.

The Su family, I'm afraid they have already become outcasts.

These power struggles Ren Yaohua originally thought that she was far away from herself, but now it seems that she has stepped into the center of this spiral nest. It's impossible not to be frightened, but she looked up at Ren Yaoqi, who looked calm and calm, but found that she didn't feel scared anymore, but there was a surge of energy in her heart.

She thought of Thunder, the man who was calm and confident at all times, and never panicked. Ren Yaohua knows that Ren Yaoqi and Thunder belong to the same type of people. As if there is no problem in the world that they can't solve, Mount Tai can be calmly treated before the collapse. Ren Yaohua also wanted to be like them at this moment, not for anything else, just to be able to stand with them when they needed it and share their worries, instead of hiding behind them and accepting shelter.

Ren Yaoqi didn't know that Ren Yaohua had changed her heart after being taught a lesson by her.

What Ren Yao thought was that leaving aside the personal feud between the Han family and the Ren family was actually not a bad thing for Yanbei to leave the Han family. The Han family and the Yun family formed an alliance, the Lei family and the Lin family were one, plus the Yanbei Palace, which sat firmly in Diaoyutai. All parties in Yanbei can achieve checks and balances, which is conducive to the long-term peace and stability of Yanbei.

If the Han family is completely suppressed and the Yun family dies down, then in the long run, the momentum of the Lei family and the Lin family in Yanbei will be unmatched, which is actually not a good thing for the Lei family. Sometimes there is a competitor who is always close by your side, which can promote the development of the family and also make the superior feel at ease.

Ren Yaoqi is not an ordinary housewife, coupled with Xiao Jingxi's relationship, she will naturally not be limited to narrow grievances and interests between families.

Therefore, Ren Yaochi did not intend to meddle in the affairs of the Han family and the Yun family. As long as Old Man Han doesn't do too much to hurt her important people, she doesn't mind everyone coexisting peacefully.

Not long after returning from the Lin family, Ren Yaochi received the news handed to her by Lin Kun, and Lei Ting really agreed to cooperate with Lin Kun.

In fact, Thunder's choice is much wider than that of the Lin family. But Thunder made a decision so quickly, and there must be Ren Yaohua's relationship in it.

Not long after this incident, there were rumors that the Lin family was going to split up.

The Lin family naturally refused to give half of the property to Lin Kun, but this time Lin Kun was obviously prepared. Lin Kun invited a few elders of the clan to spread out the documents left by his great-grandfather when he was alive when the family was separated, and the words were clear in black and white.

The old lady of the Lin family refused to admit it. Lin Kun and Mrs. Lin talked privately for half an hour, and I don't know how Lin Kun said to the old lady, Mrs. Lin, who originally refused to break up, changed her mind after coming out, and agreed to divide the Lin family's property according to the will of Lin Kun's great-grandfather when he was alive, and the old house of the Lin family belonged to the long house, and Lin Kun moved out of the Lin family to set up another door. It's just that Mrs. Lin's face was very ugly when she made this decision, and she couldn't afford to be sick after she went back.

The Lei family has never appeared in this matter from beginning to end, but Ren Yaoqi knows better than anyone that the Lei family has made a contribution. Otherwise, with Lin Kun's strength alone, he would not be able to invite those highly respected elders of the Lei family to come forward.

And what finally forced Mrs. Lin to give in was nothing more than the evidence that the Lin family's house killed in order to embezzle the second house's property and murder Lin Kun's heirs over the years.

Lin Kun's grievances with Changfang are no longer just family property disputes, so Lin Kun is not afraid of tearing his face with Changfang to face Bo Gongtang, the reason why Lin Kun has hidden it over the years is not to estimate the overall situation of the Lin family, but to wait for an opportunity to kill with one blow.

With the help of the Lei family, Lin Kun finally arrived.
