CHAPTER XXXIX

On this night's Chinese New Year's Eve, the Lin family group sat in the New Year, without Lin Biyun, maybe it won't be long after the year, Lin Biyue will also get married, and then the family may be even more lonely.

He was melancholy in his heart, but he cheered up and laughed with his children, talking about the time when Lin Baosheng picked a merchant to walk the streets and alleys, and his life was hard but also quite tasteful. He also talked about the interesting stories of his four children when they were young, although they were old things, but they could not hide the warmth of the room.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the family brought pastries to the door to greet Aunt Lin for the New Year.

Aunt Lin is not half a point worse than when her son was alive and depressed, and the ancestral house is nervous, and she doesn't dare to pave the New Year's goods even for the New Year, but He pretends to be stupid and refuses to help half a point, how can Aunt Lin not be angry? During the New Year, He and his three children were reprimanded.

He doesn't pay much attention to his mother-in-law's words now, so it's good to do all the etiquette. She only thinks that the breeze is in her ears, but she is afraid that the three children will be wronged in their hearts, and they will have something in their hearts for the New Year, how do they know that when they look sideways, the little girl is making a grimace with Brother Nan'er, but the second sister is staring at her grandma, and she is not angry at all with a smile.

What's going on?

He secretly wondered, and when he came out of the ancestral house, he asked Lin Biyue the reason.

Although Lin Biyue blushed, she didn't say anything, but it was a ghost and a ghost who laughed at Lin Biluo: "The second sister is about to think that she will definitely be able to marry within the year, so she doesn't have to listen to Grandma's reprimand, so she has the right to watch the show, right?" ”

Sure enough, she was taught to say it, but Lin Biyue had already admitted it with a look on her face.

Lin Biluo knew what the second sister was thinking, and the worries in her heart before the year ago were even more unspeakable. Anyway, this is a personal choice, in addition to being her sister, in addition to exploring for her, she can't force her sister to make decisions for her life events.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Lin Biyun and Wu Song came to visit the New Year, carrying a big light bulb Wu Bai by the way.

Wu Bai hasn't seen Lin Biluo for a few days, when she saw the New Year, she was wearing a red jacket and red skirt at the right time, with a plum blossom hairpin in her hair, and the earrings were also in the style of a small plum blossom......

Lin Biluo's hairpin ring, together with Lin Biyue's, was played by the He family for the other two daughters when Lin Biyun got married, and prepared to wear it during the New Year.

He saw his daughter and son-in-law, and he was happy, so he kept them to eat. The things in the kitchen are prepared a few days in advance, many of them are cooked food, such as elbow roast chicken, and some can be eaten directly from the pot, such as dumplings, all kinds of steamed haode dim sum.

When Ying'er brought the dim sum to the table, Lin Biyue also complained: "Sister A's marriage, A-Niang didn't cook, and the matter of steaming dim sum fell on my head, and I made several kinds of dim sum, but it was not as delicious as Sister A's cooking." ”

Years ago, the Wu family was preparing for the New Year, Lin Biyun showed her skills in the kitchen, and won the unanimous recognition and praise of the Wu family, and even the Gu family has been teaching Wu Mei: "Learn more from your sister-in-law, and when the time comes, your aunt will not be so worried." ”

Wu Mei has a sweet mouth, and people are kind, and they have to learn from the front and back, Lin Biyun uses all her skills to teach her sister-in-law wholeheartedly, and the relationship between the two sisters-in-law has made a qualitative leap, and even the Gu family saw this eldest daughter-in-law, and there was a smile between her eyebrows.

Sometimes the Gu family will also be puzzled, He and Lin Baosheng are both honest, the eldest daughter is ingenious, I heard that the second sister is not inferior to the eldest sister, the third sister is even more clever, in this area can be regarded as a role model for the rest of the girls, I heard that when I was studying, I often ranked among the best, after the death of my father, I supported a family, and the business was done well, many neighbors in the neighborhood went to the Lin family shop to buy candied fruits, and they all felt that she was kind, three daughters and three people, each of them was good, and I don't know how He was born and taught.

Since Lin Biyun married into the Wu family, there are also women who have friends with her family who have come to inquire about the little daughter of the Lin family, thinking of being a protégé for her son. Don't look at the third sister of the Lin family who has no father, but she is more capable than her useless son.

Gu will think of his youngest son at this time, and when he heard that Brother Ah was going back to Yue's house to pay New Year's greetings, his eyes lit up, and her heart softened, so she mentioned it in passing: "Ah Song, Ah Bai and Brother Nan are classmates, and now our two families have become a family again, Ah Bai should also go to your mother-in-law to pay New Year's greetings." ”

Wu Bai came to the door, and Lin Biluo's eyes lit up.

After the third day of the Lunar New Year, some people began to hang all kinds of lanterns in the market, and they made and hung until the Lantern Festival, and they would be removed after the sixteenth day of the first lunar month.

The Lantern Festival is a big day, not just a few days after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, but from the fourth day of the first lunar month, some people go to the street to watch the lanterns, which lasts until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

The young men and women of the academy and the school met to go to the street at this time, and without the constraints of the husband and the fetters of homework, it was the easiest day of the year.

Lin Biluo had already discussed with Lin Nan to go to the dealer on Mahang Street to investigate, but it was not good to go openly, if Lin Nan was allowed to come forward, in case this happened, the second sister would go out to marry Lin Nan, let the dealer know, and it would not look good after all. Therefore, if you want to find a fresh face, it will not affect Lin Biyue in the future.

Isn't Wu Bai right?

Lin Biluo glanced at Lin Nan, the sister and brother had a tacit understanding for many years, Lin Nan deliberately will, so he befriended in front of He: "Auntie, I have something to say to Ah Bai, since he has finished worshipping the New Year, why don't you borrow me for a while?" ”

Lin Biyun hated him: "Naughty! ”

Wu Song waved his hand: "Let him go, originally he followed, one was to pay New Year's greetings to his mother-in-law, and the other was to look for Brother Nan's stubbornness." ”

Seeing the permission of the adults, Lin Nan pulled Wu Bai down from the table, Lin Biluo sat down for a while, pretended to drink too much tea, complained to her sister and brother-in-law, and also got down from the table and went straight to Lin Nan's house.

Wu Bai was grinding in Lin Nan's room, thinking that he had to find an excuse to call the third sister over, he didn't think about what to say, he just thought that he would be comfortable when he saw her.

Before he could come up with an idea, Lin Biluo pushed the door and entered.

After she came in, she looked into the courtyard and saw no one, so she closed the door lightly and said to Wu Bai: "Ah Bai, I have something to ask you for the New Year." ”

Wu Bai was young and enthusiastic, not only the woman he liked, but also the people who asked for help when he had something, and he was also enthusiastic and enthusiastic, and he didn't ask anything at the moment, so he couldn't wait to shoot the mountain sound of his newly developed manly chest: "The third sister has something to mention, I will definitely do it for you." ”

Lin Biluo smiled, but said to Lin Nan: "Brother, I want to go to Mahang Street, just you and me are still not enough, in case the future...... If you let Ah Bai go with him, he is a face, as long as he doesn't ...... with Zhuang After all, he didn't know that we were here to investigate? ”

Lin Nan thought that it was this reason, so he asked the dealer on Mahang Street to hire his second sister, but the sister and brother were not at ease, and wanted to go to Mahang Street to find out, and wanted to bother Wu Bai to accompany him, so he had the courage to explain.

"Anyway, everyone will be on the street to watch the lights these days, can you tell Aunt Wu to ask Brother Nan to go to see the lights together?"

Lin Biluo even thought of an excuse for Wu Bai.

"Then aren't you going?"

That's what Wu Bo is concerned about.

"Of course Sister wants to go together, she is more careful than you and me, what's so good about it, let's take a look at the second sister first."

Wu Bai secretly said in his heart: The third sister is so bold, she has heard of each other, but she has not heard of Ah Mei looking at Ah Mei for Ah Sister. However, the third sister is now in his heart, there is nothing bad, it is this kind of out-of-the-ordinary thing, in his mind, it is all a shining point.

But Lin Biluo didn't think so, she was mentally older than Wu Bolinnan, and she also knew that although some things could be helped in private, they couldn't be announced in front of others, so she repeatedly told Wu Bai: "You must not teach Aunt Wu to know about this matter, lest she think too much." ”

Wu Bai nodded violently with a silly boy: "I know, I know." After all, he also hopes that Lin Biluo's image in front of the Gu family will always be good.

The three men agreed and dispersed.

On the third day of junior high school, Wu Bai followed his father and brother to the relatives and friends of the family to pay New Year's greetings, and went to Mr. Bao's house with Lin Nan in the second half of the day.

Gu was troubled by his childish behavior, so he had to go. Seeing Wu Bai's uncontrollable appearance, he was secretly suspicious, and turned around to lie to him: "Don't you go to see the lights with the third sister, right?" ”

Wu Bai's face couldn't help but turn red, and he was broken by the old lady, and argued with his neck: "It's Brother Nan, the third sister is just piggybacking, piggybacking!" ”

Gu knew his appearance, and thought that if the two children had friendship in their hearts, if it became a future in the future, the harmony and beauty of life would be better than anything else. It's just that when the neighbors talk about it, the two daughters of the Lin family have returned to the Wu family, and they will think that the men of the Wu family are a good match.

The adults had other plans in their hearts, but poor Wu Bai didn't expect it to be so far-reaching, just happy in front of him. In the evening, he was dressed up in spirit, and he didn't eat a few bites of food, so Lin Biyun and Gu Shi muttered in a low voice: "Auntie, what's wrong with Ah Bai today?" I didn't eat a few bites of rice, what was the fuss? ”

"Ignore him! Didn't I ask Brother Nan to see the light, there will be thorns on my buttocks, where can I still sit still? I'm afraid that it will get dark immediately. ”

Lin Biyun covered her lips and smiled, then ignored it.

Wu Bai heard Ah Niang arrange him like this, so he just sat there silently with a snort, and said for a while: "I'll go to find Brother Nan first, let him eat less, there are many delicious foods in the night market, what is the fun of shopping when you have a full stomach at home?" ”

In fact, he thought, girls have a small appetite and eat little, if Lin Biluo is full for dinner, when he saves up this long amount of money, he originally thought of inviting her to eat delicious food, if she has no appetite, wouldn't she be disappointed?

During the New Year, even Wu Zhutou was much more lenient, just glared at him, and then let him go.

When Wu Bai arrived at Lin's house, the sky had not completely darkened, and the Lin family was also setting up dinner, Wu Bai pulled Lin Nan and muttered: "Are you stupid?" This will be full for a while, don't you go out and eat? ”

Lin Nan was a child, and when he heard this, he immediately went to pull Lin Biluo, and asked He for leave: "Auntie, can I take my third sister shopping with Ah Bai?" ”

How can the He family not allow it, the little girl has basically been busy in the shop for a year, and finally closed the shop for the New Year, so naturally she should be as relaxed as possible. In previous years, it was inconvenient to go out, but this year you can go out casually to play, "You two protect the third sister more, and take her to avoid the ...... when you meet that drunk or reckless" chattered a lot.

Lin Biyue looked at her younger siblings, seeing that they had no intention of taking her out to play, thinking that she would marry after that, it was unknown whether she could get permission from her mother-in-law and husband to go out for a walk, and she couldn't help but be disappointed. But now that she is getting older and older, she also knows that it is important to stabilize her face, and it is not good to say anything in front of Wu Bai, so she can only watch her younger siblings go out happily.

When he got to the street, Lin Biluo smiled and asked Lin Nan again: "Brother, did you just see the second sister's expression?" If we didn't want to inquire about the dealer, we could have taken her. ”

"Who's to say it isn't?" Lin Nan also sighed: "If you accidentally let the person surnamed Zhuang see it, what is the second sister?" Besides, the second sister happened to accompany A-Niang at home, so as not to be lonely. ”

The three of them walked all the way, and when they met the chic lanterns, they stayed for a while, and the outsiders looked at them, and they were really young people who went out shopping together. While walking, they set up the words, and when they arrived at the mouth of the sour jujube alley on Mahang Street mentioned by Mrs. Wei, the three of them stopped, and Wu Bai came forward to inquire.

As soon as the door of the Xiangzi family opened, a middle-aged man in his forties came out, and Wu Bai stepped forward and arched his hand: "Uncle has a good New Year, I will ask you something, can Zhuang Shida's family be in this alley?" ”

"Exactly, the innermost one in the alley. Xiao Langjun asked Zhuang Xiucai, but is there something? ”

Wu Bai is quite like that: "My husband is going to close the school this year, and I heard that there is a Zhuang Xiucai in this alley, who is good at learning and studying in the academy, so he thought of coming to ask about the situation, and he also wanted to go to the academy where he went to school to study, so he came here on purpose." ”

The middle-aged man looked very kind, "Zhuang Xiucai is good at studying, just the one on the right hand side of the innermost, Xiao Langjun can go and knock on the door." But recently, Zhuang Xiucai has been going out to have a banquet with his classmates from time to time, and I don't know if he has gone out today? ”

Wu Bai thanked the middle-aged man, and the three of them walked around the mouth of the sour jujube alley with a lantern, fortunately there were shops opposite the sour jujube alley, and there were two lanterns hanging out quite chic.

The sour jujube alley is a straight alley, you can see it at a glance, about half an hour, the door of the most right-hand house in the alley finally opened, and a young man Langjun came out of it, a little far away, I can't really see the eyebrows, the young man seemed to say something to the yard, about to say goodbye to the widowed mother, and only after a while did he close the courtyard door and walk towards the mouth of the alley.

Seeing this, the three children were busy watching the lanterns, looking up to see the lamps hung out of the shops, there was a little rabbit lantern hanging out of the house is quite cute, the rabbit's eyes seem to be made of two red glass beads, the red and red are very smart.

The young man Lang Jun came out of the alley, and without glancing at the shop, he walked straight towards the direction of Jiuqiaomen Market, and Lin Biluo hurriedly beckoned the two to follow.

Jiuqiaomen Market, fortunately, is more prosperous than Fengqiumen Street, and I am afraid that lanterns have been hung everywhere at this season. Lin Biluo and Wu Bai each secretly touched their purses, one thought that tonight, with this scholar surnamed Zhuang, he was afraid that he would break the bank, but the other thought that he could take this opportunity to invite the third sister to eat something delicious.

Zhuang Shida walked all the way and wandered all the way, according to the speed of his walking, it seemed to be very leisurely, but looking at the direction of his walking, it was not aimless, seeing him all the way non-stop, to the Jiuqiaomen Market, straight to the Huixian Building, buried his head in.

The guy from Huixianlou seemed to be very familiar with him, and greeted him warmly: "Zhuang Langjun is here?" There are already a number of people waiting for you inside. ”

Johnstar only nodded, and went in under the guidance of his fellows.

The three children who followed him immediately scratched their ears and cheeks in a hurry. Looking at this fairy building from the outside, they know that it is not an ordinary place, and I am afraid that the price of vegetables in the building is not something they can afford. Zhuang Shida heard that his family background was not very good, and he was a frequent visitor to Huixian Tower, which was really incomprehensible.

Lin Biluo was scratching her ears and cheeks in a hurry, suddenly looked up, and saw a side face in a half-open window on the second floor, it was none other than the young man Langjun who had saved her in front of the Great Xiangguo Temple, she was immediately overjoyed, pulled Lin Nan and Wu Bai's sleeves, and was about to break in.

The guys in Huixianlou were enthusiastic, and when they saw the three children coming in, they greeted them warmly, but Lin Biluo waved his hand, as if he was a little impatient when he came often: "The people I'm waiting for are above, don't bother you." ”

It coincides with the New Year's Festival, the guests of the fairy building are overflowing, the friends of the teacher are thanked, or those who gather to have fun together, and the guys are busy.

Wu Bai and Lin Nan, who were followed behind Lin Biluo, were secretly anxious, and they couldn't dismantle Lin Biluo's platform in front of the guys in Huixian Tower, so they could only follow her up with fear.

When I arrived on the second floor, there was a lot of laughter in the private room on the left, and some young people laughed and said: "Brother Zhuang, you are late today, not only will you be fined three glasses of wine, but you will also have to make a poem." ”

I heard a deep and slow voice say: "But there is something in my family, I can't help it!" Besides, I can't drink very much, why not drink a glass of alcohol and be punished with three poems? ”

I only heard a woman's coquettish words inside: "Zhuang Langjun is really talented, hurry up and drink this glass of wine?" "The voice is delicate, if it is a man, I am afraid that half of the body will be crispy, I don't think it is a classmate.

How can a woman from a good family be so dissolute.

The private room on the right was very quiet, but Lin Biluo knocked twice, pushed the door open and entered.

Lin Nan and Wu Bai only thought that there was no one in this private room, Lin Biluo was tempting, how did they know that after following her in, they found that there were two young people sitting and standing in the private room, and they suddenly wanted to pull her out in embarrassment.

Sister Lin Nan was so anxious that she didn't even see the faces of the two of them clearly, and she had bent down to apologize to the two of them: "I went to the wrong room, please forgive me!" ”

How do you know that Lin Biluo smiled happily, and saluted herself: "I just looked up downstairs, and I saw Engong's figure, since he was rescued that day, Engong didn't even tell his name and surname, so that the little woman always felt uneasy, and when she saw it today, she came up to say hello to Engong." ”

As she spoke, she craned her ears to the private room next door, smiling and not moving.

Since Lin Biluo broke in, Qin Yu was taken aback, and his eyes already looked at Chu Junyue with a hint of fun.

In the past few months, General Chu Xiao's peach blossom luck has been very vigorous, not only the little lady of the Yicheng County Lord's family has been pestering him alive and dead, but also the little ladies of several official eunuch families are also quite tempted, secretly sending autumn waves, or extending an olive branch, but unfortunately General Chu Xiao is unmoved. Look, even the little lady who was inadvertently saved in front of the mountain gate of Daxiangguo Temple, how old is this, so she rushed up and came up.

Unexpectedly, Chu Junyue didn't seem to see Qin Yu's joking gaze, and his condensed gaze swept around Lin Biluo's face, and saw that she was wearing a red jacket and red dress, and she seemed to have grown a lot taller than the last time they met.

I heard a deep and slow voice say: "But there is something in my family, I can't help it!" Besides, I can't drink very much, why not drink a glass of alcohol and be punished with three poems? ”

I only heard a woman's coquettish words inside: "Zhuang Langjun is really talented, hurry up and drink this glass of wine?" "The voice is delicate, if it is a man, I am afraid that half of the body will be crispy, I don't think it is a classmate.
