Chapter 70: Reminiscing about the Past
"This ............" The mother and daughter of the Lin family were stunned, they never expected Lin Qingyuan's request to be this.
In fact, Lin Qingyuan's request is also for the smooth progress of the future plan, after all, in this feudal society, high power is the king, otherwise even if you have a talent, a word from others can extinguish your enthusiasm.
"It's not impossible to let you enter the council hall, but the Lin family has always had an unwritten rule that those who can participate in the council hall must be close relatives of the Lin family or people who are kind to the Lin family, otherwise no one can do it." Mrs. Lin looked puzzled.
Lin Qingyuan smiled and said, "It's not a coincidence, the contemptible person just satisfies one of them." ”
Who knew that Lin Qingyuan hadn't finished speaking, Song Qing suddenly covered her mouth and exclaimed: "Brother Lin, could it be that you are the illegitimate son of the master!?" ”
As soon as these words came out, two pairs of angry eyes immediately attracted each other, and the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder for a while.
Holy, stupid girl, do you want to kill me? Lin Qingyuan was so frightened that he hurriedly explained: "No, no, no, don't get me wrong, Madam, miss, I'm talking about the latter rather than the former, how can I be the illegitimate son of the master!" ”
After saying that, he didn't forget to turn around and glared at Song Qing fiercely, Song Qing knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he lowered his head and didn't dare to look directly at Lin Qingyuan.
Immediately, the mother and daughter breathed a sigh of relief, and Mrs. Lin eased up first and continued to ask, "Then you mean that you have been kind to the Lin family?" Mrs. Lin racked her brains and didn't remember when Lin Qingyuan had helped the Lin family.
"The one who is gracious is not me, but it!" Lin Qingyuan said as he took out the emerald jade pendant from his pocket and gave it to the old man to him.
"This is the jade pendant in the West Lake that day!" Lin Wantong remembers very well that when she found the clue to the disappearance a few days ago, she relied on this jade pendant.
"I don't know if Madame can recognize this jade pendant?" Lin Qingyuan said.
Mrs. Lin was a little emotional when she saw Yu Pei, and said a little eagerly: "This, you, how is Old Man Song now?!" ”
Lin Qingyuan nodded: "When I first came here, it was the old man Song who took care of me, and now the old man is in good health, thank you for your concern." ”
Mrs. Lin took the jade pendant, looked at it and said with a longing expression: "How could I not know about this jade pendant, it is the dowry that accompanied me to marry into the Lin family!" ”
"Huh?" This time it was Lin Qingyuan's turn to be stunned, I wiped it, Master Lin was very generous, he actually gave his daughter-in-law's baby to others like that, it seems that he is not afraid of his wife at all. But if you think about it, in the feudal system, the idea of male superiority and female inferiority is already deep-rooted.
"Back then, when my lord and I went out to sea to negotiate with the salt merchants, we came back in a storm at sea, and then our ship began to flood, and my lord and I thought we were dying. At this critical moment, a small wooden boat in the distance brought us hope, and it was Song Lao who rescued us with the boat. Afterwards, no matter how we repay Song Lao, we refused, so the old man had no choice but to give the jade pendant to Song Lao, and asked the Tuolin family to repay Song Lao with their lives. ”
Summer comes and goes, winter goes and spring comes, just a few decades like clouds, just like yesterday, Mrs. Lin couldn't help sighing.
It was not only Lin Qingyuan who was surprised, but the eldest lady was also the first time to hear her mother talk about the experience of walking through the ghost gate with her father, and she also sweated for them when the story was urgent.
"Qingyuan, you are now a member of the Lin family's council, I'm sorry that I didn't have time to repay Song Lao's kindness, so I asked you to help the Lin family, and I will try my best to meet your requirements in the future." Mrs. Lin said.
Lin Qingyuan clenched his fists and bowed down and thanked: "Thank you, Madame, for your success." ”
"Qingyuan, we will be a family in the future, don't have to be born, my surname is Zhao, you can call me Aunt Zhao." Mrs. Lin said.
"No, no, the juniors still think it's more suitable to be called Mrs. Lin." Lin Qingyuan refused, calling Aunt Zhao always felt weird.
Mrs. Lin had no choice but to smile and say, "Okay, you can call it whatever you like." ”
"By the way, this girl's name is Song Qing, and she is the granddaughter of Old Man Song." Lin Qingyuan suddenly remembered Song Qinglai and immediately introduced it to his wife.
Mrs. Lin was shocked again, and said in disbelief: "Is this child the granddaughter of Song Lao?" I said that when I saw her for the first time, I felt very kind, it turned out to be Song Lao's baby granddaughter, and she really had a little bit of Song Lao's look. Come on, come here, girl, let me take a good look at it. ”
Song Qing obediently came to Madame's side: "Madam." ”
"Qing'er, I want to accept you as a goddaughter, what do you think?" Mrs. Lin asked hopefully.
Song Qing was overjoyed, nodded vigorously and said, "Qing'er is willing to be Madame's goddaughter." ”
Mrs. Lin laughed and said, "Okay, okay, this next family is all together, Wantong, you call the next person to prepare the meal, and our family will have a reunion dinner in the evening." ”
Lin Wantong was also very happy to have a well-behaved and lovely godsister all of a sudden, and she retired happily, and Song Qing was also in the same mood and followed Lin Wantong to work.
For a while, there were only two people left in the room, Lin Qingyuan and Mrs. Lin, and the air became solidified.
Mrs. Lin broke the tranquility first and said, "Qingyuan, can you tell me about your family background?" I want to know what kind of people can educate children like you, in what way. ”
Lin Qingyuan knew that the difference between himself and the people of this era was easily suspicious, and he always avoided this question, although he tried hard to make himself play the human closest to them.
Long hair, green scarves, boots, speaking Chinese, etc., but in the eyes of others, it will always be so contrived, out of place, and it is probably difficult to break the natural habit for a while.
"Did Madame ask me because she didn't find anything?" Lin Qingyuan said with a smile.
Mrs. Lin rarely looked slightly embarrassed and said, "Yes." You are mysterious, as if you were born out of this world, so that people can't see everything about you and can't find out your life. ”
Lin Qingyuan's eyes suddenly became confused, and the scenes of his previous life floated by like a marquee, his mother's gentleness, his father's urging, and his sister's rudeness.
He said lightly: "That's right, here I am a stranger, without any relatives, friends, lovers, just alone." ”
"However, fortunately, I met Mr. Song, Brother Lei Hu, Song Qing, Xie Bing, Eldest Lady, and Mrs., which made me feel that I had another home, and gave me the motivation to continue to work hard, even if I may never be able to return to my hometown." Lin Qingyuan was sad, and people burst into tears when he heard every sentence, and even his wife was moved by his words.
"Qingyuan, the Lin family will be your home in the future, if anyone bullies you, I, Zhao Min, will be the first to refuse!" Mrs. Lin assured without thinking.
Lin Qingyuan's mouth was crooked, and he clenched his fists and smiled: "Mrs. Xie! ”
Hehe, it turns out that Mrs. Lin's name is Zhao Min, Lin Qingyuan thought about it, but it seems that there is a martial arts novel with this name, so what is the novel?
