Chapter 15: The Fifth Elder of the Lin Family

Today's dinner was extraordinarily rich, and in the afternoon, Wu personally went to buy several catties of meat, and came back and cooked them all in the evening.

At this time, the people in the countryside don't eat very well on weekdays, and they can eat as much meat as they want.

It's rare to have such a happy time, and she doesn't feel distressed about this little thing.

After a busy afternoon, a large table of dishes was prepared, and two tables were set up as at noon, and they sat separately, and the children sat on the small table without drinking.

The old man sat at the main table and said with a smile, "Everyone is almost here today, and I don't know when this child will be home." ”

The Lin family has a total of six children, four sons and two daughters, Wanrong is the youngest girl, and an older sister has been married for several years.

In addition, there is another person who is not married is Lin Changqing, the fifth elder of the Lin family, he has taken the career path, he has been studying since he was a child, and he is also very smart, but he is not lucky, and he can't go up when he gets to the exam.

He has not given up all these years, he is studying with gritted teeth, and his family has not put pressure on him.

That kid has always had an idea, if he doesn't let him study, he will definitely not be at ease, even if he is born and live in the future, he will always think about it.

is also because Lin Changyuan has been earning money outside in the past few years, otherwise the Lin family would not have been able to come up with so much silver for him to study.

Last year, Lin Changqing went to the capital to take the exam and failed again, but this time he didn't come home, he just sent a message home, and followed a classmate to another place.

The classmate is from the south, and he has to go back if he fails in the exam, the south is rich in products, Lin Changqing thought about following him back to see, if he can't study, maybe he can do a small business outside.

After studying for so many years, there has been no way out, and he is afraid that his family will be disappointed in him, and if he stays at home all the time, he will feel uncomfortable.

He was afraid that his family would not agree, so he left directly, this has been gone for more than a year, the place is far away, and no one has brought a letter back, the family has been talking about him, and I don't know what happened outside.

Speaking of Lin Changqing at this time, Wu sighed, "Old Five, this kid, he just has too many ideas, and he can make his own decisions about such a big matter, you wait, see how I clean him up when he comes back, it's not easy to say anything this time." ”

Lin Changfu said with a smile, "Mother, the fifth child is such a big person, is it possible to beat him?" This is not a child, if my mother takes the sole of his shoe and slaps his ass, the people in the village will laugh at him, so don't do it. ”

Wu snorted, "No matter how big it is, it crawls out of my belly, can you still disrespect me, an old lady?" This kid is not sensible, I have to teach me a lesson no matter how old I am, and the same is true for you, if you don't obey, I'll clean up like a child. ”

Lin Changyuan said with a smile, "Mother, the children are still on the side, we are all such old people, don't say that, mother, the children are secretly laughing." ”

Wu looked at the other table, thinking that a few of them were really laughing with their hair down, Wu said, "Okay, okay, I'm happy today, I won't talk about you, come, let's all use chopsticks to eat, it's not early now, are you hungry?" ”

Siqi is indeed hungry, she has no problem with her body now, she can run and jump, and she is too embarrassed to mention it to her grandmother when she is hungry, after all, there is no separation.

And the life of the family is not particularly wealthy, how can you eat whatever you want? It's good to have a full meal for three meals a day.

At this time, she went to the table, she lowered her head and began to eat the dishes on the table, the taste was still good, but Siqi always felt that something was missing when she ate, and she couldn't say it for a while.

Si Yao was next to her, sandwiched a few pieces of meat for her, and said with a smile, "Eat more, this is made by my mother, we may not have eaten the food cooked by my mother for a long time." ”

Zijun said on the side, "That's it, I want to eat the food cooked by my mother, and once I dreamed of it, and when I woke up, I found that I was drooling." ”

These words made the two sisters laugh, and after finishing speaking, Zijun gave Meng Shan and them a few more dishes, "Eldest sister, you and your two sisters also eat, don't just eat vegetables, it's rare to have so much meat today, we are not polite, if you are Sven, there will be no more for a while." ”

Meng Shan smiled, "We're eating." ”

The status of the three of them in the Lin family is not high, although the Wu family is not the kind of old man who is particularly patriarchal, but this rule is in front of him, and there must always be a boy to inherit the lineage.

The eldest daughter-in-law gave birth to three children in a row, all of them were girls, and none of them had a son, which also made her feel a little sad.

So on weekdays, when the Du family spoke badly, the Wu family didn't help the Liu family too much, which caused the three Nengshan sisters to be a little cowardly.

Now that she's older, it's okay, she understands things, and she also knows that the second aunt is too much, and her mother is not wrong, it's just that she didn't give birth to a son.

But because of Wu's attitude, they are also a little unable to raise their heads, and they always feel that they are inferior to Zilong and Zijie.

Today is so lively, the meat and vegetables are set on the table, and they are already greedy, but they don't dare to stretch out their chopsticks to clamp it when they get to the table, for fear that Zilong Zijie will say something bad on this occasion, and then he will embarrass his father and mother.

Sitting on the other side of Siqi was Menghuan, who was younger than her, and Siqi also followed the example of her eldest brother to serve her vegetables, and said with a smile, "Sister eats this, this is delicious." ”

Menghuan was young and a little timid, looking at the meat in the bowl, he actually glanced at Zilong with a weak heart, for fear that he would scold.

Siqi said, "You just eat, watch what others do?" We are the children of the Lin family, we are all the same, no one is more noble, don't think so. ”

This son Long Zijie took care of his mouth, and he didn't have time to deal with them, otherwise they would quarrel at the table again, these two children didn't care about face at all for food, and they dared to make trouble on any occasion.

After eating, tidying up the table, the family sat together and talked, Lin Changyuan and Xuanshi brought the things they brought back to the upper room, everyone in the family had it, it was usually cloth, and a few good medicinal materials were prepared for the second elder, which they couldn't buy in this small place.

Wu smiled and said, "It's not easy for you to make money outside, what are you going to do when you come back to buy these?" ”

Lin Changyuan smiled, "It is appropriate to honor your father and mother." ”

Du Shi said, "Third brother, third brother and sister, since you have decided to come back to live, you have to explain the matter of this money, everyone eats in the public school, and the money you earn is put together, you can't take it back from outside yourself, don't you treat everyone as a family?" You say don't you? ”
