When Mrs. Lin's mother and daughter returned home, Mr. Lin also returned from the academy.

As soon as Mrs. Lin came back, she ordered the meal to be set, and the family was silent when they ate. When the meal was over, Mama Lin took her subordinates to clean up the meal.

Mrs. Lin personally made a pot of tea for Mr. Lin and handed the small teacup to Mr. Lin's hand. For Mr. Lin's affairs, Mrs. Lin is happy to come by herself, Mr. Lin also loves red sleeves and fragrance, and Mr. Lin wants to be proud of Mrs. Lin's knowledge and taste.

Mr. Lin took a sip of tea, the tea had a sweet aftertaste, "Madame, are you going to the mountains to get spring water again?" ”

"Today I went to Jiangxia City, but I didn't have time to fetch the spring water in the mountains for Xianggong, I asked the old man in the family to help get water." Mrs. Lin usually maintains her good health, and since Mr. Lin resigned and came to this Jiangxia city, she lives in Naqingping Village, although she does not have much intersection with the village, but Mr. Lin still slowly sent the original two roommates.

In this way, Mrs. Lin's life is even smoother.

When Mr. Lin heard that it was the spring water brought by the old man in the family, he couldn't go up or down in his mouth with a sip of tea, so he swallowed it one by one. I didn't want to touch that pot of tea again. Suddenly, I felt that this pot of tea was tasteless.

Mrs. Lin was overjoyed to see Mr. Lin behave like this. She rejoiced that her man could not do without his style.

"What did you say when you saw Mrs. Zhou?"

Mrs. Lin glared at Mr. Lin coquettishly, "It's not that I boast about our daughter, naturally everyone is happy to see it, Mrs. Zhou saw the witty words, but she was so happy that she didn't even want to let go of her hand, and she kept holding the witty words before Mrs. Zhou left." As long as the family connived at their own children, is it difficult for the younger generation to be ignorant when they are old? ”

Mrs. Lin felt that this was a sure thing with the Zhou family, so she missed the bright road. Even if Lin Miaoyu can't marry the eldest son of the Zhou family, isn't there still two sons and three sons? Even if the third son is older than Lin Miaoyu, but as the saying goes, the third female college student holds gold bricks, which is also an auspicious thing.

So Mrs. Lin is not in a hurry, after all, it is the man's family who is in a hurry for this kind of thing. Now that things are on the surface, listening to the vague meaning in Mrs. Zhou's words, she will come to the door soon. Isn't that the implication obvious?

Mrs. Zhou and even the Zhou family, that is, there is only such a Zhou Lord who holds the position of county lieutenant, although the Lin family is the big backer behind the Zhou family, now the situation in the capital is undecided, the Lin family is just such a girl, if you can marry the Zhou family, so that you can be next to the big backer behind it, it is of course the best. If there is anything wrong with the big head behind the Zhou family, then the Lin family will only lose a girl.

Besides, when the girl is older, she has to get married after all. Instead of marrying a merchant in Jiangxia City who doesn't know the roots, of course, it is better to marry the son-in-law of the Zhou County Wei family.

Mr. Lin originally had some true love with the Ning family, and he was really happy about Ning Nanxing, and sincerely hoped that Ning Nanxing could become his son-in-law.

But Ning Nanxing didn't look down on Lin Miaoyu, and hooked up with the little village girl, and began to go out of pairs before they were married, as if the two had been treated as a family. Mr. Lin is very unhappy in his heart, even if Ning Nanxin is not a scholar, but the Lin family and the Mu family are considered high-ranking families, even if Ning Nanxing grew up in the countryside, is it possible that he doesn't even know such rules?

After Ning Nanxing rejected Lin Miaoyu several times, Mr. Lin's original enthusiasm for Ning Nanxing had already dissipated. Even if Lin Miaoyu is not big, it is also his daughter, as the saying goes, if you don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, even if you look at his face, Ning Nanxing shouldn't make Lin Miaoyu faceless like this, isn't this just making him faceless!

In the past few days, because Lin Miaoyu has been rejected repeatedly, Mr. Lin's face in the academy is a little unbearable.

So at this time, hearing Mrs. Lin's undisguised disdain for the Ning family, Mr. Lin rarely didn't make much of an expression, because he also thought so in his heart.

Just when Mrs. Lin and Mr. Lin were happily waiting for the Zhou Zhou family to come to propose, and when they were ready to raise their eyebrows when the time came, they heard that Mrs. Zhou came to the academy as a guest and went to another gentleman's house.

The gentleman also had an eldest daughter, but the gentleman of that family was only a lifter, and he was only in charge of the students' accommodation in the academy.

Mr. Lin rushed home angrily, "Didn't you say that Mrs. Zhou was full of praise for the punch line?" Why, Mrs. Zhou went to the courtyard of the Shi family, and she brought the matchmaker! ”

Mrs. Lin was scolded with her head and face scolded, and she couldn't come back to her senses, "Xianggong, what did you say?" What is the yard of the Shi family? Is Mrs. Zhou the wife of County Lieutenant Zhou? ”

"Besides the wife of County Lieutenant Zhou, who else will there be! This has been spread all over the outside, Mrs. Zhou went to the Shi family to propose marriage, and begged the eldest daughter of the Shi family! It's a shame that you came back and swore that the Zhou family would come to propose marriage in a few days! Yes, there is nothing wrong with coming to propose marriage, but it is the Shi family who is going! What's the matter with our family! You've lost all my face! Mr. Lin's face flushed.

As long as he thought of the specious mockery in his tone when other gentlemen told him just now, Mr. Lin couldn't stand, and he became the laughing stock of Yuyin Academy! It is because of this ignorant woman and the daughter of an ignorant woman!

Mrs. Lin was shaken by Mr. Lin's accusation, if it weren't for Mama Lin on the side, Mrs. Lin might have collapsed to the ground. "Impossible, Mrs. Zhou has already said it! Said it would come in a few days! ”

"This person is in the Shi family, will there be any mistakes? Even the matchmaker also came together, and the one who asked to marry was the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhou family! Mr. Lin angrily pointed at Mrs. Lin's face, "My face has been lost, and I am also cautious to help, and I haven't gone outside to talk nonsense, otherwise, my face will be stuck on the ground and let people step on it!" ”

Mama Lin squeezed Mrs. Lin's hand heavily, Mrs. Lin was in pain, and slowly came back to her senses, "Xianggong, don't worry, I'll find a chance to ask Mrs. Zhou when I go back." ”

"Ask, when can you ask! I still believe in your rhetoric, why do you want to deceive me? Didn't you say that Mrs. Zhou pulled Lin Miaoyu and didn't let go? Why, turn your back and go to the Shi family to ask for the eldest daughter-in-law? You don't hate shame, I hate shame! You don't need to say it, you all move back to Qingping Village today! Lose face! ”

Mr. Lin brushed his sleeves away.

Mrs. Lin couldn't hold on any longer, so she hung her whole body on Mama Lin's body, and collapsed half-consciously. Mama Lin vigorously carried the person back to the house, and just put the person on the bed, Lin Miaoyu also followed into the house, "Mother, what's wrong with you?" ”

Mama Lin brought water and fed Mrs. Lin. Two lines of tears slipped from the corners of Mrs. Lin's eyes, "Madam, what the master said is all angry words, don't take it to heart." ”

"Mother, what's wrong with you? Is there something uncomfortable? I'll get you a doctor! ”

Mrs. Lin shook her head and opened her eyes, "I'm fine. ”

Lin Miaoyu threw herself on the side of the bed, her eyes teary, "Mother, it's all your daughter's unfilial piety, which has affected you." ”

Mrs. Lin shook her head weakly, "Mama, you go and clean up, we will go back to the village, and you will stay to take care of the old master and the young master." ”

"This can't be helped, the old man is angry, and if you turn around, it's fine." Mama Lin persuaded her, but Mrs. Lin made up her mind to go back to Qingping Village, and Mama Lin could only wipe her tears to clean up her things.

Lin Miaoyu was crying beside the bed, and Mrs. Lin sighed, "I'm not dead, why are you crying?" ”

"Mother, it's all daughters who are unfilial, and daughters who are willful, which makes people unhappy."

Mrs. Lin patted the back of Lin Miaoyu's hand, "Mrs. Zhou did go to the Shi family?" ”

Lin Miaoyu was stunned for a moment, her crying stopped, and she nodded worriedly, "Mother, people don't look down on me, so they don't look down on me." Don't be angry, your daughter will definitely listen to you in the future. ”

"Okay, you go out, go clean up with Mama Lin, and we'll go to the village in a while."

After waiting for the others to go out, Mrs. Lin suddenly sat up, gritted her teeth and said, "The Zhou family is really too deceitful!" This is to slap me in the face! We'll see. Mrs. Lin also knew that she would eat it, if she made a fuss regardless of it, would Lin Miaoyu still marry? Could it be true that he sent it away casually and married those mud-legged people?

Her daughter, although she is a little stupid, but not everyone can dislike it, she has taught for sixteen years, not to let this family dislike it. Mrs. Lin struggled out of the house, stood at the door, and waved at Mama Lin. "Mom, I still have to bother you, help me go to the gate of the academy and watch a little, this side is sorted out, and I will leave with the witty words."

Mama Lin answered, she knew what Mrs. Lin meant. She knew that Mrs. Lin was unwilling to be put on the table by Mrs. Zhou like this, and this was to find an opportunity to meet Mrs. Zhou and say a word.

Mrs. Lin faintly still expects that the Shi family is talking about the eldest son of the Zhou family, so the Zhou family still has two brothers, it's not that there is no opportunity, isn't it? It's just that Mrs. Lin also knows in her heart that Mr. Shi is just a small person, I heard that there is not even a subordinate in the family, and all the big and small things in the family are done by Mrs. Shi and her eldest daughter. In the door, it is naturally not comparable to their Lin family.

If the Zhou family really chose the daughter of the Shi family as the eldest daughter-in-law, it would be impossible for them to go to the daughter of the Lin family as the second daughter-in-law, and they could not go past the eldest son. After all, in the future, the Zhou family's family will still be supported by the eldest son.

It's just that Mrs. Lin is unwilling to be put on the table, and she doesn't hear Mrs. Zhou say it herself, so she is unwilling, obviously that day is a big talk!

It's only been a few days, and it's all changed!

It's just that Mrs. Lin didn't expect that without Mama Lin going to the gate of the courtyard to wait for someone, Mrs. Zhou would bring a few people over.

Mrs. Lin was secretly relieved when she saw Mrs. Zhou come to the door in person. Busy cheering up and welcoming people into the courtyard, Mrs. Zhou waved her hand, "Actually, there is nothing important, just a few words to talk to Mrs. Lin." ”

Mrs. Lin looked at Mrs. Zhou's face was not good, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. "Mrs. Zhou, please speak."

"I also like the little lady of our family, but I don't know who said in front of my son-in-law, saying that the Lin family still has some plans, and it is not uncommon for my son-in-law to be left and right. However, I thought about whether I fell in love with Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Lin, or if I couldn't become a family, I had to explain it clearly, so as not to have a pimple in my heart. ”

Mrs. Lin's face turned white, "How can you say this?" ”

Mrs. Zhou didn't want to say more, "I don't know about this matter, but my family said it, and I don't want to make a fuss, and I don't want to chill my heart!" Therefore, I just went to settle on the little lady of the Shi family. ”

When Mrs. Zhou went back, Mrs. Lin was still confused, and when she returned to Qingping Village, she couldn't afford to be sick.
