Chapter 38: Before leaving

Ding Carpenter has always been cheerful and safe, he is also an understanding person, knowing that Lin Meili asked him to personally go to Li County to send a wheelchair to give himself a long face, which can be regarded as finding a backer for Ding's furniture. So the next morning, he sent the wheelchair he had just made to Li Xianling, who looked at this thing called a wheelchair in surprise, and booked 20 directly. This is so that the carpenter is puzzled, Li Xianling explained with a smile: "Such a good thing, it is made for the benefit of the people, and after it is done, the official plans to give it to some elderly or impaired people in the officialdom." ”

Now I understand that this official's brain is more active than ordinary people, and this is helping Ding Carpenter to do live advertising. And after Li Xianling learned that this was Lin Meimei's heart for his old father, he deepened his affection for this little girl.

Lin Zicong returned to the Lin family from the Boundless School and told his grandfather his plan to go to the capital early to take the exam. Grandfather Lin attaches the most importance to the future of this eldest grandson, so he thought about whether to go to Renyazi Market to buy a little scholar and serve Lin Zicong on the way, but where is his grandmother Lao Fang willing to spend this unjust money. So Lin Zicong said the coping method that he had already thought of: "Grandfather and grandmother, now that I am in such a hurry to buy a scholar, there may not be a suitable one for me, I think it is better to let the eldest sister pretend to be a scholar, and she can also take care of my diet and daily life." As soon as the old Fang clan heard this proposal, he immediately nodded in agreement, which could not only save a lot of silver, but also drive away this dead girl by the way, saving her from hanging around under her nose all day long.

Lin Meili was not disgusted at all when she heard this proposal to pretend to be a scholar, but was very happy. She has not yet walked out of Longfeng Town when she came to this new dynasty, and finally took this opportunity to go to the capital to have a look. However, Luo Zhi pulled Lin Meili to her hut with a worried face and said: "You are a big girl's family, you have to go far away from home, my mother is not at ease, I usually look at Zicong's child is quite reliable, but I didn't expect to hurt you so much this time." ”

After hearing this, Lin Meili hurriedly explained: "Mother, don't misunderstand Brother Lobby, in fact, I went to him a few days ago, saying that I wanted to go to the capital to have a look, but I didn't expect him to have a good way to grasp the character weaknesses of everyone in the family." ”

"You're not young, you're still messing around all day, your mother's belly is getting bigger and bigger, if you have an accident like last time, how can you call your mother." Roche took his daughter's hand with red eyes and said excitedly.

After Lin Meili heard this, she took out the old mountain ginseng sent by Li County's order last time from the wooden box and said: "Mother, I will also worry about you, you are old, it is not easy to give birth, when you give birth, remember to take this old mountain ginseng." ”

Roche thought that he was so old, and he was indeed worried that there would be an accident during his birth, so he did not shirk it, and carefully wrapped it in a handkerchief and accepted it.

"Mother, I'm leaving soon, I will arrange your future life, and I will teach the practice of pear blossom cake to Aunt Wang, and then the business of pear blossom cake will continue to be maintained by her and Longfeng Lou, and Aunt Wang will give you 10 taels of silver every month, this money is enough for you and the child in your belly to live well, you remember not to let other people in the family know that you have this income." Lin Meili told Luo with some sadness, after all, she didn't know how long it would take to come back this time.

Luo thought that his daughter would not forget to arrange all her things even if she went far away, and her tears could no longer be controlled, this child had never left her for a day when she was so old, but she knew in her heart that her current daughter was a person with ideas, and she couldn't hold her back, and the only thing she could do at the moment was to help her make a few well-fitting men's clothes while she was free.

After arranging the affairs of her own mother, Lin Meili went to Second Uncle Wang's house, and after telling Second Aunt Wang her thoughts, Second Aunt Wang nodded excitedly. She always knew that Lin Meili went to Longfeng Tower every three days, and she also helped to deliver it once, and she could earn 3 taels of silver each time, even if she gave Luo 10 taels of silver every month, she could still earn 20 taels of silver, which was a lot of income for the peasant family.

"Beautiful girl, don't worry, Aunt Fang Zi won't tell anyone else about this snack, and your mother and the child in her belly will take care of it from time to time." Second Aunt Wang assured from the bottom of her heart.

"Auntie, what I am most reluctant to do in this pear blossom village is my mother and your family." Lin Meili couldn't help but hug Aunt Wang and cried. She's going to leave here, although she's always wanted to leave, but when the day comes, she'll be a little reluctant.

When Lin Meili returned to Lin's house, she saw Zilong Xiao'er sitting on the trolley box in the yard, and the third uncle Lin Yihe was happily pulling the trolley. Lin Zicong also looked at the side with a look of surprise and said: "Big sister, the design of this box is simply ingenious, you can lift it at will without much effort, and you don't have to worry about wrinkles when you put books or clothes inside." Lin Zicong kept praising in his mouth, and he almost said that you should give me one.

"This is for you!" Lin Meili said with a smile.

"What? This one was given to me? Zilong, come down for me, but don't crush my brother's box! Lin Zicong shouted distressed after learning that this was a suitcase for himself.

I will leave early tomorrow morning, and everyone in the Lin family slept very early this night.

Ding Xiaojiang rushed to the Lin family in his own carriage early in the morning, and the Lin family and Uncle Wang's family also got up to see each other off, and even Lin Yishan, who had a broken foot, was already standing at the door waiting. As soon as Ding Xiaojiang saw Lin Meili walking out, he jumped out of the carriage and took the initiative to help carry his luggage. Lin Zicong learned about Lin Xiaojiang's joining yesterday, and many people on the road took care of each other, and there was no reason to be unwelcome, and looking at this kid's temperament, he was very likable, but he was a little puzzled why there was a carriage behind this carriage.

"Miss Lin!" Hearing only a familiar voice sounded, Lin Meili looked at it, and the two young men who walked down from a horse behind were actually the sons of Li Xianling.

"How did you get here? Are you here to see us off? Lin Meili was a little surprised when she was so big-faced.

Li Weihao said a little embarrassed: "My father learned from Master Ding that you are going to go to the capital with your eldest brother to catch the exam, and I will also end this time, so my father asked our brothers to join you, and we also have a care along the way." ”

When the Lin family heard that these two sons were actually the sons of the county commander's family, they all excitedly came forward to say hello. A mother and daughter in the third room scolded secretly in their hearts: This little slut is not small, and even the son of the county order family has hooked up.
