Chapter 5: Cousin
When I was thinking about how to find an excuse to go out for a walk, my mother Luo knocked on the door and walked in, and said to Lin Meili with slightly red eyes: "Beautiful, just now your grandmother said that because of our accident in the second room these days, the heavy work at home is troublesome to do in the third room, your aunt is not in good health, your grandfather understands the big house, and your grandmother is partial to the third room, and then my mother will go to the mountain with you to pick up some firewood, my mother has no ability, and your father doesn't care about anything, and you are a child, and you have to go out to work when you are sick." ”
It's really sleepy to send pillows, what do you want. Lin Meili returned happily: "Mother, don't worry about me, my body is much better, I've been tired of you these days, I'll go to the mountains alone later, you haven't had a good rest because of my body these days, just stay at home." ”
Luo Zhi stroked the beautiful and rough little hand of the forest, and said with some distress: "That's okay, I can't leave me to cook lunch at home, you must be careful yourself, go early and return early, don't go deep into the mountains." ”
immediately went to find a bamboo basket for Lin Meili to collect firewood. Lin Meili carried the bamboo basket on her back in a new way, and excitedly walked to the place where the original owner used to collect firewood with a vague impression.
Ewha Village, as the name suggests, is a pear blossom all over the mountains. Snow makes skin and jade looks, don't marry Jiaoyan and marry the east wind! While admiring the beautiful scenery, you can admire the natural environment, and you can smell this faint fragrance everywhere in the air. In March, the morning was still a little cool, but it did not affect the blooming of pear blossoms. It's so beautiful, I thought about these two words after thinking about it for a long time, so I thought of it as an outing. The beautiful sister who is intoxicated by the beautiful scenery does not forget her business, and the firewood girl has already picked up most of the baskets of firewood, and she has to go home before lunch. She wouldn't be so stupid as to pick up a whole basket of firewood, otherwise she would have some excuse to come out tomorrow and continue shopping.
Lin Meimei, who was about to walk back, suddenly found that there was a vegetable garden and a small thatched hut in front of her, and the vegetable garden was actually planted with purslane, which is the most common wild vegetable in modern times, why are there still people here who specialize in planting. The greatest effect of purslane is to treat diseases of the large intestine meridian. It can not only detoxify, but also anti-inflammatory, but also dispel heat, purslane into the heart meridian, can clear the heart fire. Entering the lung meridian can dissipate lung heat. "The Yellow Emperor's Neijing" says: All pains, itches and sores belong to the heart. And the lungs dominate the skin. In modern times, my grandmother died of bowel cancer, and at that time, Lin Meili did not lack Baidu's local methods for treating bowel cancer. Of course, purslane also has a major effect, which is to solve skin problems. Lin Meili didn't think much about picking a lot of purslane and putting it in her bamboo basket, thinking that she could cure her skin disease when she went back, and she took it away regardless of whether it was someone else's private property. didn't notice that when she was stealing other people's dishes, someone saw the whole process.
Lin Meili was content to take the spoils and hum a little song on the way home. She didn't notice the two people who were watching her back not far away.
"Young master, why didn't you stop her just now, you finally found a home remedy for the old lady, and you specially planted it here and waited for ......," a little guy said angrily.
"It's okay, is there still a lack of this thing?" The young man in white interrupted the little girl's words. I saw the appearance of this young man in white about 17 or 18 years old, his face was like a crown of jade, elegant and outstanding, and he was really a beautiful son.
Lin Meili returned to the Lin family leisurely, and found that the house was very lively today, and it turned out that her cousin Lin Zicong Xiu Mu had returned. Lin Zicong is a very good person in the memory of the original owner, when he was a child, the original owner clamored to go to the school with his cousin, how could the patriarchal Lin family be willing to spend money to study for his daughter, Lin Zicong looked at the crying cousin and comforted: "Big sister, don't cry, big brother promises to come back to teach you every time you recognize good words in the future." Therefore, some of the words that the original owner knew later were all thanks to the blessing of this cousin, and he got rid of the hat of illiteracy.
said that Lin Zicong was wearing a blue-gray robe, with a handsome face, and although his figure was thin but unusually tall, he was 185 cm in sight. He is not in a hurry or bored, and he always has a faint smile on his face, a proper warm man.
"Big sister, you're back, see my brother brought you sesame sugar shortbread and rock sugar gourd, come and eat."
The happiest time of the month was when this lobby brother came back, and every time he would bring various snacks from the town to the sisters to eat, and he would also talk about some interesting and novel things in the town. It can be said that the only cognition of the previous original owner of this world was through this lobby brother. Nuan's cousin had a reputation as early as last year, and he was the only one in the family who was a promising scholar.
The grandfather of the Lin family was a scholar in a large family when he was young, so he also had a bookish anger on his body, and later gave his deed to his grandfather before the main family was killed, and returned his free body early. My grandfather returned to his hometown of Lihua Village to guard two acres of land and prepare to marry and have children. Lao Fang is the youngest daughter of the butcher in the next village, since she was a child, she has been arrogant since she was a child, and she wants to find a scholar to marry, but the young grandfather of course has not escaped her eyes, crying all day long and begging her butcher father to find a matchmaker to ask for marriage. My grandfather was alone at that time, and he was indeed of the age of marriage, so he didn't think much about it and became a relative.
In ancient times, the imperial examination was the only way for scholars to get ahead, and Lin Zicong was undoubtedly the hope of the entire Lin family. The old Fang clan had the idea of not flowing into the fields of outsiders, and always wanted to marry his daughter's daughter to his eldest grandson, but Grandfather Lin was resolutely opposed, and the old Fang clan had to give up. How could no one find out that the warm man was good, as early as half a year ago, Lin Zicong's teacher engaged his little girl to the student he valued the most. How can everyone in the Lin family be dissatisfied, that is the only master in the whole town, everyone is waiting for Lin Zi to end up in the smart year, get famous as soon as possible, and become his own son.
Lin Meili happily took the rock sugar gourd and ate it in a big gulp, sweet and sour, it was really good. After a while, the three children in the third room also entered the hall and ate snacks. I saw that the old Fang clan was so doted that he was holding her baby little golden grandson, and he was patiently feeding him snacks like never before. Lin Meili looked at this scene and sighed that it was really the same life, this evil patriarchal old social bad habits, and the two cousins were also sitting on the side eating sugar gourds with happy faces.
If life has been so plain and quiet, Lao Fang's family should not scold all day long, this kind of life is also beautiful, isn't it?
Taking advantage of the gap when everyone was eating snacks and chatting, Lin Zicong walked to Lin Meili's side, looked at the weird ponytail-like hairstyle that this big sister was combing in amazement, and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Big sister, I copied books a few days ago, earned some money, and helped you buy a hairpin, girls still have to dress up well, I asked my mother to help you comb your hair well, and then bring this new hairpin, and tomorrow my brother will take you to the town to play." As he spoke, he took out a hairpin and stuffed it to Lin Meimei.
Lin Meili only cared about hearing that she could go to the town, and looked at him with a look of surprise and said, "Really? Can I also go to town to play? Lin Zicong smiled dotingly: "Why not, tomorrow is the annual Flower Dynasty Festival." ”
At this moment, Roche walked in lightly, indicating that lunch was ready. Grandfather nodded and motioned for everyone to go to the meal. The grandfather of the Lin family was a scholar of a large family in his early years, and he grew up with the young master, and the old Fang family is the youngest daughter of the butcher family, so the whole Lin family is different from the people of Lihua Village, they are used to eating three meals, compared with other villagers in Lihua Village, the conditions of the Lin family are still good, and Lin Zicong is the only talent in the village at present.
After lunch, Lin Meimei, who returned to her room, took out the purslane picked in the morning, mashed the fresh purslane and applied it to her face. Looking forward to the acne disappearing soon, even if she is not in a hurry to get married, Sister Lin, who has been stinky since she was a child, can't bear the acne on her face.
