Chapter 21: My grandmother is here
This is also right, so Aunt Feng is not in a hurry, she only reminds Lin Lezi that everything must be based on having children, and she said to Lin Lezi seven or eight times in just one afternoon, thinking that she will not be able to bear the joy in the future, Lin Lezi never refutes, but blindly says that she knows.
When the time came, Aunt Feng reluctantly looked at the back of the eldest girl, her eyes turned red again, and she looked at Lin Qiqi on the side, and finally sighed, only then did she tell the eldest girl that it was important to have a son, and she had not been able to give birth to a son for so many years.
Thinking of this, Aunt Feng came to the fighting spirit, a few days ago I heard the old mother in the courtyard say that there is a family that is forty years old and has a big fat boy, and now if she works hard, it should be no problem.
made up his mind, and asked the personal maid to go to Lin Zheng that night, saying that he was not feeling well and attracted Lin Zheng, and the two drank some wine, which naturally came naturally.
After the eldest girl returned to the door, the life of the Lin Mansion returned to normal, and everything was still the same as before, but everyone in Shou'an Hall found that the five girls seemed to have changed a little, and they didn't like to play so much, and most of the time they were reading books by themselves.
At this time, Mama Gao got the letter again, saying that her daughter-in-law was pregnant and wanted her to go back to take care of her, so even if the Lin Mansion was reluctant, she had to send Mama Gao away.
Mrs. Lin remembered the past and made people prepare a lot of thank-you gifts, and An thought that Mama Gao was a well-known upbringing grandmother in Beijing, and how many big families would invite her to teach the rules, so An's also prepared a thank you gift, thinking that she would have to ask Mama Gao to say a few kind words in the future.
And Lin Zheng thought that he couldn't leave a bad impression on Mama Gao, so he prepared a generous gift, and this thank you gift was filled with a full car, Mama Gao didn't want to accept it, but thinking that if she didn't accept it, it was inevitable that they would think too much, so they had to accept it.
It's just that as soon as Mama Gao left, the girls of the Lin family were more idle, but the two boys were busy, Yihang is thirteen years old this year, Yiyang is also twelve years old, Lin Zheng intends to let them participate in next year's children's test to test the water first.
So the two boys prepared intensively, Yihang was careful and tight, reading day and night for fear of not being successful, and An's looked at him like this, he was distressed, and ordered Fengzhuxuan not to make noise, on the other hand, Yiyang was full of confidence, or as usual.
It's just that none of this has much to do with Sang Yu, she gradually calmed down, and suddenly remembered Fu Yaoyu who she saw in the yard that day, she cried like that and was seen by a foreign man, and there was no one around, if her grandmother knew about it.
She didn't dare to continue to think about it, every time she thought about it, she always had to bury her face deep in the pillow, as if she didn't have the face to see people, and at this time she always had to take out the handkerchief and rub it twice to finish.
On this day, the snow in the yard had just shown signs of melting, and Sang Yu was called to the front by Mrs. Lin, saying that the Bai family was coming, and asked Sang Yu to go over to say goodbye.
At this moment, Shou'an Hall is very lively, there are three women and a room of mother-in-law and maids, Sang Yu just walked to the door and was noisy by the voice of a woman talking inside, but it has already arrived, and he will not turn around and leave.
Sang Yu had to adjust her mood at the door, leaving a big smile on her face, and then lifted the curtain to enter, as soon as she entered the room, it suddenly quieted down, only to see an old woman stand up, and when she saw Sang Yu, she burst into tears.
"Good boy, you're Sang Yu, right?"
Seeing this, Mrs. Lin hurriedly beckoned Sang Yu over, "This is your grandmother, call someone quickly." ”
Sang Yu turned his head and saw that the man should be about the same age as his grandmother, but he looked a little older, but he looked very kind and indescribably kind, and the distraught energy at the door disappeared without a trace.
Just as he was about to salute and say hello, he was hugged into his arms by the man, and cried out heartily, "Sang Yu, my Sang Yu!" ”
The other two people also cried, and for a while, the laughter and laughter suddenly disappeared, and the atmosphere became more and more heavy, Mrs. Lin wiped her eyes with a handkerchief and hurriedly said, "Old sister, don't scare Sang Yu, this child is very timid, and it is right to sit down or talk." ”
Seeing Mrs. Lin like this, the other two also persuaded her, and Mrs. Bai let go of Sang Yu, but she still held Sang Yu's hand tightly and refused to let go, for fear that she would run away.
Mrs. Lin hurriedly introduced the other two to her, and pointed to one of them dressed magnificently, and at first glance it was a woman who was either rich or noble, "This is your aunt." ”
Sang Yu called someone according to the rules, and Mrs. Lin pointed to the person who was a little weak on the side, "This is your second aunt." ”
According to the rules, the two aunts were not good at receiving the gift empty-handed, so they quickly took off a pair of bracelets from under their hands, and the other took off a hosta from his head and gave it to Sang Yu as a meeting gift.
Seeing Mrs. Lin nodding, Sang Yu accepted it, and when she turned around, she saw that Mrs. Bai was still looking at herself with teary eyes, her eyes full of tenderness.
"Now the eldest brother of the Bai family has also been transferred back to Beijing, and the family is finally reunited."
Old Lady Bai knew that this was talking to herself, so she said, "Yes, this is also thanks to Zheng'er, otherwise I am afraid that this return to Beijing will not be so smooth, and when I go back, I will definitely have to prepare a thank you gift." ”
"It's all a family, why bother talking about two families, you went with your eldest brother, and it was six years to go, and now it's easy to come back, we have to come and go often, if you don't come, beware that I take Sangyu to your Baifu to make trouble."
Old Lady Lin's words made everyone laugh, and Old Lady Bai even sighed, "My little sister-in-law! Since I was a child, I have been rude and willful at home, and now I am still a grandmother's human nature, my sister-in-law is still eaten by you? ”
Listening to the conversation between the two, Sang Yu finally understood something, her grandmother and grandmother are concubines, her grandmother has three children, the youngest is her own mother, her grandmother has been absent from Beijing with her eldest uncle over the years, and the second uncle is not an official, no wonder I haven't seen my second uncle come to the door this year.
But listening to the tone of the two, they are very familiar, and I don't think all the relationships between concubines are incompatible!
Sang Yu was thinking about things and was thinking about things, when she heard her grandmother talking to herself, "Girl, you can go with your grandmother to stay with me for a few days!" My grandmother's food, drink, and everything she played, as well as the fresh gadgets she brought back from Jinling, were no worse than yours. ”
Without waiting for Sang Yu to reply, the eldest aunt Zhang hurriedly said, "Mother, my daughter-in-law knows that you want Sang Yu to think about it tightly, but now the family has not been cleaned up, and the slave things are all messy, so I don't have to make Sang Yu uncomfortable, so it is better to wait for the family to be tidied up, and I will accompany you in the past to pick up Sang Yu, what do you say?" ”
This is reasonable, now that the whole family has moved to Beijing together, not to mention anything else, only the slaves are now very mixed, it is better to wait for the harvest to be sorted out and then take Sang Yu.
Mrs. Lin also said, "That is, you just came back, it's winter again, you must not be warm, don't freeze my mulberry elm, the left and right mulberry elm is living here now, and it won't run, what are you afraid of, it will be too late in a few days." ”
In this way, Mrs. Bai had no choice but to nod her head and say yes, everyone had lunch together, and let people carry two boxes in, saying that they were for Sang Yu, and Mrs. Lin knew that she wanted her granddaughter to think ruthlessly, although this gift was a little too much, but it was not good not to accept it, so she had to let people carry it back.
There are still a lot of things to sort out on the side of Baifu, and a few people are not good to stay, so they leave, and before leaving, the old lady Bai took out a jade pendant from her arms, "Good boy, this is the talisman that my grandmother asked for when she was in Jinling, you can take it with you." ”
Sang Yu nodded obediently, and put it on her neck, and when Mrs. Bai saw that she was so obedient, she left with confidence, and returned to Shou'an Hall, only to see two boxes placed there, and Mrs. Lin was beckoning her to pass.
"Since these are for you, you can keep them yourself, but there must always be a specific number for all affairs, and grandmother wants to see how you will arrange these?"
As soon as Sang Yu heard this, he knew that this was to consider himself, so he hurriedly called Yu Xing and Ah Yue in, one took the contents of the box to show him, and the other recorded.
As soon as the box was opened, Sang Yu knew how valuable the contents were, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, he was worthy of being a businessman, he was really rich, and the things in this box were all the dowries of ordinary people's daughters.
Sang Yu picked out a few things and sent them to his father, Fengzhuxuan, Roseyard, and Pear Courtyard, and the brothers and sisters also picked out a few good things and sent them over, and he personally picked out a pair of four treasures of the study room to Mrs. Lin, and the rest were recorded according to the number before people accepted them.
Old Mrs. Lin was happy to see Sang so proper, and she sighed again when she remembered the fifty taels of silver she saw under the box just now, and Sang Yu saw that although she didn't understand why, she didn't dare to ask more, for fear of provoking her grandmother's sadness.
And Mrs. Lin looked at Sang Yu's busy figure and smiled bitterly, the eldest sister-in-law didn't want her daughter to come here as a concubine, but she asked her mother to persuade her, and she came to ask for it in person, and she exchanged the career of the eldest brother of the Bai family.
Finally got Lin Zheng a boost, it can be said that Lin Zheng can have today, and the Bai family also has a role, but he didn't take care of the Bai family's daughter when he was born, not to mention that he died in childbirth, only a single seedling was lost, and it was only after ten years that he got it back.
Presumably, Sister-in-law Bai must be complaining about herself, and she is not at ease with herself, so she will give Sang Yu so much money, just because she is afraid that she will suffer in the house and let her protect herself.
Mrs. Lin remembered the events of the year again, Aunt Bai still had nearly a month to give birth, and she went to the temple to pray for blessings, who knew that she had just left for two days and received the news that Aunt Bai had a difficult birth, although she gave birth to a daughter, but the adult had gone.
And how did Sang Yu lose it, how to think about these two things, but at that time, Lin Zheng was at a critical time for the Ministry of Officials to assess whether he could return to Beijing, and there could be no scandals, so this matter was delayed, and he was busy returning to Beijing afterwards to do some work, and so on, so many years have passed since the matter came and went.
But somehow, Mrs. Lin felt that this matter had nothing to do with the Gem Academy, but because there was no evidence, she had to give up, but she had not been waiting to see Aunt Feng all these years.
