Lin Yuzhen did not attend the family banquet for Lu Mu that day, and no one asked about her. The less leaning was scattered, Lu Jianli and Tu Shi took a look at the hole, and pulled Lu Lu to inquire about Yilang's situation in detail, Tu Shi scolded Lin Yuzhen: "A ruthless poisonous woman, even if she doesn't hurt you, she was born by her own niece and nephew, how can you think of it!" She deserves it, according to me, the old lady should have punished her well, and let her go lightly, which is really unconvincing. ”

Lu Lu frowned slightly, and interrupted her with words: "How is the sixth brother now?" ”

Lu Jianli hurriedly gave Tu Shi a look, signaling her to stop talking nonsense, Tu Shi was angry in his heart, but he could only say with a smile: "Fortunately, it is better than your third brother to enter the eyes of Mr." ”

Lu Mian was relieved, and said: "I should also encourage him to bear hardships and stand hard work, and study well." ”

Lu Jianli nodded again and again: "Erlang is right, he is right." ”

Lu Mian saw that he was pecking rice, not to mention his father, even his uncle's posture was not at all, he was very sad, and he couldn't find anything to say for a while, so he said: "As long as the sixth brother has a chance, I will rest assured." ”

Lu Jianli and Tu Shi fell silent, and Lu Mian and the two of them came face to face, and there was nothing else to say, so they could only end up embarrassed. On the second day, I got up, went to visit Mrs. Lu early in the morning, and went to Lin Mansion to find Lin Shiquan.

At the end of July, although the weather is getting cooler, it is still very hot at noon. The early-blooming varieties of chrysanthemums in the east courtyard have bloomed, and the grapes in the main courtyard are ripe again, and they are hanging heavily on the branches.

Yi Lang has learned to turn over, easily not to cry, often chattering, and acting very lively, Lin Jinrong loves him very much. As long as the weather was good, as soon as he was idle, he hugged him to bask in the sun in the yard, walked around, pointed out the flowers and insects to him, and talked to him, and Yilang answered her in his way. One big and one small confused exchange, but others looked at it very lively and fun.

Pan said to Mama Sha in a low voice: "Mama, grandma is so patient, it seems that she can understand what the little young master says, and I believe that the little young master can understand what she says, it's really fun." ”

Mama Sha glanced at Lin Jinrong's mother and son with a smile, squinted her eyes and continued to do the needlework in her hands. Dou'er came over to see, she made the upper of the stone blue Wufu longevity, and knew that it was made for Mrs. Lu, because she smiled: "Mama, watch your eyes carefully, so tired, why don't I do it for you?" ”

Mama Sha shook her head: "I'm not in a hurry, I'll do it slowly, as long as I can bring it back before the Chinese New Year." Then he sighed softly, a little lonely in his tone. Her family and acquaintances are all in Ping Chau, and it is too lonely here.

Lin Jinrong heard it clearly, turned around and smiled: "Mama, otherwise, you will go back with me this autumn?" ”

Mama Sha was slightly surprised, she thought that Lu Mian had rushed back, if it weren't for the accident, Lin Jinrong probably wouldn't have taken Yi Lang back alone. Seeing Lin Jinrong like that, it seemed to be a joke, so he also followed Lin Jinrong's meaning and said: "That's good, it's always where grandma goes, the old slave follows wherever she goes." ”

Lin Jinrong smiled, then turned back again, it was time to pack his luggage, and as soon as Lin Shiquan arrived, he would handle all the things that should be dealt with.

"Grandma, there's a guest outside." Lu Liangjia came in with a basket of walnuts that had only faded their green skin, and said with a smile: "This is a gift from the guest." ”

"It's a thing of the past. Who is it? Lin Jinrong rarely goes out recently, except for an occasional trip to the shop, at the invitation of Zhang Shanniang and others, he goes out to drink tea and talk, and basically doesn't go out, and the entertainment is naturally not as much as when Lu Lu was at home.

Lu Liangjia gestured: "It's a little lady in plain clothes, about only a teenager, with a teenage girl and an old mother, sitting in a lone ox carriage." said that the surname is Mei, although the person is plain, but the slave and maid look at the bearing and dress is good. ”

Lin Jinrong was slightly stunned, after all, he came to the door. The surname Mei, a teenage lady, who goes out alone as a guest, who will be there besides Mei Baoqing's Hui Niang? If Mei Baoqing came, she could have deduced that Lu Mu was not there and was gone, but when this little girl came, she couldn't help but see her, so she had to say, "Please let her in." ”

Mei Huiniang walked all the way, looked around coldly, and when she walked into the main courtyard and saw the shelves full of grapes, her eyes changed. There was a bunch of grapes hanging less than an inch above her head, full of white milky mist on them, so that she could touch them with a slight lift of her hand. I wonder how delicious it is? Saliva naturally secreted from her mouth, and the worms in her stomach kept crawling, and she almost stretched out her hand, but retracted it again, trying to straighten her little body, and walked forward in a serious and dignified manner.

Lin Jinrong stood in the courtyard and looked at her and smiled: "Hui Niang, why are you free today?" ”

"Hui Niang greets my aunt." Mei Huiniang showed a faint smile on her face, and Ying Yingfu went down: "I was taken care of by my aunt that day, and I wanted to come to xxx early in the morning, but there was something at home, so I had to delay it until now." I hope my aunt won't think I'm abrupt. ”

Lin Jinrong hurriedly supported her and motioned for her to sit down beside her: "Come and sit." It's good to come and play, and what kind of gift do you bring? ”

Mei Huiniang thanked her and said with a smile: "A little thin gift, I can't take it, but it's rare and new, and it's a rare black walnut, which is very fragrant." So I brought it over to my aunt and xxx to try it. My aunt has always been good, but xxx is still good? ”

She is not at all like the sorrow and stubbornness of Mei Baoqing that day, but she is a sensible little lady, with a maturity and stability that children of the same age do not have. Lin Jinrong looked at her little adult, and remembered that Mei Baoqing said that he was often not at home, and the girl had lost her mother again, so she felt a little pity, so she asked Pan to take Yilang out and show her.

Mei Huiniang looked at Yi Lang intently, and took off a small gold bracelet with a golden bell from her wrist, and wanted to put it on Yi Lang's wrist: "xxx is really blessed, I call him a younger brother, but it is Gao Pan, but since we have already met, I will give him a meeting gift." I have worn it since I was a child, and I am about to lose it, so it is just right for him. ”

Lin Jinrong didn't want it, but when she heard her say the word Gao Pan, she swallowed back the words that had come to her mouth, gave Dou'er a look, and ordered cherries: "Go and cut a few bunches of ripe grapes and wash them and send them." ”

The cherries answered, took the basket and scissors, and happily went to pick the grapes, Mei Huiniang looked up, her eyes full of envy. In the end, it is a little girl, and she is also detained at home, Lin Jinrong said with a smile: "This self-grown grapes are sweeter and cleaner than the ones outside, if Hui Niang doesn't dislike it, how about picking some and bringing them back?" ”

Mei Huiniang's eyes lit up, she looked at Lin Jinrong tentatively, and saw her looking at herself and smiling, her eyes were soft, and she didn't seem to be telling a lie, so she was encouraged and eager to try: "Okay!" Before the words fell, the old lady who followed beside her had already coughed lowly, and Mei Huiniang's eyes suddenly changed, with seven points of resentment and three points of shame.

Lin Jinrong thought that she would not pick grapes, but she suddenly changed her face, looked at the old woman provocatively from the corner of her eyes, and said with a smile: "Thank you aunt for fulfilling me, I was very hungry when I came in early and saw it." As he spoke, he got up and took the scissors handed by Shuangfu, and went to Lin Jinrong coquettishly: "Auntie, teach me, what is ripe?" ”

The old lady's face was pale, and she had a straight face, but she was suffering from Lin Jinrong's face and stepped forward to stop her. Lin Jinrong only didn't see it, smiled and took Mei Huiniang forward, and pointed out the ripe grapes to her. The old lady saw that she had cut more than ten strings in a row and didn't want to stop, so she couldn't help it, and reminded: "Girl! ”

There was already a threat in his tone. Mei Huiniang's eyebrows raised, then she fell silent again, put the scissors stupidly, and said, "Auntie, I cut too much on a whim, you won't blame me for being rude?" ”

Lin Jinrong smiled: "The grapes in my yard have to bear a lot every year, and I am worried that I can't find anyone to eat. ”

Mei Huiniang looked at her once, tilted her head sideways and smiled sincerely. After sitting for about half an hour, the old lady coughed again, and Mei Huiniang stood up reluctantly: "I have been bothering my aunt for too long, I should go back." ”

Lin Jin allowed her, but she just lowered her eyes and refused, and said softly: "Next time I come again, my aunt will be willing to receive me." ”

Lin Jinrong sighed and took a pair of ornaments made of rice beads from Dou'er's hand: "The last time we met was too hasty, I didn't bring you the right thing to make a meeting gift." This is what I made myself in my spare time, although it is not valuable, but it is also a little interesting, Hui Niang should not dislike it. ”

Mei Huiniang raised her eyes to see, the ornament was originally made by Lin Jinrong for Lin Liu'er in his spare time, and the rice beads were thinly strung into a little white rabbit, with delicate colorful tassels, cute and exquisite, just as it was the favorite of girls of her age, she liked it first, and while picking it up, she said: "How embarrassing?" ”

The old grandmother coughed again, Mei Huiniang's eyebrows did not move, and she said with concern: "Grandma is uncomfortable?" ”

The old lady lowered her eyes and said, "Miss Xie is worried, the old slave is very good." ”

Mei Huiniang ignored her anymore, thanked Lin Jinrong seriously, and said with a smile: "Auntie, I'll come to you next time to share tea and play, okay?" A pair of black and white eyes actually carried a bit of pleading.

This child, after losing his mother, is not having a good time. Lin Jinrong couldn't say a word of refusal when he looked into her eyes: "As long as the elders in your family agree, you can come." ”

Mei Huiniang went happily.

Mama Sha said: "It's so strange for this family to let such a young child come alone as a guest. ”

Lin Jinrong took a closer look at the small gold bracelet on Yi Lang's wrist, it was pure gold, fine workmanship, and it was something from the Tang family's gold and silver shop. Mei Huiniang is just a child, of course, she will not inexplicably come to a stranger's house as a guest, which is clearly what Mei Baoqing meant. Mei Baoqing probably planned for him to come forward to have a relationship with Lu Xuan, and here, his ten-year-old daughter was dating her instead of his dead wife, and it looked like he really wanted to make friends.
