The settlement of both parties is completed.

Lin Jinrong unified the total amount of gold and silver, and told Lychee to send things out to Tao Fengtang early on the second day, and then let Mama Gui wait for her to bathe.

Mama Gui lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes, slumping her shoulders. Lin Jinrong knew the reason, sighed slightly, and took advantage of the fact that there was no one in the house, and concisely told Mama Gui, and then advised: "This matter is very important, Mama will watch the people in the house for me, and no one is allowed to talk more." Otherwise, if you get out, you will not be merciful! In the last sentence, her tone was extremely heavy.

"Rest assured, no one will talk nonsense. But if my wife knew about it, I was afraid she would be very angry. It's not good for the girl to help anyone, but I want to help her. That money, in the final analysis, was not taken from her master. But I really didn't expect that Aunt Huang would believe the girl and take out all the private rooms. "There are not many people in this house, and some of them are faithful, who will chew their tongues? Although Mama Gui disagreed, her heart was full of joy - the girl still regarded her as a reliable person. Look, in the end, such an important matter was not hidden from her, and she was asked to check it, so the spirit came up again.

Lin Jinrong had no choice but to explain to this honest woman: "My father's spare money, he doesn't give it to Aunt Huang, can we pick it out?" If he can't pick it out, he'd rather take it and buy something he likes. My mother's money, she refuses to take it out, and no one can do anything to her, but if she is really remembered, it will be ugly to make noise. She curled her lips, "What Aunt Huang wants, but the fifth brother is stable and rich, and she doesn't dare to think about the rest." When I help her, I help myself. ”

Aunt Huang is willing to be close to herself and mutually beneficial, which means that she is not a short-sighted person. Earlier, he should have really had other thoughts, but since Lin Shenzhi entered the old lady's study, I am afraid that that little bit of thinking will also be extinguished. There is a difference between the descendants and the ancients, the same in ancient and modern times, if Lin Yizhi is a talent who has passed through the heavens and latitudes, he will not say it, but he is such a person, what can he do if the mud can't be on the wall?

Nowadays, no one relies on the money in the public middle school to marry, how much is supplemented, Lin Yi's four cousins before him are all concubines, and it is normal for a mother to take out as much makeup as she wants, and what is not normal is the third room. Compared with the previous four, when Lin Yizhi arrived suddenly there was a lot less, and he couldn't get over his face, so he took it out and held his breath, and if he didn't take it, he would be calculated. Since Lin Yizhi's mother and son can solve the problem at home, why should she stop it? Do you want them to drag down your mother and brother? Not. What's more, how cost-effective is borrowing chickens to lay eggs?

Mama Gui saw that the corners of her lips were full of smiles, although she couldn't understand her words, she also laughed with her at the right time, and rubbed the fragrant bath beans on Lin Jinrong's snow-white and delicate body.

"Mama, don't be busy, I'll bubble first, you go out, wait for me to call you." Lin Jinrong closed his eyes slightly, his body was tightly pressed against the cedar bathtub, and an abnormal blush appeared on his fine white face.

These days, Mama Gui has become accustomed to her hobby of being alone for a while in the bath, so she didn't say anything, put down her things and withdrew.

After the door closed, Lin Jinrong tightly grasped the edge of the cedar bathtub, the hot, fragrant bath water swayed beside her, it should be extremely comfortable, but there seemed to be something in the water that held her heart tightly and refused to relax. There was a hint of cruelty on her face, she closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and shrunk her head, forcing herself to submerge her entire head and face in water.

Warm water squeezed towards her from all directions, and she could feel the warmth in every pore, but her heart was cold, and every inch of skin, every drop of blood, she could feel that coldness.

As if a lifetime had passed, until the water was a little cold, she tilted her head, sat up from the water, turned her back to the sky, breathed heavily, and her hands tightly clutched on the edge of the cedar tub were already white.

Lin Jinrong let go of his hand, wiped a handful of water from his face, and squinted slightly at the hourglass on the table, the silver sand was like a silver thread, flowing down thinly and without hindrance, and the silver sand piled up was a little higher than before. She leaned against the wall of the tub and laughed with relief, and one day, she would no longer be afraid of the things that scared her in her dreams and during the day, such as water, such as people.

A good night's sleep, the autumn wind and autumn rain are just a foil.

At three o'clock, Tao took Lin Shenzhi's hand, and together with Lin Jinyin, he sent Wu away with red eyes. Master Lin was entrusted by Mrs. Lin to replace his own third master Lin San, who could not attend the farewell mission due to injury, and watched the Tao family's carriage disappear into the early morning mist with enthusiasm and friendliness.

Chenzheng, Mrs. Lin finished dressing up and sat down peacefully, waiting for the greetings of her son, daughter-in-law, grandson, and granddaughter. After the youngest Lin Shenzhi finished the salute and was taken by Chunya to Tingtaoju, her old face full of wrinkles slowly turned to her eldest daughter-in-law Zhou, Zhou's eyes shrank, and looked at Tao and Lin Jinyin, who were standing quietly on the side, and Luo who was standing behind Mrs. Lin and sneered slightly. In the end, he sighed and said in a low voice: "Three girls, the old lady has a few words to say to us, you lead your five sisters to retreat together." ”

It's time to settle accounts! Lin Jinyin instinctively sensed the danger, and bowed calmly, but his eyes looked at Tao in horror. But he saw that Tao Shi looked at the green and deep jade hairpin above the old lady's head without squinting, and his expression was extremely calm.

Lin Jinyin sighed invisibly when she heard herself, and was about to kneel down to Mrs. Lin to ask for guilt when she pulled the corner of her skirt, but she heard Tao say, "Three girls, aren't you going yet?" Lin Jinyin turned around and met Dow's bright eyes, and there was an indescribable joy and confidence in Dow's eyes.

What makes Dow have this look? Could it be that her aunt really gave her some good ideas? Lin Jinyin had some doubts, but was dragged out by Lin Wu.

Then there was the long, anxious wait.

On this day, Lin Jinrong was also frightened, spreading out a piece of paper early in the morning, and only writing two and a half words at noon, and then holding the pen in a daze. After a while, I heard that Mrs. Lin left the ladies to speak. After a while, I heard that the third lady had contradicted the old lady and was punished for kneeling. After a while, he said that the third lady fainted before she knelt down, and she was asking the doctor to help her pulse.

Lin Jinrong didn't believe that at such a moment - Wu had just left, he had not yet lifted the ban, Lin Shenzhi had just entered the old lady's study, Lin San's injury was not yet healed, and Tao would deliberately contradict and anger the old lady like this, everything was just a continuation of the day of the birthday banquet. Only Tao would faint and pretend to be sick to avoid the punishment of kneeling, instead of facing him directly, which really impressed her.

The news that came immediately surprised her. Dow helped out the happy pulse! Two months of pregnancy is the most powerful talisman. Lin San has reached this age, but there is only one son, which is too little, who still remembers to settle accounts with the elderly pregnant woman who is marrying Tao, the Ming media, that is, he does not have long eyes, does not have long heart eyes, and is determined to make trouble.

Some people hold their foreheads to celebrate, and some people are so frustrated that they want to scratch the wall. Lin Jinrong had a smile on his face, but he was full of doubts in his heart. How so? In her previous life, Tao didn't have this baby at all, and since she gave birth to Lin Shen, there has been no news of her belly. Not only her, but also the concubines and girls who the third master married later, no one had a bulging belly. For the rest of her life, she only had one sister, one brother-in-law, and one younger brother.

So, will this be a younger brother or a younger sister? The sheep's pen in Lin Jinrong's hand that was full of ink couldn't wait for the master's pen to fall, and finally dripped a drop of ink heavily, and a blurred flower bloomed on the rice paper. Lin Jinrong stared at the smudged flower, frowning slightly, what kind of variables will this bring?

Gong's mother squatted in the shelter under the porch, holding the small stove for boiling tonics, ready to boil a pot of tonic for Tao with her own hands. If you are pregnant at this age, how can you serve carelessly?

The smell of medicine passed through the green cloth curtain and entered the room, and Lin Jinyin looked at Tao who was lying on the bed raising a fetus with sorrow. On the big red silk satin mandarin duck water pillow, is Tao's bright face, she looks up at the top of the tent embroidered with lilies, and the corners of her eyebrows and eyes are full of joy and pride that cannot be concealed.

She felt so relieved today. She didn't provoke the old lady earlier, the old lady took advantage of her serving tea to inexplicably get angry, and then took the opportunity to punish her, in order to suppress her, so that she would not dare to contradict her next time. After she fainted, she was diagnosed with a happy pulse, and Zhou always pretended to be a good person, but Luo ridiculed her for knowing it for a long time, deliberately not saying it, and deliberately kept it as a talisman at this moment. The old lady also scolded her with a blushing face, she didn't know that she had a body, and it was her own fault that there were really three long and two short.

Yes, for them, of course, everything is her fault.

She is the mother of three children, so she naturally knows this kind of thing. Earlier, she didn't mean not to say it, but because Lin Jinrong had just been frightened and sick by the second room at that time, she was extremely angry and depressed, and she didn't pay attention to whether her little day came or not. Knowing it, it was the old lady's birthday, and it was deliberately not said at that time. She wanted to see that after the Wu family left, the old lady came to her to settle accounts aggressively, and then she was deflated, full of anger but couldn't come out.

She's just impulsive and refuses to bend over, she's not stupid. Tao smiled slightly, and winked happily at the eldest daughter: "Ayin, don't be afraid. And so it passed. Didn't you see that your grandmother and second aunt looked at me laughing at that time. ”

Lin Jinyin squeezed out a smile with difficulty. Not afraid, how can she not be afraid? Don't say anything else, just say that my mother is so old, it's really like passing the ghost gate. In case of...... She shuddered, she couldn't imagine the consequences of losing Dow, in this family, Dow was their support.

Tao didn't think about it so much, she gently put her hand on her lower abdomen, and looked forward to it infinitely: "Do you say it's a younger brother, or a younger sister?" I want to have another son, their brothers support each other, and you will be able to stand firm in your husband's house in the future. ”

Lin Jinyin put away the worries in her heart and laughed with her: "The seventh brother hasn't changed his teeth yet, let's ask him when he comes back!" ”

Xia Ye walked in with a smile: "Madam, Mama Gui from the fourth girl's side is here to ask An Daoxi for the fourth girl and you." ”

The two daughters are extremely sensible and filial. Dow's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "Let her in!" ”
