The group went to Mrs. Lin's residence and the music hall with their own thoughts, but they saw the decently dressed high-class girls coming and going with all kinds of items, everyone was happy, and the music hall was also full of laughter, so it was not lively.
Wu was a little worried about Tao: "We won't be late, right?" "Mother-in-law is a birthday, full of friends, but as a daughter-in-law, she is not in front of her, but is late, although there is a reason, I am afraid that I will be picked on by others.
Tao has long been ignored, and said indifferently: "No, it's still early, there is still a pressure formation behind." Besides, my sister-in-law came from afar, she is a distinguished guest, I told the old lady, saying that I want to greet you to freshen up and change clothes first, even if it is the last one to come, no one can afford to say! ”
Lin Jinrong explained to Wu in a low voice: "My second aunt may be even later. "The emperor loves the eldest son, and the people love the youngest son, but the most favored person in the Lin family is not the youngest Lin Sanye, but the second Lin who has a sweet and clever mouth, and the second wife of Lin, Luo, is the niece of Mrs. Lin.
Anyway, if there is a bottom, Tao will not be angry, otherwise her mother's family will also be disgraced, and Wu will breathe a sigh of relief.
Qingli, the eldest girl in the old lady's room, greeted her with a smile, and said while saluting everyone: "The old lady is thinking about her uncle's wife, but it happened to arrive." ”
Wu smiled, and was about to answer, when he heard a burst of laughter suddenly erupt in the room, almost as if the roof was about to be overturned, so unhappy. Dow asked Qingli: "Are you all here?" What is it that makes you so happy? It's been a long time since I've seen an old lady so happy. ”
Qingli smiled: "The eldest lady is outside to welcome guests, and the second wife is still delayed, and she hasn't arrived yet." At this time, Mrs. Gu was telling the old lady interesting things about the south, and several wives and girls from the clan and relatives and friends were making fun. ”
The closer I got, the clearer and clearer the voice in the room, and a female voice said in a tone of voice: "You haven't seen it, the water acrobatics in the south are the best to see, people can take the big bunting to haunt the water waves, move a hundred times, but the tail of the flag is not wet at all, hundreds of people jump up together, it is really spectacular......
Hearing this voice, Lin Jinrong's eyelids couldn't help jumping slightly, this was the voice of the Lin family's aunt, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Lu family, Lu Mian's adoptive mother, and her aunt and mother-in-law Lin Yuzhen in her previous life. is still the usual nobody, isn't it the wife of Zhizhou who has followed Lu Jianxin in the south for a few years? Just regard these women in Pingzhou as hillbillies who have never seen the world? The Lin family is going downhill, but there is no one in the clan and among the relatives and friends who are bigger than Lu Jianxin, Lin Yuzhen is providing jokes for others.
Lin Jinrong was thinking about it, when he heard a girl interrupt softly with some Wu local accents: "Mother...... Don't talk about this, aunts and uncles are afraid you're tired of hearing it. ”
There was a burst of flattery in the room: "No, no, it's hard to go out, it's fun to listen to." ”
Mrs. Lin smiled and said, "This little girl, don't arrange your mother, I'm embarrassed to say it." I'm not afraid of the jokes of your loved ones, I haven't seen her for seven or eight years, and I love to hear whatever she says. She loves her daughter, and she is afraid of the jokes of the guests, so she came to play this round, and it is reasonable to say it.
Everyone said: "I haven't seen each other for seven or eight years, and when mother and daughter see each other, there are endless words." "It's kind of exposing the matter.
The girl smiled coquettishly: "Grandmother, if you don't hurt your mother so much, you also hurt your granddaughter." We haven't seen each other in seven or eight years. ”
Lin Jinrong, who walked under the curtain, couldn't help but smile when she heard it, this girl is Lin Yuzhen's only biological daughter, Lu Yun, the third girl of the Lu family, this girl, although she is squeamish, she has always been gentle and clever, in her previous life, she couldn't say how good she was to Lin Jinrong, but she couldn't say that it was bad, and sometimes she would relieve her, so Lin Jinrong didn't hate her.
The little maid opened the curtain, Tao and Wu entered, Lin Jinrong followed, different from the uneasy, nervous and angry when she suddenly saw Lu Lu just now, her steps at this time were extremely steady, her smile was calm, and her eyes swept calmly to the most gorgeously furnished room of the Lin family and the people sitting scattered in the room.
A four-sided couch in the middle, a small red sandalwood bed in front, a large interstitial screen of red sandalwood landscape in the back, a bronze Yi on the mountain stone platform on the left, a few branches of chrysanthemum in the dark as red gold. Scattered around a circle of ruyi pattern six-sided open round piers, occasionally put a few pieces of tea fruit seed cakes on the crane knee tree.
The old lady of the Lin family sat on the couch, leaning on a red sandalwood table, and the dark red pin gold Fulu shouxi pattern large-sleeved shirt lined her red face and full of energy.
Wearing a pink and yellow brocade narrow-sleeved skirt, and also combing her bun, Miss Lu San sat crookedly on the small sandalwood bed, a pair of pink fists unhurriedly pounded on Mrs. Lin's legs, and looked up at Mrs. Lin coquettishly.
And Lin Yuzhen, the most beautiful and favored aunt of the Lin family, sat beside Mrs. Lin with a delicate bead crown, and sipped the Yuezhou porcelain teacup of the previous dynasty with a pair of plain hands, and a pair of jade bracelets with excellent color on the wrist reflected the golden clay hibiscus curly grass pattern collar on the chest, which was rich and brilliant.
As soon as Lin Jinrong retracted his gaze, he saw Lin Yuzhen glance over here, slowly put down the teacup in his hand, raised his body, and greeted Tao: "Third sister-in-law." ”
My sister-in-law didn't deal with it a few years ago, and Tao has always disliked Lin Yuzhen's arrogance and arrogance - you are beautiful, you are beautiful, what are you doing to me, I don't ask you, what are you proud of in front of me? Although she hadn't seen her for many years, she only nodded lightly: "Mrs. Gu came from afar, it's hard." Then he just saluted Mrs. Lin and introduced the Wu family to Mrs. Lin and the other ladies in the house.
After saying auspicious words to the old lady, Lin Jinrong looked at Lin Yuzhen's face that was still familiar and hateful although it was much younger than before, suppressed the churning in his heart, and led Lin Shenzhi with a smile to salute her: "My niece has seen my aunt." ”
Lin Yuzhen treated her much more affectionately than Tao Shi, and reached out to support her sister and brother with a smile, and said kindly while looking at her: "Is it cautious and cautious?" My aunt is away all the year round, and her own flesh and blood are unfamiliar. ”
Lin Jinrong smiled slightly, but did not speak, and was about to slip into the corner with Lin Shenzhi in the air. She knew too well why Lin Yuzhen was so affectionate to her.
Lin Yuzhen was willing to throw away her husband and a group of concubines this time, and brought her children home, firstly, because Lu Lu wanted to return to her hometown to take the exam; The second is that Lu Mian is older, Lin Yuzhen wants to pick a niece to be her daughter-in-law in her mother's house, so as to help her tie up Lu Mian - in the end, it is not her own biological child, and other people's biological parents are watching from the sidelines, so she has to plan carefully. Third, it is also reluctant to marry his biological daughter Lu Yunyuan, and he wants to choose a good family affair in his hometown.
Speaking of which, I have to talk about the matter of the Lu family's room in detail.
Lin Yuzhen should marry Lu Jianxin, the son of the Lu family, because they are childhood sweethearts, and after marrying, the young couple is not only very affectionate, but also respectful of each other. The Lu Lin family has an appointment for generations, the Lin family was still powerful and rich at that time, Lin Yuzhen had a rich dowry, and the two elders of the Lu family treated Lin Yuzhen very politely, Lin Yuzhen's life was really good.
How can the full moon be lost, the water is full and overflowing, her children are not prosperous, even gave birth to a son and a daughter are weak, not yet one year old, the preface teeth have not been lined up and died, and it is easy to give birth to a son, the family is carefully guarded, seeing that the first year is safe, the body is still healthy, and the family is happy. One day, the child was taken to the outer courtyard to play by the beloved son of the old man Lu, and the child was sleepy and slept in the study nearby, but was inexplicably slammed a few gongs in the yard by a half-sized maid at home, and the child was awakened from his sleep, crying endlessly, and even cut off milk and diet, no matter what the Lu and Lin families thought, they still died.
Lin Yuzhen was so shocked that she almost didn't collapse, even if she didn't ask anything from the mouth of the little guy who was beaten to death, she couldn't say why, and she still stubbornly thought that it was someone else who had malicious intentions to harm her biological son, and she cried all day long. During those days, the second and third rooms of the Lu family and their children did not dare to come to her.
Lu Jianxin felt guilty about her because of her son's death, but he didn't mention the matter of taking a concubine. Later, she easily got pregnant again, held countless hopes, and gave birth to a daughter, and her body was broken, and she could never give birth again. Unfilial piety is great, so she reluctantly lifted the girl around her to make a room, hoping to give birth to a son and raise her. The strange thing is that the belly of this room can't bulge, even if Lu Jianxin has accepted several concubines in a row, not to mention a son, even half a daughter has not been born.
couldn't give birth to a child, but the long house couldn't cut off the incense, and after discussion, he decided to pass on. So who is the successor? Fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, so it is natural to come from the other two rooms of the Lu family, at this time the second room of the Lu family already has three sons, and the third room also has two sons. There are many sons in the second room, but I especially want to pass on my son to my brother and sister-in-law, so that I can inherit the family business - Mrs. Lu is good at management, Lu Jianxin is an official outside, there is a lot of oil and water, and Lin Yuzhen's dowry is also so rich, you can imagine how good the treatment of the eldest grandson of the long house will be, what a good thing, what a good opportunity, and the fool will not fight for it.
But even if they are brothers, when it comes to their own vital interests, they have to think deeply. Since it is a person who chooses heirs and pensioners, he must find a caring, reliable, and good character, and he can't be unproductive, otherwise he can't support the door, and no matter how big the family business is, it will be ruined in his hands, so it's not to find an heir or a pensioner, but to find a person who is not happy and guilty.
So Lin Yuzhen and his wife put it together.
