Three old men came in the courtyard, and as soon as they arrived in the living room, Old Man Fang shouted, "Old man Lin, where did you rob it?" So much stuff? Hey, don't clean it up yet! I'll see, okay, it's all meat, it's wild boar, just stewed for a few of us to drink. ”

Seeing Lin Lishan greeting them, she looked at her with a smile and said, "Are you happy this time?" Blessed are you, child, and this great blessing is yet to come. ”

Lin Lishan nodded with a smile on her face, "Uncle Fang, you have time to come over today, sit down." Xiaofei is back, right? My son-in-law asked me to bring him some souvenirs. ”

"What, your son-in-law and Xiaofei met? Where are the people? Old Man Jiang asked strangely.

Old Man Fang smiled mysteriously, "You two don't know what Old Man Lin wants us to do here, right?" You'll find out later. Xiaofei also became brothers with Zhou Xiaozheng's son-in-law, how is it? After speaking, he raised his eyebrows proudly.

Old man Cheng looked at them talking and smiled, he is Lao Lin's old partner, the current second-in-command of the Beijing Military Region, he knows the affairs of the Lin family better than anyone else, it is estimated that he came back from the Northeast this time, and the result is gratifying, and he wants to blow it to them. It is also understandable that since the Lin family had an accident with the eldest and son-in-law, seeing that there is no successor, now not only the children have returned, but even the granddaughter has sent a bunch of special products to forgive them, but they are not happy.

Cheng Lixun, the old man of Cheng, was born in a famous family in Jiangnan, and there are many talents in the clan, and now they are also very influential in the political circles, but they pay attention to the golden mean.

Everything is low-key and calm, and the two sons in the family are the dragon among the dragons and the phoenixes among the phoenixes. Now he is a lieutenant colonel at a young age, several grandchildren are capable, the future is bright, and the only daughter is also the son of a friend, and she has a happy life.

The old lady of the Cheng family, Liu Qinglian, is a mystery, and it is rumored that she is the adopted daughter of a large family, and she has no contact with her mother's family. In her early years, she was engaged in confidential affairs, and everyone had scruples about her. When they reached the marriageable age, they formed a partnership with Cheng Lixun, and the couple had a deep relationship. After liberation, he retired early to take care of the juniors at home, and the elderly were gentle and never quarreled with others. In the compound, everyone called her the Living Bodhisattva.

Cheng Lao sat on the chair, holding a teacup, if he had nothing to do, he would often look at the faces of those present, and watch Lao Lin tell about his visit to the Northeast to see his granddaughter this time, and smile.

Looking at the old friend like a child, his face was full of excitement and flushing, and he was secretly happy for him, as an elder, the biggest expectation is that the children and grandchildren below will become talents, and it is a great blessing in life to have such a smart granddaughter.

Listening to Old Man Fang joking on the side, he was even more consciously funny, no wonder Lao Lin went to the military region for a day today, hehe, the Lin family has Zhou Xiaozheng, and now there is a third generation of talents, but it is not a happy expense.

It's just that, alas, he still thinks in a good place, no matter how broad-minded the two children are, this is true, how can they also be related to the Lin family, and it can be regarded as the help of the Lin family. Just like Zhou Xiaozheng, he has never been close to the Lin family, but he always carries the identity of the Lin family.

Less than an hour later, the nanny and aunt served food and wine, and in the living room, the ladies all left and went to Lin Lishan's bedroom to see the fur she brought back, and by the way, listen to the little couple who were talking about her.

Old Man Lin poured the wine happily, thought about it, and ran into the inner room to take out a bottle of tiger bone wine that he had just collected. opened the lid of the iron box, fanned the bottle with his hand, and looked at them proudly, "Fragrant, right?" This is the tiger bone wine that my grandson-in-law begged for me, and this small bottle is very rare, otherwise he would not be able to look down on it. ”

Jiang Lao stopped doing it and patted the table, "Okay, wait until now to take it out, you are planning to drink it secretly." Those who see it have a share, give me a taste. ”

When Old Man Lin heard this, his face was full of remorse, he sighed, and waved his hand, "Forget it, forget it, just taste it, this wine is full of medicinal flavor, but you have to be careful." ”

Suddenly everyone laughed, poured a small wine cup, tasted it, several old men were praised, they were all old, and they didn't dare to drink anymore, there were not only tiger bones, but also several medicinal flavors.

"This wine is not a hundred years old but eighty years old, and it is soaked in at least three precious medicinal herbs. Lao Lin took it well, if you drink it, you won't want to drink it in the future. It is estimated that the old generation of the family heirloom wine. Cheng Lao picked up the iron box and sniffed it, carefully closed the lid and handed it to him.

"Hehe, I knew it was unusual, otherwise Xiao Wu wouldn't have asked her mother to bring it to me just like that. He found the wolf king's fur just now and gave it to me. This child is attentive, and when he sees that I often touch my knees, he knows that I have rheumatism in my legs. I went to the old hunter to snatch it. ”

Jiang Lao looked at it enviously, "You have enjoyed the blessings of your grandchildren in advance, and I don't know what the two sisters Xueli will find in the future." Old man Lin, we are in-laws, so I'll just say it bluntly, when are you going to bring my granddaughter back? Her sister even gave birth to a child, shouldn't they also find a partner? You have to take care of them, don't let them marry so far. ”

"This matter depends on what the second couple thinks, we are both old, and we really can't decide. Why don't I let their sisters come back, and you can find someone to show them? Look, you know that you shake your head, and you also know that these children don't listen to us elders now.

That's why I said that our family Jiaojiao is really not ordinarily good, standing there, full of bookish air, quiet, and atmospheric, smart brain, temperament with her father, everything is low-key, everything likes to hide and hide for fear of people knowing. At the age of three, he will be able to write a thousand characters in three characters, embroidery, and medical skills. I was very respectful and polite to my elders. That's what everyone often says.

No one taught her, she just could learn by herself, she spoke softly to her mother, and acted very magnificently. Lao Jiang, it's not that I dislike my granddaughter, it's really incomparable, I want the children to come back and get along with Jiaojiao more, even if they learn a little Jiaojiao's ability, it is enough for them to benefit for life. But the petite couple never came back, they said that they relied on their own roads to walk steadily. Like Zhou Xiaozheng, he is full of arrogance in his bones. After speaking, Old Man Lin shook his head.

Fang Lao sneered and pointed at him, "You just don't have contentment, it's enough to have an outstanding granddaughter." Do you want your granddaughters to be like her, is it possible? It's not that I'm talking badly, it's that I follow the roots. Zhou Xiaozheng is low-key, right? Zhou Xiaozheng's brain, okay? As soon as Zhou Xiaozheng came out, who would see him would think that this was a peasant boy, and he was completely the mold of the eldest young master of the family. His species, his daughter will be brilliant and nothing surprising. Isn't it said that dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes, phoenixes, and mice can make holes? Besides, your granddaughter, look at Lao Jiang's daughter, your daughter-in-law, can you be low-key? It's crazy when she was a child, the whole big yard is a tomboy, and the girl you let her give birth to is Wen Wenjing? ”

After he finished speaking, Jiang Lao and the old man laughed when they thought about it, it was really impossible.

Old Man Lin said unconvinced: "Who told you that Zhou Xiao was born from a peasant boy?" He is a serious native of Beijing, the Zhou family in Beijing. ”

"Oh, you're raising the bar with me. I'm analogy, let's say, you know, right? You said that Zhou Xiao is from the Zhou family, and I still think he is not biological. I heard Xiaofei say that the Zhou family abused Zhou Xiaozheng's daughter. If it is biological, the second room is so willing to start? ”

Old Man Lin laughed, "You still say that I raise the bar, aren't you?" Don't say it, it may not be biological, Zhou Xiaozheng doesn't look like the old couple at all, some people believe that they are born to my wife, and they really look like my wife if you look closely. Haha, our Jiaojiao looks like her grandmother, but if you look closely, she still looks like her father, is her father also like her grandmother? ”

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention. Cheng Lao's eyebrows jumped when he heard this, and he pretended to be casual and asked, "Wasn't the Zhou family in the capital all destroyed by the devils of the Eight-Nation Alliance?" Anyone else? ”

Old man Lin said casually, "At that time, Zhou Xiaozheng and his father were rescued by the Yi/He/Tuan, so he joined the army, and later joined our team after several turns, and then he was discharged from the army, and returned to his hometown to the northeast of his hometown with his two sons, a daughter and his wife. ”

"No wonder Zhou Xiaozheng later joined the army, this is the son inheriting his father's business. This should be a good father-son relationship. Is this the old man's eccentricity or what's wrong, there is always a saying. Cheng Lao said casually, holding the wine glass tightly in his hand, and looking at Old Man Lin out of the corner of his eyes for fear of missing a word.

"That fool is a fool, he doesn't love his youngest son, he abuses his little granddaughter, and he probably regrets it in his heart. As far as the boss of his family is concerned, he can't compare with Zhou Xiaozheng. Do you say that this old man is stupid, it stands to reason that after fifteen years, he finally gave birth to a boy, so he can't be happy, this old son is good-looking, smart, he is good, and forced Zhou Xiaozheng to escape and become a soldier.

Obviously, my family has something to do, and she loves to think about it in her heart, and he said that she is wooden. I've never seen such a confused fool, and if the Zhou family in the capital had him, it would probably be almost ruined. Fortunately, I returned to my hometown, saving myself from embarrassment and disgrace my ancestors. ”

Cheng Lao was silent for a moment, and said to them: "The living one of the Zhou family is probably the son of the Zhou family, or the son of a house that is not outstanding. You don't know the Zhou family in the capital, we are a little bit on the stage in Jiangnan, and no one who loves literature doesn't know the Zhou family in the capital. The Zhou family in the capital that everyone knows refers to the sons and grandsons of the Zhou family. Before the Da/Qing/Dynasty fell, the Zhou family room and they all withdrew from their careers. I just can't get used to the authorities. The Zhou family is upright and never flattering.

During the Republic/Country/period, Nagafang had two very good sons. The eldest son was so good that someone invited him to come out, but he refused, and there was no one in the literati at that time who did not admire him. The youngest son is said to have never forgotten it, and he became a chapter at the age of three or five, and later came back from studying abroad, but he did not enter the official career. Especially the fiancée of the youngest son of the Zhou family's house, the only one seedling in the Gu family's room, the largest family in our Jiangnan, Lao Lin, your wife knows about it.

Let me first talk about his fiancée is a talented girl, a real talented woman, a real lady, and a scary eldest lady from a family.

What do those people say about the appearance of men and women now? They are a real match. I still remember that year, it was agreed that the two families would get married from where they would go, but then something happened before they got married. First the man died, and then the woman didn't know how, I heard that someone beat her and ran away, and some said that she committed suicide by martyrdom.

Your wife and the Gu family are cousins of the five clans. Your father-in-law's Gu family all said that he was the Jiangnan Gu family, but in fact, he was not a regular branch, but just a partial house.

The fiancée of the youngest son of the Zhou family is the real Gu family's main house, they have no men, and they have no step-by-step, they are dead in this house, there is no news about them, there is no news about the Gu family, there is a big mess in the Gu family, what is the chaos? are all vying for the heritage of the main house.

But in the end, in addition to the real estate, the gold and those valuables were all gone, and everyone was talking about the fact that the eldest lady was not dead, afraid that they would come back, and then those real estate were all sealed up and waited for her to appear to inherit, and when it was liquidated a few years ago, no one appeared, and it was confiscated.

The Zhou family in Beijing is a real scholarly family, except for ancient books and paintings, there is really no family background. No wonder Zhou Xiaozheng and his father would go to the ancestral land. He just wants to go back to the capital, and the old mansion is not his. ”

Elder Fang sighed when he heard this, "It's really a shame, it's estimated that he is no longer in the world." Those years were chaotic. Not to mention a woman. ”

Old Man Lin listened attentively, and after a while, he said faintly: "So it's right to be low-key." Too much limelight is easy to invite trouble. It's a pity. This is a great talent, fortunately, our family is delicate and smart, and knows how to hide it. When Shanshan returns to the Northeast, I have to ask her to remind Jiaojiao that these are bloody lessons. ”

Cheng Lao's heart tightened, and then asked him, "That Jiaojiao is also unforgettable?" ”

Old Man Lin hurriedly shook his head, thought about it again, and said with a smile: "I really don't know, I only know that this child can write a thousand words in three characters at the age of three, and at the age of five, he will recite the prescription handed down by her grandmother Huang family." Before she was ten years old, she hollowed out all her grandmother's unique skills. Even if he had some doubts, he didn't ask, and if he asked, it was in vain, and the child wouldn't say it. ”

"That kid is really good, you hurry up and let her come over and let us see."

"Haha, why do you want the child to be older, and you can't go out for three months, so you can't be in a hurry. I'll tell you, don't beat my granddaughter's idea, she just wants to live in peace. After Old Man Lin finished speaking, he looked at him defensively.

Cheng Lao laughed and said to Jiang Lao and Fang Lao: "Look at him like that, don't beat his granddaughter's idea." I'm married, so I'm not going to be paired with my grandson? What is the little girl pulling to the army? Her mother is in charge of the art troupe, what can she think? The lights out are sounding, I'm leaving, what about you? ”

Old Man Lin saw that they said to leave, and hurriedly called Lin Lishan, "You pack up three copies and send them over first." ”

After speaking, he glared at them, "What's the hurry?" Drink it up. ”

Old Fang smiled and picked up the wine glass and took a sip, Old Man Lin saw that the three of them were going back, and he didn't stay any longer, he personally sent them out, watched them enter his own yard, and waited for Lin Lishan at the door.
