Chapter 119: Thanksgiving
Lin Qingwan's hard-working refugees were not unaware, Granny Ji took a child to the farm, and when she followed everyone through the Lin family's courtyard, she asked the two children to kneel and kowtow in the direction of the Lin family's courtyard.
He also bent down to thank him, and the others also knelt down one after another when they saw it, bowing and bowing.
They knew that because of the affairs of the Qian family and the Lin family, the people in the city were still a little wary of them, so few people came to hire them.
Even if someone comes, these old and weak women and children can't rob those young people, Lin Jiaguang stares at them and hires them, but he ignores those young people, most of them pity them.
They fled all the way from the Southern Han Dynasty here, and they saw a lot of warmth and indifference, so they were very grateful to the Lin family for their kindness.
This gift is heartfelt.
Chief Steward Zhong nodded secretly, my aunt's hard work was not in vain, as long as they were sincerely grateful, this time would not be a loss.
Mother-in-law Ji started with her two children, and this habit continued, and every day when they came to work in the Lin family's courtyard, they would be grateful to the Lin family's courtyard.
When the matter reached Lin Qingwan's ears, she did not ask anyone to stop it.
She took Lin Yubin and stood on the wall tower and watched, and said softly: "Yubin, this is the reason why my aunt knows that refugees will cause trouble. ”
Lin Yubin tightened the handkerchief in his hand and stared at the children who were walking and shaking with big eyes.
When she was so old, she was still jealous of her father's love for her sister-in-law more.
"Auntie, the patriarch is here." Gu Yu reported in a low voice: "The Shang family also came, saying that the old lady was worried about the eldest lady and wanted to take the eldest lady to take a look." ”
Lin Yubin pursed his lips, with some reluctance on his face.
Since the last time the Shang family's rescue came late, and even the medicinal materials were delivered later than others' homes, Lin Yubin rarely mentioned his grandfather's family anymore.
Lin Qingwan knew that she was sad, after all, after her mother died, she was taken to the Shang family to raise, and Mrs. Shang has always loved her very much.
She really regards Mrs. Shang as her closest relative.
But the two families are in Suzhou, and they have such a relationship, unless they are evil, it is impossible not to intersect.
Lin Qingwan touched Lin Yubin's head and said, "If you really don't want to go, I'll push it, and I'll accompany you to go again in two days." ”
Lin Yubin looked down at her toes, she knew that her aunt was very busy, so she twisted her head and said, "No, I'll go in person." ”
Lin Qingwan smiled, "Then you can't lose your temper, if you fight, I can't protect you." ”
"Auntie," Lin Yubin stomped his foot and asked, "Am I someone who can fight with people?" ”
"There's nothing wrong with being able to fight, the next time someone in the Shang family provokes you, you will beat Mingjie." Lin Qingwan said with a smile: "He is the baby bump of the Shang family, and the Shang family must be distressed if he is beaten." ”
Lin Yubin's face flushed, knowing that her sister-in-law was talking about the last time she was angry with Shang Mingjie, she was also a little embarrassed for a while, and muttered in a low voice: "I will apologize to him." ”
"I know that our family Yubin is the most reasonable," Lin Qingwan took her hand down the wall and said, "People are risking their lives to come to see you." ”
Lin Yubin's face flushed, "Why did you come to see me, obviously you came to see my aunt and the Lin family." ”
Lin Qingwan had an expression of 'everything you said was right', and said, "That's right." ”
Lin Yubin's face turned even redder.
She was also a little worried about Shang Mingjie's injury, so she thought she was going to see him.
Shang Mingjie's injury was almost healed, and he was kneeling in the ancestral hall at this time to reflect.
Whether it was Mrs. Shang and Mrs. Shang, they all loved him, and they were reluctant to punish him too heavily, and the matter had already been settled.
But I don't know why, Shang Mingjie, who used to be able to mix in the past, suddenly recognized the reason for death, the old lady said that he would be punished for kneeling in the ancestral hall, and after he was a little better, he ran to the ancestral hall to punish him for kneeling.
When he knelt for two hours a day, he recited the scriptures to his ancestors for two hours, and he did not listen to the persuasion of his subordinates.
Mrs. Shang can't go back and say that she won't punish him, so the children and grandchildren will not be able to do the same in the future?
Old Mrs. Shang didn't speak, and Mrs. Shang, who had already eaten in front of her, didn't dare to mention it, so Shang Mingjie knelt in the ancestral hall for three days in a row.
Today, Mrs. Shang sent someone to pick up Lin Yubin, and said to Shang Mingjie: "Your cousin is going to come to the house as a guest, so I won't punish you, go and clean up, and go outside the house to pick up your cousin in a while." ”
Shang Mingjie was stunned for a moment, then lowered his eyes and said, "Then I'll go and tell my ancestors for a crime." ”
But he stayed inside for an hour, and it wasn't until he came to see Lin Yubin enter the street that he rubbed his knees and got up.
Xi Yan held him distressedly, "The second master is really, the old lady said that you don't have to kneel today, isn't it you who has a headache in the end?" Even the old lady and the second wife were distressed when they saw it. ”
Shang Mingjie glanced at him and said, "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and pick up your cousin." ”
With that, he pressed half of his body weight on him and asked him to pull him to the side door.
Xi Yan said with a bitter face: "Why is it nonsense, it is obviously a good word." ”
"You know what, if you make a mistake, you have to be punished, I'm not a child now, I can't mix it up like I used to." And he also needs to find a place to be quiet and think about something.
The only place in the Manchu that will not be disturbed is the ancestral hall.
Xi Yan pursed his lips, feeling that the second master's mind was becoming more and more difficult to guess, he was punished last two months, and at that time he also quibbled that he was a child, growing his body, and he couldn't overwork.
It's only been a long time since that changed.
Shang Mingjie saw his cousin who was helped out of the carriage, his mouth opened, and finally he lowered his head and said nothing.
Xi Yan looked anxious, and couldn't help but reach out and stab the master, just now he was worried, you are talking when you see someone.
Shang Mingjie let him poke him, and stood aside with his mouth pursed and didn't speak.
Lin Yubin looked him up and down, and when he saw that he was standing unnaturally, he frowned and asked, "Is this a leg injury that is not healed?" ”
"No, it's fine." Shang Mingjie subconsciously stood up straight and replied in a low voice: "This is kneeling." ”
Lin Yubin breathed a sigh of relief, raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile, "Is this being punished by my grandmother?" ”
Shang Mingjie smiled, which was a tacit acquiescence.
Xi Yan couldn't help but say: "Where is the old lady punished, it is the second master who punished himself, I don't know what he thinks, the old lady said that he would not punish him, he went to the ancestral hall to kneel for three days, if it weren't for Miss Biao today, our second master would probably have to kneel for a few days." ”
Shang Mingjie's face changed, and he couldn't help but stretch out his foot and kick him.
The smile on Lin Yubin's face also faded, and he said, "Grandmother has a heart." ”
Shang Mingjie was sweating profusely, and said anxiously: "Don't get me wrong, cousin, my grandmother is really worried about you......"
Lin Yubin lowered her eyes and didn't speak, if she was really worried, why didn't she go to see her, even if it was inconvenient for her to go out, why didn't she even send a grandmother to take a look and ask?
Thinking of what her sister-in-law said, Lin Yubin restrained her expression, raised her smile and said, "I know, let's go, let's go see my grandmother." ”
Shang Mingjie was a little frustrated, turned around and led the way.
Xi Yan vaguely knew that he was in trouble, so he wiped a handful of sweat and followed behind.
"How is my cousin doing?" Shang Mingjie paused and asked, "Aunt Lin is okay, are those wounded okay?" ”
Lin Yubin turned around and smiled at him, "It's all good, now the minor injuries are almost better, and the seriously injured ones are better than minor injuries." Fortunately, it was winter and they could rest. ”
Shang Mingjie breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good." ”
After entering the second gate, the three sisters of Shang Danlan rushed up to surround Lin Yubin, pulling her up and down, "It's okay, but I'm worried about killing us, I heard that there are more than 400 mobs besieging us, aren't you scared?" ”
"We can't get out either, or we'll go to see you."
"I don't know when the academy will reopen, and I don't know what happened to the other classmates, and I haven't even been able to receive letters in the past two days."
Lin Yubin glared, "How can you not receive it, isn't it safe outside?" I also received letters from Lu Ling and Cui Rong yesterday. ”
Shang Danzhu said with a bitter face: "Mother said that it is still very chaotic outside, and even the mother-in-law in our courtyard will not give out the door, and the letter will be handed over to the concierge, but it will never be returned, I don't know if our letter can't get out, or the letter from outside can't come in." ”
Lin Yubin looked at them very sympathetically, no wonder she didn't receive any letters from them after the first two letters, and thought that they had faded with her because of the relationship between the two families.
"Today, the old lady said that she sent someone to pick you up, we thought we would not be able to receive it, after all, it is so chaotic outside, Aunt Lin may not be at ease to let you come out, but when you say this, the outside is calm?"
Lin Yubin smiled, "There was no chaos in the first place, but some mobs were provoked by bad people to besiege our house, and there was no chaos in other places." Even if it is not safe to go outside the city, there is no problem inside the city, after all, there is a history of Zhou Thorn. ”
Shang Danzhu raised his eyebrows and said: "It must be the servants below who are alarmist, so that we can't even get out of the door." ”
Lin Yubin just smiled, if the situation outside can be hidden from the three sisters, can it still be hidden from the maternal grandmother and second aunt?
It's just that they don't want their children to go out, so it's just alarmist.
Lin Yubin followed them to meet the old lady.
Old Mrs. Shang saw Lin Yubin crying again, and asked her and Aunt Lin if they were okay.
Lin Yubin replied softly with a smile on her face, looking the same as before, but the old lady was fine, how could she not see that she had a problem in her heart.
She was a little bitter in her mouth, if it was just that the rescue was late, she could still say that she was kept in the dark, and it was too late to know.
How to mention the matter of sending medicinal materials?
It's already wrong, Yubin's kid is smart, and it's just a joke to quibble at this time.
So although the old lady has a belly to say, she only cares about her physical and mental health, and by the way, she mentions her past feelings.
Looking at her grandmother with white temples, Lin Yubin's heart was also a little sour, and her heart couldn't help but soften, leaning on her with her strength, and comforting her in a low voice: "Grandmother, don't worry, I'm fine, I'm neither injured nor frightened." ”
Feeling her softness, the old lady breathed a sigh of relief, patted her on the back and smiled: "That's good, that's good, I don't ask for much, as long as you are safe and smooth." ”
The estrangement between the grandparents and grandchildren seems to have disappeared, and they have become intimate again.
