The eighth uncle called the sons and grandchildren of the family to his eyes to tell him about things after he was sick, and only then did he realize that something was wrong.

Before Lin Jiang died, he tried his best to promote the sixth brother as the patriarch, thinking that the sixth brother was old, and when he retired, the children in the family could compete with Lin Run.

Lin Run is a good reader in the clan, but when it comes to other abilities, his son is no worse than Lin Run.

Even Lin Run later became the patriarch, and his grandson was also able to compete with Lin You and Lin Run's son, Lin You didn't say that his own grandfather and father were dead, and he was an orphan, but Lin Run's son, who was also very immature, and it didn't seem to be much better than his grandson at that time.

So as long as he manages it well, he can still compete.

In fact, whether it was the first or second life of the Speculator Calculation, his plan was successful in the end.

Because of this, he has a lot of power in the clan and can completely control Lin Yubin's fate.

However, Lin Qingwan focused on cultivating Lin Xin and Lin You.

Lin You is no longer the orphan who studied diligently in the school and could only rely on exams to get ahead.

His prestige in Suzhou was brushed to the highest by Lin Qingwan, and he became famous among the students, and he was also admitted to the Jinshi, and the grandson of the eighth uncle is still studying in the school......

The gap between the two was widened far away.

And even if there is no Lin You, there is still Lin Xin.

Since the position of the patriarch has been handed over to the side branches, it is natural that all the side branches have a chance, Lin Xin's family has declined to the point of planting land with the eighth uncle, but now he is a general.

And the sudden rise of Lin Chuan and others also made the grandsons of the eighth uncle more and more bleak, originally he wanted to look forward to it in front of the hospital bed, but the grandson came directly and said, "Grandfather, how can the grandson fight for the position of patriarch?" Now there is cousin You in the clan, and there is also cousin Xin, that is, Lin Chuan, several of them have more prestige than their grandchildren. ”

The eighth uncle was stunned, and after thinking about it carefully, he realized that something was wrong.

Not to mention the sixth brother's family, with Lin Run here, the resources are naturally tilted towards his side, but now Eleven is stronger than him.

His grandson said in frustration: "Uncle Eleven's cousin's cousin took Cousin You's place in the spring of last year and went to the Lu family to study. ”

The eighth uncle's face was ugly and said: "Your grades are not worse than Lin You, why did Lin Run give him the quota and not give it to you?" ”

"This is designated by Aunt Jiu, and Uncle Wu can't help it, right?"

It took a while for the eighth uncle to realize who Aunt Nine was, he was angry and said angrily: "She is a personal vendetta of the communiqué!" ”

At this time, even the eighth uncle's son couldn't help but be speechless, he couldn't help but say: "Father, that place was originally won by the ninth sister, and it is not a ...... of the public middle school."

The grandson of the eighth uncle silently bowed his head on the side, listening to the grandfather on the bed spray his father into a fool.

The eighth uncle sprayed people for a while, but he was almost angry, so he asked for a doctor for medicine.

But when he calmed down, he had to admit that their family seemed to be isolated, and the benefits of the clan had not fallen on their house in the past few years.

And what the reason is, he understands with his toes.

Even if he was unwilling, the eighth uncle had to consider putting down his body first and having a good relationship with Lin Qingwan.

So he sent someone to invite Lin Qingwan, but the person hadn't sent it out yet, he just mentioned it, and his son couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "Sister Wan is not in Suzhou, she went to the capital." ”

The eighth uncle was stunned and asked, "It's freezing, what is she doing in the capital?" ”

"How would I know? Anyway, I knew that she was not in Suzhou, so I would have gone to the capital a few days earlier. ”

The eighth uncle pursed his lips, thinking that he would wait a while, Lin Qingwan would always come back during the New Year, right?

But Lin Qingwan didn't come back during the Chinese New Year, and no one knew what she had done, he went to ask Lin Run, and Lin Run didn't know.

When he received the news again, it was already spring, and Lin Chuan got a road guide and was calling for his cousins to form a caravan to go to Youzhou.

Only then did the entire Lin family know that their aunt and grandmother had gone to Youzhou, and signed a peace treaty with the Khan of Liao on behalf of Daliang to set up a mutual market on the border between the two countries.

The road guide is the voucher for the big traders to enter the mutual market!

The eighth uncle was already in very bad health at the time, and even worse after hearing about it.

Lin Qingwan only gave two roads to the Lin family, not counting the one in her hand, one was given to Lin Run, and one was given to Lin Chuan.

Eighth uncle, he still didn't have any convenience at all, because Lin Chuan said that he would not take them to play in this room.

And Lin Run, he held the road guide, and planned to jointly manage this road guide by the clan, and set up a caravan by the public middle school, invest money in each house, receive a share according to the money invested, and then receive dividends according to the share.

It means that the eighth uncle's house still can't manage this road guide, because Lin Run prefers the other two clan brothers to manage this caravan.

In this case, the eighth uncle wanted to see Lin Qingwan even more, waiting left and right, his body was getting weaker and weaker, he thought that he would never see Lin Qingwan again, and when he had to leave a suicide letter, Lin Qingwan finally came back.

The eighth uncle began to send people to invite her, and if he couldn't invite her once, he invited her twice, and he knew too well how to use his reputation to blackmail a person.

So before Lin Qingwan came, there were already various voices in the clan, the eighth uncle was going to die, he wanted to see Aunt Lin for the last time, but Aunt Lin didn't seem to be willing to go back to the old mansion......

The only three old men left in the Lin family now, the sixth uncle, the eighth uncle and the eleventh uncle.

They are all very old, no matter what kind of person they are, out of respect for the elders, no one disobeys them anyway, not to mention that the eighth uncle is very serious about reputation outside except for being more radical when targeting Lin Qingwan.

There are a few families who were bullied by him a long time ago, but now that people are old like that, that little grudge is almost gone.

No matter what happened before, now every family has begun to send people to visit him, leaving some things, and some will even take the children away, in their words, now there is less to see each other, or it is better to let the old people recognize more people.

Eighth Uncle: ...... He didn't want to see these people at all.

But this is the path that almost every old man in the clan has to take before he dies, in the past, if someone in the clan is going to die of illness, he will not also send his son and grandson to the other party's house to sit and talk?

The more people who come now, the more it means that he won't live long.

But this rumor was released by him, he is not in good health now, but he doesn't have the rhythm to collapse immediately, can you stop coming to see me?

Lin Qingwan didn't know about the collapse of the eighth uncle, when she first entered the clan, she saw that the eighth uncle's family was very lively.

She paused her hand holding the curtain slightly, turned her head and asked Bai Feng, "Am I late?" ”

Bai Feng leaned over to look at it and whispered, "It's not like that, you see those children still have smiles on their faces, and there is no white cloth hanging in front of the door." ”

Lin Qingwan exhaled regretfully, put down the curtain and said, "In this case, let's go back to the old house first, stop the carriage and we will bring the gifts." ”

Anyway, the distance between the two families is not willing, and she also brought a lot of things back to Uncle Zhong, so it is not good to go directly to the eighth uncle's house.

Uncle Lao Zhong knew the rumors in the clan, and said to Lin Qingwan with a little annoyance: "My aunt shouldn't have come back like this, when it came to him, I thought it was a rumor that worked, and I was afraid that I would be even more fearless in the future." ”

Lin Qingwan smiled, "If you don't come back, you will be criticized, why bother about this, by the way, the sixth uncle and the eleventh uncle are at home?" ”

"Here," Uncle Zhong's face softened a little, and said, "The slave sent someone to invite him early in the morning, and now the two old ladies should be at his house." ”

Lin Qingwan nodded, "That's good, since he wants to rely on the old and sell the old, then I'll find him two who are the same age as him." ”

Lin Qingwan sneered: "Invite the owners of the patriarch's other rooms as well, after all, they are one of the only three old people left in the clan, how can they be so slack?" ”

When it is not her own business, her back does not hurt, but if her own interests are touched, she doesn't believe that they can be so generous.

In the past, she never made a move on the Lin family, firstly, it was unnecessary, and secondly, her prestige was not enough, but now......

Lin Qingwan took a lot of gifts to the eighth uncle's house, and the children who were chasing and fighting at the door stopped one after another, and when they saw that the eldest children all called her aunt and grandmother, they also followed the same salute and shouted, "Hello aunt and grandma." ”

"Aunt Ann ......"

A chubby child, about three years old, followed his brothers to make a move, and almost didn't stand firm, but his eyes kept staring at Lin Qingwan, and he said in a milky voice: "Grandma is so beautiful, more beautiful than grandma......"

Lin Qingwan: "......"

Lin Qingwan looked down at the child, reached out and touched his head and said, "I can't let your grandma hear this." ”

The child smiled innocently.

Lin Qingwan smiled slightly, and then looked up at the door, it was very magnificent, but it was a pity.

Lin Qingwan walked up the steps, and the eighth uncle's son hurriedly led his grandson out to greet him, and when he raised his hand, he found that he didn't know what to call Lin Qingwan.

After hesitating for a moment, he hesitated to call "Ninth Sister".

Lin Qingwan nodded at him and said, "Brother Ten is polite, have all the owners arrived?" ”

The other party was stunned, "The clan brothers were called by the ninth sister?" ”

Lin Qingwan smiled: "Yes, I heard rumors in the clan that the eighth uncle is going to die, I think there are only three old people in the clan, the eighth uncle has something to do, how can we still stay outside?" So I called them back early and came to see Uncle Eight for the last time. ”

Lin Shi's face changed several times, and in the end, he didn't say anything, and turned sideways to invite Lin Qingwan in.

The main courtyard where the eighth uncle lived was lively, and the owners of the Lin family, large and small, gathered here, and were gathered in front of the eighth uncle's hospital bed.

The eighth uncle was a little impatient, I don't know why so many people came here today, many of them have been here.

It's over after watching it once, this is to see that he is addicted to it, and he comes to run every day?

The sixth uncle glanced at the eighth child, and saw that although his face was sickly, it was not as powerful as rumored, and he couldn't help but sigh slightly.

The eleventh uncle sat silently on the side, looking at the old man with a sneer.
