Lin Qingwan lay comfortably on the bed, breathed a long sigh of relief, turned her head to look at the stars outside the window, beckoned and said, "Bai Feng, I remember that I received an incense burner in the house, found it and buried it in fine sand, and I will put incense on my brother in a while." ”

Bai Feng couldn't help but glare, "Big ...... Auntie, why don't you go to the ancestral hall? ”

"If you can't worship anywhere, why do you have to go to the ancestral hall? I felt that he had a better chance of seeing me under the stars. ”

But that incense burner is used to burn incense...... "It's not used to burn incense."

Lin Qingwan said indifferently: "What's the matter, there are a lot of incense burners, and it's not an important thing, you can put sand on me." ”

The incense burner was printed with the pattern of white clouds, which was very ethereal, and she felt that it was a good match for Lin Jiang.

Bai Feng and Bai Mei glanced at each other, and silently went to open the cage to find the small incense burner.

Lin Qingwan's worship is also very simple, she took three incense sticks to the courtyard and lit them, silently read in her heart and then inserted the incense on the incense burner, she looked up at the stars in the sky, and said to Lin Jiang silently: "We are back in Suzhou, you are about to be buried, I don't know if you are good in the sky?" ”

Lin Qingwan stood in the night and looked up at the sky, Bai Mei and Bai Feng stood far away, they both felt that her figure was very lonely and ethereal, they couldn't help but snuggle up to each other, and said in a low voice: "Grandma doesn't want to leave too, right?" ”

"Shut up, don't say anything unlucky."

Lin Qingwan took one last look at the incense burner and said secretly, "I hope you will bless us with all the best." ”

The next day, Lin Qingwan woke up while still in Mao, and Bai Mei, who was keeping vigil, heard the movement and hurriedly came in to serve.

Lin Qingwan pulled her hair casually, waved her hand to Bai Mei, and put on her clothes, "Eldest Lady is awake?" ”

"I didn't hear any movement, and there was no water in the kitchen."

Lin Qingwan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Tell Yingyan to be lighter and let her sleep a little longer." ”

Bai Mei should get down and bow down.

Lin Qingwan lived in the main courtyard, and Lin Yubin was arranged by her in the Qinghui Courtyard next door, which used to be Lin Jiang's residence, because there were few masters in the Lin Mansion, and when her father Lin Zhi was still there, he only had one son in Lin Jiang, so his residence was arranged next to him, and the family seemed closer.

When Lin's mother was pregnant with Sister Wan, Lin Zhi was happy, so he asked people to open up the east wing in the main courtyard and make a big room for her.

Not only the Lin Mansion in Suzhou, but also the Lin Mansion in Yangzhou is also arranged in this way.

It's just that Lin Zhi died of illness without waiting for Sister Wan to be born, and Lin's mother was sad, and after giving birth to Sister Wan, she also lingered on the sickbed, but she died of illness in two years.

Sister Wan lived in the east wing of the main courtyard of Yangzhou Lin Mansion until she was four years old, and she did not move out of the main house until Lin Yubin began to walk and was about to leave the ear room of the main courtyard and had her own yard.

In order to show her identity, Lin Qingwan lived in the main courtyard, originally she wanted Lin Yubin to continue to live in the east wing of the main courtyard, but after thinking about it, the child is already twelve years old, and the older she is, the more she pays attention to privacy, she definitely doesn't like to live with her elders, so she arranged her in the Qinghui courtyard next to her, and it is not far away anyway.

Bai Mei went to Qinghui Courtyard through the small door, and whispered a few words to Yingyan before returning to the main courtyard. Bai Feng has also come over to serve.

"Grandma, Steward Lin and Steward Zhong are waiting outside."

Lin Qingwan smeared balm, patted her face and said, "Let him come in." ”

Lin Qingwan turned out of the outer room, Steward Lin and Steward Zhong were about to kneel down when they saw her, Lin Qingwan raised her hand and said, "No need to do this, just sit and talk." ”

Lin Qingwan saw the couch in the outer room, and only then did she realize that something was wrong.

She rubbed her forehead and asked, "Isn't there a high chair at home?" ”

"Because the old lady and the old man rarely go back to Suzhou, the house here in Suzhou is not prepared." Steward Lin said: "If my aunt and grandmother want to change, they have to ask a craftsman to build it again, or move it from Yangzhou." ”

Lin Qingwan thought for a while and said, "Don't worry, let's talk about it after a while, it's just that the eldest sister has to let people prepare some, don't let her kneel for a long time, it's not good for her health." ”

"Yes, there are a few sets in the warehouse, not only the eldest lady's can be replaced, but the aunt can also be replaced here, but no more will work."

Suzhou is still popular for seating, although there are high chairs, but there are very few.

Lin Qingwan was very satisfied, "Then let's change it first, let people prepare the carriage and horses in a while, and after noon, we will go back to Linjiazhuang and go to see the cemetery with the patriarch." ”

"Do you want to prepare some gifts for the clan?"

"No need," Lin Qingwan said coldly, "Apart from the three sect elders, who else is worthy of my personal visit?" ”

Steward Lin and Steward Zhong glanced at each other, and understood Grandma's attitude towards the Lin family, it seems that they will have to be stronger than before when they go to the people on the Lin Jiazhuang side in the future.

"Auntie, Zhou Tingshi and King Qian, several squires have all handed over posts to ask to meet." Chief Steward Zhong bowed his head and asked, "Do you want to reply?" ”

"Let's put it there for now, and I'll talk about it after the old man is buried, I don't have time to take care of these things now."

After noon, Lin Qingwan took Lin Yubin back to Linjiazhuang, and Lin Yubin leaned next to her and whispered, "Sister-in-law, I have only been back to the clan four times. ”

Lin Qingwan recalled the information Lin Jiang gave her, and comforted her: "I only have one more time than you, and each time I come back, I stay for no more than five days." You treat them like relatives and don't have to be too nervous. ”

Lin Yubin pursed his lips and said, "The relatives of the clan who went to the funeral yesterday ......"

"Don't worry, they won't please you."

At this time, those people were kneeling in front of the ancestral hall, and they had fainted twice since they knelt last night.

But Lin Run and the three sect elders didn't let go, even their family members didn't dare to carry people back, so they could only faint and wake up, wake up and faint.

Lin Run paced in front of the four of them and said in a deep voice, "Do you know it's wrong?" ”

The four of them nodded again and again, and one of them said: "Gorou, we really didn't mean to, we are stupid, but to say that we have sinister intentions and deliberately embarrass the second brother, it won't be enough, but we are also of the same blood." We just didn't think too much about it, when the scorching sun was shining, everyone else instructed the servants to build a grass pavilion to protect from the sun, and we just did the same, but we really didn't think about it that much. ”

The other three nodded again and again, defending: "The refreshments on our table were also sent by others, not brought by us." ”

"Who knew that Sister Wan'er would be so angry, and she would give us a face on the spot, it was nothing......"

"What do you mean it's okay?" Lin Run said angrily: "You are going to the funeral, not to the outing!" The whole people in Suzhou are watching, this is how you picked up my Lin clan's deceased patriarch? ”

Lin Run's eyes lit up red and said, "I think you still don't know what to do, you have to kneel for a longer time." ”

"Goro, the fourth brother really can't kneel anymore, if he kneels again, he will kneel to death, I really know that it's wrong, Qilang doesn't repent, then you let Qilang kneel."

"What do you mean, Fourth Brother," Shichiro glared, "You were the one who thanked you when those refreshments were brought over, why is it my fault now?" ”

Not far away, Lin Qingwan quietly looked at them for a while, turned around and sneered at the three sect elders: "I remember that my father and brother allocated money to the family every year, plus the sacrificial field, the gentleman we invited should not be bad, right?" ”

The sixth uncle smiled awkwardly, thinking that Lin Qingwan wanted to change the topic, so he hurriedly said: "The gentleman who invited him is indeed very talented, because the help provided by the clan is not small, and the children can also study at home with peace of mind." ”

"In that case, why did these fools come out of the clan? Haven't they read a book? ”

The sixth uncle was so embarrassed that he didn't know how to interface, and the eleventh uncle and the eighth uncle also turned their heads in embarrassment.

Lin Qingwan said: "If people are stupid, they should study even more, sixth uncle, eighth uncle, eleventh uncle, you can't stop them from studying because they are stupid." People are stupid and don't read, they will only be more stupid, and if they read books, they may have the possibility of becoming smarter, I think they are not young, don't harm the next generation. ”

These words were so poisonous, the three sect elders were embarrassed, helpless and a little annoyed, but they couldn't refute it, because Shiro and they were really stupid, and they still didn't know how to repent.

Lin Qingwan also had no intention of taking care of the affairs of the clan, so after ordering a sentence, she said: "Sixth uncle, since we have seen the auspicious day, let's go and see the cemetery." ”

The sixth uncle breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly nodded: "Your brother's cemetery was built a few years ago, right next to your parents, and buried with your sister-in-law, but your brother is very upright, and the specifications can be expanded." ”

Lin Qingwan shook her head slightly and said, "No need, my brother doesn't care about these false courtesies, just make an epitaph on the tombstone when the time comes." ”

The four of them turned around and left, and Lin Run, who was still teaching the clansmen inside, only knew that Lin Qingwan had come after a while, and he didn't have the heart to stay any longer, seeing that they couldn't hold on anymore, he waved his hand and asked the four of them to leave in annoyance.

After that, he will be severely punished.

Lin Yubin was being surrounded by people talking, she straightened her little face, and when she saw her sister-in-law coming over, she immediately greeted her, and called out a little aggrieved, "Sister-in-law." ”

Lin Qingwan touched her head and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?" ”

The woman who came behind Lin Yubin smiled and said, "This is Sister Wan, I haven't seen you for a few years, and I've gotten better and better, I heard that you have married into the Xie family?" ”

"Alas, you didn't send a wedding card to your home when you got married, otherwise we would definitely have to add makeup to you, by the way, Sister Wan, how is your mother-in-law doing recently?"
