Lin Qingwan turned the teacup and said, "Fifth brother, this is also a road, although it is difficult to walk, but if the children are willing, let them go, it is also an opportunity for our Lin family, isn't it?" ”

Lin Run thought of the Lin clan's heyday when Lin Ying was there, and nervously clenched his fists and said, "It's just that the front line is full of dangers, and our Lin clan is only afraid that we won't be able to take care of them." ”

"Fifth brother, don't worry, I will ask General Su to take care of them."

Lin Run's eyes lit up, "Then please Sister Wan." ”

Lin Qingwan laughed at herself: "It's not certain whether he is willing to join the army or not." ”

She is not very optimistic about Lin Ji, but she can use him to ask for directions, if this road is clear, then the children of the Lin family will have another way out.

It's just that Lin Qingwan didn't expect that Lin Ji hadn't made up his mind yet, but attracted another person.

Lin Xin stood in the courtyard with a spear in his hand, straightening his chest more and more when the people under the old mansion looked over, and looked at the location of the second gate with blazing eyes.

Lin Shun had a headache, stepped forward and bowed down and said, "Young Master Xin, it's cold outside, you better go into the house and wait, my aunt and grandmother are in the back flower room, and it will take a while to come over." ”

Lin Xin shook his head with a straight face and said, "I'm not cold. ”

Lin Shun looked at the patched thin clothes on his body, it was strange that he was not cold.

But he grew up in Linjiazhuang since he was a child, although he was not familiar with Lin Xin, he also knew that this young master was very arrogant and stubborn, since he was unwilling to go in, it was estimated that it would be useless for him to persuade him.

Lin Shun could only stand aside with his hands together.

Lin Xin frowned and said, "You go and get busy, I'll just wait for Jiugu here alone." ”

Lin Shun blinked, and was stunned for a long time before he realized that the "ninth aunt" he said was his own aunt, and he twitched the corner of his mouth.

In the Lin family, girls are not ranked, and only some old people who have nothing to do will calculate it for the children, but no one will really call it that.

Don't you see that the clan is called "aunt" and "sister-in-law", who really takes the old people's private line seriously?

Lin Shun lifted his eyelids and looked at Lin Xin, who was not smiling, and only this honest and rigid young master Xin would execute it one by one.

Is Lin Xin honest and stereotypical?

Of course, this is impossible, if he is honest and rigid, he will not stand here, he just thinks that the old man can listen to it more.

My grandmother had said that they had lived longer than their juniors, had walked more bridges than they had walked, and knew things they didn't know.

The old people stubbornly rank the juniors, which is not harmless, and he is naturally happy to obey.

So he told everyone in the clan to come according to the ranking, even if it was a three-year-old uncle across the street, every time he saw him, he would stop calling "Uncle Twenty-One".

He likes to listen to the stories of his ancestors from his elders, and he learns not only the experience of doing things, but also the way to be a person.

Originally, he thought that his whole life would be like that, farming and harvesting every day, eating three meals a day, planting in spring and harvesting in autumn, but after listening to the stories of his ancestors told by his grandmother and elders, he knew that opportunities would only be reserved for those who were prepared.

So even if he doesn't go to school anymore, he insists on reading and writing every day, and asks for books whenever he has the opportunity, even if he is not afraid of being looked down upon by others.

It's better to learn the skills and wait than to wait for the opportunity to wait and then learn, right?

What's more, he likes to borrow gazetteers and military books, even if the opportunity does not come in a lifetime, he can cultivate his self-cultivation and make himself less ignorant.

Knowledge is an endless treasure, and it can be passed on to future generations.

He also said these things to his friends, but they either didn't understand or didn't listen, they only made fun of him, and later, they simply stopped playing with him.

The people in the clan also began to think that he was a stubborn and rigid person, and Lin Xin occasionally wondered if he was really so rigid.

But his grandmother told him that he was just too smart, that they didn't understand because they weren't smart enough, and that he couldn't blame his brothers for being stupid and not understanding something.

Lin Xin thought that he would live a lifetime in this misunderstanding, but last night he occasionally heard the quarrel between Brother Lin Jia, Brother Lin Ling and Brother Lin Ji, and he finally found a way out.

The children of the Lin family never joined the army, and although the elders did not say it explicitly, he could guess that it was to prevent His Majesty from suspicion.

But now this ban seems to have been lifted by Jiugu.

Due to his lack of talent in the subset scriptures and the poverty of his family, he dropped out of school early and returned home without even learning all the subjects required by the Jinshi.

He had borrowed those books, but he had not studied some of the difficult scriptures thoroughly, and he preferred geographies, arithmetic, and military books to the past.

Originally, he had planned it, and when he was older, if the imperial court opened the arithmetic department, he would try it, and he might be able to pass the exam.

But now he has a better choice.

Lin Xin stood in the courtyard ambitiously, staring at the position of the second gate without blinking.

As soon as Lin Qingwan came out, she met his bright eyes, clear and black eyes can always give people a good impression, Lin Qingwan couldn't help but smile, standing under the corridor and beckoning, "You are the son of the seventh sister-in-law of the back village?" ”

"Yes," Lin Xin stepped forward and bowed and saluted, "Nephew to meet the ninth aunt." ”

Seeing the young man to the end, a smile flashed in Lin Qingwan's eyes, during the period of time when she came out of the flower room to the front yard, she had heard a lot of gossip about him from the people in the old mansion.

Seeing that his eyes were clear, and he was full of energy, not at all as rigid and boring as they said, she became curious, turned around and walked towards the flower hall, and asked as she went, "Is there something wrong with you coming to me?" ”

The young man nodded, "There is a big matter to discuss with Jiu Gu." ”

Lin Qingwan was curious, "Oh, what's the matter?" ”

"Jiugu, I heard that you agreed to join the army?"

Lin Qingwan bowed, "If he wants to go." ”

"Then what you see about me, I want to go too."

Lin Qingwan stopped and turned her head to look at him, Lin Xin stood up and let her look generously, and clenched his fist to show her, "Look, I have learned martial arts." ”

Lin Qingwan looked at his slightly immature face and asked, "How old are you?" ”

Lin Xin said solemnly: "I have reached the age line to join the army, and I am eighteen years old this year." ”

Lin Qingwan looked him up and down, "That's sixteen?" ”

Lin Xin blinked and thought for a moment, but still nodded.

Lin Qingwan smiled, "I'm too young, I haven't married a daughter-in-law yet." ”

Lin Xin lowered his eyes and thought for a while, "Ninth Aunt, I still have a younger brother. ”

Lin Qingwan was silent for a moment before asking, "Why do you want to join the army?" ”

Lin Xin looked at Lin Qingwan quietly for a while, and then asked, "If I say that it is to calm the world, do you believe it?" ”

Lin Qingwan looked back at him, and saw that his eyes seemed to be shining with starlight, and every line was engraved with anticipation, she paused for a while and then bowed her head slightly: "I believe it!" ”

Lin Xin's eyes burst out with a more blazing light, a big smile bloomed on his face, he raised the wooden gun in his hand with a "swish", and said happily: "Jiugu, I'll show you the gun." ”

Without waiting for Lin Qingwan to speak, he jumped back, landed in the courtyard and shot with a "swish", and turned around and played with the gun.
