Chapter 42: Lively
Lin Qingwan had already turned around and returned to the carriage, and a faint voice came from inside, "My brother is going to stay in the Fu'an Temple in the city, if you have the heart, go there to pay respects." ”
Then he commanded the carriage to move forward.
The carriage of the Lin family slowly passed in front of these people, and Zhou Tingshi took everyone to silently take two steps back, standing on the side of the road and watching them leave.
And after Lin's convoy left, a teapot and a tray were left on the ground, and it was Lin Qingwan who said that they would treat them to refreshments, which was undoubtedly a resounding slap in the face.
But no one dared to speak.
Everyone silently climbed into their carriage and left.
The road festival is also to be sincere, and there is not much difference from participating in the funeral of the deceased, drinking tea, eating snacks and chatting at other people's funerals......
This is the rhythm of revenge, and it is no wonder that the Lin family is angry.
However, this aunt of the Lin family is not easy to mess with, you must know that there are people with faces in the entire city of Suzhou standing here, well, there are many Lin clansmen and their children, but she left without giving a single corner of her eyes.
The aunt and grandmother of the Lin family are not easy to mess with!
This is the most direct perception of everyone after remorse.
The Lin family's carriage left directly, Shang Mingyuan hesitated for a moment, and then turned his head to see that his cousin had already followed him, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he also beat the horse to follow.
Forget it, anyway, the Shang family only came to pick up their brothers today, and Aunt Lin is not the face of the Shang family, and those people can't be angry with the Shang family.
However, Lin Run paused for a longer time, but the eighth uncle had already directly ordered the coachman with a cold face, "Let's go." ”
The sixth and eleventh uncles also looked condensed, and they didn't even look at the people outside, and when the carriage passed by the relatives who came to pick them up, they were given a slap in the eye.
Lin Run saw that his father and two uncles were like this, so he no longer hesitated and beat his horse to follow.
"Although Haoyu is gone, the Lin family is still the Lin family, and the style and bones that should be there cannot be lost," the sixth uncle reprimanded his son with a calm face, "What were you afraid of just now?" Hesitant, a fifteen-year-old girl is more decisive than you. You are the patriarch of the Lin clan, and you should whip them when you find them setting up a desk for fun. Outsiders are just outsiders, and when their patriarch dies, they put refreshments to receive the funeral, is this mourning or joy? I don't know, I think they have a lot of enmity with Haoyu and Yanzhi. ”
The sixth uncle was very angry, and said angrily: "Outsiders will not feel good because of their pandering, but will think that my Lin family is not in harmony internally, and my moral character is flawed, and I don't know how to laugh in my heart." ”
Lin Run bowed his head guiltily, "Father, I know it's wrong, and when I go back, I will severely punish the person who went to the funeral today." ”
The sixth uncle nodded with a calm face, and sighed half-loudly: "No wonder Erlang dares to hand over the long room to Sister Wan'er, the Lin family will have to rely on her more in the future." ”
The Lin family's convoy did not go home directly, but went to Fu'an Temple first, and then deposited Lin Jiang's coffin, and then gave him incense, and asked the host of Fu'an Temple to return home.
At this time, it was already dusk, and Lin Qingwan invited the three sect elders to say: "It's getting late, the three uncles might as well stay in the city today." ”
The three of them were stunned, and the sixth uncle frowned and asked, "Aren't you going back to Linjiazhuang?" ”
Lin Qingwan shook her head, "Everything is in the house in the city, and my father used to live in the city when he came back, and I am used to it, so in the future, Yubin and I will also live in the city." ”
When it came to Lin Zhi, the sixth uncle and the eleventh uncle instantly lost their opinions, that is, the eighth uncle just pursed his lips and didn't speak.
Lin Qingwan said softly: "Sixth uncle, if there is something in the clan in the future, you can send someone to find me in the mansion, anyway, Linjiazhuang and the Lin Mansion in the city are not far away." ”
How could it be not far away, Lin Zhi didn't like the side branch back then, so he deliberately bought land in the east of the city to build the Lin Mansion, and the Lin Jiazhuang was in the northern suburbs of the city, if it weren't for the lack of good land in the south of the city, Uncle Lin felt that he would definitely build the mansion in the south of the city.
The sixth uncle thought for a while and said, "But it's inconvenient for your aunt and nephew to live alone in the city, what if you are bullied?" Back to Linjiazhuang, there are all relatives on the left and right, and they also take care of each other. ”
Lin Qingwan smiled lightly: "Thank you Sixth Uncle, but the identities of me and Yubin are here, not to mention Suzhou, even if you look at the entire Jiangnan, there are not many who dare to bully us, not to mention Steward Lin." No matter how bad it is, when the time comes, let people call back to the clan, will the uncles and brothers still ignore our aunts and nephews? ”
The sixth uncle and the eleventh uncle glanced at each other, sighed and agreed, and agreed to Lin Qingwan and Lin Yubin to stay in the city, but he also politely declined Lin Qingwan's invitation and returned to Linjiazhuang with Lin Run.
The eighth uncle followed them out, and said coldly when he got into the carriage: "This is a tiger with sharp claws, don't raise it like a cat, but in the end it will eat itself." ”
"Eighth brother," the sixth uncle warned, "Did you say that about your niece?" Don't forget, we're all in the same vein. ”
The eighth uncle sneered: "The clan relatives who came out of the five suits early are not without suspicion, what do you think in your heart?" ”
Uncle Eleventh said coldly on the side: "It's you who have a suspicion, the relationship between the sixth brother and their house and the branch has always been good, and when the third brother was still there, Wulang studied with him." ”
The eighth uncle choked, and the eleventh uncle was satisfied, snorted twice, paced and climbed into the carriage, and lazily instructed his coachman: "Go home, it's only been three or four months since I left home, and the village has been turned upside down, and I have lost face outside the city." ”
The sixth and eighth uncles remembered the farce of today's funeral, their faces suddenly turned blue, and they climbed into their own carriage and went back.
Lin Qingwan watched their carriage go away, and then turned to Brother Shang Mingyuan and said, "You guys should go back quickly, if you are away from home for a few months, your family will definitely miss you." ”
Shang Mingjie said: "Aunt Lin, let's send you back to the house first." ”
Lin Qingwan shook her head slightly and said: "No, this is not far from home, Steward Zhong came back two months early to clean up and arrange, and now you can settle it when you enter the house, why bother you to go again?" You go back and say hello to Mrs. Shang on my behalf, and say that when I am free, I will take Yubin to greet her. ”
The brothers responded, Shang Mingyuan dragged the reluctant Shang Mingjie back, he had been away from home for several months, and he was really a little homesick, well, the daughter-in-law of the family.
"Let's go, let's go home too." Lin Qingwan took Lin Yubin's hand.
Perhaps it was the timidity of the hometown, Lin Yubin was rarely nervous.
Because Lin Jiang didn't go back to Suzhou often, and Lin Zhi didn't love Suzhou, only a few people were left to clean the mansion here, so Lin Yubin didn't live in Lin Mansion when he returned to his hometown, but lived in his grandmother's house.
But she also went back to the Lin Mansion, which was very depressed at that time, and because there was no master, there was no popularity at all.
At this time, when they returned here, they had just entered the street of the Lin Mansion, and the gate was wide open, and the chief steward Zhong led the people to wait in line.
The house has been renovated, the grassy courtyard has been cleaned up, the weeds have been cleared, and various flowers and trees have been replanted.
The bluestone floor under his feet has been sprinkled and cleaned, and the missing and damaged places have already been repaired.
Chief Steward Zhong and Steward Lin led their subordinates to follow them inside, obviously no one dared to speak, but she felt that the originally quiet Lin Mansion was lively.
