Lin Qingwan is very happy, because Lin Yubin is very happy these days, the three girls of the Shang family are also very happy, and even the old lady Shang is also very happy, well, except for the second Mrs. Shang.

Lin Qingwan walked into the garden and saw four little girls picking flowers while chattering together, and from time to time there was a silver bell-like laughter.

Lin Qingwan stopped and asked with a smile, "Why are you so happy?" ”

Lin Yubin flew over with a flower basket and pestered her, "Auntie, we want to go up the mountain to fetch spring water." ”

"Didn't someone send it?"

Lin Yubin said coquettishly: "But we want to fight by ourselves, we want to dry the flowers to make flower tea, and we need the cold spring on the mountain to match." ”

"If you dry it today, you can't soak it today."

"We also want to make some snacks and we need spring water."

Lin Qingwan nodded her forehead and said: "In the end, I just want to go up the mountain to play, go, go, just be careful, if you fall and get hurt, you can be guilty." ”

Lin Yubin cheered in a low voice, turned his head and winked at his cousins.

Danlan and the three were envious, they could go out with such a entanglement, and they also wanted such an aunt.

"Grandma, you have nothing to do, why don't you follow the eldest lady too," Bai Mei reminded: "Doctor Xu said that you had better move around more in the past two days." ”

Lin Yubin became nervous when he heard this, "Is my aunt sick?" ”

Lin Qingwan saw that her face was white, and hurriedly comforted her: "It's not that I'm sick, it's that I'm too busy these days, and I'm a little irritable, so Dr. Xu asked me to relax and walk around more, if I'm sick, I'm going to take medicine now, do you see that I have a smell of medicine?" ”

Lin Yubin sniffed it carefully, breathed a sigh of relief, and hugged her arm and said, "Then sister-in-law will go up the mountain with us." ”

Lin Qingwan thought for a while and said, "It's okay, since you want to go up the mountain, let's bring a few small back baskets, there are many mushrooms and wild vegetables at this time, maybe we can find them." ”

The girls became excited when they heard this, went back to the house to change their clothes and left.

Five people went up the mountain, followed by a group of subordinates, Lin Qingwan did not let them leave, this mountain is not steep, but if it falls, it will be quite heavy, so it is safer to take the subordinates.

They entered the mountain directly from the corner gate in the backyard, this mountain is rarely involved in the villagers, and it is all the traces left by the people in the house who went up the mountain to fetch water, so there are a lot of wild vegetables on both sides of the path.

Lin Qingwan taught them one by one which were wild vegetables and which were wild weeds.

Several girls were excited, and they also picked a lot of wild flowers to decorate in the small back basket, and Lin Qingwan saw that she simply picked flower branches and braided them into garlands to put on their heads.

The four girls were amazed, "Aunt Lin is so skillful? ”

Lin Qingwan laughed and said, "The easiest thing to learn, you will learn it as soon as you learn it." ”

This was taught by a roommate when she was in college, and at that time they went on outings, collecting materials from everywhere, and they had six girls in their dormitory, all of whom were good at studying.

The five of them walked in with a garland on their heads, Lin Yubin looked at the wild vegetables in the back basket, and asked suspiciously, "Auntie, didn't you say that there are mushrooms, we picked so many wild vegetables and didn't see a single mushroom." ”

Lin Qingwan looked left and right and said: "Where will this be, you have to go deeper into the forest, those with more rotten leaves, there may be dense grass." ”

The four girls were full of interest, and they were not in a hurry to see the cold spring, so under the guidance of Lin Qingwan, they left the path and went to the forest, specially picking up the dense grass to see, and after a while, Danlan exclaimed, and said happily: "There is here, there is here." ”

The girl next to her took the lead in coming up, rolled up her sleeves and was about to take them off, and the family who protected them couldn't help laughing, "Miss Cousin, this is not something that can be eaten." ”

Lin Yubin and Danzhu Danju came up and asked suspiciously: "Since it is a mushroom, why can't you eat it?" ”

Jia Ding scratched his head and said, "You can't eat it anyway." ”

Lin Qingwan stepped forward to look at the pale red mushroom and said with a smile: "Such a beautiful mushroom is poisonous, and it will be fatal to eat it." We've got to look for the white, or brown, and they'll grow under the trees, and they'll grow under the grass, and you'll have to look for them. ”

The group scattered to look for it, at this time it was rainy in the south of the Yangtze River, the ground was damp, there were many mushrooms in the forest, and the villagers often went up the mountain to pick, but they didn't dare to go to this side, but looked for it on the side.

So this side has not been looked for, and after a while, Lin Qingwan found a bush of edible straw mushrooms, and others also found it one after another, and began to pick it excitedly.

When they had filled their baskets and climbed up the mountain, it was almost noon, and they sat down by the cold spring to see the scenery and then filled a pot of water and went down the mountain.

There was such a long delay to go up the mountain, but it took less than a quarter of an hour to get down the mountain.

Handing over the basket to the next person, Lin Qingwan instructed: "Let the kitchen select materials from here, and we will eat wild vegetables and mushrooms at noon." ”

Danzhu said enviously to Lin Yubin: "Aunt Lin is really good to you, and she doesn't restrain you." ”

Danlan lowered her voice and said, "Didn't the old lady say that she was going to send us to study?" Maybe it will be a little more relaxed then. ”

Danju was worried, "But I haven't seen the old lady and the second wife mention it these days, my cousin has signed up here, and there is not much time before the first day of junior high school, and the eldest lady is there ......."

Lin Yubin smiled and said: "My sister-in-law said that my aunt will agree in the end, so you can rest assured, and we will go to school together when the time comes." ”

Danlan smiled, "Could it be that your aunt will not be able to tell fortunes, how do you know that my mother will agree?" ”

Lin Yubin pushed her and said, "My sister-in-law doesn't know fortune telling, but she knows that my aunt has a motherly heart, so I can't agree for you?" ”

The smile on Danlan's face was faint, and she only smiled and didn't speak.

Was her mother motherly at heart?

For as long as she can remember, her mother stayed in the Buddhist hall to eat fasting and chant sutras, whether she was sick or her brother was in trouble, she would not come forward, and she would only speak out when it came to the title.

Title?

Danlan's heart moved, and she thought about it.

In the evening, a subordinate brought by Danlan left the Lin family's courtyard under the pretext of going back to get something, Lin Qingwan didn't see it, and the next day when the weather was clear, he took them to play in Zhuangzi.

Lin Yubin followed her sister-in-law's housekeeper this spring, and she got to know a lot of crops, but Shang Danlan and the others really didn't know the grains, they still knew them when they became rice, flour and beans, but now they grow in the ground, but they don't know any of them.

So Lin Qingwan became a biology teacher again, teaching them to know about crops, and by the way, popularizing the process of their growth.

The four girls listened with relish, looking at the endless green crops, Danlan said enviously: "When the autumn harvest is over, Aunt Lin will make a lot of money." ”

Lin Yubin took the first step and sighed: "How can it be so simple, most of the Juetian sealed by His Majesty has not been cultivated, this manpower and material resources all need money, and the autumn harvest depends on the agricultural time, if God does not appreciate the face, it is good if it is not lost." ”

Danzhu was amazed when he heard this, pursed his lips and smiled: "Let me see, is this still Cousin Lin, isn't it fake?" ”

Danju also laughed, "It must be possessed by a spirit, otherwise how could Cousin Lin, who doesn't eat fireworks in the world, worry about these things?" ”

Lin Yubin stomped his feet angrily, "I'm talking to you seriously, but you are making fun of me." ”

Danlan smiled and comforted her, "It's not surprising that they are surprised, it's too unexpected, when did my cousin learn this?" ”

Lin Yubin looked at her sister-in-law with a red face.

Lin Qingwan smiled and said: "I was so busy at the beginning of spring that I couldn't turn around, she helped me, and the family's accounts had to go through her hands, didn't she know?" ”

The eyes of the three girls flashed with envy, they were not young, but they had never taken care of the family's accounts, although they would be tired of managing the accounts, and they might have learned a lot.

They already have a vague feeling that only the skills they have learned belong to them.

But the situation of the Shang family is complicated, and the three unmarried girls are not allowed to come out at all, that is, the second wife of Shang did not think of teaching Danzhu housekeepers, not to mention that there is a mother equivalent to Danlan without a mother and Danju who is a concubine?

It is also because of this that they envy Lin Yubin so much, although her parents died early, her aunt is devoted to her, and her life is no worse than the years when she was fostered in the Shang family.

It can be seen from her increasingly cheerful personality.

Lin Qingwan is good to Lin Yubin, and even benefits from them, these days Lin Qingwan deals with affairs in the morning, they read and practice calligraphy in the study, and in the afternoon Lin Qingwan takes them to the village to see the crops, or takes them to see the digging pond, or gives them some account books, so that they can learn to read the account steward.

If the old lady hadn't sent someone to pick them up, they would hardly have remembered going home.

The three girls took Lin Yubin's hand and reluctantly, and repeatedly admonished: "Cousin, you must remember to ask someone to pick us up to play, the old lady will not refuse any post you place." ”

Lin Yubin nodded and said, "Don't worry, maybe we will be able to meet on the first day of junior high school." ”

The grandmother who came to pick up the person smiled and said: "It's not that you can see each other on the first day of junior high school, the old lady has already agreed with the Lu family that she will send the three young ladies to study on the first day of junior high school, and when the time comes, Miss Biao will also go, so naturally we can meet." ”

Danlan was pleasantly surprised, "Is it really decided?" ”

"It's decided, it's decided," Mama said with a smile on her face: "The second wife asked the eldest grandmother to open the cage to make clothes for the young ladies, and the second master also took the time to go to Hanmo Zhai to buy the four treasures of the study for the young ladies." ”

It's a pity that the second wife was so angry about this, and felt that the second master had wasted time studying, and almost beat up the little guy who was serving around the second master.

In front of the Lin family, Mama naturally didn't say this, and after repeatedly thanking Lin Qingwan, she went back with the three masters.

She is an old lady's person, the first thing she did was to go in and report to the old lady, and she told the Lin family in detail about what she had seen, and then said with a smile: "The old lady can rest assured now, the aunt and grandmother of the Lin family are close to our Shang family, and the young ladies get along well with Miss Cousin." ”

Old Madam Shang smiled and bowed, "It's good that the children get along well." ”

She paused and asked, "The second master is still reading in the study?" ”

"Yes, I'm going to visit Mr. Lu tomorrow, so the second wife doesn't allow him to go out, and he's still studying."

Old Madam Shang frowned and said: "Reading is not like this, go, let people call him, and let him relax and relax, I can't toss my good grandson's body for the sake of reading." If his mother asks, she will say what I said, and let him do his filial piety. ”

Mama responded in a low voice, she knew that the old lady was fighting with the second lady recently, and she didn't dare to persuade her, so she bowed down and called someone.

Shang Mingjie, as a tool for mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to play games, is not uncomfortable being caught in the middle. He was young and a little ignorant at first, but during this time, the struggle between his grandmother and mother became more and more white, and he was sensitive by nature, although he was ignorant, he also felt something.

When the grandmother next to his grandmother opened the door and released him out of the study, he didn't feel very happy, but felt that the knife above his head was hanging again, glowing with a cold light, and it seemed that he might cut it down at any time.

Even Shang Mingyuan couldn't help but sympathize with this cousin who had interests entangled with him, and said to Xiao Fang: "Actually, there is nothing wrong with my mother not caring about things." ”
