Chapter 137: Seeing Off
Shang Mingjie withdrew from the room, frowning and silent.
Shang Mingyuan patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't think about it, the most important thing for you now is to study hard, our family is still counting on you to be admitted to the Jinshi and glorify your ancestors." ”
Shang Mingjie smiled and said, "Big brother also came to make fun of me." ”
"It's not a joke," Shang Mingyuan glanced at him and said, "Now you are the only one in the family who can read, who don't you count on?" ”
Although he has many contradictions with the second room, and sometimes he hates it, and he longs that the second uncle is gone, but he still thinks that the Shang family is getting better and better.
After all, he also wants to be attached to the Shang family.
Although he doesn't want to admit it, Jiro is indeed very talented in reading and is the most likely person in their generation.
Shang Mingjie lowered his head, it was not that he could read, especially in this troubled world.
Shang Mingjie was a little dazed, and he still hadn't found where his efforts were.
But Lin Qingwan had a clear goal, and selected a guard from the escort team to follow Lin Xin, "In the future, you will treat Lin Xin as your master, except for the danger that he can't solve, you can report to me, and listen to him for the rest." ”
"Your family, the Lin family will take care of it, you just have to rest assured," Lin Qingwan handed him a letter of silver and said, "Let's go back and have a good reunion with my family tonight." ”
Pingsheng knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and said: "The little one begs my aunt and grandmother to give me a surname, and I am willing to be the Lin family for the rest of my life." ”
Lin Qingwan was stunned for a moment, and then nodded and said, "Okay, from today on, you will be called Lin Sheng,"
Pingsheng's eyes lit up, and he happily kowtowed to Lin Qingwan three times in a row.
He was picked up by Lin Zhi in a small town called Pingchi, and it is said that he didn't even cut the umbilical cord at that time, and was thrown in the grass, if Lin Zhi hadn't happened to pass by and heard his cry, he was afraid that he would be bitten by a wolf or dog at night.
Lin Zhi has taken in many children, he was the youngest when he entered the Lin family, and he was born less than a day.
Because he picked it up in Pingchi, he was surnamed Ping, and there are many guards who use place names as surnames like him.
The biggest wish of these people is to be surnamed Lin, anyway, they don't know what their surname is, and it is a great pride to be able to have a surname with the lord.
Pingsheng, no, Lin Sheng happily went to tell his wife and sons the good news.
The main reason why he was selected this time was that he was young, but he was capable and already had three sons.
Lin Sheng's wife was still sad that her husband was going on an expedition, but when she heard that her aunt and grandmother gave her surname, she was happy again, and pulled her three sons and kowtowed three times in the direction of the main courtyard.
Lin Sheng told her, "You are optimistic about your sons waiting for me to come back, don't worry, my kung fu is good, and I believe that Young Master's kung fu is not weak, and it will be fine." ”
Lin Xin was also comforting her grandmother and mother, "Aunt Jiu said to give me a guard to take with me, and General Su to take care of me, and I will come back safely." ”
Lin Mu wiped her tears and said: "There are no eyes on the battlefield, why can't you think about it like this, how many people can't escape if they want to evade military service......
"What nonsense?" Grandmother Lin scolded her lightly and said in a low voice: "This is the opportunity for Aunt Jiu to value Brother Xin'er, and no matter how many people ask for it, they can't ask for it." ”
She looked at Lin Xin and said: "Wealth and danger, you already have a lot of advantages over others, so you must be humble and forbearing, don't fight for a moment when you go outside, you should be humble, and your mother and brother and I will wait for you to come back safely." ”
Lin Xin's eyes were hot, he got up and knelt in front of his grandmother and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely come back safely." ”
Lin Zhan, who was only eight years old, seemed to understand whether he understood or not, but he also knew that his eldest brother was about to go away, his eyes were red, and he leaned on him very dependently.
Lin Xin reached out and touched his head, but did not speak again.
The next day, Lin Qingwan took Lin Sheng and waited at the south gate of the city, and Lin Run personally sent Lin Xin over, and when he saw that Lin Qingwan had also assigned him a guard, he was slightly shocked and turned his head to look at Lin Xin carefully.
Lin Xin had a new change of clothes, it was his grandmother who drove it out overnight, or coarse fabric, his face was dull, he really couldn't see his talent.
But Lin Qingwan seemed to like him very much, handed him a big burden, and carefully advised: "There are some commonly used wound medicines in it, and the usage is pasted, you can memorize it when you have time, and it may be useful in the future." ”
He also said: "Now that the south is also wet and cold, I have someone make you a cotton coat, and if it is cold, you will change it." ”
Lin Xin glanced at his grandmother and lowered his head to take the burden.
Lin Qingwan reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and whispered in his ear: "There are still some gold pieces in it, I sew them in the seams of my clothes, if there is an urgent need, I will open it and use it, it is not enough to write to me." ”
"Nine Aunt ......"
Lin Xin didn't expect her to be so thoughtful, and her eyes turned red again.
Lin Run nodded on the side, he was a grateful child, but he still couldn't see his talent.
"There are also two of your great-ancestor's notes," Lin Qingwan said softly: "If you talk about leading troops to fight, no one in the six countries can match him at the moment, so you should study hard." ”
Lin Xin nodded fiercely, took three steps back with his burden, knelt down and kowtowed to Lin Qingwan and his grandmother, tears fell into the dirt one by one, he blinked, tried to let the tears go back, and then got up and got on the horse.
Grandmother Lin couldn't help but take two steps forward and looked at him eagerly.
Lin Qingwan held her, and Lin Run assured Lin Xin immediately: "Don't worry, the clan will take care of your family." ”
Lin Xin reined in his horse and looked back at them, seeing that it was really early, so he reluctantly beat his horse and left.
Grandmother Lin couldn't help but wipe away her tears, and said gratefully to Lin Qingwan: "Thank you Grandma Jiu for your support." ”
Lin Qingwan smiled, "It's a good thing for the children of the clan to be promising, and if other children also have this talent, I will not hesitate to carry them." So my aunt doesn't have to thank me, Xie Linxin is capable and my aunt and sister-in-law are good at teaching. ”
"That's you exalting him." Grandmother Lin really thanked Lin Qingwan, just looking at the things and people that Lin Qingwan prepared for her grandson, she knew how much she valued him, their house was already a side branch, but they were attached to the clan and not being bullied.
If there is no one to support her, she doesn't know when she will be able to get up, so she knows how rare this opportunity is, and almost after her grandson came back, she weighed it for a moment and agreed.
She knew that her grandson had always been very smart and ambitious, but outsiders did not understand him, and only regarded him as a rigid and dull person, and he was not tactful enough to stand out.
Now that he has the opportunity, he is already halfway there.
Grandmother Lin was very grateful to Lin Qingwan, thinking that in the future, she would still have to go to the other courtyard from time to time to get in touch with her feelings, and there would be more places for her grandson to rely on Lin Qingwan in the future.
Lin Qingwan also wanted to connect the two families, so she said to Grandmother Lin: "In the future, my aunt can often come to my house to play, and if you have something, you can go to the fifth brother or come to me." ”
Grandmother Lin bowed her head and responded, and Lin Qingwan asked her to drive her back first, and stopped Lin Run, "Fifth brother, let's take a walk together." ”
