Wen smiled, "Haven't they always been so virtuous, why are you still angry?"

"They've been taking me for a fool!" Second Master Lin said angrily.

Putting down the half-made winter clothes, Wen looked at her husband seriously, and said, "Husband, to be honest, our hearts and eyes are really not enough, and in the eyes of others, we are really like fools. Today in the Zhao family, Jiaojiao can see and think clearly, I can't see through, she is only fourteen years old."

Second Master Lin sighed and said dejectedly, "Shen Ge has no father or mother, he came out at the age of seventeen and opened a shop on his own. I'll be 30 next year, and I'll have to do some errands for my family."

The couple, who thought they weren't smart enough, were silent at the same time.

After a while, the greenhouse seemed to be admonishing her husband, and she was telling herself, "We don't have enough brains, so don't go out and fight with others, otherwise we don't know how to die."

Second Master Lin also came back to his senses, "That's it! When my father was there, we relied on my father, and when my father went, we listened to my eldest brother and sister-in-law. No matter how nice those things out there are, can a big brother and sister-in-law be good to us?"

Wen picked up his winter coat and continued to sew stitch by stitch, "unless they let the donkey kick in the head."

Reasoning, after the death of both parents, the brothers should be separated.

Old Man Lin's brother and sister split up after their father's death. Because the old man Lin is the eldest son, he got the ancestral house and most of the family business, after decades of hard work between the old man and Lin Kangnian, the Lin family's family business has increased several times, leaving the old man's two younger brothers far behind.

Although Mr. Lin has the ability, his heirs are not strong. Of the eleven children born to him by one wife and three concubines, only one son and two sons and three daughters survived in the end.

So for Second Master Lin, a boy born from the house, Old Man Lin is also very fond of him.

Before dying, Old Man Lin handed over the housekeeping and seal letter to his eldest daughter-in-law, and told her that she could not separate the family until the heirs in the second room grew up, Old Man Lin called the concubine to the bed again, looked at him uneasily, and said, "Your eldest brother has not returned from going to sea, and everything outside the family is up to your sister-in-law."

Therefore, after his father's death, the eldest brother did not return, no matter how ugly the people outside said, Second Master Lin listened to his sister-in-law everywhere.

When he turned around, he discussed with his sister-in-law, and also gave him a shop, so that he could take care of it himself! After Second Master Lin figured it out, he jumped up energetically, "I'll take Dafu to ride a horse for a while."

Wen, who likes horses, also came to his senses and waved his hand, "You go to explore the road, and I will take Jiaojiao and my daughter tomorrow."

As soon as Lin Erye and Dafu led the horse out of the yard, they saw his second sister get out of the carriage outside the mansion gate and walked over with his niece Qiao Yuanting.

"Second sister." Second Master Lin hurriedly threw the reins of the horse to the little maid and hurried to meet him.

Second Aunt Lin stopped and raised her eyes to look at her brother-in-law, "It's getting dark, do you still want to go out?"

For this second sister who seems to be calm and quiet, but is about to lift the roof when she gets angry, Second Master Lin was afraid in his heart, and replied respectfully, "If you don't go far away, you will take Dafu outside the gate to ride two laps."

After stopping for a while, he couldn't hear Lin Dafu's saluting voice, Lin Erye looked back and saw that the stupid boy was still leading the horse in place! ….

"Go ahead, don't hurt anyone."

Aunt Lin would not worry about a stupid child, so she followed the mother-in-law who came out to enter the courtyard gate. Qiao Yuanting saluted her second uncle and followed in. As soon as the two of them entered the Weeping Flower Gate, they saw Fang's and the greenhouse coming out with Lin Ruyu and Lin Rumei.

Second Aunt Lin took two quick steps and said gently, "You have injuries on your body, and you still pay attention to what you are doing with these false courtesies."

"Second aunt, cousin." Lin Ruyu also took the second sister to salute, and in front of the second aunt, the number of etiquette could not be saved at all, because Lin Ruyu was also afraid that the second aunt would get angry.

Second Aunt Lin glanced at her eldest niece's hand, and then saw that she didn't cry and swollen her eyes, so she relieved her heart.

Back in Fang's courtyard, three adults sat at the table eating tea, and three little girls crowded on the couch by the window and whispered.

Qiao Yuanting, who was bookish, asked her cousin curiously, "Jiaojiao, did you really beat the girl of the Song family?"

Lin Ergu's husband served as the pawn of the Xuanzhou Yamen, and the Qiao family came and went to the eunuchs in Xuanzhou City on weekdays, and had little contact with the merchants. However, the fact that Lin Ruyu beat Song Xiuying in the Zhao family was too shocking, and even the Qiao family heard the rumors.

Lin Ruyu nodded lightly, stretched out a little finger and explained, "I was angry at the time, so I ...... I hit it a little."

Second Aunt Lin, who was sitting at the table, heard it, turned her head and said, "Good fight."

It was rare to be praised by the second aunt once, Lin Ruyu's little face was flushed, and she looked at her mother in surprise, joy and helplessness, not knowing how to deal with it.

It's not that she coaxed her, it's that this aunt left a terrible impression on her, and when her grandparents were alive, they were careful in front of her.

Wen sat at the table honestly and didn't dare to come out, Fang took over the conversation with a smile, "Second sister, don't praise her, this kid can't help but praise when he is young."

Fang's words, Lin Ergu couldn't help laughing, and Lin Ruyu also followed silly.

Lin Ruyu is the first child of their generation in the family, because the children of the Lin family are prone to death, so Lin Ruyu has been quietly taken care of since she was a child and is highly loved.

When Zhou was arrested, after the beautifully dressed Xiao Ruyu was placed in the middle of the round table, the eldest aunt who came from afar boasted:

"Oh, the delicate eyes are so big and beautiful."

Everyone immediately followed and praised the little jade president, whose eyes were bigger and more beautiful than their parents'.

Xiao Ruyu listened, clenched her little fists and used all her strength, trying to open her eyes to the maximum, and the cute little appearance laughed down a room full of people old and young.

When she was a child, this embarrassing matter, every time relatives and friends came to the house, Lin Ruyu would be unhappy when she heard it before, but now she feels extremely warm.

Because now that she listens to it, the first thing she thinks of is that she has a family and parents, and she has been loved since she was a child.

It's blissful.

After laughing, Lin Ergu sent the children out and told Fang's about the disaster relief, "After Lord Taishou sent the disaster report, Jingli only said that the local government would do its best to provide disaster relief, but did not mention the matter of allocating money and food. My younger siblings have to be prepared, and I'm afraid it won't be easy to do so next."

Fang asked in a low voice, "Can't the state yamen open a warehouse to release grain?"

Second Aunt Lin shook her head gently, "Ting'er and her father said that without the will of the above, it is a felony to die in the opening warehouse to release grain."

At this time, Fang's heart sank even more.

Wen was puzzled, "I just paid the summer grain, and it's not like there is no food in the official warehouse. Why not? You can't just watch the people starve to death, can you?"

Second Aunt Lin didn't know much, so she only sighed and said, "There are still all kinds of difficulties in living a family, not to mention a huge court. I listen to Ting'er and her father's meaning, the world is not peaceful now."

What the court does is not up to them. Fang slowly clenched her fists, knowing that the next three months would be more difficult than she had thought.
