Chapter 10: The Lin Family's Birthday Banquet

"Third young master, the old lady's birthday is about to begin, the head of the family asks your mother and son to go to the lobby to gather quickly, oh! By the way, don't forget to bring a birthday gift! ”

It was the Lin family's housekeeper who spoke.

No matter how low the status of Lin Zimo's mother and son is in the Lin family, the two of them can be regarded as the masters of the Lin family.

But this housekeeper didn't have any respect for Lin Zimo's mother and son, and even kicked the door with his feet.

"I know Steward Wang, and I have to bother you to make a special trip, so we'll go over."

Lin Zimo's mother squeezed out a smile, as the master, she actually wanted to compliment a housekeeper!

However, this humble attitude did not win the favor of the other party, but made Steward Wang even more arrogant.

"I know I'm still here to trouble! Like the eldest lady, the second lady has already gone to the lobby to wait, which is like you, you have to have someone to invite you. The butler sneered.

Lin Zimo gradually became cold, his fists clenched.

"It's my fault, let's get over here." Lin Zimo's mother laughed.

"Humph!"

Steward Wang snorted coldly, looked around and saw the famous wine on the display shelf in the room, and couldn't help but light up his eyes, strode over and took it directly into his arms: "This wine is good, it should be regarded as an apology." Hurry up. ”

After speaking, Steward Wang hummed a little song and left leisurely.

Listening to the footsteps gradually disappearing, Lin Zimo couldn't hold back anymore and roared in a low voice: "Sooner or later, one day I will kill this snobbish dog thing!" ”

"Okay, Steward Wang is the old man of the Lin family, and he is still very prestigious in the Lin family, so we can't offend."

Lin Zimo's mother thought for a moment and took out an extremely transparent green jade from the dark compartment under the pillow.

She touched the jade very reluctantly, thought a lot, and said: "This is the jade that your father gave me back then, it is very expensive, you can take it as a birthday gift for grandpa." ”

"Mom, how can this work! This is a relic left by Dad, and it has special significance! Don't worry about the birthday gift, I ......"

Without waiting for Lin Zimo to finish speaking, his mother waved her hand and interrupted: "Your father and I are just a son like you, now your grandfather is seriously ill, and I don't know how many days I can last, your task now is to behave better when your grandfather is alive, and you can share more inheritance in the future, once the old man dies, our mother and daughter will definitely be kicked out of the Lin family, you have to prepare for your future." ”

"Let's go! Let's hurry over and not let them grab the talk again. ”

didn't give Lin Zimo a chance to speak, so his mother pulled him to the lobby of the Lin family.

When they arrived at the lobby, they found that the others had just arrived, and Steward Wang lied to them.

In this regard, Lin Zimo's mother and son can only swallow bitterness in their stomachs.

When everyone arrived, the atmosphere in the Lin family's lobby suddenly became weird.

"Brother and sister, I heard that you have saved some money over the years, there are several millions, is the old man's 80th birthday today going to come up with a birthday gift that amazes everyone!"

Lin Zimo's second aunt, that is, Lin Zisheng's mother, took the lead in attacking.

It must have been Lin Zisheng who told his mother about the birthday ceremony, and then looked at the gloating eyes of everyone around him, everyone knew about the birthday ceremony, so he waited to give Lin Zimo's mother and son an ugly look now.

Lin Zimo's mother smiled: "Second sister-in-law, you know my situation, Zimo's father died early, and I have no income, where did I get the money to buy a good birthday gift, that is, there is a piece of jade, I hope to make the old man happy." ”

"Third brother and sister, isn't it the sister-in-law who said you, what kind of jade and jade haven't you seen in our family? You just come out with such a thing, do you want to make the old man happy, or do you want to disgust the old man? While the old man hasn't come out yet, hurry up, go and change it, after so many years in the Lin family, there is no big money, more than five million should always be able to take it out, right? Use the money to buy a nice gift, with your heart! ”

A middle-aged lady stood up, and her words were extremely insidious.

Lin Zimo's face became even more gloomy.

Even five million know about it!

These bastards are really colluding! Lin Zimo's mother was a little overwhelmed for a while when she heard the words of the two sisters-in-law.

This jadeite is her most valuable thing at present, but it has become a worthless tatte in the eyes of others.

I'm afraid that today's birthday, their mother and son are more auspicious.

Seeing his mother's face red and white for a while, Lin Zimo took two deep breaths, suddenly took a step and shouted loudly: "Who said we don't have a good birthday gift!" The birthday gift I brought this time can cure grandpa's illness! ”

For a moment, there was silence in the lobby.

Everyone's eyes looking at Lin Zimo contained deep meaning, and they didn't know what they were thinking.

"Ahem~"

Lin Qishan, the second eldest of the Lin family, Lin Zimo's second uncle, coughed a few times and said tentatively: "Zimo, this kind of thing can't be used as a joke, could it be said that you have found some panacea?" ”

Lin Zimo stared at Lin Qishan coldly, and said with something in his words: "Second uncle, do I have any panacea, don't you know it in your heart?" You don't know, my second brother doesn't know? ”

"I don't have any medicine in my hand......"

Speaking of this, everyone secretly sighed, it seems that the blood ginseng really let Gao Ming take it away.

But there is no medicine, what does Lin Zimo mean by cure?

I saw that Lin Zimo took out two hundred-yuan bills from his arms and said, "Although I don't have medicine, I have the talisman given to me by the fairy brother!" ”

Quiet~

The entire lobby fell silent again, but the next second burst into laughter full of sarcasm.

Everyone laughed back and forth, tears coming out of their eyes.

"Zimo, you...... You're ...... You're too nonsense, just say that money is a talisman, and you can believe the words of charlatans? still said it with such confidence, if this is spread outside, won't it make people laugh at our Lin family for being a fool? Lin Qishan wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and his hanging heart was completely put down.

"Third brother, you won't be crazy with stimulation, right? Grandpa loves you the most, so you repay grandpa like this? Two hundred...... Our Lin family has your two hundred yuan? You're humiliating grandpa! Lin Zisheng said sadly.

"Humph!"

Lin Zimo's second aunt snorted coldly: "I said a long time ago that the third brother died early, and he only relied on the peasant woman of his younger brother and sister to raise him, and in the end he raised only uneducated and short-sighted laymen!" You see, now they've come up with gods and ghosts. ”

As soon as the talisman came out, Lin Zimo's mother and son instantly became the target of everyone's crusade, and gradually became fearless when they spoke.

"That's it!"

Suddenly, Lin Qitian, the boss of the Lin family, who had been silent, spoke, and after stopping everyone, he looked at Lin Zimo. said: "Zimo, uncle has always known that you are a sensible and good boy, how can you ...... today?" How can such a ridiculous thing be done? Now that your grandfather is critically ill, how many families are staring at our Lin family and want to carve us up. Even the birthday banquet was secretly held at home, and I didn't dare to invite any guests! ”

"You did such a stupid thing today, and it will have a great negative impact on our Lin family, so let's not take it as an example."

At this time, the door of the old man's room of the Lin family was suddenly opened.

The Lin family's personal doctor walked out of the room and attracted everyone's attention in an instant.

"Doctor, where's my dad?" Lin Qitian hurriedly stepped forward, and the others followed.

The doctor sighed and said very ashamedly: "I'm afraid we can't do anything about it, all kinds of means have been used, but the old man's health is still getting worse and worse, I'm afraid he won't be able to survive tonight." ”

The sudden bad news made Lin Zimo's face pale, and the entire Lin family loved him the most.

After his grandfather fell ill, he never felt the warmth of the Lin family again.

When the rest of the people heard the news, they didn't say anything about their grief, and the corners of their mouths turned off a curvature.

"You'd better go and see the old man for the last time." The doctor said.

Without waiting for the doctor to finish speaking, Lin Zimo was the first to rush in.

Seeing that his grandfather's face was withered, his body was thin, and he was full of tubes, Lin Zimo suddenly felt distressed in his heart, and knelt down beside the old man's bed, crying: "Grandpa! Don't leave me! ”

Seeing that Lin Zimo had already rushed in, the rest of the people hurriedly followed, after all, they still had to do a full set of plays.

Lin Qitian came to the old man's bedside and said:

"Dad, are you really going to leave us? The Lin family still has a lot of things to deal with for you, if you leave, the Lin family will be in chaos! Lacking a person of the same age, the Lin family is probably just meat on someone else's chopping board! ”

"Dad, make a will! The Lin family can't do without a leader. ”

said a lot, I'm afraid only the last sentence is the focus of what Lin Qitian wants to say.

The old man is not dead yet, and he is in a hurry to run for the head of the family, wanting to divide the inheritance under the old man's hands.

Lin Zimo was angry, pushed everyone away, and roared angrily:

"Grandpa won't die!! There is a talisman given by the fairy brother, and grandpa will not die!! ”
