Shen Hong naturally nodded, they were waiting outside, Shen Hong went to ask, everyone knew that the county lord now admired Shen Hong's talent, so naturally immediately gave him directions, and Shen Hong went to the county lord's study to say goodbye.

The county was a little surprised, but thinking that they had a long way to go, if they had something to do first, it was not good to leave them because they thought that Lin Piao wanted to accompany their own jade girl, so he encouraged a few words to study diligently in the future, if there is something to look for him, the next time you come to the county government, remember to come to the door and something like that.

Shen Hong responded one by one, went out of the house and repeated the words with Lin Piao, and Lin Piao felt that the county lord still attached great importance to Shen Hong, so he didn't think much about it.

"Let's go home, we've bought so many things, we're going home to unload the goods, and it's just about to end the Mid-Autumn Festival, so we're going back to continue teaching those little cubs."

The three of them got on an ox cart and returned to their hometown.

On the county side, the county lord sent Shen Hong away, and he heard the maidservant come to report that his wife had something to look for him.

"Is something wrong?"

"Madame said that there was a servant girl and wanted to ask the master how he had done so."

"If the servant girl makes a mistake, it's good that the lady is gone, if it's not a big thing, a small punishment and a big commandment."

Madame said...... said that it had something to do with Lin Piao and Shen Hong. ”

"Oh?" The county lord got up, wondering what it had to do with it, but he walked towards the backyard with curiosity.

Originally, the girl told Madame about this, and Madame ordered someone to bring Lin Er over to confront her.

She was angry in her heart, recently Yu Niang was so angry, and Lin Piao came to be better, the meal was willing to eat well, and the words could be said well, look at a lot of sensible, not like before only know how to cry, she thought to herself that Lin Piao is a good one, stay with Yu Niang for a while, teach Yu Niang more truth, I didn't expect a good guest, called a maid below to give a meal, who in this world doesn't know what the maid says and does is the meaning of the master's family, she treats Lin Piao like this, Lin Piao may think it is what she means.

She is the mother of the back house, she has to be decent in everything, Lin Piao helped them yesterday, and she is so angry today.

"You get on your knees!" The lady squeezed the handkerchief and patted the table: "You have lost all the face in our house, is there a reason for you to treat guests like this, you have been in the house for so many years, and you have forgotten what you have been taught?" ”

Lin Er was trembling with fright, but she didn't expect that Madame would ask for such a trivial matter: "Madame...... I didn't say anything, they couldn't listen to it, everyone knows that Lin Piao's temperament is so powerful, and he is so powerful when he fights a lawsuit......

"How dare you say it!" Madame clenched her handkerchief tightly, and looked at Lin Er, who had been raised in the yard for so many years, and had been educated in so many rules and behaved in the world, how could she not even do a little thing, it was really disappointing to her.

"You are so small-minded, you can't get used to seeing a guest like this, how dare we use you in the future?"

Lin Er's eyes widened in shock: "Madam...... What are you talking about...... Lin Er has been following the yard for five years, madam, don't want Lin Er. ”

"You know it now, why didn't you know to repent earlier, okay, since you can't do things, I'll call the master to see how you are arranged, after all, you are a person who has been in front of the master, and you can't sell it at will."

Lin Er's face turned pale with fright, and she stepped forward on her knees and wanted to hug Madame's leg: "Madam, Madame, I have been following you for five years, and you used to praise me for my good appearance, saying that you would help me find someone." ”

The girl stopped her and forbade her to come forward and disturb Madame.

After a long while, the county magistrate arrived, and when he saw Lin Er kneeling on the ground in the house, he cried heavily: "What's the matter?" ”

The girl told the cause and effect again, and the adult shook her head when she heard it: "I originally said that Shen Hong's sudden resignation was probably something urgent, but it turned out that it was because of this, you girl, you treat guests and make friends just to make good connections, you are good, you provoke people in vain, what is it like." ”

Lin Er saw that although the master reprimanded him, he was not angry, so he hurriedly begged: "Master, Lin Er really didn't mean to, Lin Er will never dare to do it again next time, please spare Lin Er this time, next time Lin Piao comes to the house again, I will personally apologize to him." ”

The lady on the side only shook her head when she heard this: "You made a mistake, you don't have a good face, others will only think that it is the meaning of the master of the house, so you broke the relationship, caused trouble, but made a feud, I said more than Lin Piao, the last time Yang Fushang's second lady came to me, you saw her nose is not a nose and not an eye, she didn't say anything on the surface, and when she went back, she didn't give Yang Fushang eye medicine, and then the lord went to him to donate, and two of the three times he couldn't donate, and then I had a good relationship with her eldest lady, and she agreed." I said that it was because the second lady was neglected and had a grudge in my heart, and I remembered the way you were that day, and it must have been you, but after so long, I didn't punish you, but just taught you to have a good attitude in the future, and I didn't care what happened to my sisters in private, but when I saw a guest, I had to greet people with a kind smile, but you still didn't change it, and you caused trouble like this. ”

The girl was shocked when she listened: "It's like this......"

Madame looked at her: "What? Did she say anything to you privately? ”

The girl hesitated for a while: "Lin Er said...... The second lady is ordinary, not as good-looking as her, and she is younger in terms of age, so she may not be able to marry a rich man and be a lady. ”

Madame pressed the corner of her forehead, and was so angry that she had a headache: "It turns out that you still have such a heart, no wonder you look down on it like this, my lord, look at what this Nizi should do, I think she has been serving in our yard for a long time, and it is not good to be too cruel to her." ”

Lin Er held her breath and looked at the county lord with pitiful eyes, her eyes were full of tears, her eyes were red, and her eyes were pitiful, hoping that the county lord would take pity on her at this moment.

The county lord didn't even look at her, walked straight to the lady's side, sat down on the side, and thought for a while, such a person really can't stay in the house, the previous lady didn't tell him about Yang Fushang, he said no wonder Yang Fushang is getting more and more difficult to persuade, this year he especially doesn't like to donate money to repair bridges and pave roads, which makes him have a headache, it turns out that there are such unknown things in the middle.

"Madame is right, after all, she has been serving us for so many years, and it is impossible to sell her, so we should make a good fortune and send her back to her father, who is also old, and it is a good thing to be filial in front of her father and mother in the future, and to marry and have children."

As soon as Lin Er heard this, his face turned white to the bottom: "No...... I don't want to go back to the countryside, I've been in the county government for five years, it's like my home, I don't want to go back to the countryside! ”

The lady raised her hand, and the people on the side dragged her down: "Don't let her quarrel anymore, inform her family as soon as possible, and let them come and take her back." ”

The lord and the lady took care of the matter, and then talked about Lin Piao and Shen Hong: "Since Shen Hong still asked the lord to say goodbye, it is not really angry, maybe it is really something to take care of at home, and the next time they come to the county government if they have something to do, we will tell them about it, and there must be no barrier." ”

The adult stroked his beard and nodded: "Naturally, but Shen Hong, this kid is extraordinary, he only has knowledge but no brains in his stomach, and he is so pure that he can't talk about it, even if he doesn't say it, he can't talk about the word estrangement." ”

When Lin Piao walked into the village with an ox cart, it was already dusk, the half-temperature sun slowly sank on the ridgeline, and the village was coated with a layer of pale yellow light, and the wind blew the hair in front of Lin Piao's forehead, blowing his spirit.

The neighbors on all sides walked out of their homes, and they were dumbfounded when they saw that Lin Piao had pulled so many things back, good fellows, they had not been to the county government once or twice a year, and it was the first time they saw anyone who could fill the ox carts.

"Good fellow, is that a big quilt? When he got married, his mother's family didn't buy a quilt for him, so he would have bought two large beds, which was really not his own. ”

"That bag looks like rice? It won't be long before the autumn harvest begins, and then there will be rice to eat, so why do you still buy rice from outside! ”

"How can those clothes be so thick and stacked, look like several, how can they be made so much, a thick winter dress is enough, how can you buy such a summer dress?!"

A group of people looked at it with envy and jealousy, and when his father and mother came to the door before, they said that they had no money, and that it was money, but no matter how rich they were, they could only feel uncomfortable, and finally came to a conclusion.

"The hands are so tight, they can't save money by spending money lavishly, and their little Shen family will be finished in the future!"

Lin Piao was beaming with joy as he carried things, Shen Hong was helping to get them, and the second aunt came out of the house and was startled to see so many things, so she hurriedly stepped forward to carry them.

"Auntie, I also bought the cloth you wanted, as well as cotton, look at the color and see if you like it."

The second aunt glanced at him and looked nervous: "I'll talk about this later, there is another person in your family." ”

Lin Piao: "? ”

How dare you come.

"It's not your father and stepmother, it's your eldest brother."

"What's the matter with him?"

"I didn't say it, but he looked very happy, and said that he had something good to tell you."

"Really? What else can they do if they look for me? ”

The second aunt arched his elbow and arched him: "After all, it's a kiss, maybe there's really something good to think of you, you will go in to see him quickly, I'll just clean up the things, as usual, I still have to eat and put it on my side, and put the clothes for you in Shen Hong's house, right?" ”

"That's all." Lin Piao shouted: "Erzhu? Come out and move things. After shouting, he walked to his yard.

Chapter 40

Lin Piao walked towards the house, Lin Dazhuang had been waiting in the house for a while, just now the second aunt said that there was movement outside and asked him to sit and let her go out to see, at this time he was already standing at the door of the hall and saw that it was Lin Piao who came back.

Not only Lin Piao came back, but also the things of the ox cart, the second aunt, the second pillar, Shen Hong, and a familiar but unknown man, a bunch of people moved back and forth for a while, and a stack of winter clothes almost half a person high, thick cotton quilts, Lin Dazhuang was dumbfounded.

You must know that cotton quilts are the most expensive things, and I don't know how many winter coats can be made of cotton inside, which are thick and tight, and then covered with good cotton cloth on the outside, and the inside is different, and the outside must be made of patterned cloth to look good.

"Piao'er, you ...... How do you buy these things, you know? ”

"Know what? Of course I have to buy a quilt for the winter, I am married and I don't have a quilt, big brother, you don't feel sorry for me, I can only feel sorry for myself. Lin Piao's face was sad.

Lin Dazhuang was said by Lin Piao, and his face suddenly couldn't go down, so he could only immediately change to something else, thinking of what he wanted to say, the smile on his face couldn't stop: "Piao'er, tell you a good thing, you must be happy, my father told me a family business, I am going to get married, you used to remember my family the most, now the eldest brother is also going to get married, you are also a family, since you die and don't remarry, then I won't say anything, if I have a child in the future, if I have a son in the front, the second one will be brought to you to raise, In this way, you also have to have a pensioner. ”

“……？？？”

After listening to this, Lin Piao only had one sentence left in his head echoing, cut autumn, cut autumn, this palace has a lot of headaches.

Lin Dazhuang saw that Lin Piao's expression was not very good, and hesitated: "What's wrong?" Is there something wrong with the big brother, why are you not happy about such a good thing. ”

"Brother, where did you say, I have a good little uncle, he is a lot younger than me, and he will start a family and start a business in the future, and some of the younger generations are filial to me, how can I snatch the love of the eldest brother's child, besides, the sister-in-law has not passed the door, does she know about this, doesn't it make her sad, you can't get by?"

Lin Dazhuang rubbed his hands: "This ...... That's exactly what you're saying, this ......."

Lin Dazhuang took a long time to say the whole thing: "Actually, I came, one is to want to give you a voice to the ward, the eldest brother is going to get married, so you can rest assured, and the other, the eldest brother is going to get married, since you are living a good life now, why do you have to show a little?" ”

"Big brother, I said last time my father and mother came, everything in the family is Shen Hong's, I have no reason to take it out of thin air and give it to you, after doing this, Shen Hong still recognizes me as a sister-in-law, and I can't live in the future?"

Lin Dazhuang couldn't do anything about Lin Piao, Lin Piao's mouth was so strict, he didn't let go of his mouth at all, and he said it so loudly that he couldn't hold the handle like a loach, making him want to say that this younger brother was not affectionate and couldn't say: "Piao'er, the eldest brother is really difficult, you don't want to go through these cutscenes to the eldest brother, I am you came out of the belly to kiss the eldest brother, and the father gave birth to the two of us. ”

"Why is the eldest brother talking so angry, why is he only getting along with me, isn't it good for my mother and Chunmei to treat my eldest brother? The first few times my mother and spring sister came to me, the eldest brother didn't necessarily face me, but he said that a lot of mothers were for my good, how could I forget this. ”

Lin Dazhuang's expression froze: "Don't laugh at me, you don't have to look at your face at home when you are married, I'm still at home, as long as I don't separate the family, I have to live at home, and I have to rely on my mother to help me talk about my daughter-in-law, I don't look at my mother, how can I have a good face in the future." ”

"My stupid big brother, you haven't seen it and you should have heard it, marrying a daughter and marrying a brother is a one-time business, and it will be difficult to ask for money after the dowry is collected, and the most profitable is the dowry, I married this dowry and it is not that I didn't give it, anyway, I don't need it, you are my own eldest brother, naturally all of it is given to you, isn't it a natural thing to take the money I married to you to marry a daughter-in-law, how can you still lack money."

Lin Piao's left hand sacrificed the feudal rules to kill, and his right hand sacrificed the shrimp to punish the heart, and the double kill combined attack looked at him with an innocent smile.

Instead of letting Lin Dazhuang toss himself, it is better to let Lin Dazhuang go home to make trouble.

When Lin Dazhuang heard this, he was speechless, and stood in the hall with a struggling face, and after organizing his thoughts for a long time, he said: "You are right...... But ......"

"What else can I do, I had so many dowries, I can't say what a rich life, it's always enough to marry you a daughter-in-law, if you really want to marry a daughter-in-law, go back and make the dowry clear, don't let your father and mother go, don't say I didn't help you."

Lin Dazhuang found that he couldn't move Lin Piao at all, and he didn't know what kind of scales Lin Piao was eating now, his heart was so iron, no one could move a little, and in the end he could only put away his thoughts, thinking that what he said was reasonable, and it was also appropriate to think of a way from the side of the dowry.

He solved a big matter in his heart, and finally felt that he had an idea of money, and his expression was a little relaxed: "Piao'er, then I'll go back after dinner, and see how I talk to my father and mother about this matter, since it is your dowry, there should always be a large share of mine." ”

"This is inconvenient, if it is okay for me to cook, now I eat at the second aunt's house, Shen Hong and I are both rubbing rice, eating every day is looking at other people's faces, you say Shen Hong is okay, after all, I am teaching Erzhu to read, I follow Shen Hong to eat and drink for nothing is already very despised, big brother, you must be even more unpopular, there is no need to be angry for a meal, it will not be too late, big brother, you can still have dinner when you hurry home."

Lin Piao pushed Lin Dazhuang out of the door, Lin Dazhuang turned around three times, and wanted to see Lin Piao's new quilt again, but he had been pushed to the door by Lin Piao with a sad face.

"Big brother, go back quickly, we'll see you next time, let's go, let's go, don't delay dinner."

Lin Dazhuang was pushed out of the yard, and when he saw that there were still many neighbors watching outside, it was not good to enter the yard again, and it was not good to step back when he went out, so he could only say goodbye to Lin Piao, saying that if there was news, he would tell him next time.

Lin Piao's surface is well, his heart is about to crack, his sister is too unlucky to marry him, I hope the marriage will be broken as soon as possible.

Lin Dazhuang walked on the way back to the village, his head kept turning, thinking about Lin Piao's words for a while, thinking about how to persuade his father and mother to take out Lin Piao's dowry for his own use, thinking about his own family affairs, and feeling happy in his heart.

He was embarrassed to say to Lin Piao that many people were robbing him of this family business, and his father and mother looked at each other everywhere, and if he wanted to get a dowry, he had to be of the right age to be outstanding, and because he was tall and strong, his father and mother liked him very much, and asked him to marry back with more dowry.

You must know that this woman is a maid in the county lord's house, and now that she is old, the lord's family should give a grace to let her out to marry, this kind of woman who has been in the county mansion has served in front of the county lord, who doesn't want to listen to it, such a good family affair is not ten out of ten when it falls on his head, he is not good at making a noise, and the other is afraid that Lin Piao will be unhappy when he hears it, after all, Lin Piao has also said before, asking him to marry a down-to-earth person who can run the family, and it is estimated that he does not want him to marry a too beautiful one.

Although they haven't seen each other yet, Lin Dazhuang already thinks that the girl in his heart is as beautiful as a fairy daughter, and if he marries this girl and has this relationship, maybe he can continue her relationship and go to the county government to find some livelihood to do.

The more Lin Dazhuang thought about it, the more he felt that this marriage was good, and he couldn't get out the money from Lin Piao's side, but he should share a large share of the money in his father's hand, which was a legitimate thing, and he must not delay this marriage.

Lin Dazhuang thought that the stepmother usually pinched the money so tightly, and slowly sank his face, and when the village entered the house, the stepmother was setting up a meal in the courtyard, and when he saw him walk in, his eyes looked around, and he frowned when he came back empty-handed: "You useless thing!" How did you come back empty-handed?! That's your own brother, you can't even get it, do you still have some chance?! ”

Lin Dazhuang raised his eyes and looked at him directly: "What about Piao'er's dowry, did you put it in your house?" ”

Lin Zhoushi was startled when he saw his expression: "What kind of dowry, you have a bag of things, let you go out to ask for things, you come back and dig out your mother's nest, we have a few dollars at home, Lin Piao has a lot of it, you go to Lin Piao's place to find a way." ”

"Piao'er said, his dowry is for me to marry a daughter-in-law, you usually don't use it less, now you should take it out for me!"

On the side, Lin Chun heard Lin Dazhuang's words and stood up: "Big brother, why did you talk to your mother?!" ”

Usually Lin Dazhuang can't beat a fart with three sticks, but now when he goes to Lin Piao's side, he suddenly seems to have changed as a person, and he knows that Lin Piao picked it up, Lin Chun was angry, but Lin Dazhuang pointed at her: "The new clothes you are wearing now, the new clothes you have recently cut, the cloth used is in the dowry, and the money spent is also in the dowry, you shut up for me, if I can't marry a daughter-in-law, you don't want to have a good reputation!" ”

"You...... You're crazy! ”

"I'm just crazy, now I want a dowry! I want a daughter-in-law! ”
