Chapter 197: Before the soldiers and horses moved, the grain and grass went first
What surprised Lin Yanniang the most was the child who was only four or five years old, a child who came out of Wankou Village for the first time.
Qijin can actually say, 'If you want to achieve great things, you must first work your muscles and bones, and work hard, aunt, I am not afraid of hardship, I am the eldest grandson of the Lin family, and I should naturally set a good example for the next generation of the Lin family!'.
Although Lin Yanniang later inquired carefully and found out that this was taught to him by the Zheng family, he could remember it clearly and express his thoughts clearly, which still made Lin Yanniang a little more satisfied with him.
When Lin's father and mother first came to the capital, they were worried that Lin Yanniang and An Jinyun would be bullied in the capital, and they didn't think about it at all, just by virtue of their identity, if someone really bullied Lin Yanniang and An Jinyun, that person was also something they couldn't provoke.
But this honest couple didn't care about this, and their thoughts at that time were that the child was bullied, and they wanted to support the child.
Now that it is confirmed that Lin Yanniang and An Jinyun are very good in the capital, and their daughter has also found a backer in the capital, Lin's father and Lin's mother insist on returning to Wankou Village.
Fathers and mothers are always like this, when the children need themselves, even if they know that the road ahead is difficult, they will still move forward through obstacles. But after making sure that the children are well, they will think that they can't cause trouble to the children, and insist on leaving the children.
Lin Yanniang also became a mother, so she could understand her father's thoughts, she wanted her father to stay in the capital, but she also knew that An Jinyun was afraid that there would be big things to do next, and her father's honest temperament was afraid that she would be frightened.
What's more, Father Lin and Mother Lin have repeatedly insisted that they are not yet able to take care of themselves, and besides, they still have their eldest son by their side, and Wankou Village is familiar, unlike the capital that doesn't know a few people at all.
So after this time, Lin Yanniang couldn't insist on anything, so she could only plan to prepare some more things for Lin's father and Lin's mother, so that they could go back and give them away.
The cloth in the capital must be prepared, unlike eating, I am afraid that it will be bad if I bring it back, and I will send cloth to people in Wankou Village, so Lin Yanniang prepared a lot of cloth for Father Lin and Mother Lin to take back.
Of course, what Lin Yanniang prepared would not be ordinary cloth.
Even if it's cotton, it's muslin, it's muslin with excellent prints on everything, not to mention brocade.
There are also silver gadgets, things that big families will use to reward their subordinates, Lin Yanniang was afraid that Father Lin and Mother Lin would mind, so she specially asked Mother Lin.
"You kid, just prepare cloth for them, what else do you want to do?"
Mother Lin is distressed by Lin Yanniang's silver, the silver plum blossoms that Lin Yanniang took out, and the silver fish, these are the best for children, as well as silver rings and silver bracelets, in the eyes of Mother Lin, this is all silver.
"I didn't prepare a lot, just forget about others, the Boyuan family, the aunt's family, the Lin family, and a few children who left with us.
The children gave silver plum blossoms and silver small fish, rings and bracelets, and the mother looked at which family had a girl to marry, or like the mother-in-law of those families, one person gave a set, which was not worth a few dollars, but just told them that my Lin Yanniang is not a person who forgets her roots. ”
Lin Yanniang looked at the four boxes of things in front of her and said to Lin Mu easily, these things look a lot, but they are really not worth a few dollars.
In the past few years, she has saved a lot of silver, and after returning to the capital, it is her mother-in-law's dowry, which is also a lot.
An Jinyun is not a man who will hold the family's money firmly in his hands, and he handed over all the family's money to Lin Yanniang.
Besides, the shop and Zhuangzi in her hand have income every year, so these things are really nothing to her now.
After Lin Yanniang's words were finished, Mother Lin was about to say something, but Father Lin stopped her.
"The child is right, these things are small things, and it is also appropriate for the people in the village to remember the child's goodness.
This is the first time we have come to the capital, and there will naturally be no such in the future, so let's make it clear when we give it, and say that it is the son-in-law who thanked everyone in the village for taking care of him in those years. ”
In fact, Father Lin didn't say anything, even if the people in Wankou Village were really greedy, there were four families, and there were village rules in the village, they didn't dare to do anything.
Not to mention, as long as there is a family with a little confidence in the village, there are children in the hands of their daughters and sons-in-law.
As long as these children are there, who would dare to come to find their daughter and son-in-law!
Lin Yanniang looked at Father Lin and understood what she meant, so she laughed.
"The children all wrote letters and prepared things for their parents to take back, and when they saw what their children had given them, they didn't dare to have them, even if they had any thoughts. ”
As soon as Lin Yanniang said this, Father Lin looked at her, what kind of character his daughter was, no one knew better than him, a father.
Seeing that his originally squeamish daughter has become like this, Father Lin is also pleased.
Don't you dare to have a daughter who can say such a thing, then she must have confidence!
"When this matter goes back, let your mother discuss it with your cousin, and with your cousin's help, you can rest assured. ”
Hearing Father Lin mention the Zheng family, Lin Yanniang remembered the last time Xiao Zheng said something about leaking his mouth.
"Dad, do you know what kind of family your aunt's family is?"
The Zheng family is also a big family in their village, at first Lin Yanniang thought that the Zheng family was like the Lin family in their Wankou Village, but she didn't expect that the Zheng family was not so simple.
Father Lin was surprised why Lin Yanniang suddenly mentioned the Zheng family, but after Lin Yanniang said what Xiao Zheng said that day, Father Lin was also puzzled.
"Dad doesn't know what's going on with the Zheng family, but he just knows that your aunt and their Zheng family moved in later. ”
It was the first time that Lin Yanniang knew that the Zheng family had moved to the village next door to Wankou Village later, but since her father didn't know about it, forget it.
But......
"Dad, you see that Aunt Tang's family can work together so much, it must be Aunt Tang's strength. But I think that the Zheng family's family rules are also very important, should our Lin family also have a family rule?
Not to mention anything else, that is, this child should study when he is five years old, whether male or female, our Lin family is not without that ability: and our Lin family's life is getting better and better, and there may be children and grandchildren who will not learn well in the future, and this Lin family man can only take a concubine at the age of forty without heirs, and it is also needed. ”
Regarding the family rules of the Lin family, Lin Yanniang naturally just mentioned to Father Lin that how to formulate them was something that Father Lin could decide.
Father Lin just heard Lin Yanniang talk about the Zheng family's family rules, and he was also moved.
Just like Lin Yanniang said, the people of the Lin family are all good now, but what about in the future?
The descendants of the Lin family will multiply in the future, and there will only be more and more people, and the nine sons of the dragon are still different, and the descendants of the Lin family in the future, who can determine whether they are good or not.
"What you say is reasonable, but this matter is not in a hurry, wait for Dad to think about it. ”
Lin Yanniang saw that Father Lin agreed, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
She also mentioned this matter to An Jinyun, and An Jinyun also responded in one bite, but he also said that he needed to think about it.
This rule, but it is to be passed down from generation to generation, it is a family, in this broken years, the best sign!
"When you came this time, I saw that you are all a lot older, and I have prepared a lot of supplements for you, all of which are sent by other people's families, my cousin also has them, and my brother-in-law's mother's family also has one. Lin Yanniang looked at Father Lin and said this, then looked at Mother Lin, "Mother, when you go back, help me bring a message to my cousin, just say, 'The soldiers and horses have not moved the grain and grass first', and she will know what I mean." ”
Lin Yanniang didn't know why she was worried like this, but she always knew that relying on others was better than relying on herself, and this kind of thing was not as reliable as finding her cousin.
Mother Lin didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, but Father Lin understood.
He looked at his daughter, guessing in his heart what his son-in-law was going to do, and the more he thought about it, the more terrible he felt.
It seems that he decided to go back to Wankou Village this time!
The only thing that his daughter and son-in-law can rely on now is Wankou Village, which they are guarding, so Father Lin also made up his mind in his heart, this time when he returns to Wankou Village, he must prepare more things for his daughter and son-in-law.
Lin Yanniang didn't know what Father Lin had guessed, and after talking to Father Lin and Mother Lin, she went back to her yard.
Lin Yanniang was looking forward to what kind of ice lantern An Jinyun would make, but in order to be amazed when she saw it at night, she still resisted the idea of going to investigate.
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month in the capital is called the Lantern Festival, the competition of ice lanterns, and the guessing of lantern riddles, all of which are traditions in the capital.
After today, the whole capital is lively, and the year will be over.
Lin Yanniang prepared some food according to the tradition of the capital, and stared at the kitchen to make a lot of jerky for each of the children who were leaving home.
This jerky was learned by Lin Yanniang from Yingniang who stayed in Biansai, and after Yingniang married into Biansai, the first thing she learned was the jerky that Biansai's family would make.
Their jerky is not only not woody, but also has a special taste.
Lin Yanniang's cooking is delicious, and several children love meat, so she thought about it for a while and decided to prepare some jerky for each child.
Of course, Lin Yanniang also prepared clothes and shoes for the children.
Especially the children who practice martial arts, the clothes and shoes are prepared a lot.
Of course, there are also gifts that each child wants to bring to their respective masters, and Lin Yanniang is also very attentive.
When Lin Yanniang prepared all the things and the sky darkened, the lantern festival would start at night, and everyone would generally start eating at this time.
Because everyone will leave tomorrow, Lin Yanniang has prepared a lot of dishes tonight, and when An Jinyun came to the hall with a few children, what she saw was a table of exquisite dishes.
Lin Yanniang was a little disappointed when she saw that An Jinyun didn't bring the ice lantern, but she still smiled when she thought that she would be able to see the ice lantern that An Jinyun carved for herself later.
An Jinyun looked at the change in the expression on Lin Yanniang's face, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, he thought, when Yan Niang saw the ice lamp he made for her, would she throw herself into her arms?
(Second watch, eat something and start the third watch!)
