Chapter 187 Xu Family (2)
Old Mrs. Lin is not a regular person either. Lin Chengzhi said it was just a small business: "You can do business, but you can't get into business."
Lin Chengzhi nodded and then asked tentatively: "Mom, we have to thank the person who recommended us to go to Lingquan Temple to burn incense. If it weren't for him, we wouldn't have gone to Lingquan Temple. Without the blessing of the Bodhisattva, how could the eldest brother and second brother pass the exam!"
Old Mrs. Lin shook her head and said, "I asked your father last night, and your father said he knew it and told me not to care."
Lin Chengzhi was a little surprised: "Didn't Dad say who it is?"
Old Mrs. Lin smiled and said, "Your father is mysterious. In fact, I guessed it if he didn't say it. Except for your cousins, how could anyone else touch him!"
The husband is so stubborn that he can only listen to the words of a few cousins from the Xu family.
Lin Chengzhi was calculating in his heart, but he smiled and said, "Don't blame the Xu family for having so many juren and Jinshi. It turns out that they all worshipped the Bodhisattvas of Lingquan Temple."
Old Mrs. Lin smiled and said, "You can't say that. It's because your elder brother and your second brother have real talents and knowledge. If you get the blessing of the Bodhisattva, you will pass the exam. If you are a lump of wood, it's useless to worship the Bodhisattva."
"Mom is right." After saying that, Lin Chengzhi asked again: "Mom, do you think it's the second cousin or the third cousin?"
Old Mrs. Lin was not prepared for her son: "Your father is close to your third cousin on weekdays, so he should have told your father about this. Thanks to him, otherwise your elder brother would not be able to pass the Jinshi exam."
Lin Chengzhi was speechless.
Old Mrs. Lin asked about the Gu family: "I heard that Old Mr. Gu's illegitimate son came to the door to ask for his ancestors and to inherit his ancestors. Is this true?"
Lin Chengzhi shook his head and said, "No. That man is a liar, pretending to be Mr. Gu's son, and he wants to cheat the Gu family's property."
Old Mrs. Lin said: "It's also that Tang is too domineering. If Old Mr. Gu had asked Old Mr. Gu to take a concubine, he wouldn't have desolate now, so Old Mr. Gu doesn't even have blood."
Lin Chengzhi didn't like to listen to this: "Mom, why didn't you leave your blood? Are Qingshu and An An not human?"
Old Mrs. Lin waved her hand and said, "After or later, the girls are all from other people's families. I'll bring these two girls back in a few days."
Lin Chengzhi said: "Mom, it takes money to bring Qingshu and An An back to eat and wear. Why not leave the two sisters in Gu's house and go to pick them up when they are older?"
"How can our Lin family keep the children? "
Lin Chengzhi is now talking nonsense: "We are looking at the pitiful old lady Gu, so that Qingshu and An An stay in the Gu family."
Old Mrs. Lin said after hearing this, "That's not OK. Even if we eat braised vegetables, our children cannot be raised by others."
She wished that Old Lady Gu would die soon, so how could she feel sorry for her!
Lin Chengzhi felt that he would write a letter to Lin Chengyu and asked him to write a letter to persuade Mrs. Lin.
After talking about the Gu family, Old Mrs. Lin reiterated the old saying: "Chengzhi, when will you move back?"
Lin Chengzhi shook his head and said, "Mom, I think this is good. Youdao is far away and smelly. You live together and make noise all day long. After separation, the relationship becomes harmonious."
Old Mrs. Lin was anxious: "How can this be the same? Living together means a family, and separation means two families. Chengzhi, your elder brother is now a Jinshi master, and your second brother is now a scholar. At this time, you three brothers work together to make the Lin family prosperous."
Lin Chengzhi said deliberately: "Mom, it's enough for the Lin family to be prosperous with the eldest and second brothers. It doesn't matter whether I have it or not."
Old Mrs. Lin said, "You three brothers are all equally important. Your father said that Chengyu went on a career in the officialdom and taught and educated people. You stayed at home to manage the common affairs and stabilize the rear. In the future, the Lin family will flourish and you will also have a contribution."
What about the credit? I am afraid that the second wife will call him around like a human being at that time.
Lin Chengzhi didn't want to talk about this matter anymore: "Mom, my brother has passed the Jinshi exam now. I'll come back to help me with the help of the family. As for moving back, don't say anything again. How can I live together after the family is separated?"
Seeing that Mrs. Lin was still trying to say something again, Lin Chengzhi said, "Mom, I don't want to be pointed at the head and scolded me for being useless. Besides, I have had enough of those noisy days, and I will never move back. Mom, I will go back first if I have nothing else."
Before Old Mrs. Lin could speak, Lin Chengzhi took a big step forward and walked out.
Old Mrs. Lin was angry and anxious: "Why is this child so stubborn!"
They were all the broom stars of Weishi. If it weren't for her family now, she was still neatly arranged.
Lin Chengzhi walked out of the room and saw a young woman standing at the door: "Xiaoxiao, why are you back?"
Chen Xiaoxiao lowered her head and said, "Third brother, I heard that my elder brother passed the Jinshi, so I came back to take a look."
Old Mrs. Lin gave birth to three sons and one daughter, but the Lin family suffered a lot of trouble as soon as her youngest daughter was born. First, Lin Chengyu got a serious illness and almost couldn't be saved. Before he could recover, Lin Chengzhong broke his leg again, and then Lin Chengzhi fell into the pond and almost drowned.
Seeing that something was wrong, Old Mrs. Lin quickly asked the fairy. As a result, the fairy said that her youngest daughter was incompatible with her three sons and she had to send her away. Otherwise, her three sons would be killed by her.
Old Mrs. Lin has always favored boys over girls. After hearing that if she keeps her daughter, she would kill her three sons, how could she dare to keep her?
Through an acquaintance, Mrs. Lin gave her little daughter to a couple in the town who had not been married for five years and had not given birth. The couple was quite generous and had never abused Chen Xiaoxiao even though they had their own children. Of course, it was not much better, but they didn't beat her up and scold her while hungry.
Chen Xiaoxiao looks like Lin Chengyu and looks very outstanding. In order to get more betrothal gifts, the couple surnamed Chen married her to Ma Duocai, the only son who had a lame leg on the grocery store owner in the town. She gave birth to a son at the beginning of this year and lived a bad life.
Lin Chengzhi nodded and said, "Mom is in the house, you can go in."
Chen Xiaoxiao stood at the door and refused to go in.
Lin Chengzhi felt a little distressed when he saw this, and said to Zhang: "You bring Leshu back first, and I will bring Rudie and Lewei back later."
When the old lady Lin saw Chen Xiaoxiao stunned, she said the same thing as Lin Chengzhi: "Why are you here?"
Chen Xiaoxiao said expressionlessly: "I heard that Brother Lin passed the Jinshi exam, so I came over to express my joy."
If she hadn't been forced by her in-laws and husband, she would not have stepped into the Lin family's door even if she died.
Now that Lin Chengyu and his three brothers have married and had children, they are not afraid that Chen Xiaoxiao will defeat them again. Old Mrs. Lin is not shy about her: "You are determined, and you will leave after dinner later!"
Chen Xiaoxiao was not willing to have dinner at the Lin family, but before she could speak, her husband Ma Duocai responded with a smile.
Putting down the pastry in his hand, Ma Duocai said, "This is the red bean cake made by Xiaoxiao personally. My mother-in-law will try it later."
Old Mrs. Lin nodded and said, "You are intent."
Lin Chengzhi looked at Chen Xiaoxiao's hands holding the hem of the skirt and said, "Mom, didn't you just say you were sleepy? I took my brother-in-law and sister out, so you can have a good rest."
