Chapter 178
Lin Xiazhi and Yang Yusheng set up a small table in Lin Xiazhi's room, and Lin Huzi and Li Xiu were in the main room.
Li Xiu and Lin Huzi didn't know what it was like to eat a meal. Before Li Xiu had time to talk to Lin Huzi, Xiao Nian Gao woke up in the room, and he went in to feed Xiao Nian Gao.
When Li Xiu put down the tired little rice cake to sleep again and returned to the main room to prepare for dinner, Lin Huzi remained in the same posture as when he left. Li Xiu sighed, and the two ate dinner in silence.
Lin Chengzu happened to be stuck in an accident in Lishui County today, so he was delayed for half an hour, and it was almost dark when he came back.
"Chengzu, have you eaten yet?" Yang Yusheng and Lin Xiazhi walked back and forth between the front yard and the backyard after eating, when they heard the sound of a carriage at the door, they went out to see that Lin Chengzu had returned.
Lin Chengzu was a little tired after working all day today, but when he saw Yang Yusheng approaching, he collected his expression and answered him softly: "I haven't eaten yet, I'm rushing all the way back, I'm afraid the city gate will be closed."
From Lishui County to Jiangning County, they had to pass through the county seat of Jiangning County, otherwise they had to take a small road, which was not safe when it was dark, so they rushed all the way back without any delay.
Without Yang Yusheng's instructions, Lin Xiaoqiu took the initiative to go to the kitchen to serve food, and Yang Yusheng walked to the main room with him: "Let's go to the main room to eat first, the kitchen has left some food for you..."
Some unpleasant things happened at home this afternoon, let Chengzu talk to him after dinner.
Lin Huzi was dragged back to their house by Li Xiu after having dinner before. Lin Chengzu didn't see them when he entered the main room and didn't care.
After he finished eating, Lin Xiazhi came over and told him what happened in the afternoon.
Seriously speaking, among the three brothers, the one who hates the main house the most should be Lin Chengzu. He is the oldest and sensible earlier.
Lin Xiazhi, the impostor, was actually just annoyed by them, and if he really annoyed him, it would be a big deal to break off the relationship with the main house regardless of his reputation.
Lin Chengzong was young and forgetful, and the past events left only a few traces in his mind, and he was only a little afraid of the sloppy youngest Lin.
After Lin Chengzu heard Lin Xiazhi's words, his fists on the table were clenched instantly. If he hadn't taken into account that Yang Yusheng was still by his side, he would have changed his face a long time ago.
Trying to restrain himself from making a hideous look, Lin Chengzu said to Yang Yusheng: "Brother Yu, you go back to the house first, I will talk to Brother Xia for a while."
Yang Yusheng left obediently. As Sun Fulang, it was really difficult to discuss this matter in front of him.
"It's really deceiving!" Lin Chengzu slapped the table angrily, "They dare to threaten Zong'er's future!"
"Brother, don't be angry, do you still remember how Lin Dabao got his childhood?" Lin Xiazhi calmed down now, and persuaded Lin Chengzu.
"Brother Xia, if you don't tell me, I'd have forgotten it, and I don't know how the youngest has the nerve to lick his face and say Zong'er." Only then did Lin Chengzu realize that Lin Dabao was also a child.
"Brother, the youngest would never think of using Zong'er as a threat. This time, uncle and uncle should be behind his back. Uncle is stupid and greedy. Every time he only sees a little profit in front of him. Now that uncle is out of prison Like a useless person, I don't know what ideas he will think about at home, we have to be careful, uncle." Lin Xiazhi said bluntly.
After the new year, old man Lin has been sick intermittently, and Uncle Lin has no one to suppress him, so he became bold and began to plot against them.
"What does father think?" Lin Chengzu asked.
Lin Xiazhi wasn't sure what Lin Huzi was thinking. He pretended to be angry in the afternoon, not knowing what Li Xiu and Lin Huzi would discuss.
Without waiting for Lin Chengzu and Lin Xia to think too much, Li Xiu and Lin Huzi took the initiative to sit down in the main room.
Lin Xiazhi observed Lin Huzi carefully, and he found that the gloom and inferiority in Lin Huzi's eyebrows seemed to have faded. It's hard to say how much the change has changed, but it seems that he woke him up?
"Father, what?" Lin Xiazhi resumed his expressionless face in the afternoon, making it difficult to guess his emotions.
Lin Chengzu was calmer now than before, but he didn't look good on Lin Huzi and Li Xiu, and called them indifferently: "Daddy, huh."
"Chengzu, Brother Xia, I discussed with your father this afternoon. We will not take the initiative to talk to the main house in the future. In the future, when your youngest comes to ask for money, we will not give them casually. It is not just money. We will not decide on our own if they need our help in the future." Li Xiu told the results of his discussion with Lin Huzi.
"Father, you also agree to this?" Lin Chengzu was a little surprised.
No matter how much Lin Chengzu persuaded him when the family first separated, Lin Huzi thought that he was the son of Lin Laotou and Lin Laotou, and he should take care of the two elders.
"Well, think it over." Lin Huzi said, "Your grandpa is sick now, and the youngest is confused, so you really can't let them do it."
"Even if grandpa is in good health, I don't see the youngest doing things so clearly." Lin Chengzu didn't give them a chance to be sloppy.
Lin Chengzu would say this, and Lin Xiazhi agreed. Of course he knew that old man Lin was also partial, but Lin Huzi couldn't see clearly.
Lin Xiazhi didn't really care about what Lin Huzi said. He had heard from Hu Langzhong that old man Lin was suffering from both blood loss and stagnation in his heart. He would recover when the lump in his heart disappeared.
Old man Lin became ill after Uncle Lin was imprisoned. What happened at the beginning was unclear, and now he has not announced what happened to Uncle Lin. Also, Old Man Lin probably discovered that the money in his family was wrong at that time, and found out about Lin Dabao. Children cheating on exams.If he doesn't yell at Lin Dabao to study every day now, the so-called heart knot is not so easy to heal, and this disease probably won't get better so quickly.
Lin Huzi and Li Xiu didn't know these things, only Lin Xiazhi and Lin Chengzu knew in their hearts, he pulled down the corner of Lin Chengzu's clothes on the table, and his face softened a little: "It's good that Dad and Ah Mo figure it out."
Lin Xiazhi's complexion improved, and the restrained feelings on Lin Huzi and Li Xiu dissipated a little, and they felt relieved.
No matter how the main house of the Lin family is the blood relatives of the Lin family, although the things they did are disgusting, they are not so excessive in the eyes of outsiders. Naturally, the Lin family can't do anything excessive, so they can only use the same method to disgust them back. It has to be aboveboard so that outsiders can't find fault.
Li Xiu had seen how Lin Xiazhi dealt with youngest Lin. It was nothing more than to let old man Lin know what youngest Lin had done, and let old man Lin, who wanted to save face, take care of youngest Lin.
So this time, Li Xiu offered to send some daily necessities to the main house, such as summer clothes, freshly harvested rice, oil, salt and firewood.
After hearing this, Lin Xiazhi added: "Let's do it according to Ah Mo's idea, and add another basket of copper coins, five thousand coins will do. From now on, we will give all the filial silver to the grandpa and the youngest in the copper plate, and only show the silver. If it doesn’t have enough weight, the youngest may be dissatisfied.”
Before the youngest Lin made a fuss at home, Lin Xiazhi asked Xiangbo to give five thousand copper coins to youngest Lin just because he was angry at the time to make Lin Huzi feel uncomfortable, but now Lin Xiazhi's decision is to slap the main house in the face.
"Brother Xia—" Li Xiu said in embarrassment, glanced at Lin Xiazhi, then turned to look at Lin Huzi.
As they promised before, Lin Huzi did not help the people in the main house. Seeing Li Xiu's embarrassed look, Lin Huzi said directly, "Just listen to Brother Xia."
The next afternoon, when the villagers were not busy in the fields, several members of the Lin family set off from the village with a donkey cart to the main house of the Lin family.
A basket of copper plates, two bags of rice, a bolt of fine linen, a bolt of fine cotton cloth, a pot of oil and salt, a pot of soy sauce and vinegar, two cuts of meat, a basket of fresh vegetables, and some special food of the Lin family. car.
The travelers included Lin Huzi, Xiangbo and two strong men.
Walking along the way, others saw them making so many things, and they all ran over to ask questions.
Xiangbo knew that Lin Huzi was not easy to speak, so he stood up and answered for the master: "Yesterday afternoon, the old man came to the house. Our husband thought that now that summer is here, they can't serve the old man, so we gave the old man a visit." They sent some daily necessities to show their filial piety."
Xiangbo's words sound nice, but the basket of copper plates is placed in the most conspicuous position of the donkey cart, and anyone with eyes can see it. This is not a delivery of daily necessities. It is clear that Lin Laoxiao went there again yesterday afternoon. The Lin family asked for money.
For gossip, I knew last night that when Xiangbo sent youngest Lin back to the main house of the Lin family in the afternoon, he gave a basketful of copper coins.
What was thinking in their hearts would definitely not be said on the face, everyone praised Lin Huzi and Li Xiu for their filial piety, saying that old man Lin and youngest Lin were very lucky, and their sons and husbands still miss them after they separated.
Without exchanging pleasantries with the villagers for too long, Xiang Bo found out that old man Lin would come out to bask in the sun for a short time every afternoon, and they had to rush to Lin's house during this time, otherwise they would be blocked by the youngest Lin or Uncle Lin again.
There was no delay along the way. When Lin Huzi and the others passed by, Old Man Lin was indeed basking in the sun in the courtyard of the main house of the Lin family.
Xiangbo stepped forward first: "Master."
During this period of time, old man Lin was in good health. When he saw Lin Huzi bringing his servants over, a glimmer of joy flashed in his eyes: "Second brother, you are here."
"Father, I'm here to bring you and Ah Mo some things." Lin Huzi lowered his head slightly to talk to Old Man Lin at the door.
Old man Lin was used to Lin Huzi always doing this and he didn't care. Looking at Lin Huzi who finally came back, he wanted them to come in and have a sit.I used to think that Lin Huzi was stupid, but now I think it's good for him to be like this.
He is very disappointed with the sophomore family now, but fortunately, he still has a filial second son.That is, the third son hardly ever returns to Linjiacun, and the second son's family helps to bring back the filial money to the main house every month.
