Qingping Years (8)

I came back in half an hour, so I had arrived. Lin Yutong hurriedly sent someone to find the Fourth Master to come back.

Lin Yutong lifted the curtain and asked outside, "Who is idle?"

Jinba rushed out, "Mom, I'll go! I'll go."

It was quite strange to be called by a child she didn't know. She didn't move, but she could see that Lao Ba was a person who couldn't sit still, so she smiled: "Then go quickly, just say that the master is back soon, please ask him to come back soon."

Jin Ba responded and rushed out.

Lin Yutong looked at his back and thought to herself that it was not too late for this child to practice martial arts.

These children don’t have new clothes to change, but Lin Yutong called her children, so she quickly cleaned up. She said that she would prefer to treat her adopted son and daughter at home, but outsiders always think of such children as half a slave. It’s the same as when she can call herself and the fourth master and the fourth master, but she can’t call her eldest and third uncles at home.

There are only two clothes, so it’s fine to change them no matter how hard you change them. Just clean them up quickly.

After finishing the tidying up, Lin Yutong coaxed the clothes that the Fourth Master wanted to change to the stove, and asked Bai Shi to go back to the house and wait to change her clothes for Brother Kun.

When I turned my face, I realized that Sister Lin had gone back at some point. So, the big girl had to clean up before she could come out.

The Fourth Master came back quickly, raised the curtain and went straight to the bedroom. Several children called him dad and he just responded. Lin Yutong took the clothes and chased him in, and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong?"

The Fourth Master looked heavy, "I have been walking around the village today and I am a little evasive to us. I originally wanted to buy something, but every family said that there was not much... I asked Jin Yi to inquire, but I don't know where the demon wind came from, saying that I wanted to transfer people to guard the border..."

Lin Yutong's face changed. The border guard was to go further north. From ancient times to the present, the population of migrating such imperial organs has never stopped. Just like Yunnan in the Ming Dynasty, most of the Han people were migrated, which stabilized the border. But now... can you still move north?

She asked, "It's someone who is stumbling behind the scenes..."

It is hard to leave the hometown, and it is easy for them to settle down here, and the industry is here. Is it possible to ask others to abandon their families and leave their businesses now? Not to mention that they are all from the Jin family, even if they are not implicated, they still complain.

"No wonder Dafang never said when he would come back, but now he arrived." This place has special significance for the Jin family. Dafang is unwilling to leave... The future of his family is afraid that it is worrying.

If these people don’t want to be guarded by the border, they will naturally have to show off their cars and horses, such as keeping a distance from their own families.

The Fourth Master circled around the house: "When will it take for this retreat again and again?" Moreover, the old and young people, and the weather outside, he couldn't stand it even when he came back. What should he do if he asked them to do?

Lin Yutong frowned. It’s not that you can’t leave, but that such a heaven can really kill you.

As he spoke, he changed his clothes first. He then called out outside, saying that the person had already entered the village.

The fourth master said to Tongtong: "The door is cold, the female family will go to the old lady to wait..."

Then the Fourth Master left with a few sons, probably with Jin Kuang and the Third Master to greet him. Lin Yutong, with her son and wife, handed over the family to Jin Yi to watch, and then walked out.

Jin Yi looked reluctant but stopped. Lin Yutong didn't care about it and just asked him to rest assured.

Sister Xuan followed her mother and whispered: "Is something wrong?" She felt that her parents' expressions were not right.

Lin Yutong shook her head, without explanation, and just told her, "Help your sister-in-law."

When she left the door, Sun waited at the door. Her eyes were still red, dark and heavy. Obviously, this was because she didn't sleep well.

Now, walking side by side with Lin Yutong, he said, "In the past, people from my hometown always came to my house. At that time, we met as soon as we wanted to see, and we didn't want to see it. Now, we have to wait for the greeting."

At that time, can you know what the person from my hometown meant? It was handled by Jin Kuang himself. Otherwise, why wouldn't you even know about the grandmother on it? You can see what you want, and you can't see what you don't want to see. Nonsense! People sincerely didn't let you see it.

I really don’t want to talk to Sun. This person’s mouth is full of negative energy. He is thinking about the prosperity of the Hou’s Mansion all day long... But to be honest, you are a vain son of the Hou’s Mansion and will not be able to share your own life sooner or later. How much can you share your family property?

Because she didn't want to listen to Sun's vernacular, she took a few steps faster, met with the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who came out of the big room, then took Xu and Aunt Wu and went to the old lady's yard together.

Sun also asked Xiao Xu: "Brother and Rui Ge'er have also gone?"

Xiao Xu nodded, "Why don't you go back home?"

Sun was dissatisfied: "If you are sick, you should be considerate. This is the family's flesh and blood. Poor Brother Lang'er was weak and was also grabbed by his father."

Aunt Wu turned around and looked at Sun sternly. This daughter-in-law was happy that day, but now she looked at her, it was really unreasonable.

Sun turned his head aside and did not look at Aunt Wu. He used to respect it because his parents-in-law were good to this aunt, but now, the aunt is the aunt, and he is a servant. Just like the two aunts in her family, they are not good things.

But he didn't expect to arrive at the main courtyard, but saw Kim Boyi and Kim Ki-rui both at the old lady. The old lady explained, "If you are sick, you have to take care of it. Don't be so disgusted."

She invited the person back.

After seeing each other's courtesy, they all returned to their seats and sat down.

After waiting for a cup of tea, noisy footsteps came from outside, and then the curtain was lifted up. The man walking in, and without saying a word, he knelt in front of the old lady, "My son has gone out and has not returned yet, so he asked his mother to follow him."

Lin Yutong stood up with Daliu and looked at the person who came in. After finding the Fourth Master in the crowd, she breathed a sigh of relief and looked back at the man kneeling in front of the hall.

This life is like a leopard head, a ring of eyes, a tiger's back, a bear's waist, and is completely different from Jin Kuang. This is the master Jin Ji.

After looking at it, the Fourth Master had returned to his position and stood beside Lin Yutong, and several children were also standing behind them.

At this moment, I heard the old lady shouting: "...I have worked hard all the way, so I got up and talked, and asked those incompetent people to come in with their wives, and to recognize people."

Lin Yutong was looking for the eldest wife, thinking to herself, why didn't this eldest wife come in with the eldest master?

As soon as this thought flashed over, I heard a cry outside: "...I can't live, I can't live, I can't live,... The foundation that I have accumulated over half my life... is all over..."

Everyone in the room changed their colors. Who is this talking about?

Jin Kuang and Xu, how did they ever accept this?

The master Jin Ji stepped out, and heard it clearly inside, and then it stopped outside.

But Lin Yutong and the Fourth Master looked at each other, but if they really wanted to say that the eldest wife was Hu Qin in front of others, how could the person run out?

After all, I still don’t want to live in the mansion, but Kim Ji is smart and unwilling to break up. This is forcing my family to leave.

Sure enough, Jin Ji came in again and knelt in front of the old lady: "The son was not in good condition and apologized to his mother. Liao did not know the general, was disrespectful to his elders, was dissatisfied with his brothers, was unkind to his nephew... His son would divorce her now!"

Have her divorced?

"She is your relative's cousin. Her father, your uncle, saved your life. Even though he knew he could not get married, why bother to say this?" The old lady sighed, "As soon as she opened her mouth, she said she would divorce her wife. You are forcing your brother and your nephew to stay at home."

Lin Yutong couldn't understand the old lady. In her opinion, the old lady was definitely not an ordinary person, so how could she be controlled by her adopted son and daughter-in-law?

The Fourth Master held Tongtong down and told her to sit down and not move.

Then Jin Kuang stood up and said, "Mother, we can't blame our brother and sister-in-law for this. It was originally because we had implicated the big house."

Jin Ji looked ashamed: "Second brother is going to be a brother..." He shouted outside, "You bastards are all in..."

Then seven or eight men came in, each of them similar to Jin Ji, and looked very majestic.

Jin Ji suddenly pulled out the dagger and stabbed it on his thigh, and the blood rubbed it out, "Who said he was leaving? He said he was afraid of being implicated... Let me do this for me first."

As he said that, he looked around the hall. The sons' faces remained unchanged, which was normal.

Looking at the second room again, what a person Jin Kuang was. He was silent and did not feel surprised. But he saw that Xu was like a Bodhisattva, with his eyes closed, as if he hadn't seen it at all. The eldest nephew's family was a pair of immortals, but at this time the father and son were drooping their eyes and could not see the emotions. The two women only care about men, and they didn't care how much blood you had shed. The third room was completely scared, with a stiff face and no one moved, but they were a bit frightened. The fourth room was the most interesting. One of the couple was holding the other's hand and playing with them, while the children stood behind, looking at it with great interest. The youngest boy was still gestured with his hands, as if imitating his previous move of drawing his sword.

He withdrew his gaze, narrowed his eyes, and then looked to Jin Kuang's direction, "Second brother, don't ask brother to be that unrighteous person."

Jin Kuang was once the imperial teacher. When he saw that the limelight was wrong, he immediately withdrew. Such a person, he felt a clear idea of ​​his family's little tricks and hurriedly answered: "Why did your brother say that? I moved in, so I just waited for my brother to come back and meet him. I never left the truth. Now I met him, I have a reunion dinner tonight, and I will leave early tomorrow morning."

As he said that, he just looked at the old lady.

The old lady lowered her eyelids, and after a long time, she said two words: "Okay!"

"Mother!" A trace of astonishment flashed across Jin Ji's face. This surprise was true. He probably didn't expect this.

So what does the previous attitude mean?

The old lady looked up at Jin Kuang: "Your father was appointed as a marquis and came back to buy an estate for me... My dowry was lost because of the war. He promised me to buy a copy for me. Later, he became rich, but I still remember what I said to me. I didn't want it at that time, and he had to give it to me... Just like that, I still have some industry in my hands..." As he said that, he looked at Jin Ji, "Do you have no objection?"

Jin Ji frowned: "Mother, my son doesn't have the intention to drive his younger brother away."

The old lady waved her hand: "I know what you think. This behavior is just to make you embarrassed. If you take them in, you will make sure that you have paid off the Buddha's reading of you over the years." She laughed and said, "If you can make the favor of the Hou Mansion, then how can you pay back the favor of me, the old lady, to you? Let me guess what you think... You know that the county government is under pressure from some people above to make Wending Mountain move north... The clan members do not agree, and no one wants. And in the family, no one is willing except you, a family of old and young.

So what about you? What will you do? You will make an amazing decision... For the kindness of the day, for the old lady, I will resist the opposition and leave people behind. So, you will keep them, ask them to bear your affection, let them live with you... Let them not dare to mention the word "kindness" in front of you... So, you will suppress your wife and children inside, and suppress your tribe brothers outside, and then you will spend money to clear your relationship, and let Wendingshan live a peaceful life as before. It is you who have the same upset... You raised me, and I know how many intestines you have!"

As she said that, she got up and called Jin Yiqian, "Pack up your things and leave immediately." Then she scolded Jin Kuang, "Will you stay here for dinner if you don't leave?"

ah?

I don’t leave any time for reaction, so I just leave.

The old lady said, "Take all the things I give you, and I bought them all with my private money. And... I went to invite the tablets of the ancestors and the clans, let's go together."

Jin Ji knelt down with a 'pop', and kowtowed: "Mother, if your son has such thoughts, he will make his son beaten to pieces. He will not die well, and he will not be reborn after death..."

The Fourth Master went over and helped Jin Ji up, "Don't be like this... I originally planned to take advantage of my grandmother's dowry in Zhuangzi. Today I went to see it specifically. The back mountain of Zhuangzi is the tomb of the Jin family. No matter what, the title in the family is gone, I'm sorry to my grandfather. My father said before that he would stay in front of his grandfather's grave for three years to atone for his sins... We children, we should not watch our father live alone on the mountain... we must go with us. We waited for three years to finish guarding and then came back again. The grandmother was just angry that our uncle didn't care about his health..."

The old lady snorted coldly with this sentence, "I was not the mother who gave birth to him, and my body, hair and skin were not given by me..."

What does that sentence mean? The body and hair are affected by parents and dare not damage them. This is the beginning of filial piety.

You gave yourself a knife in front of your mother. Can you blame the old lady for getting angry? No! Because you don’t treat the old lady like your own mother.

Jin Ji admitted his mistake again, and Jin Kuang hurriedly asked someone to bandage the wound.

Lin Yutong helped the old lady back and sat back: "...If you want to leave, there is no hurry. It is all for you to leave tomorrow or leave later. If you want to follow, you are afraid that you will also be thinking about your grandfather... Then, let's leave tomorrow. Just as our master said, live for three years and come back again."

Even if there is a rift, it is not the time to turn against each other.

Besides, is it really necessary to turn against each other?

Jin Ji was adopted, but he had many brothers, but he is still alive now. The children and nephews below are all over Wending Mountain. The adopted ones are not clean with their biological parents. No matter how they feel, they will feel uncomfortable.

I'm afraid that the old lady and Jin Ji are also hiding their minds.

These two people are not as kind as mother and son, but are filial to each other. Instead, they are like a relationship of mercy and filial to each other.

The old lady said 'um' and Lin Yutong helped her back to the inner room. As soon as she entered the room, there was no angry face on the old lady's face. She sat calmly on the chair, "You go, pack up your things, and leave early tomorrow morning."

Lin Yutong didn't ask, answered and came out.

The Fourth Master followed Jin Kuang and Jin Ji in the hall. The bad things before seemed to have never happened. Lin Yutong came out and looked at the Fourth Master, then whispered to Xu, and then her mother and her husband retreated together.
To be continued...
