Chapter 148 Blessings
It's chirping, and the evening breeze is cool.
Wu Xiang gently opened the door and looked at Lu Yan, who was sitting under the lamp reading, and said, "Are you reading again? I said, do you want it not to be like this all the time? No one like you is the one who is about to take the exam.
Lu Yan looked up at him quietly for a moment and exhaled gently, "I'm not as smart as you. If you don't work hard, how can Lou beat you?
Wu Xiang stagnate and then smiled, "We are not taking the exam at the same time. How can we calculate it? Study three years more than me, even if you beat me in the end, do you think it's fair?"
Lu Yan said lightly, "There are high and low talents, and there is no fairness in the first place. Life is still very long,
I'm not in a hurry. Even if you win the champion, don't think you will win me. There will be a future.
Wu Xiang stood for a moment and laughed: "Yes, the days are still long." Then put a few plain white moì in front of him: "Wake up for you! Be careful that your eyes are so bad that you can't see the list clearly in the future!"
Lu Yan smiled, picked up the few Mo Lì in his hand, looked at the light for a moment, got up and took an empty teacup and put it in clear water: "I remember that there is only one place in this station where there is Mo Lì. Who helped you pinch it?"
Wu Bao lay down to his ** and said lazily, "My cousin and four sisters." After a while, he suddenly smiled and said, "Lu Erlang, you are very blessed. I'm so lucky."
Lu Yan slowly looked back at him and said, "What?"
Wu Xiang's eyes stared at the blue-gray tent of the post station: "I said, it's lucky that you can get married to your fourth sister. It's so lucky. I always thought that you were worthy of Lin Wu or Lin Liu. The result was beyond my expectation. There are few people who can share tea, and they also know how to manage accounts and do business. I don't know how my fourth sister was born. If she is a man, she will be more powerful. "Maybe we both have to give in."
Lu Yan squeezed his lips slightly: "I'm quite blessed."
Wu Xiang got up and patted him on the shoulder, turned around and walked out: "If you want to surpass me, you have to work harder!"
Typical Wu Xiang's arrogance.
Lu Yan looked at the few Mo lìhuā raised in the teacup in silence. After a long time, he firmly stretched out his hand and continued to read the book.
Wu's funeral was extremely lively, and the monk who recited sutra in the courtyard had a bright head, which made people dazzled. Tao Fengtang, who wears filial piety, reported to Master Wu and others one by one: "The Buddha has been doing it for 49 days. Shoumu is from Nanmu, and the cemetery is also good..." In a word, the people who walked to the Wu family said that the Tao family tried their best to bury the Wu family.
Lin Jinyin was very thin, and Yang and others said, "I didn't know the specific numbers until the end. Because my mother-in-law had already ordered me, the funeral products should not be too thick. It is roughly estimated that the cemetery, birthday materials, Buddha affairs and funeral goods add up to about 70,000 guan."
When Yang and others heard this, they all said that the funeral was decent. Mrs. Wu Er wiped her tears and sighed: "My aunt has long known that she was not good, so she was busy sending Fengxiang out at the beginning of the year. I have never seen anyone who is more thoughtful and more thoughtful than her.
This word won the unanimous approval of the daughters of the Wu family, and they began to praise the Wu family one after another.
Lin Jinyin breathed a light breath, which was over. Thick burial has become a trend, and marriage is about wealth. For this reason, many families have gone bankrupt. Within two years, the Tao family "married a wife and had children, married two daughters in a row, and held funerals. The cost is really amazing.
This is still a rich family, and I have already had savings." Otherwise, I'm afraid I can't support it.
After all, it's mother and daughter, brother and sister, Tao's feeling is completely different from that of Yang's and others. When he heard the words, he took a breath of cold air, but it was not easy to say anything in public, so he had to stroke Lin Jinyin's arm and shed tears and said, "Why are you so
Lin Jinyin smiled extremely tiredly and didn't say anything. My mother-in-law is gone. "She is the eldest daughter-in-law. The old and young man in the family, so she is the only one woman who manages the house and takes care of them." She is also responsible for the arrival and sending of the women's family members. When the spirit kneels down and fulfills filial piety, she has
Lin Jinrong didn't have any nonsense. He directly took the badger man from the wet nurse's arms, smelled the familiar milk fragrance in his arms and kissed him fiercely, and then asked Lin Jinyin, "I'm here to help. If you have anything to do, sister, just tell me." This is the main purpose of her coming to Qingzhou.
Dow has never experienced a funeral or carried such a heavy burden as Lin Jinyin. I don't know, or I haven't experienced how difficult it is. Lin Jinrong clearly remembered that in that year, when Master Lu was gone, the Lu family invited a thousand monks to do Buddhist things for a whole hundred days. In Buddhist affairs alone, he spent 100,000 yuan, let alone other expenses. That is, after that, the Lu family began to decline.
At that time, Mrs. Lu was ill and couldn't afford to fall ill. The daughters of the Lu family had to take care of the patients. They had to greet all kinds of relatives who came to mourn and beat the autumn wind to eat and drink. They had to go to the front of the spirit to filial piety and kneel down and kow After being tossed around for a hundred days and finally going to the funeral, even if he was as strong as the Song family, he was tossed to lose a lot of weight. Regardless of Lin Yuzhen and Tu, he fell on ** and did not get up. It took nearly half a month to recover. After a long time, she still felt drifting when she walked. As long as she tasted it once, she didn't want to taste it again.
Lin Jinrong's wish was wonderful, but Lin Jinyin really didn't dare to let her take charge casually, so he gave her a task: "Just take good care of the badger for me.
He is the one I care about the most. It seemed that Lin Jinrong would not refuse. Lin Jinyin said in one breath, "The badger is a little unbehaved these days, and I don't know if I'm too busy and don't care much about him. The wet nurse takes good care of her, but she still needs to be stared at"
Lin Jinrong's arm suddenly weighed a thousand pounds. In fact, she knew how to watch the child raise the child and coax the child, but she smiled with difficulty and stuffed the badger into Tao's arms: "I won't. This job is too difficult. Change it to a simple one, such as letting me take care of the kitchen Otherwise, it's the same for me to do some chores for you.
Young girls like to tease children, but it's normal to be afraid of taking care of children. Lin Jinyin and Tao didn't take it to heart. Tao's big bag said, "Okay, the badger follows his grandmother. Be good."
The badger Lang, who was passed on twice in a moment, looked at the strangers in the room and cried loudly. Lin Jinyin quickly took him over and hugged him in his arms to comfort him softly. Gradually, the badger mang stopped crying. He lay in Lin Jinyin's arms with tears in his small hands and looked at others curious
Lin Jinrong looked at Lin Jinyin's mother and son silently for a moment, turned around and quietly walked out of the door, and walked unconsciously along the path. Litchi saw the situation and quickly followed out.
There are fewer and fewer girls in the yard. Litchi pulled Lin Jinrong's sleeve and said, "Girl, why did you get here?"
Lin Jinrong raised his head and found that he unconsciously walked in front of Wu's house. Seeing that Litchi was a little afraid, he couldn't help laughing and said, "What are you afraid of? My uncle is the best person. After saying that, he walked to the door and was ready to salute, but he saw that the door of the room was empty, and there seemed to be a sound inside.
Usually, if the owner of the house is gone, the house will be locked and left to be cleaned up in the future. In such a situation, it is likely that there will be unclean servants fishing in troubled waters. Lin Jinrong and Litchi looked at each other, took a step back, and boldly shouted, "Who is in there?"
, "Is it a chican? Come in." What came out of the room was Tao Shunqin's voice.
Lin Jinrong breathed a sigh of relief and pushed the door in: "uncle." At this time, it was almost dusk, and the afterglow of the sunset slanted through the window, and the room was half hazy and half gray. Tao Shunqin sat alone in front of the stage, looked at the bronze mirror used by the Wu family before his death, and whispered, "A group of people, just ask how much money was spent on the funeral. I don't want to hear it."
Lin Jinrong did not answer, but went to the soft couch in front of the window and sat down and listened to him quietly.
In her opinion, the Wu family may not be sad, but the world is like this. Since people are dead, they should pay more attention to their future. Tao Shunqin may not understand this truth, but it's just because the pain of losing his wife is too heavy. He only needs someone to listen, and he doesn't need to be persuaded.
"You don't know, my aunt, what your aunt has become and how much she has suffered. I've been thinking about it. I want to give it to Feng Juxiang's daughter-in-law, but I'm worried that [I] Sometimes when I look at her so uncomfortable in the future, I can't help thinking that she should be relieved as soon as possible. But the thought of me being left alone makes me feel even more uncomfortable. What if there is more money for the funeral? I want her to live and use this money.
"Wow, your aunt is really a good person, especially cherishing blessings"
The sky gradually darkened, and the old and the young in the room still kept their previous appearance. The old man said in a flat tone, and the little one listened quietly and did not move. Somehow, Litchi suddenly felt a little hairy and didn't dare to interrupt, so he had to ask Lin Jinrong in a low voice, "Girl, do you want to hold the lamp?" It's been a while since I came out. I'm afraid my wife will look for it.
Tao Shunqin seemed to wake up from a dream. He touched the sickle from the stage, lit the candlestick, looked back at Lin Jinrong and said kindly, "Go, uncle is fine."
Lin Jinrong also stood up and whispered, "Ouncle, my aunt is also reluctant to part with you. She must hope that we can all get better and better.
Tao Shunqin smiled miserably and said in a loud voice, "I forgot to ask how the business of your shop is? If you had known that the court would let go of these kinds of incense, you should have put in more when you put in Muxiang and cloves.
Lin Jinrong's heart trembled and lowered his eyes and said, "I'm lucky enough to maintain the business of the shop."
"It's good to be content. It will get better in the future. Tao Shunqin was silent for a moment, and he said, "Nianna, thanks to you, my uncle has made a lot of money, otherwise only these major events in the family, plus mine and Fengju's marriage, will make your eldest cousin die."
Lin Jinrong's heart was warm. He looked at Tao Shunqin and said softly, "Ouncle, that's just a coincidence. What I can do is too little compared with what you did. I just hope you all have a good life. My sister is too busy alone. Let me help do some trivial things, which is also my intention.
Tao Shunqin said gently, "Okay."
I,
