They said they would wait...but there were dozens of them waiting in the courtyard. The scene was not pretty. Therefore, after Lin Erye and his wife walked away quickly, Lin Shiqing and Lin Feng were not really completely satisfied.

He stopped and walked forward extremely slowly.

Both of them had calm expressions on their faces, and they were still smiling appropriately.

The children in the eldest family room of the Lin family also followed the same example and did not show any abnormalities at all.

On the other hand, the children in the second room of the Lin family... Lin Shijia bit her lip gently, looking completely incomprehensible in astonishment, and a little bit embarrassed, as if she didn't dare to face Lin Shiqing and his wife, she lowered her head slightly,

The roots of her ears were red. The fourth Miss Lin Yinjia stood calmly, with an indifferent look on her face. The fifth Miss Lin Lin Changjia looked restless, with her two big eyes darting around.

The courtyard of Rongxi Hall is not small.

But as long as you move forward, no matter how big the courtyard is, there will be a moment when you reach the end. From the courtyard gate to the main hall, it is less than an arrow's distance, and the group walked for a full quarter of an hour.

Someone finally came out of Rongxi Hall. It was Aunt Rong who was beside Mrs. Lin, Mrs. Li. Aunt Rong was the dowry girl of Mrs. Li back then and married a servant of the Lin family. Her husband is now the chief steward of the Lin family and received the honor herself.

Jubilee Hall.

With a smile all over her face, she quickly opened the door of Rongxi Hall, then took a step sideways and quickly went down the steps, saying to Lin Shiqing and his wife: "I'm here to greet you, sir!"

"Yeah!" Lin Shiqing agreed.

Instead, Mrs. Lin asked: "Mama Rong, you're welcome. Is the old lady awake?"

"Wake up!" Nanny Rong said with a smile: "You know, the old lady has always had the habit of taking a nap. Today, after receiving the news that you and the young masters are back, she hasn't rested. I just couldn't hold it anymore.

It just got a little crooked..."

Mrs. Lin walked up and said with a smile: "That's our fault..."

"Where is it?" Grandma Rong said hurriedly, not daring, and led the group of people into the lobby.

Mrs. Lin is already here.

She is less than fifty years old now, her hair is still black and green, and she looks very young. At this time, she is just wearing a navy blue home-style double-breasted coat, and a pair of wipes of the same color on her head.

Um, most of my body was sitting crookedly on the couch, leaning on a soft pillow with a dark red pattern of "Fu", looking as if a clear dream had been disturbed.

Just pretend.

Lin Yijia looked at it carefully, nodded, and came to the conclusion: it was indeed an act.

Moreover, she didn't believe that with Mrs. Lin's temperament, how could she rest for such a big deal as their family returning to Beijing? The tired look on her face might as well have been caused by being woken up.

She had trouble sleeping recently.

Mrs. Lin should be able to sleep well.

It has been ten years since the Lin family left Beijing, and Mr. Lin has been away from home all year round. She, her two biological sons and some grandchildren are left in the Lin family. She lives a comfortable and happy life. Now, the eldest family members are back.

Already...

It’s not that Lin Shiqing and Lin Feng from the eldest house were unfilial and caused trouble for her, but——

Lin Mansion belongs to Lin Shiqing.

Sooner or later, the second and third masters of the Lin family will have to live separately.

No one can change this fact.

And just thinking about this, Mrs. Lin couldn't feel happy. She once wanted to make some money, but her eldest son Lin Shiqing was outstanding in every way.

He returned to Beijing and joined the Ministry of Revenue and became a fourth-rank official.

There are quite a few fourth-grade Beijing officials in the capital. It’s nothing to say.

but?

Her own two sons, Mr. Lin, was talented, but he devoted all his talents to writing lyrics, music and operas. After becoming a scholar, life and death were no longer in danger! Thinking back then, Mrs. Lin was not without her

She had forced him, but as long as she said a word, Mr. Lin would live in the theater and not go home for ten and a half days!

Moreover, Mr. Lin doesn’t care!

As soon as she made trouble with him, he actually walked away! He left for a year and a half!

He himself is not motivated, and even now she has not even got a job, and it is embarrassing to go out, but he also taught her son bad things! It is clear that her son has the ability to earn a job for her! But he has gone astray!

Every time I think about it, Mrs. Li becomes so depressed that she vomits blood and goes crazy!

Fortunately, she also has a young son...

Li's eyes fell on Lin Shiqi, her face softened, and then she looked at Lin Shiqing and his wife again, and said calmly: "You are back now? I know my family..."

Listen! What is said!

This is too lazy to do even a little superficial effort...

Lin Yijia knew it in her heart. When she saw Lin Minjia seemed to be choking but was stopped by Lin Huijia with quick eyes and hands, she smiled inwardly, but her face showed a confused expression, and she stared at Mrs. Li with wide eyes.

Little Mrs. Li was worried next to her and said: "Mom!"

Mrs. Lin still smiled and ignored Mr. Li's sarcastic remarks for a moment. Instead, she led the children to deeply bless their bodies and salutes before replying: "Old Madam, you are joking. How can anyone not recognize our family?"

What? My daughter-in-law was a little late along the way and disturbed the old lady’s sleep. My daughter-in-law should apologize to the old lady first.”

After saying this, he solemnly blessed his body.

The stepmother is also a mother.

It stands to reason that when they return home from a long journey, they must kneel down when they meet for the first time. But the old lady obviously doesn't care about it, so why do they have to do so? Just like the old lady herself doesn't like to hear them call her "

"Mother" and "grandmother", as juniors, they naturally have to be filial, so they can only call her "old lady"...

Look, what's going on?

Mrs. Lin felt that it was really boring, so she turned sideways to let the juniors behind, and said: "Hui'er, Min'er, Yi'er, Kang'er, please meet the old lady soon."

"I've seen the old lady!" Several people had been warned early in the morning, but none of them knelt down or called out the word "grandmother."

Mrs. Li didn't care, as if she didn't realize there was anything wrong with the title. And she couldn't show off her face in front of the juniors, so she calmly asked them to get up, and asked Aunt Rong to hand out a purse to them.

.

Of course, there were no surprises in the purses. They were just two or two small gold nuggets. The girls each packed three, all in the shape of plum blossoms; Lin Jiakang got five, which were in the shape of the number one scholar.

In the past, Lin Yijia couldn't understand what Li was thinking.

In many family stories in the capital, if the stepmother doesn't like her stepson's family, whether it's pampering, praising or harsh suppression, isn't she always going to try her best to torment the stepson's family? For example, in today's scene, why should they let them do it?

Kowtow a few times, right? If you don't have enough etiquette in your younger life, why should you reprimand them to save face?

But Mr. Li never did that.

Later, Lin Yijia gradually understood that the reason why Mrs. Li did not torment them was very simple - in Mrs. Li's eyes, the eldest son of the Lin family did not have her blood and belonged to an outsider! How could an outsider do things with courtesy? As long as it was not excessive, she would not do it.

But go to the trouble and toss...
