Chapter 210 Who doesn't have a desire to go to the city
Chapter 210 Who doesn't have a desire to go to the city
The rumors in the village were very unpleasant, so he had no choice but to go to Li Cuihua. Before the divorce, he was still the head of the family and could not let her act recklessly. Li Cuihua disagreed and went to the clan leader. The clan leader asked him to write a letter of guarantee, promising not to hit that bitch again, and she reluctantly agreed to be with him.
However, the benefits of living with her are obvious. At least, he doesn't have to worry about three meals a day, and someone will do the housework, so he can concentrate on copying books.
A few days ago, this woman said she wanted to adopt an orphan and take care of them in their old age. He thought it was feasible. He had given up on having children of his own. The doctor in the prefecture said he could not even think about it in this lifetime, and the same was true in the county.
Now, he has no money or power, and no hope of passing the imperial examination. He only wants to restore his relationship with Lin Dashan and use Xiaomi's power to do something in the county town.
Copying books is really a job that will not make you hungry, but will not fill your stomach. There is no future for him. He will not get rich even if he copies books for his whole life.
Now, his hopes have been dashed, and he will have to continue copying books for a living.
"Dad, our whole family is going to the city." Lin Dahai said immediately after receiving the eager eyes of his wife and children. Except for him, no one in the family has ever been to the city and seen the prosperity of the city. This opportunity is too rare.
Yang grinned, the boss really had good sense.
"Dad, we too, as well as Wanxiu and her husband." This was what they had discussed last night. Their son must not be left behind. If they could make friends with a noble person, it would be of great help to them in the future. Does he still need to go to great lengths to curry favor with his elder brother?
My daughter-in-law asked for this. When my daughter-in-law got married, Xiaomi came to add dowry, which means she recognized this cousin. In this case, it is no problem for my daughter-in-law to send her off when she gets married.
In this way, my daughter is the cousin of the Crown Prince's wife. With such a backing, no one in her husband's family would dare to look down on her or bully her in the future.
He felt that his wife was right. He also wanted his daughter and children to live well.
Old man Lin nodded. They all wanted to go, that was no problem. Didn’t you see that there were two people who wanted to go but had nowhere to go and were staring at him eagerly?
"Cheng, Fuqiang, go to Wanxiu's house right now and tell her to make some decent clothes for her so she can get married and not wear them like a village woman."
Song: ... "Dad, Wanxiu got married and just made a few new ones."
"What kind of clothes are those? Are they presentable to others? And you, go to the clothing store in the city to buy clothes tomorrow. Don't embarrass me!" Old man Lin spoke in a loud voice.
Others: ...They have new clothes?!
"Old woman, you go too, and buy me two sets of clothes. That day, I have to sit at the same table with the old marquis. And you too, you have to sit at the same table with the marquis's wife."
Old Mrs. Li subconsciously sat up straight. She also wanted to eat at the same table with the nobleman!
Song looked at her mother-in-law with envy. She also wanted to have a feast with the Marquis's wife.
After Lin Mujin returned home, he said, "Go to the end of the village and call your second brother and his entire family. Call back those who are working outside."
When the eldest son saw his father's expression, he knew something important had happened and did not dare to delay, so he ran out to call for help.
"What's the matter, old man?"
"Nothing, it's just Xiaomi's wedding, let's see if they want to go to the capital to send her off."
"Oh." She was so scared that she thought something had happened. She lowered her head and continued to sew. She planned to wear this new dress when she got married and on her wedding day.
"To welcome the bride, we will sit at the main table. You will sit with the Marquis' wife. I heard that there are two other ladies from other families as well."
"Ouch!" Seeing the blood, the old woman instinctively put her hand in her mouth and sucked it a few times. She, a village woman, had to sit at the same table with the wives of officials. They were all high-ranking officials, whom she could not see on weekdays.
"Old man, can I not go?" The old woman's voice was filled with tears.
Lin Mujin glared at the person beside him and said, "Be more thoughtful. What's the big deal? Is it worth scaring you like this?"
I completely forgot that when I heard the news, my hands were shaking and I could hardly hold my pipe.
As soon as the sons and grandsons came in, they heard their father (grandfather) scolding their mother (grandmother), whose eyes were red.
So, why bother asking them to mediate the quarrel? Or asking them to watch the quarrel between the two elders?
Seeing the children coming in, the old man coughed a few times to ease the embarrassment.
"I called you here just to ask, do you want to go to the city to send the bride off?"
"Master, I must go to my house." Fuyou said.
"We'll go too."
"I want to go too."
"I haven't been to the city yet. I want to go and take a look."
He talks as if someone has been there before. If it weren't for his business in recent years, he would have hardly been to the county town many times.
In the evening, Lin Dashan saw the list and all four families went out without leaving anyone behind.
"My girl, our house in the city can't accommodate so many people!"
Lin Dashan was worried.
"Of course there is not enough room. Our house has three courtyards, which is definitely enough for several families. The children can live with us. Those who carry the dowry can live in the other house with two courtyards."
She could understand why every family went there, because everyone wanted to move to the city!
"to make."
