"Bullsh * t, your mom is going to get married soon, but you still have the face to say that she's young. Hurry up and tell her that she's married, then run over to her old lady's house and say that she's still young." If I were you, I would immediately slap her face! "You don't know what's good for you. What's your uncle reciting, that's why he told you about this marriage. It's all because you're the granddaughter of the Li family, that's why you got this marriage." Sitting on the chair, the Yang family said with cold eyes.

While the Yang family was cursing, Lin Xin'er looked around the room. In the middle of the north wall, there was a square table, and on both sides of the table, there were simple and crude chairs. On the east chair, sat Old Man Lin, followed by Lin Jia Wang and Lin Jia Gui.

Mrs Wang could be considered to have a beautiful scenery inside the house. She was dressed in a red satin dress with flowing clouds as well as a pair of butterfly-like golden undergarments. Her ordinary face, under the contrast of her fair skin, had a few traces of beauty, which appeared to be about twenty-five years old.

Lin Xin'er instantly understood what was going on. Lady Wang was laughing at them for talking nonsense. She must know something. Marrying to the capital city's Zhao Estate was a trap.

Apart from the five of them, everyone else was standing.

Even Lin Jia Wang's daughter-in-law was standing quietly beside Lady Yang, dressed in gorgeous makeup and clothes, looking a little eye-catching. Leaning beside her was her second daughter, Lin Tao'er, wearing a white dress, with a round, plump, and white, tender face, looking at Lin Xin'er with a pair of disdainful eyes.

The Lin Family from the Second Branch were all silent.

Suddenly, the butterfly hairpin in Lin Tao'er's hair attracted her attention.

It was exactly the same as the golden hairpin Lady Wang wore. Could it be that Lady Wang gave it to her? The fourth branch Lin Clan and the first branch Lin Clan had always been close to each other. The marriage in the capital was planned by both of them. Logically speaking, the two daughters of the Lin family were older than her, and the marriage was before her. After all, Lin Xing'er was 14 years old and Lin Tao'er was 2 months older than her.

The Zhao Family believed her, but she didn't believe it. Was the capital, Zhao Mansion real or fake? Why would it be her turn at the noble residence? His parents were cowardly and honest, his eldest uncle, the Lin Family, and the Qin Family were shrewd and cunning, his fourth uncle, the Lin Family, and his wife, the Wang Family, were cold-blooded and heartless, while his second uncle, the Lin Family, and his wife, the Zhou Family, were the most petty. The Li Family never had a good thing in their life!

Lin Xin'er smiled at Lady Yang and said, "Of course it's a good marriage. I know that I'm ugly and stupid, so I don't dare to be too haughty. In the capital's marriage, I'm afraid only Miss Peach is worthy."

Being suddenly mentioned, Lin Tao'er's anger instantly rose and she immediately retaliated: "You want me to replace you? Your Heart's Eye is truly poisonous. If you dare to have any ideas about me again, tear your mouth apart."

"Heart's Eye True Poison? It's obviously a good marriage, so why are you so angry? " Lin Xin'er asked with a puzzled expression.

Lin Tao'er did not notice and revealed her mouth. She was angry and anxious and did not dare to speak anymore. She turned her head and hugged née Qin's arm like a spoiled child and said: "Mother, she bullied me."

Madam Qin looked at her husband with her apricot eyes.

Lin Jia Wang coughed and said in a low voice: "Enough, can the words spoken by this woman be counted?" Turning his head to look at his second son, he said, "Shu Cheng, go and call your third uncle back from the fields."

"Father, that's right. Let third uncle come back and say something. Third Aunt can stop pestering us." Lin Shucheng sneered as he looked at Lin Xin'er.

"Grandfather, the weather is hot. Second Brother doesn't know where our home is, so I'll take Second Brother with me." Lin Xin'er said to the silent Old Man Li.

"Go." Old Man Li said impatiently.

Mistress Yang was so angry that she turned her head away and scolded, "If you don't do it in one day, your heart will itch. Sooner or later they will drag you down to death. If my words are useless, then who would think that I am useless? Since I am unnecessary, sooner or later, I will die.

After saying this last sentence, she suddenly turned around and looked at Mrs Zhao with a ferocious expression.

Mrs Zhao began to sob softly.

Compared to his vicious mouth, the Yang family has always called themselves number two, and no one dares to call themselves number one. The more angered the Yang family is, the happier Lin Xin'er wants to be, and she smiled: "Grandmother, don't be angry, anger your own body, and suffer by yourself, right? "Grandfather."

Mistress Yang gritted her teeth and was about to curse again.

Old Man Lin slapped the square table.

The Yang family kept their mouths shut.

Lin Xin'er followed closely behind Lin Shucheng into the house. As she left the courtyard, she caught up to Lin Shucheng and said with a silly smile, "Second Brother is very elegant, the Niu family's second daughter is really lucky. To be able to marry her second brother, there are many girls who want to be his concubines, but have no chance at all." Upon seeing Lin Shucheng's arrogant appearance, Zhang Xuan hesitated for a moment before asking, "I've heard of the Niu family's rule that a son-in-law cannot accept a concubine?"

"It is not up to them to decide whether to accept concubines or not. Do you understand? " Lin Shucheng raised his eyebrows and glared at Lin Xin'er, saying, "I am willing to accept a concubine. Who would dare to say the word 'no'?"

Lin Shucheng's furious expression was exactly the same as Lin Tao'er's. She smiled and said, "Brother Niu, concubines cost a lot of money, but you can't take it out either. Some people are talking behind his back about the Niu family disagreeing with this. They say that the gifts promised by Brother Niu were not enough!"

"Motherfucker, I spent a total of two hundred taels of silver on the Niu family. In our town, which family has such a good reputation? None of the villagers have ever seen so much silver before. If it weren't for them …" He gave Lin Xin'er a supercilious look and said: "You're just a girl, why are you meddling in such a small matter? After you marry into the capital, our family will be basking in your glory."

"The heavens are high, the emperor is far away. I can't get you an official position. " Lin Xin'er said in disappointment.

Lin Shucheng smirked, "I can't be an official, but Fourth Uncle can be one. If you marry into the capital, you'll get the most benefits. Two hundred silver taels and one official's rank are way too different." "After Fourth Uncle takes office, our family will have to follow him to enjoy the blessings."

"What if Fourth Uncle doesn't want you to go?" Lin Xin'er asked innocently. However, he sneered in his heart, so she was being cheated. Even her parents were kept in the dark.

"He dares?" Lin Shucheng said anxiously.

Lin Xin'er thought for a while and said: "If Fourth Uncle refuses, then it is within reason. There is no need to blame Fourth Uncle. After all, such a large family is all dependent on Fourth Uncle …" Why should I? "

"What do you know? Stupid girl, for his sake, how much effort did we put in? "If it wasn't for my father's advice, there would be plenty of Elementary Scholars in the county, and only a few of them would be able to become officials!" Lin Shucheng reprimanded.

Lin Xin'er smiled, "Second brother's words have enlightened me. Young Master Zhao from Beijing is in his fifties this year? "

The gleeful Lin Shucheng casually replied, "She is already in her sixties. Once Young Master Zhao returns, the entire Zhao Clan will belong to my younger sister."

"Big brother is so smart." Lin Xin'er praised.

Lin Shucheng rolled his eyes and snorted coldly.

A light breeze blew past his face as he looked at the vast and empty field. He couldn't find the end. The air was filled with the smell of grass. He took a deep breath and felt a refreshing and comfortable feeling spread throughout his body.

A young girl walked past with a bamboo basket in her hand.

"Juan'er?" Lin Shucheng shouted in pleasant surprise.

The young girl stopped in her tracks. She glared at Lin Shucheng and said in a strange tone, "Sir Lin is soon going to marry the daughter of a rich family. You can still see me, a village girl. Today's sun is rising from the west!"

Lin Shucheng softly pleaded, "Ning'er, don't piss me off! I was forced to do so because it was hard to say the orders of my parents. Even though I had a falling out with my father, I was still unable to break away from their relationship.

"Liar!" "Animal!" The girl stomped her feet and ran away in tears.

Seeing Lin Shucheng stunned on the spot, Lin Xin'er urged him urgently, "Second brother, hurry up and chase her. A girl's heart is soft, you can just coax her. If you don't chase after him now, you won't have another chance in the future. "

Lin Shucheng flung his sleeves and chased after him.

Watching the two of them leave, the corners of Lin Xin'er's lips curled up as an evil smile appeared on her face. "Since ancient times, youngsters loved to be amorous." Eldest Uncle was very good at scheming. He sold her to help Lin Shucheng get married, so she let them draw water from a bamboo basket. Everything was for nothing.

May was still not a busy month for farming. There were not many farmers in the fields, and the green wheat bore full fruit. In another month, the ears of wheat would turn yellow and mature, and every household would start harvesting wheat.

Lin Shubai was alone on the ground, fishing for bugs. Beside him was a bamboo blue cloth covering him. At the end of the wheat field, Lin Clan's Fu Fu Fu and Lin Yu'er, one in front of the other, were stooping down to pluck the grass.

"Shu Bai." Lin Xin'er shouted.

"Second sister, come and help me catch grasshoppers. If you catch a full plate, you'll be able to eat fried grasshoppers tonight."

"I came to call our dad home."

"Going home to eat? "My dad brought lunch with him today. He ate in the fields at noon, so as to avoid running back and forth."

The corners of Lin Xin'er's mouth twitched as she loudly shouted.

An echo resounded.

After a while, Lin Jiafu and Lin Yu'er came running out of the fields. As soon as they came out of the wheat fields, they wiped their sweat with their sleeves and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Dad, where's second uncle?" Lin Xin'er asked.

For the Lin Family, she was the only one who had nothing better to do. She brought the fifteen-year-old Lin Yu'er and eight-year-old Lin Shubai to work in the fields.

"Your second uncle has a good friend who went to help out with the funeral, he'll be back as soon as the sun goes down." The honest and fawning Lin Clan Fu said with a smile.

Lin Xin'er knew that her second uncle was the best at being lazy, so she said, "Dad, second uncle's family hasn't come yet. Grandmother has always said that second uncle will be the one to rely on for farming. I know you don't want to bother. There's only one thing I need to tell Father. "

"What is it?" The Lin Family's rich man sat on the ground as he raised his dark face and asked.

Seeing that she had nothing else to do, Lin Yu'er wiped the sweat off her forehead and said, "You two talk first. I'll go and pluck the grass from the ground and finish this piece of land."

"Sis, take a rest." Lin Xin'er saw that Lin Yu'er's hair was drenched in sweat. She pointed to her side and said, "Sis, please sit beside me and listen."

Lin Yu'er smiled and sat down.

"Father, Young Master Zhao from the Zhao Family in the capital is over sixty years old. Because of this marriage, he gave Uncle two hundred taels of silver and promised Fourth Uncle an official position. At present, uncle had already decided to give two hundred taels of silver to the Niu family for his second brother's marriage. Father, do you know these things? " Lin Xin'er said succinctly.

Lin Jiafu was shocked, he immediately stood up and asked, "Who did you hear that from?"
