Chapter 70 The angry and rebellious old father (1) (1/2)
Lin Shiheng, who is happy to be a father, checked out the general plot of this world.
This is a novel from the heroine's perspective. It mainly tells the story of the heroine, the daughter of a general, who was born in a chaotic world. Although she is a girl, she has a smart head that is as smart as a man. Because she has been with her father since she was a child, she has been influenced by everything. He is very talented in marching and fighting.
Since the world was in chaos, princes from all walks of life have rebelled, the emperor has gone against the grain, and the people have rebelled. The emperor who only cares about pleasure is worried about the betrayal of his subordinates, so he can’t wait to tie his subordinates to a boat, and then the emperor with three thousand beauties in his harem Had a bad idea.
Marry the general's daughter, that is, the heroine as your concubine.
Originally, it was a good thing to have a princess in the family. In most cases, the general should agree. Unfortunately, in this book, the heroine is the only daughter of the general. She has been held in the palm of her hand since she was a child. The relationship was so good, how could he be willing to let the apple of his eye marry an emperor who was about to be doomed as a concubine.
The emperor was about to die, and he still wanted to harm his daughter. The heroine's father also had thoughts of rebellion. But he had been a courtier for a long time, and he did not think of proclaiming himself a king, so he simply took refuge with the third prince who was in the limelight at the time. .
The content of the plot is probably the story of how the heroine personally led the troops to fight as a daughter, assisted the third prince to sit on the throne with her father, and incidentally married the third prince's son and had a happy family.
In this story, the son of the third prince is a natural-born general. He is brave and has never been defeated. Later in the plot, he is named the prince by the third prince who ascends the throne. Not surprisingly, he will be the next emperor.
In this story of a perfect reunion, Lin Shiheng's body only occupies a few words.
He is the father of the Third Prince's son.
To be precise, the father who likes to be a father.
When the world was still in chaos, the third prince behaved like a coquettish person in order to paralyze the prince, showing mercy everywhere. During one of his attempts to show mercy, he pretended to be a rich man and had an affair with a woman. When the relationship between the two was at its strongest, they even He also gave her the jade pendant that was close to his body.
After that, the third prince had enough fun and disappeared into the vast crowd without saying goodbye. The woman was waiting wholeheartedly for her lover to come and ask for her hand in marriage. Unexpectedly, she gave up her body, but her lover just disappeared and she cried bitterly. When she didn't know what to do, she found out that she was pregnant.
After all, the paper couldn't cover up the fire. Her depressed appearance still attracted the attention of her family. After being asked, she couldn't help but tell the truth. Her parents just wanted to beat her to death, but after all, she was their biological daughter, so they bought her abortion pills. Knock the child down and just act like nothing happened.
The woman was unwilling, and her parents said that if she refused to have an abortion, the child would be born without a father and he would be immersed in a pig pen with her.
In desperation, she found the original owner who admired her to take over.
The original owner was born as a carpenter and had no father or mother. He had been supporting himself as a carpenter in the village. Although his family was poor, he had a good appearance. In addition, he had a strong body from long-term work, which made many people want to find him. The son-in-law's village girl became interested.
However, he only had a single-minded admiration for this woman who had a romantic relationship with the third prince. After an "accidental" encounter with the person he liked, he was so happy that he quickly spent all his wealth and went to the woman's house to propose marriage.
Things went well, she married him and six months later gave birth to their first son "prematurely".
What puzzled the original owner was that his wife had no interest in the couple's affairs. He loved her and did not want to force her, so he married her but insisted on living a life of abstinence for five years.
It is a pity that until the child was five years old, the woman who was waiting for the third prince could not wait for her lover to pick her and the child up. She eventually died of depression. Before she died, she talked to the child alone and left the jade pendant to him.
A five-year-old child should not know anything, but perhaps because of his extraordinary talent, he actually remembered what his mother told him about his life experience, and the jade pendant never left his body.
A year after his wife passed away, the original owner saw his son become skin and bones because of his poor cooking skills. He married a foreign woman when she fled to his doorstep, and the two gave birth to three sons together.
After that, the eldest son grew bigger and bigger, and wanted to join the army. The original owner was reluctant but could not stop him. He was worried that something might happen to him when he left. After he was gone, there would be no descendants to pay tribute to him, and even the incense would be lost, and the family's few money would be spent. He went to a neighboring village to hire a daughter-in-law.
After the two hurriedly consummated their marriage, the eldest son left home to join the army. The wife he hired back was also pregnant, but he did not expect that he would not return for seven years.
Seven years later, when he came back, he severed ties with his unrelated father, divorced his wife on the spot, disowned his biological daughter, left a thousand taels of silver, and left here never to return.
The son he had raised for so many years was not his biological son. This was like a bolt from the blue to the original owner. The one thousand taels of silver seemed to remind him what kind of white-eyed wolf he had raised. The original owner was so stimulated that night that he Crazy, he pushed the thousand taels to the river and poured them all in.
The family members discovered that Qianliang and his father were missing and hurried to look for them, only to find that he had gone crazy.
Of course a madman cannot tell where he got the thousand taels.
It is self-evident what one thousand taels means to this family.
But the three sons in the family did not blame their father, but continued to take care of him honestly. The original owner went crazy for ten years. Although the family was poor during these ten years, they were well taken care of by their sons and daughter-in-law. When he was divorced by the eldest son, The deceased daughter-in-law stayed because of the kindness of her three sons. The daughter who was divorced by her husband was not of the Lin family, so she was still taken in. She was so grateful that she worked with them to take care of and support this daughter. original owner.
The original owner had been crazy for ten years and was well taken care of for ten years.
Until the tenth year, when the third prince ascended the throne, the matter of finding his biological son who had been living among the people and making him the prince was also rumored to be a good story. Even if he was crazy for ten years, the original owner still talked about it and got up in the middle of the night. , drowned in the river.
His wish was very simple, to make life difficult for the rebellious son, and to make his real relatives, including his eldest daughter-in-law, live better than the rebellious son.
After checking the memory of the original owner, Lin Shiheng roughly understood why he was so persistent with his son.
Because he was the "child born for him" by his beloved, he loved this eldest son very much. The specific extent of his love can probably be explained by the word "partiality".
Even if the family has no money, they still have to send their eldest son to school. What about the remaining three sons? Just have food to eat.
She had enough money to buy clothes, but instead of buying them for herself and her eldest son, she, like the rest of the family, wore leaky clothes with countless layers of patches.
Every time the family eats meat, 80% out of 10 will end up in the eldest son's bowl. Even if he eats normal meals, the eldest son who doesn't have to work in the fields will eat more than the three sons who are immersed in farm work every day.
For his three biological children, the original owner was not a good father, but for this unrelated eldest son, the original owner truly held him in his heart and loved him.
Maybe it was because it was the blood of myself and my loved one at first, but after more than 20 years of pain, it really hurt to my bones.
Even knowing that he was not his bloodline, the original owner would be sad and angry, but he never thought of giving up his eldest son.
In the end, it was the other party who gave up first.
He will go crazy, and the biggest shock he receives is not "my eldest son is not my biological child", but "the child I cherish so much has never regarded me as his father."
And it wasn't until the moment before his death that he suddenly realized that in his entire life, he had been sorry for his wife and his three sons. He never cherished the good things he did to him, but he treated the white-eyed wolf with all his heart and soul, and even treated him with kindness. I'm going to go crazy because of this white-eyed wolf.
If it happened again, he would make up for the family members he had let down.
The Lin family includes the step-brother, three sons, the eldest daughter-in-law and granddaughter who technically have nothing to do with the Lin family, and a few little carrot heads.
The descendants of the Lin family have always been quite prosperous. The second, third and fourth bedrooms of the grandchildren all have two sons. Only the eldest daughter, who the original owner loves most and most desperately wants a grandson, has a granddaughter.
This also made the original owner very dissatisfied. After all, there is no news about his beloved eldest son now. What use is a granddaughter? If something happens to the eldest son, he can't even break a basin for his father, let alone the issue of offering incense in the future. .
This dissatisfaction turned into anxiety when the son did not return home. Although anxious, the eldest daughter-in-law and granddaughter lived a pretty good life. There was no special treatment. They were treated the same as other daughters-in-law and grandchildren in the family, until the original owner was too much. Worried about her son, she couldn't help but pay a passing fortune teller to tell when her son would return.
The fortune teller made a calculation and said, old man, your son is doing well in everything, but he is unlucky and has married a wife who is incompatible with him. If he wants his son to return safely, he must have his eldest daughter-in-law kowtow a hundred times every day. , maybe it can resolve this mutual conflict.
What he said was actually vague.
Anyway, the blame was passed on to the eldest daughter-in-law. If the original owner's son does not come back, it means the eldest daughter-in-law is not sincere enough. If he comes back, it is the result of his guidance. Anyway, whether he comes back or not, he is the one who can calculate it accurately.
The tricks commonly used by these charlatans may not be able to deceive those high-ranking officials, but they can deceive the original owner who has only dealt with woodworking all his life.
He really believed what he said, but he didn't think about asking his eldest daughter-in-law to kowtow. He only wanted to ensure that his son returned safely, and when he came back, he announced that he would divorce his wife for his son and let his eldest daughter-in-law return to her parents' home.
The family was shocked. Although the original owner had always been partial and the eldest son had always had a mild relationship with them and looked down upon them, the eldest daughter-in-law had been married for seven years and took care of the housework to serve her parents-in-law and sister-in-law. Although she only gave birth to a daughter, that was because In a relationship that was only consummated once, she was impeccable in every aspect.
Besides, in this world, if a woman is divorced and goes home, she will be despised by everyone.
Isn’t that a crime to drive people back when they have done nothing wrong?
The three sons and daughters-in-law, including the wife who never dared to speak loudly to her husband, couldn't help but persuade him that even if he believed the fortune teller, it would be enough for the eldest daughter-in-law to kowtow a hundred times a day. Why divorce him? go home.
The original owner was so angry that he fell to the ground on the spot. This frightened his wife, son and daughter-in-law so much that they did not dare to stop him. But just when he was about to drive away his daughter-in-law to allow the eldest son to return smoothly, the eldest son came back.
He raised a thousand taels of silver and used this money to buy years of upbringing and father-son affection.
After that, he went crazy.
If you offend someone who is good to you, you will be offended by someone who is good to you.
It can be considered as retribution.
【Ding! Mission: Protect the Lin family, please complete the mission as soon as possible. 】
Lin Shiheng leaned against the wall and felt his current physical condition.
He is very strong. Although he has become a grandfather now, he is not yet forty-five years old. In addition, he has been working for a long time and no one in the family is short of food and drink. His physical condition is much better than that of other people in the village. .
The reason why he fell into coma was partly due to anger and anxiety, and partly due to long-term anxiety about the delay in the return of his eldest son.
The current time point is that he got the fortune teller's fortune telling result yesterday. When he returned home, he insisted on driving away his eldest daughter-in-law. The whole family tried to persuade him, but he fainted in anger. The second son went to the county to invite a doctor overnight. , even though he said it was nothing serious, the original owner still didn’t wake up, causing the whole family to panic.
If the eldest son does not come at this time, the eldest daughter-in-law will be kicked out as the original owner wishes.
He held his hands together, narrowed his eyes slightly, and moved his ears.
There was the sound of horse hooves approaching, and it seemed that they had arrived.
The next moment, the sound of horseshoes neighing came from outside.
The third son who was chopping firewood outside rushed into the house with excitement on his face, "Dad! It's the eldest brother who's back, Dad. The eldest brother is back on horseback with many soldiers!"
The whole family knows how much the head of the family loves this eldest son, because it has always been like this from memory. There is no jealousy at all. They are just happy that the eldest brother is back, and the father who has been worried about him does not have to worry or think about rushing. Sister-in-law is gone.
Lin Shiheng took a look at Shale's son. His appearance was not bad. To be precise, the three biological sons of the Lin family all had good looks. After all, the original owner's appearance was always online. The wife he later married was only good-looking, but obviously the three sons She takes after her father in appearance, but her temperament is the same as that of her own mother. She is kind-hearted and kind-hearted. She basically belongs to the type who works hard and doesn't have any negative emotions.
Like now, he was purely happy for his eldest brother who came back safely, and never thought about how much his eldest brother looked down on these younger brothers.
Lin Shiheng looked away, with joy on his face, "Quick, help me up, I want to see my son properly."
The third son happily helped him put on his coat, helped him get out of bed, and walked excitedly to the door. At this moment, the leader, Mo Shenke, was dismounting, standing at the door with a frown and disgust, but did not go in.
The Lin family's yard is quite large. Although the house is a bit dilapidated, the people in the family are hardworking and have tidied it up properly. Not only did they split a part of the yard to grow vegetables, but they also raised chickens and ducks. It’s not much but it will be an income when they grow up.
These chickens and ducks, which seemed to represent money in the eyes of farmers, made Mo Shenke very disgusted, especially when he saw the pieces of chicken droppings on the ground, which made him even more reluctant to take a step forward.
While he was waiting impatiently, a middle-aged man in the room, who was limping weakly and supported by a tall man, looked at him with eyes red with excitement, and shouted at him:
"My son!!!!"
"You're finally back. My father has been worried for the past seven years. He's afraid that something will happen to you. Why don't you go into the house when you get home? Come in quickly. The third child's family should kill the chicken quickly and make good repairs for my Guangyao family. Replenish the body…”
Before Mo Shenke could speak, he heard the man in front of him, whom he had called daddy for more than twenty years, say a long string of words.
He frowned impatiently and avoided Lin Shiheng's approaching hand.
"No need, I came here today to say something."
With Lin Shiheng's disbelieving face getting paler and paler, he told him the news that he was not his biological father and that he had now found his biological father.
"Guangyao... you, you are not my child?"
The Lin family members who heard the news and came out watched Lin Shiheng's seriously shocked look on his face and his trembling voice, and their hearts were filled with shock.
No one knows better than them how much their father loves their eldest brother. But now, his eldest brother is not his biological son?
When Mo Shenke saw Lin Shiheng's appearance, he didn't feel as distressed as his three sons. Instead, he frowned and said impatiently: "Don't call me Lin Guangyao. I have changed my father's surname back to my father's surname now."
The name Lin Guangyao was foreign to him and difficult to use. Every time he introduced him to someone, he always introduced himself as a cousin and never refused to tell his real name.
But now, he has found his biological father and recognized him. His father is the third prince, and he will probably be the future emperor. He will be a high-ranking prince, and he will be happy to eat a piece of meat with these people. Being a lowly and poor person for a long time no longer matters.
As soon as these words came out, Lin Shiheng, who was supported by his son, couldn't even stand steady.
"I, you... Guangyao, do you really think you are not my biological child?"
"really."
When he heard these words, his peach-blossom eyes that had fascinated countless women when he was young instantly turned gloomy. But even though they looked shaken by the shock, Lin Shiheng still murmured with sadness in his eyes: "It's okay. , It's okay... It's a good thing that you found your biological father... Dad will still love you as much as before. "
Mo Chenke sneered, did he still want to hurt himself?
Why does it hurt?
With clothes full of patches, is it still difficult to eat meat for a month?
Ever since he learned at the age of five that his biological father was someone else, he might even be a big shot, he had been looking forward to finding his biological father and escaping from this poor family.
Now, I finally got my wish.
Not wanting to waste any more words with his unrelated father, Mo Shenke directly stated that since he had recognized his biological father, he naturally wanted to sever ties with the unrelated Lin family.
"Of course, even if it's a father-son fight, I won't let you suffer. Someone come and bring up the money."
Two boxes were carried up. Mo Shenke stepped forward and opened the box, revealing the white flowers and silver inside.
"These one thousand taels are enough for you to eat for a lifetime."
In this era when twenty taels are enough for a well-off family to live a prosperous life, one thousand taels is simply a sudden wealth for the Lin family. The third prince has been fighting since he started the army, so the silver taels captured in the city will naturally belong to him. The new owner, so there is no shortage of money on hand.
This time, knowing that his son was going back to sever ties with his adoptive father, he generously allocated three thousand taels from his private treasury as a token of gratitude to the Lin family for their upbringing.
He was born as a prince and has always had enough food and clothing, so he naturally doesn't think these three thousand taels are anything. However, Mo Shenke has been growing up in the Lin family and knows that for them, one tael of silver is considered too much, so On the way here, two thousand taels were withheld and only one thousand taels were allocated. Anyway, for the Lin family, one thousand taels was enough.
But what Mo Shenke didn't expect was that Lin Shiheng's eyes never looked at the white |flower|flowers of silver. Instead, he stared at him with red eyes: "I don't want money, I just want my son."
"You really don't want to give up on the love between father and son for so many years!"
Mo Shenke didn't expect it to develop like this. It stands to reason that Lin Shiheng would be very angry after learning about his life experience. According to his plan, he would wait until Lin Shiheng was angry or couldn't help but curse, then he would announce the break. The relationship between father and son will seem more reasonable at that time.
Unexpectedly, even after knowing that he had helped raise his son for more than 20 years, Lin Shiheng still didn't want to give up on his son.
Is it because the formation that saw him coming was too big, so he couldn't be satisfied with just one thousand taels?
He didn't want to stay in this place any longer, so he simply got on his horse and said directly: "Now that I have recognized my biological father, there is no reason to be your son anymore."
"If you don't want to be my son, what about your wife? Where is your daughter!"
He didn't say it was okay, but Mo Shenke's face turned ugly when he mentioned it. If he had known that he was the son of the third prince, he would never have listened to the Lin family and married a peasant woman.
After investigating and finding out that this peasant woman had given birth to a daughter for him, the regret in his heart became more and more obvious. Now the father's intention was very obvious. He hoped that he could marry the general's daughter who was very good at fighting. The general only had such a daughter. If he could marry his only daughter, all the soldiers and horses under his command would become his.
Think about it, how could the daughter of a general who was loved by thousands of people marry someone as a concubine?
Therefore, the previously married wife must be dealt with.
And the daughter I have never met.
Mo Shenke sat on the horse, glanced condescendingly at the people in the courtyard, and accurately fixed his gaze on the woman holding a six or seven-year-old girl.
Although he hadn't seen her for seven years, he still recognized her as the wife who had only consummated the marriage in a hurry.
This time, I can only feel sorry for her.
"Marrying a wife was not what I wanted in the first place. Since I didn't go to the Yamen to apply for household registration, she is not my wife."
In front of his wife, who was holding her daughter's hand and looking at her with a white face, he took out a piece of divorce paper from his arms and threw it lightly on the ground.
"From now on, marriage between men and women has nothing to do with each other."
"well!!"
Anyone who is not blind can see that Lin Shiheng was furious. The third son, who was still in shock, quickly supported him and was very worried that his biological father, who had just woken up, would faint from anger again.
"Brother, don't be like this. You want to sever ties with the Lin family because you are not related by blood. But my sister-in-law has not done anything wrong. If you divorce her, how will she live in the future? Dad was in a coma yesterday and only woke up today. Don't be angry. Let’s talk to him if we have anything to say..."
Mo Shenke sat on the horse and looked at the girl who was holding the current hand and looking over with red eyes. The blood relationship made him want to take a closer look at his daughter, but when he thought of the general's daughter, he gritted his teeth and made himself cruel. Come on, pull the reins and control the horse to turn around.
Just as he was about to leave, Lin Shiheng's trembling voice came from behind.
"Since you have abandoned your wife and daughter and severed ties with my Lin family, I will not keep you anymore, but remember, Lin Guangyao of my Lin family is dead. No matter how much you regret it in the future, I will never keep you again. Acknowledge this son of yours!”
regret?
His biological father is a prince. He himself is now leading the army and has a high status. He will soon marry the daughter of a general. How can he regret it?
Mo Shenke didn't even have the intention to turn around and reply, and left with his men on fast horses.
"father……"
Looking at the dust raised by the horse's hooves, the Lin family's yard fell silent. Mother Lin looked at her husband worriedly. She opened her mouth to persuade but didn't know how to persuade. The other sons and daughters-in-law also didn't know what to do. Open your mouth.
Having raised someone else's son for more than 20 years, even those who are honest and loyal can't stand it.
Compared with Lin Shiheng, who was still in shock and worry, Mrs. Lin's face was white and her eyes were full of despair.
When her father-in-law thought her husband was his biological child, he would drive her back to her parents' home. Now that she knew her husband was not his child, how could he allow her to stay in the Lin family?
And her daughter. If she had been kicked out of the Lin family before, although her daughter's life might not have been as good as before, the Lin family had good tempers. Even if her father-in-law was angry with her daughter, her uncles and aunts would take care of her.
But now, her husband has given her a letter of divorce, and also said that he is not of the Lin family's blood, and her daughter is not the granddaughter of the Lin family at all. In this situation, no matter how much her father-in-law loved her husband before, she will never The mother and daughter will no longer be left behind.
Although a person who is divorced and goes home will suffer contempt and neglect from his parents' family, he can still survive if he wants to live.
But if you take your daughter back, not to mention whether her parents are willing to let her in, just the pointing fingers from the people around you and the lack of food and money are enough to make it impossible for them to survive.
Sister-in-law Lin almost despaired when she remembered that her husband had just given the Lin family a thousand taels, but he never mentioned that he would also give her some food.
He clearly knew that the Lin family would not keep her in this situation, and her natal family would not take in a married woman who was divorced and brought home with her children.
In this situation, she and her daughter couldn't survive without money or food, and with only a divorce letter.
Is this his purpose?
It doesn't matter if you give them up, you have to force them to death.
She only regretted that she was too shocked just now and didn't rush up and kneel down to beg him to take her daughter away when the cruel man left. But if he had meant it, then she wouldn't have stayed even if she begged.
She originally thought that being almost kicked out of the house yesterday was the most terrifying thing in the world, but today, she completely overturned this idea.
What it felt like to be plotted to die by the husband who was supposed to be with her for the rest of her life. Her eyes were full of tears, but she couldn't think about it anymore. She knelt on the ground with a thud and kowtowed desperately.
"Father, mother, please don't drive me away. Please, my aunt is still young. If you drive me out, you will definitely die. I can go to the fields to do farm work and take care of the family. I usually do embroidery work and take it to the county." Sell it, please don’t drive us away..."
"Auntie, hurry up and kowtow to grandpa."
As she spoke, she took her daughter who was already crying beside her and knelt down to kowtow to Lin Shiheng.
The three brothers were all at a loss. Second Sister-in-law Lin was already panicking and hurriedly stepped forward to help her up with her two younger siblings. However, Sister-in-law Lin knew that this was her daughter's last chance to survive and kowtowed to the ground, refusing to get up no matter how hard she pulled. .
Looking helplessly at her forehead, which was soon turning purple and red and bleeding, Mother Lin, who had never said a word, carefully spoke to her husband: "His father, Weiniang does a lot of work. Her mother's family treats her well." It’s always bad. It’s hot summer now, and it’s so chaotic outside that you can’t tell the good guys from the bad ones. Why don’t we keep her, she can be considered a strong laborer.”
She came here on the run and was two years older than Lin Shiheng. At first, she walked with her parents and younger siblings. Later, while walking, her younger siblings starved to death first, and then her father was interrupted when he was fighting for food with others. She had a broken leg and a high fever, so she left that night. Finally, my mother couldn't stand the hunger anymore, so she jumped into the river and committed suicide.
This escape lasted for a full six years. What she feared most was starvation. Back then, she was willing to do anything as long as she had a mouthful of food. Therefore, when her husband asked her about the need for a wife to take care of the housework, she did not hesitate. So he agreed.
After marrying her husband, she didn't talk much, but she was very diligent. She kept the house clean inside and outside, and treated her step-son who was not her biological son as her biological son. She even said things to her husband. Definitely not going west, because even though she has been stable for so many years, to her, she is still the fleeing people who were satisfied as long as they had enough to eat.
She rarely expressed her opinions and just did things silently. However, she couldn't bear it when she saw Mrs. Lin kneeling on the ground and kowtowing miserably.
As soon as Mother Lin opened her mouth, her three sons quickly followed her advice: "Yes, Dad, there is a war and chaos outside, and my sister-in-law cannot survive with a child."
"Let's settle down first. After all, my sister-in-law has been filial to you and mother for the past seven years. If something happens to her outside our home, we will have uneasy consciences for the rest of our lives."
"Dad, just help my sister-in-law."
Lin Shiheng frowned and leaned next to his third son, "Second daughter-in-law, help the eldest daughter-in-law up."
"Eh!"
Sister-in-law Lin quickly agreed, holding up the dizzy Sister-in-law Lin who was kowtowing with one hand: "Sister-in-law, daddy told you to get up, get up quickly."
Sister-in-law Lin quickly stood up, fearing that her father-in-law would be unhappy because she was slow to move. At this moment, her forehead was covered with dirt and blood, and the bruises looked particularly scary. But she didn't know it, and she seemed to feel no pain. Normally, a pair of eyes swollen from crying looked at Lin Shiheng cautiously with despair and hope.
"Remember, our Lin Guangyao is dead. He died on the battlefield. His body belongs to my family. From now on, you will be the widow of our Lin family. Do you remember?"
Are you going to keep her and your daughter?
Sister-in-law Lin was ecstatic and nodded frantically: "I've written it down, Dad, I've written it down."
Lin Shiheng didn't look at her again, but waved to his granddaughter, who was standing next to his mother and looked at him timidly with red eyes, "Auntie, come here."
Aunt Lin is only six years old. Although she has never seen her father since she was born, and her grandfather dislikes her for being a girl, he is lukewarm towards all the children in the family, so Aunt Lin does not feel that she is being treated specially. In addition, Her uncles and aunts were all very kind to her, and her younger brothers and sisters loved to play with her, so she always had a lively temperament.
But the fact that her mother was almost kicked out yesterday made her panic and she didn't know what to do. Coupled with everything she experienced today, these things together obviously scared her. At this moment, her big eyes were full of Tears, at the urging of her mother, took hesitant steps and walked over timidly.
Children from poor families mature prematurely, and she also knew something. She knew that her father did not want her and her mother to marry, and now, she and her mother were likely to be kicked out.
Can't cry.
Grandpa doesn't like children crying.
If he sees her crying, he will kick her and her mother out.
The little girl with wet tears on her face walked up to Lin Shiheng. Although her eyes were full of tears, she still managed to squeeze out a smile on her face. Her tender voice was crying and she begged: "Grandpa, don't drive me away, she will catch you." Feed bugs to chickens, sweep the yard, and deliver meals to uncles and aunts..."
Lin Shiheng knelt down and stretched out his hand to wipe away the tears on his granddaughter's face, "I won't drive you away, aunt. Remember, your father is dead and you are the granddaughter of our Lin family."
Aunt Lin stretched out her hand and wiped her tears while nodding, "Auntie, I remember."
Knowing that Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Lin would not be driven away, the three Lin brothers and Mother Lin on the side breathed a sigh of relief.
After Lin Shiheng finished speaking to his granddaughter, he stood up and said, "Second, third and fourth, take your wives and carry the money into the house."
"Hey, okay!"
The three sons quickly agreed and went to move the money obediently.
Fortunately, they live in a remote area and there are no neighbors around. Otherwise, if people see that they have so much money in their home, there is no guarantee that they will not attract some evil people if word spreads about it.
If they had seen so much money before, they would have been overjoyed, but now that they knew clearly that the money was obtained by severing the relationship between their eldest brother and their father, the three brothers remained silent.
Since childhood, I have watched how my father put his eldest brother in the palm of his hand and loved him, and witnessed with my own eyes that just now he did not want money and wanted his eldest brother to sever the relationship between father and son. The three of them were not happy. It is good to have money, but if dad is angry They kicked their legs directly into the sky, and their backbone was immediately broken.
They were raised with too naive temperaments, but one was competing and the other was filial. At this moment, they were filled with thoughts of how angry their father would be and whether his anger would damage their health.
No amount of money is as important as my father.
The three daughters-in-law felt a little more happy when they saw so much money, but they were all honest-natured, and no one asked to share the money. They followed their husbands and carried the money into the house in silence.
Lin Shiheng was already sitting in front of the table waiting for them. Sister Lin held her daughter's hand and did not dare to help. She was standing timidly in the corner. Mother Lin stood behind her husband and carefully put the water on the table: "His father, Have a drink of water."
He picked it up and took a sip, still with a gloomy face. This scene made the six people who came in feel tense. They all immediately shrunk their necks and lowered their eyes and put down the money. No one dared to say a word.
Lin Shiheng knocked on the table with his hand and looked at the silver with heavy eyes.
"Second brother, go and find out if there are any bandit dens nearby this afternoon."
"Third brother, go to the blacksmith shop in the county and ask how much silver it costs to make an iron spear. If you buy more, it will be cheaper."
"Fourth brother, if you have quick legs, go to the surrounding counties tomorrow to find out how many people are rebelling and what kind of armor they are wearing."
The three sons didn't quite understand what he wanted to do. After agreeing, they asked cautiously: "Dad, why are you asking about this?"
"The armor that the traitor is wearing is not from our orthodox army. He must have followed some rebel army. One shot costs one thousand taels. Either he has a high status now, or his biological father has a high status."
The more he talked, the angrier he became. He slapped the table with his hand. The table made a violent thud, which frightened the Lin family members who were listening quietly and trembled all over. They did not dare to breathe.
But I heard Lin Shiheng say viciously: "I have only heard of a father abandoning his son, but I have never heard of a son abandoning his father. I have raised him for so many years, and he has raised such a white-eyed wolf. I will not tear this white-eyed wolf into pieces." Wan Duan, I will never die in peace!"
The Lin family was frightened by the angry head of the family, and they all held their breath and dared not say anything.
"Fourth, go and find out tomorrow which rebel group this traitor belongs to, and then come back and tell me."
"The second daughter-in-law and the third daughter-in-law will go to the street to buy rice and grain tomorrow and take twenty taels of silver. The fourth daughter-in-law will take your mother to buy fabrics together. Buy black ones for four people, and then buy them for everyone in the family. A set of clothes.”
None of the Lin family could understand what the head of the family wanted to do, but they all agreed and did not dare to shirk it at all.
Mrs. Lin, who was standing in the corner, saw that everyone in the family had been assigned work, so she stood up cautiously.
"Dad, what do you want me to do?"
"you?"
Lin Shiheng turned his head and glanced at her.
He revealed his reason for keeping her without any concealment.
"Just live well."
"Kill that traitor to death!"
