After the woman finished speaking, she covered her mouth with a veil and laughed.The others also echoed, saying that Lin Lang was smart and good-looking, they all got up and walked to Lin Zhou's side to tease Lin Lang, and also gave a meeting gift they had prepared by the way.

Jia Min glanced at the woman, smiled and said nothing, and gave Lu mother a wink, Lu mother stepped forward and said: "Third old lady, it is better to let the servants come to hug my uncle, you are old, don't go out Tired of you!"

Lin Zhou handed over Lin Lang to Lin Lang with some reluctance.After everyone was seated, Mrs. Lin Zhou winked at Mrs. Lu beside her, and Mrs. Lu glanced at Mrs. Fang and the other three concubines and daughters-in-law. They got up, and Mrs. Lu led them to kneel on the futon prepared by the maid. Kowtow to Jia Min.Among these people was the calculating woman just now. She was the first wife of the patriarch's youngest son, her maiden name was Qiu, and she was the daughter of a tea shop owner in Hangzhou.

Jia Min cried out and asked Mo Lan to distribute the prepared gifts to them, each with a hairpin inlaid with gold and jade.The nieces and daughters-in-law finished kowtowing, and then the nieces and granddaughters-in-law kowtowed to Jia Min, and Jia Min also gave them a meeting gift, which was a pair of gold bracelets each.

The patriarch of the Lin family had nine grandsons in total. The first family, Lu family, had two sons and no concubines. The second family was a concubine with a concubine and a concubine. The third family was also a concubine with only one concubine. , there is also a concubine whose mother died young and was raised by Fang's side. Wufang is also a concubine, but because he is the youngest son of the patriarch, he is also favored by the patriarch. child.Four of the patriarch's nine grandsons are already married and have children. Among them, Dafang's eldest grandson and Sifang's sixth son have already gained fame as scholars.The patriarch's five sons were all unsuccessful. When the grandsons were young, the patriarch spent a lot of money to find the most famous Chu Juren in Suzhou to sit in his house and teach the grandsons homework.Fortunately, the two grandchildren among them are more competitive, and now they can be regarded as well-known scholars in Suzhou City.

The patriarch's branch also had a younger brother who was a concubine, but he had passed away for many years. His son lived in a three-entry courtyard behind the patriarch's house, and they were not allowed to visit Lin Ruhai and Jia Min today.

"Our Lin family can be regarded as a prominent family in Suzhou. The population is prosperous, and the families get along relatively harmoniously. Each family also has its own livelihood. After dragging the blessings of the fifth uncle and the seventh cousin, we can live well! There is a problem. Yes, brothers and sisters will also help out with ideas and efforts. When we go to the ancestral hall on New Year's Eve to worship our ancestors, our brothers and sisters can see them, and then let them pay their respects one by one!"

"At that time, I will ask my third sister-in-law to remind me!"

"That's natural! There are five granddaughters here, let them kowtow to their siblings too!"

Five beautiful girls came forward to kowtow to Jia Min, one of them looked fourteen or fifteen years old and was the oldest among the five.She is the only granddaughter of the patriarch, the youngest daughter of the Lu family, named Jingyi.The other four are concubine daughters born to concubine sons, and of course their status cannot be compared with Jingyi.

Jia Min gave Lin Jingyi the same gift as the four grandnieces and grandnieces, a pair of gold bracelets, and a pair of silver bracelets for each of the other four grandnieces.

"My eldest granddaughter is the one who pleases me the most. She was raised under my knees since she was a child. Seeing that she has some qualifications, I invited a female gentleman to teach in the mansion. My younger siblings can see if she can still be on the stage?"

Jia Min saw that Lin Jingyi's behavior was not bad, her face was like peach blossoms, but she was too thin and thin. Most of the girls in Jiangnan also have this delicate appearance, but Jia Min was born in a noble family, and her actions The rules are naturally perfect, but women like this kind of disease are so beautiful that they can't like it.Seeing that Lin Zhou's words spoke highly of this eldest granddaughter, Jia Min followed Lin Zhou's words and boasted: "Sister-in-law Santang is really lucky. The daughters-in-law and granddaughter-in-law married in this family are all outstanding, and the daughters-in-law who raised her are all outstanding. The granddaughters are also good. I saw that Jingyi is a girl who knows how to read and respect, so it can be seen that she has been with the third sister-in-law since she was a child, and the third sister-in-law took great pains to teach her."

"Hahaha! My siblings think highly of me too. I'm old. I don't have the energy to teach my grandchildren. One is that the child is quite smart, and the other is that the teacher teaches well!" Mrs. Lin Zhou couldn't close her eyes happily. mouth, Lu Shi was also very happy because Jia Min praised his daughter.One must know that Jia Min came from the capital where the nobles gather, and she herself comes from the family of a duke, and now she is ordered by the county lord, and if she can get a compliment from Jia Min, Lin Jingyi can choose a better husband's family .

Jia Min saw a confident smile on Lin Jingyi's face, looked at the other four girls proudly, stood beside Lin Zhoushi again, took Lin Zhoushi's arm and said coquettishly: "Grandmother, don't make fun of grandma. It's a daughter, in front of the seventh uncle and grandma, don't you let the seventh uncle and grandma laugh at you?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Jia Min caught sight of a slightly smaller girl who secretly pursed her lips from the corner of her eye. This girl was the most beautiful looking among these people.Jia Min looked away calmly, and asked Lin Zhou with a smile: "Is the eldest granddaughter of Mrs. San Tang married?"

Lin Zhou patted Lin Jingyi's hand with a smile and said: "She is not ready yet, and she is planning to visit her after the Chinese New Year!"

"Grandmother! What are you talking about?" Lin Jingyi blushed and lowered her head, coquettishly said in a small voice.

Seeing Lin Jingyi's demeanor, Jia Min couldn't help getting goosebumps all over her body. She picked up the tea bowl and took two sips of tea to conceal it.

At this time, news came from the front yard that the patriarch asked all the female relatives to pay a visit to Lin Ruhai, and after the visit, they would have lunch in the flower hall.

Jia Min and Lin Zhou's family walked in front together, followed by other female family members. They walked all the way to the hall in the front yard. The patriarch and Lin Ruhai were sitting at the top of the hall, and the descendants were sitting at the bottom. Seeing Lin Zhou When Shi brought Jia Min in, they all got up and saluted.When I looked up, I saw Jia Min's appearance and demeanor, and they were all stunned on the spot. It's not hard to find someone with an extraordinary appearance like Jia Min in the Jiangnan area, but Jia Min's dignified atmosphere is not something ordinary people can raise. Yes, all the men present lamented Lin Ruhai's good life. Even without a powerful father, he was able to marry such a beautiful woman. What a blessing!

Lin Ruhai came over and bowed to Mrs. Lin Zhou, "Sister-in-law Santang is good! I haven't seen sister-in-law Santang for so many years, she still looks so good!"

Mrs. Lin Zhou returned the courtesy and said, "Seventh Cousin, you are welcome! Seventh Cousin is so lucky, now he has a beautiful wife and son, and Wu Shuquan knows it, so he can see clearly!"
