Lin Xue looked at Li Feng and Yun Yun lovingly. Just as she was about to speak, she heard a knock on the door from outside. Li Qi stood up and walked towards the door. He opened the door and shouted in surprise, "Xiaoxue, mom, dad, eldest brother and second brother are here.

"

Lin Xue's heart moved and she hurried over. Sure enough, it was Hua and the others. Lin Xue leaned next to Hua and held her arm and said, "Mom, why are you here? I originally planned to ask the head of the house to pick you up tomorrow morning.

"

Hua Shi said with a smile, "Your father heard from others that Feng'er was admitted as a scholar, so he insisted on coming over to have a look. He can't wait until tomorrow."

Mr. Lin coughed, his cheeks turned slightly red, and said, "You old woman, what are you saying bad things about me in front of your daughter? Maybe you don't want to come over."

Lin Xue covered her mouth and snickered, then she held Hua's arm with one arm and Old Master Lin with the other, and said, "Father, mother, let's go into the house first. If you two want to discuss it, go in and continue."

Lin Guo and Lin Jie followed with their wives and children. The crowded room was suddenly filled with people. Li Feng and Yun Yun were no longer surprised. They hurriedly took out teacups and tea leaves and made tea for everyone.

Mr. Lin called Li Feng over with a smile and said, "Feng'er is really amazing. He was admitted as a scholar at the age of thirteen. In the future, grandpa will be able to take advantage of you."

Li Feng smiled sheepishly and said modestly, "Grandpa, you think too highly of me. Feng'er just got lucky this time. There are still many places where he is not as good as others."

Mr. Lin patted Li Feng on the shoulder, "Not arrogant, not impetuous, very good." Then he looked at Lin Xue and said, "Xue'er, you gave birth to a good son. If you train him well, he will be successful in the future."

Lin Xue nodded and continued to pour tea for her sister-in-law and brothers, while Yun Yun took her cousins ​​out to play in the yard.

"Xiaoxue, you are so impressive this time. People were talking about Feng'er everywhere along the way, saying that your Li family has a literary star in the sky." Lin Guo said with envy. His son was incompetent.

The master sent him back, saying that rotten wood cannot be carved.

"Yes, this matter has spread to the village. Many people came to our house and said that they wanted to marry their daughter to Feng'er. They also asked the parents to come over and ask what you meant." Lin Guo's wife stared at Lin Xue and asked.

.

Lin Xue was stunned for a moment. Could it be that her sister-in-law also meant this, but the eldest brother didn’t have a daughter. After thinking about it, she said, "Feng'er is still young, so there is no rush to get married. I have discussed with his father and wait until he is sixteen to get married.

The most important thing for Feng'er now is to study hard and not be distracted."

Mrs. Li was a little unwilling. She didn’t have a daughter but she had a niece. Li Feng was a scholar now and would definitely be very successful in the future. She took Lin Xue’s arm and said, “Then we can make a reservation first, eldest sister, I’ll follow you.

You said, my natal family has a niece who is twelve years old this year, just about the same age as Feng'er. It would be most suitable for them to be together, and we are relatives who know each other well, so you can rest assured."

Lin Xue smiled awkwardly, if this was going to happen, she would not book a baby wedding for Li Feng. Besides, relatives knew everything about it, but if they made mistakes, it would be hard to teach them a lesson.

Before he could speak, the second sister-in-law Zhou came over and said, "Sister-in-law, didn't you say that your niece is going to be engaged to the eldest son outside the Bai Yuan? Why do you want to say it to Feng'er? This girl can't

Good match for two husbands."

These words were a bit serious, and Mrs. Li's face became ugly. Lin Xue hurriedly smoothed things over and said, "Brother, second brother, you are all hungry. I will go to the kitchen to cook for you, and second sister-in-law will also go and help me."

Let's go." Lin Xue pulled Zhou out.

"Second sister-in-law, thank you just now, otherwise I really don't know how to tell my sister-in-law." Lin Xue sighed. This person is afraid of being famous and is afraid of being strong. Once he becomes famous, trouble will come to him.

Mrs. Zhou waved her hands and said nonchalantly, "It's okay. My sister-in-law is a nice person, but she takes her family too seriously. She always thinks about her family if she has any good things. Just watch, she will still mention this matter.

of."

Lin Xue walked to the kitchen and started cooking. Because the Lin family came in a hurry, Lin Xue had no preparations. She took a couple of silver and asked Yun Yun to go to the neighbor's house to buy some fresh vegetables.

"Second sister-in-law, you see there is no preparation for today, so I can only let you eat some home-cooked meals.

Zhou quickly filled the big pot with water and said, "It's okay. We are here to see Feng'er. It doesn't matter what we eat. By the way, sister, Yu'er didn't say when we would come over."

"Yu'er sent someone a message and said she would come over tomorrow morning." Lin Xue steamed the rice and started chopping vegetables. "Second sister-in-law, have you met the niece of the eldest sister-in-law? What is her character like?"

"Why do you want to find a wife for Feng'er?" Mrs. Zhou joked, and then said, "I have met her once. She is good-looking but has a bit of a spoiled personality. It is no wonder that there is such a precious daughter in the family, so it is inevitable that she will be spoiled.

"

"Oh, that's right." Lin Xue stopped thinking about it. Originally, it was nothing to hinder her eldest brother from letting Li Feng see his sister-in-law's niece, but someone as cheerful as Mr. Zhou said she was pampering, which only shows that the girl is really

It doesn't work.

"Second sister-in-law, do you think my eldest brother knows about this? Would it be bad if I refused?" Lin Xue really didn't want to destroy the harmony of the Lin family because of this incident.

Mrs. Zhou laughed and said, "Sister, don't worry, you don't know who my eldest brother is. He won't force you to do something you don't want to do. Besides, we still have parents at home. My sister-in-law can't cause any trouble.

But you'd better make plans for Feng'er as soon as possible, even if my sister-in-law gives up, there are still others."

Lin Xue nodded, this matter really cannot be avoided. Zhou is also a diligent person, and the food was quickly prepared. Lin Xue and others set the table and served food to everyone. Because there were too many people, they could only

Dinner is divided into two tables, one for women and one for men.

Sitting next to Lin Xue was Mrs. Li. She pulled Lin Xue's sleeve and said, "Sister, your second sister-in-law was just talking nonsense. My niece is not engaged at all. It was spread by others outside."

"I understand, sister-in-law." A hint of helplessness flashed in Lin Xue's eyes. Mrs. Li really didn't want to give up. Besides, flies don't bite seamless eggs. If her niece was really fine, how could others spread the word like that?

Seeing that Lin Xue had no reaction, Ms. Li kept saying, "Sister, how are you considering the engagement? My niece is a good girl from a thousand, otherwise I would bring her over that day and you can take a look.

, if it works out, let’s settle it first, otherwise my brother and sister-in-law might marry my niece to someone else if we delay it for too long.”

Lin Xue really wanted to say, let's leave it to someone else. Their family didn't care about it, but for Lin Guo's sake, Lin Xue swallowed the words back, put down her chopsticks and said, "Sister-in-law, let's talk about this later.

, I promised Feng'er before that he would make the decision on his own marriage matters. It's not sweet to be too forceful. I don't want Feng'er to resent me for the rest of his life."

"Sister, you are too spoiled to your children. Parents have always made the final decision on marriage. It is the children who have the say. Isn't it because you are unwilling? Seeing that Feng'er is now a scholar, you look down on my niece, a rural girl.

"Li's voice was a little loud, and everyone in the room heard it, and the atmosphere suddenly fell into an embarrassing situation.

Li twitched the corner of her mouth, wanting to explain but not knowing what to say. She squeezed out a smile and said, "Sister, I was joking with you just now. Don't take those words seriously. Feng'er has to be worthy now that he is promising.

The best girl is definitely beyond the reach of my niece."

Lin Xue was furious. When Mrs. Li apologized, she didn't forget to ridicule her again. No matter how good-tempered Lin Xue was, she couldn't bear it any longer. She replied coldly, "That's my sister-in-law's niece Gao Pan. It's obviously my Feng'er Gao Pan."

I can’t afford it, the rich lady must marry the son of a member of the Communist Party of China.”

Li's eyes immediately turned red. When she was at her parents' home, her parents doted on her. After she got married, her father-in-law and mother-in-law got along well with her. Her husband-in-law was even more obedient to her. But she didn't expect that Lin Xue, who had always been gentle, had a temper.

She couldn't even say a few slanderous words. Li Shi threw herself into Lin Guo's arms and cried, "Ms. sir, I introduced Feng'er to Feng'er with good intentions, but I didn't expect that my eldest sister is now in a higher status. She doesn't look down on our family at all."

.”

Lin Xue finally saw what the evil person complained first. After Li finished speaking, she said, "Father, mother, eldest brother, second brother, you all know what kind of person Xue'er is. Don't say that Feng'er is now a scholar."

, even if he becomes an official in the future, I will not..."

"Xue'er, please stop talking. My dearest daughter, Mo Ruomu, how can your father and I not know your temperament? You are not an old fool. You will doubt your own daughter after listening to other people's gossip." Hua stood up.

Walked to Lin Xue.

"Mother, how could you say that to me?" Ms. Li raised her head, her face full of tears, "Ms., my husband, I married into the Lin family for more than ten years to bear children for you and serve your parents-in-law. In the end, I am just an outsider."

Li Qi also walked over from another table and asked in a low voice, "Xiaoxue, what's going on? What's wrong with sister-in-law?"

Lin Xue held his hand and said, "My sister-in-law wanted to marry her niece to Feng'er, but I didn't agree, so she got angry."

Li Qi looked at Mrs. Li in surprise and asked, "What's going on with the member's son?"

"I also heard from the second sister-in-law that the eldest sister-in-law's niece was originally going to marry Bai Yuanwai's son, but I don't know why it didn't happen, and now the eldest sister-in-law wants to marry us Feng'er." Lin Xue glanced at Li with disdain, and others

No, why should she? It's not a garbage collection station.

Mrs. Li was still twitching and saying, "Ms. sir, what kind of face do I have in the Lin family? A married daughter can step on my face. I might as well go back to my parents' home, so as not to bother others by staying here."

.”

"Then you go back to your parents' home. This small temple of our Lin family cannot accommodate a big Buddha like yours. When you go back, talk to your niece about it. A good horse does not deserve two saddles, and a good girl does not marry two husbands." Lin Guo pushed Li away.

Shi, said coldly.
