Provoking the villain, madly criticizing the tyrant for kidnapping my sedan chair for the bridal cha
Chapter 227 There is such a good grandson-in-law
Mr. Lin's eyes were shining with blazing light, his breathing was slightly rapid, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised. He was looking forward to and yearning for it.
In the Longlin Kingdom, those who passed the examination were qualified to be officials and could be exempted from the land tax of 300 acres.
As long as one member of the Lin family is elected, all farmland under the current name will be tax-free.
"Grandpa, we are spread across the country, and we haven't had a scholar in both disciplines for many years!"
Hearing his granddaughter's words, Mr. Lin remembered the admiration and compliments he received from everyone when he hosted a flowing banquet for his second son and eldest grandson.
"Yes, it has been many years since there was a double scholar. Your second uncle and your eldest brother passed the exam at the same time."
"Grandpa, the three scholars in our family are all very talented. With books annotated by the Imperial Master, and if they enter the best academy in Qingyang City, they have a good chance of passing the examination."
"Xia Xia, grandpa, think about it again!"
"Grandpa, if you and grandma don't come with us, my second uncle and eldest brother won't be able to worry about you and won't be able to concentrate on studying, so the gain outweighs the loss!"
"That's definitely not possible!" Mr. Lin spoke urgently. After finishing speaking, he realized that he had already made a choice in his heart.
Mr. Lin was silent for a long time and then made a decisive decision: "Xia Xia, then grandpa will go find your grandpa Qingquan, your third grandpa and the others now."
"I'll help you go with me!" Lin Lixia got up and got the old man's cloak and hat, then went into the house to find a lantern and light it.
As soon as the grandfather and grandson walked out of the door, they met Ji Shen coming out of the workshop.
"Grandpa Lin, let me help you!"
Ji Shen didn't wait for his grandfather and grandson to refuse, and already held the other arm of the old man of the Lin family.
"Grandpa Lin, your bone-setting skills were taught to you by Dr. Zheng Jun of the Zhenbei Army, right?"
"Do you know Dr. Zheng?" The old man of the Lin family was instantly diverted and allowed Ji Shen to help him move forward.
"No, the master has passed away a long time ago! Are you talking about the master's son?"
"It's his eldest grandson!" Ji Shen said: "His son died in the military camp three years ago."
The old man of the Lin family sighed, his eyes showing deep guilt, his eyebrows furrowed, and his tone of voice was very slow.
"My master wanted to keep me in the military camp back then, but I was greedy for life and feared death, so I insisted on coming back here. The master was very disappointed in me!"
"Grandpa, what you said is wrong!" Lin Lixia saw that the old man had a knot in his mind.
"If you hadn't come back here, General Lu's legs would not have been saved, and the Dragon Scale Kingdom would have lost a victorious general."
Hearing his granddaughter's words, Mr. Lin was dumbfounded, "Can this be considered?"
"Of course you can!" Ji Shen raised the corners of his mouth slightly and continued following Lin Lixia's words:
"Zheng Yesu has seen my leg injury, and even he said that your skills are better than his legitimate grandson!"
After being recognized by his master's grandson, the old man of the Lin family was filled with surprise and felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart.
Seeing that the old man was relieved, Lin Lixia took advantage of the situation and said, "Grandpa, you have to believe that everything is the best arrangement! It will get better and better when we go to Qingyang City."
"Yes, everything is the best arrangement!" Ji Shen looked at Lin Lixia out of the corner of his eye. It was also the best arrangement for the two of them to meet!
Then why didn't he meet her in his previous life?
"Lin Lixia, why did you go to such a high place to dig wild vegetables?"
Lin Lixia paused.
"Thinking reversely, it's hard to climb the mountain. There are fewer people going there, but there must be more wild vegetables! Maybe we can dig up valuable medicinal materials. In the end, the biggest reward is picking you up!"
When she heard Lin Lixia say that he was her biggest gain, Ji Shen's smile grew bigger and bigger, completely forgetting the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two when they first met.
"Everything is the best arrangement!" Mr. Lin thought thoughtfully. The Lin family had been peaceful for decades, and the two people began to change after they picked up the two granddaughters.
Thinking of this, Mr. Lin couldn't help but think of Lin Xiaoxue.
The child he raised as his own granddaughter.
Before getting married, the Lin family spent all their savings to give her children as dowry.
The child who almost caused the death of the Lin family
She is not his biological granddaughter.
This made him feel uncomfortable.
"Xia Xia, counting the time, how long will it take for Xiaoxue's child to be born?"
"After the new year!" Just by hearing the old man's depressed voice, Lin Lixia knew what the old man was thinking.
Last time, the old man wanted to break off the relationship with Lin Xiaoxue because he was concerned that Lin Xiaoxue was pregnant.
I am asking this now because I am afraid that I will break up with Lin Xiaoxue after she gives birth to her child.
Children have no right to choose their parents.
It is better to cultivate kindness than to give birth to kindness.
She understands these principles.
But there is really no relationship between her and Lin Xiaoxue's siblings.
In addition, what Chen Juhua and Lin Xiaoxue did caused the Lin family to suffer such a big loss. She was not so magnanimous as to accept these children.
"Grandpa, those children from now on will have nothing to do with our Lin family. Let them fend for themselves. There is no need to write a letter to break off the relationship with her."
"Xia Xia, grandpa is afraid that she won't give in, and he is even more afraid that she will bring trouble to our Lin family!"
"Grandpa, Gong Xingtai has been demoted to Nanxicheng as the county magistrate. That place is constantly in turmoil all year round, which is enough for him to keep busy."
Mr. Lin was silent for a moment: "County magistrate, that's still an official. Our Lin family still can't afford to offend him."
Lin Lixia laughed.
"Grandpa, it takes more than two months to go back and forth from Nanxicheng to our Plum Blossom City. Being so far apart is like two worlds."
"Xia Xia, he will return to Beijing."
"Grandpa, please relax. The county magistrate of Longlin Kingdom will be evaluated every three years. When he has the opportunity to return to Beijing, my second brother may be a senior official than him."
"This...is this impossible?" Mr. Lin was both delighted and unbelievable.
Seeing what Mr. Lin was thinking, Ji Shen followed Lin Lixia's words and comforted him.
"Grandpa Lin, he made meritorious deeds as soon as he went to the border in the beginning of spring. In less than half a year he became the head of a hundred households, then the head of a thousand households, and within a few years he became a general."
Lin Lixia nodded repeatedly.
"Grandpa, listen, General Lu said that my second brother has a chance to become a general. You have to have confidence in my second brother."
"It would be great for your second brother to be the head of a hundred households." Mr. Lin said this, but in his heart he was full of expectations for his grandson to become a general.
I feel much better than when I went out!
Knocking on the door of Lin Qingquan's house, the other party looked at the old man's expression and was stunned for a long time.
Lin Qingquan was very confused, how could his fifth brother still laugh when such a humiliating event happened to the Lin family.
"Fifth brother, sit down in the room quickly!"
"Qingquan, my Xia Xia is taking us to live in Qingyang City. She is buying a courtyard next to Qingyang Academy. She said she would hire the best teachers for her second uncle and eldest brother to prepare for the imperial examination!"
"Fifth brother, this is a good thing!" Lin Qingquan's eyes were full of envy. No wonder his fifth brother could laugh. If it were him, he would also smile from ear to ear.
One less annoying daughter-in-law, one less grandson and granddaughter who is not close to him, a big house in Qingyang City, and a chance for his son and grandson to pass the civil service examination. This is getting better and better!
"Fifth brother, a big house in Qingyang City will cost a lot of money, right?"
Mr. Lin couldn't hide his pride, "I don't know, this kid Xia Xia set it all up!"
"I'm so envious of fifth brother! I have such a wonderful granddaughter," Lin Qingquan looked at Lin Lixia with envy, then looked at Ji Shen who was supporting Mr. Lin, "And such a wonderful grandson-in-law!"
