Qinghe Pastoral

The case of the Liu family is over, but the merits of the Lin and Liu families have become the biggest focus of discussion in Qinghe Village recently.And as the discussion heated up, all kinds of unconfirmed rumors spread more and more widely. The Lin and Liu families were unbearably disturbed, and they seldom went out because of their leisure work.

Regarding all kinds of rumors, Lin Mu used to just laugh it off, because he himself grew up with rumors.But when the incident of Lin Dashan's family came out, he realized that rumors are not just rumors, sometimes they can become invisible sharp knives, which can easily end a person's life and destroy a family that could have been happy.He always felt that something needed to be done to change this situation, but he had no idea for a while.

Because of Lin Dashan's incident, Lin Sheng finally fell ill after two days of depression.Lin Sheng has always been in good health, and he doesn't necessarily suffer from headaches and fever all year round, but such a person, when he gets sick, becomes violent, and Lin Mu has more energy than he wants to take care of Lin Sheng.

At noon of this day, Lin Sheng's body was getting better, and he felt weak all over after lying down for a few days. Lin Mu wanted to help him out to sit under a tree. The mother and son were about to help him up, one on the left and the other on the right, but saw the man who had gone out early in the morning. Ji Ruixiu came back by chance.

He carried Lin Sheng on his back and walked to the crabapple tree in the courtyard. After October, the weather gradually cooled down, and after Lin Sheng became lame, he couldn't bear the cold even more. Lin Mu took a blanket and covered Lin Sheng. On his lap, the two sat down beside him.

"Why did Li Zheng call you to go?"

Early this morning, Li Zheng's parents and sons came to invite Ji Ruixiu, saying that they had to discuss important matters in the village, and they went all morning.

"It's because of the recent affairs of the Lin and Liu families. Through this matter, a few village rules have been added."

The matter of the Lin and Liu families has become such a big mess, regardless of how much dust this matter has brought to Qinghe Village, the villagers of Qinghe Village alone are talking about it a lot, it is not a good sign if it goes on like this.

Seeing Lin Mu and Lin Sheng's curious faces, Ji Ruixiu told what happened at Li Zheng's house today.

Early this morning, Li Zheng invited some talkative people in the village to discuss matters with the elders of various families. Although Li Zheng didn't have much talent and learning, he was really willing to do practical things.

Qinghe Village has been bred for hundreds of years. Although small frictions in the village are unavoidable, there has never been such a major incident in the hundreds of years. This incident is like an opening, which made Li Zheng's hesitant heart firm.

As for this matter, these people with considerable status in Qinghe Village also have their own ideas. Some people even think that Lin Dashan's family should be driven out of Qinghe Village. There is no conclusion on these debates for a long time.

In the end, Li Zheng said that this complete tragedy has completely wiped out Liu Dafu's and Lin Dashan's families. The elders in the family are dead, and the rest are innocent people.

The matter is over, but Qinghe Village can't turn a blind eye to it.When it comes down to the source, all of these are just a few embarrassing remarks from Liu Dafu's family. These remarks may not cause much trouble in normal times, but at that time they became a bayonet hanging on the neck of Lin Dashan's family. , a radical idea, a life that can be understood by a thought that can't be thought of for a while.

With Lin Dashan's family committing suicide by throwing himself into the river, the matter went out of control. In the end, the Lin and Liu families and even the entire Qinghe Village paid a painful and huge price. Can't be staged.

According to what Li Zheng said, rumors may not be so lethal every time, but the origin is indeed it. In order to avoid similar tragedies from happening again, and to correct the atmosphere of spreading nonsense in Qinghe Village, Li Zheng proposed Add this aspect of management.

From now on, all the people in Qinghe Village will be fined money if they spread rumors to each other. No matter how the government decides, they will be expelled from Qinghe Village.

As soon as such a proposal came out, there was a lot of debate among the people present, and there must be some who were opposed to it while others were indistinguishable. But as Ji Ruixiu stopped being silent and spoke up to support Li Zheng's decision, the matter was finally settled.

After hearing this, Lin Mu and his son saw joy in their faces. Today's Lin Mu is no longer at the age that can be seriously injured by rumors, but who can guarantee that there will be no second Lin Mu in Qinghe Village, and there will be no second similar incident. However, it is not a bad thing to prevent problems before they happen, and it is also a good thing for the atmosphere of Qinghe Village if there are restrictions.

In the afternoon, Li Zheng rang the big bell in the square to announce the matter in public. Suddenly, the square became lively like a vegetable market entrance, but such a proposal has been approved by the elders of various families, and the matter of the Lin and Liu families is too much. It's shocking. Although I feel that this kind of punishment is a bit severe, I feel that it is reasonable to follow.

After the announcement of this matter, under the witness of the villagers, Lin Zi'an wrote this article and added this article to the village regulations of Qinghe Village.

When Lin Zian put down his pen, Lin Kui listened to Lin Zian's words in a daze, looked at the sky where the red sun was high, and finally his eyes were red.And those people in the village who don't like to talk about right and wrong just feel happy, without those gossips, presumably Qinghe Village will be much more peaceful in the future.

In the first few days when the village rules were first implemented, some women who liked to talk about right and wrong for fear of minor incidents didn’t know whether they didn’t realize the seriousness of the matter or didn’t control their mouths. After being caught several times and fined money, they finally realized the truth seriousness.

When Qinghe Village ushered in the first snow, the rumors in the village gradually decreased, there was less gossip, and there were fewer troubles.

As the new year is approaching, Wei Qian's elder brother came to Qinghe Village for the wedding of Lin Zi'an and Wei Qian.

From the moment Ziwei Qian decided to send Lin Zian back to Qinghe Village, he made up his mind that he would be the only one in his life, and the two of them have been very affectionate since they made up their minds.With the marriage of Ji Ruixiu and Lin Mu, Wei Qian mentioned this matter more than once, and the arrival of Wei Qian's eldest brother this time puts this matter on the bright side.

That night, Lin Xue prepared a sumptuous banquet and invited Lin Sheng, Lin Yue, Lin Wei's family, close relatives, uncles and brothers to discuss their marriage behind closed doors.

Wei Qian's elder brother just passed 40 years old, he was at the prime age for a man, and he was Minister of Rites at that time. Speaking of which, when he first entered the official career, he was still under the hands of Ji Ruixiu's father. The two fathers were also close friends. We often meet each other from time to time.

I haven't seen him for many years, but Ji Ruixiu seems to be an upright man. Last year, the boxes of exquisite flower teas made Ji Ruixiu famous in the capital. At that time, Ji Ruixiu's childhood talent was mentioned again. It was beautiful for a while.

"The boy who was famous all over the capital has now grown into a man. Uncle Ji has a spirit in heaven, and he must be gratified."

"Master Shangshu has praised you."

"Hey, what is your name, Lord Shangshu? We will be relatives in the future. My third brother is not sure. He is 30 years old. The elders in the family are very worried. Fortunately, I met Zi'an. Come on, This cup is my respect to all of you."

With just a few words, everyone's feelings were drawn closer, and even Lin Sheng and the others relaxed a lot.

Lin Xue's drinking capacity is average, I don't know if it's because of being too happy tonight, after drinking one cup after another, his face turned red not long after.

He stood up with a glass of wine, and said to Wei Qian and his elder brother: "My family has been filial and smart since An'an was a child, and he obviously has a bright future, but he has been dragged down by me as a father."

His eyes were red when he said this, Lin Zian was about to stand up to comfort him, but he saw Lin Xue chuckled and said: "Don't talk about these bad things, God bless my son to meet a lover, in the future , Zi'an, please take care of me, I'll take this drink, you two can do whatever you want." After speaking, he drank the small glass of wine in one gulp.

Wei Qian's family knew about Lin Zi'an's family, right and wrong in the past are useless now, after all, Wei Qian can meet the one he loves, and he won't be lonely all his life, so Wei Qian's family can feel relieved.

After Lin Xue drank a few more glasses of wine, he was already starting to feel dizzy, and he talked too much. He wandered over to Lin Sheng with the bottle in his hand, and Lin Mu hurriedly got up and gave up the seat next to him.

Lin Xue filled his wine glass and filled it for Lin Sheng, then raised his glass and said, "Brother, I was sorry, I was sorry for you, I was sorry for my sister-in-law, and I was sorry for that little nephew who was not born. , the younger brother is confused but the elder brother is not, the kindness of the elder brother, the younger brother, the younger brother will be remembered in the heart, this cup respects you and sister-in-law."

Thinking about it, Lin Xue had been holding these words in his heart for a long time, and he said them out of alcohol tonight.As far as Lin Sheng and his wife were concerned, they did complain about Lin Xue in the past, but that one knife was enough to repay everything, kindness and resentment, everyone is dead and scattered, what else is there to care about?

"Brother also respects you for saving your life, we brothers did it."

The two brothers stopped talking and drank the wine in their hands in one gulp.

After drinking for three rounds, Lin Xue was already drunk and passed out. This was the most presumptuous time he had suffered in his own family. Maybe his heart was too bitter to say it before, but tonight he said it out of joy and alcohol. Lots of truth.

Although Lin Mu knew that Lin Xue was to blame for everything today, but it looked a little pitiful. In the world, a small decision is an irreparable mistake in a lifetime. The dead have passed away, but the living still have to blame themselves Regret to live on.

The night is already very deep, snowflakes are flying outside the house, but inside the house is a scene of wine glasses colliding, beautiful and joyful.

After negotiating the date, Wei Qian's elder brother was busy with affairs, and after staying in Qinghe Village for two days, he embarked on his journey back to Beijing.In the new year of this year, Wei Qian will take Lin Zian and Lin Xue to the capital, which can be regarded as a serious meeting between the two elders.

After the heavy snow melted again and again, the new year came as scheduled, and Lin Mu's family went to the second room to see him off.Before he left, Qian Weiqian repeatedly invited his family to go to Kyoto to celebrate the New Year. However, considering the distance between the hatchback and the severe cold in Kyoto, Lin Sheng went to suffer in vain, and the date of their wedding was set in August. It would be the same if they went again Therefore, he declined Wei Qian's kindness.
