The fierce wife is the happy head of the family

Chapter 20 Mother Lin's Teachings

A while after Mrs. Gao left, Tang Qinglu held her chin and looked at Mrs. Lin, and said playfully, "Mother, Mrs. Gao is all about marrying the Lin family. I think she's ready to ask, but you're the one who stopped me. , she will be sad for many days!"

Mrs. Lin smiled, grabbed her hand and walked into the yard, and said earnestly, "Qinglu, you have to remember, no matter where you go, don't lower your figure, if you are humble, others will bully you .It doesn't matter anymore, others will not be able to guess you."

"Mother, I know, you taught me!" Tang Qinglu nodded.

"When I first hugged you, you smiled at me. I was so happy at that time. I held you all the time, and I didn't want to let you go at night. Your father still laughed at me for holding on to the baby like a child and not letting go. Let me just say, isn't Qinglu our baby?"

Mrs. Lin led Tang Qinglu to recall while walking, and Tang Qinglu listened quietly.

"Outsiders say that our family treats you well because your life is prosperous, old man. Even if there is no such relationship, you are a child, and we will treat you the same."

Over the years, the Lin family's business has grown bigger and bigger. Many people say that it is because Tang Qinglu has made the Lin family prosperous.However, the Lin family knew that it was really not easy for the Lin family to get to where they are today. There is no shortcut at all, and they have come step by step.

"Mother, I know!" Tang Qinglu said with a smile, holding Mrs. Lin's wrist, "Sister Zhiyang is the best proof! Parents treat her like their own daughter, and even found her a husband in the capital. The year before last I went to the capital to play with my eldest brother, but sister Zhiyang held me tightly and had to wait for my brother-in-law to come back before letting me go. She said that if there were no parents, she would not be able to marry so well, so let me not disobey my parents. .”

Lin Zhiyang was an abandoned child. Lin Jingtang and Mrs. Lin met on the way home when they went back to their natal family.According to Mrs. Lin's recollection, in the middle of winter, in a wilderness, they heard a baby crying, and the sound was so miserable that the relatives accompanying the Lin family said it was terrible, and urged the groom to leave quickly.

Mrs. Lin was pregnant with Lin Zhiping at the time, probably because of the relationship between the future mother. Mrs. Lin couldn't hear such sad cries, so she stopped the carriage and wanted to go down to have a look.Lin Jingtang refused to let her go down, he got out of the carriage, followed the sound and saw a baby in the grass under the road.

Lin Jingtang wanted to go down to pick up the child, but others persuaded him: Don't worry about it, don't cause bad luck.Lin Jingtang said that wherever the child had bad luck, he went down and hugged it.

At that time, the child was wearing thin clothes and wrapped in a large ball of rice stalks, his face was red from the cold, and he might die later.Lin Jingtang's heart ached at a glance.He has several children (by concubines). As a father, he can't bear to see his children being left in the wild.

He hurriedly carried the child into the carriage, and Mrs. Lin was so distressed that she held the child tightly.

Later, they lived in that village for half a month, with a radius of hundreds of miles. Lin Jingtang searched everywhere for the whereabouts of the child's parents, but found nothing.

People in the village say that the child's parents are not human, and even if they are found, they may not be good to the child.They decided to take the baby home.With the help of the village chief, they obtained the consent of the county magistrate and took the child home.The first thing they did after returning home was to take the child into the ancestral hall and name it "Lin Zhiyang" in the genealogy.

Under Mrs. Lin's care, Lin Zhiyang has grown up beautifully, and under Mrs. Lin's discipline, she is also a dignified and generous housekeeper.

Once when the Lin family went to the capital for a visit, Lin Jingtang, the son of a businessman friend surnamed Jiang, fell in love with Lin Zhiyang, and Lin Zhiyang also liked that person, which made the marriage a reality.

Lin Zhiyang knows how to be grateful. Although the journey is far away, she will come to the Lin's house for a month and a half every year, and she often asks someone to bring things to the Lin's house.

For the old man's birthday banquet, Lin Zhiyang was about to give birth to her third child in two months. She was going to come, but no matter how bad it was, the Jiang family would send someone to come.Mrs. Lin considered that the old lady was too old to be in contact with the darkroom, so she wrote a letter three months ago to ask her not to come, and she also said that she went back and forth to ask her husband's family not to come, so they didn't come. However, the gift came early It was placed in the old man's yard.

"Zhiyang, she probably rushed back after giving birth. I often told her about this child before she got married. Don't always forget about her mother's family. The in-law's family will have opinions. Hey, she married so far away, tossing back and forth, Your father and I feel a little guilty!" Mrs. Lin sighed, "However, Zhihe and the three brothers will also visit them in the capital, and it is nothing to come and go. My husband also said that the Jiang family values ​​love and righteousness. I won't say anything, I will only comfort Zhiyang to go back to her mother's house more often."

"That's not it!" Tang Qinglu agreed, "Sister Zhiyang's mother-in-law told me that she wanted her little nephew to live in our house! This way the relationship between the two families will be deeper."

"My mother-in-law is really considerate." Mrs. Lin was very moved, "Qinglu, you must remember that after you get married, you must go back to your natal family to see more. Your natal family is your reliance! Also, first generation relatives, second representatives , after three generations, it will be gone, you brothers and sisters don’t have much contact, and after three generations, you will stop kissing.”

"Mother, I know." Tang Qinglu leaned on Mrs. Lin's arm.

"What a child!" Mrs. Lin smiled dotingly. In her eyes, Tang Qinglu was just a child.

There are many flowers planted in Mrs. Lin's yard, and they are blooming beautifully at this time.Tang Qinglu let go of Mrs. Lin, picked a small pink flower from it and handed it to Mrs. Lin, "Mother, no wonder everyone always likes to run to your place. With all the flowers in the house, I feel so happy! How long have you kept them? "

Mrs. Lin took the little flower, put it next to Tang Qinglu's ear, and led Tang Qinglu to squat among the flowers to weed, "Qinglu, this person, I can't explain why. Some people can't grow fat, you give him Gold, silver and jewellery, he will even plot against your gold and jade articles."

Tang Qinglu liked to mess up flowers with Madam Lin since she was a child. When she was a child, she dug up the soil and fertilized it very seriously. When she grew up, she always liked to make trouble and picked flowers beyond recognition.

"Father also said that the truth in the world is sometimes unclear." Although Tang Qinglu was playing with the dirt, she was still listening.

"No, but, any stage has its own law. Follow that law, and you will be able to live comfortably. If you marry a rich family, you have to be gentle and docile, courteous and considerate, and don't fight for anything Don’t grab it, and no one will give you what others give you. If you suffer a little grievance and endure it, you have to let others know. One day you will suffer a lot of grievances. It’s so good to cry for them to see. Afterwards, I should apologize generously.”

The Zhou family is not a harsh family, so how could I tell Qinglu the rules of survival of the big family?Mrs. Lin was taken aback for a moment. She was often worried that her daughters would not marry well, and the in-laws she helped them choose were all related.If Tang Qinglu really married Zhou Wenqian, she didn't have to think too much.
