Chapter 137

The mother-in-law had whispered in Lin Yuan's ear that there was only one thing left to do, so Lin Yuan just helped her mother wipe her hands, and then led Mrs. Lin to the dressing table. Xiudun sat down and said with a smile, "It's just a coincidence that I arrived in the capital at this time, and things on the way are not so accurate."

Mrs. Lin doesn't know everything about the court situation and the current situation.But she didn't expect that Lin Yuan would come back to the capital at this time. She thought that at least Lin Yuan would come back after avoiding this incident in Licheng, so she couldn't help being excited when she saw Lin Yuan. calm down.

But such emotions were quickly swept away from Mrs. Lin's heart after she was led by Lin Yuan to sit down.She quickly understood why Lin Yuan was sent back at this time, and she sighed in her heart for a while.She knew about her own daughter, but Mrs. Lin knew that some people might understand as well as she did, or even better.

Lin Yuan stood behind Mrs. Lin, took the mahogany comb handed over by the servant girl to comb her mother's hair, and asked, "Did mother order someone to prepare breakfast? I just came back, and there is nothing wrong." Eat, you have to bring me to eat later." Mrs. Lin smiled, turned her head slightly and told the mother-in-law a few words, all for the mother-in-law to tell the kitchen to add some Lin Yuan's favorite food on weekdays.

I combed my mother's hair in a bun and picked out the hairpin myself. I asked my mother's opinion and then made a bun for my mother. I looked at Mrs. Lin who was slightly blurred in the bronze mirror but could tell that she was no longer young. But Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Mother is still as good-looking as before."

Mrs. Lin supported the hairpin, paused, but still said with a smile, "Mother is old, and her hair is gray. You are still young, but your elder brother is already in his thirties. How can my mother be young again?" Where are you going? Think about it, when your father and mother have you, they will be in their thirties."

"Sister-in-law again?" Lin Yuan asked in surprise.

Mrs. Lin stood up, turned her head and nodded her, with a look of helplessness and dumbfounding, "How did you grow such a brain? Let me just say, you want to go eight miles away." Stopped After a while, Mrs. Lin said, "My mother was too old when she gave birth to you. It was really thrilling. At your sister-in-law's age, it's better not to give birth. Your elder brother also means the same."

"Mother, you have worked hard." Lin Yuan said, and then took the outer clothes handed over by the maid and put them on for her mother.Seeing that the hem of the skirt was not smooth, Lin Yuan knelt down and smoothed the hem of Mrs. Lin's dress.When she stood up again, she said again, "Eldest sister-in-law has four children, that's enough, second sister-in-law also has four children, and she won't have another child if she thinks about it, and third sister-in-law... Mother's clothes, this style... Oh, mother still has such clothes?"

Mrs. Lin tidied her clothes again, and when she heard Lin Yuan's words, she couldn't help but reached out and nodded her.

"Mother can't have such clothes? What is your mother's identity? The second daughter of the current British Duke in the British government, who knows martial arts, what is it?" Mrs. Lin spoke calmly, taking it for granted, and then continued. Lin Yuan said earlier, "Where do your sisters-in-law need you to worry about? You just take care of your own affairs! After this incident, your mother and father will be able to hold your grandson, right?"

Mrs. Lin specially wore a turquoise green dress today, with the cuffs tucked up and a belt tied around the waist. It was suitable for fighting.Lin Yuan's eyes turned red when she heard this, but she didn't dare to show it in front of her mother, so she deliberately smiled with eyebrows crooked, and said, "Let's not talk about me, the eldest nephew will not let mother be his great-grandmother in a few years. Woolen cloth!"

Lin Yuan deliberately changed the topic, but it was obviously not very effective. Madam Lin immediately refuted her words in the next sentence.

"Your eldest nephew is not even ten years old, how can he marry a wife and have children in a few years? Talk about your business, what's the point of brother Tiexi?"

Lin Yuan smiled and took Mrs. Lin's hand, without saying a word, the two went to the dining hall together.

The sky was bright, and the sun jumped out of the sky, rising higher and higher, and the light became more and more intense.

Lin Hai, Lin Xuan, and Lin Yi have gone to court, and Lin Yi is not in the mansion. There are only a group of women in the Lin mansion and Lin Yuan's nephew, that is, a group of young masters.The eldest brother Xi is not even ten years old, and the youngest can't even speak and walk.

After spending breakfast with her mother, Lin Yuan's three sisters-in-law brought a group of friends over to greet Mrs. Lin.Because there were two little ones who couldn't even walk, the second and third wives of the Lin family didn't bring them out, but at this moment, Lin Yuan's sisters-in-law and nine nephews appeared together, still saying Not too lively.

Brother Xi led a group of brothers around their aunt who suddenly returned to Beijing and returned home, chatting non-stop, asking this and that, very curious, and by the way, he also greeted Qi Haoran who did not show up.Lin Yuan smiled and talked with them, and answered their questions seriously.After not seeing each other for a while, Lin Yuan felt that her little nephews had become cuter again.

Even though everyone in the hall had smiles on their faces, the dignified atmosphere couldn't be concealed after all. It was just blocking the children's faces and they didn't want them to notice something was wrong so quickly.But the superficial relaxation didn't last long, and the atmosphere became dull again.The children felt something was wrong, and they were just confused for a while. Brother Xi was a little older and the eldest grandson. He started teaching things early and learned a lot. Now he quietly comforted the younger brothers.

Mrs. Lin glanced at the crowd, then smiled and called her two younger grandchildren to her side, and then told the second and third daughters-in-law, "Go and bring all the children here, and let the nanny come with you. The things that need to be used are also packed and taken care of in my house."

The second and third wives of the Lin family didn't dare to be negligent at this time, and hurried away, and after a while, they brought the two sleeping children to Mrs. Lin's room, and told the nanny to take good care of them.After completing this task, Mrs. Lin said to the other older grandchildren, "Gentlemen can't come to teach today, so why don't you read books and practice calligraphy by yourself?"

Lin Yuan watched her nephews obediently nodding in agreement, so Mrs. Lin asked the maidservant to take them down.As Lin Xi, the eldest of the grandchildren, brother Xi was left behind, and the only ones left in the living room were the two brothers who were only three years old and hadn't started reading and calligraphy yet.Nine-year-old Lin Xi stood beside his mother, looking at everyone in the hall with a pair of clear eyes, but with a straight face, as if he knew what was going to happen.

The hall became quiet all of a sudden, but a servant girl hurried in from outside, and everyone in the hall reported, "The second grandma of the Fu family is here." When the voice fell, Mrs. Wang had already stepped into the hall. , she circled around the crowd first, and seeing everyone looking at her with serious faces, she suddenly laughed.

Xiao Wang noticed Lin Yuan, and first asked in surprise, "Little Ayuan is back?" Lin Yuan received the hint from her little aunt, walked towards Xiao Wang with a smile, and called out. "Little aunt," nodded again, "I just arrived in the capital this morning, so I'll come back to visit my mother first."

"I don't have anything to do. I just came to see your mother." Xiao Wang said to Lin Yuan with a smile, explaining to others, and said, "I'll be leaving in a while." She took Lin Yuan and sat down again. , Xiao Wang herself walked up to Mrs. Lin, held her second sister's hand and said, "Second Master asked me to bring a few people to the Lin Mansion, so it would be helpful to help, lest any troubles outside would spread into the Lin Mansion." .It's just that he doesn't have many people to mobilize, and he can't allocate a few, so the second sister keeps it, and can help a little."

Tears flashed in Mrs. Lin's eyes. No matter how lightly Mrs. Wang spoke, she couldn't cover up the hardships involved.At this time, I specially came to Lin's mansion, how could it be so casual that I want to come and see it on weekdays?He also specially sent soldiers from the martial arts team over, thinking that the members of the Lin family were all civil servants.Mrs. Lin couldn't help being moved by this kindness.

Seeing that her sister was about to cry, Mrs. Wang quickly changed the subject, looked Mrs. Lin up and down, smiled and said, "My sister is wearing this dress, but I don't remember how long I haven't seen my sister doing it." This kind of dress, but it's still as heroic as I remember, it hasn't changed at all."

Seeing that her mother was going to be unable to bear it anymore, Lin Yuan hurriedly followed her little aunt's words and added, "Yes, I also told my mother this morning that she doesn't look old at all."

As a result, Mrs. Lin really stopped crying, although it was because she knew that she should try her best to restrain herself, so she gave Lin Yuan a feigned anger look, and said, "I just know how to tease your mother."

Xiao Wang did as she said, and left Lin's mansion not long after.Before leaving, she held Mrs. Lin's hand and persuaded her second sister in a low voice, "Second sister, don't worry too much, everything will be fine. Anyway, parents are still here, just for the sake of father , we'll be fine."

Mrs. Lin nodded, but she understood that such words were just a simple consolation. If they were really so light, they wouldn't have to put on a serious posture like they are now.

Not long after Mrs. Wang left, Lin Yuan's eldest aunt came again, under the orders of the British lady-in-law, that is, Lin Yuan's grandfather and grandmother, and also under the instructions of Lin Yuan's first and second uncles.Lin Yuan's eldest aunt came to visit once and left a group of soldiers for the Lin family, using the same excuse as Xiao Wang's.
