Chapter 507: Family Banquet
Under the dripping eaves, the atmosphere is a little quiet. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The people were holding their breath and did not dare to disturb the moment of reunion of their ancestors and grandchildren.
The third uncle laughed with tears, Sanniang's eyes were slightly wet, and Lin Qianqian couldn't help but hold a handkerchief to stop crying on his face.
Even the little Lin Jingkun didn't know what was going on, blinking his eyes to look at Lin Gaozhu, looking at Lin Yanchao.
When he went to Beijing to catch the exam, although Lin Yanchao was a young man who didn't know what it was like to be sad, after all, he was a human being in two lives, his mood was different after all, and it was normal for him to part, but this time when he returned to his hometown, he couldn't control his emotions when he saw Lin Gaozhu again.
Farewell to the years, in addition to joy, more sentimental, grandfather is old, it is impossible to go out with himself in the future, it is to meet once less than once, see one day less day.
Thinking of this, Lin Yanchao couldn't help but have slightly red eyes, and bowed to Lin Gaozhu on the ground three times in a row.
Lin Gao stomped on his crutches and said to the left and right, "What are you doing here?" Get up. ”
Lin Gao said, and at that moment, the third uncle and several subordinates stepped forward together and picked up Lin Yanchao.
Seeing Lin Yanchao get up, Lin Gao stepped forward to hold his hand and sighed, "It's good to come back, it's good if you can come back." ”
Lin Yanchao had countless words in his chest at the moment, but he didn't know which one to say.
Lin Qianqian saw that Lin Yanchao was embarrassed, and stepped forward to salute Lin Gao.
At this moment, Lin Gao looked at Lin Yanchao, and then looked at Lin Qian's shallow chin, his face was full of relief, and then wiped the corners of his eyes with his hand.
The third uncle wiped his tears and said: "Yanchao, you have been gone for the past two years, but my father has been saying that others see that our family Yanchao has won the champion and serves the Son of Heaven, and the scenery is seen from the outside, but the sky is unpredictable. ”
Lin Yanchao choked in his heart, it was indeed ten times more difficult to be an official than to study, this time he offended Zhang Juzheng, and the officials in the outer weeks avoided him one by one, and he said nothing to the shallow, to others, this is human nature, but is it as he said in his heart.
When he arrived at home and listened to Lin Gao's words, Lin Yanchao's bitterness in his heart seemed to have a place to vent. Home is such a resting place, I don't care if you fly high or not, I just ask if you are tired.
Lin Yanchao also relieved himself at this moment and said: "Grandpa, where are you talking about this, where is there suffering for officials, if this is the case, aren't so many scholars asking for hardship in order to be officials?" ”
Lin Gao's complexion slowed slightly, and Lin Yanchao continued: "Rather, your legs? ”
Lin Gao glanced down, then smiled: "This is not in the way, I accidentally fell a few days ago, so I need someone to help, my body is still fine, and I will recover in a few days." ”
Lin Yanchao heard that this was the case, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, seeing that Lin Gao's face was ruddy, and he knew that he was recovering well, he nodded to Zhanming at the moment.
Zhan Ming willingly handed Lin Yanchao a red box, Lin Yanchao held it with both hands and said to Lin Gao: "This is a century-old Liao ginseng bought by Yanchao and asked someone to make it up for you." ”
Lin Gao frowned and said: "My leg fell, I can't use Liao ginseng to make up for it, just drink some bone broth, Yanchao, you don't have many officials, why spend money indiscriminately, it's too expensive." ”
There was a bit of blame in Lin Gao's words, and the scene suddenly cooled down. Although Lin Yanchao is the champion, Lin Gaozhu is the head of the family after all, and when he said this, everyone present lowered their heads.
Lin Yanchao smiled and said: "Grandpa taught me a lesson, but my grandson thinks that anything that can be bought with money is not really valuable." ”
When he said this, everyone felt comfortable in their hearts. The subordinates looked at Lin Yanchao with a look of admiration.
Lin Gaozhu also nodded, and the third uncle also followed and persuaded him: "Dad, you just accept it, Yanchao traveled thousands of miles, and brought it from Jingshi, this is also his intention." ”
Lin Gaozhu nodded and said, "It's okay." ”
Seeing Lin Gao accept it, the solemn atmosphere on the field dissipated.
When Lin Yanchao and Lin Gaozhu met, Jing Kun had been hiding behind Sanniang and did not speak, and when he saw a smile on his face, he threw himself into Lin Gaozhu's arms.
Lin Gao hugged his little grandson, and next to him was his most prominent grandson, looked left and right, and said with a smile: "Today's family reunion, let's have a family banquet, everyone gets together today, and I also enjoy the joy of family." ”
After speaking, Lin Gao laughed heartily, and everyone laughed too.
Seeing that Lin Gao was happy, Lin Yanchao stepped forward and dragged Lin Gao and said, "Let Yanchao come and hold you." ”
Lin Gao knew that Lin Yanchao was so filial and nodded. Lin Jingkun also said in a milky voice: "Grandpa, let me hold you with my cousin too." ”
Lin Gaozhu was even more happy: "Okay, good." ”
So Lin Yanchao and Lin Jingkun walked into the house with Lin Gao in his arms, and the people on the left and right followed behind them.
I haven't been home for two years, and the scenery at home has changed a lot, Lin Gao pointed and talked to Lin Yanchao about the scenery at home.
As for the resting place, it is located in a hall called Sizhitang.
Lin Yanchao came to the hall with Lin Gao, there were eight armchairs in the hall, chopsticks and chopsticks had been placed on the table, and the eldest lady and Sanniang let the maid serve the food together. The dishes are ordinary six dishes and two soups, all of which are home-cooked vegetables and fresh river food in Fujian.
Lin Gaozhi first asked the third uncle, "What about your eldest brother?" ”
The third uncle muttered, "Maybe it's still in the yamen!" You also know that the eldest brother is a lot of friends. ”
Lin Gao said angrily: "What kind of travel? It's still so out of tune, and I don't know what I'm busy with in the yamen all day, so we don't have to wait for him. ”
The eldest lady looked disgraceful when she heard this, and secretly spat on the uncle.
However, in Lin Yanchao's view, this scene is familiar.
So Lin Gao sat down, Lin Yanchao, and the third uncle sat down with him, and Jing Kun was also able to take a seat, but the eldest mother, Sanniang, and Lin Qianqian did not sit down.
Lin Yanchao said secretly, in the past, the female dependents of the family sat casually, but now there are also the rules of the official eunuchs.
Lin Gao waved his hand and said, "It's a family banquet, just sit down!" ”
After Lin Gao finished speaking, the eldest lady and they answered before sitting down.
Lin Gaozhu said to Lin Yanchao: "You are an official in Beijing, and you can eat the palace banquet, I don't know if the food at home is to your taste?" ”
Lin Yanchao said: "It's all hometown flavors, Yanchao starts from snacks, and nothing can be compared." ”
Lin Gaozhu nodded and said, "That's good, bring rice." ”
The maid who served on the side owed a debt, and then went to bring a large bowl of rice.
Lin Gaozhu smiled at Lin Yanchao and said, "Rice is ginseng soup for me, which is more nourishing than any big fish and meat." ”
Lin Yanchao nodded, and then said to the maid, "Bring me a bowl of rice too." ”
Seeing Lin Gao, Lin Yanchao was like this, the third uncle immediately ordered the wine to be removed, and everyone replaced it with rice.
Such a simple banquet has the appearance of a family banquet. (To be continued.) )
