Lin Jue said: "It's just a small request, it's not about me, it's about my brother Lin Quan." ”

Lin Quan came back to mourn, and he was actually going to return to Shaoxing tomorrow, and he was unhappy in his heart. After he came back, he didn't dare to provoke Lin Jue, but he still followed Lin Quan and Lin Run and mixed around them, hoping that the two of them would say a few words for him in front of the head of the family, and say a few good words for him, so that he could return to Hangzhou as soon as possible. Just now, the head of the family announced Lin Jue as the chief steward, and Lin Quan was shocked and extremely depressed. His half-brother seems to be deeply favored by the head of the family, and he is actually going to be the chief steward, and he is afraid that his return to Hangzhou will be in vain. When he had such a fierce quarrel with Lin Jue, how could Lin Jue let himself have a place in Hangzhou?

When he was depressed, he suddenly heard Lin Jue say his name, Lin Quan was a little panicked and looked at Lin Jue blankly.

Lin Boyong also thought that Lin Jue saw that Lin Quan had aroused old hatred in front of him, and frowned: "Lin Jue, Lin Quan is working in Shaoxing now, and he will leave Hangzhou tomorrow." It's very hard in Shaoxing, you are siblings born to one father, why bother with him. Some things are gone. ”

Lin Jue smiled dumbly, Lin Boyong thought that he was holding a grudge, but he didn't know that he would only hold a grudge against outsiders, and he would just punish Lin Quan a little. Lin Quan was separated from his wife and expelled from Hangzhou, he had already been taught a lesson and punished, and Lin Jue had already relieved him.

"The head of the family, I mean, the eldest brother has always been working in the Lin family's business, and now is the time to employ people, I want to ask the head of the family to transfer the eldest brother back to Hangzhou to help with things. The more experienced people you have, the more you can do. The past is in the past, how can I hold a grudge against my eldest brother? Isn't it just noisy and noisy between brothers? Besides, the eldest mother lives alone in Hangzhou, and she misses her eldest brother very much. Let the eldest brother come back, and you can also reunite with the eldest mother, mother and son, and do your filial piety. ”

Lin Quan's eyes widened in surprise when he heard this, he never expected that Lin Jue would actually intercede for himself and let him return to Hangzhou. He has been in Shaoxing for almost a year, and he is really going crazy. How could that small place be compared to Hangzhou Huahua World, and he really missed his mother, but he didn't expect Lin Jue to do this, and he was speechless in surprise for a while.

Lin Boyong was also a little surprised, but this was just a trivial matter, and he had already thought about letting Lin Quan go back to Hangzhou. Since Lin Jue did not object, he had no reason to oppose it.

"I see, it's up to you. Lin Quan, you don't have to go to Shaoxing tomorrow, come back and do things. Your mother has also said several times that your mother and son should indeed be reunited, so as not to worry about each other. ”

"Thank you, thank you, rest assured, I will do a good job when I come back this time, and I won't let the head of the family worry about it again." Lin Quan was overjoyed, and got up again and again.

"Hmph, look at how happy you are, now you three brothers are united, I'm afraid you don't even care about the second brother and the third brother." Lin Run, who was on the side, sneered in a low voice.

Lin Quan was stunned when he heard it sincerely, but pretended not to hear it. However, these words reminded him that Lin Jue was a three-room concubine and his younger brother. My younger brother is now in charge, and he naturally needs the help of caring people around him, and the best candidate for this is naturally himself. No matter how much he had conflicts with him before, but after all, he was a brother born to a father, so he was naturally united at this time, and the fertilizer and water did not flow into the fields of outsiders.

"Lin Jue, do you have any other requirements?" Lin Boyong asked.

"Thank you, master, nothing else." Lin Jue arched his hand.

Lin Boyong nodded and said: "Okay, then this matter is settled, from now on you are the Lin family's chief steward, tomorrow morning you will go to the boat to sit in town, if there is anything difficult, you can also come to ask me." Or it may be decided in counsel with the treasurer. In short, during the time I am well, I hope you can live up to your trust, do your best, and don't disappoint me, your second uncle, and people inside and outside the Lin family. ”

Lin Jue respectfully arched his hand and said, "Lin Jue understands. Lin Jue will do his best. ”

Lin Boyong sighed and stood up with the armrest, and because of his weak body, he staggered and staggered a little. Lin Bonian hurriedly stepped forward to help, and Huang Changqing also hurriedly brought crutches and handed them over.

"Disperse, disperse, everyone has worked hard. Changqing, arrange for someone to send the shopkeepers home. Bonian, you can accompany me back to the room to talk. Lin Boyong waved his hand.

"Go slowly, the head of the house! The second master walks slowly! ”

"Be careful, master!"

"The second master is hard!"

A group of people stood up and gave them away. Seeing Lin Boyong and Lin Bonian disappear at the back door of the hall.

……

Everyone on the seat got up to send the head of the family and the second master away, and after seeing their figures disappear, everyone said goodbye to several sons. Huang Changqing was also busy instructing the servants to prepare carriages and lanterns to send the shopkeepers home.

In the midst of the chaos, I suddenly heard Lin Juelang shouting: "Everyone, slow down, I have a few words to say." ”

Everyone hurriedly stood still, looking at the new chief steward in a daze, not knowing what he was going to say.

"All the shopkeepers, Lin Jue was entrusted with a heavy responsibility by the head of the family, and he was very frightened. But in any case, as the chief steward, I naturally have to perform my duties, and I hope that you will be more helpful and responsible in the future. Lin Jue said.

"Childe is polite, we are naturally doing our best." Everyone said.

Lin Jue nodded and said, "That's good, Lin Jue thanked me in advance, everything is for my Lin family's business, and it is also for your livelihood." Let's do our best. Not...... It is already late today, and tomorrow morning, all the shopkeepers, dock masters, and the big and small stewards of the shipping company are invited to come to the shipping company to discuss the matter. Lin Jue is waiting for you in the hall of the No. 1 pier, don't be late. ”

"Okay, good, it's going to be there, it's going to be there." Everyone said.

Lin Jue smiled: "Then you will work hard, be careful on the road." ”

Everyone thanked each other and left the hall one after another. Lin Song and Lin Run looked at Lin Jue's back standing in front of the hall door, and sneered.

……

Lin Jue returned to the small courtyard, Xiaohu was nowhere to be seen, and Lu Wu was dozing off with his cheeks under the lamp. In the past few days, the Lin family has been tired enough, and Green Dance is no exception. Lin Jue presided over the funeral, and Lin Hu and Green Dance were naturally the two who were called the most. But tonight Gongzi was summoned to a meeting, and Green Dance still couldn't change Lin Jue's habit of worrying as soon as she was called by the head of the house, so she didn't dare to go to bed early, and forced herself to wait for Lin Jue to come back.

Lin Jue quietly entered the door, but Green Dance didn't notice it, Lin Jue picked up her petite body and hugged her. Green Dance exclaimed in surprise, and found that it was Gongzi who was holding him, so he immediately stopped struggling, and blushed and snuggled in Lin Jue's arms.

"When you're tired, go to sleep, and you don't have to wait for me." Lin Jue said softly.

"Put me down, I'll go fetch you water and bathe." Midori said in a low voice.

Lin Jue smiled: "I'll go to the yard and take a cold shower." You go to sleep. ”

"How? The housewife used to say that you must not be greedy for cool and cold showers, when you are young, you will naturally have nothing, and when you are old, you will get cold. Midori said busily.

Lin Jue smiled and said, "You, you miss my mother more and more when you talk, hey." But you're right, go boil some hot water, I'll take a hot shower. ”

Green Dance smiled, "That's right. ”

Lin Jue stretched out his mouth and kissed her on the red lips, letting her fall to the ground. Green Dance walked out with a red face and went to the yard to fetch water to boil water. Lin Jue sighed and sat down in front of the desk, turning on the lanterns and preparing to sort out the chaotic thoughts, when he suddenly heard the frightened cry of Green Dance coming from the courtyard.

Lin Jue was stunned, reached out and picked up Wang Ba's box and rushed out. When he rushed to the bottom of the porch, he found that someone was standing there with a lantern at the gate of the courtyard, and Lu Wu was standing there in a daze.

"What's wrong? What happened? Lin Jue shouted.

"Second brother, it's me. Green Dance, don't be afraid, I didn't mean to scare you, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. ”

Lin Jue heard the voice, it was Lin Quan, and he immediately relieved himself. Reproachfully glanced at Midori Dance.

Lu Wu snorted: "I found that there was no firewood under the stove, and I just wanted to go to the firewood stack to bring some in, and suddenly I saw ...... See, so...... So ......"

"Don't blame her, don't blame her, blame me, blame me." Lin Quan said with a smile: "I should have let me know, seeing that the courtyard door was empty and the lights were on inside, I pushed the door in directly, but it scared her." ”

Lin Jue frowned, the courtyard door was not closed, this was Xiaohu's responsibility. I think it's because of the days and nights of the past few days, the young man has been sleepy, keeping the door for himself, and he has been discussing things in the front hall until now, and it is estimated that he can't stay up and sleep.

"Is there something wrong with my eldest brother coming to me so late?" Lin Jue bowed his hand.

Lin Quan bowed down to the porch with a smile on his face, holding a lantern in one hand and a big box under his arm, looking weird and returning the salute.

"It's nothing, it's just ...... It's to meet you. That one...... Let's go inside and talk? Lin Quandao.

Lin Jue nodded and said, "Please come in." Green Dance, don't make tea for the eldest prince. ”

"No, no, no, no work. I'm not thirsty. Lin Quan said busily.

Lu Wu went straight to make tea, put it on the table and turned to leave.

"Green Dancer, please stay." Lin Quan said suddenly.

Lin Jue frowned, is this Lin Quan still dead, and now he still dares to be rude in front of Green Dance? Green Dance was timid in her heart, and she still had a shadow on Lin Quan in her heart, standing there timidly, and her body slowly moved towards Lin Jue's side.

Lin Quan stood up, came to Lu Wu and stood still a few steps, suddenly reached out and slapped himself in the mouth, and said: "I should be damned, I shouldn't have been rude to you at the beginning, please forgive me." You are a person in my second brother's room, but I came to be rude to you, which is simply inferior to a beast. I'm a bastard, I'm damned. ”

Lin Quanlian slapped himself a few times, and apologized repeatedly. Green Dance screamed in fright, and ran behind Lin Jue to hide like a frightened rabbit.

Lin Jue frowned and said, "Big brother, what are you doing?" That's what you're here for? It's a loss of physique. ”

Lin Quan hurriedly said: "Second brother, I regret some of my actions at the beginning, I was confused at the beginning, and I offended you and the Green Dancing Girl. Later, I was punished for this, and I still have a grudge against you. But after tonight, I felt like a villain. The second brother spoke for me in front of the head of the family, regardless of his past suspicions, and he was so broad-minded. I'm not a human being when I am an older brother, and I am really ashamed to think about it before. I'm not just here to ask for forgiveness from Midori Dance, but I'm here to ask you to forgive Big Brother for his previous mistakes. From today on, the eldest brother will listen to you for everything, whatever you say, the eldest brother will not hesitate to go to the soup. ”
