Hou Men Splendid

Chapter 23

Lin Qingran opened the letter, and Lin Qingyan's beautiful handwriting appeared vividly on the paper, but the beautiful handwriting was just words, and the content of the letter was not peaceful at all.

Lin Qingyan married into the Jin family two years ago, and after half a year, the second wife of the Jin family returned the power of the Jin family to her, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Jin family. She gave birth to the eldest grandson of the Jin family in October last year. Sitting more securely, there is no mother-in-law to make things difficult for her, and her husband is a protégé of her father, so she will not treat her badly, and the eldest grandson will live her life, let alone the same.

But every time she reads this letter, Lin Qingran always feels that no matter how smooth it looks, but when it comes to talking about such a bad thing, it will still be endless.

There are some things that cannot be said to the husband's family, nor to the parents of the mother's family. There are many sisters in the family, and Lin Qingran bears the brunt of it, so she made this inverted bamboo tube. Lin Qingran concluded that she became a close wife, and the relationship between husband and wife If you can't communicate with each other, and there is no one you can trust to talk to, it's okay to live a happy life. If your life is not going well, you will suffocate your own rhythm every minute. The women's disease that she has heard of over the years, depression and depression This is not what death is talking about.

After reading it, I read it, Lin Qingran was also willing to do such a worry-relieving service for her sister, after reading the letter, Si Qin brought up a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and Lin Qingran wrote a short letter to her second sister .

After writing the two-page letter, it was already late at night. After washing, Lin Qingran lay on the bed, tossing and turning without any sleepiness.

In the past four years, the second sister and the third sister got married, and the fourth sister's marriage was also decided at the beginning of this year. For the rest of her, her parents will start discussing in a few years. With a face off, she became a mother in the second year of marriage. From her point of view, at the age of fifteen or sixteen, her body is not yet fully developed, and it is dangerous to have children.

The eldest sister has been married for six years, and now she is finally pregnant with her second child. At this age, Lin Qingran still feels that she is pregnant early, but the eldest sister is always worried about whether the child will be a boy or a girl.

Turning over and leaning against the back of the bed, Lin Qingran became more and more sleepy, and finally got up, alarming Si Hua, who was watching the night outside the screen, and opened the curtain to see her sitting on the bed, "Miss, are you not feeling well?" .”

Lin Qingran shook her head, and lay back again, thinking about what her mother said during the day, and reading the letter again at night, she was in a daze, as if falling asleep, and had several very strange dreams again and again. Dreamed that she was married, but couldn't have children, and dreamed that she was not married well, her husband was a duplicity, she ran home with a bruised nose and swollen face, and wanted to sue, but the door of the Lin family was closed no matter what. If not, she has nowhere to turn for help.

Several dreams showed an air of despair, Lin Qingran woke up startled, the light coming through the curtain was already morning.

She got up and wanted to ask someone to bring water, but when she raised her head, a heavy dizziness came, and Lin Qingran leaned back heavily on the pillow again, her head was so heavy.

Mother Li, who was already in the room, opened the curtains, saw her sweating profusely, reached out her hand to touch her forehead, and hurriedly ordered the servant girl to report to Madam, while she wrung out the cloth and wiped her face and mouth for the young lady. After changing into clean clothes, Lin Qingran was still a little dazed, but Mother Li didn't let her move, covered her with a quilt, went out for a while, and came back with a bowl of white fungus dew in her hand, "Eat something first , the doctor will be here soon."

Lin Qingran opened her mouth, the slightly sweet white fungus dew didn't taste much in her mouth, she shook her head and said no, outside the house, Mrs. Lu came with the doctor, entered the room to see her face, and asked the doctor to see a doctor.

"Suffering some wind and cold." The doctor took the pulse and went to the outer room to write a prescription. Lu went to the bedside and covered her forehead, then took Lin Qingran's hand and squeezed it, "Did you kick the quilt at night? "

Lin Qingran leaned into her arms coquettishly, "Mom, I'm having a nightmare."

Lu touched her hair and comforted her softly, "Don't be afraid, it's just a dream."

"I dreamed that I didn't marry well, and when I was bullied, he would beat people." Lin Qingran looked up at her, and said childishly, "Mother, can I not get married?"

Lu laughed, and followed the bangs on her forehead, "What are you thinking, dreams are dreams, you still take it seriously."

She was thinking day by day and dreaming at night, she fell asleep in a daze, had a nightmare all night, woke up and fell ill again, Lin Qingran was lying in Lu's arms and refused to leave, she insisted Only after hugging herself was she willing to rest, Lu couldn't laugh or cry, "How old is he, why are you still so childish."

Lin Qingran sullenly emphasized that she was a child, and she felt at ease in Lu's arms. Seeing that her eyes were closed, Lu simply sat on the side of the bed and hugged her to make her sleep more peacefully.

This sleep was sound and sweet, and it was already noon when he woke up.

Mrs. Lu had already gone back when she was in a deep sleep. Mother Li saw her wake up and changed a piece of cloth on her forehead, "Miss, are you hungry? Eat something first, and drink medicine later."

Lin Qingran frowned, and looked at Mama Li pitifully, "Nurse, the fever has subsided if you stick to it like this, can you do it without taking medicine?"

"Of course not." Li's mother brought the porridge over, blew it cold and fed it to her, "Eldest young master and second young master are not as clumsy as you are when they take medicine. I have prepared candied fruit for you, and you will be cured if you drink it."

Whenever it was time to take the medicine, Mother Li wanted to coax Lin Qingran like a child. The latter struggled a bit, rested for a while after drinking the porridge, pinched his nose and drank the medicine in one go, frowning and hurriedly Asking Si Hua to feed her candied fruit, she took three of them in a row to dilute the taste, Lin Qingran was even more determined to make pills.

After drinking the porridge and taking the medicine, Lin Qingran felt a little sleepy again. She wanted to read some books, but her head was already heavy and uncomfortable. After lying down for a while, she fell asleep again.

When he woke up again, the sky outside the window was dark.

In the room, Siqin saw that she had woken up, lit a candle, and came to help her up, "Madam came here in the afternoon, and the lady and the young masters also came to see you."

Lin Qingran was awake, but she wasn't feeling well. Mother Li came in and covered her forehead, "The fever is gone." After that, it was another bowl of medicine.

"It's not back." Lin Qingran looked at the medicine bowl in disgust, feeling uncomfortable in her stomach.

"The roots have to be removed." Li's mother looked at her amusedly, "Eat first, the medicine is warm."

Lin Qingran lingered, and finally took the medicine.

Half an hour later, Lin Wenxi, who had been away on business for half a month, came back. When she learned that her daughter was ill, she didn't have time to change her clothes, so she came to Ting Nuan Pavilion to see her.

"Father." Lin Qingran quickly put down the book and called out to him sweetly.

Lin Wenxi walked in, reached out and touched her face, "I'll let Uncle Wei come over to show you tomorrow."

Lin Qingran wanted to refuse at first, but in a blink of an eye, she thought that she still needed to ask Uncle Wei for help, so she nodded, "Father, did you bring me what I want?"

"You just remember this!" Lin Wenxi said with a smile, "I brought the things here, but you haven't said what you're going to do with them."

The corner of Lin Qingran's mouth was slightly charming, "I can't tell you now."

Lin Wenxi pampered her daughter, seeing her expression, pinched her nose lightly, "I brought you something, you should take care of yourself first."

Lin Qingran watched him go out, who would have thought that a favorite like father would have a day short of money, if she hadn't accidentally overheard the conversation between father and mother last year, she would not have known that father was an official, On the surface, it seems that the scenery is infinite, but when it comes to critical moments, it is still short of money.

The reason is that the Holy Majesty gave father a piece of land, which is in the outskirts of Luodu City. He was very happy to receive this reward, but the Holy Majesty added that he saw the prosperity of the Lin family, and one house in the Lin Mansion was not enough. , this land is for the Lin family to build a villa.

Father came to Luodu City as a bare-handed commander, and he has accumulated a lot of money over the years, but they are all real things. Should he sell all those shops and villages to save money to build a villa? That would make people in Luodu City laugh Big teeth.

Lin Qingran felt that the emperor did it on purpose. In the officialdom and court, no one who was pure and approachable was pretending.

Thinking of this, Lin Qingran ordered Si Qin to go to the study to get the things she tidied up last time. Si Qin ran to bring them back and just gave them to her. Mother Li came in to see that she wanted to read again, and stopped her, "My Miss, you are sick, you need to rest."

"Nurse, I've been sleeping all day, how can I still sleep." Lin Qingran opened the book, and it was all the notes she had taken in the past six months, the customs of various places in the Feng'an Dynasty, what prevailed in what places, what What sells best, what is scarce, and what is only there is recorded.

Lin Qingran used to study environmental studies. This major is actually very weak. When she came out to find a job, she had to enter the Environmental Protection Bureau. This plan is too difficult, but she doesn't want to go back to see her aunt's face. In line with the principle of self-reliance, after hitting a wall in many ways, in desperation, she also followed the tide of civil servants and ran to squeeze the single-plank bridge. No, it's not the turn of the exam yet, and I've read too hard, so I've crossed time.

Unfortunately, she was also a love of learning back then. She has no other advantages, but loves to read books and has a good memory. She took a few minor courses in college, and she can still remember the general outline.

Lin Qingran picked up another book. The things recorded on it were the most popular things among the wives and ladies in Luodu City. These days, if you want to make money quickly, you must either go by other ways, or you want to make a lot of money, which is very attractive. human.

She once saw a book about the expenses of the ancient court. The cost of clothing, food, housing and transportation of the concubines alone is an astonishing figure. It is the same in ancient and modern times. Where there are women, there must be money to be made. Lin Qingran has done a lot of homework .

Soon the construction of the villa will start, and this construction will cost money everywhere. She hopes to share some worries for her father and mother.

At the side, Ms. Li urged her again, Lin Qingran put down the book, no matter what her father brought, she would not be able to see it until tomorrow, maybe it was because she had been reading for a long time, Lin Qingran felt her head was a little heavy, so she lay down to rest and fell asleep Not long after touching the pillow one day, I fell asleep again.

This time it was a dreamless night, but when I woke up the next morning, the fever was gone, but my head hurt even worse, and my voice was hoarse
