Hou Men Splendid

Chapter 3 Her Grandfather

In April, when the peach blossoms are gone, the spring is just right in this Luodu city. On the day of rest and bathing, father and mother took her and the third and fourth sisters to Lu's house.

Lin Qingran woke up very early, and couldn't stay idle when she left the door of this house. She lay on the small window in the carriage and looked outside. It can't be blamed that she, a bumpkin, went to the center of the city and went out for the first time in three years. Can you take a good look at it?

Mrs. Lu pulled her back and didn't let her look at it anymore. There were so many people coming and going on the street, how could a little girl's family keep watching like this.

After sitting for a while, Lin Qingran felt that the carriage was a bit uncomfortable. After all, it is not the modern tires that are shockproof. The wheels are made of pure wood. They bumped into small stones along the way. She felt a little tired sitting in the carriage. Now, lying in the arms of the third sister.

Seeing that she became sleepy all of a sudden, Mrs. Lu reached out and touched her forehead. It wasn't hot. Lin Wenxi looked over and saw her daughter's slightly pale face, "I'm motion sick." After saying that, he hugged her and drove away. After opening the carriage door in front, a gust of wind came in, and Lin Qingran felt much more comfortable.

Mrs. Lu couldn't laugh or cry when she got in the carriage. She was so happy when she got in the carriage. After sitting in the carriage for less than half an hour, she was like this. Seeing the daughter who was wronged and nestled in her husband's arms, she smiled and said, "I will do it again next time." come out?"

Lin Qingran nodded, "It's still out." The little girl pouted pitifully.

Several people in the carriage laughed, and Lu shi teased her, "Come out if you get motion sickness, and you will have to sit for a longer time next time."

Lin Qingran raised her lips, "I'm not afraid." This was her first time riding in a genuine carriage, and she got used to it after a few more rides. She leaned into Lin Wenxi's arms, and Lin Qingran turned her head to the side where the wind was blowing , much more comfortable, squint your eyes and enjoy
It took about an hour for the carriage to arrive at Lu's mansion, and when they got off the carriage, there was the old housekeeper of Lu's mansion waiting for them.

Lin Qingran was about to fall asleep, got off Lin Wenxi, and walked into Lu's mansion led by her sister in a daze.

Before they had gone far, there was an extremely loud voice coming from the front, and a tall figure walked towards them, with a rough shape, a rough look, and, in a rough way, directly threw Lin Qingran She was lifted up in the arms, and then she looked at the sharp-edged face with a condescending gaze, and a sentence floated in her mind, her grandmother, who was frail and sick and died young, must be a great beauty!

General Lu didn't see the confusion on his granddaughter's face. He held Lin Qingran up high and saw that she was not afraid at all. When he let go, Lin Qingran fell down. He quickly hugged her in his arms again, with a smug expression on her face. asked her, "Is it fun?"

The moment he let go just now, Lin Qingran's body fell lightly, and she was completely frightened.

When his words came, Lin Qingran didn't wait for a reaction, and she fell into Lu's arms. Lu patted her on the back lightly, and said dissatisfiedly to General Lu, "Father, you scared Wu'er .”

Only then did General Lu see his granddaughter's pale face, touched his nose, turned his head and looked directly at Lin Wenxi, stepped forward and patted his back vigorously, and laughed, "Long time no see son-in-law, let's go, In the evening, Ting'er and her elder brother should be back, let's go have a drink first!"

Lin Qingran, who was recovering in Lu's arms, saw with her own eyes the pain flashed across her father's face after being slapped by his grandfather, and then his father was taken away by his grandfather.

Lu patted her forehead again, this was the first time she went out, she was motion sick again, and her father scared her, so don't get a fever.

But Lin Qingran's body was a 20-year-old soul. She quickly adapted to it, and then she fell into Lu's arms and held her sister's hand. Later, she can go shopping in Lu's mansion visit.

Not far away, Mrs. Lu's sister-in-law, Mrs. He, came over, saw Lin Qingran who was being held by Lin Qingxuan, and smiled softly, "This must be Ran'er."

Lu reminded her to call someone, Lin Qingran called her aunt sweetly, He stroked her head, a little envious, "You're so cute."

"Sister-in-law, where is Xiang Yi and Xiangsong?" Mrs. Lu asked He after looking around but did not see the two nephews coming out.

"Let's go in and talk." Mrs. He smiled, "Your elder brother took them to hunt, and roasted game to eat at night."

Mrs. He took them to the front hall. Behind the front hall were the left and right wing rooms, and there were two side rooms on both sides of the yard. Lin Qingran couldn't sit still and wanted to find her father, so Mrs. He asked a maid to take her out of the front hall. Walking to the other side of the room, before entering the house, Lin Qingran heard loud laughter, stood outside the door and looked in, her grandfather was trying to give her father a drink, but while covering it, her father couldn't bear it and drank some, The face is already red.

General Lu saw Lin Qingran standing outside and waved to her. Lin Qingran walked over the threshold with her hands on the door frame, got close to Lin Wenxi, and called out to her father.

Lin Wenxi touched her face, "Why aren't you with your mother."

Mother and aunt were whispering, but they couldn't hear her. Seeing the stool next to her, Lin Qingran also wanted to sit on it, so she said to Lin Wenxi, "I want to come and find my father."

After finishing speaking, her body was lifted up, and General Lu easily picked her up and put her on a stool beside her, and brought her a bowl. She was completely half-drunk, and even asked her if she wanted to drink .

Lin Qingran admired this grandfather very much at this time. I heard from my mother that my grandmother died of illness not long after giving birth. At that time, my mother was still in her infancy, my uncle was also a child, and my grandfather was alone. It's not easy for a rough guy who knows how to fight to bring up two children like this.

Lin Wenxi took care of his daughter all the time. In fact, he could drink better than his father-in-law, but every time he tried to drink, he had to be the one who fell down first. Pretending to be drunk, he had to give his father-in-law a sense of accomplishment.

Not long after, Lin Wenxi lay down on the table with a red face and dizzy eyes, and finally winked at his daughter, and then General Lu began to dislike him, "It's been so many years, why hasn't my drinking capacity improved, so Almost drunk, boring!"

Lin Qingran saw that her grandfather was already drunk, and looked at him with wide eyes. General Lu picked up the chopsticks in front of her and dipped a little wine into her mouth. Lin Qingran licked it and frowned.

General Lu smiled, "Girl, do you know how your father married your mother back then?"

General Lu seemed to think that she couldn't understand what she was talking about with a three-year-old child, and she felt that her son-in-law was drunk. With that drunkenness, General Lu talked about the time when his father fell in love with his mother at first sight, and then stalked him to death. The great deeds of playing badly, wandering around the door of Lu's house with various excuses, and almost climbing the wall to show his sincerity.

The corners of Lin Qingran's mouth twitched slightly, and she subconsciously glanced at her father, who was actually sober, and saw that his shoulders were still shaking slightly when he was lying on his stomach, then he raised his head, looked innocently at General Lu, and listened to what he said about the past.

General Lu's drunken talk was still a little jumpy, Lin Qingran concluded after listening to it, that is, the father who just came to Luodu City to hang out in Luodu City fell in love with the young lady of the General's family, and risked his life to be maimed by his grandfather and uncle , Bravely took his mother back home.

At that time, my father didn't have anything, so it was true that he won Tanhua, but he just came out of the corner of the mountain. He had no power, no power, and didn't even have a strong backer. He was a small official in Luodu City. It's not easy to mess around, my grandfather still married his mother to his father, although he didn't say a word that he liked this son-in-law, but he gave money and effort.

Lin Qingran can somewhat understand the reason why my grandfather did this. My grandmother died early, and my mother lived with my grandfather in the military camp for a long time. To a certain extent, it is much simpler than the young lady from the family. Temperament is not suitable for going to a big family, it's too complicated.

Father's hard work and care for mother made grandfather feel that mother would not be wronged by the simple background of the Lin family and father's motivation.

Lin Qingran looked at the drunken grandfather who was about to lie down, and tried hard to search for the impression of her parents before the memory time travel. It was too faint, and she couldn't remember it at all. She only heard things about her parents from her grandma. They loved each other very much. Dad is nice to mom.

When she was carried to her uncle's house when she was very young, she often cried and begged for her parents. Gradually, she stopped being so troublesome. My cousin was hurt by her uncle and aunt. If time can't take care of her, she can only rely on herself.

Coming to this world by accident, and being born in such a big family, Lin Qingran still feels very lucky to have such precious parents.

As the grandfather was talking, he got drunk and fell down. Lin Qingran reached out and poked Dad's arm, "Father, I want to eat that." Watching Dad get up, he pointed to the peanut beside him.

Lin Wenxi looked at her daughter's pure face. His father-in-law just said so much, he couldn't put it down. He peeled two peanuts for her daughter and put them in her palm, telling her, "Eat slowly, don't choke .”

Lin Qingran gnawed on the peanuts, "Grandfather is drunk."

Lin Wenxi patted her head and hugged her up, "Yes, grandpa is drunk, let's go find your mother, father is also drunk."

Going outside, let the servant girl guarding outside come in to serve, Lin Wenxi walked towards the front hall with her daughter in her arms

Afterwards, Lin Qingran walked around the Lu Mansion with her two older sisters. During lunch, her grandfather was still drunk, so her mother personally delivered the hangover soup. After lunch, Lin Qingran was habitually sleepy.

Before my mother got married, the attic was tidied up. The three sisters went there to take a nap. When they woke up, it was already evening, and the uncle and two cousins ​​came back from hunting.

It was the first time for Lin Qingran to see them, and her grandfather took them to station outside. This time, she could only stay for more than three months after returning from visiting family leave. After more than three months, she was leaving Luodu City to go back.

Standing beside her sister, Lin Qingran looked curiously at the boy who was tall and short, with a bow and arrow on his back, and prey in a cage beside him.

"It's been a few years since I've seen you grow up so big. This is Wu'er." Lin Qingran was lifted up again, but this time she didn't lift her up and put her down like her grandfather did to startle her, but hugged her directly in her arms Li, gently pinched her nose, "Looks like your mother."

Lin Qingran looked at this uncle nearby. In her eyes, he was only in his thirties, with a short beard and a calm look of a soldier. His handsome face still had some traces of battlefield experience. Feeling the vicissitudes of life, those deep eyes were filled with a doting smile, Lin Qingran looked at it for a while, and was sure in her heart, um, mother and uncle must have followed grandmother
