It is said that the main seat in the main hall has been empty for many years. It is an armchair made of rosewood. The price has not been as high as in later generations, but Liang Chuan did not have the opportunity to enjoy the comfort brought by this chair.
Every time she ate, Lin Yiniang always left this chair empty. No one could sit in it except Liang Chuan. No matter how many and distinguished guests came to the house, this precedent had never been broken.
Yi Niang will let the children take turns to wipe the chair without leaving a speck of dust. In this way, if Liang Chuan comes back soon one day and wants to sit down, he will not have to wipe the table again.
That chair is the spiritual sustenance of everyone in the family.
Everyone hopes that one day, someone will sit in that seat.
But it took three years for this chair to be empty.
Now that the family is together, the chair is finally no longer empty.
Liang Chuan raised his butt and sat down lightly. He couldn't understand the weight of his action in everyone's heart. The family was stable and everyone's hearts were at ease.
Sitting in the middle was Liang Chuan, with Lin Yiniang on the left, Zheng Ruoying on the right, then Shen Yuzhen, followed by Anong, followed by Ye Xiaochai, Yang Xiu and Li Erhua. The child was arranged by Lin Yiniang to another adult table, and everyone on the table They are our own people, namely Wu Yong and the two Nong brothers, He Baozheng's family, and Li Chuyi.
The dishes on the table are very good.
The sea bass caught from the river is sprinkled with shredded green onions, drizzled with sesame oil, and garnished with their unique chili peppers. The red and green fish on the plate are very tempting. There are also game hunted in the mountains, especially the beggar's chicken and bamboo rat meat that Liang Chuan likes very much. Even the Nong brothers' throats quivered in dissatisfaction when they saw it.
The wine is an aged daughter's red. The alcohol content is not high, but it ripples in the glass like amber, exuding a mellow aroma of grain.
Rice wine has become the mainstream in this family. Even when Liang Chuan was away, several women drank a lot behind closed doors.
Wine is a good thing. Being drunk can make people forget their worries, stop missing them, and make them sleep peacefully. It is more effective than taking medicine.
This kind of wine has been stored for a long time and has a very fragrant and mellow taste without the strong aftertaste of strong liquor. Anyone can drink a little of it, so the artist at home bought a lot of it.
Wu Yong and the Nong brothers went to Liang Chuan's home for the first time.
This home is very large, surrounding a patio and a main hall, which can accommodate more than a dozen of them to eat at the same time.
Logically speaking, the bigger the family, the stricter the rules!
Although Liang Chuan and the others called them brothers, they themselves knew that they were just helpers, not even close to being members of the Liang family.
But in this family, they don't feel that sense of superiority and inferiority. Everyone sits together equally, on an equal footing with the young masters. The food is also placed in front of them. They can pick it up if they want to eat it and pour the wine if they want to drink it. .
Looking at the attitude of the Liang family, they should have always been like this, and they are not surprised.
If we can chat together, that's nothing. If we can eat together, we really become brothers. .
Liang Chuan looked around, as if someone was missing. It took him a long time to come back to his senses and asked urgently: "Where is Liu Jinyan? Why isn't she at home?"
Liu Jinyan is the most special being in the family. Although she also has feelings for Liang Chuan, Liang Chuan does not dare to express his feelings due to her status. He just follows the agreement with Queen Mother Liu to protect her, so he keeps her here. At home.
When she was in Guangnan, Empress Dowager Liu drove to Hexi. Probably no one in the world would be touched, except her biological daughter. It's hard for this little girl to say that she has been closely guarded since she was a child, and she doesn't dare to let the world know her existence. She has no relatives or friends, and is so lonely that she only has Qin Sang by her side.
Could it be that while he was away, she left Xinghua and went back to find her mother?
This sentence was extremely powerful, as if it had offended all the women present. They all looked at her with hatred, all of them accusing Liang Chuan of being ruthless!
All of the people here are your women. You don't care about us, but you only care about the little lady who hasn't married yet!
Lin Yiniang
Her heart also twitched, but as she looked at the size of the family that was getting bigger year by year, she had already thought that if nothing happened to Liang Chuan outside this time, he would probably add a few more ladies when he came back.
Sure enough, not only did she bring back the most beautiful Anon, but she also brought back a half-grown girl. .
But thinking about it from another perspective, it would be a good thing if this family was more prosperous.
"Jinyan's mother has passed away. Do you know this?"
That time Jinyan got the news of Liu E's death and decided to leave Xinghua and go to Bianjing to mourn her mother. Lin Yiniang was puzzled as to why she had such a big reaction when the old queen mother of Bianjing died.
Yi Niang always remembered Liang Chuan's instructions and must take good care of this girl and not let her leave, especially let her go to Bianjing.
At that time, Yi Niang didn't understand why Liang Chuan made such arrangements until Jin Yan cried in her arms and wanted to send her mother off for the last time.
At that moment, Lin Yiniang truly understood why Liang Chuan worshiped this girl as a Bodhisattva.
Liu E's daughter was, at least, a princess. Although she was a concubine, no one dared to take her seriously.
Alas, the poor girl has a mother who dare not recognize her. She can’t go back even if her mother is gone. Everyone in the world knows about Liu E’s deeds. She has offended too many people. How much pressure does the third brother have to hide people in? In your own home.
If the enemies in the court knew about this, would the Liang family still have a peaceful life?
Liang Chuan hummed and said, "I heard that, so I asked you where she went. Could it be that she went to Bianjing?"
Yi Niang sighed and said: "She insisted on leaving. I persuaded her that it was you who brought her here in the first place. If you agreed, I would never keep her. But now that you are not here, I can't let her go!"
Apart from being an art queen, only Liang Chuan knew about Liu Jinyan's life experience. The other women in the family also didn't know. Listening to the two people talking, they only had half-understandings, doubts and dissatisfaction in their hearts. The art queen must be hiding something from them. !
'She should also know that something happened to you outside. Without your care, she also understands that Miss Qin alone cannot protect her.
'So I discussed with her to build a temple on the mountain and let her live in it first. When you come back, go find her. It's up to you to decide whether to stay or go. If you can't come back, I will keep her for three years, and after three years, she will make her own decision.
It’s not that Wang Xiang is a bad thing, but Liu Jinyan laments that his life has been miserable. He has had no father’s love since he was a child, and his mother has always been greedy for power. He struggled in the whirlpool of power until his death. He only regretted it when he was old, but that was the time when it was hard to get back. , If you want to look back, you can no longer find the shore of the sea of suffering.
As a daughter, she cannot fulfill her filial duty in front of her mother. She has passed through too many places in her life and has seen a lot of worldly things. She can only experience it as a bystander, but she does not dare to feel that she is inseparable from the world of mortals. Love someone because that will only bring disaster to others.
In the face of Liu E's power, no one can bow their heads. In the face of the hatred carried by Liu E, no one can swallow this breath. If they are together with themselves, they will definitely end up miserable.
Until I met Liang Chuan.
Liang Chuan felt relieved after hearing Lin Yiniang's words.
If Liu Jinyan ran to Bianjing, he would definitely go there again. If he didn't find this girl, he would never be able to sleep peacefully in his life.
'Fortunately you persuaded her to come down.
Liang Chuan looked at Lin Yiniang. The couple had been together less and apart for many years, but the tacit understanding between the couple had not diminished at all.
Lin Yiniang has always obeyed Liang Chuan's arrangements and never cared about the reasons behind it. She unconditionally believed whatever Liang Chuan said.
It is precisely this that makes the Liang family rarely make stupid mistakes.
Since Liu Jinyan was fine, everyone was in peace. Liang Chuan could finally eat in peace. He picked up a glass of wine and wanted to make an opening speech. However, he did not expect that, headed by Lin Yiniang, everyone was completely helpless.
I was so moved that I had no intention of raising a glass while sitting on the chair!
The atmosphere is so cold that it makes one's hair stand on end!
Liang Chuan used to be the eldest brother here, but now the situation has changed, with Yi Niang taking the lead.
Yi Niang didn't move, she was as strong as Zheng Ruoying, let alone Shen Yuzhen who had been away from home for the same three years.
The first thing Shen Yuzhen did when she got home was to apologize to Lin Yiniang.
In this family, the men are headed by Liang Chuan, and the women are all headed by Yi Niang. Not to mention that Liang Chuan and Shen Yuzhen shared hardships and had a deep love. She did not listen to Yi Niang's arrangement and took Liang Yu home. According to the laws of the Song Dynasty, , she had the right to deal with Shen Yuzhen!
Dealing with it is not as simple as beating and scolding.
If Liang Chuan's bones and blood were lost, Lin Yiniang would definitely not spare Shen Yuzhen lightly!
Anyway, both of them came back safely, and Yi Niang graciously let it go. But if there is another time, then there will be no rules in this family, which she cannot tolerate!
No one in the Liang family would question Lin Yiniang's status and dedication.
When Liang Chuan was poor and destitute, it was the most difficult time for her and Liang Chuan to create the brilliance of the Liang family today. At that time, Liang Chuan was neither a warrior nor a talented man. He was just a beggar, a beggar who ate his last meal but failed to finish his meal. No one would look him in the eye.
When everyone looks back today, no one has the determination to follow Liang Chuan at that time, because he can't see the future in him!
Lin Yiniang followed Liang Chuan and never wavered. This was something that no one in the Liang family could do. Without Yiniang's persistence, Liang Chuan might have died of serious injuries, might have starved to death on the street, might have died in One cold night, he froze to death in the wilderness.
None of them can replace Lin Yiniang, let alone Lin Yiniang.
'It's rare for our family to sit together today. There are new people and old people. We have to talk about some things!
