After finishing his words, Old Man Lin looked at his son and grandson, "The boss is taking the family to harvest rice."
"Yes, Dad."
Lin Tingsheng's brothers also nodded: "Well, if the elder brother has something to do, go to the field and give a shout."
"Well, go ahead."
Everyone left one after another, and Old Man Lin invited everyone into the main room. As soon as he sat down, Lin Tingyao also returned to the front yard from the backyard, and was invited into the main room by Mr. Huang. Lin Tingyao ignored the Li family and was minding his own business: "Well, brother, Ke'er. Once the rubella comes out, you’ll be fine after the first three days.”
Old Man Lin nodded: "Thank you, Seventh Brother, for your trouble."
Lin Tingyao waved his hand: "Brother, what are you talking about? Hey, Village Chief Chen and several clan leaders are here. Does the incident outside Village Chief Chen have anything to do with your grandnephew?"
Village Chief Chen raised his eyebrows: "You have good ears too."
Lin Tingyao snorted coldly: "It doesn't matter whether my ears work well or not. What matters is that my eyes are vicious. I can tell at a glance that your grandnephew is not a good match. I know that he is worried about me, but I still send him to your door every day to plot against him."
Village Chief Chen's face darkened. There was such a junior in the clan, so what could he say?
Patriarch Li's face has never been better since he came here. He doesn't like the Lin family because today's descendants are capable of literature and martial arts. He hopes that the Li family will marry the Chen family and the Liao family. concubine. Who would dare to marry a woman from the clan if word spread about this?
A group of people came in noisily outside the door. Lin Tingde and Lin Tingyao lowered their eyes lightly. Lin Boan stood next to his father. Mrs. Liu welcomed the Chen family into the house and found a place to stand.
The elders of the Chen family entered the main room, met with the village chief and the clan leaders, and then found a place to sit down without looking at the Li family at all. Chen Shijing saw Li Sangsang when he arrived, and also listened to his cousin's explanation of the cause of the incident on the way here. Now, in addition to regret, he was even more angry at Li Sangsang's stupidity.
Li Sangsang looked at Chen Shijing with tears on his face: "Brother Jing."
Chen Shijing turned his head and didn't look at Li Sangsang. Chen Shijing didn't answer. Li Sangsang just pretended to be weak and wiped away her tears, looking more and more pitiful.
The atmosphere in the room instantly fell silent. Village Chief Chen lamented that although there were many members of the Chen clan, few of them were motivated, and they were not as united as the Liao clan. Look at these nephews and nephews. He really didn't care.
"Ah Jing, you should tell yourself about the matter between you and the girl from the Li family, and you should also give an explanation to the Lin family."
Chen Shijing didn't dare to look at the Lin family when he heard this. He knelt down on the ground and lowered his head: "Grandpa Lin, Grandma Lin, and Uncle Lin are all the fault of Ah Jing. I didn't know why I drank too much that day, so I woke up." Just lying on the Li family girl's bed, Shi Jing really didn't know what was going on. Shi Jing was sincere to Ke'er and didn't want to let Ke'er down. He also asked Grandpa Lin, Grandma Lin, and Uncle Lin to give Shi Jing a chance."
Mrs. Li sneered and said, "Young man from the Chen family, what you are saying is that our Li family has plotted against you. Then you come to my Li family every day to recite poetry and debate with Baosheng, discuss knowledge, and Sangsang will bring you tea and water. Mo, do you refuse these things, do you avoid them? Do you dare to say that you have no intention of being interested in Sangsang?"
"No need to refute, you think it's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. You did the same thing. By marrying a girl from the Lin family, you can also take a girl from our Li family as your concubine and enjoy the blessings of the whole family."
Chen Shijing was speechless for a moment. He did not refuse or avoid it. He had no intention of Li Sang at first, but as time went by... He thought it was normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, but he had never thought of marrying Li Sang. Sang is the main wife.
Lin Bo'an's eyes were red and he clenched his fists. He was really blind. He decided to marry Ke'er in such a family. At this time, Lin Tingyao said: "Huh, it's a beautiful thought. My Lin family can enjoy the blessings of the whole family. Let me, the daughter of the Lin family, It is impossible to suffer such humiliation, brother and sister-in-law, please say something."
When the Chen family heard this, they wanted to refute, but were stopped by Village Chief Chen. Village Chief Chen looked at Old Man Lin and said, "Brother Lin, look."
Old man Lin glanced at Chen Shijing, with disappointment in his eyes, and sighed: "Cancel the engagement. I don't want to say more about the rest. I only have two requests. We, the Lin family and the Chen family, cancel the engagement. I don't need to explain the reasons. You understand. The first Second, the Chen family and the Li family must clarify the rumors outside and have nothing to do with our Kerr, and they must not ruin the reputation of our Kerr family."
When Chen Shijing heard the word "reconciliation", she felt unwilling to do so. She knelt and took two steps forward: "Grandpa Lin, Shi Jing doesn't want to cancel the engagement with Ke'er. I beg Grandpa Lin not to cancel this marriage. At least, please do it." Ask Ke'er what she wants."
Chen Shijing knew that although Lin Ke'er had not expressed her feelings to him, she was very satisfied with the marriage. Although he made a mistake, if Ke'er forgives her, this matter will not affect his imperial examination in August this year. He must not cancel the marriage at this time. His last hope lies in Lin Ke'er.
Li Sangsang tugged at the hem of Chen Shijing's clothes and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Chen Shijing's smart eyes.
Lin Bo'an endured and endured and finally said: "Ke'er will agree to this. Besides, Ke'er has rubella. Maybe tomorrow. In case Ke'er can't bear it, do you want to break off the engagement now or do you want to welcome Ke'er's body?" .”
Everyone looked at Lin Bo'an in surprise when they heard this. As Lin Keer's father, he shouldn't say these words, but anyone with a discerning eye also knows Lin Bo'an's intentions. At this time, no one said anything and all looked at Chen Shijing.
Chen Shijing staggered a few steps after hearing this, with shock, disbelief and grief in his eyes. At this time, the Chen family couldn't sit still, and Chen's mother stood up directly: "We agreed to cancel the engagement, and we will cancel the marriage now. I will also bring the tokens of intimacy with me, and I will trouble the village chief and several clan elders to make the decision to cancel the marriage. "
Chen Shijing wanted to say something else, but Li Sangsang said: "Brother Shi Jing, Ke'er really has rubella. Rubella is contagious and can kill people. You forgot about Lin Baoer."
"Li Sangsang, shut up." Mrs. Li slapped Li Sangsang on the left side of his face. Li Sangsang was knocked to the ground again. Mrs. Li didn't even look at it. Li Sangsang hurriedly apologized to the Lin family: "Brother Lin, Sister-in-law Lin, you are a girl and you have not taught your children and grandchildren well, so you sir will not remember the faults of others."
The Lin family didn't say anything. Patriarch Li also had a headache at this time. He had always been invisible, but now that he was exposed to the Lin family's reverse aging, he had to speak out and be the peacemaker.
"Brother Lin, this junior is ignorant and spoiled. For the sake of my face, don't be angry. Now it's time to resolve Ke'er's marriage first. This A-Jing is a good boy and he knows he's wrong, so why not"
Hearing this, Li Sangsang clenched his hands into fists, lowered his head with red eyes, and said nothing.
Chen Shijing hesitated in her heart, but she still took over Patriarch Li's words and said: "Uncle Lin, I am willing. Even if Kerr is gone, I will welcome her in."
Everyone looked at Chen Shijing in disbelief. Chen Shijing's words were also a bet that Lin Keer could survive. But everyone didn't know it. They all thought that Chen Shijing had a deep affection for Lin Keer.
