The "war" was successful.
Little Duan was in a good mood. The next day, when Lin Lang took her husband and daughter back to her parents' home to pay New Year's greetings, she was in high spirits.
As the youngest daughter and the only daughter, Lin Lang was very doted on by her parents and brothers.
Before the old man died, she was the one he worried about the most. .
Although the marriage was finalized long ago, he has always been reluctant to marry, but he did not expect that staying until the end would delay his illness.
Fortunately, the uncle and husband's family I chose are decent and reliable.
The Jin family does not have a title, but they have a rich history of scholarship, their ancestors had great Confucian scholars, and their family tradition is particularly upright.
After the disciples became officials, some stayed in the capital, and some were sent to serve as officials. Even if they were not in high positions, they all had good official titles.
My uncle, Jin Wei'an, has no intention of entering the court, and is focused on his studies.
During the three years that Lin Lang kept his father's filial piety, he followed the Jin family's elders to travel around the mountains and rivers and gain more knowledge.
After they got married, the two lived a happy and smooth life, and they got a daughter, Jinning, who was also very popular and loved by everyone.
But today, Jinning pouted, looking aggrieved.
As soon as he entered the house, he didn't say hello to anyone, and just jumped on Lin Yunyan.
Lin Yunyan simply held her in her arms.
Little Mrs. Duan felt extremely distressed when she saw it, and wanted to reach out to take it. Jinning was unwilling to let go, so she didn't force her. She just asked, "Who bullied us, Ning Ning? Tell grandma."
Jinning blinked her big eyes, and tears fell down: "Fifth sister ignored me."
Lin Lang took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears: "I'm not ignoring Ning Ning. Ask her when you get home. She will definitely play with you."
After speaking, she explained to everyone.
Lin Yunyan gently patted Jinning on the back and listened, but she understood.
The fifth sister refers to Jinning’s cousin Jin Shu.
On the way back, Jinning clamored for flower cakes, so Jin Weian stopped the carriage and went to buy some with the child in his arms.
Unexpectedly, when he met another young woman who was also buying, Jinning opened her mouth and called her "Fifth Sister."
That woman was naturally not Jin Shu.
"Wei An said that the facial features are not very similar, but at a glance, it is indeed easy to misjudge them," Lin Lang said, "It is more like the way they behave. They are both delicate and delicate girls.
Ningning didn't know clearly for a moment, thinking it was Ashu, and stretched out her hand to be hugged.
The girl must be introverted. She took one look at us and got on the sedan.
Ning Ning, isn’t this just..."
Xiao Duan was very amused after hearing this.
It is so common to admit the wrong person. It happens to adults as well, not to mention children.
It's just that the child admits his mistake and can't react, and he feels aggrieved.
Xiao Duan brought a lot of new things for fun, and then Jinning let go of Lin Yunyan, and she carried her over to coax her. They teased her in various directions, and finally made her granddaughter forget to ignore her fifth sister, and she smiled happily. .
Lin Yunyan looked at the lively and happy scene with a smile on her face, but her thoughts fell on Jin Shu.
She remembered that Jin Shu left very early in the past.
It seems that it was this year that the Jin family sent a funeral notice to the uncle's house, saying that Jin Shu had died of a long illness.
Mrs. Duan was quite emotional when she took the post, saying that raising a child is not easy. From being a baby to being able to run and jump, to being able to get married, she saw that more than ten years of hard work has been spent, and now she has to worry about her. The future, not the time of fear of premature death, is...
Because she was a girl who died of illness in her boudoir, the Jin family was so sad that they did simple things and had no intention of letting anyone come to the door to add fragrance.
Lin Yunyan did go there.
Because Jinning is sick.
Ning Ning has been very close to her since birth and wants to find her when she feels uncomfortable.
Lin Yunyan took Jinning back to Bao'an Garden and stayed there for ten days. With Grandma Ma taking care of her, she could rest assured about her condition.
But at that time, Jinning was confused and had a conversation with Lin Yunyan in the middle of the night.
"Fifth sister has been ill for a long time. I wanted to go to her, but they wouldn't let me go."
"I went there secretly once, and Fifth Sister's body was covered with injuries."
"Fifth sister refuses to take medicine and is forced to take it by grandma. It's so pitiful."
After that, Jinning fell asleep.
I asked her again after she woke up. The child was confused, her words didn't match her words, and she couldn't explain why.
When Lin Lang came to pick up Jinning, Lin Yunyan mentioned it to her.
Lin Lang's face didn't look very good at that time. He looked at his daughter who was talking to Mother Ma and didn't say anything for a while.
After a long time, she said: "Little Ning Ning, even her dreams are real. She doesn't take the medicine herself, but Ashu doesn't. This child is really... Yun Yan, don't take it to heart."
Lin Yunyan smiled and didn't mention it again.
Firstly, Ning Ning is not yet five years old, so everything she sees and says must be discounted.
Furthermore, it was a matter between my aunt and her mother-in-law's family, and she clearly didn't want to mention it. Even if there was something involved, it wasn't like she rushed to Jin's house and pointed out what to do.
We can't listen to Ning Ning saying that Jin Shu is injured, and she, an outsider who can barely hit him with an eight-pole pole, is shouting that she wants to dig a grave and open a coffin, right?
But now, Lin Yunyan is thinking about the past again...
She wanted to save Jinshu.
Ning Ning likes her fifth sister so much.
Jin Shu was about the same age as her, and Lin Yunyan had a good impression of her.
It is a pity that a girl of the same age disappears.
And, somehow, she had a vague feeling in her heart that helping Jin Shu would be beneficial to her.
Unintentionally planting willows to create shade.
It was like she was running for the two boxes of gold bricks, but in the end she dug out the Zhu family and Wang Sixian, and found out the cause of His Royal Highness Ding Wang's death.
Maybe the same thing will happen with Jin Shu, giving her new gains in unexpected places.
So, where should she start...
Lin Yunyan turned to Lin Lang and asked, "Aunt, which flower cake did Ning Ning buy?"
"The one at the corner of Ruyifang Street," Lin Lang said with a smile, "Why are you so greedy? I should have bought a few more, because Ning Ning just cried and couldn't care less."
"It's okay, I'll send someone to buy it." Lin Yunyan said.
Ruyifang is in the west of the city, half a city away from Uncle Chengyi's Mansion.
Lin Yunyan looked for Aunt Wang and had a few words with her.
After the family had lunch, the energetic Jinning was finally tired enough to take a nap, and Grandma Wang came back.
Lin Yunyan saw her expression was strange and asked, "What did you find out?"
Aunt Wang said in a low voice: "The flower cake stall deals with regular customers, so the neighbors will recognize it."
Grandma Wang said that she was only focused on coaxing the children and scared other girls away. The host's family felt very sorry and wanted to buy flower cakes and send them as an apology.
The stall owner was very impressed by Jinning who had cried at the stall in the morning, so he said that he was a regular customer, so he didn't need to be so particular. The next time a customer came over, he could just talk to them.
Aunt Wang had a clever tongue and followed the question to find out where her regular customers lived.
"He said, it seems to be in Narcissus Alley," Grandma Wang's voice became even lower, "I wanted to ask again, but an old woman next to me winked at me, and then she whispered to me, that girl learned how to Go to the outer room of the young master who caused the uproar. Her son works as an errand in the Yamen and has seen people. Princess, isn’t that..."
This time, it was Lin Yunyan's turn to be surprised.
The little lady Liu Xun raised over there?
Yue Niang?
