Ajiu

Chapter 39 First Meeting
As soon as the boat docked, Lin Youhui's elder brother Lin Yan boarded the boat with his entourage.He is as good-looking as Lin Youhui, tall and straight, with a clear and handsome face, and his bookish atmosphere is dignified and calm, which is awe-inspiring.

"Uncle is a beautiful man, and he is quite handsome!" Ajiu was very happy.

Lin Youhui went up to meet him, and called "Big Brother" with tears in his eyes. Lin Yan was full of emotion, "Little sister, you are still the same." Seeing her sister's face pale and pink, moist and bright, she knew that her life was extremely comfortable, and felt relieved.

Second Master Pei hugged Ajiu, led Ajiu, and led Aqi, and walked over with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a few years, brother-in-law is still handsome." When Lin Shangshu was the governor of Su Song, he and Brother Lin often came Often go, like-minded, sympathetic to each other.

Lin Youhui coquettishly said, "Where is the demeanor that is still the same? My husband, the elder brother is clearly more elegant than before!" The elder brother was still a little young back then, but his demeanor now is very different.

Lin Yan smiled, "My little sister has always been very eloquent. As a big brother, I appreciate it very much. I especially like to listen to what my little sister says today."

Everyone laughed.Everyone exchanged greetings with Dao Qikuo, saluted and said hello, Ah Jiu also got off the ground, and met his uncle with his brothers.Lin Yan bent down to pull up the children, and looked at them one by one, "Ah Qi, Ah Yuan, they are all good children, and my uncle likes them." He patted Pei Qi and Pei Yuan's heads lovingly and affectionately.

When it came to the youngest Ajiu, Lin Yan deliberately pretended to be confused, "This little girl is so cute, whose family are you from? What's your name?"

Ajiu raised her small face and smiled very pleasantly, "It's our first meeting, I'm Ajiu."

Her little face is pink, her skin is as crystal clear as the first snow in winter, her two big eyes are dark and lively, and she has a sweet smile on her face, which is simply fascinating.Seeing her small appearance, Lin Yan was already heartbroken, and when she heard her self-introduction in a childlike voice, she fell in love even more. She knelt down and looked at her with a smile, "So it's the little girl Ajiu, who has been admiring her for a long time. .”

Ah Jiu cupped his hands at him with a serious expression, "It turns out to be the eldest uncle, who has heard his name for a long time, and it is like thunder." The child spoke the adult's words in a serious manner, resembling his appearance.

Her parents and brothers are familiar with her, and they are all amused. It's the first time you meet your uncle, Ajiu, and you are so naughty!Lin Yan was also brilliant, "Little sister, Ajiu is exactly the same as when you were a child! When you were a child, you were not afraid of meeting strangers, you liked to laugh, and your words and deeds were generous and bright."

Lin Yan looked at little Ajiu, feeling really itchy in her heart, and reached out to hug her up.Lin Youhui covered his mouth with a smile, "Brother, do you know how to hold children? Don't throw Ah Jiu."

Lin Yan doesn't know how to hold a child.Lin Youhui's sister-in-law, Feng Shi, once wrote a letter complaining, "Little sister, your elder brother is different from your brother-in-law. He has never hugged either of his two sons and one daughter."

Lin Yan coughed, "Is there anything wrong with holding the baby?" Ajiu smiled sweetly at him, and skillfully moved around in his arms, moving into a relatively comfortable position, directing while moving, "Uncle, you wrap your arms around my waist...yes, that's it..."

Ajiu took good care of herself, and she could feel comfortable in the arms of Lin Yan, the baby-carrying student.

Lin Youhui smiled sweetly, Second Master Pei touched his nose, my dear girl, you are really easygoing.

There are many people coming and going in Tongzhou, and the inns are often full and there are no vacant rooms.However, the Lin family had already set up a small clean courtyard, waiting for Lin Youhui's family to board the boat and go ashore, so they could rest and settle down.

What surprised Pei Erye and Lin Youhui was that the three families on the boat had someone to pick them up.Lin Mingtang came in person, Chen Lingyun was the steward of the Linjiang Marquis Mansion, and even Zhao Zhen had the steward wife of the Nanxiong Marquis Mansion waiting for him.

Lin Mingtang's father was about 40 years old, with delicate features, and he couldn't tell he was a scumbag just from his appearance.He politely thanked Second Master Pei and took Lin Mingtang away.

Tongzhou is still a day or two away from the capital, and he can pick up his youngest son in person, which shows that he still loves him a little.

After Chen Lingyun thanked Second Master Pei, he followed the steward and got into the carriage.He brought many servants and maids with him, but the veiled woman with a slim figure had disappeared.Did you leave by boat?Or is it temporarily hidden?He didn't say anything, and no one asked.

The mother-in-law of Nanxionghou's mansion was not sent by Mrs. Fang, but was ordered by Nanxionghou.They were all smiles and thanked Pei Erye's family, but when they really saw the real lord Zhao Zhen, they smiled and didn't have a good face.As for Mei Mu and Cousin, they didn't even look away from the corners of their eyes.

Seeing off the three families, Second Master Pei and Lin Youhui felt relieved.

When I arrived at the inn, I saw that the three upper rooms and the two wing rooms were clean and comfortable, fresh and pleasant.Second Master Pei couldn't help saying a few polite words to Lin Yan, "Brother Brother, I'm grateful for your trouble."

Lin Yan knew him well on the one hand, and on the other hand saw his younger sister, niece and nephew happy, and asked jokingly, "How can I thank me? Why don't you give me little Ajiu? A goddamn girl."

Second Master Pei laughed, "Ask Ajiu if she is willing. If she is willing, I will not refuse." My daughter is so clever, brother, you can't be fooled.

Sure enough, Lin Yan asked about Ajiu, and Ajiu shook her little head again and again, "No way! I already have three fathers, no more!" Stretching out her little finger to count them one by one, "My eldest father, my father, my father Three fathers..."

After counting, Yin Qin looked at Lin Yan, "Uncle, there are already a lot, right?"

It's already full, so don't join in the fun.

She smiled sweetly, her pink face was moist and smooth, cute and intoxicating, her big eyes were full of anticipation, as if she was waiting for Lin Yan's nod of approval.

This was probably the sweetest and funniest rejection Lin Yan had ever received in his life.Although he was rejected, it was like drinking iced tea in dog days. Every pore of his body was refreshed and comfortable, and he felt extremely happy.

Lin Yan reached out and hugged little Ajiu, laughing loudly.

Ajiu got her wish and asked for two basins of bath water, washed it once, and washed it again.After taking a comfortable bath, Lin Youhui really patted honey for her, and the refreshing fragrance of Sophora japonica came over her from time to time, and Ajiu closed her eyes intoxicated.

Lin Youhui also washed and dressed up, looking completely new.She has always paid attention to appearance, even when she is a guest, she is very particular about her long gown of light yellow brocade, embroidered with several green roses. Jinbuyao, glittering and translucent, bright and gorgeous.

Ajiu has also been carefully dressed by her, her hair is combed into a cute double bun, she wears a cross-necked slanted breasted cherry blossom powder palace satin narrow jacket, and a light autumn-colored long skirt, immature, beautiful, elegant and agile.

"My dear miss, hurry up, the uncle, uncle, and two young masters are waiting for you." Nanny Li reminded and complained at the same time, urging Lin Youhui to eat quickly.

Lin Youhui was well dressed, in a happy mood, and smiled, "No hurry, let them wait."

Nanny Li was anxious, "Aren't you hungry?" Seeing that the nanny was anxious, Lin Youhui smiled and said, "You're hungry, let's go." Leading little Ajiu, he walked into the hall.

Lin Youhui led Ajiu into the hall, Pei Qi and Pei Yu came up to say hello, little Pei Yu also complained, "Mother, are you hungry?" Ajiu giggled, "Sixth brother, being pretty can make you hungry, you know? "

Lin Youhui smiled and patted Ajiu to express his appreciation, and all the men supported their foreheads.

Women, regardless of their age, are all obsessed with beauty.

The dishes were hearty and delicious. Ah Jiu bulged her cheeks and ate deliciously.I just went on a long journey, took a shower, and took a honey shot. It was very exhausting and I needed to replenish energy.

Lin Yan looked at the little Ajiu who was quietly carrying a bowl to eat, and asked curiously: "Ajiu can eat by herself? How do I remember that when Ahao was her age, she still had to be fed by a wet nurse."

After Lin Yan had his eldest son, Lin Shaobin, he had a daughter next. One son and one daughter were named "Hao", so they were named Lin Hao.Lin Hao is 12 years old this year, she is a big girl.

Ajiu continued to concentrate on eating, Lin Youhui gave her a loving look, "Brother, Ajiu can save trouble, she is never naughty. She can eat by herself since she was very young, no need to feed or coax her."

Lin Yan was amazed, "Ajiu is a genius!"

Take Ajiole's.You can eat by yourself, and you don't need to coax you to eat, so you are a little genius?It's too easy to be a genius today.

Only children have this kind of treatment, it's good to be a child!Ajiu raised her face and giggled, eating half a bowl of rice in a happy mood.

After dinner, remove the leftovers, hold tea, sit and chat. "The chief executive of this department is Dai Hengtai, the minister of rites, and the vice president is Ding Xian, the right deputy capital censor." Lin Yan said slowly, playing with the teacup in his hand.

As usual, the examination is presided over by the Ministry of Rites, and the emperor appoints the principal and vice president.There is probably no candidate who does not care about the candidates and preferences of the chief and vice presidents.

...Examinations, one of the most hated things in the world... Ajiu was sleepy and dozed off, not forgetting the slanderous examination system.

"... What is there to boast about being the number one scholar? Most of the number one scholar's official careers are not good..." The uncle's voice came to Ajiu's ears indistinctly.

Why are most of the top scholars not doing well in their official careers?In ancient times, high scores and low energy?Ajiu thought curiously and fell asleep unconsciously.

When I woke up again, it was already the next morning.Ajiu stretched happily, "It's nice to sleep in a place that doesn't shake!" Sleeping on the boat, I don't know if the boat is really shaking or it's an illusion, anyway, I always feel that I can't sleep well.This is back to sleep on land, steadfast.

After grooming and having breakfast, the group of people should ride horses, those who should get in the car, and set off back to the capital.Lin Yan cared about his nephew and niece, so he specially took the children into his carriage.His carriage is well-designed. It looks black and flat on the outside, simple and unobtrusive, but the inside is spacious and bright, elegant and comfortable.There is a horizontal board in the front, on which are placed teacups, warm nests, dessert covers, etc., and there are seven or eight brocade backrests and pillows in the back, covered with thick ancient gold silk carpets.

Lin Yan is very knowledgeable and elegant in conversation, and Ajiu loves him very much. "Uncle, what are you doing..." Ajiu swallowed the word "work" that was on the verge of her mouth, tilted her head for a while, and asked cheerfully, "Where do you get a high school?"
