Retirement Life - Chapter 71
The most remote county in Laos is Mulin County, which is also the closest to the border. Daling Village is one of them.
The Lin family moved to Mulin County and settled in Daling Village, but this is what Lin Xiu occasionally learned from his grandfather.
Lin Xiu was not very impressed with Grandpa. What I remember most clearly was that Grandpa taught him to read and read.
Grandpa is not the same as the old grandfather in the village. The old grandfather in the village has a sharply bent back and a tanned face.
Grandpa’s back is always upright, just like the green bamboo in Lin Tong, and his clothes are clean. Although Grandpa had a white beard, he was different from everyone else in the village.
It wasn’t until later that Lin Xiu grew up that he understood what kind of person Grandpa was.
It’s a pity that Grandpa will not die until one day when Lin Xiu grows up.
Little Lin Xiu and his eldest brother knelt aside, and the cries of father and mother were in their ears. The younger sister was also infected by the cry and wailed aloud.
At that time Lin Xiu was at a loss. He didn’t know why his grandpa couldn’t wake up, and why his father and mother cried so desperately.
Lin Xiu didn’t understand it until later when he grew up, became a husband and father, and his parents were old.
Even though he has grown up, he can stand alone, but in the presence of his parents, he still thinks that he is a child to be dependent on.
But at the moment when my parents died, I also realized that my backing was no longer there. From now on, no matter how rough the road ahead is, the thorns are everywhere, and I can only walk alone.
After grandpa’s death, the family changed.
Dad became taciturn, and took his eldest brother with no learning talent to farm in the fields. Every morning and night, not long after, the original white face was also tanned.
The mother no longer stayed in the house like she used to, and started chatting with other villagers in the village. Even the rouge gouache and jewelry worn every day were put away, and the clothes they wore became inferior.
Although in the eyes of others, it was a Chinese suit, but Lin Xiu was still swollen by those clothes.
Lin Xiu knew that all these changes began after the death of grandpa.
Remembering that Grandpa used to let him study well and come back for a test.
Lin Xiu started to stay in the house reading books and endorsements like a sorrow. He was wondering, as long as he got the first prize, their family would return to the original state?
In this way, after Lin Xi read all the books in Grandpa’s box, he begged his father to let him go to the academy to study.
Reading really costs money, but fortunately, there is no shortage of money in their home.
However, after Lin Xiuzhong was a talent, the savings left in their family were not enough.
Lin Xiu has many brothers, elder brother, three younger sisters, four younger brothers, and five younger brothers and six younger brothers.
His family spends the most money on paper and pencils he bought for reading and the medicine his four brothers need to take.
In Lin Xiu’s impression, only four brothers in their family often get sick, which is much weaker than their brothers in the village.
Every three to five are lying in bed and have to take medicine every day. Every time I went to see him in the fourth brother’s room, Lin Xiu felt that the smell of Chinese medicine in the room was so irritating.
Lin Xiu doesn’t live at home often, but every time he comes back from Xiu Mu, he will go to the fourth brother’s room to see him.
In the beginning, the younger brother looked carefully at him.
Lin Xiu and his younger brother are not close to each other, but when they see him, there is always some pity in his eyes. It is probably the closeness of the blood that the mother said.
Maybe it’s because they know that the only brother in their family is weak. To make it awkward is that they can’t sleep any day, and everyone’s attention is on him.
Even the eldest brother’s two children, his niece and niece, were slightly sensible, sticking behind the fourth brother all day, just like two little tails.
When Lin Xiu was able to take a break from the first month of the summer that year, he returned home and realized that his elder brother had suffered a serious injury not long ago. Fortunately, his elder brother had a life.
Before Lin Xiu could take a breath, he was pulled into the room by his elder brother to talk, and at that time, their family’s life had changed tremendously.
The elder brother said that he lived another life.
But in the elder brother’s previous life, after his No. 1 champion was a senior official, his family was caught in a conspiracy and his family was killed. No one was alive.
When Lin Xiu heard the news, his brain was shaken, and then he got his fourth brother who was no longer the original fourth brother.
Later, Lin Xiu accepted the new brother.
However, Lin Xiu found that his new brother often misses him through him and his elder brother.
Before he rushed to Beijing to take part in the conference test, their family also moved to the county under the leadership of his eldest brother and fourth brother.
Unlike the elder brother’s previous life, this family has one more Cheng Yan.
At first, Lin Xiu knew that this person must be extraordinary when he saw Cheng Yan.
Lin Xiu was a little worried. If Cheng Yan had his wife and children before her memory loss, what would their younger brother do?
In the elder brother’s words, Lin Xiu also learned about the character of his younger brother.
After arriving at the imperial city to learn about Cheng Yan’s true identity, Lin Xiu also determined that his brother-in-law’s identity was indeed extraordinary.
His status in Laos is second only to His Majesty King Cheng, the emperor, and he holds the entire military power of Laos, which is no longer found in Laos.
His Royal Highness Cheng hasn’t had one of her concubines so far. When Lin Xiu was relieved, another question was raised in her heart.
His Royal Highness Cheng is rumored to be violent and moody. Lin Xiu doesn’t think it’s just a matter of talking about it. However, some people have seen soldiers from other countries get scared and pale after hearing the name of Cheng.
Lin Xiu was a little worried. Will Cheng Yan be bad for his brother after he restores his memory?
However, this worry disappeared after seeing the fourth brother and Cheng Yan getting along.
Cheng Yan had indeed restored his memory, but he also favored his fourth brother more than before.
After all the issues were resolved, Lin Xiu began to concentrate on reading.
On the way to the imperial city, Lin Xiu and his colleague Yu Yange became confidantes, and also knew that there were people outside the sky who were so called.
Lin Xiu felt that the title of No. 1 champion in this world was probably not on him.
Obviously, Yu Yange’s talent was learned on him, and he heard more than him.
Also, they were not originally in the same place, one was a noble family member, and the other was a humble student in a remote county.
Lin Xiu’s mind was a little bit embarrassing. He vaguely remembered that when he was a kid, their clothes were like Yu Yange.
As for why he changed in the back, he seemed to forget.
After living in the palace for some time, Lin Xiu met one person, a noble person, one day.
Cheng Yan’s brother is also the elder brother with the highest status. There are two close brothers, one is today’s son, and the other is His Royal Highness Cheng.
Lin Xiuyuan thought that the two of them had nothing to do with each other. And he will be like the elder brother’s previous life, until the official promotion to the highest position is also alone.
However, he did not expect that he would eventually become An Jinyuan’s husband.
Lin Xiu had been thinking, climbing to the highest position after being an official, assisting His Majesty and His Royal Highness Cheng to step down his Prime Minister and King Jing.
However, he did not expect that the second day before the fourth brother and Cheng Yan got married, he was preparing for the palace test. The prime minister was arrested in jail for guilty of colluding with another country for rebellion, and was cut off daily.
The regent Wang Jing was also degraded as a commoner, and was assigned to a barren place, and future generations could not enter the Imperial City for life.
When hearing these news, Lin Xiu’s head was cyanotic.
All this is different from what he thought. He hasn’t taken the final step of the scientific examination. Why did the Prime Minister step down?
However, Lin Xiu only reacted after he was afraid that after his father and elder brother rescued Cheng Yan, after the fourth brother married Cheng Yan, the development trajectory of their family had deviated from the previous life.
All the problems had been resolved, and Lin Xiu’s tight heartstrings had been loosened.
However, when thinking of An Jinyuan, Lin Xiu was a little lost.
His Highness Jin Yuan will choose one of the top horses in the top three of the scientific examination, which is likely to be the champion champion. These news Lin Xiu had heard about before.
Lin Xiu didn’t care about this at first, but after realizing that His Highness Jin Yuan appeared more and more frequently in his mind, Lin Xiu knew that he was about to finish.
He fell in love with An Jinyuan, Lao Guo’s most honorable brother.
Lin Xiu knows who he is, and he and His Highness Jin Yuan are impossible.
However, after learning from the fourth brother that An Jinyuan thought of him, Lin Xiu thought that he and An Jinyuan might be possible.
Sure enough, after the palace trial, even if he was only the second place, but still became His Majesty His Highness Jin Yuan.
One month after the imperial candidacy of the imperial husband, his wedding with Jin Yuan was also ushered in.
After the marriage they were very happy, and their brothers were married.
Everything is different from the older brother’s previous life.
