Chapter 56 The Head of the Household

"Play chess?"

The old man looked at Manager Lin, but was a little surprised, not as surprised as before. After all, he was studying under Mr. Nanshan and it was nothing to know how to play chess.

"How is it?"

"This... I don't know!" The young lady and Changsheng were next to each other. They couldn't see it clearly outside, and they were playing chess on paper, so they didn't count it. Lin Shitong replied truthfully.

The old man shook his head with his beard and said, "This big girl is not simple!" If he hadn't been sure that this big girl was the one she sent away back then, I'm afraid he wouldn't have taken the risk of keeping her in the Lin family at this moment.

This girl is very strange. She can call Madam Zhen a little with just one sentence, and she can say the word "kill" at the right time... Thinking about it, he feels a little chill.

If I hadn't been able to speak lip, I would have never thought that what she said was like.

Be brave, crafty, dare to fight...How good it would be to be a man.

"Old Master, do you want to check again?" If the old master is worried, he will check again. I am afraid that not only him, but the people in the Lin Mansion will think that this young lady is strange everywhere, but she is so partial that she is not afraid of her... she really can't touch the life gate.

He waved his hand, "No need, no need to stare at it anymore. I have been wronged by her over the years, and I can't help but feel a little resentful. Don't lose anything that deserves her."

When the child was born, there was a small red mole at the back of the right ear. If she hadn't combed her hair with her ears and hair, he would have looked closer and clearly, and he would not have dared to be so sure.

"God has this arrangement, and the young lady has good luck. If the old man takes care of him in the future, he will definitely have good fortune."

Lin Shitong said something so sleek and sophisticated. He just wanted to check someone, but now he said that he was lucky and lucky. According to the old man's wishes, he didn't even make a bend.

The old man finally let go of his eyebrows when he was teased, pointed at the other party and smiled, "You are getting more and more naughty as you live, and these words are getting smoother and smoother."

"The old man asked Shi Tong to manage this family. Shi Tong always looks like a housekeeper, right?" Butler Lin did not feel inappropriate at all and argued.

"What should the butler be like? Just like you are now, you laugh at people, talk to people, talk to ghosts, and think about everything, and every word is too heartless?" The old man gradually stopped smiling and sighed. He has made things difficult for him over the years.

Butler Lin smiled and didn't care. "Shitong just thinks that the old man is praising me. It's really not easy for the old man to have these years."

He was full of talent and knowledge, and he retired bravely in the past. If the old man had not left the court, he would not have said what it would be like now. However, even if the court changed, there would definitely be an old man's place. A man's lifelong life can only hide his merits and fame for the Lin family.

"As the head of the family, there is nothing wrong with it. If you don't say this... Is there any news about Kyoto?" When asked, the old man sat up a little.

"No news yet, it should be soon."

"When the news comes, send it here immediately. Also... pay attention to the movements between the Chenghou Mansion and the Liang family." The old man's eyes were deep. As the saying goes, it was a family matter of the Helin Mansion, but there were many ties behind it.

Butler Lin nodded, "Don't worry, old man, you've already stared at him." After saying that, he sighed and said, "The old man has good intentions, but the third master may not understand. Why don't the old man tell him clearly?"

The old man came out, one was to praise the eldest lady and rectify the family tradition, and the other was to help the third wife. The eldest son and the eldest son were caught off guard by the old man when the marriage between the eldest son and the Chenghou Mansion. If it were not known to everyone, the old man would never agree. Besides, the third wife's family is now in a prosperous state, but the old man has always been unfavorable. It has risen too quickly and is not deeply rooted, and a strong wind may be uprooted.

But the Liang family is already in-laws. If something happens, they will not be able to avoid it, so they can only communicate with each other. This time, the third wife was just an opportunity, so the old man took the initiative.

Take the opportunity to pick the third wife, the third wife and the Lin family, and thus the Liang family. If there is really something wrong with the Liang family in the future, the young masters and ladies of the third wife will be less involved.

This kind of good intentions may not be able to understand Sanfang and the rest of the Lin family.

"Forget it, if he can understand and have a far-sighted vision, why should I worry about the future of the Lin family? Shitong, you said that it was right or wrong to choose to retreat to Huai'an City at the beginning? These two people were both bound by this world and their vision was too narrow. If you return to Kyoto, no one could take on the important task of the Lin family!"

In front of the old man who had been working hard with him for many years, Lin Hengchong finally took off his guard and felt a little turbid.

Butler Lin bowed his head and said nothing. The old man was not satisfied with the masters, so he never chose a suitable person from the masters. However, the old man was getting older and the Lin family always had to be taken over by future generations. He could understand the old man's mood.

"The old man is in good health now, so he can train several young masters well. The old man himself will never make any mistakes."

Lin Hengchong sat down slowly and waved his hand, "But do your best, let it be determined. What will happen to the Lin family in the future? I can't force it. I have no conscience." Training? Over the years, he has taken the Lin family to retreat to Huai'an City, so why didn't he make this plan?

But among this group of grandsons, except for Xiaowu, who is the big house and the second house mistress, the others... Alas! The human nature is a bit natural. He wants to cultivate good seedlings, but one is not good, but it hurts the Lin family.

"The old man doesn't have to be so discouraged. The Lin family still needs you to take the helm. The old slave looks at it. The third master and the fifth master are both good."

When talking about these two grandsons, Lin Hengchong's face finally improved a little, "These two are good, but it's a pity that Xiaowu is not in good health, and the mistress... Let's wait for this spring exam, and it's good... The big girl who just came back, if she is a man, is also a good one!"

This evaluation was so high. Lin Shitong couldn't help but look up at the old man. The regret in his words was worth recalling. If this young lady was a young master, it might have been a great fortune.

"The eldest lady is indeed unexpected." Lin Shitong didn't know what to say.

As if he agreed, he nodded, "You send me a message to Qianyuan and ask her to come to Songge to sit with the old man. Wouldn't you be able to play chess?"

A very casual sentence completely changed Lin Shuangyu's situation in the Lin family.

Not to mention all the ladies, even the masters in the house have never seen the old master like this.

Lin Shitong nodded thoughtfully and thought to himself that he would really treat this young lady differently in the future.

But he didn't know that every word Lin Hengchong said could not be casually said, because this granddaughter couldn't figure it out, so he lowered his eyelids and looked at it more. The Lin family's boat could not withstand the storm.

Soon, the storm between the Liang family and Chenghou Mansion was about to come. The current situation in Kyoto changed. He made such a decision at this time, and he was indeed risking the storm that the building was coming!
