PFC Chapter 221 Lin Family!
Chapter 221 Lin Family!
Gu Jingzhi looked around and saw an old man who was about seventy years old.
Although he is in his seventies, he walks with the gait of a dragon and a tiger, his eyes are bright, and you can tell at first glance that he is a martial artist.
"Jingzhi, you are my grandson Jingzhi?"
Lin Jiatu's hands were trembling slightly, but he held Gu Jingzhi's hands tightly, with tears in his eyes.
"Grandpa, I'm Jingzhi, your nephew!"
Although it was the first time the two met, Gu Jingzhi felt a sense of familiarity in his bones.
Lin Jiatu's lips trembled. "You've suffered so much these past few years. It's because of my grandfather's incompetence that he couldn't protect you. This has caused you to have such a hard time these past twenty years."
"Grandfather, what are you talking about? Isn't everything fine now? Not only am I safe and sound, I've also avenged my parents and the Lin family. With me here, no one will dare to bully us!"
"well!"
Lin Jiatu patted Gu Jingzhi's hands and said with satisfaction and pride: "My grandson is really amazing!"
Gu Jingzhi: “…”
The grandfather and grandson were chatting here, but an old lady beside them scolded him: "You old man, it's so cold, why are you dragging your grandson here to talk? Why don't you go inside to chat?"
"Haha, look at my memory. I forgot everything as soon as Jing came here. Come on, come in!"
As he spoke, he pulled Gu Jingzhi into the house, fearing that Gu Jingzhi would catch a cold.
Gu Jingzhi smiled and said, "Grandfather, please slow down!"
The group returned to the house and just as they sat down, the old lady took Gu Jingzhi's hand, her eyes filled with tears, and said, "Jingzhi, seeing you like this now, your grandmother is relieved! When you go to see my poor Wan'er a hundred years later, you don't have to feel so guilty anymore!"
"Grandma!"
Gu Jingzhi held her hands and said, "I made you worry, I..."
"What are you talking about, kid? The Gu family was once so powerful, and you had no power or influence in the capital, so how could you be their opponent? You've suffered so much over the years!"
"Grandma, I'm not suffering! I just miss you so much knowing that my grandpa and uncle are doing well!"
"Humph!"
Grandfather Lin Jiatu suddenly snorted coldly, "That Gu family is such a piece of shit! They killed my son and imprisoned my grandson. Even the people my Lin family sent to visit them were turned away. They're worse than animals!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Jingzhi consoled him, "Grandfather, please don't be angry. Now that the Gu family is ruined and everyone has received the corresponding punishment, we must look forward and revive the Lin family!"
"Speaking of which, Grandpa should thank you!"
Speaking of the Lin family, Lin Yuantu said with emotion, "I originally asked brothers Chong'er and Feng'er to help you out, but I didn't expect that because of you, they now have military positions!"
"A few days ago, Chong'er wrote to me saying that he has been promoted to the rank of captain in the border army, commanding a thousand soldiers. He is now considered a cavalry commander of a thousand men!"
"Feng'er is even more impressive. Before he even reached adulthood, he's already the chief officer of your guard. My Lin family is probably going to have two generals in the future! Haha..."
Having said that, the old man burst into laughter.
Then he shouted: "Big Boss, Second Boss, Third Boss..."
"Father!"
Three middle-aged men stood up, and the old man pointed at them and said, "These three are your uncles. Your mother has four brothers and sisters, and she is the youngest. Your aunt married and moved to another county. She probably won't be back until tomorrow!"
Gu Jingzhi immediately bowed and said, "Jingzhi greets my three uncles and aunts!"
There were three middle-aged men. The oldest one was Lin Chong's father and Gu Jingzhi's uncle, Lin Han. He looked like Lin Chong, both of them were honest and simple.
It was he who went to the capital to visit Gu Jingzhi, but was kicked out by the Gu family.
Gu Jingzhi's second uncle Lin Ze is a smart man at first glance, and now he is the one in charge of the entire Lin family.
The main reason was that Lin Chong's father was too honest, so the family business was handed over to his second uncle Gu Jingzhi, and Lin Han was responsible for the Lin family's escort business.
However, after being suppressed by the Gu family, the Lin family’s escort business only has some influence in the northwest!
Gu Jingzhi's third uncle Lin Cheng looks like a scholar. He has been studying at home and has not sought to pass the imperial examinations. He just teaches in Ningzhou Prefecture on weekdays.
When the eldest uncle of the Lin family saw Gu Jingzhi greeting him, he immediately helped him up and said to the young people behind him, "Why don't you come and meet your cousin?"
The three people standing with Lin Feng all saluted Gu Jingzhi: "Hello, cousin!"
Gu Jingzhi looked at Lin Feng, and Lin Feng immediately said, "Cousin, there are seven of us brothers and sisters in total. My eldest brother is the eldest, and we have an older sister who is now married. My second sister is my second uncle's eldest daughter, and she also got married a few years ago. This is my cousin Lin Yong, from my second uncle's family!"
"As for these two..."
He pointed to two little girls in their teens and said, "These two are my sisters."
"Oh?"
Gu Jing was stunned. He didn't expect that they were twins!
After the three of them saluted Gu Jingzhi, the second uncle of the Lin family smiled and said, "Now Chong'er and Feng'er both have military posts. Yong'er likes to study and has always been taught by my third brother!"
"Jingzhi, you are the top scholar. You should give this kid more guidance when you have time in the future!"
"Go away, my grandson doesn't have the time. He has received the emperor's order to tour the northwest on his behalf. He is very busy with official duties..."
"Grandfather! We are all family, why be so polite? Besides..."
Gu Jingzhi looked at Lin Yong and said with a smile, "My cousin Lin Yong has a gentle temperament. I believe he is also a well-read gentleman. It would be nice to have some free time to chat with him."
"I wonder if cousin Lin Yong has any achievements now?"
"Reply cousin!"
Lin Yong said, "I just passed the examination for the title of Scholar last year. I'm thinking of studying for a few more years and then taking the provincial examination!"
"Not bad!"
Gu Jingzhi said with a smile: "It's rare to find a scholar who is only sixteen years old. I can give it a try in two years!"
As he spoke, he pulled Chen Yu and turned to the old man and the others: "Grandfather, grandmother, uncles and aunts, this is my new bride, Chen Yu. Your Majesty granted us marriage years ago, and we just got married!"
"Grandson's wife?"
When the old couple Lin Jiatu heard Gu Jingzhi's introduction, their faces were immediately filled with joy.
When they saw Gu Jingzhi coming with such a dignified woman, they secretly guessed that she must be someone close to Gu Jingzhi, but they did not expect that she was actually the grandson's wife who was married off by the emperor.
Chen Yu saw everyone looking at her, her face flushed slightly, and she bowed slightly: "Granddaughter-in-law greets grandpa, greets grandmother..."
Then came Gu Jingzhi’s uncles and aunts!
Seeing how well behaved she was, everyone nodded slightly in their hearts.
The old lady was even more enthusiastic. She took Chen Yu's hand and repeatedly exclaimed, "Great! This child is good-looking. Grandma likes him!"
As she spoke, she took off a jade bracelet from her hand and said with a smile, "This is my granddaughter-in-law's first visit, and grandma didn't prepare anything. I have worn this bracelet for a few years, and now I will give it to my granddaughter-in-law as a gift!"
"This……"
Chen Yu hesitated and turned his gaze to Gu Jingzhi.
This old man has been wearing this jewelry for some years, so he naturally treasures it very much.
Seeing this, Gu Jingzhi nodded slightly. Chen Yu then cupped her hands and said, "Granddaughter-in-law thanks grandma!"
"You child! You are so polite!"
The old lady gave her a reproachful look, then grabbed her hand and put the jade bracelet on it!
