Lin Rui knew that his original body did have an older brother named Lin Zixing.

They are all from the "Zi" generation. The eldest brother is called Lin Zixing, and he is called Lin Zirui. Later, people got used to calling them Lin Rui and Lin Rui, so they omitted the middle character. Lin Ziming, Lin Zijun and Lin Zikun from the same clan are all called the same.

The eldest brother had been away from home for a long time. Lin Mu was now a fifteen-year-old boy who was about to get married. When Lin Zi left, Lin Mu was only eight years old. He had been gone for seven years. Even though there was no news from him, everyone assumed that the eldest brother had died outside.

The Lin Dynasty did not become so weak overnight that it opened the country's doors to plunder by foreign races, but it became worse and worse year by year. In the past, there were wars with foreign races every year, which almost consumed the pillars of the people's livelihood.

This is also why Feng Zhenniang and Lin Changxi doted on Lin Rui, because he was their only son.

Even the eldest grandson is not as good as the youngest son in their hearts.

Lin Rui was a little confused at this moment: "Did you see it? Isn't it someone who looks similar?"

The eldest sister-in-law raised her red eyes and said, "It's absolutely true. How could I have been wrong about my man?"

"He was also in the wedding procession, dressed in military uniform. I recognized him from afar. After much inquiry, I found out where he lived. He was one of the personal soldiers assigned to Miss Xu by the Marquis of Jiangyin. He came here with his family and will be residing at Huangmo Pass. I saw him return home, holding and teasing the twins, who called him daddy."

"How have I, Lu Sufen, wronged him? Why is he so ungrateful? He doesn't want a home or children anymore. It's been seven years, seven years! He doesn't go home and doesn't visit his relatives!"

“Woo woo woo!”

In Lin Rui's opinion, sister-in-law Lu is indeed a very good sister-in-law. The original owner had been doing mischief outside and owed debts. Not only did his parents help him work to pay off the debts, but the sister-in-law also embroidered during the slack season to supplement his income. In short, no matter what difficulties Lin Zixing had in this matter, Lin Rui would stand on the side of the sister-in-law, and he would repay whoever he received kindness from.

Lin Mu was also furious and stood aside with his fingers clenched.

Lin Rui pondered for a moment and said, "I'll go find Lin Zixing tomorrow and ask him about it."

Feng Zhenniang was still missing her son, but she couldn't express it too much in front of her eldest daughter-in-law. She could only look at Lin Rui eagerly and said, "Brother Rui, if you meet your eldest brother tomorrow, please tell him nicely."

Lin Rui nodded: "Okay, mother, I'll save it."

The next day, Lin Rui sat in the tent camp in a daze. Xing Lie, who had just found his partner, looked at him and patted his desk: "Master Lin, Master Lin?"

Lin Rui's thoughts finally came back to him: "Ah? Lord, what are your instructions?"

Xing Lie shook his head: "I always see you distracted this morning, but what's bothering you?"

Han Wenjing smiled and said, "This is quite unusual. Is there anything in Huangmo Pass that could stump Lord Lin?"

Lin Rui waved his hand: "What are you all thinking about? When I got home from work yesterday, my parents told me that they saw my eldest brother who had been away from home for seven years!"

"Wow!" Xu Wenxuan was surprised: "It's a good thing to meet again after such a long time."

Lin Rui smiled bitterly, "If it were just him, that would be a good thing, but he seems to have remarried and had children. My sister-in-law has been waiting for him at home for seven years, contributing to the family income, raising the children, and taking care of the elderly. If he really does this, what do you think I should do?"

"Oh, this is really difficult!" Chen Zhidong also sighed.

Xing Lie considered this a little more than the others: "Why did he come at my wedding ceremony yesterday, not earlier or later? Could he have been working under the Marquis of Jiangyin?"

The truth is out! Lin Rui nodded.

Xing Lie: "I'll ask someone to inform the Madam."

Lin Rui quickly waved his hand: "It's just a family matter, so please don't worry about it, Madam. I plan to go and see the situation myself first. If it is true, I will make other plans."

"Okay!" Xing Lie also nodded. If Lord Lin really recognized his brother as his relative, he would transfer him to the Xing family army camp as a deputy general or commander. It would be better than being a soldier who only protected female family members all his life.

Lan Xin helped her husband Lin Zixing, who had just returned from his shift, to take off his clothes and asked anxiously, "How is it?"

Lin Zixing shook his head in disappointment: "The steward told us not to have such thoughts. Our main job is to protect the young lady."

As the private soldier of Marquis Jiangyin, if he were in Marquis Jiangyin's territory, he might be able to climb up the ladder by winning battles and being rewarded for his merits. However, Marquis Jiangyin was too cautious and would not send troops out easily, which made him stand still in the past few years.

In the past, he thought it was good enough to be alive and have enough to eat, but now Lan Xin has given birth to two children for him. As a father, he wants to move up a level to make his family live a better life and prevent his two children from being peasants like him in the future.

Lan Xin was not disappointed now. Thinking of the information she had just learned from the women outside, she felt a stir in her heart: "Boss, you once told me that you have a younger brother..."

"I told you not to mention it again!" Lin Zixing felt guilty towards his family. He had lived for many years but did not dare to leave the territory of Marquis Jiangyin because of the chaos in the outside world. He even remarried here. He already had a wife and son in Linjia Village!

Lan Xin actually knew a little about Lin Zixing's family affairs, and of course she knew that he was already married. It was just that at that time she was a disaster victim who had just fled to the territory of Jiangyin Hou. If she hadn't met Lin Zixing, she would have been unable to survive. She could only use all her strength to marry him and have children with him so that she would have the confidence to settle down.

"Boss, they may not be dead. I heard today that the famous God of Wealth, Mr. Lin, from Huangmo Pass is also named Lin Rui." Lan Xin said.

Lin Zixing immediately shook his head: "Impossible, it's just the same name."

Lan Xin also felt that she had taken things for granted.

"It belongs to the Lin family, it belongs to the Lin family!"

A familiar and excited voice of a neighbor came from outside the house, accompanied by a knock on the door. The couple looked at each other, and Lan Xin immediately ran over to open the door: "I'm coming!"

Lan Xin looked at the person who came: "Aunt Fang, what are you doing?"

"Hurry, hurry, the commander-in-chief is here!" After saying this, Aunt Fang looked at Lan Xin with envy: "Lan Xin, your family's luck has come. When you become prosperous, don't forget to help us old neighbors!"

Lan Xin was completely confused by what he said, but she extracted a key piece of information and immediately ran home: "Boss, the commander-in-chief is here to see you!"

Lin Zixing was also stunned. He didn't understand why the commander-in-chief came here. The status of the two was as different as a ravine. He was not even qualified to make the commander-in-chief look at him.

Thinking of this, he became panicked and quickly put the two children on the bed and rushed out.

When he was about to reach the door, he saw the commander-in-chief, who used to look down on others, bowing and scraping to a young and handsome man: "Master Lin, Master Lin will be staying here."
