Chapter 251: Underestimating Her (Two More in One)
Auditing? The martial arts sect has its own path and mental method, how can it be observed if it is not a disciple of the sect? Mrs. Lin can have such a strange request, but she thinks that she has grasped a few of their sisters and brothers, and seeing that the old man in the middle of the mountain has lived in Meizhuang for a long time, it seems that he loves Minghui very much, so she deliberately coaxed their sister and brother to ask the old man in the middle of the mountain.
Zhiruo was speechless on the spot, this quite shrewd woman would not suddenly have her head crash because of excessive maternal love, thinking that the old man in the middle of the mountain was short of money, or worried that the old man had nothing to rely on, so she took hold of their sister and brother, and the old man in the middle of the mountain was helpless?
Mrs. Lin learned a lesson from the embarrassment of the failure to pry Mama You last time, and refused to talk to the old man in the middle of the mountain again, only saying that she would like to ask Zhiruo and Minghui to be sisters and brothers. It's a pity that she was unlucky, and Minghui, who Lin Jun went to find in person, brought the old man in the middle of the mountain with him. The old man in the middle of the mountain had a dark face from the time he came in to the time he pulled Minghui away, and he didn't even look at Mrs. Lin, but said two words to Zhiruo with a depressed face: When he was a disciple, he didn't like outsiders to be there, and he didn't like to be disturbed, so he didn't care what guests were or not. The next time someone trespasses, he will treat him as a thief who is trying to peek at his martial arts in the middle of the mountain, and throw people out directly.
The old man in the middle of the mountain is undoubtedly a handsome uncle, but it is a pity that no matter how handsome the person is, he has a black face, and his speech is hard and cold, which makes people retreat, and he can clearly see Lin Jun trembling uncontrollably.
Sure enough, as soon as the old man in the middle of the mountain left, Lin Jun couldn't help sobbing anymore: "Mother, I won't learn martial arts from him anymore." Let's hurry away and never come again. "Although the name of the old man's disciple in the middle of the mountain is very good, and having two characters like Shi Xin and Qi Haotian as senior brothers also has a lot of capital to brag and show off, and there is also a lot of reliance, but his life is more important, so he doesn't want to face such a fierce person every day.
Mrs. Lin was scared and angry, and she felt sorry for her son, who was so frightened that she almost peed his pants, and left in a hurry with Lin Jun with a complicated expression.
Although Zhiruo was very sure that the old man in the middle of the mountain would not accept the so-called audit, she was still shocked by his sudden outburst, since she met, the old man in the middle of the mountain she had seen was the scoundrel and lovely and beautiful half-old wine fairy. Could it be that Lin Jun himself went to talk about the audit? It's just that it wouldn't be so serious to disturb Minghui's martial arts practice, right? But she had already told Mrs. Lin in advance about the rules of the old man in the middle of the mountain. However, Lin Jun said that he would not disturb Minghui's martial arts practice, so he waited at the foot of the back mountain.
It wasn't until Minghui finished practicing martial arts that Zhiruo knew that Lin Jun was not waiting at the bottom of the mountain at all. He went directly to the place where they practiced martial arts and said that his mother had something to do with Minghui. A moment of reprimand. emphasized that his father was a prefect and was kind to the Yin family, and he learned Minghui's movements for a while. He also proudly asked the old man in the middle of the mountain if he had a talent for martial arts than Minghui, and he didn't see that the old man in the middle of the mountain had a face as black as the bottom of a pot. Finally, the old man broke out......
If I only thought of one sentence at that time, a loving mother has many defeated children, and Lord Lin should not be able to teach such a stupid and stupid son!
As expected, early in the morning of the second day, Governor Lin personally came to the door to apologize to the old man in the middle of the mountain, and read that the governor of Lin was really good to Meizhuang, and the old man in the middle of the mountain finally showed his face, but he had a dark face throughout the whole day, and the only few words were not very good. Just like that, Uncle Qiang also said that this was already to save face, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he didn't see Lord Lin leaving?
If it was said that the last time Concubine Zhao of the Rui Wangfu coveted some dim sum, Governor Lin might have deliberately indulged Mrs. Lin, but if he believed it, he must not have known about it in advance. Without it, these people in the officialdom know best how high and low their eyebrows, their interests are good and bad, and their orphans and orphans are easy to bully, but the old man in the middle of the mountain is not something he dares to calculate and can calculate.
So, it's only been half a month, and Mrs. Lin is making a comeback again today, does Lord Lin know? Zhiruo remembers very clearly, and the old man in the middle of the mountain asked coldly that day: "Lord Lin is a good official, if the girls also know gratitude, my old man is not wrong, right?" At that time, Governor Lin's face was red, and he nodded in disdain: "Of course, of course." β
Knowing that if she thinks about it, she feels so refreshing, if she is not good at speaking, the old man in the middle of the mountain has no scruples, who can know better than himself the benefits that Governor Lin has taken care of Meizhuang?
It's just that Mrs. Lin also knows it? Or did she really take their siblings for fools?
In any case, I still have to see her, of course, it means that she has to go downstairs to receive Mrs. Lin.
When Zhiruo walked into the hospitality hall, Mrs. Lin's mother and daughter were smiling happily sipping freshly baked pastries and milk tea. I couldn't help but think that Mrs. Lin came to Meizhuang at every turn, did she also enjoy the fun of using free snacks? They can still walk around after eating, and they are all used to it.
Zhiruo really didn't care about this refreshment, and the snacks were expensive, but in their plum village, even the lowest-grade rough slaves could eat three or four times a month.
What she cares about is that some people are really unfed!
"If the girl is here," Mrs. Lin looked close and familiar, "This honey bean cake is really good, let someone wrap a few more pieces for me later, Rong'er and Jun'er both like to eat with red beans." β
Zhiruo smiled: "If you like it, pack a few more pieces, now there is no problem with this climate for two or three days, but it is delicious to eat fresh, and the taste is worse on the second day." "The pastries that are sold are easy to sell, and they are basically sold on the same day, and occasionally a few pieces are sold at half price two quarters of an hour before the store closes, and they are usually sold out by people waiting to buy half-price dim sum at the first point. Of course, the owner who has a good face and is not short of money will avoid the point-to-point dim sum shop, for fear that people will think that he is going for half price.
Lin Rong's face involuntarily became hot, she invited two handkerchiefs to play in the house tomorrow, thinking of using this honey bean cake to entertain, so that her mother asked for a few more pieces, otherwise Lin Jun would eat it up alone, how could she stay until tomorrow?
But at this moment, Zhiruo responded cheerfully and enthusiastically, why did she feel so uncomfortable?
Mrs. Lin didn't think much about it, and printed the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief. smiled and said: "I've been busy lately, I finally took time out today, I heard that Miss Pan Wu lives here, so I came over to take a look, the little girl should be the first time to leave the capital, right? I don't know if I'm used to it? Rong'er and I brought her some exquisite gadgets, hoping to relieve some of her discomfort." β
was busy until the day before yesterday, Lin Rong's family affairs were basically decided, although she failed to climb to the British Mansion, she was satisfied. Of course, if Lin Rong can befriend Princess Chunxi through Pan Shuling. Then it fell into the eyes of the British duchess and even the queen's mother. Then after she marries into the capital, will she have something to rely on? Maybe she can help her father and help her father rise step by step.
Zhiruo frowned in embarrassment: "This ...... , Aunt Lin, although the fifth girl Pan is young. But it's a distinguished guest. When Pan Shizi sent her over, he said that it was to prevent outsiders from disturbing the little girl. also explained a bunch of rules. You see, if you ...... I really want to see you, or I'll let someone report it. Look at ......"
Lin Rong pursed her lips: "What does she know as a child? If she doesn't want to come over, let's just go to the Stargazing Academy." If you are too rigid, sister, Pan Shizi doesn't like messy people to disturb Miss Pan Wu, but you know our identity, and we are very familiar with it, what is there to worry about? If it weren't for Sister Xuan'er's sister who happened to be about the same age as Miss Pan Wu, Pan Shizi might have let Miss Pan live in the prefect's mansion. β
Zhiruo seemed to think about it very seriously, but still hesitated: "No, Miss Pan is a distinguished guest, not a relative of our Yin family, so I am not qualified to make decisions for her." Aunt Lin, Sister Rong, and Miss Pan are children, but there is a Ling Mama given by the queen's mother by her side. β
Having said that, what can Mrs. Lin's mother and daughter do except nod their heads? Zhiruo's words are reasonable, they really don't want to force it, and they don't dare to force it to go directly to the stargazing courtyard, otherwise they would have gone a long time ago. Waiting for Zhiruo to take them over, isn't it just in case, so that Zhiruo can take responsibility? Pan Shizi entrusted his sister to Meizhuang, and Zhiruo took someone to the courtyard where she lived without permission, isn't it hers?
And they, with good intentions to visit the little girl, how do they know what Pan Shizi has to explain, and whether Pan Wufei is willing? In case Pan Shizi, the British Mansion, and even the queen really mind so much, it is not good to attack them, right?
It's a pity that they are calculating, but people know that they are unwilling to cooperate. Lin Rong gritted her teeth secretly: No wonder the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion wants to degrade his wife to a concubine, so cautious and hesitant, so rigid, how can he be the housewife of the director of the house, or the housewife of the Hou Mansion? No matter how down-and-out the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion is, is it the Hou Mansion?
Mrs. Lin couldn't help but take a deep look at Zhiruo, inexplicably, she just felt that since then, Yin Zhiruo didn't seem to be as considerate and empathetic as she was at the beginning. Did you find something? Or did you focus on clinging to the Jingwang Mansion and look down on their prefect's mansion? Or, did you hear about the recent wind direction in the capital, and knew that Yin Zhao's treason was basically not convicted, and the emperor was talking about Yin Zhao and his wife more and more often?
Suddenly, Mrs. Lin's ears rang with Mother You's repeated words of "kindness" and "repaying gratitude", as well as the mocking words of the old man in the middle of the mountain who the old man brought back in anger not long ago, and her heart became more and more unhappy.
Mrs. Lin was thinking a lot here, and Ruchun had already returned, and she also brought a maid from the British Mansion, and the maid gave a blessing: "Mrs. Lin is well! Thank you Mrs. Lin for caring about our girl, Mama Ling said that our girl and Miss Yin San are listening to Mr. tell an allusion, and it is inconvenient to come out to meet guests." And before leaving Beijing, our old lady explained that the girl is young and not suitable for a solo visit, so please forgive Mrs. Lin!"
"Of course," Mrs. Lin sneered, "I owe it to me, I don't know that Miss Pan is in class, and I ask you to say hello to Mama Ling on my behalf, as long as Miss Pan adapts to life here, Xianggong and I will rest assured." As he spoke, he gave Cui's mother a look on the side, who quickly smiled and stuffed a delicate red purse into the maid's hand.
The maid walked out of the door for a while, and then Lin Rong pouted and said: "Miss Pan Wu is easy-going, the husband arranged for her by the queen mother is naturally extraordinary, and she can even deign to listen to Mr. Chen's lecture with Xuan'er's sister?"
Zhiruo sighed secretly, after all, she was a little tender, so if she didn't go well, she would be messed up, and if she married into the Yu family, she wouldn't be played to death by her sister-in-law?
"Exactly," Zhiruo echoed casually, "The two little girls have only known each other for a few days, and they can't wait to stick together every day, they are in a good mood, and they are happy to do anything, but Mr. Chen is indeed a good gentleman, and Mama Ling is also full of praise." β
Lin Rong choked, suddenly thought of something, and secretly resented, this Yin Zhiruo became more and more unpleasant, sharp teeth, and what he said was uncomfortable, but he couldn't find anything wrong.
Mrs. Lin's eyes became more and more complicated, was she ignoring something? She underestimated Yin Zhiruo before.
Also, He Li, risked back to Beijing to pick up his younger siblings, set up a female household, the soldier's home, dim sum, and Mama You, the old man in the middle of the mountain, and even the relationship with their prefect's mansion...... This girl who doesn't look like a mountain dew is really not simple! she quietly made all aspects of it easy, although she didn't think that Yin Zhiruo was as naΓ―ve and ignorant as rumored, but it was still too ...... Underestimate her. Maybe this child was too gentle and considerate in front of her, and generous, whether it was money or property, or ...... On the big side, such as the exploits of the mountain bandits in the fierce cow village, and the great goodness of discovering the scourge of the butterfly and the seven spices.
Mrs. Lin has always known that Governor Lin's care for Yin Zhiruo and Meizhuang has brought more benefits and unprecedented smoothness, it can be said that the protection they gave Yin Zhiruo and the benefits that Yin Zhiruo brought to them are not equal at all, not that they pay more, but what they get is far greater than what they pay. That day, Governor Lin came back from Meizhuang, scolded her fiercely, and cautiously warned her not to do too much, Yin Zhiruo is not stupid, the people around her are more shrewd, and there is a strong help in Beijing, the army, and the border pass.
It's just that she is still careless after all, and while she looks down on Yin Zhiruo, she doesn't know if the girl in front of her, who always looks gentle and generous, is secretly mocking her? (To be continued......)
