Chapter 1756: Iron Mask Selfless
Chen Yin's back stiffened, and after a long time, he slowly turned around and looked at Lin Wan with an incredible gaze.
Lin Wan looked at Chen Yin expressionlessly, but his heart involuntarily twitched. Because, she didn't know if Chen Yin would be angered by her, and if he would suddenly kill her. For Chen Yin, it is easier to beat her to death with one palm than to crush an ant to death.
Chen Yin's mood was very low, although Lin Wan's words stung him, but they did not arouse his anger, but inspired him to feel deeper pain and helplessness. He took a deep breath and pondered for a long time before he slowly spoke: "Miss Zhou, why do you say this? Could it be that Manting said something to you?"
Lin Wan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, forcibly suppressed the panic in her heart, and pretended to be calm: "The second son is too worried, the second cousin has not said anything to me, let alone any expectations for the second son." Although the second cousin understands the second son's heart for her, she also knows the second son's temperament very well. She knows that you will never do anything to betray the Chen family for her, let alone disobey the orders of the eldest prince. So, she never wanted to embarrass you, and she didn't even ask anything of you. ”
Chen Yin's brows became tighter and tighter, the grief and indignation in his eyes became more and more serious, his clenched fists tightened, and slowly released, looking at Lu Manting on the bed with a dejected expression, deep remorse rose in his heart, and he muttered in his mouth: "You are right, my eldest brother and I have been taken by our ancestors since we were children and raised by ourselves. The old ancestor was very strict with us, and if we did not meet his requirements, we would be punished in a way unimaginable to outsiders, and no one dared to challenge the authority of the old ancestor. Since I was three years old, I have been learning various martial arts techniques from my ancestors, and I have worked very hard, but I can never compare to my eldest brother. ”
Lin Wan looked at Chen Yin quietly and listened to him tell him about the sorrow of being a "second son".
Chen Yin was immersed in his deep sadness, gritted his teeth, and continued: "Although the eldest brother has become the head of the new generation, he also has to listen to the ancestors for everything. At the beginning, when the emperor gave marriage to the third prince and the eldest cousin, the eldest brother knelt outside the door of the ancestor for three days and three nights. The old ancestor not only did not agree to the eldest brother's request, but also used family law to beat the eldest brother with thirty iron rods, almost killing him. Later, the second cousin went to Nanyue to make peace, which was also decided by the ancestors, and I wanted to ask the ancestors for mercy, but was stopped by the eldest brother. I know that the eldest brother is also for my good, and he doesn't want me to suffer the thirty iron rods as well. The person who enforces the family law is the third uncle, and the third uncle is the most iron-faced and selfless, and those thirty iron rods can kill me. ”
Lin Wan frowned slightly, and asked with some doubts: "The eldest son and the second son have reached the age of starting a family, but why haven't they married yet? Could it be that they are just waiting for Miss Big Cousin and Miss Second Cousin?"
Chen Yin smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said, "It is not an easy thing to become the daughter-in-law of our Chen family in Haining, especially my future sister-in-law, who must be strictly selected by the ancestors. It's not good to be weak like the eldest cousin, not to have a negative personality like the second cousin, the third cousin's bloodline is not pure enough, and the fourth cousin has a cowardly personality, so they can't be the housemother of our Chen family, and they are not qualified to inherit the lineage of our Chen family. Therefore, although the ancestor has promised that if the second cousin can get through this difficulty, he will allow us to be together, but he will not allow me to marry the second cousin as his wife. ”
Lin Wan smiled coldly and said mockingly: "Your Chen family marrying a daughter-in-law is even stricter than the emperor's requirements for choosing a daughter-in-law. ”
Chen Yin also smiled self-deprecatingly and said: "That's right, so, my father has not been able to marry the person he likes, and in the past ten years, my father and mother have lived in different courtyards, and they don't even interact with each other." Although my mother gave birth to me and my eldest brother, she was not close to us brothers. My father was the youngest great-grandson of my ancestor, and he was indifferent by nature, and he never went out of the valley, nor did he care about any affairs in the valley, and he did not even dare to say a word in front of his ancestors. When I was a child, I looked down on my father, but when I grew up, I gradually understood that as long as there were ancestors, no one dared to say a word. ”
Lin Wan nodded slightly, and suddenly said, "I see." Presumably, if it weren't for the thousand-year-old Gu worm getting weaker and weaker, your old ancestor wouldn't have cultivated your two brothers carefully; if it weren't for the thousand-year-old Gu worm dying, your ancestor's body would be getting weaker and weaker, I'm afraid that you wouldn't let your eldest brother take charge of the valley. ”
Chen Yin smiled bitterly, glanced at Lin Wan appreciatively, and nodded, "Miss Zhou is really smart. However, although the affairs in the valley are ostensibly managed by the eldest brother, in fact, any decision made by the eldest brother must be approved by the ancestors, and the real power is still in the hands of the ancestors. ”
Lin Wan frowned and said thoughtfully: "Of course, if Miss Fourth Cousin succeeds in giving birth to the Little Gu King, your ancestor's life can continue again, how can he completely hand over the power in his hands to you two brothers?"
When Chen Yin heard this, his eyes suddenly narrowed, and he asked in a deep voice: "How do you know this? It is impossible for the two cousins to tell you such an important matter, who are you, and what is the purpose of coming here?"
Lin Wan smiled helplessly and said, "I'm just a doctor, and I didn't come here as I wanted." I have no purpose but to save my patients. ”
Chen Yin was stunned, looked at Lin Wan in disbelief, and asked anxiously, "Do you really have a way to save Manting?"
Lin Wan nodded, and said, "I have a way, I can give it a try, if it really succeeds, I can save the lives of Miss Second and Miss Fourth." Otherwise, the life-sustaining pill I gave to Miss Second Cousin would only protect her until noon tomorrow at most. It's just that I don't know if Chen Ergongzi is willing to help us. ”
Chen Yin frowned and asked in a low voice, "What do you want to do?" Can you really save the lives of the second cousin and the fourth cousin?"
Lin Wan shook his head and said, "I'm not absolutely sure, but I can give it a try." However, if I do what I do, I will have to sacrifice that precious little Gu King. ”
When Chen Yin heard this, his eyes immediately widened, and he looked at Lin Wan in a daze, with fear and entanglement in his eyes that could not be concealed. He turned his head to look at Lu Manting on the bed, but found that Lu Manting had woken up at some point, looking at him indifferently, with a faint disdain.
Lu Manting said weakly and slowly: "Second cousin, you don't have to be so embarrassed, I have never done anything for you, and you don't have to take risks for me." ”
