Looking at each other, the girl's face was red, frightened, ashamed and afraid, the maid outside heard the sound, hurriedly came in to check what was going on, and suddenly saw Ling Jingshen, and was also taken aback.

Ling Jingshen got up and took a few steps back, and hurriedly turned around.

The girl saw that he had his back to her, and slowly calmed down, and said, "Why is Ling Gongzi here?" I thought it was ......" Speaking of this, she couldn't help but blush a little, and her regret was too abrupt.

Ling Jingshen listened to her before he said, "Xiao Tang has just come back, and he has gone to see his wife, so he must be back later." ”

The girl saw that he had understood what he meant, but she coughed, shy herself, and said, "I was talking with Sister Mingli just now, and I heard that Brother Yi was back, so I stopped by to take a look...... Since I'm not here, I'll come back later. ”

With a nod, he turned and walked out.

The girl took the maid and went out of the study, and saw Xiao Tang coming slowly, and saw her twice, Xiao Tang saw that she had a look of shame on her face, so she looked into the room again, and said, "What's wrong?"

The girl snorted, glanced at him, and said, "You didn't say a word when you came back, and you left someone in the study quietly, do you want to scare me to death?"

Xiao Tang looked at her expression, guessed what was happening, laughed, and said, "This is also what you deserve, don't you play with Mingli well, what are you doing here?" ”

The girl stomped her feet and said, "You said me! I heard that you were out with your father, and you were even more worried because you were almost injured because you were protecting your father...... He just ran to see how you were, and if you didn't appreciate it, why did you slap me in the face?

It turned out that this girl was Lin Shenzhou's only daughter, named Lin **, Lin Shenzhou died early because of his wife, leaving only this one girl, she was born well, smart and clever, so she was very pampered since she was a child, and she was inevitably a little pampered.

Lin Shenzhou once had a very close relationship with the old marquis Tang, and the two families had contacts with each other, Lin ** and Xiao Tang have also known each other since childhood, and there are often contacts between the two mansions.

Xiao Tang saw that she was annoyed, so he smiled and said: "I know you have good intentions, but I also have good intentions, right? You should also change your unrestrained temperament, after all, you are all older than when you were a child, you must avoid taboos when you should avoid taboos, don't act so rashly and recklessly...... Did you recklessly bump into the depth of field in the house?"

When Lin ** heard him, his face was red and white for a while, and he wanted to fight back and stopped, but he was not convinced.

Xiao Tang smiled slightly and said again: "This time it's depth of field, it's not a big deal, you can recognize it horizontally and vertically, what if it's an irrelevant man?"

Lin ** said hatefully: "What about irrelevant men? I didn't mean to bump into him here! You know that I don't like to listen to those pedantic talks, but you always bother me with every now and then! Even though I am only two years older than me, I am like my father and chattering about old fashion, if I want to listen to your words of control, why should I come here? Just listen to my father's lessons at home!"

Xiao Tang still smiled and said, "Your father is my mentor, I am naturally like him, I will praise me as a person, thank you very much." ”

Lin ** was angry, and simply said: "That's it, I'll just go, I know that you are annoying me, and you are changing the way to drive me!"

Xiao Tang coughed and said, "Look how cold it is here, you are dressed plainly, Mingli is still waiting for you to go back, let's go." ”

Lin ** saw that he didn't stop himself, so he glared at him, but Xiao Tang said softly: "Sister walk slowly, slip on the snow, pay attention to your feet." ”

Lin ** hated, shook the handkerchief, and went angrily, and the maid saluted Xiao Tang and hurriedly followed.

Xiao Tang stood in place, looking at it with a smile in his eyes, seeing that Lin ** was walking very fast, at the corner under the corridor, there was some snow blown in by the wind, turning a puddle of water, Lin ** did not pay attention, stepped on it, staggered, and hurriedly held on to the pillar before standing still.

Xiao Tang wanted to remind him that it was too late, and when he saw this, he laughed softly again, Lin ** was weak-hearted, and when he looked up and saw him standing at the door of the study, he was ashamed and angry, and almost crushed the handkerchief in his hand, and went away hatefully.

Xiao Tang was laughing, and someone behind him said, "Why are you so bad-hearted? In case Miss Lin breaks down here, I'm afraid that Lord Lin won't give up with you." ”

Xiao Tang looked back at Ling Jingshen and said, "You pity the fragrance and cherish the jade so much, why don't you go and help her?"

Ling Jingshen pursed his lips with a useless expression, Xiao Tang looked up at the sky and said, "If this snow doesn't stop, you just stay here for the night tonight." ”

Ling Jingshen said: "I won't tell you, I also have this intention, your study is excellent, it's very warm, I am reluctant to leave......" The two glanced at each other and laughed.

It snowed heavily in Beijing, but the snow in Taizhou stopped after a while, probably because the climate was warmer than the capital, and in the afternoon, the snow turned into a drizzle.

The autumn rain is like adding new sorrow, the little guys are holding umbrellas, and they send Ying Pei, Ying Huaizhen, Li Huo and the three back to the county office, and as soon as they entered the door, the little maid Shou'er hurriedly greeted him and said: "Brother is back, the third master is looking for you." ”

Ying Pei said goodbye to Ying Huaizhen, rushed to Ying Zhuyun's room, turned the corner, and suddenly stopped his steps, it turned out that Ying Lanfeng was walking in front of him.

Although it is father and son, it seems that there is some meaning of meeting on a narrow road at this moment, Ying Pei is a little nervous for no reason, it is not to advance, it is not to retreat, and he is hesitating, Ying Lanfeng has already arrived, looked him up and down, and asked, "Where are you going?"

Ying Pei hurriedly said: "I went to Zhang's Mansion with my sister and Li Huo, and I just came back." ”

Ying Lanfeng nodded slightly when he heard this, and did not answer again, and was about to leave, Ying Pei saw him passing by, his heart twitched, and he suddenly shouted: "Father!"

Ying Lanfeng stopped when he heard the sound, turned his head to look at him, and asked lightly, "What's the matter, something?"

Ying Pei's throat stalked several times, and finally took a deep breath, lowered his hand and bowed his head and said: "Father, what I did before was a big mistake, I already know it now, but after all, what I did is what I did, I can't deny it, I can't deny it, my father beat me and scolded me, I am willing to accept it, and I will definitely treat my sister well in the future, and I will never treat her badly again......

Ying Pei said this in one breath, and said in a trembling voice: "Father can not believe it, but I must tell you these words." ”

Ying Lanfeng was stunned, looked at Ying Pei thoughtfully, and did not say anything for a while.

After Ying Pei finished speaking, he saluted again, and then turned around and hurried away.

That night, Ying Pei slept the most restful sleep in his life.

At the same time, after Li Xianshu watched Ying Huaizhen fall asleep, she returned to her room and saw Ying Lanfeng leaning on the edge of the bed, holding a book in her hand, as if she was looking at the ground.

Li Xianshu glanced at him, then took off his coat, and said: "The Zhang family is in trouble, have you heard?

Ying Lanfeng hung down the book and said, "What is he looking for me? ”

Li Xianshu sneered and said: "If he really wants to find it, he doesn't have to fool around outside, do you think he is too much of a bastard, and his mother complained to me last time...... There are a few people in the family who don't stop, and they are still causing trouble outside, and now it's even more outrageous! Who doesn't snicker when they know about this, and it's thanks to that grandma's kindness that they have endured it until now. ”

Ying Lanfeng was a little absent-minded and didn't speak. Li Xianshu frowned, stretched out her hand to hit him, and said, "Talking to you, what are you doing with your eyes shaking, are you also doing something bad behind my back?"

When Ying Lanfeng heard this, he was aggrieved: "I've been busy with the affairs of the county government all day long, where is the time to do bad things?"

Li Xianshu crossed her arms and smiled, and said: "People say: Those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black." Don't get caught up in that stink!

Ying Lanfeng snorted: "The work in the day is not enough, you are busy, you still have the mind to think about these things." As he spoke, he sighed and rolled over.

Li Xianshu looked at him, thought of the Zhang family, couldn't help but smile, stepped forward and gently pinched Ying Lanfeng from behind, and said, "What are you doing......?" And with your back to me?"

Ying Lanfeng smiled "sneering" and turned over slowly, but his face was full of sorrow.

Li Xianshu's eyes widened, and she looked at it and said, "What the hell is wrong?

Looking at each other, Ying Lanfeng hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "Lady, I do have something to discuss with you." ”

In the end, it was husband and wife, Li Xianshu thought about it for a while, guessed a few points, but her face was silent, and she only said: "What's the matter, you say come and listen." ”

Sure enough, Ying Lanfeng said hesitantly: "I'll look at ...... That muddy boy seems to have really changed, and I saw that he played very well with Zhen'er before, so I thought...... Can you just leave him here with us?"

Li Xianshu stood up straight suddenly, and said, "What are you talking about? I can't faint in the middle of the night? Don't heal the scar and forget the pain, who knows if he is pretending to be again? You stay by his side and wait for the opportunity to hurt Ah Zhen again? If you really give him a hand, it will be too late!"

Ying Lanfeng hurriedly said: "This time it really doesn't look like it's pretending, he's still admitting his mistake with me today, if it's still pretending, then it's really, really not a person...... Ahem, anyway, I just discussed with you, and it was decided if not, don't worry, if you don't want to, I'll just tell him to go. ”

Li Xianshu heard this, but she was rarely not annoyed, but quietly looked at Ying Lanfeng for a while, and said for a moment: "Do you still feel sorry that I didn't give you a boy?"

Ying Lanfeng didn't expect her to say this, so she sat up immediately: "What kind of words are these, am I still not satisfied if I have a real child? It's better than 10,000 boys! Why do you talk about this again? If I have this heart, I will die immediately......

Before a "death" could be said, Lee Hyun-sook was gagged.

Li Xianshu stared at Ying Lanfeng for a while, and said, "You swear by what you are in a hurry, and I just said casually, do you know what your daughter said to me last time you went out to find Ying Pei?"

Ying Lanfeng took her hand and moved away, and asked suspiciously, "What did Zhen'er say to you?"

Li Xianshu sighed and said, "Zhen'er said to me: If something happens to Ying Pei here, there may not always be a thorn in your heart in the future......"

When Ying Lanfeng heard this, he was suddenly startled, opened his mouth, and did not speak.

Li Xianshu's heart darkened, and said: "I also know that I shouldn't think about anything else, but after all, it's your son, if you really want to keep him, then it's up to you, but there is one ......."

Ying Lanfeng waited, Li Xianshu snorted, gritted his teeth and said: "I won't be used to him, if he is disobedient, I will still be the boss shaving his ears and beating him hard, if he dares to treat Zhen'er in the slightest, then I will have a hundred ways to treat him to death! Don't talk to me at that time! Who let you keep him!"

Ying Lanfeng also understood that Li Xianshu was very "knife-mouthed tofu heart", since she said so, she agreed to keep Ying Pei, and immediately laughed, Li Xianshu saw him smiling, so she sighed again and said, "Forget it...... Who told me not to give you a son......"

Li Xianshu said, then went to bed, and slowly lay down, Ying Lanfeng looked at her for a while, and then she also fell down.

The room was quiet, and after a moment, Ying Lanfeng suddenly said: "Zhen'er is actually right, if Ying Pei really has an accident here, I will indeed feel uneasy, but not because he is my 'son', just because he is my 'child'." ”

Li Xianshu turned her back to him, but did not close her eyes, smiled slightly for a while, and said, "Are you fainting again?"

The next day, Ying Lanfeng called Ying Pei to come and said to Ying Pei: "If you don't want to go back to Nafu, just take the opportunity to stay this time, your mother has agreed, and you don't have to worry about the rest, just look at what you want." ”

Ying Pei was a little stunned, as if he couldn't believe it. Ying Lanfeng said again: "I know that your third uncle told you yesterday that you will leave for Beijing in the near future, so I will ask you today: Do you want to go or do you want to stay?"

Ying Pei looked up at Ying Lanfeng, and after a while, he replied, "Father, I'...... I'm still going back. ”

Ying Lanfeng didn't expect Ying Pei to answer like this, and he suspected that he had heard it wrong, so he asked, "What did you say?"
