Chapter 42: Going to Beijing
Autumn in the north is dry and clear, and the sky is blue and blue, and people's hearts are open to the eye
Lilac was bored in the carriage, and looked at Lin Shuo riding a tall horse through the window, and suddenly felt envious, she really wanted to go out for a horseback ride.
Lin Long sat for a while, and felt bored, except for the loess outside the farmland, there was really nothing to see. Moreover, this ancient official road, no matter how well it is repaired, cannot be compared with the modern asphalt road, stumbling.
Not to mention the road, the carriage is also a headache. The wheels were so high, the chassis was not stable at all, and it was bumpy, and even if she added shock absorbers to the carriage, it would not be of great use.
Fortunately, there are several layers of down and futon in the car, and the top is a bamboo mat, and the carriage is leisurely, so it is good to lie down and sleep.
Lilac added a little water under Lin Long's special fan base and shook the handle. The water evaporates into water vapor in an instant after the rotation of countless gears, and then pounces out along the three fans above, plus the cool breeze brought by the rapid rotation of the fans.
The originally stuffy carriage was instantly filled with cool air.
Lilac couldn't help but close her eyes comfortably, it was so refreshing.
"Lady, do you need something?" It's been out for a long time, and Lilac is worried that Lin Long will be hungry, so she takes out the snack box from the carriage drawer.
This box is Lin Long's specialty, vacuum fresh.
Lin Long shook his head, looking like he didn't have much appetite, "You can use it yourself, I'm not hungry." โ
Lilac put the food box on the table, looking at Lin Long a little worried, after coming out of Qi County for a long time, the lady's love has not been very good.
She can understand the mood of the mother, after all, she is far away from her parents and goes to a strange place. But the lady can't go on like this, she doesn't speak, she doesn't eat or drink, and her body is not broken.
"Lady." Lilac persuaded softly, "At least drink saliva, this weather is too dry." โ
Lin Long nodded, and just as he was about to get up, Lin Dalang's voice came from outside: "Third sister, the convoy will stop and rest, and let Mama Lu take you around for a while, and move your muscles and bones." โ
Lin Long responded warmly: "There is elder brother Lao to tell you." โ
The girl's voice is elegant and moving, like the clearest spring water in the stream, and she only feels relaxed and happy in Lin Dalang's ears.
The third sister is not as childish as her mother and aunt say, and she can't be on the stage, but she is very sensible and polite, Lin Dalang thought secretly.
Hearing Lin Dalang mention Mama Lu, Lilac couldn't help but chuckle, her eyes mocking: "Mama Lu may not be able to get up?" โ
During the three days of staying in the Lin Mansion, Mama Lu couldn't wake up almost every day, sleeping during the day and sleeping at night.
The whole person is like a wandering spirit, and I don't know what's going on.
The convoy stopped, and Mama Lu, who was in the carriage behind, was woken up by the little girl.
She had just closed her eyes and slept for a while, when she was awakened, her heart was on fire, and she immediately gave the little girl a lesson.
The little girl is also very aggrieved, obviously it was instructed by the eldest young monarch, what kind of anger did Mama have with her.
Mama Lu got out of the carriage lightly, walked to Lin Long's carriage in a daze, her eyes fluttered, and she blinked her eyes several times before she froze.
"Three ladies." As soon as he opened his mouth, his voice was so dry that he couldn't see it.
Lilac opened the car door and jumped out of the carriage lightly, and was startled when she saw Mama Lu.
Who is this female ghost with a pale face, red eyes, and messy hair in front of you?
"Mama Lu?" Lilac didn't dare to admit it.
The rest is not good for several days, Mama Lu is now having a headache for a while, and the whole person can't lift her spirits, where do you still remember the old lady's instructions and cage Sanniang in the palm of her hand.
It's good that she can go back alive now!
Thinking of the grievances, Mama Lu almost burst into tears, and forced herself to care about Lin Long: "How is the third lady, how is the bumpy road, are you adaptable?" โ
"Mama rest assured." Lilac smiled, "My lady is in good health, and she squinted in the morning." โ
Squinting?
Mama Lu was deeply jealous, the road was so bumpy that she almost vomited the overnight meal, the carriage was also stuffy, there was no wind at all, and when she closed her eyes and lay down for a while, she was sweating all over her head, and the whole person was so uncomfortable that she wanted to die immediately.
While speaking, Lin Long jumped out of the carriage wearing a hood, and was also shocked when he saw Mama Lu.
She just wanted her to sleep badly at night, and she didn't have the energy to find trouble, but she didn't want her life.
"Mama Lu." Lin Long spoke, "I have some soothing medicinal herbs here, let the little girl boil up in a while, after you take it, take a nap in the afternoon, and the spirit will be restored." โ
Hearing that Lin Long asked her to take the medicine, Mama Lu was in a state of flux, and instantly became vigilant, and the sensitivity of the house fight exploded, and her head was running at high speed in an instant, and she actually came up with several bad guesses.
"There is a lady who is worried, the old slave is strong and can hold on, and the lunch break is short, so don't bother."
Seeing that Mama Lu refused, Lin Long didn't force it, but took Lilac Lin Shuo and others to move their legs around the convoy.
The lunch break was not long, the main thing was to let the horses rest their feet, eat something, and the guards also went to solve personal problems.
Half an hour later, the convoy was moving slowly again.
The escort of the leader was an experienced man, who knew the road well, and traveled during the day and stopped in the nearby towns at night.
Along the way, except for being a little bored, Lin Long basically didn't suffer much.
During the day, I would lie down in the carriage and take a nap, or look at the scenery along the way, and occasionally the interest came, and I called a few little girls to play leaf cards together.
At noon, there are also fresh dim sum dishes, and every time the cloves set off, they must be fully prepared, and the fresh-keeping box is filled, and the dishes are all light and flavorful.
When he stayed at the hotel at night, Lin Long went to the space to practice.
In her previous life, her fist and foot skills were also good, but her internal skills were not successful. At that time, she was anxious for quick success, and she couldn't calm down to study internal skills.
Internal strength is not something that can be learned well by being smart, but also requires tenacity and clarity of mind.
Lin Long didn't have time to study in his previous life, but he picked it up in this life.
This is also no way, she has too much free time, unlike in her previous life, she learns everything and occupies her time to the fullest.
In this life, Lin Long is quite idle.
After a lot of time, she didn't want to think about it, and her heart was simple, so she learned her internal skills.
Staying in the space until more than ten o'clock at night, Lin Long went out of the space to go back to the room to sleep, and in the morning the convoy left early, so she went to the carriage to make up for sleep.
It's cool in the morning and evening in autumn, so you don't have to worry about sweating profusely after a while.
Lin Long is living a good life here, but Mama Lu is in dire straits.
She seemed to have some auditory hallucinations, and she could hear the creaking movement after sleeping for a while at night, which disturbed her all night and always woke up and could not sleep well. During the day, I couldn't sleep in the carriage, the sound of horses' hooves, and the stuffiness in the car, tortured Mama Lu to ten years old.
She didn't sleep well, her spirits were not good, and her appetite was not good. At noon, she ate dry and hard cakes, and almost knocked out her teeth.
The water in the bladder is also warm, so it's better not to drink it.
After walking like this for more than ten days, Mama Lu didn't pour out her efforts to pinch Lin Long, and she couldn't sit still when she saw that she was about to arrive in Beijing.
took advantage of the rest to go over to find Lin Long.
As soon as I arrived at the carriage, I saw the pretty girl Lilac jumping out of the carriage and pointing at her: "Shh, Mama light, the lady is asleep." โ
Mama Lu was stunned, "Didn't you sleep in the morning?" In the morning, she came over, and Lin Long was sleeping at that time.
"I woke up at that time, ate, played the leaf card for a while, and the lady fell asleep again, and she didn't wake up yet." Lilac Road.
Hearing this, Mama Lu didn't know what to say, she couldn't sleep day and night on her side, and the third lady was just the opposite.
It's like a pig and can sleep!
Mama Lu was envious, jealous and hateful, and she couldn't wait to step forward and give Lin Long's sense to herself.
If the mind is unbalanced, people are prone to distortion.
Mama Lu was a little distorted, she wanted to wake up Lin Long and prevent her from continuing to sleep.
Thinking of this, he made a worried expression on his face: "Why did you sleep for so long, is it sick?" As he spoke, while Lilac was not paying attention, he lifted his feet and stepped into the carriage and began to climb up.
"Mama." Lilac exclaimed.
Lin Shuo was nibbling on cakes on the other side of the carriage at this time, she could eat the amount of five or six strong men in one meal, and the cloves couldn't prepare her food, so Lin Shuo had always eaten cakes with everyone.
Eating deliciously, he suddenly heard Lilac exclaim, Lin Shuo swooped over and found Lilac staring at the old lady beside the carriage in horror.
didn't think about it at all, raised his big palm, picked up the old lady and threw it on the ground, and said hatefully: "Wicked people, dare to bully the lady!" โ
There was too much movement here, and after a while, Lin Dalang and others surrounded it.
He glanced at Mama Lu, who was lying on her back on the ground with her feet facing the sky, and the turtle seemed to be unable to turn over, he was stunned at first, and then looked at Lin Shuo suspiciously: "What's the matter?" โ
Lilac stepped forward and took the lead to explain: "The lady is taking a nap, Mama Lu suddenly climbed into the carriage somehow, Lin Shuo was afraid of disturbing the lady, so he ripped Mama off." โ
Speaking of this, Ding Xiang glanced at Lin Shuo, "You also know that Lin Shuo has great strength and is reckless, and his subordinates are neither light nor heavy. โ
Lin Dalang is a nerd, he doesn't understand the twists and turns of the inner house, after listening to Lilac's explanation, he also felt that it was Mama Lu who was wrong, and while telling the little girl to help her up, he was dissatisfied with the reprimand:
"Mama is an old man in the house, how can you be so light and heavy, you suddenly go up, what if you startle the third sister?"
Mama Lu was reprimanded by Lin Dalang in front of the Lin family's subordinate guards, only to feel that her old face was lost, and she still remembered that she had back pain.
Her face was purple and swollen, and she was hurriedly helped away by the little girl.
Lin Long just took a nap, and when he woke up, he found that Mama Lu had been knocked out.
Her luck in this life is really surprisingly good, originally she thought that Mama Lu had been silent for so long, and there would definitely be a moth near the Jingshi, but she didn't expect that she would die before she was born.
It's too brittle, too.
Lin Long and Ding Xiang sighed that they were really useless heroes.
Lilac covered her mouth and chuckled, "According to the maid, the lady is cheap and good." โ
In the evening, the convoy stopped in Jingxian County to rest and enter the store, and Lin Long took Lin Shuo to visit Mama Lu.
Mama Lu fell quite hard and couldn't stand up so far, so she just waited to return to her home and then see a doctor.
Seeing Lin Long coming over with Lin Shuo, somehow, Mama Lu was instinctively scared in her heart, thinking of Lin Shuo's fan-like palm, her waist suddenly hurt even more.
Lin Long first asked Lin Shuo to apologize to Mama Lu, and then said: "I like to read medical books since I was a child, and I am quite proficient in medical skills. โ
Mama Lu refused: "The rough body of the old slave, how dare you bother the lady, this little pain, endure it and pass." โ
"How's that going to work?" Ignoring her resistance, Lin Long raised his hand and touched Mama Lu's waist, and found that the bones were misplaced.
Mama Lu was pressed by Lin Long in pain, she didn't dare to show it on her face, but she secretly gritted her teeth in her heart, and said in her heart that the two masters and servants were really sweet-faced and bitter, one broke her waist, and the other wanted to mess up.
also blamed her for being careless, she actually looked away, and was harmed like this by two little girls.
After pressing a few times, Lin Long knew what was wrong, and the two hands moved together to reset the bones with force.
The movement of the bones would have hurt, and Mama Lu still lived the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, worried that Lin Long would harm her, and the pain seemed to be ten, and she suddenly screamed like a pig.
Lin Dalang was taking Lang Zhong to the door, and when he heard the screams inside, he raised his foot and kicked the door open.
As soon as the door opened, I saw Lin Long making trouble on Mama Lu's waist, and Mama Lu's face was pale and cold sweat flowed, and she shouted: "Stop!" โ
He jumped to the side of the bed in a few steps, wanting to pull Lin Long away, not wanting to be blocked in front of Lin Shuo like a hill.
Lin Dalang's face turned pale: "Get out of the way." โ
Lin Shuo didn't move.
Lin Dalang looked at Lin Long and gritted his teeth: "I didn't know that the third sister was so ruthless, although Mama Lu disturbed her sister at noon, she didn't mean to, and she was injured, why should my sister be aggressive and want to kill Mama's life." Even if you are the future concubine, you can't be unreasonable and hurt people's lives casually. โ
The more he talked, the more angry he became, and finally his tone threatened: "Presumably, the princess knows that her sister is so ruthless, and she will regret asking for this family business." โ
Lin Long was incredible, he couldn't understand Lin Dalang's brain circuit, which eye did he see that she was going to hurt Mama Lu's life.
Resetting Mama Lu's misplaced bones, Lin Long withdrew his hand and turned to Lin Dalang, who was blushing and thick-necked, with a slightly puzzled expression: "What is the eldest brother talking about?" Little sister can't understand. โ
Seeing Lin Long's innocent appearance, Lin Dalang was so angry that his hands trembled. At noon, Mama Lu called him over, saying that the third lady had a bad mind, and she couldn't sleep or eat well these days, I'm afraid it was the third lady's doing.
At that time, he still didn't believe it, and felt that Mama Lu had not rested well these days, and she had mental problems and was talking nonsense.
Now that I think about it, Mama is right, this girl is really a femme fatale.
Lin Dalang was already furious, and immediately shouted: "You still don't admit it, what were you doing just now?" A little lady is so vicious, I really look away. When I go back, I will definitely tell my grandmother about this, and I will refuse โกโก this family in the name of resisting the decree. โ
He panted: "You are such a vicious person, how can you be worthy of the son of the world." โ
After listening to Lin Dalang's words, Lin Long didn't want to explain anymore, people who are extreme and narrow-minded will say that gold is shit. She also felt that he was similar to his eldest brother Lin Ye, where did he have the tolerant heart of his eldest brother.
She nodded, and her voice cooled: "Okay, I hope the eldest brother remembers today's words." โ
After speaking, Lin Long took Lin Shuo and left with his sleeves.
As soon as he walked out of the door, Mama Lu's surprised voice came from inside: "Hey, why doesn't it hurt?" โ
Then came Lin Dalang's voice: "Sir, please come over and show Mama." โ
This Lang Zhong was invited from the county, and he came to see the disease, but he didn't want to enter the door, but he watched a good show.
The beautiful lady's technique, he has seen it, it is clearly a bone compound technique, why did the gentleman next to him who looked polite and polite mistakenly thought that it was harmful.
It's really incomprehensible, even a rough person like him knows that such things as harming and hurting people have to be done behind people's backs, how can anyone dare to make a big show.
Alas, the minds of these noble men are really incomprehensible.
Lang Zhong stepped forward and touched Mama Lu's waist a few times, nodded, and said to Lin Dalang, who was looking anxious next to him: "Don't worry, Lang Jun, this Mama's waist is fine." โ
"It's okay, how can it be okay?" Lin Dalang was shocked, "Didn't Sanniang ...... hard just now"
Lang Zhong frowned and interrupted: "That's the little lady resetting the bones for Mama, Lang Jun misunderstood." โ
"Misunderstanding?" Lin Dalang's face turned pale.
Thinking of his previous words, as well as the coldness and ridicule in Lin Long's eyes when he left, his face suddenly became hot, and he couldn't wait to get into the cracks in the ground.
Even Lang Zhong didn't dare to look at it.
He lowered his head and said nothing for a while.
Mama Lu was also embarrassed, thinking that it was because she always said bad things about the third lady in front of the eldest young gentleman, and the eldest young gentleman would misunderstand the third lady.
The atmosphere in the room was cold and suffocating, as if it was shrouded in a silent and embarrassing net, and it was so suffocating that people's cheeks were red and their breathing was difficult.
โโ
After Lin Long returned to the room, Lilac's dinner was also ready, and when he went out, he didn't pay attention to morning food and morning food. Eat something good at the inn in the morning and evening, and eat dry food at noon.
The cloves are excellent, a crispy fish, crispy and delicious.
Lin Long tasted it and was full of praise: "Yes, did the lobby brother send it over?" โ
The cloves for dinner are all in duplicate, one on Lin Long's side and one on Lin Dalang's side.
"Don't worry, the lady has sent it over." Lilac nodded.
When Lin Shuo heard this, he raised his head and was unhappy: "The lady still cares what he does, he misunderstands you like that." โ
Lilac didn't know the inside story, and when she heard the words, she looked at Lin Shuo curiously.
Lin Shuo saw that the lady did not object, so he said what happened just now, said that he hated, and almost slapped the table.
Ding Xiang frowned secretly when she heard this, she thought more than Lin Shuo, and looked at Lin Long worriedly when she heard this: "Lady, even the eldest young gentleman thinks of you like this, the old lady may not have a good impression of you." โ
In this way, Lin Long's situation in the Lin family is difficult.
"It's okay." Lin Long lowered his head and concentrated on picking up the fish bones, not taking Lilac's words to heart at all, "The soldiers will block, and the water will cover it." โ
Lilac nodded, her expression was still not very good, she remembered that Lin Dalang had misunderstood Lin Long's practice of Mama Lu, and she felt so uncomfortable that she couldn't help it.
What kind of black-hearted person would do this to a wounded old woman?
Could it be that in Lin Dalang's eyes, the lady is so unbearable!
Thinking of this, Lilac didn't want to make the crispy fish cheap Lin Dalang, puffed out her mouth, and said to Lin Long: "The maid also made some snacks, and this is not for the eldest young gentleman." โ
"Giving." Lin Long looked up from the fish and smiled a little evilly, "You still have to apologize to him for me." โ
"Why is that?" Lilac and Lin Shuo spoke in unison.
Lin Long put down his chopsticks, picked up the hot soup with both hands, and warmed his warm and slightly cool fingertips: "Angry, presumably the lobby brother must have died of shame when he saw you." โ
Lilac suddenly realized, couldn't hold back her laughter, and said angrily: "The lady is so bad." โ
In the evening, Lin Dalang returned to the room and found the snacks sent by Lilac, and saw that Lilac sincerely apologized for Lin Long, explaining that she was not good and did not tell the eldest brother earlier, she was recovering Mama Lu, which made the eldest brother misunderstand.
For a while, Lin Dalang's cheeks turned the color of pig liver, and he was ashamed and ashamed in his heart, and he was extremely embarrassed. In the end, he was sick and didn't dare to see Lin Longmian for several days.
Lin Long didn't push too hard, but every day he ordered the cloves to boil medicine and send it to Lin Dalang, and he also cooked some refreshing side dishes himself.
Lin Dalang became more and more guilty, although he didn't dare to see Lin Long, he often praised Lin Long to the people around him.
In this way, Lin Long's reputation among the Lin family is getting better and better.
On the contrary, it was Mama Lu, not only did her reputation stink, but Lin Dalang also began to alienate her, and gradually, she lost her prestige among her subordinates.
Once, Lilac rushed back and said to Lin Long: "Lady, the maid told you that Mama Lu wanted hot water just now, but she didn't want to come, the maid only said a word, and the hot water was sent over, and the maid spoke better than Mama Lu." โ
Lin Long smiled but said nothing.
Instead of currying favor with Lin Dalang, it is better to make him feel ashamed.
With his identity in the Lin family, he is more important than Mama Lu, and it is much more useful.
โโ
The old lady of Jingshi Lin Mansion had just received Lin Dalang's letter, and she unfolded the letter, and the more she looked at it, the tighter her brows became.
In this letter, Da Lang was full of praise for Lin Long.
She thought that the girl who came out of a small place had never seen the world and was easy to handle.
Sending Mama Lu over is a sure thing. Even if that girl is cunning, with Mama Lu's means, she can be restrained.
It's just those situations, or weak temperament, or cunning temperament, or fierce and inferior, several situations, the old lady has all expected.
But I never thought this would be the case.
Da Lang was full of praise for her, reading the meaning of the letter, but in just half a month, this girl actually enveloped everyone.
The old lady Rao has seen a lot of storms, and she has also met a lot of smart people, and at this moment, she is still very surprised.
What a great girl-
