Wu Gu took the letter from the eldest lady and showed it to the master.

The old man was watching, and he was playing with the medicine bottle given to him by the eldest lady underneath.

It can be seen that the medicine bottle was specially made for him, and the wooden bottle with a woody fragrance is carved with a few small bones that make a grimace, and it can be seen from the traces that it is new.

The grimace of each little bone is different, and the black bone holds a few medicine bottles and puts them under the light and looks at them carefully, but he doesn't know that the face of the old man who reads the letter over there is green.

Master Lin was scolding: "What is this written? Was this written by a little lady? ”

Lin Shouyi looked at it from the side, and it can be regarded as reading a letter with his head tilted, the chief housekeeper of the Lin family is not an ordinary person after all, and he can still speak for the eldest lady at this time: "Master, the eldest lady is also a true temperament, I think it's okay, this person who has to get married sooner or later, it's good to know the other party's temperament as soon as possible." ”

"You're not afraid that people won't marry her?" Master Lin was almost confused.

"Our family has money." Don't be afraid of not marrying, Lin Shouyi muttered quietly.

In the past two days, he can be regarded as understanding from the old man why the Dao family wants to appoint their eldest lady for the eldest grandson.

The current eldest lady of the Dao Mansion is also the queen of the Jiangmen, but the Jiangmen is a general with little money, that is, the son of the Li surname of the Hanmen was promoted by military merits, and the old general of the Li Men was friendly with the old general of the Dao family, so he married the Dao Lady into the marriage of the two surnames, and I heard that the dowry of the Dao Lady who married into the Dao family was just three boxes......

After becoming a general, the general of the Li family has married a lot of wives and concubines and had a lot of children, and it costs a lot of money to raise a wife and concubine to raise children.

If you don't give some of this, you have to stick some, and if you think about it, you know how difficult it is for this lady to be in the knife family.

The old lady of the Dao family set the Lin family for her eldest grandson, which can be called love.

Their Lin family has nothing else, they have money and food.

Don't be afraid not to marry.

"What did you say?" No matter how small the butler's voice was, Master Lin also heard it, and turned his head to look at his big butler in disbelief.

Lin Shouyi coughed lightly, straightened his face, and replied: "Master, I mean that our eldest lady is so smart and clever, how can the insight between the lines be comparable to ordinary ladies?" That little boy of the Dao family is not an ordinary person, and he will definitely be able to see that the eldest lady of our family is extremely intelligent! ”

The big butler is the big butler, and what he says is not ordinary.

Wu Gu pinched the wooden bottle in his hand and turned around, admiring him very much for the big housekeeper who usually took care of him.

Around the master, there are really many capable people.

"Can you not tell nonsense?" Lin Baoshan squinted at his big butler.

Lin Shouyi shook his head, "Then you can do it, I'll go and fight the burden of the black bones again." ”

When he left, the black bone wrapped the small wooden bottle with the black cloth embroidered with small bones that it was wrapped in, tied it tightly to his belt, and also opened his mouth: "I think the big butler is right, what to hide, I will know sooner or later, now I know, if you don't like it, you will leave early." ”

It's not rare for their eldest lady, is it possible that their eldest lady is still rare?

Their eldest lady is okay if she doesn't marry, but it's a big deal that he killed all the Lin family members who can gossip about her.

"You guys......" Lin Baoshan looked at them sadly, and finally understood why he taught carefully, carefully taught, and his baby daughter was still crooked.

It's all brought by this group of people around you!

I knew that he would not have taken her to contact these people since she was a child.

No matter what Master Lin thought, in the end, Wu Gu still brought the letter written by Aunt Lin to the capital, picked a good day with a dark month and high wind, and smashed it into the arms of Xiaolang of the Dao family with his burden.

Wu Gu didn't care what the Dao family Xiaolang thought, and in the future, he would concentrate on doing what the master told him in Beijing, but when he was in Beijing for half a month and was about to set off to return to Zhouzhou, one night, the Dao family Xiaolang wearing a black dress also found him in the dark and windy night and shot a letter into his hair.

Then the man left.

In the blink of an eye, it was gone.

The letter was very thin, pinched into the hand as if holding a thin piece of paper, black bones looked at it for a long time, then remembered that it might be a reply to the eldest lady, so he immediately put it in his arms.

After January, the May of Wuzhou is picturesque, the flowers of the whole city are blooming, the pedestrians on the road you squeeze me, I squeeze you, the buyers and sellers raise their voices and shout around, the cargo ships and goods of the Wuzhou wharf go up and down with people, and the smoke rises on the roofs of the houses in Chengzhou, which is a good fireworks scene in the world.

This night, Aunt Lin added up her two lives and received the first reply letter from a man who had a relationship with her.

This should have been a poetic moment, when Aunt Lin received the reply, she was still smiling, thinking that this ancient person just had sentiments, wrote a letter, and received a reply, this back and forth, not too beautiful.

Just opened the letter, she looked up and down, left and right, and splashed it with water, and only saw the words "read" and the word "knife" in the payment, and there were not many, she still felt that she was blind, and she couldn't believe it, so she pulled the little girl and looked for her again.

Still haven't found one more word.

"What do you mean?" Aunt Lin didn't understand it, so she took the letter to her fat father and muttered to him, "This means that after reading it, you promised me that you will save more money?" ”

"Really?" Master Lin didn't figure it out, and looked left and right at the letter that had been splashed with water by his daughter and stained the handwriting.

"I'm thinking," Aunt Lin thought, thinking, and then thinking about the content of the letter she wrote, and said very seriously, "It should be, 'Okay, I know, don't talk about it'." ”

Master Lin was speechless when he saw his daughter burying herself so clearly.

"You didn't say you wanted to get out of the marriage, did you?" Aunt Lin approached her fat father and asked her father.

"I haven't heard of it." Lin Baoshan shook his head.

"Oh my God," Aunt Lin also shook her head and shook her head, "I won't withdraw from the marriage like this, this little brother is also very self-contained!" ”

She also sighed, Lin Baoshan couldn't cry or laugh, and patted her head, "Don't tell your father, this marriage is not child's play, you give me a serious look!" ”

Aunt Lin held her fat father's big fat hand with both hands and laughed non-stop.

Her fat father has been in good health recently, and the little fat man has grown a lot better than before, knowing that there is something wrong with her little body, even if she is greedy, she can endure it. Now that everything in the family is good, she is also in a very good mood, and she also asked Yi's third sister to go to the temple to incense and listen to the teacher tell them about the ancient scriptures.

It's been a good day.

She was in a good mood, and she didn't understand the letter, but she didn't care, she didn't say that she would withdraw from the marriage, and she was willing to reply to the letter, even if it was just two words, he specially found the elusive Uncle Wugu to bring back, which shows that Brother Xiaolang is also sincere.

Therefore, Aunt Lin didn't write a reply letter this time, and it was not interesting for her to write another letter after someone wrote two words, but she carefully prepared a gift and sent it to her family who traveled to and from the capital city.

She also knew that this little brother Lang was going to war, and he was going to the northernmost part of the Ren Dynasty, and he was fighting a big battle every year in the middle of winter with the tall and strong bears in the northernmost part, so he prepared warm clothes for people, as well as wool cloaks, etc., regardless of whether they were still young or not, and prepared a small pot of twenty-year-old burning knives.

That wine is so strong that just one sip can make people's whole body burn.

Aunt Lin thought, just brew this spirit, this little brother will remember her.

**

In the spring of the seventh year of Qinghe, the rain in Yizhou did not stop, and seeing that it was about to become flooded, all the stewards of the Lin Mansion were sent out to be in charge of all the fields under the government.

Lin Baoshan, the head of the Lin Mansion, has been to the Lantern Festival in the Zhizhou Mansion since the New Year, and he has never gotten up again since he came back.

After midnight that day, it was still dark, Aunt Lin touched the bed and sat up, as soon as she sat up, she exhaled lightly, rubbed her face heavily with her hands, and got out of bed to pick up her shoes.

She knew that the hour was still early, but it was only the hour, it was still very early before dawn, and it would take more than an hour to go, and the little girl had been sent a lot of things by her recently, and she was tired all day long, she wanted them to sleep more, so the sound of getting out of bed was also soft, and she quietly went to the table to blow the lamp on, took it to the dressing mirror, put on her clothes behind the screen, and sat down in front of the makeup stool to make herself, just tied the bun, inserted the petal hairpin made of rubies, and heard the sound of fast steps coming from behind.

"Lady ......" Dasu was on duty today, and her voice was a little vague when she called Aunt Lin.

Aunt Lin turned around and smiled at the maid, "Wake up?" ”

Da Su's hair was still draped, she just got up, her lips were bloody, her black hair blocked half of her face, and her little face was even whiter, she smiled at Aunt Lin as soon as she walked over, squatted down beside Aunt Lin, and put shoes on Aunt Lin.

Aunt Lin touched her hair, and after a while, she whispered, "I'll go to my father's place later, take a step first, and then come over after you pack up." ”

"Huh." Da Su responded.

Aunt Lin smiled again and patted the obedient maid's head.

At this time, Xiaoya also brought hot water over, Aunt Lin cleaned her teeth, washed her face and went out, carrying a paper lantern inserted in front of the porch.

The night is still dark, the drizzle is light, the paper lamp looks forward, and the cold drizzle outside the corridor is also rendered a bit of poignant beauty.

Aunt Lin has moved to the main courtyard since the first month, she lives not far from the big house where her father lives, walks through a long corridor of more than ten zhang, and then turns around and walks more than ten steps to arrive.

This now closed courtyard is inhabited by their father and daughter and a few close people, now silent, the sound of the maid behind her telling her to walk carefully is far away, Aunt Lin carried a lantern, through the rainy night, to the door of her father's house.

Lin Qiang, who was guarding the door, had seen her and was waiting by the door, he lifted the lantern in Aunt Lin's hand, and said to her in a suppressed voice: "You are here." ”

Lin Qiang's voice broke the silence of the night, for some reason, Aunt Lin, who had been restless early in the morning, panicked even more, she looked back at the rainy night, wanting to see if there was a hand in the dark night that was tightly choking her throat and making her breathless......

It's just that in that dark night, only a continuous drizzle is still drifting.

"Big lady?"

"Well, I'll go inside."

Lin Qiang's cry brought Aunt Lin back to her senses, and she lifted her foot over the threshold and stepped into the house.

As soon as she entered the house, the cold and fresh air that was different from the outside, and the heating with bloody smell came to her face, and Aunt Lin felt that with every step, her heart sank more and more.

It's as if every foot she stepped on her heart was so heavy and painful.

Xu is evil fate always carries signs, but after a few steps, she looked at the motionless black shadow on the bed, and her whole body trembled.
