Chapter 108: Man is a sword, I am a fish
The carriage arrived at Prince Jane's mansion, did not enter the main gate, but was led by a guard to a courtyard at the back door, Lin Ran walked down from the carriage with the help of the green willow, and walked through the corridor, the green willow and the bean sprouts were waiting on one side, and Lin Ran was led into the inner courtyard by a maid.
Slowly walked through the courtyard, walked into the lotus house near the east side, facing the small bridge flowing water and coral stones, in the middle of summer, both sides of the bridge are planted with fragrant orchids, and the center of the lake is planted with a few budding lotus flowers, a light breeze blows, the lake has a slight ripple, Lin suddenly slowed down and approached, because she saw Gao Ming lying on the fence of the pavilion feeding fish food, at this time she was wearing a pale pink gauze dress, white light gauze on her shoulders, and a playful oblique cloud bun like black jade. With a butterfly hairpin on his head and a plum blossom painted on his forehead, the whole person is like a butterfly flying in the wind, showing its agility and loveliness.
Lin Xuanran saw the other party, a faint and gentle smile appeared on his face, and slowly approached, Gao Ming didn't notice it, the maid Huansha next to her saw Lin Xuanran, and immediately reminded her, Gao Ming raised her head, and saw Lin Xuanran approaching from a distance, lifted her skirt and walked down from the pavilion, with a surprised smile on her face: "Sister Xuanran." β
Lin Ran smiled and saluted her, Gao Ming hurriedly helped her up, "Why should Sister Suddenly and I be so polite." β
When the two walked into the lotus fragrance house, Gao Ming couldn't wait to take her arm and walk into the inner room.
Inside, the pink curtains fluttered gently, the sunlight outside the house slanted into the house, and the wooden plate where the ice cubes were placed behind the large screen, the room was suddenly much cooler, which could not help but make people feel comfortable.
"Sister Suddenly, you finally came, I invited you several times, but you refused under the pretext of pretending." Gao Ming pouted and coquettishly pouted at her, Lin suddenly smiled and shook his head, "If the prince sees it, he will say that you are informal." β
"He said that, but he never held me back in this regard." Gao Ming's eyes crossed a touch of loneliness, "Since my brother had a serious illness, the whole person has become different, although he still cares about me a lot, but he is busier than usual, if it weren't for me, my brother wouldn't be like this." Gao Ming looked at Lin Ranran's expression with a hint of melancholy and self-blame, which made Lin Ranran surprised.
Gao Ming remembered that it was two weeks after the high fever subsided, and after she woke up, she was looking for her brother all over the house, but found that her brother was not there, so she found a maid and a mother-in-law, and all the people flashed to her, just saying that the prince was going to live in the palace for a few days, so that the county lord should not worry, even if Gao Ming was simple, seeing the eyes of the people avoiding her, she had to make her suspicious, she quietly found a palace maid's clothes, and got on the ox cart under the cover of Huansha to the palace, Just as she was looking for her brother's figure everywhere, she overheard the two palace maids quietly discussing: "Do you know? The one from Lianyun Palace didn't know what was going on today, and he was not satisfied with the few male pets he had recruited, and he was furious in the main hall. "Lianyun Palace is where the Empress Dowager lives, and it is the most remote place near the west foot.
"Isn't it, but I heard that Prince Jane went over, and the Empress Dowager didn't lose her temper." Another palace maid said with an ambiguous expression: "I didn't expect that the prince who has always been cold can also have a way." β
"Maybe this is not enough, who doesn't know that the prince died early when he was young, and he also has a young sister, do you think he can not do what he likes?" Gao Ming almost couldn't listen to it anymore when she heard this, she pulled her legs and ran towards Lianyun Palace, and quietly walked to the side of the hall, she heard bursts of pain and talking from inside, she knew that she couldn't go in, once she entered, all her brother's efforts would be ruined.
Gao Ming squatted there with tears in his eyes until it was dark, I don't know how long he waited, only heard a squeak, and the young man in the white robe walked out of the hall with an injury, and when he saw his sister, a touch of grief and shame flashed in the young man's eyes.
"Brother, let's go home." Gao Ming had tears in her eyes and hugged her brother's arm with her thin shoulder, she didn't know how to alleviate her brother's pain, and her little hand took out a piece of osmanthus cake that had long been out of shape from her pocket: "Brother, eat, eat." β
Gao Lian touched his sister's head lovingly, and he secretly swore that one day he would definitely let those who bullied him to pieces.
"Sister Suddenly, to tell you the truth, my brother has really not been easy along the way, you should know what kind of life is a prince who only has the name of a puppet but has no real power?"
Lin was slightly stunned, didn't say a word, and listened to Gao Ming continue.
"Sister Suddenly is a smart person, you should know why I invited you over today!" Gao Ming's face changed to a serious expression, he held her hand with his backhand, and asked seriously, "Do you like my brother?" β
Lin Ran just said lightly: "I have no relationship with the prince, just pure ordinary friends." β
Gao Ming looked at her and shook her head, her dark eyes seemed to be able to see through everything, "Sister Suddenly, your eyes can't deceive me, you're hesitating now, right?" Did you hear my brother's bad news outside? β
Even though Lin Ran was surprised that Gao Ming was able to perceive everything about her, he still said calmly on the surface: "The county lord is too careful, but suddenly he didn't..."
"Then why did my brother stay in the study and refuse to come out for a long time." Gao Ming looked at her quietly, "Especially the portrait of you, he usually doesn't do this, I know him very well." β
Lin was slightly surprised, I don't know when Gao Lian sent someone to paint her portrait, she raised her head and met Gao Ming's clear look, a smile appeared in her eyes, she only thought that her sister's concern for her brother would say this to her, but Gao Ming continued: "When I have no memory, my father and mother have passed away, only my brother and I are dependent on each other, my brother loves me very much, he will buy me almost anything I want, and at that time, although my brother was still underage, he was already more and more handsome." When I went to the street, some bold girls would blush and look at him, I thought that the two of us would live happily ever after, but when I was eight years old, my brother angered the Queen Mother because of something, so I was locked up in a small black room, so I was seriously ill, and later when I came out of the room, I learned that my brother became the Queen Mother's male favorite. β
Lin Ran originally held the cup in her hand and fell to the ground, Gao Ming glanced at her and continued: "Actually, this is just a means for the Empress Dowager to threaten her brother, the purpose is to fall in love with my brother and ask him to be her male favorite, since then my brother has entered the palace every once in a while, but we all know what he is doing when he goes in." She choked up as she spoke, tears slowly rolling down her cheeks, "My brother has been a puppet prince for three years, and finally in the fourth year, the old witch died of a sudden illness, and my brother finally regained his free body. "Needless to say, I know why the old witch died.
After listening to her story, Lin Ranran's whole heart hurt, she can imagine that the parents of the teenager who were only teenagers at that time died, without any background, and could only rely on his own ability to protect his only remaining relatives, but you can imagine how difficult it was for him to survive in the cracks at that time, and such a man who dared to take responsibility, she misunderstood him, Lin Ranran felt that he was really a fool.
"Sister Ran, I told you so much, in fact, I just want to tell you that my brother really likes you and cherishes you very much." Lin suddenly looked at Gao Ming in a daze, the emotions in his heart were turbulent, the smile on his face was gone, and it was replaced by a distress for Gao Lian, his forbearance, and his unyieldingness.
"Thank you for saying so much to me, I suddenly understood." A touch of warmth crossed Lin Ranran's eyes, and she held Gao Ming's hand with her backhand, "Thank you for your concern." β
Gao Ming went around in such a big circle, how could she not understand, it seems that the bell must be tied to the bell!
"County Lord, it's time to drink the medicine." Huansha on the side reminded in a whisper.
"Okay, bring it over."
"County Lord, your body..." Lin Yuran also stood up at the same time and asked with concern.
Gao Ming smiled and waved his hand, "I have a stomach ache recently, so my brother asked Imperial Doctor Luo to prescribe a pair of medicine patches, which are not in the way, and it will be fine after drinking it for a while." β
Lin Ran breathed a sigh of relief, Gao Ming looked at her appearance, and said with a smile: "Sister Ran, it seems that you still care about me very much!" β
The county lord laughed. Lin said with a smile, she still likes this little girl in her heart.
"Hmph, don't always call me the county lord, I don't like to hear this name, or call me Ming'er!" Gao Ming smiled and saw through Lin Ranran's refusal, and pretended to make a straight face: "Otherwise, I'll cry to you." β
What a naΓ―ve child, Lin suddenly nodded amusedly, "Then let's call it a little girl!" β
"Hey, it's a lovely name, I like it." Gao Ming happily hugged Lin Ranran and said affectionately, "Sister Suddenly, it's good for you to be my sister-in-law!" β
Lin suddenly almost slammed out the water that he had drunk half of it, and at this time, a mellow cold voice came from outside the house: "Ming'er, are you not well-behaved again!" β
"Not really." Gao Ming saw Gao Lian, stood up happily and walked to his side, whispered a few words, Gao Lian touched her head dotingly, and said helplessly: "Ghost spirit!" β
Lin suddenly saw Gao Lian looking at her, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute, Gao Lian's eyes flashed with joy the moment he looked at her, and it quickly dimmed.
"No need to be polite in the house." Gao Lian's brows furrowed slightly, a little dissatisfied with her alienation.
Gao Ming saw that the atmosphere was stiff, she smiled and decided to be a matchmaker, she pushed Lin Ran to her brother's side, and said, "Brother, Sister Suddenly hasn't seen the garden here, should you do your best to be a landlord?" She hinted at Gao Lian with her eyes, brother, I gave you the opportunity, you have to take advantage of it.
Gao Lian pretended to cough, and rarely solemnly invited Lin Ran: "Miss Lin, why don't you take this king out for a walk!" β
"Go, go!" Gao Ming urged, "Take this opportunity to have a good exchange." She was afraid that Lin would not agree, so she pushed her out and accidentally bumped into Gao Lian's body.
"It's okay, Miss Lin." Gao Lian hurriedly took her, and Lin suddenly blushed and snorted.
Gao Ming smiled and nodded at Lin Suran, took a deep look at the two of them again, and then said to Huansha beside him, "I'm going to take a nap." The implication was that she was about to send off guests, and Lin Ran could only follow Gao Lian away with interest.
Gao Ming looked at the backs of the two of them leaving and covered her mouth and smiled secretly, while Huansha asked worriedly: "Miss, aren't you afraid of messing around with mandarin duck scores!" β
"No, no, I won't have a sister-in-law soon." Gao Ming's smile was unfathomable.
At that time, Gao Lian took Lin Ranran's hand and rushed to his house, no matter what happened today, he would not let her escape.
"Lord Wang, can you walk a little slower!" Lin was pulled out of breath by him, Gao Lian just took her hand and walked into the house without saying a word, and without saying a word, he hugged her whole person into his arms, and whispered: "Suddenly, do you think I'm dirty?" β
Before Lin could react, Gao Lian lowered his head and kissed her lips gently, as if he was afraid of breaking it.
Lin Ran didn't know why he had such a strange behavior today, but she didn't think about it so much, stretched out her hand to wrap around his waist, and responded to his kiss, until the temperature between the two was getting higher and higher, and Gao Lian let go of her.
"I don't think you're dirty, really." Lin Ran smiled softly, the haze that had been buried in her heart for many days suddenly brightened up because of Gao Ming's words, he has his past, and she also has her past, why should she stick to this, as long as the two can truly love each other.
"Why are you so transformed?" Gao Lian's eyes were happy, and he hugged her tightly in his arms, and asked in disbelief.
Because I feel sorry for you, because you have occupied a certain position in my heart, Gao Lian, how can a man like you not be tempted.
Lin suddenly thought in his heart, but on the surface, he still reached out and touched his handsome face, and gently kissed his lips on the cheek: "The county lord told me everything, I'm sorry, I don't know if it's a little late." Before she finished speaking, she felt Gao Lian's body stiffen suddenly, but this time Lin Ran didn't give him a chance to back down and continued to rest her head on his chest, "I heard some rumors that I have some misunderstandings about you before, but from today onwards, we all have to trust each other, okay?" Even if it's wrong or right? Let's not run away, okay? β
"Will you believe me?" Gao Lian's deep eyes looked at her fixedly.
"I do." Lin suddenly smiled lightly, and also looked at him.
"Okay." Gao Lian lowered his head and kissed the woman he loved deeply.
"But I have something to tell you." Gao Lian hugged her and said, "I will go to the Yunnan border the day after tomorrow, and it is estimated that it will take two months." β
"Huh?" Lin was stunned for a moment, it took so long, Gao Lian smiled and kissed her forehead: "Don't worry, I will come back safely, waiting for my good news." β
"Oh." Lin suddenly nodded stupidly, "You have to be careful!" Just such a simple sentence, but Gao Lian couldn't hold back the joy in her heart, hooked her jaw, and kissed the woman in her arms again.
Later, Lin suddenly learned that Gao Lian was a male pet before he was reborn, but later after he was reborn, his memory did not disappear, and he secretly poisoned the Empress Dowager for three years, but not everyone knew about this matter, except for the cronies who were together at the time and Tang Zhiqin, who participated.
Inside the Aster Garden
Lin Zixuan drank the medicine for nearly a month but did not get better, but the second lady was infected with chickenpox again, so she could only send the maid around her to visit, and all she got was the news that she did not get better, so angry that the second lady's illness became even worse.
In the blink of an eye, summer went to autumn, Lin Zixuan fell ill because she fell off the horse, and the whole person was sick, Gu secretly invited almost all the famous doctors in the capital, but every doctor shook his head and said that there was no cure, Gu was devastated, and he hated Lin Ran to the extreme.
The news of Lin Zixuan's illness spread to Fushoutang, and the old lady Qin's hand that was drinking tea paused, and when she put down the teacup, she sighed softly, "You can't live if you do your own evil!" β
Although Lin Zixuan is the concubine of the Lin family, she is also one of the four talented women in Jincheng, if she can keep to herself, don't always think that climbing high branches will not end up like this, she was originally asked to marry a family member who is the right family, and it will also help the Lin family at that time, but now she has become a sick seedling, who else dares to marry a sick seedling at that time? can't get married, and shame the family, which makes the old lady who has always valued the honor of the family worried, Lin Zixuan herself is a high-spirited person, if she marries her casually, it will also lose her old face, but occasionally she will still send a maid to ask Zixuan about her current situation, after all, she is also one of her granddaughters.
For the old lady, he is quite humane, but Lin Qisheng is a little colder, as soon as he heard that his second daughter has no use value, he simply ignored her, as for the rest of her life, he wanted to find someone to marry her.
Lin Liran had already guessed that Lin Qisheng treated his biological daughter so coldly, but Lin Zixuan had such a biological father It was really chilling, she also recalled that when she came back from the cemetery, Lin Qisheng almost sent herself to the Buddhist hall, if it wasn't for the old lady to stop her, I'm afraid it would have been his wish a long time ago, and now Lin Zixuan has such an end, which is also caused by her, who is to blame, if she hadn't framed her with Gu Yini, she and Gao Lian's brother and sister would not have joined forces to deal with her, All these disasters and disasters were caused by herself, everything was her own fault, as for the second lady, she also caused her own evil consequences, and she couldn't blame anyone, as the so-called good people were bullied, it was because the mother and daughter thought that the main son Lin was too weak, so they bullied her.
Lin suddenly pretended to be distressed and asked, "Mama Lian, is my sister's illness really incurable?" β
Even my mother looked at the old lady's face, and sighed heavily: "There is no way, the old lady has already asked Dr. Li to see it, and said that the girl's heart and lungs are seriously damaged, and I am afraid that she will lie in bed in the future. β
The old lady took a sip of tea and said lightly: "Suddenly, you don't have to worry about that mother and daughter, this is also their fate, if it wasn't for Zixuan's love to be in the limelight, how could this happen?" What's more, fortunately, the crown princess didn't care about this matter, if it was someone else, would our Lin family still be able to survive safely? In fact, what she didn't say was that her second granddaughter really had no brains, she only wanted to be in the limelight, and she didn't think about it at all once she won the princess, but she completely fell into the face of the princess, and if she really angered the princess, the consequences would be unimaginable.
At this moment, Wakazakura walked in with a post, her face full of joy: "Old lady, you dissipate your anger, the slave maid tells you a good news, the queen mother sent someone to send a post, to invite the lady and lady of the house to enter the palace to enjoy the flowers together." β
"Really?" The old lady was suddenly overjoyed, she looked at the sudden face with a little joy, she patted the sudden sign and said seriously: "Child, you have to behave well at this banquet!" β
"Yes, in fact, I was able to participate in this banquet because of the old lady's blessing." Lin Ran smiled with a modest face, in the eyes of others, this third lady has a very down-to-earth and generous attitude, even if she is not happy or sad about the invitation of the Queen Mother, she behaves very calmly, and the old lady is sure that this child will be a big man.
"Is it just the second sister going?" Lin suddenly thought for a while and asked.
"What is she going to do? Holding a sick body to embarrass me? At this time, Lin Qisheng walked in from outside the door, and all the maids saluted him, Lin Qisheng nodded lightly, and walked to the old lady's side to say goodbye.
"Son, no matter how bad Zixuan is, she is still the young lady of the Lin Mansion, if you don't let her go, you will make people gossip!" The old lady is a reasonable person, and said with a frown.
"Mother, don't you know, I just asked the doctor, Zixuan can't even get up now, you let her go to the banquet in a carriage, not to mention the banquet of the Queen Mother, her appearance not only made those young ladies laugh, but even the face of our Lin family is gone, suddenly, you can take Ruyi and Xiao Ran with you, as for Zixuan, I will find someone to take care of them." Lin Qisheng made a decision at the moment, and Mrs. Lin thought about it and felt that what her son said made sense, so she didn't continue to talk about it.
returned to Ranyuan Pavilion, and the old lady sent Tian Xiuniang to tailor clothes for Lin Xuanran, because this time it was the Queen Mother's flower viewing banquet, and the people who went were all characters with heads and faces, and the old lady naturally had to work hard in this regard.
Tian Xiuniang carefully measured Lin Ran's figure, and admired her: "Miss is not only beautiful, but even maintains such a good figure." Lin suddenly smiled and asked Luliu to reward her with a certain amount of gold ingots, and Tian Xiuniang was suddenly overjoyed and said: "Third Miss, please rest assured, I will definitely come out within three days." β
"Only one?" Lin suddenly looked at her with a smile, Tian Xiuniang was stunned, she didn't know what the second miss meant, she smiled and continued: "Later, you will go to Ruyi Pavilion to customize a set of clothes for the fifth miss." β
"But that's not right!" Tian Xiuniang was a little hesitant, after all, this was just the old lady's order to be Lin Ranran alone, and she didn't mention that there was a fifth lady.
Lin suddenly made a look, and Lu Liu took another ingots and put it in her hand, "I don't know if Master Tian can agree now." β
Tian Xiuniang had never seen two gold ingots at one time, so she nodded hurriedly: "Miss, please rest assured, I will definitely rush out of the two dresses within five days." β
"Very well, it would be nice if you could just send me the clothes when the time comes, and one more thing, if you ask why there are two sets, you should know!" Lin suddenly approached her lightly and said.
"Yes, I understand what Miss San means." Tian Xiuniang smiled flatteringly, and Lin suddenly smiled gently: "Then there is Master Lao Tian." β
Lu Liu next to him smiled and said, "Master Tian, your cloth business should be good!" β
Master Tian smiled proudly: "Of course, a few days ago, all the daughters of the women ordered the fabric here with me, and Princess Ning also came over to make a dress." β
"Oh, really?" Lin suddenly smiled and looked harmless, Tian Xiuniang set up her heart and said with a smile: "Yes, I heard that many sons will participate in the banquet, and by the way, the eldest son will also come to the banquet this time." β
"Oh?" Lin was stunned for a moment, but quickly recovered his expression, and said lightly: "Isn't the eldest brother at the border?" β
"Miss doesn't know, he has made a lot of contributions this time, and even Prince Jian has been credited this time." Tian Xiuniang said happily, "What's more, these two people are young and promising, handsome, unmarried, and they are already looking forward to their return."
After being reminded by her, she remembered that Gao Lian had indeed been away from her side for two months, and she didn't expect time to pass so quickly, and when she thought that he was about to come back, her heart suddenly pounded.
Tian Xiuniang didn't know the change in Lin Ran's heart and said with a smile: "There are a lot of famous daughters present this time, miss, believe in my craftsmanship, I will definitely make clothes that satisfy you." β
Lin suddenly nodded, to be honest, the queen mother's banquet was a blind date in disguise, of course those daughters wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to show themselves, and this time there were royal sons who would go, could this not make those young ladies want to move?
Lin Xiaoran asked Luliu to send Tian Xiuniang away, Lin Xiaoran walked to her sister's side and asked curiously, "Sister, why do you want to make a set of clothes for Sister Ruyi?" Obviously my grandmother didn't say it. "Silly child, the old lady let Ruyi go over was originally just a casual remark, because this time it is estimated that she was angry with Zixuan's matter, so she will let Ruyi accompany me over, but if I don't make a dress for her, I will really make a fool of myself at that time." "Sister, you are so kind." Lin Xiaoran sighed dissatisfied. "Wrong, because we want to use each other, in order to gain the trust of the fifth lady so that I can deal with the cunning second lady, there is no way to use my strength, so I must find an alliance." Lin suddenly patted his head, "You'll understand when you're older." "Oh." Lin Xiaoran nodded thoughtfully, and suddenly said as if he had thought of something: "Sister, did Prince Jian go over this time?" "Do you want to call your brother-in-law?" Lin Ran saw through his thoughts and nodded his head: "You read more books, don't always use your sister's brain." "Sister, your boss is not too young, it's time to get out of the cabinet, and if you don't get married, no one really wants it." Lin Xiaoran said in the tone of a little adult. "When you are successful, I will marry again, otherwise I will not worry about getting married." Lin Xiaoran swore that Lin Xiaoran's eyes widened suddenly: "If I become a mature student in another five years, sister, won't you become an old girl at that time?" Where else would anyone want it? "Stinky boy, look down on my sister?" Lin Xiaoran rolled up his sleeves and pretended to beat him, but Lin Xiaoran fled with a smile. "You come back for me, the little hairy boy is running so fast." Lin suddenly gasped and sighed, looking at his younger brother standing in the distance: "You really like Prince Jian so much?" "Yes, sister, you're going to take me, right?" Lin Xiaoran flatteringly approached Lin Xuanran's side and looked at her flatteringly, her eyes blinking like a well-behaved puppy, Lin Xuanran burst out laughing. "You tell me the reason first, and then I'll decide whether to take you with me or not." Lin suddenly smiled at his younger brother and sat on the stone bench.
Lin Xiaoran puffed up his chest, and recounted his military exploits as a number of treasures: Prince Jian Gao Lian went on the field to kill the enemy at the age of thirteen, and won the title of young general for the first time in a battle with one enemy and one hundred, and then went out several times in succession, all of which were invincible, and once when there was no food and grass, he broke through the siege and was rescued in the shortest possible time. "Okay, okay, I see." Lin suddenly interrupted him helplessly, "It seems that this Gao Lian is as great as a god in your mind, huh?" "Hmm." Lin Xiaoran's eyes sparkled with adoration, "Sister, can I not worship him?" He is my idol, you think about it, he was fatherless and motherless when he was young, how much merit does it take to get such a title, and this Prince Jane is not like other sons who only know how to eat, drink and be merry, he knows a lot of things, he can play chess, read military books, and layout... Lin suddenly interrupted him, "You've said it more than ten times, and my ears are calloused." "Sister, he is really brave, I want to learn from him, and like him, I can go out to kill the enemy."
Lin suddenly sighed, it seemed that Gao Lian's influence on him was too deep, so he could only touch his head with a smile: "You don't care about other things, the most important thing is to read the book first, and the rest is all on paper, do you know?" "Well, I know my sister, so will you take me this time?" Lin Xiaoran asked Lin Ranran with a longing face, but Lin Ranran couldn't resist his expectations, looked at him and smiled: "Green Willow, bring the young master's clothes." β
As soon as Lin Xiaoran heard that his clothes were ready, he happily pulled Lin Ranran around a few times, and couldn't hide a happy smile in his eyes: "Sister, it turns out that you lied to me, in fact, you were ready to take me a long time ago!" β
Lin suddenly looked at his younger brother's pure face and said with a smile: "Yes, I will take you there, but my sister still hopes that you can grow up happily and don't have to deal with the villain who cheats me." "I know everything, sister." Lin Xiaoran shook Lin Ranran's hand back, and promised with a smile: "I will definitely protect you and your mother in the future." β
Lu Liu looked at the side and couldn't help but sigh, Miss is really good intentions to the young master, when the other sons are still having fun, the young lady has asked the young master to start reading the Four Books and Five Classics, knowing that the young master likes swords, so he invited the master in the martial arts hall to teach him boxing and swordsmanship, all of which is to make the young master have a bright future. "As long as you are good, my sister will be very satisfied." Lin said with a smile. "But sister, you will be tired of protecting me and my mother like this, and my brother hopes that one day he can take over my sister's burden to take care of you." Lin Xiaoran's eyes were burning, and he didn't look like a 12-year-old boy at all. "Sister is not tired." Lin suddenly evoked a faint smile, "This world is full of too much deceit, if you blindly clear the high, you can't integrate into this circle." "It's like a big lady, because she is too proud and can't flatter, she can't please her husband and her mother-in-law.
Lin Xiaoran looked at her blankly, Lin Xiaoran continued: "The battle between the royal family is like a trap of many crises, as long as you are not careful, your life will be lost, this step by step is more like walking on thin ice than in Shangshu Mansion, just like the emperor said that you are guilty, you are guilty, if even if you are really guilty, he said that if you are not guilty, you are really not guilty, as the saying goes, a good companion is like a tiger, as long as you take a slight wrong step, not only you will lose your life but also implicate the entire family, of course, it is not for you to flatter one person, to be moderate, One less point is false, one more is flattering, you must carefully grasp this degree, even if you meet a difficult nobleman, you have to try to forbear, even if you kneel on the ground and shout a dog, you have to do it, and when one day you surpass him, you can overwhelm him, in the palace, the fittest can survive. β
Lin Xiaoran was stunned, she didn't expect her sister to say such things that were contrary to the moral arguments, but she also had to say that her sister's truths were right, the knowledge in the books was dead, but it was a completely different situation when it was really used in life, no wonder my sister always told him to apply what he had learned, and he couldn't be bound by the knowledge in the books, it seems that what my sister said was right.
Lin suddenly said lightly: "When you practice such a temperament one day, I will agree to your request, but now you are not qualified enough." "Really?" Lin Xiaoran was moved by this unexpected result, "As long as my sister says something, I will listen to my sister." "Silly boy!" Lin suddenly sighed, in fact, she didn't want her brother to fall into such a complicated circle, as long as she entered this dark place, she just wanted her brother to live happily, but after all, her brother had grown up and had his thoughts, hey, she didn't know whether his growth was right or wrong.
Lin Ran had actually asked Gao Lian before this, hoping to let his younger brother be his scholar and let him start learning a little about human affairs, Gao Lian actually agreed, which was very unexpected.
Lin Xiaoran looked at his sister and fell into silence, he kept thinking about his sister's words, if he really wants to go out to kill the enemy, if there is no support and background behind him, don't say that he is killing the enemy, it is estimated that he has already retired before he reaches the emperor's level, not to mention that now his eldest brother has won many achievements, it is very likely that his status will surpass his sister-in-law, and once Lin Kejing is knighted, he will have no place to stand, and more importantly, what about his mother and sister? Although grandmother can still protect them now, but grandmother will leave them one day, then by that time they will be the fish on the knife, he has always had a stuttering problem, so he is very inferior, and he does not dare to compare with his brother, just blindly hide in the corner, envy himself that he will one day be able to kill the enemy like his eldest brother Gao Lian, and now his sister told him that only by climbing to the position of power, he will have a way to go, and will go to the position he wants, and it is the cruel reality that he suddenly figured out everything, Although my sister was very strict with him, she didn't give up her efforts because of his disability, all for his good, he raised his head suddenly, and his expression was unusually serious: "Sister, don't worry, one day I will meet your requirements." β
Lin suddenly smiled and touched his head: "Don't let me down." β
After Lin Xiaoran left, Luliu and Mama Du walked to her side, with a worried face: "Miss, are you doing this well?" After all, the second young master is still too young. β
Lin Shuran shook his head: "He is not young, he should have reached the age of being involved in the world, I got the news just now that Lin Jingke will also come to attend the banquet of the Queen Mother this time." "What?" Green Willow's eyes widened in surprise, "Isn't the eldest young master on a campaign?" How did he get back? "Because he won the battle, he came to ask the emperor for a reward, and it was also for Lin Zixuan's mother and daughter." Lin Ran narrowed his eyes slightly and smiled: "The news that he stays in the frontier will naturally not be very good, but as soon as he comes back, there will naturally be cronies to tell him the news, do you think he can not avenge his mother and sister?" "Miss, you have to be careful, the person who comes is not good!" Mama Du was so worried that she stepped forward and shook Lin Ranran's hand. "Don't be afraid, Mama, I will make them fish on the knife, and they won't even have a chance to turn over." Lin Ranran's eyes flashed with a gleam, and her beautiful face revealed a touch of firmness.

When the second lady learned the news that her son was about to return triumphantly, the smile on her lips couldn't be closed, "Great, Mama Lan, this time we are saved, I know that this son is angry." β
Mama Lan also had a smile on her face: "Second lady, you can rest assured now, as long as the eldest young master comes, everything will be easy." "Well, yes, the old woman won't let us go to the banquet thinking we don't know." A cruel look crossed the eyes of the second lady, "As long as Ke'er goes to the emperor to ask for a reward this time, let me become a flat wife, maybe I will have a chance to turn over." "At that time, she won't be able to torture the mother and daughter." Second lady, you are so wise. Mama Lan praised, "Thanks to the eldest young master, this time the second lady can enjoy Qingfu, and then the one from Fushoutang will have to look down at us." β
The second lady listened to Mama Lan's praise, and was about to float up triumphantly, as if she imagined that the position of the flat wife was beckoning to her, "Mama Lan, the benefits will be indispensable to you at that time." "Thank you, ma'am."
While these two people were planning their plans, what they didn't know was that Lin Ran was preparing a gift for them.
