Everything was ready, Mrs. Lin took Lin Yuan to the summer resort, and just as they walked out, someone from Zhu'an Yuan reported the situation to the second lady.

"What? The old woman was so silent that she took Lin Ran and Lin Yuan to the summer resort. The second lady gritted her teeth and said, "These people are quite good at getting away!" ”

"Madam, what should I do about this?" Mama Lan lowered her voice and rolled her eyes, "Madame, why don't you send someone to take them!" She made a clicking gesture.

"Fool, if you kill the old lady there, you won't suspect me?" The second lady's eyes crossed with a fierce color.

"But Madame has wasted such a good opportunity!" Mama Lan felt sorry for it.

Unexpectedly, the second lady narrowed her eyes slightly, and a strange smile appeared on her mouth: "I won't waste such a good opportunity in vain, I always have to find a substitute for the dead ghost!" ”

"Madame mean......" Mama Lan couldn't help but look at the second lady, who nodded, "You should know how to do it." ”

"Yes." Mama Lan took the order and retreated, and the second lady Gu came to Aster Garden to visit her daughter, as soon as she entered the house, the original stench was replaced by a sweet and greasy smell, she frowned, covered her nose and pulled the swift to the side and asked, "What kind of smell is this?" Why does it smell so bad? ”

Yuyan was puzzled and said: "Madam, this is the second medicine prepared by Dr. Lu, there is honey in it, and the slave has already put a little more according to Dr. Lu's instructions, maybe this is the taste." ”

The second lady frowned and pointed to the bowl in the distance and said, "Bring the freshly fried medicine." ”

Swift ordered to come over with the medicine, the second lady lowered her head and smelled it, a strange smell rushed up from the bottom up, she covered her nose in disgust and said, "Go and serve it to the second lady!" ”

After the swift entered, the second lady also walked in, and saw Lin Zixuan lying on the bed with a sallow face, her whole face was still swollen like a pig's head, she vaguely heard footsteps, opened her eyes slightly, and saw a figure that seemed to be her mother's mother in a daze.

"Mother, this medicine is too hard to drink, I don't want to drink it." Lin Zixuan could barely open her eyes, and said indignantly, "Look at me, I don't look like a ghost, and I don't look like a human." ”

"Xuan'er, as long as you drink according to Dr. Lu's prescription, your hair will definitely grow." The second lady persuaded her and looked at her hair, which was sparse and had grown a lot.

"When will I get out of bed?" Lin Zixuan slammed the edge of the bed fiercely, "Mother, I don't want to, I don't want to be like this." She threw her pillow on the floor in anger and shouted hysterically.

"Miss, keep your voice quiet, don't be heard by other people who have a heart." Mama Yan helped her wipe her head and persuaded her.

"I am not reconciled, I will not be reconciled." Lin Zixuan's eyes crossed a vicious gaze, she wanted to be uncomfortable, she wanted to make those people feel bad.

"You're really brainless!" The second lady nodded her head, "Look at the way you look now, if you don't give me a good lay, where are you going to go?" Your appearance only annoyed your father even more when he saw it. ”

Lin Zixuan was said by the second lady, and her red eyes were aggrieved: "Are we just sitting still?" ”

"Hmph, I've already asked Mama Lan to investigate, it just so happened that the old lady was far away, and I'm afraid I won't find evidence?" There was a cold chill in the eyes of the second lady.

"But even some clues will be cleaned up by them." Lin Zixuan couldn't help but ask worriedly.

"No, I have my own opinions." The second lady smiled faintly.

In Chengning Summer Resort, the group finally got out of the carriage, at this time Lin Yuan's face was already pale, and the whole person was leaning on Honglian's body, Lin suddenly kindly stepped forward to support her, "Auntie, are you suffering from heat stroke?" I have a cooling pill here, you can take it in your mouth first! ”

Lin Yuan pushed her hand away and said with a smile: "Sudden kindness, my aunt has a heart, and the red lotus will help me in!" ”

"Yes."

"This place is so big!" Green Willow couldn't help but be surprised, to be honest, this is the first time that Lin Ran, Du Mama, and Green Willow have come here, according to the time when they were not favored before, Lin Suddenly was rarely taken out.

Chengning Villa is built when Mr. Lin was alive, it is also his life's work, the whole villa is beautiful, located on the south bank of the lake, the terrain is flat, composed of several groups of courtyards and ponds, the forest is luxuriant, rich in natural interest, from the residence into the garden, the small courtyard on the east side of the peak Xuan, the courtyard is arranged in the Taihu Lake Shifeng, surrounded by a tortuous corridor, divided into a number of small spaces, dotted with caryophyllum orchids, like a delicate sketch painting, to the west, turn to the Chuan Jing Hall, the interior decoration and elegant furniture are all made of mahogany, In addition, the eaves of the built spire can not only dissipate heat, but also place ice cubes on the eaves to cool the house.

Mama Du glared at the green willow, "No rules!" The latter stuck out his tongue mischievously.

Lin suddenly smiled, "Mama Du, don't blame her, we are all here for the first time, and the green willow will inevitably feel fresh." She walked to the other carriage and said to the old lady, "Grandmother, we have arrived." ”

"Okay." Old Madam Lin stepped out of the carriage by Ruo Sakura's hand, glanced around, and walked to the plaque with four big characters written on the dragon flying phoenix hanging in the middle of the house, and couldn't help murmuring: "After so many years, the handwriting still hasn't faded." It just so happened that a middle-aged man walked out, and said respectfully with his hands: "The little one has seen the old lady, the third lady." ”

"Lao Chen, thank you for your hard work! Thanks to your many years of support, this plaque has not lost the traces of time. The old lady looked at the plaque with emotion.

"The small one should be, this is what the old lady left to the old lady before her death, no matter how you say it, the small one must do his best to repair it." Xiao Chen is neither humble nor arrogant.

The old lady had red eyes and nodded with satisfaction, "I hope the old man can see it over there!" Lin suddenly stepped forward and helped the old lady: "Grandmother, don't worry, grandfather will see it over there." The old lady was so pleased that she patted her hand and wiped her tears with a handkerchief, "You are the most sensible of these children, help me into the house!" ”

The grandparents and grandchildren talked and laughed and walked into the house, the people had already prepared snacks and herbal tea, the old lady took a sip of tea, did not see Lin Yuan's figure, and asked Mama Lian on the side: "What about Yuan'er?" ”

Mama Lian hurriedly stepped forward and said, "The second aunt and grandmother said that she was not feeling well, so she went into the house to rest." ”

"This kid is really getting more and more unruly." Old Madam Lin waved her hand, and a gleam crossed her eyes, "When she is well, let her come to see me, I have something to say to her." "Even Mama had to order her to retreat.

The old lady retreated again, she stroked the rim of the teacup and said casually: "Suddenly, you know Lin Yuan's matter!" ”

"Ah, grandmother, I don't understand what you mean?" Lin suddenly blinked.

"Tell me, is that person the elder of the Taoist Temple?" Lin Ranran couldn't help but admire Lin Ran's sharp insight and strong memory, but she didn't expect that she thought that the old lady had forgotten what happened last time, but she still remembered it so clearly.

"Sun Er only knows that Aunt is indeed with Elder Qi." Things have come to this point, there is no need to hide it from the old lady, it is better to admit it generously, not to mention that so many people have seen it with their own eyes at that time, Lin Ran just picked the key words and said.

"What a bastard thing." The old lady's eyebrows and eyes suddenly appeared, and then she sighed heavily: "It's okay for me to teach my daughter, how can I teach such a rebel!" ”

Lin suddenly hurriedly said: "Grandmother, don't be angry!" Don't be angry, we're here to let you and your aunt relax, come, have a cup of tea. ”

The old lady's face became even heavier, "Mama Lian, Yuan'er, why haven't you come here yet." ”

"Old lady." Mama Lian hesitated a little and said, "Just now Honglian came to report that the second aunt and grandmother had fallen asleep, can you disturb this time?" ”

"She still has the heart to sleep for me!" The old lady's face was even more ugly, and she was about to have a seizure, but was stopped by Lin Ran in time, "Grandmother, don't be angry, you are very tired after a day of driving the carriage today, not to mention that your aunt is still pregnant, why don't you let your aunt explain to you tomorrow?" She hid the sharpness in her eyes, her face was very anxious, and she pleaded with Lin Yuan, she spoke softly and tactfully, and her begging voice seemed sincere.

"She's pregnant with an heir? She's pregnant with a wild seed! The old lady laughed angrily, raised her eyebrows, "Suddenly, don't intercede for her, her crime should be punished, even Mama, call people up for me!" "The old lady has always said that one is one, and she is very majestic in front of the juniors, and Lin Yuan has always been favored by the old lady, seeing that the old lady has already spoken, even Mama Lian hurriedly asked Ruoying to call Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan wore a lotus-colored embroidered skirt and slowly walked into the house, belatedly blessed the old lady, and stood with a very calm face, just now she had already received a report from the red lotus, saying that the old lady was in a hurry to see her, and she guessed that it was the pregnancy that annoyed the old lady.

Sure enough, as soon as she finished her salute, the old lady shouted: "Kneel!" ”

Lin Yuan glanced at Lin Xuanran, glared at her resentfully, bit her lip, and slowly knelt down with her stomach straight.

The old lady's anger did not subside, and her voice became more and more severe: "You forgot all the female rings you carried? You dare to do something about getting pregnant before marriage, it's really insulting to the lintel of the Lin family! Even Mama, take the family law. ”

Seeing that the old lady was coming, Lin Yuan hung her head and cried to protect her abdomen: "Mother, I really love this child, I want to keep it." ”

"Bastard, you're a wild seed in your belly! Do you still want to get married in your life? The old lady slapped the table hard in a huff, which frightened Lin Yuan's heart.

Lin Ran hurriedly said: "Grandmother, you are not in good health, don't be angry, drink tea and talk about it, you can say anything well, my aunt is still pregnant, the ground is cold, let her get up and talk about it!" ”

When the old lady heard her words, she sighed heavily in her heart, and became more and more displeased with Lin Yuan, she trembled and hit Lin Yuan's back with a cane, "Women love themselves with cleanliness, but you ignore ethics and morality, fornicate with men, and don't know shame." She hated that iron could not be made of steel, so much so that she stomped on the floor with her cane: "Punish you for kneeling for a stick of incense." ”

Honglian was startled, knelt on the ground and pleaded: "Old lady, the ground is cold, the young lady will suffer from the cold when she kneels!" ”

"Hmph, you want to intercede for her, I haven't even asked for the piece of meat in her stomach." Old Madam Lin said coldly, "The family motto of the Lin family, do you remember Yuan'er?" ”

Lin Yuan lowered her head, weeping and muffled, and the old lady slapped the table again and said, "Say, what is the family motto of the Lin family!" ”

"A woman must not get pregnant before marriage, she must not be a concubine, and she must not make a lintel that insults the Lin Mansion." Lin Yuan cried and said in a low voice.

"Since you still dare to commit the family motto, you really lose my family's face." Old Madam Lin was furious: "The rules of the Lin family are that every woman of the Lin family must marry cleanly, how dare you do such a thing, saying, who is that man?" ”

"My daughter doesn't know!" Lin Yuan stubbornly lowered her head.

"Are you forced?" Old Madam Lin frowned and continued to probe, although Lin Ranran had said who that person was before, but she still hoped that it was not the result she wanted from her daughter's mouth, but Lin Yuan still refused to say a word, which made Old Madam Lin confirm what Lin Ranran said just now, this man is really worthy of her love? Is this kid stunned!

Thinking of this, Old Madam Lin glared angrily and said, "If you don't say anything, kneel here for me, if anyone intercedes for her again, kneel with her." ”

Everyone was silent for a while, no one dared to intercede for her, plus Lin Yuan was usually arrogant, it was really to the point of the bone, except for the red lotus just now, no one dared to stand up, after all, it was a scandal in the family, and they all looked at her kneeling there coldly.

Lin Yuan lowered her head and said, "My daughter is willing to accept the punishment." Even in summer, there was a thin skirt cushioning, but the coolness on the ground still kept coming from her knees, Lin Yuan gritted her teeth and endured it, stubbornly lowering her head.

"It's good, it's wonderful, it's a good daughter I've taught! Suddenly, help me into the house, I want to go in and rest for a while, and wait for a stick of incense to wake me up. Old Madam Lin laughed angrily.

"Yes, grandmother." Lin suddenly stepped forward respectfully to support the old lady, and the old lady frowned before leaving: "Mama Lian, add me some soothing incense, this smell makes me uncomfortable." ”

Mama Lian was stunned for a moment, looked at the old lady's expression and immediately understood, thinking of the instructions before leaving, and said respectfully: "Yes." ”

Soon, the hall in the house was smoky, with a faint fragrance, and if you smell it carefully, there is a fragrance of flowers, and the whole person has a fluttering feeling.

The old lady looked at the incense, and a resolute look crossed her face.
