Until the iceman left, Lin Gang and Lin Chuang didn't say a word for Lin Long.

Lin Nan secretly thought that he had to find an opportunity to inform Lin Long that there was such a marriage, and he didn't specify which family's daughter it was, everyone had a chance, but it was unfair to exclude Lin Long.

Just as he was about to turn around and exit, he was stopped by Lin Baishi on the spot.

Lin Baishi sneered at him, "Steward Lin, we have treated you well in the past three years, since you want to stand out, then you can't blame me." He shouted at the little guys left and right, "Temporarily detain Steward Lin, don't let this matter out to Lin Long, that dead girl, if you let me know who has broken his mouth, see if I don't tear his mouth?" ”

The ruthless words made everyone present tremble.

Lin Nan looked at Lin Baishi with wide eyes, and was about to argue, when a rag was stuffed into his mouth, and then he was forcibly pulled down.

Lin Gang and Lin Chuang just watched coldly.

Lin Yu's slanted glance, this Lin Long's father died and his mother remarried, in fact, it is not too fearful, it is strange that she has a father who was an official, and he is indeed much stronger than Lin Gang and Lin Chuang, will the Ye family look down on her because of this? This was what worried her the most all the way back.

Lin Qiong, the second room maid of the Lin family, who was eavesdropping outside the hall, quietly retreated, walked back to her aunt's house, and told her aunt everything she had overheard.

"Auntie, do you think I have a chance?" Lin Qiong looked hopeful, she was also fifteen years old, the same age as Lin Long, and she was also the daughter of the Lin family.

Aunt She, who was weaving, glanced at her daughter, "With such a family background, will you be a concubine?" ”

This basin of cold water was poured down, Lin Qiong knew that she had completely stopped cooking, and counted with her fingers, among the five girls of the same age, she was the only one who was a concubine, and she had no chance to be in front of the iceman at all.

With her eyes rolling, she sat down and poured a glass of cold water to drink, as if thoughtful.

In the past two days, Lin Long has been busy to death, and he has taken care of the medicine that his younger brother will use in the next period of time.

Then the prepared rouge was sent to the previous guests, calculated the back and forth, in addition to the cost, but also earned as much as three taels of silver, under the yellow light at night, her abacus crackled.

Aunt Green, who was sewing clothes, saw her smile on her face, "How much silver do we have on hand now?" ”

Lin Long stopped, looked at Aunt Green, and reported to her, "Except for the medicine for Brother Dong, plus the Lin Lin who bought lard for Mama Su, oh, by the way, I will also save the living expenses, and we can save twelve taels of silver this time." "I handed a tael of silver to Aunt Green.

Aunt Green took over the living expenses, she has always been in charge of these trivial matters, and looked at the silver in her hand, "This time I can finally breathe a sigh of relief, the family has spare money and don't panic, I will go to buy Fengshengde's rouge for Sister Qi tomorrow, she has been reading for a long time." ”

Lin Long pressed her hand, "Don't, I've already given her another 'salary'." "Bite the word salary, and make it clear that if you want to give money to your sister, you have to have a name.

Aunt Green was stunned for a moment, knowing that Lin Long didn't want to spoil Lin Qi, so she hurriedly responded "Eh" and wrapped the living expenses with a towel, which was the food money for a period of time in the future. "By the way, how is the governor's daughter's face?"

Lin Long had to go to the governor's yamen once a day, so he naturally knew the freckles on Zheng Nanzhu's face well, so he smiled and said: "The effect is much better than we imagined, then Mrs. Zheng is polite and grateful to me now, but for the effect to be significant, it will take a while." ”

When Aunt Green heard this, she folded her palms and recited "Amitabha Buddha", with a relaxed face.

Mama Su came in and said with a smile: "Girl, I just boiled the bath water and put it in your house, you go and wash it." ”

Lin Long responded, wrapped the remaining silver, and then took it back to the room, hiding it under the dark bricks in the ground under the bed, she didn't deliberately hide these actions from Aunt Green, so when the latter came in, she didn't even look back. The only place where the silver is hidden is not to be revealed to Lin Qi for fear that she will take advantage of her inattention to take the money and buy all the rouge of Fengshengde.

"Sister Long, I'll wipe your back......" Aunt Green took out Lin Long's change of clothes, tested the water temperature, and rolled up her sleeves.

Lin Long hurriedly said: "I'm not a child, Erniang will go out first, I'll wash it myself." "Aunt Green is still the daughter of the former official family, in fact, she has long been able to be independent.

Aunt Green saw her resolute attitude, so she no longer insisted, sighed and turned out to close the door, and when the family situation is better in the future, she still has to buy two more girls to wait, so that Lin Long's sisters and brothers can live such a hard life, she feels very sorry for her dead husband.

Lin Long took off the coat on his body, untied the hairband on his head, combed his hair with a comb, and then approached the bathtub with his pocket, stretched out his hand to test the temperature of the water, and felt good. She raised her hand to untie the strap of the pocket, and suddenly, she was shocked to see that there was suspected blood on the white pocket.

Reach out and touch it, put it under your nose and smell it, there is a fishy sweet smell, where does this come from? Another drop dripping from above, she looked up suddenly, there was someone on the roof beam?

This look up met the sparkling eyes of the man who was hiding on the beam and could only see the figure, how did this person jump in?

After the shock, she opened her mouth to shout, "Come-"

Before she could shout a single word, the man in black on the roof suddenly jumped down, covering her mouth with great speed and covering her voice for help.

Lin Long opened his mouth wide and bit the hand of the man in black, looking at this hand, she knew that this was a man, or a tall man, kicked his foot back, and made a movement of struggling to save himself.

The man in black snorted, dodged to avoid her attack, his palm hurt for a while, he was afraid that he would be bitten and bleed, but he didn't expect this girl to be as strong as a little tigress, and someone else would have fainted.

Lin Long's mind was blank, and before she was afraid, she thought more about how to save herself, but her strength was small, this man was too much taller than her, and she was dragged to the window by him after struggling twice.

"Don't scream, I'll go." The man in black lowered his voice to signal, his eyes did not squint at her disheveled appearance, but covering the fat and jade skin under her mouth and fingers still made him lose his mind slightly.

Lin Long tilted his head back and looked at him with a pair of eyes, and his movements were stunned, she couldn't tell whether this person was true or false, but this voice was unusually familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere.

Seeing that she was silent, the man in black thought she had compromised and was about to try to let go of the hand covering her mouth.

At this time, there seemed to be a commotion outside, and Aunt Green's panicked voice came in, "A few officials, what's the matter with you?" It's my daughter taking a shower inside, you can't force your way in......"

Lin Long glanced at the man in black, saw him frowning, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and finally remembered who this person was.

Lin Long weighed the shape, but lowered his voice and said, "I'll help you dodge, and the favor I owed you before will be written off." ”
