Chapter Ninety-Four
Cao Zhou's heart was so frightened that her heart jumped, and only then did she look at this official lady, she was really not a foolish character, she was really wrong when she came to this trip, and when she thought of going to prison, she was immediately afraid, and hurriedly said: "Mrs. Hou, I made a mistake about this, this Geng post is...... Be...... I took the ...... of the third lady of the Lin family."
After thinking about it, she still hoped that she would not be held accountable according to the previous words of the third lady of the Lin family.
As soon as Lin Yushi heard this, his heart that was originally a little worried suddenly let go, no matter what, with such a sentence, this matter can no longer involve himself, and he can also explain to his husband, and it will not hinder the reputation of the family.
"If you get it wrong, you can push it off?" Ye Zhong slapped the table angrily again, "You almost ruined the reputation of my future daughter-in-law by talking nonsense in my door, this matter must not be spared, come here, hand this person over to Governor Zheng, and be guilty of slandering the girl's reputation." β
Cao Zhou's feet suddenly weakened and fell to the ground, why doesn't Mrs. Hou plan to let her go? "Madam, Madam, ...... you" Seeing the ruthlessness in Ye Zhong's eyes, he shuddered again, and finally could only look at Lin Long for help, "Miss Lin, you can't stand idly by, my son also saved your brother, and he ...... you kindly"
Lin Long just kept silent with red eyes, she hadn't let go of Cao Zhou's three or two troublemakers so generously, thinking of her hatefulness, her head was even more turned to the side, "One yard for another, you can't use Dr. Cao as a raft...... "Don't show this old woman a little bit of power, she will be entangled in the future, and only herself will suffer."
"It's her, it's her, she gave me this idea......" After not being rescued from Lin Long, Cao Zhou pointed at Lin Yu and shouted.
Lin Yu's face turned pale, and he stood in place panting and retorted: "Upside down, who will believe your words, didn't you admit that you stole this Geng post just now?" Now they are splashing dirty water on me, how can it be justified? β
Ye Zhong glanced at Lin Yu sternly, this woman is a-stirring stick, she definitely did such a thing after talking nonsense in front of her, she almost wavered in believing this bastard's words just now, and now she still regrets it in her heart. However, Lin Yu is Lin Long's third aunt, and after the Lin family's sisters are killed, if the woman is sent to prison, the reputation of the Lin family will be over, and in the end, it will hurt the reputation of Lin Long and the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion.
"Someone, still don't do it?"
Hearing his wife's scolding, everyone stopped standing stupidly, hurriedly stepped forward to hold Cao Zhou's limbs, sealed her mouth with a handkerchief, and carried the struggling chubby Cao Zhoushi out of the hall.
Ye Zhongshi exhaled lightly, took a sip of tea cup, and looked at the incense rafters on the side, "You go to the governor's yamen and learn what happened here with Mrs. Zheng, she will know how to deal with it." β
The rafter hurriedly stood up and curtsied, "Yes, ma'am." β
Lin Long glanced at the incense rafters, the incense rafters nodded secretly, the two of them tacitly, Lin Long really put his mind at ease at this point, there are incense rafters in the past, don't worry that Mrs. Zheng will not rectify this Cao Zhou clan well.
Lin Bai felt that Ye Zhong was still displeased, and hurriedly said: "This is just a misunderstanding, Mrs. Hou, it is all a dereliction of duty on our aunts......"
"It's really a dereliction of duty." Ye Zhongshi didn't say kind words to her, and put down the teacup heavily, "You should also know that if our Ye Lin family is going to be in-laws, you can't lose face here, what kind of majestic person was your father-in-law Lin University in the past?" How did you come up with the descendants of you moths? I was saddened by the fact that I was a scholar of the forest. The more he said, the more angry he became, "This marriage is not the right one, and I have always been courteous to take care of your family's face." Glancing at Lin Long, his tone was a little softer, "Fortunately, your Lin family is not hopeless, Sister Long is not bad, and she is also worthy of my family, so I am also satisfied with this marriage, you will act in the future and pay attention to me, don't make such a shameful thing again." β
Lin Long didn't feel good to hear such words, his fingers secretly clutched the chair handle tightly without a trace, and sure enough, the unequal family background was half shorter than the family out of thin air, this had to be Ye Zhong's family, she saved her life, in exchange for a few words that she still listened to, as for the Ye family in the capital, I am afraid that it will be more difficult to speak.
Marriage was originally a good marriage, but now in her place, she feels that it has changed.
Lin Bai and Lin Yu both felt extremely embarrassed, and both replied: "Of course, I will definitely not lose face ...... two families."
Ye Zhong did just that, and waved his hand to ask them to leave quickly, the more these two women looked at it, the more they couldn't get on the stage.
Lin Yu took the opportunity to say: "Mrs. Hou, since you have to take care of your face, should my sister Lin be put back?" She's still sitting in prison......"
Before she finished speaking, Ye Zhongshi interrupted her, "I don't care about this matter." However, she deliberately glanced at Lin Long secretly.
Lin Yu was shocked, she wouldn't have misunderstood Ye Zhong's glance, this meant that Mrs. Hou handed over the execution power to Lin Long, and Lin Long was the one who had the final say in this matter.
Lin Bai didn't look so carefully, for fear that this Xiangyang Hou Lady would attack again, so he hurriedly pulled the somewhat rigid Lin Yu clan and retreated.
As soon as the two of them arrived outside, there was no Ye Zhong's terrifying gaze, and Lin Bai shook off Lin Yu's hand, "What are you stunned, hurry back." β
Lin Yu rarely refuted.
The two of them left the Ye family's courtyard at a very fast speed.
Ye Zhongshi glanced at Lin Long, who was sitting there, looked at her back, there was a little guilt in her eyes, she stepped forward, "Accompany me to the garden for a walk, how about it?" β
When Lin Long heard her invitation, she didn't refuse, she was helped up by the maid next to her, and followed her two steps behind Ye Zhong's family, she still knew this kind of etiquette.
After spring in the garden, it is still purple and red at this time, and the flowers are full of flowers, and in terms of the pleasant climate of Suzhou City, almost the whole year is in bloom.
The two didn't say much, after all, the previous one was a little unpleasant, and they both felt a little stuffy in their chests.
Walking to the pavilion on the water, Ye Zhong's stopped, the maid laid out the stone bench, and she pulled Lin Long over to sit down, "Although the weather is hot, the stone bench is still quite cold, the cushion will be more comfortable, is the wound still painful?" β
Qiao Zhen heard her words of concern and said, "It's a lot better, if it still hurts, how can I still visit the garden with my wife?" After a pause, she still explained again, "Mrs. Hou, about Dr. Cao, the little woman really has no personal relationship with him......"
When Ye Zhongshi heard her mention this, there was a little shame on his face, and he hurriedly held her hand and said, "Good boy, I believe in you, if you really have a relationship with him, you won't be with Brother Yao." "Rare self-examination, "Let her come into the mansion to speak, it's not that I really believe her words, but in the place where people come and go outside the mansion, if there are bad rumors going out, it will be difficult to control it, so I let her in." Such a bastard, I am indeed confused, I have heard her say for a long time, Miss Lin, you still have to blame me for this matter......"
How dare Lin Long complain about Ye Zhong's family, Mo said that the marriage is only preliminarily planned now, even if she really becomes her daughter-in-law, can this mother-in-law complain casually? Besides, she is not naΓ―ve enough to think that if she becomes a life-saving benefactor, others will worship her as a god, at least she can make a good impression and be less embarrassed in the future, which is enough.
She smiled and held Ye Zhong's hand with her backhand, her future mother-in-law said that regret at this moment may be true regret, but will she make a mistake in the future? She didn't have much certainty, but she still had to say the words, "Mrs. Hou, I really don't blame you for this, you are also deceived by her, her mouth is famous in Suzhou City, you can scold anyone who is caught, you must not blame yourself, and she is like others." β
Ye Zhong was quite surprised that Lin Long was so understanding, she used to say that she was stubborn, but now she looks at it again, she really regrets it to death at this time, and she should insist on escorting the Cao Zhou family to the official mansion when she is at the gate, so that she will not be so embarrassed in front of Lin Long.
"It's good if you can understand, our mother and mother will not have an overnight feud, you will be Brother Yao'er's daughter-in-law, and I am his mother, we are harmonious, and he doesn't have to be embarrassed by being caught in the middle."
This is a bit of a daughter-in-law's taste, Lin Long pondered Ye Zhong's words in his heart, and his face was naturally reconciled, is it difficult to go against her? As long as it is not a matter of principle and interests, why is it difficult for her to take a few more steps back? What's more, it's just a few words now?
The smile on Ye Zhong's face was even stronger, this time he was really interested in visiting the garden, and pulled Lin Long to get up again, and the two of them were quite interested.
At noon, Ye Zhong simply asked people to set up meals under the shade of the trees in the garden, and the menu was mostly Lin Long's taste, and Lin Long couldn't help but look at her in surprise.
Ye Zhongshi smiled, "How much food did you eat every day during your recuperation, how can I ignore it?" Besides, this injury was also suffered for me, so I need to care more about it. β
"The little woman's injury is really not a big deal, it's just a flesh injury, and it will be all fine in a few days." Lin Long was not pampered and arrogant, and his tone was gentle.
"No matter what the injury is, you can't take it lightly, I still expect you to be able to add me a big fat grandson after you marry Brother Yao, I only hope to hold two in three years, your body is expensive, how can you not take care of it?" Ye Zhongshi laughed rarely, of course, this is also her wish.
Lin Long's face turned red with a "brush", and she lowered her head shyly, not looking at Ye Zhong's teasing face, of course, she also hoped that she wanted to gain a foothold in the mansion gate, nothing was more important than the heir, this is the inevitable responsibility of a qualified daughter-in-law, and she can speak louder when she has a child.
Just like her biological mother, Quan, after giving birth to her brother, the grandmother who was still alive at that time began to complain about her and no longer spoke ill of her.
When Ye Xuyao came to the garden, he happened to see Lin Long hanging his head crimsonically, looking more delicate among the flowers, and his heart couldn't help but ripple.
"Mother, where are you? It's easy for me to find. He said, only to find that Lin Long's face was even more embarrassed, his eyes were even more wandering to other places, his brows were furrowed, and he was still angry? On the surface, he asked, "What are you talking about?" β
Ye Zhongshi glanced at the thin-skinned Lin Long, and didn't mention the topic of the big fat boy before, she joked with Lin Long half-truthfully, but her son couldn't, in the end, there was a difference between men and women, and Lin Long's face had to be taken into account, "It's nothing, it's just discussing the menu, by the way, why did you come back so early today?" Didn't eat out, did you? If not, sit down together. β
Ye Xuyao glanced at Lin Long suspiciously, and did not choose to sit next to his mother, but sat next to her.
Lin Long smelled the male smell on his body, and then thought about the previous topic, and subconsciously moved his fart fat away from him.
Ye Xuyao naturally noticed her small movements, and secretly reached out to hold her hand to prevent her from moving her ass again, and looked at her with a secretly warning look in her eyes, why is this all like this, she still avoids him like this?
The corners of Lin Long's mouth twitched, and he struggled uncontrollably, wanting to break free of his hand, this was still in front of Ye Zhong's family, he dared to be so arrogant, he showed her, maybe he wanted to be crooked? After experiencing Cao Zhou's incident, she also learned to be obedient.
Ye Xuyao is still the same, holding her hand and not letting go.
How shrewd are Ye Zhong's eyes? The two of them can't hide their eyes from each other, her son is really a little hot, this is still in broad daylight, holding on to other girls, what kind of system has it become? Even his fiancΓ©e was the same, he was already very tolerant when he was injured, and at this time he covered his mouth with a handkerchief and coughed a few times.
Lin Long's face was even more red, but Ye Xuyao was inappropriate, and looked at his mother, "Mother, are you infected with the wind cold?" If you are not feeling well, you should quickly find a doctor to prescribe a side medicine to eat. β
Ye Zhong was stunned, and then wanted to make a beating, scolding this bastard boy, how could he curse his mother like this? Later, thinking that Lin Long was also here, how could he save some face for his son, and said lightly: "Your mother is very good." β
"In that case, what are you coughing up? If you have phlegm in your throat, go to the pharmacy and buy some Chuanbei loquat paste and come back to flush and drink, but it also works. Ye Xuyao didn't seem to be breathable, and even raised his voice and told the bandit stone to buy some back, living in Suzhou is not as comfortable as the mansion, otherwise these commonly used medicines are available all year round in the Xiangyang Hou Mansion.
Lin Long saw Ye Zhong's black face and thought, this person next to him really dares to say. Thinking about the two mothers and sons really fighting, there is no benefit to her, and she smiled and said: "The diet is also good, I will cook a pot of medicinal porridge for Mrs. Hou another day, and drink it once or twice to see results, of course, it is good for us to be healthy if we are not sick." β
When Ye Zhongshi saw Lin Long and the mud, his face softened a little, "Or are you a caring child, what do you do to raise a child?" I didn't have to be angry half to death, I was Amitabha. After speaking, he glared at his son.
"Mother, without me, she can't be your daughter-in-law." Ye Xuyao continued to speak coldly, but his hand was gently scratching Lin Long's palm, enjoying the soft feeling.
Lin Long was stiff, her palms were afraid of itching, and others would be sensitive when they scratched it, and now she was even more afraid that others would see something wrong, so she glared at the man next to her fiercely, are you still scratching?
Ye Xuyao admitted that he liked to see her side very viciously, even if she stared at him, she was cute, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly without a trace, showing his good mood.
Lin Long clenched his hand in order to stop him, to see how he could still make a mess?
But he took advantage of the trend, interlocking his ten fingers with her, and staged an "undercurrent" drama under this stone table.
Ye Zhongshi almost wanted to touch her forehead, she really didn't have the eyes to look at it anymore, and now Yan ZΓ²ng wondered if this son had been transferred? Isn't that the son of a little old man who grew up like a little old man at a young age? This trick opened late, but it was a thousand miles a day, and even she couldn't adapt to being a mother, let alone Lin Long, who was not as strong as her son?
At this point, she really didn't blame Lin Long, after all, no one knows better than her mother's viciousness of her son?
Lin Long's smile was very reluctant, his palms were sweaty from his grip, he was good but still like a nobody, what about his cleanliness? All thrown to the country of Java?
When the maid was serving, Ye Zhongshi looked at his son again with warning, asking him to be serious and stop making trouble with Lin Long, otherwise it would be his sin to not even eat well.
When Ye Xuyao was cleaning his hands, he naturally let go of Lin Long's hand.
When Lin Long soaked her hand in lemonade, she secretly exhaled, and finally let go, and when she wiped off the water droplets on her hand, she naturally sat up straight again.
"It's your favorite dish, eat more." Ye Xuyao gave Lin Long several chopsticks and dishes.
Lin Long felt that his face was hot again, and he couldn't look at Ye Zhongshi again, so he had to bow his head and eat vegetables.
really has a son and forgets his mother, Ye Zhongshi can't help but be a little lost, until her son also gave her vegetables, she was a little overjoyed, it seems that she is still stained with the light of her future daughter-in-law, otherwise when would he be so careful?
"Mother, don't be unbalanced." Ye Xuyao could naturally feel his mother's slightly resentful gaze, "I really like others to coerce vegetables, go back to Beijing and let my father coerce him." β
"If your father can carry vegetables, the sun will rise in the west." The corners of Ye Zhong's mouth twitched, and he hurt his husband in public, and after finishing speaking, he was a little annoyed, in front of his future daughter-in-law, he couldn't say that he didn't save face for his husband, so he changed his words again, "Your father has always been busy, how can he be so careful?" As far as you will say, what is unbalanced about my mother? Miss Lin's health is not yet well, and you should take more care of her. β
"That's a good feeling, this is what my mother said." Ye Xuyao waved the maid who gave Lin Long a dish, took a few chopsticks to her, and ordered: "You eat more, don't eat so much like a kitten." β
Lin Long knew that this topic was sensitive, so he pretended to be deaf and dumb, thinking of the words that the little sister had brought from the bandits, it was no wonder that this Ye Zhong clan was so ruthless behind his back. But after listening to Ye Xuyao's concerned words, her face couldn't help but get hot again.
Ye Zhongshi saw that Lin Long was not unusual, so she could be regarded as letting go of her heart, but when she mentioned her husband, she suddenly had no appetite, and she ate the taste of the vegetables that her son coerced and chewed wax. It wasn't until Lin Long also coerced her some favorite dishes that she smiled, "Your injury is not healed yet, just let the girl on the side do this work." β
Lin Long sat down again, "How can you be so delicate?" β
After the meal, when the next person served fragrant tea, Ye Xuyao said to Lin Long casually: "Then Mrs. Cao didn't embarrass you anymore, right?" β
Originally, he had another invitation at noon, but he pushed it back, not because after receiving the news of Cao Zhou's departure, he hurried back, and he was afraid that his mother would listen to some nonsense and say heavy things to her that should not be said.
Just as a mother understands her son, so a son understands what a mother is like.
