Chapter 290: Frivolous
"Xiaoyu, you're here too, come to your aunt's side." After all, she was raised by herself, and now that there is no serious conflict, Mrs. Lin saw that Lin Yu was still very affectionate, and hurriedly beckoned her to come and sit beside her.
Lin Yu hurriedly sat beside her, and Mrs. Lin took Cuiru's child over to show him for a while, the child who was full of moon was much better looking than when he was born, and he was also fat, which showed that he was well taken care of. This child looks like Cuiru, and he can see that his eyebrows and eyes are soft and delicate, and when he saw Lin Yu looking over, he opened his big black eyes, and he actually pulled the corners of his mouth at Lin Yu.
"Well, are you laughing?" Lin Yu asked hesitantly, it seems that a child who has just completed the moon can't laugh, but it still looks very cute, and Lin Yu couldn't help but soften his voice.
"Aren't you smiling, look at your little nephew, you like people, right?" Mrs. Lin smiled toothlessly, and several female elders also joined in.
"Did you have a name?" The Duchess of Xingguo asked.
"His father didn't pay much attention to it, I named him Lu Deming, and his nickname was De'er." Old Madam Lin hugged her grandson and teased. "De'er, De'er, it would be nice if I could have a few more grandchildren, the more I raise this child, the more I like it."
"If you are so young, you will laugh, and when you grow up, you will definitely be a smart and handsome person." An aunt of the Lu family said with a smile, although Mrs. Lin knew that she was flattering, she was also very happy.
"I borrow your good words, if only this kid could really become a weapon.
Lin Yu saw that Old Madam Lin was so happy, although her face was not revealed, she sighed a little in her heart. If what Yin Susu said is right, this child must be the son of a moth, not the son of the Lu family. But Yin Susu really didn't have the need to lie to herself. Should it be Lu Pingzhi's current newspaper or Cuiru's revenge? These people are happy now, and if the truth is revealed in the future, I don't know what will happen to the road?
Lin Yu sighed in his heart, in the end, he didn't have the interest before, and Mrs. Lin didn't pay much attention to it, and talked to a few grandmother-level ladies about the grandmother's scriptures. Lin Yu was tired of fighting with Zhang Wan'er, so he only sat and listened without interjecting on the side, which was also considered to increase his experience in how to take care of children.
For a while. Mrs. Lin couldn't get enough of it, and when she saw Lin Yu sitting there, she smiled. "I know that you and the Zhang family are not getting along, and I don't want to go forward, why don't you go and see Cuiru? Inde'er was not nominally born to her, and she can't show up now. There must be some loss. ”
Lin Yu nodded. Just as he was about to speak, he saw a little girl running in in a hurry.
"Running in such a hurry, be careful that your teeth knock out." Old Madam Lin's eldest girl saw that she was in such a hurry and reprimanded.
"Old lady, old lady." The little girl didn't pay attention to the reprimand, but said directly, "Mother Hu called me over and said that Lord Ninghe is here." ”
"Lord Ninghe?" Old Madam Lin was stunned. quickly reacted, and his face became even more unsightly. "Isn't it Qingqing?"
Isn't it Qingqing, Lin Yu really didn't expect her to be close today, Qingqing and Zhang Wan'er's feud is not small, she is not as gentle as Lin Yu's personality. Although he has a good heart, Qingqing's mouth is more powerful, which can be called a model of knife mouth tofu heart.
Zhang Wan'er won't say it, she won't be able to become a good-tempered person in her next life, even before, although she also helped manage the full moon banquet of Lu Pingzhi's eldest son, she couldn't help but stab Lin Yu in the end. Qingqing's identity is not as good as before, in the past, Qingqing was a maid from the Zhenyuan Marquis's Mansion, no matter how annoyed she was, she couldn't give up three points to Zhang Wan'er, the lady of the Zhenyuan Marquis, but now she is the county lord of the Eight Classics, and Zhang Wan'er is just a Hou Ye's wife who has no fate, but Zhang Wan'er has the home advantage after all, and the two are really going to make trouble, and who wins and who loses is really a problem.
Mrs. Lin was even more anxious than Lin Yu, there was such a scene in the Lu family before, and she almost gave up her cheeks to give a generous gift in vain, because Zhang Wan'er was even more annoyed, and shouted for the Lu family to return the money. Although Qingqing sent someone to say that she didn't care, who knows what she thought in her heart? Do you really not care, fake don't care?
Therefore, Mrs. Lin was very worried, although she sent the post over, who would have thought that Qingqing would come over in person? But she is not there yet, let Zhang Wan'er act, who knows if she will offend Qingqing even more? Hu's mother sent someone over, which is already very clear about this. The girl also said that Zhang Wan'er did quarrel with Ning and the county lord, you said a word to me, the anger is getting bigger and bigger, Hu's mother persuaded two words and couldn't persuade her, they are all official daughters, and she is not a wet nurse to intervene much, so she asked Mrs. Lin to come over.
Mrs. Lin was anxious when she heard this, and her grandson didn't care, she threw it to her tits, and hurriedly went forward, just when she heard Zhang Wan'er raise her voice, "What are you doing, it's just for my maid!" Do you really think that you are some kind of serious county lord? What are you arrogant in front of me?! ”
Before she could say a word, Mrs. Lin, who walked into the house, changed her face greatly, gasped, stumbled under her feet, and almost tripped over the steps. You can imagine the looks of all the guests in the house, and I am afraid that they will all gasp. Although Lu said vaguely before that Qingqing had been a maid ring before, in the end, he only dared to insinuate and did not dare to mention it openly, others may also recognize Qingqing, and some heard some rumors, who dared to mention it openly.
But Zhang Wan'er dared, she didn't dare to say such a thing openly, and she dared to say that Qingqing was just like a slave, no matter what happened to Qingqing, it was also the biological daughter of King Qi and the niece of His Majesty. She dared to say this in public, a person who despised the royal family was indispensable, and maybe there would be a big disrespect.
Lin Yu is really angry and funny, with her relationship with Qingqing, the reason for her anger is not to mention, and the reason for being funny is also obvious - I don't know if Zhang Wan'er is ignorant and fearless, or is her courage really far beyond ordinary people, even if she quarrels with Qingqing, some things should be said and some things should not be said, some things can be said, and some things can't be said, is it really an era of freedom of speech?
The problem is that US imperialism, which claims freedom and democracy all day long, searches for a pressure cooker on the Internet, and maybe the FBI will come to your door! What's more, you are now in feudal, backward antiquity?
Lin Yu had this expression. Old Madam Lin's face was even worse, and Lu Pingzhi's face who had just learned the news was even more exciting. Old Madam Lin couldn't wait to teleport to a minute ago, and then slapped Zhang Wan'er twice with big-eared melon seeds before Zhang Wan'er spoke. Lu Pingzhi regretted that he persuaded Zhang Wan'er to preside over this full moon ceremony, so that he had a good reputation and at least improved his reputation.
It's good right now, Zhang Wan'er worked hard for a long time, and her efforts were all over the place in a word. There was also the anger of the Qi King family that the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion had to face afterwards, the emperor's punishment and the pointing and pointing of the outside world, and his head buzzed all of a sudden.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry. Go and inform your mother, no, no, bring your lady out. Let's just say that she is not well yet, and her spirit is not normal. Lu Pingzhi couldn't hide the expression on his face, and even spoke a little incoherently.
It's a pity that the words have already been spoken. No matter what, it's too late. Old Madam Lin tightly held the hand of Lin Yu who came over to support her. Said to Lin Yu with a confused face.
"Xiaoyu, you must help persuade Qingqing to dissipate her anger! And your stepfather's side, you must help your aunt! ”
It's a pity that Lin Yu is non-sticky, nothing sticks to his hands, and besides, he is a person who does such good things, I'm afraid he won't help Zhang Wan'er, the previous grudges have been settled, but now he just hasn't torn his face.
Therefore. Lin Yu just sighed and said, "Such a thing." It's really hard to deal with, how many guests are here today, aunt, you said, in front of everyone's eyes, can you hide it? Aunt should go and stop Zhang, who knows what she will say after the Dao? ”
Mrs. Lin sighed deeply, feeling that what Lin Yu said was quite reasonable, as soon as Zhang's temper came up, she was completely irrational when she spoke and did things, and she didn't dare to say or do it, saying that she was bold and reckless or promoted her, and she still hurried to make up for it.
Therefore, Old Madam Lin took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to go inside, and when she came in, it was needless to say that the subtle expressions of contempt mixed with sympathy and even admiration of the other guests were needless to say. Mrs. Lin didn't pay attention to it, and looked directly at the middle, a pair of protagonists who quarreled were among them, Zhang Wan'er was standing in the middle, her face was half red and half white, Qingqing was okay, with a sneer on her face, although annoyance was inevitable, it was normal.
"Although the county lord has a bad fate and has been a girl, it is not your Zhang Wan'er's girl, who doesn't know who you Zhang Wan'er is, as far as your moral character and virtue, are you still worthy of being a girl? Yahuan is also a human being, and you are also worthy of being a human being for the things you do? ”
Although Zhang Wan'er has a bad temper, she is not good at being reasonable when quarreling, and what she is best at is blindly playing tricks. Qingqing has been a girl for ten years, and there are a lot of open and secret battles between Yahuan. In a big company like Houfu, it is too common to play office politics, Qingqing has gone from a small girl ring from an outsider to a personal big girl ring next to the old lady, what does it mean that Sang scolds Huai, insinuating that it will not? He said something infuriating, and he still had a smile on his face.
In other words, Yahuan has been a person, but can't she be the county lord? So the difficult years have successfully stepped all the way through, not to mention that now they occupy the right time, place and people, and the identity is occupied?
Seeing Qingqing say this, Zhang Wan'er was about to speak, but was grabbed by Mrs. Lin and gave Zhang Wan'er a slap.
"Get the hell out of here! Light green, crimson and send Madame back to rest, she is not quite conscious,"
Zhang Wan'er was about to speak, but she was covered by Crimson Seeing the opportunity, and united with several daughters-in-law Yahuan to pull her out of the room. Light Green also said, "Madam, don't talk, recuperate your spirit, let's call you a doctor right away!" ”
Zhang Wan'er whined twice, but she couldn't break free and was forcibly driven out, leaving Qingqing and Mrs. Lin looking at each other, and there was a circle of aristocratic ladies standing next to her as extras, and Lin Yu was standing in the front row, ready to see if the situation was going to interfere.
"I'm really embarrassed, Zhang's brain was a little unclear when she was sick before, I saw that she was fine, so I asked her to receive guests, who knew that Lu Daoning said a few words to the county lord, she couldn't stand it, and she was a little unclear."
Old Madam Lin asked someone to carry Yin Susu out, and she explained to the surrounding guests whether it was compensation or not.
The onlookers actually admired Mrs. Lin in their hearts, first, she was very decisive in handling affairs, and when she came in, she asked someone to take Zhang Wan'er away, which was a quick cut; On the other hand, I admire Mrs. Lin for having such a daughter-in-law who can still maintain her sanity and have the heart to deal with things.
However, there are also people whose faces are not very good-looking. Qingqing immediately sneered when she heard that Old Madam Lin alluded to Zhang Wan'er, who was guided by herself.
"I can't stand Mrs. Lin's words, everyone is here. Could it be that I couldn't trouble her first? After all, when I was in trouble, I also stayed in the Hou Mansion, and at first, for the sake of the Hou Mansion's face, I wanted to swallow my anger, but unfortunately some people didn't let me. ”
Someone next to him chuckled, "No, Zhang's spoke first." How can you blame the county lord. ”
But some people wanted to stammer, and deliberately told the truth at the time, and most people did it out of the consideration of not being guilty. None spoke, but most of them had a look of approval on their faces.
Mrs. Lin and Lin Yu had just arrived, and they didn't know the scene at that time, but others saw it. Zhang Wan'er said a few words at first. Qingqing pretended not to hear. However, in the end, out of ignorance to provoke Zhang Wan'er, she really didn't care about her, so she didn't know what to do.
But. Qingqing's ignorance really angered Zhang Wan'er, and the more she spoke, the more unpleasant it became, and Zhang Wan'er's bad temper was well known to everyone. Qingqing, her temper is not good, so she naturally will not calm down, and speak to Zhang Wan'er gently.
Even if Qingqing has a good temper, she can't let this matter go, and the Marquis of Zhenyuan Mansion has been her old master in the end. If she retreats at this time, others will think she is cowardly. I'm afraid that there will be people who don't have long eyes to worry about in the future.
Mrs. Lin didn't understand, but she was still a little annoyed with Qingqing, Zhang Wan'er hadn't been bad lately, she thought that if Qingqing hadn't teased her, Zhang Wan'er would have been unable to make trouble. The key is that Mrs. Lin still can't treat Qingqing as a serious county lord in her heart.
Even if she has personally given a generous gift, she always feels in her heart that even if Qingqing becomes the county lord, she can't be very tough in front of herself, after all, she is her old master, and she didn't treat her very badly before. At this time, Zhang Wan'er spoke disrespectfully in public, although Mrs. Lin barely maintained the situation, it was impossible to be as thoughtful as after careful consideration.
Therefore, she didn't think so much when she spoke, but she regretted it as soon as she spoke. Sure enough, Qingqing refused to give up and pushed the problem onto Zhang Wan'er. However, Mrs. Lin can't argue with Qingqing anymore, the current situation, it is better to persuade Qingqing to lose her anger, and there must be no more disrespectful behavior, otherwise others will not say that Qingqing does not care about the old feelings, but will say that their Lu family is brisk.
Lu Ping was only released from thinking about punishment behind closed doors a few days ago, and became a soldier in the military department, just a little better, and he must not offend the king of Qi at this time. Of course, Zhang Wan'er's words have already offended, but they can't be deepened, it would be better if they could be smoothed out.
So, Mrs. Lin said good things with a smile on her face, and at the same time made a look at Lin Yu, if she hadn't been busy saying good things, she would have called Lin Yu over a long time ago.
Lin Yu looked at the old lady's eagerness, and was amused in her heart, Zhang Wan'er's character was known throughout the capital, although Qingqing was noisy with her, for the sake of Mrs. Lin's affection, plus the Lu family's statement on this matter was both positive and 'weighty', Qingqing Bacheng would not be angry with the Lu family.
Although she is not forgiving, in fact, Qingqing is the softest, as long as Mrs. Lin accompanies her now, pulls down a little shelf in private, and sheds a few tears, I am afraid that Qingqing may not be able to worry about Zhang Wan'er. However, since Mrs. Lin still looked down on Qingqing, she naturally would not bow her head for Zhang Wan'er, after all, she hated Zhang Wan'er very much.
However, now that Mrs. Lin's words come out, judging from Lin Yu's understanding of Qingqing, she must be extremely unhappy in her heart, and it is difficult to say how much is left of Mrs. Lin's previous relationship, after all, Mrs. Lin didn't take special care of Qingqing back then, and she just got by on her face.
However, Lin Yu still decided to interject to persuade Qingqing, and the other was to sell his favor to Mrs. Lin, after all, she was the aunt who raised Lin Ruoyu, and she was not young, so she felt some pity for the old man.
When the time comes, I am afraid that the outside world will not say more about the frivolity of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, but will say that Qingqing is bullying, and it will not sound good when the rumors come out. Qingqing herself admitted that she had been a maid, and she would already cause a lot of discussion, I am afraid that it will be discredited, some people will say that she is frank and generous, and some people will laugh at her for being cheap.
In the hearts of most people, it was nothing to be cheap, but after gaining power, it seems that it is too uneducated, after all, it was a matter of luck to be lowly, and it is a matter of character to be rampant when you gain power.
Therefore, Lin Yu came forward to persuade him, and Qingqing probably took this problem into account, so he borrowed the slope to get off the donkey. After thinking about the tone, he said a few words, and also gave Mrs. Lin a step.
However, since something like this has happened. Qingqing naturally won't stay any longer, before leaving, she greeted Lin Yu, Lin Yu only hesitated for a second, and then said goodbye to Mrs. Lin.
Old Madam Lin personally sent Qingqing out, and then turned around and did not immediately receive the guests, but sat on the small garden stone bench on the road and sighed for a long time. It is still different from the charm of Lin Yu when she first met her a year ago. She's old now.
"Old lady, why do you suddenly sigh?" The grandmother beside her also sat down next to her, "Zhang's side." Now that she has been given a hat with an unclear mind, it will not be so easy for her to take it off in the future. And if she offended the Qi Wang family, Hou Ye was afraid that she would also be very dissatisfied with her. Although the situation is difficult at the moment, in the long run. That's a good thing. ”
"It's not for Zhang's sake. I'm already too lazy to be angry with her, her temperament, even her nurse Hu's mother can't stop persuading her, and I don't have hope for her anymore. If the king of Qi is angry about this matter, it is a big deal to give up Zhang Wan'er, divorce her, and let the emperor point out a beautiful woman to enter the door, and I will be relieved. Old Madam Lin said with a sigh.
"Why is the old lady sighing like this?"
"I'm underestimating others for my own sake." Old Madam Lin said with regret, "I underestimated the Yin family. I like her to be sensible and generous. But after all, she is an orphan girl, although she is of noble birth, she has no maiden family in the end. Therefore, I did not oppose Pingzhi marrying the Zhang family to enter the door, but who would have thought that the Yin family was hooked up with the palace? ”
"And Qingqing, at the beginning, I only thought she was an ordinary girl, but she was powerful and thoughtful, Zhang Wan'er pushed her downstairs, and I haven't seen her once, who knows that she will turn into a dragon when she encounters a storm? I don't have much idea in my words today, and my face will not be worth much in front of this new county lord in the future! ”
"Who knows which cloud has rain on it?" Mama couldn't help but sigh when she heard this, "Old lady, you still have to cheer up, there is still a group of guests to receive, there are quite a few people who came today-"
In fact, although there is no host to receive them, the female guests still have something to do, and everyone is busy exchanging messages and comments, and is busy gossiping.
With such a play, today's protagonist is naturally not the eldest son of Hou Fushu who has just completed the moon, but in the entanglement between Qingqing and the Lu family. After all, there are still a few well-informed people who know that Dao Qingqing used to be a maid, and most of them are very interested in it, and then gossip about Zhang Wan'er's legendary head and don't know what is going on, and the day has passed. Old Madam Lin and Qingqing also knew that such a thing was not easy to stop, so they simply didn't care about it, and let them say whatever they wanted.
After everyone came home with a stomach full of gossip, they naturally couldn't help but tell their families, so the whole capital was boiling the next day. As Lin Yu expected, Qingqing's reputation is half discredited, Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, there are more lice, but there is a bad impression before, most of them are bad words, and there are very few good words.
King Qi was annoyed, Zhang Wan'er and the Lu family naturally needless to say, they also implicated others. Originally, because the Lu family slandered Qingqing, the fourth child of the Qi Wangfu who was imprisoned for a month was confined for an additional month, and the Lu family was also reprimanded by the housekeeper's side concubine.
However, Qingqing was also called to the King of Qi, but the King of Qi was much more gentle to this newly recognized daughter. It's just that Qingqing is too reckless, and he shouldn't have revealed this matter easily, but in front of so many people.
"I know that my father is for my good, but the fourth sister-in-law has already said that before, many people are speculating, Zhang Wan'er said that again, how can I deny it. That kind of thing, it's impossible to hide it completely, it's better to simply admit it, the hero doesn't ask where he comes from, Taizu also started from the end of the micro, not to mention that I'm just unlucky, and I was forced to sell myself into slavery in desperation. Being criticized for education, Qingqing said with a smile.
"There is some truth in your thoughts, but in the final analysis, it is still the Zhang family that is not good, and he dares to despise the royal family." King Qi thought about it and said angrily. "If it weren't for her, where would so many people criticize you?"
"That's it, everyone in the Zhang family knows the Tao in the capital, and my father doesn't have to worry about her." Qingqing smiled, "On the contrary, it has reduced the status of my father." ”
"No, this can't be left like that!" King Qi made up his mind, "You couldn't help her before, but now that you are the county lord, how can you not let her pay a price?" (To be continued......)
