03 Gelding
"You ones will not die wellโ" the woman screamed like a pig, and the sound was heard almost throughout the backyard. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Lin Qixu looked through the cracks, it was Aunt Sun in the kitchen, with a spicy and strong temperament, although it was not easy to get along with, but she would give her a little thin noodles on weekdays.
There were a few strong men and two women.
One of them had a blue face, and he was actually the most useful Mama Xue by Zhao's side.
No wonder, Mama Fang has been by her side for the past two days. Seeing that Mama Xue's hair was messy, her clothes were disheveled, and her expression was very tired, she was obviously strong.
On the other hand, Aunt Sun, in terms of appearance, is more than one point more embarrassed than Mama Xue. But the momentum is fierce, the body is magnificent, and the voice is so loud that the entire Lin Mansion can hear it, and the key is that the spirit is head and feet.
"Sun Caiping, I have made up another dowry, and I will also guarantee your son, and he will definitely be a little guy by the young master's side in the future. What else are you not satisfied with. Mama Xue saw that Aunt Sun was restrained, and her mouth was stuffed with sackcloth, she was annoyed and tired.
Aunt Sun whined non-stop, scratching her hands and feet.
Mama Xue made a look, and someone took away the rag in Aunt Sun's mouth, and Aunt Sun cried wolf again: "Others are afraid of you Xue Fangchun, but I am not afraid!" Your son is a eunuch, and he still wants to marry my daughter, isn't my daughter a widow when she marries...... I married my daughter when my heart was rotten! โ
Aunt Sun's man is the steward of the outer courtyard, and he followed the master out on an errand. Although Mama Xue is the first leader next to Madame, Sun Caiping is not afraid of her at all, how can her own baby daughter be ruined like this.
Originally, I wanted to be angry, but the two families quietly divorced in private, not wanting Xue Fangchun to do such a thing, if it weren't for her quick eyes and caring about her daughter, her daughter would be afraid of being snatched away.
After figuring out this section, Aunt Sun looked at Mama Xue, whose face was pale and could breathe fire in her eyes, and patted the dust on her body with a smile: "You can make trouble, if your son is a castration, it will fly all over the city, hurry up and take advantage of the gap to pick a girl who has no mother's family and is honest, otherwise your son will be wasted." โ
From Lin Qixu's point of view, after Aunt Sun howled out the word "castration", the eyes of the surrounding onlookers looked at Mama Xue's eyes, and many people were whispering, that kind of pity, sympathy and schadenfreude almost drove Mama Xue crazy, and her face changed from bloodless pale to bloodless pale and white, and now the whole face has become the color of pig liver.
"Sun Caiping, don't ...... Give a shameless ...... face" The last five words were guessed by Lin Qixu.
Mama Xue gritted her teeth in anger, and her upper and lower teeth were trembling, almost squeezing out words between her teeth. Lin Qixu saw that now, he had no other interest in the tearing and competition between the two. In short, both of them have something to rely on, and in the end, I am afraid that it is the same as what Aunt Sun said, and she is tightly begging for a timid daughter-in-law who has nowhere to go.
Avoiding this place of right and wrong, Chunshen Pavilion was as quiet and comfortable as ever, Yang Yang found a little maid and picked up three bowls of golden cinnamon, and when he saw Qi Xu coming back alone, he couldn't help but hurriedly catch up.
"Miss, what's the matter?" Although Yang Yang is young and lively, he is also smart and smart. The maid who can do things next to Qixu has to stand out with a first-class look, otherwise she would have been eaten alive by the Zhao family.
Lin Qixu saw that Yang Yang's expression was full of worry, and couldn't help but smile and reassure: "It's just something that doesn't have a shadow." And Suzu, I sent her to do something else. โ
Yang Yang knew that his master didn't want to talk to her about something, so he also pursed his lips and said slowly: "The osmanthus that Miss asked Yang Yang to pick, Xiao Yue and I have picked them." โ
There are three white porcelain bowls on the small table, filled with golden osmanthus flowers, and the fragrance is overflowing.
After the younger brother was punished to kneel in the ancestral hall, he recuperated for more than half a day, and then rushed back to the school non-stop. Lin Qixu held the bowl, as long as he thought of the Zhao family, he was full of disgust and resentment, and couldn't help but think of the gold and silver double cinnamon in the Zhao family's yard, the gold is dark yellow like gold, and the silver cinnamon is as white as jade, but it is a pity that no matter how good and beautiful the scenery is, it is dyed with the taste of the Zhao family and the Chen family, Lin Qixu slowly cooled down.
"Yangyang, where is Mama Xue's son on an errand?"
Lin Qi asked suddenly, and a thin layer of broken ice floated under his eyes.
Yang Yang put away his little face and was stunned before he said: "There are two sons, the older one is on an errand in the gatehouse, and the younger one is ...... It doesn't seem to be in our house. โ
Not in the Lin Mansion?
Lin Qi stood up slowly, knocked over a few small ones, and three bowls of osmanthus came to his face. She couldn't care about it anymore, and the fragrance instantly wafted into this elegant and splendid boudoir, but Lin Qixu seemed to smell it...... The gloomy, desolate smell of medicine permeated the whole childhood, accompanied by her birth, and ended in the death of her aunt.
Mama Xue's family is the Zhao family's companion!
Her son is not on an errand in the Lin Mansion, so he naturally works in the Zhao Mansion.
Like beads rolling all over the place, only a thin thread can be strung together to form the whole story.
It's just that...... This story is too scary,
Lin Qi slowly stood up, and slowly sat on the low embroidery pier, trying to calm down the ups and downs of being too excited, she quietly smoothed all the wrinkled corners of her clothes that were wrinkled by standing up suddenly.
This move, in the eyes of Yang Yang, is too incredible.
"Xiaoyue, you clean up." Osmanthus cake can't be done, she still wants to point to satisfy her cravings. Yang Yang carefully squatted in front of Lin Qixu, helped her straighten her dress, and asked in a low voice, "Miss, what's wrong with Mama Xue?" โ
The corners of Lin Qixu's lips had a smile that seemed to be smiling: "Little son...... It seems to have hurt the root of his life. โ
Yang Yang is already sixteen years old, so he naturally understands this, so he can't blush and be shy, and hurriedly says, "What does this have to do with Miss?" โ
Lin Qixu didn't speak, got up and went to the elm dresser in the corner, and glanced at the figure in the bronze mirror. She is already a big girl, no longer the little girl who used to cry when she looked in the mirror.
The dresser was simply ugly, with many corners worn out, the paint on the carved areas had lost its color, and the small brass rings on the drawers had long since lost their original luster. Lin Qixu touched the third layer, and then gently pulled it out, there were several small silver tickets in it, a small box of gold nudes obtained from the elders during the New Year's Festival, she picked up a silver ticket and closed the cuffs, her face was plain like a batch of fine silk, and there were no wrinkles in the half.
"You come with me."
Lin Mansion is located in an excellent location in Suzhou City, covering a wide area, because the population in the mansion is thin, there are many precious flowers and trees everywhere. Approaching the beginning of autumn, it is still a group of purple and red, the climate in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is evergreen all year round.
Lin Qixu's pace was more urgent than before, and his expression was different from the usual gentle and tranquil, but he pretended to be calm and pursed his slender lips.
"Miss, what's wrong?" Yang Yang is very worried about his own young lady.
Lin Qixu didn't have time to pay attention to her, and was full of thoughts about Heling. and Ling Yangyang have been with her for five years, loyal and loyal, and she has always treated them well. Although it is said that it is to win people's hearts, but people get along with each other, and after a long time, there will naturally be a sense of affection.
And the bell looks medium-to-top, not too outstanding, but the temperament is careful and gentle, and he is already eighteen. Many grandmothers have asked her about it, Lin Qixu asked what He Ling meant, and He Ling was just shy and made it clear.
The younger siblings in the family are still young and need help, and they don't want to get married, so they plan to reach their twenties and promise a competent steward.
Lin Qixu values her and plans to choose a family affair for her before she gets married, and marry her husband as a companion.
"Yangyang, and Ling maybe, can't come back."
Lin Qixu was in a heavy mood and said hoarsely, "Mama Xue's youngest son originally said that Aunt Sun is the daughter, but now how can Aunt Sun be willing to marry this family business again." And the bell, I'm afraid I'm going to hit the muzzle. โ
Yang Yang was stunned at that time.
Passing through another archway, it is the Hanging Flower Gate.
Yang Yang knelt abruptly on the gravel road, kowtowed, and choked up: "Miss, don't ask for anything next to the slave, just with the bell, and hope that Miss will look at the old love and don't abandon her." โ
The world is impermanent, and the world is difficult.
Lin Qixu's face was pale and he didn't say a word.
She didn't want to deceive Yang Yang, so she didn't want to make a promise.
My aunt has lived in the Lin Mansion for more than ten years, and naturally there are servants who have received her favor. Lin Qixu rubbed the crumpled silver ticket in his cuffs and walked to the eaves of the verandah by the flowerbed, where a man dressed as a lazy steward leaned on the threshold.
"But don't you care?" Her voice was gentle.
Steward Mo had a toothpick in his mouth, and he was a little angry, and said vaguely: "Well, the villain is." The eldest lady ...... "It seems that only now can I see the graceful figure in front of me, it is actually the eldest lady of the Lin Mansion."
He was so busy standing up and saluting, and after some hurry, his expression became a little more cautious, and said, "Is there a place to get the villain?" โ
Lin Qixu didn't want to talk nonsense: "Heling is the big girl next to me, and she treats me quite loyally." Just now, I sent her to Zhao Mansion to inquire about the news, and now that I think about it, there is a lot of uneasiness. I hope I don't care about things, and I have worked hard. The silver ticket was skillfully stuffed into the palm of Mo Steward's hand.
The flower beds are well maintained and pleasing to the eye, and begonias and camellia are blooming one after another, stretching out their full and fresh postures, and the bright light can be described as full of red and purple. Steward Mo's expression was a little heavy when he accepted the silver ticket, and he quickly raised his head and said, "Miss is at ease, since she is entrusted by her benefactor, she will do her best." Please Miss return to the Spring Pavilion first and wait for news. โ
Immediately stopped talking nonsense, explained a few words to the little guy next to him, and hurried to the outer house.
Yang Yang was already crying on the side, Lin Qixu patted the back of her hand, handed over the silk handkerchief embroidered with spring flowers, and said, "Wipe it." It is useless to cry. โ
There is only a touch of Yang Yang's back, depressed and strong.
It's sad, but there's still measure. She quickly wiped away her tears and quickly followed.
Until it was dark, the little guy sent there never brought back the news of Mo Guan. Lin Qixu picked up the bamboo chopsticks and flickered with the food, her thoughts were very heavy, she was not only worried about the bell, but both glory and loss.
Zhao has been much more restrained than before over the years, but this does not mean that her head suddenly opens up, or her heart has become compassionate and soft. As the old saying goes, "Dogs can't change their", what Zhao once did was by no means a faint word that could be fooled by a word blinded by lard, it was really vicious and mean, and a femme fatale.
How could she expect such a woman to be generous, tolerant and reasonable.
It's just that Lin Yanxuan returned to Huainan to take up her post, she didn't have anything to do, and it was not good to make things difficult for their sisters and brothers, coupled with the persuasion of her mother's family, the means were transformed from the most superficial and vicious knives to hidden arrows that could not be prevented and penetrated into every corner.
And Ling and Yangyang, she has always been disgusted, and she has been trying her best to get rid of it.
This time he and Lingruo bumped into the muzzle of the gun, and Lin Qixu thought of the tragic death of his mother and sister, and his chest was blocked.
"Miss, don't worry about asking to see you outside the door." Yang Yang ran in almost in tears.
"Please." didn't care about any rules, she hurriedly put down the bamboo chopsticks and simply straightened her dress.
The screen was too late to be erected, Lin Qixu looked at Mo Guan who was wet from the rain and his shoulders and the corners of his clothes, and saw that his brows were frowning, his face was full of entanglement, and his heart sank heavily.
Mo Guan knelt down heavily, and said sadly: "The slave has the trust, and the bell girl is afraid that it is ......" He paused, and then gritted his teeth and said: "The name has been ruined." โ
The last word was settled, Yang Yang had covered his mouth tightly, knelt on the ground softly, and cried.
Lin Qixu held the rosewood octagonal table, letting the sharp flying horns poke into the soft palm, and his heart was so cold that he was almost numb.
