Chapter 31: Persuasion (3)

When they passed by, Ling Jingxian glared at Ling Jingshu angrily.

Ling Jingshu was full of worries, and she didn't have the leisure to be aware of Ling Jingxian's inexplicable provocation, and quickly stepped into the Yonghetang and asked the old lady Ling to say goodbye.

Old Lady Ling just sulked, and her tone was a little hard: "Sister Shu, what is the important thing for you to come?" ”

Ling Jingshu sensitively caught the word "again", and then thought of the disgraced appearance of the Yue family and Ling Jingxian, and guessed a little about the situation just now: "Did the second aunt and cousin Xian say something just now, which made grandmother unhappy?" ”

Old Lady Ling snorted lightly, her tone full of unhappiness: "It's not a big deal, the two of them want to go to work with your second uncle." As long as the two of them open their mouths to plead, I won't make it difficult for me to say anything about this little thing. just beating around the bush in front of me, really treating me like an old fool! ”

As the oldest person in the Ling family, with the highest status and the highest status, Old Lady Ling's temper is naturally not much smaller. Don't look at the kindness and kindness of the faction on weekdays, once the real fire starts, all the sons and daughters-in-law have to listen to the training with trepidation.

Ling Jingshu came to find Mrs. Ling today, and she also had something very important to ask for. Only when Old Lady Ling nodded could what she wanted become a reality. I wanted to coax the old lady Ling to be happy, and immediately responded: "The second aunt is too undisciplined to act like this. Grandmother has always been kind-hearted, as long as she sincerely asks for it, there is no reason not to agree. ”

It sounds much more pleasing to the ear.

Old Lady Ling's mood was much smoother, and her tone was much softer: "That's it, don't talk about these bad things." Sister Shu, you came to me for something to say? ”

Ling Jingshu didn't beat around the bush, and replied with a frank face: "Yes, the granddaughter has very important things to say to her grandmother, and these words can only be heard by the grandmother. Would you like to ask Grandmother to let Mo Kui and them all step down first? ”

Your own family should be so straightforward!

Old Lady Ling nodded happily and ordered Mo Kui and the others to step back

There are only two people left in the huge Yonghe Hall, Mrs. Ling and Ling Jingshu.

Old Lady Ling smiled: "What's important, you can always say it now!" ”

"I'm here today for Ah Xiao's business," Ling Jingshu said what she had said to Ling Wuye before.

Old Lady Ling was still smiling at first, but gradually her expression became solemn, and when she heard about the Imperial Doctor Wei in the capital who was good at treating incurable diseases, she couldn't help but be moved: "Sister Shu, are you telling the truth?" Is it possible for that Wei Taiyi to cure Ah Xiao's eyes? ”

"Whether it can be cured or not is still uncertain. However, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, I want to take Ah Xiao to give it a try. Ling Jingshu's eyes flashed with determination: "I have already asked my father for permission, and I will go to the capital with my uncle's family in a few days." I hope my grandmother agrees. ”

Old Lady Ling thought for a moment and said slowly: "If you can cure Ah Xiao's eyes and let him see again, it will naturally be a great joy." However, as long as you accompany Ah Xiao to the capital, I really can't rest assured. You are a weak woman who has never been far away, and it is always inconvenient to show up after a long journey. It's better to let your father lead Ah Xiao there, and you can stay by your grandmother's side with peace of mind. ”

As soon as the words fell, Ling Jingshu knelt down with a plop: "Grandmother thinks about me like this, I am really moved in my heart. However, I had a reason to go. ”

Why do you have to go?

Old Madam Ling was stunned for a moment, and then quickly said, "If you have anything to do, just tell your grandmother, you don't have to kneel." ”

At this time, Mrs. Ling, in front of the younger generation, was still the kind and amiable grandmother. There was also a bit of pity for Ling Jingshu.

Only when it comes to the threshold that threatens the survival of the family, will the indifferent and ruthless face of the heart as hard as iron be revealed.

Ling Jingshu sneered in her heart, but there was a sad look on her face: "Grandmother, I have a strange disease. I wanted to accompany Ah Xiao to the capital, not only to treat his eyes, but also to cure my illness secretly. ”

Old Lady Ling was taken aback, and forgot to tell Ling Jingshu to get up: "What did you say?" What strange illness do you have? ”

Ling Jingshu didn't need to deliberately pretend, she also showed a bitter expression: "Except for Ah Xiao, I can't get close to any man, I will have a strange reaction when I touch my fingers, my whole body will cramp, I will vomit with nausea." ”

Old Lady Ling: ""

What kind of strange disease is this? What does it mean not to be near any man?

Old Lady Ling looked stunned and asked in disbelief, "What you said is true?" When did this happen? ”

Ling Jingshu bit her lip, her eyes were full www.biquge.info of water, and her voice was slightly choked: "Granddaughter doesn't dare to hide it from her grandmother." It's a strange disease that was discovered a few days ago. ”

"You girl, why didn't you say this kind of thing earlier." Old Lady Ling frowned: "Hurry up and talk carefully, there must be no concealment." ”

Ling Jingshu looked like she didn't know how to open her mouth, tears rolling in her eyes.

After thinking about it for a while, Old Lady Ling guessed the reason why Ling Jingshu was so unspeakable: "Are you ashamed to open your mouth because a man has touched your hand?" ”

It is inappropriate for a girl who has not left the cabinet to be alone with a man in private, and intimate behaviors such as shaking hands are even more out of line.

Ling Jingshu's eyes were red and she nodded.

Old Lady Ling was so shrewd, she guessed who the other party was almost immediately: "It's Lu Hong!" ”

Ling Jingshu lowered her head in shame and said, "It's not just him, but also the hidden cousin." ”

Old Lady Ling: ""

Old Madam Ling seemed to be choked by something, and only after a while did she squeeze out a few words: "There are no outsiders here, if you have anything to say, just say it with confidence." Rest assured, this will never reach anyone's ears. ”

That's what I'm waiting for!

Ling Jingshu wiped her tears with her sleeve and confided in a low voice: "On my grandmother's birthday, Ah Xiao asked me to go back to Qiushui Pavilion, and after I went back, I found that Cousin Lu was also there. Under the melon field and plums, suspicion should be avoided. I felt that something was wrong with Cousin Lu, so I wanted him to leave. But not only did he refuse to go, but he also said some nonsense to me, and I was shocked and frightened, and told him to go. Excited, he rushed forward and grabbed my hand. I was sick to my stomach and threw up on the spot. ”

"Cousin Lu was probably taken aback by my reaction and quickly left. After that, the matter was not revealed. I was also ashamed to talk about it, thinking that it was probably once in a while, and I didn't pay much attention to it. ”

"Unexpectedly, yesterday my cousin came to Qiushui Pavilion again"

The next words seem to be really hard to say.

Ling Jingshu bit her lip, her pretty face flushed.

Old Lady Ling's heart sank, and she quickly guessed what was going on: "Did Ah Qian say that he was devoted to you, and also said that he wanted your aunt to propose to the Ling family?" ”

Ling Jingshu was silent.

Old Mrs. Ling knew what the result was, but she couldn't help but ask the bottom line: "What happened later?" ”

"I'm two years older than my cousin, and I've always treated him as a child, and I only have the affection for him as a cousin and brother, so I rejected him." Ling Jingshu sighed lightly: "I didn't expect him to react very violently, approaching my side, and saying that he must marry me." I was trembling all over, my stomach was churning, and I was throwing up again. ”

"One time it's an accident, and two times it's not an accident. I was panicked and scared, but I didn't dare to tell anyone about it. When I saw my father just now, I didn't have the courage to say it. In this house, the person who loves me the most is my grandmother. That's why I mustered up the courage to come to my grandmother."

Ling Jingshu's eyes turned red again as she spoke, and she raised her head to look at Old Lady Ling, her eyes were full of trust and pleading: "Grandmother, you will keep it a secret for me, right?" You'll help me, won't you? ”

Even if it is hard-hearted, it will be melted by such eyes.

What's more, Ling Jingshu grew up next to Mrs. Ling, and she was also the most favored by Mrs. Ling. Seeing Ling Jingshu so lonely and helpless, the feeling of pity in her heart suddenly came to life.

"Good boy, you can't blame you for this, you don't have to feel guilty and blame yourself." Old Lady Ling let out a long sigh and gently stroked Ling Jingshu's head: "Don't kneel yet, get up and talk, your grandmother will call the shots for you in everything." ”
