--------------
The memories hidden deep in his mind struck sharply, tearing the scars on the bottom of his heart fiercely, revealing bloody pain.
Ling Jingshu's eyes flashed with deep self-deprecation and pain, and her chest seemed to be pressed by a boulder, almost suffocating in a dull state.
Bai Yu was the most careful and keen, and had already noticed Ling Jingshu's strangeness, and asked with concern, "Miss, what's wrong with you?" Do you feel uncomfortable somewhere? ”
Ling Jingshu trembled and stretched out her hand: "Bai Yu, let me lean on for a while." ”
She hugged Bai Yu and buried her head in Bai Yu's warm chest, her shoulders swaying slightly.
As the eldest sister, she has to protect her younger brother, try her best to compete for her grandmother's favor, and gain a firm foothold in the eyes of her stepmother, aunt and cousin.
She was meticulous and cautious, not daring to make mistakes. When encountering grievances and sadness, there was no one to talk to, so he could only lean on Bai Yu's arms and cry quietly for a while.
Bai Yu subconsciously hugged the slender body in his arms.
Listening to Ling Jingshu's forbearant low cry, Bai Yu's heart was also tightened, and she said softly: "Miss, what's wrong?" If there is anything, you might as well tell the slave and maid about it. Although the slave is powerless to share the worries of the young lady, she can always share some worries for the young lady. ”
The gentle whispers in my ears are as warm as I remember them.
Ling Jingshu's crying gradually stopped, she sat up straight, wiped her tears with her sleeve, and said slowly: "I'm fine, it's just that I'm not feeling well, just cry for a while." ”
The biggest advantage of Bai Yu is that he never rasps his tongue too much. What Ling Jingshu didn't want to say, she wouldn't ask more, and followed Ling Jingshu's words and said, "It's okay to have nothing." The young lady rested well, and the slave went to the kitchen to make some porridge. ”
The meals of the masters of the Ling Mansion were all prepared and delivered by the large kitchen. There is a kitchenette in each yard, which is convenient for boiling some hot water to make snacks and so on. It's okay to start a group alone, but you have to bear it yourself when you apply it.
Ling Jingshu's body is weak, so she should not eat too greasy and fishy food, and it is best to drink some light porridge.
Ling Jingshu also felt hungry, and nodded with a smile.
After Bai Yu left, Ling Jingshu restrained her smile and said to herself silently: Ling Jingshu, tears are of no use except for making people who feel sorry for you anxious and worried.
From now on, she will no longer cry weakly and helplessly, and will be strong in the face of the upcoming qiē
Ling Jingshu "recuperated" in the Qiushui Pavilion and lay on the bed for three days.
The population of the five-room is not small. Ling Wuye has a total of four children, the eldest son Ling Ting is from the concubine Aunt Xia, Ling Jingshu is the original Yao family's descendant, and Ling Yu is from the Li family, who is only six years old this year.
Ling Wuye is a famous person, drinking and writing poems all day long, and lingering outside without asking her how her body is. Stepmother Li was embarrassed and came once. He sat down for a moment, said a few words painlessly, and left.
Ling Ting Ling is busy reading every day, so naturally he has no time to come to see her.
Only Ling Xiao came to see her three times a day, once in the morning, noon and evening, and she came more punctually than eating.
The difference between intimacy and alienation can be seen at a glance.
Ling Jingshu didn't feel disappointed or sad. Those who treat her sincerely, she will repay with sincerity. People who don't care about her, why should she care about their words and deeds?
Old Lady Ling also sent Mo Kui twice.
Mo Kui spoke quite tactfully, implicitly suggesting that Ling Jingshu should quickly take care of her body.
There are distinguished guests in the mansion, and Ling Jingshu has been avoiding showing up, which is really not polite. Old Lady Ling didn't say anything, but she was actually a little unhappy in her heart.
Ling Jingshu didn't pretend not to understand Mo Kui's hints, and said with a smile: "Thank you Sister Mo Kui for the reminder." Speaking of which, my body is really not angry, and I have been lying on the bed for the past few days to recuperate, which makes my grandmother also worried. Please Sister Mo Kui go back and say goodbye for me, and I will go to greet my grandmother tomorrow morning. ”
As he spoke, he glanced at Bai Yu.
Bai Yu immediately stuffed the prepared purse into Mo Kui's hand, and whispered affectionately: "I'm tired of Miss Mo Kui in front of the old lady, say a few more kind words for our young lady." ”
Mo Kui pretended to excuse himself for a few words before accepting it.
After Mo Kui left, Bai Yucai sighed worriedly: "Miss, what Mo Kui said just now is already very clear. You have been avoiding your face, and the old lady is unhappy. ”
In this Ling Mansion, Old Lady Ling is the sky above everyone's heads. If you want to live well in the mansion, you must not make Old Lady Ling unhappy.
This truth, without Bai Yu's reminder, Ling Jingshu also knows it. No matter how much she resented Old Lady Ling's indifference and ruthlessness in her heart, she would never be able to show half of it. She had to do her best to please Old Lady Ling as she did in the past.
Otherwise, she will fall into a real predicament.
"I know what to do." Ling Jingshu smiled at Bai Yu, and confidence rose between her eyebrows: "You can rest assured." ”
Looking at Ling Jingshu's confident smile, Bai Yu's uneasy heart also calmed down.
"Miss," Daylily came in to report, "Miss Eight has come to see you." ”
Ling Jingxian walked in with brisk steps and called out to Cousin Shu with a smile.
Today's Ling Jingxian is wearing a goose yellow dress, with a thin grease powder on her face, her face is radiant and delicate. A pair of eyes, shining with a strange look.
A sarcastic smile flashed across Ling Jingshu's eyes.
When the girl's love first opened, she almost wrote that joy on her face, and she was also stupid!
Ling Jingxian has always been at odds with her, and she came to "visit" her today, obviously with ulterior motives.
As expected, after Ling Jingxian ramped a few gossips, she quickly turned the topic to the Lu family's cousin: "Cousin Shu, you have been closed for the past few days, and you haven't seen Cousin Hong yet!" ”
Cousin Hong's name is really affectionate.
Ling Jingshu tugged at the corners of her lips, but there was no smile in her eyes, and she replied casually: "Do you need to ask such an obvious thing, I haven't seen it before." Why did Cousin Xian suddenly mention this? Could it be that there is something wrong with this cousin? ”
Ling Jingxian bit her lip, and a flush quietly appeared on her face: "There's nothing wrong with it." It's just that."
Even for a long time, I didn't say the following words.
Ling Jingshu looked coldly at Ling Jingxian pretending.
In her previous life, when the Lu family arrived at the Ling family, she greeted everyone together. Then, she and Lu Hong fell in love at first sight. Lu Hong only has her in his eyes, and he can't tolerate anyone else. Although Ling Jingxian is obsessed with Lu Hong, it is a pity that the falling flowers are intentionally ruthless. can only watch her and Lu Honghua make a promise to each other before the moon.
Lu Hong begged the Ling family to propose marriage for him. As a stepmother, Ling's relationship with Lu Hong has always been lukewarm. Lu Hong loves her niece, and the Ling family is naturally happy to see it, and soon proposes a family affair to Mrs. Ling.
Old Lady Ling agreed without much hesitation.
The Lu family is a famous family of the Great Zhou Wang family, and although the Ling family is not bad, compared with the Lu family, it is more than a step behind. When the Ling family married into the Lu family, it was just a stepfamily. Now that the serious sister-in-law of the Lu family wants to marry the granddaughter of the Ling family, how can the Ling family not agree.
What's more, Lu Hong is young and handsome, personable, and erudite. Standing with Ling Jingshu, he is like a pair of beautiful people made in heaven, and he will never insult Ling Jingshu. Moreover, Ling Jingshu married into the Lu family, and her mother-in-law was her aunt, so she would never treat her harshly.
Old Madam Ling still has some selfish motives that are not for outsiders. Ling's marriage is far away, and he is a stepfamily, and he has a cold relationship with his stepson, which is always a hidden danger. The niece of the maiden family has become a daughter-in-law, and she will definitely stand on the side of the Ling family in the future. Ling's management of the middle feed can also be smoother and easier.
Mrs. Ling decided on the family affairs, and the fifth master Ling was quite satisfied with the family background of the Lu family, and he was very appreciative of Lu Hong's literary style, and he was also happy to see this family affair come to fruition.
At that time, who would have thought that this "golden and jade relationship" praised by everyone would end up like that?
My thoughts wandered, and I thought a little far.
Just for now. In this life, she has always avoided showing up. Lu Hong hasn't met her yet, so naturally there is no good story of love at first sight. The person who saw Lu Hong first was Ling Jingxian!
She thought that she had probably guessed Ling Jingxian's intentions
Ling Jingxian hesitated for a moment, and finally mustered up the courage to say, "Cousin Shu, I have something important to say to you. ”
Ling Jingshu glanced at Ling Jingxian with a smile, and the perceptive look made Ling Jingxian feel weak for a while, and she subconsciously lowered her head.
"Bai Yu, you guys retreat first. You are not allowed to come in without my orders. Ling Jingshu commanded lightly.
The maids soon retired.
There were only two people left in the room, Ling Jingshu and Ling Jingxian.
Ling Jingshu looked at Ling Jingxian and said unhurriedly, "Cousin Xian, what do you want to say, now you can always say it!" ”
Ling Jingxian blushed and whispered, "Cousin Shu, I'll be in time for May when I arrive. ”
After the meeting, it's time to talk about marriage.
Ling Jingshu's eyes flashed slightly, and she said coldly: "Cousin Xian, do you like that cousin Hong?" ”
Ling Jingxian: ""
was slammed into her heart, Ling Jingxian was scheming, after all, she was still a girl waiting for the word boudoir, and her pretty face suddenly turned crimson. But there is no denial.
After a while, Ling Jingxian said in a low voice: "Cousin Shu, I'm not afraid that you will laugh at me." In the past two years, I have been a guest with my mother, and I have also met some young men of the same age. But I never thought about it. Three days ago, when I first met Cousin Hong, I fell in love with him. ”
"He was born as handsome as jade, like the bright moon in the sky. When he smiled at me, my heart almost jumped out of my chest. In the past few days, I have been like a demon, and I have been thinking about him all the time."
Listening to Ling Jingxian's emotional confession, it seemed that she saw the innocent and stupid self back then.
Ling Jingshu's mood was a little unstable, and she interrupted Ling Jingxian impatiently: "Cousin Xian likes Cousin Hong, so she should quietly tell your mother to think about the family." What do I do? ”
