Chapter 21 Wine White Silk
When the eldest lady jumped over the wall in a hurry, Liu Qing, who had been standing at the door, suddenly "poof!" He knelt on the ground and knelt beside Jinchi with tears in his eyes.
She raised her head and stared deeply at Jin Chi Wei'an's figure, and when she saw the empty left sleeve, she froze for a long time. Just for a moment, as if he had seen tomorrow, the old man cried with tears: "Master, slave maid...... The slave maid is Liu Qing, the girl next to Mrs. Lin! ”
Linlang stood next to the one-person-tall white-glazed peony Jingde porcelain, and quietly moved half a step towards the blooming azalea, which happened to fall into Liu Qing's slightly confused gaze.
That Liu Qing is only thirty and a half, but she looks much older than Aunt Xiang. When she saw Linlang, her stiff body was suddenly startled, and she suddenly remembered the girl who had only been in the women's prison for one day and was rudely carried out.
At that time, I thought that Linlang was sent to the execution ground, and she was killed. For this reason, she regretted it a lot, because of that piece of cake, the old woman who was delivered to the meal was not less difficult.
Now seeing Linlang standing here peacefully, remembering what she said, Liu Qing suddenly knew that she was able to get out of the cell because of the help of the girl in front of her.
Thinking about it, Liu Qing has not forgotten the purpose of Jì's coming here today. Her resentful brain exploded, her forehead pressed against the cold ground, and she sobbed, "Master, master...... Slave maid, slave maid heard in prison that the young lady had been killed. The slave knows and knows who killed the young lady, it is the eldest lady, it is her, she is the one who pushed the young lady down the well! ”
Ten years ago, since Lin Yibin inexplicably fell into the well, Jin Chi was suspicious. It's just that he was far away in Dengzhou Mansion at that time, and when he rushed back to Jincheng overnight, the dust had settled. There was only a mound of earth, crying silently in the mass grave.
Jin Chi was annoyed and angry, he tried his best to protect Mrs. Lin under Long Wei, but he never thought that she would still leave. And it's not clear!
"A few days ago, a little daughter-in-law was brought into the women's prison and was sent to the government for adultery. When she came in, she was fierce, saying that she had relatives in the Patriotic General's Mansion in the capital! Liu Qing said one by one, his eyes always staring at the ground, not daring to look at Jin Chi. The slave was curious, so she asked a few questions. Who knew that the little daughter-in-law was also a broken mouth, and the conversation came to that relative. ”
"General Guard's Mansion?" Jin Chi muttered to himself, and couldn't help but look down at the eldest lady.
"Yes, she said that although that relative is a subordinate of the General's Mansion, he is very famous! once did something for the eldest lady, and even threw Mrs. Lin into the well on a rainy night! Anyway, the prisoners in the women's prison will not be able to get out for the rest of their lives, and even if they do, they will be killed by a guillotine! Liu Qing finally finished speaking, she breathed a long sigh of relief, with old tears hanging from the corners of her eyes, "Poor Miss Lin, poor Lin family's three hundred living beings!" ”
Every word of Liu Qing was like a rough finger, revealing the bloody scars on Linlang's body, and then dipped in salt and brushed through the tender flesh buds.
Even though he already knew the truth of the matter, he couldn't help but feel sad and sympathetic when he heard it at this moment. Linlang's teeth were clenched, and her thin willow eyebrows were folded into deep sadness at the corners of her eyes.
No matter when, she could not forget the painful wails of the three hundred living beings of the Lin family. The blood of the scarlet fever splashed on his face, with the hatred of the afterglow, and with the hopeful gaze of his grandfather, he sent the mother and daughter out of the Lin Mansion.
"Don't look back!" Stepping over the high threshold, the mother's tears fell on the back of her hand, and the forcibly suppressed crying came from the chest cavity to the eardrum, dyeing Linlang's childish heart black. However, she still quietly glanced back, and this one glance alone will never be forgotten!
My grandfather's muscular chest was bloody and fleshy, and the executioner with a sinister smile held an iron brush full of flesh and blood, and pulled down the shoulder blades with force......
No matter when, she can't forget the fierce eyes of the eldest lady under the thunder light. Mother-in-law fell into the well's "Poof! The sound, like a nightmare spell, haunted her for ten years!
Whenever! Don't forget!
Yang Feng Xiao Xiao, willow catkins and silk, Linlang came to the mass grave in a daze.
When spring was gone, a layer of green weeds mixed in with the thorns covered the withered yellow turf, and it was impossible to tell whose grave the mound was.
Linlang stepped on the grass vines that were no more than her knees, and went straight to the easternmost part of the mass grave. From a distance, it looks like a blooming begonia flower, swaying in the wind in the emerald green. The most striking thing is the loose hair, like a brilliant black gem, shining in the sun.
Closer, tears in the corners of Linlang's eyes. I blurred my vision, but I only remembered that there was a tomb in the easternmost part, where the bones of my mother were buried.
Closer, Linlang couldn't help crying! She seemed to hear her mother's murmur, and she was in her ear, humming softly.
"The boat rocks, and the moon shines. The clear water is lonely. The wind is tight, and the trees are haggard. Elite grass bends over. Birds return to their nests, insects chirp. An empty bamboo chair, no one laughs. ”
"Mother, Xiao Qi has come to see you!"
Linlang stared at the gentle mound, which, like all lonely graves, was covered with crazy grass thorns. Maybe after the autumn, a fire will be restored, but at this moment, she can only squat down and chat with her mother......
"Mother! Li Wenlan has been condemned to death by her father! Tomorrow is when she makes her choice. Hehe, the wine and the white silk are cheaper than what she used to do! ”
Wine, white silk! Linlang seemed to see the eldest lady's regretful look.
The painful and twisted struggle made Linlang's eyes gradually glow. She faced the tomb and whispered, "It's a pity that I can't let her kneel in front of her mother's grave to apologize!" If Xiao Qi stabilizes his foothold in the Jin family, he will definitely bring his mother into the ancestral hall and give the Lin family justice! ”
Following.
The Golden Mansion is like a dragon palace sinking to the bottom of the sea, and the silence is terrifying. In the huge mansion, everyone was in the house, their ears were close to the crack in the door, and they listened carefully to the movements of Jinxiao Garden.
Although the news that the eldest lady was given to Bai Aya was tightly sealed, the maids were clever to death, and they had already smelled the breath of death from the unusual atmosphere.
Li'er wept and cried with a wooden plate the size of a cylinder mouth, on which was placed a glass of wine, and next to it was a neatly stacked white silk. The wooden plate was clearly made in a hurry, and the unpainted whiteboard had rough wooden thorns. I don't know if the carpenter did it on purpose, but above Li'er's little hand, there happened to be a sharp horn, and the palm of the pierced hand was crispy and numb, almost unstable.
"Madame......! This, this is what the lord meant! ”
After all, Lier is the eldest lady's girl, although she has done many bad things with her, after all, she is oppressed by the eldest lady's power. Jin Chi did not punish Li'er too much, but arranged her to Mrs. Chi's Jufeng Garden.
The eldest lady wears a maroon and black-striped rhododendron suit, on which the apricot blossoms are dotted with rhododendrons, and the branches are charming, and the emerald leaves are clearly veined. This dress is an autumn dress, which is the aristocratic dress worn by the eldest lady when she married from the capital to Gaotang Prefecture.
For more than 20 years, she has carefully treasured it, and there has never been a trace of damage.
I still remember how enthusiastic the whole Jinfu was when I first entered Jincheng; I still remember how Jin Chi's gentle words were when he was a wife for the first time; I still remember the old lady's smiling face, as well as the grand plan of the Golden Mansion......
However, this qiē, since Lin Yibin married into the Jin Mansion and was promoted to a flat wife, all of them have turned into clouds of the past! It's changed, it's all changed! From then on, she knew that the Jin Mansion was just using her as a stepping stone to take off!
"Hah! Hahaha......! What does the lord mean? What does the lord mean! ”
In the East Garden, Linlang sat on the mahogany bed, staring at the wind chimes in front of the window and was silent. Yan Mansion, since Yan Yefeng met the East Nine Alliance, he was like a sleeping beast, quiet and terrifying.
"Miss, there is movement over there in Jinxiao Garden, Yan Xiang seems to have heard the cry of the eldest lady."
Yan Xiang cautiously walked to Linlang's side with the teacup, gently placed it on the Nanmu square table, and called again: "Miss? ”
"I know, get that willow-colored blue conch quicksand skirt ready, let's go to Jinxiao Garden together!" Linlang nodded and ordered.
But seeing Yan Xiang's worried frowning, "But the master has instructed that no one is allowed to step out of the door half a step today!" ”
"Let's go! Don't be afraid! ”
