Chapter 12 Step by step
The twilight spring breeze gently held the tulle skirt, brushing through the dazzling faces, leaving a trace of warmth on the immature ice muscles.
On the winding corridor, Linlang carried Qiao Li with a basket, admiring the moonlight while heading west. Behind them, the black shadow that had been staring at them nodded secretly, and hurriedly ran in the direction of Jinxiao Garden.
"My brothers and sisters are here! It just so happened that I brought some snacks and a jar of wine to the fourth aunt, why don't you take this opportunity for my brother to drink a few glasses? ”
Linlang has long known that An Ge is a heavy drinker, and last year because of his background, he quarreled with his mother, and since then he has embarked on the road of alcoholism.
This jar of aged wine is prepared for Ange.
When he was in the Splendid Garden, he really scared this brother a lot, and he didn't know if he could play an olive branch at this moment.
Linlang thought about it, and gently lifted the hanging silk on the thin neck, revealing a red mole that had just been lit and appeared in front of the fourth aunt. Mother's shadow, how much the fourth aunt remembers, it depends on her memory!
This inadvertent action fell into the eyes of the fourth aunt, she was startled, blurted out the word "small", and quickly shut up and swallowed back the next words.
Looking at An Ge, who had long been unable to hold back the gluttonous worms in her stomach and slapped open the mud seal to taste the wine, a smile appeared on Linlang's indifferent face, she turned her head and glanced at the fourth aunt, this smart woman had already guessed something. In the days that followed, it was up to the eldest lady's bait to hook An Ge, or his mother's step-by-step teaching made An Ge quiet.
"Miss Linlang, I just moved here, and the stove hasn't been turned on in Xiyuan yet, so I can't prepare some delicacies for the girl!" The fourth aunt was showing affection, but she couldn't help Linlang's situation. Linlang naturally understood such words, she sneered, took over the topic and said: "The fourth aunt is out of sight like this, Linlang has just lived in Dongyuan, I heard that Brother An Ge already has his own yard, I am very happy for him!" ”
Hearing this, An Ge suddenly looked like an annoyed and angry lion, lifted the wine jar and drank half of it. He grinned, stared at Linlang with red eyes, and threw the rest of the wine to the ground, only to hear "Bang!" With a bang, the jar smashed at Linlang's feet, and the mellow wine splashed the emerald apricot blossoms.
"You're ......!" An Wu, who was eating a snack, was startled by An Ge's actions, she jumped up, pointed at An Ge's nose and said, "What are you doing!" ”
Not only An Wu, but Linlang and Liu were also frightened by An Ge's actions.
Liu glanced at Linlang in horror, and quickly squatted on the ground with his sleeves on his sleeves to wipe Linlang's shoes stained with wine. "Ange! You, you ......" Liu Shi was so angry that he didn't know what to say, and it took you a long time before he said: "Don't you make amends to Linlang soon!" ”
"I amend? Why should I make amends! An Ge was drunk, dangled to Linlang, stepped on the broken tiles, and almost fell to the ground. He pulled the Liu family, maybe he was really drunk, but he didn't pull the Liu family up, and simply stared at Linlang and said: "I am the young master of the Jin family, you are an outsider, why do you accuse my own mother, why do you interfere in my family's affairs?" Belch~! ”
Linlang's long breathing fell into Liu's ears, yes, now I'm just an outsider, an outsider who can't even compare to my concubine! An Ge, An Ge, since you don't want to give you face, then don't blame me for being unkind in the future!
The tense atmosphere suddenly heated up, Qiao Yu gritted his teeth, and walked to the front to protect Linlang behind him, for fear that this drunk man would do something out of the ordinary.
Linlang smiled coldly, waved her hand, motioned her to stand back, bent over to help the fourth aunt and said, "Fourth aunt, since Brother An Ge doesn't welcome me so much, then Linlang can leave." I also hope that the fourth aunt will say more good things in the future, so that my brother will be angry! ”
Linlang always stared at An Ge when she spoke, and this sentence fell on the ears of the fourth aunt, as if she was being grabbed by someone fiercely, and she couldn't say it! She glared at An Ge angrily, and raised her arm to slap An Ge's smug face. "You brute! A brute with a thousand cuts! Don't hurry up and apologize to Miss Linlang! ”
"Reparation...... Belch~? ”
An Ge burped, walked up to Linlang leisurely, stretched out his hand to hold up his delicate face, and said with a smile: "Brother, I will make amends for you!" ”
After speaking, a big mouth with the smell of wine was pasted on it, revealing a row of big yellow teeth and spraying stench, and said, "Brother will definitely make amends to you well!" ”
"Ange! You brute! Liu's heart-rending voice sounded from behind.
"Smack!"
I only heard a louder voice than before suddenly come out, and everyone present was instantly stunned!
An Wu quietly pulled Linlang back a few steps, for fear that her brother would do irreparably wrong again. Looking back at An Ge, five clear fingerprints were imprinted on his slightly drunken face, and he couldn't help but worry when he saw it.
"Sister Linlang, are you okay?" An Wu whispered comforting.
After being stunned for a long time, An Ge reacted, stared at Linlang with red eyes, and shouted loudly: "You dare to hit me!" How dare you hit me! An Ge shook his head and roared wildly, "You are an outsider, you are not even as good as a concubine!" How dare you beat me in the Golden Mansion! ”
Linlang's little hand was shrunk in her sleeve, and there was a hot pain in her palm. Just now, he really used all his strength, and directly slapped An Ge with a lot of meat.
"What's going on? Noisy and noisy, what a system! The shrill voice of the eldest lady suddenly sounded outside the gate of Xiyuan.
When the words landed, the clumsy body appeared in front of everyone. Liu's mother and daughter were stunned, and hurriedly took a group of maids to curtsied. Only Linlang was still staring at Ange, who had not yet come back to his senses in a drunken mood. He clutched his swollen cheeks and growled, not noticing that the Grand Lady had come up to him.
Seeing that no one responded to her, the eldest lady was a little angry, seeing that there was no one in Linlang's eyes, she didn't even salute, and her heart was full of anger that she was ignored. She glared at Linlang and asked again, "What's going on here?" ”
"Auntie!"
Linlang just made a regular salute and disappeared. She couldn't say this, but if she did, it would be a case of suing An Ge. In this way, no matter how kind the fourth aunt is, it is inevitable that she will alienate herself because of her son. Therefore, the matter here must be said by the Liu family himself!
"Humph!" The eldest lady squeezed out a cold snort in her nose, "Sister, what's wrong?" She turned her gaze to the cowardly fourth aunt, hoping to get a satisfactory answer.
"The eldest lady, blame the little girl for being rude, and after drinking some wine, she said the words of a light girl. disturbed the lady's rest, I will punish the child, and accompany the eldest lady! ”
Disturbed Madame's rest?
Hmph, this Jinxiao Garden and the West Garden are on the east and west sides of the Golden Mansion, and there is also the main hall where the Golden Pond lives in the middle. In the Furong Garden, which is closest to the West Garden, the third aunt didn't hear any movement, how could the eldest lady hear it?
Linlang sneered in her heart, but her face did not change. Liu is not stupid, she must have guessed that the eldest lady has been waiting outside the door for a long time.
For a while, the atmosphere was weird, and everyone closed their mouths and set their eyes on An Ge.
Seeing this situation, Liu was anxious. Just now she said that she would punish An Ge, but she did not get the eldest lady's forgiveness. The words he said couldn't be recovered, Liu searched left and right, and when he saw that he didn't have the tools to take advantage of, he simply picked up the broken crockpot on the ground, gritted his teeth, was ruthless, and poked An Ge's stunned shoulder.
