Chapter 146: The Old Things of the Past Are Sentimental
Hearing this, Lin Mei's eyes were also full of tears, for some reason, although she had not personally experienced these things, she could feel the helplessness and sorrow when she heard her mother talk about it.
"But...... The man with whom I was betrothed was very powerful...... As soon as he gave the order, your father's clan was almost sent to the frontier, but fortunately, the adult's mother knew right from wrong and withdrew from my marriage, saying...... If she is not loyal to their daughter-in-law, she will not want it no matter what, so she will stop the adult's mind......" Mrs. Lin said this, her face flushed slightly, and her tone gradually became cheerful, "It didn't take long for me to marry your father, and then I had your ......"
"But, why don't you go to Daddy...... Also, what happened to you that caused you to be here with me? Lin Mei's tone became eager, and the hand holding Lin Matchmaker's sleeve became tighter and tighter.
Mrs. Lin's face became darker and darker, and she said softly, "I will naturally tell you these things when I have a chance in the future...... Only now, absolutely impossible. ”
Lin Mei pursed her lips and muttered in a low voice, "If you don't say it, you won't say it, anyway, I haven't had a father for so many years, do I still care about this year or two?" "Besides, Shu Wangjin will come to marry her next year, isn't it the same if you have a father or not? It's all water spilled by a married daughter!
Mrs. Lin naturally didn't know what Lin Mei was thinking at this time, and she really thought that she wouldn't be entangled any longer, so she was secretly relieved.
After resting for a long time, Lin Mei and the others got up and walked back, and said as Lin Mei walked. "Mother, why don't we go to Jinju City, it's so big. I haven't been there yet...... What's more, I can't find the road now, and I can't go back to Linshan County, so I really have nowhere to go......"
Mrs. Lin thought about it again and again, she didn't want to enter Jinju City, but she just watched the twilight getting more and more gradual, and the two of them really had nowhere to live at night. Moreover, she and Lin Mei have not eaten for almost a day, so it is better to stop by Jinju. At least there's a place to eat, drink, and lodging.
Lin Mei saw that her mother agreed, and she couldn't help but play with her, she has always been heartless, even if Linshan County was infected with the plague, she didn't take it to heart. As long as she and the people close to her are not infected with the plague, she can happily play everywhere. If she marries Shu Wangjin next year, she will help her mother buy a small yard near Shu's house, so that it will be more convenient to go back and forth in the future.
Mrs. Lin didn't know what Lin Mei was thinking, she was tired and thirsty, she just hoped that she could go to Jinju City as soon as possible, and it would be better if someone along the way was willing to give them a ride......
I didn't know that she just thought so in her heart. Then he saw a carriage slowly coming from behind him, dark gray coarse linen cloth. It looks very ordinary, and the driver is a delicate woman, wearing a dark brown cloth coat, with a demure face, who seems to have a good family education, and for some reason she will come out to drive.
Lin Mei and Mrs. Lin glanced at each other, their hearts were happy, and they walked to the front of the carriage and beckoned, "Girl...... Girl......"
The woman who was driving looked gentle and demure, but her temper was very short-tempered, and without saying a word, she was about to raise the horsewhip in her hand and whip it towards Lin Mei, her eyes suddenly became fierce, "Get out!" ”
Although Lin Mei immediately dodged and avoided it, she was still swept in her right arm by the whip tail, and there was a hot pain.
"Mei'er, are you alright?" Mrs. Lin hurriedly picked up Lin Mei's right arm to check the injury.
Lin Mei had no time to care about the injury on her arm, and just wanted to reason with the girl who was driving the car, but when she saw that the girl ignored her at all, she ran away directly, and the destination was Jinzhou City, where Lin Mei and her mother were going.
"Mother...... I'm fine. Lin Mei's own arm hurt, but she was afraid that Lin Matchmaker's wife would worry, so she could only force a smile and comfort.
"Are you really okay?" In broad daylight, although there were not many passers-by around, it was obviously not wise to directly tear open her daughter's arm to check the injury, so although Mrs. Lin was very anxious, she didn't dare to really tear Lin Mei's sleeve open.
Lin Mei secretly hissed imperceptibly, and forced a smile, "Mother, I'm really fine...... It's just that why is that woman so rude, she doesn't want to give us a ride, why bother to make such a big fuss, mother, let's go......"
Fight ......
Mrs. Lin's eyes widened suddenly, she took a few deep breaths, and said in a deep voice, "This idiom of yours was taught to you by Yufei?" ”
"Isn't it...... I learned it by reading books myself! Awesome, right? Also, mother, there are so many things you don't know...... When I was in Shufu, Mrs. Shu also taught me to manage the accounts, but I didn't know many words, and I didn't dare to ask Mrs. Shu, for fear that she would laugh at me, so I went to memorize the "Thousand Character Text" alone at night, and I also learned a lot of idioms, afterwords, ancient poems and something, although not much, but at least ......" Lin Mei was talking about it, but she caught a glimpse of her mother's face getting darker and darker, and couldn't help but stop talking, and looked at Mrs. Lin cautiously.
"Didn't I tell you before! A woman is virtuous if she is not talented, as long as she can read and write, these things don't need to be learned at all......" Mrs. Lin gritted her teeth and said hatefully, the whole person's state was a little wrong.
Lin Mei was a little frightened by her mother's crazy appearance, and couldn't help but take a few steps back, wrinkling her face and saying aggrievedly, "If you don't learn, you won't learn!" If it weren't for the fear of losing face, you think I like to learn?! ”
Mrs. Lin took a few deep breaths, and didn't know what she was thinking, she glanced at Lin Mei, her eyes were unpredictable, and then she turned around and left.
"Still not keeping up? Otherwise, I won't be able to get to Jinju City tonight! ”
Lin Mei was wronged, and naturally felt uncomfortable, with a face and a mouth behind Mrs. Lin, she slowly followed behind Mrs. Lin, not wanting to say a word.
After Lin Mei's training, Lin Mei's wife was also very sad, but as an elder, how could she pull her face down and apologize? Therefore, he could only walk in front of Lin Mei with a stiff face and lead her in the direction of Jinju City.
As soon as the two of them finished fighting, they saw a carriage coming from the direction of Jinzhou City, Lin Mei glanced listlessly, but as soon as she saw the person driving the car, she immediately became energetic, and her eyes were full of radiant light. (To be continued......)
