The Lin Mansion is really wealthy!

The walls of the inner house are built so high! How afraid of thieves coming in and stealing!

Lin Yuan looked up at the wall that was taller than the two of her, and wailed in her heart.

"What kind of business do we do in the house?" She turned her head and asked casually.

"For those who make gold and silver jewelry, it is said that when Jinling was still the capital of the previous dynasty, the jewelry of the harem ladies had to be made in our house." Xianghe replied, she looked at the wall hesitantly, and persuaded, "If you don't wait for Mama Qiao to come back, let her go, this wall will definitely be difficult for her." ”

"Mama Qiao is afraid that she will not be able to come back until evening. Come and see, I'll try it along this crooked neck tree. ”

While speaking, Lin Yuan snorted twice in the palm of his hand, clapped his hands and was about to climb up the tree.

This tall crooked neck tree is afraid that it is old, and the lush branches leaning obliquely against the wall, just made Lin Yuan's "ladder".

Seeing this, Xianghe was frightened, "Miss, you can't go down to the wall, don't come nonsense." ”

Lin Yuan didn't make a sound, and tried to climb up the crooked trunk with both hands and feet.

She has to go to the old lady, and after a long time, apart from the people in their courtyard, who will remember that there was once a little maid named Xiangyue next to her?

But looking simple and really getting up, Lin Yuan couldn't help complaining about his short arms and legs.

"Miss, forget if you can't go up, don't fall." Xianghe didn't care about the wind, so he stepped forward and dragged Lin Yuan, who had never left the ground but was sweating profusely.

Lin Yuan slapped the trunk of the tree in annoyance, but gritted his teeth and said, "Xianghe, you give me a hand, I'll try again." ”

Xianghe shook her head again and again, "Miss, don't climb." ”

"What then?" Lin Yuan's tone was very bad, she wasn't complaining about Xianghe, she was complaining about herself.

Xianghe's eyes reddened, "The slave doesn't know, and the slave also wants to give Xiangyue justice, but ...... Miss, forget it. ”

Lin Yuan fell silent, she was annoyed and frustrated, she was at a loss again.

The cicadas on the branches disturbed people's hearts, and the afternoon sun stabbed people's skin, Xianghe looked at Lin Yuan with blank eyes, and after a long time, Lin Yuan spoke.

"Go to the dog hole." She said noncommittently.

This time, Xianghe didn't hesitate anymore, grabbed Lin Yuan, and tears fell down, "Miss, how can you drill the dog hole?" Even if it's for Xiangyue, you can't! ”

"Why not?" Lin Yuan looked directly at Xianghe and asked, "Just because I'm a young lady and Xiangyue is a maid?" ”

Xianghe shook his head vigorously, but he shook and nodded sadly.

Lin Yuan sighed, "You may not believe it, but I only said that I am willing to do it." After speaking, Lin Yuan broke away from Xianghe's hand and looked for it along the corner.

Fortunately, although there is no master in the Lin Mansion to raise dogs, there are still dog holes, and after a while, Lin Yuan found it not far from the Hanging Flower Gate, but because it has not been used for a long time, the surrounding trees are very lush.

Lin Yuan looked at the small hole in front of him, which was only the size of a child, and whispered to Xianghe, "I'll get over in a while, you will hide behind the tree and guard, if someone comes over or the doorkeeper finds you, you will kick these branches over to block the hole, and then you will go back to Tianjiao Courtyard yourself, and I will be careful when I see a branch when I come back." ”

Xianghe nodded, but he still couldn't help but persuade again, "Miss, you better wait for Mama Qiao to come back." ”

Lin Yuan didn't bother to say anything, and as soon as he waved his hand, he leaned over and drilled towards the dog hole. In Xianghe's anxious gaze, Lin Yuan moved out of the inner house.

Lin Yuan didn't know the way to the front yard, she had only been to the main hall in the front yard, and she only went to pick up the wind for her aunt and grandmother a few days ago. She thought about it for a while, and remembered that Lin Guangcheng had mentioned that his study was in the south, and it was estimated that the old lady's study would not be too far away.

Lin Yuan looked around and walked towards the south.

In the afternoon, it is true that people are easy to get sleepy, especially when the weather is getting hotter, Lin Yuan has quietly walked past the dozing little girl several times.

Standing in front of a two-story small building, Lin Yuan estimated that he had found the right one, this small building is not divided into upstairs and downstairs, and the eaves are full of bird cages, which should be the old lady's study.

In my impression, the old lady has always been generous, and the little guy who wants to come to guard the door will not be too dutiful, and sure enough, when Lin Yuan tiptoed in, he found that the little guy was lying on the chair and sleeping soundly.

Lin Yuan didn't stop, and went straight to the second floor all the way.

When she went upstairs, she saw the old lady Lin Youliang lying in a bamboo rocking chair on the balcony on the second floor, with bird cages hanging above his head.

Very pleasant.

Lin Yuan coughed and walked over.

Lin Youliang was stunned before turning back.

"Grandfather." Lin Yuan raised her eyebrows and saluted.

She was dressed in a light-colored riding costume that was already black and white, and there were some grass branches hanging on her head, looking down.

Looking at the gray-faced Lin Yuan, Lin Youliang said with a surprised expression, "Yuanyuan, what's wrong with you?" As he spoke, he got up and grabbed Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan's heart warmed, her nose was sour, and she replied in a nasal voice, "Grandfather, Yuanyuan has something to ask you." ”

After that, Lin Youliang listened to Lin Yuan's story with a wrinkled face, and he was silent for a moment before asking, "How do you want your grandfather to help you?" ”

"I want to find out who has recently bought rat poison in this house." Lin Yuan thought about it and replied, since Ping An said that Xiangyue was poisoned by rat poison, then start here.

Hearing this, Lin Youliang shook his head, he reached out and touched Lin Yuan's head, and sighed in an old voice, "Yuanyuan, you are still young, you don't think deeply enough, even if you know who bought rat poison recently, what can you prove?" ”

Without waiting for Lin Yuan to reply, he continued, "Let's not say that the murderer didn't necessarily buy rat poison himself, he could have stolen it, he could have saved it from the past, or he could have asked others to buy it, just say who bought rat poison and if he doesn't admit it, what can you do?" ”

"I'll report to the official!" Lin Yuan said indignantly, she remembered that Lin Guangcheng knew that the Zhu family was likely to be involved in the fall of Second Mrs. Lin, but he always refused to report to the official, or even refused to pursue it.

Lin Youliang laughed, "This is a child's words." He helplessly and quite solemnly told Lin Yuan, "You must know that if you have no power, no power and no money, even if you report to the official, you can't sue those who are powerful and rich, even if everyone knows that person is guilty." ”

Lin Youliang's eyes flashed with a light called wisdom, Lin Yuan was convinced of his words, but should he give up? Just let Xiangyue go in vain?

Lin Yuan lowered her head and asked in a muffled voice, "Grandfather, what should I do then?" ”

Lin Youliang touched Lin Yuan's head again, "Then you have to become more powerful and rich, and at that time, you don't need to report to the official, and you can let the murderer be punished." ”
