Lin Jinlou was startled, he was a person who practiced martial arts, his shot was as fast as lightning, he grabbed Xianglan's wrist and pinched it hard, Xianglan's hand was painful, and he unconsciously let go of his hand, and the hairpin fell to the ground with a "dang". Lin Jinlou stretched out his hand and knew that Xianglan's thorn was using strength, and roared angrily with a white face: "You are crazy, you!" ”

This roar made auspicious and double happiness look back one after another, and they were afraid that Lin Jinlou would see it, so they quickly turned their faces, but pricked up their ears to listen.

Xianglan's face was wooden, and she said expressionlessly: "I'm not crazy, I just feel dead and I'm gone." ”

Lin Jinlou laughed angrily: "Okay, good, good, it's really yours, is it okay to play with your master here to find death and find life?" ”

Xianglan said coldly: "I only have one cheap life, if the uncle insists on making me a concubine, he can only carry my corpse back." ”

Lin Jinlou's face was gloomy, not knowing what he was thinking. He squatted down suddenly, looked straight into Xianglan's eyes, and sneered: "Okay, it's a kind of thing, and he can even put his life out and talk to his master." Saying that, he picked up the sandalwood on the ground, inserted it into Xianglan's bun, and gently pulled her sideburns in his hand, and said slowly, "Ye has a word to persuade you, don't talk too much about everything, you think that you can expose this matter by playing with me, what you do is to lick the blood from the knife edge, and you are used to seeing people who play with your life, your idea is really not enough to see, Ye is to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, so I will let you, you don't treat kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs, annoy the master, when the time comes, you will die, but you always have Lao Tzu Niang, Don't bother them to eat melons with you. Don't expect that kid Song Ke to save you, even if he is a fart, even if he can be admitted to the top prize, and stay up for another ten years, Lao Tzu will not pay attention to it, do you understand? ”

Xianglan only pursed her mouth, and two lines of tears rolled down from her eyes, and her body trembled in the cold wind, looking so pitiful.

Lin Jinlou wiped her tears, and Xianglan didn't hide, as if she was a clay sculpture. Lin Jinlou was also afraid that she would be forced to regenerate the incident, so he said secretly: "Now that Song Ke's kid is going to Beijing to take the exam, there is no need to force her." Then he said, "You have thought it through yourself, but don't be ignorant, and the master will send someone over in a few days." After speaking, he got up and called: "Lead the horse!" ”

Shuangxi hurriedly turned around and led the horse over, Jixiang also stepped forward, seeing that Xianglan was still kneeling on the ground, he was afraid that Lin Jinlou would be displeased, so he hurriedly dropped a sentence: "Girl, don't be too dead-eyed, just say a few nice words." Looking back again, I saw that Xianglan was still dumbfounded, and I don't know if she heard what she said.

Lin Jinlou rode a horse for a while, but he was holding back his anger. He couldn't have imagined how the girl who was as docile as a frightened rabbit in the Lin family could suddenly become so stubborn. Even preferring to follow Song Ke, who was defeated, regarded himself as dung, Lin Jinlou felt unhappy as if he had blocked a rag. "I don't know how to lift!" He had a gloomy face, pursed his mouth tightly, and cursed in a low voice.

Shuangxi looked at Lin Jinlou's face, and said in his heart: "Xianglan makes the uncle unhappy, it is better to lead him to Su Xiaoniang to have fun." He took out a ball of things wrapped in a handkerchief from his arms, raised his arm and handed it to Lin Jinlou and said, "Uncle, this is what Mrs. Su asked the little one to hand over to the uncle." ”

Lin Jinlou took it, opened the handkerchief and took a look, only to see a small purse with an acacia buckle in it, unfastened the purse buckle and poured it out, and a long nail fell from the purse to his palm, like a green onion, dyed in bright rouge. Su Meiru raised two long nails on her left hand, which she used scissors to hinge off from her hand.

Lin Jinlou stared at his nails and didn't speak.

Shuangxi said with a smile: "Yesterday, an old Xu Tou begged to come up and gave me this thing on the corner door, saying that I must hand it over to the uncle properly." said that Mrs. Su thought about the uncle tightly, cried early and late, and was willing to hinge such good nails, so that the uncle could have a mind and remember her love. also said that in the past few days, Su Niangzi has specially practiced a new song, waiting for the uncle to come over......"

Before the words fell, Lin Jinlou threw the things in his hand on Shuangxi's face, and shouted: "You are out of breath, when will you meddle in the master's private affairs, and learn from the turtle slave old bustard to pull up the pimp!" ”

Shuangxi immediately shrunk his neck, so frightened that he didn't dare to move.

Jixiang glared at Shuangxi fiercely, and his brother was a little confused. Uncle hasn't been to Su Meiru for a few days, and the old man Xu beside her has also looked for him, and he also paid five taels of silver to him to blow the wind for the uncle, and handed Su Meiru an embroidered sweat towel or something, so that Lin Jinlou can remember it and go to the house outside. Jixiang didn't dare to answer, and asked Lin Jinlou what he meant, Lin Jinlou was wiping the blade in his hand with a cloth, and said casually: "It's just a little woman raised outside, why did she come to the door?" ”

Just one word of auspiciousness is clear. It's just that Su Meiru is also a charming beauty, and she has some means, and she doesn't feel at ease when she looks at the uncle, and she can't guarantee when she will be like mixing oil in Zhejiang again. Therefore, auspiciousness is not offended, and when the old man Xu came again, he pushed the three obstacles and played Tai Chi, coped with it a few times, and specially mentioned a few words of double happiness. Unexpectedly, Shuangxi didn't listen to it, and he picked the time that upset Lin Jinlou today, but he touched the mold.

Lin Jinlou wrung his eyebrows and said: "Jixiang, go back and bring a word, tell Su Niangzi, she has to follow me, so she will stay in the house honestly, and touch the door of the Lin family at the end of three days, and then go directly to get out, there is no shortage of her to serve like this!" ”

An auspicious stack responded. I went to sip double happiness again and said: "The oil has blinded your heart!" When will it be your turn to take care of your uncle's business, the women outside are fresh, why do you still hand things in for them? Didn't you see that the serious grandmothers and aunts in the house didn't ask someone to send things to the uncle? What doesn't grow up, doesn't palm its own mouth! ”

Shuangxi didn't say a word, picked up the bow and slapped himself left and right, and scolded while beating: "You don't have long eyes!" Call you unruly! I'm making you angry! In the future, I will chop off this dog's paw when I hand something to someone! ”

After a few strokes, Lin Jinlou waved his hand impatiently and said: "Okay, okay, okay, yes, I have a headache when I hear it." ”

Shuangxi stopped, his face already flushed.

Lin Jinlou urged the horse forward. Su Meiru has become more and more clingy since she arrived in Jinling, and she can't wait for Lin Jinlou to stay with her night and night like she was in Zhejiang, as if she was a serious couple. As soon as Lin Jinlou's previous freshness passed, she was tired of not knowing the general situation, entangled everywhere, and there were still two points of affection, but now she was completely light-hearted, and she didn't even like to see her. Shuangxi came with that nail, only to feel full of trouble.

Jixiang quietly fell behind, pulled Shuangxi's sleeve and said, "Are you stupid? I also told you, why do you mention the matter of Mrs. Su to the uncle now? ”

Shuangxi hummed and chirped, and secretly regretted in his heart that he shouldn't have been greedy for the five taels of silver and handed Lin Jinlou that purse. At this time, seeing that Lin Jinlou had already ridden away on horseback, Jixiang didn't say any more, and chased after him with Shuangxi.

Let's talk about Xianglan, when Lin Jinlou got on the horse and gradually walked away, he got up from the ground, only to feel paralyzed, leaned against the wall and rested for a long time, took out a handkerchief and wiped a handful of tears on his face, and then slowly walked home.

When entering the courtyard, the Xue family was carrying the basin noodles to the main house, and when he saw Xianglan, he said, "Where did you go, you haven't come back for so long." ”

Xianglan hung her head and said reluctantly: "I just went to see off Uncle Lin." After saying that, he turned around and went into the side room where he lived, buried his head in the quilt, and whimpered and cried. Just now, she stabbed her throat with a sandalwood hairpin, but she used seventy percent of her strength, and deliberately did it slowly, so that Lin Jinlou had the opportunity to snatch it, thinking that she could be somewhat deterred, but she didn't expect Lin Jinlou to be unmoved.

What to do next? She can ignore herself, but she can't ignore her father, although the Chen family has been divorced, and they don't have to worry about being sold by the Lin family, but Lin Jinlou is powerful after all, and the Lin family is a well-known family in Jinling. Besides, she was still waiting for Song Ke to come back from the capital......

Xianglan wiped her eyes, sat up, and said secretly: "This is already the case, crying is just to make my heart headache happy, just wiping crying and wiping tears is not useful, and now we need to think about it in the long run." It is absolutely impossible to discuss with my father and mother, and the two of them will only be troubled and worried if they solve it, maybe my father still thinks that it is my great blessing to be able to be a concubine for Lin Jinlou, and I wish I could go back to the Lin family as soon as possible. ”

While thinking, she secretly went to the kitchen to carry half a pot of hot water, poured it into the copper basin in the wing, removed the hairpin ring to clean her face, and applied a balm that moisturized her skin.

Chen Wanquan praised Lin Jinlou's benevolence and righteousness, and said triumphantly: "Originally, Zhao's mother-in-law injured Xianglan, and I was so angry as if I was something, but I didn't expect that the uncle would come to the door today to apologize in person, ouch, this is a big face." ”

Xue said: "No, I also sent such things." ”

Chen Wanquan said: "There is a bag of New Year's goods alone, as well as two good rulers and two roe deer skins, and I put them away to make clothes to wear." "Greeting Xianglan again" There is also a pair of gold bracelets and a gold hairpin, which should be for you. ”

Xianglan sneered slightly in her heart, but she didn't answer, pushed the door out, and went out to worship the ancestors of the Chen family with fruit cakes and incense tables, and slowly changed her mind in her heart. In the evening, Xianglan helped Xue manage a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. Because the life of the Chen family gradually became richer, and made chicken, duck and fish meat in the evening, Chen Wanquan specially opened a jar of good wine, which was also rich and rich. It's just that Xianglan didn't have much taste for food, and the wine was sad and listened to the rumbling firecrackers outside the window, which added two points of amazement.

The Chen couple were very interested, lit a firecracker at the door, and rearranged noodles for supper. Seeing that the year was over, Xianglan ate something and went back to the house, tossing and turning in bed until midnight before falling asleep in a daze.

Nothing happened for a while. (To be continued.)
