Chapter 2 Soberness

"Steward Lin, what do you mean by that?" A thin, timid voice came from the door. "Does my father really want me?" , The sudden questioning startled the two of Steward Lin and Wang, and saw the thin little girl who appeared at the door, standing there with a weakened face, it seemed that she had heard what they had said before.

"Sister Zhu'er, why are you here, you, did you hear it?" Steward Lin looked at the little girl.

Sister Zhu, whose original name is Lin Xiuzhu, is eight years old this year, but her body is not as good as a six- or seven-year-old child, not only thin, but also not tall, because she was raised in the countryside Zhuangzi since she was a child, she is a little timid, although Lin Steward and Wang are the people who are responsible for taking care of her, and they are also considered subordinates, but she is always trembling and cautious, plus Wang was sent to this place to take care of an unappreciated master, and her heart is not happy, so from time to time she vents her grievances on Lin Xiuzhu, who is not familiar with the world, and often beats and scolds her at every turn. also said that if you want to return to your parents, you have to listen to her, otherwise you will leave her alone in this place and other threats, so Lin Xiuzhu always suffers from gains and losses at a young age, looking at the faces of Steward Lin and the Wang family, she is cautious, for fear of upsetting them.

But now that they heard the news that they had never returned to their families, the resentment and resentment that had accumulated in their hearts finally exploded. The anger that he had endured since he was sensible, the grievances he had received, and the despair of getting the news today, made this eight-year-old child collapse, with a desperate expression on his face, and his eyes full of disbelief, and fainted.

Until today, he was still not completely sober, and Steward Lin was also a little frightened, not that he was afraid of returning to the mansion to be punished, but if something unfortunate happened to Lin Xiuzhu when he was taking care of him, it would always have a bad impact on him.

After Steward Lin entered the house, he first looked at Lin Xiuzhu on the bed, looked at her pale little face, her eyes were still closed, and there was no sign of waking up, so he asked Wang to step forward again and let her try to wake up Lin Xiuzhu.

"Sister Zhu, Sister Zhu, wake up, wake up," Wang approached again, but seeing that Lin Xiuzhu seemed to be asleep, she put a little snack. Turning his head to Steward Lin, he said: "She still can't wake up, but it looks like she's asleep, let's wait here for a while, I see, after a while, she should wake up, and then let's look at the situation and find Dr. Zhang." ”

For this situation, Steward Lin was helpless, so he had to agree with Wang's statement, sat on a chair in the room, and mentioned to her that he was going to leave. "Anyway, you still have to prepare for going back, and you should leave early the day after tomorrow." "It's good, but what should Sister Zhu do here, she is still young now, and she can't take care of herself by herself, let's go, can she live alone?" Wang looked at Lin Xiuzhu on the bed with some concern.

"Don't worry about these useless things, let's just follow the orders of the house." "Then are the houses and land here reserved for Sister Zhu'er?" After hearing Steward Lin's words, Wang's worries were put down, and his caring nature came out again, saying that he was worried about Lin Xiuzhu's body, but he was just afraid that she would really die at this time, and it would be difficult for the two of them to explain after they went back. "She won't farm the land, and it's in vain to leave it to her, it's better to sell it for some silver taels......" Looking at Wang's greed for money, before she finished speaking, Steward Lin interrupted her, "Okay, this Zhuangzi was given by her mother, and it has been decided to leave it to Sister Zhu, which is a little compensation for severing the relationship, what our house means, take care of everything here, Sister Zhu is a person here from now on, and the household registration must also be done, and she can't let her find any clues related to the house, the news from the house, The relationship between the two families has reached the point of incompatibility, I think the two families have different masters, so the two families will not let Sister Zhu go back, and cut off the relationship with her, no one will care. Besides, the lady in our house can't accommodate the children of the former lady. So there's no need to waste time here. ”

"Here, this is Sister Zhu'er's household registration and Zhuangzi's title deed, you wait for her to wake up and give it to her, by the way, tell her, don't make trouble, it's useless." Steward Lin took out a few pieces of paper from his shirt and handed them to Wang, looking at Wang's reluctant appearance, Steward Lin was also a little impatient, "Be a man and leave a line, see each other in the future, do whatever the house tells you to do, although you can't take advantage of it, but you won't be able to suffer a big loss in the future." ”

"But we have been here for so long, and we haven't reaped any benefits, Sister Zhu looks like she has to continue to heal, and after selling Zhuangzi, she can also have money to heal, and she can count it in one fell swoop." Wang also wanted to try to convince Lin that as long as he sold Zhuangzi, he could also profit from it.

However, Steward Lin's attitude was very resolute: "Don't say it again, haven't you also received a lot of her monthly silver from Sister Zhu over the years?" There are a lot of those, don't be greedy, and even if this Zhuangzi wants to be sold, Sister Zhu has to make her own decisions, and it has nothing to do with others. After speaking, Steward Lin stood up, walked a few steps, and then turned to the Wang family and said, "Also, we don't have time to spend here, we have to pack up and prepare to go home." ”

Wang listened to Steward Lin's words, although he was unwilling, but he couldn't help it, after all, she was not the one in charge, so he had to follow Steward Lin out of the door of the West House and go back to pack his things.

Lin Zhu, who was lying on the bed and pretending to be asleep, listened to the conversation between the two and understood some of his current situation, a pitiful little who was abandoned by his biological parents, the union and separation of his parents are related to the interests of power, so it seems that the parents have long been separated, and now because they are with different masters, they have also abandoned the most important link - their daughter Lin Xiuzhu. But it's okay, anyway, this body has also changed its core, and there is no memory of the original owner, and it saves being discovered by others if you cut off relations with them. I was able to live in this era with peace of mind.

It's just that Lin Xiuzhu's body is too weak, and her age is also very young, she is only seven or eight years old, and she can't do anything, listening to the meaning of Steward Lin's words, the original owner's money has been greedy by the Wang family, and it is impossible to return it to her, and how to live here in the future is also a problem. Fortunately, there is also a Zhuangzi, there should be some fields and the like, so that the primary problem --- food and clothing, which should be solved. Thinking of this, Lin Zhu decided not to pretend to be asleep anymore, but to take the household registration and the title deed of Zhuangzi and put them in his own hands to feel at ease.

Lin Zhu opened her eyes and tried to get herself up from the bed, because she had been in a coma for two days, she hadn't eaten a bite of food, she hadn't drunk a drop of water, her mouth was very dry, she saw a pot of water on the table, and she laboriously got out of bed and walked in the direction of the table, but her weak body was a little weak, and her steps were a little staggering, so she finally poured a glass of water, and only then took a sip, because her hand was weak, she accidentally knocked over the cup and fell to the ground, and the cup was broken, so she quickly squatted down to pick up the broken porcelain, but accidentally cut the middle finger of her left hand, and the blood flowed out at once, A few drops fell on the broken porcelain piece, Lin Zhu hurriedly grabbed the bleeding finger with his other hand, and then looked around to see if there was anything that could stop the bleeding, fortunately, it was only scratched a little, and the blood stopped flowing for a while, Lin Zhu stood up and looked for water to wash the blood stains on his hands, at this time something fell out of Lin Zhu's body, and it happened to fall on the bloodstained porcelain, the strange thing is that the blood on the broken porcelain piece disappeared all of a sudden, this scene made Lin Zhu also startled, she took a closer look at the thing that fell, it turned out to be a quaint ring. Lin Zhu curiously picked up the ring and held it in his hand, the texture of the ring is not gold or silver, like stone not stone, like wood not wood, the color is green, the style is also very peculiar, carved into the style of bamboo, the top of the ring is carved a few bamboo leaves, although there are only a few simple Liao Liao strokes, it looks very atmospheric. Looking at this bamboo ring, Lin Zhu's face showed a look of love, the style of the ring happened to be the bamboo in his name, and he couldn't help but feel a little in love, compared to the size of the ring, she tried to put the bamboo ring on the middle finger of her left hand, the size was just right, and the strange phenomenon happened again, and the ring absorbed the residual blood stains on the finger, and then disappeared, leaving only a bamboo leaf mark on the finger.

Lin Zhu was stunned by what was happening in front of her, she looked at her fingers blankly, looked at it again and again, there were still traces of the bamboo leaves on her fingers, and she touched the fingertips with her left thumb, which was also smooth and nothing. No matter how Lin Zhu looked left and right, the ring was gone, "What's going on?" Looking at the marks on his fingers, Lin Zhu had some conjectures in his heart, "This is too mysterious, is there really a space ring or a Qiankun ring or something like that in the novel?" It's like winning the lottery, no, no, it's better than winning the lottery. Ha Lu Ha ...... "This conjecture made Lin Zhu very excited, and he almost danced with his hands.

"But since I can even catch up with time travel, God is compensating me, but how can I check if this ring has space? Don't rejoice in the air. When Lin Zhu was thinking, her right hand unconsciously touched the bamboo leaf imprint, and suddenly felt her consciousness "boom", instantly blank, when she came to her senses, she found that she "saw" a stone house, about 100 square meters, a lot of space, but there was nothing in it, and a "eye" saw the bottom, which made Lin Zhu very confused, and when she was thinking about what was going on, there was a sharp voice in her ears.

"Sister Zhu, what are you doing?" It turned out that Wang heard the sound of breaking the cup from the house, so he came to take a look, but was startled by the scene in front of him, Lin Zhu stood in the room with blood on his hands, she subconsciously thought that Lin Zhu wanted to threaten the couple with self-harm, and let them take her back to the house together, when she thought of this possibility, Wang felt angry and shouted at Lin Zhu.
