Chapter 309: Confrontation
Lin Yuewei looked up at Lin Zhu with concern, with a little uneasiness in his eyes.
Lin Zhu found out and patted his head gently, "It's time for you to take a nap." He smiled comfortingly.
"What about my sister?" Lin Yuewei is not as ignorant as a six-year-old child, and his big eyes reveal the worry about the arrival of a few uninvited guests just now.
"They're just curious, so don't worry." Lin Zhu naturally knew that the young ladies of the Lin family might have come to find the ballast, but this should not be what Lin Yuewei should worry about, so he appeased him.
"If the third sister and the fourth sister dare to bully the sister, I will take revenge on you." Lin Yuewei quite understood the virtues of his sisters, and said in a firm tone.
"Alright, go to bed. Children eat and sleep more to grow faster. Lin Zhu didn't want Lin Yuewei to get involved in such a thing.
However, although Lin Yuewei is worried about Lin Zhu, he can't adapt to the problems caused by his biological age, and children really need to take a nap. In the patting of Lin Zhu, he slowly fell asleep.
"Take care of your young master, don't let irrelevant people quarrel with him." Lin Zhu lightly instructed the subordinates who served Lin Yuewei, and for a moment he thought that Lin Zhu was the master of this mansion, and the subordinates were busy responding.
waited until Lin Zhu took the attendant out of the palace before he reacted. However, they didn't have any objection to Lin Zhu's anti-guest command, because apart from this sentence, she had always been gentle and tolerant. Coupled with her generosity, these subordinates have a good impression of her, so they are also worried about Lin Zhu. After all, the ladies of the Lin family are not fuel-efficient lamps.
Of course, Lin Qinglan and the others would not wait for Lin Zhu to appear in the courtyard, after all, no one could stand the cold weather.
Lin Yuewei's yard. There was also a flower hall where there were also guests, and they all gathered there to wait.
About two teas later, Lin Zhu came over with Minglu and the others.
Pushing open the door and walking into the flower hall, several young ladies of the Lin family sat down early, each with a small stove, and there was also a charcoal pot burning in the flower hall, and she felt a burst of heat coming in from outside.
Lin Zhu glanced at the charcoal basin on the ground, and secretly had some thoughts.
All but the bottom of the chair in the room were occupied. And a few young ladies also glanced at Lin Zhu several times with their eyes fluttering.
For these Lin Zhu, she had never cared about, she just glanced at the chair lightly. Minglu immediately stepped forward and wiped the non-existent dust with a handkerchief. And secretly used his hand to get off the chair, thinking that it was no problem, so he nodded slightly to Lin Zhu and signaled that he could sit down.
It's not that Lin Zhu deliberately cares about it. There is really no faith in these people who do not have good intentions. It's better to be cautious.
But her style was even more unbearable in the eyes of Miss Lin. actually put a score in front of them, and there was no one in their eyes. Lin Qingxue, Lin Qingping and the others flew towards Lin Zhu with knives in their eyes.
However, Lin Zhu, who was sitting with his head down, didn't feel it.
"The status is low, but the shelf is not small." Lin Qingxue snorted coldly.
"Fourth sister. You don't know that in this world, there are always some clowns who like to dangle in front of people, which is really a headache. Lin Qingping made a gesture of stroking her forehead.
Several young ladies of the Lin family all lowered their heads and covered their mouths and chuckled. Of course, there was a lot of disdain in the eyes that looked at Lin Zhu.
But it does not include Lin Qinglan, the second lady of the Lin family, she looked at the third and fourth sisters with some displeasure, feeling that they have lost their identity as the daughters of the Lin family, but this kind of occasion is not a good time to mention them. I had to look at Lin Zhu with a little apologies.
Lin Qinglan's attitude was something Lin Zhu didn't expect, but her good impression of her deepened.
The place where Lin Zhu was sitting could be said to be the closest to the door in the whole house, and he faintly felt that some cool breeze was blowing from outside. Lin Zhu gently tightened the cloak on his body.
She also found that there was tea on Miss Lin's table, only her table was not, she looked at the person standing not far away who was obviously Lin Yuewei's yard, and found that it was Lin Yuewei's most personal housekeeper mother. I couldn't help but squint my eyes.
The person who was supposed to take care of Lin Yuewei's lunch break appeared here, and followed Lin Qingxue with a flattering face. It seems that when Lin Yuewei was coaxing Lin Yuewei to sleep just now, it was no accident that this personal mother did not follow him.
Lin Zhu's movements of looking at this personal mother were of course discovered by Lin Qingxue and others, who were always paying attention to her. She didn't notice anything wrong. So I was very unhappy with Lin Zhu's gaze.
"Mother Zhao, don't serve tea to this Lin Zhu girl." Lin Qingxue looked at Lin Zhu contemptuously in a condescending tone and said, "Don't let people say that our Lin family has neglected the guests. ”
"Yes." The housekeeper mother, who is known as Zhao's mother, bowed down and wanted to go out to serve tea.
This kind of provocative behavior is generally not seen by Lin Zhu, after all, on other people's territory, it can be low-key or low-key, but this Mother Zhao made her very annoyed.
"No need," Lin Zhu said lightly. Her refusal made the other Lin family ladies a little puzzled, and they all cast curious glances at her. "Although my words are a bit overstepping, you should still do what you want." Lin Zhu raised his hand to Mother Zhao and rushed out like a fly.
As soon as these words came out, the scene immediately fell silent. That Mother Zhao stood there a little overwhelmed, not moving, not moving. looked at Lin Qingxue with some embarrassment.
"Hmph, I don't even know how to say it, there are people in the world who are so shameless that they can rightly instruct the people of the Lin Mansion. It's not your turn to point fingers here. Lin Qingxue, who had long seen Lin Zhu's displeasure, burst out without warning.
"It's ridiculous, Mother Zhao is the most powerful housekeeper mother around the third aunt, why do you say nonsense from a country girl who came out of nowhere." Lin Qingping saw that Lin Zhu was under Lin Qingxue's anger, and he didn't dare to make a sound, so he opened his mouth to teach a lesson. But her words always have a feeling of adding fuel to the fire.
As soon as she spoke, Lin Qingxue became even more angry.
"Third sister, you don't have to say a word." Lin Qinglan felt that the scene was a little unusual. "Fourth sister, sit down." Just now, she heard Lin Zhu's words and seemed to mean something else, but as soon as the two of them spoke, they were diverted.
"The two young ladies misunderstood, I didn't mean to instruct the Lin family." Lin Zhu still spoke calmly, not angry because of Lin Qingxue and Lin Qingping's untamed exports, or disdainful of dealing with them.
"No?! You don't have to pretend there. I didn't expect you to be so scheming as a country girl. Lin Qingxue didn't listen to Lin Zhu's explanation, and said sarcastically, "First please Xiao Qi, and then let him invite you to the mansion, and then you will naturally please your grandfather and grandmother, and you want to climb to the Lin family in this way." Lin Qingxue looked like she was swearing. As if everything was as she said, Lin Zhu was this kind of opportunistic villain.
The other ladies of the Lin family all showed sudden expressions on their faces, and the eyes that looked at Lin Zhu were clearly disdainful.
Lin Zhu was almost amused by her words, if it wasn't for the wrong occasion, she would definitely laugh out loud, I really want to say to her, you think too much.
"Miss Lin, please rest assured, the Lin family is powerful, but it is not something that a small person like me can climb, I still have this self-knowledge." Lin Zhu said sarcastically. Since she was unruly, Lin Zhu felt that she didn't need to be too accommodating to her.
Looking at Lin Qingxue's eyes, there was some disdain that was more than that of the people in the Lin Mansion, as if clinging to the Lin family would make her suffer great grievances.
Lin Qingxue suddenly felt a breath of breath in her chest, and she couldn't get out.
"Also, as far as I know, this Mother Zhao seems to be Yueyue's personal mother." Lin Zhu didn't care what everyone thought of her, and said to herself, "When Yue Yue was about to rest just now, shouldn't this Mother Zhao follow Yue Yue's side?" Are you here, aren't you afraid that your master will say that you have left your post without permission? ”
In the last question, Lin Zhu stared at the mother Zhao, and her face turned pale when she looked at her, and a cold sweat actually broke out on her head.
She has always been accustomed to currying favor with Lin Qingxue, as long as Lin Qingxue comes, she will rush to serve her, and she has repeatedly benefited from this kind of flattery. She didn't care if she neglected Lin Yuewei, because the third lady Zhao liked this daughter the most, as long as she liked her, she would naturally not be reprimanded and punished by Zhao.
But now that her mistakes have been exposed by Lin Zhu like this, and in front of so many young ladies of the Lin family, it has been spread, so how can she still have a foothold in the Lin family in the future.
At this time, she only hoped that Lin Qingxue could drive Lin Zhu out of the mansion, so that she could find a chance to justify herself.
"Fourth Miss, it's all the old slave's fault. The Seventh Young Master was very happy with Miss Lin Zhu's arrival. I've been playing with Miss Lin Zhu. The old slave was also afraid of upsetting the Seventh Young Master, so he didn't bother them. I didn't expect to neglect the seventh young master, I really shouldn't have it, please ask the fourth lady to punish him. Mother Zhao knelt in front of Lin Qingxue and said something specious about retreating. made Lin Qingxue's face, which had already turned black, turn back.
Mother Zhao saw that her words had a little effect, and her heart calmed down a little. Still, she couldn't get up. She had to make a confessional appearance.
Lin Zhu watched her say so many words in a coated manner, and admired her for being able to say black to white. But this is in the Lin Mansion, even if he says that she is wrong, it will not help. Anyway, with so many people watching, her reputation in the Lin Mansion wouldn't be much better.
If Old Man Lin and Old Madam Lin really loved Lin Yuewei, they would definitely not let her follow him anymore. And in this way, the purpose of Lin Zhu has also been achieved.
So Lin Zhu just glanced at Mother Zhao, who was kneeling on the ground, and didn't care about her provoking words. Because the relationship with Lin Qingxue was very bad, Lin Zhu didn't care about any worse.
On the contrary, Lin Qinglan heard some ways from the words between them. Looking at Mother Zhao's eyes, they also flickered. (To be continued......)
