Chapter 311: Coming Forward
"Stop it!" An old, but neutral voice came from the doorway of the flower hall.
The people in the hall were stunned when they heard this voice, and when they looked at the door, they couldn't help but gasp, especially the few mothers-in-law who were about to start taking people, and they retracted their hands and feet.
After Mrs. Lin finished lunch, it was customary to rest for a while, but because Old Man Lin had specially reminded her to prepare a return gift to Lin Zhu before, she instructed her subordinates to prepare well.
Unexpectedly, before I was ready, I heard that several Miss Sun of the Lin family had all gone to Lin Yuewei's yard.
At that time, Mrs. Lin thought that her juniors were just going to do their best to be a landlord, but she didn't expect that it didn't take long for several granddaughters of the family to have a dispute with Lin Zhu.
Mrs. Lin didn't want to come to Lin Yuewei's courtyard in person. However, thinking of the Zhao family, who was closest to here, his usual behavior and his previous performance in her house, it was obviously disgusted with Lin Zhu, which made Old Madam Lin doubt whether she could handle the disputes between several little girls impartially.
had the heart to let the housekeeper mother next to her come forward on her behalf, but she remembered Old Man Lin's attitude, so Old Mrs. Lin rushed over with someone in person. On the way, I also met the eldest lady Yang and the second lady Wu, who also got the news.
I thought it wouldn't be too serious, but it was just a few little girls who had a quarrel.
Old Madam Kelin never expected that when she arrived at the door, this would be the case inside. Zhao pushed Lin Qinglan down on the table to the side, and several sturdy mothers-in-law were moving towards Lin Zhu and the people around her. Pull and pull. Old Madam Lin, who was suddenly angry, shouted loudly.
Mu Jingwen saw that several mothers-in-law had stopped, so she protected Lin Zhu and found a position away from them to stand. watched all the Lin family members coldly.
The arrival of Old Madam Lin startled the Zhao family, she didn't expect such a trivial matter to move her. hurriedly took a few steps forward, wanting to help Mrs. Lin sit on the main seat.
However, Mrs. Lin didn't pay attention to her, and let the people around her help her, and walked to the main seat and sat down. Yang and Wu also walked into the house with the mermaid and found a seat to sit down.
Several young ladies of the Lin family had long been afraid to sit in their seats, and they all stood aside, bowing their heads slightly. Minimize your presence. They also understood that since the elders appeared, the matter would definitely not be trivial.
"Sss The maid gently supported Lin Qinglan, but accidentally let her pull the injured place, and let out a sound of pain.
"What's wrong with Lan girl?" Old Madam Lin asked out loud. And the second lady Wu had already signaled the maid to bring Lin Qinglan to her side.
Wu looked at his daughter with some distress as she protected her left arm. Beads of sweat actually fell on the white little face. It seems that the pain is not light.
"Mother. It's better to let the doctor take a look, Lan'er seems to have injured her arm. Wu said with some eagerness.
"Go get a doctor." Old Madam Lin immediately ordered her subordinates.
"What the hell is going on?" Old Madam Lin looked at the Zhao family majestically, how did Lin Qinglan get hurt. Not only her, but the Wu family also saw it all.
"Mother, it was the country girl who hurt Xue'er first, and I accidentally touched Qinglan in a hurry." Zhao replied lightly, glaring at Lin Zhu fiercely as he spoke.
"Four girls, come here." Old Madam Lin listened to Zhao's words and glanced in the direction of Lin Zhu.
Lin Qingxue was reluctant to come to Mrs. Lin at this time, what happened just now, others didn't know that she was very clear about herself, she was at a loss, if she said it, her grandmother would definitely be annoyed by herself.
But how can you not go through this situation?
Lin Qingxue had no choice but to hold on to her injured wrist and walk to Mrs. Lin's side with a face full of grievances.
"Where's the injury?" After all, it is her favorite granddaughter, and of course Mrs. Lin cares.
"Worried my grandmother." Lin Qingxue gritted her teeth and handed her right wrist over. There are several obvious finger marks on it, and there are also some bruising marks.
Although Mu Jingwen's hand strength is not large, Lin Qingxue's thin skin and tender flesh are a little less tolerant, so the scars on her wrists look a little scary.
Old Madam Lin was also taken aback, how could she be so seriously injured. She looked up at Lin Zhu and found that she didn't have any weak expression, but stood there with dignity.
"Miss Lin Zhu, can you tell me what's going on?" Old Madam Lin was not angry with Lin Zhu, she wanted to give Lin Zhu a chance to explain, hoping that there was still room for maneuver.
Lin Zhu frowned slightly when he heard Old Madam Lin's question, but he quickly let go. glanced at Mother Zhao who was standing in the corner and Lin Qingping who had a frightened expression on her face, and lifted the corners of her mouth sarcastically.
She motioned for Mu Jingwen to stop in front of her and took a few steps forward. looked at Old Madam Lin with firm eyes, "Old Madam, there are some things here, it's not good for me to say it, don't you plan to listen to these young ladies first?" ”
Lin Zhu's gaze asked Lin Qingxue, Lin Qingping, and Lin Qinglan to pause for a moment.
Following her gaze, Old Madam Lin also looked at the three people, Lin Qingxue and Lin Qingping both lowered their heads, while Lin Qinglan was a little pale because of her arms, and her eyes were slightly closed, as if she was enduring pain.
"Let's talk about it first." Mrs. Lin was afraid that what her children said first would leave the impression that the package was short.
"That's good." Lin Zhu smiled and nodded, "First of all, this fourth young lady's wrist was indeed grabbed by my people. ”
"Mother, you see she has confessed. You can do justice to Cher. Zhao didn't wait for Lin Zhu to finish speaking, and then interjected. He used his fingers to wipe Lin Zhu's non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, and his contrived appearance made Lin Zhu feel a little disgusting.
"I haven't finished talking yet, can this fourth young lady's mother wait." Lin Zhu also had no good impression of Zhao.
"You, how dare you be so rude." Zhao was so angry by Lin Zhu's words that he stammered a little.
"Hehe," Lin Zhu chuckled softly. "Looks like I'm really going to have to learn the rules again. Twice in one day, the mother and daughter were said to be uneducated and did not understand etiquette. ”
As soon as Lin Zhu's words came out, Old Lady Lin, Eldest Lady Yang and Second Lady Wu all frowned to varying degrees. It seems that something complicated is going on in this house.
"The third family, you let Miss Lin Zhu finish speaking." Old Madam Lin's tone was no longer gentle, and she added a little fierceness to it. The eyes that looked at Lin Zhu also had some warning meaning.
Lin Zhu looked at the people around her, she also wanted to calm things down, but she didn't know what Lu Dao was about, these people in the room slowly aroused her anger. First Lin Qingxue, then Lin Qingping and Zhao, the eyes of the old lady Lin also made her very uncomfortable.
The people here should all be relatives of the predecessor, or more or less related, even if it is to vent the evil anger for the poor child of the predecessor, Lin Zhu is ready to let go once.
"In that case, let me start at the beginning, lest everyone know what it is and why it is not known." Lin Zhu was not afraid of the momentum of the people in front of him at all. "I met with a few young ladies and found that Yue Yue's personal mother was actually here to accompany me, so I thought about letting her take care of Yue Yue, and I didn't want Miss Lin Si and Miss Lin San to think that I was pointing fingers at the people of the Lin Mansion, so they were a little displeased. And because of the problem of upbringing, Miss Lin Si gave me a good demonstration, including how to slap people's faces, but because Sister Jingwen beside me, the first time she went to a big family, she was a little nervous, and she grabbed the wrist of Miss Lin Si, who was a little close to me. ”
Speaking of this, Lin Zhu paused, glanced at Lin Qingxue and Lin Qingping, whose faces were obviously unnatural, and continued, "Miss Lin Si's mother quickly rushed in, and after hearing Miss Lin San say that I hurt Miss Lin Si, she pushed her to the table on the side regardless of Miss Lin Er, who wanted to explain, and wanted her to be grabbed and tied up in the backyard. Fortunately, the old lady came in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable. After speaking, Lin Zhu bowed slightly to Mrs. Lin, and then returned to stand beside Mu Jingwen and the others.
and gave Minglu and the others a reassuring smile.
"Is that so?" Old Madam Lin's eyes flashed with coldness, she felt that Lin Zhu didn't have the courage to lie in this situation, so since she wasn't lying, the truth of the facts almost made her feel that the blood in her chest was surging, and she held it in her chest in one breath.
Lin Qingxue and Lin Qingping didn't dare to speak, they just stood there with their heads bowed. And when Zhao's mother heard Lin Zhu mention her, her frightened legs trembled. And the few ladies of the Lin family who were not mentioned by name in the room were all silent.
There is no need to ask any more, Lin Zhu is not lying. I didn't expect things to be like this, Mrs. Lin's face was flushed with anger, she thought that the children she educated were very sensible and polite.
Unexpectedly, in this case, let her understand that the real situation under the surface is so unbearable.
People who boast of being beautiful are willing to beat people, and people who have always been gentle and show people are telling right and wrong, and they are full of lies. The most unbearable thing for her is that she often talks about how she is a loving mother in front of her, and she doesn't even know how her son is treated slowly, and a mere subordinate dares to do his duty!
Old Madam Lin forcibly suppressed the anger in her heart and glared at Zhao and the others fiercely. said to Lin Zhu in a steady tone, "Let Miss Lin Zhu be wronged." The old body is not strict with discipline. ”
Lin Zhu knew that this was already Mrs. Lin's greatest apology, but she didn't want to do anything in the first place, so she accepted it when she saw it, "Old lady is like this, but I am flattered." I just didn't want to be wronged more and more. Although I didn't spend much time with him, I also knew that he was a kind and lovely child. ”
Lin Zhu has already expressed his attitude, and it depends on Mrs. Lin. (To be continued......)
