Lin Ruoyan grinned, "I'm just too lazy to think about it, and there's no need to think about it." ”
Indeed, Lin Ruoyan's world has always been very simple, and the Liu family has protected her very well, and she has hardly tasted the hardships, which is why she is so lonely.
The night was deeper, and the scent of jasmine in the room was still soft and fragrant.
Lin Zhaoyan stepped forward to tuck the quilt for her, and said softly: "Sleep, wait until tomorrow morning, no matter how much unruly it is, it has nothing to do with you." ”
She just needs to live so simply and optimistically forever.
As for the rest......
The next day, the sun was faint and the autumn breeze was cool.
The Hou Mansion of Jian'an woke up in the morning noise.
On the fifth day of the ninth month, this should have been an ordinary and ordinary day, because the crying of the Eishoutang inland clan was destined to have its extraordinary beginning.
Xu was making too much noise, and Lu Yutang, located in the South Courtyard, also heard the wind.
Liu, who was originally washing, hurriedly put on a coat and asked the maid who had just returned from inquiring about the news, "Ziying, what's wrong?" ”
Ziying gasped and said: "It was Mrs. Hou who made a fuss at the old lady's, crying and crying, as if she was saying that Master Hou wanted to take a concubine and asked the old lady to make the decision for her." ”
Liu Shi frowned, obviously this was just a trivial matter in her opinion, why did she make such a big move.
"Master Hou's concubine is just a matter of course, is it just because she hasn't taken a concubine for so many years that she takes it for granted that it's wrong? Does she have a brain. After expressing his opinion, Liu didn't want to pay attention to this boring thing anymore, and turned around to enter the house.
"The slave maid heard that the concubine doesn't seem to be a serious girl, it seems, it seems to be a Qinglou woman." The purple warbler replied with a sigh of relief.
Liu's footsteps paused, and he hurriedly turned around and said, "Is this true?" ”
Ziying nodded, "The slave listens to what the red tassel of Rongshoutang said. About, it's true! ”
Hongying has always been good friends with Lin Ruoyan, and she will not deceive the people in the third room.
Liu's expression suddenly became solemn, and he shook his head and muttered: "Impossible, the eldest brother should not be such a confused person, at this juncture, how can he make a scandal, this is not good for the reputation of the Jian'an Hou Mansion!" Then he suddenly realized: "No wonder, no wonder the Lu family dared to go to her mother to make trouble, she was sure that her mother would stand on her side this time." ”
"Ma'am. Are we going to take care of this? Ziying said: "The slave maid heard that the second wife and the fifth wife seem to have gone to Rongshoutang, and it doesn't seem good that we don't go." ”
Liu sneered, "I'm afraid the fifth brother and sister really want to comfort one or two, Qin Clan...... I'm afraid that she just wants to fall into the well to get to me better! I don't want to think about it, how can I help this kind of villain who forgets his righteousness and sees the wind and rudder! ”
As he spoke, he straightened his shirt and walked towards the house, "Come and wash and change my clothes for me, this kind of thing." Naturally, I'm going to join in the fun. ”

At this time, there was an atmosphere of oppression and silence in the Rongshou Hall.
Mrs. Lin sat expressionlessly on the warm kang near the window, surrounded by extremely low air pressure.
Lin Kun stood aside with a dark face.
As for the Lu family, he sat on the small brocade pestle at the bottom with a sob. looked aggrieved.
The Qin and Wu clans hid behind them very knowingly, not saying a word.
They came to inquire about the situation in the name of asking for peace, but who knew that Lu Dao couldn't get out when they came in, and the Lu family seemed to want to keep them with her. As for Mrs. Lin, she must have taken this opportunity to give them a wake-up call.
They were sitting on pins and needles at the moment, and they wanted to put on their wings and fly out. I didn't want to get involved in the messy housework of the big house, so I looked outside again, but I still didn't see Liu.
The Qin family thought in her heart that the Liu family was really so bold that she didn't dare to come to ask for peace, after all, Mrs. Lin didn't notify the rooms not to ask for peace because of the Lu family's affairs, if she didn't come, it would be clear that she would only know about the matter if she had set up eyeliner in Rongshoutang, and the consequences would be much more serious than if they watched a play here.
As a result, as soon as this thought flashed, I saw the red tassel beside the old lady lift the curtain and enter the house, and said, "Old lady, the third lady has come to ask for peace." ”
Qin's face was overjoyed, and at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that since the Liu family came, even if there was any dispute in the big house, he couldn't shirk her.
Old Lady Lin's face also softened, and she said, "Let her in!" ”
As soon as the Lu family heard that the Liu family was coming, he was even more dissatisfied, especially when he heard Mrs. Lin's softened tone, she was especially aggrieved.
So as soon as Liu entered the house, he heard Lu Shi say angrily: "Mother, you must make decisions for me in this matter." Even if you let Yuxin judge the reasoning, she will never say nothing about me! ”
Liu Shi suddenly sneered, thinking to himself, where did you get your confidence?
She didn't show it on her face, and after respectfully greeting Mrs. Lin, she sat down casually on the side and asked, "Sister-in-law, why is she so wronged that she wants me to judge for you?" ”
The Lu family said that he wanted her to judge, how could he really take her seriously, and when the words came out, he naturally went to Mrs. Lin.
She wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and sang and wrote: "Auntie, you have never told me before I entered the door, you are my aunt, I will never be wronged after I get married, I also understand in my heart that as a daughter-in-law, how can there be no one who is not wronged, and it is good to be more tolerant and understanding in everything." For so many years, Yun'er and her aunt have been like mother and daughter, and Hou Ye has respected each other like guests, and Yun'er has never hoped that Hou Ye can treat me wholeheartedly, counting, I have earned it for so many years, and I have absolutely no opinion that Hou Ye wants to take a concubine! But, but he actually fell in love with the Qinglou woman, you say, how did this happen, this is related to the reputation of the Hou Mansion, I persuaded the Hou Ye to say that even if I agree with my mother, I will not agree, but the Hou Ye not only listened, but also blamed Yun'er for not knowing the general situation, saying that Yun'er is not even as good as a Qinglou woman, mother, you say, is this Yun'er not knowing the general body and being jealous? ”
"You don't have to talk nonsense here!" Lin Kun stared at her coldly, "If you want to mess with me unreasonably, how can I not let you go along with it?" As the mother of a family, you don't even have the most basic judgment, you only know that you are led by the nose, if I don't give you a lesson, the entire Hou Mansion will be defeated in your hands! With that, he looked away, as if it was unbearable to look at it more.
"Listen, aunt! Yun'er has worked hard without credit for so many years, what did she do wrong to make Hou Ye so disgusted with me, and he didn't even want to explain! Lu Shi actually cried as he spoke, it seemed that he was not pretending to be really heartbroken by Lin Kun.
"In that case, Yun'er might as well be dead, what's the point of being alive!"
Mrs. Lin watched them argue with cold eyes, she had not expressed any opinions since the beginning, and at this moment, listening to Lu's words became more and more difficult, she couldn't help but slap the table fiercely, and said coldly: "You keep saying that Hou Ye went to visit the flower building, did you see it with your own eyes or did Hou Ye admit it to you personally?!" If you don't sit down on the real thing, you just talk nonsense and make trouble to this point, you still can't be reasonable! Master Hou, I watched grow up, I know my temperament best, he has always hated messing around, and you say that there is nothing you do, and you still expect him to explain to you and apologize to you! ”
Lu's face turned pale.
"You husband and wife have been unable to handle this little thing for so many years, and you have to make trouble for me to be embarrassed, and let the other people in the third room see the jokes, it's unreasonable!" Old Mrs. Lin said, pointed to the other three ladies present, and said to the Lu family: "Look at your younger brothers and sisters, which one will come to me to call the shots because of such a trivial matter in the boudoir?" And who has no concubine? Hou Ye gives you face and doesn't accept concubines, but it doesn't mean that he can't take concubines, if you want to kick your nose in the face, you also want to see if I agree! ”
"Aunt, aunt......" Lu seemed to be frightened, stunned and unable to react.
The Qin family and the Wu family looked at each other, and a chill appeared on their backs.
Mrs. Lin left them all behind, and she had to wait for the Liu family to come before expressing her opinion, making it clear that she wanted to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, so that they could understand who was in charge of this Hou Mansion, and they must not do anything beyond the distance.
Recently, due to the turmoil in the court, Mrs. Lin has no time to take care of too many things, and people's hearts are indeed a little scattered.
Especially the Qin family, they actually thought about settling the second prince through the third room, and thought that Mrs. Lin didn't know what to do.
Mrs. Lin used the Lu family's matter to deter the other three rooms, to tell them that she would not even spare her nieces, how could they get away with it.
A thin layer of cold sweat instantly broke out on the back of Qin's palm, and at this moment, he couldn't help but be glad that Liu was not pulled over by her, and it seemed that he would be able to keep to himself in the future.
Only the Liu family was more calm and indifferent, because Lin Chen didn't care about the affairs of the court, and she didn't want to get involved in these twists and turns, so naturally there was nothing to be afraid of.
Instead, she analyzed the cause and effect of this whole thing from Mrs. Lin's words.
Who must have chewed his tongue in front of Lu and said that Lin Kun had fallen in love with a Qinglou woman, Lu was carried away by jealousy, and he didn't go to find out and quarrel with Lin Kun, Lin Kun has never been a master who loves to quarrel with women, seeing Lu like this, he simply obeyed her mind and really planned to take a concubine, and wanted to give her a little bitter taste, who knew that Lu Dao Lu was also a soft and not hard, Lin Kun didn't explain to her that she apologized, so she planned to poke Mrs. Lin here to seek justice, and went over and over to talk about the Qinglou woman. The purpose is just to let Mrs. Lin stand on her side and let Lin Kun restrain in the future.
Thinking of this, Liu shook his head secretly.
The biggest weakness of the couple is that they don't have a heart, as long as someone makes a little action in it, it can make him fall apart.
The reason why they have been safe for so many years is just because Lin Kun is not close to women, the Lu family is ruthless, Mrs. Lin is protecting inside, and the other people in the house are not so insidious.
If someone really wants to sabotage, it's not just a matter of taking one at a time.
Liu Shi was wondering who wanted to tidy up the big house, so he stood up and said, "I didn't speculate, his ugly thing was not someone else's tongue chewing!" If Sister Ruo'er saw it with her own eyes on the night of Qixi Festival, would she still tell a lie as a little girl! (To be continued......)
