Chapter Ninety-One: Dad
Five days after the Lantern Festival, Lin Lan waited for Cheng Jingyun's arrival at the Shili Pavilion outside the city. The pen %fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info estimated the time, and it was almost time.
The carriage came from a distance, and it was the carriage that Cheng Jingyun drove before.
"Cheng Gong is finally back, but the juniors have to wait so hard."
Cheng Jingyun said with a smile: "Lin Lan, this time the old man not only helped you, but also helped Yan Gong complete the task, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone." ”
Lin Lan was stunned for a moment and said, "Help him?" ”
"You don't know yet. Your first Yuan Xi, and took the poetry of the poetry club, and now the celebrities of the entire Gusu City know that there is a poet Lin Lan in Yangzhou, and they want to visit it. ”
Lin Lan laughed twice and said, "Then Cheng Gong will give me a ride." ”
"Haha, the fare to and from Gusu is entangled, you have to reimburse me!"
Lin Lan rolled her eyes, this Cheng Jingyun is really a door-picker, he can't get in and out, how many good things he takes from himself, and he has to worry about himself for any travel expenses.
"It's nature. It will be delivered to your doorstep. ”
"Haha, sensible!"
I understand your sister!
The carriage drove into Yangzhou City, and Cheng Jingyun was also a celebrity in Yangzhou City, so he was naturally unimpeded. The two colluded in the car and walked into the Lin Mansion.
The old housekeeper looked at Lin Lan with a strange face and said, "The young master is back." ”
"Well, old Jia. I'm not in the house, are you okay? ”
"That ......" The old butler was just about to speak, when Lin Ruhai walked out of the hall.
"Cheng Gong."
"Lin Yushi is polite."
Lin Ruhai asked someone to prepare tea, sat in the hall with Cheng Jingyun, and Lin Lan stood aside without speaking.
"Aunt Cheng and Su and his party, is it going well?"
"Haha, smooth and smooth. Lin Lan's poems and essays amazed the celebrities at the meeting. A poem on Yuan Xi is the first poem of the Shangyuan Festival, Lin Lan, take it to Lord Lingzun. ”
"Oh." Lin Lan handed over the poem manuscript to Lin Ruhai.
Lin Ruhai took the manuscript of the poem and looked at it, nodded, and said, "It's really good." Cheng Gong, that child's article ......"
"Dad, don't worry. In the past few days, I have exchanged articles with the scholars of Gusu, and the children feel that the articles have made great progress. ”
Lin Ruhai took a sip of tea and said lightly: "Not bad." ”
When Cheng Jingyun saw that the task was completed, he said: "The boat is tired, and the old man is tired. Now that he is back, the chaff at home must be in a hurry, so he will not bother Lin Gong and leave. ”
Lin Ruhai got up and arched his hand: "Then I won't leave Cheng Gong." Butler, send a send-off to Cheng Gong. ”
The father and son watched Cheng Jingyun leave. Lin Lan always felt that the atmosphere was a little weird, but she couldn't tell what was weird.
Lin Ruhai put his hands behind his back and sighed: "Lan'er, ......"
"What's wrong, Dad?"
Lin Ruhai squinted his eyes and smiled: "Is Gusu City fun?" ”
"It's ok. The big bell of Hanshan Temple outside the city struck and it was very crisp. Then Taihu Lake also went to play, it is much bigger than Slender West Lake......" Lin Lan casually talked a few nonsense, it is estimated that Lin Ruhai has never been there.
Just as Lin Lan was stealing fun, suddenly a wind sounded from behind.
Syllable!
The rattan knots struck him firmly on his back.
This time, Lin Lan wore less clothes, and she really felt what it meant to be hot.
"Dad, ...... you" Lin Lan was stunned by the sudden change, turned around innocently, and looked at Lin Ruhai.
"Pretend, keep pretending for me! Stinky boy, you dare to lie to your father with your elders! Honestly, where have you been fooling around these days! While Lin Ruhai was talking, the rattan was about to be pulled down again.
Lin Lan's face changed, and she hurriedly hid behind the pillar, so as not to suffer from the flesh and skin again, "Dad, what do you say, the child doesn't understand." Lin Lan, who has had experience in lying, understands that before she finds out the details of her elders, she must be cheeky and pretend that she doesn't know anything.
Such an "unexpected gain" is often replaced by mental or physical pain and returned to Lin Lan, so it is all revealed anyway, so it is better to pretend to be stupid first.
"Don't understand? Shunyo told me the day before yesterday. You stinky boy didn't go to Gusu City at all, and said that you disappeared by the Slender West Lake. Are you still quibbling? See if I don't kill you! Lin Ruhai raised the rattan high, "You stinky boy is missing, I don't dare to tell your mother, for fear of being angry with you, these days by the lake, everyone is looking crazy, do you know?" Stop for me, and run! ”
Wang and Aunt Sanfang talked and laughed and came back from the Qiling Temple to incense. As soon as I entered the Lin Mansion, I saw Lao Tzu beating his son in this courtyard, and his face suddenly lost color.
Lin Lan hid behind Wang Xiu'er and said, "Mother, you persuade your father." This broke me, it was a small thing, and it was a big thing to anger his body. "Of course, it's better not to break him......
Lin Ruhai held the rattan, panted, and said, "Xiu'er, this time you get out of the way, I have to kill him!" ”
"Master, what's going on?"
Lin Ruhai gasped and said, "Ask this rebel yourself, what did he do?" ”
Lin Lan almost figured out the matter.
Probably Shunyu saw that he was caught by Shang Qingyang and put in the painting boat on the lake, and felt that things had changed, so he told Lin Ruhai, but concealed Shang Qingyang's matter.
So he rolled his eyes, took the lesser of two evils, gritted his teeth and said, "Mother, the child has been playing on the lake for a few days. When the official was going to take me to Gusu, the journey was too far, and I ...... I got motion sickness, so I went back halfway, and I was afraid of being scolded by my father, so I hid in the painting boat for a few days. ”
When Wang Xiu'er heard that this was the case, she breathed a sigh of relief, after all, it was not a big deal, so she said, "I don't apologize to your father yet!" "This matter, Lin Ruhai is angry, she sees the wind at this time and stands on Lin Lan's side, which will make Lin Ruhai even more angry, it is better to play the whole play.
Wang took the rattan in Lin Ruhai's hand, and seemed to be whipped on Lin Lan's body, but every time it hit the ground, Lin Lan also saw that her mother was acting, and deliberately screamed, and finally saw that the play was almost done, so she knelt in front of Lin Ruhai, "Dad, the child knows that he is wrong." I'm worried about you and your mothers. ”
"Humph! Sincerely, did you do it? It was only a few days to educate you? If you make a mistake again, you're going to me off, right? ”
Lin Lan said helplessly: "Dad, but this Gusu's poem is indeed won by a child, Cheng Gong also said that this poem has also been highly praised by Yun Gong." He made a big move and changed the subject directly.
"What? Lan'er, you are not in Gusu, can you still get Shikui? Wang Xiuer was really surprised this time, not like acting.
"When the child got off the car, he was worried that he didn't go to Gusu and disappointed his parents, so he wrote a poem casually and asked Cheng Gong to take it, so that his peers in Gusu could taste it, but he didn't expect to accidentally take the poem Kui ......"
The aunts helped Lin Lan up and said with a smile: "Our Lan'er is really a great talent." Several people were very happy, and they hugged Lin Lan and walked towards the inner room.
"Ah Lan, you're not too young, it's time to start a family, right?"
"Yes, several matchmakers are going to be matchmakers for you. Many girls in Yangzhou Mansion have admired you for a long time. ”
"Uh...... Lan'er felt that it was better to focus on the career first, and this child's personal relationship was easy to affect the imperial examination. ”
"Hmm...... Also. Our Lan'er is so good, don't worry about finding a good girl. ”
Lin Ruhai frowned and roared angrily: "What are you doing here!" I educate my son! Where does this put me? Mothers are so defeated! Give me back! ”
