Chapter 20: One Ring After Another
Hearing Mrs. Jing's words, Lin Ya pinched her chopsticks and was eating with her little hand.
It was late at night yesterday, and somehow, Mrs. Jing suddenly wanted to chant the scriptures again, and sent someone to wake her up who had just fallen asleep to accompany her.
At first, Lin Ya thought that Mrs. Jing had bad intentions and wanted to attack her.
Even the Lin family sent to monitor her, and now Shui Lan and Du Juan, who are her wedding maids, also have the same opinion as her.
It's not that she is too careful, but Mrs. Jing's heart, Jing Jianglong, when she saw her, she was almost angry with her, and broke the inheritance of Jingfu, just by this point, Mrs. Jing had enough reasons to get rid of her.
And to kill, it is naturally better to do it in the dead of night.
Not to mention Mrs. Jing, who has lived in a wealthy family for more than 50 years, even Lin Ya herself can easily arrange a flawless fake suicide death scene on her own territory after getting rid of a person, and make it impossible for the official family to find the slightest flaw.
However, just when Lin Ya thought that her life was difficult to protect and she could no longer protect her younger brother in the future, after entering the Buddhist hall, she heard Mrs. Jing talk about the recent difficulties encountered in the house, and took the initiative to discuss solutions with her.
Lin Ya has suffered a lot from her stepmother since her mother died, and after her stepmother entered the house, she suffered a lot from her stepmother.
is no stranger to intrigue and smearing and framing.
Naturally, there are some means to deal with such a thing.
So he was bold and offered a plan.
But at the same time, she only knew from Mrs. Jing's mouth that the surface scenery of Jingfu was actually full of internal crises, not only the descendants of the Jing family were forced step by step, but someone could even sneak into Jingfu to assassinate the owner of the Jing family.
"The granddaughter-in-law is just beating the side drum, and the idea is still the grandmother's own idea." Lin Ya said modestly.
Mrs. Jing waved her hand gently, "It's your credit, grandma will remember it for you, and she will naturally reward you in the future." ”
"So, does that old man Jing have any plans to leave the house?" Lin Ya looked at her face and knew that Old Madam Jing didn't just talk about face, and she didn't want to talk about this kind of thing, so she went straight to the point.
"Nope."
Mrs. Jing glanced at Lin Ya appreciatively, and felt that this Lin Ya was very good at her temper, and the communication between people was sometimes too modest, and sometimes it was not good to be too direct, but when the other party regarded you as her own, you couldn't always say something polite, and Lin Ya grasped this very well.
Then Mrs. Jing shook her head, "The person I sent to spy on him came back and said that the old guy was very frightened, but he had no intention of leaving the mansion and returning to his hometown. ”
As soon as I said this, I suddenly heard a chaotic sound outside the window, as if someone was eavesdropping outside the window.
Old Madam Jing frowned, and glanced at Lin Ya thoughtfully, "Your two dowry rings were picked by your stepmother for you?" ”
"Yes." Lin Ya's heart jumped violently, her eyebrows were lowered and her eyes were pleasing in response, and her little hand suddenly clenched her chopsticks.
In his heart, he secretly scolded Shui Lan and Du Juan for being so bold that they dared to eavesdrop on her conversation with Mrs. Jing outside the window, which would make Mrs. Jing suspicious...... How's that good?
"These two girls look very docile on the surface, but they are actually quite scheming, I don't like it, you have to guard against it in the future." Mrs. Jing put down her chopsticks and said sincerely.
"Granddaughter-in-law knows." Lin Ya obediently gave a blessing, and she breathed a long sigh of relief in her heart.
It seems that Mrs. Jing misunderstood, thinking that Du Juan and Shui Lan were scheming, and wanted to compete with her for favor and climb into Jing Jianglong's bed as soon as possible.
It's not that the Lin family is suspected of having a conspiracy against the Jing Mansion.
After mentioning a word, Mrs. Jing talked about business again, "I wanted to scare Old Man Jing and let him leave here early, but I didn't want him to stay, and I don't know what kind of ecstasy soup that old woman poured him that night." ”
"This granddaughter-in-law can't guess either." Lin Ya shook her head.
"That's it, since he doesn't want to die, then don't blame the old man for being ruthless!" Old Madam Jing snorted coldly, and a cold light flashed in her eyes.
At this time, Jing Changfa was indeed frightened, after lunch, let a few children rest, and sneaked out of the courtyard.
Jingfu is very large, the corridor is tortuous, Jing Changfa is like a thief along the way, tiptoeing, looking at it for a while and looking behind for a while, according to the memory of last night, he came to the small courtyard where the old woman invited him to meet.
Looking left and right, seeing that there was no one around, Jing Changfa boldly pushed open the gate of the small courtyard, and then walked into it quickly.
Hurriedly closed the door with his backhand, Jing Changfa's eyes fell on the small courtyard, and his face was a little pale.
I saw that the small courtyard was full of withered grass, the leaves were covered with a thick layer, and the white paper glued to the wooden doors and windows had long been yellowed, and there were fist-sized holes in many places, and it was like no one had lived in it for a long time.
Remembering that he found a little girl ring this morning and listened to the answer obtained by the side attack, his heart was panicked.
The woman didn't tell him her name last night, she only said that if you ask someone casually, you can find out who she is, but the little girl told him with a smile that the owner of this small courtyard has been dead for many years, and no one lives at this time.
And also laughed that if anyone can touch the owner of this small courtyard, it must be a ghost!
He was called by a maid ring in the middle of the night, isn't night when evil spirits haunt him?
For this reason, he was frightened.
Isn't it noon when you want to come and verify it yourself?
As a result, just looking at this small courtyard, it doesn't look like someone lives there.
But now that he's here, he's going to have to find out.
Slowing down, Jing Changfa slowly came to the door of the main hall and pushed it away with a squeak.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"
Suddenly, a burst of dust rushed towards him, and Jing Changfa, who was choking, coughed.
The eyes also fell into dust, which affected the vision......
It took him a long time to recover, he rubbed his eyes and looked forward, and his dizzy pupils suddenly contracted!
On the wall in front of him hung a portrait of a young girl, whom he had seen last night.
But next to the portrait of the girl, there is no Buddha statue, but a spiritual seat, and on the wall hangs the portrait of the old woman who came to him last night to discuss cooperation!
Could it be that last night really hit the ghost?
Jing Changfa felt his scalp tingle, and his hairs stood up one by one.
At that moment, there was a sudden sound above his right-hand side, and his nervous instinct turned his head to look up, and a cloud of dust fell to blind his eyes, and he saw a black figure hanging high on the girder, dangling, and the face of the black figure was facing his direction.
It was the janitor who opened the door for him last night.
At this time, the mother-in-law's face was pale, her long tongue was stretched out, and her eyes were full of fear and staring, which were covered with bright red bloodshots.
"Ahh
Jing Changfa was frightened, turned around and ran!
At this moment, he seemed to be back to his youthful days, running like a gust of wind.
It wasn't until he ran far away from the small courtyard that he stopped with his hands on his knees, gasping heavily, and there was a sound like pushing and pulling a bellows between his mouth and nose.
His face was ruddy because he was running too fast, but after a while, it turned pale.
Hell yes!
Jing Chang's hair trembled all over.
At this time, the mother-in-law who was hanging high on the beam of the house jumped down and landed gently.
A young girl walked out of the side, chuckled and said, "That old guy is afraid that you are not lightly frightened." ”
"Well deserved!" The old woman took out a handkerchief, rubbed and wiped it vigorously on her face, and her pale skin became normal, "An old man in the mountains and fields actually dares to fight the idea of Jingfu's property, if it weren't for the fact that the old woman has a mysterious person behind her, we don't have to pretend to be bought by her, and the old lady doesn't have to bother to deal with such an old guy."
I can level him with one hand! ”
"It's just that we've been following that old woman for so long, and we still haven't asked who the person behind her is." The girl frowned.
"That man is very mysterious and cunning, and he won't show his face easily." The old woman sighed.
After a while, Mrs. Kung Fu Jing learned the news and talked to Lin Ya again.
Lin Ya had a smile on her face, her mouth echoing, but there were bursts of drumming in her heart.
With the means of this old lady Jing, where is her opponent?
The idea given to him by the elders of the Lin family before was to first obtain a certain status with Jingjiang Longyuanfang, and then further seize the power of Jingfu, and then secretly transfer the property in the mansion to the name of the Lin family.
At first, it sounded feasible, but now that Lin Ya saw the power of Mrs. Jing and the methods of the mysterious person hidden in the secret, she realized how childish and ridiculous this Jihua was!
Although Lin Ya is also smart, she thinks that she is not Mrs. Jing's opponent.
His face was not obvious, but his heart was impatient.
If you can't complete the task, what will my brother do?
Thinking of the thin and weak brother who she grew up holding in one hand, my heart was sour.
When her mother was about to give birth, she told her and her father over and over again that she and her father must take good care of their younger brother.
Her father has now forgotten his vows and treats her and her brother as if they were nothing.
And she is also powerless now.
My brother's life is so bitter!
Lin Ya's heart was sour.
No, you can't just give up!
Lin Ya, who was stubborn and tenacious, clenched her fists secretly after a while.
In Jiang Long's small courtyard, Jiang Long was still discussing things with Yao's mother.
"I roughly remember so much about the appearance of that girl, and Granny Lao went over there to investigate it carefully." Jiang Long said.
Yao's mother immediately got up, "Then the slave will go." ”
"How many times have I said it, the nurse is here with me, and you don't have to call yourself a slave." Jiang Long was helpless, this point had already been said many times by the original body.
But Yao's mother never changed.
It's the same this time, Yao's mother smiled slightly, didn't answer, just left quickly to run errands.
Yao's mother went straight to the direction of the back garden, and seriously asked the maid who lived nearby if she had seen the little girl ring described in Jiang Long's mouth.
This investigation really gave some clues.
However, when Yao's mother returned to Jianglong Courtyard, her face was a little unsightly.
