Chapter 186: Repentance
The boy shuddered, turned his head and closed his eyes, his back that had been straight was bent down at some point, as if the thing he had insisted on had been abandoned after all.
Lin Yunjian choked up, and his mind was full of Lin Yunmeng's seemingly cold but gentle appearance.
I'm sorry... Eldest sister.
The next day, although the Prime Minister did not apply to the emperor to withdraw the holy decree of the search for the person, but had already begun to prepare for the funeral, no one thought that after half a year, Lin Yunmeng, who was powerless, could still escape from the hands of the gangsters.
And Lin Lin was so sad that he could only watch the servant replace the red lantern that was supposed to welcome spring and hang the white lantern as white as snow.
This scene coincided with the picture buried in the depths of memory, Lin Lin was stabbed in the heart, and the dense stinging pain was like ten thousand ants gnawing at it, and Lin Lin couldn't breathe in pain.
When the woman died, she also watched the white cloth hanging all over the mourning hall with her own eyes, watched the coffin being sent into the soil and merged with the world, and his heart was dug up and buried with her.
Lin Lin slowly closed his eyes, and Lin Yunjian next to him opened his eyes wide, looking at the transparent water droplets in the corners of Lin Lin's eyes in a daze, and the shock in his heart even overshadowed the sad emotion.
This is the first time he has seen Lin Lin cry since he was a child, and the impression of Lin Lin is either a solemn and majestic official uniform with a black gauze hat, or a serious face to teach him the truth of life, his father is like a ruthless stone with an iron face, only occasionally sad when mentioning his deceased wife, but he has never cried like now.
The dead silence around his body made people feel exhausted, Lin Yunjian's lips trembled slightly, and the words of comfort were still not spoken.
Lin Lin smiled bitterly, it seems that people are like this, only after losing can they know how to cherish it, but what can they do if they understand it again?
He admits that he regretted it after all.
He remembered his wife's dead hand and lingering gaze before she died, and he suddenly remembered... The wife's last words:
- "Take care of... Our children ......"
Obviously, at the beginning, he often fantasized about the good times with his wife and daughter, but when he watched his beloved wife swallow her last breath, the beautiful dream was suddenly shattered, and the cruel reality almost stabbed Lin into a thousand holes.
Under this desperate and painful torture, Lin Lin completely closed his heart, and even pointed the blame for the shattering of his dream and the death of his wife to Lin Yunmeng.
But what he hated was just ignorant children, but this ruthless world.
He thought that he would be able to vent his anger and despair in this way, and he did vent his hatred, but the price he paid was Lin Yunmeng's completely indifferent gaze and the pain that was now doubling down.
If Lin Lin's change of opinion and attention to Lin Yunmeng before was because of her gradually revealed talent and the benefits that marrying out could bring to the Prime Minister's Mansion, then now after Lin Yunmeng died, Lin Lin really wanted to care for her.
It's a pity that there is no way to regret it.
"Master, young master, outside the door, Dr. Xiao Shaoqing of the Xiao Mansion asks to see you. ”
The maid cautiously reported.
"Tell Xiao Shaoqing that the prime minister is busy with the funeral, so he will not entertain him. Lin Lin collected his emotions and said coldly.
The maid went to restore her life, but after a while, she came back again, with a trotting sweat on her forehead, and said intermittently: "Master, Lord Xiao said that he came to ask for a kiss!"
"What?" Lin Lin was stunned.
It's ridiculous and sad to say, now that there is only one Lin Xiaoming left in his prime minister's mansion, what kind of relatives does Xiao Yubei ask for? Lin Lin didn't think he would be stupid enough to use this kind of thing to entertain himself.
Lin Yunjian frowned slowly, speaking of which, in fact, he didn't like Xiao Yubei very much, because he could see that Lin Yunmeng didn't like this person very much.
The two soon met Xiao Yubei, the man who had always loved black was now dressed in white like snow, but his sharp eyes did not soften because of this color.
Lin Lin's expression was cold: "What does Xiao Linglang mean by this? Asking for relatives? Who are you asking for? ”
His tone is not good, after all, this person first married Lin Tan'er, and the always gentle Tan'er became neither human nor ghostly, and then pursued Lin Yunmeng, but Lin Yunmeng was left behind and his whereabouts are unknown.
Xiao Yubei was silent for a moment, then suddenly lifted his robe and knelt down straight at Lin Lin.
The low cries of the servants came and went, and even Lin Lin's eyes widened when he was used to seeing big scenes.
"Prime Minister, it's not Lin Xiaoming who wants to ask to marry, but Meng'er, and the next words may make you sad, but..."Xiao Yubei lowered his eyes slightly, took a deep breath and spoke: "Meng'er has passed away, but I love her... Maybe I saw the wrong person before, missed Meng'er and even broke her heart, after she passed away, I felt pain, and I asked the prime minister to fulfill it and marry Meng'er to me!"
These shocking words caused a gasp.
Lin Lin was completely stunned, and he didn't react for a while.
Although the young man in front of him was kneeling, his back was straight, and he was dressed in white and looked more and more depressed and desperate with the pain that occasionally leaked in his eyes, and Lin Lin, who also regretted it like him, felt deeply.
He glanced at Xiao Yubei deeply, and asked back with a little uncertainty: "Have you thought clearly? Meng'er... Meng'er has passed away, and my Lin Lin's daughter has to be a respectable wife no matter what, and marry a tablet as the main mother, are you sure you have thought about it?"
Xiao Yubei almost didn't even hesitate, and nodded heavily: "I think very clearly, and I implore the Prime Minister to fulfill it." ”
He promised her that he would marry her home with ten miles of red makeup.
“... Okay, for your sake, I agreed to this family business!"
"Thank you, my lord, for your success, but there is a reluctant request below, and now my father's matter is still under investigation, and I want to wait for this matter to be over before marrying Meng'er, otherwise it will be difficult for the saint to explain. ”
"Anyway, Meng'er can meet an infatuated person like you, which can be regarded as her blessing. ”
Lin Lin immediately threw away the idea that he was still ignorant of his fate just now, and only felt that this person thought about the vigorous and upright love when he was young and vigorous.
When the messenger sent Xiao Yubei away, Lin Yunjian immediately dissuaded: "Father, why don't you think about this matter anymore?"
"What to consider? It's rare in the world to have such an infatuated person. ”
"But the eldest sister doesn't like him. Lin Yunjian twisted his eyebrows.
Lin Lin immediately frowned: "Yun Jiao, the deceased is gone, but the living will continue to live, and how do you know that your eldest sister doesn't like him?"
"Father......" Lin Yunjian wanted to say something, but was stopped by Lin Lin with a wave of his hand.
"Don't say any more, I've made up my mind. ”
Lin Yunjian gritted his teeth, and his anger suddenly burst out boldly: "I think you are because Xiao Yubei's future is immeasurable!
Syllable!
