Chapter 22: The Parents
Lin Xuewei looked at Lin Moran and saw that she was staring at her with a smile, and then scratched her thumb on the handle of the whip......
Shivering for no reason, Lin Xuewei straightened her back and pretended to be calm: "What's the use of you being in the limelight in front of us?" It's still disliked by everyone. Say hello to my grandmother tomorrow, my grandmother will not let you go when she sees my injury! ”
Then without waiting for Lin Moran to answer, he left as if fleeing.
Lin Moran put away his whip and rolled his eyes: Stupid.
When the fools all left, Lin Moran could finally be in the scene for a while.
Taking advantage of the butterfly wings boiling water, Lin Moran lay on the soft couch by the window of the study and flipped through the books without a match, and by the way, he lit himself a pear mantle incense.
Yes, that's right, Lin Moran has already searched this study by himself and found a lot of interesting things. Anyway, this courtyard is now her personal own, and the ownership of the things in it is also hers, so there is no need to use it in vain.
This book was taken casually from the shelf in the study, and Lin Moran turned two pages only to find that it was a strange book, and there were a few vigorous annotations on it, which should have belonged to the deceased general, that is, the original owner's father.
She found the pear mantle in a box on the shelf, and in the same box there were more than a dozen different spices, all of which were named separately. The handwriting on the label is beautiful and a little heroic, which is consistent with the character of the original owner's mother, Xiahou Wan, so she should have collected it.
To say that the original parents should be quite interesting people.
Obviously born in a scholarly family, Lin Xiao, as the eldest son, was obsessed with martial arts and insisted on giving up the imperial examination and enlisting in the army.
After never returning home once in the army for ten years, and became a confidant under the old general Xiahou, he fell in love with Miss Xiahou, directly rejected the family affairs arranged for him by his father, and begged the emperor to marry him with his military exploits.
This is knowing that Lin An will not agree, so he will bypass him directly.
Although everyone in this world can cultivate True Qi, reading is still the most important thing. If you have talent but no true qi, you can still live as an official prime minister, but if you have real qi and no talent, you can only be a prejudiced martial artist. It is the tradition of this dynasty to emphasize literature and ignore martial arts, so it would be strange if Lin An was willing to join the army or marry Xiahou Wan.
But Lin Xiao still did it, and he did it with beautiful scenery, which shows that he really has the backbone and backbone.
And Xiahou Wan is also a ruthless character, born in a general, it is natural to practice martial arts since childhood, and when she grew up, she lived at the border with her parents for a long time, and by the age of thirteen or fourteen, she was already able to put on armor and kill the enemy.
It is said that she once led 500 soldiers into the Xichang military camp alone, burned half a month's food for 100,000 troops, and then brought back 455 people unscathed.
This record, if it is a man, is enough to be named a centurion.
It's a pity that she is a woman and can't enter the court.
After the war, the Son of Heaven was shocked when he heard this, summoned her to meet her, asked her what reward she wanted, and even said with a smile that as long as she dared, it was not impossible to consider the title of a female general.
But Xiahou Wan didn't ask for any objects or fame, but only smiled and saluted: "A courtier is just a woman's ear, even if she has a thousand gold, it is difficult to buy a good husband." Now the courtiers just fell in love with the eldest young master of the Lin family, if Your Majesty really wants to reward them, it is better to reward the courtiers for a marriage. ”
is obviously a heroine who carries a knife on the horse, but she is willing to wash her hands and make soup, and she can still live a good life, and there is no lack of tenderness such as incense and red makeup in the hundred steels.
Thinking that the life of the two of them should be good, it is also fortunate to have such a pair of parents - Lin Moran's parents also died early in the previous life, and she was sent to an orphanage at a very young age.
Butterfly Wing boiled the water and came to her, "Miss, it's time to bathe." ”
Lin Moran closed the book, put it on the table properly, and followed her to the bath room.
Catching a glimpse of the little girl's aggrieved eyebrows, Lin Moran asked, "What's wrong, crying with a sad face." ”
Butterfly Wing cowardly didn't answer, rubbed his eyes, and said nothing.
Lin Mo smiled clearly, "Hmm", and said playfully: "Why don't you let me guess?" ”
"Huh?"
"First, you were frightened by Lin Xuewei and Lin Geya tonight, worried that they would come back to find fault."
"No...... I'm just worried about you, and I'm okay with myself. ”
Lin Moran patted the railing and asked, "Look, isn't this just a matter of my heart?" Lie to me and say no! ”
The honest child who was tricked looked at her helplessly, not knowing how to explain it.
Lin Moran smiled indifferently "haha": "Say it quickly, it's definitely more than this." ”
Knowing that he couldn't hide it from her, Butterfly Wing sighed helplessly, and said seriously: "I just think that Miss you are so good, you shouldn't suffer these grievances, these people are too much, and they don't know your good at all." Those who work are not satisfied, in the past you lived here were bullied very badly, and when you left once and came back, they were even more sluggish, and even had to urge the kettle water five times. ”
It turned out that she was wronged for her.
This is difficult to persuade, the status quo is such a status quo, a group of fools, Lin Moran is also very annoying. But she wants to use the Prime Minister's Mansion as a cover to do some things for the time being, so she can only endure it for the time being. But I can't say this to Butterfly Wing, according to her worried nature, I'm afraid that the old sorrows have not been resolved, and the new sorrows will be added.
Lin Moran sighed and grabbed Butterfly Wing's shoulder: "What do I want others to feel sorry for?" It's okay for the butterfly to hurt me! ”
Butterfly Wing instantly blushed: "Miss, you are more serious." ”
"What do you want to be so serious? The sad face has wrinkles early, like an old lady. Lin Moran frowned in disgust, and made a lifeless look with a solemn face as he spoke.
"Poof." Butterfly Wing was amused by her appearance, and hurriedly covered her mouth, her eyebrows and eyes crooked.
"That's right, the little girl should smile more, understand? If you have grievances, say it, take revenge if you have revenge, and don't embarrass yourself. If you don't feel sorry for yourself, how can you live this life? ”
Butterfly Wing was stunned.
Seeing that she didn't answer, Lin Moran immediately knocked her on the head: "Did you hear it?" ”
"I heard it, I heard it." Butterfly Wing laughed again, and replied in a stack.
It's just that...... She looked at Lin Moran's height, which was only half a head taller than her, and thought to herself: You are just a little girl, how can you suffer so many grievances.
Thinking like this, she remembered the appearance of the third and fourth young ladies leaving in disgrace, and suddenly remembered something.
"Miss, what is that 'ecstasy' that Miss Fourth said, and is it harmful to the body?"
