After dinner, Lin Yanyan went to Zhuyinxuan.

The door was closed, and Tan Yun went to call the door.

"Fourth son, the eldest lady has come to see you."

Lin Yanyan's ears were tipped, and he heard the sound of squirming inside, as if he was cleaning up something.

It took a moment for Yu An to open the door.

"Why did it take so long to open the door?" Lin Yanyan questioned.

Yu An's face did not change: "The little one is persuading the son to drink medicine!" ”

The corners of Lin Yanyan's mouth were almost undetectable, and he entered the house and walked straight to the bed.

Lin Jingyuan's expression was sad, and he was weak to speak: "Sister, you don't have to come to see me all the time, I'm fine." ”

Lin Yanyan glanced at the corner of the book exposed under the pillow, and stretched out his hand to pull it out.

Lin Jingyuan wanted to stop it too late.

"Persona ......"

"Sister, I'm too bored to lie down all day and flip through it casually." Lin Jingyuan hurriedly explained.

Lin Yanyan snorted lightly: "It's good to pass the time when this book is boring." ”

As he spoke, Lin Yanyan suddenly lifted the quilt.

Lin Jingyuan was shocked: "Sister, what are you doing?" ”

Lin Yanyan took out a copy of "Commentary on the Meaning of the Scriptures" from the quilt and shook it in front of Lin Jingyuan's eyes, with an expression of explaining and explaining.

"Big sister...... I ......" Lin Jingyuan didn't expect the eldest sister to learn well this time, and he didn't know how to explain it for a while.

"Tan Yun, Yu An, you go out first." Lin Yanyan commanded.

Tan Yun and Yu An looked at each other and withdrew one after another.

Lin Yanyan put the two books on the high table at the head of the bed, and Shi Shiran spoke: "Jing Yuan, the filial piety period will be over tomorrow, do you plan to continue to install them?" ”

Lin Jingyuan opened his mouth and was a little overwhelmed.

"Every time you deliberately get angry with me, make me mistakenly think that you have abandoned your studies and read some messy books, I really don't know what you are thinking? I'm just acting with you. "Lin Yanyan said lightly, with a look that I have already penetrated your mind.

But in fact, the original owner was indeed deceived by Jing Yuan, and he was very disappointed with Jing Yuan's lack of progress, and the sister and brother quarreled several times, so that everyone in the house thought that the fourth son had no father's control and let himself go.

"Sister, it turns out that you already knew." Lin Jingyuan was quite surprised, he thought he had deceived everyone.

This is an acknowledgement.

"So, Mr. Ji, you deliberately left in anger?"

Lin Jingyuan confessed honestly: "Actually, I discussed with Mr. Ji, after my father and mother left, the second aunt was in charge, and sold the subordinates of our big house, and the subordinates of the Rongyang, and then stuffed new subordinates in, who knows if these people are reliable...... Therefore, I simply don't want anyone else, only one Yu An, I just thought, I have to keep my head up, and when I grow up and inherit the title, I will take care of it. ”

Lin Yanyan touched Jing Yuan's head distressedly: "Jing Yuan, you have suffered a lot in the past few years. ”

When she saw Jing Yuan, she couldn't help but think of her younger brother Tao Yile, Yi Le is cheerful by nature, loves to laugh, and when he laughs, he reveals two little tiger teeth, which is very cute. Yi Le is the closest to her, and always likes to stick to her, pester her, and pat her in all kinds of ways...... My sister is the best sister in the world, the most powerful sister...... Yi Le said that in the future, when he marries a daughter-in-law, he must marry a woman like his sister. It's a pity that the misfortune came, and Yile's life was fixed in the early spring of the thirteenth year old.

"Sister, it's not hard, I have to keep filial piety to my father and mother!" Lin Jingyuan comforted his sister in turn.

Lin Yanyan sighed in his heart, Jing Yuan is too sensible.

"Jing Yuan, do you know about Zhu Gongzi and Zhen Zhen?"

Lin Jingyuan's face changed slightly, and he hesitated for a moment before nodding.

"Sister, if Zhu Gongzi wants to withdraw from the marriage, what will you do?"

"Then retreat, but it's not that he wants to retreat, it's that I want to retreat."

Lin Jingyuan clenched his fists and said indignantly: "Sister, this kind of person is not worth nostalgia. ”

Lin Yanyan: "So, I want Yu An to help me do something, is Yu An credible?" ”

"Credible, the housekeeper asked Yu An to report on my situation regularly, and Yu An said according to my instructions, and they thought Yu An was their person." Lin Jingyuan sneered coldly.

Lin Yanyan laughed, Jing Yuan has been shrewd since he was a child, like his father, others want to calculate him, but he is calculated.

After the eldest lady left, Yu An entered the house and saw his son-in-law packing up miscellaneous books.

"Yu An, go back and burn these books."

"Huh? Did the eldest lady scold you again? ”

Lin Jingyuan's eyes were clear: "You don't have to pretend in the future." ”

He didn't tell his sister anything before, because his sister was not in good health and he was afraid that his sister would worry, and secondly, he thought that his sister believed in his second aunt very much, and it was a bad thing to say. I didn't expect my sister to have the same mind as him, so I said! His sister is the most intelligent, can she still see through the second aunt's means? Although my sister is soft and kind, she is not weak and can be bullied.

From now on, their sisters and brothers will work together to revitalize the long house.

Let those people see, what is called a tiger father without a dog.

The next day, there was a saying that spread out of nowhere, saying that Lin Yanyan, the eldest lady of the Ding'an Hou Mansion, guarded her filial piety for her parents, and she did not step out of the door, but Zhu Gongzi of the Jin State Mansion, who had a marriage contract with her, ran to the Hou Mansion every once in a while, and did not know who to see.

Ordinary people are always very interested in the things in the deep courtyard of Gaomen, especially this kind of vague and ambiguous rumors, which makes you smell a trace of unusualness, and then involuntarily give birth to the psychology of exploration and speculation, which stimulates infinite imagination and has an irresistible attraction.

The rumors quickly fermented, and after countless people's independent processing, multiple versions were derived.

Some say that as soon as the Hou of Ding'an died, the Hou Mansion's house was lost, and the Jin State Mansion naturally looked down on Miss Lin, who lost her parents. And the second master of the second room of the Hou Mansion Lin Zhongkun is quite appreciated by the saint, of course, the saint is also thinking of the merits of the Hou of Ding'an, and intends to be gracious, in just three years, Lin Zhongkun has been promoted from the compilation of the Hanlin Academy to the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and there is a great possibility that he will be promoted to the secretary of the Ministry of Rites in the future. The Jin State Mansion naturally preferred to marry the second room of the Hou Mansion.

Some people say that Miss Lin Er, who came out of the second room of the Hou Mansion, was originally a water-based Yanghua person, and she relied on her good looks to seduce Zhu Gongzi while the eldest sister was keeping filial piety, and wanted to replace her.

Others said that Zhu Ziyu liked the new and hated the old, fell in love with Miss Lin Er, and betrayed Miss Lin, which is not a good thing.

In short, Miss Lin, who was still kept in the dark and kept filial piety for her parents, became the object of everyone's sympathy.

The rumors soon spread to the Jin State Mansion, and the Jin Kingdom was furious and called his grandson Zhu Ziyu to teach him a lesson, so that he could put away his thoughts that he shouldn't have and honestly marry Lin Yanyan as his wife.

Zhu Ziyu couldn't do it aggrievedly: "Grandfather, didn't you see what Lin Yanyan had become, he was as fat as a pig." ”

Jin Guogong said sternly: "No matter what Lin Yanyan becomes, you have to marry." ”

The Duke of Jin flicked his sleeves and left, leaving behind the Duchess and daughter-in-law Qin, as well as Zhu Ziyu, who wanted to cry without tears.

"Ziyu, is Miss Lin really fat and not human?" The Duchess asked.

Qin Shi glanced at his son and sighed: "Mother, Ziyu didn't lie, I deliberately went to the Hou Mansion to see Lin Yanyan, to be honest, I didn't recognize it, the second lady Yao said that Lin Yanyan was overly sad, his liver qi was stagnant, his spleen and stomach were out of harmony, and he had been watching the doctor take medicine, but it didn't work, and he was getting fatter and fatter." ”

"Grandmother, I must never marry Lin Yanyan as my wife, I will be ridiculed and I will not be able to raise my head for the rest of my life." Zhu Ziyu said with a sad face.

Qin said to his mother-in-law: "Father is afraid of being said to be treacherous, but if we really let Lin Yanyan enter the door, not only Ziyu will be ridiculed, but our Guogong Mansion will also become a laughing stock...... However, what I am most worried about is Lin Yanyan's illness, will it affect fertility? ”

Mrs. Guogong originally thought that if she was fat, she would be fat, but if she was fat enough to affect fertility, it would never work, Ziyu was the eldest grandson of the Guogong Mansion, how could she marry a woman who would not have children.

"That's not to be married, but the public opinion outside makes it difficult for our Guogong Mansion to do it."

Qin said: "Originally, Ziyu arranged for Lin Yanyan to participate in the peach blossom banquet in Princess Xinyang's mansion, and when everyone saw Lin Yanyan's appearance, they would only sympathize with Ziyu, who knew that things would ferment in advance, and I don't know which mouthy one was stirring up." ”

The Duchess of the State groaned: "You can't let the outside talk nonsense, Qin, you have to find a way to turn the tide of public opinion, and let people know that it is not our Guogong Mansion that wants to be treacherous, it is really Lin Yanyan who is too unbearable." ”
