Chapter 2 Reincarnation
A baby's cry came from the room.
"Master, listening to the loud cry, it must be a young master. The butler said flatteringly.
"Whether it's a young master or a young lady, as long as Madame can be safe, it's more important than anything else. "Master Li is very anxious.
Mr. Li is a well-known local tycoon, even if his ancestors have no one in politics, but his ancestors are also big families, and they have been wealthy businessmen for several generations. So far, it can be regarded as a struggle for children and grandchildren, and it has not allowed the family business to decline. But when it came to Li Qin's generation, seeing that Li Qin was almost over forty years old, he didn't have a son and a half daughter under his knees. asked the reason, presumably because Deng Zijun, who is also Li Qin's wife, has been frail and sickly since he was a child, and Li Qin is a childhood sweetheart. When he reached the age, he married into the house, and he never thought about taking a concubine.
Twenty years of love between husband and wife, envy of others, the fly in the ointment is that Mrs. has never been pregnant. The famous Lang Zhong once said, "Madame is weak, and it is indeed difficult to get pregnant, but it is not impossible." The Li family and his wife settled down, Li Qin hoped that his wife could be safe and sound, and it was enough to accompany him for a lifetime. However, this incident made the old lady of the family anxious, worried that the eldest son would have no children and be lonely in his later years. Fortunately, the old lady ate fasting and recited the Buddha, and finally looked forward to it.
"Congratulations, congratulations, it's a young lady, how pleasing it looks like it!" the midwife came out of the room.
"Madame, Madame is fine. Master Li asked the midwife urgently.
"Madame is fine, but she is a little tired, she is asleep, mother and daughter are safe, congratulations to the master, congratulations to the master. The midwife said.
"Butler, take the midwife down, reward. After Mr. Li finished speaking, he rushed into the room.
Master Li tiptoed to the side of the bed, gently stroked the beads of sweat from his wife's forehead, and said as if he was caring for himself, "Madam, it's hard work." ”
Six years later.
"Miss, Miss, slow down!" a group of housekeepers and maidservants ran after a six-year-old child, but ah, they couldn't catch up, and the child, running east and west, seemed to have inexhaustible strength, but tired the people who were chasing her.
That's right, this is Xue Meng, but she also has a mortal name. Li Linglong, when the lord and his wife were first named, they hoped that this child would be well-behaved and knowledgeable. But it backfired, the old lady was spoiled, and the lady was used to it. Master Li is more than capable but not enough, looking at the naughty and mischievous Linglong every day, he can't beat or scold.
"Don't follow me all the time. I'm already a mature baby. Linglong learned the tone of an adult.
However, it is also strange to say, Linglong has been a little different since she was a child, her body is bumped, her skin is broken or something, and it can always heal quickly. I invited the doctor to take a look, and the doctor looked at it for a long time, but he didn't see any reason, so he said that the young lady was in good health and had no strange illness. When the husband and wife saw the doctor say this, the matter passed like this.
But this Linglong is really naughty, only six years old, and all kinds of ways to make a whole person can come out of her little head. It is not uncommon to throw caterpillars on the head of the maid or hide them in a change of clothes, she is the one who secretly hides the newborn dog and provokes the to look for it in a hurry, and the most hateful thing is that she likes to put her hand on the buttocks of the maidservant girl the most, which makes the maid of the house angry and ashamed.
"Be careful, don't stumble. Madame said softly to Linglong.
"Aren't we usually too spoiled? Master Li looked at his wife and said.
"Nothing. Madame pursed her lips and smiled.
"This guy seems to be very naughty on the surface, but in fact, he has his own ideas about doing things. ”
"It's... Where to start with Madame. ”
"At the beginning, I also felt that Linglong was too naughty, and it was really not in line with everyone's beautiful behavior, but I thought that if we forced her to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, it seemed to be for Linglong's good, but we ignored the child's own thoughts. Later, I asked Linglong privately what she thought about this, and she said, 'If I like to do these things, I'm willing to learn them.' But, mother, I don't like it. I don't want to force myself to like it because other sisters like it, so Linglong will be unhappy'. ”
"Master, don't look at Linglong who is six years old, her words are not like this, but I don't want her to be like this, shouldn't the child be simple? Madame straightened Master Li's sleeve.
"Then there is another hidden reason for her stubborn behavior?" Master Li glanced at Linglong, who was fighting with his subordinates.
"Yes, sir, please come with me to the study, it is better for fewer people to know about this matter. ”
Master Li went to the study with his wife.
"Madam, are you sure so, you are not mistaken?" Master Li looked at Madame thoughtfully.
"That's right, I was worried about Linglong, this little guy is weird, I'm afraid that she will make some trouble, so I secretly followed her for half a month. "It is said that when a woman has a child, she becomes suspicious and always worries about the safety of the child. Sure enough, even the gentle and considerate lady actually did the thing of stalking.
"Madam, go down first, I won't tell anyone about it. Master Li sighed lightly.
After Mrs. walked out of the study, Master Li took out a small box placed on the bottom layer of the cabinet, and then took out a dusty book from the top of the cabinet. Master Li gently removed the dust from the book, and took out a key that matched the small box in the middle of the book. With a slight turn of the key, the box opened, containing only a letter and no other items.
Six years ago, three days after Linglong was born, for some reason, her body was hot and turned red, but Linglong didn't cry or make trouble. This frightened the old woman and the lady, and they immediately sent their men to the most famous doctor in the city. When the doctor came, he looked at Linglong's tongue and eyes, checked his pulse, and then told his wife and young lady that Linglong was not sick, perhaps because the weather was too hot. After that, he quietly invited Master Li out, handed Master Li a letter, and told Master Li that the letter was sent by a bird when he went out to collect medicine in the morning, and attached a note that said that he should hand it over to Master Li.
Master Li immediately opened the letter, and there were only a few words in the letter: 'When Linglong is sixteen, I will take her away'. After seeing this, Master Li was very puzzled, who was this person? Why did he take Linglong away? What is the direct relationship between Linglong and him? With doubts and fear that his wife and old woman would be worried, Master Li locked up the letter.
Today, Mrs. Li said to the lord that Linglong scared the caterpillar because she saw that the next person had lost the silkworm baby she raised, and said that the young lady was not allowed to play with such dirty things, so Linglong would do so; But Linglong is only six years old, and if this matter is known to others, others will think, how can a child have so many thoughts, and then spread bad words.
Why don't you explain that Linglong is molesting the servant girl? It's just that she's lustful, and when she sees those good-looking young ladies, she can't help but come out.
Master Li thought for a long time, and then opened the letter again. But a strange thing happened, there was not even half a word on the letter? Why is this? Master Li was even more puzzled, when Linglong was sixteen years old, would anyone really take her away, all this can only be known when Linglong turns sixteen.
"Haha, is your master here? Last time he came to my house and said, he found a rare calligraphy and painting, and asked me to enjoy it today, did you forget?"
"How come, just now the master was still thinking about why the master Wang didn't come yet? I'll go in and inform my lord that you're here. The butler immediately greeted him.
"You take Master Wang to the guest room, and then make a pot of good tea and bring it over. The housekeeper ordered a servant to inform Master Li.
Mr. Wang, who is also a well-known wealthy businessman in this area, is very good friends with Mr. Li, and the two businessmen have close contacts. When the two are not busy with business, they like to play chess together and appreciate the masterpieces of famous teachers, which is an elegant taste.
What is Linglong doing at this time? Of course, she is here to see who is coming, it is rare that there is a guest at home, she must come and take a look. Linglong jumped to the guest room, poked out her little head, and looked into the back room. When he found out that it was Daddy's old friend, he felt bored and turned around to leave. Who would have expected that as soon as he turned around, he bumped into a wall of flesh, Linglong rubbed his forehead, and was ready to leave directly. This guy is taller than her, and he must be older than her, except for the elders, he is a subordinate, and I don't care if I have a lot of adults.
"Well, you bumped into me, should you apologize to me?" a childish voice came from overhead.
