Chapter 47: Intercession
In fact, as early as when Lin Yingxue's yard found the new set of clothes that should have belonged to Lin Yingmeng, the little guy in charge of decorating it already understood that it was his negligence that led to the current result.
It's just that he has been working in the Lin Mansion for several years, and he is very clear about the character of their fourth young lady, if he stands up and admits that it is actually his mistake now, I am afraid he will inevitably be severely punished.
Since this is the case, then he might as well bite to death It's none of his business, anyway, now Miss Fourth is also suspicious of Miss Five, as long as he doesn't admit it, then this matter will definitely not fall on him......
Thinking like this, the little guy was a little dodged when he faced Lin Yingxue's questioning gaze, "Fifth Miss, you have to be in charge when you speak, the little one has been doing things in the house for so many years, and he has rarely made mistakes, and this time he checked it again and again when decorating the items, and the little one can guarantee that the problem is definitely not with the little one!" ”
It's not you, it's herself? Lin Yingxue's eyes froze, looking at the little girl's dodging appearance, she already had a bottom in her heart.
It's just that right now, Lin Yingmeng is biting her to death, and that little guy is not honest, and she can't find any other breakthrough to prove her innocence for a while.
Just when the atmosphere fell into a stalemate, there were many people outside Biluoxuan. Lin Yingxue swept slightly, the Song family, the eldest lady, Lin Yingling and others actually came over! It seems that before coming to her courtyard, Lin Yingmeng had already made a lot of noise, otherwise it would not be possible to attract most of the important people of the Lin family at this time.
"What's going on? I heard a commotion in the main courtyard, Yingmeng, have you found your clothes? It was Song who opened the question.
Of course, Lin Yingxue knew very well in her heart that what the Song family was asking was nonsense, after all, if the Song family didn't know that Lin Yingmeng's clothes were in her courtyard, why did she run over?
"Back to the second aunt, I found it, it's here with the fifth sister!" Seeing everyone from the Lin family coming, Lin Yingmeng also became more and more public, "Fifth sister still refuses to admit it, but the evidence is conclusive, can there be anything wrong with this?" I see, the fifth sister has been in the countryside for a long time, and she has learned all the bad habits of stealing chickens and touching dogs! ”
Lin Yingmeng did not hide her disdain and disgust for Lin Yingxue at all, although others were not as exposed as Lin Yingmeng appeared, they were not much better than Lin Yingmeng.
"Oh, and that like that?" Song Shi looked very surprised and turned to look at Lin Yingxue, "Yingxue, what Yingmeng said is true?" ”
"Is it up to me to decide whether it's true or not?" Lin Yingxue knew that today's punishment would definitely be inevitable, so she simply stopped arguing, and just asked with a sneer.
And the Song family was choked by Lin Yingxue like this, and immediately became a little displeased, "Yingxue, what are you talking about?" If it wasn't done by you, then Mother will naturally find out about it and give you justice, if it was really you......"
"Then don't feel sorry for the fifth sister, you have to punish those who should be punished, otherwise if the matter spreads in the future, how will the people outside laugh at my Lin family?" Before Song's words could speak, Lin Yingling on the side had already taken over the conversation.
Song turned his head to look at his daughter, and remembered what his niece had said to her, and looked at Lin Yingxue's gaze faintly.
The matter has come to this, looking at the people around her who are only thinking about watching a good show, Lin Yingxue simply sneered and stopped talking.
Lin Ying dreamed that Lin Yingxue was silent, and couldn't help but say proudly: "Look, I just said that her hands and feet were not clean, and she refused to admit it before, but now that the second aunt came, she was so scared that she couldn't even speak." Second aunt, when you deal with the fifth sister in a while, you must not favor the fifth sister just because the fifth sister is a person in the second room! ”
The Song family had already thought about it, and wanted to use this matter to teach Lin Yingxue a good lesson, but at this time, Lin Yingmeng's fanning of the flames gave her a reason to be heavy-handed.
"That being said, Ke Yingxue is the young lady of the Lin family after all, and how to deal with it is also a difficult problem......
"What's so difficult about this, if those minions below do such a thing, it will definitely be to abolish their hands and drive them out of the Lin family, now since the offender is the fifth sister, not to mention abolishing both hands, but it's not too much to beat twenty boards." Seeing that the Song family was still hesitant and couldn't make a decision, Lin Yingmeng couldn't help but be a little anxious, and hurriedly suggested on the side.
"This ......" Song Shi's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this, but his face still showed an extremely distressed look and said to Lin Yingxue: "Yingxue, it's not your mother who said you, this theft can be big or small, and now it also happens at home, ten or twenty boards will pass, if it is outside, it may be a matter of small lives that may be guaranteed!" ”
"So my mother thinks that the punishment of twenty boards is not too heavy for you, after all, only when it really hurts, can you know what to do and what not to do." Song's appearance of being kind and painstakingly teaching really looks like a kind housewife.
However, after Lin Yingxue listened to Song's words, there was no other emotion on her face except for a deeper sneer, "If you want to add sin, why bother?" Don't say it, if you want to fight, hurry up. ”
"This ......"
Whether this incident was Lin Yingxue's fault or not, Lin Yingxue's reaction exceeded everyone's expectations, looking at the arrogant girl in front of her who looked indifferent and didn't seem to take them in her eyes at all, everyone only felt a burst of unhappiness in their hearts, but this unhappiness couldn't tell why.
Maybe it's just because the indifferent girl didn't show the reaction they expected, and the feeling of being disappointed made them feel a lot less pleasure when they watched the play.
The Song family originally just wanted to pretend to be a good person in front of everyone, but now seeing that Lin Yingxue is so ignorant, they have no interest in pretending anymore.
She raised her hand and instructed the subordinates who came over in a hurry: "Go and prepare the family law, the fifth lady commits the crime of stealing, and will be fined twenty boards, and the house will be closed for one month." ”
"Yes!"
"Wait!"
The subordinate received the order and was about to leave, but at this time, the eldest lady, who had been silent on the side, suddenly spoke to stop the subordinate's movements.
When the next person heard the sound, he couldn't help but stop his steps, turned his head and looked at the eldest lady Liu suspiciously, and even the others cast a puzzled look at Liu like the next person.
Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Liu couldn't help but purse his lips and smile, and there was a little embarrassed look on his face, "Brother and sister, I shouldn't have intervened when you were doing things, but I don't think Yingxue's child looks like that kind of child with unclean hands and feet, and it seems a little inappropriate to detain such a heavy crime on her with a new coat." ”
"What's more, that kid is still young, what if these twenty boards go down, what if the bones of the body are broken? So I think it's not only for the reputation of the Lin family, but also for the child's body, this matter should be made into a big thing, and a small thing, I don't know what do you think? ”
