Chapter 50: Befriending

How similar is Ah Quan's situation now to Lin Yingxue back then?

Although Ah Quan argued in every possible way, saying that this matter had nothing to do with him, and he dispensed medicine to the old lady in strict accordance with the medicinal materials and dosage written on the prescription, who in the Lin family would believe him?

Seeing Ah Quan crying and being dragged down, Lin Yingxue had no emotion on her face.

After everyone dispersed, Lin Yingxue did not return to Biluoxuan, but went to the eldest lady's Fengqi Courtyard.

The eldest lady had just arrived in the courtyard, and when she saw Lin Yingxue coming, she hurriedly greeted her with a smile, "Yingxue is here, come quickly, come in and sit." ”

"Yes." Lin Yingxue responded with a light smile, looked around, but didn't find Lin Yingxin's shadow, she must have gone to some lady's room to sit.

"Yingxue has been home for a while, how used to staying in the house?" The eldest lady took Lin Yingxue's hand and sat down, and asked Lin Yingxue about her current situation affectionately.

The concern that permeated his eyes was sincere and sincere, not at all like the hypocrisy of other Lin family members.

Lin Yingxue's heart warmed, and she remembered the last time the eldest lady interceded for her, she couldn't help but stand up and salute the eldest lady seriously, "Yingxue was misunderstood last time, thank you for speaking for Yingxue, this love, Yingxue remembered it in her heart." ”

"This kid!" However, the eldest lady glanced at her with disgust, and while pulling her to sit down again, she said softly: "It's just a little thing, what is not humane, not to mention that I didn't really help you that day." ”

Lin Yingxue pursed her lips and smiled, although she didn't say anything more, but she secretly thought to herself: Just by virtue of the person in front of her who was able to stand up and speak for her that day, it was enough for her to remember it.

However, what made her puzzled was: "Why did the eldest aunt stand up and help Yingxue speak that day, what if it was really Yingxue who was greedy for a moment and took the fourth sister's new clothes?" ”

"Then I can only blame the eldest aunt for seeing the wrong person." The eldest lady winked at Lin Yingxue, although she was already a woman in her thirties, but at this moment, Lin Yingxue saw a trace of girlish playfulness from the well-maintained woman in front of her.

Lin Yingxue continued to look at the eldest lady suspiciously, only to hear the eldest lady continue: "You have been in the mansion for so long, I look coldly at you as a smart girl, acting low-key and calm, not like a child at all. Even if you really covet the jewelry and clothes of the other ladies, the eldest aunt believes that you must have a better and more upright way to get them, instead of acting so stupidly and recklessly, leaving clues and grasping the handles. ”

When the eldest lady said this, there was a shallow smile in her gentle eyes. In a trance, Lin Yingxue seemed to see her dead mother through these eyes, and in her memory, the only person who would look at her with such a gentle smile and talk was her gentle and kind mother.

"Yingxue? Reflecting the snow? Seeing that the person in front of her suddenly started to be stunned, the eldest lady couldn't help but call softly twice.

"Huh?" Lin Yingxue pulled her thoughts back from her past memories, she looked at the eldest lady who was looking at her with a concerned face, and smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, auntie, Yingxue just suddenly remembered someone......"

She lowered her head, showing a rare gesture of sadness in front of people.

"The person you think of is Wanxin." The eldest lady saw through Lin Yingxue's mind at a glance, and said the long-lost name for Lin Yingxue.

"Wanxin is a good girl, but her temperament is softer and her blessings are thinner...... But fortunately, you don't have a temperament like her, otherwise you don't know how much you will suffer in the future. The eldest lady said softly, and there was a sigh in her tone.

Lin Yingxue didn't answer, she lowered her eyelids, and her long eyelashes fanned slightly, covering the sadness overflowing from her dark eyes.

"Alas, it's not easy for you to sit down with your aunt, don't talk about these unhappy things!" Seeing that Lin Yingxue's mood was obviously low, the eldest lady hurriedly changed the topic, "I only have one daughter under my knees, Yingxin, and after a while, she will get married, and then I will be left alone in this courtyard. ”

The eldest lady's words really diverted Lin Yingxue's attention: "The eldest sister is getting married?" Has the date been set? She asked, confused.

Lin Yingxin and King Jing, the younger brother of Jinshang, have already had a marriage contract, but the date of marriage has not been determined, and now listening to the meaning of the eldest lady, I am afraid that a good thing is coming.

"Well, about ......" The eldest lady nodded with a smile, and was about to speak, when there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps in the courtyard.

Yes, the eldest lady couldn't help but stop talking and turned her head to look at the courtyard with Lin Yingxue.

The eldest lady was fine, but Lin Yingxue was involuntarily stunned when she saw the person coming. Just as she was distracted, the man also walked quickly into the main hall.

"Second master." The eldest lady's voice seemed to have suddenly pulled Lin Yingxue back from a certain state of distraction, and she hurriedly bowed down and saluted, and said in a low voice: "I've seen my father." ”

Lin Zhengjie has always been busy with official business, so this is the first time that Lin Yingxue has officially met her father since she came to the Lin family.

Lin Zhengjie glanced at Lin Yingxue after hearing Lin Yingxue's voice, and didn't recognize Lin Yingxue for a while, but said after a while: "Are you Yingxue?" ”

"Yes." Lin Yingxue nodded, although she didn't have much affection for her father, but in the end, Lin Zhengjie's reaction still stabbed her heart slightly.

"Grown up." I haven't gotten along with my daughter for a long time, Lin Zhengjie didn't know what to say for a while, and after being silent for a long time, he only popped out these four words that didn't hurt.

Lin Yingxue barely suppressed the sourness in her heart, and said as usual: "There are still some things in Yingxue Courtyard, so I won't bother my aunt and father, Yingxue will leave." ”

Seeing Lin Zhengjie coming to Liu in a hurry, there must be something to discuss with Liu, so she will not stay here so uninterestingly and disturb the conversation between the two.

After leaving the Fengqi Courtyard, Lin Yingxue was a little stunned all the way, so she didn't even know when Murong Jun came and how she got to her courtyard.

"What? I couldn't even clean up the fourth miss today, so I'm unhappy? It wasn't until Murong Jun's usual breezy voice sounded in her ears that Lin Yingxue was shocked to realize that there was someone else in front of her.

"Why are you here?" Lin Yingxue was unprepared, and was naturally startled by the sudden sound.

"Miss Lin asked this strangely, her legs are on me, so naturally I can go wherever I want, is this Lin Mansion a rule that cannot be stepped in by His Royal Highness?" Murong Jun's charming peach blossom eyes looked at Lin Yingxue with interest, where was the slightest bit of dignity as a prince in that idle style.

Lin Yingxue saw it in her eyes, and couldn't help but give Murong Jun a roll of her eyes, "The words of the Third Highness reminded me, in the future, I should put up a sign at the gate of my courtyard, saying that the Third Highness and dogs are not allowed to enter." ”
