Chapter 28: Persuasion
Seeing that the matter of Fumanlou had been settled, and there was one more chef who seemed to be quite powerful, Si Linche was also relieved, and after Si Yi cleaned up, the two of them left directly.
After returning to the Sifu, he had just returned to his house, and was about to change out of his long shirt that was stained with the smell of oil smoke, when he heard Si Yi's voice outside the door, "Madam, it's getting dark, are you still coming to see Gongzi?" ”
"Or else? Didn't I come back to you before? Lin seemed a little displeased.
Si Linche sighed slightly, if he let Si Yi continue to speak, I am afraid that it will make his mother angry.
Thinking of this, he stopped what he was doing, pushed the door and walked out, "Mother, come in quickly, it's cold at night." ”
As soon as Lin saw him, he hurriedly stepped forward in a hurry, his brows furrowed slightly, "Are you okay?" And that cloud is fine, right? ”
Hearing this question, Si Linche's expression on his face was slightly pale, "Both of us are fine, mother doesn't have to worry." ”
"This Si Wenyuan is really getting more and more arrogant, and now he is too lazy to hide his things, it seems that he wants to completely tear his face with you." Lin's tone was a little disdainful, and his heart was also extremely cold, now that their mother and son were walking on thin ice in the Si Mansion, even Si Wenyuan was beginning to become more and more unscrupulous.
Si Linche's eyes were slightly dark, his eyelids were lowered, and he didn't say a word, and when Lin saw this, he had to continue to ask, "What do you want to do next?" If this happens a few more times, what will you do with your mother? ”
Lin's worries were not unreasonable, Si Linche also knew that she was frightened by this incident, her face softened, and she said softly, "Mother doesn't need to worry, I have arranged for two guards to protect Geng Geng secretly, and the guards in our house have also been reinforced, so he can't make any waves." ”
"Now that you have an idea, I'm relieved." Lin's pale face regained a trace of blood, and then she frowned slightly, as if she was thinking about something, Si Linche didn't open her mouth to urge, and looked at her quietly.
After a long time, she made up her mind and said, "Forget about you and that cloudy matter, now the whole city has spread the news of her abduction, one day and one night, the lonely man and widow have already lost their reputation, and they are not worthy of you at all." ”
Si Linche didn't expect her to say such a thing at this time, and she was slightly angry in her heart, but after all, it was her mother, and she said this for her own consideration, so she still patiently explained, "Mother, don't say that, although Geng Geng was taken captive, but the hunter didn't take advantage, how can you listen to the rumors?" ”
After saying this, his expression gradually became firm, and he looked directly into Lin's eyes, "Moreover, I only recognize her in my life, as long as she does not mention canceling the marriage contract, I will never leave her." ”
The Lin family knew that his son was stubborn, and what he insisted on was difficult to change, and it was useless to say more, so he should start from Yun Genggeng's side, find a time to meet her one day, take some silver taels as compensation, and let her leave by herself.
In her heart, she didn't show it on her face, and she bowed her head slightly and said gently, "Since you are so insistent, then I can't say anything, you can rest, I'll go back to the room first." ”
"Mother walks slowly."
Seeing the Lin family gradually walk away until he disappeared, Si Linche was still standing by the door and did not move for a long time, and Si Yi on the side came up, "Childe, why are you still standing here?" Madame didn't say it all just now, no longer hindering you and Sister Geng Geng's affairs, why are you still worried? ”
"It's not this matter that worries me, it's Si Wenyuan." Si Linche sighed slightly.
Si Yi scratched his head, his eyes were full of puzzlement, "Isn't Si Wenyuan's matter already resolved?" Why is Childe bothered? ”
Hearing this, Si Linche's narrow eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his lips were pulled as if he was smiling, "Today's matter is indeed solved, but he can have a next time, next time, is to know when he will make another attack on you Sister Geng Geng, it seems that I can't continue to sit still." ”
Today, Si Wenyuan did not hide his malice towards Geng Geng at all, and even more nonsense when he went to court, it seemed that he couldn't hold it back, and now if he continued to endure it, he was afraid that it would make him even more arrogant.
And now the competition within the Si family sect is becoming increasingly fierce, and the people of each family are ready to move, a few days ago, Si Ling just twisted his foot, and various voices appeared, asking for the selection of the patriarch, it seems that he really can't wait.
Now the patriarch of the Si family clan is Si Ling in the family, the elder of the Si family, and the fourth uncle of Si Wenyuan, although so, he is completely different from Si Wenyuan, he is honest and fair.
When Si Linche's father was still alive, the two had a very good relationship, and Si Ling was Si Ling's father's most powerful assistant and the most trusted person in their family's clan.
At that time, after his father's death, Si Wenyuan couldn't wait to come out and compete with him for the position of patriarch, at that time, there were many changes, he didn't have so much effort to intrigue with Si Wenyuan, and Si Wenyuan's family had a lot of relationship with most of the Si family's own sect, so most of them were optimistic about Si Wenyuan, and few people supported him.
Si Ling tried his best to disagree with the public, and expressed his support for himself in front of everyone, because he was quite authoritative in his sect, so there was a stalemate in the clan for a while, in order to calm down and temporarily solve this problem, everyone decided to let Si Ling temporarily act as the acting patriarch, and deal with affairs with him.
The matter has always been under control, but recently the Si family seems to be unable to hold back, a few days ago Si Ling just twisted his foot, Si Wenyuan, together with many people from the sect, on the grounds that he was old and needed to rest, asked Si Ling to choose the patriarch as soon as possible.
Now it seems that the election of the patriarch is imminent, Si Ling told himself that day, and now he needs to be more cautious in doing things, thinking of this, Si Linche sighed slightly, turned around and walked towards the study.
Si Yi saw that he was silent for a long time, and went to the study silently, standing there and feeling confused, so he had to follow.
Si Linche took out all the account books that Si Ling had brought before, picked up the lamp and began to settle the accounts, and Si Yi stood aside and accompanied him silently.
It wasn't until the middle of the night that all the account books were sorted out, Si Yi had already dozed off on the side, Si Linche couldn't help but chuckle and shook his head when he saw this, and he thought of Yun Genggen inexplicably in his mind, and he didn't know if she had fallen asleep at this time.
Thinking of the person's smiling appearance, Si Linche's originally heavy mood became a little lighter, and a little softer color appeared in his deep eyes.
