Chapter 55: The Past
If you want to talk about why Mrs. Wen is so unaccustomed to the people of the Duan family, it has to start from a long time ago.
For a long time, before Mrs. Wen San got married, people still called her Lin Weilan.
Lin Weilan's brother Lin Weihe and Duan Zhiming are classmates and friends, studying in the same academy and under the name of the same gentleman, both of whom are proud of the sky. It's just that Duan Zhiming died early because of his biological mother's early death, and his stepmother was unkind, so he tended to be dark in his life, and he didn't have many friends in the academy, only Lin Weihe often accompanied him.
In the academy, whether it is a husband or a fellow student, they prefer to deal with Lin Weihe.
Especially in the year when Lin Weihe and Duan Zhiming participated in the imperial examination together, the gentleman in the academy once said in front of the two of them that Duan Zhiming was not strong-willed, and it would be difficult to get good results even if he went to the Gongyuan, and persuaded him to polish for another year and participate in the imperial examination again in the next year.
What the gentleman said may have been the straw that broke the camel's back.
Duan Zhiming has not been the same person since then.
He began to learn from Lin Weihe's appearance, as if he had left all his dark thoughts behind, and could talk to the people of the world gracefully, showing a harmless appearance with the world.
A month before the imperial examination, Duan Zhiming asked Lin Weihe to go to the suburbs for horse racing.
Lin Weihe wanted to refuse, but he couldn't bear Duan Zhiming's hard persuasion, and finally agreed.
Some requests can't be easily agreed, and you never know how many black thoughts are hidden under the harmless faces of other people.
also went to the suburbs, Duan Zhiming was safe and sound, and not even a single hair was injured.
What about Lin Weihe?
Lin Weilan still can't forget the appearance of his brother being sent home that day, his white clothes were stained with blood, and he couldn't even breathe.
The doctor who invited him said that one of my brother's eyes could no longer be cured, and although his two legs were broken, he was rescued in time, and it should be possible to restore his ability to walk normally in the future.
Disfigured, lame, unconscious for three months.
The above three, even if only one of them is committed, is enough to ruin a person's path to the imperial examination.
What's more, Lin Weihe is all three!
After waking up, Lin Weihe didn't mention the imperial examination, and the people of the Lin family also asked him where those injuries came from. But he never said it, only that life is impermanent.
Later, Duan Zhiming won the ranking of Tanhualang in the imperial examination that year, and he was so unhappy to fight on the streets.
The scenery is strong, and he even asked someone to propose to Lin Weilan.
Then he was beaten out by Lin Weihe with a stick, and it was at that time that Lin Weihe really broke off with Duan Zhimingen.
As long as it is done, it will inevitably leave traces, even if it cannot be proved by evidence in person, but after the only remaining clues are strung into a line, the hidden truth will be revealed.
At that time, Duan Zhiming was still a fledgling, and what he did could not be done seamlessly, so without Lin Weihe saying a word, the people of the Lin family still found some clues and found out the truth.
It's nothing more than a white-eyed wolf who doesn't care about his classmates at all, and assassinates others for his own selfishness.
And Lin Weihe's bad luck is not bad, Duan Zhiming's initial game was to make him startled, and he broke his muscles and bones for hundreds of days, but in addition to some accidents in the implementation, Lin Weihe was injured like that.
These can only show that Lin Weihe's luck is not good, and his luck is not bad is another matter.
Having said that, it is precisely because he knows Duan Zhiming's true face that Lin Weilan hates the people of the Duan family so much.
It's not that she didn't tell Mu Qingying these things, but how can the girl in the boudoir be able to compete with the rhetoric of someone with a heart?
Seeing that Mrs. Wen was about to bring up the past again, Mrs. Duan put the cup in her hand back to its original place, and the crisp sound of porcelain colliding made the sound of the room quiet.
The pale face of the untouched fan is like a mask, hiding all the sincerity under the skin.
Mrs. Duan's voice was very soft, like a cloud floating in the sky, and it dispersed as soon as the wind blew.
"I know that Ah Yu is a good child, and Wei Lan doesn't want her to marry into Duan Mansion, so don't marry! As for the rumors from the outside world, when I go back and find a time, I will clarify them ......"
Mrs. Wen San touched her stomach uncomfortably, I don't know if it was her illusion, Mrs. Duan, her close friend Mu Qingying, looked very different today, and vaguely gave people a sense of uncertainty like the moon in the water and the flowers in the mirror.
For a while, she didn't know whether to care about Mrs. Duan first, or to solve Ah Yu's matter first.
In the end, the mother's heart is stronger, and if Mrs. Duan really has any problems, she alone will definitely not be able to solve it, and in the end she has to go back to find others to help, so let's start with a simple one!
She hesitated for a moment and said: "Why wait any longer, in the past, you wanted to recognize Ah Shen as a righteous daughter, but now that there are such rumors from the outside world, it is difficult to clarify, it is better to directly implement the relationship between you and Ah Shen, only you and Ah Shen have nothing to do with the Duan family." ”
Actually, this was not the method that Mrs. Wen San discussed with Mr. Wen San at the beginning.
The current one is what she played on the spot.
Since entering Duan's Mansion today, Mrs. Wen San found that Mrs. Duan's situation was not as good as she had shown before, and maybe even worse than what she saw today, so she proposed to let Ah Yu recognize Mrs. Duan as her stepmother.
First, it can solve the rumors in front of you, and secondly, it also has a bit of the meaning that mothers are more expensive than children.
With this relationship between mother and daughter, when she wanted to stand up for Mrs. Duan, her position became firmer.
Mrs. Duan's movements froze, rubbing the small leaf red sandalwood Buddha beads on her wrist, and the light in her eyes disappeared, and finally froze for a moment.
I saw her shake her head gently: "Duan Mansion is like mud in a river pond to you, and you have always been the most reluctant to get involved." I will definitely clarify the rumors myself, and as for the recognition of relatives, I should not mention it again. ”
If Mrs. Wen first mentioned the matter of recognizing her relatives, it was impulsive, and she only had seven or eight points of willingness in her heart, then it would have become ten out of ten now.
She held Mrs. Duan's hand, and was surprised to find that these hands were actually bone-chilling, she was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to warm Mrs. Duan.
Mrs. Duan shook her head, picked up the hot tea on the table again, and held the cup in both hands: "You know, since Nannan's death, my body has not been better, and cold hands and feet are common, which is not surprising." ”
was so preemptively said by her, but Mrs. Wen didn't know what to say.
For a while, it was not to open an opening, nor was it not to open an opening.
