Chapter 31: The Truth
Autumn wind courtyard moss invasion steps.
The Lin family's mansion has been around for some years, and the shadow wall of the bright moon and bamboo has climbed up with some wet green moss, and there is a mottled and rotten smell on the face.
Lin Yueqing's face was solemn, and he saw the courtyard full of fluffy grass and wild flowers and crooked branches and leaves, as well as the bamboo curtains that had fallen into disrepair and were damaged, and the rotten lotus leaf lotus canopy full of water spiders in the pond.
She glanced at the courtyard in disgust, went straight into the middle hall and put Ming Yu on the old Taishi chair.
Mingyu sat on the chair and didn't dare to move, his eyes stared nervously at the person in front of him who never let him call his sister, and his little hand subconsciously pinched the corners of his clothes.
Lin Yueqing took a deep breath, his face gloomy, and paced back and forth in the middle hall where there were several empty tables and chairs.
Yun Yuan looked at the young lady's angry appearance on the side, although she was worried in her heart, she didn't dare to come forward to talk.
Lin Yueqing walked and suddenly stopped and looked at Ming Yu, turned around and walked towards the backyard, all the way through the wing room and through the verandah to the back kitchen, she slowly pushed open a corner of the firewood room, and a foul smell came to her face.
She subconsciously held her breath and pushed the door in, and saw the firewood room full of dried fish and bacon and firewood, as well as the corner of the firewood room, the dog kennel seemed to be a mess of rotten quilts, and the fire in her heart couldn't be suppressed in an instant.
She rushed out of the backyard as soon as she could, walked calmly to the gate of the courtyard, and carried Xu's mother, who was still unconscious, into the courtyard.
Yun Kite and Ming Jiu heard the movement and walked out of the middle hall, only to see the eldest lady pressing Mother Xu into the dirty pond, and her beautiful face was full of coldness and murder.
Xu's mother's head went into the pool, and she couldn't breathe for a while, choking and beating her hands.
Lin Yueqing pulled her out of the pool and threw her to the ground, took out an embroidered handkerchief and wiped the splashed water droplets on her hands.
Although the water in the early autumn is not too cold, the cold wind still makes Xu's mother, who has just woken up, feel excited.
She looked up with a shrunken head, her water-soaked hair and crooked emerald hairpins clinging to her scalp, her eyes full of horror and fear.
"Who told you to lock Ming Yu in the wood room?" Lin Yueqing's tone was soaked in coldness, and people couldn't help but tremble as soon as he opened his mouth.
Mother Xu shrank her eyes, slowly wiped the water droplets that kept slipping on her face, and said carefully.
"It's not...... Didn't you let the old slave do this, Miss? ”
Lin Yueqing lowered his eyes and stepped forward and stretched out his hand.
Yun Kite immediately understood what it meant, and hurriedly took the short knife in his hand to the scabbard and handed it over.
Lin Yueqing took the short knife, and the tip of the knife lifted Xu's mother's sharp chin, slowly sliding over her wet cheeks against her eyebrows.
"I only said that I wouldn't let Ming Yu enter my yard, when will you let him be locked up in the firewood room?"
Mother Xu looked at the sharp blade and shrunk her neck in fright, she really didn't understand why Lin Yueqing, who was still disgusted with Ming Yu before, suddenly changed his temper and protected him so much, could it be that Yun Kite's girl chewed on the root of her tongue.
Thinking that her eyes were aimed at the cloud kite who was watching the show, a few traces of viciousness flashed in her eyes.
She rolled her eyes, and wanted to flatter and curry favor again.
"The old slave used to let him live in the backyard wing, but he always likes to run out, and now the house is in debt and everyone has run out, no one takes care of him, and the old slave only locks him in the firewood room." Saying that, she seemed to think of something, and hurriedly sneered, "I've only locked him up for less than a month!" ”
One month! That's it......
Lin Yueqing's face was gloomy and looked at Mother Xu, who was still smiling in front of her, thinking of the second lady Xue in the neighboring mansion, her hand holding the short knife tightened, and finally put it down.
"So, Miss Ben misunderstood you!" Lin Yueqing said and turned around and changed the knife to Yun Kite.
Yun Yuan took the knife, and saw that Mother Xu was not injured in the slightest, although there was some disappointment in her eyes, she still honestly retreated to the side.
Seeing that Lin Yueqing didn't make any more trouble, Mother Xu slowly exhaled a breath, patted the dirt on her hands, and stood up very freely.
She has long been accustomed to Lin Yueqing's violent and unrestrained temperament, and she has encountered this kind of sometimes gloomy and sometimes manic thing a few times, but she didn't take it too seriously.
"Miss is the lady of the sky, Xu Tanhualang's future wife, it's not a big deal to scold the old slave for a few words, why are you wrong!" She took two steps forward and said flatteringly with a smile on her face.
Yue Qing listened to this, and finally knew why this body was so unpopular before, with such a nurturing mother holding her high, coupled with the violent poison there, it was difficult to say a few words.
She endured the anger in her heart, raised her eyes and glanced at Xu's mother, smiled and gritted her teeth.
"Mother Xu is really good at talking!"
Mother Xu on the side tightened her cold body when she heard this.
"What the old slave said was the truth."
Lin Yueqing smiled coldly when he heard this.
"Okay, hurry down and change your clothes, Miss Ben hasn't eaten lunch yet, go prepare a few dishes!"
"Okay young lady, the old slave will go right away!"
Saying that, Mother Xu saluted and slowly withdrew from the courtyard.
She walked through the moon gate in the courtyard, gritted her teeth and spat on it, turned her head and glanced at the place where Lin Yueqing was, and turned her head to walk in the direction of the courtyard of the neighboring Madam Xue.
