Chapter 140: Uproar
It was Lin Wenhai, Xiaobai turned around, saw that he seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and said, "I'm just here to see, and I'll leave after a while." ”
"Don't hurry to go, go and sit in my room, I haven't seen you for a long time, I have a lot to say to you." Lin Wenhai was standing at the door, and he didn't know who told him that Xiaobai was here, and he didn't even wear a coat, so he hurriedly ran over.
Xiaobai smiled: "How do you know I'm here?" I don't wear a piece of clothing, what should I do if I get sick? ”
"I just came back from the Chamber of Commerce, it was Xiliang who told me, the carriage I sat in is not cold, let's go, if I don't go back, I will be really sick."
But Xiaobai didn't move, she said: "Everyone in this house knows that the old lady is weak, and Dr. Nan has told her a thousand times that the old lady can't be allowed to eat cold things, for this, Sister Wufang doesn't let the big kitchen cook the old lady's food, and she and Meiyu boiled it herself as small as a bowl of porridge." ”
Lin Wenhai nodded and said: "Yes, after a few years, it is finally better, but in the end, people are old and in poor health, like a bucket full of holes, no matter how you plug it." ”
"But look at this." Xiaobai pointed to the osmanthus cake and crab roe cake on the table, "Sister Wufang knows that this is a cold thing, and the old lady just tasted it, only one bite, and the person is gone, don't you think it's strange?" I can't figure it out, the big kitchen doesn't know if the old lady is not in good health, or on purpose, what is not good, I have to send this! ”
Lin Wenhai's brows instantly twisted together, and he turned around and said, "Geely!" Call all the people in the big kitchen! When Geely ran away, he said, "I've been busy these days, thanks to you, I found this." ”
"I hope all this is just me guessing, Young Master Lin, don't blame me for being troublesome."
"No, it won't."
The two of them just stood in place, no one spoke again, after a cup of tea, Geely brought all the people in the big kitchen, but the movement was too big, even the people in Lin Zhang's courtyard followed, if it wasn't for Shang Ting blocking more than half of the excitement, I am afraid that there would be no one standing inside and outside this courtyard.
Lin Zhangshi saw Lin Wenhai standing at the door, a little unhappy, and said: "It doesn't matter if you don't come back to see your father, Master Yao has been waiting for you, and Ting'er and his father are also waiting to see you, why did you come here instead?" Your grandmother has just been buried, what's the trouble! ”
Lin Wenhai didn't like Lin Zhang's name for Shang Ting, he ignored Lin Zhang's words, looked at the people standing in the big kitchen in a row below, pointed to Lainiang and said, "You come out!" I have a few words for you. ”
Lainiang was frightened and walked out tremblingly, but she didn't dare to look up.
"On the night of the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, who made the osmanthus cake and crab roe cake sent to the old lady?"
"It was the slave and the aunt who did it together."
This is actually true, but now Lin Wenhai's face is darker than the bottom of the pot, everyone will think crookedly, think shallowly, will think about what taboo these two things have committed? Thinking deeply, I have probably made up a whole set of stories about murder for money.
Aunt Ma hurriedly ran out to explain, but her feet were soft and fell to the ground, and even the mother fell together, Aunt Ma swallowed and spit, and her heart seemed to jump to her throat, "Young master, that thing is not fake that we did, but the thing was prepared by Miss Cousin, and the young master was busy with things outside, so I don't know, that night's banquet, from beginning to end, was Miss Cousin's Zhang Luo, we only moved the stove, and nothing else stretched out our hands!" ”
"Miss Cousin?" Lin Wenhai frowned, if Aunt Ma hadn't mentioned it, he would have forgotten about it, Zhang Qiaoqiao, who hid in Lin Zhang's courtyard and frolicked with Lin Wenjuan all day long! "What about people!"
Lin Zhang pushed the person behind him in, and said, "Wenhai, what's wrong, you have to make it clear!" What should I do if I come out to ask questions for no reason, so that people misunderstand? I can tell you, the banquet that day was my idea, I think Qiaoqiao is not too small, and she can't do anything, so she makes the decision and lets her handle it, if you don't do it well, you can scold her in private, in front of so many people, where do you put her face? She's your cousin. ”
"Come out for me!" Lin Wenhai shouted, and the courtyard, where there was still some discussion, suddenly could be heard. But Zhang Qiaoqiao hid behind Lin Zhang's and didn't plan to stand outside at all, Lin Wenhai was annoyed and shouted: "Geely! Drag her out for me! ”
"I see who dares!" Lin Zhang was also annoyed, she didn't believe that her son dared to be disobedient.
But Jili is Lin Wenhai's little servant, he walked over in a few steps, and dragged Zhang Qiaoqiao to the front with a slight tug, Zhang Qiaoqiao's face was frightened white at this moment, no matter what Lin Wenhai's intention was to ask these two dim sums, she couldn't bury herself in it anyway. "Cousin, I really don't have bad intentions, I just saw that my grandmother didn't eat anything that night, and I was afraid that she would be hungry, so I asked the kitchen to make it."
Lin Wenhai endured his anger and said, "Okay, you have been in the Lin family for a short time, I don't blame you, but what about the two of you?" He pointed to Lainiang and Aunt Ma and said, "How long have you been in the house?" The old lady is weak and can't eat cold snacks, don't you know? ”
Aunt Ma hurriedly said, "The young master is wrong to blame us, let's say it!" We told Miss Biao that she insisted on us making it, the glutinous rice in the osmanthus cake, and the crab roe crispy crab roe were all prepared by Miss Biao alone. The slave thought that the old lady wouldn't eat these anyway, so she only made a little bit and sent it away, the conscience of heaven and earth, the young master is clear! ”
Before this, Lin Zhang's didn't know that the big kitchen had sent a supper to Mrs. Lin that night, and this supper was still a cold glutinous rice osmanthus cake and crab roe cake, but even if she knew it at this time, she couldn't say anything, after all, those who don't know are not guilty, Zhang Qiaoqiao is kind! "You two slaves! Do you want to say that Miss Biao prepared something bad for the old lady? What season is it now, and you think that crab fell from the sky? She was kind enough to let you do it, who knows if you two did anything! ”
"Wronged!" The two of them shouted injustice together, and the disaster fell from the sky, and they couldn't hide from it.
"Don't shout grievances with me here, and when the master comes to ask you, I'm afraid you won't say it!" Lin Zhang snorted coldly, and was about to ask Guo'er to call Lin Dongyue to come.
Unexpectedly, Lin Wenhai scolded: "Mother, you are so partial to her, is there something you don't want me to know!" ”
Lin Zhang's face turned white in an instant, "What does my mother have to hide from you!" But Diao slaves bully the master, my mother doesn't want them to lie to you! Mother doesn't know why you are asking this, but if you suspect that your grandmother went because she ate these two snacks, Mother doesn't want you to wronged a good person, Qiaoqiao is a good heart, and the old lady will also understand her. ”
"yes, cousin, I really didn't mean to, I didn't know that grandmother couldn't eat these... I was just... I just listened to the advice of others and wanted to sell a good sentence in front of Mrs. Lin, but Zhang Qiaoqiao didn't dare to say it. She wanted to marry Lin Wenhai, but recently there were rumors in the house, saying that the young lady in this house was afraid that she was going to set a girl from the business, so she wanted to talk to Mrs. Lin.
Lin Wenhai didn't know what to do for a while, the matter was actually very clear, no one had any crooked intentions to be cruel to Mrs. Lin, but Zhang Qiaoqiao's sycophants were not good, so something went wrong, they were all kind and wrong, and those who didn't know were not guilty.
But at this moment, Xiaobai suddenly came, and when Lin Zhang's entered the courtyard, she left from the small door, and at this moment, she actually invited Dr. Nan to come.
As soon as Lin Zhang's saw Xiaobai, his face instantly darkened, why did this girl choose to appear at such a time? "You came to worship the old lady, you should go to the front, what are you doing here?"
Xiaobai saluted slightly and said, "If I don't come, won't I let the murderer go?" ”
There was an uproar in the courtyard!
