Chapter 2 The dove occupies the magpie's nest
Lin Tingyun snorted coldly after sitting down.
I looked at the plate of steamed pork shoots in front of me, but in the afterglow was the plate of braised pork in front of the lady next to me.
The contest between the two elders of the Lin family, I don't know how many I've seen since I was a child, but this time the reason is different.
It was still the eldest lady's maidservant Yongniang who opened her mouth: "Why don't you add two stools and take two more dishes and chopsticks!" ”
A meal, it is estimated that most of the food is not tasteful, I don't have any worries, the food in my yard is all year round, it is rare to have such a rich time!
Therefore, with an elegant eating appearance, I ate to my heart's content.
During the banquet, my father, who had been ignoring me all the year round, said a few innocuous words to me, presumably begging for a bore in the big room, and the other rooms had always seen the wind and the rudder, and they didn't dare to oppose the big lady openly, so they thought of me!
It's just that I don't know if he really doesn't know, or forgot, I, the daughter of the second room, are not furnishings for the Lin family!
It's just that to my surprise, the zero lady is a clever one, and she actually saw that I noticed the braised pork in front of her for ten minutes, and moved to me unconsciously.
I am very grateful to her for that.
After eating, it was already dark, and we couldn't see our fingers, and our master and servant were walking on the road.
There were scattered stars hanging in the sky, and the trowels were muttering quietly all the way.
"Miss, I see that today's young lady doesn't seem to be a good person, after a meal, she doesn't know how many glances she secretly looked at you and the eldest lady, at first glance, it is very urban, Miss will see her in the future, but be careful!"
I chuckled: "You girl has finally learned something, I am very pleased, very relieved!" ”
Seeing me making fun of me, the ruffle couldn't hold it on his face and begged Mama Zhang for help.
"Mama, you say, isn't that young lady a good friend!"
"Eyebrows, eyes, and thoughts, this girl, even if she is put in the palace, she is also a powerful character!"
At that time, I didn't pay much attention to it, but I was just curious about how such a powerful character was.
The next morning, before I had finished washing, I saw the trowels hurrying in.
"It's a big deal, miss!"
"What's going on here?" I asked.
"The eldest lady and the master have a quarrel!"
I held a mahogany comb in my hand and shaved my black hair: "Got a fuss?" Haven't you been making a fuss? ”
"This time is different, sir, he wants to make Zou his wife, ranked, second!"
Zou is the woman who dragged her family a few days ago, the peach comb fell to the ground, and Mama Zhang picked it up and combed it for me again.
The ruffle asked carefully, "Miss, are you okay?" ”
The second lady of the Lin family was originally in the position of my mother Yin Ying, but unfortunately she worked hard to raise me until I was 6 years old, and it was when I was ignorant that she died of illness.
My mother is a non-contentious, indifferent to fame and fortune, from the most prestigious scholarly family in the city.
It's a pity that I was born in a society that values business over capital, and before I got married, I still had fine clothes and food, and I had nothing to worry about, but the days after marriage were a different scene.
The eldest lady and the third lady, including the head of the Lin family, are all from a business family, and their mercenary nature is innate, so it is conceivable that my mother's life is very difficult!
I steadied myself: "What did the eldest lady say?" ”
Runzi said: "The eldest lady refused to die, not to mention that there is no such reason to intervene in the foot, that is, to be a concubine, you must come according to the etiquette and rules, and said that if this is really the case, then she will be divorced first!" ”
"Let's go, let's see!"
Along the blue and white stone face, my steps were a little messy.
Mama Zhang pondered: "Miss, if the eldest lady can't compete with the master, what will you do?" ”
I stopped: "I'm alive in the Lin Mansion, but even if I fight for my life, I can't let people take my mother's place!" ”
In the courtyard of the eldest lady, everything that should have come is almost here!
As soon as I entered, the third lady became more enthusiastic about me than ever.
"Three girls, come and sit here!"
The eldest lady and Lin Tingyun sat upright with red faces.
"Then what is the origin of the Zou family? A dozen young men are mixed in the pile, and there is a girl who has reached the age of being out of the cabinet, to put it bluntly, it is a widow, and I don't know what the origin of the widow is, can also fascinate you like this......"
"Smack"!
Lin Tingyun slapped the table heavily, it can be seen that she is not lightly angry, and the eldest lady is also like suddenly dumb, and she will not continue.
"Today, I have made up my mind about the matter of the Zou family, in the Lin Mansion, if anyone of you is not used to seeing her, just avoid her, hide, and I will also let her stay quiet, live her own life, I don't have to prick your eyes!"
My heart is cold, it's ridiculous, if it weren't for my mother's position, who would have the leisure to care about your things that can't be put on the table!
The eldest lady's tone was anxious and angry: "Master, what do you mean by dividing the Lin Mansion into two families?" ”
Lin Tingyun snorted coldly!
Uncle Lin, the housekeeper in the house, hurriedly came in from the outside and whispered something in Lin Tingyun's ear.
Lin Tingyun got up, glanced at the eldest lady quite angrily, and then walked out of the door with his sleeves brushed.
After a while, the old lady of the Lin family came in with the support of Lin Tingyun and Lin Ruilan.
The old lady of the Lin family, Lin Tingyun's biological mother, the old lady Lin died early, leaving orphans and widows, fortunately there were two shops in Du'an City, although they were not rich and expensive, but they also had no worries about food and clothing.
Mrs. Lin is a hard person, and she hates this concubine very much, but she can't stand Lin Tingyun's soft grinding and hard bubbles, and she turns a blind eye to many things.
Looking at this situation now, it should be Lin Ruilan who invited Mrs. Lin down from the Foyin Temple, thinking that in addition to Lin Tingyun, only Lin Ruilan has this ability.
"Old lady, I can't take care of this house, the master wants to hide Jiao in the golden house, and he wants to set up another door for the Zou family, you better come back and take care of it!"
The old lady sneered lightly: "How can there be a reason to come and go freely in this world, since you have taken over this burden from me, no matter how hot your hands are, you have to admit it!" ”
This right to be in charge of the house was also obtained from the old lady by the eldest lady in some ways, and she also knew that it was a loss to say this, so she lowered her voice: "But the Zou family ......"
Lin Ruilan said: "Mother, don't worry, since the old lady has gone down the mountain, she has her own ideas. ”
"Go and get that mother and daughter!"
After the mother and daughter came, the old lady still said some short things in the family, and completely ignored the two of them!
