Lin Yongmei bent down and touched the little boy's plush hair lovingly, and kissed him on the forehead.

Qingbai saw that the time was almost up, took the little boy by the hand and took him out, and closed the rickety wooden door of the firewood room by the way.

The little boy's small figure gradually disappeared, and the snooping eyes of the family members were also blocked, and only Yan Xiaoyi, Rong Xiu and Lin Yongmei were left in the firewood room.

Lin Yongmei withdrew her gaze from the door, and her expression suddenly recovered from the love and warmth just now to arrogance.

She crossed her arms around her shoulders, her eyes swept between Yan Xiaoyun and Rong Xiu, and finally landed on Yan Xiaoyi's body, and said in a mansheng voice: "If you have something to say, just say it!" ”

Yan Xiaoyun turned her head to look at Rong Xiu, and saw that he nodded slightly to her, so she slowly spoke: "Second aunt, I look at your feelings for another son, which is very unusual. We have already explained the previous conditions very clearly, as long as you explain what you know, then I will see a doctor for Ling Gongzi. ”

Yan Xiaowei smiled self-deprecatingly: "Although, it is really not enough for a gentleman to use a mother's love for her child as a bargaining chip." However, for the sake of the rivers and mountains of the Hundred Mile Dynasty, as well as the people of Li under the sky, they have to do so. ”

"And", Yan Xiaoyi's eyes shone on Lin Yongmei's body like a candle: "Ling Gongzi is not very old, but he is a good boy who knows good and evil." As his mother, as a person close to him, you don't want to ruin your good image in his mind, right? Taking a step back, if you refuse to confess, then we will have to arrest you and wait for the fate of the above. That Ling Gongzi can only be separated from you. ”

"So", Rong Xiu heard this, took a deep look at the whitened woman who bit her lips opposite, and took over the conversation: "Don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, even if it is for the little son of your family, you have to make a solemn plan!" ”

Lin Yongmei seemed to have imagined something, a pair of curved eyebrows were tightly twisted, and the hands hanging on her sides were clenched into fists.

After a while, she sighed heavily and slowly told everything about it.

"I was an orphan and for as long as I could remember, I had no parents around. When I was a child, I was sold to a village family as a child daughter-in-law, and the family beat and scolded me every day, and since I was five or six years old, I knew that I had to help the family work, otherwise there would be no food. ”

She suddenly laughed sarcastically: "The boy in that family is a cripple, and his personality is very irritable, and whenever he is a little unhappy, he will be angry with me." Of course, I can't fight back. Otherwise, his father and mother would have beaten me even worse. ”

I didn't expect that this woman in front of her, who behaved a little frivolously, would have such a pitiful experience. Yan Xiaowei suddenly recalled that when she just woke up from this world, she was also adopted by a villager family, and she also had endless work to do every day, and if she did something wrong, she would be beaten and scolded by that family. Come to think of it, it was like the hardest months I've ever lived.

You have to find a way to break free from the panic and fear of suddenly falling into this world, and you have to deal with the old and young of that family. In just a few months, she seems to be living like a year.

Because of her own experience, she couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for the woman in front of her. She had been through those things since she was very young, and how much hurt and pain should it have been for her?

However, Lin Yongmei didn't seem to need the sympathy and pity of others, and the corners of her mouth even provoked a smile: "That's it, a few years have passed." I finally reached the age of twelve, and one day, I went to the county seat with a fellow villager to catch a market. In the bazaar, I took advantage of the crowd and escaped from the fellow. And just like that, I was far away from the place that suffocated me. ”

Saying this, her smile suddenly carried a hint of happiness: "For a long time after I escaped, I was imagining what it would be like when their family knew that I had escaped!" I guess I'm going to be angry, right? There will be no punching bags again! ”

Hearing this, Yan Xiaoyan couldn't help but speak: "What happened later? How did you meet them? ”

Lin Yongmei pulled her mind from her memories and turned her head to look at her: "I escaped in a hurry, I only had a few pennies on me, and I spent all my efforts in less than a few days." Later, when I was stealing something from the alley, I happened to be caught red-handed by a man. Maybe he took pity on me, or maybe he wanted to teach me a lesson, and by the way, he gave me a way out, and took me up the mountain. ”

As she spoke, she raised her eyes: "You must already know about that mountain villa in Nanling, right?" Seeing Yan Xiaoyun nodding, she continued: "I was trained there with some teenagers and girls who were about the same age as me. When I was seventeen, I was sent down the mountain. The rest, you see, too. I have been staying by Li Chongming's side, and from time to time I have collected some useful things for them according to the above regulations. ”

When Rong Xiu heard this, his eyes couldn't help but flash, and he interjected, "What is something that is useful to them?" ”

Lin Yongmei blinked: "For example, the important things that happened in Yongji Town and the surrounding areas, the flow of people in the yamen of Yongji Town, and the expenses of the treasury, Li Chongming wants to present them to the higher-level public. text and so on. To put it simply, it is all about the big and small things that cover Yongji Town. ”

Hearing this, Yan Xiaowei and Rong Xiu couldn't help but look at each other.

As early as before, Song Honghua also explained to Rong Xiu and the others in this way. Now that Lin Yongmei has roughly said what she has done around Li Chongming on weekdays, Rong Xiu and Yan Xiaowei can basically conclude that this person behind the scenes wants to use these young people and girls who have been specially trained in the villa to lurk in various important positions in the Baili Dynasty, cast an invisible net, and collect information about the entire Baili Dynasty, so as to grasp the movements of the key points of the Baili Dynasty.

If this matter had been started more than ten years ago, then the people behind it would have obviously been ambitious, and the power was extremely huge and unfathomable.

The person behind all this has almost all the lifeblood information of the Baili Dynasty, if he wants to subvert this dynasty, it will definitely be easy!

Rong Xiu and Yan Xiaoyi's brows were tightly wrinkled, because the two of them knew that they had to find out the person behind the scenes as soon as possible, and there was no time to delay!

Lin Yongmei glanced at the expressions of Yan Xiaoyi and Rong Xiu, and then said: "I will send out the things they want through letters or other means, and they will use the same way to give back some reward money after they take over." I have always corresponded with the 'Lord' through letters, and I have not seen who this 'Lord' is. It wasn't until some time ago that the 'Lord' suddenly contacted me and said that she was coming to Yongji Town to avoid the limelight and asked me to find a hidden house for them. ”

"But", Lin Yongmei frowned: "I don't think Allure is the real 'Lord'." ”

This point coincides with what Rong Xiu and Yan Xiaowei are thinking. However, Yan Xiaowei couldn't help but ask, "Why do you say that?" ”

Lin Yongmei glanced at her funny, as if she knew that she was asking. However, she didn't say anything, but replied in a kind manner: "Don't say anything else, it's been more than ten years since the establishment of the mountain villa where I was trained since I was a child, how big is that Allure?" Could it be that she has the ability to cast such a big net when she is a yellow-haired girl? And, from the letters I have exchanged with the above, I can see that the real 'Lord' is eight times out of ten. Nine is a man. Because, the letter once asked me to collect a long-lost martial arts booklet on the rivers and lakes. And that booklet, only men can practice! ”

Rong Xiu's brows twisted, and his deep gaze fell on Lin Yongmei's body: "Other than that, do you have any other clues?" ”

Lin Yongmei shook her head: "No, I'm just a small piece of fragment under this net." There are really only a few things you know, and if you want to know exactly something, it's best to start with Allure. She must know a lot more than I do! ”

Yan Xiaoyi skimmed Rong Xiu's tense face, and sighed in her heart, originally she and Rong Xiu were still counting on starting from this Lin Yongmei and coming up with something useful! However, who would have thought that this Lin Yongmei didn't know much.

But, in any case, her rhetoric is basically in line with what the two of them have in their hands.

However, how do you start with Allure?

Just thinking about it, Yan Xiaowei felt a little big.

Suddenly, a flash flashed in her mind, and she took out the poplar box she had found in Allure from her cuffs, and stretched out her hand and shook it in front of Lin Yongmei: "Have you ever seen this thing?" ”

Lin Yongmei took the poplar box, put it in her hand and looked at it, and shook her head for a while: "I'm sorry, I haven't seen it." ”

Yan Xiaowei took the box that Lin Yongmei handed back with some disappointment, and couldn't help frowning, isn't there any other more useful news?

She was a little depressed, and suddenly, Lin Yongmei on the other side wrinkled her eyebrows: "I suddenly remembered that when I met Allure before, I saw the handkerchief she was wearing. The handkerchief is embroidered with the word 'tilt' and the word 'heart', which looks like it should be a handkerchief for acacia. I just don't know if the word 'heart' is the name of her sweetheart. ”

As soon as the words fell, Yan Xiaoyi's sharp eyes saw Rong Xiu's face change.

Yan Xiaoyan couldn't help but pull Larong Xiu's hand: "Hey, what's wrong with you?" ”

Rong Xiu shook his head, instantly reined in the situation just now, and opened his mouth to Lin Yongmei and continued to ask, "Is there anything else?" ”

Lin Yongmei twisted her eyebrows and thought carefully for a while, then shook her head: "No." ”

Rong Xiu nodded: "Thank you for today's incident." What Xiao Cumin and I promised you, we will never break our promises. ”

As he spoke, he looked back at Yan Xiaoyi. Yan Xiaoyan received his eyes and nodded hurriedly: "Yes, I promised you to treat Gongzi Ling before, and I will start here." ”

As he spoke, Rong Xiu pushed open the door of the firewood room and prepared to take the two people out.

Who knows, Li Chongming and his entourage, who were waiting outside, did not retreat.

When Li Chongming saw a few people coming out, he couldn't help but take a big step forward, with some eager flattery on his face: "Little general, I don't know when and where my second aunt offended you and Mrs. Ling. But I dare to use the black gauze hat on my head to guarantee that although my second aunt has a bit of a poisonous mouth, her heart is good. If there is any offense, please forgive the little general and his wife! ”

Seeing that Rong Xiu and Yan Xiaowei didn't speak, and Lin Yongmei also had a wooden face, Li Chongming was a little anxious, and knelt on the ground with a "poof": "Although the lowly post has a wife and a concubine, but the lady is vicious, the lowly post has decided to punish her for being with the green lantern every day, and she has thought about it for the rest of her life." Now, in my huge Li Mansion, there is only such a person left who knows cold and hot. The little general should just pity me, and forgive her for doing so! If you're not angry, I can take off this black gauze hat on my head and atone for her sins! ”

originally thought that this Li Chongming was groveling and a flattering villain, but he didn't expect that he was willing to speak for his aunt's wife, and even sacrificed his hard-won official position, Yan Xiaowei couldn't help but reassess this person.

However, compared with Yan Xiaomei, Lin Yongmei was the one who was most shocked. She looked at Li Chongming who was kneeling on the ground, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

In fact, she has no home since she was a child, she just wants to find a place to eat hot food, and it is enough to bully her if there is no more. Therefore, when the man took her to the mountain villa for training, and then sent her to this Yongji Town and to this Li Chongming, she didn't think much about it.

It's just that this place is used as a safe place to be protected from bullying.

How much Li Chongming values this official position, she couldn't be clearer. She couldn't understand how much he was afraid of running out of money.

However, when she saw Li Chongming sacrifice all this for herself, her heart seemed to have suddenly warmed up after a long frost.

Is this the taste of love?

Although she thought so in her heart, she made a look that was not annoying on the surface: "What are you doing, get up!" With so many people watching, you're not ashamed! ”

Li Chongming shook his head: "No, I won't get up." Yongmei, you don't know, I've been a father who doesn't love my mother since I was a child, and since I met you, I know what warmth is. I know you're a poor guy too, so I want to be nice to you! ”

Yan Xiaowei looked at this pair and couldn't help but sigh deeply in her heart.

No matter what this Lin Yongmei has done, she will always be the best for her husband and son.

Such feelings are really enviable.

Rong Xiu looked at Lin Yongmei deeply, then bent down and helped Li Chongming, who was kneeling on the ground, and said with a smile: "Lord Li, what do you think you are doing here?" It's just a misunderstanding! ”

When Li Chongming heard this, he couldn't help but look at the people in front of him suspiciously.

Yan Xiaowei also smiled and said: "That's the case, I heard a little maid say that the little young master in the house is in poor health." I have learned a little bit of medical skills since I was a child, and I wonder if I can relieve the worries of the little master. Who knows, the second aunt didn't know my identity, and thought I was a bad guy who sneaked into the house, so there was a dispute for a while. However, things have now been explained. ”

As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and pulled Lin Yongmei on the side, and smiled at her: "Isn't it, second aunt?" ”

Lin Yongmei lowered her head and lightly touched it for a while: "Yes." ”

Li Chongming listened, then he became happy, he stood up from the ground with Rong Xiu's strength, and patted his chest as if afraid: "What, my second aunt is too quick-tempered, I'm afraid that she will accidentally offend the two, so I'm in a hurry!" ”

Rong Xiu stretched out his hand and patted Li Chongming's shoulder: "Now you can rest assured." ”

Li Chongming listened and waved his hand to the family members gathered around: "Disperse, disperse!" Which Wang Balamb said that the second aunt was in too much trouble, and scared Lao Tzu! When Lao Tzu finds out, he must have opened your skin! ”

When the people heard this, they scattered with a bang.

Rong Xiu gave Yan Xiaoyun a look, and then pulled Li Chongming away.

For a while, only Yan Xiaowei and Lin Yongmei remained.

Yan Xiaoyan saw that she was staring at the ground with complicated eyes, and she didn't know what she was thinking, so she couldn't help beckoning to her: "Didn't you say that you were treating the little young master?" Right now, right? ”

Lin Yongmei listened, looked at her quietly, and then nodded.

The two re-entered the small courtyard under the shade of the bamboo forest, and the little maid before saw the two coming back side by side, and her eyes kept wandering over Yan Xiaoyi.

Yan Xiaowei had already gone to this Li Mansion in advance to take some medicine, prepared it into hemp boiling powder, wrapped it into a packet and handed it to the little maid, and instructed her to fry it over low heat.

The little maid didn't take the medicine, and looked at Lin Yongmei inquiringly. Her big eyes were somehow, as if with a hint of hostility, and Yan Xiaoyu felt uncomfortable for a while.

Lin Yongmei, who was on the side, received the little maid's inquiring gaze, but ignored her and walked straight into the room with Yan Xiaoyi.

At this time, on the huge bed, the little boy opened a pair of big black eyes that did not shine, and he did not know what he was thinking.

Seeing this, Lin Yongmei walked to the side of the bed in three steps and two steps, helped the little boy up from the bed, and held him in her arms: "What's wrong?" But it's uncomfortable again? ”

The little boy blinked, and said for a while: "Mother, I don't know why, I always feel that my head is heavy." Sometimes even I don't know when I started to close my eyes, and when I woke up, it was a long time. Just now, I kept trying to keep my eyes open, for fear that when I closed it like this, I would never wake up again. ”

There was a thick milk voice in his words, but the expression on his face was like a distressed little adult, and it was inexplicably heartbroken in people's eyes.

Lin Yongmei lovingly put her chin on the little boy's forehead, and gently scolded: "What nonsense!" What wakes up, can't wake up! Now that this sister brought back by my mother knows how to heal, you will get better soon! ”
