Chapter 18: The Stepmother
The thunder sounded all night, and Shan Shulin accompanied Lu Hui all night without sleeping.
The two of them didn't fall asleep until dawn, and Lu Hui didn't wake up until the sun was up.
When she woke up, she saw Shan Shulin hugging her, and her eyebrows couldn't help but have a touch of anger.
Without any tenderness, she pushed Shan Shu away and sat up to remember what happened last night.
After her push like this, Shan Shulin woke up, opened his eyes, and before he came back to his senses, he heard Lu Hui say: "You lied to me again." ”
She stared at Shan Shulin, not letting go of any subtle expression on his face.
Shan Shulin sat up: "Are you going to cross the river and tear down the bridge?" ”
"What kind of bridge are you?" Lu Hui snorted coldly, "You are at most a donkey who unloads the grind and kills." ”
Yesterday, I am afraid that when Shan Shulin escaped with him, his people followed behind, so the signal flares that she let herself put behind, as well as the black bear, were all tests for her.
Thinking of this, Lu Hui snorted coldly: "Have you passed my test?" Single-handed? ”
Shan Shulin's face changed slightly, not because of Lu Hui's mocking words, but because of the footsteps outside.
It wasn't his people, and his people wouldn't come near at such a time to beg for abuse.
He didn't have time to sort out the description, so he only slapped himself lightly and stood up in front of Lu Hui.
The people outside didn't break in without knowing the color. He stood outside and shouted, "Young Master Shan, my lord, please go back to the house." ”
Shan Shulin's identity is a very embarrassing situation in the single family.
Because he came from the belly of a dancing girl, no one knows his ranking in the single family. No one even knows what day his birth was.
So after Shan Shu succeeded the young master of the Shan family, everyone only called him respectfully, Shan Gongzi. There is no title, no ranking, and the only sentence is 'single son'.
Lu Hui also stood up: "Since the old man is looking for you, can I ...... first?"
"The lord has invited Shan Gongzi's friends to go to the house for a reunion."
Lu Hui scolded a sentence in his heart, and he almost said it.
Sure enough, none of the old guys had a good thing.
Shan Shulin's mood seems to be better. He turned his head and looked at Lu Hui: "Let's go, Shan Shulin's friend." ”
Ghosts are your friends. Lu Hui retorted in her heart, she was clearly Shan Shulin's mortal enemy.
Lu Hui sat in the carriage for half a day before arriving at Shan Mansion.
During this little half day, she was waited in the carriage to wash and change her clothes.
Dress.
Shan Wei probably already knew her identity.
Lu Hui was arranged in an ear room. She poked through the window paper and saw Shan Shulin being led into the main room.
It seems that Shan Wei should be waiting for him in the house.
Seeing that there was no one around, and everyone was retreated cleanly, Lu Hui couldn't hold it back.
She wanted to know what Shan Wei would say to Shan Shulin.
Shan Shulin did not have a good relationship with his father. But no matter how bad it is, it is also father and son, Lu Hui has never met her own father.
Thinking of this, Lu Hui's desire to sneak away to see it became even stronger.
There was no lock on the outside, so she easily pushed it open and closed it gently.
Light-footed, Lu Hui slipped under the window of the main house.
I don't know if Shan Wei is too confident in his own strength, or if the defense outside this mansion is too tight. In short, Lu Hui didn't have a single guard all the way.
Through a crack in the window, Lu Hui saw the situation inside.
Shan Shulin knelt in the center of the room, while Shan Wei sat on a mahogany chair in front of him, carrying a heavy-looking ring ruler in his hand.
Shan Shulin was actually beaten. Lu Hui thought, this is simply the best.
I just don't know if the single piece will be too old, and the strength in the hand is not strong enough.
Standing his ears, Lu Hui listened to the words happily.
"I told you to kill her."
Shan Wei's first sentence made Lu Hui's smile condense on his face.
She knew who this 'she' of Shan Wei was referring to. Except for her Lu Hui, there is no second person.
"I can't do it." Shan Shulin replied.
"Do you know what you're doing? She is alive, and our entire single family suffers! "Shan Qi is extremely angry, and he clenched the ring ruler in his hand.
He stood up and stood in front of Shan Shu, eager to kick him.
Shan Shulin said: "What does the Shan family have to do with me? ”
This sentence called Shan Yu's first ring ruler hit Shan Shulin's neck: "Evil barrier, what are you talking about!" A single family has raised you for more than 20 years, and this is how you reciprocate? ”
"Single? Raise me? Shan Shulin sneered, "Why didn't I know that the Shan family had raised me?" ”
"You!"
"Since I was born, I haven't eaten a single bite of rice."
"My mother's rations are earned by her own weaving, and they have nothing to do with the single family."
"I was thrown into the polar region at the age of three, and I have always relied on heaven to survive, and it has nothing to do with your single family."
"I returned to Xijing when I was eight years old, was thrown into the prince's mansion, and left to fend for myself, and it has nothing to do with your single family."
"What? Now that I have use value, a single family has suddenly raised me for more than 20 years? ”
Shan Shulin stood up and snatched Shan Wei's ring ruler: "Don't forget, whose credit is it that the Shan family can now sit firmly at the head of Jiang Guo's four families!" ”
Shan Wei's face changed slightly, but he was not flustered. He suddenly turned his head and looked towards the window where Lu Hui was standing.
Lu Hui immediately felt his gaze piercing through the window paper, and just as he wanted to leave, he heard it inside: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to listen, why don't you come in in in a bright way, why hide it outside, and have no gentlemanly demeanor?" ”
Hearing this, Lu Hui knew that it was useless for him to run again.
People have found their own direction, reported their names, and if they run again, they are just covering their ears and stealing the bell.
So Lu Hui walked in generously, did not sit down, and stood beside Shan Shulin.
After thinking about it, she took two steps and stood a little farther away from Shan Lin.
Looking at her movements, Shan Wei smiled slightly, thoughtfully: "The relationship between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the dog does not seem to be as good as others say. ”
He seemed to have completely forgotten what Fang had just said about killing Lu Hui.
Lu Hui was also very cooperative, as if he hadn't heard: "It's not just bad, it's obviously very bad." ”
The smile on Shan Yu's face became more and more obvious. He turned his head to look at Shan Shulin, who was obviously a little annoyed by the fact that his muscles were jumping at night.
So he laughed: "What's a bad law?" ”
Lu Hui didn't go on.
She didn't doubt that if she followed Shan Wei's words again, Shan Shulin would drag her out backwards.
"Master Shan has ever thought that it may be more useful to keep me than to kill me." Lu Hui did not beat around the bush and directly stated his purpose.
"For example?" The interest in the fundus of the single eye seems to be very strong.
Lu Hui rolled his eyes: "For example, to be the wife of a single family." "Shan Shulin's mother.
