These two people are often seen by Lin Zhicai in Lin Yu'an's house, although Zhou Zhiruo has just married, she also knows that these two people are the heads and faces of her sister.

At this time, the two of them knelt in the courtyard under the pouring rain, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that the two must have made some mistake and were punished for kneeling

Lin Zhicai thought of what Luo Gui said about Sister Shu'er falling off the swing, and when he entered the eaves, he couldn't help but glance back at the two of them.

Zhou Zhiruo saw that he only cared about giving her an umbrella, and he didn't know that he was wet, so he wiped the water on his back in disgust.

"It's such a big person, why can't you use an umbrella."

"It's okay, it doesn't matter, let's go see Sister Shu first."

Zhou Zhiruo didn't say much, nodded and followed her husband to the side hall.

Lin Yu'an sat next to the pink gauze tent, the maid went in and out to fetch water for water, in the cold winter wax moon, the water from the well was cold to the bone, and Sister Shu'er had two blood marks on her face, she had just applied the medicine, and she had fallen asleep after drinking the soothing soup.

She didn't want to fake others, her hands were already red from the cold, the stove in the house was extinguished, and the cold soaked her whole body under her feet.

Lin Zhicai looked at his sister's appearance and felt sour, walked over and grabbed Lin Yu'an, and took the handkerchief himself, "Sister, you go and take a rest, there are me and Zhiruo here." ”

Lin Yu'an saw her younger brother, her eyes were red, Zhou Zhiruo came over and grabbed her shoulder, and comforted her gently: "Sister, don't worry about such a cold day, Zhicai and I are guarding here, you go and drink some hot soup to warm up your body first." ”

Listening to the words of his younger brother and sister-in-law, Lin Yu'an seemed to have drunk a bowl of hot chicken soup in nine days, and his heart warmed up.

She didn't say anything, and let Zhou Zhiruo send her to the warm pavilion, and she didn't come back to her senses until her cold hand regained warmth.

She is really tired, Brother Jiu'er's illness has not yet recovered, and Sister Shu'er has become like this here again, it is really a disaster, and the house leak happened to rain overnight.

She thought about Brother Jiu'er, so she hurriedly got up to see Brother Jiu'er, Brother Jiu'er drank the medicine, the fever had subsided, but her little face was still red, which was really distressing.

She lowered her head and kissed her son's little face, and lay silently on the low couch beside her, thinking about it.

If it weren't for Sister Shu'er's business, Lin Yu'an might really think that today's events were all coincidences and accidents, but that swing had already reminded her that this incident was no accident.

Qi's!

Lin Yu's anger suddenly burned, who else would attack her child besides her, the war between her and the Qi clan had begun, and there was no need to verify some things, everyone knew it.

It's just that Qi's was wrong this time, she shouldn't have done it to the children, the children are still young, how innocent they are, which is why she has not moved Brother Heng.

Brother Heng is now eight or nine years old, five or six years older than Brother Sheng'er and Sister Shu'er, and she still has pity and doesn't hurt him, but the Qi family is so unrelated that she actually gives Sister Shu such a heavy hand.

If today's luck is a little worse, Sister Shu'er's injury is a little more serious, and Lang Zhong comes a little later, the matter will really be irreparable, even now, the injuries on Sister Shu'er's face and body are also shocking, not to mention the broken hands and legs, such a result is already unbearable for a little girl.

How will Sister Shu marry in the future, when other little girls can wear beautiful dresses to have fun in the garden, she can't!

As soon as he thought of this, Lin Yu'an felt a bone-crushing pain.

She couldn't take it anymore!

Yes, this matter is indeed not much different from what she thought, and Qi was in a brisk mood at this time rewarding the errand officer.

Mother Gui was very worried, the last time she burned Nanyuan, the second day the county lord's mansion was burned, this time the Qi family moved the life of Princess Jingnan, I am afraid that things will not be good.

Qi doesn't think so, at this time, Lin Yu'an has absolutely no time to go against her, what she should be worried about is her children, sick and disabled, what will happen in the future, it also depends on her mood!

Such a happy mood did not last long, and when the news of the impeachment of Hengwangfu came, she sighed in her heart, and finally realized something.

The sound of firecrackers in the New Year came as promised, and fireworks were set off in full swing, filling the sky with brilliant lights.

Entering the city with joy, this is the first year of Yonghui, the first year of the new emperor's accession to the throne, the world amnesty, a bumper harvest of grains, harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes are greatly reduced, the people are happy, happy.

But in the first-class circles in the capital, the atmosphere of the Wang family, the Jingnan Palace, and the Rongguo Mansion is very strange.

Let's talk about the Wang family first, because the county lord's mansion can't live for a while, the county lord of Anning and Wang Zhongguo had to move back temporarily and live in the courtyard of Wang Zhongguo before.

It doesn't matter if you live here, what matters is that the Qi family is here, and now the housekeeper is Wang Zhongde's concubine Ruan Qianjiao, Ruan Qianjiao is the concubine of the Ruan family, and Ruan Lingyin also has some origins, just forget it at the beginning, but the Qi family is used to giving orders in the county lord's mansion, and the people of the Wang family are a little confused, and they don't know who to listen to.

Ruan Qianjiao has some means, in the Wang family, it is the master who says the same, where can she stand this anger, she finally got to this position, she can really take charge of the Wang family, and now there is a county lord who is bigger than herself and has a better status.

When she thought about it, she felt like she was gritting her teeth, and the back sockets were about to be chewed up.

During the Chinese New Year, in order to please the Qi family, she specially asked the Qi family where to set up a banquet, and the Qi family said to follow her, Ruan Qianjiao proposed to hold a banquet in the Yongjia Courtyard where the Qi family lived, and the Qi family agreed indifferently.

She thought that the Qi family was just perfunctory, who knew that in just a few days, the Qi family would personally inquire about the affairs of the New Year, and even the Rongxi Residence where she lived was also questioned by her, and she also had to interrogate the daily refreshments and fruits, and the use of clothes.

This made Ruan Qianjiao feel like a dove occupying the magpie's nest, and she felt very uncomfortable, so she simply called herself sick, and deliberately did not go to Yongjia Courtyard to ask for peace, and only asked about Yongjia Courtyard, thinking that the Qi family was afraid that she would not be able to hold on soon, but she didn't want the Qi family to be more and more energetic.

It wasn't until her husband asked her that if she was really uncomfortable, she would hand over the cards to Qi's that she realized that she was thinking about it and broke out in a cold sweat.

Qi's strength made Ruan Qianjiao very uncomfortable, but her husband's pressure made her have to face the reality, if she kept pretending to be sick, the power of the family would be lost to her again.

She simply used her husband's words to mention it in Qi's face: "The official said that there are many affairs in the family, and you can't let the sister-in-law be tired, if the sister-in-law is not satisfied with anything, just bring it up." ”

Qi pretended to be deaf and dumb and ignored it, but he was very disdainful of Ruan Qianjiao's style, and stabbed coldly: "Sister-in-law? I remember that you are just the second brother's concubine, a concubine buyer, and a cheap trade, don't you know, what do you call me? ”

Ruan Qian was squeamish, so when he went back, he blew the pillow wind on Wang Zhongde and encouraged him to let Wang Zhongguo go out to live alone, but it was useless.

Mother Gui knocked on the side and tried the Qi family, which means that if it goes on like this, I am afraid that it will sin the Ruan family.

Qi Shi disagreed, and replied lukewarmly: "What capital does she have to shout with me, in front of me, what is she?" ”

Gui's mother has not mentioned it since then.

In the Rongguo Mansion, Ruan Lingyin's mind was not smooth, but it was because of Yu Hao.

She gave Yu Hao three beautiful but submissive concubines, Aunt Hui gave birth to the eldest son in Layue, Yu Hao's first son, she was very happy, and she didn't inform her, so she went to tell Rong Guogong and raised the concubine.

Although the concubine is also a concubine, such a move undoubtedly increases the arrogance of Aunt Hui, she gave birth to the eldest son, and the tide rises to the status of the concubine, compared with before, she acts a little more of her own opinions.

Ruan Lingyin saw it in her eyes, and her heart was already quenched with poison, and she couldn't wait to kill Aunt Hui.

She can't give birth to a son, so Aunt Hui will be allowed to get pregnant, but she doesn't know that her previous obedience is pretended, and she is such a villain who is arrogant.

She implemented the way of others and treated others, and the next day she went to Rong Guogong to get permission and took Aunt Hui's son to her house to raise.

Because of this, Aunt Hui cried several times in front of Yu Hao, and heard that there was a problem with her eyes.

Ruan Lingyin was happy in her heart, Yu Hao wanted to come to her house to see the child, although she had no hope of giving birth to her eldest son, but if she could have a child of her own, she would definitely catch it.

But Yu Hao still avoids her, and leaves after coming to see the child every day, except for the fifteenth day of the new year, he will never spend the night in her house, but the so-called overnight stay is just living in separate beds.

Ruan Lingyin simply spent all her thoughts on the things in the backyard, for example, Aunt Hui regretted it, she was still in confinement, originally Yu Hao would come over to see her in three or two days, but then she couldn't see anyone for half a month, she was puzzled, and asked the maid to inquire about Yu Hao's whereabouts, only then did she know that Ruan Lingyin had raised a little girl for Yu Hao again.

That little lady is twenty-eight years old, more beautiful than her, a girl like a flower, and soon hooked Yu Hao's heart.

This matter, she understands it, the lady in the main room is the lady in the main room, she has a hundred ways to suppress herself, she is not self-sufficient, so she will think of using her son as a bargaining chip to confront her.

The son is gone, the favor is gone, and her dignity and dignity are like clouds after the rain, so thin that they will be blown away by the wind.

As for the Jingnan Palace, the gloomy atmosphere has also reached the bottom.

Although Sister Shu'er is not in danger of her life, she is not as lively as before, lying in bed in a trance, Lin Yu'an looked at her daughter's appearance, and secretly couldn't wipe her tears.

In the evening, Xu's mother came over and said that Hongying had fainted, Chen was kneeling and crying, Lin Yu'an listened to it, and couldn't help but feel cold in her heart, "I didn't tell them to kneel, tell them that if they want to kneel all the time, go out of the house." ”

Mother Xu shook her body, nodded and went out.

She was worried, she didn't want to care about them anymore, she didn't hold anyone accountable for this matter, and since someone had made up her mind to calculate Sister Shu'er's child, it would be a matter of time, she just blamed herself for not protecting Sister Shu'er.

It's really a coincidence today, she was anxious when Brother Jiu'er was sick, and she didn't ask Sister Shu where she went, but she didn't expect that it was a coincidence that she went to play on the swing.

How could she not know that Sister Shu likes to play on swings, this matter is not right inside and out, no matter how capable the Qi family is, I am afraid that there is no way to calculate when Sister Shu will play on the swing, and the Chen family is not a careless person, otherwise she would not have let her be by Sister Shu'er Sheng'er's side all the time.

On the second day, Lin Yu'an called Chen over and asked a few words carefully.

"Whose idea was it to go on the swing yesterday? Don't hide it from me, I won't blame you. ”

Yesterday, she knelt for several hours, and her knees hurt so much that she couldn't sleep at night, Chen's face was pale, and when she heard Lin Yuan's words, tears were about to come out.

"Yesterday, yesterday it was Xiao Chen's who came over and said that the princess was looking at Brother Jiu'er, the little county lord could go and play on the swing for a while, saying that if you were there, you would definitely not agree, Sister Shu was in the middle again, and the slave took her over, I looked at the swing carefully, and I didn't find anything wrong, Hongying came to argue with me, and in a short time, the little county lord fell down......"

Her voice grew lower and lower, until at last all that was left was a low sob.

Xiao Chen? Lin Yu'an didn't say a word, and directly asked people to arrest Xiao Chen, but Xiao Chen was not in the house, and Xu's mother immediately asked people to block the palace and not allow anyone to enter or leave.

The carpet search was only half a pillar of incense, and someone found Xiao Chen, who was hiding in the stable, and when she was brought back, she had horse material hanging on her body, straw in her hair, and the burden she was carrying was dirty, and she looked embarrassed.

When Xiao Chen saw Chen on the side, tears and snot came out together, knelt down and crawled towards Chen, crying and shouting: "Sister, sister, just save me, I don't know anything, I don't know anything, this matter has nothing to do with me, I have absolutely no other thoughts!" ”

Xiao Chen, a person who looks honest and submissive on weekdays, no one would have thought that there would be such a side, and Lin Yu's head was a little greasy.

She asked Xiao Chen in a deep voice: "You can speak again after you think clearly, I don't want to do anything to you, but if you don't know it, I will let Yueqiu interrogate you, and then ......."

Lin Yu'an didn't finish her words, but Xiao Chen trembled, her lips were a little white, she was stunned for a moment, and fell to her knees.

"It's Yang Hu, he said that as long as the little county lord went to sit on the swing, he would take me away, and he said that he would pick me up before dark tonight, he said it!"

She said to herself with an unwilling face.

Lin Yu'an's face was pale, this was the nurse she found for Brother Jiu'er, how could she rest assured that she would stay with Brother Jiu'er every day.

She was silent for a long time, and a few words came out of her mouth: "Eat things inside and outside!" ”

The room was silent, Chen lowered her head, her heart trembled, she had been here for so long, and she had never seen Princess Jingnan scold people like this.

She almost thought that Princess Jingnan was really a soft person, but she never thought that she would be so angry and scolding.

But what she was more afraid of was her own result, Xiao Chen was recommended by her, she did such a thing, how could she be spared.
