Chapter 172: Confession!
Lin Xuan returned to the mansion, quickly summoned the Gao family, and asked with a stern face: "Madam, why didn't you inform me in advance of the news that Ah Yu and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince returned to the imperial capital today?" ”
Gao's face turned slightly pale when he heard this, his eyes instantly reddened, and he said with a sad face: "Master, it's not that the concubine won't tell you." You also know that Ah Yu's child has had hysteria since he was a child, and he likes to run around, so he will get separated from the maid in the market, and this disappearance is more than half a year. Every time the concubine thinks of this, she can't sleep at night, her heart aches, and she doesn't know if the child is still alive now, and what kind of suffering he has suffered outside.
Until half a month ago, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent a letter to Jin'er, mentioning that he had found Yu'er in Qinghe Town and was taking her back to the imperial capital. When the concubine heard the news, she cried with joy, and she hated to tell the master immediately. However, thinking of the hysteria of the rumor, the concubine was afraid that something would happen halfway, so she didn't dare to tell the lord the news, and wanted to wait for the rumor to arrive in the imperial capital, and then inform the lord. ”
Speaking of this, Gao Shi picked up the handkerchief in his hand and wiped the tears that instantly welled up in his eyes, and said with extreme guilt: "The concubine is guilty, but she gave birth to a rumor but failed to take care of her, so she accidentally suffered from hysteria, shamed the Lin Mansion, made the old man more troubled, and was even more sorry for the ancestors of the Lin family." For more than ten years, the concubine knew that she was guilty and guilty, and she didn't want to let the rumors disturb the master's mood anymore until she had to, which only increased her worries. Therefore, I never said it.
The concubine originally thought that when she returned to the Lin Mansion safely, it would be safer to bring her to the lord to ask for her guilt. Na Cheng thought that she ran away again on the road, and she didn't even see anyone. In order to welcome Yu'er home, Jin'er went to the city gate early in the morning to wait, but unexpectedly, she was empty, and she was sad when she came back.
Master, this is all the fault of the concubine, the concubine is responsible, I dare not shirk it, and I ask the master to punish her. Gao said that, he slowly bent down, and he was about to kneel down to apologize.
Lin Xiang stepped forward and grabbed Gao's hand, and said slowly: "Madame doesn't have to be like this, in the final analysis, I can't blame you." ”
Gao looked up at Lin Xiang, and said with tears in his eyes: "Master, don't you really blame the concubine?" ”
Lin Xiang's eyes were cold, and he gritted his teeth and said: "If you want to blame, you can only blame that evil girl for being too ignorant of the sky and the earth!" When I returned to the imperial capital, I didn't even enter the door, and I dared to go to the household to find me, and I was even more angry! ”
Gao was stunned, "What?" Master, do you mean that the rumors are now in the city, and they went to the household to look for you? ”
Lin Xuan nodded silently, with undisguised anger on his face.
"Then master, why don't you take her back to the Lin Mansion with you?"
Lin Xuan said angrily: "Then I have to ask your good daughter, not only did she refuse to go back to the Lin Mansion with me, but she also threatened to cut off relations with the Lin family!" ”
"What? Breaking off relations with the Lin family? Gao's heart shook dramatically, "Master, don't take it to heart!" That girl is definitely hysterical again, full of nonsense, and she doesn't know what she's talking about! You can't listen to her! ”
Gao's heart was so hateful that he vomited blood, that cheap hoof really made a fuss as soon as he came back and cut off relations with the Lin Mansion, which was to ruin the reputation of the Lin Mansion and cut off all her daughters' back roads! If there is such a big scandal in the Lin Mansion, who will dare to marry her daughters in the future?
