061 The county lord is straightforward
"However, since we have already met, with the sincerity of the county lord, it will naturally make us like it quickly, you say, county lord, yes or no?"
When Lin Huijia said this, it made the county lord of Linglong speechless. If she said that Lin Huijia and others didn't like her, wouldn't it mean that she herself was despicable? The county lord of Linglong couldn't find a rebuttal for a while, so he could only snort unhappily.
And Zhao Shiyan stood with Linglong, facing Lin Huijia. And Lin Huijia's bright smile, the intelligence and confidence exuded in an instant, were so beautiful and indescribable, that he lost his mind for a moment. It seems good to have such a woman as his wife?
Linglong was in front of her, and it was completely a child messing around.
For the first time, Zhao Shiyan didn't care a little less about his marriage, and looked forward to it a little more.
He came back to his senses in an instant, patted the shoulder of the county lord of Linglong, and scolded: "Okay, Linglong! Don't mess around anymore and apologize like Miss Lin! β
Lin Yijia found that after listening to Zhao Shiyan's words, a trace of disbelief flashed on the face of the county lord of Linglong, a trace of anger and a trace of grievance, and a tear in his eyes was almost about to fall. But these gods on her face quickly disappeared, and she saw Linglong coming over, grabbed Lin Huijia's arm, and said coquettishly: "Sister Hui, it's Linglong, it's not right, Linglong ......"
The eyes of the county lord are very good-looking, big and divine, and they are watery at the moment. Moreover, she herself is also very good-looking, only twelve or thirteen years old, and she already has the beauty of half-blooming flowers. Such a good-looking little girl, and such a pair of eyes looking at you. It seems to make you feel that any rejection of her to upset her is a sin.
Lin Huijia smiled, grabbed the good of the Linglong County Lord, glanced at Zhao Shiyan reproachfully, and said, "Why is Brother Zhao too strict?" The county lord said so bluntly, so he didn't see our sister and brother too much......" After a pause, she said again: "Brother Zhao, my brother mentioned that there are many calligraphy and painting treasures in the house. Very yearning, I wonder if he has the honor to increase his knowledge? Our daughter's family is together, so we can let go of the garden. β
Lin Jiakang was stunned when he heard this.
When did he mention this to his sister?
However, of course, he wanted to see the collection of the county king's mansion...... So, he immediately took a step. Salute to Zhao Shiyan and ask questions.
Zhao Shiyan naturally had nothing to do, and after instructing the county lord of Linglong, he took Lin Jiakang to the front. It's just that he also has doubts in his heart: his fiancΓ©e doesn't seem to have the intention of taking the opportunity to get along with him more? Not at all like other women? Obviously, she took the initiative to meet yesterday?
Zhao Shiyan thought back to yesterday's performance, although there was an accident in front of the Yuelou, he was confident that there was nothing wrong with his behavior...... Or. She saw that Linglong had a good relationship with herself, so Linglong was a little willful. I want to please my sister-in-law first?
That can be said to be in the past...... As far as he knew, this Shengjing noblewoman had many people who had deliberately approached Linglong in the past in the hope that Linglong would be able to talk to them in front of him, and Linglong's precious and unprecious gifts were not less. It was only after the news of his marriage came out in the past two years that it stopped somewhat, but it has not completely disappeared.
Zhao Shiyan found an excuse for Lin Huijia to convince himself. But there was a little bit of discomfort in my heart. The discomfort didn't affect him much, though. It was quickly forgotten.
The back garden of the Rongjun Royal Mansion does not have a specific name, and there is no part of the garden. However, it is still a beautiful landscape, and the buildings are located in it, which has become the embellishment of the whole garden.
Out of the Rongxiang Hall, a short walk back, is a small pavilion with a view, located on a small shallow pond on one side. The water is shallow and full of rocks of various sizes, but all round and angular. Many of the larger stones are hollow, and countless fish swim in them, colorful and different, very smart and beautiful.
The county lord of Linglong accompanied the three young ladies of the Lin family, stepped on the exquisite white jade bridge, and walked into the small pavilion. In the small pavilion, the slaves and maids have already been furnished, and all the tea, water, melons and fruits have been put on the table.
Without waiting for them to sit down, the county lord of Linglong said with some urgency: "Sister Hui, can you show Linglong this peony pendant of yours?" My grandmother used to hide it tightly and never took it out. β
Never take it out, don't you know it?
Lin Huijia didn't care, so she took off the newly acquired blood jade pendant and handed it to Linglong.
Linglong couldn't put it down, and couldn't stop praising the beauty.
But no matter how much she praises it, such a jade pendant with special meaning with the expectations of her elders cannot be given to her. Lin Huijia chuckled, thanked the princess of Laojun for her generous gift, and turned to talk about some good jade that she had seen elsewhere. But unfortunately, Lin Huijia soon found out that this Linglong county lord was not a person who loved jade, and she was not interested in what she said, but just perfunctorily said "En" a few times, and the person kept lowering his head and repeatedly rubbing the peony lines in his hand, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
At this time, Lin Minjia was attracted by the fish in the pond and pulled Lin Yijia to watch it together. Those fish are not the koi fish that the rich and noble often see, but the species. After they identified it, Lin Minjia couldn't help but exclaim, "This is a sea fish, right?" Look, I recognize that flatfish with orange stripes! That's the Red Clown! β
At this time, Lin Yijia also found these fish.
Although most of the fish are not named, there are all kinds of blue and green colors here, and their appearance is also strange, so it must be a good fish in the sea.
Rongjun Wangfu does not show mountains and water on weekdays, and this pool of sea fish is a big deal! Shengjing is far away from the sea, and the absolute value of these surviving marine fish is as good as gold, not to mention that this pool of water alone is transported from the sea, and it is necessary to keep the pool water fresh, and how much does it cost!
When the county lord Linglong heard this exclamation, he walked over and said with a smile: "Sister Min is really worthy of being from Guangzhou Mansion, and her knowledge is not ordinary!" Red clown, black clown, that's a ghostface, that's a blue face......"
Linglong pointed to the fish in the pond and proudly introduced them one by one. These fish caught from the sea in the south are bright in color, beautiful in shape, and relatively large in size, and very colorful. Compared to them, koi fish are much more monotonous.
Lin Huijia also stood over, smiling and listening to the introduction of the Linglong County Lord, occasionally echoing in her mouth, but her eyes never left the Linglong County Lord's hand - I don't know if it was intentional or unintentional to forget it for a while, the Linglong County Lord held the jade pendant in the palm of his right hand, and used his right hand to point on the pool.
Suddenly, Lin Huijia's eyes moved, and her arm subconsciously moved, but stopped again.
Seeing that the county lord of Linglong let go of his palm, the blood-like jade pendant fell into the pool in an instant, and the "bang" scattered the fish in all directions! Then, it floats in the water and slowly sinks to the bottom of the pool. The clear water of the pond is only a foot deep, and the jade pendant is even more gorgeous and graceful when it is opened in the water.
"Oops!" The county lord of Linglong looked remorseful: "Quick, come on, my jade pendant has fallen!" Hurry up and get it up! β
"Yes! Princess! β
When a maid waiting outside the pavilion heard this, she immediately took off her shoes and socks, rolled up her hakama skirt, exposed half of her calf, and walked down the pool. The pool water should not be cold. Seeing that the maid's face did not change, she quickly walked to the middle of the pool, fished out the jade pendant, and carefully carried it back to the shore.
Linglong's personal maid named Xiangpian took the jade pendant, wiped it clean, and gave it to Linglong.
Linglong gave it to Lin Huijia apologetically, and said with some fear: "Fortunately, it fell into the water, and the water in this pool is not deep...... Otherwise, Linglong really doesn't know what to do......"
Lin Huijia's fingers secretly touched the jade pendant, and after making sure that there was no problem with it, she took the jade pendant over and put it on again. In fact, when Linglong let go of the jade pendant, she was able to catch it. However, there are really many strange things about the county lord's performance today, and the jade pendant will not be broken if it falls into the water, so she didn't stop it, she just wanted to see what the county lord wanted to do.
"Isn't that all right? The county lord should stop blaming himself...... However, even if it is really broken, who can blame you for not doing it? You also have no intention. β
Lin Huijia could obviously see that Linglong had just deliberately thrown the jade pendant into the pool. She was already prepared for all kinds of possibilities in her heart, but the jade pendant that came back at this time was clearly the original one, neither the surface was intact and the inside was damaged, nor was it quietly dropped. So, what exactly does this county lord want?
The current situation really makes Lin Huijia a little confused. I can't figure it out for the time being, and she can only keep the doubts in her heart, and she can only be more vigilant.
But then, the county lord of Linglong did not make any strange moves. Like a truly well-bred and favored noblewoman, she dutifully did her job as the master and played and chatted with the girls of the Lin family. And what about Lin Huijia? It wasn't until she successfully walked out of the gate of the Rongjun Mansion with her family that her heart was slightly relieved, and a little doubt and incredulity flashed in her heart.
Did you read it wrong?
Lin Huijia took off the jade pendant, watched it repeatedly, bowed her head and said nothing
"What's wrong?" Mrs. Lin asked.
Lin Huijia handed the blood jade to Mrs. Lin, frowned and said, "Mother, you can see, there is nothing wrong with this jade pendant, right?" My daughter always felt a little strange......"
When Mrs. Lin heard this, she solemnly took the jade pendant and looked at it repeatedly for a while, but she didn't see any problems. But instead of relaxing, she sat up straight and asked, "What happened?" Tell me about it. (To be continued.)
