Chapter 973: The Truth
It was almost evening, and the sky was full of red glow.
Yin Xiaoxiao led Brother Lin and Brother Ting back to the dormitory.
Brother Ting was anxious along the way, and secretly glanced up at Yin Xiaoxiao from time to time. It's a pity that only a straight back is seen. Yin Xiaoxiao never looked back, nor did she look at Brother Ting.
Finished!
The fifth aunt is really angry this time!
Brother Ting had a bitter face, quietly pulled Brother Lin'er's sleeve, and kept glancing at Brother Lin.
Later, the fifth aunt will definitely be angry and beat me, you must intercede for me!
Brother Lin rolled his eyes at Brother Ting.
Wasn't it quite powerful and domineering before? Look at this cowardly look now!
Brother Ting continued to jerk his eyes, and his eyes were almost cramping.
Yes, yes, I'm just a coward! Cousin, save me!
Brother Lin inherited the chivalrous benevolence from his mother-in-law, and he was very protective of Brother Ting, who grew up together since he was a child, only a few months older, but he had a brotherly demeanor.
Brother Lin snorted slightly, but still nodded.
Brother Ting immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and grinned at Brother Lin.
Yin Xiaoxiao suddenly stopped and looked back.
Brother Ting: "......"
Brother Lin: "......"
Brother Ting retracted his hand in embarrassment, lowered his head, and whispered, "Fifth aunt, I was wrong. ”
This Brother Thunder is really naughty and annoying, and when he doesn't smoke, people can't wait to beat him up and beat him honestly. Every time after a disaster, it is this pitiful and flattering appearance, which makes people hard-hearted.
Children who don't have a father and a mother are always a little more pitiful.
Yin Xiaoxiao's heart had softened, and her face was still extremely tight: "You two come in with me." ”
Brother Ting and Brother Lin hung their heads, honestly followed behind Yin Xiaoxiao, and entered the bedroom. All the palace maids were sent out.
Yin Xiaoxiao scolded Brother Lin as usual: "I told you before, you should keep an eye on Brother Ting today, and you can't let him quarrel with A Luo and cause trouble." Why don't you keep an eye on him? ”
Brother Ting'er's mouth is so fast, where can he watch it closely!
Brother Lin was a little aggrieved, but he didn't refute it, and admitted his mistake in a low voice: "I'm sorry, mother, I didn't keep an eye on Cousin Ting." ”
Brother Ting'er felt quite uncomfortable.
Every time she gets into trouble, the fifth aunt always reprimands Brother Lin first. It made him worse than scolding him directly. He couldn't help but interject: "Fifth aunt, I am the one who quarreled with Ah Luo. If you want to beat or scold, they all come at me. ”
Yin Xiaoxiao snorted: "You are quite righteous and responsible!" Admit your mistakes every time. Within two days, he left it behind again and continued to cause trouble. ”
"Sheng Ting! You're seven years old this year, and you're not an ignorant kid. What I said to you, why don't you remember it in your head! ”
"A Luo is the only beloved daughter of the emperor and queen, and she is the most noble princess of the Great Qi Dynasty. You are always angry with Ah Luo, how can your seventh uncle and seventh aunt be happy? ”
Brother Ting said sullenly: "Anyway, the seventh uncle and the seventh aunt didn't like me originally. ”
Yin Xiaoxiao: "......"
Yin Xiaoxiao had a headache.
How do you explain to a seven-year-old how awkward his situation is? How to let Brother Ting know that he can grow up alive and well, and the emperor is already very kind?
She has always avoided mentioning the truth about the death of Brother Ting's biological father and mother, so as not to hurt Brother Ting'er's young and fragile heart. Now it seems that Brother Ting did not appreciate her hard work.
Yin Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and made up her mind. said to Brother Lin first: "Brother Lin, I have something to say to Brother Ting alone." You go out first and wait. ”
Brother Lin'er's heart tightened, and he subconsciously stood in front of Brother Ting'er: "Mother, if you want to beat me, beat me first." ”
Yin Xiaoxiao: "......"
Yin Xiaoxiao couldn't cry or laugh at first, and then there was a strong burst of sourness and bitterness.
She was very strict with Brother Lin'er's teachings, and sometimes even seemed unkind. Brother Lin really suffered a lot of grievances, but he rarely said anything. has always loved Brother Ting.
With such a son, she, the mother-in-law, is proud enough to straighten her chest.
Yin Xiaoxiao softened her voice: "Brother Lin, don't worry, I'm not trying to beat Brother Ting." I'm going to tell him some things about the past today, so go out and wait for a while. ”
Brother Lin nodded and obediently withdrew.
Leaving Brother Ting with an ignorant face, he opened his eyes and looked at Yin Xiaoxiao blankly and helplessly: "Fifth aunt, what do you want to tell me?" Why don't you let Cousin Lin stay? ”
Yin Xiaoxiao sighed lightly, reached out and touched Brother Ting'er's head, and said slowly: "Brother Ting'er, you are not too small. There are some things that should be told to you. ”
……
Half an hour later.
The door of the dormitory reopened, and Brother Lin, who was waiting anxiously outside the door, immediately rushed into the dormitory.
Yin Xiaoxiao's eyes were complicated and her expression was dark.
Brother Ting kept wiping his red eyes with the back of his hand, but before he could wipe them off, bean-sized tears poured out.
Brother Ting is usually strong and competitive, and he never cries even when he is beaten.
When Brother Lin saw him like this, his heart was sour, and he stepped forward and whispered comfort: "Cousin Ting, don't be too sad." Your father was put to death for a felony of treason, and so was my father. ”
It's okay not to be comforted, this comfort, Brother Ting'er cried more fiercely and energetically.
He was born without a biological mother, and his impression of his father King Ning was also very thin. He only knew that King Ning was dead, but he didn't know that he was executed for the felony of treason. His mother-in-law, Li Xiangru, died of martyrdom for King Ning.
It turned out that he was the son of a criminal minister.
It turned out that his father had done so many bad things, and he and Uncle Seven were mortal enemies.
It turned out that his biological mother and Aunt Seven had long since turned against each other, and there was no sisterhood. His mother-in-law and seventh aunt are also rivals from childhood to adulthood.
No wonder the seventh uncle and seven aunts don't like him.
Perhaps, no one in this world likes him at all......
The more Brother Ting thought about it, the more uncomfortable he became, hugging Brother Lin'er's arm and crying.
Brother Lin'er also had red eyes, and stretched out his hand to hug Brother Ting: "Cousin Ting, don't cry." Both of us have no father, but fortunately I still have a mother. In the future, I will give you half of my mother. Don't cry. ”
Brother Lin was precocious and sensible, and at a very young age, Yin Xiaoxiao told the King of Min about his rebellion and death. Brother Ting's life experience was also told to him.
Therefore, for more than three years, Brother Lin has been letting Brother Ting a few points. was punished and beaten by Brother Ting, and he didn't complain and complain.
In Brother Lin's heart, Brother Ting is too pitiful. If he doesn't treat Brother Ting a little better, Brother Ting will be even more pitiful.
Brother Ting howled and cried bitterly, and hugged Brother Lin's arm tighter: "Cousin Lin, you are too good to me. He cried and shouted: "Fifth aunt, don't be angry with me, I won't dare to cause trouble in the future, I will listen to you for everything." ”
