Chapter 107: Bear Child
The corners of Du's mouth raised slightly, and he said skillfully, "Master, this person came to the door and said that Cong Cong pushed the wife of the Li family, and she was born prematurely, and she had two lives at any time, this kind of heinous matter of life must be well confirmed, if it wasn't for Cong Cong, it would be Lei Biao and Lin Xia slandering our family Cong Cong, if so, you have to think about Zu'er." ”
Lin Xia was full of surprise, it had only been a month since the last time they met on the street, why did this Du Shi seem to be a different person, and his mouth had become so neat? What did this Dushi go through, and how did he suddenly grow so fast?
When Lin Congcong was brought out by the maid, Su Xiao panicked, so he followed, and after saluting the old man Lin and Du Shi who were sitting in the upper seat, when he looked at the two people sitting on the side, his eyes were a little dull, and then he said badly, how could he forget these two people, so he had to pretend to be calm on his face, "This, little brother-in-law and little sister?" Why did you two come to the capital too? ”
Lin Xia's thin lips were shallow, and he called in a gentle tone: "Su Shi, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
"Hehe, it's been a long time, it's almost three years." Su Xiaoxiao's smile stiffened, she had eaten deflated in the hands of these two people before, and now Lin Xia must have come to the door for Cuiyu, she was a little overwhelmed.
Looking at Du Shi again, there was a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and Su Xiao was careful that the alarm bell rang loudly, presumably this Du Shi must be going to target her Cong Cong with this matter.
"Cong Cong, my mother asks you, have you gone out to play with your friends this afternoon?" Du Shi beckoned to Lin Congcong.
Seeing that it was Du's nominal mother, Lin Congcong was impatient, and hurriedly hid behind Su Xiaoxiao's dress, pretending to be timid and said, "I don't, I'm in my mother's room." ”
Old man Lin's face sank, "Who is your mother?" ”
The system of respect and inferiority in the capital is very strict, a wife is a wife, a concubine is a concubine, and the son born to a concubine cannot be called a biological mother, but must be called a wife. They can be regarded as half of their feet into the officialdom circle, this is just a trivial matter, and it is also regarded as having no family education, exceeding the rules, and if they want to pass it on to those who have a heart, it will also affect Lin Chengzu's career to a greater or lesser extent.
Lin Congcong forgot to change his words for a while, and hurriedly corrected: "I'm in my aunt's room." ”
"Do what?" Du asked.
"Literacy."
Lin Xia thought to himself that Lin Congcong was a bad teacher, and he didn't blink when he lied. With a meaningful smile on his face, he said slowly, "Are you really in the Su family's room?" ”
"Yes!" Lin Congcong replied immediately, not doubting his answer at all.
"How long?"
"Just now!"
Lin Xia nodded lightly, "Okay, then I'll find out the children in this nearby mansion, there is always a child who plays with you in the afternoon." ”
Lin Congcong's face froze, obviously forgetting about this stubble, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
Seeing this, Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly said loudly: "Little sister, are you questioning the young master for lying?" ”
Du Shi accosted, "Yes, we are smart and never lie. ”
"Please, this lie is full of loopholes, and you believe it?" Lin Xia looked disgusted, and said to the servant brought from the Li Mansion, "Go, ask the nearby mansion about the situation." ”
"Yes." The attendant gave an order, wanting to carry out Lin Xia's orders.
Old man Lin had been observing Lin Congcong's expression, and seeing that his face was stiff and nervous, it was obvious that there was a ghost, so he hurriedly stopped him, "Slow!" Lin Xia'er, do you really want to do this? ”
"What, there's a ghost in my heart?" Lin Xia said with a smile.
"Don't forget Zu'er's identity, Cong Cong is Zu'er's younger brother, if you really tear your face......" Old man Lin only said half of this, and the meaning of the other half was self-evident.
Lin Xia snorted coldly, took a sip of tea and said slowly: "If I really tear my face, you have to think about what Chengzu's career will be." ”
"......" Old man Lin's face sank, he didn't expect Lin Xia to actually grasp their weakness, their Lin family came to the capital only by relying on Lin Chengzu, Lin Chengzu could never have an accident, not to mention that this is still the capital, how many pairs of eyes are staring.
After thinking about it, Old Man Lin said, "What do you want to do?" ”
Lin Xia did not answer Old Man Lin's question positively, but said, "Your son Lin Congcong did not admit that it was Mrs. Li who he pushed. ”
Hearing his name, Lin Congcong called, "I didn't push!" ”
"Heh, it seems that your son doesn't shed tears when he doesn't see the coffin." Lin Xia said coldly.
Old man Lin's eyebrows furrowed, and he was unhappy in his heart, he only felt that this Lin Congcong was teaching Du Shi badly, "Du Shi, look at the good son you taught!" ”
Du Shi was slightly stunned, this is watching a good show, why did he talk about her, and wanted to throw the pot to her, but she Du Shi didn't take it. Hurriedly got up and saluted Old Man Lin, "Master, it's my fault that I didn't discipline Congcong." Congcong is now full of lies, and he also overthrew the wife of the Li family, his life is in danger, and he is going to pass it out, and others will say that our Lin family's family style is not strict, and there is no way to discipline children, and there is no tutor. ”
The more Du Shi said this, the darker Old Man Lin's face became, but she still didn't stop, seeing her continue: "Soon the matchmaker will go to Master Li's house to ask for marriage, Master Li's family is a scholarly family, if you know that our Lin family's family style is like this, master, do you think Master Li will marry his beloved daughter to our family?" If Master Li refuses this family business, and it is rumored that the Lin family's family style is not strict, this ancestor's character will be speculated. ”
After hearing these words, Lin Xia was simply amazed, it has only been more than a month, Du Shi's change is simply earth-shaking, I really want to ask her if she has learned from others, otherwise how could she be so powerful, and directly analyzed the big consequences of this small matter.
"Madame, what do you want to do with all this?" Su Xiaoxiao listened to this Du Shi's words, obviously exaggerating the matter, and his heart was measurable.
"What to do? Mrs. Li accidentally pushed you in Qingxi Village when she was not married, and the child was almost lost, and now Mrs. Li is married and pregnant, I'm afraid that either this Cong Cong is giving you instructions to push Mrs. Li. Du Shi said bluntly.
"I didn't!" Su Xiaoxiao denied it, and quickly knelt down in front of Old Man Lin, tears suddenly burst into tears, "Master, how could I ask the young master to push the Mrs. of the Li family, it is obvious that someone thinks that Congcong is not his own and has brought him badly." ”
Although Su Xiaoxiao didn't explicitly tell Lin Congcong about Cuiyu, since Li Yunfei and Cuiyu moved next door, she became more and more jealous. Who would have thought that a little maid would turn into a lady, and she lived in the capital and opened a dart game, and she was still pressed by a country woman, Du Shi, to be a small concubine, and this belly was also difficult to get pregnant, and she couldn't have another child, which made her not hate, not jealous.
Why should a maid be a lady, why should a vulgar woman in the countryside be a lady, and why can't she be a lady?
So Su Xiaoxiao's words may have revealed her thoughts to the child, and this Lin Congcong also listened to it, thinking that if the woman was injured, her mother would be happy. Although Su Xiaoxiao is really happy.
Old Man Lin's face was heavy, and he looked at Lei Biao and Lin Xiadao, "What do you want to do?" ”
"First of all, the medical expenses have to be compensated, and secondly, Lin Congcong wants to go to the Li Mansion to apologize to Master Li sincerely, if Master Li accepts the apology, this matter will be over." Lin Xia said bluntly.
"I don't apologize!" Lin Congcong shouted, "I didn't push that big-bellied woman." ”
"Don't admit yourself, you know it's a pregnant woman?" Lin Xia said coldly, "It seems that you just don't admit your mistakes, come here, go find out the children in the neighborhood for me, and ask them door to door, don't blame me for making a big deal out of it." ”
Seeing this, Du Shi hurriedly called, "Master, don't do it." ”
Old man Lin knew that this matter was not trivial, and looked at Lin Congcong with a cold face and said, "Congcong, you apologize to me." ”
Lin Congcong's face was incredulous, he didn't expect that his father, who loved him, would not look at him, and shouted, "I don't apologize, I just touched her!" ”
Well, I just said it myself.
Su Xiao panicked, and hurriedly covered Lin Congcong's mouth, his heart was not good, how could this kid tell the truth.
Old man Lin suddenly raised his eyebrows and glared angrily, "Sure enough, you pushed it, and you still dare to lie there?" Who teaches you badly! Do you know what to do if your push affects your brother's career? ”
Lin Congcong hurriedly broke away from Su Xiaoxiao's hand as if he had broken a jar, and shouted loudly, "I don't care, I'm not wrong, she's bad, she bullies her mother!" ”
"Presumptuous! You rebel! Old man Lin suddenly stretched out his hand and brushed it on the table, and the teapot and teacup fell to the ground.
This frightened Lin Congcong all of a sudden, and then he cried, "Woo wow, Daddy doesn't like Congcong anymore!" ”
"If you do something wrong, you dare to lie, shirk responsibility, come to someone, and the family law will serve!" Old man Lin was furious, although he loved Lin Congcong very much, but in his mind, Lin Chengzu was the most important.
Seeing that this matter was developing in an unpredictable direction, Su Xiaoxiao panicked, and hurriedly kowtowed, "Please forgive the master, Congcong is young and can't tell right from wrong, please be merciful to the master." ”
Seeing that the subordinate really took out the bamboo strip, Lin Congcong cried even more desolately, and hurriedly hid behind Su Xiaoxiao, "Mother, mother!" ”
Su Xiaoxiao protected Lin Congcong, the tears on her face even cost her makeup, and she still begged for mercy in her mouth, "Ask the master for forgiveness, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have said these words to Congcong, let him push Mrs. Li, ask the master for forgiveness!" ”
Listening to how desolate and desolate the two mothers and sons wept, Lin Xia's ears were deaf from crying, and he hurriedly said, "Hurry up, take Lin Congcong to Li Mansion to apologize after the fight!" ”
When Lin Congcong heard Lin Xia say that he wanted Old Man Lin to beat him quickly, he hurriedly ran to Lin Xia's side, waving his paws and crying, "Bad woman! Bad woman! ”
I saw Lei Biaojun's eyebrows frowning suddenly, and he directly picked up this Lin Congcong with one hand, and said seriously: "Don't beat my wife." Saying that, Lei Biao directly threw the child into Su Xiaoxiao's arms, and said coldly: "Before tomorrow, take the child to apologize and compensate for the medical expenses." ”
When the words fell, Lei Biao hugged Lin Xia's shoulders and said softly, "Let's go back." ”
