Chapter 295: Asking Promises
Since this incident, Lu Lu has stayed in the academy for a longer time, and when he was at home, he took care of some housework that had to be done by him, and most of the time he studied hard in the Snow Pavilion, and he always had to read until the third watch every night. worked so hard that even Lin Yuzhen was a little worried that he would not be able to support it and would lie down tired, but no matter who persuaded him, he always smiled and went his own way.
Lin Jinrong knew why, he understood that he couldn't persuade him, so he didn't persuade him, he just did what he had to do one by one, and asked Mama Gui to prepare supper soup for him, and also sent clothes, and asked about the warmth and coldness, no matter how much he had, he couldn't do it. Lu Mian also entered her room, and still ate and talked with her to discuss family affairs, but at night the well water did not interfere with the river water, and the words had already reached that point, he didn't need her to deal with it hypocritically, and she didn't want to deal with it hypocritically.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Yun officially decided to marry, and Lin Jinrong also followed closely to finalize Lychee's marriage.
At the beginning of August, Lu Shao finally finished repairing the ancestral hall and the old house, and should have gone home to arrange another errand, Lu Mian and the old lady Lu locked up in the Juxian Pavilion and talked for a long time, the old lady Lu sent Lu Shao to the Taiming Mansion to open a fragrant medicine shop, and even August 15 did not leave him at home. provoked Lu Shi to cry, but he had no choice but to be a man with his tail between his legs. Lu Jianzhong endured it even more, pretending to train Lu Shao... I want Lu Shao to work hard in Taiming Mansion and be a good man.
Lin Jinrong didn't just ask Lu Lu what she did in the middle, she just calmly analyzed, this incense medicine shop was probably what Old Lady Lu planned to give to the second room in the future. Sending Lu Shao far away should also be Lu Mian's preparation for worrying that he would go to Beijing to catch the exam, and the second room would take advantage of the gap to make waves.
She's changing, and he's changing.
On August 15, Lin Jinrong was in a very bad mood. This year's festival, as usual, as that year, the Lu Mansion family is on the Hanyue Tower in the west of the garden to enjoy the moon, drink and eat moon cakes. Naturally, there are not as many people who admire the moon as there is that year, and most of them are absent... For example, the Song family, such as Lu Shao, Lu Jing, Lu Lun, Lu Yi and a Ning Er.
Although Lin Jinrong knew that the past was irreversible, he was still in a mood. After drinking a few more glasses of Dongyang wine, I saw that Mrs. Lu was talking happily, Lin Yuzhen, Tu Shi, and Lu Yun were also touting Mrs. Lu, and Lu Shi hugged Yuan Lang and Hao Lang and whispered on the side, so he said to Lychee and quietly went downstairs alone on the stairs.
Hanyue Tower is the tallest building built by the Lu family, the base is nearly eight feet above the ground, and three more floors are built on it, and all the partition windows that can be removed are used all around. After taking the partition window, you can easily take in the scenery of the garden while sitting in the building, and it is the best place to enjoy the moon and enjoy the shade. Lin Jinrong never wanted to come here, even last year, she also said that she was sick and avoided it because that year, Ning'er died here.
At that time, it was also such a lively scene, but at that time, the whole family of the Lu family was there, far more lively than now, Yuan Lang and Haolang shouted and ran in and out Ning'er was still young, but he always wanted to play with them, so he had to shout loudly Brother Brother, but the two of them thought he was small and refused to play with him, and often always took advantage of him not paying attention, so they gave him up and ran alone, which made Ning'er cry several times. She couldn't bear it, so she led Ning'er downstairs and coaxed him to take him to catch crickets to play, in fact, where could she catch any crickets... It's just that he can't bear to be sad.
Lin Jinrong stood on the edge of the stone platform at the bottom of the Hanyue Building, looking at the shadowy stone hill below in the moonlight. This rockery is only two or three feet, and it looks very elegant on weekdays, but it has become a weapon for killing people at that time.
At that time, she led Ning'er here, Lin Yuzhen called her upstairs and asked her something, so she stood there and said a few words to Lin Yuzhen. Ning'er waited impatiently and pulled her to make trouble, so she asked the nurse Wen Niang to lead him aside and wait. But in the blink of an eye, before she could answer Lin Yuzhen's words, she heard Lin Yuzhen shouting heartbreakingly upstairs.
She turned around in a hurry, Ning'er was gone, and only Wen Niang was left standing on the edge of the stone platform in a daze, trembling lips and saying; "He ran around, but the slave didn't hold .................." She couldn't hear the next words, and she rushed down like crazy. Ning'er was already covered in bloodβhe fell from the stone platform and crashed into the stone rockery. But after two days of suffering, his small body was finally cold in her arms.
Wen Niang hanged herself, she lost her love forever, and completely broke with Lu Xuan. Even after so many years, Lin Jinrong still can't forget the unforgettable pain at that time, life is worse than death, her heart is crushed, countless days and nights, she has spent it in remorse o She has always blamed herself, if she hadn't handed over Ning'er to Wen Niang at that time, if she had kept Ning'er by her side and held her in her arms, or, when talking to Lin Yuzhen, she looked at Ning'er twice, would Ning'er not have an accident?
Lin Jinrong stroked his cheeks, which were cold by the night breeze, got off the stone platform, walked to the side of the stone rockery, and gently helped the stone. The stone was cold in her hand, but she seemed to touch that little body, as if she smelled the frankincense emanating from his body, and heard him call softly and glutinously in her ear.
At that time, this stone hill was stained with Ning'er's blood, and it was later smashed by Lu Lu with a sledgehammer, and the pedestal was completely destroyed. At this time, the stone hill still stands intact, and no one will try to smash it to pieces with a hammer tonight, and maybe, it will always stand quietly like this.
The distinction between the past life and the present life is not clear, but the boundary is so clear. Her Ning'er will never come back, and she will never go back to the way she used to be. Even if everything is repeated, the mood will never be the same again. Lin Jinrong withdrew his hand from the stone, gently wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and turned to walk away. She thought, this is probably the last time she will come here, the pillar is over, Ning'er just hides it in her heart, and she doesn't have to take out the bundle and chew on it from time to time to hurt herself.
"What's wrong with you?" Lu Lu stood not far away and looked at her quietly, he was getting thinner and thinner... The robes looked a little empty.
"Nothing. It's just that the wine is on the head, and I want to go down and walk. Lin Jinrong stood there and looked back at him, with a thousand emotions, he would never know that there was such a child, let alone that he and she had come to that point. She was grief-stricken, and he was grief-stricken, and she had resented him for saying such heartfelt things to her, but now that she looked back, they were all pitiful, self-harming and hurting.
Lu Mian looked at Lin Jinrong silently, whether she cried or not, he could tell the difference. But since she didn't want to talk to him, he didn't force it, he believed that one day she would take the initiative to tell him, he whispered; "I'm going to hit the road on the twenty-first day."
"The luggage is almost packed." Lin Jinrong's emotions calmed down; "My mother and aunt have discussed, tomorrow we will go to Pingji Temple together to pray for your peace. If you want to go, you can also take the time to burn a stick of incense. β
"It's not on this day, I'm free." Lu Lu stretched out his hand to her; "If you're not feeling well, I'll send you back first. I'll talk to them, elders. β
Lin Jinrong shook his head slightly; "No, I'll just take a break from below." She smiled and walked to the stone bench on the side and sat down, "I was sick last year and didn't come, and I quit halfway this year, I'm afraid that the elders will say, is the Mid-Autumn Festival against me?" That's not good. β
Lu Lu pulled the corners of his mouth cooperatively, sat side by side with her on the stone bench, and said softly; "Ah Rong, if I can win this time and pick you up, the two of us will live together in the future, you .................. Can you? β
The moonlight is like water, the night breeze is light, the sweet fragrance of osmanthus is absent, and the surroundings are quiet, only unknown small insects sing in the grass.
Lin Jinrong looked at the twinkling stars in the sky in silence, and said for a long time; "You will definitely be able to pass the test, it is nothing more than a little better or a little worse in the test." Although he passed the exam that year, he didn't do so well. Now that I think about it, if he hadn't been in the pain of losing his son at that time, he would probably have done better in the exam?
Lu Lu was very disappointed when he heard her avoid answering, and he was silent for a moment and said with a smile; "Lend you good words. I also think that I can pass the test. β
"Absolutely." Lin Jinrong bent down and plucked a few corduroys from his feet, and knitted them in the moonlight.
"What are you making up?" Lu Mian's attention was attracted by her dexterous fingers, and she couldn't help but lean over to look at it curiously.
Lin Jinrong smiled slightly; "Weaving little straw sandals. Miao Ya taught me in Zhuangzi that year. β
"Miao Ya is married now, right?" Lu Lu saw that the rush grass in her hand was about to run out, so she hurriedly handed one over.
"Yes, she married well, and my mother gave her freedom."
Lu Mu smiled at the corner of his lips and gossiped with her slowly; "At that time, you were in Zhuangzi, why were you so wild? It's just audacious and does whatever you want. I have never seen a daughter like you, my aunt spoils you so lawlessly, and I don't know what a gentle and virtuous lady is. β
Lin Jinrong replied unceremoniously; "At that time, you were like an old pedant, teaching people with a straight face, I have never seen such a rigid and annoying person as you, who is good at spoiling fun, reading without a little anger, and stingy, not likable at all. Where is it like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy? β
Lu Lu smiled; "Then we're half-pounded. No one is much better. β
Lin Jinrong pursed her lips and smiled, buried herself in weaving shoes, and most of the straw sandals were braided, and Lychee came down from Hanyue Tower to greet her; "Grandma, the old lady is looking for you."
Lin Jinrong put down the half of the straw sandals, got up and stroked his skirt, and asked Lu Xuan; "Is Min Xing going up?"
Lu Lu smiled; "I've been drinking a lot just now, and I'm a little drunk, so I'm resting here. You go first. β
"Then I'll go first." Lin Jinrong got up and walked a few steps, and suddenly heard Lu Lu whispering behind her; "Ah Rong, don't forget what I said earlier."
Lin Jinrong stood silently for a moment, continued to walk forward, walked to the stone platform and looked back, Lu Lu was still sitting there, full of moonlight.
