Chapter 22: Eyes
Grandpa looked at me after saying this.
The reason why he said this was probably not because Shen Jingyun spoke disrespectfully, but because he felt that I had been wronged.
He was dissatisfied before, and said a word to me, saying that I was messing with that kid from the Shen family.
looked at my expression again, and guessed that I had feelings for Shen Jingyun.
Now, Shen Jingyun and Lin Ruolan's brother-in-law appeared, although they did not identify themselves, Lin Ruolan only said that Shen Jingyun was a friend. But Lin Ruolan tidied up Shen Jingyun's clothes, who can not understand the intimate movements of the two?
Grandpa may not like me to be with Shen Jingyun, he must not see me being angry and wronged.
As he spoke, my grandfather had already strode towards Shen Jingyun, and I looked at my grandfather and felt his thoughts, and my heart was slightly warm.
But I also think it's not interesting and necessary, I like Shen Jingyun, but from the moment he called Lin Ruolan's name in the village, didn't I actually make a choice, and I want to stay away from this person in the future? It's just that the mood of liking someone can't be diluted in just a few days.
After that, whether I am sad or missing, it is just an emotional process.
I really don't want to have any more entanglement with this man, especially today, and what he said made me feel like I should die.
And at this time, facing his grandfather striding towards him, Shen Jingyun was very silent, pursing the corners of his mouth and not knowing what he was thinking. I don't think he's going to do anything with my grandfather, although I don't know how capable my grandfather is. But I know that if I don't say anything at this time, it may be a chicken feather situation after that.
So, I stood up, walked a few steps quickly, grabbed my grandfather who was walking towards Shen Jingyun, and said to him in a coquettish tone: "Grandpa, don't be angry. Shen Jingyun is my friend, he is here to care about my situation, even if there is something wrong with the words, you don't have to worry about him, others are good. ”
At this time, my grandfather turned his head and looked at me with some astonishment: "This kid is so begging, Xiaoshuang, don't you want to clean him up?" ”
It was also at this time that Lin Ruolan walked over from Shen Jingyun's side.
She immediately grabbed my hand with both hands, and I looked up, only to see her eyes looking at me with tears in her eyes: "Is it Xiaoshuang?" Are you Lin Xiaoshuang? It's the first time I've heard of your name. You used to be young, but in our family, I called you Shanshan. Originally, your father was my father's brother, and you should have come to this world before me. However, my aunt is weak, and it was not easy to have you, and you are late, so your nickname is Shanshan. ”
Is there such an allusion? I really don't have any memory at all.
It's just that Lin Ruolan is now looking at me with tears in her eyes, full of emotion, and telling the story of our childhood, I can't help but give a response, so I can only smile and say, "I should call you sister, right?" It's a pity that I don't know anything about what happened when I was a child, and I'm sad to hear you talk about it, but I don't have an impression. I don't know what's going on here, and I hope that if my sister has the heart in the future, she will take care of it more. ”
I don't know how I managed to say this so hypocritically, in fact, even if I don't have Shen Jingyun in the middle, my emotions towards Lin Ruolan are complicated.
Objectively speaking, she gave people the impression of sincerity, including holding my hand with teary eyes. Moreover, whether she speaks or acts, there is nothing to blame, and ordinary people should like her very much.
But I just can't like her, I can only say that she doesn't make any bad impression on me.
But this emotion is definitely not jealousy of her, it's just that I don't like it. I know very well how I feel, especially when Lin Ruolan holds my hand, this feeling is even more obvious.
That's why I feel like I'm being hypocritical.
But my grandfather seemed to be very satisfied with my performance, and he looked at me with some kindness and said, "Yes, you were indeed called Shanshan when you were a child. It's just that after leaving the Lin family, I didn't call you by this nickname anymore, so as not to add to the sadness. Since Ruolan is still so impressed with you, and you are not as inflammatory, you can walk around with Ruolan. ”
When Lin Ruolan heard this, she also smiled obediently and said to me: "Xiaoshuang, you may not have an impression at all when you were a child. Among the many children of the Lin family, my relationship with you is the best, although you were just a 'babbling' baby at that time, but you liked to play with me the most. I still remember that you smiled when you saw me and asked me to hug me. At that time, I was just a 3 or 4-year-old child, where could I hold you? Later, it was your father, my third uncle, who saw that I really wanted to hug you, so he tied you to my back with a rope, and I played with you everywhere like this. ”
Lin Ruolan seemed to sigh very much, and she talked a lot.
But is there really such a past? I just remember that in my trance-like memories, I clearly saw little Lin Ruolan, her complicated eyes looking at me when I was born.
But of course I won't say this kind of thing, and even when I talked to Shen Jingyun about my hallucination, I didn't reveal this detail.
So, I could only make a confused and moved look. Because I don't know what the situation is now, for example, what did Lin Ruolan suddenly come to the door for? But I just intuitively feel that I can't tear my face with Lin Ruolan, and I still have to maintain an appropriate response to what she says and does.
The first reason, I am very clear, that is, I don't want to lose my grandfather's face and make other Lin family members think that his granddaughter is a person who doesn't know how to behave in the world.
The second reason is that it is really a very strong intuition, and I don't want Lin Ruolan to see through me.
Hearing Lin Ruolan's long words, grandpa also gave a positive answer: "When Xiaoshuang was just born, she was indeed the closest to Ruolan among all the children. It's just that there is no need to mention these old things, after all, as we leave the Lin family, they will disappear. ”
At the time of our conversation, Shen Jingyun had no sense of existence at all.
He stood quietly aside, his expression still so calm and calm, he couldn't see what he was thinking.
I didn't bother to pay attention to him anymore.
Like a person is always easy to become very humble, clearly can speak and do things well, it is because of the existence of the person you like, and become a source of gains and losses, even down to the dust.
Why did I have to be so aggrieved just now? felt that the moment Lin Ruolan appeared, she was as humble as a bun. Isn't it because Shen Jingyun is by her side?
I secretly made up my mind that if I wanted to eliminate this effect, I would have to die completely, even though I was weak before.
No one knows what I'm thinking at the moment, and in the eyes of others, I'm just a girl holding my grandfather and smiling sweetly.
But Lin Ruolan's eyes showed a hint of disappointment: "Fifth grandfather, aren't you going back to the Lin family?" Xiaoshuang now that I know my identity, I should go back to tell my ancestors, inform the Lin family, and let her recognize her ancestors and return to her ancestors. After all, Xiaoshuang is a descendant of the Lin family, and her blood is strong, so it is a matter of course to recognize her ancestors and return to her ancestors. Second, Xiaoshuang is also a descendant of the Lin family, and it is impossible not to have talent. She should be a cultivator, and it is not conducive to her cultivation outside. ”
Having said this, Lin Ruolan seemed to be a little anxious, and continued: "Moreover, Fifth Grandfather, I heard that there are evil cultivators from Nanyang who are eyeing Xiaoshuang. How can the people of my Lin family be reckless! Lin Ruolan's eyes finally showed a hint of fierceness, but she immediately softened, she shook my hand again, and said, "But no matter what, it's still safe at home." Xiaoshuang, there are still many relatives at home, will you go home? ”
Lin Ruolan is smart, so smart that I have to admire, every word she says is from my point of view, and every reason is irrefutable.
But in my heart, I only have feelings for my grandparents, and the Lin family has no feelings. Moreover, seeing the various faces of the cultivator family in the small village next to the Shen family, I didn't feel the mood to wade into troubled waters.
What I want most in my heart is to rely on my grandfather from now on and serve him, no matter how many ups and downs, it will always be our grandfather and grandson.
I don't want any rich life, I can have no worries about food and clothing, and it is enough to be warm and dependent.
But this kind of refusal shouldn't be me, in the face of Lin Ruolan, I still feel at ease to be a "stupid girl", so I showed a look of being at a loss, and looked at my grandfather for help.
Either way, this kind of thing should be decided by grandpa.
Sure enough, after listening to Lin Ruolan's request, grandpa waved his hand and said, "If you can't go back to the Lin family, Ruolan, you junior don't care about it." Some things about our family and the Lin family must have an explanation. If you don't know it, you don't need to worry. Besides, now Xiaoshuang is by my side, and I will bear all the forces of the East, South and West. ”
"No, Fifth Master Lin. It's not as simple as you think. Xiaoshuang, I will also take action to protect, and in the next few days, Xiaoshuang will have to be with me and deal with some things in order to never suffer in the future. Unexpectedly, at this time, Shen Jingyun, who had not spoken much, suddenly spoke.
The tone was very flat, very direct, without the slightest turn, but it was the kind of tone that no one could refuse.
As soon as Shen Jingyun's words fell, my grandfather's eyes showed a hint of amusement and surprise, but it was Lin Ruolan, I couldn't understand her eyes at that moment.
