145 Difficulties (3)
Tian Meijuan's body was shocked, and she shook her head with a sigh: "It's nothing." "Tian Meiniang didn't believe it, this girl in Luyin must have something to tell her, otherwise she wouldn't dare to come out even if she was given a hundred guts." If you don't tell me, I'll tell my mother when you go back. Tian Meiniang raised her head as if a proud peacock was threatening her, and Lu Yin lowered her head silently and did not make a sound.
Seeing this, Tian Meiniang angrily stretched out her hand and pinched her, but she still didn't say, the dead girl, her mouth was still quite hard, and she turned around and asked Mrs. Tian to clean her up. The beads of sweat on Lin Zhimiao's forehead changed from a fine and dense layer of fine sweat to bead-sized beads of sweat flowing down her face, but it was a pity that Steward Li did not pity the fragrance and jade. didn't care about Xiaoshu's face at all, so he wanted to sink Lin Zhimiao into the pond.
"I'll give you another chance, if you tell me who the father of the child in the womb is, I will consider letting your mother and son go, otherwise you should know the consequences!" Steward Li's patience is limited, but Lin Zhimiao's mouth is as hard as a duck, and he refuses to say who the child's father is, but insists that it is a small tree. Don't think Xiaoshu is stupid, he is just as stupid, the two of them don't have a round house at all, where did Lin Zhimiao come from.
But he couldn't say this, "Dad, I dare to swear to God, the child in my belly is really Xiaoshu's, Dad, you let me go, when Xiaoshu comes back, he will be sad!" Lin Zhimiao looked at Steward Li who was like a demon tremblingly, and her mother-in-law took the cloth away from Lin Zhimiao's mouth, not to hear her say this. She still refuses to be honest, and wants to use a small tree to scare him.
"Bah, of course I'm really blind, let Xiaoshu marry you into the door. Don't expect the tree to save you, he's sleeping in the house now! You will die of this heart, if you want to keep the child in your belly, or protect your adulterer, you choose! But I heard the doctor say that if you can't keep the baby in your womb this time, you won't have it again. I advise you to be honest about who the adulterer really is? Steward Li glanced at Lin Zhimiao indignantly, if her eyes could kill people, she was afraid that she would have died a hundred times a thousand times.
Lin Zhimiao's face was as pale as a dead man, and her whole body trembled violently as if she had been electrocuted. It's really mad that he can say this kind of thing. How many times has she said it, there is no adulterer, there is no adulterer, he just can't listen, what else can she do? It seems that even Xiaoshu can't save her today, and Lin Zhimiao can't die with the child in her womb.
It's just a pity that I didn't see Zhao and Lin Qinghe before I died, and I suddenly missed Zhao's warm embrace. She doesn't blame anyone for marrying Xiaoshu, she is a woman who was abandoned by her husband's family and can marry Xiaoshu, which is actually a gift from God to her. Xiaoshu is as innocent as a child, although she can't go out, she can eat and dress better than before, and Xiaoshu often surrounds her, chattering non-stop.
She also fantasized that when the child was born, she would raise him well, and she was full of gratitude to Xiaoshu and did not dislike her. "Shut her mouth and drag her out!" Steward Li's crisp voice swept past Lin Zhimiao's ears, and she closed her eyes tightly and stopped struggling. As soon as he walked to the door, he saw Mrs. Tian coming, and Steward Li immediately stepped forward respectfully: "I've seen Mrs. ”
"Steward Li, do you still have my wife in your eyes?" Mrs. Tian opened her mouth and asked rhetorically, and Steward Li shook her head puzzledly: "Madam, the old slave has been in Tianfu for many years, and I ask myself if I haven't done anything sorry for Tianfu, I don't know why Madame said this?" Mrs. Tian sneered a few times, and then stretched out Qianqianyu and pointed at Lin Zhimiao, who was dragged by her mother-in-law: "Where do you say this, Steward Li, do you really not understand, or are you pretending to be confused with me." You are planning to sink your daughter-in-law into the pond without saying a word, how do you let the people talk about our Tianfu? ”
Unexpectedly, he didn't wait for Lin Zhimiao's adulterer, but waited for Mrs. Tian, and Steward Li replied unhurriedly: "Madam, this is my family matter." The implication was that Mrs. Tian couldn't control it, and as soon as she finished saying this, Mrs. Tian gave Steward Li a resounding slap in the face in annoyance. Then he said undoubtedly: "Steward Li, you remember, you are a slave of the Tian Mansion, and Mrs. Ben is in charge of everything!" You two let her go and help her into the house to rest! ”
Mrs. Tian didn't believe that the two mothers-in-law would not listen to her and obey Steward Li's orders. It's really a joke, she is the head of the Tian Mansion, Steward Li is just a watchdog, Master Tian gave him three points, and he cocked his tail to the sky and regarded himself as half a master. If you don't report it, you want to sink Lin Zhimiao into the pond, but there is no her in her eyes at all, and when the master comes back, he will definitely sue him, hum!
Mrs. Tian's words made Steward Li feel cold, he had been making cattle and horses for Tianfu all these years, and in the end, he had to intervene in dealing with his daughter-in-law, Mrs. Tian. It happened that at this time, Lin Dongxian ran over panting, and the white-clothed maid went back to the yard when she was at the fork in the road, and it was inconvenient to stay with her anymore, which would make Mrs. Tian unhappy and hate Tian Meijuan.
Of course, the maid in white didn't forget to tell her that Mrs. Tian was here. The two mothers-in-law looked at each other, and did not listen to Mrs. Tian's words and took away the strip of cloth stuffed in Lin Zhimiao's mouth, Lin Dongxian did not hesitate, quickly squatted down and took it away. Lin Zhimiao's face was pale, and her body almost didn't kneel steadily, thanks to Lin Dongxian supporting her.
"Come on, give me these two disobedient minions to die!" If Mrs. Tian doesn't set rules for the subordinates in the mansion, does it mean that Steward Li can cover the sky in the Tian Mansion with one hand? Only then did the two mothers-in-law realize the seriousness, and they knelt down crying and begging for mercy, but it was too late. Soon Mama took a few little girls to pull them down, their faces were as white as rice paper, and they looked at Steward Li for help, but unfortunately he himself was a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and it was difficult to protect himself, how could he save them.
The two mothers-in-law fainted in fright and were dragged away by the little girl. Xiaoshu rushed all the way over, and when he saw Lin Zhimiao lying on Lin Dongxian's body, he held her hand distressedly: "Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, it's all my fault, I can't protect you." Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, don't be angry, okay? Xiaoshu's face was suddenly full of tears, and he raised his hand to wipe his tears without listening, crying breathlessly.
Lin Dongxian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and Steward Li didn't know how to be a father, so he actually wanted to sink Lin Zhimiao into the pond. Lin Zhimiao snuggled in Lin Dongxian's arms lifelessly, ignoring Xiaoshu, he immediately turned around and got up to Steward Li's side and beat him.
Steward Li pushed him to the ground hard: "Xiaoshu, Dad is for your good, why can't you understand Daddy's mind." What's so good about this woman, you have to protect her, the child in her belly is not yours at all. Hating iron but not steel, Xiao Shu shook his head again and again: "Dad, you are talking nonsense, you are talking nonsense, the child in my daughter-in-law's womb is mine, it is mine, I don't allow you to talk nonsense." If you dare to hurt my daughter-in-law, I will not recognize you as a father. ”
His words made Steward Li gasp angrily, the good son he raised, married his daughter-in-law and forgot his father. It's a big joke to deny him as a father for a cheap woman. "Madam, the master is back." After supervising the little maid to kill the two mothers-in-law, she hurriedly came over to pray.
"Since the master is back, you can go to the hall with me, and I believe that the master will be able to give a fair decision." Mrs. Tian gave Lin Dongxian a look and asked her to help Lin Zhimiao. Before leaving, she didn't look at Steward Li, she had long wanted her mother's younger brother to come to the house to be a housekeeper, but unfortunately Master Tian was very serious to Steward Li, she couldn't help it, now it's okay, Steward Li bumped into her hand, so she won't blame her.
No one noticed that there was a sneer on the corner of Mrs. Tian's mouth. Master Tian was drinking tea, and the little servant had already told him about the matter, and when he saw Mrs. Tian coming over with Steward Li and others, the teacup in his hand smashed straight towards Steward Li's head: "Don't kneel down yet!" ”
Frightened, Steward Li's legs weakened, so he knelt down like this, the reason why he dared to be unscrupulous was because he didn't know that Master Tian had returned home. Mrs. Tian chuckled and sat beside Master Tian, "Master, dissipate your anger, don't be angry, it's not worth it if you're angry." This is Miss Lin, Mei Niang and Mei Juan studying in their embroidery studio. Steward Li's daughter-in-law is her aunt, I think of such a big thing, I must let her mother's family know, master, you shouldn't blame the concubine for making her own opinions! ”
Lin Dongxian came to her senses at this time, if it weren't for Mrs. Tian's acquiescence, how could the white-clothed maid leave the house and take her back to the house. How does it feel like a pit, let her jump down. Mrs. Tian was afraid that she would be used as a target to deal with Steward Li, so she lowered her head and said nothing.
Master Tian raised his hand: "Madam, where are you talking about, Lao Li sank his daughter-in-law into the pond without authorization, of course, she must let her mother's family know, otherwise I think that our Tian family has no one in their eyes, and we will let the servants come wantonly in broad daylight." "I have been married to Mr. Tian for many years, and Mrs. Tian knows that he cherishes his reputation very much and is unwilling to let others talk behind his back.
Old Master Tian's cold and sharp deep gaze fell on Steward Li's body who was kneeling on the ground, like a vigorous fire burning on his body, and at the same time, a lot of beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on his forehead. Mrs. has always been unaccustomed to him getting the trust of Master Tian in the house, and she has repeatedly asked him for trouble, but now it's okay, he was careless by Lin Zhimiao. I didn't expect Master Tian to come back at this time, but now that I think about it, I'm afraid that Master Tian will have nothing to do with his wife when he returns home.
He lowered his head, his eyes were cold, his fists were clenched, and the blood in his whole body was rampant. "Lao Li, what do you have to say?" Master Tian's sharp eyes stayed on him, and he immediately raised his hand to say: "Back to the old man, it is also the old slave's housework, as the saying goes, the ugliness of a good family should not be publicized, but this time the old slave is too angry."
Xiaoshu is the only bloodline of the old slave, and I wanted to marry him a daughter-in-law, so that she could give birth to a grandson to the old slave and continue the bloodline. Unexpectedly, Lin Zhimiao, who married back, had an affair with someone and became pregnant. The child in her womb is definitely not the child of the little tree, please be the master of the old slave! Kowtowing to Master Tian again and again, this Xiaoshu couldn't help jumping up and protecting Lin Zhimiao: "Dad, you are talking nonsense, my daughter-in-law has not fornicated with anyone, Dad, you are not allowed to talk nonsense, it is obviously my son, old lady, Xiaoshu is usually not very smart, but this will not be mistaken." ”
Saying that, he squatted down and hugged the weak Lin Zhimiao tightly, and when Master Tian saw this: "Come on, help Xiaoshu's daughter-in-law down first, find a doctor to come and have a look, be sure to keep the child in her womb." ”
The little girl was just about to leave, but was interrupted by Lin Dongxian's mouth: "Master Tian, I don't think I need to, let me bring my aunt back." When I went back a few days ago, my grandparents remembered that my aunt had been married for so long, so I went back to the door for a visit. It's not that she is pregnant, and she doesn't have her mother-in-law by her side to take care of her, that's not good, I thought that my grandmother happened to be fine in the village, so I asked her to take care of her aunt and let her give birth to the child safely. After she finished speaking, her black and white eyes looked directly at Master Tian.
To Steward Li's surprise this time, Xiaoshu did not object to it, but shouted: "I want to be with my daughter-in-law, where she is, I will be there!" Like a child, Lin Dongxian held back a smile. Mrs. Tian, who was listening on the side, pursed her lips with a handkerchief and laughed, "Master, you see that the relationship between the young couple is so good, Steward Li doesn't think that his son will forget his father when he marries his daughter-in-law, so he will talk nonsense." But this is understandable, Steward Li is old. ”
In the words, it was said that Steward Li should no longer stay in Tianfu, and Master Tian squeaked back and forth to touch the jade wrench in his hand. Steward Li knew that Mrs. Tian would fall into the well, and there was a small tree that was not angry, it was not that he said that he was not with Lin Zhimiao. Why is he desperately protecting Lin Zhimiao, a slut, in front of Master Tian and Mrs. Tian, he is really ashamed to ask.
He kept silent, but Lin Dongxian didn't want to let him go, and walked in front of Steward Li with small steps: "I don't know what evidence you have to say that the child in my aunt's womb is not your son's!" There was a faint smile on his lips, and it was up to him to see how he answered. Master Tian coughed lightly a few times, and spoke for Steward Li: "Miss Lin, I see that your aunt's face is pale, so take her away quickly, Changchuan, go to the treasury and get a hundred taels of silver for Xiaoshu's daughter-in-law."
Don't worry, girl, I will definitely punish Steward Li severely. "Since this is the case, then I will thank Master Tian for upholding justice." Lin Dongxian smiled lightly and helped Lin Zhimiao to leave, Xiaoshu had to walk together, so he had no choice but to take her to the ox cart together. Why doesn't she want the silver of the white flowers, and she is not stupid! Seeing this, Mrs. Tian got up respectfully: "Master, there is still an account book in the backyard of the concubine that has not been read, so I will retire first." ”
"Well, go ahead, go back to your house for dinner." Master Tian nodded slightly, and said by the way. Seeing Mrs. Tian's back disappear from his field of vision, Master Tian glanced at Steward Li lightly, "Don't come in with me yet!" He wanted to hear Steward Li explain the ins and outs of this matter to him alone.
"What are you talking about, Yuanhe likes Xiaoshu's daughter-in-law?" Master Tian frowned, he didn't expect to hear this exciting news. I couldn't believe it, why did he and Mrs. Tian's eldest son look down on Lin Zhimiao, a girl from the countryside?
