Chapter 302: Inside Story (1)
"Makes sense, P." Lin Shouyi couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth when he heard it.
Shi Xiuhua's face showed shock, she had always thought that her father-in-law had a good temper over the years, and she had never seen him scold him in person like this. She couldn't help but look at Lin Ding suspiciously. Lin Ding shook his head, pushed her and motioned her out, and when she got to the door, she could still vaguely hear the conversation of her in-laws in the house--
Mother-in-law Liu Xiaoya: "Don't be angry, old man, all these years have passed, do you still think about it?" If they were coming, they should have come a long time ago...... I guess it's all bad luck, even if we don't want to admit it, it's hopeless, so it's better to expose it now, so that we can at least take the second child in the future, and it's not a good thing to ask him to do more filial piety for us. ”
"It's really a woman's family, with long hair and short knowledge. What if? Father-in-law Lin Shouyi's sullen voice came, "I have long told you to treat a few children too badly, you don't listen, now it's not a little bit of a leak to make the second child suspicious......"
Shi Xiuhua suddenly had a subtle feeling in her heart when she heard this, and raised her eyes to look at Lin Ding even more suspiciously, Lin Ding shook his head slightly, and stretched out his finger to point upstairs. Shi Xiuhua nodded, and the two returned to the room on the second floor, she closed the door carefully before looking at Lin Ding and asked in a low voice: "You are so careful, is there something here that I don't know?" ”
"That's right." Lin Ding nodded and sighed, "Today, Yanzi is really bad for my parents who have been planning for half a lifetime." ”
"What do you have to plan for half a lifetime?" Shi Xiuhua was taken aback.
"Hey, are you really the second child picked up by your parents on the side of the road?" The corners of Lin Ding's mouth pulled out a shameful smile.
"I'm also wondering, to say that there was chaos at that time, and my parents dragged their families to flee and come back, and the road was already extremely difficult, how could they do this more, and pick up a child who was abandoned by their parents with such kindness?" Shi Xiuhua said the doubts she had just now, and then said curiously, "Hurry up and tell me what the truth is?" ”
"The truth? Hehe...... That's a long story. ”
"Don't sell it, what the hell is going on?" Shi Xiuhua's curiosity came up more and more, and she was anxious to know the truth.
"The truth is that the second child's father and mother are not ordinary rich and noble families, our father was just a subordinate in their big mansion back then, and our mother also served their old lady......" Lin Ding squinted his eyes and began to recall the past.
"Wait, didn't you say that our parents used to do small business outside? Why did you suddenly become a descendant of a rich and noble family? Shi Xiuhua was stunned.
"Don't you think it's easy to do small business back then? Of course, it is still attached to the rich and noble people to give people the present, although it is not so nice to say, but after all, it is safe and has a lot of money. Lin Ding glanced at Shi Xiuhua and was very dissatisfied with her interrupting him, "Do you want to listen to me?" ”
"Well, of course." Shi Xiuhua, who has lived together for many years and knows that Lin Ding still has a little bit of a young master's temper in private, laughed and disagreed, but her mouth was soft, "If you have something to say, I'll wait for you to finish talking before asking." ”
"Hmph, if you interrupt me like this, I won't say anything." Lin Ding looked at Shi Xiuhua dissatisfied, feeling a little awkward, and felt a little faceless about revealing his parents like this, but thinking that the woman in front of him had followed him for half her life, she had always been virtuous, and she gave birth to two boys and a girl She is a person who can be trusted, and it is time to tell her about some things, so she continued to talk after a little awkwardness.
"Our family name is Lin, coincidentally, the second child's father and mother are also surnamed Lin. A surname is not wrong but fate is very different, our family is poor and can only give people the current people, but their Lin family is very rich, rich to the point of oil. In those years, there was a shortage of soldiers, and in many places, anyone with a few guns could pull up a team and wander everywhere, and most of them would be eager to scrape off the skin of the rich people's homes wherever they went. It stands to reason that the Lin family is a piece of fat in anyone's eyes, but the Lin family's piece of meat is not easy to gnaw. In order to protect themselves, the Lin family also raises a group of people, so the general kind of miscellaneous army will come to the door at most to fight Xiaoqiufeng, but excessive requirements are easily not mentioned. ”
Lin Ding stopped as he spoke, revealing envy and yearning, as if he was carefully imagining the scenery of the rich Lin family that he had not seen, but only knew in the description of his parents, and people were timid and did not dare to bully casually......
Shi Xiuhua didn't need to look closely, he could easily see the crazy jealousy in his eyes.
She opened her mouth to have doubts, wanted to ask, and thought of Lin Ding's temper, subconsciously closed her mouth, and in the process of waiting quietly, she couldn't help but recall the way her in-laws treated the second child, who was really a child of the rich Lin family, and then compared them with their treatment of their own men, the more frightened they became. Suddenly, her heart skipped a beat, and she vaguely realized what her father-in-law had planned for most of his life......
She couldn't believe it in her heart, and she didn't dare to ask more, for fear that Lin Ding would really stop talking, so she concentrated more and more on stretching her ears.
Lin Ding was very satisfied when he saw Shi Xiuhua's appearance, and finally opened his mouth again with a little regret and schadenfreude: "It's a pity that the Lin family's good life is a good life, but how can you walk by the river without getting your shoes wet." That year, it happened that the second child's father and mother took someone back to their parents' house. The road was not smooth, and they must have to take men with them, but the family could not rest assured, so they took a small half of the men and horses with them when they left, and made an appointment to return the next day and the third day at the latest. It's a pity that they didn't come back in time when the time came, Mrs. Lin was not worried about being afraid of accidents, so she transferred half of the remaining manpower in the family to go out to find it, but there was no news from the second child's father, Mrs. Lin heard that an enemy of their Lin family was coming with a large number of people. ”
After saying this long paragraph, Lin Ding was a little thirsty, and motioned Shi Xiuhua to pour water for him, Shi Xiuhua was anxious to listen to it, and scolded secretly: It's really not the young master's life, but the young master's score. But even if she scolded in her heart, she didn't dare to really declare it, and even showed a little bit of it, but she still went docilely and obediently in the end. After Lin Ding drank the water, he nodded with satisfaction and continued.
"The old lady of the Lin family got the news in advance and felt that the person who came was not good. In order to be careful, she arranged for our parents to take the second child to leave the city first and settle down in a farmer's house outside the city, and also made an appointment that if no one picked them up after half a month, they would take the second child back to their hometown directly, and then they would naturally send someone to find them when they were fine. ”
