Chapter 5: Malevolent Thoughts

At this time, the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion was also a gloomy fog.

Bai Wenbin, the loyal and brave Marquis, is forty-three years old this year, and has a son and a daughter, both of whom were born to Mrs. Hou's wife, Lord Shurong.

It's not because Bai Wenbin and the lord of Shurong have a deep relationship, but because the lord of Shurong was married at the beginning, and the old marquis ordered Bai Wenbin not to take concubines, nor to mess with flowers outside. After the old marquis went a few years ago, Bai Wenbin also had the idea of taking a concubine, but the lord of Shurong was crying and making trouble, and Bai Wenbin also broke off the idea of carrying people into the mansion in order to avoid trouble, and only wanted to be happy outside.

The lord of Shurong County Chinese New Year's Eve eight years old today, and gave birth to his eldest daughter Bai Fei in the first year after marrying into the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion at the age of sixteen.

Since then, Lord Shurong has not been able to get pregnant again, so he naturally sees his only sister-in-law as if he were an eyeball. Fortunately, Bai Xiuyang is also competitive, he has been smart since he was a child, and his words and deeds are also in a certain way, although he grew up in Fuzhou, but in the eyes of the lord of Shurong, Bai Xiuyang's nobility is no worse than that of the noble children who grew up in the capital.

The county lord of Shurong has a good background, and his vision is naturally high, Bai Xiuyang is fourteen years old this year, and he will be at the age of marrying in two years, and the lord of Shurong also began to look at each other early.

It's just that Fuzhou is small after all, and there are no noble families, and the lord of Shurong usually only interacts with some official wives. It's just that the lord of Shurong grew up in the capital since he was a child, and although he has lived in Fuzhou for more than 20 years, he still can't get used to the small family spirit of the magistrate. The daughters of the official family in Fuzhou, although they all look like Zhou Zheng, but when they raise their hands and feet, they always have the rustic atmosphere of a small place, and they are not pleasing to the eye no matter how you look at them.

In the eyes of the lord of Shurong, his baby pimple Bai Xiuyang, even if he is still a princess, he is not a high climber!

Who knew that in the end, his precious son would marry the illegitimate daughter of a merchant!

Lord Shurong was so angry that he almost didn't faint.

Bai Xiuyang was much calmer.

He has just turned fourteen, and his appearance and skeleton are slightly immature, but he speaks and acts with a maturity that is not commensurate with his age.

"Mother, the matter has come to this, no matter how noisy it is, it's useless!"

Lord Shurong wiped his tears and said, "Then let the Lin family abuse you so badly?" If you marry a concubine, that's it. Although the Wu family is not famous, I heard that the family education is very strict, and Mrs. Lin is the daughter of the Wu family, so the daughter taught must not be too bad. Who knew that Lin Zhilan actually used an illegitimate daughter to prevaricate, which was really too deceitful. ”

Bai Xiuyang was a little unimpressed.

"Mother's words are wrong!" Bai Xiuyang raised his hands behind his back and slowly paced in the house, "The Lin family has no grievances with my loyal and brave Hou Mansion, and they want to use the Hou Mansion to put gold on their faces, how can they deliberately provoke us with an illegitimate daughter?" ”

Lord Shurong said hatefully: "That's why it is said that the merchants have no rules, it is incredible!" ”

Bai Xiuyang shook his head and said: "Lin Zhilan has been in business for many years, and he has long been more refined than a monkey, and there is only one reason why he did this. ”

Lord Shurong wondered, "What is the reason?" ”

Bai Xiuyang smiled: "That is, he loves this sister very much, and he loves him so much that he can fight against the whole family for her." I heard that Lin Zhilan's biological mother died early, and there is only one sister Lin Yuanniang. That Lin Yuanniang has already been married, and among the remaining sisters, the one he loves the most is this youngest sister Lin Jiuniang. ”

Seeing Bai Xiuyang's smile, Lord Shurong seemed to have a deep meaning, and hurriedly asked, "So what?" ”

Bai Xiuyang said softly: "The current Mrs. Lin is a continuation of the string, Lin Zhilan was fourteen years old when she married in, and there is no mother-son relationship between the two, and the relationship between Mrs. Lin and Lin Zhilan is only average. If I marry the concubine born to Mrs. Lin, although my face is better, how much benefit can I get except for the 150,000 taels of silver that I said? This Lin Jiuniang is the sister on the tip of Lin Zhilan's heart, and Lin Zhilan must not be willing to wronged her. In the future, as long as you take care of her, are you afraid that you won't be able to attract the Lin family's silver? Mother, you also know that nowadays, it is no longer enough to rely on the name of the Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion, and things cannot be done without yellow and white things. ”

Only then did the lord of Shurong understand Bai Xiuyang's thoughts, and he not only said angrily: "My son, having said that, I still wronged you!" ”

Bai Xiuyang said lightly: "It's just a springboard, the left and right are things for me to step on, it doesn't matter if it's dirty and clean, it's going to be thrown away sooner or later anyway!" In short, don't let her stain the blood of our Zhongyong Marquis Mansion! ”

Listening to Bai Xiuyang's words, Lord Shurong's heart suddenly brightened a lot.

Yes, it's just a springboard to throw away sooner or later, it doesn't matter if it's clean or dirty!

With Xiuyang's talent and demeanor, sooner or later he will come out.

When the time comes, kick the wild girl of the Lin family out, and then choose a good wife for him.

......

There was silence in the courtyard.

Lin Zhilan is here.

The four big girls locked the spring, knew the summer, the autumn, and the winter all saluted Lin Zhilan: "Big young master! ”

Lin Zhilan smiled and said, "What about Miss Nine? ”

Suo Chun said with a smile: "There are embroidered tweeds in the house, the eldest young master will go in first, and I will make tea for you." ”

Lin Zhilan was a little surprised.

This sister still knows a little bit about herself.

She has always been happy and sad written on her face, she has been thinking about marrying into the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion for two years, and today she finally came true, she originally thought that even if she didn't climb the tree and go to the wall, she would be happy to run around the yard like a cheerful bird.

How can it be so quiet?

Lin Zhilan was a little uneasy, and hurriedly walked into the house.

Lin Jiuniang was looking down to embroider, and when she saw Lin Zhilan, she smiled toothily and said, "Big brother, you're here." ”

Lin Zhilan was stunned.

I haven't seen you for a few days, why do you feel that Jiuniang in front of me has a strange feeling?

"Ninth sister, the people from the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion have gone back, Geng Tie has been exchanged, this family affair has been ordered, you can rest assured." Lin Zhilan sat down, Suo Chun had already walked in with the brewed tea, and seeing that the faces of the two masters were not quite right, he put down the tea cup and retreated.

Lin Jiuniang put down the embroidered bandage, her face was not happy, and she just asked quietly: "What is the ......silver?" Did you let them take it with you? ”

Lin Zhilan shook his head and said: "No, the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion will not be so anxious to ask for silver with a white face, besides, it is not a small amount, in a few days, I will send someone to send 100,000 taels of silver tickets over first." ”

Lin Jiuniang pondered for a moment and said in a low voice: "Big brother, is it worth it?" ”

Lin Zhilan was stunned again.

What's wrong with this kid,

"It's worth it, Ninth Sister, as long as you're happy, it's worth whatever the eldest brother does." Lin Zhilan said gently, "It's the Lin family who is sorry for you and your mother, and missed your mother's life." Finding a good home for you is the only thing big brother can do. ”

Lin Jiuniang's throat tightened, and her eyes turned red.

In her previous life, she was in a daze, and when she learned that she could marry into the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion, she only had happiness and happiness in her heart, but she never thought about how much pressure her eldest brother put on for this matter.

Now that the marriage has been decided, if he rashly proposes to dissolve the marriage contract, he is afraid that he will set off another round of unnecessary turmoil, so he can only plot slowly.
