Remember [34 Chinese Network .] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!

Before she could leave the plum forest, Pan'er saw two monks in green robes stepping on the snow, one tall and one short, the tall one looked to be in his early twenties, and the short one was only eight or nine years old, with a small face that was white and tender, and the cold wind blew red from the cold.

Xiao Shami clasped his hands together, looked at Pan'er with a serious face, and asked, "Dare to ask the female benefactor whose surname is Lin?" ”

Pan'er raised her eyebrows, bent over and looked at the little doll in front of her with a smile, and said, "I'm surnamed Lin, what's wrong?" ”

"Your mother has something to do, she has already returned to the capital first, and the abbot sent Guan Wu and his senior brother to send the female benefactor back to Beijing......"

Before seeing Wu Yong, Pan'er said to the Lin family that they would come to meet near the ink washing pavilion in half an hour, and now that the mother has returned to the capital alone, is something wrong? Thinking of this, the woman's face couldn't help but show a little worry, and she said with a pale face: "Then it will trouble the two masters." ”

There was a carriage parked in the backyard of Huguo Temple, Pan'er saw Guanwu climb up the car with both hands and feet, and it took the boss's strength to climb up, so he reached out to help him, Guanwu looked back, his round face was flushed, and he only felt that this female benefactor was really good-looking, he had never seen such a beautiful girl.

Pan'er also followed and got on the car, the carriage blocked the cold wind, Guanwu handed Pan'er a soup woman with a blue cloth, held it in her arms for a while, only to feel that her whole body was warm, she sat next to Guanwu, and found that the blush on the face of the little novice had not disappeared, so she smiled and asked:

"Little master, my mother shouldn't know the abbot of your temple, why did you two send me back today?"

Guan Wu glared at Pan'er, and muttered: "Master is master, why do you add a small one?" I heard that the Marquis of Zhongyong sent someone to inform the abbot, but I don't know what happened......"

Loyal and brave marquis?

Pan'er herself is on duty in the Zhongyong Marquis's mansion, and she has to take care of those delicate flowers and plants every day, but after doing so much daily work, the old Zhongyong Marquis has seen it a few times, but the new one has never seen it, how can it be involved with his mother?

Because she had just been frozen outside for too long, her hands holding Tang Pozi warmed up and became bloody, and at the moment she was swollen and numb, and there was a pain of being pricked by needles, Pan'er couldn't help but rub it, her head leaned against the wall of the car, and her head was a mess, first Lin's, then Wu Yong, and finally even remembered Chu Liang.

Although she has not read, she is not blind, just in the ink washing pavilion, Wu Yong's face is full of amazement can not deceive people, even if this person dislikes his identity as a second marriage, but most men are so beautiful, I am afraid that I can't even move my feet when I see a beauty, even if Wu Yong is a scholar, it will not be an exception. When the time comes, this marriage will be completed, and after he gets married, with Chu Liang's temperament, he will definitely completely extinguish the thoughts that he shouldn't have, and he will be able to make less trouble.

After an hour, the carriage returned to the capital, stopped in front of the shop, the mother and daughter were busy cleaning up these two days, and the signboard was not hung up for a while, yesterday she and the two had already discussed, the shop was called "Rong'an Fang", there were all kinds of food in it, mainly selling pickled vegetables and snacks, etc., after two days it was the Shangyuan Festival, but you could do some Lantern Festival to sell, the first dry osmanthus left in the house was not much, and you had to buy some more to be enough.

After getting out of the carriage, Pan'er asked Guan Wu to wait first, trotted into the shop, took a few pieces of chestnut cake and rock sugar osmanthus cake from the place where the Lin family made cakes, wrapped them in paper, and sent them directly into the carriage.

Children can't resist the temptation of sweets, although Guan Wu is prevaricating on his mouth, but a pair of round and bright eyes seem to be stuck to the paper bag, his nose twitches a few times, obviously spoiled by the fragrance of this pastry, but he swallowed his saliva.

Pan'er couldn't help laughing, put the pastry on the carriage, thanked him, and turned back to the shop.

Closing the wooden door, Pan'er looked around, but did not find Lin's figure, she frowned, pulled her skirt with her little hand, went directly up the stairs, walked to Lin's door, and knocked lightly twice:

"Mother, are you in there?"

"Come in."

Hearing the movement, Pan'er pushed the door open, and at a glance, she saw Lin sitting on a round stool. After taking a closer look, Pan'er found that although Lin's expression was good, his eyelids were slightly red and swollen, and his soft white wrists seemed to have been rubbed against the skin, and the skin and flesh were all blue and purple.

Pan'er only felt a buzzing sound in her head, and rushed directly to Lin's side without caring about anything, pulled her wrist, and couldn't help but raise her voice: "What happened?" Why did you come back first? Pan'er was afraid that when she didn't pay attention, the Lin family was wronged, she lived two lives, and the only obsession in her heart was to want to protect her own mother, if she couldn't even do this, then she would be too useless.

Lin was a little hurt by Pan'er's pinching, and wanted to withdraw his hand, but found that Pan'er was clenching his teeth, his whole body was tense, and he was just squatting on the ground, motionless.

With a soft heart, Lin gently patted Pan'er's hand and said: "I met a villain in the forest just now, but fortunately I met Zhongyong Hou, and after being rescued by him, I was sent back directly......

Pan'er's face was full of suspicion, the two of them had just entered Beijing for a few months, how did the Lin family meet the Marquis of Zhongyong? She didn't think that the dignified Hou Ye would take care of a widow she didn't know so carefully, couldn't it be that the loyal and brave Marquis saw the beauty of the Lin family and moved his bad heart?

"In any case, you can stay in Beijing in the future, I will accompany you, let's not mess around......" It doesn't hurt if something happens to her, but the Lin family has suffered for so many years, and her health is not good, once she suffers a crime, whether she can survive this hurdle is still two words, Pan'er only has such a relative left, so she naturally has to be careful.

The reason why I went to Huguo Temple today was completely for the sake of being a person, the Lin family had never seen Wu Yong before, and now he couldn't help but ask: "What about Wu Xiucai?" ”

Pan'er blushed, her big watery eyes dodged slightly, and said: "I look quite delicate, and I am also gentle, but I can't read, if I marry a showman, I am afraid he will have to dislike me......"

Even if the men say that a woman is not talented is virtuous, but if his daughter-in-law really doesn't know a big word, I'm afraid there will be no fewer problems in the future, Lin wanted to call Pan'er literate early in the morning, although she is not a talented woman, and there is not much ink in her belly, but it is no problem to know a few words.

"Go buy pen, ink, paper, and inkstone tomorrow, these things have to be prepared, and then read some women's rings and the like, just say a few words, besides, Wu Xiucai is only a little talented, not a talent, you don't have to worry too much, whether this marriage is successful or not, it depends on what the Wu family thinks."

Pan'er sat up straight, she didn't think that Wu Yong would look down on her, after all, the man straightened his eyes when he saw her, and he couldn't move a step, obviously he was in love.

The mother and daughter said okay, Pan'er slowed down slightly, helped Lin wash the pork belly with skin, cut it into two finger-wide strips, found a clean cotton cloth, carefully dried the water on the pork, and put it in the white porcelain bowl on the side, Lin put minced ginger, sugar salt, soy sauce and other seasonings into the bowl, and kneaded it with his hands, so that the meat pieces would be more flavorful.

If you want to do a good job, the rice noodles must not be sloppy, the rice grains must be of moderate size, soft taste, with the aroma of meat and rice for the top grade, Lin while frying rice noodles in the iron pot, Pan'er while dripping some spiritual spring water into the sea bowl of marinated meat, the aroma of rice noodles gradually seeped out in the kitchen, usually the mother and daughter are just a hasty bite because of more things, today Lin is rarely free, she naturally eats more.

Another stove stewed a dusty porcelain jar, the things in the porcelain jar are more greedy than the rice noodles fried on the iron pot, the live fish in the winter is less, yesterday when Pan'er came back from the Zhongyong Marquis's Mansion, I saw an old man selling fish on the street, I heard that there is a small river in the suburbs of Beijing, now the weather is cold and frozen, there is a thick layer of ice on the river, you have to use a chisel to chisel for a long time to break through the ice surface a hole, fortunately, the carp in it is very fat, Pan'er bought it back and put it in the house to raise, just Lin came back early, The carp, which is not light, was scaled and disemboweled, and the fish fillet was directly sliced, and the fish fillet porridge was boiled in a pot.

The amount of food for the two of them is not large, one meat and one vegetarian plus the soft and glutinous fish fillet porridge is just right, and when the Lin family steamed the steamed pork in the pot, Pan'er remembered that there was a little Ning Cui paste from the Hou Mansion in the room, before her hands were burned by the tea soup, the old man took a box for Pan'er, because there was spiritual spring water, that thing has been placed in the house, and it has not come in handy until now.

Previously, in the Huguo Temple, the Lin family rubbed the skin on his hands, although there was no blood, but it was estimated that it was not comfortable to touch.

After entering the house, she rummaged left and right in the cabinet and searched, I don't know how many bits and pieces in it, Pan'er took a lot of effort to find out the exquisite blue and white box, opened the lid, a cool aloe vera fragrance went straight to the nose, poured a few drops of spiritual spring water into the porcelain box, stirred it with clean chopsticks, Pan'er then closed the lid, took the Ning Cui paste to the kitchen, and said to Lin's good words, this is the medicine.

Originally, this condensation paste was better than the ordinary wound medicine, and at this moment, the spiritual spring water was added to it, and the effect was only strong but not weak, Lin just wiped the ointment on his hand, and the stinging sensation disappeared a lot, and when the steamed pork was ready, most of the blood marks that were originally ground out on the stone had disappeared, and only a trace remained.

Pan'er brought the food to the table, usually their mother and daughter eat simply, usually stir-fried a side dish, with two bowls of porridge to deal with the past, like today's big fish and meat is really not much, Pan'er gobbled up the vegetables and stuffed them into her mouth, Lin saw it, and the two curved willow eyebrows couldn't help frowning.

"Eat slowly, there are only two of us at the dinner table, and no one is competing with you to grab it, if you are married and still look like this, you have to be talked about, chew at least ten times in one mouthful of food, so that it will not hurt your stomach, but also raise your body......"

When Pan'er heard this, the speed of picking vegetables slowed down, and according to Lin's words, she chewed and swallowed slowly, she was a little unaccustomed to it at first, but Lin's kung fu to eat a meal has been staring at her, and in desperation, Pan'er can only eat in small bites.

After eating, Pan'er took some alkaline noodles to wash the dishes, Lin wanted to help, and was pushed out of the kitchen by Pan'er, seeing her daughter so hard, she also felt a little bad in her heart, fortunately, there are not a few guests who come to the shop to buy food during the day, as long as the fifty taels of silver owed to Ya Po are returned, her mother's life can be better.

Wu family.

Wu Yong left from the Huguo Temple in a trance, his mind was full of Pan'er's delicate appearance with a smile, there are many beautiful women in this world, but like Lin Pan'er is so delicate, Wu Yong is still the first time to see it, after arriving at Wu's house, Wu's mother greeted him, dusted the snowflakes on Wu Yong's shoulders with a handkerchief, and said dissatisfiedly: "Your uncle is really too much this time, obviously Lin Pan'er has been married before, and even asked you to look at her, clearly saying that it is a harmony, but in fact, there may be something pickled, You find an excuse to push this matter directly, our family can't afford to lose this person......"

Seeing his mother's face full of disgust, Wu Yong came back to his senses, with a somewhat strange expression on his face, followed Wu's mother into the main hall, sat on a stool, took the tea bowl and drank a sip of slightly hot tea soup, thinking about how to open his mouth so as not to provoke his mother's anger.

Wu Yong's absent-minded appearance was obviously impossible to hide, and when Wu's mother saw this, she asked tentatively: "Don't you really fall in love with that Lin Paner?" ”

"Mother, my son met Lin Paner once today, she is indeed a good girl, and her temperament is also gentle and supple, although she has a bad background, she has been married once before, but it is such a woman who is filial, after the son marries Lin Paner, someone will help you take care of the family, and you don't have to work so hard......"

No matter how good Wu Yong's words are, he almost wore out his mouth, but the expression on Wu's mother's face still did not get any better, and even became more angry, she slapped the table fiercely, and said coldly: "What is that cheap hoof?" You just saw her, and you clamored to marry someone, I think she is also a seducer, if the means are not enough, how can you become this virtuous? ”

"Mother's ......"

"That's it!" Wu's mother's heart hurt, she never thought that she had raised her son for more than 20 years, but she went out today, just for a little prostitute who has been married twice, she can make such a moth without entering the door, if she really marries Lin Paner, the head of this family may not know what will happen.

Mother Wu held her breath and went back to the bedroom, Master Wu was leaning on the soft couch, and when she saw her wife's angry face flushed, she asked: "What's wrong, why do you move such a big liver fire?" ”

"It's not your good son, it's just that I saw Lin Pan'er once, and when I came back, I wanted to marry someone, wouldn't that kind of slut be embarrassed if he entered the gate of the Wu family?"

Master Wu smacked his lips: "That being said, but Lin Pan'er is a desperate family, there is no brother support in the family, if Yong'er marries her, the shop that her family bought in the city will become Yong'er's, our family has no permanent birth, I will go to Beppu to be a teacher, where can I get money faster than Lin's mother and daughter?" If you think about it, is that true? ”

Wu's mother's eyes flashed, only after becoming home did she know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive, her son is still studying, although the family is passable, but after inviting a scholar and two maids, she is also a little stretched, listening to her brother-in-law said that although the mother and daughter of the Lin family are outsiders, they came to the capital less than three months ago, and they bought a shop on the front street and took root, obviously they also have silver on hand.

Thinking about it this way, although Lin Pan'er has been married once, it can make Yong'er's life after marriage more comfortable, but if she has some indifferent habits, I am afraid that it will take a lot of effort to train her.

Seeing that Wu's mother's attitude was a little shaken, Master Wu said good things again and again, although his son is good at reading, but there is really no money in the family, just the silver he used as a teacher is not enough to chew in a month, and his brother's business has become more and more prosperous over the years, and he can receive some help every month, otherwise this day will be even more sad. Although Master Wu has read books for so many years, he is more like a businessman, and the abacus in his heart is crackling, and he refuses to suffer at all.

The marriage event is the words of the matchmaker at the behest of the parents, if Wu's mother is unwilling, this marriage will not be possible no matter what.

Wu Yong's heart seemed to be pressed on a boulder, lying on the bed tossing and turning, but he didn't even feel sleepy, Lin Paner was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen, apricot eyes and peach cheeks, red and tender little mouth moist, thin white neck, down is a plump and towering snow ball, even if the pair is tightly wrapped in a peach-colored jacket, but Wu Yong is not a blind man, how can he not see the exquisite curves?

Today in Merlin, he couldn't wait to directly crush Lin Paner in the snow, tear off the little jacket on her body, reveal her snow-white and soft body, and carefully taste the seductive body.

Even if Wu Yong disagrees with Wu's mother's statement, he also thinks that she has a sentence right, a woman like Lin Paner is a seducer at first glance, otherwise how could he be full of her?

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that my mouth was dry, the room was very quiet at night, the man's breathing was extremely obvious, a little heavy, and he put his hand into his pants. In the crotch, up and down. moving, after a while, the man snorted, there was a fishy smell in the room, Wu Yong gasped even more, got out of bed and changed into a pair of obscene pants, and after drinking a sip of herbal tea, the heat in his heart decreased a little.

Early in the morning of the second day, Wu Yong got up and looked obviously bad, Wu's mother saw her son's virtue, and she was even more disgusted with Lin Pan'er in her heart, but the hoof was the most suitable, if you missed it, it would be difficult to find one, it was better to let Yong'er marry someone back first, if there was any indiscriminate problem, teach it slowly.

"I found a matchmaker with your father, and I will go to Lin's house today to talk and talk about peace......"

Hearing this, Wu Yong thought that he had heard it wrong, and after reacting, his face was full of joy, and he looked restless.

When the Wu family sent the matchmaker to go, Pan'er was in the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion, not at home, she still remembered that the Lin family said that they would teach her to read, and they bought paper and pens in the morning, and only waited for the night to go back to study hard.

The Lin family wanted to find a home for Pan'er, but the matchmaker's verbal kung fu was extremely strong, and the dead could be said to be alive, which made the Lin family extremely satisfied with Wu Yong.

Today, Wu Yong and Master Wu also came together, and when the Lin family saw the real person, they also felt that this person's appearance was good, and he was bookish, and he seemed to have a gentle personality.

After saying that the matchmaker still got Najib, the Lin family handed over Pan'er's eight characters to Master Wu, and how happy she was in her heart, before her daughter met someone unladylike, because Qi Chuan had delayed all these years, and lost her reputation in vain, and now she finally met a good one, her net worth is innocent, and there is some ink in her stomach, but it is a pity that she does not have much cash in her hands, and she can't prepare a dowry for Pan'er, if she is looked down on by her mother-in-law's family, she doesn't know what to do.

After Pan'er came back with paper and pen at night, she knew that a matchmaker came to the door today, she put things on the wooden table, a pair of big eyes were full of brilliance, and her little face was ruddy, obviously very happy.

Lin stretched out his hand to poke her head, and said: "I haven't seen you so shameless, today the Wu family just made a matchmaker, and the marriage has not yet been decided, so they are happy to make you look like this, it is really an outgoing girl......"

Laying the pen and paper on the table, Pan'er shouted for Lin to teach her to read, and the mother and daughter laughed together, waiting until the night was getting darker before going to rest.

Dingbei Hou Mansion.

Den.

The dark guard knelt on one knee, a big drop of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his voice trembled slightly: "The Wu family invited someone to talk to the matchmaker, and it is estimated that the marriage is almost decided......"

There was a crisp sound, and the tea bowl held by the man in his hand was broken into several pieces in an instant because he couldn't stand the force, and the corners were sharp, piercing a hole in Chu Liang's palm, and the red blood was gushing out, dripping on the mahogany desk.

The general didn't say a word, and the guard who was kneeling on the ground was beating a drum in his heart, he couldn't figure it out even if he wanted to break his head, but she was just a woman from a small family, except for that face, what was better than others? If you really like it, you will be taken directly to the Hou Mansion to occupy your body, you can make a lot of trouble at first, and after a long time, it will be safe, why do you have to spend so much thought, and send him to the door of the Lin family to star, and now the ducks in the mouth are flying, I really hold my breath.

Chu Liang waved his hand and motioned for the dark guard to retreat.

When the carved wooden door of the study was closed, the man's face showed a cruel smile, and the tiger's eyes revealed a fierce light.

The man never thought that Lin Paner's courage would be so big, the front foot just rejected him, and the back foot hooked up with other men, and now he even wants to marry someone in a hurry, like this water-based poplar woman, even if she marries someone else, will she be able to settle down?

Chu Liang didn't believe it.
