Chapter One Hundred and One

Lin Chengyin looked at Xue Ying, a pair of black eyes fixed on her face, but seeing that her eyes were terrifyingly scarlet, his body shook. Thinking about the words that the third child said, all of a sudden, he felt that he really couldn't live with his wife all these years. But Rong Niang has been so pitiful since she was a child, he said that he would treat her for the rest of his life to ensure that she has no worries about food and clothing, how can he break his promise now?

"Yingniang, if you hate Sister Yue'er, you will be angry with me. He stood in front of his wife, but he lost his previous arrogance, and lowered his head, "I'm sorry that the person who can't stand you is me, but you can spare Yue'er once, she is still young, and she should be given a chance to change." ”

Xue Ying suddenly laughed angrily: "Second Lin Lao, what did you do when your baby daughter Lin Yue framed Wanwan and ruined her appearance? Have you ever thought that Wanwan is still young and ignorant? What happened later? Wan Wan was wronged, what did you do?" she said, as she approached him step by step, and when she said that she was angry, she stretched out her hand, and the long Kodan scratched his face fiercely, "You have no face, what is the use of this skin? It is better to let me scratch it, you just hide at home and don't go out to meet people." ”

The family watched Xue Ying beat their man, but none of them stood up to dissuade them, first, because they all felt that Lin Chengyin should be beaten, and second, now that the whole family is relying on the protection of the Xue family, and Xue Ying's temperament has changed greatly, who dares to stand up and speak?

The old marquis was like a stone lion, standing steadily in the center, and when he saw that the second daughter-in-law was tired, he said: "Second daughter-in-law, over the years, my Lin family has not been able to live with you." What do you do with these people now, if the second brother dares to say more, I will swear to break his dog's legs. ”

"Ying Niang......" Lin Chengyin's black eyes were staring at Xue Ying's face, with a slight begging meaning, "You give Yue'er another chance, if she dares to make a mistake next time, you don't have to say it, even I won't forgive her." Look at her, how confident and proud she used to be, but now she has become like this, her appearance is ruined, and she has nothing. ”

Xue Ying ignored him, just turned to the old Marquis Lin and said: "The Su family actually hooked up with the little maid in the house, did not abide by women's morality, should be punished by the cane fifty, and then driven out of the door, in the future, wherever the Lin family is there, she must retreat." Lin Yue, the second girl of the Lin family, at a young age, was vicious, and wanted to murder the girl several times, so she should be removed from the family tree, and she will no longer be a member of the Lin family in the future, and she is not worthy of the surname Lin. ”

"Ying Niang!" Lin Chengyin didn't expect his wife's punishment to be so severe, he thought that at most, he would drive their mother and daughter back to Zhuangzi, where there were still some rough mothers-in-law waiting, but now it is good, drive out of the house directly, and Rong Niang is still burdened with such a crime, Sister Yue'er......

"I'm not done yet. Xue Ying turned around and glared at Lin Chengyin fiercely, then turned back to the old marquis and said, "As for the second master, he knows the guilt of this mother and daughter, but he has repeatedly shielded him, if the old marquis also expels him out of the door, I won't stop him." If the old marquis and the old lady are reluctant, at least they have to ensure that he can't afford to make waves in the future. ”

Mrs. Lin felt that this second daughter-in-law was too rampant now, this was her own family, even if her surname was Xue, she could not be the head of her Lin family.

"Second daughter-in-law, he is your husband, and those irrelevant people will be punished, how can you still have the heart to punish him? Mrs. Lin had some scruples, in front of the old marquis, she didn't dare to say too harsh words, so she could only say in a low voice, "Old marquis, in my opinion, the Su family and this girl will be calculated according to what the second daughter-in-law said, as for the second ...... You've already beaten up, I see, forget it. ”

Xue Ying said: "He is still an official now, if his mother-in-law thinks that he is tired of being an official, he can not do it." ”

Old Mrs. Lin's mouth pursed, and she didn't dare to say anything more, so she could only stand aside silently.

Xue Ying bent down towards the old marquis and said, "Everything is left to the father-in-law, and the daughter-in-law will not disturb the father-in-law and mother-in-law, so she will retreat first." With that, he took a pair of children back to the courtyard to rest.

When Xue Ying walked away, Mrs. Lin dared to raise her head again to speak, and said angrily: "What's wrong with this second daughter-in-law now? Why did she become such a scoundrel, old marquis, look at her, she still dares to show me a face." Even if she is a member of the Xue family, no matter what, she can't bully me, who is a mother-in-law. ”

"You don't talk nonsense here!" Old Marquis Lin listened to his wife's nagging in his ear, he was very irritable, and glared at her fiercely with bald eyes, "You'd better reflect on yourself, don't think about what you have and don't have all day long, you give me an honest point." Lao Tzu told you, if you dare to do anything behind your back, Lao Tzu will be able to beat it. ”

Mrs. Lin lowered her head and didn't dare to gasp, but she listened to her husband's words a few words, and it was hard to say.

~~~

Xue Ying brought a pair of children back to her yard, and after entering the yard, Xue Ying grabbed one with one hand, and said with a rather solemn expression: "Sister Wan, Brother Chao, your mother is most concerned about you, you sisters and brothers must live in harmony and support each other in the future." Brother Chao is short-tempered, Sister Wan is calmer, Brother Chao will listen to his sister more in the future, you know?"

Something happened at home, which made Lin Chao feel that he had to protect his mother and sister more and more.

He nodded seriously and said: "Mother rest assured, my son understands, if my brother-in-law dares to bully my sister in the future, I will rush to Yizhou single-handedly, and I will also seek justice for my sister." ”

Lin Wan's face turned red, pinched his younger brother, and glared at him fiercely: "Stinky boy, how can you talk to me." ”

Lin Chao had rough skin and thick flesh, and he was pinched by his sister, and he didn't feel pain at all.

What he said just now was not a joke, nor did he deliberately laugh at his sister, he said seriously: "Sister, what I said is true, you marry so far, if their family dares to bully you, you must write to me." Suddenly, seeing that his sister's eyes were red, he pursed his lips, "Women are really troublesome, they were fine just now." ”

After that, he pulled out a silk scarf hidden by Lin Wan on the cuffs and handed it to her: "Wipe it for you." ”

Lin Wan burst into tears and laughed, pulled the silk scarf and covered his nose and twisted his nose fiercely, then raised his head, reached out and patted his younger brother on the shoulder and said: "Brother Chao, you are not young anymore, when your sister is not at home in the future, you take good care of your mother, you know? Don't be too impulsive in everything, think about the cause and effect when you encounter things, my sister is worried about your hot temper." ”

It's rare for Lin Chao not to talk back to his sister today, just standing in front of her obediently, looking quite serious.

"That Zhao Yong, I've seen it a few times, it doesn't look like a good person to get along with, it's like a piece of ice. He scratched his head, looking very incomprehensible, "When I learned the news that Your Majesty gave you a marriage, I couldn't believe it, but I didn't expect it to be true." Sister, to be honest, I've always wanted Cousin Xue to be my brother-in-law. ”

Xue Ying glanced at her daughter, but when she saw her silently lowering her head, she glared at her son and said, "You stinky boy, where did you hear these bastard words, you dare to say it in front of your sister." In the future, if you tell your mother to know that you are talking nonsense in front of your sister, your mother will beat you. ”

Lin Chao shrugged his shoulders, then smiled, and strode to the side to sit down to drink tea.

The mother and son sat together and talked for a while, when a mother-in-law walked in outside, waved at Xue Ying's mother and son, and then replied: "Madam, the old marquis ordered someone to beat the Su family and Miss Yue, and one of them was punished with a cane for fifty. After the fight, the second master ran back, insisting that the Su family and the Yue girl were wronged, and asked the old marquis to redress the grievances. ”

Xue put down the embroidery work in his hand, raised his eyes to look at the mother-in-law and said, "What did the old marquis say?"

The mother-in-law replied: "It's strange to say, it's still the Su family who dragged the second master to prevent him from making trouble again, Su said that she accepted her fate, whether she was beaten and driven out, or was wronged, it was up to you, Mrs., to have the final say, and she would not argue again." What did she cry again, how pitiful her life was, and how unjust God was...... However, the man is gone, like a lost dog. ”

"Seeing the Su family's mother and daughter end up like this, didn't the master stop him?" Lin Wan, who was sitting on the side picking up herbs, was surprised, and also put down the things in his hand, turned his head to look at the mother-in-law and said, "Didn't the master say a word?"

The woman said: "The old man was knocked out by the old marquis with a thick wooden stick, and this time he was locked up and faced the wall." The old Hou Ye said that next time, if he knew that he would secretly have dealings with the Su family's mother and daughter, he would directly break his legs, and he would not be allowed to take half a step out of the Hou Mansion in the future, so the official would naturally not have to do it again. ”

Xue Ying pulled the corners of her mouth and only smiled faintly, which was quite sarcastic.

Then he waved to the woman and said, "Okay, I know, you go down and get the reward." ”

~~~

Su's mother and daughter were beaten and covered in blood, and after the beating, they were thrown out, and the two couldn't even move, let alone stand up and walk.

Lin Hui dragged one leg and wanted to rush out of the door, but was stopped by the strong woman who was waiting by the door.

"Second master, the old marquis said that this Su mother and daughter are no longer from our Hou Mansion. Not only that, but if the old marquis knew that anyone dared to help them privately, the next person to be punished would be the one who helped. The mother-in-law's face was full of wrinkles, and there was no trace of a smile on her face, she stretched out her two thick arms and said to Lin Hui unceremoniously, "The second master can think clearly, the old marquis has already said that as long as you step out of this threshold this time, you will no longer be a member of the Lin family." ”

Although Su Shi was beaten to the point of not being human, her consciousness was still sober, and as soon as she heard this, she immediately looked up at Lin Hui.

"Second master, you go in quickly, leave us alone. Su Shi is in pain all over her body now, as long as her body moves a little, it is a pain that affects her muscles and bones, but there is no way, she and her daughter have ruined their future this time, and they can no longer let their son ruin their future, so she used all her strength and shouted hoarsely, "Sister Yue and I have ended up like this this time, you must come out and stay in the green mountains, not afraid of no firewood." Second master, you have to be good. ”

After Lin Hui wasted one leg, the whole person was basically wasted, and he rarely stayed at home, usually either sleeping in flowers and willows, or looking for a street to drink some wine, and then spend his days at the mouth of the street and alley. The days are chaotic, and people are no longer as clear and energetic as before, not only are they scumbags all day long, but they don't have any spirit in the whole person.

He was really angry, and at the same time, he felt that it was really unfair, the old marquis was unfair!

Not only is the old marquis unfair, there is no fair thing in this world, and God is not fair!

Thinking of him Lin Hui, where is it worse than the uncle and the third master? The result is good, the old lady actually asked her to marry a woman who was born as a slave, what is he?

Lin Wan's girl deliberately set up a situation to frame him, and the old marquis couldn't help but say, and waved a spear to break the meridian of one of his legs.

So far, he is just a wasted person, what if he stays at home? Does he continue to look at people's faces and suffer from that wretchedness? He can't do it, he can't watch his birth mother and sister live on the streets, he wants to protect them. Not only must they protect them well, but they must also fight for their strength, and when they have a chance in the future, they will come back to seek revenge.

Thinking of this, Lin Hui couldn't care about anything anymore, so he used all his strength to push away the two rough women.

Seeing this, Su Shi's whole body was about to faint, if her son was also driven out, then what else could she fall into the future? After swallowing her anger for so many years, she had already sacrificed herself and her daughter, did she still want to drag her son into the water? Thinking of this, Su Shi immediately took out a dagger from his sleeve, put it against his neck, and threatened: "Second Master, if you take a step closer, I will cut my throat with a knife, so that you will never see me again in the future." ”

Lin Hui suddenly stopped, then bent his knees, knelt down towards the Su family, and kowtowed three times.

This time, the sky has gradually darkened, and the pedestrians on the road are becoming more and more hurried, and most of the people who were still standing in front of the door to watch the excitement have dispersed. The sky was overcast, and suddenly, lightning and thunder roared, and just as the copper-ringed red-lacquered door slowly closed, it began to pour rain outside.

Su Shi was relieved to see that he had coaxed his son, and then turned around with difficulty to find his daughter.

"Yue'er, let's go, don't be afraid, my mother has always carried some jewelry with her. Sold and able to exchange for some money. The raindrops slapped mercilessly on the two of them, dissolving the bright red blood droplets on their bodies, leaving a pool of blood on the ground when they crawled away.

Soon, the blood stain was washed away by the rain, as if it had never existed.

~~~

Lin Wan has been living in her mother's yard for the past few days, working with her mother during the day, and her mother embroidering a dowry for her, she is happy to be more leisurely. The yard also smelled strong and unpleasant, and the little girls were running around, which was very lively.

Although they are busy, the girls also love to help do these things, because they know that as long as they serve this delicate little master well, the wife will have to give some reward.

Lin Wan also sent the little maid to go out every day to inquire, and as she expected, it was said that by now, not only have many villages outside the city died, but at present, there are people in the □□ who have been infected one after another, and several have died. He also said that many refugees from other places had gathered outside the city and wanted to enter the city, but they were stopped by the soldiers guarding the gate. Some of them broke through and were directly beaten to death with sticks, and on the hillside on the outskirts of Beijing, I don't know how many corpses have piled up now.

This natural disaster has caused panic in the hearts of the people, and now every house in the city is closed, and it is easy not to dare to go out.

In the evening, Xue Ying saw that her daughter was still squatting in the small house between her ears to decoct the medicine, and then let people pour it out, she shook her head gently, stepped forward a few steps, took out the handkerchief in her sleeve to wipe her daughter's face, and said gently: "Wanwan, you can rest quickly, you look at your weight loss these days, my mother is distressed when she looks at it." ”

Lin Wan's little hand was still shaking the fan and fanning the fire, and when he heard the words, he turned around and smiled at his mother, and then continued to do things.

"Mother, don't worry, my daughter's body is good and she will always be healthy. It's just a little thing, and it doesn't tire me. She was so hot that the skirt she wore on her body was soaked with sweat, her face was covered with sweat, and the hair scattered on both sides was soaked with sweat, and then stuck to her cheeks, her face was also red, but she didn't dislike it at all, she just concentrated on her work.

Xue Ying simply sat next to her daughter, and while ordering someone to bring the beauty fan, she had already sat down, took the fan and gently fanned her daughter.

"Wanwan, you have become a little unknown to your mother now, it seems that a few months ago, you were a little girl who could only cry your nose, how come in the blink of an eye, you have become a capable girl who is willing to do any dirty work and tiring work?" she raised her hand and stroked her daughter's sweaty hair to the root behind her ear, "Seeing you so happy, my mother is also happy, my mother hopes that you can live happily all the time so quickly." ”

Lin Wan got up and bent down, took a coarse cloth handkerchief, and unscrewed the lid of the earthen jar with his hands. Seeing that the heat was almost over, her eyes suddenly lit up, and then she motioned to a girl to put the decoction into a white porcelain bottle two fingers thick. When the matter was over, he turned around and said to his mother with a smile: "My daughter is very happy now, at least I don't have to live forever under the umbrella that my mother held up for me, I don't want to rely on others forever and become a burden to others." ”

Xue Ying instructed: "Hurry up and get the bath water, and wait for the girl to bathe and change clothes." ”

After taking a shower and changing into clean clothes, Lin Wan walked out with wet hair.

Stretching out his hand to wrap his arms around his mother's neck, Lin Wan's palm-sized little face leaned in front of his mother, and said coquettishly: "Mother, I want to go back to my room to sleep today, and I have to read some books at night, I don't want to disturb my mother." Mother, my daughter will come to accompany you tomorrow, and I can learn embroidery with you when the time comes. ”

Xue Ying laughed at the girl's trouble, stretched out her hand and nodded her head and said, "Your dowry, you have to embroider at least one or two pieces yourself, at least the gift to your mother-in-law and sister-in-law must be embroidered yourself." Speaking of this, it is inevitable to talk again, "In the in-law's house is not as comfortable as in your own home, if the elders give you a look, don't talk back to others, this is a long way, if you are bullied, my mother really wants to help you can't help you." ”

Seeing that her mother seemed to be about to cry again, Lin Wan immediately coaxed: "Mother, don't worry, your daughter won't let you worry." I won't read when I go back tonight, so I'll do embroidery work, and I'll show you Ming'er. If the mother thinks that it is not enough, the daughter will do it again until the mother is satisfied. ”

"Stinky girl, you know how to coax your mother. Xue Ying smiled, also withdrew her tears, and then instructed the painting hall Shaoguang Dao, "Serve the girl well, be thoughtful, don't let the girl stay up for too long, otherwise, I will ask you tomorrow." ”

The painting hall responded to Shaoguang, and then followed behind Lin Wan left and right, and walked out.

After returning to her own yard, Lin Wan immediately ran to the inner room, and when she saw a few more flowers on the shelf bed for no reason, she immediately smiled with crooked eyebrows.

The painting hall followed in to spread the quilt, and at a glance she saw a few flowers on the futon, and she frowned curiously.

"How many flowers have fallen here, it must be a little girl who does not have long eyes to break into the girl's room, and when the slave maid investigates it carefully, and finds out who it is, she must be severely reprimanded. After that, he picked up the flowers and handed them to Lin Wan, "This is a white magnolia, but it is fragrant." ”

"Since it's fragrant, let's stay, and there's no need to punish that girl anymore. After Lin Wan finished speaking, he held the magnolia in the palm of his hand, then took off his shoes and lay down on the futon, and said to the painting hall, "You go outside and wait, I will rest for a while, if there is anything, I will call you." ”

The painting hall went out, and Lin Wan lay alone on the bed for a while, then his eyes lit up, and he stood up with a rub.

I rummaged through the cabinets, as if anxiously looking for something, and in a short time I found a needle and thread.

I took the needle and thread, found a few pieces of fine fabric, piled aside the books on the table in front of the window, spread the silk fabric on the table, and began to cut it thinking about his size in the previous life.

At night, the night breeze was as cool as water, and when Zhao Yong walked in lightly, he saw her shrunk to the side.

Wearing a rose-red skirt, perhaps because of the heat, the buttons on the neckline were unbuttoned, vaguely revealing the delicate skin like pear blossoms inside. The long hair reached waist-length, the ends of the hair were curled up by the wind, and the red dress, which was as thin as a cicada's wings, was gently blown by the wind. Zhao Yong stood by the door, looking at this scene, slightly stunned.

This scene is so familiar, a thought flashed through his mind, he only felt that the two were husband and wife in their last life.

Quietly peeping for a while, then I remembered to walk towards her, and when I got closer, I realized that she was busy cutting clothes.

"For whom?" he said softly, with a cold voice and a slightly raised tone, very gentle and warm.

Lin Wan was fascinated by her work, cutting clothes in her hands, but she was thinking about the sweet life she had with Zhao Yong after marriage in her last life, and when she heard the familiar voice at first glance, she forgot about this scene.

"You're back?" she turned to look at him, affectionate
