Chapter 5 The Lin Lineage
Just as the Demon Zang Feng was building a foundation to kill immortals, Lin Yuechan and Bai Bo had just taken leave and walked towards a shop in the Lin clan. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The entire Lin clan was amazing, just walking out of the courtyard where the servants lived, Lin Yuechan spent a whole quarter of an hour, until when she saw the towering shop building, she was already out of breath and covered with sweat.
It's finally here.
Seeing the many servants and swordsmen coming and going in the huge shop, Lin Yuechan casually brushed the sideburns that were blown by the wind, and did not rest, and hurriedly walked towards the pharmacy deep on the first floor.
She is now thinking about Demon Zangfeng, and she just wants to finish buying the medicine and go back early.
However, it backfired.
"Obviously, two doses of medicine the day before yesterday are only half a tael of broken silver, why does one serving cost five taels today", looking at the maid behind the counter who was carelessly grabbing the medicine, Lin Yuechan said with a red face.
Her voice is very mellow and good, and the position of the pharmacy is in the center, which immediately attracted the attention of many people.
The goddess was impatient, waved her hand at Lin Yuechan and said: "Yesterday was yesterday's price, today is today, silver thread grass is only in stock in our shop, do you like it." ”
"But I just saw that someone else only pays..."
Without waiting for Lin Yuechan to finish speaking, the maid sneered, she stopped what she was doing, clasped her hands to her chest, stared at Lin Yuechan and sneered: "Are you really stupid or pretending to be stupid."
Looking up and down at Lin Yuechan, who was clothed in coarse cloth, the maid snorted lightly, her chin was slightly raised, and she said condescendingly: "I don't look at your identity conditions, I really think that if you have a little posture, you dare to offend the sword guard, it's really bold." ”
As soon as she heard that it was Lin Xiao, Lin Yuechan suddenly clenched her palms.
Although she knew that Lin Xiao would not let herself go so easily, she didn't expect it to come so quickly.
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Yuechan was a little reluctant to take out the silver hairpin from her arms.
Wiped the dust that didn't exist on it, thinking that Xiao Feng was still waiting for her at home, she gritted her teeth, handed it over and said, "I pawned this silver hairpin for twenty taels of silver, you help me grab a day's worth of medicine first." ”
It's not that Lin Yuechan is reluctant, but that silver hairpin means a lot to her.
It was discovered by Uncle Lin when he picked her up, and Lin Yuechan even fantasized that one day she could find her parents with the help of silver hairpins.
It's just that for Xiao Feng, she can't take care of these anymore.
"Hey, just your broken hairpin, do you still want twenty taels of silver? Are you crazy about money", the maid at the counter looked at Lin Yuechan with a sneer.
"I've been to a pawn shop, and this silver hairpin is worth twenty-five taels of silver in terms of value," Lin Yuechan said in a hurry.
"You think this is a pawnshop, who will accept your broken hairpin? Don't say twenty-five taels, even five taels are not uncommon for me", the maid glanced at the silver hairpin, her expression moved slightly, but her mouth was ruthless.
"You, you can help me change a pair of medicines, I don't want more, just a pair of medicines", Lin Yuechan was anxious and angry for a while, and the chrome of her palm, which was pinching the broken silver, turned white.
It's not that she doesn't want to go to the pharmacy outside the Lin clan, but she doesn't know how many hours it will take to go back and forth, and Xiao Feng's seriously injured body can't afford to wait for another second!
The maid sneered, pulled the silver hairpin in Lin Yuechan's hand, she weighed it quietly, and a trace of imperceptible secret joy flashed in her eyes.
She didn't expect the inconspicuous-looking silver hairpin to be so heavy, not to mention twenty-five taels, thirty taels is possible, which is almost worth three months of her silver.
"Three taels of silver, don't have more, I'll take it back as a deadbolt", the maid handed back the silver hairpin and said reluctantly.
Lin Yuechan pinched the two taels of silver in her hand, she hesitated for a long time, and finally nodded.
After taking the three taels of silver handed by the maid, Lin Yuechan handed over the two taels of broken silver in her hand, and said softly: "Grab a pair of medicines for me." ”
Who knows, the maid didn't even look at the hand handed over by Lin Yuechan, she played with the silver hairpin in her hand, and looked embarrassed: "Oh, I seem to have remembered it wrong, the silver thread grass in the medicine, there is no one here." ”
Lin Yuechan's face turned pale, biting her lip stubbornly, and her chest rose and fell violently.
Seeing this scene, many people frowned slightly, and the maid's actions made them a little disgusted.
"Look at what I'm doing, this silver hairpin is mine now, I won't return it, I can take it back if I want, I will consider thirty taels of silver", shook the silver hairpin in her hand, and the maid raised her chin, very proud.
She is enjoying Lin Yuechan's current expression, and she is also looking forward to Lin Yuechan's next move, whether she is crying, scolding, or making a fuss!
As a maid at the bottom of the Lin clan, she grovels every day, and she has to smile when she is slapped by others, and today she was released from Lin Yuechan, only to feel that her heart was smooth, and she even couldn't stop it.
"How do you want to help me grab the medicine", looking at the smiling maid, Lin Yuechan let go of her lips, although her face was pale, it was unusually calm.
This scene was somewhat unexpected by the maid, or she simply did not expect it.
In her heart, Lin Yuechan should cry and make a fuss next to attract the attention of others, or swallow the bitter fruit in her mouth and leave gloomily.
And looking at Lin Yuechan, who was obviously begging for herself, the maid was not only not happy at all, but on the contrary, the huge sense of disparity made her feel a little inferior.
This feeling is like facing those young masters and young ladies who are high up and have never looked at them squarely.
She finally understood a little why Lin Xiao, a swordsman with a lot of talent, cared so much about an ordinary woman, an ordinary woman who was just born a little better.
This made her very unhappy, even a little uncomfortable.
Therefore, she didn't want Lin Yuechan to feel better.
The maid smiled slightly: "Look at what you said, I didn't make it difficult for you, but since you said so, learn to bark and admit that you are a female dog." ”
Her voice was not loud, and she did not deliberately suppress it, but the cold meaning in it suddenly froze the originally noisy hall.
Looking at the silent Lin Yuechan, the smile on the maid's face gradually spread, and even an unhealthy flush.
She stretched out two fingers and shook them, "Two days' serving, as long as you call it, I'll give you two days' serving." ”
In the empty and quiet hall, the voice of the maid was clear and harsh.
In the ears of the crowd, her tone seemed not to be discussing with a person, but more like teasing a puppy.
Most of them frowned slightly, looked at the maid, and were very disgusted.
But there was only disgust, and if they wanted them to come forward and say a word for Lin Yuechan, it was absolutely impossible.
The hall only sells some common items, so most of the people are retinues who run errands for their masters, and the higher ones are just some guards and swordsmen who have cultivated mediocre, and they don't want to get themselves into trouble because of their recklessness.
And when they saw Lin Yuechan's outstanding appearance, they were even more curious about how Lin Yuechan would choose.
For a while, the entire hall fell into a dead silence, leaving only a heavy breath, constantly reminding Lin Yuechan to make a decision.
Under the pressure and shame of being speechless, Lin Yuechan's expression turned pale, and her slender fingers pierced deeply into the palms of her hands, bringing out a little bit of red.
If there was any word to describe how she felt at the moment, it was helplessness, despair!
It's just that for Xiao Feng, she has to endure everything!
Seeing that Lin Yuechan's lips were slightly open, and the smile on the maid's face was waiting to be released, as long as Lin Yuechan opened her mouth, she would not want to raise her head to be a person in her life, and it would be impossible for her to get any fame from the Xiao Jian Waiter, even if she didn't open her mouth, she not only earned a silver hairpin for nothing, but also completed the instructions of the Xiao Jian Waiter.
She will not lose anything, she will only look at Lin Yuechan with indifferent eyes, just like those young ladies of the lineage look at her.
"What's the matter?"
At the moment when the atmosphere entered its peak, a clear voice suddenly broke the silence on the first floor and interrupted the maid's delusions.
The crowd looked at the stairs in unison.
On the stairs, surrounded by many side disciples, a young man dressed in a golden silk robe and a green jade sword at his waist slowly went downstairs and walked towards the pharmacy where the maid was.
"It's Yu Shao, Young Master Lin Chengyu", in the crowd, the one closest to him, immediately recognized the young man who was surrounded by everyone, and shouted.
Lin Chengyu, hearing this name, some of the retinue and guards in the back all brought a look of awe or admiration.
The Lin clan is full of masters, and there are many bloodlines, but what can be clearly remembered by everyone is very limited, and Lin Chengyu is just one of them.
The four-rank sword vein, only the peak of the second stage of the sixteenth swordsman, had been in the clan competition of the previous year, relying on the strength of the ninth stage of the swordsman, and defeated the opponent of the new swordsman.
No matter which deed there is, it is enough to amaze people, and all of them add up, and it makes Lin Chengyu faintly crowned the name of the leader of the Lin family!
You must know that with the age of sixteen weak crowns, it has not been a long time for the Lin clan to obtain such a title in the talented and skilled clan, and it also indicates that his future height is destined to be extraordinary.
"Everyone, be still," the previously clear voice sounded again.
This voice seemed to have a strange attraction, it was a noisy hall, and a pin drop could be heard in an instant, and even the uneven breathing was subconsciously slowed down.
The messy crowd quietly moved out of the way, and Lin Chengyu broke away from the crowd and walked slowly in the direction of Lin Yuechan.
The maid was still angry because she was interrupted, and suddenly remembered that the voice came from the second floor.
Looking at the crowd again, she suddenly found that the person walking towards her was Young Master Lin Chengyu, who could only watch from a distance on weekdays and had an extremely noble identity.
The anger on her face instantly turned into surprise, and the maid pushed Lin Yuechan away, stepped on the broken silver spilled from her hand, and trotted over with a coquettish smile.
"What's going on", stopped, Lin Chengyu looked at the maid who walked to his side and smiled.
Seeing Lin Chengyu talking to herself, Junyi still had a smile on her face, and the maid's heartbeat accelerated, only to feel flattered.
"No, no, it's not a big deal, it's just that a maid doesn't have enough money to buy medicine", the maid waved her hand and blocked Lin Yuechan, who was bending down to pick up broken silver behind her.
"Young master, do you want to go to the back room to sit, the pharmacy has recently added some high-quality medicinal tea, which is very nourishing to the body, and the little maid will make it for you", anyway, the maid was still slim, and leaned towards Lin Chengyu intentionally or unintentionally.
Her statement is actually very problematic, the title of the little maid can only be used by Lin Chengyu's personal maid.
However, Lin Chengyu didn't accuse, just chuckled and shook his head.
Seeing this, the maid was a little disappointed, and then she racked her brains, thinking if there was a way to keep the young man in front of her.
Just when the maid was stunned, Lin Chengyu had already taken a step forward and slowly came to Lin Yuechan's side.
Under the surprised looks of the crowd, he actually bent down and helped Lin Yuechan pick up the broken silver on the ground.
"Yours", with a gentle smile as always, Lin Chengyu handed over the silver in his hand and looked at Lin Yuechan.
For the famous Lin Chengyu, except for the new servants, there are few people in the Lin clan who don't know, and Lin Yuechan naturally recognizes it.
So looking at the scene in front of her, she was also slightly shocked in her heart.
"Thank you Yu Shao", but surprised to be surprised, Lin Yuechan had no extra thoughts, and politely bent over to thank her, she gently grabbed the broken silver in Lin Chengyu's hand, and never even touched her skin.
As everyone knows, her approach made Lin Chengyu's eyes more vigorous.
The maid on the side had already come back to her senses, and when she saw that Lin Chengyu actually bent over to help Lin Yuechan pick up the broken silver, a fire of jealousy suddenly rose from the bottom of her heart.
One step forward, she pushed Lin Yuechan and said, "What are you still doing here, the young master is kind-hearted to help you pick up the silver, don't think about it, don't leave quickly..."
"Not enough money to buy medicine", ignoring the maid, Lin Chengyu looked at Lin Yuechan and said.
Lin Yuechan was slightly stunned, glanced at the maid who was frozen in place, looking embarrassed, she nodded lightly and didn't say anything.
"Go grab a pair of medicine and put it on my account", Lin Chengyu finally turned to the maid and said.
"Ah, yes", the maid put away her embarrassed look and glanced at Lin Yuechan fiercely, she unwillingly wrapped a pair of medicines from the counter and came to Lin Chengyu's side.
However, no one noticed that when the maid was packing the medicine, she quietly put in a dark red dried fruit.
"The little maid has wrapped it for you", handed over the medicine in her hand, and the maid pretended to inadvertently tease Lin Chengyu's palm, as if teasing.
With an unchanged expression, he handed the medicine to Lin Yuechan, but Lin Chengyu didn't ask much.
"Thank you Yushao, I will pay back the silver", Lin Yuechan bowed again, then carried the medicinal herbs, and left the hall quickly under the envious looks of the crowd.
Seeing Lin Yuechan walk out of the hall, Lin Chengyu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he had already seen clearly everything that happened just now on the second floor.
From the scenes just now, Lin Yuechan's invisible, incomprehensible temperament is not at all like what a maid can have.
Moreover, Lin Yuechan is beautiful and good-looking, and in his opinion, there is still a lot of room for growth, which aroused his interest.
"You see, the maid was really lucky, and she was able to let Yu Shao put down her body and help pick up the silver. ”
"What do you know, that's Yu Shao's kindness, selflessness, change to another lineage, let alone help a maid, I'm afraid I won't even look at it. ”
"That's right, I thought that those young masters were arrogant and noble, but I didn't expect Young Master Lin Chengyu to be so easy-going and amiable. ”
"Of course, I think that Yu Shao will definitely be the best candidate to inherit the patriarch of the Lin clan in the future. ”
"I think so too. ”
Listening to the praise from time to time in the hall, Lin Chengyu's smile grew.
casually beckoned an attendant and glanced at Lin Yuechan who disappeared in the distance, Lin Chengyu said in a low voice: "Find out everything about her." ”
The squire understood, nodded, and walked out of the door quickly.
"Young master, come to the back room, the little maid has good things to show the young master", seeing that Lin Chengyu was leaving, the maid hurriedly spoke, pretending to be coquettish.
However, Lin Chengyu didn't seem to hear the maid's voice, and walked into the original group without looking back, and walked out of the door with a smile.
From beginning to end, he didn't look at the maid again, as if he had completely forgotten her existence.
"Good things, what are good things, brother, I like to see good things the most...", Lin Chengyu just left, and a bald man with a big sword on his back in the hall suddenly made a yin and yang weird sound, which immediately caused everyone to laugh.
Hearing this, the maid's face was flushed, and she was unwilling to hold the silver hairpin, and a thick resentment flashed in her eyes.
But thinking about the dark red dried fruit that she had just put into the herbs, she lowered her head, and the corners of her mouth were slightly hooked.
Hmph, little slut, don't think you're done with the medicine!
The fruit was given to her by Lin Xiao, and the fruit she knew was called the Tranquility Fruit.
Although taking it alone can calm the nerves and reduce pain, once it is mixed with that pair of healing pills, it is not just as simple as calming the nerves...
