Chapter 64: Asking for help
The words had already been spoken, and Lin asked his subordinates to close the door, turned his head and led people to Yixiang Garden.
At this time, Yi Shan was reading "Meteorological Chronicles" in the garden, although she was not a person who loved to read, but she had a good impression of her second sister-in-law before, so she was also quite interested in the books given by this second sister-in-law.
It was early afternoon, and the midsummer had already begun to sprout, but it was still cool under the shade of the trees, and Yishan was lying on a chaise longue under the locust tree, with a stone table next to the chair and a fruit bowl on the table. Yishan also ordered the maid to make a cup of chrysanthemum tea to clear the heat and reduce the fire.
When the maid came to report, Yi Shan was looking at it energetically, and she had no intention of getting up to greet her mother. But after all, she was an elder and her biological mother, and out of respect, she still got up and ordered her personal maid to go.
When the wife came, she saw a casually dressed and lazy girl standing in front of her, and a few maids standing behind her. Seeing his wife approaching, he bowed slightly to himself, and said to ask his wife. And this girl is her own daughter.
Seeing Yishan's dress, Mrs. became more and more worried, but she still had to say what she had to say.
Yi Shan saw that his wife was just staring at herself, and she didn't know what to do.
Finally, the wife spoke, but it was surprising: "Yishan, you are not small, it's time to think about your life's events." ”
Yi Shan thought that her mother must have encountered something difficult, but she didn't expect that this matter was related to herself, and it was also a major event in her marriage, so she didn't know how to respond for a while.
However, her heart told Yi Shan that she didn't want to think about it now, and she didn't want to be arranged by her parents.
"I'm young, I don't want to think about it." Thinking in her heart, Yi Shan also said it.
"You're not small, and sooner or later you're going to have to think about it." Lin knew his daughter's temperament very well, and he still persuaded him bitterly.
"No, I don't want to think about it right now." Because she is a concubine, Yishan has been loved by her parents since she was a child, and with her pure temperament, she has also received a lot of care from her second brother, Qi Feng.
"Son, my mother doesn't want to force you, but you also know that according to the laws of my dynasty, a woman will marry at fifteen. Now you're fifteen...... A few days ago, someone came to urge. My mother has already told the man that you have already made a marriage and will marry on the Yuan Festival, so this time, for the sake of our family, this matter is not negotiable. Seeing that the soft words did not make sense, the wife threw out an ultimatum.
Yi Shan didn't know what to do for a while after hearing this, so she was stunned in place, and her wife finally couldn't bear it when she saw Yi Shan like this. But as she said, there is no room for manoeuvre.
After Yi Shan reacted, she understood that she couldn't ask her wife for help in this matter, so she ignored her mother, who was still standing in front of her, and turned around and went back to the room. Mrs. looked at the back of Yishan leaving, sighed, and left Yixiang Garden with people.
When Yi Shan returned to her room, her strained emotions finally exploded, and she grabbed the teacup on the table and threw it out. The teacup slammed into the door in an arc, shattering into several pieces as it collided with the door. The maids outside the house did not dare to step forward when they heard the movement.
They knew that their master had always had a bad temper because of his noble and favored status, but it was the first time that he had such a big anger.
When everyone was at a loss, Pothos walked to the door, opened the door and walked in. Pothos is one of Yishan's personal maids, and she is also the closest to Yishan.
Pothos is also Yishan's most loyal maid, and they grew up together. Yishan first met Pothos in the winter when she was 8 years old, when she went out with her father and came back to see Pothos sitting in front of her house.
It was snowing heavily, and the pothos was shivering from the cold. At that time, Yi Shan looked at the pothos, and it happened that the pothos also looked at Yi Shan, the two looked at each other for a while, the eyes of the pothos were clear and clear, in the eyes of the pothos, Yi Shan saw the yearning for the beauty of the world for the pothos, and she begged her father to keep the pothos.
Since then, the pothos has been accompanying Yishan, they read and studied together, and played together. Every time Yishan encounters something unhappy, the pothos can always comfort Yishan well.
Just like at this time, when everyone didn't dare to move forward, the green pothos walked towards Yishan. Yi Shan saw the pothos, and the hand that had just picked up another teacup paused, but still did not put it down.
Pothos approached Yishan, took the teacup in her hand, and helped Yishan to sit down.
"Miss dissipate your anger, don't hurt herself, the first task now is to find a way to make Mrs. change her attention, but you can't waste time on needless anger."
After listening to the words of the green pothos, Yishan sobered up. Luluo is right, she needs to solve the current problem now, and it is absolutely impossible for her to find a random marriage.
But Yi Shan also knew that there was no way to solve this problem on her own, and she needed to find someone to help.
But who to ask for help? It is impossible for a father, in the father's heart, the interests of the family are greater than everything, and now that even his own biological mother is not on his side, how can he expect his father to help him.
Second brother? Although the second brother usually loves himself very much, he must not refuse to ask him for help, but let his brother help this kind of help, how can he help? He can't ask his father or his mother, and it is estimated that he will have more than enough heart but not enough strength at that time.
Thinking of this, Yi Shan felt helpless and aggrieved. Since she was a child, she has basically been smooth, but in this matter, she has experienced unprecedented frustration.
Green pothos looked at her young lady's face, and after hearing her words, she changed from sunny to cloudy, and knew that young lady had not thought of a way.
"Miss, there will be a way. As....... Looking for your second sister-in-law? It can be seen from what happened last time that Mrs. Yan is a capable person, maybe she will have a way. "The last time I went to my wife's place, the pothos was also there, and like Yishan, the pothos also had a good impression of Yan Jinzhou, and felt that Yan Jinzhou was very powerful, not an ordinary person.
That's right, Yan Jinzhou! Yi Shan's eyes lit up, and she almost forgot about her second sister-in-law. Yi Shan suddenly felt that things had taken a turn for the better.
said that action is action, Yi Shan hurriedly called the maid outside to dress herself, and ordered the maid to prepare chrysanthemum cake and osmanthus cake, planning to take it to the second sister-in-law.
After a cup of tea, the well-dressed Yishan ordered the green pothos to take the pastry box and head towards Ning Cui Garden.
"Second sister-in-law, save me! Now it's just you who can help me. As soon as she stepped into Ning Cui Garden and looked at Yan Jinzhou, Yi Shan rushed towards her, shouting in her mouth, as if she had really encountered something life-threatening.
When Yan Jinzhou heard Yishan's words, he didn't know what was going on, so he had to ask the maid to prepare tea and let her sit down and drink tea and talk slowly.
Yi Shan didn't care about drinking tea, and when she sat down, she told Yan Jinzhou exactly what her mother said to her, and added at the end, "Second sister-in-law, I really can't help it now, I don't want to get married, only you can help me now." ”
