Chapter 15: Jealousy
Lin Chonghan was asked by him, and after a circle in his mind, he replied: "I didn't go, what's wrong?" ”
Lin Shijing raised the rattle: "The drum skin of this drum originates from an endemic animal in the Western Regions. The sound of the drum made from this animal skin is pleasant and deep...... It's this drum, it's a little old. ”
Lin Chonghan's attention was attracted by the word "Western Regions" in his words, and she was stunned on the spot-
Yu Qing is a fisherman's daughter in the south of the Yangtze River, how could her parents use such a skin to make a rattle for her?
Lin Chonghan asked, "Won't it go wrong?" ”
Her expression was serious and nervous, and Lin Shijing carefully rubbed and checked the rattle before reassuring her.
"Yes, it's the drums of the Western Regions."
Haruhi also met Lin Chonghan's eyes in surprise, and with just one glance, the tacit understanding between the master and servant for many years made her understand what she should do.
"Slave maid go and let people check it out."
Lin Shijing didn't ask her what she wanted to check or why, she just asked Spring to go to the front yard to find the old housekeeper Qiao Bo, Yongdinghou's strength was far greater than her strength.

Candles were passed in the Han Palace at dusk, and light smoke dispersed into the house of the five marquis.
Every Chinese New Year, there will always be rewards in the palace, and the Lin family is very rich in silver and imperial dishes. Lin Guangqing opened the ancestral hall, put the silver and imperial dishes in front of the tablets of the ancestors, worshiped the ancestors one by one, and wiped the tablets himself, which was the end.
In previous years, Lin Yizhou was stationed abroad, but he never came back, and there were only two people in his family, Lin Guangqing and Lin Shijing. When two big men celebrate a holiday, there is always a faint hint of some boring and perfunctory.
This year, Lin Chonghan returned home, and the days seemed to have become hopeful, and even Lin Guangqing began to find fault that the lanterns hanging at the main gate were not good enough, let alone Lin Shijing.
His mouth was poisonous and poisonous, just in the three days of 28th, 29th and Chinese New Year's Eve, Lin Shijing simply tortured the subordinates in the mansion to death, and even the little maid who liked his merry appearance the most no longer came to him, as if he was not Gongzi's brother, but the reincarnation of King Yan.
Lin Chonghan looked at the appearance of the maids in the house who were eager to kill themselves in the world, funny and helpless, so he simply scattered more silver, which was considered the compassion of the master's family.
The owner was benevolent, and the maids in the courtyard knelt on the ground and praised Lin Chonghan.
At this time, a small house came running in the front yard, and he saw the people inside kneeling, thinking that Lin Chonghan was angry, so he didn't dare to be timid and didn't dare to go in.
Haruhi has sharp eyes, sees him, walks over and asks what is the matter.
"There's a fat man outside, and he says he's An Ninghou's servant," the little guy hung his head, and his voice was sneering, "He said, An Ninghou wants to see our girl." ”
"You wait here."
Lin Chonghan was handing out the silver moon example, and after hearing this, he asked Chunri to ask Gu Qingzhang what was the matter. After a while, the little guy came back to report that it was related to what she was investigating recently.

"Gu Qingzhang!"
Lin Chonghan hurriedly got into the carriage and came all the way to Gu Qingzhang's teahouse, only to find that this person was putting the tea leaves into the tea lotus to watch carefully, and she was so angry that she called him by his full name.
She had never told anyone about Yu Qing, and the person who moved was also directly from the Hou Mansion, and the only possibility that Gu Qingzhang knew about it was that she went to Yanyu Building that day, and Gu Qingzhang knew about it, and he went down to check it.
"Gu Qingzhang," her face was serious, "you're sending someone to follow me." ”
Gu Qingzhang was not annoyed or quibbled by her, and waited for Lin Chonghan to sit down cross-legged on the futon before handing her the tea lotus.
"This year's Wuyi rock tea, how about you look at the condition?"
Lin Chonghan knew that it was useless to be anxious, but he didn't look at the tea lotus carefully: "I usually drink Wuyi rock tea in the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it is November at the latest." It's the New Year now, and all the shops sell is old tea. ”
"Wuyi people disdain to drink old tea," Gu Qingzhang pointed to meaningfully, "but I don't care what is the best time, I only love this old tea." ”
She came to question him about stalking, but Gu Qingzhang was Xiang Zhuang dancing the sword and intended to be Pei Gong, Lin Chonghan didn't know how to reply to this, so he pushed the tea lotus back.
She said, "It's not a good idea for you to come and wade through the troubled waters. ”
Gu Qingzhang gently dialed the tea leaves on the tea lotus to the purple clay pot, shook his head and refused: "I am still the Gu family and Gu Zhao's brother, this matter is not too much." ”
…… It's quite high-sounding.
"Tell me, what news do you have for me?"
"Oh, it's not a big deal," Gu Qingzhang finished washing the tea leaves and poured the tea soup into a fair cup, "It's that Yu Qing may not be Yu Qing." ”
?
Lin Chonghan's mind walked around in his mind, and he came back to his senses and understood what he meant.
She said, "You mean, Yu Qing is an impostor, she may not be called Yu Qing, and she may not even ......" Lin Chonghan remembered the rattle, "...... Even she may not be from Jiangnan Water Town. ”
Gu Qingzhang glanced at her appreciatively, indicating that she was right.
The teahouse covers a very large area, and each courtyard inside is set up separately, and the distance between the courtyards is far apart, so at this moment the world is silent, and only the occasional bird cry can be heard.
After Lin Chonghan figured this out, he covered his forehead with a headache.
"This ......" the first thing she thought of was Gu Zhao, "If Gu Zhao knew about this, I'm afraid it would be a lot of irritation." ”
She really hates Gu Zhao very much, but Lin Qingzhang is his brother-in-law after all, and some things are not so simple.
Gu Qingzhang's face changed slightly, and he quickly pretended to be nothing, he handed her the brewed tea, and pretended to be generous: "Gu Zhao is not young, and it is not a big problem to be stimulated, he can't hide behind his father for the rest of his life." ”
Is it?
Lin Chonghan looked at him suspiciously, always feeling that Gu Qingzhang might not be so kind.
Gu Qingzhang is indeed not so kind, every time he thinks that Lin Chonghan once had a period of lingering compassion with Gu Zhao, he feels like there is a nameless fire burning in his heart, and this fire will never be extinguished in his heart.
Does jealousy have to be next to women, exclusive to women?
He thought coldly, not necessarily.
At this time, he was trying his best to get some manpower, so that Gu Zhao could "accidentally" hear that Yu Qing was replaced by Gu Er, who was replaced by others, and thought sadly: jealousy is indeed not exclusive to women, it should be exclusive to him Gu Hou Ye and Gu Qingzhang.
Lin Chonghan took the teacup, subconsciously looked at the color of the tea, smelled the fragrance of the tea, and then got up and put the teacup back in front of him with a disgusted face.
"What kind of aged tea, I don't eat this tea."
Gu Qingzhang sipped the tea slowly, so as to reduce the jealousy in his abdomen.
He said, "It's okay, I love to eat anyway." ”
