148 Unpredictable [Second Update]
Shi Tuo went back to the General's Mansion with Mrs. Lin, since Lin Wanniang passed away, Mrs. Lin has not met Mrs. Shi for more than ten years, and now that the two meet, the atmosphere is inevitably embarrassing.
Old lady Lin came to the door, naturally for the matter of dividing the house, and the maternal uncle was an indispensable supporter, in addition to the maternal uncle, he also had to invite a few relatives of the Shi family, and when Shi Tuo decided to divide the mansion, he had already made people hurry up and rush back to Pujing City without getting off the saddle to ask the patriarch and a few others to go to Jingzhao.
"Uncle." The old lady bowed his hand to the old lady Lin, and the greeting smile on his lips was a little embarrassing.
Old Lady Lin snorted, shook her sleeves and sat down on the side.
The old lady was a little difficult to get off the stage, he returned to his seat and spoke. "Uncle, after many years of absence, don't come unharmed."
"TOEFL, the old man is not here to catch up with you today, we don't have anything old to talk about, since we want to divide the house, we also have to choose a time, the patriarch of the Shi family will not arrive in Jingzhao until three days at the earliest, and five days later is an auspicious day, so it will be set at that time to divide the family book," Old Lady Lin glanced around the study, except for Shi Tuo and Shuangzhi He had seen it, and he didn't know who the others were, "I don't know how Old Lady Shi wants to distribute the family property?" ”
For Mrs. Lin not giving Mrs. Shi face like this, Shuangzhi and Shi Tuo were mentally prepared, so they could only pretend not to see it, but where did Shi Can and the others go to see someone who dared to treat their father like this, they were naturally not angry, but looking at Mrs. Lin's momentum, they didn't dare to say much.
"As a general, Tuo'er has a noble status, and Can'er is different, so I plan to leave some of the Shi family's Zhuangzi and shop to Can'er, and the old mansion in Pujing City to Tuo'er." The palms and backs of his palms are full of meat, what he thinks about is that his children and grandchildren will have a worry-free life in the future, Shi Tuo doesn't have to worry about him, Can'er has not yet opened his mind, although Zhao Shaofei is on the side, he is still worried that he will be deceived if he loses the protection of the General's Mansion in the future.
Old lady Lin sneered, "A concubine occupies the whole family property, but the son of a serious son only gets an old mansion, Shi Jian, you are really admirable as the head of the family." ”
Shi Tuo and Shuangzhi listened to the old lady's property distribution, but they just smiled faintly, and they didn't feel displeased, but Shi Can looked happy, and glanced at Shi Tuo defiantly.
"That'...... How does the uncle want to divide it? The old lady also knew that such a distribution was unreasonable, but he couldn't see that Can'er's life was urgent in the future, and he couldn't let his two daughters be helpless in the future.
"This is your Shi family's property, how you want to divide it, but if the Shi family clan agrees, it is not clear." Old lady Lin didn't care about his Shi family's property at all, but he felt that it was not worth it for his sister and nephew, but what if he divided the mansion, he didn't want his Shi family's property?
"If my uncle agrees to let Can'er come under Wanniang's name, then ......" Old Lady Shi tentatively spoke, but he still didn't give up the idea of wanting Shi Can to join the clan.
Old lady Lin slapped her palm on the arm of the chair, and shouted sternly, "Shi Jian, no matter how ungrateful you are, how cold and unkind, I only thought that Wan Niang knew people and didn't know how to marry the wrong people, I didn't expect you to be so shameless, a slave's son also thought about being under Wan Niang's name, how do you want to humiliate our Lin family?" ”
A look of guilt flashed in Old Lady Shi's eyes, and she didn't know how to speak.
Shi Yinzhu looked at Old Lady Lin with complicated eyes, sighed lightly, lowered his eyebrows and looked not as sharp as usual, and sat back in silence. "On the day of the division, I will come to preside, and after the Shi family's clan arrives, you will discuss with yourself how to write the letter of separation, so that people can say goodbye to me and leave." Without speculating for more than half a sentence, Mrs. Lin brushed his sleeves and left, leaving the stunned Mrs. Shi.
Shi Tuo and Shuangzhi got up to salute the old lady and hurriedly followed.
walked out of the study, but saw Mrs. Lin waiting for them outside the door.
Parsley held Shuangzhi, "Madam, take the steps carefully." ”
"Why do pregnant people go so fast? Be careful. Old Lady Lin glared at her in displeasure, very dissatisfied with the steps she had just hurried out.
Isn't this afraid that your maternal uncle will be angry? Shuangzhi sneered. "Shuangzhi obeys his uncle's teachings."
"Uncle......" Shi Tuo frowned, not wanting his uncle to vent his anger on Shuangzhi.
Old lady Lin snorted, then eased her face and asked Shuangzhi, "How well did the maid at home serve?" ”
Shuangzhi said with a smile, in fact, her uncle was caring about her, "Thank you uncle for your concern, the maids are serving wholeheartedly, and the daily meals are also checked by Mrs. Zheng, everything is fine." ”
Old Lady Lin nodded, "I heard that Jin Zhao came to Lingzun Lingtang, and now he can be in the mansion?" ”
I didn't think that Mrs. Lin would ask her father and mother, but Shuangzhi replied, "It should be in the house at this time." ”
"Let someone lead me over, and your father and I are also old acquaintances, and we haven't seen each other for many years, so it's just time to reminisce about the past." Old lady Lin said.
Shuangzhi was even more surprised, she hadn't heard her father say that she was an old acquaintance with the Lin Mansion, "I'll bring my uncle over." ”
"No need, you go back and rest, just let a girl lead the way." Old Lady Lin waved her hand, her tone a little impatient.
Shi Tuo smiled, "Shuangzhi, go back and rest, my uncle is concerned about you, let me lead my uncle to my father-in-law." ”
Shuangzhi had no choice but to nod and salute Old Lady Lin, "Uncle, then Shuangzhi will go back to the house first." ”
………………
Back in the house, Shuangzhi asked Rong Lan to see what Su Yinxue was doing in the house, and after a while, Rong Lan came and said, Su Yinxue just stayed in the house, didn't speak or move, didn't know what she was doing.
"It's great that the matter of the division is now decided, and the lady will be idle in the future." Rong Lan couldn't help but sigh.
"It's good to be able to be idle, who knows what those unruly people will do when the time comes." Xiangqin was not so optimistic, she brought red date soup to Shuangzhi, "Madam, it's not the presumptuousness of the slave, the old lady is also a little biased, the second master is a son, but our master is too, or a serious heir, why is this family so selfish." ”
Double Solstice Road. "The second master grew up with the old lady since he was a child, and his feelings are naturally more intimate than with the uncle, besides, the old lady also thinks that the uncle is a general, and he doesn't need to rely on his family, so he gives most of the family property to the second master."
In fact, she can understand the eccentric mentality of the old lady, in modern times, parents always prefer the children who follow them all the year round, and always hope to leave the best for the child who likes the most. And Shi Tuo and the old lady are not close to each other, plus the always does, sometimes the father and son are like strangers, if it weren't for the family rules, Shi Tuo probably didn't want anything from the Shi family.
"Having said that, isn't the old lady afraid that the elders in the clan will have different opinions? What's wrong with the uncle being a general. The ancestral property that should be divided still has to be shared, is it difficult to ask the master and the Shi family to cut it off? Rong Lan lowered her voice and expressed her dissatisfaction.
Shuangzhi glared at her, "You can't say this casually, and if someone hears it, they won't kill you." ”
Rong Lan said aggrievedly. "Madam, this is not a slave and maid who came up with this, many maids outside are also secretly discussing, as early as when everyone knew that the second master was a concubine, and the old lady still handed over the business to him, everyone secretly said it."
The concubine sighed slightly, indeed, if the division of the mansion really divides the family property according to the old lady this time, the Shi family will lose face, how can there be such a master who does not understand the rules and etiquette.
For Old Lady Shi. The concubine has always been respectful, but sometimes he really complains that he is too unfair to Shi Tuo.
"Okay, don't talk about this anymore, let the maids in the upper room not be allowed to talk about this, and they will slap their mouths when they hear it." The concubine rubbed his eyebrows, and now he had to wait for the patriarch and others to come before making plans.
"Yes, ma'am." Rong Lan and Parsley saluted.
The concubine closed her eyes and thought for a while, and suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Xiangqin, "Xiangqin, you have been with my mother for a few years, have you heard of the relationship between the Fu family and the Lin family?" ”
Xiangqin also looked puzzled, shook her head and said, "I haven't heard the old lady mention it." ”
"The foundation of the Lin family is in Jin Zhao, maybe the old man met the Lin family when he was in Jin Zhao." Yunlan Road.
Shuangzhi's eyes were slightly dark, and what she was most afraid of was that she was involved in the past.
In less than half an hour, Shi Tuo came back, and Shuangzhi greeted him, "Why did you come back, did your uncle go back?" ”
Shi Tuo sat on the couch with his arms around her waist, gently stroked her bulging lower abdomen with one hand, and said softly, "Go back, talk to your father-in-law for a while and leave." ”
Shuangzhi smiled, "I don't know if my uncle and the Fu family are still old acquaintances. ”
Shi Tuodao, "I only learned today, as early as when Fugong resigned and returned to his hometown, he had some dealings with the Lin family. ”
Shuangzhi paused for a moment, and sure enough, it was the same as she thought, I wonder if the Lin family has anything to do with the incident with King Yu?
"Did you ask something from Su Yinxue's mouth today?" Shi Tuo didn't feel the shuangzhi stunned, and asked in a low voice.
Shuangzhi came back to her senses and didn't think about those complicated pasts, "She refused to say who helped her send the letter...... "She told Shi Tuo about going to ask for Su Yinxue today, and she was still a little jealous of the person behind it.
Shi Tuo's eyes were cold, "In this way, it is the handwriting she imitated." ”
"The maid at home can't ask anything, I don't know who she has been in contact with, in short, this person can't stay in the house anymore." Double Solstice Road.
Shi Tuo nodded and gently hugged her, "In a few days, the house will be quiet." ”
The two talked for a while, and in a blink of an eye, it was nightfall, and after dinner, Shi Tuo was going to the study, so he told her to rest early and not wait for him.
Shuangzhi agreed, smiling and watching him go out.
When he arrived at the study, Shi Tuo sat behind the bookcase, silent, as if waiting for someone, and after a while, the door of the study sounded dullly.
"Come in!"
The one who came in the door was the Zheng Pozi.
"Master, you sent the old slave here, but what do you command?" Mrs. Zheng gave Shi Tuo a salute, and lowered her eyebrows.
Shi Tuo took a deep look at her and said in a deep voice, "Mrs. Zheng, you didn't show any feet in front of your lady, did you?" ”
Mrs. Zheng said, "Don't worry, the old slave will never let Mrs. see anything according to his orders." ”
"Well, protect Madame!" Shi Tuo glanced at her with satisfaction, and said coldly, "Destroy Su Yinxue's hand, don't let anyone notice." ”
Mrs. Zheng was slightly stunned, but she didn't dare to ask more, "Yes." ”
"Let's go down!" Shi Tuo said in a low voice, the cold coldness in his eyes hidden in the dim light.
Mrs. Zheng saluted, quietly withdrew back, and at the moment when she was about to cross the threshold, Shi Tuo's voice came again, "Mrs. Zheng, you have to remember, your current master is Mrs., not me, understand?" ”
"Yes, the old slave understands that the old slave will definitely protect Madame." Needless to say, Shi Tuo has already regarded Fushuang Zhi as her master who wants to serve her life.
After Mrs. Zheng left, Shi Tuo took the secret letter on the table.
It really needs to be divided as soon as possible. He had to make sure that Shuangzhi was safe at home so that he could leave Jin Zhao with peace of mind.
In the middle of the night, when everything was silent, the bright moonlight sprinkled on the earth like a veil, and a black shadow quietly entered a side room by the moonlight, and the mother-in-law who was napping outside the door did not notice it.
It was dark inside, only a faint moonlight filtered in through the window lattice, and I could barely see the outline of the furnishings.
The dark shadow that came through the door seemed to be in the daytime, and easily came to the bed.
On the bed was a sleeping woman, looking at the woman's figure and appearance, it was Su Yinxue.
The black shadow reached out and tapped on Su Yinxue's body a few times, before taking out a brocade box from his arms and taking out a silver needle from it, the light confirmed in the night was sharp and cold.
The man in black slowly inserted the silver needle into Su Yinxue's index knuckle, and the sleeping Su Yinxue frowned slightly, but there was no sign of waking up from the stinging pain.
After about a cup of tea, the black-clothed man put away the silver needle, glanced at Su Yinxue on the bed, and showed a cold look in his eyes, and suddenly, there was a sound outside, it was the mother-in-law who was guarding the door who woke up and handed over the errand with another mother-in-law.
The man in black paused, jumped out of the wing room through the window lattice on the other side, and his figure quickly disappeared into the night.
The second day, when it was dawn, Su Yinxue opened her eyes, looked at the sky, and was surprised that she slept so deeply last night, she hurriedly got up, and today Fushuang was going to send her to the Fan family.
As soon as she changed her clothes, she heard her mother-in-law shouting outside, saying that her wife wanted her to go to the room.
She was shocked, could it be someone from the Fan family who came.
Suddenly, she opened her hands and looked at it, as if she had some numbness, but she didn't know what was wrong.
I didn't have time to think about it, she had already been taken to the upper room by the two mothers-in-law to see the blessings.
When I came to the upper room, I didn't see anyone from the Fan family, only Shuangzhi with a gloomy face, and Shi Can and his wife.
Shuangzhi glanced at Su Yinxue coldly and asked. "Su Yinxue, are you already committed to the second master?"
