Two rows of house slaves trotted into the room when they heard the movement, holding sticks in their hands to surround Lin Xiyue.

The irrepressible anger climbed up to her eyebrows, Lin Xiyue was fearless, and asked coldly, "Does my father really dare to beat me?" ”

Father Lin was so angry that the corners of his mouth twitched, and a sneer overflowed with the heat in his nostrils.

"I am your father! Why don't I dare discipline you if you make a mistake? ”

After living for two lifetimes, Lin Xiyue knew his temperament the best, and refuted sharply: "Lin Miaoyin instructed his subordinates to steal my jade pendant, so as the eldest sister, I can naturally discipline her." ”

"Ridiculous! Your sister is going to be a little bit of your shit. ”

The ridicule was like a slap on Lin Xiyue's face, and Father Lin, who spoke, also realized that something was wrong, and coughed weakly.

On weekdays, if there are any good things in the house, they are all sent to the concubine's courtyard, and Lin Xiyue can usually only get some leftover items picked by others, which is really not worth worrying about.

"Husband, you can't just listen to one side, Miao Yin was wronged."

Zhang Chunyun covered his chest, his two curved eyebrows were twisted together, his expression became painful, and his weak body swayed from side to side, looking like he was about to fall to the ground.

Seeing this, Father Lin pinched the concubine's wrist distressedly: "I'll figure it out, don't be angry." ”

The father cared more about the mother and daughter, and did not care about the truth of the theft.

"My sister hit me and wanted to stun my mother! What a cruel heart! ”

Lin Miaoyin lowered her eyelids aggrievedly, and her sideburns were wet with tears and stuck to her red and swollen cheeks.

The mother and daughter sang and harmonized, which made Father Lin angry, and waved his sleeves to reprimand: "Ah Fu! Go to the family law and fight until the lady admits her mistake! ”

The staff was hard and straight, and when it was swung, it folded out a few dark shadows that flickered overhead.

Lin Xiyue's face did not change, and she calmly looked at the house slave who was executed.

Inexplicably received a cold glare, and the house slave couldn't help but hesitate a little, looking at Father Lin, who was moving towards the right position.

Kicking away the wooden staff in front of her legs, Lin Xiyue walked straight to the men and women who were helping each other, and asked lightly.

"Why don't you ask me where I got the jade pendant?"

"Husband......

A trace of panic flashed on Zhang Chunyun's face, and the bright red long armor hooked Father Lin's sleeve and pulled gently.

"The Lord Regent is my brother-in-law, and he sent me a lot of jewels."

In order to drown out the sound of the mother and daughter crying, Lin Xiyue raised her voice suddenly, turned her head to stare at the dark light outside the door for a moment, and then spoke.

"If my father beats me, and when it gets dark, the regent sends someone to ask me, and when he sees the color on me, I'm afraid it won't be easy to reply."

I sent jewelry and sent someone to ask questions.

This thoughtful gesture made Father Lin's eyes light up, and he knocked a small abacus in his heart, and his face couldn't help but soften: "The regent really treats you so well?" ”

"Father, please look."

Lin Xiyue didn't answer his words, and opened Jinpa by herself.

The exquisite and unparalleled jade pendant appeared in everyone's field of vision.

"This was given to you by the regent?" Father Lin was in hot pursuit.

"Yes."

Lin Xiyue nodded and put the jade pendant into her wide sleeve.

"This bracelet is a tribute from the border country, the emperor rewarded the regent, its precious value is immeasurable, the regent sent it specially said that the jade is good to raise people, and ordered me to wear it with me."

Speaking of this, she paused for a moment and deliberately raised her eyes to look at Lin Miaoyin.

"If my sister stole other jewelry, I wouldn't say anything. But this jade pendant is different, the next time he sees the regent, he asks, and finds out about the theft, I'm afraid we will implicate our Lin family......"

What will be the consequences of offending the regent.

Father Lin didn't dare to think about it at all, and raised his hand to wave away those house slaves: "Go down, go down, if today's events leak out half a word, crush your tongue!" ”

The house slaves hung their heads and dragged their sticks away.

The next moment, Father Lin twisted his head and scolded Lin Miaoyin, but his eyes were full of tenderness.

"How can you do such a stealing thing!"

It's the kind of tenderness that a father should have.

Lin Xiyue never had it.

As long as she does the slightest wrong, she will inevitably be ridiculed by her father.

"Father, I really don't."

A few tears slipped from her eyes, and Lin Miaoyin fell to her knees as soft as a boneless, her trembling body like a newborn calf.

Innocent and pitiful.

Father Lin was distressed, but because Lin Xiyue was still standing aside, he didn't bend over to help.

"Husband, don't be instigated by others. You know the character of our Miao Yin best. ”

Zhang Chunyun cried and was dazzled, and his fingertips twisted the corner of the pink handkerchief and gently wiped the wet marks from the corners of his eyes.

The mother and daughter seem to have been greatly wronged.

The witnesses were waiting in the firewood room, Lin Xiyue looked at them coldly, turned around and knelt to the side, wanting to tell her father the pros and cons.

It's a pity that the corners of her lips didn't move, and Zhang Chunyun took the first step to hug her daughter, aggrieved and begging.

"Not to mention who stole the jade pendant, Xiyue's face was beaten like this by you, who is a sister, if it is broken, how can you choose your husband's family in the future."

Lin Xiyue's eyes sank, and she choked coldly: "Didn't you just say it?" The father knows best that his sister is virtuous and virtuous, and it is the woman's character that ordinary people care about when they marry a wife. If you run into a family that only cares about appearance, it doesn't matter if you don't get married. ”

Ordinary people.

The humiliating words completely stimulated Zhang Chunyun.
