Chapter 705: Sacrifice
What suddenly appeared behind Zhang Dachuan was Lin Muwen, who had a few encounters with him in Bailong City.
Although they have only met a few times, Zhang Dachuan has a very good impression of this peer who has a very positive outlook and has repeatedly helped him speak at critical moments.
However, the previous few times they met, Zhang Dachuan didn't see Lin Muwen's details because of the strength realm, and now he has successfully stepped into the peak of the qi and blood realm, and his sense of the aura of a martial artist is much sharper.
Moreover, he is also a martial artist in the middle of the famous blood realm.
At this age, this realm is already outstanding, but Lin Muwen does not have the arrogance and arrogance of a martial artist, and he is very modest and low-key.
Lin Muwen was wearing a brand-new suit, and the whole person looked very handsome and handsome, and he looked very formal.
He looked at Zhang Dachuan with a smile, spread his hands and said in a natural tone:
"It's my sister's engagement today, how could I be absent? Not to mention that it is in Bailong City, even if it is abroad, you have to fly back. ”
Zhang Dachuan suddenly pointed at Lin Muwen and said:
"No wonder, I feel familiar when I see you a few times, it turns out that you are Lin Xiaoying's younger brother!"
While speaking, Lin Muwen had already come to the table here, and bowed politely to Liang Jingtian to say hello:
"Hello Grandpa Liang, I'm relieved to see that you are so healthy."
Liang Jingtian nodded with a smile:
"Muwen is back, you have time to come to my house to sit, you loved to come to my house to play when you were a child."
Lin Muwen scratched his head and smiled, and snorted.
Liang Jingtian saw that Lin Muwen and Zhang Dachuan had something to say, so he smiled and proposed to Zheng Nanshan:
"Brother Nanshan, let's go, let's go meet the old things of the Tang family, let them see my current physical condition, hmph, one by one, they call themselves miracle doctors, but they are not as good as Zhang Xiaoyou, I have to ridicule them today."
Zheng Nanshan nodded:
"Good idea, those wastes of the Tang family, they only know how to stick to the rules, it's time to give them some stimulation."
The two immediately got up, waved their hands to Zhang Dachuan with a smile and said:
"We won't bother you young people to catch up, go to the Tang family to rub a table, if you need anything, just go over and find us."
Zhang Dachuan and the three of them hurriedly got up and watched Liang Jingtian and Zheng Nanshan leave.
As soon as Liang Jingtian left, Lin Muwen suddenly relaxed, enthusiastically pulled out his chair, sat down next to Zhang Dachuan, and said with a smile:
"I was betting with my sister that you would come tonight."
"My sister, she didn't believe it, saying that you coward would definitely not dare to come here, and that you listened to Miss Su the most."
After he finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Su Yun beside Zhang Dachuan and blinked:
"Hello, Miss Su."
Su Yun smiled a little embarrassedly and asked Lin Muwen:
"How's your sister doing? Since she returned to Dongjiang, she has not contacted us, and it has taken a long time for me to find her. ”
Lin Muwen smiled bitterly:
"It's not good, although there is food and clothing, but people are always sullen."
"Since she came back suddenly, the family was afraid that she would run away again, so they put her under house arrest in the backyard, and they didn't even let the Lin Mansion out."
As he spoke, he shook his head and sighed in confusion:
"I really don't know what she thinks, she ran away, and suddenly came back to do something, this is a cage for her."
When Zhang Dachuan and Su Yun heard this, they were also puzzled.
I'm afraid this matter is only clear to Lin Xiaoying herself.
At this time, the lively courtyard suddenly quieted down, and everyone stretched their necks to look in the direction of the backyard.
I saw the direction of the backyard, and a group of people dressed up and walked out.
The leader was over fifty years old, dressed in dark clothes, smiling, exuding a faint sense of majesty.
Beside this person was a kind old woman, also dressed in full costume, although she was too old, but her face was ruddy, and she was much tougher than ordinary old people of the same age.
I heard an excited exclamation from the crowd:
"It's Lin Yaozhong, the current head of the Lin family! And the old lady of the Lin family! ”
When Zhang Dachuan heard this, he subconsciously turned his head to look at Lin Muwen, who smiled with a complicated expression, nodded and said:
"That's right, that's my dad and my grandma."
"And followed by my third uncle's family, as well as some family juniors."
Knowing that Zhang Dachuan didn't know the history of his family, Lin Muwen took advantage of this moment to tell Zhang Dachuan about the situation at home in a low voice.
The Lin family, one of the four major families of the Dongjiang River, has a long family history and many branches and leaves, and the former head of the family, Mr. Lin, has three sons and one daughter.
Ten years ago, the old man of the Lin family was critically ill, and before he died, he passed the position of head of the family to the eldest Lin Yaozhong, that is, the father of Lin Xiaoying and Lin Muwen.
But knowing the son is Mo Ruo's father, the old man knows very well that his boss has good ability, but he lacks courage, and he belongs to the kind of person who has more than enough to keep and is not enterprising; The second son, Lin Shangyi, is a pure waste, and he is even more useless; The youngest son, Lin Chongli, is ambitious and extremely ruthless, and it is difficult for others to suppress him at home except for the old man.
Because he was worried that there would be a struggle for power among the three sons after his death, before his death, Mr. Lin and the then head of the Ning family set a marriage - to marry Lin Yaozhong's daughter Lin Xiaoying to Ning Hao, the son of the head of the Ning family.
In this way, even if the third Lin Chongli wants to rebel in the future, he must weigh whether he can offend the two Ninglin families at the same time.
In fact, there is a precedent for similar marriages between the two families of Ning Lin, and the mother of Old Man Lin is the Ning family.
At that time, the Ninglin family had a close relationship, and the other two families who had been pressed for a time couldn't raise their heads.
It's just that when it comes to Lin Xiaoying and Lin Muwen's generation, this relationship has gone through four generations, and naturally it is not as close as it was back then.
Although Mr. Lin had the foresight to arrange such a marriage, after the old man died, the three brothers of the Lin family still had infighting.
In the end, Lin Yaozhong still managed to sit firmly as the head of the family with the support of the old lady of the Lin family and stopped the infighting of the Lin family, but the Lin family was still greatly damaged because of this.
Now, ten years have passed, Lin Xiaoying and Ning Hao are both adults, and the old lady is old, and it is time to fulfill his promise.
After listening to Lin Muwen's story, Zhang Dachuan frowned:
"So your sister's marriage is really a family marriage from beginning to end? She doesn't have any choice? ”
Lin Muwen smiled bitterly and nodded:
"That's right, from beginning to end, she was a victim of the marriage of both families."
When Zhang Dachuan heard this, he suddenly laughed.
Because, he suddenly felt that what he had to do later, there was no psychological burden.
