Chapter 72: The Counterattack of the Maid in the Room (16)
Looking at his daughter-in-law who was standing at the bottom and obediently replying, Lin Peng finally realized the advantages of the privileged class.
He knew very well in his heart that no one was serious about Yaya's matter, and if he really took it out on the line, even if there was no participation of the political enemies of the Chu family, their Lin family would not be good in the end. Now as long as Chu Wen says a word, the black yarn that he has worked hard for more than ten years will not be saved, and Yaya will no longer be used as a handle to participate in their Lin Mansion after passing the bright road. The most important thing is to let many people who are watching him Lin Peng know that the Chu family will not stand by and watch the Lin Mansion, and he can also use this to make more friends with people who he couldn't make friends with before.
Sure enough, it was the benefit of privilege, thinking back to his uneasy appearance this day, he couldn't help but laugh, with the Chu family and the Lu family, what else did he have to worry about. Looking at this daughter-in-law who fell from the sky and nodded with satisfaction, this is what a gentle and humble lady should look like, tall and docile, how far the Lin Mansion can go in the future depends on her. "Yu'er really deserves to be the daughter of the family, and this matter was also the negligence of the Lin Mansion in the housekeeper. Now that you are the eldest daughter-in-law of the Lin family, it is time to take over the stewardship. ”
Mrs. Lin's originally happy face immediately drooped, and she looked at Chu Yunyun with a gloomy expression.
Chu Yunyun was also stunned when he heard this, the housekeeping power is not something that the bride can easily touch, especially with the virtue of the Lin family, it is impossible to hand over the power easily, didn't the original body have not touched it in the month when it was held? How much property can the Lin Mansion have, in order to talk about the pomp and circumstance, she doesn't plan to take this hot potato, there is no reason to use her own money to supplement the opponent, besides, didn't you see Mrs. Lin pulling her face and being covered in black gas?
"My father-in-law is really loving, but my daughter-in-law is young and ignorant, so I am afraid it will be difficult to take on this important responsibility. I have heard that my mother-in-law is the number one housekeeper, and I will know that the house is in order. As for the matter of Yaya, in fact, the daughter-in-law wanted to say it a long time ago, it was not the mother-in-law's fault, the Son of Heaven ruled the world with filial piety, and everyone would be like this, and the father-in-law should not blame these mistakes anymore. Chu Yunyun lowered his head and said softly.
Mrs. Lin immediately laughed when she heard this, this daughter-in-law really became more and more satisfied the more she looked at it, intimate and knowledgeable.
"Look at Yu'er's sweet mouth, but it's not bragging for her mother, you really can't find much fault with this Lin Mansion. Hearing Master Lin's cough, Mrs. Lin woke up from her complacency, and hurriedly said seriously, "But let's also talk about things, and my mother has learned a lesson this time, and she will definitely not do it again in the future." ”
"Okay, daughter-in-law go back to the room first, Xuan'er has been waiting for you for a day. "The matter that Lin Peng cares about has been resolved, as long as Xuan'er can firmly grasp Chu Yunyun in the palm of his hand in the future, he still has to tell Mrs. Lin some more things.
"Yes, you two can eat dinner in your own yard, those rules are for outsiders to see, how comfortable to come at home. Mrs. Lin also said with a smile.
Chu Yunyun smiled and said goodbye, presumably Master Lin had something to tell Mrs. Lin again.
When he returned to the courtyard, he saw Lin Xuan leaning on the couch and waiting for her, and when he saw her return to the room, he hurriedly asked. Chu Yunyun sat on the chair and told the story from beginning to end, looked at him relieved, and then began to order dinner. Lin Xuan adhered to the rule of "food is not spoken", while Chu Yunyun didn't want to talk to him, and the two finished dinner in silence.
This courtyard was originally Lin Xuan's, and the Lin Mansion did not set up another courtyard as a new house. In order to facilitate Lin Xuan's reading, the bookcase, tables and chairs were specially placed in the corner of the master bedroom as a small study, so that when you want to read indoors, you don't have to go to the outer courtyard study. Chu Yunyun asked Chun Tao to find out the medical book she had brought from Uncle Yu, and then sat at the desk and looked.
Lin Xuan was still thinking about what to talk about, after all, he didn't know much about this wife, seeing that she was sitting there alone and reading for a long time, he couldn't help but speak first: "Madam, what book are you reading so fascinating?"
Chu Yunyun finally waited until he spoke, raised his head with a smile, and raised the medical book in his hand to Yang, "When I returned to the door, I asked Dr. Yu for the medical book I borrowed, and I thought that Yaya was either sick or my husband was injured in the past few days, and I blamed me for not knowing medical skills before, otherwise I wouldn't be helpless when my husband was injured, so I could only be in a hurry." So I want to take advantage of this time to read more medical books, in addition to curing diseases, you can also maintain health and fitness. ”
Lin Xuan looked at the woman smiling in the candlelight, feeling her care and concern, which was a comfort he had never experienced from Jiao'er. Jiao'er is a little woman who should be pampered in her arms, he can hold up a piece of heaven for her, and Chu Yunyun is a good wife who can be by his side and help him to a bright future, and he can carry her hand to old age. It is his blessing to have such a beautiful wife. "Thank you, ma'am. ”
"Husband, I'm out again, isn't it? The hour is not early, and Hu'er will not disturb her husband's rest. Chu Yunyun said goodbye to Lin Xuan with a smile and returned to her current room.
Looking at the medical book in her hand, Chu Yunyun couldn't help but feel a little remorseful, when she was in the desert, she just thought that she could just learn life-saving kung fu, anyway, with You Min here, it didn't matter if she didn't learn such complicated medical skills. Now, everything is starting from scratch, and she has no other abilities than the martial arts moves she has learned. This time, she must learn medical skills well, she understands that no matter how good things are, they are useless after all.
Studying medicine is not only a necessary guarantee for the future, but also an excuse to inquire about my grandmother's condition. She deliberately wandered in front of Lin Xuan for so long, firstly, to find a reason for her to suddenly read a medical book, and secondly, she also wanted to brush Lin Xuan's favor. At present, the effect is not bad, but now her weight in Lin Xuan's heart is still not as good as Lin Jiao'er, but it can almost be equal, and the future will be long.
The next day, when he went down to the court, Chu Yunyun received the news sent by Chu's father that Lin Peng really kept the black gauze hat, but he did not keep his five-grade official hat. In addition to being fined two years, the official was demoted one level and became a foreigner. This may be the best result for Lin Peng today, but compared to the trajectory of his previous life, which is about to be promoted to two levels in a row, it is always a big victory for Chu Yunyun.
Lin Peng rarely went back to the house for lunch, and usually ate it simply in the yali to create his image of diligence and frugality. Today, it is rare to go back to the house, and gather the people in the house to have dinner together.
After hearing the maid's communication, Chu Yunyun also understood the meaning of his move, took off the set of ruby beads and hairpins on his hair, replaced them with a much more low-key pearl ornament, and explained to Lin Xuan a few times before walking towards the main hall with the servants.
Lin Feng had been sitting there for a long time, and when she saw Chu Yunyun coming in, she immediately looked at her jewelry and changed it again. Although these pearl jewelry are not as luxurious and gorgeous as the previous jadeite and jade, they are also rare treasures to look at the full and round, especially the pink forehead pendant, which is more and more fair and beautiful.
Chu Yunyun sat under Mrs. Lin after seeing the salute, and she had already noticed the gaze of Lin Feng beside her, and she couldn't ignore such a strong gaze.
