－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

The next day, Ling Xiao picked Shuangxi, the boy next to him, to study at home.

Because of this matter, Ling Xiao was in a very good mood. He stayed in Qiushui Pavilion and talked to Ling Jingshu for a long time, with a blush of excitement on his fair and beautiful face.

Ling Jingshu was not impatient at all and listened with a smile.

All the cousins ​​in the family are studying at home school. Ling Xiao stayed in the inner house all day. Although he had no worries about food and clothing, he was very lonely. The only people who can come into contact with on weekdays are the female family members of the inner house. She was the only one who really had the patience to listen to him.

"...By the way, when I came here just now, I met my cousin from the Lu family." Ling Xiao suddenly mentioned Lu Hong: "He was very kind and friendly, and he even talked to me for a while! "

Ling Jingshu's expression turned cold.

Fortunately, Ling Xiao couldn't see her eyes and didn't know her reaction at this time. He continued to say with a smile: "Cousin Lu heard that I sent a boy to study at home for me and praised me. I told him that you were doing it for me. The way I thought of it, he praised you for your intelligence. He also said that the peonies you planted were particularly beautiful, and that you had a beautiful orchid heart..."

Ling Jingshu didn't want to hear anything related to Lu Hong, so she opened her mouth and interrupted Ling Xiao: "Axiao, grandma's 70th birthday is coming soon. All the posts from the house have been sent out, and the uncle and the others haven't arrived in Dingzhou yet. It’s not like something happened and I was delayed on the way!”

Ling Xiao's attention was immediately diverted, and he sighed worriedly: "Yes, grandma has been talking about uncle and his family these past two days."

From the capital to Dingzhou, it is thousands of miles away. If something happens on the way, it will delay the trip, which is really worrying.

"Maybe we will arrive today." Ling Jingshu comforted Ling Xiao with a smile: "Uncle and the others took an official boat and took the official road all the way. Those thieves and gangsters with ulterior motives will never dare to approach. You don't have to worry too much."

Ling Xiao nodded obediently.

Ling Jingshu pondered for a moment and suddenly whispered: "Axiao, I have something to discuss with you."

Ling Xiao laughed: "If you have anything to say, just say it directly. I'm not used to such a serious tone."

The two siblings were born only half an hour apart, but Ling Jingshu always took care of him like a real eldest sister. After becoming blind, Ling Xiao trusted and relied on her even more. Ling Xiao mostly obeyed what Ling Jingshu said.

Ling Jingshu's eyes were a little gentler and she said in a low voice: "Axiao, after you fell down, you suffered a brain injury, which made you blind. Many famous doctors have been invited to diagnose and treat you over the years, but they have not been able to cure you. Eyes. I thought that the doctors here in Dingzhou are not very good, and most of the real experts in Xinglin are in Taiyuan Hospital. So, I want to take you to the capital to seek medical treatment for your eyes."

Ling Xiao looked surprised and confused, unable to react for a moment. After a long while, he stammered: "But, but, why are my father and grandmother willing to let us siblings go to the capital alone? Even if we get to the capital, how can we find famous doctors?"

Ling Jingshu has been thinking about this matter since she was reborn. At this time, he was confident in his talk: "We can go to the capital with the uncle's family and stay in their house for a while. With the uncle and aunt taking care of me, I think my father and grandmother have nothing to worry about."

"After arriving in the capital, I will try to find a way to find a famous doctor. You don't have to worry. The worst result is just to maintain the original condition. If it is cured, your eyes will be able to see again. Don't you want to study openly and participate in science? Take the exam?"

Of course!

In the past few years, he has had this dream almost every day: his eyes have recovered and he can see again. He can read, learn calligraphy, and take scientific examinations. He will no longer be a waste in the eyes of everyone, and will no longer be a drag on Ling Jingshu...

A strange blush appeared on Ling Xiao's fair face, his breathing was rapid and unsteady, and he murmured to himself uncertainly: "Will I really see the day again?"

Ling Jingshu felt deep pity and distress in her heart. She quietly squeezed Ling Xiao's trembling hand and said firmly: "Yes, there will definitely be such a day. Ah Xiao, you believe me!"

Ling Xiao nodded vigorously.

"Only you and I know what I said today, so don't let it out of your mouth for the time being." Ling Jingshu said quickly, "I'm here for everything, so you don't need to worry."

Ling Xiao nodded subconsciously, and then sighed guiltily: "Ah Shu, it would be great if I didn't have to be a burden. You can be like Cousin Wan and Cousin Xian, leisurely and comfortable all day long, thinking about how to dress yourself up. Just be more beautiful. It’s all me..."

"How can you be a burden?" Ling Jingshu scolded softly: "We are siblings, and we are the closest people to each other in this world. As long as I can cure your eyes, I will be willing to do anything. "

The first reason I went to the capital was to treat Ling Xiao's eyes. Secondly, she also wanted to look for opportunities to take revenge.

The identity of the enemy is inaccessible. If she wants to take revenge with her own strength, it is undoubtedly like an ant shaking a tree and striking a stone with its egg. Therefore, she had to go to the capital to find another way.

Mrs. Ling and Fifth Master Ling would never agree to go to the capital alone. On the pretext of treating Ling Xiao's eyes, it was easier to convince them.

Moreover, the road ahead is vast and I don’t know how much time and effort it will take. How could she trust Ling Xiao to stay alone in Ling Mansion?

...

After convincing Ling Xiao, Ling Jingshu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The two siblings passed the time chatting casually. When noon was approaching, Mrs. Ling specially sent Mo Kui over and ordered the two siblings to go to Yonghe Hall together.

Having lunch with Mrs. Ling at Yonghe Hall is an enviable good thing. There is a separate small kitchen in Yonghe Hall, and the food for three meals a day is much better than that in the large kitchen. Moreover, this also represents Mrs. Ling's partiality and love.

In the past, this would have been a good thing. However, when she thought about the presence of brothers Ling and Lu Hong, Ling Jingshu couldn't help but laugh.

However, Mrs. Ling's orders were never to be refused.

After Mo Kui finished explaining his intention, he couldn't help but be secretly surprised when he saw that Ling Jingshu's face was not happy. But she didn't reveal anything on her face, and said with a smile: "The old lady is already waiting at Yonghe Hall. Please ask Miss Ninth and Young Master Ten to leave now. Don't make the old lady wait impatiently."

Ling Jingshu composed herself and responded lightly: "I understand."

Although Ling Xiao's eyes are invisible, he is extremely careful and sharp. Almost immediately, she noticed something strange about Ling Jingshu. She leaned into Ling Jingshu's ear and whispered, "A'shu, don't you want to go? Otherwise, I can go there alone and tell my grandmother that you are unwell..." .”

Ling Jingshu felt warm in her heart and her eyes softened a little: "Grandma let me go because she felt pity for me. What if I don't go? Don't worry, I'm doing very well now."

At most, the sight of Ling's mother and son would make them unable to eat.

...

When they arrived at Yonghe Hall, Ling's mother and son were indeed there.

Ling Jingshu and Ling Xiao stepped forward together to help Mrs. Ling, Mrs. Ling.

The moment he saw Ling Jingshu, a hint of joy flashed in Lu Hong's eyes, and he stood up and saluted as an equal: "Cousin Shu."

In front of Mrs. Ling, Ling Jingshu had to endure it and returned the greeting as usual: "Cousin Lu, you are polite."

Lu Qian also stood up, with a smile on his delicate face and a cheerful tone: "Cousin Shu, you are finally here. I was just telling my grandmother that the Luoyang Brocade you planted is so beautiful. We The Lu family’s peony garden doesn’t have such beautiful peonies.”

Ling Jingshu twitched the corners of her lips lightly: "Cousin Qian, you are so complimentary."

Lu Qian didn't seem to notice Ling Jingshu's coldness, and continued to smile warmly: "Cousin Shu, I would like to ask you for advice on how to plant peonies. I wonder when cousin Shu will be free?"

They call each other cousins ​​​​very affectionately.

Is she so familiar with him?

Ling Jingshu frowned slightly and responded perfunctorily: "I don't deserve cousin Qian's high praise. In fact, these peonies were planted by gardeners. I was just watching. It has an undeserved reputation. If you are interested in planting peonies, you might as well go to the peony garden and the gardeners will tell you everything.”

Lu Qian was not discouraged even though he encountered a soft nail. He turned to Mrs. Ling and said coquettishly: "Grandma, you just told me that cousin Shu is good at growing peonies. I sincerely asked cousin Shu for advice, but she refused to pay attention to me at all! "

Ling Jingshu: "..."

This Lu Qian, did he take the wrong medicine?

Old Mrs. Ling has not seen her grandson for so many years, but these days she almost holds him in her hand and obeys everything. Hearing this, he immediately glanced at Ling Jingshu angrily: "Sister Shu, since A Qian is interested in planting peonies, just give him some advice."

As soon as Mrs. Ling spoke, Ling Jingshu could no longer refuse with the same words. She pretended to be embarrassed and whispered: "Grandma, men and women should sit separately at the age of seven. My late cousin is also twelve this year, and he and I will go alone. There is always something wrong in the peony garden..."

"Cousin Shu's concerns are indeed justified." Lu Hong's eyes lit up and he immediately jumped in: "I'll just go with you. This way, no one will gossip."

Ling Jingshu: "..."

Mrs. Ling saw some signs on the side and smiled meaningfully: "Okay, after lunch, you guys can go to the garden together."

Ling Jingshu pursed her lips and wanted to say something, but finally didn't open her mouth.

Although Ling Xiao couldn't see clearly Ling Jingshu's expression, he was keenly aware of her gloomy mood and couldn't help but feel strange. Cousin Hong is kind and friendly, and cousin Qian can also be called lively and cute. But Ling Jingshu seemed to dislike the two brothers very much...

"Ah Shu, I have nothing to do anyway, so I will go to the peony garden with you to relax later." Ling Xiao smiled and tugged on Ling Jingshu's sleeve.

With him by his side, Ling Jingshu should be in a better mood!

Ling Xiao's little thoughts couldn't be hidden from Ling Jingshu.

Ling Jingshu hummed and her brows widened.
