In that room, Lin Xi and Shang Jueheng were still discussing the matter of the killer in the Ruyi Building.
Even if an order is given to investigate, there will not be much progress in a short time.When taking Lin Xi away from Linzhou, Shang Jueheng also left some people in Linzhou to ensure the safety of the scholar and keep an eye on the movements of the Lin family.
On the contrary, the Lin family didn't make any big moves. The Lin Yuan siblings became much better because of the incident with the magistrate's nephew.If you should please Master Lin, you should please, and if you should study business, you should study hard.
Lin Yuan, as the heroine of this world, still has some intelligence after all. Some of the business routines she used before time travel successfully won the favor of Master Lin.
No matter where she is, as long as she has a clear mind and the experience of living a whole life, it is relatively simple compared to other boudoir women.Moreover, Master Lin is not a patriarchal generation. Since Lin Yuan has such an idea and can make achievements, how can he stop it?
After all, he is a businessman. Compared with some old-fashioned ideas, interests are far more important than other things.
Lin Xi felt that his thoughts seemed to be drifting a little far away, and the problem at hand appeared on the scholar.The female bandit has not tired of forcing the scholar for three years, which is enough to explain the degree of persistence of the other party, and one can imagine how furious she would be when she learned that the scholar was robbed.
At the same time, a small group of unidentified bandits appeared around Linzhou in the past few months, and at the same time, several unidentified people were camping near the music hall.
Shang Jueheng saw that he kept frowning in thought, couldn't help but raised his hand to put on his brow, and stroked it carefully.Seeing the other party's clear eyes looking over, he said seriously, "I really hope you don't know all these things, and let me help you block all the wind and snow."
Maybe it's because Lin Xi has gotten used to him being serious and indifferent to the outside world these days, but treats him like a clingy loyal dog.For a moment, he was not used to the change of the other party. His serious appearance of talking about love made his heart skip a beat, and his face also had a tendency to become hot.
Because Lin Xi lowered his head slightly, Shang Jueheng didn't see any abnormality in him, but continued with a calm tone and attitude, "You are calm enough and have your own thoughts, I shouldn't restrain you but I selfishly hope that you To live in a world that depends only on me."
In fact, Shang Jueheng was very surprised that he had such a thought. In the past few years, he had never had such an obsessive thought about a person or a thing.
In the ten years since he took over the Merchant Fort, he has been indifferent and self-sufficient, and he has behaved both righteously and evilly.Jiang Hu's evaluation of him is also mixed, but he doesn't care.
In terms of love, there is even a blank, unless the pain is relieved.
Concubines like Ji wanted to leave or stay. He never interfered, let alone forced anyone.
Lin Xi is like a light source appearing in his heart, causing a seed in his heart that has been hidden for many years to suddenly break out of the ground and gradually take root and sprout.
I just don't know where there is a deviation. The seed did not bloom smoothly but grew into a vine. The vine slowly stretched until it touched the light source.
But in the end, the vines were only vaguely wrapped around the light source, forming an indestructible cage.
Shang Jueheng took Lin Xi into his arms, but he didn't let him see the bottomless darkness in his eyes.
Because the schedule was delayed again and again, half a month had passed by the time Lin Xi and the others returned to Linzhou.The temperature is also warmer as it gets closer to the south, so there is no need to wear a fox fur cloak all the time to keep warm.
After entering Linzhou city gate, Qin Zhiyuan left first due to business matters.Before leaving, I confirmed with the Xiao Jin brothers and sisters where they stayed, and I will visit them again when I have time.
And Xiao Jin only said that he was going to seek refuge in a music hall opened by a friend.
Qin Zhiyuan promised that he would talk to them after finishing the matter.
Before returning home, Lin Xi went to Liu's Mansion first. When Mr. Liu saw him coming back, his expression was worried and angry.
Lin Xi hurried forward and took the old man's arm, and said obediently, "Grandpa, don't be angry, it's Xi'er who went out without telling you. It was because the schedule was a little urgent at that time, so... "
"You!" Mr. Liu wanted to scold, but he looked at his grandson with distressed expression, "It's not wrong to go out and see the world more, and grandpa doesn't object to your association with people in the world, but you should go home anyway." Just say it, how can there be any reason to leave home after throwing down a letter?"
"It's Xi'er who is wrong, can't Xi'er apologize to you?"
After coaxing for a long time, Lin Xi calmed down Mr. Liu's anger, and then explained that Liu Wangcheng was delayed by something and would not be able to return until several days later.
Lin Xi got into Shang Jueheng's carriage after leaving Liufu, and went back to Lin's house.
Unlike waiting outside Liu's mansion, Shang Jueheng personally escorted Lin Xi back to the Lin family, and he didn't care about the panic caused by the sudden visit of the Lin family.
Shang Jueheng has the air of a quack, with the black cloak casually draped over his shoulders, and the sword in his hand, even a non-jianghu like Master Lin can tell that it is not extraordinary.
It's just that Master Lin always feels that this imposing man looks familiar, but if he has seen such a person, how can he forget it.
I didn't think about it any more.
Then, when eating at night, Master Lin's expression was a little unsightly.During the day, when he heard Lin Xi talk about the origin of this man, became friends with him, and even traveled around together, his mind became alive.
As simple as that, Shang Jueheng became a distinguished guest of the Lin family.
After all, with his reputation in Jianghu, the business routes and business contacts he can involve are not comparable to a small businessman like Master Lin.If you can use this to hook up with Jianghu's business, it will be a good deal.
It's a pity that the owner of Shangbao is indifferent and doesn't like oil and salt.Master Lin tried to strike up a conversation with the other party many times, but ended in failure.
At the dinner table, Liu Xihan held Lin Xi's hand distressedly, and continued to pick up vegetables for him.
When Lin Xi didn't know how many dishes he picked up and how much he ate, he stopped Liu Xihan from continuing to pick up vegetables with his hands.
She was a little stunned for a moment, and looked up at the expressionless man, and when she looked at Lin Xi's bitter face, she suddenly understood.
She shook her head and said, "Mother is so confused, you should have something light to eat after a long journey. I drank this bowl of soup, which was boiled by my mother after staring at the kitchen for two hours, but Don't waste it."
The three of them enjoyed themselves happily, Master Lin and Lin Yuan's mother and second concubine were also sitting together.Lin Yuan's gaze was on Shang Jueheng, secretly admiring that this man is really top-notch.
To describe it in modern terms, it is simply the type that makes people stunned. With a strong background in martial arts, it seems that as long as he loves someone, he will absolutely love her for the rest of his life.
She originally thought that Qin Zhiyuan was the man with the best qualifications she had seen so far, but Shang Jueheng appeared so unexpectedly, and then she couldn't help but waver.
But the most difficult thing is that the other party is Lin Xi's friend...
Here, Lin Yuan's heart was surging, but there was still a very awkward atmosphere at the dinner table.Lin Yuan's mother has been gaining momentum recently. Seeing Master Lin's dissatisfied face, she decided to help her change the atmosphere. After thinking about it, she raised her glass and said, "This chivalrous man, Xi'er is spoiled at home. Lord, I don't know how much trouble I have caused you outside, I am here to offer you a toast."
As soon as she finished speaking, there was an instant chill. Even Lin Yuan didn't expect her mother to say such inappropriate words.Maybe she wanted to express that her family dotes on Lin Xi very much, and by the way raise Shang Jueheng.
But it's not appropriate for her to say this, not to mention that their relationship with Liu Xihan is not good enough to say such a thing instead of their mother.
What's more, Liu Xihan didn't feel that her son was capricious at all. Instead, she felt sorry for the other party's hardships outside. Isn't this a slap in the face?
The second aunt also seemed to feel that the atmosphere was instantly stiff. Liu Xihan sat and ate the food with a calm expression, and the upright master——Shang Jueheng, seemed not to accept her glass of wine.
Lin Xi lowered his head and secretly laughed, but he was still playing a fool after all, so he said generously to the steps, "Second Aunt, I didn't cause trouble for Big Brother Shang, it's fun outside."
Shang Jueheng raised his eyes and glanced at Second Aunt Tai, his eyes were cold.He picked up the wine glass in front of him and leaned forward slightly, then said "he's fine" with no expression on his face, and drank it down in one gulp.
The second aunt smiled awkwardly, took back the cup and took a small sip, and didn't dare to speak again.
Master Lin also found a breakthrough in the topic, and said with a fake cough, "You have to go home no matter how fun you are, you know how worried your mother was when she received your letter. This time, go home and spend time with her, and you should take it easy Let’s learn the business of home.”
"Father, why don't you let me run the silk shop on West Street?" Since his cheap father said it so casually, wouldn't he feel sorry for him if he didn't say his request?
Master Lin didn't feel much about this request, but asked with some doubts, "Why do you suddenly think of the silk shop on West Street?"
"Grandpa asked me to learn more about the silk business. I'm reminded of the silk shop on West Street."
Master Lin pondered for a while, the business of the silk shop on West Street went from bad to worse.And now he puts almost all of his focus on Puzhou, and Linzhou is basically handed over to Lin Chuan.
The silk shop on West Street was originally promised to be taken care of by Lin Yuan, but he glanced at Shang Jueheng who was next to Lin Xi.
Immediately, she readily agreed to Lin Xi's request. As for Lin Yuan, she could just give her a try at a pawnshop afterwards.
After all, in Master Lin's eyes, a pawn shop is far more valuable than a silk shop.
But Lin Yuan hated her so much that she wanted to use the silk shop to get closer to Qin Zhiyuan.And in her opinion, the pawn shop is just a store of value, but the development of the silk shop is considerable.
The original plan to kill two birds with one stone was destroyed by Lin Xi, how could Lin Yuan not hate it?But she couldn't help it, not to mention that her father was optimistic about Shang Jueheng, even she had to change her plan slightly.
After dinner, Lin Xi took Shang Jueheng back to the yard. Qingyun had heard that her young master had returned, and had been waiting at the gate of the yard early.When she saw Lin Xi, her eyes filled with water had already filled with tears, "Master..."
The girl Qingyun has always been his right-hand man, and she has a straightforward temper, but he has never seen her look so aggrieved. He took out a handkerchief and put it in Qingyun's hand and asked softly, "What's the matter, I'm not here When did someone bully you?"
Maybe it was because Lin Xi's tone was too gentle, Qingyun's originally suppressed tears fell in a rush.She knelt down in front of Lin Xi with a plop, her hands tightly clutching the hem of her clothes, "I beg the young master to let Qingyun be the master!"
Only then did Lin Xi realize that Lin Chuan had moved Qingyun's mind while he was away. Qingyun had followed him since he was a child to take care of his daily life, which was almost equal to the existence of the big maid in the yard.And at the beginning, he also promised that if Qingyun was willing, he could go out of the house to find a good man to live with at any time.
This Lin Chuan almost tarnished Qingyun's innocence, and even threatened her not to sue Lin Xi, or marry her to that bastard Wang Hua.
Sitting on a chair carved with pear blossom wood, Lin Xi rested his cheeks in deep thought, "You can do whatever you want, and you don't need to worry about anything. I want to see what kind of storm Lin Chuan can create."
Hearing this, Qingyun finally smiled with red eyes.She knew that the young master was hiding his clumsiness a few days ago, so she just wanted to find ways to avoid Lin Chuan. Fortunately, he didn't dare to do anything to her in the young master's yard blatantly.
Now Lin Xi's high-spirited appearance is like a reassurance, so that she doesn't have to worry all the time.
After that, things became more simple and rude. On the surface, Lin Xi ran a silk shop on West Street. The experience he learned from Mr. Liu made him very smooth and he negotiated a few big deals.The children brought back from Tianluo Street were also arranged to watch the shop and keep accounts at the silk shop.
On the contrary, Lin Yuan's side was not going well. All the foreshadowing she made was on the silk shop, including getting close to Qin Zhiyuan and relying on the other party's experience to help her run the business.
Now, because the silk shop did not go smoothly, Lin Yuan's mentality suddenly collapsed. She was so angry that she lost sight of the pawnshop at the time of pawning, and the pawn shop suddenly lost hundreds of taels of silver.
The amount of these several hundred taels of silver is not large, but compared to Lin Xi who brought silk back to life and even started to make a profit, it is like directly telling others that she is not as good as that brat!
Secretly, Lin Xi is also taking care of the music hall, and now the music hall is under the care of Xiao Jin.Xiao Yu would help with some simple things, and she became much more cheerful.Now Xi Chengyun is in charge of the music hall, and there are also a few girls performing arts, Xiao Jin and scholars write songs from time to time.
Therefore, the atmosphere in the music hall is quite good, and there are many guards around the music hall who don't look easy to mess with. Those who want to make trouble or threaten the girls almost have no good end.
For a while, this music hall became the biggest after-dinner topic in Linzhou. For example, who is the owner of the music hall? Not only is he able to invite Xi Chengyun, but also he can occupy a place in this noisy Linzhou...
Some literati and elegant guests became regular visitors to the music hall, and later some young masters who were good at music would come to the music hall to sit and drink.
At this time, in the backyard of the music hall, Shang Jueheng stood in front of Xi Chengyun and the scholar with his hands behind his back.He was so powerful that the scholar didn't dare to look up at him no matter how many times he saw him.
Shang Jueheng took out something from his sleeve and handed it to the scholar, "Do you recognize this thing?"
The scholar raised his head cautiously, and took a step back with a pale face after only one glance.Almost staggered and fell, Xi Chengyun on the side supported his arm worriedly, "Zhou Lang, what's wrong with you?"
As if recalling some painful memories, the scholar pressed his temple and said with difficulty, "This is that woman's thing, and I will never forget it in my life!"
Then, as if thinking of something, he suddenly grabbed Xi Chengyun's hand, "Yun'er, the matter between me and that female bandit is a matter of necessity, trust me!"
Xi Chengyun is such an intelligent person, how could he not be able to tell whether this man has her in his heart?She knew that the scholar had many scars on his body in order to escape, and he was even willing to hide behind this music hall in order to live a peaceful life with her.
After Shang Jueheng was sure, he gave the jade pendant to Lin San behind him, and motioned him to deal with it.After Lin San took the jade pendant, he hesitated, "Is there really no need to report this matter to the master?"
After Shang Jueheng read the letter from the young master of Ruyi Building, the hostility in his eyes increased, and he did not hide his murderous air, "You can deal with this matter well, and there is no need to let such meaningless things go away." He's worried."
Lin San's heart trembled, "Yes."
When Lin Xi took Xiao Yu's hand and walked to the back hall, he saw Xi Chengyun and the scholar standing next to each other, and Shang Jueheng's back was turned to him, which seemed a little strange.
Seeing him, Lin San just bowed with his sword in his arms, and then left directly.
Shang Jueheng turned around and looked at him with gentle eyes. He glanced at the hand he was holding with Xiao Yu, and then Xiao Yu was scared and hid behind Lin Xi.
Lin Xi turned around helplessly, and said softly, "Let Shixue take you to eat snacks, okay? I brought them from the small kitchen in the Lin Mansion, and they are all your favorites."
As soon as Xiao Yu's eyes lit up, he nodded slightly, and let the maid lead her away.
As soon as Xiao Yu left, Shang Jueheng immediately pulled him to his side, "Have you been putting too much attention on others recently, huh?"
Lin Xi smiled, instead of answering his question directly, he asked directly, "What were you talking about just now?"
The scholar's complexion was not very good, and it was not quite right for Lin San to walk so fast, a bit like running away with a guilty conscience.
Shang Jueheng took out a letter from his jacket and handed it to him without changing his expression, "Brother Han wrote, they have arrived in Linzhou, and Liu Wangcheng's injury is almost healed, so don't worry."
"It's good that little uncle is fine." Lin Xi raised his eyebrows and glanced at him before opening the letter to read.
Xi Chengyun was shocked by Shang Jueheng's change in front of Lin Xi. She only learned tonight that the female bandit learned that the scholar was rescued because of her benefactor, so she bought the killer to stop them on the way.
As for Shang Jueheng, it seems that he intends to solve it directly, and he does not intend to tell Engong about it...
But what a sensitive person Engong is... She didn't dare to continue thinking about it, and hurriedly left with the scholar.
After all the people in the way left, Shang Jueheng held his waist and whispered in his ear, "I'll take you to a place."
Then they leaped up to the roof with their feet, and the sound of the wind blew past Lin Xi's ears. It didn't take long for them to be in a dark forest.Shang Jueheng led him to jump lightly between the branches, and finally sat down on a thick branch.
When Lin Xi opened her eyes, she saw a bright moon hanging in the dark night sky. The place where they were located was a cliff, and a tall tree stood alone on the cliff.They were sitting on the branches of this tree, and the scenery outside the cliff was unobstructed.
He sat sideways on Shang Jueheng's lap, leaning against his chest and listening to the steady and powerful heartbeat, as if the world was in his hands.
Shang Jueheng bit Lin Xi's earlobe lightly, and said in a low voice, "Do you think you spend too much time on others? So should you make it up to me?"
The dexterous tongue gently slid across the sensitive area around the ears, causing Lin Xi to turn his head away unconsciously, and the fair skin on the side of his neck was stained with a faint blush.
The other party's hand had already untied his belt and reached into his clothes. Lin Xi thought that he had really been left out during this period of time, so he let his hand keep lighting the fire on his body.
Shang Jueheng didn't stop moving his hands, and still whispered in his ear, "Do you know what I want to do now? I want to make you unable to close your legs under the moonlight."
He squinted his eyes and could almost imagine how perfect Lin Xi's emotional face and fair legs would be under the radiance of the moonlight.And all of this can only belong to him.
Lin Xi felt that he was really out of shape. At the beginning, he really thought about how exciting it would be to have sex with the Lord God in the woods.But when it actually happened, he wasn't big enough to fully accept it, okay?
The excitement of being in the wild made him suppress his voice, and his heartbeat echoed heavily in his ears.
Because of the posture problem, when Lin Xi returned to his bed, his waist was sore and his legs were weak, especially in a certain overused place, which was basically unconscious.
Lying on the bed, Lin Xi couldn't help covering his blushing face, he was getting more and more bottomless...
When Shang Jueheng walked in, he saw Lin Xi's appearance, smiled and walked over to take his hand off.
Looking at the moist eyes of the other party, he couldn't help hooking the other party's chin with his hands, "How can I hold on to such a defenseless appearance?"
Lin Xi smiled lightly and hooked his neck with her hands, then pushed her lips up, making a "tsk tsk" sound as her lips and tongue blended together.
Shang Jueheng felt that it was not enough, his hand passed through Lin Xi's armpit to hold down his head, and then crushed the slightly swollen lips of Lin Xi hard.
Under this action, Lin Xi could only raise his head and endure the violent and quick kiss from the other party like a storm.
In the end, Lin Xi leaned on Shang Jueheng almost out of breath. Seeing that Shang Jueheng seemed to make the next move, he stretched out his hands in a panic to push him away, but was pressed down on the big bed by the other party.
Shang Jueheng gently pulled his hand and put it on his lips, and after kissing his palm, he hugged him, "Go to sleep." He knew that Lin Xi had a lot of things recently, so why was he willing to continue to toss he.
When Lin Xi woke up, it was almost noon the next day, and Shang Jueheng must have gone out on something.After changing her clothes and washing up, it was not Qing Yun who served her, but Shi Xue, one of the two maids who followed from Merchant Fort, and her younger sister, Shi Yun, was completing other tasks.
Holding a bowl of porridge in his hand, he ate it one bite at a time after it cooled down.
While he was eating, Shi Xue reported from the side, "The owner of the castle has something important to deal with, so he left early in the morning. Mr. Xiao sent you a message from the music hall, saying that the person you are looking for has been found." , Qin Zhiyuan went to the music hall as scheduled after finishing his work. Shi Yun said that you can get ready to go to the theater."
Picking up a dumpling and putting it in a bowl, Lin Xi stretched her waist comfortably, but in the end she could only say with a stiff expression because of her sore back and back pain, "Let Xiao Jin ask Qin Zhiyuan to go to the music hall for a few more days, as for Shi Yun I think it should be almost time now for the scene of that scene."
After this scene, even if Lin Yuan didn't panic, she would never sit still. If she wanted to do something, the best starting point now was Qin Zhiyuan.
When he met Qin Zhiyuan on the road, he obviously hadn't made up his mind with Lin Yuan yet.Otherwise, when mentioning Lin Xi's initial wrong impression, his first feeling should not be embarrassment.Because the trust between them has not reached the most intuitive reaction that can make Qin Zhiyuan doubt.
If Qin Zhiyuan went to the music hall to attend the appointment without any scruples, Lin Xi could almost conclude that without the silk shop as a pedal, the relationship between Lin Yuan and Qin Zhiyuan was at a stagnant stage.
In the original world, Qin Zhiyuan was attracted by Lin Yuan's attitude of not yielding to the difference between his concubine and concubine.At that time, Lin Yuan put herself on the moral high ground. On the one hand, she used Lin Xi's innocence as a shield for herself, and on the other hand, she encouraged him to go further and further on the road of ignorance.
Although Master Lin doted on Lin Xi too much, he didn't completely hand over the business to his prodigal family, but handed it over to other bastards scatteredly.
So Lin Yuan started to rebel in order to get rid of her fate of being regarded as a business marriage. On the surface, she was targeting Lin Xi, but in fact she was just competing with other bastards.
Now that she still wants to show such a noble and unyielding gesture in front of Qin Zhiyuan, it may not be so easy.
She has no way to pick Lin Xi's thorn, even if she picks Qin Zhiyuan, she may not believe it, maybe she will suffer a hard loss before she picks the thorn.
Furthermore, she almost suppressed the other bastards, and she couldn't create an unyielding posture of being bullied and then resisting.
Qin Zhiyuan no longer had any reason to help her gain a foothold, let alone the desire to protect because of pity.If she still wanted to win Qin Zhiyuan over at this time, what other means could she use?
Lin Xi expressed some curiosity.
While thinking, Lin Xi had already walked from her own yard to the front yard. At this time, there was a large circle of servants watching the excitement outside the yard, and they all looked in the direction of the main hall.
Seeing him walking over unhurriedly, a few more courageous ones leaned in front of Lin Xi and whispered, "Second Young Master, why are you so leisurely? Don't you care if something big happens inside?"
Lin Xi blinked and asked suspiciously, "I'm in charge of what happens at home? I didn't cause any trouble."
His reaction made all the servants around laugh, "You should go in and have a look, it seems that Madam is also inside."
When Lin Xi walked into the hall, she saw Mr. Lin sitting in the front seat looking annoyed, and Liu Xihan was sitting in the other seat dignifiedly, her face was a little less gentle than usual Very angry.
Lin Chuan knelt in the hall, Lin Yuan and the second aunt stood aside, looking anxious.
Another beautiful figure in the hall was crying with her head down, when she saw Lin Xi walking beside him from the corner of her eye, she couldn't control herself and cried at his feet.Lin Xi helped her up distressedly, and then gently wiped the tears on her face with her sleeve, "Qingyun, what's wrong?"
Qingyun just knelt down and sobbed softly, without speaking.
Lin Xi looked up at his mother and his cheap father in a daze, "Father, mother? What happened?"
Liu Xihan raised her eyebrows, "Ask what your good brother has done!"
Lin Xi's expression became even more bewildered, as if the originally beautiful family had suddenly turned into a stalemate he didn't know.Seeing him like this, Master Lin also hated iron and steel, "You, you, besides doing business, you should also take good care of the maids in your yard."
Before Lin Xi could answer, Liu Xihan looked at Master Lin very dissatisfied, "Master, do you mean that Qingyun is all to blame for this matter? Qingyun is the maid I brought over from Liu's house. If her behavior If there's anything wrong, isn't it because my wife hasn't disciplined herself well?"
Seeing that her always gentle wife was really angry, Mr. Lin quickly followed her and explained, "Ma'am, that's not what I mean. Chuan'er has always done things properly, so how could he do such a stupid thing?"
Hearing Master Lin's words towards him, Lin Chuan also quickly explained, "Yes, it was this woman who seduced me, and I was caught off guard because of her drug. Dad, you have to make the decision for me! "
Listening to them distorting the facts word by word, and his good husband even favored them regardless of black and white for the sake of face.
If Mr. Liu hadn't come forward to deal with the magistrate's nephew last time, Lin Xi might not know what kind of punishment he would receive.
In the end, family affection and facts are not worth mentioning in Master Lin's heart. This man has always been measured by interests.
"Brother, Qingyun is not the kind of person you said, there must be some misunderstanding." Lin Xi looked at Lin Chuan anxiously and said.
Seeing this, Liu Xihan winked at the maid beside her, and the maid immediately understood.She came out in tears and said, "Second young master, you don't know something. Today Qingyun came to deliver new tea to my wife. I haven't seen her for a long time, so I wanted to find her. Then I, I Just..." The servant girl broke down in tears when she said this.
Lin Xi saw that she seemed unable to continue, so she walked to the door and waved to the crowd watching the excitement, "Just do whatever you want, there are so many excitement to watch."
Seeing that everyone at the door had left, the servant girl cast a grateful look at Lin Xi, "I saw the eldest young master pressing Qingyun on the grass next to her, and Qingyun's clothes were disheveled when she was struggling... Tell me, she will How else to behave? Not only Qingyun, but also many little girls in the mansion have been treated lightly by the young master, if you don't believe me, I can find them one by one to testify."
After hearing this, Lin Xi just walked over in silence and helped Qing Yun up.
For a while, the atmosphere in the hall was a bit stalemate, Liu Xihan immediately set fire to this matter when she saw this, "Master, Qingyun is the big maid in Xi'er's yard, if she does something wrong, it's not Xi'er who lost it." Er'er's face? If someone wants to pour dirty water on her, wouldn't it be the same as splashing on Xi'er? Are you so partial to the second wife!"
Master Lin also felt that he was a bit too partial to the second wife, and he didn't have nothing about Lin Chuan's bastard outside, so he could only comfort the anxious Liu Xichen, "Madam, don't be angry with yourself, if this matter can be peaceful Wouldn't it be good for everyone to solve it?"
"Peaceful solution? He didn't take Xi'er seriously at all, and you know Xi'er's heart. He can bear it and don't say anything. Do I, a mother, just watch my son being wronged and say nothing? I doubt that Lin Chuan said that kind of stupid thing about the magistrate's nephew last time! But I didn't go into it at the time, and Xi'er knelt down for hours in vain to defend his good brother!"
The second aunt couldn't help but want to refute after hearing what she said, but she was stopped by Lin Yuan. Everyone could see that Master Lin was partial to the second room.If the second room doesn't care about the occasion at this time, it will only arouse Master Lin's resentment.
Lin Chuan had no choice but to accept this matter, he was the one who dared to even think about Lin Xi's maid.It doesn't matter if you move, but you dare to do such a dirty thing under the blue sky and broad daylight.
At this time, the second room is making a fuss, which will only make Mr. Lin unable to step down.
Master Lin also knew that although Lin Xi was spoiled by him, he was indeed much better than Lin Chuan in terms of xinxing.
What surprised him was that Lin Xi had made a lot of progress recently. He didn't expect that the silk shop could make some achievements. On the other hand, the Lin Yuan sister and brother were somewhat disappointed.
First, the pawn shop was losing money, and now Lin Chuan has made such a disgraceful incident again. He held his temples and said very tiredly, "Chuan'er, you should stay in the yard and reflect on me this month, and you are not allowed to go out!"
"Father!" Lin Chuan wanted to say something, but his sister gave him a hard look, and could only admit his mistake, "I know I was wrong, and I will reflect on it so that my father won't worry about it."
Lin Yuan felt a little annoyed that she had such pig teammates. Just confinement for a month is nothing at all, as long as the business in hand has not stopped, Master Lin made it clear that he was giving them a step down.
If Lin Chuan called for injustice at this time, and Lin Xi and the others brought all the girls whom he had treated lightly to testify one by one, then this matter might not be resolved by grounding.
Lin Chuan saw that Lin Xi was still calm after returning so long, so he thought Qingyun didn't dare to reveal this matter.
In fact, they dug a hole here and waited for him to fall.To put it bluntly, one who can control one's lust and desires can't catch anyone at all with this almost mentally handicapped trap.
No matter how stupid Lin Xi is, she shouldn't take the risk to provoke him when he has the backing of Shang Jueheng and the silk shop.
With a fluke mentality, he wanted to be an opponent with Lin Xi, but Lin Chuan was still a little tender.
Therefore, Lin Xi's opponent needs too much improvement in terms of EQ and IQ.
To paraphrase a popular phrase in a certain world, it can only be: full of slots.
Even if an order is given to investigate, there will not be much progress in a short time.When taking Lin Xi away from Linzhou, Shang Jueheng also left some people in Linzhou to ensure the safety of the scholar and keep an eye on the movements of the Lin family.
On the contrary, the Lin family didn't make any big moves. The Lin Yuan siblings became much better because of the incident with the magistrate's nephew.If you should please Master Lin, you should please, and if you should study business, you should study hard.
Lin Yuan, as the heroine of this world, still has some intelligence after all. Some of the business routines she used before time travel successfully won the favor of Master Lin.
No matter where she is, as long as she has a clear mind and the experience of living a whole life, it is relatively simple compared to other boudoir women.Moreover, Master Lin is not a patriarchal generation. Since Lin Yuan has such an idea and can make achievements, how can he stop it?
After all, he is a businessman. Compared with some old-fashioned ideas, interests are far more important than other things.
Lin Xi felt that his thoughts seemed to be drifting a little far away, and the problem at hand appeared on the scholar.The female bandit has not tired of forcing the scholar for three years, which is enough to explain the degree of persistence of the other party, and one can imagine how furious she would be when she learned that the scholar was robbed.
At the same time, a small group of unidentified bandits appeared around Linzhou in the past few months, and at the same time, several unidentified people were camping near the music hall.
Shang Jueheng saw that he kept frowning in thought, couldn't help but raised his hand to put on his brow, and stroked it carefully.Seeing the other party's clear eyes looking over, he said seriously, "I really hope you don't know all these things, and let me help you block all the wind and snow."
Maybe it's because Lin Xi has gotten used to him being serious and indifferent to the outside world these days, but treats him like a clingy loyal dog.For a moment, he was not used to the change of the other party. His serious appearance of talking about love made his heart skip a beat, and his face also had a tendency to become hot.
Because Lin Xi lowered his head slightly, Shang Jueheng didn't see any abnormality in him, but continued with a calm tone and attitude, "You are calm enough and have your own thoughts, I shouldn't restrain you but I selfishly hope that you To live in a world that depends only on me."
In fact, Shang Jueheng was very surprised that he had such a thought. In the past few years, he had never had such an obsessive thought about a person or a thing.
In the ten years since he took over the Merchant Fort, he has been indifferent and self-sufficient, and he has behaved both righteously and evilly.Jiang Hu's evaluation of him is also mixed, but he doesn't care.
In terms of love, there is even a blank, unless the pain is relieved.
Concubines like Ji wanted to leave or stay. He never interfered, let alone forced anyone.
Lin Xi is like a light source appearing in his heart, causing a seed in his heart that has been hidden for many years to suddenly break out of the ground and gradually take root and sprout.
I just don't know where there is a deviation. The seed did not bloom smoothly but grew into a vine. The vine slowly stretched until it touched the light source.
But in the end, the vines were only vaguely wrapped around the light source, forming an indestructible cage.
Shang Jueheng took Lin Xi into his arms, but he didn't let him see the bottomless darkness in his eyes.
Because the schedule was delayed again and again, half a month had passed by the time Lin Xi and the others returned to Linzhou.The temperature is also warmer as it gets closer to the south, so there is no need to wear a fox fur cloak all the time to keep warm.
After entering Linzhou city gate, Qin Zhiyuan left first due to business matters.Before leaving, I confirmed with the Xiao Jin brothers and sisters where they stayed, and I will visit them again when I have time.
And Xiao Jin only said that he was going to seek refuge in a music hall opened by a friend.
Qin Zhiyuan promised that he would talk to them after finishing the matter.
Before returning home, Lin Xi went to Liu's Mansion first. When Mr. Liu saw him coming back, his expression was worried and angry.
Lin Xi hurried forward and took the old man's arm, and said obediently, "Grandpa, don't be angry, it's Xi'er who went out without telling you. It was because the schedule was a little urgent at that time, so... "
"You!" Mr. Liu wanted to scold, but he looked at his grandson with distressed expression, "It's not wrong to go out and see the world more, and grandpa doesn't object to your association with people in the world, but you should go home anyway." Just say it, how can there be any reason to leave home after throwing down a letter?"
"It's Xi'er who is wrong, can't Xi'er apologize to you?"
After coaxing for a long time, Lin Xi calmed down Mr. Liu's anger, and then explained that Liu Wangcheng was delayed by something and would not be able to return until several days later.
Lin Xi got into Shang Jueheng's carriage after leaving Liufu, and went back to Lin's house.
Unlike waiting outside Liu's mansion, Shang Jueheng personally escorted Lin Xi back to the Lin family, and he didn't care about the panic caused by the sudden visit of the Lin family.
Shang Jueheng has the air of a quack, with the black cloak casually draped over his shoulders, and the sword in his hand, even a non-jianghu like Master Lin can tell that it is not extraordinary.
It's just that Master Lin always feels that this imposing man looks familiar, but if he has seen such a person, how can he forget it.
I didn't think about it any more.
Then, when eating at night, Master Lin's expression was a little unsightly.During the day, when he heard Lin Xi talk about the origin of this man, became friends with him, and even traveled around together, his mind became alive.
As simple as that, Shang Jueheng became a distinguished guest of the Lin family.
After all, with his reputation in Jianghu, the business routes and business contacts he can involve are not comparable to a small businessman like Master Lin.If you can use this to hook up with Jianghu's business, it will be a good deal.
It's a pity that the owner of Shangbao is indifferent and doesn't like oil and salt.Master Lin tried to strike up a conversation with the other party many times, but ended in failure.
At the dinner table, Liu Xihan held Lin Xi's hand distressedly, and continued to pick up vegetables for him.
When Lin Xi didn't know how many dishes he picked up and how much he ate, he stopped Liu Xihan from continuing to pick up vegetables with his hands.
She was a little stunned for a moment, and looked up at the expressionless man, and when she looked at Lin Xi's bitter face, she suddenly understood.
She shook her head and said, "Mother is so confused, you should have something light to eat after a long journey. I drank this bowl of soup, which was boiled by my mother after staring at the kitchen for two hours, but Don't waste it."
The three of them enjoyed themselves happily, Master Lin and Lin Yuan's mother and second concubine were also sitting together.Lin Yuan's gaze was on Shang Jueheng, secretly admiring that this man is really top-notch.
To describe it in modern terms, it is simply the type that makes people stunned. With a strong background in martial arts, it seems that as long as he loves someone, he will absolutely love her for the rest of his life.
She originally thought that Qin Zhiyuan was the man with the best qualifications she had seen so far, but Shang Jueheng appeared so unexpectedly, and then she couldn't help but waver.
But the most difficult thing is that the other party is Lin Xi's friend...
Here, Lin Yuan's heart was surging, but there was still a very awkward atmosphere at the dinner table.Lin Yuan's mother has been gaining momentum recently. Seeing Master Lin's dissatisfied face, she decided to help her change the atmosphere. After thinking about it, she raised her glass and said, "This chivalrous man, Xi'er is spoiled at home. Lord, I don't know how much trouble I have caused you outside, I am here to offer you a toast."
As soon as she finished speaking, there was an instant chill. Even Lin Yuan didn't expect her mother to say such inappropriate words.Maybe she wanted to express that her family dotes on Lin Xi very much, and by the way raise Shang Jueheng.
But it's not appropriate for her to say this, not to mention that their relationship with Liu Xihan is not good enough to say such a thing instead of their mother.
What's more, Liu Xihan didn't feel that her son was capricious at all. Instead, she felt sorry for the other party's hardships outside. Isn't this a slap in the face?
The second aunt also seemed to feel that the atmosphere was instantly stiff. Liu Xihan sat and ate the food with a calm expression, and the upright master——Shang Jueheng, seemed not to accept her glass of wine.
Lin Xi lowered his head and secretly laughed, but he was still playing a fool after all, so he said generously to the steps, "Second Aunt, I didn't cause trouble for Big Brother Shang, it's fun outside."
Shang Jueheng raised his eyes and glanced at Second Aunt Tai, his eyes were cold.He picked up the wine glass in front of him and leaned forward slightly, then said "he's fine" with no expression on his face, and drank it down in one gulp.
The second aunt smiled awkwardly, took back the cup and took a small sip, and didn't dare to speak again.
Master Lin also found a breakthrough in the topic, and said with a fake cough, "You have to go home no matter how fun you are, you know how worried your mother was when she received your letter. This time, go home and spend time with her, and you should take it easy Let’s learn the business of home.”
"Father, why don't you let me run the silk shop on West Street?" Since his cheap father said it so casually, wouldn't he feel sorry for him if he didn't say his request?
Master Lin didn't feel much about this request, but asked with some doubts, "Why do you suddenly think of the silk shop on West Street?"
"Grandpa asked me to learn more about the silk business. I'm reminded of the silk shop on West Street."
Master Lin pondered for a while, the business of the silk shop on West Street went from bad to worse.And now he puts almost all of his focus on Puzhou, and Linzhou is basically handed over to Lin Chuan.
The silk shop on West Street was originally promised to be taken care of by Lin Yuan, but he glanced at Shang Jueheng who was next to Lin Xi.
Immediately, she readily agreed to Lin Xi's request. As for Lin Yuan, she could just give her a try at a pawnshop afterwards.
After all, in Master Lin's eyes, a pawn shop is far more valuable than a silk shop.
But Lin Yuan hated her so much that she wanted to use the silk shop to get closer to Qin Zhiyuan.And in her opinion, the pawn shop is just a store of value, but the development of the silk shop is considerable.
The original plan to kill two birds with one stone was destroyed by Lin Xi, how could Lin Yuan not hate it?But she couldn't help it, not to mention that her father was optimistic about Shang Jueheng, even she had to change her plan slightly.
After dinner, Lin Xi took Shang Jueheng back to the yard. Qingyun had heard that her young master had returned, and had been waiting at the gate of the yard early.When she saw Lin Xi, her eyes filled with water had already filled with tears, "Master..."
The girl Qingyun has always been his right-hand man, and she has a straightforward temper, but he has never seen her look so aggrieved. He took out a handkerchief and put it in Qingyun's hand and asked softly, "What's the matter, I'm not here When did someone bully you?"
Maybe it was because Lin Xi's tone was too gentle, Qingyun's originally suppressed tears fell in a rush.She knelt down in front of Lin Xi with a plop, her hands tightly clutching the hem of her clothes, "I beg the young master to let Qingyun be the master!"
Only then did Lin Xi realize that Lin Chuan had moved Qingyun's mind while he was away. Qingyun had followed him since he was a child to take care of his daily life, which was almost equal to the existence of the big maid in the yard.And at the beginning, he also promised that if Qingyun was willing, he could go out of the house to find a good man to live with at any time.
This Lin Chuan almost tarnished Qingyun's innocence, and even threatened her not to sue Lin Xi, or marry her to that bastard Wang Hua.
Sitting on a chair carved with pear blossom wood, Lin Xi rested his cheeks in deep thought, "You can do whatever you want, and you don't need to worry about anything. I want to see what kind of storm Lin Chuan can create."
Hearing this, Qingyun finally smiled with red eyes.She knew that the young master was hiding his clumsiness a few days ago, so she just wanted to find ways to avoid Lin Chuan. Fortunately, he didn't dare to do anything to her in the young master's yard blatantly.
Now Lin Xi's high-spirited appearance is like a reassurance, so that she doesn't have to worry all the time.
After that, things became more simple and rude. On the surface, Lin Xi ran a silk shop on West Street. The experience he learned from Mr. Liu made him very smooth and he negotiated a few big deals.The children brought back from Tianluo Street were also arranged to watch the shop and keep accounts at the silk shop.
On the contrary, Lin Yuan's side was not going well. All the foreshadowing she made was on the silk shop, including getting close to Qin Zhiyuan and relying on the other party's experience to help her run the business.
Now, because the silk shop did not go smoothly, Lin Yuan's mentality suddenly collapsed. She was so angry that she lost sight of the pawnshop at the time of pawning, and the pawn shop suddenly lost hundreds of taels of silver.
The amount of these several hundred taels of silver is not large, but compared to Lin Xi who brought silk back to life and even started to make a profit, it is like directly telling others that she is not as good as that brat!
Secretly, Lin Xi is also taking care of the music hall, and now the music hall is under the care of Xiao Jin.Xiao Yu would help with some simple things, and she became much more cheerful.Now Xi Chengyun is in charge of the music hall, and there are also a few girls performing arts, Xiao Jin and scholars write songs from time to time.
Therefore, the atmosphere in the music hall is quite good, and there are many guards around the music hall who don't look easy to mess with. Those who want to make trouble or threaten the girls almost have no good end.
For a while, this music hall became the biggest after-dinner topic in Linzhou. For example, who is the owner of the music hall? Not only is he able to invite Xi Chengyun, but also he can occupy a place in this noisy Linzhou...
Some literati and elegant guests became regular visitors to the music hall, and later some young masters who were good at music would come to the music hall to sit and drink.
At this time, in the backyard of the music hall, Shang Jueheng stood in front of Xi Chengyun and the scholar with his hands behind his back.He was so powerful that the scholar didn't dare to look up at him no matter how many times he saw him.
Shang Jueheng took out something from his sleeve and handed it to the scholar, "Do you recognize this thing?"
The scholar raised his head cautiously, and took a step back with a pale face after only one glance.Almost staggered and fell, Xi Chengyun on the side supported his arm worriedly, "Zhou Lang, what's wrong with you?"
As if recalling some painful memories, the scholar pressed his temple and said with difficulty, "This is that woman's thing, and I will never forget it in my life!"
Then, as if thinking of something, he suddenly grabbed Xi Chengyun's hand, "Yun'er, the matter between me and that female bandit is a matter of necessity, trust me!"
Xi Chengyun is such an intelligent person, how could he not be able to tell whether this man has her in his heart?She knew that the scholar had many scars on his body in order to escape, and he was even willing to hide behind this music hall in order to live a peaceful life with her.
After Shang Jueheng was sure, he gave the jade pendant to Lin San behind him, and motioned him to deal with it.After Lin San took the jade pendant, he hesitated, "Is there really no need to report this matter to the master?"
After Shang Jueheng read the letter from the young master of Ruyi Building, the hostility in his eyes increased, and he did not hide his murderous air, "You can deal with this matter well, and there is no need to let such meaningless things go away." He's worried."
Lin San's heart trembled, "Yes."
When Lin Xi took Xiao Yu's hand and walked to the back hall, he saw Xi Chengyun and the scholar standing next to each other, and Shang Jueheng's back was turned to him, which seemed a little strange.
Seeing him, Lin San just bowed with his sword in his arms, and then left directly.
Shang Jueheng turned around and looked at him with gentle eyes. He glanced at the hand he was holding with Xiao Yu, and then Xiao Yu was scared and hid behind Lin Xi.
Lin Xi turned around helplessly, and said softly, "Let Shixue take you to eat snacks, okay? I brought them from the small kitchen in the Lin Mansion, and they are all your favorites."
As soon as Xiao Yu's eyes lit up, he nodded slightly, and let the maid lead her away.
As soon as Xiao Yu left, Shang Jueheng immediately pulled him to his side, "Have you been putting too much attention on others recently, huh?"
Lin Xi smiled, instead of answering his question directly, he asked directly, "What were you talking about just now?"
The scholar's complexion was not very good, and it was not quite right for Lin San to walk so fast, a bit like running away with a guilty conscience.
Shang Jueheng took out a letter from his jacket and handed it to him without changing his expression, "Brother Han wrote, they have arrived in Linzhou, and Liu Wangcheng's injury is almost healed, so don't worry."
"It's good that little uncle is fine." Lin Xi raised his eyebrows and glanced at him before opening the letter to read.
Xi Chengyun was shocked by Shang Jueheng's change in front of Lin Xi. She only learned tonight that the female bandit learned that the scholar was rescued because of her benefactor, so she bought the killer to stop them on the way.
As for Shang Jueheng, it seems that he intends to solve it directly, and he does not intend to tell Engong about it...
But what a sensitive person Engong is... She didn't dare to continue thinking about it, and hurriedly left with the scholar.
After all the people in the way left, Shang Jueheng held his waist and whispered in his ear, "I'll take you to a place."
Then they leaped up to the roof with their feet, and the sound of the wind blew past Lin Xi's ears. It didn't take long for them to be in a dark forest.Shang Jueheng led him to jump lightly between the branches, and finally sat down on a thick branch.
When Lin Xi opened her eyes, she saw a bright moon hanging in the dark night sky. The place where they were located was a cliff, and a tall tree stood alone on the cliff.They were sitting on the branches of this tree, and the scenery outside the cliff was unobstructed.
He sat sideways on Shang Jueheng's lap, leaning against his chest and listening to the steady and powerful heartbeat, as if the world was in his hands.
Shang Jueheng bit Lin Xi's earlobe lightly, and said in a low voice, "Do you think you spend too much time on others? So should you make it up to me?"
The dexterous tongue gently slid across the sensitive area around the ears, causing Lin Xi to turn his head away unconsciously, and the fair skin on the side of his neck was stained with a faint blush.
The other party's hand had already untied his belt and reached into his clothes. Lin Xi thought that he had really been left out during this period of time, so he let his hand keep lighting the fire on his body.
Shang Jueheng didn't stop moving his hands, and still whispered in his ear, "Do you know what I want to do now? I want to make you unable to close your legs under the moonlight."
He squinted his eyes and could almost imagine how perfect Lin Xi's emotional face and fair legs would be under the radiance of the moonlight.And all of this can only belong to him.
Lin Xi felt that he was really out of shape. At the beginning, he really thought about how exciting it would be to have sex with the Lord God in the woods.But when it actually happened, he wasn't big enough to fully accept it, okay?
The excitement of being in the wild made him suppress his voice, and his heartbeat echoed heavily in his ears.
Because of the posture problem, when Lin Xi returned to his bed, his waist was sore and his legs were weak, especially in a certain overused place, which was basically unconscious.
Lying on the bed, Lin Xi couldn't help covering his blushing face, he was getting more and more bottomless...
When Shang Jueheng walked in, he saw Lin Xi's appearance, smiled and walked over to take his hand off.
Looking at the moist eyes of the other party, he couldn't help hooking the other party's chin with his hands, "How can I hold on to such a defenseless appearance?"
Lin Xi smiled lightly and hooked his neck with her hands, then pushed her lips up, making a "tsk tsk" sound as her lips and tongue blended together.
Shang Jueheng felt that it was not enough, his hand passed through Lin Xi's armpit to hold down his head, and then crushed the slightly swollen lips of Lin Xi hard.
Under this action, Lin Xi could only raise his head and endure the violent and quick kiss from the other party like a storm.
In the end, Lin Xi leaned on Shang Jueheng almost out of breath. Seeing that Shang Jueheng seemed to make the next move, he stretched out his hands in a panic to push him away, but was pressed down on the big bed by the other party.
Shang Jueheng gently pulled his hand and put it on his lips, and after kissing his palm, he hugged him, "Go to sleep." He knew that Lin Xi had a lot of things recently, so why was he willing to continue to toss he.
When Lin Xi woke up, it was almost noon the next day, and Shang Jueheng must have gone out on something.After changing her clothes and washing up, it was not Qing Yun who served her, but Shi Xue, one of the two maids who followed from Merchant Fort, and her younger sister, Shi Yun, was completing other tasks.
Holding a bowl of porridge in his hand, he ate it one bite at a time after it cooled down.
While he was eating, Shi Xue reported from the side, "The owner of the castle has something important to deal with, so he left early in the morning. Mr. Xiao sent you a message from the music hall, saying that the person you are looking for has been found." , Qin Zhiyuan went to the music hall as scheduled after finishing his work. Shi Yun said that you can get ready to go to the theater."
Picking up a dumpling and putting it in a bowl, Lin Xi stretched her waist comfortably, but in the end she could only say with a stiff expression because of her sore back and back pain, "Let Xiao Jin ask Qin Zhiyuan to go to the music hall for a few more days, as for Shi Yun I think it should be almost time now for the scene of that scene."
After this scene, even if Lin Yuan didn't panic, she would never sit still. If she wanted to do something, the best starting point now was Qin Zhiyuan.
When he met Qin Zhiyuan on the road, he obviously hadn't made up his mind with Lin Yuan yet.Otherwise, when mentioning Lin Xi's initial wrong impression, his first feeling should not be embarrassment.Because the trust between them has not reached the most intuitive reaction that can make Qin Zhiyuan doubt.
If Qin Zhiyuan went to the music hall to attend the appointment without any scruples, Lin Xi could almost conclude that without the silk shop as a pedal, the relationship between Lin Yuan and Qin Zhiyuan was at a stagnant stage.
In the original world, Qin Zhiyuan was attracted by Lin Yuan's attitude of not yielding to the difference between his concubine and concubine.At that time, Lin Yuan put herself on the moral high ground. On the one hand, she used Lin Xi's innocence as a shield for herself, and on the other hand, she encouraged him to go further and further on the road of ignorance.
Although Master Lin doted on Lin Xi too much, he didn't completely hand over the business to his prodigal family, but handed it over to other bastards scatteredly.
So Lin Yuan started to rebel in order to get rid of her fate of being regarded as a business marriage. On the surface, she was targeting Lin Xi, but in fact she was just competing with other bastards.
Now that she still wants to show such a noble and unyielding gesture in front of Qin Zhiyuan, it may not be so easy.
She has no way to pick Lin Xi's thorn, even if she picks Qin Zhiyuan, she may not believe it, maybe she will suffer a hard loss before she picks the thorn.
Furthermore, she almost suppressed the other bastards, and she couldn't create an unyielding posture of being bullied and then resisting.
Qin Zhiyuan no longer had any reason to help her gain a foothold, let alone the desire to protect because of pity.If she still wanted to win Qin Zhiyuan over at this time, what other means could she use?
Lin Xi expressed some curiosity.
While thinking, Lin Xi had already walked from her own yard to the front yard. At this time, there was a large circle of servants watching the excitement outside the yard, and they all looked in the direction of the main hall.
Seeing him walking over unhurriedly, a few more courageous ones leaned in front of Lin Xi and whispered, "Second Young Master, why are you so leisurely? Don't you care if something big happens inside?"
Lin Xi blinked and asked suspiciously, "I'm in charge of what happens at home? I didn't cause any trouble."
His reaction made all the servants around laugh, "You should go in and have a look, it seems that Madam is also inside."
When Lin Xi walked into the hall, she saw Mr. Lin sitting in the front seat looking annoyed, and Liu Xihan was sitting in the other seat dignifiedly, her face was a little less gentle than usual Very angry.
Lin Chuan knelt in the hall, Lin Yuan and the second aunt stood aside, looking anxious.
Another beautiful figure in the hall was crying with her head down, when she saw Lin Xi walking beside him from the corner of her eye, she couldn't control herself and cried at his feet.Lin Xi helped her up distressedly, and then gently wiped the tears on her face with her sleeve, "Qingyun, what's wrong?"
Qingyun just knelt down and sobbed softly, without speaking.
Lin Xi looked up at his mother and his cheap father in a daze, "Father, mother? What happened?"
Liu Xihan raised her eyebrows, "Ask what your good brother has done!"
Lin Xi's expression became even more bewildered, as if the originally beautiful family had suddenly turned into a stalemate he didn't know.Seeing him like this, Master Lin also hated iron and steel, "You, you, besides doing business, you should also take good care of the maids in your yard."
Before Lin Xi could answer, Liu Xihan looked at Master Lin very dissatisfied, "Master, do you mean that Qingyun is all to blame for this matter? Qingyun is the maid I brought over from Liu's house. If her behavior If there's anything wrong, isn't it because my wife hasn't disciplined herself well?"
Seeing that her always gentle wife was really angry, Mr. Lin quickly followed her and explained, "Ma'am, that's not what I mean. Chuan'er has always done things properly, so how could he do such a stupid thing?"
Hearing Master Lin's words towards him, Lin Chuan also quickly explained, "Yes, it was this woman who seduced me, and I was caught off guard because of her drug. Dad, you have to make the decision for me! "
Listening to them distorting the facts word by word, and his good husband even favored them regardless of black and white for the sake of face.
If Mr. Liu hadn't come forward to deal with the magistrate's nephew last time, Lin Xi might not know what kind of punishment he would receive.
In the end, family affection and facts are not worth mentioning in Master Lin's heart. This man has always been measured by interests.
"Brother, Qingyun is not the kind of person you said, there must be some misunderstanding." Lin Xi looked at Lin Chuan anxiously and said.
Seeing this, Liu Xihan winked at the maid beside her, and the maid immediately understood.She came out in tears and said, "Second young master, you don't know something. Today Qingyun came to deliver new tea to my wife. I haven't seen her for a long time, so I wanted to find her. Then I, I Just..." The servant girl broke down in tears when she said this.
Lin Xi saw that she seemed unable to continue, so she walked to the door and waved to the crowd watching the excitement, "Just do whatever you want, there are so many excitement to watch."
Seeing that everyone at the door had left, the servant girl cast a grateful look at Lin Xi, "I saw the eldest young master pressing Qingyun on the grass next to her, and Qingyun's clothes were disheveled when she was struggling... Tell me, she will How else to behave? Not only Qingyun, but also many little girls in the mansion have been treated lightly by the young master, if you don't believe me, I can find them one by one to testify."
After hearing this, Lin Xi just walked over in silence and helped Qing Yun up.
For a while, the atmosphere in the hall was a bit stalemate, Liu Xihan immediately set fire to this matter when she saw this, "Master, Qingyun is the big maid in Xi'er's yard, if she does something wrong, it's not Xi'er who lost it." Er'er's face? If someone wants to pour dirty water on her, wouldn't it be the same as splashing on Xi'er? Are you so partial to the second wife!"
Master Lin also felt that he was a bit too partial to the second wife, and he didn't have nothing about Lin Chuan's bastard outside, so he could only comfort the anxious Liu Xichen, "Madam, don't be angry with yourself, if this matter can be peaceful Wouldn't it be good for everyone to solve it?"
"Peaceful solution? He didn't take Xi'er seriously at all, and you know Xi'er's heart. He can bear it and don't say anything. Do I, a mother, just watch my son being wronged and say nothing? I doubt that Lin Chuan said that kind of stupid thing about the magistrate's nephew last time! But I didn't go into it at the time, and Xi'er knelt down for hours in vain to defend his good brother!"
The second aunt couldn't help but want to refute after hearing what she said, but she was stopped by Lin Yuan. Everyone could see that Master Lin was partial to the second room.If the second room doesn't care about the occasion at this time, it will only arouse Master Lin's resentment.
Lin Chuan had no choice but to accept this matter, he was the one who dared to even think about Lin Xi's maid.It doesn't matter if you move, but you dare to do such a dirty thing under the blue sky and broad daylight.
At this time, the second room is making a fuss, which will only make Mr. Lin unable to step down.
Master Lin also knew that although Lin Xi was spoiled by him, he was indeed much better than Lin Chuan in terms of xinxing.
What surprised him was that Lin Xi had made a lot of progress recently. He didn't expect that the silk shop could make some achievements. On the other hand, the Lin Yuan sister and brother were somewhat disappointed.
First, the pawn shop was losing money, and now Lin Chuan has made such a disgraceful incident again. He held his temples and said very tiredly, "Chuan'er, you should stay in the yard and reflect on me this month, and you are not allowed to go out!"
"Father!" Lin Chuan wanted to say something, but his sister gave him a hard look, and could only admit his mistake, "I know I was wrong, and I will reflect on it so that my father won't worry about it."
Lin Yuan felt a little annoyed that she had such pig teammates. Just confinement for a month is nothing at all, as long as the business in hand has not stopped, Master Lin made it clear that he was giving them a step down.
If Lin Chuan called for injustice at this time, and Lin Xi and the others brought all the girls whom he had treated lightly to testify one by one, then this matter might not be resolved by grounding.
Lin Chuan saw that Lin Xi was still calm after returning so long, so he thought Qingyun didn't dare to reveal this matter.
In fact, they dug a hole here and waited for him to fall.To put it bluntly, one who can control one's lust and desires can't catch anyone at all with this almost mentally handicapped trap.
No matter how stupid Lin Xi is, she shouldn't take the risk to provoke him when he has the backing of Shang Jueheng and the silk shop.
With a fluke mentality, he wanted to be an opponent with Lin Xi, but Lin Chuan was still a little tender.
Therefore, Lin Xi's opponent needs too much improvement in terms of EQ and IQ.
To paraphrase a popular phrase in a certain world, it can only be: full of slots.
