Old things in Nancheng

At the beginning, Wang Zimo's departure was silent. Lin Zhilan and Chen Wangshu were the only people who saw her off. The ten-mile long pavilion was extremely cold. She was just a speck of dust and was not remembered by anyone.But now, her return is by no means as simple as when she left.

The reaction of the Wang family village and the undercurrents in the other courtyard could not affect Lin Zhilan. The current situation will not be more difficult than before. Now that the most difficult days have passed, the two of them will work together to advance and retreat together. , Water comes to cover, what else can defeat them.

Lin Zhilan was in a good mood. Caiyue Bixia took care of her and changed into new clothes. She combed her high-cloud bun, tapped her red lips, and Luo Dai painted her eyebrows. A pair of big watery eyes blinked, silent affection fluctuated, and the lotus flower The modified cheongsam with dark patterns, with embroidered silver ripples shining on the moon-white background, made Lin Zhilan even more white and delicate.

"Miss, don't say that the officials will be stunned when they see you, even those of us who serve you every day are blinded by it." Caiyue praised.

"Although this servant has never seen the world, I dare to say that we are the only ladies in Yanguan County who are good-looking." Bixia echoed.

"This old slave is in Xingyuan Mansion, and I have heard from my old man that my young master went out to socialize and do business, and never entered the brothel with others. The old man of my family even taught young master, my lady, guess what happened to young master? " Zhang Pozi laughed.

"What do you say? It's good that she doesn't dislike it." Lin Zhilan was full of smiles, and looked at the mirror again and again.

"Dislike? What man would hate a lady when he sees her! Unless it's a eunuch. Our young master said that the lady is ten thousand times prettier than the girls in the building. The difference between clouds and mud, why bother to spend money to make my eyes suffer."

When Lin Zhilan heard this, the corners of her mouth could not help but curl up, and she said mischievously: "She is used to being poor, and she is reluctant to part with the money. If it is free, see if she wants it."

"Miss, you can be ashamed. Later, if the young master really brings a woman back, let's see if you are in a hurry."

Lin Zhilan's eyes dimmed slightly, and as she gently stroked the scar with her slender hands, the joy in her heart also faded a bit.This scar has faded a lot, but it is very long, like the Great Rift Valley on Earth, and it will not be ignored in space.But besides sighing, what else could she do?

Seeing this, Mrs. Zhang and the others also felt it was a pity that such a beautiful woman had an extra scar. Although it didn't ruin the person, it was also detrimental to the image.

"Lady, it's easy to find a priceless treasure, but it's rare to have a lover. Don't think about the past, our young master is definitely not that kind of ruthless person."

"Does she dare?" Lin Zhilan's face was full of arrogance, and then she regained her good mood.

Dressed up, the butler was waiting outside, and Mrs. Zhang came to report that it was almost time, so Lin Zhilan carried the pink and jade-carved Bao'er, the beautiful Yan'er, and a group of servants, and went to the pier in a mighty manner.

The wharf in Yanguan County has always been extremely prosperous, not to mention the merchant ships traveling north and south, even the official ships passing by Lin'an Prefecture.The coolies are braving the scorching sun and sweating, contributing to the economy of Yanguan County. There are also many feet helping merchants find business, and there are countless people like Lin Zhilan who pick up the boat.

Today's pier is extremely lively, Wang Shun rented an open space early on, set up a colorful stage, and invited the girls in the building to perform dances on the stage. Under the stage, there were two lion dancers. Squat up and jump up, majestic.

Lin Zhilan was very satisfied with such a lively scene, but her family was not the only focus, or it was not the focus at all.

Not far away, there is another colorful platform, which is five times bigger than the one of Wang's family. The girl on it is not nameless, but a well-known oiran in Yanguan County.These are nothing, nearly 200 people gathered in the audience, each nobleman in silk congratulated a middle-aged man with the appearance of a squire, and behind the middle-aged man stood a row of domestic slaves, each holding a sign in their hands , What century-old family, Ding Weixiucai, Wushen Juren, the family of hundreds of philanthropists and so on.

Wang Shun had good eyesight, looked at Lin Zhilan, and said: "Lady, this is the Jiang family in Shoucun. The young master never told the family, but I heard from my father that the eldest son of the Jiang family and our young master We are good friends in Prison City Camp, and we will come back together this time."

Lin Zhilan nodded.She has not been in Yanguan County for a day or two. Of course, she has heard of the Jiang family in Shou Village. It is the most noble family in Yanguan County. After the lawsuit, the scenes of his return today will not be the only ones.

Wang Shun knew a lot of things from his father, including why Wang Zimo stayed in Xiangyang and did not return, but these things are not something he can talk about as a housekeeper, but after he knew it, he became more determined to follow Wang Zimo, and began to treat Wang Zimo more. The new master took it seriously.

A life-threatening friendship is hard to change, and going to the Jiang family is more interesting than going back to the Wang family to fight for family property.

It was noon, the sun was very poisonous, and the people waiting on the pier were sweating. Although Lin Zhilan and Bao'er had servants holding umbrellas, they were still sweating profusely. Spending can't attract Wang Zimo's attention.

The people on the boat couldn't sit still when they arrived in Jiaxing, and they kept walking back and forth on the deck. Among them, Wang Zimo and Jiang Shangpei were probably the most cowardly. The hull of the boat swayed slowly, just like their hearts. Can't stop, anxious and unbearable.

"Brother, will your family come to pick you up?" Wang Zimo was a little flustered, looking for something to say.

"It's hard to say. Although I delivered the letter, I'm not returning home after all. I'm afraid that if I go back, I will embarrass my father and the old man, and make the Jiang family look down." The children of the rich family have a strong sense of belonging and honor.

"Brother, where is this? Master Jiang knows that you can go back safely, so he must be comforted by Lao Huai." Wang Zimo comforted, she really didn't think it was a problem.

The complicated mood made people not have the desire to chat, Jiang Shangpei looked at the clear river, and the scenery on both sides gradually became familiar, and the worries in his heart became heavier.

In the distance, you can already see the wharf of Yanguan County. The high platform is like a lighthouse in the dark sea. What the heart points to, all the previous anxiety disappeared at this moment. Some of them are just about to reunite with their relatives. Joy and emotion.

Years of prison life is a lingering nightmare, and I only hope that this dream will wake up soon.

It's getting closer, it's getting closer, Wang Zimo, standing at the bow of the boat, keeps scanning the pier, looking for the person he's dreaming of.As for Lin Zhilan on the pier, she saw the little Wang Zimo at first sight, gradually growing in size, and her own steps walked forward uncontrollably.

When Wang Zimo saw a beautiful woman in moon white clothes holding a child in bright yellow clothes under the scorching sun, he instantly forgot everything.The hustle and bustle on the pier, the cheers of the crowd, the singing of the colorful stage, and the rush of the drums were all dismissed by Wang Zimo from his senses, and the big and small standing on the shore became her everything.

The heart that had been empty was filled, overflowing with happiness, so full that she couldn't help waving her hands vigorously, and shouted loudly: "Lan'er, Bao'er, I'm back!"

Seeing Wang Zimo's youthful and cheerful appearance, Lin Zhilan immediately smiled like a flower, so bright that the scorching sun lost its light, she took Bao'er's little hand, waved it vigorously, and said, "Bao'er, look, it's you father!"

"father?"

Bao'er looked in the direction Lin Zhilan was pointing at, her expression was very confused, what is father?

No matter how slow the boat is, it will come to shore, and no matter how far away, people will come back. Wang Zimo jumped off the boat first, ignoring the surprised eyes of others, and rushed towards Lin Zhilan.

With tears in her eyes, Lin Zhilan stood on the spot holding Bao'er, looking at Wang Zimo's figure approaching her, and found that her heart was very peaceful, just like she was in Wangjiazhuang back then.

Prince Mo rushed to Lin Zhilan, looking at her with nostalgia, familiar yet unfamiliar, Lin Zhilan became more beautiful, so beautiful that she dared not touch her, raised her hand hesitantly and then put it down, while the dazzling face The scar on his face made Wang Zimo's heart ache.

"Who are you! Why are you pretending to be Wang Zimo!" Just when Wang Zimo was hesitating whether to step forward to give Lin Zhilan a hug, Lin Zhilan suddenly felt cold all over her body and asked with a livid face.

"Lan... Lan'er, I am Wang Zimo." Wang Zimo said stupidly, obviously a little shocked.

In terms of shock, it can't compare to Lin Zhilan. The "Wang Zimo" in front of him has grown taller and matured, and has changed a lot from before. His voice is still the same as before, but what about the "Pork Chapter"!Oh no, Gold Seal!

Lin Zhilan carefully scanned the person in front of her, regardless of the servants who surrounded her, Caiyue and Bixia stood beside Lin Zhilan like an old hen guarding her chicks. Among them, there was a little rooster that was the most eye-catching. Standing in front of Lin Zhilan, staring at Wang Zimo with unfriendly eyes.

Wang Zimo was made a little anxious by Lin Zhilan's sudden attitude, and wanted to go forward to explain, but was blocked by Wang Xingen, which made Wang Zimo very angry.At this time, all the people on the boat came down, and as Wang Zimo's guard and shopkeeper came over, a confrontational situation was naturally formed.

Seeing Chen Wangshu, Lin Zhilan calmed down from her overjoyed and sad emotions, and asked, "Brother Shu, is she Wang Zimo?"

"Yeah, she's Xiao Er, Mrs. Lin, are you confused?" Chen Wangshu couldn't figure out what was going on.

Lin Zhilan pushed Wang Xingen aside, looked Wang Zimo up and down, and asked cautiously, "Where's the golden seal on your face?"

At this moment, Wang Zimo finally understood what was going on, and he couldn't laugh or cry at once, the anger that was pent up in his heart, he wanted to vent it but couldn't, it was extremely uncomfortable.

"General Yue gave the medicine and washed it." Wang Zimo said aggrievedly.

"Yes, Mrs. Lin, don't make trouble anymore. Could it be that you don't even know your husband?" Chen Wangshu persuaded.

Now, there is no problem, but is it really gone?

Lin Zhilan couldn't step down, and Wang Zimo couldn't step down even more. Who would have thought that such a situation would turn out after a long separation between life and death.

There are no elders, and there are servants around, who dares to persuade, did not see the embarrassment on Lin Zhilan's face, and Wang Zimo's aggrieved and angry appearance.

Lin Zhilan wanted to say something, but she couldn't hide her face in front of everyone. Who would want to be a daughter-in-law? Baoer's black grape-like eyes kept looking at Wang Zimo. When everyone was silent, she called out childishly: "father!"

Wang Zimo looked at Bao'er in surprise, the child was growing fast and he didn't know him anymore, only the charm of the past was still vaguely in the eyebrows and eyes, this soft "Dad" made Wang Zimo's heart melt up.

"Bao'er, come, let daddy hug you, you've grown up so much."

Wang Zimo slowed down his voice, and stretched out his hands to Bao'er. Bao'er bit her little finger and looked at Lin Zhilan. Seeing Lin Zhilan's encouraging eyes, she slowly stretched out her hands.

The soft little person finally arrived in Wang Zimo's arms. Wang Zimo held him very carefully and treated him like a treasure. Lin Zhilan saw that Wang Zimo was hugging him stiffly, so she stepped forward to arrange Bao'er's clothes, and taught the prince hand in hand. Mo hugged the child, but when he withdrew his hand, Wang Zimo held it tightly in his hand, and he couldn't get it out after struggling several times.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this scene, and some respectable ones stepped forward to congratulate them frequently.

"Young master, you can be considered to be back. Our lady, I look forward to it day and night, and when I know that Xingyuan Mansion falls, I will be sick." Mrs. Zhang said with good words.

"Isn't our young master? The situation is so critical, and I still miss my lady every day, and I call my lady's name in my sleep." Shopkeeper Zhang and Mrs. Zhang are an old husband and wife, and their hearts are connected. Very staged.

Wang Zimo and Lin Zhilan blushed when they were teased by the two elders.Lin Zhilan was a little annoyed with embarrassment, and wanted to withdraw her hand, but Wang Zimo had seen a lot of things in the world over the past year, and his face was much thicker than before, so he didn't let him go.
