Depressed little landlord

Lin Xuan and the others arrived at Lin's residence at noon.

The concierge has been warned a long time ago that guests will come to the door at any time recently, so after waking up in the morning every day, he has 12 points of energy, for fear of neglecting the guests.

In the past, because Lin Xuan asked Steward Hua to dismiss the original servants in the family, so now those are basically Lin Er's side and new ones. As for Lin Xuan, although the later servants have heard about him, they may not all know him. .

No, before the official day, although some guests from farther away have come to the door occasionally, but the frequency is still very small. In addition to this time period, people are hungry and sleepy, so the two concierges cheer up While chatting quietly to pass the time.

For some reason, the topic turned to the young master of the Lin family.

"I don't know if the young master will come or not?" the concierge suddenly asked.

Concierge B rolled his eyes in disdain, "If you want me to say, I definitely won't come." Seeing his companion's puzzled face, he sneered: "Look at him, he is a good young master, even though the old master and his wife are gone, he also moved there. By the way, isn't there still a master? How shameful it is to marry a servant in his capacity."

Only then did A react, but instead he said enviously: "I'm quite envious of the person who can marry the eldest young master. You see how good he is before he is favored by the young master. If it's me...hehe~"

"Only you? I don't take pictures of you even if you are blind."

"Hey! That's not necessarily true." A puffed up his chest, thumped himself, and showed a wretched smile, "Maybe that young master just fancy that servant's stature and strength? Otherwise, where would a servant get the capital to let him go?" The young master is willing to marry him with all his heart?"

B: "..." It makes sense, doesn't it?

But before he could answer, there was the sound of wheels on the road, and the two of them immediately looked serious.

It was Xiaohui pulling the cart as usual, because it was a door-to-door wedding ceremony, Lin Xuan specially searched for the two clothes that he brought from home last year and still kept them, and changed them with Lin Xun, Xu Yang just entrusted Xiang Qing a few days ago A set of arrangements.

Lin Xuan really forgot, Xu Yang...Xu Yang is just satisfied to forget, but for Master Lin, he used to be more respectful when Master Lin was still there, but he moved to the two brothers Lin Xuan on the day and after Master Lin's accident. During the days when he went to the village, after he cared about Lin Xuan, this little respect disappeared completely.

Moreover, there are still battles to be fought today, but compared to Master Lin, Lin Er is just Lin Er.

"Who are you?" Seeing Lin Xuan and the others parked their car in front of the steps, Concierge B hurriedly came to ask.

Lin Xuan got off the cart with Lin Xun in his arms, and replied calmly, "Lin Xuan."

B, who came to ask questions, thought he heard it wrong. After all, he had discussed the owner of this name with his partner before, and now the person appeared in front of him... The other one was shocked, and hurried in to call for someone.

"It turns out that the young master has arrived. The young one will go in and report it. Please come inside, young master!" B, who returned to his senses, nodded and bowed shyly, smiling, but when he turned around, he found that his companion had already taken the lead, so he had to curse a few words in his heart. Continue to greet Lin Xuan and the others, and come down courteously to help lead Xiaohui.

Xiao Hui didn't show much face, snorted a few times and shook his head, not wanting to be touched by him. B stood there awkwardly. In the end, Xu Yang patted it on the back, and Xiao Hui was unwilling to be held. the reins.

And Lin Xuan just stood by the side from the beginning to the end, nodded slightly when the other party looked over, but did not move, but looked up and looked around, Lin Xun did not make a sound, and clung to Lin Xuan's side , even Wei Wei hides behind him.

Xu Yang gave Xiao Hui to the porter, and came over to stand beside the two of them. When he noticed Douding's little movements, he hugged him, and Lin Xun relaxed a little.

Looking up at the plaque on the gate, it is still the original one, and the rest are similar to what I remember.But Lin Xuan still remembered the last scene he saw on the day he left when he just woke up from this body last year.

The white curtains hanging on the beams of the door turned into red silk, and the white gauze lamps were replaced with red lanterns... and the old concierge who was familiar to Lin Xuan also became these two strange faces now.

With the sound of "嘿嘿——" at the gate, the courtyard inside the house immediately came into view, and with Xu Yang's secret nudge, Lin Xuan mechanically walked in.

The plants and trees seen inside were almost as they were in the memory of the man, but he didn't remember any of the faces that greeted him as he walked around.

The so-called things are right and wrong, but that's it?

The gate is not far from the main hall, anyway, according to Lin Xuan's memory, as soon as he entered the door, he saw Lin Er and his wife sitting at the head.

"Xuan'er Xun'er is here, come in quickly, what are you doing at the door? Come on, Xun'er, let Second Aunt hug you~" Seeing the three of them standing at the door without entering the door for a while, they quickly greeted each other, and stretched out their hands to want to Hugged Lin Xun.

Xu Yang's eyes were slightly cold, and he felt that Douding in his arms was a little uneasy, so he patted him on the back lightly, then switched hands to hold her, slightly away from her hand.

Mrs. Lin froze for a moment, but fortunately she recovered quickly and withdrew her hand naturally, and went to touch Lin Xuan instead. Lin Xuan didn't move and she was able to touch someone smoothly, and she felt happier again.

"Are you tired from the journey? Don't blame the second aunt for making her own decisions. Our family hasn't been able to meet and talk for a long time. That's why someone sent a message to tell you to come early. Come in quickly. Don't stand here. I have already told the kitchen to Prepare the food early, and it will be served right away. Xu Yang is the same, they are all a family, treat this place as your own home, don't..."

"Okay!" Lin Er suddenly interrupted her, and scolded: "A woman is a woman. When I get home, I just chatter there. I don't know how to let people take a breather and drink water. You talk so much." Is it right? Why don’t you hurry up and ask someone to prepare a meal, Xuan’er and the others have driven such a long way, so don’t make the children wait too long.”

Hearing and seeing the man's face down, Mrs. Lin also realized at this time that she seemed to have said something wrong, her face turned slightly pale, she lowered her eyes slightly, not daring to look at Lin Xuan, she quickly agreed to ask someone to prepare the meal, and then With an unnatural smile, he called the three of them in again.

Ah--

With a silent laugh, Lin Xuan raised one corner of his lips lightly, and saluted the two: "I have seen my second uncle and my aunt, how are you doing now?"

Lin Er's complexion was gloomy, and he finally responded. Mrs. Lin Er was not as enthusiastic as before, and some obedients also followed her, but she smiled unnaturally.It's just that when it was Xu Yang's turn, Lin Er just raised his eyelids and took a look, as if he just saw someone at this time, and snorted lukewarmly, Mrs. Lin Er was even more embarrassed, but she couldn't say anything, she just secretly gave The man slapped his face.

Lin Xuan had also foreseen this situation a long time ago, and took Xu Yanglin Xun to his seat with a calm expression. Fortunately, he hadn't promised Steward Hua to let him come with him, otherwise he would probably be out of temper.

Ignoring the two people with different expressions, Lin Xuan secretly thought about the situation when Steward Hua knew about this scene, so that he would not have to care about other people's expressions when he was distracted.Xu Yang didn't let go of Lin Xun, even if he sat down, he still let him sit on his lap, just like at their house, and poured tea for Lin Xuan and himself.

Although the layout of the hall is not the same as before, the layout is still the same. From his point of view, it is the same as when the old lady was still there, but he didn't sit down at that time, but now that he sits down, the higher-ups also sit down. Not someone he respects anymore.

Xu Yang greeted them with a nod, and then slowly coaxed Lin Xun in his arms with water. The child had been silent since entering the house. Lin Xuan wanted to comfort him, but he had to deal with Lin Er and the others at any time, and Xu Yang took care of him. It's also good to wear.But he also leaned over to talk to him in a low voice, afraid that he still had memories of this place.

The two coaxed for a long time before Lin Xun smiled again.

Lin Er looked at them, the anger in his eyes growing.Regarding his wife's proposal to call him in advance, he had no objection, but he wanted to talk about this nephew before other distinguished guests came to the door. That's why he didn't go out to greet him when he arrived, just to let him know that he did this Something was wrong, and hopefully he himself would realize the mistake.

Who would have thought that before he started, he would start to shake his face in the face?

"Lin Xuan!" Lin Er finally lost his temper. When Lin Xuan looked over, he put on the airs of an elder and scolded him: "Your father and mother left suddenly. According to your previous behavior, Second Uncle wanted to let you Now that you’re in the village, you can quit those habits of yours. I saw that you’ve changed pretty well before, and your second aunt was still talking about cleaning up the house and bringing your brothers back. Who would have thought that…”

Looking at Lin Xuan, Lin Er showed a look of resentment, and said sadly: "Whoever thought of you, we all thought that you had finally learned it, so we were full of relief. Who would have thought that you would do such a thing again?" !"

Pointing at Xu Yang, he said sternly, "Who is he? Who would you choose as the young master of the Lin family? Do you know what people outside say about you? How can you let your father and mother feel at ease?"

Lin Xuan raised his eyes and looked at Lin Er, coldly and calmly: "Is it so important who Xu Yang is? Besides, others don't know him, as long as I know what he is like, and I'm the one who married him, can others control him?" ?”

"Xuan'er." Mrs. Lin couldn't help yelling, and looked at him disapprovingly.

"Second Aunt also thinks what I said is wrong?" Lin Xuan turned to look at her, and suddenly smiled, "Or Second Aunt also thinks that the lady last time is worthy of your nephew me? But I, Lin Xuan, only He is just a farmer, his family has an acre of land, and his young brother is very poor, how can he be worthy of the young lady's little cousin? Let alone others."

Mrs. Lin Er's breathing was stagnant, she opened her mouth but couldn't make out a word for a moment, Lin Er's face turned dark and she opened her mouth to scold.

Without giving Lin Er a chance to speak, Lin Xuan looked back at him again, and said, "You know, even the whole town knew that as early as the beginning, when I was about to move out of here, I asked Steward Hua to send my family away, and returned Xu Yang had already left the Lin family at that time, so why did he say that he was a slave?"

He touched Xiao Douding's head who was watching him talking, and then glanced at Xu Yang, with mutual understanding in his eyes, Xu Yang also smiled.

The two looked at each other for a short time, but the atmosphere between them was much different than that of the other people they met. As older people, how could Lin Er and his wife not see it?

Lin Er was so angry that he almost jumped up against the case, pointing at Lin Xuan and scolding directly: "You still think it's reasonable? Even if he wears the prince's clothes, he is still a servant, and he is still a servant of our Lin family. Do you think that others won’t tell you if they know? If your eldest brother and sister-in-law were still there, your leg might have been broken! If you still think of me as your second uncle, just listen to the second uncle’s words and divorce this kid immediately. If you If you like men, Second Uncle will give you something..."

"Second Uncle." Lin Xuan interrupted him, suddenly smiled, Lin Er frowned, and as expected he heard him say: "I'm sorry, Second Uncle, I married, not he married me."

Mrs. Lin covered her open mouth with a handkerchief, and Lin Er also opened her eyes wide, pointing at Lin Xuan's handwork and trembling. Lin Xuan still seemed to think that Lei was not big enough, so he continued to smile and slowed down his words, "Second Uncle Second Aunt needn’t be surprised, we are all men, it doesn’t matter who we marry? Besides, Xu Yang is such a good person, he treats me and Xun’er very well. I treat him the same, I think the spirits of parents in heaven also hope so?"

"I also know that the second uncle and the second aunt really love me and Xun'er, and really want to protect and take care of us, that's why they are like this. Thank you for your concern." Looking at the two of them, Lin Xuan was sincerely moved, and suddenly mischievous Blinking, rubbing his belly, he said, "Didn't you say that the food is already ready? When can we start the meal? Today we got up early in the morning to see our second uncle and aunt, and now we are so hungry. called."

Mrs. Lin Er's face turned slightly pale when he kept saying his sincerity, but now seeing his mischievous appearance, she couldn't keep up for a while and looked a little stiff. She didn't react until Lin Er gave him a displeased look, and quickly He smiled and said, "It will be ready soon, it will be ready soon", and pulled Lin Er's sleeve to signal him to hold back his anger first, or to eat first, then Lin Er glared at a few people, snorted coldly and walked away.

Mrs. Lin Er hurriedly smiled and beckoned Lin Xuan and the others to follow, and led them to the side hall, where the dishes and chopsticks were indeed set.

Seeing a few people coming in, Lin Erhei yelled at the servant girl with a sullen face, "Where's Miss and Master? Why don't you invite people out for dinner?"

The servant girl hurriedly apologized and wanted to leave, but was stopped again, "Wait a minute, let's forget about the miss, how can I come out to eat at the same table with outsiders? Just call the second young master."

Lin Xuan and Xu Yang stopped at the same time.

Mrs. Lin Er's face changed again, she quickly turned around and pulled Lin Xuan back, and at the same time lowered her face, it was a rare time to directly refute Lin Er's words.

"No, it's all a family. What's the point of eating together as a family and worrying about these things? Let the young lady come with you. We're going to get married tomorrow, and it's time to come out to recognize the family."

The servant girl looked at the two with some embarrassment, and finally saw that the master was silent, so she responded timidly and hurried out to call for someone.

Mrs. Lin Er didn't bother to deal with her husband's ugly face, but pulled Lin Xuan all the way to sit down at the table, and then called Xu Yang to come over. Find a taller stool and place it between the two of them as Lin Xun's seat.

Facing Mrs. Lin Er, Lin Xuan didn't push back directly like Lin Er did, so he managed to suppress the anger in his heart and sat down as promised.

No matter what it is now, if he turns his back on him now, no matter how much he reasoned as a junior, he can't argue with the fact that the other party is their elder. The girl didn't come to her marriage, or she didn't dare to bring up such a topic because Xu Yang felt ashamed about it.

Of course, in fact, whether he will come or not, such rumors have been flying all over the sky.

It's just that a face-loving person like Lin Er had endured it before, but this time it's hard to say, he will definitely just push all the dirty water on them. He hinted that it doesn't matter, but Lin Xun is still young, and he doesn't know what will happen in the future. Where he wants to develop, it is always bad and bad for his reputation.

In the end, under the suppression of Mrs. Lin's second wife, the lunch was finally used up in an unhappy manner.

After lunch, Lin Er couldn't bear it anymore and walked away again. Mrs. Lin Er wanted to stay and continue talking, but Lin Xuan smiled and said first: "Second Aunt, I don't know where my parents used to be. Are you still here?"

Seeing the other party's stunned expression, Lin Xuan quickly apologized: "Ah, I'm so sorry! Did I mention something that shouldn't be mentioned? This request is too much, I just can't help but want to see my parents before Where I live, that's why I..."

Seeing his lost look, Mrs. Lin's eyes immediately became moist, and she hurriedly took Lin Xuan's hand to comfort her: "It's still there, it's still there, your original yard is still there, and Second Aunt hasn't moved anyone. Go there, since you guys want to go and have a look, then go, just don’t forget to rest, I’ve already had someone clean up the house, come back to rest early, ah~”

"Thank you, Second Aunt." Lin Xuan smiled in surprise, and quickly thanked her, even Xu Yang and Lin Xun also thanked her.

She was so happy that a smile appeared on her face again, and her expression became enthusiastic again. Looking at the backs of the three people who were going away, she subconsciously sighed softly.

Lin Xiang'er, who hadn't left all this time, came to support her, and called softly, "Mom?"

Looking back and seeing her beautiful daughter, thinking that after tonight, her daughter will marry someone else, I can't help feeling very emotional.

Brushing the hair from her daughter's cheeks, her eyes became more moist, "In the blink of an eye, you will all grow up one by one, and when you marry women, you will feel a little happy and sad. You can't bear it."

Lin Xianger glanced at the backs of the two who were walking away together, a little envious in her eyes, she looked back at her mother, pursed her lips and smiled, and comforted her softly: "Mother, my daughter will grow up eventually, and my daughter is reluctant to leave her father. Mother, if possible, my daughter would rather be filial and serve her parents all her life... Ouch!"

Before she could finish speaking, her mother's index finger tapped her on the forehead, and she hurriedly let out a soft cry, covering the spot where her mother had touched her with her slender hand, and looked at her mother with aggrieved eyes.

Mrs. Lin was amused by her, "Silly girl, what are you talking about? How can there be any girl who doesn't marry? Don't say such things in the future, it's not good for people to hear, you know?"

"Oh."

Mrs. Lin looked at her again and shook her head with a smile, "How uncomfortable it would be for Zhouer to hear what you said?" After finishing, she said earnestly: "When you go to Liu's house in the future, pay attention to yourself, and don't say anything. , Liu’s family is no better than ours, so don’t wipe your husband’s face, you know?”

Lin Xiang'er answered very seriously this time: "Now that I know mother, my daughter must remember mother's teachings well, and won't embarrass brother Xuzhou, nor embarrass parents."

"Okay, mother's good daughter, really mother's good daughter!"

Lin Xianger helped Mrs. Lin Er to walk back slowly, talking to her in a low voice, and watching the backs of the mother and daughter from a distance was also a harmonious and warm scene.

"Mother, actually, I think Big Brother and Big Brother Xu get along pretty well."

"……Um."

"Father just can't accept it for a while, mother, please persuade father more, I don't think elder brother sincerely wants to fight against father."

"Oh—how could mother not know? Mother also knows what you are thinking. You also hope that your elder brother will live well, so that Zhou'er will completely let go of your elder brother, right?"

"Mother~~"

"Okay, mother don't say, don't say."

... The mother and daughter whispered again in the wind.

"It's just Xiang'er, if you want to catch Zhou'er's heart, you have to be more tolerant and considerate of him. Zhou'er started running around with his father at a young age, and it will definitely be the same in the future. If...you Be more considerate, although this will wrong you, but this is the path you chose, do you understand what mother said?"

"...I understand, mother."

"Hey! Go with mother to make soup for your father. He didn't eat well for lunch today."

"Hey. Father will definitely not get angry with mother. Don't worry, mother."

***

Looking at the room and furnishings that were still exactly the same as before, Lin Xuan touched the position of his heart and sighed in his heart.

Thinking of the person he met in the "dream" two nights ago, and knowing what he asked him to do when he knew he was going to come here for a wedding, Lin Xuan turned his head to look at this place and didn't speak again after entering here, and even buried his head in Xu Yang's shoulder Lin Xun sighed slightly.

Putting his hand on his back, he asked softly, "Xun'er, are you sleepy and want to sleep?"

Xiao Douding was quiet for a while, then nodded hesitantly, and then shook his head quickly. Lin Xuan and Xu Yang looked at each other, and they both saw the worry in each other's eyes.

Lin Xuan asked him softly again: "Then do you want to go out for a stroll? Or go to brother Xiang Qing's for something to eat?"

Douding nodded very quickly this time, and even straightened up, the meaning was obvious.

Xu Yang patted Lin Xuan on the back, and said, "Let's go, come and see when Xun'er is in a better mood, or I'll take Xun'er out first, see if there is anything else you need, and bring it with us when we go back tomorrow." Let's go back."

Lin Xuan smiled slowly, "That's fine, otherwise it would be Luochen here, and I think they hope so too. But do I think our house needs to be rebuilt?"

"We'll talk about it later when we have money."

"Haha, okay, listen to you. Hey, wait for me, let me tell you, Huzi told me yesterday that we have melons in the field, and we will have watermelons to eat in a month or so."

While closing the door and locking it again, Lin Xuan yelled at the two people who were already approaching the courtyard door, and immediately kept them there, so he waved the key ring in his hand a little triumphantly, and stopped talking.

Douding was still impatient. He had heard his brother say how delicious watermelon was, and now his attention was completely attracted, so he naturally wanted to ask. If he wasn't in the village now, he would have asked Huzi and the others to take him to see it. After all.

This time, the two waited until Lin Xuan closed the courtyard door, and followed them before going out together. However, before going far, they met the servants sent by Mrs. Lin to serve them. Lin Xuan waved them to go on their own. , Said that they are going out for a stroll now, and will come back later, so that their master should not worry.

The two little maids saw that they couldn't stop them, and they couldn't forcefully follow, so they had to go back to talk to Madam worriedly.

At that time, Lin Er had already gone to the study and was not in the room, otherwise she would definitely get angry again. Mrs. Lin Er didn't say anything after hearing that, she just warned them not to say anything and let them go down, and then she leaned on the head of the bed and closed her eyes tiredly. repose.

In the past, I was only envious of the status of my sister-in-law, but when she came to preside over the compound and deal with the wives and ladies from time to time, I realized that it was not so easy here.

Thinking of this, thinking that starting tomorrow, my daughter will also enter the Liu family, which has a more complex population than theirs, and suddenly thinking of seeing Lin Xuan and Xu Yang and Lin Xun leaving together today, a trace of regret arises in my heart in vain. Lin Er also complained a little bit about his decision, is it really good for his daughter to marry into such a family?

Although Xuzhou is a good boy, Xuan'er was the one he liked all the time before, and even though Xuan'er rejected him, he chose Xu Yang instead, and that child was determined to marry his daughter, but...

Mrs. Lin Er opened her eyes suddenly, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead.

No, no, no!Tomorrow is Xiang'er's wedding day with him, there will be no problems, she can't think too much...it must be because she has been too busy recently, and she is too tired to think wildly, so let's take a rest today, after resting, she can do nothing alright.

Mrs. Lin leaned back slowly, closed her eyes again, and hypnotized herself to rest in her heart. In the end, she didn't know if it was really successful. She leaned there quietly, her chest rising and falling evenly, and hurriedly beckoned another servant girl to come in. The two worked together to carefully support her to lie flat, pulled the thin quilt to cover her, and then left quietly.

As night fell, wax was lit in the house one after another, lampshades were covered and lanterns were raised. After a while, the main courtyard and passage corridors regained light.

The servants didn't get the order, so they consciously lowered their voices and went about their own business. The old housekeeper from the new main courtyard has come twice, and the little maids shook their heads to indicate that the madam is still awake. The old housekeeper frowned slightly, and ordered again: " When Madam wakes up, let's eat quickly, the master is in a bad mood today, you should tighten your skin."

"Yes."

The three of them were talking softly when there was finally movement in the room, and the three of them immediately fell silent.

"Is it Uncle Fu? Go back and tell the master that I'm coming soon... Cough cough, is the kitchen food ready? Let them serve the food when it's ready, and don't let the masters, young masters and ladies starve."

"Yes, ma'am." The old butler respectfully responded and retreated out, and the two maids had already rushed in when there was movement inside.

After Lin Er's family sat down, they found out that Lin Xuan and the other three hadn't arrived, so they asked someone to ask and said they hadn't come back yet, Lin Er's face turned black again.

Mrs. Lin coughed softly twice, and Lin Xianger quickly scooped up some soup for her, "Mother, are you feeling unwell?"

Lin Er also looked over with concern, "But do you want to ask the doctor to take a look?"

"It's okay, it's just that I accidentally blew a little wind while sleeping today, it's okay." Mrs. Lin smiled and waved her hand, signaling them not to be nervous, "It's my fault, Xuan'er and the others told me today that they would go out and meet My friend, I won't be coming back for dinner tonight, master, don't be angry, after all, Xuan'er is a man, and he has grown up now, and has his own opinions. Xu Yang is also a safe person, so he won't cause any trouble. "

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly scooped up soup for him and his son, "Here, drink it while it's hot. They will come back later, don't worry."

"Who will worry about them?" That being said, Lin Er still took the soup bowl, "I just want him to be obedient and don't make any trouble for me. Tomorrow is Xiang'er's wedding day, and I can't lose it anymore Make this face."

"Yes, I will persuade them when they come back. After a tiring day, let's eat quickly."

Without the presence of Lin Xuan and the three of them, the dining table of the two Lin families regained some of the previous atmosphere. Lin Cai can't do anything else, but if he teases his mother and shoots his father, it's so smooth, it's impossible not to be lively.

On the contrary, on Xiang Qing's side, the atmosphere was more lively and there were constant laughter.

Compared with Lin Er, Douding Lin Xun was much more lively, and Xiang Qing, who loved teasing him so much, could almost hear his laughter all night.

Lin Xuan Xu Yang also smiled a lot more here, and was much more sincere.

Hearing that their fish ponds have basically been dug, and that they can start releasing water to raise fish after some time in the sun, Xiang Qing was also very excited to hear that, and Qi Ling also happily said that he had already asked the people in the mansion, and the other party Promise to give him more lotus seeds, even if he wants plants, it is not a problem.

This news made Lin Xuan even happier. He thanked them again and again, and asked when they would move here, maybe when the pond would be full of flowers.

"Don't curse me, boy, I plan to bring Xiao Lingzi home this year!"

"Hahaha--"

Xiang Qing yelled angrily, making everyone laugh out loud, Lin Xun also laughed happily, and the laughter kept spreading far, far——

The author has something to say: ugh. .Wanzhang is gone _(:_」∠)_ first.
