Attunement into fine rules

Chapter 21 Drowning and Swimming

"Jinlin's family has encountered a catastrophe, and they are living in the dust. If there is no young master to lend a helping hand today, I am afraid that they will die."

After politely touching his forehead to the ground, Jin Lin straightened his upper body, looked at Wei Yuan who was sitting in front of the table, and tentatively asked: "Thanks to the great kindness of the young master, I wonder if the young master...is there any old relationship with Jin Lin's family?"

He is an intelligent man from a noble family, and at this time he has learned that Wei Yuan is the second son of Jizhou governor's family.

It can also be seen that the other party is not greedy for his lust.

He really thought it was like this at first, but when he really saw this young master clearly, he no longer thought so.

With the appearance of this second young master, if it weren't for the governor of Jizhou, who was born in a small family, it would have caused robbery and locked up the house.

How could he be greedy for his lust?

However, there is always a reason for people to do things, not to mention the magical skill of bringing the dead back to life.

He is now charged with nothing, and since he is not greedy, it should be for affection.

Unexpectedly, Wei Yuan shook his head in denial: "There is no such thing as old."

Then he said: "You don't have to think that I am kind to you, and want to repay you."

"It just so happens that you are here, if not you, there will be someone else."

"From now on, follow Wei Hu carefully in the front yard."

Jin Lin swallowed what he wanted to say later, and replied: "Yes."

Then exit the study.

In fact, I still feel a little lost in my heart.

Although he is a sinner, even if he is redeemed now, it is impossible for him to enter the court again, but as a man, he still does not want to waste his life on this, and wants to do something.

It's an opportunity to be next to the Second Young Master.

He followed his grandfather to measure the world's roads and rivers for ten years, reading thousands of volumes, and the fingers of his right hand still bear the cocoons left by his diligent calligraphy and painting.

He can do many things, and he is willing to serve the Second Young Master wholeheartedly, but the Second Young Master only asks him to be a servant in the front yard to clean the door.

And said he has no kindness to him.

Not asking for favors in return, that is to say, not expecting him, regardless of his health or ability, he never wanted to use him from the beginning to the end.

It is purely to save someone back.

Jin Lin walked to the arched door, looked towards the direction of the study, stretched her beautiful eyebrows, and smiled lowly.

It's true that after staying in the imperial city for a long time, and experiencing family changes again, I have seen too many people's desires and various schemes.

With a prominent family and various honors and praises, it is inevitable that he also takes his own value too seriously.

It is he who thinks too much.

"Young master saved him for the sake of fame." After Jin Lin left the study, Wei Lang came to Wei Yuan's side, and gently closed the opened pages in front of him.

Overturn life and death in full view, in order to make a name for yourself.

There are many ways to do good deeds, the Lord is clearly doing it deliberately.

"That's right, Mrs. Wei is cautious and patient." Wei Yuan picked up the teacup and turned it in his hand, his slender fingers against the azure porcelain cup, making it look more and more white as jade, "Only the seemingly peaceful balance is broken, and she Only when I feel that I have the ability to really fight with her, and feel threatened, will I be unable to hold back."

"Thereby revealing the horse's feet."

Wei Lang watched him drink half a cup of tea, and then said: "Reading makes one's mind hurt, I'll push Young Master out for a walk."

Wei Yuan looked at the sky, and it was already Shen Shi at this time, and he just came back from a stroll for dinner, so he said, "That's fine."

"Go to the back garden of the mansion, I haven't been there yet."

The governor's mansion is quite large, the sons each have a separate yard, and the daughters share the yard with their aunt.

Although each courtyard has a small garden, like Wei Yuan's Changping Courtyard, which even has a koi pond, pavilions and arch bridges, it is still not comparable to the back garden of the Governor's Mansion.

In the back garden, the Taihu stones are arranged in a patchwork pattern, which are psychic and clear. They were all transported from the Jiangnan water town at a high price.

The winding path is paved with smooth and round rain flower colored stones.Walking on it, you can see the pavilions with colorful cornices for a while, the shade of blooming flowers and trees, the winding bridges for a while, and the rustling of bamboo forests in the wind when you turn a corner.

Each of them forms a scene, and it seems to be completely natural. Compared with modern parks, it is even more ingenious and ancient.

Although it is not as beautiful as the Tiangong, it is already the pinnacle of the rich and noble township in the world.

The wheels were rolling, and Wei Yuan was pushed by Wei Lang to walk slowly for about a moment, he walked around a few Taihu Lake stones, and saw a lotus pond not far away.

It is spring now, and there are no lotus flowers in bloom, only large green leaves floating on the clear water, and koi carp play among the leaves from time to time, rippling in circles, fresh and pleasing to the eye.

Next to the pond is a wooden pavilion with stone tables and benches.

This is... the place where the Fourth Young Master fell into the water and died.

"Wei Lang, let's go and have a look." Wei Yuan ordered.

Wei Lang pushed him over as he said, and Wei Yuan touched the pavilion railing.

The railing is about half a person's height, and it is quite sturdy. Under the railing is a row of solid wooden platforms. The wooden platform protrudes about as long as a palm, and the edges and corners are smoothed. , about the height of Wei Lang's calf.

The masters drink and dine in the pavilion and admire the lotus flowers. When they are free, the maids and servants can sit and rest on the wooden platform.

"Fourth Young Master, it turned out that he wasn't pushed down." Looking at the lotus pond, Wei Yuan suddenly said, "He was picked up and thrown down."

A half-grown child standing on this wooden platform, playing and climbing, may indeed be pushed down.

For example, Da Zhuang and Er Zhuang.

But the fourth son, Wei Li, was only three years old at the time. With the height of a three-year-old child, even if he was playing on the wooden platform, the guardrail would be slightly higher than the child's head, so it was impossible for him to be pushed down the lotus pond.

"Yes." Wei Lang replied, and took a look at Wei Yuan, "Of course it wasn't the Second Young Master who did it, it was Mrs. Wei, the little girl who died without proof."

Wei Yuan looked at his fingers stained with black ash as he touched the pavilion railing, and said with emotion: "It's been a long time since anyone came here."

As soon as the words fell, I heard an angry and sharp female voice: "You still dare to come here?!"

When Wei Yuan turned his head, he saw Wei Gui, the eldest lady, wearing a lotus-colored embroidered silk gauze dress, standing not far away, with a blue face, and a girl by her side.

So he smiled slightly and said, "This is my home, why can't I come here?"

"This is the place where you killed Li'er!" Wei Gui shouted, with tears in his eyes, "You still dare to come?!"

"I didn't kill him." Wei Yuan looked at Wei Gui.

"If you don't remember, can you pretend it never happened?" Wei Gui walked up to Wei Yuan, pointing at him with tears, "Do you know that you owe Li'er, you owe him your life!"

Seeing that she was determined to be the one who killed her younger brother, Wei Yuan simply said, "Even if I did, what do you think about making trouble? Do you want me to pay for it?"

"I don't want you to pay for your life." Wei Gui sneered, pointing to the lotus pond next to him, "As long as you jump from here now, there will be no relationship between us! Do you dare?!"

Standing behind Wei Yuan, Wei Lang's muscles tensed slowly.

If she dared to do something crazy to the Lord, he would definitely teach her a lesson.

Unexpectedly, Wei Gui didn't intend to make a move against Wei Yuan like last time, but walked slowly to the railing, stretched out his hand to support the pillar, fixed his gaze on Wei Yuan, and slowly curled up the corners of his lips: " You dare not, but I dare!"

"When you were stupid, you pushed Li'er into the water and drowned without any crime; but now that you are sober, you pushed me into the water with the intention of murdering me, it depends on how you justify it!"

After speaking, Wei Gui stepped onto the side of the wooden platform and fell into the lotus pond.

The silk gauze dress danced in the air, like a fluttering flower, sinking in the clear water in an instant.

"Miss!"

The girl let out a piercing cry: "Miss fell into the water!"

"The eldest lady was pushed into the water by the second son!!"

"Come on, come on!!!"

As the cry spread, the steward who watched the garden hurried over with a few servants, and said repeatedly: "Miss fell into the water? Where, where?!"

The girl hurriedly greeted her with tears, pointed at Wei Yuan and said, "It was the Second Young Master who asked his attendants to push Missy into the lotus pond! Go into the water and save her!! Hurry up!!!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Facing the girl's accusation, Wei Yuan said calmly, "Your lady jumped off by herself."

The steward and the servants looked at each other in blank amazement.

"My lady doesn't know how to use water!" the girl stomped her feet and said hoarsely, "How could she jump off by herself?!"

"Who said she can't swim?" Wei Yuan said, "She jumped down just to swim."

"You said how my miss is, that's what's going on?!" The girl looked around, seeing that no one had moved, she was anxious and angry, "When something happens to my miss, all of you will take care of it. What?!"

"Of course I said it doesn't count." Wei Yuan tapped the wooden railing next to him with his fingers, "Your lady said it herself, so it should count."

The girl clenched her fists tightly and gritted her teeth: "How could my young lady..."

At this time, how could her young lady speak in person?

But Wei Yuan interrupted her immediately, and suddenly raised his voice to the water below the pavilion: "Big sister, are you swimming?! If you keep quiet, a group of people will jump into the water to save you! "

Just as Wei Yuan finished speaking, there was a splash on the surface of the water, layers of ripples swayed, and Wei Gui really surfaced.

Her hair was loose, and she was submerged in water from the collarbone down.

She and Wei Yuan were sitting by the pavilion, and the other was floating on the water, looking at each other.

The corners of Wei Yuan's lips curled up slightly, but her face was pale and blue, and Wei Yuan looked as if she had seen a ghost.

"Yes, I'm swimming." Under the eyes of everyone, Miss Wei's lips parted, and she spoke clearly, "I don't need help."

Wei Gui's close girl took a few steps back with a look of disbelief.

She followed Wei Gui when she was seven or eight years old. How could she not know if the eldest lady could swim? !

The scene in front of me is simply ridiculous!

What's even more absurd is that the eldest miss has always hated and hated the second son, and always wanted to seek justice for her younger brother, so she sacrificed her life for such a scheme.

Right now, the eldest lady actually floated out of the pool and admitted that she was swimming!
