ordinary people's house

Lin Yulan and Xiao Yunlang entered through the main entrance of the Hou's Mansion generously. The concierge gave them a sidelong glance and said without looking at their posts, "Go to the back entrance."

Lin Yulan frowned, Xiao Yunlang said, "Do you know who we are?"

The porter said impatiently: "Do you know what day it is today? Don't make trouble here, go and go."

Xiao Yunlang saw that the other concierge was silent, but stepped back a few steps and lowered his head, he knew in his heart that this was to make things difficult for them, and when he was about to speak, they heard a man say loudly: "Little uncle, little uncle, you coming."

The concierge was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Young master."

Zhao Zong trotted out and said with a smile, "It's been a long time since I saw little uncle, mother has been waiting for you for a long time."

Lin Yulan smiled lightly, Zhao Zong turned sideways and said, "Do you remember who this is?"

The concierge hurriedly said, "I remember it, little one."

Zhao Zong snorted coldly and said: "Since you are slaves of the Zhao family, you must know what you should do and what you should not do. If you offend all the relatives of the Zhao family, you must know my methods!"

The concierge didn't know what to think of, so he flinched.

Lin Yulan and Xiao Yunlang walked behind Zhao Zong. After a while, Zhao Zong said in a low voice, "Call my little uncle and I'm kidding. Now the power of the inner house is controlled by the wife at home, and the mother can't make the decision."

"Hmm..." Lin Yulan estimated the situation of the elder sister in Yongcheng Hou Mansion, and frowned in displeasure. Xiao Yunlang shook his hand vigorously.

In front of Lin Yujing's courtyard, Zhao Zong whispered outside the door: "When you see your mother, I have something to say to my little uncle."

Lin Yulan noticed that several passing servants dodged when they saw Zhao Zong, and thinking about the reaction of the doorman just now, she couldn't help guessing what Zhao Zong had done before.

Lin Yujing was dressed plainly, without any hairpins on her head, and waited quietly inside. As soon as Lin Yulan and Xiao Yunlang entered the door, Lin Yujing's eyes became moist. She stretched out her hand and choked up, saying, "Little brother."

"Sister." Lin Yulan walked over.

They haven't seen each other for a long time, Lin Yujing said: "Little brother, don't blame my sister, there is nothing I can do about it."

"I don't blame you." Lin Yulan said.How could he not know, even before the Jingchuan Hou Mansion had an accident, the eldest sister had many restrictions here, saying that she was the wife of the son, even people like the second room Kong could bully her, Wang The madam is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and the old Hou Ye is not cold or warm to Zhao Zong. It is her limit that she took the money without telling the old Hou Ye half a year ago.

Lin Yujing was born noble, but half her life was miserable. Lin Yulan understood, so no matter what happened, he would not blame her.

"Sister, what happened to Zong'er recently?"

Lin Yujing lowered her eyes and sighed, "He killed a girl."

"Why?" Xiao Yunlang was also taken aback.

"Who sent that girl, I don't know," Lin Yujing said lightly, "That day she took medicine and put it in Zong'er's diet and climbed onto Zong'er's bed. Things like lewdness, when I heard the movement, Zong'er had already beaten him to death."

"He..." Xiao Yunlang paused, "Did he kill himself?"

"Don't talk about me, the whole family was shocked. Zong'er said in front of Kong and others, as long as anyone dares to do those despicable things, come and kill them." Lin Yujing's tears rolled down , "He's covered in blood, he frightened those people, only I can see that he is also afraid, his whole body is shaking, but I am a useless mother, I can only hold him and cry."

Lin Yulan gritted her teeth tightly, Xiao Yunlang was taken aback seeing his expression, patted him on the back comfortingly, and forced a smile: "Zong'er is a good boy, this kind of thing will pass soon, the two of us ...Master," Xiao Yunlang quickly figured out the root cause of the matter, and said firmly, "Zong'er must become the noble! Only when his status as the eldest son is established and the family is divided, can my sister and Zong'er have peace!"

"If Zhao Heng wanted to, he would have already made Zong'er the eldest son." Lin Yulan said coldly.

"As long as Zong'er makes no serious mistakes, he will inherit the title sooner or later. The second room and the fourth room are trying their best to pull Zong'er down before the old man dies," Xiao Yunlang said calmly, "They just think that the Lin family has collapsed and Zong'er is gone. Backing, what are they themselves? Zhao Lao Er is a fool, but he was lucky enough to get to the emperor's side, but there are a lot of dirty things behind him, as for Zhao Lao Si, he is just a playboy, who is afraid of him?"

Lin Yujing looked at him and lowered her head a little at a loss.

Xiao Yunlang squatted down and said: "Big sister, you don't have to be afraid of hurting our family, we two are not afraid now. As long as Zong'er is promising, I am willing to let my father come forward. Zhao Heng has no reason not to give Zong'er a chance. "

Xiao Yunlang and Lin Yujing were talking, Lin Yulan exited the room, Zhao Zong was waiting for him outside the door, the two were a bit close in stature, but Zhao Zong was thinner, with a withdrawn look in his eyes.

Zhao Zong smiled, "Little uncle."

"What do you have to do with me?"

Zhao Zongdao: "I would like to ask my little uncle to introduce me to the Xishan Camp."

Lin Yulan looked at him and asked, "Are you serious?"

"Little uncle has also seen the situation in our house. I am useless in studying, and I don't want to fight with my grandfather and second uncle to ask my grandfather to give me a position. Don't worry, little uncle. I am willing to start from the lowest level. Starting as a soldier, whether I am successful or not depends entirely on my own ability."

Lin Yulan hesitated for a while and asked, "Does your mother know?"

Zhao Zong was also silent for a while, and replied: "I haven't told my mother, but you know, little uncle, my mother is too soft-tempered, anyone can step on her feet, I have to stand up for our mother and son now, and tell them the long house There are already grown men!"

Lin Yulan patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Okay, I see."

After a while, Zhao Zong said in a low voice: "Little uncle, if someone says something unpleasant in front of you later, don't mind..." Zhao Zong's tone turned cold all of a sudden, "Wait for me later Standing on a higher position than them, I will return them one by one!"

On the other side, Lin Yujing talked about Lin Yuzhen, and Xiao Yunlang said: "My husband doesn't ask the second sister to help the Lin family, but only hopes that the second sister will miss the family relationship, and the siblings can support each other."

Lin Yujing sighed: "Second sister has not been very happy these years. Before she married, Wu Liulang was still praised by everyone as a handsome talent. You know what happened in these years, and there are many people who say in front of her that she hinders the husband. She The chosen daughter-in-law also had an accident, and she gradually changed."

Xiao Yunlang said: "Msanggong will never forgive her again."

Lin Yujing shook her head helplessly and smiled wryly, "Even I, I don't want to see her again. We are all siblings. She didn't show up before and no one blamed her. Later, she went too far."

Lin Yujing thought of a place with Zhao Zong at the same time, and said, "If someone puts a face on you, don't worry about it."

"We knew what was going to happen before we came and we weren't afraid."

Lin Yujing smiled, "Little brother is really lucky to have you by his side."

Xiao Yunlang also laughed.

Lin Yulan and Xiao Yunlang, accompanied by Zhao Zong, went down to greet Zhao Heng and his wife. They went a little later, and the main courtyard was already full of people. Zhao Zong bypassed them and walked directly to Zhao Heng, saying: "Grandfather, Xiao family My little uncle and husband have come to greet you."

Zhao Heng laughed and said, "It's Yulan who is here."

Lin Yulan said expressionlessly, "Old Hou Ye, long time no see."

Xiao Yunlang smiled gently and said, "Do you still like that Jade Buddha?"

Speaking of the Jade Buddha, it means that he is not kind enough to Zong'er, Zhao Heng thought to himself, then smiled and said: "Thank you juniors for your hard work, my descendants, Zong'er is the most filial, and I love him the most He lost his father when he was young, hey, it’s just that he is young, sometimes he always thinks about it, and sometimes I, as a grandfather, often have headaches.”

Xiao Yunlang said: "With your care, and Zong'er is the grandson of the eldest son, there will be no mistakes."

The eldest grandson!Zhao Heng's heart trembled, could it be that the couple wanted to attack on the spot? !Zhao Heng changed the topic with a smile, "Hey, let's not talk about our family, how is Uncle Xiao recently?"

The female relatives were all inside, and they didn't know what they said, Mrs. Kong snorted disdainfully, Mrs. Wang smiled and said: "For a family like ours, there are always people who want to join in."

Mrs. Cui remained silent, Mrs. Wang's sister-in-law had a treacherous voice, and sneered while eating snacks: "Who said no, sister, it's not me who said, what kind of family is the Hou's mansion? If any cat or dog can be regarded as a relative, why not?" Make people laugh to death."

The Kong family was also at odds with the Wang family, but at this moment they agreed: "Who says it's not, I said yesterday that a shabby household should look like a shabby household..."

When Lin Yujing came in, Kong immediately fell silent.

Lin Yujing greeted Mrs. Wang, and Mrs. Wang reluctantly told her to sit down. From the standpoint of status, the others were no match for Lin Yujing. No matter what she thought in her heart, she had to say hello to the eldest grandma of the Lin family. Lin Yujing saw her well In the middle of the night, with the same expression, Wang said: "Boss, daughter-in-law, we are just talking, what the master means is that we still line up seats as in previous years, but you also know... Hehe, it's hard for us to say these things on the face, it's better for you Take the initiative to hold a table in your yard, so that your family members can also have some intimate conversations."

Lin Yujing was originally a dough-like person, and Wang, Kong, etc. could be bullied on her head, but today Lin Yujing said: "Madam, this is against the rules."

Mrs. Wang was taken aback for a moment, completely unaware that Mrs. Lin would refute her meaning.

Kong said: "Sister-in-law, what do you mean by this? My wife is looking towards you. I know that sister-in-law is not sociable, so I ask your own family to spend more time with you." If things really go according to Wang's arrangement, wait until tomorrow She can spread the news that the relatives of the eldest room are not qualified to sit with their second room now!

Lin Yujing's hands hidden under her sleeves were tightly clenched. She looked at the people who wanted to see her jokes, and said quietly: "My younger brother Yulan is the uncle of the eldest grandson of the Hou family, and his wife is the eldest son of Jin Jiangbo. , my wife is not afraid of other people's gossip, just arrange it like this!"

Mrs. Wang felt her face dry, and she rushed up with anger. Before Mrs. Kong could stop her, Mrs. Wang threw the teacup in her hand towards Lin Yujing. She entered the door only a few years later than Lin Yujing. In the past ten years, Lin Yujing Never dared to go against her will, such a young lady from the Hou family is not as good as a woman from a small family like her, how carefree she is, how dare this Lin family? !How dare she tell herself not to come down in front of so many people? !

Cui hurriedly pulled Lin Yujing and told her to hide, Cui said coldly: "Madam, what do you mean?"

Cui's husband is mediocre, but she herself is tough, and she didn't bow her head to Wang. Wang also realized that she was impulsive, and was about to remedy it. Cui had already helped Lin Yujing to stand up, "Sister-in-law, let's go to the front See the master, ask the master to have a look, say we offended the wife, ask the master to decide to divorce us!"

"Stop them quickly—" Wang shrieked.

For a while, the female family members of the Wang family and relatives of the Kong family gathered around. Lin Yujing took the trouble and flicked her sleeves, "Since the wife is tired of us, just tell the master that our Lin family will not come to the door anymore."

Wang Shi didn't dare to say anything more this time, and felt even more resentful in her heart. When her son became a prince, she would make Lin Shi look good again!

In front Zhao Heng still had a smile on his face, but his heart was already full of misery. Sanlang of the Lin family didn't say a word, but his husband was smiling, but his words were inseparable from Zong'er, and the expressions of the second and fourth sons of the Zhao family were also It was getting darker and darker, and finally Zhao Heng couldn't bear it anymore, so he asked the little girls to take someone out for a walk.

Lin Yulan calmly went out holding hands with Xiao Yunlang, and finally Xiao Yunlang turned around and said with a smile: "When I was young, I was at my grandfather's house, and it happened that Lord Hou took my eldest brother-in-law to visit, and my eldest brother-in-law even hugged me. Now that I think about it, I have been gone for more than ten years." Yes, it’s really embarrassing.”

Zhao Heng didn't make jokes anymore, instead he was a little moved. If the eldest son hadn't died, there wouldn't be so many troubles in the family now. He sighed, and then couldn't help thinking, could it be true that the Yuan family is expected to return to Beijing this year?

Zhao Zong just didn't say a word, and said outside: "Young uncle, you don't have to speak for me. Grandpa won't make a decision if he doesn't see the benefits."

"What's the benefit?"

Zhao Zong curled his lips, "Grandfather thinks that the emperor doesn't like the Lin family, so he may not allow me to take over the title, or lower his title. The second uncle may be more likely, but if grandfather decides on the second uncle, the fourth uncle and his wife will go crazy gone."

A little girl trotted over and said, "Master Zong, Grandma asked you to go."

Zhao Zong frowned and asked, "What happened?"

The little girl said: "Go and see for yourself."

Zhao Zong's face darkened and said: "Little uncle, you go on your own first, I'll be back in a while."
