The stepson of the Lin family of the Red Chamber

"Ayao!"

As soon as she came out of the teacher's yard, Lin Yao heard a familiar voice calling him, looked up, and saw Lin Ying standing under the big tree beside Qingshi Road, smiling at him.

"Second brother?" Lin Yao was slightly surprised, and said immediately, "You're back?"

When I first returned to Yangzhou, I didn't see Lin Ying. Lin Yao asked about it. It was Gu Zhen who told him that Lin Ying's sister-in-law gave birth to twins, and the family was going to hold a full moon banquet. After all, Lin Ying was a relative of the children. Uncle couldn't justify not being there, so he asked for leave and hurried back to Gusu.

Before Lin Yao was adopted, she was not close to her elder brother Lin Chen, let alone sister-in-law.Although Lin Ying and Lin Chen were born of the same mother, their temperaments are completely different. The former is a bit of a follower, while the latter is the iron king.

However, although the two brothers have different temperaments, their relationship is not bad, so Lin Ying is also willing to ask for leave to return to Gusu.

"Well, I'm back." Lin Ying walked towards Lin Yao, "I heard that you had come back when I just returned to the academy. I went to look for Ah Zhen and they didn't see you. I only found out that the dean was looking for you when I asked. I'm waiting for you here."

Lin Yao smiled and said, "It's not that I can't see you, why bother waiting for me outside the courtyard?"

"It's okay." Lin Ying looked at the gate of Qin Yuxing's courtyard, "What does the dean want from you?"

Lin Yao said, "Azhen and Xu Pan's festival, do you know?"

"Of course I know." Lin Ying is Lin Yao's biological elder brother, although he was not born of the same mother, he has a better relationship than his fellow brothers.

"Is it related to Xu Pan?"

Lin Yao told him what had happened, "The college's management of students is still too loose." Lin Yao also told Lin Ying the student union plan she had presented to the teacher, hoping to hear his opinion.

After hearing Lin Yao's words, Lin Ying pondered for a moment, then frowned and said, "This method is certainly feasible, but it also has serious disadvantages. This is a force composed of students. Have you ever thought that its existence will let the Students realize the benefits of power?"

Although this power is strictly only reflected in the academy, it will amplify the desire for power in the hearts of the students.

When Lin Ying said this, Lin Yao remembered that many members of student unions in modern times have a sense of superiority and official prestige, which is a bad habit developed in the student union.

There are advantages and disadvantages in the student union. It is impossible to completely eliminate the disadvantages. After all, no one can control people's hearts.

"Second brother reminded me." Lin Yao thought for a while and said, "No, I have to go back to the teacher."

Before Lin Ying had time to call him to stop, he had already run into the courtyard.

Lin Ying laughed, "It's really reckless."

However, Lin Yao valued his opinion so much, which made him very upset.

After waiting for a while, Lin Yao came out.

"Did you tell the dean?"

"Teacher has thought of this a long time ago." Lin Yao said shyly.

It was because of this that Lin Ying wanted to call Lin Yao to stay. The dean couldn't think of any problems he could think of?

But Lin Yao was concerned, she was blindfolded for a while, and hurried back to tell his teacher.

But it's okay, it's not a joke.

"Let's go, go back."

Lin Yao and Lin Ying went back to the dorm side by side, chatting while walking.

"Master Lin... wants to marry you?" Lin Yao was a little stunned, "Why does he have the nerve to ask?"

Lin Ying said, "Don't worry, my wife has already rejected it for me."

"This lady is a rare good person, but it's a pity that I met..." Scumbag.Lin Yao's words came to her lips, but she didn't say them out.

Even if he is adopted, Lin Run is still his biological father, and he cannot speak evil words.

"Second brother plans to take part in this year's township examination?" Although Lin Run is under the control of his new wife, he is Lin Ying's biological father after all, so it still has some influence. The biological father, the influence on him can also be minimized.

Lin Ying nodded, "It's natural, how about you?"

"The teacher asked me to accumulate for another two years, so I'm not in a hurry for now." Lin Yao said.

Lin Ying hummed, "You are the only disciple of the dean, and the dean will not harm you."

The two chatted all the way back to the dormitory.

Lin Ying's schoolhouse is next to Lin Yao's schoolhouse, and lives with Zhou Jun, He Xi, and Sheng Yi. After experiencing Yang Zun's incident, Zhou Jun has a very close relationship with them, although they are not They often stay together, but in the academy, Zhou Jun and the others are the closest to Lin Yao.

"Ayao!"

Seeing the schoolhouse from a distance, Lin Yao heard Gu Zhen calling him.

Then, Gu Zhen ran out of the dormitory, "Ah Yao."

"What's the matter?" He was about to arrive at the dormitory, but Gu Zhen ran out to greet him, which was a bit weird.

Seeing that Lin Ying was also there, Gu Zhen said hello and said, "Brother Heyu, I have something to ask Ayao."

Lin Ying was startled when she heard the words, and immediately said, "Then I'll go back to the dormitory first."

Seeing that Gu Zhen deliberately dismissed Lin Ying, Lin Yao became even more surprised, "What are you doing? It's mysterious."

"Come here." Looking at the schoolhouse from afar, Gu Zhen seemed uneasy, and pulled Lin Yao a little further away, looked left and right to make sure there was no one around, then lowered his voice and said, "Ah Yao, I asked One thing for you."

"Speak directly." Lin Yao said helplessly.

"What... do you think of my sister?" Gu Zhen seemed a little embarrassed, he hesitated, but asked.

Lin Yao was taken aback by the question, "What do you mean?"

"Is it difficult to understand what I said?" Gu Zhen wondered.

Lin Yao hesitated, "Is that what I understand?"

Gu Zhen: "..."

He paused, and said, "I just received a letter from my mother, saying that I want to promise my sister to you, and let me check your tone."

If it was someone else, Gu Zhen would definitely criticize him, but if it was Lin Yao, Gu Zhen would not hesitate to raise both hands and feet in favor.

In the beginning, he just wanted to test out Lin Yao's tone, and he was willing to be more direct to save trouble.

But Lin Yao's reaction was beyond his expectation.

Simply, Gu Zhen told the whole story about the letter he received from his mother.

Now Lin Yao was convinced that she did not misunderstand the meaning, and he looked at Gu Zhen in a daze, stunned.

"Your sister...isn't nine years old yet?" If he remembered correctly, Gu Fulan's birthday is on the sixth day of June.

It wasn't that he deliberately inquired about Gu Fulan's birthday, it was because his sister and Gu Fulan had a very good relationship. Every year when Gu Fulan's birthday approached, Daiyu would always ask him to discuss what gift to give Gu Fulan. After this trip, I naturally deeply remembered Gu Fulan's birthday.

Gu Fulan was the same age as Daiyu, although Lin Yao was physically a teenager in his early teens, but mentally he was an adult in his twenties, and he would never feel any admiration for an eight or nine-year-old child.

How crazy is it to be in love with an eight or nine-year-old child?

"You're not much older than my sister, are you?" Gu Zhen said angrily, "You're only two years older than my sister, isn't your age just right?"

Lin Yao could not refute.

He took a breath, cleared his throat and said, "We are still young, it's too early to say this."

"You don't like my sister?" Gu Zhen frowned, "What's wrong with my sister?"

Lin Yao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Your sister is very good, but...the problem is that she is still young, you never thought about it, if I nod my head now and settle this marriage, in the future when your sister grows up and has a sweetheart, she will be married again." What should I do? Is it to the point of retiring the engagement? How ugly is that?"

"With you, my sister can still see others, how blind is that?" Gu Zhen said incomprehensibly.

Lin Yao was choked, although she knew that Gu Zhen was praising him, but it was really hard to accept.

Seeming that Lin Yao was in a bit of trouble, Gu Zhen calmed down and said, "I'm not forcing you to marry my sister, it's just... I know you well, so I'm naturally more at ease, but if you don't feel good, just treat me like I am today. I didn’t mention it, but it doesn’t affect the friendship between us.”

"Of course." Seeing that Gu Zhen finally let go, Lin Yao also heaved a sigh of relief.

In fact, he doesn't really care about love or not. After his time travels, his age is here. It is destined that the girl he wants to marry will be much younger than his mental age. Who is he not to marry?

But Gu Fulan was different.

She is Gu Zhen's younger sister, Lin Yao can't easily agree, who knows if Gu Fulan yearns for love?

After all, it is a girl's family, if she is looking forward to her husband's sincerity, Lin Yao will not be able to give it, and the trouble will be too ugly, not to mention affecting the friendship between the two families, both sides will not look good.

"When I go back to my mother, I persuade her that you don't have to put any pressure on her, and you don't have to hide from my sister deliberately. It's fine as usual." In fact, Gu Zhen had already discovered that her sister was very concerned about Lin Yao, otherwise she wouldn't Let Lin Yao send his sister back.

One is that he is relieved of Lin Yao, and the other is because of his sister.

But since Lin Yao was somewhat resistant to this marriage, Gu Zhen didn't want Lin Yao to feel repulsive towards his sister.

"Speaking of which, why did Aunt Gu suddenly have such an idea?" Lin Yao was so puzzled that he was caught off guard and almost panicked.

Gu Zhen said, "I don't know either, and my mother didn't go into details in her letter. I just asked you what you think of Lan'er."

Hearing this, Lin Yao was a little uneasy, "Aunt Gu won't write to ask my master and wife?"

Gu Zhen froze, thought for a while, this is very possible.

"It's hard to say..."

Lin Yao stared at Gu Zhen without speaking, Gu Zhen scratched her head, "I... just write a letter back?"

"Then there will be Lao Zhen." Lin Yao smiled.

The corner of Gu Zhen's mouth twitched, "Okay, I'll write right away."

The two went back to the school dormitory together, and went back to their own rooms.

When Lin Yao returned to her room, she saw her cousin Luo Wencheng, who lived in the same room with him, was practicing calligraphy. Seeing him coming back, she kept writing and asked in a gentle voice, "Ah Zhen hurriedly asked you what to say?" What about whispering?"

"It's nothing."

Even if Gu Fulan was involved, Lin Yao didn't intend to publicize it.

Seeing that Lin Yao didn't say anything, Luo Wencheng knew it was inconvenient, so he smiled and bowed his head to practice calligraphy.

There are three screens in the bedroom, which just divide the room into two halves. The screens are placed in a straight line. On both sides of the screens are a simple wooden bed, desk and bookshelf, and two symmetrical windows.

Lin Yao had just been 'frightened' and felt a little confused at the moment. Seeing her cousin practicing calligraphy, she also took out a pen, ink, paper and inkstone to set them up, sharpened the ink, and began to practice calligraphy and meditate.

After writing a dozen or so words, Lin Yao calmed down and packed up her things.

Seeing that it was getting late, I washed up and went to bed.

The next day, she practiced martial arts and studied as usual. As for whether Gu Zhen wrote a letter back home, Lin Yao did not ask. Lin Yao still trusted Gu Zhen's character. Since Gu Zhen had agreed to write a letter to explain, she would definitely write , he asked specifically because he suspected that Gu Zhen was dishonest.
