Lin Xuan of the Red Chamber

Hearing this familiar voice, Lin Xuan couldn't help being startled, his body became a little stiff, my God, why did Lin Ruhai appear here, shouldn't he go to the Yamen.

It seems that he chose the wrong time, and the news is not well-informed. He didn't even know that Lin Ruhai was back. No wonder he would be arrested now. Lin Xuan felt bitter. He knew that he might not be able to go out today. Tell Li Yan, that kid agreed to him with great difficulty. If he misses the appointment, he probably won't think about it again.

With all kinds of thoughts in his mind, Lin Xuan still turned around with a calm expression on the surface, as if he had never done anything, and said respectfully: "Father"

Compared with Lin Xuan's composure, Lin Daiyu was inferior. Her performance could easily be seen as something wrong. She held Lin Xuan's hand tightly with a timid expression. She has always loved her, but this time she was going to sneak out after all, and now she was indeed caught. She is only four years old, and it doesn't seem like Lin Xuan is used to doing this kind of thing. Naturally, she was a little uneasy, and she inevitably showed some traces come.

Lin Ruhai stared fixedly at Lin Xuan, who was as if nothing had happened, and Lin Daiyu, who was obviously a little nervous. He knew that there must be something wrong with the two of them appearing here alone, but Lin Ruhai also knew that asking Lin Xuan might not be able to ask anything. Although the boy is only five years old, but he is a ghost, full of ghost ideas, very mischievous, and he doesn't know who he followed. He turned to Daiyu and asked in a deep voice: "Yu'er, where are you going?" , those maidservants who serve you, where have they all gone?"

Lin Daiyu was a little flustered by Lin Ruhai's question. She knew that her father must not know what happened today, otherwise her brother would be punished, but she didn't know how to answer. She glanced at Lin Xuan secretly, and moved back. A little bit, trying to hide himself behind Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan knew that his younger sister was relatively innocent, too young, and didn't know how to lie, so he took advantage of the situation to hide Lin Daiyu behind him. He couldn't let Lin Ruhai follow Lin Daiyu's mouth, he was still trying to get away with it Well, no matter what the reason is, Lin Ruhai cannot let Lin Ruhai know that he wants to sneak out, otherwise he will be miserable.

But this reason needs to be made up better, otherwise a shrewd person like Lin Ruhai wouldn't believe it. Lin Xuan rolled his eyes and had an idea in his mind. He just wanted to speak, but was blocked by Lin Ruhai.

Lin Ruhai looked at Lin Xuan calmly, and his voice was flat, neither mocking nor threatening, just the most common questioning tone.

"Have you forgotten the rules I taught you? You also want to interrupt when the elders ask questions."

This faint sentence made Lin Xuan's heart tense. The four generations of the Lin family are all outstanding figures, not only because of good genetics, but also because the Lin family has a complete set of rules for educating their offspring. And it is extremely strict, so that people dare not make mistakes in the slightest.

But Lin Ruhai didn't have a son until he was middle-aged. He usually seems to be very strict with himself on the surface, but in fact Lin Xuan knows how much Lin Ruhai loves him. Come down, but never use this set of strict rules to restrain yourself.

That's why Lin Xuan dared to sneak out of the house, because he knew that Lin Ruhai would not punish him too much for this, but now Lin Ruhai mentioned the family rules, which made Lin Xuan feel a little cold, he knew that Lin Ruhai must be really angry this time But why? Could it be that Lin Ruhai already knew what he was going to do.

Knowing that Lin Ruhai was really angry, Lin Xuan didn't dare to touch his brow, he closed his mouth embarrassingly, and swallowed what he wanted to say, now he can only secretly pray that Lin Daiyu will be smarter , don't tell about his attempt to sneak out of the house.

Although he originally thought that they would definitely be discovered if they left for a long time, but he was willing to be punished after going out for a play, but he didn't even go out, so he was punished because of this, wouldn't he have died unjustly? .

Lin Ruhai looked at Lin Xuan and Lin Daiyu, and a surge of anger surged in his heart. He had received the good news from the house today, so he rushed home specially, but who knew that he saw Lin Xuan in the front yard The sneaky figure, although he didn't know what Lin Xuan wanted to do, but he could guess a little bit, this kid always wanted someone to take him out of the house, and now there was not a single maid by his side. Courtyard, what else could it be for.

"The two masters don't have a single servant girl to serve them. If they are so inattentive, it seems that those servant girls can't be kept any longer." Lin Ruhai looked at Lin Daiyu with deep eyes, and said slowly.

Although Lin Ruhai guessed a little bit, he can't punish his son just because of guessing, and he also understands his own son. I want to know from him, but Daiyu is different, she is young, so it is much easier to ask her.

As Lin Ruhai expected, Lin Daiyu was really in a hurry, she was kind by nature, and those maids were always serving her by her side, so she was somewhat emotional, how could she watch the maids around her being punished because of her, without even hesitating. No, Lin Daiyu said all the words hidden in her heart.

"No, father, my brother and I dumped them, don't blame them, don't drive them away" Lin Daiyu said tearfully, she really thought that Lin Ruhai was going to drive those maids away.

Hearing that Lin Daiyu was being tricked by Lin Ruhai so easily, Lin Xuan couldn't help but cursed inwardly, looking at Lin Daiyu, his eyes were about to burst into flames, this dead girl didn't even think about her brother before she said that. Could it be that those maids are more important to her than his brother?

"Oh, Yu'er, tell me, why did you dump them?" Lin Ruhai's eyes flickered, seeing Lin Xuan's anxious look, there was nothing he didn't understand, this must be another ghost idea of ​​his .

Lin Daiyu hesitated at this time. Although she was young, she also knew that her brother would definitely be punished if she said it, and she didn't want her brother to be punished by her father. She was so angry that she quickly shut up, let alone opening her mouth.

Lin Xuan has been watching Lin Daiyu closely, his gaze is full of threats, as if to say, little girl, if you dare to speak out, I will never talk to you again.

"Yu'er, don't look at him, tell me, what's going on?" Lin Ruhai's voice was low, as if he was angry.

"Brother said he wanted to take me out of the house to play." Lin Daiyu was frightened by Lin Ruhai's appearance. Lin Ruhai always had a pleasant face in front of her. She had never seen Lin Ruhai with a downcast face. She was afraid that Lin Ruhai would really be angry with her. Under the worry and fear in his heart, this sentence blurted out all at once.

Seeing that Lin Ruhai just turned down, Lin Daiyu explained everything, and the summary was so precise that he couldn't do it even if he wanted to, Lin Xuan couldn't help crying in his heart, oh my god, how could he have such a Sister, I betrayed him so easily, I knew he would never take Lin Daiyu with me, this dead girl, really, it was a waste of him treating her so well on weekdays, thinking of her for everything good, this All of a sudden, but she was killed miserably.

In fact, I can't blame Lin Daiyu for not keeping him a secret. After all, she is only a four-year-old child. Even if she is precocious, she can't tell lies like him without blinking her eyes. Besides, what is Lin Ruhai? The character, the ups and downs of the officialdom, he can achieve today's achievements, is it easy to be with, even if Lin Xuan has the experience of the previous life, he can't do it if he wants to lie in front of him, let alone Lin Daiyu.

Noticing Lin Ruhai's sharp gaze, Lin Xuan lowered his head guiltyly, he couldn't care less about being angry with Lin Daiyu for a while, and only thought about how to get through this disaster.

Seeing Lin Xuan bowed his head guiltily, Lin Ruhai became even more angry. He only had this son in his 30s, and Lin Xuan was his only son. He was always pampered and never strictly disciplined. He, but he didn't expect that Lin Xuan would be so naughty to such an extent that he even wanted to sneak out of the house. He was so courageous. It seemed that he really had to be ruthless and discipline Lin Xuan properly.

We can't pamper him anymore, otherwise if he dared to sneak out of the house today, he wouldn't know what he would dare to do tomorrow.

---------

Following Lin Ruhai into the study, Lin Xuan walked to the small desk he usually used for reading and writing, gently moved the stool away, took off the cushion and put it on the ground, kneeling on it consciously, Lin Ruhai brought him to the study Meaning, of course he understands that he has been planning to sneak out of the house today, and he hasn't done his homework yet, and Lin Ruhai is strict with his studies, so he brought him to the study, just to let him finish his homework first. something else.

As for kneeling on the mat, that was Lin Xuan's own thought. He wanted to express to Lin Ruhai that he knew he was wrong, and hoped that Lin Ruhai could forgive him.He wanted to see if he could kneel down as a punishment to soften Lin Ruhai's heart and spare him a hard time.

Lin Xuan's careful thinking couldn't be hidden from Lin Ruhai, but seeing Lin Xuan's rare and obedient appearance, the anger in his heart finally subsided a little, he stopped looking at Lin Xuan, turned around and sat on the chair, casually I found the book and read it seriously.

Lin Xuan is extravagant by nature and loves to enjoy himself. The clothes and accessories are all made by the best embroiderers in Gusu. Any flaws are not acceptable. The furniture in the room are usually rare treasures. Lin Ruhai is the only son of Lin Ruhai. The wife doted on him again, and she relied on him for everything, not to mention that it was just a drop in the bucket for the Lin family.

Now the small desk in front of Lin Xuan is made of agarwood according to his intention. It exudes a faint fragrance as a whole. The longer it is used, the fragrance becomes stronger, and the smell of agarwood is natural. It is not pungent, but has a mellow and leisurely feeling. The most rare thing is the cool touch of agarwood, which can calm people down quickly.

Lin Xuan knelt on the mat and silently traced large characters. The quiet atmosphere in the study quickly calmed his originally uneasy heart.
