The husband's son-in-law

Lin Wulang lay on the ground and howled, and when he heard someone calling Master Gu to come, he howled louder and said some nonsense.

"Master Gu, help me, Li Lin is afraid that I will run into something scandalous and try to beat me to death."

"Li Lin and this servant secretly in broad daylight—"

Li Zhouzhou's face was cold. If he had thought about some misunderstanding before coming here, after all, he had beaten someone, and on their territory, he still apologized in a loud and friendly manner, but when he heard this, he immediately became furious and said: " Shut your mouth."

Gu Zhao pressed Xia Zhouzhou's arm, indicating that he was not in a hurry.

The couple brought Mrs. Lin and the others to the front.Brother Lin's clothes were a little disheveled, and his eyes were red, but he couldn't hold back his tears. He called out to the boss, but he didn't know what to say or how to explain it.

"Brother Lin, you and Xiaotao go back to the yard to clean up first, it's fine." Li Zhouzhou said to Brother Lin: "I've been wronged, don't be afraid, I'm here for everything."

Liu Tao helped Brother Lin to go back, but Brother Lin bit his lip, and when he heard Lin Wulang on the ground groping about him, he shook his head and said, "I won't go back, I want to confront him, first he stopped me—— "

"He's a mad dog, a lazy dog. What are you? You are the brother of the Li family. You are a distinguished guest invited to my house. Comparing him is an insult to you." Gu Zhaotong and Li Lin said warmly.

When he looked at Lin Wulang on the ground again, his voice became cold, and he said: "The fifth son of the Lin family is full of energy, and he doesn't seem to be seriously injured, so please invite Master Lin to come to the house first."

Lin Wulang cut off the 'grievance' wailing with a groan, because it was different from what he had imagined.

He was clearly injured, or seriously injured, and he was the one to blame anyway, and the other party was wronged. When he got into trouble, Li Lin's reputation would be damaged. Whether it was Mrs. Gu or the Li family, they should apologize to him, and then Make promises and promises, it is best to marry Li Lin to him.

This is also why Lin Wulang was raised by his aunt since he was a child. When he went out to play, he was surrounded by servants who were lower than him, and his relatives on the aunt's side. I really felt the power of being an official.

He also wants to use his so-called 'reason' to take advantage of this.

Mr. Gu taught this Lin Wulang today that with his absolute strength, a concubine like him would not take it seriously at all.

Knowing that you want to play tricks, you can directly draw your salary from the bottom of the pot.

Your father is still afraid of Mr. Gu, how about you?Who do you want to threaten?Who do you want to blame?

Mrs. Lin wanted to apologise, with a look of eagerness on her face, and Mrs. Hou was also a little sorry, if it wasn't for showing her son, such a disaster would not have happened, and she was afraid that it would affect Mrs. Lin.

"You two ladies, don't be in a hurry." Li Zhouzhou comforted the two of them first, and said, "Master Lin will be back in a while. The weather is hot, and this place is not far from my yard. Let's go and have a rest."

Gu Zhao said: "Go to the meeting, it's not a big deal, I'll take care of it." After thinking for a while, he asked: "Mrs. Lin, is this Lin Wulang favored when he is at home?"

Mrs. Lin replied anxiously: "Master loves his aunt, and he also loves him."

"Favourite my concubine." Gu Zhaolue nodded, giving reassurance to Mrs. Lin who was still in a panic, "Master Lin should understand right and wrong, and he will never disrespect Mrs. Lin just because he spoils his concubine's son."

Li Zhouzhou followed up and said: "Yes, it is a good thing for my family to be the host today. Don't disturb everyone because of trivial matters." Then he said to Brother Lin: "Don't dry it out, come to have a tea break .”

Liu Tao dragged Brother Lin to follow.Brother Lin worried about looking at Meng Jianyun before he left, and wanted to tell Mr. Gu that he did everything first and not to do anything about Meng Jianyun. Meng Jianyun was trying to save him, but when he saw Mr. Gu's expression was calm, As if he knew everything, he followed Miss Xiaotao away in a daze.

Oda and Master Lin arrived one after the other.

As the weather got hotter, a chair was placed under the shade of the Moon Gate on the Bamboo Forest Trail in Lifu. Mr. Gu was sitting on the chair, holding a bowl of sour plum soup in his hand, and Lin Wulang was lying on the cobblestone road diagonally across— —I can't even howl.

Xiaotian wanted to salute, but Gu Zhao waved his hand to signal that he didn’t need it, “Let’s show him first, Meng Jianyun explained to Xiaotian how you fought, so it’s very convenient to save people.”

Master Lin hurried over, sweating all over his head, seeing Xiao Wu on the ground calling daddy, he didn't care, he knelt down to greet Master Gu first.

Gu Zhao hummed, accepted the gift, but didn't let Master Lin get up.

At this moment, Master Lin knew that the matter was serious.Mr. Gu is usually easy-going, but the people of Zhaozhou remember that he has been sentenced to Heli case several times before, no matter what the people say, the sentence should be sentenced, and he should be slapped at the gate of the yamen. This is Mr. Gu.

If you don't commit crimes on weekdays, you can still say hello to Mr. Gu with a smile, what a crime—

"My lord, the dog has offended my lord for nothing, just beat and scold you if you have anything to do."

Gu Zhao handed the bowl of sour plum soup to the housekeeper, and said earnestly, "Master Lin, you can't be a father. You have taught such a naughty young master who dares to tell tales and lie in front of me."

"My lord is right. He is just stubborn. His aunt taught him badly. If you want to be beaten and punished, please, sir, and thank you for disciplining the child for me." .

Gu Zhao: "I paid for your son's medical expenses today. After all, the injury was at my house. I just stepped out of the house and spread the word of a mess. I heard—"

"Master Lin, there are not many people near Zhaozhou City, but there are quite a few merchants, right?"

"Yes, yes, sir, I will teach you the lesson, and I will never dare to let him talk nonsense again." Master Lin kowtowed again and again.

Gu Zhao just got up, helped Mr. Lin up, smiled coldly, and said, "What is Mr. Lin doing? Don't worry, I am reasonable. Today my family Zhou Zhou said that Mrs. Lin is dignified and virtuous. The children taught by her must be good, but I saw that Lin Wulang didn't look like it, and I found out that he was brought up by the aunt in the house. Is it a little bit worse, not like Master Lin and Mrs. Lin who understand right and wrong. "

"He's not young anymore, especially a boy, he must not be coddled. Once he is spoiled, his character will be ruined."

How could Master Lin dare to say anything else, he kept nodding his head and said that Master Gu was right.

"Xiao Tian, ​​how are you? Are you not in danger of your life?" Gu Zhao asked.

"My lord, this Young Master Lin's arm is dislocated. His ankle is sprained. It's not a fatal injury. Just go back to bed and recuperate." Xiaotian said: "This dislocated arm should be brought back to normal as soon as possible."

Gu Zhao looked at Lin Wulang with a pale face, and didn't know whether it was the pain or the sun, but it was good for Zhang Chang to learn a lesson from the pain, so he said casually: "Then it's right, don't wait, it's just right, Let the servants of the Lin family take it back to recuperate."

After getting the order, Xiaotian asked Meng Jianyun to help him, and said: "This bone setting will hurt soon, please forgive me, Master Lin—"

'click' sound.

He said he was sorry, but his subordinates were fast and ruthless.Gu Zhaojian smiled slightly, Oda is not bad.

Lin Goro howled for a long time and then sunbathed for a long time, lack of water, thirst, and pain all over his body, he was lack of energy at first, but after being straightened by Oda, he suddenly felt piercing pain and howled fiercely.

Master Lin just felt some kind father's distress, Gu Zhao glanced at it, and said casually: "You are screaming so loudly, it seems that the person is fine, that's all, send someone back, don't invite this person in the future, it's a mess, Don’t take Fubao with you.”

This was said to Butler Zhou.

Butler Zhou should be, and waved for the servant to carry him out.

"Master Lin, is he sending his son back? Or are we staying together? My backyard is still bustling with roast whole lamb and delicious wine. In the afternoon, I even invited a theater troupe to be lively." Gu Zhao asked with a smile.

Master Lin naturally didn't want to go back, Mr. Gu invited him, and immediately said he would stay, and said a lot of flattery and confession, Mr. Gu also smiled and said that the past is over, but this child will not Get used to it, today is a small punishment and a big warning.

"...Yes, yes, what Master Gu said is true."

It was resolved in two or three strokes, no big deal.Gu Zhao took people to the back, and the smell of roasted whole lamb was tangy, let's eat and drink now, turned his head and said, "Meng Jianyun, go to the main courtyard to see if the boss is free? The lamb is roasted, come to lunch."

Meng Jianyun was ordered to go down, but he knew in his heart that Mr. Gu reminded him that there was no end to this matter, so he went back to deal with him.But he has no regrets.

Mr. Gu didn't mention the matter ahead, but Master Lin was also happy to eat and drink. The big guy didn't seem to have a big deal at first glance. Although he was curious, he would not ask directly.After a while, Li Zhouzhou, Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Hou also arrived.

The two ladies were quiet, not so flustered, and sat down as usual, not saying a word about what happened just now.

After having an outdoor barbecue at noon, I invited all the wives to take a break at home and watch a play in the afternoon. Everyone was tired after playing all morning, so the servants of Li Mansion led the way to the waterside courtyard to rest.

There is a bed where you can take a short nap, and everything you need to wash your face and relieve your hands is new.

Master Lin talked to Mrs. Lin about what happened.Mrs. Lin was also dumbfounded, "I don't know, the real master, just sit down and listen to the report from the housekeeper of Li Mansion, saying that Xiao Wu was beaten, and I rushed over with Mrs. Gu..."

"Master, I really didn't say that it's okay for Xiao Wu to be frivolous at home. It's all from my own family. You love this son, and I love him a little bit, but they all came out. In Master Gu's mansion, when flying a kite in the morning Got into a dispute with Master Chen's granddaughter, Lin Niang." Madam Lin later figured out the meaning of what Master Gu said, and now she is naturally suing in a different way.

Aunt Hong has had enough of the limelight, and today is also an opportunity to frustrate their mother and son.

Maybe in the future, there will be no hope for Aunt Hong in the mansion.

When Master Lin heard how he offended Mrs. Chen's granddaughter, he immediately frowned, and cursed: "It's unreasonable, this scoundrel, a useless thing, if I knew you shouldn't have brought him here, a concubine, there is no reason to bring him here. What face do you come here?"

Mrs. Lin was wronged but she didn't mention that the master asked her to take it that day, she just said: "It's my incomplete thinking, master don't get angry, fortunately it didn't cause any major disaster."

"Forget it, I shouldn't blame you. It's his aunt telling stories and whispering in my ears. A concubine is short-sighted..."

On the other end, Linniang went back to Xiaotao and Brother Yu to rest in the yard, and pulled Brother Lin over.

Brother Lin was still thinking that everyone would ask what happened, but he saw Sister Xiaotao and Sister Lin gathered around Brother Yu, joking with each other, "Tell me, there are so many today, which one do you like?" , "Let's talk about it first, that Lin Wulang is not good, if you take a fancy to him, I will lose my temper with you."

Brother Yu waved his hand, "No, no, he laughed at me. I'm not cheap, so how can I get on the pole?"

"That's the reason."

"Stop talking about annoying people, Brother Yu, hurry up and say, don't change the topic, do you see the right person? I found out today, Brother Yu, while we were not paying attention, secretly had sex with another person Playing kites together, do you want me to talk about it, or you say it yourself?" Linniang joked with a smile.

Brother Lin didn't know how to talk about the beating in the morning, but now that he listened, his attention was drawn away, and he didn't want to beat him anymore, so he asked seriously and curiously: "I didn't even see it, brother Yu, please tell me."

Su Jiayu was blushing and embarrassed, but couldn't hold back the big guy's curiosity, and whispered: "Not necessarily, just talking, he has a good temper, I let it go for a while, and he will accompany him, as for what to do Look at cousin."

"Is this really true?" Liu Tao was also curious, "Mrs. Lin, you are really amazing. When you were playing the kite, you obviously shouted to cheer up, but you actually noticed Brother Yu."

Niang Lin was proud, "I'm smart."

Everyone surrounded Brother Yu and asked carefully.

In the courtyard.Li Zhouzhou also chatted with Mr. Xianggong, and talked about the children of several wives' families on the field today, some of them were well-to-do, and some were not so rich, and asked Mr. Xianggong how he was.Neither of them talked about the reason why brother Lin beat someone.

"Zhou Zhou, you know what's in your mind, tell me what you say." Gu Zhao said.

Li Zhouzhou said: "Take Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Hou to sit in the main courtyard in the morning and chat for a while. Mrs. Hou is quite honest. I'm afraid it's because of her family and the Lin family. If you can hold back your anger, you will accuse me when Mrs. Lin is resting, and the accusation is not to say good things for Lin Wulang, but to say that Mrs. Lin is not easy, and she is also a high climber today."

He didn't mention much about the internal affairs of the Lin family's house, but he did.

OK.

Gu Zhao thought that in the crowd of men in the morning, he soon met Mrs. Hou's man, "He is honest and kind, he doesn't like to be flattered, he can't speak, and he is stupid. But honesty can be divided into honesty or because of lack of money. , I have to be honest."

"Is Mrs. Hou's son the one in the plain robe? He looks okay, with straight bushy eyebrows and big eyes." Gu Zhao remembered that this son was quite similar to his father.

Slightly square face, with angular mandibles, big eyes, thick eyebrows, big and tall nose, average height, 1.7 meters seven or seven eight, in terms of current aesthetics, it is the kind of boxy and small Handsome.

Li Zhouzhou heard about it, and said: "The Hou family is not too poor. Naturally, those who come to do business today are not rich, but they are all craftsmen."

"There are three sons and one daughter. The daughter is married, and the first two sons have their own families."

Gu Zhao listened halfway, "Isn't the population complicated in this family?"

"There are a lot of people, but it's not complicated. None of the Hou family's men took concubines, and the Hou family also divided their families. Mrs. Hou and the master live with the eldest son, but they are worried about the marriage of the younger son. The Hou family divides the fields equally. Yes, even daughters who marry out will get the land.”

Because of this, Li Zhouzhou has a good impression of Mrs. Hou.

It is said that the married daughter splashed the water, but Mrs. Hou thought about the married daughter. When dividing the land, the son of the Hou family did not say much, and let the parents decide to divide the land for the younger sister/sister.

"Naturally, the eldest son occupies more of the house, and there are more ancestral houses in the country. The other three brothers are all the same, and they all enter the small courtyard. I have an only daughter, and this only daughter's family is a little rich and rich. When Mrs. Hou made a calculation, she was afraid that outsiders would say that the Hou family took advantage of the woman's family. The daughter-in-law has a good life, and the first child still has the same surname as the woman."

Gu Zhao listened and nodded, considering the current situation, the Hou family couple can really be said to be upright and sincere.

"This business is okay."

"I also think, Mr. Xiang, take a good look at the youngest son of the Hou family in the afternoon. His name is Hou Tong."

"Success." Gu Zhao agreed, then forgot, and asked, "You haven't said what the Hou family is doing."

Craftsman, what craft?

Li Zhouzhou said: "The boss of the porcelain maker is the bowl and dish in Zhaozhou City, the second is the tea cup vase for drinking tea, and Hou Tong is the porcelain box for the rouge powder in the rouge shop in Zhaozhou City. "

"The three brothers know how to do it separately, so as to save a long time of unhappiness, which is very good."

Later in the afternoon, everyone watched the play, ate melon seeds and chatted. Young girls and men sat together, and the elders sat close to the stage, chatting while watching the play.Li Zhouzhou's families asked about the situation, but the falsehoods made several families unable to grasp it.

Wait until the end of the day and see off guests in the evening.

Gu Zhaode took time to secretly say something to Zhou Zhou, "I think it's okay, except that people have some sense of death, if Brother Yu can hold on tightly, Hou Tong will trust Brother Yu in this life, then it's fine."

When Li Zhouzhou sent off Mrs. Hou, he was a little intimate and revealed his intentions. Don't show it to Hou Tongxiang. I am happy to chat with Mrs. Madam, and I will ask Madam to talk about it in a few days.

Anyway, I'm just looking for an excuse to make another appointment.

A discerning person knows what it means.

After sending off the people, the servants in the mansion tidied up. Li Zhouzhou shook his neck, relaxed and relaxed. After a while, Fubao was coming back from school, Gu Zhaoshou gave Zhou Zhou a shoulder squeeze, and the couple looked at the gate of the yard. Peeling two people.

Brother Lin is standing on the left, and Meng Jianyun is on the right.

Like the two door gods.

"I haven't looked for you yet, you took the initiative to stand up, let's come in and talk about it." Gu Zhao let go of the hand that pinched Zhou Zhou's shoulder, and his face became serious.

Brother Lin was a little anxious and said, "My lord, it has nothing to do with Guan Shi, it's all because of me."

"It has nothing to do with you, it's because I can't understand that person."

Gu Zhao looked at Meng Jianyun, "You are quite responsible. I didn't ask Boss Li to lead Su Shiyi to teach me a lesson. What did I say that day? Today I will—"

Meng Jianyun straightened up and knelt down.

Seeing this, Brother Lin also knelt down with a plop.

"My lord, it's all my fault. Don't chase Guan Meng away." Brother Lin's eyes were red but he didn't cry, and said carefully: "Lin Wulang blocked me today, saying bad things about brother Yu and brother Wang Jian. None of us wanted it, so I slapped him when I got angry..."

Lin Wulang was beaten by a little brother, and he couldn't help himself, and the anger he had suffered all morning had accumulated in one place, so he had other thoughts.

"He said that he has despised me today, and my reputation will be ruined if it spreads out. Let alone being his wife, it is normal to be a concubine, so he pulls on me. When I call someone, he covers my mouth. Fortunately, Guanshi Meng is here."

Gu Zhao knew that Lin Wulang must have done something wrong, so why didn't he ask why today he bullied others to teach Lin Wulang a lesson, and blocked Lin Wulang's nonsense calling him injustice.

"I know about this, but I said that Meng Jianyun has something to do with this, but it doesn't have much to do with it. You can ask Meng Jianyun yourself. If you weren't there, what would happen to Lin Wulang today? Meng Jianyun, you can tell yourself. "

Meng Jianyun didn't say a word, acquiescing to what the adults said.

If Brother Lin wasn't present, he was so frightened that he cried, his eyes turned red, and the attack would not have been so light.

At that time, he wanted Lin Goro's life.

"Go and kneel outside." Gu Zhao told people not to stand in front of him, and reflect on himself.

Li Zhouzhou pulled Brother Lin up and said: "You have been wronged today, and this matter will be over. Don't worry about a word that bastard said. Brother Lin is kind-hearted and defends Wang Jian. That bastard should Hit. Brother Lin is marrying someone who is good-natured and loves you."

"Go back, take a break and have a meal and don't think about today's affairs."

Brother Lin wanted to intercede with Guanshi Meng, but when he saw the boss shaking his head at him, he could only go back obediently. He just went out and passed by the door to look at Guanshi Meng more. stand up.

He didn't cry when he was verbally insulted by Lin Goro in the morning. Just now he explained to the boss that he didn't cry, but now he couldn't control his tears. He didn't cry, just quietly.

Meng Jianyun was kneeling clearly, looking up as if he had eyes in the back of his head.

Brother Lin hurriedly wiped away tears, but wiped more and more. He stuttered and apologized in a low voice: "Yes, I'm sorry, it's all because of me that I hurt you—"

"If you're not here, what will happen to Lin Wulang." Meng Jianyun looked flat, with cold eyes, and said without emotion: "I will kill him."

Brother Lin was frightened, and his crying stopped.

"I have nothing to do with you on my knees, let's go." Meng Jianyun withdrew his gaze.

After a while, the movement behind him disappeared, and Brother Lin left.

Meng Jianyun continued to kneel.

In the main hall of the courtyard, Li Zhouzhou poured tea for Mr. Xianggong, thought for a while, and said: "When do you think it is suitable for me to make an appointment with Mrs. Hou next time?"

"...Zhou Zhou." Mr. Gu's voice was dead, completely gone, and with some humming tone, he said to his good friend Zhou Zhou in a low voice: "Look at how Meng Jianyun can piss me off to death. Well, I don’t know what’s wrong with him, Lin Wulang is a bastard, but if he makes a mistake, he’ll be killed if he makes a mistake?”

"If you follow Meng Jianyun's temperament and don't feel happy when you encounter a little bit of discomfort, then you will kill someone, and sooner or later you will be the devil."

"It's too hostile."

Gu Zhao was furious.

Li Zhouzhou knew that Mr. Xianggong is not a person who trains servants, and he really thinks of Xiaomeng. He said: "Xiaomeng stopped today. I heard from my servant that Lin Wulang dislocated his arm and sprained his ankle. It's all wrong." Some minor skin injuries, it can be seen that it is under control."

"That's brother Lin present." Gu Zhao still doesn't know Meng Jianyun's temperament?

"Anyway, it can be stopped, but what my husband said is right. It's time to grind Meng Jianyun's temper. Then kneel for half an hour and yell when Fubao gets home from school. Don't scare Fubao." Li Zhou Zhou said.

Gu Zhao laughed, "Boss Li is really a big boss. He knelt down for half an hour and talked, and it took about two quarters of an hour for Fubao to get home from school, and now it has shrunk by half again."

From kneeling for an hour to half an hour.

"Then Master Gu agrees?" Li Zhouzhou asked.

Gu Daren said: "Naturally, I have to give Boss Li face. I will talk to Meng Jianyun later, and then let him go to an official school to sharpen his mind and punish him by copying the Heart Sutra."

For Meng Jianyun, the latter was worse than being punished to kneel for half an hour.

Li Zhouzhou didn't know, so he thought it would work, and didn't say any more.

But I don't know that Fubao came back late today, Li Da went to pick up his grandson, but he didn't come back for a long time, so the servants ran back first and said: "The old man said: Fubao and I will play football for a while, our grandparents The two went out to eat at a restaurant, so there is no need to wait."

"..." After hearing this, Gu Zhao thought that Tiandu made Meng Jianyun kneel down more.

Li Zhouzhou was speechless, Fubao went to play football, and his father was taking him to a restaurant for dinner. When he came back, he appointed it to be dark, so Meng Jianyun——

"I'll go and have a look."

When Li Zhouzhou left, Gu Zhao closed his eyes and let it go. He has been kneeling for almost 40 minutes?So by default, Zhou Zhou called people up.But after a while, Zhou Zhou came back with a discouraged look on his face.

"Little bastard won't listen to persuasion?" Gu Zhao affirmed.

Meng Jianyun is a stubborn guy, he punished him, and the other party knew why, it was self-punishment, if he didn't punish enough, no one would scream.

Li Zhouzhou nodded and said, "I said you said it. After kneeling for half an hour, he got up and went to eat. He listened and didn't move."

"Then let him kneel, and he will get up when he wakes up." Gu Zhao said.

After waiting for another half an hour, Gu Zhao estimated that he had been kneeling for two hours, and he was a little afraid that his knee would not be broken, so he said to Zhou Zhou: "Forget it, let me go and see, this kid is really a stubborn guy, he is too soft Come hard."

Li Zhouzhou went with him.

As a result, the couple arrived at the door and heard rustling outside the door. Master Gu looked back at Zhou Zhou like a thief, and asked in colloquial words: Are you crying?

Li Zhouzhou replied: It's not like Xiaomeng.

That's really not like it, Gu Zhao has never seen Meng Jianyun cry.

The couple quietly took a look through the gap, good guy, brother Lin knelt in front of Meng Jianyun, the two were facing each other, those who didn't know thought it was a fight, brother Lin cried and hiccupped, and just didn't speak Crying, Meng Jianyun was impatient as ice as ice.

A muffled cry, out of breath.

One looked like he was about to violently suppress with his fist raised.

Master Xiao Gu thought to himself, if Meng Jianyun, a bastard, dares to make a move, he will first peel off Meng Jianyun's skin——

"I got it, I'm up, don't cry." Meng Jianyun finished speaking coldly, then stood up neatly, and stood still after kneeling for two hours.

Brother Lin, who was crying and wronged, stopped crying, but he was not stable when he stood up, and his head almost fell over.

Meng Jianyun gave a pull, and said, "Why are you such a waste, you can fall down after kneeling for a long time."

"I, I haven't eaten, I feel dizzy, my nose hurts and my eyes hurt from crying." Brother Lin said softly.

Meng Jianyun was impatient, "I'll help you go back. Stay away from me in the future."

"Why?" Brother Lin didn't understand, "You are so nice..."

The couple who were eavesdropping behind the door looked at each other, Master Gu opened his mouth, and Li Zhouzhou was also a little worried, "You said..."

"Not necessarily, let's see." Gu Zhaosi said.
