The Guozijian stipulates that students have vacations on the first and fifteenth day of each new year.

On the first day of March, Lin Qing hurried home from school early, because Lin Ruhai was going to take office soon, and the family took advantage of this opportunity to have a reunion dinner.

After the meal, according to the usual practice, everyone held a cup of tea and sipped them in silence.

Suddenly, I heard a report from outside, saying that Baoling Hou had arrived.

When Lin Ruhai heard that the historian had come, he was quite surprised.

His family has no friendship with historians, why...

Regardless of the doubts in his heart, Lin Ruhai hurried to the front hall to entertain Shi Nai.

Before Shi Nai came here, he was already prepared to bear Lin Ruhai's anger, so when faced with Lin Ruhai's polite and thoughtful hospitality, he was a little at a loss.

Shi Nai raised his heart, deliberated, and told Lin Ruhai one by one the words he had prepared.

Sure enough, Lin Ruhai's complexion gradually turned ugly, but it was just because of his affection that he couldn't get angry.

"The matter of Jia's house is due to my family's bad girl Yun, and has nothing to do with everyone in Jia's family. She is still young, and she lost her parents since she was a child. She has been growing up in front of me, and she is no different from my own. Now she committed this crime. The fault is that I, as an uncle, can't teach well!"

After saying that, she was about to get up and kneel down to Lin Ruhai.

Then Lin Ruhai can make him kneel?

As an official of the imperial court, Shi Nai's status is no lower than him. If he kneels, it will not be known what to say about him outside.

Shi Nai, who was about to kneel down as soon as he got up, couldn't help saying: "Oh, brother Shi! What are you doing? It's really embarrassing to me!"

Ordinarily, Lin Ruhai was just a civil servant, and his body was weak, so in terms of strength, he couldn't compare to Shi Nai.

But on the one hand, Shi Nai was afraid that he would hurt the other party with brute force; on the other hand, he knew in his heart that he was just pretending to show his sincerity. It will not end well for both sides.

After all, no matter how you say it, Shi Nai is also a Marquis, representing the face of his historian, if he is not in the limelight now, he will not come to the door to "make an apology" in person.

Since Lin Ruhai is willing to give him this step, then he would "be obedient rather than respectful".

After some tugging and tugging between the two, Shi Nai finally got down to his seat after half pushing and half pushing.

"Brother Lin, don't worry, I have already reprimanded that girl severely before I came here. After returning, I will let Zhuojing teach her the rules and etiquette! Good lady, you don't have to be as ignorant as a wild girl. Courtesy!"

In the end, he sighed again: "It must be Mrs. Lin who is kind-hearted and doesn't care about it, and the county master is magnanimous and generous, and he has a style of a family. I can't blame even the Holy Majesty for his praise. It turns out that the lady herself is a model of a famous lady!"

Although Lin Ruhai knew in his heart that Shi Nai was talking flattery, no matter if he was sincere or not, he was always happy when he heard compliments for his daughter from others.

It is also not easy to think about the other party. The dead brother died young. Although he inherited the elder brother's title, he also took on the heavy responsibility of raising his niece.However, this niece is not a worry-free person, she doesn't miss them at all, and in Jia's house, everyone mentions that her uncle and aunt "abuse" her.

Thinking that after he left, Lin Qing and Daiyu were also uncles and nephews, so they couldn't help feeling compassionate.

Now, one has confidence in his heart, and the other feels compassion.Therefore, the subsequent conversation was very smooth, and the embarrassing incident just now did not happen again.

After Lin Ruhai came back, seeing Lin Qing and Daiyu still sitting in their original positions, he couldn't help asking: "Why are you two still here?"

Lin Qing and Daiyu looked at each other, and then smiled at Lin Ruhai: "Brother, Yu'er just mentioned to me about the Shi family girl. I think, instead of listening to outsiders' one-sided words, you might as well ask Yu'er yourself, which will make you feel better." Be clear."

Lin Ruhai didn't speak, just sat down on the main seat, and drank a cup of tea in silence.

"Say it."

Daiyu glanced at Lin Qing, who nodded with a smile.

With the bottom line in her mind, Daiyu told Lin Ruhai exactly what happened at Jia's house that day, including the removal of lowly status from senior officials to good ones.

What he said was very objective, basically not mixed with personal emotions, as if he was talking about something he had heard from elsewhere and had nothing to do with him.

However, the calmer Daiyu's tone was and the more objective her angle was, the more ugly Lin Ruhai's face became.

After Daiyu finished explaining the whole matter in detail, Lin Ruhai was finally overwhelmed, and threw the teacup in his hand heavily on the table.

"What a historian! I used to think of it as a child and ignorant, but who knew it was a bad-hearted person! Such a good man of the Marquis actually brought up such a bad-hearted seed! He really deserves it..."

Lin Ruhai has always been an elegant person, so it can be seen that he is so angry that he can say this!

Lin Qing saw that Lin Ruhai was a little "unscrupulous", afraid that he would be angry, so he hurriedly said: "Brother, you don't have to be angry with that stupid thing. She can openly disrespect the county magistrate in public today. There may be a bigger disaster in the future."

After thinking about it, he sneered again: "Master Shi said that he taught her the rules at home. Don't you know that 'the country is easy to change and the nature is hard to change'? It's time to get married in a few years, and it's time to make the rules. If you really should The phrase: 'Mother-in-law stomps her feet - it's too late'!"

Lin Ruhai didn't answer Lin Qing's words, but just looked at Daiyu, "Why did you want to let Xiaodan out of school?"

As soon as these words came out, even Lin Qing who was at the side couldn't help putting away his teasing heart and pricked up his ears to listen.

To be honest, he originally wanted to ask Daiyu this question, but just as he was about to ask, Lin Ruhai came in.

"I see that Xiao Dan is as old as me even though she is a small character. What's rare is that she can sing better than those famous characters! I was very happy, and saw that she looked a bit like me, and even more so. I feel connected."

When Lin Qing saw that Daiyu said this, she was not angry at all, but with a little compassion, and remembered her angry appearance when Shi Xiangyun openly said that she looked like an official in the original text. From the very beginning, did you intend to recognize Xiao Dan as a relative?"

Daiyu shook her head, "If Miss Shijia hadn't said that openly, I would never have thought of asking for a relative for her."

"I'm ashamed to say it." Daiyu blushed and smiled firmly: "At first, I was afraid that other people would take up the words of the Shijia girl, and that would be really shameless. So I was so quick-witted that I begged my ancestors to recognize her as a relative." , wanting to change the topic. Unexpectedly, Sister Feng is clever, she understood my thoughts immediately, and hurriedly pointed her out to Lin Zhixiao's family to be her daughter, and the matter will be considered complete at this point."

After hearing this, Lin Qing couldn't help clapping her hands and laughing.

"Qing'er?" Lin Ruhai frowned.

Lin Qing waved his hands, still with a smile on his face, without saying a word, he bowed his hands to Lin Ruhai, and went out the door.

Seeing Lin Qing's unusual appearance, Lin Ruhai hurriedly called him, "Qing'er! Where are you going?"

Lin Qing still didn't reply, Lin Ruhai looked at Lin Qing who was drifting away, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper.Out of worry, Lin Ruhai ordered the subordinates to follow Lin Qing quietly, and if they found anything unusual, they would tie Lin Qing back immediately.

But Lin Qing didn't care about these things, walked alone to the street outside the Lin Mansion, looked at the bustling crowd, found a bare stone pier and sat down.

It was still spring, and the air was still cool, and Lin Qing felt a burst of chill as soon as he sat down.

But he didn't care, he raised his head and squinted at the sun in the sky.

Well, the sun is fine.

Lin Qing sat here for a while before calming down.

Looking at the bustling and lively market in front of him, thinking about all the things that have happened around him in recent days, he always feels that there is something called "fate" pushing him forward in the dark.

Occasionally, he is also confused, is everything he is doing meaningful?Has Daiyu's situation improved because of his arrival?

Before today, Lin Qing was not sure.

But just now, when he saw Daiyu narrating the matter of "Lingguan" in such a calm and calm tone, Lin Qing firmly believed for the first time that his arrival was meaningful, and his heart that had been tense all the time was gradually being ironed out. Come.

This feeling is like a newborn child that I have worked so hard to raise. In a blink of an eye, I saw that she can walk. The kind of gratification can only be felt and cannot be expressed in words.

Perhaps, from the moment Daiyu's frowning eyebrows gradually relaxed, things changed quietly...

Lin Qing was immersed in his own thoughts and couldn't extricate himself, when one of them rode his horse to Lin Qing.

Because the brake was too hasty, there were waves of smoke and dust.

Lin Qing was so choked that she quickly covered her nose with her hands, then got up and took a few steps back.

"Ruqing!"

The man on the horse shouted angrily at Lin Qingzhong.

Lin Qing looked up.

"Evergreen?"

After Shen Gui calmed down the horse, he jumped off the horse, and then led the horse to Lin Qing, "I went to the Lin Mansion to look for you just now, and the people standing outside said you were coming here."

"Looking for me?" Lin Qing pointed to herself.

"Is there something urgent?"

"I can't come to you if there is nothing important? Really!"

Shen Gui smiled and punched Lin Qing's chest.

After all, Shen Gui was a martial arts practitioner, but Lin Qing was just a "weak scholar". Even though Shen Gui himself felt that he didn't use much force, he still "beat" him hard.

Lin Qing also knew that this was Shen Gui's way of expressing intimacy, so he could only helplessly rub his aching chest that was beaten.

"Where? You can come whenever you want."

The two just stood on the street and chatted for a while, and made some family gossip.

Finally, Shen Gui said: "I have an appointment with a friend in Hele Lou, do you want to go together?"

"Friend? Do I know you?"

Shen Gui shook his head, "You probably don't know each other. However, I think you should get along well."

"That's interesting. You haven't met before, how do you know we'll get along?"

Shen Gui rolled his eyes, pretending to be mysterious and said: "Well, the secret must not be leaked, anyway, you will know when you go. How about it? Do you want to go together?"

Although Lin Qing thought it was funny that Shen Gui used his upright and resolute face to make that set of "cunning" expressions, but he was more or less curious by his words, and it happened that he was also idle today.

"Go! Why don't you go? Evergreen's invitation, I will definitely accompany you!"
