[Red Mansion] Young Master Lin Yan
Chapter 2 The Death of Aunt Liu
side room.
Lin Yan looked at the monkey-like child sleeping soundly in the cradle, and his heart softened.This is the brother connected with him by blood!At this moment, he suddenly realized!
So what if he became the eldest son of the Lin family overnight?
Same name, same appearance, even eating habits are so similar.And he also empathizes with Lin Yan's life experience in the past ten years.If it is said that he is not Lin Yan, even he himself does not believe it!Rather than saying that he transmigrated into Lin Yan, it is better to say that after living here for more than ten years, he suddenly experienced life and death and awakened the memory of another person.
He is still him, so what about Zhuang Zhou's dream of a butterfly?So what about Butterfly Dream Zhuang Zhou?
Now for Zhuang Zhou, he will be Zhuang Zhou; for a butterfly, he will be a butterfly.
"Girl, girl, slow down, be careful of falling!"
Lin Yan was startled, turned his back and secretly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, only to see Daiyu running in with her skirt in hand, "Did my brother give birth? Why didn't anyone wake me up last night!"
Lin Yan laughed, "What does it mean that a younger brother is born? It is my mother who gave birth to a younger brother!"
"Brother knows what I mean, so he will bully me." The eyebrows were raised, her little face was angry and aggrieved, and Lin Yan couldn't help but stretched out her hand to pinch, which unexpectedly provoked Daiyu. Annoyed, watching her fair cheeks fly pink.Lin Yan ran away, and Daiyu's angry coquettish voice came from behind her.
After leaving the house, Lin Yan rubbed his nose awkwardly, glanced at Jia Min's room, and walked towards Jia Min's room, but was stopped by Madam Wei, "Madam is tired and has already rested. Grandpa You must be tired if you stay here in the middle of the night. You should go back and rest, the wife is still thinking about it just now, and I told the old servant to remember to let the uncle go back to sleep in the courtyard."
Lin Yan glanced into the inner room, "Where's father?"
Lin Ruhai took a look at the child and went to look for Jia Min. Because of this, Lin Yan couldn't go in and disturb him, so he could only tease the little one.But according to Mammy Wei, Lin Ruhai isn't here?
Nanny Wei chuckled, "Master is still going to the Yamen! He's already gone to the front!"
Lin Yan frowned, smiled and responded to Madam Wei's words, only said to go back to the courtyard to rest, but turned to go to the direction of the front yard, stopped suddenly at the second door, thought about it in his heart, his face changed, and turned to Turning back, I walked quickly to the woodshed.
When we arrived, things seemed to have come to an end.
Lian Qiao closed her eyes and fell to the ground, looking at her appearance, it was obvious that she had lost her life.Aunt Liu was not much better, the corner of her mouth was still stained with blood, she knelt down on the ground, her complexion was pale, one hand was covering her abdomen, the pain was unbearable, while the other hand crawled unwillingly to grab Lin Ruhai's trouser leg.
"Master, save me! Master, I was wrong, I was wrong! The Zhen family tricked me!"
Lin Ruhai was unmoved at all, his eyes were icy cold, "Do you think the crime you committed can be overwhelmed by a single mistake? You know, Yan'er almost...almost..."
It was as if every word in the last sentence came out from between the teeth, the voice was trembling, but it carried a bone-piercing chill.Aunt Liu couldn't help shaking her whole body, her eyes were frightened and shocked, which turned into mourning and desolation.
"Yan'er? Yan'er! The master only thinks of the uncle and his wife in his eyes, but has he ever thought of me, the child we had three years ago? He is in my stomach, and he was born before he was born... Master can You know, I think of him every day and night? Hasn't the master thought about why there is nothing in the backyard except for the wife for so many years?"
Lin Ruhai was shocked.
Aunt Liu suddenly spewed out another mouthful of blood, and then laughed out loud, the voice was desolate and creepy.In the next moment, she looked at Lin Yan, an indescribable smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, she suddenly burst out, pulled out the hairpin from her head and rushed towards Lin Yan!
Lin Yan was caught off guard, and instinctively took a step sideways to hide. Fortunately, Aunt Liu had been poisoned for a long time, and she was at the end of her strength. After this move, she lost her strength and fell down with a heavy plop. As he spoke, his lips trembled slightly, but there was no movement.
Lin Ruhai was taken aback, and pulled Lin Yan over to check it carefully, and saw that he was not injured, so he sternly reprimanded: "You have been tossing around for most of the night and don't have a good rest, what are you doing here!"
After scolding, seeing that Lin Yan's complexion was not very good, he lost his temper in an instant, and beckoned Lin Song over, "Send the uncle back!"
But Lin Yan twisted towards Lin Ruhai, avoiding Lin Song, and said: "Someone is going to kill my son, shouldn't my son know who did it and what method was used?"
Lin Ruhai choked and gave him a sidelong glance.
Lin Yan saw that his expression had slowed down, and started to push forward. Looking at Lin Ruhai's face, seeing that there were no outsiders around, he whispered, "Father, Aunt Liu came from a humble background. Even if she gave birth to an heir, it would not pose a threat to me. help.
If it was a few years ago, the mother was afraid that the concubine would take the position of the eldest son.But when Aunt Liu served my father, I was quite a few years old.My mother is smart, and she will not fail to understand this truth. "
Lin Ruhai was taken aback for a moment, and immediately understood what Lin Yan meant, and felt a little ridiculous.No one knew better than him what happened back then.
At that time, he had just arrived in Yangzhou from Gusu, and became the censor of salt inspection appointed by His Majesty, entrusted with important tasks.The new official took office three fires, and he took the opportunity to severely attack the salt merchants sent by Zhenpai once, which established his prestige and established his position in Yangzhou today.
The Zhen family suffered a lot, especially when they lost face, how could they not be angry, that child disappeared at this time.
I also blame him, the lineage of the Lin family is thin, and the three generations above him are all single.Therefore, when it comes to heirs, he knows it well and doesn't force it.Already having an outstanding eldest son of all colors in front of him, he was satisfied, and less expected and valued the concubine, which made it easy for the Zhen family to win.
But he didn't expect that the Zhen family would use this matter to separate his wives and concubines, and use Aunt Liu to work for them.
Isn't it ironic?
Lin Ruhai sighed, put away the thoughts in his eyes, and said to Lin Yan: "You understand the truth, but as a father, don't you understand? Besides, I have been married to your mother for more than ten years, how can I be right because of a word or two from others?" She is suspicious?"
Lin Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and praised him generously, "Father is wise!"
A smile flashed in Lin Ruhai's eyes, and he turned to grab Lin Yan's hand, "Let's go! This is not a place to talk! Lin Song, take care of these two people. As for Aunt Liu's family, let's throw them away too!"
Lin Yan trembled and threw away...
Based on his understanding of Lin Ruhai, if he said that, then what was thrown was not a person, but a corpse.
Lin Yan glanced back, but the positions of Lin Ruhai and Lin Song were very ingenious. They were silent and blocked the bodies of the two, especially Aunt Liu's horrific face, which was so unrepentant.
Lin Yan's heart warmed up, and he didn't have any scruples anymore, and said bluntly, "Father, is Aunt Liu the hand of the Zhen family?"
Lin Ruhai paused, recovered in an instant, and continued to move forward, "How do you know it wasn't my hand?"
"Father is not stupid. He still wanted to stab Zhen's family through Aunt Liu. How could he kill her so easily now that things have not been done? I heard that Aunt Liu left the house yesterday. If I guessed right, she It must be a member of the Zhen family to meet.
The Zhen family gave her an idea, taking advantage of last night when her mother gave birth and the house was in a hurry, she found the woodshed and killed Forsythia to silence her.It's a pity that she was too stupid to forget a little bit.Since the Zhen family couldn't tolerate Lianqiao's weakness, how could they leave her weakness.Therefore, I am afraid that when talking with her, the Zhen family has already poisoned her.Once Forsythia died, she would not be able to live. "
There was a smile in Lin Ruhai's eyes, and he said it was a guess, but he hit eight or nine.
As a result, Lin Ruhai did not send him back, but took him to the study instead.When the boy served tea and left, Lin Ruhai said, "What on earth do you want to say? Here, don't worry about the walls having ears, just say it!"
Sure enough, knowing a son is better than a father.
Lin Yan smiled and said: "In May of this year, there was a severe flood in the south of the Yangtze River, and Yangzhou was in distress. The government had to open a warehouse to provide food relief. But the magistrate Yang tried to shirk it several times. It was only later discovered that the rice and grain stored in the official warehouse had not been accounted for. Half of it. And the remaining half is not the new rice harvested last year, but the old rice from previous years, and some even moldy rice.
The emperor was furious and ordered a strict investigation.But the imperial envoy who was sent contracted the epidemic and died as soon as he entered the city.Then, it suddenly came out that Master Tongzhi Su had done this. He stole the rice and sold it to rich merchants, letting them drive up prices when the country was in crisis.Ledger letters, all colors are available.
Prefect Yang ordered the arrest and surrounded the Su family.On the second day, it was reported that Mr. Su committed suicide in fear of crime, and Mrs. Su died of love.The Su family withered overnight, leaving an only daughter who escaped in the chaos, and her whereabouts are unknown.A while ago, the prefect Yang searched the city again in the name of thieves and bandits, but unfortunately found nothing. "
Lin Yan raised his head and looked at Lin Ruhai squarely, "Father, is Su Jin in our house?"
Lin Yan looked at the monkey-like child sleeping soundly in the cradle, and his heart softened.This is the brother connected with him by blood!At this moment, he suddenly realized!
So what if he became the eldest son of the Lin family overnight?
Same name, same appearance, even eating habits are so similar.And he also empathizes with Lin Yan's life experience in the past ten years.If it is said that he is not Lin Yan, even he himself does not believe it!Rather than saying that he transmigrated into Lin Yan, it is better to say that after living here for more than ten years, he suddenly experienced life and death and awakened the memory of another person.
He is still him, so what about Zhuang Zhou's dream of a butterfly?So what about Butterfly Dream Zhuang Zhou?
Now for Zhuang Zhou, he will be Zhuang Zhou; for a butterfly, he will be a butterfly.
"Girl, girl, slow down, be careful of falling!"
Lin Yan was startled, turned his back and secretly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, only to see Daiyu running in with her skirt in hand, "Did my brother give birth? Why didn't anyone wake me up last night!"
