[Comprehensive] A small goal

In the next two months, Bai Tianyu never left the capital, and just as Lin Shiyin guessed, he was always desperately looking for opportunities to find Lin Xian'er.

However, Lin Xian'er's reaction has not changed at all compared to before. According to Lin Shiyin's observation, her impatience towards Bai Baiyu is all real, and it is completely different from the duplicity of the girl who is just in love.

Although Lin Shiyin selfishly hoped that the two of them could be together, she didn't like forcing others to make things difficult. Seeing Lin Xian'er's attitude, she gave up the idea of ​​being a matchmaker.

She is well aware of how much influence she has on Lin Xian'er, so she can fully imagine what kind of attitude Lin Xian'er will show if she really tells Lin Xianer whether you want to try this with Hall Master Bai.

No matter how you look at it, a love based on "completion of tasks" cannot last.

So let's wait and see what happens, anyway, Bai Tianyu's interest in Lin Xian'er is not diminished now, and he runs more and more frequently at Shenhou's Mansion, and doesn't bother to provoke other peach blossoms at all.

When Lin Shiyin and Li Shishi were talking about this, Li Shishi gave her an analysis as a senior emotional expert: "Actually, according to Hall Master Bai's personality, the more your Xianer ignores him, the more he will definitely be more enthusiastic. Look at him. You will know the attitude of Fairy Baiyun who likes him so much."

"...It seems to make sense."

"In short, it's so cheap." Li Shishi concluded, "Men are all like this."

"You are biased!" Lin Shiyin objected.

"...All right, all right, except for your little catcher." Li Shishi rolled his eyes at her, without the chaste and virtuous look that those literati who are still "reminiscing" about her have described her.

To be honest, Lin Shiyin couldn't help but think of Ji Bingyan with her innate contempt for all beings.

So after staring at it for a while, she said by the way: "That friend of Chu Liuxiang and I should return to the capital in a few days, remember to tell Chu Liuxiang not to leave in a hurry when you look back."

"That Mr. Ji?" Li Shishi immediately responded, "Isn't he doing business in the Sixteen States of Yanyun?"

"The business is stable now." Lin Shiyin explained to her, "It was the same way when he went to Jiangnan. When the business stabilized, he cultivated a group of confidants and stopped personally taking charge."

"He's a powerful person." Li Shishi boasted from the bottom of his heart.

"After all, he is Chu Liuxiang's best friend." Lin Shiyin narrowed her down.

But on this kind of topic, she has always been only narrowed down by Li Shishi.

Anti-kill?It does not exist in Li Shishi, who is extremely free and easy about any relationship.

Afterwards, the two chattered all over the place for half a day, from the latest fashion jewelry in Beijing to the newly opened fish stew restaurant on the street near Shenhou Mansion, and finally decided to try it together at night.

It's a pity that the evening has not yet arrived, and Leng Xue, who has not been waiting for her to go home, has come to find her.

Lin Shiyin couldn't bear the thought of him making this trip in vain, so in the end she had to call Chu Liuxiang again to turn her girlfriends' date into a foursome.

Chu Liuxiang was probably very grateful for Leng Xue's arrival, went to sit down in the store, and dragged him to drink several glasses of wine.

Lin Shiyin saw that he drank very restrained at the beginning, so he boldly chatted with Li Shishi and ate fish. After eating and drinking enough to recover, he found that the alcohol smell on his body was quite strong, and she was a little speechless.

She was also embarrassed to blame Chu Liuxiang, after all, it wasn't Chu Liuxiang who forced him to drink.

He guessed he would be happy too.

Because the place where Chu Liuxiang and Li Shishi temporarily lived was quite close to the Shenhou Mansion, they both walked there today and did not use a carriage, so naturally they can only walk back now.

Leng-Blood's figure is stable, and he doesn't look drunk, but in fact, as soon as she moved, he immediately leaned over and grabbed her hand as if his hair had exploded, and even wanted to hug her directly in the fish stew restaurant .

Lin Shiyin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and it took her a long time to coax her back. During this period, she also experienced the double shock of Li Shishi's and Chu Liuxiang's eyes, which can be described as extremely embarrassing.

But no matter how coaxed, he refused to let go of her hand, so in the end the two left the restaurant holding hands.

The only good thing is that he didn't make a fuss on the way back, and let her lead him quietly.

The weather was getting hotter, and this night happened to be a clear moon night. The silver moonlight shone in the middle of the road, illuminating the entire way home, even a little too bright.

Therefore, Lin Shiyin was also in a good mood. After leading him all the way back to the residence, she didn't bother to go to see her daughter first, but pushed him to take a bath.

He refused to let go, and she could only stay here with him.

Under the steaming heat, the smell of alcohol on his body seemed to be more obvious, making her feel a little drunk.

"Be good." She lay down beside the barrel and coaxed him to take off his clothes, her tone could not be softer, for fear that he would not cooperate.

Leng Xue drank too much now, so naturally he would not respond to her.When he finally finished taking off his clothes, Lin Shiyin was sweating all over herself.

She raised her hand to wipe her forehead, then tried the temperature of the water in the bucket for him, and said, "Don't fall asleep, you'll catch a cold if it's cold."

When she said that, she didn't know whether Leng Xue was listening, but when she turned around to go out, she knew that this guy wasn't listening at all.

Not only did he not listen, but he also got angry and refused to let go, and directly dragged her into the barrel with all his strength.

When Lin Shiyin fell into it, she felt that her waist was about to break, and her head was the first to enter the water, hitting the wall of the bucket with a "boom", which made her so angry.

"Don't make trouble, okay..." She sat up covering her head, finally feeling tired.

Apparently he still didn't hear this sentence. Seeing that she was completely soaked, he even happily came up to lick the tip of her nose. Her expression was no different from that of a wolf who saw meat, but she was still sitting in the bucket, unable to even hide. There was nowhere to hide, so he could only let the smell of alcohol linger on him.

"You're licking your own bath water!" she muttered angrily.

But this opening made him pause. Lin Shiyin originally thought that he understood her words and was about to stop, and was happy, but after he paused for a while, he suddenly bit her lip tentatively .

He didn't bite too hard, at least it was much lighter than usual between the sheets, but Lin Shiyin just felt that he was more dangerous than usual at this time, as expected, the next moment he rushed over and pressed her on the barrel The wall bit her lower lip hard.

This immediately made her mouth smell bloody, and she was so angry that she wanted to hit him, but her hands were clamped and she couldn't move, so she could only let him bite from her lips all the way down to her neck, collarbone and——

She was still wrapped in wet clothes, and the part soaked in the water was fine, but the part exposed to the outside of the bucket cooled down after a while, and it was extremely uncomfortable to stick to her body.

He was talking nonsense, but unfortunately, not only could he not speak when he was drunk, but he was also stupid for two degrees. The clothes that usually opened at the touch of a touch could not be untied, and in the end he tore them off with brute force and teeth.

...So I really think of myself as a wolf!

Lin Shiyin couldn't help thinking about whether this was a human or beast in a special sense.

In the end, she didn't bother to break free and resist. Anyway, she couldn't make money, so let him make trouble, and just fall asleep after the trouble.

But to be honest, the space of the tub was a bit small, so that she experienced the feeling that her waist and legs were about to break after a long time.

The most painful thing was that she was already so tired that she still had to struggle to get him back to the bed!

Yes, this guy fell asleep after having a good time!Fall asleep!

Lin Shiyin was so angry that she finally made a decision in her heart when she finally finished her tossing and lying down——

No matter what happens in the future, she will never let him drink again!

After waking up the next day, Leng Xue still felt strange, why did she seem very angry with herself after one night?Still hugging her daughter and saying don't talk to your father...

He didn't know what happened at all, and was quite wronged.

She didn't say anything when she asked Lin Shiyin, she just turned her head with a cold snort.

Of course she is cold-blooded and worried, so she can only ask the seniors what to do.

However, what idea can the three bachelors have, they can only get together and stare at each other.

In the end, he asked him ruthlessly: "It's true that nothing unusual happened before you came back last night?"

After thinking coldly, "...No."

Zhui Ming chimed in: "That's right, didn't you have a good time last night, and they came back holding hands, I saw it all."

Cold-blooded and shocked, because he has no impression at all!

"When?" he asked.

Zhui Ming was also shocked, but he didn't believe that his eyes would be dazzled, so he simply recalled it and nodded his head: "About three quarters of Xu?"

Cold-blooded still had no impression, and scratched his face.

Tie Shou also felt very strange, and asked, "Where did you go before you came back?"

The cold-blooded man could still remember, so he quickly replied: "Eating at a restaurant."

"Have a meal?"

"Well, there are Bandit Commander and Miss Li." At this point, he finally realized the crux of the problem, "...I drank with Bandit Commander."

"So you're drunk?" Zhuiming slapped the table, "No wonder you don't remember!"

However, even if it was confirmed that he was drunk, they couldn't figure out the reason why Lin Shiyin ignored him, and in the end they could only suggest that Leng Xue promise her that he would never drink in the future.

"That's right, women don't like drinking too much." Zhui Ming said.

He said this as if he couldn't find a partner so far because he loved drinking too much, which made Leng Xue very suspicious whether it would be useful.

But in the final analysis, Leng Xue couldn't think of any good solution, so he could only do as he said.

When he returned to his yard, Lin Shiyin was still playing with his daughter, probably because he had just fed the little guy, the collar was a little looser than before, directly exposing the skin below the collarbone, which also made him see the dense marks on it.

Cold-blooded: "..."

What the hell was he doing when he was drunk?

Lin Shiyin had actually heard the sound of his footsteps coming back, but she didn't raise her eyes, she just cared about playing with her daughter, and didn't pause until he walked over.

After waiting for a whole morning, she didn't have much breath left, but seeing his cute and nervous appearance, she felt that it would be okay to hang on for a while longer.

"Are you still angry?" He sat next to her and asked in a low voice.

"What do you think?" She threw the question back and tried her best to restrain her expression from laughing.

"...I won't drink in the future." He suddenly raised his head and made a serious promise.

"You remember?" Lin Shiyin was a little surprised.

He shook his head and said honestly, "No."

The moment the words fell, he reached out and touched her collarbone covered with bite marks, blushing for a long time, probably wanting to say something to apologize, but he just couldn't hold it back.

Seeing him like this, Lin Shiyin couldn't help laughing out loud, and couldn't stop laughing, causing the daughter on the bed to keep blinking at her, as if wondering what he and she were laughing at.

Cold-blooded is also curious, but more happy than curious.

At least she wasn't angry anymore.

After laughing for a long while while supporting her waist, Lin Shiyin cleared her throat and said, "You should drink less wine."

Nodded coldly: "Yeah."

She raised her eyes, bit her lip and said, "But I haven't completely let go of the anger from last night."

Cold-blooded: "...?"

Lin Shiyin leaned over with a very serious expression: "So, howling like a wolf?"

Cold-blooded: "?!"

She was serious: "Anyway, you always treat yourself like a wolf when you're drunk, and you won't let go if you bite."

Cold-blooded: "..." Oh my god.

Although he understood why she was angry before, the cold-blooded person at the moment couldn't be happy at all.

After all, it's too shameful to learn howling wolves!

But if she doesn't learn, what if she doesn't feel relieved?

Thinking of this, he took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

The moment he was about to open his mouth, something soft blocked it.

Familiar touch, familiar aroma, and familiar sweetness.

When she opened her eyes, she was smiling: "I'm just kidding, I'm not mad at you."

Leng Xue only felt that this smile directly touched his heart, and he couldn't help but curl his lips.

It's a pity that when the atmosphere was so good, Leng Xi, who hadn't gotten the attention of her parents, quit, and burst into tears, which made both of them flustered, and the ambiguity disappeared immediately.

Although her daughter is still completely clueless, Leng Xue always feels that she did it on purpose.

……

After that, Leng Xue really seldom touches wine, and even when the four brothers are together, they can only sip half a glass at most.

It's funny to say that the idea of ​​guaranteeing not to drink alcohol was clearly given to him by Zhui Ming. After he really did this, it was also Zhui Ming who shouted that this would not give their lonely family a life.

Leng Xue has nothing to do with this senior brother, but fortunately, Wu Qing helps him push back.

"If you envy, you can also start a family." Wuqing said so.

"I really want to." Zhui Ming let out a long sigh, "I always suspect that all the luck of our master's family is taken by him alone."

Cold-blooded: "..."

Can this also be my fault? !

Now even Tie Shou couldn't stand listening, and said with a smile: "It seems that you really want to get married."

Zhui Ming clicked his tongue and drank several more glasses.

At the end of a meal, the one who drank the most was naturally the first to get drunk.

Leng Xue drank the least, so he offered to send him back to his room, but as soon as he stood up, he was ruthlessly stopped: "Let Second Junior Brother go, I have something to tell you."

Hearing his serious tone, cold-blooded couldn't help being a little puzzled: "What's the matter?"

This matter is not complicated to say, but how to speak is indeed a difficult problem, otherwise there is no need to talk about it in person, because Lin Shiyin is involved.

After Fang Yingkan was arrested and brought to justice, the imperial court did not deal with him immediately, after all, his status was indeed unusual.Some time ago, his adoptive father finally arrived in the capital and learned what he had done these years.

He didn't mean to help the adopted son, but for the sake of father and son, he asked him, is there anything else you want to do?

Fang Yingkan said he wanted to see someone.

Who this person is, you don't need to be ruthless and cold-blooded to know.

"It's okay if she doesn't want to see her, you don't have to force it." Wuqing said, "I'm just entrusted by someone to ask."

"...I'll ask her." Leng Xue was not in a good mood when he heard the news, but he still nodded. He didn't want Lin Shiyin to meet Fang Yingkan, but he also didn't directly refuse Lin Shiyin.

Looking back, he told Lin Shiyin exactly what he had told him ruthlessly, and asked her if she would go.

Lin Shiyin thought about it seriously for a while, then shook her head: "Let's not go, I have nothing to say to him."

Seeing it or not seeing it doesn't make much sense, so let's just let it go.

And compared to Fang Yingkan, a person who has always made her wary, the happiness and anger of the people around her is more important.

At this point, Fang Yingkan's incident can be regarded as completely uncovered.

And Ji Bingyan, whom she had been looking forward to for a long time, also returned to the capital at this time.

At first, Lin Shiyin thought that he came back alone. After all, he said in the letter that his confidants would stay in Youzhou and continue to help him take care of the business, so she took it for granted that Li Hongxiu would not come back with him.

To her surprise, Ji Bingyan not only brought Li Hongxiu back to the capital, but also brought another beautiful boy who looked about the same age as Li Hongxiu.

Lin Shiyin couldn't help being very curious: "Who is this?"

It was Li Hongxiu who answered her doubts: "This is Brother Ji's adopted brother, A Fei."

Lin Shiyin almost spit out a mouthful of tea, what? !hooligan? !Is it the hooligan she knows? !

Probably her expression was so exciting that both Li Hongxiu and A Fei were very surprised.

Ji Bingyan also felt strange: "What's wrong?"

Lin Shiyin straightened her face and said: "It's nothing, I'm just surprised that you can also be sworn brothers."

This reason is barely plausible, so Ji Bingyan also believed it, and explained to her: "I happened to pick it up in Xishan, Youzhou, and I picked it up. I can't just ignore it."

"That's why Brother Ji is not forgiving." Li Hongxiu smiled, "Back then he thought that Brother Chu adopted me and Tian'er Rongrong because he had too much time to spare, but when it was his turn, he also softened his heart."

"When will you remember what I said casually, my little aunt—" Ji Bingyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "It's too vengeful."

"I just want to praise you for being as kind-hearted as Brother Chu." Li Hongxiu blinked.

"Then I really thank you." Ji Bingyan said angrily.

Lin Shiyin sat there and listened to these two people talking non-stop, she was very pleased.

She still remembered how depressed Li Hongxiu was when he left the capital. It was really not easy to recover to this level now, and Ji Bingyan contributed a lot!

After a few people sat together and chatted about family matters, Lin Shiyin finally confirmed that Ji Bingyan's younger brother was the A Fei she knew, and then she couldn't help shaking her head at the messy relationship.

But after thinking about it carefully, I feel that Li Shishi is already with Chu Liuxiang, so what does it matter if Ji Bingyan and A Feicheng are sworn brothers!

Oh yes, Chu Liuxiang.

She hurriedly turned to Li Hongxiu and said, "Your elder brother Chu is also in the capital recently. I just sent someone to call him, and I think he will be there in a while."

Li Hongxiu was very pleasantly surprised: "Really, that's great, is the senior sister there?"

Lin Shiyin: "... here." Are you impatient to eat dog food!

Li Hongxiu continued: "Since they went out to sea together, I haven't seen them again."

Ji Bingyan interjected in a timely manner: "What, they haven't separated yet?"

Lin Shiyin: "..."

After a while, she explained: "Actually, they were separated, but Chu Liuxiang was lucky."

The implication is that it was Li Shishi who proposed to break up. Ji Bingyan understood, and almost spit out the tea in her mouth, then patted the table and laughed.

Knowing him for so long, it was the first time Lin Shiyin saw him laughing like this, and she couldn't help feeling in her heart, Chu Liuxiang is really miserable, not only talking about a girlfriend who wants to break up at any time, but also such a bad friend.

While waiting for Chu Liuxiang and Li Shishi to come over, the two had a detailed chat about the business in the capital, Jiangnan, and the border between Song and Liao in the past two years.

The two people's views are actually the same. In terms of hot pot chains, they have achieved the ultimate, and they just need to continue to maintain it, because they have not been able to open up a larger market.

But the business has reached the level of the two of them, of course, they will not be satisfied with only being in one industry.

So when Ji Bingyan came back this time, she did intend to discuss with her what to do next.

Regarding this issue, Lin Shiyin has carefully considered it many times over the past few years, and has collected a lot of useful information through the news network established in the past few years.

Mentioning it at this moment can quite say a thing or two.

The two who cooperated seamlessly thought of going together again.

Now the weather is smooth, and there will be no worries of war in a hundred years. The most profitable thing is to do some foreign trade with countries with relatively poor natural resources, like he opened a hot pot restaurant on the border between Song and Liao.

So at the end of the chat, Lin Shiyin said: "You can't eat too much, let's set a small goal first, such as monopolizing the tea and silk business in the Southwest, and earning 300 million taels a year."
