Seeing Mei's appearance like this, Gu Qinglin felt a little irritated in his heart. In his opinion, Mei's methods were very low-handed.Simple and effective, but it also leaves a bad impression.

This is also good, compared to those who really play tricks on their minds, such a Mei family is easier to deal with.

The kind of person who is really difficult to deal with won't cry and say these words that ruin the reputation of her stepson herself. She can take any good or good reputation, and push everything to the subordinates who have nothing to do with her.Even when necessary, he would personally speak up to defend his stepson, only saying that he did not do his job well, and attributed all the faults to himself, and occasionally showed a little bit of grievance to be discovered by insignificant people.In stark contrast, she is the most innocent and kind-hearted. She uses various names to make the people she hates completely indisputable, and she can't turn herself around.

People who do this need a lot of patience and a deep investment in the early stage. Obviously, Mei Shi is not so calm.

Gu Qinglin took a step forward and wanted to say something, but at this moment Lin Jinwen stood up suddenly and snorted coldly.Gu Qinglin knew that Lin Jinwen was implying that he should not speak, and he also knew that Lin Jinwen was doing it for his own good.After all, he is the youngest brother who has just married into the Lin family. He contradicts his nominal mother, and will always be said to be bullying and disrespectful to the mistress.

When Gu Qinglin was in Wen's house before, he paid great attention to these small things, for fear that if he made a mistake, others would find out and talk about it.But seeing Lin Jinwen's behavior recently, he suddenly felt that the most important thing was to live comfortably.The most important thing is that the environment he is in now is completely different from that of the Wen family.

In the Wen family, although Mrs. Wen loved him dearly, she also valued the face of the Wen family.If he went too far, Mrs. Wen would not protect him. In the Lin family, Lin Jinwen would never let him have these worries.Lin Jinwen would always settle the matter with a sarcasm before he opened his mouth, and he would never get a bad reputation on himself.

Thinking of this, Gu Qinglin looked at Lin Jinwen's handsome face with extraordinary heroic spirit, his eyes were in a daze.He thought that Lin Jinwen was the gentlest person he had ever met besides his own parents.And now, this man is the father of the child in his womb.

Seeing Mei's aggrieved look, Lin Jinwen almost laughed out of anger.He narrowed his eyes and said casually: "What do you mean Ma'am? Father punished Lin Wenjuan, that means he did something wrong. Madam is dissatisfied and should go and tell father, why are you here crying in my yard." Called Lin Jinwen Anyone who has dealt with him knows that he is really angry with such an attitude.

Naturally, Mei didn't understand him, and she shed tears even more fiercely, sobbing: "If it wasn't for the young master and Wenjuan saying something that shouldn't be said, how could he go against the master. Regarding the matter of younger brothers and sisters, the elder The young master should sue the old lady, the master and me, right? Tell Wen Juan that he is young and energetic and doesn’t understand the complexity of people’s hearts, won’t he be confused?”

Lin Jinwen laughed loudly, he nodded in agreement and said: "Madam is right, I really shouldn't open my mouth about this matter. Don't worry, Madam, I will go and take back what I said." After saying this, he lifted his foot and left .

Mrs. Mei was taken aback by his attitude, and she didn't shed tears. She didn't understand what Lin Jinwen was going to say.How can you take back what you said?However, she felt that something was wrong with Lin Jinwen, and since the main character had left, she couldn't continue singing, so she turned around and left.

Gu Qinglin understood Lin Jinwen quite well, and he was not a loser at all. Taking advantage of his bad reputation, he did a lot of things to make others feel comfortable.And judging by his appearance just now, he was obviously angry.

Thinking of this, Gu Qinglin stepped up to follow.

Yuzhu and Sanqi followed behind Gu Qinglin, Yuzhu said softly: "Young Master, you are very heavy now, you don't need to go at all, if something happens to you, you can't help. You If you are worried about Master, why not wait in the yard. Sanqi and I are waiting at the door, and you will know when Master comes back."

Gu Qinglin understood the meaning of Yuzhu's words, she was telling herself not to go to the muddy water.He has the most legitimate reason, he is pregnant.He was sitting in the yard waiting, which was also an expression of caring. If he said a few words of worry, with Lin Jinwen's temperament, he would definitely not feel that he was going too far.

But Gu Qinglin was unwilling to do this. Leaving aside the absurd things before they got married, since he entered the Lin family, Lin Jinwen has been carefully protecting him, never making him wronged or suffering.He could see that Lin Jinwen was trying his best to ease the relationship between the two, and he could also see that Lin Jinwen didn't like the younger brother, but he was trying to accept himself.

Both he and Lin Jinwen were victims of that incident, but the world was more harsh on the younger brother, and all the gossip was directed at him.Facing Lin Jinwen, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he never took any resentment on Lin Jinwen.That was not his fault, nor Lin Jinwen's fault.

Lin Jinwen is working hard, and he also needs to respond, otherwise, sooner or later, the patience between each other will be worn away.What's more, he also wants Lin Jinwen to see his goodness and always remember his efforts.

Gu Qinglin thought so in her heart, but did not respond to Yuzhu's words.Seeing him walking in a hurry, Yuzhu knew that he had made up his mind, so she didn't want to dissuade him any more, thinking in her heart that she must protect Gu Qinglin after encountering a sudden situation.

Lin Jinwen came out of the courtyard and went straight to the ancestral hall.There were people guarding the gate of the ancestral hall. Seeing Lin Jinwen so angry, they didn't dare to step forward to stop them. They could only watch as Lin Jinwen kicked the door directly.The smarter one left quickly after Lin Jinwen entered the door to report to Lin Songren.

When Lin Jinwen entered, he saw Lin Wenjuan kneeling obediently and straightly under the ranks of the Lin family's ancestors, without two futons under his knees.Although Lin Jinwen felt a little pain in his leg when he saw this scene, it didn't stop him from dragging Lin Wenjuan to the door.

Lin Wenjuan was a little surprised when he saw Lin Jinwen, but when he pulled him by the collar and pulled him towards the door, Lin Wenjuan couldn't help but broke free and said, "Brother, what are you doing? You have something to say." , my father asked me to kneel here to reflect, if he doesn’t speak, I won’t leave.”

It's just that Lin Wenjuan is a white-faced scholar after all, and he doesn't have much strength to say so. He has never been treated so roughly.He was dragged out of the ancestral hall by Lin Jinwen in a daze and thrown at the door.

"Who told you to leave? When I'm done, you can go in and continue kneeling." Lin Jinwen looked at him and sneered twice, and he clasped his fingers tightly.When Lin Wenjuan was struggling to stand up, Lin Jinwen squatted down and pressed his shoulder and said with a sneer, "Now, spit out what I told you, and I will take it back. If you don't spit it out, I will beat you."

Lin Wenjuan didn't understand what kind of flair Lin Jinwen was playing, and what he was messing around with, so he said, "Brother, don't go too far, or I won't be polite." Lin Wenjuan was full of anger now , after hearing Lin Jinwen's words, he felt a little anxious.The second prince said that he was slow to react at best, but at worst he was a fool.

How could he just watch Lin Wenxiu jump into that fire pit, he wanted to discuss countermeasures with Lin Songren, and find a way to solve this matter before it was fully settled.

Lin Songren was not in the study at that time but in Mei's courtyard. Lin Wenjuan went to look for him again. He was very anxious and told what he had heard.Mei Shi and Lin Songren were naturally surprised, Lin Wenjuan said: "Father, Mother, if this is true, what should we do?"

Lin Songren said with a green face: "The emperor speaks well, what can I do?"

Mrs. Mei didn't say a word. Seeing Lin Songren and Mrs. Mei's attitude, Lin Wenjuan became a little anxious, so he asked whether they thought the second concubine's name was famous enough and wanted to make Lin Wenxiu send it in.

Lin Songren slapped him on the spot, and then had someone push him into the ancestral hall. It was useless for Mrs. Mei to plead for mercy.

Lin Wenjuan admitted that his words were a bit too much at the time, but the anger in his heart had nowhere to vent.Because Lin Songren looked like he was thinking at that time, and he didn't seem to be in a hurry at all.

When Lin Wenjuan was thinking about this, he saw Lin Jinwen hehe again, and he said, "You two, who is being polite to me? Come on, why don't you be polite to me? Tell me, I will help you." you."

@@@

When Gu Qinglin and Mei Shi arrived, Lin Jinwen was fighting lively with Lin Wenjuan.The boy on the side stepped forward to fight at first, and then was beaten up by the two together, and now his face is swollen.

Lin Wenjuan was confused by Lin Jinwen's head, and it was the first time that he fought with someone without regard for face.But after all he is an ancient young man, he doesn't know where to strike when he fights, he can only punch randomly, it depends on God's will whether he hits or not.

In contrast, he was beaten by Lin Jinwen more times.

"What are you doing?" Mei looked at the two and screamed.When Lin Wenjuan saw Mei's hand loosen, Lin Jinwen took the opportunity to kick him to the ground.Lin Wenjuan's eyes turned red, he got up and fought with Lin Jinwen again.

Mei hurriedly asked someone to pull her away, but she was surrounded by maidservants, none of them were strong.Gu Qinglin said to Sanqi: "Go and pull away the second young master. As a younger brother, how can he fight with his elder brother? It's too much." In a fight like this, of course you can't pull Lin Jinwen away. It's called a side frame.

Mei Shi looked at Gu Qinglin and put the shit bowl on Lin Wenjuu's head without blinking an eye. She was trembling with anger, and almost roared to the maid beside her, "Go, pull away the first young master, the second young master!" You are young, so it is reasonable to be taught by your brother for no reason."

At this moment, Lin Songren and Mrs. Lin arrived one after another.

Lin Songren said bitterly: "Stop it all." Lin Wenjuan was still a little afraid of Lin Songren, when he heard his voice, his momentum and fists completely softened, and Lin Jinwen also took the opportunity to stop.

Mrs. Lin's pace was slower, and she was here now. Seeing Lin Wenjuan's distressed appearance, she sat down on the ground and wailed: "My poor grandson, what happened to you. You are good!" If you don’t read books, don’t go to the banquet with your classmates, why do you have to learn these things from your elder brother.”

Lin Songren clasped his hands tightly. He looked at Lin Jinwen and Lin Wenjuan and gritted his teeth: "You two go to the study with me."

Lin Jinwen didn't move, he knew that if he left like this, the matter would not be clear.He looked at Lin Wenjuan and said, "Although we have different mothers, I am also your eldest brother in name, and you dare to hit me first."

Lin Wenjuan looked at him and was stunned, Lin Jinwen said coldly: "Didn't you do it first?"

Lin Wenjuan said with an angry face: "Yes, but you are angry at me for doing this."

"If you do it, do it, why don't you justify it?" Lin Jinwen sarcastically suppressed Mrs. Lin's wailing loudly, "If you respected me as your elder brother in your heart, you wouldn't go to Madam and make up me, saying that I provoke you The father-son relationship with my father made my wife come to me and cry and make the whole Lin family know about it."

"You guys know that my husband is pregnant, so you can't be frightened, and you still do this. If something happens, who will be responsible for you? And Lin Wenjuan, my wife kept saying, I shouldn't bring up the matter about my sister in front of you. You said in front of your father and grandmother, what did I say, so why did you become a solicitor? How much enmity do you have with me when you say that to your wife? Since you dare to speak nonsense, as the elder brother , I have the obligation to teach you and correct you. Also, I still say the same thing, what I said to you, you have to spit it out to me now, and I have to take it back, or Madam will not be satisfied."

Lin Jinwen's words burst out like thunder on the ground, shaking Mrs. Lin's wails to silence.

Lin Wenjuan looked at Lin Jinwen in a daze, and suddenly he understood what Lin Jinwen was trying to do with such nonsense.If he doesn't refute what he said just now, then he is a generation who is full of lies and beat his elder brother. He is a scholar, and he will take the imperial examination in the future. With such a life, his career will come to an end.

But if he refuted it, it would prove that Mrs. Mei did it on purpose, and the consequence would be that Mrs. Mei deliberately treated her stepson harshly by making trouble. This is a big excuse.Lin Jinwen asked them to choose who to keep.

And even if this matter didn't get out to the Lin family compound, Lin Wenxiu would still hear about it now that there is such a big commotion, and she would definitely feel jealous towards the Mei family.Lin Jinwen's strategy is extremely simple, but it kills three birds with one stone.

There was silence in front of the ancestral hall. The warm wind was blowing past, but everyone felt a little cold.

Lin Songren sighed and said, "Jinwen, I also know about this matter. Your mother didn't mean what you thought, she just heard about it suddenly, and lost her sense of control for a while..."

"Father." Lin Jinwen interrupted Lin Songren's words with heavy eyes, and said in a gloomy tone: "My mother's tablet is inside, and she is watching."

Lin Jinwen continued with a half-smile: "If father and mother are not happy about this matter, they can go wild with the emperor, they can cry, plead, and fight with the emperor. The matter has not been settled yet, and the emperor is not such an unreasonable person. What does it mean to make excuses for others for no reason? Can I tell myself in the future that this is my fault, and someone can enjoy the benefits with peace of mind? I really dare to think, anyway, I have an injury on my face, and I will be there tomorrow The emperor is on duty."

"Jinwen, it's okay if you mess around on weekdays." Lin Songren's face looked as if he had aged a few years, and he said in a deep voice: "But we are all a family, and we can't leave Lin alone. I will deal with this matter." Find out who is gossiping in front of Madam, and I will give you an explanation."

Lin Jinwen ignored him, he walked up to Gu Qinglin and said, "Didn't it scare you and the child?"

Gu Qinglin's face was not very good-looking, he said: "My stomach is a little bloated."

Lin Jinwen said: "I'll take you back, Sanqi, and ask someone to ask the doctor to take the pulse of the young master." After saying this, he held Gu Qinglin's hand and walked towards his yard.

Lin Wenjuan looked at him straight, with a gloomy and inexplicable expression. Lin Jinwen taught him a good lesson today, and he might never forget Lin Jinwen's mocking eyes in his life.

Lin Jinwen didn't care about Lin Wenjuan's gaze at all.Mrs. Mei is the mistress of this back house, and the things she did are indeed shocking, but it is impossible for him to do anything to a woman, especially this woman is his mother in name.He could not care about his own reputation, but Gu Qinglin couldn't.

He has always done things like a snake, and Mei's most concerned thing is Lin Wenjuan.He and Lin Wenjuan had no grudges or grudges, and Lin Wenjuan's temperament was even quite upright. It was obvious that he didn't like the dandy and incompetent himself, but he didn't do anything to add insult to injury.

But if time goes back, Lin Jinwen will still do this, otherwise Mei will never see some things clearly.It is too convenient for her to do things in the inner house, she will always instigate Mrs. Lin to find something, and she will always do some disgusting things.

Lin Jinwen has long been tired of Mei's and Mrs. Lin's distorting, nonsensical temperaments, but now he is better, taking this opportunity, his ears are clean.

After Lin Jinwen and Gu Qinglin left, Lin Songren ordered Mrs. Lin to be sent back to his yard.Then he kicked Lin Wenjuan hard and said, "Didn't I tell you to kneel inside and reflect? Get the hell out of here now, and come out when your head is clear."

Lin Wenjuan stubbornly refused to go in, he wanted to hear from Lin Songren about how to deal with the Mei family.Seeing his attitude, Lin Songren directly waved his hands and asked the servant to push him in.

Lin Wenjuan struggled so hard that he could only watch the door close behind him.

After dealing with these things, Lin Songren looked at Mrs. Mei, and said, "Come with me."

Mei's body trembled, Lin Songren's expression was very calm, but she felt very scared, she had never seen Lin Songren's expression like this.

Back in the backyard, Lin Songren asked all the servants in the room to retreat. He looked at the nervous Mei and slowly said a word: "Stupid, although you are a concubine, you are also from everyone. When did you become like your mother?" So arrogant?"

Mrs. Mei raised her head hastily. Lin Songren would never say anything wrong with Mrs. Lin, but now he said that, he must be very angry.

Lin Songren looked at the incense burner in the room and said indifferently: "The emperor can't hide this matter. If you really care about the future of the family members, then you can copy the Buddhist scriptures behind closed doors day and night. During this period, you can copy the Buddhist scriptures with peace of mind. Hand over the pair of cards and everything to Jinwen's husband, and let him manage the internal affairs of the Lin family."

When Mrs. Mei heard that she was not only under house arrest but also deprived of her housekeeping rights, she cried out in tears: "Master..."

Lin Songren continued without raising his head: "If Gu Qinglin doesn't want to take care of it, then leave things to Aunt Bai and Aunt Hong. The Lin family's internal affairs are simple and clear, and with their mother guiding them, it would not be out of the question. What's wrong."

Mrs. Mei still wanted to say something, but Lin Songren said again: "Lin Jinwen is favored by the emperor. Even my father has to look at his face. If you don't want to die, you can do it like this. Besides, Jinwen and Wenjuan are already very close. It's giving me a headache, there must be no trouble at Wenxiu's place." After saying this, Lin Songren left directly, leaving behind Mei Shi limp on the ground and wept bitterly.

Naturally, Lin Wenxiu was aware of such ups and downs at home, but she didn't know exactly what happened, she just vaguely felt that it had something to do with her.She has a dull personality, and she doesn't like to go to Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Mei's to say hello on weekdays. She just stays in her room and embroiders.

Now she is embroidering a purse, which is for Lin Wenjuan. For some reason, Lin Wenxiu is a little restless, and the sharp needle point has pierced her fingertips.

Lin Wenxiu frowned, put her fingertips in her mouth, and suddenly panicked.

@@@

Everyone in the Lin family in this room had grudges, but in the other room Lin Jinwen held Gu Qinglin's hand all the way, and only let go when he returned to the courtyard.

Yuzhu and Sanqi glanced at each other, one said he was going to see if there was anything missing in the kitchen, the other said he was going to mend clothes, they both slipped away.

After they left, Lin Jinwen and Gu Qinglin looked at each other, and they were staggered apart, both feeling a little inexplicably embarrassed.Lin Jinwen held Gu Qinglin's hand and left. He just wanted to give everyone an attitude, but he didn't expect to lose this grip.

Gu Qinglin actually let him hold it all the way without resistance.

Gu Qinglin was a little absent-minded. When Lin Jinwen suddenly held his hand, he thought he would tremble with fear, and he would think of the unbearable pain, which was the emotion that would appear when he woke up in the middle of the night at Wen's house.

But it didn't, he even let Lin Jinwen hold his hand and walked all the way in a daze.

Lin Jinwen didn't want to let himself fall into this inexplicable atmosphere, so he found a topic and said, "Are you afraid?"

Gu Qinglin came back to his senses, followed his words and said, "Don't be afraid."

Lin Jinwen nodded and said, "That's good, you don't have to be afraid in the future."

Gu Qinglin nodded.

At this point in the day, the two of them chatted to death again.
