Chapter 4 Returning to Beijing
Lin Mengchu followed her back to the capital and saw her aunt's surprised eyes and teasing looks around her at the door of Lin's house.
Lin Mengchu returned to the room with a cold look, and then went to find Shi Xin. Lin Mengchu glanced at Shi Xin and asked Shi Xin to treat him to dinner.
"Yes, Miss." Shi Xin hurriedly went to call Qing He.
Sure enough, within a moment, behind Shi Xin, the maid named Qing He really followed.
Lin Boran originally didn't have much feelings for Qing He, but after his aunt reminded Lin Boran, he slowly remembered that he was related to Yun Qiandu.
Naturally, this kind of green lotus remained in Lin Boran's impression.
Lin Mengchu pointed at the fresh green lotus with his finger and smiled slightly.
Lin Boran was deadlocked. It should be said that he had just concluded that Qing He was dead.
"Are you Qing He?" Lin Boran asked again as if he was dead.
Qing He, who had just been awakened by Shi Xin, was still a little dazed. He shook his head and replied, "Yes, Mr. Xiang."
Lin Boran's face was earth-colored, and his heart was extremely uncomfortable.
He just heard the little maid yelling and concluded that Qing He was dead. Now Qing He was standing vividly in front of him, seeming to be sarcastic to Lin Boran for listening to other beliefs.
"Who is the maid who just said Qing He died!"
Lin Boran was not angry because he was scared by the maid. He was angry about whether Lin Mengchu was the evil star mentioned by the Taoist priest!
You see, it was precisely because of Qing He's death that Lin Mengchu decided on this.
The reason why Lin Boran looked at his aunt was because of Lin Boran's impression of her. The maid who said Qing He was dead seemed to be her aunt's personal maid.
What's more, Mengchu just said that he had given Qinghe to the Qiu family.
The aunt was horrified, what should she do? She had clearly arranged everything, but Qing He was pushed into the well and drowned. How could Qing He live again?
"It's like the pomegranate is talking. I think pomegranates are not good for eyesight." My aunt didn't want to admit it, but she had to admit it.
Lin Mengchu glanced at his aunt and was very dissatisfied.
All of a sudden, my aunt vaguely realized that maybe it was not herself who was scheming against Lin Mengchu, but Lin Mengchu who was scheming against herself!
The aunt felt bad and thought it would be better to live well without confirming, so she quickly asked the master to send Lin Mengchu to the nunnery.
The aunt quickly winked at the aunt outside the door, and the aunt ran to Aunt Zhao's courtyard.
Lin Boran was upset by the Taoist priest's comments and wanted to find out the evil star in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Pomegranate was at this time blocking Lin Boran's path.
"Sir?" My aunt's face turned pale and she continued to nod, but she could only accept it.
As long as adults still care about Lin Ziqi, they will inevitably not keep Lin Mengchu, their legitimate daughter!
Lin Boran looked at Lin Mengchu hesitantly. Although Lin Ziqi was in danger, it was a pity that Qing He was not dead.
Auntie was already anxious and worried that the matter would be delayed too far, but Lin Mengchu, a little bitch, would drag her back!
Looking at his aunt's cruel look, Lin Mengchu smiled, what a plan to kill two birds with one stone.
In other words, he would send his annoying daughter to the frontier, and even kill his son's only enemy, Lin Ziqi.
Holding Qin and walking outside the door, she winked at Lin Mengchu.
When the aunt saw Lin Boran coming to Lin Mengchu's side and talking about Lin Mengchu before he opened his mouth, she said.
No matter what, we must send Lin Mengchu away first.
When Lin Mengchu was no longer under the Prime Minister's nose, it would be much easier to find an excuse that would make Lin Mengchu unable to turn back.
Auntie just wants to kill Lin Ziqi and take Lin Mengchu away.
The wife of the county magistrate of Lin did not believe in medicine and turned to the master. She called in a Taoist priest and said that there was a monster in her family that she worshiped. She was so troubled that her child disappeared.
Because five years had passed since the incident, and because Lin Zhixian was still a minor official, the incident was gradually forgotten by people.
Now that Lin Mengchu is so worthy of mention, it is tantamount to an enlightenment for Lin Boran!
Lin Boran's attitude changed, and her aunt saw it in her eyes, and she could only sigh secretly.
While her aunt was thinking hard about how to strengthen Lin Boran's mind, Lin Lixi came with her aunt and ran into the house with tears on her face.
Seeing Lin Lixi like this, my aunt was overjoyed. Did Lin Ziqi really die of illness?
He only has 5 daughters and 2 sons. So are the sons more valuable?
"Dad, second brother, second brother." Xu cried for too long, and Lin Lixi's words were lumpy.
Because of this, the aunt's heart also fluctuated with Lin Lixi's words, and she bitterly told Lin Lixi that Lin Ziqi had been killed by Lin Mengchu!
Lin Lixi took a deep breath and finally finished her words.
After saying this, Lin Lixi's eyes were once again stained with tears.
"Mengchu?" Lin Boran looked at Lin Mengchu doubtfully. Ziqi's condition was under control. Did this also happen to Mengchu?
Lin Mengchu looked at Lin Lixi, "How is your second brother doing now?"
"That's good."
"Which mother-in-law said that!" Lin Lixi was looking forward to Lin Ziqi's excellence, but there was actually a mother-in-law chewing her tongue and saying that Lin Ziqi could not survive. As you can imagine, Lin Lixi had to be even more angry.
At this moment, Lin Lixi was so worried that the last thing she heard was the word "death".
Although Lin Lixi was not very cold at first, when facing Lin Boran, Lin Lixi suddenly showed her sharpness.
The girl who reported the news had not yet left. When she heard Lin Lixi's words, there was a "pop" sound. She was so shocked that her legs went weak and she knelt down.
The aunt immediately kicked the old woman and scolded her.
The old aunt felt guilty and she didn't expect to succeed. At this time, the man in Aunt Zhao's aunt's room also came to the master's house in interest, eager to expose her lies.
The old woman was so frightened that she cracked Lin Boran's head with a "bang bang bang" sound.
"It turns out it's you, the mother-in-law who wants to die!"
Lin Lixi didn't know anything. The appearance of her brother was due to the fact that her aunt and Lin Zixuan were both smart and weak. Therefore, she was with Aunt Zhao and was not convinced by the person sent by her aunt.
Who knows, these people are not allowed to touch the second brother, but they still let the aunt's men work in vain to get into such a loophole.
Hearing Lin Mengchu's voice, the aunt rushed over and bit Lin Mengchu's mouth bitterly.
In the previous incident involving Red Tongue, the Prime Minister had expressed his desire to regain his rights.
I wanted to take advantage of this incident and regard Red Tongue as a coincidence. The Prime Minister was the one who blocked Lin Mengchu's evil.
Unexpectedly, Qing He did not die, and Lin Ziqi's condition improved. Lin Mengchu didn't care about it, but Lin Mengchu never wanted to be "the master of the family" again.
Lin Boran was much calmer at the moment, Lin Ziqi's condition was stabilized, and there were no bad thoughts of death in the prime minister's house.
Lin Boran was much more indifferent towards the evil star.
He believed what the Taoist priest said, and it was really all based on what those two slaves said.
Receiving Lin Boran's cold eyes, the aunt gritted her teeth, thinking that she was the one carrying it abominably at this moment and admitted her mistake.
After receiving the information, Lin Furong ran over with a smile on her face.
She and Lin Yuxin are usually concubines, but she can dominate these concubines precisely because the prime minister's house is controlled by the aunts.
If the right to take charge of affairs was taken back and given to other aunts, where would the dignity of myself and my aunt be lost?
Seeing Lin Furong appear, Auntie became even more anxious.
Isn't Fu'er's arrival at this time just adding to the chaos?
Lin Mengchu smiled. He just invited a few maids to pass by the courtyard of Lin Furong's house. Lin Furong "quietly" learned about her aunt's situation at this time, and Lin Furong really rushed over.
Lin Mengchu looked at Lin Furong in surprise.
Lin Furong was so angry that everyone wanted to force her aunt to death!
"Mengchu said that you are not a good disciplinarian, and he was really right!"
As the head of the family, Lin Boran's prestige was questioned, so he naturally showed the courage that a head of a family should have.
"Forget about those slaves, you didn't even manage your daughter Fu'er well. If Qiandu hadn't been gone, otherwise, if you had raised Fu'er by Qiandu's side, how could she be like now, no big or small?
!”
"master!"
The aunt immediately bit her lip until it split.
The word "Yun Qiandu" she has heard most in her life is the word "Yun Qiandu", but what she disagrees with the most is that Yun Qiandu is better than her own Yun Qiuqin!
Lin Lixi looked at Lin Mengchu and then at Lin Boran.
"Dad, my second brother has no luck with the women my aunt sent. I hope my father will take them back."
What is before us is obvious. The mission of these aunts is not to take care of the second brother, but to be their eyesight and the weapon to deal with the second brother!
"Everything is sold!"
After hearing what Lin Lixi said, Lin Boran was also very annoyed by these nagging women, so he simply sold them one by two.
If Lin Ziqi hadn't been completely out of danger at this moment, the woman who came to report the news would have been beaten to death by Lin Boran's order!
My aunt was so frightened that she broke into a cold sweat. The people who worked for her were sold out one by one. Didn't they just want her to be a toothless tiger?
The aunt looked at Lin Mengchu and saw a slight smile on Lin Mengchu's lips, and she immediately understood.
She thought that Lin Mengchu was still thinking about her status as her aunt, but in fact Lin Mengchu had already regarded her as his enemy.
Although my aunt didn't understand why Lin Mengchu had undergone so many changes, she also knew that she should not expect Lin Mengchu to be willing to breathe a sigh of relief and support himself in the future.
Lin Furong begged.
Lin Mengchu glanced at Lin Furong indifferently, and the words in his mouth were poisonous.
Lin Furong suddenly felt speechless in her heart. She expected her aunt to ascend to the position of the Prime Minister's wife. She was despising her status.
The status of an aunt is that of a concubine.
What is the status of a concubine? To put it nicely, a half-master is actually just a slave!
You are destined to be a master, and you also have to discuss merits with the master. Are you tired of living?
"Mengchu is right!"
Lin Boran nodded.
Together with himself, he entrusts the affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion to his aunt or poor aunt.
Since my aunt no longer wanted to do it, naturally someone else did it.
Lin Boran would never tolerate a woman running towards him and talking wildly about his achievements.
Lin Boran not only punished his aunt but also refused to let Lin Furong go.
Lin Boran hoped that Lin Furong knew that the boss of the house was him, and no one could go further away.
Lin Mengchu suddenly clarified the meaning of this sentence again.
After hearing Lin Mengchu's words, my aunt, who had long since died, her eyelids fluttered and even her temples bulged.
Lin Boran no longer wanted to think of his stupidity just now. This evil was not an evil star, and it was now hard to explain.
If you really want to believe it, you must ask a reputable expert to take a look, so that you can get it just right.
After saying this, Lin Mengchu glanced at his aunt.
Lin Mengchu's words took a turn for the worse, and he actually held his aunt in his arms.
But her aunt, who was half-hearted, understood that even if Lin Mengchu said nice words for herself at this moment, her purpose would definitely be impure.
Lin Mengchu blessed Lin Boran, and Lin Boran nodded appropriately.
In the past few years that my aunt has been in charge of the prime minister's house, her food, clothing, housing, transportation, etc. are indeed worthy of praise.
Lin Boran nodded, but as expected he still avoided answering the evil star.
On the one hand, the unrest in his house would be a big problem if the evil star would also affect his career as a scholar.
The aunt felt that Lin Mengchu was glancing at the ground with a distant look, and suddenly her heart tightened, and she understood why Lin Mengchu hugged him like this just now.
For the first time, my aunt hated Lin Mengchu's irresponsible remarks. Instead of listening to Lin Mengchu's support, it would be better for Lin Mengchu to make a fuss now.
Aunt Zhao followed Lin Lixi to the Prime Minister's Mansion. It can be said that she lived a relatively peaceful life and rarely got involved in fights.
But what happened to Lin Ziqi today made Lin Lixi very angry.
No matter how hard your aunt and second sister fight, they won't be able to take care of each other, but don't treat your brother like a raft!
Lin Boran looked at his aunt coldly. As expected, with this kind of mind, not to mention Fu'er, even the Qiu family had nothing to do with Fu'er.
It was the first time that Lin Boran discovered that the legitimate concubines were so far apart.
