Chapter Three: A Fool's Calculation
Mrs. Yang frowned and looked at Lin Min, pulled her to sit down, then glanced at Su Chou on the table, and said angrily: "What are you doing? I don't think Chen Qilang is good! He's just a judge.
…”
When Lin Min heard this, she felt as if someone had poured ice water on her, and her heart suddenly went cold. He didn't like her! Why didn't he like her? Why didn't he like her?
Lin Min was filled with sour resentment. When her eyes touched the silk cloth on the table, she became even more resentful. She wanted to tear the two pieces of cloth into tatters. Thinking in her heart, she ran forward in two steps, threw herself at the silk cloth, and tried to
Tear.
Mrs. Yang's second wife had quick eyesight and quick hands. She grabbed Lin Min's hand and pulled the silk cloth over. She cursed: "Are you crazy? You damn girl! This is the best silk cloth!"
Lin Min stared at Mrs. Yang with red eyes. After a moment of silence, she suddenly jumped up and rushed towards Mrs. Yang as if she was crazy. He grabbed the silk and tore, pulled and bit it. Mrs. Yang
Seeing this, he screamed in distress and rushed forward with his hands and feet. The mother and daughter started tearing apart as if they were fighting.
Several people in the room watched in stunned silence as the two rolled around on the ground twice, speechless for a moment.
In the Yingfeng Pavilion on the second floor, Lin Wan had no intention of paying attention to the affairs of Cuiming Pavilion after Mrs. Su San took a group of people upstairs. She chatted with Lin Yao for a few words and then played chess quietly. The private room in Yingxian Pavilion was often crowded.
When a literati came to visit, the private room was equipped with pens, inks, paper, inkstones and chess pieces, which was quite cheap.
The two of them had just settled down less than ten years ago, when they saw a girl from outside come in to answer the question, but a woman came up and said that she was sent by the fourth girl of the Yang family. The fourth girl knew that the girl of the Lin family was here, so she came to invite her.
Lin Yao just took the chess piece in her hand, and when she heard this, she shrank back and looked at Lin Wan with questioning eyes.
Lin Wan frowned and motioned to the little girl to let her mother-in-law come in to answer. As soon as they met, Lin Wan relaxed her brows, her face was gentle and smiling, but there was a sneer in her heart.
Naturally, this Yang family is not the natal family of Mrs. Yang’s second wife, the Yang family, but the palace of Yang Guogong. Lin Wan and Yang Ling, the fourth girl of the Yang family, have always been on good terms, and even the maids and women around them are familiar with each other. This nanny who just came in,
Lin Wan didn't have the slightest impression! If she said they were people from other courtyards in Yang Guogong's house, Lin Wan didn't believe it. The way this woman looks at people is wrong! Her expression is wrong too!
"Where are you four girls?" Lin Wan smiled at the woman, her tone gentle and cheerful.
"The fourth lady is in the Bizhu Pavilion in Mingyue Tower. It's across an alley. I heard that the two girls were here, so I sent an old slave to invite them." The old woman lowered her head and responded calmly.
Lin Wan secretly clenched her fists and sneered even more in her heart. Two girls? There are more than two girls from the Lin family! There is also a housekeeper's wife! As for Mingyue Tower, others don't know that she is not that forgetful! That's Wen Zhong
The property of the Feng family in the Hou Mansion!
Aunt Cao's eyes were fixed on the woman, and her brows gradually wrinkled.
"Is she alone, or does she have company?" Lin Wan spoke in an unhurried tone, with the same smile as before, and her eyes were as bright as pearls.
The woman quickly raised her head and glanced at Lin Wan. The moment she caught Lin Wan's gaze, she quickly moved her gaze and replied: "Originally, we were the only four girls. Later, we met the second girl of the Feng family, so we went there."
Come to Mingyue Tower."
Lin Wan smiled, looked back at the chessboard, and said with a smile: "It's an unfortunate day. I just put the chess here, and she came to call for help! Since we already have company, there are two of us.
Go back to you four girls and tell her that we can't go there today, and I'll write a post to invite her tomorrow when I'm free."
The woman seemed stunned for a moment, then begged with a grimace: "The fourth girl told me to invite the sixth girl over. You also know the temper of our fourth girl..."
"Mommy, what are you doing? If I don't go, is it possible that you girls will make you angry? She is also angry with me! You let her come to me on her own! It has nothing to do with you!" Halfway through the words, his tone also showed some emotion.
Very dissatisfied.
Before the mother-in-law could react, Lin Wan smiled at Aunt Cao and said, "Since this Aunt Cao is worried, you should go with her, lest that girl is really upset, she is mine."
It’s a sin!”
Aunt Cao understood. She looked coldly at the old lady who was still trying to speak, and hurriedly stopped her and said, "Please ask this grandma to lead the way!" After saying that, she grabbed the old lady's arm and dragged her out with a mop.
Lin Yao was dumbfounded as she watched Aunt Cao drag out the woman who was similar in stature to her in the blink of an eye like a burly man. She didn't come back to her senses for a long time.
"Fifth sister, it's your turn!" Lin Wan turned around and sat down facing the chessboard again. Seeing that Lin Yao was still stunned, she stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Lin Yao's eyes.
Lin Yao suddenly woke up, forced a smile as if she was still frightened, then picked up the chess piece and started thinking again.
Not long after, Qiu Zi interrupted the two of them: "The lady has left."
Lin Yao stood up immediately after hearing this, then realized something was wrong, sat down again, and smiled apologetically at Lin Wan: "Sixth sister, shouldn't we go back?"
"It's time to go back." Lin Wan nodded and started to clean up the chessboard. Seeing this, Lin Yao hurriedly threw away the handkerchief and put it away. Lin Wan sighed silently.
In Cuimingxuan, Mrs. Yang's hairpins were all scattered, and she almost lost her clothes. Lin Min's pink dress was all wrinkled, and her hair was as messy as a chicken coop. The two Su Chou had been rubbed to pieces.
Yang looked at the silk on the ground with blank eyes. After a long time, he grabbed Lin Min angrily and cursed angrily: "You are trying to make me mad! Make me mad..." Lin Min, why?
Regardless of Yang, he struggled to pull away Yang's hand, bared his teeth and yelled back: "It's you who wants me to die!" As he said this, he used both hands to grab Yang's hair. Fortunately, in Cuimingxuan,
The girl and mother-in-law finally realized what was going on, and were busy pulling people in and trying to stop fights. When Cuiyu saw something was wrong, she ran into Yingfengxuan with her skirt in hand, and stammered about the situation to Lin Wan and the other two.
Lin Yao was stunned and turned to surprise and shame, while Lin Wan curled up her lips and smiled. She put away the chess pieces and the chessboard unhurriedly, stayed for a while, and then left Yingfeng Pavilion.
In Cuimingxuan, Yang and Lin Min finally stopped fighting, but they stared at each other and were still angry. When Lin Wan and others entered, they saw the mother and daughter, one with disheveled hair and the other with disheveled clothes. The atmosphere in the room was tense.
Yang's eyes widened when she saw Lin Wan, and she couldn't hide the surprise on her face. Lin Min gritted his teeth and glared at Lin Wan and the others, with shame and anger on his face, and in his heart
The fire was burning, and the anger that had just been extinguished by five points became ten points again!
Lin Wan raised her lips and smiled at Second Mrs. Yang, then her face darkened. "What are you doing standing there in a daze? Why don't you get the second wife and fourth girl in order quickly? Cuiyu goes and gets the cloak!"
Everyone was busy for a while, but finally no more forks were made.
After returning to the house, Lin Wan first went to Mrs. Liu's place to say hello and briefly explained the situation in Yingxian Tower.
Mrs. Liu was extremely shocked, frowned and sighed. "I thought it would be difficult for her, but I didn't expect it... The fourth sister is also ignorant. How can she, a girl, do anything! She is still with her mother..."
Before Mrs. Liu could finish her sigh, Aunt Cao returned to the house immediately. Lin Wan did not shy away from Mrs. Liu and signaled to Aunt Cao to speak directly.
"The woman wanted to deny it at first, but then she confessed that her surname was Lian, and she came to see her after being asked by Miss Feng Er. Then she ran away, and I asked Yue Liu to follow her, and she would probably be back at noon. Later.
, I went to Mingyue Tower again, and found no one else except the shopkeeper and a few younger brothers. There was only the Feng family’s carriage at the door. Later, when I asked about it, it was said that Mingyue Tower was hired by their second wife today.
Got off! I thought something was wrong, so I went to the Yang Mansion to ask again. The fourth girl was indeed in the same place as the second girl Feng, but she was dragged there, not in Mingyue Tower. Later, the fourth girl Yang was not happy, so she asked
I made an excuse and went back, just before we entered Yingxian Tower."
Mrs. Liu stared at Grandma Cao and Lin Wan in surprise: "Why are you talking to Sister Ling and that girl from the Feng family again?"
Lin Wan curled her lips and sneered: "We'll find out when Yue Liu comes back!" The Feng family really made a good plan! Although the Wenzhong Marquis Mansion has a title, it is gone for three generations. The two generations of the Feng family
With all the cowards out there, the Hou Mansion has long been in disgrace. If it weren’t for the old Marquis who was still in charge, I’m afraid the Feng family would have been broken up long ago! The eldest aunt Feng came from the Wenzhong Hou Mansion. Previously, the second wife of the Feng family came to
Mrs. Liu revealed her intentions and wanted to marry Feng Si, the romantic playboy of the Feng family. She really thought that Lin Wan was the one who was taken advantage of! Of course Ms. Liu didn't respond. She was gentle, but she was not brainless. Could she let her daughter jump into the pit of fire? Feng Er
The wife also knew her son's temperament, so she didn't mention it again.
Now it seems that the second wife of the Feng family has not taken the right path, so she wants to find another "different path"! Looking at Yang's appearance, maybe there is something wrong with her here!
With this little brain, she still wants to scheme against people! She, Lin Wan, is not a boudoir who never leaves the house! I really think she is ignorant and does not ask questions!
