Lin immediately had a pleasant chat with Li Feng, and left after they had had enough wine and food.
When saying hello the next morning, Mrs. Lin looked at Lin Zhixiu. She was such a good-looking girl, why did she dislike her?
Suddenly remembering something, I felt happy and said to Lin Zhixiu, "Oh, I almost forgot. Qian'er was at Qi's house and heard about something. That aunt of yours..."
Lin Zhixiu was there with her lips pursed and pretending to smile, waiting to finish her business and go back to the house. After hearing what Mrs. Lin said, she became vigilant. She looked at the old lady calmly, "If you dare to criticize my aunt, don't blame me for making you angry again."
!
Mrs. Lin pretended to say, "Oh, it's the Zhao family that Miss Ren was engaged to before, Zhao Chang! Didn't he regret his marriage to her and marry his stepmother's niece? Oops, I didn't know that I dare to fall in love with this Zhao Chang.
The stepmother and the niece... were Zhao Chang's wife, who died at the hands of gangsters at the Autumn Hunting Party!"
Lin Zhixiu was really surprised. "What? Dead? Why haven't you heard...how did you die?"
The old lady said, "Dead! Two people, including several servants, are dead. In the small courtyard where they live! Ouch...it's really scary!"
Lin Zhixiu thought for a while, "It seems that someone said that some people were killed or injured in their families!"
What did Mrs. Lin want to say? She sighed and said, "As for the Zhao family, it turns out that Mr. Zhao is very decent and capable! This Mr. Zhao is quite acceptable in official matters, but I heard that in private, he is very confused. Mrs. Zhao in the head
When he was still alive, life in the family was still prosperous, and Zhao Chang's seventeen-year-old Juren was also very promising. Unfortunately, Mrs. Zhao was gone, and the Zhao family... Zhao Chang married such a person! Alas, it's a pity that fate plays tricks on people! With
A good marriage for a girl from the Ren family is the most..."
Lin Zhixiu interrupted her with a smile, "Grandma, the Ren and Zhao families have no relationship for a long time! The girl from the Ren family is my uncle's unmarried wife! In a few days, she will be Xiu'er's aunt. It's hard to compare them to each other.
Oh! Grandma, this is against the rules. If others hear it... I will laugh at you."
After saying this, Mrs. Lin's face turned red.
Huang said coldly, "The way you talk to grandma like this will make other people laugh if they hear you!"
Lin Zhixiu also said coldly, "Third Madam, the elders may have said something that was not thoughtful, but the younger generation noticed it and reminded her in time, which is the true filial piety!" Now, she doesn't even call her Third Aunt.
The two of them lost even the last bit of face.
Lin Zhixiu then said to the dark-faced old lady, "Grandma, a girl from the Ren family, is from a famous family and has noble moral character! Xiu'er has benefited a lot from her contact with her. I just feel that her thoughts and deeds are really worthy of her.
She is a role model for women! After her uncle got engaged to her, everything from work, conversation, to clothes and grooming has obviously improved a lot! It seems that marrying a virtuous wife is correct! Marrying the right wife
, men will also improve a lot. Even the starting points of future generations will be different, and they will have more opportunities to make a difference!"
Mrs. Yuan was here today. After hearing what Lin Zhixiu said, she looked at Mrs. Huang from the corner of her eyes and smiled.
Huang was so angry that her face turned red. Lin Zhixiu was clearly talking about her, but she didn't mention her by name. If she answered the question, wouldn't it be more obvious that it was her? She had to hide this hatred in her heart and want to settle the matter with her.
Another addition has been added to my account!
Lin Zhixiu snorted contemptuously and stopped talking.
Old Mrs. Lin said, "I just mentioned it but didn't say anything? That's all you did!"
Lin Zhixiu smiled and said, "Is your granddaughter thinking too much? I'm sorry, grandma! Hey, grandma, that day, I only saw cousin Xin, not my aunt?!"
Old Mrs. Lin really had no choice but to curse, "Who do you have in your eyes?!"
Lin Zhixiu stopped talking again, and Mrs. Lin nagged her for a long time. She became more and more angry and sent them all away.
Lin Zhixiu returned to the courtyard, but she felt a little awkward. In her previous life, Qiu Lie, there was no assassination of the emperor. Miss Ren didn't even recognize her, let alone the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Zhao family. She really had no impression at all.
After her uncle got engaged to the Ren family, she also inquired about it. The news was that Zhao Chang and his current wife were living well and had a daughter. However, neither his stepmother nor his wife rarely went out.
They rarely entertain guests at home. They are not from a high background and have low means. They are looked down upon by others and it is normal for them not to interact with each other.
But now that I think about it, is it possible that Zhao Chang did it on purpose?
This is none of my business! But Miss Ren, she can do whatever she wants! That Zhao Chang, will he refuse to let go?
With Ren's family status and Miss Ren's character, she would definitely not be able to do anything that would make people laugh or be ashamed of.
But... I can't stop my worthless uncle from thinking about it!
Lin Zhixiu said to Dongyun, "I guess my uncle doesn't know about this. Please ask someone to tell him..."
Just as Dongyun was about to leave, Lin Zhixiu stopped her, "Let's forget it for now. My uncle already feels guilty. If I tell him, I'm afraid he will have to think about it more!"
Nan Yan said, "Girl, I heard that several families were affected by the impact, some were killed or injured. So I didn't care about it!"
Lin Zhixiu said, "Huh... maybe this matter is not that coincidental!"
Nan Yan was stunned, "You mean?!"
Lin Zhixiu said, "Back then, Zhao Chang was just young and innocent, not stupid! After suffering such a boring loss, maybe he would look for an opportunity..."
Dongyun said, "But how did he know that there were thieves attacking Qiu Lie!?"
Lin Zhixiu said, "That's true... My uncle is getting married right in front of him. I hope nothing will happen. The old lady's opinion... I don't know, others have it too! Miss Ren is fine, but what about the rest of the Ren family?! Don't arrive.
Sometimes, it makes us feel sick."
Nan Yan said, "We are getting married in a few days, what else can we do?"
Lin Zhixiu sighed, "Things will definitely not change. But my uncle takes this matter too seriously and will worry about gains and losses... It would be pointless to let Miss Ren see it. After all,
Who doesn’t want her husband to be a man who is upright and upright?”
She thought for a while and said to Xiyu, "You go to Mrs. Wu's place and ask her to go back to her parents' house. Then I can go out with her and visit Ren's house!"
Xiyu came back after a trip and said, "Girl, the fifth wife said that a lady will invite her to be a guest tomorrow afternoon, and she can take you out!"
Lin Zhixiu blinked, "Hey, the fifth aunt is going out for a visit!? Hey, I don't know what she has been up to these days. Something is wrong lately!" Her mind was spinning and she didn't think much about it.
I just asked someone to tell the Ren family and uncle.
The next day, Fang Qunqun took Lin Zhixiu out and walked for a while. There was a car parked on the side of the road. It belonged to Anjia. Fang Qunqun said, "Just wait at Ren's house for me to pick you up. Don't go back by yourself!"
Lin Zhixiu said, "I know!" She got off the Lin family's carriage and got on the An family's carriage.
The An family's coachman and a woman were waiting. The woman smiled and said, "The master has put a few fruit baskets in the car, which are full of new nuts, for you to take to the Ren family!"
Lin Zhixiu almost laughed out loud, what an uncle of mine!
When they arrived at Ren's house, Ren Baihui's girl was already waiting at the second door. When she received Lin Zhixiu, she said, "Sorry, Miss Lin, my girl was waiting for you specially. Unexpectedly, several friends came and came without saying hello."
You just came to the door! It’s hard not to welcome me, so don’t mind!”
Lin Zhixiu said, "Ah?! What a coincidence?! These people come to the door without saying hello?"
The girl curled her lips, "It's fair to say! My girls have a good temper! If you ask me, they shouldn't be allowed in!"
Lin Zhixiu chuckled, "Then let me go and pay a visit to Madam first?!"
The girl looked at the big baskets in Dongyun and her mother-in-law's hands, helped to pick up two of them, and said with a smile, "Hey, I'll take the girl with me!"
