Lin Zhixiu was startled and looked at her with questions on her face. She looked left and right, as if asking others if they knew what was going on.
I saw that everyone was a little confused.
She seemed relieved, gently picked up the tea on the small table next to her and took a sip.
Seeing that she ignored her, the daughter-in-law even kowtowed, "Please, Miss Lin San, please let my slave's mother back. If you feel uncomfortable, punish me. Your slave's mother and great-grandson will be born after all these years."
I have followed you thousands of miles away, but there is still hard work without credit! Please show your kindness..." After saying this, he started to cry.
Such a trick! Lin Zhixiu put down the tea cup and gently pulled Lin Zhirong's sleeve next to him. "Second sister, this person is talking to you! Why is sister ignoring her?"
Lin Zhirong pulled up his sleeves and said arrogantly, "Talk to me? Her name is Miss Lin San. How could she be talking to me?"
Lin Zhixiu turned her head again and looked at the woman kneeling below in confusion. Her head was banging on the ground. The girl who came next to her quickly picked her up and said, "Auntie, don't hurt yourself like this! Tell me nicely.
Miss Lin San will promise you. Besides, there are our old aunts..."
Lin Zhixiu ignored them and said to Huang Wen next to her, "Miss Huang, where is your elder sister-in-law? Someone invite her over."
Huang Wen's sister-in-law is the Huang family's eldest granddaughter-in-law, and she is the same generation as Lin Zhixiu. Just now, she greeted them at the second gate.
Huang Wen listened but said nothing, pretending not to hear.
Lin Zhirong whispered, "No matter what, let her get up first?! There are so many people watching..." Even though he whispered, others could still hear him.
Lin Zhixiu also whispered, "Sister, tell her!"
Lin Zhirong felt annoyed and said, "She's not looking for me, what should I say?"
Zhang Pei next to him saw this and couldn't help but have a bad impression of Lin Rong! Sisters from the same family, not to mention helping, it seems that they want to add fuel to the flames. I don't want such a sister-in-law!
To be honest, Lin Zhirong is simply not as good as Lin Zhifang in this aspect.
Du Yan next to her said, "Although she is a slave, she is still a human being. It seems that she still has some dignity in the Huang family. Kneeling in front of her, crying and kowtow... She didn't even blink. Look at her look, it's really
I didn’t expect it to be this way..."
"Well, this is really a hard-hearted person."
"that is!"
Several girls started talking next to each other.
Lin Zhirong's face turned red and he peeked at Lin Zhixiu... He saw her shaking her small fan and looking very calm. Thinking of how much she had done at home before, how dare this girl behave like this outside?!
Bai Lan said, "Oh, she is a little girl who has just arrived in the capital. She has gone through so many things! It is inevitable that she does not know how to deal with it for a while! Stop talking! That woman, get up first and speak slowly!"
"She seemed to be giving Lin Zhixiu a step up.
After hearing this, Lin Zhixiu had no reaction. Lin Zhirong hated her even more. This damn girl really didn't grow up in the capital and didn't care about anything.
Huang Wen's face was uncertain. She had never expected Lin Zhixiu to be like this. She didn't ask anyone to call her sister-in-law just now. It would be a bit embarrassing for her to call her sister-in-law now. But she was a girl, so it was not easy for her to do this.
Fortunately, Grandma Huang quickly brought the people over. Seeing the servant girl who was still crying bitterly, she seemed a little surprised, "What's going on? Liu Xing's family, what are you making a fuss about in front of so many guests? Come down quickly."
"Flick the veil.
Liu Xing's family was still kneeling on the ground and said to Grandma Huang, "Grandma Mingjian, the slave's mother, followed Miss Lin San and her family to the south to serve. Miss Lin San came back, but the slave's mother was nowhere to be seen. After all, there are three
The New Year’s letter has come. This servant is feeling panic... Wuwu..."
Grandma Huang thought Lin Zhixiu would stop her or explain something.
Unexpectedly, Lin Zhixiu picked up the tea bowl to drink again, not caring about the matter in front of him.
Liu Xing's family saw Lin Zhixiu saying, "Grandma, this servant is begging the third lady to let my mother go. My mother is already sixty and has worked hard all her life... When she gets old, she will not enjoy the blessings of us children.
But I don’t know whether I will live or die... Third Miss, please spare your life..."
Grandma Huang was embarrassed and said, "How do you say this? Your mother..."
"Grandma, this servant's family is worried, and they are restless day and night. But there is no place to ask. I just saw Miss Lin San today. Grandma, please help me ask Miss Lin..."
Grandma Huang was a little embarrassed. She glanced at Lin Zhixiu and said, "What day is it today? Don't bother with it. The third girl will always give an explanation for this matter in the future."
"Please, grandma, please ask me for help."
Du Yan said, "If Miss Lin San knows, please tell her! It makes everyone no longer in the mood to drink tea!"
Lin Zhirong whispered, "How about you tell me something?" This time her voice was really low.
Grandma Huang looked at Lin Zhixiu.
Lin Zhixiu looked at everyone with a smile as if nothing was wrong.
Grandma Huang reluctantly asked, "Miss Lin San, I'm really offended. This Mother Liu is still serving in front of our old lady! In the Huang family, there is still some respect. Do you think you should go with her...
…”
Lin Zhixiu smiled and said, "Grandma Huang, are you saying that I have to give your slave an explanation?"
Grandma Huang looked a little embarrassed, "No, Miss Lin San, that's not what I meant. We are in-laws and have many things involving each other, so my sister-in-law only asked."
"You asked me in front of so many relatives and friends, wouldn't it be wrong if I didn't tell you? Well... then let's talk about it, and let me make it clear, so that I can understand..."
When Grandma Huang heard this, she wondered why this girl spoke so unpleasantly.
Lin Zhixiu said, "Grandma Huang, who do you want from me?" She ignored the Liu Xing family members who were kneeling on the ground.
Grandma Huang said, "Oh, this mother Liu's mother seems to have been with you when your father and mother went to the south."
Lin Zhixiu pointed to Liu Xing's family and asked, "You mean, her mother serves my parents?" She deliberately slurred her words like this, "But my father's surname is Lin and my mother's surname is An! How can I use a slave from the Huang family? Huang
Grandma, are you making a mistake?! My mother comes from the An family in southern Anhui and has so many servants that she can’t count them. How could she ask the Huang family for an old woman?”
Grandma Huang secretly hated her for acting like this, "Well... I was with your father's aunt at the time."
Lin Zhixiu blinked, "Ah?! My father's aunt... Oops! I remembered it! My aunt Chun, whose surname is Huang, is the legitimate daughter of your Huang family."
Lin Zhixiu suddenly understood, clapped her hands, and started shouting loudly.
"What?"
"how so?"
The girls sitting here looked at me and I looked at you and screamed in surprise.
Grandma Huang blushed furiously and hated her even more, this damn girl! She couldn't help complaining to her mother-in-law, why are you making such a fuss?!
Lin Zhixiu looked at Grandma Huang with great interest, "Grandma Huang, how do you call my Aunt Chun? Are you calling me aunt?" She was obsessed with this matter.
Grandma Huang calmed down, the smile on her face faded, and she said softly, "Third Miss, I haven't seen her since I came in. I really can't figure it out at this moment. Where is that Mother Huang now?" Don't follow me.
It's all rambling.
Lin Zhixiu had a clear smile on her face, "I understand! It's Zhixiu who's being abrupt. Who would be willing to do something like this..." What a glorious thing, Lin Zhixiu looked at Grandma Huang, feeling a little embarrassed for her.
Look.
Mrs. Huang feels that this girl is really hateful!
Since she had been "abrupt" before, Lin Zhixiu has calmed down now. "After my parents passed away, my brother and I were the only two people at home to observe mourning. We didn't need so many servants, so we had to deal with a batch of different people."
How to deal with it. Some loyal servants were given money to sell themselves and settle down to buy a house. But those who were sneaky and sneaky were sold!"
When the Liu Xing family members who were kneeling on the ground heard this, they immediately shouted, "My mother has not come back! Moreover, my mother's deed of sale belongs to the Huang family. You have no right to deal with her, so you should return her."
Lin Zhixiu was stunned, "Oh?! You mean, your mother's bond of sale belongs to the Huang family?!" She looked like she didn't believe it.
Grandma Huang was also stunned. She didn't know much about this.
Lin Zhixiu smiled contemptuously, "It's a joke, whoever serves someone personally, the deed of sale belongs to someone else... Even if he takes Aunt Huang with him to serve her when she goes out as a concubine, the deed of sale should still be with Huang."
Leave it in my aunt’s hands! Ordinarily...the Huang family is not an ordinary family?! I still don’t understand this rule...Oh, Grandma Huang, is there any special reason?"
She also took the initiative to help Grandma Huang explain...
Grandma Huang was even more embarrassed, "I don't know what happened to this incident in the first place. Or it's possible that the elders forgot about it for a while. Looking back on that incident, where did Mother Huang go? It's really clueless.
Has the deed of renunciation been sold?"
The Liu Xing family even burst into tears.
Lin Zhixiu's little face tightened: "Grandma Huang, since you don't know anything, what are you using to question me? What about Mother Huang, did you give it to me? No, right?! Why is there no one now?"
