It turned out that Tang Yuxiang was worried that Lin Jingzhi's health was not good, and she didn't have the heart to play around with him, so she simply went out to find Aunt Rou and asked her to take care of her. This Aunt Rou had a gentle temperament and was a well-behaved person. However, although she had been here for more than a month
, but I had never seen Lin Jingzhi before, because Lin Jingzhi caught a cold on the day she came in, so he naturally did not enter the bridal chamber.
Later, Lin Jingzhi's health became worse and worse, and he had to take care of business, so he had no time to meet with her.
When Lin Jingzhi was selecting concubines among a group of women, he glanced at her from a distance. At that time, Lin Jingzhi was hiding behind a rockery and saw that she was good-looking, well-behaved, and a docile and lovely person.
Then she was chosen among twenty or thirty girls. However, since he only glanced at Aunt Rou from a distance at that time, it was normal for Lin Jingzhi not to recognize her now.
Aunt Rou?
Does that mean that this girl is also his woman?
Thinking of this, he looked the woman in front of him up and down again, while Aunt Rou was extremely nervous and felt uncomfortable with his direct gaze. She had heard that Lin Jingzhi had been studying since he was a child.
She attaches great importance to etiquette and education, and has a rather old-fashioned temper, so she did not dare to dress up carefully before coming, for fear that Lin Jingzhi would not like it. At this time, she was dressed simply and elegantly, very dignified and decent. However, even so, she was now very worried about her family.
The husband will pick out the bad ones.
"Rou'er, please sit down too." Lin Jingzhi saw the nervousness on the face of the girl in front of him and said with a warm smile.
However, although he had good intentions, he shocked Aunt Rou. She knelt down on the ground with a plop and kowtowed: "I am from a lowly background and I dare not sit in the same room as the second master."
In fact, concubines can only be regarded as half slaves and half masters. Many nobles even have the habit of exchanging concubines, so they are not qualified to sit in front of their princes.
"Get up quickly, come here and let me take a look!" Lin Jingzhi heard Aunt Rou knocking so hard that there was a banging sound, which frightened him, and he quickly called her out, fearing that she would do it again.
Xia Ke, someone had taught Aunt Rou before she entered the house, telling her to obey her master's orders and not go beyond them in the slightest, so Aunt Rou stood up obediently and walked to Lin Jingzhi.
Seeing that there was a bruise on the girl's forehead, Lin Jingzhi felt sorry for him. He reached out his big hand and gently wiped away the dust on the girl's forehead, while scolding: "Look, what are you doing with so much strength?
It’s green.”
Aunt Rou stood meekly in front of Lin Jingzhi and let him wipe it carefully. Her little face was red with embarrassment, which was really cute. After a while, she secretly raised her head and glanced at Lin Jingzhi, and saw that he just looked distressed.
, was not angry, so he let go of his jealousy and muttered to himself, "If I had known that my husband had a gentle temper and could care about people, I wouldn't have been so vigorous."
It turned out that she had just heard Lin Jingzhi ask her to sit down, thinking he was testing whether she understood the rules, so she was frightened and kowtowed a little harder.
At this moment, the door of the house was suddenly opened. It turned out that Tang Yuxiang was worried about Lin Jingzhi's body, and was afraid that something would happen to him again, so she came back again. A few days ago, Mrs. Lin personally ordered
She took care of Lin Jingzhi. If something went wrong, she would have to walk away without food.
But as soon as she entered the room, she saw Lin Jingzhi wiping Aunt Rou's forehead. She blushed at first, then immediately turned around and ran out. She mistakenly thought that the two were in love, and while running
, she spat: "What a pervert, I've only been awake for two days and I can't stand the loneliness anymore."
At the same time, she became more determined to leave the Lin Mansion.
Aunt Rou didn't expect that Tang Yuxiang suddenly ran in without asking anyone to send a message. Before she could salute, she saw him running out again. Although she was a little duller, she also knew that the mistress had misunderstood what the two had just done, and she couldn't help but
Her heart tightened. In the Lin Mansion, Tang Yuxiang, the head matron, was her immediate boss. If she made her unhappy, she would probably suffer a lot in the future.
"Don't be afraid, although Yu Xiang doesn't like to laugh, she is still a good person." Lin Jingzhi saw Aunt Rou looking frightened, so he quickly comforted her, and then said: "You go find some strong ones first.
Let the old lady carry me to the outer courtyard, and then go to the gate to see if the carpenter I'm looking for has arrived."
Aunt Rou didn't dare to agree to carry him out at first, but seeing his insistence and showing signs of getting angry, she accepted her fate and found four rough women, and then carried him with a chair.
When they arrived at a wing in the outer courtyard, although Aunt Rou was timid and fearful, she was still an underage girl. Although she was frightened by her childish nature, she also did not forget to criticize Tang Yuxiang for choosing someone to serve the second master instead of her.
, if Old Mrs. Lin knew about this, she would have to be skinned.
At this time, the sun had just risen as high as a bamboo pole and was still a little cold. Lin Jingzhi also knew that his body could not withstand the torture, so he asked Aunt Rou to wrap him in a thick quilt. It took about half an hour.
Finally, a boy finally brought two carpenters. The two carpenters were a father and son. The older one was named Liu Zheng and the younger one was named Liu Hai. They were both wearing coarse clothes and carrying tools on their backs. After entering the door, they followed
The boy behind him also bowed his head and knelt down.
"Second Master, these two people are named Liu Zheng and Liu Hai. They are famous for their carpentry skills. Many high-ranking officials and nobles have hired them to do exquisite carpentry work." The boy knelt on the ground and introduced.
Lin Jingzhi nodded and signaled the boy to step back, and then he carefully looked at the two carpenters in front of him. Liu Zheng was about forty years old, strong and honest, and he could tell at a glance that he was a man who could endure hardships.
He is an honest man with a thinner bangs. He must be under 20 years old. His skin is tanned and rosy due to working in the low sun for many years.
Just when Lin Jingzhi was about to explain the purpose of inviting them here, young Liu Hai could not help but feel curious, secretly raised his head and looked at him, and then his eyes turned to one side.
A blush appeared on his face.
"Ahem." Lin Jingzhi knew that Liu Hai must have seen Aunt Rou, and that's why he was so embarrassed. Of course, he didn't care about it, but he was actually amused that Liu Hai was so simple, and he just glanced at Aunt Rou, and would be like this.
Ashamed, in order not to embarrass the boy in front of him, he quickly said: "The thing I want to make is very simple. As long as a carpenter who can make chairs can make it, but after it is finished, the appearance must be carved with some exquisite patterns. This
You have to test your skills."
When Liu Zheng and his son heard the first half of the sentence, they were still dissatisfied. They felt that taking this job was a bit unfair and they might not make much money today. However, after hearing the second half of the sentence, they both felt happy and nodded happily.
The most difficult part of carpentry is carving patterns. If your hands don't have some real skills, ordinary carpenters really don't dare to start.
Otherwise, not only will you not be able to make money if you engrave it, you will also have to pay for it.
"Rou'er, bring a pen and paper." Lin Jingzhi didn't draw the picture in advance because he was afraid that the two of them wouldn't understand it well, so he planned to explain while drawing. There is a study not far from this wing, so Aunt Rou
It only took a little effort to bring the paper and pen and ink in. After Lin Jingzhi took it in his hands, while Aunt Rou was grinding the ink on the side, he started to draw. Although the brush was not easy to use, it was also difficult to use.
Not to mention him, there was a time in his previous life when he liked to draw cartoon characters in anime, so he had some painting skills.
The Lin family is a wealthy family, and they are particular about everything. Insufficient quality is not enough, so Lin Jingzhi deliberately designed the recliner to be more complicated, so that it could be worthy of his status. In addition, he planned to spend all day and night in the future.
He slept on it, so he doubled the size of the recliner, making it more than two meters long.
Liu Zheng and his son listened quietly to the explanation, and the more they listened, the more they frowned. It seemed that this job was really difficult.
"Okay, that's it for the frame structure. After it's finished, we can carve some nice patterns on the outside." Lin Jingzhi felt a little thirsty after saying that, so Aunt Rou quickly brought a cup of tea and handed it to him.
in hands.
Lin Jingzhi first nodded to Aunt Rou, and then took a sip of tea. Just when he wanted to add something, there was an announcement outside the door, and then a young man in Tsing Yi who was about twelve or thirteen years old
The servant ran in, and regardless of everyone's eyes, he hugged Lin Jingzhi's legs and choked with sobs: "Second Master, you are so blessed that you have finally woken up. Do you know that you have been serving me for the past three days?"
I can't eat well and sleep well, and I'm worried to death."
Lin Jingzhi was stunned at first, and then felt a sore nose. This servant was the late Lin Jingzhi's personal servant and was extremely loyal to him. Although he was not yet fourteen years old this year, he had served Lin Jingzhi for six years.
Over the years, he gently stroked Shi Mo's head and said, "Stop crying, get up quickly."
Shi Mo responded with sobs and cried again: "I wanted to go in to see you the day before yesterday, but I unexpectedly met the Third Master at the door. He didn't agree to anything."
Third Master?
Lin Jingzhi’s concubine brother, Lin Lizhi?
The image of a swinger flashed through Lin Jingzhi's mind for a moment, and then he comforted him a few words and said: "Stop crying, or I will tell Cui'er to see if she will marry you in the future."
As soon as these words came out, Shi Mo's face instantly turned red and he said anxiously: "Second Master, you know how to tease me."
Xiaocui and Shi Mo have made a baby engagement. She is thirteen years old and has a strong temper. She looks down on boys who love crying, so Lin Jingzhi makes fun of her.
Fortunately, although Lin Jingzhi had an old-fashioned temperament in the past, he only liked to joke with this personal servant, so Shi Mo did not notice that Lin Jingzhi in front of him had changed into another person's soul, "Second Master, today I am not only here to see you.
Besides, I still have something to report to you."
"Oh, what's the matter?" Lin Jingzhi asked with a smile.
Shi Mo first looked at the people in the room, and then put his mouth to Lin Jingzhi's ear and whispered a few words. In Shi Mo's opinion, this matter was either big or small, but he didn't expect Lin Jingzhi to hear it.
Later, his expression changed drastically and he exclaimed: "Is this really happening?" dd
