Chapter 553: A Great Tribulation Strikes
Midnight had passed, the wide street of Kaifeng Fu Street was empty, and more than a dozen horsemen galloped past and stopped in front of a tall mansion. Lin Jue turned over and dismounted, strode up the steps quickly, stretched out his hand and knocked on the beast ring on the door, clanging.
Someone inside shouted, "Who? Do? ”
Lin Jue said in a deep voice: "Open the door, I am Lin Jue." ”
There was silence for a moment, and soon someone opened the door, but saw seven or eight housekeepers standing inside the door with lanterns. One of them arched his hand and said: "It turned out to be the son of Sanfang Lin, the right ......."
Lin Jue interrupted him and asked in a deep voice, "What about your second son?" Where? ”
"Second son? In the back house too. The little one will go and report it. ”
Lin Jue nodded and walked towards the front hall, and said, "Okay, let your second son come to the front hall to see me quickly." I waited for him. ”
Not long after Lin Jue sat in the hall, Lin Sheng arrived from the back of the hall in a panic. Seeing Lin Jue, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How is it?" Have you seen my daddy? Where are the people? ”
Lin Jue waved his hand and retreated from everyone, and then told Lin Sheng about the visit to the prison in the Yushitai. Lin Sheng's face turned white after hearing this, and he said in a trembling voice: "So...... Daddy is afraid that he won't be able to survive? That's all over. How did he commit such a big thing? What should I do? What should I do? ”
Lin Jue frowned and said: "Don't be so panicked, now that you are the only one in charge of the overall situation in your mansion, if you are so flustered, won't the people in the mansion be panicked?" Now that the case has not been formally tried and convicted, it will take at least ten days for the Imperial Historical Observatory to collect and improve the evidence, and we still have time to figure out a way. You have to hold steady now. ”
Lin Sheng slumped on the chair, as if all the muscles and bones in his body had been drained, and muttered: "How can I still hold on, according to what you said, Daddy is guilty of a capital crime." ”
Lin Jue shouted coldly: "If you can't stabilize it, you have to hold it down, unless you want the second uncle to die, you have to hold it for me." I immediately sent someone to Hangzhou overnight to report the news, and asked the uncle to go to Beijing immediately to preside over the discussion. It was a southerly day, and the fast horse hurried to deliver the letter, and the fast boat could arrive in seven days. We'll find out then. What you have to do is to stabilize the people in this house and not make a mess. There is also the possibility of sending some food, drink and clothing to the second uncle when he can visit, the environment inside is very poor, and the second uncle may not be able to bear it. And you must not cry so sadly when you go to visit, that will affect the second uncle's mood. If you can't stabilize your emotions and the second uncle is gone, it's your responsibility. ”
Lin Sheng's face turned pale, and he nodded: "Okay, listen to you, listen to you." ”
Lin Jue saw that he was terribly afraid, so he comforted him warmly: "I already have a preliminary rescue plan, and I will do my best to rescue the second uncle." You don't have to worry too much. The boat is naturally straight to the bridge, and I believe that things are man-made. ”
Lin Sheng nodded and said, "I definitely believe you, but my mother is very scared." After I came back from you, I have been comforting them in the back house, crying so loudly that my head hurts. ”
Lin Jue frowned and said, "What did I let you do?" You can't even settle this matter? ”
Lin Sheng was speechless in shame, and couldn't help but sigh.
Lin Jue frowned and said, "Take it and take a look." ”
Lin Sheng nodded hurriedly, got up and walked to the back house with Lin Jue. After the second entrance, I heard a noisy noise in the back house. Lin Jue's brows furrowed, and he followed Lin Sheng into the round door of the back house. I saw a group of women chattering around the door under the porch of the main room in front of me.
"Why don't you let us go? Don't think we don't know the situation, the head of the family has committed a big crime this time, and I'm afraid we won't be able to come out alive. This matter may implicate the people in the house. Instead of waiting for someone to raid the house, it is better for everyone to disperse. Anyway, we are not your Lin family, why don't you allow us to leave? ”
"That's it, if something happens to your Lin family, it's okay if you're unlucky, why don't you drag us to be buried together, right? When the lord first married me, he said that the one who made me happy with him was not destined to die together. We have served him for so many years, and we haven't caught anything, so can't we leave with a good body? ”
"It's about that you don't treat you well on weekdays, and people all day long point fingers behind your back, calling us bitches and bitches. Now that we're going to die, don't you dislike us as bitches? We won't finish with your Lin family. ”
An old woman stood in the door trembling angrily, pointed to these women who pointed their fingers and eyebrows and said: "You ruthless and unrighteous things, you usually pestering the master like a fox, buying jewelry and asking for silver, the master is so dazzled by you." It's good now, but when disaster strikes, you will have to run away. Are you worthy of your lord's favor for you? You are really a bunch of shameless things. ”
"Hey, I said eldest sister, that's not what you said. The old man is obsessed with us, why are we obsessed with him? You yourself worship the Buddha and eat fasting all day long, so naturally the master came to us? You also know what we used to do, the lord wants our face and means, isn't what we want is the lord's money and things? To each his own, what is there to say? Could it be that the old man is strong? Hee-hee, laughing to death, pulling a strong man on the street is also better than the old man in bed. Our sisters have been following the master for so long at a young age, and they are already very worthy of him. At this time, we don't want to accompany you to death. ”
"Shame on you! It's so shameless. The old woman shivered angrily.
Lin Jue and Lin Sheng stood between the corridors and listened to all these words, and he looked at Lin Sheng with a frown and inquiry. Lin Sheng didn't dare to look at him.
Lin Jue said coldly: "Who are these people?" ”
Lin Sheng said: "Several aunts are all married by my father...... The red card in the green building. Noisy to leave. I quarreled with my mother and I for a long time. ”
"What a crap!" Lin Jue couldn't help but scold: "It's a shame that you are still the son of the Lin family, these people are so unruly, and you still tolerate them." ”
How dare Lin Sheng say more, if it was usual, Lin Jue scolded him to his face like this, he would have to go crazy. But now he has no master, and he completely relies on Lin Jue to make up his mind, and he can only endure it when he is scolded. What's more, he didn't want to condone these aunts, but he and the two foxes among them were secretly a little unclear, and it was really difficult to speak.
Lin Jue stepped forward and appeared, shouting, "What are you making a lot of?" No one is allowed to leave. I'll be honest and stay in my room. ”
Lin Jue's sudden appearance and speech startled several noisy women. They turned their heads and found a strange young man coming, followed by the second son, Lin Sheng, and thought it was Lin Sheng's follower, and it was Lin Sheng who ordered this person to come out and speak.
"Who are you? Can you take care of our business? Second son, now that you have grown up, do you even dare to take care of your seventh aunt's affairs? A woman with fluffy hair in a somewhat kitsch voice exclaimed.
"That's it, Xiao Qi, you usually hurt the second son, and you are glaring at you." The woman next to her teased with something in her words.
Lin Sheng stepped forward and said with a smile: "A few aunts, this is Lin Jue's son in the third room of my Lin family, my cousin." ”
"Oh? Lin Jue? I've heard of it, isn't it the concubine in the third room of your Lin family? I heard that I won the top prize. But so what? When will it be his turn to take care of things here? Your Lin family is really strange, there is no upper or lower. Did the son of the third room talk like this when he saw us? The seventh aunt sneered.
Lin Jue ignored her, walked up to Lin Bonian's original partner Yuan, and bowed: "Erniang, Lin Jue is polite." ”
Yuan is in his early fifties, with an aging appearance and gray hair. is old and decrepit, only recites Buddha and eats fasting every day, and does not care about Lin Bonian marrying one concubine after another. But after all, she is the original wife, and if something happens in the family, she naturally can't stand idly by. Therefore, she had to come out to preside over the situation, but because she was honest and honest, she didn't have much prestige at home on weekdays, so she was besieged by a group of side rooms, but she couldn't cope with it clumsily.
The Yuan family had met Lin Jue once, and Lin Jue had visited him once when he came to Beijing, and he had said a few words.
"Lin Jue, Sheng Er said that you went to inquire, did you see your second uncle?"
"See, my nephew has already told my second cousin about this, and I will let my cousin report to my second mother later. What's going on here? What are these guys making a fuss about? Lin Jue asked.
"Hey, when the disaster comes, they will fly separately, they know that my Lin family is in trouble, so they have to pack up and leave. forced me to write them a letter of resignation. The family is unfortunate, your second uncle provoked such a person, it is simply insulting to the family. Yuan sighed.
"Hey, eldest sister, what are you talking about? The truth is clear to all of us. We didn't come to accompany the master to die, I knew that today, who would marry your Lin family? You have to force us to stay and die together, isn't that a lack of virtue? Immediately the women quit and cried out.
Yuan looked at Lin Jue and said, "Look, it's so noisy." It really didn't work, so they simply pulled them down. ”
Lin Jue turned his head, looked at the group of women in front of him, and said, "A few aunts, you are also the second uncle who married into the side room. Our Lin family did not dislike your previous identity, gave you fame and respect, and provided you with fine clothes and food. Now that the second uncle has just had an accident, you are like this, is this like words? Is this your way of being a wife? ”
"Don't talk this nonsense to us. Didn't your second uncle just take a fancy to our beauty and youth? What we like is that your Lin family is rich and has a home to support in the future. To put it bluntly, it's just a deal. Now your Lin family is unlucky, what are we trying to do? Will it be finished with you? That's not to think about. Aunt Seven's thin lips moved, and she said mercilessly.
"That is, how can it be justified. Talk to us about women's morals. When the old man saw us, he was in the green building, and he knew who we were. Don't tell us such a thing. Several women chimed in.
Lin Jue didn't want to say any more, he only sighed in his heart that Lin Bonian was also a scholar, how could he marry such a woman and enter the door. If it's just to play in the green building, it's okay, but I want to marry home. It's just unreasonable. These women don't know what shame and morality are, what they care about is Lin Bonian's status and money, but in fact, they don't have any feelings for Lin Bonian at all. They're right, it's a deal.
