In the evening, in a small courtyard at the east end of the Lin family's mansion, Huang Changqing was lying naked on the mat and moaning. He was covered with a layer of black, black, yellow and yellow medicine, which was like a lump of, and it was extremely disgusting to watch. A woman was sitting in a chair next to her, wiping tears from her eyes.

"Hey, why do you have such a heavy hand? You are also the chief steward of the Lin family...... Three generations of your family have been working in the Lin family...... Just for the sake of the concubine in the third room, the head of the family let people beat you like this, this is too reckless, right? Ay...... After all, the Lin family is still the Lin family, even if it is a concubine, it is more noble than our foreign surname. You worked hard for the Lin family, but people didn't take you seriously......"

The woman was babbling and talking, and Huang Changqing, who was already in a terrible mood, finally couldn't bear it anymore, propped himself up and scolded angrily: "Bastard, can't you let me be quiet for a while?" You woman, Lang Zhong has been nagging until now since Lang Zhong left, do you want to annoy Lao Tzu to death? Get out. ”

The woman patted her thigh and said, "Is the old body wrong?" Are they taking you seriously? It's not like you're going to fight, it's all ruthless? ”

Huang Changqing was furious, reached out and grabbed the bamboo pillow on the bamboo mat and threw it over, because of the pain in his back, he was crooked when he threw it, the bamboo pillow was too far off, and he flew out of the door a few feet away from the old woman's body.

"Oops." There was a loud shout outside the door. Huang Changqing was stunned for a moment, looked at the door, and saw a figure rubbing his arm appear at the door.

"Uncle Changqing, who is this angry with? So angry? I've been smashed. Hehehe. The figure chuckled.

"Oh, it's Lin Quangongzi, this is rude. What are you doing, woman? Why don't you put on my clothes and help me up? The eldest son of the third room is here. ”

The woman agreed repeatedly, hurriedly stepped forward to cover Huang Changqing's back with a thin shirt, and helped him sit up with bared teeth.

The person who came was Lin Quan, who was carrying a few bags of gifts in his hand, and walked quickly to the bamboo bed and said repeatedly: "Don't get up, don't tear the wound." ”

The old woman saluted Lin Quan on the side, and Lin Quan returned the salute. The old woman couldn't help but say, "Prince Lin Quan, the head of the family is too ruthless." How can the old man of my family be regarded as loyal to the Lin family for so many years, how can a little thing be like this? Can he stand this old bone? If you say it in front of the head of the house, you will say ......"

Huang Changqing frowned and interrupted: "Roll on, why can't you stop this broken mouth?" Don't want to make tea yet? Less mixed with the matter? What do women talk about? ”

The old woman snorted and turned to make tea.

Huang Changqing turned to Lin Quan and arched his hand: "I'm really sorry, this woman in my family has a really broken mouth." You don't bother with him. Please take a seat, please take a seat. ”

Lin Quan smiled, sat on the bamboo chair, and said with a smile: "Uncle Changqing, what is there to be sorry for, what Auntie said is right." Today the steward was wronged. I felt very uneasy in my heart, and I was supposed to come to visit in the afternoon, but I was afraid of a lot of people, and I was afraid that it would delay your healing, so I did not come until this time. Steward Huang won't blame me. ”

Steward Huang hurriedly said: "What did you say, it is my Huang Changqing's honor that my son can come to visit me." ”

Lin Quan sighed and said, "In fact, the head of the family can't be blamed for this matter. After all, on such an occasion and in that situation, the head of the family cannot fail to act in accordance with the family law. ”

"How can I blame the head of the house? The three generations of my Huang family have worked in the Lin family, and the Lin family motto is my Huang family motto. Maintaining the Lin family is the only mission of my Huang family. How can I blame the head of the house? The head of the family is as kind to me as a mountain, and if he says that he beats a few thorns, what if he gives his life? Huang Changqing said generously.

Lin Quan picked his fingers and praised: "That's right, Lin Quan admires it very much." We have long regarded your Huang family as our own family. If you want to blame for today's events, blame that kid in my third room. I really didn't expect him to come to such a show today, and Uncle Changqing couldn't get off the stage. didn't expect that even Xu Zimao couldn't pass him. Did this kid run into evil? ”

Huang Changqing waved his hand and said: "Admitting gambling and losing, since I am planted in his hands, he is considered to be clever in his means." The beating was also self-inflicted. ”

"You can't say that, Uncle Changqing is magnanimous, isn't it conniving at him to be evil? My Lin family has rules, Uncle Changqing is the big housekeeper, the head of the family, the three brothers of the big house, and I, Lin Quan, all have great respect for Uncle Changqing. He is guilty of doing so. I have discussed this matter with several brothers, and I must not allow him to be so arrogant. Therefore, it is necessary to curb its arrogance. ”

Huang Changqing raised his eyebrows and looked at Lin Quandao: "The sons of the Changfang also think so?" ”

Lin Quan smacked his lips and said, "Of course, we are on your side, how can we allow this kid to be so arrogant?" He has a son, and he still wants to turn the world upside down in my Lin family? I am the head of the third room, and I am also responsible for this matter, I have no way to teach him on weekdays, and I have not been able to teach him well after my father's death. What you don't know is that after today's court training, he even dared to insult my mother and my mother, which really made me angry. He must be punished severely. ”

Huang Changqing's eyes widened, and he said in a low voice: "He dares to do this?" Even the old lady and the young lady in the third room are insulted? ”

Lin Quan smacked his lips and said, "Can I still tell a lie?" But you don't have to say anything about it, don't report it to the head of the family. After all...... After all, I don't want to make a fuss about it. ”

Huang Changqing is such a shrewd person, and he understands in a moment that there is a hidden secret. Lin Jue is a three-room concubine, give him the courage to do a day, and he doesn't dare to insult his aunt and sister-in-law. It must be Lin Quan's mother and mother who caused trouble first, and they didn't get any benefits, and it may not be reasonable to report to the head of the family, so they have to don't say it themselves. During today's court training, Lin Jue also shook out the matter of Lin Quanke deducting his monthly silver, and nine times out of ten it was because of this incident.

"It's still you who take care of the reputation of the Lin family, it's really not good to make trouble. The Lin family has such a concubine who does not distinguish between dignity and inferiority, which is really unfortunate for the family. What's even more worthless for me for my son is that in the future, half of the family property of the third room will be distributed to him, which is simply too cheap for him. What right does he have to share in your inheritance? ”

Huang Changqing seemed to sympathize with Lin Quan, but he actually added fuel to the fire. He knew that this was Lin Quan's heart disease, and he didn't know how many times he had said it openly and secretly, so of course he had to prick Lin Quan's heart with a needle at this time.

Lin Quan's face really became ugly, and his teeth rattled, this was indeed the most unhappy thing for him. Originally, the property of the third house was owned by himself, but now according to the law, he has to give half to Lin Jue, which is really annoying. And in two years, when Lin Jue was twenty years old and weakly crowned, he had to do this. Originally, the three-room property was not as many as the two-room and the big house, but it had to be divided into two, which was really annoying.

He didn't think about it. I'm not going to teach him to succeed. Uncle Changqing, Lin Jue's matter must be resolved, how can he be so arrogant and not punished. Uncle Changqing, you have a lot of ideas, what do you say about this matter? I and several sons of the long house support you, and we can't let Lin Jue go away. Otherwise, wouldn't he have to ride on our heads in the future to and pee? Lin Quan didn't hide it, he came to discuss with Huang Changqing how to deal with Lin Jue.

Huang Changqing groaned, twisting his beard and not speaking. As soon as Lin Quan opened his mouth, he knew his intentions. He came to himself to talk about the beating he was beating this time. It seems that he is upset for himself to be beaten, but in fact, he is taking this opportunity to help him stink Lin Jue, so as to deprive Lin Jue of his qualification to inherit the family property.

For Huang Changqing, this matter is also beneficial to himself. It's not all because of today's events that you have to get back to the field. It's the housekeeper of the Lin family, who has to hug the thighs of the extremely in-law son. You can't offend these sons, otherwise you won't be able to gain a foothold.

"Speak, Uncle Changqing, don't you think about it?" Lin Quan frowned.

"Childe, don't worry, as far as I am concerned, I naturally can't complain and complain because of today's incident, or even do something unacceptable. However...... If this matter is related to the son, and Lin Jue makes a disrespectful move to respect the elder, how can I sit idly by? But this matter should not be rushed, and what is needed to pass the level of the head of the family is conclusive evidence. If Lin Jue does something that does not conform to the family rules, and there is evidence in hand, he can be justified at that time. It's best if he does something that the head of the family doesn't allow, and then he can be expelled from the Lin family according to the family rules, and then it's over. Huang Changqing said in a deep voice.

Lin Quan nodded again and again and said, "What Uncle Changqing said is very true, if you want to do it, you will be a hundred, and you will directly expel him from the Lin family." Uncle Changqing seems to have a clever plan? ”

Huang Changqing smiled: "What can I do, hmm...... All I can do is send more people to keep an eye on him and record his words and deeds when he leaves the cabinet. This is also the authority given to me by the head of the family, and no one will say anything if I do this. ”

Lin Quan nodded and said, "Yes, I don't believe he doesn't make mistakes." ”

Huang Changqing said in a low voice: "Everyone makes mistakes, as long as you want to find mistakes, it's very simple." But if you want to expel him from the Lin family, it must be a big mistake. I don't dare to say that I will be able to catch the handle. Lin Jue has always been cowardly and cautious, and he doesn't swagger outside, if he wants to catch him, I'm afraid it's really difficult. ”

Lin Quan frowned and said nothing, although the family rules were strict, the conditions for expulsion from the family were extremely harsh. The few clauses in the family rules that are enough to be evicted from the house, Lin Jue should not touch them at all. What to make friends with adulterous people and fornications. Things like doing evil, killing, and setting fire to indiscriminately don't seem to be done by Lin Jue, which is a bit difficult.

"In fact, you don't necessarily need to make big mistakes, if you keep catching Lin Jue's handle, and the days and months of court training will refute it, you can accumulate bad feelings. Even if he is not expelled from the clan, it is possible to deprive him of the right to inherit the family business. It's man-made, it's up to you to do it. Huang Changqing said in a low voice.

Lin Quanxi said: "What I said is that if a small amount is accumulated, the head of the family will be angry." That's it. Jiang is still old and spicy, and Uncle Changqing is still powerful. Uncle Changqing bothered and kept an eye on this kid, let's catch it if we have something, unless he sleeps in the house every day, he will never teach him to live in peace. ”

"If there is something, it will be grasped, can it be forgotten if there is nothing?" Huang Changqing said softly.

Lin Quan glared at Huang Changqing, and suddenly a smile appeared on his face, and he slapped Huang Changqing on the shoulder and smiled: "Hahaha, if you have nothing to do, you have to make trouble, everything is man-made." It's amazing. ”

Huang Changqing's body shook when he was patted, and the wound on his back hurt his heart, and he moaned loudly. Lin Quan hurriedly apologized, handed over a few kraft paper bags beside him, and said with a smile: "A little gift is not a tribute." A few packets of good medicine, plus a little healing advice. After the deed, I have a lot of thanks. Uncle Changqing recuperated from his injuries, and I left. ”

Lin Quan's figure had just disappeared outside the courtyard gate, and Huang Changqing's wife came in with tea.

"Huh? What about the eldest son of the third room? That's it? ”

Huang Changqing frowned and said: "If you make tea for so long, people have to wait to drink tea, won't they die of thirst." ”

The old woman said angrily: "Boiling water and making tea now, how can it be so fast?" Who knew he would sit down and leave? Hey, what is it? What a gift to bring. ”

The woman put down the tea and picked up the paper bag on the bed, and started it heavily, and her heart was overjoyed. Reaching out and tearing open the paper bag on the top, two yellow, orange and orange gold ingots were revealed.

"Hey, gold ingots. There are as many as ten taels. Hehehehe, great, Amitabha, such a magnanimous son of Lin Quan. ”

Huang Changqing frowned and looked at the happy woman, and reprimanded: "If you don't put it away, what are you promoting?" ”

The woman happily put the ingots into her sleeve, stepped forward to help Huang Changqing lie down again, and asked, "Why did he give such a heavy gift?" ”

Huang Changqing sneered: "What is this? What I want to do for him is to get tens of thousands of taels of silver for him, won't he put in the blood? Oops, are you old man trying to kill me? Lighter, lighter. ”
