Chapter 169: How to be good
♂
Lin Jue's heart sank suddenly, and he was busy asking the reason. Lin Hu quickly said the matter. It turned out that early this morning, Green Dance went to the market as usual to buy some vegetables and meat, daily necessities and other things. Just as she was passing through an alley on her way home, several people suddenly burst out of a carriage parked at the entrance of the alley, and pulled her into the carriage with her mouth and nose.
The men threaten Green Dance to keep quiet or kill her. Green Dance is so scared, where do you dare to resist? The carriage sped all the way out of the city, and Midori knew something was wrong. If these people kidnap them out of the city, they will not escape. So when the carriage passed the Qingbo Gate Bridge, Lu Wu took advantage of the unpreparedness of the people in the car and slammed his head against the car door and jumped out. The whole person fell from the high bridge into the river. Fortunately, there were no ships passing under the bridge at that time, and the water below was relatively deep, so Midori Wu fell directly into the river and was not fatally injured. Otherwise, if you fall on the deck of a ship, or fall on the rubble of the river, you will lose your life.
Rao is like this, Green Dance has many injuries on his body, and people are also scared. A passing boat rescued her, but the carriage was nowhere to be found.
After Green Dance was sent back to the Lin family, the servants of the Lin Mansion immediately sent a letter up the mountain to tell Lin Hu. Lin Hu and Gao Muqing were about to leave for Yunlin Temple when they got the news, so they immediately rushed to report it.
Lin Jue was anxious after listening to Lin Hu's report, and ran out with his legs, Green Dance was his own heart, how could Lin Jue have a little delay if something happened to her?
Xue Manzi, who was paying close attention to Lin Jue and the scholar talking under the corridor, rushed out and shouted at Lin Jue's back: "Lin Jue, where are you going?" It's not like that, how can you leave without permission? ”
Lin Jue didn't have the time to deal with him, and said as he ran: "Something happened at home, go back and apologize to Mr." ”
Xue Manzi looked at his back and stomped his feet and scolded: "It's amazing, this is the opposite." I have to go to Fang Dunru to complain, how can this behavior be connived? I'm. ”
Lin Jue, Gao Muqing and the others immediately went down the mountain and rushed home, and the Lin family's house had already turned upside down. Lin Boyong also got the news, although he was just a servant in the family, but after all, something happened at home, and he didn't know why, so he was calling a few insiders in the front court to ask questions at the moment. Seeing Lin Jue hurriedly entering the door, Lin Boyong hurriedly beckoned and asked, "Lin Jue, what's going on?" What's going on with that maid in your room? Have you made a feud with someone? ”
Lin Jue was in the mood to talk to him, frowned and said, "The head of the family, my nephew also just learned about this and was about to take a look." It's not enough to have a grudge, who can she have a grudge with? ”
Lin Boyong said in a low voice: "Did the matter of Guishan Island provoke the enemy?" Hey, I knew this was the end of the day. It's all at home. It's this little girl today, won't it be us tomorrow? Lin Jue, you have to figure this out well, but you can't make your family panic. ”
Lin Jue was extremely disgusted in his heart, Lin Boyong was not stupid, he should have smelled something. But what he said at the moment was something that Lin Jue never wanted to hear, he didn't care about the life or death of this little girl, the first thing he thought of was the safety of himself and several sons.
"The head of the family, I don't know the reason for the time being, it's better not to speculate, nephew will go and ask clearly, and come back to report." Lin Jue didn't want to talk to him more, so he walked straight away.
Lin Boyong frowned and looked at Lin Jue's departing back, turned his head to Huang Changqing, who was standing behind him, and ordered: "Changqing, go and tell the eldest and second child that they are not allowed to go out at night from now on." When you go out during the day, you need to bring more servants. There are also more people on the dock in the shop, and everything is carefully cared for. ”……
Lin Jue rushed into his small courtyard, and there were several maids in the outer room who were good friends with Green Dance standing in the courtyard, whispering something. Seeing Lin Jue come in, several maids hurriedly bowed their heads and saluted.
"What about Green Dance? What about him? Lin Jue asked.
"In the room." A maid gestured with her finger raised.
Lin Jue rushed into the house like a gust of wind and went straight to the west wing. Lu Wu was lying on his small bed, and a good maid next to him was waiting, and when he saw Lin Jue, he hurriedly got up to avoid it.
"Green Dance, what's wrong with you?" Lin Jue threw himself at the head of the bed.
Lu Wu lay on the bed groggily, and immediately opened his eyes after hearing Lin Jue's voice, seeing Lin Jue's concerned gaze, he couldn't hold back the horror and grievances in his stomach anymore, sat up and hugged Lin Jue's neck and cried.
Lin Hu and Gao Muqing, who were following behind Lin Jue, hurriedly withdrew from the room, and several maids also hurriedly retreated. Lin Hu actually knew about the matter between Green Dance and Childe for a long time, and he had secretly seen Childe kissing Sister Green Dance. Gao Muqing has also understood that this little maid is Lin Jue's heart since she lived in Lin Jue's small courtyard. Today, I saw the importance of this little maid in Lin Jue's heart, and after getting the news, Lin Jue's anxious expression was beyond words. Seeing the two hugging each other at this moment, I know that the relationship is not simple.
However, Gao Muqing didn't feel any discomfort, Green Dance was very cute, and he was a person who had always been by Lin Jue's side, so he had no reason to be unhappy. Besides, Green Dance's identity is just a handmaiden.
Lin Jue patted Green Dance on the back and whispered comfort, and then quickly checked Green Dance's body regardless of the suspicion of men and women. Although there had been extremely close contact with Childe, Midori Wu still blushed. But seeing the child's anxious appearance, Lu Wu felt sweet in her heart, and the little girl even thought that this time the distress was worth it.
There are mostly bruises on Lu Wu's body, all of which are scratches and collisions on the skin, which are not serious, but they look shocking. The side of his chest was black, his arms and legs were red, swollen and bruised in several places, and there was a wound on his fair and pink face that was more than an inch long, which was red and very piercing. The wounds have been medicated and appear to be fine. asked Green Dance if there was any special pain, Green Dance shook her head and said no, and Lin Jue was relieved. Midori Dance's speech was a little slurred, and it seemed that she was still more frightened than injured, but Midori had never experienced anything like this.
After being appeased, Lin Jue asked about the specific situation. Including the appearance of those people, what they said, whether there was any mention of the reason for the attack on Midori Dance, etc. The frightened Green Dance slowly settled down after Lin Jue came back. Leaning on Lin Jue's arms, he slowly recalled the situation in the car.
Of course, the appearance of those people was unknown, and when they were caught in the car, they only smelled a strong stench on their bodies. The men were also carrying knives, long knives around their necks, and Midori almost fainted with fright. Where do you dare to look at the looks of those people.
But Midori remembered what they had said. At that time, someone told Midori that if she didn't shout and scream, she wouldn't lose her life. Honestly, maybe you can let her go. Some people also say that if your son-in-law really cherishes you, you will not die. Unless your son-in-law doesn't care about you at all, then you can only die. And so these words were not clear, and the panicked Green Dance didn't listen to it at all. Even when she recalled it at this moment, she didn't know what she meant, and what she said was upside down.
"They stink, like ...... It's like the smell of seafood sold in the market, it's very stinky and smelly. Midori added a special sentence. In fact, without her adding this sentence, Lin Jue basically confirmed the suspicion in his heart from her words. These people are Hai Dongqing's subordinates, and they are obviously not coming for Green Dance, but for themselves. In fact, it is not difficult to know their motive for hijacking Green Dance, which is to use Green Dance as a hostage to coerce and take themselves. Or simply kill Green Dance and intimidate and threaten yourself. They must have understood that after several unsuccessful attempts to intercept themselves, and with their own extreme caution, they needed to change their strategy. They couldn't find a chance in themselves, so they had to do it from Green Dance.
Lin Jue's heart rose with great anger and suspicion.
After comforting Green Dance, Lin Jue frowned and walked out of the room to the porch. Gao Muqing was sitting under the porch, stretching out his hand and unconsciously caressing the petals of a pot of blooming moon flowers. Lin Jue gently sat down beside her and sighed.
"Green Dance is fine." Gao Muqing looked at a red apricot branch out of the wall in front of him and asked softly.
"It's fine, just frightened, some skin trauma, it's fine."
"They did it?" Gao Muqing said.
"At the moment, it seems that the best out of ten is. They tried to coerce me with the Green Dance. Or kill Midori Dance and intimidate me. Lin Jue gritted his teeth and smashed a dirt stump in his hand.
“…… Sure enough, it still came. I didn't attack you, but I did it to the people around you. This bunch of bastards. Gao Muqing said in a low voice.
Lin Jue said coldly: "It's not just a bastard, it's a group of guts things, how despicable it is to attack a maid." ”
"Hai Dongqing acts but seeks the end, regardless of the means. Besides, maybe this is an effective way, and it will be easier to deal with your little maid than against you. But the damage done to you is enormous. Gao Muqing's words carried a faint sourness.
Lin Jue was unconscious, frowning and silent.
"If Green Dance is really taken away by them this time, and she wants to blackmail you in exchange, will you be willing?" Gao Muqing asked softly.
"I will, Green Dance and I depend on each other, we are already a family, it can be said that her life is my life, I must not allow her to be hurt." Lin Jue said in a deep voice.
Gao Muqing sighed and nodded slowly. Lin Jue continued: "But what I wonder is, why did they choose Green Dance? Green Dance is just a little maid of mine, why do the pirates think that a little maid is so important to me? There are so many people in the Lin family, it stands to reason that the head of the family, several sons, and even many people in the back house are much more important than Green Dance, why would they conclude that catching Green Dance would be useful to me? ”
Gao Muqing also frowned, and when Lin Jue said this, she also felt strange. It stands to reason that a little girl's life is not valuable, and it takes a lot of other people to coerce Lin Jue, but they know exactly that Green Dance is more important than others in Lin Jue's mind.
"What do you think?" Lin Jue asked.
"I don't know. Maybe you're too good at Green Dance on weekdays, as everyone knows. ”
"Even if I'm good to Midori, I'm like family, and I can do anything for her. But no matter how it spreads, it can't reach the ears of the pirates? How do they know? Yes, I turned my face to my half-brother for the sake of Green Dance, but only a few people in the Lin family's mansion knew about these things, how did the pirates know? ”
"What do you mean?" Gao Muqing looked at Lin Jue in surprise.
Lin Jue shook his head and said, "I don't mean anything. It's just speculation. This made me angry, maybe I was overthinking it. ”.
