Chapter 458: Bumped
The Lin family's house in Yangzhou is actually not very big, because this house is at most Lin Yingyue will often come to live in on weekdays. In addition to the main hall, there are only four wings in total. There are usually a few old mothers who take care of the house, and after Lin Yingyue came today, she gave them a holiday and let them go home.
The house where Brother Shi and Lin Yingyue were located was a wing room in the west wing of the house, and Qingshuang and Qinglu were right next door to them.
Qingshuang didn't dare to see Shi Yuan at this time because of what happened before, and Qinglu had to accompany her sister.
"Sister, you said that Miss has been gone for so long, why hasn't she come back? That shameless person must be bullying Miss again! Qinglu said angrily while boredly sorting out the books on the table that didn't look very messy.
Qingshuang, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, had just changed the futon, and her face couldn't help but turn red when she heard her sister mention Shi Yuan again, but she still shook her head and dissuaded: "Qinglu, don't talk nonsense, Shi Gongzi ...... him"
"What about him?" But Qinglu didn't wait for her sister to finish speaking, which interrupted her. After asking a little dissatisfied, he continued: "He treated you like that before, why do you still help him speak?" ”
Qinglu is straightforward and fast-hearted, and when Qingshuang heard it, his face was flushed...... "Qinglu, you have to talk nonsense!" Before...... It was just Shi Gongzi who was careless before! Where is there a ...... for me? You...... Don't talk nonsense! ”
"Humph! He told you those ghostly and foxy stories, I think he just wanted to scare you on purpose, and then he ......" Qinglu followed his own conjecture, but the more he talked, the more angry he became, he couldn't help but slam the book in his hand on the table, and said with great certainty: "He must have done that on purpose!" ”
Alas~ Qingshuang looked at her sister and sighed softly, but she didn't know what she should say for a while. Thinking of the situation when he was pressed under Shi Yuan before, his heart couldn't help but feel complicated again. Seriously, she now has some suspicions that Shi Yuan deliberately scared her before, because Shi Yuan really didn't leave her any image of a "righteous gentleman" on weekdays......
In the room where Brother Shi was, after hearing Lin Yingyue jokingly say that sentence, he was stunned for a moment, and then pretended to be full of grievances, and said, "Yue'er, how can you frame my innocence in vain?" Didn't I come to Yangzhou to worship my mother-in-law with you? I'm really sorry I didn't go to worship with you today! ”
"Really? Then tell me, if you are okay today, will you accompany me or Sister Shen? Lin Yingyue was naturally not so easy to fool, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she got to the crux of the matter.
And since Brother Shi dared to say this without fear, he was naturally prepared. So after Lin Yingyue asked, he looked at Lin Yingyue, who was lying on top of him, looking at him nervously, pretending to be a little embarrassed, and replied hesitantly: "This...... This one...... If I'm okay today, I'll naturally accompany you first, and then I'll go with Xiaowei! ”
Brother Shi's answer is actually very particular, this is what Lin Yingyue asked him, and he replied like this. And if Shen Wei asked him, he would definitely say the opposite...... And the meaning of this answer is the same, they are all saying that both of them will accompany themselves. But when the listener listens, the feeling is different!
As Brother Shi thought, after listening to his answer, Lin Yingyue nodded with great satisfaction, and then sighed softly and said, "My mother is the youngest daughter of the Yan family in Yangzhou, and she married ...... at the age of eighteen My father died when I was seven years old. ”
After Lin Yingyue said something briefly, there was no sound. Brother Shi, who was listening carefully, saw that Lin Yingyue hadn't spoken for a long time, so he looked up at her suspiciously: "This ...... That's it? Why was that Yue'er's mother buried in Yangzhou......"
Maybe Shi Yuan's words seemed to evoke Lin Yingyue's sad memories, or maybe Qingming's sadness infected her today. Her originally blushing face suddenly became a little gloomy: "Shilang...... I don't want to talk about these things today, and I'll tell you when I have time, okay? ”
Brother Shi, who had already called "Shilang", was all overwhelmed, and nodded subconsciously: Speaking of which, Yue'er just came back from worshiping her mother today, and the sadness in her heart must not have eased, and it is normal that she is unwilling to talk about these things...... However, Brother Shi was also more curious about this matter and which old man he had never met.
Brother Shi also heard Lin Yingyue mention it before, her father is now in Hangzhou. He didn't think much about it at the time, but now that he thinks about it, it's a little subtle. Today is the Qingming Festival, an important time for the Lin family to worship their ancestors, and his old man doesn't seem to have returned...... The second son of his dignified Lin family lives alone in Hangzhou, if there is no secret in this, Brother Shi will not believe it!
Thinking about this, Brother Shi didn't ask much, just patted Lin Yingyue's shoulder and nodded at her, then glanced out the window again, frowned and asked, "Xiaowei...... Why haven't you come back yet? ”
Let Shi Yuan mention this, Lin Yingyue couldn't help but think of Shen Weilai who went out with her today. It stands to reason that Shen Wei, as a person who practices martial arts, is agile and agile, so she should come back earlier than herself...... Even if she was delayed, she should be back now.
"Sister Shen, she went to the south of the city, and those refugees gathered in the south of the city, could something happen?" Lin Yingyue thought to herself, and muttered to herself with great concern.
After hearing this, Brother Shi shook his head silently and said, "I'm not worried about those refugees, but the prefect of Yangzhou......"
"Yangzhou prefect?" Lin Yingyue couldn't understand Shi Yuan's words: What does this Yangzhou prefect Jinyun have to do with Shen Wei?
Brother Shi nodded and explained: "According to my inference, this Yangzhou City ...... It is very likely that Baihua is behind the control! ”
"Hundred flowers? You mean......" Lin Yingyue heard the name Baihua, and subconsciously covered her mouth as she spoke. Regarding the grievances between Shen Wei and Baihua, Shi Yuan also told her before, but she never thought that Baihua would have such a big power! Can actually control a city and county......
"Isn't Sister Shen very dangerous? Why are you still ......" Lin Yingyue couldn't help but start to get anxious after a short period of shock, and there was even a faint sense of blaming Shi Yuan in her tone.
When Brother Shi heard that Lin Yingyue cared so much about Shen Wei, he couldn't help but be happy, so he quietly hugged Lin Yingyue, who wanted to struggle to get up, and then said, "Yue'er, you don't have to worry too much!" Since Xiaowei dared to come, she must be prepared! I'm afraid that she came to Yangzhou City to investigate something...... Maybe...... I'm back now! ”
As soon as Shi Yuan finished speaking, Lin Yingyue didn't have time to speak, when she saw that the door was suddenly pushed open......
"Childe ......"
Hearing the sound, Shi Yuan and Lin Yingyue on the bed turned their heads to look, but saw the person who pushed the door open...... It's Shen Wei!
