In the past, it was very difficult to find a starting point seriously.

Moreover, if she hadn't made a promise with Mei Hanran, Mei Hanran would not have traveled thousands of miles to ask for marriage, let alone be kicked out by her father now.

Now everything is her fault.

If she had stopped at this time, she would have truly become ungrateful.

She thought wildly in her heart, called the maid over, wrote a letter, took some silver taels, and said: "You go out quietly, inquire where Mei Gongzi lives, give this thing to Mei Gongzi, and ask him to treat his illness well, after a while, it will be the day when my mother will make incense and make vows, I will find a way to beg my mother to go out, you let him rest assured, what I want to say is in the letter, you must hand it over to him yourself." ”

The maid was very embarrassed, but she felt very sorry for the young lady, so she hurriedly answered.

As soon as the door was opened, the maid was pushed in again.

Lin Mingmei saw that the person outside was her sister-in-law Lin Mingyuan.

Lin Mingyuan glanced at the letter in the maid's arms, reached out and took it, glanced at it and said: "My sister is so Yaxing, I still have time to write a letter, my father and mother are about to get angry about your affairs, you are embarrassed to hook up with a man, and you are really shameless, how can my Lin family have a person like you." "Die

Lin Mingmei knew that Lin Mingyuan liked Xiang Boqing.

In the three years when she went out to study, Xiang Boqing came back from the capital, Lin Mingyuan liked Xiang Boqing after seeing her, but in the end, Xiang Boqing's marriage was promised to her, how did Lin Mingyuan swallow this breath.

Moreover, she went out to study for three years, and Lin Mingyuan also wanted to go, but was forcibly left behind by her mother because she had no daughter to serve under her knees.

Lin Mingyuan has to compare everything with her since she was a child, she naturally can't stand such a gap, and she will definitely hate her in her heart for the rest of her life.

Since she returned home, her parents have taken her the same as before, but this sister is even weaker than before.

Lin Mingmei stood up and motioned for the maid to go out.

The maid closed the door tremblingly, and every time the two young ladies were together, there was inevitably a battle of words, but in front of the old lady, she was very kind, and she was really panicked.

Lin Mingmei walked up to Lin Mingyuan and snatched the letter, she looked coldly at her arrogant sister.

is obviously similar to hers, but there is no trace of a cute look on this face.

She sighed silently in her heart and said, "You're here to see my jokes?" Do you want me to get out of the marriage, or do you want me to marry into the Xiang family smoothly, what is your own idea, if you have something to say, just say it, why bother to make everyone unhappy with guns and sticks like this. ”

"I've made your life so bad?" Lin Mingyuan jumped up as if she had been hurt by someone, her eyes widened and she sneered:

"Lin Mingmei, you are the one who made the whole family unhappy, your father obviously set a family for you, why don't you take the orders of your parents and the words of the matchmaker? You yourself are fishing for Brother Xiang on the one hand, and you are hooking up in the academy on the other hand, ruining your father's reputation, have you ever thought about where you let Brother Xiang's face go if something happens one day? Why would a noble man like him put a woman of such bad character as you on the table? ”

Lin Mingmei laughed angrily at her words, and she said coldly: "Look at what my sister said, I can't even hear what I said, are you my own sister or Xiang Boqing's own sister?" If you are my own sister, you don't plan for your own sister, but plan for outsiders, this is called eating inside and out, and coveting your sister's fiancé is even more shameless, if you are Xiang Boqing's own sister, why should you be in my Lin family, you can invite yourself to go out, go to Xiang's family to recognize your relatives, and see if you leave the Lin family, will the Xiang family treat you as a relative. ”

Lin Mingyuan was told that she had the most secret thing in her heart, and her pink face turned red, but she had never been as clever as Lin Mingmei, so she could only refute:

"You talk nonsense, obviously you don't abide by women's morals, can't I say it?"

"I can't tell! I am the elder, you are the youngest, and my parents are alive, even if someone wants to talk about me, it will not be your turn to teach me to my face, if you teach me that it is disrespectful to my elder sister, here, what good is it for you to ruin my reputation, you and I are my mother's compatriots, my reputation is bad, and your reputation is not much better. ”

Lin Mingmei was indeed angry with Lin Mingyuan today, and she said with some hatred:

"I always hope that you can be honest, I do like Mei Hanran, I dare to be honest with my parents to know, do you dare to be you? You obviously like Xiang Boqing, you don't tell your parents, and you don't dare to fight for yourself, you will only aim the gun at your sister. ”

"You think that if you knock me down, you will be able to get what you want, I tell you, there are broken bones and tendons between you and me, as long as the Lin family is here, I will never be able to fall, and your ghostly thoughts will be collected as soon as possible."

"If you generously admit that you like Xiang Boqing, and beg me to give you the marriage, I will also praise you for daring to act, if you don't dare to admit it, you will also take a break from thinking early, and the marriage with the Xiang family, even if it is not mine, it will not fall on your head, you are a simple-minded person, the Xiang family is not blind, and you can't look down on it."

Lin Mingyuan always felt that she was inferior to Lin Mingmei when she heard this, stomped her feet and said angrily: "You, you belittle me so much, how am I inferior to you?" ”

"Where are you inferior to me? You ask yourself, since you were a child, you have fought with me everywhere, when have I fought with you, I will give you the good ones, you like them, I obviously like them and say I don't like them, you didn't pick good things, I will change them with you if you want to exchange them with me, you obviously broke things yourself, I said that I made them, I pity you for your young age, and I confessed the punishment for you. ”

"You like Xiang Boqing now, if you tell me honestly, I may not think of a way for you, but you take my kindness for granted, think I should be like this, and want to practice me, do you know, what do I regret the most now?"

"What I regret most now is that I was too good to you in the past, and I raised you without gratitude, if I had started all over again, I would definitely discipline you well, so that you don't have to be so high-minded, eat in the bowl and look at the pot, and belittle others to elevate yourself."

"I, Lin Mingmei, ask myself to be an upright person, but I am such a vulgar and despicable sister, two types of people are raised by the water in a well, I really have nothing to say to you, you go out and reflect on yourself, in the future, my yard, you don't come, I will definitely serve you with sticks."

Lin Mingyuan was hit by such a big blow, her face turned red and white, white and red, and she was so angry that she trembled all over.

She looked at Lin Mingmei viciously, looking at the determined look on that face, she hated and envied in her heart, and she said angrily:

"Who do you think loves to come to your place, it is my mother who asked me to persuade you well, otherwise, who do you think is willing to come to see your face, you think that you have been studying outside for two years, and you don't take people in your eyes, you know, I am also ashamed to have a sister like you who teaches you privately."

She walked outside angrily, walked to the door, opened the door and said, "You take care of your maid, if I see her passing things outside, I won't come to tell you, I just beat such a rude and shameless maid to death." ”

She slammed the door shut, and the whole room shook with a loud bang.

Lin Mingmei's mind went blank, and she sat in her chair in a daze, falling into a state like dead wood.

Returned home three years later.

She found herself losing a lot.

The love of his parents seems to have faded, the estrangement between him and his sister has deepened, and the distance between him and his younger brother seems to be much farther away.

Now she is desperate, there is no way to ask for help, and she doesn't know what happened to Mei Hanran outside, when she thought of this, all the grievances poured up, and tears couldn't help but flow.

If she had known this, she would rather not tell Mei Hanran, who was an extremely simple person, and he said that he would wait for her for the rest of his life.

She just mistook her life, how could she mistake Mei Hanran's life.

What's more, he should have a bright future, if he was delayed because of himself, wouldn't it be his own sin.

She was thinking wildly, crying and crying for herself.

The maid pushed open the door, quietly brought a basin of water in, and persuaded distressedly: "Miss, you wash your face, there is always a solution to things, if you cry and break your body, there is no way." The old lady feels sorry for you, and one day she will figure it out, since the second lady likes Xiang Gongzi, why don't you talk to the Xiang family about the exchange of relatives? ”

Lin Mingmei shook her head. "The Xiang family will not change parents."

Xiang Boqing is the most valued son of the Xiang family, and everything his family gives him is the best.

His wife should also be the right person with him, although the second sister has the same mother as her, but the second sister is impetuous, and she offended the young lady of the Xiang family at the flower viewing banquet, and the young lady of the Xiang family is Xiang Boqing's sister.

's mother once told him that Xiang Boqing has always doted on this sister, and she has repeatedly confirmed that she is proposing marriage to her and not to her second sister, so she spit out and agreed to the marriage.

Otherwise, there are so many ladies in Beijing, why does he no longer talk about family affairs in Beijing, and he has to go back to Yanzhou?

However, she is the most suitable person.

Her family is comparable to him, her identity is comparable to his, she is in Yanzhou, and she will not cause trouble for him in the capital, such benefits, Xiang Boqing and the Xiang family can naturally see it.

As for the second sister, she can't bear loneliness, and she is not suitable for a high family like the Xiang family.

The second sister always thought that the Xiang family was an excellent marriage, but she didn't look at the Xiang family's marriage with the Lin family, not with Jingzhong, but because the Xiang family needed a good furnishing, and the Lin family needed a good backer.

As the governor of Yanzhou, the Xiang family does not want the forces in Beijing to infiltrate, and they also want to be the overlord of Yanzhou, they are unwilling to marry the magnates in the capital, but they also need Xiang Boqing to let the Xiang family go further, so they will urgently say goodbye to Xiang Boqing to avoid future troubles.

She's just the right person at the right time.
