Chapter 12 Aunt Xie

Aunt Xiangsige Xie Ningjin was Lin's father's vigorous love when he was young. The two had two sons and a daughter. Except for Tang's eldest son Lin Xin who died young, the rest were all born before Tang's regular wife.

Lin's father was born in Mengzhou, Hesi, and lived next to Xie's natal family. The two were childhood sweethearts, but after Lin's grandfather became an official in Beijing, he also hoped that Lin's father would become famous in Qingjing. Naturally, he looked down on the peasant's daughter and tried to stop her .

Father Lin couldn't disobey his father's order, and he didn't want to miss his youthful beauty, so he heard chickens dancing every day, and finally entered Weiwei Temple at the age of [-] and became a treasurer the size of a sesame seed. It was a little toe and embarked on the official career he dreamed of.

And because Grandfather Lin and Tang Shangshu from the former Ministry of Rites had a good relationship, and the latter joked that he would be the in-laws of his children. Tang Shangshu thought it was a joke after drinking, but who would have thought that Grandpa Lin really came to propose marriage, and Tang Shangshu was framed He couldn't go up and down the building, and he didn't want his daughter, who was well educated in poetry, to marry the son of a military officer. It took two years before he agreed to the marriage.

After marrying a daughter-in-law from such a clean family, grandfather Lin relaxed a little and asked Father Lin to go back to Maitian County, Mengzhou, and bring back the Xie family who was waiting to become an old girl to take a concubine, and took a small sedan chair into the mansion.

At that time, Lin's father insisted on letting him enter through the main entrance, but was scolded by Tang Shangshu, and only then was he carried in through the corner gate at night to be dragged down.

Compared with Tang's cold and proud, Xie's is much smaller. It can be seen from the clothes, Lin Changyi is gorgeous every day, wearing gold and silver, and Lin's father prefers Xiangsi Pavilion, the cost of food and clothing should not be so Being poor, it seems that Mrs. Xie deliberately lowered herself to please the principal.

Every time Lin Zhao saw Mrs. Xie, he would always wonder how such a cautious person gave birth to such a daughter as Lin Changyi. I remembered that the two sons, Lin Changzai and Lin Changxuan, were not so temperamental.

When he came in just now, in the Nuan Pavilion, he saw Yun Duo who was treating the wound. Although the hairpin wasn't pierced deeply, it was a little girl's face, her eyes were red, and she didn't know how much she had been wronged.

Hearing what Yun Duo said, Xie finally understood, took the hairpin with a broken horn, and when she came in, she saw Lin Changyi with a smile on her face. To be honest, her heart trembled.

Rao is her own mother, she can't help being nervous when facing this daughter.

Lin Changyi sat cross-legged on the tent bed, did not get up, but saw the hairpin in Mrs. Xie's hand, and asked softly, "Aniang, what are you doing with this thing?"

Mrs. Xie sighed, sat next to Lin Changyi, looked at the hairpin with her hand, and said regretfully, "It's such a good thing, it's a pity if it breaks, I'll ask someone to take it out and find a craftsman to mend it tomorrow." , you can still wear it, although the master now has a family business, but you can't forget the time spent when you were young, and every brick and tile is hard-won."

She was born in poverty, and she felt that she did not enjoy the blessing of wealth and wealth, so she felt pity for these good things.

Lin Changyi glanced over, smiled and put his hand on his head, his voice was as soft as water: "Mother, how do you know how to sew and mend, you are covered in patches all over yourself, do you want me to imitate your poverty?" I have been staying in Qingjing City for more than ten years, but in the end I am still petty, I have told you so many times, and I didn't listen to a word at all."

Her voice was so gentle and delicate that it made people a little dazed to say such excessive words.

Xie's face turned red immediately, he was at a loss holding the hairpin.

Lin Changyi took Xie's hand again, threw the hairpin aside, and said with a smile, "Aniang, the most despicable thing for a woman in her life is to be made a concubine for someone." Looking up in Xie's horror, she continued Said, "Let my children settle down as concubines as soon as they are born. Second brother studies so hard, but he is still a concubine. He can't even enter Huangmen Academy. I just have the most beautiful appearance in Manqingjing. You have to ask again and again for the banquet, and all of this is because of your mother, you are useless."

Xie clutched her fingers nervously, without saying a word, she was terrified of Lin Changyi, she was like a smiling Bodhisattva with the heart of hell, wrapped the sharpest needle with the softest cotton, People who are stabbed inadvertently are covered with cuts and bruises.

"Mother, why are you so obsequious in front of my aunt." Lin Changyi went to shake Xie's hand again, but the man dodged subconsciously, "It's obvious that father loves you so much, and father really loves you. He was restrained before. As for my aunt's natal family, now that the father-in-law is dead, my aunt has nothing to rely on, Aniang, as long as you move your finger, there will be no place for my aunt in this mansion."

Mrs. Xie trembled slightly, bravely got angry, and admonished in a low voice: "You...don't say such presumptuous words again."

Lin Changyi looked at her: "Aniang, you are always so timid, what are you afraid of? My aunt has been married to my father for so many years, and I stayed in her room a few times. Aren't you always serving me, Aniang? With your father pampering you, you can live a hundred times more nourished than you are now, so why bother to live with the little monthly money like you are now."

Mrs. Xie only felt that Lin Changyi was talking nonsense, and grabbed her sleeves: "What nonsense are you talking about, why is your father spoiling you? You don't know the depth." Some tears came out anxiously, "I entered the house as a concubine Yes, how can it be compared with Da Furen's background, I am already grateful for letting me eat, how dare you be presumptuous, don't say such things again."

Lin Changyi's eyes were dark, without any light, but he was still smiling.

Xie wiped away tears.

The mother and daughter are both playing the piano to the cow.

Mrs. Xie thought for a while, and emphasized: "Changyi, you have to be more peaceful. You are a concubine, and your mother is a commoner. You are trying to be ahead of Mingwei in every way. You are really ignorant. I see that the eldest lady is not kind. Jealous people, when Mingwei's marriage is settled, he will naturally arrange a good husband's family for you, in my opinion, you don't want to go to the banquet of the Sun family."

Lin Changyi turned her head, with a faint and gentle voice: "What's wrong with the commoner clothes, so what about the concubines, who said that only prostitutes in the world can enjoy great wealth, and those raised by aunts have to keep their tails between their legs. I don't believe it, I just want to live Well done." Slowly gripping her bright red nails, "I want to be the most beautiful girl in the capital."

Mrs. Xie sighed again and again: "You girl...you will get into trouble sooner or later! I can't talk to you. When your second brother and younger brother come back from their hometown in Mengzhou, tell him to discipline you!"

Lin Changyi remained silent. The second brother was a dead piece of wood. He gnawed on books all day long, but he didn't make any progress. The fourth brother was influenced by Xie's family since he was a child, and he also looked timid and humiliated in front of the main room.

Xie couldn't help crying again, and picked up the hairpin on the side: "I'll take it to repair, if you don't want it, I'll just take it away."

Lin Changyi lowered her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.
