Chapter 483
Xiang Ling seemed to have seen something terrible, and she stood frozen on the spot with her eyes wide open.
Yang Qingyun just glanced at her,
His eyes didn't stay on her long.
If the original person were here, he might still be angered by the other party's vicious words.
But Yang Qingyun didn't care at all.
Actually,
What he said about killing him was not empty talk.
He was indeed qualified and capable of taking the life of this harsh maid.
a slave,
Even if he killed him, according to the laws of the Song Dynasty, the most he could do was to compensate the owner's family for some property. If the owner's family was not satisfied and insisted on pursuing the case, he would only be imprisoned for a few years.
But this matter is due to the lax family tradition of the Lin family. If the Lin family is serious about pursuing the case, and when the cause of the matter is spread out, a slave dares to override his master and even ridicules the visiting guests. Then the reputation of their Lin family will be ruined. There is no need to hang out in front of other wealthy families.
Facing an ant that can be easily crushed to death,
Yang Qingyun naturally would not take his words to heart.
and,
I'm afraid that Xiang Ling's sarcastic words were not her personal behavior.
Yang Qingyun looked at the housekeeper ahead who was leading the way silently and silently.
"It is true that the master was kind in the past and was too tolerant of this humble maid, so that she lost the distinction between superior and inferior. Please forgive me, Mr. Yang."
The butler immediately apologized sincerely.
"It's just that this bitch is very popular with the eldest lady. She needs to be reported to the master before she can be dealt with. Please forgive me, Mr. Yang."
"You bastards, why don't you get out of here!"
While speaking, the housekeeper yelled angrily at the group of maids, which frightened the women one by one. They responded quickly and retreated, dragging Xiang Ling who was stunned in place.
Yang Qingyun stood aside and said nothing.
Just watching from the sidelines.
Ha ha,
He didn't come forward to deal with it until he spoke up. What did he do earlier?
An interlude,
Not much time was wasted.
After the butler brought Yang Qingyun to the living room, he served tea and then left, saying that he would go and invite the master.
Yang Qingyun sat on the chair and waited patiently.
the other side,
at the study,
Lin Zhengnan, the head of the Lin family, was standing with his hands behind his hands, looking calmly at a painting and calligraphy hanging on the study room.
behind him,
The housekeeper who had brought Yang Qingyun in earlier was describing everything that had happened previously in detail.
"Oh, my nephew has such courage?"
When he heard Yang Qingyun scolding the slave, a look of surprise appeared on Lin Zhengnan's calm face.
It seems that when he came to the door last time and was ridiculed by the maid, the boy's reaction was not like this, right?
perhaps,
Was it because the boy was completely unprepared last time?
Lin Zhengnan shook his head slightly.
That's it,
So what if you have some scholarly demeanor?
When they arranged to get married, the two families could be considered a good match.
but now,
After more than ten years of hard work, the Lin family has already become a wealthy family. It is rarely famous in the martial arts world or officially.
In contrast, the Yang family's family background continued to decline, and it was completely defeated until the death of the cheap brother many years ago.
Now that the boy is the only one left in their family, how can he be worthy of his daughter?
Especially when the girl of mine has shown great talent since she was a child, and has also been favored by Young Master Cang Yue, a young hero who enjoys great reputation in the world.If he could climb up to Young Master Cang Yue and have his care, then his journey in the Dian Cang Sect would be much easier.
In contrast,
It is not difficult to see the answer to who Lin Zhengnan would choose.
"That's all, let's go meet my nephew first."
Lin Zhengnan sighed,
After all, he still misses some of his old feelings, and just hopes that the face will not be too much, otherwise his family will not look good on his son-in-law's side.
Thinking in his mind, Lin Zhengnan turned around and left the study, heading towards the living room.
"Nephew Qingyun, are you okay lately?"
Yang Qingyun didn't wait long,
A strong voice came from outside the living room.
no one arrived,
The sound comes first,
Immediately afterwards, a gracefully dressed figure was seen walking in from the outside like a dragon and a tiger, and Lang Ran's voice resounded throughout the hall.
"I'm sorry, uncle, I'm sorry. Everything is fine, junior."
"Qingyun took the liberty to come to the door, please don't take offense to your uncle."
Yang Qingyun stood up, saluted him, and responded politely.
"Hey, what are you talking about? Your father and I were brothers who lived and died together. The two families have a life-long friendship!"
After some greetings, Lin Zhengnan was very enthusiastic.
But I just don’t know how much of it is sincere.
of course,
No matter what the other party is thinking in his heart, Yang Qingyun will not fail to be polite.
quickly,
The host and guest sat down respectively.
Then the two chatted for a while,
Lin Zhengnan, who was sitting in the front seat, thought for a moment, and then said with a heavy face:
"I already know the purpose of my nephew's visit. Now that you and Jiaoxue have grown up, it stands to reason that it is time to fulfill their engagement."
"It's just that this child Jiaoxue has been pampered and raised by me for many years. Since she was a child, she has never had a finger to touch the spring water. She never tires of fine food and delicate food. She also has a somewhat unruly personality. She is not a good daughter to husband and raise children, nor is she a good match for your nephew. , if she marries you, she will most likely have a restless family, and will only harm you in the end."
"How about your uncle being a bad guy here for once, breaking off the engagement, and then finding another good match for you?"
Lin Zhengnan had a good-for-you expression on his face, and he said to Yang Qingyun in a serious voice:
"Of course, if you think this is not enough, as compensation, no matter how high the price is, your uncle will definitely get you a place in the Taixue Palace that you have always wanted to enter. What do you think?"
Lin Zhengnan stared at Yang Qingyun's face,
Seeing the other person taking a sip of tea leisurely and calmly, a slight sigh could not help but rise in his heart.
Jiao Xue’s movements,
It's really a bit rough.
He asked the maid to go and ridicule the other party, hoping to humiliate the other party. With the scholar's temper, he would probably throw down the marriage contract directly in anger, saying that he could not afford it, and the engagement could be easily terminated.
But how could things be so simple?
Let’s not say whether it will work or not.
Even if it is successful, having the engagement annulled will cause damage to the reputation of his daughter's family. Who knows if Young Master Cang Yue will mind?
Therefore, the best way to deal with it is to deal with it privately, and then everyone will pretend that this matter has not happened.
It's a pity that when I found out,
It's too late to stop it.
"I know my uncle is doing this for my own good, but this is the marriage contract made by my late father. Before my father and mother passed away, I had always identified Jiaoxue as my daughter-in-law."
"No matter how difficult it is, this is the daughter-in-law chosen by my father and mother for my nephew. It is hard to disobey the parents' orders!"
"So, my nephew is determined not to terminate the engagement?"
Lin Zhengnan frowned and his words became slightly serious.
"No, I mean, you have to pay more!"
