Linglong

Chapter 56

The look of Jingxi fell into the eyes of old lady Yu, and she sighed in her heart again.Xiaoxi is an excellent child, sensible, filial, considerate and considerate, what a pity.

"Third sister, you went to the Chongshan Hou Mansion to open your eyes, and tell me and my eldest sister when you go home, okay?" Jingxi forced a smile: "Xishuiguan was a prosperous place in the previous dynasty. The Shanhou Mansion is huge, and there is Haizi in the mansion, so the scenery must be extremely beautiful."

When Mrs. Yu heard what Jing Xi said, she felt more pity for her.What a good boy, who knows a lot about the general situation. It's a pity that the Yu family is in such a situation. The Guan family has no obvious family background. Xiaoxi is good at everything, except that he lacks identity.

Linglong loves to brag and show off, but she doesn't care who she is with.If all the elders and relatives who cared about her, loved her and indulged her were all in front of her, Linglong would probably start to show off and brag with joy at this moment, but how could she be so blank in front of Mrs. Yu, Mrs. Guan, Jingjia, and Jingxi? ?Mrs. Yu is the grandmother of three granddaughters, Linglong is not alone, and she has to take into account the emotions of the other two granddaughters; while Guan Shi and Jingjia, Jingxi and Linglong are always separated from each other, no matter how close they are, there is no limit. Well, Linglong seldom has presumptuousness in front of them.

"Second sister, I may not be able to see it." Linglong said obediently: "I am going out with my aunt as a guest. The guest is up to the owner, of course it depends on the owner's wishes. I don't know what arrangements Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Chang will make. Woolen cloth."

Old Madam Yu was a little relieved to see that Linglong didn't get too complacent to show off with her sisters, but also remembered her duty as a guest.Although Shi Shilang and his wife spoiled Linglong too much, it was hard to see, but fortunately Linglong was still sensible and not spoiled by lawlessness.

"Will Long'er be restrained when she arrives at Xu's house?" Qiao's heart ached.

Seeing her like this, Old Madam Yu and Mrs. Guan were speechless.Which mother do you think doesn't love her daughter, but she is the one who is so spoiled with children.

Linglong hurriedly said comfortingly: "No, mother. Mrs. Wang has met, and the two sisters of the Xu family have also met. Although Mrs. Chang has never met, I heard that she is very gentle and has no airs. of."

"That's it." Hearing what Linglong said, Mrs. Qiao felt more at ease.

"You are so coaxing." Linglong smiled and Mimi looked at Qiao Shi, thinking happily.

It's good to have a simple mother, look, how foolish it is.

Both Mrs. Yu and Mrs. Guan gave Linglong a few words, nothing more than not being allowed to make up their own minds and obeying their aunt's words, Linglong agreed one by one, looking very obedient.

"Bring the two sisters from the Tang family, Xiao Hua and Xiao Han will also accompany you." Old Madam Yu said.

Since the Yu family is raising these women who know how to kung fu, Linglong will naturally take her with her when she goes out alone.Otherwise, what are these people doing for nothing?

"Yes, bring them all." Qiao agreed.

Her idea is very simple, the more people who can protect her precious daughter, the better, she still thinks four are too few.It's hard to find women who know kung fu, if they are available everywhere, it's easy to hire, she can invite ten or eight women back to Linglong in one go.

Guan smiled, "These people were originally prepared for the three of you, your elder sister and second sister are at home and don't go out, Linglong, you don't have to think too much, just take them all with you."

Linglong grinned, "Originally, it belonged to the three of us, the eldest sister, the second sister, and me, but now I use it all by myself, and I feel very sorry. Eldest sister, second sister, I will pick up some delicious food for you two on the way home, and bring a few more boxes." Come back with snacks."

Both Jingjia and Jingxi thanked Linglong, "Thank you for thinking."

Old Madam Yu ordered someone to bring over the flowers that Jing Jia and Jing Xi folded, and said with a smile, "Xiao Jia and Xiao Xi are interested, knowing that grandma is lazy to go out, so they specially folded flowers for grandma to enjoy." Linglong was curious. She took a look and said, "Elder Sister and Second Sister's vision is getting better and better. This flower is beautiful in shape, and the flowers are in bud. I think it will be in full bloom tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Grandmother, when you stay at home, you can enjoy Enjoy the view."

Qiao Shi and Guan Shi also praised, Jing Jia and Jing Xi said a few words of modesty, all of them were proud.

Jingxi smiled and said: "Third sister, second sister, can I pick a flower for you? The day after tomorrow, if you wear flowers to the Chongshan Hou Mansion, you will look fresh and natural, different from others."

"I'm not in the mood by myself, I can just dress up casually, there is no need to be overly particular about it." Linglong smiled and said, "The Marquis of Chongshan will definitely invite the three of us to go there together, and then we can discuss how to dress up. Also, after the Heqinghou Mansion moves in, there will also be banquets, and we will also be three sisters when the time comes."

There was a smile in Jingxi's eyes.

Mrs. Yu and Mrs. Guan looked at Linglong with a look of satisfaction.

On the contrary, Jingjia was quite calm, her expression was as reserved as before.

When Mrs. Qiao took Linglong to say goodbye to Mrs. Yu, Mrs. Yu was very amiable, and Mrs. Guan also smiled.

"Daughter, mother is actually still worried about letting you go out with your aunt alone. Fortunately, there are two sisters from the Tang family, as well as Xiao Hua and Xiao Han." Qiao Shi walked back holding Linglong's little hand, and said softly .

The corner of Linglong's mouth twitched.It's just that there are four of them, so I don't worry about it, okay?What are the details of these four people, I haven't fully figured it out yet.

"It's not that there are four of them, you have to worry about it. It's because I'm so smart, which is rare in the world, so you have to worry about it." Linglong boasted without shyness.

Qiao's eyebrows and eyes curved, "Yes, Long'er is smart, so mother should rest assured."

At night, Linglong practiced calligraphy in her room, leaving Tang Xiaoming alone to serve her.After writing a letter, Linglong looked at it casually, put it on the table, and simply ordered, "Send this letter to Wang Xiaosan as soon as possible." Tang Xiaoming was taken aback, "Miss San, what do you mean...?" Linglong contemptuously He curled his lips: "Aren't you sent by Wang Xiaosan? Don't pretend. You pretended to burn the chapter novel I wrote, but you actually sent it to Wang Xiaosan, right? There is also a letter that appeared on my desk inexplicably." , didn't you bring it here? Tang Xiaoming, don't take me for a fool."

Linglong is so angry in her heart, so don't mention it.

You may not understand what is going on with some things at the time, but when you calm down and think about it later, you will understand everything.The villain Wang Xiaosan said last time that I will take you away, little bell, I will take you to Nuer Gandusi, Linglong was really scared at the time, she broke out in a cold sweat, but later she realized that that was not his real purpose at all .

Linglong promised to write chapter novels for him to relieve boredom, so he began to relax, bah, it was clear that this was his goal.

Thinking about this matter clearly, who Tang Xiaoming belongs to, you can figure it out with your fingers.Linglong had only written a "Chapter Story" once before, and it was accidentally "burned" by Tang Xiaoming's clumsy hands.Besides Tang Xiaoming, who else would be the one who secretly sent the letter to Wang Xiaosan.

Tang Xiaoming knelt down with a plop, and said in a trembling voice: "The maidservant is just a pawn. The maidservant doesn't know who the master above is. Miss San, you...don't misunderstand..." She looked up at Linglong, her eyes There is a begging meaning in it.

Linglong wondered: "Looking at your appearance, could it be that Wang Xiaosan doesn't allow you to reveal your identity? But he didn't hide anything in front of me."

Tang Xiaoming was stunned, and said weakly: "The superior has not ordered it, and the maid does not dare to make up her own mind."

Linglong tsk-tsk, "The daring is still very strict. Okay, Wang Xiaosan is quite powerful."

Tang Xiaoming said in a low voice: "Miss San, my mother and my younger brother are both in the Yu family's Zhuangzi, how can I have two hearts? You don't have to be suspicious of me. Miss San is auspicious, and nothing will happen. If there is any danger, Even if my sister and I risked our lives, we must protect Miss San comprehensively."

Linglong was even more surprised, "Is your mother real? So is your brother?"

Tang Xiaoming's eyes turned red, "Of course it's true. And my father, it's also true. He really died of illness. When the old man was alive, he worked for the Wang family. My mother was also a servant at home. My sister doesn't need to do anything else every day, just practice kung fu. After my father passed away, my sister and I were sent on this mission. Miss San, I am loyal to you both in public and in private, really."

Linglong looked at her coldly, this Tang Xiaoming really looked like a girl with simple experience and no deep background in the city, but it was only a superficial phenomenon, and it was hard to say the real situation.Wang Xiaosan is not a kind person, how could his subordinates be any better?
Linglong smiled, and said slowly: "What is being loyal to me is that you don't take me seriously. You fought with Xiao Hua that day, but did you ever ask me what I mean? Tang Xiaoming, you are very good at making your own decisions "Tang Xiaoming took two steps forward, and hurriedly said: "That's not the case! The thief is right in front of me, I don't know what Xiao Hua's details are, how can I have the guts to leave Miss San to her for protection? I don't dare to talk to her without authorization. Let's do it, she was the one who attacked me first, I can't help but fight back..."

"I won't pursue the past with you!" Linglong straightened her face and asked straightforwardly, "What about the future? If you go out with me again, will you follow my orders, or continue to make up your own mind?"

Tang Xiaoming was stunned, kowtowed on his knees, and said in a low voice: "The servant girl was ordered to protect Miss San, so naturally she obeyed Miss San's orders."

She bowed on the ground obediently, and Linglong didn't dare to move if she didn't speak.

Wang Xiaosan, you are really... well-mannered.The corner of Linglong's mouth twitched.

The Yu family is a gentle and kind family. Although there are a lot of servants, Linglong is rarely seen in front of this battle, and he really can't get used to it for a while.

Tang Xiaoming knelt and did not dare to move, Linglong was also dumbfounded, a little at a loss.

After a while, Linglong followed Wang Xiaosan's example and said calmly: "Remember what you said today, and don't forget it. If you break your promise, I have my own way to deal with you. Don't kneel down, get up."

Tang Xiaoming kowtowed again, "Yes, I dare not break my promise." Standing up, I respectfully stood with my hands down.

"Miss San, His Royal Highness King Zhou led his troops to fight fiercely with the barbarians several times, and both sides suffered casualties." Tang Xiaoming said hesitantly, "I heard, I heard that he was also injured..."

Tang Xiaoming just said "he" vaguely, but Linglong knew that it was Wang Xiaosan.

"Is Wang Xiaosan injured?" Linglong opened her eyes wide in surprise.

Wang Xiaosan is considered a very important arms supplier, right?Status should be very important, right?He was also injured, which shows that the battle was really fierce.

"Miss San, you..." Tang Xiaoming looked at her beggingly, and timidly pointed to the letter on the table.

Linglong frowned and thought for a while, "I'll write another one."

Forget it, the wounded should be as warm as spring, and Wang Xiaosan is also considered a battle hero, so please send him a few kind words, anyway, it doesn't cost money.

Tang Xiaoming was overjoyed, "Miss San, thank you very much!" Excitedly blessed, he stood beside Linglong attentively, laying paper and rubbing ink for her.Linglong waved her hand, "Excuse me, stand a little farther away. When I write, I don't like people getting too close." Tang Xiaoming repeatedly agreed, "Yes, yes, keep a little farther away." up the wall.

Linglong tilted her head and thought for a while, then wrote with a pen: "Wang Xiaosan, I was very angry with you because you were so bad, you wanted to take me away and let me wash your clothes in ice and snow. I remembered these things I hate you very much, and want to beat you every day, you know? But when I heard that you were injured, my anger disappeared without knowing it, and I was very worried about you. Wang Xiaosan, although you have a bad temper, your flaws are not hidden, and you are still a nice guy..."

Linglong wrote a lot of childish heartfelt thoughts, and finally wrote: "There is still no chapter novel. I heard that you were injured, so I am not in the mood to write. Wang Xiaosan, I am very worried about you. I hope you get better soon. I call you every day. How are you? You know that someone beats you every day, and you must be panicking with hatred in your heart, thinking that you will come back to find her for revenge, so that you will have a heart, and the injury will heal quickly. "

After the letter was written, Linglong sealed it herself and handed it to Tang Xiaoming, "If it's a good letter, don't worry give it to him." Tang Xiaoming took it respectfully.

The next day Linglong went for a stroll in the garden alone, and specially called Xiao Hua, "I'm timid now, even in my own home, so please come with me." Xiao Hua readily agreed, and accompanied Linglong to the garden.

The Yu family's garden is at the back of the entire Yu family's house, and beyond the garden is the back garden of another family, separated from the Yu family by a small alley.Linglong wandered into an apricot forest with a few maids and Xiao Hua, a few black figures suddenly sprang out from the forest, their faces covered with black veils, holding long knives and ropes, they rushed towards Linglong!The maids were so frightened that they screamed and fled in all directions. Linglong had never seen such a real sword and gun before, she was so frightened that she didn't move.

With a long roar, Xiao Hua untied the silk sash around his waist as a weapon, and stood in front of Linglong!
"Miss San, follow me, don't run around." Xiao Hua told Linglong while defending against the enemy, "If you run away in fright, the thieves will divide their troops to catch you, but it will be difficult for me to protect you."

Linglong couldn't even nod her head, she stood there dumbly, neither moving nor speaking.

There are four people on the other side, and their skills are not weak. With one against four, Xiao Hua gradually lost the wind.From time to time, she let out a sharp howling sound, which should be calling for help to her brother and sister, but for some reason, no one came to rescue her.Xiao Hua couldn't help becoming anxious.

"Catch Yu Linglong! If you can't catch it, kill it!" The leader of the man in black said angrily.

Three people surrounded Xiao Hua, making fierce moves, and the other took out the rope and rushed towards Linglong.With a flash of Linglong's instinct, she actually dodged it. The man was furious, flashed his long knife, and stabbed fiercely at Linglong's chest!

"Don't!" Xiao Hua was shocked, ignoring the fierce offensive of the other three men in black, he jumped over and stood in front of Linglong!
At this moment, she seemed to be disregarding her own life, all she wanted was to save Linglong!

The four long knives were aimed at her together, but they did not land for a long time.

Xiao Hua thought he was going to die with Linglong, so he closed his eyes.

"Back off." Linglong's clear and sweet voice.

Xiao Hua opened his eyes fiercely, only to see the four people take off the black veil covering them, clasped their fists silently, and retreated to the side.

"This is the guards of my aunt's house, all of them are masters. Xiao Hua, you are not ashamed to lose to them." Linglong said very understandingly.

Xiao Hua was very annoyed, and pointed at Linglong angrily, "Yu Linglong, you don't believe me! You test me!"

Linglong looked at her strangely, "Shouldn't I test you? Xiao Hua, you were hired by the Yu family to protect the three of my sisters, but what have you done? The only time you made a move before was with Tang Xiaoming, right? Tang Xiaoming is my family's girl, you didn't resist my family's enemies, but you want to deal with my family's girl, should I trust you?"

Xiao Hua raised his eyebrows, "Those two girls surnamed Tang don't know where they came from at all, I don't know what their intentions are! They are unbelievable!"

Daring Tang Xiaoming can't trust her, and she can't trust Tang Xiaoming either.

Linglong looked at her coldly for a moment, and said: "Xiao Hua, you still go back and follow Chen Junyan, so we can get together and get separated."

Xiao Hua blushed, and spat, "Who knows that Chen Junyan! Miss San, don't think too much about people, I have nothing to do with Chen Junyan, I... I am..." She hesitated for a while, loudly He said: "Let me tell you the truth, the only ones who can make me give up my life to save the female family members of the Yu family are you and your mother! I don't care about the life or death of the rest!"

"What?" Linglong frowned.

The Yu family hired you with a lot of money, you said you only care about me and my mother, what's the reason?
Xiao Hua thought for a while, then sighed, "Perhaps we should make it clear to you and your mother as soon as we arrive at Yu's house. Miss San, do you know? Your grandmother is a strange woman, she has countless people in her life, we The parents who have passed away were once supported by her. Without your grandmother, my parents would have died long ago, and there would be no four of us, brother and sister. Do you understand? So, my brother, my sister and I came here to repay the kindness. The only ones to protect are your mother and her child."

Xiao Hua's appearance was very sincere, Linglong believed what she said, and thought silently: "My grandmother is a rare woman, this is for sure. Just look at my grandfather's memory of her. She passed away After many years, my grandfather never remarried."

"If something happens to your eldest brother and second brother, my two elder brothers will protect him with all their might; if you and your mother are in danger, my sister and I will sacrifice our lives to save them; Just try my best." Xiao Hua said calmly.

She made it very clear.The only ones who could risk their lives to protect were Qiao Shi and Qiao Shi's children.The rest of the Yu family can be saved if they can, and if they can't, then forget it.

"Trust you for now." Linglong thought for a moment, then smiled.

The situation that Xiao Hua stood in front of him just now, it is hard to imagine that it was a fake, a posturing.

Four knives were pointed at her, she didn't try to parry at all, she just rushed in front of Linglong - if any one of the knives stabbed her, she would be finished.It would be too much to say that this is a fake.

"It takes a long time to see people's hearts." Xiao Hua didn't care, and didn't argue anymore.

Linglong waved her hand and ordered the four men in black to retreat, and the maids who had fled in all directions also came back tremblingly, everyone's faces were stained with tears.

Like Xiao Hua, they didn't know beforehand.

Xiao Hua looked at these maids speechlessly, and asked slowly: "You are so patient, you have waited until now. You have come back from Qingquan Temple, this is a day."

Linglong smiled, "I tried it at the time, lest you be prepared. It has been a long time now, and you must have relaxed."

Xiao Hua's face was dark, and he didn't speak for a long time.

"Where are my brother and sister?" she asked dissatisfied.

Linglong smiled, "Of course I have already asked someone to stabilize them in advance, what's the point?"

Xiao Hua glanced at her, furious, and left like a gust of wind.

After a while, she came back like a gust of wind, looked Linglong up and down, "Your mother is not like your grandmother at all, but you are smart and intelligent, not inferior to your grandmother."

"I know." Linglong giggled.

Aunt Qiao Sirou was brought up by her grandmother for a few years, so she was very shrewd; her grandmother passed away shortly after her mother was born, and her grandfather took pity on her when she lost her mother when she was young, and raised her very delicately, so my mother is really unworldly, in her 30s , still naive.

Xiao Hua looked at Linglong for a long time, lowered his head sullenly and wanted to leave.

"Xiao Hua!" Linglong raised her voice and called her.

Xiao Hua turned around, with a cold face, "What else is there?"

Linglong smiled at Mimi, "It's nothing serious. I just want to let you know that if you obey my orders, you can stay at Yu's house; if you don't obey my orders, I will fire you and ask you to find another job." .”

Xiao Hua's angry little face flushed.After being angry for a while, he said bitterly: "What's the big deal, I'll just follow your orders!"

Angrily left.

"Does following my orders make you so uncomfortable?" Linglong made a face at her back.

The next day Qiao Sirou sent someone to pick up Linglong early.Linglong bid farewell to her grandmother, mother and others, got into the carriage, first went to Qiao's Lane, and then followed Qiao Sirou, Zheng's family, and Qiao Zhijun to Chongshanhou's Mansion.When a group of people arrived at the street, they were greeted by the woman in charge of the Xu family. When they reached the gate, the door was already opened. Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Chang brought Xu Chuanxing, Xu Chuanjie and their daughters-in-law Jin, Xu, Lin and others to welcome them. Come out, meet and say hello to each other, with a happy face.

"This is the treatment of a guest." Linglong couldn't help giggling.

Guests of sufficient status always come in and out through the gate.

A group of people walked along the wide Dayong Road, talking and laughing all the way.Chongshanhou's Mansion is located in Xishuiguan, surrounded by a piece of sea in the mansion, the scenery is pleasant, Linglong looks at the scenery while walking, envious.

Xu Xiaohe's wife, Mrs. Chang, was indeed as the rumors said, with a gentle appearance and a soft-spoken voice, she seemed to be a person with a good temper and a good temper.Although it was the first time she and Linglong met, they seemed to like each other very much and looked at Linglong with a smile, their eyes were very gentle.
