The Landlord And His Wife - Chapter 178
Liu Lin turned around and took a few steps when he heard a door slam behind him, and then someone shouted, “Master, Master!”
He turned his head to look and saw that the wet nurse came out. When he came out, he looked back at the house, and then hurried over.
Liu Lin hurriedly asked: “What’s the matter, what else?”
The nanny ran to the front, wiped the corner of her eyes, and said, “Master, this old slave sees that the young master is also a kind-hearted person, and also has a fate with our miss. Can you help us?”
Liu Lin was stunned and nodded: “Of course! I will try my best to help you ladies!”
Come on, the eldest young master doesn’t care about anything in the study every day, the eldest young mistress… quarrels with the aunt in the eldest young master’s room all day long.”
Liu Lin nodded: “I probably know a little about this.”
The nanny continued: “The second young master made a big incident in the capital, and all the money in the family was wiped out. The young lady even sold a lot of ornaments at home! The servant also sold it. If you sell it, if you give it away, then it can be considered to settle the second young master’s affairs. There is not even a steward in the house, and the young lady came out to rent a shop, which is really impossible! Gossip, saying that the young lady is showing her face outside, and there is no more lady’s rules! Also, that the young lady is no longer a young lady, and our mansion is completely ruined, and it will never be able to stand up again!”
Liu Lin was stunned, how serious? Although the identities are different, the girl is most afraid of gossip, which he can think of. But what Liu Lin didn’t expect, there is actually him in this gossip!
“The shop is now the only property of the Hanlin Mansion. The lady attaches great importance to it, but there is really no way to do it. Without this shop, a family of more than a dozen people can’t even eat! But The lady went to the shop a few times, and some people said, Miss… The lady is shameless, but as a woman, she wanders outside all day long, casually contacting and teasing with men… I see a man following behind the lady all day long… In short , a lot of ugly words!”
Liu Lin was amazed! After a long time, he asked in surprise, “Could it be me?”
The nanny patted her legs and shouted, “Our lady never goes anywhere else! I used to go out by car, and only went to a few relatives’ houses, or offered incense to the Buddha, which is also very Don’t go out! And even if you are in the mansion, you avoid the men who come to the mansion as a guest. Do you think everyone is like you, and can talk to and meet with the lady casually, and the lady will help you to test for talents?!”
Liu Lin was stunned and annoyed: “Who said this? It’s too much! If you really don’t know, you need me to explain, I’ll go!”
The nanny said blindly, “It’s the eldest grandmother in the house who is gossiping…”
Liu Lin widened his eyes in astonishment, before stammering for a long time: “You mean the eldest young lady, is that Miss Song’s sister-in-law? This…” He shook his head, I really couldn’t understand these things, so I said: “If these words spread in the county, I can find out who spread it, and I will find a way…”
The nanny shook her head and said: “I can’t tell you about these house gates for a while. Whoever passed it on, you don’t care about it, and in places like Fengxian, people talk about house gates. The gossip about her can’t make any waves… What this old slave means is that the people who say these gossip about Miss don’t want these gossip to spread in Fengxian, even if people here know about it, Miss Yu is not too big. The relationship. This gossip is for others to hear… It’s a few big families that we communicate with, and now we all know… And even if it’s far away!”
Liu Lin didn’t speak, just looked at her, obviously she didn’t understand what she said, who was she referring to?
The nanny finally said: “Our young lady was originally scheduled to marry, the man’s family is from Songjiang Prefecture, the master is the secretary of the Songjiang government, and the future uncle is one of the Sansi Yamen. What is the official position? Originally we got married in August this year, but I didn’t expect that a letter came from there last year, saying that we were going to quit the marriage. In February of the new year, our future uncle’s cousin I came with a housekeeper, and I must leave the family! Our master had recovered from his illness, but he fell ill again because of anger…” Having said that, the nurse shook her head.
Liu Lin was astonished, and at the same time he almost understood everything. When he was with Miss Song in the past, some doubts occasionally arose, but at this time they were all resolved.
Miss Song passed out today, maybe she heard Songjiang Mansion? That…
Liu Lin asked: “Nanny, what do you want me to do? Don’t worry, as long as I can do it, I will definitely help!”
The nanny nodded and said hurriedly: “Thank you in advance!” She took out a handkerchief from her sleeve and handed it to Liu Lin: “This is what our girl wrote Yes, I don’t know how to write, and I don’t know what it was written, but this handkerchief was written by our girl after she knew that my uncle was going to retire. I think it must have been for my uncle! That’s why I want to invite you to Songjiang Mansion. If you do, you must find a way to find our uncle, give this handkerchief to our uncle, and then tell him that our young lady… is really wronged!”
Speaking of this, the nurse’s voice choked up: “At home like this, there is no way for the young lady to show her face… The matter of withdrawing from the relatives, the uncle has never shown or spoken, I suspect that the uncle doesn’t know at all …Especially Miss’s situation here. So, young master, please find your uncle and bring these words and a handkerchief to uncle!”
Liu Lin is naturally bound to, nodded and said: “Okay, I will do it! But what’s your uncle’s name?”
“My uncle’s surname is Meng, and his name is Meng Ke. My uncle’s father is Meng Yuanpin, who is the chief envoy of Songjiang Prefecture. Just remember this, young master.”
Liu Lin took the handkerchief and nodded again: “Okay! I will bring it!”
The nanny saw that he was so sure, she agreed, and then she was relieved, wiped the corners of her eyes and thanked him again and again, then said goodbye to him, and hurriedly turned around and went back.
Liu Lin held a handkerchief in his hand, and once again looked at the Hanlin Mansion, which was already hidden in the dim lights, and knew about Miss Song, and had a very strange feeling in his heart, This kind of feeling… Liu Lin himself couldn’t explain it clearly. Anyway, it was very uncomfortable, and his chest was very tight, as if it was blocked.
Liu Lin shook her head to get rid of the uncomfortable feeling, thinking in her heart, to help Miss find her fiancé, explaining the situation, if she can save Miss Song’s marriage, it is also a help She is out of the sea of misery!
Thinking like this, I turned around and went home.
When I got to my house, it was a completely different scene. The four uncles and four aunts wanted to eat here together, so the two shops were closed in the dark, and Liu Tao took the He Zhongzhou brothers three All of them were called. When Liu Lin entered the yard, he heard screams and laughter. The one who ran in the yard the most was Liu Sen, who was already a young talent!
, must be finished. Liu Xuer was standing beside him, smiling and spreading his hands, protecting him from falling.
“It’s still our home!” He smiled and ran into the house.
At this time, Shicheng and Willow came out of their yard, and when they saw him, they called out, “Liu Lin! Where have you been?! We are leaving tomorrow, why are you missing? I want to discuss how to go on the road!”
The willow tree also nodded: “Yes, with a lot of money, you should be careful, Shicheng said that you need to calculate the time on the road, and let’s talk about where you live every day, come over and let’s discuss it. .”
Liu Lin exhaled again, and temporarily put down Miss Song’s affairs, and he still has a lot of things on his side! He ran over with a smile: “Yeah! I also thought it was best to discuss it!”
The few of them went to the courtyard to discuss. After a while, the smell of the food filled the courtyard.
Shicheng just left, he said, he will drive their horses and carriages over tomorrow morning, let’s go!
Liu Lin saw that the silver box was ready, everything was ready, and he returned to his room. When washing, I remembered the handkerchief in my arms, so I took it out and looked at it.
all over her handwriting.
Just the words written on it, Liu Lin was really stunned when he saw it.
It only reads: yarn, green tea, jasmine. Next to it were two very small words, Song Yao.
What does this mean? Liu Lin was inexplicable, looking over and over again, it was these words. Bring this to Miss Song’s fiance? Are you sure the nanny did not make a mistake?
Liu Lin studied for a long time in wonder, Song Yao is obviously Miss Song’s boudoir name, as for the other ones… It doesn’t seem like it’s a love thing, according to Liu Lin’s idea , it’s like a purchase list or something…
Liu Lin was a little embarrassed, scratched his head and carefully folded the handkerchief, and wrapped it again with his own handkerchief, so as not to lose it on the way… No matter what it means, it is probably their fiancée If you can understand it, send it!
He couldn’t figure it out anyway.
