He didn't want the other person's eyes to pass over him, as if he didn't recognize him.
He was slightly stunned and even more uncomfortable.
Lin Xi held the cloak with one hand: "Since this is my parents' former yard, I will probably live here in the future."
When everyone heard what she said, they immediately understood the identity of the other party.
It turns out that this is the fourth-fang lady who was found after living outside for many years.
Rumor has it that she behaves poorly and doesn't know etiquette. Yesterday the old lady sent someone to invite her but they didn't come...
When I saw it today, it was not as vulgar as I imagined.
The hem of her skirt was almost untouched when she came over just now, and her head was only slightly swaying when she stepped forward. If nothing else, at least she looked good.
Although Lin Xi looks thin, she is broad and her core strength is stable, so she naturally walks very steadily.
With the etiquette of those aristocratic families, it can be regarded as reaching the same goal through different paths.
Lin Ziliang heard this sentence as soon as he arrived and was a little angry.
"This place is too remote. I will arrange another yard for you."
Originally, he wanted to talk to Lin Xi privately, but he didn't have time to speak yet.
Lin Xi knowingly asked: "Why can't I live here?"
Mrs. Lin, who was standing next to Su Yangyang, was afraid that she would cause trouble, so she hurriedly said, "Yangyang lives here now, and it's too remote and inconvenient."
The others looked at each other. Is this girl going to rob someone's yard as soon as she comes?
It's a bit indifferent.
Xiao Xian sneered: "Yangyang has lived here for ten years. Where did you come from? Why should I give it to you?"
Lin Xi silently made a note in his mind. This man with handsome features and a certain evil aura must be her senior brother who often accompanies the heroine in the book.
Xiao Xian was born cold, ruthless, mean and cruel, but he only fell in love with his junior sister.
Except for Su Yangyang, treat no one as a human being.
Later, the poison blinded her, the female supporting character, and took Lin Yan away to become a medicine man.
The so-called wrong thing they did, well, was to make his beloved junior sister cry...
Su Yangyang's voice was bright, with a bit of a smile: "I can give you this yard, but I'm a little reluctant to part with the peach trees I've been watching for many years."
Lin Xi looked at the peach tree.
"This tree is said to have been specially planted by my father on my first birthday."
The yard of the concubine of the Lin Mansion was originally remote and desolate. Later, after her parents got married, they renovated the house, paved it with cobblestones, and rearranged the layout.
Only then did we have the bright and spacious courtyard we have now.
The remoteness that everyone used to despise has become the elegance that everyone praises.
Xiao Xian sneered: "Your parents just planted this tree. Yangyang grew up under this tree. In spring, she used peach blossoms to make wine, in summer, she picked peach gum for medicine, in autumn, she made preserved fruits, and in winter, she enjoyed dead branches!"
Others agreed.
"The peach blossom wine made by Miss Su tastes very good."
"It's just a yard, why bother."
"Since Miss Su is used to living there, it's not easy to force her to change places."
"It's just a peach tree!"
Although Su Yangyang is a cousin, she has been raised in the Lin Mansion since she was a child, and she is very popular with the old lady.
The other one is from the lineage of the concubine who has been living abroad for many years and has no blood relationship with the old lady.
It's not difficult to tell which one is more serious.
Lin Yan hesitated for a long time, but still felt uneasy and followed.
He didn't care that he was having a cold war with Lin Xi.
As soon as Lin Yan walked in, he was pulled to his side by Mrs. Lin.
Mrs. Lin asked pointedly: "Is it okay for your cousin to live in this courtyard? After all, she has been living there before."
Compared with the daughter who just came back, the son Lin Yan's words naturally have a different weight.
As long as he nods, this matter will become Lin Xi's unreasonable trouble.
"My parents renovated this place during their lifetime. If my sister wants this yard, she can only live in it. Neither she nor I will live in it, so it's someone else's turn."
Mrs. Lin was a little surprised. After all, Lin Yan had never cared about this.
Besides, he should not be close to his sister who was just found, and should not speak for her.
She looked disapproving: "Yangyang is usually nice to you, but you can't make people feel cold."
Lin Yan was unmoved: "These are two different things."
Lin Xi found it a little funny.
The female protagonist in the book initially expressed her desire to live in her parents' former residence.
Then she was despised by a group of people, who repeatedly asked her what her intentions were, and was ridiculed for not knowing her own abilities and not knowing etiquette.
It seemed like a heinous crime, but she just wanted to live back in the courtyard where her family lived before she was lost.
Lin Xi took out the dagger from his waist and walked straight to the peach tree.
She picked a beautiful branch and cut it off neatly with her knife.
Xiao Xian frowned: "What exactly do you want to do? Are you deliberately looking for trouble?"
Lin Xi: "I want to take this branch back and graft it as a souvenir."
A tree this tall cannot be taken away, nor can it survive transplantation.
The yard was nice, but she didn't want to live in the Lin family and make it unhappy.
Su Yangyang was stunned for a moment, then regained her composure and tried to persuade him: "My senior brother speaks uprightly. Don't take it to heart. He didn't mean it."
Xiao Xian looked disapproving and distressed: "Yangyang, you just have a good temper."
Lin Xi said nothing, looking down at the peach branch in his hand.
Everyone was a little surprised. This girl looked timid and weak, but she also had a quiet vitality inexplicably.
She stood under the peach tree, holding the branch in one hand, just like Guanyin holding a willow branch.
The whole face was glowing with gleaming light.
But what he said didn't sound very nice.
"Shan Wu, go chop down this tree."
As soon as Lin Xi finished her words, the person behind her had already moved.
The sword came out of its sheath and was as powerful as breaking a bamboo. The tree was cut off and began to sway tremblingly.
Shan Wu was afraid that if he acted too late, his eldest daughter would take action herself!
And this is really irritating.
Everyone in the courtyard exclaimed and took a step back.
"Why?"
"It's crazy how beautiful this tree is."
"This is really choppy!"
Lin Xi has always known that showing strength may not necessarily mean you are strong, and showing weakness may not mean you are weak.
The more powerful you are, the better you live, but if people know you are powerful, you may die faster.
But not for these people.
Look, even though she is Miss Lin, neither the maid nor anyone else has any respect for her.
Su Yangyang looked at her in disbelief: "If you feel aggrieved, I can compensate you for a yard, so why do you do this?"
Lin Xiyan: "Why bother? Because I like it."
Just now I said "It's just a peach tree", now it's "This is a tree"!
In the book, this tree was later chopped down by Zhong Xiao because he was dissatisfied that Su Yangyang and his male partner chatted under the tree all night.
When they fall in love, they not only sacrifice the people around them to heaven. Trees are not immune either.
It would be better for her to do it herself. After all, it was the tree her parents planted for her.
Shen Lingwei is a princess who is loved by the emperor. She didn't expect someone to be so presumptuous in front of her.
Thinking that this was Liang Jing'an's niece, she didn't say anything.
She knew that the emperor's brother relied heavily on Liang Jing'an, so there was no need to offend him.
Zhongxiao also didn't expect Lin Xi to be so domineering and unreasonable, as if he was a completely different person than before.
Everyone was shocked. Normally, even if they had conflicts in private, they would still have to pretend to be indifferent and gentlemen.
This girl... really doesn't care.
The peach tree, which was more than 10 inches in diameter and about 3 feet high, slowly fell forward.
Land in the capital is expensive, and this street is even more expensive. The houses are densely built.
The tree crushed the yard wall and brought down a section of the neighbor's yard wall.
Lu Yan was sleeping in the sun and listened to a few words about the excitement on the other side of the wall.
The two walls were crushed, and everyone in the yard looked at the gap in the wall.
There is a person on the lounge chair in the corridor, and his posture is indescribably romantic.
In full view of everyone, he raised his hand and took away the cloth covering his eyes.
He has sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, a high bridge of nose, and his hair is a little messy, but it adds a bit of unruliness.
