"Brother Lin, the eldest lady is here to see you."
Halfway up the hillside, a servant of the Xiao family was shouting from a distance.
Xiao Yuchan's face was full of sweat, and her eyes were still a little red. After seeing Lin Wanjie, she quickly wiped them away.
"Lin Da, how are you doing recently?"
Lin Wanjie stood on the slope, condescending, and there was no reply.
This made the eldest lady look a little embarrassed.
When the two servants accompanying them saw the roof trusses built by Lin Wanjie on the top of the mountain, they were a little surprised: "Brother Lin, are you serious, are you really going to live in seclusion in the mountains?"
Lin Wanjie was still silent.
"Shut up, everyone, I'll talk to Lin Da alone."
After the eldest lady said something to the two servants, they lowered their heads angrily and saw the little soil bag not far away. They placed the wild flowers prepared in advance in front of the tombstone.
Xiao Yuchan did the same, knelt down and kowtowed, her eyes were red.
"Sanniang, I feel relieved that you are gone. Little do you know that the Xiao family is in a difficult situation now. The Xiao family is in chaos. Dad is gone. How can I survive on my mother's side?"
As she spoke, Xiao Nizi looked at Lin Wanjie from the corner of her eyes to see how he would react.
However, Lin Wanjie showed no reaction at all, like a stone without emotion.
Xiao Yuchan continued: "The Xiao family has lost its backbone, and now anyone can bully us. Not only the side relatives, but also my mother's family members are coming to cause trouble and want to rob the Xiao family's remaining property..."
"Miss, stop acting."
Lin Wanjie appeared behind Xiao Yuchan and patted her shoulder.
"Acting?" A trace of panic appeared on Xiao Yuchan's face, and she quickly wiped her tears, "What did I act for?"
"I will not go down the mountain. I have made it very clear that the Xiao family has nothing to do with me. Not to mention that no one will come to harass the Xiao family. Even if someone does come to harass, there is no need to call me."
"you!"
Xiao Yuchan felt ashamed and angry. Who knew Lin Da was so smart?
He could see through his purpose at a glance.
But who knew that Lin Da was so heartless?
"call……"
Xiao Yuchan took a deep breath and secretly warned herself not to be offended by Lin Qi. This man clearly wanted to make her angry, so she couldn't fall into his trap.
"You have been in the mountains, how do you know what is going on in Hangzhou? The Xiao family is in chaos now. The second uncle and the third uncle often come to make trouble. The shop is unattended and there are many workers waiting for wages. In addition, my grandfather also sent people to harass …”
"I have just recovered from a serious illness in Hangzhou. The Xiao family is not the only one who is suffering. Every family is recovering. Xiao Laosan is dead, and Xiao Laoer's family must be too busy to take care of themselves. How can they have time to harass the Xiao family? As for the Wang family, it is even more impossible. , I heard that the eldest lady’s mother-in-law is in Yangzhou, why did she come to Hangzhou to cause trouble? As for the shop, with the eldest lady’s ability, she will definitely be able to stand up soon. "
Xiao Yuchan looked dejected, and her pretty face covered with sweat was filled with disappointment.
She thought about this reason for several days, but it had no effect at all, and was exposed by Lin Da in an instant.
"Now that we're all here, let's stay and eat something before leaving. I shot a wild boar and I still haven't eaten half of it."
Lin Wanjie was talking to himself, returned to the roof shelf, and took off half of the bacon.
In ancient times, mountain forests were rich in resources and all kinds of game were inexhaustible.
And with Lin Wanjie's muscular body, he was the perfect choice to be a hunter.
Two days ago, I took a piece of bamboo and killed the wild boar that tried to destroy the bamboo house in one glance.
"Miss, what should I do?"
The servant asked, Xiao Yuchan frowned.
Watching Lin Wanjie minding his own business, he lit a fire and started cooking. After throwing the whole piece of bacon into the pot and cooking it, he returned to Yu Jiaoer's grave.
For some reason, the eldest lady suddenly felt sour in her heart.
A man's deep affection can only be seen clearly after separation.
From the first time she saw Lin Da and Sanniang hooking up, Xiao Yuchan believed that they were a couple.
Unexpectedly, to this day, I would actually feel sorry for this man's affection, even a little...
jealousy.
"Come over and have something to eat."
Lin Wanjie greeted.
The two servants responded first, ran forward quickly, and each divided a piece of meat.
"Mmm, it's delicious."
"Brother Lin, why do you know everything?"
"Miss, come here and try it. Brother Lin's craftsmanship is really good."
Xiao Yuchan was a little emotional, and quickly stepped forward and asked solemnly: "Lin Da, let me ask you one last question, are you serious about not going back?"
Lin Wanjie handed over a piece of meat and shook his head.
"You don't even care about your own children?"
"..."
The scene fell silent for a moment.
The two servants, who were still chewing meat, were stunned when they heard this. They were so stiff that they couldn't even move their mouths.
As the only remaining servant of the Xiao family, everyone knows it.
The second wife's pregnancy has been made public. It is the last seed left by the master in the world and the hope of the Xiao family. At least it may be a boy.
But at that age, how could the master still allow the second lady to conceive a child?
Thinking of the unclear relationship between Lin Da and the three ladies in the past, the result is obvious.
It’s just that people don’t dare to say it, and they don’t want to say it.
It doesn't matter who the second wife's child is. What's important is that the Xiao family must have a heir. This is the Xiao family's reassurance.
This was something that everyone avoided talking about, but the eldest lady actually said it outright, and in front of Mr. Lin.
Fortunately, there were only a few people, and the two servants wouldn't talk about it even if they died.
"Well, Miss, let's go and take a look at the scenery."
The two servants left knowingly.
Lin Wanjie frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
"What good things have you done that you don't know about?"
Xiao Yuchan was a little angry and proudly raised her chest.
"What's going on?" Lin Wanjie stood up and emphasized his tone. Although he quickly thought of a possibility, he had to give a clear answer.
"Lin Da, how long has it been since you last seen Erniang?"
"..." Lin Wanjie took a deep breath and said slowly, "Second Madam, she...is pregnant with the master's child?"
"Daddy's?" Xiao Yuchan asked provocatively, "Can daddy be able to handle that kind of body? You can be so infatuated with Sanniang, how can you be so unfavorable to one? To your own child..."
"That's Mr. Xiao's child!" Lin Wanjie interrupted in a deep voice.
"Do you dare to do it or not admit it?"
Lin Wanjie looked at Yu Jiaoer's tombstone and walked over slowly.
"The Xiao family needs this child, then he is the child of the Xiao family. Now that I have this child, I should not appear in the Xiao family."
"Why?" Xiao Yuchan was puzzled, "For the sake of the child, why don't you go back?"
"It is for the sake of my children that I should not go back."
"You are just escaping. Our whole family is looking forward to you and waiting for you, but you abandoned all of us, even your own children, for a woman?"
The eldest lady's voice gradually trembled, tears forming in the corners of her eyes.
I thought that if the child was used as a threat, Lin Da would compromise anyway!
Unexpectedly, Lin Da was still like this. Why would such an affectionate man turn a blind eye to his own child?
Xiao Yuchan doesn't understand and can't bear it!
