Lin's courtyard.
The winter fog is thick, the willow trees are covered with silver bars, and the lawn is filled with silver makeup.
There is a thick layer of white frost on the needles of the pine trees, like a tree of pure white autumn chrysanthemums. The breeze blew, and the yellow leaves fluttered and fell.
The maid Xue Yan, who was waiting on her young lady, seemed unable to bear to step on the white snowflakes with her little feet.
Creak, creak, creak~
The girl's little face was a little red and itchy from the cold. She didn't understand why her young lady was cooking fish outside in such a cold weather.
However, Xue Yan's young body still stuck close to the back of the little yellow cat that he hated most, intentionally or unintentionally. The place seemed to be radiating as warm and blazing as the sun all the time.
Lin Daiyu picked up a glass of rice wine and stared at the dying trees in the yard. The withered leaves fell one by one to the roots of the trees.
After finishing the glass, the girl suddenly remembered the scene when she first met Lele in Yangzhou.
It seemed like a ray of light saved her from a dark, cold, and hopeless world.
The light at that time was so hot and bright, but when I actually came into contact with it, I discovered that the light was actually yellow!
After thousands of years, will I still have Lele by my side? Will I be so carefree?
A thousand years, what a long time it must be.
"Miss Lin, Miss Lin, it's not good!" A maid rushed in from the yard, the old lady's personal maid Yuanyang.
Waiting for the maid to come in, she took a few breaths and said, "Miss Lin, the eldest man and his wife fell into the water together and are unconscious. The old lady asked you to go to Jia's house quickly. Maybe you can see the eldest man one last time."
Lin Daiyu was startled, then silently picked up the wine glass: "Okay, I'll be there in a minute."
Yuanyang was a little surprised as to why Miss Lin was so calm now that her uncle was gone. Is it because you are so sad that you have forgotten to cry?
"Okay, Miss Lin, hurry up. I'll notify the other clan members!" With that said, Yuanyang ran away quickly.
"Why!"
With a deep sigh, Lin Daiyu stood up and looked at the bare trees in the courtyard again.
"Xueyan, do you think Ye Ye's life is just to return to his roots?"
Snow Goose was a little lost in the lake.
My uncle is in a coma, what does it have to do with Guigen? Could it be that the ancestor missed him and took him away?
"Haha~" Seeing Xue Yan's distressed look, Lin Daiyu smiled slightly and turned around.
The girl took the little yellow cat, who had finished eating and was sleeping soundly on the table, into her arms and slowly walked out the door.
Sometimes Lin Daiyu really envies Lele, who has no sadness and just eats, drinks and has fun all day long, and can just find a place to sleep if she wants to sleep.
Perhaps only this kind of heartlessness, simplicity, and thoughtlessness are the most suitable for his long and immortal life.
Is immortality really good for short-lived creatures like them who only have a lifespan of a hundred years?
…
At the side door of Jia's Mansion, doctors are constantly coming and going.
Jia Zheng was not at home, Jia Zhen was unconscious, Jia She suddenly collapsed again, and now there was no man in the huge Jia family to take charge of the overall situation.
Although Mrs. Jia had always looked down upon her eldest son, she suddenly panicked when she saw that he was suddenly as unconscious as Jia Zhen. I don't know what to do at all.
As for the remaining men in the house, Jia Lian, Jia Baoyu and others just stood there and kept asking the servants to call the doctor. If the doctor provided a prescription, they would look at Jia Mu and let the old lady make up her mind.
】
Opinion? They don't.
Finally, the youngest Jia Lan stood up and sat in the middle hall as a first-class general, giving orders one by one.
"First: Let Wang Xifeng go to the palace to find Concubine Yuanchun, and then ask the imperial doctor to come for consultation.
Second: Send people to inform each branch clan and related relatives, as well as the personnel specifically responsible for funeral arrangements. Make preparations for the table, etc., so that if there is an accident, you will not be in a hurry.
Third: The servants and guards at home perform their respective duties. There is no need to rush around and move around randomly to prevent anyone from fishing in troubled waters. ......."
Jia Baoyu stood at the door and looked at Jia Lan. This junior who once humbled himself, respected me so much, and even asked for advice. At this time, he was handling all matters in the house in an orderly manner, and the servants and maids also treated him with respect.
For some reason, he suddenly felt that he was inferior to him.
Turning around, I saw Brother Jia Lian wandering around blankly, and suddenly I figured it out again. What Jialan did is actually written in the book. If he is allowed to do it, that’s fine too!
The servants and maids are so respectful, but they are not the master of Jia Lanrongguo Mansion, a first-class general? He can fuck him too!
"It's not good, it's not good, Mr. Bao, there's someone outside the door asking Sun Shaozu to come and make trouble!" Yuanyang came over and grabbed Baoyu's hand and shouted.
When Jia Baoyu heard this, he immediately puffed up his chest and walked outside.
As long as you give him a chance to show off, he will not be weaker than others.
Look at him today, the light is born from the dust, shining through thousands of mountains and rivers!
Outside the door, the tall, strong and fierce Sun Shaozu stood at the door and shouted loudly.
"Ah, what do you mean by Jia's family? I've already paid the betrothal gift, and Yingchun is a member of my Sun family. Now that old guy Jia She is dying, I'm here to pick up my wife, why are you stopping me?
Does it still make sense? Is there any royal law? "
The more Sun Shaozu thought about it, the angrier he became. The Sun family relied on the Jia family to make their fortune before, and they came to Kyoto from the north not long ago. I didn't know it at the time, but the dignified general Jia She asked him to borrow money, so he was naturally very happy.
This relationship is about comings and goings.
If I borrowed his money today, wouldn't I have the opportunity to help him find a good official position in the future? Unexpectedly, Jia She's appetite grew bigger and bigger, and he had even borrowed a total of five thousand taels of silver.
Five thousand taels, how much is this? Generally, a family with fertile fields may only earn a total of twenty taels of silver a year.
When it comes to looking for him to do things, Jia She always talks about him, always saying that he wants to find a suitable opportunity, or that there is no shortage of people for the time being.
Later, he also said that he would not return the five thousand taels at all, and let the two families get closer and marry their daughter to him.
Sun Shaozu naturally agreed happily.
Jia Mansion, the leader of the generals, isn't this someone who has reached a high level? Delightful!
As a result, until now, he relied on his family's connections to command the imperial army.
When I arrived at his position, I inquired about it and found out that Jia She, the first-class general, was actually from Zhihu, with both fame and power.
Damn it, I was cheated!
Even now, if Jia She falls, his debts will be wiped out after his death, his money will be gone, and he might lose his wife. How can he bear this?
Draft it? Pay back the money!
"Where did this madman come from? You are barking in Jia's house. Be careful, I will pick you up!" Jia Baoyu shouted angrily when he came out.
Sun Shaozu: "Who are you talking about, little bastard?"
"You little bastard said you..." Baoyu's smile faltered, realizing that he had been deceived.
"Hahaha~" Sun Shaozu and the brothers he brought burst out laughing.
"You!" Baoyu raised his finger and pointed at Sun Shaozu, glaring angrily.
She has been pampered since she was a child. Except for her father who scolded her like this, no one would dare to say such things about him.
"Hmph~" Sun Shaozu coldly snorted and stood directly in front of Jia Baoyu, looking down.
"Is there no one in Jia's house anymore? Why let a little brat come out and talk?"
Looking up, Jia Baoyu felt timid when he saw Sun Shaozu's ferocious figure, which was half the size of him whether viewed horizontally or vertically.
It's so big and so ruthless. If a fight really breaks out, you'll be ruined, right?
"Baoyu, are you okay?" Yingchun rushed out after hearing the news and stood behind Baoyu and shouted timidly.
Jia Baoyu was startled: "Sister Yingchun, leave quickly, this madman wants to come to the house to cause trouble!"
"Yingchun?" Upon hearing the name, Sun Shaozu looked at the little girl up and down, and his eyes lit up.
The beautiful and smooth lines are a fun thing! Coupled with the name of Miss Jia's family, he can play for three years!
Sun Shaozu stepped forward and grabbed Jia Yingchun's arm: "Your father owed me five thousand taels of silver and lost you to me. It just so happens that I will come home with you today to pay off the debt!"
"Ah, no, help!" Yingchun suddenly panicked.
"You are so outrageous that you dare to rob a famous woman in broad daylight. Do you still have the law?" Jia Baoyu's pretty face turned red, she grabbed Sun Shaozu's arm and shouted.
"Wang's law? The father's debt and the daughter's debt must be repaid. It is a matter of course! This is a matter between me and Miss Yingchun. You kid, get out of here!" With that, Sun Shaozu waved Jia Baoyu aside with his big hand.
Jia Baoyu couldn't resist, so he took three steps back, and finally fell to the ground. Finally he couldn't bear it anymore and burst into tears.
"Wow~"
Hearing the young man in brocade clothes crying, Sun Shaozu was very disdainful and said directly: "Bah! A grown man dresses like a girl and is still flirting with me. If word spreads, will I still have the face?"
As he spoke, he spat in front of Jia Baoyu.
Jia Baoyu was furious and clenched his little fists. Ever since he was a child, no one had ever dared to insult him like this!
"Follow me!" Sun Shaozu squeezed Yingchun's arm and prepared to go back.
The skinny camel, which was bigger than the horse, was causing trouble at the gate of the prince. Although no one had come to care about him until now, he still felt something was wrong.
Why did he come over after being provoked by his subordinates?
Yingchun was so frightened that his face turned pale. He was no longer the same as he had been in the past, and his whole body sank to the ground, dragging him back desperately.
If I were taken to this gangster's house today, I wouldn't be able to tell anyone clearly from now on. If it's not shit, it's just shit.
"Pah~" Seeing that it would be troublesome to drag him down, Sun Shaozu just slapped him.
"Your father gave me five thousand silver and sold you to me at a discount. If you don't obey me again, I will take you back, beat you up, and throw you to sleep in the lower room."
When your grandfather was here that day, he wanted to get rich and rich from us and rushed to get it. Logically speaking, your father and I are of the same generation, but now your father has forced my head and betrayed me.
I shouldn't have become a relative of this family, so that it looks like I'm being snobbish and trying to climb into your family's wealth. "
With Sun Shaozu's size, Yingchun was completely stunned by the slap, and he didn't even realize he was being dragged.
Jia Baoyu, who was leaning against the corner, clenched his fists tighter, wanting to get up and fight with this man. But for some reason, I seemed to have no strength left in my body and I couldn't get up.
"Ah!" He yelled with red eyes, but Mr. Bao hadn't gotten up yet.
Sun Shaozu was startled, and he stepped forward and kicked him: "Madeh, what's your name? You scared me!"
There were several servants watching at the side door, but looking at the tall military masters behind Sun Shaozu and carrying swords, they didn't dare to move.
Ever since Wang Xifeng led his men to repair the servants one by one, they, the servants, could only earn five taels of silver a month at most. Why would they fight for such a small amount of money for their masters and gentlemen?
Besides, these gangsters all carry knives and according to law they cannot stop them.
However, everyone acted in the professional spirit of being servants. The servants all cried and shouted at the door, and some even hurried into the house to ask Master Jialan or the old lady to come out and make the decision.
The prince's family must not be insulted!
"Let's go!" Sun Shaozu dragged Yingchun away after kicking the girly boy.
Such a beautiful little girl looks like a young lady at first glance. She must have a good time tonight. This is a woman worth five thousand taels! He wanted to take a closer look to see if such a girl was adorned with gold and jade.
Not far out, Sun Shaozu clasped his fists at the few guards who were following him: "Thank you brothers for your compliments today. In the future, we will invite you brothers to Zhaixinglou for a drink."
"Okay, Commander Sun is upright!"
Sun Shaozu's dark old face was full of smiles. They were all Qiu Ba. It was too easy to subdue these subordinates. With money, alcohol, meat, and women, you could hit them wherever you asked.
After dragging Yingchun for two more steps, Sun Shaozu paused when suddenly two girls blocked the road in front of him.
A man in red robes and brocade clothes, with bright eyes and white teeth, was holding a little yellow cat. A maid was dressed as a maid, half a step behind, but the two little girls didn't even retreat in the face of this seven-foot-old man.
He happened to have a bad temper at this time and was about to curse.
"Meet County Lord Lin."
"Bloody hands...meet County Lord Lin!"
Sun Shaozu was stunned for a moment, then turned around, and then he realized that among the few men who had shown off their power with him before, including the dignified Imperial Guards of Kyoto, some of them bowed deeply, and some knelt down directly on one knee. After careful observation, some of them were Some even had their legs and feet trembling.
What's going on? I'm the boss and I haven't fallen yet. Why did you get scared first?
"You are Sun Shaozu, and the engagement has not yet been concluded. Why do you kidnap my sister Yingchun?" Lin Daiyu said calmly.
Sun Shaozu raised his head and met the girl's eyes. He couldn't even spit out the curses in his mouth.
Although he was much taller and more powerful than the girl, for some reason, he seemed to be a little shorter, which even reminded him of the mountain-like Buddha statue he faced when he went to the temple.
The mountains stand tall.
After hesitating for a while, Sun Shaozu stiffened his neck and said weakly: "It is a matter of course that a father's debt should be repaid by his daughter. Under the feet of the Emperor, do you still want to use your power to bully others, use the big to bully the small? You can't do it unless you follow the king's laws!"
As soon as the words fell, a figure rushed out from behind the girl, who was the security guard responsible for the Lin Mansion.
Seeing Guard Zhan, Sun Shaozu was shocked: "Commander Zhan, why are you here?"
Commander Zhan snorted coldly, stepped forward and slapped him.
"Snapped!"
"Why am I here? Do I need to report to you when I go there?
Wangfa? What kind of status do you have, are you qualified to discuss the law of kingship with me?
Brothers, give him a good fix! "
Hearing this, the few guards who had been calling Sun Shaozu brothers just now stood up quickly. However, for the sake of brotherly love, everyone hesitated for a whole breath before punching and kicking each other harder than the other.
"Commander, I'm here, don't be tired!"
"Commander, look at this move of mine. With one punch, there is no wound at all."
…
Sun Shaozu, who was knocked to the ground in a few strokes, subconsciously protected his head, his eyes filled with confusion.
We were all members of the Imperial Guard, so why did we come to beat him instead?
Besides, he was still being reasonable.
It turns out that being beaten hurts so much!
Woohoo, he's being reasonable! These people bully honest people.
Yingchun hurriedly ran to Sister Lin's side. She was in shock, but there was a strange look in her eyes.
In the future, I will be like Sister Lin and be a master!
…
