Chapter 178 Old lady
"what?"
Since Lin Qishuwu became weak, she no longer cares about the etiquette of a noble lady. Her eyes widened in shock, her mouth opened and closed, and she could not express a complete sentence.
"My brother? He... takes a girl?"
Lin Qishu was really pleasantly surprised. His brother was known as the number one person in Shengjing who was not flirtatious with women. It was not reported that he was a womanizer because his family was powerful enough. Otherwise, his brother would definitely have a place in the rumors in the capital.
His courtyard was full of young men, and the people in the back room were all elderly ladies. When the gentleman from the capital was drinking and having fun with prostitutes, he was reading books about sages in his room. When his second brother invited the girl to go sightseeing, he was dealing with... The general affairs of the clan.
To say that he was not a womanizer was an understatement. His life was so miserable that even her sister felt anxious when she saw him.
Not to mention the mother and father.
Biyu leaned down and whispered in her ear: "The old lady has already passed with his wife. Do you want to take a look?"
Lin Qishu glanced at her playfully: "You are quite well informed."
Lin Qishu walked out in a fragrant sweat before arriving at Lin Qingping's yard.
The courtyard that used to be deserted was now crowded with people. Old Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Lin's maids and servants were all waiting in the courtyard.
"Shu'er pays homage to grandma, and pays homage to mother~" After Lin Qishu finished her salute, she blinked at Old Mrs. Lin, and the delicate-looking Old Mrs. Lin spoke directly to her heart.
She sat neatly next to Mrs. Lin and asked curiously: "Has grandma seen that little lady?"
Mrs. Lin had white hair and was leaning on a carved faucet inlaid with gems. She was in good spirits. She smiled and pinched Lin Qishu's face: "You naughty girl, I just want to see your brother." fun."
Lin Qishu didn't hide away, with a smile on her face as she accepted the gentle squeeze.
The old lady glanced outside: "It's half tea time, and your brother and the young lady haven't shown up yet. She's probably a young lady from a commoner's family, and she doesn't have any rules."
Lin Qishu placed the old lady's back piece on her knee and patted her gently, then said comfortingly: "Isn't it normal for this little lady to be a little reserved when she first enters the Lin Mansion?"
The old lady didn't buy it: "That daughter of the Xie family, didn't she come to see me when she first entered the mansion? Why didn't she become angry when I saw her stage fright? She is still a member of the Xie family."
Lin Qishu silently cursed in her heart: "Sister Yue didn't meet the elders in the family until she entered the house for the first time."
She could only think about this in her heart, while she was still trying to justify the little lady her brother had brought back: "She just returned home yesterday, so she might have woken up late because of the long journey, and besides, she had to see her family. The most noble old lady, you are not allowed to look at the mirror with yellow decals~"
The old lady felt a little more comfortable after being coaxed by her, so she started chatting with her about household matters.
Mrs. Lin was very jealous of this mother-in-law. She just listened quietly and did not dare to interrupt decisively.
Because Lin Qishu is the only girl in the direct branch of the Lin family, the old lady has taken her to her courtyard to raise her since she was a child. Even though she is talking and laughing with her daughter, she looks like a kind elder. appearance. In fact, there are only a handful of people in the entire Lin family who can be favored by her. In her room, even the head of the family and the imperial censor of the dynasty can't find a favor in front of her. If she says anything wrong, it will be a disaster. That's right.
She gave birth to two sons in succession, and finally gave birth to a delicate daughter. As soon as she was just out of confinement, her mother-in-law came to take her away. She was not without complaints, but she hadn't expressed her complaints yet. I was blocked by my mother-in-law: "I will give it to you as a gift from the house, and Xiao Shu'er will be raised by me."
What else could she blame? She could only blame so many sisters-in-law for not being able to give birth to a daughter, so her daughter had to suffer this fate for nothing.
"What are you thinking about? The soul of the broad day has flown away?" The old lady knocked the dragon-headed crutch and asked in a bad tone.
Only then did Mrs. Lin come to her senses and immediately replied with a low eyebrow: "Mother, do you have any instructions?"
"Go and see your good son, why haven't you come yet? Do you want me, an old woman, to die in this courtyard?" The old lady mocked with a hint of disgust on her face.
The old lady originally liked her as the eldest grandson of her eldest son. She was a talented person and could write excellent articles and policies. However, he was unwilling to get married. It had been four or five years since he was crowned.
Her eldest daughter-in-law has not yet held her great-grandson in her arms. She has talked too much, and now she has no good feelings toward Lin Qingping.
Lin Qishu has grown up in this dilemma since she was a child. She naturally knows how to smooth things over. Acting like a little girl, she shook the old lady's leg and said coquettishly: " My granddaughter wants to see for herself what kind of medicine my brother sells in the gourd~"
She smoothed her broken hair on her temples and murmured: "I also want to see how pretty that little lady is going to dress up. Hmm~ Is it possible that she is more beautiful than me?"
The old lady rolled her eyes at Mrs. Lin, who was sitting there like a stone sculpture, and snorted coldly: "Mother Gui, go and hold an umbrella for the girl."
Lin Qishu scampered towards her brother's house. Only then did she reach the corner. Among the leafy green plants climbing the wall, she saw a beautiful woman in white leaning on her brother's chest and whispering. What are you talking about.
She interrupted the ambiguous scene with a dry cough.
The woman withdrew from Lin Qingping's arms like a frightened little rabbit. From so far away, Lin Qishu could see her sobbing into her handkerchief.
Lin Qishu subconsciously disliked this woman. She would not be a girl from an aristocratic family because of her behavior. It was more than that. But if a woman with general knowledge knows that there are elders waiting in the hall, she should go quickly and generously. Instead of chatting with Lang Jun in this semi-hidden place.
When Lin Qingping saw that the visitor was his sister, a smile broke out on his expressionless face: "The sun is scorching outside, why did you find her here?"
"Grandma is waiting impatiently. Let me look for you." Lin Qishu's eyes fell on the woman in white. She kept her head lowered and couldn't see her face clearly, but it was still easy to tell from her fair skin that she was a beauty.
Lin Qingping stretched out his hand to block the sun for her, and said in a distressed tone: "I asked the servants to take out all the gifts for you, so you are a little late. You hurry to the main hall."
Only then did Lin Qishu notice that there was a long line of servants carrying trays behind his eldest brother.
She was so happy that she immediately forgot about the matter of the woman in white. She took her elder brother's arm affectionately and walked towards the main hall: "I know that brother must keep his word and bring me novelty things." I will definitely do it.”
Lin Qingping's smile grew wider when he saw her acting coquettishly.
