Linglong

Chapter 112

Uncle Yu has always had a gentle attitude and elegant and dignified demeanor, but now he is quite different from the past, his face is ashen, and his eyes are cold and cold, like a bottomless pool of water, which makes people feel chills.

King Zhou subconsciously stretched out his arms to protect Linglong.

As if Uncle Yu would hurt her.

Uncle Yu's complexion is getting worse.

The old general walked up behind Uncle Yu, seeing King Zhou's expression and actions, he couldn't help shaking his head secretly.Sanlang, this is Xiao Linglong's father in front of you. Not only do you face an enemy with a vigilant look on your face, you also protect his daughter like an old hen guarding its chicks... It's so unpopular.

Linglong bent down, poked out her small face from under King Zhou's sleeve, and smiled flatteringly at Uncle Yu.

Uncle Yu was originally full of anger, but when he saw Linglong smiling so cautiously, his heart ached, and he gently waved to Linglong, "Daughter, come to Dad."

"Yes, father." Linglong obediently agreed.

"Little Lingdang, don't go over there." Seeing that Linglong was about to leave, Zhou Wang stopped him, "He is angry and will definitely scold you."

"My father doesn't swear at people!" Linglong spoke clearly and crisply, nimbly and quickly, she slipped out from under his sleeve like a small fish, and ran to Uncle Yu's side.

"Father." She smiled obsequiously.

No matter how angry Uncle Yu was, he couldn't bear to blame his daughter, so he asked warmly, "Daughter, aren't you at He's house? How did you get here?" Linglong woke up like a dream, and patted her forehead, "Where's Anan? Where did Anan go? Dad, Uncle He's youngest son is named Anan, I... I took him out to play, and I don't know the way, so I got here somehow..." Looking around, I saw that Anan had long since disappeared. dumbfounded.

The old general and Uncle Yu coincidentally looked at King Zhou with reproachful eyes.

No need to ask, Linglong must have brought Anan out to play, and King Zhou stopped Linglong, so Anan disappeared.

Zhou Wang was stared at by his grandfather and Linglong's father with four lightning-like eyes, his face became a little unnatural, he cleared his throat, and said, "A'nan has a wet nurse, it's all right."

The old general smiled, "Sanlang has always been careful in his actions. Since he said nothing, then Anan must be playing carefree right now."

Uncle Yu frowned, "Daughter, since you are entrusted by others and loyal to others, since you have brought Anan out to play, you should not leave your side. Is Anan five years old this year? He is still a baby." Linglong nodded repeatedly , "Father, you are so right. Come on, let's go find Anan." He waved at the old general, "Old man, we have something to do, we have to go ahead and see you later." He took Uncle Yu's arm and urged, "Dad, I remember that Anan ran to the left, let's go down this path, and we should be able to find him soon."

Seeing that Linglong was leaving, King Zhou felt reluctant to part with her.

After finally meeting up, how long will it be before Little Bell will be taken away by her father?

"A'nan is really fine." He took two quick steps to stand in front of Linglong's father and daughter, peeking at Linglong shyly, "Really."

A palm-sized face, as bright and tender as petals, dressed in men's clothes, without makeup, made this small face even more pure and elegant.Little Bell, you are such a beautiful little girl.

"Master Chang." Uncle Yu ignored him, and looked at the old general calmly, "Yu has finished what he should say, but your grandson is still blocking the way, what's the reason?"

Facing the famous founding father, the queen's father, and the emperor's respected father-in-law, Uncle Yu turned out to be questioning.

Linglong stood obediently beside Uncle Yu, and was shocked to hear it.It is true that the Yu family is a hermit and has no interest in being an official, but this does not mean that the Yu family will oppose the imperial power and have trouble with members of the royal family. On the contrary, Linglong's great-grandfather was very humble in front of the late emperor when he was exiled to Beijing. He refuses to be an official, but he is used to the days of idle clouds and wild cranes, and he does not despise the imperial power - if he despises the imperial power, with the measure of the late emperor, how can he return unscathed? ——However, Uncle Yu is very rude to King Zhou and the old general now.

"Wang Xiaosan, get out of the way." Linglong mouthed something to King Zhou.

Don't make trouble, if you do this again, you will intensify the conflict, do you understand, just get out of here!

King Zhou frowned, "Mr. Yu, we met two years ago. Mr. Yu was gentle and modest back then, but not as cold and distant as today."

"At that time, Wang Sanlang was a guest of the Yu family, so he should be polite." As soon as he finished speaking, Uncle Yu said clearly: "But today, Wang Sanlang is already coveting the treasures of the Yu family, and he wants Yu to treat you kindly." Is it polite?"

"Mr. Yu, you—" King Zhou couldn't help but feel his face burn when Uncle Yu punctured his heart.

The old general came over slowly, and said: "Sanlang, Mr. Yu and Xiao Linglong have something to do, why don't you just block the way? Why don't you get out of the way quickly." King Zhou was in a panic, and he had no choice but to be reluctant after hearing what the old general said. stepped aside.

Uncle Yu took Linglong and left calmly.

King Zhou peeked at Linglong's back, and Linglong also looked back at him quietly. Their eyes met inadvertently, and they both smiled shyly.

The figures of Uncle Yu and Linglong were almost out of sight, and King Zhou was still watching obsessively.

"Grandfather, why is Mr. Yu so stubborn?" He couldn't figure it out.

The old general said: "It can't be said that Mr. Yu is stubborn. The Yu family really has no power. If Xiao Linglong marries you, it's fine if you treat her well. If not, how can Mr. Yu, as a father, reason? He is worried. It makes sense."

"Why should I treat Little Bell badly?" King Zhou was displeased.

The old general didn't think it was disobedient, and said with a smile: "A lifetime is so long, who can say for sure what will happen in the future? Little Sanzi, you really intend to marry me, so you should find a way to make Mr. Yu believe you. If he refuses to believe you, I won't rest assured to promise my daughter to you."

King Zhou was unhappy, "Grandfather, how many civil and military officials in the court want to marry my daughter to me, can you count them all?"

The old general Yile said, "Then, these people's daughters, are you willing?"

King Zhou shook his head hastily.

The old general smiled, "If you don't want it, it's no use no matter how many officials want you to be your son-in-law. Little Sanzi, don't be unwilling, try every means to make Mr. Yu trust you and love you, so that you can be a son-in-law." It's the right way."

King Zhou resentfully said, "Even if it's my father, I'm the only one who flatters him when I'm happy."

Thinking of being an imposing prince, not wanting to be seen by Xiao Lingdang's father, looking at his white eyes in the future, and trying to please him, it is quite depressing.

The old general was always very considerate of him, so he patted him on the shoulder kindly, "Little Sanzi, if you do something to flatter Mr. Yu, don't forget your father, just do as it is. Otherwise, if he finds out later, he will definitely not follow you."

King Zhou: ...

After a while, the King of Zhou asked modestly, "Grandfather, I sneaked back here on the pretext of hunting. My father won't be really angry, will he?"

The old general comforted him very understandingly, "Qi must be genuine, but his harsh words are just words, and they won't really break your legs."

King Zhou: ...

Linglong followed Uncle Yu through a place full of flowers and willows, and further ahead was a rockery and a stream. From a long distance, Anan's happy laughter could be heard.

As they got closer, I saw Anan running ahead with a smile, a wet nurse and two little girls chasing after him, the four of them were having fun.

Seeing Linglong, Anan was overjoyed, and ran towards her briskly.Linglong knelt down to catch him, and took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat off his forehead, "A'nan, are you enjoying yourself?" Anan grinned and said loudly, "Happy!" Linglong plays with him.

A child of this age seems to have endless energy, even when adults are exhausted, he is still full of energy. Seeing that the wet nurse and the two little girls are out of breath, Linglong smiled and nodded, "Okay." Anan, my sister will play with you."

Anan was lively and active, and ran to the nearby bridge first!There are railings on the bridge, but Anan is young and small in stature. He curiously leaned in through the gaps in the railings and looked down the bridge. He clapped his hands happily and laughed, "It's so fun!"

"Anan, be careful." Linglong was still under the bridge, she was startled when she saw him like this, and hurried to the bridge.

Before Linglong got there, Anan's small body had already fallen off the bridge!It was about to fall into the water!

The nurse screamed in surprise, and the two little girls even cried and shouted, terrified.

A snow-white light flashed, and when Anan was about to fall into the water, his small body rolled up!Linglong felt blurred in front of her eyes, Anan had been rescued, and standing beside her was a tall, white-skinned man, who was the swordsman next to Wang Xiaosan, Cheng Ying.

"Thank you." Linglong rushed over, thanked Chengying, hugged the stunned Anan and patted him softly, "Anan is good, Anan is not afraid, I am a sister, do you recognize my sister?" Anan pursed her mouth, " Sister!" Lying on Linglong's chest, she cried aggrievedly.

Cheng Ying silently bowed, stepped back quickly, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Uncle Yu was watching from a distance with his hands behind his back. When he saw that Anan was about to fall into the water, he hurried to this side, his face changed drastically.

"It's okay, Dad." Linglong hugged Anan and showed him, "Anan is fine, he is such a good boy, he only cried twice, I coaxed him, and he stopped crying."

Anan really gave Uncle Yu a big smile.

"Who was that person just now?" Uncle Yu asked, pointing in the direction Chengying was leaving after he was in shock.

Linglong was embarrassed, "Well, Dad, his name is Cheng Ying, he is the swordsman next to Wang Xiaosan, and he is very good at it..."

Uncle Yu's face was changing, sometimes surprised and sometimes angry, he didn't know what he was thinking.

The wet nurse and the two little girls had weak legs, and they were helping each other to walk towards the bridge, but they hadn't reached it yet.

Linglong took a look at them, and said in a low voice boldly: "Father, although Wang Xiaosan is hateful, but he really makes people look at Anan, so it's good for him, isn't it?"

Uncle Yu frowned and glanced at Linglong, there seemed to be dissatisfaction in his eyes.

Linglong twitched in her heart, and smiled flatteringly, "Father, my daughter listens to you, and she listens to you in everything."

Don't think that I have so much affection for Wang Xiaosan, I'm just... I'm just seeking the truth from facts...

Uncle Yu gritted his teeth, "This guy is really powerful, making it impossible to guard against. Daughter, from now on, dad will only..." Seeing his complexion, Linglong secretly groaned, and asked anxiously, "Father, are you going to lock me up in the future?" Are you at home?"

Wang Xiaosan is too powerful, you can only rest assured and be safe if you shut me up at home, is that so?
She was worried that Uncle Yu would really do this, and her face turned pale.

It's not good to be locked up at home all the time.

Uncle Yu was upset, "Will father be afraid of him to this extent? Lock up his precious daughter for him?"

Linglong was moved to tears, "Father, you are so kind."

I can't go online, what are you asking me to do at home?Of course, you have to come out for a walk from time to time.

Uncle Yu seemed to have made up his mind, "Daughter, what should you do? Anyway, when you go out, father and mother will always follow you."

"Yes." Linglong nodded submissively.

The nurse and the two little girls help me up and I help you up. The nurse reached out and hugged Anan, tears streaming down her face. Anan stretched out her little hand to wipe her tears sensiblely, and patted her like an adult , "Be good, don't cry." The nurse's tears became more and more violent.

A few people rested on the stone bench under the bridge for a while, and when the nurse stopped crying and the little girl's legs were no longer weak, Linglong and Uncle Yu took Anan one by one and went back to He's house.

Uncle Yu didn't allow Linglong to show up, and he, He Zongli and Xiang Shi told about Anan's adventures in detail. After hearing this, He Zongli was afraid, "There has never been such a thing before, and we didn't expect that the gap in front of the railing would be so wide. Get over it! This railing will definitely need to be repaired later, and the wet nurse and others who are following me will also have to explain it.” Xiang was even more worried, “The railing must be repaired, but the people who follow are even more important! In my opinion, Anan will go out in the future. , or I will follow you every step of the way.”

He Zongli said softly: "Anyway, our eldest girl is grown up and can help you manage the house. Anan is still young, so you should worry more."

Xiangshi nodded with tears in his eyes.

Uncle Yu apologized again and again, "The little girl played with Anan for a while, and Anan was frightened, and she felt ashamed." Both He Zongli and Xiang Shi objected, "What's the matter with Guan Linglong! We all know how fast Anan can run. , Your Excellency really can’t keep up with him.”

After being polite to each other, Uncle Yu said tactfully: "My wife is timid, so I didn't dare to let her know about this." He Zongli was a little surprised, and didn't know how to deal with it for a while, so Xiang Shi reacted quickly, and hurriedly said: "I shouldn't let Yu My wife knows." It was decided immediately.

Uncle Yu and Mrs. Qiao stayed at He's house until noon, and left after Yu Chang and Yu Yan finished their exams.

He Zongli and Xiangshi couldn't stay, so they kindly sent them to the door, saying goodbye.

After seeing Uncle Yu and Mrs. Qiao away, He Zongli discussed with his wife Xiang, "My lady, Yu Shishilang's family looks good everywhere, but does Shishilang love his wife too much? If our big girl has such a mother-in-law , will it be difficult to serve?" Xiang couldn't help laughing, "Sister, you are more careful than me, I haven't thought about it yet." He Zongli disapproved all over his face, "The big girl's lifelong event How can I be careless as a father?" Xiang Shi pursed her lips and smiled, "According to what father and mother said, I am indeed somewhat satisfied with the child of the Yu family. You have to take a closer look. Mr. Xiang, we too, just watch with cold eyes and talk about it later." He Zongli nodded in agreement.

Along the way, Mrs. Qiao also whispered to Uncle Yu, "The girl from the He family has a good birth and good manners. I talked to her for a long time, and I like her very much. Eleven Lang, let's make this marriage for Ziming. Okay?" Uncle Yu agreed softly, "A Tao, the eldest son and daughter-in-law should only like you. Now that you've found a match, I'll tell my parents when I get home that the central matchmaker will go propose marriage."

"I like the eldest son's daughter-in-law, but what about the son-in-law and son-in-law?" Qiao asked coquettishly.

Uncle Yu held her slender hands, the corners of his eyes and brows were tender, "You can only do it if you fall in love with me."

Qiao's smile.

Linglong didn't ride in the same car as her parents. She squeezed together with her two older brothers and spared no effort to make fun of Yu Chang, "Brother, do you think you can pass the exam? This exam is a big deal for Xishan Academy. If you don't pass the exam, hehe Hee, that would be miserable."

Yu Yan, a half-grown boy, was still ignorant, "Little sister, why would it be miserable if you fail the exam? Besides Xishan Academy, there are many places to study in this city."

Linglong winked at him, "But, there may not be Yan Ruyu in other academies..."

Yu Yan became even more confused, and asked repeatedly, "Little sister, what Yan Ruyu?" Linglong was about to answer, when Yu Chang blushed and took out a piece of malt candy and stuffed it into her mouth, "Little sister, eat candy." Linglong said bitterly "I stopped eating candy a long time ago. Brother, I'm not a child anymore..." Yu Chang patted her, "Hey, you're still young, eat candy, eat candy."

Yu Yan also took a piece of malt candy and ate it, with a confused look on his face.

Ten days later, Xishan Academy released the list and posted the list of twenty students admitted this time.

Uncle Yu ordered people to go up the mountain early and copied a copy back.

When the list was copied back, Yu's family members were very concerned and watched it together.

Both Yu Chang and Yu Yan are among them.

This kid Chang Na may have worked hard for a while, and he actually passed the exam.

Among the 20 people, there was another person known to the Yu family, Song Changlin from the Heqinghou Mansion.

The Yu family was looking at the admission list with relish, when the maid came to report, "Someone came to send a congratulatory gift."

Congratulations?Uncle Yu raised his head in doubt.

The maid accompanied her with a smile, "It is indeed a congratulatory gift. It is a congratulatory gift for the eldest and second young masters to be admitted to Xishan Academy."
