Rebirth of the Lin family's wife

Chapter 28

Second Mrs. Lin wept and took Butler Lin to the main room.

After listening to Butler Lin's words, Yan's face sank like water.

The second Mrs. Lin was very disturbed, but she didn't have the face to go to Hui's house by herself, so she sent her confidants to Hui's house to deliver things over and over again;

The Second Mrs. Lin couldn't bear it anymore, so she sent Butler Lin to Hui's house, nominally to ask about the details of the wedding, but actually wanted to test Hui's family's attitude towards this marriage.

The housekeeper came back after being ridiculed, and reported the truth to Mrs. Lin:
——Hui Si has a strong temper, when he heard that Butler Lin came to discuss the marriage, he immediately cursed!Instead, Hui Da came forward and sang a red face as a good person to mediate a few words, only saying that Miss Hui was frightened and bedridden on the day of Hui's mother's birthday, and Hui's mother was also so angry that she was sick in bed now... The matter of marriage will be discussed later.

"Mother! Look, the Hui family is trying to renege on their debts," the second wife Lin cried, "I really don't have the life to be a mother-in-law! Two good-looking sons, one was lured around by a woman of unknown origin , one of them was ruined by an actor again and again... Mother! You have to make the decision for me..."

Yan Shi was upset by her crying and scolded, "Shut up!"

The Second Mrs. Lin was taken aback, sobbing so hard that she didn't dare to cry anymore.

Yan was in a daze for a while, and said lightly, "Housekeeper, send someone to Hangzhou...bring uncle, Bai, and the children back together! Hurry up, don't get out of the way!"

The butler responded and took the order to leave.

It happened that Mrs. Lin came in with a cup of soup, and almost ran into the butler...

When Yan saw the eldest daughter-in-law, she was upset, and couldn't help but swear at each other, "You are so frizzy in your decades, you are really crowned with a monkey... You are worthless with a pile of gold! Let me ask you , what are you holding in your hand?"

Mrs. Lin was scolded before she entered the door, so she stood outside and dared not come in. She timidly replied, "It's your medicine..."

"Let me take Laoshizi medicine before I eat it now! I think you want to kill me with medicine?" Yan scolded.

Mrs. Lin murmured, "My daughter-in-law dare not..."

"Go away!!!"

Mrs. Lin had no choice but to leave with the medicine bowl.

She felt a little wronged.

I am also in my 50s, and I am scolded by my mother-in-law like chasing a dog all day long...

She wiped away her tears and returned to her yard.

Just as Lin Yuexian was about to go out, seeing his mother's frowning face, he couldn't help but asked with concern, "Mother, what's wrong?"

Mrs. Lin sent herself medicine to the main room, and almost bumped into the housekeeper, but was scolded by Mrs. Yan...

Lin Yuexian narrowed his eyes immediately.

"Mother, did you hear with your own ears that grandma told the housekeeper to send someone to Hangzhou?" He asked in a low voice.

Mrs. Lin nodded.

While arranging her son's clothes, she muttered in a low voice, "...the eldest son in the yard over there is an idiot, and the third son is a bastard... I really feel sweaty for Miss Hui! The Lin family is a pit of fire, whoever marries in will be unlucky..."

"Mother!" Lin Yuexian whispered dissatisfiedly, "How did I explain to you? Before entering the courtyard, the words that shouldn't be said have to be kept in my heart, and I can't say them even if I'm suffocated...Did you forget again?"

Mrs. Lin was a little nervous. Looking around, she felt relieved again, "It's already at the door!"

"That won't work either!" Lin Yuexian said.

He had something on his mind, so he said to his mother, "Mother, just say that you don't feel well and don't go to the main room, lest you get sick after getting sick... Over there, they have been worrying about Hui's family for the past few days and have no time to talk to you. You don't want to run into it yourself, you can relax for a day if you can hide for a day... I have something to go out."

"Hey! Ziqian, are you coming back for dinner?" Seeing her son leaving in a hurry, Mrs. Lin called out.

But he has gone far.

Mrs. Lin sighed, touched her sore leg, and slowly returned to the house.

Fortunately, her two sons and daughters, the son is a promising one, and the daughter is well-behaved and obedient... Otherwise, I don't know how long it will take to get through this life in the Lin family.

As soon as Lin Yuexian left the mansion, he immediately summoned his confidant. After making arrangements like this, he took out a few banknotes and handed them to the confidant, and the confidant then took the order and left.

Lin Yuexian took out a pack of cigarettes from his door pocket, took out one and put it in his mouth.

But he started to stay.

After a while, he took the unlit cigarette in his hand again, walked a few steps, and threw the cigarette into the trash can.

No matter what, he has to give it a try...

Ever since meeting Lin Yuexian in the church that day, Hui Yimei has been a little restless.

In the past, all she could think about was to dissolve this marriage.

So she never thought about Lin Yuexian's proposal...

Hui Yimei hated the Lin family deeply.

But the harm between the two powers is the lesser.

Lin Yuexian's sudden marriage proposal that day made her deeply ashamed, but thinking about it carefully, the Lin family only had three sons, and apart from Lin Yuehong who was truly in love with Bai Yingying, only Lin Yuexian and Lin Yuean remained...

As for Lin Yuean, who had been hanging out with maidservants and actors since he was young, Lin Yuexian, who had never had any scandals, was naturally much better; but after all, he was not a direct descendant of the Lin family, and had no blood relationship with the Yan family. How about he become his marriage partner?

Thinking of the four words of marriage partner, Hui Yimei felt a little uneasy.

She tried to calm herself down.

There was a sound of footsteps, and Xiao Hong came in with a hot water bottle in one hand and the wooden bucket Hui Yimei usually used to soak her feet in the other.

Hui Yimei's foot bones are not well developed, so regardless of winter or summer, as long as she has the conditions, she is willing to soak her feet before going to bed...

Under Xiaohong's service, she soaked her feet absently, then packed up and went to bed to rest.

But she tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep.

At some point, she finally fell into a deep sleep.

However, in her sleep, Hui Yimei once again dreamed of that sea of ​​flames... the jumping flames, the whistling wind, the crackling sound of burning wood, the suffocating heat, and the choking thick smoke...

"...you wait here for me, I will come back and take you away..."

Who is whispering in her ear?

Hui Yimei woke up suddenly, and sat up from the bed panting heavily.

In the past few days, she kept dreaming about the fire.

In fact, it was not a pleasant memory, because every time she thought about it, she would experience that feeling again... the feeling of being suffocated by thick smoke.

Hui Yimei took out an embroidered handkerchief from under the pillow, and wiped the sweat from her forehead; then she groped and lifted the curtain to get up, walked lightly to the table, poured herself a cold glass, and drank it all in one gulp up.

She breathed a sigh of relief.

If possible, she would never want to experience such a nightmare.

But thinking about it this way, she suddenly fell into a daze.

The fire in the previous life was extremely tragic.

It is well known that Yan's treatment of the big house was bad on weekdays, but why did Lin Yuexian risk his life and rush into the flames to find Yan and himself?

Yan's own son, Mr. Lin Er, and Lin Yuehong, Lin Yuean were both in the old house at the time. Why didn't any of Yan's own sons rush into the fire to save people, but Lin Yuexian rushed in instead?
Hui Yimei suddenly fell down on the stool in a daze.

Once the seeds of doubt were planted, she could no longer control her thoughts.

Could it be that the fire was deliberately caused by someone?
In other words, the big fire was started by the people in Dafang? ? ?
But Mrs. Lin is loyal, Mrs. Lin is weak, and Lin Yuelan who has her feet bound... was divorced (abandoned) by her husband's family on the grounds of her "little feet" after only three months of marriage; she has been living in the Lin family ever since. , the door does not leave the door and does not step, like a quail, there is no sense of existence at all...

And Lin Yuexian usually has a gentle appearance, and he doesn't look like an arsonist.

So, why?
Huiyi raised her eyebrows.

She suddenly realized another problem.

The people in the big house... No, Lin Yuexian is willing to save even the Yan family, so why not come to save himself?Hui Yimei has stayed in the Lin family for ten years, and probably only Mrs. Lin, who is kind-hearted and soft-spoken, has some sincerity towards her.

Could it be that after Lin Yuexian took Yan Shi away, he really rushed into the fire again to save himself?

It's just that I didn't get him back?
or is it...

He died too? ? ? ! ! !
Hui Yi covered her heart with her eyebrows, her face pale.

She just sat there in a daze...

Until the sky turned white, she seemed to hear the faint sound of bells.

Soon, the sound of Xiaohong's light footsteps was heard in the corridor.

After a while, Xiaohong walked into the room with her clothes on.

Seeing Hui Yimei sitting upright in the room, Xiao Hong was taken aback!
"Miss, you..."

Before Xiaohong could ask, Hui Yimei asked, "What's the matter? Who came to ring the bell early in the morning?"

Xiaohong replied softly, "It's Mr. Ai. He has received an urgent telegram and wants to go back to England immediately. Now the family has prepared a car to take him to the train station...he wants to see you again."

Hui Yi's eyebrows widened.

Her mind was a little out of turn.

After a while, she casually took a shawl and hurried downstairs.

Ai Chengxuan was standing at the entrance of the corridor facing inside, the morning light shone on his back, making his face always hidden in the darkness, Hui Yimei couldn't see his expression clearly.

But he remained silent.

During this period of getting along, she knew that he was actually a big boy who loves to talk and laugh, and he shouldn't be like this now, with some inexplicable gloom in the silence...

Hui Yimei stood on the corridor, watching him quietly.

Seeing that she hadn't put on any makeup, and was even wearing a half-worn nightgown with some wrinkles and only a shawl over it, Ai Chengxuan couldn't help but said, "Yimei, I..."

Hui Yimei suddenly had a premonition.

What he wants to say is likely to become the center of a storm.And such consequences are unbearable for the Hui family, and neither can she...

So she interrupted him, whispering, "Bon voyage."

Hui Yimei's words successfully swallowed back the words that Ai Chengxuan had slipped to his lips.

He smiled wryly.

How can she be so smart?

He and she are people from two worlds.

He couldn't give her what she wanted at all...

So, what's the point of saying something?

What's more, she never accepted him.

Ai Chengxuan sighed in his heart, but quickly adjusted his expression on the face.

"How should I put it, we're brothers and sisters too," he said with a smile on his original happy face, "...Now that the senior is leaving, why don't you give me some souvenirs?"

Hui Yimei looked at him quietly.

She passed him abruptly and walked out into the yard.

Ai Chengxuan fell into a daze again.

Her thin and thin figure was completely shrouded by the golden morning light, but he knew that she looked weak and helpless, but she was actually very strong.

He was very sad.

She walked all the way to the magnolia tree in the center of the yard.

Bending down, she picked up a leaf that looked intact, wiped it with her shawl, and solemnly handed the leaf to him.

Ai Chengxuan took it without knowing why.

"Mochou has no confidant in the future, and no one in the world knows the king."

she said softly.

Ai Chengxuan gritted his teeth, held the green leaf tightly in his palm, and smiled at her.

He dared not speak.

Because once he opened his mouth, his feelings, his thoughts... would all be exposed!
Turning around, Ai Chengxuan knew that he should leave as soon as possible.

But he couldn't move any further.

this go...

I'm afraid I missed it.

She just stood quietly behind him, making no sound at all.

Ai Chengxuan stood steadfastly, and after a long time, he took a step forward, striding towards the outer courtyard...

Hui Yimei didn't see his reddened eye sockets.
