Childhood Sweethearts of a Family: The Delicate Girl

Chapter 155

Hearing Lin Yu talking back to him, Xu Ji's complexion became even worse.He was originally standing, but now he was made to stand up by Lin Yu's words.Even if Xu Ji is just a weak scholar, there is no doubt that he is much stronger than Lin Yu.He stood up with a dark face, which also made Lin Yu take a step back unconsciously.

Xu Ji came out from behind the desk and approached Lin Yu.Seeing that he seemed to want to make a move, Lin Yu wanted to turn around and run away, but Xu Ji had expected that she wanted to run, and when she turned around, he had already grabbed her wrist first, and immediately pulled Lin Yu back .Lin Yu's wrist hurt from Xu Ji's strong pinch, and she struggled desperately, trying to break free from his restraint.

"You didn't do anything wrong? Do you think you didn't do anything wrong?" Xu Ji didn't let Lin Yu have a chance to break free. The more Lin Yu struggled, the more force he put on his hands immediately.Lin Yu's other hand, which was not held by him, kept beating his chest, and he didn't care, because it didn't hurt at all with Lin Yu's strength.

Lin Yu found that she couldn't break free from Xu Ji's restraint, and it was useless to beat him. Hearing what he said, she immediately glared at him angrily, "Let me go!" She was not afraid in her heart, but she knew that she It's useless to be afraid at this time.She was terrified to death, Lin Yu felt that she really didn't know the person in front of her.

Xu Ji held Lin Yu with one hand, and he didn't care about Lin Yu glaring at him angrily, as if Lin Yu's constant struggle had no effect on him at all.He touched Lin Yu's cheek with his other free hand, and said to her, "Of course you can let go, but you have to understand first, how can you treat my mother like that? You are wrong if you talk back, do you know?"

Lin Yu couldn't help crying because of Xu Ji's horrified expression, the pain from his wrist, and his gloomy tone, but she desperately suppressed the tears.She finally became a little weaker, and when she was nearly [-] years old, she still couldn't let go of being treated like this by her husband and being said so.

There was a bit of crying in her voice, she still wanted to question Xu Ji for such a change of attitude and such words.But her voice was not very confident, it sounded soft, she asked Xu Ji, "What's wrong with you? Why did you become like this when you came to the capital? Why do you seem to be different from the person in Fuyang all of a sudden?" ?”

Xu Ji frowned, seeing that Lin Yu seemed to be about to cry, he let go of her wrist.His brows were always frowning, as if he had doubts in his heart, and he replied to Lin Yu, "Why are you crying? Once you cry, I can't help you. Have I changed or have you changed? When I was in Fuyang, How are you? Where did you ever talk back to my parents? How did I not know that you did your best for this family? But look at the way you are now, where do you live? "

Lin Yu hadn't spoken yet, but Xu Ji had already continued.

"I agreed to live in the princess mansion, why did I go back on it? I remember, didn't your brother say that in the letter? After coming here, it turned out to be such a place. What's the matter? Or you talk back to your mother, of course you can't talk back to your mother, didn't you never do this in the past?"

"Do you know, how long has Mother been looking forward to coming to the capital, looking forward to living in the princess mansion? She has been looking forward to it for so long and it came to nothing. Can she feel better? She is not feeling well, that is, how many times have you In other words, what's the matter? Don't you know what your mother looks like to you? "

Xu Ji turned his back, he didn't know if he didn't want to see Lin Yu or what, but the accusations didn't stop there.

"And what was your attitude when you talked to me just now? You even dared to talk back to me. What do you want? Don't think about it. How I treat you on weekdays. I usually go to Auntie's place. How many times?"

Lin Yu found that she was speechless by Xu Ji's words, and even began to wonder if she was a little too sensitive, thinking that because of such a small matter, her parents-in-law would treat her badly, thinking that her husband I just hated myself... Lin Yu couldn't help shaking when she realized that she had unintentionally wanted to take such a big step back towards Xu Ji.

She clearly knew that it wasn't Xu Ji who said that. She clearly knew that her parents-in-law just meant that accusation was so obvious, and Xu Ji's attitude towards her just now was clearly wrong. How could she still think that it was really herself? Mistaken?But Lin Yu couldn't explain what happened just now...

For a moment, Lin Yu froze there.

Xu Ji who turned his back didn't get any answer from Lin Yu, and turned around after a while, seeing the complex expression on Lin Yu's face, hesitant and struggling, but he was relieved in his heart.He was also suffocating in his heart. He originally thought that he had a bright future. If he could live in the Princess Mansion, he would definitely be able to meet more wealthy and well-known people, which would be very beneficial to his future, so he lived here Come, I am not reconciled to anything in my heart.

I was unhappy at first, but when I heard Lin Yu talking back to her mother, the unhappiness became more obvious. When Lin Yu talked back all of a sudden, I didn't control my emotions and accidentally spoke to her. The attitude was a bit too bad.Originally, he thought that if Lin Yu was willing to give in, maybe he could use some strong methods to force her to find a way to see if she could live in the princess mansion.

It's just that she didn't expect that Lin Yu would not give in at all, and there was no other way but to let go of her attitude and continue coaxing her.I used to think that she only eats soft things and not hard things, but this hasn't changed at all after so many years. She just said a few good words, and she suddenly doubted her previous thinking.

Xu Ji felt complacent all of a sudden, he walked over and wanted to put his hand on Lin Yu's shoulder, but she avoided him, he didn't care much, but his tone softened and coaxed Lin Yu, "I was too impulsive just now, when I heard my mother Tell me that I was wronged because I didn't think about you, and I also realized that I was wrong, so don't get angry with me."

"After all, I am also a son. How can I hear my mother say that I have been wronged? It is not good to be impulsive all of a sudden. What's more, when you just came here, you looked so scary. I thought I provoked you If you don’t pay attention to your behavior all of a sudden, don’t be angry with me for the sake of the children, okay? It would be bad if the children saw it.”

Lin Yu felt that she was played by Xu Ji like a fool. Is she so easy to deceive or so easy to fool?With that kind of attitude towards her before, you actually feel that as long as you say that, she doesn't care, and you will feel that he really didn't mean it?There was no place to vent the depression in her heart. Even if she didn't believe Xu Ji, she didn't want to forgive his behavior just now. Lin Yu couldn't be indifferent to what Xu Ji said about the child. She knew that even if it was for the child, she should endure it now.

Seeing that Lin Yu still refused to speak, Xu Ji looked down and saw that her wrist was still red, so he stretched out his hand to gently hold her wrist and lifted it up, rubbing it slowly, and said that someone should bring medicinal wine to replace her. Give it a good wipe.

This time, Lin Yu did not shake off Xu Ji's hand.

Knowing that her cousin's family had arrived in the capital, she got the address from her mother.After all, Lin Yuan was a cousin, so she should have come to visit her.She asked Qi Haoran if he wanted to go together, but Qi Haoran said that he was not free, so Lin Yuan had to go alone.Since Qi Haoran didn't have time to go, Lin Yuan specially brought some extra gifts to the door.

The location of the house that Lin Hao bought for Lin Concubine and the others was relatively good in the capital, and it was very convenient to go anywhere as you walked out of the alley to the long street.Lin Yuan took Biyi and Bisha, and came to visit in a carriage with gifts, and also asked the servants to deliver the greeting card in advance, which was a prophetic word.

Seeing that she got off the carriage, Lin Yuan couldn't help being surprised to see not only a middle-aged woman with a light body but an unremarkable complexion standing outside the hanging flower door, but also an old woman with an exaggerated smile beside her. .She came as soon as she came, and her cousin came to welcome her... It's reasonable, but why is her cousin's mother-in-law waiting here?
Although she was very surprised in her heart, Lin Yuan didn't show it on her face. After getting off the carriage, she greeted her with a smile.Behind her, Biyi and Bisha took down the gift boxes from the carriage. Mrs. Xu's eyes lit up when she saw the gift boxes one after another, and she immediately smiled even more heartily at Lin Yuan.

Standing aside, Lin Yu caught a glimpse of the obsequious look on her mother-in-law's face from the corner of her eye, and remembered that she had told her directly that Lin Yuan, a cousin, had a good husband's family, and wanted him to have a better relationship with Lin Yuan... Married to the Xu family, it is true that she has to rely on the help of others to live a good life, and she also feels that Lin Yuan is a cousin, and she is so much younger than her, so she can't do it if she wants to get close to Lin Yuan.What's more, my cousin is also married, how can I manage too much of her husband's affairs?
With mixed feelings in Lin Yu's heart, she invited Lin Yuan to the house to do it.When they entered the room, Biyi and Bisha had already handed over the gift box to Lin Yu's maids.Lin Yuan took off the cloak, handed it to the maid, and was carried inside by her cousin.

When going inside, Lin Yuan also took a look at the place where her cousin lived.On weekdays, she doesn't pay much attention to other people's mansions, but before she came, both her own mother and her sister-in-law told her that she was the only cousin after all, and it would be nice to take care of the places she could take care of. It should be, and it should be more concerned, so she will pay more attention.

Although it can't be said how magnificent and magnificent, but Lin Yuan saw that the room was spacious, well lit, and warm inside, so she thought it was a comfortable place to live.After getting a general understanding of these situations, Lin Yuan didn't pay any more attention, but concentrated on chatting with her cousin about other things.

In fact, it's not that special, just asking if I'm used to coming to the capital, and if there's anything I'm not used to.Qi Haoran should apologize to his cousin for not coming.Just after Lin Yuan finished talking about Qi Haoran's busy schedule, he was unable to say this. Before Lin Yu could speak up, Mrs. Xu had already said, "What's the matter? Young Master Qi must be a busy person. Come back later when you have time." It's okay, no need to apologize."

Let's not mention it, most of the time, when the juniors meet, the elders will not interfere.Just to talk about it, originally Lin Yuan only came to see her cousin. As a mother-in-law, Mrs. Xu has an extra layer of relationship with Lin Yuan. Not to mention the question of whether she is close or not, she is with Lin Concubine and Lin Yuan. Yuan is not close at all.But no matter what, Lin Yuan is also a junior, and now Mrs. Xu is rushing to speak to a junior, she has compromised her identity after all.

Lin Yu was embarrassed by Mrs. Xu's rush to say such kind words, and hurriedly said to Lin Yuan, "It's what mother said. If you are busy, there is nothing you can do. Apologizing seems to be alienated."

As she spoke, she was afraid that her mother-in-law would say embarrassing things again, so she said first, "Brother Yun and Sister Xi are still in class with Mr., and I will ask the nanny to bring them to see their aunt after class is over later." .”

Lin Yuan understood Lin Jin's meaning, so she followed Lin Jin's words and talked about other things.

Mrs. Xu sat for a while and felt that although Lin Yuan would answer her every time, she obviously wanted to talk to Lin Yu more. She didn't want Lin Yuan to be unhappy. After sitting for a while, she left Find an excuse to leave temporarily.After Mrs. Xu left, no matter whether it was Lin Yuan or Lin Concubine, they were less restrained in their hearts.

If Mrs. Xu was around, Lin Yuan would have no way to ask or say some things. As for Lin Yu, her mother-in-law interrupted many things inappropriately. , and inevitably feel ashamed.It's just that Lin Yu lowered her head to look at the clothes on her body, and then looked at Lin Yuan's clothes and complexion, and felt a pang of sadness in her heart for no reason.

She is indeed not young now, but at least she was once young, at the same age as her cousin.At that time, she had not been married for a long time, but since she married into the Xu family, she had not worked hard for a single day, and now, she has shown her old appearance and she is no longer as beautiful as she was when she was young.

Lin Yu remembered that when she was about 15 years old, her mother took her elder brother to Beijing to take part in the examination, and by the way, she also thought that she had reached the marriageable age, and she would come to the capital to let her uncle and aunt see a good marriage. Life is always better.At that time, at that age, she also had many beautiful thoughts... But because of her elder brother, because of her mother, her dreams were shattered, and she left the capital in despair, returned to Fuyang and married Xu family.

She remembered that she also participated in some flower viewing parties, poetry parties and the like, and met some famous ladies.She envied those people's lives, envied their beauty, and also envied their elegance and nobility.Lin Yu regretted coming to the capital a little bit. In fact, if she didn't come here, staying in Fuyang would not be so bad, would it?

There are too many rich and noble families here, such as the ladies from those families she knew back then, she still remembers their names and which family they are from.But there is no doubt that they will never be as gray as she is today, wearing not-so-pretty clothes and not-so-delicate hair accessories, living a rough life...

Lin Yu tried so hard to let herself ignore and not to remember these things, but after seeing Lin Yuan, she finally couldn't help but remember them all.The cousin sitting in front of her behaved just like the noble girls she had seen and envied back then, with such a good demeanor.She didn't dress herself up on purpose, but her usual clothes were beyond her enjoyment.Her complexion was rosy, and her life was happy, so she looked beautiful and delicate.

Lin Yuan, who was talking with Lin Concubine, felt that her cousin seemed to be distracted, and stopped talking for a while. After seeing Lin Concubine's expression, she pondered for a while and thought about other things.

She was actually not sure if she would be able to say something to Lin Yu. Although it was a relationship between cousins, and where the age gap was, she still didn't seem to be very comfortable with some things.
