Linzi Shu [2]

His eyes that were as round as stars looked like two round grapes, and his cheeks that were as fair and translucent as a small bun were as adorable as well. His soft hair, which was gathered together in a small, clear purple jade crown, made him look even more adorable. All the female members of the Grand Commandant Residence cast sidelong glances at him. It was because of his noble status that they did not dare to smile. Otherwise, they would definitely pinch his tender cheeks.

The servant girl gave the two esteemed guests a glass of the best spring water, causing the atmosphere to become even more awkward, Lin Tai Yu gave a dry laugh: "Firstly, you came to my Tai Bei Residence, and immediately your presence brings light to my humble dwelling. This humble one has heard that the crown prince is a prodigy that everyone knows about in Great Ying Empire.

Meng Shili blew gently on the tea foam floating in the air and said politely, "Since the stickers have been put away, it would be good for the Tai Bei Manor and the Rucan King Manor to remain permanently in Qin and Jin. Grand Commandant need not be polite. We will settle for brother and sister."

Meng Shili had just finished speaking when a clamor came from the front yard. It was as if someone was making a ruckus. A look of doubt surfaced in Meng Quan's eyes as he looked at Grand Commandant Lin in the blink of an eye.

Grand Commandant Lin frowned slightly, faintly clenching his sleeves. He smiled apologetically: "These girls in my house are getting more and more undisciplined." In the blink of an eye, he instructed the guards outside, "Men, hurry, coax them out of here so as not to disturb the peace and quiet of the two officials!"

The din did not stop because of Lin Taibai's angry reprimand. Instead, it grew louder and louder until it reached his ears.

"I won't marry, Father! Do you want to sacrifice your daughter's happiness in exchange for power! Your daughter is unwilling! " The woman with the pretty face pushed her two servants aside and strode into the living room.

"Useless slave, Miss is so sick that she's talking nonsense, why aren't you sending Miss back to her room!" Seeing how angry Lin Taibai was, if he was right, then this person in front of him was most likely the future sister-in-law of Meng Qingwu, Lin Zishu.

Lin Zhishu was indeed dressed in the elegant attire of an unmarried girl, with a delicate oval face. She looked to be around sixteen to seventeen years old, and her eyes were filled with an air of fearlessness and stubbornness. However, she was different from the Lin Family's female servant who was dressed in an extravagant and extravagant manner. Between her black hair was a cheap silver hairpin that anyone could buy in a silver shop.

"Father! [My daughter doesn't want to marry the son of Ran Cheng!] Besides, his daughter had her own family, so she didn't want to marry anyone else! Your daughter is unfilial and will be filial to you again in the next life. " With that, Lin Zhishu tore off the only silver hairpin on his head, wanting to end his own life.

Meng Yuping quickly snatched the silver hairpin away. It only scratched her neck. Lin Zishu sat on the floor paralyzed, as if her soul had been sucked out of her.

Lin Tai Ming was so angry that he could not speak. After a long while, he said while trembling, "Unfilial daughter! Unfilial daughter! Traditionally, the marriage of a child was ordered by the parents, so it is not up to you to decide. If this old man wants to kill that poor scholar, then you can give up! "

Heh! He did not expect Lin Zishu to secretly approve of this scholar. He was afraid that he would have to give up on this marriage.

Lin Zishu's tears fell as he heard this and he cried out sorrowfully, "Father, don't kill Xiao Lang! Don't kill Xiao Lang!"

Meng Shili had seen enough of the farce in front of him, and said indifferently, "Great Lieutenant Lin, since Miss Lin has no intention of marrying my brother, my clan will not force anyone to marry us. "In that case, we'll be taking our leave, brother and sister."

Meng Shili jumped down from the chair and held the hand of Meng Yinsan as he prepared to leave this place. It seemed that his brother and this woman were not fated to be husband and wife. In her heart, Meng was fighting for her eldest brother. What kind of poor scholar would he be, better than the son of King Ru, who was born with a golden spoon in his mouth? His brother had reached the age of marriage, so it wasn't that his bearing was extraordinary and elegant, but it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he had come from a family that was hot enough to win over others. However, that stubborn older brother didn't even raise his eyes. He didn't know how he fell for such a stubborn girl.

Just as Lin Tai San wanted to stop the two of them from leaving, Lin Zi Shu suddenly held on to the leg of the girl and said sorrowfully, "Princess, please save my daughter. My daughter rejected the marriage. Father will definitely lock me up for the rest of my life! "

It was true that her brother's sweetheart was a stubborn person, but in her heart, she couldn't help but feel a sense of respect for him. She couldn't help but remember that she had once learned an ancient poem in her childhood.

At that time, it was still not clear how love could ruin a good person's dress belt and make him look haggard. Now that he saw Lin Zhishu's plot of a scholar, which could only appear in a play, he was suddenly enlightened.

"Miss Lin, please forgive me for speaking bluntly, but this is your family matter. You have yet to marry into our family, and even if you do, it will be difficult for us to do so. I can't help you either."

Lin Zishu's almond-shaped eyes turned into two peaches, which made Meng Ke sigh. She let go of Meng Ke's thighs and could only sit on the ground and cry. It was really pitiful.

But this was different from a small matter. If she were to be annulled, she would most likely die of old age at the Grand Commandant's estate. No one would ever dare to marry her again. So: "Miss Lin, quickly get up, it's not like there is no leeway for this matter. You can only cry, no one can help you."

After he finished talking, Meng Shili leaned against the door frame, put his arms around his body and sneered, "Second sister, you are willing to meddle in this business. She is not willing to enter the Royal House of Rucheng because of her good fortune."

"What does a child like you know!" "Shut your mouth."

"You!" Meng Shili glared at Lin Zishu angrily, flicked his sleeves, and walked out of the door.

Grand Commandant Lin slumped in his master's chair, holding his forehead. He was obviously very angry. Lin Zishu was helped to his feet by the mocycline and thanked him profusely.

"Captain Lin, since something like this has happened." "I have to wait for this princess to return and report to my parents before coming up with any plans. I can't just waste Miss Lin's life, otherwise this good news will become a sin." Lin Taiyuan saw that Meng Xin didn't have any harsh words to say, so he bowed and said, "This humble subject has raised an unfilial daughter and offended the princess and her son. This subject shall be punished, and at a later date, I shall go to the palace to apologize."

"There's no need to apologize. Since that's the case, it's time for me to return the favor."

— —

He must have told his brother and his parents about the incident, because the room was filled with a gloomy atmosphere as he strolled into the hall.

"Can it be that this King's son is determined to marry his daughter, the daughter of the clan of the Grand Commandery? "How bold." It sounded like my father's voice.

His father sat in the master seat, fuming. His mother was fidgety at the side, while his second mother was the most upset. She took a handkerchief and wiped her tears away. As for a certain child, he was casually sitting in an armchair with half a piece of fruit paste in his mouth, as if he was waiting to watch a good show.

Father, Chen'er doesn't want to marry anyone. She's the only one in our heart." It turned out to be the story of the King of Xiang's willful unwitting goddess. However, this was not easy to deal with. Lin Zishu was always looking for a way to live, and this was his own brother.

Second Aunt threw herself at Meng Shichen and cried, "You silly child, Lin Zishan has only met you once, but with your status and position, you can't help but pick out the direct daughter of one of the families in Manying Ying City and focus all your attention on Lin Zhishu. "Your Highness, you have to make the decision for Chen'er!"

"Father, if our daughter continues to cause trouble, even if Miss Lin doesn't die, no one in Ying City will dare to marry her. In that case, it would be our fault."

After he finished talking, Meng Shichen turned around and stared at her with a look that seemed like he was going to swallow her whole. For the first time in seventeen years, her gentle and humble brother was looking at her with such a gaze, causing her to feel a chill in her heart.

"Susu, I'm your blood brother. Did you think I wronged her when she married me? Why don't you speak up for your brother? Furthermore, the sticky note has already been delivered and everything is set in stone, so you can't change anything. " Meng Shichen's mouth twitched as he spoke, "Father, marriage should be decided by our parents. Go and tell Tutor Lin that as long as Zi Shu is willing to marry into the clan, I won't mind …"

Crazy. Crazy.

His brother was as gentle as water, and although he couldn't do anything as important as her, neither could he be as smart as Shili in his childhood, nor as good at reading as his eldest sister, and was often scolded by his father ever since he was a child, he didn't utter a single word of complaint. His current deranged appearance, in the end … What was going on?

"Big brother, what are you shouting at second sister for?" Furthermore, everything she said was true, and she did not do anything wrong. Could it be that you really want to see Lin Zishu lose his life in vain?! " Meng Shili saw that he was finally unable to sit still and tried to defend his sister.

"Alright!" "Stop being so noisy!" Meng Shi rubbed his forehead, a headache coming on.

"I've already entered the Meng Clan's ancestral hall. There's no longer room for manoeuvres. All of it is gone." Meng Shi rose to his feet and left.
