Chapter 24 Misfortune 4
Master Lin narrowed his old eyes and looked seriously at Lin Jinrong on the ground. This granddaughter was not outstanding in the past. When she saw it, she also looked coquettish and cowardly. He asked and answered. He thought that she would try to hide some of them as much as possible, or she would push back, or just to ask him to be fair. Maybe she would cry for fear that he would be scared to death. Who would think she would be like this? I thought he was gentle, virtuous and obedient, but it turned out to be such a person, after all, the daughter of the Tao family.
Women should be gentle and virtuous, but Master Lin still prefers Lin Jinrong's straight back, although he kneels down and admits his mistake. Lin Yizhi was just asked guilty by him. He knelt on the ground in panic and didn't know why, and his waist and back collapsed... Can this waist collapse easily? No. After a long time, Master Lin said, "Do you think you should be punished?"
Should I be punished or not? You know it yourself that I don't have to say anything. Lin Jinrong didn't say anything. But she still made a full gesture and sincerely self-criticized: "The first thing is that I don't have time to tell my grandparents; the second thing is that I don't have the ability to turn big things into small things into small things, and I lose the face of the Lin family with personal resentment; the third thing, I instigated my younger brother
"Are you charming?" Old Master Lin suddenly laughed out, smiled for a flash, and said lightly, "The first thing you have never done wrong. If you sit back and watch your brother-in-law jump into the water and ignore it, you will be an unrighteous person regardless of your brotherhood!" The second thing is that you did something wrong. If your sister-in-law doesn't know how to protect the face of the family, you should stand up. What is personal grievance? Without a family, a father and a brother, and a decent reputation, you are nothing!" Mr. Lin's voice suddenly raised and lowered again, "The third thing... If I don't ask, do you want to hide it?"
Lin Jinrong looked up at him directly, with clear eyes and a firm flattering voice: "There is something in this family that can be hidden from my grandfather! If you want to say who is the most fair and strict in this family, who else can there be besides the grandfather? She has never made this idea, and she is not afraid that others will know that she asked Lin Shenzhi to do it!
Mr. Lin's eyes showed a little satisfaction, but it was just a flash: "I'm going to punish you for a month and copy the female commandment a hundred times, until you understand the truth of sister's blind date and family unity. Can you accept it?"
Isn't this the best ending? Lin Jinrong lowered his eyes and said, "Yes."
Mr. Lin waved his hand: "Go down."
Lin Jinrong bowed in silence, got up and retreated.
"Girl!" Seeing Lin Jinrong get out safely, Litchi immediately turned out of the porch, smiled brightly at her, and handed her hand: "Let's go back."
Lin Jinrong smiled soothingly at the lychee, holding the lychee's hand, and her heart was full of excitement. Look, she can do it!
"Four girls, please wait a moment!" Fu Quan rushed out from behind and handed over a lantern: "The old man ordered the fourth girl to use it!"
Litchi was a great surprise and thanked Chaofu. Fu Quan smiled and said, "The fourth girl is careful with her feet."
Lin Jinrong nodded to Fuquan kindly: "Uncle Fu, I'm sorry."
Lin Jinrong walked to the door of Ting Taoju and then looked back, but saw the twins coming out of the other wing with a frightened face and stepped into the old master's study side by side. The corners of her lips couldn't help but turn up. It was easy for Master Lin to take care of the affairs of the inner courtyard. No one could escape!
A bowl of white rice that has been heated several times, four dishes with half meat and half vegetables, plus a bowl of chicken soup, is Lin Jinrong's late dinner. She sat down at the table, took her dinner seriously, chewing ten times, no less, and eating seriously and carefully.
As soon as Lin Jinyin, who knew that she came back, immediately rushed over, entered the door. What she saw was Lin Jinrong's thin back under a dim yellow celadon fuel-saving lamp, silently eating rice that had been hot many times.
Lin Jinyin's heart was sour, and her eyes were a little blurred. She had heard about the result of Lin Jinrong's punishment. Although she was uncomfortable, she also felt lucky. After all, Lin Jinrong was not the only one who was punished. But when I saw my sister like this, the anger rose again.
"The third girl is here." Mother Gui hurriedly reminded Lin Jinrong. Lin Jinrong quickly put down the bowls and chopsticks and smiled brightly at Lin Jinyin: "Third sister."
Lin Jinyin quickly came forward and pressed Lin Jinrong to sit down: "Eat your meal quickly. Are you hungry?" She really wants to get some more delicious food for her sister, but she can't. Isn't it obvious that she doesn't accept the old master's punishment? As the eldest sister, Lin Jinyin feels a little guilty.
Lin Jinrong didn't care at all: "I don't want to eat it." Then he told Mother Gui, "It's time to clean up. Pick out the good ones and give them to the lychee."
Mother Gui knew that the two sisters had something to say, so she led Guiyuan to pack up her things, retreated and stood outside the curtain and waited quietly.
Lin Jinrong went straight in: "Where's my mother?" Dow must have something to do, otherwise he wouldn't have come to see her with Lin Jinyin.
Lin Jinyin's eyes flashed and whispered, "Dad got a tea bowl from his grandfather and broke his forehead. He was lying in the room asking someone to serve him. My mother couldn't leave."
Deed! Lin Jinrong said coldly, "Are you making trouble again?"
Lin Jinyin shook his head with certainty: "No, my aunt's cousin is here, and my grandfather has just been angry again. How dare he? It's just a different way to toss around." When she came over, Master Lin was lying on a soft pillow in a high bed, with his head wrapped in a piece of white silk, humming. He instructed Tao to hand him tea, and then asked Aunt Huang to rub his feet.
Lin Jinrong asked again, "Where are the fifth brother and the seventh brother?"
There was a smile in Lin Jinyin's eyes, but he only said Lin Shenzhi first: "The seventh brother has fallen asleep. It was Fu Quan who sent him there. I heard that someone asked him if he could read at the banquet today, so he recognized a few words in front of everyone and wrote a few more words. The old master was very happy and This is the treatment that was only given to the lobby brother of Sun, the chief of the house. Thanks to my mother who taught our sister and brother to read and write early, otherwise there would be no chance. Lin Jinrong held Lin Jinrong's shoulder with praise: "Thanks to you, I was able to come up with that way at that time."
If the old man can teach Lin Shenzhi in person, she is also staring at her, and she is no longer afraid that Lin Shenzhi will go crooked. Lin Jinrong smiled and his eyebrows bent. It was really worth it for him to be banned for a month.
Hearing Lin Jinyin paused again, he said faintly, "Your fifth brother, you are being punished to kneel now. You are kneeling in the ancestral hall and will kneel until tomorrow morning. The old master should punish him for the crime of boasting, and the other should punish him for not being able to defend his brothers and sisters. He is selfish and timid.
Even if he was already like this, Lin Yizhi would still be punished, but he just knelt down for one night and didn't jump into the lake to suffer the cold. He must not have been like that in those years. Lin Jinrong squeezed his lips and smiled, and said with half sarcasm, "Dad doesn't complain?"
Lin Jinyin sneered: "If it hadn't been for you and your mother, he would have been punished for kneeling all night! Who dares to say half a word more?" Therefore, Master Lin was hit by the old man's teacup on his forehead, and he only dared to pretend to be weak and soft, and he didn't dare to say anything else. It's just that Tao's face-to-face with the old lady will come out sooner or later. I don't know what will happen after Wu and Tao Fengtang leave. But she didn't plan to talk to Lin Jinrong. What she said didn't work, but many people were worried.
Lin Jinrong was very satisfied with the current situation and lowered his voice and said, "When I came out, I saw that Liumei and Qimei also entered Tingtaoju. It seemed that they went into the side room with me one after the other."
Lin Jinyin said, "I know about this. I went in for a quarter of an hour after you. Let's wait a little longer. Maybe there will be news.
The two sisters sat down one by one for a rest. Lin Jinrong was a little tired. He fell on Lin Jinyin's shoulder and laughed in a low voice, "I forgot to tell you something. The eldest cousin said, let you look carefully on the box, don't think there is only one layer!"
Lin Jinyin was so embarrassed that he jumped up and wanted to take care of Lin Jinrong's itchy meat: "I want you to talk nonsense!"
Lin Jinrong dodged and smiled, "How does my sister know I'm talking nonsense? Why don't you go back and have a look? I know what it is, but I won't tell you!"
Lin Jinyin couldn't sit still. He wanted to leave but was embarrassed to leave. Lin Jinrong pushed her: "It's getting late. Just go back. Let people see that you don't sleep so late and have something to say."
Lin Jinyin just got up and said goodbye to Lin Jinrong. He asked the woman to pick up the lantern and hold the loquat back.
Lin Jinrong sat alone under the lamp for a moment. Fang asked Guiyuan and others to send water to wash. As soon as he combed his hair, Litchi came in and whispered, "The sixth girl and the seventh girl came out of Ting Taoju. They were banned for two months and copied the girl's commandment 200 times. Now it's the second master who went in.
It's too light! Gui Yuan said uncompressingly, "It's obviously their fault, but we are so tired that our girl is also punished."
Lin Jinrong smiled faintly: "Go to sleep." The twins were punished twice as much as hers. Looking at this alone, you can already know who is the most wrong in Master Lin's mind. If only the twins and Lin Yizhi were punished, but not her, they also praised Lin Shenzhi. They looked at the scenery and exhaled, but behind their backs, they were more eye-catching and more hateful. The third master can't count on it. The foundation of the third house is not solid. Compared with what she pays, she gets more. It is very cost-effective for her to ban her feet and copy the female commandments.
That female commandment, she can write it word for word with her eyes closed. Is it useful? It's not completely useless, read it well and use it skillfully, but it's an excellent amulet. Lin Jinrong smiled and said, "Remember to find me a good ink tomorrow, a stack of good paper, and a good pen. Girl, I want to take this opportunity to practice writing..." She glanced at the lychee and said, "You're not on duty tonight. Get up early tomorrow and finish this as soon as possible." Litchi should know a few words.
It's not lychee on duty at night, it's longan on duty at night, but Guiyuan people all went to the couch outside, and remembered how to euphemistically remind Lin Jinrong to hand over the key to his own management. After thinking about it, he couldn't find a suitable excuse,
