Chapter 295 Ask for Promise
Since this incident, Lu Yan has spent more time in the college. When he is at home, he takes care of some housework business that he must come forward. Most of the time, he listens to the hard study in the snow pavilion, and he always reads until the third watch every night. Even Lin Yuzhen was a little worried that he could not support him and would be tired, but no matter who persuaded him, he always smiled and went his own things as usual.
Lin Jinrong knew why. If he couldn't persuade him, he didn't persuade him. He just did what he should do one by one. He asked Mother Gui to prepare snacks for him to make soup, and also sent clothes. He asked if it was cold and warm. No matter how much, he couldn't do it was. Lu Yan also went into her room. He still ate with her and talked about family affairs, but at night, the well water did not violate the river. The words had reached that point. He did not need her to deal with it hypocritically, and she no longer did not want to deal with it hypocritically.
In a blink of an eye, Lu Yun officially got married, and Lin Jinrong also settled Litchi's marriage.
In early August, Lu Shao finally finished the ancestral temple and the old house. He should have gone home to arrange other errands. After Lu Yan and Mr. Lu were locked in the Juxian Pavilion for half a day, Mr. Lu sent Lu Shao to Taiming Mansion to open an incense shop, and did not even leave him at home on August 15. It made Lu Shi cry, but he had no choice but to be a man with his tail between his legs. Lu Jianzhong put up with it even more and pretended to train Lu Shao... He asked Lu Shao to work hard and be a good person in Taiming Mansion.
Lin Jinrong didn't ask what Lu Yan did in the middle. She just calmly analyzed that this incense shop was probably what Mr. Lu planned to give to the second room in the future. Sending Lu Shao far away should also be the preparation that Lu Yan was worried that he would go to Beijing to take the exam, and the second room took advantage of the opportunity to make waves.
She is changing, and he is also changing.
On August 15th, Lin Jinrong was in a bad mood. This year's festival, as usual as that year, Lufu's family was watching the moon, drinking and eating moon cakes on the Hanyue Building on the west side of the garden. Naturally, the people who enjoy the moon did not have more than that year, and most of them were absent... For example, the Song family, such as Lu Shao, Lu Jing, Lu Lu Lu, Lu Li and Ning'er.
Although Lin Jinrong knew that the past could not be returned, he was still in a turbulent mood. After drinking a few more cups of Dongyang, he was drunk. Seeing that Mr. Lu was happy, Lin Yuzhen, Tu and Lu Yun were also touting Mrs. Lu. Lv hugged Yuan Lang and Haolang and whispered to Litchi, and quietly went downstairs holding the stairs alone.
Hanyue Building is the tallest building built by the Lu family. The base is nearly eight feet above the ground, and there are three more floors on it, surrounded by partition windows that can be removed. After taking the partition window, you can easily see the scenery in the garden when sitting in the building, and it is the best place to enjoy the moon and enjoy the cool. Lin Jinrong never wanted to come here. Even last year, she also said that she was sick and avoided it because Ning'er died here that year.
At that time, it was also such a lively scene, but at that time, the whole Lu family was there, which was much more lively than now. Yuanlang and Haolang shouted that they ran in and out of Ning'er. They were still young, but they always wanted to play with them. They had to shout at their brother. The two thought he was He ran away alone, which made Ning'er cry several times. She couldn't bear it, so she led Ning'er downstairs to coax him to take him to catch ttles. In fact, she can't catch any ttles... It's just that she can't bear to be sad.
Lin Jinrong stood on the edge of the stone platform at the bottom of the Hanyue building, looking at the shadowy stone hill under the moonlight below. The rockery is only two or three feet long. It usually looks very elegant, but at that time it became a sharp weapon for killing people.
At that time, she led Ning'er here. Lin Yuzhen called her upstairs and asked her something, so she stood there and said a few words to Lin Yuzhen. Ning'er waited impatiently and pulled her to make trouble, so she asked the wet nurse to take him aside and wait. But in the blink of an eye, she answered Lin Yuzhen's words before she could hear Lin Yuzhen shouting downstairs.
She turned around in panic, and Ning'er was gone. Only Wen Niang stood on the edge of the stone platform in a daze, trembling her lips and said, "He ran around, and the maidservant didn't pull..." She couldn't hear the words behind, and she rushed down like crazy. Ning'er's face was already covered with blood - he fell from the stone platform and hit the stone rockery. However, after two days of suffering, his small body was finally cold in her arms.
Wen Niang committed suicide. She lost her love forever and completely broke up with Lu Yan. Even after so many years, Lin Jinrong still can't forget the unforgettable pain at that time. Life is better than death. For countless days and nights, she spent time in regret. She had been blaming herself. If she hadn't given Ning'er to Wen Niang at that time, if she had always taken Ning'er with her side and held her Or, if you look at Ning'er more when talking to Lin Yuzhen, won't Ning'er have an accident?
Lin Jinrong stroked his cheeks that were cold by the night wind, went down the stone platform, walked to the edge of the stone rockery, and gently supported the stone. The stone was cold, but she seemed to touch the small body, as if she smelled the frankincense from his body, and heard him shouting softly in her ear.
At that time, the stone hill was stained with Ning'er's blood. Later, it was smashed by Lu Yan with a sledgehammer, and the base was destroyed. At this time, the stone hill is still standing here intact. No one wants to smash it with a hammer tonight. Maybe it will continue to stand so quietly.
The previous life and the present life are indistinguishable, but the boundaries are so clear. Her Ning'er will never come back, and she can't go back to the past. Even if everything reappears, the mood will not be the same as before. Lin Jinrong took his hand back from the stone, gently wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and turned around and walked away. She thought that this was probably the last time she came here. It was over. Ning'er hid it in her heart. She didn't have to chew and hurt herself when she took out the bundle.
"What's wrong with you?" Lu Yan stood not far away and looked at her quietly. He became thinner and thinner... The robe looked a little empty.
"It's nothing. It's just drunkenness, and I want to come down and walk. Lin Jinrong stood there and looked back at him, sighing that he would never know that there was such a child, let alone that he and she had gone to that point. She was heartbroken, and he was also heartbroken. She once resented him for saying such heartfelt words to her, but now she looks back, it's just a pitiful person, hurting and hurting.
Lu Yan looked at Lin Jinrong in silence. He still knew clearly whether she cried or had never cried. But since she didn't want to talk to him, he didn't force it. He believed that one day she would take the initiative to say to him, and he whispered, "I'm going to go on the road on the 21st."
"The luggage is almost packed." Lin Jinrong's mood calmed down; "My mother and aunt have discussed it. Tomorrow we will go to Pingji Temple to ask for your peace. If you want to go, you can also take time to burn a sage of incense.
"It's not on this day. I'm free." Lu Yan stretched out his hand to her, "If you don't feel well, I'll take you back first. I will tell them from the elders.
Lin Jinrong shook his head gently; "No, I'm just resting under the shelter." She smiled and went to the stone bench beside her and sat down. "I was sick last year and retired halfway this year. I'm afraid the elders will say, is the Mid-Autumn Festival with me? That's not good."
Lu Yan pulled the corners of his mouth cooperatively, sat side by side on the stone bench with her, and whispered, "A Rong, if I can pick you up this time, we will live together in the future. Can you...?"
The moonlight is like water, the night wind is light, the sweet fragrance of osmanthus is faint, the surroundings are quiet, and only unknown insects sing in the grass.
Lin Jinrong looked at the twinkling stars in the sky in silence and said for a long time, "You will definitely pass the exam. It's just a little better or a little worse." Although he passed the exam that year, he did not do so well. Now that I think about it, if he hadn't coincided with the pain of losing his son at that time, he would have probably been better in the exam?
Lu Yan was very disappointed when he heard her avoid answering. He was silent for a moment and said with a smile, "Ling you a good word. I also think I can pass the exam.
"I'm sure I can." Lin Jinrong bent down and pulled out a few wicks from his feet, and made it up with the moonlight.
"What did you make up?" Lu Yan's attention was attracted by her dexterous fingers and looked over curiously.
Lin Jinrong smiled and said, "Weave small straw shoes. Miao Ya taught me in Zhuangzi that year.
"Miao Ya is married now, isn't she?" Seeing that the wick in her hand was about to run out, Lu Yan hurriedly handed over one.
"Yes, it's a good marriage. My mother promised her freedom."
Lu Yan smiled and chatted with her slowly; "You were in the village at that time, why were you so wild? It's just bold to do whatever you want. I have never seen a daughter's family like you. My aunt spoils you so much that she doesn't know what gentleness and virtuous is at all.
Lin Jinrong answered rudely; "At that time, you were like an old scholar, an old-fashioned lesson. I have never seen such a rigid and annoying person like you. You are not angry at all, stingy and unlikable at all. How can you look like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy?"
Lu Yan smiled and said, "Then we are half a catty. No one is much better.
Lin Jinrong squeezed his lips and smiled, buried his head in weaving shoes, and knitting most of the straw shoes. Litchi came down from Hanyue upstairs to greet her; "Grandma, the old lady is looking for you."
Lin Jinrong put the half of the straw shoes, got up and stroked the skirt, and asked Lu Yan, "Is Minxing going up?"
Lu Yan smiled; "I drank a lot just now, and I was also a little drunk. I'm resting here. You go first."
"Then I'll go first." Lin Jinrong got up and took a few steps. Suddenly, Lu Yan whispered behind her, "Arong, don't forget what I said before."
Lin Jinrong stood silently for a moment, continued to walk forward, walked to the stone platform and looked back. Lu Qian was still sitting there, full of moonlight.
Ah, ah, I'm so busy. I've tried my best. It's my fault.
