"What?"
As soon as these words came out, they were like a thunderbolt from the blue, instantly hitting Ling Yun on the forehead, making his mind go blank, and he froze in place, silent and unable to extricate himself for a long time.
It can be seen that his face was livid, his mouth was opening and closing, and his huge shock was clearly expressed, and he simply couldn't believe his ears.
I don't know how long it took, Ling Yun suddenly felt lost, his Adam's apple squirmed, and he looked at Wu Wa with complicated eyes. He still didn't want to believe that this was true. He swallowed and said in a trembling voice, "This... is this true?"
Wu Wa still didn't speak. When she heard his question, she covered her mouth tightly and let her tears fall. She paused for a while and then nodded slowly.
With this nod, Ling Yun knew what it meant. It was like a bolt of lightning shot down from a height of 10,000 meters, hitting him directly. He had no time to react, and his body retreated uncontrollably, stumbling. Fortunately, Sanniu's eyes were quick and his hands were quick.
Turn around and help him up, otherwise he will fall to the ground.
With Sanniu's support, Ling Yun stabilized his body, pointed at the fat man with trembling fingers, and said expressionlessly, "Catch him... and take him to the woodshed."
Then he added, "Also, instruct the maid to take Miss Fifth back to her room. She is not allowed to leave the room even half a step without my permission."
While talking, he was afraid that Da Wa and the others would come out to stop him, so he directly issued a death order.
"Remember, it's useless for anyone to come!"
After saying that, he left the courtyard without looking back, and then left the Ling Mansion.
Ling Yun was distraught. He was about to leave the capital and was thinking about how to deal with the aftermath. Unexpectedly, something bad like the fifth baby happened again.
Who could have imagined that Wu Wa, his beloved sister, would dare to get pregnant before marriage. This was in the ancient feudal society. How could she do such a thing that ruined the family tradition?
Although he is a modern person, he still cannot accept this reality. Maybe it is because he is deeply bound by this era, or maybe it is the so-called deep love and deep hatred!
He was walking aimlessly on the road. No one knew where he was going, because he himself didn't know where he was going. He just wanted to go for a walk and relieve the suffocation in his heart.
If he continues to stay in the house, driven by his love and anger for the fifth baby, he may do something crazy to the fat man.
He didn't want to do something he would regret when he was angry, so he could only walk out of the mansion to calm his restless heart.
It was already noon when he came back, and the three sisters of the Ling family had been waiting for him in the living room for a long time. As soon as the three of them saw him coming back, they immediately went to greet him.
The three of them had shallow smiles on their faces, but they seemed extremely forced. Perhaps they felt guilty for not telling him about Wu Wa in time.
Da Wa brought a cup of tea, handed it to Ling Yun, and whispered softly, "Brother, drink a cup of tea first to calm down."
Although Ling Yun had complaints in his heart, he also knew that he couldn't be angry for a long time. He had to speak clearly when he needed to make it clear, and he couldn't remain silent when it came to a solution.
"Sister, I'm fine, sisters, there's no need to worry."
In fact, he knew that the purpose of the three people waiting for him here was just to plead for the fifth baby. Although they said it was okay, how could it really be okay.
When he thought that the three sisters of the Ling family had known the details of the matter for a long time and wanted to work together to deceive him, he felt helpless and chilled.
If it hadn't been for yesterday that he felt something was wrong and wanted to investigate, the fat man wouldn't have confessed to him today.
In other words, if he hadn't noticed that something was wrong, when they confessed, it would have been too late to stop the fire. How dare they, how dare they cover up such a thing.
Normally, when the fifth baby is naughty, he turns a blind eye in order to make her grow up happily. The discipline is a little loose, but not so loose as to change the bottom line.
What he didn't expect even more was that just because of his connivance and laissez-faire, he would do such immoral things.
If this spreads out, not only the family tradition and career will be affected, but even Wuwa himself will be gossiped about.
I thought it was excusable that the two of them were together, and they had just gotten together. He was angry because he wanted to let the fat man know that marrying his sister was not an easy thing, so he wanted to teach the fat man a lesson and make him eat.
Suffering.
But... they actually got pregnant out of wedlock and did such casual things. He didn't want to believe such things that were immoral and deviant.
But with the facts before him, how could he make a choice?
Relent and help them?
As soon as this thought occurred, Ling Yun shook his head decisively.
Obstruction?
Aborting the child may be the best solution in the eyes of others, but in Ling Yun's case, he couldn't do it.
Because the medical conditions in ancient times were so poor, he did not dare to try it easily. If the fifth baby had an accident, he would feel guilty for the rest of his life.
This doesn't work, and that doesn't work either. After much thought, I still can't think of a way to get the best of both worlds.
Just thinking about this, Ling Yun was instantly filled with hatred, wishing he could crush the fat man's bones to ashes in an instant to vent his hatred.
The eldest baby was hesitant to speak, but for the sake of the fifth baby, he finally couldn't help gritting his teeth and said, "Brother, the fifth baby...she is also impulsive. Otherwise, let her out! After all, there is still something in her belly.
There is a child.”
Erwa couldn't help but said, "Yes! Brother, she is your only sister."
Ling Yun sneered and muttered in a low voice, "You can forgive the evil you do by God, but you can't live if you do your own evil!"
Then he sneered and said, "Ha~ sister? I don't have such a disgraceful, rebellious sister."
Erwa pursed her lips and said nervously, "Brother, although Wuwa is a little impulsive, no matter what, she is also our sister. As her relatives, we should help her..."
Sanwa couldn't help but said, "Yes! Brother, we should think of a way to solve this matter."
Ling Yun glanced at the three of them and snorted coldly, "So, just because she is a younger sister, you are so conniving and protecting her?"
Ling Yun did not retreat but advanced, and continued, "Do you know what the consequences will be if this continues? If... if next time, something more outrageous or life-threatening happens next time, do you think you can continue to do so?
Protect her?"
The three of them, Dawa, originally wanted to persuade Ling Yun, but they never expected to be rendered speechless by him, so that the three of them looked at each other with expressions of bewilderment.
Finally, Da Wa stood up and admitted her mistake, "Brother, we were wrong. We shouldn't have hidden it from you for her."
After saying that, he lowered his head in frustration, and the second baby and the third baby also lowered their heads in tacit agreement, seeming to feel sad for hiding this from him.
Ling Yun ignored their apology, because this was not an ordinary matter, but a matter of principle and family tradition. If he did not deal with it seriously this time and let it go, if he continued like this in the future, the consequences would be disastrous.
Take him for example, from the moment he entered the school to the day he became a court official, he always paid special attention to his personal reputation. For more than ten years, he did not dare to slack off in this regard for fear of something happening.
, was taken out by the enemy and magnified infinitely.
Originally, being framed by Concubine He in the palace was already a stain on him. Unexpectedly, as soon as he escaped, before he had time to relax, the fifth child happened to him. It really didn't make him worry.
In fact, regarding his reputation, it was still a trivial matter. What he was most afraid of and worried about was Wu Wa. If someone were to criticize or ridicule him about this matter in the future, and he was not around, she could only treat her coldly in silence.
bear.
His identity might be able to intimidate others and make them fearful, but it could not stop others from talking. A casual rumor would be enough to kill Wu Wa.
Just like in Guangping Village when I was a child, more than 90% of the villagers in the village were all sarcastic and gossiping about the Ling family behind their backs.
I remember that my grandparents, as well as my father and mother, didn't grit their teeth and bear it silently. At that time, they were worried that they would know about it, and they kept telling him not to play with the children in the village. But he was so keen that he couldn't see the merits of it.
.
At that time, it could be said that I saw it with my eyes and felt pain in my heart. At the same time, I vowed secretly in my heart that I would let them live a good life.
Now that good times have come, no one dares to look down on the Ling family, and no one dares to ridicule the Ling family.
Now that Wu Wa is like this, the top priority is to make her realize her mistake, otherwise she will continue to act according to her temper in the future, causing unpredictable situations and hurting not only her personally, but the entire family.
Violating the regulations of the Yi tribe is no joke.
After thinking about it, Ling Yun still said with a cold face, "Sisters, please don't worry about this matter. Let my brother handle it!"
The third baby said a little uneasily, "But...brother, the fifth baby...will she be okay?"
"She has already performed the courtesy of having haircuts. No matter what, she will bear all the trouble she caused."
The third baby was shocked and feared severe punishment to the fifth baby. He quickly begged, "Brother, she is our only sister. We...can't treat her like this."
"If I had known this today, why bother!"
Ling Yun dropped these words and left the living room without looking back, paying no attention to Sanwa's choking.
The relationship between the third baby and the fifth baby is better. That is because when they were young, the two of them often stayed together. No matter what they did, the third baby liked to take the fifth baby with him.
Now, when I see something like this happening to my fifth baby, I feel heartbroken and at the same time, I am afraid of what Ling Yun will do to her.
So after Ling Yun left, the third baby hurriedly looked at the eldest baby. The only person who could help the fifth baby now was the eldest baby, because no matter what happened, the eldest baby's words were the ones that Ling Yun could listen to the most.
"Sister, younger brother...younger brother, if he punishes the fifth baby so severely, then...what should we do?"
Sanwa was so anxious that she was like an ant on a hot pot, circling around the room. She could not calm herself down. She could only waver and waver in her footsteps, surging with emotions that were difficult to calm down, and her heart was about to be filled with hot air currents.
The eldest child was also very upset and couldn't find a solution to the matter. She kept squeezing her hands back and forth, frowning tightly, and there seemed to be a layer of sadness in her heart, and a heart-wrenching feeling hit her.
pain.
Swallowing, he said with some uncertainty, "Sanba, don't worry, there will be a way. Besides, brother...my brother will not attack his own sister no matter what."
Even so, the third baby is still worried. What should they do if the younger brother lets the fifth baby die for the sake of his own honor?
Thinking of this, the third baby's body trembled involuntarily, and he couldn't help but express his worries, "Sister, what if something happens! This is not a trivial matter. Besides, my younger brother is now an official of the imperial court. In order to eliminate the influence, the contents of the fifth baby's belly are removed."
If the child is aborted, will the life of the five children be in danger?"
"Aborted?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the eldest child and the second child were stunned for an instant. The two were so frightened by the third child's words that they could not speak.
"Sister, what Sanwa said...will my brother do it?"
The second child was about to continue what he was saying, but as soon as he opened his mouth, the older child shouted loudly and said, "No, absolutely impossible. How could the younger brother do this? Don't think nonsense and scaremongering, the younger brother will not do this."
, definitely not..."
