Part 1, Chapter 40: Cheap Master
Ling Tian sat honestly on the chair, feeling a little restless, his eyes flashing everywhere.
Mrs. Ling sat upright in front of him and looked at him with a smile; she looked like she was preparing for a long-term interrogation. Damn little guy, you must squeeze out all your secrets today!
Ling Tian complained secretly, his mind turned rapidly. Looking at grandma's attitude today, he knew that the barrier was not good today. After the old lady came in, the first sentence was: "Take Miss Xueer to the side room and take good care of her. Xueer, you go to play with your sister first, grandma teaches you, a disobedient little brother, and take you to eat delicious food later. Well, Xueer is so well-behaved!" The first sentence was said by the maid, but later it was said to Xiao Yanxue.
Xiao Yanxue looked at Ling Tian with a little fear and disgust, responded softly, and followed the maid out.
"Your master is okay?" Mrs. Ling looked at her grandson and suddenly asked.
My master? Ling Tian felt dizzy in his mind. What happened? Where did I get the master? He looked up at his grandma with a certainty look. He couldn't help but realize it in his heart. He secretly praised him for his good means!
If Ling Tian was really a five-year-old child and had a secret master, he would probably be deceived by Mrs. Ling's words!
This question undoubtedly means that I had known about you, so I would rather say it outright. This kind of psychological hint does not give Ling Tian the chance to avoid this topic at all. It is indeed a very clever method! But when Ling Tian heard this sentence now, he had the urge to laugh!
Ling Tian’s thoughts were heard. Since grandma had preconceived ideas and had such speculations and doubts, why not just follow the trap?
He pretended to be speechless and blurted out, "Uh, okay... Huh? Grandma, how did you know my master?"
As expected! Mrs. Ling thought to herself. Humph, little bastard, let you pretend, but you can try it out with just one sentence. Mrs. Ling couldn't help but feel proud in her heart.
He snorted coldly, continued to look confident, and said, "Hmph! Just your little thing, grandma doesn't know anything about it, it's not a big secret. Tell me, how did you meet your master?"
Mrs. Ling always clenched a little while in her words, that is, she implies that Ling Tian, I knew who your master was, but I didn't say it. At the same time, it would make the other party think that if I told a lie, I could hear it immediately, so it would be better to be honest.
Such a method is probably more than enough to deal with an experienced adult! However, facing the monster Ling Tian, the only consequence of doing so is that it is going further and further away from the wrong way of thinking.
Ling Tian thought for a moment and acted like he couldn't hide it anyway, so he just told it all. He poured beans into a bamboo tube. Of course, it was the beans that had been artistically processed.
In Ling Tian's narrative, when he was just three years old, one night, a white-bearded old man suddenly appeared in front of Ling Tian. When he saw him, he said he was a martial arts genius. He then proposed to accept Ling Tian as his disciple and asked Ling Tian to move out of his parents' room. Then he came to teach Ling Tian's martial arts skills every night when it was late at night, and so on... Ling Tian racked his brains to bring out the extremely cliché plots in martial arts novels he had read in his previous life. However, it is still an incredible thing in this world. Even Mrs. Ling couldn't help but open her mouth wide and looked incredible.
Through Ling Tian's narration, Mrs. Ling's long-term doubts about Ling Tian's living alone at the age of three were gone. She looked at her grandson with relief, and Lao Huai was very comforted.
Suddenly I remembered something and asked, "Tian'er, your master teaches you martial arts and makes you become a talent. This is a great thing. Why do you keep hiding your weaknesses and not letting us know?"
Ling Tian thought for a while and finally made up his mind and said, "Master said that our Ling family is too big now. If people know about me, there will probably be many people who will be unfavorable to my Ling family!"
Mrs. Ling nodded in agreement. It seemed that the master Tian'er's eyes were like a raging person. She was really not a simple person. She asked again: "Can you tell grandparents and your father and mother that you can still reveal the secret to you?" This is what Mrs. Ling has always been worried about; it would be fine if she snatched her grandson and became an apprentice, but she didn't let herself know! Ling Tian is the bloodline of our Ling family! Humph!
Ling Tian hesitated for a moment and finally decided to tell the truth: "The master once said that there are countless crises hidden in our Ling Mansion. He said that grandparents and fathers and mothers are of course trustworthy, but there are other people in the Ling Mansion who hold real power. By the way, Master also talked about the second uncle once."
Ling Tian made up his mind that since he couldn't hide it, he simply made it clear. With grandma's IQ, he is definitely not an ordinary person who ignores the overall situation! It is not a good thing to let her know the truth of the matter earlier. Anyway, there is a false master who is the header, so he is not afraid of being exposed.
Mrs. Ling immediately looked solemn: "What's your second uncle's business? What's your second uncle's business?" When she said this, Mrs. Ling frowned, and a feeling of something bad had already risen in her heart.
Ling Tian said: "The master once accidentally heard the second uncle having a secret conversation with Ling Zhen, saying that the second uncle had sent someone to eat the primordial grass for his mother..." Ling Tian thought to himself, since he wanted to do it, he would throw a bombshell over there first, which would shock the old lady before saying something else!
Bang! Mrs. Ling slapped her heavily on the table and became furious! This incident has always been her heart disease. Her son and daughter-in-law have a strong relationship with each other, but she has not been in trouble since her marriage, which almost made the old couple's hair turn white. She just thought there was something shameful about her hidden disease, so she asked for prescriptions and medicine everywhere, but she didn't expect the reason to be here!
In an instant, all the things that had passed through the old lady's mind for several years. She thought that Ling Kong was very enthusiastic about the fact that there was no descendant of the Ling family. She personally arranged the doctor to treat his daughter-in-law. She continued to relieve her and Ling Zhan. She was so enthusiastic that she was a little too enthusiastic. Even if she heard that someone could treat this infertility disease, she would go thousands of miles to ask for medicine and seek medical treatment. Unexpectedly, she had such a vicious thought!
In the past, Mrs. Ling had always been grateful to Ling Kong, thinking that this adopted son knew how to repay kindness and had a good character. He had praised him many times in front of Ling Zhan! He said that he was smart and capable, and he was really a rare talent! But he never expected that this talent would almost cut off the Ling family's bloodline! If something hadn't happened for some reason, Ling Tian was born safely, and Ling Kong's conspiracy had been successful. And when everyone was kept in the dark, he had a brilliant victory!
Mrs. Ling was both ashamed and angry, and her heart and lungs almost burst into anger. She breathed a few breaths quickly and said, "So that's it! Humph, as long as the Ling family has no descendants, this large-scale business will sooner or later fall into the hands of Ling Zhen, the son of Ling Kong! It's a good plan! What a cruel method! Ling Kong! I need your whole family to die without a burial place!" The last sentence was almost hoarse.
