Mei Baoqing's behavior is like a mystery. Lu Yan didn't find out anything, and Lin Jinrong didn't find out anything. Zhang Shanniang said of Mei Baoqing: "He is the most slippery person. How much money does he have? Everyone knows."
It’s hard to estimate, but I guess he must be very, very rich.”
Too much money will bite your hand. This is the truth. In Mei Baoqing's shop, ordinary gangsters do not dare to look for trouble, but there are always big gangsters that he cannot afford to provoke. Once they find him, there will be no end.
trouble. So Mei Baoqing sent his only biological sister to
Whether in the palace, making friends everywhere, or wanting to make friends with people like Lu Yan, it is all just for self-protection. If it is limited to this mode of communication, neither far nor near, it will not have much impact on Lin Jinrong and Lu Yan.
, what I’m afraid of is that he has other agendas.
Lin Jinrong thought about it for more than ten days, but did not see any follow-up actions from Mei Baoqing, so he could only put it down. At this time, Pingzhou's letter from home arrived. Lin Jinrong couldn't help but sneered after reading Lin Yuzhen's letter. At this time, it was
think
She came, she raised her eyes and looked out the window. The sun hung high in the sky, white light was reflected on the courtyard wall, and heat waves rushed into the house. If there was no need for ice, even if she was wearing a very thin gauze dress, she could move slightly.
If you move, you will get hot and sweat.
This kind of weather made her take Yilang, who was a little more than two months old, on the road. You can imagine what would happen on the road. She was fine, but what about Yilang? Lin Jinrong looked back and looked at Dou'er lying in the cradle.
Yilang was teasing Yiyi, and a sense of resentment arose spontaneously. He wished that Lu Yan would appear in front of her immediately and resolve the matter quickly.
After finally waiting until Shenshi, when Lu Jin was about to return home, Yingying came in and said, "Grandma, the second master sent someone back to say that someone invited him to dinner and he will probably come back very late. Please don't wait for him and rest first."
Lin Jinrong breathed a sigh of relief and could only endure it: "Tell the concierge that if the second master comes back, no matter how late it is, let him come to me."
Cherry agreed and stepped back. Lin Jinrong picked up Lin Yuzhen's letter and read it carefully again. After all, Lin Yuzhen came from a scholarly family. She was a person who played chess, calligraphy and painting in elementary school. This letter was written with great effort and emotion.
From filial piety, longing, pity,
Interests and other general directions came to persuade Lu Yan and her, but these were secondary. The most important thing was that Lin Yuzhen took up the banner of Mrs. Lu. Mrs. Lu was in poor health and might not be alive at any time. It was very important that she
Longing to meet Yilang.
Mr. Lu was seriously ill, and the situation in the Lu family was very complicated. Lin Yuzhen was outnumbered and her life was difficult. Fangzhu made it clear in her letter, but all the reasons could not compare with the last word "filial piety". As a junior, especially
For a person like Lu Mian who has been greatly favored by Mrs. Lu, it is not wrong and appropriate to fulfill the small wish of a seriously ill old man. This is filial piety and must be followed.
But many times, knowing the truth of something and personally accepting and completing it are two completely different things. Lin Jinrong knew very well how important Mr. Lu was in Lu Yan's mind. She wanted to know which one Lu Yan would choose. She thought of
When I saw the original Jiang Shen Temple, a long-lost emotion came over me like a tide.
Lu Mian did not return home until nearly three o'clock in the morning. As soon as he entered the door, he was stopped by the concierge: "Second Master, grandma asks you to go to the main courtyard when you come back."
Lu Mian looked at the sky and saw that it was already very late. Lin Jinrong rarely let people tell him this, and it was probably because they had serious business. He suppressed the rising drunkenness and rushed to the main room as quickly as possible. Sure enough, the room was still lit.
As soon as he appeared in the corridor after turning on the light, Yingying and others had already informed Lin Jinrong in the room and brought sobering soup and hot water.
"Arong, what's the matter?" Lu Yan felt Lin Jinrong's unusual silence. He was used to Lin Jinrong telling him the day's trivial matters in a soft voice after returning home. How was Yilang? Who came to visit again? She
He accepted someone's invitation and went to play somewhere, what fun things happened, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law next door were having conflicts again, what delicious food was cooked, etc. He was not used to such silence.
Lin Jinrong handed him Lin Yuzhen's letter without saying a word.
Even if Lu Yan drank a little too much, he knew that she was in a bad mood. When he took the letter, he recognized it was Lin Yuzhen's handwriting. He couldn't help being startled. He was half awake from the wine. He was afraid that it was unfortunate news, so he opened it with trembling hands.
Looking at it, the frowning eyebrows slowly flattened, then wrinkled again in annoyance.
Lin Jinrong looked at him quietly without saying a word.
Lu Yan raised his eyes and looked at Lin Jinrong, and met a pair of uniquely deep eyes. There was an emotion he didn't understand in those eyes, which seemed to be filled with a sneer and scrutiny, but also seemed to hold some hope.
Somewhat embarrassed: "Ah Rong."
Lin Jinrong didn't speak, just looked at him quietly, waiting for him to finish.
Lu Yan didn't like Lin Jinrong's look. He wanted to discuss it with her and find an effective way to solve the matter, instead of being looked at by her like this. He was very embarrassed. He knew how hot the weather was.
, Lin Jinrong had just recovered, and Yilang was too young. It was really uneasy to travel without him to protect him. What if... He shuddered and sighed secretly.
However, the grandfather who was so kind to him, the grandfather who supported him when he was most confused and helpless, the grandfather who taught him how to walk, the grandfather who encouraged him time and time again, and gave him opportunities time and time again. The grandfather who was old and healthy
Weak, may disappear from this world at any time
The lost grandfather has such a small wish. He just wants to see his long-awaited great-grandson, or it is out of flesh and blood. Can he refuse to agree? Can he bear it? If Mr. Lu's wish cannot be realized, I'm afraid he will
I will feel guilty for the rest of my life.
Lin Jinrong's thoughts are obviously different from his. Compared with Mr. Lu's wishes, she is obviously more concerned about Yilang's health and feels more sorry for Yilang. It's understandable, but they can't find a perfect solution. Without being disturbed by family affairs, they feel relaxed.
More than many years later, Lu Mian once again felt in a dilemma and could only keep silent.
The candlelight flickered gently, illuminating Lu Yan's eyes with sadness. Lin Jinrong took a breath and said, "What do you think of Min Xing?" If Lu Yan had to make that decision, she would not agree to it, and she would not agree to let her suffer.
Yilang, who had worked so hard to give birth, would not be able to do it even once in such a situation, so she would not obey him. Between Mrs. Lu and Yilang, she would only choose Yilang.
It would be nice if the road was closer, it would be nice if Yilang was older, if...but there are not so many ifs in life. Fantasy is fantasy, and what should be faced must still be faced, Lu Yan said worriedly
: "A Rong, grandfather..."
The light in Lin Jinrong's eyes flashed and gradually faded: "Grandpa treats you with great kindness." She already knew his choice.
Lu Yan nodded: "Yes." If Mr. Lu hadn't always been behind him to support him, he wouldn't have the life he has now, including Lin Jinrong, which Mr. Lu had fought for for him. He hadn't had time to fulfill his filial piety, so he had no reason.
Unsatisfied with Mrs. Lu's wish, he thought hesitantly, if the weather gets cooler, the road goes slower, and mother and son are properly taken care of, maybe it won't be a serious problem.
Just as he was about to speak, Lin Jinrong stood up and said in an irrefutable tone: "I am not afraid of hardship, and I am also willing to fulfill my filial piety and gain a good reputation, but my Yilang is too young. Such
Due to the weather, I am reluctant to let him drive such a long way, and I am not willing to take the risk. So I will not agree." Baishan Filial Piety Comes First
, back then, no matter how heartbroken and intolerable she was, she would probably have agreed with tears. But after that incident, would she still put Yilang in such a dangerous situation and risk Yilang's health?
No. Even if she had a big fight with Lu Mian or broke up with the Lu family, she wouldn't. She wouldn't even be accused of being unfilial by her second wife.
"Arong, don't be like this. Let's discuss it carefully. There will always be a way." Lu Yan knew that she was unhappy, and he understood and could sympathize with it, but he never thought that she would use such a decisive attitude. He was a little angry and sad, but
He also knew that he couldn't get angry at her. This was the normal attitude of a mother who wanted to protect her child, but he was really in trouble. Yilang was his flesh and blood, and Mrs. Lu was also his grandfather. If Tao made such a request,
What will happen to Lin Jinrong?
He didn't need to explain it too clearly. Everyone knew the truth, but it was just about what they could do and what they couldn't do. After a long time, Lin Jinrong turned his head and said calmly: "It's not impossible for me to take Yilang back first, but I have to wait until autumn."
If everything remains unchanged, Mrs. Lu will die in September, and she can take the first step in August.
Lu Yan stood up silently and walked behind the screen to wash up.
Lin Jinrong sat in silence for a moment, then stood up and walked to the bed, slowly took off his coat and lay down gently.
After a long time, Lu Yan came out, stood in front of the bed and said, "Arong..."
Lin Jinrong didn't say anything. She knew that everyone was in trouble, but she still felt aggrieved and didn't want to pay attention to him.
Lu Yan waited for a while, but when he couldn't get a response, he sighed softly, blew out the lamp, and lay down next to Lin Jinrong softly.
That night, both of them slept poorly. When it was almost five o'clock in the morning, Lin Jinrong vaguely heard Lu Yan get up and call softly in her ear: "Arong?"
Lin Jinrong pretended not to hear.
Lu was silent for a moment, put on his clothes rustlingly, and left. He walked to the yard, and there were a few cold stars twinkling on the horizon. The yard was quiet and peaceful, with only the sound of the wind blowing through the grape leaves. There were twinkling lights in the east wing.
Under the dim light, Yilang's cry and Pan's coaxing could be vaguely heard.
Lu Yan couldn't control his feet and headed towards the east wing, but he knew it was too early for him to enter the room, so he just stood under the window and listened. If Yilang was not allowed to see Mr. Lu, he would have a lot of trouble
He felt a heavy sense of guilt, but if he let Yilang take this trip, he would be extremely heartbroken and couldn't bear it. It was a dilemma.
