Chapter 12 The present is not the past

(Please collect.) "Auntie, it's okay for you to scold me. I am a junior and I don't care about this with you. But my mother has passed away. Even if there were any grudges during her lifetime, they should be wiped out. You are so vicious

Cursing my mother is really disrespectful. I hope you won't say these words again." Lin Jue's face turned cold and he said in a deep voice.

"I just scolded you, why? How dare you turn the world upside down? I just scold you, you are a stinking bitch, you seduce men, you are despicable and shameless."

A series of curse words came out of Jiang's squirming mouth. She didn't care about the feelings of the young man in front of her. In her opinion, the young man in front of her was not worth mentioning at all. A bastard, who had no one to rely on in the Lin family, actually

He dared to offend his son. This tone was unbearable. So although I came here to give money today, I actually made up my mind to make a big fuss. Besides, more than three hundred taels of silver would be enough.

It was really painful to give up to this bastard like a knife.

Lin Jue's face turned red when he heard Jiang's filthy words and insults. He clenched his fists and approached with eyes wide open, as if he was about to come up and hit someone. Jiang was startled and saw the young man rushing up with a fierce look on his face.

, was so frightened that he stepped back again and again.

"What are you going to do? Are you going to commit another crime? Jiao Da, what are you doing standing still? Why don't you come and stop me?" Although Qian was also startled, she relied on her high status to not be afraid of Lin Jue.

scolded.

The servant Jiao Daring on the side heard the words and hurriedly came over and stretched out his hand to pull Lin Jue. Lin Jue shouted angrily: "Get out of the way, do you want to die?"

Jiao Da was startled. Although Lin Jue was a concubine, he was still the master of the Lin family. In the eyes of a servant like him, he was still superior. Hearing this, he was stunned on the spot unconsciously.

Jiang was reminded by Qian's words, and stood up tall and shouted: "Lin Jue, do you still want to hit me? Okay, you can even hit your elders, you are so powerful. Okay, you won't do it today.

If you beat me to death, you are no longer a member of the Lin family. Go ahead and beat me. Mr. Qian, why don’t you call for help? Go and ask the head of the family to come. We have a rebellious son in the Lin family who dares to beat our elders. This is amazing."

Lin Jue stared at the ugly old woman and sneered: "Auntie, you should act like an elder. As an elder, you don't know how to respect yourself. No matter how old you are, what's the use of your seniority? You want to go with me?

Do you want to see the head of the family? Okay, then let's go and ask the head of the house to comment. You kicked open my courtyard door and cursed my late mother with obscene words, but you want to see if the head of the house will support you in doing so. To put it bluntly,

, you are just not angry with the master of the house. The master of the house asked you to return the monthly money to me, and you are not happy, so you come to me to make a fuss, but in fact you are dissatisfied with the master of the house. When you come to the master of the house, you want to see what the master of the house says?"

Jiang was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt that something was wrong with the situation. When he really came to the head of the family, Lin Jue shook off all the words he had just said. With the head of the family being so severe, he was afraid that he would rebuke him. Moreover, what this boy said was also very serious.

It makes sense, this is the order of the family leader. If you make such a fuss, you are actually dissatisfied with the family leader. How should you explain it in front of the family leader?

"From the moment you walked in, I treated you with courtesy. You said I was going to hit someone, but did I ever lay a finger on you? But aunt, you insulted me in every possible way and relied on me. What else did you say just now? You said

I still don’t know if you are a descendant of the Lin family. Your words not only insulted my mother and me, but also insulted my dead father. It also insulted the reputation of the Lin family. You can’t do it today if you don’t go see the head of the family. Let’s go.

Go see the head of the family for comment." Lin Jue shouted sharply.

Mrs. Jiang's face turned pale. She was so happy with scolding her just now that she just said these words happily. According to this boy, not only did she scold her late husband, but it also damaged the reputation of the entire Lin family. The head of the family cherished it the most.

If the reputation of the Lin family is gone, how can it fare well?

"I...when did you say this? You are lying." Jiang's voice was much softer, and she refused to admit it with a guilty conscience.

"I heard it clearly, and there are witnesses here. Lu Wu, did you hear it too?" Lin Jue turned to look at Lu Wu, who was trembling behind him. Lu Wu was so frightened by the scene in front of him that his face turned pale.

.

Jiang and Qian looked at Lu Wu with fierce eyes. That means, if you dare to talk nonsense, you will look good.

Lu Wu was so frightened that she didn't know what to do. She looked at Lin Jue and drew an inexplicable strength from his firm eyes, and shouted: "Master, I heard clearly. The old lady said those words.

After a while, when I arrived in front of the head of the family, Lu Wudan reported it truthfully."

"You little bitch..." Jiang cursed angrily.

Mrs. Qian hurriedly grabbed her and whispered in her ear: "Mother-in-law, stop making trouble. This bitch wants to make things worse. If he really makes trouble to the head of the family, he may not get anything good."

When Jiang saw Qian saying the same thing, she felt even more unsure. She glared at Lin Jue and said, "I am not as experienced as you. I have also returned the money to you. From now on, we will not owe each other any more. From today on, you

But don't get into my hands, otherwise don't blame me for being rude to you. You are not allowed to step into the big yard at the back. If you dare to take a step, your legs will be broken."

Lin Jue sneered and said: "You have always come to bully me, why have I ever provoked you? You don't recognize me, but I want to recognize you. As for breaking my legs and the like, I can treat it as an aunt's irritation. I don't

Go and provoke you, and you don’t come to provoke me. Let me tell you here, I, Lin Jue, am not someone to be bullied. If anyone is not discerning, don’t blame me for being rude. I will not report today’s matter to the head of the family. I hope

Don’t let it happen a second time.”

Jiang was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. He stared and stamped his feet, expecting to be insulted. Qian was keen on seeing the opportunity. He knew that if the trouble continued, he might really make trouble to the head of the family. Since Lin Jue no longer mentioned going to see the head of the house, he should hurry up.

The best thing to do was to leave. So he dragged the cursing Jiang to go.

The servant Jiao Da also hurriedly left with the two women, but was stopped by Lin Jue in a sharp voice.

"Stop, do you want to leave if it's so cheap?"

"Second Young Master, I didn't mess with you."

"You didn't offend me? Who kicked this courtyard door?" Lin Jue pointed to the cracked door panel and broken door bolt.

"This..." Jiao Da scratched his head and fell silent. Of course he kicked open the courtyard door. Jiang gave an order, and Jiao Da, who was carrying the wooden box, kicked open the courtyard door. He had been complacent for a while just now.

, because the kick was crisp and powerful, and very powerful.

"Ten taels of silver in compensation." Lin Jue shouted.

Jiao's thighs softened and he almost knelt on the ground.

"Second Young Master, where can I get ten taels of silver? My monthly salary is only two taels, which is not enough to drink."

"If you don't have any money, then go and repair it for me. In addition, if you come here to carry two tanks of water every day and work for a month, you will be considered as repaying it." Lin Jue shouted coldly.

Jiao Da breathed a long sigh of relief, nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, thank you for your magnanimity, Second Young Master. I will just obey."



While the servant Jiao Da, sweating profusely, was repairing the courtyard door, Lin Jue and Lu Wu were in a daze looking at a box full of money.

"So much silver. This is the first time Lu Wu has seen so much silver." Lu Wu blinked her big eyes and exclaimed with her little pink tongue sticking out.

After the death of Lin Jue's mother Wang, Lu Wu was actually the head of the small courtyard. At that time, Lin Jue was a young man who didn't care about anything, so all the monthly money was handed over to Lu Wu.

.But it sounds like it’s only ten taels of silver per month. Even though Lu Wu is good at living a prudent life, in fact, she can barely cope with ten taels of silver every month.

Different from ordinary people, although Lin Jue is a commoner, he is still the son of the third family. Ordinary people can mend their clothes if they are torn and wear them again, and there is no harm in putting patches on patches. But Lin Jue must be neatly dressed and groomed. He cannot

It’s a disgrace to the master’s family. Food should not be used too much, and extra expenses such as studying, buying books, pens, ink, paper, and inkstones are required. Therefore, ordinary people can support a family’s household expenses with two or three taels of silver a month. Lin Jue’s 10 taels

But there was not much money left. So when he saw these three hundred taels of silver, it was a huge sum of money, and Lu Wu was amazed.

"Old rules, I leave everything to you, you can spend it however you want." Lin Jue said with a smile.

"I...I don't know why I spent so much money. It's too...too...too much. I won't be able to sleep if I leave it at home." Lu Wu stuttered.

Lin Jue laughed and said: "I'll teach you how to spend money. First, go and cut some clothes for yourself and buy some pollen rouge cakes and the like. The clothes you are wearing are from three years ago. The lining has been mended a lot.

Patch it. Besides, you have grown up and your clothes no longer fit."

Lin Jue is telling the truth. In the past three years, most of the monthly money has been spent on Lin Jue. Originally, Green Dance also received one tael of monthly money. Three years ago, a few things were made when Wang was still alive.

The clothes have been worn for three years and don't fit. Lin Jue would never notice this in the past.

"It's okay... I can still wear my clothes. Besides, why did you buy those fragrant cakes and rouge? I don't want those. The old lady and the young lady will definitely scold me when they see me." Lu Wu held the corner of his clothes and lowered his head.

.

Lin Jue smiled and said: "What do they care about what they do? I like to see you dressed up beautifully. You are mine. I look at you when you are dressed up beautifully. I also have face when we go out together. You are wearing rags."

Yes, people think that I, Lin Jue, am stingy, mean and ill-treat you."

Lu Wu thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll buy two more clothes. I won't need rouge, gouache or anything like that. I don't need those."

Lin Jue nodded and said: "That's right. You are more beautiful than many people in life without applying makeup. Hibiscus blooming from clear water is more natural."

Lu Wu's face turned red. This was the first time that the young master praised her beauty in person. This was an unprecedented experience. Lu Wu's face was so hot that she didn't even dare to raise her head to look at Lin Jue. Her heart was pounding.

Tong was jumping wildly, fearing that Lin Jue would say something explicit again.

However, Lin Jue did not continue to embarrass the girl. He bit his lower lip and looked at the box of silver and muttered: "You are right. It is not safe to keep so much silver in the house. You leave twenty or thirty two dollars for the rest.

Let’s save all the money we have left in banks outside. Let’s see if there is any good business in the future and we can run it.”

Lu Wu was surprised and said: "Young Master wants to do business and open a shop?"

Lin Jue shook his head and said: "I don't want to do this, but as you can see, I don't have much to do in this family. We rely on the clan's twenty-two monthly income to survive, although this is what I deserve.

, but after all, people are short-handed and have bad eyesight. Have you not seen the embarrassment of the virtuous cousin in the outer house today, begging hard for three taels a month. Most of the rooms in our outer house rely on this

They live on a few taels of silver a month, so they have no freedom. I don’t want to do this. What if one day I am forced to bow my head or do something I don’t want to do for the sake of these 20 taels of silver a month? So what should I do? So I have to

Make a plan first.”

Lu Wu nodded slightly and said, "Young Master is right, I will listen to you."

Lin Jue smiled and said: "You are very brave today, you dare to contradict the aunt, sister-in-law and the others in person. I thought you didn't dare to speak."

Lu Wu pinched the corner of her clothes and whispered, "It's not okay for them to bully you."

No sentence is as touching as this simple sentence. From this sentence, Lin Jue can deeply feel Green Dance's love for him. This moved Lin Jue deeply. In this era, everything

None of them can be trusted by me, but I can trust this girl in front of me wholeheartedly.

"They will never bully you. Let me tell you again. Remember, as long as I am here, they will never bully us. I will not allow it." Lin Jue said in a low voice.

Lu Wu looked up at Lin Jue's eyes and nodded heavily.
