On the night of September 21st, after dinner, Lin Jue sat under the window and polished the script of "The Romance of the West Chamber". He remembered the outline of the story and some classic arias, but in terms of lines, dialogue, scenes, lighting, costumes and other aspects, he
In terms of details, Lin Jue needs to think carefully. Lin Jue feels that he is like an omnipotent person in the crew. He is responsible for writing, directing, props, lighting, etc., which actually fulfills his dream of being a director in his life on earth.
It's just that there is no way to hide the number of actresses, otherwise it would be a real director.
While she was meditating, there was a knock on the door to the courtyard outside. Lu Wu hurriedly went out and opened the door, only to see the housekeeper Zhao Liancheng standing in front of the door with several servants carrying lanterns.
"Zhao...Housekeeper Zhao?" Lu Wu was a little panicked. Very few people came to this small courtyard, especially those in the main house. The housekeeper only came here a few times throughout the year. He was inexplicably worried about the people in the main house.
Fearful, Lu Wu vaguely felt that something was wrong.
"Lvwu, is Mr. Lin Jue in the house?" Zhao Liancheng asked with a smile.
"Here...here, please come to Butler Zhao's house." Lu Wu said hurriedly.
"Oh, that's no need. Go and tell Mr. Lin Jue to come with us, and tell us that we want to see him." Zhao Liancheng said with a smile.
"Family...Master?" Lu Wu became even more panicked. She felt that something was going to happen again. She had only been stable for a few days, but she didn't know what was going to happen.
"Go quickly. The master of the house is waiting." Zhao Liancheng frowned and shouted.
Lu Wu hurriedly turned around, entered the room and closed the door. Lin Jue was writing while holding a pen, and asked without raising his head: "Who is here? Are they your little sisters?
Want to have a private chat with you?"
Lu Wu stepped forward and hugged Lin Jue's arm. Lin Jue turned around and saw Lu Wu's face turned pale under the light.
"What's wrong?" Lin Jue put the brush on the pen holder and put his arms around her waist.
"No, the master wants to see you. Zhao Liancheng is waiting for you at the gate of the courtyard and wants you and him to meet the master." Lu Wu said with a tearful voice.
Lin Jue was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "If the master wants to see me, I will just go see him. Why do you look like this?"
Lu Wu said with difficulty: "Sir, Lu Wu thinks something is going to happen, Lu Wu is very scared."
Lin Jue laughed and said, "What's going to happen? You're so frightened, you just said something. I'll come as soon as I go, don't think too much. What a pitiful little person."
Lin Jue stretched out his hand and scratched Lu Wu's nose, stood up and said with a smile: "Bring me your coat, I'll put it on and go see the head of the family."
Lu Wu hurriedly took out a long coat and put it on for Lin Jue, her hands were shaking when she was buttoning the buttons. Apparently, the tension in her heart had not gone away. Lin Jue thought it was a little funny, so he held her face and kissed her to comfort her.
After saying a few words, he opened the door and went out into the yard.
"Master Lin Jue, are you still okay? The head of the family is waiting." Zhao Liancheng stood at the door of the courtyard and called, he was getting impatient with the waiting.
Lin Jue walked over slowly and said with a smile: "Housekeeper Zhao, can't you wait any longer? Is this something urgent? Even if the sky falls, Steward Zhao can't be in such a hurry. You can't be in such a hurry."
In such a hurry, how can we keep the maids and servants below safe?"
When Zhao Liancheng met Lin Jue, he did not dare to neglect the etiquette. He bowed and said: "I have met the young master. It's not me who is anxious, but the master of the house who is anxious. Aren't I afraid that the master of the house will be anxious while waiting? It's not like the sky is falling.
Even if it collapses, won’t there still be the head of the house and other heads of the house to bear it? We are just running errands.”
Lin Jue chuckled and said, "The chief butler may think of himself too lowly. I, the chief butler of the Lin family, am always called "Master" when he leaves the Lin residence."
Zhao Liancheng smiled and said: "Thank you for the compliment, young master. Without further ado, let's go this way. The master of the house is waiting in the front hall."
Lin Jue stretched out his hand and said: "Then please."
Four young men, two in front and two in back, held lanterns and sandwiched Lin Jue and Zhao Liancheng between them. They turned and left. Lu Wu stood at the door of the courtyard and called out: "Young Master!"
Lin Jue turned around and waved his hand: "Go back and ask Xiaohu to close the courtyard door. You can go to bed early so you don't have to wait for me."
After saying that, he turned around and strode away. Green Dance held her little hands tightly, and after watching the lanterns circling the courtyard wall from a distance, she returned to the courtyard and locked the gate.
…
The lights in the front hall of Lin's house were bright, but in the huge hall, there was only Lin Boyong sitting alone. He sat quietly in the big mahogany chair beside the table, holding a jade toad's toy in his hand. His eyes were thoughtful.
Lin Jue stepped into the hall door and was surprised to see Lin Boyong alone in the hall. He originally thought that he was not the only one invited. Maybe it was a family matter that required him to attend, but now it seems that it is not the case. Lin Jue also felt that something was wrong. Thinking about Lu Wu's reaction just now, Lin Jue suddenly felt that he had been so comfortable recently that he had become a little carried away and lost his sense of danger. Lu Wu was the one who was there before the disaster. A sensitive little animal that senses danger. I just laughed at her. Maybe her hunch is correct.
"My nephew has met the master of the family." When Lin Boyong looked up, Lin Jue stepped forward and saluted.
Lin Boyong nodded and made a gesture, and the hall door was slammed shut. Lin Jue felt increasingly that something big had happened.
"Sit down, the tea you just brewed is still hot." Lin Boyong's attitude was very easy-going.
Lin Jue thanked him and slowly sat down, looking at Lin Boyong.
"Don't be nervous. I called you here because I wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk with you. Speaking of which, as your uncle, I haven't had a good heart-to-heart conversation with your nephew. I'm also busy with family affairs, so I didn't find the opportunity. I'm really ashamed. Very.”
"What did the head of the family say? The head of the house supports the Lin family's business and has a heavy burden on his shoulders. Hundreds of people have their mouths open to eat. The head of the house has many things to do and his feet are not touching the ground. How can he still have extra time? On the other hand, my nephew is extremely ashamed because he failed to take care of the family master's worries." Lin Jue said with a smile.
Lin Boyong nodded slightly and said: "What you said is quite inspiring. It shows that you are sensible. Although you are a concubine of three wives, I can tell you from my heart. Among the young masters of several wives, I am particularly optimistic about you."
Lin Jue smiled and said nothing, and thought to himself: "What you said is too false. Do you mean it? Do you think I am a three-year-old child?"
"I told you that you may not believe it. When you were born, your parents invited Taoist Qin from Tianlong Temple to tell your fortune by touching your bones. Taoist Qin said that you looked like a rich man. That Taoist Qin was from the city of Hangzhou. You are a half-immortal who is famous for his accurate fortune-telling. Since then, I have placed high hopes on you. Your name is Lin Jue, I gave you this name for you, do you know?" Lin Boyong said solemnly. .
Lin Jue was a little surprised. He didn't know these things. The memory of his childhood and the origin of this name were not at all in the memory in his skin. And with his soul attached to it, the memories he knew were only in his skin. The original skin can't remember it, and of course I have no way of knowing.
"The Awakened One, Enlightenment. I gave you this name because I hope that you will achieve great enlightenment and achieve great success in the future. Moreover, it also means that when you were a child, you refused to sleep peacefully. When others were asleep, you still kept your eyes open.
Your eyes never sleep. When your father talked to me about this, he said that you never slept in the spring and didn't sleep all night long. Therefore, this name also suits you." Lin Boyong chuckled.
Lin Jue's heart suddenly felt warm. He had never felt such a warm feeling in this home. Lin Boyong sitting in front of him was a kind elder in the family at this moment, not a stern head of the family.
This is the first time I have encountered this situation. I sat and listened to Lin Boyong talk about what happened when he was a child. Although this was not my own personal experience, it resonated with me emotionally.
"Thank you, my master, for giving me this nephew's name. He will definitely be a man of enlightenment and enlightenment." Lin Jue said.
Lin Boyong glanced at Lin Jue indifferently and said in a deep voice: "It's been so long since these things happened. You are already eighteen years old. In the blink of an eye, eighteen years have passed. I am so old that I am about to die. Third brother
It has been ten years since your death. Your mother has also passed away five years ago. Time flies and makes people grow old. This life is too short."
Lin Jue didn't know how to interrupt. Lin Boyong seemed to be in a state of emotion, and his body in black robe also revealed a hint of aging and helplessness. His whole aura was a little weaker.
"Lin Jue, you were only eight years old when your father passed away. In the past ten years, I have failed to fulfill my responsibilities and failed to fulfill the responsibility that your father entrusted to me, asking me to take good care of and educate you. I feel deeply ashamed. I
I thought that I only need to feed you, clothe you, and make you study and make progress, but I neglected to communicate with you frequently and teach you the principles of life. These are all my fault. This year’s Day, I will
Apologize in front of your father and ask him to forgive me."
Lin Jue's heart tightened, and Lin Boyong changed the subject. There were many other meanings in his words. What did he mean by not educating himself well? The implication was that he was already an uneducated person. Could it be that...
…
"The head of the family does not have to be like this. My father's spirit in heaven will definitely be grateful to the head of the house. If it were not for the support of the head of the house, how could my nephew be an adult? My nephew is already eighteen years old and has grown up. The head of the house has also fulfilled his duties." Lin Jue responded calmly.
road.
"No! I did not fulfill my duties and did not complete the instructions given by your father." Lin Boyong's voice turned cold in an instant.
"Otherwise...otherwise, how could you be like this? How could you ignore the Lin family's rules and do so many things that harm the family and disrupt the mansion? How could you ignore the Lin family's blood and family interests and do so many things?"
Are you ignoring the things that put the Lin family in danger of destruction?" Lin Boyong shouted sharply with sharp eyes.
