The village was quiet. Chu Yunli didn't meet many servants along the way. He walked all the way to the innermost room and saw from a distance a lamp like a bean in the main room. The windows were open. At a glance, he saw a man sitting at the table.
A middle-aged man with a sick face.
It was Sun Yanlan's uncle, Lin Zhishu.
She thought for a while, then climbed through the window and went in. Lin Zhishu, who was at the table, raised his head and saw it was her. He was a little surprised. After looking up and down, he said happily, "Yanlan?"
"It's really Yanlan!"
He was a little hesitant at first, but then he became convinced. Then he remembered that she came in through the window, and quickly went over to close the window. After a while, he said, "Yanlan, you have suffered so much. How have you lived these years? How could a good girl's family be turned upside down?"
Window?"
After a series of questions were thrown at him, Chu Yunli walked over to the table and sat down, "Uncle, this place is great. I came to visit during the day and they didn't let me in, so I had to climb in."
Lin Zhishu was silent again. Can't you blame her for climbing over the wall in the middle of the night? He reached out and poured her a cup of tea, "Why did you come to Hongcheng? Your aunt asked you to come see me?"
Chu Yunli took the tea, but was drunk. She raised her eyebrows and asked, "Hey, do you know she won't let me come?"
"She and your mother have been secretly dating each other since she was a child. If she doesn't like me, how can she let me get close to you?" Lin Zhishu finished speaking and took a few breaths.
Chu Yunli smelled the strong smell of medicine as soon as she entered the door. When she saw his appearance, she said, "I asked you why you didn't pick me up after all these years? You didn't ask me about my time at Zheng's house. It turns out you were sick."
Lin Zhishu smiled bitterly, "I'm sorry for you. When your father was seriously ill that day, I should have asked someone to pick you up. It's really...I was poisoned. I was weak and short of energy. I spent most of the time in a coma.
If you can't think too much in your brain, you are just a useless person, and you are really powerless."
There's really no way to blame this person. Chu Yunli came here to find a result. Is it because Lin Zhishu doesn't want to care about her, or because he can't care about her? Now it seems that it's the latter. In this case, Sun Yanlan should also be relieved.
Already.
"Why did you come to Hongcheng?" He asked again, "Is it your aunt..."
"She told me earlier that she wanted me to get married to Zheng Yanming. Last year, he got married to the daughter of the Minister of Rites, and she even tried to get me to consummate our marriage. My uncle owed a lot of gambling debts, but he couldn't even pay it back. He was even
I cut off one hand, and those people said they would chop off the legs if I didn’t pay back my debt. My aunt wanted to give me to someone else to pay off the debt..."
Lin Zhishu's face became even more ugly. Hearing this, he couldn't bear it anymore and threw the cup in his hand with a bang, "You bastard."
"You are indeed a bastard." Chu Yunli agreed, "That's why I left."
Lin Zhishu asked hurriedly, "Then where do you live now?"
"I found the things my father left behind, and my life is pretty good." Chu Yunli saw that after he was angry, her face quickly turned gray, which showed that the poisoning was serious. She stood up, "I should go back, and I will deliver medicine to you tomorrow.
Come."
Lin Zhishu was speechless, "It's a pity that I..."
Chu Yunli pressed his hand and touched his pulse without leaving a trace, "The Sun family has a secret detoxification recipe. Let's try it first."
Although Lin Zhishu did not help Sun Yanlan, this uncle was somewhat derelict in his duties, but if he was rescued, the current leader of the Lin family would definitely be hit. He would not be happy, and as his sister, Lin would be even more unhappy.
Fortunately, if Lin Zhishu could control the Lin family, then the Lin family would really have no way out.
After returning to the inn at night, Chu Yunli went to the medical clinic to get medicine the next day. Lin Zhishu was indeed deeply poisoned. He could only recuperate for so many years. He had no strength and could not get angry. He would get sick if he was upset and angry, but it seemed that
Her second uncle didn't want to kill him right away. The poison came on slowly, so he was able to survive for so many years. But now that he met her, after he recovered, it was still possible to live another ten or eight years.
After the shopkeeper bought the food and medicinal materials, Chu Yunli asked him to go back first. He stayed in Hongcheng and bought a small yard to live in. He delivered medicine to Lin Zhishu every few days. In the blink of an eye, a month passed and Lin Zhishu improved.
, although he still looked a little weak, he was no longer as frail as before. After he got slightly better, he returned to the Lin family. Within a few days, Lin Qi, the second master of the Lin family, fell ill.
His condition was critical, and he was soon sent to Zhuangzi to recuperate, the same Zhuangzi where Lin Zhishu originally lived.
Chu Yunli also went to see him and saw a man lying on the bed unable to get up. In fact, she didn't quite remember his face and had only seen him a few times.
She entered the door, and the person on the bed seemed to be aware of it. He turned his head and looked at her. He didn't look like a girl or someone he knew. He immediately asked, "Who are you?"
Chu Yunli sat down on the couch opposite him, "I haven't said hello to my second uncle yet."
Lin Qi's eyes were heavy and he said, "You are from the Sun family."
Chu Yunli held her chin up, "Looking at the second uncle's appearance, he doesn't seem to like me very much?"
Lin Qi sneered, "What? My sister doesn't treat you well?"
When he mentioned Lin's sister, his tone was not very good, which was surprising. Chu Yunli was curious, "You don't like your aunt, aren't you brothers and sisters from the same mother?"
"If she hadn't used a trick to defraud you and gave the one million taels of silver you brought to the Lin family, the Lin family would have been the richest family in Hongcheng." Lin Qi said in a crazy tone, "This damn woman has no clear mind.
, gave me two hundred thousand taels and sent me away. Last month she wrote a letter asking me to send her money..."
Chu Yunli didn't know this, "Then you gave it away?"
"Send it away. It's my sister after all. She said it's so miserable. How can I really not care?" He took a few breaths. "Actually, I'm not ruthless enough. Otherwise, why would I end up here today?"
Chu Yunli was speechless and said for a long time, "Didn't you deliberately let him keep his life to see you live a prosperous life?"
Lin Qi was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly, "She is indeed my sister's daughter. She is as smart as her. It's a pity that smart people don't live long. How do you think your mother died?"
Chu Yunli's face became cautious, "With my father here, how can you attack my mother even though you are hundreds of miles away?"
"Your mother was so close to us when she was not married." Lin Qi seemed to be a little crazy. "Her body has been drugged for a long time, making it difficult for her to get pregnant. Even if she does, if she wants to have a child... she can only live one. She
She has been smart since she was a child, and she has known this for a long time, but she still has to give birth to you... She is still smart, but I think she is stupid! No matter how rich your father is, he still can't save him... Hahahaha... Do you hate me very much...
You killed me..."
His eyes were provocative. Chu Yunli stepped forward slowly and put her hand on his neck. Suddenly remembering something, she felt for his pulse again and then smiled, "Are you like a thousand ants eating your body now? Every moment of your life is a torment."
, so itchy that you want to die immediately? You still want me to kill you, but you don’t dare to die yourself, right?"
"I won't kill you, you can live well!"
Chu Yunli walked out of the room, followed by Lin Qi's painful cry.
Two days later, Mr. Lin Er, who had been sent to Zhuangzi for training, was gone.
White flags were hung inside and outside the Lin family. Chu Yunli had originally planned to return to the capital, but now she couldn't leave. In any case, she was her niece, so she still wanted to express condolences in front of the funeral. As for the Lin family in the capital,
Don't you have to rush back for the funeral?
Lin Qi had this sister. Mrs. Lin would not let her be buried no matter what. She had to wait until Lin came back. She did not target Chu Yunli as her niece, but she did not pay much attention to her. However, she treated her as a stranger.
During the wake, she barely concealed the hatred in Lin Zhishu's eyes.
Lin Zhishu had no children, but Lin Qi had both children. She was older than Chu Yunli. That cousin was already married, and she was married in Hongcheng. On the day Lin Qi died, she got the news and rushed back, making a scene.
After a while, she kept saying that her father's death was caused by Lin Zhishu's murder. She even went to report it to the magistrate. The magistrate came with his wife for inspection and found out that Lin Qi was suffering from cold and high fever. Everything was normal and nothing suspicious was found.
The place.
The weather here was hot. After a few days, even though there were many ice basins placed in the mourning hall, a strange smell gradually came out. Finally, half a month later, Lin from the capital rushed to Hongcheng with his family.
He cried as soon as he entered the house, and he hugged Mrs. Lin and his niece and cried. It was really sad to hear this.
When Lin arrived, the prefect over there couldn't find anything strange, so he couldn't let it go anymore, so he chose a day to bury her.
Originally, Chu Yunli was going back to Beijing, but now that the Zheng family is here, she doesn't panic anymore and will wait for her return.
The Lin family was wealthy, and there had been funerals these days. The food and clothes at home were all plain. Except for her second aunt who cried so hard that she fainted and called for a doctor a few times, the days were relatively peaceful. In the blink of an eye, the first seven days passed, the rituals were completed at night, and the servants were there.
After cleaning up the mourning hall and Lin Zhishu asked everyone to go back to rest, Mrs. Lin stood up and said, "Wait a minute."
Since Lin Qi's death, she spent most of her time at the mourning hall, and was busy asking the prefect to find out the cause of Lin Qi's death. During this period, she fainted several times. At this time, she was dressed in plain clothes, with a plain face, and thick green hair under her eyes.
It was tied with only a plain ribbon, making her look even more haggard.
But she stood upright, supported by her daughter and daughter-in-law, with a solemn look on her face, "Brother, my husband is gone, how do you plan to arrange for us?"
Lin Zhishu's face was equally serious, "Even if my second brother is gone, you are still the Lin family. As long as the Lin family is here, you can live here. If I have something to eat, you will not be hungry..."
Mrs. Lin sneered, "The Lin family is such a big family, so it turns out that the eldest brother just raised our family like pigs?"
"What do you want?" Lin Zhishu asked in a deep voice.
"Separate the family!" This sentence was said by Lin Qi's eldest son Lin Zhili. He paused and continued, "There are no outsiders here. Everyone understands that my father did not die of illness. My uncle separated our family.
So that we don’t have to worry about it.”
"Then tell me how your father died?" Lin Zhishu looked serious, "I have been sick in Zhuangzi for so many years, and why? You are in the first year of junior high school, so don't blame me for being in the fifteenth year."
Mrs. Lin frowned, "Brother, let me be fair, this family still needs to be divided..."
Lin Zhishu raised his hand to interrupt her, "What you said is unfair. Besides, how have you treated Yan Lan for so many years? I haven't got around to settling the score with you yet. Who gave you the courage to let you
Are you coming back to interfere with the Lin family?"
Zheng Yanming blocked Mr. Lin and said solemnly, "Uncle, there is a king's law in this world."
"What, you want to come back and separate the families?" Lin Zhishu smiled half-heartedly.
Lin took it for granted, "I should have a share of what dad left behind!"
