Chapter 86: Firm maintenance

Lin Buxian woke up before dawn, and suddenly there was no one around him, so it was not easy to sleep (Shui).
Recently, it has been a bit cold, but before the ignition pot, Yunan's body temperature is higher than that of Lin's unenviable, and (sleeping Shui) looks bad, and (sleeping Shui) always likes to accidentally stick to Lin Bu Xian's side was like a warm stove, especially after autumn, the existence of Yunan made Lin Buxian (sleeping Shui) very stable.
Even if Miss Lin Si has never confided (exposed).
When Lin Buxian opened her eyes, she felt a moment of coldness, and subconsciously stretched out her hand to explore the position next to her. The cold touch instantly dispelled Miss Lin Si's (sleeping Shui) intention. She opened her eyes and turned her head to look. The place beside him was empty.
Miss Lin Si was stunned for a while, and sat up on the bed, her long green hair draped behind her head, looking at the half-black, empty bedroom, speechless for a long time.
I flashed the secret report of "One Hundred Thousand Urgent" last night in my mind, and it said that Yun'an had bid three thousand taels for the fine oiran jade.
Three thousand taels was nothing but a drop for Lin Mansion. As long as they were famous, let alone three thousand taels, even if Yunan spent 300,000 taels at a time, he would not feel distressed. But this seems to be the first time Yunan used the power to withdraw cash from the jade pendant after receiving the jade pendant, but it was used in this place.
The shell teeth slid across the lower lip, leaving a shallow mark on it. Lin Buxian felt like his heart was held by something, and his mouth seemed to be pressed against a big stone, and his breathing was not smooth. Up.
Miss Lin Si jumped out of the bed with her shoes, and put on the outer shirt on the screen from memory. She walked to the window and opened the window. The sky was (exposed) white.
A puff of white smoke floated from Miss Lin Si’s mouth, and was scattered by the morning breeze. Miss Lin Si felt the bone-chilling coolness and went down the neckline and cuffs into her body, but it was only loose. The ground was draped in an outer shirt, without pulling it tight.
...
This night, Li Yuan talked about many things with Yunan. From feelings to family background, Yunan knew that even though Li Yuan came from a family, he also had his own sadness.
He is the third son in the family, and both of his elder brothers have official positions, and he is deeply loved by his parents.
Theoretically speaking, the eldest son of Li Mansion has become a sect, and the second son opened up branches and leaves for the family. The existence of his third son is insignificant. With two outstanding brothers as benchmarks, Li Yuan seems to have walked all the way. Nothing is right, and Li Qingshan is often reprimanded.
Li Yuan used Jiu Jin’er and Yun’an to show off a lot. He talked about Li’s past and some old things about Ning’s palace. Li Yuan said: When he was a child, King Ning’s cousin treated him very well. It's not that there is a cousin who said something nicely in the middle, and I don't know what will be disgusted by my father.
In the end Li Yuan was drunk, and it dawned.
Yun'an helped Li Yuan up and arranged him to a nearby inn. After tossing all night, Yun'an was very tired, but she wanted to go back to Lin Mansion.
Talk to Lin Buxian and have breakfast with her.
Yun An called a carriage and headed straight for Lin Mansion.
...
After entering the Lin Mansion through the back door, the housemaid in the mansion has performed his duties and started a new day of work.
Yunan sniffed his body, the strong powdery taste and the taste of wine. Lin Buxian would definitely not like it. He turned to Tangchi and came to the door and ordered the maid to go to the room and get a set of change for himself. When the clothes came, they went into the soup pond.
When the maid went to pick up the clothes, Lin Buxian was dressing up. Naturally, he knew that Yun'an had returned to the house. After learning that Yun'an had returned to the house, the first thing was to take a shower. Lin Buxian straightened his waist and looked on his face. Although unchanged, his eyes were cold.
Lin Buxian looked at herself in the bronze mirror and said lightly: "When you go to send a change of clothes, ask her by the way, if you want to take some physical effort, or want to go to the Buddhist hall to copy the scriptures, and report to you as soon as possible."
"Yes!" The maid bowed to Lin Buxian, holding the changed clothes, and exited the bedroom.
The maid took the order. The soup pool in Lin Mansion is very large. There are two huge screens outside the pool. The inside cannot be seen from the outside. The maid hung the changed clothes on the screen and called out, "My uncle, the maid ordered the slave Come."
"what's up?"
"The young lady ordered the slave and maidservant to ask my uncle. Does my uncle want to work hard or go to the Buddhist hall to copy the scriptures."
Hearing the words "copy the scriptures", Yun An opened her eyes in an instant. She knew that she made such a big movement. Mother Lin would definitely not be able to pass the test, and she would have to be beaten, but when she heard Lin Buxian's meaning, could it be Are there other options?
Yun'an is not afraid of physical exertion or something, so he can exercise his body and relax his muscles and bones. It is really tiring to copy the scriptures. I have a sore back and cramps in my wrists and fingers.
So Yunan chose "physical effort" without hesitation.
The maid took the order, Yunan soaked for a while, (sleeping Shui) did not dare to soak the clothes again, wiped (dry gan) (body shen) body, changed into (dry gan) clothes and went out of the soup pool.
As soon as he opened the door of Tangchi, Yunan saw Rui'er guarding the door.
"Sister Ruier, why are you here? Where is Yixi?"
Rui'er bowed to Yun'an and replied: "Auntie, the lady ordered a slave and maid to take her to the small ancestral hall."
Yun An was puzzled and asked, "What did I go to the ancestral hall early in the morning? Did I miss any important day?" Today is not the fifteenth day of the new year. What should I do to the ancestral hall?
Rui Er glanced at Yun'an and said in a low voice: "Miss said, I will know if my aunt just goes there."
"okay."
An ominous premonition faintly rose in Yun An's heart, but he felt that Lin Buxian shouldn't be able to do it so absolutely. Without a word, he followed Rui'er all the way to the ancestral hall.
When I entered the small ancestral hall, I did not see Lin Buxian's figure. Yun An felt a trace of disappointment in his heart. Rui Er stopped outside the door and said to Yun An, "The futon is under the altar, please take it yourself."
Yun An's eyes widened and said, "Is this making me kneel?"
Rui'er lowered her eyes, avoided looking at Yun'an, and replied: "Miss said, this is your choice for my uncle, and the young lady also said... If my uncle is unwilling, there are scriptures waiting in the temple. you."
Yun An was silent for a moment, and asked, "This is what your lady meant?"
"Yes."
"I see. Sister Ruier, please help me close the door, thank you."
Rui'er went for a good luck and helped Yun'an close the door of the small ancestral hall. The room was lit with a bright light, and it was not dark. It was just a row of seats for some people.
Yun An sighed, resignedly took out a futon from under the altar and put it on his knees.
Copying scriptures in the Buddhist halls is also copying while kneeling, and the amount of labor in the ancestral hall is reduced by half.
Thinking of what Lin Buxian ordered the maid to ask him, Yun'an couldn't help but said in a low voice: "Kneeling is punished for kneeling, and it takes some physical strength to say that it is really..."
Yun'an looked up at the rankings above, and said in his heart: "The ancestors of the Lin family, the younger generation strayed into this time and space, formed the reed Yixi, and entered the Lin Mansion is also considered a fate. I hope that before I leave, I can Do something for Yixi. I know how difficult it is for women in this era. If I kneel this way, it will be worthwhile for Yixi to suffer less criticism."
Yun An loves Lin Buxian, a son-in-law goes to the brothel to redeem his body for the oiran, and the pressure of public opinion is almost always on Lin Buxian.
But there are some things that you must do for the sake of the overall situation, and there is not much time left for yourself.
Yun'an even wondered how to spread the matter of Lin Buxian "punishing" himself for kneeling in the ancestral hall to the outside, so that some people outside would feel that it was his son-in-law who didn't know how to advance or retreat, and he was acting nonsense. Only accept everything.
Yun'an lowered his head, and he didn't know what he thought of, (hook gou) the corner of his mouth.
Yun An knelt in the small ancestral hall all morning. She hadn't (sleeping in Shui) all night last night. She drank a lot of alcohol. She was a little weak and no one came to bring her food. Yun'an (touching Mo) had an empty stomach. Posing his lips, some resentment.
On the other side, Lin Buxian has been with Madam Lin after breakfast.
Lin Buxian knew very well: Yun'an had openly ransomed the oiran in the Misty Mansion. Sooner or later, his mother would know about it. Although her mother rarely gets involved in foreign affairs, she also has her own news channels. Lin Buxian decided to retreat. Enter, first put down the bedding cloth before this, and solve the follow-up blame.
Regarding this incident, Lin Buxian's heart was far less calm than the expression on her face, but she would never allow her anger to affect her mind. Some things belonged to both herself and Yunan, even if it was her own. It’s better to have less (dry gan) involvement for your parents.
Mrs. Lin took the peeled orange from Lin Buxian and ate it in her mouth, and asked, "Why didn't An'er come to please this morning?"
"The Xiang Gong violated the family law, and the daughter asked her to go to the small ancestral hall to reflect."
Mrs. Lin frowned and asked, "What the is going to the small ancestral hall?"
"Last night, the Xianggong and the third brother of the Li family went to the Misty Building, and heard the report from the people below that the Xianggong had spent some money to redeem a favorite girl for the third brother of Li."
After listening to Mrs. Lin's silence for a while, she asked, "An'er and Li Yuan seem to be together often? Li Yuan also testified about the Yamen last time, right?"
"Well, my daughter heard from Xianggong: When she was in despair, Li San's brother gave her a lot of attention, and the two were friends in need. Although this time was to help Li San's wish, he still violated the family law. , The daughter invited the grandfather to the small ancestral hall."
"Then... Has An'er stayed overnight in the brothel?"
Lin Buxian shook his head, never hesitated for a moment, even she did not have definite evidence.
Mrs. Lin sighed and replied after thinking about it: "Since I have not stayed overnight, I am repaying the kindness. I think it is better to punish me. Your father and I are the only daughter like you. Wait for me and your father. A hundred years later, you still have to support each other with An'er. Although he is the son-in-law who has come to the family, he is already regarded as a half son in the mother's heart. You...Don't do too much in everything, if you stay Sorry, isn’t you the one who will suffer in the future? The reason why my mother said this is to see that An'er is not bad in character (sexual xing). If there is anything wrong with you on weekdays, you should talk to your mother first. Let my elders come forward to alert him. Don’t focus on those cold accounts, stay with An'er and don’t be too cold. Waiting for you to give birth to a boy and a half daughter, mother. Don't worry."
Lin Buxian lowered his eyes and replied, "My mother taught me that."
Mrs. Lin looked at the sky and said, "After noon, you go to the small ancestral hall in person, put An'er out, eat lunch with him, and talk to each other. The life between husband and wife should be slow Slowly, slowly. Look at your father. You are getting older. Haven't you been fascinated by the woman sent by His Royal Highness King Ning recently? Fortunately, your mother has you. Now you are in charge of the family business, your father... When one is old, the heirs are also... he can do whatever he wants. After you have your own heirs, and when the children grow up, life will be truly stable."
"Yes, my daughter understands."
