looking for sister

For several days in a row, I slept until I woke up naturally, and then got up slowly after I had enough time on the bed.As for the daytime, except for a small amount of time to go to the main courtyard to talk with the elders, the rest are mixed in the east courtyard.

Talking with hands, reading books, and playing games for a few days, not to mention Lin Jian, even Su Mu himself felt a little bit reluctant to leave.

Before parting, the two entered the main courtyard, and Su Mu could still see from his aunt's face that he hesitated to speak, so he pretended not to know.Lin Jian, on the other hand, was a little sticky, she leaned against his mother and didn't move, and finally puffed out her mouth.

"It's better to stay at home. At my uncle's house, I will be called up by Su Chenghong to do early work."

"Eat coriander too."

"He didn't speak for me either, just sat on the sidelines and watched the play."

After a few words, the voice was soft like being alone at the parents' knees.Su Mu stood there just smiling, and Mrs. Lin touched the silly son's head, "Since Amu is not a good bastard, you should stay at home for a while."

"No, no, insisting on doing morning exercises is good for your health." Lin Jian stood up abruptly, and Mrs. Lin took advantage of this to pat him on the leg, "Little white-eyed wolf, let's go."

After saying this, Su Mu got another blank stare.

"Before I didn't bring Ah Jian back, it was my nephew's fault. Fortunately, I live close to each other, so we will come back often in the future."

Su Mu smiled and said good things, Lin Jian came over to join him, the expression on his face, in fact, was a little sympathetic.

"You told the truth to your aunt, have you considered in advance if it is a bad result?"

It wasn't until he went out and turned into a familiar alley that Su Mu dared to speak out. This question had been circling in his head for a few days, and he just couldn't get it right now.

"Mother, I understand her temperament to some extent. First, it was her idea at the time, and she felt that she was wrong. Moreover, when she saw my attitude, she knew that she couldn't change it now."

…Speaking like this, as if she had made up her mind to always be with this person by her side, Lin Jian's face turned hot for a moment, but she soon calmed down, "Well, in fact, I wasn't that old at the time. I’m sure, I just thought that way, and I said that.”

"Does it mean that we recognize each other and will never be separated again?"

Su Mu's heart skipped a beat, and then he started talking nonsense.

Lin Jian rolled his eyes at him, but the honey in his heart overflowed like it couldn't be stopped.

"Hey, in the past few days at home, has mother asked about sister?"

"Shy?" Su Mu turned his head to the side.

"Go." Lin Jian jumped angrily.

"My aunt did ask, but we don't have any definite evidence, so we can only say that we don't know yet. When we have news, we will reply to her immediately."

The two chatted all the way back to the Su residence, and when they arrived at the main courtyard, they saw Mrs. Su coming out to welcome them before they entered the door.

As soon as Lin Jian saw this situation, she remembered the quarrel between the mother and son before, and hurriedly reached behind her and squeezed Su Mu's waist, and then smiled on her face, "It's so cold now, hurry up and get in the house." .”

Su Mu really calmed down a bit, and pointed to the door again, "We haven't come back for a few days, please worry about you and father."

"It's me who made a fuss about staying at home for a few more days, and that's why it's been dragging on until now." Lin Jian surrounded him and laughed. He was about to walk in together on the other side, but he paused when he saw the person's face, which was not very obvious. , but at such a close distance, it is not impossible to see.

Lin Jian felt a little strange in her heart, but it was nothing.

There is not much difference between the main house and usual, but some bright colors have been added to the windows.Lin Jian let go of the doubts in her heart, turned her head to look, and found that there was an extra bottle with a plum branch inserted obliquely at the neck, which was bright red and very beautiful.

"It's actually blooming in this season." Lin Jian stretched out his hand to touch it, and Su Mu opened his hand with a smile, "This is probably a rouge plum. If Madam wants it, we can fold it ourselves. This is someone else's, so don't move around." good."

It was clearly just a very ordinary sentence, but Lin Jian felt a little awkward after hearing it right now.

……

Does this Mei have any special meaning?Could it be that the uncle folded it for the aunt?

Lin Jiansheng froze in place, making comparisons with his lips.

"Look over there." Su Mu pointed secretly.

"Xiangling." Lin Jian greeted habitually, but stopped in the next moment.

If it wasn't for the fact that she was extremely familiar with that face, Lin Jian would hardly believe her eyes.

The pink long jacket, with fluffy fluff around the neckline, was looking this way in response.She was originally on the side seat, holding something in her hand, but the next moment there was a "bang".

"The servant didn't do it on purpose, but just missed it."

Before Lin Jian could react, she subconsciously pulled Su Mu back when she heard the voice.

No hot soup was splashed over, but the aroma of tea was overflowing.

And Lin Jian was even more confused.

Because of Xiang Ling's big movement just now, he could see it even more clearly.It doesn't matter that there are a lot of precious hair accessories on the other party's head, but the key is that her hair was just tied up randomly, and most of the rest is loose.But right now, it has become a woman's hair accessory.

"Xiangling... who did she promise to suddenly?"

Lin Jian was stunned for a while, and immediately went to tug on Su Mu's sleeve. After she had done it, she realized that Su Mu was not in the mansion these days.He looked towards Mrs. Su not far away, and found that she was bending over to help Xiangling, and the voice came, "We just want to ask a brief question about the child, you don't have to be so nervous."

"I'll just ask someone to come in and clean up the debris later. Don't be careful to hurt yourself."

Xiang Ling got up, and both of them turned their eyes towards this side, and then quickly turned back, as if they were avoiding something.

Because a mother is more expensive than a child, did Xiang Ling really become Su Lian's concubine?

No wonder there are plum blossoms by the window, so it can be regarded as a low-key congratulations.

Lin Jian couldn't regain his senses, and was thinking about going back to the east courtyard first to be quiet, but Su Chongfeng waved at them, "How are you doing these few days outside?"

Although he was talking homely, Lin Jian could see clearly that the look on this uncle's face was not right, it was obviously twisted.Xiang Ling was standing beside her, and she didn't see half of her eyes. She protected her stomach with one hand, and supported Mrs. Su with the other hand, and hid to the side.Lin Jian could see clearly that the exposed hand was still tightly clutching the veil, vaguely revealing the appearance of a lotus flower.

After being upset, I couldn't enjoy chatting, so most of the time it was Su Mu who was talking, and Lin Jian couldn't hold back and only responded a few times.

Xiang Ling also quickly withdrew, and then someone came in to clean up, so they came out with an excuse.

Su Mu was packing up the chess pieces on the table, and raised his hand to take off the one between Lin Jian's fingers, "I know Ah Jian is feeling depressed, so you might as well just say it."

"Don't you think it's very surprising?" Lin Jian frowned immediately, and slapped the chessboard loudly.

The voice was unexpectedly high. Lin Jian lowered his eyes and leaned down to blow on the palm of his hand. Su Mu caught him and patted him lightly, "Be careful, why are you still so reckless?"

A few chess pieces were scattered, and Su Mu picked them up one by one, put them in the pouch and put them away, "Let me guess what Ah Jian said, is it about Xiangling?"

"Yes." As soon as she opened her mouth, she was obviously vented, "Xiang Ling was with her sister before, I don't know much about her, but she was sold into the mansion as a slave when she was young, presumably She was born in bitterness. So now she has a similar home, I am actually very happy for her. It’s just that when I think about what happened before, I always feel uncomfortable. Besides, she is still dead in Xiangwu, so suddenly, I How can I bear it."

Among many things, the most fearful thing is comparison. When Lin Jian said this, her eyes turned red.

"Perhaps it's because of the child, which gets worse after a long time, that's why he rushed so fast." Su Mu comforted him. In fact, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

"It's already like this now, no matter how it is, it won't change anything."

Lin Jian took this sentence to end, and finally crawled on the bed depressed, and suddenly remembered something else, "Now that Cousin Lian has married, uncle can't keep people grounded. He wants to go back to the academy , or stay at home for the time being?"

After saying this, Lin Jian thought about what happened in the afternoon, and felt a little untenable, "I don't know if I was thinking too much, but I always felt that Uncle didn't like Xiang Ling very much. At that time we Still in the main courtyard, in front of many people, he didn't have a very good face."

Su Mu walked towards the bed and handed him hot water. Lin Jian drank the water without waiting for him to speak, "What's wrong? You didn't notice it, did you?"

"That matter is seldom mentioned. I've told Ah Jian now. You can treat it as our little secret." Su Mu took the cup and put it away, and the candle next to it was brought out The wind swept over, and it swayed a little immediately.

"Go, you think this is teasing Jiajia." Lin Jian smiled, but became a little nervous.Su Mu seldom did this, which made him a little nervous for no reason.

The story is not very long, until the end of the story, Lin Jian can still feel the residual warmth of the cup in his hand, but his eyes widen uncontrollably, "Su Mu, didn't you make up some random words to lie to me? Well, how is this possible?"

"Then how do you explain that Second Uncle has been refusing to come back, no matter it's a festival or a big happy event." Su Mu replied.

"Mr. Su liked Miss Qingqing, and there was nothing wrong with that. My uncle just decided to break them up at the time, so he shouldn't have thought that the consequences would be so serious. Afterwards, Qingqing died with regrets, and Mr. Su also stayed in the academy in anger, never to return. Not coming back."

This sentence, Lin Jian said more and more slowly, and finally came out with a sigh.

He came here often, but he didn't know about it, it must have been a long time ago.And uncle, he must have deliberately concealed it very tightly.

"But I still feel that with Mr. Su's temperament, it doesn't seem like something happened to him."

After sighing for a long time, Lin Jian still couldn't accept it.

"But this happens to be the truth, and when my father sees Xiang Ling, he will remember what happened back then."

"It's really messy enough." Lin fell down almost stiffly, and was hugged by Su Mu, "So, I am very grateful that I can be with you smoothly."
