Lin Weixi returned home in the dark. As soon as she opened the courtyard door, a voice suddenly sounded in the dark courtyard: "Where have you been?"
Lin Weixi was startled. She touched her heart and calmed herself down. After seeing the speaker clearly, she rolled her eyes secretly, didn't even want to say anything, and walked toward her house against the wall.
Li Da felt very unhappy when he saw Lin Weixi treating him like nothing. He quickly stepped forward and stood in front of Lin Wei Xi, and his voice couldn't help but become louder: "I'm asking you a question!"
Lin Weixi frowned and wanted to go around, but Li Da followed her a few steps and always stood in front of her. After doing this three or four times, Li Da and Lin Wei Xi got closer and closer, and he gradually became interested, while Lin Wei Xi was bored.
Lin Weixi lowered her face and said coldly: "Get out of the way."
It was rare for Li Da to be so close to Lin Weixi. When he saw Lin Weixi's face darken, he felt resentful himself. But looking at Lin Wei Xi's face, which man could be angry with such a face? He couldn't help but soften his tone: "Aren't I worried about you? You, an unmarried girl, go outside alone in such a dark day. What is this like? I have been waiting for you for a long time, and you have just come back now. Is it right for you to tell me about this? Even if you want to go out to relax, you should tell my mother and me, and I will accompany you out. ”
Lin Weixi gave a short laugh, with a cold meaning: "No need, I'm going back." After she finished speaking, she walked forward, but was blocked by Li Da who took two quick steps. Lin Weixi tried twice more, and both failed. He was firmly blocked. Lin Weixi frowned, raised an eyebrow and looked at Li Da: "What do you mean?"
A beauty is a beauty, even with such a cold expression on her eyebrows, she is still amazingly beautiful. Li Da smiled apologetically and said: "Cousin, what do I mean? Don't you understand? We are cousins, we are about the same age. We have been the best couple since ancient times. I know that my uncle is gone, and you are very happy during this time. Sad, don’t worry, I will take care of you on your uncle’s behalf from now on.”
Lin Weixi smiled softly, and her eyes slightly curved when she smiled, which was more dazzling than the stars in the sky. Li Da was a little crazy looking at it. But the next moment, the beauty stopped smiling, and spit out sharp ice thorns from Zhu Hongtan's mouth: "By the way, you can also take care of the cash from the land left by my father, right?"
Li Da shivered, looking embarrassed: "Cousin, what did you say..."
"Why, do you dare to be a man? Do you and your mother have some evil ideas in mind? Don't you know it yourself? You still regard yourself as a good person, thinking that you are doing good deeds and taking in orphans and helpless people. My little cousin? Take back your hypocrisy. I don’t know how well I can live without you and your mother."
After Lin Weixi finished speaking, he glared at Li Da coldly, walked around him and walked back without looking back. This time Li Da didn't come to stop her. Li Da stood for a while by himself. When Lin Weixi was about to enter, he suddenly said to her: "Cousin, my mother has that kind of temper, and there's nothing I can do about it. I know she has been there all these years. I've been wronged by being cold to you. Don't worry, I'll go tell her right now and I will never wrong you again. I really want to marry you. I told my mother long before my uncle's reward came back. I’m going to marry you.”
"So?" Lin Weixi did not look back, still looking cold and cold, "She said she disagreed, so you didn't say anything. Moreover, if my father hadn't been posthumously named a Marquis, you wouldn't have You won't say that you won't wrong me in the future. It's really ridiculous. Do you still feel that you are an infatuated person in your heart, and you are so moved that you can't help yourself? Hehe, in fact, you just refuse to admit it, you are a person who has no opinion. , I dare not disobey your mother, you coward."
After finishing speaking, Lin Weixi didn't bother to look at Li Da's expression, opened the door and walked inside. As soon as she stepped one foot across the threshold, she heard Li Da say: "Cousin, you are really mean. If it weren't for your pretty face and your temper, no man would be willing to marry you."
Lin Wei Xi felt a surge of anger going straight to the top of her head. Li Da and Aunt Lin were indeed one of the same family. They didn't have much ability, but they were very arrogant, and they looked down on women at every turn. Should women be gentle and flattering to them? Do Li Da and Aunt Lin think they have the throne in their family?
Lin Weixi was suffocating in her heart. The failed marriage in her previous life was a thorn in her heart. In this life, she was most taboo about being told that she couldn't get married or that she didn't like her husband. Whoever touches this Nilin will die.
Lin Weixi turned around with a groan and even smiled at Li Da. She was so beautiful that she looked like a fairy when she smiled like that, but her words that followed were as sharp as a knife: "So what if no man wants to marry me? My father was named the Marquis of Zhongyong by the court, and I have thousands of hectares to my name." Fertile land, even if there is no man, relying on the protection left by my father and relying on myself, I can live a thousand times better than you in this life."
Li Da has been admired by Mrs. Lin since he was a child. Hearing these words, his chest heaved with anger and he pointed at Lin Weixi: "You..."
Lin Weixi raised his eyebrows slightly: "What are you, you, put your hand down, who allowed you to point your finger at me?"
When Lin Weixi was Gao Xi in her previous life, she was criticized many times by the British prince and his wife because of her temper. The Crown Prince's wife often said that she was the legitimate daughter of a princess and had been spoiled since she was a child. She did not develop a temperament like Lin Weixi's, who was unreasonable and could make people cry. The eldest princess Shoukang laughed after hearing this. She said that her own children were as good as they thought. The eldest princess said, Sister Xi is the eldest granddaughter of the Duke's family and the granddaughter of the eldest princess. What's wrong with having a bad temper? Others If you do something wrong, you should be scolded by Sister Xi.
In the past, Lin Weixi married into Prince Yan's Mansion and became the eldest concubine. As a daughter-in-law for the royal family, she always had to be docile. She did not dare to be arrogant in Prince Yan's Mansion, so she restrained herself a lot in reprimanding the servants and taking care of the family business. Even so , was still resented by the old man in the palace, and when it reached Gu Chengyao's ears, he naturally felt disgusted again.
Lin Weixi had been negative for a long time after her rebirth. She also wondered if it was really because of her bad temper that she ruined a good hand and ended up depressed. Perhaps, Gao Ran's kind of character is the type that really pleases men.
After being passive for a month, Lin Weixi finally thought about it. Anyway, she didn't plan to marry again in her life. Rebirth was a gift from God. There was no need for her to embarrass herself for other people's opinions. She had this unlovable character, and she recognized it. The only thing she could do was not to marry again and not to harm another family. As for the rest of her life, let her live it as she pleases.
However, Lin Weixi ignored one thing. In the past, others were so embarrassed by her that they did not dare to raise their heads. This was largely due to her status. Now she has lost the title of the British Duke, Princess Shoukang, and even Prince Yan. Protection, the person being scolded cannot reply, and it is easy to do some extreme actions when angry.
Li Da was like this. Every word Lin Wei Xi said was like a sharp knife piercing his heart, but he couldn't reply. Li Da was so angry that he rushed towards Lin Wei Xi, wanting Lin Wei Xi to see whether she wanted him or not. man.
Lin Weixi was startled when she saw Li Da's momentum. She reflexively looked at the upper room and found that the lights in the upper room had been turned off, showing a deliberate silence. Lin Weixi understood that the family had already planned to take advantage of the situation.
Lin Wei Xi was a little scared. She was not in good health and would cough even if she took two quick steps. How could she be able to match the strength of a strong young man named Li Da. She knew that she couldn't be trapped in the room, otherwise she would have no way to seek help. She picked up something from her hand and threw it at Li Da's face without looking. Li Da was stunned by the oncoming bran noodles and couldn't help but stop and rub his eyes. Lin Weixi took this opportunity to run out and rushed towards the courtyard door with all his strength. Li Da couldn't see clearly, so he let Lin Weixi run past him without noticing. After his eyes finally felt better, Li Da laughed evilly and rushed towards Lin Weixi.
Lin Weixi just opened the door bolt and found that Li Da had already caught up with her. She panicked, slammed the door on Li Da's face, and stumbled out.
But what strength could Lin Weixi's small body have? She was soon chased by Li Da. Li Da could hold Lin Weixi with one hand. Lin Weixi kicked and hit him, but couldn't break free at all. Everyone in this village is surnamed Li, and the villagers are fierce and xenophobic. Even if they hear the unusual noises from Lin Weixi's place, they probably won't come out to help her. Lin Weixi secretly hated her weak strength. Seeing that she was about to be dragged back to Aunt Lin's yard, Lin Weixi suddenly remembered in her desperation that she had also been a young lady in the Duke's Palace. These wealthy families valued safety the most and arranged for guards to attend nightclubs every day. On the courtyard wall. All the wealthy families in the Taiping Era were like this, but what about King Yan?
Lin Weixi really had no other choice and decided to take a gamble. She ignored her noble demeanor over the years and shouted at the top of her voice: "Your Highness, King Yan, you promised to take care of me, and you just let me be killed." Bullying? Prince Yan’s Palace..."
Before Lin Wei Xi finished shouting, he felt a strong wind blowing behind his neck, and then the strength on his arm relaxed. Li Da was knocked unconscious.
Lin Weixi was stunned for a moment, then quickly withdrew her hand and wiped the place touched by Li Da. The person who took action was as silent as an iron tower, with a dark hole behind him. If he hadn't just saved Lin Weixi, she would have been scared to death.
"Thank you..." Lin Weixi looked at the person in front of her and couldn't help but swallow her saliva. She tried her best to show a gentle and harmless smile, which was completely different from before. "What is the name of this hero?"
"Zhou Maocheng." This bear-like man looked at Lin Weixi with a very strange look. He endured it again and again, but he couldn't hold it back any longer, "Were you calling our prince just now?"
"Yes." Lin Weixi smiled kindly and tried his best to show his quiet side to his benefactor, "Zhou Benefactor, can you send me to King Yan? You have also seen that this place... I probably can't Live."
The way Zhou Maocheng looked at Lin Weixi could not be described in words. Lin Weixi's smile froze at such a look. What does it mean? The way she scolded people just now was too shrewish and left a bad impression on others?
Zhou Maocheng was arranged by King Yan to guard Lin Yong's daughter. When Zhou Maocheng received this task, he was still very surprised. Why would the prince pay attention to a little girl? Then he thought that Lin Yong and them were comrades-in-arms, iron brothers, and his daughter was Zhou Maocheng's daughter. It was reasonable and reasonable to stay with the little girl for one night. People who practice martial arts have clear eyes and ears. When Zhou Maocheng squatted outside and listened to Lin Weixi scolding, he felt that Lin Yong's description of his daughter was not stable, and that he was too embellishment of the father. But I have to say, listening to this little girl curse is quite enjoyable.
When Li Da became restless later, Zhou Maocheng cursed in his heart and immediately came to rescue Lin Wei Xi. However, he never expected that he would hear such interesting words from Lin Weixi just a moment later.
Who did Lin Weixi call? King Yan?
Zhou Maocheng's face was as dark as a bear's, but the drama in his heart came one after another. Lin Weixi felt the warrior next to her glance at her again and again along the way, and she couldn't help but feel her heart beat. Did she say something wrong?
In the village chief's yard, Gu Huiyan was still reading letters from the capital under the lamp. Things in the army and the capital could not be separated from people for a moment, not to mention that he might not be able to catch up with the large army as planned tomorrow, so these things must be arranged properly. .
After an unknown amount of time, the door was knocked three times. This was the rule in his army. Gu Huiyan said without raising his head: "Come in."
Zhou Maocheng came in and said with a sullen face: "Your Majesty, Lin Yong's daughter wants to see you."
Gu Huiyan paused for a moment before linking Lin Yong's daughter to Lin Weixi. Gu Huiyan thought of this little girl and couldn't help but press his eyebrows: "What's wrong with her?"
"She said she will go with you tomorrow and will not go back today. She will stay here with you."
Zhou Maocheng's face was tense, but his eyes were secretly tracking Gu Huiyan. He watched helplessly as the prince, who had always been unkind, pressed his eyebrows and sighed softly: "I already said I wouldn't abandon her... that's all. She feels so at ease, so let her stay. Mingda, you Clean up my room and let Lin Weixi live in it. Arrange a few more people to patrol that room at night and replace them more frequently."
After Gu Huiyan finished speaking, he paused and added: "Go and ask the village chief of Lijia Village for a few brand-new beddings. Charge them to my account and pay them together tomorrow." After finishing speaking, Gu Huiyan felt a little agitated himself. Not sure: "What else do you need to raise a little girl like this? Do you need to buy a dressing gown and luodai together?"
This problem is difficult for these guys. They can speak eloquently during marches and battles, but a delicate and fragile girl like Lin Weixi...
As soon as Gu Huiyan saw the expressions of the people in the room, he knew that they could not count on them. He tried hard to recall the layout of Prince Yan's mansion and said, "Let the village chief's wife go over and make arrangements. Many things will not be available for a while. Let’s wait until we go to the county seat tomorrow.”
After Gu Huiyan finished his instructions, he found that Zhou Maocheng was still where he was. Gu Huiyan moved his eyebrows slightly, and his voice was neither fast nor slow, as if he was just asking a normal question: "What's wrong?"
As if he had just woken up from a dream, Zhou Maocheng immediately stood up straight, gave Gu Huiyan a military salute, and then stepped back neatly: "I obey my orders."
.
Lin Weixi waited outside the courtyard for a while, and then was led into a spacious room by the village chief's wife. Although she felt that the people around her looked a little strange when she entered the house, she didn't take it to heart. She silently lamented that the village chief's family was really rich, and they had temporarily added an extra room for her, and it was so spacious and warm.
Lin Weixi agreed with Zhou Maocheng on the road that there was no need to tell King Yan about what happened at Lin's house. After all, this kind of thing is disgraceful. Lin Weixi doesn't care about her reputation. She just thinks that King Yan is her childhood idol. She should not tell King Yan about such unsightly private matters.
Lin Weixi sat on the soft quilt, thinking about today, and finally felt a sense of reality about the rest of her life. At this time, she felt a little scared when she thought about what had just happened. Lin Weixi fell back on the quilt, her nose filled with the unique smell of sunshine after the quilt had been sun-dried. She stared at the top of the bed for a while, and suddenly broke out into a big smile.
The nightmare-like sojourn life was finally over. From now on, whether Aunt Lin's family was dead or alive, Lin Weixi no longer wanted to care. She would get up early tomorrow and keep an eye on King Yan. No matter what, she would rely on King Yan to let him take her away. After finding a quiet and simple town, King Yan no longer has to be entangled with her. For the rest of his life, when Lin Weixi copied scriptures and prayed for Lin Yong and his mother, he would definitely burn longevity incense for King Yan. His son had caused her such misery, so Lin Weixi just asked King Yan to help her get out of trouble. Isn't it too much?
Lin Weixi thought about his thoughts for a while, and fell asleep like this. This was the rare peaceful sleep she had had since her rebirth. Lin Weixi slept until dawn. When she opened her eyes and saw the bright sunshine outside, Lin Weixi was dull for a moment and suddenly woke up with a fright.
Oops! Lin Weixi hurriedly **** her hair, put on her clothes and ran outside. As soon as she opened the door, she was stunned when she saw the man in the yard.
Gu Huiyan turned around when he heard the voice, and the sun shone on him, as if it had been plated with gold: "Are you awake?"
Lin Weixi stared blankly for a moment, then silently closed the door.
Gu Huiyan turned back and continued to comb Zhaoxue's mane, but there was a slight smile on his lips. Zhou Maocheng looked at this scene and was confused: "What happened to the daughter of the Lin family? Why did she go back again?"
Gu Huiyan chuckled and shook his head without saying anything.
After a while, Lin Weixi pushed the door open again and came out. This time, her cheeks were fair and her hair was neat. Although she didn't wear makeup, her naturally outstanding facial features were almost more dazzling than the sun. Gu Huiyan found a carriage for her from nowhere. Lin Weixi raised her chin slightly and boarded the carriage in an elegant manner. The lady was full of airs. After Gu Huiyan saw it, his eyes that had never moved for thousands of years were filled with a hint of smile. When he saw that everyone was ready, he took the lead and stepped onto Zhaoxue, his voice clear and majestic: "Let's set off."
"Yes." The response was loud and full of masculinity, like one person, and the sound shook the sky, followed by the sound of horses mounting. Zhou Maocheng was wondering until he sat on the horse, why is the prince laughing? Why didn't he see what was so funny?
