Chapter 233 Watching a Show
During the conversation in the study, the three of them tacitly agreed not to reveal anything to Xiao Yining, and even Wang Gungun was given a gag order.
This made Xiao Yining quite depressed, and he was in a bad mood the whole day.
Even the fact that Wanniang's cooking was finally edible didn't cheer her up at all.
Wan Niang held two small clay figurines and shook them in front of her daughter, but she didn't see her daughter smile. She couldn't help but complain to her husband, "You are really a fool. Qing Jie is so young, and you have to keep her at home."
Lin Yuzan looked up at his daughter and said nonchalantly, "You'll have to get used to it. Although you're still young and don't have to follow those rules, when you grow up and hang out outside every day, people will say that our family has no rules."
Wan Niang sighed softly, knowing what her husband was saying, but she still couldn't help but say, "It would be better if Sister Qing was a boy, so she would be less restrained."
Lin Yuzan pursed her lips and said, "Everyone has their own sufferings. Go to sleep."
Wan Niang had no choice but to hold her daughter in her arms and coax her a few words. Seeing her expression gradually ease, she asked, "Qing Jie, didn't you say you had something to give to Daddy? Daddy will be going back to the academy tomorrow. Are you going to give it this time or wait until the next ten-day break?"
Little Yining pouted, glanced at her father, and reluctantly took out the dagger and handed it over, "A birthday gift for Daddy."
Lin Yuzan looked at his daughter in surprise. This little dagger had helped her twice before. He even went out to make a small leather case for his daughter to put on her leg for easy access. This would save her from having to search for it for a long time and not being able to get it out like before.
"I accept your kindness. But this dagger has saved you from danger many times, so Qingjie should keep it for yourself." Although Lin Yuzan was relieved, he still pushed the dagger back. "Dad, it's not your birthday anymore, don't think about it anymore."
The second half of the sentence was directed to Wan Niang.
Although he lives a good life now, every rebirth in his previous life reminds him that he has lived another year secretly. Sometimes, living a long life can also be a kind of pain.
He didn't want to live this life. Although his body was younger, his heart was old. Celebrating his birthday was like reminding him that he was an old monster in young skin.
Wan Niang looked at her husband in confusion, "How can this be done?"
"I'm 21 years old and don't want to get older." Lin Yuzan said stubbornly.
Wan Niang:......
Little Yining changed his words and said, "This dagger is for Daddy to defend himself."
She also took out another one from the bed. "King Yu gave me a new one. Sister Qing's legs can't carry two swords. They will get tired."
Lin Yuzan raised his eyes and looked at the other dagger. He frowned at the first glance, then quickly reached out to take it and looked at it carefully.
After thinking for a moment, he threw the dagger aside and said with a smile, "Qing Jie, you should carry Duke Chen's dagger from now on. This one from Prince Yu... is enough for Dad to defend himself. Dad has a beautiful item."
Xiao Yining: ...
"Mom, Dad is a bully."
Wan Niang also looked at Lin Yuzan speechlessly, but still helped him and said, "Qing Jie, let your father do it today. I will go to Dongfeng Pavilion tomorrow to make you a more exquisite dagger."
"Go to bed, it's getting late." Lin Yuzan reminded her again. He had to wait until his daughter fell asleep so that he could hug Wan Niang. Even if he couldn't eat meat, he could still drink soup.
Unfortunately, Wan Niang didn't do what he wanted. She got off the bed and started to look through the boxes in the corner. Soon, she took out a wooden box and asked him, "Since my husband doesn't want to celebrate his birthday, do you still want to wear this jade lock?"
Lin Yuzan stared at the wooden box in surprise. He had not seen such a thing for decades.
Little Yining looked at the wooden box curiously, then she used her hands and feet to crawl over her father's body and stretched out her hand to ask for it.
"Qingjie, you can't take it, or you will drop it." Wanniang said, and opened the wooden box and took out the things inside. It was an exquisitely carved jade peace lock with small gold rings on both sides and tied with a thin red rope.
Xiao Yining raised her hand to compare, and the safety lock was actually bigger than her palm.
Lin Yuzan took the jade lock with a complicated expression. His mother would only take this item out and let him wear it for a day on his birthday.
He looked lonely, and put the jade lock back into the wooden box, saying in a muffled voice, "I won't wear it anymore. When I return to my hometown, I will bury it in front of my mother's grave."
Xiao Yining was a little upset after hearing this.
This plot is not right. The quality and craftsmanship of this peace lock are obviously worth hundreds of thousands or even millions. If her father doesn't want to wear it, he should pass it on to her. Or he can just keep it as a family heirloom. Wouldn't it attract thieves if it is buried in the ground?
How can you do this?
Little Yining's eyes followed the wooden box until her mother put it back.
Lin Yuzan also noticed his daughter's reluctant look and said with a smile, "Someday, Dad will find a fine jade stone and carve one for Qingjie. That is your grandmother's favorite thing, and you have to return it to her."
"Then Dad should return it tonight. Grandmother is in the underground anyway. You can burn it for her. There is no place where you can't collect it." Xiao Yining offered the advice of an experienced person.
捎?
Lin Yuzan nodded silently.
As expected of his daughter, no one can match her intelligence.
The next moment, he raised his palm ruthlessly and shouted, "You curse your father all day long. I really spoiled you."
Xiao Yining: ...How did I provoke him?
……
Father Lin once again set out for school with a gloomy face. He turned around and looked at his wife accusingly, saying that his daughter didn't want to go to the girls' school and she wouldn't send him there either.
Is he really not as good as his daughter?
Facts have proved that he is really no match for Xiao Yining. Today, Wan Niang and her daughter stood on the same front. She snorted at him at the same time and ruthlessly closed the door.
Lin Yuzan immediately gritted his teeth, thinking that the little kid was a hindrance to the relationship between husband and wife.
He sulked and got into the carriage, "Let's go."
The Lin family's carriage slowly drove away, and another carriage appeared behind, which belonged to the Pei residence.
Pei Yi gently lifted the curtain and looked coldly at Leng Qingyun who had just opened the door, then smiled provocatively.
Leng Qingyun looked at the departing carriage viciously.
He ended up in this situation because of this rebellious son.
What he didn't know was that there was a big drama waiting for him.
Little Yining couldn't participate in this drama, but her father, in order to appease her, still said that she could be the first spectator.
Waiting...
The academy is not peaceful today.
After injuring his left hand, Kong Xingzhi encountered a gangster on his way home. His right hand was disabled and his left hand was chopped off. His life was ruined and he had no chance of a career in politics.
"When my father arrived, Senior Brother Kong was already dying. Fortunately, the doctor at the clinic saved his life." Zhang Liangchuan couldn't help but sigh when he mentioned this. He looked at the two people who were listening to the news and advised again, "You really can't stay in the courtyard anymore."
Lin Yuzan comforted him, "Don't worry, Liangchuan brother. We are always fine."
"It's up to you. Just be careful." Zhang Liangchuan shook his head and sighed, seemingly disappointed with their desperate stubbornness.
Wang Cheng looked at his departing back and sneered, "You are still too young. You acted rashly when you got nervous. You exposed yourself and ended up hurting yourself."
When that person got the note, he could tell that it came from the pentagram on the head of their bed, so he would naturally target the people from Hanqiuyuan first.
In order to protect himself, Kong Xingzhi designed Wu Haoran to destroy his left hand, which was a way to confess without being punished.
After all, they are still too young, and both of them are impatient.
Lin Yuzan pretended to be thoughtful and said, "Senior Brother Kong always took care of us in the academy. Now that we have encountered such a disaster, let's go see him during the holidays."
Wang Cheng nodded, his face also full of sorrow, lamenting the injustice of God towards Kong Xingzhi's unfortunate experience, and thinking that God was jealous of his talent!
It was also the first time that the people of Hanqiuyuan gathered together in peace and harmony.
Wu Haoran wiped the tears from his eyes and said, "I am also responsible for Brother Kong's misfortune. If I hadn't injured his hand and delayed his return home, he wouldn't have suffered this misfortune."
He took out a silver note worth one thousand taels from his purse and put it on the table.
Everyone:...
