Chapter 228 You, Like Your Father
After returning to the "Lin Family" in Bianliang, Lin Zhiqing immediately observed the surrounding environment.
Compared with Shengjing City, the Lin family mansion in Bianliang is very small, probably only half the size of Shengjing City.
But the scenery here reveals a well-maintained feeling everywhere, it is very neat and tidy, and you can tell at a glance that the owner has put a lot of thought into it.
Who would have the time to take care of these flowers and plants?
Idle person!
Why is the scenery of the Lin family in Shengjing so messy?
First, the Lin family’s affairs were already a mess, and Lin Congli and others had no time to care about these trivial matters.
Second, Lin Congli and others did not properly control their subordinates.
But no matter which situation it is, the starting point is that the Lin family is in a bad situation.
With so much to do, I naturally have no time to take care of those seemingly unimportant things.
In contrast to Lin Congli and others, the old marquis looked energetic, and it seemed that he had not intervened in the Lin family's misfortune.
Compared with Lin Congli, Lin Zhiqing and others, he can indeed be called an idler.
Moreover, from these details, it can be seen that the old marquis is definitely a person who is good at commanding his subordinates and is very good at management.
Only in this way, when they were on the verge of being "driven" back to Bianliang, would the servants of the Lin family not be easily disturbed.
With just a quick glance, Lin Zhiqing had already seen a lot of things.
At least Bianliang is in much better condition than she had imagined.
After arriving at the main hall, Lin Yangyang couldn't wait to sit down and took a big sip of tea:
"Finally, I can rest. Grandfather, you don't know how hard my sister Qing and I have been running all the way here. Our butts are almost worn out from sitting."
"Hahaha!" The old marquis was about to sit down when he was amused by Lin Yangyang's words:
"Yangyang, you are still the same, kid. I have already ordered someone to clean up the room. If you are tired, go and have a good rest."
"Grandfather, since you said so, I won't be polite." Lin Yangyang simply stood up and walked towards the back room.
She was very familiar with this place, having been here several times before.
And he has a good relationship with the old marquis.
If Lin Congli had heard what Lin Yangyang had just said, he would definitely have scolded her.
But the old marquis, who was described as very strict by Aunt Mu, did not blame Lin Yangyang for her inappropriate words.
This is clearly the image of a very open-minded old man.
Before Lin Zhiqing could think about it, the old marquis spoke again: "Sit down, Qing girl."
Lin Zhiqing's mind was in a state of confusion. He didn't immediately ask him to go over and rest. It was obvious that he had something to say to him.
As expected, as soon as she sat down, the old marquis waved to the old servant beside him and said, "Uncle Wen, go get the things I prepared yesterday."
Uncle Wen turned around and left, obviously obeying Lin Qingshan's arrangements.
Lin Zhiqing watched Uncle Wen walk out without saying a word.
Aunt Mu had told her before that the old marquis used to be very kind to the younger generations.
After Lin Congrong got into trouble, the old marquis quickly set off back to Bianliang.
With nowhere else to turn, the original owner wrote letters to Bianliang many times, but never received a reply.
As a result, the original owner had already developed resentment towards his grandfather.
Since Lin Congrong's accident, several other young people have returned to Bianliang one after another, but Lin Zhiqing has never been back.
After so many years, there is no need for Lin Zhiqing to pretend to be friendly or distant towards the old marquis. Such a light attitude is the least wrong.
But this made the atmosphere a little awkward.
Fortunately, the old marquis did not care. Instead, he looked at Lin Zhiqing, as if he was considering how to start the conversation.
After a long while, he sighed softly: "Qing girl, you have worked hard over the years."
Lin Zhiqing was slightly stunned. She didn't expect that the old marquis' first words would be this.
Then, she mobilized her muscles and smiled faintly: "It's really hard."
As soon as these words were spoken, the old marquis became the one who was stunned.
Seeing the old marquis open his mouth slightly and his eyes narrowed, Lin Zhiqing judged that he was surprised.
What are you surprised about?
Are you surprised that Lin Zhiqing didn't say one thing and thought another, and said that he was living a good life and not having a hard time at all?
Or do you think Lin Zhiqing is lying and that Lin Zhiqing is really living well in Shengjing?
Whatever the situation, she couldn't accept it.
Because as the real person in charge of the Lin family, Lin Qingshan could not be unaware of his experience in the Lin family.
He was wrong not to intervene.
Now you are asking questions even though you already know the answer, which is wrong twice.
Lin Qingshan stared at Lin Zhiqing. After being surprised, he couldn't help but feel a little confused.
Lin Zhiqing did not miss this hint of doubt, and her heart skipped a beat... Could it be that she had been exposed somewhere?
"Qing girl, after going through so many things, you have indeed changed." The old marquis took a deep breath.
Lin Zhiqing perked up his nerves: "Grandfather, may I ask what has changed about me?"
"Courage!" Lin Qingshan answered without thinking:
"Shi'an is calm, Yangyang is boisterous, Jiusi is cunning, but you are the most timid."
Lin Zhiqing's expression remained unchanged: "After going through so much, if I were still the same as before, I would have been eaten alive long ago."
"Not bad." Lin Qingshan straightened his back: "Like your father."
This was the first time someone said this in front of Lin Zhiqing.
Moreover, when he mentioned his father, his tone did not contain any disgust or resentment of being implicated, but rather more regret.
"I never received a reply to the letters I sent you before, and I was always worried. But now that I see that you have made up your mind, I feel much more relieved."
Hearing this, Lin Zhiqing's mind was full of questions.
No, this news doesn't make sense!
"Grandfather, I'm afraid you've made a mistake." Lin Zhiqing was a talkative person. She knew the best way to clear up misunderstandings was to ask if she didn't understand something. "I've never received any letter from you."
After hearing this, Lin Qingshan frowned slightly, but he did not immediately refute Lin Zhiqing. Instead, he began to think.
With his unusual reaction, Lin Zhiqing raised his eyebrows, realizing that something was wrong.
When faced with an issue on which there is no consensus, most liars will choose to deny it first and then repeat their statement to increase credibility.
But Lin Qingshan didn't. His reaction was probably because he was thinking about what went wrong in the "delivery of the letter" process.
This is the level of thinking of those in a higher position.
He skipped the unnecessary dialectical process and went straight to thinking about the possible reasons that led to this result.
Lin Zhiqing reacted instantly. Could it be that someone intercepted the letter?
However, the correspondence between the Lin family and Bianliang was very important.
If someone intercepted them, the two sides of the Lin family would have lost track of the signals long ago.
Excluding this possibility, Lin Zhiqing could only think that something was wrong with the people around him!
She immediately ruled out Aunt Mu. If Aunt Mu had done these things, she would have exposed her the moment she discovered she had lost her memory.
Then, the only problematic person who has always been following him... no, following the original owner is Biluo.
It is very likely that she intercepted the letter!
