Chapter 226: Xiao Yuan, Your Conscience Has Been Eaten by a Dog
Very strange.
If it were in the past.
If Lin Qingjun said anything bad about Yingxue, his heart would feel as if it was on fire. He would never allow anyone to say anything bad about Yingxue, especially Lin Qingjun.
But I don't know why.
This time, when he heard her say this about Lin Yingxue, he didn't feel any discomfort in his heart. He didn't feel uncomfortable, but he also felt comfortable. It seemed that he had calmed down a lot.
He seemed to care less about Lin Yingxue.
Instead, it was towards her.
Xiao Yuan looked at Lin Qingjun, and he suddenly realized that he seemed to care about her more and more.
When he was just reborn, he really hated her and felt that she was a stumbling block and an obstacle between him and Yingxue. He swore that he never wanted to see her again in this life and didn't want to have anything to do with her. Even if she was Yingxue's half-sister, he wouldn't even look at her. But considering that she had been his wife for three years in her previous life, he could give her a few taels of silver so that she wouldn't starve to death on the street.
But that’s all, there’s nothing more.
But for some reason, every time he left the Lin Mansion, he wanted to look back at Lin Qingjun again. Moreover, he liked the Lin Qingjun who went against him more than the Lin Qingjun who obeyed her in the previous life.
However, he still believed that this was Lin Qingjun's tactic of playing hard to get with him. Although he expressed more and more disgust, his body honestly recalled the angry look on her face when she scolded him.
For many nights, he dreamed that she came into his dream and scolded him. He couldn't hear what she was scolding, but he really liked her angry look. Perhaps no one told him that she was more attractive to men when she looked like this.
Like now.
He really liked the way she was angry.
Even if she scolded Lin Yingxue and said that she had planned all this, he didn't care. He seemed to only care about Lin Qingjun.
But seriously.
"Lin Qingjun, this time when I said I'd marry you, it really has nothing to do with Lin Yingxue. I only want to marry you, and I will only marry you. I can also promise you now that after we're together, I will find a way to get my concubine out."
"We can live our happy days in Shangjing again. You take care of my parents and me wholeheartedly. I will no longer interfere with your beating and scolding of the servants. I have also figured it out. You can beat and scold a servant as you like. At most, I can buy a few more."
Don't let those servants ruin their relationship.
"However, if the concubine is brought out, we can only send her to the manor. You know, I am Lin Zhi's student, I have to respect him. I can't bring his woman out and keep her in my house. This is not decent for Lin Zhi."
What he said was true. Look at his eyes, isn't he sincere?
Lin Qingjun was stunned again.
Send her aunt to the farm? And let her serve his parents in return? What? Is her aunt a lowly person? Is she unworthy of being served by her?
"Zhuangzi? Haha, Xiao Yuan, you're so surprised to hear such a thing."
Lin Qingjun was extremely disappointed, and of course, she had no hope for him.
But he treats his aunt like this?
Haha, his conscience has really been eaten by a dog.
"Xiao Yuan, you've lost your conscience when you say this. Has my aunt treated you badly? Hasn't my aunt ever felt sorry for you? Do you really feel guilty about treating her like this? Have you really lost all your knowledge of etiquette?"
Xiao Yuan frowned slightly.
"Lin Qingjun, what nonsense are you talking about? Aunt Liu is in the backyard. When has she ever felt sorry for me?"
Wasn’t it Yingxue who always cared about him?
Lin Qingjun was startled, a flash of light suddenly flashed through his mind, and then he turned around to look at Xiao Yuan's confused expression.
She suddenly laughed, very loudly.
"Hahaha, hahaha, Xiao Yuan, you, you don't think my aunt has never cared about you, right?"
Could it be that he thought that the people who gave him winter clothes and shoes were Lin Yingxue?
"Okay, then let me ask you, late last fall, did you receive a bundle containing a thin cotton coat? Also, two pairs of thin black cotton shoes? Thick soles, with calfskin around the soles?"
Xiao Yuan was puzzled. "Yes, I received it, but how did you know? Oh, it was Yingxue who told you, right? Yingxue is really good to you. She told you everything she gave me."
"Lin Qingjun, didn't you ask me why I was so protective of Yingxue? I'll tell you the truth. This is one of the reasons. Late autumn came early last year, like early winter. There was even a little ice outside. But I had just come from Guanxin County at that time, and food, clothing, and shelter alone took up most of my money. If she hadn't come to me in time of need, I would have been frozen to death."
Don't underestimate a small piece of clothing. It is the most precious thing for everyone in the family. Some families are so poor that they don't even have clothes. If someone wants to go out, he has to wear the only piece of clothing in the house.
Even though his parents supported him wholeheartedly and he never lacked clothes, he didn't have thick cotton clothes for the winter. In his hometown, he studied under the quilt.
So, the things Lin Yingxue sent him last year not only warmed his heart, but actually saved his life.
Xiao Yuan was not a person who did not know how to be grateful. He would remember her kindness for the rest of his life.
Yingxue is beautiful, kind, and cares about him so much. Moreover, she is a daughter of an official, which makes it difficult for a poor boy like him not to be moved.
"Oh, was it given by Lin Yingxue?"
When Lin Qingjun heard this, the sarcasm on his lips became even stronger, and at the same time, a hint of sympathy flashed in his eyes.
"Alas, Xiao Yuan, ah Xiao Yuan, what can I say to you? Even if you want to repay someone, you have to figure out who you should repay the most. Aren't you afraid that you're repaying the wrong favor?"
Xiao Yuan blurted out, "That's absolutely impossible. The one who sent these things over was Yingxue's servant. I remember it very clearly."
Xiao Yuan showed his displeasure again, "Lin Qingjun, although I am thinking of you, it doesn't mean that you can throw dirty water on Yingxue at will."
Lin Qingjun snorted coldly, "Throwing dirty water? Lin Yingxue stole someone else's favor, so she's right? Fine, then do you dare to find her and confront us now?"
"Lin Qingjun, do you have to make such a scene? Yingxue has done me a favor, are you so ignorant as to ruin her?"
Lin Qingjun was so angry that he laughed again.
"Okay, even if we don't confront her face to face, I have a way to prove that the gift I gave you last year wasn't made by her, but by my aunt."
"Xiao Yuan, let me ask you, is there a tiny pocket sewn on the corner of your thin cotton coat?"
"Also, isn't the calfskin around the edges of the shoes a different color? That's because it's not a single piece of calfskin. My aunt pieced it together. She used calfskin around the edges to make them durable in the rain. That's also why they have thick soles."
