"What?" Lin Wanrong shouted. He dragged his cloth shoes and ran outside. What's going on here, Madam doesn't love the second young lady very much, why did she become like this after not seeing her for a few days
"Xiaoju, tell me what's going on? Day, don't cry, tell me what's going on?" Lin Wanrong asked anxiously.
Xiaoju wept and said, "I don't know what happened. Early this morning, I heard that Madam and Missy had summoned all the managers below to discuss matters. Later, the second lady broke into the meeting room for some reason, and seemed to be arguing." Yes. The madam is angry and wants to punish the second young lady."
"Spanking for breaking into the meeting hall? Damn, what the hell is this?" Lin Wanrong scolded.
"Third brother, you don't know the rules of the Xiao family. The meeting hall is the most important place of our Xiao family, and it is the place where the major affairs of the Xiao family are discussed. No one is allowed to trespass without permission. According to the rules, you need to be punished. The second lady is not in charge yet, and she broke in under the eyes of everyone, so the madam wants to punish her with a stick, woo-hoo—the second lady asked me to come to you, saying that you will be able to save her, Woohoo, Third Brother, you must save Second Miss."
Lin Wanrong was moved and angry at the same time. This little girl trusted herself so much at such a dangerous time, which really moved him. As for the anger, it was anger towards Mrs. Xiao, what kind of bullshit family rules, even her own daughter was willing to do it, did this lady have menopausal syndrome
After running a few steps in a hurry, Lin Wanrong remembered that he still didn't know where that shit meeting hall was. If it was a little later, that little girl's butt would bloom. Damn, why did the Xiao family build such a big house? Is it for the convenience of field battles? All of a sudden, I was in a hurry and turned around, not knowing which direction to go.
"Lin San, this way, this way." When he was so anxious, Master Biao ran over from nowhere: "Lin San, you must save Cousin Yushuang, I beg you."
One day, a life-saver came. Lin Wanrong wanted to hug this young master and kiss him, but it was too late to talk about anything, so he hurriedly said, "Where is it, take me there quickly."
Master Biao also knew that the matter was urgent, so he didn't dare to say more, so he took Lin Wanrong to the main courtyard of the Xiao family.
After running not far, I saw a two-story building. The downstairs door was half closed, Lin Wanrong looked around, there were dozens of stewards sitting inside, Mrs. Xiao was standing tall and full of anger, and Miss Xiao was kneeling on the ground, tightly hugging her mother's clothes with tears on her face. As if begging for mercy, next to them, the little girl Yushuang was lying on the ground, and a servant just picked up the big board——
Oh my god, Lin Wanrong was furious, he didn't know where the strength came from, he rushed forward quickly, kicked the door open and said loudly: "Who dares to hit—"
All the people in the room were stunned for a moment, only to see a servant wearing a hat askew, standing panting in front of the door, his shocking anger seemed to knock the sky down.
"Lin San—" Xiao Yushuang cried out in shock, but then burst into tears again.
A man in charge in the room stood up and said loudly, "Where did you come from as a slave to be so presumptuous?"
"Where did you get the wild dog to spout feces?" Lin Wanrong's face darkened, and he scolded without showing any weakness. Damn, play tricks on me, I rely on this for a living.
The guy in charge didn't expect that this servant would dare to be so rampant, he was so angry that he trembled like chaff, and said to Madam Xiao: "Sister-in-law, this is a good slave raised by your family."
Sister-in-law? Lin Wanrong wondered, the master of the Xiao family didn't seem to have any real brothers, could it be that they were distant relatives
Sure enough, Mrs. Xiao hurriedly said: "Fourth brother, don't be angry. You are of the same family as the master, and what belongs to my family belongs to yours. Let me teach this servant a lesson."
She straightened her face, faced Lin Wanrong, and said angrily, "Lin San, what are you going to do?"
"Ma'am, what are you going to do again?" Lin Wanrong walked up two steps and stared at Mrs. Xiao.
"Xiao Yushuang trespassed on the meeting hall, and according to the law of the ancestors, he will be held accountable to the top five." Mrs. Xiao gritted her teeth and said, "As for Lin San, you not only broke into the meeting hall, but also made a noise in court. Hundred boards."
"Mother, don't do it." Xiao Yushuang hugged Madam's legs tightly and said, "Lin San broke in because of me, if mother wants to punish, punish me."
"I beg mother not to punish my sister, my daughter is willing to suffer for my sister." Xiao Yuruo also hugged Mrs. Xiao and cried and begged.
Seeing that Xiao Yuruo was willing to be punished for her younger sister, Lin Wanrong's affection for her increased a little, and finally the sisters still had some affection.
Seeing his two daughters kneeling in front of him begging, Mrs. Xiao had mixed feelings, tears rolling in her eyes, he suppressed the grief and said: "Yushuang, although you are my daughter, you trespassed in the meeting room and even spoke out." Disrespect, according to the rules of the ancestors, you must be punished. In front of the elders of the clan today, I will teach you a lesson. Come on, pull Yushuang and this Lin San down, and punish a hundred big boards."
Damn, it's really stern and selfless, Lin Wanrong hated and respected Madam Xiao, and said loudly: "Wait a minute—"
Mrs. Xiao said angrily: "What else do you have to say?"
Lin Wanrong smiled and said: "Second Miss is a rich man, so I will take her board for her."
"Lin San, don't—" Xiao Yushuang cried and struggled, Xiao Yuruo hurriedly grabbed her tightly, and gave Lin Wanrong a grateful look. No matter what kind of person this Lin San is, his concern for Yushuang is genuine.
Mrs. Xiao never thought that Lin Wanrong would actually make such a request, but if he accepted it, Yushuang would not have to suffer. She sighed softly in her heart, waved her hand and said, "Since you have this kind of intention, then punish one hundred and fifty Big board."
"Wait a minute, ma'am, it's fine for me to take the one hundred and fifty slaps, but I have to be a famous teacher. You just said, according to the rules left by the ancestors of the Xiao family, you have to beat the second lady. I don't know the rules. , when will it be decided?" Lin Wanrong asked.
Mrs. Xiao said: "This is the rule set by the old man when he was still alive. Why, do you still want to go against it?"
"Haha—" Lin Wanrong laughed loudly: "Rules are made by people, but they are also discarded by people. When the old man was alive, such rules were naturally made to punish those young people with ulterior motives, but now it is the second lady who wants to do it for the best." Her filial piety, in order to carry forward the Xiao family, how can it be compared with those young people. The second young lady is a descendant of the old man, if she is punished by the madam, it means that she is plotting something wrong, so where does this put the old man? I think, even if the old man is alive, he would never want to see such a scene, madam?"
Mrs. Xiao was taken aback for a moment, but was rendered speechless by what the servant said. She had already handed over all the management affairs of the Xiao family to the eldest lady, but when she was discussing the life-and-death plan of the Xiao family today, Xiao Yushuang rushed in and had a fierce dispute with the managers. Over the eldest lady, as an elder, she directly punished the second lady.
Xiao Yuruo saw that her mother's expression was loose, and hurriedly took her hand, and said firmly: "Mother, you have already said that the affairs of the house, no matter how big or small, are handled by your daughter. Although Yushuang made a mistake today, she is also responsible. There is no great evil in thinking of the Xiao family, and besides, she is a member of the Xiao family, and this is a matter of life and death related to the survival of the Xiao family, so she naturally has the right to know the details."
Seeing that her mother stopped talking, Xiao Yuruo turned around and gave the stewards a cold look, and said coldly, "I don't know what the stewards think?"
The Xiao family has a big business, and all the managers below are relatives of the clan, so the eldest lady gathered them together to discuss big plans. Miss Xiao usually acted vigorously and vigorously, and these stewards were a little afraid of her. Seeing her glance, they all lowered their heads, and the few who were the loudest just now dared not say anything.
Xiao Yuruo snorted inwardly, then took his younger sister's hand and said: "Yushuang, since you are here, it is just right, you are my younger sister, and you have a part in this Xiao family, so you sit beside me, Listen to me discuss this with all uncles and uncles."
Xiao Yushuang hummed lightly, took a peek at Lin Wanrong, her face was full of touch and joy, she remembered Lin Wanrong's words, she was not afraid of the eyes of all the uncles, she looked at the eldest lady and said loudly: "Sister, our Xiao family can't A joint venture with the Tao family."
Xiao Yuruo sighed, and said: "Sister, you are still young, these things are not as simple as talking about them. As long as it is beneficial to our Xiao family, we will do it."
While the two sisters were talking, the steward who had been scolded by Lin Wanrong suddenly said: "Eldest miss, the second miss is a member of my Xiao family, and we have nothing to say when she enters the meeting hall. But this slave, not only trespassed , and uttered wild words, insulting the master, and not punishing him, it is really hard to boost my Xiao family's prestige."
Seeing that Xiao Yushuang was fine, Lin Wanrong was about to retreat quietly, but when he heard that the steward grabbed him, he was secretly annoyed, this bastard steward, if he can't say it, I'm going to use dirty tricks, he's really not a thing.
Although Xiao Yuruo felt that Lin Wanrong was helping her sister, her perception of him was unlikely to change fundamentally. Seeing that the manager took the opportunity to make trouble, she gave Lin Wanrong a cold look, but did not speak.
"Miss, such an arrogant slave, if he is not strictly punished, my Xiao family may never have peace." The steward said heartbroken.
"Lin San, although you are loyal to protect the lord, you are commendable for your loyalty. But you are so intrusive in important discussions, and you utter insults without punishment. It is really hard to convince the public. What else do you have to say?" Xiao Yuruo looked at him. With a glance, he said expressionlessly.
Lin Wanrong sneered and said, "Miss, the Xiao family's house is big, what's the point of punishing one or two servants? In fact, there is no need for you to do any punishment. From today onwards, Lin will not do it—"
"Lin San—" Xiao Yushuang cut off his words anxiously, her beautiful eyes filled with tears, she walked to him, grabbed his sleeve and said, "Lin San, you promised me that you must help my sister, our Xiao family can't Broken."
She turned to face Xiao Yuruo and her mother, with a touch of red on her face, she said shyly: "Mother, sister, Lin San is not an outsider, he and I have already—" She gritted her teeth and looked at Lin Wanrong After one glance, the voice as thin as a gnat continued: "—I've made a private decision for life."
