My apprentice is not easy

Chapter 54 Victims

"what is it call?!"

"...Lin Qingwan, the aster flower's aster."

The girl replied puzzled.

Shen Ling was silent for a moment, then shook her head and stood up from the chair.

"It's nothing."

That is, the name Lin Qingwan only appeared once in the plot.

It was the passage she remembered just now, the word Lin Qingwan appeared on the list of Huachuan's victims, and she was the leader.

Of course, that's the same sentence.

There are so many people with the same name in the world, it is impossible to meet one by yourself, it is the person in the plot!
And the place where this episode took place was in the capital city of Wu State, which was separated by hundreds of thousands of miles from his small border town of Great Yin!

Withdrawing her thoughts, Shen Ling said again.

"Miss Lin's qin art is a bit inferior to my small tea stall, but if Miss Lin doesn't mind it, it's fine to stay!"

Lin Qingwan nodded immediately.

"Thank you sister, I'll stay!"

"it is good."

Shen Ling picked up the remaining cup of hot tea on the table and handed it over.

Lin Qingwan was puzzled, but reached out to take it again.

"When you plucked the strings just now, your fingers were a little stiff, it must be cold, warm!"

As he spoke, he walked to the side and made way for his seat.

"Sit down!"

Lin Qingwan blinked, feeling a warm current in her heart.

But strangers who meet for the first time can do this.

The corners of her lips lifted, revealing a sincere smile.

"Thank you!"

"By the way, my name is Shen Ling, and the one over there is Shen Qinghe."

Shen Ling introduced.

"The opening time of the small shop is not fixed every day. The main reason is that it doesn't look good. The tea stall outside the shop should not be visited recently."

"Is Miss Lin planning to go home and rest? Or stay here?"

Lin Qingwan blinked and looked in the direction of the courtyard.

"Can I stay here?"

Shen Ling raised her eyebrows.

"Why, don't you want to go home?"

Could it be that this is a rich lady who ran away from home because of conflicts with her family?

Lin Qingwan smiled and bowed her head in silence.

It's not that she won't reply, but that she doesn't know how to reply, and... doesn't want to return that much.

"Okay." Shen Ling said, "Anyway, I have quite a lot of vacant rooms here, and I have a place for you to live in. Go in and choose a room!"

"Thank you!"

Lin Qingwan thanked her, picked up her piano, and followed obediently.

When the two of them entered the courtyard, Shen Qinghe got up and walked out of the shop.

I saw Mr. Zhao standing at the door, stepping on a man dressed in black.

As soon as Shen Qinghe came out, Mr. Zhao threw out a golden rope and tied the people under his feet tightly.

"The news that she is here, someone knows."

Shen Qinghe nodded dumbly.

"Oh."

Mr. Zhao sighed softly, leaned over, and lifted the person on the ground.

He sighed as he walked away.

"I'm afraid this leisurely life is coming to an end."

Shen Qinghe leaned against the door frame, looked up at the sky, her expression was as blank as ever.

As for what he was thinking, only he knew.

……

Wu State, Kyoto, the residence of the Lin family.

Lin Qingwan opened her eyes in a daze, looked left and right, and was taken aback for a moment.

"Back, back?"

She hugged Qin, walked to the side, stretched out her hand to pat the tree trunk by the roadside, and pinched herself lightly.

It's a feeling, not a dream.

In other words, she really came back.

Lin Qingwan's expression suddenly darkened, and she sighed regretfully.

Why did you come back?
She thought that she would be able to stay with Yin Guo from now on, far away from here.

"Ugh……"

Sighing again, Lin Qingwan identified the direction, hugged Qin in her arms, and walked towards her courtyard.

As soon as he entered the small courtyard, he saw several boxes placed in the courtyard, and there were bursts of laughter from the room.

Lin Qingwan walked into the room quickly.

Seeing her, the people in the room laughed a little less.

The beautiful woman sitting on the main seat waved her hand, and the maids beside her immediately stopped laughing, and after saluting, they left the room.

Lin Qingwan walked over.

"Mother, the one in the yard is..."

The beautiful woman hurriedly raised her hand, interrupted her words, and said emphatically.

"Call Auntie!"

Lin Qingwan put the piano in her arms aside.

"There's no one else here, what's wrong with calling out?"

The beautiful woman picked up the shelf and leaned back on the back of the chair.

"Rules are rules. If you are used to barking and barking wrongly in front of others, you will not be the only one who will be punished."

Lin Qingwan sighed.

"Okay, Auntie, what are these in the yard? Has anyone come here today?"

Hearing these words, the face of the beautiful woman suddenly softened, and she even smiled.

"Yes, Prime Minister Zuo's mansion sent a matchmaker over to propose marriage!"

Prime Minister Zuo's Mansion?

Lin Qingwan was taken aback for a moment, then turned her eyes and forgot to look outside the room, unable to believe it.

"Propose marriage? Is it me?"

The beautiful woman stood up and walked towards her with a swaying figure.

"Isn't it you? Then the third son of Prime Minister Zuo's family has taken a fancy to you and plans to take you as his concubine!"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to caress Lin Qingwan's face.

"My girl has grown up too, and when it's time to get married, my aunt is very happy!"

"no!"

Lin Qingwan stretched out her hand and pushed away the beautiful woman's hand, "Have you already agreed?"

The smile on the beautiful woman's face faded.

"Of course I agree, who are you, who is the son of Prime Minister Zuo's family, you are lucky to be married as a concubine!"

"But mother, everyone in the capital knows that Guo Zongcheng is a dandy who causes trouble all day long and hangs around the place of fireworks. If you ask me to marry, won't that push me into the fire pit?"

When it came to the last sentence, Lin Qingwan's face was filled with anger, and her volume was raised a lot.

The beautiful woman's face turned cold.

"What fire pit? That's the son of Prime Minister Zuo's family!"

"What's wrong with Prime Minister Zuo? Can you change the fact that he's an asshole?"

"Lin Qingwan!"

The beautiful woman raised her hand and slapped Lin Qingwan's face.

"Do you really understand the pros and cons? How beneficial is it to your father to have a relationship with Prime Minister Zuo? How beneficial is it to our family?"

"What's more, the Prime Minister Zuo fell in love with you and came to propose marriage on his own initiative!"

"Do you want me to offend Prime Minister Zuo by letting your father and mother reject the matchmaker? Make it difficult for your father?"

Lin Qingwan kept her head sideways and looked at her with blank eyes.

"So, you have to sell your daughter to a scumbag and let her be like you, to be someone else's little one?!"

Snapped!
Another slap fell on the face, and the beautiful woman's chest heaved in anger.

"What's wrong with being a concubine? What else can we do without you? It's better than marrying a small family and becoming a busy life!"

"That's what you think."

Lin Qingwan glared.

The beautiful woman immediately sneered.

"My thoughts, my thoughts are for your good! For your future!"

"For my own good..."

Lin Qingwan laughed, feeling cold.

"Whether it's for my own good or not, you know for yourself."

The beautiful woman snorted coldly and turned her head away.

"Since ancient times, marriages have always been ordered by parents. According to the words of the matchmaker, you can marry if you agree, and you must marry if you disagree!"

After the words fell, he shouted outside the house.

"Come here, take the second young lady back to the house and keep her under strict supervision. If she's gone...be careful with your skin!"
