Chapter 589 Ms. Zhuo's Extraordinary: Young and Happy (7)

  Zuo Lin finally got on the carriage, and Mrs. Sheng refused to stay for a moment and went straight out of the city.

  Waiting for the carriage all the way out of the city, Zhuo Lin asked: "Take the carriage to the northeast? Can you catch the cousin's wedding?" From the capital to the four northern provinces, it would take at least half a month to ride the carriage. Now that there is a train from Beijing to the four northern provinces, it is much better than a horse-drawn carriage in terms of time, cost or even comfort.

  Ms. Sheng said, "What train do you take? There are many people on the train, and there is nothing dirty!"

  Zuo Lin was a little bit funny, "Did you come to the capital by carriage all the way from Jiangnan?"

  The second brother of the Sheng family, who accompanied them in a car, said, "We went north by Wei’s boat, and we only changed the carriage when we arrived at the Beijing Ferry."

  Zuo Lin nodded, almost forgetting that she could still take the waterway.

  But even so, Zhuo Lin didn't really believe that Mrs. Sheng really planned to take a carriage all the way to the four northern provinces.

  Sure enough, after leaving the capital, the carriage did not go to the northeast, but turned to the south.

  "Where are you taking me?" Zhuo Lin sat in the carriage, glanced at Mrs. Sheng, who was leaning in the carriage and closed her eyes, and turned her gaze to the second brother Sheng.

  Second Brother Sheng looked at his sister, looking a little embarrassed, and looked at his mother lowered her head and said nothing.

  Zuo Lin sneered, "Do you believe it or not I will jump off this carriage now?"

  Second Brother Sheng was a little helpless, “Sister, stop making trouble. This carriage runs fast, and it’s you who hurt when you fall.”

   Zhuo Lin smiled, “Yes, it’s me who hurts me when I fell, but isn’t it you who lost it?” The second brother Sheng’s face changed slightly, and he didn't say anything.

  Ms. Sheng, who has not spoken, opened her eyes and looked at Zhuo Lin indifferently: “Don’t say that you were disabled by a fall today. Even if you fall to death, you still need to go where you should go.”

  Zuo Lin stared at her solemnly, "So, you really intend to sell me."

Mrs. Sheng's face became very ugly. She has always been proud of her identity and family. Such an arrogant person naturally cannot tolerate others saying that she sells her daughter, although everyone knows that it is true.

   Just like marrying the magnificent Sheng Zhuoyan to the young master Wei who is weak and destined for a long time, who can’t understand what is going on? But who dare to really speak out in front of her?

  "You should have been married long ago at your age. The family has chosen a marriage for you. All you need to do is to comply." Mrs. Sheng said coldly.

   "How much did you charge?" Zhuo Lin asked mercilessly, vowing to tear off her last fig leaf.

  "..." There was silence inside the carriage, except for the sound of wheels running over the ground and the sound of horses clacking on the road.

  The dignified atmosphere in the carriage made the second brother Sheng feel a little unbearable, so he had to cough lightly, "Well, I'll go back and see Big Brother."

  Except for the older sisters, the women in their family are gentler, while the mother and younger sister are stronger than the other.

   Zhuo Lin chuckled, and suddenly stretched out her hand to hold the collar of Brother Sheng. Second Brother Sheng was taken aback, before he had time to speak, he saw Zhuo Lin out of nowhere and put a gun on his chin.

   "Little...little sister, what are you doing?" Brother Sheng was very scared, and quickly trembled. Why does she have a gun on her body? !

   Zhuo Lin smiled and said, "Second brother, why did my mother sell me in such a hurry this time?"

  Second Brother Sheng stared at the gun tube carefully, "What is it? Don’t talk nonsense, little girl, mother just wants you to see each other. That family is also a wealthy household in the north, you won’t suffer a lot when you marry."

  Zuo Lin glanced at the green-faced Mrs. Sheng and said, "So my mother is just worried that I can't get married? That's okay. Let's go back to the capital now, and I will get married tomorrow."

Brother Sheng was a little surprised. He only listened to Zhuo Lin. "A few days ago, there were still many people begging me in Beijing. I still prefer scholars, and one of them happened to be a middle school teacher not far from our school. They are also college students and they are young. It’s only three years older than me and looks pretty good. I think it’s acceptable."

  "Middle school teacher?" asked the second brother Sheng.

Zhuo Lin smiled and said, "Yes, it seems like someone from a small town around the capital, now it can be considered motivated to be able to stand firm in the capital. Anyway, I don’t need him to raise it anyway. After we get married, we will fight together in the capital. It’s not difficult to live a life. So my parents and my two elder brothers don’t have to worry about me? Mother, are you okay?"

   "Shut up!" Mrs. Sheng said coldly. This is what she hates this daughter the most. The eyes are too sharp, the heart is too clear. It's all about understanding, she still wants to say it deliberately embarrassing.

"What do you want to do? Want to kill your brother? Or do you want to kill me as well? You try it, I want to see what kind of evil spirit the Sheng family raises!" Madam Sheng sneered, obviously. Determined not to shoot.

  Zuo Lin was not surprised, nodded and said, “It’s really not good to kill with your own hands, then mother...Let’s gamble on luck. Whoever will die depends on God’s will.”

Mrs. Sheng was taken aback, Zhuo Lin suddenly raised the curtain and said to the person who drove the car outside, "Stop, go down!"

  The people driving outside had heard the conversation inside, but the host didn't dare to act rashly without order. Hearing Zhuo Lin's voice, he reined in, and when she turned around, she was shocked to see the gun in Zhuo Lin's hand, "Second, second lady?!!!"

   "Go down." Zhuo Lin said lightly.

  The coachman did not dare to delay or look at Mrs. Sheng, and quickly jumped out of the car.

  The car in the back saw that it had stopped in front and had to stop. The big brother Sheng Jia behind was about to jump out of the car and ask about the situation. Zhuo Lin had already raised her hand and fired a shot outside, "Big brother, don't move."

  "……"

  Zuo Lin looked at Madam Sheng with a smile, and said, "Mother, let's play a game."

Mrs. Sheng looked at Zhuo Lin coldly, and Zhuo Lin said, "I still have five bullets in my gun. I will shoot five shots forward. If the horse stops and we are still alive, even if I lose. If I die, You sell my body to whomever you want, no complaint."

  "Little girl, you...Don't be impulsive..." Brother Sheng was frightened and shivered by the smile on Zhuo Lin's face.

  The horse they were pulling the wagon was not a military horse, and the horse was already restless just after the shot. If Zhuo Lin hit the horse with a single shot, it would cause the horse to go crazy and eventually the carriage overturned.

   Zhuo Lin said, "I'm not impulsive, second brother, don't be afraid. Even if you die, there is still a big brother in our family who inherits incense.

  "..." Am I worried about this?

   Zhuo Lin said, "Otherwise you tell me why the mother is so anxious? I can just play this game with my mother."

  Second Brother Sheng looked at Zhuo Lin and Mrs. Sheng, whether he had accumulated too much prestige or did he dare not disobey his mother.

   Zhuo Lin said: “After I shoot, even if I regret it myself, it’s too late.” While holding the trigger finger moved slightly, the second brother Sheng couldn’t help but stretch out his hand to grab Zhuo Lin’s gun.

  Zuo Lin started without mercy, relying on her position to take advantage of her position, she pressed hard and hit him in the face with a shot.

  Second Brother Sheng suddenly almost couldn't breathe with pain, and tears couldn't stop streaming down.

  Second Brother Sheng was originally a weak scholar, even if he was physically stronger than Zhuo Lin, his strength was limited. Zhuo Lin went out to study early, although she was not a good skill, but she still had some means of self-defense.

Mrs. Sheng's face was pale, she was trembling with anger, her eyes were staring at her daughter, but she was unwilling to admit defeat anyway.

Zhuo Lin's expression was much more calm, and she laughed softly, "Mother, don't look at me like this. It stands to reason that you give birth to me and raise me. I shouldn't do this to you. But... if you just want me to pay you back The grace of nurturing, I can give you the life I want."

Mrs. Sheng gritted her teeth and said: "I just want you to get married! Which girl is not like this? Ayan was the same back then. Why are you special?"

Zhuo Lin said: "Although you did not give me the right to choose my life, I can give you the right to choose my death. Besides, you can't control anything about me. Do you really just want me to get married? Not including After getting married, be a good wife and mother, and by the way try to subsidize her family? Then the blood splattered in my bridal chamber on the night of my wedding or one day I would kill someone at my husband’s house, I guess you don’t mind?"

  Mrs. Sheng almost roared, "Sheng Jiasheng, you raised you, what's wrong with you now to report?!"

   Zhuo Lin's eyes were cold, "I can also repay the Sheng Family's grace of birth and support, why must I sacrifice my life?"

Mrs. Sheng sneered, somewhat disdainfully, "You? How capable can you be? How many years will it take?"

   "..." Zhuo Lin's smile was a little bit more bitter and helpless, and she shook her head and said, "Forget it, mother, in that case... let's gamble on our lives."

   "No, don't..." Brother Sheng clutched his tearful face, and trembled: "Sister...Don't, let me go! Let me go!"

   "Let's talk."

  Second Brother Sheng paused and shook his body and said: "Mum... Mother wants to donate a position with the same knowledge to the eldest brother. It costs fifty thousand or fifty thousand taels of silver."

   Zhuo Lin was unmoved, and said lightly: "What else?"

   "Also...Also, I lost some money when I did business with people."

"How many?"

  Second Brother Sheng swallowed, "Ten, hundreds of thousands taels..."

   Zhuo Lin said, "It seems that the Wei family doesn't want to raise such a large group of **** as the Sheng family?"

  Wei’s family is a wealthy Jiangnan but not a stupid man with a lot of money. Zhuo Lin has some understanding of the Sheng family since she was a child. The girl didn't say anything. She was locked up at home to learn what piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, three observances and four virtues. But these men and wives, the pomp is bigger than the other.

  And the more declining, the bigger the pomp, as if this is the only way to tell the world that the Sheng family is still prosperous.

  Zuo Lin once heard her sister talk about it, saying that although the Wei family is rich, but in terms of pomp, I am afraid that it is not as good as the Sheng family. The Sheng family also took this for granted. How can a nouveau riche like the Wei family be qualified to compare with them?

  Second Brother Sheng said carefully, "Um...Wei's house has been a little messed recently. The eldest sister has never been..."

  Zuo Lin understands that Wei's family has a large population and the family is already messy. After her elder sister has been married and has not been pregnant, she is afraid that it is not easy to live in her husband's house.

  Naturally, the Wei family was impatient to deal with blood-sucking worms like the Sheng family. Now that the Sheng family is short of 200,000 taels, the Wei family will naturally not take care of it. You know, 200,000 taels is at least more than half of Weijia's annual profit.

   Zhuo Lin asked: "Who is my mother going to sell me to?"

Brother Sheng said: "Tongcheng Zheng family, the youngest son of the Zheng family. The Zheng family said, as long as you are willing to marry, the Zheng family is willing to give 300,000 taels of betrothal gifts." This betrothal gift is definitely a big deal, although now there is no money. It was valuable in the early years, but it is still a huge sum of money that ordinary people can hardly imagine.

  The wealthiest place in the south of the Yangtze River is only 50 thousand taels from the fifth grade. This shows how high the price of 300,000 taels is.

  If only the official donation is used, the Sheng family can use the 300,000 taels to donate six five-rank official.

  Zuo Lin was a little curious, "Why does the Zheng family give so many dowry gifts?" After her sister got married that year, the Wei family's dowry did not have that number.

Brother Sheng hesitated for a while before he whispered, "Then...the young man of the Sheng family, there is something wrong with his brain. The ancestor of the Zheng family was also a high-ranking official. Now Mrs. Zheng's family is also a second-rank official of the imperial court, and ordinary girls don’t see it. Too much..." The Zheng family of ordinary people look down upon the girl, who is worthy of the family background, who would want to marry a daughter to someone who has a brain problem? So I can only spend money.

  As long as enough money is spent, there will always be a few wealthy families who are short of money who are willing to contribute their daughters, such as the Sheng family.

  Furthermore, the Sheng family and the Zheng family are far apart. If this marriage is really done, people in Jiangnan may not know that the second daughter of the Sheng family has been married to someone with a brain problem.

  Zuo Lin was about to laugh with anger, nodded and said, "Okay, you can go down."

  Second Brother Sheng glanced at Mrs. Sheng, who had a gloomy face, and got out of the car without saying anything.

   There was silence in the carriage. A group of people stood outside but no one dared to approach. After all, Zhuo Lin was the only one with a gun in his hand.

Zhuo Lin looked at Mrs. Sheng with emotion, "Mother, let's go."

   "Wait!" Madam Sheng gritted her teeth with a sullen expression.

Zhuo Lin turned her head slightly to look at her, and Mrs. Sheng said coldly, "Are you serious? Would you rather watch your two brothers suffer? Would you rather die with your mother than contribute to the Sheng family? Don't you? Forget, your two brothers hurt you when you were a kid."

Zhuo Lin was a little funny, "What have they suffered? If you want to be an official, you will not be able to pass the exam. If you lose money in business, you will sell your sister? Mother, is our family really not getting the money?" The Sheng family has no money now. , But there are a lot of assets and antiques uploaded by the ancestors. I really think that even if it is more difficult, it will not be too low.

Mrs. Sheng did not speak, Zhuo Lin slowly said, "No, you just think that selling a daughter is the most cost-effective. After all, the ancestral property uploaded by the ancestors will be gone and the Sheng family will be embarrassed. Since childhood, the mother has suffered from both of them. Brother, but now I guess my mother regrets how she didn't have more girls back then."

Mrs. Sheng sternly said, "I ask you! Are you really so cruel?!"

  Zuo Lin nodded calmly, “Yes, even if I don’t want this life, I won’t let you make a penny by selling me.”

  "Then you go to die!" Madam Sheng said with a twisted expression, "You said that I gave birth to you and raised you, and you are willing to pay me back. Then you die now!"

   "Okay." Zhuo Lin smiled, turning the muzzle to her chin, "You want it, I'll give it to you."

  Ms. Sheng's lips pressed tightly, her eyes fixed on Zhuo Lin's eyes.

  She hoped to see fear or threat in Zhuo Lin’s eyes, but Zhuo Lin’s eyes were very calm from beginning to end, as if what was on her jaw was not a gun but a delicate flower.

Mrs. Sheng finally couldn't help but tremble all over, "You are crazy...you crazy man!"

Zhuo Lin smiled and said, "Mother, you should be grateful that you did not give me time to prepare. You are my biological mother. I really can't help you, but it doesn't mean I don't know what your weakness is. But it’s useless to say these now, goodbye."

Mrs. Sheng opened her mouth, wanting to say something. But for some reason she found that she couldn't make any sound, she could only open her mouth in vain and stared at the girl in horror.

   Seeing that she put her finger on the trigger, her finger began to force slightly, her eyes couldn't help but she found that she was still smiling in horror.

"boom!"

   "Ahhhhh!!!" The gunshots and the woman's screams sounded at the same time.

   "Mother! Little sister!" The Sheng family brothers also heard the horrified voice outside.

  At the same time, there was a male voice that was a little frustrated, "Zuo Lin! How are you? Are you in it?"

Predicting that the blood splattering did not appear, Zhuo Lin was a little surprised listening to the sound coming from the outside, opened the curtain of the carriage and leaned out to look at the person who made the noise, "Fu Zheng? Didn't you go back to the south? "

   Fu Zheng's uniform buttons were scattered, his hair was a bit messy, and there was a little wet sweat on his forehead.

  He is holding Brother Sheng in one hand, and a gun in the other, and the gun is against the temple of Brother Sheng.

   Seeing Zhuo Lin, he was relieved and said, "Are you okay?"

  Zuo Lin smiled, "It's okay, what can I do?"

  Fu Zheng raised his chin slightly, "What's going on inside?" Mrs. Sheng's cry inside hadn't stopped, and it sounded quite oozing.

   Zhuo Lin said: "Scared."

   "..." Fu Zheng didn't want to ask Zhuo Lin what she did to scare her own mother into this way.

   "Why are you here?" Zhuo Lin asked.

  Fu Zhengli straightforwardly said, "Snatching relatives, didn't you send a letter for help?"

   Zhuo Lin said: "My letter does not seem to be for you."

  Fu Zhengdao: "But it's in my hands. Isn't this fate? Can't you go?"

  Zuo Lin nodded and said, "Go."

  Ms. Sheng in the carriage finally calmed down, but the look in Zhuo Lin's eyes was no longer the original arrogance and strength, only the horror and horror remained.

"You fool me?"

   Zhuo Lin smiled and said, "Just kidding with my mother, how could I commit suicide?"

Zhuo Lin got up and jumped out of the carriage, turned to Mrs. Sheng in the carriage, and said, "I will pay the Sheng family's grace for birth and support. Tomorrow I will send the bill back to Sheng's family, and it will take effect after father and mother confirm it."

Mrs. Sheng said: "Do you want to sever ties with the Sheng family?"

Zhuo Lin said, "It's my mother who wants me to pay back my gratitude. As for whether the Sheng family recognizes me or not, you have the final say. But I won't let anyone manipulate my life, even my parents. Mother, don't mess with me. Me. I won't do it on you, but it doesn't mean that I won't touch your baby bumps." After speaking, Zhuo Lin turned to Fu Zhengdao, "Let's go."

  Fu Zheng nodded, and threw Brother Shan aside, and said, "Let's go."

  Big Brother Sheng flushed, "Little, little sister...you can't go."

   Zhuo Lin looked at him condescendingly, "Big brother, do you understand what I said just now? Or you never know, your sister, is not a good person with a soft heart."

Brother Shan couldn't help but shudder at Zhuo Lin's eyes. A group of people watched Fu Zheng help Zhuo Lin get on a horse parked on the side of the road. A moment after they lifted the reins, the two of them would have finished one horse. Departed from the dust.

   "Mother..." After a while, the second brother Sheng walked carefully to the side of the carriage and looked at Mrs. Sheng who was sitting inside, and whispered, "Now...what should I do now?"

Mrs. Sheng glanced at the weak son, and said coldly, "Go away!"

  She has been strong all her life, but her husband and son are weak and incompetent.

  The only character who resembles her is Zhuo Lin, the little daughter who has always made her dissatisfied. Perhaps it is precisely because they are also strong-characters that the care of their mother and daughter has not been close since childhood.

  Now...

Mrs. Sheng closed her eyes and took a deep breath. There was a bit of frustration between her eyebrows.

  If it wasn't for her son who was really disappointed, she wouldn't want to provoke Sheng Zhuolin. She knows the character of the daughter she gave birth to. She is really impressed that Zhuo Lin has really done something to kill her.

   "This wicked girl!" Madam Sheng trembling lips, gritted her teeth.
