Luoyang Brocade

help it.
Just let go of what I said tonight, big brother just pretend he never came!”

Ling Xiao: “…”

Was she playing with him?

Such an important plot was related to life, and it was related to the future of the family of the fifth houses…
It is more about his future prospects.
Can you play such a play?

Ling Xiao's face was not very good-looking, but his feet did not move half a step.

“Since Dage doesn't believe me, why don't you leave?” Ling Jing asked knowingly.

Ling Xiao’s mouth twitched a few times before he squeezed out a few words: “I don’t believe you.
However, I will be comfortable if you give me a written letter.”

Ling Jingyi heard this request, but it was not unexpected, but she refused without thinking: “No.
This kind of thing should never leave behind written evidence.
In case you fail or you betray us by showing that to Madam Li, we siblings will be like fish on a cutting board.”

“You can't believe me, why should I trust you? If we can't trust each other, let's forget about tonight.”

“I hate Li, I don't want to see her happy.
And you, want more.
You want the fifth house's family business, want our father's favor, want everyone's respect.
You want so much, but you don't want to take a risk; how can there be such a good thing in the world?”

Speaking of this, Ling Jingshu's pretty face was cold, and the tone was also a bit cold: “I am done with what I have to say, you can decide the rest.”

……

This time, Ling Xiao stayed silent for a long time.

He thought of the horror of his mother's death, the desolation of being an illegitimate son, the disdain for him in Madam Li's occasional looks, and the thought of his father's love for the younger brother…

The resentment and unwillingness that were usually buried deep in the heart now surged up all at once, converging into a turbulent current that churned incessantly in the mind.

His biological mother died indirectly in the hands of Madam Li, and the oppressed life he has lived in recent years was also thanks to Madam Li.
Does he have to continue living his life at the mercy of others?

There was such a good opportunity in front of him, why didn’t he dare to give it a go?

Ling Ting’s heartbeat was getting faster and faster, and the palm of his hand was wet.
The blood of the whole body was pouring into his mind, and his handsome face was red.

Ling Jingshu's mind gradually settled down.

If Ling Ting was unwilling, he could have already turned and left.
This was so unresolved at this time, precisely because his mind was in turmoil.

Seeking wealth and danger.
Ling Ting will definitely nod!

“Meimei, (3) I have one last question.” Ling Ting finally opened his mouth: “You will marry later, and you will have a dowry.
But Ah Xiao, how can you be sure that he is willing to give up the family business?”

Ling Jingshu did not hesitate to say: “Ah Xiao will have a better future after going to the Capital.
This family business seems to be more than a thousand dollars in your eyes, but in the eyes of our siblings, it is like a chicken rib.”

Saying that she raised her eyes looking at Ling Xiao: “Dage, if you make up your mind, we will form an alliance today, and each of us will make a poisonous oath.
No matter what happens or doesn't happen, we must keep our mouths shut and never reveal things that we talked about tonight.” ”

Ling Xiao bite his teeth and resolutely said: “Okay.”

Ling Jingshu suppressed all her emotions and solemnly swore, “As God is my witness, I, Ling Jingshu, make this vow.
As long as my dage keeps his promise, my didi (4) Ling Xiao and I will never return to Dingzhou in this lifetime, and we will be willing to give up our inheritance of the family estate.
If we ever break this oath, may thunder strike me, Ling Jingshu, and may I die a miserable death.”

Ling Ting solemnly made a vow as well, with a firm determination in his heart.

After each made an oath, it was considered an alliance.
Talking again, there was no more twists and turns.

“Are you and Ah Xiao really going tomorrow?”

“The luggage has been packed.
I will leave with dàbó (5) tomorrow morning.”

“Does the Lu brothers know that you are going?” Ling Xiao subconsciously asked.

Ling Jingshu looked indifferent: “What relationship do I have with them that I have to let them know what I am doing.”

…….
It seems that Ling Jingshu really did not like the Lu brothers. Maybe it was to hide the truth from them, so he kept the matter of going to the capital a secret.

Ling Ting’s thoughts were not entangled in this issue, and he whispered: “Meimei, if things come to fruition in the future, I will order someone to deliver a letter to you.”
