Daiyu shook her head and said with a smile: "There are too many things in the house, and they are all packed in boxes and cages. Dad went to see him, so I left Brother Qiang to watch and send them back to the new house."

When Jia Mu heard the words, she almost didn't know what to say, and said, "There is no housekeeper in the house? How can he let him take care of these things?"

Seeing that everyone was looking at her with different eyes, Daiyu lowered her eyes and said with a soft smile, "It's fine if you don't know the housekeeper well. Besides, Brother Qiang is almost inferior to me in front of Daddy. There are many things. Daddy asked him to do it. Daddy told him last night that he would be allowed to live in the East Road Courtyard after he came back, so that he can study well, and he has some things to take care of.”

When Sister Feng heard the words, she looked at Baoyu first, and saw that Young Master Fenghuang was in a daze at the moment, staring blankly at Daiyu who was sitting next to Jia Mu on the soft couch on the high platform, as if she suddenly felt like a different person ...

Sister Feng rolled her eyeballs quietly, and then laughed loudly: "Uncle is very scheming, Qiang'er is a good child of the Jia family, so I let uncle go! But I'm afraid this time it won't be as uncle wants, Mr. Didn't the wife tell the master to go to the South Province to write a letter? Alas, Dongfu Zhen's big brother is gone, and even Rong'er has suffered. Now she is pointing to Qiang'er to inherit the ancestral title and take over the Dongfu. .How can he go to the Lin family? If Uncle doesn’t nod, let him go and fight with Uncle Jing.”

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard her humorous words, but seeing that Daiyu gave her an angry look, she said with a smile: "You are the one to plan! Brother Qiang told Daddy that he is not willing to be a prince, and wants to have a good time studying with Daddy." , to take the imperial examination."

Mother Jia, who had endured for a long time, heard the words and couldn't hold back her anger any longer. She slapped the soft couch and shouted: "Let's not let him! Isn't the Ning Mansion his ancestor's foundation? Isn't the old Duke his ancestor? This evil is muddled!" How can you let him be presumptuous?"

Daiyu's face turned pale, Mrs. Wang sat beside her with a dumb face, and Li Wan didn't dare to say more. When Sister Feng saw Jia's mother angry, she couldn't persuade her for a while. Baoyu was still in a daze, but she sat down Tanchun stood up and laughed, "If the old lady teaches me a lesson, I'd better wait until Brother Qiang comes to teach me a lesson. Your old Feng Jun has always loved Sister Lin the most, why are you scolding her now?"

Mother Jia came back to her senses when she heard the words, and hurriedly put Daiyu into her arms, and blamed herself with a smile: "I'm not scolding you, I'm scolding that evil person who is so successful! Stay with me at home, play jokes with my sisters, and don’t bother with that idiot anymore. You don’t need him to worry about your family. Since your old man has no reliable stewards for the time being, I will borrow him as a housekeeper, and I will send you a housekeeper in a while. It is a hundred times better to keep people in the past than that evil obstacle."

Baoyu finally came to his senses and forgot about his friendship with Jia Qiang. Hearing Jia Mu's words, 1 people agreed, and nodded again and again: "It's very true, what the ancestor said is very true! Sister Lin came back this time, Even Uncle Lin has returned to Beijing, so we don’t have to leave anymore. My sisters miss you so much, they even accepted your New Year’s gift during the Chinese New Year, and they will each give you a New Year’s gift when they come back, so keep your favorite!”

Daiyu smiled when she heard the words, but she thought of the little theater troupe that Jia Qiang had sent, and thought that when the home was settled properly, she would invite the sisters to visit and let them see those little theater officials as well.

Seeing Daiyu smile, Baoyu thought she agreed, and immediately became happy again.

But she didn't want Daiyu to come back to her senses, so she said to Jia Mu seriously: "I should have listened to my grandmother, and I was willing to study with my sisters and become a female celebrity, but my father's health has never been good, and he can't give up soup. I am always busy with business and forget to take medicine. My aunt also persuaded me, but my father didn’t always listen to her. He could only refuse me as a daughter who served the decoction myself. My father always told me to go back to Beijing. Come back here to live, so no one bothers him anymore, but how can I rest assured? My father is at his knees, after all, I am the only daughter..."

This……

Baoyu fell into a sluggish state again. Mrs. Wang saw it, and her heart ached like a knife.

Although Jia's mother was helpless, she still wanted to keep someone, but at the moment, she was only thinking about how to make Jia Qiang obedient and accept the title, and she didn't have the energy to think about other things for a while.

Regarding Daiyu's matter, after finishing Jia Qiang's matter, she will discuss it with Lin Ruhai in person.

Nothing happened for a while, and Mother Jia asked Li Wan to take Daiyu, Baoyu and other sisters to go down to catch up on the old days, while she discussed business matters with Mrs. Wang and Sister Feng...

……

Behind the Rongqing Hall, in the Dahua Hall.

After everyone was seated, Li Wan looked at Daiyu and said with a smile, "Hair'er is getting better and better now, much stronger than before, not like a beauty who will fall down when the wind blows."

Seeing that Baoyu was following behind dejectedly, as if he had lost his soul, Tanchun stepped forward and pulled Daiyu with a smile, "Sister Lin, why are you talking about Brother Qiang now, and why do you care about Brother Qiang?"

Li Wan, Yingchun and Xichun all laughed after hearing the words.

Daiyu pinched Tan Chunqiao's face angrily, and said: "You talk too much, why did I ignore my second elder brother? I did it at the door, it was the old lady and Feng girl who always asked Brother Qiang I just mentioned him. Otherwise, why should I mention him? Besides, they are all my sisters, so which one is different if I mention it?"

Tanchun laughed and said: "My old sister Daolin has really changed. Looking at it now, after all, the old saying is good, the country is easy to change, and the nature is hard to change. Sister Lin's mouth is still that knife mouth!"

Everyone laughed more and more, and even Baoyu seemed to have eased the desolation in his heart because of Daiyu's words, and laughed along with him.

After laughing, he stepped forward and said, "Sister Lin, when you didn't come back, the sisters gathered together to write poems during the New Year's festival. They wrote some excellent poems. Would you like to take a look?"

Daiyu laughed and said, "Coincidentally, during the Chinese New Year, my father also took us to compose poems together, and got a few excellent poems, do you want to hear it?"

Chapter 232 Tear Your Face

Imperial City, Daming Palace.

Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Inside the Xinuang Pavilion, Emperor Long'an looked at the emaciated Lin Ruhai, his eyes were full of worry, and asked the judge of Wang Laoyuan beside him, "What happened to Lin Aiqing?"

When Lin Ruhai first entered the palace for an audience, his thin appearance really made Emperor Long'an jump.

Even though Lin Ruhai said he was in good health, he immediately recruited the imperial physician with the best medical skills from the imperial hospital.

Emperor Long'an didn't care much about the life and death of ordinary courtiers.

Dayan has been a country for a hundred years, and now the most indispensable thing is officials.

But Emperor Long'an didn't want him to make any mistakes for a reusable humerus minister like Lin Ruhai.

After Wang Laoyuan judged and treated him for a cup of tea, Fang said to Emperor Long'an: "Healed from a serious illness, although the bones and bones are still weak, but the pulse is calm, as long as you rest in peace for a few months, don't overwork and get tired able to recover.”

Emperor Long'an heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and asked Dai Quan to add a chair for Lin Ruhai.

Lin Ruhai was greatly shocked, and refused three times to no avail. After knocking three times to thank him, he carefully sat down.

Emperor Long'an didn't seem to care about these things, he waved his hands and said, "Qing has great honor in the country and in me, and deserves this kind of grace. I heard that Aiqing was suffering from abuse, and Jia Qiang invited Western monks to use magic medicine to save her? "

Lin Ruhai heard the words, did not hide anything, told the truth, and finally said: "Unfortunately, there is no such magic medicine as the swallow, only in the wild lands of the West. However, the minister has asked Jia Qiang to contact the Western Fan The monk tried to buy some as much as possible, and then transported them back to the capital and handed them over to the imperial hospital for emergency needs."

Hearing this, Emperor Long'an nodded in satisfaction, with a rare smile on his face.

This smile fell into the eyes of Wang Laoyuan's judge, but it stirred up thousands of waves in his heart, and he had a new understanding of Lin Ruhai's holy family.

After Wang Laoyuan sentenced him, Emperor Long'an regained his solemnity. His previous behavior was to convey to the outside world how much he valued Lin Ruhai, and also to protect Lin Ruhai.

Otherwise, it would be enough for Lin Ruhai to suffer in the future if he only dealt with the open and dark arrows from outside, let alone doing any work.

Emperor Long'an said bluntly: "When you come back this time, I planned to let you be directly promoted to the University of Wenyuan Pavilion, enter the military plane, and take charge of the household department. It's just a lesson from Han Qing and the others. The archery target of the rebellious minister. The Wenyuange University scholar is reserved for you. You first enter the household department and become the left servant. The household department secretary has just been vacant. You will act as the household department's left servant and take care of me. The national treasury, pursue the deficit of the national treasury! There are 600 million taels of surplus silver in the accounts of the household department, but the treasury is already empty, only a little over 100 million silver. Last year, there was a severe drought in Shandong. Kong, even borrowed money from the Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager, Empress, Concubine Mei and other concubine families to tide over the difficulties. The money you got back from Yangzhou Mansion, after returning them, is not much left. What if there is another natural disaster this year?"

Lin Ruhai's expression was extremely solemn when he heard this.

Clearing up the shortfall, this is a big thunder!

How many old ministers at the beginning of Jing lived an extremely extravagant life by borrowing money from the Ministry of Household Affairs.

But it's not just the old officials of Jingchu?

It is the clan kings, the relatives of the emperor and the relatives of the country, especially there are many nobles and nobles, who is not a big debtor?

Why can Yuanping Xunchen attack two generations in a row with the original title, unlike the founding heroes, as long as the second generation does not make military exploits, they will immediately attack.

It was because during the time of Emperor Shizu, the imperial court really had no money to make large rewards, so they used this to reward meritorious deeds.

From this, we can see how poor all those nobles are...

But no matter how poor they were, they still had to keep their lintels from losing their face and their airs, so none of them borrowed money from the household department. They believed that the Tian family and the court owed them.

In the late period of Jingchu, the Supreme Emperor had thought about asking the capital officials and princes and dukes to pay back the money.

But later, the resistance was too great, so I put out this idea.
