Chapter 86 The Imperial Edict
Mrs. Wang glanced at Jia Min triumphantly, as if Jia Baoyu was about to be made a marquis and appointed as a prime minister. However, Jia Baoyu looked frightened and didn't know what to do.
Why did the emperor suddenly summon him? What if he couldn't answer the emperor's questions? What if he said something wrong and angered the emperor?
When Jia Baoyu thought of this, sweat broke out on his forehead, completely unlike his usual generous and enthusiastic self.
Mrs. Wang looked as if she had been conferred the title of the first rank of imperial decree. She smiled so much that her teeth were showing and she embraced Jia Baoyu. She said to him in a boastful tone, "Have you remembered what the Majesty has said? You must prepare well in the next few days and don't let the Majesty down."
Jia Baoyu nodded stiffly. His originally happy and relaxed mood completely disappeared. He felt as if a huge stone was weighing on his heart, so heavy that it made it hard for him to breathe.
He just wanted to live one day at a time and had no lofty ambitions, but these people forced him to make progress and even wanted to carve those vulgar words "official career, economics and knowledge" on his face.
But he couldn't resist, nor did he dare to resist.
Jia Baoyu remained silent and got himself drunk amid the laughter and joy of the crowd, as if that would allow him to escape.
Mrs. Wang asked the maids to help him back, and said to Lady Jia with a smile: "Baoyu must have been too happy, so he drank a little too much. This child is really..."
After saying this, she pretended to sigh, but no one would think that she was blaming Jia Baoyu for drinking too much. Even if one's eyes were blurry, one could still see the complacency and arrogance on Mrs. Wang's face.
Lin Chengyu couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. Jia Baoyu's expression just now looked like he had been beaten ninety-nine times and eighty-one times, and his face was almost drooping to the ground.
Mrs. Wang is really good at telling lies with her eyes open, it's really admirable.
Lin Chengyu was too lazy to talk to such a person, but Madam Wang was unwilling to let him go. She immediately pointed her spearhead at him and lectured him in an elder manner: "Brother Lin, I have something to tell you, but don't get angry when you hear it. Elders always have the best for you."
Lin Chengyu simply laughed, "There was a happy event in the mansion today, so they asked us to come here to have some fun. Second aunt knew that telling people about it would make people angry, so why did she say it out loud and spoil everyone's fun?"
In short, there are only two words - hold it.
Before the Lin family came to Beijing, Mrs. Wang was the mistress of the house. Although the household was managed by Wang Xifeng, the daughter-in-law of the eldest son, everyone knew that Wang Xifeng was her niece, and she would listen to her words.
Everything changed when the Lin family arrived. Mrs. Wang felt in her heart that this family was her nemesis and nothing good would happen whenever she met them.
Mrs. Wang had rarely been refuted by a younger generation like this. She was a little annoyed for a moment, and sneered, "Brother Lin is really very capable now. He even wants to refute the words of the elders. Who knows if he has hooked up with Prince Linhuai? He can't even see the elders in his eyes."
Lin Chengyu was puzzled. Did he have a face that was prone to being bullied? Why did Mrs. Wang stab him every time she saw him? And every time she did it, there was nothing new. She either accused him of being disrespectful to his elders or of being cold-blooded and heartless and not helping his relatives?
"Grandmother, look at what's wrong with my second aunt now. I just didn't want her to spoil everyone's fun, but I didn't expect that she would put such a big hat on my head." Lin Chengyu approached Lady Jia aggrievedly, and she gave up the idea of staying out of it. Didn't Mrs. Wang want to use her status as an elder to pressure him? Then she should just give an eye for an eye.
Lin Daiyu sneered and said to Mrs. Wang respectfully, "Second aunt, please be careful with your words. Although Chengyu is younger and a little naughty, she is usually very polite. Even Second Uncle has praised her for that. Second aunt, are you saying this now to argue with Second Uncle?"
Mrs. Wang's face was as sour as a stone in a toilet. Everyone used to think that she was a very kind-hearted person, but no one knew when her face changed and became sharp and mean.
Lin Chengyu leaned on Grandmother Jia's shoulder pitifully, "I know that my second aunt dislikes me because of that incident, but I don't care about it anymore. My second aunt is still upset. If someone who doesn't know the truth sees it, they might think that it was my fault."
That thing? What was it? Grandmother Jia didn't want too many people to know about the rumor some time ago. Now that Lin Chengyu mentioned it, everyone was confused. You looked at me, I looked at you, all with puzzled expressions.
Mrs. Wang's face changed, and the whispering sounded in her ears. She wanted to rush over and tear Lin Chengyu and Lin Daiyu's mouths, but she didn't dare to. She could only grit her teeth and hold back, "Sister Min's children are really amazing."
Jia Min said indifferently, not bothering to give her any glances, "My two children have been obedient, sensible and filial since they were young. I know that, and there is no need for my second sister-in-law to praise them like this."
Mrs. Wang was so angry that her heart was boiling with rage.
Lin Chengyu whispered, "Second Aunt's eyes look like she wants to eat me."
He was already very handsome, and now that he felt wronged, it seemed that Mrs. Wang was a vicious and evil person bullying the younger generation. Although everyone did not say it, they were dissatisfied with Mrs. Wang in their hearts.
Mrs. Wang hated the Lin family so much that she looked at Lin Chengyu with eyes as if filled with poison, and then looked at Jia Min and Lin Daiyu.
That’s great! This whole family is her nemesis. Once they fall into her hands, she will make them regret going against her.
Mrs. Wang's thoughts could not be concealed and were almost written all over her face. Lady Jia was dissatisfied with her. She used to think that this daughter-in-law was quite acceptable, but she had become more and more outrageous in recent times.
"Okay, don't say anything unhappy. If you disturb everyone's interest, I will beat you." Grandmother Jia said this with a smile, which eased the atmosphere a lot. Even though everyone had their own thoughts in their hearts, they all followed Grandmother Jia's wishes and started talking and laughing again.
After watching this scene, Xue Baochai thought that if she didn't move out, she would be implicated by Mrs. Wang. However, her brother only knew how to play every day. If he moved out, how would she and her mother support the family?
At this moment, Xue Baochai was very envious of Lin Daiyu. Not only did she have a father to rely on, but she also had such a good brother. Even if Lin Ruhai passed away many years later, Lin Daiyu would not have to worry about being without support.
After the servants had prepared the meal, the whole family enjoyed it happily. They then called over the young actors who had just been bought and asked them to sing a few songs to liven up the atmosphere.
The little actors were originally bought from other places for Jia Yunchun's visit to her parents. Most of them were little girls who had not yet grown up. They sang in a humming voice for a long time.
There was a little actor who looked quite similar to Lin Daiyu. Everyone noticed it, but no one dared to say anything.
Mrs. Wang wanted to disgust the Lin family, so after the little actor left the stage, she had someone call him over and said with a smile, "Look everyone, this child looks a bit like Lin girl."
As soon as the voice fell, Jia Min and the others' faces changed. Jia's mother hurriedly asked the maids to help Wang Furen down to sober up. "Your wife is drunk and confused. Why don't you help her down to sober up? There is no need to come again today."
Mrs. Wang was forcibly dragged out by several maids, and her words were blocked by the maids. Although Lady Jia's words were meant to smooth things over, they were also a warning to Mrs. Wang.
Since she herself was merciless, Grandmother Jia would no longer give her face. She was dragged away in front of so many young servants, with her mouth covered and pulled hard. She must have been too embarrassed to see anyone for a while.
Before Jia Min and Lin Chengyu could react, Jia's mother's action interrupted the spell. Before they could say anything, they saw a servant trotting over to report -
"Madam, there's a message from Auntie's mansion saying that Master Lin's appointment has been granted by the imperial decree."
