The Founding of the Red Chamber

Because of the substantial progress with Brother Ah Jing, Tu Xiaosan was so excited that he didn't fall asleep for half the night. The next morning, he got up early to practice exercises, trying to build a good body, so that he can take care of Ah Jing for a long time in the future. Brother Jing.

At that time, everyone went to bed early and woke up early. For example, Lin Yi and Shu Jingyun had the habit of getting up early to fight boxing. The two thought it was very rare for their apprentice to wake up so early.After all, Tu Xiaosan is now a general, not only does he not have women around him, but he is so self-disciplined in martial arts, it's no wonder he has a career today.

Lin Jing, on the other hand, hadn't gotten up yet when he got up early for dinner.Tu Xiaosan explained to Lin Yi, "Ah Jing fell asleep last night and fell asleep in the middle of the night. Tell him to sleep more. I see that his cough is getting better."

Lin Yi didn't say much, thinking that Lin Jing's bad temper, to find a good-tempered partner like Tu Xiaosan, was not in vain for Lin Jing's heart for Tu Xiaosan's business.Lin Yi lived in Hubei for half a month, and was about to return to the imperial capital.

Lin Jing prepared a lot of things, including precious medicinal materials and local products from Hubei, as well as some calligraphy, painting and play equipment he robbed during the war. Anyway, they were all valuable.A whole truck was loaded, not for his brother, but for Mr. Shu.Even the things for the sister-in-law and nephews were handed over by Mr. Toshu, and had nothing to do with his brother.

Lin Yi didn't bother to talk to him, Tu Xiaosan prepared a lot of things for Brother Lin.Together with Xu Nianlin Teng, there are not only the things of filial piety (uncle, uncle), but also the things and letters entrusted (uncle, uncle) to bring to the family.Xu Nian knew that his parents were in the imperial capital, so he wrote a very long letter to his family to reassure them.Lin Teng finally asked Lin Yi quietly, "Uncle, didn't my grandfather take rat poison?"

Lin Yi grimaced and said, "You'll be fine if you do well." Thinking about A Teng's progress, he is really a different kind of person from the second uncle.There is such an eldest grandson in the second uncle's house, Lin Yi is also relieved.

Lin Yi, Shu Jingyun and his party were really seeing each other off when they left, and Lin Jing also followed. In his words, he was going to see Mr. Shu off.After Lin Yi walked far away, Lin Jing sighed softly, and said to Xiaosan, "I said, don't be stubborn all the time. This time, I don't know when we will see you again."

Lin Jing kept his mouth shut, "If you don't see her, you won't see her anymore. Except for husband and wife, who can stay with whom for the rest of their lives."

Tu Xiaosan immediately said, "Third Brother will spend the rest of his life with you."

Lin Jing smiled, "It's nice to say it now."

Tu Xiaosan immediately swears a poisonous oath, "My words must be half false, and I will die badly."

"Okay, okay, it's worth swearing." Lin Jing said, "Just remember it."

"I will remember it, and I will remember it for a lifetime."

Lin Jing smiled, and his mood improved obviously.

As for what Lin Yi said about the situation in Hubei when he returned to the court, it was impossible to say bad things about Hubei anyway.

On the contrary, Lin Yi brought back several carts of things. Leaving aside the Duke's Mansion, even the Second Great Master and Xu's family felt that the children were fighting a war. Why did they get so many valuable things?

The Xu family was better, Xu Shangfei was stationed in Jinzhong first, and there were not many wars, but the Xu family also started as a general, and knew that this kind of reeling bandit had the most spoils in battle.When I received the things my son sent home, although I was a little surprised, it was actually a lot, but it was within my heart's ability to bear it.The second old man’s family would not be successful, the second great man asked the eldest son to discuss it for a long time, the second great man said, "A Teng has only been out with Ah Jing for two years, how did he get so many things?"

Lin Teng's father didn't know either.

The second old lady said about the two of them, "Maybe the reeling bandits got their share after winning battles. Ah Teng followed Ah Jing, and they grew up together as children. Can Ah Jing treat Ah Teng badly?"

The second grandpa was not sure, and said, "Why don't you ask the boss?" The boss was talking about Lin Yi.

The second old lady thought for a while, "It's okay."

After asking Lin Yi, Lin Yi told the second room to keep quiet, and the second room collected the things.However, after the discussion between the second grandpa and the first room, there must be a statement that Lin Teng fought the war and sacrificed his life for it.Of course, we haven't separated yet.Of the things that Lin Teng entrusted someone to send back, Lin Teng's room naturally had the bulk, and the rest would be shared equally among the other rooms.

Lin Teng didn't know that there was a small meeting at home because of the things he brought back.Second Uncle Lin Teng also said privately that he sent his own son as well, knowing that he made so much money fighting the war.This is what the second grandpa knew, and he gave his second son some trouble, and the second grandpa scolded, "I'm so worried that I can't sleep all day long, and you still want to get my grandson away, so why don't you just take medicine and kill me! "

Second Uncle Lin argued, "I'll just say it casually, just say it casually."

Both the Xu family and the Second Great Master felt that the things were extraordinary, and Xu Nian and Lin Teng were all subordinates, so one could imagine the quality of the things Lin Jing sent to the family.Shu Jingyun even got a treasure of Wu Daozi, just this painting, with Shu Jingyun's indifferent temperament, she couldn't hold back on the road, and quietly showed off with Lin Yixian three times.Lin Yi said, "Congratulations, you have gained a good disciple."

Shu Jingyun smiled and cupped her hands, "You're welcome." Lin Yi couldn't be more depressed.

After getting the imperial capital, Shu Jingyun naturally gave the other things to the Yue clan according to the list. When the Yue clan cleaned up, she didn't dare to ask the ordinary servants and maids to move, and she brought her confidants to come in person.Among them is a piece of Wang Xizhi's "Han Qie Tie" that Lin Jing gave to his sister-in-law. The Yue family didn't dare to let others know about such a treasure, so they quietly told her husband at night.Lin Yi said, "Jiangnan is rich and rich. No matter how rare such a thing is, put it away carefully and don't say anything about it."

It can be seen that Lin Jing is rich and powerful now. Since Lin Jing, he can imagine how rich the Guanwai Army is today.

The sweep of Jiangnan this time was not victorious in battle, but for the Guanwai army who swept Jiangnan once, they gained a lot.Lin Jing is not someone who has never seen the world, and Tu Xiaosan is not stingy, even if he shares the spoils, Tu Xiaosan always lets Lin Jing take the lead.Lin Jing discussed with Tu Xiaosan, "Except for groceries, although many of these things are rare treasures, right now, they should not be eaten or drunk. When the world is in chaos, gold and silver are the most used. Why don't you sell them slowly and exchange them for gold and silver?" .”

Tu Xiaosan said, "You pick a few rare ones and keep them, and sell the rest."

Lin Jing nodded.

Therefore, Lin Jing and Tu Xiaosan didn't store much loot here unless they were rare and rare, and they all found other merchants to sell slowly.At the end of the new year, the imperial court finally had a new order. Guan Tingyu was appointed as the general who conquered the South, and Lin Yi, Minister of the Ministry of War, temporarily led the Muzhou Army. Guan Tingyu will go south today.

Guan Tingyu hadn't arrived yet, but Guan Xiaoer's letter arrived first.

Just Guan Xiaoer's letter was one foot thick, and Lin Jing didn't read it for three days.Tu Xiaosan said sourly, "You are recuperating, so don't worry about it. When you can't read it, just this letter, and you can't finish reading it in three to five months."

Lin Jing said, "Guan Xiaoer and I haven't seen each other for over ten years."

"The husband and wife have not seen each other for more than ten years, and they have to have two hearts. What's more, you, you are a group of hot-hearted people. In my opinion, people say that they can't have other good friends. Otherwise, in these years, I have never seen him go out of the customs. Send you a letter?"

"You're not finished!" Lin Jing said, "Ever since Guan Xiaoer sent this letter, you've been babbling nonstop. What's the matter with you, third brother, you're not such a narrow-minded person."

Tu Xiaosan snorted coldly, sat down and poured a cup of tea to eat, and after eating half a cup of tea, he said, "We've known each other for more than ten years, why haven't you thought of me so much?"

"We are together all day long, so we need to think about it."

"Ah Jing, in my heart, Xiaosi has to be behind you. I ask you, where is my brother in your heart?"

Lin Jing said, "The male ranks first."

Tu Xiaosan was overjoyed, "Really?"

"Of course it's true. My brother used to be number one, but now you are number one." Lin Jing said as soon as he opened his mouth.

Tu Xiaosan's eyes were full of seriousness, "Ah Jing, I don't want to be ranked first, but I have to be in front of Guan Xiaoer."

"Don't worry." Lin Jing took Tu Xiaosan's hand, "Third Brother, Guan Xiaoer and I have been friends since we were young and have been friends for many years. But you and I live together and work together. , in my heart, if we want to make a strong distinction between who is more important and who is more important, then we will be sorry for our friendship over the years."

Tu Xiaosan held Lin Jing's long and thin fingers, twisted them lightly, and lowered her dark eyes, hiding all her thoughts.
