The Founding of the Red Chamber

Presumptuously claiming that there is a rift between brothers, angrily burning incense at the ancestral hall to warm people's hearts

Lin Yi regretted that he didn't sew Lin Jing's mouth shut, so that Lin Jing uttered insults as soon as he arrived at the door.

As soon as Lin Yi grasped Lin Jing's small arm, he pressed down the small arm pointing to the big plaque with gold characters on the black background of Duke Cheng'en's Mansion, and said in a deep voice, "Go ahead, it's cold outside."

Lin Jing asked strangely, "Brother, do you think what I said makes sense?"

"I heard from the queen mother's aunt in the palace that the elder brother is the most polite. Our Lin family has always been proud of the empress dowager of the Palace of Mercy. The more so, the more we should act cautiously so as to live up to the teachings of the empress dowager and Your Majesty's respect for the Lin family. Preference." Lin Jing said with a straight face, "Nowadays, our family violated the etiquette and system, I feel very inappropriate, I don't know what the big brother thinks? Let me say, the big brother returned to the imperial capital for the first time. I'm afraid I didn't think of it here, but now I found out and reminded my elder brother. My elder brother hastened to arrange for someone to put down the plaque and tear down the door. I heard from the queen mother's aunt that it is our Lin family's family style to be rich but not arrogant, and poor but not discouraged. Woolen cloth."

Lin Yi unconsciously squeezed Lin Jing's wrist tightly, and said in a deep voice, "I see." As soon as Lin Jing was picked up, the two brothers entered the mansion hand in hand.

With a bit of anger in his heart, Lin Yi dragged Lin Jing into the second door staggeringly and crookedly.Lin Yi's wife, the Yue family, heard that Lin Jing was coming, and she had been waiting at the second gate. Seeing her husband's face was slightly angry, the younger brother-in-law was almost held by her husband, so she hurried forward and said with a smile, "Mr. Take it easy, fourth uncle is still young, how can he keep up with the pace of the uncle, fourth uncle will be tired."

Lin Yi always respected his wife. Although he was angry that Lin Jing was talking nonsense at the gate of the mansion, he also thought that Lin Jing had just returned home. With so many people watching, it was not good to get angry with Lin Jing. , "Ding Xiang and Madam Zhang were given to Jing'er by the Empress Dowager, and there are some other things. They were taken to Jing'er's room to watch and tidy up."

Yue Shiling's close-fitting maid led Ding Xiang and Zhang Mama to go, Lin Yi glanced at Lin Jing, and led them to his and Yue Shi's room.

Now Lin Yi is the head of the family, and he and the Yue family naturally live in the main courtyard. There are eight main rooms in a row, which are very spacious.As soon as he entered the room, there was a warm fruity scent, Lin Jing didn't need to introduce, he first bowed to the Yue family, and smiled before saying anything, "I have seen my sister-in-law."

The Yue family and Lin Yi have been married for seven years, during which they have kept filial piety for six years. They have no children yet. Seeing Lin Jing's beautiful and well-behaved appearance, and being his own uncle, there is no one who is unhappy. The Yue family saluted and smiled, "Fourth uncle Just came back, it's cold outside, let's drink a bowl of hot milk to warm up your body."

Lin Jing said joyfully, "Sister-in-law really loves me and knows that I like to drink goat's milk."

Yue Shi pursed his lips and felt that although this uncle and her husband are siblings, the temperament of the two brothers is very different, which is very interesting.Lin Jing said again, "Spring has just started and the weather is still cold. My sister-in-law is an elderly person, so why go to the second gate to meet me? If I get cold, not only will my heart feel uneasy, but my elder brother will also feel distressed."

Seeing that Lin Jing was so clever at such a young age, the Yue family marveled inwardly, and smiled, "It's nothing more than a look at the second gate."

"Since my sister-in-law loves me, I have something to ask my sister-in-law."

Lin Jing is young, although the Yue family is related to his uncle and sister-in-law, he only treats him as a child, and said with a smile, "We are all a family. If you don't want anything, Fourth Uncle just say it."

Lin Jing took a peek at Lin Yi's black face, leaned towards Yue and said, "Just now I seemed to offend big brother, so my sister-in-law said something nice for me, don't make big brother angry with me, I'll just apologize to big brother With that said, he jumped off the chair, bowed to Lin Yi, and admitted his mistake obediently, "I know I was wrong, big brother."

The Yue clan didn't know the reason, but when Lin Jingchu came home, he saw that he was just a child, and he could have made some earth-shattering mistakes, so he spoke for Lin Jing, "Your elder brother loves you very much, and I will definitely not blame you."

Lin Yiyuan suppressed his anger, and because of the face of Lin Jing's return home, he planned to talk about it later, but he didn't want this kid to be very good, so he dragged Yueshi again.Lin Yi is reticent, but his IQ is not low, so how could he fail to see through Lin Jing's mind.He only had Lin Jing as a direct brother, and he was separated since childhood, and he felt that he owed Lin Jing a little.However, the head of Lin Yi's family has an upright temper. What he despises the most in his life is a sweet-mouthed, smart kid like Lin Jing.

It's also because Lin Jing didn't know Lin Yi well. He made his own decision at the beginning, and knew that Lin Yi was unhappy. He wanted to use the Yue family's face to beg for favors, but it turned out to be the opposite. A few words of joking set Lin Yi on fire. .Lin Yi said to Yue Shi, "Go and see for lunch and add a few more dishes. I have something to tell Jinger."

The Yue family and Lin Yi have been husband and wife for seven years, how can they not see that their husbands are happy and angry, and can't help but persuade, "The fourth uncle came back the first day, and it's not too late to talk about things. The second and third uncles are waiting for the master in the study." Master, why don't you take fourth uncle to see second and third uncles first." Yue was referring to Lin Yi's two concubine brothers and Lin Jing's two concubine brothers, Lin Sa and Lin Duan.

Lin Sa and Lin Duan are both descendants of concubines, although their status is not nobler than Lin Jing, after all they are older and there is no reason for an older brother to greet a younger brother, so they just wait in the study.Moreover, Lin Jing also has a sister-in-law, Lin Ping, whom she has never met.

Lin Yi said, "Understood, you can go now."

The Yue clan had no choice but to wink at Lin Jing, and then went out to make a fuss.In fact, the Yue family has been in charge for a long time, and today is the first time Lin Jingchu has returned home. The lunch cooking has been arranged early in the morning, so there is no need for the Yue family to go and see it in person, but Lin Yi sent the Yue family to talk to Lin Jing.

Lin Jing is also very alert. When he saw Lin Yi sending the Yue family away, he knew that something was wrong. His two black mercury-like eyes rolled slightly, and Lin Jing murmured, "I'm also doing it for the sake of big brother. Brother fuck After worrying about it for half a day, let's look at the face of big brother first."

Lin Yi said coldly, "Yes, you are the only smart person in this world!"

Lin Jing said, "That's not true, but there are not many people who are smarter than me."

Lin Yi pointed at Lin Jing and said, "You don't want to fight!" He didn't know anything, and he dared to point fingers at the title. This was Lin Jing's first day home. If Lin Yi had been raised here since childhood, Lin Yi would have given Lin Jingli It is impossible to establish a rule.

Lin Yi was already majestic, and with such a stern expression on his face, Lin Jing was really a little scared. He wasn't afraid of Lin Yi, but he was afraid that Lin Yi would lose his mind for a while and rush over to beat him up or something.So Lin Jing shrank his neck, very reasonable, and said, "I didn't want to make big brother angry. Big brother has come back to keep his filial piety. Our family was originally the empress dowager's house. Dad passed away. Big brother is the head of the line. You don’t even have a title. If you don’t say a word, the title won’t fall from the sky. Since His Majesty refuses to bestow a title, we should keep our duty and put down the plaque and tear down the door. There’s nothing wrong with it.”

"Even if the court is dissatisfied with the big brother, but there are so many people in the Lin family, there should be someone in the position of Duke Chengen." Lin Jing said, "As a member of the Lin family, I don't even have the right to speak."

Don't look at Lin Jing who was raised in the palace since he was a child and was named by Emperor Zhaode. He doesn't like Emperor Zhaode at all in his heart, and his opinion of Emperor Zhaode is not ordinary.Emperor Zhaode did not give face to the Lin family, that is, he despised Queen Mother Lin.Now, his eldest brother Shouxiao has returned, and he has no official position or title. Wouldn't it make people look down on the Lin family.

Don't think that you can despise all living beings if you are an emperor. If you are not supported by all beings, you can be considered a shitty emperor.Lin Jing held his breath early, and he ordered the plaque to be demolished, not to embarrass Lin Yi, but to slap Emperor Zhaode in the face - that's how Ni Ma treated the aunt's family.

Empress Dowager Lin treated Emperor Zhaode not only as a aunt, but also as a nurturing grace.Emperor Zhaode didn't like the Lin family, and pressed him every step of the way, and the Lin family retreated step by step, not only did not let Emperor Zhaode stop, but also gave the Lin family shame in every way.Lin Jing spends most of his daily life in the Palace of Mercy to raise his body, apart from reading, that's all he thinks about.

It's been a long time since I was dissatisfied.

Lin Yi's face seemed to be submerged in water, and his right hand landed hard on the table, making a muffled bang, and even the teacup at hand jumped, making a crisp crashing sound.

Lin Jing was quick-witted, seeing Lin Yi's anger, he didn't dare to say anything, and kept his head down in silence.

Lin Jing suddenly faltered, but Lin Yi couldn't suppress his anger. He got up suddenly, stepped in front of Lin Jing, and grabbed Lin Jing by the collar. Lin Jing groaned strangely, and Lin Yi covered him Then he carried the man out of the house, and turned around to get to a spacious courtyard. Lin Yi kicked open the courtyard door and entered the back room, only to let go of Lin Jing.Lin Jing nearly fell, looked up, and saw a dense pile of spirit cards.

With Lin Jingduo's brilliant head, he immediately understood that this was the ancestral hall.

A place like the ancestral hall is very cloudy.

Feeling cold, Lin Jing tightened his cloak and looked up at Lin Yi.Lin Yi had already sat on the top seat, and said in a deep voice, "Lin Jing, I am the head of the family now. So, put away your little thoughts for me. I am the one who talks to the Lin family. If you have anything to say, first Discuss with me before you speak out!" Seeing that Lin Jing still showed dissatisfaction on his face, Lin Yi said, "You are just in the Queen Mother's palace, and after hearing a few words, you dare to take such an idea! What about the situation! Do you know how much embarrassment you will bring to the family if you act rashly like this!"

Lin Jing said, "Is it not embarrassing for the family now? Big brother has no title or job, so he has glory?"

Lin Jingsheng has a clever mouth, he is extremely intelligent and quick-witted, and he is not at a disadvantage against Lin Yi who is slow-talking at such a young age.Lin Yi scolded angrily, "Short-sighted thing, you don't understand what I say, do you?"

"Understood, I understand." Lin Jing thought that he had good intentions for Lin Yi, but some people didn't know good people, but took the opportunity to take him to the ancestral hall and show him off, it really blinded his heart.

Lin Jing was also quite angry, and said, "If elder brother doesn't give instructions, I want to burn incense for parents." Speaking of parents who had never masked, Lin Jing's eyes were red, thinking, elder brother is really unreliable, if With parents alive, I don't know how to love him.For a well-behaved person like him, his parents must be reluctant to scold him like this.

Lin Jing ignored Lin Yi, he wanted to offer incense to his parents, but he was not as tall as the incense table, where did he come from?

Seeing his grievance, Lin Yi sighed in his heart, stood up, held incense, and handed it to Lin Jing.Lin Jing thought that he was under the roof, how could he not bow his head?However, if you bow your head too easily, you will be looked down upon.

Lin Jing ignored Lin Yi at first, and dragged a chair to the altar by himself. He climbed onto the chair and stood up. Fang took the incense in Lin Yi's hand, squeezed it with both hands, closed his eyes and muttered a few words silently, and finally Insert the incense into the incense burner by yourself.Slowly climbed down from the chair again, kowtowed three times on the futon before getting up.

Lin Jing suddenly offered incense to his parents. Thinking of his mother's advice when he passed away, Lin Yitian lost his temper. He took Lin Jing's hand and said, "The family is reunited today, let's go see my brothers and sisters first."

Lin Jing had a stinky face and ignored Lin Yi.

Seeing that Lin Jing still had a little temper, Lin Yi didn't blame him, but asked instead, "What did you say to your parents just now?"

"Nothing to say."

"Call me bullying you. I treat you badly. If a dog bites Lu Dongbin, I don't know your good heart."

"I didn't say that." Lin Jing's mouth was stiff, even if he scolded Lin Yi severely in his heart, he would not admit it.

Lin Yi glanced at him, "Don't be so reckless in the future, you know?"

Lin Jing pursed his lips, stepped over the high threshold, and said, "I ask my parents to keep us safe and sound."

Lin Yi's heart warmed, and he touched Lin Jing's face.Although he was angry at Lin Jing's self-assertion and boldness at such a young age, he also knew that apart from Lin Jing, no one in the family was so anxious about his title.
