The Founding of the Red Chamber

Because of the three brothers-in-law who ran away from home, Lin Jing often went to Yue's house to comfort his mother-in-law. Even though Mrs. Xia felt that Lin Jing was not strong at first, she had to say at this time, "Ah Jing, this child has no character." I feel that the son-in-law is really caring, smart and sensible.

Not only does Lin Jing know how to bribe his mother-in-law, but he is also knowledgeable, far superior to his peers. Every time at his Yue's house, he happens to meet his father-in-law and ask him about books, Lin Jing can always say something about it. After a long time, even the father-in-law coaxed him into a good mood.If it weren't for the fact that the Lin family was a big family, Xia Shangshu would have wanted Lin Jing to teach him.

Lin Jing also showed his hard work, and said to his father-in-law, "My elder brother often advises me to study less. For some reason, when I read books, I feel clear-headed."

Xia Shangshu has no other hobbies, but likes scholars.Especially a child who likes to read, loves to read, and can read, especially if this child is his own son-in-law. If you say that Xia Shangshu is pleasing to Lin Jing's eyes, don't mention it.He often uses son-in-law Lin to spur Shiro Goro, who is still studying at home, Xia Ruochu exposes Lin Jing's old background, "Don't listen to Lin Xiaosi's nonsense, he brags all day long, the elder brother of the Lin family has set him a limit on how many books he should read every day, and if he doesn't finish reading, he will be beaten .”

Xia Wulang clicked his tongue, "Brother Lin is so strict!"

“可不是，林小四怕挨揍，可不得玩儿命念书么。听他吹牛，还标榜自己多爱念书。他下回再吹牛，你就问他，唉哟，你屁股消肿啦！包管他Don't dare to brag anymore." The two brothers Xia Ruochu said were happy.

It's not that Shiro Goro is narrow-minded, nor does it mean that he doesn't think others are better than himself, it's just that they will mention Lin Xiaosi when his father reprimands them.Originally, Shiro Goro was depressed enough, but Lin Xiaosi is still a stinking showman. When he came to his house, he asked their sister (sister) to make snacks, not to mention, after muttering in front of his mother, he went to his father again. Chirping, making it look like Lin Xiaosi is the only one in front of his parents.Although the two brothers thought they were not petty, but looking at Lin Xiaosi also meant looking at Xiao Ming next door.It was Xia Ruochu who directly exposed Lin Xiaosi's old background, and made the two brothers laugh so hard that their stomachs ached, and the depression in his heart disappeared.

When Lin Jing came to Xia's house again, Xia Wulang inquired again, and Xia Wulang said, "Brother Ah Jing, I heard that you are often beaten at home!"

"What's the matter! Big brother treats me like a baby." Lin Jing said again and again, "Someone must have made rumors about me! Goro, you can't believe these rumors." He refused to admit it.

Xia Wulang immediately acted like a parrot, "What my sister said, there may be a difference! Cut~ you know how to brag!" He also said this n times, you said that Lin Jing is annoying, Lin Jing said, "Woman! If so, just listen to it."

Xia Wulang, the parrot, immediately ran to Xia Ruochu and said, "Sister, brother Ah Jing said, just listen to the words of women and men."

Afterwards, Lin Jing confided his troubles to his eldest brother, saying, "Brother, in this world, there is no one who hates more than brother-in-law."

Lin Yi asked with a smile, "Why, did you quarrel with your brother-in-law?"

"I will quarrel with him? How old is Goro, I will let him go." Lin Jing couldn't admit that he had any conflicts with his brother-in-law. It seemed like he was a little brother-in-law, but he lost it at his mother-in-law's house. For face, Lin Jing was really depressed.If you don't find someone to talk to, Lin Jing will be depressed to death, it's rare for him to be so depressed, and he can pretend to be okay, saying, "Brother, look at how gentle and virtuous my sister-in-law is, and she doesn't talk much at all. Brother, tell me, if I ask Sister Xia to come over, will she learn a little bit of the virtues of sister-in-law?"

Lin Yi understood it now, thinking it was probably a child bickering, it was really rare for Lin Jing to beat around the bush for a long time.Lin Yi has always been strict with himself and his brother, and asked, "How did Miss Xia offend you?"

Lin Jing was stubborn, and said, "No, I am a man, why would I care about a girl like her."

Lin Yi knew that Lin Jing was born with a disingenuous temper. He stared at Lin Jing with deep and deep eyes and said nothing. Lin Jing suddenly felt that the pressure was doubled, and it was not good to make a detour, so he said the truth awkwardly, "Sister Xia It's very annoying that I don't save face in front of Shiro Goro."

"Then you should do something to make people save face for you." Lin Jing was born with the ability to speak eloquently, but Lin Yi disliked him the most. I will never lose face for no reason, and you should reflect on yourself before telling others."

Lin Jing widened his phoenix eyes, and said in disbelief, "Look at what the elder brother said, no one is partial to his family, and the elder brother is just like a blue sky. I'll just say it casually, so I can really feel at ease."

Lin Jing's face has always been changed as he said, and Lin Yi couldn't do anything at that speed.Lin Yi stared at him again, "Be honest, you can study well, and you can also do errands in the future, don't think about these inner affairs all day long, it's useless."

Lin Jing spoke quickly, "It's fine for our family to have a big brother who is promising. I want to shine brightly. I'm not afraid of stealing the limelight from you, big brother."

"Then I thank you very much." Lin Yi casually flipped through the book of rites, and instead of talking nonsense with Lin Jing, he simply checked his younger brother's homework.

Lin Jingdong looked a bit awkward, but he was quite a strong man, and he was not sloppy in his homework. Lin Yi checked it out and was satisfied.That is to say, because Lin Jing was putting his heart into business, Lin Yifang let him go.However, Lin Yi became angry when he thought about Lin Jing's misrepresentation about his brother-in-law, and it was worth talking about something serious.Directly mark down the homework for the next ten days to Lin Jing. Lin Jing is such a smart person, it is not right at first glance, "Why is the homework still too long!" I didn't have to read so much before.

Lin Yi said with a stern face, "Every year, you are still old and eat a lot, but your ambition is not long."

You said that you made Lin Jing angry, and Lin Jing was furious, "It's because big brother has bad eyesight. If you have good eyesight, you would have seen my ambition grow and grow taller!"

Even with a stern face, Lin Yi laughed at these words, Lin Yi smiled, "Oh, it's as tall as a room, so it's so tall, I thought it was bean sprouts just like you."

Lin Jing was so angry that he didn't speak to Lin Yi for three days.

Lin Yi didn't bother to talk to Lin Jing, because he felt that he was underestimated by his elder brother, so Lin Jing paid more attention to his studies, taking care of his sister-in-law who was about to give birth, and his eldest nephew Lin Ze.

Lin Jing will teach Lin Ze to read poems and learn to speak when he has time. His elder brother forced him to study.

Yue's body became more and more cumbersome. Seeing that Lin Jing knew Lin Ze was with him, and he came to take care of him every day. Mrs. Yue who came to prepare for the delivery of her daughter said, "Ah Jing is really a considerate child."

"That's right. My uncle is considerate in everything. I said that it would be better for Aze to be as sensible as my uncle in the future." The Yue family has always liked children. She is the eldest sister-in-law, and Lin Jing is a weak younger brother. He is considerate of women, so his relationship with the Yue clan is better than that with his elder brother.

After hearing her daughter's words, Mrs. Yue naturally favored her grandson, and said, "Ah Ze is smart at first glance."

Yue Shi laughed, "I just hope he will obey my mother's words."

"It will definitely be answered. There are no stupid people in our family, and neither is the son-in-law's family. How could A Ze be stupid." Mrs. Yue was full of confidence, and she hoped that her daughter would give birth to a son.In this way, the daughter has two sons, and her life is stable.

The Yue family's second child was born smoothly, as soon as she started, Lin Jing sent someone to call the eldest brother back, and when Lin Yi rushed back from the yamen to the mansion, the Yue family gave birth to the second son.

Lin Jing waited in his yard until the Yue family was born. His mother passed away during childbirth, and Lin Jing was particularly afraid of women giving birth.Hearing the maid came in to report that mother and child were safe, Lin Jingfang patted his small chest, relieved, and ran over to see his second nephew.

Most of the newborn children are not good-looking, what about the second nephew's appearance... Lin Jing curled his lips when he saw it, and said, "Uglier than A Ze back then."

Mrs. Yue smiled, "It will look better in a few days."

"Not as good-looking as Aze." Lin Jing picked Lin Ze up and showed Lin Ze his younger brother. Lin Ze followed Lin Jing every day, and his aesthetic vision also moved closer to that of Uncle Lin. , "Well, not as good-looking as Aze."

Mrs. Yue's face blossomed into a smile, "Yes, our Aze is the prettiest."

Lin Yi waved his hand, "Take Aze out first, and let your sister-in-law have a rest."

Lin Jing said that he understood very well, "Brother, you accompany sister-in-law." He took Lin Ze's hand and went out.

Lin Jing went to Shu Jingyun's place, Shu Jingyun smiled, "You are an uncle again."

"Yes." Lin Jing said, "It's not as good-looking as A Ze."

Lin Ze was just at the age of learning to speak, like a parrot, and said, "Not as good-looking as A Ze!"

Lin Jing laughed and asked Shu Jingyun, "Master, do you know how to give birth to a girl? I prefer a little niece." What's the matter with a sister-in-law always giving birth to a little nephew!

Shu Jingyun, who has been known for 3000 years and [-] years since her account, was also stopped by Lin Jing. Shu Jingyun said, "I have to ask your elder brother about this matter."

"I don't think big brother knows it. Master, if you have any ideas, tell me, and I'll tell big brother."

Shu Jingyun said, "You don't need to tell me, I'll just tell your elder brother."

Lin Jing urged again and again, "Master, do you remember that?"

Lin Ze imitated the tongue, "You have to remember~"

Shu Jingyun suppressed a smile, "Remember."

The sister-in-law gave birth to a nephew again, Lin Jing planned to go to announce the good news to the queen mother and aunt the next day, and he took Lin Ze with him.In Lin Jing's words, "Ah Ze is so old, I haven't seen my aunt yet. He is sensible now, I will take him to show my aunt."

Lin Yi said to Lin Ze, "Listen to your uncle."

Because Lin Yi wanted to be a strict father, not to mention he was born with a cold face, Lin Ze was a little afraid of him, in front of his father, Lin Ze didn't learn his tongue anymore, nodded his head, "Yes."

Lin Jing took care of everything, "Don't worry, big brother, Aze is also sensible with me."

When the Yue family heard that his uncle was going to bring his son into the palace, he hurriedly ordered the maid to prepare clothes for his son, and told his son a lot of words. Lin Ze understood what he didn't understand, and nodded very well, "I will follow my uncle."

"Yes, it's right to follow my uncle." After patting his son's head, Yue Shi let his son go to play.

On the second day, Lin Jing got up early, and seeing Lin Ze dressed like a red envelope, couldn't help being amused, and said, "Happy."

After breakfast, both Lin Jing and Lin Ze shared a car with Lin Yi, Lin Yi went to court, and Lin Jing and Lin Ze went to greet Queen Mother Lin.

For Empress Dowager Lin, the imperial concubine does not come here until the first and fifteenth day of the new year. Today is neither the first nor the fifteenth day of the new year. Empress Dowager Lin is very quiet here.Seeing his nephews and nephews were very happy, Lin Jing brought Lin Ze to salute, Queen Mother Lin smiled, "Get up. I asked someone to prepare delicious food. Aze came over and showed my aunt."

Lin Ze looked at Lin Jing, Lin Jing led him by the hand, the Empress Dowager Lin held him in her arms, Lin Ze softly called out, "Grandmother."

Queen Mother Lin replied, "Ah Ze is really sensible." Touching Lin Ze's chubby face, teasing him to talk.

Lin Jing told his aunt about the news that his sister-in-law gave birth to a nephew. Empress Dowager Lin laughed, "How much does the child weigh? Who does it look like?"

"Five catties and three ounces, eyes like a big brother, nose bridge like a sister-in-law, not as good-looking as Ze."

Lin Ze nodded solemnly, and agreed with his fourth uncle, "It's not as good-looking as A Ze." Empress Dowager Lin was amused.

The grandparents and grandchildren were talking happily when a servant came in and whispered a few words next to Queen Mother Lin. Queen Mother Lin frowned slightly, but it only relaxed in an instant, "Got it." The servant retreated.

Lin Jing looked at his aunt curiously, and Empress Dowager Lin said, "It's not very peaceful in the north."

Lin Jing said, "Aunt, just rest assured, His Majesty will definitely make arrangements."

Empress Dowager Lin laughed, "That's true too."

Lin Jing and Lin Ze left in the afternoon, and Empress Dowager Lin named her second nephew Lin Qing.

Lin Jing thought about it, and the appointment was meant for Haiyan and Heqing. It seems that Auntie is still concerned about court affairs.

Lin Jing went home and didn't forget to tell Lin Yi that the north is not peaceful. Lin Yi was in the Ministry of War and already knew about it. He said, "This has nothing to do with you. It's just a matter of studying."

After discussing with Shu Jingyun, Lin Yi and Shu Jingyun arranged for Lin Sa Linduan to be an outsider.
