[Red Mansion] Princess Ji

The title of the gold list is the time when the spring breeze is in full swing.

For the first time, the inn where Lin Wenjin lived overwhelmed the restaurants and inns in the downtown area, and the people who came to the door for three consecutive days were about to step on the threshold. The shopkeeper smiled and waved his hand, directly waiving Lin Wenjin's rent for one month.

What kind of rent is there to charge, and once this sign is hung in the future, do you still worry about the business dying?

"Brother Lin is going to check out now?" The shopkeeper looked at Lin Wenjin who was carrying a bag in his hand in surprise, "The official has already issued official documents so quickly, did you send an errand?"

Hearing this, Lin Wenjin nodded and handed over the rent to the shopkeeper.

"Thank you for coming to the shopkeeper to take care of you during this period of time. This kindness is not a respect." Lin Wenjin looked at the shopkeeper's flattered expression, and said again: "If there is a chance in the future, I will come to have a drink again. It is much quieter here than outside. Yes, I am, Xijing."

One sentence made the corner of the shopkeeper's mouth open again.

He sent Lin Wenjin out with a smile on his face. When he turned around, he saw the clerk still standing in the lobby in a daze. He raised his hand and slapped him on the shoulder, "You boy! What are you doing in a daze, go to work!"

The residence arranged by the officials is just a small courtyard with two entrances and two exits, but for Lin Wenjin, having a place to live in the capital is already a blessing from his ancestors, not to mention that he is now in the Hanlin Academy, and his future official career Bright, able to show ambition.

As soon as the sedan chair stopped outside the house, when the curtain was lifted, he saw a man standing there without a follower by his side, so he couldn't help laughing.

"You came earlier than me, so you can't wait to drink three hundred cups with me?"

"I've been busy for several days, and my feet don't touch the ground. If it weren't for the free time today, I don't think you, an upstart, might have time to come here." Ji Yuanlan stepped forward, took out the wine hidden behind him, "The best daughter Hong , how is it? Do you want to drink?"

"Tsk, if you don't drink this, wouldn't it be a shame for you, you must drink it."

Hearing this, Ji Yuanlan smiled loudly, put his hand on Lin Wenjin's shoulders and walked in, "Let's go, let's not talk about those red tapes. It's rare to have a confidant in life. I saw your article, but I didn't expect you to look gentle. With a passion, get along, get along!"

Lin Wenjin laughed and echoed, "It's just a joke, it's just that the teacher taught well."

"Hahaha, you are really humble. If I want to have a literary talent like you, my mother will be so happy to fast for a month. Unfortunately, my writing is not as good as my martial arts."

"You are self-effacing, I don't understand that."

The two looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

'Ah-choo-! '

Daiyu covered her mouth with a handkerchief, sneezed loudly, looked at the snow geese who heard the movement, blinked innocently, and quickly gathered the clothes she was wearing.

Seeing her like this, Xueyan sighed and stepped forward, changing a handkerchief for Daiyu, "Young lady really doesn't know how to take care of herself. It's clear that when it's cold, you don't wear this clothes well. If you're sick, why not?" It’s not that you have to worry about it.”

Although it was a complaint, but the worry in the words made Daiyu chuckle and said: "It's not so expensive, it's just a sneeze."

Staring at Daiyu, Xueyan rolled her eyes and said hesitantly: "Sister Zijuan went outside just now, and saw the second grandma went to the wife's room, and then went to the old lady's place at the same time after a while."

"Go to the old lady's?"

"kindness."

Anxiety crept up in her heart, Daiyu got up and walked out, when she got to the door, she saw Zijuan was about to come in, the two looked at each other, and she understood most of it in her heart.

He raised his hand to brush the hair on his sideburns, and stretched out his hand to give Zijuan a hand, "I haven't paid my respects to the old lady for several days, so I'll go here."

As soon as the words came out, both Zijuan and Xueyan were stunned.

This is probably the first time for their girls to be so active. When encountering troubles, they don't turn around and avoid them, but go straight to them.Zijuan was overjoyed, and asked Xueyan to help Daiyu out of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

Just now she listened carefully to the people below, knowing that after Wang Xifeng met Jia Lian, she didn't know what the two said, so Wang Xifeng hurried to the upper room, she was careful not to be with her family. The girl was concerned, so she went to the upper room to ask for advice on the pretext of going to the old lady's place.

It was a critical moment, so no accident should happen in Jia's mansion.

The second master Lian is well-informed. In the past few days, Chun Wei has released the announcement, and the nobles of the new department have entered the palace to have an audience. There are all kinds of banquets and banquets. I am afraid that he has heard some rumors.

After a little inquiring, the identity and history of the Lin family's elder brother became clear.

"Girl, don't panic, maybe—"

"Do you still remember who informed about the matter of the master of the Wang family? Besides, you don't know the relationship between the second sister-in-law and the wife? It is inevitable that the aunt and nephew have some conflicts. Although there are gaps, there are also differences in closeness." Daiyu whispered: "It's not that I have too many thoughts, but now, I must not interfere with this matter."

He already has the heart to leave Jia's mansion, so how can he be disturbed by others.

Going to Lin Wenjin's place was better than going directly to the Yongkang Palace. Going directly to the Yongkang Palace was the worst plan.

"Have you heard?"

"what?"

"Isn't it because the second master Lian accompanied his cousin girl home to attend the funeral a few years ago, and collected a lot of family wealth, all of which went into the warehouse of our house, and kept the account books with the second grandma."

Daiyu paused, holding Zijuan to stand at the corner of the corridor without moving forward, her fingers unconsciously tightened, the corners of her mouth were tense, and there was no sign of happiness or anger on her face.

"This is outrageous nonsense!"

"I heard it outside the room that day. The second master can tell. Brother Lin won the top three and settled in the capital. He is very guilty. He is afraid that he will ask about it when he visits."

"Biao girl has been in the mansion all these years, and she has spent all the wealth of the Lin family on her. Look at the appearance of the small family when Biao girl came, I'm afraid there is not much money left to collect."

"You're really right. Even if you ask, a living person like a cousin girl doesn't have to ask for money, so the old lady is kind-hearted and treats her like the second master Bao. Unfortunately, the cousin girl has an arrogant temper. You see With her usual appearance, it's no wonder Second Grandma Bao belongs to Xue's family."

Zijuan couldn't bear to listen, and when she was about to go out, Daiyu grabbed her wrist and hurriedly turned to go another way, feeling anxious and worried.

These words really pierced the heart of her girl, and her girl happened to take it to heart and make things difficult for herself.

"Girl, don't worry about what those snarky girls say."

"En?" Daiyu raised her head and glanced at Zijuan, "...There is nothing wrong with what I said, but, although my father was clean back then, he was an official, and he had a house—"

Raise her?No matter how much you raise ten, you can grow so big.

The Lin family is indeed no match for the grand family compound of the Jia Mansion, and now she doesn't want to live under the fence, so it's better to end this matter so that people don't always talk about it.

Taking a deep breath with drooping eyes, Daiyu managed to suppress the sourness in her heart.

"Let's go, go to the old lady's place. I still have to make this matter clear. It's better to hit the sun than to choose a day. Although the third brother is not yet in the future, if the old lady hears the wind, she should ask me. If you ask, I'm determined to go back to Lin's house, and I won't be able to stay here."

It just so happened that Jia Baoyu accompanied Xue Baochai back to Xue's house for a few days, so she saved the strength to face these two people.

Holding Daiyu's hand distressedly, Zijuan said softly: "Good girl, after leaving here, there will be a bright road in the future, don't let the tears fall."

"On the day of the second elder brother's wedding, the teardrops dried up long ago."

After Daiyu finished speaking, the corners of her lips curled up, "Who wants to cry again."

The master and servant looked at each other and smiled, then went to the upper room.

Mrs. Jia was rinsing her mouth with a celadon teacup, and when Yuanyang said that Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng were coming, she gave Yuanyang a wink, and Yuanyang asked the other maids to serve outside, and then led the two into the house.

"Why are you here now?"

"It just happened to be free, and I came to chat with the old lady together, old lady, don't think I'm annoying." Wang Xifeng stepped forward and sat down next to Mrs. Jia, "No, the second master just came back and said it was a happy event , I’ll hurry over to announce the good news to the old lady.”

The eyes of Mrs. Wang next to her changed, and she didn't say anything else.

Mrs. Jia asked with a smile, "What happy event? But if you say it with your mouth, a five-point happy event can make you say a very happy event."

"Hey! Look at what the old lady said, it's a compliment that I can talk!" Wang Xifeng couldn't help laughing, "The second master came just now, and said that there was another person from Gusu Lin's family. He is now famous in the top three and entered the Imperial Academy. As soon as I heard about the great news of Guangzong Yaozu, I rushed to announce the good news to the old lady."

Hearing this, Mrs. Jia's expression changed slightly, she stared at Wang Xifeng, and put down the teacup in her hand.

The people from the Lin family have entered Beijing?Also won the top three, this is really not a trivial matter.

Glancing at Mrs. Wang, she said without changing her face: "This is a happy event. If Miss Lin finds out, I'm afraid she will be happy for the family. After all, she is a girl of the Lin family."

"...Old lady, shall I go there later?"

"No hurry, after the settlement is settled, I will go there again."

"Then, I won't go there right now, but—the Lin family has settled down in Beijing, and sister Lin is still living in our house, so I can't help but hear that the brother of the Lin family is also undecided." Honey." Wang Xifeng said while watching the changes in the expressions of the other two.

Seeing the changes in the expressions on the faces of the two of them, she made up her mind and didn't speak anymore, waiting for the two to tell themselves that she only came to report a letter, and she didn't need to provoke the rest of the matter.

The reason why she came to report the letter was that one is prosperous and the other is damaged. She still wants to live well in Jia's mansion, so Jia's mansion can't die first.

"I don't know what the name of the Lin family is?"

"Lin Wenjin, that's what the second master said when he came here. He said that he was just like Sister Lin. He was born with a good-looking appearance. He was very gentle, and he was favored by officials. He directly entered the Imperial Academy and was given a mansion. Twenty one."

After Lin Ruhai passed away, the Jia family no longer had any connection with the Lin family in Gusu. Now that there are such extra characters, they don't know how to deal with them for a while.

Mrs. Jia took a sip of tea, "The children of the Lin family are sensible, since they have entered Beijing, they know that their sister is at the house, so they should come to the house in a few days, let the kitchen be more careful these few days, and not neglect the distant guests. "

"Listen to the old lady, I will keep an eye on it."

"Mother, that Lin girl—"

"Girl Lin, I have been by my side for many years, and I have deep feelings. If I can't be your daughter-in-law, she is also a granddaughter, so I can't stay in the house?" Mrs. Jia glanced at Mrs. Wang, knowing that she was making plans for her family, Short-sighted, can't grasp the severity.

After so many years, I have not made any progress.

Wang Xifeng heard the meaning of these words, so she didn't dare to say more, she lowered her head to avoid embarrassment on Mrs. Wang's face - although this situation is already embarrassing.

Mrs. Wang was reprimanded, she stopped talking, and nodded, "Madam Lin is weak, so it's better to keep her by her mother's side."

Just as she was talking, she saw the mandarin duck walking in and leaning into Mrs. Jia's ear.

"Old lady, Miss Lin is here."
