Since April, there has been a lot of rain in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are signs of a good harvest, but passers-by have suffered, just like the owner who hires a boat.

The owner of this family is surnamed Lin, but he has some origins. His ancestors were born as marquises, he was a prince for three generations, and he made up another generation. In this generation, Lin Ruhai, the owner of the family, has nothing left here. He himself was born in Tanhua. The doctor of Lantai Temple was hand-picked last year to inspect the salt censor in Huaihe River and Huaihe River to supervise the salt class.

He is a high-ranking official, but he has several shortcomings. He lost his son three years ago, and his wife a year ago. Recently, he feels that his health is not good. Yu, Nian was uneducated, afraid that her marriage would not go well, just when his wife's natal family sent someone to ask, so he became cruel and entrusted Jia Yucun, a teacher at home, to go north by boat and send his beloved daughter to the capital.

The Lin family is a clan of hairpin tassels, with a scholarly family, and naturally they also pay attention to the right family. Lin Ruhai's wife is of very high birth, and her ancestor is Jia Yuan, the Duke of Rongguo. Jia Yuan once followed the founding emperor to fight in the army. For his achievements, he was granted the title of Ningguo Gong, and the Rongning and Ningfus were connected with each other, ranking first among the "Four Great Families of Jinling", and in terms of merit, they were only below the "Six Founding Kings".

Although the two prefectures of Rongning and Ningxia are somewhat decadent now, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse. Lin Ruhai's family only has a few clans. Once he dies, according to the court law, apart from leaving a small amount of dowry for his beloved daughter, the inheritance should belong to the clansmen. Inheritance, apart from letting the beloved daughter go to the grandmother's house, there is no other way to go.

And he still has the same thought, the head of the Lin family has no support, and when he dies, his beloved daughter is alone, so he can't expect his cousin to find any good marriage for her. The mother-in-law's letter is full of concerns, and specifically mentions the second uncle's son Baoyu is smart and smart, although she doesn't have any intention of getting married, it relieves him a little: the old lady is so careful, even if she can't get married, she will definitely treat Daiyu well.

Naturally, he couldn't tell Daiyu, who was only seven years old, what he was thinking about. He only told Daiyu to be cautious in her words and deeds when she arrived in the capital, so as to be filial to her grandmother.

I was supposed to leave in February, but it happened that there was a fake Wang Zhi case. A person pretended to be the eunuch Wang Zhi of Xichang and pretended to be patrolling in the south, bluffing and deceiving, and accepting bribes. Because he couldn't tell many details, the officials in Fujian Not sure, so he invited Lin Ruhai to come over to identify him. Lin Ruhai had been an official in Beijing for several years, so he naturally recognized Wang Zhi. When he came back from Fujian, it was raining heavily, so he had to postpone his departure until the middle of August. .

The orphaned daughter is more sensitive than others. She left her father suddenly, thinking that she will be sent to her grandmother's house in the future. She doesn't know what it will be like. Daiyu was weeping for days on the boat, depressed, and suddenly saw snow geese rushing over, her face There was still a bit of excitement on his face, and he made gestures, and was so anxious that he couldn't speak for a while.

Daiyu laughed, and handed the teacup in her hand to Xueyan, Xueyan took it and took a big sip, then she breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Girl, Mother Wang just asked someone to fish up a little doll with the same eyebrows and eyes as It looks like the person in the painting, the jade girl next to the Guanyin Empress is almost funny, it’s so beautiful, I can see it for real!"

Daiyu was made curious by what she said, and couldn't help laughing: "This is a canal, so it's possible that we can catch the Luoshui Immortal?"

Just as Xueyan was about to argue, she remembered what Wang Momo had said, and said quickly, "Young lady, come and see with me. She doesn't know how to speak official language, and she is gesturing to write. Wang Momo said please come and recognize her."

Nanny Wang is Daiyu's nanny, after her mother left, Daiyu became closer to her, she didn't feel offended when she heard this, she put down the book at hand, and put down her two feet from the couch, Xueyan hurriedly Shoes for her.

When Daiyu came, Li Ning was drinking porridge. The porridge was left over at noon. Grandma Wang went to heat it up and filled a small half bowl. After talking a few words with the duck, I had to bring the porridge over to drink.

Little did they know that Wang Momo was even more sure that she had an extraordinary background.

In today's situation, the poor are getting poorer and the rich are getting richer, especially there are many hard laborers on both sides of the canal. If they are from ordinary families, they will never drink so slowly after seeing this treasure porridge mixed with minced chicken and fragrant meat.

There was no change in expression even seeing the silver spoon.

Li Ning put down the bowl, saw a small Daiyu standing outside the door, and smiled at her.

Xueyan said in a low voice, "It looks better when you smile."

Daiyu nodded in agreement.

Xueyan not only brought a lady who could read, but also some paper and pens and inks. Daiyu was still young and could not use too long pens, so her pens were all specially made, small and short, just right. Putting Li Ning's little hand together, two girls with picturesque eyebrows, you write a sentence and I write a sentence. After a while, Daiyu patted Li Ning's hand to reassure her, and then said to Wang Momo: "Her surname is Li, and the word One Ning, she got separated from her family, she doesn't remember where her home is, she only knows her brother's name."

A five or six-year-old doll could hardly remember what to ask for. Mother Wang sighed and said, "I don't understand the official language, so it can be seen that she came from another place. You can tell that she is from a wealthy family just by looking at her appearance and demeanor. Seeing her clothes." The tattered clothes must have been taken here by kidnappers, and I only know a name, so I don’t think I can get them back.”

Daiyu also sighed softly.

Li Ning put the paper full of words aside, and wrote two more words on the new paper. When Daiyu looked at it, she saw two words written on the paper: Li Che.

Daiyu patted Li Ning's hand again, as a comfort.

Wang Momo said: "This is also fate, the girl is lonely by herself, it is better to keep this child, it is really not worth raising her to be a maid, and it is also a living."

Li Ning couldn't understand what they were talking about. She raised her eyes and looked at Daiyu. Daiyu was a little sad at first, but when she saw her bright and beautiful eyes, she was even more sad. She shook her head and said, "I'll write to Daddy and let him Help find it."

Nanny Wang knew that her daughter was kind-hearted, and she couldn't see a girl from a good family as a slave, so she could only sigh.

The mountains and rivers are not accessible, and many people will live in one place all their lives. If they lose their children, they will never find them. No matter how good their wealth is, they will lose everything if they get lost. Such a beautiful child can do without being a slave What?The better ones will be picked up to be child brides-in-law, and the worse ones will be buried in the wind and dust, and they will be punished for the rest of their lives.

Being a servant for others, at least she has something to eat, and the work is not tiring. She is also very pretty, and when she is old enough to marry a girl, being a wealthy aunt is better than most of the girls in the world.

Daiyu hadn't expected that in the future, seeing Li Ning's pretty appearance and being easy to get along with, she would relieve a lot of her boredom. In a few days, she would teach her to speak again, and after a few days, she would take Li Ning from Mother Wang. The residence moved to his own, and the two little girls got together every day, as if they were alone.

Li Ning is not a child at heart, but she is only five or six years old now, and she does not understand the language. Except for Daiyu who can talk to her with a pen and paper, there is no one who can communicate with her. Xueyan and Wang Momo can at most watch her talk , I never really cared about what she said, so I had no choice but to give up.

Although Daiyu is young, she has already experienced a lot. She is not like an ordinary child. Even Xueyan, who is a few years older than her, can't communicate with her. Chacha has a friend like Li Ning, and she can't wait to eat and sleep together.

Half a month later, when the boat arrived at the pier in the capital, the Rong Mansion sent a sedan chair to pick it up long after hearing the news. Daiyu, who was already very lively, suddenly felt a little heavy. Li Ning, who was sitting in a big car, lowered her head and closed the car curtain.

After Li Ning became smaller, even her martial arts disappeared. She had tried to induce thunder, but the technique of attracting thunder could not be eaten as food. After arriving in the capital with Daiyu, she was much happier than Daiyu, after all. If Li Che also came here, there was a high probability that he would show up in the capital, and even if he wasn't there, she would still have a way to attract his attention.

The scenery of the capital city is different from that of the south. Nanny Wang and Xueyan have lived in Yangzhou all their lives and have never traveled far. They are a bit novel at the moment, but the nuns sent by the Rong Mansion look familiar. Li Ning I have learned a lot from Daiyu in the past half month, so I blinked my eyes and asked innocently like a child: "Nurse Xu, is this the place where the emperor lives?"

Mother Xu stretched out her hand and pinched Li Ning's cheek. Instead of treating Daiyu in a well-mannered manner, she said lovingly, "This is the capital, of course it is where the emperor lives. Look, the Forbidden City is in that direction."

Li Ning looked in that direction.

Since the last life on Bat Island, she found that she has been able to lead lightning from a long distance, up to hundreds of miles away.

There is only one place in this world where thunder can reach the ears of everyone in the world after a few days of thunder.

The two mansions of Rongning and Ning are not far away, and a few princely mansions to the north are the Forbidden City. Li Ning asked a few more questions and stopped talking.

Not long after entering the Rongguo Duke's Mansion, Daiyu went to visit her grandmother, and Wang Momo took Xueyan and Li Ning to stand at the outer gate for a while, and someone from Rongfu came to take them to the house to rest.

The Rong Mansion is huge, and the servants' rooms are very tidy, Wang Momo and Xueyan were a little restrained for a while, Li Ning looked around, but was held down by Wang Momo and sat down.

Wang Momo had told Xueyan many times before, but this was the first time she told Li Ning. She saw that the people from the Rong Mansion outside had already left, so she lowered her voice and said, "I'm going to visit Mrs. Jia later, remember to keep a low voice. Answer with your head down, and don't play around with the girl, I know you are from a wealthy family, so I still want you to be wronged for a while."

Li Ning nodded.

Mother Wang breathed a sigh of relief, and said again: "Sure enough, it's the Duke's mansion. It's so rich that I'm afraid to speak, but it's hard for you to look around."

Xueyan also whispered, "I was scared to death."

Li Ning touched her nose, her eyes fell on the pavilions not far away, she just felt that this Rongguo mansion...was old.
