Queen of the Lin family in the Red Chamber

Although Lin Ruhai's salary was over spent this year, but the Lin family's heritage is still there, and half of the money spent was used to buy new villages, so Jia Min settled the accounts and passed.

Unlike the Lin family who were happily preparing for the new year, the Jia family is now gloomy, especially Mrs. Wang, her mood in the past few months has been like a roller coaster, not once a month, but three times a day.

In the morning, I saw the slim Yuan Chun come to greet me, thinking that next year she will enter the palace draft and have a bright future, this is my first joy.

Daughter asks Ann to be son.Jia Zhu fell ill again, and this time it was very violent. Although she is better now and can get out of bed, her original clothes are too big and hang lightly on her body, as if she is going to die at any moment.Madam Wang wiped her tears behind her back and said, "Go back and have a good rest, don't worry about other things."

Jia Zhu didn't agree, he was going to take the exam next year, how could he relax at this time. "Madam, don't worry, my son will be named on the gold list and win honor for the family."

Both are immersed in their own world, and the dialogue is a bit out of tune.

Mrs. Wang didn't dare to say too much, for fear that her son would get windy after being out for a long time, and said, "Go back quickly." So Jia Zhu was helped by two maidservants and walked out slowly.A big man in his late twenties can be dragged by two servant girls. One can imagine how thin his body is.

At noon, the daughter-in-law Li Wan came to greet her with her grandson Jia Lan in her arms. Mrs. Wang was overjoyed again. Jia Lan was plump and fat, with very nimble little hands, and her eyes were sparkling, very energetic.

In addition to this emotional change of joy, sorrow, and joy, the choice of Jia Lian's wife also gave her an extra headache.Mrs. Wang admits that she has selfish motives in choosing Wang Xifeng. This is her niece, who has the same surname as her, and the entire Jia family will be in the future... But Wang Xifeng's own conditions are still good, and she is more than enough to match Jia Lian.

Although Wang Xifeng's biological father is not very capable and has no official position, but he is in charge of the Wang family's property in Jinling. The Wang family also has a prince Teng who has become the military governor of the Beijing camp. He is no worse than Lin Ruhai. go there.

What's more, Jia Lian didn't understand poetry and books, and he didn't have literary talent. He was only literate, and he just had a title, and the title hadn't belonged to him yet.

Mrs. Wang also mentioned it to Jia Mu twice in a different way. Jia Mu didn't take it seriously, and said with a smile: "This is the eldest daughter-in-law of my Rongfu. What you said makes sense. We need to find someone Familiar with poetry and books. Since Min'er said to help, then wait, Lian'er is old enough to wait."

After mentioning it twice, Mrs. Wang didn't say any more, as if the daughter of the Wang family couldn't get married and was rushing to get together.

It's just that it's not easy to talk about the Wang family. Wang Ziteng doesn't want his niece to be selected. With Wang Xifeng's status, let alone the prince and concubine, even if it is not full, it will not fall into her hands.And considering that Wang Ziteng is now considered a real power faction, in charge of the access control and security of the nine gates in the capital, his niece is also considered a sought-after item.

But the key problem is that there are too many people in the prince's house, if he is not careful not to give it to other princes, the prince will attack him.

The relationship between in-laws is a natural alliance, no matter how much he explains it, it's useless.So Wang Ziteng has already asked the emperor to place a sign, but the husband of his niece has not been selected yet.

The first thing he considered was Jia's family. The two ancestral homes are in Jinling. They are close neighbors. There is also a younger sister who married into the second room. An aunt will always protect her niece, so Wang Ziteng wrote a letter to test it out. , Mrs. Wang said to ask.

However, this has been dragging on for a long time. Wang Ziteng is a military general. Although he has suppressed his impulse to such a large official position, in the final analysis, compared with civil servants and those old ladies in the backyard, He was still impatient.

We haven't talked about it for half a year, so let's change to another one.

So Mrs. Wang was still in a dilemma, when she used the dragging formula, Wang Xifeng's family settled down.

Wanyu was the first to find out about this. Although she didn't say it clearly, there is one big difference between girls who are engaged and those who are currently unemployed like them: they don't even leave the door of their own house.This is an unspoken rule, once you get married, you can't run around like before.

I haven't seen Wang Xifeng at the Beijing Central Party several times in a row—well, she has to call Wang Xifeng sister—and thinking about her age, and the draft at the beginning of next year, Wanyu told Jia Min when she came back, "Second aunt's My niece seems to be engaged."

Jia Min didn't even raise her eyes, "She moves so fast, she's in a hurry before the draft, and I don't know why."

In the final analysis, Wang Ziteng was still afraid that someone in the middle would try to trick his niece, so he simply acted first.Although it is not as decent as the last round of the draft, but what kind of decent do you want?

This is about Jia Lian's marriage. Lin Ruhai has three acquaintances. They are currently in the cabinet. In the cabinet, can they find Jia Lian an in-law?Lin Ruhai didn't have that ability, if it was his own son, it would be fine to put down his old face and look for it, but with Jia Lian's appearance, the cabinet didn't like it, let alone a legitimate son, even a prince.

The second is Yushitai. Lin Ruhai has worked in Yushitai for several years. That place is his fortune. He is the best one out of Yushitai.But I can't introduce it. He has heard a lot about the Jia family's affairs after entering the capital. It is true that it has not yet reached the point of being impeached by Yu Shi, but the ranking on the blacklist is getting earlier. .Besides, the Jia family wanted a daughter-in-law who was born in Yushitai, because they planned to let her come in to find evidence...so they let it go.

The third is the earlier Hanlin Academy. The atmosphere here is slightly better than the first two places. Some of them are Jinshi of new subjects, and they are more careful in dealing with people. Those who edit books are basically far away from power struggles, and it is this group of people that Lin Ruhai takes a fancy to.

Although Jia Lian's knowledge is not very good, but he has read the books that should be read, and he has donated a five-rank acquaintance, plus the future title of Rongfu, it is almost the same.

Lin Ruhai tentatively contacted a few of them first, and passed the news to the Rong Mansion through Jia Min after changing hands. After that, Jia She sent someone to further communicate.Although it was not as fast as Wang Xifeng's progress, it was finally on the right track.

Jia Min felt that Wanyu was still a little girl, and sometimes these things were hidden from her, but just a few words were enough for Wanyu to deduce the truth.

The candidate for Lian's Second Grandma has finally been completely changed this time.

Lian Er is not a particularly good person, with more shortcomings than advantages, this Wanyu also knows, but Lian Er Ge also gave them a lot of gadgets, although they will not be bought by these things, but compared to the original Lian's second grandma had blood on her hands.On this point, Lian Er's heart is much softer than this second mistress.

In this way, she disturbed two more people who probably had nothing to do with the earth-shaking situation, and Wanyu wrote it down in the small notebook in her heart.

Looking back at Daiyu who was practicing calligraphy on the desk, Wanyu couldn't hold back and poked the human pen.

The writing brush was already full of ink, but this stroke was good, and the whole thing fell down. This big character is useless.

Daiyu curled her mouth and stared at Wanyu.Although she didn't say a word, Wanyu felt that she could see the meaning in her eyes: Is there any sister like you, childish, childish.

"Aren't you tired of practicing calligraphy all day?" Wanyu said, saying that my sister is not as cute as she was when she was a child, and she grinned and cried when she was a child.It shouldn't matter to cry with her, Wanyu was taken aback for the first time, but later she didn't feel any sign of her skill increasing, so she continued.

Daiyu turned her head and whispered: "I knew it." After she finished speaking, she turned her head around and said seriously: "Sister, my wife said that your poems are not good, why don't you memorize the rhyme?"

Can we stop like this, I have given up treatment for writing poems and so on.Wanyu felt that Daiyu's eyes also revealed a meaning of "bad boys pull good boys into the water".After thinking for a while, Wanyu stepped forward and pulled Daiyu and said, "I'll take you to see my younger brother, I've been staying in the house all day, I'm bored."

It is a good thing to move to the capital and get a house bestowed by the emperor.But the land in the capital is expensive, and the houses are not as big as those in the south of the Yangtze River, especially the gardens.There are also trees, flowers and plants that are all bald in winter, which makes Wanyu a little unaccustomed to it. She always thinks that it will be great if she can settle in the south of the Yangtze River in the future.

Chinese New Year is coming soon, on the morning of the second day of junior high school, Lin Ruhai followed Jia Min and the three children of the Lin family to Jia's mansion to pay New Year's greetings.

It is quite crowded for five people to ride in a carriage, but several generations of the Lin family have always looked forward to the word "squeeze", and Lin Ruhai is no exception, so five people still ride in a carriage.

Wanyu was in a row with Lin Ruhai, facing Jia Min, Daiyu and Lin Ping.

Daiyu is still small, and Lin Ping is not tall, but he is a bit fat.If this trend continues, Jia Baoyu probably does not want to receive such tears when he is old enough to repay them.

Wanyu's mind came up with shallots and northeast scallions, and she couldn't help laughing out loud.

Jia Min glared at her, and then looked at the old man sitting next to her. In the early years, she gave birth to Daiyu and Lin Ping, and Wanyu was always taken by the old man when he spared no time. Now it's good, it's so old, I can't miss it Toothless smile.

When they arrived at Jia's mansion, Lin Ruhai was ushered to Rongxi Hall, accompanied by Jia She, Jia Zheng and Jia Lian, while Jia Min took his children to Jia's mother's flower hall.

Jia Lian was a little embarrassed to see Lin Ruhai, the two families exchanged notes, and he was about to start a family soon. "Thank you uncle!" Jia Lian bowed to the end.

Lin Ruhai smiled and said: "When you become a family, put away those old thoughts and live a good life."

"Uncle said so." Jia Lian laughed.

"Why don't you see Zhu'er?" Lin Ruhai took a sip of tea and said, "I think he will end this year, and I want to talk to him again."

The faces of the three men in Jia's family changed. Jia Zheng sighed, "I'm sick again. I didn't even go to worship the ancestors during the Chinese New Year."

That is the face of the disease and can't walk, "Zhu'er is still young, I think she can take care of it." Lin Ruhai paused and said: "There is an imperial doctor named Zhang in the Imperial Hospital, who is a little bit like me. My friendship, I don’t know who sees Zhu’er’s illness, if... you can invite him to come over and take a look.”

"It's Imperial Physician Wang." Jia She said, "If one more person can come over to take a look, maybe I can be more sure."

Jia Zheng also nodded. It was his son who was sick. If possible, he would like to invite all the imperial doctors in the imperial hospital home.

The atmosphere was a bit dull.

Mother Jia is here.

Jia Min still sat first next to Jia Mu, and together with her three children, they took up the couch that Jia Mu usually used for sitting and sleeping.

To tell the truth, Madam Wang was a little jealous. Apart from Mother Jia, only one or two maidservants who knocked her legs had kneeled on this couch, not even her Yuanchun and Baoyu.

Wanyu saw that Mrs. Wang looked at their family and her eyes flickered again, and she probably started to fight again.But before going out in the morning, my mother confessed that their eldest cousin is not in good health, so let's bear it if you can.

In other words, her mother was kind when she was there, Wanyu turned her head, and Jia Min and Jia's mother leaned their heads together, not knowing what to say in a low voice. Mother brought them here, but Mother Jia ignored others.

Daiyu and Yingchun got together, where is Lin Ping?Only Baoyu can play with him.

Wanyu sighed, she was still sitting here peacefully.Unexpectedly, as soon as he lowered his head and took a sip of water, there was an extra person beside him.

"Sister Wanyu." It was Yuan Chun who spoke, and the training before entering the palace was very useful. The aura had already come out, she walked without moving at all, and the smile on her face was very comfortable.

Yuan Chun was accompanied by her big maid holding the piano, who was going to enter the palace with her in the future, she looked older than Yuan Chun, and her head was lowered, with no expression on her face.

"Sister Yuanchun." Wanyu smiled, stood up and followed Yuanchun to the side.

Yuan Chun was a little shy, and asked in a low voice: "You have been to the palace so many times, have you ever...or..."

The question was so cryptic, but the spirit Wanyu understood, she just wanted to know all the available news in the palace. "The empress is very kind, and her words are very gentle. I have been there a few times, and I have never seen her palace maids beating or scolding. She must be generous to others."

Yuan Chun blushed a little and nodded.

Wanyu thought about it again, "I've never been to other empress palaces, as for the prince..." Wanyu raised her head and glanced at her eldest cousin, "I recognized all of them during the sacrifice, and they are all pretty good, my sister wants to know one?"

Yuan Chun's face flushed, and he ran away with two beeps.

Mrs. Wang, who had been looking at them all the time, gave Wanyu a glare. Jia Min was also startled, waved her to come over, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

Looking at the sky, it seems that she has molested her sister. "My sister asked me about the affairs in the palace, and I said I recognized all the princes. I asked her which one she wanted to know, and then she ran away." The voice was very innocent.

Jia Mu laughed, "She is shy."
