"Master is back, Zhuran who is beside my wife has sent word that my wife is in a hurry to see you." At the gate, Lin Qing, the housekeeper, is waiting for Lin Ruhai himself.What I heard today really made the big steward's heart beat. It is widely rumored in Yangzhou that the eldest sister is the reincarnation of the holy lotus under the Buddha's throne, and she has a deep connection with Buddha.The master and wife planned to hold a hundred-day banquet for the eldest sister, but they were busy preparing for it, so they ignored the news from the outside, it was a dereliction of duty.This rumor is becoming more and more evil. If it continues like this, the elder sister may only enter the Buddhist sect, and she will be in line with the saying of "the Buddha's relationship is deep".

"Urgent matter?" Lin Ruhai paused for a moment, and she turned a corner when she was planning to go to Songtao Garden, and walked towards the main courtyard. "Do you know what's going on?"

"Rumor about Eldest Sister." Lin Qing followed Lin Ruhai, detailing the rumors I heard today, "Originally, it was because the time of Eldest Sister's birth coincided with the blooming of a white lotus in Puji Temple. The abbot said something that the eldest sister may have a predestined relationship with the Buddha. Later, the pilgrims who went to the temple to offer incense heard the words and passed them on.”

"I heard about this a few days ago, so don't panic." Lin Ruhai heard that it was because of this, and slowly slowed down his eager steps. "The last time I reported it to the emperor, I already told the emperor about it. Let's treat it as a joke."

"It's just that there is one more rumor today. It is said that the eldest sister is the reincarnation of the golden lotus seated on the Buddha's seat. of."

Lin Qing said the last sentence in a low voice.

Jinling? !

Lin Ruhai stopped, her gentle smile disappeared, and her hands were clenched under her sleeves.

"Can I find out who in Jinling passed it on?"

"The Royal Merchant Xue's family, the eldest lady of the long house." Lin Qing felt suspicious since hearing the rumor.These words clearly mean that the eldest sister is blessed, but when you think about it deeply, this is forcing the eldest sister to lose her hair and become an aunt.The royal family would not allow such a blessed elder sister to marry into an ordinary family, not even clan members.Now that the [-]th year has passed, it is unrealistic to bring the eldest sister into the imperial court.

The Xue family?Jia Wang Shixue, the four major families? !laugh……

Lin Ruhai snorted disdainfully.People don't offend me, I don't offend others.If anyone offends me, I will punish him.What's more, the present is already quite dissatisfied with the four self-proclaimed families.But, is there really no shadow of someone else behind this rumor?Is it really just a self-righteous and unintentional remark of a little girl?

"Go and check this Xue's family." Lin Ruhai ordered lightly.

At this time, Lin Ruhai had already reached the gate of the inner courtyard, so Lin Qing could only follow here.

"Especially check, is there any relationship between Xue's family and the Zhen family in Jinling?"

"Yes." Lin Qing replied, this matter must be done quickly.The eldest sister is what the master and wife have been looking forward to for five years. She looks cute and loves to laugh. She is very beloved by others.Every day when my mother-in-law came home from her errands, she had to talk to herself a few times. Lin Qing listened to it a lot, so she cared about her eldest sister.

*******************

"Master." Seeing Lin Ruhai, Nanny Fu and Nanny Li saluted.

"Master is back." Jia Min stood up and went to meet her, with a look of worry in her eyes, as if she was worried about the rumors about Yu'er outside.

Lin Ruhai supported Jia Min's elbow and did not ask her to salute.

"There's no need for such a gift between husband and wife."

As he spoke, he took Jia Min's hand and sat down at the table. "Where's Yu'er?"

Hearing the sound, Nanny Li carefully handed the swaddle in her hand to Lin Ruhai.

"Yu'er is getting better and better, she deserves to be the child of you and me." Lin Ruhai chatted and laughed with Jia Min while teasing her daughter.

"Don't make it too funny, you just drank milk, it will look good when you spit up milk later." Jia Min stopped Lin Ruhai from pinching her daughter's face.This girl's face is the most delicate, how can she stand such rough hands.

"Master can still laugh, but I'm dying of anxiety." Jia Min said, took the tea handed over by the big maid, and offered it to Lin Ruhai herself. "As for those inconsequential rumors outside, the master has an idea. Sister Yu is the treasure I begged for five years, and I don't ask her to fly to a branch and become rich and powerful. As long as she lives in peace and prosperity, Just be happy. What does the master say?"

When Jia Min said this, he expressed his attitude.Although the Lin family changed their surname to Han, they are still Manchu after all.Niu Hulu's family name is also a Manchurian surname, and girls in the family must participate in the draft.It's just that this draft is also somewhat maneuverable, the key depends on what Lin Ruhai thinks.According to Jia Min's mind, it is best to avoid the election or put down the sign in the re-election.At that time, I will choose a family background for my daughter that is simple, does not need to be rich, but must be a good young man who treats her daughter well. Anyway, I will prepare a dowry for her daughter that will last her a lifetime.Of course, if you want to be close to home, you should also take care of it, so as not to marry far away and worry about yourself.

Looking at Jia Min's charming eyes, Lin Ruhai felt happy. His wife has become more and more attractive over the years. Fortunately, he was the one who got there first and hid her in the back house. Otherwise, with her current It looks like it will attract countless bees and butterflies.

"What can I think?" Lin Ruhai cleared his throat, and spoke slowly under Jia Min's increasingly menacing stare.Carefully handed the swaddling baby back to Nanny Li, and waved them off.Then, he led Jia Min to the inner room.

"Don't worry, Yu'er is not only your baby, but also my favorite. I will definitely protect her and not let her end." As he said, he squeezed Jia Min's little hand, causing Jia Min's face to turn red. She rolled her eyes coquettishly.It's not serious in broad daylight.

Lin Ruhai chuckled, and continued: "Half a month ago, I reported this matter to the emperor in the secret book. I thought, this matter is over like this. It's just that there are new rumors today. It was rumored from Jinling, as a husband, you need to find out whether there is someone behind this rumor."

Jia Min was originally intelligent, and when he heard it, he immediately thought of the local emperor of Jinling, the Zhen family.

"However, madam can turn this rumor around first." Lin Ruhai smiled and whispered in Jia Min's ear, "The words came from the eldest lady of the imperial merchant Xue's family."

Jia Minfeng narrowed her eyes, that girl from the Xue family?

Jia Min is very popular in the circle of ladies in the south of the Yangtze River, not only because of Lin Ruhai's official position, but also because of her own long-sleeved skills and good at trying to figure out people's hearts.But in Madam's circle, no news can be found.

Isn't Xue's family home in Jinling the house where her good second sister-in-law's sister got married?What good can there be from being raised by a daughter of the Wang family!snort!Jia Min began to vent his anger.

Back then, when her good second sister-in-law had just passed through the family, she was eager to seize power because she was the daughter of the royal family.Not only to manage the inner courtyard, but also to manage the treasury.In charge of the personnel affairs in the second brother's room, and wanted to interfere in the sister-in-law's marriage, even talking about the elder brother's lack of concubines and people in the room.Her tutor from the Wang family is really good, very good!Because the mother favored the second brother, she arranged for the second brother to earn the title with the eldest brother.Don't even think about it, although the second brother is also the first son, he is the second son. Although his mother loves him, the eldest brother who is the eldest son can only inherit the title, and the inner court is naturally ruled by his sister-in-law Zhang.She was a new bride who had just entered the house and was doing a lot of work, and she always opened her mouth to "rule" and shut up "rule" to her sister-in-law, as if she knew more about etiquette.Isn't it because I'm close to my elder brother, which hinders her eyes?If her father hadn't directly suppressed her back then, and Shang Zhezi asked her elder brother to seize the title, her good second sister-in-law would have fallen out of control.Really, there are so many girls who are of the same age as the second brother, why did the father and mother order this royal girl? It's really annoying.

Jia Min felt a puff of air stuck in his chest.Go up, can't go up, go down, can't go down, the end is uncomfortable and panic.hum!As long as she thinks of that royal daughter and good second wife, she has to press hard to keep from losing control.When she gave birth to brother Han, the second sister-in-law also had a young son. She said that she had a piece of jade in her mouth when she fell into the grass, and she broke up with her because of this letter.A small baby with a jade in his mouth, why didn't he choke to death!

Lin Ruhai went to the study to deal with the rumors, while Jia Min was groaning angrily in the inner room, pacing back and forth gnashing his teeth.

I have to show some color to that little girl who spread rumors! ! !
