Qinglian in the Red Chamber

Lin Ruhai is not a perfect person.He has many advantages, but also many disadvantages.Among all his shortcomings, the most troublesome one is that this Lin Ruhai loves to vent his anger very much.Especially, when it comes to his precious daughter, there is absolutely no reason to tell him.

Take the fact that Daiyu was wronged because of Jia Baoyu's open mouth, Lin Ruhai can put the blame on everyone in the Jia family.For this reason, Jia's family lived in dire straits.However, that's another story.

On the second day after returning from Jia's house, Lin Han was packed by Lin Ruhai early in the morning, thrown into a carriage and sent back to the academy.

Jia Min sent Lin Ruhai away, finished handling the family affairs, and was about to go to Yanziwu to see her daughter, when Zhuran reported that the eldest wife and second grandmother of the Jia family had arrived.

It stands to reason that Mrs. Zhang should bring her eldest daughter-in-law.It's just that the eldest daughter-in-law Xu is not as good at talking as the second daughter-in-law Sister Feng, and can make people happy.

Jia Min asked someone to invite Mrs. Zhang and Sister Feng in.Although she was annoyed by what happened yesterday, she still stood in the yard and waited for Mrs. Zhang herself.In any case, in terms of etiquette, Jia Min would never ask anyone to find out her faults.

After being courteous and courteous, Mrs. Zhang said: "The old lady is worried about that child Yu'er, so she sent me to come and have a look."

With that said, Mrs. Zhang took a carved lacquer box handed over by Sister Feng, and pushed it in front of Jia Min along with a gift list.

"Is Yu'er still in good health? Were you tired yesterday?"

"Old lady Lao remembers that Yu'er is fine. However, according to the maid in her yard, the child didn't sleep well last night, so I'm afraid he's still lying on the bed at this time." Jia Min He said with a smile, his tone was friendly but not warm.

Mrs. Zhang sighed, but she didn't blame Jia Min.The adults in the family would be annoyed if this incident happened to a girl yesterday, besides, Jia Min's temper has never been one to suffer.

Mrs. Zhang glanced at Sister Feng.

Sister Feng smiled knowingly and said, "My aunt is so lucky. The little cousin is a rare and beautiful person. I fell in love with her just by taking a look at her. Yesterday, all the sisters were there, so I couldn't say a few words to her. .Today, while none of them are here, I want to have a good chat with my cousin..."

"It's okay, Yu'er doesn't have any sisters or anything, and she's lonely all day long. I'd like to thank you for being able to talk to her." Jia Min smiled, and then told Mei Xiang next to her: "You can go and talk to her." Send Lian's second grandma to Yanziwu to see Yu'er."

Sister Feng said goodbye to Jia Min and Mrs. Zhang, and Mei Xiang led them out.

Sister Feng was sent away.Only then did Mrs. Zhang say to Jia Min: "I also know that what happened yesterday is our fault. I didn't take care of Baoyu's child. My sister is angry. My sister-in-law can understand. To be honest, if my daughter encounters this That's right, I even have the heart to kill someone."

"Sister-in-law's words really speak to my heart. I have only one daughter like Yu'er. I grew up pampered and pampered by my master and I since I was a child. It is Brother Han who is facing Yu'er. That is also to prevent the stars from being pampered by the moon. Over the years, Yu'er has never suffered any grievances. What happened yesterday, I really..."

Mrs. Zhang patted Jia Min's hand reassuringly, and said in a low voice, "It's just that this matter involves the reputation of Yu'er's child, so it's not easy to make a fuss."

Jia Min rolled her eyes at Zhang Shi angrily, curled her lips and said, "If it wasn't for that, I would have made a fuss on the spot yesterday..."

Mrs. Zhang still comforted Jia Min with a good temper. "Although the old lady loves Baoyu, it's not unreasonable. Yu'er is the old lady's granddaughter. How can the old lady not love her?"

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Zhang lowered her voice and said softly: "After you left yesterday, Baoyu was cleaned up by the second uncle."

Jia Min snorted angrily.As for the second brother, a scholar who has no strength to restrain a chicken, how much can he fight...

Seeing that Jia Min was just looking down at his nails, completely unmoved, Mrs. Zhang had no choice but to persist and said, "Your elder brother told me later..."

After muttering for a while, Jia Minfeng stared and looked at Zhang in disbelief.

"Sister-in-law, are you serious?"

"I arranged for people to clean and decorate the yard. How can it be fake?" Zhang said, "That child Baoyu is almost at the age of Guan, but he is like a child. He has no rules and etiquette. It is you Big brother, even your two nephews don’t want to see that child Baoyu. But, I think with your big brother, instead of letting Baoyu go out and talk nonsense all day long to cause trouble for the family, it’s better to just let the old lady I thought about keeping him in a yard and raising him like this. Although our family is not as beautiful as before, it is still possible to raise him for nothing..."

Jia Min didn't speak, she was still immersed in the news she just heard.

Mrs. Zhang took a sip from the teacup and breathed a sigh of relief. At least it was not easy to calm down this sister-in-law.

At this time, Lin Qing's family came suddenly.

"Ma'am, someone from the House of Internal Affairs said, please pass a sign into the palace to greet the Empress Dowager."

Jia Min heard it, his eyes flickered, and he said calmly: "Understood, you can ask the housekeeper to make arrangements."

After waiting for the order of Lin Qing's family to leave, Mrs. Zhang put down the teacup in her hand, and asked very puzzled: "It's really strange, why did you ask my sister to go to the palace to pay her respects?"

The family members of foreign officials are not required to enter the palace to pay their respects, and Lin Ruhai's next appointment has not yet been made.At this time, the harem recruited Jia Min into the palace to pay his respects, could it be that Lin Ruhai's official position will continue...

Mrs. Zhang felt strange in her heart, but she only thought about Lin Ruhai.

"How do you know, maybe it's because our master is loyal to the king." Jia Min said, with a puzzled expression on his face.

Seeing this, Mrs. Zhang turned around and persuaded Jia Min: "Since someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs has sent a message, my sister should obey the arrangement. This is also the blessing of my sister's family. Speaking of which, even the family of an official in Beijing is not Anyone can pass a sign to enter the palace to pay their respects. Even those who are qualified to enter the palace to pay their respects, handing the sign depends on whether the nobles in the palace have time to see..."

Jia Min smiled and nodded in agreement.

The two chatted for a while about paying their respects, and Mrs. Zhang was ready to go back.

"Since my sister is still preparing to enter the palace to pay her respects, I will stop bothering her. I still need to ask my sister to ask someone to call Brother Feng, we should go home."

The maid who went to call for Sister Feng took about a cup of tea, and Sister Feng came over, followed by Daiyu.

"I've met my aunt." Daiyu greeted Zhang Shifu.

"Why did Yu'er come here? Is she okay? Brother Feng is too, why don't you stop this child?" Mrs. Zhang pulled Daiyu to her side, looked at her carefully, and saw that she looked okay. , Only then did I feel relieved.

Daiyu smiled and replied: "Auntie, don't blame the second sister-in-law. The second sister-in-law didn't ask me to come, she said she came to see me, but it didn't make me sick again from exhaustion. But, since I already know My aunt is here, why not come to pay her respects?"

"You are a polite child." After finishing speaking, Mrs. Zhang said to Jia Min: "My sister and brother-in-law have taught me well. I see that Brother Han and Sister Yu are both very good."

"Sister-in-law, stop praising her, you don't know that this child is actually a naughty one."

Jia Min said with a smile, but Mrs. Zhang refused to listen.

"Yu'er is a naughty child, my sister is too modest. I have met so many girls, and there is no one who is more sensible and outstanding than Yu'er."

As she said that, Mrs. Zhang pointed to Sister Feng who was standing beside her and said, "I originally thought that Brother Feng was a very outstanding person. He acted neatly and could speak with his mouth. Now I'm with Yu'er Together, but compared to her..."

"Grandma has Sister Lin, so she doesn't love me anymore..." Sister Feng took the opportunity to gag, but she teased Jia Min and Daiyu.

"Don't worry, your mother-in-law doesn't love you, it's the same with Lian Er who loves you." Jia Min said with a smile, "Auntie loves you too..."

Mrs. Zhang smiled along with them.Taking a peek, she glanced at Sister Feng, and seeing Sister Feng nodding to herself, she hugged Daiyu again and stroked her.

"Yu'er is a good boy, and he will be blessed in the future." Zhang said lovingly to Daiyu.

After hearing this, Jia Min only smiled.

After waiting for Mrs. Zhang to take Sister Feng back, Jia Min hugged Daiyu in front of her and asked, "You child is too stubborn! We are all relatives, what about those vain etiquettes?" Is it important to have your own body and bones? How about it? But where do you feel uncomfortable?"

After asking Daiyu, Jia Min cut down the number of people serving Daiyu.

"Mother, I'm fine." Daiyu took Jia Min's hand and acted coquettishly, "I know mother loves me, but I'm not too sick. Besides, my brother also said to move around more, It's not a bad thing either. Mother, don't worry..."

After finishing speaking, Daiyu saw that Jia Min's expression was still disapproving, so she immediately changed her expression, and said in a condescending way: "Mother is not happy to see me, so I'd better go back..."

As she said that, Daiyu made a gesture to go out of the house.

That look, that tone of voice, it looks like you're not wronged.

Jia Min sighed helplessly, and said, "It's almost noon, you finally came here, where are you going?"

Daiyu stood there with her pink face downcast, rubbing her toes back and forth on the ground, humming with her small mouth, "Go back and nest..."

"Since you're all here, let's have lunch at Mother's place. After eating, don't rush to go back, just take a nap at Mother's place."

Waiting for Jia Min to ask someone to prepare Daiyu's lunch, but seeing that Daiyu was still grinding the circle with her head down, she couldn't help laughing and said, "Come here soon. Are there any flowers on the ground? Do you want to be happy?" Forget it."

Jia Min pulled Daiyu to rub her a little arrogantly.
