Red Mansion: He Doesn't Want to Bend

A group of people talked for a while, and Fang sat down again.

Suddenly, Fei Cui came to report, saying that the second master wanted to see his nephew, and asked Lin Jue to go to the front yard.Jia Min saw that there were only female guests here, and it would indeed be inconvenient for Lin Jue to be here again.

So Lin Jue was called to come forward, straighten his clothes, and softly instructed: "When you see your uncle, don't mess around, you must know how to behave. When I come back at night, I will ask your father about it."

Sure enough, in the eyes of parents, children will never grow up, even if Lin Jue is so young and mature, Jia Min can't rest assured.Lin Jue couldn't help laughing: "My son must listen to my mother. If there is anything wrong, my mother can just punish me."

After hearing this, Jia's mother said, "Why does a family need to talk about two families? In your own home, don't arrest him. It's common for young people to be playful, and Min'er doesn't need to be so eloquent."

Lin Jue thanked him again, and then followed.

Then Jia Min turned her head and said to Jia Mu: "Mother, don't look at Jue'er like this. My two sons and daughters look cute, and each of them has big thoughts in their stomachs. If one is not careful, it will cause trouble."

"I'm fine looking at Brother Jue and Sister Dai." Mother Jia couldn't hide the smile on her face, "Now you know how to say such things, but you have forgotten what you did when you were at home. You How much did you destroy father's most precious calligraphy, painting, vase and glass cup? Your father loves you and never said a word about you. Why do you have to be harsh on Brother Jue now?"

Wang Xifeng also pursed her lips and smiled: "Oh, my ancestor's words, why did it sound a little sour, who of you eats old vinegar?"

Having said that, I also sighed in my heart.Even Jia's mother said such things, and she heard Mrs. Wang talk about Jia Min's situation when she was at home in the past. It can be inferred that Jia Min used to have a high status in Jia's mansion and was very favored.

Not to mention the three springs in front of me, I am afraid that Yuan Chun, the eldest girl who has entered the palace, is not half as good as Jia Min.

Jia Mu smiled and ordered Yuanyang to hit Wang Xifeng's mouth. They made a fuss for a while before they stopped.

Mother Jia asked Wang Xifeng, "Has your aunt's yard been tidied up?"

"I bought it early, and it's right next to my ancestor's yard. It didn't take much time to come here. I also opened a storeroom and chose clothes and satins. Now, when summer and autumn turn around, they are also used as new clothes. My aunt is out to see you." For those who are too big in the world, it is our intention to use the materials at home."

"Look at Lian's daughter-in-law's mouth." Although Jia Min disagreed with Mrs. Wang, she didn't show it on her face.Although Wang Xifeng is Mrs. Wang's niece, she seems to be taking care of the family now and is very good at life.If he stretches out his hand and doesn't hit the smiling face, Jia Min won't be able to get her face down.

"She came back today because she cared about you, and restrained herself a bit. After living at home for a long time, you will know how powerful her mouth is." Jia Mu lazily leaned back on the chair, holding Jia Min's hand , said in a low voice: "I'm tired too, you all go back first, and come back after a while. Min'er is here, accompany me."

Having said so much, everyone got up one after another and retreated out.

Daiyu didn't take a nap today, so Mother Jia ordered someone to carry her to her bedroom and put her down.

Jia Min supported Jia's mother to lean on the soft couch, and sat down on a soft chair beside her.Mother Jia was indeed a little tired, but she refused to let go of her little daughter's hand.Lying down on the soft couch with eyes closed for a nap, he said, "I heard that you were seriously ill last year."

"My daughter is not filial, and she makes my mother worry."

"Min'er, you are easily broken if you are strong, but you will be hurt if you are very intelligent. You have been smart since you were young, and you are more brilliant than ordinary girls. Your father and I have raised you as a man since we were young."

"Daughter knows..."

Mother Jia sighed and opened her eyes and looked at her: "Those who should go can't stay, you have to understand this truth. If I were like you, I should have followed when your father left."

There were tears in Jia Min's eyes: "Mother, don't say such a thing. Since my second son left, I have been in a daze for many times, and I don't know how to count. Fortunately, Jue'er woke me up and taught me that he and Daiyu are still in my knees. "

Jia Mu nodded: "Your son is well-raised. You only need to take care of him, and there is no need for thousands of others."

Jia's mother gave birth to two sons and a daughter, and Jia Min was the only one who loved her, but she had a deep understanding of this.The two sons are unreliable, but Jia Min is the one who is most like his ancestors, and he can't help but be a daughter.Seeing that Jia Min's son Lin Jue is supportive now, he is naturally happy for her.

"Jia's mansion is in danger now, and you come back at this time." Thinking of the future of Jia's mansion, Jia's mother could not help but sigh. "It looks like a bunch of flowers on the outside, but it's also in chaos on the inside. They are in a hurry to go to the doctor. Seeing that the saint is old, they want to send Yuan girl to the palace to fight for their lives."

A sneer appeared on the corner of Jia Min's lips: "I mentioned this earlier, why should they go out when they are in the palace. The second elder brother and the second sister-in-law did this, but the mother did not stop them. The news from the family has spread over the years I was shocked by all the incidents. It’s okay not to mention the matter of Yuan girl. The second sister-in-law gave birth to Baoyu. I heard that my mother loves him very much, and he is as heart-warming. The son of the stately mansion, let outsiders say it. You are a waste in the gentle village. I can't really see what my mother does."

Jia Mu has always loved Baoyu so much that she would never hear a bad word from him.Now when Jia Min said it, he was not angry. He still smiled and said, "Your nephew is a good man. Now you say this because you have never seen him. When you ask him to meet you at night, you will know that he is a good man." child."

"Look at what mother said, it's not good to have Pearl first? I liked Pearl very much before."

"Even though Zhu'er is good, she is not as caring as Baoyu." After Jia's mother said this, she added, "Don't always talk about Jia's affairs, but also talk about you. You have a good time in Lin's family. Our aunt treats you well." OK?"

Lin Hai treated Jia Min with great kindness, although it was not as noble as Jia's mansion, but he was still pampered.Lin Hai didn't have any other concubines for her to worry about. They lived their own lives without the intrigues of Jia's mansion, which made them more comfortable than when they were in Jia's mansion.

"Everything is fine, I just miss my mother."

"You only gave birth to one concubine son, which is enough for you, but not enough for the Lin family. I took Liuli and Linlang away to you in the first place to prevent this. It's just that their stomachs are so disappointing, and no concubine son was born. .”

But Jia Min shook her head: "You can't blame them, the master didn't let them touch you, but how could you have bastards?"

Although the grandson is good, it is true that the daughter is living well.With just these two or three sentences, Mother Jia knew that no one in Lin's residence would dare to be angry with Jia Min on weekdays.It seems that Lin Hai really has a long-term love, otherwise he would not have only had a pair of sons and daughters for so many years.

"Okay, that's all, my sister Min, I don't have to worry about it in the future."

"But I'm worried about mother." Jia Min held Jia's mother's hand and said earnestly: "Now that Jia's mansion is in danger, what should mother do?"

"I'm half buried in the ground, what are you worried about..."

Powerless to turn around, now it's just a matter of taking one step at a time.

Jia Min was shocked when he heard this.Fortunately, she didn't let go last year, and she was able to return to the capital alive.Fortunately, she has a brother who has a son to be close to.If there is no child, only Daiyu is left.If she goes, Daiyu will be brought up by her mother in Jia's house.It's just that every step is frightening, every sentence is dangerous, how can Daiyu live!

Fortunately, she kept Lin Jue.

Lin Jue followed the boy to the front yard, and went all the way to the study.Just after entering the room, I saw a middle-aged man in a dark purple silk dress sitting on the seat talking to Lin Hai. He looked very polite and looked like a scholar.

Knowing that this is the second uncle Jia Zheng.

Lin Jue stepped forward and cupped his hands, first saluted Jia Zheng: "I have seen my father." Then he lifted up his robe respectfully, and saluted Jia Zheng: "Lin Jue greets my second uncle."

Jia Zheng hurriedly stretched out his hand to help him up: "Brother Jue, get up."

Lin Jue stood still in front of the two of them. When Jia Zheng saw Lin Jue, he felt that his features looked like his younger sister Jia Min, but his face was like that of Lin Hai.It has both the handsomeness of a man and the beauty of a woman.It was heard that Lin Hai was the one who taught him when he was enlightened, and when I saw him today, he was really outstanding.

Ordinary people always praise Jia Zheng's second son, Baoyu, for his good birth, but now Jia Zheng compares him to Lin Jue, but he is not so good.

"Ru Hai, you have taught me well, my nephew." Jia Zheng smiled and told Lin Jue to sit down.

Lin Jue sat down, and said again: "Uncle has a great reputation. I heard that there is a cousin named Baoyu in my uncle's family, who is very talented and knowledgeable."

This is Lin Jue's truth.When he was forced to look at the Red Mansion, although he couldn't feel the merits of Jia Baoyu's poems and articles, he had heard people say that Jia Baoyu's knowledge was actually very good.It's just that he doesn't like to read the Four Books and Five Classics that people respected at the time.

It's ridiculous to say that Jia Baoyu survived by relying on the feudal family, but he was also a protester of the feudal forces.

He is not an ordinary person. Compared with him, except for Daiyu, the rest will fall into the same pattern.

Lin Jue felt that she was just a layman, so there was nothing to praise.He loves the splendor of the world, and he doesn't want to embarrass his parents.So I didn't like reading at first, but when I came here, I read the Four Books and Five Classics by heart in order to survive.

However, Jia Zheng had a deep resentment towards Jia Baoyu: "He is nothing, and he can bring it up. He is just a mediocre and greedy person, so it is worth not to mention it."

Lin Jue smiled to himself, took the tea on the side and ate it, not wanting to be entangled in it.

Jia Zheng, however, loves learning the most. Lin Hai was awarded Tanhua back then, and he has always appreciated his knowledge. "Ruhai, brother Jue, has he passed the child's exam?"

"I only asked him to take the exam this year, and I listed the students. I wanted to ask him to take the provincial exam this year, but I didn't expect that he was ordered to return to Beijing. I had to ask someone to accompany him back to Suzhou after a while."

The Lin family was originally from Suzhou, but they had to go back to take the provincial examination.

"The endowment is already very good, Ru Hai, you are demanding." From Jia Zheng's point of view, compared with Baoyu who only knows how to read idle books and make trouble with girls, Lin Jue is many times stronger. "It's true that the capital city is a bit far from Suzhou, so it's okay. I'll ask Brother Lian to go there and go back with Brother Jue."

It's so good, Lin Hai is worried that he won't be able to take time to accompany Lin Jue back to his hometown.

He said to Lin Jue, "I haven't thanked your uncle yet."
