Auntie Lin of the Red Chamber

Wu Jin's heart was surging and he was very excited. He tossed and turned until the cock crowed before falling asleep. When he woke up the next day, it was naturally almost time for lunch.In the morning, Nanny Lin knew from the nanny who was on duty last night, "Master is here to see Auntie." During breakfast, she saw that she was still sound asleep, so she didn't call her.

After having a late breakfast, Wu Jin quickly asked the maid to bring the portraits of his sons, and he looked at them again and again, but he was not satisfied, so he invited Sister Liu to visit together, and proudly showed off to Sister Liu how many sons they had How cute, how clever... Liu Ying, who was always chatty, felt inferior and ran away.For the next period of time, until the confinement period, you can go directly to see real people. Basically, apart from eating, drinking, and sleeping, Wu Jin just enjoys watching the portraits of his sons with his arms around him.

With the comparison of the triplets washing three banquets, the first birthday banquet of the young master of the Lin family can only be described as warm and warm.In this regard, the old lady felt a little unsatisfactory, and added a lot of things to the grandson's house.When Lin Ruhai went to see his son, the furnishings in the elder son's room were all like an old lady pretending to complain: "The old lady treats her grandson better than her son."The old lady leaned forward and back together with a belly laugh, and when she finished laughing, she blamed: "I'm not ashamed, I'm an old man, and I'm still grabbing things from my son."Lin Ruhai had no choice but to touch his nose and leave.

He is going on a long journey, and there are only old, weak, women and children left at home.At this time, the disadvantages of the family's withering are highlighted. Once he leaves, and the son is still young, there will be no more powerful men.I was very worried, arranged layers of stewards and guards, and greeted my friends and colleagues before I followed Yongjun Wang Tuzhen to Yangzhou, the next stop of the inspection, with endless worries.

In fact, Lin Ruhai really worried too much. In Suzhou City, no thief Xiaoxiao had the guts to go to the door of Lin's house.Also, Lin Ruhai's classmates and friends sent people to visit every day, and the colleagues in the yamen even arranged for patrolling guards to walk around the Lin family several times a day.

Wu Jin, who is out of confinement, besides greeting the old lady every day and visiting his sons, he just picked up sewing again.She wanted to make clothes for her sons. She didn't have the attitude of coping with the tasks assigned by the old lady before, but this time she was willing and sincerely took up needle and thread to make clothes.On this day, Wu Jin finished watching her sons, and then went on to do her needlework.On the other side, in the main courtyard, unlike Wu Jin's leisure, it was indeed quiet, and the little maids were so frightened that they didn't dare to breathe. The reason was that the usually generous wife threw things in a fit of rage.

Jia Min was so angry because she received a letter from her natal mother. In the letter, in addition to asking her about her current situation as usual, asking her to take care of her body, she also persuaded her to do one thing, that is, to adopt a concubine by her side, and to choose a qualified child. Those who are filial to her will be recorded in her name.This letter almost cut off all her hopes and announced that she would no longer have her own child, so for the first time, Jia Min was so angry that she dropped her teacup after reading her mother's letter.

After several years of marriage, she had no pregnancy. Jia Min was anxious, worried, and distressed.After the two concubines were not pregnant, Jia Min even suspected in his heart that Lin Ruhai was actually infertile.With this kind of thinking, Jia Min survived no matter how many strange eyes, gossip, and sneering from her own mother-in-law.It wasn't until Wu Jin got pregnant after entering the house, which directly proved Lin Ruhai's fertility, that all the pressure of childlessness came back to Jia Min's heart.When Jia Min couldn't bear it again and again, it was Jia's mother's comforting letters that saved her, and the so-called secret recipe for childbirth gave Jia Min endless expectations.Another few years have passed, and the aunt in the family has given birth to four, and Jia Min still has no pregnancy news.Mother Jia gave up, and Mother Jia began to persuade her daughter to adopt the son born in the concubine's room.Jia Min was very angry, annoyed, and desperate, and her own mother thought she couldn't have a baby.

Mother Jia was also helpless, her daughter drank a pond of bitter medicine soup, but she still didn't see any improvement, and she was nearly thirty years old, so her hopes were slim.For the sake of her daughter's future, it is imperative to adopt a concubine.Also, taking advantage of the fact that the child is young, ignorant, and mature, even if he knows the biological mother in the future, there is still a saying that it is better to be kind than to be kind.Moreover, in how many families, the concubine is raised only to recognize his aunt, and treats his biological mother and aunt as nothing. This shows that the concubine is well-raised and caring.

Mother Jia only thought that her daughter would be sad after reading her letter of advice, but she would carry it out.Then the full moon gift for the triplets of the Lin family should not only be given as a gift for the bastards, but a generous gift.So Jia's mother dug out the New Year's gift lists from her daughters in previous years, compared them, selected the items, sorted out the list, and asked the maid to take them to the second daughter-in-law to prepare.

Jia Mu was free, but she still didn't rest, thinking secretly.I didn't pay attention to it in the past, although I also felt that the gift from my daughter was generous enough to make me face, but I only thought it was because my daughter was filial to her mother's family and was close to me. It can be estimated that the family background of the Lin family may not be as rich as that of the Xue family in "a good year with a lot of snow", but it is considered extremely rich...

What a coincidence that the Jia family's gift came on the day of the full moon of the triplets.This time the presents were considered luxurious, and the head of the Jia family, Lai Da and his wife, personally escorted them.When Jia Min saw Master Lai's daughter-in-law, she was a little surprised, and called her "sister" to greet her.Lai's daughter-in-law is a maid who has accompanied Jia Mu for many years and has always been Jia Mu's right-hand man. She not only watched Jia Min grow up, but also taught and led Jia Min when she was learning housekeeping.The relationship between Jia Min and her is quite unusual, especially since we haven't seen each other for many years, and we are still at her in-law's house in Suzhou, thousands of miles away from the capital, I feel even more cordial.The troubles that have been lingering in my heart for many days were temporarily forgotten, and they chatted very intimately and warmly.

Although Lai everyone is also happy to see the girl who has grown up, but because of the task, it is a little different from Jia Min's pure joy. As smart as Jia Min, he can feel it, and the atmosphere slowly becomes cold. down.Everyone Lai was also depressed and unwilling. Based on her understanding of Jia Min, Jia Min would be annoyed if this matter was mentioned, and maybe even angry.But the night before their departure, Mother Jia specially recruited them and entrusted them to send the couple to Suzhou this time just to complete this matter.

Sure enough, as soon as he said the matter, Jia Min's face turned cold for a moment.If Jia Min were to say something heartfelt, it would be her, Jia Min, who would rather go to the Lin family to adopt an heir than raise a child born to her husband and another woman, and even use her own sacrifice to Raising the status of a child born to a rival in love, Jia Min felt that this was the most blatant insult to her.This matter was mentioned by Jia's mother herself, and Jia Min even felt that she was betrayed by her biological mother.

Jia Min couldn't accept it, and was very angry. He was so angry that he wanted to disregard his status and face, and rushed in front of everyone Lai, yelling.But Jia Min only had a sliver of rationality left, so she forcibly held back, until her beautiful face became ferocious, she still held back tightly.Because that sliver of reason reminded her over and over again that she had no children, and if she broke with her natal family again, her status would be in jeopardy.
