Auntie Lin of the Red Chamber

Here in the Lin Mansion, Lin Ruhai and Wu Jin discussed what special products they would bring to their hometown.In the Rongguo Mansion on the other side of the capital, there were also two people discussing their Lin family. One was the old lord of the Jia Mansion, Jia Mu, and the other was her favorite second son.

The reason was that Mother Jia found out that her good son-in-law Lin Ruhai had visited her home for the first time, and it had been a month since Lin Ruhai didn't have any contact with Jia's family.Besides, in this capital city, the Lin family has no close relatives. The Jia family is the closest family to the Lin family. Shouldn't Lin Ruhai spend more time with the Jia family?Besides, Lin Ruhai hasn't started taking office yet, so he has nothing to do.

Mother Jia thought about it for a long time, but she didn't think there was any legitimate reason to explain Lin Ruhai's behavior.All she could think of was that either Lin Ruhai and the Jia family were outcasts, or that Lin Ruhai had listened to the seductive and slanderous rumors of that Wu family... and no matter what the reason was, this situation was not very good, and she couldn't let it go on like this. She had to find a way to make Lin Ruhai understand that above the government, there must be an alliance to watch over and help each other, and the Jialin and Lin families have a natural alliance relationship...

So, on the second day, Lin Ruhai received a summoning message from his old mother-in-law, and it was still Wu Jin who conveyed it to him.Because when the steward of Jia's family came to Lin's house with the task assigned by Jia's mother, it was already time, and Lin Ruhai had already left the house.Lin Feng was in charge of the reception of the Lin family. Seeing that it was the master's Yue family, he was also very solemn. He invited him to the small living room to serve tea and water.

After sending away the manager of the Jia family's letter delivery, Lin Feng thought about it and felt that the old lady Jia didn't say the specific time, so she probably wasn't in a hurry.And under normal circumstances, the letter is sent the day before, and the door will come to the door the next day.And their master has been so busy lately that he leaves early and returns late, and today he is still having dinner with the same year, so it must be bad to rush over and disturb, let's talk about it after the master comes back.He also thought that he still has work to do, maybe he won't be able to meet the master, and if he is worried about passing the message to the concierge, he can only pass the message through Aunt Wu, and it happens that his old lady is serving by Aunt Wu's side.

So when Lin Feng went home for dinner at noon, he saw his mother, Nanny Lin, before talking to her about it.Nanny Lin sent a message to Wu Jin when she went to work in the afternoon, and Wu Jin waited until Lin Ruhai came home to her at night before telling her about it.Therefore, the current situation was created. Lin Ruhai received the news from Wu Jin that Jiamu wanted to see him just before going to sleep.

Lin Ruhai and Lin Feng's master and servant had the same brain circuit when thinking about this matter, but Lin Ruhai didn't plan to go to Jia's house tomorrow.Because he has already made an appointment with a friend, and tomorrow he will go to his friend's house to visit his old mother, and it is said that he is already seriously ill, to the point where the imperial doctor issued a critical illness notice.Anyway, Mother Jia was not in a hurry, and it was estimated that there was nothing serious about it, so Lin Ruhai thought that tomorrow should go according to the original plan.

Little did he know that his mother-in-law was so angry that she cursed at him.How should I put it, since Jia Daishan passed away and Jia Jing went to a Taoist temple to practice again, Jia's mother, as the actual person in charge of the Jia family, has stood at the top of the Jia family's pyramid for many years.What she said slowly evolved into an imperial decree in the Jia family.If she said who she wanted to see, it didn't matter when or what that person was doing, that person had to report to her right away safely.

So when Mother Jia wanted to see her son-in-law, she habitually asked the person in charge to deliver a vague message.She believed that even if Lin Ruhai was bewildered by his little wife, Lin Ruhai would come to see her soon just for the name of filial piety.But who knows, her good son-in-law Lin Ruhai just didn't come.

From the time she sent out the order, she thought that her son-in-law would come to the door in about an hour.She also heard from the steward who sent the letter: Master Lin has gone out to be a guest.But she thought, now that she, the elder, summoned him, Lin Ruhai would definitely bid farewell to Jia's house, and specially notified Mrs. Wang and others to avoid him.But the left waiter didn't come, the right waiter didn't come, until the sun went down, Jia's house started to light up the lights, but there was no sign of Lin Ruhai.The anger in Jia Mu's heart could no longer be restrained, and she opened her mouth to curse at this hypocritical and unfilial son...

Jia's mother had already thought about it, if she didn't come today, Lin Ruhai would definitely come to Jia's house tomorrow, and Jia Zheng would not be allowed to receive her at that time, but Jia Lian, a half-year-old junior, would go, and there would be no good tea or water to entertain her. , take it directly to her, let her have a good talk with her good son-in-law...

But who knows, on the second day, Lin Ruhai still didn't come, only a small steward came to talk back and forth, saying that their master would not come today, he had already made an appointment with someone, but he would come tomorrow.

Mother Jia was really angry. She was only angry yesterday, but today she was really angry, even to the extreme.The ferocious face scared Mrs. Wang who was about to say something sarcastic, she quickly stopped her flags and drums, and hid aside to load wood.After all, Mother Jia was an old man for many years, so she soon calmed down and brought back the shrewdness that had been idle for many years.

So, when the little steward who passed on the message from the Lin family finished speaking and raised his head, he saw Jia Mu's kind face was peaceful.Mother Jia was still condescending, and chatted with the young man who came to pass the message leniently before letting him go.Manager Lin secretly sighed, this Jia family is not only so rich, but also very generous, it is really a rare kind family.

Mother Jia watched as the young steward of the Lin family was led out, and then muttered to herself, "No matter how good this horse is, it must be put on the reins, otherwise, it will be a waste of money for others to raise." . " Hearing this, Mrs. Wang, who was standing by the side, trembled in her heart...

The friend Lin Ruhai is going to visit today is called Zhan Xitong, who was in the same year as Lin Ruhai, and after the palace examination together, he was ranked No.10 in the top ten face saints, unfortunately.

Here is an explanation.Because there will be 300 examinees in each palace examination, although the emperor is in charge of the examination in name, but in fact, the emperor, who is very powerful, just sits for a while and turns around when the examination starts, and then leaves to deal with his military affairs Big deal.The following things such as reviewing and approving the papers are done by the officials of the Ministry of Rites, but the top ten will be selected and handed over to the emperor, who will then be judged by the emperor.

Everyone must understand that not all emperors are talented and knowledgeable. If they are allowed to take the imperial examination, some of them may not even be able to pass the imperial examination.But the test papers in front of them are among the top ten in the country. How can those emperors who are only at the level of scholars really judge whether they are good or bad?So the emperor had no choice but to look at his eyes.But fortunately, there is a saying that Wen Wu is the first and Wu Wu is the second.There is also the fact that the top ten all competed for the emperor with their true talents and learning all the way. Usually, at this time, everyone's level is almost the same.Therefore, the emperor can take it for granted without any guilt, as long as he chooses the good talents in his eyes, he will be fine.

And the unlucky Zhan Xitong was the same age, so well educated, so good that even Lin Ruhai really admired him, but unfortunately, he happened to have a face that didn't fit the emperor's eyes.It's not ugly, it's pretty handsome to say the least, but it's a bit feminine, even if the expression is dull, it can be called treacherous.If it was placed in the studio in modern times, the director would have to let him play the villainous minister and villain.

This is not good, right? The selection of talents is to become an official. Regardless of whether you are a good official or not in the end, you must first have the face of an upright official, so that everyone will believe you and think you Can make decisions for the common people.You can't be seen by others as a bad person, a corrupt official or a treacherous minister...

As expected, Zhan Xitong paid a heavy price for this in the same year.His knowledge was so good that his competitors were convinced, but he was placed No.10 by His Majesty the Emperor.He works diligently and bears no complaints, but when an accident occurs, Shangfeng is the first to think whether he is haunted, and it is his turn to be promoted and raise salary, but Shangfeng will never think of him.It's been so many years, it's not as good as he was promoted to the second and third ranks in the same year, but last year he was promoted to the fourth rank of the Guozijian Jijiu only after relying on his connections to go through the back door.What made Zhan Xitong even more speechless was that other people's fathers wanted their sons to look like him, but as for him, every time he was outside the delivery room, he kept praying that he would not be like him...

Zhan Xitong was very happy when he received Lin Ruhai's invitation. He still likes Lin Ruhai a lot.Although he seriously doubted that Lin Ruhai was able to stand out from the ten of them to be Tanhua Lang back then because of his good looks.

If you want to say why Zhan Xitong has a special liking for Lin Ruhai, you have to go back to a few years ago, that is, five years ago and before that, Lin Ruhai was his motivation and encouragement during the low tide.Because although Lin Ruhai has a good family background, good literary talent, good looks, and married a wife who is rich, talented and beautiful, but he has no son.

A big man, no matter how much he has achieved outside, having a son and not having a son are definitely two different concepts, because a man without a son will always make people feel inferior.Therefore, whenever Zhan Xitong was treated differently, he used Lin Ruhai to comfort and motivate himself: Lin Ruhai, who has everything, does not have a son. If you think about it, these things are nothing. What's next...

They didn't know that Lin Ruhai, who was brought to chat with her in the same year, was still sincerely caring for her seriously ill mother in the same year.Zhan Xitong's old mother, Mrs. Zeng, was moved: "This child is really kind-hearted. I am in such a miserable situation. She still cares about me as an old man. It's really embarrassing for this good boy."So Mrs. Zeng took Lin Ruhai's hand, and explained earnestly, "My good boy, I know you are suffering in your heart, but you have to be careful, this is fate." Lin Ruhai...

It is said that because Lin Ruhai was an inspirational role model in the same year, Zhan Xitong always comforted himself, and then used Lin Ruhai as a classic example to comfort his worried mother.Mrs. Zeng is a good mother who loves her son dearly, so although she feels sorry for Lin Ruhai's tragic experience, she is still a little fortunate that there is someone worse than her son by her side, who can give her son some psychological comfort and balance some.Otherwise, Mrs. Zeng would have to worry that her son, who was often tortured cruelly by the cold reality, would be blackened and become a treacherous courtier.Quotations from Mrs. Zeng: Amitabha, may the Buddha bless you Lin Ruhai...

Zhan Xitong was very embarrassed, his face turned red with embarrassment, and he evasively dared not look at Lin Ruhai who came to ask for a solution.Oops, inspirational role models are so useful, I forgot to tell my mother that she gave birth to a son five years ago...

Lin Ruhai had never seen Zhan Tongnian like this before.In his impression, no matter how unfairly Zhan Xitong was treated, no matter how embarrassing the situation he faced, he was always calm, imposing and fearless.Sometimes it was really too much, even Lin Ruhai thought he couldn't bear it, but Zhan Xitong survived it.For this reason, Lin Ruhai admired his courage and heart from the bottom of his heart.

But, now, what is the situation?Neither Zhan Xi nor your unmistakable guilty expression can make me think, did you really do something that I'm sorry for?

The author has something to say: Have netizens dived into the deep sea recently?If it weren't for the fact that the points are still increasing, I doubt that my article will be read by almost no one...

Come out guys, give me some responses...

In this chapter, I have written Lin Ruhai full of love...
