The whole heaven is watching Lao Tzu fall in love [Red Mansion]

After a while, Lin Ruhai came to his senses, and said in disbelief, "Ask to marry a little girl? But Ling He..."

"Students have heard about the talent of the daughter of your mansion," Liu Linghe smiled lightly, "I have already discussed it with the parents in the mansion. But I think, before the parents come to propose marriage, it is better to talk to the teacher first."

After he saved Lin Ruhai's life, he joined Lin Ruhai's sect, so he deserved to be called a teacher.Lin Ruhai looked at him, his lips twitched for a while, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

If you say you are not satisfied, it is definitely a lie.Liu Linghe's character, appearance, and family background are all worthy of Daiyu.Coupled with the fact that he had saved his life and Daiyu's life, this kindness was beyond heaven, Lin Ruhai was naturally 1 satisfied.

only......

He stroked his beard calmly, and looked at the young man in blue from head to toe.

In this way, why do you always feel that this child seemed to have ulterior motives before?

Liu Linghe stood with a smile and let him look at him, his eyes were as calm as water, gentle and polite.Lin Ruhai looked around, but didn't see anything unsatisfactory.Only then did he remember that the person in front of him was a proud student he had trained, so how could he see anything wrong?So I had no choice but to say: "It's not right for you to say this, and please invite Master Liu to discuss it with me in detail."

Liu Linghe responded, and sure enough, he invited his father.The two reconciled as soon as they talked, and their attitude was extremely sincere. Lin Ruhai's heart was full of acid, so he still had to agree first.

It just so happened that Lin Mo's academy was on vacation for the past few days, so he took this opportunity to come home.The Lin family didn't have a woman from the back house to take care of these many things, so Lin Ruhai called Lin Mo to the study to discuss.The father and son chatted for a long time, and they both felt that Liu Linghe was really a rare man in the world, who could match Daiyu in every way.The male college should be married and the female college should be married, but it is not allowed to stay, so the two families made an agreement on this.It's just because Daiyu hasn't reached the age of Ji now, so she hasn't made a formal decision.

Now that Liu Linghe obtained the letter of approval, most of the big stones in his heart were put down, and since then he began to concentrate on improving Daiyu's favorability with one heart and one mind.Instead, the father-in-law who had been pleasing in every possible way before was put aside for the time being.

From time to time, he would send a bunch of things to the Lin Mansion in the name of giving homework; if it was good to send off, the gifts would be exquisite playthings that only girls in boudoirs loved, and even the exquisite emerald hairpins that he made , the water head and color are all of the best quality, big and clear emeralds and red sapphires, etc., all collected in a box full.There are also rare flowers and plants that are rare in the capital, which are elegantly pruned, and they are brought into the house in pots, which makes Lin Ruhai feel a headache.There was no way, so I had to pack all these things and send them to Daiyu's room.

In this way, Daiyu couldn't help feeling a little surprised.When I greeted Lin Ruhai today, Yin asked, "Father, why did you send so many things to your daughter's house these days?"

Lin Ruhai hadn't answered yet, but Lin Mo's hands paused, and then he chuckled and said, "I wonder if my sister likes it?"

Daiyu didn't understand what it meant, and thought Lin Mo brought it back to her, so she nodded and said: "It's all based on my preferences, I like it very much. The small bonsai made of stone in the middle, and the pair of white silk Mo Hua's screen has already been placed on the desk, so it's hard for Mo'er to remember me."

"I don't dare to take credit for this," Lin Mo said with a smile, and lazily turned another page of the book with his fingers, "Sister, you should know, I didn't give these to you, but brother-in-law Lin gave them to you."

"Mo'er," Lin Ruhai's complexion suddenly darkened, "Stop talking nonsense."

"It's nonsense," Lin Mohun said indifferently, "This is my sister's lifelong event. Does father want to hide it from my sister until the marriage fails? Before the formal decision is made at this time, if my sister doesn't want to, we will also Well, there’s another way to say it.”

Lin Ruhai thought this was not very polite, but then he thought about it, his wife died young, and he only had a son and a daughter under his knees, so naturally these two children should be the most important.Etiquette and other matters, how can it match Daiyu's own wishes?So he pondered for a moment, then dismissed all the servants in the house, and told her about Liu Linghe in detail.

After listening to a few words just now, Daiyu was already blushing, and wanted to run away, but Lin Mo held her tightly.He could only cover his face and listen to the two of them talk about the current situation of the Liu family before asking her: "What's your heart?"

Daiyu was forced to be helpless by the two of them, so she had no choice but to say softly: "Father thinks it's good, so it must be good."

After all, he ran away.Panting and sweating slightly, he ran all the way until he stopped in the garden.

Both Shi Qing and Hua Yi were waiting outside the door just now, when they saw the young lady came out, they hurriedly followed, and at this moment they both covered their mouths and snickered.Daiyu, who was smiling straight away, felt very uncomfortable, spat at them and said, "You two, what are you laughing at?"

"I didn't laugh at anything," Shi Qing pursed her lips and said, "It's just that Mr. Liu saved you from a frightened horse back then. Now it seems that there is really a lot of fate." The joking Daiyu's face was on fire, and she chased them for a while, and then she didn't mention it anymore.

It's just that in the dead of night, Daiyu couldn't find peace in her heart.For a while I thought of the clear and clear voice of the young man outside the car when the horse was startled that day, and for a while I thought of what my father said today, my heart was restless and shy, and I kept tossing and turning in the middle of the night without falling asleep.While tossing and turning, she suddenly felt that the water vapor in the room seemed to be thicker, with a faint reassuring smell, which made her fall into a deep sleep without knowing it, and had a good night's sleep.

Two flowers bloom, each representing a branch.On this side, Liu Linghe was busy improving his wife's favorability, while on the other side, Mrs. Zhang welcomed a familiar guest.

The guest's complexion was as pale as snow, and she held a cup of hot tea brought by the servant girl behind her. Curly white mist came out of the teacup, covering her worry-filled eyebrows and eyes.

"Why is your face so ugly?" The more Zhang looked at her, the more worried she became, and seeing that she was only wearing a thin lotus-blue double-breasted jacket, and underneath was a pan brocade seven-color cotton skirt, all half new and not old, she couldn't help saying, "So Why did you come out on a snowy day like this, in all your old clothes, without even a cloak?"

"I don't even have the time to pay attention to this," the woman smiled wryly, shaking her head slowly, "Now, I don't know what I am anymore."

Mrs. Zhang also felt sad seeing her like this.She put her hand on the woman's, and softly persuaded: "This life is made by human beings, and it may not be so desperate..."

"It's not despair," the woman murmured, "I'm just discouraged."

"Yanran..." Mrs. Zhang called her boudoir's name, but for a moment she didn't know what to say, so she held her hand tightly.

"He has been fighting on the front line all these years," Mrs. Gu said indifferently, her eyes were blank, and she didn't know where she was looking. Take care of the housework. But in the end, it turns out that the 19 years of filial piety are nothing."

"No child, no child... When the old lady frowned and accused me, I really don't know what else I can say. Jiang Yun went to guard the frontier when he was newly married, for 19 years , teach me how to have children?"

Zhang's heart was tightly pulled into a ball.She still remembered that a few months ago, when Mrs. Gu braved the hot weather to find her to borrow medicine, she had admired her for taking good care of her mother-in-law.But the dedication of the past ten years, after all, is not worth the crime of childlessness.

She also knew that Yan Ran was 36 years old now, and it would be difficult for her to conceive, and even if she did, she might not have a smooth pregnancy.Just looking at the pale and tired face in front of her, she couldn't say anything else, just because she was childless, which is the most unacceptable sin of a woman in the world.

However, she still held a trace of fantasy in her heart.Thinking that General Gu has such deep affection for his wife, maybe he doesn't care so much about his children, so he deserves his deep affection back then.Therefore, she asked softly, "What did General Gu say?"

"How else can I say it?" Mrs. Gu slowly shook her head, "He said, it wasn't my fault. But now, he doesn't even have a child under his knees. How can the old lady see him like this and say it's me? I'm afraid it's not easy to have children, but it's better to have a few more concubines while I'm not very old."

After all, she was proud, so she never explained to Zhang how desolate she was at that time.Standing outside the window, listening to the mother-in-law babbling that a daughter-in-law is useless, she can't even bloom, and she wants her husband to hurry up and succeed.

As for her husband, whom she has never forgotten for a moment in the past ten years, he strongly opposed it at first, saying that he had made a promise to be a couple for a lifetime.But later, when he saw the gray-haired old mother in tears, crying and lamenting that there was no one behind him, he stopped talking.

Mrs. Gu, who was outside the window, was completely chilled at that moment.

A month later, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old innocent girl entered the mansion. She was as light as a flower and had a youthful and lively appearance that Mrs. Gu could never achieve again.She peeked at General Gu one by one, obviously she had long been in love with this well-known infatuated general, if she accidentally met his eyes, she would blush with embarrassment.

Mrs. Gu stood aside silently, listening to Gu's mother holding her hand and saying in detail: "You are a good boy, but Jiang Yun cannot have children. I know you have served me for so many years, and you won't take it for childlessness." Suspend you from the house for the crime, and when the child is born, it will be raised under your name, and it will be regarded as Jiang Yun's son."

At that moment, Mrs. Gu was clearly standing in this room, but she could only stare blankly at Gu's mother's lips that kept moving.Her ears were buzzing, and she couldn't hear a sound. From the corner of her eyes, she could clearly see that her husband looked at the lively appearance of the girl, and slightly raised his lips and smiled.

The other party was the concubine's daughter of a seventh-rank official, with good character and good looks, so she was accepted as the second wife, which was not comparable to ordinary concubines.On that day, there were lanterns and colorful decorations in the mansion, a banquet was held, and people were married in in a serious manner.And Mrs. Gu didn't say a word, she just locked herself in the room silently for a day.

In the evening, the bridegroom with a spring face came in first, looked at her yellow face with no makeup on, and sighed softly.

He sat next to her and said in a low voice, "Yanran, don't blame me."

How can I blame you...

Mrs. Gu slowly shook her head. She is indeed childless. No matter what the reason is, this is already one of the seven crimes in the eyes of the world. It is a heinous crime that cannot be tolerated.She knew, so she didn't say anything.

But the sourness in her heart was so overwhelming that she looked at the somewhat unfamiliar face in front of her, which had sworn to each other, and wanted to vomit for a moment.

"Don't worry," General Gu held her hand, "No matter what others do, they can't compare to you. Our husband and wife have been friends since we were young. Even if Qing Ling and I have a child, it will be your child. I will be filial to you."

"It turns out that her name is Qing Ling."

After a while, the person with his head down suddenly said something, causing General Gu to look at her suspiciously: "What did you just say?"

Before he had time to ask any more questions, there were noisy voices in the courtyard, and someone vaguely called the groom's name.General Gu hurriedly responded, and ordered the servants in the room to take care of his wife, and then walked out quickly.

No snow today, cold night, light wind.

Separated by a wall, on one side was the sound of playfulness and laughter, and even the maids looked out one after another, sighing that this was such a lively scene that hadn’t been seen in more than ten years; on the other side, the woman sitting alone under the lamp slowly straightened her back, holding her hand The exquisite silver scissors cut the lantern twice.

She pursed her lips tightly and stubbornly did not say a word.
