Chapter 28 Detained and Solitary

When mentioning my aunt, both father and daughter were very emotional. Now my aunt is being sent to Zhuangzi in the countryside of Suzhou. It is said that she eats vegetarian food, prays to Buddha, and stays away from home. Of course, this is also due to the guards.

No one would believe how she acted like she was regretful now.

The housekeeper of her hometown specially sent a few women with big arms and thick waists to watch her day and night, and only briefly opened the small courtyard door of her yard when delivering meals.

Of course, she was locked inside the house when the courtyard door was briefly opened.

It's not really sad, how many women in the backyard have spent a lonely life like this without leaving the door.

Qingwen was also terrified when she heard this. Speaking of this auntie, if she hadn't been a demon, the life she lived in the Lin family would have been the dream life of countless concubines: You see, the mistress passed away, leaving only one daughter, It just so happens that you are the housemaid's accompanying maid, and your love is extraordinary.

The master will treat you as a concubine with extra respect in the face of the headed wife. In fact, my aunt has indeed obtained the right to be the housekeeper of the Lin family.

Lin Ruhai didn't plan to renew her marriage, she said it was a concubine's room, but in fact she was as honorable as a headed wife, why did the wives and grandmas in Yangzhou mansion get so few posts when they got together?And Lin Ruhai's official position is there, even if he relies on his status to not associate with her concubine, at least he doesn't dare to embarrass her publicly.

It can be said that whether it is in the back room or in foreign affairs, it has absolute advantages.

Next, the smart concubine can plan his own life: if he has a good relationship with the master, he might be able to give birth to his own flesh and blood, whether it is a man or a woman, at least he will have someone to rely on in his next life.And he holds the inner house of the Lin Mansion, so he doesn't have to worry about the marriage of his children in the future.

If it is kind, it is also a way out to treat the blood left by the old master wholeheartedly. When Daiyu is brought up, Daiyu's nostalgia and nostalgia for her biological mother will naturally be transferred to her. When Daiyu grows up and marries, she will naturally be honored she.

If you think about it ten thousand steps back, even if you can't figure it out, there is still a world for living a foolish life. The Lin family has a wealth of wealth, food and drink. If you are bored, you can hire a theater troupe, organize flower parties, post posts, and visit gardens outside. There are countless things to do. It's a way to pass the time, why wait for the good days to go through this muddy water?

Anyway, Qingwen couldn't figure out the brain circuit of this auntie, and she regretted that she didn't study "Criminal Psychology" carefully before time travel.Maybe some people are born with anti-social personality, which is different from what we ordinary people think.

She was pondering about her aunt's criminal mentality there, and she didn't even notice that Daiyu and Lin Ruhai entered the inner study.

Daiyu had something to say this time, she asked Lin Ruhai: "Father, speaking of my aunt being imprisoned in her hometown in Suzhou, my son just wanted to ask, how are the ancestral tombs of the Lin family worshiped?"

Lin Ruhai pondered for a while: "Of course the old servants of the Lin family will take care of it."

"Where does the money and food used for the sacrifice come from?"

Lin Ruhai was at a loss. How could he remember such trivial matters? After a pause, he replied: "It should be the government's money and food expenses, and it must be the same as other expenses."

This is the idea that Daiyu has been brewing for a long time, and it is also the idea that she has had since she read that book.

Jia's mansion has such hidden dangers, so Lin's mansion should not be prepared.

"Oh?" Lin Ruhai was rather curious.

Daiyu said: "I want to come here, although the family does not have to worry about food and clothing now, it will not be short of money and food for sacrificing ancestors in four seasons, but if one day..."

What she said one day was that if one day the family fell into ruin, she was quite taboo, so she didn't point it out. Lin Ruhai naturally understood, and he quickly thought of the reason: "The court ransacked the house, most likely it would not destroy people's ancestral graves, and it would not The clan land was confiscated, so this is an opportunity to take advantage of."

"That's exactly what my daughter meant. The family bought more farms, houses and land near the ancestral tombs, and said to the outside world that these are our Lin family's sacrificial fields."

"Furthermore, my Lin family is weak, and my father is not very close to the Lin family in Suzhou. Each house takes turns to be in charge of the annual mu of land, money and grain, and sacrifice supplies. In this way, each house can benefit, and there is less need for cliques and private interests.”

This idea is good, but Lin Ruhai frowned slightly: "The Lin family clan..."

But this is what Daiyu doesn't know. The Lin family has always been small in population, so they have been coveted by the Lin family. I don't know how many dirty things have happened in the past. Therefore, the relationship between the Lin family and the clan has always been weak, but they maintain the appearance. It's just peace.

Daiyu looked at Lin Ruhai's embarrassment, and guessing at 01:30, she smiled and said, "Didn't daddy want to make friends with the clan? The grievances accumulated over the years are always from the past generations. Dad has a high position and authority, and he condescends to them in the clan." Naturally I am also happy, I heard a saying on the boat: After all, I can’t write two characters of Lin in one stroke, so why should my father care about the past?”

What he said made Lin Ruhai extremely ashamed. As a father, he wanted his child to plan for himself, which is really dereliction of duty: "Forget it, just like Yu'er said, buy some land and land, and when the year-end sacrifice is held, the housekeeper will go to his hometown and offer it to him. For the clan. I also repair books for the clan elders."

This is the second thing Daiyu said: "Father, I have bought a lot of sacrifice fields, and the income from the production is only used for sacrifices, which is quite a surplus. Why don't our Lin family take this opportunity to open a family school? No matter what the children of the Lin family clan Whether the family is poor or not, they can study and receive education in the Lin family school."

"This is a century-old foundation, and the government dare not merge the sacrificial industry into the government. If something happens to our Lin family in the future, the descendants can go back to their hometown in Suzhou or Sinon, and they can always make a living, but they cannot be elected. , Farming, studying and inheriting the family is also extremely righteous."

What he said made Lin Ruhai very ashamed. The so-called not thinking about the future is not a long-term strategy.Daiyu's plans are extremely thorough.

Daiyu didn't finish her sentence: "Didn't daddy say that the Lin family in Suzhou's hometown is not close to us? Then daddy will go to the family school to have a look on the day of worshiping the ancestors, or ask them to send the articles written by the students. Selecting one or two boys of the Lin family with good character and high aptitude to train them may not only get close to our family, but also revitalize the lineage of the Lin family in Suzhou."

Lin Ruhai was quite appreciative: "That's a good idea! It's just that as a father, you have to focus on your character this time, and you must never look at the wrong person again."

This is about Jia Yucun. Earlier, Lin Ruhai saw that he was very knowledgeable, and taught Daiyu and his dedication in the Lin residence, so he built a ladder for him and sent him to the road to success in Beijing.

It's just that he didn't expect that this person was good at disguising. He pretended to be dignified in Lin's mansion, but he was actually a fool with his mind.

Fortunately, Lin Ruhai visited secretly and quietly found a reason to take down Jia Yucun, otherwise he would have been tricked by him at some point.

One must know that Xiangling's father, Zhen Shiyin, was kind to Jia Yucun.But in order to protect his head and put on the official hat, he didn't care about his old love at all.

One day there can be a benefactor Zhen Shiyin, but tomorrow can there be a benefactor Lin Ruhai?

One of the reasons why Lin Ruhai promoted Jia Yucun was because he was Daiyu's mentor. The smoother his official career, the higher Daiyu's worth.

In the future, when Daiyu's husband-in-law enters the officialdom, he can also be honored as a teacher, which is just an extra help.

It's a pity that this person is ungrateful. If Daiyu encounters difficulties one day, will Jia Yucun also stand by and watch?

It's just that it's not good for him to speak ill of the teacher in front of Daiyu. Of course Daiyu knew why, she laughed secretly in her heart, her father still had the air of a scholar with a headscarf, occasionally being pedantic and amiable.

Lin Ruhai changed the topic somewhat unnaturally: "The Lin family's private school is indeed a good thing. No matter what the people in the family have in mind, they always hope that their children can study well, so they will naturally agree with this matter. Presumably it will not be too much to implement. effort."

He thought of another thing: "If there is a suitable child among them, why not accept it under my knees and be a sacrificial child in the future, would Yu'er be willing?"

Daiyu didn't even want to listen: "Daddy, don't talk about it! Daddy is in his prime, and Yu'er will have younger brothers and sisters in the future."

Lin Ruhai didn't mention it too much, there was still a natural boundary between father and son, it was already extremely difficult for him to talk about these topics with Daiyu, so naturally he didn't mention them too much.

Today, after seeing Daiyu's conversation, he was very insightful. He felt very relieved, and felt that his daughter had grown up, so he discussed some adult topics with Daiyu: "Yu'er, you are in charge of the account at home, and you can make up money by the end of the year." 3 taels of silver?"

Daiyu pinched her fingers obediently: "Now the account can be freed."

Lin Ruhai was taken aback: "Now? Immediately?"

Daiyu nodded: "This is still Qingwen's idea. She said that there is a bank in the house. If someone deliberately plots against them, spreads bad information, and causes people to panic, they all want to run away from our bank and live here. If we don’t have enough money, we might be sold out and close down in no time, which will affect Lin’s other business.”

"In order not to be completely defeated, she designed an account called the deposit reserve, which stipulates that a small amount of money must be reserved in the account for every income of the entire Lin Mansion. This money cannot be used under any circumstances. The rest Only the money can be taken away and then used for business operations or to receive salaries for servants.”

Lin Ruhai was amazed: "This girl is really amazing, she has such a good brain, so many years of bankers were deliberately murdered because they couldn't move so much money to the people who came to the door, and ended up in ruins. She actually understands this key .”

Daiyu also flirted with Yourong: "That's right, that girl is clever. What does Daddy want that money for?"

If Qingwen knew about this compliment, she would definitely think to herself, where, this is all a trivial skill learned from Yang Ma.

Lin Ruhai's face became serious: "Return it to the court."

"What? Our Lin family still owes money to the court?"

The author has something to say: Because of writing a romance, the male lead confessed his love to the female lead with a wisteria cake (don’t make jokes about glutinous rice balls), so he ate wisteria cake today.

For wisteria flowers, the petals are taken and mashed into mud, mixed with glutinous rice flour and heated to condense into a light purple pudding-like cake.

Then take the white jelly, add finely chopped wisteria flowers to it, pour it on the pudding just made, and slice it after it cools down.

feels good.Late spring food.

I ate a lot of spring food this spring: wisteria flowers, bamboo shoots, alfalfa sprouts, thorn sprouts, and peach blossoms. The next time I see you will be next spring.
