Red Mansion Kua Kua Group

Daiyu also wondered a little bit in her heart, so before Lin Ruhai opened her mouth, she asked, "What did the second elder of the Bai family say to daddy?"

Lin Ruhai didn't answer, but just picked up a sapphire seal from the desk and handed it to Daiyu.

Daiyu took it in surprise, it was father's favorite thing, usually the servant who cleaned the study would not let it be wiped, and he often played with it on the desk, why did he suddenly give it to herself today?

The sapphire seal is small and delicate, the surface of the seal is uneven enough to reach Daiyu's fingers, she picks it up and carefully identifies it, it is a three-character seal that is no longer popular nowadays, and only after careful identification can she see three words: I am not envious of immortals.

With a bang, thoughts in Daiyu's mind were churning, her lips moved slightly, but she didn't say anything.

Lin Ruhai thought for a while before speaking: "This is when my wife first entered the Lin family." He stared out of the window, his eyes were out of focus in the endless void, as if seeing the past days again, he couldn't help but smile,

"She is a lady of a great family. She is good at both poetry and painting, but she is good at seal carving. After she gets married, she spends her days tinkering in the study with a carving knife."

Daiyu also laughed, it turned out that her mother still has such a hobby.It's funny to think about it, for such a well-behaved gentleman like my father married a mother who is lively and eccentric by nature, I'm afraid that after marriage, there will be a time to raise eyebrows.

Lin Ruhai also seemed to be immersed in the past, and it took him a while to withdraw his thoughts: "Before she died, your mother tried hard to persuade me to continue the strings. I didn't agree at the time, but now that you are growing up day by day, firstly, it is convenient for a housewife to find out the truth; A mother's daughter will always be criticized and neglected."

"Furthermore, Mrs. Bai is critically ill, and she always wants Mr. Bai to have someone to support her. Therefore, in the Bai mansion, I made an agreement with Mr. Bai to allow her to be the head wife of the Lin family. Although they are not husband and wife, they have The name of husband and wife, so that it can fulfill the old lady's wish, and it can be done smoothly without delaying your important affairs."

Daiyu's eyes widened: "Then Mr. Bai...is she willing?"

There was admiration in Lin Ruhai's eyes: "Mr. Bai said that she had no hope of getting married since the time she and her husband's family quarreled, and now she just wants her old mother to be safe. If she gets married, she will be the head of the house and take care of her." Good luck to the Lin family."

This is indeed like what Mr. Bai can say.

Daiyu did the math again, her mother had been away for four years, during this period her father rejected all matchmakers, and the dignified inspector of salt and censor didn't even have a wife. Some doubts.

So she didn't make a big fuss, but asked: "

In this way, what if Dad or Mr. Bai pleases others in the future? "

Lin Ruhai smiled when he heard the words: "My heart feels haggard, and Mr. Bai must have felt the same way. We made an appointment at Bai's house. If one party has other intentions, the other party can just make up and leave."

Daiyu thought about it, and then said, "I'm afraid I've wronged my father."

Lin Ruhai sighed: "It's because I didn't wait for your mother all the time. You are too sensible. Ordinary children will always have some resentment, but you only think about your father."

Daiyu raised her head: "Father thinks it's okay. Mr. Bai is upright, even if he is really my stepmother, he can't treat me slowly, let alone just acting?"

Lin Ruhai said again: "You and Mr. Bai have always been close, so there must be no complaints in your heart. But don't be angry with the two elders of the Bai family. All dynasties and dynasties have paid attention to posthumous sacrifices, and the second elders of the Bai family really couldn't do it, so they made such a bad plan. I am a teacher every day and a father for life, although I value the kindness of the teacher's teaching, but this move is not forced by the teacher. You must not complain to the two elders."

Daiyu said solemnly: "My old man and the old man, my father loves me, and the second elder of the Bai family loves Mr. Bai. Presumably all the loving fathers in the world must have the same heart for their children. If I live here together, I am afraid that my father will also sleep at night." I can't sleep day and night thinking about the way out for me."

Lin Ruhai hurriedly said: "There are no taboos! There are no taboos! What nonsense are you talking about? My Yu'er, the marriage will be smooth from now on!"

Daiyu smiled coquettishly.After coming out of Lin Ruhai's room, she began to talk about the marriage proposal.

Mrs. Bai received the Geng Tie from the matchmaker sent by the Lin family, and her health improved a lot.

Daiyu was very busy every day. Although Mr. Bai stated in advance that he would not use the Lin family's dowry for food and clothing, he still had to show Mr. Bai some respect.

Therefore, dispatching media and exchanging Geng posts are all done solemnly.

Daiyu was so busy on this side that she didn't touch the ground, while on the other side of Wang Xifeng's farm in the suburbs of Beijing, a farmer had already offered a pomegranate with autumn dew on it: "This pomegranate is blooming well, and it will be the rabbit in a few days." It’s the festival, and it’s just that the masters set up a plate to make it auspicious.”

In recent days, Yingchun has studied a lot in Zhuangzi, and naturally knows that farmers in central Beijing call the Mid-Autumn Festival Reunion Festival the Rabbit Lord's Festival, and the farmers also offer sacrifices to Rabbit Lord during this time.

So Yingchun smiled and said, "Accept your auspicious words." He also ordered the chess player: "Play chess, reward."

Siqi grabbed a handful of copper coins by himself, and the farmer was so happy that he took the copper coins that he couldn't smile, and said auspicious words without words.

After Yingchun finished her work, she asked Xiuju to meet her sister-in-law with pomegranates in their hands.

Wang Xifeng has a big belly now, and her feet hurt day and night. She is leaning against the big kang by the window, letting Pinger rub her feet, while the elder sister is playing with bamboo dragonflies on the ground.

Seeing Yingchun coming in, Ping'er hastily put down Wang Xifeng's trousers and got up to greet her: "I've seen the second girl."

Wang Xifeng said angrily: "You are so polite, my sister, what's wrong with seeing your feet?"

Yingchun also greeted her with a smile: "Sister-in-law is in better shape now?" Then she called the elder sister over.

The eldest sister was four years old, and she got to know her well, so she came to play with her happily.

Wang Xifeng nodded slowly: "It's better. Last night after eating the jujube cake sent by your brother, I felt a bit of a stomachache. I spent half the night calling for a doctor. It's nothing to worry about."

Ping'er interjected from the side: "Thanks to Miss Lin's help, she sent the female doctor of her family to the Zhuangzi to wait. Otherwise, last night was so dark, where would we go to find a doctor?"

Sister Feng nodded, her eyes were full of gratitude: "Uncle and Sister Lin's kindness to my family is just to build a shrine for them."

Yingchun laughed at the side: "Where did my sister-in-law learn this trick? Only treacherous ministers who were powerful in the previous dynasty let people build a shrine for him."

Wang Xifeng pinched her face with his hands, and said affectionately, "You! You bullied your sister-in-law for not studying."

These days Yingchun stayed at the mansion for a while, which made Wang Xifeng look at Yingchun with admiration.

She didn't like Yingchun to be cowardly, but these days Yingchun temporarily acted as director of Zhuangzi on her behalf, doing things in an orderly manner without panic and chaos. Submissive post.

Wang Xifeng boasted to Ping'er in private: "Who would have thought that the second girl in our family is capable! I used to think that those who do things aggressively are talents, but now I see that this silent person also has the air of a general."

That's why Wang Xifeng and Yingchun were so eager to fall together at this time.Although Yingchun has a dull temper, she knows what is good and what is bad. Seeing that Wang Xifeng has a big belly, she reminds her everywhere and teaches her how to behave, so she is very grateful to her.

The sister-in-law was harmonious, Yingchun took over Ping'er, rubbed Wang Xifeng's swollen calf, and asked distressedly: "Is it time? When will brother come back?"

Wang Xifeng pursed her lips and smiled: "There are still a few days left. I didn't want your brother to come back so early, but he was worried about it and asked the boy to tell me that he would be home tonight and take a few days off to accompany me to give birth."

Immediately, Yingchun hurriedly ordered Lianhua'er: "Go let the kitchen cook hot water, and then find a few male servants to meet the second master at the intersection."

Wang Xifeng was satisfied: "Now she acts like a young lady."

Yingchun pursed her lips and smiled: "Sister-in-law, don't laugh at me," and asked Xiuju to take out the pomegranate, "Let's take a look, sister-in-law, the farmer below sent it. I don't know if the people who gave birth can eat this, so I put it on the pomegranate." Keep a good sign."

Seeing the pomegranate, Wang Xifeng was naturally happy, it was a good omen, she moved forward a bit, wanting to put Ping'er up.

But during this movement, she suddenly felt a heat flow between her legs, and she was taken aback.

Seeing that Wang Xifeng was not moving, Ping'er hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with Second Mistress?"

Wang Xifeng waved her hands, not daring to move her body any further: "I seem to be about to give birth..."

ah?This is about to give birth?

The whole room was full of unborn children, and they all froze suddenly. The eldest sister was young, and seeing her mother's expression was not right, she burst into tears with a "wow".

It's better for Yingchun to calm down first.

She first said to Si Qi: "Go to the front yard and invite those stable women and female doctors to come over! Just say that Madam is about to give birth!"

He also instructed Xiuju: "Stop Lianhuaer, tell the kitchen to cook a bowl of chicken noodle soup for Madam first, and then boil a lot of hot water!"

Yingchun went to greet Ping'er again: "Come on, sister Ping, let's move our sister-in-law to the big kang." Now it's a bit late to go to the big kang outside, so she simply gave birth on the big kang outside.

Seeing that Wang Xifeng was lying down firmly, Yingchun felt relieved, and only then was she able to think about other things.

She picked up the eldest sister and coaxed her: "Your mother is going to give birth to a younger brother, it's not that she is sick, so don't cry." She greeted the eldest sister's nurse: "Put the eldest sister down and coax her well."

Another repeated order to Wang Xifeng's servant girl:

"Pull down the bamboo curtain under the porch, and set up a brazier under the eaves."

"Pass up the windows quickly, and plug the seams of the windows tightly with muslin strips, so that no cold wind can get in."

Not long after, the stable women came in and checked carefully. It turned out that Sister Feng's water broke just now, and now she is about to give birth in an instant.

A cook had served chicken noodle soup earlier, Wang Xifeng thought it was greasy and didn't want to move, so Yingchun hurriedly stepped forward to coax her: "Sister-in-law, this is what Mrs. Wen told you. If you are full, you will have the strength to give birth. Just bear with it."

Wang Xifeng also had high hopes for this baby, so she obediently ate the noodles.

Yingchun asked Mrs. Wen again, and it was okay to move at this time, so she asked a few women with big arms and thick waists to carry Wang Xifeng into the inner room together.

After being busy for a while, Yingchun felt that she was so panicked that her palms were sweating, and she hurriedly sent the servant: "Go to the direction of the capital to find the second master. They said that they are coming back tonight, and I am afraid that they will be on the way now." gone."
