[Red Chamber] Jia Lian has an ancestor system

The next day, Jia Lian went to the ancestral hall early in the morning.He first added lamp oil, lit incense, burned paper money, and after finishing these things, he took a broom made of reeds and cleaned the inside and outside.

Although these are indeed small things, it is really not easy for him, a young man who has been in a rich and prosperous town for a long time.If he hadn't practiced swords before, he would also have calluses in his hands, and his palms would definitely be broken.

While sweeping the courtyard, Jia Rong came in, called her second uncle and leaned against the door, sneaking around, as if she had something to say.

Jia Lian saw that he was hesitant to speak, and reprimanded him, "Speak quickly if you have anything to say, and don't delay my work."

Jia Rong didn't dare to talk about it in the ancestral hall, and only waited for Jia Lian to finish cleaning before talking outside about the night before the Mid-Autumn Festival. Because of filial piety, the mansion celebrated the festival in Conglvtang, Huifang Garden in advance, and it seemed that they heard long sighs in the ancestral hall. thing.

Jia Lian's heart skipped a beat, and then he realized that the ancestor was showing spirits at that time, but everyone didn't take it seriously.

"But did you hear me wrong?"

"I heard it really, there were not only sighs, but also the sound of the fan opening and closing, which made everyone's hairs stand on end." Jia Rong was still a little terrified when she said it now, "Second Uncle, you are now Cleaning, and burning incense, but also encountered such weird things?"

Jia Lian glanced at him with mixed feelings, and nodded in order not to explain further.

"That's fine, please rest assured."

But Jia Lian said: "What's the use of peace of mind alone, you and your father should come together to burn incense and worship."

Jia Rong smiled and said, "As you know, my father doesn't fear these things. Since you are interested, Second Uncle, you might as well respect them for us."

Jia Lian was speechless, and retorted: "One day I will become a memorial tablet, and I hope that my descendants will respect me."

Jia Rong was at a loss for words for a while, unable to utter a word for a long time, just watched the second uncle walk away.

For seven days in a row, Jia Lian worked diligently on the affairs of the ancestral hall and did not dare to neglect.

Seeing that he refused to reveal what happened to her at all, Sister Feng was a little puzzled and a little restless.

Ping'er comforted: "Grandma, why worry, what the second master did is nothing but harmless."

No, no, as the person next to her pillow, Sister Feng obviously felt that Second Master Lian had changed a lot since he woke up that day.

On the seventh day, after Jia Lian finished cleaning and was about to leave the ancestral hall, the system spoke.

"I see that you are still a little sincere, so I will give you some clues."

Jia Lian stared blankly at the interface in front of him, only to see the display on the screen:

[As soon as the task is completed, the rewards are being distributed...]

Jia Lian was curious, what kind of clue would it be, how would it be displayed, would it be written directly on the screen?

But in the courtyard, two green pines and cypresses planted on the left and right suddenly shook at the same time.

At first Jia Lian thought it was the autumn wind blowing, but when he looked back, the candles in the room hadn't moved, but the two pines and cypresses in front of the hall were shaking desperately.

Looking again, I saw [reward distribution complete] displayed on the screen.

Jia Lian was full of doubts and asked, "Ancestor, what clue is this? Can you explain it more clearly?"

The system did not respond to him, but remained silent, and even the interface disappeared.No matter how Jia Lian called, he just answered.

Jia Lian calmed down for a while. Last time, the system said to give a task to see whether he was sincere or not. If he wanted to come up with this clue, he had to figure it out based on the omens.

But what does the wind blowing the trees mean?

Jia Lian thought all the way for a long time but couldn't figure out what was going on and what this reminder meant.

Until going to bed at night, lying on the bed and thinking slowly.The vision that appeared at that time was that two trees were shaking on the left and the right, and the left and right were wood, and together they formed the character Lin. Could it be that this clue has something to do with the Lin family?Sister Lin?Wait a minute, the trees are pines and cypresses...Linsong!

The more Jia Lian thought about it, the more he felt that it was Lin Song.

Lin Song was the big housekeeper of the Lin family. When Uncle Lin passed away that year, Jia Lian helped manage the family property, and Lin Song was the person who had the most contacts.

The Lin family looks poor, and there is not much money on the surface, but several generations of nobles, a scholarly family, and a collection of books, calligraphy, paintings and antique fields are not comparable to the nouveau riche.

Lin Song is proficient in housekeeping and is also loyal to his master. For the family property left by the master, he strives to have account details for every entry and exit.

At that time, the Lin family's house in Yangzhou had been sold, and the two concubines, the steward, servants, and maids all moved to the Lin family's old house in Gusu.

Most of the family property that was counted and discounted to Lin Daiyu was brought into Jia's mansion with Jia Lian, some of which were managed by the old lady, and some of which were used by Sister Lin herself.Because Lin Song kept a close eye on Jia Lian, Jia Lian was only able to do something when he was on the way back to Beijing.He did swallow some money, but not much.

Some time ago, finances were in short supply, and Jia Lian also wanted to have such a good opportunity to make a fortune again, but he could only think about it.

In recent years, Lin Song only sent letters to greet Jia Lian on behalf of the mansion during festivals, and he had no friendship with Jia Lian.Now the ancestor system reminds himself to find Lin Song... What will happen?

Anyway, Jia Lian decided to go to Suzhou to find out.

When he went to bid farewell to the old lady, it was inconvenient for Jia Lian to say that he was going to Gusu, so he lied and said to Jia's mother: "The grandson will go to clean the ancestral hall. Because the ancestor entrusted his dream, let the grandson see two places. The ancestral hall. Grandson dare not neglect, now that the ancestral hall here has been cleaned, we should also go to the Jinling old house to have a look."

Mother Jia has always been in awe of her ancestors, not only believed his words, but also praised him greatly.

"It's rare for you to have such filial piety. How can there be any reason why x won't let you go."

Jia Lian paid homage to Jia Mu and was about to go back to the hospital when she heard a "ding", and the system began to issue tasks again.

"Please receive task two."

Jia Lian saw the display on the interface——

[Task [-]: Carry the memorial tablet and pray three times a day. 】

Specific content: When departing to other places, carry the ancestral tablet and a small incense burner, burn three sticks of incense and kowtow three times a day.

Mission reward: a clue.

"Another clue..." Jia Lian thought silently, "But judging from this, my guess should be correct, otherwise it would be impossible to trigger the second mission."

It is not difficult to bring a memorial tablet and incense burner of Jia's ancestors, just do it.Jia Lian ordered his servants to do these things well, bid farewell to Sister Feng and others, took Xing'er, and rode a fast horse to the south.

Jin Yuanyang's parents were watching the house in Jinling's old house. After Jia Lian arrived, Yuanyang's father, Jin Cai, took Jia Lian to look around.There is no big problem with the house. There is no master to live in, so naturally there is no human relationship. Anyway, it is just a few of their servants to take care of it, and there is not much work.

Jia Lian burned incense in the ancestral hall, worshiped, and went to Gusu the next day.

Lin Song welcomed Lian Erye, whom he hadn't seen for several years, into Lin's mansion.

Jia Lian said, "I'm going back to Jinling this time to do some business. By the way, I was entrusted by Sister Lin to come and check on the situation in Lin's mansion."

Lin Song happily asked, "Is our girl all right?"

Jia Lian was inconvenient to say, so she replied, "Everything is fine."

Lin Song sighed, and said: "My girl, she learned to take medicine before she learned how to eat, and her parents left early. If it weren't for the love of my grandparents, it's really pitiful..."

Jia Lian changed the topic and asked, "Don't bother to ask the master, the master is also thinking about you. These years, are your lives going well?"

Lin Songdao: "It doesn't matter whether it's good or bad, relying on some property left by the masters, collecting rent, let's make do with it."

Now there is only one Aunt Liu left in the Lin family, and Lin Song specially called her over to meet Jia Lian.

Aunt Liu brought a plate of crabs to the table, and saluted again, her eyes fluttered, and Jia Lian's heart skipped a beat.

Jia Lian also met this Aunt Liu in Yangzhou back then, but she didn't have any special impression.When I saw her today, probably because Aunt Liu had been well maintained in the past two years, Jia Lian felt that she faintly revealed the demeanor of Second Sister You.

As a result, just as soon as I had such an idea, I heard the system scold: "You salty bastard, you have been stained with a lot of fishy smells over the years, and now you have experienced the decline of your family, personal life and death, why don't you have a long memory? At this stage of the field, are you still thinking about other women's women?"

Jia Lian talked to the system with his mind depressedly: "I just suddenly remembered Second Sister You, that's all, I didn't think too much about that."

The system snorted: "I don't know what's going on in your mind, you brat?"

Jia Lian was so angry that he took a sip of his wine.

Standing by the side, Lin Song poured Jia Lian a glass of Shaoxing rice wine, and said, "This is the crab from Yangcheng Lake, and it is the fattest to eat now."

Jia Lian said: "What's so interesting about drinking alone? You can sit down and drink together. Although I am a guest, I am an old acquaintance with you, so don't hold back."

Lin Song asked someone to move a lower table, and then sat aside, chatting with Jia Lian while drinking.

After drinking for three rounds, Lin Song became a little drunk, and with the help of wine, he talked more.

He said: "The villain's father is a slave of the Lin family, and even his surname was changed to Lin. The little one can't do other things except learn to do housework for the master since he was a child. Now the master has been gone for a few years. His only The thought of her is our girl."

Jia Lian said: "Don't worry, Sister Lin is doing very well in our house. The old lady loves her more than the girls in the house."

Lin Song raised his head and drank a glass of wine, and continued: "When the master was leaving, he asked the girl to follow your old lady. In the future, the important things in the girl's life will naturally be decided by the old lady."

Jia Lian nodded and said, "Naturally, my uncle also told me the same way before he died."

"Hey—" Lin Song sighed again.

Jia Lian asked inexplicably, "Why is Steward Lin so melancholy today? After sitting down for a quarter of an hour, he sighed three or four times? If there is something bothering you, why don't you tell me, maybe I can help you."

"Although there are no close relatives in the Lin family, there are still a few distant relatives. Among them is Lin Hong. I wonder if Second Master Lian has any impression?"

"Lin Hong?" Jia Lian thought for a while, "Back when I was taking care of my aunt's funeral, there was a young man who was more outstanding and helped to take care of it. The butler was talking about this Lin Hong?"

Lin Song nodded and said, "It's him. Although he is a remote relative, he is intelligent by nature and can read a few words. Our master has always let him do errands under his staff."

"After the master left, because of his familiarity with the business, he was favored by the successor Xunyan Yushi, and he continued to keep him on business. Now he has bought a house in the capital, and his wife and children are all settled in the capital."

Jia Lian was thinking, Zhang Shaochang is the current inspector of the Huaihe River and Huaihe River, and he belongs to the faction of the fourth prince...

"Since he is in the capital, why doesn't he come to me?"

"He mentioned it when he came to the mansion not long ago, he only said that he is small and humble, and he is not familiar with the people in Jia's mansion. Although he is thinking about the old man's orphan, it is not easy to come to the door abruptly."

"When he came, he also wanted to ask if our girl was betrothed to someone else. He said that there is an excellent marriage. If it can be done, it will be able to honor the ancestors."

"I said don't mention honoring the ancestors, not honoring the ancestors. The Lin family is already extinct. What's the use of honoring the ancestors? The master only hopes that the girl can live a safe and happy life. What's more, the girl is with her grandmother. , since grandma is the one to make the decision.”

Jia Lian asked, "Then what did he say?"

"He didn't say anything, only that it was true."

From these words, Jia Lian deduced that the marriage he was looking for must be extraordinary.Daiyu was originally from a noble family, if she married into an ordinary official family, she would not be called Guangzong Yaozu, and only like Yuan Chun in the mansion could be called Guangzong Yaozu.

Could it be...
