Lin Ruhai of the Red Chamber Reborn

Speaking of which, last time the servant waited at the door and said that Jia Min was going to give birth, Lin Ruhai was surprised when he heard the news, and couldn't wait for the driver to open the curtain, so he hurriedly opened it and asked, "It's only September now, how did you give birth?"

After finishing speaking, Lin Ruhai jumped out of the carriage before the servant took out a stool, and rushed to the main courtyard like a gust of wind.

Mingqin hurriedly said to Guzi: "Go to Rongguo Mansion and tell the old lady, I will go in first."

Gu Se understood, and said: "Understood, you go, and persuade the master not to enter the delivery room, so as not to disturb the wife."

At present, men, children, and widows who have not left the cabinet are not allowed to be present. For women who are giving birth, they are all idlers. No matter how anxious Lin Ruhai is, he can only wait outside.

Mingqin scolded with a smile: "What kind of person is the master, if you don't understand these things, why don't you ask me to remind you?"

Guse also smiled, and went to Rongguo Mansion against the wind and snow.

But when Lin Ruhai arrived at the main courtyard, he saw the old woman coming in and out, those who boiled hot water boiled hot water, and those who served hot water served hot water. Although they looked anxious, they acted in an orderly manner. The nanny entered and exited the delivery room, the doors and windows were closed tightly, and Jia Min's screams could be heard from time to time. Lin Ruhai couldn't help feeling very anxious, and hurriedly asked a woman, "What's the matter, Ma'am? What does Mrs. Wen say?"

The woman stopped and said with a quick smile: "Returning to the master, when the master went out, the wife started, saying that today is a great joy for the Rongguo Mansion, and told us not to tell the master, but Wen Po said that the wife's fetal position is right, so it's okay. "

Lin Ruhai scolded: "How can you not send someone to tell me about such an important matter? It's only been nine months, how did you give birth? I went out early in the morning, and now it's evening, can my wife eat? Do you still have strength? Since the fetal position is right, Why has there been no movement for so long? Go and ask Granny Wen to come back and tell me if you want to ask the doctor to wait."

The mother-in-law hurriedly said: "This is also strange. Yesterday the doctor said that everything was safe. I don't think the wife suddenly started it today. She never slipped or ate something wrong. The old woman said that the pregnancy is more than ten months old. No, the date of this birth is determined by God. My wife has a very good pregnancy. Although it has been nine months, there is no hindrance. Now my wife has eaten a lot of things that can be restrained, and she is now in good spirits and stable. My mother-in-law said that the birth canal has been opened for three fingers, and I think it will be soon. As for the doctors, I have invited two of them, and now they are waiting in the outer courtyard."

Lin Ruhai breathed a sigh of relief, and sat waiting outside, his eyes fixed on the red silk curtain hanging on the door of the delivery room.

It was late at that time, the wind and snow suddenly fell, the room had already been lighted with butter and wax, which made it look like daylight, and the screen window reflected the figure in the room, as if someone was helping Jia Min to walk around, Lin Ruhai was shocked again.

The mother-in-law stood by, pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Because it is the first child, the wife walks around, and it is easy to give birth to a brother."

Lin Ruhai was relieved that in his previous life, when Daiyu and her brother were born, it was extremely difficult, but he was busy with official duties at that time, he had to go to the yamen, he was not at home, and he never witnessed the scene of giving birth.

This life is different from the previous life, probably the fate has already changed, and the couple is not like the previous life, so this child will be born safely.

Lin Ruhai prayed silently in her heart, only wishing for the safety of her wife and children.

After a while, there was movement in the room, but outside it suddenly said that the Rongguo Mansion had given birth gifts.

Because Jia Min was only nine months old at this time, and the two families were so close, the Rongguo Mansion wanted to wait two days for the delivery, but Jia Min would give birth prematurely. Hearing the news, they hurriedly prepared duck eggs, meals, raw dates, Chestnuts, sheep, and colorful embroidered brocade clothes were ordered to be delivered.

Lin Ruhai was worried about Jia Min, and after only seeing her once, she repeated what Wen Po said, and asked her to reply to Jia Mu.

Jia's mother was in a hurry at home, knocking on the ground with her cane, and said: "Min'er is the first child, how can I have any experience? My old lady should go there in person. It's been a day, and I don't know how I'm doing." That's it."

Then, Jia's mother complained about Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng and his wife, saying: "I should have gone before, but you don't allow it."

Everyone laughed wryly, and Jia Zheng hurriedly said: "Nowadays it's freezing and snowy, walking is inconvenient. My sister-in-law has already said that I don't dare bother my mother to come, and my sons are even more worried about my mother going on the road. Didn't the people who went say that, my sister's baby is very healthy. There is no hindrance, mother, don't worry, just wait for the news."

Mother Jia said displeasedly: "It's because you have too many things to do, otherwise, I would already be sitting at Min'er's place now."

There was still no news of Jia Min's safe delivery. Where could Jia's mother sleep, so she ordered people to light lamps everywhere, and it was like daylight in the house. She just sat on the kang and sent people to ask from time to time.

Jia She saw that Jia Zhu, Yuan Chun and Jia Lian's eyes seemed to be tired, and they were so sleepy that they forced themselves to accompany Jia's mother. He also saw that Mrs. Wang dared not speak even though she showed distress, but Jia Zheng didn't care. , couldn't help saying: "The sons are waiting for the news with the mother, let the children go to rest first, they have to go to school tomorrow."

After hearing Jia Amnesty's words, Jia's mother looked at her grandchildren, she really felt very distressed, and said: "Go back to your room and rest, when you wake up, your aunt's brother will be born."

Jia Zhu hurriedly said: "Grandmother and the old lady are waiting here, how can grandson go to rest first?"

Jia Lian was a step behind him, feeling a little annoyed in his heart, and immediately went to Mother Jia, smiling and said: "Grandson is not sleepy at all, grandson waits for good news from aunt with grandmother, grandson thinks that aunt is going to have a younger brother, grandson The son feels happy in his heart, and the grandson wants to be the first to know about his younger brother!"

These words made Jia's mother grieve from ear to ear, she hugged him and couldn't stop rubbing her hands, she said: "It's really my good grandson, it's not in vain for your aunt to dote on you. But if your aunt knows that you missed tomorrow's class because of waiting for the news, You must be unhappy in your heart, so listen to my words and go to rest, and you will know the news when you wake up tomorrow."

After hearing this, Jia Lian and others felt really sleepy again, so they apologized and went back to their rooms.

Jia She hadn't seen his son for a long time, now seeing him so clever and lovable, it made Jia's mother smile. Looking at his smiling face again, it seemed that his wife's voice and smile appeared in front of her eyes.

Seeing this, Mother Jia sighed slightly, she used to dislike Madam Li for being at odds with her own mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, but now she hoped that if Madam Li was still alive, she might be able to persuade Jia Amnesty, lest he only know how to drink with his little wife now, Don't do anything serious, the decree of attacking the noble came down today, the son of the dignified Duke was only awarded the title of first-class general, so he said to Jia She: "I haven't seen you for a long time, and today I see you, I will take advantage of it." While I'm waiting for Min'er's news, I'll tell you something."

Jia She came back to his senses and hurriedly said: "If mother has anything to say, just tell her son."

Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang also looked over, not knowing what Jia's mother wanted to say.

Jia's mother said: "Now that you have become a filial piety, there should be a master in your room. Tomorrow, I will invite the official matchmaker to tell you a family relationship. Don't just focus on drinking, but do something serious." It's urgent."

Hearing that Mother Jia wanted to marry Jia She, Mrs. Wang's heart trembled. She wondered whether Jia She's wife would seize the power of housekeeper after entering the house.

As for Jia Zheng, who had always been pedantic and upright, and was a brother, he didn't intervene in his elder brother's marriage, so naturally he didn't speak up.

Jia She said: "It's up to the mother to decide everything, but if you like someone, at least send someone to tell the father-in-law's family that although the son is unworthy, the father-in-law loves Lian'er, and we have to agree to us before we can propose marriage to other people's family." "He also knows that his father-in-law looks down on him now, but fortunately he treats his son very well, better than at home.

When Jia Mu heard this, she felt a little relieved, and said, "It's natural. If they don't agree, how can you get married?"

Jia Amnesty pursed his lips and stopped talking.

Jia's mother said again: "There is another thing. Although you are a father, Lian'er grew up in front of me. You and your daughter-in-law can't make decisions about his future marriage. It must be approved by me. I am old. Although she is a filial piety, she doesn't want to go anywhere, but Min'er often goes out to socialize, and she is considerate to her nephew. When the time comes, I will ask her to tell Lian'er a good relationship, and she will recognize her identity A noble family loves Lian'er in the first place, so they will definitely not miss Lian'er."

Jia Mu thought about it and pushed back the Wang family's marriage, so only Jia Min can handle this matter well.

Knowing that Jia Min cared about Jia Lian, Jia She was secretly grateful. After listening to Jia's mother's words, and thinking about the people Lin Ruhai and Jia Min had been friends with in the past, they were not high-ranking officials and dignitaries, but also people with bright futures. For the help of the Yue family, after all, it is better to seek such a family of wives, and hurriedly said: "My sister has a good vision, I have nothing to worry about."

Mother Jia nodded in satisfaction. It would be better to leave it to someone else than to her own daughter. I don't know that she can give birth safely now.

However, shortly after the people from Jia's family left, when Lin Ruhai was impatient, he suddenly heard a cry in the room, and a steady woman said loudly: "It's born, it's born! Congratulations, master, my wife gave birth to a white and fat baby." brothers!"

Lin Ruhai was overjoyed immediately, and hurriedly asked, "How is your wife?"

As soon as these words came out, I heard Mrs. Wen chuckled inside, and said: "Brother just fell into the grass, we have to wait for an hour or two to find out if it's good or not!" He said, ignoring the outside, only using the boiled Xiaoyin The scissors cut the baby's umbilical cord, tied it tightly with the same boiled cotton thread, and washed the baby with hot water, and did not send it outside for fear of the wind.

Jia Min heard that she had given birth to a son, although she was still in pain, she was full of joy on her face, and after a while, after the afterbirth was expelled and there was no bleeding, she changed her clothes and moved to the kang, and the ground was cleaned up in an instant.

Wenpo ordered the nanny to bring her brother up. The nanny was chosen by Jia Min half a month ago. There are two of them, one surnamed Liu and one surnamed Zhang. They are both in their twenties and have just given birth to two daughters Yue, all of them are beautiful in appearance, elegant in manner, good in life, and clean and tidy. Since they were elected, they have begun to pay attention to eating and drinking.

Jia Min looked at Dahong's infant son with his eyes closed, and almost shed tears. Fortunately, he knew that he could not cry after giving birth, so he stopped, but thought of Lin Ruhai, and said, "Master is outside? I heard the master speak, brother Tell the master to take a look."

Wen Po smiled and said: "The house has been tidied up, please come in, master."

As soon as the words fell, Lin Ruhai came in hurriedly before he could go out. He thought that after knowing that Jia Min's mother and child were safe, Tete took a bath and changed his clothes, and then drove away the cold air with a smoked cage, with a happy expression on his face, not at all. Alcoholic.

Lin Ruhai strode to the Kang, bent down and looked down at his son lying beside Jia Min's pillow.

This is his Lin Ruhai's son, the first in this life.

Lin Ruhai suddenly felt as if he was in a dream. He couldn't believe it. The son he couldn't ask for in his previous life was born like this in this life. It was as if the heavens made up for him. He looked very strong. Although he wasn't the son in his previous life, it was better this way. , I hope this son can grow up safely.

Lin Ruhai looked at Jia Min with tenderness in his eyes, and said, "Madam, you have worked hard."

Jia Min rubbed his forehead, although he was haggard, he was satisfied, and said with a smile: "Sir, don't say that, even if it's hard work, it's also rewarding. Look, his eyebrows and eyes look like the master's? He was born with six catties and nine taels. Master must remember to give our son a good name, and don't forget to tell our ancestors that our Lin family has a descendant."

Lin Ruhai said: "Don't worry, I have drawn up quite a few words, and I will choose the best one after the full moon."

Although it was time to give birth, after Lin Ruhai left the delivery room, he still went to the ancestral hall to kowtow to his ancestors, and told his ancestors that the Lin family had a future. The sons and heirs actually cut off the incense of the ancestors, and the ancestors in this life will protect them, and if they have a son in peace, they will never stop offering sacrifices."

After saying that, he kowtowed several times and burnt incense again before exiting the ancestral hall.

The heavy snow still hasn't stopped, and under the lights, there are many waves, and the surroundings are white, which looks extraordinarily clean.

Jia Min gave birth safely, and there was joy and laughter in the mansion. Even though it was snowing heavily, it was hard to hide the beautiful maids in red clothes who shuttled between the courtyards. On the branches, it reflects the joy in the house.

Seeing this, Lin Ruhai smiled and said, "I tell you to go on, each person will be rewarded with two months' money, and each person will make two more sets of clothes for the Chinese New Year this year."

When everyone heard this, their cheeks were filled with joy, and they came to kowtow to express their gratitude.

Lin Ruhai said to Qingkong and other maidservants who served Jia Min personally: "You have worked hard serving your wife these days, go and get a few bolts of red satin, and make two more clothes for each of you."

Qingkong heard the words and laughed: "Still waiting for the master's order? Madam gave the order earlier, not only rewarded satin to make clothes, but also rewarded gold and silver carabinies to buy fruit for us to eat!"

Lin Ruhai smiled, and said: "My wife rewarded you, my wife rewarded you, what I said was mine."

Qingkong and the others were overjoyed and thanked him very much.

Lin Ruhai was full of joy when he got a son, and after rewarding him, he hurriedly went out to tell the butler, "It's freezing cold today, and our family has a happy event. It's time to do good deeds for my brother. You take people to the street to give porridge and steamed buns tomorrow morning. The porridge must be inserted into the chopsticks so that it does not fall over, and the steamed buns must be solid and not mixed with rough noodles, and then go to inquire about the situation outside the city, if anyone is in trouble, come back to me, let's help."

The butler was secretly surprised, this was a lot of expense, but seeing Lin Ruhai was so happy, and thought that the Lin family had a great career, so he didn't need to care about it, so he quickly agreed and went to take care of it the next day.

Lin Ruhaizi hadn't fallen asleep yet, and then fell asleep, tossing and turning. When she got up in the morning, she only visited Jia Min's mother and son, then changed into an official uniform. She didn't care about breakfast, and hurried to work. Jia Min was stuffed. Give him something to eat on the way.

The news of Jia Min's birth had not yet spread. When Lin Ruhai was seated in the Hanlin Academy, someone came over, looked at his face carefully, and said with a smile, "What did you do yesterday? My eyes turned dark." Quan'er, you seem to have lost your eyes, you appear in front of the saint with this appearance, isn't it hindering the saint's eyes?"

Emperor Xuankang valued Lin Ruhai very much, and this man's words inevitably contained some sourness.

Lin Ruhai smiled, and said, "What are you doing? It's just that you haven't slept well all night."

Looking left and right, Lin Ruhai took off the gold watch in his lapel and looked at it because he didn't see his colleague, who was also a member of Jinke's team. His face immediately became tense, and he hurriedly said, "It's past time, why don't you see brother Cheng Sheng? Could it be that you are late?"

Before he could finish a sentence, the roll call came at Mao's hour, but Cheng Sheng was still nowhere to be seen.

Lin Ruhai sighed secretly, Cheng Sheng was very diligent at first, and the roll call hadn't arrived today, so he might not escape the punishment.

Thinking of this, someone said: "It's really late, brother Cheng Sheng is late, and he is on the board!"

Everyone else went to watch, Lin Ruhai hesitated for a while, pretending to check on official business, but he didn't come.

Lin Ruhai was afraid that Cheng Sheng would be ashamed, so he didn't go, but he was secretly ashamed. He didn't sleep well last night, and he almost couldn't get up in the morning. It was Jia Min who remembered the time and sent someone to call him early. Otherwise, not only Cheng Sheng, but also Lin Ruhai will suffer today.

When Cheng Sheng got over the board and staggered in, Lin Ruhai hurriedly stepped forward to help him, and said, "Brother Cheng Sheng, be careful."

People in the world always like to read other people's jokes. When Cheng Sheng was beaten, many people gloated. He felt even more ashamed and angry when he saw this. Seeing Lin Ruhai coming out of the inside instead of going in from the outside, and thinking that he didn't see Lin Ruhai watching when he was beaten earlier, he couldn't help but He was very grateful, and said with a wry smile: "Brother Ru Hai."

Lin Ruhai didn't ask him why he was late, but after helping him to sit down, they each went to work.

After get off work, Lin Ruhai helped him out again. On the way, Cheng Shengfang said, "It snowed heavily last night, but today the road was blocked by snow, and the axle of the carriage broke on the way, so Fang was a little late."

Lin Ruhai comforted: "It's justifiable, brother, don't blame yourself."

Cheng Sheng smiled wryly, and said: "I just feel ashamed, I think how conceited Cheng Sheng is, and I don't want to be flogged like this today, everyone knows it, it's really embarrassing."

Lin Ruhai sighed slightly, and said: "Who is smooth sailing when a man is alive? It's only twenty small boards, why should you keep it in your heart? If his elder brother is on the rise and everyone is not flattering, how can anyone dare to mention today's events? Besides, today is not you On the contrary, if you are depressed because of this, people will look down on you."

Cheng Sheng listened to his persuasion, calmed down a bit, and showed a smile.

Lin Ruhai saw that he was thinking about it, and smiled again: "Yesterday, Jiannei gave birth to a son, and you and I have no time to spare when Xisan was born, otherwise I have to invite you to go. But if Xisan is not going, you have to go at the full moon , I still want to ask for your gift for my son."

After hearing this, Cheng Sheng hurriedly congratulated, and said with a smile: "Although I can't come to Xisan, I can go with you."

Lin Ruhai laughed.

After leaving the Imperial Academy, he saw Jia Zheng approaching on snow, and Lin Ruhai hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Jia Zheng returned the salute and said with a smile: "Congratulations sister-in-law, the old lady went to visit my sister early this morning."

Lin Ruhai smiled and said, "My mother-in-law will remember you."

Seeing him wearing a brand-new sixth-rank official uniform, smiling and talking, with a radiant face, and seeing Jia She approaching from a distance, Jia She attacked Jia Daishan's official, and he was a first-class general, ranked first-rank, Lin Ruhai's eyes flashed , Go up to salute with a smile.

Jia Amnesty is now at a time when the scenery is in full swing, and seeing Lin Ruhai is even more joyful, saying: "I met the saint today, and the saint praised my sister-in-law's character and talent. Let's go to my house later so that we can have a raw meal."

Lin Ruhai declined and said, "It's another day. I heard that my mother-in-law is here, so I have to go home."

Jia Shefang remembered that Jia Min had given birth yesterday, he laughed, and said: "Yes, why did I forget, I will go to congratulate my younger sister in person tomorrow, and I will go home first."

Lin Ruhai nodded and watched the two brothers leave.

Cheng Sheng's eyes flashed a hint of ridicule, and he said: "Brother Ruhai, these two brothers-in-law are wonderful people."

Lin Ruhai knew that he had always looked down on Jia She, Jia Zheng and other people who depended on their ancestral shadows, so it was impossible for him to tell him that he also felt that these two brothers-in-law were incapable, so he said aside: "I see it looks like it's snowing again today, Since brother's carriage is destroyed, you might as well go back with the carriage, but I have some homework that I need to ask brother for advice."

Cheng Sheng readily agreed.

Lin Ruhai sent Cheng Sheng home and then turned around. He ordered someone to take some high-quality sore medicine and sent it to Cheng Sheng. He also sent two books, which Cheng Sheng borrowed and copied when he heard that he owned the book today. After that, he went to Jia Min's room and heard that Jia's mother had left, so he asked Jia Min, "What did mother-in-law say today?"

Jia Min was thinking about what her mother said, one was to entrust Lian'er's lifelong affairs to herself, which was a pleasant surprise, and she was afraid that Jia She would make the decision indiscriminately, and marry Jia Lian to a different family, and the other was a little embarrassing But it was Jia's mother who wanted to marry a house-filling lady for Jia She, and asked her what kind of family she had. She was a younger sister and she was already married. How could she be a matchmaker for her brother?What's more, with my elder brother's temperament, it would be fine if he knew how to make progress, but he is used to spending time and money, so he will not hinder the daughter of a good family.

Hearing Lin Ruhai's question, Jia Min spoke out what was bothering her.

Lin Ruhai was surprised, then smiled, and said: "What is there to worry about? When you see the old lady of the Li family during the third bath, just tell the old lady of the Li family that it is okay, and ask them to take care. As the eldest uncle, the Yue family , if it is said to be a matchmaker for the eldest brother-in-law and then marry, it is a very reasonable matter, let alone they make the decision, and you are afraid that the stepwife will bully Lian'er?"

In the previous life, Jia She married his wife, Mrs. Xing, who came from a very low family background. Even though she controlled all the property of her natal family and brought it as a dowry, she was very humble and mean. Those who have no knowledge and ability can neither raise Jia Lian nor teach Yingchun, so they are really unbearable mothers.However, Jia Amnesty has its faults, as long as he treats Mrs. Xing kindly, Mrs. Xing will not only know how to save money. Jia Amnesty is unreliable, so Mrs. Xing has to save money for retirement.

Something happened to the Li family in the previous life, but in this life the Li family is still doing well. With the Li family in charge, they would never agree to a family background like Mrs. Xing's. After all, the step-wife will be Jia Lian's aunt in the future. If something goes wrong, it will also affect Jia Lian's life. future.

In fact, it is Madam Xing's blessing not to marry Jia She. Marrying a well-matched family and living a peaceful life is much better than marrying Jia She but having an embarrassing status. After all, she is almost isolated in the Rongguo Mansion. No help, mother-in-law dislikes, children ignore, daughter-in-law is unfilial, even the girls in front of Jia's mother can speak coldly.

Jia Min clapped her hands and said with a smile: "I actually forgot, and I will tell Mrs. Li tomorrow." Originally, she didn't really want to take care of her brother's marriage, but she couldn't bear what her mother said, and she didn't want her to give up like last time. My elder brother chooses the daughter of a minor official. Speaking of which, my sister-in-law is from a low family background, so she will feel that it is not decent enough to go out to socialize.

On the day of Xisan, the Lin family was extremely lively. The woman Wen who delivered the baby and washed the third day was smiling from ear to ear, and everyone got news. Except for Cheng Sheng's wife, the other concubines of Beijing, Dongping, Nan'an, Jiamu, Li Mother and others are here.

Jia Lian specially asked for a day off, and came early with Jia's mother, wandering around Jia Min's mother and son, seeing that Jia Min treated her as always, she greeted her as soon as she came here, she was even more happy, and hurriedly took out the small bag she brought. He handed the burden to Jia Min and said, "This is given to my younger brother by my nephew, please accept it for my younger brother, my aunt."

Jia Min smiled and said, "Good boy, Auntie thanked you on behalf of your brother."

Ming Qingkong opened it and saw that they were all the things Jia Lian wore to play when he was young, or the gold and silver collar and the longevity lock, or the rattle drum with seven clever pictures and nine chains, and some of them were given to him by Jia Min at the beginning. But Jia Lian was very young at that time, so naturally he didn't remember it, and now he sent it back, no matter what, this kind of intention alone is really rare.

Hearing her praise, Jia Lian was even more happy, with his head held high and his chest held high, quite imposing.

Jia Min said: "Your grandmother is here today, you go and see her."

Jia Lian looked at Jia's mother, saw Jia's mother nodding, and then went to see Li's mother. When Li's grandson saw her grandson, she was very happy. It's my grandson, whose nickname is Lian'er, who is the nephew of Mrs. Lin's natal family, and I think he came here today with the old lady of the Rongguo Mansion."

Everyone suddenly realized after hearing this, and hurriedly gave a gift.

Jia Lian thanked him politely, and when everyone saw him like this, they secretly praised him, and they couldn't help boasting a few more words.

When Mother Li went to see Jia Min, Jia Min waited until there was no one in the room before telling her about the matter, and said: "I often see Lian'er envious of other people having mothers, and I feel sad in my heart. My sister-in-law has been gone for three years now." , my eldest brother should be in charge of things, so that Lian'er is not taken care of now, if the family chooses, he will definitely not bully Lian'er."

Mother Li said thoughtfully, "You just have to confine yourself to confinement, and leave the matter to me. Anyway, tomorrow your mother has a candidate and you have to tell us. If we don't agree, they won't be able to get married. We always have to do it in person." Just take a look and think it's appropriate, if it's not appropriate, you won't agree. How can you let Lian'er down when you love Lian'er so much? Don't worry, Lian'er is my grandson."

Li's mother didn't like Jia's amnesty at all, but Jia Lian was her daughter's only flesh and blood, she never looked at Jia Lian badly, and she also hoped that Jia Lian would have a kind and sensible stepmother, so they would be gone , with the care of his aunt Jia Min, and his sensible stepmother, his life will not be bad.

After Li's mother returned, she began to pay attention. Today, she heard that the Jia family was afraid that Jia Lian would be wronged by the entrance of a noble girl, so they chose a young girl from the Xing family for Jia She. She was his only lifeblood, so he felt reasonable, and the eldest girl of the Xing family was very beautiful, so she was a little moved, and ordered the matchmaker to come and inform the Li family, and ask what they meant.

Li's mother only asked the matchmaker about the identity of the eldest daughter of the Xing family. When she heard that the Xing family was poor, the father of the eldest daughter of the Xing family was gone although she was a small official. Only the eldest daughter of the Xing family lived with her younger siblings. , and now he is raising his younger siblings, so the flowering period has been delayed. Now he is 19 years old and has not yet said that he is married.

Li's mother asked Miss Xing's character carefully, and she felt that it was inappropriate, so she said decisively: "Go back and tell your in-laws, although the lady who fills the house is of low background and will not let Lian'er be wronged, but the second wife in the house is the daughter of the Wang family. The eldest sister-in-law has such a low background, how can she manage the house? Lian'er is the eldest grandson of the Rongguo Mansion, and she will marry a wife in the future. Is it possible to make Lian's daughter-in-law bow down to such a mother-in-law? It's not good to have discord even if there is no quarrel. After all, my uncle is a first-class general, no matter how bad it is, there is no reason to marry the daughter of such a family."

The official matchmaker heard this, so she had to come back and tell Jia Mu so.

Mother Jia didn't speak for a long time, and felt a little angry in her heart. She is the mother of Jia She, and now she even has to listen to Mother Li's choice of daughter-in-law?When I went to see Jia Min, I couldn't help complaining.

Jia Min hurriedly persuaded with a smile: "My daughter thinks what Mrs. Li said is very reasonable. If you want a family and everything to be prosperous, you must have an orderly parenting. The elder sister-in-law is from a low background, and the second sister-in-law is from a taller family. How about the elder sister-in-law who is the housekeeper? Convinced? I’m afraid my sister-in-law doesn’t have the confidence to take care of the house? I think for Lian’er’s sake, and it’s easy for Lian’er to marry her in the future if she has a mother-in-law with a better background. Besides, my sister-in-law is from a good background, so it is also our family's dignity, isn't it?"

Jia's mother said annoyedly: "I'm old, and the choice is useless. I should leave it to my in-laws to worry about!"

Jia Min pursed her lips and smiled. She thought it would be better for the Li family to be the master. They chose to fill in the house, so there must be some ties. It was very reasonable, so he smiled and said: "The Li family should have to worry about it. Whether the choice is good or not is their decision. In the future, we can't have a quarrel with our family because of my sister-in-law."

Mother Jia also didn't want to be far away from the in-laws of the Li family, she nodded and said, "It makes sense to hear what you say."

Sure enough, the Li family chose a girl from another family for Jia Amnesty, surnamed Dou, her father was a fourth-rank official, she was 20 years old this year, she was a well-educated woman, but her temperament was extremely strong.Her mother died young, and after her stepmother came in, she pampered her younger brother everywhere, trying to flatter and kill him. She was so angry that she turned against her stepmother several times, kicked out several husbands of her younger brother, and asked her grandmother to choose a husband for her younger brother. He was selected as a scholar and married his wife, who happened to be the daughter of Li's mother's natal cousin.

However, Ms. Dou also lost her reputation because of this. In addition, one winter when she was a teenager, she was pushed into the water by her stepmother's brother and hit Taihu Lake and hurt her body. Ask about.

The Li family chose Ms. Dou because, although she has a strong temper, she is sensible and sensible, so she might be able to overwhelm Jia She; The niece of his natal family, in the future his brothers will have to rely on the help of the Li family. Based on all the above, Li's mother chose her.

After Lin Ruhai learned of the candidate from Jia Min, he secretly praised the Li family's vision, which was several times stronger than the Jia family's vision.

Lin Ruhai knew Miss Dou's father, Dou Daren, and he wasn't a bad person, but he just couldn't stand the pillow storm, and after the house-filling wife gave birth to a son and a daughter after entering the house, it was inevitable that she would favor the house-filling lady and neglect the original pair of children , not to mention Miss Dou has a strong temper and such a reputation, Dou Daren has a good reputation, so he is naturally dissatisfied.

There is just one thing, knowing that the Rongguo Mansion will collapse in 30 or [-] years, how can you watch her marry Jia She with peace of mind?

Lin Ruhai couldn't help but hesitate in his heart.

Thinking of this, he suddenly burst out laughing, who knows what will happen two or thirty years later like himself?I think the Rongguo Mansion is a pit of fire, but others don't think so. After all, marrying Jia She is the wife of a first-class general. Besides, Jia Lian is making great progress now. In the future, even if he can't turn the tide by marrying a wife and a virtuous person, if he manages well, he might not be able to. He escaped the crime of ransacking the family and exterminating the family, but he must be convicted. If he remembers correctly, Mrs. Wang has already done things like champerty lawsuits and huge profits.

Lin Ruhai said with a smile: "You are so fond of confinement, why bother? Is the Li family in charge?"

Jia Min also knows that she has cared too much for her natal family recently, but she is even more afraid that her natal family will cause trouble and harm Lin Ruhai. I should take care of it, I know, when the big brother gets married, I don't care about the rest except Lian'er getting a wife in the future."

If Jia Amnesty and Jia Lian have good wives, they will be able to persuade them. If they can persuade them, they will be able to do business. .

Jia Min told Lin Ruhai what was on her mind, Lin Ruhai nodded in agreement, but sighed in her heart, she didn't know that her daughter died in Rongguo Mansion, a miserable death.

The couple had done their utmost to the Rongguo Mansion. Jia Zheng and his wife had done so many things, but they never lost their lives. Now, Jia She and his wife's fate had changed, and they would not be beheaded like in their previous life.He knew that no matter who adopted Daiyu, he would almost end up in the same end, so he did not attack the Rongguo Mansion. Instead, he remembered Jia Lian's kindness and only hated the chief culprit who drove Daiyu to death. It is impossible to help each other calmly.

The Rongguo Mansion is self-inflicted and cannot live. If they do evil things, they should be rewarded. Even if the retribution comes late, it will eventually come.

Jia Min didn't know what Lin Ruhai was thinking, and only heard what Lin Ruhai said about Dou Daren's family, and then ordered someone to find out about Miss Dou's temperament, and entrusted a few sisters. But to be picky, the only bad thing is reputation, but what good reputation does her brother have?Afraid that he might not be worthy of Ms. Dou's character, she said to Li's mother, "Ms. Dou is very good, but I have to explain the matter of big brother to Ms. Dou."

Li's mother said: "I have made it clear to her. Miss Dou said that my brother has already married. She doesn't want to bother him. Now someone is willing to marry her. In the past, she was the first-class general's wife. She can feel proud in front of her stepmother and also feel proud. If she can help her brother, she has nothing to ask for, and she doesn't expect anything from the aunt, but only asks to treat Lian'er well, and Lian'er will give her a pension in the future."

Jia Min sighed: "After hearing this, I seem to be a sensible person."

Li's mother smiled and said: "It's just a sensible person, that's why I fell in love with her. You should be confinement in a few days, right? When my brother is full moon, I will bring her here, and you will see her too, okay, see you Only then will I know."

Jia Min nodded and said with a smile: "It's so good, may I tell my mother and brother?"

Li's mother said: "I haven't said anything yet, but I think it would be better to say a few kind words in front of your in-laws and aunt after you have met."

Startled, Jia Min agreed.

When the child was full moon, Lin Ruhai immediately named his son Rui, which meant wisdom, and Jia Min also thought it was a good name, so he ordered his servants to call him only Master Rui.

This day the Lin family held a banquet, Cheng Sheng always remembered Lin Ruhai's words that day, and remembered Lin Ruhai's act of donating medicine, so he came here specially with his wife, Li's mother also brought Miss Dou, Jia's mother wanted to come, she didn't want to wake up twice at night , It was not very good, so he ordered Mrs. Wang to come over to congratulate and gave a very heavy full moon gift.

Jia Min took a closer look at Miss Dou, she was indeed a beauty, and her overall style was not vulgar. Facing the eyes of everyone, she knew that everyone was thinking about her reputation, but she was still calm and composed.

Jia Min took Ms. Dou and said a few words, and she felt more satisfied in her heart. When she told Jia Mu like this, Jia Mu never cared much about her reputation outside, and Jia Amnesty didn't care much. When she heard that Ms. Dou was a beauty, she ignored it Yes, but Jia Min didn't export all the good things he had said, and within a few days after he came back, he heard that Jia's family had gone to Dou's to propose marriage.

Miss Dou is twenty years old and has not yet left the cabinet, Dou Daren just felt embarrassed, he didn't want to be able to marry into the Duke's mansion as the first-class general's wife today, he was overjoyed, agreed immediately, and the two families got busy with getting married.
