While thinking deeply, Jia Min opened the post and took a closer look. It was the old lady of the Yu family. She couldn't help standing up abruptly and said, "Where can I let the old lady come to the door? We should go to see her."

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly ordered someone to reply to the post, which only said that he would go to see him and so on.He also ordered people to quietly inquire when the Yu family moved in, but they didn't know.Because the post stations are all the residences of officials and their family members, and have their own courtyards, if Jia Min lives in them, he will definitely ask if there are other officials and family members so that he can go to see them, so as not to live in the same post station but not go, which will make people feel cold.

Speaking of the Yu family in this post, Jia Min dared not neglect the slightest.

The Yu family is prosperous, with many descendants, and because of his good teaching, there are many job vacancies in the court, and his position is high and powerful. The old man Yu Xing was once named a first-rank university scholar, his eldest son Yu He was also ranked first-rank, and his grandson Yu Huai was only in his twenties ten years ago, and he was already a fourth-rank official. Yu He's daughter is the current Crown Princess, the eldest granddaughter of the old lady Yu.There is only one bad thing, that is, seven or eight years ago, three generations of Yu Xing, Yu He, and Yu Huai passed away, leaving only one young grandson, who was only seven or eight years old. After all, a first-rank official and a fourth-rank official were not as good when they were alive.

Jia Min has not been in the capital for many years, but he has heard quite a lot about the affairs of the Yu family. The Yu family and the four kings and eight princes all started to prosper at about the same time, but now Rongguo Mansion and other places are full of powerless, but the Yu family has many The children and grandchildren are very talented. Although most of them are gone now, there is still a lingering shade, and another princess and concubine came out. Therefore, after learning that the Yu family just arrived at the inn, they hurriedly cleaned it up and exchanged it for Lin Rui and Daiyu. Take the clothes of the guests, take them and pack the gifts and go there.

All post stations have courtyards, and the layout is quite elegant. Because Jia Min came first, and because of Lin Ruhai's power, every time he came to Gusu, it was considered a return home, so he lived in the best courtyard in the post station. live at home.

Before leaving, Lin Rui had already found out how powerful the Yu family was, so he quietly followed behind his mother.

Mrs. Yu personally welcomed them in, and after she sat down, she said with a smile: "I said I was going, so why bother you to come instead?"

Jia Min smiled all over her face, and said: "We should come here, but when the old lady arrived, I was watching the little girl take a bath, but I was delayed for a while, when the old lady wrote the post, she was about to come to see the old lady. "

When Mrs. Yu heard her mention her daughter, she hurriedly looked at Daiyu, who was being held by the nanny, and saw that she was looking at her with open eyes, but she was not very old, but she was very good-looking, smart and delicate, she couldn't help but feel happy, and asked: "Is this Ling Qianjin? She looks so neat, I heard she was born on the Huachao Festival?" Said while calling to her.

Jia Min motioned for Nanny Zhu to go over, and said with a smile, "It's just the posture of the willow tree, I can't be praised by the old lady."

Old Madam Yu hugged Daiyu and did not let go, looked at Daiyu carefully again, smiled all over her face, and said: "Stop being humble, the old man said yes, it is very good." Said, she took off her wrist A pair of jasper bracelets as a gift for Daiyu.

Jia Min hurriedly said: "It's too expensive, how can she afford it?"

Old Madam Yu smiled and said, "Why can't I afford it? This was rewarded in the palace at the beginning of the year. Thinking about it, it's not a bit more delicate than what we usually wear, but it has a good origin. Give it to your daughter, when she grows up Wear it." He also ordered the servant girl to sort out two gifts from the luggage she brought, and gave it to Lin Rui and Daiyu, but it was four horses on a ruler, and four pairs of gold and silver scorpions each.

Because of Lin Ruhai, Lin Rui felt that his younger sister had countless benefits. He was happy when others said that his younger sister was good, but he didn't care too much when he got the gift. He only came up to pay his respects, and thanked Daiyu instead.

Mrs. Yu hurriedly handed Daiyu to the nanny, who also ordered the jade bracelet to take it away. Fang took Lin Rui to look at it carefully, and praised him. At that time, the old man had also seen it before, it is really rare in the world, now looking at Mr. Ling, I feel more and more that the voice of the young phoenix is ​​better than the old phoenix, and the future is immeasurable."

Jia Min was happy in his heart, but he said in his mouth: "The old lady praised it absurdly. If it is true, it will be the luck of my Lin family."

Old Madam Yu let go of her hand, and said: "It must be so. The family is very good at teaching children and grandchildren. Although he is the only child, he has not spoiled him. Even though he is old, he has spoiled his children and grandchildren. On the contrary, it has made him neglect his studies, and he is not now. Compete."

He asked again, "Are you going back to Gusu?"

Jia Min also had countless doubts about Mrs. Yu's sudden visit to Gusu. He hadn't heard any rumors before, but when she asked her about it, he said, "Our master went to Beijing to report on his work. There is nothing wrong with us at home, and he hasn't been back for a year or two. I’m in Gusu, and there happened to be a child of an old man who was alone in Gusu, so I took the opportunity to go and have a look. According to what the old lady said, is he also going to Gusu?”

Old Madam Yu sighed, with a slight look of worry on her brows, she said: "That's not true. I heard that there is a Panxiang Temple in Gusu, and the abbot of the Panxiang Temple is very good at performing congenital alchemy. This time, I want to pay a visit. "

Jia Min's heart moved, and he said with a smile: "Coincidentally, we are also going to Panxiang Temple."

Mrs. Yu was overjoyed when she heard the words, and asked, "There really is a Panxiang Temple?"

Jia Min knew that Master Lingtai, the abbot of Panxiang Temple, was Mrs. Su's old friend. Because she was good at performing innate numbers, the temple was full of incense, and many dignitaries came all the way from thousands of miles to ask her to help her. Personal calculation is already a great kindness. Could it be that Mrs. Yu also came here because of this?

Thinking of this, Jia Min laughed and said, "It's not false, this temple does exist."

After thinking about it, she guessed the purpose of Old Madam Yu's visit, and then said: "The humble house has already been tidied up. Although there is no golden house and silver maidservants, it is still clean. If the old lady has no place to stay in Gusu, why not?" Come to the humble house to stay for a few days, and when we choose a date, we will go to Panxiang Temple together. The Lingtai master of Panxiang Temple is eccentric, very noble, and usually refuses to meet people. Fortunately, the daughter of our old family became a monk in Panxiang Temple It would be easier for master's disciples to meet each other."

A look of surprise flashed in Old Madam Yu's eyes, and she said, "The family has such a relationship with Panxiang Temple? It's really unexpected. Listening to what you said, I really want to disturb the family once, and I have to invite you." It would be good to introduce Master Lingtai."

Jia Min laughed and said, "It's a blessing that the old lady is here in person, why bother?"

After hearing this, Old Madam Yu became more and more delighted, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I brought my little grandson with me when I came back."

Jia Min was startled, and suddenly remembered something that he had heard before. Mrs. Yu's youngest grandson is named Yu Heng, who is eight years old this year, and Yu He got it when he was in his forties. His mother died due to a blood collapse, and everyone said that his life was hard to overcome his mother.Another three months later, elder brother Yu Huai, his wife and son encountered bandits on their way back to Beijing to visit their relatives.If it's over at this time, it's fine. In the year when Yu He went hunting with Emperor Xuankang to Iron Net Mountain, he suffered a small injury and didn't care about it. Unexpectedly, he passed away due to the injury soon after returning.

Because the four generations of the Yu family died within one year of Yu Heng's birth, and only the old lady Yu remained, everyone said that Yu Heng's fate was too hard, and that he killed the whole family was the fate of the lone star of the evil spirit, who originally lived in the mansion. The other offshoots of the direct line, including Yu Xing's other two sons and three grandchildren, all moved out of the Yu Mansion one after another. After they left, they were all safe. Now only Mrs. Yu and Yu Heng depend on each other.

There is a saying in an ancient poem: "Jiegu and Ersha are afraid of the same day, and they will see each other when they come together at the same time. If they are ugly, they will see each other. The body, the loss of a son and a wife is still a burden to the father, and the time and the day are inseparable.”

It can be seen how fierce the fate of the lone star of Tiansha is.

Old Madam Yu saw that although Jia Min didn't speak, there was a trace of surprise in her eyes, and she didn't have any intention of fear. She felt relieved. After all these years, no one in the whole capital was afraid of Yu Heng, so she mentioned him. I also feel worried, the second son and third grandson are like this, let alone others, can't help but smile bitterly, and said: "I think you have heard about my little grandson."

Jia Min blushed, nodded and said: "I have heard it vaguely. It's just that those gossips are not accurate? They spread a lot, and they come and go again and again. It was a matter of nothing, so it was spread. Don't worry about it, old lady." Too worried."

Jia Min couldn't help but think of Huo Can's story, and felt that the rumors were more and more hateful.

She was originally a very intelligent woman, and she had been with Lin Ruhai and his wife for many years, and was nurtured by Lin Ruhai, so she didn't care about surprises.

After hearing Jia Min's words, Mrs. Yu felt more comforted, and she couldn't help but said: "All talk makes money, and accumulation destroys bones. Why don't I worry about it? Heng'er is so young, what have you done? Think about it." I feel dissatisfied. His mother's health was not very good, and he was born at such an old age. There are many people who died at her mother's age. How many people died at a young age? Where is his mother alone? What about a person? People have good and bad times, if they could have predicted it, they wouldn't say such things. His brother's family was in bad luck, and they encountered robbers. There are many people who encounter robbers in the world, but just Everyone knows that they are nobler than ordinary people. The affairs of his grandfather and his father have nothing to do with him. When the old man was young, he lived in the army, not to mention how many diseases he suffered. At this age, his father It turned out that I was not careful, and I didn't apply medicine in time for a small injury, and just said it was fine, but whoever thought it would become a serious illness when I came back, and it can't be cured."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Yu smiled with tears, and said: "Look at me, it's rare that you are willing to listen, and it has become a waste of words. These words have been hidden in my heart for many years, and others are afraid of Heng'er. I don't like them either, so I didn't have the heart to say it, but I said it in front of you." He sighed a long time, with a sad expression on his face.

Jia Min comforted: "Our master has never believed in fate. Many things are done by people. Believe in those and follow what they say. Isn't it the same as fate? If you don't believe it, you can do it." Change it. At the beginning, some people said that our master’s fate did not inherit the incense, but now we have both sons and daughters, and those monks have been slapped alive. In addition, some people said that our friend’s daughter has a fate that affects my father. Mother, you are still living a good life, and your family is happy."

After saying that, Old Madam Yu smiled, with a hint of gratitude in her eyes, and said, "I'll just say, you are people of insight, if you say that our Heng'er is hard-fated, why didn't you restrain me and his sister?" ? His sister is in the palace, the crown prince is favored by saints, and he has both sons and daughters. Who would say she is noble? How could she be restrained by Heng Er?"

Jia Min smiled and said: "That's exactly what I said." Then he laughed and said: "We never care about these things, the old lady might as well ask the young master to come out and meet, how can we really see no guests in the future?"

After hearing this, Mrs. Yu was even more delighted, and hurriedly ordered someone to call Yu Heng.

Yu Heng was only eight years old this year. Because his grandfather and brother were both dead and the world was in the early days, he could clearly hear the words of Mrs. Yu and Jia Min in the inner hall. Although he was grateful, he still came out with a cold face.

When Jia Min looked at him, he saw that he was younger than Lin Rui, but his figure was about the same, his complexion was a little darker, he was wearing indigo flowered arrow sleeves, and a moon-white brocade belt, with long eyebrows and phoenix eyes. Rui's gentle and jade-like temperament, at such a young age, is even more heroic, but there is more than sternness, not enough gentleness, which makes people daunting.

Regardless of how to think about it, Jia Min was full of praise, and hurriedly ordered someone to present a gift, which was also four horses on a ruler, and four pairs of gold and silver carabiners each.

Yu Heng went up to thank him, glanced at Lin Rui, then at Daiyu, and saw that they had a slight smile on their faces, and they didn't show any dislike. There was a hint of surprise.

Lin Rui had just heard what Mrs. Yu and Jia Min had said. He knew the reason, and felt a little pity for Yu Heng in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. After all, he was taught by Lin Ruhai, so he was naturally different from ordinary people. Authentic: "Brother Guan seems to practice martial arts? He is more heroic than me. However, I also learned a few skills from my father. Why don't we compete with each other someday?"

Yu Heng returned the gift, but didn't speak, only looked at his grandmother.

Mrs. Yu was very happy to see Lin Rui like this, and said with a smile: "We are going to stay at Brother Rui's house for a few days. When we meet, I don't care whether you make friends through literature or martial arts. Just be careful, don't hurt yourself."

Jia Min said: "Old Madam, don't worry, although the dog is naughty, he knows how to measure it."

Old Madam Yu wanted Yu Heng and Lin Rui to get close in her heart, not for power, but it was rare to see a child who was about Yu Heng's age and did not dislike his tough life, she nodded and said: "I think your son is very good, why has he ever been naughty?" Is it? Heng'er, take your brother Lin to eat fruit in the back hall, and let us girls talk outside."

Yu Heng agreed, and he really invited Lin Rui in. Daiyu, who was drowsy in the nanny's arms, suddenly opened her eyes, but she didn't agree. !"

Suddenly hearing Daiyu speak, Jia Min and Lin Rui were very surprised, Lin Rui said: "Your sister can talk?"

Although Daiyu could already walk a few steps, she was still young and hadn't spoken yet. A child of one year old could probably speak a few words. Lin Ruhai often said that she was smart, but no matter how much she teased her, she refused to speak. Fortunately, they She was not in a hurry, she never expected that Lin Ruhai would be gone now, she got close to her brother who was similar in appearance to Lin Ruhai, and when she saw that he was about to leave, she immediately refused and uttered a single word.

Lin Rui stepped forward to hug her, and said to Yu Heng, "This is my younger sister, whose nickname is Daiyu."

Yu Hengsheng had no brothers or sisters to accompany him when he was born. Seeing Daiyu wrapping his hands around Lin Rui, her eyes seemed to be open but not open, and her expression seemed to be sleeping but not sleeping. Perhaps it was because she had already bathed, and her cheeks were slightly flushed, almost glowing. , looked more and more cute, thought for a while, took off a piece of jade pendant tied on the brocade belt, handed it to Daiyu, and said, "Give it to my sister."

Daiyu is ignorant and ignorant, whenever someone handed something to her, she held it in her hand immediately, and it is the same today, no matter who the person who handed it was, but Jia Min saw at a glance that the jade pendant was crystal clear, flowing with precious light, absolutely extraordinary, He hurriedly said, "This is unacceptable."

Old Madam Yu said with a smile: "It's not a good thing, it's just a piece of jade. Give it to the little girl."

Yu Heng thought for a while, and said seriously to Jia Min: "When I first meet my sister, be stubborn to her."

After hearing this, Jia Min had no choice but to give up.

Lin Rui is used to jewels and jade. Although jade pendants are good, they are not uncommon after all. He has a box for himself, so he doesn't care as much as Jia Min. After hearing what they said, he carried Daiyu and Yu Heng into the room. A servant girl had already prepared tea and fruits, and as soon as she sat down, she lowered her head and looked again. Daiyu had closed her eyes and slept peacefully, but she still held the jade pendant tightly in her hand.

Yu Heng sat next to him, looked down at Daiyu seriously, and asked doubtfully, "Why did you fall asleep? Don't you like it?"

Lin Rui smiled, lowered his voice, and said: "My sister is still young. I heard from my parents that children at my sister's age are like this. Only after eating and sleeping can they grow up properly. "

Yu Heng couldn't help reaching out to touch Daiyu's small face, and said enviously, "I don't have a younger sister, nor do I have a younger brother."

Lin Rui was startled when he heard the words, and said with a smile: "The younger sister who became a monk in Panxiang Temple is not from our Lin family either. Her lay family name is Su, but she is still my younger sister, and the same is true for the younger sister of the Zhen family."

Yu Heng's eyes lit up, and he looked at Daiyu very hotly.

After returning from Yu’s home, Jia Min arranged for Daiyu to rest, only listening to Lin Rui talking about what happened with Yu Heng in the inner hall today in detail, and said: “Brother Yu likes his sister, he said he has no brothers and sisters, but I have already talked to him Having said that, you can treat my sister as his sister, just like I treat Sister Su and Sister Zhen as my sister, but you are not allowed to take it away from our house, otherwise I will beat him."

Jia Min couldn't stop laughing, and said: "You are so young, you have to learn from your father."

As he said that, he couldn't help sighing a few times, and said: "Master Yu's family is a poor child. It seems that there are uncles and no uncles. There are about ten brothers, sisters, nephews and nieces in the uncle's family, but they are not close."

Lin Rui frowned and said, "It's only because Brother Yu's grandfather, parents, brother-in-law and his family are gone? Are you saying that he is the lone star of Tiansha?"

Jia Min nodded and sighed again.

Lin Rui shook his head, disapproving in his heart, Lin Ruhai didn't believe this, and he, like Jia Min, didn't believe it very much. He believed that his father would scoff when he found out, so he became more and more friendly with Yu Heng. When he set off for Yangzhou City the next day, he and Yu Heng rode horses outside the car together, talking and laughing happily, very comfortable, of course, he said and Yu Heng listened.

Seeing Mrs. Yu from the window in the car, she became more and more joyful, and looked at the Lin family more and more.

But Daiyu was sitting on the brocade carpet at Jia Min's feet, and there were two brocade boxes in front of her, one of which was the jade ring, gold peiming, jewels and other things she got recently, there were about thirty or fifty pieces, gorgeous and eye-catching, the other was It was empty, so she grabbed the things from the previous box and threw them into the empty box. Listening to the crisp impact of these things, she was overjoyed.

The Lin family's ancestral house had been cleaned and arranged properly. Jia Min invited Mrs. Yu's grandparents to the guest house. Mrs. Yu saw a dozen or so small and exquisite houses, with everything from the front hall to the back, and there were men who did rough work. The girl and mother-in-law waited, and they were very satisfied.

Mrs. Yu was in a hurry to see Master Lingtai, and Jia Min had to see Miaoyu first, so after a short rest, she went to Panxiang Temple to pay her respects.

Because Lin Ruhai never believed in monks and Taoists, although their Lin family occasionally offered incense, it was very rare, and they would rather save the money for incense to help the victims.Lin Ruhai often said that monks and Taoists are all pure cultivators, so what is the use of money?Since it is said to save sentient beings, partial births are used to paint temples and decorate golden statues. It can be seen that only worshiping gods and Buddhas has forgotten the suffering beings.

Panxiang Temple is located in the middle of the mountain, among the plum trees. At this time, the plum blossoms are all over the mountain, spewing rouge, and the fragrance deceives Lanhui. The old lady Yu couldn't help but praise: "The beautiful plum blossoms are only here, so that there is no smoke and dust." Qi."

Jia Min laughed and said, "It's also because I don't get caught in the world of mortals."

While talking and laughing, we arrived at the entrance of Panxiang Temple, and saw the solemn atmosphere, very solemn, because we had sent people to post the post first, and now everything has been cleaned up, a group of nuns led people to welcome them into the mountain gate.

Old Madam Yu chuckled, and said to Jia Min in a low voice: "They all say that all living beings are equal. I never thought that Buddhism also pays attention to high and low. It doesn't matter whether it is a Buddhist temple or a Taoist temple in the capital, as long as there are female relatives from various families performing safe offerings, they should be sent early." People clean up and drive out all the pilgrims, so as not to bump into the nobles. I only thought that Panxiang Temple can be exempt from vulgarity, but it is not."

Before the words were finished, someone chanted a Buddha. A middle-aged nun was standing at the door of the hall, and beside her was a little nun with hair who was practicing cultivation. She was about seven or eight years old. She is a stunning beauty.

The middle-aged nun has a thin figure and a plain face. Although she is dressed in black and straw sandals, she has an air of ecstasy. Her eyes flicked across the faces of the group of people, but there was no trace of anger. She said with a smile: "Old man People say it is reasonable, but although the gods and Buddhas are great, they are no match for the secular dignitaries. If you are not careful for a while, there are many times when temples are destroyed and statues are smashed. I would rather respect them."

Old Madam Yu couldn't help laughing when she heard the words, and said, "I'm ashamed, it's better if Master made it clear."

The middle-aged nun said: "The old lady came here not far away. The poor nun has already set up a vegetarian meal and has been waiting for a long time."

Old Madam Yu and Jia Min were both taken aback, Jia Min smiled and said, "It's strange to say that Master has a clever plan, it's really good." I haven't seen her for some years, but I still recognize it as Miaoyu, so I guess that this nun is the abbot of Panxiang Temple, the master of Lingtai.

Lingtai nodded and smiled, looked at Jia Min suddenly, full of surprise, and said for a long time: "Poor nun Lingtai, Mrs. Lin has been hearing for a long time, but I will see you today, please come in!"

After entering the hall for a while, they went straight to the meditation room at the Lingtai and sat on the futons below.

Lingtai ordered Miaoyu to cook tea for everyone in person, looked at Yu Heng quietly, and said straight to the old lady Yu: "The poor nun knows what the old lady is here, don't worry, the old lady is so precious, it is a must." The talent who entered the Lingyan Pavilion is not the so-called lone star of the gods, it is just a coincidence in the world, once the world says it, it becomes true, and it has nothing to do with him."

For many years, the world has said that Yu Heng has a hard life and secretly refuses to get close to Yu Heng, even his children and grandchildren. Although Mrs. Yu is dissatisfied in her heart, everyone says so, and Yu Heng becomes more and more withdrawn because of this, otherwise she would not I traveled thousands of miles here for my grandson, just to let Lingtai see him, think of some good words, or resolve it, I never thought that Lingtai would have such words, I was really overjoyed, and tremblingly said: "Is what the teacher said true? My grandson Isn’t it some kind of Raoshizi Tiansha’s lone star?”

Lingtai smiled and said: "Amitabha, monks don't tell lies."

The old lady Yu trembled with joy, tears fell like rain all of a sudden, she took Yu Heng's hand, choked up and said, "I just said, my grandson is so smart, why is he like what they say? You know me The preface is true."

Jia Min and the others hurriedly persuaded: "With the teacher's words, the old lady should be happy, why are you crying instead?"

Mrs. Yu turned her head to look at Jia Min, and said, "I'm happy. You are far away in the south of the Yangtze River, and you can still hear some, let alone the capital? Nine out of ten people said that about Heng'er, even Heng'er's two uncles." My brothers, sisters and nephews all keep away from him because of this, for fear of getting bad luck, if not for my old lady still alive, I would come to pay my respects every day, I am afraid they would not even enter the house!"

Jia Min smiled and said: "It's all right now, Master Lingtai said so, Mrs. Ming'er will go back and slap their mouths alive."

Old Madam Yu still had tears on her face, but she nodded with a smile when she heard this, and said, "Exactly. I've already made up my mind, I'll go back tomorrow, and I don't care about any auspicious days, I have to let them all know about Master Lingtai. Comments are not allowed."

Lingtai drank a sip of tea next to her, watched Lin Rui ask Miaoyu, then held Daiyu to show her, after listening to what she said to the old lady, she smiled slightly, and said: "People live in the world, they only care about their hearts, it's too unexpected Things, but inferior vehicles, who can live a lifetime for whom? Just as the old lady said when she entered the door today, Buddhism says that all living beings are equal, but life insists on classifying pilgrims. This is the empty door, the pure land It's not clean. As for today's approval, if the old lady came here a year ago, the poor nun would not have dared to speak like this, but now that the poor nun has come here, the poor nun is already sure. The root cause has changed, not to mention the overall situation. ?”

Everyone heard half-knowledge, with doubts on their faces.

The Lingtai turned to look at Jia Min, and suddenly sighed softly, saying: "The fate of Miaoyu, a disciple of the Weidao Poor Nun Temple, seems to be different. The original reason is here. The word fate is simple to say, but it is mysterious. It has been changed with heart. Once the life is over, the fate will change accordingly, and it is not static. Madam is destined to die without children, but now she has both children, this is a change of fate, a change of luck."

Jia Min was taken aback immediately, and hurriedly said: "Where did the master say this? Forgive me for being stupid, but I don't understand."

Mrs. Yu was delighted with Lingtai's comments to her grandson, but she never lost her composure. She was surprised when she heard the words, and looked at Lingtai in a daze, not knowing why she said that. Could it be that someone changed Jia Min's fate?

Lingtai counted the rosary beads in his hand, and said slowly: "Madam, there are people around me who understand. The secret must not be revealed. What the poor nun said today has already leaked the secret. Madam, don't ask any more questions. As far as Madam is concerned, this life is safe and happy. That's enough. However, the poor nun feels that his knowledge is shallow, and after all, he knows very little, so I would like to meet this understanding person for a while."

Jia Min couldn't help laughing and said, "Who knows anyone? Even if there is, I don't know."

Lingtai nodded and said, "That's not bad."

At that time, Daiyu was surrounded by Lin Rui, Yu Heng, Miaoyu and others, smiling like a flower, holding on to the rosary given to Miaoyu by the Lingtai, Miaoyu showed anxiety on her face, and said in a low voice: "Good sister, rosary Don’t be naughty, can you let go? I’ll see you off later.” Then she ordered the little maid to exchange for rosary beads a string of round, even, and the same size pearls.

Looking at the string of pearls, Daiyu let go of her hand with a smile, but only heard a few ding-dongs, and saw that the beads were broken, and the pearls fell to the ground one by one with a clanking sound.

Seeing this, Miaoyu turned pale.

Jia Min was also taken aback, quickly patted Daiyu lightly, and said, "It's all right, what are you doing pulling your sister's beads?"

Daiyu squished her mouth, twisted her head, buried her in Lin Rui's arms and ignored it, without even touching the Nanzhu string.

However, Lingtai glanced at Miaoyu and said, "It's just a string of rosary beads. There are better poor nuns. Don't worry about it, madam, and don't worry about Miaoyu. The poor nun originally said that you are destined to enter this door, but now It seems that it is not allowed. Also, this girl has extraordinary background, although she is a grass and trees, she does not need to be destroyed by wind and rain in this life, let alone you?"

When everyone heard this, they were stunned and became more and more puzzled.

The Lingtai was auspicious for Daiyu for half a day, then turned her head and folded her hands together, and said to Jia Min: "This girl has an extraordinary background, and she is not alone in the world. Now that she has reached this point, she is the way of heaven, and there is no need to look back on the past."

As he spoke, he let out a long sigh, and said, "Where is the wish of the crimson bead by the Sansheng stone, against the golden and jade fate in the world?"

Without saying a word, he got up and left, walking slowly without looking back.

Seeing the Lingtai leave, Miaoyu looked at the crowd, gave a salute, and followed.Jia Min originally came here for her this time, seeing the situation, she didn't know what to do, she just comforted herself in her heart, anyway, she would stay in Gusu for a few more days, and would come to visit Miaoyu again, so she was not in a hurry, Fang Giving up on this, seeing the little nun come to treat her to a vegetarian meal, Fang helped old lady Yu to go.

Mrs. Yu got what she wanted today, her face was radiant, her conversation became brighter, and her laughter continued.Early the next morning, he hurriedly took Yu Heng away from Jia Min and returned to the capital.

Although Lin Rui and Yu Heng didn't get along much, they hit it off right away and were extremely reluctant to part.

Mrs. Yu said with a smile: "When your father is promoted to the capital, you will meet more often. Besides, if you imitate your father with your own ability, you can stay in the capital even if you win three yuan. Are you afraid that you won't see him?"

Jia Min smiled and said a lot of words of comfort, the two had to exchange gifts and agreed to have a martial arts competition next time.

But when Mrs. Yu brought her grandson back to Beijing, Lin Ruhai met an old friend on the way, so he couldn't help but invite him to meet him on the boat. Yue, because Emperor Xuankang cared about the old minister, suddenly remembered that Gu Yue had let go of his foreign post, so he announced to go to Beijing, promoted him to a fourth-rank bachelor, and was bringing his family to Beijing.

Lin Ruhai didn't see his wife, but only saw his two sons, asked a lot of questions, and gave him gifts.

Gu Yue chuckled, raised his glass and said to Lin Ruhai: "That year I won the Jinshi, but you went south because I was born. I was very sad, and then there were many accidents in my family. Let it go, we never met again."

The corruption and bribery case of Gu Yue's elder brother was revealed. Emperor Xuankang was furious and beheaded him long ago. His wife and children were either sold or exiled. Now the Gu family is supported by Gu Yue alone. Lin Ruhai understood in his heart and sighed: "My family is small, so there are fewer worries. It's hard for you. But now that you've woken up, the old Xiangguo should rest in peace under Nine Springs."

Gu Yue sneered, and said: "Although I have closed my eyes now, how about some time ago? My father put so much effort into the eldest brother, but he did such a thing that humiliated the ancestors, and even the whole family couldn't hold their heads up. Whether I'm in the capital or outside, even if I work hard, I'm still suspected by outsiders, thinking that my elder brother is like him, whether he is a corrupt official like him! I don't know if my father scolded him when he saw him .It is also a sage Gu Nian veteran, otherwise how could I be promoted."

As he spoke, he looked at the two sons who stood by and said, "We can't let them repeat the same mistakes."

One sentence frightened the two sons and hurriedly bowed to answer.

Lin Ruhai smiled and said: "I see that your son is an honest and responsible person. Don't do this. What does your brother have to do with your son? It's good to be educated, hard and soft, don't be too strict. Backfired."

Gu Yue also smiled, and said, "Where's your son? Didn't you come to Beijing this time to gain some insight into the capital? That's right, it's been a long journey, so it's not tiring. I still remember when we were in Jinling more than ten years ago, you saved a dowry for Ling Qianjin , Now you have a daughter? Don’t forget to tell me when you leave the cabinet in the future. I promised to add makeup to Ling Qianjin. Although my family is not as good as before, when we separated, most of it was given to the elder brother. The third brother and I waited There are only a few people, but the dowry for Lingqianjin has been prepared long ago."

Gu Yue is an official in Guangdong, thousands of miles away, and doesn't communicate much. Naturally, he doesn't know that Lin Ruhai has a daughter. He only remembers Lin Rui who lived in the middle of the capital, so it is inevitable that he will laugh while speaking.

Lin Ruhai said with a smile: "You put it away, don't give it to others, it will come in handy after ten years or so."

Hearing this, Gu Yue hurriedly said, "How old is Ling Qianjin this year? I haven't seen it yet! I think it was born after you returned to the South?"

Lin Ruhai nodded slightly, and said, "It's one year old now, and it's Huachao Festival's birthday."

Gu Yue burst out laughing, almost spit out a sip of tea, and said, "Why are you so young? It's only one year old! Fortunately, you asked me to keep my things. When that day comes, I don't know how old it looks like."

Lin Ruhai complacently said: "What's the matter? It's just a piece of rag. What you give is also your heart. I don't mind it."

Gu Yue said: "You don't think so, but I can't do it!"

Picking a fruit and sending his son out, Fang asked: "Strange people say that the world is cold and cold. I still remember that after my father passed away, my eldest brother had an accident. I have experienced all the ups and downs. In the past few years, I have rarely heard anything in the capital. Xin'er, you are the most well-informed person, if you have any rare things to tell me, so that I can know in my heart, I don't trust many people in the capital."

Lin Ruhai thought for a while, then told him what she knew, and didn't hide it from him.

Gu Yue was originally a laid-back person. He has restrained himself a lot in the past few years as an official. In the future, he will walk in front of the imperial court again, so it is better to understand Emperor Xuankang's thoughts. Listening to Lin Ruhai's eloquence, most of them are That's it, I can't stop nodding.

Gu Yue closed his eyes and asked, "In other words, His Royal Highness has changed a lot now?"

Lin Ruhai nodded, he didn't expect His Royal Highness to be willing to give up the money and power that he had obtained, and he really admired it in his heart.

However, most of these have nothing to do with him. It seems that he can be re-elected as Yanzheng in Yangzhou. In this case, why bother to get involved in these matters and let them fight on their own. I just need to meet Emperor Xuankang. When I returned to the south, I still dealt with salt affairs, stayed away from the capital, and enjoyed raising my children in my spare time.

Lin Ruhai was startled suddenly, Lin Rui came unexpectedly in this life, but Daiyu arrived as promised, and the youngest son is already there, right?Lin Ruhai calculated the time. In her previous life, Jia Min found out that she was pregnant shortly after Daiyu turned one year old. Now that she has come to the capital, she doesn't know if she has invited a doctor. If so, she should take good care of her.

With one daughter and two sons, in this life, Lin Ruhai really deserved his ancestors.

Not to mention how much he misses Jia Min, how he misses his children, Gu Yue accompanied him along the way, often reciting poems in front of the river, painting on the mountains, the two of them are very congenial in temperament, although the schedule is in a hurry, day and night, they are still happy and at ease. Then we arrived in the capital.

The news of Lin Ruhai's entry to Beijing cannot be concealed from others, and people from the old Lin family house have come to pick him up.

Zhang Dahu specially asked for leave. Zhang Dahu is currently working in the imperial court. Emperor Xuankang liked his bravery. He was promoted to Wupinlong forbidden captain at the beginning of the year. He also knew Zhang Dahu's life experience, so he was more satisfied with Lin Ruhai. He had already taken such a talent under his door as a servant, but he devoted himself to teaching Zhang Dahu and helping him to go to Beijing to take part in the military test. Fake, good life to accompany Lin Ruhai
