Lin Ruhai of the Red Chamber Reborn

Mrs. Shen brought her eldest daughter-in-law and daughter out together. Seeing Miss Shen's elegant features and demeanor, Mrs. Gu praised her [-] points in her heart. Although she may not be as beautiful as Sister Feng in appearance, her manner of speaking is ten times better.

When we sat down in the hall, Mrs. Shen ordered the eldest daughter-in-law to take her daughter to make some noodles. Mrs. Gu couldn't help but stood up, thanked Mrs. Shen repeatedly, and said: "Thanks to my wife for helping us, otherwise our family would have offended Nan'an Palace. It's not good with the Wang family, but it's just inevitable that the family's daughter's reputation will be wronged. Although our brother Xun has some talents, how can he be worthy of Miss Shen?"

Ms. Shen is well educated and understands etiquette and righteousness. Madam Gu is far away from the capital, and she has heard that she is really a good wife and mother. However, the old lady of the Shen family is ranked first, and the old master of the Shen family is second. A star and a half.

Mrs. Shen hurriedly took her hand, returned the gift, asked her to sit down, and said with a smile: "Don't be too condescending, what's wrong with your brother Xun? He was hit by Juren at a young age, he really has a father Demeanor, although I didn't participate in Chunwei this year, I will definitely be named on the gold list three years later. By then, I don't know how many people want to pick such a son-in-law who rides the dragon quickly. Today, since you are here, I will not beat around the bush with you , I have really taken a fancy to your Brother Xun."

After hearing this, Mrs. Gu was both surprised and delighted, and said, "How did this happen? What is the status of our family?"

Mrs. Shen said: "What's the matter with your family? It's also the queen of Xiangguo! Although your uncle is in trouble, what does it have to do with you? To tell you the truth, our old man took a fancy to Brother Xun. Our house is here At this level, there is no need to marry a big family, it is just right to marry with your family. Unless, you think I opened my mouth first."

Mrs. Gu hurriedly said: "Madam, please don't say that. For us, this is a happy event that we can't wait for. How dare we dislike it?"

After hesitating for a long time, Mrs. Gu asked: "We just entered Beijing, why did the old man fall in love with the dog? Don't blame Madam, our family has gone through so much, and we are walking on thin ice in the capital, so we have to be more cautious."

Mrs. Shen said: "I didn't say that, our family has come to such a point, we only think about the well-being of our children, and we don't need her to marry into some high-ranking family, but we are wronged instead. Brother Xun from your family is honest, talented, Even if you are born well, how can you not be better than the children of those aristocratic families? Besides, what kind of friendship is your family and our Brother Lin, so why not let us get closer?"

After hearing Mrs. Shen's words, Mrs. Gu felt relieved. Lin Ruhai was upright. Since he was his uncle's family, he was naturally very good. Besides, no one knew how the Shen family lived. If they could get married, it would be great to help their son in the future. Well, their family likes Zhang Dahu, so they naturally understand why the Shen family likes Brother Xun, and they can't help laughing: "That being said, if we have never married, or if we don't agree, or you don't like Brother Xun Son, what should we do then? How can we explain to Princess Nan'an and Mrs. Wang? Don't ruin the reputation of the daughter of the family."

Madam Shen blinked her eyes, giggled, and said: "That's not easy. Just say that you didn't get married because of incompatibility or other reasons. In short, there are many things that can be explained to them. It's bad for the little girl's reputation."

Mrs. Gu couldn't help laughing when she heard this.

Mrs. Shen also pursed her lips and smiled. Shen Yuan is a first-rank, Shen Xue is a second-rank, and the younger uncle Shen Yun is also a third-rank official. Her eldest son also holds an official position and is a real power. Emperor Xuankang was afraid.Therefore, Shen Yuan made the decision, not to marry powerful families, but only to marry those with upright family traditions but no real power.Because of Lin Ruhai, Shen Yuan loved Gu Yue very much, and Gu Xiangguo and Shen Yuan were also friends of the general manager, and they had met Gu Xun before, so they moved their minds.

Mrs. Shen didn't know that Lin Ruhai thought of her previous life. Although the Gu family had recovered in the previous life, the Shen family was indeed a high-ranking and powerful family. The families who married were all high-ranking officials and dignitaries. The whole Shen family is upright and has never endangered the common people. However, the family has done a few unspeakable things over the course of a hundred years. In the end, although the family was not confiscated and the family was destroyed, and Guo Fuxian was involved in it, they were still found by the new emperor, right? , reprimanded several times, and Shen Xue died because of it.

Therefore, when Lin Ruhai visited Shen's house, he told Shen Yuan the four words of high meritorious service. Shen Yuan was Jiang Gui's character, old and hot, and he understood Lin Ruhai's meaning in an instant. After thinking about it carefully, his descendants were indeed powerful. It was too much, and it was difficult to reassure the superiors, so first of all, he abandoned the princely family chosen for his granddaughter and chose Gu Xun.

Mrs. Gu loved Ms. Shen very much, and the Shen family loved Gu Xun very much. The two hit it off immediately. Within two days, Mrs. Gu paid a lot of money to invite an official matchmaker to the Shen family to propose marriage, and the Shen family agreed.

The two families are not ordinary families, and everyone was surprised when the news of the marriage was released.

Princess Nan'an and Mrs. Wang Ziteng saw that the two families were indeed married. They thought that the words they said that day were not intentional. Although they felt unhappy, they could only let it go and go to congratulate the two families in person when they were married in April.

Since her daughter went to Xihai Yanzi, Princess Nan'an has been separated for more than ten years, because she has not changed her temper, and she dare not let her go back to Beijing, she is very worried. Seeing that Sister Feng looks a bit like Huo Can, she is born again. With a bit of love, seeing Mrs. Wang Ziteng worried about Sister Feng's marriage, she acted as a matchmaker herself and chose the eldest son of Niu Jizong, the grandson of Zhenguo Gong Niuqing, named Niu Yaozu.

Zhen Guogong is the head of the eight princes, the most wealthy and extraordinary, stronger than the Rongguo Mansion, Niu Jizong is the third generation, and he succeeded the first-class uncle, and Jia She, the son of Rongguo Gong Jia Daishan, only succeeded First-class generals, Wang Ziteng and his wife are very satisfied.

When Gu Chen and Niu Wang's family got engaged, Lin Ruhai missed his wife and children and didn't know whether Jia Min was pregnant as in his previous life. He was rushing back to Jiangnan day and night, and returned to Yangzhou in less than a month.

As soon as I got off the boat, I saw Lin Rui waiting on the shore with the housekeeper and servants.

Lin Rui strode up, saluted, greeted Ann, and said, "Father is back, is the journey safe?"

After more than two months of separation, Lin Ruhai was very pleased to see the eldest son's handsome eyes and sculpted eyebrows, and his demeanor became more stable. He patted him on the shoulder with a smile, and said, "Don't worry, it's a safe journey. Ask the butler to take care of it." Luggage, when you return to the south for your father, every family will give you gifts, many of which are for the three of you, mother and son."

Lin Rui sent his father to the horse, and said with a smile: "There is another happy event that I haven't told my father. My mother has a younger brother."

Lin Ruhai almost fell off the horse. Fortunately, he had practiced for many years, so he immediately grabbed the rein and stabilized it for a long time. He said happily, "Really? It really is a happy event." Counting the days, it will be almost four months. .Unexpectedly, Lin Ruhai would have two sons and one daughter in this life. Compared with the single lineage of the Lin family ancestors for more than a hundred years, he is really worthy of his ancestors.

Thinking of the extinction of the Lin family in his previous life, Lin Ruhai couldn't help but moisten his eyes.

Lin Rui also got on the horse next to him, and when he turned his face to see the tears in Lin Ruhai's eyes, he only thought that Lin Ruhai was crying with joy. How did Lin Ruhai know that Lin Ruhai had experienced the scene where the Lin family disappeared in smoke, and he was very excited.

Lin Rui said with a smile: "My younger sister can already speak. Although she doesn't articulate much, she is very clear. She can not only call her parents, but also her elder brother. Everyone will say that she is smart. Father, let's go home quickly." , Mom and younger sister are waiting for us at home. When father is away, younger sister looks for father every day, and she must be very happy to see father."

Lin Ruhai was overjoyed when she heard the words, and hurried home, only to see Daiyu standing in front of her, leaning on the threshold, it was already May, and the weather was hot, she was only wearing a bellyband embroidered with five-colored mandarin ducks in white silk and red, and a gauze shirt with lotus root , wearing silver-red cotton gauze trousers underneath, which looked very plain. When he saw Lin Ruhai, he seemed to think of something, his eyes lit up, and he rushed towards Lin Ruhai with his fists clenched. Lin Ruhai quickly hugged her into his arms, frowned and said: "I After going there for more than two months, why didn’t I feel a little heavy.”

While speaking, Daiyu was buried between Lin Ruhai's neck, and she stretched out her small arms like lotus root joints to hug Lin Ruhai and never let go.

Jia Min came out from the inside, her belly was slightly protruding, her face was gentle, she was wearing a lotus-colored long skirt with water sleeves, her hair was tied with a silver hairpin on her head, and a double-petaled pomegranate was on her sideburns, which made her look even more majestic Graceful and magnificent, after listening to Lin Ruhai's words, he said helplessly: "I don't see the master for a day, and I can't eat or sleep well for a day, how can I be serious?"

Daiyu suddenly looked up at Lin Ruhai, and said crisply, "Daddy, Hua'er."

Lin Ruhai was overjoyed when he heard her speak, but he was very puzzled by the flowers in her mouth.

Seeing his puzzled face, Jia Min couldn't help laughing and said: "When the master just came to Beijing, Yu'er looked for the master every day, and she cried so much that she couldn't find it. I coaxed her that the master went to buy flowers for her to wear, and she I actually remembered it. Master managed to go to Beijing once, did you buy it? If not, I will give her the silk flowers that I just made in my dowry."

Lin Ruhai suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "How can I not buy it? Not only are there palace flowers, but also palace embroidered palace blankets and other things. Ask someone to bring in the luggage you brought, and open it for Yu'er to get the flowers."

Then he lowered his head and said to Daiyu, "I bought a lot, and it's enough to give away."

All of a sudden, Lin Ruhai's luggage was brought in from outside. There were more than a dozen boxes. Jia Min ordered someone to open it, and ignored the others. According to Lin Ruhai's words, he first picked out two pomegranate flowers and handed them to Daiyu. .

Seeing Daiyu playing with palace flowers, Lin Ruhai entered the room with Jia Min, and asked with concern, "How many months? What did the doctor say?"

Mentioning her pregnancy, Jia Min said with a smile on her face: "The doctor said yes. It's extremely dangerous to say, I didn't realize it. After the master came to Beijing, I was afraid that the next one would always come. He probably asked me to use the master's post to do things. Also, please ask me to persuade the master to send them more introductions, I am impatient, but coincidentally, Ruier's husband took half a month's leave, and took Ruier to Gusu to visit Miaoyu, luckily the journey was safe and sound, and arrived in Gusu It took a few days to find out, and it took three months to come back from Gusu, only a few days earlier than the master."

Lin Ruhai was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "Why didn't you be more careful? Did you suffer when you came back?"

Jia Min grinned in his heart, and said with a smile: "That's not true. Gusu is very close to Yangzhou, and the official road is used. The car is covered with brocade blankets and mattresses, and everyone is very careful up and down. I don’t feel bumpy. But master, put Yu’er down quickly, go take a shower, wait for the tidying up, I have a lot to say, master will definitely not guess who we met in Gusu.”

Lin Ruhai was full of doubts, seeing her like this, he didn't continue to question her, so he whispered to Daiyu and went to take a bath.

Daiyu sat on the armchair where Lin Ruhai used to sit, frowning and pouting, quite displeased.

When Jia Min and Lin Rui saw each other, they couldn't help laughing. They both knew that she was reluctant to leave Lin Ruhai, but Jia Min was too heavy to hug Daiyu, but Lin Rui didn't have to worry about it. He approached the armchair, squatted in front of Daiyu, and watched She glanced at the palace flower in her hand and said with a smile: "Sister, how about giving the flower to brother?"

Lin Rui naturally doesn't like Gonghua, but just likes to tease his younger sister.

Daiyu raised her eyes to look at Lin Rui, just when Jia Min and Lin Rui thought she was reluctant, she reached out and put a palace flower in Lin Rui's hair, giggling at Lin Rui.

Jia Min and Lin Ruhai who came out of the shower couldn't help but chuckle when they saw the red flower on Lin Rui's head.

Lin Rui blushed, and was about to speak, when Jia Min said with a smile: "We Yu'er also knows that his brother will wear red flowers one day, so I will give you one first."

Lin Rui took off the palace flower and smiled too.

Daiyu tilted her head, staring at the palace flower in Lin Rui's hand, as if she didn't understand why Lin Rui didn't wear it after asking for it.

Lin Ruhai sat back to the original place with Daiyu in his arms, spread out his palms, and a small suet white jade hibiscus flower pendant appeared in front of Jia Min's mother and son. It is extremely delicate, but the size of a little finger, the thin petals are crystal clear, and the stamens are clearly visible. It is hard for a craftsman to have such a skill to carve the water hibiscus so lifelike.This jade pendant is worn with a multicolored silk knotted palace sash, which just hangs on Daiyu's neck.

Seeing it, Jia Min unconsciously said, "It's such a delicate thing, where did it come from?"

Lin Ruhai put it on for Daiyu, and said with a smile: "There is such a piece of good jade among the things the sage rewarded, so I wanted to make something for you. It happened that when we came, an ordinary passenger ship entered the water. Fortunately, we met Fang rescued them all to our boat. Among them was a master jade carver with superb craftsmanship. I asked him to make this pendant on the boat. I got it the day before disembarkation. I also have a jade hairpin for you. A jade pendant for Rui'er."

With that said, he took out a palm-sized brocade box from his sleeve and handed it to Lin Rui who was standing beside him.Lin Rui opened it and saw that besides the jade hairpin Lin Ruhai mentioned, there were also three jade pendants, one big and two small, all of which were exquisitely carved, but much simpler than the jade pendant.

Lin Ruhai got up and picked up the hosta, holding Daiyu in one hand, and inserted the hosta in Jia Min's hair with the other.

Jia Min blushed, her cheeks flushed like a sunset glow, she couldn't help reaching out to touch the jade hairpin on her head, and said: "It's enough for the master to bring Rui'er Yu'er, why bother others to make this hairpin."

Lin Ruhai looked at it for a long time, then sat back again, and said, "Our whole family has it."

Daiyu dropped the palace flower in her hand, grabbed the jade pendant around her neck with one hand, and lit the jade pendant in the brocade box with the other, her eyes rolled around, and she said seriously: "Daddy, brother, brother."

Lin Ruhai couldn't help admiring: "Yu'er is really smart, it's just her father, brother and brother."

When Daiyu heard this, she was immediately very proud.

Jia Min said angrily: "How did the master know that he is a brother? Maybe he added a younger sister to Rui'er Yu'er." She originally thought that Rui'er Yu'er was enough, and never thought that at this age she could There is another child, of course, she hopes that this child will be a brother, and in the future, she and Lin Rui will support each other and pass on the Lin family forever.

Lin Ruhai smiled slightly, and said, "When will my words be inaccurate? It doesn't matter if it's a daughter."

After changing the subject, he asked: "You just said you met someone in Gusu, who is it?"

Jia Min hurriedly told the story of meeting the grandparents and grandchildren of the Yu family, and what Master Lingtai said, and finally said: "I never thought that I would meet them. It really is a rumor, a good boy, but he has become a child." The lone star of the devil in people's mouth, fortunately there is Lingtai teacher, no one will say that in the future. Lingtai teacher also said that our Yu'er has an extraordinary background, and finally said a word, I really don't understand what it means, I think the master knows and understands better."

Lin Ruhai frowned, not caring much about the grandparents of the Yu family, but said: "What did Master Lingtai say?"

Jia Min thought for a while, but she didn't say anything. She only heard Daiyu say: "Crimson pearl wish by the Three Lives Stone is no match for the golden and jade fate in the world." The voice is clear and delicate, and she remembers the words of Master Lingtai quite well.

When Lin Ruhai was not at home, although Daiyu could talk, she seldom opened her mouth. Neither Jia Min nor Lin Rui knew that she had memorized Master Lingtai's words. Over one year old, how did you remember what Master Lingtai said?"

Daiyu stared at Jia Min with her eyes wide open, her face full of bewilderment.She didn't know either, she just remembered it naturally.

Lin Ruhai read it twice, and suddenly remembered Xue Baochai and Jia Baoyu's golden and jade fate. The golden and jade fate that Master Lingtai said must be referring to this, so he knows the three-life stone and the three-life stone. What is the red bead wish?Losing to gold and jade, in Rongguo Mansion, Baoyu often said that he didn't want a good marriage of gold and jade, but a marriage of wood and stone. Daiyu is a wood. , who is Jiangzhu?

Jia Min and the others didn't know the reason for this episode, so they naturally didn't think deeply about it. Lin Ruhai quickly asked, "What else did Master Lingtai say? Tell me carefully."

Jia Min wondered secretly, and hurriedly said the words of Master Lingtai verbatim.

Lin Ruhai couldn't help closing his eyes after listening.

Miaoyu's master was really good. She remembered that she once told Miaoyu that it was not suitable to return to her hometown, so Miaoyu stayed in the capital. In the end, Jia's family fell, and Miaoyu didn't follow her master's instructions to return home, and she ended up like that.What she said to Jia Min all showed that she had seen the change in her family's fate.

Since she said such a thing, then Jiangzhu was referring to Daiyu?

Lin Ruhai suddenly opened his eyes. Could it be that Baoyu and Daiyu really have some background?Daiyu is not alone, presumably Miaoyu and other women are also like this, otherwise why all these beautiful women have gone to Jia's house.

Lin Ruhai looked down at Daiyu, saw her open her eyes and looked back, innocent and innocent, how could she have the pain of dying in tears in her previous life?He slowly tightened his arms, no matter whether they have a background or not, Daiyu is his daughter anyway, the only daughter in two lifetimes, he will never let Daiyu end up like that again.

Daiyu was in pain from being strangled by him, she frowned and said, "Father, it hurts."

Lin Ruhai quickly let go and asked, "Where does it hurt?"

Daiyu pointed at herself indiscriminately. She was young and only felt the pain, and she didn't know where the pain was. Instead, she made Jia Min and Lin Rui laugh. Jia Min said, "What is the master thinking? But I understand Master Lingtai What? I really don’t understand. Master Lingtai also said that he wants to meet this sensible person. I don’t know that our family is divided and works hard. How can there be any sensible person? But Master Lingtai said, our family will be safe and sound , I won’t ask any more questions.”

Lin Ruhai smiled faintly, and said, "I don't understand either, I just think Master Lingtai's Taoism is very deep."

Jia Min smiled and said: "I really admire it. After the old lady of the Yu family left, I went to Panxiang Temple a few times. Master Lingtai doesn't like to see people, but he often sees us. He likes Yu'er the most. Also, master I can't guess who we saw there again."

Lin Ruhai didn't speak, and motioned her to tell her directly that in Gusu, the only way to do this is to meet an old friend.

Jia Min said: "We met the Xing family."

Lin Ruhai was startled, stroked Daiyu's neck, and said, "The Xing family? The Xing family we know is only the Xing family who wanted to marry the mother-in-law's house, but theirs?" Speaking of this, Lin Ruhai also remembered Now, it seems that Xing Xiuyan's family rented the house of Panxiang Temple to live in, so it is said that Miaoyu and her are half teachers.

Jia Min wondered, "How did the master know?"

Lin Ruhai smiled, how could he tell Jia Min that he knew it from his previous life.

Jia Min sighed, with a trace of sympathy flashing across his face, and said: "Fortunately, my eldest brother never married the eldest daughter of the Xing family, so I don't know how to speak. I heard that their family also has some family property, although they are not rich. Expensive, but well-fed and well-fed. Whoever thought it was taken away by the eldest daughter of the Xing family as a dowry, and the remaining brother and sister-in-law took the whole family to rent the house of Panxiang Temple. The elder sister-in-law of the Xing family is fine. , there is a daughter who was born with beautiful makeup and jade, and is about the same age as Yu'er."

Lin Ruhai said: "Who is the Xing family married to? Don't you want to pull your brothers and sisters?"

Jia Min said: "It's very stingy. The daughter-in-law of the Xing family complained that she wished to save up all the money. My aunt passed the Jinshi examination three years ago and became an official outside. Now he has been promoted to the sixth rank. Su took office and got two more sons, but he was unwilling to help them. They had to live in Panxiang Temple. At least the rent in Panxiang Temple is small, so they can do some work to make ends meet."

Mrs. Xing married someone else, and she has two sons?This matter was really unexpected, Lin Ruhai was just stunned, yes, Jia She is very lustful, Mrs. Xing doesn't care about the family in Jia's house, and she has no children to rely on, so she is naturally very stingy, she only wants to save money, but now she is married and has children Why are you still so stingy?

Then I heard Jia Min say: "However, during the few days I was in Gusu, the family members of officials from around Gusu came to worship, and I also met the eldest daughter of the Xing family who has left the cabinet. She is gentle and demure, not like what the daughter-in-law of the Xing family said. I found out later that Xing Zhong and his wife are drunk people with bad tempers. The remaining three girls and brothers who have not left the cabinet are not decent people. His younger brother is proficient in eating, drinking, whoring and gambling. The Xing family has long since fallen. , how can there be any personal belongings, only a little money is left, because Miss Xing married an official family, so Fang took it with her."

Lin Ruhai smiled and said: "How do we know about their family, maybe Miss Xing really treats her brothers and sisters badly."

Jia Min shook her head and said: "Miss Xing is not wrong, but when she came out of the court, her elder brother already had a family. Since she has an elder brother, how can she control the family property? It is his elder brother who lost his own family. Besides, I haven't heard that Ms. Xing is indifferent to her younger siblings. The third girl who has not left the cabinet now all takes money from Ms. Xing's accompanying room, Wang Shanbao's family. It can be seen that she is not very ruthless. Miss Xing's brother eats, drinks, prostitutes and gambles, and his hands are loose, how can Miss Xing give it to him?"

Lin Ruhai thought for a while and nodded.Indeed, Xing Dequan is really not a good person. He has seen it clearly in Ningguo Mansion for how long he has been messing around with Jia Zhen and others. If Mrs. Xing gives money, it will be nothing but a bottomless pit. Xing Dequan complained again and again, wishing that everyone knew Mrs. Xing's ruthlessness towards them.

Mrs. Xing was not able to marry Jia She to be the wife of a first-class general. Lin Ruhai felt a little guilty. If it hadn't been for their husband and wife to intervene, Mrs. Xing would have been the eldest wife of the Rongguo Mansion at this time. I was much happier in my previous life.

Everyone has their own chances in life, and fate has changed, which may not be bad.

Jia Min didn't have much contact with the Xing family, so he just told Lin Ruhai a joke, and said that Mrs. Xing had a complete husband and son, so she felt relieved. After all, she could marry into the Jia family, but now it's better than following Jia Amnesty. She had such a temperament, after all these years, only Madam Dou persuaded her to change it.

After receiving Lin Ruhai's wind and dust in the evening, Jia Min watched people pack their luggage, while he unpacked and read the letters sent by Lin Ruhai from everyone in the capital, including those from Princess Beijing, Zhao An, Mrs. Fu, etc., of course, there was also Mother Jia of.

Jia Min first opened Jia Mu's letter, and when he saw what was written in it, he couldn't help frowning.

Lin Ruhai was teaching Daiyu with the Book of Songs under the lamp. Daiyu articulated clearly, although her speech was intermittent. When Lin Ruhai taught her to read poems, she could learn a few sentences in passing, but she forgot them in a flash, and just sat in Lin Ruhai's arms. In the room, he was talking about the Book of Songs for a while, and for a while he was grabbing the jade pendant and stuffing it into Lin Ruhai's mouth, very naughty.

Lin Ruhai heard footsteps behind him, turned around and saw that it was Jia Min.

Jia Min put her mother's letter on the dressing table, touched her stomach, and asked, "Master is in the capital, have you seen Baoyu? Mother often praises him in letters, but I don't know what's good or bad."

Lin Ruhai paused for a moment, and said, "He is a very clever child, as clever as Xue Tuan'er."

Jia Min could see Lin Ruhai's every move. Lin Ruhai's tone was so slight, how could she not notice it, she approached slowly, and said with a smile: "We are a husband and wife, what are we hiding from each other? It's my natal nephew who doesn't tell the truth. Tell me, I know it well."

Lin Ruhai said: "I went to Jia's house two or three times, and saw him eat the rouge from the maid's mouth more than once."

This statement did not come from his previous life. When he was in Jia's house, he could not come to the door and leave. Every time he went back after eating at Jia's house. Jia's mother was getting old, and she couldn't look at Jia Baoyu all the time, so it really made him see When Jia Baoyu eats the rouge on the maid's mouth, even in the maid's arms, he always smells the fragrance on the maid's neck.

Jia's mother was very elegant, and all the maids around her were very clean. Baoyu couldn't help but let him do whatever he wanted. As the head of the family, Jia Zheng didn't know anything about it, but everyone below knew it.

This is to hide the truth from the truth. It is said that Baoyu is born with eccentricities. No wonder when he catches Zhou, he only catches the hairpin and hairpin.

Lin Ruhai knew Baoyu's talent and character, but he didn't like it very much. The advantage of Jia Baoyu was that he was particularly outstanding because of the mud in Jia's family.Of course, among secular men, there are few men who respect their daughters' families as much as Baoyu, and they are born simple, although it is only because these daughters are born beautiful, it is also his strength.Now Jia Baoyu is no match for Jia Zhu and Jia Lian. Fortunately, he doesn't like Jia Baoyu, otherwise, such a son-in-law doesn't know how to make his daughter sad.

Lin Ruhai didn't seem to see Jia Min's frown, and said again: "I see that Baoyu loves red the most. In addition to eating rouge, he also loves face powder. I can't tell that he is a man, but he is a daughter. He also loves being with his sisters very much." You gangster, I heard that the place where I live is actually an embroidery room."

Jia Min scolded: "How old is he? Just learn this? How did his mother and second brother teach him?"

Lin Ruhai smiled faintly, and said: "Mother-in-law is very doting, how can others teach? I also said that if you teach well, you will definitely be better than Lianer Zhuer. Unfortunately, no one takes it seriously."

Jia Min said: "When I see Rui'er tomorrow, I have to give some advice. Rui'er will be ten years old, and it's time to gradually understand human affairs, so as not to be instigated by the little girl below, what to eat? Rouge! Baoyu is only two years old, please don’t talk about this kind of behavior, master, it really insults Yu’er’s and me’s ears!”

Although Jia Min was furious, his voice was very gentle, like jade beads falling into an emerald plate.

Lin Ruhai pretended not to know about Jia Mu's letter, and said with a smile, "We are thousands of miles away, so we can't get involved in everything. What are you upset about? Their family has Zhu'er inheriting the family business, which is enough."

Jia Min turned around and took Jia Mu's letter, handed it to Lin Ruhai, and said angrily: "Mother has always been a person with sharp eyes and ears, and now the whole family can't hide her from her old man. I don't believe that Baoyu has such a temper. Mother doesn't know. Since I know, why do you still say you want to be engaged to our family? Who do you think I am? What do you think of our Yuer?"

Lin Ruhai was overjoyed, but surprised on the face: "Mother-in-law wants to be engaged to our family? Could it be Baoyu and Yu'er?" Unexpectedly, Jiamu actually told Jia Min in a letter, so urgent.

Jia Min still had a look of anger on his face, and said: "No way! Yu'er is only a little over a year old this year, so how can it be time to get married? I usually say that it is best not to get married early, lest you lose your temper, or make a kiss However, one party's child is gone, and the reputation of a Kefuke wife has been lost. I was so cautious about Lian'er's marriage, but I was not careful about my own children? In another ten years, I I may not even be engaged to Yuer. I really have nothing to say. I have no other ideas, I just hope that Ruier will marry a good wife and Yuer will marry a good husband. This is all four corners. If Baoyu Well, that's fine, but he was so weird at such a young age, and he sent us Yu'er there to let them do things wrong? Besides, the second sister-in-law and I have never been on good terms, and the master killed their royal family members last year, how could he Don't you hate our family? How can you treat Yu'er kindly?"

After Jia Min entered the door, because Jia Daishan was still alive, the Rongguo Mansion was unparalleled, and she was not a mean person, her mother-in-law was very kind, and she had never experienced discord between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, but she had seen a lot of discord between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law Now, she can see what Jia's mother does when she is dissatisfied with Mrs. Li and Mrs. Wang.Don't say that Baoyu is so stubborn now, even if he is as competitive as Jia Zhu and Jia Lian, he will not marry his daughter to his natal family and let Mrs. Wang torture him justifiably.

Jia Mu said in the letter that Daiyu married into someone else's family, and she was not immune to the grievances of her mother-in-law, Weng Gu. She married Baoyu, and with her grandmother hurting her, others would not dare to bully her, but now Jia Mu has already been in love with her. By the time Daiyu and Jiji are 80 years old, how many years will they be able to protect Daiyu?Didn't it fall into Mrs. Wang's hands in the end?

Jia Min felt startled when she thought of this, her mother's behavior became more and more flamboyant, she didn't know, she still didn't know what to do in the future, how could she send her daughter to such a family.The two ways of doing things are different, even when eating and drinking tea, I have changed after arriving at the Lin family. How can my daughter adapt to it?It's just that Jia Zhu and Jia Lian were brought up by her natal family anyway, and the rest have no room to speak for themselves. Now that she has a husband first, then a son, and then a daughter, how can she put her natal family first in everything?

Daiyu was ignorant. Hearing Jia Min call her name repeatedly, she immediately turned her head to look at Jia Min. She didn't seem to understand why Jia Min was so angry. She frowned, rubbed her ears, and said softly, "Mom, whisper."

Jia Min was taken aback, realizing that her involuntary voice was getting louder, making Daiyu worried, so she quickly lowered her voice, comforted her, and said to Lin Ruhai, "Did mother ever mention this to the master?"

Lin Ruhai put the letter aside, didn't read it carefully, and said: "I never mentioned it, I only praised Baoyu countless times."

Jia Min breathed a sigh of relief, sat on another chair, and said: "I still don't believe what my sister-in-law said in her letter earlier, but the master saw it and said it was true, I don't know if this temper can be accepted Change it. If my mother mentions this matter, the master must not agree. I see Baoyu as if he has not learned well. No wonder the second brother said that he will be a licentious person in the future. Our Yu'er has an extraordinary background. He is smart and handsome. Even if there are no such conditions as the master said, it can't be Baoyu, how can he be worthy of Yu'er. It is said that the family is right, but it can't be too far away. The grade of the master is ten times better than that of the second brother. "

Without saying a word, Jia Min couldn't help sighing, both Jia Zheng and Lin Ruhai started as a sixth-rank official, Lin Ruhai is now a second-rank Lantai Temple doctor, and the real power comes from the third rank, in charge of the salt administration, who knows that Jia Zheng has been in charge for more than ten years I have only been promoted to one rank, and I heard that I am mediocre and not satisfied with my superiors, so I have no intention of going further.Lin Ruhai seldom kept secrets about her official affairs, so she naturally heard about the evaluation of Jia Zheng by others in the official arena, and the evaluation was so low that she couldn't hold her head up in front of Lin Ruhai.

But Lin Ruhai said: "Don't worry, don't I love my own daughter? Ten precious jades are not as good as one of my jades. What I said to you at that time was not a casual joke. To choose a son-in-law for Yuer, you have to let me I am satisfied with the color and color."

Jia Min laughed and said: "Yu'er is still young, it won't be too late for the master to say this again in ten years' time."

The next day, Jia Min read other people's letters again, and he understood the affairs of the capital very well, so he replied to Jia Mu's letter, which only said that Daiyu was still young, and also attached Lin Ruhai's conditions for choosing a son-in-law. , and the rest are just greetings to Jia's mother.Jia Min felt sorry for her daughter, so when she wrote back, she was inevitably a little angry.Jia Min was spoiled and spoiled since she was a child, so she has never been wronged, and her words are more crisp.

Before sending out the letter, Lin Ruhai had read it once, secretly smiled, but sighed again.

If I had remembered Jia Min's evaluation of Baoyu in my previous life, if I had carefully investigated Daiyu's situation when she lived in Jia's house, how could I have agreed to Jia's mother's intention of getting married?Although he resented the Jia family for not treating Daiyu kindly, the bottom line is that he, as a father, was too self-willed and didn't take into account the unpredictability of people's hearts.

The Jia family acted too much, and Lin Ruhai felt that he didn't have to do anything, because he could see their building collapse and the monkeys scattered, so he never planned to do anything from the beginning to the end. Wouldn't it be better to let them suffer on their own?

Lin Ruhai didn't care about these past events for a while, he went to Beijing, came and went for more than two months, accumulated a lot of official duties, and went to the yamen the next day after returning home, inquiring about all the official duties he had while he was away, and After checking the accounts carefully, I distributed some salt notes as usual, and I was busy for seven or eight days before I was free.

When Lin Ruhai was free, he took pleasure in raising his daughter and didn't care about other things. When the subordinate officials and salt merchants came to invite them to a banquet and drink, he didn't like it too much. He had to choose elegant places and go there once or twice. Even though I went there a few times, I was just afraid that they would cause trouble for me, and I didn't want to be too independent from the world.The following salt merchants are very flattering to Lin Ruhai. The first salt class is an important minister, and the re-election is definitely the confidant of Emperor Xuankang. It may be how many years Lin Ruhai can be re-elected. How can you be disrespectful? Good, but it's a pity that Lin Ruhai is very selfless and has never done these things
