Happy Life in the Red Chamber

When the ship arrived in Yangzhou, Lin Fu, the housekeeper of the Lin family, was already waiting at the pier with his people.Seeing Lin Daiyu, she was so excited that she burst into tears: "Girl, you are finally back..."

Lin Daiyu's eyes were red: "Uncle Fu...why did Daddy suddenly get sick?"

Lin Fu wiped away his tears: "Master has been ill for a long time, but he won't tell you..."

Mingxi supported Daiyu: "Miss, don't worry, the master has his own destiny, let's go back first and then talk about it."

Daiyu choked with sobs and nodded, the carriage went straight into Lin's house, and when she got off the carriage, Daiyu couldn't wait to run to Lin Ruhai's yard.

Seeing Lin Ruhai with pale face and purple lips, Mingxi took the opportunity to diagnose his pulse by helping Lin Daiyu.Ming Xi raised his eyebrows, this Lin Ruhai was actually poisoned, and it was a very tricky chronic poison, that is, if he met her, it might not be able to be solved by other people.

Lin Ruhai patted Lin Daiyu's head strenuously: "Don't cry, Yu'er, Daddy is fine, just take care of him later."

Lin Daiyu grabbed Mingxi: "Sister, what's wrong with my father?"

Ming Xi glanced at Lin Ruhai: "If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Lin has been poisoned, it's a chronic poison. Judging from your current situation, the poisoning time has been at least five years..."

Lin Ruhai was taken aback. He was indeed poisoned. He had searched all over the years for a doctor, and the doctor who treated him tried his best to find out that he was not sick, but poisoned, but what kind of poison was it? He couldn't figure it out either.

In his opinion, Mingxi is only in his twenties at most, and he has neither pulse nor interrogation, and he can tell that he has been poisoned at a glance, if it is not because he knows that she came from the capital with Daiyu , he absolutely suspected that her poisoning had something to do with her.

Daiyu looked nervous: "Sister Xiren, you said Daddy was poisoned? Then what should I do to cure Daddy?"

Mingxi knew that Lin Ruhai doubted him, so it was no wonder that if a maid could accurately tell that he was poisoned, everyone would have to doubt him.

She smiled: "This poison is difficult to cure in the eyes of others, but it is not difficult for me. My master mentioned this kind of secret medicine from the previous dynasty when he gave me the medical book. In fact, Master Lin should I also met my master. On the way back, I heard Ms. Lin say that when she was born, there were monks and monks at home, and they were my masters.

When Baoyu was ill, the two of them went to Jia's house and cured Baoyu.They happened to be bumped into by me, and the two of them said they were destined to me, so they taught me some medical books.I was terrified at the time, so the two of them took a piece of jade and slapped me on the forehead, then threw me a few medical books and walked away.

I was also ill at the time, and I had a headache for half a month, and a lot of things I never knew before were stuffed into my head.After digesting all those things in my head, I realized that those were all medical skills, and then I slowly groped for medical books. "

Daiyu was completely brainwashed by Mingxi along the way, and she believed in what she said: "No wonder my sister knows so much, Daddy, sister Xiren is very good at medicine, I cough and take medicine, it doesn't help, I drank a bottle of sister The boiled pear paste is almost ready."

Mingxi was like a smiling tiger, and what he said was heartbreaking: "Master Lin's poison, no one but me can cure it. Anyway, if you die now, you won't live for a few days. It's better to treat a dead horse as a living one." Doctor, let me try?"

Lin Ruhai glanced at Lin Daiyu, still a little hesitant in his heart, he had already made up his mind to die, and the scriptures for the memorial had already been written.Zuo Zuo didn't live long, so he thought of taking this opportunity to clean up the Zhen family.

Mingxi raised his eyebrows: "It's good for Mrs. Lin to have a heart of loyalty to the country, but have you ever thought about what kind of life Miss Lin lived in Jia's house? Once you are gone, she might not live long." It's been a long time. Could it be that Mr. Lin has the heart to cut off the blood of the Lin family with you? Miss Lin, I think you need to have a good chat with Mr. Lin, I'll go out and wait."

Mingxi lifted the curtain and came out from the inner room, Lin Fu kept guarding the outside and heard everything she said clearly.Seeing Mingxi, she said respectfully: "Miss Xiren, this old slave will take you to the guest house first to resettle."

Mingxi waved his hand: "Steward Lin is too polite, I'm just a maid serving the girl, you can just find a room in the girl's yard to put me in."

Just as Lin Fu was about to say something, Ming Xi shook his head: "Second Master Lian is still watching, you can arrange it this way. Butler Lin, you must pay attention to the two stewards who came with Second Master Lian, they are both Second Wife's Confidant, the purpose of coming here is to find out how many people there are in the Lin family..."

Lin Fu nodded knowingly, summoned two servants to whisper a few words, and then let them back out.

Ming Xi returned to the room arranged for her by Lin Butler, and just after drinking a cup of tea, Lin Fu came to invite her again: "Miss Xiren, the master is here to invite you."

Mingxi followed him to the front yard, and as soon as he entered the room, he saw Lin Ruhai with tears and Daiyu choked up and wiping away tears.Lin Ruhai struggled to sit up from the bed, it might as well have a sore throat, and coughed a few times to protrude a few mouthfuls of dirty blood.

Mingxi took two quick steps, pulled out the pearl hairpin from his head, unscrewed the pearl and took out a few shining golden needles from inside, supported Lin Ruhai with his left hand, swished the golden needles with his right hand to seal the big acupoints all over his body, and slowly entered the spiritual energy, the golden needles Humming and shaking.

After the golden needle trembled for half a quarter of an hour, the speed slowly slowed down. Mingxi stretched out his right palm and slapped Lin Ruhai's back a few times. He vomited a few mouthfuls of black blood and passed out.Ming Xi helped him to lie down, pricked ten of his fingers with a golden needle, and black poisonous blood flowed out, and when the poisonous blood from the fingers drained away, the blood gradually stopped.

Ming Xi put away the golden needle, took out a pouch from his bosom, took out a porcelain bottle the size of a thumb, poured out a detoxification pill, stuffed it into Lin Ruhai's mouth, and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Okay, the poison has been detoxified." Yes, but Mr. Lin has been poisoned for too long, and it has caused great harm to his body. He can’t take care of him well after a year or so, and he can’t work as hard as he is now. The girl should advise Mr. Lin to return to Beijing.”

Since Jia Lian arrived in Yangzhou, Lin Fu, the housekeeper of the Lin family, has arranged for someone to accompany him, and he spends his daily life in a very pleasant way.

Jia Lian was originally a womanizer. In the past, Wang Xifeng ruled him in the capital, so he didn't dare to enjoy himself too much when he went out to drink flowers and wine.Nowadays, Gao Renniaofei doesn't have to pay the money himself, so Jia Lian is playing with pleasure.

The two stewards followed him all day, eating and drinking, drunk and dreaming.After playing like this for half a month, not only did Lin Ruhai not die, but his health improved day by day, Jia Lian panicked.

He patted his chest and promised that he would bring back the Lin family's property. When he came, he spent most of the night thinking about it with Wang Xifeng. Although the big head would have to be handed over to Gongzhong, he would not know it. It's not difficult.

Jia Lian had already figured it out on the way here. If he wanted to hide 10 taels, he said that the farm antiques were in a hurry to sell, and the price was kept low.Then he went back and told Wang Xifeng that it was 5 taels, and the other 5 taels became his private money.

The abacus was pretty good, but now Lin Ruhai doesn't look like a person who is about to die. When he first came back, he also looked at it. Lin Ruhai really looked dead, and his life was not long.

Up to now, although he is weak in speaking, his complexion is much better, and he can even get out of bed and walk around.Jia Lian even heard the doctor say with his own ears that Lin Ruhai would recover completely after a year or so of recuperation.

Jia Lian really wanted to cry, but this time, let alone private money, how to deal with business is a problem when he goes back.

Just when Jia Lian was restless and didn't know what to do, Lin Ruhai called him over: "Lian'er, it's hard work for you to send your sister back from thousands of miles. Uncle has recorded this love. I heard from your sister that the family will give you This is 5 taels of silver bills for the Xiande concubine to build a family-friendly garden, which is a little bit of my uncle's kindness.

This small box contains 2 taels of silver notes, which is a thank you gift from my uncle.Lian'er, you are not young anymore, you should think about some things carefully.Having a virtuous concubine in the second room is not a good thing for the first room, especially you!

Knowing that the family cannot live without you, my uncle will not keep you, and your sister will stay first. You go back and tell the old lady that the emperor has allowed me to return to Beijing to report on my duties. After the successor officials arrive, I will hand over the affairs here. I will take your sister back to Beijing, and I will definitely go to pay the old lady well when the time comes. "

Dazed, Jia Lian took the bank notes and led the people back to the capital by boat.After entering the house, I went to greet the old lady first, and the old lady looked behind him: "Why didn't Yu'er come back with you?"

What Wang was worried about was the property of the Lin family. She looked at Jia Lian: "Why are you in such a hurry to come back?"

Jia Lian rubbed his nose and sent the box containing 5 taels of silver bills to Mother Jia: "Old Ancestor, Uncle Lin's health is fine, and he will bring his cousin to Beijing to report on his work in the next year, so I will come back first." gone."

Wang's face turned pale with shock: "There is no serious problem? Didn't you say..."

Jia Lian bit the bullet and said: "When I sent my cousin to Yangzhou, Uncle Lin saw that he was really dying. But maybe after seeing my cousin, he was in a good mood and the doctor treated him carefully, so Uncle Lin's health is getting worse day by day.

When I came back, Uncle Lin had basically recovered. Uncle Lin knew that our family was repairing the garden for Concubine Xiande, so he asked me to bring back 5 taels of silver notes as a token of his kindness. "

Wang was so angry that he almost vomited blood. The Lin family's property was at least a million taels, and now it's all gone. What is the use of 5 taels of bank notes?

She glanced anxiously at Mother Jia: "Old lady..."

Mother Jia looked at Jia Lian: "Your Uncle Lin said he was going back to Beijing to report on his duties?"

Jia Lian nodded: "Yes, Aunt Lin's father told me that when I came back this time, the housekeeper of the Lin family also came to the capital, and he brought people to repair the old house of the Lin family in advance.

From Uncle Lin's point of view, after he returns to Beijing after handing over, he probably will have to wait until the spring of next year, after all, the successor official is still on the way. "

Jia's mother waved her hand: "Lian'er has been exhausted all the way, you should go back and rest first. Feng'er, Lian'er seems to have lost a lot of weight, give him a good make up these days..."

Wang Xifeng responded, and when he returned to their yard, Wang Xifeng couldn't wait to ask him: "What's the matter? Didn't it mean that Uncle Lin was dying? Why did he suddenly get better again?"

Jia Lian sighed: "I'm also wondering, but this trip is not in vain. Here is a 1 tael silver note, which is a thank you gift from Uncle Lin. Feng'er, you can keep it."

Wang Xifeng looked at him: "Are you hiding anything?"

Jia Lian swore: "Good Feng'er, I really don't have one, if I do, let me..."

Wang Xifeng glared at him: "Okay, I'll just ask, do you take it seriously? I'm sorry you don't dare to lie to me, okay, you've worked hard this time, Ping'er, hurry up and serve the chicken soup boiled in the kitchen come over……"

Mrs. Wang was a little flustered: "Old lady, what should I do? There is still a big gap in the garden, so I just count on..."

Mother Jia scolded angrily: "Okay, this is the end of the matter, it's too late to say anything, let's think of other ways, okay, I'm tired, you can use the 5 taels first..."

Mrs. Wang went back angrily and dropped the vase several times, and the fragments of the vase splashed on the hands of Aunt Zhao who was standing aside, making a long cut.

Aunt Zhao clutched her wound and cried like she was about to die.When Jia Zheng heard that she was injured, he rushed over to see her. Aunt Zhao was crying in his arms, and Jia Zheng was very distressed.

Had a big fight with Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Wang was dizzy with anger, what Jia Zheng said was extremely unpleasant, but when Jia Baoyu heard that it would be a long time before Lin Daiyu returned to the capital, she cried and made noises, Mrs. Wang was furious , I was ill for half a month before I recovered.

Mingxi's life in Lin's family was very carefree. After the Jia family left, Lin Ruhai had someone prepare an exquisite guest house for her.After being a maid for such a long time, Mingxi finally lived a happy life where she stretched out her clothes to eat and opened her mouth.
