Reincarnation of Soul Cultivation 2

Chapter 125 Lin Jing of the Red Chamber

Several months have passed, and the people who died during the epidemic have been uniformly limed and disinfected by the government, and then buried deeply.

Those who were still alive were also taken back by various households and resettled. Although they had scars and did not know what would happen to them in the future, they survived.Compared with those who died, they are considered very lucky.

Only those local hooligans and hooligans without family members or masters were all suppressed by the government to mine in the mines in private.This matter was done extremely cleanly. During the epidemic, there was chaos. Most of the officials and people in the city only cared about how many people died in total, and how many people their relatives, friends or servants survived.Naturally, they will not be serious about the life and death of those who have nothing to do with them.

Originally, as long as these local ruffians in the city did not cause major incidents, the government didn't care much.

Without him, this kind of people can't be managed cleanly, and there will be another batch after they are cleaned up.As long as gambling houses, brothels, and loan sharks still need thugs, or those gangsters are still collecting protection fees, such people cannot be banned.

Although these people bullied men and women, they did not commit the serious crime of beheading, so the government naturally couldn't kill them all.But being locked up in prison wastes the government's food, and releasing them after sitting in prison is the same harm to the neighbors.

The magistrate's yamen is not a real master of Qingtian, as long as these people don't offend people who really can't be offended, such as the Zhen family, other officials, or wealthy businessmen and households who have given filial piety to the magistrate, otherwise these people usually bully ordinary people. Common people, the government turned a blind eye and closed their eyes, and they didn't bother to pay attention to them.

But it's different now. These people have scars on their faces and are ugly. It will be very scary to move around on the street in the future.The magistrate is afraid that these people will affect the prosperity of the city. Who knows when Shangguan will come to inspect?Will the emperor come to the south again?The existence of these people will affect his face and political achievements, and will remind others that there was a epidemic in this city once they saw it.In short, people who could open and close their eyes in the past are now only an eyesore to the magistrate.

Therefore, the magistrate simply took these people to the mine and turned them into miners.Mining slaves are very bitter, they work very hard, and they have no chance to leave the mine, and they will work until they die.

Anyway, these people don't have family members or masters to find their whereabouts and complain to them, so it can be said that the magistrate has no burden to do this.

The stewards and servants who have passed the epidemic are basically sent by the masters to farms outside the city. Anyway, working in the farm is not afraid of scaring the nobles.

Even the Lin family is not exempt, continuing to use these people will not only scare the women and children in the family, but also scare the guests when they entertain guests.It is impossible for a decent family to keep these people serving in the mansion.

Among the sick servants of the Lin family, apart from Nanny Liu, there were no confidants of Jia Min and Lin Ruhai.But Nanny Liu and her husband and son all died in the epidemic, and her daughter-in-law was taken away by her natal family to remarry, leaving behind an infant child.Nanny Liu and his wife are both born to Jia's family, and they have no relatives.Her daughter-in-law was going to remarry, and she took the family's money with her before she left, which was obviously unreliable.

Jia Min found a family whose only son had died unexpectedly among the tenants of the Lin family, and gave him as a grandson.One party has a grandson who can provide for the elderly, and the other party has a grandparent who will definitely love the child, which is a matter of mutual benefit.

Lin Ruhai heard Jia Min's handling, and said that she did it properly.

The cloud of the epidemic has completely passed, and the city has gradually returned to its former prosperity.

Lin Ruhai invited an experienced veteran to come and teach Daiyu and Lin Jing how to read.

This old Juren had opened a private school in the past, taught many scholars and a few Juren, and has rich experience in education.It's just that I'm getting older, my energy is low, and I feel that I can't teach a room full of students anymore. I don't want to mislead my children, so I close the private school and live at home.

Lin Ruhai invited him to sit in the hall, and only taught Lin Jing and Daiyu two students.Daiyu didn't have to take the imperial examination at all, that is to say, the old Juren only had to be responsible for Lin Jing's studies.Wang Juren thought the job was good, so he took it.

Lin Ruhai also learned a lesson. Before the outbreak of the epidemic, Jia Yucun let him know and wanted to work hard in his official career.Even if there is no epidemic, Jia Yucun will not stay at the Lin family for a long time.

In fact, Lin Ruhai is not so arrogant that he must find a second-ranked Jinshi to be a teacher for his children.

It's just that Jia Yucun was recommended by someone when he wanted to find a husband for Daiyu.

Lin Ruhai saw that he was a second-ranked Jinshi, so it goes without saying that he was knowledgeable.The reason for dismissal is that he offended the Shangguan because of his madness?This is not a charge of corruption or the like, and it is not too taboo.Lin Ruhai also only thought that Jia Yucun offended people because of his lack of tact.So I invited Jia Yucun to come to my house as a teacher.

At that time, Lin Ruhai didn't think too much, and when he met someone who looked good, he invited him back.Thinking about it now, Jia Yucun is still very young, so he still has pursuits in his official career, and he won't be discouraged and don't want to be an official just because he was dismissed once.Even those young scholars and juren, even if they are forced to teach for their livelihood, they still have to take the imperial examination to become officials.Even if he sits in the Lin family, he will not concentrate on educating Xueheng, and it will not last long.

Always changing to a new husband is not conducive to the education of my sons and daughters.Therefore, Lin Ruhai specially found an old Juren this time, who could teach him until Lin Jing passed the examination of scholar or Juren.

This old Juren has a good reputation. Most importantly, Lin Ruhai heard that he has a good temper and would not beat students easily.

Lin Ruhai is almost middle-aged, so she got this pair of children, even if she doesn't say it, she really loves her very much in her heart.Who would be willing to send a pair of children to an extremely strict husband.Moreover, as Wang Juren got older, he didn't have so much scruples about men and women. After Daiyu got older, she could still study with Wang Juren.

Lin Ruhai was very considerate when asking for a teacher for the second time.

As for Lin Jing's achievement in the examination, Lin Jing must be no longer a naughty boy at that time, and Lin Ruhai will not be so worried when he goes out to study.There is the famous White Deer Academy in the south of the Yangtze River, the official school in the government, and the Guozijian in the capital. They are all places where you can study and accumulate contacts. You don't have to worry about Lin Jing not having a place to study.

As for now, because the Lin family has been passed down for several generations, the Lin family has only one seedling, Lin Jing.Even knowing that there are some private schools with a good reputation in the city, Lin Ruhai is still worried about sending his youngest son to study.

So I still invited my husband to sit at home, so that he and Jia Min can feel at ease.

Although the previous husband was a second-ranked Jinshi, the current husband is just an old man who has studied for many years, but Daiyu prefers the current husband.

Daiyu used to just study with Jia Yucun, and she respected her teacher, but she never took the initiative to ask her husband any questions, and she was not close to her husband.Now facing this gentleman, Daiyu is much more lively, she can ask a lot of questions about poetry and books, and she can also tell this gentleman a lot about her own understanding of reading.

Although Daiyu is very young, she already looks like an older sister. Not only does she study hard by herself, but she also supervises her younger brother's reading and homework.

Daiyu is a girl, and Lin Jing is just over three years old, so they only have half a day of class every day, and there is still a lot of time to play after finishing their homework.

The Lin family is not short of money, but because of the small population, the house behind the government office is enough for a family, so the Lin family did not buy another house in this city to live in.

In order to prevent corruption, the official position of inspector and censor has always been changed frequently. When Lin Ruhai took office, he thought that he would leave after one or two terms at most.Naturally, he would not want to buy a house here and settle down here.

Naturally, the official residence that comes with the government office will not be so magnificent, but it is not shabby either.

What Lin Jing likes most is that there is a pond in the backyard. There are some koi and lotus in the pond, and some weeping willows are planted in the pond. It is a perfect place to enjoy the shade in summer.

For example, now, when Lin Jing woke up from a nap, he directed his girl to move the bamboo mat, bring tea and snacks, and go to the lotus pond to enjoy the shade.

Daiyu went to her younger brother's room to look for him but couldn't find him. After a little thought, she guessed where Lin Jing had gone, so she held a paper umbrella to shade her and went to look for Lin Jing by the lotus pond.

Sure enough, from a distance, Lin Jing was lying on a bamboo pillow, lying sprawled on the bamboo mat, with a thin blanket on her stomach, her two short legs were not honestly crossing her legs, and her feet were still shaking. Trembling, looks very leisurely.

Daiyu looked at Lin Jing, angry and funny, a three-year-old child, like an adult, still crossing his legs.He walked quickly to his younger brother, put the paper umbrella aside, sat down next to his younger brother, and patted his trembling legs, "What does he look like, he doesn't have any manners at all, be careful that he will become bow-legged when he grows up. "

Will it become bowlegged?Lin Jing really has no common sense in this area.Is there any scientific basis?Whether it's true or not, you can't take the risk.

After hearing Daiyu's words, Lin Jing straightened her legs as expected.

When my sister came, Lin Jing stopped lying down, got up and sat down on the bamboo mat, and began to drink tea and snacks.

In the two years since she was born, Daiyu often fell ill and took more medicine than food, which spoiled her appetite and didn't like to eat much.That is to say, after Lin Jing was born, even if he hadn't recovered his memory, the Lingbao Gongde Pagoda brought in his artifact was still operating autonomously.From then on, the health of the Lin family began to improve, and Daiyu gradually stopped taking medicine, and her appetite gradually returned to normal.

Even so, her appetite is not as good as Lin Jing, a strong child.But every time I eat and eat snacks with Lin Jing, Daiyu's appetite will improve a lot after seeing him eating deliciously.

For example, now, seeing Lin Jing eating deliciously, she couldn't help but also ate several pieces of snacks and drank another glass of boiled water.

Naturally, their children cannot drink tea, but even if it is boiled water, Lin Jing still demands the same treatment as adults, put it in a high-quality purple sand teapot, and drink water from a matching purple sand teacup.It looks like a literati drinking tea, but in fact it contains either plain water or honey water.

Since she was born in a wealthy and powerful scholarly family, Lin Jing naturally would not treat herself badly, living a refined life with elegance.

Of course, from Lin Ruhai and Jia Min's point of view, Lin Jing was a villain, pretending to be a little adult.It's just a smile.

In fact, it's just that Lin Jing is willing to enjoy life.

After the snacks were finished, Daiyu began to teach Lin Jing to recite "The Enlightenment of the Rhythm", "Clouds are against rain, snow is against wind, and evening photos are against clear sky. Laihong is to go to swallows, old birds are to singing insects..."

Meeting such a studious and loving sister, Lin Jing had no choice but to study at her pace.

Every time Daiyu read a sentence, Lin Jing also read a sentence.Daiyu has a clear and clear child's voice, and Lin Jing still can't get rid of the childish voice of a child. It sounds really nice by the empty pond.

Lin Jing looked at her sister, and for some reason, remembered that she was originally a fairy grass.And in this world, there are also immortals and demons.

However, due to the scarcity of aura, this is not a world where cultivating immortals is the mainstream. Practitioners in the world can only cultivate a little bit beyond ordinary people, and cannot shake the dynasty based on ordinary people.

Just because the center of this kind of low-magic world is the dynasty and ordinary people, so the world consciousness has many restrictions on practitioners.

The most basic point is to "repair the law and destroy the family".

The so-called cultivation of the law and breaking the family means that those who are really successful in cultivation will inevitably have five disadvantages and three shortcomings.Five disadvantages and three disadvantages refer to a numerology. The so-called five disadvantages are nothing more than "widowed, widowed, lonely, lonely, and disabled". The three disadvantages are simply "money, life, and power".Practice has side effects such as five disadvantages and three deficiencies, and those who practice will inevitably lose their families.In short, it is impossible for practitioners to use their unique abilities to gain power and wealth in the mundane world.

Therefore, people who practice in this low-demon world are mostly monks and nuns who have become monks.

If ordinary people don't know the shortcomings of practice, and they have the opportunity to succeed in practice before they become monks, it is inevitable that the family will gradually decline and even break up.

Lin Jing recalled that in his life as Jia Cong, he didn't quite understand the rules of these worlds, and found that there was a little aura in this world, and he even thought about practicing.

It's a pity that in Jia Cong's life, he didn't have any connections, so he didn't succeed in cultivation, he just knew how to draw some talismans, and he didn't even reach the entry level.

Now that I think about it, I'm in a cold sweat. Fortunately, he didn't get any cultivation methods at that time.

Because he gradually revitalized the Jia family, provided for his parents, and laid a foundation for future generations to be an official, worthy of his status as a son of the Jia family.

If he thinks about the well-being of his family and success in cultivation at the same time, the ending must be very tragic. The loss of a wife in middle age or a child in old age is very likely to happen.

That would be too tortured.

In the world of Dream of Red Mansions, Zhen Shiyin became a monk after enlightenment, and Jia Baoyu also became a monk after enlightenment.Some Taoist monks with scarlet heads, lame Taoist priests, Miaoyu's master who is good at divination, and Ma Daopo are all monks.

This is not alone.

It's just that you can't practice unless you destroy your family. Since you want to practice, you can only destroy your family.

In addition to letting the family die, breaking the family can also become a monk by oneself. This is also a way out, completely breaking the boundaries with the family and severing ties.

Lin Jing has a magic weapon to protect herself, so naturally she doesn't want to become a monk in such a low-magic world.
