The Ring of Red Mansions is far from the heart

Lin Hai looked Jia Lian critically up and down, then picked up the tea on the table, took a sip, and said, "Show the second master Lian a seat!" Then his servants led Jia Lian to sit down.

Jia Lian clearly saw a boy about eight years old sitting at the bottom of Lin Hai, but he didn't look like a guest, so he was surprised.

"My nephew has not yet congratulated my uncle on his recovery. My uncle is blessed with great blessings, which is the blessing of our family, Jia Lin." After all, Jia Lian is a young man who has changed his mind. He immediately adjusted his mood and tried his best to deal with Lin Hai, who was like an old fox.

Lin Hai smiled lightly: "Thank you Lian'er for remembering me. I know my body well. I also thank the old lady and the second wife for taking care of me at the beginning. Fortunately, I met the Wuming Taoist priest who is kind and caring. Otherwise, the old man would not be here now." I really don't know where I am. When Lian'er returns to Beijing, please thank the old lady and the second wife for me."

Jia Lian listened, the tone of the words was wrong, but he really didn't dare to object.The aura of Lin Hai's third-rank official is fully open, but it's not something that Jia Lian can resist one or two.I had no choice but to agree.

Lin Hai went on to say: "The old man has fully recovered, and Lian'er can go back to Beijing with peace of mind. By the way, help the old man report the recent events to the old lady."

Jia Lian wanted to cry but had no tears in his heart. Did he come for nothing?right?right!

Lin Hai didn't give Jia Lian a chance to speak, and continued: "Yu'er's mother passed away that day, and because there was no elder in the family to teach her, the old lady repeatedly wrote letters saying that she would be raised in Beijing. It is a rare reunion today, but I want to leave Yu'er under my knees for the joy, and I hope that when Lian'er returns to Beijing, he will say a few good words for the old man in front of the old lady. Besides, I, the five generations of the Lin family, who have been scholars for many generations, are here In the hands of the old man, although it is not as good as the predecessors, it is still not enough to be useless, so the maid named Zijuan that the old lady bestowed on Yu'er, please also ask Lian'er to bring it back with her."

Jia Lian came out of Lin Hai's study in a daze. The second master Lian, who was known as an organic change, was hit hard. When he returned to the courtyard where he was staying top-heavy, he realized that all his luggage had been packed. , neatly stacked in the middle of the yard, as if waiting for the owner to go out.

Seeing Jia Lian coming, Lin Ping, another steward, went up to call Qianer and said, "Second Master Lian, our master said that today is a good day for traveling. Let the young ones come and help Second Master Lian. The luggage has been packed, and the big boat to Beijing has been prepared, Second Lord Lian can leave right away." However, he didn't let Jia Lian enter the yard again, and directly invited the guest outside the mansion to be sent to the carriage politely. , and then send people away.From the beginning to the end, Jia Lian was in a state of wandering away.

Has this second master of the Jia family ever been treated like this?Although Ningrong and Rongfu are different now, isn't Jia Yuanchun now a concubine?He really couldn't figure out why this uncle of the Lin family made such an obvious move to offend the Jia family?

But Jia Lian didn't understand that although Jia Yuanchun was named a virtuous concubine, he had no father or brother to help him in the previous court. It was okay for a year or two, but after a long time, he would not be the opponent of those concubines.The more honored and favored she is now, the sooner she will die in the future!

Not only Jia Lian didn't understand this point, but even Jia Mu didn't understand it, otherwise she wouldn't have done something like poisoning Lin Hai, which was equivalent to self-destructing the city wall.

When Jia Lian was invited out of Lin's residence, a small sedan chair in green clothes followed outside the west corner of the Lin family's house, and in the sedan chair was the Zijuan girl who was put under house arrest.Zicuckoo looks fine now, but I don't know what will happen when I get to the river.

Zijuan was very wronged, thinking that she was loyal to Daiyu and had never made any mistakes. Who would have thought that Miss Lin would send her back to Jia's mansion after returning home.For nearly a month, she was locked in that small courtyard. No one spoke, and she couldn't send any news. She was going crazy. Now that she finally came out, she was thinking about how to talk about the Lin family in front of Second Master Lian. I don't know the etiquette.And the matter of Mr. Huan!How could a bastard climb onto the head of Second Master Bao!Sure enough, it was raised by a young woman, who doesn't know how to be polite!

When they arrived at the pier and boarded the boat, the boatman quickly sailed the boat to the center of the river. Zijuan was about to go to the cabin where Jia Lian lived, when suddenly she became dizzy, and the whole person was under the eyes of everyone, unconscious.

Jia Lian also wanted to ask her about the matter, but who knew that this person became ill so suddenly?Jia Lian said it was unlucky, so he had no choice but to ask the old doctor Jia Mu asked to bring to see Zicuckoo.As a result, the old doctor struggled for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion that "this girl is in good health and has no symptoms. I think she is tired. If she sleeps, she will recover tomorrow."

Jia Lian waited and waited until the flowers withered, and Zicuckoo did not wake up until she arrived in the capital and returned to Jia's mansion. Zicuckoo was still a "sleeping beauty", but she was already too thin.

Jia Lian went back to Rongguo Mansion, and first went back to his yard angrily.At that time, Wang Xifeng and Ping'er were having dinner. When they saw Jia Lian coming back, they immediately got up to meet him.Ping'er took Jia Lian's cloak and hung it aside, then went out to wash Jia Lian's face with water.

Wang Xifeng in the room stepped forward to give Jia Lian a blessing, and said in his mouth: "The uncle of the country is very happy, and I greet the uncle of the country."

Unexpectedly, Jia Lian didn't give a smile, and directly reprimanded: "What kind of uncle, the queen's brother is the real uncle. No matter how high the concubine is, she is just a concubine! What's there to be happy about?" !"

When Wang Xifeng heard this, it was wrong, and she didn't want to immediately: "Where did the second master get angry, and came back to vent his anger on me? Don't even look, are we the masters who can vent the anger of the second master! Second master After taking a trip to Weiyang, not to mention a bit of Jiangnan style, but to learn the unsightly way of beating his wife!"

"You!" Jia Lian was so angry that he shook his hands and left directly behind the curtain.After getting out of the courtyard gate, I happened to meet the mandarin duck who came to deliver the message.

"Second Master Lian, where is the old lady asking for Second Master?"

"Sister Yuanyang, I'll go right away." Jia Lian was the first and the second eldest, what kind of second master did he think of himself as the second master of the Jia family?

Arriving at the "Rongqing Hall" where Jia's mother lived, Jia Lian bowed respectfully.In the hall, Jia She and his wife, and Jia Zheng and his wife were there.When Jia Mu saw that Jia Lian had come by herself, she immediately asked, "Where's Yu'er? Where's my Yu'er? How did I tell you back then? I told you to bring people back properly. That's how you do things." ?!"

Jia Lian lowered his head and didn't dare to argue. After Jia's mother had scolded enough, he explained: "When I arrived at Lin's mansion that day, Uncle Lin was indeed seriously ill. Cousin Lin was by my uncle's side to take care of the illness, and my grandson was also there. Lin's residence. Unexpectedly, half a month ago, Uncle Lin suddenly asked his grandson to talk. Only then did he find that Uncle has recovered completely. Uncle said that due to the separation of father and daughter over the years, Uncle misses his daughter and is sick. The younger sister stayed in front of her to fulfill her filial piety, so... the grandson had to come back by himself."

"What?!" Jia's mother exclaimed, she didn't believe what Jia Lian said at all, but the person who gave her the medicine said that the medicine had no cure, and if it touched Immortal, it would make her sick.But according to what Lian'er said, Lin Hai is completely healed?How can it be? "Speak clearly to me!"

Jia Lian explained what happened one by one. After hearing this, Jia's mother just fell down on the couch in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking. "You said, Miss Lin's eldest maid, Zijuan, was also sent back? Where is the person?" After a long time, Mother Jia asked again.

"That Zijuan has fainted since he got on the boat, and he hasn't woken up yet. The doctor who my grandson took to see him only said that he is healthy and not sick. I just don't know why he still can't wake up?" Jia Lian said cautiously.

Mother Jia didn't even have the energy to get angry, she waved her hand, and said to Jia Amnesty: "Boss, take the post and ask someone to invite the imperial physician to show that girl. I will find the imperial physician Wang who often comes to our house. "

Jia Amnesty was ordered to ask the imperial physician not to mention it.Mother Jia was worried, so she went to the house where Zicuckoo was placed to see people.

At this time, Zijuan was a hundred and eight thousand miles away from when she first left Beijing. When she left Beijing, she was still a beautiful girl in her prime, but now she has become a skinny and skinny girl.

Even though Jia Mu was prepared, she was still taken aback when she saw Zicuckoo.Is this still the proud maid next to Lin Yatou?Worse than that skinny village woman.

"This...how could this be?! Lian'er, explain it to me clearly!"

Jia Lian was standing outside the door. Hearing what Jia Mu said, he had to repeat what Lin Hai said at that time and what happened after Zijuan boarded the boat.

Jia's mother fell into deep thought, "You said...that day when Zicuckoo boarded the boat, she walked up by herself? Besides, girl Zicuckoo was put under house arrest in the Lin Mansion, and you never heard of it?"

"Go back to the old lady, that's exactly the case." Jia Lian was also very frustrated. He didn't know what happened under his nose, which was really embarrassing.

Soon, Doctor Wang came over.All the women hid behind the screen, only Jia Mu was sitting on a small stool beside the bed.

Physician Wang came in first, saw the old lady sitting there, quickly lowered her head, and begged for mercy: "Excuse me, old lady, Xiaosheng didn't expect you to be here all the time."

Mother Jia waved her hand impatiently and said, "That's all right, all right, I'm old too, so I don't care about that. Hurry up and see the patient."

Seeing this room, Imperial Physician Wang thought that the frail niece of Jia's family was ill, but after feeling the pulse, she realized it was not.It's just that the pulse pattern was very strange, and Imperial Physician Wang couldn't figure out what was going on for a while.

"What's the matter, tell me quickly!" Mother Jia couldn't wait any longer, she wanted to ask Zijuan exactly what happened in the Lin Mansion.In Zijuan's situation, she obviously knew something, and she was under the dark hand of the Lin family, and she was not allowed to speak.

Doctor Wang thought about it and said: "This girl is not sick, and even her body is healthier than ordinary people. Old lady, is there a mistake?"

Jia's mother didn't know what to say anymore, after thinking about it, she didn't care about men's and women's defenses, so she asked someone to lift the curtain and let Wang Taiyi see Zijuan's current appearance.

Now, Doctor Wang was frightened, how could he look like a human being?It's basically a human skeleton.

Doctor Wang looked at Zijuan carefully, but he still couldn't see what was wrong with this man. He only knew that he had followed his way.In the end, Imperial Physician Wang had no choice but to cup his fists at Jia Mu and said, "The young man is not good at learning, so the old lady should hire someone else." After finishing speaking, he turned around and went out without waiting for Jia Mu to speak.

Mother Jia smashed a Ru Kiln tea bowl.
