[Red Mansion] Raiders of the heir

Lin Wei and Lin Hai listened to Bi Yuan's words, they looked at each other and pondered, but their thoughts were very similar, since Jia's mother was unkind, don't blame the Lin family for being unrighteous, Daiyu can no longer go to Jia's mansion to live.This Mother Jia is really domineering, is it right for everyone to turn around her?Do you really think that his family status in Rongguo Mansion is unattainable, and everyone wants to please him?

On the second day, Lin Wei got up early and came to Rongguo Mansion with the sunset. At that time, Jia Mu's courtyard was still very quiet, only the early-rising mother-in-law was sprinkling water and sweeping the yard. Seeing Lin Wei coming, everyone was surprised. Some surprised.

"Why did Master Wei come here so early? I'm afraid the old lady and Miss Lin are not up at this hour." A woman stopped her work and said a little at a loss, "Mo Ruo, go to the Second Grandma's yard first. Sit down, Second Master Lian went out early in the morning, but there was nothing to do when he went to Yingmao, it seems that Second Mistress should be going back now."

Lin smiled and glanced outside Daiyu's house, then turned around and went to the dining room in the west wing opposite, and said as he walked, "It doesn't matter, I'll just sit here for a while, if there is hot water, please help me Make a pot of tea."

"Yes, yes." The woman hurriedly followed Lin Wei's footsteps to the dining room, and said, "It's just that she wronged Master Wei."

"What's the big deal? My serious Lin family is only relatives in your house, so you don't have to wait outside for me." Lin Wei sat down calmly, with a calm look, waiting for the woman to make a drink. When the tea came, I asked her to go busy without mentioning it.

For a while, the nuns in the yard were tidying up, and the sky was already bright. Lin Wei watched the movement in Daiyu's room opposite while sipping tea. Not long after, Qingyan and another strange woman opened the door and came out one after another. Busy with work, he knew that Daiyu was about to get up, but he didn't move at this moment, and continued to drink tea in small sips.

Before half a stick of incense passed, Lin Wei finally narrowed his eyes as he watched Jia Baoyu approaching from the main house, put the teacup in his hand back on the table, got up and walked out slowly.

Jia Baoyu didn't notice the commotion here, knocked twice outside Daiyu's door, before hearing anyone answering inside, he went in, followed by a slender maid, who just lowered her head and bustled on top of him Go tidy up your clothes.Lin Wei raised her eyes to look at Xizhao, Xizhao nodded and quickly walked two steps to stop her: "Isn't this the second master Bao? Our girl who got up early didn't know if she was up yet, anyway, you are waiting for someone to come out Let me ask, what's the point of going in like this?"

Jia Baoyu stopped for a while, turned around and saw a handsome maid standing aside and looking at him coolly, her eyes lit up, a smile appeared on her mouth, and she said slowly: "No. Don't worry, I'll just sit and wait in the room outside. Is my sister also following Sister Lin? It seems unfamiliar."

"Girls who are not big or small, you can also preach the second cousin of Bao? You still don't back down." Lin Wei's voice came from behind the two of them coldly, but he really learned Jia Baoyu's ability to treat women with a pleasant face Well, just being reprimanded by a girl like this, there was no trace of anger on that face.

Until this time, Bi Yuanfang opened the door and came out, seeing that Lin Wei couldn't help laughing, she knew why Lin Wei came here, so she said calmly: "Young lady is washing up, young master and Bao Er Come in and sit down, sir, I will make a pot of tea for the two masters and put it in the outer room, it will be ready in a while."

"No need, you go and take care of my sister to wash up first, I'll just blow the air here." Lin Wei leisurely stood under a pear tree outside the door and talked, Bi Yuan felt inexplicably at ease after seeing it.

It's all right for Jia Baoyu to be scolded by the maid, but when she saw Lin Wei coming over, she felt that she was one head and two big. It was overwhelming, Jia Baoyu immediately lost all energy, and said to Lin Wei in a muffled voice: "My sister is not well yet, my cousin will sit with me in the ancestor's house first?"

Lin Wei raised one hand and fumbled for his chin, squinted his eyes at Jia Baoyu, the corners of his lips slanted but did not move, and asked: "This early in the morning, why did Second Cousin Bao think of coming to my sister? I just saw you going in."

Jia Baoyu: "..."

"Let's go." Lin Wei smiled casually, and walked up to Jia Mu's room.

Jia Baoyu suddenly felt that this proposal was extremely bad, and thought several times that he should go to his wife's room first, and followed Lin Wei dawdlingly while thinking wildly.However, when the two of them went to Jiamu's room, they saw Wang Xifeng had also come in through the back door, so Lin Wei curled his lips secretly.Wang Xifeng had the sharpest eyes, when he saw the two of them, he laughed and said: "Who am I to say, these two boys, Yan and Su, seem to have walked off a sticker at first glance."

Jia's mother also laughed, she couldn't see that the two days ahead were not happy, she just said: "Brother Wei is here? I woke up early, but I haven't eaten yet? Yuanyang, go get it first." Some soft snacks to make their brothers feel better, children can't stand hunger, and they can't compare with us."

Lin Wei came here today just to find fault, seeing that the two of them only said good things but didn't appreciate it at all, he said with a displeased face: "Lin Wei send hello to the old lady, hello to the second sister-in-law, the dessert will be eaten after a while , I still have something to say. Yesterday, Bi Yuan went back and said that my sister didn't sleep well at night. I thought it was the first time my sister was not used to going out. Today, I took advantage of the time before school to come here. Look, I don’t want to, I just saw something rare.”

After hearing Lin Wei's breath, Jia's mother had a look of suspicion on her face, thinking that Lin Wei's speech that day was so insignificant that he dared to embarrass others, she was prepared in her heart, However, she really couldn't be as knowledgeable as a child like him, so she secretly glanced at Amber at the door, and then glanced in the direction of Daiyu's room. He asked with a kind smile, "What did you see?"

Lin Wei glanced at Jia Baoyu in a blink of an eye, with a sarcastic sneer on the corner of his mouth, and said: "I just had a sip of tea in the dining room, and when I saw some movement in my sister's room, I was about to ask when I would get up, but Bao Er Cousin burrowed his head and drilled in, if I hadn't happened to come over to stop him, I still don't know where Cousin Bao is now." Jia Mu and Wang Xifeng couldn't hold back their faces anymore, and immediately fell down. , then Lin Wei said again, "The old lady is well-informed, and she is also the person who supports the facade of the Rongguo Mansion. Please teach me, what is the reason for this? Speaking of which, the old lady is a treasure. Brother’s master, is it possible that you can also be your sister’s master? I remember the old lady told me that day that my sister is your granddaughter and it hurts to hold her in the palm of your hand. I won’t say anything about it, but The threshold of the girls' boudoir, I'm afraid you can't step on it at will, right?"

What Lin Wei said hotly that day, today Jia Mu slapped herself in front of others, and now she can't even come back, and her face is a little bit hard to hold.It was Wang Xifeng who opened the mouth at this moment, followed by Lin Wei's words and said with a smile: "I'm afraid I got up early today, I don't know if the old lady went out for a walk before she got up, what about the children's family?" What's the matter? Baoyu is the most courteous person, even sitting in the outer room and drinking saliva, it doesn't matter. You brothers and sisters get along well, and our two families are close. In the future, we will take care of each other more. The relationship is not yours Own?"

"Second sister-in-law's words are good, but I don't know what uncle will think when he hears it?" Lin Wei heard footsteps behind her, turned around and saw Daiyu coming, and said, "Sister came just in time, go clean up Pack up and let's go home. Although, as Lian's second sister-in-law said, it doesn't matter that we are still young, but if my sister is really going to be twelve or thirteen years old now, I won't come here and say these things I'm afraid I won't be able to ask my sister to live in that day. It's not that I, Lin Wei, don't show affection, but you know who I am, an old lady. Maybe there is something else to do about it, but if I don't give my uncle an explanation, it would be really unfilial of me. Today I will take my sister back first, and the old lady will think about it someday, and she will only be called Lian Er Cousin used to tell Uncle that it is up to you how Uncle responds at that time. I just hope that the old lady will not embarrass me. The rules and principles of our Lin family still have to be carried out by me. How about you? ?”

What Lin Wei said was reasonable, which showed that he could bear it logically but couldn't ignore it logically, and that his concurrent identity was embarrassing after all.But Mother Jia also understood in her heart that if Lin Haizhen saw Baoyu and rushed into Daiyu's room at will, with his temperament, it might not be as simple as Lin Wei said. It's just some affection, but it's her negligence that she didn't tell Yu Baoyu earlier.Now it's not good to ask Lin Wei to meet him right now, if she continues to block her and stir up Lin Wei's temper to go back and talk to Lin Hai in a more eloquent way, I'm afraid that uncle will hold her grudge against her even more.Comparing the two, whichever is less, if you can coax Lin Wei and Daiyu to be happy now, it will be the same if you pick them up next time. Lin Hai is the head of the family, and it is not easy to coax him to feel dissatisfied.

Although this Lin Wei had a stubborn temper, Jia's mother looked at him coldly. After all, this child had a deep gap in his heart, and he might have a good future in the future.In the past few years, Jia Mu has also asked many questions. Among the four kings, eight princes, princes and noble relatives who have made good friends, this Lin Hai can be regarded as a step-by-step promotion with a good future.What's more important is that Daiyu has a very kind and intelligent temperament, and she is also very good-looking. After all, it is hard to find such an outstanding girl, and she knows her roots well.Regardless of her family background, temperament and appearance, this Daiyu is extremely good in everything, even that Yun girl is worse in all aspects.So Mother Jia compared back and forth, since the Lin family moved to Beijing, the thoughts that had been slowly extinguished in her heart resurfaced, and the more they got along with each other, the more satisfied they felt.

So it is for a long-term plan, if you want to get Daiyu to be a wife in Lin Hai's hands in exchange for the Lin family's long-term help, and even rely on that prince, it seems that you really need to plan carefully .Jia's mother relied on Jia Min to go early and wanted to keep Daiyu by her side, otherwise she couldn't send the girl to her.Although Lin Hai only agreed to ask Daiyu to stay for a while, what she planned was that if Daiyu lived well and had the sisters laughing and studying together, sooner or later she would be able to make sense of Lin Hai.If Daiyu lived for a long time, his relationship with Baoyu would be different. At that time, Lin Hai would have to think about Daiyu's thoughts even if he was unwilling or afraid.Nowadays, although the Lin family is noble, there is no mistress after all. As the saying goes, if the eldest daughter of a widow is not married, then Lin Hai is only planning for Daiyu's future. It is also very admirable to have the old Feng Jun in the Rongguo mansion teach this name. The thing about her long face.

Thinking of these things, Jia's mother had already made up her mind, but seeing that Lin Wei's expression didn't soften, she couldn't bear to speak kindly to him.And Daiyu saw that Lin Wei spoke a little coldly, thinking that it was true that her grandmother loved her, and she really couldn't make it too ugly, thinking that her grandmother called her here was for these reasons, so she said softly: "Grandma, don't take it to heart. , Wei'er has a straightforward personality, and it's the same at home. She always talks about Ding Mao and Mao, but she doesn't have any bad intentions. I haven't slept well in the past two days. Why don't I go back first? Once I come back, I always think about my mother's appearance and daily activities with my grandmother when I was young, and I feel uneasy. If I miss my grandmother in a few days, I will ask my father to send me over to visit."

"It's up to you." Jia Mu finally got down the steps, and her complexion gradually improved, then she sighed and turned her head to Lin Wei: "It was also my negligence, after all, I think you are still young, they Brother and sister are serious aunts and cousins, so there is no reason to fight. But Baoyu's children, since they are close to Daiyu, want to talk to her more. How can they think so much? It's nothing, the past has passed, you go back in a hurry, I'll ask someone to clean up the courtyard in front of your second uncle and ask Baoyu to move there, and I will pick up Yu'er to live in after a while." Then he said again. He said to Wang Xifeng, "You asked someone to clean it up earlier, and moved it to Baoyu on a good day, so that you can study quietly."

Wang Xifeng smiled and said: "I remember, for people like us, this education is enviable. Baoyu works hard at such an age. It may not be three to five years. It's unknown if both of them are brothers. Children from poor families are crawling all over the mud at this moment, how do they know how to work hard?"

Only then did Jiamu's eyes look joyful, she chatted with Daiyu for a while and left their siblings for breakfast, seeing that Lin Wei's expression gradually eased, she thought it was for the sake of the relationship between the two families , He can't talk and do things in front of Lin Hai, it's too extreme.What's more, she arranged for Baoyu's outer courtyard in front of Lin Wei, and his transparency must be able to understand, so she was relieved and asked Jia Lian to prepare a car outside to send them off. Brother and sister go back.

However, after Daiyu brought someone out, Lin Wei looked at Zijuan next to Daiyu, and couldn't even hold back that expression. She just felt that the old lady was too self-righteous, and she was sure that Lin Hai's help would be weak. To easily get into a stalemate with his Rongguo Mansion, this is simply achievable.At this time, Lin Wei was a little suspicious of Lin Hai's purpose of telling him to come to the Rongguo Mansion again and again, or maybe he also had the intention of telling him to break up with the old lady because of Lin Wei's identity. After all, it has been so many years , Lin Hai should know Jia Mu very well.

Lin Wei turned her head and asked Wang Xifeng beside her, "Second sister-in-law Lian, what's the matter with this girl?"

Leaving Zijuan aside, even Wang Xifeng's expression was quite embarrassing at this time, and it was Daiyu who took the lead and said: "I came here for the first time and lived here, and my grandmother was afraid that I would not be used to it, for example, go to the two uncles or Find Lian's second sister-in-law for a sit-down or something, it's all up to her, and it's not a big deal." Daiyu said this, but she knew it very well in her heart, when Jia Mu said that day, she was very sure to tell her to follow her. Yes, this Zicuckoo even asked her to take its name, so I'm afraid I still have to take it back.

Lin Wei nodded but just looked at Wang Xifeng relentlessly. When Wang Xifeng was in the room, she had seen Jia's mother compromise everywhere just to make their siblings happy. Thinking about it, it's not because he was really afraid of the Lin family. Just think about turning forward.Thinking so far, Wang Xifeng had an idea, so she smiled slowly: "That's right, she is the girl in front of the old lady, but the old lady saw that sister Lin was young, so she was afraid that she would not be able to adapt here, so she called her It’s just to help, and it’s also for my sister to live comfortably. Don’t worry about her seriously, they get along with each other, and you can take care of sending sister Lin off, and she will go back to the old lady’s house after a while."

It was so easy to get rid of the Lin family siblings, both Jia Mu and Wang Xifeng felt exhausted, they just felt that Lin Wei was really hard to get along with, regardless of a little affection, I really don't understand how Lin Hai could bear him, that's all, let's just look at Lin Hai save face.Mother Jia sent Zicuckoo to Daiyu's house, which was clearly reserved for Daiyu, and even she herself felt physically and mentally exhausted after ordering neatly.

"Old Ancestor, I live here well, do you really want to send me over there?" Jia Baoyu did not make trouble in front of Lin Wei this time, he understood what Lin Wei said, but He secretly sighed that he didn't read the almanac when he got up early, but he asked his cousin Lin to take it upright.However, he was asked to live in the east courtyard by himself, not to mention the desertedness every day. After all, he couldn't understand Jiamu's thoughts. After a long while alone, he couldn't hold back, and said, "today The first is that I was reckless, the old ancestor told Lin's cousin in a good manner, that I will treat my sister with courtesy in the future, and leave me alone... I don't want to go there. "

Mother Jia made this decision after a lot of deliberation. If she wanted Daiyu to live for a long time, Lin Hai would not accept that they would live together and face each other sooner or later. Then he agreed to Mrs. Wang. It seems that Lin Wei's heart was already concentrated, but he was so embarrassed that he had to coax Baoyu at this moment: "It's okay if I ask someone to clean it up for you over there." For the sake of cheapness, this room is reserved for you. You love to sleep with your ancestors, who would dare to say no? But your sister is a relative after all, and it is appropriate for you to treat her with courtesy Right, you like your sister, but you also want to make her live comfortably?"

Although Jia Baoyu was reluctant, he also knew that Cousin Lin was an extremely difficult person to coax.In order to allow Sister Lin to stay here more often and be with their wives in peace and quiet, he had no choice but to obediently submit to Jiamu, and moved out when a good day came.

Jia's mother made such a big concession, it was hard for Lin Wei to believe that she even threw Jia Baoyu out, but the more she did this, the more determined she would be towards Daiyu.The two brothers and sisters had only been back for a month, and the old lady came to pick up Daiyu on the pretext of going to a play. Lin Hai refused, saying that it was inconvenient for Daiyu to be filial. Go and stay for a few days.

It's just that with Lin Wei's harsh words twice, Mother Jia finally ordered everyone to treat Daiyu with caution, holding her in the palm of her hand and pampering her even more. It really lifted Daiyu up.Even the servants didn't dare to gossip, and when they gossiped with each other, they just praised the girl from the Lin family after all, she was born in a scholarly family, and her behavior was decent and generous, which made people like it.

Lin Wei nodded after hearing Bi Yuan's reply.Daiyu is originally a noble lady, how the Jia family treats their daughter has nothing to do with him, but Daiyu deserves it, and he can't make her feel wronged.Therefore, in the next few years, no matter how long or short Daiyu lived in the Rongguo Mansion, no one dared to question her status, but it was exactly Mother Jia's intention.This is for a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being.
