The Red House Returns the Pearl Lin's Home

Since Jia Zheng and Jia Lian came home from Shuntian Mansion Yamen, Rongguo Mansion was in a state of chaos, especially when the imperial decree of Qianlong came down the next day, Jia Zheng, the only official in Rongguo Mansion, was deprived of his official position, everyone in Rongguo Mansion felt that His face was dull, and even the stone lion at the door seemed to be dimmed by three points.

After two months of waiting, the Grand View Garden, which cost a lot of money and almost completely emptied out the treasury of the Rongguo Mansion, was finally completed. It was supposed to be the time for the concubine Xiande to go home to visit her relatives in a beautiful way, so that the Rongguo Mansion could feel proud and let go of the bad luck. Qianlong smashed down another imperial decree, so that the Jia family didn't know the southeast and northwest again-the emperor directly crossed out the name of the concubine Xiande in the list of approved relatives.

Originally, visiting relatives is not an honor that every concubine has. There are only a few in the palace who have such qualifications. Maybe let you go back?That family's hearts are dark, dear concubine, you should live in the palace honestly.

Qianlong was allowed to visit Jia Yuanchun's relatives in order to dig out the money hoarded by the old noble family for several generations. The Jia family had already contributed to the family property. Qianlong saw that such a large amount of money flowed into the people again. The goal was achieved, so he didn't care. Will Jia Yuanchun be able to return home in style?

Qianlong has also developed a habit now, going to the Lin's house to sit every now and then, saying a few words with Lin Lin's iceberg face, and often arguing with Lin Lu when he has time.

In the past, Qianlong chatted with Lin Lu purely for Lin Lin's face, and Ai Wu and Wu gave him this honor. After the lawsuit with Xue's family, Qianlong became a little interested in Lin Lu herself.

For no other reason, Lin Lu's series of tricks as an angel surprised Qianlong, which is really beyond the imagination of ordinary people.The emperor thought that Lin Lu was just an ordinary and slightly clever junior, so he didn't take it very seriously. After hearing Hai Lancha and Cheng Yan repeat what happened that day twice, he realized that it was a poisonous snake.

Lin Lu's methods are no worse than Lin Lin's if she can be ruthless to both her family and her family. Qianlong tried it a few times and found that although this kid is ruthless, he is not just idle and easy to catch Whoever takes a bite, behaves very measuredly, I am afraid that the Jia family really chilled him, so he showed his fangs just now.

Qianlong didn't see Lin Lu's usual aggressiveness, so he put it down after a long time. A poisonous snake is a poisonous snake, anyway, it can't bite his head anyway. To be honest, there is Lin Lu who is so vile Qianlong was very relieved that the witty boy was by Lin Lin's side.

Lin Lin has a straightforward temper, speaks coldly, and easily offends others. Lin Lu is exactly the opposite of him. He speaks and does things that make people feel comfortable from the bottom of their hearts. They are knowledgeable and interesting. Their personalities complement each other.

In the past, which of his concubines gave birth to a child, Qianlong didn't care about it. He threw it in the Shang's study, and read it if he liked it. .

But Lin Lin was completely different. For the first time in his life, Qianlong realized what it was like to be a simple father. He worried about his son's future every day, not to mention planning, worrying about this and that, and there was no time for peace.

Especially Lin Lin's character is so immature, what if she offends someone's mastermind, and she is so busy all day long, what if she can't protect her?What if the son hurts himself by dancing with a knife and a gun?He couldn't help worrying when he saw no one, he wished he could pin Lin Lin on his belt and carry it with him.

This feeling is very novel and very interesting. Qianlong watched Lin Lin's figure grow and open day by day, her brows became more and more heroic, and she shone brightly every time she stood in the crowd. He felt a sense of accomplishment and pride in being a father. Feeling, Pidianpidian ran to Lin's mansion more frequently.

He came more often, and gradually became acquainted with the people in the Lin family, and met Lin Daiyu a few times when he was interested.

Lin Lu really didn't want to pull her precious girl out. Qianlong had been lustful for a long time. If he fell in love with his girl, who would he cry to?

Unexpectedly, Qianlong was very interested, and urged Lin Lu to call Lin Daiyu. He was very happy when he saw it, and he rewarded him with a generous gift.

Lin Lu was still worried at first, but after seeing that Qianlong spoke to Lin Daiyu several times in a very self-conscious elder tone, his eyes were clear and he didn't seem to have such thoughts, and then he gradually relaxed.

Ever since Xue Pan received the lunch box and had a big fight with the Xue family and the Jia family in Shuntian Prefecture Yamen, Lin Lu kept a low profile and kept the door of the house closed every day. The turmoil in the past gradually calmed down, and few people talked about it.

However, Lin Lu was driven crazy by such a boring life, so she teamed up with Hai Lancha and Jia Lian to secretly open some shops and do some small business, which also made some money every month.

Jia Lian helped him in court at that time, although most of the reasons were because of Jia Zheng's anger, after all, he helped him a lot. One of Lin Lu's great advantages is that she knows how to repay her kindness. Jia Mu's heart, she has been neglected for many years, and she will take him along when she encounters a chance to make a fortune.

What's more, it is good for Lin Lu to befriend Jia Lian.

For one thing, it can also prevent the Rongguo Mansion from preaching that he is ungrateful and disrespectful to his family. Lin Lu can put his arms around Jia Lian's shoulders and say that our cousins ​​are doing well, and stop those people's mouths.

Secondly, Wang Xifeng is Wang Ziteng's serious niece, and Wang Ziteng's elder brother died young. With just such a daughter, Wang Xifeng was raised by two uncles, and the relationship is also close.

When the Lin family first moved to Beijing with their family, Wang Ziteng was promoted to the control of the nine provinces, and he was ordered to inspect the border. Now three years have passed slowly. It seems that he will be transferred back to Beijing.

For a character like Wang Ziteng, who has moved three times in four years and moved to important positions, it can be said that Jane is in the heart of the emperor, and he is a proper official. Lin Lu doesn't want to offend him, and there is no need to offend him. It can alleviate the negative impact brought by Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue.

Of course, after killing his nephew, Lin Lu didn't imagine that he and Wang Ziteng could become such close friends. It was enough to let Wang Ziteng know that he had no ill intentions towards the Wang family.

Now Lin Lu was drinking with Hailancha and Jia Lian. The three of them sat around a small table and turned away the servants. Jia Lian took the jug and filled Hailancha's glass.

"I would like to offer a toast to the two elder brothers. Thank you for your help in the past three years." Lin Lu drank a lot, but he drank a lot, but his cheeks were slightly flushed, and he smiled cutely. Yangzhou is already in Yangzhou, and... Ziyu's name is in the Yangzhou county government, and he needs to go back to take part in the children's martial arts examination."

This was agreed a long time ago, Hai Lancha and Jia Lian were not too surprised, the three of them clinked their glasses as a sign, and they all drank in one gulp.

"Second cousin is very skilled in martial arts and has a good character. Why worry about no future? This martial arts competition will surely be a smashing success." Jia Lian said with some emotion, some things are destined to be fate, you can't help but deny it .

"Second Cousin Lian, please don't say that, let Ziyu hear it, and he will be even more crazy." Having said that, Lin Lu laughed happily for a while, and the monk was finally able to soar into the sky, In the future, he can be regarded as freed from the hard life of being cooped up at home every day.

To put it bluntly, the old man Qianlong stared at him from the dragon chair. Lin Lin's bright future has already been paved, but he should be modest. Lin Lu looked at Jia Lian and complimented softly: "What is Ziyu? Well, the horoscope has not yet been written, and the eighteen mountain gates will come one after another. It is still unknown what will happen in the future. Lian's second cousin's uncle, Prince Teng Wang, will return to Beijing soon, and Wang has just been promoted. All nine provinces have been inspected, which is highly valued by the Long Live Lord."

Jia Lian held the wine cup and shook his head, then sighed, "Cousin Lin, you and my cousins ​​are as close as one, so I have something to say - if my uncle-in-law had returned to Beijing three years earlier, things would not have been like this, if it had been later If you return to Beijing in three years, there will be no trouble."

The meaning of these words is very clear. If Wang Ziteng had already returned to Beijing three years ago when the two families went to court, with his position in charge of one-third of the soldiers and horses in the capital, a small governor of Shuntian Prefecture is really nothing Why was the Jia family and the Xue family forced by Lin Lu to such an isolated and helpless situation where thousands of people criticized them.

If Wang Ziteng returns to Beijing in another three years, Lin Lin has already gained a firm foothold in the court after passing the scientific examination, and the matter of Xue Pan is already a thing of the past, then Wang Ziteng will not do it for a nephew who has been dead for six years. Going to Lin Lin to trouble him for nothing.

But Wang Ziteng returned to Beijing at such a time of day, and Jia Lian hadn't talked to him yet, so he couldn't figure out what Wang Ziteng was planning.

Jia Lian only knew that as soon as something happened to Xue Pan, Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue rushed to inform Wang Ziteng, but the journey was far away, and the lawsuit was settled when Wang Ziteng got the letter, so she didn't intervene again.

Lin Lu clinked glasses with him, and said with a smile, "I know my cousin is thinking of me, so I just said this, which shows that my cousin and I are of the same mind."

After all, Jia Lian's surname is Jia. Although he has become more and more estranged from Erfang in recent years, he is still a hidden descendant under the big tree of Rongguo Mansion. It is really not easy to say this.

Lin Lu smiled lazily, confidently saying, "Second Cousin Lian is overthinking. What happened back then was so uproarious that the three families were ashamed. If Mr. Wang turns over the old score, let's not talk about whether we can drag my Lin family into trouble, at least He can't run away by himself."

The elders involved, Jia Zheng is Wang Ziteng's brother-in-law, Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue are both Wang Ziteng's biological sisters. It's too late for Wang Ziteng to cover up such a mess. Make a fuss.

Jia Lian saw that he knew what was in his mind, so he didn't say much, and it was really hard to say too much. He nodded and looked to the side: "How are the preparations for the marriage going?"

Last month, Qianlong proposed marriage to the most useful first-class bodyguard around him, and the granddaughter of Prince Shuo Zhuangke and Yunlu, the sixteenth son of the holy ancestor, a veritable noble daughter of a famous family.

Hai Lancha's face was flushed red, she held the wine cup silently for a long time, and finally suffocated a sentence under Lin Lu's narrow eyes: "Er Niang is already busy with the little ceremony." His father died early, and the family There was only one mother for more than ten years.

Hai Lancha is not young anymore, the ancients married early, and there are not many young men like him who are about to be 20 years old who are still unmarried.

Hai Lancha also wanted to marry a daughter-in-law early so that Erniang could enjoy the blessings, but it was not his turn to take care of this matter. Qianlong should point him out. Refers to marriage.

The three chatted for a while. Considering that Lin Lu was going back tomorrow morning, they left early. Hai Lancha left first. Jia Lian pulled Lin Lu before leaving and asked in a low voice, "Cousin Lin is going back with you too." ?"

"It's just going back to take a test, so why bother with the family?" Lin Lu shrugged with a smile on her shoulders, "I went back with Ziyu just to revisit the old place, forget it Thinking about it, I missed this opportunity, and I don’t know when the next time I will be free.”

Jia Lian was obviously hesitant, and swallowed the words several times when they reached his lips, but he still refused to leave.

Lin Lu looked at him intentionally in surprise: "What's the matter, second cousin Lian, who is this? It's good to just speak up, we brothers don't pay attention to such vain manners."

Jia Lian laughed dryly, really embarrassed to say it, but he couldn't help delaying it, and simply said: "All the men in charge of your family have left, so what's the point of leaving my cousin here alone? It's an exam. Come back after the test, it will take half a year to come back and forth, how can a daughter's family who is as delicate as Lin's cousin be able to bear such loneliness?"

"Not lonely, not lonely," Lin Lu kept pretending to be stupid with him, and waved her hand, "You are overthinking, there are more than 20 maids in this house accompanying my sister, and there are also full guards outside. I left the big housekeeper here, the old man has been busy for my Lin family for decades, and he has never made a mistake."

Lin Lu paused for a moment, then squinted her eyes and smiled: "Besides, Hai Lancha has already told me that he won't marry a wife and forget about his brothers. He will help me take care of me when I leave." After finishing speaking, he cupped his hands and turned around to leave.

"Cousin Lin is so confused. No matter how good your personal relationship is with Sir Sauron Dural, he is a man with a different surname. After all, there are some inconveniences." , said kindly, "Let me tell my cousin directly. The old lady was worried when she heard about this. She was worried about Cousin Lin and wanted to take her to stay with her for a few days."

Lin Lu didn't make a sound.

Jia Lian was a little anxious, so she couldn't help but increase her hand strength, pinching Lin Lu's arm and said, "Cousin Lin, I think it's because of my ancestors' wishes. It was my family who wronged my cousin and made him feel wronged." .It’s just that after all these years, my cousin has scolded and scolded me, and I’ve been cold and cold. No matter how angry I am, it’s time for me to dissipate. If this continues, won’t it look like it to outsiders?”

Seeing that Lin Lin was about to get up, the Rongguo Mansion couldn't bear it anymore, and being a laughing stock for so many years was enough.

Lin Lu blinked her eyes, stared at Jia Lian, and said with a smile, "Let's talk about it, Lian's second cousin also said that it's not a matter of a day or two for our brothers to leave. How can we bother grandma so much?"

"Cousin Lin, why did you come here? I won't hide it from my cousin. Your filial piety period has passed, and your cousin has reached the age of marriage. It is best to have the elders to help you manage the matter of getting married, not to mention getting married now. They are both used to seeing each other in advance, and the two families decided it was appropriate for each other, and it is inappropriate for Cousin Lin not to go out at home every day." Jia Lian finally had the intention of begging.

Lin Lu didn't want to embarrass him too much, so she sighed and took a step back: "Of course I also know that Second Cousin Lian is thinking about our brothers and sisters, but where is the house, our brothers and sisters have seen it three years ago. My sister is soft-tempered, but I can't stand someone pointing their noses at the rent money—how about it, when Ziyu and I come back from Yangzhou, how about taking my sister to the house to greet the old lady myself?"

When Jia Lian heard this, although she failed to complete what Jia's mother entrusted, waiting still provided an opportunity for the relationship between the two families to ease, and Lin Lu's voice was determined to have no intention of looping back, so she nodded in agreement.
