The Lin family of the Red Chamber has a son

Lin Yanman planned to let his younger sister go to Rongfu in a few days, but he didn't expect to have dinner the next morning, and then Second Mistress Lian and Second Master Bao from Rongfu came to visit Daiyu together.

After listening to Lin Cheng's biography outside, Lin Yan sat on the chair and smiled.

Lian's second grandma?Isn't it the famous Feng Spicy Wang Xifeng?In the legend, the mighty Fengjie who has grown 1 hearts?

In all fairness, Lin Yan doesn't dislike this woman, and even thinks that she has a hot temper and quick means, which is rare among the fans.It's just a pity that she is shrewd in small things, but confused in big things.It can be seen that this woman is no different from her two aunts in the Wang family just because of the two incidents of using the profiteering money to solicit lawsuits. Her eyes only recognize money.What's more, when Jia Lian secretly married Second Sister You, she secretly asked someone to sue Jia Lian, and dared to say something like "it's okay to sue our house for murder".

Why does she have a foothold in the Rong Mansion?Why is she called the second grandma?Not because of Jia Lian!

Did she really think that the Rong Mansion was powerful?

Lin Yan felt that these things had nothing to do with him, and he didn't need to worry about them.It's just that Sister Feng is the first person who can be used by the old lady of Jia's mansion, and she knows how to act according to Jia's mother's mind.

She always liked to make fun of Daiyu in the Rong Mansion, and she often pulled Daiyu and that stone together.Even if he sided with Jia Mu in a disguised form, he never thought that his sister's reputation would be ruined?If in the future Baodai and Baodai fail to get married, how will Daiyu deal with herself?

"Just now you said, who did Second Mistress Lian come with?" Lin Yan asked casually as he fiddled with a pot of chrysanthemums in full bloom in front of the window.

"It's the second master Bao in their house." Lin Cheng replied.

"How did they... get here?"

Lin Cheng thought about it for a while, and said, "I came by car."

"a car?"

Hearing his uncle's slightly raised voice, Lin Cheng's heart skipped a beat. The old man still spoke in a normal tone, why did it change in his ears?Wait, wait, here, Second Grandma Lian and Second Master Bao in the Rong Mansion are riding in the same car?If I remember correctly, Second Master Bao is older than the girl, right?Lian's second grandmother is also a young daughter-in-law, isn't she?Is this too careless?

Lin Cheng is an old man in Lin Ruhai's family, with the most serious temper.At this time, Sister Feng and her son Baoyu looked down upon the outsiders, and even Rongfu was somewhat despised.

Lin Yan looked at the old man's face with amused expression, and said with a smile, "Uncle Lin, it's better to invite the guests in quickly. Let Chen Sheng's family take the second mistress to see the girl, Second Master Bao No need, you brought it to me yourself.”

Lin Cheng went out with a "hey", after all, it was the girl's natal family, it would be a shame to lose the etiquette of the Lin family.

Zhou Rui's family raised the curtain of the car and helped Sister Feng get out of the car.Baoyu jumped down after him, looked around, and saw only a fair-faced daughter-in-law and several women who were there to meet her.

Chen Sheng's family respectfully looked at the blessings of the two, and said with a smile: "Slave Chen Sheng's family, please greet Lian's second grandma, Bao Erye. Our uncle is waiting in the flower hall, and asked Uncle Lin to bring Bao Erye himself. Go there. Second Mistress Lian, please come with the maidservant, and the girl is waiting in the room."

Before Sister Feng could speak, Baoyu was a little anxious—I was going to see Sister Lin, how could I go to the flower hall?

Fortunately, even though he was used to being in Jia's house on weekdays, he would not be too rude when he came out.Sister Feng glanced at him again and motioned him to follow Steward Lin.I had to leave Sister Feng unhappy.

Sister Feng followed Chen Sheng's family all the way to Daiyu's house.Sister Feng couldn't help looking around, and saw that the courtyard where Daiyu lived was huge. There were five main rooms, three connected in the middle, and one on each side.There are verandahs on the left and right connecting the east and west rooms. There is a huge crabapple tree planted on one side of the courtyard. Although it is autumn now, the leaves are still green, which is very eye-catching.There are also a few green bamboos growing in the corner of the yard, and a few clusters of short flowers, which are also extremely gorgeous.

There were a few little girls drying in the sun on the veranda, and when they saw someone coming, they all hurriedly stood with their hands down, their heads slightly lowered.Sister Feng glanced over, and saw that the little girls were all wearing light green waistcoats and bright yellow skirts, which looked neat and tidy.

A girl had already opened the curtain, and Daiyu had come out to welcome her.

"Oh, my little aunt! How did you become so thin?" Sister Feng was hot-tempered and articulate, so she liked Daiyu who could also speak.Coupled with Jia's mother's thoughts, Sister Feng and Daiyu have gotten along very well in recent years.Seeing her description at this time, I couldn't help but quickly stepped forward and grabbed her.

"Sister Feng." Daiyu hadn't seen her for many years, and she was also a little happy at this moment, and hurriedly let people in.

A few members of Zhou Rui's family and Madam Wang came over and took them to another place to say hello.Sister Feng followed Daiyu to the room, took Daiyu to sit down, looked up and down carefully, and saw that although Daiyu described her as thinner, her face was fine, so she was relieved.At that moment, Zicuckoo brought tea again, so Sister Feng just took Daiyu's hand and said goodbye.

Not long after, Xueyan came in again and replied: "The things that Cai Lian's second grandma sent here just now, the uncle asked to bring them over for the girl to have a look at."

Daiyu looked at those tonics, which she used to eat when she lived in Rongfu.Thinking of the love of the old lady before, I was grateful, and my eyes were a little moist.

Seeing Daiyu's description, Sister Feng said, "Sister, don't be like this. If the old lady knows, wouldn't it be uncomfortable? When I came just now, the old lady repeatedly explained that she must ask my sister to rest for two days. Let’s go back and have a look, so as to reassure her old man.”

Daiyu lowered her head and wiped the corners of her eyes, then nodded.

Anyway, after talking for a while, Sister Feng got up to say goodbye, and said with a smile: "Baoyu is still waiting there, I'm afraid he's waiting impatiently. My sister knows his temperament, and she will be anxious if she can't see him for a while. I Go back first, and my sister will come in two days?"

Seeing that Daiyu still nodded indifferently, she was slightly puzzled. Didn't Sister Lin always get along very well with Baoyu?Why didn't you ask him when you heard him coming?

With some doubts, Wang Momo sent Sister Feng to Yimen.Jia's chariots and horses were waiting there.

At that moment, another tall, handsome young man sent Baoyu out.Baoyu walked ahead, with a look of impatience on his face.The young man had a smile on his mouth, a pair of black eyes on his fair face, and his eyebrows were curved, looking clear and gentle.

The young man came to Sister Feng and bowed, and asked with a smile, "Is this Lian's second sister-in-law?"

After looking at it, Sister Feng already guessed that this must be the uncle of the Lin family.Immediately returned the gift, said with a smile: "This is Cousin Lin?"

Lin Yan said softly, "Exactly. Thanks to Brother Lian's care, I'm here to say thank you to my sister-in-law."

Sister Feng waved her hands and said, "Don't dare to be. Cousin Lin, I just told Sister Lin that I will pick you up in two days to see the old lady. I don't know where Cousin Lin is..."

"It's time to visit the old lady." Lin Yan said with a smile, and stretched out his hand to open the curtain.

"Oh, I really don't dare to take it." Sister Feng saw Baoyu standing under the car pouting her lips, and stopped greeting, got into the car first, and called Baoyu to come up.

Baoyu cupped his hands reluctantly, turned around and got into the car.Sister Feng smiled apologetically at Lin Yan, and Lin Yan lowered the curtain.

For just that moment, Sister Feng seemed to see the smile on Lin Yan's lips turn cold.The eyes cast on Baoyu were full of sarcasm.The originally handsome face changed into a cold and gloomy expression in the blink of an eye.When Sister Feng was startled, the curtain fell, covering her sight.

It was night, and Lin Yan turned out of Lin's mansion in a discreet dress.Speeding all the way, they came to an unremarkable small courtyard on Xinlong Street.

After three light knocks, the closed door creaked open, and a man in gray opened the door, whispering: "The pavilion in the backyard."

Lin Yan stepped in and walked straight into the backyard.Just looking at it, I knew it wasn't the first time.

"Lin Zifei has seen the emperor." Liao Zi knelt on one knee and saluted the man in the pavilion who was playing with the wine glass.

The man didn't cry, and asked casually: "Did you come back yesterday?" His voice was a little low, with a little laziness, and it was very comfortable to hear.

"Yes."

"Okay, let's get up. Tell me about what you found out when you were in Yangzhou."

Lin Yan got up, stood in front of the emperor with his hands down, and reported all the investigations he had done in Yangzhou.

In fact, he had already secretly reported these things to the emperor, and if he said them again at this time, they would be just repetitions.The emperor frowned for a while, and sighed: "The area around the south of the Yangtze River is far away from the capital. There are also a few old officials who live here for a long time, and each has their own thoughts. Hmph, this is just looking at how far I am, and I don't know all of them. Besides, the emperor misses the old days, so he won't let me send them off easily."

Standing there, Lin Yan just bowed and listened without interrupting.There is no need to say anything at first, if the big families in Jiangnan are there to keep their own place, that's all. I was born with that confused mind. I used to get along with the old prince Yizhong, and now I'm still getting along with the emperor in Beijing. brothers.That's it, can we have a good time in the future?The emperor had already planned in his heart, and was setting up a trick step by step.It's just that I keep these things in my heart all day, and I just let him listen to it at this time.

The emperor sat there and patted the table for a while, seeing the old god Lin Yan, his anger rose again, "Lin Zifei! I'm talking to you, how dare you not listen?"

Lin Zifei rolled his eyes in his heart, and immediately knelt on the ground, "Caomin dare not. Caomin has been listening to the emperor, without the emperor's permission, Caomin dare not talk about court affairs."

The emperor laughed angrily, so it's still his own, isn't it?

Standing up and shaking his robe, the emperor's childlike innocence grew, and he lightly touched Lin Yan with the back of his foot, "Get up, you don't have to kneel like this and be silent."

Lin Yan stood up, patted the corner of his clothes, and said with a smile, "The emperor's power is getting stronger day by day, and the grassroots dare not make mistakes."

The emperor sighed softly, and the corners of his brows twitched again, and said: "I used to think that being an emperor is very good, but now that it's only been a few years, I feel that I'm not as comfortable as an idle prince."

Lin Yan resisted the desire to complain and responded twice.The emperor immediately lost interest in talking, and waved his hand: "Okay, you go back. Take care of your restaurants and brothels, and don't worry about spending money when it's time to spend. If you have anything to do, go directly to Lao Jiu. In addition Don’t just focus on studying at the Imperial College, you should keep an eye on some individuals.”

Lin Yan respectfully agreed to the emperor's words, and Lin Yan wanted to withdraw.

The emperor suddenly said again: "You brought Lin Ruhai's daughter back, but the Rongguo Mansion didn't post it? I agreed to the concubine's family visit. Could it be that there is no movement at Concubine Xiande's house?"

Lin Yan's heart sank, and he didn't think about it at the moment. He talked about the visit of Sister Feng's son Baoyu today, and finally said: "I have already decided to visit the old lady over there in a few days. Otherwise, they wouldn't It stopped."

The emperor chuckled: "Lin Ruhai is good at everything, but he has not cultivated a good relative. Since Jia Daishan died, this Rongguo Mansion has become more and more useless. You just go, and I will give you another favor in a few days. alright."

Lin Yan wanted to ask He Endian, and knew that the emperor liked to tease people's appetites, so he only thanked him, but didn't ask.After being convicted, he wanted to leave.

The emperor thought of something, leaned closer to Lin Yan and said, "I don't care about you and Lao Jiu. It's just a word first. If you don't mean it, stay away from him and tell him as soon as possible. It's easy. Sometimes he goes crazy everywhere."

Lin Yan felt like crying, he was obviously the one who was stalked, but after hearing what the emperor said, why did he seem to be wronging his son?

Seeing Lin Yan's face flushed, the emperor was in a better mood, and finally showed mercy and told Lin Yan to leave.

On the evening of the second day, Lin Yan held a scroll of yellow silk imperial decree and looked at Situ Lan who came to deliver the decree, with a questioning look in his eyes.

"Don't ask me either. Brother Huang has always done things like this. In order to make a good impression on father, he had to pretend to be an honest leader. Now he sits on the dragon chair every day, and he is afraid that the courtiers will not accept him, so he has no choice but to pretend Make a cold face. He saw that those families in the Rong Mansion were not pleasing to the eye for a long time, but his father protected him and refused to clean up. Could he just use this time to try to deal with them? Otherwise, why would he bother to make a big show of it? The decree, so that people can say that he is a benevolent monarch, and he cares about the meritorious ministers?"

Lin Yan saw that he was clearly wearing a top-quality white gown with dark patterns of cloud brocade. If he was sitting there in a serious manner, he might not be a good man in a troubled world who has turned all sentient beings upside down?He just sat and didn't know how to sit, he just leaned against the back of the chair, one leg was bent, and his foot was on the beam of the chair.In his hand, he opened and closed a handful of jade bone fracture fans, no matter how he looked at them, no matter how he wanted to be beaten.

Thinking of what the unscrupulous emperor said yesterday, Lin Yan instantly became angry.He ordered Lin Cheng to confess the imperial decree, but he kicked Situ Lan out.

Two days later, Lin Yan guessed that the Rong Mansion was also waiting impatiently, so he discussed with Daiyu to pay a visit, and first sent someone to send a post.

Getting up early the next day, Lin Yan tidied up a bit and followed Daiyu to Rong Mansion in a car and a horse.

Stopping in front of the gate of Rong Mansion, Lin Yan looked up at the plaque that read "Imperially Build Rong Guo Mansion" hanging above the gate, and felt that what the emperor said was too correct.Jia Daishan is dead, and now it is Jia Shecheng, who is the first-class general, but still hangs the signboard of the Duke's Mansion.Isn't this stupid what is it?

Chen Sheng had already handed over the post, and a well-dressed steward came out of the corner door not long after, greeted Lin Yan, and said with a smile, "Slave Zhou Rui, Master Lin, please come with me."

As he spoke, he led people in.

Daiyu sat in the car, although she didn't show up, she really felt sorry for her brother.Looking around, this time only the corner door was opened.When I came here earlier, I could say that I was a little girl, and I couldn't walk through the middle door.But this time my elder brother is the head of the Lin family, and he has a reputation, so why can he only enter and exit through the corner door?I remember that when Aunt Xue came to her house, she opened the middle door wide and the whole family came out to welcome her.

He bowed his head in sadness at the moment, and the little bit of excitement in his heart had faded away.

Zijuan didn't know, so she looked at Xueyan, and then at the two new girls Hongling and Zixiao brought up by Daiyu's side, seeing that their expressions were also quite strange, after careful consideration, she felt that there was nothing wrong with her. If you have a clue, let it go.

After entering the Rong Mansion for a while, Jia Lian, Feng and his wife were already standing at the gate of Yi to welcome them.Lin Yan and Jia Lian went to visit Jia She and Jia Zheng, but Sister Feng took Daiyu's hand and went straight to Jiamu's upper room.

Jia Mu's place has long been full of people. Xing Wang, Aunt Xue, Yingchun sisters and Baoyu Baochai are all waiting here.

Not long after, there were footsteps outside, and Sister Feng and other girls had come in surrounded by Daiyu.

Everyone saw Daiyu swaying in from the outside, a snow-white brocade cloak wrapped around her body, and a branch of green calyx plum blossom winding upwards at the hem, which set off the originally thin Daiyu with a bit of arrogance.Her head was full of black hair, and she was wearing a bun with a plain silver hairpin inserted into it.There were two strands of hair sticking out from her cheeks, and they rose slightly as she walked, making her look even more like a delicate flower and like a willow.

Mother Jia didn't ask Daiyu to salute, but hugged Daiyu in her arms and cried, "My poor Yu'er..."

Because of this sentence, Daiyu thought of her parents who died young, and couldn't help crying.

Baoyu was still beside Jiamu and looked at Daiyu obsessively, feeling that she hadn't seen much effort in the past year. Sister Lin was taller and more elegant.When she saw Jiamu Daiyu crying with her head in her arms, she immediately became anxious and circled around the two of them, not knowing who to persuade.For a moment, he thought of Sister Lin losing her father, and having such a handsome and pedantic elder brother who was full of fame and wealth, and thought that she had wronged Sister Lin.Thinking about it, I couldn't help but also shed tears.

Sister Feng and her son Baochai were busy persuading her, and Mrs. Wang waited to wipe away her tears with Jia's mother, and then followed suit.

Jia's mother just recovered, and Daiyu met her two aunts, Aunt Xue, Yingchun and others again, and they sat down again without mentioning it.

When Lin Yan was mentioned for a while, Jia Mu and others were very curious.I also heard from Daiyu that my elder brother had already won the exam, and now he had to keep his filial piety, and he thought he would not be able to catch up in the next subject.

Sitting at the head of Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang said to Daiyu with a smile: "Miss, it's all right. It's all about etiquette and filial piety, so you can't complain. Anyway, your brother is not old, so he can wait for the next subject. "

Mother Jia glanced at her, is this also what an aunt said?It really lost the demeanor of everyone's son and mistress.

Turning to Daiyu, he smiled kindly and said, "If that's the case, it's better to ask your brother to come to our house to study with us, so that he won't be wasted at home by himself."

Before Daiyu could speak, the girls outside passed the news: "The elder master, the second master, and the second master Lian, the uncle of the Lin family, are here."

For a moment, except for Jia Mu, the whole house stood up to greet her.

The door curtain opened, and everyone's eyes lit up.
