The Lin family of the Red Chamber has a son

Lin Yan glanced at the gift list that Lin Cheng handed over, and put it on the table.A well-dressed steward was standing in the hall, and when he saw Lin Yan coming out, he hurried up and bowed to pay his respects.

Lin Yan smiled and said, "I've never met an adult before, so I don't know how to address him?"

The steward hurriedly replied: "Don't dare to be, the villain is from Anlehou's mansion, and I came here to say hello to the uncle by the order of my Lord Hou. The Lord Hou said that tomorrow will be the Dragon Boat Festival, and I don't know what is going on in Beijing. What kind of rules are there. Now I just got some stuff and sent it here for the little brother in the mansion to play with."

Hearing this, Lin Yan understood that the things were sent to Lin Ruo.Thinking about it, he just glanced over and saw the long row on the gift list, isn't it all stuff?

It was not easy to refuse at the moment, stood up and said with a smile: "Thank you for your kindness, Lord Hou, I actually thanked Ruoer first."

He also ordered Lin Cheng to let people go down to have tea, but the housekeeper didn't even dare to say so, and followed Lin Cheng out.

Lin Yanfu picked up the gift list and read it again, shook his head and said to himself, "What does this An Lehou mean?"

There was a vague idea in my heart, but I felt that it was a little impossible, so I threw it away and didn't think about it.

At the Dragon Boat Festival, the weather was the same as the previous few days, the blue sky was cloudless, and the sun was a bit vicious from the early morning, making people unable to open their eyes.

The weather was extremely hot, and Lin Yan was not heat-resistant, so he had already changed into light gauze clothes.Even so, I still feel a little hot and unbearable.Fortunately, a lot of ice had been stored in the mansion in the past year, so Lin Yan asked someone to put it in pots and put them all over the house.

Daiyu's body has always been weak, so not only can she not use ice in summer, she dare not drink even the cooler fruit tea.So when I brought Lin Ruo over in the morning, I saw ice basins everywhere in the room, and as soon as I entered the room, I felt a coolness, not as hot as outside.My elder brother wore a long gown of white gauze, which was skipped at the waist, and he was still fanning with a jade-bone silk fan in his hand.

Daiyu covered her mouth with a smile and said, "Big brother is so cool here, you still have to fan it. It's only summer. If it's dog days, how will you feel?"

"I'm most afraid of the heat." Lin Yan smiled while fanning, "My sister is fine. I just changed my clothes for a few days. It won't be hard to think about it in the next two months. I'll ask someone to send it to my sister." The ice, my sister, remember to put it on."

Sitting at the bottom of Lin Yan, Daiyu took the tea from Biluo, took a sip with a smile, and said, "I remember. How can such a good thing not be used? It's just that I have used more this year. I’m afraid that what’s left in the mansion won’t be used by Xia Jin.”

Lin Yan smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about it. The mansion has run out, so just go outside and get it."

"Can this ice be sold?" Daiyu wondered.

"Naturally. This thing is most common in winter. Which rivers and ponds don't have it? But in summer, it's rare. Those big families don't keep it, or we don't have enough. Don’t want to buy it? Sometimes you just hold the money, and they may not sell it to you.”

Daiyu listened with relish, and chuckled lightly, "This man is too good at thinking about money."

The smile on Lin Yan's face froze, then he shook his head and laughed again: "It's a coincidence, this person who thinks about money is just not talented."

Before the words finished, Daiyu let out an "ah" and blushed.Lin Ruo laughed so hard that she almost pounded the table.Daiyu covered her face with a handkerchief, her shoulders trembled slightly, and she put down her hands after a while, her face was still flushed.

The three laughed for a while, and the sun was getting higher and higher.Because someone from Chen Sheng's family came back and said that the mother-in-law, daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law and girls in the family would come to kowtow to thank them, and Lin Cheng said that the young servants outside were also saluting to the flower hall outside.Daiyu looked at Lin Yan, and told Chen Sheng's family, "Let's tell everyone to disperse. Stand under the sun, and don't get burned."

Chen Sheng's family went out, and here Daiyu called Lin Ruo to come, and ordered someone to bring up the five-color silk thread and other things that had been prepared a long time ago. While tying it around his neck, she told him: "This is a good thing. If you can’t take it off, you will live a hundred years.” He took the realgar wine and wrote the word “king” on his forehead.

Because Lin Ruo kept calling it hot, Lin Yan sent someone to send chopped ice chips mixed with diced fruits of various colors.Snow-white ice flakes, colorful fruit dices, and emerald green jade bowls make people feel much more refreshed.

Daiyu watched Lin Yan and Lin Ruo each hold a bowl, eating with a smile on their face, and asked someone to fill a small half of the bowl, tasted it briefly, and then put it down.Seeing that Lin Ruo was going to pretend again after eating, she hurriedly asked someone to withdraw, and persuaded: "If you eat too much, your stomach will hurt."

Lin Yan also put down the bowl in his hand, and said with a smile: "If my sister can't use these cold things, I can ask someone to use cold water to wash the fruit, and I can use the cold air to make it work."

Daiyu nodded, "Brother, don't be too greedy for coolness. The spleen and stomach are the weakest in summer, and they can't stand the toss."

Here, Lin Yan's brother and sister brought Lin Ruo along for the festival, not to mention, but in Zhongshun Prince's Mansion, because this day is Situ Lan's birthday, naturally the birthday banquet has already been prepared.There are quite a few people in Situ Lan's house, they are young, handsome and handsome, plus their height, most of the molesters in the backyard are gifted by those who fawn on them. Where is there anyone who is not vying to go up and invite pets?It's just that the rules in his mansion are very strict, and people are always cold and hard-hearted. He has dealt with some unruly people in the mansion, but he never dared to disobey him.Therefore, in the past two or three years, he was still very clean.

Situ Lan's eyes were clear, but his heart was agitated.It's the right day, and Zifei hasn't seen anything to say, Situ Lan feels very wronged.If it wasn't for the Emperor and Empress Dowager who woke up early in the morning and ordered people to bring many rewards, Situ Lan would have to dress up and go to the palace to thank him.

The Supreme Emperor is only in his sixties now, and his energy has not yet reached the point of failure.Seeing the youngest son dressed in white court clothes with five-clawed python pattern, stiff and handsome, with a bit of arrogance unique to a member of the royal family in his eyebrows and eyes, he felt very comforted.Thinking of his concubine being weak all the year round and unable to leave the house for more than half a year, he asked, "Are you 21 or 22 this year?"

Situ Lan asked in surprise, "Aren't I the emperor's son? Why do you ask me about such a thing?"

Taishanghuang froze, he really didn't remember clearly.Situ Lan's mother was not from a high family background, and she herself was not favored. It seems that Situ Lan belonged to him after drinking, so he didn't love him too much when he was a child.Compared with the third prince from the direct line and the favored eldest prince and second prince, Situ Lan's treatment in front of the Supreme Emperor can be described as cold.Besides, since he was a child, he has had a temper that doesn't like anything. He has a good way of being angry, and when it comes to flattering, he has never treated anyone like this except Lin Yan when he grows up to this age.

The Supreme Emperor took a sip of tea, concealed his embarrassment, and then said with a smile: "You are not too young. Apart from a sickly princess, there is no one on stage. Let's go , take advantage of this year, let your imperial brother give you two side concubines, so you can raise a few sons earlier."

Situ Lan pursed her lips and said: "I've said this long ago. If you have a son or not, father don't worry about me. Doesn't father know what I am? It’s fine just to show off, why bother to delay two more?”

The Supreme Emperor was furious, "You bastard! You don't even want an heir?"

"No!" Situ Lan said bluntly, "If I have a son, I won't take a look at it all year round. It's the same as not having a son?"

"You, are you blaming me?" The Supreme Emperor jumped up from the large golden dragon chair.

Situ Lan also stood up lazily, and said with a smile: "Father, I have such a temper, and it's not like you don't know it. Listen carefully, just go find the eldest brother and the second brother. It's the emperor, I'm afraid And speak better than me."

The Supreme Emperor looked at his tired and lazy look, he had a headache and was furious, he waved his hand to push him away: "Get out, get out, come and piss me off once!"

Situ Lan really laughed and rolled away, leaving the Supreme Emperor sitting there staring.After a long time, he slowly leaned back on the chair and said with a wry smile: "This child, this is... Is it really my fault?"

The confidant eunuch Dai Quan, who was serving beside him, carefully looked at the face of the Supreme Emperor, and motioned to all the little eunuchs and maids in the palace to go out, and then he said with a smile: "Look at you, the emperor and the princes respect you very much." How can anyone blame you and not blame you?"

"Alas..." The Supreme Emperor sighed, "I'm old too, so I don't have the time to quarrel with them. I've been hurting the eldest and the second for so many years, but they themselves don't know how to cherish their blessings. They shouldn't grow up when they grow up. Those few are restless, only this old nine is still one-hearted with the third. Come on, let him go."

Dai Quan has served the Supreme Emperor for decades, so he naturally thought about his thoughts to the fullest - but it was because he was too idle, thinking about the previous things and felt ashamed of the Lord Zhongshun, but now only the King Zhongshun can dare to be like him Talk, just looking for something to do.

But he said that Situ Lan got out of Daming Palace all the way, and originally planned to leave the palace directly.Unexpectedly, Gao Shoujing, the head of the inner court, stopped him just at the gate of the palace.

"My lord, this is from the emperor. I know that my lord has gone to pay his respects to the Supreme Emperor, and the special servants are waiting here." Gao Shoujing said, and handed the brocade box to Situ Lan respectfully with both hands.

Situ Lan took it and was about to open it, Gao Shoujing hurriedly said: "My lord, the emperor ordered you to go back and see."

Situ Lan raised her eyebrows, and asked with a smile: "What kind of good things are kept like this? It's alright, Manager Gao, please thank Brother Huang for me."

"The slave can save it, the prince can do what he wants."

Situ Lan sat in the carriage and opened the brocade box, and the contents inside made him dumbfounded - six exquisite porcelain boxes were neatly stacked inside.The boxes are transparent after a rainy day, and the pattern of flowers on the top is the same color.The six boxes have different designs and colors.

Situ Lan's eyebrows twitched slightly, and she stretched out her hand to open one. The light pink ointment inside was impressively visible, and a sweet and greasy aroma came out.After careful identification, it is the fragrance of roses.

Gently closing the lid, Situ Lan half leaned on the cushion behind him, squinted and smiled.

At this time, it was almost noon, and it was the time when the big sun was in the sky.It has been hot for many days, and the leaves on the trees on both sides of the street are drooping.Even so, there are still many people on the street.The car was getting slower and slower, presumably he had already arrived home.

Yun Ning and others in the palace were waiting here, and even the elder brothers who were not very close to Situ Lan also came here in person, or sent someone to give gifts.

In the afternoon, there was a thunderstorm with pea-sized hail, which took away a lot of heat.

It rained for a long time, and it didn't stop until it was almost dusk, but it was not as rapid as before.

Situ Lan accepted a post earlier, after reading it, she couldn't wait, so she ordered people to prepare horses.The housekeeper was startled when he heard that he wanted to go out in such weather, but he didn't dare to persuade him very much, so he had to ask someone to prepare the chariot and horses quickly, and specially ordered two more followers than usual.

When Situ Lan got into the carriage, he ordered people to leave quickly. The carriage drove quickly, and left the city before the city gate was closed, all the way to a courtyard in the suburbs of Beijing.

The road is slippery in rainy days. Although the road is flat, it has been blackened by the time.Situ Lan jumped out of the car.There was already someone waiting in front of the car, wearing a water-blue gown, holding a green cloth oil umbrella in his hand, and the lantern hanging on the veranda behind him cast a faint halo on his body.He stood there with a smile on his face, and there was an indescribable aura in the corners of his brows and eyes.

Situ Lan's heart felt hot, she took two steps forward, took the man's hand, and called out in a low voice, "Zifei!"

Lin Yan blushed slightly, shook Situ Lan away, and turned his head away.Those who followed Situ Lan didn't enter the Yimen Gate with a wink, and only greeted them outside.

Here, Situ Lan cheekily went to pull Lin Yan again. Lin Yan coughed lightly, and said, "It's been raining all this way, right? Look, you're a little wet."

Situ Lan took a look and found that there was indeed some moisture on the robe, presumably it fell on it when she got out of the car just now.Then he smiled indifferently and said, "It's okay, it just so happens that the weather is hot."

"I still have a few undressed clothes here, you go to wash and change them first. The room is ready, let's talk when we come back."

Situ Lan only heard the words "the house is ready", and his handsome face immediately brightened like a flower.Lin Yan looked suspiciously at him suddenly laughing silly, kicked him lightly, and said, "Still going in?"

Situ Lan had never bathed in such a foolish way in her life. No flower petals or spices were of any use. She just passed through the water and hurried out to dry herself off. She changed into the clean clothes that the attendant sent her.

Long ago, a pretty girl came and led Situ Lan to Lin Yan.Pushing open the door, there is a small flower hall inside, a round table in the middle with several dishes on it, and a black silver jug.Lin Yan was not inside.

"Where's your uncle?" Situ Lan asked back.

"Grandpa went back to get something just now, and he came back as soon as he said." The little girl blessed her body and retreated.

Situ Lan went over and sat down, looking at the dishes on the table, bored to the extreme, recalling Lin Yan's words for a while, touching a small box in his sleeve for a while, and laughing wickedly.Just as he was complacent, the door was pushed open, and Lin Yan came in with a small tray, on which a large bowl of noodles was steaming.

Situ Lan's eyes widened, looking at Lin Yan's rolled up sleeves, "Zifei..."

"That's all I can do." Lin Yan put the noodles on the table, a light blue bowl, plain white noodles, emerald green vegetables, and some oily flowers in the soup. The soup is clear and fragrant. .

"I wanted to find something to give you, but where do you still lack those gold, jade and antique playthings? Besides, those are just exchanged for silver. Only this is what I made myself."

Lin Yan pushed his face towards Situ Lan, and said with a smile, "I haven't touched it for several years, and I tried to do it twice in the past few days. Try it, can you still eat it?"

Situ Lan pulled the noodle bowl over, regardless of how hot it was, she lowered her head and ate it vigorously.The noodles are indeed just average, and the taste is not surprising.He received a lot of birthday presents today, those who wanted to please him or wanted to curry favor with him, among the gifts there were many priceless things.However, who can really make a bowl of birthday noodles for himself like Lin Yan?

Lin Yan watched him pick up the bowl, even drank the soup, and rolled his eyes with a smile.

Situ Lan put down the bowl and looked straight at Lin Yan with fiery eyes.Lin Yan couldn't sit still under his gaze, his eyes drifted from side to side, and he stuttered a little, "Well, do you want to drink? I brought here specially, Wulingchun that has been stored for several years..."

Before she finished speaking, Situ Lan pulled her into her arms, and then pressed her sweet lips...
