The Heart of the Red Chamber

Mrs. Li almost searched for suitable unmarried young people in Chang'an, and finally found a suitable candidate, Yang Fei, the youngest son of the Yang Hanlin family of the Imperial Academy.Yang Hanlin has five sons in total, and the first four are already married. Yang Fei, who is fifteen this year, has just been selected as a scholar, and is about the same age as Lin Daiyu. More importantly, their family is willing to let Yang Fei and Lin Daiyu's second son adopt him. To the Lin family.

Although Mrs. Li thinks that the Yang family is a little lower, but Yang Fei is talented and knows how to work hard. Yang Hanlin and his wife are also gentle and kind, and they will not embarrass Lin Daiyu. Moreover, the Yang family has a lot of money, and the brothers are also very friendly. Harmony, Lin Daiyu doesn't need a housekeeper after she passes by, it's just reconciling her temper.

After Mrs. Li had a tacit understanding with the Yang family, she went back and talked to Lin Daiyu. After carefully analyzing the pros and cons of this marriage, she sighed: "According to Yu'er's temperament, it would be more comfortable to marry into a family with a simple population. Some, but, a family with a simple population, who would agree to adopt their sons and grandsons to people with other surnames! Although the Yang family’s official position is not prominent, they have been scholars for several generations. Yang Hanlin has also had some contacts with your father, so it must be not bad Waiting for you!"

Lin Daiyu lowered her head and listened, then whispered: "My niece listens to my aunt!"

Mrs. Li put her arms around Lin Daiyu and said softly: "Yu'er, your aunt has already drawn up your dowry list for you. In addition to two Zhuangzi and three shops, there is another 3 taels of silver, which will be used as private money for you in the future. I will leave it for you to adopt to the son of the Lin family! Don’t be shy, I told the Yang family to get married after you are old. In the past two years, Yu’er, you still need to take care of your body. The imperial physician told me before, You, you are too thoughtful! You have to think about everything, and you are always bored in your heart, which is not good for your health! Your father was still planning for you before he died, how could you live up to his wishes? Take care of yourself!"

Lin Daiyu leaned on Mrs. Li's shoulders, her eyes were red again, she suppressed tears, and said with a sob: "It's Yu'er who is not good, I made my aunt worry about it!"

Mrs. Li put her arms around Lin Daiyu and patted her on the back lightly: "We are all a family, so why not be so polite!"

After Madam Li comforted Lin Daiyu, she told Lin Daiyu to rest well, and ordered a few maidservants to take good care of her, and then she got up and left.

Xueyan waited until Mrs. Li had left, and then came over and said, "Girl, what Mrs. Li said is right, but you are too thoughtful. Although the servant girl doesn't know much about the affairs of the Jia family, she also knows. Come home, Mrs. Li is really good for the girl!" After arriving at Lin's house, because Zijuan always mentioned Jia's family and Jia Baoyu beside Lin Daiyu, after Madam Li found out about it, she calmly found an excuse and moved Zijuan to Lin Daiyu. The cuckoo was sent back to Jia's house, and the maids sent later were all honest and responsible. Therefore, the snow geese brought by Lin Daiyu from the Lin's house quickly replaced the cuckoo.Xueyan doesn't like Zicuckoo, nor does she like Jia's family, so she often has some dissatisfaction with Jia's family in her words. At first, Lin Daiyu would say a few words, but later Lin Daiyu herself saw it clearly, so she didn't say more, and acquiesced to Xue Yan's views on the Jia family.

Wang Momo also sighed at the same side: "Fortunately, the master had the foresight to entrust the girl to the Lin family here, otherwise, how could the girl be in such a situation now! Hey, don't talk about it! Girl, don't think the old woman talks too much!" It's ugly, the girl's body is worse than that of the first wife, if the girl is still the same as before, wouldn't the master's painstaking efforts be in vain! Girls, the Lin family has to be inherited!"

Lin Daiyu nodded silently. Although Wang Momo couldn't say it clearly because she was not married yet, why didn't Lin Daiyu know that if she couldn't take care of her body well, it would be difficult for her to have children in the future, even if her father made arrangements at the end of her life, it would be useless!Thinking of his father's death, he only felt sad, and couldn't even keep the Lin family's wealth. In the end, he had to be supported by the Lin family's aunt to buy a dowry that was only a little over 10 taels, including private money.She had seen the property list in Aunt Lin's hand, not to mention the antique calligraphy and paintings that were not very easy to estimate, and those Zhuangzi shops, but there was more than this amount of cash in the warehouse.

It's not that grandma doesn't love herself, but compared to Jia's family, what is she worth?Lin Daiyu smiled wryly, anyway, the money should be repaid for the kindness her grandmother gave to her mother and her upbringing, but the Lin family's aunt did her best for herself, but she couldn't repay her.

When Lin Daiyu was feeling sad, a little servant girl poked her head outside. Seeing Xueyan, she hurried over and asked, "But what's the matter?"

The little maid hurriedly said: "Sister Xueyan, just now someone from Jia's family came and said they have something to see the girl!"

When Xue Yan heard about Jia's house, she raised her eyebrows and said angrily, "What's the matter with Jia's house?"

The little servant girl hurriedly said: "It is said that the second master of Jia Jiabao was beaten, please ask the girl to visit!"

Xueyan was so angry that she turned around to look for Lin Daiyu.

Hearing Jia Baoyu's name, Lin Daiyu was taken aback, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Xueyan, I'm also engaged now, I need to avoid suspicion, go get some medicinal materials for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, let someone send them over! "

Xueyan left happily, she didn't want her girl to have anything to do with that Jia Baoyu at all.Lin Daiyu looked at Xueyan's back and sighed silently.

It has to be said that Lin Daiyu did not dislike Jia Baoyu, but she suffered a heavy blow before it fully evolved into love.

Both Lin Daiyu and Jia Baoyu are innocent people who don't care about fame and fortune. If those series of things hadn't happened, they might not be able to be a couple of gods and gods together.

However, Lin Daiyu didn't have the protection of her family, so she was wronged. She had no choice but to play a little temper with Jia Baoyu. What can an orphan girl living under the fence do.

Lin Daiyu knew that the Lin family's wealth had been embezzled by the Jia family. She didn't value money very much. What she cared about was the deception from her loving grandmother.When she was so sad that she was almost desperate, she had no other choice but to look for Jia Baoyu at that time. However, when she went to look for Jia Baoyu that day, she found that Jia Baoyu and Xiren were lying naked in broad daylight. On the bed, she didn't quite understand what it was doing at that time, but she just felt something was wrong instinctively. She listened stiffly to Jia Baoyu making fun of Xiren, good sister, good sister kept screaming, and said that she would never forget her forever. Can't live without her or something like that.

Lin Daiyu just felt disgusted. She finally understood that Jia Baoyu's low-key and sweet talk was not only with herself, but she was just one of his sisters and sisters. In Jia Baoyu's heart, what is it?

Grandmother still vaguely mentioned the matter between her and Baoyu in front of her, and her heartache turned into numbness. Fortunately, she was taken to the Lin family, and then, in the name of keeping filial piety, she never went out again.

Lin Daiyu was going to get married. I heard that Jia Baoyu got the news somehow, crying and calling to find her, and when he came to add makeup to her, Lin Daiyu felt chills in the eyes of the second aunt.

It was spring when Lin Daiyu got married. Chen Fei was a gentle and shy person, but she was very kind to her. Her father-in-law and mother-in-law were also very kind, and her sisters-in-law were not difficult to get along with. After going through so many things, Lin Daiyu only felt satisfied .

When returning to the door, Mrs. Li said that Jia Baoyu seemed to be stupid, and that Jia's house was in chaos. Lin Daiyu listened, but there was no fluctuation in her heart.Later, for some reason, Jia Baoyu married Xue Baochai.

When I got the news of the Jia family again, it was the Rongguo Mansion that was ransacked. It is said that there were many crimes. Both uncles were exiled, and the grandmother passed away immediately.

Lin Daiyu was pregnant at that time, but she just ordered someone to send 1000 taels of silver, and she didn't want to do anything more.

Chen Fei came back that day with some disappointment. He was admitted to Juren last year. He wanted to try his best to get another ranking in Chunwei, but he failed in the result. Lin Daiyu hugged her two-year-old son and comforted him softly. Anyway, Chen Fei is not that old. Big, there's nothing wrong with waiting another three years.Chen Fei is not someone who likes to get into the wrong things, so he quickly recovered, and then told Lin Daiyu that he saw the names of Jia Lan and Jia Baoyu on the list.

Lin Daiyu was taken aback for a moment, she thought that Jia Baoyu would still be the same as before, disdainful of worldly affairs, and disdainful of economic and official careers, it turned out that he would work hard, just not for her.

Jia Baoyu didn't take part in the palace examination, so he disappeared. The maddened Jia Wang even found out about her. What else could Lin Daiyu say? There is even deep-rooted hatred for her. In the eyes of the second aunt, she must be the root of all mistakes!Lin Daiyu ordered someone to send Jia Wang away, leaving her only tired.

Jia Baoyu never came back. After having a son and a daughter, Lin Daiyu became pregnant again. Thinking of her father's hope, she went to the Ci'en Temple outside the city to make a wish after the pregnancy was stable, hoping that she would be a son so that she could inherit the incense of the Lin family.When Xueyan helped her get off the carriage, she saw a familiar figure standing under the big tree outside the temple in a blink of an eye.That was Xue Baochai. She looked much older. She was wearing a clean sarong at the moment, and her hair was tied up with a cloth scarf with blue floral background. Sitting beside her was a boy who was only three or four years old With a smiling face, he is selling embroidery to those who come to offer incense.

Lin Daiyu looked at the boy who looked very similar to Jia Baoyu sitting next to Xue Baochai and playing with stones, and felt that her life in Jia's house was just like her previous life.
