Lin Jiajinyu of the Red Chamber

The seventh prince felt that he was really destined to clash with Tu Wenfei.

The seventh prince is the son of the current empress, and Tu Wenfei is the son of the former empress.

And Tu Fei is a few years older.

In the beginning, the Seventh Prince didn't pay much attention to Tu Wenfei, for no other reason, Tu Wenfei was not favored.His father doesn't like Tu Wenfei, he pretends that Tu Wenfei doesn't exist at all. Although Tu Wenfei lives alone in the most exquisite courtyard of the palace, no one wants to talk to him except the seventh prince's own mother, Princess Rong back then. he.Later, a person came to teach Tu Wenfei to study, hey, Tu Wenfei's life was not more miserable but the most miserable. After studying, he was often beaten until he dared not stand on the bench, and he was hungry from time to time. Of course, he learned these things from his mother. I heard it from my grandma.Later, the mother asked that lady to teach him to read. The Seventh Prince was so young that he was so frightened that he fell ill. Only later did he find out that the master was his omnipotent uncle, and he regretted it for the rest of his life.

It stands to reason that the mothers of the two are sisters of the same mother. Even if they have a natural sense of hostility, they should at least pretend to be brothers and sisters, but the seventh prince can't pretend.It's not that there is something wrong with the Seventh Prince, it's really that Tu Wenfei is abnormal, don't look at this kid who looks like a human being, he was born looking up at people from under the brow bone, and if he doesn't speak, his eyes are so gloomy!It's too much for anyone.

Later, I don't know when Tu Wenfei met everyone and smiled three points, but the Seventh Prince's psychological shadow was always polite to this elder brother.After their father ascended the throne, the prince was promoted to a prince. Tu Wenfei didn't live in the palace for a few days, so he lived in a separate mansion. After getting married and having children, he didn't have any job.No one took him seriously.

But this person's luck is irresistible, and Tu Wenfei's luck comes from Lin Jinyu.

When Tu Wenfei first came into contact with Lin Jinyu, the Seventh Prince also knew that he went to see Lin Jinyu on purpose. At that time, Lin Jinyu was fat, round and tender, and not tall. She was cute enough, but it was really difficult. Let someone do it.At that time, Lin Jinyu was just a petty man, except for having a good master, and the seventh prince was young and conceited, he felt that Lin Jinyu didn't take Lin Jinyu seriously.

Unexpectedly, Tu Wenfei took advantage of Lin Baozi's light to prosper.

Now who dares to underestimate Lin Jinyu, how many people want to curry favor has no way out, everyone knows that the fourth prince is quick to act and has no room for others.The Seventh Prince has been depressed because of this matter, but he didn't expect the heavens to open up, and the two fell apart.Tu Wenfei's miserable appearance these days made a group of brothers very happy.Anyone with bright eyes and courage knows that the opportunity has come.

Even if you can't win over Lin Jinyu, as long as he remains neutral, it's better than helping someone else!

Lin Jinyu and a group of adults had just got off work from the cabinet and were about to go home when they saw a red-painted food box on the small table in the car. Lin Jinyu lifted the car curtain and asked, "Ping An, where did this come from?"

Ping An felt a bit uncomfortable, so he rode his horse out of the car window, and said in a low voice, "The housekeeper of Prince Rui's Mansion sent it. The younger ones said no, but Butler He put his head down and left without saying a word, so we can't throw it away." Well. Let’s see, sir, maybe it’s something important.”

Lin Jinyu took off the lid, and saw that there was a lot of crushed ice in a large thin copper bowl, and a snow porcelain bowl with a lid was placed in the middle of the ice cubes, and when he opened it, there was a bowl of assorted fruit soup that was steaming , there are lychees, jackfruit, bananas, apples, peaches, lotus seeds, etc., as well as the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus. Lin Jinyu swallowed his mouth water when he came out to see such a bowl of iced fruit soup wrapped in thick material official clothes on this hot day.Just thinking that it was Tu Wenfei who asked someone to deliver it, she clenched her fists, Lin Jinyu closed her eyes and closed the food box, she couldn't be so spineless and still eat other people's food after breaking up with her.

Eat people with short mouths.

Lin Jinyu was naturally afraid of heat, even if there was an ice basin in the car, it would almost melt. Lin Jinyu simply held the big copper bowl of ice in his arms to relieve the heat, since he would not eat Tu Wenfei's food anyway.But for some reason, Lin Jinyu always felt the scent of sweet-scented osmanthus wafting into her nostrils. Now that she ate it, she felt so comfortable. There was no one in the car. Lin Jinyu swallowed a few saliva, feeling great hatred Tu Wenfei.

Once at the door of the house, Lin Jinyu pretended not to care and said to Pingan, "There is a bowl of fruit soup in the car, share it with Jixiang." He cursed Tu Wenfei again with viciousness in his heart.Lin Jinyu is not a young man in the rebellious period. Even if he broke up, he would not be able to throw his good intentions to the ground, not to mention such a delicious fruit soup that makes people's index fingers twitch.

When Xu Yulin saw Lin Jinyu go back to the mansion, she ordered the maids to take care of her and change into official uniforms. Xu Yulin asked, "Do you want to eat now, sir?"

"Do you have a bowl of iced fruit soup? It's too hot." Lin Jinyu thought that he was not short of money, and the cook at home was not bad, so why would he eat what Tu Wenfei gave him? Backbone?

Xu Yulin shook her round fan and laughed, "It's not a coincidence, today there is only sour plum soup, which is easy to get, but it will take some time to chill it, so let's drink sour plum soup first to relieve the heat, I told them to prepare fruit soup in the evening. "

Torreya served the sour plum soup, and Lin Jinyu drank it upright. Xu Yulin smiled and said, "Today, a post was sent from Duanjunwang's mansion. The twelfth of this month is Duanjunwang's birthday. Please come and have a drink."

Lin Jinyu nodded, and handed back the empty bowl to Torreya, "It's not enough, Torreya, go and bring me another bowl."

"The Empress ordered someone to order me to come into the palace tomorrow to talk." Xu Yulin leaned on the couch, and glanced at Lin Jinyu with a smile, "Is it Xiumu tomorrow? Afraid someone will come to the door?"

Lin Jinyu rubbed her forehead and moaned, "I'm hiding at Mr.'s house."

"Can I hide for a while, can I hide forever?" Xu Yulin smiled, "Thinking about it now, although I don't like King Rui very much, it is a shield when he is around. We can still have a quiet life. But you don't have to If you worry too much, it will be obvious if the backstage is hard. It is also common for others to meet by chance or send a representative, and now I will never ask you to do anything, but first make a good relationship."

Lin Jinyu frowned slightly, "Seventh Prince, after his birthday, please make a confession for me, and just say that I am not good."

"I listen to the uncle." Xu Yulin tilted her head and looked at Lin Jinyu, "The jade has already been sent to the second cousin by the housekeeper, and the grandmother and others are very grateful. I just heard that the grandmother is not feeling well, and I want to see the uncle."

"What's there to see?"

"When a person is about to die, his words are good." Xu Yulin persuaded, "Grandmother is also in her eighties, since she said this, it is to save my mother's face. , just go and have a look."

"Prepare some supplements and medicinal materials."

===========

Lin Jinyu was the first to come to the Jia family's residence after being ransacked. Although the king of Beijing presided over the trial, there were many biases in the case, but the king of Beijing would never lose his head to whitewash the Jia family and slap the emperor. However, the downfall of the Jia family was doomed at the moment the house was raided.

All members of Jia's family live in a small courtyard with two entrances. At this time, there are no maids and servants. Mrs. Xing and others are all dressed in Jingchai cloth skirts, and their glory is gone.Jia amnesty and Jia Zhen were dispatched. Jia Zheng and Jia Lian were the only ones who could be in charge of the big Jia family.

Lin Jinyu hasn't seen Jiamu for a long time, the last time we met was at Lin Daiyu's engagement banquet, at this time Jiamu still had snow-white hair, a yellowish complexion, drooping lips, with an old man's breath, half asleep Lying on the bed covered with a quilt covered with dry grass, Mrs. Wang Li Wan whispered a few times, then Jia Mu slowly opened her eyes, looked at it for a while, nodded slowly, and struggled to sit up. When she got up, Madam Wang and Madam Xing quickly supported her, and stacked two pillows behind Jia Mu's back. Jia Mu glanced at Jia Zheng and others, and said calmly, "Go out first."

After everyone retreated, Mother Jia pointed to the chair beside her, and Lin Jinyu went to sit there, but she just looked at Mother Jia quietly, without speaking.Mother Jia sighed, "You are not like your father."

Lin Jinyu curled her lips and smiled, "How dare I compare myself with my father?"

"No." Mother Jia shook her head, "You are stronger than your father, you are better at means, and you can be an official... I asked you to come, because I want to see you again, knowing that you hate me, and I still want to see you before you die. You, when you are underground, you can tell your mother about your recent situation, and reassure her... Also, your uncles escaped danger, thanks to your help... I also want to thank you."

"Grandmother is being polite, I will do what I have to do naturally, even for the sake of my mother, I will not stand idly by because of my relatives."

Mother Jia sighed, "The Jia family was defeated by me... I am ashamed of my ancestors and your grandfather's painstaking efforts. Since ancient times, a single tree cannot grow into a forest. You must have someone in the court." Zhi Ying... The second wife is sorry for you, she is short-sighted and ignorant, but since you came to the capital, your two cousins ​​have never been rude to you... Lian'er didn't like to study since she was a child, but she was mellow in foreign affairs and still There is Baoyu, who is spiritual in studying. Although he is not as good as you, he will achieve success in the imperial examination in the future... You are relatives, uncles and cousins, are you not better than outsiders? Jinyu, my grandmother has nothing else to ask for, but I only ask that you brothers and sisters have mutual respect. Take care of the help..."

Lin Jinyu said softly, "You two cousins ​​are extraordinary. I have only been an official for a few days, so what do I know? Cousin Lian has a father-in-law like Lord Wang, not to mention Cousin Baoyu, who is Lord Wang's nephew. Mr. Wang is elegant and wise, with a little guidance, the two cousins ​​will naturally have a bright future."

Mother Jia's eyes turned cold, she stared at Lin Jinyu, her voice trembling, "Don't you want to?"

Lin Jinyu's face was a little relaxed, and Jia's mother quickly calmed down, "I know, your father-in-law's family is very powerful... But since ancient times, it has been a taboo for foreign relatives to interfere in politics. It's not good for officials to be cunning and leave more ways for themselves?"

"I don't need my grandmother to worry about that!" Lin Jinyu interrupted Jiamu's words politely, "When I first arrived in Kyoto, I never saw my grandmother not caring so much about my future. Don't bother me! I'm a petty official of the fourth grade, I do some odd jobs, and I receive my salary to support my wife, so I don't have to do anything that is taboo, and I don't need to be cunning!"

Mother Jia had never heard such cold and tough words, she was so angry that her eyebrows and eyes stood upright, she was speechless for a long time, and pointed at Lin Jinyu for a long time, "I really don't know why I can't help you, let you guard against Jia like this." Family, although your mother has been married far away for many years, until... until the end, she never saw each other... But I treat you siblings the same as Baoyu..." As she spoke, she burst into tears.Seeing Jiamu's attitude, Lin Jinyu said coldly, "Grandmother really doesn't know how to be sorry for me?"

"It's fine if you don't know." Lin Jinyu glanced at Jiamu's old face with a half-smile, "Then tell grandma directly, you also said that I am not like my father, especially my temper, and I am not as gentle and elegant as my father. The Jia family has done their best. Grandmother, don't think that you can speak casually when the emperor follows up. Mr. Wang and I both risked losing our official position to transfer the case of the Jia family to the King of Beijing. I will do this This matter is not for the sake of my grandmother and uncle's cousin, but for my mother who has passed away! Grandma, my mother will still benefit your family even after she passes away, you should be satisfied!"

"If you think I, Lin Jinyu, are ruthless and unjust, just go outside and talk about it! I'm done talking here, and I'm leaving."

Lin Jinyu really felt that Jia's mother was out of her mind. Did she think she was still the first-rank duchess in the Rongguo Mansion?Even if you rely on your seniority, you have to weigh your own virtue before you speak!How dare he pretend to be an elder and ask him to take care of Jia's family. After all, it's for Lin Jinyu's own good, what a load of bullshit!When he plotted against their siblings back then, why did he ever think about the identity of his own grandmother!

Lin Jinyu withdrew, Jia Zheng and others were outside, and now that the courtyard is narrow, everyone probably heard it clearly, and his face was not very good-looking, so Lin Jinyu greeted carelessly and left.

The whole family is mentally ill!

Lin Jinyu left in a huff, and Jia's mother passed out directly. Fortunately, the old ginseng sent by Lin Jinyu took a dose and hanged her life.Jia's family is really good at calculating, now their own family can't do it, they can't be counted on, and they are not reconciled to this defeat. The only relative who can talk is Wang Ziteng.However, Wang Ziteng has always been cautious, not to mention that Wang Ziteng is getting older, and Lin Jinyu is the rising star.As long as Lin Jinyu has the heart to pull the Jia family a little bit at this season, even though the Jia family is not as good as before, at least they won't lose sight of everyone.

Unexpectedly, Lin Jinyu decided to go so far.

Jia Mu's old tears rolled down the corners of her eyes and wet a small piece of pillow. Mrs. Wang hurriedly persuaded, "Don't be sad, old lady, there are also Lian'er and Baoyu. Lan'er also told him to study hard for the imperial examination, and he will be promising in the future." , to shine on the lintel." Jia Zheng and others worked hard to relieve Jia's mother.

Lin Jinyu came to Jia's house with the last of patience, but unexpectedly this family really belonged to vampires, they only followed their soft-hearted greetings, and they would not stop until they killed you!Missing home, but at this hour, I guess Xu Yulin didn't go back yet.

Walking around to Xu Ziwen's door, I met my big enemy right away - Tu Wenfei was holding the parasol that Lin Jinyu gave him last year and was about to enter the door.When Tu Wenfei saw Lin Jinyu, his face burst into a smile, his affectionate gaze matched with that painted face and painted umbrella made Lin Jinyu feel dazed for a moment.

"Jinyu, why are you here?" With a surprised and delighted tone, he took a few steps forward, put the umbrella on top of Lin Jinyu's head, and stretched out a white jade-like hand to help Lin Jinyu get off the car.Lin Jinyu knocked off Tu Wenfei's attentiveness with a "slap", and jumped to the ground by herself.

Even though Lin Jinyu ignored him, Tu Wenfei was very happy to walk side by side with Lin Jinyu. Lin Jinyu really wanted to throw that obtrusive umbrella on the ground and trample it to pieces. He had the foresight.At the beginning, seeing that Wu You was propped up to look good, he hurriedly spent money to order an identical umbrella for Tu Wenfei. It really made a couple's umbrella for adulterers!

Seeing these two people entering the door together, Xu Ziwen was a little surprised, and Tu Jingchen asked without changing his face, "Why did you come here together?"

After the two saluted, Tu Wenfei smiled, "I met in front of my uncle's house. My son came to pay my respects to my grandmother."

Xu Ziwen put the collection of poems in his hand aside, and said casually, "That's really unfortunate, my mother has gone into the palace."

"My nephew pays respects to my uncle." As he spoke, he bowed his head, and Lin Jinyu scolded "flatterer" in his heart.

"Your Highness is really a shameful minister." Xu Ziwen patted Lin Jinyu's head, not giving Tu Wenfei any face, but Tu Jingchen said, "Isn't this what it should be?" To Tu Wenfei, "You didn't How sensible, it’s not too late to understand now.” He didn’t mean to help Tu Wenfei, it’s because Tu Wenfei has been depressed for two months, and just now he’s back to normal, so Tu Jingchen took it as a word of encouragement son.

Xu Ziwen asked Lin Jinyu to sit beside him, and said with a smile, "The kitchen has iced fruit soup, milk strawberry ice and sour plum soup, do you want to eat?"

"Fruit soup." Lin Jinyu was dressed more formally for going to Jia's house, got up and said, "Sir, do I still have my clothes? I'm going to change into a thinner robe, it's too hot."

"It's in the closet in the small room." Xu Ziwen only put more clothes of Tu Jingchen and Lin Jinyu here.

Lin Jinyu went to change clothes, Xu Ziwen stared at Tu Wenfei with a smile and sized him up, his gaze was extremely explicit and penetrating, Tu Wenfei grew up being beaten by Xu Ziwen since he was a child, and knew that Xu Ziwen was not very happy, he was used to it. Sex stands out.

"Jinyu will go to Yunnan to take up the post next month."

This sentence fell on Tu Wenfei's head like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, stunned Tu Wenfei, the blood color faded from Tu Wenfei's face in an instant, he stared at Xu Ziwen dumbfounded, and took a while to shake the sweat in his palm, "Uncle , are you willing?"

"This is an opportunity to practice, and if you don't want it, you have to." Xu Ziwen patted Tu Wenfei's shoulder with curved lips, "I don't know what will happen in three years, huh? The boundary of Yunnan is different from that of Beijing. There is a mixed ethnicity, and men and women are very enthusiastic. There is a boundary, women do not need to get married at all, as long as the windows are opened at night, men enter through the window room in the middle of the night, and leave before dawn after lingering. The customs and etiquette are very interesting. "

Tu Wenfei said softly, "Because of me? If uncle wants to separate us, don't ask Jinyu to go there, it's too far away, he's still young, and it's not safe. Me, I'd like to go."

"It's difficult to serve the court. What are you afraid of? I went there when I was young. It's a beautiful place with picturesque mountains and green waters." Xu Ziwen smiled. You made a new love and abandoned Jinyu. Looking at your face, I really misunderstood you, thinking that you have no more love."

Tu Wenfei's mind has already started to mess up, his heart is burning like a fire, Xu Ziwen can completely call the shots for Lin Jinyu, even if Lin Jinyu doesn't want to go, Xu Ziwen tells him to go, he has to go, Yunnan?A place that Tu Wenfei never thought about, a barbaric and desolate place, Xu Ziwen's heart has always been three points harder than a rock, I am afraid it is true.Tu Wenfei was anxious, feeling that Xu Ziwen was really a cold-hearted, cold-blooded animal, so he said a little bit indiscriminately, "How old is he, and my uncle sent him to that far away place! He died of illness twice within three years. Governor, Jinyu grew up with fine clothes and good food. She traveled all the way and was not acclimatized. I don’t know when I will die, and it will be too late to regret it! My uncle is selfless, so let’s do something for my niece.”

Xu Ziwen became angry when he heard Tu Wenfei's words, and sneered, "You are not here to greet me, but to cheer me up! Are you unhappy to see me living a happy life, eh? Don't think I don't know you What kind of idea is it! Give up your mind as soon as possible! Get out!"

Tu Wenfei's face flushed red, he had to wait for Lin Jinyu to come out and ask what happened.Xu Ziwen patted the table, "You are waiting for a reward!"

Xu Ziwen's prestige was so strong that Tu Wenfei trembled in his heart, he suppressed his temper and got up to apologize to Xu Ziwen, Xu Ziwen waved his hand and said, "Forget it, you go back, I can live a few more years if I don't get angry a few times."

Tu Wenfei could only swallow his anger and retreat.
