Lin Jiajinyu of the Red Chamber

The Lin family really received many posts, and the housekeeper sent them to Lin Jinyu for disposal.

Lin Jinyu mostly only heard the names of these people, but knew nothing about the others.Thinking about it, if Lin Ruhai was still there, he would definitely take him to visit these old friends. Now he didn't even know how to return the gift, so he had to ask Mr. Xu for advice.

He also has a lot to ask about that Chen Jingyuan.

Xu Ziwen's bachelor's degree attendant is not ordinary, he only works on errands in the morning and returns home to rest in the afternoon.Lin Jinyu thought, his husband would be taken care of by someone without any future.

Seeing Lin Jinyu took a bunch of posts, Xu Ziwen smiled, "Come here, show me."

Xu Ziwen didn't know some of these people, so he could say something about his preference for official positions, pointing out a few people who asked Lin Jinyu to write a letter of thanks in person besides preparing the ceremony.

Lin Jinyu's filial piety is not suitable for going out to socialize, but these relationships have to be sorted out so as not to be unfamiliar.

Xu Ziwen pointed Lin Jinyu a few words, and said with a smile, "One more thing, the picture of your house is finished, I will bring it to you later, go back and have a look with your sister, if there is any change, send it to me, I will Please come here, Shan Ziye."

"What, the gentleman who drew the pattern for my house turned out to be Mr. Shan Ziye?" Lin Jinyu sighed straight away that this world is too small, didn't this guy create the Grand View Garden that has been passed down through the ages?

"He is considered a leader in this line of work." Xu Ziwen said with a smile.

"Sir," Lin Jinyu asked in a low voice, "Is Uncle Chen the king of Nan'an County?"

Xu Ziwen paused with his fingertips, then gathered up the greeting card that Lin Jinyu brought, put it neatly and said, "Why do you think he is the king of Dong'an County. Then you still have no rules in speaking?"

"Brother Mu's surname is Mu, isn't the king of Dong'an County also surnamed Mu? I guess Brother Mu may be from the royal family of Dong'an County. If he is not at the level of the county king, how can he command Master Xu?" Lin Jinyu saw that Mr. Xu refused to speak. , and said, "Even if you are a county king, you don't have to hide it from me, and you still say your surname is Chen?"

Xu Ziwen said with a smile, "If you speak to anger him, you are not afraid that he will be angry, and I will give you small shoes to wear in the future?"

"It's not Taizu's time now. I've heard that the four county kings in the southeast, northwest, and north have no military power in their hands, just like a tiger whose teeth have been pulled out." Lin Jinyu said in a low voice, "Sir, you are now a bachelor's servant. The closest to the emperor, Jane is in the heart of the emperor. It has been four years since the emperor ascended the throne. It's a matter of murder and arson that harms the heavens and justice, and if it is handled skillfully, the king of Dong'an may lose his title. When he loses his title, you can take him to the mansion and raise him."

Xu Ziwen gasped, he wouldn't be surprised if someone in court said such a thing.He knew about those people in Rongguo Mansion, and they hadn't developed such a brain yet. Xu Ziwen couldn't help but re-examine Lin Jinyu. Where did he know about these situations, and said, "You don't like him?"

"Mr. likes it, so I like it." Lin Jinyu grinned, "It's not that I spent my whole life with him, I feel that Mr. is alone, that man has a lot of wives and children, Mr. is at a disadvantage."

"Jing Yuan has Jing Yuan's difficulties. The relationship between us is not what you think." Xu Ziwen patted Lin Jinyu's head, "When we met for the first time, he said his surname was Chen, Chen Jingyuan. I have always been like this in the mansion. Calling him is not fooling you."

Lin Jinyu shrugged helplessly, "Sir, you are really soft. Anyway, if he bullies you, you tell me, I have a way to vent your anger for you."

Xu Ziwen smiled, but he didn't expect that this would lead to a dispute in the future.

Lin Jinyu happily took the garden pattern to find Daiyu, but saw that the courtyard was quiet, and Wei Yu was sitting on the porch embroidering, when she saw Lin Jinyu, she went up to meet her and led her to the side.

"What's the matter? Didn't the sisters come?"

Wei Yu grew up with Daiyu since she was a child, and she has a lot of affection, she said in a low voice, "Miss was very angry today, she didn't eat lunch, so she went to sleep."

"Well, can't the second aunt be found again?" Lin Jinyu sat in the chair, poured tea in the light rain, and said softly, "Didn't the girl drink bird's nest porridge all the time, the second wife brought a lot of bird's nest today, and said a lot If the family is in a difficult situation, gardening or something? Say how many things Miss Bao helped buy in the shop. After the second wife left, the girl turned pale with anger, shed tears for a long time before falling asleep."

"Bring the bird's nest from the second wife, and invite Aunt Sun and Aunt Li to come over," Lin Jinyu said.

Aunt Sun and Aunt Li are only in their thirties. They have clear features and are all dressed in sapphire blue cotton clothes. Lin Jinyu invited the two of them to sit down first, and said, "The two aunts also know what the second aunt said today. The aunts are all from the palace. The one who comes out of the city has good verbal knowledge. In the future, you don't need to look at the second wife's face, and you should push back. We are only staying here temporarily, even if we turn our faces and find a house to move out, we can't let my sister suffer. kind of gas."

Aunt Sun said, "I shouldn't say these things in theory, but this man's words and deeds are too sloppy, and he can't tell that he is from a family at all. Since the uncle said it, we will definitely take good care of the girl." .”

Aunt Li said, "To tell you the truth, the bird's nest given by the second wife looks good, but it is an old bird's nest soaked in medicinal water. Let's find a place to dispose of it."

The son of a bitch!Lin Jinyu raised her hand and swept the teacup on the table to the ground, smashed it to pieces, and said in a cold voice, "Aunts, please persuade my sister, it's not worth getting angry at such a person. Wei Yu, go to the second gate to find peace Send the blueprint to the housekeeper, and repair it according to the blueprint, so that they can be more careful."

Lin Jinyu took the bird's nest and went to Jia's mother's room. It happened that everything that should be there was there.

Jia Mu smiled and said, "What good things are you holding in your hand?"

"Grandmother has clairvoyance, you can guess all of this?" Hu Po moved a round stool, Lin Jinyu sat down with a smile, glanced at Mrs. Wang, and said, "The second wife may have heard that my sister eats bird's nest porridge every day. , I specially sent it over today. My sister has enough bird’s nests, so I don’t need them, so I use them to honor my grandma. Grandma has a look, the snow-white high-grade official swallows are really unbearable for ordinary people. It’s so good. The bird's nest is really rare, so I want to ask the second wife, where did I buy it? Next time, let the housekeeper go there to buy bird's nest?"

Mrs. Wang said with a smile, "Bao girl sent it, if you think it's good, just ask someone to take it. How can you buy it because of your relatives' love?"

Lin Jinyu opened the bird's nest box and put it in front of Mother Jia, a sneer escaped her lips, but her voice was soft and pleasant, "Second Wife is wrong, my Lin family has never had any contact with Xue's family, so I cannot be considered a relative. "

Seeing that Mrs. Wang and Xue Baochai's faces had changed, Lin Jinyu knocked on the box where the bird's nest was placed, and said with a "tap" sound, "No wonder, the Xue family, where pearls are like earth and gold is like iron, no one else has such good things. The Xue family has been an imperial merchant since Zihuishe was born, and the family is extremely wealthy, so it is no wonder that they can buy for the garden of the family. The second wife may not know that my sister is only at home to take care of housework, but she is not interested in these purchases. Clearly. My Lin family is a scholarly family, and the ancestral precept is that you are not allowed to do business. The ancestor of the family, Jing Anhou, once said with a smile that scholars, farmers, businessmen, and businessmen are not allowed to do business for the sake of future generations. The family built a garden for the big sister, and the house of the treasure sister I can share and relieve the second wife's worries, but my sister and I don't have the ability."

Mrs. Wang's face turned blue, she was trembling with her left hand holding the bead, Xue Baochai also blushed, Lin Jinyu smiled and said, "Grandmother, if you don't need this bird's nest, you'd better bring it back to the second wife."

Mother Jia has never seen anything. If you are young, you may not be able to see the flaws in these things, but Mother Jia knows all about the tricky things. She waved her hand and said, "Baby girl, the house buys its own things. How many of you girls are there?" Money is not easy, and it is a precious thing, take it back. Second wife, I have Lin’s bird’s nest, so you don’t need to worry about these things. Let’s leave first, Lin is not strong, Feng, please go An imperial physician, Jinyu, come with me to see your sister."

……

The three grandparents cried bitterly, and Lin Jinyu cried, "It sounds like we are close relatives, but I don't know what the second wife means. If the two aunts didn't know much, the consequences would be disastrous. Grandmother and uncles take pity on us Brother and sister, let us settle down in the mansion. I don’t know where I offended the second wife. Why bother to do such a thing? Although the Lin family’s house is older, it can still be lived in. Grandma let us go, no problem For our identity with the second wife."

Lin Daiyu's eyes were swollen like peaches, and she wiped her tears with a handkerchief, but she scolded Lin Jinyu, "Why bother to talk about such trivial matters, but make grandma uncomfortable. Even if Second Aunt doesn't like us, I can’t do this kind of thing, so I can’t say I’ve been fooled.”

Mother Jia patted Lin Daiyu's hand and sighed, "Good boy, it's rare that you have a big heart."

There are more meanings in these words. Lin Daiyu swallowed her heart because she had a big heart. This was ironic to Lin Jinyu. Lin Jinyu sniffed, "This is not bad. Fortunately, my aunt recognized it, and my sister didn't eat it. It's the second wife who came to my sister's place." What do you mean by Tixue's family? My sister and I live in the house of our first-in-law's grandmother. My younger brother is also from a scholarly family. The family of Liehou is not as good as a merchant? It is normal for the second wife to prefer her sister and niece. This is where merchants are humble. In the past, I followed my father to meet uncles and uncles. I never heard anyone talk about money. My family has never been in contact with such a family. Now it is in the mouth of the second wife. , but we are not as good as the Xue family."

"Good boy, don't hurt your eyes by crying," Jia's mother had already had a grudge against Xue's family. Although Xue Pan's beating to death was settled by the mansion, as Jinyu said, it was due to a debt of favor.There is also the matter of today's bird's nest. If Mrs. Wang doesn't know about it, how can Xue Baochai not know about it?I just don't know if Xue Baochai is uniting with Mrs. Wang to fool Daiyu?Or did Xue Baochai take these things to deceive Mrs. Wang?Mother Jia put her arms around Lin Jinyu, and also shed tears, "This second wife has never said anything serious, she is a woman, what do you know?"

Lin Jinyu raised her sleeves and wiped away her tears, and said, "This elder sister Bao pretends to be a virtuous and virtuous woman. After all, she is from a businessman, and she is always calculating. Fortunately, the second wife treats her like a daughter and treats her better than her sisters." It's okay. But she even coaxes the second wife. If the things in her shop don't know the good and the bad, I don't believe it. According to me, in such a noble family as my grandmother's house, the sisters are all top-notch scholars. Yes, and I didn’t even mention the reason for being compared to a merchant woman.”

These words hit Mother Jia's heart, the girl in the family hurts herself, but the servants of the family praise Xue Baochai, who created the momentum?Without Jia Mu's influence, Xue Baochai is a little clever, but his methods are difficult to be elegant, and his background is also limited. How can he be compared with the young lady of his own family.

Mother Jia wiped Lin Jinyu's tears with a handkerchief, and said, "Their wives have come to seek refuge, but they are pitiful and let them live in the mansion. Good boy, you are my lifeblood. I can still protect you, and I can't let you suffer wronged in vain."

After a while, the imperial doctor came, and everyone stopped their tears. They asked the imperial doctor to feel Daiyu's pulse and prescribed a prescription. Mother Jia persuaded her a few more words before she went back.In the evening, Yuanyang sent a lot of antiques and toys, so the matter was exposed.
