Lin Jiajinyu of the Red Chamber

Yin Zheng.

Baozi came in with the lamp in hand and shouted.

Lin Jinyu realized that he had changed the quilt, so it was strange, but after all, Tu Jingchen was the emperor, so he didn't have the courage to ask why, what happened at night?I had to sit up and feel for the clothes to put on. Xu Ziwen also closed his eyes and let others serve him. Tu Jingchen saw that both the master and the apprentice were half asleep, and said with a smile, "Wake up, I'll go back first." Palace."

Xu Ziwen took the hot towel and wiped his face, barely opened his eyes, yawned and said, "Well, come back earlier, don't miss the morning time."

Lin Jinyu thought about whether he should send Tu Jingchen out, and after washing his face quickly, another servant stepped forward to help him comb his hair.Tu Jingchen changed directly into the dragon robe, squeezed Xu Ziwen's shoulder, winked in Lin Jinyu's direction, and said softly, "I'll come back tonight, don't worry, it's just like yesterday, my uncle won't I found it." There was no need for Xu Ziwen and Lin Jinyu to see him off, and he got up and left.

There was warmth in Tu Jingchen's eyes, and as soon as he left the door of the water pavilion, he saw a person standing upright in the corridor.Xu Junqing looked at Tu Jingchen with a somewhat sneering expression, stretched out his sleeves, and kowtowed, "I have seen my emperor, long live, long live, long live."

Tu Jingchen hurriedly said, "Hurry up and help Uncle up!" He strode forward, helped Xu Junqing up, and said with a wry smile, "Uncle doesn't need to perform such a grand ceremony. I had some official documents to discuss with Rui Zhuo last night, so I hurried over. I heard that Uncle I have already rested, so I didn't bother."

Xu Junqing said, "It is a great crime that the emperor has descended and the minister has not taken over."

Xu Ziwen heard the sound and ran out wearing a fur coat and shoes. He really wanted to cut off the tongues of all these talkative servants. Who was so careless to inform the old man? He stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, hurry back to the palace. Don't miss the morning hour."

Tu Jingchen has nothing to do with Xu Junqing, the uncle and the father-in-law, the status is there.Besides, people acted according to the etiquette, but Tu Jingchen was worried about Xu Ziwen, so he was slapped when he didn't see it for a while. According to Xu Junqing's temper, if he left, he would inevitably take Xu Ziwen to the fire, and said with a smile, "One day in the court. I can't do without Ziwen, so I will take him to court together."

Xu Ziwen really wanted to knock Tu Jingchen's head off, and if he couldn't help, he kept his words down, and said sternly, "Your Majesty, I haven't seen my father for more than ten years, and I'm honoring my father at home. There are all capable people in the court, and there is no shortage of ministers. Please return to the palace, Your Majesty."

Tu Jingchen had no choice but to worry about missing the time, so he left in a hurry.Xu Junqing gave Xu Ziwen a cold look, walked into the water pavilion, saw Lin Jinyu was there, and said angrily, "I'm too lazy to take care of your affairs. You should be more respectable as a teacher and father! How old is Jinyu?" , you just give him a role model?"

Lin Jinyu stepped forward to support Tu Jingchen to sit on the couch, and said obediently, "Master, the emperor came yesterday, there is something really wrong. What about Luo Guo's affairs, I have been nagging with my husband for a long time, and I am so noisy. I didn't sleep well either. Don't be angry with your husband. You can't do anything about it. The emperor is here, so you can't be kicked out, right? Master, you told the emperor not to let him come because you are worried about offending the master."

Xu Junqing sighed, and glared at Xu Ziwen, "Do you still want me to invite you to sit down?"

Xu Ziwen was obedient, knowing that the matter was over, he sat down with a smile, "Thank you father for giving me a seat, father got up earlier than usual today."

"When people get old, they feel less." Xu Junqing frowned and said, "Your Majesty came here so carelessly, are you also like this? The white dragon fish suit is the easiest to be taken advantage of by others, you have to know it."

Xu Ziwen smiled calmly, "Father, don't worry, I've made all the arrangements."

Xu Junqing didn't say much after hearing this.After breakfast, he ordered Lin Jinyu to study hard, ordered someone to arrange a car and attendants, and went to Nan'an Palace to visit his sister.

Because Xu Junqing promised to go to Xishan Temple to pay homage to the Buddha tomorrow, Xu Ziwen told Baozi to go to the temple to make some preparations first, and said, "Send a few boys to Xishan Temple to clean up a clean yard. The first snow hasn't melted yet. The house has not been lived in for a long time, so it must be very humid. The wing room has been smoked and roasted with charcoal-fired sesame cakes in advance, so it has no smell. The bedding has been replaced with a home in advance, so that my father can rest a little at noon. Besides, there are people on the mountain road Clean it up, otherwise there will be frozen snow on the stone road, and people will inevitably slip when walking on it." He took out a letter from his sleeve, "Give this to Master Xichen, and tell him that we are going to disturb the one-day cleaning. The silver ticket in it is a donation. Money for the incense in the temple."

Baozi took it, and said with a smile, "If the young master has no other orders, the slave will go to clean up and prepare."

"Letter, send someone safe to deliver it." Xu Ziwen said.

Baozi laughed, "Then let Niu Xiaoer go, he is the most delicate."

When Xu Junqing went out to meet guests, Xu Ziwen seldom had a leisurely moment, so he arranged things properly and ordered someone to set up a soft couch and table in the conservatory, make a pot of fragrant tea, and enjoy himself for a while.

……

When it was about to get dark, Niu Xiaoer came back and followed Xu Junqing back to the house. Xu Ziwen greeted him at the door, his eyes stopped for a while, seeing Niu Xiaoer's clothes covered in dust, his father's face was the same, he was thinking in his heart, and respectfully supported him. Xu Junqing went back to the room.Waiting with tea and fruit again, Xu Junqing took two sips of hot tea, took out a letter from his sleeve and patted it on the table.

Xu Ziwen was stunned, he understood everything, and laughed dryly, "Father is really clever, and my son admires it." Seeing that the letter paper had not been sealed, he tore it a few times first, opened the lid of the incense and threw it in to burn it into ashes, respectfully Stand to one side.

Xu Junqing flexed her knuckles and lightly tapped the corner of the Kang table, making a clacking sound.Xu Ziwen was even more disturbed, the letter was exactly what he asked Xichen to pray for Jinyu, but his father caught him right away.The letter has not yet been opened, but looking at his father's appearance, he knows about it. Could it be... Xu Ziwen was thinking about it, and heard Xu Junqing say, "The defense in the mansion is too poor. It was just Li Qing's spies yesterday, and no one noticed it. Don't you I always feel that Li Qing's martial arts are high, and there are others in this world who are really stronger than him, and it will be too late to regret it! Safety matters should not be left to chance!"

"Yes, my son will rectify immediately." Xu Ziwen replied.

Xu Junqing half-closed his eyes and asked, "Is Wenfei interested in Jinyu?"

Breathing a sigh of relief, Xu Ziwen said, "Nothing can be hidden from father's eyes."

"Hmph, both of you are useless and don't get up early. Wen Fei and I tried my best to persuade me to go to the temple to give Jinyu a fortune-telling. If he didn't have selfish intentions, how could he be driven by you." Xu Junqing's eyes lit up. Like a sword nailed towards Xu Ziwen, "You want the two of them to be together!"

The corners of Xu Ziwen's lips curled up, and he shook his head, "Father, I don't agree with Wen Fei. How could I let Jinyu be with him? It's just a coincidence that he came, and I just borrowed his hand."

Xu Junqing snorted coldly, "Jinyu, I think he has an idea, better than you. Wen Fei, you should find a way to end it. Do we have to let the Xu family fall into the hands of the disciples?" With an indifferent face, Xu Junqing said coldly, "If Jinyu makes even the slightest mistake, I can't spare you!"

"understood."

Xu Junqing said in a deep voice, "I met the Chen family boy at your aunt's house today, and I heard that King Zhongshun sent a play wine post to the two Baoyus of Zhenjia Rongguo's mansion. I'm afraid it's a grudge against Jinyu. You should pay more attention. No Don't move when you grasp it, once you make a move, you will be thunderous, and you will be killed in one blow, you must not be soft-hearted!"

Xu Ziwen was stunned for a moment, and respectfully agreed.

Xu Junqing got up and took out an old mahogany box five or six inches big from the shelf, sat back on the kang and handed it to Xu Ziwen, Xu Ziwen took it and opened it to see, it turned out to be a box full of land deeds and deeds of the paved manor, Xu Junqing looked at his son in doubt With a look in his eyes, he sighed, "This is your share. You four brothers and sisters, Ziyu Ziqing has a dowry, and you and your elder brother are left, except for the ancestral temple and the public property. Each person is half. I discussed it with your elder brother when I came. He has no objection. I have already mentioned it to Jinyu, and he agrees to adopt one of his sons to you in the future, so you will be considered a descendant."

Tears fell drop by drop into the box, and the ink on the deed was dizzy. Xu Ziwen couldn't describe his mood, whether he was wronged or happy, or relieved.

"Okay, I'm not promising at all." Seeing his son crying, Xu Junqing felt stalked in his heart, "As the head of the clan, I kicked you out of the house according to clan rules. However, you are still my son, That can never be changed.”

Wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes with plain fingertips, Xu Ziwen closed the box, knelt on the ground, held his father back, and said softly, "Since I was growing up, I have constantly caused trouble for my father and made you angry. I have never done my best in front of my parents." After a day of filial piety. My father still recognizes me as a son, it is already God's pity. I have no face to accept these things."

Xu Junqing sighed, "I can tell you are a sensible person from listening to you, but unfortunately you have never done anything sensible in your life. Until now, I still can't figure out why you can't follow the path of a normal person. Go on. Know your mistakes, don’t correct them, what’s the use? Well, don’t cry in front of me, it’s useless at all!” In terms of intelligence, Xu Ziwen is no more than ten people, but what Xu Ziwen has done is even worse. The last idiot!

Xu Ziwen raised his head, his eyes were still reddish, his brows were frowned, but he smiled, "Didn't father know that I used to admit my mistakes to fool you, and I didn't want to make my father angry. I am very happy that my father didn't blame me." , These industries should be given to the eldest brother, I have some business, enough for it."

"You bastard thing, I'll take it if I give it to you." Xu Junqing patted his son's shoulder, pointed to the chair next to him, and said after Xu Ziwen sat down, "You keep it and give it to Jinyu or the children in the future." When it came to Lin Jinyu, Xu Ziwen's heart became more vigilant after being moved, and his mouth moved a little, but he still didn't dare to tell the truth.At this time, he confessed to his father that he was not afraid of being struck down by a nine-day mysterious thunder, for fear that his life would be lost.

Xu Junqing held his son's hand and said in a warm voice, "Now our Xu family is extremely wealthy, the two empresses are both from our family, and there are three direct princes. You have four brothers and sisters, your elder brother is a concubine, and the princess and I are only in your lineage. Your eldest brother has not become an official, and the rest of my nephews, I have established a family rule, and within three generations, none of them can become an official. The Xu family is already full of flowers and flowers, and they can be safe in the future. He is tenacious and has a bright future. The best part is that his surname is not Xu. The Xu family will rely on him to take charge in the future. You arrange a few reliable people to protect him. Besides, I think he is very good You are crazy, don't tell him your life experience early, I am afraid that he will be arrogant and greedy for fun, and will not think about making progress."

Although Xu Ziwen often quarreled with his father, but at the critical moment, the two of them had surprisingly the same idea, Xu Ziwen nodded, "Father, my elder brother's third girl, don't give in easily. Talented. When we meet, we will be on the bright side and the dark side, and rely on each other, so we will be safe."

"Who?"

"Wu You, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry." Xu Ziwen said casually.

Xu Junqing frowned and reprimanded, "No, that's your own niece, you say cut off your sleeve! The third girl is smart and is most loved by your mother. Your mother will not agree."

Xu Ziwen glanced at his father, raised his eyebrows and said, "The head of the dignified clan can't even make decisions about his granddaughter's marriage. It's really embarrassing to say it!"

"Fart, who said..." Xu Junqing's voice slowed down, and she looked at Xu Ziwen with a half-smile, "Really, I just gave you a good face for two days, and you are going to start a mill."

Xu Ziwen hurriedly smiled and said, "Father, listen to me. Wu You is a very discerning man, and he is really extraordinary. His background is a bit poor, but he is very good at trying to figure out the holy will. These days, there are not many children around everyone. A young man with red lips and white teeth. Marriage and marriage, Wu You has offended too many people, and now he can gain a foothold in the court only by relying on the holy family! What he lacks is background, no family to rely on, and being alone, No six relatives, this kind of person will not neglect his wife and family, and Sanya's position is naturally stable."

Xu Junqing lowered his eyes and thought, "Wu You is already in his twenties. If he wants to get married, he will definitely not wait until now."

"If father allows, I will naturally have a way to make him take the initiative to accept this marriage." Xu Ziwen's pale lips curled into a smile, "What does father think?"

Xu Junqing was still reluctant, and said, "The third girl is only 13 years old now, and there are two years before Ji Chichi. The second girl's age is more suitable."

"No, the second girl is a concubine." Xu Ziwen flatly refused, "Father, think about it carefully, there is still time anyway."

This matter is not urgent, Xu Junqing just put it on his mind for the time being, and stood up with a smile, "I will leave for Shandong the day after tomorrow, so I don't want to offend you."

Xu Ziwen's eyes turned hot, and he was extremely reluctant, "Father has only been here for a few days, and my son has not yet fulfilled his filial piety."

"You don't want me to intervene in Jinyu's marriage, and you have to know it yourself. After the spring is over, you send Jinyu to Shandong and show it to your mother." Xu Junqing smiled, and walked out of the room leisurely to see Lin Jinyu.

Lin Jinyu was right in saying that Xu Junqing came to the capital at this time of year and lived in Xu's mansion in order to seek peace.Their father and son have been in love and enmity for most of their lives. Now that he is close to the age of hearing, he should have gone early, and what is left is a blessing.To be a human being is to be blessed.
