[Red Mansion] Daughter-in-law's counterattack era

After Li Wan bid farewell to leave and Jia Min arranged for her daughter, she fell into deep thought.After a long while, Jia Min said to her nanny: "Grandma, do you think the method that the girl from the Li family said is useful? Yu'er is still so young, and the girl's family is not as cheap as her brother." As the saying goes In the boudoir, the girl's family usually only takes a word after getting married in Jiji. "If it's useless, the daughter's family has written characters early, and it will inevitably look weird."

"I'm afraid there is some truth to it. Children with clean eyes can often see many things that adults cannot see. In addition, brothers and sisters from wealthy families have high lives, and sometimes there will be narrow-minded ghosts. The child is given a cheap name in order to make a living." Mammy thought for a while and said.

"I know the cheap name. But what does it have to do with the same word?" Jia Min's thoughts are still not clear.

"My dear girl. What kind of family does the girl from the Li family come from! Their master is the Imperial Academy Jijiu. If his elder brother takes a cheap name and calls him a dog leftover, it would be a joke." said the nanny. , "Didn't the girl say that there was a word called "Qu" or "Gong" before? The Li family chose a word for the brother in the family in advance. Isn't that the difference from a cheap name?"

"Oh! I see, it's the same as the saying goes. It's all about preventing that narrow-minded ghost from making trouble." Jia Min suddenly realized.But after a while, Jia Min became worried again: "Our master is the most polite and polite, I'm afraid he won't give Yu'er a word early."

Lucao waited for Daiyu to fall asleep and told the little girl to watch over the bed. Then she came to Jia Min, just in time to hear what Jia Min said.

"Ma'am, please let the slaves talk too much. I often hear people say, 'poor parents in the world'. Since the master of the Li family made an exception to choose his brother's name early for his brother's healthy growth, why didn't our master give it to him in advance? Sister Yu is choosing characters."

"Yes, if the wife doesn't say anything, how can she know that the master won't agree." Nanny persuaded with Lucao.

Previously, Li Shoucheng, the second master of the Li family, was appointed as a Tongzhi and assisted in managing the salt administration in the south of the Yangtze River. He took on the pressure of the salt merchants below, which not only brought danger to his own family, but also caused a burden to Lin Ruhai, the salt censor.Now, in the name of Li Shouzhong, Li Shoucheng and Lin Ruhai got connected. This is not only a good thing for the second wife of the Li family, but also for Lin Ruhai.

After solving a major matter on his mind, Lin Ruhai returned to the inner house with a happy mood, and seeing his wife looking at him with eyes full of expectation, Lin Ruhai not only joked a few words: "Min'er seems to be in a very good mood today. , Could it be that there is a favorite jewelry in the Baojin Building, or a new style of clothes in the Cuijin Pavilion?"

"What are you talking about, master? Is this concubine the kind of person who only pays attention to clothes and jewelry?" Jia Min gave Lin Ruhai a shy look, and then said seriously: "Now I really have something to discuss with the master, and I want the master to come call the shots."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"The girl from the Li family came to visit today and mentioned her elder brother. She said that her elder brother was not born strong, but now he is very healthy..." Jia Min told Li Wan what she said, just like her own nanny Explained, summed it up together, and then told Lin Ruhai all about it.

Scholars mostly believe in silent words, strange powers and chaotic spirits. At first, when Jia Min talked about narrow-minded ghosts and cheap names, he felt a little displeased. When Jia Min talked about the relationship between words and cheap names, he shrank The brows were finally untied: "Don't mention the humble name again. Our family Yu'er is so clean, how can I use those dirty words to defile it."

"Master!" Jia Min was in a hurry: "The concubine was talking about giving Yu'er a name, and she didn't say that she would use a cheap name for her. Even if the master is willing to use such a name, the concubine will not be able to call it. Our Yu'er's temperament, she must be ashamed to death."

"Min'er, don't be in a hurry. My husband didn't say that I wouldn't give Yu'er a character. Brother Shouzhong's mother was ordered by the first rank, and the virtuous life was spread far and wide back then. I'm afraid their family's plan for choosing characters is possible. It's just that ..."

"Just what?"

Lin Ruhai thought a little deeper than Jia Min: "It's just that the world is a little more tolerant of a man's body than a daughter's. The little brother is afraid that he won't be able to grow up. If he chooses a word early, people will listen to it. But if it's a sister, I'm afraid It’s the rumors that came early, saying that the body is weak, like a paper beauty lamp, and it’s useless. So we still have to be cautious when choosing words for Yu’er.”

Jia Min became even more anxious: "Then what should I do? Yu'er is weak in body, if she gains this level of fame, then she will not marry."

"Min'er, don't panic." Lin Ruhai patted Jia Min's hand reassuringly: "The word still has to be taken, but we can't talk about things like narrow ghosts. I, Ruhai, took the word my grandfather when he was there." Yes, or it could be said that Yu'er's grandfather had written a word for his grandson before he passed away, so as to express his regret that he never saw his grandson."

My daughter’s choice of characters is not as particular as that of boys, as long as it sounds good, has auspicious meanings and good meanings, Lin Ruhai thought for a while and said: “Well, let’s say that the grandfather chose a character for his grandson. The older brother is called Ying'an, and the older sister is Ying'an."

The word Ying'an is just making up numbers, and to round up this idea, Ying'an is what Lin Ruhai has spent all his time thinking about, so Jia Min asked, "What is the source of Ying'an?"

"It's not a complicated idea. It's just that ying has the meaning of surrounding, which means that our Yu'er will live in peace. Besides, there was a virtuous woman Tiying in the Han Dynasty, and Tiying saved her father. It has been passed down through the ages. Our family Yu'er is filial. Can bear the word lingering." Lin Ruhai explained to Jia Min carefully.

"Ying'an." Jia Min chewed these two words repeatedly: "Sure enough, the master thought of it, and it really feels a little bit to taste it carefully." Jia Min looked at Lin Ruhai with an admiring expression.

"That's not it!" Lin Ruhai twirled his long beard: "I, Lin Ruhai, I am also the Tanhualang handpicked by the sage, and it is more than enough to give our family Yu'er a name."

"Master!" Jia Min twisted the soft flesh around Lin Ruhai's waist: "Is it more than enough to write for my daughter?"

"Min'er, don't blame me. You said something wrong for your husband, and you didn't think carefully about it." Lin Ruhai endured the pain and softly said.

"Huh!" Jia Min said after a while: "Old lady Li is a virtuous person, but isn't my mother? My mother is still a dignified and dignified lady of the state." After all, Jia Min praised Lin Ruhai before The Li family didn't like what they said, and now, taking advantage of Lin Ruhai's softening, they wanted to get back the scene.

But Lin Ruhai's reaction was not what she expected.Lin Ruhai said calmly: "Old lady Li was a widow in her early years, and she trained two brothers, Shouzhong and Shoucheng, and let them pass the Jinshi examination and become officials in the court. This is a great merit."
