The Dream of the Red Chamber of Huanzhu is not a dream

Xia Ningjue lived in the Lin Mansion for one month, during which time Xiao Jian and Liu Wufeng had already left for Yunnan, and the little girl found her mother very easily, but unfortunately her father had already left home, and now she is following her mother Zhen's family and grandfather Feng Su's family Living together, Mrs. Zhen wept with joy when she saw the return of her daughter who was abducted when she was young.Although that Feng Su hated the poor and loved the rich so much, and let his daughter and the girl do needlework day and night to help him survive, they were still the girl's family after all. Ask her to go by herself.

It's not that Xia Ningjue didn't sigh, but she didn't have the reason to take the little girl away so she wouldn't let her live with her family, so she just let it go, and only lied to the Zhen family that she met an eminent monk on the road, saying that the little girl——Zhen Yinglian It's better to stay away from Jinling, and don't go there until you get married and have children. I really hope that she can avoid that Xue Pan and live a safe life.

During this time, Lin Lai's family unexpectedly came to her door, insisting that Xia Ningjue should go with her to the Yamen to withdraw the case to avoid their miscarriage of justice.

At this time, Lai's family is already a servant girl of slavery, so the concierge of the Lin family will not let her in.Xia Ningjue didn't want to disturb Jia Min and others, so she went out and met Lin Lai in the gatehouse.

When Lai Shi saw her, she wanted to pull her arm, but Xia Ningjue dodged it lightly, frowned and said: "What are you doing, do you still want to murder me?"

Lai said angrily: "You uneducated little hoof, you don't know where to hide. You faked your death to deceive others, and harmed our family. Hurry up and go to the yamen with me and withdraw the case, so that my son can come back."

Xia Ningjue sneered and said: "Speaking of which, the case has been settled, and there is no such thing as withdrawing the complaint, even if the punishment is still pending, I will definitely tell you all the reasons, instigate her to be a slave, abduct and sell her master, and kill her to silence her after the incident is defeated. Such a crime cannot be judged as a crime, how can those who have servants in the world feel at ease?"

Lai was extremely angry: "Nonsense, the third family just let that girl take you out to play for two days, your abduction was just an accident, what does it have to do with my family?"

Xia Ningjue said calmly: "Is there any relationship? The magistrate has already finalized the case. Why doesn't this mother go to the magistrate to find out what happened? If the case is unjust, false, and wrongly decided, the magistrate must be very willing to give you justice."

"Hmph, a sharp-toothed and sharp-mouthed girl, she really didn't have a mother to teach her to dare to talk back to her uncle and wife?" Lai was so angry that she intended to pinch Xia Ningjue's face.

Xia Ningjue took a step back, and said to Nanny Ma who had been silent behind Lai's: "I still call your master uncle, could it be that even an old lady can come to insult you?"

Seeing this, Mama Mama quickly stepped forward and grabbed Lai Shi, but she didn't dare to use too much force. Although this Lai Shi was enslaved, she was essentially a servant like them, but after all, she gave birth to two daughters for the Lin family. Son, although the third master was exiled, the eldest son is still here.Therefore, after Mrs. Lai and Mrs. Zheng, the third grandma, were bought home, Mrs. Zheng was sent to work by the eldest grandma, but Mrs. Lai was still served by others. Mama Mama was one of them, because she was a Lai's companion.

Xia Ningjue coldly glanced at the two people who were entangled, and said: "Mother, go back and ask uncle, is it dissatisfied with the court's laws to worship a man who was sentenced to be sold into slavery as a Bodhisattva? With a humble person claiming to be uncle's wife, how will uncle and uncles deal with each other? Is the future of the descendants of the Lin family gone?"

Mother Ma was in a cold sweat when she heard that, her master acted like this, she was sure that no one would report, and the court would not pursue it, but if someone reported, it would be a matter of buying the slaves sold by the court to make offerings. Talk about great things.Moreover, the master also explained that Lai can do whatever he wants at home, but he can't let her go out. She had to let her go out because of Lai's previous lust. confessed.

After thinking about it, Mama Mama hurriedly pulled Lai back and walked back, Lai Shi still refused to leave, still scolding Mama Mama for being ungrateful and committing crimes.

Mama Mama was also very annoyed, if in the past, there was a reward for serving Mrs Lai, but now Mrs Lai has no right to be a housekeeper, and the grandmother in charge has become a grandma again, and the grandma used to treat Mrs Lai Being eccentric to Sanfang, I feel angry, and now I don’t take care of Lai Shi specially, so although Lai Shi’s food and clothing are not lacking, they are not as fine as before. She vented her anger, so the unlucky ones became the companions who were assigned to serve her.And now that I have said that everyone is the same servant, why are you still so superior?

Mammy Ma was angry for a moment, then became cruel, pinched Mrs. Lai, dragged her away, and scolded: "How can you use your identity to play tricks now? If the girl from the Xia family goes to the yamen to report on the master, you will You can only do the work of that servant, how can we still serve you?"

"You dare to pinch me? Go back and let the eldest daughter-in-law sell you out." Lai slapped her.

"Hmph, grandma is the daughter-in-law now, how could she listen to a servant like you?"

"Just because I am her aunt! Even if she takes charge of the family, she is still my daughter-in-law. With the word 'filial piety', I can crush her to death..."

"..."

The two walked away, chattering and shouting.

Xia Ningjue smiled coldly, turned around and went back to her room.

This quarrel was reported to Lin Hai and Jia Min, and Jia Min sighed: "Compared to Qinglian, this child has a colder temper."

Lin Hai was a little appreciative: "It's because Mrs. Lin Lai acted too much. If she hadn't come to the door, Ning girl would not have done anything. You didn't know that she still called Lin Su as her uncle." Is it? It can be seen that there is no kinship, just to protect yourself, it is inevitable to be tough, if you really take it lightly, I am afraid that you will not have a safe life in the future." Lin Hai did not have the slightest affection for Lin Lai, It's the Lin family, dare Xiao want him to adopt his family's children, and plot his Lin family's property?Even the nanny incident, and the head and tail of that family, if it wasn't for Xia Qinglian's sake, how could he not care about it all the time?It's a pity that they actually bought the Lai family back to raise them, and let her come to the house to make a noise and offend Xia Ningjue. Judging by Xia Ningjue's performance, the two families are affectionate, and there may not be many left.

In this way, Lin Su's family can move a little bit.

"Sister Ning, are you leaving?" Lin Daiyu looked at Xia Ningjue tearfully, and pulled her sleeve reluctantly.

"Yu'er is good. Sister Ning is going to Jinan to pay tribute to Grandma Xia. After Sister Ning and Aunt Xia finish their filial piety, shall we pick them up?" Jia Min softly coaxed her daughter.In the past month, Daiyu played with Xia Ningjue every day, cherished the booklet of stories drawn by Xia Ningjue, and had a very close relationship.Now that Xia Ningjue wants to leave, she is also very reluctant.But after all, she is well-behaved and sensible, but she never cried.

Xia Ningjue arranged for Zhen Yinglian to go home, so she intended to go to Jinan. Lin Hai and Jia Min sent someone to escort her.

Xia Ningjue hurried away all the way, so she didn't know what happened in Suzhou.

The magistrate heard that Lin Su bought the man who was sentenced to be sold by the official and refused to let him work. Fortunately, he sent someone to wait on him. He was furious and accused Lin Su of contempt of the court's laws and beat him fifty times , and sentenced to a fine of 5000 taels of silver.What's more, what the prefect said made everyone in the Lin family panic.

Prefect Qu said to Lin Su: "If Mr. Lin really hopes that all his offspring will become criminal wives, this prefect is willing to make it happen."

When Lin Su was carried home, he immediately ordered his servants to move Mrs. Lai and Mrs. Zheng to the servants' room. From then on, they were no different from lower-class servants, and there was no preferential treatment.

Lai Shi made a lot of noise, but even her own son didn't stand by her side anymore.The uncle of the Lin family was also very ashamed. He originally raised his mother secretly at home. Even if the outsiders knew about it, they would not say anything more. Now that the magistrate said that a biological mother who did not have a low status was very important to his future. The biggest damage is going out to socialize now, and you have to face the ridicule of everyone.

The uncle and grandma of the Lin family sometimes couldn't help feeling: If they hadn't bought Lai back then, as long as the father had married another wife, the matter might have passed like this.Taking a step back, if Mrs. Lai hadn't come to trouble Xia Ningjue, the matter of her being supported by the family would not have caused trouble. In the final analysis, Mrs. Lai's lack of sense of propriety made them fall into a dilemma.

Thinking about it this way, it is even more impossible for the uncle and his wife to take too much care of Mrs. Lai.

Lai's and Zheng's were really regarded as low-class servants, and even the third-class servants who could be ordered to come and go by themselves before could tell them what to do.Zheng's temperament is forbearing, but she is peaceful, but Lai's temperament is still domineering, and now Lin Su can't control her, but she has suffered a lot. Those low-class servants are used to rough work. He has a lot of strength, and he is not afraid of giving Lai a few blows when he makes a fuss.Later, when Lai saw that no one would stand up for her, and was terrified of being punished, she gradually lost her temper.But then he remembered how he ended up like this, but it was all the idea of ​​the third family, and he was just implicated, so he vented his anger on Zheng Shi, beating and scolding at every turn.

On the other hand, Mrs. Zheng still forbears, because she still pins her hopes on her own son, Lin Hui, and waits for Lin Hui to grow up to be successful, so she can take her out to live, but she is afraid that Lin Hui will recognize the eldest grandma as his mother. Forgot about her, and secretly found an opportunity to meet Lin Hui once.

When Lin Hui heard that she said she was his mother, he was furious: "I have ended up being ridiculed by others. I was originally thanks to you. I am a son and grandson, but now I have become a sinful woman. No one is willing to play with me, even the family business is not eligible to inherit, you should leave quickly, I don't want to see you."

It turned out that although Lin Hui was adopted to the eldest grandma, the eldest grandma had a son of her own, and she had no intention of raising this child to be close to herself. She only instilled in him the saying that he had a sinful wife and mother, and taught him very well. It's a low self-esteem and stubbornness, and it will not be good to compete with his son for family property in the future.

Lin Su has been in poor health since he was spanked, not to mention that he seldom manages the affairs of the back house, and he is not very clear about these matters, and the uncle of the Lin family is naturally more partial to his son. What's more, the kidnapping of Xia Ningjue and coercion of Xia Qinglian was originally done by Sanfang for Bashang Fan. He was implicated for no reason. He was already annoyed, so he pretended to be completely ignorant of what his wife was doing, and only let Lin Hui gradually change his temper. , and became extremely resentful of his parents.

Not to mention the many affairs of Lin Su's family, Xia Ningjue rushed all the way to Jinan, and seeing Xia Qinglian, the two of them hugged each other and cried.

As for Lin Hai, who kept filial piety for his mother, Ding You had been at home for 27 months, and was again appointed as the salt transport envoy from the third rank, and set off for Yangzhou to serve.
