Ai Ruo's life in the red mansion

Chapter 178 Lonely, Empty, Cold

What Lin Hai wanted was this effect, he knew very well how much money these elders had cheated.What he said today was well prepared, and he had written a manuscript before.After carefully deliberating every word, he must be like Ai Ruo, who hits the mark with one hit.

In fact, I also blame these elders for so many years so smooth, without any sense of crisis, otherwise how could they make low-level mistakes that are black on the outside and red on the inside, because they really didn't take it to heart.But at this time, Lin Hai's sudden attack was really not prepared at all.When they wanted to go back and prepare again, the tribe had already surrounded them.

The elders were almost hereditary, so the account book was very easy to find, and it was sent directly to the yamen, and Lin Hai really didn't show up.However, one of Lin Hai and Jia Zheng is a Tanhua in the previous office, and the other is a Tanhua in the new department. They are both future pillars of the court.The little Gusu yamen accepted the case, and people didn't need to ask Lin Hai and Jia Zheng what they meant, they knew what they meant.So it was judged directly.People have reason and evidence, this kind of case really doesn't need to ask any more questions, the family property is confiscated, the family property is returned, and the person in charge is exiled for thousands of miles.

It seems that the sentence is heavy, but looking at the recovered family property, none of the clan members sympathized with them.You must know that because they are the elders of the clan, they have the right to distribute, and sometimes the clan power is beyond the control of local officials. They represent a family, and they enjoy the supreme power within the family.

For example, the Lin family in Gusu has lived in Gusu for hundreds of years, and the family has hundreds of people. They all listen to these elders. They have the power of life and death in the clan. It’s not that they really have anything, or that sentence, economic The foundation determines the superstructure. They control the resources of the whole clan. If the clan wants to get resources, they have to obey.Slowly, the relationship between the upper and lower layers was formed.In the end, those at the bottom became existences worse than slaves.When the halo is gone, they should be the same as themselves, but they are pretending to be powerful, but instead trample themselves under their feet. The angry relatives can really tear them up and eat them.So even if you get a light sentence, you won't be able to come back.

Although the elder's family members were not sentenced, Lin Hai also knew that they couldn't stay here any longer, so he bought their house with money, and let them move out of Gusu. As for where they went, he didn't care.Of course, these people won't appreciate him anymore, and I don't know how to hate him.But Lin Hai didn't care. To him, these people were like the mountains between him and his clansmen. Only when they were moved away could he be truly accepted by the clansmen, and he could stay here.

The money stolen by the elders and the others was brought back from the yamen and returned to the public account.As for Ai Ruo, she lent out her accounting office, and all her senior executives have received professional financial management courses.Sort out the accounts of the clan over the years for him, and allocate resources according to the needs of the clan.People's predicaments have to be resolved first.Of course, this is also an attitude, showing that he is the patriarch, and he is the patriarch who really cares about the tribe.

And Jia Zheng's favorite thing to do is to run schools. Wherever he goes, he likes to look at other people's schools. The south has a prosperous academic atmosphere, and there are schools everywhere.Now that Lin Hai is going to run a school by himself, of course he has to watch from the sidelines. The Lin family has been noble for several generations, and they themselves have been scholars for several generations.Of course, not every scholar can teach, otherwise, throughout the ages, there have been so many scholars, but few have truly become great Confucians.

The Lin family has no shortage of students, husbands, or money.But what to do, Jia Zheng has his own idea of ​​running a school, and the Lin family also has the idea of ​​running a school of the Lin family, so these two filial men who have nothing to do finally have something to do, so sometimes Ai Ruo is very speechless, waiting for Jia Zheng to go home every day When eating, she always felt that a man really can't have a career, and then she couldn't help but think of her former husband. He didn't give up his career, but how did they allocate their time at that time?Ai Ruo couldn't help but patted his head lightly, why did he think too far.

The little idiot ran over, jumped and patted Ai Ruo's forehead, and they were the only ones at home now.Jia Zhu naturally followed her father, and besides going to school, she also followed the Lin family's children, wandering around, so don't live too happily.There is no time to go home, as for Jia Yuan, Jia Min is here, can Jia Yuan still be at home?

Lin Hai has clan affairs to deal with, he has to manage clan studies, and he has to be a good patriarch, visiting the poor and asking the poor. Even Jia Zheng doesn't have time to talk to that Ai Ruo. Can Lin Hai talk to Jia Min?

Jia Min married to the Lin family, and for more than a year, she actually has a deeper affection for Lin's mother than Lin Hai.She has gone through so many things, and Mother Lin has been with her all the time. During the incident, she kissed her mother, and the image of Mother Lin suddenly became taller. The death of Mother Lin was a serious blow to Jia Min, and she cried several times. faint.It's no different than a dead mother.

When they were in Beijing before, they had no hope, so the couple really supported each other, so they could still hold on. When they arrived in Suzhou, maybe Lin Hai felt that Jia Zheng and his wife had come, and Jia Min was accompanied, so he did it with confidence. It's his own, Jia Min felt that he had collapsed.

Ai Ruo broke down even more, because it was just her mother-in-law who died. Are you serious?If Jia's mother is not here now, although she can't be happy to set off firecrackers, she really can't cry like this. Could it be that she is really not as kind as Jia Min?Well, God, forgive me, I'm a sinner!But everyone is guilty before God, it just depends on who is less serious and who is more serious.So if you are guilty, you are guilty. In comparison, Jia Mu is more guilty, and Ai Ruo doesn't mind.

Seeing Jia Min like this now, with no one around to help, Huo Ha Erma also looked worried.She really can't comfort people, seeing Jia Min like that, Ai Ruo was speechless, and gave Jia Yuan a wink, 'Aren't you smart?let's go! '

Jia Yuan stared back at Ai Ruo, with a very clear meaning, 'Why?Am I like that cute kid? '

She directly kicked Xiaodai next to her.

Xiao Dai doesn't know Jia Min very well, but he is also a very kind child. He took out his handkerchief and stuffed it into Jia Min's hand. He hurried back and hid behind Ai Ruo, peeking at Jia Min like he was beaming. .

Jia Zhu wasn't familiar with Mother Lin, but she was familiar with Jia Min, so she took a heroic step forward and prepared to do it herself.However, he was caught by Ai Ruo and kicked Jia Yuan again.Jia Zhu was a little heartless, what to do if Jia Min said she was crying.

Jia Yuan was helpless, mainly because, looking at Jia Zhu like that, it was probably useless.Silently crawled to Jia Min's side, handed her a handkerchief, and then stopped talking.

Jia Min had a handkerchief in his hand, just now Xiaodai gave her another handkerchief, and now Jia Yuan came up and gave her another handkerchief, a three-way handkerchief, and Xiaodai's handkerchief had the word 'dai' on it, Jia Min stared at her. Looking at Ai Ruo, 'This, are you sure, you really think this is your own? 'Jia Yuan's is not bad, but there is nothing on it, but the edge is bound with emerald silk thread.

"Why didn't you embroider anything?" Jia Min was not happy, how can a girl's handkerchief be so plain?Like many of Jia's mothers, she felt that how could a girl's family be so plain, which was unacceptable.She stopped pointing at Ai Ruo and looked at Aunt Guan.She already knew with certainty that Ai Ruo couldn't control that child.Aunt Guan couldn't grasp it either, but Aunt Guan was more careful than Ai Ruo, so she knew a little bit.

"Girl said, I'm panicking." Aunt Guan expressed her depression. This one only allowed the hem to be rolled and not allowed to embroider, so it couldn't be used.The problem is, besides the practical value, the girl's handkerchief is more of a decorative value, but I can't tell Jia Yuan clearly, I can only hope that she grows up and is sensible, let's talk about it.

"It's not for washing your face, why?" Jia Min stared at Jia Yuan.

"A handkerchief should be like a handkerchief, embroidered in a fancy way, who will show it? If you lose it, you're afraid of getting caught. It's best if you don't have anything." Jia Yuan said slowly.

"Everyone has them, but you don't. If your veil falls off, you will be caught." Jia Min immediately caught the tell-tale.

Jia Yuan thought about it too, turned around, and said directly to Aunt Guan, "Do it like my aunt, if it falls off, say it belongs to my aunt."

Jia Min went crazy, what kind of child is this?I don't even ask Ai Ruo how to teach.Because no one can teach this girl, she directly pulled Jia Yuan and kissed her itchy flesh hard.The two quarreled.

Ai Ruo backed out slowly, and Jia Zhu kept looking back, obviously confused, and that was fine.Xiaodai thought about it, ran back again, and stretched out his hand to take back the veil with Xiaodai's name.

"What are you doing?" Jia Min hurriedly said, afraid that his nephew would feel hurt.

"Have a name, have a handle, no!" Xiao Dai shook his chubby face, and ran away again.

Jia Min and Jia Yuan were startled together, and then burst into laughter together.After the joke was over, Jia Min hugged Jia Yuan again and burst into tears.Jia Min really felt very lonely, and there were fewer and fewer people who loved her, and her loneliness, emptiness and coldness could not be told to others.

After Jia Yuan returned to Nanjing with Jia Zheng and the others, the Lin family fell into that kind of deathly silence.Lin Haizong always finds something for them to play with to make her and Mother Lin happy, but they all know that the three of them are not happy.Sometimes at night, hiding in Lin Hai's arms, she would keep telling Lin Hai that she was sorry, that she shouldn't have brought Jia Yuan back, maybe never, it was much better than losing it all at once.Lin Hai hugged her tightly without saying a word.

The imperial doctor came, and Lin Hai started to take medicine. Even if it was unpalatable, he still took it with a smile on his face. Jia Min cried bitterly, hugged his neck and said, "Forget it, don't suffer, the two of us are really serious." It's pretty good." Lin Hai still hugged her tightly and didn't speak.

Mother Lin's body was willing to see a doctor in Lin Hai, willing to take medicine, and quickly deteriorated. I don't know if she was relieved, or she was just like Jia Min. She really couldn't bear it.Sometimes, Jia Min wondered, if Jia Yuan was always by their side, would Mother Lin still be alive and they would still be a happy family?Maybe as long as their father survives, Jia Yuan will always be by their side, then they will still be happy; she doesn't want to hate her mother, but she finds helplessly that all the misfortunes in her life are actually caused by her mother.

If Ai Ruo heard this, he probably wouldn't agree.Who is to blame for Jia Min's tragedy?Mother Jia was wrong, but no one was right.The Lin family is right?Daishan right?All in all, in fact, as I said to the God of Ai Ruo, they are all sinners. Don’t blame others for your mistakes, try to repent, and try to correct yourself!

Just like this, Jia Yuan went with Jia Min wherever he could go home, and only the boring Ai Ruo and Xiao Dai were left at home.
