The Peace of the Red Chamber

"Ruhai." Li Xi called Lin Ruhai after sitting down, and poured two cups of tea.

When Lin Ruhai heard his old friend call him that, he couldn't help but sit upright, and only thought that Li Xi had something important to say.For half a lifetime of friendship, the two of them called each other casually in private on weekdays. What kind of fake face Li is confused, it has been a long time since they have called each other so politely.

Li Xi turned her head and cleared her throat twice, "You also met Wen'er today, what do you think?"

"Wen'er's child is very handsome. I just hope that one day Anle will be lucky to occupy five or six out of ten of Wen'er's." Lin Ruhai said what he really said from the heart, and he really meant it.Lin Anle listened to the drunken curls of her lips outside, envious of what, how nice the young master is, humming.

Lin Anle didn't see his father's expression, otherwise he would have to rush in to explain.

"My family's evil son, it took three years to go out, and he hasn't got married until now, and he's already eighteen..." Li Xi said, bowing his head and gulping down his tea. "A few days ago. Speaking of this matter, my wife only thought of your Daiyu..."

Lin Ruhai thought it was some important matter, but after hearing this, she sat upright and collapsed again, she just picked up the cup and drank tea without speaking.

"I know Daiyu is still young, so we're not in a hurry. We're engaged now, and it's okay to wait until Daiyu gets married." Li Xi hurriedly added another sentence, seeming quite guilty, and indeed It is indeed a guilty conscience to secretly plan a flower-like daughter of a good friend for her son.

After hearing this, Lin Ruhai still didn't speak, and continued to drink tea, only raising his eyelids to look at Li Xi.I was still anxious about Li Wen's age just now, but now I'm not in a hurry anymore. It's really rare to see such a thoughtful old fox who doesn't match the preamble.

"Okay, tell me something! It's just drinking, drinking, drinking is not enough!" Seeing that Lin Ruhai was about to drink up a cup of tea and didn't respond, Li Xi was annoyed at first, and how many years of dealing with him My old buddy hates this fake look the most.

Lin Anle outside was also tired of waiting, his feet were still numb, if he hadn't been thinking about listening to the following, he would have gone back.

Only then did Lin Ruhai put down the teacup slowly, "My daughter will be fourteen this year."

"Her mother left early, you know. She lived in Rongguo Mansion for seven years, and I have no right to pursue how many grievances and tears she suffered. Of course, the Jia family is hateful, and I will make it clear in the future, but there is also mine. responsibility.

The child was born weak, and it was better when I watched it by my side every day for the past two years, but I still felt that the days were short.

The daughter who has been held in my mouth and held in my hand since childhood, has thought more than once about how cruel I will be when I get married in the future. Send her out of the house, from a pearl in my hand to a fish eye in someone else's house, to host the wedding ceremony for someone else. Small and small, to bear children for another man, from a girl to a wife, a lady.

However, it is still too early.To be honest, there is no need for a girl from my Lin family to agree to leave so early, regardless of her appearance or character.They have only stayed by my side for seven years now, so I can't bear it. "

Lin and Li have known each other for many years, so there is no need to talk about false tricks. Lin Ruhai also understands what she means very well. Her daughter is too young, so she actually refused.

Li Xi didn't complain after hearing this, "I know what you're worried about, but I'm also telling the truth.

There are two sons in my family, the young one is too small, and the big one is decent.Before you came to Beijing, I intended to accept Daiyu as a righteous daughter, not to mention anything else, just to protect her.But the madam refused after hearing this. She liked Daiyu's child so deeply that she wanted to ask for Daiyu for Wen'er.

I also said that it is too early to think about these things, Daiyu is still very young, but the madam only said that the decision was made earlier, even if there is no way to get married for the time being, she can feel at ease.Besides, it also allows the two children to get to know each other well, so as not to make any mistakes in the future.

When I thought about it, it made sense, so even if someone came to kiss me before Wen'er came back, I still refused all of them.

Ruhai, even if you reject me today, what about in the future?

Can you still keep that child by your side forever? It's me today, but who will it be in the future?

You and I have been friends for so many years, we have said together what we can and cannot say, and we have done everything we can do and what we shouldn’t do, it’s because you still don’t believe me.

I'm here to give you a guarantee today, with my Li Xi's head guarantee! "

Lin Ruhai was silent again for a while, didn't even drink a sip of tea, and sighed for a long time, "Not to mention, the two children have to meet first, so I can ask Daiyu what she means."

Lin Anle finally heard what he wanted to hear, and ran away.

Both people in the room looked outside at the same time and shook their heads.

Daiyu saw that Lin Anle's face was still flushed and smelled of alcohol, and when she came in, she grabbed herself and said something, and she was taken aback.

"What are you talking about? Why did you come in so suddenly? Don't drink too much nonsense. I'm your sister. Those words are not easy to say." Lin Daiyu sat at the table and poured tea for Lin Anle, and ordered Xueyan went to get the hangover soup, feeling a little annoyed, how could the girl's boudoir reputation be just talking nonsense, even the closest brother can't.

Lin Anle was lying on the table, with her chin resting on her hands, she was full of innocence and cuteness, she pursed her lips a little aggrieved, "Why do you just say I'm talking nonsense, I don't know how much you say to women now, you are my sister, how can you I'll give you everything I pick up."

Lin Daiyu had spilled half of the tea in her hand when she heard this, her eyes were so wide that there was a glint of water, and she couldn't close her mouth.Hastily put down the cup and grabbed Lin Anle's sleeve, "You...what you said is true...why did Li Wen suddenly mention it...I don't know that Who is it...how can I talk about these things at such a young age..." Lin Daiyu shook her hands, her face was flushed, she didn't dare to look at Lin Anle, Shame can't say clearly.

"Hey, my sister just said that I'm a nonsense person, and she still said that about me after a very tired day. Forget it, go back and rest, anyway, no one will believe anything you say." Lin Anle snickered seeing Daiyu like this , made a gesture to leave.

When Daiyu saw him, she hurriedly dragged him back, but still turned her head away from him, and lightly beat him twice, her face blushing.

Seeing that Lin Anle couldn't stop being so amused, she sat down again, picked up the hangover soup brought by Xueyan next to her, and poked a couple of mouthfuls.

"I drank this hangover soup too, don't say I'm talking about drunkenness." At the end, I'll tease you a few more, you bastard.

"I eavesdropped on what my father and teacher were talking about in the study, you don't know how brave and mighty I was at that time, it was Pan An... Yue Fei reborn!

cough.

Don't pinch me Don't pinch me!Let's get to the point. Let's get to the point.

Li Wen is already old now, and should have reached the age to start a family long ago, but because he was wandering outside a few years ago and couldn't find anyone, it was delayed.When the teacher mentioned this matter, Dad still had some excuses, and then he said a lot, and then he agreed to let you take a look first. "

Lin Daiyu was so ashamed that she wanted to ask about Li Wen's situation, but she couldn't open her mouth. Lin Anle still had a wink and said, "Don't worry, although I don't want to admit it, Li Wen is still very good." Yes. She is a little uglier than me, a little shorter, a little thinner, a little less knowledgeable, and she got the top spot in this exam. In my opinion, she is barely worthy of my sister is you."

Lin Daiyu knew that Lin Anle was talking nonsense, and it would be ridiculous if he followed what he said.

Dangye's heart is only restless, full of fantasy, feeling flustered and looking forward to, flustered about the life that is about to change, and looking forward to the life that is about to change.

Sure enough, the next day, Lin Ruhai asked Lin Daiyu what she meant, and Lin Daiyu replied shyly and timidly that she could only rely on her father's arrangement, and she seemed to agree.

When the two met in the Lin Mansion, Li Wen brought many presents, this one was good for the girl, that one was made by hand, and the ones were picked up casually, all of which were prepared with care, big bags and small boxes, also by looking at hands and feet I don't even know where to put it.Lin Anle was very talkative, making fun of Li Wen sentence after sentence, but Li Wen's clever mouth seemed to be fed to a dog, and he couldn't say anything.

Seeing such a man behind the screen, Lin Daiyu suddenly calmed down. She asked and answered questions gently. Throughout the ages, there is nothing that two people can't talk about.Lin Anle was watching Li Wen's stupid look, and she gritted her teeth, thinking that her sister might not belong to her anymore, so she was silently sad.

When he left, Li Wen was still dumbfounded, his handsome face was flushed, and he bowed deeply, "I won't marry a girl hastily, with a big sedan chair and red makeup, as long as it's the best girl in this world when she gets married. , I will definitely bring every bit of it and put it in front of you."

Lin Daiyu was stunned, and smiled as she watched the hasty figure walking away vaguely through the screen.
