After the twelfth lunar month, the beginning of spring has begun, and it has been very cold for several days.

Suddenly, the day was covered with red clouds, and a heavy snow fell from noon to midnight, which was as deep as six or seven inches.Haruyuki had never been this big.The next day, Feng Ziying got an official business and bid farewell to everyone in the Lin family.

This day, Shu Yu was called for roll call, but Shen Qian sent a maid to call Shu Yu, saying that it was snowing yesterday, and the newly born little brother felt cold occasionally.Shen Qian was originally in charge of this care, but Lin Ruhai wanted to host a banquet for Feng Ziying, Shen Qian was busy preparing the banquet, and had to take care of Shuyu, Yanyu, and Daiyu.So he shirked the banquet for Shu Yu and let Shu Yu take care of his younger brother.

When Yinger came to deliver the message, Shen Qian had already removed Shu Yu's seat.Shu Yu didn't take it too seriously, and went to the third room the next day to take care of her newborn baby brother.The baby is still small, and the purple color brought from the mother's womb has not faded.The small mouth was pale, and the cheeks were plump.Shu Yu sang while teasing him.Hearing that Aunt Qiu was pregnant, Shen Qian sent someone to deliver the best life bird's nest every day.It's because of Aunt Qiu's body that they make up for it.But thank God that the child was able to be born safely, Shu Yu didn't think Shen Qian didn't hate this child.

After teasing for a while, Mammy came to nurse the child.Shu Yu turned to the backyard to watch the snow. Luo Lan was young, and he was frozen after walking for a while, begging for mercy: "Miss, let me go back and prepare a stove for you!"

"Okay, although these three rooms belong to our family, I haven't visited alone yet. Why don't you go back first and let me have a good time." Luo Lan and Ximei immediately left in surprise.

Tightening the cloak tightly, Shu Yu continued to play.Walking to the end of the garden, I saw a stream not far away cutting off the wall, and was about to walk back.The sound of snow sweeping came from the other side of the wall, and there was a faint sigh.Shu Yu was curious, so she moved outside the wall, thinking that some maid was hurting the spring and the autumn.But I saw a handsome woman standing in the snow with a pair of bare feet, holding a broom in her hand, sweeping the snow tremblingly.

A section of elegant plum blossoms blocked each other's sight.Shu Yu wondered about the origin of this girl, why has she never seen her before? !I thought again: This girl is beautiful, why is she suffering in my garden? !It does look pitiful.I don't know which room she is the maid of.And offended which nanny, who looks down on people with a dog's eyes, is punished here to suffer!Thinking of this, he kindly asked: "Girl, what's your name, and which master do you serve?"

When the woman heard this, she hurriedly turned her face around, looked towards Lin Shuyu, and saw that she was a well-dressed young lady.He froze for a while, but wanted to leave.Shu Yu immediately stopped her, looking at the girl's hands, her feet were cracked from the cold.Ask her again, the girl said pitifully: "I'm not a maid, I'm... Aunt Jing from the eldest room."

Shu Yu almost fell over.According to Aunt Jing, Lin Ruhai sent away all the concubines in order to marry Jia Min.Either betrothed to another family, or sent to a manor in the countryside.In short, in order to cater to Mother Jia's needs for son-in-law, Lin Ruhai chose to be cruel to the concubines.This Aunt Jing has no family background, and she didn't think of allocating wealthy households in the countryside as concubines, so she begged the old lady to be merciful and give her an errand. OK.Seeing that she did not want to be petty with others, the old lady agreed.

"I don't dare to go to the eldest room. I don't want people to recognize it and make the mistress unhappy. Miss, the last time I saw you, you were only six years old. I didn't expect you to be so old now." Said Then, Aunt Jing shed two lines of tears, but persuaded: "This garden is not the place for you, you should go!"

"He, Lin Ruhai... how many aunts does he have?!"

"Master has six aunts in total. Apart from the noble concubine Aunt Yue, I am the youngest. I was only 16 years old when I was raised as an aunt. I am not a concubine with family background like Aunt Yue, so the master wants to drive us away. "Aunt Jing wiped her tears with a handkerchief, which was embroidered with cursive patterns, but it was cut from clothes.

After hearing these words, Shu Yu left.This place is indeed not where a young lady of her status should come.But!Lin Ruhai has the right to abandon five beautiful women after they have been ruined? !After thinking about it, she understood why Daiyu said that scholars are not clean, they care about the world, but they don't care about the women around them!Thinking about it this way, she inadvertently reduced her favorability towards Shen Wei and Wei Ruolan, who are both scholars.By the way, when they met the next day, they didn't give Lin Ruhai a good look either.After a few sneering words, Lin Ruhai couldn't hold back anymore.

The cup slammed on the ground with a bang: "Shu'er, you're not too young anymore. How can you speak and act inappropriately?! You said you want to take care of your younger brother, but you ignored Mr. Feng's invitation?! You said it's cold today, and you deliberately made sarcastic remarks? What does it mean that uncle has no one around him, he is so lonely. Can you, a niece, take care of uncle's internal affairs?!"

Daiyu quickly comforted her: "Daddy, don't be angry. My sister may have something to say." Then she stepped forward to support Lin Ruhai, while persuading her, she gave Shu Yu a wink to let her back down.

Shu Yu ignored Lin Daiyu, just smiled and said: "Uncle, what you said is wrong: the family is weak, and Daiyu is the only daughter in Dafang's line, so it's strange to be lonely. According to what you scholars say, when the girl arrives At the age of 40, if a man commits three crimes, he can take concubines. With such a serious excuse, you can sell a lot of Aunt Jing to serve you!"

Lin Ruhai sneered and said: "What sarcastic words! I recruited people in the room not long after your aunt left. If it gets out, it will be good for the reputation of the Lin family?! Besides, your sister is weak, so I really want to hire someone to accompany her She, seeing how deeply you two sisters love each other, that's why you put an end to the idea of ​​taking a concubine. Could it be that you want to part with your sister!"

After finishing speaking, he asked Shu Yu to kneel down. Shu Yu was already full of anger, so he refused to kneel this time.Seeing that Lin Ruhai was about to take care of Shu Yu's family, Xueyan and Jin'er slipped out quietly.One went to call the old lady, and the other went to call Shen Qian.

"Uncle, I heard that there are three kinds of unfilial piety, one of which is "flattery and unrighteousness!" "Tell me, did you commit this violation, or did I commit it?!" Thinking of the sum owed by the Shen family, Shu Yu became upset: What is the concept of 300 million taels? !The annual tax revenue of Yingtianfu, the wealthiest area in the country, is only 900 million taels of silver.This is using [-]% of the national tax to pay off the debt!If she could choose again, she would never be in front of Miss Lin.I would rather be a Xue Baoqin, enjoy the supply of the imperial merchant at home, and have Mr. Ruyi by my side, how nice it is!Unfortunately, there is no if.

"You...you...my Lin family has never had such a thing, what are you talking about! I have been lazy in housework in recent years, and I entrusted the household chores to your aunt to take care of, which made you have such an idea! If outsiders know, what is the face of our ancestors!" Lin Ruhai was poked at the sore spot, and the more he cursed, he immediately called two mothers Wang to hold Shu Yu down.

Shu Yu really couldn't believe it, did Lin Ruhai have the face to hit her? !Unable to break free, Lin Ruhai really raised the commandment for beating people, and slammed it down.The palm of my hand suddenly felt hot and painful.Shu Yu gasped, Dai Yu was already petrified, she fell to the side, Jin Er and Xi Mei helped pinch him, Luo Lan rolled up his sleeves, and was about to rush up to protect his master.Suddenly there was a shout from Xueyan outside the door: "The old lady is here." Before he could finish a sentence, he heard a trembling voice outside the window saying:

"Ruhai! You actually used the family law on the orphaned daughter of your dead brother, it's against you!"

"Mother, this is a matter of the younger generation speaking rudely, and as an elder, I should be disciplined."

"Grandmother!" Shu Yu threw herself into the arms of the old lady, and the tears fell without brewing.

The old lady asked the idlers to wait out.Only my own family members were left in the room, and then sighed: "What kind of rude words?! Xueyan has already told me everything: Shu'er was not wrong in the first place, and you know it in your heart! At the beginning, I made a decision for you. I met the daughter of the Chen family in Huainan. She was born in a scholarly family and is a family friend with our family. You also saw the portrait of the girl's family. What are you talking about?! If you can get this girl as a wife, you will never take concubines for life !"

Daiyu looked at her father in surprise.

The old lady was heartbroken and said: "What happened later?! You forced yourself to stand out, but you didn't know that the 300 million taels of silver from the loyal prince were originally intended to be used by the victims of the disaster. They tricked you, and you just don't know." She jumped in recklessly and owed this huge sum of money. Her Jia family was not only stingy, but also played tricks on her relatives. When the old lady of the Jia family heard that the Lin family owed a huge sum of money, she even refused to send her daughter a serious illness. A relative came! It wasn’t until the daughter-in-law left that Jia Lian came! Originally, I wanted Daiyu to go to that Jia’s family and have nothing to do with our family. But judging from the Jia family’s intentions, Daiyu’s granddaughter is not as good as that Xue Baochai, who was born in a merchant family, is more expensive! What a bunch of bastards!"

Lin Ruhai dropped the commandment and knelt down in front of her mother.Shu Yu took Daiyu and walked out quietly. The swelling in the palms disappeared quickly, but the notion that scholars are all bastards has been lingering ever since.

At night, Shu Yu coaxed Daiyu to sleep first.Think about your future, what should you do?Open the sandalwood box, and there are a dozen title deeds at the bottom of the box.If he can escape from the Lin family, he can live in the manor by himself.However, is this realistic? !It's better to choose a reliable person, such as Feng Ziying.After consulting the system, the favorability has reached sixty.It's okay to make do with it.But not to mention love.This stuff is too far away from me.

The next day I went to visit my grandmother.The old lady greeted Shu Yu's injury, and gave her a high-quality plaster for external application.Ximei felt sorry for her master, and said aggrievedly: "Old lady, if it wasn't for you to make the decision this time, the master doesn't know how to punish the eldest lady! There is the second lady present, so the master will do it, and the daughter's family will be shocked... "

"Ximei, don't talk about it!" Shu Yukun glanced at Ximei: "The old ancestor knows it well!"
