Eldest sister is not easy to do

Daiyu waited for her father to sleep.After tidying up a few times lazily, I asked the girl to bring tea soup and took a few sips.Then she said to Xueyan: "Go and invite sister Shuyu. I have something to say to her." Xueyan then swung the golden lotus and went to the side room.A moment later, the two sisters met in the back room.This room was originally arranged by Jia Min to entertain noble ladies on weekdays.Among them, a rosewood couch is installed on each of the side chairs.The furniture in the room is all imported from the West.On one side is a small emerald jade chime, and on the other side is a chime bell.There are long windows on three sides, and the front is inlaid with glass.

Snow geese raised the curtains made of sky-blue organdy.The bright sun at noon made people warm, and Shu Yu's rosy white skin reflected a faint golden glow.Daiyu got closer, lowered her body, and softly repeated what Shen Qian and Lin Ruhai said.For other things, such as the fact that the third aunt and Matchmaker Su conspired to fabricate the story of Mr. Chen, Shu Yu had already known through the system: this was also thanks to Daiyu's tip-off in advance, telling her about Shen Qian's meeting with Matchmaker Su.That's what made her preemptive.Otherwise, I am afraid that God does not know today, so she will be sold out by Shen Qian.

Daiyu said: "Sister, this hard time should come to an end. Father has already said that the third room should move out immediately. Now it's all right, our family is finally quiet. I'm just afraid of brother Shuyu..." Shu Yu closed her eyes and said, "I'm afraid it's not that simple." Then she laughed and said, "Would you like to hear how the young couple from the Shen family are doing now?"

Daiyu immediately became interested and urged Shuyu to tell a story.Shu Yu is funny: In fact, it is not difficult to inquire about this matter: just ask Uncle Qiu, the gatekeeper of the Shen family, and you will know: Shen Wei married Liu Pingting, and only three nights later, the husband and wife Just sleep in separate beds: one sleeps in the study and the other sleeps in the new house.

Reason: so as not to quarrel.

Before getting married, Shen Wei only said that Liu Pingting was born as a fourth-rank master, and her usual etiquette is not bad, presumably it is the same in private.Who would have thought that this girl has a different look in private: arrogant and domineering, saying what she says.

Take the wedding night as an example, when Shen Wei's maid, Ming'er, came to clean up the house and accidentally touched Liu Pingting's phoenix crown, she was beaten severely by the bride and kicked out of the house.

The next day, Liu Pingting drove away three more attractive maids.Shen Wei was very angry, saying that there were no people around him, and his life was lost.A scholar like him has always been inattentive and indifferent to grain and grain.Even the clothes are not put on by themselves.Liu Pingting thought so, so she recruited two extremely ugly maids to come in.

Shen Wei was annoyed now.But because of Liu Pingting's father, he could only bear with himself.Unexpectedly, at this time, "New Magnolia Spring Dream" became popular, and rumors and rumors from outside continued to spread, making scholars who pay attention to famous festivals like him feel like sitting on pins and needles.Think to yourself who is playing tricks? !But can't figure out what happened.Just at this time, he heard his wife talking about "A Dream of Magnolia" with the old mother at home, in order to make fun of Lin Shuyu and Wei Ruolan for being dirty.Shen Wei was so angry that he didn't think much about it, and immediately decided: I'm afraid this matter has something to do with Liu Pingting.In addition, she was a jealous person, so Shen Wei alienated his bride that night.Stay in the study.But the long night was long, and Shen Wei couldn't survive it.The next day, someone was sent to find Ming'er.

In the next few days, Shen Wei kept Ming'er by his side.Day and night she had to wait on her before she could fall asleep.There is a sign that this maid will be accepted as a concubine.

Liu Pingting was also very angry. As the governor's daughter, marrying a Qingliu family is considered low.Now the husband spoils a maid within a few days of his wedding and opposes her.This is not bad!

On the night of the third day, Liu Pingting was short of two nuns and poured several bowls of safflower soup for Ming'er.Means to put an end to the possibility of her fertility.Unexpectedly, Ming'er happened to come to the sunflower water that night, and safflower is a woman's taboo. After drinking the decoction, Ming'er became more and more popular.Before Yinshi, he died of exhaustion.A good and beautiful girl, if she says it's gone, it's gone.

Shen Wei finally couldn't stand his wife anymore.Moved to the study.

A few days after Liu Pingting entered the house, a person was killed.This matter spread up and down for a while, and "New Magnolia Spring Dream" is getting popular all over the country.This script just confirms Liu Pingting's character, so no matter whether it is in the capital or the circle of noble ladies in the old capital, they all talk about Liu's fierceness and viciousness.He also expressed deep sympathy for Lin Shuyu.And Liu Pingting is a person with a good face, after such a terrible incident, she was too ashamed to go out to socialize.In addition, the husband became estranged from himself because of the homicide case, making him a newlywed, guarding the vacant room alone every night, and scolding endlessly.

After finishing speaking, the two sisters looked at each other and laughed.

"Sister, it's fortunate that you didn't marry into the Shen family." Recalling the past, Daiyu sighed inaudibly.Back then Wei Ruolan, Shen Wei, Jia Lian, and Feng Ziying had a gathering at home, and in the blink of an eye the two had married.Apart from Jia Lian, none of the three sons had a relationship with his own sister.Look at my sister's beautiful appearance, she is really old.Can't help feeling a little worried: "Sister, have you made up your mind? How about Mr. Feng?"

"It's not that if I want to marry someone, they will marry me." Shu Yu smiled and stopped Daiyu from talking.There are some things on her mind, some unfavorable marriages, which she really doesn't want to say.So as not to add trouble to my sister.The two chatted for a while, and heard that Sanfang started to tidy up.They looked at each other and smiled again.Daiyu suddenly thought of something and said, "The sixth day of the next month will be my sister's birthday, so we should cancel this banquet!"

Shu Yu understood Dai Yu's meaning: lest Shen Qian play tricks at the banquet again.But she is not afraid: it's a big deal, let the third uncle continue.Anyway, what Shen Qian committed was enough for her to drink a pot.But I also paid attention to this matter, birthday or something, it doesn't matter if I can't pass it.I'm afraid that on the occasion of this birthday, many noble ladies will come to Lin's house to rush out the door, and then some young man will appear to ask for a beautiful woman, what should we do?I thought about it until night.Just now I made up my mind: love, it's better to take the initiative!Just ask the maids to pick the silver 釭 with their hands, and the furnace will add speed.She took a brush and inkstone from the mirror table, and spread out the golden raft.Wrote: "Advise you not to cherish the golden thread clothes, and advise you to cherish the youth. The flowers can be broken and the branches will be broken. Don't wait for no flowers to break the branches."

After finishing writing, he leaned on the mirror and fell asleep quietly.

On the second day, Shu Yu sealed the envelope and handed it to Mrs. Qin, asking her to deliver the letter to Feng Ziying.After that, nothing will be mentioned.Besides, when Shu Yu was worrying: how should I refuse this birthday party.Unexpectedly, an imperial decree came down suddenly, it's all right now, it's not just that she can't hold a birthday party.People all over the world can no longer hold banquets: the old concubine of the late emperor passed away suddenly.His Majesty issued an imperial decree: all imperial orders, etc., will enter the royal class and be guarded according to the noble system.He also decreed to the world: all families with nobles are not allowed to have banquets and music for one year, and common people are not allowed to marry in three months.Those who are near Jinling, such as many daughter-in-laws in the Ningrong Second Mansion, have to go to the court every day to accompany the sacrifices.Although the sky is high in Yangzhou and the emperor is far away, before the old concubine invited the spirit to enter the Xianling, vegetarian food was opened.

The Lin family is also a hereditary title.Lin Ruhai is not in good health yet, but thinking that Lin Ruhan is going to move, Lin Ruhai asks Shu Yu to help with the cooking.Shu Yu was happy to agree: once the old concubine passed away, the matchmaker in the neighborhood would not be able to start a business for at least three months, which happened to allow her to spend the period when the third room moved.Shen Qian and her are still polite on the surface, but they are not competing with each other in private.For example, how much land was taken away by the third uncle, Shen Qian had a stalemate with her endlessly.Fortunately, the old lady is still devoted to her at this time.She was worried that her eldest granddaughter was going to find someone else, and Yanyu was also raised under her knees.Three farms that were originally reserved for Lin Ruhan were taken back.It is estimated that there are as many as [-] mu.

But Shu Yu was still not happy: the property left to her by her own father has not been taken back yet!

In a flash, half a month has passed.

When she was thinking about how to take back the property, an unexpected thing happened.

On this day, all the lotuses in the pond are in full bloom.Lin Ruhai's health was already well, and according to the imperial doctor's order, he sat in the waterside pavilion by the pond to bask in the sun and exercise his body.

After all, he is a sixty-year-old man, after this serious illness.The former Tanhualang has become an old man who has just recovered from a long illness.However, after this illness, he also took some things away: Half his life was ups and downs in the officialdom, but in the end he almost lost his life.However, promotion is still elusive.No, let alone the promotion, the large sum of money owed by the Lin family to Prince Zhongshun has not yet been settled.Even if he lost his life, how could a mere fifth-rank local official get half a year's tax in Yingtianfu area in more than ten years?With a sigh, I can quite understand the emotion of Lian Po's old age.Lin Ruhai narrowed her eyes slightly:

He thought of his dead wife Jia Min again: I am afraid that he did not cherish the relationship between husband and wife very much in the past.

Thinking of this sum of money, Lin Ruhai's heart was overwhelmed: It's not impossible to let it go.I'm afraid there will be a catastrophe for the Yu Lin family.If it's not bad, you have to use public funds privately.If one is not careful, one's reputation will be ruined for the rest of one's life, and one's reputation will be left to future generations.Besides his branch, the Lin family also has descendants in places as far away as Gusu and Ruli.And there is no shortage of fame and fame.If he committed the crime of corruption, he might implicate these innocent children.So I have to hesitate: choose the former or the latter? !However, this is just the difference between cutting off the right hand and the left hand.

Suddenly someone ran over quickly.Lin Ruhai opened his eyes and saw the housekeeper kneeling in a hurry.A dozen or so young servants all had expressions of fear on their faces.Then he asked in a deep voice: "What are you doing in such a panic? How decent it is to come in without reporting first! Cough cough." Thinking that this is not what a master should say, Lin Ruhai stopped talking.

The butler stammered: "Master, Master is not good! Someone is coming from the palace!"
