Lin's Aunt in the Red Chamber

The patriarch's wife, Lin Chang, was jealous of Lin Xiao. In the past, when Mrs. Jingyuanhou didn't come back, all the Manchu people flattered her. As a result, when she came back, even if she was a widow, what the clan said changed. It became her, and the husband had to curry favor with her, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

After drinking a cup of tea, Lin Chang directly stated his intention.

"My Jiang'er said that he bumped into another girl accidentally, and finally had a skin-to-skin relationship. How can people like us be irresponsible? Brother and sister, you just gave us that girl. How much, tell me!"

Since that day when the clan relatives were making trouble in the mansion, he neglected his daughter and was almost killed by someone, Lin Xiao had no good impression of these clan relatives at all, and also agreed with his son's estrangement, especially the patriarch's wife in front of him. , I just felt disgusted when I saw her. At that time, I realized that my daughter was missing, and she was pulling me to talk, and I didn't leave no matter how explicit or hinted.

"It's been less than a hundred days since my husband left, and my wife came to ask for a maid to be a little star for your son. Do you think it's appropriate? Even if my maid is killed, she can't tolerate being treated lightly like this. After a while, you have to be a concubine? What is the reason for this?"

Lin Xiao slept well today. After waking up, she knew about Qiushuang. She was originally very angry because she went to find her son. Jiang had no intention, so he spoke directly.

Lin Chang paused, thinking that what his son said was Lin Hai's trick, and Lin Hai's family was not very close to the clan, and only by pinching him, could he seek more benefits in the future.

So regardless of Xianggong's words to win over, he directly threatened: "Madam is not willing to give up? Could it be that you want to keep it for your son?"

"Bad people, don't bully my mother!" Lin Lan ran in from the outside, directly paste the mud in his hand on Lin Chang's face, even pushed her, and shouted in front of Lin Xiao .

"You you you you..." Lin Changshi screamed and pointed at Lin Lan and was about to scold, but was dragged out by Lin Xiaoshi's order.

"You are a daughter's family, how can you be so reckless? Where did the mud come from? What's wrong with the daughter's house, do you have to play with these?" As soon as Lin Chang was taken out, Lin Xiao couldn't help but feel a headache when he saw his daughter road.

Lin Lan lowered her head, and when she heard the report from the servants, after Lin Changshi had left the mansion, a smile appeared on the corner of her lips.

After Lin Xiaoshi taught her a lesson for a while, seeing her daughter standing there pitifully, her heart softened again, knowing that she was helping her, so she couldn't say anything more, hugged her and went to bathe her personally.

"Look at you, you're playing so dirty, like a mud monkey..." Lin Xiaoshi said, but his hands didn't stop. Together with Nanny Song, he helped his daughter wash her hair and take a bath.

Seeing that her daughter didn't have a trace of bruises on her body, Lin Xiao said to Nanny Song, "It's better that you take good care of her!"

Seeing that Lin Lan finally grew some flesh, Nanny Song said with a smile: "It's not that you gave birth well, old lady. I gave birth to two, but no matter whether it's a girl or a boy, none of them can compare to the young lady. of."

"Your girl is eight years old now, right? If I don't send her here to be your companion, she will have a good future in the future." Lin Xiaoshi heard the elegant meaning and said directly.

The smile on Nanny Song's face became even wider, and after she nodded, she said something: "My girl is a wild girl, she is more than three years older than Miss Chi, but she is a little ignorant, and she has to live it up. .”

"The number of girls around Lan'er is a little less now. I'll let Jin Ling go over to help, and I'll have to make up for it in the future." After Qiushuang left, Lan'er didn't have a safe girl by her side. Jin Ling looked okay, but If you don't like Qiushuang today, you will have to be punished. When Lan'er becomes a filial piety, you must give her at least eight maids of the first, second, and second ranks.

Lin Lan closed her eyes in enjoyment, took a bath and was served by her mother-in-law. She was not at all embarrassed, and there were three or four maids around to help pass things and change water. After washing, she was wiped clean with a cotton cloth , put on a kind of balm, the smell is very light, but it smells good.

After washing his hands, cutting his nails, picking out his ears and wiping his hair, Lin Lan couldn't help feeling that this corrupt life is really addictive.

"Old madam, it's not good!" After Lin Lan's hair was half-dried and Lin Xiaoshi thought about combing her daughter's hair herself, Jin Ling came in with a strange expression, and whispered in Lin Xiaoshi's ear : "...The patriarch's wife went back to hold her brother-in-law, and was discovered... It seems that she almost killed someone, and now the clan wants the master to go with you to help... preside over the affairs..."

Lin Lan felt a little unbelievable when she heard the words. She didn't want to control Lin Changshi, but just let her desire grow bigger within a period of time.

So Lin Chang's deepest thought is to pick up his uncle?So passionate?

Even though Lin Xiao asked people not to talk nonsense in front of her daughter, Lin Lan still knew the truth because of her young age.

Lin Chang was originally the successor of Lin Nuo, the head of the Lin family. The age difference between the two was quite large. is strong...

As the heirs of the fifth house, the patriarch and younger brother have not yet separated because of their old mother. The fifth house is the housekeeper of Lin Chang's family. Sometimes she will do some convenience, and Lin Yu's family will benefit a lot. In this matter, Lin Yu The language lady knows it all.

When and how long the two hooked up, there are different opinions. Lin Lan is not interested in who he is, but now Lin Nuo has seriously injured his younger brother Lin Yu, and because he was too emotional, he directly had a stroke.

Now the clan is discussing whether the Lin Chang family should sink into the pond, and the new patriarch.

Seeing that no matter whether it is the elder brother or the mother, they don't have much interest in the affairs of the patriarch, and they are not close to anyone in the clan, which makes Lin Lan very strange.

The influence of the ancient clan was very great. Lin Hai, as an official of the imperial court and the only son of one family, did not want to rely on the clan, which is not normal.And even if he is not close, he will be implicated if there is a big event in the clan in the future.

Lin Lan didn't know about the affairs of his ancestors, but the matter of one prosperity and one loss is still clear. If it is not clear, then the affairs of the clan have to be taken care of.

"Sister-in-law, what are clan relatives? Why are elder brothers and mothers going to help them with their affairs?" Lin Lan looked at Jia Min and asked curiously.

Looking at Lin Lan's innocent smiling face, Jia Min replied: "Han Bangu's "Baihu Tong. Religion" said that "the clansmen get together, get together, and love each other. Go up to the ancestors, go down." As far as great-great-grandson, a family is blessed, hundreds of families gather together, become relatives, love each other in life and mourn each other in death, there is a way to get together, so it is called the clan.'”

"I don't understand!" Lin Lan shook his head, it was so complicated that if he could understand it, he had to understand it.

Jia Min paused, and only then did he think of Lin Lan's age, so he explained: "Well... Simply put, those who are related to the father's family by blood are relatives."

Speaking of family relatives, Jia Min thought of the Jia family in Jinling. Some time ago, he heard from his elder brother that he was very arrogant.

"Since we are relatives, we must teach them well! Just like my brother, I am not allowed to eat more steamed cheese and sweet snacks. I am afraid that if I break my teeth, it will not look good. Shouldn't the bad guys in the clan be taught well? Tell them not to do bad things?" Lin Lan grabbed Jia Min's belt and looked up at her, as if to praise her.

Seeing this, Jia Min couldn't help bending down and hugging her in her arms, thinking that it would be great to have such a lovely daughter in the future.So he echoed again and again: "Sister Lan is so smart, my sister-in-law didn't even think of it!"

Hearing Jia Min's exaggerated praise, Lin Lan continued: "It's wrong to let the young ladies of the uncles of the five clans know that you can't take other people's things casually. What Daddy said before is not to do evil for small things, you can't Indulge in her bad habits."

"You can also tell the younger sisters of the uncles of the seventh clan to stop bullying the younger sisters of the uncles of the sixth clan. The younger sisters of the uncles of the sixth clan are nice people, but...just...easy to be bullied, and they don't resist. "

Listening to Lin Lan's childish words, Jia Min couldn't help but think deeply. Liufang is weak, and there are only orphans and widowed mothers in the family, so life is naturally difficult, but Qifang can't live in front of Sister Lan. Covering up the bullying of Liufang's children, and Wufang...

Jia Min sneered, the patriarch's family came from the fifth room, and the child who took things indiscriminately was Lin Yu's daughter. This time, Lin Yu was arrested for having an affair with his sister-in-law. In the future, this child's life may not be as good as that of the sixth room. If it's someone else's family, it's all right to help them more, but Wufang...

Jia Min shook her head, planning to have a good talk with her husband.They can't ignore things that a child of Sister Lan can see, otherwise, if the small evil becomes a big evil, it will be bad for them to implicate their family.

"I already told my mother in the clan today that our house will not participate in the competition for the patriarch, but we will increase investment in clan studies in the future. A husband also understands the truth that a single tree is difficult to grow into a forest."

After Lin Hai came back and heard what Jia Min said, he said softly.

Walking around in the family today, he let go of some prejudices, knowing that they can't be torn apart, so he has to find a way to support what can be supported.

Lin Yu had an affair with his sister-in-law, and she was expelled from the Lin family for treason. Lin Chang's family had already been divorced, but she was not sank into the pond because she gave birth to two children for the Lin family. It would be bad for the reputation if this matter got serious...

Because of the scruples in the clan, Lin Hai suddenly woke up. The Lin clan is his foundation, otherwise why would his great-grandfather, who had already left the clan, return to the clan after he became famous.There is a lot of money given to the clan for so many years, and it cannot be broken, so why not just clean it up?

Thinking about this time, Lin Hai and Lin Xiaoshi changed their minds.

Boys in the clan who have reached the age of six must go to the clan school. Lin Hai will help the clan buy [-] acres of land again, and all the proceeds will be used for the clan study. In addition, the girls have to learn the rules when they are seven or eight years old. Understand the principles and etiquette, the most important thing is to know the integrity.

Lin Hai intends to set up a girls' school in the clan, and the younger sister's intelligence is no less than that of the boys.But at present, the daughter's family can help the family with a lot of work at the age of seven or eight, so many people are not very willing, so they can only follow Lin Chang's business and conduct a short-term training every year.

Because they figured it out, Lin Xiaoshi and Lin Hai put aside their grievances for the time being, and didn't talk about anything else during the meal.

"Why don't you see Qiushuang?" During the meal, Lin Lan was served by Jin Ling, and Jia Min was a little curious.
