Lin's Aunt in the Red Chamber

Jia Min felt a bit bitter in her heart. The past three years had been peaceful, but she got along with her eldest brother and sister-in-law a lot. Jia Min also found that they were not as unfilial as her mother complained before.

Seeing his sister-in-law leaving Rongguo Mansion and becoming healthy day by day, Jia Min felt more and more that her elder brother was not wrong in this matter.

In the past few years, my mother first named sister Yue of the big brother's family Yingchun, and later intervened in Brother Hu's affairs many times. Last year, she even wanted to ration the daughter of the Zhen family to Brother Hu... Hu'er was the grandson's companion. Concubine Zhen gave birth to two more princes, isn't this putting brother Hu on fire?

Now there is another Baoyu who was born in the title of jade in the family, Jia Min thought very miserable, what is this going to do?

Hearing her mother-in-law's beating, Jia Min felt uncomfortable, but she also understood that it was a blessing for many daughters to marry into a family like the Lin family these years. Delegating power, on the one hand is the mother's family who gave birth to her, raised her and loved her and doted on her, and on the other hand is the in-law's family who is tolerant to him. Jia Min shook hands, feeling extremely entangled in his heart.

"Don't meddle in family affairs, take good care of yourself, try to get pregnant as soon as possible, and live your life well. No matter what? I will always rely on you, even if it is not as good as your father. If the Lin family has done too much, just don't Face, I won't make it easy for them either!"

Before leaving, Jia Amnesty handed Jia Min aside and instructed him earnestly.

After thanking Jia Min in tears, she apologized again for what happened in the past.

"That's enough, that's enough!" Jia She shook his head, not used to others being so grateful to him, and continued: "Don't meddle in family affairs, you are a married girl now, you take care of too much, I can't help but my in-laws don't like it Even my natal family would not like it!"

Jia Min bit her lip and couldn't help asking: "Baoyu was born with a jade in his mouth, so should he be so flamboyant?"

"If you don't make it public, he will die! Father is getting older, and his thoughts are becoming more soft-hearted. Baoyu is his own child. No matter what the reason is, he can only survive if he grows up. Don't worry about it. If Baoyu doesn't make progress in the future, you can't do it. Don't meddle!" Jia Amnesty didn't understand this before, and he only understood after his son wrote a letter and broke it up and explained it to him.

Jia Min's eyes widened. She was only complaining about her family before, but she never thought that she had such intentions, so she immediately laughed!

Jia Amnesty waved his hand and pointed at Jia Lian. Although Jia Min said: "This child has been pampered by me, and he is a little out of tune. You bothered on the way back. You let your brother-in-law beat and scold casually. His skin is rough and his flesh is thick. Even if he still doesn't make progress, at least he can't." To hold Hu'er back!"

"Lian'er is just playful, brother, you worry too much!" Jia Min really has a good impression of Jia Lian, this nephew is sweet and lively, she has already liked it for the past three years, although he is a bit greedy, but children like beauty It's just nature, doesn't even my sister-in-law like good-looking people?Just grow up!

After being found out by his parents for bribing two masters, and being thrown back to Beijing because of his father's two concubines playing around, Jia Lian was not in a good mood, but thinking of his mother's tears, he was finally persuaded.After nearly three years in Gusu, he almost forgot about his time in the Duke's Mansion, only knowing that his mother had a bad life there and was forced to recuperate here.

"Lian'er, you live with your uncle in front. If you have something to do, ask your mother-in-law to come over. You can tell aunt what you want to eat and wear. Don't wrong yourself." Gusu went to the capital by boat, and Jia Min arranges Jia Lian to stay with Lin Hai on weekdays. After all, the two girls in the family are getting older, and it's time to avoid taboos.

Jia Lian nodded. He is ten years old this year. He wanted to play with the two aunts of the Lin family, Lin Ling and Lin Lan, but Lin Lan asked him, "Are you trying to kill me?"

It made him a little dizzy. He has no blood relationship with the two little aunts of the Lin family. If they got too close, it would be a bad reputation. Although Jia Lian likes beautiful women, he doesn't dare to harm others. It is the girl he likes more. Children, they can only curse inwardly that the world is troublesome, and then stay honestly in front, facing their uncle who spends all day taking school exams.

Lin Hailian asked more than a dozen questions, but all he faced were Jia Lian's innocent eyes...

"What do Brother Lian want to do in the future?" Lin Hai likes Jia Lian's vibrancy and liveliness. Although he also knows his faults, in his opinion, this is nothing serious, but thinking of his wife's entrustment, he still wants to guide him.

What are you going to do in the future?Jia Lian didn't like reading. In the past, he stared and forced him to read it. In the past two years, his elder brother was in Beijing. He found out the weakness of his master and kept fooling the family.

"Help your brother with housekeeping in the future!" Jia Lian replied.

"What if you are all grown up and separated? Your brother has a title and knowledge, what about you? You plan to rely on your brother for the rest of your life, and let them rely on their uncle when they have children?" Lin Hai asked with a frown.

Jia Lian lowered his head and thought for a while, and didn't think there was anything wrong with it, but seeing his uncle's dislike, he tentatively said: "When I was at home, the old lady told me that people like us don't have to talk to poor people. If students fight for it, they will always have a future."

Lin Hai paused while holding the teacup, looked at Jia Lian seriously and asked, "Where did you say that? It's just that you have a good background, and your family will find a future for you. Can you keep it?"

"Just hire a few more staff!" Jia Lian said indifferently.At the beginning of this year, because the second uncle was sick and couldn't have a spring, the grandfather asked him for a vacancy in the Ministry of Industry. Jia Lian had heard about this, and heard that his grandfather sent an old man who had been with him for decades to the second uncle. Come forward and teach him to be an official.

That day my father complained unhappily to my mother, but Jia Lian listened.Uncle Han Chuang studied hard for more than ten years before passing the Tanhualang exam, and got a position as a deputy sixth-rank editor. The second uncle was only managed by his grandfather, but he got the official position of a sixth-rank official, right?

Even the father, with just one word from the crown prince, he won the seventh rank official.So even if you don't work hard, it's nothing, right?

In two sentences, Lin Hai knew the problem of Jia Lian's not working hard, but at the same time, he also understood the disadvantages of the court's meritorious family, and hidden worries arose in his heart.

"Even if your family can find an official for you, but you don't know how to read and write, you can't do it well, so no matter what reasons you have, now that you are old, it is time to study and make progress. There are more than ten days of travel along the way. You And read this book in front of me every day!"

It cannot be said that what Jia Lian said was wrong, after all, it was taught by his mother-in-law, but when he was in front of him, Lin Hai did not allow him to relax, and asked him to read a law book in front of him every day. If you think about it, you can't memorize it, but you can still have some impressions.

Jia Lian looked at the books that were at least three or four inches behind her, and read them every day?He might not even be able to finish reading it even after more than ten days. Seeing that his uncle closed his eyes and asked someone to prepare pear water to moisten his throat, he couldn't resist, so he could only open the book bitterly and start to read.

Entering Beijing with Lin Hai, there are also a few children in the clan who are talented in reading. This is the agreement Lin Hai made with the current patriarch Lin Tao. He will try his best to help these children in the clan and find them a good academy so that they can read. Go farther on the Imperial Examination Road.

The youngest of these children is only two years older than Jia Lian. Looking at the uncle/brother of the third room, even the young master of the Duke's Mansion, they let go of their reluctance after leaving home, as long as they don't get seasick , They all picked up the book and started to read.

Amidst the sound of reading aloud, Linhai closed his eyes, and only opened his eyes to point to the reading or explain when Jia Lian made a mistake and the clansmen had doubts, proving his true talent and learning as a Tanhualang.

Looking at the scene ahead through the window, Jia Min calmed down and sat down to talk to Lin Ling and Lin Lan about the situation in Beijing.

Lin Ling is ten years old, Lin Lan is seven years old, and the false age is eight years old. Human relations are always necessary. In recent years, Lin Lan, Jia Min and Master Hu have learned well. Ling, in Jia Min's view, lack of aura is better than hard work, and she is very capable.

"Is the Jia family's niece Yuanchun more than three months older than sister Ling?" Lin Lan was not very interested in other human relations, and when Jia Min talked about Rongguo Mansion, he suddenly asked.

Jia Min nodded, thinking of the beautiful font of Yuan Chun, who wrote a letter to say hello to herself, and thinking of what she had said before, so she said with a smile: "No, Yuan Chun is the first day of the first lunar month. Sister Ling's birthday is March 21. It's not more than three months old, Lan'er's memory is really good."

"Sister-in-law, I was born with a jade pendant. I tried it, but all my jade pendants couldn't fit into my mouth? Does the little nephew of the Jia family have a particularly big mouth?" Lin Lan asked again.

Jia Min paused, and didn't want to bring up this topic, so she just said: "This sister-in-law doesn't know, Lan'er, you won't be able to live with your mother when you go back this time, have you decided where to live?"

"It's enough to get closer to mother, sister-in-law, take a rest! You are not tired, my little niece is tired!" Lin Lan counted the time, estimated that the fairy grass might already be in sister-in-law's stomach, and said directly.

Lin Xiaoshi opened his eyes wide, looked at his daughter, and scolded with a smile: "What are you talking about?"

"I didn't talk about it?" Lin Lan said innocently: "Dad told me in a dream. Dad said that when I grow up, my mother will be lonely, so I sent a little niece to play with me, so I can accompany her. you!"

During this period, Jia Min was very busy. Even if Lin Lan had never given birth, she knew that the first three months were very important, but she also knew that this sister-in-law was uneasy now, and wanted to do everything safely so that her mother would not want her. Because things about her natal family were too disappointing, she spoke out directly.
