[Red Chamber] Madam's wishes come true

As usual, there is really no way to ask about this kind of thing.

But isn't that, isn't there a spy living in Rongguo Mansion?

When Zhen Fu came to pay homage to the Lin family's early years, Lin Ruhai seized the opportunity to ask this question.

Don't tell me, Zhen Fu really knows.

It can even be said that he contributed to this matter.

But facing Lin Ruhai, he shook his head: "This matter is very important, and I can't tell anyone for the time being. I can only say that there is a relationship between the concubine of the eldest daughter of the Rongguo Mansion and the granddaughter-in-law Qin's renunciation of the Ningguo Mansion. , there is indeed a connection."

Lin Ruhai understood it and stopped asking.

As for Lin Kou's life experience, Zhen Fu also gave Lin Kou a thorough understanding for the first time.

He first reminded Lin Kou: "You don't want to investigate your background in private any more. Your background has something to do with Qin Ye's adopted daughter, and you have a relationship with the royal family. The emperor has sent all the blood drops in the capital to investigate. In this matter, sooner or later the truth will be found out, and if you intervene in it, it may attract the emperor's attention."

Lin Kou hesitated, never expecting that his life experience would be related to Qin Keqing.

Red scholars of later generations have long speculated that Qin Keqing was either the daughter of Prince Yizhong, or the substitute of Prince Yizhong's daughter, and no matter which one she was, she was indeed involved with the royal family.

If Lin Kou's life experience is really related to Qin Keqing, it is true that Lin Kou has something to do with the royal family.

She considers herself an ordinary person, and she just wants to live her own life comfortably, and doesn't want to attract the attention of the royal family.

Lin Kou nodded decisively.

Zhen Fu breathed a sigh of relief, and explained to Lin Kou: "You should not be the daughter of Lin Wen, the younger brother of Lin Wu, the general of Zhen Guo, but we have guessed who your parents are, but we can't be sure. Don't worry, the last thing is There will be results next year."

Lin Kou had expected this for a long time, so she didn't find it strange.

She even had guesses about the identity of her parents.Just thinking of his previous failed wish, Lin Kou couldn't confirm his guess for a while.

Because it's so easy.

But with Zhen Fu's permission, Lin Kou had the answer in his heart.

She thought about the previous wish carefully, and soon knew what the problem was——

What she made a wish before was to know the truth of her life experience, not to find the original owner's parents.If it was just to find the original owner's parents, it might not be too difficult. What was difficult was to find out why she was wandering outside and was taken away by the Qian family from the Zhenguo General's Mansion as Lin Wen's daughter.

Yes, Lin Kou guessed that the original owner's biological parents should be Lin Wu, General of the Zhen Kingdom, and Lan Yun, Mrs. Lin.

Because apart from the possibility that Lan Yun and Qian Shi are sisters, it is absolutely impossible for Lin Kou, the niece, to be so similar in appearance to Lan Yun, the aunt.

There is no blood relationship between them.

But it's not certain, what if... Lin Kou is the child of a relative of Lan Yun?

Lin Kou thought about it, and decided to start with finding the original owner's biological parents, and use them as a breakthrough point to find the truth about her life experience.

It happened that during this period of time, she had a lot of fish and meat, and gained a lot of weight.

So Lin Kou finished washing at night, lying on the bed, and quietly made a wish in his heart.

When I woke up the next day, I hardly lost weight.

Just like the last time she found the account book, the person she wants to find this time should be someone she can meet often.

The most qualified one is Lan Yun.

At the palace banquet on New Year's Eve, Lin Kou met Lin Wu, the general of the town who was only known by name.

It was a man with sword eyebrows and star eyes, with an astonishing imposing manner, and one could tell at a glance that he was a man of military commander background.

As if sensing that someone was looking at him, Lin Wu turned his head and met Lin Kou's eyes.Seeing that it was just a little girl, he paused, nodded and smiled at Lin Kou.

It's just that his smile looks a bit fierce. If it wasn't for Lin Kou not being an ordinary boudoir girl, he might be frightened.

He himself seemed to know that he was scary, so he quickly restrained the expression on his face, quickly averted his gaze, and turned to talk to his colleagues around him.

Whether it is modern or the end of the world, Chinese New Year is not much different from ordinary festivals or even daily life. In the words of modern netizens, there is no New Year flavor.

But in the ancient Chinese New Year, the most indispensable thing is the taste of the New Year.

Moreover, Chinese New Year is not just one day every year. It starts on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month last year, and it will not end until the Lantern Festival of the next year. For more than a month, there will be new tricks every few days. They all jumped up.

The Lin Mansion has long been hung with red lanterns, and Spring Festival couplets are pasted everywhere.

In the middle of the night last night, firecrackers and fireworks sounded one after another in this square city, with an inexplicable solemnity and festiveness, as if it really dispelled something.

The firecrackers and fireworks kept ringing until the stars disappeared, and then gradually stopped, and the excited people seized the opportunity to lie down and sleep peacefully.

But there was obviously no way to get enough sleep in that short period of time.

So Lin Kou got up in the morning and had breakfast with Daiyu and the others, then took Bai Shuang back to her yard to sleep in the cage, and she didn't get up from the bed until the sun was in the middle of the day.

After tidying up, Lin Kou went to Daiyu's yard.

Even if it was such a good day for national celebrations, Daiyu was not interested in it, and still lay on a chair in the yard with a book in her arms to read.

The snow hasn't stopped in the past few days. Although the snow on the ground has been swept away, the roofs and vegetation are covered with piles of snow. From a distance, it looks like snow-white flowers swaying on the branches, which has a special taste.

Hearing footsteps, Daiyu looked up.

Seeing that it was Lin Kou, she immediately got up and greeted her: "Sister, you are awake. I have visited your yard several times, but you have been sleeping."

Lin Kou rubbed the tip of her nose embarrassingly: "It was too noisy last night, I didn't sleep until dawn, I can't help it."

She didn't expect the Chinese New Year to be so noisy in ancient times.

She was too vigilant, and even if she fell asleep in bed, she would be awakened. In the end, she simply got up to watch the New Year with Bai Shuang and others, basically waiting for the sound to disappear before going back to her room to sleep.

Daiyu covered her lips and laughed, "Then you're done, I'm afraid you'll have to sleep every night before Lantern Festival."

Although the firecrackers and fireworks will not be set off all night like New Year’s Eve, there will always be people setting off fireworks and firecrackers in the middle of the night, and because there are not many people who set off fireworks and firecrackers, it is very likely to cause a situation where it will sound for a while, rest for a while, and then for a while. Firecrackers have been ringing more affect sleep.

Lin Kou suddenly showed bitterness.

Daiyu was stunned: "You really can't hear anything?"

Lin Kou thought for a while, then shook his head: "It's not likely, but it definitely won't work if it's too loud."

After all, this is an age of peace, and her vigilance is much better than in the last days, so she won't be awakened by the slightest noise.

Daiyu frowned, looking thoughtful.

Lin Kou didn't take it to heart.

She couldn't sleep well for half a month, but she could bear it, not to mention that she couldn't catch up on sleep during the day.

But she didn't know that Daiyu kept this matter in her heart.

During lunch, Daiyu suddenly said: "The sound of firecrackers and fireworks is too noisy at night, my sister almost didn't sleep all night last night. If it continues like this for the next half month, I'm afraid my sister will have to make up for it during the day. asleep."

But the problem is, except for the Spring Festival day, half of the rest of the time they have to visit relatives.

It is inevitable that there will be one or two of them, and they have to go.

Jia Min's expression became serious.

She asked Lin Kou carefully, and after confirming the situation, she said, "Don't worry, I will solve this problem."

Lin Kou didn't quite understand, but seeing Jia Min's firm attitude, he didn't speak.

That night, the noise in the first half of the night was not much different from last night, and the fireworks that went up one after another made the sky look like daylight, but after a while, the area around the Lin Mansion was completely quiet.

Lin Kou was originally prepared to not be able to sleep tonight, but unexpectedly for a long time, he could only hear the sound of firecrackers and fireworks blooming in the distance.

Full of suspicion, Lin Kou had a good night's sleep.

It was during breakfast the next day that Lin Kou found the answer from Jia Min.

"It's not a big deal. Yesterday, I asked the people around me to set off the fireworks in the first half of the night, so that everyone can sleep well in the second half of the night."

Jia Min said it easily, but Lin Kou knew it was difficult.

She paused and thanked earnestly.

Jia Min smiled and waved her hands: "What's the matter? Since you are my daughter, I should always protect you."

Lin Kou lowered his head and whispered yes.

The family had just finished their breakfast, and Jia Min was about to talk about his plans for the day, but suddenly saw the butler come in: "Master and wife, the carriage of Rongguo Mansion is parked outside the house, and they say they are here to pick up the master, wife and the three young masters."

Jia Min paused: "Who is here in Rongguo Mansion?"

The housekeeper whispered: "Er Ye Lian from the first room and Second Ye Bao from the second room are here."

Jia Min frowned, feeling rather bad.

The housekeeper said again: "Second Master Lian asked the servant to spread the word that Miss Kou is the granddaughter of the old lady since she has been recorded in the wife's name, so it's time for the old lady to meet her."

Jia Min turned to look at Lin Ruhai, both of them were full of worry.

Obviously, the Jia family came here for Lin Kou.

But they also knew about Lin Kou before, and they didn't seem to take Lin Kou seriously, and they never even mentioned her, so why did Chi Chi deliberately ask Jia Min to marry Lin Kou to the Rongguo Mansion?

Lin Kou thought for a while and said, "Maybe it's because of the pills?"

Lin Ruhai looked over.

Lin Kou explained: "Didn't I give the Qian family a pill before? It is said that after going through the hands of many people, it fell into the hands of Xue Wang's family, and then entered the palace. I thought, Xue Wang's family should be It was handed over to Mrs. Wang, and Mrs. Wang thought of a way to give it to Concubine Xiande."

But the pill itself was useless, it had always been her powers that made people pregnant.

The current situation should be...

"Concubine Xiande may have taken the medicine, but she has not conceived." Lin Kou guessed, "But it is also possible that Concubine Xiande gave the pill to someone, but the other party has used up the medicine and is still not pregnant?"

The Lin family has no contacts in the palace, so it is impossible to determine what is going on.

But Lin Kou has been keeping a low profile since arriving in the capital, and this should be the only thing that made the Rongguo Mansion notice her.

Lin Ruhai frowned: "If it's really because of this, Jia Lian won't leave if the young girl doesn't show up today."

Jia Min suggested: "Otherwise, let the little girl pretend to be sick?"

Lin Ruhai shook his head: "No, what if Jia Lian says he wants to visit?"

"Men and women don't know each other. Jia Lian is about the same age as Kau Yatou, and they are not related by blood. What's the matter with letting him visit the doctor?"

"Isn't there another Jia Baoyu?"

Jia Min paused: "I just said, why do you have to bring a child when you come to pick up someone? It turns out that it is to prevent the girl from pretending to be sick?"

After thinking it over clearly, Jia Min's perception of the two nephews outside became worse and worse.

Who are these people!
