Continue the love affair of the red mansion

into the night.

The moonlight poured over the garden, like a veil of smoke, hazy and quiet.

Exactly, three points of the world are moonlit nights, and two points of rogues are in Yangzhou.

Daiyu sat in front of the window with her chin resting on her back, looking at the bright moon quietly, her long hair piled with dark clouds and emerald green was tied up casually, with only a white satin tied around it.

"Is the girl asleep?" Someone outside the room asked, Daiyu recognized that it was Aunt Yun, and hurriedly asked someone to come in.Aunt Yun came in and handed a box to Daiyu: "Please take a look at these things."

Daiyu took a rough look at it. It was a pile of house deeds, land deeds, slave deeds, and keys. None of these things were lost after Aunt Yun's death in her previous life, and they were all handed over to Jia Lian. When I brought them back, my grandmother kept them for me, but I didn't expect that these things would be named Jia in the end. I sighed slightly, thought about it, put these things back in the box, and pushed them back to Aunt Yun: "Since I asked Auntie If you help me, you can trust my aunt. These things are accumulated by my ancestors, so I ask my aunt to keep them safe for me."

Aunt Yun was a little puzzled: "Girl, it's not that I'm afraid of getting into trouble, it's just that in the past few days, someone has been pressing me hard to hand over these things."

She hesitated again and again, and didn't say the word Jia Lian, because she was afraid that Daiyu would have doubts in her heart. Who would have thought, but Daiyu said lightly: "I know all this. You just need to tell them that you should wait for the delivery of these matters." My father's death day is full, and he will go back to his hometown and enter the soil. After everything is settled, no one can move now. Tell him again, I have no relatives, and I can only rely on this cousin."

Aunt Yun looked at Daiyu suspiciously.

The corners of Daiyu's lips twitched slightly, looking at the flickering candles on the table, she said in a low voice: "My Lin family is withered, and my suitcases have already been empty. In fact, there are not many left."

This aunt Yun is not a stupid person, she immediately understood what Daiyu meant, she was convinced, and she didn't ask any more questions immediately: "That's right, that's right. It's getting late, the girl should go to bed early. The weather is getting colder, it's better Go to bed early."

Daiyu understood the word "Zao" which was deliberately emphasized, and nodded with a smile: "Thank you, Auntie, for reminding me."

Aunt Yun went out, but Daiyu still sat there without moving, her brows fixed in thought.But just after this discussion, Fang Zhongyuan only left Nanny Wang.At this moment, after listening to Daiyu's words, Wang Momo understood Daiyu's plan. The Lin family was originally from a prominent family in Gusu. Back then, Lin Ruhai was hired by the Salt Administration, and Yun and his family were in office. Only then did the family come to Yangzhou. The fields and houses are all in Gusu's original place, and some clansmen other than Wufu will take care of them with him. Now, just start to inquire and sort out these things clearly. After arriving in Gusu, there are rules to follow. Thinking about it, he poured a cup of warm water for Daiyu and handed it over, "Who is the girl planning to send to do this matter. This is the most important thing, and it needs to be done quickly."

Daiyu looked at Wang Mama and said, "I'm thinking that there is someone who can live close to me, but I just need Mama Wang's consent."

Wang Momo thought for a while, then said abruptly: "The girl is talking about my boy? If the girl speaks, of course there is nothing else to say, just send him to do it. If he dares to have any tricks, I will interrupt him." the lone crutch."

Daiyu smiled slightly and said, "Of course I'm relieved of my elder brother's work. However, when he arrives in Gusu, he will inevitably be unfamiliar and can't find a way out. I have already made up my mind with him. Said, I have a relative who is very far away, although they are far away, they are of the same genealogy, and I can hardly call him Grandpa Zeng. It’s a bit thin-skinned, my father had a little friendship with him before he won fame, but after visiting Lantai Temple, the old man kept away from him to avoid being suspected of clinging. When my brother arrives in Gusu, you might as well meet him first.” Said Then he took out a green jade wrench finger: "This wrench is father's belonging, please bring it to my brother so that we can talk. Before leaving, I will go to Aunt Yun's place to pay 5000 taels for my business."

After hearing this, Wang Momo nodded again and again: "But it turns out that there is such a thing, it's hard for the girl to have such a clear mind. I will definitely tell him."

Daiyu was grateful in her heart, she stood up, and Yingying saluted: "Daiyu thanked the mother first."

Wang Momo hurriedly grabbed Daiyu and said, "Girl, what are you doing? If it wasn't for Mrs. Madam that day, let alone my old life, I don't know where that kid's life is." She paused , and said sadly: "The old slave just loves the girl. At this age, he has to suffer these grievances and worry about these things."

Daiyu smiled bitterly: "I can't say that, it's my life. If I don't fight for it myself, no one will fight for me."

Grandma Wang sighed: "That's exactly what I said. I was worried that the girl was too young to think for herself, but now that she is so smart, I was overthinking it. Without further ado, I will Go and meet my unfilial boy."

Seeing Mammy Wang go out tremblingly, Daiyu heaved a long sigh, "Mommy, how do you know, it took me a lifetime to understand this.

The cool night wind blew across the window lattice, the lights in the room fluttered and dimmed, and Daiyu's cold silhouette was like ink and wash lightly dyed and faint, outlining a touch of loneliness.

Lin Ruhai was suspended for 27 days, and Daiyu helped her spirit back to Suzhou. There was Aunt Yun in the inner curtain, and she was safe everywhere.Jia Lian still took care of the outside affairs, because Daiyu had already spoken through Aunt Yun, so Jia Lian believed the truth, and under the benefit, everything was handled more carefully, and the funeral was handled very decently.Besides, most of the old servants of the Lin Mansion were in love with each other, so they moved to Gusu.Most of the silver coins in the mansion were sent by Aunt Yun to change the bank notes, and they took them with them, and all the treasures were also counted and cataloged. In the end, a red sandalwood carved wooden box with many treasures was solemnly handed over. To Daiyu: "This is Madam's dowry and her own son back then. It is not considered Lin's property. It was supposed to be handed over to the girl when she was young, but I didn't expect it... I thought about it. I don't know how much it is here. It's appropriate, and the girl should keep it in person." Daiyu heard that it was her mother's dowry, so she didn't force it, and ordered Zijuan Xueyan to put it away carefully.

After her father was buried, Daiyu lived in Hanshan Temple with Aunt Yun because she wanted to do things for her father and to keep her filial piety. Guarding her, she concentrated on pilgrimage from morning to night, seemingly ignoring foreign affairs, but in fact, someone had already penetrated the turmoil outside.

Jia Lian was full of hope, and when Lin Ruhai entered the ancestral tomb, he finally took care of the Lin family's wealth.The Lin family is a prominent family in Gusu, descended from five generations of princes, a scholarly family, and Lin Ruhai was loved a lot. He was in charge of the salt administration for many years. The most important thing is the salt administration. Jia Lian thought that he should have a lot of savings and countless lands.Who would have thought that after Jia Lian took an inventory, most of the houses and fields were gone, only a few old houses or ancestral halls remained, that's all.What's more, I don't know who told this matter to the clan of Lin's Wai Wufu. An octogenarian stood up and called himself Lin Huiyan. He was the patriarch of the Lin clan. This old man has a strong personality, he doesn't eat oil and salt, and has a high prestige in the local area, so it is justified to ask about this matter.This time, he only focused on Jia Lian's actions, and frequently invited people from the ancestors of the Lin family to cross-examine the accounts. Everything must be attributed to Daiyu's name, but Daiyu also acquiesced, making Jia Lian unable to act on his own. It was a lot of rubbing fire and thinking about it, but with the identity of a fellow prefect, the family member of Jia's family went to see the prefect of Gusu, and asked the prefect to come forward and suppress him.Seeing that there was money to be made, the magistrate was frightened by Jia's mansion, and there was no one who refused to accept it.

Therefore, Jia Lian changed into brand-new clothes and came to the government office with enough silver on this day. He thought he could feel proud today, but he was blocked outside the flower hall. , let him go back.

Jia Lian was anxious, so he had to apologize and said with a smile: "I don't know when the magistrate will be free. I can wait for him here."

The government officials only said: "It's up to you."

Until the sun was set in the west, Jia Lian was standing outside the flower hall. There was no seat, no cup of tea, his waist was weak and his legs were sore. It's not good, before Jia Lian could open his mouth, he scolded the government official loudly: "Why, Jia Tongzhi is still here. Didn't you tell him to go back after telling you well?"

Jia Lian quickly laughed and said, "Master Zhou, didn't you say that you want to talk about my aunt's housework today..."

Zhou Zhifu frowned and said, "Housework? What does my government have to do with it! There are so many people inside and outside Gusu City, and everyone's housework is handled by the government. Do I still have to deal with official business in this yamen?"

Jia Lian was taken aback, so he had to lower his voice: "Master Zhou, I have not told you about this matter, you also agreed..." He said and handed over a stack of bank notes.

The prefect of Zhou backed away as if on fire, and said sharply: "Hey, what is the meaning of this. Zhou is an official of a parent, pleads for the people, and acts fairly. How could he violate his conscience for these things? Mr. Lin still has an orphan, so it is logical to inherit the family business, so what else can you say about Mr. Lin's righteousness. Go back quickly, and don't mention this matter again."

After some words, Jia Lian was scolded, not to mention that Jia Lian went back in despair, but said that the prefect of Zhou sent Jia Lian away, wiped his sweat tremblingly, and stood in the flower hall Outside the closed door: "My lord, I don't know how the subordinate officials dealt with it like this, but it is still appropriate. If there is anything wrong, please give me your advice."

The room was silent for a long time before a man's low voice came: "Kneeling outside."

In just four words, there was no sound of joy or anger, but there was an irresistible pressure in the calm and breezy.
