The eldest son of the concubine who crossed the red mansion

"The fan that my uncle ordered to find has been found for you." Mo Cheng pulled out a slender brocade box, opened it and put it on the table, "I bought it from a man named Stone Nervous."

Stone nerd?Lin Yuxuan didn't expect that Mo Cheng would find the sufferer in this book who had been terribly harmed by Jia She, so he picked up his fan and looked at it carefully.This fan is made of high-quality sandalwood as the bone, and the fan surface is the original work of the master of calligraphy and painting in the previous dynasty. The painting is a picture of plum blossom and snow.

"Things are good, but I heard that stone nerd loves fans so much, why is he willing to give up so quickly?" Lin Yuxuan knew Mo Cheng's character very well, and he would never do anything threatening.But that stone nerd is a well-known idiot, so he sold the fan so readily this time, so he was worried that there was something else going on.

"No matter how much you love fans, you can't resist the temptation of silver bills. That stone nerd is from a poor family, and he wanted to sell the fan a long time ago. I just bought this fan back with a little more money." Mo Chenghui Said, "After selling this fan, the stone nerd said that he would take other treasures to go back to his hometown. I saw that he was still a little bit reluctant."

Lin Yuxuan nodded in relief.This fan is an important supporting role in his next plan, if he can't get it, then this plan will be meaningless.

"Master," Jiayi walked in, "People from the Rongguo Mansion sent a message, saying that the uncle and the girl are invited to visit the mansion on April 28."

Lin Yuxuan only had to think about it for a while and he remembered that April 28 was Jia Baoyu's birthday, and he and Lin Daiyu had been there in previous years.It's just that now that Lin Daiyu is waiting to be married, there's no reason to ask her to go to a foreign boy's birthday party.Lin Yuxuan thought for a while, and said: "Those who have returned to Jia's house, my sister is waiting to be married, so it is not suitable to go out. On April 28th, I will personally go to congratulate Second Master Bao."

"Yes." Jiayi was the one who waited on Lin Yuxuan, and couldn't understand the meaning of the two words "good" in Lin Yuxuan's words, so she smiled secretly and went out to answer.

Lin Yuxuan looked at the fan on the table, and hooked the corners of his mouth meaningfully.

Lin Yuxuan never expected that the protagonist of Jia Baoyu's birthday was not Jia Baoyu, but himself.

Originally, most of the faces of the two families were torn apart. Lin Yuxuan didn't expect to get a good look from Jia Mu, but as soon as he walked in, he was welcomed into the main hall, wearing a dark green blouse with broken red flowers and a collar Jia Mu, who was in a dark purple horse-face skirt, held his hand lovingly and asked for his warmth.

Lin Yuxuan was frightened. He covered his mouth with the corner of his sleeve, coughed and said, "Thank you, old lady, for your concern. Everything is fine."

"Speaking of which, there is still more than a month before you are going to get married. Is everything ready in the house?" Mother Jia asked with a smile.

"It's all ready. In fact, everything is under the care of the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so I don't have to worry too much." Lin Yuxuan replied a little wary.

"After all, our two families are in-laws. It is a good thing for you to marry the princess. I have two pots of red coral here, which are very festive. You can take them back to the Lin Mansion later." Jia Mu said, "Yu'er is also getting married. Well, the black lacquered ivory carved peony screen was woven in the south of the Yangtze River before, and it can be regarded as an addition to Yu'er's makeup. There is also a box of silk and jewelry, and I will take them back with me later."

"Thank you, Madam." Lin Yuxuan frowned slightly. What was Mother Jia's intention in giving them such generous gifts?

"Speaking of which, our family gave birth to a concubine, and you also became a princess. From then on, you will have a bright future. I don't worry about anything, I just think that our two families can have a good relationship for a long time. After all, your family is in the capital. The foundation is not deep, and it is appropriate to spend more time with people in the capital." Jia Mu looked carefully at Lin Yuxuan's expression, and saw that his expression had recovered for a moment, and said, "Actually, our two families are relatives by marriage. It’s also beneficial to communicate.”

"It is said that the princess is honored, but I am only a seventh-rank official after all, how can I compare with the second uncle?" Lin Yuxuan said with a faint smile, "The empress in the palace is the one who is favored, it is us foreign officials. It has also been heard that the old lady is the one with infinite glory. As for me, I feel that I still need to work harder now, and I can't be complacent just because I married a princess."

Mother Jia couldn't hold back her face.Who doesn't know that Xue Baochai suddenly appeared in the palace, and the emperor was so happy in the past half a month, Jia Yuanchun is now alone in the vacant room, how can there be any kind of favor?She cleared her throat, and said: "You are right. You will be the master of the Lin family in the future. It's just that in Beijing, it's impossible not to associate more with some aristocratic families."

"Thank you, Madam, for your teaching." Lin Yuxuan just didn't answer.

Mother Jia couldn't help it, but Mrs. Wang suddenly said: "I heard that Brother Xuan has no one to serve him now. Is it true that there are not enough maids in the mansion? Why don't you pick one from our mansion and go back? good."

Lin Yuxuan smiled gently, and said, "I can't make decisions about the people in my room alone, so I won't bother Second Aunt."

Mrs. Wang wanted to continue talking, but Mother Jia changed the subject.Lin Yuxuan accepted it as well, everyone had a peaceful meal, and Lin Yuxuan returned to the Lin Mansion with a bunch of gifts.

What Lin Yuxuan didn't know was that after he left, Mother Jia sent Jia Baoyu, Jia Yingchun, Jia Tanchun and others to play, but left Jia Amnesty, Mrs. Xing, Jia Zheng, and Mrs. Wang behind to talk.

"What you said just now is really a big mistake. Why did you interrupt Lin Yuxuan's room? If it gets out, it's uncertain how others will arrange our Rongguo Mansion!" Jia Mu stomped the Xiangyun stick in her hand, "Lin Yuxuan is the forehead, serving The queen of the palace has the queen in charge. Even if you want to take a concubine, you have to get the consent of the princess. What kind of person are you? How dare you ask him to pick someone in our mansion. If you accidentally spread it into the palace, I'm afraid that the empress will be ridiculed by others!"

Mrs. Wang cowardly said nothing, but Mrs. Xing persuaded: "Don't be angry, old lady."

Jia Mu never liked her daughter-in-law, so she gave her a sideways look and said: "Look, the Lin family is getting farther and farther away from us now, I'm afraid that after Yu'er gets married and the kid takes control of the Lin family, this in-law will become a decoration. "

Jia Amnesty never cared about these things, and Jia Zheng didn't know much about the back house, so he didn't say anything.Mrs. Wang twisted her handkerchief, and said: "Your Majesty is struggling in the palace now. It would be great if you can win over the Lin family. Although Princess Shuyi is an adopted daughter, she is also favored by the Empress. As long as she wins over, the empress will be in a very difficult situation." much better."

"It's easy to say, but they don't care about the olive branch we throw out." Mrs. Xing sarcastically said, "In the past, when the empress was in favor, she didn't see her to win her over. Now that the empress is out of favor, she only thinks of the Lin family. It's no wonder that people ignore you. !"

"What do you know!" Mother Jia stopped Mrs. Xing, "But if you have the ability, why don't you give advice to the empress? You know what to say here."

Mrs. Xing lowered her head, but she was very dissatisfied in her heart.It is obvious that their lineage is the eldest house. Although they live in Rongxi Hall, the power of speech in this mansion is still with the second house.In fact, it wasn't because there was a concubine in the palace. If Yingchun had been selected in the first place, how could it be the second room's turn to be arrogant here?

"The old lady's words are wrong." Jia Amnesty glanced at Jia Zheng, and said, "Your Majesty is the second brother's own daughter, so how can it be our elder brother's turn to dictate? Back then, the second wife spent a large sum of money from my grandfather to fight To put it bluntly, it can be considered that our eldest family has paid a share of the money. Now that the empress is out of favor, although it is a girl from the Xue family who was born, but in the final analysis, it is not because the second wife was unwilling to help Xue. Give me a hand, otherwise how could a girl come up with such a way to take revenge?"

Being punctured by Jia Amnesty, Mrs. Wang's face was alternately white and red, she twisted her handkerchief and gritted her teeth without speaking.

Jia's mother knew that what Jia She said was reasonable, but she couldn't just point at Mrs. Wang and scold her, she could only say: "It's meaningless to say these things now, the only thing I can think about now is how to help my mother back to favor. But it concerns the prosperity of our Jia family."

"My son never understands these things, so how can he come up with a solution. Let the second wife worry about this matter, and my son will leave first." Jia Amnesty stood up, cupped his hands casually, and left.Mrs. Xing watched and followed with small steps.

Looking at her useless eldest son, Jia's mother was so angry that she wanted to throw the crutch out of her hand.

After all, Lin Yuxuan still had an extra waiter, that was a maid beside the queen, named Haitang, 17 years old this year, with a pair of slightly raised phoenix eyes, winking like silk, a tall nose and a small cherry mouth , a pink dress outlines a well-developed figure.She was sent by the nun next to the queen herself.

Although Lin Yuxuan has been educated in ancient ethics for more than ten years, it doesn't mean that he can accept the marriage system of monogamy and multiple concubines. It's just that this woman came according to the Queen's will after all, so he can only accept it.After one night, Haitang followed the mother back to the palace.Lin Yuxuan felt a little uncomfortable all day long, always feeling like he had done something bad.

"You must be shy." Jiayi brought a bowl of fragrant apricot condensed honey, a plate of sugar-steamed shortbread, and a stack of wisteria cakes in front of Lin Yuxuan. Bar."

Lin Yuxuan blushed a little, after all, it was the first time with this body.It's just that he didn't want to experience such a thing again, so he said: "This Haitang, if possible in the future, choose a good family for her."

Jiayi was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, she realized that her little master loved the princess and didn't want the princess to be upset, so she smiled and said, "Brother doesn't want the princess to have a pimple."

Lin Yuxuan neither admitted nor denied it, but said: "I promised Prince Gong that I must treat the princess well. Besides, I don't like female sex very much, so why bother to hire some concubines to make others unhappy? Are you unhappy? I saw my wife’s lesson back then, so can you be more careful?”

"Brother can do whatever you like, the princess will agree with this matter." Jiayi said.How could any woman not wish that her husband would not take concubines and treat her wholeheartedly.If brother Xuan can do this, the princess will probably be very happy too.

Lin Yuxuan twitched the corner of his mouth.

In June, Princess Shuyi got married, and the scene of ten miles of red makeup is still memorable many years later.
