The eldest brother of the Lin family in the Red Chamber

After the imperial doctor Song left, Zijuan was rather dissatisfied: "This matter shouldn't be for a girl to come out." Although it is a matter of the Lin family, but Daiyu is a girl who has not left the cabinet. , It is inevitable that they will talk about her, and her reputation is very bad.What's more, Lin Che's elder sister-in-law is still there, so there is really no need for Daiyu to come forward.

"I'm afraid that my sister-in-law will scare Mr. Song. After all, my third brother will learn from him. Although it's good for my sister-in-law to speak out, it's just too serious. I have no identity, and I can say it casually, which can be regarded as a substitute for the third brother." My younger brother is in his early years." Daiyu said sadly, "I was the one who caused the trouble, if it wasn't for the relatives I brought, he wouldn't have been in such a dilemma."

Zijuan persuaded: "Why do you think so, girl? The uncle is not a thing in the pool, even if he does not have the title of the master, he can still stand out. The eldest grandmother is the jewel in the palm of Princess Hehui. With an identity like the third master, in the imperial hospital, There are always people who want to win him over, so what is the relationship with the girl?"

Daiyu sighed, still feeling helpless, she only hoped that she could remind Song Taiyi a few words in her words today, so that the third brother should not think too much.Xueyan and Chunxian bit their ears and said: "The girl always said that the third master thinks more, and she thinks more. Although the body has improved a lot in the past few years, I think the doctor said today that he still needs to take care of himself. What should I do if I am always so worried? "Chun Xian is also helpless: "You have been with the girl since Suzhou, we don't know that you don't know the girl's thoughtfulness? I just hope that everyone in the family is well, and the girl can take less burden. thought."

As a dry girl, Daiyu was also worried about Daiyu's life in Lin's family. She only thought that the uncle was not her own. It would be considered righteous if she was willing to find a husband's family for the girl and accompany her with some dowry.It's just that they have been here for a year or two, and they can see it clearly. I'm afraid that my brother doesn't do as much as my uncle, and I hope that the girl will stay at home for a few more years.Even if you marry into someone else's family, how can you be a girl so leisurely and comfortable.

It's just the girl's lifelong event, and the uncle never mentions Xueyan. Although she is young and ignorant, after so many years, she also knows that some officials who are in office always want to marry girls back and forth in order to win over ministers. In Rongguo Mansion, there are also many people asking to marry the girl next to the second grandmother for the sake of face. Although the uncle is good to the girl, what if he betroths the girl to a layman who doesn't know the wind and moon?

Just as she was thinking, Xi'er beside Jingxian came over: "Xueyan, is the girl there? Grandma just saw the prescription prescribed by Doctor Song, let me take a look at the bird's nest that the girl uses, it's from her own shop Is it in the box or someone else gave it?"

Xueyan quickly lifted the curtain and went out: "The girl is inside. The bird's nest was sent by Lin Si's family in the warehouse. I also saw that the condition was fine, so I didn't ask where it was sent. Why, what's wrong with the bird's nest? "

"Don't mention it." Xi'er lowered her voice, "Do you still remember that the third master got angry that day and said something about businessmen? Our grandma is still weird, okay, who caused the third master to say these words. This No, I just found out. It is said that he and the Xue family are registered merchants in the household department, and they are also one of the largest households. All the sweet-scented osmanthus bureaus in Chang'an city and outside the city belong to his family, and even the bonsai displayed in the palace is also the sweet-scented osmanthus presented by his family. In the Xia family, someone from the shop came to the hall to say that there were good herbs to resell. The shopkeeper saw that the quality of what they sent was really good, so he placed an order, and there were some bird's nests. Who knew that someone would actually deliver the goods, It wasn't a good product that day at all! Thanks to the shopkeeper for being careful, otherwise, what would happen to our Tangzi's reputation? The third master is young and vigorous, and he is ready to sue."

Xueyan was also taken aback: "How do you say that? It's such a big deal?"

"Grandma said, don't worry about those people, the Patriarch of the Xia family left early, and now we are orphans and widows, our family has certification and physical evidence in the lawsuit, and we are afraid that we will not win, but we are just afraid that others will not know the entanglement. Said that we are bullying others. Grandma asked the third master to bear this anger, and only asked people to bring those herbs to the door of Xia's shop and spread them out, so that neighbors can see the good medicine of Osmanthus osmanthus Xia's! No, be careful I asked the shopkeeper, and said that the herbal bird's nest that I was waiting for that time had not been sent home to the girl, but grandma was still worried, so she asked sister Xueyan to take a look."

This is really a big deal, Xueyan was also so frightened that her heart was pounding, she hurriedly called Zijuan Wenqin, and the three of them went to the small kitchen where Daiyu decocted medicine, took out all the bird's nest medicinal materials in the warehouse, and carefully identified whether it was Okay, I was relieved.Wen Qin still felt sorry for her: "Fortunately, the shopkeeper was a bit more distracted. He just couldn't go to court for the sake of his reputation. I really can't bear this tone."

Xi'er sneered and said: "Someone wants our family to settle down, but I'm not afraid of the jokes of the two sisters. I'm my age, so I've never seen someone who dares to bully others so arrogantly! Our uncle taught me to show off my appearance." Such a cousin is not afraid of having a master Lin in his family. Back then, the second master was in charge of the family, and there were drug farmers in Jinan who thought he was young and wanted to pass off the second master as a good one. When the second master returned, he dared to say that the second master was no Kindness, bullying. What is the result? Even if we look at how our uncle cherishes his reputation, we have to see whether he takes it for granted."

Xueyan and the others didn't know what happened in Jinan, so they still said to themselves: "That being said, are you just letting others bully you?"

Wen Qin said: "Just wait and see. The second master can't swallow this breath. I really think our uncle is a Bodhisattva, and it doesn't hurt to poke a needle."

"If that's the case, it's not like a Bodhisattva is a piece of wood." Xi'er said.She is Jingxian's girl, and she has the deepest feeling. Jingning County Lord is so old, everyone says she is gentle and virtuous, only a few of them know that Xiaojun Lord never suffers, her temper is not only cold, but sometimes she is stubborn However, just as soon as it happened, the bridal chamber wedding night was disowned by my uncle, and she was left in the cold for a few months. Now my aunt has become more cautious, which can't help but make Xi'er feel sad and happy at the same time.

Zijuan also felt that Lin Mo was not a mud bodhisattva, so she said to Xueyan, "Why are you so anxious? Even if you don't mention the status of grandpa and grandma, our family is considered honorable anyway, and there is no reason for merchants to trample on us. Have read the books, haven't you heard of scholars, farmers, businessmen, people are the worst!"

Lin Mo is indeed not a bully, but some people are right. If this matter really comes to court, he is really afraid that the neighbors who don't know the situation will say that he is bullying the small.How did Lin Han handle it back then? "Old Zhang, you are complaining now, am I beating you or scolding you? Go back and let the neighbors to see if our Lin family is bullying! But from now on, your family members will not care about their illnesses. , Shan Ren Tang will not make outpatient visits. Don’t come into the gate of our Shan Ren Tang either. "Walk carelessly on the road, step on something dirty, do you have to turn around and yell at the dirty things to relieve your anger?He stopped Lin Che who was going to file a lawsuit, and told the housekeeper to go to Grandma for advice.

Jingxian has always been arrogant and arrogant, and she might be more impulsive than Lin Che when she does things, but she has the reputation of being the first daughter of the Kong family. To be honest, she is indeed rude in many things, and people can only grit their teeth Admit it.It is Princess Jia Guifei of Nan'an, have you ever tried to please her?

Kong Jingxian didn't say much: "What kind of lawsuit? Ask someone to pull the grass to the door of Xia's house and dump it, and send some articulate people to talk about the matter to the people around you."

"Grandma, is this appropriate?" Lin Ke's family asked in surprise, "Let's talk about it outside"

"I'm just afraid that outsiders won't talk about it." Kong Jingxian said, "Just say it well." Her face was cold, and the corners of her eyes were sharp and sharp. It looks extraordinarily intimidating.Lin Ke's family felt hesitant, and said, "This servant knows."

Lin Mo heard this, and said to Lin Che, "That's very good, when dealing with scoundrels, don't go head-to-head with them."

Lin Che said, "I'm just wondering who gave their family the guts to sell all the fake things to our family."

"Even my younger sister knows this truth. Do you really or falsely don't know? The Xia family dares to sell like this, so it doesn't mean they are confident. They think that our family is just like the people they met before. The good stuff has been sold. There are so many pharmacies in Beijing, do you really think they are all blind? You can’t tell at all, but Xia’s family has the name of the Imperial Merchant, and things can be faked. It’s true. It's much cheaper. Che'er has a pure heart, and we have brother Han and I in our family, so we don't need you to do the reasoning, but you should have a sense of what this person thinks in his heart."

Lin Che buried the words in her heart, and became happy again: "But sister-in-law is really happy to come out."

"This time, Concubine Jingyuan, Concubine Kong's concubine, and Junjun Jingning enjoyed doing it, but it was not at all happy to do it in someone else's house, and there were all those who were beaten up. You guys, have fun too. Lin Mo laughed, "It's fine as it is now."

This time the Xia family was also in bad luck, their family was very rich, and the head of the family left early, but fortunately, the family members helped each other, and they had some foundations.They have done this shoddy business many times. Firstly, the quality is really good enough to confuse the real ones. Secondly, as Lin Mo said, other people are also greedy for his cheap. In this way, they still have a lot of money in their hands. less handle.Who would have expected Lin Che to be so clueless?

"Let's file a lawsuit! Let's deliver the goods in good condition. If they say they don't want it, they don't want it, and they slander us with empty words. Isn't there a Marquis in the family? That's still someone else's title, and the son has passed to someone else's family." !" After Xia Chen's harsh words, she was still afraid in her heart, and begged her cousin, "You have to make the decision for your sister-in-law, and you can't let others bully my orphans and widows like this!"

Xia Chen's younger uncle, Xia Gonghe, was handed over to the tribe in the early years, and he was not considered a businessman. He became an official in martial arts, and now he is a fifth-rank infantry military academy. He hasn't seen each other for more than ten years, and his brother ran back when he died. No one can tell what it is to be a backer for my sister-in-law and niece.He responded immediately: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, with me here, I will not let my sister-in-law feel wronged."

Xia Chen knew that his uncle didn't have much ability, but at least he had the face of a few princes, so he was relieved.

Who knew that the Lin family didn't hand in the certificate at all, they just found someone, put the pile of herbs in front of Xia's shop, and a young man with the appearance of a gentle doctor bowed his hands to the onlookers: "Dear folks and elders in Beijing, My surname is Gu, my single name is Shun, and my name is Lan Ke. I sit in the Shanren Hall in the east of the city. Last month, the third treasurer of the Xia family brought a good herb to Xiaosheng. Liang, thinking that with such a good medicine, it would be more convenient for us to cure diseases and save lives, so he recommended it to our head of the family, and made an appointment with their three shopkeepers, but who knew that what they sent was such a thing, and it was worth a copper coin. Don’t let us miss them! Now in front of the elders and fellow villagers, Xiaosheng also admits that he is dead, but just put these things here for everyone to see and debate, such as this Sichuan safflower, put it in the water and try it , folks, take a look at this flower, the red color has faded away! If someone takes this medicine, will the disease be cured? And this Angelica dahurica, smell it.”

Gu Shun was eloquent, and his voice was clear and pleasing. Several carts of herbs were spread out on the ground. He said one by one, and he didn't mention the matter of making the Xia family lose money. Talking so slowly, it really made Xia's mouth full of blood in his throat. He didn't know what to say, but he could only call: "Go to Master Xia quickly, someone is blocking the door of the shop and making trouble!"

"The shopkeeper's words are unfair. This road was built by Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture. It faces south and north. As long as you live in Beijing, you can step on it. The villagers who come and go on foot haven't said that I am in the way. , it’s still so far away from your shop, is it stopping everyone from entering your shop or hindering your business?” Gu Shun adjusted his sleeves and pretended to bow, “I’m alone, how can I make trouble?"

There were people booing around, and the shopkeeper of the Xia family's face turned red and then turned pale, not knowing what to say.

"Anyway, this garbage belongs to your family, and I only removed half of the seal. Our shopkeeper said that taking out these garbage will harm people and harm morality!"

Gu Shun was born and raised in Beijing, and he said this paragraph after paragraph in an orderly manner: "I am not afraid that the folks will say that I am talking big, our Shanren Hall in Beijing is just a shop, and it is still an old lady after all. Leave it to our uncle to collect some money to reward the servants, if you really want to disturb your shop, do you need me here?"

Shanrentang has good medical skills and a good reputation, but the business in Beijing is so good, half of it is the Lin family's business for so many years, and half of it is because others know that behind their house is the Marquis of Jingyuan. Frame a flower seller in your family?

Gu Shun picked it up as soon as it was ready, leaving a field of herbs behind, and drove away with the donkey cart, with a clean and beautiful posture.Rong Jia watched from the building, couldn't help but clapped his hands and said, "Since when did your family have such a shrewd little brother? I still think I can come out of the rivers and lakes to help my cousin fight the lawsuit again, who knows that it won't be necessary at all. "

Lin Che said: "When you were young, didn't you always envy your elder brother for Wen Ge's service? The Gu Di Wen Ge gave to him now is his elder brother. His father praised their brothers for their cleverness and cuteness before he was alive, so he accepted their father as his apprentice."

"I've never seen such an interesting character." Rong Jia sighed.

"When you came to our house, besides the eldest brother, who else have you paid attention to? Even the second brother didn't see you calling him twice." Lin Che laughed.

Whether Lan Ke is interested or not has nothing to do with you. Uncle is coming in a few days, right? "He imitated Rong Mingqian's tone, "You kid has been working as a job for a year, have you learned anything?"Did you miss your homework?How are you practicing martial arts? "

Rong Jia pushed him: "You only have your cousin in your eyes!"

"Look, there are two cousins ​​of yours in our family. Where did you put my second brother? I am the eldest brother and second brother, and now I have my sister who flatters me!"

Rong Jia touched the small green thorn that had just started to appear on her chin and said, "Your sister is really good."

Lin Che lowered her face: "Cousin, are you courting death?"

Rong Jia also realized that what she said was wrong.With a chill in my heart, I looked around: "Don't be angry. I said nonsense."
