The eldest brother of the Lin family in the Red Chamber

Looking at people under the lamp, it is always more attractive than usual, not to mention that Shui Rong is a tall, jade-faced, and personable man. Lin Mo turned his head and looked at him pretending to be stupid, and his heart moved, and he lowered his head Go, don't know what to think.Lin Mo thought for a while, but finally didn't ask.

He didn't dare to ask.

Jingxian also drank a lot of wine, the queen wanted to keep her in the palace for a night, but she resigned because it was not suitable for etiquette. He held her, warm and strong.

She looked up at her husband.

"Jingning was shocked today." Lin Mowen smiled softly, with a bit of shame in his tone, "It's my fault. You drank a lot today, but do you feel cold?"

As soon as the early winter wind blew, and the smell of alcohol was on her head, Jingxian shivered. Lin Mo helped her into the carriage, and said, "I asked Shen Bao to go back and report the news first. Yu'er Che'er should have prepared ginger tea. Go back and drink it quickly." Drink, and cool down."

As a husband, this man is always so considerate that he can't find a single fault.Leaning on his head, Jingxian could only feel the breath of King Jing in her nostrils, and the smell of alcohol hit her. She couldn't tell what she was thinking, but she felt groggy, and her chest felt uncomfortably tight.The carriage bumped again, she frowned, took out an old handkerchief to cushion it, the carriage bumped, and vomited half a mouthful of sour water.

"Have you caught a cold?" Lin Mo probed her forehead, not shying away from the maid beside her, and took her wrist to feel her pulse, but was startled, "Lan Ke hasn't come to check your pulse these two days?"

Xi'er hurriedly asked: "Master Hou, grandma is—"

"Go back and ask third brother to have a look." Lin Mo said, but her smile deepened, even Jingxian had never seen her husband so happy.In the past, he always smiled when he saw people, but when something happened, he kept his expression on his face, so as not to let others see his emotions, and he had never seen him so happy, even his eyes were warm, so she Supporting himself up, he asked, "So, is it true?"

Lin Mo raised his eyebrows and asked, "Oh, do you have feelings?"

"How can I not feel it." Kong Jingxian asked seriously, "Master Hou thinks, does this child come at the right time? The appearance in the palace today was accidental or planned. Whoever disliked Master Hou? Is it dangerous for you to work in the Ministry of Household Affairs, and does the Hou know it well?"

Lin Mo looked at her with a smile: "So what if there are no counts?"

Jingxian stood there in a daze.

"As a parent, what you should worry about is your child's future temperament and ability. I have always worried about whether a person like me is qualified to be a child's father, whether I can teach him what is right and what is wrong, and whether I can teach him what is right and what is wrong. I can take care of him with all my energy. It’s just that now, I suddenly don’t think about anything. All I can think about is that I’m going to be a father.” Lin Mo said, “There will be a soft child who will call me father, who will call me father. I'm so angry, I can only think about this for a child who is younger than Che'er Yu'er, and I can't think about anything else."

Jingxian said in a hoarse voice: "But Lord Hou, you have seen the situation today, what if the King of Beijing didn't speak? What if the Supreme Emperor insisted that you are the blood of a loyal and loyal thousand-year-old?"

Lin Mo snorted coldly: "Am I so easy to bully?"

"Your Majesty is not fundamental enough." Jingxian couldn't say it out loud. There is really no one who is similar for no reason in this world. Lin Mo is definitely not the son of a righteous and loyal thousand-year-old, but

Lin Mo heard the voice and said, "Don't worry about it. If you were to worry about my affairs in this situation, I wouldn't be a man anymore. I was invited by Princess Beijing yesterday and said she was greedy." I asked someone to send those preserved fruits, I’m afraid I’m going to lose my promise? Is there anything you want to eat or play with?”

Jingxian said: "It's not so stingy that you don't give the preserved fruit to others, let alone sister Hui wants it. Besides—" she said in a deliberate tone, "You have to ask the third brother to have a look to make sure."

She thought that this child might be no different from her when she was born—no worries about food and clothing, learning the Four Books and Five Classics from the moment she could speak, maybe a marriage could be settled when she was young, and her parents respected each other like a guest, as if they were the closest stranger.The stern nanny came to teach the rules, told him what he could do and what he couldn't do, and bound everything within those rules and regulations. In the future, boys may become officials in the court, girls will marry an official, and may live a stable life , maybe there are constant turmoil, and his background always has to be like this.

How many people envy such a child?

But is it really enviable?

Her fingers trembled slightly, feeling a little weak.

The carriage slowly drove into the Jingyuan Marquis Mansion, Lin Ke personally waited with a soft sedan chair, Lin Mo half-embraced Jingxian, Lin Ke waited on the sedan chair, and whispered: "Master, the second son of Rongguo Mansion The wife and a few girls are there, and in the afternoon, I had a conflict with the girl, the third master, and the second master Rong, and said that they would wait for you to come back to discuss an explanation."

Lin Mo asked, "What conflict?"

"The girl said, if the Rongguo Mansion really doesn't want this relative in our mansion, there are many ways to do it." After Lin Ke finished speaking nonchalantly, Lin Mo said with a smile: "It's my sister after all, she has the spirit of our Lin family girl. The second wife of Jia's family is also interesting, and I don't shy away from it at night, and there are a few young girls who just spend the night at relatives' homes like this, and they are not afraid that it will be bad news." He said, "I think the Rong family's car is still there. Where is Jia Geer?"

Lin Ke responded, "Exactly."

"Where is Mrs. Jia Er now?"

"Miss Jia left a few Miss Jia to live in Oufang Garden, and the second wife is also there."

Oufang Garden is quite a quiet place in the Lin Garden, facing the pond, there are weeping willows and red peaches, the scenery is very unique, originally planned to raise a troupe, but Lin Mo is not good at this, and Daiyu doesn't like it It's busy, so it's free there. When Jingxian is free, she raises a few fish there. Now it's suitable for the girls of Jia's family to live there.

"Tell Che'er to go inside and give Jingning a pulse - Jia'er lives in the room ahead of me, I have something to say to him tonight, tell him that I don't need him to stand up for me, tell him to leave Jia's house Stay away from people. By the way, let Mrs. Jia know that I am back. It’s late today, so we can talk about it tomorrow.”

Jingxian said: "You should go to pay a visit when discussing etiquette."

Lin Mo said, "I'm too lazy to talk to her. You go and rest—I'll go see my sister first."

Daiyu was frightened for a whole day today, and was angered by Mrs. Wang again. She cried for a long time, worried, seeing her brother came back intact, she was surprised and happy at the same time, she just wanted to throw herself into his arms and tell all the grievances of today, but Finally stopped.Lin Mo smiled and said, "Aren't you crying again today? Why don't you come to me to act like a baby when you cry? I like my sister to act like a baby since I was a child. I heard about the Jia family. You are right. Don't treat us as relatives, we have a good title and people, and our life is more comfortable than them? You should rush to beg them. It's just what did she say that made you so angry?"

Xueyan interjected from the side: "Master, you have to make the decision for our girl, Mrs. Jia is here today"

Daiyu hurriedly said, "Xueyan, don't say anything!"

"Xue Yan'er, don't be afraid, you girls are not willing to punish you. Tell me what's going on." Lin Mo's smile gradually disappeared.

Xue Yan couldn't be angry at all, but Lin Mo's eyes frightened her, and she blurted out: "Mrs. Jia, come and say that the master in Shandong has committed the crime of deceiving the emperor, and the master will implicate the girl, and ask the girl to stay away from Lin's house and clean up." Take the wife's dowry and go back to Jia's house with her."

"It's strange that you said that this relative can't do it." Lin Mo said, "Don't be afraid, I'll be here for everything. You shouldn't talk to her today, tell her to stop her outside, and no one will say that I What. My brother is fighting for a title outside to seek an official position. Firstly, he wants to pursue his ambitions as a man. Secondly, he wants you to live better. If you are still at home, you can’t dare to do this, or you can’t do it, and I’m working in vain.”

Daiyu was amused by him and said, "Brother, what are you talking about. Mrs. Jia is still an elder."

"She is the elder and the second wife of the Jia family, but I don't want to call her second aunt." Lin Mo patted her on the head and whispered, "Do you still want to?"

Daiyu shook her head lightly, and said: "I only want my elder brother, sister-in-law and younger brother to be good, and the Lin family is fine. I'm a small-minded person, and it's enough to pretend to be the Lin family." Then she hurriedly asked, "Brother and sister-in-law? Why did you enter the palace today?"

Lin Mo said: "Prince Yun Jun returned to the capital, the Supreme Emperor thought that I looked somewhat similar to him—"

Daiyu took a long breath: "Is this really true?"

"Only he thinks it, but he is the Supreme Emperor, so even if he thinks it alone, I have to go to the palace to show him whether he looks like it or not." Lin Mo smiled helplessly, "It's already It’s okay, what’s there to believe in alarmist talk? You’ve lived with your brother for so many years, and you still don’t believe him?”

Daiyu nodded heavily and said, "I can save it. Tomorrow, Mrs. Jia will be there."

"Let me tell you, you just stay at home." Lin Mo sneered, "She just relied on my love of fame and didn't dare to fight with villains. What's the matter? It's just that, the hand is too long, don't say that she is just the daughter-in-law of the Rongguo Mansion, she is the Rongguo himself, and no one cares about this kind of thing!"

Daiyu was about to say something when she heard Yun Chu's crisp voice: "Miss, have you stopped?"

"No, sister, please come in." Zijuan answered for her.

Yun Chu walked in with a smile, and seeing Lin Mo was there, he bowed his knees and said, "The third master sent me here to ask for rewards from the lord and the girl." Lin Mo smiled and bent his eyebrows, and said, "Order the accountant, this month Double the monthly money. For the elder grandma who waits by her side, each person will add two taels of silver."

Daiyu couldn't figure it out at first, but when she saw her brother in such a mood, she said pleasantly, "Could it be that sister-in-law—"

Lin Mo smiled and shook his fingers.

Daiyu also beamed with joy: "It's such a happy event." Sweeping away the nervousness and gloom in the afternoon, "What a wonderful thing! It should be rewarded well. Does sister-in-law want to eat anything? How is your body? The third brother will give it to her." Prescribe some nourishing prescriptions—the bird’s nest I ate a few days ago was fine, and the medicinal diet my brother gave me was also good.”

Lin Mo said: "Silly sister, how can you take medicine casually. With Che'er here, what kind of tonic should your sister-in-law take? There will be no difference. Tomorrow, a shopkeeper named Shanrentang will bring some safe old people to the house Have a look and prescribe the medicine."

Daiyu smiled and said, "I'm confused." She laughed all the way, but shed tears at the same time.

Lin Mo was taken aback: "What is this for? Is my sister unhappy?"

"No, I'm very happy, very happy." Daiyu remembered that she had a younger brother, one or two years younger than herself, who was born to one of her father's aunts. Daiyu hated this sick boy at that time. The younger brother—the mother was not in good health at that time, but the father had a son, and the family still wanted to put the younger brother under the mother's name, and she was really upset.

Jia Min lay on the bed, touched her little head and said, "What does Yu'er want to do so much? With one more brother, our Lin family can be regarded as having a descendant. In the future, Yu'er will have her mother's family to rely on. Otherwise, what will Yu'er do?" Where are you?"

But the weak child did not even live to a hundred days.

Jia Min cried even more sadly than that aunt.

She is not necessarily the untimely death of the sad concubine, more, it is probably the future of the Lin family's heirs and daughter.

It has been almost ten years, and Daiyu still remembers Jia Min's trembling fingers and voice at that time: "Only if there is a male heir in the family, can the Lin family be considered as having a descendant, and you, Yu'er, can be considered as having a real family. If your father and I If you are gone, you can still live a good life, no matter what storms you will experience in the future, there will always be someone who will stand up for you."

Without that concubine brother, she has a very good brother and a third brother.Cousin Rong, now, is going to have a nephew

The Lin family finally has a future.

If the parents know about it, they must be happy and relieved.
