Red Mansion is so good I want to cry

Jia Xiaoniu sat there, chatting with Jia Min, while shaking her feet slightly.Although walking is still a little numb, it is not so distressing.

Jia Xiaoniu feels that all creatures on the planet have one characteristic.That is when there are no conditions, no matter how painful, no matter how difficult it is, you can persevere.But when conditions permit, a little pain will be magnified infinitely.

How many miles did she walk before Nanny Tang found out that her foot was injured?None of those roads is as easy to walk as the Lin family's yard.

Touching her face, Jia Xiaoniu felt that it was not so hard to accept that it happened to her.

(=￣w￣=)

The shoes that Jia Xiaoniu is wearing now are two sizes larger than the ones she usually wears.The soles were modified from new shoes that Jia Lian hadn't worn.The soles are thick, not only wadding cotton, but also added two layers of leather, walking, as if walking on the clouds, very comfortable.

But it's a little hot.

On the way to Lin's mansion, Jia Xiaoniu asked Jia Daishan obediently in the sedan chair that she had to walk by herself when she arrived at Lin's mansion.The reason was that she couldn't make her aunt jealous of her.Jia Daishan laughed when he heard the words, and only said, "Your aunt is not as narrow-minded as you are anymore." But he didn't reject Jia Xiaoniu's proposal.

At that time, Jia Xiaoniu was led by Lin's girl to see Jia Min.Although Nanny Tang, Yuanyang and the others followed, they only kept an eye on Jia Xiaoniu's situation, and did not propose to carry her forward.

Oh, forgot to mention that.Since the old lady wanted to go back to the capital to concentrate on her cultivation, Jia Daishan gave the mandarin duck and colored glaze that came out with her directly to Jia Xiaoniu.

All of a sudden, Jia Xiaoniu, who had two more big girls, didn't feel worried, and directly handed these two over to Nanny Tang, and she followed her arrangement.

It's better for Yuanyang to say something, she didn't really love Jia Mu, no matter who she was with, she had only one master, and that was Jia Daishan.

As for Liuli, she also knew it well, but she couldn't change her mentality for a while from the cronies of the old lady to the girl next to the girl.

But Liuli is also a smart girl, she thinks she is very lucky now.

After all, the old lady did such a thing. Not only were the girls who served the old lady not angered and... silenced, but they were even assigned to the most favored girl in the mansion because of a blessing in disguise. This is comparable to those old ladies who stayed in the mansion. The sisters in the room are much better.

In fact, Liuli still had an idea that she didn't dare to think about, that is, they waited on the old lady, but the old lady was old, and God knows what would happen to the girls who waited on her.

If the old lady went later, they would have reached the age and left the upper room at that time, that would be easier to talk about.If not, it would probably be worse than it is now.

You must know that the old man gave a password.The two ladies in the capital don't know what the old lady did.

Since you don't know, then you won't be too embarrassing for those girls.

Of course it's not embarrassing, but it doesn't mean it will be treated kindly.God knows where they will be divided by the two wives.

……

Jia Min talked to Jia Xiaoniu, and the more she talked, the more she felt that this girl was sometimes mature, sometimes innocent, but she was a very lovable companion to chat with.

Jia Min hasn't seen her natal relatives for many years, even if she is just a little girl, Jia Min's interest in chatting is not diminished.

"Your uncle is thirty-five this year, and his knees have always been empty. Now that he has your sister... you sisters should get along well in the future."

Hearing this, Jia Xiaoniu froze for a moment, and asked Jia Min in disbelief, "Uncle is only 35 years old this year?"

Lin Ruhai is only 35, isn't she?

Just that appearance... Heh, the long one is really worrying.

After asking in shock, Jia Xiaoniu realized that she asked a very stupid question.

Jia Min in front of me is well maintained, but based on Jia Xiaoniu's experience in beauty and skin care, it can be seen that Jia Min is also in her early 30s. According to the standard of choosing relatives, Jia Daishan will not choose her age for Jia Min Husband-in-law with such a big difference.

So it's really just that Lin Ruhai looks too rough.

Jia Min didn't know what the niece was thinking of, seeing her being so surprised, she was also a little confused.

After all, when you look at a person every day, whether he is old or thin, you cannot have an accurate concept.

However, Xiao Niu and the others are different. They have never seen Lin Ruhai before. When they saw Lin Ruhai today, the first impression they had was the first impression he gave.

This Lin Ruhai... really looks old.

Jia Min wanted to ask her niece why she was asking such a question, but there was a girl talking outside, saying that the table was set up ahead, and the in-laws asked the cousin to come over.

As soon as Jia Min heard this, she stopped talking and just smiled and asked the girl to send Jia Xiaoniu there.He also said that after the meal, there is no need to come back, and a good night's rest, maybe he will be busy tomorrow.

Jia Min's words were not aimless.

Tomorrow is sister Lin's full moon, and the Lin family has already sent out a lot of invitations, so the excitement is not mentioned.

Another one is that Jia Daishan, the emperor's confidant and favorite minister, although he has retired, has not given him much honor and favor today.

Those people in Yangzhou are well informed, knowing that Jia Daishan is coming, they must rush over to join in the fun.

Even without mentioning these things, there is still the youngest son living in the backyard of the Lin family.

The three things add up, and tomorrow's excitement can be imagined.

Jia Xiaoniu didn't think of this when Jia Min said this.When I found out that there were many people from the Lin family the next day, I didn't pay much attention to it.However, Shui Yuan was very annoying, and directly encouraged Jia Xiaoniu to go out with him for a day and return at night.

At this time, Jia Xiaoniu, who didn't know what was going to happen tomorrow, annoyed Jia Min, and went down to the place where Jia Daishan and the others were surrounded by girls and women.

Once at the place, Shui Yuan sat at the top, Jia Daishan and Lin Ruhai sat on the left and right side, when Jia Xiaoniu came, Shui Yuan let out a soft snort with his nose, and watched eagerly as Jia Xiaoniu sat under Jia Daishan's hands There is Jia Daishan on one side and Jia Lian on the other.

Immediately, Shui Yuan's mood began to turn sour for some reason.

During this meal, because of the sullen face of the water source, he would choke on anyone who talked to him, so it didn't warm up much after all.

Lin Ruhai was also quite helpless to receive this level of reception.

The father-in-law will come as soon as he comes, why should he bring such a 'relative of his own' along with him.

After the banquet, I drank tea again.Lin Ruhai took Jia Daishan and others back to the room to rest.

Lin Ruhai arranged a small courtyard for Jia Daishan's ancestors and grandchildren.

Jia Daishan lives in the main house, while Jia Lian and Jia Xiaoniu live in the left and right wing rooms respectively.

The source of water lives next door to the courtyard.

In fact, there is nothing inconsiderate about such an arrangement.But from the perspective of the source of water, it is extremely unreasonable.He couldn't tell where it was unreasonable, and he didn't know the reason.

Anyway, he just felt that since he came to Yangzhou, everything was not pleasing to the eye.

Shui Yuan is showing a temper that doesn't know where it came from, Jia Daishan and his grandson and darling are very happy and harmonious.

Jia Daishan first cared about Jia Xiaoniu's feet, and directly hugged Jia Xiaoniu into his arms, took off her shoes and socks, and looked at them carefully before he was relieved.

After watching the feet, Jia Daishan began to ask Jia Xiaoniu and Jia Min what they said.

Jia Xiaoniu also obediently told Jia Daishan about their conversation.Jia Daishan nodded and sighed softly.

Well, he was going to tell his daughter about it.Always let the daughter know the truth of the matter, so as not to hear any false rumors from "other places" in the future, which will damage the relationship between father and daughter.

After talking about these things, Jia Daishan turned his head and said to Jia Lian, "Your uncle was born in Tanhualang, and he is an official who inspects salt and censors in Yangzhou. You were here just now. After listening to what your uncle and I said, you are here now." Yangzhou will learn from your uncle Haosheng for a while. When you finish the examination of scholar and candidate, grandfather will send someone to take you back to the capital."

Keeping Jia Lian with Lin Ruhai in Yangzhou was also a temporary decision made by Jia Daishan this afternoon.

As the saying goes, if you compare goods, you will throw them away, and if you compare people, you will die.After Weng and his son-in-law had a conversation today, Jia Daishan discovered that Lin Ruhai had improved a lot over the years.

There was still some scholarly loyalty back then, but now it is gone.

Whether it is dealing with people or being an official, they are not comparable to Jia Daishan's two sons.The more Jia Daishan saw Lin Ruhai, the more he felt that his vision was good back then.

Of course, the itching was even more unbearable.

It's a pity that his two sons are not by his side, and his old disease that was stimulated and relapsed may not be cured at this time.

However, he can save it up and rule it together when he returns to the capital.

To be honest, if it wasn't for the wrong age, he would have directly proposed to marry Jia Lian's newborn granddaughter.

With such a father-in-law, why worry that his grandson will not succeed in the future.

It's a pity, the difference is seven or eight years old.

"Grandson knows that he will study hard with his uncle, and he will not disappoint his grandfather." When Jia Daishan and Lin Ruhai were talking today, Jia Lian was beside him.

It's not that Jia Lian is a person who doesn't know what's good and what's wrong. He also highly respects Tan Hualang, who passed the serious imperial examination.

You must know that when he was young, he often heard Mrs. Zhang talk about the Zhang family.

The Zhang family can study, the Zhang family can take the exam, the Zhang family is a Jinshi and enters the Imperial Academy...

Little Jia Lian has always had a hope in her heart, that is to be the pride of her mother.

Now that he has the opportunity to learn from a real well-educated person without becoming a nerd like Jia Zhu, Jia Lian is not happy.

Jia Daishan was very pleased to see that Jia Lian understood his painstaking efforts. "At the beginning of the founding of the country, those who followed Tai Zu to conquer the world were granted titles. At that time, most of the titles had real power. But as time goes by, the current noble families, including ours, have a look And how many have real power. The title is just a facade, to fool the ordinary people.

People like us, since they have more ancestral protection than ordinary people, should be more self-reliant.Your current wife is very good, never staring at the title. "Jia Daishan thought so too, otherwise he wouldn't have found Jia Min the boy from the Lin family who didn't have a title.

Jia Lian and Jia Xiaoniu nodded. Although they hadn't been in contact for a long time, they could tell that the Jin family really didn't take that title seriously.

Seeing the lovely faces of the two grandsons nodding at the same time, Jia Daishan's expression became a little more amiable, "Let's talk about the imperial examination again. Things of a kind flock together, and people are divided into groups. You come up from the lower level, classmate, subject, and classmate." Teacher, those are all your contacts when you become an official in the future..." But these people are more worthy of friendship than those old relatives from aristocratic families.

After talking on the phone, Jia Daishan glanced at the time, then turned his head to look at the two yawning children, shook his head and smiled, and quickly sent the people around them to take them back to bed.

For a while, the two saluted Jia Daishan, and then walked out holding hands.Looking at the backs of the younger siblings, Jia Daishan couldn't help sighing inwardly when he thought of his second son.

This time when he came to Yangzhou, no one from Jia Zheng's house offered to offer a backup gift to Jia Min.Jia Daishan was always dissatisfied.

I don't know it wasn't born by a mother, so it's so indifferent.If they knew about this in the future, wouldn't they be more alienated?

If one day he is gone, wouldn't the second son and one room have nothing to do with the daughter's family?

There is no harm if there is no comparison. The eldest family seems to be doing well now, but who can say for sure what will happen in the future.

Thinking of the eldest family and Jia Lian, Jia Daishan made up his mind to keep Jia Lian in Yangzhou.One is to connect with feelings, and the other is to hope that I can really learn something.

The Jia family's ancestral home is in Jinling, and Jinling is also quite close to Yangzhou.In a few years, it will be convenient for Lian'er to go directly to the end from Yangzhou.

After thinking about it for a while, Jia Daishan just fell asleep and didn't mention it.

On the other side, after Jia Lian sent Jia Xiaoniu to the east wing room, he entered the room and looked at Jia Xiaoniu's room carefully. The servant next to the little girl said good night to her sister and went back to the room opposite her.

The servants of the Lin family were all astonished.

When the Lin family arranged for the Jia family to live in this small courtyard, they subconsciously thought that the east wing was reserved for the men of the Jia family, but they didn't expect that the girl and nanny next to Jia Lian would go directly to the west wing, while Jia Xiaoniu's people would go to the west wing. It is natural to send things to the east wing.

Later, the servants of the Lin family discovered that the young master of the Jia family was accompanied by only two young servants besides a nanny and a big girl.

As for the four-year-old girl in Jia's family, there are four girls in one nanny.

At night, when they saw the grandparents and grandchildren's way of getting along with each other, the servants of the Lin family had to admit one thing, that is, in the Jia family, girls are more expensive than sons.

It turns out that the dowry that the wife used to say that the wife is more favored than the two brothers at home is true.

╯ (╯ ▽ ╰) ╭

On the second day, everyone in the Lin family got up early and was busy.

In the morning, Jia Min, who had been in seclusion for a month, finally walked out of the room with a rosy face to greet her father.

When the father and daughter met, they really had tears in their eyes.

Haven't seen each other for many years, I have too much to say, but today is not a good day to talk.So the father and daughter put the conversation aside in a tacit understanding, and got busy again.

When Jia Daishan came to Yangzhou, it was impossible to really avoid entertainment. The purpose of his trip was always to let people know that he attaches great importance to his daughter and son-in-law, so that those who have some ideas and are ready to make a move will show their tricks and don't provoke them. People who cannot be provoked.

Therefore, Jia Daishan must attend today's full moon banquet.As for Jia Lian, as the heir of the Rongguo Mansion and the person who will be the leader in the future, this occasion is also an experience.So Jia Daishan would take Jia Lian with him wherever he went today, and he would tell everyone in words that Jia Lian would stay in Yangzhou and study with Lin Ruhai.

As for Jia Xiaoniu, it is inconvenient to go to the outer house on such an occasion today.But in the inner house, she is not the protagonist today, and Jia Xiaoniu doesn't want to be in the limelight today, so in the morning, she hugs the quilt desperately and doesn't get up.

Jia Daishan loved her the most, seeing her nodding her nose like this, he didn't say much.I just said that I was tired all the way.

Jia Xiaoniu's appearance is really amazing.Since ancient times, there has been a saying that a beauty is a disaster. Jia Min still does not want any rumors about this niece to spread too early, but she also acquiesced to her father's statement.

But what Jia Min didn't expect was that Shui Yuan refused Lin Ruhai's invitation on the face of it, and ran to Jia Xiaoniu's room as soon as he turned around and pulled him out of the bed.

No matter how beautiful the appearance is, if the hair is disheveled, the eyes are sleepy, and the teeth and mouth are interrupted because of the return to the cage, it will no longer make people feel beautiful.

However, seeing Jia Xiaoniu so unhappy, Shui Yuan, who had entered the rebellious period early yesterday, felt happy for no reason.

While shaking the person up, he called the girl and mother-in-law to come and wait for him to get up.

After yelling people up, Shui Yuan was very considerate to get out of the inner room and walked to the outer room.And as he walked, he asked Jia Xiaoniu whether she would eat breakfast at the mansion or go out.

That look is very stylish.

"What about you?" Jia Xiaoniu asked Shui Yuan while reaching out to ask Nanny Tang to change her coat, "Have you eaten, where do you want to eat?"

Shui Yuan turned his head slightly. Although he knew that Jia Xiaoniu would not be able to see his current expression, he still made a look of contempt dutifully, "Do you act like everyone wakes up so late like you? My Highness has used it long ago. gone."

In fact, since he came out, Shui Yuan felt really comfortable to sleep in.When I was in the palace, I had to study in the study every day, and I had to get up early every day.

In the past, he was very thankful that he lived in the palace, unlike other children who went to study in the palace, who had to get up half an hour or more earlier than him, just to have more time on the way to and from the palace.

But now Shui Yuan discovered that Jia Xiaoniu had become accustomed to the days he envied now.

Shui Yuan felt that he should be jealous, but he didn't feel jealous at all.It turned out to be more happy for her.

I really saw a ghost.

Forget it, he found out, every time he sees this girl, he always becomes a stranger to himself.

Touching the money bag on his body, he would actually give up the free breakfast prepared by the Lin family, and was going to spend money to take the fat girl outside to spend money.

Alas, I can't be called a fat girl now.

This time I suffered, and the whole person lost a lot of weight.Seeing him felt very distressed, and he always wanted to make up for her lost meat.

Touching the money bag again, Shui Yuan felt that spending money on her would have the same benefits.

At least it made him very happy and satisfied.

After a while, Jia Xiaoniu packed up and came out of the inner room. "There is a treat for my uncle, so let's go out to eat. But my grandfather said, don't let the girl walk too much." It's better to go shopping by yourself.

When Shui Yuan heard the sound of uncle, he subconsciously resisted at first, but soon Shui Yuan was happy. "What's the matter? I can't hug you. But I can carry you."

His arm has no strength, but it doesn't mean he can't carry her on his back.Thinking of this, Shui Yuan's mood brightened up a bit.

Jia Xiaoniu didn't have a strong concept of imperial power and dignity in her heart, and Shui Yuan only made concessions to Jia Xiaoniu, so Jia Xiaoniu saw that Shui Yuan was carrying her and squatted down. Behind her, she unceremoniously stepped forward and lay down on Shui Yuan on the back. "You carry me for a while, and I walk for a while. Alternately, you are not tired, and I am not tired."

Shui Yuan still had some self-knowledge, and knew that Jia Xiaoniu's proposal was very reliable, so he readily agreed.

It's just that after the two walked out, they surprised the servants of the Lin family again.

The one who betrayed is... His Royal Highness, right?

What the servants of the Lin family thought, neither the servants of the Jia family nor the prince himself took it seriously.Anyway, from the capital to Yangzhou, the servants of Jia's family also looked sideways at the beginning to become numb at the end of the interaction between Shui Yuan and Jia Xiaoniu.

In short, it is just one sentence - as long as you are happy.

Calling a servant from the Lin family to lead the way, Shui Yuan went out directly from the back door of the Lin family to play with Jia Xiaoniu on his back.

After they left, the father and daughter Jia Min and Jia Daishan received the news.

Jia Min was still a little worried, so he quickly sent the stewards of the mansion to follow and protect him, so that His Highness could see a prosperous and peaceful Yangzhou City.Compared to Jia Min's uneasiness, Jia Daishan was not worried at all about the safety of his darling, er, and His Highness.

There are guards given by today, and long-term guards who can learn kung fu from Jia's mansion follow the two of them, so if something happens to the two of them, it is God's will, and it is inevitable.

So Jia Daishan still sat with Lin Ruhai at the head and exchanged greetings with the guests.

Zhen Yingjia from the Zhen family also came. Zhen Yingjia's mother was of the same generation as Jia Daishan, and the Zhen family was also considered to be an old relative to the Jia family, so she gave Jia Daishan a gift as a nephew.

After saluting, Zhen Yingjia greeted Jia Daishan with a smile, and asked him when he arrived in Yangzhou, and asked Jia Daishan to visit Zhen's house.

It seemed intimate, but it was a little more tentative.

Jia Daishan smiled very kindly, "In order to participate in our little grandson's full moon, I was in a hurry. I arrived at noon yesterday. I know you are busy, so I don't want to bother you too much. I think you will come today, so I am waiting here. "

"Where is Uncle Jia, if he knows you're here, sooner or later Ying Jia will come over to say hello to you." After a pause, Zhen Yingjia said respectfully, "Is Auntie coming? If so, Ying Jia can go too Goodbye."

Hearing the mention of Jia Mu, Jia Daishan's face remained calm, "We went to the capital together, but there was a small accident on the way. Your aunt was frightened, and she made a great wish with the Buddha, and the son returned to the capital just now. .”

"A small accident?" Zhen Yingjia looked worried, looked Jia Daishan up and down, and acted intimately, "What is the accident, is there something wrong with uncle?"

Lin Ruhai is the censor of Yanyan, and Zhen Yingjia has always been concerned about his every move.When Jia Daishan had an accident, Lin Ruhai got the news and asked people to inform the people of the county below about the incident overnight. Zhen Yingjia knew about it early in the morning, so it was just an extra question at this time.

Is there something wrong? It's none of your business?

Jia Daishan thought about it, then smiled and shook his head at Zhen Yingjia, "It's just that one of them accidentally fell into the river due to heavy wind and rain, and drifted for a few miles along the current. Women have long hair but short knowledge. No matter what it is, it is worthy of surprise."

"You can't say that. Uncle's daughter's body, any injury or hair loss is the loss of the country. Hey, speaking of this, when Ying Jia just entered the mansion, it seemed that a servant in the mansion said that a prince lived in the mansion?"

Jia Daishan glanced at Lin Ruhai when he heard the words, "Ying Jia is not an outsider, so I don't need to shy away from it. The servants in your house have bad mouths. They dare to tell people about this kind of thing at will. If it's not Ying Jia today, if it's someone else with ulterior motives People, what should I do?"

When Lin Ruhai heard what Jia Daishan said, he quickly stood up and admitted his mistake, with an excellent attitude.

Jia Daishan glanced at Zhen Yingjia, who had become stiff for a moment, from the corner of his eye, and nodded to Lin Ruhai, "Forget it, this kind of thing is also a matter for the women in the backyard. Tell your wife later, just say what I said, Tomorrow, release those servants who have broken mouths, and it will be regarded as accumulating blessings for my sister."

"Yes, my son-in-law has written it down."

"It's a joke for you." Jia Daishan said this with a smile to Zhen Yingjia, then took a sip of tea, and chatted with Zhen Yingjia about homework in a close and natural way.

Zhen Yingjia was a little annoyed by Jia Daishan's reaction, and Jia Daishan staggered the topic, so he could only put down the news about the water source and concentrate on chatting with Jia Daishan's family.

It's just that the more we talked, the more Zhen Yingjia realized that Jia Daishan was really slippery, as if he had said a lot, but none of it was useful.

This had to make Zhen Yingjia suspect that Lin Ruhai or Jia Daishan knew something.

It's just that they know what to do, those who follow will prosper, and those who go against will perish.Either we can achieve a great cause together, or don't blame him for not being fond of the Zhen family.

……

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

What is the source of water that Zhen Yingjia misses doing now?

He was sitting with Jia Xiaoniu at a noodle stall on the street, waiting for a bowl of Yangchun noodles.

"Girl, who the hell told you that you must eat Yangchun noodles when you come to Yangzhou?" Seeing the movement of the noodle cooker pouring soy sauce, Shui Yuan lost his appetite.

His Highness, he does not eat raw soy sauce.

Jia Xiaoniu was eating the side dishes brought up by the stall owner with her chopsticks, when she heard this, she glanced sideways at the source of water.

Isn't this person guilty of the old disease of iron cock?

The author has something to say: In fact, the book says that Daiyu was six years old when Jia Lian was in her twenties.
