[Red Mansions] Male wife

The meaning of Lin Ruhai's words is very obvious. After careful consideration, he officially agreed to Pei Jin's support for the sixth prince.The reason why Lin Ruhai agreed was not because he believed in the strength of the sixth prince, but because he had seen the strength of the people around him, such as Pei Jin.

Daiyu originally wanted to see Brother Huan off with her father, but because of her identity as a woman, she had to stay at home and wait for news.When Lin Ruhai came over, Daiyu hurried forward to ask Jia Xiuyun if he could leave safely.

"Silly girl, they will leave safely and smoothly." Lin Ruhai said with a smile.

"Who knows, I'm worried that those assassins will make trouble again." Daiyu frowned, and her soft face was full of worry. "Father, Brother Huan is a good man, and there will be good rewards."

"It's natural." Lin Ruhai looked at her daughter with a smile, and asked her to sit down with her.Daiyu was a little weak in the first few days when she came back, and he was sick again, and he had to socialize later, so Lin Ruhai didn't have much chance to talk to Daiyu.Now that he has recovered by himself, and Daiyu is in good health, Lin Ruhai thinks it's time to ask her daughter what she thinks.

Lin Ruhai was also afraid of offending her daughter, so she first politely asked Daiyu how her life in the Rong Mansion was going and how she was doing.Daiyu couldn't avoid her father's worries, so she reported good news but not bad ones, and praised Rong Mansion all over.

Lin Ruhai had expected her daughter to answer like this, and joked: "Since it's so good, how about I send a boat to take you back?"

Daiyu shook her head, and looked up at Lin Ruhai aggrieved.

"how?"

"It's comfortable to live at my grandmother's house, and it's not convenient to live at home. Besides, my daughter is reluctant to part with her father." Daiyu said, her eyes were a little wet, she turned her head to the side for a while, and didn't want her father to see her cry.

"Stupid boy." Lin Ruhai sighed, stood up and patted Daiyu on the head.After he wandered around the center of the ground twice with his hands behind his back, Lin Ruhai suddenly turned around and asked Daiyu with a smile, "How are you getting along with the sisters in Rongguo Mansion?"

Daiyu smiled and explained the respective advantages of the Sanchun sisters one by one, and also said a few words about Baoyu by the way.

Lin Ruhai naturally put all her attention on Baoyu, and continued to ask Daiyu: "What does he usually like to do, what books does he like to read?"

"Him?" Daiyu sneered twice when she thought of Baoyu. "It's just that Bai has a good skin. He doesn't like reading the most in his life. If he reads, he only likes to read some wild history miscellaneous notes. Except for going to school every day, he stays with the old lady and plays with us."

Lin Ruhai stroked his beard and said "oh" meaningfully.Nodding symbolically, he has other considerations in his heart.After comforting Daiyu to rest, he lifted his foot out of the mansion, sat in a sedan chair and went straight to the place where his colleague, the magistrate of Yangzhou, was going.

Fang Zhi was free, sitting in the hall to test the knowledge of the school's youngest son.Hearing that Lin Ruhai was coming, he hurriedly invited him into the house to take a seat.

"Brother Lin, little brother Rong is too talkative, you are too skinny, why don't you try martial arts to strengthen your body." Fang Zhi then told Lin Ruhai about his youngest son, Fang Luzhou. After learning some martial arts from the master, all the minor illnesses and misfortunes on my body disappeared.

"It's a lot of age, how can I learn martial arts like a child." Lin Ruhai shook his head and sighed.

"Hey, we are so old at this age that we can't afford it. We don't learn strong skills, but we have soft skills. Otherwise, I wouldn't mention this to you. Don't you have a ready-made master?" Fang Zhijian Lin Ruhai was puzzled, and explained, "Pei family, who doesn't know that the ancestor of our Yangzhou Pei family was the founding general, and all the younger generations are also very skilled."

When Lin Ruhai heard this mention, he remembered that the night when the Lin family had an assassination incident, he saw Pei Jin's skills with his own eyes, and it was indeed very powerful.Lin Ruhai then remembered what Jia Xiuyun had said, that he was about the same age as the elder of the Pei family, but his body was quite different.Sure enough, martial arts practitioners are in good health, Lin Ruhai nodded in agreement, thinking that Fang Zhi's suggestion made sense, so he asked a martial arts master to go some other day.

"What do you want me for?" Fang Zhi asked.

"Hey, I was almost taken away by you. I will discuss serious matters with you today. I left early, and I am the only one in the family. I don't care about the rules and customs. I will come to you with my face." Lin Ruhai then said politely, "Let's talk about it first, don't affect our relationship if things go well. I'm here to ask if your youngest son is engaged."

When Fang Zhi heard this, his eyes lit up immediately, and he looked at Lin Ruhai with surprise: "You mean Lu Zhou and your daughter—" Seeing Lin Ruhai nodding, Fang Zhi was so happy that he slapped his thigh, and shouted, "I wish for it! If your Lin Tanhua's daughter can marry into our Fang family, I'll ask the whole family to make offerings to her carefully."

"Hahaha, I'm afraid Brother Fang can't make the decision, and I have to discuss it with your old lady." Lin Ruhai laughed.

Fang Zhi nodded and patted his chest to ensure that his mother was absolutely fine.Lin Ruhai also felt that the marriage was probably about the same, so he left for the time being and waited for his good news at home.

In the evening, when Daiyu went to Lin Ruhai's room to say hello, seeing her father in a good mood, she casually asked him what was going on.

Lin Ruhai thought that Daiyu had been in Rong Mansion for a long time, so she must have developed feelings for the sisters and brothers there. He didn't know how Daiyu got along with Baoyu.But he did see Jiamu's plan. She deliberately let Daiyu play with Baoyu often, so she must have other intentions.It is understandable to say that Jia's mother intends to kiss her.What is annoying is what Mother Jia did later, she actually left the Xue family to live, and the girls from the cousins' families on both sides. A blind man could see what the old lady was up to.

Lin Ruhai hates himself because of the loss of his wife all these years, he always numbs himself with government affairs and doesn't care about family affairs, so that he neglects to care about his only daughter who lives in the capital. He is really a father in vain.No matter how good others treat their daughter on the surface, they are not as sincere as his biological father.

Lin Ruhai took the initiative to arrange a marriage for Daiyu. Based on his many years of experience in knowing people in the officialdom, Fang Luzhou must be a promising child.His father and himself are colleagues, and they have known each other for many years, so they are very reliable.What's more, his official position is the largest in Yangzhou, and his daughter's marriage to the Fang family is considered a marriage, and her status is not ordinary.If Daiyu is lucky enough to have two sons in the future, he can also adopt a grandson.

Lin Ruhai suddenly felt that the road ahead was bright, and the Lin family's incense could not be guaranteed, and there was hope for a successor.The more I think about the festive things, the happier I am, and I am naturally happy from ear to ear.

Lin Ruhai asked Daiyu with a smile: "Are you willing to let the sisters in the capital get married in Yangzhou?"

Daiyu blushed when she heard that she was married, and bowed her head not knowing what to say.

"What do you think of Fang Luzhou? Uh, he's the one who blocked your dog in Fangfu that day." Lin Ruhai then added.

The father's meaning couldn't be more obvious, and Daiyu certainly understood.She blushed and turned away to look at her father in embarrassment.When Lin Ruhai saw Daiyu in such a state, she felt confident.The daughter didn't say she didn't object, she just agreed.

"Good boy, you have good eyesight. Men, if you don't have the ability to protect women, don't marry a wife. Like your second brother Bao, who dares not read any bastard books, what can he do? Who can expect him to support his family in the future? ?" Lin Ruhai took a sip of Baoyu, feeling better, and asked Daiyu to rest earlier.He went out and had just returned to the house when he heard the boy report that the Fang family had sent someone to inform him of the good news.Lin Ruhai laughed, he probably won't be able to sleep tonight because of his happiness.

Thirteen days later, the ship arrived in the capital.After Jia Xiuyun followed Pei Jin to visit the general's wife, Mrs. Wu, he was sent back to the mansion by Pei Jin.

"See you tomorrow!" Pei Jin smiled and waved at Jia Xiuyun before he asked someone to drive back.

Jia Xiuyun brought the little magpie and six servants from the Pei family who delivered the goods into the Rongguo Mansion through the west corner gate.As soon as the servants of the Rong Mansion saw him coming back, they rushed to inform Jiamu, Mrs. Wang and others.

Jia Xiuyun came in to greet Jia Mu and everyone, and then was repeatedly bombarded and asked, "Where's Daiyu?"

Mother Jia had a bad premonition in her heart, and her face was not very good-looking, gloomy.After Jia Xiuyun presented Lin Ruhai's handwritten letter, Jia's mother's face turned completely dark.In his heart, Lin Ruhai spoke sincerely, saying bluntly that he wanted to keep Daiyu by his side to discuss lifelong affairs, and he probably would not let Daiyu come to Beijing in the future.After reading the letter, Jia's mother could only keep turning the four words "big event in life" in her mind.Shouldn't Daiyu's grandma make decisions about Daiyu's life? Her daughter is dead, and the Lin family has no mistress, so it is reasonable for her to decide.

Mrs. Wang secretly looked at Jia Mu's unhappy face, and laughed inwardly.The old lady also has a day of miscalculation!Mrs. Wang couldn't wait any longer, she really wanted to bring this news to Lixiangyuan as soon as possible, so that her sister would be happy when she heard it earlier.

Mother Jia had no choice but to regret.Since Daiyu's father kept her, her grandmother could do nothing to stop her.Mother Jia shifted her gaze to Jia Xiuyun in front of her, and sighed, feeling a little bit blaming him.If he hadn't been so troublesome to let Daiyu go back, he wouldn't be where he is today.

Without waiting for Mother Jia to open her mouth, Jia Xiuyun asked the boy to carry out the gift box.All the jade vases and plates were laid out, and Jia Xiuyun pointed to the biggest one and said to the old lady, "It's for you."

Mother Jia accepted it with a smile, let alone saying anything.The grandson respects her, so it's not good for her to blame him for no reason.Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Xing also accepted the gifts, and everyone praised Jia Xiuyun for his filial piety.

Mrs. Wang looked at the jade plate in Jin Chuan's hand, and asked with a smile where Jia Xiuyun got the money to buy so many things.These jade carvings are not to say that they are expensive, but they can add up to a lot of silver.

"My son doesn't have any money, he is from the Pei family." As soon as Jia Xiu finished speaking, he heard a gust of wind behind him, and he subconsciously dodged to the side.A figure rushed over from his original position, and fell to the ground with a thud.Jia Xiuyun took a closer look, isn't this the richly dressed son Ge Baoyu?

Baoyu yelled twice, and was helped up by the crowd. With red eyes, he stared fiercely at Jia Xiuyun, and rushed towards him again.
