Ruhai his sister

"Come on! Look this way, look this way! Call me Auntie! Brother Hong, call me Auntie!"

Lin Huan was shaking the rattle in his hand, watching the fat and white doll yelling and spitting out a milk bubble from time to time, his heart was full of joy.

This little baby is the eldest son of Jia Min and Lin Ruhai. Lin Ruhai named him Lin Hong, which means the sky is high and the birds fly.

"Brother Hong, brother Hong, call me aunt! Call me aunt, and aunt will give it to you!"

The four-month-old baby is at the time when his ears and eyesight are growing, and he also likes bright colors and thumping sounds the most. Looking at the bright red rattle in front of his eyes, the emerald beads on both sides are constantly beating on the leather surface On, the sound is crisp and pleasant.The little baby stretched out her chubby little hand to reach it, but just as she was about to reach it, the rattle was lifted up a little more.After doing this several times, the little baby seemed a little angry, and burst into tears.

Jia Minben and Wei Zi were making children's clothes at the side. Hearing the sound of crying, he hurriedly turned his head, hugged Brother Hong and coaxed him softly.Lin Huan looked down at the rattle in his hand and touched his nose embarrassingly, "Sister-in-law! I didn't mean it."

Jia Min chuckled, "My younger sister is too impatient. Brother Hong is not yet five months old. He can be called aunt."

Lin Huan stuck out his tongue, and walked up to Jia Min, "Sister-in-law, let me hug brother Hong! I've been exhausted learning the rules every day for five months. Now it's so easy for the two nuns Nodded and went back to the palace to return to my command, it's rare to be free. My sister-in-law asked Brother Hong to get close to me!"

Jia Min smiled and carefully sent Brother Hong to Lin Huan's arms.Brother Hong stopped crying.It's just that there were still tears in Yuanyuan's big eyes, and she looked at Lin Huan innocently and aggrievedly, and Lin Huan giggled happily.

Jia Min adjusted Li Hong's swaddling clothes, looked at Lin Huan, and said, "You have really worked hard these past few months. It's just that those two nuns belong to the Queen Mother after all, and they have done something. We can only suffer."

Lin Huan raised her head, "I know." The two nuns didn't just come to teach her the rules, they also wanted to investigate.Although the imperial decree is issued, the date of marriage is not yet fixed.What happened here is anyone's guess.

Although King Zhongshun was crowned king, he was not as weak as the crown, and still lived in the palace.But now that they are married, the emperor will naturally give him another mansion.The site selection and construction of the mansion will take a lot of effort.Moreover, the emperor also gave several side concubines and concubines to the other princes, and the concubines paid it back, but the side concubines also had to be organized by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.There were one happy event after another in the capital, and the House of Internal Affairs was really overwhelmed.And because King Zhongshun's mansion hadn't been completed, the marriage was naturally put at the end.

Thinking of this, Jia Min said again: "That's fine too. You can also stay at home and then go through the door."

Just as he was talking, another girl came to report that Aunt Gu and Miss Biao were here.The two rushed out to greet them.Aunt Gu and Jia Min were talking and teasing Brother Hong.Zhang Han pulled Lin Huan to the side room, and said: "I heard that you have been under the strict control of the nuns for a while, and I am worried but dare not come to see you, for fear of hindering your business."

"Where there is anything, you can come whenever you want."

Zhang Han snorted, "Is it really all right? You just don't learn the rules, so you don't need to embroider the wedding dress? Who said that you need to embroider a unique wedding dress, so that everyone in the capital will remember this scene wedding?"

Lin Huan blushed, and then smiled again: "Are you still talking about me? Don't you need to embroider? I heard that my aunt showed you a few families a while ago, and now it's settled?"

Zhang Han glared at Lin Huan, "Mother decides to decide on the youngest son of Duke Li."

"Young son is good. You don't need to set up a family. And Li Guogong's old son, Li Guogong personally raised him. Although he was favored, he didn't spoil him, and he didn't develop any bad temper. I heard my brother once said, The most gentle temperament will surely be able to sing in harmony with you."

"That's what mother said."

Zhang Han's temperament is straightforward, and he never wants to use his mind to play tricks.Although she learned how to be a housekeeper from Aunt Gu, she only lacked iron fists.The eldest son and the only son have to bear a lot of pressure and responsibilities when they marry. Zhang Han is afraid that he will not be able to support it for a while.As for the youngest son, his parents dote on him and his elder brother protects him, which saves a lot of trouble.Since the time of the first emperor, the Duke of Li has gradually withdrew from the imperial court, and only became wealthy and idlers, so as to avoid being burdened by the political situation.

As for her biological daughter, Aunt Gu naturally considered everything that could be considered, not seeking the best, but only seeking the most suitable.

Lin Huan was a little sad for a moment, if...if her mother was still there, could she be like Zhang Han, just wait with peace of mind.You don't have to figure everything out yourself.

Zhang Han turned his head to look inside, and saw Aunt Gu and Jia Min teasing Brother Hong, and said to Lin Huan, "I have something to ask you."

Lin Huan couldn't help being surprised, "You and I still say that we can't do it? You just say, as long as I can do it, how can I refuse."

Zhang Han frowned and said, "Did you know that my elder brother has been released and will leave for Sichuan in a few days?"

"I heard what my brother said. Are you worried about the poverty in Sichuan and Shu, and that your cousin will not be able to bear it? Actually, that's fine. Although there are some bandits and barbarians there, bandits are not so bold, so don't dare Go to the magistrate's yamen mansion. They are barbarians. Although there are occasional disputes and noises, our Great Zhou Dynasty is not a vegetarian. The emperor has been on guard. With the Sichuan general army here, what are you worried about? They say that a prosperous and stable place is good, But I can't make any political achievements. My cousin went to Sichuan. If he can make some achievements, he can be promoted. My uncle must also be thinking about this level, which will be more beneficial to his cousin's career, so he planned to be the magistrate over there. job."

Zhang Han nodded, "I know this. But..."

Lin Huan was even more surprised: "Is there something else that can't be done?"

"You don't know. It was great when this happened. My sister-in-law also packed her things and prepared to go to the post with my brother. But a few days ago, my sister-in-law found out that she was pregnant. My mother refused to say anything. I'm afraid that the journey will affect the children. However, my brother has been away for several years, so my sister-in-law can't sit still. I saw that my sister-in-law didn't say anything on the face, but she was very anxious in her heart, and I didn't dare to refute my mother. the meaning of."

Lin Huan was also a little embarrassed, "This is your family's business, I...how can I intervene. Besides, there is no reason for us juniors to intervene in these matters."

Zhang Han sighed, "There is no right or wrong in this matter. The mother also has good intentions, and she is afraid that the sister-in-law will not be able to bear it. But the sister-in-law's concerns are not wrong. You can't let a girl who is not good enough to serve Brother's reasoning. I also know that I shouldn't care about this matter. Only you know that I have always been on good terms with my sister-in-law. Seeing her anxious these two days, I...I..."

Lin Huan frowned, "Did you go to persuade your aunt?"

Zhang Han waved his hands again and again, "No! How dare I say it. It's because I don't know what to do, so I came to you for advice."

Lin Huan breathed a sigh of relief, shook Zhang Han's hand and sat aside, and said with a smile, "Don't bother with this matter. My aunt will have her own opinion."

Zhang Han still looked worried.Lin Huanjie said: "Think about it, Sichuan is no better than other places. The relationship between my cousin and Shangfeng's subordinates is inevitable. If my cousin doesn't go there, there will be no helper behind my cousin. , Is it impossible for a concubine who is not on the stage to come forward? Wouldn't it make people in the Great Zhou Dynasty laugh at me? I'm afraid your Zhang family will also make people criticize and poke the spine. It is because of this layer For the sake of my cousin's future, my aunt will never keep my cousin in Beijing.

And in the past two years, the Holy Majesty was on the guard against a dispute or war with the barbarians that might happen someday.Taking precautions, the Ministry of Industry was ordered to build roads in Sichuan and Shu early on.This time, although it is far away from Beijing, the journey is smooth, and my cousin has more time to take office.It would not be too hard to find a safe driver and take care of him along the way. "

Zhang Han is just pure-minded and doesn't think about other things normally, but he is not stupid. When Lin Huan said this, he immediately understood, "You mean, mother didn't mean to keep sister-in-law behind? Then why did mother ..."

Lin Huan smiled and didn't answer clearly, just said: "You just want to think about why you came to me today?"

Zhang Han slapped his head and realized immediately.Since my sister-in-law married, I respect my parents-in-law first, please her sister-in-law, win over my husband, and treat my servants kindly and generously.There is no one in the house who does not say good things about sister-in-law.Even she and her father often read it.

But in just two years, my husband, daughter, and son were all drawn in.How can mother feel comfortable.This trick is just a warning to my sister-in-law, and it is also a warning.If she has crooked thoughts, as a mother-in-law, she can always be cured.

Zhang Han pouted, feeling quite annoyed, almost being used as a weapon.Thinking of the relationship between the sister-in-law and her sister-in-law on weekdays, she really likes this sister-in-law, but now she is being used by others, and she feels overwhelmed for a while.

Lin Huan smiled and said: "You don't have to do this either. As you said before, it's normal for a cousin to have some scruples of her own. If the sister-in-law really can't follow, my cousin must have someone who serves me, so I have to take my aunt and girl over there Yes. For several years. My cousin can’t meet my cousin, but my sister-in-law gets along with each other every day, and my sister-in-law doesn’t know the gender of this child. What if she conceived and gave birth to the eldest son first?"

Although this is the truth, Zhang Han also knows it, but he still feels a little suffocated and a little melancholy in his heart. He doesn't know if he will be like this after he gets married, and he feels uneasy.

Brother Hong fell asleep, and Jia Min sent Aunt Gu out.Aunt Gu looked at the expressions of Lin Huan and Zhang Han. She didn't know her daughter well, and she didn't care about her own daughter. She just pulled Lin Huan and said, "Han'er should talk to you more."

Lin Huan understood it, and said with a smile: "The Lin family is only my girl's family. I don't have any direct sisters, but my aunt is my own aunt. My cousin and I couldn't be more close. Naturally, we need to move around more between sisters. Get along with each other. Only when the time comes, cousin don't think I'm too talkative!"

Zhang Han glared and spat, his face full of dissatisfaction.Aunt Gu laughed happily.

Aunt Gu and Zhang Han were sent off.Lin Huan lay on the couch and flipped through the regional annals of the Great Zhou Dynasty, looked back at Sichuan and Shu, and then looked at Fujian.

I heard that King Zhongshun's lovebird was bought and presented by a servant who went to Fujian to do business from a Hu merchant who was walking there.The government of the country has ignored the government for many years.But if she remembers correctly, the younger sister of Li Guogong's wife is married to Zhang Mao, the current Fujian general.

There are many Japanese pirates and bandits on the sea in Linhai, Fujian. It was all thanks to Zhang Mao who fought a few big battles before the pirates' momentum was severely thwarted. Although there were still some small moves in the past two years, they have subsided a lot compared to the past .Zhang Mao contributed a lot here.

The people living in Sichuan and Shu were complex, mostly barbarians.

Back then when the King of Wei rebelled, the barbarians took advantage of the internal turmoil in the court to raise troops. Although they were suppressed later and had no choice but to submit, no one knew that it was only a surrender on the surface, but they were very angry in their hearts.

The imperial court also knew well that war was inevitable, but it was only a matter of time.The barbarians are waiting for the opportunity, and so is the imperial court.The emperor has made sufficient preparations, otherwise he would not have been sending Sichuan and Shu more military salaries for training.The road was built the year before last, but it was just so that one day, when a war broke out, military resources could reach the battlefield smoothly and quickly.

Although the land of Sichuan and Shu looks dangerous, wealth and honor can be found in danger.War is the easiest way to benefit yourself.

Lin Huan's fingers slid across the regional chronicles, across Sichuan and Shu, and then across Fujian, back and forth several times.

How could there be such a coincidence.Not long after she pointed out the marriage, Zhang Han betrothed the youngest son of Duke Li's family.And Zhang Yun followed and was appointed to serve as the magistrate in Sichuan and Shu.

Lin Huan thought of the parrot owned by King Zhongshun again.It turned out that it was not that simple for him to marry her.Lin Huan always knew that King Zhongshun was scheming.Marrying her was not only because she was smart, but also because of the help of the Lin family and the Gu family's two scholars, and even her uncle who was the servant of the official department.The Ministry of Officials is in charge of the performance appraisal and appointment of officials. Although my uncle is only a servant now, the minister is old, and he has only been in office for two years.At that time, my uncle will naturally be the best candidate for Shangshu.

But Lin Huan never expected that Zhongshun Wang Yuan's insight even included Zhang Yun, Zhang Han, and the Zhang family's in-law relationship.

Did he already know about these things, or did he hear some rumors, or did he contribute to the flames here?
