One of the Red Buildings: Three Thousand Miles

Back at Shi's house, Xuanxuan persuaded Daiyu for a while to comfort her, and Daiyu fell asleep quietly.

Xuanxuan went out quietly and went to Mrs. Shi's room.When Mrs. Shi was chatting with Nanny Wang, when she saw Xuanxuan coming, she smiled and asked how the game was going today.Xuanxuan briefly talked about the situation, and then went to Mrs. Shi's side, and talked about Yumin's dissatisfaction and Daiyu's worry.

Mrs. Shi pondered for a while, and said, "This matter is not up to anyone. I can only say that as long as I am alive, I will be able to protect Yu'er well. As for her stepmother, I can only choose more." After a lot of effort, they didn't live this life by themselves? I can do it and I will do it naturally, and the rest is life."

Xuanxuan blinked and noticed that Mrs. Shi was dissatisfied at the slightest bit, and she was anxious, fearing that she would cause a rift between Mrs. Shi and Daiyu because of her talkativeness, so she hurriedly explained, "Mother, I don't mean that, I just think Yu'er is very pitiful." ..."

Mrs. Shi reached out her hand to stop Xuan Xuan's words, and said with a smile, "I will still be angry with the child? Yu'er is because her mother left early and thought too much. She is my own niece, and I treat her like you. I just now And talk to Wang Momo about which girl is suitable, or you can follow suit?"

Xuanxuan was stunned, "So fast! Where did Mom find a girl of the right age?" In this day and age, Lin Ruhai is at that age. It is very difficult to find an unmarried girl of the right age. Old girls always have a bad reputation or have flaws. , Anyone who can get married will not be wasted to more than [-].

Mrs. Shi was amused by Xuanxuan's words, and supported herself, "Who said it was the right age? At your uncle's age, isn't the right age an old lady?"

Xuanxuan is embarrassed, she can't turn her head!

Mother Wang smiled and introduced, "That's how it is. Wasn't there a general election a year ago? Many girls either stood out or left a sign to stay in the next term. There are other girls among them. Madam is guessing and choosing carefully to see what can be learned from them." Set it up for uncle."

Nanny Wang spoke vaguely, but in fact it was like this.Mrs. Wan sent a letter a while ago, saying that the old lady met several girls during the New Year's Eve, and she thought they were pretty good, so she decided to choose one of them for Lin Ruhai, and wanted to see what Mrs. Shi meant first.After Mrs. Shi got the letter, she thought, instead of choosing a girl from an ordinary family, she could find a good girl who was not selected.Just after the general election, there are quite a few girls who failed the election. Some of them have fathers with high official positions but poor family backgrounds, or they don’t look very upright. Such girls are just right for Lin Ruhai now, at least in Mrs. Shi’s eyes. of.

In addition, Lin Ruhai is currently working in the clan's mansion, and the first-hand information of the beautiful women can be obtained. If he can really choose a successor for Lin Ruhai from here, at least it will be absolutely decent.

After a few more days, Mrs. Shi really started to look at the girl, and found a lot of rosters in her hand, all of which were unmarried girls from various ethnic groups in the capital.Mrs. Shi originally wanted Lin Ruhai to take a look first, choose a scope, and then she would accept the next step of work, but Lin Ruhai waved her hand and shied away. In his opinion, it is the same to marry anyone, and no one can compare to the late Jia Min.

Mrs. Shi also had a long talk with Daiyu. Xuanxuan didn't know the specific content, but it was probably just words of persuasion. In fact, Mrs. Shi felt that it was not easy for Mrs. Shi to do these things. Whose aunt would ask such a thing?It's just that Daiyu agreed on her face, but when no one was around, the little girl looked very lonely looking outside.For this reason, when Jia's family came to invite Daiyu Xuanxuan to play at Jia's house, Xuanxuan rushed to Mrs. Shi and agreed.

"What to do at their house in a decent manner, so as not to attract attention." Daiyu was dissatisfied.

Xuanxuan tried to persuade her, "Let's just relax. We can't go there once a year or so, Mr. Zongling, and we rarely have the opportunity to go out on weekdays. It's either studying or going to class. Aren't you bored? I know you don't like him family, but in the end it is your grandfather's family, maybe there are still a few little sisters in their family."

Daiyu still didn't appreciate it, she was extremely stubborn, "Didn't my aunt always disagree, why did she agree!" The little girl was sensitive and thought it was a sign of Mrs. Shi's dissatisfaction with her.

Xuanxuan didn't expect this level, she thought she was offending Daiyu, and her anxiety was more than how to speak.Brother Qing still couldn't stand it anymore, and came in and said, "Miss Biao's words hurt my girl's heart a bit. In fact, Madam still doesn't want to let the two girls go. It was my girl who thought that Miss Biao was in a bad mood recently, so she went out for a walk. Maybe it will be better, so I begged my wife. Just because of this matter, our girl and my wife had a bad fight."

Xuanxuan hurriedly shook her hands, "Stop talking, what is there, my sisters, why don't you care about it? Brother Qing, hurry down." Brother Qing put down the tea set in his hand, hesitant to speak, and finally Seeing Xuanxuan getting angry, she held back and went out.

Daiyu felt guilty when she heard this, she pursed her lips and twisted the handkerchief in her hand, this is Daiyu's unique gesture after making a mistake.Xuanxuan smiled when she saw it, poured a glass of water for Daiyu, and put it in front of her, "How long have we been together as sisters? Do you think I will really be angry with you because of that?" Daiyu raised her head, her eyes were red, He whispered, "I'm sorry, Xuanxuan."

Xuanxuan was even happier, "Okay, it doesn't matter if you have a little temper with me, you won't be allowed to do this in the future. You always like to think too much, you have a delicate heart, and if you insist on giving birth to seven orifices, you don't even think about it." Thinking about the good, but actually thinking about something bad, if you use this kind of thinking, you might as well think about it the other way around."

Daiyu has a deep understanding.

In the end, he still went on a trip to Jia's house, but it didn't take long, he arrived almost noon, and after sitting for a while in the afternoon, he was picked up by Mrs. Shi.Mrs. Shi didn't dare to let Daiyu pass by, Daiyu was cautious at first, and if she heard some unreasonable words, the little girl would keep thinking about things in her heart, and Mrs. Shi didn't want to make any trouble at this juncture.

It's just that she didn't expect that after Daiyu Xuanxuan came back from Jia's house, Daiyu took the initiative to ask Lin Ruhai to choose a successor, and also persuaded Lin Ruhai to pay more attention to this matter, so that his wife could not always be enthusiastic about it.Mrs. Shi was overjoyed and felt that Daiyu was sensible, but Lin Ruhai felt sad, thinking that her daughter had been wronged, so Tete called Daiyu to her when she was resting, and had a heart-to-heart talk with Daiyu.

"Father, what exactly do you want to say?" Daiyu, who was called by her father to chat early in the morning, rubbed her eyes in trouble. Although she was very happy to have more exchanges with her father, this also had to talk about practical issues. In fact, if it's okay to talk nonsense, she is more inclined to spend this time on study.Nanny Chang just said that she has almost taught the simple rules. In the next six months, she will focus on talking about psychological matters. After everything is taught, she should return to Wanjia. Come to an end.

Lin Ruhai hesitated for a while, but still didn't dare to ask directly, "Yu'er, are you used to living in your aunt's house? But if someone shows you or something, don't hold back if you do, tell daddy, daddy will vent your anger on you."

Daiyu is so smart, she understood Lin Ruhai's worry when she rolled her eyes, she was very happy in her heart, and she also showed a smile on her face, "I said, Daddy, do you want to ask Yu'er if aunt did something, Yu'er recently Will it change so much? It’s no longer like the old love to make Xiao Xing’er, but also take the initiative to make arrangements for you?”

After being told by Daiyu, Lin Ruhai was a little at a loss. Facing a girl of Daiyu's age, Lin Ruhai really didn't have much experience.

Daiyu laughed, stepped forward and threw herself into Lin Ruhai's arms, buried her head deeply, and said, "Daddy, my daughter has grown up, and my aunt cares so much for your own good. It is also because of my father that my aunt is very happy." Teach Yu'er carefully. Yu'er didn't think so before, but now Yu'er feels more and more that her aunt is really good at teaching, don't you think Yu'er is becoming more and more like a lady?"

Lin Ruhai hugged Daiyu, full of emotions, her little baby who was always thinking about things and always thinking about it had grown up and became a big girl, knowing how to be considerate and caring!

"Also!" Daiyu raised her head and said fiercely to Lin Ruhai, "Daddy, how can you doubt Auntie? Do you know that Auntie is always thinking about your affairs every day, and girls in the capital are almost being hunted down by Auntie?" After touching it all over, you still don’t understand and are still suspicious, that’s right!”

Lin Ruhai smiled lightly, "Yes, Daddy was wrong, how about this, wait for Daddy to go to an outside restaurant to buy some good food, and we will have lunch at your aunt's place at noon, it would be nice if Daddy personally apologizes."

Daiyu thought for a while, then shook her head, "No, it's good that daddy knows he's wrong. My aunt doesn't know, she's in a good mood. If daddy makes amends, auntie will be unhappy. Let's eat together and make amends. Hmm , Also, buy more food from restaurants outside, Xuanxuan likes to eat."

Lin Ruhai responded with a smile.

Sure enough, during lunch, Lin Ruhai ordered someone to go to Taibaiju, the best restaurant in Beijing, to order food and deliver it to Shifu. Mrs. Shi didn't know why, but she was very happy to have dinner with Lin Ruhai.After eating, Mrs. Shi left Lin Ruhai behind, and took out a few pieces of paper with several names on them. Just by looking at the names, she knew that they belonged to girls. The meaning was obvious, and she wanted Lin Ruhai to see it.

Lin Ruhai didn't bow his head, but picked up his teacup and smiled, "Sister, you can know people just by their names."

Mrs. Shi said angrily, "Look at all the nonsense. I hope that you will be able to make up your mind in the first half of the year. I will marry you later. If you don't talk about it, you will have to wait until next year. Don't stare at me. Our Lin family has no descendant yet. This is unfilial for three years. You have been working for the emperor for so many years. You can't be vague about this important matter of the Lin family's succession. In the past, I was not with you, and everything was up to you. Now, you Don't even think about it."

The matter of Lin Ruhai is hard to say, easy to say, and it is indeed not easy, because his wife Jia Min, if the other side of the Jia family hears the news, she will definitely be willing to find a girl from her own house and send it to her, so that the in-laws of the Lin and Jia families can continue to get married. up.Besides, Lin Ruhai is still welcomed by the emperor, and he will be called into the palace for talks every now and then. Even if the Jia family is not envious of such an upstart, as long as word spreads, I believe there will be many people who hope to form this marriage.For this reason, Mrs. Shi has put in a lot of effort, and she has to look at it secretly, and hope to be decent in the future, it is really difficult for Mrs. Shi.

Lin Ruhai was speechless, complained again and again, and repeatedly stated that Mrs. Shi would take over all matters, so she should honestly work for the officials.
