One of the Red Buildings: Three Thousand Miles

Lin Ruhai led Mr. Shi to the study for a meeting, while Hou Xuan took Mrs. Shi Xuanxuan Dexie to the inner house.

After Lin Ruhai and Master Shi arrived at the study, the book boy served tea and closed the door.Lin Ruhai stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, "Brother-in-law, brother Huayan, you have wronged my sister all these years."

Shi adults, Ming Shihua, Biaozi Huayan.The Shi family and the Lin family have been friends for generations, and Lin Ruhai and Shi Huayan have also grown up together since they were young.Shi Huayan was older and quite talented, while Lin Ruhai was younger but even better.Later, the two families discussed marriage, and Lin Ruhai's elder sister, Lin Wenru, was appointed by Lin's father and Lin's mother to Shi Huayan.

Lin Ruhai was so angry that he had nowhere to vent his anger. After all, Shi Huayan was his brother-in-law, and he had grown up with him since he was a child. Moreover, the most important thing was that Lin Wenru was Shi Huayan's wife. Even if he lived for Lin Wenru Fortunately, Lin Ruhai could only swallow his anger and deal with it.

Shi Huayan sighed, "Ruhai, I also have my own difficulties. It's not like you don't know what kind of temper your sister is. That girl Xuanxuan also followed her, full of arrogance in her bones, and she couldn't pull back even ten bulls. The life of husband and wife is not as smooth as when they were young."

Lin Ruhai was slightly stunned, only to hear Shi Huayan continue to say, "Why don't I hope that your sister can be like her siblings, be more jealous and less pregnant. Forget it, stop mentioning this, let's talk about the current situation in Beijing. situation."

Lin Ruhai's expression tightened, "Beijing is not peaceful, and the Sacred Heart is unpredictable. We can only do our duty faithfully and do our part..."

"Then the Holy Majesty has called me back to Beijing now, why? I still know my abilities. Even in the border areas, there are many people who are better than me. How did you find me?" Shi Huayan was timid, afraid of this Would be a bad trap.

Lin Ruhai laughed when he heard this, "This brother-in-law doesn't need to be too suspicious. Brother-in-law's promotion is entrusted to him by my younger brother. I didn't explain it to my brother-in-law beforehand, because I was afraid that my brother-in-law would not come back."

Shi Huayan was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud.

Besides, Xuanxuan followed Mrs. Shi into the inner house not long after, and saw a middle-aged woman slowly walking towards her.A woman's typical oval face, small chin, a fly in the ointment, a thin mouth, unstoppable weakness between the eyebrows and eyes, and a thin body. She was supported by two nuns and walked slowly.But even so, it's hard to hide his demeanor, and he has a bit of sickly beauty.

Mrs. Shi hurried over to support the woman, and said to her reproachfully, "If you are not healthy, you will be kept in the house for me. Why do you have to come out to have a shower? We are all a family. You will give me this battle." I won’t be scared.” After finishing speaking, he said to the maidservant behind him, “You don’t want to stop her when she is upset, so let your grandma blow in the wind. I think it’s your grandma. You can get used to having a good temper, if it was before, hum!"

Jia Min's face was flushed, Mrs. Shi helped Jia Min back into the room without saying a word.Xuanxuan followed behind, turned her head to the side, and saw the little Lin Daiyu.

Daiyu is only five years old, smart and intelligent, and the aura she exudes from her whole body when she stands there makes people feel that she is extraordinary.

"Hello, sister." Daiyu knelt down and greeted Xuanxuan.

Xuanxuan went over to hold Daiyu's hand, bowed back, and said, "Your sister is too polite. My sister is indeed different. Judging by her behavior, I am not as clumsy as I am." These words were in Xuanxuan's heart, I can't say that I am not convinced, she is naturally beautiful, but she looks fresh and refined. Compared with five-year-old Daiyu, seven-year-old Xuanxuan really looks like a village idiot.

Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled, followed Mrs. Shi enthusiastically with Xuanxuan, and whispered to Xuanxuan as she walked, "Auntie is so imposing, actually I don't want my mother to come out, and I have dissuaded her, but mother said I haven't seen my aunt for many years, and my love is here, and my mother said that she is feeling better today, so she insisted on coming out."

Xuanxuan raised her eyes, looked at Daiyu with a half-smile, and thought to herself, after all, she is a young lady from a rich family, she is only five years old, and her delicate and clear thoughts are beyond comparison with ordinary people.This is a word that counts, but it is amazing!

Daiyu lowered her head shyly and continued walking forward with a smile.

In the house, Mrs. Shi couldn't help but push Jia Min down on the step, letting him rest comfortably.

"It's been ten years, and I finally saw my sister. I have a lot of things to say to my sister. Besides, I've been asleep for a long time, and I can really continue to sleep." Jia Min struggled to sit up. He wanted to go to the ground, but was stopped by Mrs. Shi.Mrs. Shi said decisively, "You give me a good life, I won't run away anytime soon. If you want to talk, you can just lie on top of me, and we mothers can sit beside me."

Jia Min said embarrassedly, "That's not good..."

"It's nothing wrong. Are you the older sister or am I the older sister? Listen to me, you're right." Mrs. Shi turned around and had the chair moved to the front before she sat down.They also asked people to find a few pier for Xuanxuan, Daiyu, and Houxuan to sit on.

Jia Min watched from the roof, and said with a light smile, "My sister is still so neat, my housekeeper has been behind me for many years and I still can't compare to my sister."

Mrs. Shi waved her hand, "Don't talk about it, I am not helpless. Back then, if there was some room, who wouldn't want to be a carefree young lady, having fun in the boudoir all day long? I couldn't enjoy that blessing myself. , so I tend to favor my daughter and neglect discipline, and now I am compared with you Yu'er, but I am compared to you. Yu'er, come here, let Auntie take a look."

Daiyu walked up to Mrs. Shi and greeted Mrs. Shi, but she was stopped by Mrs. Shi, "What kind of politeness is there in my family? I keep this rule in my heart and it will be useful in the future. If your sister is as obedient and caring as you, I can do it too." Sleep a few more days and sleep peacefully."

Jia Min waved at Xuanxuan, Xuanxuan passed by, Jia Min looked at Xuanxuan carefully, shook her head and sighed, "Sister is really humble, how nice Xuanxuan is. My Yu'er is too thoughtful, so she is so young. That's why I made it weaker, in the final analysis, it's all my fault as a mother, dragging down the child."

Mrs. Shi was not happy, "Don't say that, why are you so bad? If you hadn't been pregnant in October and gave birth to her, where would she have come from? Let me tell you, your young lady's temper still hasn't changed. If you have nothing to do, hurt Qiu Beiyue and look for troubles. Life is not like this."

Jia Min nodded, and called Dexie to him. The four-year-old Dexie was very cute, with a sweet mouth, and he coaxed Jia Min to give him a lot of good things.Mrs. Shi looked at Daiyu with her arms around her, and sighed in her heart, this is fate, why did Jia Min have a son but not raise it.

Within a cup of tea, Lin Ruhai came over.

After Lin Ruhai entered the house, he carefully observed Jia Min's complexion, and saw that he was quite tired, so he turned around and greeted his sister personally, and told Madam Shi that he had already arranged the courtyard for the Shi family, and Master Shi was on his way right now. .Mrs. Shi got up and said she was tired, so she went back first. Lin Ruhai immediately arranged for a maid to lead her to the bamboo courtyard arranged for Shi's family in the west.

After the people left, Lin Ruhai personally took medicine for Jia Min, asked with concern if he felt unwell, and must speak up if he felt any discomfort.

Jia Min shook her head, "I'm fine. It's just that I didn't expect that after so many years, my sister is still the same as before, but I am old and sick."

Lin Ruhai said seriously, "Madam, how can you say that? Madam's poor health is not due to the exhaustion of taking care of me and Yu'er. Could it be that my sister embarrasses you? No, my sister is not such a person... But, if it is true Don't take it to heart, she hasn't had a happy life these years."

Jia Min nodded and remained silent.Of course she knew that Mrs. Shi was not the kind of person who gossips and tells stories, but apart from the sisterhood, they are still sisters-in-law, and Mrs. Shi Lin Wenru is Lin Ruhai's eldest sister. The Lin family has no descendants so far, so she cannot absolve herself of the blame. She has done dirty things in recent years, and used tricks in the early years. She has no children, which may be a kind of punishment from God...

……

Xuanxuan held Dexie's hand, and listened to Mrs. Wang's clichés when Mrs. Wang instructed her.The little maid who guided them was named Xue Mian, she was the son of the Lin family, her old lady entrusted her to the old housekeeper years ago, and it took a lot of effort to find a job for Xue Mian, now she is Jia Min's third Wait for the little girl.

According to Xue Mian, Lin Ruhai has no children so far. A few years ago, Jia Min managed to have a boy, but he didn't want to raise him until he was three years old and suffered a serious illness.Although Jia Min didn't do anything for Lin Ruhai, Lin Ruhai still loves him very much. He has no interest in the girls in the backyard. They may not see each other once in ten days and a half months. Pregnancy is naturally impossible. up...

Mrs. Shi kept a slight smile, and when she arrived at the bamboo courtyard, she gave Xue Mian a small handful of copper coins, Xue Mian accepted it with a smile on her face, and went back happily to return to her command.

"Ma'am, look at this..." Wang Momo asked softly.

Mrs. Shi snorted coldly, "Let's talk about it later, go inside first, and arrange for our family to talk about other things."

"Yes."

When the adults had just arrived, several aunts were arguing about where to live and were not happy about where to live. One said he was not feeling well and didn’t want to live in the east, the other said he didn’t want to be sick and don’t share a room with anyone. Although no one was making loud noises, But even a soft voice can be noisy if you listen too much.

"Okay, shut up, you haven't reached your home yet, don't be ashamed of yourself here." Mrs. Shi came in with a frown and scolded.

Master Shi hurriedly said that he had a headache, and everything was arranged by Mrs. Shi.Mrs. Shi resolutely asked Mr. Shi to go back to the master bedroom to rest first, the other aunts shared a room with each other, Mo Xuan took Zhu Xuan to the same room, and Dexie Haoxuan followed Hou Xuan to live.Xuanxuan lived in the hut next to Mrs. Shi and Mrs. Shi, so she followed Mrs. Shi and Mrs. Shi.

Mrs. Shi's arrangements were made properly, and she didn't care who liked it or who didn't. In short, she said, "Although this is my natal brother's house, it's not our Shi's house after all. I don’t care about anything, let’s talk about everything after we arrive in Beijing and settle down completely. Well, let’s break up if there’s nothing else to do, and go back to our respective rooms to rest. We’ll only be here for a few days, so we have to continue on our way.”

The aunts agreed on the surface, but they didn't take it seriously in their hearts. During this journey, Lord Shi lived with Mrs. Shi all the time, and they hadn't had dinner or even met Mrs. Shi for a long time.But the majesty of the main room was also revealed at this time, besides, Mrs. Shi had a family like Lin Ruhai, which made those aunts have nothing to say.
