The Jade in the Red Chamber is the Royal Courtyard

"Yang Xiaoying, Yang Xiaocui, people from the south of the Yangtze River, slaves of the Zhen family, used to be the maidservants next to the third concubine of the master of the Zhen family, Zhen Tong, and later fell in love with the old master of the Zhen family through the old man of the Lin family. Sent to the Lin Mansion to be a spy, but right?" Xue Lan said lightly.

Yang Xiaoying and Yang Xiaocui looked at each other and stood there dumbfounded. They never thought that they would only come to the Lin Mansion for three years. According to the agreement with Master Zhen's family, their parents would become Zhuangzi within two years. The owner of the villa, at that time they will become the big girls next to their young master, and they may even become the aunts next to the young master, what a dignified thing, but now these seem to be far away from me up.

"How about it, you two beauties, will you two give me 1000 taels of redemption money, or should I sell it to my mother in the brothel again?" Xue Lan smiled coldly.There was a playful light in her eyes, following Daiyu during this time, Xuelan not only learned how to deal with Daiyu without being surprised, she even learned how to tease her, sometimes Wang Nanny couldn't help but say that Daiyu A few words with Xue Lan, the good girl actually learned the words of that ruffian.It made everyone laugh and it was over.

But now Xuelan couldn't help talking and laughing on this kind of occasion, but it could be seen that Xuelan was very angry. Even such a little maid was a slave sent by another family. It can be said what happened to the Lin family now look.

The Zhen family is also a well-known family in the south of the Yangtze River. It is a subsidiary family of the Jia family. It has a good relationship with the Wang family. In particular, the current head of the Zhen family almost became relatives with the Wang family, but the Wang family finally chose to marry within the four major families. , because the Zhen family is still one level behind the real four major families.

It never occurred to Daiyu that the Jia family was really pervasive, and the Zhen family was really shameless.

"Girl, please be kind, be kind!" Yang Xiaoying and Yang Xiaocui also knew that it was useless to argue at this time, they hurriedly knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing.

"I beg you to be merciful, girl. The two of us sisters are willing to take the deed of sale and go home. From then on, neither the Zhen family nor the Lin family has anything to do with our sisters." Yang Xiaoying continued to kowtow while still wishful thinking.

But in her heart, she thought that as long as she got back the deed of selling herself, everything would be hers when she returned to the Zhen Mansion, but her own sisters were still popular in the eyes of the master.

Daiyu closed her eyes as if she didn't hear, these little miscellaneous fish don't need her to pay attention at all.

"For mercy? But it's too late, or your sister's 1000 taels of silver, or selling yourself, just stand aside and think about it, next one, Wu Pei!" Xue Lan continued to shout.

"Wu Pei, the historians of the four major families, do you still need me to continue?" Xue Lan glanced at the woman who came up.

"Ms. Xue is merciful, just tell me how much money this old slave needs to redeem himself!" The old woman said that she was an extremely astute person, and immediately stepped forward and said when she heard Xue Lan say this.

"1000 taels of silver!" Xue Lan said lightly.

"Ms. Snow, please wait! This old servant will get someone to marry you!" the woman said respectfully.

"Well, Mother Xu, let's go with her!" Xue Lan continued.

"Yes!" Mother Xu, a woman next to Xuelan, immediately agreed, and dragged that woman Wu to the backyard.

At first, Mrs. Wu planned to take advantage of Daiyu's gathering of all the people in the front yard and take advantage of the emptiness of the back yard to steal the contents of the master's house in the back yard and crawl out of the dog hole, but Mrs. Wu never thought of the shrewd Xue Lan actually asked Mother Xu to follow Mrs. Wu, and what Mrs. Wu didn't expect was that as soon as she entered the backyard, she saw a dozen or so little girls performing their duties. The courtyard was even more lively, and there were even a few women waiting in front of the house where he lived, as if they were waiting for him to knock down the house.

Seeing the heavily guarded backyard, Mrs. Wu had no choice but to go into her room to pack things, and packed the things from a cabinet, and quietly estimated the value of those things one by one, and finally wrapped the estimated things separately. Only then did Xiao Bao put away the other things.

"Ms. Xue, this is my redemption!" Mrs. Wu took out the things in her hand and handed them to Xue Lan.

Xue Lan first took out a rose nobile with thorns and silk, and looked at it carefully.

"Madam Wu is yours?" Xue Lan slowly put the gold hairpin aside and asked coldly.

Mrs. Wu was slightly taken aback, and quickly said, "Miss Huilan, it's a family tradition!"

"Family? Did your ancestors have the surname Lin?" Xue Lan reprimanded sharply.

"Family, look at the imprint on it, do you think I'm blind?" Xue Lan handed the gold hairpin in front of Mrs. Wu, and there was a small word "Lin" engraved on the inside of the gold hairpin. This is clearly something that only the mistress of the Lin family can have, how can it be in the hands of the woman who is sweeping outside now.

"This, this!" The woman was speechless.

"Call me!" Xue Lan slapped the table without saying a word.

But Daiyu stood up and walked to the study, the rest of Sanxue and Zijuan also followed closely beside Daiyu, but when they reached the door of the study, except for Zijuan, the other Sanxue disappeared quietly.

"How is it? Are things at home a headache?" Lin Ruhai also knew that Daiyu started to rectify the Lin family today, but she didn't expect Daiyu to come back so soon.

"There was a theft case at home, and Xuelan is on trial there, but I don't want to do it again, otherwise some old people will come to intercede!" Daiyu said with a smile.

"There were not many people in the courtyard of our house before, especially the people in the inner courtyard. There were not many bad people, but don't waste the innocent!" Lin Ruhai said, grabbing Daiyu's hand.

"Don't worry, Daddy, it's just that the three aunts don't know what Daddy thinks?" Daiyu quickly agreed, but she handed over the most difficult task to Lin Ruhai, after all, those three people were all his concubines.

"If you are willing to go, let her go. Let her take everything in her house, and the little maid can also take it away. In addition, you have given 1000 taels of silver as a settling fee. If you don't like to go, follow me Well, if I'm not here in the future, you can ask me if you are willing to guard, but don't wait too long." Lin Ruhai sighed after thinking about it.

"What are you talking about, Daddy? What do you mean you are not here? Where are you going when you are not here?" Daiyu felt sad but still interrupted Lin Ruhai's words.

"Daddy is telling the truth. If Daddy can't do it anymore, the Lin family will rely on you and Jiangyu to support them. But Jiangyu is still young, and you are not as good as Ji, but you are smart and decisive. Daddy is relieved. That kid You Mingyu defends you everywhere." There was a faint smile on the corner of Lin Ruhai's mouth, as if death was not something incomprehensible to him at all, and he really didn't have anything to worry about.

"Daddy, don't you want Jiangyu anymore?" Daiyu thought for a while and moved Jiangyu out. Now maybe Jiangyu is Lin Ruhai's only concern.

"When you get the house in order, we'll bring back Jiang Yu, and your teacher. Let's have a good New Year at home this year!" Lin Ruhai looked at Li Weiyang next to him.

"Don't worry, there's that big guy, I'll definitely call you back." Li Weiyang's tears also flowed down. He knew that Lin Ruhai was explaining his affairs, but he said everything If you don't come out, the Jia family is really too ruthless, and they will use all means to achieve their goals. They didn't expect that even Lin Ruhai, who was a guest outside, could be tricked.

"Mom, it's time for us to pack up and go to the capital!" Xue Baochai put down the book in his hand, looked at his mother who was still making shoes, and since his father passed away, he has handled the people and things that should be dealt with in the family in a thunderous way. , now there are only three of their mothers left in the entire Xue family.

"Baochai, do you really want to enter the palace?" Mrs. Xue was still a little bit reluctant to part with her daughter, even though she was a young woman, she was extremely intelligent, even a bit stronger than her brother.The elders of their family once said that it is a pity that this child is a daughter, otherwise the Xue family might be able to become a prince.This Xue Baochai is not only beautiful, but also very knowledgeable. Although he is young, he is proficient in all aspects of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

"Mother, elder brother is useless, but this family will only lose and will not defend. If I enter the palace, our family can still maintain its glory and wealth. Even the Jia family must look at us highly. Even if elder brother Why don't you live up to expectations, this family will only prosper, if not, it will be good for the future to only shelter your aunt's family!" Xue Baochai said slowly.

"Forget it, everything is up to you. I don't know who you learned from. It's just pity that you were born in this business. Even if you enter the palace, you will be wronged by this position!" Madam Xue thought for a while. I want to say with some tears.

"Mom, how do you say this? Since ancient times, heroes don't ask where they come from. Although our family is a merchant, it is also a serious imperial merchant. Who dares to look down on outsiders?" Xue Baochai said with a smile, but he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. My background is indeed low, and my status as a businessman really makes my future a bit bleak. "

"Then let's pack up our things and go to the capital when the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, but we have to do some calculations!" Mrs. Xue thought for a while and finally came to a conclusion.

In less than half a month, the Lin family has taken on a new look from top to bottom. After dealing with a batch of moths, the Lin family is in a kind of unity again, especially the return of the young master and the improvement of Lin Ruhai's condition. The dull Lin family was in a state of radiance.

Only Daiyu and Li Weiyang know that Lin Ruhai has really reached the end of his illness. To put it bluntly, it is actually a bit like a flashback, but Jiangyu's return made Daiyu a little happy. Now that Jiangyu has died He is six years old, with red lips and white teeth, but he is definitely not a weak child. He has already learned the basics of lightness skills, and his handwriting has already taken shape.

"Daddy, sister!" Jiang Yu smiled and led her servant to Lin Ruhai's room early in the morning to greet her father and sister first.

"Jiangyu, is it okay to live at home?" Daiyu looked at Jiangyu lovingly, and Daiyu always had a feeling of being a mother on behalf of this little doll, and this Jiangyu could actually be regarded as a child. She grew up beside Daiyu.

"Well, sister, I'm used to it!" Jiangyu said with a smile. In fact, Daiyu would go to Jiangyu's room for rounds every night. Of course, she knew Jiangyu's habits very well, and because Jiangyu was a male My child, so there is no maid in Jiangyu's house, only a servant named Laifu who has just turned nine years old.

"That's good. After breakfast, you can learn morning lessons at Daddy's room. It just so happens that Daddy is in good spirits, so he can still give you advice!" Daiyu couldn't help but pursed her lips and said with a smile.

"You girl will not let your father relax for a while!" Li Weiyang said with a smile, his wife and daughter will be here in a few days.

"Father thinks that there will be plenty of time after leisure. Now that Jiangyu is so young, it's time for elementary school. Now our teacher has to be busy with your affairs, and I have to be busy with family affairs. The most leisurely thing is always Dad lying on the bed, who will teach him if you don't help him?" Lin Daiyu said with a smile.

"You girl is really a ghost, you won't even let your father off!" Of course Li Weiyang knew what Daiyu meant, but he couldn't help but scolded with a smile.Sometimes this female disciple of mine is really a monster.

"Of course, Dad is a dignified Tanhua, so teaching a little kid is still a problem?" Lin Daiyu couldn't help but smiled.

"Forget it, forget it, I'll teach it, Wei Yang, you can't beat my daughter!" Lin Ruhai couldn't help laughing.

Daiyu took the opportunity to wink at Jiangyu, and Jiangyu quickly stepped forward and said, "Daddy, my son's book is not missing, but there are a few small questions that I can't understand, so Daddy will answer them for my son!" Jiang Yu's sensible voice made Lin Ruhai's heart skip a beat, and he immediately grabbed Jiang Yu's hand.

"You eat first, and when you're done eating, ask your father if you don't understand anything!" Lin Ruhai replied softly. He also owed Jiangyu a lot in his heart, but he didn't owe Daiyu the same. How did the Lin family ever enjoy the love of their parents? Li Weiyang carried her to the Valley of Medicine for treatment when she was still a baby. How many times did she suffer from death and life? Treating it as a bargaining chip is something Lin Ruhai can't bear.

"Yu'er, Dad has something to ask you!" Lin Ruhai said to Daiyu suddenly.

"You eat first, I'll take Jiangyu to see if his martial arts has improved?" Of course, Li Weiyang understood what Lin Ruhai meant, so he put down the bowls and chopsticks and led Jiangyu who had finished eating, to go out first.

"Yu'er, what do you think of Baoyu from Jia's family?" Lin Ruhai asked this question after thinking about it a little.Lin Ruhai is very clear about Jia Min and Jia's mother's thoughts, but after all, Daiyu is young and Dongfang Mingyu is not with Daiyu during this time, it seems that there is nothing to say if Daiyu empathizes with each other. In other words, Lin Ruhai wanted to wait for a while to ask again, but Lin Ruhai knew that his body was getting weaker and weaker. If he didn't ask now, he was afraid that he would never have another chance in the future.

"Baoyu?" Daiyu frowned slightly.

"I don't have a good impression of this person. The smell of makeup is too heavy. He is almost like a girl. Every day, he is either a sister or a younger sister. He also said: 'Daughters are made of water, and men are made of mud. I see When I meet a daughter, I feel refreshed; when I see a man, I feel turbid! Smelly@@forced.’ Isn’t it ridiculous to say such things? Some men have the smell of copper, but they still rely on their hands Earning money is much better than her ignorant people." Daiyu said with a smile.

"Since this is the case, let me tell you that your mother originally wanted you to be engaged to Baoyu, because I disagree, and I always think that it is best for you to make up your own mind about your marriage. I did it half-arranged because of your mother. The marriage turned out to be such a tragedy, how could you let us go our way, your mother agreed in the end, but I never thought that you would listen to your mother's words and live in Jia's mansion for three years. Yu'er Ah, although three years is short, it can change a lot of things, you must not be half-hearted and forget what you said in front of Daddy today." Lin Ruhai said to Daiyu seriously.

"Daddy, my daughter dare not insult the face of the ancestors of the Lin family!" Daiyu also said earnestly with tears streaming down her eyes. Now there are only Lin Ruhai and her daughter left in the whole room, so Daiyu dared to let go of her boldness. speak their own opinions.

"That's good, that's good!" Lin Ruhai said happily. "As far as choosing a son-in-law, I think Ming Yu's kid is really good." Lin Ruhai said excitedly.

"Father, what are you talking about?" Daiyu's face turned red all of a sudden. Although Daiyu is the soul of the 21st century, she was also an extremely shy girl in her previous life. Yu didn't feel any embarrassment, but if she really said someone she was interested in, Daiyu felt a fever on her little face.

"Hehe, don't tell me, don't tell me, these things are all up to you." Lin Ruhai laughed loudly, and let go of the last stone that couldn't let go in her heart.

Although the winter in the south of the Yangtze River is not as cold as in the north, the house is a little damp and cold. Daiyu had already asked the little maid to prepare good silver frost charcoal and put it in Lin Ruhai's room. The food is well-organized, and even the voices of the Lin family's lower industries have begun to be reorganized. Although Daiyu was only a Chinese teacher in her previous life, in the big economic trend where all kinds of knowledge are flooding, people who learn Chinese can understand how much some economical things.
