[Red Chamber] I am Lin Daiyu and her uncle

On the eve of the wedding, the Beijing Palace sent a dowry to the Lin family.

Shen Jiao has been busy preparing for the wedding recently, and Lin Qing has to go to court, so the two of them can't see each other during the day except when they sleep.

Originally, Lin Qing wanted to take advantage of the night to warm up, but Shen Jiao didn't go to bed for a long time, and sat on the Kang, muttering words under the dim light.

Lin Qing urged Shen Jiao several times to watch it tomorrow and go to bed as soon as possible, but Shen Jiao only verbally agreed, and her body was very honest and she did not move a bit.Lin Qing fell asleep while waiting, and when he woke up, he found that Shenjiao was still below. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore, jumped out of bed and snatched the booklet from Shenjiao's hand.

"What are you doing?!" Shen Jiao exclaimed, "Don't make trouble, I'm going to finish ordering soon."

① Lin Qing ignored her, turned a page casually, and read aloud directly: "One hundred mouths of sheep, one hundred jugs of wine, one hundred catties of tea, four pairs of gold hairpins and bracelets, a pair of strips, pearls and tiger amber necklaces, Five pairs of real pearls, emerald hair and jade hairpins each, two gold-painted and silver-coated ones, one hundred taels of gold wares, one thousand pieces of color, 50 yuan, three hundred pieces each of brocade, silk, silk, and silk, ten pieces of gold-embroidered and painted clothes, and a shelf of letters Wrap a bundle of silk, and charge twenty horses and horses. There are also fruit plates, pollen, flower pots, sleeping sheep and deer flower cakes, silver wins, small-colored gold and silver coins, etc. "

Lin Qing closed the booklet after reading, and then held the booklet to show Shen Jiao, "You only read less than half of such a thick booklet, and you said you were going to finish it soon? Are you going to sleep tonight?"

Shen Jiao bit her lip lightly, grabbed the booklet, and finally sighed: "Okay! I won't read it, okay?"

"Hey, you're so good!" Lin Qingxi smiled.

Shen Jiaojiao spat at Lin Qing angrily, scolding him for not being in good shape all day long, and going crazy when outsiders are not around.

Lin Qing lay quietly on the bed with Shenjiao in her arms, but couldn't fall asleep immediately, so they chatted.

"I told my elder brother a few days ago."

"What did you say?" Shen Jiao raised her head and asked.

"About Yu'er's dowry."

Shen Jiao understood, "Then... what did he say?"

"My elder brother didn't agree with me to leave all the Lin family's property to Yu'er as a dowry at the beginning. I said it all the time, but Xiaozhi was dry with emotion and reason, so he reluctantly agreed to give two-thirds of the property as a dowry. Yu'er's dowry."

"What about the other third?"

Lin Qing pondered and said: "I plan to use it as my elder brother's pension money. In a few years, my elder brother will retire and return to his hometown. How about taking him back to the capital and using this money to serve him until his death?"

"You've already made up your mind, and you're still asking me what to do?" Shen Jiao chuckled.

"You can't say that. You are my wife, the head of the Lin family, and the mother of the child. I have always believed in the principle that the man is in charge of the outside and the woman is in charge of the house. It is reasonable to say that you should make the decisions at home. Where is it my turn to make my own decisions?"

Shenjiao was pleased by these words, nestled in Lin Qing's arms, and said softly: "Your mouth is really sweet. You are a gentleman outside, but you are first-rate in coaxing women."

Lin Qing hugged Shenjiao tightly, and said with a smile: "So, you agree?"

Shen Jiao gave a soft "um" and stopped talking.

Lin Qing felt relieved.

With a wife like this, what can a husband ask for?

A few days before the wedding, Princess Ding'an happened to be confinement, and immediately moved to the Lin Mansion without stopping, and handed over her daughter who was only a few months old to her frustrated husband.

One is that she can be free to accompany Daiyu, and the other is that she can divert Li Wan's attention, drag him out of the frustration of failing the exam, and fully experience the joy of being a father.

On the day of the wedding, the Lin family wore red makeup, and the grand occasion was not as grand as Shenjiao's marriage a few years ago.On both sides of the streets from Lin's Mansion to Beijing Prince's Mansion, there are huge crowds of people and empty alleys. Seeing the elegant, elegant and noble Shui Rong on the horse, everyone is impressed by the beauty of the man and woman, and the natural beauty of the couple.

That night, the fireworks in Kyoto were brilliant all night long and didn't stop until dawn.

Candle night in the bridal chamber.

Shui Rong lifted Daiyu's hijab, looking at Fengguan Xiapei, the stunning beauty, and her shy and timid bright eyes, Shui Rong suddenly remembered the scene he saw in his dream that day.

It turned out that it was really her...

The smile on Shui Rong's face gradually penetrated into his eyes, and it began to come from the heart, not just out of etiquette and inertia.

In July, Lin Ruhai set off for Jiangnan.

Lin Qing personally went to the pier to see Lin Ruhai off. Only then did Lin Ruhai give Lin Qing a word, saying that when His Majesty called him into the palace, he vaguely said that Lin Qing would be sent abroad at the end of the year. his meaning.

Lin Qing was a little surprised.The emperor's current body is really difficult to deal with. It is estimated that it will only take a few years, and it will not even take so long. He is a staunch princeling, and he has a close relationship with the prince's family. Isn't it the time when he is needed? ?Why did you dismiss him instead?

He couldn't figure it out, but felt that everything was a little bit weird these days, and it was inexplicably uneasy.
