The return of Fengxi of the Red Chamber

Jia Lian stayed in Lin's house, and the three imperial physicians consulted Jia Min every day, wishing to change a prescription a hundred and eighty times, and had no time to pay attention to Jia Lian.

As for Lin Ruhai, he still has an official position, and the matter of salt administration has always been important. He leaves early and returns late every day, and rarely finds time to chat with Jia Lian.Lin Daiyu was busy with housekeeping, serving Jia Min's daily meals and medicine, but she was also busy without touching the ground.

There is only one brother Dong, who is a real idler because he has not yet reached the age of formal schooling.

Dong Geer is five years old this year, two years older than Jia Lian's son Mao Geer, but he has a completely different temperament, which makes Jia Lian very rare, and he is very patient with him.

Therefore, the little brother Dong took on the task of entertaining his cousin Jia Lian. After getting up and washing up every day, the first thing he did was to go to the Indus Courtyard to find Jia Lian.

Brother Dong's height is only around Jia Lian's waist, because he has been well-bred since he was a child, there are two lumps of milk fat trembling on his face when he walks around, and he has inherited the good looks of Jia Min and Lin Ruhai, just like the boys under the seat of Guanyin, pink Carved jade is lovable.

It's just that he has such a cute appearance, but his temperament has inherited Lin Ruhai's elegance and integrity. He speaks and does things with a strict eye, just like a little grown-up.

Early this morning, Brother Dong arrived in Jia Lian's courtyard, and said with a stern face, "Did my second cousin sleep well last night? My sister got up early and specially ordered the cook to make a Beijing-style breakfast today. The second cousin can try it later and see if it is different from your family's taste."

Seeing that he was so upright, Jia Lian's hands were itchy, and he really wanted to pinch his chubby face secretly.

But thinking about the fate of stretching out his hand last time, Jia Lian resentfully let go of this thought, nodded and said, "I slept until dawn last night and slept very well. My cousin came here a quarter of an hour later than yesterday. Could it be that he was taken care of?" Are you stuck with food?"

Dong Geer glanced at him, and argued: "Cousin, don't joke, my brother was not caught by the delicious food, but just got up early to go to his mother to say hello, seeing her looking good, I said a few more words to my mother and sister." That's all."

Seeing him like this, Jia Lian stopped joking and took him into the house: "That's how it is. My aunt's health has improved, and it's worth traveling thousands of miles to the two imperial doctors. Cousin, please sit down for a while, I just I'm sweating all over from punching, and I'll talk to you after washing up."

Jia Lian had to practice martial arts every day after waking up in the morning. Brother Dong knew it, so he just nodded and moved his short legs to the flower hall to wait.

Jia Lian was very fast, Brother Dong only drank a cup of red date tea, and he came out briskly.

The two went to the front yard together again, Lin Ruhai was waiting for the two to have breakfast, when he saw the two coming, he immediately ordered the servant girl to pass the meal.

Jia Lian has been here for the past few days and looked at him coldly. Lin Ruhai is indeed busy with business.I get up early every day and have breakfast with my family at most, and then go to the government office non-stop to handle official business. I heard that I have to go out to inspect the salt field from time to time. Ten days and a half months are short.

From this point of view, it's no wonder that after Jia Min's death in the previous life, Lin Ruhai agreed to send Lin Daiyu to the capital to be taken care of by Jia Shishi.It is true that Daiyu will be a little over six years old at that time, not to mention the pain of losing her mother, the only adult in the Lin family is often not at home, leaving her a weak child at home, no one will feel at ease.

Although the Jia family may not be reliable, Yangzhou is really dangerous. The salt administration is closely related to the stability of the country. Lin Ruhai's position as the patrolling salt censor is naturally very important.Jia Min's poisoning in this life also saved Lin Ruhai from the disaster, and there must be no shortage of open and dark arrows in the previous life.

Lin Ruhai is an official of the imperial court, so he can naturally die for Da Qianguo, in order to repay the kindness of today's knowledge.But Lin Daiyu, a weak girl in the boudoir, was completely unable to deal with this treacherous situation, and Lin Ruhai couldn't bear the heart of her young daughter getting involved in officialdom struggles.

Thinking of this, Jia Lian couldn't help sighing. Lin Daiyu lived in Jia's family in her last life, so she naturally had no worries about her life and safety, but her life under the fence was not easy.Although she was protected by Jia Shishi, everyone else looked at her covetously and only wanted to take the property of the Lin family as their own. As for her, an orphan, no one had any serious plans for her.

Even in the later period, even Jia Shishi, the grandmother, cruelly abandoned Lin Daiyu, the granddaughter, for the sake of the Jia family and Jia Baoyu, so that she ended up dying in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion before she reached her prime.

Thinking of this, Jia Lian couldn't help but tremble, another figure flashed in his mind, His Majesty Situ Yao.

As far as Jia Lian has seen these days, Lin Ruhai can really afford the word "conscientious", which can almost be described as long-cherished and night-sleeping.And according to Jia Lian's understanding of the present, among the servants of the Lin family, there must be people who have been placed by the present.But he just watched others attack Lin Ruhai's family. Even after Jia Min and Lin Ruhai both passed away, he watched Lin Daiyu die young alone.

Jia Lian's thoughts changed, and he suddenly realized that maybe it's not that he can't manage it now, but that Lin Daiyu really has no other use.Even if there was an accident, it was due to the poor care of the Jia family. Today, a decree has been made to avenge Lin Daiyu and gain a good reputation among Qingliu civil officials. It saves worry and effort and benefits.

According to today's scheming methods and past manners, it is not impossible for him to do this.

Jia Lian shivered and thought of himself.

Everyone said that the meritorious service is the master, and his current achievements can be regarded as celebrities through the ages. Moreover, the Jia family started from military meritorious service in the past.In this way, the reputation and military power are all there. If there is a heart of disobedience, then the current emperor may have to be replaced by someone else. Doesn't he have the slightest fear of himself in his heart?

The more Jia Lian thought about it, the more afraid she became, because of her ignorance in the past and her audacity now!

He remembered how he got along with the present in the past. Perhaps he had spent his whole life in the modern society, and sometimes he spoke outspokenly, and he didn't feel that he was inferior to the present. He probably aroused the dissatisfaction of that person long ago. up.

In addition to this trip, he actually borrowed today's car. Although there was a reason for the incident, how could the Emperor's car be borrowed at will? This is throwing that person's face on the ground.

But now he happily agreed, and even rewarded him with a car generously, without any surprises. Such behavior made Jia Lian even more frightened and uneasy.

Jia Lian's face turned pale, Lin Ruhai saw his expression getting worse, and couldn't help saying: "Lian'er, why are you so obsessed with thinking?"

Jia Lian came back to his senses, smiled and said, "It's a small matter, it's nothing, Uncle Lao is worried about it."

After finishing speaking, he picked up a piece of Bazhen Cake with his chopsticks, and praised: "The cooks in my uncle's house are so skilled. The Bazhen Cake is sweet and soft, and it melts in your mouth. It's the best."

Seeing that he had no intentions, Lin Ruhai didn't ask any more questions, and only greeted him with a smile: "Since you like it, you can eat more. The taste in Jiangnan is too sweet, and I was worried that you might not be used to it. Fortunately, your aunt brought a few When the cooks from Beijing come over, they can occasionally change their flavors."

The two were about to continue exchanging pleasantries, when Brother Dong looked over with a straight face: "Father, cousin, you can't eat without talking."

Jia Lian...

Lin Ruhai...

Reminding a little boy about table manners, the two adults both smiled coquettishly, shut down the conversation immediately, and focused on breakfast instead of mentioning it.

After breakfast, Jia Lian dismissed his little cousin who was going to take him shopping on the pretext of something to do, and went back to the yard by himself.

Sitting in front of the desk with a heavy face, Jia Lian kept thinking in his heart, what should he do next.

It's also because he himself didn't think enough in the past, and his actions and words were not thorough enough. Fortunately, the hidden guards he trained by himself have not been discovered by the present, and there is a little room for regression.Another one, the railroad track has not been laid yet, and the next step of operation still needs to be done by myself. I can still use myself today, and I probably won't attack myself in the short term.

But I should also plan ahead, according to my current disposition, when I am useless, he will definitely do the thing of killing a donkey, and the Jia family will be in danger by then.

Since Jia Lian was reborn, all he cared about was his wife and children. If he took their lives because of his careless behavior, he would never allow it.Thinking of the bustling world over there in the previous life, Jia Lian's mind suddenly changed, and he began to care.

It has been less than a hundred years since the founding of the Dagan Kingdom, and three generations of emperors in succession can be regarded as people who have worked hard to govern.In addition to the things I donated, now is the time when the country is prosperous, and it is estimated that there are still hundreds of years before its normal collapse.

If he really attacked his family today, Jia Lian would definitely resist. By that time, he would not want to see people dying, so he needs to prepare a way out early.

Jia Lian knew his wife and children very well. He grew up with gold and jade, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are made of gold and jade. They are not people who can endure hardship, so Jia Lian thought further.

He thought about the nautical charts brought back by the fleet of sea ships, and he had some calculations in his mind.

Thousands of miles south of Dagan Kingdom, there are a series of islands. Although the climate is hotter, the products are very rich.It is said that the scenery is beautiful, and the local aborigines are not diligent in farming, but because of the unique geographical location, they can be considered to have ample food and clothing, and are very happy.

Perhaps, I can build a base camp there, as the first retreat for my family.

Moreover, although the Dagan Kingdom has a vast land and abundant resources, the overseas world is even more vast and boundless.

Jia Lian considered himself a person who had seen the world, so he wouldn't bind himself firmly to this piece of land like the contemporary people.Since the vast world outside could do a lot, Jia Lian suddenly woke up.

Why can't I lay down a piece of land for my descendants?

As soon as he thought of it, Jia Lian told the servants beside him, and then left the Lin family alone, and wandered in the street outside.Walking east and west, seeing food stalls on the side of the road, I will stop to pack a copy and carry it. When I encounter a beautiful jewelry store, I will also go in and order a few sets.

The few people following Jia Lian felt relieved when they saw his leisurely appearance, and just went out for a stroll.

When it was time for lunch, Jia Lian found a boy of twelve or thirteen years old by the side of the road, and handed over a few copper coins: "Little brother, do you recognize the family of the inspector Yan Yushi Lin?"

Although the young man was wearing a literati's long gown, it was washed and turned white, and there were a few patches on it with fine stitches. It looked like a student from a poor family.However, his figure is as tall and straight as a green bamboo, his eyes are also clear, and his disposition should be good.

Hearing the voice, he turned his head to look at Jia Lian's attire, which looked like a rich and idle person, so he nodded timidly.

Jia Lian handed the copper coins forward, and then said with a smile: "I am a relative of his family, these copper coins are counted as my errand expenses, please go to the gate of his house and find someone named Lin Fu. Let’s just say that I used my lunch outside today, so that the mansion doesn’t have to wait anxiously, maybe you can do this?”

The young man's eyes lit up, and he made a bow and said, "It turned out that the Marquis Zhaoming was in person, but the student didn't know Mount Tai. The student went to report the letter, and he would definitely not miss the matter of the Marquis, nor would Lin Your Excellency is worried."

When Jia Lian heard that he called himself a student, he knew that he was a scholar, but at the age of twelve or thirteen, he had already passed the examination for a scholar.Still in a family with a prosperous literary style like Jiangnan, it is even more rare, and he should also be a talented student.

After the young man finished speaking, he turned around and was about to run away, but he didn't take the copper coin from Jia Lian's hand.

At this moment, Jia Lian couldn't send him away with a few more copper coins. He reached out and grabbed his clothes, and said with a smile, "So I just searched for it, but I found a scholar. In this case, when I was just strolling around , I bought a few boxes of pastries, and gave a box to my little brother, which is the fate of our acquaintance."

Seeing that the young man was about to evade again, Jia Lian stuffed the things into his hands, turned around and left without refusal, and disappeared into the crowd in the blink of an eye.

The young man was stunned for a moment, then came back to look at the paper bag in his hand, it was Bazhen Pavilion, a famous dim sum shop in Yangzhou City.His food is famous for its delicious food, but the price is really expensive. A box of dim sum costs two or three taels of silver. Never bought one.

It was originally a good intention to help, but now it has cost Zhaominghou even more, and I don't know if I can repay him or not in the future.The young man sighed helplessly, so he had no choice but to carry the paper bag to the Lin family to spread the word without mentioning it.

Jia Lian found the person who sent the message, and went into a newly opened restaurant in Yangzhou City by himself.

The name of this restaurant is Tianyilou. There is a small three-story building in the front, but there is a large garden-like location in the back. It is divided into elegant rooms by the host's house, which is quite elegant amidst the flowers and trees.Because of the ingenuity, the dishes in the store are complete and delicious, and the prices are only moderate, but it has made its own reputation in Yangzhou city.

Jia Lian strolled in, and said to Xiao Er, "Is the Xiangnuan Pavilion in the backyard still available? I heard people say that it has a beautiful scenery there. I want to have dinner there today."

The little girl's eyes narrowed, and then she said with a smile: "I think I heard it wrong. Our family does not have an elegant room like Xiangnuan Pavilion. However, there is Xiangqing Pavilion, but it is still empty, and the scenery is really good. Please come inside!"

After finishing speaking, the waiter shouted loudly: "Xiangqingge elegant room, one guest, serve tea!"

Immediately, a graceful girl came over gracefully, leaned slightly towards Jia Lian and said, "Please come with my concubine."

Jia Lian nodded and followed her, following her to the private room in the backyard of the restaurant.

And the group of people who had been following Jia Lian saw him enter the first floor of the sky, and followed him in.

Xiao Er smiled and went forward to greet the guests: "Guests, what do you want to eat? The shop just bought a batch of river fish today, and the taste is very delicious. In addition, frying, steaming, stewing and roasting, the chef in the shop They can all come."

One of them threw a silver ingot over and said in a low voice: "Where is that noble young man who came in just now? Where did he go? That is our young master. He ran away from home because of a quarrel with the master. Our wife specially ordered us to follow behind." , to keep the young master safe."

The little boy grabbed the silver, smiled so much that he couldn't see his teeth, and said flatteredly: "Thank you for the rewards, the master just entered the private room in the backyard, and someone has already followed to wait on you. Don't worry, we will wait for you every day." The pavilion is the most law-abiding and safest place, you don't have to worry about the safety of the master."

These people didn't give up, and asked again: "Private room? How far is the distance between private room and private room? Our wife ordered us not to let the young master out of our sight."

Xiao Er showed a look of embarrassment, but for the sake of the silver ingot, he still replied in a low voice: "It's not far or near, it's only about three feet away, but there are small bridges and flowing water in the middle, rockery and vegetation, so it's hard to see the guests from other places. If you want a small one, you can arrange the nearest private room, but at this price..."

The people in front of them had contempt in their eyes, but they still took out another ingot of gold and threw it to the little girl: "Then arrange the nearest private room for us, remember not to talk nonsense to anyone, our young master is a thin-skinned Those who know will be annoyed."

The waiter in the shop narrowed his eyes with a smile, and nodded again and again: "I understand, I understand, you guys don't worry."

After all, the waiter in the store turned his head to look at his companion, and said with a smile: "Hu Zi, watch carefully, I will lead these guests to the backyard, and I will be back in a while."

The man named Huzi also smiled and nodded, patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Shuanzi, I'm here."

The waiter respectfully took the passerby to the backyard, and chose the Chunnuan Pavilion next to Xiangqing Pavilion, which was indeed the closest to Xiangqing Pavilion.

Xiangqing Pavilion is above a pool of running water, but in an octagonal pavilion, surrounded by lotus buds, which cannot block the view.The scenery here is really good, the water surface is clear and round, and the small lotus is just showing its sharp corners, which is quite a scene of late spring.

When this group of people came over, they immediately saw Jia Lian sitting in the pavilion and ordering food from a young girl, and beside him was a beautiful maid serving tea cloth and snacks.There was nothing unusual about this scene, and the stalkers felt more relieved, it seemed that they really came to eat.

But when they actually came to the Chunnuan Pavilion, everyone's faces were not very good-looking. One of them growled, "What place did you choose! The rockery in the middle completely blocks the view, how can we look at the young master!"

The little girl shivered in fright, and said anxiously: "This, this is indeed the closest private room to Xiangqing Pavilion. If you don't believe me, take a look. The place next to it is at least seven or eight feet away. It is also lush with flowers and trees. When the restaurant was first designed, our host specially designed it so that we could not look directly at the private rooms next to it, originally for the sake of the privacy of our guests.”

These people looked around, and it was true. Although they were still depressed, because they were too close to Jia Lian, they couldn't keep getting angry.

One of the bearded men smiled reassuringly at his companion, and then said to the little girl, "So that's the case, but we misunderstood the little brother, so we chose here."

The waiter shook his body and waved his hands: "It's okay, it's okay, you guys have a look, what do you want to eat, there are a lot of delicious food in our building."

After all, he took out a menu from his body and handed it to these people to order.

They were not interested in ordering food, so it was the man with the beard who said, "It's our first time to come to the first floor of the sky, little brother, just watch and order a few dishes, and choose the ones that are good at your restaurant."

Seeing this, the waiter wiped off his sweat, and after a while, a beautiful girl came over with a tea tray, poured tea and water for them, and served them very attentively.

After everyone drank tea, the girl asked with a soft smile: "Guest officials, the guests in the private room can enjoy the music for free, qin, pipa, shengxiao and flute are all acceptable. I don't know how many would like to hear What, the slave family should go down and let the sisters get ready."

The men glanced at each other, seeing the beauty of the girl, they became interested in the sister she was talking about.

But thinking about something to come out this time, they finally reluctantly refused: "We brothers can talk freely, we don't need people to perform, and we don't need to keep people to wait after the dishes are served. Let's go down."

The girl was not annoyed, she still smiled and left.

But next to it, Xiangqing Pavilion where Jia Lian was staying, was playing a melodious tune at this moment, presumably he never refused this beauty's performance.

The faces of these people turned dark for a moment, seeing no one around, they quietly walked to the side of the rockery, and looked into the small pavilion through the gaps in the trees.I saw Jia Lian shaking his head and appreciating the music with a full face, and there were two beautiful girls on the opposite side.

One person plays the piano, one person sings, the sound of the piano is melodious, the singing voice is melodious, coupled with the cool breeze, it is indeed the enjoyment of the gods.

"Damn it, didn't you say that the Marquis of the Jia family loves his wife and children the most, and doesn't even have a concubine room in the mansion? Why is it that now that his aunt is in danger, he has leisure and elegance, shopping, and Listen to the song!"

The other person snorted coldly and said with a sneer: "There are too many fame-seekers, and there are not many of them. Zuo is just gaining a good reputation. Do you believe it?"

These people scolded Jia Lian and saw that he was only listening to the music quietly, so they went to sit down at the table and stopped watching him provoke him.

On the other side, ever since Jia Lian said the word Xiang Nuan, the shopkeeper in the shop looked up at him.Afterwards, whether it was the maid who led the way, the waiter who ordered food, or even the girl who was playing and singing, they were all Jia Lian's own staff.

This Tianyi Pavilion is one of Jia Lian's strongholds in Yangzhou City, and is responsible for collecting news about Jiangnan for Jia Lian.

And the connection code was Xiang Nuange.
