[Red Mansion] The Wife of Powerful Officials

How could the concierge dare to let He Shen wait outside the door, a servant had already come out and led He Shen inside.

There is still a long way to go from the main gate of Rongguo Mansion to Jiazhengyuan Erli.

As he walked, He Shen gradually calmed down.

Liu Quan walked beside him, and he looked up carefully at He Shen's face from time to time.

I saw that He Shen's expression was light for a while, and seemed to be deep in thought for a while.

Liu Quan didn't dare to disturb him, so he hurriedly closed his eyes and didn't squint any more.

"He Shilang." A servant next to him uttered a voice, waking He Shen up from his contemplation.

He Shen raised his head and saw Jia Zheng hastily wrapped up his outer shirt and was coming out of the small study.Seeing his figure, Jia Zheng walked faster.

"Why did Brother Zhizhai come here at this time?" Jia Zheng described it as a little embarrassed: "I just fell asleep in the study, but I neglected Brother Zhizhai."

"It doesn't matter." He Shen's face was indifferent at this time, making it impossible to see through his mind.

Jia Zheng led people into the hall.

The maids serve tea carefully.

In fact, Jia Zheng's first reaction was also the same, could it be that Baoyu offended Heshen again?But after thinking about it carefully, he really couldn't think of how he could offend Heshen.

Jia Zhengzheng was in a trance, and He Shen asked, "Are the people from Lin'anbo Mansion here?"

Jia Zheng was taken aback, and asked, "Brother Zhizhai also knows about this?"

"En." When He Shen responded, his expression didn't change at first glance, but if you looked closely, you could actually find that his face was tense.

Jia Zheng's mind was not subtle, and he didn't notice it at all.

He said: "My sister-in-law already knew about this matter, she is an only daughter, and she didn't agree to the Lin'an Manor's request to marry her."

"Then what about Lin'an Bo Mansion?"

"It means that I will bring a marriage proposal with me tomorrow, and then I will ask the old lady and sister-in-law to nod."

He Shen was slightly lost in thought.

Seeing that he stopped talking suddenly, Jia Zheng felt that it was really weird.

But he didn't dare to disturb He Shen, so he had to accompany him to calm down.

He Shen knew that his performance was too abnormal.

As Liu Quan said.

Maybe Daiyu has her own ideas in her heart?Perhaps the eldest son of Bo Lin'an just has no talent, but he really loves his wife?

After all, it is thousands of times better than Baoyu.

If he is really worried, but as long as he is around for a day, who would dare to neglect Daiyu?

But he still felt in his heart that he couldn't do it.

Looking around the entire capital, I couldn't find anyone who was worthy of Daiyu.

Thinking about the heartbeat before coming, the thoughts in the mind are disturbed.

Already there was an answer that he had never thought of.

When he first met Daiyu, she was just a little girl, with a short stature and round cheeks that had not yet grown out.

To him at that time, she was really just the Crimson Pearl Fairy in "A Dream of Red Mansions".

Fascinating and sympathetic.

But after all, it is just a character in the book, always far away.

Later, he had more contact with her.

The girl had already jumped out of a book, and it was vividly stuck in his heart.It's just that he has never met anyone he likes in his previous life, and he has never thought about it, so he just holds Daiyu in his palm.

It wasn't until just now, when he stepped into the Rongguo Mansion, that the road was neither short nor long, that he couldn't help thinking carefully.

The more he put Daiyu in the highest position in his heart, the more careful he thought about it.

Such a thing is not child's play.

He never wanted to be like Baoyu, who fell in love at first sight, but it was all wishful thinking without any consideration of consequences.Afterwards, it was Daiyu who suffered the most.

In his previous life, He Shen had read many of Daiyu's fan works.Most of the protagonists are just pitiful for Daiyu, seeing her suffering under the eaves of the Rongguo Mansion, and blame the Rongguo Mansion for raising her to be petty, so they say to themselves that they want to save her.

The male roles assigned to Daiyu are either moved by Daiyu's beauty, or they don't want to see Daiyu cry, but rarely mention other aspects.He only confuses pity for her with love.

He Shen has always looked down on such behavior.

If you don't really love and pity her, you will see her good and bad in your eyes.

That's just using my own wishful thinking to humiliate sister Lin.

"Second Master, there's another person coming to Lin'an Bo's residence." The young servant walked quickly all the way into the door and said with a bow.

"But with Lilly?"

"Exactly."

Jia Zheng couldn't help but said in a low voice: "The Lin'an House is in a hurry, and it seems like they can't wait to settle this matter today."

He Shen collected his thoughts at this moment, and said in a low voice, "Why don't you invite Lin Yushi and Daiyu here."

Jia Zheng was slightly surprised: "Is this appropriate?"

"You should also ask Daiyu to know about it."

"The parents' order and the matchmaker's words are fine, why bother..." Jia Zheng stopped talking under He Shen's calm gaze when he said this.

"Invite the second wife, too. She is Daiyu's aunt, and she can also act as a mother." He Shen said.

Mother Jia...

Of course he would not let Jia Zheng invite him.

In the original book, Jia's mother wanted Daiyu to marry Baoyu early in the morning, but when she met Xue Biao's younger sister Baoqin later, she fell in love with her, so she wanted Baoqin to marry Baoyu.

In Jia Mu's mind, the granddaughter is like a commodity.

It is the best when it suits her heart.

When it didn't suit her, she left it behind.

He Shen hated her in his heart.

Naturally, she didn't want her to come in and stir up the muddy water at this time, and show her willingness to let Baoyu marry Daiyu in front of a group of people.

Jia Zheng followed He Shen's advice.

Not long after, Mrs. Wang arrived first and took her seat.

She couldn't figure out what was going on in her mind, she just looked at He Shen secretly.

Could it be...

Could it be that this and the servant couldn't sit still when he heard that people from Lin'an Bo's mansion came to propose marriage?

Although in this way, it is natural that Xi Chuntong and the servant's younger brother can no longer be married, but for Mrs. Wang, there is no loss, and it is a happy event.

She raised her handkerchief to cover the smile on her lips.

Not long after, Lin Ruhai came in with Daiyu.

Daiyu was wearing a long white embroidered bamboo dress with azure-colored lace and jade hairpins on her head. She looked a little plainer than when she saw her a few days ago, but she still didn't lose her agility.

From the moment she stepped into the door, He Shen's eyes fell on her unconsciously.

He saw her step over the threshold.

Seeing the jade-colored pendant dangling from her ear.

The window paper that had been separating He Shen's heart was pierced in an instant.

Those thoughts and affections that he hadn't paid attention to before, poured out like a monstrous flood, sweeping him into it.

On the contrary, the bottom of my heart suddenly became enlightened.

I don't feel any depression anymore.

He was interested in her.

That's why he made a big splash, taught Baoyu a lesson, and warned Rongguo Mansion.

That's why he didn't show any face to the Lin'anbo mansion, look at that Lin'anbo's son is full of faults.

That's why he remembered the lantern that Daiyu casually mentioned to him a few years ago.

That's why he was more cautious, always afraid of ruining Daiyu's boudoir reputation.

When he went to see off the lantern that day, he felt awkward in front of Daiyu.

It's just that the more love you have, the more you're afraid of offending her.

He Shen's heart turned a thousand times, but no one saw it.

Even Daiyu didn't know it, and He Shen stared at her, so many thoughts rushed through his heart.

Jia Zheng had already recounted He Shen's meaning to Mrs. Wang.

So Mrs. Wang took Daiyu's hand and brought her behind the stone screen to talk.

Daiyu was really confused.

She vaguely heard that the mansion was going to propose marriage to a girl, but she didn't expect that she would be involved in it, after all, she was really not a girl in the Rongguo Mansion.

It's fine for the second uncle and the second aunt to invite her, why is he here?

Daiyu suppressed her thoughts, raised her head, looked at Mrs. Wang and said, "Second Aunt, do you have something to say to me?"

"The Lin'an Boss, do you still remember?"

Great, why are you asking this all of a sudden?

Daiyu recalled and shook her head: "I don't remember."

I really don't remember.

That young master Lin'an stood beside him that day, and he took away all his brilliance, who still remembers what that young master Lin'an looked like?

That Lingyue just glanced at him, didn't she have all her heart on him?

Mrs. Wang said in a low voice: "He came to the mansion to propose a marriage, and he wanted to marry you, and he also asked the Duke of Shanguo to marry him. He will come again with a gift later. I think he likes you very much in his heart, so he wants to marry you." While your father is here, settle this matter."

Daiyu was slightly startled.

We just met once that day.

She couldn't even remember what Uncle Lin'an looked like, but he came to ask her to marry him?

Daiyu really didn't have a good impression of Lingyue, so she was not even interested in Lin'an Bo's eldest son.

Daiyu hurriedly asked, "What did my father say?"

"Your father didn't say anything, but he and the servant came today, but he said that you need to nod your own head. If you like it, that's fine. So he invited you here, and you can look at it later Take a look at Mr. Lin'an Bo."

Daiyu ironed it in her heart.

That brother has always been like this, always putting her feelings first.

"Let's watch from behind the screen," Mrs. Wang said.

Daiyu nodded.

A maid moved a stool.

The two sat down together.

There was only a sound of footsteps approaching outside.

"Madam Lin'an, Lin'an, and young master, please take your seats first."

The three sat down.

The three members of this family were all afraid of Heshen, seeing Heshen at this time, Lin'an Bo secretly sighed, this Heshilang really dotes on the girl of the Lin family, and came here in person.

But on the one hand, he couldn't help being a little scared.

After all, Heshen was expressionless that day, and the voice that said Lingyue was unruly still lingered in his ears.

Obviously he didn't reprimand him too much, but no one wanted to repeat the scene of that day again.

At this time, Mrs. Lin'anbo, to show her importance, said first, "What is Lin Yushi thinking? Our family really likes Miss Lin, so we want to hire her as a daughter-in-law. I even match the characters of the two of them." , they say it’s a match made in heaven.”

Mrs. Lin'an originally wanted to smile all over her face to show her closeness.

But with He Shen at the side, she couldn't squeeze a smile, and she looked a little weird.

This Lin Ruhai was about to open his mouth, but He Shen had already opened his mouth: "You said that the Lin'anbo Mansion really likes Miss Lin, so why are you in a hurry to prepare the betrothal gift in two days, and the horoscope is also matched? What kind of sincerity is the preparation made within the day? I’m afraid that the dowry alone won’t be enough.”

His voice was like gold and jade striking each other, very nice, but also cold.

It's frightening for no reason.

Lin Ruhai was stunned, but also understood that this was the reason.

If it was true as their family said, they valued this matter, so why would they be in such a hurry?

Is it not appropriate to be cautious and take your time?

He didn't give out that horoscope.

How did the Lin'anbo Mansion get it?

Thinking about it carefully, Lin Ruhai was startled.
