Stealing Fragrance and Stealing Jade in the Red Chamber

After boarding the boat, Jia Lang met and talked with Lin Daiyu alone on the second day.

"Uncle had a chat with me last night and mentioned something. Although I was happy, I didn't want to force others to be difficult, so I was rude today and wanted to ask my sister what she meant." Jia Lang was a little nervous and carefully observed Lin Daiyu's expression.

Lin Daiyu was slightly annoyed by Jia Lang's stare, but there was a faint sweetness hidden in her heart.

"Cousin Lang, please tell me." Lin Daiyu turned sideways, unwilling to look directly.

"Uncle asked me if I would like to be the son-in-law of the Lin family." At this time, it is still tactful, is it still called a man!

Lin Daiyu just lowered her head, not daring to look at Jia Lang.

"But, I don't know if my sister is willing. If not, I don't want to force my sister because of it. If I am willing... I would like to be a couple for the rest of my life. There will never be a third person between you and me."

Jia Lang knew that Lin Daiyu was prone to overthinking, so talking to Lin Daiyu was not a joke, but rather straightforward.

Lin Daiyu's face was flushed, she covered her face with her sleeves, and retreated behind the screen.

"If you don't want to, you don't have to say it because of love. I'm not that narrow-minded, and I don't want to wrong my sister. If you want... please give me some instructions, so that I can ask my parents to prepare for it.

Today is really rude. Sister Wanwang sees that it is my wish not to be born in the future. Jia Lang stretched out his hand in Lin Daiyu's direction, made a big salute, and left.

Seeing Jia Lang's measured attitude of advancing and retreating, Lin Daiyu became more and more anxious.

Gently touching her face, she was startled by the heat, and immediately wanted to hide in shame.

In the past two months, Jia Lang was diligent every day and brought things over every day.Whether it's a small gadget, or a calligraphy or painting, or a poem, Lin Daiyu often annoys Lin Daiyu for his domineering and rudeness, but she can't bear to read it.

Those poems, hazy and graceful, make Lin Daiyu always unforgettable, and she can't help but think carefully.

Then she unconsciously thought of what Cousin Lang asked her that day, and felt her face burn in panic.Cousin Lang's appearance inevitably came to mind, and he couldn't help but let out a 'pooh' in his heart, but he couldn't help but admit that Cousin Lang's appearance was indeed handsome and tidy.

Comparing him with Baoyu again, he remembered that he was always dressed in red, and he was not shy about it, so he unconsciously favored Jia Lang.

Although this Baoyu understands girls, he is young and ignorant, and he is romantic and passionate.When she left, Baoyu was clinging to her aunt's sister Bao, and she felt that Baoyu was too young to be entrusted to her.

Thinking of Cousin Lang's care for her, his meticulous care, and respect for her, a little sweetness rose in his heart.

"My little ancestor, don't stay in the air for too long, and freeze carefully." Both Sangzhu and Yuliu received Jia Lang's instructions, and they naturally thought about it.

This Miss Lin, I'm afraid she will become Grandma Lang San!

"Sangzhu, how many years have you been serving Cousin Lang?" Lin Daiyu saw Sangzhu and suddenly remembered that Sangzhu was Jia Lang's personal maid.

"Not much, only three years. The person who served the third master was also called Sangzhu, but that person was a little guilty and refused to obey the discipline, so he sold her. I was already 12 years old when I served the third master. I still remember the first The scene of seeing the third master for the first time.

Although the third master is young, he is extremely dignified. He gave a lecture to our four new servants, but we were so frightened that our legs were weak.

At that time, the third master said that if he served well, he would choose a good husband for us in the future, and marry us off in a beautiful manner.

We were the size of a girl at that time, when we heard this, our brains became muddled, our faces burned, and we just felt that this young man was so frivolous.

It was only later that I found out that the third master wanted to stop our delusional thoughts from the very beginning, and told us not to have those shameful thoughts.

Although there are many rules in serving the third master, others are very generous.He always dresses and washes by himself, we only prepare the third master's daily clothes and outfits for traveling.There are some small mistakes, and the third master doesn't care too much, just let us be careful in the future.

At first, the third master played with the second master Lian, and later played with the second master Bao.

The third master didn't like reading at first, and then the third master accidentally saw the old lady scolding the eldest wife once, and heard the old woman gossip.Since then, the third master began to study hard.

He knew that the higher his status, the others would not underestimate the eldest wife.When the third master was not Master Chen's closed disciple, the mansion didn't take the eldest wife seriously, but now you see, who doesn't support the eldest wife. " Sangzhu said, bringing Lin Daiyu a cup of hot honey water.

This honey was specially found by Jia Lang for Lin Daiyu, and the honey was raised by beekeepers.Very beneficial to women.

"I'm just asking, why do you say so many things." Lin Daiyu felt a little shy when she thought about how blatantly she asked about the foreigner.

"Girl, don't hide it from us. We all know that the third master looked so red that day. His ears were so red. In these years, I have never seen the third master so embarrassed.

These days, he is more concerned about everything, and the calligraphy and paintings that are delivered every day are even drawn by the third master himself.Every time those outsiders come to beg, the third master always refuses all of them, not even a single sum.

Girl, don't think that I praise our third master, the third master treats you very well.As for the honey, it was the beekeeper that the third master personally went to find in the deep mountains and old forests. He also heard that ordinary honey does not support women, so he ordered people to plant a forest of Sophora japonica, Osmanthus fragrans, etc.

He also specially asked the doctor to prepare it. There are snow lotus, rose, lily, and ginseng in it. If you really don't care, how can you take so much effort.

Does the third master look bad?I don't think the second master Bao may be comparable.Moreover, the third master is still self-reliant, does not rely on his family or parents, and studies by himself, so he will definitely pass the provincial examination this time.

What's more, the eldest wife is also good to you. Every time I see you, with that appearance, I wish I could cry all the future tears for you. "Sang Zhu is now being praised by order, so naturally he can say as much as he has in his heart.

At the end of the talk, she also made fun of Mrs. Xing, but Lin Daiyu's face, which was ashamed to boil water, suddenly stopped laughing.

"You narrow-minded ghost, you must ask Cousin Lang to listen carefully to this." Lin Daiyu stretched out her hand and squeezed Sangzhu's delicate mouth.

"Good girl, please forgive me." Seeing that Lin Daiyu was not angry, Sang Zhu smiled and begged for mercy.

After Lin Daiyu and Sangzhu laughed and quarreled, they lay down on the chaise longue and rested for a while.

Recalling the previous scenes, and remembering that Jia Lang even asked her about this matter, the more I think about it, the more I am partial to Jia Lang.

The nectar is light, but she finds it sweet and greasy.

Lin Daiyu didn't answer, and Jia Lang gave gifts day by day, neither meeting nor sending messages, just keeping silent.

It was not until the night before disembarking that Sangzhu knocked on Jia Lang's door with a smile.

When getting off the boat the next day, Lin Daiyu turned her head and saw Jia Lang smiling, with a red purse embroidered with twin flowers tied around his waist.

He quickly withdrew his gaze, just got into the sedan chair, and ignored Jia Lang any more.

When Jia Lang got the letter, he didn't go to see his ancestors, so he went to meet his father in name.

"Father, I have something I want to talk to you about." After Jia Lang was elected, Jia Amnesty also held Jia Lang in high regard. After all, Erfang didn't have a child as promising as Jia Lang.

"What's the matter?" Jia Amnesty put on his father's airs and was in a good mood.

"A few days ago when I went to Jinling, I took Sister Lin back to the Lin Mansion by the way. Mrs. Lin is the Xunyan Yushi, the number one official in Suzhou. I must ask for advice on my trip.

Uncle thanked our Jia family for taking care of sister Lin, talked to me about the officialdom, and introduced me to several colleagues, including one of the chief examiners of the rural examination.

Uncle Lin informed me of this township examination immediately.I was naturally grateful, so I worshiped the teacher and saluted the teacher.

When I was leaving, Uncle Lin asked me if I would like to be the son-in-law of the Lin family, and I naturally couldn't say no, so I agreed.Father, this is what I want to say this time.

I want to ask my father to come forward and propose marriage for me. " Jia Lang said slowly.

Jia Amnesty pressed his chin, thinking to himself.

"Father, my uncle is going back to Beijing to report on his duties, and I think he can go up a level. Besides, my uncle is the censor of 'yan'." Jia Lang emphasized the word 'salt', and Jia Amnesty immediately agreed.

These days, salt is under the exclusive control of the imperial court, which is extremely lucrative, and worth a million dollars a year is nothing more than a trivial matter.

"Besides, my uncle asked Sister Lin to go back this time because he was seriously ill. If he is ill, the Lin family must belong to Sister Lin. If he recovers and has a second-rank official as his father-in-law, the child will naturally thrive in the future.

When he becomes a Gongsheng in the future, there are so many marquises in Kyoto, which one can compare with his father.Your father teaches his son well, and he has a second-rank minister as his in-laws, so the second wife will shut you up even if he flatters you. "

Jia Lang added the last fire, and he knew the matter was done just by looking at his father.

"So, of course it's great. I'll go back to the old lady and talk about it." Jia Amnesty was told by Jia Lang, and he thought that Lin Ruhai would be his in-laws in the future, and everyone who played with him would not be envious.

"Father, I heard that the old lady wants to ration sister Lin to Baoyu. If the second wife succeeds, then our first wife..." Jia Lang was afraid that Jia She would gossip, so he didn't take this matter to heart.

"What?!" Jia Amnesty got up immediately upon hearing this.

"Nowadays, the old lady prefers Baoyu. With Uncle Lin's help, high school will be very easy in the future. And I heard from the new emperor that the new emperor will enshrine the concubine in the harem after he ascends the throne. Our eldest sister may also be on the list. famous."

Jia Lang's last sentence was undoubtedly not a thunderbolt.

"Father, don't be too happy. If the eldest sister becomes a concubine, we will not have the status of our eldest house in the mansion in the future. If Baoyu marries younger sister Lin, I'm afraid that the old ancestor will be more partial, and let the elder sister order Baoyu to become the prince." , then our eldest room..."

Jia Lang didn't say the whole thing, let Jia Shen make up his mind, but it made him even more flustered.

"This is absolutely impossible. I'll go find the old lady. Your uncle wants you to be his son-in-law, not Baoyu. You call your mother and follow me to see the old lady." wait.

"Yes, mother is at the old ancestor's place." Jia Lang wrote a letter a long time ago and came back to talk to Mrs. Xing. As long as it is beneficial to Jia Lang, Mrs. Xing is extremely happy.

Lin Daiyu looked weak, even if she couldn't lay eggs, would she still be able to marry a concubine? She wasn't worried at all.

Of course, she won't say this at this time, and wait until later.
