Tom was out, on his way to the front to prepare for the funeral.Daiyu was leaning against the bed, feeling exhausted, a room full of girls stood there, no matter how she looked at her, she felt very annoyed: "Let's all go out."

Thin quilts were piled up by the feet, unable to cover even one foot.If my mother sees it, she will think again and again: "My little ancestor, why don't you cherish yourself? If you have any illness or pain, aren't you gouging out my flesh? Quickly cover it, Go and make a bowl of thick ginger soup, go and get rid of the cold. If you are not obedient again, be careful and I will tell your father to beat you."

Thinking of Jia Min's daily nagging, Daiyu couldn't stop crying.

From today on, she is a motherless child.

There is no one who hugs her at night and tells her little stories and hums songs, no one gently combs her hair and says she wants to make jewelry for her, no one patiently teaches her this and that up.

Thinking of Jia Min's warmth when she was there, and thinking of losing this person in the future, Daiyu felt a big tear in her heart.

A person lay on the bed and wept silently.

The sun gradually went to the west, and Daiyu could hardly keep her eyes open: "Come here."

The mothers and maids all came in, looking at Daiyu's red and swollen eyes, they were so frightened that their hearts jumped. If the uncle saw this, they might not survive.

"Wash your face and take care of your eyes so that people won't see it." Daiyu tried her best to suppress the howling sadness in her heart, and tried her best to stabilize and strengthen herself.

After listening to the order, the girls and women prepared their own toiletries. After a long time of tossing around, Daiyu could barely see: "Go outside and see how the funeral preparations are going? What are brother and dad doing now? Tell the kitchen to wait The soup is ready."

Huan Lang went out and ordered two second-class maids.When I came back after a while, I led her back to Daiyu: "Miss, the funeral has been prepared outside, and guests will come to the door tomorrow. The uncle is still patrolling around and sent two restless ones out, and the rest is fine." Yes. The master has been in the study, and sister Cuiwei, who is serving in the study, said that the master has met some guests today. The cook has already ordered people to prepare the ginseng soup, and the woman in the cook asked how to prepare the dinner for the evening and where to prepare it. "

"Understood, go to the front to invite brother and father, and the dinner will be served in the main room." Daiyu said.

The three of them ate silently in the main room, and the girl cleaned up.Lin Ruhai got up and wanted to go back to the study, Daiyu stood up and said, "Daddy."

Lin Ruhai turned around and looked at her daughter with a sad face.Daiyu couldn't hide the sobs in her tone: "Daddy, please take good care of yourself."

"Go back with your brother, the funeral ceremony is strict, but you are still young, don't hurt yourself, make your mother sad, it's not beautiful. Go, daddy knows." Daiyu's paleness made Lin Ruhai feel uneasy , It's just that it's an eventful time now, and I can't take care of everything. Fortunately, there is Tom, which makes Lin Ruhai feel relieved.

"For daddy." Daiyu and Tom saluted behind Lin Ruhai.

Lin Ruhai went out, and Tom helped Daiyu back to Daiyu's courtyard.Daiyu went to wash and wash, and Tom talked to Ji Cui outside: "Go to father's study and tell Cuiwei one or two, now is the mourning period, father is sad, and persuades father to rest early and take care of father's body more. Let her and the study The little servant should keep an eye on her, and take care of her more thoughtfully than usual."

Only Cui took the order and went.

Daiyu just came out, and Xiaocao helped her into the bed, but she didn't lie down, she just leaned against the head of the bed, and Tom sat on the side: "Why don't you sleep?"

Daiyu didn't speak, just shook her head.

Tom held her hand and sighed: "I'll be here with you, okay? I'll just sleep on your foot." Daiyu's night watch girls usually sleep on the foot, so the foot is still spacious. .

"You are an old man, what kind of girl's footsteps are you sleeping on?" Daiyu spat at him in a low voice.

Tom doesn't care, he is invincible when he is skinless and faceless: "You see, every time I am around you will be much better, even father and mother know that I am your medicine. Believe me, this time there will be no Wrong." As he spoke, Tom supported Daiyu to sleep.

Nong Ping brought two second-class maids to wait on him, changed to Cui and went back to guard the house, and waited on Tom to wash and wash.

Daiyu's bed curtain was raised. Tom lay down and held Daiyu's hand beside the bed: "Sleep well, brother is always here." He also closed his eyes as he said that.

Seeing that the two masters had fallen asleep, Nanny Yang ordered to turn off the lights in the house, and went outside, leaving only Nanny Guo to guard the room.

The room was silent.

Jia Min's funeral is still going on these days, and mourners come and go.

Tom had been kneeling in the mourning hall, but housekeeper Lin suddenly came to invite: "Master, master is waiting for you in the study." Tom stood up, walked behind Lin An, and went all the way to the outer study. When he reached the door, Lin An was naturally guarding the door. Tom went in by himself.

"Father is going to send your sister to Rongguo Mansion of your mother's natal family in Beijing." Lin Ruhai spoke in a low voice, and handed over a letter while speaking.

Tom didn't reply immediately, but looked down at the letter carefully.This letter is from the old lady of Rongguo Mansion, and the content is that she hopes to send Daiyu to Rongguo Mansion to raise her.The reason is also justified, but Tom is not very willing in his heart.It's just that this world cannot allow you to go your way, Tom bowed his head and thought for a long time before asking reluctantly: "My son knows."

"Go." Lin Ruhai dismissed Tom, and buried his head in the official document again.

Tom returned to the mourning hall but did not tell Daiyu about this matter, but still respectfully knelt in front of the mourning hall, and dealt with the affairs of the family, and Jia Lian was also helping everyone to meet and agree.

There is no female mistress in the inner house. Lin Ruhai is already heartbroken for such a big funeral, and he has little to think about. Daiyu is too young, so she can only kneel down. Had to worry about Tom.

And this Jia Lian just arrived a few days ago. He thought that he could have a good taste of the skinny horse when he came to Yangzhou this time, but when he arrived at this place, the family was old and young, and Jia Lian had to stand up for many things. When I came out to help out as my natal family, when I was busy with this matter, I was in a daze, running around every day, falling asleep when I returned to my room, and forgot about the thin horse.

After seeing off the guests for the day, and all the places in the house were settled properly, Tom himself didn't go back to his room to rest, but went to Lin Ruhai's study instead: "Father."

"Come in." Lin Ruhai looked several years older.

"The son has thought about what the father said during the day, but when will he send his sister away?" Tom's face was serious, with a little tiredness between his brows.

Lin Ruhai leaned against the handrail: "When your mother is buried, send her to Beijing."

"It's too urgent. Now that I am busy with my mother's funeral, there is no room to prepare luggage for my sister." Tom was a little surprised and anxious.

Lin Ruhai propped his forehead: "There is no need to prepare anything, just bring a nanny and a girl and let her go with Lian'er."

"Father." Tom was really anxious. Daiyu could be regarded as the one he watched and grew up. In the Lin family, Daiyu really grew up swallowing gold and jade like jewels and treasures. Now she is going to go far away. Bringing a woman and a girl, this little person, not even a fraction of the number of servants who follow Daiyu from her room to the main room on weekdays.How can Tom feel relieved: "How can such two people be enough..."

Before Tom could finish speaking, Lin Ruhai interrupted him: "Why don't I know that this is not enough, it's just that you don't know how your mother died, sending Yu'er to Beijing is a helpless act, how can you bring those Personally go to poke people's eyes."

"Father, I understand. Sending my sister to the capital is a helpless act, but now that my sister is so lonely and sent to the capital, this attitude will inevitably make others think that my sister is an abandoned child. On the other hand, it made my sister’s life difficult in a foreign country and she was easily tortured. This was not my father’s intention.” Tom paused and said, “Since we want to give it away, let’s give it away generously. It should be the treatment of the first daughter of the Lin family. Just a little bit, so as to show the sincerity of the father, and also make others fear the power and not dare to despise the younger sister."

Lin Ruhai looked at Tom, and it took him a long time to let out a sigh of relief: "You are right, you can make arrangements. After your mother is buried and ready, send Yu'er to Beijing. Then you will send her."

"Yes, Father." Tom bowed and turned to leave.
