The Fate of the Red Chamber
Chapter 11: Passing the Message
Zijuan led her to a remote place, and asked with dissatisfaction: "Mama is also confused, what are you doing here so early in the morning, luckily I saw it, if someone else might think it's a thief. I just said something indiscriminately, come out and have a look, I don’t think Mammy is still there. Our own family is used to doing what we want, but this is the Lin Mansion, Mammy should be more restrained, otherwise Second Grandma will not forgive you if you lose face .”
It turned out that Zijuan thought that Nanny Han had lived in the outer courtyard for a long time, and heard that the Lin family's courtyard was elegant and extraordinary, so she sneaked in to take a tour early in the morning when there were few people, but met Daiyu and others, and was blocked halfway.
"Oh, my Aunt Zijuan, you think I'm confused, but it's because the second master has something to tell me. I can't see the girl, so I can only inquire and wait for the girl here. I only hope to see the girl. It's over for the second master." This Han Nanny is not a courageous person, she just stood there all morning on an empty stomach, not counting starvation, but also frightened, her face was pale with fright at this time, seeing Zicuckoo It's like seeing a life-saving straw.
"See me, I just serve the girl, I have nothing to do with the second master, what does the second master want from me?" Zijuan was very surprised when she heard Han Nanny's words, she and Jia Lian never even said a word Well, what does the second master of Lian want to find for himself?
Nanny Han was afraid that someone would find that she was in a place she shouldn't be, and she just wanted to finish her work quickly and go back, without saying a word, she said softly: "The second master asked me to ask the girl, do you know that the person in the Lin family Who is the young master? The second master is very anxious about this matter, if the girl knows, she can tell the slave so that the slave can go back to the second master soon."
Why?Why is Second Master Lian so eager to inquire about Mr. Lin, and don't they all know?Zijuan was puzzled, lowered his tone and asked, "Don't you all know who Mr. Lin is?"
"Of course not, otherwise the second master would have asked me to ask the girl!" Nanny Han was full of impatience, really, if we knew why we came to ask you, wouldn't we be full.
It was so strange, Zijuan thought that the news that Mr. Lin wanted to adopt Mr. Lin had already spread throughout the mansion, and people in his own family didn't want to know about it.This made her wonder whether she should say it or not, and Li Lian's second master didn't know that it might be because the Lin family didn't want to spread the matter to the outside world, but after a few days the ceremony will be held, who else would not know.
After all, Zijuan is the girl of Jia's family, and Jia Lian is her master, and she has to say what the master asked; she guessed that the second master Lian would know soon. It's not a big mistake if she said it.With a lot of twists and turns in my heart, I just leaned closer to Nanny Han and said in a low voice: "He is the uncle of the Lin family, and Master Lin plans to adopt Mr. Lin as his son in a few days. This is not a secret, we all know it. "
In fact, Zijuan didn't intend to betray Mo Han, she didn't think too much about it, she just thought that Jia Lian was hanging around all day and was too inattentive about Lin's affairs, that's why she didn't even hear the news that everyone knew about.She told Nanny Han that she wanted Jia Lian to prepare for such a big event, and the Jia family could not express it, and don't make a fuss about gifts and the like.
Nanny Han was really taken aback, but it didn't have much to do with her after all, she hurriedly said goodbye to Zijuan and went to the guest room, Zijuan turned back to Daiyu Courtyard to pick up things.
Jia Lian was anxious about this matter, and unexpectedly did not go out today, but waited in the room for news from Nanny Han.In the past few days, she was used to the famous prostitutes in Yangzhou, so staying in the mansion at this time is boring and unbearable, she just chatted with her confidant Wang'er every sentence, and saw Nanny Han enter the yard at a glance.
"How is it, what does Zijuan say?" Jia Lian asked immediately without waiting for Nanny Han to salute him.
Han Nanny gave a blessing, and said in her mouth: "Back to the second master, Zijuan said that Master Lin intends to adopt that young master as his son, and everyone in the Lin family knows about this matter."
Jia Lian heard that it was like a thunderbolt in the sky, and he was ordered to work hard to send Daiyu back, because he just wanted to take the opportunity to make some money.According to the rules, the general adoptive person needs to be a member of the Lin family, but the three generations of the Lin family are single, and there is no close family at all, so Jia Lian never thought that Lin Ruhai would adopt one person to inherit the Lin family.In this way, the most Daiyu can get is a dowry, so isn't his busy work in vain?
It's okay for me to say that I just came here for nothing. Anyway, the second steward of the Lin family is responsible for the daily expenses, but how to explain it when I go back, the second wife will not be able to pass it.This Lin Ruhai is really too ruthless.
Jia Lian walked around the room in circles, unable to do anything, stomping her feet anxiously.The old ancestor wanted to promise Sister Lin to Baoyu, probably because he really loved Sister Lin, but the Lin family's property was the most important thing. I don't know if the old lady still insisted on Sister Lin after getting the news?How could I dare to decide these matters privately, but it is so far away from Beijing, it is estimated that the news has not yet reached the mansion, and the general situation is already settled.
There are so many threads, the old lady, the second wife, Uncle Lin, and Lin Mohan, making Jia Lian feel like a mess, with no idea at all.
Seeing that the master was anxious, Wang'er couldn't help coming up with an idea: "Second master, don't worry. I don't understand these principles, but I just think that the young master Lin may not be a member of the Lin clan. Master Lin insists on adopting him. He, there may be many people in the family who are opposed to it. It is not certain whether this matter will be successful. Moreover, this matter is very involved, and it has to be decided by the old lady. I am wronged by the second master."
Jia Lian nodded as he listened, Wang'er made some sense in what he said, if Mo Han was not from the Lin family, the Lin family might not be able to pass.What's more, I'm just running errands for others, so the old lady must decide on such a big matter, so as not to be blamed for nothing.
After thinking about it, he smiled and pinched Wang'er's pretty face and spat: "Stinky boy, there are two tricks. Of course you have to stay here and go and call Zhao'er."
But an hour later, Zhao'er hurriedly left the Lin residence.
It turned out that Zijuan thought that Nanny Han had lived in the outer courtyard for a long time, and heard that the Lin family's courtyard was elegant and extraordinary, so she sneaked in to take a tour early in the morning when there were few people, but met Daiyu and others, and was blocked halfway.
