The Fate of the Red Chamber

Chapter 28: Abandonment

Jia Lian was frightened to death yesterday. Hearing that there was an imperial decree, Jia Lian thought it was a reward for Lin Ruhai, thinking that he would take this opportunity to show off, and deliberately stood at the front.After proclaiming the imperial decree, Jia Lian was almost bluffed to death. How could this happen? Didn't the court always rely on Uncle Lin?

Cold sweat drenched his underwear, and Jia Lian retreated in a corner inadvertently, fearing that they would implicate the Rongguo Mansion.Hearing that many people are still protecting the Lin family at this time, secretly cursing them as a bunch of idiots, they are either crazy or stupid to fight against the queen mother and emperor for a Lin family.

After everyone left, Jia Lian went back to the guest room, circling around like ants on a hot pot, what should I do, if I didn't get any money, there is a very high possibility of being implicated.The only plan for now is to leave the Lin family as soon as possible. It's just that it's not easy to explain to the old lady when you turn around.

It's not that he's going or that he's not, Jia Lian was so panicked that he didn't sleep all night, and he didn't go to offer incense to Lin Ruhai the next day, he just sighed in the room.Just when Jia Lian was at a loss, someone came to the house. He was the second wife's confidant and stayed with Zhou Rui.

The two of them didn't have time to greet each other, so Jia Lian hurriedly tore open the letter sent by Mrs. Wang and scanned it carefully, oh, this is a great joy, the eldest daughter of their family, Yuan Chun, was made a noble concubine.You have to know that Yuanchun has been a female historian for five years since she was selected into the palace at the age of 13.I thought I could only wait until I left the palace to find someone to marry, but at this age, two years older than the emperor, I can be conferred the title of noble concubine. Don't you think this is the virtue of the ancestors that the royal family valued?

Jia Lian was in high spirits, as if he was an uncle of the country, imagining that those people he had met with every day would flatter him fiercely when he returned to Beijing, and he was very happy.

Looking further down, it turned out that the news of the raid on the Lin family had already spread in the capital. Mrs. Wang strictly ordered Jia Lian not to interfere in the affairs of the Lin family, so as not to cause trouble to the upper body, and more likely to implicate the empress in the palace.Just return to Beijing as soon as possible, this is also the idea of ​​the old lady.

In fact, it is true that you should not meddle in the affairs of the Lin family and return to the capital as soon as possible, but the last sentence is half-truth and half-false.After all, Mother Jia couldn't let her only granddaughter go through such hardships, and it was not their Jia family's face that Daiyu was a girl. Jade was taken back to Beijing.This is not a difficult task, thinking that Daiyu is just a girl's family, it's not worth embarrassing her, and what's more, there is no reason not to let her go because of the face of the Rongguo Mansion.

But Mother Jia forgot one thing. Mrs. Wang wished that Daiyu would die in the south of the Yangtze River. How could she agree to keep a penniless daughter of a prisoner in her home to seduce her son.

Naturally, Jia Lian didn't know whether it was true or not, and it was like getting a reassurance when he got the letter. He told Zhou Rui to watch the servants pack up their things, and then he went to bid farewell to Daiyu.

In the small flower hall, Jia Lian got a little impatient waiting, only then did he hear two figures in white clothes, one tall and one short, come out of the door curtain.The short one is naturally Daiyu, her whole body is white, without any color, and there are only two white beaded flowers on her temples, soft and delicate, showing more and more sorrowful charm.Jia Lian couldn't help but secretly lamented that Baoyu had no blessings. Such a romantic and tactful beauty would end up in a miserable life. If she didn't die in prison in the future, she would be bought by someone. It's a pity.

"Second Brother Lian, what's the matter with looking for our siblings this time? I ask Second Brother Lian to forgive me for my poor hospitality recently." Mo Han didn't want Daiyu to talk too much with such a shameless person, so he asked about something serious first.

Jia Lian didn't bother about whether Mo Han's tone was appropriate or not. Thinking of the joy on Concubine Yuan Chunfeng's face, she couldn't hide it even if she wanted to, so she said haha: "Don't hide it from my cousins, I just got the news today that your eldest sister was arrested. I have been made a noble concubine, and the family is in a hurry, urging me to go back. I think my cousins ​​are so capable, and everything in the house is handled properly, and there is nothing I need, so I can only accuse you. Hurry up and go back.

Don't worry about Uncle Lin's matter, I will ask the master to deal with it a little when I return to Beijing, I believe Uncle Lin's grievances will be cleared up soon. "

Mo Han knew that Yuan Chun would be a concubine, but he just sneered secretly, saying that he was not afraid of hurting you if he said it nicely.

Daiyu was taken aback for a moment, and after a while she realized that her elder sister was referring to Yuan Chun, and she didn't like or dislike her.Although she is simple, it doesn't mean she doesn't have a plan in her heart. She was not in a hurry to go back when the emperor died, but this time she was in a hurry, probably because she didn't want to have anything to do with us.What kind of talk is just to coax people. I didn't see you say a word yesterday, but I can still count on you after you go back.

It is impossible to say that there are no complaints. The Lin family originally had no direct relatives. In Daiyu's heart since she was a child, the closest family to her is the maternal ancestral family that her mother said, and that was her mother's former family.Later, Daiyu lived in Jia's house for three years. Although she was unhappy occasionally, she regarded it as her second home, and even regarded them as relatives other than her father.

Now that something happened to the Lin family, they left it so clear, how could it not make her feel sad? Could it be that the so-called flesh and blood relatives are like this, is the grandmother's love just the abandonment of herself at a critical moment?Daiyu was so angry that Xiaohong flushed and couldn't say a word. Although she didn't care what Jia Lian could do for them, she couldn't accept such a straightforward abandonment for a while.

Mo Han tightened Daiyu's hand, and looked at her with concern, fearing that she would slip into the corner of her head if she couldn't think about it for a while.Daiyu felt her brother's intentions, forced a smile, and forced herself to say: "Second brother Lian's words are reasonable, so I won't stay with second brother Lian any longer. There is only one thing I need to ask second brother Lian for help. Although Zijuan has been serving you I, after all, is the maid of Jia's mansion, let her go back with Lian's second brother, and just take care of her on the way."

Jia Lian thought it was something, and it was not a word for such a trivial matter, which only reassured Daiyu.When it comes to this point, there is no need to put on airs anymore. Jia Lian left after resigning for a while without seeing him off.

Daiyu Mohan didn't bother to send him off, so it's better.Originally, she intended to ask him to bring some things back to honor Jiamu, but Daiyu finally gave up because of unusual times.

Mo Han called Xia Cheng and ordered him: "Send Young Biao to us well, and prepare as much food as you can. You can't make Young Biao wronged." Xia Cheng accepted the order.
