Dai Yuxin says

Four dishes and one soup, this simple meal of common people's style, made Shui Jing eat very comfortably, feeling very comfortable and happy.

He felt that this meal was very interesting, and he felt like an old man in a small alley in the capital, with a filial son and daughter-in-law. If there is a little doll around his knees, it will be more enjoyable and full of charm of life .

He secretly sighed in his heart: Life is like this, what a blessing!

Man, it is so strange!

Common people are most eager to admire the life of wealth, luxury, extravagance, extravagance, and feasting, thinking that such a life is the happiest.

The richest and most luxurious home in the world is the emperor's home.

However, the real wealthy and luxurious people yearn for simplicity and tranquility the most. Don't hide yourself all the time, don't wear thick masks all day long, eat three meals a day, eat rough vegetables and light meals, and live a relaxed and simple common people's life.

After lunch, Shui Jing and his son sat in the big flower hall, and Daiyu personally offered tea.

Shui Jing narrowed her eyes leisurely, sipping tea comfortably, and asked with a smile: "Yu'er, your tea is also very good, it has a faint floral fragrance."

Daiyu smiled lightly and said, "My daughter's grandfather liked to study the medical classics handed down by the predecessors very much. I read many medical classics saying that jasmine tea can clear the liver and improve eyesight, produce body fluid and quench thirst, eliminate phlegm and cure dysentery, clear the air Convenience water, expelling wind, curing fistula, strengthening teeth, strengthening energy, strengthening heart, and anti-aging effects can make people prolong life and maintain physical and mental health. Every year when new tea comes out, the father of the court daughter will make some scented tea according to the method of grandfather. The courtiers also learned a little bit."

Shui Jing smiled silently and nodded secretly.Discussed in the abdomen: "You really deserve to be the daughter of the Five Dynasties Liehou, a scholarly family."Rong'er, truly the most blessed person in the world!

Seeing Xiu Gu coming in from the outside, Daiyu seemed to have something to say, so she asked with a smile, "Xiu Gu, what's the matter?"

"Someone from Jia's mansion brought the girl two sets of clothes, and said they would take her back to Jia's mansion for the New Year." Xiu Gu replied, carefully observing the expressions of everyone in the room.

Daiyu looked at Shui Jing, then at Shui Rong, and saw that the two of them didn't speak, but looked at her silently and smiled.

Thinking back to this time last year, how desolate I was in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion in the Grand View Garden of Jia Mansion!

At that time, I had just returned from the gate of hell, my body was weak, and my heart longed for the love of my relatives more than ever. What were the people of Jiafu doing at that time?

Thinking of this, Daiyu said coldly: "Last year, when I was a guest in Jia's mansion, they let me celebrate the new year alone with the master and servant of Zijuan Xueyan. This year I returned to my own home, why did they come to pick me up and go to their house?" Chinese New Year at home? Tell the people in Jia’s house that I’m used to celebrating the New Year by myself, and I won’t go anywhere. I have new clothes for the New Year, and I want the people in Jia’s house to bring back the clothes they sent me, but I don’t want it.”

Xiu Gu went out for a while, then came back and told her: "Miss, the man from Jia's mansion refuses to go back. He must see the lady, saying that the old lady of Jia's mansion has a letter for her to deliver to you face to face."

After hearing this, Shui Rong asked unhappily: "Could it be that the people of Jia's mansion can do whatever they want? Do you listen to the people of Jia's mansion or Yu'er?"

"Rong'er is right, Xiugu, I see you are not old yet, and your mind is a little confused." Shui Jing said while looking at Xiugu coldly.

Xiu Gu hurriedly knelt down and said, "Damn this servant! This servant is only thinking about the special relationship between the girl and the Jia family."

Daiyu signaled Zijuan to help Xiugu up, and said with a smile: "Actually, Xiugu is very kind-hearted and quite capable. I am here thanks to Xiugu, and the two girls can't do without Xiugu's advice."

Shui Jing let out a muffled snort: "Well, Xiugu, for Yu'er's sake of pleading for you, I won't hold you accountable for not doing enough to protect the lord today. From now on, you have to take care of yourself. Lucky."

Xiugu hurriedly kowtowed to Shuijing, and kowtowed to Shuirong Daiyu. Daiyu supported Xiugu and said as if she were a relative, "Xiugu, I know you have long regarded me as a relative in your heart, but you can't let me go." It's just the status of master and servant."

With hot tears rolling in her eyes, Xiugu choked up and said, "It's a blessing that I have cultivated in several lifetimes to have a master like a girl in this life. I will never dare to half-heartedly treat a girl in this life."

"I'm very happy that you think so. It means that my mother didn't love you in vain, and I didn't misunderstand you." Shui Jing said coldly, with no expression on his face, picked up the tea bowl, took a sip, and put it down slowly. He smiled at Daiyu: "Yu'er, do you want to go shopping and buy some things for the New Year?"

These words were exactly what Shui Rong wanted, he happily forgot about the little unpleasantness just now, and was about to applaud.

Baozhu came in and handed Shui Jing a letter.

After Shui Jing looked at it, he shook his head and smiled at Daiyu: "I can't go shopping with Yu'er anymore. Someone from the south has come to Beijing, and I have to report some important things in person. I have to go back and have a look." It would be great if the situation in China could be like the mountains and rivers in the south!"

If you eat the king's salary, you have to share your worries for the king.

Sending off the emperor with Shui Rong, Daiyu couldn't help thinking about the 10 taels of silver that she had just received from the emperor, as well as Shui Rong's 1 taels of silver, and her heart sank.

Turning his head and seeing Shui Rong grinning, looking at his happy smile, he thought with emotion: Shui Rong is five years older than himself, but he left Beijing when he was three years old. He stayed away from the capital for 15 years and lived a life almost isolated from the world with his master. He practices literature and martial arts every day, devotes himself to the study of strategies and tactics, and knows little about world affairs.Now back in the capital, he is the emperor's beloved son, the assistant prince of the court, and everything he sees and hears is a welcoming smile. It is difficult for him to realize that people are unpredictable.

Thinking of this, Daiyu couldn't help laughing to herself: If she hadn't both died of her parents and lived in Jia's mansion to prepare for hardships, how would she have realized that the world is so cold and human relationships are as thin as paper? "Girl! Uncle Lin is here!" Xueyan yelled and ran in talking and laughing.

Shui Rong asked in a daze, "What did you say? Which Uncle Lin?"

Xueyan giggled and replied, "It's our girl's elder brother, Lin Liangyu from Gusu, Uncle Lin."

Daiyu was overjoyed when she heard this, and explained to Shui Rong: "He is my uncle's son, my father's nephew. Now he is the only male in my Lin family. He is my direct brother."

Shui Rong laughed happily and said, "I'm worried that there will be few people during the New Year, and I'm worried that Yu'er will say that it's not lively. It's just in time for my brother-in-law to come, please hurry up!"

"What are you talking about!" Daiyu rolled her eyes at Shui Rong, then smiled at Zijuan and the others: "My brother didn't write a letter to say anything, even I didn't know they would come to the capital."

Daiyu went out to greet them full of joy, and saw Lin Liangyu's mother and son had already arrived at the second gate.

Lin Liangyu's mother and son brought only some necessary clothes and books, but Daiyu brought a lot of Gusu rituals.

Daiyu Shuirong took Lin Liangyu and her son into the flower hall and sat down, Xueyan brought tea, Zijuan served refreshments.

Seeing Lin Liangyu's mother and son constantly looking at Shui Rong beside him, Daiyu blushed and muttered in a low voice, "This is Brother Rong."

Seeing Daiyu's shy and uneasy appearance, Lin Liangyu's mother and son guessed in their hearts but were not sure.

Discussion: "Looking at the situation, this young man has a very close relationship with Daiyu. Could it be that he is the cousin of the Jia family?"

It's just that Daiyu doesn't open her mouth, and it's not easy to interrogate her when she enters the door.After all, we haven't known each other for a long time, and we haven't gotten along well.

Lin Liangyu's mother and son kept looking at Shui Rong, and saw that his clothes were simple and plain, but he was handsome and imposing, standing with Daiyu, he really matched well.

After exchanging pleasantries, Daiyu instructed Xiugu, "Chunxuan Hall was originally the yard prepared by Daddy for Grandma, and her old man has never been to the capital, so the yard has been empty all the time, so you take someone to tidy it up for Eldest Auntie to live in. Jiweizhai is the place where my father lived before, it is very close to Chunxuan Hall, it is best for my brother to live there and read books."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Mother Lin, and then ordered: "You tell Ah Shan, ask him to pick some good and reliable girls and send them to Chunxuan Hall to serve."

Mother Lin declined with a smile and said, "Miss, don't worry so much, life is much better now. The money you left to your brother when you left, I bought a dozen hectares of good land in your name, and the harvest this year is not bad. Some time ago, Your brother found a good doctor for me, and healed my eyes, and now I can see things without blurring. I can do the things at home by myself, and I don’t need anyone to help me.”

After all, Mother Lin handed over the land deed and the bank notes, and said with a smile: "This is the girl's land deed, and the things collected in the field are not easy to carry, so Uncle Fu exchanged them for bank notes."

Daiyu, who has no parents to take care of her and longs for family affection in her heart, was very happy when she saw Lin Liangyu's mother and son arrive at the end of the year, but she was even more moved when she heard what Lin's mother said.

Daiyu, who had been hurt by the closest relatives of the Jia family, felt that her relatives in the Lin family were better. She smiled heartily and said, "I can't accept the land deed and bank notes. The money is Daiyu's filial piety to the eldest aunt."

Seeing Daiyu and Lin Liangyu's mother and son pushing back and forth, Shui Rong felt a little anxious.

He reached out to take the land deed and bank note, stuffed it into Lin Liangyu's arms, and said with a smile, "Don't embarrass Yu'er. I heard that all the property of the Lin family was sold by the Jia family. Now the Lin family except for the Lin family's ancestral house , there is nothing left. Since Yu'er gave it to you, you just take it."

Mother Lin smiled kindly and said: "Liangyu often said that her younger sister has suffered a lot in recent years, and he wants to prepare more dowry for her younger sister. This time when he went to Beijing to prepare for the Chunwei exam, he also wanted to let his younger sister Don't be bullied by your in-laws."

When Daiyu heard Mother Lin's words, her face was shy, but her heart was sweet. She smiled and said, "Over the years, my aunt and brother have suffered a lot. Now that I am here, if my aunt is wronged again, it will be Yu'er's fault." gone."

Lin Liangyu smiled kindly at Daiyu: "I've made my sister bother. I originally wanted to spend my whole life farming and studying in the countryside, but my clan members often persuaded me, saying that my uncle was born in the fifth generation of the Lin family. Going to Beijing to take the exam, gaining fame, honoring my ancestors, and worthy of being the descendant of a scholarly family. I think what the clansman said is also reasonable. Thinking that the year is approaching, and my sister is alone in Beijing, I will hand over the family to Uncle Fu to take care of me with my mother. Come to Beijing to accompany my sister, and when my sister has a good home, I will return to my hometown with my mother. I want to take part in the scientific examination in the spring of next year. If I can get something, I will be considered a descendant of the Lin family, and I will not embarrass my ancestors."

Daiyu understood Lin Liangyu's thoughts, and knew how hard it was for him to recognize his ancestors and return to his clan, and he wanted to be a good descendant of the Lin family.

Smiling and encouraging: "According to my brother's skills, as long as you work hard, it shouldn't be difficult to gain fame."

Shui Rong looked at Liangyu, and asked with a smile: "Brother-in-law, do you want to be a prostitute like my father-in-law?"

The eldest aunt glanced at Daiyu and said, "When did Daiyu get married?"Why didn't you write a letter to say it?

Lin Liangyu looked at Shui Rong, also full of doubts.

Daiyu said angrily, "What are you talking about! That's your father-in-law!"

"You are my future wife, isn't your father my father-in-law? I'm not wrong." Shui Rong looked at Daiyu and explained to Liangyu's mother and son seriously.

"When did sister get married? Why didn't you mention it in the letter?" Lin Liangyu looked at Daiyu's angry face and scolded Shui Rong, but he didn't deny it, and asked carefully.

Daiyu's pretty face was flushed, she was unbearably shy, she lowered her head and muttered softly, "That's what he looks like!"

"In May of this year, Yu'er came back from the south, and the emperor proposed marriage to us. Not long after, I went to the northwest, and not long after, Yu'er also went to the northwest. Now, we have just returned to the capital from the northwest Yu'er may not have had time to write a letter to tell you." Shui Rong said to Lin Liangyu patiently.

Lin Liangyu was even more astonished when she heard the words "Father's marriage", she stared at Shui Rong, thinking that she had misheard, and couldn't believe it.

Xueyan Zijuan was quite familiar with Lin Liangyu's mother and son, and said with a smile, "This is the assistant prince, Shui Rong, our girl's fiancé."

Lin Liangyu's mother and son heard this, and seeing Daiyu blushing, they knew that she was a girl, and no one asked her, so she was embarrassed to talk about her marriage first.

So, salute to water again.

Shui Rong cheerfully supported the mother and son of the Lin family, and said affectionately: "We are all from our own family, so we don't need those vain courtesy. Logically speaking, you are Yu'er's aunt and brother, so I have to salute you first. Everyone is free. Well, save you Lilly, I will go, making the whole family look like guests."

When the end of the year was approaching, the arrival of Lin Liangyu's mother and son made Daiyu, whose parents had both died since she was a child, and longed for the love of her relatives, her heart doubly happy, and Yuyuan added joy.

At this time, Jia's mansion was full of gloom. I saw Jia's mother sitting on the soft couch, looking listless, and the eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Xing and the second daughter-in-law, Mrs. Wang, sat there dumbfounded, silent and silent.

After Baochai gave birth to a child, she stayed in the house for confinement and did not go out, so she no longer came to Jia's mother for joy.

Li Wan and Youshi have their own thoughts, and they are also lazy, not wanting to talk.

Sister Feng's complexion was yellow and sallow. Ever since she returned to the big room after the power of the housekeeper was handed over to Baochai, she kept saying that she was not feeling well. Avoid, this year, even Jia Mu didn't persuade her to take charge again.

In fact, her heart disease is greater than her body disease.

In the past, I was in control, busy all day, so tired that I climbed into bed at night, and fell asleep as soon as I closed my eyes.Now that I am free, I look back and think that I am exhausted, even the boy who has already formed a belly is exhausted. Up to now, I only have a daughter Qiaojie under my knees. In the end, I not only made wedding dresses for her, but also was ridiculed by others It is a money-losing product to raise.

Now Wang Xifeng really wants to live a peaceful and stable life with Jia Lian, wants to take care of her body and give birth to a son, but she finds that Jia Lian and her have already been in the same bed and different dreams, seemingly in harmony with each other.

These days, she felt that Jia Lian had something on his mind. After staying at home for a while, her heart felt like long grass, and she was anxious to go out.

Now that she doesn't care about the family, she has no power in her hands, and even the servant is obsequious to her, and she can't ask the truth at all.

She simply didn't ask any more questions, lest she didn't eat the mutton and caused a commotion.

The world is easy, but the nature is hard to change.

If Wang Xifeng thinks it can really be what she thinks, then it's fine if she doesn't ask.It's just that the world is easy and the nature is hard to change.

She observed and pondered carefully, and from all kinds of clues, she was sure that Jia Lian had a woman outside.

She also felt that this woman was more troublesome than the dead Second Sister You, and more powerful than the living Qiutong.

Just when she was absent-minded and thinking about her own thoughts, she heard Jia Mu sighing again and again: "It's almost the Chinese New Year, and I don't know what's going on with Miss Lin? Alas! I can only tear this intestine if I close my eyes. Don't worry, but don't worry." Jia Mu's tone was very confusing, and people couldn't help but be moved.

"Old Ancestor, don't worry about it. Sister Lin is now serving as the fiancée of the prince, the favorite daughter-in-law appointed by the Emperor himself. What will happen?" Wang Xifeng smiled forcefully and comforted Jia Mu in a soft voice.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wang didn't know what was on her mind, she said with a smile: "Old lady, if you are worried, I will send someone over to have a look?"

As soon as she finished speaking, even Li Wan couldn't help squinting, and couldn't help showing a hint of sneer.

Mother Jia shook her silver hair and sighed, "I've seen a stubborn child before, but I've never seen such a headstrong girl. Come on! Come on! Feng girl goes back to prepare some food, Ming'er will let Lan'er and sister Qiao Brother and sister go to Yuyuan, visit Miss Lin, and send some New Year snacks to Aunt Lin."

Mother Jia had no choice but to do something, and she thought to herself, girl Lin, you hate the Jia family for treating you harshly, you are angry with everyone in the Jia family, and you can't be angry with these two innocent and lovely children who call you aunt, right? ?There is no barrier between these two children and you, do you have the nerve to avoid seeing them?

Mother Jia's move is really powerful!

If Daiyu really didn't see Jialan and Qiaojie, and the two children were seen holding things at the gate of Yuyuan, they would at least be criticized as little chickens, and even children would be taken into account.Mother Jia is an old man, so how can she not know that Daiyu is a pure and noble girl with a pure heart, and she has never been the kind of narrow-minded person.

The people in Jia's house said that they were arrogant, arrogant, petty-tempered, and had no tolerance for others. They were just talking nonsense to please Mrs. Wang, who was in charge of the family, to elevate Baochai and attack Daiyu.At that time, she just wanted to open her eyes and close her eyes, muddling along.

well!The past is over, too late to regret.

Jia's mother secretly prayed in her heart: I hope that the relationship with Daiyu can be restored, so that Jia's mansion can once again catch up with the wind of heaven, and live a good life of luxury and lust without worry.
