Lin Ji's struggling life

This time, together with the virtuous concubine Jia Jiashi Yuanchun, Hepin Guerjiashi, who is the sister of Wenxiang and Wenzhu, and Jingfei Wang Jiashi received the imperial edict together.Among them, the concubine's family has the highest status, and the date of visiting relatives is also the first, followed by Jia Jia's family, and finally Wang Jia's family.

Lin Ji inquired about it. Jia's Mansion and Wang's Mansion were the ones who rebuilt the courtyard with great fanfare. Guerjia's Human didn't know if he got the news in advance, but he simply rebuilt the courtyard where he and his concubine lived before entering the palace.Lin Ji couldn't help admiring secretly in his heart, she really deserves to be the longest-lived concubine of the Kangxi Dynasty, and her natal family is also very strong and knowledgeable about current affairs.

Before Lin Ji could discuss this matter with Lin Ruhai, Jia's mansion had already sent a letter, wanting Lin Ruhai to come and talk about it.Lin Ji knew with his hips that he must be short of money.

Lin Ji had already made a lot of calculations. After he got the news, he sent Xin Linbei first, and brought a lot of wood and stones needed for gardening. He waited for the imperial decree and immediately pulled them out for sale. The price was high. It more than doubled last time and made a huge profit.With Jia's habit of exploiting them layer by layer, the money spent will go to sea, and their little family property will soon be empty, so they have to reach out to their relatives and friends.

As the son-in-law of the Jia family, Lin Ruhai just came back from the fat job in the south of the Yangtze River unharmed. Besides, the Lin family has five generations, and the family background is definitely not weak.As soon as this old lady Jia didn't have enough money, she didn't want to spend any money from her private house. The first thing she thought about was her son-in-law who just came to Beijing.So Lai Da sent Lin Ruhai a post, inviting him to Jia's mansion for a gathering.

Anyway, Lin Ruhai has been up and down in the officialdom for many years, how can he not know what his mother-in-law thinks, for Jia Min's sake, he still went.Of course, it is impossible to give as much as the old lady wishes, but it is still necessary to pay 1 to [-] yuan.Therefore, the Lin family also paid [-] taels for this grand view garden in Jia's mansion.

But this 1 taels of cups would not last long at all.Mrs. Jia racked her brains and pieced things together to squeeze out 20 taels, which was almost spent in exchange for her face.Of course, it can be considered as going on. Now Jia's mother is looking forward to her eldest granddaughter taking good care of her body and striving to give birth to the emperor's son as soon as possible, so there is no need to worry about anything.

When Lin Ji learned of his actions, he disapproved very much, and blocked Lin Ruhai in the study, "You have such leisure, why don't you worry about Daiyu and Qingqing, why are you meddling in this business? Do you have a lot of money or what?! "It's so kind that you sent [-] yuan to the Jia family? !Isn't this equivalent to beating a dog with a meat bun?

"After all, it's not easy for them to be in-laws." Lin Ruhai didn't think much about it, and there were relatives on the left and right, "The Xue family also gave it back, and they gave back [-]."

"The Xue family is the Xue family, and our family is our family. They are waiting to get married. They are not like us, so there is nothing to do with each other." Lin Ji rolled his eyes, "Father, can you grow up?" Snack, don't even know when it's sold."

Lin Ruhai patted Lin Ji, "Nonsense, it's done. After all, Min'er has done her best these years to take care of the Lin family for me. And her old mother is getting old. Now is the time for us to be filial. She But it’s gone. Just take the 1 taels as filial piety for Min’er.” He paused, and then said, “Man, don’t be too fussy. You have a bad habit. Brother seems to be the same way." Such a sticky temperament is not flattering.

Looking at his son's slender figure, he felt a little proud and proud. After all, he has grown up and is different.Now Lin Ji's face has lost the layer of baby fat, with sharp lines, a handsome face, thick sword eyebrows, very handsome.Lin Ruhai just looked at him and felt full of joy. Of course, he was also a little worried. His son was talented and martial arts.

Lin Ji himself was also very curious. He asked more than once about his future work direction, but he didn't have a definite answer.

"I don't have it. I love you. Money is something outside of me. I understand this truth." Lin Ji was afraid of Lin Ruhai's nagging, and hurriedly stated his position, "Father, I should go to the South Study Room to report after I get rid of the obedience." ?” He repeated the old saying, wanting to discuss with Lin Ruhai about his belonging.

Lin Ruhai is now the minister of the Ministry of Industry of the second rank, so he is naturally well-informed.But he really didn't know about Lin Ji's arrangement, the only thing he could be sure of was that Emperor Kangxi would not cheat him.

"I don't have a clue yet. It stands to reason that you should go to the South Study Room, but according to the emperor's wishes, you will probably be allowed to be an imperial guard." After all, Kangxi is going to Fumeng as usual on the Golden Festival. People take it with them.

Of course, there is another reason. This position is mixed with background, and subsequent promotions are easier.Lin Ji marries Ma Hun's daughter. Although he doesn't have to be on the prince's boat, he is also of Manchu blood. Even though Lin Ji is a Han subject, it has become a proof of the Manchu family.

Lin Ji curled his lips, there are so many ways, "Then I'll go back to read." He hastily saluted and walked to his yard. Now Lin Ji is very interested in the medical books and classics in the space, and Nan Huairen's handwriting , as well as the books left by the former owner of the space and the books he received at the end of the world, he is taking a good rest.

In the past, it was because he didn't need it, so he kept piling it up and didn't move it. Now that he knows that these treasures are of great use, he naturally can't miss them.So Lin Ji took great pains to sort out a list during this time, and organized these books into categories.

Of course, many of them are really shameful, after all, for this era, they are still a bit ahead of their time.In addition to doing this every day, he just plays with his two younger sisters.

Lin Daiyu is now living happily with Qingqing. After getting up in the morning, the whole family has breakfast together, and then returns to the yard to learn housekeeping from Madam Xiong. Now Ruo Liu and Lin Daiyu are managing the affairs of the backyard of the Lin family .After having lunch with Qingqing, after a short rest, she will draw red, read books, learn embroidery, tailoring and so on.In the evening, I played with Lin Ji and Qingqing in the small courtyard of Tongluo, and the day passed like this.

The days go by very quickly, and it is time to get rid of the service in the blink of an eye.

On this day, the middle door of Lin's mansion was wide open, and people close to him sent people. Lin Ruhai brought a few children, dressed in plain cloth clothes, and after paying homage to Jia Min, he took off his clothes and changed them into new ones.When a set of procedures goes down, they can be regarded as having completed the task.

Lin Ruhai took Lin Ji outside to greet the guests, and today was also the day when the Lin family re-entered the social circle.At the banquet, someone sent a message to Lin Ji, inviting him to various banquets.Not many people were invited in the backyard. Mrs. Zhang came with Gao Qiao, Mrs. Xu brought Zhang Ruomu and Zhang Ruoyun, but Zarafenga did not come. Her marriage with Lin Ji had already been put on the agenda. Li, can not meet.

Daiyu ordered the servants in an orderly manner, the matter was clear and the responsibilities were clearly defined, and Mammy Xu and Mammy Xiong watched from the side.Wang Xifeng who was following beside her was amazed, she had never seen such a Daiyu, she was quite amazing.

Seeing the little girl recuperating at such a young age, many officials and wives nodded secretly. Although she was the eldest daughter of a bereaved woman, she was nursed by the palace nurses, and she was not inferior to others at all.Of course, there are also many wives who are tempted to think that the relationship between Lin Ji and the princes seems to be good. I don't know if they intend...

Just when everyone was thinking about their own little calculations, Lin Daiyu was also secretly thinking about her own little calculations. After the ladies were settled, a few acquaintances were invited to help greet Zhang Luo, and Lin Daiyu took a few little ones The young girls gathered in their greenhouse.

Of course, the ladies are just smiling, they are still young, it is normal to be playful.

"Sister Qiao, I haven't seen you for a long time. Why have you grown so much?" Lin Daiyu took Gao Qiao's hand, and they were walking towards the garden. Pouting her lips, Daiyu frowned and said.

"Silly, I'm two years older than you, okay? It's time to grow your body. You see, Ruomu has grown a lot." Zhang Ruomu is [-] years old this year, and it's the time when he is stretching. It went up a few inches.

Lin Daiyu naturally only felt envious when she heard this, and secretly prayed in her heart, hoping that she could grow taller too. "By the way, Sister Ruomu, I have prepared something. Please take it back and hand it over to Sister Peisi later." Lin Daiyu prepared some jade seeds for her sister-in-law, all of which were brought by Lin Ji from Jiangnan this time. Lin Daiyu kept some for herself, and distributed the rest.

"What a good thing, I want you to ask me like this." Chen Chunai joked with a smile. She and Pei Si have a good relationship and have frequent contacts. Naturally, she also knows that her marriage with Lin Ji is approaching. In her opinion, the two are indeed suitable. , "Yu'er, you are biased like this. Those of us who came here didn't have a gift, but that didn't come. You still asked someone to send it to her. You are really biased. It really is a family."

This kind of joke is naturally well-intentioned. Everyone said something to each other and talked about Lin Daiyu, "Hey, sisters, please forgive me. There are many famous chrysanthemums in the garden today. Let's move one pot back home." Lin Daiyu's expression of being unable to stand the coercion and resigning to compromise made everyone laugh.

"Oh, a pot of chrysanthemums is like sending us away, that's not okay." Chen Chunai joked, and she smiled and tugged on Lin Daiyu's baby-fat face, "At least I have to add another basket of crabs."

"Hahaha!" Everyone laughed.

Lin Daiyu rubbed her cheeks and pouted, "It's not easy, you can eat any crab on the lunch table!" She waved her sleeves proudly, "Unlimited!"

Gao Qiao tugged at her braids, "Stop bragging, you're just a little bitch, there's no limit, and our stomachs are not big, how much can we eat? If we're sincere, we should send a basket to each of us!" She knew Lin Ji's family background very well, and she was not merciless in cheating Lin Daiyu, and it was Lin Ji who paid for it.

"what?!"

The author has something to say: Actually, I also think Jia Yuanchun's title is very strange, but this is a dream of Red Mansions, and I don't know what kind of position the Kangxi Dynasty should correspond to if it is real.Just treat it as a BUG. . .
