[Red Mansion] Mrs. Lin, the Buddhist family

Jia Shu has had a good life in the past two years. She originally wanted to hold a solicitation for essays in Linjiashusi, attracting the attention of scholars, and then rely on the book to increase the sales of Linjiashusi.

Who knew that the Lin family bookstore had made a lot of money selling supplementary books and test questions these years, and it was not suitable for being in the limelight again for the time being, so she temporarily shelved her plan to solicit essays, and the Lin family bookstore fell silent.

Moreover, the two children were growing up day by day, and when they were two or three years old, it was time to be mischievous, so she couldn't just throw the two children to the wet nurse and Mother Lin.

The former is not a family member and has limited concern for the children, while the latter is too old to play wildly with the two children.

Two or three-year-old children are already walking steadily, so they don't often fall down, but their walking posture is still swaying, like a little penguin, which is very cute.

Ever since Zhuzhu learned to walk, every time he was carried into the specially modified toy room, he would sit down on the ground, grab a toy and start playing; but Pippi was not very interested in those toys. As soon as Jia Shu put it on the ground, he ran happily around the toy room with a rattling sound.

Jia Shu always sat next to Zhuzhu and looked at Pippi.Because every time Pippi gets tired from running, she will inevitably run to Zhuzhu's side, sometimes to grab the Chiu Chiu on her head, sometimes to grab the toy that Zhuzhu is playing with, and sometimes just pounce on her. In Jia Shu's arms, he yelled "sister, sister".

At this time, Zhuzhu would just look up and stare at Pippi until he was frightened and let go or shut up.Of course, sometimes Pippi is bold, relying on Jia Shu by his side, he continues to tease Zhuzhu without any fear.

And then it's over...

Today, Zhuzhu was sitting and playing with a small wooden horse on the carpeted floor.

The pony was custom-made by a carpenter, only about Zhuzhu's height, and when she was sitting on the ground, she could hug him and shake her.She didn't ride it either, but sat there quietly, her eyes shining brightly, and she was obviously very fond of ponies.

Jumping up and down, Pippi finally ran over exhausted.Then, he pushed away Zhuzhu's hand, and jumped onto the pony's back.

He swayed, and shouted "drive~drive~", looking back at Zhuzhu proudly from time to time.

Jia Shu: "..."

At first, Jia Shu still wanted to take care of it. If something like this happened, she would usually go and hug Pippi down.But every time at this time, Pippi would cry, and the magic sound filled her ears, making her afraid.

Over time, even though she felt that Pippi really deserved a beating, she didn't care about it——

Anyway, in the end, he was the one who suffered.

Just like this time, when Pippi was in the middle of playing, Zhuzhu turned over and stood up from the ground, then reached out and grabbed Pippi: "Brother, come down!"

Pippi glanced at her, a little timid, but when she thought of her mother by her side, she immediately grinned again.The two rows of teeth, like grains of rice, are so white that they shine: "My sister dare not make a nest!"

Piggy: "..."

Zhuzhu turned his head to look at Jia Shu, his small eyes were indifferent, with a hint of doubt.

Jia Shu pursed his lips, and glanced at Pippi, who hadn't noticed the danger at all. In front of Zhuzhu, he silently turned around and turned his back to the two children.

It's clear that the two don't help each other.

Thinking about what would happen next, Jia Shu raised his hand and gently covered his ears.

After Jia Shu turned around, Zhuzhu squinted her eyes and revealed a shallow smile, and there were two small dimples on her cheeks, which were extremely cute.But the next second he turned his head to look at Pippi, his eyes became fierce and fierce: "Smelly Pipi, put the mud down!"

"Ow—"

Sure enough, in less than two seconds, Pippi's screams rang out.

Only then did Jia Shu turn his head, and met the pitiful eyes of Pippi who was sitting on the ground——

Obviously, he was directly dragged off the pony by Zhuzhu.

Even if Pippi is bigger than Zhuzhu, but purely in terms of strength, he is no match for Zhuzhu at all.However, he suffers from this every time, and he always takes pleasure in provoking pigs. I don't know if there is something missing in his mind.

Pippi immediately got up from the ground, burrowed into her arms, and complained: "Ma Ma is a heartless person, and she doesn't like to be messed with by the little baby!"

Jia Shu snorted the hair on Pippi's scalp: "...Who taught you this?"

Zhuzhu next to him hugged his beloved pony, and said in a childlike voice: "I learned from Ma Ma."

Mother Lin, who was sitting in the corner reading a book, couldn't help laughing out loud when she heard this.

Jia Shu stared: "When will I..."

She remembered that Pippi and Zhuzhu had a good time before, she sat next to her and no one paid attention to her, she felt bored, so she said this in a funny way, unexpectedly, it was just this one time, and it was remembered by the two children up.

It seems that I have to be more careful when I speak in the future.

At this time, Xuefu came in and spread the word that Chixia was looking for her.

To be honest, Jia Shu was a little angry with Chixia because she insisted on aborting the child in the past two years regardless of her desire to hold a book, and it is inevitable that she has alienated her in the past two years.

But after all, she and Cuiyan were her first confidantes, and the years in the Jia family were no easier than those in the Lin family. There was only the small, square courtyard, and the two of them were the only ones who usually spoke, and the relationship was naturally deep.

She talked to the two children, nodded to Mother Lin, and went straight to the bedroom.

As soon as Chixia saw her, she knelt down: "Madam."

Jia Shu frowned: "I told you not to kneel at every turn, why don't you get up quickly?"

Chixia lowered her head, and was the first to disobey Jia Shu's order: "Madam, I have something to say, so please turn your back."

Jia Shu's face was not very good-looking, but he still decided to trust Chixia and let the others back out.

"Say, what do you want to say?"

Chixia seemed to have made a lot of determination, and her tone was rather decisive: "Madam, the servant wanted to abort the child in her belly because she suspected that the child was not a book-holder."

Jia Shu was stunned: "What did you say?!!!"

"The slave once was stunned when she went out, and it has been more than half an hour since she woke up. At that time, her clothes were messy, and she was wearing a man's fancy clothes, and she was lying in a carriage."

"Later, the servant girl told Ping Shu about this."

If we talk about the two most important things that Chixia and Cuiyan learned from Jia Shu, it must be that they should not be concubines for others, and they must be honest when talking to those they care about.

"Holding books didn't dislike me, but we didn't have sex in the next two months. But the child happened to be conceived during that time, and the servant girl couldn't be sure whether the child was holding books, so she thought, just kill the child ..." Thinking of the pain at that time, Chixia felt bitter in her heart, but then she felt relieved, "But after knowing about the book, she disagreed, so the servants could only think of other ways to abort the child."

Jia Shu frowned: "I remember, your son looks very similar to Peng Shu?" It was also because of the child's appearance that she had some doubts about Chi Xia's motives for wanting to abort the child, and that's why she began to distance herself from Chi Xia.

Chixia nodded: "After the child was born, everyone said that he was carved out of the same mold as holding a book, and the slaves knew that the child would not belong to someone else."

Also because of this child, she and Peng Shu have reconciled as before.

But what happened that day has always been a thorn in Chixia's heart, so she didn't tell Jia Shu what happened back then for so long.

"Then why are you willing to talk about it now?" Jia Shu was a little puzzled.

Chi Xia chose not to tell her about such matters involving her own privacy, and Jia Shu could understand.She had asked Chixia several times before, but Chixia didn't let go of her mouth at all, she hid the matter so tightly that no one knew about it except holding the book.

But now, why did you tell her again?

"Because just now, when the servant girl went out to buy things, she was stopped by a man who claimed to be the servant's savior. Although he didn't ask the servant girl to repay the favor, the servant girl felt that this was a bit strange, so she wanted to mention it to the wife. wake up."

Thinking of that man's appearance, Chi Xia's mind was turbulent.

Moreover, she has lived a good life for more than two years, and she doesn't want other people to disturb her current life at all.

Jia Shu's expression was a bit dignified: "He came to you and didn't ask you to repay his kindness?"

Chi Xia nodded: "Ma'am, it's been more than two years since that incident, that person didn't ask the servant to repay his favor back then, but now he suddenly finds the servant, not only didn't ask the servant to do anything, but gave the servant some gifts, it's really unbelievable Rest assured."

Although the man said it cleverly, after all, Chixia has been with Jia Shu for so long and has dealt with all kinds of people when she helped Jia Shu run errands outside. The little girl has little knowledge.

What's more, this matter is too sensitive for her. As soon as the man opened his mouth, she noticed something was wrong almost immediately.

"Do you know the man's name?"

"He calls himself Cui Yan."

"Cui Yan?" Jia Shu couldn't help thinking, "The surname Cui is a bit unique..."

She temporarily suppressed this thought in her heart, and instead asked about the details of Chixia's incident back then: "Did you wake up after passing out, and found yourself lying on the carriage?"

Although Chixia was puzzled, she still nodded.

"Although you are wearing men's clothes, is there anyone else in the carriage?"

Chixia shook her head: "There is only Numaid on the carriage. The Numaid was terrified at the time and didn't notice anything else, but after getting off the car, she found that she was still in the alley not far from the intersection where she passed out at that time, and in the alley, there were only Numaid and The two coachmen did not see the owner of the carriage."

"When you woke up, did you feel unwell? Did you check your body for marks after you got home?"

Chi Xia was a little dazed, not knowing why Jia Shu asked these questions: "No..."

Jia Shu squinted his eyes and had an idea: "How does the decoration of the carriage look?"

"very common."

"But didn't you say that the clothes on your body are luxurious clothes?"

Chi Xia was stunned, and nodded after thinking carefully for a moment: "That's true. It is because of that dress that I suspect that I was saved..." I even thought about whether the person who rescued her was some high-ranking official dignitaries.

After all, the material of that dress is very expensive, and ordinary people can't afford to wear it.

Of course, it's not that she hasn't doubted whether the owner of the carriage is the one who stunned her...

But given the situation at the time, she could only think of the best, otherwise she was very worried about whether she would be able to leave the carriage.So she thanked the coachman and asked the coachman for the name of his "benefactor".

But the coachman kept his mouth shut and told her nothing.

Jia Shu moved his fingers: "The coachman? Do you remember what that coachman looked like?"

Chixia nodded with an ugly face: "I remember." After all, the coachman was at the scene, and he was probably the real murderer. How could she forget his face?

Dreaming back in the middle of the night, she would even be frightened awake because she dreamed that she killed the coachman in her dream!

Jia Shu had an idea in his mind, and asked again, "Is the place where your accident happened far from the Lin family?"

"It's very close. Take another intersection and turn in. It's the street in front of Wen'anhou's Mansion." Chixia smiled wryly. If she didn't see that she was going back to Lin's house soon, how could she let down her vigilance and become dizzy .

Most of the clothes worn by this servant were distributed uniformly, and Chixia appeared near the Lin family. It is hard to say whether the person who "saved" Chixia recognized Chixia's identity.
