The Rose of the Red Chamber

Today Lin Ruhai came to pick Daiyu and the three of them home, what happened?

Mrs. Wang was still thinking about Yinglian's background. Recently, she often called Qin Keqing over to talk, and when Qin Keqing came over to talk, Mrs. Wang specifically called Yinglian over.

I just want to see if there is any mutual assistance between two women who look alike.

When Madam Wang found out that both of them looked strange, Madam Wang looked at the appearance of the two of them and felt that they were both good at covering up.

Mrs. Wang is a very stubborn person, and the things she looks for are those who go all the way to the black.

She was sure that Yinglian was not Zhen Shiyin and Feng's biological child, even if the evidence was there, she would turn a blind eye.

It's a good thing that Zhen Shiyin and his wife didn't know that the good parents had become dry in the eyes of Mrs. Wang, otherwise they would be really depressed.

The men sat in the front, and the female relatives were in the back. Madam Wang wished that the Lin family siblings would leave quickly, but if the Lin family siblings were to leave, Yinglian, who was a subsidiary of the Lin family, would also have to leave.

Mrs. Wang felt that it was a pity, so she didn't know whether it was to impress Yinglian, or to show off the protagonists of the Lin family. Mrs. Wang called Yinglian to her, let her sit beside her, and pulled her I touched her hand, and I couldn't bear to part with it.

Yinglian lowered her eyebrows and smiled, but said nothing. Seeing that Mrs. Wang was still talking, and seeing that Mrs. Wang called Baoyu over, Yinglian sighed in her heart, then raised her head and said kindly, "Thank you My wife's praise is only for the beauty of lotus and willow, so I can't bear my wife's love."

"Ugh, wow~" Madam Wang vomited as soon as Yinglian finished speaking.

And Yinglian, who was sitting next to Mrs. Wang, vomited on her body because Mrs. Wang couldn't stand it.

Well, there are a few people in this room with hearts, so the sound of vomiting one after another can be heard endlessly.

Seeing this situation, not to mention the pampered mother Jia, even the little girls Daiyu and Tanchun vomited a lot.

Baoyu was no exception. He was originally sitting next to Lin Daiyu. After being called over by Madam Wang, he sat next to Madam Wang. Worse than everyone.

For a while, the sour smell from Jia Mu's upper room was so strong that it choked her nose...

Baoyu always knew that Yinglian had a tone, but no one said it.Mrs. Wang didn't feel his thoughtfulness at all.

When she vomited until it was dark, she realized why her son acted like he wanted to get close to the Zhen family girl but didn't dare to get close.

It's just...it's too late to say anything.

With everyone like this, there is no way to stay in this room anymore.And this room really can't stay alone anymore.So everyone got up and went back to their residences to change clothes and wash again.And Jia Mu didn't mention it.

Tanchun lived in the green gauze closet, and the smell from the main room had already wafted in. She was so disgusted that she had no choice but to have someone take her clothes and go to Xichun's room.

Does she really doubt that she is really the granddaughter of the old lady?

Tanchun felt that this day was really unbearable, if something like this happened twice again today, she would definitely run away.

She doesn't even have a room of her own, and she has neither soundproof nor smellproof in this green gauze cabinet.

Tanchun remembered that it was said in the book that Daiyu lived here for several months before moving out.She just wanted to ask how long she would have to live before moving out, even if she moved to the second wife's place, she wouldn't choose.

Maybe it was a psychological effect, when Tanchun returned to the Bisha closet that day, he still felt that the smell in the Bisha closet had not been cleaned, so he slept in Xichun's room again that night.

......

After throwing up, the brothers and sisters of the Lin family went back to the small courtyard where the Lin family lived temporarily. They had already packed their luggage, but they didn't expect a group of them to come back so 'haggard', so they rummaged through the boxes and re-washed them again.

After everything was packed, Daiyu took people to bid farewell to various parts of the mansion. Several elders, mainly Jiamu, sent people over to say that they didn't need to see each other, and they would have opportunities in the capital in the future.

Yinglian didn't expect such a big trouble, and now she heard that she didn't have to go anywhere, she felt relieved, and she looked at Daiyu with a kind of relaxation in her eyes.

Yinglian also seldom speaks now because of the candy. After all, she doesn't dislike the taste, but others can't bear it.

Daiyu once wanted to try this candy, but Daiyu Xijie couldn't stand the taste, so between Baoyu's entanglement and the taste, she could only choose the former.

Daiyu was really relieved to be able to go home at last.

Not to mention herself and Brother Ping, it's just that Yinglian's place makes her tense all the time, and she's afraid of something.

You must know that even if Baoyu is still young, Baoyu will be eight years old next year.

Although eight-year-old men can't get married, it's enough to spread some words and spread the reputation of being a bad girl.

As long as Sister Zhen's family is handed over to Mr. and Mrs. Ma's wife safely, she will be relieved.

Although Yinglian is a bit naive, she doesn't have much affection for the Jia family.

First of all, her parents are alive and she doesn't have any sense of belonging to Jia's family.Secondly, she disliked the behavior of the Jia family, who were arrogant and snobbish.

Yinglian felt that given her family's family status, she would not have any contact with Jia's family in the future. Although today's situation is like this, Yinglian does not think that they will have a chance to meet each other in the future.

Even if the second wife of that family still came to pick up the invitation, couldn't she still pretend to be sick?

The three of them followed Lin Ruhai's sedan chair all the way back to the Lin's house with their luggage. When they arrived at the Lin's house, Yinglian paid a visit to Lin Ruhai first and then went back to the yard where she lived.

The yard is huge, but she doesn't live here.Because according to Lin Ruhai's thinking, she hoped that Yinglian could live a little further away from Daiyu.

So I built a yard for her alone, next to Daiyu's yard.Because of this, their yards are next to each other, so it is the most convenient for them to come and go.

The father and daughter on the Lin family's side are very warm when they meet each other, and the same is true on the Zhen's family's side.

With the arrival of the new year, everything in the capital is filled with a sense of stability and peace.But on the frontier, it was bloody.

Someone made a mistake.

The men from the Jiang and Zhao families went to the battlefield together.

The women and children who stayed at home could not sleep all night.

Zhao Xiuning originally fed the baby herself, but after a few days, the milk was not enough.

Fortunately, Jiang Xingyuan thought that Zhao Xiuning might not have enough milk to feed his two children, so he specially bought ewes and cows back.

If you feed them together, you won't starve the two children.

"Although it's easier to get promoted here, I always think about it in my heart. Sister, find a way to move around, let's change places. I'm really scared."

Liu Liu looked at his son who was reading and practicing calligraphy under the lamp, and he couldn't help but worriedly said to the eldest sister who was doing needlework, "Huan'er is also old, my son went to see it before, and there are only two private schools here. , the teacher is just a scholar who has failed many times, I'm really afraid that he will be delayed again."

Liu Liu would never let her son go to the battlefield to fight. She would rather her son get a good name step by step.

But the private schools in this frontier really couldn't meet Liu Liu's requirements for education.

Zhao Xiuning pressed the embroidery needle on her scalp, then continued to embroider a flower whisker with her head down, "Your brother also told me two days ago that he would have to wait at least two more years before he would have the opportunity to move elsewhere." Activities. I just thought that when I left this land, I must take Ling'er by my side to raise him.

The girl's family will be going out in a few years, she will be seven years old in the next year, and if she leaves this place in two years, she will be nine years old, and she will be able to stay with me for a few years at this age.You also know that Ling'er has never been by my side since the day she was born, and fortunately that child is a precocious child, otherwise she would know who I am. "

Zhao Xiuning couldn't continue embroidering as she talked, so she put the needle and thread aside, picked up the handkerchief and began to wipe away her tears.

The eldest daughter has not been by her side since she was born, and the eldest son will never call him mother even though he is by his side.In Zhao Xiuning's heart, don't mention how bad it is.

But what can she do, she has nothing to do.

If the child hadn't persuaded him to leave, maybe the two little ones beside him would not have had the chance to be born.

Looking at the present day, and thinking about the past again, what she owes the most is that child.

Liu Liu saw the big aunt like this, and thought of the little girl she had only met once.

Alas, it's not because of this child that they have today's life.

When I was young, without Liu Liu saying anything, Zhao Xiuning slowed down by herself, looked at Huan'er who was practicing calligraphy under the lamp, and then looked at the two young sons sitting on the kang playing with their feet, Zhao Xiuning said, "No matter what, at most In five years, we need to leave here, and the children will not be delayed."

None of them are military households, and they don't want to join the military households, so the children cannot inherit the official positions of their parents.And they are also reluctant to let their children go to the battlefield again.

The battlefield has no eyes, life and death are impermanent...

Liu Liu nodded, "That's what I mean too."

Zhao Xiuning thought of the letters from Jingli that he had been waiting for for the past two days, and frowned anxiously, "It was only three or five days in the evening at this time in the past, and it is almost ten days late, so I don't know if it is from Jingli. What's the matter."

"Perhaps it was delayed on the road. I don't know. Didn't it say that there was heavy snow last month, and the bridge collapsed. Regardless of his young age, Linger's child is not lacking in thought and means. He will be fine. Think about it. On the way."

Zhao Xiuning nodded, seeing that the time was about the same, she didn't tell Zhao Huan, who was painting red at the side, to hurt her eyes again, they cleaned up and asked the girl to fetch water, and after washing up, they all slept together.

The frontier is bitterly cold, and the winter is the longest, so the houses here must have a heated kang, not only a heated kang, but also a big and long one, where two women and three children sleep together to make a living.

Although there are three boys, the children are still young at the moment.When men go to the battlefield, if women don't watch over their children day and night, life will be even more difficult.

After eating breakfast the next day, Zhao Xiuning took care of two minor family matters, and the messenger from the capital came back.

It turned out that as Liu Liu said, they were all delayed on the road.

Zhao Xiuning took the burden, touched the skin of the burden carefully, and then opened it.

On the top are a few small pieces of needlework. You can tell who they are for by looking at the patterns and colors.

Zhao Xiuning didn't know that Tanchun watched the four of them grow up, so the things they prepared were more in line with everyone's preferences, but when they looked at these things, they felt that this child was the most caring even if he wasn't around.

Taking out the needles and threads one by one, I found that Tanchun's letter was placed in the middle of the needles and threads as usual.

Taking out the letter and opening it, Zhao Xiuning first read it at a glance, and found that nothing major had happened, then read it again word by word twice, and Zhao Xiuning would not stop until the contents of the letter could be memorized. .

During this period, it was useless for anyone to disturb her, as Liu Liu took over the children and family matters.

Not long after receiving Tanchun's letter, Jiang Xingyuan and Zhao Guoji also switched defenses from the battlefield.

It was New Year's Eve in two days, and with Tanchun's early New Year's greetings home letter, the two families, four adults and three children had a lively New Year.

Compared with the Jiang and Zhao families far away in the borderlands, the Lin family has had a good year.

Maybe it was a family of scholars who met together, the Zhen family and the Lin family spent the New Year together either to write a poem or fill in a word, and the back and forth was quite elegant.

So this year, I drank in the big bowls of the Jiang and Zhao families, the boldness of eating meat, the elegant writing of the Zhenlin family, and the luxury and wealth of the Jia family that have not changed for several years slipped by quietly.

After the New Year, every household has New Year greetings.The Jia family also has them here, but almost all of them are relatives of the same family. Every year, Tanchun would go to the Wang family with Mrs. Wang and Baoyu to pay New Year's greetings. But at the end of the year, Wang Ziteng was promoted and he was no longer in the capital.

As for the historian, I don't know what's going on. Anyway, in the past few years, they have rarely mixed with Jia's family. If they have nothing to do, they throw Shi Xiangyun out to deal with Jia's mother.

"Meet Master Lin."

Lin Ruhai supported the person who came, and said repeatedly, "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, please take your seat, Marquis Shunchang."

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Chang Tuo came to Lin Ruhai's mansion to pay New Year's greetings, which surprised and delighted Lin Ruhai.

This is the most caring nephew, dear nephew.

The one who doesn't look like a mountain or dew, but is the most powerful prince.

Now seeing Chang Tuo coming to the door, Lin Ruhai wondered if that person had some orders.But what can he do as a fourth-rank idle official?

There is so much that can be done.

Lin Ruhai is a detective with a previous record, and his classmates don't know the past. If this network is well grasped, it can also be useful.

Regardless of other things, when employing people, you must use them to the extreme. This is the way royal people are used to.

Although this Lin Ruhai has withdrawn from the Yangzhou Yanzheng who is like a fat oil pan, he can still fry oil from his body. Since he can fry oil, he must use it properly.

So Chang Tuo came to be a lobbyist again after receiving his uncle's order.

The two talked for a long time in Lin Ruhai's study, until lunch time, the two came out one after the other.

Lin Ruhai invited Chang Tuo to lunch again, and asked Zhen Shiyin and Lin Ping to come out to accompany them during the dinner.

The four of them did not talk about the current state affairs during the meeting, but only talked about some collections of literary and epic poems.

Having said this, Lin Ruhai discovered that Marquis Shunchang, who was of Fanbang blood, was also a 'literate person'.

At such a young age, her cultural attainments are not shallow, but it made Lin Ruhai look at her with admiration.

Lin Ruhai thought this son was good, and was very happy to get in touch with him when he saw him, so he often asked his son to communicate with Chang Tuo.Chang Tuo and Liu Xianglian are also good friends, and the two teenagers had a lot of fun with the little doll Lin Ping during the first month.

After the new year, February will come soon.Because Daiyu didn't have many birthdays during the filial piety period, except for her own family, several sisters of the Jia family and Baoyu gave gifts, and the family passed away after eating birthday noodles.

At the beginning of March, Tanchun's birthday, because Daiyu and Yinglian sent the birthday gift in advance, but the gift was so good that no one came, because the relationship between each other in Jia's two months was getting closer, and I knew Daiyu Tanchun is not angry because neither Yinglian nor Yinglian can come.After all, it's more troublesome to come here, because no one in the Jia family wants to celebrate her birthday.

After Tanchun's birthday, it was still one day in March. Daiyu, Yinglian and Fengshi had lunch together and played Shuanglu in the inner study.Just after winning a small game, a girl came to invite Feng Shi.

It is said that someone invited the official media to come to propose marriage.

Yinglian blushed when she heard this, and Daiyu giggled beside her.

Not to mention Daiyu's age, but only to say that the Lin family is in the filial piety period, so it cannot be Daiyu.The one who can invite the Feng family must propose marriage to Yinglian. Whenever Yinglian thinks of this, her face turns red uncontrollably.

Feng Shi thought that her daughter was also in her teens, but she was at the age to find someone else.Over the years, she and Zhen Shiyin had been wanting to find a son-in-law, but they had never met one, but they never expected that someone would come to propose marriage as soon as they entered Beijing.I don't know who it will be.

After exhorting the girls, Feng took the girls to the side hall where the official media stayed.

If you can invite the official media to talk about your relatives, you should have some status.

At least it's a juren.

Sure enough, the person who came to propose marriage turned out to be a Jinshi, the second-ranked Jinshi in the previous year.

The person who came was naturally not Feng Yuan, because Feng Yuan's son was not yet capable of being admitted to Jinshi.

Who is the person here? His surname is Fu, his name is Shi, and Fu Shi also.

Fu Shi can be regarded as a person from the capital city. He has been waiting in the capital city for several years, but the Fu family has no connections and no wealth. Many new scholars have already found jobs, but he is still waiting. Unwilling, he wanted to take a walk.

In the original book, Fu Shi was supposed to be Jia Zheng's protégé, and he was devoted to Jia's family.But at this moment, the butterfly's wings still had a certain effect, and it made Fu Shi see Lin Ruhai.

Although Lin Ruhai is only a fourth-rank official, not as good as the second master of Rongguo Mansion, but he is a person who has passed the official examination and has been in office for decades. How can it be the one in Rongguo Mansion who got a half-official position by relying on Yin Feng for decades? Jia Zheng is comparable.

After knowing about the Lin family and Lin Ruhai, he wanted to ask the Lin family to find him an official position, and carefully inquired about the situation of the Lin family. Although he hadn't thought about the Lin family's daughter, the fact that the Lin family's daughter was only seven years old this year still shocked him.

However, I heard that Lin Ruhai's adoptive daughter is a teenage girl, and after inquiring about this girl's parents, both of whom are well-known figures in the Lin family, Fu Shi felt that this would be a good way to go.

There is a door, there is a door.

Marrying a wife and marrying low, marrying a daughter and marrying high, Jinshi and Juren's daughter, a match made in heaven.

So I spent money to invite the official media to come to propose marriage.

Feng Shi met the official media and heard that the official media praised Fu Shi like a flower. Although Feng Shi was happy, he still insisted on the principle.

"Perhaps the official mother-in-law doesn't know that my husband and I have only such a daughter, and we will depend on her for our livelihood in the future. Naturally, she is not allowed to marry outside. Will this brother of the Fu family be willing to marry?"

'Ah' the official media couldn't help shouting.

The official media was shocked, she had never seen such a request.

This Mrs. Zhen's family is so angry that she actually wants to marry the Jinshi master?

Of course, this kind of requirement is actually not too harsh, but after all, almost no people contacted by the official media have such a requirement.

The official media had no choice but to go back and ask, then took a red envelope from Feng and slipped away.

A few days later, Mother Jia called Daiyu to the mansion, and when Daiyu came, she quietly told Tanchun about the matter. When Tanchun heard about it, her first thought was that the marriage would not work.

There are more sister-in-laws and more mother-in-laws, and more sister-in-laws are more right and wrong.

The most famous of the Fu family is that there is an old girl who is not married and is as famous as Xue Baochai.

It's not easy to be a sister-in-law when such a big girl stays at home.

"Is the Zhen family really planning to let the sister of the Zhen family recruit a wife?"

Daiyu nodded, that's still false.

"That's pretty good too. It's such a happy thing to live with your parents. Why didn't Brother Ping come this time?"

"Father left him to study at home. Hey, I found that my grandmother's complexion is not very good, and the same is true at the second aunt's place. And why did the second sister move back to the courtyard of the eldest uncle?"

When Tanchun heard this, he sighed, "Fortunately, you asked me in private, there has been a commotion in the house recently."

After hearing this, Daiyu didn't know whether to continue asking.

The author has something to say: Thanks to Pan Xue Sanyuan for throwing 2 mines, thank you!

Maybe I stayed up late and felt a little uncomfortable before, so I am a bit hypocritical.

I have checked all over the past two years, but I will have a fever every one or two months, and the fever will last for a little while, and then it will be fine.I couldn't find out the reason, and I didn't bother to take it to heart. ...just the feeling of having a fever is really uncomfortable.

Tomb-sweeping Day is about to be celebrated, and it seems that the country does not allow paper money to be burned. Is it possible that adults still have to work to earn money for themselves?

No firecrackers are allowed during Chinese New Year, no burning paper is allowed to be put on graves during Qingming Festival, will it become no dragon boat rowing during the Dragon Boat Festival, no moon cakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and no lanterns during the Lantern Festival?

I suddenly felt that after receiving the pension insurance, I must live a few more years.
