[Red Chamber] Mrs. Lin replaced her

Lin's mother's funeral was finally done decently. Almost all the princes and nobles in the capital came, and even the prince sent his subordinates to express their condolences—Lin Hai used to be his companion. It is reasonable to send someone to come.

Jia Jing and Jia Amnesty took the initiative to receive the guests who came to express their condolences. Even Wei Cheng, Feng Tang and others came to help every day; This also helped Jiazi relieve part of the burden - Liu was naturally unable to come because she was pregnant; although Jia Min wanted to help, but she was an unmarried woman and could not show her face, so she could only comfort Jiazi.

As for Jiazi, he had to take care of the heartbroken Lin Hai, receive the female relatives who came to express their condolences, and guard against the restless servants in the mansion to cause trouble, and he was so busy that he never had a moment of leisure.In just a few days, I lost a lot of weight.

As Jia Zi's aunt, Jia's mother hurried to Lin's house as soon as she heard the news.In fact, everyone knows the situation of the Lin family: after Lin's mother left, there were only Jiazi and Lin Hai, two young people under the age of 20, left in the family. .Therefore, although Jia's mother was dissatisfied with Jiazi, she would not watch Jiazi's jokes at this time.However, Mrs. Xu took over everything for Jia Zi without saying a word, which made Jia's mother, who was full of ambition and planned to show her talents, all of her enthusiasm, suddenly useless.However, under such circumstances, she couldn't say anything: after all, Mrs. Xu is Jiazi's sister-in-law, so the relationship is naturally much closer than her aunt. Dealing with these things is naturally more legitimate.

However, looking at Lin Hai who was kneeling on the mourning hall and burning paper, looking at Jia Zi who was busy inside and out and lost a lot of weight, he thought that Jia Zi had only been married to Lin Hai for less than three months, and he encountered such a funeral as the death of his mother-in-law. , Mother Jia secretly breathed a sigh of relief: Fortunately, fortunately, Jia Min did not marry Lin Hai, otherwise, wouldn't it be Jia Min who had to be a filial piety for her mother-in-law within three months of marriage? ?Three years of filial piety cannot be together, no matter how good the relationship between husband and wife is, it will be worn down.What's more, Lin Hai and Jia Zi are still newlyweds, so it's impossible for them to have a deep relationship...

Turning her head, seeing Jia Amnesty busy helping Zhang Luolin's mother with the funeral, Jia's mother narrowed her eyes slightly.Some time ago, Jia Amnesty didn't know what was going on like crazy, and he didn't know where to get a so-called fabricated evidence to frame Lai for stealing property from the mansion, and forced Jia Daishan to drive Lai's family out of Rongguo Mansion.As long as she thinks of the way Jia Amnesty insisted on driving the Lai family out of Rongguo Mansion, Jia Mu would have headaches: she really didn't know what evil she did in her previous life to give birth to such a evil child.

Naturally, Jia Zi didn't have the heart to pay attention to what Jia's mother was thinking. After Lin's mother's funeral was over, Lin Hai also reported Ding You.The two of them returned to Gusu with Lin Mu's coffin.

The book is short, without words all the way.

Jiazi and Lin Hai supported Mother Lin's coffin all the way back to Gusu, and the Lin clan who had already received the news rushed out of the city one after another to welcome the group back.It wasn't until now that Jia Zi knew that the Gusu Lin family she heard about last time when she came to Gusu was actually Lin Hai's family.

"What's the matter?" Lin Hai looked at Jia Zi suddenly realized, and asked softly, "Are you tired, why don't you go to sleep for a while, I'll do it alone." Tomorrow, Mother Lin will be buried as a aunt The days of Su Lin's ancestral grave; tonight, Lin Hai and Jia Zi accompany Lin's mother on the last journey together.

Jiazi shook his head lightly: "I'm fine. How about you, would you like to lean on me for a while? There are still many things to rely on you tomorrow!"

"No need." Lin Hai gently held Jia Zi's hand, "I want to accompany my bridesmaid again." From Lin's mother's death to when Lin Hai and Jia Zi carried her coffin back to Gusu, ready to be buried in the Lin family's ancestral grave, it has passed It's been a while.Lin Hai's mood has calmed down a lot, and he has gradually accepted the fact that Lin's mother passed away. He is no longer like at the beginning, unable to accept his mother's death at all. down to complete.

"I'll be with you." Jia Zi gave Lin Hai a gentle look, and held Lin Hai's hand back.

Lin Hai looked at Jiazi and nodded slightly, but didn't speak any more.Lin Hai has seen and remembered everything that Jiazi has done for Lin's mother.Lin Hai couldn't imagine what he would do if there was no Jia Zi, if Jia Zi was not busy taking care of everything for him, and his mother died suddenly.

To be honest, at the beginning, for Lin Hai, it didn't make any difference who he was going to marry.After all, with the current imperial decree, Lin Hai has lost his choice.Therefore, for Lin Hai, the most important thing is that his marriage with Jiazi can be settled as soon as possible, and Jiazi can enter the Lin family as soon as possible to fulfill his mother's last wish.However, what happened later, Lin Hai was very grateful that he and Jia Zi were married today: if Jia Zi was not gentle, filial, straightforward, Lin's mother would not have gone so at ease, so peaceful.

Lin Hai knew very well in his heart that he still owed Jiazi something in the matter of marriage - at the beginning, he and Jiazi got married in a hurry, which made Jiazi suffer from gossip, but there was nothing he could do.However, under the circumstances at that time, Lin Hai really had no way to help Jiazi: he could neither delay the marriage, nor come forward to clarify for Jiazi.He can only use a generous dowry to express the importance he attaches to Jiazi; he can only give Jiazi enough respect to prevent Jiazi from being wronged in his marriage.

"By the way, I almost forgot to tell you," Lin Hai suddenly thought of something, and couldn't help but said, "My uncle will come over tomorrow."

"Uncle?" Jiazi looked at Lin Hai with a puzzled expression, never expecting that he even had an uncle: she thought he had no relatives long ago!

Lin Hai couldn't help feeling helpless, and gently tapped Jia Zi's nose: "Mother is from the Chang family of Gusu."

"Chang?" Jiazi blinked his eyes and said in thought, "It seems a bit familiar."

"The Chang family is also a big clan in Gusu, so you may have heard of it." Lin Hai said softly: "Mother is the eldest daughter of my grandfather, and she has a younger brother who is now the patriarch of the Chang clan in Gusu. There are also two concubine younger sisters and one concubine younger brother. After my grandfather passed away, the Chang family had already separated. Apart from having a better relationship with her first-born younger brother, my mother had no contact with other younger siblings on weekdays. "In fact, Lin's mother seldom mentioned to Lin Hai about her concubine's younger brother and younger sister.Therefore, Lin Hai didn't know much about their situation.

Jia Zi looked at Lin Hai in surprise, "Your grandfather's house is so chaotic".In fact, Jia Zi really wanted to ask Lin Hai: Is his two aunts and another uncle the same birth mother?Or three people?However, due to such an occasion, it was difficult for Jiazi to ask.

Lin Hai looked at Jiazi's expression and suddenly wanted to laugh: What kind of expression did Jiazi have? Is it surprising that his grandfather's family has children born to concubines?That is to say, the Jia family, there are no children of concubines.Others, even Wei Cheng, don't they also have an ambitious younger brother who cares about the property of the Wei family?As for the others, that is Du Ruo: Du Ruo's mother is a princess, and his father cannot and dare not have children born of concubines.

Jia Zi looked at Lin Hai curiously: "Who else is there in your grandfather's house..."

Jia Zi and Lin Hai leaned together, chatting in a low voice, the night passed quickly, and the sky soon brightened.

The next day was the day when Mother Lin was buried.All the members of the Gusu Lin family came.Although the Gusu Lin family is not prosperous in the first branch, the second branch is thriving.Moreover, not only the Gusu Lin family, but people from other clans in the city also came here—the Lin family is a well-known and famous family in Gusu, and Lin Hai is the companion of the promising Tanhua Lang and the prince, not to mention, His wife was born in the Ningguo Mansion with two males, and she is the well-known General Xiaoning.

As Lin Hai's wife and Lin's mother's daughter-in-law, Jia Zi has always been at the forefront of the women's family.And behind her, stood old women one by one.They are all the daughters-in-law of Shuzhi, and each of them stood behind Jiazi according to their respective identities.

Watching Lin Mu's coffin gradually being covered by mud, Jiazi suddenly felt an unreal feeling, and two lines of clear tears flowed silently down his cheeks.

Jiazi had no mother since she was a child, and never knew what it was like to have a mother who loved her—although Xu treated her very well, she was still a sister-in-law.In Jazi's heart, mother and sister-in-law are completely different.

It was Lin's mother who gave Jiazi the love of a mother, which made Jiazi feel happy in his heart.However, Jiazi never expected that this happy day would be so short, and she would lose her mother so soon.

When Lin's mother passed away, Jiazi was busy all the time, busy with Lin's funeral, busy supporting Lin Hai, who was overly sad, and preparing for helping the spirit to go south, and had no time to feel his own sadness.But at this moment, watching Lin Mu's coffin being buried, Jiazi's suppressed sadness finally burst out.

As soon as the funeral was over, Jazi staggered and fell down.Hearing Qingfeng's voice calling Jiazi, Lin Hai didn't care about anything else, and hurried over to carry Jiazi back to the nearby hut used by the Lin clan to guard the tomb—according to the rules, he and Jiazi had to live here for a few days .After asking the servants around him to invite the doctor over, and asking Qingfeng to take good care of Jiazi, Lin Haicai reluctantly left the hut under the urging of the people around him to entertain the people who came to attend the funeral.

As for the female relatives, because Jiazi was unconscious and unable to come forward, the wife of an uncle in Lin Hai came forward to entertain her.

As soon as the banquet was over, Lin Hai ran back to Jiazi's hut.On the semi-old and not new bed, Jiazi was still sleeping soundly. Qingfeng looked at Jiazi with a distressed face, and from time to time wiped his hands and face for Jiazi, and tidied up the quilt—this quilt was still Jiazi specially brought.

"Has Azi woke up?" Sitting next to Jiazi, Lin Hai gently tested the temperature of Jiazi's forehead, and asked Qingfeng without turning his head.

"Master hasn't woken up all this time." Qing Feng said in a low voice: "The doctor has just seen it, and said that the master is just exhausted. But, uncle, why hasn't the master woke up?" Qing Feng has never seen it before. With Jiazi like this, he was naturally very anxious.Although the doctor Lin Hai invited just now had checked Jiazi's pulse and said that Jiazi was fine.But if Jia Zi didn't wake up, Qing Feng couldn't feel at ease.

Lin Hai held Jiazi's hand: "Qingfeng, go down and eat something first. I'll call you again when Azi wakes up." Lin Hai naturally understood that Jiazi had always taken care of Qingfeng, a maid, and naturally Just follow to take care of Qingfeng.Most importantly, Lin Hai wanted to be alone with Jazi for a while.

Qing Feng shook his head, and stood firmly at the side: "The servant will not leave, the servant will wait for the master to wake up."

For Jia Zi, a seemingly stupid but extremely loyal maid, Lin Hai had no other choice but to order someone to bring Qing Feng some food, so that Qing Feng could eat something while looking at Jia Zi.

Jiazi slept very deeply this time, and did not wake up until noon the next day because he was so hungry.

Looking at Lin Hai who was lying on the bed in surprise, Jia Zi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and made a silent movement towards the surprised Qing Feng, then lowered his voice and asked Qing Feng to bring him some food .

Qing Feng nodded heavily, and hurriedly ran out: the porridge was always simmering on the stove in the kitchen, and this time happened to be the best time for thick and thick texture.

Seeing Qingfeng's flustered appearance, Jiazi couldn't help feeling a little helpless, and then wanted to sit up: never lying down for such a long time, Jiazi felt his whole body was stiff.

"Azi," Lin Hai felt the people around him move in a daze, and quickly woke up. Then he saw Jiazi propping himself up and trying to sit up: "Are you awake?" Lin Hai looked at him with surprise. Jiazi quickly helped Jiazi up and let Jiazi lean in his arms.

After sleeping all night, Jiazi's voice was a little hoarse: "What's wrong with me?" Jiazi's last memory before he passed out was Lin's mother's burial, and he lost his memory of what happened after that.Therefore, she had no idea what was going on in front of her eyes.

"It's okay." Lin Hai squeezed Jia Zi's hand, and said softly, "Wait for me, I'll get you a glass of water."

Just holding Lin Hai's hand, Jia Zi drank two glasses of water, and then he felt better, and his throat didn't feel dry anymore.

"mother……"

"It's over." Holding Jiazi in his arms, Lin Hai held Jiazi's hand with one hand, and smoothed Jiazi's hair with the other hand, and said softly: "Azi, let's stay here for a few days first. , and then the ancestral house."

Jia Zi nodded lightly, and before he could speak, he saw Qing Feng walking in with a large tray.

"I'll do it." Lin Hai took the bowl from Qingfeng's hand, picked up a spoon to fill a spoonful of porridge, blew gently, and then handed it to Jiazi's mouth.

Jia Zi raised his eyebrows slightly, enjoying Lin Hai's rare service.It wasn't until he finished the third bowl of porridge that Jia Zi shook his head, indicating that he was full.

After letting Qingfeng go down to rest, Jia Zi also wanted Lin Hai to sleep for a while.During a meal, Jia Zi already understood what happened after she passed out, and also knew that Lin Hai had been with him the whole night last night even though it was not quite in line with the rules.

Lin Hai shook his head lightly: "I'm not sleepy." After saying that, Lin Hai and Jia Zi left the house together, and went to Lin Mu's grave together.

After burning some papers for Mother Lin, Jia Zi sighed softly: "Did I feel ashamed yesterday?" Jia Zi never thought that he would pass out suddenly.In Jia Zi's eyes, fainting should only be experienced by a weak bookworm like Jia Min.After all, Jiazi has never fainted after being on the battlefield for so many years.

"How could it be?" Seeing that there was no one else nearby except his own servant, Lin Hai secretly held Jia Zi's hand, and said softly, "Don't worry, there was a clan aunt who helped to explain what happened yesterday. It does not matter."

"Thank you if you have time." Jia Zi nodded lightly: "Actually, I should have come forward yesterday. But...you know, yesterday was the first time I fainted."

Lin Hai looked at Jiazi gently: "It's been a hard time for you these days. Azi, don't worry, I understand everything." Lin Hai naturally knew that Jiazi was really busy these days, and he was busy again. With the funeral and the busy work of supporting the spirit back to Gusu, exhaustion is inevitable.

"By the way, your uncle..." Jiazi also suddenly remembered that Lin Hai had mentioned before that he wanted her to meet his uncle.It's just that when Lin's mother was buried yesterday, she fell unconscious, so she naturally didn't know if Lin Hai's uncle had been there.

"It's okay," Lin Hai said softly, "There will always be opportunities in the future." Yesterday, Lin Hai's real uncle really came.Originally, Lin Hai wanted to lead Jiazi to meet his uncle after the funeral.However, due to Jiazi's sudden fainting, it didn't work out.Lin Hai's uncle didn't take it seriously, instead he asked Lin Hai to take good care of Jiazi, and it would not be too late to meet again when Jiazi recovered.

Jazi nodded slightly, but didn't say anything.Naturally, she understood Lin Hai's thoughts on wanting her to see her uncle: As the saying goes, if you love your uncle, Lin Hai's parents are gone, so your uncle is naturally the closest person.In fact, logically speaking, it should be Jia Zi who followed Lin Hai to Chang's house to meet Lin Hai's uncle.However, Jia Zi and Lin Hai both have filial piety after all, so naturally they cannot come to the door.Lin Hai could only let Jiazi meet his uncle under such circumstances.

Jiazi and Lin Hai lived in the hut guarding the tomb for a few days before returning to Lin's ancestral home in Gusu City.Due to filial piety, Lin Hai and Jia Zi could not live together like after marriage: Lin Hai directly lived in the front yard, while Jia Zi lived in the main courtyard.However, no one expected that upon returning to the Lin family, Lin Hai suddenly fell ill.

Lin Hai's illness was so severe that Jiazi was very worried. He hurriedly asked for a doctor, took care of Lin Hai, and arranged for the family's servants.

"Doctor, how is he?"

"Don't worry, ma'am," the old doctor stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Master Lin is fine, it's just that he has been worrying too much recently, and he suffered from a bit of wind and cold last night, which is why he fell ill." The old man prescribed a few medicines, drink it first and see." The old doctor said, secretly looking at Jia Zi.In the past few days, the most popular thing in Gusu City is probably the fact that Xinke Tanhua brought Fu Ling, the wife of the only female general in his dynasty, back to Gusu to observe his filial piety. Everyone wants to take a look at Tanhualang and the female general What does it look like.However, the Lin family is in the period of emphasizing filial piety, so it is easy to see no guests.Therefore, he finally had the opportunity to come to Lin's house, so he naturally wanted to take a good look at whether the female general really had grown heads and six arms.

Jia Zi nodded: "It's troublesome." Jia Zi signaled Qing Feng to send the doctor out, while he sat by Lin Hai's bed and put the cold handkerchief on Lin Hai's head.

Watching Lin Hai drink the medicine, Jiazi felt worried, and sat outside all the time dealing with family affairs: Although the two of them are keeping their filial piety now, there are still many things at home, and it is up to Jiazi to make up his mind.

"Master," Qingfeng came over lightly, whispered into Jiazi's ear, and said softly, "The two in the backyard..." What Qingfeng said was naturally the two aunts left by Father Lin .

Taking a careful look at Lin Hai, Jia Zi frowned: "What's wrong with them?"

"They're making trouble again." Qing Feng also frowned: "Master, go and have a look!" Due to his status, it's hard for Qing Feng to say anything about the two of them. You're welcome.

Leaving Lin Hai in the care of the servant, Jia Zi directly took Qing Feng to the back yard.Without even looking at the two women who were arguing endlessly, Jia Zi directly ordered to the butler Lin Fu: "Lin Fu, the two aunts are overly sad because of the death of the old lady, and they want to become a monk to keep filial piety for the old lady. You go to arrange Go to the nunnery, add more incense money, and let them go as soon as possible."

Lin Fu quickly nodded in response, and motioned to his wife and daughter-in-law with his eyes, quickly gagged the mouths of the two aunts, and dragged them down.Lin Fu didn't expect that these two women who had always lived peacefully as if they didn't exist, the old lady would make a fuss as soon as she passed away, pretending to be a concubine mother, and wanted to teach Jiazi a lesson.Due to his status, even if he disliked these two women, he could only ask Jia Zi to come and deal with them.He didn't even expect that Jia Zi would be so ruthless that he directly decided the future of the two of them - he was worried that Jia Zi could only endure this because of face, status, and filial piety. !Looking at it now, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief: the ancestors of the Lin family can also rest assured.

Jiazi didn't care what Lin Fu thought.After dealing with the two women, Jia Zi turned around and went back to the front yard: Lin Hai is much more important than the two restless and unintelligent women.Afterwards, Jiazi never asked about the two of them again, so he didn't know that Lin Fu chose a small and dilapidated nunnery in a remote mountain for the two of them. On days like that, they died one after another within a few years.

Lin Hai woke up in the middle of the night.As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Jazi.

"Are you awake?" As soon as Lin Hai moved, Jia Zi quickly put down the book he was reading, walked over, and raised his hand to test the temperature of Lin Hai's forehead.After realizing that the temperature had subsided a little, Jiazi breathed a sigh of relief: "The fever seems to have subsided a little. I'll go get you some porridge. Eat something to fill your stomach first, and then eat and drink."

As he spoke, Jiazi ordered the maid who had been guarding the door to bring some porridge to Lin Hai, and then the boiled medicine.

After feeding Lin Hai some light porridge, Jia Zi fed Lin Hai some medicine, and then pressed Lin Hai to the bed again.

"Sleep," patted Lin Hai lightly, and Jia Zi said in the tone he used to coax Jia Min when he was a child: "Just wake up and it will be fine."

Lin Hai took Jia Zi's hand: "I can't sleep."

Jia Zi nodded lightly, and tucked the blanket for Lin Hai: "Then I'll chat with you."

Jiazi chatted with Lin Hai until dawn, and Lin Hai fell asleep again.Jazi started to deal with family affairs again.After going on and on like this, it wasn't until a few days later that Lin Hai gradually began to recover.

"I see you," Jia Zi muttered as he fed Lin Hai medicine bit by bit, "It's just that I haven't exercised for a while. You, let's get up early for running and boxing!"

"I'll do it myself." Lin Hai stretched out his hand, trying to take the medicine bowl in Jia Zi's hand: After all, it's better for him to drink it in one gulp if he feeds it in such small sips!

Jia Zi naturally understood Lin Hai's thoughts, and said lightly, "I'll feed you. Let me tell you, I'm a rare waiter. Why, do you think I'm clumsy?"

"Why?" Lin Hai shook his head with a bitter face, "Aren't I afraid to trouble you?" Lin Hai is not stupid, and he naturally understands that drinking the medicine one mouthful at a time is much more painful than gulping it down directly.

"No trouble, no trouble." Jia Zi said with a relaxed face: "The doctor said, you have to drink medicine for a few more days." As soon as the words fell, Jia Zi saw Lin Hai's entire face wrinkled as he wished. got together.

It wasn't until Lin Hai's body recovered that Jiazi moved back to the backyard again.As for the matter of the two aunts, it was after Lin Hai recovered that Jia Zi told him.But Lin Hai was stunned for a while before realizing who Jiazi was talking about.However, he didn't care, just let Jazi handle it completely.

The days passed by day by day, and it was almost the end of the year in a blink of an eye.Although this New Year is the first New Year that Jiazi and Lin Hai spend together, but because of Lin's mother's death, they can neither drink alcohol nor eat meat.However, although the New Year of the two is not lively, it is also warm.

After the New Year, Jia Zi and Lin Hai's home also welcomed their first guest.

"Azi," Lin Hai looked at Jiazi who hurried into the hall, and said softly, "Let me introduce you, this is..."

Jia Zi looked at the person curiously, and couldn't help but be taken aback: "Why are you?"

The author has something to say: Mother Jia: Thank God, it was not my daughter who married.Otherwise, you will be filial when you get married, and this bad luck will have to fall on me, Min'er.

Jia Jing: My sister and brother-in-law lasted three years a day, and the relationship is so good that it will piss you off; when you come back, you will go to the hot springs, and after the bath, you still have to talk about your feelings, which will piss you off.

Lin Hai: You can eat food in mouthfuls, but you don’t need to drink medicines in mouthfuls, right?Bitter!

Jiazi: It's over, it's over, it's gone like this for the first time...
