[Red Chamber] Mrs. Lin replaced her

"Baby," Jia Zi hugged Lin Yan's chubby body, held Lin Yan's small face with both hands, and kissed him on the cheek with a smile: "Why, are you still angry with your mother?" Jia Zi said, naturally It was the matter of reprimanding him in front of Jia's mother and everyone in the Grand View Garden.

Suddenly being hugged by Jia Zi, Lin Yan looked at Jia Zi full of surprises, never expecting such a good thing.However, looking at Jiazi's smiling face, Lin Yan shook his head: "I'm not mad at my mother! But," Lin Yan said casually, pointing his fingers, "I'd be happier if there were candied haws "In fact, Lin Yan was not angry with Jiazi at first: if Jiazi hadn't mentioned it suddenly, he would have forgotten it.What's more, seeing that Jia Zi didn't even ride a horse, and got into the carriage to coax him, Lin Yan lost all his anger.

"Little greedy ghost." Jiazi smiled and pinched Lin Yan's nose, with a mysterious look: "It's just right, I'm also greedy for candied haws. Tell me, the two of us will go buy it secretly, so that your father and I won't let you buy it." Brother and sister know, okay?"

Lin Yan blinked his eyes, and just about to agree, he heard Lin Daiyu cough lightly.

"I'm still here!" Lin Daiyu looked at Lin Yan with a smile, and then said indifferently, "If someone is willing to invite me to eat candied haws, then I just pretend not to know."

"Mother's treat." Lin Yan generously agreed, holding his head high as if "you can eat as much as you want": "Sister, don't tell father and brother."

Lin Yan is greedy for food, and his favorite is all kinds of snacks.Lin Hai was worried that he would eat too many snacks and would not eat well, so he restricted Lin Yan and forbade him to buy food outside.Now that he heard that Jiazi was going to buy him candied haws, he naturally had to hide it from Lin Hai, lest Lin Hai would confiscate his candied haws after he found out.As for Lin Hui, it was definitely Lin Yan's careful thinking: to prevent Lin Hui from competing with him for food - Lin Hui was older, and he must eat faster than him, and Lin Yan had no confidence that he could compete with Lin Hui.

Of course, what Lin Yan didn't know was that Lin Hai already knew about the fact that he secretly hid a cabinet of snacks in the cabinet.However, Lin Hai found it very interesting to see Lin Yan's self-conscious appearance.Therefore, he didn't expose Lin Yan's little tricks, he just ordered the servants in Lin Yan's yard to look after those things, not to let Lin Yan eat too much, and then let Lin Yan ghostly go to the small cabinet Secretly stuffed snacks.

Hearing Lin Yan's forthright words, Jia Zi pinched Lin Yan's cheek with a smile: "Why didn't you treat me? Your father and brother never restricted me from eating candied haws?" Jia Zi said, "I'm not with you. Same, I don’t need to secretly eat” look.

"But," Lin Yan looked at Jia Zi with bright eyes, and said confidently, "Mother's monthly income is more than mine!"

Seeing Lin Yan's expression of "It's not that I'm stingy, it's that you are richer than me", Lin Daiyu couldn't help laughing, while Jiazi shook his head and said with a serious face: "I'm There is no monthly payment."

Lin Yan looked at Jia Zi with an unbelievable look, completely unbelievable that Jia Zi didn't even have a monthly payment; while Lin Daiyu covered her mouth with her hand, watching Lin Yan's incredible expression, her eyes and brows were full of smiles: Of course Jiazi has no monthly money, the monthly money of the entire Lin Mansion is paid by Jiazi, even Lin Hai's money is in Jiazi's hands!

"Then..." Lin Yan looked at Lin Daiyu, licked his lips, and hesitated for a while: "I'm going to treat you." In fact, Lin Yan originally wanted Lin Daiyu to treat her.But thinking of Lin Daiyu's words before, in the end Lin Yan decided to take the money to treat Jia Zi and Lin Daiyu who are poorer than himself to eat candied haws: next time, Lin Daiyu must treat them.

This is not to say that Lin Yan's monthly income is low or something.On the contrary, his money is more than many children of the same age: In addition to the monthly money, Jia Zi and Lin Hai will also give him some extra rewards based on Lin Yan's performance, plus he has received a lot from Du Ruo, Feng Tang, etc. There are also a lot of treasures cheated.Therefore, although Lin Yan is young, his private treasury is also very thick.

It's just that he needs to buy snacks with his money, and also buys gifts for Jiazi, Lin Hai, Lin Hui, and Lin Daiyu for three festivals and two birthdays... Thinking about it this way, Lin Yan has a deep sense of crisis, and he always has to worry about his own health. Money is not enough.

Therefore, it was very difficult for him to invite Jiazi and Lin Daiyu with money this time.However, the sweet and sour taste of candied haws tempted him, so he had to take out his own money to invite his mother and sister.

Lin Yan's reluctance made Jiazi and Lin Daiyu laugh at the same time: Unexpectedly, this little fat man is really "generous" for candied haws!

Of course, the money to buy the candied haws was still paid by Jiazi.Moreover, Jiazi also bought many other snacks for Lin Yan, which made Lin Yan feel relieved and even more pleasantly surprised.

"Mother," Lin Yan happily bit off a candied haws, and mumbled, "I like you the most."

"It's so good." Jia Zi smiled and touched Lin Yan's head, and said softly: "Yan'er, you know, the nonsense things my mother said in the Grand View Garden today, and there is no tutor, although she said it to you , but not about you."

Lin Yan tilted his head to look at Jia Zi, and swallowed the candied haws in his mouth with difficulty: "I know. My brother taught me something, that is called referring to sang and scolding Huai." It is not referring to the mulberry tree, nor is it referring to the locust tree.It's just that, when his rotten elder brother said so, there must be a reason for what he said. Now he just needs to know that referring to mulberry and cursing pagoda tree has nothing to do with mulberry trees or pagoda trees.

"We are so smart, we even know how to point fingers and scold Huai." Jia Zi held Lin Yan's face with a smile, and said happily: "As long as we know that mother is really not saying that we are messing around. And, Yan'er did that to protect her sister, mother knows, Yan'er did a very good job."

"Yeah." Lin Yan licked the candied haws and nodded heavily: "I will protect my sister well." Thinking of what Lin Hui had told him before, Lin Yan nodded heavily: "His sister is so good." , will intercede for him, teach him his homework, and buy him good things. Of course, he must protect his sister well, lest his sister be bullied by those bad things.

Seeing Lin Yan's appearance, Lin Daiyu also breathed a sigh of relief.Although she knew very well that what Jia Zi said in the Grand View Garden today was obviously saying that Jia Baoyu was a mess and had no tutor.However, she really didn't know how to tell Lin Yan the truth, and she didn't know how to explain to Lin Yan why Jia Zi obviously wanted to reprimand Jia Baoyu but ended up reprimanding him.

However, Lin Daiyu never expected that Jia Zi would take the initiative to mention this matter to Lin Yan, and simply coaxed Lin Yan with a few candied haws and some snacks.And what Lin Daiyu didn't expect was that Lin Yan, who has always been a man who doesn't take his studies seriously, even knows how to criticize and scold Huai, and can even use them in practice accurately.This made Lin Daiyu sincerely praise: what a smart little fat man.

In Lin Daiyu's eyes, the "smart little fat guy" Lin Yan didn't notice Lin Daiyu's complicated mood at all. While eating the candied haws in his hand quickly, he stared closely at the one in Lin Daiyu's hand that he hadn't even eaten a few bites, and felt that he was in a hurry. He kept urging himself to speed up, and pestered Lin Daiyu after eating, asking Lin Daiyu to give him the candied haws in her hand.To the extent that Lin Daiyu loves him, she will definitely let him - Lin Yan thought happily in his heart.

However, before Lin Yan could speak to Lin Daiyu, the group of people had already returned to the Lin Mansion.

Feeling the carriage slowly stop at the gate of his house, Lin Yan didn't care about the candied haws that he hadn't swallowed yet, and directly bit down on the candied haws that Lin Daiyu was holding in his hand...

Seeing that a large piece of candied haws was bitten off by Lin Yan in one bite, and then at Lin Yan's bulging cheeks, Lin Daiyu shook her head with a smile, and stuffed the candied haws in her hand into Lin Yan's hand, and then put the Taking the stick in Lin Yan's hand to his own, he poked Lin Yan's face again, and said with a smile, "I'll change it with you."

Lin Yan looked at his original bare stick, and looked at Lin Daiyu embarrassedly, but his hand was tightly holding the candied haws that Lin Daiyu had just stuffed for her, as if anyone who dared to snatch it from him would be in a hurry. appearance.

Jiazi looked at Lin Yan helplessly, and unconsciously had an illusion that he and Lin Hai were abusing him: Otherwise, how could he be so voracious when facing the most common candied haws? It looks like I can't eat it anymore!

Knowing that Jiazi was back, Lin Hai rushed out to greet him.Seeing that Jia Zi came down from the carriage, coupled with Jia Zi's forced expression on his face, Lin Hai asked concerned: "What's the matter, what happened?"

Jia Zi looked at Lin Hai, and shook his head slightly: Do you want her to tell Lin Hai that she felt that their son had been abused, and that when she saw the candied haws, she looked like a hungry wolf who hadn't eaten for several meals?If that was the case, Lin Yan would probably be able to hold her leg and cry about why Lin Hai didn't allow him to eat snacks, and how he forced him to study all day long and didn't give him time to play.

Jiazi's silence made Lin Hai very worried. He didn't even care about the candied haws that Lin Yan hid behind him immediately after jumping off the carriage, so he took Jiazi's hand and asked softly, "Azi, what's the matter?" Come on, tell me quickly, okay? Did someone bully you?"

Although in Lin Hai's view, even if they lent some courage to the people of Rongguo Mansion, they would not dare to bully Jiazi; however, facing Jiazi's rarely shown expression, Lin Hai couldn't help worrying: Could it be that Rongguo Mansion People in the government really think that there is a beautiful concubine in the palace, so they can be confident and unscrupulous?

Jiazi raised his eyebrows, the obvious concern for Lin Hai was naturally very beneficial; but, she doesn't seem to be so easy to be bullied, right?

Before Lin Yan got out of the car, he saw Lin Hai.Thinking of Lin Hai scolding him with a stern face, Lin Yan directly hid the candied haws that Lin Daiyu had just stuffed for him behind his back without even thinking about it.Originally, he was still worried that Lin Hai would find the candied haws he was hiding behind his back and immediately confiscate them.However, after waiting for a while, he found that Lin Hai didn't seem to notice the candied haws in his hand, so he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Carefully swallowing the candied haws in his mouth, Lin Yan's small body sneaked in through the door under the cover of the guards and servants at the door.

Seeing Lin Yan's appearance, Jia Zi couldn't help laughing happily.

Seeing that Jia Zi finally smiled, Lin Hai breathed a sigh of relief.Then, he saw Lin Yan's creeping appearance at a glance, and couldn't help being annoyed and funny: "Lin Yan."

"Hey." Lin Yan stood there in a jerk, holding a candied haws in his hand, blinking at Lin Hai.Next, Lin Yan suddenly put his hand holding the candied haws behind his back, with a guilty smile on his face: "Father, I don't have anything... I don't know." Originally, Lin Yan wanted to say that he had nothing. However, in the end Lin Yan changed the subject, lest Lin Hai hear the word eat and think of the candied haws in his hand.

Lin Yan's appearance of not having 300 taels of silver here made Jiazi, Lin Hai, Lin Daiyu and the servants at the door laugh out loud.And this kind of laughter made Lin Yan a little uneasy: Did Lin Hai find his candied haws?

Lin Hai looked at his youngest son who was sometimes stupid, and really couldn't bear to bully him anymore.Therefore, just when Lin Yan was about to risk being confiscated by Lin Hai, and took another bite of the candied haws, Lin Hai smiled and asked, "What are you holding in your hand?"

"No, no!" Lin Yan shook his head: "I didn't hold anything in my hand!" In order to match his own words, Lin Yan nodded heavily, with an affirmative look.

Lin Hai looked at Lin Yan helplessly: "It's time for dinner, don't eat too many snacks." After Lin Hai finished speaking, he took Jiazi's hand and walked slowly towards the gate.Lin Hai really couldn't figure out what Lin Yan was afraid of: Could it be that he could let someone snatch the half-eaten, drool-filled candied haws from his hands?

Hearing that Lin Hai did not intend to confiscate his candied haws, Lin Yan couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief: the candied haws were finally saved.If he had known earlier, he would have asked Jazi to buy a few more.

Just when Lin Yan breathed a sigh of relief, Lin Hai's voice came again: "Next time I find you lying, just try."

Facing Lin Hai's sharp eyes, Lin Yan bit his candied haws in his mouth and nodded stiffly.

Seeing Lin Yan's appearance, Lin Hai quickly turned around and led Jia Zi away.It wasn't until he reached a place where Lin Yan could not see that Lin Hai couldn't help laughing loudly: "Azi, have you seen what Yan'er looks like? Haha...it's really fun."

Seeing Lin Hai's happy smile, Jia Zi slapped Lin Hai amusedly: "There is no one like you, who even bullies his own son."

"Huh," Lin Hai said with a smile on his face, "Who made him come here? If he eats candied haws in a big way, how can I bully him! By the way, you are honored in the past today." What happened to the government?"

Jia Zi raised his eyebrows and told Lin Hai directly.Hearing that Mother Jia actually let Jia Baoyu live with a group of girls in the provincial family villa, Lin Hai was naturally very surprised: "How could this be? Even if the people in Rongguo Mansion are ignorant, don't those girls care about their own reputations?" Is it done?"

Jiazi raised his eyebrows: "What do you think?"

Lin Hai was taken aback by Jia Zi's question, then shook his head lightly, with a smile on his face.In fact, Lin Hai also understands that there are a few girls who live in Rongguo Mansion who really care about their reputation: not to mention the rumors of a golden and jade marriage that are rumored outside, but because of the unusually close appearance of those girls and Jia Baoyu. His reputation has already been almost ruined.

Seeing Lin Hai's appearance of having nothing to do with himself, Jia Zi directly told the story that Jia's mother still wanted Lin Daiyu to live in the Grand View Garden without thinking about it.

Sure enough, as Jia Zi had expected, Lin Hai was furious when he heard Jia Zi's words: "What did you say? How dare she..."

Seeing Lin Hai's ashen face, Jia Zi nodded, and added fuel to the fire: "Why is she afraid? It's just relying on the old to sell the old."

"Hmph," Lin Hai said angrily, "She thinks beautifully. If she wants to plot against my daughter, she has to see if she can afford the price."

Seeing the strange curve of Lin Hai's mouth, Jia Zi suddenly felt a little sympathy for Jia Mu: "Rongguo Mansion is going to be in trouble now."

Sure enough, in the next few days, Jia Zheng was reprimanded several times by his superiors one after another, and it was also reported that Jia Baoyu had an ambiguous behavior with Jiang Yuhan, a famous singer who sang Xiaodan.If Jiang Yuhan was just an ordinary actor, maybe this incident might just be a romantic affair—after all, it is not uncommon for this Guixun family to raise male favorites.However, Jiang Yuhan is a member of the theater troupe raised by Prince Zhongshun, and he is also a member of Prince Zhongshun. This will make things worse: Prince Zhongshun's biological mother is the famous Concubine Zhengui, the emperor's favorite woman; People are also known to be rampant and domineering in the whole city, and no one dares to provoke them.Therefore, Jia Baoyu really hit the iron plate this time, and no one can protect him.Naturally, this is a later story.

"What are you thinking about?" After dinner, Lin Hai accompanied Jiazi for a walk in the garden, seeing Jiazi's rare silent appearance, gently squeezed Jiazi's hand, and said softly: "I'm still here." Thinking about that? Don't worry, I'm the one to do this, so you don't have to worry. "

"What?" Jia Zi looked at Lin Hai puzzled, and said with a smile, "I was thinking about that Leng Xiang Wan." Regarding the matter of Leng Xiang Wan, Jia Zi didn't believe it at all.In Jiazi's view, the fairy prescriptions from the sea are the same as the seller of dog skin plasters under the overpass who said that his family's prescriptions were handed down by eighteen generations of ancestors.It's just that those who sell dog skin plasters are trying to cheat money, and Aunt Xue is trying to raise Xue Baochai's worth.

Lin Hai rubbed Jiazi's head: "It's just the housewife's method, and you don't need to worry about it."

"The methods of the housewives?" Jia Zi raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile, "You seem to understand it very well! Tell me, how do you know the methods of these housewives?"

Lin Hai smiled, took Jazi's hand and walked forward.To be honest, Lin Hai really didn't expect that Aunt Xue would think of such a trick.It should be said that she really deserves to be Mrs. Wang's own sister-in those days, Mrs. Wang was able to raise Jia Baoyu's value by thinking of giving birth to jade, and now, Aunt Xue used such weird things as Lengxiang pills to raise Jia Baochai's value. worth.

As for the efficacy of Lengxiang Wan, Lin Hai didn't believe it at all.As the famous Tan Hua Lang, who came from a well-known scholarly family, Lin Hai has read countless books and knows a lot of strange things.However, he has never heard of any prescription for Lengxiang Pills, let alone a disease that can be cured with only the pistil.

"Hmph," Jia Zi murmured softly, looking at Lin Hai's unreliable appearance, "I even know the tricks of housewives. I don't know how many tricks of housewives I have seen before I have such insight." .”

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lin Hai looked at Jia Zi helplessly, "Don't tell me you don't know why that woman suddenly took out such a prescription?" But she didn't doubt Aunt Xue's intentions at all, Lin Hai would definitely not believe it.

Looking at Lin Hai's look of "you know why I can't", Jiazi curled his lips: "Of course I know. But, what I'm curious about is how did you know that this is the trick of the housewife?"

"I'm not stupid," Lin Hai said with a smile: "Of course you can understand this kind of thing once you think about it. Besides, don't forget that the woman from the Xue family and Jia Baoyu's mother were both from the royal family of Jinling This method of elevating one's own child to belittle others is naturally full of strange things and emerges endlessly."

Jia Zi looked at Lin Hai, and nodded lightly: "That's true. Except for Wang Xifeng, who is superficial, the women who are related to Wang are really not easy to use." Thinking of Wang Ziteng's wife, she is also superficial A virtuous and vicious master, Jia Zi curled her lips: This woman from the Wang family has always been bold and bold, and she really can do anything.But, Wang Xifeng...

To be honest, Jiazi had some doubts about whether Wang Xifeng was Wang Zisheng's biological daughter: Look at Mrs. Wang, then Aunt Xue, and Xue Baochai, the niece of Wang's family. How could anyone be as stupid as Wang Xifeng—for the so-called Her aunt got to the point where she even lost her husband and son-in-law, and even used her own money to subsidize the Duke of Rongguo Mansion: the housekeepers were all in charge, and only Wang Xifeng managed to sell her own dowry—— If Jia Lian hadn't said it himself, Jia Zi really couldn't believe that the Wang family was born with such a stupid woman.

"By the way," Lin Hai said suddenly, "Now that the family-speaking villas in Rongguo Mansion have all been built, the little Wang's..." The little Wang's is naturally referring to Wang Xifeng.At first, the Rongguo Mansion kept Wang Xifeng on the grounds that the construction of the Yingying Villa needed someone to supervise it. Now that the Rongguo Mansion's Yingying Villa has been completed, Wang Xifeng's fate has become a problem again.

Jia Zi pouted, with a look of disdain: "I heard from She She that her elder brother Wang Ren is going to Beijing. Therefore, she should stay in Rongguo Mansion for a while. Of course, this Exactly how long it will be is unknown."

Hearing Jia Zi's words, Lin Hai really didn't know what to say: Wang Xifeng was already Jia Lian's next wife, and normally, Wang Xifeng should have left Jia's house with her dowry.However, Wang Xifeng stayed again and again.This really made the people of the capital watch a good joke.Even now, someone has opened a bet on when Wang Xifeng will leave Rongguo Mansion.

Lin Hai also shook his head lightly: "How did Lian'er marry such a woman back then?"

Jia Zi curled his lips: "Unlucky! They thought that if Lian'er married a daughter of Bai Ding who had a good name but no power in her natal family, Jia Baoyu would be able to obtain the inheritance right of Rongguo Mansion. It's a pity, they Unexpectedly, the title of the Rongguo Mansion has come to an end when it falls into the hands of Prudence. Hmph, do you really think that you will get the favor of the Holy One and pass on the title? Prudence doesn't have such a face." This They, of course, refer to Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, Jia Zheng and others.

A smile appeared on Lin Hai's face: "The most important thing is, they didn't expect that Lian'er would divorce that little Wang family, right?" In any family, a woman who was divorced by her husband's family is a A very shameful thing.Therefore, although Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng are not big figures, the impact of this incident on the Wang family is really not small.

"Wang Xifeng is like that," Jiazi said disdainfully, "It's what he deserves if he gets divorced."

"Speaking of which," Lin Hai stroked Jia Zi's hair and said with a smile, "Lian'er should probably consider marrying another wife!"

The author has something to say: How about Jia Lian marrying the daughter of Mei Hanlin in the original book?Baoqin will not marry that Mei Hanlin's son.The other thing is about Yingchun. There is an urge to marry Yingchun to Liu Xianglian.

small theater:

Lin Yan: I'm so poor, and some people want me to treat you, it's really insincere

Lin Daiyu: Fortunately, I gave the candied haws to the little fat man, otherwise my father would have seen it

Xue Baochai: I just took a medicine, why are you making such a fuss?

Wang Xifeng: What I have is a dowry, I am willing to subsidize it, can you control it?
