The Hulk of the Red Chamber

Lin Ruhai seemed to be in good spirits, and his complexion was not too bad. Seeing Shi Hong coming in, he asked his servants to help him up. Shi Hong hurried forward, trying to stop him, but Lin Ruhai shook his head, and then sat up by himself. Shi Hong had no choice but to take a big pillow, put it on Lin Ruhai's back, and took a coat from the servant who was waiting on the side, put it on Lin Ruhai, and said, "Why do you do this, teacher? Students can't serve the teacher. Before the bed, it is already unfilial, how can you still work hard for the teacher!"

Lin Ruhai shook his head, and said: "I know in my heart, what a waste, it's just an ordinary wind and cold, after a few days of rest, my bones are going to be stiff, just sit up and relax!"

Seeing that Lin Ruhai was in good spirits and didn't seem reluctant, Shi Hong let go of most of his thoughts, and asked about Lin Ruhai's illness again: "What did the imperial doctor say?"

Lin Ruhai said casually: "I didn't say anything just now, it's just a cold feeling!"

Shi Hong couldn't believe why he had to stay in bed for so long due to the cold, and he didn't treat himself as an outsider, so he just asked someone to come over with the pulse record and the prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor. Scholars these days also need to know a little bit of medical skills, Shi Hong Hong also read a few books on common medical skills, and there are some prescriptions for commonly used medicines at home. He knows a little bit about medical science and pharmacology. Most of them are gas.Based on his experience, he really can't see anything wrong, it's just that it's winter, Lin Ruhai really caught the cold accidentally, and his body is not very good, that's why he got sick, as long as he takes good care of himself That's about it.

After handing over Fangzi and pulse case to his servants, Shi Hong said with a relaxed expression, "Since the teacher is fine, the student can rest assured!"

"What kind of teacher do you call your child?" Lin Ruhai said with a smile.

Shi Hong immediately understood, hit the snake with the stick, and yelled, "My lord father-in-law!"

Lin Ruhai smiled when he heard it. He stretched out his hand and pulled Shi Hong to sit down by the bed, and said softly: "Hong'er, you have always been a good boy, but you are not rigid about etiquette. Hey, if I have a son, I will have three years with you." I'm satisfied if I share it, but that's okay, now you can be regarded as my son-in-law, and I'm actually taking advantage of it!"

"Father-in-law, why did you say that? Being able to get his father-in-law's support and support, and marrying his junior sister, is the blessing that Shi Hong has cultivated in several lifetimes!" Shi Hong quickly stood up and said.

"Okay, I won't say any more polite words!" Lin Ruhai looked at Shi Hong with a little hope, but sighed, "I have to say that I have been proud of my official career in this life, and I can get to this point." One step, even if you are not a very high-ranking minister, the difference is not too much. When your mother-in-law was alive, our husband and wife were also very affectionate, but the only regret is that we have not been able to continue the blood of the Lin family!"

Shi Hong was stunned, and Lin Ruhai grabbed his hand with a slight force, and said without hesitation: "In my life, the relationship between children and daughters is not good. When I get old, I will only have a daughter, Yu'er. According to what I said when I was in Jiangnan It means that I hope to recruit a son-in-law for Yuer, but who is really ambitious, who is willing to do this, and how can someone who is not ambitious be worthy of my daughter. Can suppress, if I go, Yu'er has a pure heart, I'm afraid it will suffer because of it, and this will give up this thought!" What he didn't say was that Taijun Jia Shi once promised Lin Ruhai that if Lin Daiyu married Jia Baoyu, there would be a future marriage between Lin Daiyu and Jia Baoyu. Give one of their sons the surname Lin and inherit the Lin family. Therefore, Lin Ruhai was relieved to entrust Lin Daiyu to the Jia family.It's just that both the Jia family and Jia Baoyu have failed Lin Ruhai's expectations. For such a family, if you make a mistake, you may ruin your daughter's life.However, this is also a solution. Now that the two families are engaged, Lin Ruhai is counting on the historian.

Shi Hong was not a fool, he immediately understood what Lin Ruhai meant, and he never gave up the idea of ​​leaving a queen for the Lin family.He himself was hopeless, so he counted on Lin Daiyu.Anyway, there is indeed such a thing these days. Let a child inherit the blood of his wife's family from his mother's surname. : "Father-in-law, don't worry, the second son of my junior sister and I will inherit the surname Lin!"

Lin Ruhai was really overjoyed this time, his eyes almost shed tears, and he held Shi Hong's hand even harder, and he could almost see the blue blood vessels exposed, he almost laughed and said: "Okay, okay, Good! So, I have an explanation for the ancestors of the Lin family! Hong'er, I am sure you are right!" Shi Hong promised so happily, but Lin Ruhai did not expect that, you know, Shi Ding is only Shi Hong As for the son, sending a son out for nothing is not adopted to the same clan, but adopted to the wife clan, and most people would hesitate.

Lin Ruhai had suffered from the biggest heart disease, and suddenly he was in high spirits. If it wasn't for the fact that he was still ill and didn't have much strength, he would have asked his servants to order wine and vegetables, so that he and Shi Hong could drink relatively freely.

Shi Hong talked with Lin Ruhai for a while, the court was still calm at the moment, after Lin Ruhai listened to a few words, he didn't say any more, the next thing was nothing more than the family visits of a few concubines. up.Although this has nothing to do with the historians of the Lin family, it happened to involve the Jia family, which is related to both families.

Lin Ruhai had also seen the blueprint of the family-speaking villa. The Jia family bought it everywhere and never shy away from people. Instead, they made a big fuss, lest people would not know that their family had a concubine. For antique calligraphy and painting, Lin Ruhai has worked in the salt administration for many years. Unlike most scholar-bureaucrats in this era, he doesn’t know much about economics. The money that the family poured into it must have exceeded one million taels, or even more.

Not to mention anything else, frugality has always been advocated nowadays. Of course, this is also because he really has no room for extravagance, the treasury is empty, and the money in the inner treasury is not so rich. Deliberately guiding and indulging, but he can do it, but you can't really just climb along. That's not catering to the holy will, adding face to the royal family, but recklessly taking the holy will and living up to the holy grace.

If the Jia family commits any crimes, of course they will not be implicated, but at that time, if they do not do their best to make things right, they will be indifferent. Afterwards, you can't leave it alone. The Jia family doesn't seem to be that kind. A person with strong self-esteem and a sense of shame.

It's not that Lin Ruhai and Shi Ding haven't tried to persuade the Jia family, but in the end, nothing worked. In the past, Shi Ding was counting on the Jia family to pay back the deficit of the national treasury. Now it seems that even if the Jia family has a heart, There's nothing I can do now.

Lin Ruhai was happy at the moment, so naturally he would not say anything to spoil the fun, so he quickly changed the subject and talked about some household matters.He is not that kind of old-fashioned moral gentleman. To Lin Daiyu, he was actually raised as a son at the beginning, and Shi Hong was already a sure-fire son-in-law, so he talked about Lin Daiyu. Of course, in Lin Ruhai's mouth, he himself Of course, there is nothing wrong with my daughter.

Shi Hong also agreed with this. To be honest, if Lin Daiyu is such a beautiful woman with a beautiful heart, she would never be able to turn to him in her previous life anyway. Through this kind of thing, she really has the ability to turn a passer-by into a winner in life. ability.In the past few months, Shi Hong and Lin Daiyu have maintained a relationship similar to pen pals. From the words on the paper, it can be seen that Lin Daiyu is not as narrow-minded as the TV novels say, but rather open-minded. Shi Hong was even more pleasantly surprised by his relatively narrow temper. He really didn't want to marry back a so-called noble lady whose eyes were only limited to one-third of an acre of land in the inner house. Children are better.

In the backyard of the Lin family, Lin Daiyu was leaning on the soft couch, looking a little tired. These days, Lin Ruhai's illness reminded her of what happened when Jia Min was seriously ill when she was young, and it made her feel fearful. Putting it down for a while, he asked again: "Father's medicine is ready, I'll send it to my father!"

Xueyan hurriedly said: "Girl, the medicine is ready, but the girl can't go there now, the master is talking to the uncle!"

Lin Daiyu was taken aback, and immediately knew that it was Shi Hong who was talking about, her face flushed, but she still said: "Even if senior brother is here, father can't stop using the medicine! Or, Zijuan, Xueyan, you can give the medicine to my father for me." Send it over!"

Xueyan and Zijuan quickly agreed and left the house one after the other.Chunxian came in with a tray: "Girl, the bird's nest snow clam porridge just made, girl, use some!"

Lin Daiyu sighed: "Father is still sick, how can I be in the mood!"

Zhao Nanny persuaded from the side: "Girl should use it anyway. The master has been thinking about nothing but the girl's affairs. If the girl doesn't care about herself and let the master know, she won't feel at ease!"

Lin Daiyu sighed softly, still took the spoon, took a few mouthfuls, then put the spoon down and asked Chunxian to remove the things, and then asked: "How long has the senior brother been here?"

Zhao Nanny said: "Master Shijia has been here for more than an hour, but just now the girl was busy managing the accounts, so she never mentioned it to the girl! Don't worry, girl, the uncle Shijia always knows well, and he won't tire the master!"

Lin Daiyu thought for a while, and then ordered the kitchen to prepare lunch for Shi Hong alone. At this moment, Xueyan and Zijuan also came back happily.Both of them were very satisfied with Shi Hong, they sent the medicine, Shi Hong took it directly, and personally served Lin Ruhai to use the medicine, seeing that Shi Hong was so filial to his master, both of them felt that Shi Hong was of great character Jia, he is indeed my daughter's lover.
