The Lin family has a female named Qingyun [Red Mansion]

November [-]th was Jia Zheng's birthday, Lin Ruhai was too busy with official duties, so he could only ask Daiyu to prepare the birthday gift first, and at noon he went directly from the household department to Jia's mansion to congratulate him with two glasses of wine.Unexpectedly, before the noon break, I suddenly saw two colleagues smiling and saying "Congratulations".

"Why do you like it?" Lin Ruhai didn't care at first.

The two said: "Shangshu Lin, don't you know? Just now, the sage issued a decree that Jia Nu Shi of Fengyi Palace was named Shangshu of Fengzao Palace and a concubine of virtuous virtue. Just now her father Jia Zheng has entered the palace to thank you. You two The in-laws of the mansion, don't you want to congratulate Lin Shangshu?"

"Don't dare, it's all due to the grace of the Holy Lord." Lin Ruhai was humble on the surface, but her heart was full of ups and downs, completely shocked by the sudden news.

Jia Nushi and Jia Yuanchun, the eldest niece who was born on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

Lin Ruhai always felt that something was wrong with this matter, not to mention other things, Yuan Chun had been in the palace for a long time, and she had already passed her young age, and seeing the age when she was about to leave the palace, she suddenly said that she was a concubine, everyone knew it was weird.At the beginning, Yuanchun entered the palace as the eldest daughter of the Duke's mansion to be a female historian. Everyone knew Sima Zhaozhi's heart. After all these years, he still couldn't get the patronage. I don't know how many people secretly joked about it. The Jia family must not be reconciled. , but how could the emperor change his mind?

Lin Ruhai felt a chill down his spine for no reason.

The emperor is the lord of the world, extremely honorable, wouldn't it be terrifying to change the emperor's mind?I hope the Jia family will not be so stupid.

At this time, Lin Ruhai didn't think much about it, he just thought that the eldest niece used some tricks.Since Jia's family has a noble concubine, there must be a lot of congratulatory people today, so they simply ordered the housekeeper to send a generous gift on the grounds of busy business, so that people can't pass for now.When the servant returned to the mansion, he always felt that there was something he couldn't let go of. Before he could think about it, he saw that Qingyun had sent a girl to invite her.

"What's the matter, Miss?" Lin Ruhai recognized this girl as the egret beside Lin Qingyun.

"I don't know. The two girls are together, and they don't know what to say. They don't look very good." Bailu only heard a few words, which seemed to be related to Jia's concubine, but as a servant, he didn't dare to discuss casually.

Lin Ruhai was puzzled by what he heard, so the two of them wouldn't quarrel and ask him to comment, right?

When they arrived at Lin Qingyun's room, Lin Qingyun only asked the girls to leave, and made hot tea for Lin Ruhai himself.Lin Ruhai looked at the two of them carefully, but Lin Qingyun couldn't see it. Daiyu obviously frowned deeply, as if she was confused, but also faintly anxious and worried. Seeing him, her eyes lit up as if she had seen a savior.

"Father!" Daiyu didn't care about tact, and there was no outsider at the moment, so she asked directly: "Father, is there a precedent for double-word titles in the dynasty?"

Lin Ruhai was stunned, and immediately thought of Jia Yuanchun's title "Xiande", and finally understood where the uneasiness that had been hanging in his heart came from.There has never been a living concubine conferred a double-character title, double-character, it is a posthumous title!Why did the emperor give such a special title?Could it be... Jia Yuanchun is dead in the eyes of the emperor?What did the Jia family or Jia Yuanchun do?

"Daddy?" Seeing that he was silent, Daiyu's guess became more and more certain.

Lin Ruhai came back to his senses, and asked with a smile, "Why do you think of asking this?"

"Today is my second uncle's birthday, but it's a double blessing. The saint ordered my eldest cousin to be a concubine Xiande. I came back and told my elder sister Qingyun, but my sister said that my eldest cousin's title was weird, and that she had never heard of a double-word title." .I thought, isn’t it? Is it possible that the eldest cousin is especially favored by the Holy One? But I always feel that it is not appropriate, so I asked my father.”

Lin Ruhai glanced at Lin Qingjun, sighed and said: "I don't think it's appropriate to be a father, I'm afraid there are other inside stories about this matter. Don't mention this matter outside, and don't let the news even go to Jia's side. It's a child who is rejected. , provoking holy wrath is great."

Daiyu moved her lips, but finally pressed her lips together tightly.How could she not know that Jia's family is now at a time of rejoicing, so they listened to her conjecture abruptly, and scolding her for nonsense would be light.Furthermore, if it is spread out, it is said that it is dissatisfied with the imperial decree and guesses the holy will, then it is not a misdemeanor.

At this time, Jia's house was really lively, with wine and operas set up, and guests coming and going, it was like a fire cooking oil.

In the evening, all the people sat around Jiamu's place, all of them were happy, as if they were honored.Mrs. Wang, who has always been like a bodhisattva with a wooden face, also has a ruddy complexion today, with a smile on her mouth, wearing a joyful and luxurious dress, and she feels elated.Sitting next to her are the mother and daughter of the Xue family. Aunt Xue is really happy, but at the same time she thinks that it would be better. Wouldn't it be more reliable to rely on each other than others.Baochai also has longing in her heart, even though she is dignified and self-restraining on weekdays, she has her own arrogance in her heart.She has always been conceited that she doesn't need to be inferior to others, but the difference is that she was born, and there are few opportunities. If she can enter the palace, why not worry about her future!

"Old Ancestor, what does the eldest cousin look like? I have never seen it before." At this time, a girl in red sitting next to Mother Jia asked with a smile.This is Shi Xiangyun. Although his appearance is a bit inferior to Sanchun, he has a free and easy personality, loves to talk and laugh, and is the only blood left by Jiamu's eldest nephew who died young. Jiamu takes pity on him and often takes him over the house. stay.

Mother Jia hugged her and said with a smile: "Why haven't I seen it? But you were too young to remember that's all. It's really not that I'm partial. You sisters are not as good as her. I only loved her once, but now I don't understand it." See, I don’t know if my Yuanchun is okay in the palace.” Jiamu burst into tears as she spoke, Yuanchun was raised by her herself since she was a child, and was born in a good life, so she placed many expectations in the mansion, although she knew that she was a female history Entering the palace must suffer hardships, but Jia Mu has nothing to do for the sake of the family.

When they saw it, everyone came up to persuade them.

Shi Xiangyun rolled his eyes around, and suddenly asked: "Why is Brother Ai missing? He was still there just now."

When Jia Mu heard the words, she also hurriedly asked, "Where is Baoyu? It's dark and cold outside. Be careful not to fall and freeze. Send someone to look for it."

Yuanyang hurriedly laughed and said: "Don't worry, old lady, Second Master Bao said he was a bit bored, he will come back after going for a walk outside, and Xiren will follow with lanterns."

But he said that Baoyu had returned to the house at this moment, lying on the bed depressed all over, not in the mood to do anything, which was incompatible with the festive atmosphere in the mansion.The reason why Baoyu is like this is to mention Shuiyue Temple.Previously, Jia Lian took care of Qin Keqing's funeral because of Jia's mother's words to investigate Shuiyue nunnery. Not only did he find out about Jingxu's "matchmaking" incident, but also some dirty things. Jingxu abolished the degree and expelled from the capital, and drove away a few restless aunts in the nunnery, including Zhizhi.This wise boy was infatuated, and slipped back disguised as a beggar to find Qin Zhong.When the two met, Qin Bangye bumped into him, chased Zhizhier away, beat Qin Zhong, and became ill with anger.Qin Zhong was already weak and was beaten again. Seeing his father was mad at him, he became more and more sick and couldn't get up.

"Why is Second Master so unhappy? But did you offend Ms. Lin today? Ms. Lin has always been petty and annoying. You two grew up together. You should be more considerate than others." Xiren nudged him Just ask.

Baoyu rolled his eyes to look at her, puzzled and said: "Sister Lin and I are on good terms, why should we offend? I'm doing something else."

Qingwen sneered at the side, looked at Xiren sarcastically, and said with a smile: "Sister Xiren has always been a virtuous person, why did you arrange Miss Lin at this moment? Who said Miss Lin is petty and annoying? I think Sister Lin is very willful, which is better than some people who are two-faced and three-faced. Besides, how about Miss Lin and the second master, that is the master's business, how will we be the girls to talk too much. "

Xiren never expected that Qingwen's sharp mouth would suddenly meet her. She couldn't refute for a while, and blushed angrily: "Are you arguing with me on purpose? How did I offend the girl? The girl said it, If I apologize to the girl, I don't want to deliberately pick on me in front of the second master."

Xiren is very good at avoiding the important and taking the light of the trivial, and never mentions the fault of the master.

After all, Qingwen is not scheming enough, and she has a hot temper, so she was immediately taken off topic: "Oh, how dare I provoke my sister, and my sister didn't offend me, it's just that I'm lazy, and I don't even have the second master's things I am lazy to do it, but I want my elder sister to work for Miss Shi."

Speaking of which, Qingwen flung herself out, holding back her anger, just happened to bump into a reckless little girl, and immediately vented all her anger on the little girl.At the beginning, the old lady gave it to Baoyu just because she liked her needlework. Although there was another meaning, she was a needlework girl on the bright side, but Xiren actually guarded her like a thief. She seldom touches things, she would rather ask girls from relatives to do them.Thanks to her face as big as a girl!

Xiren's face was red and white at the moment, and he was always respected by others, but he was choked suddenly, and he was very angry.But she is not usually a sharp person, and she can't chase her out to get it back, so she can only endure it.

At this moment, Baoyu suddenly asked: "Are Qingwen telling the truth? Did your sister Laoyun make things for me?" Baoyu remembered that he had indeed several things with exquisite needlework. Xiren only said that they hired outsiders to make them. No theory either.Thinking about it carefully, it was indeed a bit like Sister Yun's craftsmanship, and she couldn't help but sullen for a while.

Seeing this, Xiren's heart tightened, and he hurriedly said, "Second Lord..."

Without waiting for her to explain, Baoyu interrupted her: "Just say yes."

The attacker couldn't avoid it, so I had to admit it, but my face was full of grievances: "It's not that I'm pushing you, it's just that the second master is always fine, and ordinary needles and threads are so unattractive. That girl Qingwen has a temper, and occasionally I can't help it. I can do it slowly by myself, but when Miss Huiyun saw it, she knew the reason and asked for help. I didn't dare, but Miss Yun said that I was idle every day, and the second master was a cousin, and occasionally I would be a It doesn't matter two."

As soon as he heard this, it was not true. Baoyu was bored for a while, so he got up and went out.

"Second Master!" Xiren hurriedly chased him out, holding a red cloak in his hand: "It's cold at night, where is Second Master going? At least put on the cloak."

"I'm going to the old lady's place." Baoyu grabbed the cloak and put it on herself, then walked away.

When Xiren was put down like this, I just felt that all the maids and women in the yard were watching her jokes, and immediately blushed, and the eyes of grievances were red, just thinking about the great joy in the house today, it would be unlucky to cry I don't like my superiors, so I have to hold back.
