[Red Mansion] Married by decree

Since Lin Ruhai became seriously ill, he has been recuperating at home.Daiyu herself served at the head of the bed.Over the past few days, Lin Ruhai has been serving bowl after bowl of medicine to drink, but there is no effect.

Daiyu was very anxious, but there was nothing she could do.The butler invited all the doctors in Yangzhou city, but all he got was shaking his head frequently.In the end, all he got was a prescription for hanging his life.

But said that the Zhao family got the news and came to visit Lin Ruhai.The ancients said: a teacher for a day, a father for life.As the teacher's wife, between Mrs. Zhao and Lin Ruhai, there is no need to avoid the conflict between men and women.

"It's really not right for Ru Hai to make Master's Wife sad in the end."

"It's already at this time, and there are so many courtesy. You have been studying with your teacher at the age of 14, and you can be regarded as your teacher's wife watching you grow up. I don't want to be today, but I want a white-haired person to send a black-haired person." The old lady Zhao He is also a strong person. Although he was extremely sad, he insisted on not shedding tears.

"Ruhai still remembers being punished by the teacher at that time, and every time the teacher secretly gave Ruhai food."

"You do remember. At that time, Ye'er was still a child, and he was very greedy, but he was similar to Yue'er. Once when I saw me delivering food to you, she even clamored for it." Mrs. Zhao also thought Thinking about what happened at that time, I actually laughed a bit. "Some time ago, when Yu'er came back, she mentioned it to Ruhai. She said that she had promised Yue'er that she would definitely bring him food from the capital."

"The relationship between these two children is good. During the few days when Yu'er was here, Yue'er liked to follow behind Yu'er. If he refused to follow, he was not happy. At that time, Ye'er always liked to follow behind you. Then I looked at them for a few days, and it seemed like I saw you two. In a flash, so many years have passed."

"That's good, that's good. Even if Ru Hai is gone, I can feel at ease."

"Take good care of your illness. It's unlucky if you say you can't go."

"I know Ruhai's body best, and my wife should not comfort Ruhai. Now, Yu'er also has a good home, and Ruhai is content."

"You, knowing that my wife doesn't like to cry, you still made her cry." Mrs. Zhao couldn't help it anymore, and finally her eyes were flushed: "Yu'er, just relax, what is Ye'er like?" people, you know it."

These days, Daiyu had to take care of Lin Ruhai and the inner courtyard, so she was so busy that she didn't even have much time to rest.Nanny Lin and others tried to persuade her, but it was useless.After Mrs. Zhao came, she didn't persuade her anything, she just took over the affairs of the inner court and let Daiyu take care of Lin Ruhai with peace of mind.

Even so, Daiyu's old illness broke out.Daiyu was afraid that Lin Ruhai would be troubled again, so she told others to take the medicine secretly.It's just that this cough can't be concealed. When Lin Ruhai asked, Daiyu only said that she had a cold and had taken medicine.After that, Lin Ruhai didn't ask any more questions.

That night, Mrs. Zhao went back to the Zhao residence, but Zhao Ye and his wife stayed behind.Although someone had come to visit Lin Ruhai before, Lin Ruhai was seriously ill and was bedridden. Apart from Lin Ruhai, Daiyu was the only master in the entire Lin Mansion.

Daiyu is a girl who has not left the court, even if her marriage has been settled, she is not suitable for receiving male guests.No matter how much Lin Ruhai trusted Lin Butler, he was still a slave, and naturally he was not qualified to receive guests.Therefore, those people left Li and left.

When Zhao Ye and his wife arrived, they seemed to have given a signal to those people. Since then, more people came to visit Lin Ruhai.These people were all received by Zhao Ye.In this regard, those people have no complaints.

At first, everyone knew about the situation of the Lin family.Secondly, when everyone came to visit Lin Ruhai, they were more interested in the face of Daiyu, the future prince and concubine.Zhao Ye's family was originally a famous family, and Zhao Ye was Daiyu's good-hearted father.With his reception, this face is naturally sold.

Besides, since Mrs. Zhao took over the inner courtyard, she discovered that the housekeeper of the Lin family was actually selling off the properties of the Lin family.Zhao Shi also knew how Lin Ruhai trusted Steward Lin.But the stakes are high, and at such a sensitive time.Zhao Shi still mentioned it to Daiyu.

Daiyu also didn't know about this matter.Although she had doubts in her heart, she didn't ask anything in the end.In the end, she chose to trust Butler Lin.It wasn't until a few days later that Housekeeper Lin gave her a silver note of 40 taels that Daiyu guessed the reason.

"Father asked Uncle Lin to sell his property, so he wanted to leave the money to Daiyu?"

"I didn't expect the girl to know already."

"Daiyu didn't know. She just noticed that Uncle Lin was selling off some properties. Daiyu thought that her father must have made some arrangements, so she didn't ask."

"The master said that although the girl has good parents to take care of her, the marriage has been settled. But after all, I have to leave some money with me." Then he took out a stack of gift lists: "The girl's husband's family is not an ordinary family. The dowry master ordered It should be thicker. The master also ordered that all the dowry should be kept by Master Zhao’s family. This is the list, please have a look at it.”

After Jia Lian set off, he hurried to Yangzhou City.Along the way, I was afraid that I would not be able to complete Jiamu's task in time.In order to save time, he took only one servant and set out on the road.I didn't rest much along the way, and I arrived in Yangzhou in less than half a month.

Before Jia Lian arrived in Yangzhou, the head of the Lin family was sent by the housekeeper to the mansion.Since the patriarch personally came forward, Zhao Ye naturally returned to his home, leaving only the Zhao family to help Daiyu in the inner courtyard.

Since Zhao Ye had already left when Jia Lian came, Jia Lian hadn't seen Zhao Ye's face, not even Daiyu and Zhao Shi who had been in the inner courtyard.Naturally, they didn't know that the two of them were Daiyu's loving parents.

As soon as Jia Lian came, he went to see Lin Ruhai, and greeted Lin Ruhai with greetings, showing no intention of coming.It's just that only Jia Lian knows how much truth and falsehood there are.Afterwards, Jia Lian opened his mouth to see Daiyu, but was pushed back by Patriarch Lin who said: "Women to be married cannot see foreign men."

In fact, Jia Lian didn't really want to see Daiyu, what he wanted to see was Zijuan who was waiting by Daiyu's side.Jia Lian just arrived in Lin's mansion, so he doesn't know the situation yet.He was going to ask about the situation through Zicuckoo, and then make plans.But I don't want to, the rules of this Lin family are very strict.I mentioned it to the housekeeper of the Lin family again behind the patriarch's back, but was blocked by the same reason.

Seeing this, Jia Lian stopped thinking about going to see Daiyu.On second thought, if Zicuckoo knew that she was coming, she would definitely find a way to see her.While inquiring about the situation through other servants, he waited for Zicuckoo to arrive.

It's a pity that Zijuan was dismissed by Daiyu not long after her arrival.People from the Lin Mansion saw that Zijuan was an outsider, so they avoided her.She probably knows no more than Jia Lian.It can be seen from this that Jia Lian's plan to inquire about the situation through Zijuan will eventually come to nothing.
