The Son-in-law of the Red Chamber
Chapter 25
Jia Lian came to the door, so it was clear that Lin Daiyu and his wife were not given a chance to refuse. After all, they were juniors, so they should have come to the uncle's house to greet the grandmother, the two uncles, and the aunts.
But now it's a good thing, instead, the heir of the Jia family came to the door first. It seems that Daiyu and his wife are arrogant and impolite, and don't pay attention to their relatives and elders. .
But who is not well informed about the people in Beijing?
Thinking about the scene that happened in Daming Palace yesterday, everyone's eyes on Jia's mansion changed.
Many people even showed an expression of disbelief, and many people were genuinely shocked by the brazenness of the people in Jia's mansion.
So when everyone heard that Jingxiao and his wife had boarded the carriage and returned to Jia's mansion with the young master of Jia's mansion, they were even more astonished.
The Empress is also discussing the young couple she saw yesterday,
"Zi Tong, you also met the Lin daughter yesterday, what do you think?"
"Hui quality orchid heart, Zhong Ling Yuxiu."
She is graceful, dexterous and intelligent, and she is at an age where she can be her own granddaughter. The queen also tells the truth without hiding anything, and is highly praised.
"Well, indeed, Lin Ruhai has a good daughter."
The emperor thought about Daiyu's appropriate response in Daming Palace yesterday, and nodded in agreement.
"Your Majesty, don't you just watch such a good boy being bullied?"
The empress didn't like the Zhen family or the Jia family. The imperial concubine was so old that she didn't know how to take good care of her body. From time to time, she reached out to the elders, trying to get involved.The Jia family in the palace is more dignified and virtuous than her, the queen of the palace.
It should be said that the Jia family is too old to be favored by the emperor, but what about her, the main palace queen who is almost forty?
The young husband and wife between her and the emperor have been supported all the way. Now that they are old, they have both grandchildren and grandchildren, and the empress no longer competes for those favors, but when it comes to power, even the power of the harem, the empress thinks very Heavy, no one can intervene.
But one or two are restless, Jia's family is already a noble concubine, and she is dignified, does she want to take this palace and replace her?With Chi Guoguo's ambition, is it dead to be a queen?
So it's strange that the queen has a good impression of Jia's mansion.
Naturally, she had a good impression of Daiyu, the little girl bullied by the Jia family. After seeing Lin's daughter with her own eyes yesterday, the queen really liked it very much.Listening to the emperor's question now, it is natural that he is full of praise, and he also gave Zhen and Jia some eye drops.
"Although I am the emperor, you also know that the Zhen family has my difficulties!"
The emperor was afraid that he hated the Zhen family more than anyone else, and wished he could slap them to death. Unfortunately, the emperor was still there, and many things could not be left to the emperor to be the master of the family.
"Your Majesty, what about the son-in-law of the Lin family?"
After all, it was related to the previous dynasty, the queen didn't want to ask too many questions, as long as she expressed her attitude clearly, she asked about Luo Chenyi again. After all, he was Lao Ge's nephew, and it was a strange thing that he became the son-in-law.
"Well, I'm a little clever, but after all, I'm young and vigorous, and I'm a little impulsive, impulsive, right!...Queen, I have something else to do, so I'll go back to Daming Palace first!"
The emperor thought about Luo Chenyi, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and he left in a hurry.
Seeing the emperor who was like a whirlwind, the queen chuckled, and said that he was an impulsive boy, look at your majesty, it seems that he is not giving up too much.
"Dai Quan, go find me all Luo Chenyi's information, everything."
After the emperor returned to Daming Palace, he gave orders immediately.
On the other hand, Daiyu and his wife were very calm towards Jia Lian who came out early in the morning. On the contrary, Jia Lian was a little guilty because of the Jiangnan incident, so his face was extremely enthusiastic.
"Sister Lin, brother-in-law Lin, I'm really bothering you. If the old lady didn't push me so hard, how could I be so rude?"
"Second brother Lian has worked hard, come to have a cup of hot tea, which was fried by the county magistrate and I, and it tastes pretty good."
This is winter tea from Shandong, which is very rare and novel, so the couple tried to make tea by themselves. Because they are not familiar with the business, they spoiled a lot. In the end, they only got half a catty, which is easy to use. But today he took it out to entertain Jia Lian.
Jia Lian picked up the teacup and took a sip, but he didn't think it was rare, the mellowness was not as good as the Biluochun tea he used to drink, which was only for the old sage's tribute tea.
I can see his disapproval, but Luo Chenyi has no intention of exposing it.Chatting with Jia Lian about the customs in Beijing, he grew up in the south of the Yangtze River and came to Beijing for the first time, so seeing everything in Beijing is strange.
"Brother-in-law Lin, I'm free some other day. The second elder brother will take you shopping. There are indeed several good places."
For the last sentence, Jia Lian lowered his voice, revealing the ambiguous expression of a man who understands each other.
At first, he didn't think of this incident, but compared with Xue Pan, who was a bumpkin before, he felt that maybe this high-sounding and serious brother-in-law Lin could be the second cousin Xue?
After all, they are relatives, and they are all young people. It seems that it doesn't matter if they are more intimate with each other before.
After all, they are all young people. Once they have that kind of friendship, they will get along more harmoniously with each other. It seems that they can reduce the guilt in their hearts and make themselves open-minded, so Jia Lian is full of enthusiasm.
"Then please trouble the second cousin."
After Luo Chenyi thanked Jia Lian indifferently, he closed his mouth and picked up his teacup.
"County horse, Master Jia, the county lord just sent word that we can go."
Just when the atmosphere between the two was a bit delicate, a white and beardless man came in with a slightly shrill voice, and said to Jia Lian and the two of them.
Listening to his pure official speech, Jia Lian guessed the identity of this man after thinking that this house was bestowed by the official family.
A servant from the House of Internal Affairs.
"Please!"
Jia Lian got up and said with a smile.
Luo Chenyi and Jia Lian left the flower hall one after another, Daiyu had already got on the carriage, Luo Chenyi and Jia Lian also got on the carriage respectively, and went to Rongguo Mansion.
After all, this is the inner city, and horse racing is not allowed. It is more convenient and more comfortable to use a horse-drawn carriage in the inner city.
"Your residence is indeed magnificent!"
Hearing Luo Chenyi's sincere praise, Jia Lian, who was a little guilty in his heart, always felt that his words were full of sarcasm.
But looking at the sincerity on his face, Jia Lianfu felt that he was thinking too much.
Daiyu was welcomed to the inner house by the two young grandmothers Li Wan and Wang Xifeng through the side door, and Luo Chenyi followed Jia Lian's footsteps to the Rongguo Mansion's study.
Although Luo Chenyi is a son-in-law and a junior, but now he has the status of a county magistrate and is the nephew of old Luo Ge, so Jia's family can't be too negligent, discuss with each other, Jia She and the two brothers It is not rude to receive him in the study in the front yard, accompanied by Jia Lian.
Luo Chenyi looked at Jia Amnesty, who had a drunken look on his face, and Jia She, who was full of energy and spirit, and Jia Zheng, who was always a gentleman, and he understood why Jia Zheng was the head of the family.After all, people in this world value appearance, if appearance is not enough, then even if you are talented, it will be difficult to find a job to support your family, and those who lose their appearance will have no chance of becoming an official.
Jia Amnesty was not interested in the Four Books and Five Classics, and it was annoying to listen to the literary stuff.However, in the conversation between Luo Chenyi and Jia Zheng, he also knew that this person might not be an idiot.
However, Jia Amnesty was unwilling to let his younger brother stand out alone, so he interjected and chatted about gold and stone. As for antiques, Luo Chenyi was young and inexperienced, and he didn't like these old things. They were either funeral objects or funeral objects. It's not like one, two, three, it's not as good as Daiyu.
However, he has a lot of fans in his collection, but Jia She is just like this, and the two chatted very speculatively.
When I heard that Luo Chenyi had collected two large boxes of ancient fans and invited him to enjoy them together at leisure, Jia Amnesty couldn't help but patted him on the shoulder, almost calling him a brother.
After all, this old man can be regarded as a man of temperament.
Luo Chenyi not only smiled, such an old man is much cuter than some honest and hypocritical people, so the two of them became more and more "speculative".
In the inner house, Daiyu came to the Rongqing hall with the support of the two sister-in-laws, and paid a solemn visit to the old lady.
Jia's mother looked at the more elegant and slim granddaughter, thinking of her dead daughter, she couldn't help feeling sad, and couldn't help crying.
"My Yu'er, Yu'er! You are going to hurt me to death!"
"Old ancestor, since my niece is here, we will be able to get along with each other for a long time in the future. Don't be too sad, it will make my niece uneasy."
Today's Jia She and his wife don't know what's wrong, their social skills are all full.Madam Xing's words provoked everyone to look over, and she became more and more proud.
Today's Mrs. Xing, it is not an exaggeration to say "witty words".
"Isn't that exactly what the wife said? With me, the county owner's sister, the ancestors would probably throw our burnt papers behind the wall! But I don't accept it, sister Lin, you Tell me, in terms of ability and filial piety, I am not as good as you, why does the old lady only love you and only love you?"
Wang Xifeng was never willing to be inferior in front of others, and immediately took over the boss of her mother-in-law, and said angrily.
"Because I'm thin-skinned. I'm not like Lian's second sister-in-law, but like Qiao's sister. I'm brazen enough to compete for favor! That's why my grandmother loves me, not you, a shabby hut!"
Daiyu's mouth was naturally unforgiving, and she laughed and teased her.
With all these interruptions, Mother Jia finally let go of her sorrows, and all her joys were left.As for Baoyu, after seeing Sister Lin who had already disguised herself as a woman, she felt cold all over her body and felt a dull pain in her heart.
As for Daiyu, she frowned slightly and tried her best to ignore Baoyu completely.
In such a situation, Mother Jia couldn't help sighing, but Mrs. Wang was overjoyed, fortunately, the daughter of the Lin family was married, otherwise, would she have to let her live in the face of her daughter-in-law?
"Come, come, come, my Yu'er, come and sit next to my grandmother, Yuanyang, I got the crispy cheese and pastries from the palace yesterday and haven't brought them yet? Let Miss Lin try it, it's different from ours, try it fresh."
Yuanyang naturally prepared these according to the old lady's instructions. Now that he heard this, he hastily ordered someone to bring up the dim sum and steamed cheese from the palace. Naturally, it was not only these three or four items, but also Fresh fruits of various colors, because Miss Lin is weak, so even if it is July weather, she does not dare to serve iced tea fruits on the table, but she just splashes them with cold water to remove the coolness.
Daiyu was also grateful for the kindness of the old lady, took the bowl of crispy cheese with a smile and ate a few mouthfuls. She has always had a weak spleen and stomach, so she didn't dare to eat more, for fear that she would not be able to bear it anymore.
Everyone was accustomed to Daiyu's appearance, so they were not surprised.
Only Aunt Xue and Baochai met for the first time. Seeing her acting, I was very surprised. Miss Lin's appetite is not as good as that of the little sparrow.It's better to be my own Baochai, who is plump and lovable, and will be easy to bear in the future. This Jingxiao county lord has a thin body. I'm afraid it will not be good for the heirs, and I will be annoyed that my sister will not agree to have such a son. daughter in law.
Baochai was also amazed by Daiyu's demeanor. Fortunately, such a person is married and has a family. Otherwise, according to the old lady's preference, Rao has confidence in herself and feels that she is not inferior to the prince. However, when facing Miss Lin, she still couldn't help being a little frustrated. Fortunately, her mother and aunt have already made an appointment. In the future, when she marries into the Duke's Mansion...
The Xue family's 30 taels of silver is really not so easy to borrow!
"Ah? This is an inner house after all. He is a man, but he is not good..."
"What are you afraid of? We are all close relatives of the whole family, what's the matter?"
Mother Jia wanted to see her son-in-law, but she didn't take Daiyu's concerns seriously.The avoidance that should be avoided is enough.Today's mother Jia is at the top of the pinnacle tower, and she no longer has to consider other people's feelings.
"This……"
Daiyu hesitated slightly.
"Yuanyang, send someone to the front and tell Lian'er to come in with Yu'er's son-in-law, saying that I want to see that child."
Yuanyang pursed her lips, smiled at Daiyu, then followed the old lady's wishes, turned and left.
Li Wan, Wang Xifeng and others hurriedly took a few boudoir daughters to escape. Jiamu took Daiyu's hand and asked her carefully about Yangzhou and Gusu's life.But are there relatives and relatives of the clan who are open-eyed and scheming?
Although her words were cryptic, Daiyu had a dexterous mind, and she didn't hide her grandmother's questions. She chose to tell a few things openly, and then asked her about how to transfer, teach servants, and manage slaves. Jia Mu immediately eloquent.
She has grown from a great-grandson's daughter-in-law to the old lord of the Jia family. Naturally, she has her own experience in taking care of the servants. Because Yu'er was young, she didn't want her to be contaminated by these things, and she is getting older. , There is also a lack of energy.
She originally planned to wait for Yu'er for a few more years, and then go to study with Feng girl after she understands the matter, but who knows, Mrs. Lin was so impatient that she took Yu'er home, and even married her as a relative, so that she could Some painstaking efforts have become eastward flowing water.
At this moment, Daiyu listened quietly to Jia Mu's instructions, and she was more considerate than her own handling.
The grandparents and grandson talked to their heart's content, completely ignoring Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang and the aunt of Xue's family.As for Baoyu who has entered a state of ignorance, no one takes him seriously.Mrs. Wang, seeing her son like this, was very displeased.
After a while, a little girl suddenly sent a message,
"Second Master Lian and Uncle Lin are here—"
Everyone immediately came back to their senses and stared at the door. Daiyu and Baoyu immediately stood up.
Luo Chenyi entered the Rongqing hall, and when he looked up, he saw the delicate and pretty Daiyu, standing on the left of Jiamu, and the young man in red robe standing on the right was probably Baoyu.
"Meet the old lady!"
After all, it was the first time they met, so the young couple toasted tea to Mother Jia and made a big gift. Mother Jia was naturally overjoyed, and hurriedly asked to help the two of them up, and put the tea that they had prepared a long time ago. The meeting ceremony came up.
Things are all good things, Lao Yu's dragon and phoenix jade pendants, etc., are all in pairs of three or four.
Of course, there are also Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang who are presenting Mrs. Xue's meeting ceremony.
However, if Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang can reluctantly accept their half-respect, then Mrs. Xue, a business woman, needs to salute Daiyu and his wife, because she is the second aunt's biological sister, who is old and They were related by relatives, so both of them avoided her and accepted her gift indifferently.
But if that's the case, Madam Wang and Madam Xue both smiled with a forced face. If they had known this, she should have avoided it with Feng girl just now, and saved herself such a humiliation.
It's a pity that there is no medicine for regret in the world, no matter how regretful Aunt Xue is now, it is already too late.
"This is Baoyu, Bao's second cousin!"
"Oh? How come there are two second cousins in the house, Lian's second brother is also a second cousin, and this Bao's second brother is also a second cousin."
Listening to his wife's introduction, Luo Chenyi asked in a little surprise.
Daiyu has never thought about this matter deeply, since she entered Jia's house as a child, it has been such a rule, who knows?
But at the moment when Luo Chenyi brought it up, she immediately felt that it was weird. Jia Lian was the one who felt more deeply than her. He didn't have an elder brother above him. Although he was not the only son of the master, but because of Big Brother Zhu, he was ranked second. But after Baoyu was born, the old lady said that each room was arranged according to herself, but she, Lian's second master, did not become Lian's uncle, but Baoyu became Bao's second master.
At this moment, Jia Lian can only hehe.
As for the others, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. It has always been such a rule, but asking such a question suddenly really caught people off guard.
"Ah, it's just a small family, just yelling indiscriminately!"
In the end, it was Mrs. Wang who spoke up, and it seemed that she had fooled this section.
"Oh."
Luo Chenyi didn't seem to realize that he was embarrassing his master, so he replied softly, with a look of indifference, which made Mrs. Wang a little annoyed.
Mrs. Wang's complexion is not good, and Jia Lian's complexion is not good. As for Jia's mother, her complexion is not much better.Sure enough, he is not honest, but has 1 minds. Uncle Lin has chosen such a son-in-law, how can he compare with his own Baoyu, who is pure and motivated, and makes people hurt?
Jia's mother complained and complained about the dead Lin Ruhai in her heart, but unfortunately, the matter was a foregone conclusion, and there was no possibility of changing it.Moreover, although Mother Jia despised this son-in-law on the surface, she was more vigilant towards him in her heart. After all, he was Lao Ge's nephew.
Thinking about the imperial concubine in the palace and his own precious jade, if there is really the support of the Luo family, Yuanchun will win the prince again in the future.Then the Jia Mansion will definitely be able to take it to the next level...
It's not that she hasn't thought about this idea before, but it's a pity that the Luo family didn't pay any attention to Jia's disloyalty. Jia's mother had experienced prosperity, so naturally she didn't want to show her face to other people's cold ass. There are not many exchanges between the government, and it has always been neither salty nor light.
Fortunately, now that Yu'er has returned to Beijing, and his own Yu'er is the honor of the county lord, can the Luo family not give face?
Even Luo Chenyi didn't expect that this old lady, who was old and strong, was already plotting against him when they met for the first time.
Fortunately, he did not know.
After a long time, Mother Jia said to the two young children with a serious face,
"Since we are already husband and wife, let's live happily together. Don't be naughty and idle, and let my Yu'er be wronged. The old woman will not obey."
Although these words were addressed to Daiyu and his wife, the meaning of beating was aimed at Luo Chenyi.
"That's right, just such a niece is naturally backed by my Jia family, but I can't tolerate being bullied by outsiders!"
If Jia Mu's words were still a little reserved, Mrs. Wang who interrupted at this moment was talking about Chi Guoguo's beating.
"The calculations from relatives are chilling, don't you think? Grandma."
Luo Chenyi didn't seem to understand Mrs. Wang's words, so he answered such a sentence lightly and cleverly, and successfully changed the faces of everyone in Jia's mansion. Jia's mother's face trembled angrily. The rosary in Mrs. Wang's hand was actually broken. Tick tock drops all over the floor.
Falling into Luo Chenyi's ears, "Ding Ding Dang Dang" seemed to be the sound of a pipa, it's really nice!
As for Jia Lian, after all, he was young and lacked experience, so he was blushing at the moment, which was just a shame.
The huge Rongqing Hall seemed as silent as a cemetery!
Tears flashed faintly in Daiyu's eyes, thinking about the difficult years of her husband and wife in the south of the Yangtze River, thinking about the aggressiveness of the Zhen family, and thinking about the arrogance and rudeness of the Zhen family's children when her father was buried, Daiyu felt more and more sour. Standing there in a daze, without making a sound to save the siege, he turned his head, turning a blind eye to the plea in Jia Mu's eyes.
At this moment, Jia's mother was lamenting in her heart, Yu'er really knew, Yu'er really had resentment in her heart, and Yu'er was going to have a rift with the family!
But she doesn't blame Daiyu, she only hates her son-in-law!
The boy of the Luo family, I really underestimated him.
"What do you mean by brother-in-law Lin? Could it be that sister Lin was embarrassed by members of the Lin clan? The world is really hateful, how dare they do this? Are they all wolf-hearted?"
Baoyu, who was not in the mood at all today, asked nervously.
Looking at Baoyu's innocent face, Luo Chenyi twitched the corners of his mouth twice, seeing that the people in Jia's mansion were really good-looking, and said to Baoyu, "It's not because of the people of the clan, but it's the Zhen family in the south of the Yangtze River. The fellowship with the master actually took away a lot of the property of the ancestors in the family, but it was my incompetence that failed to live up to our master's expectations and could not protect Lin's family property, so I have such a little emotion That's all."
These words are straightforward, what good is your Jia Mansion?The collusion with the Zhen family, coupled with the visit of Mrs. Zhen's family yesterday, isn't this a clear thing?
"Min'er, my Min'er, if you are still alive, you will definitely not let me... It's a pity that my Min'er, with such a bad fate, let me be a white-haired man to a black-haired man!"
In the past, when Mother Jia cried and complained to Jia Min, it would make Madam Wang vomit for a few days, but today, for the first time, she felt that it was good for her aunt to die!
At this moment, Daiyu's reluctant smile was completely restrained.
"Grandmother, we have filial piety after all, but we can't stay here for long. We will come to you later when it's convenient! Two aunts, Mrs. Xue, second cousin Lian, second cousin Bao, and Daiyu will take their leave first!"
She turned around and left, but Luo Chenyi had no intention of staying, and followed Daiyu's footsteps, and stepped out of Rongqing Hall.
Baoyu was at a loss, what happened?Why did sister Lin have such a thunderous rage?
As for Jia Lian, with embarrassment on his face, he hurried out and called out,
"Sister Lin, brother-in-law Lin, please stop, you must not!"
"Second cousin Lian, why don't you do it? Was it when you kissed the Zhen family or when Wang'er met the steward of the Zhen family? Our husband and wife are young and stupid, but we have never had any problems with the second elder brother. The slightest negligence, but today I have to ask why?"
Luo Chenyi asked bluntly.
"Brother-in-law Lin, sister Lin, how can I have such thoughts, it's just involuntary!"
Now that it has been punctured, Jia Lian has nothing to hide, and said with a wry smile.
"It's good to say 'I can't help myself'. I am considerate of my second cousin, and my second cousin is also considerate of my husband and wife. Let's say goodbye today. Let's let it go longer in the future."
Daiyu didn't say a word, but after hearing Jia Lian's explanation, she sneered.
"Second cousin stayed behind, and expressed his apology to the two uncles, and told the eldest uncle that in a few days, I will post a post to invite the old man to come to the house to have wine and enjoy fan noodles together!"
Jia Lian apologized and paid respects along the way, but unfortunately, the two failed to change their minds. After finally getting on the county lord's carriage, Luo Chenyi said to Jia Lian.
"Sister Lin, brother-in-law Lin, it's better to leave!"
I'm afraid that Jia's mansion is about to face a big storm, and he can't protect himself, so now Jia Lian wants to cry but has no tears!
Daiyu trembled with anger, got on the frame, and after the carriage slowly started moving forward, she couldn't hold it back any longer.
Luo Chenyi hugged her tightly, let her beat and struggle, let her tears soak his clothes.
Luo Chenyi's face was dark and gloomy, and his heart seemed to be soaked in these tears, aching and aching.
Jia's mansion, good job; old lady, good job!
After returning to the mansion, Luo Chenyi directly ordered the chariots and horses to be driven into the inner courtyard. Daiyu cried until she was in tears, and even faintly twitched because of her emotional excitement.
"Go, send someone, take the post and go to the imperial hospital to invite an imperial doctor!"
Luo Chenyi gave instructions to Lin Zhongan.
The lord humiliated his minister to death, although he didn't know what happened, but this time when he returned to the mansion, he invited the imperial physician. It can be seen that many things happened during this trip to Jia's mansion, so Lin Zhongan's complexion suddenly turned ugly.
"Grandpa, how is the girl?"
"Hurry up and call the imperial physician, the sooner the better!"
Luo Chenyi didn't have the heart to say anything else at the moment, so he directly instructed him.
Hearing the urgency in the uncle's words, Lin Zhongan didn't dare to delay any longer, and ran out quickly...
Luo Chenyi carried Daiyu halfway into the bedroom, and comforted him,
"Why are you bothering? Annoyed and vomited, you hit me twice to vent your anger, so why bother?"
"Grandmother, grandma... oh... mother..."
Daiyu was sobbing so hard that she couldn't utter a complete sentence.
Seeing her like this, Luo Chenyi stopped comforting her, and slowly rubbed her back to calm her down.
The imperial doctor's footsteps were not slow, and he left after prescribing tranquilizing medicine.
The gossip in Beijing spread the fastest, so early the next morning, the news that Daiyu had fallen ill had already spread throughout the capital, even in the inner garden of the deep palace.
So during the routine greetings, the Empress Dowager even asked about Yuan Chun,
"Mr. Jia, I heard people say that the girl Jingxiao fell ill after visiting Jia Taijun yesterday. Could it be that your natal family took advantage of your power to bully Jingxiao and his wife? Although that girl is the first It’s the first time I’ve seen you, but I really like it.”
Yuan Chun naturally knew this kind of palace news, but she just pretended not to know, and said with a little embarrassment, "The concubine doesn't know, my grandmother loves the Jingxiao County Lord left by her deceased aunt the most, it is absolutely impossible Let her be wronged."
Yuan Chun can only say so.
The empress relies on her status, and has always been too lazy to pay attention to these competitions, but other people are not as magnanimous as the empress. Concubine Wu is also a concubine, and she was crushed by a daughter of the palace. She can swallow this It's strange to have a bad breath!
After all, this Xiande concubine is just the daughter of a fifth-rank official, and she has been aging in the palace. She flew up to the branch and became a noble concubine. No.1 under the Queen.
Concubine Wu Gui Su was not a magnanimous concubine in the past, she was jealous, whipped the palace servants, she was always domineering, now she has the handle of a virtuous concubine, how can she bear it?
"Really? Concubine Xiande doesn't care much about her natal family. As far as I, an outsider, know, Concubine Xiande's family is not very kind to County Lord Jingxiao. It is said that County Lord Jingxiao has lived in Jia's house for five or six years. But all the time they lived in the Bisha cabinet, without even a decent yard, this doesn't seem to be the emphasis that Concubine Xiande said!"
"No, I heard that County Lord Jingxiao was raised together with the concubines in the mansion!"
Zhou Meiren also immediately stood up to show off her well-informed.
"Yes, yes!"
Countless people stood up to testify for Wu Guifei and Zhou Meiren, and everyone spoke righteously.
The empress dowager's complexion suddenly turned ugly, and so did the empress, but she felt refreshed in her heart, watching the play in a serious manner, this beauty's face was stiff and embarrassed, which was also pleasing to the eye.
Greetings today, Concubine Xiande's face was stripped and trampled on the ground.
After being silent for a while, the Queen Mother said,
"After all, he is the county magistrate appointed by the emperor, and he can be regarded as a member of my royal family, so he shouldn't be too negligent!"
Although the old queen's words were light and light, they fell heavily on Yuan Chun's ears.
Yuan Chun, who had returned to Fengzao Palace, couldn't help but drink several large cups of herbal tea, only then did he feel that his heart was much smoother.
After all, she has been in the palace for many years, and the skill of nourishing her spirit is really good. Concubine Xiande directly told her servant girl, "Let Yiren enter the palace on the sixth day of next month."
"Okay, ma'am."
Baoqin is now 24 years old. In another year, when she reaches 25, she actually has a chance to go out of the palace, but she has no choice. She is No.1 next to the concubine Xiande. How about the empress? Are you "willing" to leave the palace by yourself?
Daiyu was indeed ill, so the next day the county lord's mansion sent people to the imperial hospital to invite an imperial physician. As a result of being angry, Daiyu was not seriously ill, she was always groggy, and had a low fever that did not go away.
Luo Chenyi blamed himself a little, he blamed himself for being too impulsive, he overestimated Daiyu's ability to bear, and underestimated the status of Jia's family in Daiyu's heart, so he made a wrong calculation, which led to such a bitter fruit!
It's a pity that no matter how much he blames himself now, it won't help, so he can only pray that Daiyu will get better soon.
As for the Jia family, when can it not be cleaned up?How could he be willing to take Daiyu with him in order to clean up the Jia family.
Daiyu's body has never been in good condition. I have been taking care of her carefully for more than a year, and finally put on some flesh, but in this one night, Daiyu seems to be thinner than before, and Luo Chenyi's heart aches for her haggard appearance. .
However, the imperial physician was not worried about her outbreak of the disease, instead she advised Luo Chenyi that it was a good thing, after all, it broke out for a while, and with careful treatment, the root cause of the disease would not be left in the future.
After hearing the white bearded doctor's words, Luo Chenyi finally felt less depressed in his heart.
There was no movement in Jia's house for two days, and on the third day, Jia Lian and his wife were sent to the door, but unfortunately, they did not see the real master, and even Luo Chenyi did not come out to meet the guests.
Lin Zhongan smiled wryly, and talked about his master's illness. It sounded very dangerous. The county horse hadn't closed his eyes for three days, and he was watching him with a good eye. It was really wrong to neglect relatives, but now the two The master is like this, so he can only help the second master and the second mistress to take care of him.
Ever since Luo Chenyi exposed this title the day before yesterday, Jia Lian always felt that when others called him Second Master, they were laughing at him, and felt uncomfortable all over his body.
Wang Xifeng was eloquent, and after carefully asking about Daiyu's illness, he put down a thick gift list, and the couple said goodbye and left.
It's a good thing I didn't bring the precious jade that looks like a concubine's funeral, otherwise...
Jia Lian and his wife probably didn't read the almanac when they went out, so the unlucky things happened one after another. Wang Xifeng, who had just arrived home, heard that the maid in the palace had sent out the servant, and was almost depressed to death.
Now that the house is in short supply of money, where can I find thousands of taels of silver to pay off this little eunuch?
Therefore, when Wang Xifeng, who had just removed the hairpin and jewelry, heard that his wife was invited, he gritted his teeth for a while, and then took Ping'er to Mrs. Wang's place like a gust of wind.
As for Jia Lian, he is answering in the old lady's room at the moment.
It's a pity that Jia's mother was very dissatisfied with the trip of Jia Lian and his wife, and she didn't know anything about it!
No, maybe I should go out of the house myself!
After hearing Yuan Chun's message, Jia's mother made up her mind to visit Daiyu in person.
After all, Yuan Chun is everything in the family's revival, and she must not make any mistakes.
In the middle of the night, Daiyu finally lost her fever. She opened her eyes and looked at her husband lying on the couch. A warm current flashed in her heart. She was no longer alone. When she opened her eyes, she could always see her in sight. He, this feeling is really good.
This may be the reason why she was able to turn around and leave after getting annoyed with the Jia family the day before yesterday.She has her own home, and she is the Princess Jingxiao who will always be protected.
"Hey, are you awake? Do you need to drink water? Or do you need to change clothes?"
Luo Chenyi woke up suddenly, opened his eyes and looked at the awakened Daiyu, and asked with joy.
"Help me up! I've been lying down for a long time, and I feel so tired!"
After drinking two sips of warm water with his hands, Daiyu said.
"Okay, how is it? Is there anything else that feels uncomfortable? Can I pinch it for you? How about we invite the doctor to come over and take a look?"
Luo Chenyi asked nervously.
"I'm fine, but don't worry about it. I feel bitter when I hear the doctor these two days."
Daiyu said to him, just these two days, how many bitter medicine soups have been poured down, even because the saint heard that she was ill, so he sent a highly respected old doctor to the county lord's mansion to show his respect meaning.
"Okay, do you feel uncomfortable? Do you want to take a bath and change clothes? Or you can wrap a warm handkerchief to wipe your body."
Although Daiyu was drowsy, she didn't completely lose her memory. Thinking of him taking care of herself without pretending to others, she couldn't help but her face became hot and her cheeks flushed.
Under the dim candlelight, such a Daiyu is astonishingly beautiful, a flash of amazement flashed in Luo Chenyi's eyes...
But now it's a good thing, instead, the heir of the Jia family came to the door first. It seems that Daiyu and his wife are arrogant and impolite, and don't pay attention to their relatives and elders. .
But who is not well informed about the people in Beijing?
Thinking about the scene that happened in Daming Palace yesterday, everyone's eyes on Jia's mansion changed.
Many people even showed an expression of disbelief, and many people were genuinely shocked by the brazenness of the people in Jia's mansion.
So when everyone heard that Jingxiao and his wife had boarded the carriage and returned to Jia's mansion with the young master of Jia's mansion, they were even more astonished.
The Empress is also discussing the young couple she saw yesterday,
"Zi Tong, you also met the Lin daughter yesterday, what do you think?"
"Hui quality orchid heart, Zhong Ling Yuxiu."
She is graceful, dexterous and intelligent, and she is at an age where she can be her own granddaughter. The queen also tells the truth without hiding anything, and is highly praised.
"Well, indeed, Lin Ruhai has a good daughter."
The emperor thought about Daiyu's appropriate response in Daming Palace yesterday, and nodded in agreement.
"Your Majesty, don't you just watch such a good boy being bullied?"
The empress didn't like the Zhen family or the Jia family. The imperial concubine was so old that she didn't know how to take good care of her body. From time to time, she reached out to the elders, trying to get involved.The Jia family in the palace is more dignified and virtuous than her, the queen of the palace.
It should be said that the Jia family is too old to be favored by the emperor, but what about her, the main palace queen who is almost forty?
The young husband and wife between her and the emperor have been supported all the way. Now that they are old, they have both grandchildren and grandchildren, and the empress no longer competes for those favors, but when it comes to power, even the power of the harem, the empress thinks very Heavy, no one can intervene.
But one or two are restless, Jia's family is already a noble concubine, and she is dignified, does she want to take this palace and replace her?With Chi Guoguo's ambition, is it dead to be a queen?
So it's strange that the queen has a good impression of Jia's mansion.
Naturally, she had a good impression of Daiyu, the little girl bullied by the Jia family. After seeing Lin's daughter with her own eyes yesterday, the queen really liked it very much.Listening to the emperor's question now, it is natural that he is full of praise, and he also gave Zhen and Jia some eye drops.
"Although I am the emperor, you also know that the Zhen family has my difficulties!"
The emperor was afraid that he hated the Zhen family more than anyone else, and wished he could slap them to death. Unfortunately, the emperor was still there, and many things could not be left to the emperor to be the master of the family.
"Your Majesty, what about the son-in-law of the Lin family?"
After all, it was related to the previous dynasty, the queen didn't want to ask too many questions, as long as she expressed her attitude clearly, she asked about Luo Chenyi again. After all, he was Lao Ge's nephew, and it was a strange thing that he became the son-in-law.
"Well, I'm a little clever, but after all, I'm young and vigorous, and I'm a little impulsive, impulsive, right!...Queen, I have something else to do, so I'll go back to Daming Palace first!"
The emperor thought about Luo Chenyi, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and he left in a hurry.
Seeing the emperor who was like a whirlwind, the queen chuckled, and said that he was an impulsive boy, look at your majesty, it seems that he is not giving up too much.
"Dai Quan, go find me all Luo Chenyi's information, everything."
After the emperor returned to Daming Palace, he gave orders immediately.
On the other hand, Daiyu and his wife were very calm towards Jia Lian who came out early in the morning. On the contrary, Jia Lian was a little guilty because of the Jiangnan incident, so his face was extremely enthusiastic.
"Sister Lin, brother-in-law Lin, I'm really bothering you. If the old lady didn't push me so hard, how could I be so rude?"
"Second brother Lian has worked hard, come to have a cup of hot tea, which was fried by the county magistrate and I, and it tastes pretty good."
This is winter tea from Shandong, which is very rare and novel, so the couple tried to make tea by themselves. Because they are not familiar with the business, they spoiled a lot. In the end, they only got half a catty, which is easy to use. But today he took it out to entertain Jia Lian.
Jia Lian picked up the teacup and took a sip, but he didn't think it was rare, the mellowness was not as good as the Biluochun tea he used to drink, which was only for the old sage's tribute tea.
I can see his disapproval, but Luo Chenyi has no intention of exposing it.Chatting with Jia Lian about the customs in Beijing, he grew up in the south of the Yangtze River and came to Beijing for the first time, so seeing everything in Beijing is strange.
"Brother-in-law Lin, I'm free some other day. The second elder brother will take you shopping. There are indeed several good places."
For the last sentence, Jia Lian lowered his voice, revealing the ambiguous expression of a man who understands each other.
At first, he didn't think of this incident, but compared with Xue Pan, who was a bumpkin before, he felt that maybe this high-sounding and serious brother-in-law Lin could be the second cousin Xue?
After all, they are relatives, and they are all young people. It seems that it doesn't matter if they are more intimate with each other before.
After all, they are all young people. Once they have that kind of friendship, they will get along more harmoniously with each other. It seems that they can reduce the guilt in their hearts and make themselves open-minded, so Jia Lian is full of enthusiasm.
"Then please trouble the second cousin."
After Luo Chenyi thanked Jia Lian indifferently, he closed his mouth and picked up his teacup.
"County horse, Master Jia, the county lord just sent word that we can go."
Just when the atmosphere between the two was a bit delicate, a white and beardless man came in with a slightly shrill voice, and said to Jia Lian and the two of them.
Listening to his pure official speech, Jia Lian guessed the identity of this man after thinking that this house was bestowed by the official family.
A servant from the House of Internal Affairs.
"Please!"
Jia Lian got up and said with a smile.
Luo Chenyi and Jia Lian left the flower hall one after another, Daiyu had already got on the carriage, Luo Chenyi and Jia Lian also got on the carriage respectively, and went to Rongguo Mansion.
After all, this is the inner city, and horse racing is not allowed. It is more convenient and more comfortable to use a horse-drawn carriage in the inner city.
"Your residence is indeed magnificent!"
Hearing Luo Chenyi's sincere praise, Jia Lian, who was a little guilty in his heart, always felt that his words were full of sarcasm.
But looking at the sincerity on his face, Jia Lianfu felt that he was thinking too much.
Daiyu was welcomed to the inner house by the two young grandmothers Li Wan and Wang Xifeng through the side door, and Luo Chenyi followed Jia Lian's footsteps to the Rongguo Mansion's study.
Although Luo Chenyi is a son-in-law and a junior, but now he has the status of a county magistrate and is the nephew of old Luo Ge, so Jia's family can't be too negligent, discuss with each other, Jia She and the two brothers It is not rude to receive him in the study in the front yard, accompanied by Jia Lian.
Luo Chenyi looked at Jia Amnesty, who had a drunken look on his face, and Jia She, who was full of energy and spirit, and Jia Zheng, who was always a gentleman, and he understood why Jia Zheng was the head of the family.After all, people in this world value appearance, if appearance is not enough, then even if you are talented, it will be difficult to find a job to support your family, and those who lose their appearance will have no chance of becoming an official.
Jia Amnesty was not interested in the Four Books and Five Classics, and it was annoying to listen to the literary stuff.However, in the conversation between Luo Chenyi and Jia Zheng, he also knew that this person might not be an idiot.
However, Jia Amnesty was unwilling to let his younger brother stand out alone, so he interjected and chatted about gold and stone. As for antiques, Luo Chenyi was young and inexperienced, and he didn't like these old things. They were either funeral objects or funeral objects. It's not like one, two, three, it's not as good as Daiyu.
However, he has a lot of fans in his collection, but Jia She is just like this, and the two chatted very speculatively.
When I heard that Luo Chenyi had collected two large boxes of ancient fans and invited him to enjoy them together at leisure, Jia Amnesty couldn't help but patted him on the shoulder, almost calling him a brother.
After all, this old man can be regarded as a man of temperament.
Luo Chenyi not only smiled, such an old man is much cuter than some honest and hypocritical people, so the two of them became more and more "speculative".
In the inner house, Daiyu came to the Rongqing hall with the support of the two sister-in-laws, and paid a solemn visit to the old lady.
Jia's mother looked at the more elegant and slim granddaughter, thinking of her dead daughter, she couldn't help feeling sad, and couldn't help crying.
"My Yu'er, Yu'er! You are going to hurt me to death!"
"Old ancestor, since my niece is here, we will be able to get along with each other for a long time in the future. Don't be too sad, it will make my niece uneasy."
Today's Jia She and his wife don't know what's wrong, their social skills are all full.Madam Xing's words provoked everyone to look over, and she became more and more proud.
Today's Mrs. Xing, it is not an exaggeration to say "witty words".
"Isn't that exactly what the wife said? With me, the county owner's sister, the ancestors would probably throw our burnt papers behind the wall! But I don't accept it, sister Lin, you Tell me, in terms of ability and filial piety, I am not as good as you, why does the old lady only love you and only love you?"
Wang Xifeng was never willing to be inferior in front of others, and immediately took over the boss of her mother-in-law, and said angrily.
"Because I'm thin-skinned. I'm not like Lian's second sister-in-law, but like Qiao's sister. I'm brazen enough to compete for favor! That's why my grandmother loves me, not you, a shabby hut!"
Daiyu's mouth was naturally unforgiving, and she laughed and teased her.
With all these interruptions, Mother Jia finally let go of her sorrows, and all her joys were left.As for Baoyu, after seeing Sister Lin who had already disguised herself as a woman, she felt cold all over her body and felt a dull pain in her heart.
As for Daiyu, she frowned slightly and tried her best to ignore Baoyu completely.
In such a situation, Mother Jia couldn't help sighing, but Mrs. Wang was overjoyed, fortunately, the daughter of the Lin family was married, otherwise, would she have to let her live in the face of her daughter-in-law?
"Come, come, come, my Yu'er, come and sit next to my grandmother, Yuanyang, I got the crispy cheese and pastries from the palace yesterday and haven't brought them yet? Let Miss Lin try it, it's different from ours, try it fresh."
Yuanyang naturally prepared these according to the old lady's instructions. Now that he heard this, he hastily ordered someone to bring up the dim sum and steamed cheese from the palace. Naturally, it was not only these three or four items, but also Fresh fruits of various colors, because Miss Lin is weak, so even if it is July weather, she does not dare to serve iced tea fruits on the table, but she just splashes them with cold water to remove the coolness.
Daiyu was also grateful for the kindness of the old lady, took the bowl of crispy cheese with a smile and ate a few mouthfuls. She has always had a weak spleen and stomach, so she didn't dare to eat more, for fear that she would not be able to bear it anymore.
Everyone was accustomed to Daiyu's appearance, so they were not surprised.
Only Aunt Xue and Baochai met for the first time. Seeing her acting, I was very surprised. Miss Lin's appetite is not as good as that of the little sparrow.It's better to be my own Baochai, who is plump and lovable, and will be easy to bear in the future. This Jingxiao county lord has a thin body. I'm afraid it will not be good for the heirs, and I will be annoyed that my sister will not agree to have such a son. daughter in law.
Baochai was also amazed by Daiyu's demeanor. Fortunately, such a person is married and has a family. Otherwise, according to the old lady's preference, Rao has confidence in herself and feels that she is not inferior to the prince. However, when facing Miss Lin, she still couldn't help being a little frustrated. Fortunately, her mother and aunt have already made an appointment. In the future, when she marries into the Duke's Mansion...
The Xue family's 30 taels of silver is really not so easy to borrow!
"Ah? This is an inner house after all. He is a man, but he is not good..."
"What are you afraid of? We are all close relatives of the whole family, what's the matter?"
Mother Jia wanted to see her son-in-law, but she didn't take Daiyu's concerns seriously.The avoidance that should be avoided is enough.Today's mother Jia is at the top of the pinnacle tower, and she no longer has to consider other people's feelings.
"This……"
Daiyu hesitated slightly.
"Yuanyang, send someone to the front and tell Lian'er to come in with Yu'er's son-in-law, saying that I want to see that child."
Yuanyang pursed her lips, smiled at Daiyu, then followed the old lady's wishes, turned and left.
Li Wan, Wang Xifeng and others hurriedly took a few boudoir daughters to escape. Jiamu took Daiyu's hand and asked her carefully about Yangzhou and Gusu's life.But are there relatives and relatives of the clan who are open-eyed and scheming?
Although her words were cryptic, Daiyu had a dexterous mind, and she didn't hide her grandmother's questions. She chose to tell a few things openly, and then asked her about how to transfer, teach servants, and manage slaves. Jia Mu immediately eloquent.
She has grown from a great-grandson's daughter-in-law to the old lord of the Jia family. Naturally, she has her own experience in taking care of the servants. Because Yu'er was young, she didn't want her to be contaminated by these things, and she is getting older. , There is also a lack of energy.
She originally planned to wait for Yu'er for a few more years, and then go to study with Feng girl after she understands the matter, but who knows, Mrs. Lin was so impatient that she took Yu'er home, and even married her as a relative, so that she could Some painstaking efforts have become eastward flowing water.
At this moment, Daiyu listened quietly to Jia Mu's instructions, and she was more considerate than her own handling.
The grandparents and grandson talked to their heart's content, completely ignoring Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang and the aunt of Xue's family.As for Baoyu who has entered a state of ignorance, no one takes him seriously.Mrs. Wang, seeing her son like this, was very displeased.
After a while, a little girl suddenly sent a message,
"Second Master Lian and Uncle Lin are here—"
Everyone immediately came back to their senses and stared at the door. Daiyu and Baoyu immediately stood up.
Luo Chenyi entered the Rongqing hall, and when he looked up, he saw the delicate and pretty Daiyu, standing on the left of Jiamu, and the young man in red robe standing on the right was probably Baoyu.
"Meet the old lady!"
After all, it was the first time they met, so the young couple toasted tea to Mother Jia and made a big gift. Mother Jia was naturally overjoyed, and hurriedly asked to help the two of them up, and put the tea that they had prepared a long time ago. The meeting ceremony came up.
Things are all good things, Lao Yu's dragon and phoenix jade pendants, etc., are all in pairs of three or four.
Of course, there are also Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang who are presenting Mrs. Xue's meeting ceremony.
However, if Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang can reluctantly accept their half-respect, then Mrs. Xue, a business woman, needs to salute Daiyu and his wife, because she is the second aunt's biological sister, who is old and They were related by relatives, so both of them avoided her and accepted her gift indifferently.
But if that's the case, Madam Wang and Madam Xue both smiled with a forced face. If they had known this, she should have avoided it with Feng girl just now, and saved herself such a humiliation.
It's a pity that there is no medicine for regret in the world, no matter how regretful Aunt Xue is now, it is already too late.
"This is Baoyu, Bao's second cousin!"
"Oh? How come there are two second cousins in the house, Lian's second brother is also a second cousin, and this Bao's second brother is also a second cousin."
Listening to his wife's introduction, Luo Chenyi asked in a little surprise.
Daiyu has never thought about this matter deeply, since she entered Jia's house as a child, it has been such a rule, who knows?
But at the moment when Luo Chenyi brought it up, she immediately felt that it was weird. Jia Lian was the one who felt more deeply than her. He didn't have an elder brother above him. Although he was not the only son of the master, but because of Big Brother Zhu, he was ranked second. But after Baoyu was born, the old lady said that each room was arranged according to herself, but she, Lian's second master, did not become Lian's uncle, but Baoyu became Bao's second master.
At this moment, Jia Lian can only hehe.
As for the others, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. It has always been such a rule, but asking such a question suddenly really caught people off guard.
"Ah, it's just a small family, just yelling indiscriminately!"
In the end, it was Mrs. Wang who spoke up, and it seemed that she had fooled this section.
"Oh."
Luo Chenyi didn't seem to realize that he was embarrassing his master, so he replied softly, with a look of indifference, which made Mrs. Wang a little annoyed.
Mrs. Wang's complexion is not good, and Jia Lian's complexion is not good. As for Jia's mother, her complexion is not much better.Sure enough, he is not honest, but has 1 minds. Uncle Lin has chosen such a son-in-law, how can he compare with his own Baoyu, who is pure and motivated, and makes people hurt?
Jia's mother complained and complained about the dead Lin Ruhai in her heart, but unfortunately, the matter was a foregone conclusion, and there was no possibility of changing it.Moreover, although Mother Jia despised this son-in-law on the surface, she was more vigilant towards him in her heart. After all, he was Lao Ge's nephew.
Thinking about the imperial concubine in the palace and his own precious jade, if there is really the support of the Luo family, Yuanchun will win the prince again in the future.Then the Jia Mansion will definitely be able to take it to the next level...
It's not that she hasn't thought about this idea before, but it's a pity that the Luo family didn't pay any attention to Jia's disloyalty. Jia's mother had experienced prosperity, so naturally she didn't want to show her face to other people's cold ass. There are not many exchanges between the government, and it has always been neither salty nor light.
Fortunately, now that Yu'er has returned to Beijing, and his own Yu'er is the honor of the county lord, can the Luo family not give face?
Even Luo Chenyi didn't expect that this old lady, who was old and strong, was already plotting against him when they met for the first time.
Fortunately, he did not know.
After a long time, Mother Jia said to the two young children with a serious face,
"Since we are already husband and wife, let's live happily together. Don't be naughty and idle, and let my Yu'er be wronged. The old woman will not obey."
Although these words were addressed to Daiyu and his wife, the meaning of beating was aimed at Luo Chenyi.
"That's right, just such a niece is naturally backed by my Jia family, but I can't tolerate being bullied by outsiders!"
If Jia Mu's words were still a little reserved, Mrs. Wang who interrupted at this moment was talking about Chi Guoguo's beating.
"The calculations from relatives are chilling, don't you think? Grandma."
Luo Chenyi didn't seem to understand Mrs. Wang's words, so he answered such a sentence lightly and cleverly, and successfully changed the faces of everyone in Jia's mansion. Jia's mother's face trembled angrily. The rosary in Mrs. Wang's hand was actually broken. Tick tock drops all over the floor.
Falling into Luo Chenyi's ears, "Ding Ding Dang Dang" seemed to be the sound of a pipa, it's really nice!
As for Jia Lian, after all, he was young and lacked experience, so he was blushing at the moment, which was just a shame.
The huge Rongqing Hall seemed as silent as a cemetery!
Tears flashed faintly in Daiyu's eyes, thinking about the difficult years of her husband and wife in the south of the Yangtze River, thinking about the aggressiveness of the Zhen family, and thinking about the arrogance and rudeness of the Zhen family's children when her father was buried, Daiyu felt more and more sour. Standing there in a daze, without making a sound to save the siege, he turned his head, turning a blind eye to the plea in Jia Mu's eyes.
At this moment, Jia's mother was lamenting in her heart, Yu'er really knew, Yu'er really had resentment in her heart, and Yu'er was going to have a rift with the family!
But she doesn't blame Daiyu, she only hates her son-in-law!
The boy of the Luo family, I really underestimated him.
"What do you mean by brother-in-law Lin? Could it be that sister Lin was embarrassed by members of the Lin clan? The world is really hateful, how dare they do this? Are they all wolf-hearted?"
Baoyu, who was not in the mood at all today, asked nervously.
Looking at Baoyu's innocent face, Luo Chenyi twitched the corners of his mouth twice, seeing that the people in Jia's mansion were really good-looking, and said to Baoyu, "It's not because of the people of the clan, but it's the Zhen family in the south of the Yangtze River. The fellowship with the master actually took away a lot of the property of the ancestors in the family, but it was my incompetence that failed to live up to our master's expectations and could not protect Lin's family property, so I have such a little emotion That's all."
These words are straightforward, what good is your Jia Mansion?The collusion with the Zhen family, coupled with the visit of Mrs. Zhen's family yesterday, isn't this a clear thing?
"Min'er, my Min'er, if you are still alive, you will definitely not let me... It's a pity that my Min'er, with such a bad fate, let me be a white-haired man to a black-haired man!"
In the past, when Mother Jia cried and complained to Jia Min, it would make Madam Wang vomit for a few days, but today, for the first time, she felt that it was good for her aunt to die!
At this moment, Daiyu's reluctant smile was completely restrained.
"Grandmother, we have filial piety after all, but we can't stay here for long. We will come to you later when it's convenient! Two aunts, Mrs. Xue, second cousin Lian, second cousin Bao, and Daiyu will take their leave first!"
She turned around and left, but Luo Chenyi had no intention of staying, and followed Daiyu's footsteps, and stepped out of Rongqing Hall.
Baoyu was at a loss, what happened?Why did sister Lin have such a thunderous rage?
As for Jia Lian, with embarrassment on his face, he hurried out and called out,
"Sister Lin, brother-in-law Lin, please stop, you must not!"
"Second cousin Lian, why don't you do it? Was it when you kissed the Zhen family or when Wang'er met the steward of the Zhen family? Our husband and wife are young and stupid, but we have never had any problems with the second elder brother. The slightest negligence, but today I have to ask why?"
Luo Chenyi asked bluntly.
"Brother-in-law Lin, sister Lin, how can I have such thoughts, it's just involuntary!"
Now that it has been punctured, Jia Lian has nothing to hide, and said with a wry smile.
"It's good to say 'I can't help myself'. I am considerate of my second cousin, and my second cousin is also considerate of my husband and wife. Let's say goodbye today. Let's let it go longer in the future."
Daiyu didn't say a word, but after hearing Jia Lian's explanation, she sneered.
"Second cousin stayed behind, and expressed his apology to the two uncles, and told the eldest uncle that in a few days, I will post a post to invite the old man to come to the house to have wine and enjoy fan noodles together!"
Jia Lian apologized and paid respects along the way, but unfortunately, the two failed to change their minds. After finally getting on the county lord's carriage, Luo Chenyi said to Jia Lian.
"Sister Lin, brother-in-law Lin, it's better to leave!"
I'm afraid that Jia's mansion is about to face a big storm, and he can't protect himself, so now Jia Lian wants to cry but has no tears!
Daiyu trembled with anger, got on the frame, and after the carriage slowly started moving forward, she couldn't hold it back any longer.
Luo Chenyi hugged her tightly, let her beat and struggle, let her tears soak his clothes.
Luo Chenyi's face was dark and gloomy, and his heart seemed to be soaked in these tears, aching and aching.
Jia's mansion, good job; old lady, good job!
After returning to the mansion, Luo Chenyi directly ordered the chariots and horses to be driven into the inner courtyard. Daiyu cried until she was in tears, and even faintly twitched because of her emotional excitement.
"Go, send someone, take the post and go to the imperial hospital to invite an imperial doctor!"
Luo Chenyi gave instructions to Lin Zhongan.
The lord humiliated his minister to death, although he didn't know what happened, but this time when he returned to the mansion, he invited the imperial physician. It can be seen that many things happened during this trip to Jia's mansion, so Lin Zhongan's complexion suddenly turned ugly.
"Grandpa, how is the girl?"
"Hurry up and call the imperial physician, the sooner the better!"
Luo Chenyi didn't have the heart to say anything else at the moment, so he directly instructed him.
Hearing the urgency in the uncle's words, Lin Zhongan didn't dare to delay any longer, and ran out quickly...
Luo Chenyi carried Daiyu halfway into the bedroom, and comforted him,
"Why are you bothering? Annoyed and vomited, you hit me twice to vent your anger, so why bother?"
"Grandmother, grandma... oh... mother..."
Daiyu was sobbing so hard that she couldn't utter a complete sentence.
Seeing her like this, Luo Chenyi stopped comforting her, and slowly rubbed her back to calm her down.
The imperial doctor's footsteps were not slow, and he left after prescribing tranquilizing medicine.
The gossip in Beijing spread the fastest, so early the next morning, the news that Daiyu had fallen ill had already spread throughout the capital, even in the inner garden of the deep palace.
So during the routine greetings, the Empress Dowager even asked about Yuan Chun,
"Mr. Jia, I heard people say that the girl Jingxiao fell ill after visiting Jia Taijun yesterday. Could it be that your natal family took advantage of your power to bully Jingxiao and his wife? Although that girl is the first It’s the first time I’ve seen you, but I really like it.”
Yuan Chun naturally knew this kind of palace news, but she just pretended not to know, and said with a little embarrassment, "The concubine doesn't know, my grandmother loves the Jingxiao County Lord left by her deceased aunt the most, it is absolutely impossible Let her be wronged."
Yuan Chun can only say so.
The empress relies on her status, and has always been too lazy to pay attention to these competitions, but other people are not as magnanimous as the empress. Concubine Wu is also a concubine, and she was crushed by a daughter of the palace. She can swallow this It's strange to have a bad breath!
After all, this Xiande concubine is just the daughter of a fifth-rank official, and she has been aging in the palace. She flew up to the branch and became a noble concubine. No.1 under the Queen.
Concubine Wu Gui Su was not a magnanimous concubine in the past, she was jealous, whipped the palace servants, she was always domineering, now she has the handle of a virtuous concubine, how can she bear it?
"Really? Concubine Xiande doesn't care much about her natal family. As far as I, an outsider, know, Concubine Xiande's family is not very kind to County Lord Jingxiao. It is said that County Lord Jingxiao has lived in Jia's house for five or six years. But all the time they lived in the Bisha cabinet, without even a decent yard, this doesn't seem to be the emphasis that Concubine Xiande said!"
"No, I heard that County Lord Jingxiao was raised together with the concubines in the mansion!"
Zhou Meiren also immediately stood up to show off her well-informed.
"Yes, yes!"
Countless people stood up to testify for Wu Guifei and Zhou Meiren, and everyone spoke righteously.
The empress dowager's complexion suddenly turned ugly, and so did the empress, but she felt refreshed in her heart, watching the play in a serious manner, this beauty's face was stiff and embarrassed, which was also pleasing to the eye.
Greetings today, Concubine Xiande's face was stripped and trampled on the ground.
After being silent for a while, the Queen Mother said,
"After all, he is the county magistrate appointed by the emperor, and he can be regarded as a member of my royal family, so he shouldn't be too negligent!"
Although the old queen's words were light and light, they fell heavily on Yuan Chun's ears.
Yuan Chun, who had returned to Fengzao Palace, couldn't help but drink several large cups of herbal tea, only then did he feel that his heart was much smoother.
After all, she has been in the palace for many years, and the skill of nourishing her spirit is really good. Concubine Xiande directly told her servant girl, "Let Yiren enter the palace on the sixth day of next month."
"Okay, ma'am."
Baoqin is now 24 years old. In another year, when she reaches 25, she actually has a chance to go out of the palace, but she has no choice. She is No.1 next to the concubine Xiande. How about the empress? Are you "willing" to leave the palace by yourself?
Daiyu was indeed ill, so the next day the county lord's mansion sent people to the imperial hospital to invite an imperial physician. As a result of being angry, Daiyu was not seriously ill, she was always groggy, and had a low fever that did not go away.
Luo Chenyi blamed himself a little, he blamed himself for being too impulsive, he overestimated Daiyu's ability to bear, and underestimated the status of Jia's family in Daiyu's heart, so he made a wrong calculation, which led to such a bitter fruit!
It's a pity that no matter how much he blames himself now, it won't help, so he can only pray that Daiyu will get better soon.
As for the Jia family, when can it not be cleaned up?How could he be willing to take Daiyu with him in order to clean up the Jia family.
Daiyu's body has never been in good condition. I have been taking care of her carefully for more than a year, and finally put on some flesh, but in this one night, Daiyu seems to be thinner than before, and Luo Chenyi's heart aches for her haggard appearance. .
However, the imperial physician was not worried about her outbreak of the disease, instead she advised Luo Chenyi that it was a good thing, after all, it broke out for a while, and with careful treatment, the root cause of the disease would not be left in the future.
After hearing the white bearded doctor's words, Luo Chenyi finally felt less depressed in his heart.
There was no movement in Jia's house for two days, and on the third day, Jia Lian and his wife were sent to the door, but unfortunately, they did not see the real master, and even Luo Chenyi did not come out to meet the guests.
Lin Zhongan smiled wryly, and talked about his master's illness. It sounded very dangerous. The county horse hadn't closed his eyes for three days, and he was watching him with a good eye. It was really wrong to neglect relatives, but now the two The master is like this, so he can only help the second master and the second mistress to take care of him.
Ever since Luo Chenyi exposed this title the day before yesterday, Jia Lian always felt that when others called him Second Master, they were laughing at him, and felt uncomfortable all over his body.
Wang Xifeng was eloquent, and after carefully asking about Daiyu's illness, he put down a thick gift list, and the couple said goodbye and left.
It's a good thing I didn't bring the precious jade that looks like a concubine's funeral, otherwise...
Jia Lian and his wife probably didn't read the almanac when they went out, so the unlucky things happened one after another. Wang Xifeng, who had just arrived home, heard that the maid in the palace had sent out the servant, and was almost depressed to death.
Now that the house is in short supply of money, where can I find thousands of taels of silver to pay off this little eunuch?
Therefore, when Wang Xifeng, who had just removed the hairpin and jewelry, heard that his wife was invited, he gritted his teeth for a while, and then took Ping'er to Mrs. Wang's place like a gust of wind.
As for Jia Lian, he is answering in the old lady's room at the moment.
It's a pity that Jia's mother was very dissatisfied with the trip of Jia Lian and his wife, and she didn't know anything about it!
No, maybe I should go out of the house myself!
After hearing Yuan Chun's message, Jia's mother made up her mind to visit Daiyu in person.
After all, Yuan Chun is everything in the family's revival, and she must not make any mistakes.
In the middle of the night, Daiyu finally lost her fever. She opened her eyes and looked at her husband lying on the couch. A warm current flashed in her heart. She was no longer alone. When she opened her eyes, she could always see her in sight. He, this feeling is really good.
This may be the reason why she was able to turn around and leave after getting annoyed with the Jia family the day before yesterday.She has her own home, and she is the Princess Jingxiao who will always be protected.
"Hey, are you awake? Do you need to drink water? Or do you need to change clothes?"
Luo Chenyi woke up suddenly, opened his eyes and looked at the awakened Daiyu, and asked with joy.
"Help me up! I've been lying down for a long time, and I feel so tired!"
After drinking two sips of warm water with his hands, Daiyu said.
"Okay, how is it? Is there anything else that feels uncomfortable? Can I pinch it for you? How about we invite the doctor to come over and take a look?"
Luo Chenyi asked nervously.
"I'm fine, but don't worry about it. I feel bitter when I hear the doctor these two days."
Daiyu said to him, just these two days, how many bitter medicine soups have been poured down, even because the saint heard that she was ill, so he sent a highly respected old doctor to the county lord's mansion to show his respect meaning.
"Okay, do you feel uncomfortable? Do you want to take a bath and change clothes? Or you can wrap a warm handkerchief to wipe your body."
Although Daiyu was drowsy, she didn't completely lose her memory. Thinking of him taking care of herself without pretending to others, she couldn't help but her face became hot and her cheeks flushed.
Under the dim candlelight, such a Daiyu is astonishingly beautiful, a flash of amazement flashed in Luo Chenyi's eyes...
