Red House Reorganization Family
Chapter 26
When the letter arrived, everyone in the Jia family happened to be there. Lin Ruhai seldom sent letters to the Yue family except for his daily New Year’s greetings. And with a smile.
As soon as Lin Daiyu heard that it was her father's letter, she immediately knew what the letter said in general. In the past two months, she had basically accepted it in her heart, not to mention that her father was not going to marry a stranger, but brother Chen's. Mother, a person she didn't hate before...
However, Lin Daiyu had already figured it out, and Jia Mu, who had just learned about it, couldn't accept the good news. She slapped the letter on the table, her hands were shaking with anger, and she said angrily, "Okay! Okay!" !"
Everyone in the Jia family saw the old lady turned pale with anger, and tried to persuade her. Mother Jia's personal maid kept patting her chest to calm her down, and said nervously: "Old lady, if you have anything to do, don't worry about it." Don't get mad at yourself."
Lin Daiyu was also taken aback, she was about to shed tears as she stood by and looked at her grandmother.
After a while of panic, Mother Jia's complexion gradually calmed down, but her brows were still furrowed. Seeing this, Sister Feng asked with concern: "Madam, what happened to Uncle Lin? If there is something wrong, let's solve it together... ..."
But Mother Jia hugged Lin Daiyu and cried, "My miserable Yu'er! How long has your mother been away, and Lin Ruhai remarries regardless of the engagement made by Yue's family? This is completely ignoring my old woman." ah!"
Lin Daiyu felt a little overwhelmed by her grandmother's embrace, and when she heard the old man mention her mother, her tears flowed down unconsciously, which made Jia's mother feel that she was wronged.
While holding her and crying, he said: "Your father also said that he would take you back, and what to do when you go back, just stay with grandma!"
Lin Daiyu was a little anxious when she heard it, but she was choked up and couldn't speak fluently, and she didn't know how to say what she wanted to say.
And the rest of the Jia family at the side knew the reason from the old lady's words. It was Lin Ruhai who was going to marry again. It is impossible for a brother-in-law to be alone at this age, the key point should be what kind of person the other party is."
"Shut up!" Jia's mother was furious at this moment, how could she listen to other people's words, she only felt that Xing's family was annoying.
Mrs. Xing was yelled at by her mother-in-law, and she immediately kept her mouth shut and her shoulders shrunk, but she said in her heart: "What's the point? After my son dies, the daughter-in-law can remarry, but the son-in-law can't do it?"
However, what Mrs. Xing said was actually reasonable, but the timing of what she said was inappropriate. When the old lady's mood was almost relieved, Sister Feng also asked in a low voice: "Old lady, who is the target of Uncle Lin's letter? Whoever remarries has to go through the first wife's family, and Uncle Lin has no other elders, so we can also help..."
"Do you think I can't think of it? It is believed that it is the matchmaker of the old patriarch Bao of the Lin family. He is a widow of the same generation in the Lin family and has a son."
"Ah?" Sister Feng couldn't think of such a candidate, and she said in disbelief: "I heard that the Lin family is not very promising? With Uncle Lin's official position, it is not impossible to marry another young lady, why... ..."
Lin Daiyu listened to Lian's second sister-in-law's disdain for the Lin family, felt a little uncomfortable, and said in a low voice: "Lian's second sister-in-law doesn't know, the brothers of this generation in the Lin family are all good at school, don't tell me Brother Chen is already a Juren, and this year, two more people passed the government examination."
Although Lin Chen is far away in the capital, he knows everything about Gusu and Yangzhou, and he never shy away from Daiyu. Therefore, two elder brothers in the knowing clan have been admitted as scholars, and she is actually like Lin Chen. I feel honored, and I don't want someone to belittle me verbally.
Sister Feng has always liked this cousin, and when she heard what she said, she immediately slapped her lips lightly, and said with a smile: "It's my sister-in-law who doesn't know the truth, sister, don't take offense."
Of course, Lin Daiyu repeatedly said that she did not.
And now that Mother Jia was interrupted by them, she also wanted to think about the reason why the Lin family made such a decision. After all, it was not because her Min'er failed to leave an heir for the Lin family...
What can she say about such a thing?Who let her daughter not live up to expectations?He waved his hand to let everyone else go out, and then only Jiamu and Lin Daiyu were left in the room.
Mother Jia hugged Lin Daiyu and gently touched her head, murmuring: "Yu'er, I will stay with my grandmother from now on, and I won't go anywhere. My grandmother will protect us, Yu'er."
"Grandmother..." Lin Daiyu was very moved, her eyes were moist, and she said apologetically, "I'm sorry..."
Upon hearing this, Mother Jia supported her granddaughter's shoulders and asked, "What? You want to go back to Yangzhou? How can grandma rest assured?"
Lin Daiyu leaned her head lightly on Jia Mu's shoulder, and said in a low voice, "Grandmother, Auntie is a good person, Yu'er will be fine..."
"Auntie?" Mother Jia keenly sensed the familiarity in her tone, and immediately asked, "You know?"
Lin Daiyu didn't want to keep hiding from her grandmother who loves her so much, so she nodded, "Father told me about this in his letter last time, but he said he wanted to tell you personally, so Yu'er didn't tell you, please don't blame me Yuer."
Only then did Jia's mother realize that Yu'er also knew about it, but she couldn't tell from her expression during this time that Daiyu is not someone who can hide her thoughts, has she already accepted it?Or... Or have a relationship with her?
Sighing under my heart, "Tell grandma what kind of person the other party is."
Lin Daiyu couldn't see anything from her grandmother's expression, so she just replied in a low voice: "It's Brother Chen's mother, and she helped the family when she passed away."
"Lin Chen's mother?" Jia's mother looked unclear, and asked again: "Then he also knows?"
"I also learned from my father's letter with Yu'er."
However, Mother Jia couldn't help guessing them maliciously, the expression on her face disappeared unconsciously, she looked at her granddaughter seriously, and asked, "Yu'er, you are innocent, is there any hidden secret in this?"
Lin Daiyu was puzzled, and looked at her grandmother ignorantly, "My granddaughter doesn't understand..."
Naturally, Mother Jia is not good at saying bad things about her son-in-law, but Nanny Lai, who is next to her, understood what the old lady had said, and said to Miss Biao earnestly, "Miss Daiyu, the Lin Chen family has been in Yangzhou all year round. You also have a lot of contact, could it be... that something happened during this time to cover up through the mouth of the patriarch?"
Lin Daiyu is still young, of course she couldn't understand it immediately, but she is smart, and she realized it in a few breaths, and immediately her arms were numb with anger, and she said angrily to Nanny Lai: "Impossible! What? Can you talk nonsense like this?!"
Nanny Lai's status in Rongguo Mansion has always been different from that of ordinary servants. At this time, she was pointed at her nose by a little girl, how could she bear it? What's going on?"
Leaving Aunt Yuan aside, what she said was almost questioning her father's character. Lin Daiyu stared at Nanny Lai for a long time with trembling lips, then turned to look at her grandmother who had been silent all this time, and said very firmly: "Grandmother , not long after Brother Chen and I went to Beijing, Aunt Yuan's family went to Jinling, and then returned to Gusu Lin's family to stay for several months before returning, how can we have anything to do with father?"
"So that's the case, Nanny Lai is also worried..."
It was the first time that Lin Daiyu interrupted her grandmother's words in disregard of etiquette, and said word by word: "Grandma, my father marries Yu'er again, and I feel sorry for my mother, but Yu'er will never doubt the character of my father and aunt indiscriminately." " Biting his lip, he said indifferently: "Grandmother, let Yu'er go back to Yangzhou, Yu'er trusts Daddy."
Mother Jia looked at her sadly, "Yu'er, are you blaming me?"
Lin Daiyu shook her head, sniffed her nose, and said firmly: "Grandmother's kindness to Yu'er, Yu'er will always remember it in her heart, and will never forget it, but please believe me, and please rest assured, even if Yu'er returns to Yangzhou It'll be fine."
In any case, Mother Jia really didn't have any bad intentions for her granddaughter. Hearing what she said at this time, she was very heartbroken but couldn't bear to criticize anything, so she could only agree.
It's just that she couldn't rest assured, and while she had someone pack Daiyu's things, she also asked Jia Lian to pack up and send her back in person.
Jia Lian naturally obeyed the elders' instructions, and asked Sister Feng to clean up for him when he returned. The husband and wife showed reluctance to be together, but they were all thinking about Yangzhou skinny horses and so on, and they couldn't wait.
The entire Rongguo Mansion knew that Lin Daiyu was going back to Yangzhou, so the sisters were naturally reluctant, and they came to Daiyu's room to talk to her almost every day to express their reluctance.
Lin Daiyu was also reluctant to part with them, but she could only pick up some favorites from her own things and give them to her sisters one by one, "Sisters, don't dislike them, just keep them in mind, and there will always be a chance to see you again in the future."
However, Yangzhou is far away for them. The Jia family girls who have never left the capital and even seldom go out, can't even imagine when the day of goodbye...
Before leaving, Lin Daiyu went to bid farewell to her grandmother. The grandparents and grandchildren hugged and cried for a while, and they were finally relieved, and they would not part with regrets.
On the day of departure, Lin Chen arrived at Rongguo Mansion early, and went to the pier together in Daiyu's carriage.
"Since Yu'er left, brother Chen is alone in Beijing..."
Lin Chen shook his head nonchalantly, and said with a smile, "Brother is already an adult, so don't worry about you little man."
Lin Daiyu was holding the corner of his clothes with her fingers, and the corners of her eyes were slightly wet.
Seeing this, Lin Chen sighed softly, and said, "If I pass the exam, I will go back. Even if I fail, uncle may be able to return to Beijing to report on his work?"
"My brother will definitely pass high school!"
As soon as Lin Daiyu heard that it was her father's letter, she immediately knew what the letter said in general. In the past two months, she had basically accepted it in her heart, not to mention that her father was not going to marry a stranger, but brother Chen's. Mother, a person she didn't hate before...
