The Opening of the Red Chamber

After Lin Fan wrote the letter and sealed it with wax, he sent someone to deliver it to Lin Shisi.

In the next period of time, she just did what she had to do, watching the play quietly under the name of 'retreat'.Leaving aside the messy incident at Ningguo Mansion, just the family separation incident at Rongguo Mansion immediately made a commotion that everyone inside and outside the mansion knew about.

People at this time have too few ways to entertain, and the biggest thing after tea and dinner is to get together with the parents and the west. If there is something as big as a sesame seed in each family, it will be described and magnified vividly.

Rongguo Mansion has always been the object of attention of the noble circle in Beijing since Dafang took over as his home.

No, even the sage who was recovering from illness knew about the family separation incident that caused a lot of trouble.All the saints knew about it, and almost everyone on Jia She's head knew about it.However, everyone was unanimously silent on this matter.It seemed that they were all waiting for the second room, who had been holding back for a long time, to make a big move, or waiting for this family drama to end quietly.

In the noble circles in Beijing, the first important topic after dinner is the matter of the separation of the Rongguo Mansion.

After all, Rongguo Mansion is an old aristocratic family, and it came here with Taizu Dajiangshan.The glory of more than 100 years, this foundation is not generally deep in Beijing, even though it is the generation of Jia She, and there are not many talented heirs in the next generation, the favor of the Taizu back then, it is also necessary to take it back Extra easy.

In the past, Rongguo Mansion was the head of the second house, and they often did some trivial and inconspicuous things.

But now Jia She is the head of the family, although Jia She's talent is not conspicuous, but this person has been very observant in the past few years.His brain is not flexible, but he is obedient.All the people in the courtroom knew that the sage sitting on the chair liked this kind of person the most. He told people to go east and not west, and he was so obedient and comfortable.

It's no wonder that Mrs. Jia gave up the separation of the family, and the big house of Rongguo Mansion also obeyed.

Saints like people who behave according to the rules. No wonder this time the division in the Rongguo Mansion just watched and kept silent.

Jia Shen never thought that at this age, the old lady at home would be so considerate on his side, and he really didn't expect that there would be such a day that he would be able to take care of the entire honor. The national government is completely in control.

Separation is a very frustrating thing, but the current old lady seems to have taken the wrong medicine overnight and changed her temperament.Such a situation of God's help is like a dream.Therefore, all the people in the big house prayed unanimously, the only thing they had ever done before, that they must do everything possible to finish the separation of the family in such a state as the old lady.

But not everything is as smooth as imagined.

Although the old lady asked for a separation, she asked the children to stay.Because Jia Amnesty invited several private school teachers to stay at home, the old lady insisted on keeping Baoyu, Tanchun, and Jia Huan from the second room.It also clearly pointed out that Baoyu and Jia Huan were allowed to live in the small courtyard where Jia Amnesty lived and then let the second room move in, and the priority was to study.

In addition, Sister Sanchun's women's class should not be left behind, and she also proposed that Mrs. Xing and Jia She should go and find a nanny to teach.

Such orders and arrangements made Erfang extremely depressed.The relationship is separated, just move out the generation of the second bedroom.But the old lady didn't look confused at all, she knew exactly what she was doing in her mind, and she also gave a clear reason why she did it.

It was precisely because of the situation of the old lady that Jia Amnesty accelerated her speed even more.

This is the Chinese New Year, February [-]st.

As the patriarch, Jia Zhen from the Ningfu next door opened the ancestral hall, and with many witnesses, the family was clearly separated.

The next thing is to hand over the moving event to the servants.

Erfang and the few people in the Ning Mansion, who had ghosts in their hearts, naturally restrained their movements a lot these days.Xiaorong's grandma, Qin Keqing, recovered from her illness naturally.

Daxing Jianyuan 25th year, March, spring.

After Erfang moved out of Rongguo Mansion, Jia She quickly replaced the plaque of Rongguo Mansion with the General's Mansion.This well-behaved behavior satisfied the saint very much, and even made the third and fourth sons of the prison state praise him in private in the court hall.

The sage took a fancy to the courtiers who obeyed the rules, and vaguely set up a ecstasy formation for everyone.

The third and fourth princes of Jian Guo naturally have their own thoughts, especially the fourth prince.After the news came from the hidden guards under him that Grandma Xiaorong's condition in Ningguo Mansion had improved, she was in a trance all afternoon.

Regardless of the disturbances from the outside world, Lin Fan concentrated on staying in his Yaoquanxuan to live a nourishing life, waiting patiently.

Every now and then, I went to Ningguo Mansion to see the sick Grandma Xiao Rong, and when she was in good health, I dragged her here, wiped the dominoes with Sister Feng, and then poured two drops of it into Qin Keqing's cup. Three drops of clear water from the base of 1073ts.More often than not, they would give Sister Feng, Qin Keqing and others under the pretext of giving nutritious food to the topic of health and beauty that has remained unchanged for thousands of years among women.This made it easier for him to stuff something into the share for Qin Keqing.Make sure to keep her body strong so that she can deal with emergencies at any time.

Uncle Mei's reply came only after the second room had completely moved out. This time, Lin Ruhai's letter to Lin Fan really put Lin Fan in a difficult situation.After browsing through the list of young talents handed over by Lin Fan, the father agreed very much and said that the daughter is still young, so we can wait two years to discuss this matter.He also told Lin Fan that no matter who came to propose marriage, just say that he was young and not mention it.

The real reason behind it, in fact, both Uncle Mei and Lin Fan are very clear: the person on this chair is going to be replaced, and it's not too late to talk about marriage after the replacement.If one is not careful and has a relationship with someone, it is still unclear how his head will be lost.

Avoid talking about it, and change the topic.

This is the operation guide given to Lin Fan by Uncle Mei. Of course, his own father also sighed in his heart. Regardless of all his status and family background, he is actually very optimistic about the Seventh Prince.The ideal is so full, the reality is so skinny that it will kill people.As for Jia's mother's situation, Dad made it even more clear that it's none of your business, so just don't point fingers.As a junior, Lin Fan doesn't need to talk too much, he just needs to calm down and do what a junior should do.

Uncle Mei's reference seems to be Lin Fan's reassurance.

The beginning of spring after a heavy snowstorm is often accompanied by famine and plague.

The scene in mid-March.

It seems that there have been many beggars on the streets of central Beijing overnight, and all of them are begging along the street with yellow, emaciated and ragged clothes.The ruined temples on the outskirts of Beijing are also full of these people, but wherever they can settle, they are always there.Their accents are mixed, and they are very oriented towards people from other places.Although it's spring, the temperature still hasn't risen much. It's frighteningly cold at night. In the early morning of the next day, soldiers patrolling the city will always see carts pulling the frozen and starved corpses out of the city and throwing them outside the city. Go to the mass grave.

Lin Fan would hear such words every day, and the boys and women who were in charge of purchasing in the yard always spoke bitterly.

It's a good thing that the temperature hasn't risen, but once it rises, more people will die.

Lin Fan didn't know what the Seventh Prince was up to lately, but she knew that before Chinese New Year, the sage had instructed him and clearly asked him to be responsible for the snow disaster.Another thing that chills Lin Fan's heart is the food storage. After checking for so long, he has not seen any action.At the beginning, she really suspected that it was done by that cruel and merciless person, Fifth Master.But now, she has vaguely noticed something is wrong, but she doesn't have the guts to think about it carefully.I simply did it myself, completely tied up this idea, and hinted at myself in my heart, and I will deal with it when I have a chance in the future.

In the 25th year of Daxing Jianyuan, there was an indescribable bad luck.

The situation in court became more and more complicated. Just looking at his uncle's black face after he went down to court every day, Lin Fan felt that this day was getting more and more difficult.It's really sweating for my uncle who has to go to the court for a whole morning every day.

The old lady's body may have really caught the cold during the Chinese New Year, and when she gets old, she is even more ill and debilitated. Now that the weather is not getting warmer, her old man can only stay in the house to recuperate.Lin Fan also went to ask An to sit and talk with her old man whenever he was free.

It seems that everything is going smoothly and peacefully, but there is an indescribable weirdness and uneasiness sneaking in the invisible corner.

At the end of March, Lin Fanzhao went to check the shop he opened as usual.

This trip, I don't know if it was bad luck, or someone was waiting, and I met Qi Ye, whom I hadn't seen for a month.

In the private room on the top floor of the teahouse, Lin Fan looked at Qi Ye who was sitting opposite him, and smiled silently.

I haven't seen him for more than a month, and he seems to have changed a little bit.The gloom in his eyes was a little more, his face was still handsome and eye-catching, and his body was getting stronger and taller wrapped in a navy blue brocade robe, which replaced a lot of the childish temperament before.Now he is full of extravagance, and his every move has the charm of a mature man. Although it is not much, it cannot be ignored.

After entering the tea, Lin Fan said impatiently, "Master Qi, this tea is already the second one. Could it be that Master Qi is really here to invite me to drink tea today?"

"Your determination is not as good as when you were a child." The Seventh Prince pointed to the purple clay pot, playing with the tea ceremony with smooth movements, and said very calmly, "Have you read the list I gave you? Do you have any intentions?"

Lin Fan couldn't help laughing, and was dumbfounded for a moment.After a while, she said: "I said, I'm still young, I don't want to talk about this matter."

"It's not too young, it's fourteen years old."

"It's more appropriate to leave this matter to my father after all."

"Didn't you already tell him?" There was a bit of doubt in his voice for a moment.

"Well, my father's opinion is the same as mine." Lin Fan smiled lightly, "Seventh Master, you know that I am the only child under my father's knees. I have been pampered by my parents since I was a child. After I'm married, how could my father be willing to marry me off so early?"

"Marrying and making a marriage contract are two different things."
