Red Mansions: No Tears

?In the end, Jia Lian still stayed with Lin Ruhai until the afternoon, but if someone looked at him carefully, he could see that Jia Lian's footsteps as he walked back to the guest house were a little erratic, and there was a faint red light on his face that could not be restrained.

Isn't it a great event?Because Jia Lian took the initiative to 'confess' the real purpose of Jia's family, Lin Ruhai naturally wanted to 'leniently' deal with those who committed crimes and meritorious deeds. After the situation, he promised Jia Lian a sum of "starting silver taels", and then asked Jia Lian to sign several "unequal clauses". Live a little more peacefully and smoothly.

Of course, what Lin Ruhai didn't say was that when the doctor came to the doctor last time, he had already revealed in his words that he was seriously ill, and that he was afraid that time would be short. The most important thing for him right now is to hurry up and arrange all the funeral affairs, so that he is only ten years old. The daughter can live in peace and security.

And Jia Lian, although he has enjoyed the glory and wealth since he was a child, and has been a member of the family who has enjoyed endless glory all the way to the present, and has not seen any great achievements, but he is not a vulgar person without the slightest vision. At least Jia Lian knows very well that the Jia family has never It's not a place where he can say the same, even if he bears the identity of the eldest son of the eldest son, so what?I didn't see that his father was the one who really inherited the title. Just because of the word "filial piety", he had to be forced to move to that remote old garden, and gave up the main courtyard to the second son who was only a fifth-rank official but was favored by the old lady. Does the uncle live in the first room?Not to mention that things in the future are not accurate. In case there is an 'accident' one day, whether he can inherit his father's title is still unknown. Now that someone is willing to support him, let him have the opportunity to go out and break into another world , and what the other party is asking for is nothing more than what he can do with a raise of his hand, why not do it?

Lin Daiyu didn't know that Lin Ruhai did these things again in private. She only heard that Jia Lian had only been settled in the mansion for two days, and she reverted to her old ways again.

More than half a month later, Lin Daiyu heard from the mother-in-law who came here to report that someone from the Jiang family had come again, and this time it was the grandson of her aunt or grandmother, which means that the person who came back was really somewhat related by blood. Is it real cousin?

Because Lin Daiyu didn't hear the news that Lin Ruhai asked her to go to the main courtyard to meet guests, she thought that maybe she would hold a small banquet like the last time Jiang Ke first came, but she just forgot about it after hearing it, and never noticed what the mother-in-law said about Jiang's family. The cousin also brought news of a doctor entering the house.

Old Yan traveled to many places when he was young, and saw a lot of privacy in the palace. Although he stayed in the Jiang family for many years, which was considered a relatively peaceful place compared to other big families, it did not hinder him in the slightest. As soon as he saw Lin Ruhai, he could already see that Lin Ruhai's illness was not an ordinary illness.

Elder Yan didn't wait for a few people to finish their old stories, but just put on a tense face, and called the servant of the Lin family to invite Lin Ruhai back to bed immediately and go up to rest.

The boys couldn't react for a while, and they were still thinking about why this old man commanded them so loudly as soon as he came?It's just that before they asked the master for instructions, the master walked into the bedroom obediently.

Elder Yan asked his apprentice to pull up a chair, then sat down on the side of the bed, and took Lin Ruhai's pulse seriously. After a long time, he said very cautiously: "Master Lin's symptoms don't look like a disease...but …”

"It doesn't look like a disease? Can Mr. Yan see it?" The young man who brought Mr. Yan to the side asked anxiously.

"Fourth brother, don't worry, Mr. Yan has never exaggerated. Since he said that Uncle Lin's illness is problematic, it must be true." Jiang Ke comforted him from the side.

The fourth master of the Jiang family, named Yixuan, is the only son of the Lin family's concubine's aunt who married into the Jiang family back then. The second wife, Su Shi, who was pregnant with a second child, simply recorded Jiang Xuan under her name as her legitimate son. Of course, it was also because Jiang Xuan's biological mother died young, and he was raised by Su Shi when he was very young. His own daughter is much better, but compared to other descendants of the Jiang family who are also concubines, the treatment is already much higher.

The issue of the scarcity of offspring was only the second householder of the Jiang family in the generation of Mr. Jiang, so the concubine sons of the Jiang family were naturally not limited to Jiang Xuan, but among the other concubine sons, there was no such thing as Jiang Xuan. Compared with Xuan's good luck, Jiang Xuan, who was originally pure in heart, had to be grateful to Su Shi.

"I'm not in a hurry. Grandma told my father and I very sadly before that the Lin family has been passed down for several generations, but when it comes to Uncle Lin's generation, there is only one little girl left. When I heard that You come to ask Uncle Lin Biao for advice, but you dare not reveal your identity. She has repeatedly said that if she is not a concubine who is not valued, and a woman who has no ability, our family is not the same as the Lin family. As for being so unfamiliar that even now you have to worry twice about recognizing a relative... I heard that Uncle Lin’s natal family also sent people from their nephews, why don’t you see anyone serving in this room?” Jiang Xuan frowned slightly, turning the room Li looked around, with a slightly dissatisfied tone.

"What did the second uncle and grandma say? Didn't the second uncle explain to her that it was not her problem? Alas! Forget it! There are some things that we juniors can't say, Mr. Yan, have you seen Uncle Lin's behavior?" How's the situation?" Jiang Ke pursed his lips, but didn't criticize much.

"It can be seen... It is indeed not a disease, but a chronic poison. Mr. Lin has been able to delay until now, and the doctor who has been treating you is also very skilled in medicine." Yan Lao replied flatly. road.

"Poison?! What kind of poison? Can it be cured?" Hearing this, Lin Ruhai was also extremely surprised. He thought that the people around him were extremely reliable, so how could anyone have a chance to harm him?What's more, he has never had any grudges against others, who wants to harm him?

"If we found out a few years earlier, we still have a chance, but it's too late to get rid of the poison at this time." Yan Lao stroked his beard and sighed regretfully.

"What does Mr. Yan mean is that the poison in Uncle Lin Biao's body has been poisoned for many years?" Jiang Ke asked knowingly.

"To put it another way, in fact, as long as the other party continues to take this medicine for you, you may live for many more years, but after I got my pulse just now, it seems that the other party has not taken action for a while. , so this toxicity is slowly being stimulated." After thinking for a while, Yan Lao nodded and explained

"But... that's unlikely, right?" Jiang Ke paused in his heart. He wasn't sure how long the "period" was, but as far as he knew, it wasn't Uncle Lin's wife, Jia, who experienced major changes in the Lin family. When Shi died of illness?It's never going to be...

"Old Yan can tell that Uncle Lin Biao is poisoned, why can't he get rid of this poison?" Jiang Xuan questioned Elder Yan unclearly.

"This kind of poison... Actually, I have never seen it with my own eyes. I only know that it should come from a forbidden drug in the palace of the previous dynasty. When I was an imperial physician, I heard several old imperial physicians mention it in passing when they were discussing some old pulse cases. Many concubines in the harem have been poisoned by a kind of poison. This kind of poison is said to be poisonous but not like poison. I only know that taking it for a long time can make a woman unable to conceive. He got sick and passed away one after another. The emperor was deeply afraid that something terrible would appear in the harem, so he ordered the imperial physicians to investigate carefully, and then someone found that thing. I think... Mr. Lin's knees are empty, could it be caused by the poison? It's a pity...the imperial physicians at that time only found incomplete prescriptions, and no one researched the real antidote for a long time, and even the incomplete prescriptions were lost later, so it is not so easy to detoxify now." Yan Lao probably He also felt that his long-standing brand of omnipotence had been shaken, so he used his rare patience and carefully explained to everyone.

"Since it's unsolvable, please, Mr. Yan, can you find a way to delay me for a little longer? My son is still young...I have to arrange everything for her." Lin Ruhai knew that her days might not be long, so she listened After hearing what Old Yan said, he quickly adjusted his mood, motioned to the servant to help him get up and get off the bed, then bowed and bowed, and respectfully begged Old Yan.

"Are you the only daughter you said? I heard that she is also a medicine jar? Would you like me to take a look for her? After all, she still has a long life in the future." Yan Lao, who has always done his own thing and clearly defined his master and obedience, is actually rare. She was so kind for a while, that she took the initiative to say something that could diagnose Lin Daiyu's pulse.

"Since Mr. Yan has brought it up, how can this junior not allow it? Changshun, send someone to invite the eldest girl over, but please don't tell the little girl about my illness...I don't want her to know this bad thing so early. News." Lin Ruhai bowed again to Elder Yan with a happy face, turned his head to give instructions outside the door, and then said to Elder Yan and Brother Jiang Xuan very sincerely.

Jiang Xuan and Jiang Ke looked at each other with worried faces, and then nodded in agreement reluctantly. Although Old Yan never responded, everyone knew that he might not talk much.

Before the eldest daughter of the Lin family arrived, Mr. Yan took Lin Ruhai's pulse carefully again, and then wrote down a prescription, telling Lin Ruhai to take the medicine on time according to this prescription. If there is no accident, it should prolong his life for a few more months. .

Lin Ruhai didn't say any more, but thanked Elder Yan gratefully.

Jiang Xuan on the side also curiously asked Jiang Ke what kind of tempered girl the cousin of the Lin family who had never met was. Unfortunately, although Jiang Ke lived in the Lin family for a month or two, in fact, he only came here every morning and evening when Lin Daiyu They will only meet when the main courtyard pays their respects, and usually the two of them have no chance to meet in private.

However, Jiang Ke did not forget to mention a few words about his suspicion that there might be something wrong with Lin Daiyu's daily medicine, thinking that he hoped that Mr. Yan could take a look at it later, after all, he asked Anyi to get it at that time. For the prescription, after asking several doctors in Yangzhou and neighboring counties, no one saw any problem with it, and even showed them the medicinal residues that were taken out, and the result was that the ingredients of the medicinal materials seemed to be non-existent. Something is wrong. ?
