Red Mansions: No Tears

?Suzhou in the twelfth lunar month is a bit cold and occasionally snows, but it is much warmer than the north.

In the Lin family, now there are only two Lin Yu and Lin Daiyu who are no more than half-children in the eyes of others, and Lin Daiyu is the master. However, these two people have secrets that they have no intention of or dare not let others know, so except for the dozen or so who were brought over from Yangzhou at the beginning As servants, they never bought people into the mansion again, but these people also made them feel that life was really a luxury. Lin Daiyu had previously experienced a period of life surrounded by seven or eight women and maids, and she didn't think it was a big deal, but two lifetimes He had never been a rich man before, and if he hadn't been lucky enough to adopt Lin Ruhai's name, Lin Yu, who had no chance to do so, would have been really awkward for a while. Losing the scholarly prestige of the Lin family, fortunately, Lin Yu was able to live up to his expectations. He bravely survived that period of time relying only on the little things he had seen in the Jiang family before.

In fact, Lin Yu's idea is that no matter how unbelievable she is, she can't be underestimated by sister Lin just because of such a trivial matter. Otherwise, how can she believe that his brother can protect her in the future?It's impossible to have a brother, so sister Lin was deceived by that fake stone, right? !After thinking about it this way, Lin Yu slowly changed some of his original personality. Although he still had a lot of concerns about his official career and was not generous enough, he would not be timid and bullied by the people under him.

Lin Daiyu naturally saw Lin Yu's care and concern for her, and understood that this dear friend was probably a Daiyu fan in his previous life. She loves her deeply, but even though she knows that Lin Yu won't harm her, she still doesn't intend to tell Lin Yu her secret.

It had just snowed the day before, and taking advantage of the rare good weather, Lin Daiyu ordered Ziyun and Xueyan to prepare the stove and refreshments. After lunch, they put on their cloaks and happily went to read a book in the waterside pavilion in the garden. The whole person leaned lazily on the railing, and just as the second cup of hot tea entered his stomach, a figure hurried over not far away.

"It's such a cold day, why doesn't Yu'er rest in the house?" Lin Yu had just finished warming the book when he heard the young servant Chang'an say that the eldest girl was admiring flowers in the garden. A wintersweet and a few camellias, where else are there flowers to enjoy? !Don't miss that fake stone because you can't go to the capital!

"It has been snowing for a few days, and I have been nestling in the room. I feel uncomfortable all over the body. The sun is rarely out today, so I naturally want to come out to bask in the sun to get rid of the mold. My brother is here just in time. Why don't you sit with me! Snow Goose , Pour a cup of tea for brother, brother, look at the plum blossoms after the snow melts, don’t they look particularly bright? I wonder if I should wait for someone to pick some and make desserts.” Lin Daiyu invited Lin Yu to sit down with a smile A view together.

"It's good that you're happy. We're in our own house, and no one will make irresponsible remarks." Lin Yu never said anything bad about Lin Daiyu's request, and even now he turned his head and called a few idlers in the distance. The mother-in-law who had nothing to do went to pick flowers.

"Thank you brother!" Lin Daiyu glanced at the women who were busy because of the master's order, and thanked Lin Yu sincerely.

"What do you say thank you to my brother? Even if I don't mention it, do they dare not listen to you? After all, you are..." Lin Yu rubbed her head in embarrassment. She always felt that all this belonged to Lin Daiyu. It's just an outsider who came halfway.

"What am I? Since Daddy recognizes elder brother as his son, elder brother is the heir of the Lin family. Besides, Yu'er will get married sooner or later. If there is no elder brother, these things will fall into the hands of others in the future, so elder brother doesn't have to worry about anything at all. "Lin Daiyu smiled slightly, and explained Lin Yu without any grievances.

"That's right~ But..." Lin Yu understands that Lin Daiyu's temperament is not like the bitter and mean character described in the book, she just doesn't like to talk about ordinary things. If you ask him to hear someone say such a thing, he must turn his face against that person. His sister is so cute, how can he be stingy? !

"The day before yesterday, I was still thinking that my brother's actions these days are becoming more and more like a famous son who lived in the Lin family since he was a child. I was quite relieved that my father would succeed me. Why are you so resigned now? "Lin Daiyu laughed.

"Where do I have it! No matter how incompetent I am, I won't fall into the reputation of the Lin family! It's just that in front of my sister...it's a bit different." After Lin Yu retorted loudly, she blushed again in shame, and said in a low voice explained.

"What's the difference? People say, 'A brother is like a father, and a sister-in-law is like a mother'. Since Yu'er has called you elder brother, she has already recognized and respected you. Which lady will be lucky enough to be Yu'er's sister-in-law in the future , Yu'er will respect her as well." Lin Daiyu slightly suppressed her smile and said solemnly.

"Brother understands, brother will never be like this again." Lin Yu automatically ignored the second half of what Lin Daiyu said. He really hadn't thought about what kind of girl he would marry in the future. It is generally customary to get married and have children before 12, but he thinks it's not too late to think about it after [-], um...he's only [-] years old, don't worry!Not urgent!

Just turning around and thinking about it, Lin Daiyu is ten years old this year, and he will reach the age of Ji in five years, and Jiang Ke will be in his twenties by then, and he is only 17 years old... If my sister wants to get married, it seems that there is no hostess in the family to preside over important events. Too appropriate?I just don't know if Jiang Ke is willing to wait for three more years?Besides, my sister is weak, so it would be more appropriate to wait two years before getting married.

Lin Yu was stunned silently, but forgot that there was Lin Daiyu beside her. Lin Daiyu didn't care how unconstrained Lin Yu was at the moment, but seeing that he was silent, she casually picked up the book on the table and continued to walk slowly. Look slowly.

After an unknown amount of time, a gust of cold wind blew, and Lin Yu shivered a few times, only to regain his senses. Seeing that it was getting late, he persuaded: "Sister, let's go back to the yard earlier. When can't you watch it? But if you accidentally catch a cold, it will be bad."

"Okay, brother, go back first, I'll let someone tidy up and go back." Lin Daiyu put down her book, and nodded obediently.

Seeing that the maidservants serving Lin Daiyu had already started to pack their things, Lin Yu knew that Lin Daiyu would not take advantage of him to leave first without knowing what was going on, and would stay secretly and not leave, so she hurried back to her yard.

Ever since Jia Lian left, Lin Yu was a little worried. She was afraid that Jia's mother would send someone to force Lin Daiyu into Rongguo's mansion when she saw that Lin Daiyu hadn't returned. He waited and waited, from summer to winter, from snowflakes to spring, but no one from the Jia family came to the door, so he was slightly relieved, but his mood didn't seem to be much happier because no one from the Jia family came to the door.

At the beginning, when Lin Ruhai recognized Lin Yu as his son, he agreed that Lin Yu would still be able to provide for Dow's retirement, so Dow naturally returned to Suzhou with Lin Yu's brothers and sisters. Originally, Lin Yu thought that Dow no longer had to face With the pressure of life, it should be possible to live a happy life for a few more years. Who knows that this good life has only passed for more than a year, and Dow still fell down.

"Grandma, you need to get better soon. You promised to look after your grandson's wife, but you must not break your promise. You taught your grandson not to lose faith easily. Have you forgotten?" Lin Yu Having depended on Tao Shi for so many years, and being the grandparents of direct relatives, the friendship is naturally deeper than that of Lin Ruhai, who passed away just after he recognized his father. At this time, he was kneeling in front of Tao Shi's bed, feeding Tao Shi medicine carefully, while Weeping in a low voice.

"Stupid child~ Grandma is old... Birth, old age, sickness and death are inherently impermanent things in life, cough! Cough! Even I can't control myself, but grandma can't bear it...I can't bear you~." Tao Shi looked tired, and his tone was erratic Said.

"Grandma..." How could Lin Yu not understand these truths in his heart, but he still felt that he couldn't help but feel sad.

"Brother Yu, remember! You are already Master Lin's son, and you must study hard in the future. Be the lintel of Master Lin's family. If... don't forget your parents who have passed away for many years. The eldest girl is a good and good child. You You need to take better care of her, you know?" Dao took a breath for a while, but he didn't forget to tell his grandson to study hard and make progress, and to treat Lin Daiyu well.

Lin Yu nodded repeatedly and replied: "Grandson understands, grandma, don't worry, grandson will definitely study hard to get fame, and he will be very, very good to his sister."

"That's good, that's good." After hearing Lin Yu's promise, Dow slowly closed his eyes as if feeling relieved.

Seeing that Tao Shi seemed to be asleep, Lin Yu didn't dare to disturb her any more. After gently covering Tao Shi with the quilt, she quietly stepped out of the room.

"Brother, is Grandma Tao alright?" Lin Daiyu came and just saw Lin Yu coming out of the room, so she hurriedly asked with concern.

"Well! Grandma... After all, she is getting old, and we lived like that before... The doctor also said that her body has long been corrupted, and it is difficult to recover even if she wants to raise her. I am happy that grandma can finally live a good life, but I never thought about whether her body can survive..." Lin Yu expressed her regret to Lin Daiyu with tears streaming down her face.

"Brother, don't worry about it. Grandma Tao is a benevolent elder. She must have known that her body would not last long, and she was worried that her brother would think wildly and worry about her. That's why she didn't confess to her brother. What we can do now Just let her feel happy while she is still alive, this is the filial piety of a junior." Lin Daiyu persuaded softly.

Hearing this, Lin Yu felt quite reasonable in his heart. Since life is inevitable, even if he is reluctant to part with Dow, he can't make Dow feel uneasy when he leaves...

So Lin Yu carefully hid her sad emotions. Occasionally, when taking care of Dow, she would talk about trivial things that would make Dow happy. carefulness.

On a certain autumn afternoon, Dow passed away peacefully amidst the voice of his grandson. ?
