Red Mansions: No Tears

?In other words, after the banquet at Prince Zhongsu’s mansion that day, Zhao Hui received a letter of approval from his father, Lord Zhongsu. Greetings, after all, there is a blind woman in the harem coveting his family's third girl, if I don't say it in advance, in case the emperor misunderstands that their family has reached a consensus with a certain family, and then foolishly orders a marriage what to do?

Of course, it's not up to Zhao Hui, a junior, to worry about the elders' worries. What worries him now is when is the best time to mention this matter to Lin Yu?It seems that it will not work at the moment, after all, it is less than half a year before Chun Wei is due. He is looking forward to Lin Yu's good grades in the general examination and palace examination, and a decent official position, so that those people will know whether his sister-in-law is If they have no skills, it will also prevent them from making fun of his sister behind his back in order to marry him off as soon as possible, but in the end he only finds a young man who seems to have no future. Maybe some people will wonder if they are bullying others in the Zhongsu Palace and forcing a man who has no future. A child from a poor family with no power married a concubine from the royal family with excellent characters... But since Lin Yu is the heir of the late Lord Lin, he shouldn't be counted among the children from a poor family, right? ?It should be regarded as the descendant of the four generations of princes, right?Zhao Hui thought with some hesitation.

It was so hard to wait and wait, wait until Lin Yu survived the nine days and seven nights of the general examination, and then waited until the results of the list came out, and passed the No. 90 seventh in the exam, which was neither good nor bad. Zhao Hui finally decided to visit Lin's house in person. In fact, this is also Zhao Hui It was the first time he stepped into the door of the Lin family, even though he knew that his sister was so diligent in going through the door of the Lin family as if she was only going to the garden of his palace, but he and Lin Yu have always maintained a gentle friendship.

So even Lin Yu didn't understand why such a big man came to the door on a whim today... to visit friends? !All right!He really didn't think that he and Zhao Huineng could be regarded as friends, after all, it must have been two years since he met Zhao Hui, right?But the two of them have never met each other a few times, and they have participated in the gatherings of those people a few times, and they are all in the light of Jiang Ke, and have not been formally invited by the other party, so he always thinks that he and those princely families The children of birth are people from two completely different worlds. There is no intersection in the past, and there will be no intersection in the future.

"Brother Zhao is really a rare visitor, why come here when you are free?" Lin Yu knew that Zhao Hui had an errand in the Ministry of War, and that he was a doctor in the Ministry of Military Selection—a position with real power.

"I know that your test results have already come out, so I want to ask you what plans you have for the future? How sure are you of the palace test in half a month?" Zhao Hui didn't even say a word of nonsense, so let's talk about Lin Yu's first. The future begins to understand.

"Uh...Actually, I'm really not sure about the palace exam. After all, I'm taking the exam in the eyes of the emperor and many important people, but I will do my best. As for the future...in the future..." Lin Yu is very concerned about this future. He was really hesitant about what to do. He knew that Jiang Ke could fill in the position of chief executive so quickly back then. Zhao Hui and Cheng Huai'an must have put in a lot of effort, but they had been friends for a few years at least. The Jiang family is also a family of rich merchants who dominate the south of the Yangtze River. It seems that they are short of everything, but they are not short of money.

But Lin Ke himself, in order not to show his feet in front of the Jia family, has always shown that he is just a poverty-stricken family who is on the verge of decline, has no power and no wealth. The kind of mediocre person who can be caught casually on the street, no one would want to spend time and investment on him, right?But since this is the case, what is the purpose of Zhao Hui coming here today?Is it for his sister? !No way~~~ Yu'er already has a husband's family, and the partner is Jiang Ke, whom they know so well. Could it be that these people have no lower limit to the point where "friends' wives can be bullied"? !

"How can you say that you are not sure? Although you can be on the list in the general examination, the palace examination is just another review of your ability, but you shouldn't be so unconfident in yourself..." Zhao Hui slapped Lin Yu in a big way After the article, the topic suddenly changed and he said: "If you don't even have this ability, how can I rest assured that my sister will marry you? The father and king have already agreed to ask for the title of county head for Hua'er. Think about it. Can the magistrate of the dignified county only be assigned to a small official? Even if you don’t do it for yourself or for Hua’er, what about your sister? I heard that next year at the latest, Zixu may be moved to another level, and Zixu will not be more than [-] years old. You will be able to take up the position of the fifth rank next year, and you will have a bright future in the future, aren't you afraid that people in the Jiang family will look down on your sister because your future is not as good as Zixu?"

"Wait, wait a minute, Brother Zhao, what are you talking about now? Me? With your sister!?" Lin Yu was stunned for a moment, he... married a county lord? !is it possible? !

"What? You don't want to?! Do you dislike her for being inferior to those delicate little girls? Or is it because of those inexplicable rumors?!" Zhao Hui looked at Lin Yu's dull face, and misunderstood Lin Yu because he knew what Zhao Hua said earlier I have kissed several times, but because of various accidents that ended, I feel repulsed by my sister, afraid that I will be implicated too.

"No! No! No! It's not that I don't want to... It's just that this is my lifelong event after all. Brother Zhao let me think about it... think about it..." Lin Yu shook his head in deep fear, and at the same time nervously defended himself The abnormality was explained.

Zhao Hui silently looked Lin Yu up and down a few times, and concluded that Lin Yu's weird expression at this time was not displeased with his sister at all, but more of the shock and uneasiness after hearing the news, so he calmed down Many, I thought that as long as Lin Yu didn't hate her sister, other things would not be difficult, and whether Lin Yu's future official career would be smooth, even with the help of the old Lin family, he still had to rely on the palace, but these things don't have to be taken care of. Said on the stage.

"I still need to think about it? Forget it! Just think about it slowly! It's not like my sister can't find someone to marry!" Zhao Hui couldn't tell if she was a little dissatisfied with Lin Yu's hesitation, but if she thought about it further, if Lin Yu He also felt unhappy for agreeing too quickly, so it's better not to get entangled in such trivial matters.

After Zhao Hui left, Lin Yu sat there in a daze for a long time before he sighed weakly. The news brought by Zhao Hui made him very uneasy. He thought that this might be the halo of the so-called time traveler, right?Although he is not a princess or princess, the county lord is also a lord. I heard that the county lord's son-in-law is also paid?Does that mean that as long as he treats sister Zhao Hui better, even if he can't be an official, he will at least have a living allowance?But not being an official... Hehe~ Even if you think about it, you know that it is impossible, Zhao Hui will not accept this kind of thing, let alone Prince Zhongsu! !

"Master, what kind of girl is Zhen Guogong talking about... Is it Miss Zhao San who often comes to play with the eldest girl?" Shi Yan looked at his uncle's distressed expression, thinking that the master was worried about whether he would marry a What strange woman is back, oh!It is said that she belongs to some kind of county lord, but the younger sister of the Duke of Zhen...how is it so familiar?After thinking about it, after thinking about it, he finally figured out who the other party was.

"Miss Zhao San? That's right! I was really scared for a while, but... does my sister know?" Lin Yu suddenly felt more pressure when he heard the words... It sounds good to have a girlfriend becoming a sister-in-law, at least he doesn't have to in the future Worried about sister-in-law issues, aren't you?But I heard that Yu'er and Miss Zhao San are very close, and they were invited to the palace to attend a banquet before, did Yu'er know about this long ago?But if he knew it earlier, why didn't he tell him first?Could it be that he thinks he is not good enough for the little girl?Or do you think people are just joking?He is more willing to believe the latter, after all, the identities of the two are too different.

After much deliberation, Lin Yu decided to ask his sister. Anyway, there is nothing good to say about my family. Besides, marriage is a major event. It is always necessary to play the gongs and drums. Is it possible that he can hide it from Lin Daiyu? , Marry someone in by yourself?

Lin Daiyu had heard about Zhao Hui's visit a long time ago, and she was wondering if Zhao Hui came to tell Lin Yu about the marriage of the two families. Since she and Zhao Hua talked about the matter in the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, Zhao Hua has not been very happy. It must be somewhat shy to pay a visit, right?And maybe a little scared?

Because after the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, the matter of discussing relatives faded away, and it took several months to pass. Lin Daiyu remembered Zhao Hua's expression when he came to visit again a few days ago. Later, Mammy Yu also found out from the mothers-in-law who came with Zhao Hua that Mother Jia seemed to have gone to Princess Zhongsu as a lobbyist through Princess Nan'an, with the purpose of proposing to marry Zhao Hua for Jia Baoyu, but Mrs. Nan'an The concubine went there many times, but each time she was politely rejected by Princess Zhongsu or changed the subject.

Although those who know the inside story know that Jia Mu's wishful thinking will not succeed, but Zhao Hua doesn't know it!Princess Zhongsu would not tell Zhao Hua everything, so Zhao Hua didn't know that his aunt never wanted a Jia Baoyu who used pity for girls as a cover, but was indistinctly fake and serious with the girls , and didn't know that the marriage between her and Lin Yu was just a chance. As time went by, Zhao Hua became more and more disappointed and panicked.

Lin Daiyu looked distressed, but Zhao Hua never complained to her, and she couldn't comfort him to wait at ease.

Recently, several things happened in Rongguo Duke's mansion. First, Concubine Xiande once again expressed her approval of the object of her biological mother, Mrs. Wang's fancy, by rewarding items in the palace, and agreed to let Jia Baoyu marry Xue Baochai as his wife. It's just that Jia's mother is still struggling for the last time, but unfortunately she can't do anything here. The historian also made an engagement for Shi Xiangyun last year, but it also failed to make Jia's mother get what she wanted; one is that Jia She found a marriage for Jia Yingchun, but I don't know Is it because of some changes in the plot? The object of Jia Amnesty's interview is not Sun Shaozu, but a wealthy businessman from Shandong. Unfortunately, the other party is too old, already in his 30s. Jia Yingchun married and continued, but at least it has been revealed that Jia Yingchun The result of Yingchun getting rid of the tragic fate, and the last one, which Lin Daiyu thinks is likely to be a precursor to the downfall of the Jia family - Jia Zheng's job was dismissed, it is said that because he made a big mistake in the job and was discovered by his superiors, so the boss was angry, Let him go home and eat himself.

But when Lin Daiyu heard the news, she couldn't figure it out. Jia Zheng had been in the position of wailang in the Ministry of Industry for more than ten years, and he had never taken on any major responsibilities. How could he do anything big enough to make him lose his job? Errand mistake?The only possibility is that someone wants to touch the Jia family, right?

It's a pity that there is no time for Lin Daiyu to guess wildly at this moment. As soon as Youshi arrived, a woman came to pass a message: "The uncle ordered the kitchen to prepare a table of wine and vegetables in the front yard in the afternoon, and asked the old slave to come and invite the eldest girl to have dinner together." ?
