[Red Mansions] The Great Sage gets married

Jiangnan has been the place with the most prosperous literary style in all dynasties. Literati and poets emerge in endlessly, each leading the style for a hundred years.

In the current dynasty, there was a generation of book eunuchs from the Lin family in Gusu, and his ancestors once attacked Liehou. Among the scholars of Qingliu, he was more noble.

The little gentleman of the Lin family, who was born with poems and wine, and with a side hat, has already won the case, Jieyuan, and Huiyuan.

I am used to seeing Gusu, the most prosperous and romantic city in the world, and March in the capital is very boring.

Lin Ruhai waved her folding fan lightly and walked out of the inn.

"Master, wait for the servants!"

It's not easy to pay attention to pomp and ostentation when you are away from home, so the two schoolboys hurriedly packed silver taels and chased them out quickly.

The wealth of the capital is the wealth of the Tian family, but the common people are dressed in ordinary clothes.Lin Ruhai casually scanned the shops along the street, but didn't see anything new.

His bored expression made Shutong's heart skip a beat.

"Master, I heard that Ning Guogong returned to Beijing today, let's go to Ningrong Street to see the excitement?"

The name Ningrong Street was chosen because of the two Dukes of the Jia family.The long house, Ningguo Mansion, and the second house, Rongguo Mansion, occupy more than half of this street, and it is the most prosperous area.

They went there late, and the street was already full of onlookers. At a glance, there were all kinds of headscarves and square hats, and the blackness was very spectacular.

The two bookboys spoke Wu Nong's soft language, half pleading and half forcing to clear a path, and put the uncle next to the big lion in Rongguo Mansion.

Yuemo stood there for a quarter of an hour, but Ning Guogong never saw that the corner gate of Rongguo Mansion was opened upside down.

Lin Ruhai stood with sore legs, leaning against the stone lion, gently waving the folding fan to blow away the stale air.

He is wearing a newly cut Confucian shirt with fine brocade, with cypress branches and lotus flowers embroidered by Suzhou embroiderers one by one, giving him a noble and elegant charm of literati.

When the wives bumped into such a handsome brother, they were taken aback immediately, and hurriedly turned to report to the master.

"Miss Si, there are many people outside, I'm afraid it's not good to go out now."

The young lady surrounded by a group of beautiful maidservants has bright eyes and bright teeth, and she is at the age of youth.However, she was born to be doted on by her parents, and she has the most uncompromising nature, so she even frowned.

"Jinzhi."

The man named Jin Zhi stood up from behind and tore the old woman away.

This woman's man is in charge of the second door, and she also takes care of the little girl's shopping, so she is considered a decent person in this mansion.

But Miss Si is the only prostitute in this mansion, the Duke and Madam love her so much, not to mention teaching the girl to tease her, even if the big ear photo is slapped on the face, she can't cry out that it hurts.

The mother-in-law stood aside, not daring to speak any more, the fourth young miss looked out of the door, and met a pair of smiling eyes.

Lin Ruhai was born with sharp eyes and ears. In the chaos and noise, he suddenly heard a female voice murmuring like a spring stream, and couldn't help but turned his head to look.

This woman's head is full of emeralds and emeralds, but she doesn't see any vulgarity.I only think that the emerald green is not lustrous enough to complement the romantic charm between her eyebrows; I also think that the beads are not bright enough to make her shine with a pair of apricots to capture the peerless elegance.

"who are you?"

The young lady's eyes were full of sparkles, and Lin Ruhai's heart was swaying, and she couldn't help saying: "Xiaosheng Gusu Linhai, his name is like the sea."

There are more than [-]% more beauties in the south of the Yangtze River than those in the capital city, all of them are soft and delicate, well-read poetry and books.

Suzhou is not like Beijing, and the rules are not as big.During festive seasons or spring picnics, the ladies of each family can always go out for a walk.Talking about poetry and painting with men from various families outside is not considered a violation of women's morality.

If someone's family's daughters surpass all the men, it is the woman in the city who is vying to marry.

Lin Ruhai has such a cousin, who is his mother's favorite daughter-in-law.

But at this moment, he only took one look at this elegant woman, and suddenly felt absurd but sincere emotion in his heart:

——Could it be that the marriage is destined, and that person is her?

"Boom-"

The sound of the gongs and drums to clear the way was not at the right time, and the appearance of Ning Guogong made the street full of people's voices.The young lady opened and closed her lips a few times, Lin Ruhai stretched out her ears, but she couldn't hear anything clearly.

The beautiful maidservant closed the door, and Lin Ruhai felt melancholy, rubbing the cold and hard stone lion in a daze.

The book boy stepped on his feet and watched the excitement for a long while, but when he turned around and saw the old man looking sleepy, he thought it was uncomfortable being squeezed.

"Master, Duke Ning has gone in, shall we go back?"

If he gets sick again and delays the imperial examination to win the first prize, he will definitely have a meal when he returns to Gusu.

Lin Ruhai raised his face and stared at the plaque of "Decree to Rongguo Mansion" for a while, before saying, "Go back."

It's useless to think too much if you haven't made an inch of merit.

Soon at the end of March, a letter from Gusu arrived.Lin Ruhai cut open the envelope, seeing that it was written by his mother, he couldn't help but read it solemnly.

Everything is fine at home, and a happy event happened.

The people in his room are pregnant, and the mother has made the decision to lift up the aunt.

Before the old woman came in, she had a concubine and a concubine, which violated the etiquette of poetry and etiquette.

But since the father left, the mother has lost her temper, and her heart of begging for grandchildren has gone crazy.

But any woman with a flat head and a straight face, seeing that she is blessed and good at giving birth, she wants to get into the mansion and stuff it into his room.He is no longer the mother's beloved son, but a tool to continue the incense.

Lin Ruhai closed the letter, thinking of the young lady in the Rongguo Mansion, she felt a chill in her heart.

It was hot at night, and the schoolboys slept soundly and didn't notice it, so he didn't say anything, and let it burn away.

After going through the night like this, I couldn't get up the next day.The two bookboys cried bitterly for a while, and then hurriedly asked for medical medicine for him.

I was ill on and off for three days, and I never recovered.Seeing that the imperial examination was about to take place tomorrow, the servants watched the uncle get up with trepidation, and practiced wild cursive for half a day.

The two book boys looked at each other, a little puzzled.

Since the old man left, the old man never went out for banquets and wanderings, and those friends who played for a while were also far away.This cursive script, which is the best in the south of the Yangtze River, has been replaced with the most disdainful pavilion style in the past.

Since he started to pay attention to the economic career, the former uncle has changed his temperament, and he has never done anything out of the ordinary.

This disease is really strange.

"Prepare water, I want to take a bath."

The pen was casually thrown into the book basket, and the ink stains were smudged across a large area. The book boy didn't dare to say anything, and hurriedly went downstairs to fetch water.

The uncle went in to take a bath by himself, and the two gathered together beside the desk to tidy up, picked up the crumpled papers and spread them out, and saw Xin Jiaxuan's words and sentences written on each paper:

After 33 days, Lihentian is the highest; [-] is sick, how can I suffer from lovesickness?

"Is this... Miss Cousin?"

"I bother!"

The uncle has ever thought of a man and a woman for Miss Biao.

Just after the three watch drums were handed in at night, Lin Ruhai opened his eyes, put on his own clothes, and put on the student's square scarf, then went to wake up the two schoolboys, fetched water to wash their mouths and faces.

"It's windy at night, why don't you ride a horse?"

Lin Ruhai stepped on the stirrup, turned over and sat on it, "It's okay."

The inner layer of the scarlet cloak was secretly embroidered with toads and sweet-scented osmanthus flowers, which turned out when the wind blew, causing people in the company to make fun of it.

In fact, such good wishes, there are a few of them in each of them.

When passing by Ningrong Street, there were two tall maidservants standing at the street corner, their faces could not be seen clearly under the light gauze, and their backgrounds could not be discerned because of their plain clothes.

"Master Lin Ruhai, Gusu, please hold on for a while!"

This crisp call is just like a drama of gifted scholars and beautiful ladies.Everyone laughed for a while, pushed Lin Ruhai lightly, and beat the horse to the gate of the palace first.

Lin Ruhai got off the horse, took the reins and walked slowly with the two servant girls, and saw a Babaoxiang chariot parked around the corner.

The woman sitting in the curtain is the one who taught him to toss and turn day and night.

"It's late at night and the dew is heavy. Has Miss ever added a thick coat?"

"Mr. Lao Lang remembers. Today's palace exam, my concubine wishes you all your wishes."

Lin Ruhai was startled, looking at the woman behind the curtains in the night mist, feeling sad.

"Successful or not, Xiaosheng will go back to Gusu..."

"I often hear people say: 'There is heaven above, and Suzhou and Hangzhou below', my concubine has longed for it for a long time..."

The words of entrusting her life were very straightforward, the cold moon was hanging low in the sky, and the evening wind made her face hot.Who would have thought that the beloved whom she had already identified in her heart, would make her feel as if she had fallen into an ice cave with one sentence.

"I'm a young man with filthy eyebrows, so I can't swim with the young lady." Lin Ruhai paused, grinning his lips and said, "My wife has a pen and ink in her heart. If the young lady doesn't give up, when I come to Suzhou in the future, she will take the young lady to see around."

The white horse galloped away, but disappeared after a short breath.

The Rongguo Mansion was very quiet, except for Shang Ye's servants, the whole mansion was sleeping soundly.

Only the Rongxi Hall is still burning with candles.

Amber came in quietly and whispered, "The girl is back."

"Has it been knocked everywhere?"

Mrs. Duke's sharp eyes shot like lightning, and Hu Po trembled, and replied: "I have already ordered, and there will be no incident tonight, and everything will be as usual."

Mrs. Shi pressed her eyebrows, held Yuanyang's hand, and walked to the daughter's courtyard.

In the Yunyu Pavilion, the maids knelt on the ground, Mrs. Shi was astonished, and quickly walked to the inner room.

"Min'er?"

Her daughter's face was pale, and she was crying on the table, and the spittoon beside her smelled bloody.

Yuanyang picked up the handkerchief that fell on the ground, and saw that there was a mass of blood on it, obviously he had coughed up blood.

Mrs. Shi swayed her feet, took her daughter into her arms, and immediately burst into tears.

She has two sons and one daughter in her life, and the most cherished daughter is Jia Min.

When her daughter reached the age of first love, she knew that the night party was not in accordance with the rules, so she pretended to be deaf and dumb and let her go for fear of hurting her daughter.

The maids followed, and the daughter she brought up would certainly not do such shameless things.

She has already found out the identity of the scholar, and sent someone to Gusu, as long as the house is clean, when the Duke returns, she will fulfill her daughter's wish.

After becoming a serious couple, the outrageous incident tonight is just a little bit of tenderness between the young couple.

She obviously had plans for her daughter, but why did she see her daughter vomit blood sadly?

Mrs. Shi couldn't care less about arousing suspicion, she immediately took Rong Guogong's post and ordered someone to call for the imperial physician immediately.

Jia Min was lying on the couch in a daze, the imperial doctor took a look through the gorgeous and delicate screen, felt the pulse on the wrist covered with silk handkerchief, and asked the maid who was close to her body what symptoms she had. in conclusion.

"Your mansion's daughter was too sad and hurt her heart and lungs, so she coughed up blood, and she also suffered from trance symptoms..."

Mrs. Shi even shed tears, coughing up blood when young is not a sign of longevity.

Ning and Rong are two justices, how can the young lady in the palace have deep thoughts and sorrows?The imperial doctor was confused, but he didn't dare to ask more questions.

The three young ladies and the two sons all came, Mrs. Shi was afraid of revealing her whereabouts, so she sent the concubines away, and asked the eldest son, Jia She, to send the imperial physician out, leaving the second son alone to talk.

"Zheng'er, take someone to wait at the gate of the palace. If the imperial examination is over, watch out for the person who comes out, and take that guy from Gusu called Lin Hai captive!"

Jia Zheng's heart skipped a beat, and he lost his voice and said, "Mother, this is against the law! If the censor finds out, he will definitely impeach father."

Jia Amnesty sent people in, heard Lin Hai's name, and thought about his sister's illness, he immediately understood.

"Mother, let the child go!"

He is the son of Rong Guogong, and he is also the prince's companion. He just kidnapped someone, and he didn't hurt his life. Even if he was impeached, there would be no major mistakes.

Mrs. Shi hesitated for a moment, then nodded and let him go.

Jia Amnesty is the successor of this mansion, he loves his siblings, even if his reputation is hurt a little, it's not a big deal.

Jia Amnesty ordered three or four soldiers to go to the gate of the palace, and then sent someone to the East Mansion to report a letter to Jia Jing.

If something really happened, His Highness the Crown Prince would come down to save the place, and according to His Majesty's love for His Highness, the matter would be easily uncovered.

A student from a poor family would go to Beijing alone, but a family with a little wealth would bring a few servants with them.

Jia Amnesty looked carefully among the servants, saw two companions wearing Song brocade, turned around and asked someone to get close.

As soon as the two bookboys opened their mouths, they were full of Wu Nong's soft words, and after careful inquiry, they were not the servants of the Lin family in Gusu.

Lin Hai, this bastard, somehow provoked his sister!

Jia Amnesty was angry, so he first detained the two servants for interrogation.

The soldiers he brought were originally the confidantes of Rong Guogong, but they were injured and retired on the battlefield, so they came to work in their mansion.

These people used to be good at interrogating spies, and all the methods they used were appalling.The two little children were detained at the foot of the imperial city, they were already panicked, but when they saw the scars on those people's heads and faces, they immediately uttered all their words.

"Miss Biao?" Jia Amnesty narrowed his eyes, "Have you ever been hired?"

"No, no! That's what our wife meant. It's just that the second son of the governor's family in Zhejiang proposed to marry me. My uncle's family was hesitant, so we didn't make a decision."

The title of the Lin family was exhausted in the old man's generation. Now the old man only has fame, except for the wealth accumulated by his ancestors for several generations. Compared with the son of the governor's family, he is inferior.

Jia She let out a snort, and asked again: "The room is still clean, did you sleep in flowers and sleep in willows outside?"

"This……"

The soldier raised his big eyes with copper bells, and the book boy hurriedly said: "There is a aunt in the family, about six or seven girls in the house, aunt, aunt is pregnant..."

Jia She frowned, and ordered people to wait at the gate of the palace, and go back to the mansion first by riding the horse.

Mrs. Shi was giving medicine to her daughter, when she saw him coming at this time, she asked what was the matter.

Jia Amnesty looked at his sister's sallow face, hesitated for a moment, and said all that.

Jia Min coughed, and smiled softly under the concerned eyes of her mother and brother.

"Since that's the case, forget it."

When the royal horse was parading through the streets, Jia She stood at the gate of the mansion and looked coldly at the handsome young man on the big horse, thinking of the little sister who forced her face to smile all day long, and silently thought about it.

At the end of May, Duke Rong returned to Beijing from a tour of border areas. As soon as he was restored to the imperial order, he immediately went to the backyard to see Yao Nu.

He dragged Jia Min Hao to read it again, "It has reduced a lot."

Jia Min smiled and said, "It's more slender and looks better."

Rong Guogong raised his beard, "You are just Zhong Wuyan, and you don't have to worry about not having a handsome young man to come to marry you."

They are nobles from the army, but Jia Min is not a brave woman like Zhong Wuyan, but also has a beauty that Zhong Wuyan doesn't have.

"Don't be bored in the room anymore, go horse racing with daddy."

She used to race horses with her father and brother in the suburbs of Beijing, but as she got older, the people in Beijing were fearful, and Jia Min didn't want her family to be talked about, so she gradually stopped going.

Who would have thought that by such a coincidence today, they would meet the chariots and horses of the Lin family in Gusu.

Jia Min exchanged a glance with the young man on the horse through the veiled hat, then lowered his head and tugged on his father's sleeve.

"Daddy, let's go back."

Rong Guogong narrowed his eyes and took a look at the little fair face, not wanting to embarrass his daughter, so he immediately rode back to the city.

Mrs. Lin lifted the curtain and watched for a while, seeing that the group had gone far, she smiled and said: "I often hear that there are good rules in Beijing, but I see that girl in riding clothes looks similar to our Gusu girls. "

Lin Ruhai paused, and replied: "That's the daughter of Duke Rong's mansion, her family came from the army, so she's more relaxed."

Mrs. Lin was slightly surprised, "Looking at Qiyun, I thought she was a master of poetry and books. Who would have thought that she was born in Bing Luzi."

Shili's family has always looked down on martial arts, Lin Ruhai couldn't help but said after hearing her mother's scornful name: "Her ancestors were all heroic generals who defended their home and country..."

Mrs. Lin recognized the smell and asked him: "Do you have any relationship with them?"

Suspicion arose in her heart, seeing that her son should not respond, she pressed her to question him even more.

"Chun Niang didn't save the baby, so you said you were discouraged, not to mention that everyone in the room was gone, and you didn't even have sex!"

She glared wide-eyed and shouted: "Are you infected with Longyang's addiction, or did you show mercy somewhere, even ignoring the incense of your ancestors!"

Lin Ruhai took a deep breath, "Mother, your surname is not Lin."

For the sake of these few generations of single-handed heirs, the men and women of the Lin family gradually became demons.

Mrs. Lin was stunned, "What did you just say?"

She has been carefully raised for more than ten years, and Tan Huaer, who knows the book and manners, actually said such stupid things?

Lin Ruhai opened her mouth to repeat it, but Mrs. Lin stretched out her hand, "Stop talking, I'll write to your uncle right now, and finish your marriage with Jingshu as soon as possible."

The letter went to Gusu, and it took two months to reply.The niece who has always been regarded as a daughter-in-law has married into the governor's house in Zhejiang.

Madam Lin let go of her hand, and the letter fell to the ground.She thought of her son who was hiding in the Hanlin Academy and refused to go home, and she was at a loss for a while.

She wiped the memorial tablet in the ancestral hall for three days, but no water or rice came in, and none of the servants would listen to their cries and beggings, and finally passed out from exhaustion.

Lin Ruhai stood in front of the sick bed, feeling numb in his heart.

Mrs. Lin was in a daze, and muttered: "Where can I find a wife for you in the future, our family's incense is broken at your place..."

Just because the family lost the title, the second son of a mere governor, the niece she had watched and grown up abandoned her.

Ruhai is already a Tanhualang!

Rong Guogong inquired about the Lin family's news, first praised Jia Amnesty, and did not pursue the matter of him fraudulently using his seal to write a letter to the governor of Zhejiang.

That childhood sweetheart's cousin is married to someone else's wife, so you can't still worry about it, right?

The Hanlin Academy is full of sour Confucian scholars who watch people order dishes, and they have the stink of ignorance of literati.His good son-in-law should also have tasted the warmth and coldness of human feelings, and learned the truth of leaning against a big tree to enjoy the shade...

The more Duke Rong thought about it, the happier he became, he clapped his hands and said, "Min'er, Daddy will find you a man of your dreams!"

Mrs. Shi gave him a sidelong look, "You finish the matter before you talk big, so as not to upset my Min'er."

Rong Guogong blew his beard, "Our daughter is good enough to be a princess, but is it okay to mix with him? I'm afraid she was deceived by cow dung!"

Mrs. Shi lowered her voice and asked him: "That concubine of the Lin family had a miscarriage, didn't it come from our family?"

If the Lin family found out, they would definitely be angry.According to Min'er's arrogance, she might not be happy either.

Rong Guogong waved his hand, "Who cares about the little housewife's affairs!"

As soon as he thought about Jia Amnesty's letter, he became suspicious of him again, so he ordered people to question him.

Jia Amnesty still couldn't do such a secret thing, so he frowned and said, "You still want to marry my younger sister into his family?"

"I'm not dead yet." Duke Rong snorted, "Then it's not your turn to ask."

It's not good to come forward in person about this matter, it seems too rushed to post, Rong Guogong pondered for two days, and slipped Dongfu Jia Jingti to the Imperial Academy.

Jia Jing was born in a serious imperial examination. Apart from his status as the son of Ning Guogong, he also has other achievements.

Mrs. Lin's illness was cured, so Lin Ruhai canceled her vacation and went back to the Imperial Academy. When she heard that someone was looking for him, she closed the book and went to see her.

Jia Jing exchanged a few words with him first, but admired his appearance and talent very much, and felt that he was a good match with his cousin, so he implicitly revealed his meaning.

Lin Ruhai was stunned for a long time, and when he returned home, his feet were trembling.

Mrs. Lin was more than half discouraged. When she heard that the daughter of the Duke's Mansion was willing to marry, she was skeptical at first: "I'm afraid there is something wrong with this young lady?"

She sent people outside to inquire for a few days, and when she heard about the four girls in the mansion, she said critically: "Although our family does not have a title, it is also a scholarly family for generations, so we must not come back with a concubine daughter."

It was only then that Lin Ruhai suddenly remembered that he still didn't know where the young lady was ranked.

Rong Guogong lost his temper after waiting for several days when the Iceman came to his door.

When Jia Min heard the movement, she went to look in her father's study, and was flustered when her parents kept scolding "the Lin family's bastard".

When the couple saw their daughter coming in, they hurriedly stopped talking.

"But father, you made things difficult for Lin..."

Tears welled up in the daughter's eyes, seeing that Duke Rong was angry and hadn't figured out a way to rectify it. Suddenly, someone reported: "Master Lin Hai, the editor of the Imperial Academy, asks to see the Duke."

Duke Rong waved his sleeve: "No see!"

Jia Min's heart was beating wildly, and she looked at Rong Guogong with tears in her eyes: "Daddy..."

Lin Ruhai waited for a long time, and finally entered Rongxi Hall.

Duke Rong's majesty is unstoppable, but Mrs. Rong is very kind.He answered his wife's questions earnestly, straightened his clothes, and stated his purpose in a deep voice.

At this time, Lin Ruhai was not as good as a weak crown, he was just a minor official of the Imperial Academy, and he did not have the mental skills acquired later in the ups and downs of the officialdom, let alone a grand master of the dynasty.

If the Jia family hadn't revealed their intentions first, he might have been timid as soon as he entered the mansion.Lin Ruhai smiled wryly in his heart, thinking of that young lady, he felt his whole body filled with courage.

"Since you are sincerely proposing, let's go through the six rituals and discuss the date of marriage."

Rong Guogong looked at him critically, and said: "Min'er has three older sisters who have never married. You can't let Yaomei marry first. You have to wait for a year or two."

Lin Ruhai was apprehensive, fearing that the young lady was not the fourth young lady, so he hesitated and said: "The official is abrupt, can you...can you please come out and see the young lady?"

Mrs. Shi hesitated, and Jia Min behind the screen couldn't sit still, and immediately asked him, "You still want to pick and choose!"

After Lin Ruhai heard that, he lowered his eyebrows and smiled softly, "May I ask how long Miss's house is?"

The mellow and moving laughter made Jia Min's earlobe warm, "Among the sisters, go... go four."

Mrs. Lin was very dissatisfied when she saw her son going to ask for a marriage, but the family status of the Duke's Mansion was inconvenient for grievances, and there was no good candidate for a while, so she had to hold her nose and admit it.

Unexpectedly, when the name was asked, the Jia family married the fourth young lady who was a descendant.

Duke Rong married his three daughters in a hurry, and Mrs. Shi has been saving dowry since she gave birth to Jia Min. The wedding date is fixed, and the couple just talk and have fun with their daughters every day, and don't ask anyone else.

Grandma Xi helped her mother-in-law run the house, so she counted her sister's dowry with her younger brother and sister Wang, and made a triplicate copy of the book.

Mrs. Wang was illiterate, but she was very good at abacus calculations. The grandma was reading and copying, and she set the abacus at the side, and it took two days to finish the calculation.

"Fourth sister's dowry is really rich, it compares with our sister-in-law's."

Grandma laughed and said: "The mistresses of the Lin family have extraordinary backgrounds. If it wasn't for the mother who had saved for sister Min for many years, she would have shown her timidity."

Wang frowned, "I don't even have a title, and I only rely on a few books to dress and eat? After all, the family status is not good enough."

Grandma herself was from a Shili family, and she knew her family background well, so the Lin family might be much stronger than her own.The Wang family was brought up differently, and the eldest grandmother didn't care about her, she just laughed it off.

When these words reached Jia Min's ears, he became very angry.

The girl was not happy, and the maids also lost their good looks. Mrs. Wang got cold faces from her sister-in-law a few times, and gradually stopped going.

Jia Zheng listened to her complaints several times, and only said: "You have never read poetry and books, and you have slighted such a noble family as your sister-in-law. Sister Min should be angry."

He likes those elegant things with red sleeves most, and Wang's heart is filled with jealousy, so he turns around and kicks out all the maids who can read and write in the study.

The maids were all rewarded by Mrs. Shi, she didn't care about her son's room, she didn't think about asking until her daughter got married, but since Wang was pregnant, she didn't pursue it anymore.

When Jia Min arrived at Lin's house, he and Lin Ruhai knew each other well, and the husband and wife were very harmonious.

Mrs. Lin saw that she was proficient in poetry and books, so she stopped talking about "Bing Luzi".It's just that he didn't see anyone around his son for half a year, and Jia Min didn't hear any good news, so his dissatisfaction gradually surfaced again.

Lin Ruhai had just returned home from the Hanlin Academy, and when he saw a few unfamiliar women in the room, disgust flashed across his eyes.

Probably no man can tolerate this kind of sex without dignity, especially if he already has a wife he loves.

Jia Min has already cried a lot, but he still managed to pretend to be magnanimous, "This is a gift from my mother. The house has been cleaned. From now on..."

"Coincidentally, a few bookboys and long-term attendants around me have not yet married, so I will give them a favor."

Jia Min's eyes lit up.

At night, the husband and wife whispered, Lin Ruhai said: "My family's incense depends on God's will, we only live our own lives, don't think too much."

He was tired of seeing his father's crazy look of begging for a son, and he had seen his mother cry late at night about taking a concubine, and gradually take the initiative to take a concubine for her husband.

"When I was 12 years old, in the winter, there was a naked woman in the bed."

His father was still alive at that time, and the woman was a "gift" they carefully selected for him.

The 12-year-old boy ran barefoot in the snow. He didn't know where to go, but he must never stay in that home again.

But his father died suddenly.

His mother asked him to swear by the tablets of the Lin family's ancestors that he would never let the Lin family die.

He sent it.

"After my father's filial piety, there are gradually more people in my room..."

Jia Min gently covered his mouth, "I get it, don't say any more."

She didn't want him to think about these things again.

Her father and uncle both had concubines, as did her brothers.Some of those people were the daughters of innocent families, some were captured on the battlefield, some were dowries of regular wives, and some were simply maids from the mansion.

Last year, elder brother Xie fell in love with a young man, and his sister-in-law cried once, and his mother told him to forget it.

Because the sister-in-law was born in a noble family, she couldn't serve a husband with such a person, which spoiled her.

Mother didn't like those people, but she didn't dislike them too much. Her father liked them after all.

Her mother told her that it is impossible for a family like theirs to have no concubines.The concubine's room is a joke for men, it's no big deal.

But Lin Ruhai was different, those concubines were the concubines of the Lin family, not his.

He can't even choose.

What is the difference between this and a woman who is forced to fall into prostitution?

In particular, her husband is such a proud person in essence, with an unrestrained, arrogant and arrogant temperament.

From then on, she served her mother-in-law more diligently and obeyed everything except the concubine.Sometimes when her mother-in-law gets too tight, she will live in Rongguo Mansion for two days, pretending to sue her father and brother.

The Jia family has two families, even if Jia Min first lost his wife's virtue and committed seven crimes, Mrs. Lin dared not tear her face for Lin Ruhai's official career.

She would rather be a jealous woman.

Lin Ruhai was grateful in his heart, and it was originally very affectionate, but it gradually turned into a deep-seated attachment.

Until Mrs. Lin passed away, there was still no trace of the incense she was thinking about. The two aunts who forced her were guarded against by the jealous woman, and the middle-aged lady was still a virgin.

I hate that she still lures them with a lot of money every year, asking them if they would like to leave the house and marry another.

When the sick bed was submerged, Mrs. Lin saw her son crying and fell into the arms of the jealous woman, and she vaguely remembered his childhood.

In the past, he was also attached to himself like this, but gradually changed.

When did it change?

Mrs. Lin thought of the messy footprints on the snow that winter.Her son is like a crazy lone wolf, and there is no nostalgia for family affection in those eyes.

"I……"
