[Red Mansion] Jia Lian, son of a family

Chapter 71

On the second day of Jia Lian's arrival in Yangzhou, he sent invitations to Xunyan Yushi's Mansion, both public and private.After Yugong, Lin Ruhai was his immediate boss, and Yu privately, Lin Ruhai and his wife were his uncles and aunts.

After cleaning up at home for another two days, Jia Lian and his wife went to Lin's mansion early in the morning.Lin Ruhai received Jia Lian in the outer study, while Mei Xiruo visited Jia Min in the inner house.Jia Min's eldest daughter, Lin Xi, is married to the Ninth Prince, and Mei Xiruo is the cousin of the Seventh Prince, and now she is her nephew and daughter-in-law.

Lin Daiyu has no impression of Jia Lian who has been away from Yangzhou for nearly two years, but she does know this cousin.From time to time, Jia Lian sent people to send special products and stubborn weapons from the capital, and she gained a lot of goodwill from her.So when she saw Mei Xiruo who was said to be her cousin, she first stared curiously for a long time.Not long after that, she leaned against Mei Xiruo's arms, softly calling her sister-in-law to act like a spoiled child.

"Sister Zhao is so cute." Mei Xiruo looked at Lin Daiyu who was sitting in her arms playing with the white jade nine series with gentle eyes.

She is the only girl in her generation of the Mei family, and there is no girl in the next generation.Now this soft and intelligent Lin Daiyu is so in love with her, thinking that she and Jia Lian will have such a beautiful and intelligent child in the future, she can't help but her ears turn red.

Mei Xiruo's eyes can't be fake, and she is very proud that her child is cute and loves Jia Min.She was relatively close to Jia Lian, so the joke came out naturally: "You and Lian'er are very good, and when you have a child in the future, you will be cuter than Zhao'er. Don't look at her cute appearance now, no When you are obedient, it can make people have a headache, only her father can cure her!"

"Aunt..." Mei Xiruo murmured, her cheeks flushed.Before coming here, Jia Lian greeted her and said that her aunt had a lively personality in front of people close to her, so she shouldn't care too much about what she said.But Jia Min uttered such words, and it was not right for her to say yes, and it was impolite to say no.

"Okay, okay, I know that your new daughter-in-law is shy." Jia Min loved Mei Xiruo more and more.

She has three nephews in total, Jia Baoyu is only half a year older than Lin Daiyu, not to mention that she is still a child, Jia Zhu's daughter-in-law, Wang Xifeng, has also heard rumors about her in Yangzhou.She was a well-known Feng Lazi, and she was no stranger to the upbringing of the Wang family, as could be seen from her second sister-in-law, so she was really displeased with this niece and daughter-in-law whom she had never met.

Mei Xiruo is different, like her sister-in-law who was very close before she got married, she is a daughter of a scholarly family, and she treats people very well.With a beautiful and gentle appearance, she is a match made in heaven with her nephew Jia Lian, who can be called a dragon and a phoenix.

As for Jia Lian's promise that Mei Xiruo could only have one person, Jia Min didn't take it to heart.After being married to Lin Ruhai for many years, she has also gained some understanding of these scholarly families. The scholarly families with rich backgrounds attach great importance to the inheritance of their offspring, but they also value the origin of their offspring.

The concept of birth from a concubine and birth from a concubine are different concepts. Regardless of whether the concubine is a good concubine or a lowly concubine, the blood of a concubine's son is not very pure in the eyes of literati.Generally speaking, scholarly aristocratic families have the rule that men who are over [-] or [-] years old can only take concubines when they have nothing to earn.Even if there is a concubine to give birth to a son, the one who inherits the clan will still be adopted from another house, and the adopted son must also be a descendant.

Jia Min was surprised by such a rule when he first learned about it, but as time passed, he discovered such benefits.Compared with military generals, the nobles generally have a longer inheritance.Without wives and concubines intrigues, without concubines and concubines doing everything for their own interests and future, children born of one mother are closer and more able to work together.

Of course, such a premise is that these children do not have an eccentric mother.

Thinking of his mother, Jia Shishi, who was paralyzed on the bed again in the second brother's house, Jia Min couldn't help but let out a long sigh.She has been brought up by Jia Shishi since she was a child, and she knows some of Jia Shishi's ideas, but knowing does not mean agreeing.

If Jia Shishi hadn't done too much back then, she wouldn't have ended up like this now.Since Jia Shishi's incident happened, she has always learned from it.Her father, Jia Daishan, even a military general, couldn't bear Jia Shi's like this, let alone Lin Ruhai, a family of nobles who inherited the scholarly tradition.

After that, she abided by the rules and never crossed the line at all. Not only did she win Lin Ruhai's love, but she also became the well-deserved wife of the Lin family.After that, Lin Ruhai even handed over all the books of the Lin family to her, even including the land and property that she didn't even know existed before and only controlled by the owners of the Lin family.

If Jia Shishi, like Jia Min, didn't pay too much attention to those rights, didn't think of deliberately suppressing the eldest son who was not close to her, and didn't embezzle the husband's family property left to her child, maybe she could be as harmonious as her daughter.It's just that she is a daughter of meritorious service after all, and she attaches great importance to these things.When she met Jia Lian and Jia She, the reborn father and son, she failed to hide Jia Daishan's actions, and finally reached this point.

As for the affairs of the Jia family, Jia Min, as a married woman, could not and could not participate. She knew that it was because Zhang told her something tactfully under Jia Amnesty's hint.Jia Amnesty's only thought was to hope that she would not get involved too much, after all, both she and Lin Ruhai had been closer to the second wife in the previous life.

The sudden melancholy in Jia Min's eyes did not escape Mei Xiruo's eyes, and thinking of the common sense that Jia Lian and Mrs. Zhang did for her after marrying into Jia's family, she probably knew what this aunt was thinking of.Her new niece and daughter-in-law can make Jia Min think of her nephew, so it is normal to think of the second wife and Jia Shishi who is supported by the second wife.

"Auntie, has sister Zhao started to learn?" Mei Xiruo lovingly squeezed Lin Daiyu's chubby hands with several small dimples, "I heard from the second master that sister Zhao's brothers and sisters are all three years old or younger. When it arrives, it will be enlightened."

Jia Min shook his head: "Jiangnan is busy now, how can the master have time to enlighten Zhao'er, but he just learns the Three-Character Classic from me. I usually have to do housework, how can I have so much time?" .Master was thinking of hiring a female husband for her, but it's not so suitable for a while."

Mei Xiruo was about to say something, when suddenly a loud bang like a bell sounded in her ear.

"Benefactor, please give me some fasting!"

Reflexively raising her hand to cover Lin Daiyu's ears, Mei Xiruo looked at Jia Min in shock.Seeing that her expression changed a few times, she called the nanny beside her to find out what happened.

After a long while, the nanny came in with a bad complexion and whispered something in Jia Min's ear, and her complexion changed accordingly.Mei Xiruo didn't know what happened, but the voice just now let her know that the matter was not simple.Ruyi who happened to be next to her walked in and said that the second master was going home and was waiting for her outside.

What Jia Min just found out made her less interested in entertaining Jia Lian and his wife, so she cheered up and sent Mei Xiruo out of the inner house by herself.

It wasn't until they got into the carriage, some distance away from the Lin residence, that Mei Xiruo asked Jia Lian, "Second Lord, what happened just now?"

Hearing this, Jia Lian frowned, and then said calmly: "Just now a monk told my uncle that he wanted to turn his little cousin into a monk, but my uncle didn't want to, so the monk said, 'Since I don't want her, I'm afraid she won't recover from her illness for the rest of her life. If you want to have a good time, unless you are not allowed to cry from now on; except for your parents, everyone who has relatives and friends with other surnames will not be seen, so that you can live in peace for this life.'”

Mei Xiruo's eyes widened in surprise: "What's wrong with Miss Zhao? When I saw her today, I only thought she was plump and cute. I didn't see anything wrong with her."

Jia Lian smiled: "That's why my uncle said they are just liars. When we have children in the future, we have to be careful. The kidnappers here in the south of the Yangtze River are much more powerful than those in the capital city, and they can still come up with such a trick." Here's a solution."

Mei Xiruo blushed and nodded, seeing that Jia Lian didn't want to continue this topic, she turned to the meeting gift Jia Min gave her today.Jia Lian responded to her from time to time, but she was still shocked by what happened before.

Not only Jia Min and Mei Xiruo who were in the inner house were alarmed by the voice that said they were going to have a meal, Jia Lian and Lin Ruhai who were in the study outside could hear it clearly.Lin Ruhai sent someone to invite the monk who stayed at the door to come in together, but who knew that what the two wanted to melt was not the fast, but Lin Daiyu, the second young lady of the Lin family.

At this time, Jia Lian suddenly remembered that Wang Xifeng had mentioned Lin Daiyu in her previous life, saying that she was always in poor health, so when she was three years old, a monk came to the door to melt her away.But in this life, although Lin Daiyu's body is weaker than ordinary people, she is not a sick child, so why did this monk appear?

Jia Lian just stood aside and listened to the conversation between Lin Ruhai and a monk, until finally the monk told Lin Ruhai what he had just said to Mei Xiruo, seemingly aggrieved and with some kind of malice.Then when the monk was about to leave together, he suddenly saw him, and then the two of them became incredulous. How could this be? It's all messed up..." or something.

Then the monk said to him, "Fate is disordered, it must be caused by you!" He took out a thing that looked like a talisman from his arms and threw it at him. At that time, he wanted to move but couldn't move. The bright object was about to fall on his head, but something truly jaw-dropping happened!

Until today, Jia Lian didn't know that the system that gave him countless help could take shape without him!And it not only came out of form, but also took in the monks who looked like they had great supernatural powers!Yes, it is accepted.

Jia Lian and Lin Ruhai watched helplessly as the man in Tsing Yi who appeared out of nowhere stretched out his hand to block the talisman, then moved his fingers a few times, a black crack appeared in the air like that, and then they were sucked in one by one!

The son is silent and strange, and the scholars always say that they don't believe in these things, but they trust them in their hearts, or why the incense in those temples is particularly strong every time it comes to the season of scientific research.

But even Xin didn't see such an exaggeration with his own eyes!

Because of the system, Jia Lian's acceptance of this matter is much higher than that of Lin Ruhai, but this kind of development also prevents him from speaking to anyone, after all, it is closely related to him.Therefore, the two finally agreed that this matter would end like this, and no one could tell, including their wives.

After the monks disappeared together, the figures transformed by the system also disappeared.Lin Ruhai didn't know, but Jia Lian knew that the system had returned to his body, because he heard the plain voice of the system.

[Obtaining energy, the system upgrade starts, it is expected that the host will not be able to serve the host for three days, please prepare for the host. 】

This made Jia Lian have to think deeply about how this system exists.In the past, he thought that the system was a god, so he never doubted that the system followed him all the time.Now he had to think, which god would follow a mortal like this, even if he wanted to watch a play, there was no need to do it, right? !
