Soothe Daiyu and let her think clearly by herself, Yingchun came out of the inner room, and said to Zijuan who was guarding the door: "Let you girl rest for a while, and then help her to wash up, come out and talk to everyone." Speak."
Zicuckoo looked into the curtain with some worry.Just now she faintly heard her girl call out, and she didn't know how she was doing now.She wanted to go in and take a look, but the second girl's expression was too serious, she didn't look the same as when she was in the mansion, and she had the aura of Lian's second grandmother, which made her lose the courage to enter the house.
Yingchun looked at the girl in front of her suspiciously.Why did Sister Lin forget the snow geese she brought from the south?There is also that Wang Momo, who has moved out of the house for Mrs. Wang.
Forget it, wait for sister Lin to meet the two wives, and let her handle it herself.I can only remind him, but I can't make decisions for her.After looking at Zicuckoo again, Yingchun was supported by Siqi and returned to the main hall.
The sisters were still judging the paintings and calligraphy that Yingchun brought out, and even Li Wan was very interested.Yingchun has already admitted that she is not proficient in this, and she just watched everyone talk about their own merits, but she quietly thought in her heart, I don't know what will happen to these sisters when they ransack their homes. Ever had such a happy time?
What else could it be?Under the overturned nest there are eggs, and each of them is just the fate of returning to the original work.Even if he wanted to make a move, he didn't have the strength to do so, so he had to wait for the conviction to save one or the other.Thinking about it, tears fell quietly.
"Second Sister?" There was a call in her ear, and Yingchun took a look, only to find that it was Xichun holding a painting, standing in front of her worriedly.Wiping away tears quickly, Yingchun asked, "Does Fourth Sister think this painting is good?"
Xichun still looked at her worriedly: "What's wrong with the second sister?"
Looking around, everyone didn't pay much attention to him, Yingchun was a little funny, even if he was the master now, the sense of presence was still not high.Only this little cousin, like when she was in Rongguo Mansion, pays attention to her emotions: "It's nothing, it's just a sigh in my heart when I see the sisters get together again."
"There's nothing to sigh about." Xichun pursed her mouth: "On the surface, everyone looks happy together, but in my heart, it's because you don't want me to be outstanding, and I want to see you make a fool of yourself!"
With such a temper, Yingchun laughed sincerely: "You're talking nonsense again. You've grown up every year, so you can't keep your mouth shut like this."
Xichun sighed old-fashionedly: "Oh, I only said this in front of my sister. I don't care to say it to others. Second sister, this painting is really good, can you lend me a few days? When I copy it, I will send it back to my sister."
"What's it worth? My fourth sister likes it, so just take it. It's still in a box, and it's just collecting ashes in the warehouse." But he is also willing to let Xichun have this short-lived joy.
But Xichun shook her head and said: "This is Wu Daozi's painting, even if I can see it, I am already satisfied. It is too much to want to keep it for myself. Besides, my sister also knows that if this painting is true I’m afraid someone will tell Brother Baoyu before it’s dark. When he opens his mouth, how can it be mine? It makes me sad.”
That's right, in that mansion, no matter who has something good, Jia Baoyu will obediently offer it to him.Yingchun no longer persuaded her deeply, but only asked, "Why didn't Baoyu come today?" Don't you usually like to be with your sisters the most?
Over there, Baochai heard their sisters mentioning Baoyu, and she was already interested. At this time, she interjected: "It is said that the master has got a good topic, and asked him to do it with Huan'er and Lan'er. When we left, he was very anxious." Now, it’s not the right time to address the master’s title directly.”
This Miss Xue really knew Jia Baoyu's whereabouts in detail.Yingchun was about to say something when Xiuping came in to report: "Ma'am, the door says Mrs. Li and Mrs. Sun are coming to worship."
Yingchun pretended to be surprised: "Why is it today? Hurry up." He smiled and said to the sisters: "What a coincidence, it turned out that our master said he knew Mr. Li, or Mr. Sun. I didn't expect the two ladies to come today. .It’s neglecting the sisters.”
Li Wan said: "What's the matter with our own family, my brother-in-law has colleagues and family members to see you, it shows that you are not a bad person. It is better to welcome the guests as soon as possible." The face of Yingchun is still difficult, and Li Wan has already decided to let Xiuju take it. My sisters, avoid the garden together.
Here, Yingchun can't be neglected, and goes to the second gate to welcome the visitors.After the host and guest saluted each other, Yingchun let in and looked at him quietly.That Mrs. Li has a round face, a pair of almond eyes that show all their radiance, a high nose, and a slightly large mouth, which is slightly upturned when she is silent, and she seems to be very talkative.Mrs. Sun has a long face, with phoenix eyes and a nose augmentation. Her complexion is not as fair as Mrs. Li's, and her expression is also a little more serious than Mrs. Li's.
Please sit down, the host and guest chattered, Yingchun only said: "It is logical that I should go to visit the two ladies, but I am not up to date, so I work hard and the two ladies come down."
Mrs. Li pursed her lips and smiled: "This is a happy event for you, why don't you work or not. We also happen to be happy along with it."
Mrs. Sun only nodded at the side, and did not answer Mrs. Li's words.The tea has been served three times, and the three of them have nothing new to talk about.Mrs. Li looked at Yingchun and said: "I heard from my master that Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Lin's daughter are cousins?"
Yingchun nodded and said: "Exactly, my aunt married the Gusu Lin family."
Mrs. Sun also said at this time: "Looking at Mrs. Sun's demeanor, I think cousin Ling is also a good one."
Yingchun's heart sank slightly, this Mrs. Sun didn't seem to come to see someone, but to find something awkward.With Daiyu's sensitive temperament, how can she bear it?It's just that the matter has come to this point, and there will be no chance next time, so I can only smile: "It's a coincidence, today I just posted a post to invite the sisters from my natal family to get together. Sister Lin also came with the sisters."
Mrs. Li just smiled when she heard the words: "I don't know how many people envied Lin Tanhua's flair and Miss Jia Si's looks that day. I just don't know how much this Miss Lin got. If it's convenient, please help me." one sight."
Mrs. Sun didn't answer again, so Yingchun just followed Mrs. Li's words and said: "My cousin is weak and is resting at the back. I'll ask someone to come over and see the two ladies." Then he said to Siqi: "Go and invite your cousin girl."
Siqi responded and went to invite Daiyu.After a while, Tingting has come in gracefully.Yingchun introduced her: "Sister Lin, this is the wife of Mr. Li, the left servant of the Ministry of Households, and this is the wife of Mr. Sun, the right servant of the Ministry of Rites. The two adults are from the same family as Uncle Lin, and Mr. Sun belongs to Uncle Lin. My hometown. I heard that you were there, so I wanted to meet you. Logically, you should be called aunt."
Daiyu has already bowed gracefully and said goodbye.
The two ladies had already started looking at Daiyu as soon as she entered the room.I saw the young girl in front of me, with a thin figure, an oval face, slightly frowned eyebrows, and half-opened almond eyes. Although she was weak and shy, she was well-mannered.
The two looked at each other, nodded at the same time, and said in unison: "Good boy, get up quickly, and sit here with Auntie."
Yingchun got up with a smile, and said to Daiyu: "Just my sister will accompany the two wives for me, and I will also go and see what the sisters want to play." Many things still need to be faced by Daiyu alone.
The two wives felt that Yingchun's move was more or less popular, and gave her a high look - with such a transparent female family member taking care of the inner house, Mrs. Sun would not be too bad.When I go back, I can raise a word with my master.
Not to mention how the two wives, Li and Sun, chatted with Daiyu, but said that as soon as Yingchun arrived in the garden, everyone was a little surprised. Tanchun asked, "Can the two wives leave? So fast."
Yingchun shook her head: "Talk to those two wives, who would have thought that the two adults in their family are in the same class as Uncle Lin. Even my aunt, the two wives are familiar with each other. I heard that sister Lin is in my house, it must be I want to meet up. I don't want to listen to them talk about themselves, so I came to see the sisters."
When Baochai heard this, her heart suddenly jumped. It turned out that when Daiyu had no one to rely on, Jiamu still looked down on her. If she heard that Daiyu had such connections, wouldn't she have to hold on to Daiyu?
Taking a look at Yingchun, who has become the wife of the family, Baochai said: "Second sister is also confused. Those two wives rashly said that they are from the same department as Uncle Lin, how could second sister be faithful and let Sister Lin go See? If..."
Before she finished speaking, Xichun said impatiently: "I think Sister Bao is confused. When you come to someone's house as a guest, you actually despise the master. If there is no real evidence, how can Second Sister let Sister Lin see someone? Uncle Lin has already Been there for many years, and Sister Lin has nothing to conspire." After speaking, she gave Xue Baochai a meaningful look.
Yingchun gently pulled Xichun towards her, and nodded her head: "It's not big or small, I still haven't apologized to your elder sister Bao." But she didn't explain to Baochai why she believed those two wives.
Tanchun couldn't help asking: "Second sister, do you know which family the two ladies belong to?"
Yingchun smiled and replied: "One is from the family of the left servant of the Ministry of Households, and the other is from the family of the right servant of the Ministry of Rites."
Everyone who listened took a deep breath.No matter how they were raised in their boudoirs, they also knew that this servant was not comparable to Jia Zheng's fifth-rank Yuanwailang.If this is the case, it is naturally true to say that it was the same year as Uncle Lin's.When did the second brother-in-law know such a character?Except for Xichun, everyone looked at Yingchun inquiringly.
At this time, Yingchun was only worried about Daiyu talking to the two ladies, and had no intention of explaining to everyone.It was Baochai who said, "Even if we met at Second Sister's residence, we should go to pay our respects to the two ladies."
But Xichun said impatiently: "People didn't call us, so why bother to post it on your own." Turning around, she only brought the painting with her, and went to the flowers to bloom.
Li Wan saw that Baochai made Xichun's face turn red and white, so he could only smile and help her out: "The fourth girl never wants to socialize and meet people, even if someone asked her to see her when she was in the mansion, she would push her away." Woolen cloth."
But Baochai knew that if a decent guest came from the Rongguo mansion and wanted to meet the ladies in the mansion, Jia's mother would also ask Tanchun to accompany her to meet Lin Daiyu. Second sister?
But that was at the Rongguo Mansion, and he still wanted to see him, so wouldn't it make him look like he was eager for quick success?It is necessary to put on a generous face: "We have been sisters for many years, and I know the pride of the fourth girl."
Tanchun and the others also laughed it off, and no one mentioned going to see the two wives.Yingchun is here estimating the time, seeing Xiuju looking here from afar, she smiled at the few people: "I've been here for a long time and I've neglected the guests, my sister-in-law will take care of me."
Although Li Wan also envied her to be the master of the family at this time, she had already begun to communicate with such powerful people.But he knew that unless Jia Lan got married, he would not be able to live such a life, so he hurriedly urged her to take care of herself.
When Yingchun returned to the main hall, she saw that Daiyu had obviously cried, even the faces of the two ladies also had a look of sadness.The sympathy in the eyes of Mrs. Sun almost turned into substance.It can be seen that he is a man of temperament.
After apologizing to the two, and having Daiyu go down to wash and redress, Yingchun said to the two: "My cousin is sensitive and thoughtful by nature, and the two ladies laughed at her."
This time it was Mrs. Sun who spoke first: "It's rare to be a child with a pure mind. If I don't worry about you being annoyed, this kind of child is the first time I have met her, and I love her from the bottom of my heart. Seeing that she is weak, I wish she could be brought into my home." Go and recuperate her. Why is it that in your house, the diagnosis and treatment have been ineffective for several years, or do you just hire the same imperial physician for the child?"
Hearing her directly pointing out that the Rongguo Mansion didn't care about Daiyu, although it was true, and even though she felt happy hearing it, Yingchun had to say: "My natal family has a large population, even if the wife in charge has neglected for a while, it is also a family member. It's a common thing." As for why Daiyu was the only one left out, and how the two of them made up for it, she didn't have any explanation.
These two also went through the sister-in-law's affair, what else do you not understand?In his heart, he looked down on the wife in charge of the Rongguo Mansion even more.Talking about some gossip, Daiyu has come back dressed again, and thanked the two aunts again for their care.
Mrs. Li smiled and said: "When I saw you today, I felt like a match. I will invite you to stay at home for two days when I post tomorrow. It is because I don't have a daughter, so I wish I could keep you at home."
Over there, Mrs. Sun became anxious: "It's just that you are fast-talking and you have to take the lead in everything. This time I will take the lead in you. Good boy, I will go to my aunt's house tomorrow. I have a little girl at home. Daughter, you are only two years younger than you, and you only feel that you are unique all day long, so go and shame her."
Daiyu listened to the humorous words of the two of them, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "My uncle's self-educated younger sister must be beautiful, how can I compare with it?" Then she remembered that if her mother was there, she would be there too. So humble in front of others.But who can't hear the pampering in those words?The eye circles are a little red again.
If they saw such a woman who was about to cry at every turn, the two wives must despise pettiness.But just after hearing about Daiyu's life in Rongguo Mansion—no matter how much she tried to cover it up, she couldn't cover up the fact that she had been neglected—the two of them felt sorry for her, so they tried to comfort her.
So far, the two sat down for a while and said goodbye to Yingchun.Yingchun struggled to stay for dinner, so the two of them pushed it off because they still had something to do at home.
Yingchun and Daiyu personally sent them to the second gate, watched them get into the car, and then returned hand in hand.Daiyu bit her lips, and bowed deeply to Yingchun: "Thank you, Second Sister, for planning for me. Knowing that my father is not the only one thinking about me, even I... am willing."
With Daiyu's sensitivity, how could she not know that the two ladies came here today?Even if he really has a relationship with Sun Shaozu, he should have posted the post earlier to be polite.What's more, the two of them came hand in hand, and they named places to meet him, so it was obvious why they came.
The only one who can act like this in the Sun family is the second sister.
Yingchun likes her transparency, but also mourns her thoughtfulness, and said with a smile: "Miss Bao said something right, but you're just thinking too much about it. Look at everything for yourself, and just take care of your body."
Daiyu didn't say much when she heard the words, she just kept this feeling in her heart, thinking that she would really make a difference in the future, and it would not be too late to repay her second sister.
When they returned to their rooms, the sisters had already returned, and Xiuju decided to change the tea to a new one, and was being asked about the two wives.As soon as Yingchun came back, he was like a savior, surrounded by everyone around Yingchun and Daiyu, and went out to hide by himself.
Fortunately, Daiyu also knew that today's events had a lot to do with her, so she only thought that she didn't know Baochai's probing words, and she just listened to the two wives talking about her parents' old affairs, so she evaded it.
Baochai also knew that she was too impatient, but she just couldn't suppress the anger in her heart - she thought that Daiyu had no parental relationship, but unexpectedly, two elders came out, who were still of high authority. Yes, how can she not be startled?
Here, Daiyu is also happy and worried for a while, she is happy that her father still misses old friends, but she is also worried that she did not know how to deal with it just now, and she lost the face of the Lin family.
The two of them were originally top-notch among the sisters, and they were often the leaders when they got together on weekdays.Now they have lost their interest, and others can't get excited about it. It's just after lunch and a little rest before heading back home.
When you go back to the mansion, you will go to Jia Mu to report first, and then answer the questions of Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang in detail.Baochai casually said: "Sister Lin won the lottery more than us today."
Mother Jia looked at Daiyu puzzled, and saw that Daiyu's eyebrows were slightly frowned, she stood up and said to Mother Jia, "It's just that I happened to meet the two ladies who were visiting my second sister's house, they were my late father's." In the same year, the family members only talked together. It is also worthy of Sister Bao's talk."
Hearing that Lin Ruhai was from the same year and was still in Beijing, even Jia's mother pondered in her heart and asked, "I don't know which adult it is, how come you know your second sister?"
Daiyu had already figured out what to say: "It was said that one was in the Ministry of Household Affairs and the other was in the Ministry of Rites. I heard that there were still people who were thinking about their deceased father, and it was as if they were frying in their hearts. How can I remember clearly. It was after the two wives left that they finally got married. I heard from the second sister that the two adults met when the second brother-in-law was filling in office."
Ever since Daiyu came to Rongguo Mansion, especially after Lin Ruhai left, the Rongguo Mansion didn't allow her to keep her filial piety for a single day.At this time, when she mentioned that there are still people thinking about Lin Ruhai, even Jia Mu's face is a little hot after she has experienced many things in the world: "That's right, it's rare for the two ladies to think about it. You guys are tired after playing all day, just go back and rest." , and you don’t have to come here at night.” Everyone said goodbye to Jiamu’s return to the garden.
They were talking about Mrs. Li and Sun, but they didn't know that they were also talking about Rongguo Mansion.
"I have never seen such a family. The court ordered the lady of the official family and the granddaughter of the direct relative to come to the door, and they didn't even prepare a house. They invited them by writing several times." This is Mrs. Li's words to Master Li. rhetoric.
"I never thought that the family's rules are so loose. That Xiande concubine is also funny. She doesn't know how old her brother is, so she dares to make such an order. Bah, a concubine dares to say that her words are true." Will." This is Mrs. Sun yelling at Mr. Sun.
After hearing the reply from their wives, the two felt weighed in their hearts, and the more they felt that this matter could be done.Then I asked them what they thought of Daiyu.Mrs. Li is still more restrained: "He is a good boy who knows etiquette. I think Mr. Lin and Mrs. Lin taught him well when we were at home. It's just that he looks weaker."
Mrs. Sun has no scruples: "There is no one in the whole family who thinks that the child is always in poor health and should be seen by an imperial physician. It can be seen whether you care about the child or not."
When asked about Daiyu's marriage with her son, the two wives had the same opinion: "The child's body has been ruined by the medicine, and a good imperial doctor will take care of him for a few years, and he may not be able to take care of him. It's just a matter of thought." It seems that he is a sensitive person, if he only thinks about himself, his son will suffer the same."
Knowing that neither of them had much objection, Li and Sun both thought about it, and went to their study one by one, thinking about the book.During the period, the two met again, and decided to let people go to the old house of the Lin family in Beijing to see if there were any old servants of the Lin family who knew the situation. If they could contact the original housekeeper of the Lin family, it would be more effective.The other thing is to go to Yangzhou to collect evidence that Jia Lian sold the Lin family's property back then.Even if the papers are submitted in the future, they can't be together, but handed in the papers gradually, in case there are old people in Rongguo Mansion, they can hide the papers from them.
Speaking of which, the two of them were over-concerned. Even if the Rongguo Mansion still had some old stories, they were far away from it because of Yuanchun's entry into the palace, so how could they be willing to inform and report this letter for them?
During the period, Mrs. Sun was a trustworthy person. On the second day, she sent the decent housekeeper to come to the door, saying that the wife of the family hit it off with Miss Lin yesterday, and she wanted to take Miss Lin's house to stay for two days because of the old friend's affection.
Jia's mother heard that she was from the family of the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, and she was willing to have such a powerful family to go around, so that she could make some connections for Jia Zheng and get promoted.Since he ordered Zhou Quan to pack up Daiyu's things, and rewarded the visitor, he sent Daiyu out of the house.
Not to mention this incident, not only Mrs. Wang in Rongxi Hall accidentally hit the teacup, but even Jia She, who lives in the East Courtyard, was moved by the letter.His idea was simple: his uncle knew such a powerful person, and he spent a lot of money to get through the joints.If you have that money for others to spend, why don't you honor yourself, this old Taishan?
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, she scolded Mrs. Xing: "The second girl is from our eldest family, and you are also her aunt. Why didn't you care about her for such a big thing as her body? Didn't you care about her once tomorrow? Get some stuff and go check it out."
Mrs. Xing didn't understand what it meant, and she couldn't even count on Yingchun's face, so she asked, "Since the second girl left the door, we haven't visited her once, why did we go to visit her this time?"
When Jia She heard that she was not enlightened, he became even more angry: "It's because you are not close to the child on weekdays, so she doesn't know how to write the word filial piety! This time, I should teach her some rules and talk about it. How to be filial to your parents is the way to avoid making outsiders laugh in the future!"
Zicuckoo looked into the curtain with some worry.Just now she faintly heard her girl call out, and she didn't know how she was doing now.She wanted to go in and take a look, but the second girl's expression was too serious, she didn't look the same as when she was in the mansion, and she had the aura of Lian's second grandmother, which made her lose the courage to enter the house.

Yingchun got up with a smile, and said to Daiyu: "Just my sister will accompany the two wives for me, and I will also go and see what the sisters want to play." Many things still need to be faced by Daiyu alone.
The two wives felt that Yingchun's move was more or less popular, and gave her a high look - with such a transparent female family member taking care of the inner house, Mrs. Sun would not be too bad.When I go back, I can raise a word with my master.
Not to mention how the two wives, Li and Sun, chatted with Daiyu, but said that as soon as Yingchun arrived in the garden, everyone was a little surprised. Tanchun asked, "Can the two wives leave? So fast."
Yingchun shook her head: "Talk to those two wives, who would have thought that the two adults in their family are in the same class as Uncle Lin. Even my aunt, the two wives are familiar with each other. I heard that sister Lin is in my house, it must be I want to meet up. I don't want to listen to them talk about themselves, so I came to see the sisters."
When Baochai heard this, her heart suddenly jumped. It turned out that when Daiyu had no one to rely on, Jiamu still looked down on her. If she heard that Daiyu had such connections, wouldn't she have to hold on to Daiyu?
Taking a look at Yingchun, who has become the wife of the family, Baochai said: "Second sister is also confused. Those two wives rashly said that they are from the same department as Uncle Lin, how could second sister be faithful and let Sister Lin go See? If..."
Before she finished speaking, Xichun said impatiently: "I think Sister Bao is confused. When you come to someone's house as a guest, you actually despise the master. If there is no real evidence, how can Second Sister let Sister Lin see someone? Uncle Lin has already Been there for many years, and Sister Lin has nothing to conspire." After speaking, she gave Xue Baochai a meaningful look.
Yingchun gently pulled Xichun towards her, and nodded her head: "It's not big or small, I still haven't apologized to your elder sister Bao." But she didn't explain to Baochai why she believed those two wives.
Tanchun couldn't help asking: "Second sister, do you know which family the two ladies belong to?"
Yingchun smiled and replied: "One is from the family of the left servant of the Ministry of Households, and the other is from the family of the right servant of the Ministry of Rites."
Everyone who listened took a deep breath.No matter how they were raised in their boudoirs, they also knew that this servant was not comparable to Jia Zheng's fifth-rank Yuanwailang.If this is the case, it is naturally true to say that it was the same year as Uncle Lin's.When did the second brother-in-law know such a character?Except for Xichun, everyone looked at Yingchun inquiringly.
At this time, Yingchun was only worried about Daiyu talking to the two ladies, and had no intention of explaining to everyone.It was Baochai who said, "Even if we met at Second Sister's residence, we should go to pay our respects to the two ladies."
But Xichun said impatiently: "People didn't call us, so why bother to post it on your own." Turning around, she only brought the painting with her, and went to the flowers to bloom.
Li Wan saw that Baochai made Xichun's face turn red and white, so he could only smile and help her out: "The fourth girl never wants to socialize and meet people, even if someone asked her to see her when she was in the mansion, she would push her away." Woolen cloth."
But Baochai knew that if a decent guest came from the Rongguo mansion and wanted to meet the ladies in the mansion, Jia's mother would also ask Tanchun to accompany her to meet Lin Daiyu. Second sister?
But that was at the Rongguo Mansion, and he still wanted to see him, so wouldn't it make him look like he was eager for quick success?It is necessary to put on a generous face: "We have been sisters for many years, and I know the pride of the fourth girl."
Tanchun and the others also laughed it off, and no one mentioned going to see the two wives.Yingchun is here estimating the time, seeing Xiuju looking here from afar, she smiled at the few people: "I've been here for a long time and I've neglected the guests, my sister-in-law will take care of me."
Although Li Wan also envied her to be the master of the family at this time, she had already begun to communicate with such powerful people.But he knew that unless Jia Lan got married, he would not be able to live such a life, so he hurriedly urged her to take care of herself.
When Yingchun returned to the main hall, she saw that Daiyu had obviously cried, even the faces of the two ladies also had a look of sadness.The sympathy in the eyes of Mrs. Sun almost turned into substance.It can be seen that he is a man of temperament.
After apologizing to the two, and having Daiyu go down to wash and redress, Yingchun said to the two: "My cousin is sensitive and thoughtful by nature, and the two ladies laughed at her."
This time it was Mrs. Sun who spoke first: "It's rare to be a child with a pure mind. If I don't worry about you being annoyed, this kind of child is the first time I have met her, and I love her from the bottom of my heart. Seeing that she is weak, I wish she could be brought into my home." Go and recuperate her. Why is it that in your house, the diagnosis and treatment have been ineffective for several years, or do you just hire the same imperial physician for the child?"
Hearing her directly pointing out that the Rongguo Mansion didn't care about Daiyu, although it was true, and even though she felt happy hearing it, Yingchun had to say: "My natal family has a large population, even if the wife in charge has neglected for a while, it is also a family member. It's a common thing." As for why Daiyu was the only one left out, and how the two of them made up for it, she didn't have any explanation.
These two also went through the sister-in-law's affair, what else do you not understand?In his heart, he looked down on the wife in charge of the Rongguo Mansion even more.Talking about some gossip, Daiyu has come back dressed again, and thanked the two aunts again for their care.
Mrs. Li smiled and said: "When I saw you today, I felt like a match. I will invite you to stay at home for two days when I post tomorrow. It is because I don't have a daughter, so I wish I could keep you at home."
Over there, Mrs. Sun became anxious: "It's just that you are fast-talking and you have to take the lead in everything. This time I will take the lead in you. Good boy, I will go to my aunt's house tomorrow. I have a little girl at home. Daughter, you are only two years younger than you, and you only feel that you are unique all day long, so go and shame her."
Daiyu listened to the humorous words of the two of them, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "My uncle's self-educated younger sister must be beautiful, how can I compare with it?" Then she remembered that if her mother was there, she would be there too. So humble in front of others.But who can't hear the pampering in those words?The eye circles are a little red again.
If they saw such a woman who was about to cry at every turn, the two wives must despise pettiness.But just after hearing about Daiyu's life in Rongguo Mansion—no matter how much she tried to cover it up, she couldn't cover up the fact that she had been neglected—the two of them felt sorry for her, so they tried to comfort her.
So far, the two sat down for a while and said goodbye to Yingchun.Yingchun struggled to stay for dinner, so the two of them pushed it off because they still had something to do at home.
Yingchun and Daiyu personally sent them to the second gate, watched them get into the car, and then returned hand in hand.Daiyu bit her lips, and bowed deeply to Yingchun: "Thank you, Second Sister, for planning for me. Knowing that my father is not the only one thinking about me, even I... am willing."
With Daiyu's sensitivity, how could she not know that the two ladies came here today?Even if he really has a relationship with Sun Shaozu, he should have posted the post earlier to be polite.What's more, the two of them came hand in hand, and they named places to meet him, so it was obvious why they came.
The only one who can act like this in the Sun family is the second sister.
Yingchun likes her transparency, but also mourns her thoughtfulness, and said with a smile: "Miss Bao said something right, but you're just thinking too much about it. Look at everything for yourself, and just take care of your body."
Daiyu didn't say much when she heard the words, she just kept this feeling in her heart, thinking that she would really make a difference in the future, and it would not be too late to repay her second sister.
When they returned to their rooms, the sisters had already returned, and Xiuju decided to change the tea to a new one, and was being asked about the two wives.As soon as Yingchun came back, he was like a savior, surrounded by everyone around Yingchun and Daiyu, and went out to hide by himself.
Fortunately, Daiyu also knew that today's events had a lot to do with her, so she only thought that she didn't know Baochai's probing words, and she just listened to the two wives talking about her parents' old affairs, so she evaded it.
Baochai also knew that she was too impatient, but she just couldn't suppress the anger in her heart - she thought that Daiyu had no parental relationship, but unexpectedly, two elders came out, who were still of high authority. Yes, how can she not be startled?
Here, Daiyu is also happy and worried for a while, she is happy that her father still misses old friends, but she is also worried that she did not know how to deal with it just now, and she lost the face of the Lin family.
The two of them were originally top-notch among the sisters, and they were often the leaders when they got together on weekdays.Now they have lost their interest, and others can't get excited about it. It's just after lunch and a little rest before heading back home.
When you go back to the mansion, you will go to Jia Mu to report first, and then answer the questions of Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang in detail.Baochai casually said: "Sister Lin won the lottery more than us today."
Mother Jia looked at Daiyu puzzled, and saw that Daiyu's eyebrows were slightly frowned, she stood up and said to Mother Jia, "It's just that I happened to meet the two ladies who were visiting my second sister's house, they were my late father's." In the same year, the family members only talked together. It is also worthy of Sister Bao's talk."
Hearing that Lin Ruhai was from the same year and was still in Beijing, even Jia's mother pondered in her heart and asked, "I don't know which adult it is, how come you know your second sister?"
Daiyu had already figured out what to say: "It was said that one was in the Ministry of Household Affairs and the other was in the Ministry of Rites. I heard that there were still people who were thinking about their deceased father, and it was as if they were frying in their hearts. How can I remember clearly. It was after the two wives left that they finally got married. I heard from the second sister that the two adults met when the second brother-in-law was filling in office."
Ever since Daiyu came to Rongguo Mansion, especially after Lin Ruhai left, the Rongguo Mansion didn't allow her to keep her filial piety for a single day.At this time, when she mentioned that there are still people thinking about Lin Ruhai, even Jia Mu's face is a little hot after she has experienced many things in the world: "That's right, it's rare for the two ladies to think about it. You guys are tired after playing all day, just go back and rest." , and you don’t have to come here at night.” Everyone said goodbye to Jiamu’s return to the garden.
They were talking about Mrs. Li and Sun, but they didn't know that they were also talking about Rongguo Mansion.
"I have never seen such a family. The court ordered the lady of the official family and the granddaughter of the direct relative to come to the door, and they didn't even prepare a house. They invited them by writing several times." This is Mrs. Li's words to Master Li. rhetoric.
"I never thought that the family's rules are so loose. That Xiande concubine is also funny. She doesn't know how old her brother is, so she dares to make such an order. Bah, a concubine dares to say that her words are true." Will." This is Mrs. Sun yelling at Mr. Sun.
After hearing the reply from their wives, the two felt weighed in their hearts, and the more they felt that this matter could be done.Then I asked them what they thought of Daiyu.Mrs. Li is still more restrained: "He is a good boy who knows etiquette. I think Mr. Lin and Mrs. Lin taught him well when we were at home. It's just that he looks weaker."
Mrs. Sun has no scruples: "There is no one in the whole family who thinks that the child is always in poor health and should be seen by an imperial physician. It can be seen whether you care about the child or not."
When asked about Daiyu's marriage with her son, the two wives had the same opinion: "The child's body has been ruined by the medicine, and a good imperial doctor will take care of him for a few years, and he may not be able to take care of him. It's just a matter of thought." It seems that he is a sensitive person, if he only thinks about himself, his son will suffer the same."
Knowing that neither of them had much objection, Li and Sun both thought about it, and went to their study one by one, thinking about the book.During the period, the two met again, and decided to let people go to the old house of the Lin family in Beijing to see if there were any old servants of the Lin family who knew the situation. If they could contact the original housekeeper of the Lin family, it would be more effective.The other thing is to go to Yangzhou to collect evidence that Jia Lian sold the Lin family's property back then.Even if the papers are submitted in the future, they can't be together, but handed in the papers gradually, in case there are old people in Rongguo Mansion, they can hide the papers from them.
Speaking of which, the two of them were over-concerned. Even if the Rongguo Mansion still had some old stories, they were far away from it because of Yuanchun's entry into the palace, so how could they be willing to inform and report this letter for them?
During the period, Mrs. Sun was a trustworthy person. On the second day, she sent the decent housekeeper to come to the door, saying that the wife of the family hit it off with Miss Lin yesterday, and she wanted to take Miss Lin's house to stay for two days because of the old friend's affection.
Jia's mother heard that she was from the family of the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, and she was willing to have such a powerful family to go around, so that she could make some connections for Jia Zheng and get promoted.Since he ordered Zhou Quan to pack up Daiyu's things, and rewarded the visitor, he sent Daiyu out of the house.
Not to mention this incident, not only Mrs. Wang in Rongxi Hall accidentally hit the teacup, but even Jia She, who lives in the East Courtyard, was moved by the letter.His idea was simple: his uncle knew such a powerful person, and he spent a lot of money to get through the joints.If you have that money for others to spend, why don't you honor yourself, this old Taishan?
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, she scolded Mrs. Xing: "The second girl is from our eldest family, and you are also her aunt. Why didn't you care about her for such a big thing as her body? Didn't you care about her once tomorrow? Get some stuff and go check it out."
Mrs. Xing didn't understand what it meant, and she couldn't even count on Yingchun's face, so she asked, "Since the second girl left the door, we haven't visited her once, why did we go to visit her this time?"
When Jia She heard that she was not enlightened, he became even more angry: "It's because you are not close to the child on weekdays, so she doesn't know how to write the word filial piety! This time, I should teach her some rules and talk about it. How to be filial to your parents is the way to avoid making outsiders laugh in the future!"
