[Red Mansion] Marrying a wife like jade

Whether or not to show it to Lin Ruhai has not been a problem since Brother Ai got engaged to Daiyu.Even Shen Ren didn't hide the fact that Beijing officials borrowed money from the state treasury mentioned in Shen Shang's letter, and told Lin Ruhai one by one.

Since they wanted to help each other, there was no need to hide anything, not to mention that the salt tax accounted for [-]% of the national treasury's annual income, and it was Lin Ruhai who collected the salt tax money.

"Shen Shangshu is thinking about self-defilement?" Lin Ruhai had already sent brother Ai to the inner house, and there was no pressure to discuss with Shen Ren.

Shen Ren nodded, then shook his head: "The princes are all grown up."

Neither of the two spoke again. If brother Ai heard it here, he might roll his eyes at Shen Shangshu who is far away in the middle of Beijing—there are thousands of ways to self-defile, why choose such a difficult one?

Lin Ruhai nodded more heavily than Shen Ren: "Your Majesty wants to see clearly the power of the princes. It's just...the saint is already old." Can you still be sure of everything?

Shen Ren also agreed with this point, and the one who defiled himself was his father, so he couldn't help but solemnly said: "I'm afraid it will be more difficult for Brother Lin in the future."

The relationship between the salt merchants is intertwined, and the relationship between the salt merchants and the patrolling censor is originally a game of mutual games.The sages in the middle of the capital set a precedent for the princes to reach out and grab money. In the future, these princes will not have enough money, so they may not directly direct their ideas to the source of the money.

Brother Ai didn't know that Shen Ren and Lin Ruhai had already considered the prince's interference in the salt administration, and they were talking with Jia Min about how to handle Daiyu's affairs.

Jia Min only said that Lin Ruhai's official position was too high, so it was not easy to invite people. He only invited Shen Ren's family and several family members of Lin Ruhai's officials.Brother Ai also felt that this idea was feasible, so he smiled at Daiyu and said, "Whatever Yuer likes to catch, brother will bring it to you."

Daiyu understood more and more words, and her bold words became more and more clear: "Brother, take it."

Brother Ai and Jia Min laughed at the same time. After having fun, Shen Ren had already asked people to call Brother Ai home—today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and their father and son gave New Year greetings to others. For New Year's greetings, if you don't go home and wait for it, it's rude to let people run away.

Fortunately, there is a convention in the officialdom, and the time in between is still reserved.Shen Ren and Brother Ai went home to wash up a little, and only those who paid New Year's greetings together came to the door.Brother Ai received another wave of New Year's money, which was not as valuable as the one Yang Sen gave.

But after counting in the evening, Brother Ai realized what it means to accumulate less and make more: the silver curly is counted, and there are more than 50 golden curly, each of which is three or four points, and there are about ten or two. .One tael of gold and ten taels of silver, not counting that Jin Kuixing, just today, Brother Ai earned more than a hundred taels of taels.

Shen Ren even teased him during dinner: "I just sent out the old year's silver when I got up early, and I made it up in one day today."

Brother Ai also smiled: "I can spend the money myself."

Shen Ren was very vigilant: "What use do you have for flowers, but to buy snacks and other things. Your grandma will always count."

Brother Ai's expression became dull: "I got it by saluting and kowtowing."

Fang said with a smile: "Without the second master, how can others give you a purse?"

Lier, it’s this reasoning, it’s a bit heartbreaking to talk about it now.Brother Ai looked at Fang's eyes almost sadly: "Grandma has never loved me since she had a younger sister. I want to keep the money well so that I don't get caught in the future."

If it wasn't for the unhappiness of the New Year's Eve beating and scolding the child, Shen Ren directly wanted to slap the kid.Fortunately, when he was in the car today, he still felt that the child had grown up. Who knew that before the birth of his brother and sister, he would start to be jealous and have no friendship at all.

Fang Shi saw that brother Ai was joking, so he smiled all over his face: "I can give you all this year, but next year I will give half to my younger sister. Even you have to give my younger sister the new year's money."

Brother Ai quit: "I'm six years old!" His tone was firm, full of unwillingness, reluctance, grievance and accusation.

Mrs. Fang nodded: "Didn't you return Yu'er's New Year's money in the morning? My younger sister has to give it even more. By the way, if it's really my younger sister, you still have to save her dowry."

Why did I forget that since ancient times, in addition to the difficulties of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, there is also a disagreement between sister-in-law and sister-in-law?Brother Ai had no choice but to put on a bitter face: "Grandma should give birth to a younger brother. It will be good for me to have a brother to support me at that time. See what Yang Yi wants, and Yang Bao will find a way to ask for it for him. Besides, the younger brother will get married in the future, and the younger siblings will get married on their own. There is a dowry, so I don’t need to help save it.”

Shen Ren couldn't hold back, and finally patted Brother Ai on the head. Fang was happy to hear this sentence: At this time, no one thinks there are too many sons.

After seeing the lanterns, the New Year is over, and Brother Ai has returned to the days of running between the Lin Mansion and his own family.But now he has new expectations, that is, the day when Daiyu catches Zhou is coming.For this day, he has already put aside the matter of making money - it is easy to find things for Daiyu, but it is hard to think of ways to make money, especially since he is still a child with no freedom of movement, making money is even more difficult It's more difficult, let's pick the easy one.

It was also two days before Catch Zhou that Daiyu stood up trembling slightly, brother Ai didn't see the scene, and when he came to the back house, no matter how coaxed he was, he refused to stand up.

Jia Min looked at Brother Ai's teasing all kinds of fun, but Daiyu asked Brother Ai with a look of contempt, "Yu'er will catch Zhou in the future, maybe your mother will come over?"

Brother Ai patted his small chest to reassure: "Grandma has long said that she will come the day after tomorrow, and she has prepared good things for Yu'er."

When Daiyu heard about the good things, she stretched out her little hand to Brother Ai: "Take it, take it."

Brother Ai was stunned: "Brother doesn't bring it now, how about giving it to Yu'er in the future?"

Jia Min also put on a straight face and said to Daiyu: "Don't be unruly."

Hearing her mother scolding herself, Daiyu's little face also collapsed, she turned her head to find Nanny Gu, and stretched out her arm: "Mommy." She only uttered these two words most clearly, and she didn't know if it was The reason why Nanny Gu cooks delicious food for her in different ways every day.

Jia Min was a little disappointed, but she still had a smile on her face: "This child has always been close to Mother Gu."

Gu Momo also said with a smile: "Miss is smart, she knows that this old servant dare not overstep."

Brother Ai smiled and said to Daiyu: "Can Yu'er go find Mother Gu by herself?"

Daiyu understood what she heard, but she didn't want to move by herself, she just sat on the spot and yelled at Gu Nanny.Under Ai Geer's gesture, Gu Nai only stretched out her arms towards Daiyu from a distance.Daiyu stretched out her hand to reach it, but she couldn't reach it anyway. In a panic, her small body trembled slightly and stood up again.

No one in the room dared to speak loudly, they just stood there for a while watching Daiyu, and still reached out to reach Nanny Gu.The hand was a little far away, Daiyu reached it a few times but couldn't reach it, she took a step forward with her calf, but she didn't have much strength, her body tilted towards the side where she was stepping, Jia Min hurriedly hugged her in her arms inside.

Daiyu herself was startled, her little face turned pale, Jia Min hurriedly patted her on the back and coaxed: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, my wife is here."

Even though Jia Min loves Daiyu, but on weekdays they have to deal with affairs in the back house, and the two mothers don't get close much.Being related by blood, Daiyu is still very used to her embrace. When she saw Jia Min patting herself, she thought it was a game with her, and forgot the fear just now, so she also patted Jia Min one after another: "Yes, yes."

Brother Ai winked at Nanny Gu, and the two slowly left the room, Brother Ai still asked the same question: "Is Teacher's wife feeling better?"

Grandma Gu didn't hide it from him: "My wife received the letter from Beijing a few years ago, and she got angry again. But this time the anger didn't last long, and she didn't get sick. There were also some people who were there when the New Year's wine was held in various houses. My wife is a little bit depressed after talking nonsense about the matter. In the past few days, Ms. Zhang Luo has been busy with Zhou and often discusses with the master, which is much better."

So the women in the back house are fighting for the housekeeping right, not all for the money, people think it is also a career.Jia Min is busy, so she can forget those gossips, which shows that people should be busy.Of course, for Jia Min, having another son is the best.

"After a few days when the weather gets warmer, Mammy still advises his wife to move around more every day. Even Yu'er is the same."

Gu Numming nodded: "Young lady's weak disease, if you don't suffer from it during the season change, it will be mostly cured. The slave is thinking that our grandma's months are getting older, so it's time to go back to the house to take care of grandma."

Brother Ai didn't nod or shake his head, knowing that Jia Min's demeanor just now, Nanny Gu saw it.It's just that he remembered that Daiyu had a younger brother who was three years younger than her in the original novel. Judging from this, Jia Min should be pregnant either this year or next year. If the mother's health is not good, the child born may have the same congenital weakness as Daiyu.At that time, if Nanny Gu came to take care of her, Jia Min's face would not look good.

"Grandma is in good health, and there are quite a few people serving her. Mammy should stay with Yu'er. When she leaves Beijing, Madam should be with her. My wife should tell Nanny the reason." Brother Ai said calmly , but let Gu Momo lower her body a little bit: "Yes, this old slave understands."

Brother Ai is still calm and calm: "Mrs. Lin is just sensitive, but her temper is real. You can tell by how she treats me. You persuade her to take care of her body. If she has a baby, not only will she be grateful to you, Even Yu'er and I are grateful."

In front of this little man who was just over her waist height, Gu Momo didn't dare to be arrogant at all: "Yes, this servant will definitely do his best."

Only then did Brother Ai calm down his face: "Yu'er has to learn the rules, just don't make big folds outside. You don't have to restrain her too much in your own home. She is still young, so she doesn't have to be rigid."

Mother Gu asked a little anxiously: "Young Master, what do you mean?" This girl's family is not good at learning the rules, and she will be criticized by others in the future. Not only will people say that the daughters of the Lin family are not well-bred, but after they get married, they will also say that the Fang family can't take care of their children. daughter in law.

Brother Ai looked at Nanny Gu steadfastly: "I believe that with Mammy's ability, she will definitely be able to find a way so that Yu'er will not make mistakes in front of others, and can live freely behind others."
