The Founding of the Red Chamber

As soon as Lin Jing came home, he was so majestic and full of excitement.

He is not the kind of loud and loud voice, but, as soon as the fourth master comes back, the Duke's Mansion will definitely be three points more festive than the New Year.

Erlang and Saburo all came home from their self-study. When the fourth uncle left home, they were still young. For this fourth uncle, they have always only lived in the memories of their mother and elder brother.Seeing the real person this time, Erlang is grown up now, very stable, as if carved out of the same mold as his brother Lin Ze, like a young adult.Brother Sanlanghong is more lively, he knows how to flatter his fourth uncle when he sees him, and said, "The fourth uncle is really handsome, even Bi Niang and eldest brother are handsome."

"That's right!" Lin Jing said, "As the old saying goes, love is born from the heart. Fourth Uncle has a good heart, so he was born handsome."

As far as this is said, the maids laughed when they heard it.

Lin Jing hugged Erlang, Erlang was too big to hug, so he patted Erlang on the shoulder and praised Erlang for his height.Sanlang could still barely move, even if he asked his fourth uncle to hold him, Sanlang was not uncomfortable, but just looking at his physique, he was afraid that he would be exhausted and paralyzed.After being surprised by the fourth uncle, he sat on the chair by himself.

It can be said that Lin Jing has returned home, although his official position in Hanzhou City is not worth mentioning in the eyes of the people in the imperial capital, let alone compared with the title of Duke at home.But the official Lin Jing got it by himself, and now Hanzhou City belongs to him, and he is more comfortable in Hanzhou City than when he was in the imperial capital.

Lin Jing and Erlang Saburo said, "When the fourth uncle triumphs, I will pick you up to play in Hanzhou City. Oh, my place is great, it's very lively." They began to brag about how prosperous and lively Hanzhou City is. , How come there are so many strange things, the two nephews' eyes are straightened.San Lang was still afraid that his fourth uncle would coax him, so he said, "Fourth uncle, this matter is settled. Fourth uncle, you have to remember, when fourth uncle comes back from suppressing the bandits, he will pick me and second brother over there."

"Sure!" Lin Jing said, "You haven't met your brother Anian yet, he is serving as a general under my command now. When you go, you will know how good Hanzhou City is. When you grow up, if If you are willing to lead the army, just go there, Fourth Uncle will find an official for you."

Erlang said politely, "That's so embarrassing."

Saburo is very generous, "Then I have to practice martial arts more diligently, and then help fourth uncle run errands."

Lin Jing smiled, "Yes, that's the way it is. You have to learn your skills. If you don't have the skills, I have to arrange a job for you to eat. If you learn your skills, there will be high-ranking officials for you."

The Yue family said solemnly, "Being an official is not easy. Your fourth uncle was selected as a scholar at the age of 12, and he has the ability to do what he is today. You only see your fourth uncle's brilliance now, how do you know how hard your fourth uncle worked hard when he was studying?" .”

Saburo asked, "Could it be that you work harder than elder brother?"

"Of course." Yue said, "Your fourth uncle worked the hardest when he was young."

Therefore, the eyes of the two nephews looking at the fourth uncle were full of admiration. You said that the fourth uncle was so embarrassing, and you felt that the sister-in-law was very good at educating children.

Lin Jing also had a good meal at noon, he said, "After eating, I still think the food at home is the most palatable."

The Yue family was very distressed, and said, "You go south this time, bring our cook with you."

Lin Jing barely choked, and waved his hands again and again, "How did this happen? I haven't heard that there are cooks in war. If this is spread, it will be ridiculous."

The Yue clan served Lin Jingshun a bowl of soup, and said, "What's the matter? There must also be military cooks in the army, so let our cook be called a military cook."

"No, no, I've brought a cook, so I can't bring another one."

"There are tens of thousands of people in the army. It doesn't matter if there is one more or less." The Yue family is good at arranging this matter, and he said to Lin Jing, "Just take it."

"It's really not necessary, sister-in-law, don't spoil me. I have to set an example of hard work and simplicity in front of my nephew."

Yue Shi smiled, "Sure, if you don't take it, don't take it. It's just that the cook is no better than others, and the one you bring must be loyal and reliable."

"Don't worry, sister-in-law, I've been with me for several years."

The Yue family stopped talking about the cook, and asked Lin Jing about his diet in Hanzhou City, would he be uncomfortable.Lin Jingdao, "When I first went there, I thought it was a bitter place, but after staying for a long time, I realized that it is really a good place. There are all kinds of game, which only the imperial capital does not have. Even the mountains, rivers and seafood, there are a lot of them. Sister-in-law, do you remember? Back then, the Second Grandpa’s family invited bear’s paws.”

"How can I forget this."

Lin Jingdao, "There are a lot of bears in our area. I'm tired of eating bear's paws. There are also big fish in our area, sturgeon fish. You may not have seen sister-in-law. Big fish weighing a thousand catties. Last year When Ah Nian went to my place, the fish roe alone weighed dozens of catties, and I told him to take it back to make up for his elder sister and her husband. Ah Nian also said that he had never seen such a big fish in the river. That fish, It’s only in our Hanzhou City.”

Yue said, "I saw it once when I was a child. It was dried. It is indeed a big fish. The dried ones are more than ten feet long."

"Sister-in-law is really well-informed." Lin Jing said to the two little nephews, "When you arrive in Hanzhou City, Fourth Uncle will take you to catch big fish."

Saburo was very curious, "Fourth Uncle, how do you catch such a big fish? The fishing line can't hold it."

Lin Jing said, "Of course you can't use ordinary fishing lines. Some use nets. There are villages that live on fishing and hunting. Every winter, they use nets to catch fish. Those are not ordinary big nets. We still have fishing in Hanzhou." On the festival, when it comes to fishing, half of the people in the city go out to watch the excitement. At that time, the smallest fish in the net weighs more than ten catties. If some ordinary fishermen want to catch sturgeon, they have to use fish arrows, a sturgeon It is not uncommon for fish to toss for ten days and half a month. Sometimes luck is bad, and it is not uncommon for such a big fish to overturn the fishing boat."

Saburo asked, "Fourth Uncle, is this fish delicious?"

"Delicious, very fragrant. I also asked the cook to learn how to grow fish roe from the Raksha Kingdom. The fish roe is very delicious. I used to be afraid of the cold. I often eat this kind of fish in winter, and I feel My body has improved a lot.”

Lin Jing spoke clearly, and after lunch, Lin Jing was talking with his sister-in-law, while the two young nephews were listening, interjecting from time to time to ask some questions.Lin Ze came home in the afternoon, and now he has an errand, so he returned home early.As soon as Lin Ze came home, he heard the two younger brothers say "fourth uncle is long and fourth uncle is short", chattering around the fourth uncle like little birds.Lin Zexin said, Fourth Uncle won't be lying again.Come on.The last time I went to Jinzhong with my uncle to visit my uncle, he was deceived by my uncle quite a bit on that trip.

Seeing Lin Ze's return, Lin Jing was very happy. He was in pain with all three nephews, but the one that hurt the most was Lin Ze.Lin Ze was inspired by Lin Jing when he was a child.Lin Jing joked, "Oh, my eldest nephew is back. I heard that you are an official. Are you busy?"

Anyway, it would be weird for his fourth uncle to say anything good, Lin Ze greeted his fourth uncle, Lin Jing looked at his seriousness, and said, "I don't like your father's rigidity the most, I don't like If you haven't looked at you for a few years, you've learned everything. Come and sit, what are you doing standing up, and I invite you."

Lin Ze smiled, "I don't want fourth uncle to invite me, I'm afraid my nephew will sit rashly, and fourth uncle you will pick on my nephew as disrespectful. The elders didn't give me a seat, so I dare not sit."

"Then you stand still."

Lin Ze smiled apologetically, "It's time to sit, so fourth uncle will reward my nephew with a seat." Lin Jing laughed out loud.

Lin Jing pulled Lin Ze to ask him about his mission, Lin Ze said, "I'm just busy with the army's expedition, and now the six departments are so busy with this."

"What's so busy here? They're all heading south. Food, grass, and weapons should all be ready. Apart from here, what else is there to be busy about?"

"That's a lot. Like our Ministry of Rites, His Majesty will personally send you to Suzaku City. All kinds of ceremonies and etiquettes are the affairs of our Ministry of Rites, so naturally we can't be careless."

"These are just minor details."

"This year's most important thing is this matter. Back then, when His Majesty established a queen, there was no such person in the Ministry of Rites who turned his back on his back."

The whole family was talking when Lin Yi came back.A servant who had been watching his face came in and quietly delivered a letter, saying, "My lord's expression is not very good when he heard that the fourth master is back."

As soon as the letter came in, Lin Yi followed him into the room.

As soon as Lin Yi entered the room, everyone was laughing and laughing, but seeing Lin Yi's expression, no one dared to speak.Lin Yi stared straight at Lin Jing, as if he was about to swallow Lin Jing alive.Lin Jing originally had his legs crossed and was stinking with his nephews, but when he saw his brother's face, Lin Jing hurriedly put down his legs, glanced at his brother, and didn't say a word.

The Yue clan came back to his senses, hurriedly stood up to serve her husband, and said with a smile, "I came back early today, remember Ah Jing."

"Which one is Ah Jing? I heard that there was an unexpected visitor at home. Now that I see you, it's true."

Lin Jing rolled his eyes angrily, raised his chin, and turned his face to the sky. He was a hundred times more arrogant than his brother, "Don't dare, I and Sister Da are sworn brothers and sisters, let's go to see Sister Da today I don’t want to meet my eldest brother-in-law, oh, it’s really abrupt.” In a blink of an eye, the sister-in-law became the eldest sister, the eldest brother became the eldest brother-in-law, and the nephew became a nephew... This is really true, Lin Ze is still thinking about it, see you later Do you want to call him uncle instead?

The Yue family and the children were all dumbfounded, Lin Yi was so angry that his liver ached, thinking about why his mother gave birth to such a thing in the first place.Lin Jing accepted Haoer when he saw Haoer, and cupped his hands, "I've seen my elder sister and nephews, so I'll take my leave now. Eldest sister doesn't need to send it away." Looking at his brother's face like a king of hell, he didn't mean to keep him.

Lin Jing went out, and Yue raised his foot to see him off, Lin Yi shouted, "Come back!" He carried Lin Jing out by himself.

Lin Ze was still afraid that his father would hurt his uncle, so he hurriedly chased him out. The Yue family was sad and sad, and choked up, "What a crime this is."

Since Lin Jing was weak, he suffered from three disasters and seven illnesses when he was a child. Now, although he claims to be an outstanding character, objectively speaking, Lin Jing is really not a high-ranking leader.Compared with his elder brother, he was even worse by half a head. Lin Jing was very uncomfortable being held by his elder brother's neck at the moment.Lin Ze persuaded from the side, "Father, take it easy, you're strangling my uncle!"

Lin Yi was furious and shouted, "Who is your fourth uncle!"

Lin Ze trembled in fright, Lin Jing was already strangled enough, seeing Lin Yi still scolding Lin Ze, Lin Jing was not a good tempered, he immediately clamped his legs up, clamping Lin Yi's waist, The neck is no longer constricted now, Lin Jing gave his brother two paws, and said angrily, "Why are you shouting!" Don't look short, the voice is not lower than his brother.

Lin Ze saw that his father's face was brightened, and he was almost paralyzed by fright.

Lin Yi was so angry that he reached out to beat Lin Jing.It happened to Lin Jinghou, even though Lin Jing doesn't know martial arts, it's not easy to get along with him.The key is that he can hold back his face and use any tricks.It's not that Lin Yi is afraid of Lin Jing's useless tactics of grabbing and biting, it's just that he doesn't want to get hurt on his face.Lin Yi ruthlessly slapped Lin Yi's butt a few times, grabbed him and threw him out of the door, and ordered the porter, "Close the door! He will not be allowed to come in again!"

Lin Jing stumbled outside the door, jumped up and banged three feet against the door, and said angrily, "I won't come if you invite me in the future!"

Lin Yi's face turned dark, and he even dared to kick the door. Lin Yi opened the door with a bang. Lin Jing saw that his brother came out with a stick this time, and immediately ran away, looking back at his elder brother. With a glance, the end of his eyes swept around and saw people who seemed to be looking around, he immediately poohed three times, and ran away.

Lin Yi was so angry that he suffered from insomnia for most of the night.
