Miss Lin Family of the Red Chamber

In order not to make Mrs. Meng worry, Meng Zhou finally managed to deal with it, but he also knew that he could deceive Mrs. Meng but not Meng Yan, so he waited in the study after dinner.Sure enough, within half an hour there was a knock on the door outside the study.

"Come in."

"Why are you alone? Where are Songmo and Duanyan?" Seeing that Meng Zhou was alone in the study, Meng Yan couldn't help frowning.

"I let the two of them go down to rest first, and what happened today scared them both."

Meng Zhou knew that Meng Yan was most worried that he would not be able to leave people around him on weekdays, so he explained for Song Mo and the others.

"Even if the two of them are not here, you should call a servant girl or a boy to wait on you. It's different now."

Ever since the Tianqi Temple incident in Beijing, Meng Yan's nerves have been tense. She was afraid that something might happen to Meng Zhou, and even gave Meng Zhou the guards that Mrs. Zhang sent to protect the Meng family.Although she arrived in Yangzhou, she didn't believe that the Jia family would give up. Today, her guess was confirmed. Meng Yan couldn't believe the ordinary hooligans Meng Zhou encountered today.

"Don't worry, isn't this in your own home?"

"Tell me about today's events. Don't fool me with those words. I'm not the mother who believes in your words the most."

"I know I can't hide it from you."

Looking at Meng Yan's caring eyes warms my heart.

Xiao Mian, just because you still want to hide it from me, Meng Yan proudly raised an eyebrow at Meng Zhou, Meng Zhou smiled helplessly and told Meng Yan in detail what happened on the road, and finally concluded: "They are obviously all aiming at I'm here."

"You mean Jia Lian was the one who saved you?!" Meng Yan couldn't help raising her voice, obviously she was very surprised.

"That's right, it's Jia Lian."

It was only after chatting with Jia Lian that Meng Zhou realized that it was Jia Lian who rescued him. Meng Zhou was also very shocked when he found out that it was Jia Lian who saved him. You must know that he still had to work so hard not to change his face in front of Jia Lian.

How Jia Lian saved Meng Zhou is a bit strange.

"He doesn't seem to know me."

"Bandit, who do you think it is?"

"The person you can think of, except for her."

"Do you think this is Jia Lian giving her Dali, hehe..." Meng Yan raised her eyebrows and laughed twice.

Meng Yan even thought that she could imagine Jia Min's face suddenly changed when he heard Jia Lian rescued Meng Zhou, and Meng Yan felt that he was in a good mood.At this time, she didn't know that her imagination was really accurate.

"Hehe, if she knew, she might vomit blood. But Jia Lian should have seen her by this time, and she must have known." Meng's house is not far from Lin's residence, and Jia Lian must have followed him to Lin's residence.

Meng Zhou was also suddenly secretly happy, gloating.

"It's just... this Jia Lian really doesn't know you?"

"Looking at him, he probably doesn't know him. If you think he's helping someone, it's hard to say."

Meng Yan couldn't help being suspicious. She remembered that both Jia Shi and Jia Zheng and Jia Wang used Jia Lian as their envoy. She remembered that many things in the Dream of the Red Chamber were done with Jia Lian as the gunman, just like what happened to the Lin family after Lin Ruhai died.Ordinarily, since Jia Shishi asked Jia Lian to come to Yangzhou, it was impossible for Jia Shishi not to tell Jia Lian about their mother and son. Could it be that Jia Lian deliberately pretended not to know Meng Zhou?

In fact, how did Meng Yan know that Jia Lian is just a young man of fifteen or sixteen years old, not yet married, and Jia Shishi has not let him handle the family affairs, except for letting him go south every year to see Jia Min, Jia Lian is in the mansion. Li is fooling around outside.

□□, especially the son-in-law’s concubine and concubine who were killed. How could Jia Shishi let her teenage grandson know that such vicious and shameless things happened? Create an image of kindness and kindness in your mind.

As for Jia Shishi in Dream of Red Mansions, if he wanted Jia Lian to do certain things, he would ask Mrs. Wang to speak for her, just like the Lin family.But this matter is related to Jia Min, and Jia Min has been at odds with Mrs. Wang for a long time, so Jia Shishi will not let Mrs. Wang know about this matter.

So apart from Jia Shishi and Jia Min's mother and son, no one else in Rongguo Mansion knew about it.

"No matter what, he saved me, but I have to repay the kindness of saving my life." Even though Jia Lian is the nephew of the Jia family.

"Of course, kindness is kindness, and revenge is revenge."

The second day was Qingming. Meng Yan didn't dare to sleep too late, and woke up at dawn.

Mrs. Meng had already agreed that today she would take the two of them to Miaoyue Nunnery to offer incense to Mrs. Meng's relatives, and to visit Mrs. Huiyin by the way.I haven't been back to Miaoyue Temple since I went down the mountain, so it's time to visit.

The Meng family's ancestral home was in Xuzhou, and Meng Yan's grandparents and others were sent back to Xuzhou for burial. The married daughter of the Meng family could not go back to the Xu family's ancestor's grave to worship, and Meng Yan's grandpa had no heirs. Therefore, the Meng family had no choice but to ask Miaoyue Nunnery to set up a memorial tablet so that they could offer incense and worship during New Year's festivals.

Meng Yan lifted the quilt out of bed and made a sound but did not see Hongxiao coming in, her eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and she was relieved to hear that Hongxiao was talking to someone outside.

"Red silk."

"Oh, Miss is awake, I won't tell you anymore." Hong Kao hurried into the room with water: "Come on Miss, Miss, are you awake?"

"Who do you talk to early in the morning?"

The red silk neatly waited on Meng Yan to freshen up: "It's Qiongzhi, she came here to report the news earlier, it's a big deal for Miss, and Lin Yushi's wife has passed away."

"What did you say?" Meng Yan suddenly turned around and stared at Hongxiao: "Who did you say died?"

Meng Yan startled Hongxiao: "Yes, it is Lin Yushi, that is, Lin Yushi who lives across the street from our house. His wife is dead."

"Jia Min is dead!" Meng Yan was shocked!

At that time, plain and white banners were hung up in the Lin Mansion across the street, and the news of the death of Mrs. Lin Yushi, the patrolling salt censor, spread throughout the entire Yangzhou city from time to time.Speaking of which, Jia Min died at a very wrong time. It was Qingming Festival, and many people went back to their hometowns to worship their ancestors or went out to visit graves, especially when officials from Yangzhou City entered the surrounding towns and sent letters to them. With resentment, I went to the Lin Mansion to mourn.

Lin's mansion continued to cry, and the servants were also busy, crying spirits, welcoming guests, Lin Ruhai, who was haggard and sad, stood in the mourning hall to thank the guests.Jia Lian was also in the mourning hall together, and he couldn't avoid it when this happened. Jia Min was also his direct aunt.

From time to time, Jia Lian glanced at Lin Ruhai with a sad face, thinking about what happened last night, he felt more and more doubts.He had already sent someone to deliver a letter to the capital early this morning, but what Lin Ruhai and Jia Min said was not written in the letter. Jia Lian subconsciously felt that these things should be discussed with the old lady face to face.

After all, Jia Lian is not as young as the tactful second master Lian in the Red Mansion for more than 20 years. These days, he has been arrogant in the Lin family and has not dared to breathe. He just followed Lin Ruhai up and down. Lin Ruhai was frightened when he saw that he was still a child. He didn't say harsh words, but instead prepared a generous gift for Jia Lian to take back to Beijing when Jia Lian returned to Beijing after Jia Min's first seven days.

Jia Lian stood at the bow of the boat until he could no longer see anyone on the shore before turning back to his room with a sigh of relief.The Jia family can also be regarded as a wealthy official family. In this era, the boats of the wealthy and powerful families are all built like painting boats, with two floors on the boat.

Back in the room, Jia Lian still had a headache. It was originally a happy event but he didn't expect it to turn out like this. It's really unlucky that a good happy event turned into nothing in an instant.

Although Jia Lian has been to the Lin Mansion many times, it is true that he has a good relationship with Jia Min. Jia Min doesn't like Jia She, that playboy, and naturally he also doesn't like Jia Lian, a nephew who doesn't understand poetry.Before Jia Min got married, she had the best relationship with Jia Zheng, and naturally she valued Jia Zheng's son Jia Zhu the most.

Jia Lian is a person with a clear mind, and it is precisely because of this that Jia Lian has no feelings for Jia Min.

My uncle knew about my aunt's doing such a thing. How could he tell the old lady about my aunt's departure now?

Chasing the waiter out, Jia Lian sat down angrily and put his hands on the desk. Suddenly, he came across a stack of things and looked up. When he saw a letter, Jia Lian suddenly jumped up from his seat. He took the letter and read it. After a while, he rushed out of the room.

"Laiwang, comeiwang."

"Hey, come, come, what's your order, Second Master?"

"Did someone enter Grandpa's room just now?"

"Ah, no, no one has entered your room, Second Master. The maids cleaned up this room last night, and they haven't entered it today."

"No one..." Jia Lian looked back and frowned.

"Second Master, what's the matter?"

"It's okay, you go down."

"It's the second master!" Lai Wang stretched his neck to take a look into the room, but Jia Lian gave him a sideways look before leaving.

Jia Lian went back to the room and looked at the letter on the case from a distance, hesitated for a moment before walking over to pick it up.There was no word or title on the envelope, so Jia Lian took out the letter paper and unfolded it.On the top is a separate piece of letter paper, but when you unfold it, there is only one sentence written on it: 'Repay your life-saving grace! '

Seeing this, Jia Lian immediately thought of the child he rescued on the way into Yangzhou City, and unexpectedly sent the letter to his room without a sound. Sure enough, the child's family is not simple.

I don't know what the child said he gave in return for saving his life. Could it be the banknotes wrapped in the letter paper?

With anticipation and excitement, Jia Lian opened the stack of letter papers below, but he couldn't help but be disappointed when he saw that it was just letter papers.

But he read the letter patiently.

The first line actually mentions his name, Jia Lian's biological mother Zhou, the daughter of Master Zhou Yiwen, a scholar of the Palace Pavilion...

Jia Lian stared at the first line of words in astonishment. Although he hadn't studied much, he still knew Zhou Yiwen, a senior scholar of the palace, but he never knew that Zhou's family was his natal family.

He didn't know that his mother had such a prominent background, but why did the old lady and aunt clearly say that his biological mother's family had already fallen into a family of officials and eunuchs?

Thinking that he has never been to his natal family and has never seen his natal family visit him, what is going on?

Jia Lian read the letter eagerly, word by word, and the more he read it, Jia Lian's face changed more and more. His face was blue, red and white, and he was sad, angry and angry.

How dare they, how dare they do this... Pity his mother, pity his elder brother, he didn't know that he had a foreign family, and he actually recognized a thief as his mother... Jia Lian fell to the ground holding the letter paper...
