Miss Lin Family of the Red Chamber
Chapter 77 Meet, Letter Returns to Beijing for Marriage
"Hey, I'm a little nervous, how about you?"
Meng Yan touched the silver bell on her wrist uncomfortably, listening to the crisp ringtone to calm herself down.I don't know why she really has the feeling that she is a student who made a mistake, and the teacher wants to see the parents.
"Me too." Not only nervous but also a little excited.
She is different from Meng Yan. Meng Yan was a boudoir daughter who was pampered in every possible way in her previous life. Although he has a biological father, he has never been treated by him and has only seen him a few times in his life. His desire for his father and father's love is Meng Yan's desire. I don't understand.
"It's getting late, I wonder if mother has dressed up yet?"
Meng Yan shifted the topic to Meng Shi, and Meng Zhou turned his back on it.Mother got up early in the morning to dress up, and it was really incomprehensible for this woman to go through all kinds of troubles before going out.
Sitting in a daze, the siblings saw that the time was getting closer, and Meng finally came out from the backyard.
The Meng family is only 24 and 24, which is the age when a woman is in full bloom. In addition to her own meticulous maintenance, Meng Yan secretly ate a lot of good food. Since Meng Yan is already 20 and [-] years old, she still has the demeanor of [-] years old.
I saw Meng wearing a lotus blue cross-neck skirt embroidered with a picture of a pair of fish playing with a lotus, and covered with a green beige dotted with peach powder. The hair comb is in a cloud bun and she is lying on her side. There are three golden jade hairpins in love with flowers, with lotus seed earrings on both ears, and double fish play beaded shoes on the feet; this whole body dress allows Meng to fully reveal the gentleness and agility of the women in the Jiangnan water town, making people feel refreshed head-on Lingjing.
"Mother looks really good today." Meng Yan ran to Meng's side with a smile.
"Just your sweet mouth."
"I mean, if you really don't believe me, ask your brother."
"Sister said yes."
The sons and daughters praised Meng Shi for being in a better mood.Meng Yan's gaze fell on Meng Shi's wrist, and seeing Meng Shi's white wrist was inlaid with a pair of white and red two-color jade bracelets, Meng Yan was relieved, she was afraid that Meng Shi would wear the pair of jade bracelets impulsively.But obviously her mother is a smart woman, she should have thought of it.
"Let's go, it's too late."
A restaurant in Yangzhou City.
Lin Ruhai chose a private room facing the street, and sitting by the window, he could just watch the flow of people coming and going from the gate of the restaurant.
"Lin Yi, go down and wait, come up if you see anyone."
"Yes, sir."
Lin Yi is Nanny Lin's youngest son and Xiaolan's husband. He has met Meng's mother and son, that's why Lin Ruhai asked him to go down to pick them up.
Lin Ruhai looked downstairs from time to time, and he was very nervous and worried. He didn't know what happened to the two children, whether he would blame him, or whether he would recognize him.Thinking that he once wanted to give up his two children, he couldn't help but feel guilty.At the same time, he was also eager in his heart, longing to have those two healthy children, especially when his only daughter-in-law was sick.
Lin Ruhai's daughter-in-law was still called Daiyu by her baby name, perhaps it was fate, she was destined to be called by this name.
Daiyu is almost two months old, but her appearance is not as big as a full-month baby. She has been taken care of extremely meticulously, but she still gets sick every day. Lin Ruhai is also exhausted because of this daughter.
Finally seeing the third mother and son get off the carriage, Lin Ruhai couldn't help standing up excitedly. He greedily stared at the two children led by Meng Shi until Lin Yi led San into the restaurant.
Meng shi led Meng Yan and Meng Zhou to follow Lin Yi upstairs, she was very nervous, the hand holding Meng Yan was already sweating/damp, Meng Yan even heard her fast heartbeat, such a fast heartbeat, Meng Yan really Worried that Meng Shi would faint.
"Master, here we come."
Lin Yi announced outside the door, and immediately after the words fell, an urgent voice came from the private room.
"As soon as possible."
Lin Yi pushed open the door, and the three of Meng raised their heads to meet Lin Ruhai's expectant eyes. Meng hesitated for a moment and led the two children into the private room. Her step seemed to weigh a thousand catties, as if she had exhausted all her strength.
The door behind her was quickly closed, and Meng Shi didn't move any further but stood where she was. She let go of the hands of the two children and curtseyed to Lin Ruhai.
"Greetings, my lord."
"Greetings, my lord."
Meng Yan and Meng Zhou also followed the Meng family to greet Lin Ruhai. Lin Ruhai hasn't recognized them yet, so they won't hurry to call their father.
Lin Ruhai was originally full of anticipation and excitement, but was chilled by the two adults. His face froze, but after all, he was an old man who had been in the officialdom for decades, but his expression returned to serious and natural in an instant.
"There is no need to be too polite for the whole family, let's all sit down."
"Thank you sir."
Mrs. Meng thanked them politely and took the two children to sit up. Lin Ruhai's eyes were glued to Meng Zhou and Meng Yan.Seeing the two children Lin Ruhai, who are healthy, energetic, and bright-eyed, suddenly became emotional.
"You, you..."
"My lord, this is Yan'er, this is Zhou'er." Meng pushed Meng Yan and Meng Zhou to Lin Ruhai.
"Wan'er..." Lin Ruhai glanced at Meng Shi gratefully, and reached out to stroke the little heads of the two children.
"Son, I am your father, called Daddy."
Even though he had known the existence of the two siblings for a long time, even though it was already time to meet, but when he touched the two children, he felt that the children really existed, Lin Ruhai was still so excited that his eyes turned red.
The siblings looked at each other, turned back to look at Mrs. Meng and waited for Mrs. Meng to nod before they said, "Son/daughter has seen daddy."
"Okay, okay, okay, good boy." Lin Ruhai embraced the two siblings excitedly.
Lin Yi outside the door was also moved to tears when he heard the voice.
The next thing was more natural. Lin Ruhai asked Mengyan and Mengzhou a lot of things, and ordered a table of Mengyan and Mengzhou's favorite dishes. He generously gave Meng Yan a large purse of money, it was all because Lin Ruhai knew that his daughter was extraordinary, and at such a young age she already knew how to manage the accounts.
Sending the siblings away is naturally a matter of discussing things with the Meng family. As for what to discuss, it is self-evident, but Lin Ruhai obviously won't tell the two children personally about this matter.
The three mother and son didn't return home until the first night of the lanterns. Although they couldn't go shopping with the siblings because of scruples about their identities, Lin Hairu bought a carload of gifts for the siblings and gave them both expensive birthday presents.This first meeting was a successful conclusion. In the following days, Lin Ruhai would always ask people to send some small things to the two siblings from time to time.
In the following days, the Meng family stayed at home completely, and concentrated on embroidering her wedding dress and dowry.And Meng Yan is also focused on collecting things from home, these are all dowry for the Meng family.Knowing that the Meng family has no family background, Lin Ruhai has also contributed a lot to the matter of the Meng family's dowry, and a steady stream of things have been moved to the Meng family.Nanny Lin was often ordered by Lin Ruhai to bring food and clothing to the two siblings.
Mrs. Meng was busy embroidering her wedding gown, Meng Zhou went to school as usual, and Meng Yan had no one to talk to when she was free, but luckily there were some interesting things from time to time in Beijing to pass her time.
After Jia Lian returned to Beijing, he really secretly investigated the affairs of his biological mother, brother and natal family. Let the Zhou family, who had already broken up with the Jia family, let the old lady and the old man recognize him as his grandson.
I learned from Jia Lian that my grandson had been adopted and wasted for more than ten years and had never been educated seriously. He was kept from knowing his biological mother, his family, and even the dowry left by his biological mother. Learned.Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Zhou were so angry that they fell on their backs.
In the following days, the Jia family was unlucky. The first unlucky one was Jia She, Jia Lian's biological father, who was beaten up by the Zhou family's brothers-in-law with sacks in their bags, and then asked him about Zhou's dowry.Knowing that Zhou's dowry was kept by Jia's mother, and knowing from Jia Lian that his biological mother's dowry was placed in Jia's mother and Wang's husband's room, the brothers-in-law of the Zhou family were furious and rushed to Jia's mansion to claim that they would replace their nephew. Ask for a dowry.
Now the whole Jia's mansion is full of excitement, seeing Zhou's dowry being moved out of Jia's mother and Wang's husband's room, Jia's mother-in-law and Wang's embezzlement of the daughter-in-law's dowry was completely humiliated by the Zhou family.Especially Zhou's dowry was sold by Mrs. Wang in exchange for money. If Jia's mother hadn't promised to fully return Zhou's dowry to suppress the matter, I am afraid that no one in the capital would know the scandal of Jia's mansion.
Jia Amnesty was even more of a jerk, and even stuffed the dowry of Jia Lian and his biological mother into the Zhou Mansion. As the name suggests, it was to prevent him from teaching his son, so the son was entrusted to his mother's family.
This matter caused great trouble in Jia's mansion. Although Jia's mother suppressed it and did not spread it in Beijing, many powerful people in Beijing knew about Rongguo's mansion, and they all took it as a joke.
The Rongguo Mansion was disrupted, which distracted Mother Jia from taking care of her good son-in-law's family in Yangzhou. Otherwise, Lin Ruhai's behavior might not be easy to completely hide from Mother Jia.
The Meng family has no elders in Yangzhou, so she can only write to Mrs. Zhang in Beijing for advice on everything.
"Madam, miss, there is a letter from Beijing."
Uncle De came in with the letter excitedly.Uncle De has been in a state of emotional agitation these days, he didn't expect that his master is actually the young lady and master of the Yushi Da's hometown, and he will be a servant of the official family from now on.
He changed from a servant of a merchant family to a servant of an ordinary family. He thought that he could only change his family when the young master passed the imperial examination. He never thought that his master would have such an identity. Now he can be regarded as a salted fish.
"It must be a letter from my grandmother, bring it here quickly."
Meng opened the letter to read, and Meng Yan came over curiously. "Mother, what did great-grandmother say?"
"Your great-grandmother asked mother to come to Beijing, in the capital..." The great-great-grandfather meant to let her go to the capital to prepare for marriage, and let her get married from the Zhang family's other courtyard in the capital. This was considered Zhang's support for her.
Meng Yan took the letter and glanced at it: "In this case, mother, you should go to Beijing. It would be great if your great-grandmother arranged for you."
"But, sir..."
"Mother, if you are worried, you can write a letter and ask your father first." Let Lin Ruhai worry about these things.
"That's fine." In her heart, Meng Shi was still an ancient woman who obeyed the Three Obediences and Four Virtues. "Mother, what will you and Zhouer do if you go to the capital?" If she were to marry from the capital, it would be impossible for her to marry with her children.
"Mother, why did you forget? It will be that person's anniversary in a few days. Dad will carry the coffin back to Gusu for burial. My younger brother and I will also go to Gusu for our identities."
"This……"
"Mother, don't worry, Daddy will take care of this matter." Lin Ruhai is a very careful person, and he will definitely make every possible preparation so that no one will easily take advantage of him.
"Okay, mother knows."
In the next few days, I don't know how Meng and Lin Ruhai discussed it. A few days later, Meng took the prepared dowry and set off for the capital under the escort of the people from the Lin family. Su.
Meng Yan touched the silver bell on her wrist uncomfortably, listening to the crisp ringtone to calm herself down.I don't know why she really has the feeling that she is a student who made a mistake, and the teacher wants to see the parents.
"Me too." Not only nervous but also a little excited.
