Struggle of the Woman in the Red Chamber

Ever since she heard her son and daughter-in-law confront each other and broke up unhappy, Qin Tong began to frequently go to the gatherings of noble ladies, and no matter what the theme of the gathering was, the focus of her attention was either the daughter of the Wang family or the lady of the Li family. It's fine to pay attention to others, she also kindly took the girl's hand and asked her age, knowledge, hobbies...

The ladies looked at each other and remained silent for a long time, maybe it could be said that they were too tired from winking at each other?Finally, a bold lady couldn't help asking: "Old lady, how is your wife doing recently? Why didn't you come out to play with everyone?"

Qin Tong supported his forehead, sighed, and said, "Accidentally blowing the wind, she has been recuperating recently." Speaking of this meal, Qin Tong turned his head and said to the daughter of the Fang family whom he had just talked to not long ago: " It's better to be more lively like this, you little girl doesn't know, run more and move more, this person's body will be better, oh, you will know the benefits after you marry someone."

These words made the wives even more imaginative, so within a few days, the news that Mrs. Lin had chosen the second wife for Mr. Lin spread throughout Suzhou City.

This Suzhou city is quite big, but the upper class circle in this Suzhou city is not big, so the parties involved in the rumors got the rumor very quickly.

Lin Ruhai's reaction was: Are these gossip people too idle?This nonsense skill is really good... Then, he turned around and continued to devote himself to tedious official duties.Of course, there will be people close to him who will come to ask him for confirmation, but Lin Ruhai always denies it: rumors stop with wise men!

how can that be possible?The Lin family has never had such unruly behavior in the past dynasties, and he does not want to and will not break this family tradition.According to his understanding, the reason for such rumors is that his mother was hurt by his unfilial son and daughter-in-law, so when she saw a good girl from someone else's family, she couldn't help being empathetic and cared a little more. Gave others such a misunderstanding...

Lin Ruhai secretly blamed himself for self-reflection, he must spend more time with his mother in the future, and comfort his heartbroken mother...

And the other person, Jia Min, who didn't appear in the rumors but was most involved in the rumors, of course, quickly learned about the rumors from his own channels.Unlike Lin Ruhai who simply regarded it as a ridiculous rumor, Jia Min really believed it.

How could she not believe it?Now her mother-in-law treats her distantly and indifferently, and her husband doesn't care about her even more, and she has indeed been diagnosed with severe palace cold and difficult to conceive. They choose another good wife...Under such pressure and crisis, Jia Min was finally overwhelmed and fell ill.

In fact, Jia Min was too worried, Qin Tong had no intention of giving Lin Ruhai any second wife.The Lin family is a well-known scholarly family. In this day and age, it doesn't matter how important a good reputation is, so she will never destroy the good reputation accumulated by generations of the Lin family. Therefore, her grandson must come from Mrs. Lin must be the first wife.Since Jia Min can't do it, then it's good to change someone, no one stipulates that Mrs. Lin has to be Jia Min, isn't she...

When Qin Tong first received this task, it flashed in his mind that the way to complete this task was to change Mrs. Lin.In the original Red Chamber, Jia Min had only one daughter, Lin Daiyu, who was killed by the Jia family in the end, and the Lin family became extinct because of this, and the Jia family swallowed up all the wealth.With such a tragic ending for the Lin family, Qin Tong, who is familiar with the final outcome, certainly does not intend to keep Jia Min. After all, no matter how beautiful the fairy is, it is not as important as her completing the mission to save her life.

There is a saying that says that you will die while you are sick, and there is another slang saying that a good man can't hold back three times.It is not easy for Mrs. Lin to find some crotons.

The daughter-in-law was seriously ill, and as a good mother-in-law, Qin Tong had to sit in the main hospital to take care of her. She hired famous doctors and used all the best medicines for her. The nourishing soup with good soup and water was moved to Jia Min's sick bed like flowing water.

But Jia Min was still getting weaker and weaker, and she was still vomiting and diarrhea.Because she was too weak to move, and there was a ward with critically ill patients who couldn't open the windows for ventilation, so the smell in Jia Min's bedroom was sour...

Anyway, when Lin Ruhai came to visit his seriously ill wife, he came out in less than a cup of tea, and couldn't help but vomited while holding the outer wall...

After hearing the news, the officials and wives of Suzhou City naturally also made appointments one after another to visit the seriously ill Mrs. Lin.After returning home, they lamented that Mrs. Lin Jia was lucky to have such a good mother-in-law.

Look, don't set strict and cumbersome rules in normal times. She hasn't given birth to a child in five years, and Mrs. Lin didn't bother her no matter how worried or anxious she was.Now that I have such a nasty disease again, my mother-in-law not only doesn't dislike her, but also takes care of her so kindly, she is nothing more than a real mother.Compared with my own mother-in-law who treats me like that angry-eyed king kong, I can only sigh again, it's really different for different people...

Xu Shi was envied and envied by too many people, Xu Shi couldn't match the blessing of her mother-in-law's careful care, Jia Min persisted for a few more days, and finally passed away.

Lin Ruhai is only a fifth-rank acquaintance now, and his official position is a bit smaller, but he can't stand the tallest Lin family. Mrs. Lin still has the order of Mrs. Hou Ye's first-rank, so Mrs. Lin Jia Min's funeral can be done on a large scale It can't be too small, especially when there is the Jia family who are watching covetously.

The person who went to Jia's mansion to report the funeral was the second steward of Lin's mansion. This man was already a respectable figure in the Lin family in Suzhou City, but in front of Jia's mother who lost his beloved daughter, this man lost all good looks and was furious. Mother Jia fought for a while.

Because Jia's mother insisted that it was the Lin family who tortured her daughter to death, and even after beating up the servants of the Lin family, she still couldn't let go of her hatred. Jia's mother ordered Jia Amnesty to take people to Suzhou City immediately to find out the real cause of Jia Min's death.She thinks her doubts are justified. Her daughter's previous letter said that her mother-in-law was angry with her to play tricks and started to set rules for her. The relationship has deteriorated, and it is very possible that her mother-in-law used some secret method to kill her Min'er.

Since she was really worried about her eldest son, Jia's mother invited Shi Ding, her natal nephew, to accompany her. This kind-hearted and flexible elder son was much better than her mediocre and dull eldest son.Shi Ding was indeed very witty. When he arrived in Suzhou City, he asked Jia She to go directly to the Lin Mansion. He secretly visited Suzhou City.

Finally, Shi Ding was puzzled. Before he came, his aunt swore that his cousin was killed by the Lin family, but the news he got during this time showed how his cousin was the envy of other wives. Jealousy exists.Shi Ding had no choice but to be convinced that his aunt was worrying too much and wronged the Lin family.

It took Shi Ding nearly half a month to visit and visit. Now that the whole funeral is almost over, it is not easy for him to go to the Lin Mansion again.So, when Jia She finished sending his sister off to the ground, the two met on the way back and returned to the capital.

Uh, to put it bluntly, neither of these two people has any deep feelings for Jia Min.Shi Ding is Jia Min's cousin with a different surname. Due to the great defense of etiquette, the two of them haven't met a few times since they can remember.In Jia She's eyes, this younger sister prefers the prudish younger brother, so why is he wasting his affection...

In other words, Shi Ding went back to report to his aunt: "The Lin family is a well-known kind family, and Mrs. Lin is also very kind and tolerant. My cousin is the head wife in the Lin family, and when my cousin is seriously ill, Mrs. Lin has always taken care of her cousin. She and her cousin are notoriously affectionate husband and wife, if you say that the Lin family has harmed your cousin, no one in Suzhou will believe it."

He felt that his aunt judged the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.Those who are close to him don't know that his cousin has been ill since she was a child, and she takes more medicine than food.At that time, if she didn't have such a weak body, maybe her cousin would have become a concubine.But he couldn't say it directly to refute Aunt Weiyan's words.

After listening to her nephew's words, Jia's mother remained silent for a long time, and finally sent her nephew and eldest son away, and lay down on the long couch with her eyes closed and meditated.Maybe she really thought too much?Thinking wrong?Min'er really died of illness...

Mother Jia recalled the image of the Lin family's mother and mother that she had seen when she was talking about the marriage. Well, she is indeed an easy-going person who eats vegetarian food and recites Buddhism. She should not have any vicious methods...

A gap was opened, and other memories seemed to be released from the cage, which reminded Jiamu of many past events.At that time, Jia Min lost the election due to poor health, and Jia's mother was angry and ashamed, and just wanted to marry off the girl who had humiliated her.

Fortunately, Jia Daishan was still there at that time, he loved his daughter more purely than Mother Jia, and he was more careful in choosing a husband for his daughter.It just so happened that that year was also the year of the Grand Competition, and Lin Ruhai, a young talent who is now a science explorer, quickly came into his sight.

Lin Ruhai came from a scholarly family of Zhong Ming Ding Shi, only because of his father's early death, he was a little weaker, but his family was rich, so he didn't have to worry about his daughter's hardship in terms of food and clothing when she married.He is an only son, and only has a widowed mother. He doesn't have any sister-in-law and uncle to trouble him, and he doesn't have the troubles of a big family to bother his poorly-healthed daughter-in-law.

Another consideration is that, with Jia Daishan's perspective on people, he found that Lin Ruhai was by no means a mediocre person who had lived under others for a long time.Not to mention anything else, just by looking at the sophistication in speaking and doing things, you can know that this person will definitely be a capable minister in the future.Coupled with the extraordinary appreciation of the emperor for his super talent now, Jia Daishan believes that in a few years, this man will also become a powerful minister in the future.And such capable and powerful ministers can just make up for the lack of the Jia family's next generation in the court after him.

Who knows whose son is, Jia Daishan also knows that his two sons are more incompetent than the other, so Jia Daishan can only place his hopes on the grandchildren, but in the 20 years before the grandchildren can grow up, the Jia family It can only be supported by outsiders.Therefore, Jia Daishan spent a lot of money to marry the daughter of a famous Qingliu official for the eldest son, and married the daughter of the Wang family who had a promising boy among the four major families for the second son, and of course his own daughter had to marry a boy who was also promising up.

Lin Ruhai was unwilling at the beginning. In Lin Ruhai's plan, he wanted to find someone who was also from a scholarly family.Although the Jia family seemed to be more powerful than the Lin family at the time, the Jia family was a nouveau riche in front of the well-established Lin family.

But Jia Daishan is a dignified Rong Guogong who holds a lot of power, no matter how proud and arrogant a person is in front of him, he has to weigh it carefully, let alone the stunned Lin Ruhai.So, there was a stalemate between the two.

Until one time, Lin Ruhai came to visit at the invitation of Rong Guogong, and happened to meet Jia Min who had come back to greet his father.So, Lin Ruhai, who thought he was not a stunned young man, did something very stupid. He fell in love with Jia Min at first sight.

Of course, modern people know that the so-called love at first sight is nothing but love at first sight.What's more, Jia Min is definitely the fighting beauty among beauties. For Lin Ruhai, whose life is almost comparable to that of a monk locked in a temple, it's no wonder that his heart beats faster and his mouth becomes dry.But at that time, Lin Ruhai didn't know, he just thought it was a coincidence from the heavens, so that he could know that this beautiful woman was definitely his destined virtuous wife... So, when Jia Daishan made side-talking again, his mind was full of beautiful women Lin Ruhai gave a clear message and agreed on a marriage between the two families.

Thinking of this, Jia's mother came back to her senses, thinking that the gifted scholar whom everyone praised was actually a foolish boy, and found it extremely funny.This man, no matter how shrewd or wise he is outside, once he is fascinated by beauty, he will lose his mind.He didn't even think about it, how could the majestic Duke's mansion allow outside men to freely enter the second door where the female relatives come and go?Even if there is a special situation that requires the outsider to enter the second door, how could the servant not give an early warning to clear the way?Such a big loophole, with Tan Hualang's mind, still can't figure it out. I can only say, who else will he let if he doesn't take the bait?

After a sarcasm, Mother Jia also withdrew her wandering thoughts, and thought again, her daughter is gone, but the old Rong Guogong's careful planning must not be in vain, Lin Ruhai still can't give up as a preliminary pawn, then Lin Ruhai has to be someone arranged by their Jia family to fill in the house...
