The Concubine of the Lin Family in the Red Chamber

After Lin Jue and Daiyu returned to Lin's house, they began to thank guests behind closed doors, which caused Xie Jinxuan and Li Yibai to send posts several times but never got in.After the first lunar month, Lin Juefang quietly posted a post to invite Master Luo to come to the house.

After hearing Lin Jue's words, Master Luo couldn't help laughing and said, "You're too careful, it's not like this."

"I also listened to Master Jia Er's words, and I didn't know what to do for a while." Lin Jue also felt that he had overreacted. After all, he was not a pure ancient person, so he really couldn't handle it well.

"Supposedly, I should have reminded you of this early in the morning. I just saw that you have nothing out of the ordinary, so that's all. Now I will talk to you. The first three months are filial piety, and we should be vegetarians, because we Since Duke Lin left Yangzhou, this filial piety period was spent on the boat. At that time, you were ill and had difficulty swallowing porridge every day, so there is no need to mention other taboos.

The word filial piety cares about a word of sincerity, not something in this aspect.If you talk about taboos, there are too many. You know some of the big ones, and the others are just teasing things, so you don't need to understand them.You have been keeping filial piety for two years now, and you will be considered filial piety in the third year, and it will be okay to discuss relatives at that time.Counting to the end of the three-year period, a grand sacrifice will be held, and then the spirit will be raised to eliminate filial piety, and then the filial piety will be completely completed. "

"Master has said that, and I have the bottom line in my heart. It's just that it's not good to go out frequently. I'll bother Master to talk to my senior brother, and then I will have a word with Twelfth Master. After the filial piety, Jue went to pay a visit. "

Master Luo snorted twice, "If you want me to say, you really don't need to pay attention to him, he is the prince after all, and the dragon king fights, and the unlucky ones are all the shrimp soldiers and crab generals around him, so what can we do?"

Lin Jue was speechless and could only nod in response.He couldn't tell Master Luo, he always felt that there was something familiar about Li Yibai, but he couldn't tell what it was.This is a bit mysterious and mysterious, I really don't know how to say it.

Don't talk about how the Lin family thanked guests behind closed doors, but only talk about Jia Zheng's side.Jia Zheng received Lin Jue's letter of approval, and after staying for three or five days, Shan Ziye sent a letter to visit him.After finalizing the blueprints and calculating the auspicious day for the start of construction, Jia Zheng finally settled his mind.

Talking to Mrs. Wang in the evening, Mrs. Wang clapped her hands together and recited "Amitabha", and said with a smile: "I really didn't expect it to go so smoothly. This old gentleman is really amazing. I heard from my brother that even if he went to invite him, he would be fine." It may not be possible to get it."

Jia Zheng snorted, "You think I have such a big face, why don't you invite the Lin family to speak up. If you didn't offend the Lin family brothers and sisters, I don't need to come forward in this matter."

Mrs. Wang cried, "Who am I doing this for?"

Jia Zheng snorted coldly, "If it wasn't for the virtuous concubine, you don't have to worry about your family, and even a few girls and women can't stand it. Just rest, I'll go to Aunt Zhao's place to have a look at Huan'er. You That’s right, don’t just stare at Concubine Xiande and Baoyu all day long, Tanchun and Huan’er are also children of the family, so it’s time for you, wife, to worry about it.”

After Jia Zheng finished speaking, he left. Mrs. Wang's face turned cold and stern, hum, a slave girl born by an aunt, is it possible to be compared with her Baoyu Yuanchun?Now Yuanchun has become a virtuous concubine, and Baoyu has a long history, how can she be compared with that villain.Mrs. Wang knew that she was thinking about housekeeping, but she just watched Lin Jue, a little bastard, win the Juren, so she lost her eyesight and wanted to promote Jia Huan, and she didn't even look at their Jia family's family status. A little bastard jumped up and down, and one of their bloodlines hasn't died yet!

Mrs. Wang's face became more and more severe, Caixia looked at Mrs. Wang's face, and felt really sweating for Jia Huan.

But Jia Zheng was very happy to come to Aunt Zhao because Jia Huan had become more promising recently, and Aunt Zhao asked Jia Huan more and more to make progress.Jia Huan himself had some thoughts, but his background was poor, and now that he worked hard, he was even worse than his nephew Jia Lan. He was inevitably annoyed, so he urged Aunt Zhao to beg Jia Zheng to let him re-enter the house. Learn to read together.

Aunt Zhao didn't want Jia Huan to study at home anymore. Because Jia Huan often played with some urchins at home, which made her husband displeased, she was sent out on the pretext, and she also followed suit. Pai 揎, was called by Mrs. Wang to beat it.Now it's so easy for Jia Huan to know that she's making progress, which provokes Jia Zheng to come to her place several times to see her, and she also stays overnight with her at night.If Jia Huan goes to the school again, let's not talk about what he has learned, but whether Jia Zheng can come or not is another matter.

Aunt Zhao was not happy, but Tanchun was far-sighted, so she secretly talked to Aunt Zhao and confessed her thoughts, but she touched Aunt Zhao's loving mother. Said said.

When Jia Zheng came, he saw Jia Huan writing on the desk, and Aunt Zhao pinched the needle and thread for a rare occasion, and sewed by the light of the fire, Jia Zheng's heart softened.

Both Aunt Zhao and Aunt Zhou have followed Jia Zheng for a long time, and they were also gentle and careless, but Jia Zheng has never been like Baoyu, and no matter how warm and careless they are, they are limited.In addition, Aunt Zhou has become more and more old since she lost her child, and she usually stays out of the door. Even Mrs. Wang rarely asks her to go over and set the rules. She looks like a transparent person. No one may pay attention to her.

And Aunt Zhao became more and more vulgar and pungent. She was originally a sharp-edged character, but she didn't have such a rich body. It was Jia Mu who liked her in the past and put her in Jia Zheng's house. Now There was nothing but disgust for her.

Kuang Jiazheng has always been a pedantic and old-fashioned person. He thinks that women should obey the four virtues, be gentle and virtuous, and take their husbands as the guideline in everything. He doesn't like such sharp-edged people.Mrs. Wang was also very straightforward when she was in her natal family, otherwise how could she be hired by Jia Mu to marry Jia Zheng as his wife. After entering the mansion, Mrs. Wang became more and more merciful, she ate fast and recited Buddha, and dared not go past Jia Zheng.It was just that she had figured out Jia Zheng's temperament and known Jia Zheng's character, that's all.

Aunt Zhao was originally beautiful, but her beauty was often overlooked because of her vulgar descriptions. Now that she was quietly sewing clothes under the lamp, she had a different style.Jia Zhengyuan was very satisfied with Jia Huan's recent actions, and even had a good look at Aunt Zhao. Now seeing this again, his heart softened a bit.After all, he has been with me for a long time, even cats and dogs still have some friendship, let alone a living person who knows the cold and the hot.

Seeing Jia Zheng coming, Aunt Zhao quickly put down her work, smiled and went down to the ground to salute, "Master is here."

Jia Huan also got off the ground and saluted respectfully, which he learned from Lin Jue.He knew that when Lin Jue came to the house today, the master called Baoyu to see the guest, but he didn't call him, so he went secretly.Looking at Lin Jue's words and deeds from a distance, he also learned a few points.

Jia Zheng looked at Jia Huan's more and more sensible appearance with cold eyes, and he felt ironic in his heart, "The servants you serve here are all blind. The lights are so dim, how can you make Huan'er work hard?"

Aunt Zhao was about to take this opportunity to complain about Mrs. Wang's harsh treatment of her, but thinking of what she was going to mention today, she finally endured it and said with a coquettish smile: "I saw that the two little ones were also very sleepy, so I asked them to go to bed first." Go and rest, there is nothing wrong with me here, even if there is something, I am used to it myself, so I don't need to work on them."

Jia Zheng also just asked in passing, and he was even more satisfied when he heard Aunt Zhao's rare and sensible words.

Aunt Zhao looked at Jia Zheng's face and saw that there was no disgust in his eyes, so she knew that she had done the right thing before.

"Master is here at this time, can we eat?" Aunt Zhao went to fetch hot water to make tea, "It's getting late, I made scented tea, master, do you think it's okay?"

Jia Zheng waved his hand, "Don't be so busy, I'll see how Huan'er's homework is going."

Jia Huan was standing on the ground with his hands shrunk, not daring to make a sound, but he became even more nervous when he heard this.It was rare for Jia Zheng to hear words to comfort him and said: "I know your foundation is low, but since you know that you are making progress, you should show the appearance of making progress. Don't hang out in the inner circle all day, you will have nothing to do."

Jia Huan answered nonchalantly.

Aunt Zhao then took the opportunity to bring up the matter of letting Jia Huan re-enter the family school, "Because Huan'er messed around before, which annoyed the husband, she never went to school again. I think Huan'er has changed now, and she knows that she is dedicated to making progress." , I am a woman, and I don't understand these things, so I have to ask the master to come and see if I can go to school again?"

Jia Zheng pondered for a moment, because Jia Huan had messed around in school before, Jia Daishan went back to Jia's mansion and refused to ask him to go again.It is said that Jia Daishan's knowledge has always been admired by Jia Zheng. If Jia Huan is allowed to continue studying in the school, Jia Zheng will not object.It's just that Jia Daishan is an elder, since he has spoken, he can't send him directly, and he still needs to think carefully about what to do.

Jia Zheng didn't agree immediately, but told Jia Huan to study hard.Jia Huan couldn't hide his disappointment in his heart. After all, he had grown up compared to before. Although his head was drooping, he didn't feel resentment in his heart, and he brought it to the surface.

Jia Zheng waved his hand and told Jia Huan to go down to rest. Aunt Zhao was so tender and careless all night, but it was rare that she didn't pick up acid or take the opportunity to complain. Jia Zheng was more and more satisfied with Aunt Zhao.I am also very concerned about what Aunt Zhao mentioned tonight.
