The Concubine of the Lin Family in the Red Chamber

Now Lin Jue can be regarded as one of the little celebrities beside the emperor, and he has made friends with the king of Yonghe County, so the future is really bright.Anyone with some brains knows that they should make friends with Lin Jue, and Yingchun's husband, Qi Anzi, is no exception.

The concierge of the Qi family saw the carriage of the Lin family coming from a distance, so he went to inform Qi An, and Qi An greeted him personally.Lin Jue got off the carriage at the door, but the carriage didn't stop, and went straight into the gate. After entering the inner courtyard, Dai Yufang covered her face with a light veil and got out of the carriage.

Lin Jue watched coldly. Although the Qi family was not a big family, the rules were not bad, and Qi An was satisfied from the bottom of his heart.He knew that Qi An's drunkard's intention was not to drink, but he was already alone and alone, so he didn't mind helping out, and it would be a help in the future.

Lin Jue doesn't mind being used. When others use you, it shows that you are worth using, which is much better than being worthless.Speaking of which, the Jia family is the real big family now, even if they hold their thighs, Qi An should also hug the Jia family's thighs, but now they value the Lin family so much, it can be seen that Qi An still has a bit of wink.

Seeing Lin Jue, Qi An did not perform official salutes, instead he clasped his fists and saluted as if welcoming an ordinary in-law, calling him "Cousin Lin".

Lin Jue also smiled, and said: "We are a family at first, so why not trust us. Besides, today is a good day for my second cousin's brother-in-law, and Jue came here just to be happy."

Qi An hastily called his younger brother, Qi Ning, to greet Lin Jue, "My younger brother, I always admire my cousin Lin the most. I heard that my cousin is coming, and I have been clamoring to meet him." Then he pushed Qi Ning, let him greet Lin Jue.

Qi Ning was only seven years old, his face blushed when he heard the words, he politely greeted Lin Jue, then stood aside, peeking at Lin Jue from time to time, but he didn't dare to speak.

Lin Jue smiled and said warmly to Qi Ning, "A Ning is studying now, right?"

Qi Ning glanced at his elder brother, seeing that he didn't answer for him, he hurriedly tugged at the hem of his elder brother's clothes, Qi An could only answer for him, "Now I am studying with my master at Taichang Academy, and it has been two years."

Lin Jue said with a smile: "That's a coincidence. I have a brother-in-law who has been studying here for two years. His name is Fang Nian'an. Does the younger brother of the Qi family know him?"

The elder brother couldn't answer for him, so Qi Ning rubbed his hands in embarrassment, and replied: "I know him, I'm studying in the same class as him."

Lin Jue then smiled and said: "It's really fate. In the future, the younger brother of the Qi family can come to my house to look for Nian'an more often. You are about the same age, so you just happen to play together."

Qi Ning hurriedly agreed, his eyes flickered, as if he was very happy that Lin Jue had invited him.

The Lin brothers and sisters came early, Lin Jue talked with Qi An for a while, and then other guests arrived one after another.Qi An didn't invite others too much, except for a few relatives of the Qi family, the in-laws of the Jia Lin family.

Jia Lian also brought Sister Feng with her. After all, she was her concubine sister, and Jia Lian and his wife would come if no one else came.Baoyu also came with Jia Zhang, who was accompanied by Baoyu's concubine Xue Baochai and concubine Hua Xiren.

Originally, they were all sisters playing together, but now their identities are completely different, even if it is Yingchun, it is still embarrassing.

Lin Jue greeted each other with Jia Lian Baoyu on this side, and Daiyu exchanged greetings with Sister Feng's son Jia Zhangshi on the other side.

Lin Jue used to look down on Baoyu very much, but now he doesn't need to show him any face, so he only talks to Jia Lian and Qi'an. They talk more about public affairs, but Baoyu can't get in the slightest bit, and wants to go to the inner courtyard to have a look. But thinking that Mrs. Jia Zhang was also there, he calmed down and sat aside boringly.

Not everyone in the Qi family judged the situation as well as Qi An did. There were always a few blind-eyed ones who wanted to chat with Baoyu when they saw Baoyu sitting bored, which would not make Baoyu feel neglected.

Lin Jue looked at Baoyu's restless state, and sneered secretly, for she really didn't seem to be a promising person.

The atmosphere in the inner courtyard was a bit awkward, Daiyu didn't seem to have a close friendship with Baochai, but she just thought that Xue Baochai was after Ziwei gave up her family, and she was a businessman, so she didn't need to be willing to be a concubine and call others I really don't bother talking to him.

Although Xue Baochai has a good relationship with Yingchun, she doesn't want to come to Qi's family this time.She is so high-minded that she really doesn't look down on Yingchun's husband's family. She is just a petty petty servant, so what can she do? She married a concubine from the Hou family, but she gave birth to a daughter and sent a post to invite them Come here, there is really no depth.

But she didn't want to think about it, Xue Baochai was originally a merchant's daughter, and now she is just a concubine, how could she be compared with Yingchun as a regular wife.Jiazhang looked at Xue Baochai's attitude with cold eyes, disdainful in his heart, and pulled Daiyu to talk, but became more and more affectionate.

Although Jiazhang was born in a declining family, his family was full of scholars, not to mention rich, but he also had a small amount of money. However, because his father was not well-known, the family fell into decline.Since the death of her biological mother at the age of five or six, Jia Zhang has been fighting with several concubines and concubines at home, and she has rich experience in fighting.

Unlike Xue Baochai, a rich girl who lives in a comfortable nest, Jia Zhang has seen a lot of secrets in the back house, so how can she let Xue Baochai, who is not clever enough, over her head.Jiazhang's tolerance and retreat time and time again is because she is afraid of her, Xue Baochai. Look at Xue Baochai now, how can she still look a little like she did before?

Jiazhang watched Xue Baochai pass by him, greeted Yingchun with the appearance of a hostess, only watched with cold eyes, but smiled without saying a word.

Sister Feng looked at Baochai with dissatisfaction, and then at Jiazhang's good-natured appearance, she spit secretly, scolding Baochai for not knowing good and bad, and Jiazhang for being useless.

Winking at Ping'er, Ping'er understood, stepped forward and pushed Baochai away without a trace, smiled and said to Yingchun: "Congratulations to the second girl, the second girl is happy to have a noble daughter, and the old ladies are so happy Yes. It’s just that the old lady is old and her legs and feet are bad, so it’s really inconvenient to come here. The old lady caught wind and cold a few days ago, and she was afraid of getting sick, so she didn’t come. I only sent our grandma over to give the two Congratulations, girl."

Then Sister Feng came forward and sat beside Yingchun, took Yingchun's hand, asked Yingchun and the child's condition in detail, and talked about the hardships she had in giving birth to Qiaojie, and gave Yingchun many things to raise the child in detail.Yingchun didn't dare to talk to Sister Feng at first, but because of Sister Feng's strength, she is much more courageous than before as a woman and mother, and it is not easy to have a happy conversation with Sister Feng.

Daiyu didn't know what Sister Feng said, and now she has a baby at home, so she listened carefully.Seeing Baochai being excluded, Jiazhang was very happy in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face, and followed Sister Feng's instructions carefully.

Xiren took a look at his grandmother's expression, pulled Baochai without a trace, and pulled her to stand behind Jiazhang, then lowered his eyebrows and looked pleasing to the eye, with a respectful and docile appearance.Jia Zhang secretly laughed at Xiren's cuteness, Xue Baochai's means were limited, but Xiren was clever, but he didn't know how long this cleverness would last.

Sister Feng talked about the scriptures on children for a long time, and the next few people listened carefully. When it came to an end, the room was silent for a while.

Sister Feng took a sip of tea to moisten her throat. Seeing that everyone was speechless, Sister Feng smiled and said, "Talking about Tanchun is only a matter of seeing each other in the past two months. Your sisters are so cute that they are all in this place." Could it be that we have to be right with our sons and daughters in the future?" Tanchun didn't come here because he was too old to move around.

Sister Feng was just joking, but for a moment the room fell into a strange silence.Speaking of which, Xue Baochai and Jia Baoyu were also married by two aunts, and they became more intimate. At this time, it is hard to say whether Sister Feng did it unintentionally or on purpose. Ashamed.

It was just a joke, but Xue Baochai changed his face directly. Sister Feng felt that something was wrong and was already embarrassed. Seeing Xue Baochai's face, she felt a little angry in her heart.But in a side room, the general dares to show his face to others, he really doesn't know what to say.

After all, it's Baoyu's concubine. It's too rude to be in front of people. It's not good for Jia Zhang, so Jia Zhang said with a smile: "Speaking of which, the second sister-in-law and the second elder brother are also kissing each other, and they are young couples again. , has always been very affectionate, which really makes me envious."

Sister Feng glanced at Jia Zhang, and covered her lips with a handkerchief with a smile. She and Jia Lian were indeed in love, but that was in the past.Ever since the goblin-like woman entered the door, Jia Lian seemed to have been fascinated. Except for the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year, she didn't even set foot on the door of her own house.If there is anything to discuss on weekdays, they will leave after finishing talking, even my own Qiaojieer, who also has a place to retreat.

Thinking of this, Sister Feng couldn't help looking at Daiyu with a bit of resentment in her eyes.Daiyu sat quietly at the side, ignoring the infighting among the family members of Jia's family, these things have nothing to do with her, she is not suitable to intervene.Yingchun looked at this and that from the side, and seeing Daiyu's calm look, she was secretly relieved, and followed Daiyu's example, becoming a mute.

Today was a good day for her, but the members of the Jia family used her place as a raft, and brought the family's wives and concubines to her without hesitation, they really didn't take her seriously.It's just that Yingchun is used to cowardice, she just hangs up the lanterns high, and doesn't care about the words between them.

Those people stabbed each other openly and secretly, but Daiyu didn't look like her, so she could only say: "Second Sister, I don't know if my niece is awake, today is my niece's big day, I am an aunt, You have to take a good look at my niece."

With Daiyu's reminder, everyone remembered why they came here today, they stopped talking embarrassingly, and echoed to let the child be taken out, full of praise.

The nanny came and said that the child was awake, so Yingchun asked the nanny to bring her to show everyone, and everyone praised him again.

Yingchun smiled gratefully at Daiyu, if her daughter's three banquets really ruined the Jia family's daughters-in-law, she would feel wronged in her heart, who would make decisions for herself, and who would speak for herself.Thinking about it this way, Yingchun looked at Baochai with a bit of disgust. The incident was always caused by Baochai. A concubine came out with the hostess's wife to show her face. I don't know where I learned all the rules and etiquette.

Yingchun's eyes were not friendly, Jia Zhangshi saw it, Kankan covered her mouth with a sneer, she is a magnanimous and virtuous second grandmother of Bao, how could she care about like a domineering concubine.It's just a business girl who struggles to marry in as a concubine, something.

Xue Baochai has always regarded herself as a noble daughter, but when Jia Zhang saw Daiyu today, she understood what a real noble daughter of everyone is.Compared with Lin Daiyu, today's Baochai is really not good enough.
