"Holy Father" Jia She of the Red Chamber

As Jia Min's husband-in-law and the son-in-law of Rongguo Mansion, Lin Ruhai was moved when he learned that Jia Amnesty brought Jia Lian to Yangzhou to attend Jia Min's funeral. He sent people to wait at the pier every day. just inform him.

Therefore, when Jia She stopped the boat and disembarked, not only did he see Lin Zhong, the chief steward of the Lin Mansion, leading people to guard the pier, but when he arrived at the Lin Mansion, he also saw Lin Ruhai leading people to greet him at the gate of the Lin Mansion.

Jia Amnesty gave Lin Ruhai a large number of glances without comprehension. He really had the appearance of a flower, and his temperament also had the bookish air unique to this scholar, but his complexion looked too bad. Guessing that Jia Min's death really dealt a big blow to Lin Ruhai, It is said that before Jia Min died, their only son also died. Jia Min just couldn't bear the death of his son, so he couldn't make it through, so he followed.

Jia Amnesty's face showed a trace of sorrow, and he took a step forward: "Brother-in-law."

Lin Ruhai looked at the elegant elder brother in front of him, and was taken aback for a moment, then saw Jia She's expression, and his eyes became even more red: "Eldest brother, if Min'er knows that you came here to see her off in person, that's fine. It will be very touching."

She hoped that Jia Zheng's good second brother would come to see her off. Jia She's expression became more sad: "Brother-in-law don't need to be so sad, the deceased is already dead. My sister is alive in heaven, and I hope my brother-in-law can be safe."

Lin Ruhai nodded. He had heard a lot of these words, but Jia Min's death still made him unmotivated. He raised his hand and said, "Brother, please come inside."

Jia Amnesty and Jia Lian followed Lin Ruhai into the mansion, and first went to burn incense in front of Jia Min's coffin. Jia She even took out the scriptures copied for Jia Min on the boat and put them in front of Jia Min's coffin, so that Lin Ruhai would be more sympathetic. I felt Jia She's intentions.

Then the two followed Lin Ruhai to the study, and Lin Zhong also arranged for the people brought by Jia Amnesty.

"Brother, you really have a heart." As soon as they were seated, Lin Ruhai expressed his gratitude to Jia She for offering the scriptures just now.

Jia Amnesty shook his head, expressing that there was nothing serious, and then looked at Lin Ruhai worriedly: "My sister has already gone, I wonder what my brother-in-law's plans are in the future?"

Hearing this, Lin Ruhai gave Jia She a strange look, and then looked sad: "Min'er has already left, I don't know how long I can last, I have already sent people to dismiss those women in the backyard, thinking about it in the future Just do your best for the emperor and do things for the court, that's all."

"Then what should Daiyu do?" Jia She frowned in dissatisfaction: "You have a sister in your heart, and I am naturally happy as an elder brother, but how old is Daiyu, and she has no mother. How should she handle herself?"

"What do you mean by uncle?" Lin Ruhai was even more surprised when he heard this: "Daiyu is the flesh and blood of Min'er and I, so I naturally cherish and love her and think about her."

"Then you shouldn't just think about doing your best for the court, you should also think about Daiyu's future, if the widow and the eldest daughter don't marry, what will happen to Daiyu in the future." After finishing speaking, Jia She couldn't bear to sigh tone.

Lin Ruhai frowned even tighter: "Brother's words are serious. My brother-in-law knows that Daiyu can't be taught by female elders since she was a child. She has already sent Daiyu to Rongguo Mansion through a letter with her mother-in-law. She will teach her personally. After finishing speaking, he looked suspiciously at Jia Amnesty, and then at Jia Lian, who had a strange expression on his face: "Don't uncle know about this?"

Jia She was taken aback for a moment. He really didn't know. He turned to look at Jia Lian who was sitting beside him. Seeing this cheap son's embarrassed expression, Jia She frowned knowingly: "Since brother-in-law has already negotiated with mother Now, as an uncle, I feel relieved. I originally thought that if Daiyu really had no choice, even if it was not authentic, I would persuade my brother-in-law to marry a step-wife. Fortunately, my mother is also from a family background. For Daiyu His upbringing is definitely not bad."

Lin Ruhai's expression was a bit ugly. Anyone who was persuaded to renew the strings during his wife's filial piety would not be in a good mood, but seeing that Jia She came all the way, he didn't want to make Jia She look bad, but the previous treatment of Jia She The gratitude is not so deep, as expected, Min'er is right, this first uncle is not as upright as the second uncle.

Jia She came out of the study with a gloomy face, but Jia Lian didn't follow, saying that he had to ask Uncle Tanhua about some academic matters, so Jia She was asked to go to the guest room to rest alone.

Thinking that Lin Ruhai and Shi Taijun had already discussed Lin Daiyu's stay or staying, but he was kept in the dark, so that Lin Ruhai could have looked at him with admiration because he came all the way to see Jia Min off. His complexion is really not getting better.

Fortunately, because of Jia Min's death, the whole Lin Mansion was covered with a kind of sadness, so the boy who led the way did not have doubts because of Jia Amnesty's expression.

When Jia Amnesty passed by the Linfu Garden, he was really bored, so he said he wanted to take a walk in the garden, and asked the boy who led the way to guard him not far away.

At this time, Lin Ruhai was holding a letter from Jia Lian in his hand, which was said to be written by Jia Zheng and narrated by Shi Taijun himself.

Jia Lian carefully observed Lin Ruhai's expression, and tried to speak: "Uncle, the old ancestor has already made it very clear in the letter, when Cousin Lin arrives at the Rong Mansion, the old ancestor will personally teach her to get along with a few sisters. If Cousin Lin suffers any grievances, please ask uncle to agree to the letter."

If it had been said in this letter before, Lin Ruhai would have agreed. After all, Jia Baoyu's reputation had been mentioned by Jia Min, and with the help of Shi Taijun from the Rongguo Mansion, with the friendship and power of the two families, Marrying Yu'er to Baoyu is really a good marriage, but now, Lin Ruhai is hesitant.

Why?Naturally, it was Jia Amnesty's attitude just now.

As the head of the Rongguo Mansion, even if Jia She doesn't know about Yu'er and Baoyu, he shouldn't even know that Yu'er will go back to Rong Mansion with them this time. What does Lin Ruhai think about this, or, It was Jia Shek who knew about this matter and said that on purpose, and didn't want Yu'er to go to the Rong Mansion and dislike Yu'er, or there was a rift between Shi Taijun and Jia She's mother and son, and even such a thing didn't know that Jia She would say anything about it. , I don't even know about this kind of thing, then in the Rongfu, is there really someone like Min'er who said so well?

At this moment, Lin Ruhai couldn't decide to pay attention.

He looked up at Jia Lian who was looking forward to him, and smiled: "Nephew, don't worry. My mother-in-law and I have reached an agreement on this matter. During this time, my nephew has worked so hard. Why don't you let uncle send you How about taking my nephew to Yangzhou city to relax and relax?"

Jia Lian's heart became hot, and when he thought of the thin horses in Yangzhou ten miles away, his eyes rolled dishonestly, and he bowed his hands: "Then I will trouble uncle."

When Lin Ruhai sent Jia Lian out with a smile, his face immediately changed, and he slapped the desk hard: "It's unreasonable, it's unreasonable."

Lin Ruhai was so angry that not only was there something wrong with Yu'er, but also seeing Jia Lian thinking about those things before his aunt's filial piety made him even more afraid of the purpose of Jia's visit this time. A few points.

Lin Ruhai was angry in the study, and Jia She was also angry in the garden.

For all the situations that are not under control, Jia She's Yibai will be angry, but when he gets angry, he will not vent his anger on any flowers and plants, but will stare at a place expressionlessly, thinking desperately about some countermeasures.

But this kind of scene will make others misunderstand.

Our little friend Lin Daiyu misunderstood.

"Are you, mother's brother?"

A soft and soft voice came from beside him, and Jia She came back to his senses. He turned his head and saw that the little girl was thin, with a pale face and red and swollen eyes. All the maids and maids, Jia She immediately understood the identity of this girl.

Jia She smiled, bent down, and paralleled Lin Daiyu: "Yes, I am your real uncle, Jia She."

"Then you, are you here to pick me up?" Daiyu gave Jia She a timid glance. Lin Ruhai had already told her about leaving her home to go to Rongguo Mansion, and she was also very worried about the future. .

Jia Amnesty's face froze for a moment, and then he looked at Lin Daiyu gently: "Then Yu'er, do you want to go to Rongguo Mansion?"

"Me?" Lin Daiyu was stunned. No one asked her if she wanted to go, and no one cared whether she wanted to go. She knew that her father was doing it for her own good, but she really didn't want to leave her father in Yangzhou alone. Come down to accompany daddy: "I, can I not go?"

Jia She nodded: "Yes." Looking at Lin Daiyu's happy smile because of her answer, he continued: "But if you don't go, your father will marry another woman, and you will have another mother."

"You, you liar," Lin Daiyu heard Jia She's answer, tears flowed from her eyes immediately: "Daddy will not marry another woman, and Yu'er will not have another mother." The little girl covered her face , ran back crying.

Jia Amnesty stood up straight and looked at Lin Daiyu's tearful figure, the corners of his mouth hooked up, Lin Ruhai's move, he lost first, but he won't lose every time, Xunyan Yushi, the emperor's confidant, what a good ally.

When Lin Ruhai learned about the garden from his servants, he was furious at first, so he stood up and walked towards Jia She, wanting to ask Jia She why he treated his Yu'er like this, but when they arrived at the door of Jia She's room , but stopped.

As the emperor's confidant, Lin Ruhai, who has been in the officialdom for many years, naturally thinks more than others. If Jia Amnesty is still what Jia Min said, he will not be his son when he meets Shi Taijun, and he, the head of the Rongfu, will come to peace with him. It is not impossible for Jia Amnesty to vent his anger on Yu'er in the situation of his own conversation.However, ever since Lin Ruhai met Jia She, Jia She has always been a good brother who is graceful and heartbroken for the death of his sister, except that he was a little unnatural when he knew about Yu'er, but it passed quickly , Then Jia Amnesty, why did he say those things to Yu'er?

Lin Ruhai stopped, and Jia Amnesty, who was waiting in the room, frowned slightly, got up and opened the door: "Since my brother-in-law is here, why don't you come in and talk to my uncle, so that I can make good plans for Yu'er's future."

Lin Ruhai nodded sullenly: "Then there will be Uncle Lao."

Jia Amnesty sat down at the table calmly, poured a cup of tea for Lin Ruhai himself, glanced at Lin Ruhai, Lin Ruhai immediately asked his confidant to go out and guard the door knowingly, this uncle obviously had something to say.

"First of all, my brother-in-law is sorry for my rudeness just now." Jia Amnesty got up and bowed to Lin Ruhai.

Lin Ruhai didn't move, but raised his eyebrows.

Jia Amnesty didn't care, and continued: "This time, I came here first for my sister. My sister has been married to you for many years and has suffered a lot. The world says that you and your sister are in harmony, but how is your sister? Did you go there because the Lin family exhausted your mind and lost hope, you and I know it well."

Lin Ruhai's heart ached, and he looked guilty: "It's me, I'm sorry for Min'er."

Jia Amnesty didn't answer his words, and continued, "But my sister is gone, and the person who cares most about my sister is still in this world." He stared at Lin Ruhai, "If you, do you think my sister is about to die?" What would be your wish before you die?"

"Naturally, I wish me well and Yu'er well." Lin Ruhai closed her eyes in pain.

"That's right," Jia Amnesty nodded, "That's why I just wanted you to continue. I didn't want to be a matchmaker for you before my sister's hot filial piety, but after hearing about your future plans, I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to take good care of me like this." Yu'er, as my sister's only child, my sister hopes that Yu'er will live a good life, and then marry a woman who is educated and reasonable, who will manage the back house for you and educate Yu'er for you, so that Yu'er can have a good future in the future."

Lin Ruhai was taken aback, and thanked him sincerely: "Thank you, brother-in-law, it's just..."

"It's just that you and your sister have a deep relationship and don't need other women. I was wrong about that." Jia She stood up and apologized again. I didn't know what mother's plan was before, but if my brother-in-law insists on not remarrying, then my brother-in-law can entrust Yu'er to me, and I can guarantee that in the Rongguo Mansion, I will never let Yu'er be wronged."

This time, Lin Ruhai looked at the simple-faced Jia She, and he suddenly felt that there seemed to be a Buddha's light shining behind Jia She, which made him unconsciously believe in Jia She, and was willing to entrust his precious daughter to Jia She.

Lin Ruhai stood up and bowed deeply: "Then brother-in-law, thank you brother pardon."
