Rebirth of the Zhang family in the Red Chamber

"Second Master Xun is back, Second Master Xun is back" the little girl's surprised voice came into the inner courtyard, and the lively inner room fell silent for a moment, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, Jia Baoyu stood up from Jia Mu's arms first , said in great surprise, "Second brother Xun is back, is it true that sister Lin is also back?"

After Jia Baoyu finished speaking, he ran to the door, wanting to be the first to see Sister Lin.Mother Jia also let Yuanyang stand up with a smile on her face, waiting eagerly, but she was a little puzzled in her heart. It is said that Xun'er should not have come back so soon.

The eldest wife was full of smiles. She had been thinking a lot about her son's absence for so many days. She was always worried that her son would not be able to eat well, live well, and servants would not serve him well. Now that he is back, she is relieved.

The second wife still looked like a bodhisattva, and she said empathetically to the smiling eldest wife, "It will be fine when you come back, Xun'er has never been away from home for such a long time, don't say sister-in-law, you are worried, even me As the second aunt, I am worried about Xun'er, now that I am back, my sister-in-law is relieved, and Feng'er doesn't have to worry about Xun'er eating well and falling asleep."

The eldest wife smiled reservedly at the second wife, and didn't answer at all. She has always looked down on the second wife's personality, and in addition to the filth of the two rooms these years, she is not as thick-skinned as the second wife's family. She clearly hates each other in her heart She's going to die, but she still shows this intimacy, who doesn't know who here, who is she trying to fool.

Wang Xifeng smiled shyly, holding the second wife's arm, shaking slightly, "Auntie"

"Hehe, it's rare that Feng Lazi has such a shy moment. Okay, okay, I won't say anything, I know you must miss Xun'er, so hurry up and wait at the door, and see Xun'er as soon as possible."

The eldest wife glanced at Wang Xifeng. She was dissatisfied with this daughter-in-law in every possible way, but when Xun'er talked about marriage, the first wife was weak, and there was no way to compete with the second wife. She married Prince Teng, the most promising of the four families, and her marriage to the Wang family cannot be stopped by her opposition.

She was dissatisfied in the first place, but Wang Xifeng was following the second relative and ignoring her parents-in-law, which made her even more displeased.

Jia Xun hurried on the road, got off the boat, threw off the large army, and went back to the mansion first.Jia Xun walked fast, and returned to the capital one step earlier than the people who sent the news to the government. The Jia family has not received any news from Yangzhou, but they only know that the emperor ordered Lin Ruhai to retire, and a son of the Cui family in Yangzhou will take over as the inspector. The duties of the censor.

When Lin Ruhai became an official, Mrs. Jia and Mrs. Jia thought the same as Jia Xun at the beginning. After the handover of government affairs is over, the tea is cold. something.

The Jia family has always had no secrets. What the masters said, within an hour, everyone in the Jia family will know. How much property do you have, even if you deal with it roughly, you have to write the date. I didn't expect to come back now, and I didn't get the news in advance that I would come back. He was muttering, could it be that something unexpected happened to the Lin family.

Jia Baoyu stood excitedly at the door and looked forward to it. After Jia Xun's figure appeared in his line of sight, Jia Baoyu's excited little face turned red. Sister Lin had been away for so long, and he missed Sister Lin very much. He has no energy, and making rouge can't make him happy (who are you, the one who eats the rouge on the little maid's mouth, eats it so happily, isn't it you).

"Baoyu, what are you doing standing here? Are you here to welcome my brother?" Jia Xun approached and saw Jia Baoyu standing on tiptoe looking behind him, so he naturally knew what the phoenix egg in the mansion was looking at. It's a pity, he can't see the younger sister Lin in his heart.

Jia Baoyu didn't have time to talk to Second Brother Xun, he tried his best to look back, but there was nothing, then he eagerly grabbed Jia Xun's sleeve, "Second Brother Xun, sister Lin, isn't she walking with you?" Why didn't you come back with you, where did you leave Sister Lin, where is Sister Lin?"

Jia's mother was still calm when she was waiting indoors, but when Baoyu's anxious voice came, she couldn't keep her composure, and asked "Help me out".

Yuanyang carefully supported Jia Mu and walked out, and the rest of the people followed. A group of women walked towards the door in a magnificent manner.

The little maid opened the curtain, and Mother Jia came out first, "Xun'er, what's the situation, didn't I explain well when you left, how did you take sister Lin away, and how did you bring it back to me?" Mother Jia Looking back, not only was there no Daiyu, but there were no servants who followed south, "What happened, why did you come back by yourself?"

"Grandson has met grandma. It's a long story about going to Yangzhou. Let's go in and talk about it in detail."

Jia's mother has gone through many storms in her life, and the panic just now was only because Baoyu was involved. When she came out to see Baoyu, she had nothing to do, but she was unhappy because she didn't see Yu'er.

A group of people, led by Mother Jia, turned around and went back to the room. After everyone sat down in order of status, Jia Xun told the story of Yangzhou.

After finishing speaking, everyone looked at Jia Mu. Jia Mu was the most authoritative person in the Jia family. Besides, the Jia family only had the status of Jia Mu, which might have some effect on what Lin Ruhai did. Others, regardless of their status, In terms of experience, I have no say in this matter.

Mother Jia pondered for a while, "Xun'er, are you sure it's the Gusu Lin family?"

"That's right, it's indeed the Lin family in Gusu. My grandson also asked people to go to Gusu to investigate the news, but nothing useful was found. I just heard that the master of the Lin family in Gusu has not been in the house for many years. My grandson thinks that May be a liar to both sexes”

Mother Jia shook her head, and said with certainty, "Your Uncle Lin's family and the ancestors of the Gusu Lin family are really of the same family, but the Gusu Lin family has ancestors who taught them not to be official, and your uncle Lin's ancestors and the holy grandfather fought the world. They just branched out from the Gusu Lin family, and the Hezong came out, so the two of them must be from the Gusu Lin family, and with your uncle Lin's shrewdness, he can't make a mistake."

For various reasons, it was the Lin family's idea. The young ones were fine, and the older ones were silent. Jia Xun didn't know about the Gusu Lin family, but they did, especially the first wife and the second wife. The young lady of the Zhang family, Qing Zhi who later married into the Gusu Lin family was no stranger to her.

These young ladies, although they live a prosperous life, there are all kinds of unsatisfactory things in their lives. Compared with them, that Zhang Qingzhi is really all kinds of happy, leaving them only room for envy, jealousy and hatred.

At the age when they are going to get married, they all secretly pay attention to where their acquaintances will marry in the end. Women have two chances to reincarnate in this life. The first time they have no way to make a choice, but the second time they get married, they Although I don't have much right to choose, my parents will still consider their opinions to some extent. Although there are not many, it is good to consider a little bit.

There are only those who are high-ranking and noble families. There is also competition among girls of the same age. At that time, Zhang Qingzhi was the opponent they wanted to avoid the most. They thought that even if Zhang Qingzhi did not enter the royal family, he would become the clan. The concubine or something, this conjecture made them curse her in private.

In the end, none of them expected that Zhang Qingzhi would marry a man who had no office or job, and hadn't even passed the exam for a scholar. When the news came out, they were all very excited. They didn't know about the Gusu Lin family before. , because Zhang Qingzhi and the others asked the servants to inquire carefully, and the more news they got, the excitement that they were originally excited gradually fell to the bottom. Why is the background of the Lin family in Gusu so strong? Why is there such a man in the Lin family? Only when you have no heirs at thirty can you accept concubine rules. As a woman, who doesn't want to be a couple for a lifetime, who doesn't want a husband to only have one wife, who doesn't want to have only one woman in the backyard of their own house, who doesn't want...

That Zhang Qingzhi was raised by the Zhang family very carefully since she was a child, and there are two nuns who came out of the palace by her side. She must be in good health, and the backyard of the Zhang family is very clean. Zhang Qingzhi has never encountered any black hands. It is absolutely no problem for the legitimate son to give birth to an heir before the age of 30. It is not obvious that Zhang Qingzhi can enjoy the life of a couple for a lifetime.

Because of Zhang Qingzhi's existence, they knew quite well about the Gusu Lin family. Although they married each other later, Zhang Qingzhi went to Gusu with her husband's family, and they were far away from their social circle, and they never paid attention to Zhang Qingzhi's again. It's gone, but I still remember what I checked at the beginning.

Now the old lady is sure that it is from the Gusu Lin family, that's right. They know the strength of the Gusu Lin family and the Zhang family to some extent. It can't be as simple as they thought at first.

Jia Baoyu endured listening to Jia Xun's words, just wanting to know about Sister Lin's situation. After listening, she knew that Sister Lin would not come back, and she was going to Gusu, Lin My sister is going to leave him, and my sister Lin doesn't want him anymore...

Sister Lin was leaving and not coming back, which was a big blow to Jia Baoyu. When he came to his senses, Jia's mother had already thought of another way. With the Zhang family, Lin Ruhai's property is not so easy to make up his mind. If this way doesn't work, then go another way.

Mother Jia still firmly believed that Lin Ruhai had few days left to live. Miner was her most beloved daughter. When she was young, she sent her a letter, which said that Lin Ruhai had few years to live, and asked her mother to take good care of Yu'er after Lin Ruhai left.

Lin Ruhai was gone, and Yuer went to Gusu with her unfamiliar uncle and aunt. As a grandmother, she was worried that her granddaughter would have to adapt to the new environment in the grief of losing her father. It was normal to worry. Going to be Yu'er's company makes perfect sense.

The eldest son of the Lin family in Gusu seems to be fifteen or sixteen years old. Mother Jia looked at Yingchun Tanchun and Xichun lovingly. Xichun was young and cold-tempered, so she let it go. Although Yingchun was dull, she couldn't stop her from growing up. Dignified and generous at first glance, she looks like the mistress of the house, and her chess skills are excellent. In the eyes of people she likes, her dull temperament can be regarded as gentle and restrained. Besides, Yingchun is Jia She's daughter, so her status will be better after all.

Compared with Yingchun, Jia's mother actually prefers Tanchun. Tanchun has a refreshing and generous temper. minions.

The heirs of the Lin family in Gusu have always been in poor health. This is the only bad thing that the ladies in the capital found when Zhang Qingzhi married into the Lin family. Mother Jia also knew this. The heirs of the Lin family were in poor health. Yingchun and Tanchun, as concubine daughters of the Duke's Mansion, were allocated to the Lin family's boys, so it was not wronged him.

At that time, the boy from the Lin family married the girl from her Jia family, and the two jade children had achieved good things. After that, the Lin family was still in the hands of her Jia family. The Lin family in Gusu had been passed down for hundreds of years. I don't know how much more property I will have. Thinking about it this way, this matter may not be sure in the end, but it will become a good thing.

Mother Jia decided to send both Yingchun and Tanchun to Gusu, "Xun'er, the decision made by your uncle Lin is after all the Lin family's own business. Although our two families are related by marriage, it is not easy to manage their family affairs. But your Uncle Lin is not in good health, and your sister Lin is there by herself. I don’t worry. You can rest at home for two days before going south again. Take Yingchun and Tanchun with you. If something goes wrong, Yu’er has a good relationship with her. My sister is with me, so I can rest assured."

When Jiamu said this, the smart people in the room used their brains a little and understood what Jiamu meant. Everyone smiled and responded to Jiamu, and they all said they were caring in the name of loving Lin Daiyu. If he said that, what he was thinking about was how to get money from the Lin family.

Both Yingchun and Tanchun are smart, so they naturally understood what grandma meant. They had no objection to this arrangement. The Gusu Lin family knew that it was not easy after hearing what grandma said. Seeing that the eldest wife and second wife were listening When I arrived at the Lin family in Gusu, I knew it was a good one with the envious and jealousy on my face. If it wasn't for Sister Lin, how could my grandmother think of them.

Jia Baoyu heard this when he came back to his senses, and immediately started crying, "I want sister Lin, grandma, I want sister Lin, why didn't sister Lin come back, now you have to send the second and third sisters away, I don’t want grandma, I want my sisters to stay with me happily, why send them all away, grandma, I want sister Lin, I want sister Lin……”

The entire Jia family circled around Jia Baoyu, teasing Jia Baoyu who was making a fuss, but the departure of Sister Lin was a big deal for Jia Baoyu, and it was useless to coax her into such a big deal. In the end, the second wife said, "" Your father is here, and you still look like this, be careful that I beat you", Jia Baoyu instantly calmed down.

The Jia family’s turmoil has nothing to do with the Lin family. The handover of the Xunyan Yushi’s government affairs is very fast. This is not due to Lin Ruhai’s credit, but the Cui family’s replacement is very fast. Xunyan Yushi is a fat job. The Cui family moved up and down. Yangzhou was originally the base camp of the Cui family, and the superior and subordinate were all old acquaintances, so there was no need to make any connections. The handover was completed within a few days.

Jia Xun's side hadn't set off from the capital yet, but the Lin family had already packed up everything and set off for Gusu.
