Red Mansion: No Empty House Fight

As soon as the order of the presents came out, Wang Xifeng and Xing were very satisfied, but Jia Shi and Wang were dissatisfied - her precious jade was only one more new inkstone than that little woman Jia Cong had!

"Could it be that my nephew sent the wrong gift?" Wang asked impatiently and stupidly.Jia Shishi also gave a deep "hmm", expressing his agreement with Wang's idea that "the assignment was wrong".

Lin Qi had a puzzled expression again: "Second brother Lian, as the heir of the eldest uncle, is naturally of high character, and the same is true for nephew Lan'er as an heir. The second brother Bao is the second-in-law's second son, so naturally he is very important. After that, it will naturally be the first uncle's cousin Cong and the second uncle's cousin Huan."

This is the first time in so many years that someone has rearranged the order of the male members of the Jia family according to the universal concept.Jia Baoyu is not the No.1 of the government at all, but the third—although Jia Shi and Wang think that Baoyu is the one with great fortune, but in the eyes of the world, Jia Lian is the heir of the government—this fact Now that Lin Qi used "etiquette" to put them in front of everyone, Jia Shishi and Wang felt as if they had been slapped a few times.

The Rongqing Hall fell silent for a moment.Only at this time, Sanchun entered the room one after another, Wang Xifeng changed the topic, and introduced Lin Qi, Daiyu and Sanchun to salute each other.After saluting and deciding on the titles of sisters and sisters, Daiyu sorted out the gifts for Sanchun and handed them to the maids behind Sanchun respectively.The most valuable one is for Xichun, who is the sister of the patriarch and a direct descendant, then for Yingchun, and lastly for Tanchun.

This time, the Wang family is on fire.I couldn't help but held the Buddhist beads and recited the Buddhist scriptures several times, and finally opened my eyes and asked, "Have you ever released the monthly money?"

Lin Qi signaled Daiyu to continue to exchange feelings with Sanchun, but she also nodded and looked at no evil, only looking at Wang Xifeng and the other three middle-aged and elderly women.When Mrs. Wang said, "Is there any? It doesn't matter. You should take out two and cut clothes for your younger siblings."

Lin Qi quickly got up and bowed to the end: "Don't dare to bother the second aunt! My sister and I are in the filial piety, we must abide by the filial piety in food and clothing, and we must abide by the filial piety rules in clothing, shoes and hats. We are different from sisters and brothers. .Under many considerations, if it is taken out casually, it may hinder filial piety, so the second aunt and Lian's second sister-in-law don't bother."

"Very true." Although Jia Shishi was dissatisfied because Lin Qi's gift distribution neglected Baoyu, but he thought maybe he didn't know that Baoyu was her best friend?Therefore, most of the anger disappeared.Now hearing that Mrs. Wang gave Lin Qi Daiyu a blow, I feel unhappy.Naturally following Lin Qi's words of filial piety, she nodded affirmatively, and said to Wang Xifeng, "Parents' love is not enough to repay with life. Your cousin is a filial man! You and Yuanyang go to my storehouse to get reed silk. At that time, the ones that the Empress Dowager rewarded were the most plain and clean, and they were useless in ordinary times, so I made plain clothes for your cousins, which is also my mother's wish."

Lin Qi curled her lips inwardly - in the end, she was favored by someone with useless things, how uncomfortable!

Then he went out of Rongqing hall with Xing and Wang, and went to see Jia Amnesty with Xing.Then I went to see Jia Zheng again.In Rongxi Hall, Mrs. Wang told Daiyu and Lin Qi the words of "the devil king of the world" again.Before Daiyu could reply, Lin Qi got up and saluted: "Why didn't Second Aunt ask the imperial doctor to cure my cousin's dementia? You must know that loving a son is like killing a child! Second Aunt should not hide his illness and avoid medical treatment just because he can't see his cousin suffering!"

Later, I saw Mrs. Wang's face flushed with anger, and she seemed to have suddenly realized, "Could it be that the second uncle felt that his grade was not enough, so he didn't let the second aunt ask for an imperial doctor? It wasn't the nephew talking about it. People like us don't need it." So careful. The second uncle should not underestimate himself. After all, the eldest uncle is a first-rank General Weiyuan. As his younger brother, it is all right to ask the imperial physician to help heal his cousin, as long as no one knows. The imperial physicians are all masters with outstanding medical ethics. Or, I will definitely not tell outsiders about my cousin's bad brain."

Wang was so angry that she wished she could scratch Lin Qi's delicate face!Her precious jade is of great fortune!How did you become out of your mind?Why can't you see the imperial doctor openly?But everything Lin Qi said made sense.Wang suffocated, but didn't know how to refute.Could it be telling Lin Qi that the most important person in the family is her Baoyu, and the old lady also regards Baoyu as the heir of the Hou family, and that Baoyu's girl can see the imperial doctor when she is sick?

Although Wang Shi is a back house girl, she has been with Jia Shi Shi for decades, and she knows more or less that if she really said that, it would be their second wife's big mistake to spread the word!Don't talk about planning public property and titles for Baoyu, even Jia Zheng might lose his official position because of this!

"The old lady passed on the meal! Please go madam and Uncle Lin, Miss Lin!" Just as Wang was lucky, a girl came in here to pass on the message.

Lin Qi immediately said to Daiyu: "Since the old matriarch has passed on the meal, there is no reason for the younger generation to keep the elders waiting. Let's go back to the old matriarch immediately! The second aunt, nephew, and niece first go to the Rongqing hall to wait." Second aunt!"

After leaving the Rongxi Hall and walking towards the Rongqing Hall, Lin Qi said to Daiyu: "Sister, did you hear that? This cousin Baoyu has a brain problem. My sister just needs to be reserved and not speak out." I heard that if such a person is stimulated by that sentence, he will go crazy!"

"Uncle Lin said that Baoyu's temper is the best. He usually responds to this daughter's request!" As it was getting late, there was a second-class girl in Jiamu's room to guide the two of them.Hearing Lin Qi say that about Jia's baby, she was naturally unhappy.His tone was full of contempt like "you idiot who hasn't met your master".

Lin Qi acted as if she didn't hear it, she held back Daiyu who was about to open her mouth to reprimand, and said softly: "Which respectable master personally quarreled with an unruly girl? It's just a loss of etiquette. "

Because Daiyu is accompanied by maids and nuns and protected by Lin Qi, she is naturally not as trembling as in the original book, "paying attention to every step, always caring, not willing to say a word easily, or take an extra step".But she still listened to what Lin Qi said, so she naturally eased her expression, and pretended not to listen like Lin Qi.It's just that the second-class girl who carried the lamp listened to Lin Qi's words for real, and blushed so embarrassingly annoyed.

After everyone had finished their dinner, Mother Jia expressed her condolences again: "Did you use the dinner well? I see that your brother and sister don't use much?"

"Of course the food at the old lady's place is good. As for my brother and sister," Lin Qi stood up and saluted, and replied respectfully, "One is because my two tastes tend to be in the south, and the food at the old lady's place is a bit heavier. "What's more, the two of us are still in filial piety, so there are naturally many delicacies that cannot be eaten, and the only meal we had just now was the vegetable oil and vegetables."

When Jia Shishi heard it, he froze.That's right, why did she forget that these two people are going to be filial and vegetarian?The second child's family didn't even remind me!This kid from the Lin family was also taught to be stupid by Lin Hai, so why did he say "you didn't treat him well" so carelessly?She didn't expect that she really didn't treat her well, but she blamed Lin Qi for being a vegetarian instead of meat.

"Therefore, the boy thought, should we set up a small kitchen in the yard of my brother and sister, and the servants of my family will be responsible for all the purchases, so as to save the old lady from being kind and accommodating us two juniors. taboo." Seeing Jia Shishi's complexion, Lin Qi began to say something like "I'm clumsy and can't express, but I'm filial and don't want to trouble you old man", "My brother and sister are originally I hope that I can be filial on behalf of my mother, how can the old lady change her taste? Isn't this a big disfilial piety!"

eat eat eat!Eat heavy oil and salt!Hypertension and heart disease come!Lin Qi thought so in her heart, and set up a small trap in her words, hoping that the old lady Jia would realize that Daiyu was inconvenient because of keeping a filial piety, and then allocate a yard for the two of them instead of arranging them in the Bisha cabinet. inside!

Jia Shishi looked at Lin Qi and Daiyu with the expressions of "you can't let the old lady accommodate the younger generation" looking at herself, and she also turned a few corners in her heart.After weighing the pros and cons, he still opened his mouth: "That's right, let's set up a small kitchen in your yard! Your brother and sister will live in... Pear Fragrance Courtyard! Pear Fragrance Courtyard has a front and back office, and a street The door is just convenient for you."

The mother of Jia's words came to the fore, and the brothers and sisters' residence was settled. Naturally, Madam Wang led Wang Xifeng and Li Wan to Zhang Luo, leaving the Lin family and Sanchun joking.

After talking a few words, I heard Mother Jia ask Daiyu what books she had read.Daiyu said, "I have only read four books."But Lin Qi interjected: "Sister, don't be modest! You don't know the old lady, but what my sister said about 'only read' is not true. My sister has read it through several times! The girl from our Lin family, in the In terms of upbringing, it’s like a man’s, and he also needs to learn all the four books and five classics. But women’s reds, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are not as good, they only know a little bit, and cultivate their temperament.”

He also said, "For a family like ours, there are no white people. If it is really like a small family who only works hard on the trails, it will lose the demeanor of the aristocratic family."

After hearing Lin Qi's words, Sanchun and Jia Shishi's expressions changed a little.It's just that Lin Qi and Daiyu's eyes met, and they staggered again.

If Daiyu's seven-aperture exquisite mind is cultivated more, she will definitely not just stick to poetry.What Lin Qi said now is to prevent Daiyu from reading useful books because of Jia Shishi's later evaluation of Sanchun's "knowing a few words and not being blind", but instead being entangled in love and unable to extricate herself. "Once the spring is over, the beauty will grow old, and the flower will fall and the person will die." Although it is beautiful, it is too sad.

Although these are just Lin Qi's selfish intentions, it will be seen in the future how the effect will be.
