[Red House] But for the sake of the king

Since returning to the palace, Jun Qi has no time to relax.Immediately after that came the Spring Festival and the Palace Examination, and then the Supreme Emperor's [-]th birthday. From time to time, there was news from the south that a group of officials would also be replaced.Coupled with the open and secret struggle between Concubine Zhen and Concubine Shu in the harem, if it wasn't for the empress who could suppress it, it would have been a shame.Jun Qi heard that Lin Ruhai's eye disease was getting better, and seeing that he was fine when he went to court, he felt relieved and concentrated on dealing with this mess.

Lin Ruhai felt much more relaxed. He rested at home for more than half a month, coaxing his daughter to be happy.There were not many things to do when I went to the Yamen, and I knew that it was Jun Qi's intention, so I didn't try to be brave.Although his eyes are mostly healed, according to the imperial doctor's opinion, he should not look too hard and have to keep them on all the time.

In August, it is the time when autumn is crisp and sweet osmanthus is fragrant.On this day, Tang took Daiyu and Lin Heng for a walk in their garden, not far away were a few maids who were carefully picking fresh sweet-scented osmanthus.Daiyu took Tang's hand and shouted excitedly, "Osmanthus, grandma, I have osmanthus cake to eat today."

Tang stopped in her tracks, "You little greedy cat, you know how to eat. Today there are not only sweet-scented osmanthus cakes, but also sweet-scented osmanthus rice balls, do you like them?"

Daiyu leaned on her and twisted a few times, "Grandmother is the best, and Yu'er likes Jiuniang Yuanzi the most. My younger brother likes it too."

Tang Corps didn't expose her, Heng'er has only grown a few teeth, can she bite into that sweet-scented osmanthus cake?

All of a sudden Qiushuang rushed over, "Old lady, there are people from Jia's family again. This time, Mrs. Jia sent two nuns here, and one of them is Nanny Lai who came back last time."

Tang's interest was disturbed, and she was also a little unhappy, so she pulled Daiyu back, "It's crazy, are you afraid that I will treat my granddaughter badly? It's really worrying, it's very annoying. Her birthday was a few days ago Didn’t you just let the child go there, what’s the matter this time?”

Qiu Shuang replied, "I didn't ask the maidservants in detail. Mother Lu is there to accompany you at the moment. It doesn't seem to be an important matter."

After returning to the courtyard for a while, someone brought in the two nuns, kowtowed to see the ceremony, and stood down to answer.

Nanny Lai's face was full of wrinkles, and she said with a smile, "Hello, my dear old lady, our old lady will bring you a baby. The weather is fine these few days, and the sweet-scented osmanthus and chrysanthemums are in full bloom in the yard, so our old lady thought about it." I had a good time with my juniors. It happened that several baskets of extremely fat crabs came up from the farm, so the old lady wanted to have a feast and have fun for a few days. The old lady in-laws also knew that our old lady likes lively things the most, so Thinking that it would be very boring for the cousin girl to be alone at home, so I asked the old slave to pick up the cousin girl, so that I could have fun with all the sisters. After a few days until the Mid-Autumn Festival, I will send the cousin girl back."

Tang smiled and said, "The old ladies in the car are all dizzy because of you. You old ladies will enjoy it, surrounded by a bunch of grandchildren, which is much more lively than mine. If you want to talk about flowers and crabs, who knows?" It’s not all the same, just to have fun. It’s just a coincidence that the Beijing Palace has posted a post in the next day, and the princess has said several times that she must see Yu’er. Therefore, if you stay for a few days longer Forget it, come back tomorrow."

Nanny Lai also said that this time it could not be done, and after listening to it, she realized that it was for sure, and she took the person there anyway, no matter how many days, the old lady would be happy.So busy thanking you, and flattering, "It can be seen that the cousin girl is loved by others, even the princess likes it. No one can compare to this blessing. All the girls in our family are not as good as the cousin girl." , no wonder the old lady loves her so much. Yesterday I heard such a thing in a daze, and the post from the Beiwang family is very rare."

Tang didn't pay any attention to her, these few words sounded awkward, and just ordered, "Chunyu, tell Xianyun and Feixing to bring some more clothes. The ones I made a few days ago looked okay, Don't leave it for nothing, you won't be able to wear it after this year anyway. And let Yu'er pick out the bedding by herself, don't bring any more unsuitable ones, and it's time to make a fuss about not going to sleep at night. Tell Nanny Ding to look carefully Look at Yu'er, don't eat whatever she wants, and pay attention to adding or removing clothes when it's cold or hot, it's easy to catch cold these days. Forget it, call them all over, and I'll give them instructions myself." After finishing speaking, he smiled at Nanny Lai, "Don't laugh at me, old man. I am only such a precious granddaughter. If she is not in front of me for two days, I will inevitably worry. She is still young now, and she doesn't know how to control others. She was bullied by that screwer so heartlessly, she must be beaten more."

Nanny Lai quickly apologized and said with a smile, "That's not the case. Our old lady keeps the girls together because she is afraid that they will be bullied by the slaves in their respective yards."

She was about to say something when someone came in, but it was Daiyu's nanny, Nanny Ding, and two big girls, Xianyun and Feixing.

Tang closed her smile, and said seriously, "You are all old people around Miss, and you know the rules of the house. I won't say anything else. Since you are visiting a relative's house, you must know that you can do whatever you want. , don’t lose face to the Lin family. The most important point is to take good care of the young lady. Don’t look at her when she’s not at home. You can mess around. There are a lot of people at home to help, so you have to be more careful outside. I will be careful when I come back Look, if Miss loses a hair, you don't have to keep it."

The three of them agreed, and went down to prepare bedding and clothes.When the preparations were finished, Daiyu greeted her and followed her out.There had been a small sedan chair waiting at the second gate, and it was carried all the way to the Yi gate.There were two emerald green chariots waiting outside for Jia's family, but now there was another emerald green chariot with Zhuying eight treasures, which was prepared by Tang's order.Nanny Lai was a little embarrassed, but Nanny Ding smiled and said that her lady had a lot of things, so the old lady asked her to prepare a car, which relieved a little embarrassment.

So Aunt Ding took Daiyu in her own car, two maids Xianyun and Feixing took one of Jia's cars, and Aunt Lai followed in another car and went to Jia's mansion up.

The one who came with Madam Lai was also a second-class nanny from Mother Jia's yard, and she couldn't help muttering when she got in the car, "Old sister, this old lady from the Lin family is really powerful, she is full of airs, and she has a straight face." It's even scarier than our old lady."

Nanny Lai glared at her, "What do you know, it's just for us to see, it's to let us not underestimate the cousin girl. Look at this car, how old is the cousin girl, even with a nanny The two maids couldn't sit down anymore, so they wanted to go in their own car. As you heard just now, the cousin girl has a lot of waiters at home. Before I saw the old lady of my relatives, I talked to that mother-in-law for a while. In other words, there are more people serving around Miss Biao than Baoyu. There are four maids in Everbright, and the two nurses are now only following one, and there are four other nurses who are the same as our girls. There are four second-class maids who are following me now, and they will be the maids of the girls in the future, not to mention the little maids who clean the house and serve as servants, this is enough."

The nanny was dumbfounded, "My darling, how come the rules of this Lin family are more strict than ours? I just saw that there is no one guarding their house, so I don't think there are many slaves."

Nanny Lai said, "It's the first time you've come back, so of course you don't know about it. Generally, the doorkeepers are in the side room, and the outside door is naturally guarded by a young man. I think they know that the cousin is going to come out." , I ran away. I came back and listened to it, and it seemed that the housekeeper was reprimanding me. After all, the aunt is the master of the book, and the rules of the house are different. Alas, my aunt is not so lucky, so she went early I don't know who will be so lucky to be the head of the Lin family in the future."

The nanny also sighed for a while, and stopped talking.

After finally arriving at Jia's house, Jia's mother was very happy when she saw Daiyu. She hugged Daiyu and rubbed her arms, saying, "My son, I miss my grandmother, but I look forward to you."

Daiyu used to be filial, and hadn't gone out for a long time, but in the past few months, she would visit Jia's house every few days. She was no stranger to Jia's mother, so although she felt a little uncomfortable, she still rubbed it with her.Grandma ordered that when you are a guest at someone else’s house, you can’t shake your face at will like when you are at home, you can’t lose your temper, you can’t cry, but you can’t hold back everything, and tell the nanny if you have anything.

Her face was finally let go, Daiyu rubbed her smiling face, and said softly, "I miss my grandmother, and my second and third sisters."

When Jia Mu saw her, she was like her daughter when she was a child. She wanted to put all the good things in front of her eyes. Now she heard her mention two sisters, so she hurriedly ordered someone to call them.

The three little girls were at the age of innocence, and soon after they met, they started chatting, and even Yingchun, who usually didn't talk much at home, laughed and talked.Glad to hear that, Jia Mu leaned on the couch and let them play, and told the nannies to take good care of people and not to bump into them.

Immediately afterwards, the people who went to the Shi's house also came back. Shi Xiangyun, dressed in bright red, ignored the shouts of the nurse and maid behind him, and ran all the way to Jiamu. "Ancestor, you remember Yun'er. My aunt doesn't let me go out recently, and I have nothing to do at home."

Jiamu was still smiling happily, but when she saw Xiangyun's clothes, she frowned.Because of her daughter's death, no one in her place would dare to wear red and green. Although Xiangyun has no parents, at least she still has an aunt.Shi Ding's family is not a fool, why did Xiangyun come here wearing a bright red suit. "Your aunt is pregnant now, you should be more considerate, don't make noise all day long. This time, I will stay here for a longer time, so as not to worry about your aunt when I go back. Your sister Lin and the others are playing in the back, you go too Bar."

When Xiangyun heard that he could stay for a few more days, he clapped his hands with joy.There are ancestors who love me here, and I have my brother and sister who love to play together, which is much more comfortable than at home.If possible, she really wanted to stay here and never go back.Anyway, uncle and aunt don't take her seriously, and now aunt is going to give birth to younger brothers and sisters again.The nanny said that if she behaved badly in the future, she might be kicked out by her aunt.It's better to stay here with grandparents.

At that moment, Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang brought Li Wan over, saying that the table in the garden was ready, and they invited the old lady to sit.Mother Jia smiled and walked out with the support of the two daughters-in-law, followed by four little guys and their nanny and maid, and a group of people went to the garden lively.

At the banquet, Jiamu sat in the main seat, with Daiyu and Xiangyun on the left and right.Once on the left are Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang, and on the right are sisters Yingchun and Tanchun.Li Wan alone stood by and waited on him.Jia's mother looked a bit ugly, "There are not many people, it's better to sit together. The family is friendly, so why sit separately."

Wang said with a smile, "It's my daughter-in-law who didn't think carefully. Do you want to change it now?"

Mother Jia waved her hand, "Forget it, it's nothing much to do, that's all. It's just that there's no noise, and it's boring."

Wang said, "It's my daughter-in-law who thought about it first. Thinking about how happy she is today, she invited two maids, and now I'm going to call them."

Mother Jia nodded, seeing Daiyu sitting on the sidelines and not eating, she brought her a piece of pastry herself.Shi Xiangyun on the side immediately pouted when she saw the little mouth. Since she met this sister Lin here last time, she knew that her grandparents were not good to her, and she really cared for this sister Lin. .The nanny said that Sister Lin was the granddaughter of the grandparents, so she was naturally closer.If she wants to walk here more, she can't offend Sister Lin.But Xiangyun was pampered since she was a child, how could she be willing to see only this elder sister Lin in the eyes of her ancestors who always loved her so much.Because it depends on Jia Mu, "Old Ancestor, why don't you see Brother Ai, he likes to eat this most, can Yun'er send it to him?"

Jia Mu laughed and said, "You're still caring and remember Baoyu. He caught the wind a few days ago and has some symptoms of a cold. He is resting. Don't make trouble with him. Eat yours."

Daiyu sniggered at the side, finally she didn't have to see this annoying person, and her grandmother even asked her to call her Brother Bao, which sounded so tiresome and disgusting to death.But grandma said, you must be polite at grandma's house, because she said, "The cold is the most uncomfortable. Yu'er has to drink medicine every time she catches a cold. It's so bitter. If grandma and cousin are also afraid of suffering, you should prepare more rock candy." ,sweet."

Jia Mu said a few words with a smile, and the hot crabs were brought up, and everyone ate without mentioning it.Only Shi Xiangyun rolled his eyes and thought of an idea.

Crabs are cold in nature, so Nanny Ding didn't dare to let Daiyu eat more, so she only got her a small half, picked out the meat and put it in a bowl, and added balsamic vinegar and shredded ginger.Daiyu took two bites, and accidentally bit a piece of ginger, which was so spicy that her nose was so hot, she refused to eat any more.I only need a bowl of crab porridge to drink, but I ate half a bowl with pickles.Daiyu has been eating less since she was a child. Lin Ruhai was worried that she would be the same as in her previous life, so she asked the nannies to try to coax her to eat more, but it didn't work.Later, it was Tang's idea to add two extra meals to her three meals a day, and let her have some soup, porridge or Yikehua pastry for an hour before and after lunch, so she wouldn't be afraid that she would be hungry.When she came back to Jia's house for the first time, Tang also specially instructed Nanny Ding not to mention anything else, don't be afraid to trouble her relatives with anything related to Daiyu.The Duke's family has great business and rules, so they are not afraid of such a little trouble, if there is anything you want to eat, just let her talk about it, and just give her some rewards.Therefore, Nanny Ding stopped persuading her to eat, and just watched carefully from the sidelines.

Over there, Shi Xiangyun suddenly jumped down, holding a crystal bag in his hand, "Sister Lin, this is delicious, here it is."

Nanny Ding didn't dare to let her own lady eat that, so she wanted to stop it, but she didn't expect that Shi Xiangyun's hand was so tired after holding it up for a long time, it drooped down, and knocked over the remaining half bowl of porridge.Daiyu's lotus-colored skirt was immediately dirty, but fortunately the porridge had cooled down and was not hot.

Shi Xiangyun immediately began to cry, "Sister Lin, Yuner didn't do it on purpose, woohoo, Sister Lin, Yuner was wrong."

Only now did Daiyu realize that she frowned her pretty thin eyebrows. She hated dirty things the most.Mother Jia hurriedly asked Nanny Ding to take Daiyu down to change her clothes, and coaxed Xiangyun a few more words.She could see it clearly, but Xiangyun was still young after all, and she wasn't her own child, so she couldn't tell.Fei Xing was a little annoyed when he saw it, and said angrily that he would tell the old lady to know, so that he should stop coming to Jia's house in the future.Every time I come back, there will be troubles. Finally, this time there is no Second Master Bao, and there is another Miss Shi.One or two always like to get close to their girls, if the porridge is not cold, or a cup of hot tea, what should I do?Xianyun said a few words to her. After all, she wasn't in the Lin family, so she was just talking too much.Fortunately, before coming here, Tang corps specially ordered to bring a few more sets of clothes, so he can change into them.

After crying once, Xiangyun obediently sat back beside Jiamu with red eyes, not daring to make another mistake.When Daiyu came out after changing her clothes, her elder sister came again, and her younger sister was short, so affectionate.Daiyu is not very familiar with her, so she has always been indifferent to her.Looking at it unknowingly, it seems that Daiyu is making a big show, showing Shi Xiangyun's face.Fortunately, both of them are still young, and no one has ever taken it seriously.They are all pampered and pampered young ladies, no one has any sense of temper.Compared to doing it the first time she saw Master Bao, Miss Lin is very gentle now, it's better not to speak than to do it.

Daiyu hides from Xiangyun, talks to Yingchun and her husband, and then pulls Li Wan to ask why her little nephew is missing.Although she is young, she also knows that the two are different generations, because she is very curious about this nephew.Li Wan said with a smile that Lan'er was still young, and she was afraid that she would not be able to stand the wind when she came out.Daiyu thinks about it, Lan'er is younger than Heng'er, probably can't run yet, so she doesn't mention it anymore.

At night, Daiyu and Xiangyun were supposed to sleep together. Just as Daiyu was about to say that she would go with her second sister, Jia Mu smiled and said that she wanted Daiyu to sleep with her, so that the grandparents and grandchildren could have a happy family.Both Daiyu and Xiangyun breathed a sigh of relief, and talked happily for a while before going to rest.

At lunch the next day, Mrs. Wang was serving Jia Mu. Zhou Rui's family came over and said that someone from the Wangfu had come and had something important to say.Jia Mu let her go first, leaving only Li Wan to serve here.After dinner, someone from the Lin family took Daiyu back.Jia's mother also knew about the post in the Northern Prince's Mansion, and it was not easy to keep him, so she let him go after a few instructions.

Nanny Ding's ears were sharp, and when she came out of Mother Jia's yard, she heard the two women guarding the gate say something like "Xue's family" and "something happened".It's just that I can't help but sigh, the wife in charge was called out, and the matter has already been publicized here. It can be seen that the imperial government is not strict, and the women are too talkative.

The author has something to say: Maybe after this chapter, someone will call me Hei Xiangyun again→_→I can only say that I try my best to describe a person who is not easy to rely on because he has no parents since he was a child. The little girl who rose up to "compete for favor".Children are the most innocent and unaffected. They don't go back and hide their desires. They eat when they want, sleep when they want, and they have a clear distinction between what they like and what they hate.Xiangyun grew up with his uncle's parents. Three or four-year-old children can look a little bit, but they are not as shrewd as adults, so there will be some behaviors that seem to be "scheming".
