[Red Mansion] Raiders of the heir

A few more days passed in a flash, and it was said that Lin Wei got up early in the morning and took Shu Yun to greet Lin Hai and his wife as usual. When he walked outside the study, he heard that Lin Hai had gone out early in the morning, so he turned around Go to see Jia Min in the inner house.

Dongmei, the big girl next to Jia Min, was teaching some little girls how to pinch flowers under the eaves. Seeing Lin Wei approaching, she got up and said, "I've seen Young Master Wei, but it's early today."

Lin smiled and asked, "What is your wife doing?"

Dongmei said: "I'm chatting with Aunt Fang, Master Wei just go in."

After all, Jia Min's health recovered. When Lin Wei saw her sitting in the main room, the one sitting next to her was a well-dressed woman, casually kneading melon seeds, her eyes looking forward to Shenghua, thinking about it. It was Aunt Fang, and she said in a clear voice: "We'll just let it go, Ma'am is not in good health, I don't think the master is happy these days, how many times will he not come here? He hasn't even raised his eyebrows... Hey, is this Brother Wei? He looks so handsome, but he's a little thinner."

Lin Wei glanced at her with dark eyes. He was critical of her when they met for the first time, and his heart was already displeased, so he kept his face calm and bowed to Jia Min and said: "Wei'er has seen Auntie, see her today. It looks good to see my aunt."

Jia Min smiled slightly and said: "The past two days have been much better. I saw that the weather today is not bad. I was thinking of asking your sister to accompany me for a walk in the garden. It just so happens that you come over. Let's chat for a while, let's have breakfast with my aunt in a while. I got two high-quality brocades a while ago. Thinking of your filial piety, I picked out a plain one to make you a shirt. Give it a try after dinner, it’s time to go to school tomorrow.”

After hearing this, Lin Wei quickly thanked her.

Then Jia Min turned to the woman beside him and said, "This is brother Wei, who comes here every day, and you haven't seen him since you came here for the past two days. His body is also just right, isn't it three or five It can be made up in a day, but the child is very angry, and it will be recuperated in a year or two." At this point, he turned his eyes to Lin Wei and said, "Your sister has been weak since she was young, and the wife of the prefect of Yang I just brought a food tonic medicinal diet recipe. I asked someone to read it, which is very good. I was thinking of sending one to each of you. Make soup and drink it once a day, and it won’t make you too much. It’s good for you guys The child's health is the best, and you just took it back with you. After two days, you will have to work hard when you go to school, and you don't need to come here every day to set rules. Our own family doesn't need to do these empty-headed things. It seems that your uncle is not a person who loves those things, and my aunt will ask someone to tell you if something happens, just study hard and have a good future in the future, that is all your heart for uncle and aunt."

After hearing this, Lin Wei said: "So, Wei'er, I would like to thank Auntie for your compassion."

Aunt Fang saw that their mother and son were just talking and joking, but they didn't pay attention to her, even Lin Wei didn't greet her, so she stopped attracting attention, got up and said goodbye, and went into the apartment on the west side.

Lin Wei raised her eyes and watched her leave coldly, but Lin Daiyu walked in like stepping on a little bit, greeted Jia Min and smiled at Lin: "It's really early for you today."

Seeing Daiyu, Jia Min's expression suddenly softened, she talked and laughed by her side for a while, and the three of them had dinner together before Lin Wei left, and the mother and daughter went to enjoy the flowers without mentioning it.

Jia Min has always been lukewarm towards Lin Wei, and there is a lot of alienation inside, but on the surface he maintains the appearance of being the mistress of the house. He always pays for food and clothing according to the rules, and usually doesn't ask much. This is in front of outsiders, so I just remembered to pretend.However, Lin Wei knew it well, but he didn't care too much about it. Lin Hai was already determined to recognize him, and now he asked his husband to let him study, and he was very good to his nephew who had never met. He doesn't take heat and cold in his heart, but he gets closer when he's better, and stays away when he's cold.

What's more, Jia Min has always had no children, so it's hard to say that looking at Lin Wei makes him feel bad, and Lin Hai treats him with all his heart, just treating him like his own, and I'm afraid it will make anyone feel uncomfortable.Lin Wei felt that since Jia Min said so, he can come here once every two days, which is not too much. Besides, Jia Min is not in good health and needs to rest. Makes sense.

It was already late for Lin Wei to return to the outer courtyard. As soon as he walked to the eaves of the east chamber, he saw the housekeeper Lin Zhong coming with a few maidservants, and smiled at him: "Master Wei, the house in the west courtyard has already been tidied up." When you come out, everything you need is ready. Before you go out, the master specially told you to move there today while the weather is good. I personally picked out a few of them to serve the young master, as well as the servants. They are all chosen, and they are all in the yard over there, and they will come over in a while, but I don’t know if it’s right for the young master’s temper, if you think it’s useless for two days, just explain to me and then pick a better one.”

Lin Wei looked at several girls one by one, but they were all smart and steady, and said: "Thank you, Uncle Lin, for your trouble, since that's the case, I'll go back and pack up and move there earlier. When will Uncle come back?"

"I'm afraid it will be past noon." Lin Zhongdao, "Master said he was going to see an important person today, so he got up early and left the door, and told me to tell the young master not to go out today if there is nothing important. If you come back in the afternoon, someone will call you."

Lin Wei listened and thought for a while, then nodded and said: "In that case, I'll wait in the study. If uncle calls me, you just have to ask someone to find me there."

Lin Wei returned to the courtyard with a dozen girls, big and small, and the servants assigned to him had also arrived. Lin Wei only stayed for a few days, and there was nothing to tidy up, only the few clothes he was wearing. After making the package, he took people to Xikuan courtyard.Thinking that since Lin Hai had personally ordered, and said he was meeting guests outside, he might have found Mr., so he asked Shu Yun to bring back the clothes that Jia Min had rewarded him with, and watched a group of people rushing in. Busy to tidy up and distribute the room, he went outside and called a group of servants to him.

Lin Wei looked over one by one, but he was happy when his eyes fell on a tall boy, who was the one who gave him instructions on how to get to the prefect's yamen when he came that day, so he asked, "What's your name?"

The young man also recognized Lin Wei, his expression was a little stunned, and then he said with a smile: "The young one's name is Chang'an."

Lin Wei pointed to another one next to Chang'an who was slightly lower, but was very neat, nodded and said: "Just you two, you two come with me first."

At this time, there is nothing to entertain, Lin Wei can only soak in Lin Hai's study every day to search for some rare books to read, the three of them walked all the way to Lin Hai's outer study, and asked the other boy: "What's your name?" ?”

"The little one just entered the mansion not long ago, but now I'm just a handyman. When I'm at home, I'm always called Zhuzi. If the young master sees that the little one is still in control, then give the little one a name." The boy said.

newcomer?Lin Wei looked back at him carefully, but he looked steady. After thinking for a while, he said, "In that case, you can call him Jiangnan. From now on, you two will follow me first."

Lin Wei took Chang'an and Jiangnan to the study for half a day to spend some time in peace and quiet. It wasn't until more than an hour after lunch, when the sun gradually turned away, that someone said that the master was back and asked him to come over.

Lin Wei straightened up and loosened his body. When he came out to meet Chang'an and Jiangnan, he was also getting ready. After looking at the two of them for a while, he asked, "Come and see, is your body in order?"

The two were stunned for a moment, they didn't expect Lin Wei to ask such a question, so they came over and pretended to straighten his collar and straighten his skirt, Jiang Nan said: "It's very neat, just go ahead."

Lin Wei came outside the main hall, and through the curtain, he heard someone talking and laughing inside, when the boy at the door saw him, he hurriedly opened the curtain and said loudly: "Master Wei is here."

Lin Wei entered the door and didn't look at it carelessly, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw a young man drinking tea sitting on the guest seat, so he went to Lin Hai to greet him, Lin Hai nodded and said, "Wei'er, I went to see Mr. "

Sure enough.

Lin Wei turned around and walked in front of that person, then raised her head, but was stunned for a moment.

The person in front of him is dressed in a moon-white robe, with a sandalwood dark embroidered fringe jade belt around his waist, and a sapphire jade pendant with double dragons playing beads on his waist. The demeanor is elegant and noble.

The man raised his eyes leisurely, raised a corner of his lips at Lin Wei, and smiled lazily.

Lin Wei only felt his teeth go cold for a while, forced himself to salute him respectfully calmly, bowed and said, "Lin Wei pays homage to Mr.

The man didn't answer, and after Lin Wei paused for a few breaths, Fang Xu raised his hand, and said in a cold voice: "Okay, raise your head to show the gentleman, um, it looks like he's promising. Your uncle said you just Those who have studied the Enlightenment and the Four Books and Five Classics have never read it, so I will simply test you and memorize the "Disciple Regulations" first."

Lin Hai: "..."

Lin Hai never thought that he would invite this master here, but he thought that Lin Wei was not too young and could not wait too long. In the past few days, he asked many questions and asked his good friends to look for him together, thinking about what to do. If you ask too many people, you will be able to meet the right one.Unexpectedly, the magistrate Yang told him a few days ago that this master was very interested in recommending himself to come when he heard about it by accident. Naturally, the two of them didn't dare to say anything. Lin Hai offered a heavy gift early in the morning Went to the magistrate's mansion.

Lin Hai felt that the reason why this master recommended himself was because he had passed the test anyway, so he said that although Lin Wei hadn't studied the Four Books and Five Classics, he was still good at enlightenment. Since he came to Yangzhou, he rarely went out. Drilling in the study.Thinking of saying it nicely, at least he lured people in first, opportunities are hard to come by, at this time Lin Wei let him down in his homework, seeing that he was clever and Minhui couldn't tell, so he agreed vaguely.

But who is this?

That is, when he was in Gusu earlier, he bumped into a man full of arms with Lin Wei on the street - the uncle of the current emperor, Prince Rui Tuyan, nicknamed Qinghe.

Although this disciple Yan is just in his early twenties, his reputation in the court is not very good, his temper is lazy and soft, he doesn't eat oil and salt, not to mention that even the emperor will take him as a headache.However, this person has one advantage. He is full of economics and talents, especially those who are incompetent in astronomy and geography.Japanese pirates have been rampant along the coast of Fujian since the emperor took the throne. The local soldiers and civilians have been fighting against them for more than 20 years. Attacks and retreats come again. It really made the ruler's brains really troubled. They didn't let them go until two years before the emperor abdicated. Yan went over, and the biggest present that the lord gave today was two Japanese pirate islands, which can be said to be the court hall on the battlefield.

Lin Hai felt that he should lure Tu Yan to ask something else, just coughed and wanted to make a fuss, but Lin Wei's slightly immature voice rang out: "Disciple rules, sages' instruction, first filial piety , second time I believe..."

Lin Wei recited it silently while secretly getting lucky. Fortunately, it was the "Disciple Regulations". If he were to be asked to recite hundreds of surnames, he would probably be overwhelmed this time.

Lin Wei recited it all in one breath, and when he stopped, needles could be heard in the hall. Both of them knew his details. Tu Yan remembered that the enmity was deliberately provoked, but he never thought that he was actually fell silent.

There was a slight look of astonishment on Tu Yan's face. He glanced at Lin Hai and saw that he was also in a daze, so he said vaguely: "I remember clearly, maybe I can explain something?"

Such a narrow-minded gentleman, but he doesn't know how he will live in the future, but Lin Wei doesn't know the details of this person, and Lin Hai treats him so respectfully, so he went to invite him to sit in the restaurant early in the morning, thinking that he can't because of that He pushed away some trivial matters, and made Lin Hai look at him in a biased way.So he had no choice but to lick his dry lips again, and tried to explain it in plain language, before he was finally let go.

Tu Yan nodded, and smiled at Lin Hai with satisfaction: "The explanation is good, brother Ru Hai taught well."

Lin Hai heaved a sigh of relief, knowing that this was his answer, he smiled and said, "I'm ashamed, I don't dare to take it seriously, Wei'er has only been in the house for a few days, and there is no leisure in the yamen, I never instructed him, but let him read the book by himself." That's all."

Lin Wei looked at Tu Yan secretly, and always felt that this person was coming for him, but he had no property, and his house was bare, so there was really nothing worth thinking about.And this person followed him all the way from Gusu to Weiyang, and still found Lin Hai's mansion, which is really frightening.Seeing that he is dressed in brocade clothes, what are you thinking about him?

Tu Yan casually asked Lin Wei a few more questions, then waved him graciously to tell him to step down, and said: "Get up early tomorrow, and study with me from now on, after a few years, I will take the exam again." Come out, and your family can be regarded as a noble family."

These words were really unreasonable, Lin Wei secretly went to look at Lin Hai, seeing that he had no response, so she bowed to warn him and retreated, so far she was full of suspicion.I'm afraid this person's identity is not simple, Lin Hai is an important minister in the court, and he has no scruples in his tone, he is so arrogant at such a young age, he must be rich or noble, I am afraid that no one will be able to make decisions for him in the future. The good times are really coming to an end.

Lin Wei felt that he was really cheap that day, so he provoked him, and made it all come to him, so he wouldn't be held responsible in the future, right?In fact...it's okay to be responsible, when he grows up, it will be easier to tune = teach = teach...
