The Lin family of the Red Chamber has a son

Now that the sixth prince has arrived, no matter how inappropriate Lin Yan feels, he can't just send him back.After thinking for a while, he told Mr. Le An that he was kind and greeted him, but he came out and told Ping An: "Go to Prince Zhongshun's mansion to see if the prince is there, if he is, please come over with your honor."

He turned around and came back, only to see Le An sitting in the hall drinking tea alone.

"Where is the sixth prince?"

Le'an put down the teacup, wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "Just now, I sent the three of them to play in Ruoge'er's yard ahead. The uncle didn't see us in front of us, so Xiao Liu'er restrained himself gone?"

Lin Yan's pretty eyebrows frowned slightly, "There are not many people serving Ruo'er, but can you send someone to serve?"

"Master, you're too careful." Basho handed over a small hand stove, and Le An took it, raising and lowering her two fair and slender hands, "I saw that the girls in Brother Ruo'er's room were very nervous." That's right. I just sent Bi Luo, who is next to the uncle, and Qing He, who is following me. My guards and guards are all in the mansion, so nothing can go wrong."

Lin Yan nodded, sat on the carved armchair on the left, and asked with a smile, "Is it comfortable to live in the other courtyard?"

"That's right, these days the living is comfortable, and the food is fresh. Let me tell you, there are fresh green vegetables to eat in our mansion in the winter. It's all from there."

"If the princess likes it, it's not worth anything to ask them to send more every day when you come back."

Le An couldn't help laughing happily, "Grandpa said this. Could it be that I'm a foodie? According to me, it's better to send more to my aunt. Her child has only been born for a hundred days and there are not many days, and now the adults are too. Keep it. The blind bird’s nest ginseng soup is not good.”

Because it was the end of the year, the housekeeper sent over the account books in the mansion and the annual gift lists sent to various places.

Le An looked at the thick pile, rubbed his forehead, and sighed with a smile: "I thought I'd been hiding for a while, but the uncle is willing to let me just come back and look at these?"

"It should be the princess who decides." Lin Yan felt that the princess of Le'an was free and easy, unlike ordinary girls in the boudoir, but she could talk and laugh.

Asking the girl next to him to put away the things, Le An said, "Put these down, I'll take a closer look at it tonight."

There was a lot of snow this winter, and when Le An and Lin Ruo came back, the sky was overcast again.It was just in time for the twelfth lunar month, and it was the coldest time of the year, Lin Ruo's yard was not crowded for a long time, Lin Yan was afraid that it would be difficult to keep warm, so when he was about to get up to have a look, the door of the flower hall was pushed open.

Situ Lan came in wearing a black mink fur cloak wrapped in a damp and cold air.

Lin Yan saw a few snowflakes falling on his shoulders, and hurriedly asked, "Is it snowing?"

"Well, the snow pearl just fell." Situ Lan shook his cloak casually.

Le'an had already stood up gracefully, bowed with a smile on his face, "Uncle Wang is here? Basho..."

The little girl understood, and went up to take off Situ Lan's cloak, but he waved his hand to signal that she didn't need it.

Situ Lan saw that the couple's faces were full of smiles, and it was obvious that she was joking before coming here, and her heart ached a little, her handsome eyebrows raised, "I heard you brought Xiao Liuer back?"

"It's cold in the academy, so the kid came back first."

Situ Lan has been in the palace for a long time, so he naturally knows that this youngest nephew is a bit dull compared to the other nephews, and his mother's title is the lowest, and she is not very favored. Great closeness.

"Where's Little Six?"

Lin Yan raised his chin slightly, "In Ruo'er's yard, brother Le'an is also there."

After hearing this, Situ Lan didn't need any more tea, and just said, "I'll go and have a look."

He wanted to go out, so Lin Yan naturally accompanied him.Le An smiled and said: "Today there are many people, and it's very cold. Sir, why don't I ask someone to prepare a hot pot?"

"It's just the Princess' arrangement." Seeing that Situ Lan had already turned around, Lin Yan hurried to follow.Situ Lan stared back at him, and said to Basho, "Go get your uncle some snow-proof clothes."

Who in Beijing doesn't know that King Zhongshun has a bad temper?The little girl Basho has a lively personality, and she loves to talk in front of Le An on weekdays.Today, looking at the prince, he hurriedly grabbed Lin Yan's clothes from the shelf at the door and brought them over.

Lin Yan took it and dressed himself, and then left the flower hall with Situ Lan one after another.

A thin layer of snow had already fallen in the yard, and two rough women had already started sweeping with their big brooms.Looking up at the sky, the red clouds are thicker and thicker.

"I don't know why, but it's so cold this year. There have been two heavy snowfalls in the winter. Judging from today's meaning, the snow can't be light."

Lin Yan turned to look at Situ Lan, and saw that there was a bit of worry on his handsome face.I'm used to seeing him play jokes or play tricks on weekdays, and I seldom see him like this.Can't help but ask: "What's the matter?"

Situ Lan sighed, and immediately there was a puff of white gas in front of his face, which showed how cold the weather was.

"There was a heavy snowfall the other day, and some farmhouses in the suburbs of Beijing were crushed by the snow. If there are more snowstorms, I'm afraid there will be a snow disaster."

Lin Yan was also silent.

Natural disasters and man-made disasters, in fact, it is the people at the bottom who suffer the most.The places where high-rise buildings are decorated with carved beams and painted buildings will no longer collapse because of two snowfalls.

"Is there any explanation from the emperor?"

Situ Lan shook her head, "What can I do? They are all bitter gourds in the farm. If the times are good, they can be repaired. The times are not good, but let's stay close."

While speaking, he had arrived at Lin Ruo's yard.There was also a woman sweeping the snow inside. Seeing Lin Yan and Lin Yan, they both bowed their heads and stood up.

At the bottom of the veranda, Situ Lan listened to it, then smiled at Lin Yan and said, "We came here in the cold weather, and what these two children said is really happy."

Lifting the curtain to go in, Lin Ruo's room is very spacious, without opening the partition, only a twelve yellow wood relief screens with four seasons flowers are used to separate the inside and the outside.Lin Ruozheng was standing on the ground gesticulating and didn't know what to say. There was a white, tender and chubby child sitting on top of the smoker cage. His black eyes had narrowed into crescent moons, and he was smiling very happily.Close to the smoked cage, there were two iron pear wood openwork rose-pattern chairs. Situ Gong sat there and listened. Although his face was not as good as Situ Rui's, his eyes were not as dazed as before when he saw it. Wubo, with a faint smile.

Several big girls, An Ning, Bi Luo, Qing He, etc., all stood in the corner.

Seeing Situ Lan and Lin Yan come in, Lin Ruo immediately stood up, Situ Gong slipped off the chair, and Situ Rui also got up.

"All right, all right, stop standing, just sit down."

Having said that, Situ Lan walked to the front of Xun Long, and his tall body immediately covered Situ Rui's.

Even if Situ Rui was standing on the smoking cage, he had to raise his head.Seeing the word "Chuan" in the middle of his uncle's thick eyebrows, and his eyes fixed on him, Situ Rui became a little scared.Swallowing his saliva quietly, he subconsciously looked behind Lin Ruo.

"Uncle Wang..." The voice was as low as a mosquito.

Looking at Situ Lan again, he still had a black face.Situ Rui's round eyes were filled with steam, and Yuxue's cute face was full of grievances.

"What a boy..." Situ Lan reached out and pinched Situ Rui's face coldly, "Dare you sneak back by yourself?"

"No, I told the eldest brother." Situ Rui said in a low voice.

"I'm looking at you not because I'm afraid of the cold in the academy, but because I want to follow Lin Ruo out to play earlier, which is true."

Situ Rui stopped talking.He has been a little dumb since he was a child, and his brothers don't like to talk to him very much.The identity of the prince is there, and no little eunuch or maid of honor dares to play with him, so he is very lonely.Situ Jun put him in the academy purely for his sake.Ever since there were these princes in the academy, it was as if they were facing a formidable enemy.Not only were there a lot of guards outside, but Zhao Zi specially allocated the most spacious courtyard on the farthest side for them to live in.Who would dare to provoke them while studying in the academy?After all, Situ Rui is younger, and he is very envious to see other people coming and going in groups every day.

It's not easy to get to know Lin Ruo, because Lin Ruo is used to getting along with Situ Lan and Yunning on a daily basis, and she doesn't feel that Situ Rui, a young prince, has any majesty.So, there is an extra tail.

Lin Ruo was going back to the city for the New Year, and Situ Rui was depressed for several days, muttering behind the elder brother Situ Zheng.Situ Zheng was annoyed, so he simply dispatched a team of guards and sent him to Lin Ruo to go back together.

Situ Lan looked at this stupid nephew for a while, seeing that he didn't know where to put his hands, and just stood there with his head down, facing his chubby fingers. After a while, two big teardrops fell on the smoker cage. above.

"Yo, are you crying?"

Lin Ruo poked his head to look, the fat kid was standing on it with his head down and couldn't see his eyes clearly, but there was clearly a watermark on the brocade jacket with white fringe on his body.

"Hey, Uncle Wang, don't scare him." Lin Ruo frantically squeezed over to wipe Situ Rui's eyes, "He didn't sneak here by himself."

Situ Lan coughed lightly, and said sternly, "You think it's fine if he didn't sneak away? What is his identity? What if something goes wrong?"

Lin Ruo stopped talking.Let him tell, he didn't want to bring people back just like that, but before he left, the First Prince sent someone to bring them over, so he couldn't send them back?

"Okay, let's sit down first." Lin Yan went over and gave Situ Lan a hand and winked.

Although Lin Ruo didn't live at home, since the beginning of winter, the heating system in the house has been turned on, and there is no dampness that Lin Yan worried about.At this time, the warming room was hot, and Le An was afraid that the children would be cold, so he sent extra people to add more braziers.Even though the room is bigger, it still feels warm.

Situ Lan came in for a while, but still had the cloak on him.Feeling hot, I untied it and threw it on the smoker.Patting Situ Rui, "Okay, don't drop the golden beans. That's what Uncle Wang said, don't act like this again in the future. Sit down, come back for dinner, and I'll take you back to the palace."

Situ Rui peeked at him, and saw that he was sitting next to him, Situ Gong also sat down, and then he sat on the edge of the smoked cage again, but his little head was still lowered, and he was happy when he was gone. look.

After the silence, the room inevitably felt a little dull.Situ Lan rubbed his nose, what did he just say?no?

However, this little Liuer is really a fun kid.Just tell Brother Huang tomorrow, that's all.Anyway, he didn't like this child very much, and he was a little dumbfounded. Wouldn't it be nice if he could get a prince after giving it to himself?In particular, no matter how high the title of this child is, he is not a threat to his brothers...

Thinking of this, Situ Lanjun's face changed, and he smiled like a flower, "Liu'er, don't be bored. When I just entered the door, what did you say, so happy? Let me hear it. "

After all, it was a child, Situ Rui remembered the joke that Lin Ruo told just now, his eyes were still red, he grinned, and imitated Lin Ruo and told it again.But look at the few people in the room, they all looked at me, none of them smiled, and felt embarrassed, and said slowly: "It's better to let Lin Ruo speak, he speaks well."

Situ Lan leaned over and patted his head, "Uncle Jiu is right, you will be my son tomorrow, and I will tell you jokes, how about it?"

Situ Rui's eyes widened, and Lin Yan hurriedly turned away, when Le'an sent a girl outside to answer: "The Princess said, it's snowing outside now, and it's getting colder. Why don't you put the pot on Brother Ruo's In the house, the uncle can stay here with the prince, the sixth prince and the eldest son."

Lin Yan smiled and said, "The princess is still thoughtful."

With such a divergence, the topic just now is over.Lin Yan secretly glanced at Situ Lan, who smiled, raised his chin towards Situ Rui, and nodded.

Situ Rui didn't have that much time to watch their eye contact, he just stared at the big round table in the middle of the room.

The maids standing in the room, Bi Luo Qinghe and others were busy serving water for the masters to wash their hands, another woman brought up a huge brass hot pot, the charcoal fire inside was already red-hot , Another girl filled it with broth.A few more filed in, and after a while, all kinds of fish, meat, shrimp, crab, and vegetables were placed on the table.

Situ Lan entered the table first, and said with a smile: "Don't be restrained today, just sit wherever you want."

Situ Gong was on the left, and Situ Rui was supposed to be on the right, but the child was a little afraid of him and said he wanted to be next to Lin Ruo, so Situ Lan pulled Lin Yan to sit beside him.Seeing Situ Rui's posture, Lin Yan could only sit down.

Speaking of shabu-shabu, it's really a good thing.It was warm to eat in the winter, and when a few people talked about it, listening to Lin Ruo talking about interesting things in the academy, even Situ Rui gradually let go.Only Situ Gong sat there, listening and eating quietly.

While coaxing his future son to eat more meat, Situ Lan looked coldly at this nephew whom he hadn't seen much.It's just that I can't help but doubt in my heart: Is this child really so withdrawn, or is he just pretending?
