Flowers on the other side [Comprehensive Red House]

The master and wife reconciled, and the waiters in the main courtyard were relieved.Only the companions who have followed Lin Hai for a long time know what the wife has lost to her master.

If Lin Hai can return home on time, he will go back to the main courtyard to have dinner with the Ji family, together with Daiyu and Chen Guaner. Look at Sister Man.Then go to Guiying's small courtyard, take Brother Mu to the Yanyu Building, and heal Brother Mu for half an hour.

Since Lin Hai opened the Lingtai to absorb spiritual energy, Zeng wandered around the house.Because he found that the spiritual energy in the mansion was uneven, he finally found two places with rich spiritual energy: Misty Rain Building and Xiaohu.It is said to be full-bodied, but in fact it is just a little bit better than other places.

It was Brother Mu who directly benefited from Lin Hai's Qi refining.Thanks to Lin Hai's unremitting efforts, Brother Mu's injury was barely noticeable after the first month of the month.But Lin Hai knew in his heart that Brother Mu was still recovering, and if he fell again at this time, he might have a more serious cerebral hemorrhage than before.He strictly ordered the guardians of Brother Mu's catkins, mothers and maids to be more careful, and not let the child fall again, especially not to hit the head.Therefore, there are always two people by Brother Mu's side at all times, in case Brother Mu, who is just learning to walk, falls down.

After the Lantern Festival, Lin Ji went to bid farewell to his master. He had to go back to the south of the Yangtze River to take charge of Lin Hai's properties.

"Lin Ji, the green plum and luluo next to the eldest girl are both grown up, I think these two will be the companion room for the eldest girl in the future. What do you think?"

"The younger ones are all arranged by the master. I don't know which one is in charge of the property outside, which one is the housekeeper?"

Lin Hai smiled, "Your son-in-law will take care of the property, and Lin Cheng's son-in-law will be the housekeeper."

Lin Ji was delighted, so that the son-in-law could practice hard for two years under his nose first, and when he got married, he would probably be inseparable from him, and the daughter would not be wronged.

"Master, who is the candidate? The young one shouldn't ask, but he has to take over the outside affairs. The young one should take the property that was given to the eldest girl and let him know it for a few more years."

"Mingxi and Mingchuan are both useful characters who came out of my study, which one do you think is suitable to take over?"

I heard that they were selected from Mingxi and Mingchuan, and Lin Jirao was a quiet city man trained outside, so he was also very happy.Immediately knelt down and kowtowed, "Young Master Xie has a preference, which one is grace."

"Get up. After you've chosen, talk to your girl and take her to the south of the Yangtze River. When your girl turns 20, marry them. The other one will follow Lin Cheng first. It's time for Beijing to buy more properties." , discuss it with Lin Cheng and Lin Qian."

"Yes, master, don't worry, the little one will be done well." Lin Ji kowtowed again and exited happily.

Lin Hai looked at the servants that Lin Cheng and Lin Qian had chosen for him. In the past three years, they had successively increased to more than a dozen, ranging in age from seven or eight to seventeen or eighteen, big and small. Thinking of the future of Daiyu and Sister Man , he shook his head.As for Ji, after Brother Mu was injured, he dared not entrust her with important matters anymore. He had to meet and start arranging these matters early.

Lin Ji took Mingxi to Jiangnan, and Mingchuan followed Lin Cheng.

But after the first month of the lunar year, Ji's health was good, except for the knots in her heart, she recovered from the wind and cold, and she took over the main courtyard, so Lin Hai saved a part of his energy and turned his attention to court affairs.It was Chunwei again. Lin Hai was in the cabinet and recommended Cheng Yin as the chief examiner, Yang Zhenggang, the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, as the deputy chief examiner, and Gu An, who was appointed as the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, also became the examiner.As for himself, Lin Hai explained this to Jinshang.

"Saint, both the left and right servants of the Ministry of Rites will go to the Tribute Academy to be examiners, and it is more appropriate for the ministers to stay in the Ministry of Rites." Lin Hai knew in his heart that he should compete to be the chief examiner or deputy chief examiner of this year's Chunwei, but Brother Mu's injury, Treatment cannot be stopped.Comparing the two, Lin Hai still chose his son.

Today, Lin Hai refused to be Chun Wei's deputy examiner last time, and this time he recommended Cheng Yin as the chief examiner. He thought Lin Hai knew how to advance and retreat, and was very satisfied.If Lin Hai did not mention Cheng Yin as Minister of Rites, Cheng Yin would at most continue to be an examiner.After the cabinet discussion, Li Shangshu from the Ministry of Household Affairs was appointed as the chief examiner today, and Cheng Yin was the deputy chief examiner with Yang Zhenggang because he did not have the qualifications to be the deputy chief examiner.

Cheng Yin asked Jia Amnesty to get the deputy chief examiner, and asked Lin Hai to have a small gathering in Rongguo Mansion.

Lin Hai stepped on the spot to Rongguo Mansion, and brought a few jars of wine with him, but they were not big, and each jar was only about two catties.

Lin Hai pours wine for Jia Amnesty and Cheng Yin first.As soon as the wine jar was opened, the fragrance overflowed.Both Jia Amnesty and Cheng Yin couldn't help taking a deep breath, and praised in unison: "Good wine."

The wine is clear, mellow, and thick as pulp.Lin Hai looked at the wine cups prepared by Jia Amnesty, smiled, and only poured half a cup of wine each.Jia Amnesty picked up the wine cup, shook it slightly, and saw the wine liquor hanging on the clear glass wall, flowing down slowly.

Lin Hai picked up his wine cup, and sincerely said to the two, "It's a few years late, Ru Haixie and Fansen."

Jia She said: "You are my brother-in-law, I will not help anyone."

Cheng Yin also smiled and said, "Ruhai is polite. I haven't thanked you for your cooperation yet."

The three respected each other and drank half a glass of wine slowly.

At the entrance of the fine wine, there is a cool aroma at first, like the lightness of orchid chrysanthemum, and when it reaches the throat, it feels a little bit richer, and there is still no trace of spicy.After entering the stomach, the aftertaste of the previous feeling of coolness also contained a mass of heat.After a moment of effort, all limbs and bones, there is no place where you can't feel the warmth of the iron.Jia Amnesty snatched the wine jar and poured himself half a glass. This time he only took a sip, closed his eyes, tasted it slowly, and swallowed it slowly.

After a while, Jia Amnesty opened his eyes and saw that Cheng Yin was still closing his eyes, smiling, picked up the wine cup, and smelled the wine carefully.After a long time, he opened his mouth and said, "Ruhai, did you choose wine?"

Lin Hai smiled and nodded.Something inexplicable surged up in Jia Amnesty's heart, whether it was joy, regret, or some other emotion.This made Jia Amnesty a little uneasy. It had been a long time since he was not sure about his emotions.

"Ruhai's wine is very good. I've never tasted such a wonderful and mellow wine." Cheng Yin was full of praise.

"Fansen likes it. I still have a few jars in the car. After a while, you take them home and drink slowly."

Jia She stared, "What about me?"

"Brother, what's the difference between coming to my house and returning to Rongxi Hall?" Lin Hai smiled.

The three of them chatted about how to make this wine so that it tastes good.

Finally, Jia Amnesty said, "Ru Hai, according to what you say, everyone can make wine, right?"

"That's right. Just like everyone can write, how many of them have become masters of calligraphy?"

"Do you have any extra wine?"

"What do you mean by Fansen? To tell you the truth, this is the wine I brewed in the south of the Yangtze River. It has been stored in the cellar for several years, and I drink less than one jar. The water in the north is hard, and it is not easy to make good wine."

Cheng Yin nodded, expressing his understanding.Lin Hai talked to him about Chunwei in early March, and there was no lack of intention to ask him about his preference in writing questions.Cheng Yin was puzzled. If Lin Hai wanted to take the exam questions, it would not be impossible for him to be the chief examiner himself.

Jia She patted Cheng Yin on the shoulder, "Fansen, don't be intimidated by him. If he cares about him, he will be in chaos. Your niece and son-in-law, Zhang Yujin, have passed away, and now he is caught and sharpened by his two cousins ​​every day." .”

Jia Amnesty turned his head and said to Lin Hai: "If you want me to tell you, Ru Hai, you are really worried about the junior. Think about my second uncle, who is he, and what Zhang Zhao and Zhang Xu he taught? That!" Jia Amnesty took a sip of his wine, and said again: "However, if Zhang Chen dares to embarrass me, I'll break his leg?"

Cheng Yin relaxed all over, that's why.

"Enhou, are you going to marry a girl after Chunwei?"

"Yes, I won't hide anything from you about the matter in my house. Yingchun has never had a mother since she was a child. Although she studied with her husband for several years in Ruhai's house, the child is shy by nature. When she grows up, I'll just marry her and let Zhang's two nieces and daughters-in-law teach them. They are the old grandma's daughters-in-law who have been chosen out of hundreds of thousands of choices. Zhang Jiaqing accepts what the Zhang family teaches, good or bad."

"Enhou, you have such a good idea." Admiring Cheng Yin, he toasted Jia She, and Lin Hai drank with him.

"Fansen, let me tell you," Jia Shen said happily after drinking, "You know what? I appointed Ruhai's second daughter-in-law as my youngest son's wife. What's wrong, isn't it amazing?" ? Ge Lao’s daughter. If you change someone, who can get it?”

"Wait a minute, you mean Ruhai's second daughter?" Cheng Yin couldn't keep up, the child seemed to be born last autumn, and his wife even went to Lin's mansion to drink full moon wine.When she came back, she was full of praise for Lin Hai's eldest daughter, and her only daughter also liked to play with Lin Hai's eldest daughter.

"That's right. It's fixed on the day of the full moon." Jia She was no longer complacent.

"Enhou has good eyesight. Ruhai's daughter will definitely do well in the future."

"Borrowing Fansen's auspicious words. Both of my daughters have lost their birth mothers, alas, what a pity." Lin Hai shook his head and sighed, holding a wine cup to look at Cheng Yin, his eyes were deep, like an ancient well, captivating people's hearts and souls.He gave a slight signal and took a big gulp of wine.

Cheng Yin's heart felt hot, he pulled Jia She's arm, and said: "Enhou, I have something to ask, you have to help me."

Looking at Cheng Yin like this, Jia Amnesty was half sober, "Fansen, is there anything I can do to help you now?"

Cheng Yin swept Lin Hai away, "Ru Hai, with a shy face, wants to ask Ru Hai's eldest daughter to be his daughter-in-law. Enhou, can you help me?"

Jia Amnesty looked around, "Ru Hai, what do you think? His two sons are not bad."

"Ruhai, you have met both of my sons. Which one do you like? I guarantee that your girl will not be wronged when she comes to my house."

"You really won't be wronged?"

"Ruhai, don't worry, Fansen is a gentleman, he promises what he promises, and he is the most trustworthy person. Fansen, that is my niece, if your son wants to wrong her, I will call the door."

"The second son. Yan Yan lost his mother, so the second daughter-in-law can learn how to behave from the elder sister-in-law." Lin Hai hesitated again and again, and waited until Jia Amnesty and Cheng Yin were anxious, and then spit out and chose the second son.

Jia Amnesty was dissatisfied, "Why, Ru Hai, why are you looking at my niece?"

"Brother, that's my own daughter. Fansen, don't blame me for being narrow-minded. Enhou always says that I spoil children. My daughter is spiritual, but as the eldest son-in-law, I'm afraid she won't be able to bear the grievances. Besides, she just got married this month." It's my ninth birthday, and the age of your second son, Fansen, is also closer."

Cheng Yin was overjoyed and stood up to thank Lin Hai and Jia She.Jia Amnesty summoned people and brought pen and ink. He acted as a witness and saw that the two had written their marriage letter.

Cheng Yin carefully prepared the marriage certificate, and ordered his family's elders to go back to the mansion and ask the mistress for a token.Here is a wine cup, thank Jia She and Lin Hai.

The wine of the three people drank more enthusiastically and comfortably.

"Enhou, I have also appointed my son as the daughter of Mr. Linge. She is the eldest daughter." Cheng Yin couldn't stand still drunk, and still remembered to say this to Jia She.

"Okay, okay, you're amazing, you're going to be the eldest daughter." Jia Amnesty coaxed Cheng Yin into the car, saying to himself, I'm a bastard, I don't even remember what my mother looks like.

Lin Hai bowed deeply to Jia Amnesty to the end——Daiyu is engaged to Cheng Yin's second son, good!

"Why bother, just looking at Min'er is what I should do."
