Warriors in the Red Chamber

Lin Hai remembered that his good friend and compatriot sister married into the Marquis of Tong'an. Although Xiao Qian, the Marquis of Tong'an, was not well-known, he made great achievements in the expedition to Nanman a few years ago and was considered a famous general.

Gu Yi said with a smile: "Exactly, my sister's eldest son." Lin Hai smiled at Xiao Zhiyuan when he heard the words: "I have heard about your father's reputation for a long time, but it's a pity that I don't have the chance to meet him. I don't know how your father has always been?"

Xiao Zhiyuan replied: "My father has always been well, thank you uncle for your concern, my father also said that Mr. Lin is in charge of the Jiangnan salt administration, and he has worked so hard, so I admire him." Although these words did not necessarily come from the mouth of Marquis Tong An, they were what Xiao Zhiyuan thought in his heart. After learning about the situation of the Lin family in the past few days, he was completely convinced by Lin Hai.

Gu Yi smiled and said: "Okay, Ru Hai, you don't have to talk to this kid, he is the most boring like a little old man."

For Xiao Zhiyuan's teasing, Xiao Zhiyuan seemed to have never heard of it, it was just a school of politeness, it seemed that Gu Yi was a little unreasonable.Fortunately, although Lin Hai and Gu Yi haven't seen each other for many years, they know his temperament and don't care about it.

Gu Yi was dissatisfied with his nephew's appearance and only wanted to settle the score later, and said to Lin Hai, "I heard about Mrs. Madam when I arrived in Yangzhou the day before yesterday. Ruhai, please mourn."

Lin Hai smiled wryly when he heard the words: "Maybe I really don't have a deep relationship! Now I only hope that the young girl will be safe, and I have nothing more to ask for."

Hearing that Lin Hai mentioned his daughter, Gu Yi cast a calm glance at Xiao Zhiyuan. He clearly remembered what someone said, so he wondered if he dared to say it again.

Xiao Zhiyuan moved his footsteps slightly, guessing that his uncle would not be so unreliable to say his jokes, if it was true, he might be kicked out later.

Fortunately, even though Gu Yi's disposition was loose, it was not that bad. Seeing that Xiao Zhiyuan knew he was wrong, it was good.Then Lin Hai said: "Speaking of which, I haven't met my niece yet, why don't you come out and meet her?"

Although she pays attention to the defense of men and women, but Daiyu is only six years old now, and it doesn't matter if she meets Lin Hai because of the relationship between Gu Yi and Lin Hai. If the whole family is good, I will also meet foreigners, and there is no hindrance.

He ordered someone to invite the girl, and said to Gu Yi, "My daughter has a good temper and everything, but she has been weak since she was a child, which worries me a lot."

Gu Yi comforted: "It's okay for children like us to be weak, but it's just a good life and will be raised, and it will be fine in a few years."

Lin Hai smiled lightly: "I accept your good words."

Daiyu was reading a book in her room at the moment. Originally, Lin Hai invited a teacher for her, but Jia Min didn't go to class after he became seriously ill, and now he only reads books in his free time.Suddenly hearing that Lin Hai sent someone to call her to meet the guests in the front hall, she was very surprised, and hurriedly asked why, after all, she was a girl, and she was in the filial piety period, if the female guests were better, there should be male guests in the front hall, why would they call her?

Then I thought about whether it was from a relative's house, then it was possible.But the boy who sent the message said no, he seemed to be an old friend of the master.No matter how you see it, you will know it.Only Nanny Zhang and Nanny Lin led the maids to change their clothes.

Lin Hai accompanied Gu Yi and Xiao Zhiyuan to chat in the front hall. Because Xiao Zhiyuan was young, Lin Hai didn't talk to Gu Yi about state affairs and government affairs. If you want to practice martial arts in the imperial examination, you just sighed about the origin of family education, and the tiger father has no dog son.

However, for people like them, even if they don’t study literature in the future, they still have to learn a lot. Lin Haiyuan was worried about face and didn’t take the school exam too hard, but he didn’t want to find out that although his second son was not spiritual enough with just a few questions, his thoughts were far beyond peer.It is inevitable that he has the idea of ​​loving talents, and he is more and more satisfied after several school exams.

Unsatisfied, he said to Gu Yi: "It's a pity that Zhiyuan didn't take the imperial examination. If he can enter the court as an official, he will definitely become a capable minister in the future."

Gu Yi smiled and said: "Ruhai, you are too much, he can really say it, you really ask him to write an article to see if he is not as good as younger than him!"

Xiao Zhiyuan also got up to thank Lin Hai for his appreciation. Hao Ran said, "Thank you for your attention, Uncle Shi. It's just that the boy has limited talent in reading. Besides, enlisting in the army and defending the country is also to be loyal to the country. This is what I wish."

Lin Hai nodded in satisfaction and said: "You have the heart to live and work hard so that you will not fall into your father's reputation in the future, but I am far behind."

Here, when the guests and hosts are enjoying themselves, a servant comes in to report Daiyu's arrival, and Lin Hai asks someone to lead her in.Daiyu came in with two maids, and with a cursory glance, she saw two guests sitting, one was about the same age as her father, and she was handsome.The other was a young guest, who seemed to be a few years older than himself.His eyes are clear and calm, he is not a child of this age.

Daiyu observed the visitor, and the visitor naturally observed her, because she was still in the filial piety period, Daiyu was dressed in light blue clothes, she had no accessories on her body, and there were two small buns on her head, which was fine.Gu Yi frowned slightly. She was too thin. Compared with the nephew and niece I met in Beijing, this niece was really not in good health. No wonder my friend was worried.

Compared to Gu Yi's worries, Xiao Zhiyuan has a deep understanding of Sister Lin's thinness, but seeing such a young girl behaves politely, without the slightest pettiness in her actions, she can't help but sigh that she is not comparable to ordinary people, what?You said that he himself, is he in a normal situation?

Daiyu met her father first before she walked up, Lin Hai nodded and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you, Uncle Gu, and Brother Xiao Shi." Daiyu hurriedly greeted Gu Yi after hearing the words, "My niece has met Uncle Gu." Gu Yi was busy Let it not be too polite.

Daiyu said to Xiao Zhiyuan again: "I have seen Brother Xiao." Xiao Zhiyuan got up and returned the courtesy: "Sister Lin is polite." She looked serious, but she couldn't help thinking in her heart, why is such a big girl so thin? Just eat more.But sister Lin really looks good.

After seeing the ceremony, Daiyu sat down next to Lin Hai. Gu Yi looked at Daiyu who knew the ceremony and smiled, "Don't blame my niece, my uncle came in a hurry and didn't prepare a suitable gift. The jade pendant on my body is not bad. Leave it to your niece to play with! Don't hold it against."

The elder didn't dare to say goodbye, so Daiyu hurriedly got up and said with a smile, "Niece, thank you Uncle Gu." Seeing his uncle take off the jade pendant and give it to Daiyu, Xiao Zhiyuan felt annoyed for a while, thinking why he didn't prepare a copy when he came to the Lin family Gift for a rainy day.At this moment, my uncle can untie his own things and give them away, but he can't do it himself. If he dares to do this, he will not be shot by Mr. Lin.

Daiyu naturally wouldn't ask for a gift, but Gu Yi looked at Xiao Zhiyuan with a half-smile, didn't you miss the Lin family's younger sister?My sister is here now, don't you have any gifts?

Ignoring his brother-in-law's schadenfreude, Xiao Zhiyuan got up and said to Daiyu: "Sister Lin, forgive me, I didn't prepare anything good when I went out in a hurry, next time I will definitely make up a big gift for my sister." It is slightly red.Daiyu blinked and noticed this small detail.

Looking at the little brother who was a little embarrassed in front of him, he grinned and said, "Brother Xiao doesn't need to be too polite, I will be satisfied if you want to." After speaking, he winked at Xiao Zhiyuan.

Seeing the cute little girl in front of him, Xiao Zhiyuan grabbed his hand and quickly put it down, his father is sitting, and his sister can't move her paw even if she is cute, it will be very miserable.She could only endure the itch in her heart and returned to her seat with a righteous face, which made Daiyu feel that this brother was really interesting.

Seeing that Daiyu was happy, Lin Hai also nodded in satisfaction. It had been a long time since Jia Min passed away and she hadn't seen Daiyu smile. Now it seems that children should have a companion. After a change of mind, he had something to say to Gu Yi, Just sent the two kids away.

So he said to Daiyu: "Yu'er, it's rare for your elder brother Xiao to come here, you can take him to the garden for a walk, Daddy has something to talk to your Uncle Gu."

Hearing this, Daiyu and Xiao Zhiyuan stood up at the same time, Xiao Zhiyuan understood that although Lin Hai was satisfied with him, he still treated him as a child, and he would not say anything about the government in front of his face, nor would he force it, anyway, my uncle would not hide it look at yourself.

So Xiao Zhiyuan said with a smile: "My nephew is also going to visit the garden in the mansion, and sister Lau Lin will lead the way." Daiyu naturally agreed, and the two of them retired to play by themselves.

Seeing that the two children had left, Gu Yi took a sip of tea and said slowly, "Ruhai, you sent the children away, but what do you want to say?"

Lin Hai smiled and said, "There is indeed something I would like to ask for your help."

"In the relationship between you and me, these two words can still be used, but it's okay to say, but I'm just an idler, and you can't ask me for this court affairs, so it's a family matter, but it's for your niece?" Gu Yi's mind was so clear that he could understand what Lin Hai was doing in just a moment.

Lin Hai smiled and said: "Zigu, you still have this temperament. It is indeed because of Yu'er. You also saw that my wife passed away. Although I have intentions, I am busy with work. Besides, my daughter's family still needs the elders in the inner house to teach. I want to extend an invitation for her. Two venerable nuns."

Gu Yi gently scraped the tea, and he understood what Lin Hai meant. If the current rules are untaught, her daughter may suffer from bad reputation in the future. No matter how good it is, it's useless. What's important is the four words of high morality and prestige, which can suppress ordinary people who don't criticize.It's really hard to do, but it's not impossible.

It's just that Gu Yi couldn't help asking: "No matter how good this nanny is, some things are inconvenient. You are not very old. Wouldn't it be better to marry another wife in two years when your niece is not too old?"

Lin Hai said indifferently: "I won't hide it from you. I have no intention of remarrying. Originally, I wasn't so anxious about Yu'er's upbringing. It's just that someone from my Yue family's Rongguo Mansion came to take Yu'er to Beijing for education. I hope, it's just that they won't give up so easily, and I can feel more at ease if I set up a suitable parenting mother sooner."

Gu Yi frowned and said: "This Jia family is also a noble family, but since Rong Guogong left, it has become more and more unbearable. Don't you know that this side sent the daughter to the palace, and the other side followed the Zhen family and Zhongyi?" The people on the side can't figure it out, and they want to be fools on the fence. They really don't know what to do. Ruhai, you'd better stay away from that side.
