The Second Young Master of the Lin Family in the Red Chamber

Lin Yu's life in Jia's house began with a strong sense of disobedience, because the character of Jia Baoyu he met was so far from the original character, which made it difficult for him to accept it for a while, and Lin Yu also He found that Jia Baoyu was too polite to himself and Lin Jin.

Did he also know that the Lin family only had one son who died young, and he wanted to find something from them, or he wanted to win over them for Daiyu.No matter what, Lin Yu could not accept it, so every time Jia Baoyu talked to Lin Jin, he was not happy.

Lin Jin was very puzzled by Lin Yu's hostility towards Jia Baoyu, and asked him, "Yu'er, do you dislike Second Brother Bao?"

Lin Yu frowned immediately when he heard the words, "Do you want to be so affectionate? If we have no blood relatives, "brother and brother" called up, so he frowned and said: "My brother is only focused on discussing homework with cousin Jia, and ignores me." It's gone." In order not to make Lin Jin suspicious, Lin Yu tried his best to pretend to be the lost younger brother whose elder brother was robbed, he dared not let Lin Jin know that his hostility towards Jia Baoyu came from his subversion of the original book.

"How could it be? How could I ignore Yu'er? You are my favorite younger brother." Although Lin Yu was only half a month older than Lin Yu, Lin Ruhai and Jia Min saw that Lin Jin was smart and precocious, and had always been the eldest son. The standard required him, so he was full of protective desire for Lin Yu.

At first, Lin Yu wasn't used to being protected by a milk doll, but he didn't want to show his feet and make people suspicious, so he was forced to accept it. Now, after a few years, he is really used to it, so much so that he has to laugh at it from time to time Let yourself go, and you will really go back to living more and more.

Seeing that Lin Yu was still frowning, Lin Jin said again: "We live in the Jia family, so we must establish a good relationship with the master's family, otherwise my sister will be in trouble." Anyway, we all want to get along with the Jia family. Many of them Jia Lian who has no common language at all, Jia Huan who has no intention to study and is completely reduced to a foil, and Jia Lan who is old-fashioned and old-fashioned after losing his father. Lin Jin thinks that Jia Baoyu is the best to talk, at least when discussing studies. , They have a common language, but Lin Jin just doesn't like Jia Baoyu, and he doesn't know why.

"I see." Jia Baoyu performed perfectly and took good care of his cousin who came from afar. Lin Yu was worried that his inner son had changed, which might be bad for him, and it was not good to say too much in front of Lin Jin. Besides, If you go down, you will be suspected of telling stories, so you can only observe secretly.

Fortunately, except for Jia Baoyu, the performance of the rest of the Jia family is more in line with the original work, so that Lin Yu will not collapse too much.Jia's mother is an old lady in a wealthy nest, and her son and grandson are her lifeblood, but her love for Daiyu is also sincere, so Lin Yu is relieved that Daiyu lives with her. After all, Lin Ruhai is still there, and Jia No matter how snobbish the family members are, they are still polite to their siblings at this time.

The two wives in the house, Mrs. Xing of the big house is the stepmother, she has no friendship with Jia Min, and she is stingy and stingy. relation.On the other hand, Mrs. Wang from the second bedroom looked gentle and kind. She usually liked to chant scriptures and talk about Buddhism, but her mind was not so clean. Every time Lin Yu met her, she felt a cloudy and lingering feeling.

Could it be that she had a bad relationship with Jia Min back then?That's why I don't like them, especially Daiyu.According to the analysis of some red scholars, Mrs. Wang was the most direct creator of Bao Dai's love tragedy. Without her objection, the story might have taken another direction.

But this is the only thing that Lin Yu is grateful to Mrs. Wang. He doesn't want to marry his sister to Jia Baoyu. What to do if he is brewing some conspiracy.

Living in Jia's house for half a month, the lives of the Lin family's siblings gradually got on the right track. Lin Jin, Lin Yu, and Jia Baoyu, Jia Huan and others went to Jia's family school to study every day. Apart from Jia Dairu, the family school teachers also There are two other failed candidates, although their level is not as good as the original Mr. Li, but they are so-so, and they can make do.Lin Yu reckoned that this was also due to Jia Baoyu's contribution, but although the family education was no longer a mess, there were not many people who studied hard, most of them just had fun, they just didn't dare to make trouble, and very few concentrated.

Lin Yu was a little puzzled at first, but after thinking about it, he realized that this was caused by the current situation of the Jia family.The Jia family started with military exploits, and their ancestors did not study for generations. It was not until the rise of Jia Yan and Jia Yuan brothers that they began to pay attention to this issue.It's just that the Jia Yan brothers have made great military exploits. Their sons Jia Daihua and Jia Daishan also followed their fathers on the battlefield.When it came to Jia Jing’s generation, negative textbooks came out. The one who was admitted to Jinshi was a monk and practiced Taoism, but Jia Zheng, the only one who entered the court, was recommended.

With such a family background, it is strange that the young people of the Jia family love to study. After more than ten years of hard work, there may not be any gains, so it is better to find another shortcut.In Lin Yu's view, apart from him and Lin Jin brothers, Jia Baoyu and Jia Lan are the only ones who really study in the Jia family.As for these two people, one is suspected to be not original, it is not surprising that they are hardworking, and the other has a mother from a scholarly family, who has heard and seen it since childhood. Fortunately, the others are just not serious enough and will not deliberately make trouble in class. Too lazy to study it carefully.

Although they lived separately in the inner and outer courtyards, Lin Jin and Lin Yu had to greet Mother Jia every day, so naturally they could also see Daiyu.Lin Yu thought about what Daiyu wrote "360 days a year, wind, knife, frost, and sword are strict with each other", and asked her privately several times how she lived in Jia's house, and if there was anything wrong, she should tell them in time. Or write a letter to my father.Daiyu laughed and said that he was worrying unfoundedly. Mother Jia pitied her for losing her mother when she was young, and treated her better than her three granddaughters Yingchun, Tanchun, and Xichun. Aunt and sister-in-law are also easy to get along with. Apart from missing her father a little, there is nothing wrong with her. .

Seeing that Daiyu's expression did not seem to be fake, Lin Yu was relieved.Thinking about it, Daiyu has just arrived and is winning Jia's mother's favor. Lin Ruhai has prepared a great gift for the Yue family, and their siblings are also very generous to the Jia family's servants. No matter how snobbish the Jia family is, it is impossible for them to neglect at this time They, Daiyu's life in Jia's family was difficult, probably after Lin Ruhai passed away and the Lin family's property was swallowed up by others.No matter who did those things, Mrs. Wang or the entire Jia family, Lin Yu would never let the same plot repeat itself.

On this day, Lin Jin and Lin Yu, the family schoolmate Muxiu, talked to Mother Jia, and took the boy out, saying that he was going to visit a classmate of his father in the past, and the greeting card was sent there a few days ago .Although they are not yet of age, Lin Jin and Lin Yu are boys, and they are going to visit their elders, so they are forced to go out by themselves. Mother Jia didn't say anything, and just let them go early and return early.After the two brothers went out, Mrs. Wang inadvertently asked who they were going to visit. If it was someone who was familiar with the Jia family, they should also follow the ceremony, so as not to lose their etiquette.

Daiyu thought for a while, then said hesitantly: "Jin'er said two days ago that she is an adult surnamed Liu who lives in Xiaolianhuatai Hutong." It is inconvenient for the girl to go out, and Lin Ruhai's friends in the officialdom are mainly with two The son confessed, so Daiyu didn't know very well.

Mrs. Wang just asked casually, and didn't care about it. The Lin family's population is small, and Lin Ruhai has been away from Beijing for many years, and even if he was born in Tanhualang, how many relatives and old friends can he have? , but just to start a conversation.But when Daiyu mentioned the words "Xiaolianhuatai Hutong", Mrs. Wang's face changed slightly. It is not a place where ordinary people can live, and there is only one adult surnamed Liu, who was newly appointed last year. Liu Xu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, is said to be a difficult person to deal with.

The Ministry of Officials is in charge of the appointment and dismissal, examinations, promotions, awards, transfers and other affairs of civil officials in the world.Jia Zheng has been in the Ministry of Industry for more than ten years, barely promoted by half a level, from the sixth-rank master Bo to the fifth-rank Yuanwailang, and has never moved since then. It’s not that the Jia family never thought of leaving the official department. The way, but the relationship is not in place, can not go through.

Mrs. Wang never expected that the Lin family would have a close relationship with the Liu family, and Liu Shangshu personally returned the invitations sent by the two children.It's a pity that Lin Jin and Lin Yu didn't elaborate on this before, and Daiyu didn't know much about it, which made them miss the opportunity to make friends.

Regarding the matter of friendship with the Liu family, Mother Jia's thinking is similar to that of Mrs. Wang. Friends of relatives are also friends, but how to do it will have to wait for Lin Jin and Lin Yu to come back. In case the two families are just casual friends, they If you came to the door hastily, it would be a loss of courtesy.

Both Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang were relatively calm-tempered, their hearts were full of twists and turns, but their faces were calm, so Daiyu didn't think it was strange. After talking with the elders for a while, she talked to Yingchun. Waiting for someone to go to class.Although Daiyu said in front of Lin Yu that everything was fine in Jia's family, it was not her own family after all, even if she was loved by her grandmother, she could not feel at ease in her own family.It's just that my grandmother sent someone to pick me up, but my father not only didn't object, but also sent my younger brothers. It can be seen that things are not simple, even if it is a little unsatisfactory, he secretly endured it.

The carriage drove to Xiaolianhuatai Hutong. Seeing that the alley was not very wide, Lin Jin and Lin Yu were afraid that it would be difficult to reverse the car, and they didn't want the Jia family to follow him in, so they both got out of the car, followed by pens and papers, holding gift boxes in their hands.Before they could go in, they saw a simple pony carriage coming out of it. Although the body was not wide, it blocked the road firmly, so they moved sideways to the side, wanting to wait for the pony carriage to pass before entering.

When passing by Lin Jin and Lin Yu, the people in the car suddenly lifted the curtain. Lin Yu looked up subconsciously, but saw a pair of eyes as black as ink, sharp and sharp. People have a deep memory and never forget it.
