Whose Evil in the Red Chamber

In the second year after Shengjia returned to Luan, Mrs. Lin's body took a turn for the worse. As a daughter-in-law, Jia Min took her one-year-old daughter back to Gusu to serve her illness. For geriatric diseases, medication only hangs life, and cannot cure the disease.

At the same time, Zhou's health was also deteriorating day by day. She was relying on her energy to hang her life. After meeting the Queen Mother and getting Huan Chen's promise, what made her most worried Things seemed to finally have a support, and the life-threatening breath immediately relaxed.

Jing Xuan put all his thoughts on his mother. In his previous life, he never enjoyed family happiness. In this life, he has a deep affection with Zhou's mother and son. He originally wanted to be filial to his mother. During this time, Jing Xuan also endured several laps.

According to common sense, Mrs. Lin is the grandmother of Jingxuan's direct relative, and Mrs. Zhou is just an aunt. The two of them were lying on the bed at the same time. Xuan's situation is too special. What happened in Jinling back then was full of turmoil. Now both Jia Min and Lin Ruhai have a headache about how to treat this child. At this juncture, Jia Min is not willing to cause more trouble, so he let Jing Xuan went.

For a while, a delicate balance was maintained between the Lin family and Jing Xuan. Although this situation was not a secret, given the lessons learned from the Sun family and the Zhen family who offended Jing Xuan, Gusu City did not There were some bad rumors and rumors, and everything was very calm.

Although Mrs. Lin was sick in bed, she was not confused. On the contrary, she became more sober than before because of the running out of time. Maybe she knew that her destiny was approaching. Mrs. Lin asked Jia Min to send a letter from the family to call Lin Ruhai back. Now that Lin Ruhai is working in Beijing, he is still thinking about his mother, and he has long thought of asking for leave to return to his hometown. At this time, the imperial court also granted the leave, so he hurried back to Gusu.

That day before the sickbed, Mrs. Lin was in good spirits. She took the hands of Lin Ruhai and Jia Min, and talked about some things in these years. Finally, she squeezed Jia Min's hand: "My son, then The Zhou family may not have much time left, if it is true in the end... let her enter the Lin family's ancestral grave, although it is against the rules, and I have wronged you, but after all, it is for the Lin family, and for our Yu'er, Jing Xuan After all, his surname is Lin, and seeing his wings getting stiffer day by day, yet he is at odds with our Lin family, if we don't make amends, it will be too late for regret."

Seeing Mrs. Lin's appearance at the moment, Jia Min and Lin Ruhai no longer wanted to, and couldn't bear to disobey their mother's last words. They nodded with tears in their eyes. After hearing this, Mrs. Lin smiled and closed her eyes. It was all mournful.

Because the Lin family had prepared long ago, the arrangements for the funeral were well-organized, and Lin Ruhai also handed over Ding You's memorial that he had prepared. The last words were also discussed by the husband and wife.

At first, Jia Min was naturally unhappy in his heart. According to the rules, concubines are not allowed to enter the ancestral grave. Mrs. Lin proposed to let the Zhou family enter the ancestral grave. There is only one way, which is to promote the Zhou family to be a concubine. There is also a justifiable reason, after all, the only male in the Lin family is from the Zhou family, and it would be reasonable to use this reason to promote her to a common wife.

But how could Jia Min be happy?Originally, Jia Min had a lingering knot in his heart when he didn't give birth to a son-in-law, but he wanted to use the reason of having a son to raise Zhou's value. It was like stabbing a knife in Jia Min's heart. General pain.

Jia Min was unwilling, and neither was Lin Ruhai.Jingxuan made such a big "farce" in Jinling before, and the news quickly spread to Jinling. Those colleagues looked at him with colorful eyes, some were envious, some were jealous, and naturally some were ridiculed. Those of the Zhen family are all family friends in Jiangnan. For a while, Lin Ruhai couldn't tell what mood he was in.

This son, whom he kept secret all the time, once again brought the old events to the fore. Lin Ruhai endured the humiliation of being teased and applauded by a woman, and at the same time struggled with Zhou's and Jingxuan's indistinguishable relationship with the royal family. The benefits brought to him in his official career by the relationship, he is neither willing to admit that his promotion is due to his mistakes in the past, but also unable to completely let go of the current stable official career, the noble reputation and real benefits in the eyes of others. I want to have both, and the pain caused by greed is always mixed with some indescribably complicated emotions.

Although the husband and wife agreed to Mrs. Lin's last words, they looked at each other and didn't know how to speak to each other. In the end, it was Jia Min who compromised.

"My mother is right. You know my body. It is hard to give birth to Yu'er. The imperial doctor also said that it will be difficult to have any more children in the future. After all, he is your only male and also Yu'er's brother. Even if you don't Besides, for our Yu'er's future, we should also do what mother said."

Lin Ruhai nodded silently, holding his wife's hand: "I have wronged you."

Jia Min swallowed the bitterness in her heart, what can she do, it's just a false name behind her back, so be it.

The husband and wife thought well, but Zhou and Jingxuan didn't care about such a false name at all. After hearing the statement from the Lin family, the sick Zhou's pale face showed the usual mocking smile towards Lin Ruhai, Said to Jingxuan:

"Look, this is Lin Ruhai, with benevolence and morality on the surface, and full of profit calculations. After so many years, he really hasn't changed at all, no, he has changed, and he has become more and more thick-skinned."

The faces of the people from the Lin family also changed when they heard this, and they lowered their heads, pretending that they did not understand these words. Jing Xuan comforted the emotional mother, then turned his head and said to the visitors:

"Go back and tell the master that our mother and son don't care about these false names, and he doesn't have to worry about it. I can arrange my mother's affairs freely, so I don't bother him."

Lin family ancestral grave?Mrs. Zhou really has no interest in this at all. Mrs. Zhou has arranged her funeral herself. Although she wants to sleep with the prince in her heart, the emperor and Huan Chen also acquiesced to this, the emperor Leaving aside, although Huan Chen was unhappy in his heart, he also knew that he had no position to stop him, and after a few days of depression, he finally acquiesced.

But Mrs. Zhou didn't want to disturb the prince who had been sleeping for many years, and finally decided to choose a quiet place. She once heard the sisters of the Jin family mention the scenery of the small island of Taihu Lake, and she was fascinated by it, so she broke up with Jingxuan. , I chose a quiet place on the island.

Jingxuan naturally obeyed his mother's arrangements, and he had no objection to this. He was just grieving in his heart, and wished that his mother's body would suddenly recover one day, but it was a pity that manpower was powerless to recover, just after Mrs. Lin passed away. In less than three months, Zhou Shi finally passed away with a smile on his face.

Jingxuan rejected the arrangement of the Lin family, Jia Min was actually relieved, but Lin Ruhai was much more complicated. After all, there is only such a single seedling in middle age. It was not pleasing to the eye before, but now it has more feelings.It's just that in the end it is alienation, and this feeling is mixed with dissatisfaction. In this world, only Lao Tzu is demanding on his son, and no son resents Lao Tzu. In this inexplicable emotion, the relationship between Lin Ruhai and Jing Xuan became more and more weird up.

Jingxuan finally got out of depression because of his mother's affairs, so he didn't have any thoughts to think about Lin Ruhai's mood. During this time, the people who stayed with him and gave him the most support were probably Wei Zhen and Wang Qi.

They were busy with Zhou's funeral affairs, Jing Xuan didn't care about the business, and Wang Qi took care of it alone, and Wei Zhen took care of the affairs of the escort agency. Not only that, but they were also afraid of Jing Xuan. After suffering a bad health, I tried to make him eat more food.

After all, Wang Qi still has Mrs. Hou to serve, so naturally he can't put all his thoughts on Jing Xuan. Wei Zhen treats Jing Xuan wholeheartedly. Originally, he was not just a brother to Jing Xuan. People almost revealed the friendship between each other, and now Wei Zhen has nothing to hide about his thoughts.

During the period when Zhou's illness was serious enough to take care of his funeral, Wei Zhen's actions did not conceal his thoughts on Jing Xuan. Even Zhou's illness was aware of it, and she was very happy about it. See what happens.

"You are my son, you can do what you want, and don't do what you don't want to do. Your own will is the most important thing. Back then, your father listened to others in everything and wanted to be a perfect prince. Suppressing my own thoughts, what will happen in the end? Others’ desires are always unsatisfactory, and in the end I have wronged myself. My son, you must not wrong yourself. If you like it, go like it. Mother will not force you to marry a wife Have a child."

Zhou is a rare and enlightened mother, these words are exactly what Jing Xuan wanted, but it also made him more reluctant to part with his mother. In the past and present, probably there will be no relatives who understand him and support him like this.

But fortunately, Wei Zhen was there, and Jing Xuan finally survived the most painful time, and the relationship between the two did not experience too many twists and turns, and neither party even spoke out the touching words of love first—— Expecting Wei Zhen to talk about love, it was also when the sun came out from the west, but both of them also understood each other's thoughts, which seemed to be a matter of course.

But even so, the way the two get along has not changed much. Jing Xuan really doesn't have that kind of thought for the time being, and Wei Zhen is a very restrained person, so the two of them are more than brothers, but they have not yet reached the standard of lovers.

Because Jingxuan had to keep filial piety for his mother for three years, even the theater troupe was put on hold. The Lingguan and the troupe master supported the theater troupe and handled everything in an orderly manner. The Lichun troupe was also famous because of the Jinling incident. At that time, no one dared to pull out teeth from the tiger's mouth. Seeing that the Lingguan was doing well, Jing Xuan gradually made the Lingguan the second shopkeeper of the theater troupe.

And in the past three years, the Lingguan's increasingly unconcealable friendship with Zhou Xi has become known to everyone. The Lingguan is inferior to his status, but no one thinks that Zhou Xi doesn't care at all.Originally, she became an orphan because of a disaster at home, and was rescued by Wu Xi and Qin Yue and made her an apprentice, and she met the Lingguan early, compared with her status as a Lingguan actor, Zhou Xi cherished him even more Kindness and self-improvement, so two people can be regarded as admiring each other. After the window was pierced, it will naturally come to fruition.

Zhou Xi is an orphan, and the Lingguan was sold to a theater troupe since she was a child, and no one knew her last name. They got married, and it was considered that the Lingguan married into Zhou's family. The Lingguan didn't care about it, and the relationship between the two grew stronger. Well, the Lingguan has gradually shifted from being a pillar of the stage to cultivating new little actors, dormant to be a shopkeeper.

In the past three years, the relationship between Jingxuan and the Lin family has maintained a delicate balance, and this balance is the little girl from the Lin family, Lin Daiyu.
