Lin Xuan of the Red Chamber

Jia Min knelt on the brocade mat in front of the Buddha and chanted scriptures silently. This was a habit she had only after giving birth to Daiyu. She didn't believe in Buddhism before.The room was quiet, chanting scriptures and worshiping Buddha required pious and quiet, so those maids were not allowed to enter this Buddhist hall, and Jia Min packed and cleaned all the things in it himself.

The sandalwood incense in the cauldron curled up into smoke, and Jia Min's heart calmed down a little bit, but at this moment, there was a sudden rush of footsteps outside, and it gradually slowed down when he was outside the Buddhist hall. down.

An old nanny with a benevolent face opened the curtain and walked in gently. Seeing that Jia Min hadn't finished her homework, she stood aside and waited quietly without daring to speak.

After about a stick of incense, Jia Min opened his eyes. Seeing this, Nanny Shi quickly stepped forward to help Jia Min, helped her to sit on the chair, and made a cup of hot tea for Jia Min.

Seeing Jia Min's haggard look, Madam Shi could not help complaining: "Madam, even if you are praying for Miss, you can't disregard your body like this. Your body is weak, and you are chanting scriptures in front of the Buddha every day. How can this body take it?"

Jia Min smiled, she knew that Nanny Shi was treating her sincerely, so she said that, so she didn't blame her, but explained in detail: "At first, I recited the scriptures for Yu'er, but later I recited the scriptures for Yu'er. I found some interest in reading, and I don’t feel boring anymore. When I chant scriptures in this Buddhist hall, my heart will be extra calm.”

"My wife, now is not the time for you to be calm, but Aunt Shen is pregnant again." Seeing Jia Min's depressed look, Mammy Shi was startled and said hastily.

Jia Min closed her eyes slightly, she didn't seem to care about this matter, and she said lightly: "So what, she gave birth to Brother Xuan, isn't it like this, you can't get past me, let me go Let her give birth, at least I can get a virtuous name.”

"Madam, how can this time be the same as last time? Last time, you hadn't given birth to her for many years and had to place your hopes on her. But this time, you already have Brother Xuan, so there is no need for her to give birth to another child." The concubine is here to block your eyes." Seeing Jia Min moved slightly, Madam Shi went on to say, "Furthermore, the last time I recorded Brother Xuan under your name was because this is the first child of the Lin family. There is a good birth, but this child does not have such factors, so it is not certain."

"I'm a aunt, and it's right for children to be raised by my side. The master is the most respectful of rules, and he will never be so confused." Jia Min was unmoved. Children born in a concubine's room should be raised by my aunt's side. This is the rule. The four generations of princes of the Lin family, a scholarly family, will never break the rules.

"Of course the master is not so confused, but what about the old lady?" Shi Momo asked softly.

Jia Min's heart moved, Shi Nanny was right, Lin Ruhai would not be like this, but the old lady may not be, she always liked Hongying, hated herself, and was afraid that she might not follow the rules, and Lin Ruhai was hindered by filial piety. , I am afraid that it cannot be violated.

"Madam, think about it, this Aunt Shen is already very popular with the master, if she has another child, no matter if it is a boy or a girl, if she is kept by his side, the master will value her even more in his heart." Shi Momo tried her best persuaded.

"Mommy, let me tell you the truth, it's not that I don't want to do something, but that Aunt Shen is always tight-lipped. This time, she must be more careful when she is pregnant. If the old lady is watching, I'm afraid it's me who wants to Whatever you do is powerless." Jia Min is also a little helpless, it's not like she hasn't done anything in these years.

"Ma'am, what you said is wrong. Only when you are pregnant can you find a better time to do it," said Madam Shi meaningfully.

"What does Mammy mean?" Jia Min looked at Madam Shi suspiciously, not understanding what she meant.

"Madam, you misunderstood our purpose from the beginning. What we want to do is not to get rid of the child, but to get rid of the mother of the child." Seeing Jia Min's expression, Shi Momo went on to say: "Do you want to get rid of the child?" Ah, pregnancy in October, when is the most messy time and the easiest time to manipulate?"

"You mean?" Jia Min's eyes lit up, looking at Nanny Shi thoughtfully.

After a while, she shook her head again and sighed, "Aunt Shen is not so easy to deal with. Although it was chaotic at that time, if we had made enough preparations, we wouldn't have a chance to intervene."

Seeing this, Nanny Shi whispered a few words in Jia Min's ear.

Jia Min's eyes flashed, she looked at Nanny Shi, and asked seriously, "Mommy, is what you said true?"

"Of course it's true, ma'am, when did I ever lie to you?"

Jia Min's eyes flickered slightly, if that's the case, it's time to give it a try, she said sternly: "In this case, then mother, you can let go and do it, just say what you need."

"Madam, don't worry, I won't make any mistakes in my work. You know, the things I prepared are rural recipes. I guarantee that no one will be able to see it," said Madam Shi confidently.

"Then I will leave this matter to you, and I hope everything goes well." Jia Min sighed, if there were other ways, she would not want to do this, but Hongying is really her confidant's serious trouble.

Jia Min stood up and walked a few steps in the Buddhist hall. The reason why she agreed to Shi Momo's plan was not because of the reasons Shi Momo said.

The reasons she said were not the most important. The most important thing was that she suddenly remembered the news from her mother a few years ago that Hongying's brother had married the princess of Prince Cheng's mansion.

When she first heard the news, she was taken aback. She was not afraid of anything else, but she was afraid that Shen Yuan would use the power of Prince Cheng's mansion to put pressure on Lin Ruhai and demand that Hong Ying be promoted to a wife.

Prince Cheng is the younger brother of the current emperor, he has always been valued by him, and he is absolutely high and powerful in the court, which is not comparable to the declining Duke's Mansion. Although Lin Ruhai is not afraid, he has always loved Hongying, so it is difficult to guarantee that Will not go with the flow.Although the four kings and eight princes are powerful, they are not completely of one mind, and they will never do their best to help themselves with the water that their married daughters splash.

However, after worrying for a few years, seeing that Shen Yuan has not moved, Jia Min gradually let go of her heart, but what Nanny Shi said just now reminded her, will Shen Yuan use this What does the opportunity do.

Instead of waiting passively, it is better to take the initiative to attack, as long as Hong Ying can be eliminated, it will be too late for Shen Yuan to do anything.

Jia Min thought about this plan carefully, and felt that the possibility of success was still very high, and it was worth a try.

Looking back, Jia Min was slightly surprised to see Nanny Shi still standing where she was. Normally, Nanny Shi wouldn't stay in the Buddhist hall after they finished discussing things.

"Is there anything else, Mammy, but it's okay, you and I are not outsiders, if there is anything I can help, I will definitely help." Seeing Mammy Shi's hesitant look, Jia Min comforted her.

"It's like this. The old lady said some time ago that most of the backyard is full of maidservants, and the uncle doesn't have any serious playmates, so she wanted to find a playmate for the uncle from the family's childbirth. The uncle of the province always wants to go out." Hearing what Jia Min said, Nanny Shi also spoke.

Hearing this, Jia Min was taken aback for a moment, but then remembered the six-year-old grandson of Mammy Shi's family. Presumably, Mammy Shi wanted her grandson to follow Brother Xuan.

She thought about it carefully, and felt that this was also a good thing. Madam Shi was her nanny, and she had no second thoughts about herself. Letting her grandson follow Lin Xuan would also promote the relationship between her and Lin Xuan. Mother-child relationship.

"Don't worry, Mommy. I know what to do about this matter. I've seen that little grandson of yours before. He knows the rules. He's a good guy. Let him stay with Brother Xuan, so I can rest assured." Jamin said with a smile.

"Madam, don't worry, if my grandson doesn't do well by then, let alone you, I won't let him go." After receiving Jia Min's reply, Mammy Shi felt relieved, and now her little grandson's future is at stake. With the landing.

------------

This time, Mrs. Lin didn't just find a playmate for Lin Xuan. She also found four well-behaved nuns for Lin Xuan. The biggest task Mrs. Lin gave them was to manage Lin Xuan well.

The last time Lin Xuan wanted to sneak out of the mansion, but the old lady was really annoyed, otherwise she wouldn't have spent so much time picking and choosing for several days, just to choose a few educations for him Mammy.

These nuns and nuns prepared by officials and officials have great power. They not only teach the etiquette of brothers and sisters, but also have the responsibility of controlling maids and taking care of the property of brothers and sisters. More importantly, if brothers and sisters If the child does something out of the ordinary, the nurturing mother also has the duty to warn and stop her.

Moreover, because it was given by the elders, the words of the nurturing mother also represent the meaning of the elders, so you have to listen to them.

Originally, Mrs. Lin doted on him and couldn't bear to let Lin Xuan be under the control of those nuns, so she never mentioned it. But what happened this time made Mrs. Lin understand that this nunnery didn't invite him. No way.

On the day the nuns were chosen, Mrs. Lin brought them over for Lin Xuan to meet.

When Lin Xuan heard this, he was a little stunned. He didn't want so many people to control him, and there were 1000 million unwillingness in his heart.

But looking at Mrs. Lin's appearance, even if Lin Xuan didn't want to, he understood that he might not be able to resist this matter. He could only force himself to accept the ceremony from these nuns, and on the surface he had to smile and said: "In the future I'm going to trouble the nuns."

Naturally, those nuns didn't even dare to say it, and said it was their duty.

Mrs. Lin looked at them sternly, and her voice was flat but majestic: "You are all selected by me, and I trust you very much. Now I will hand over Xuan'er to you. You must live well." Teach without error"

Those nuns naturally understood the meaning of Old Madam Lin's words. If something went wrong, they would definitely be the ones to question them.

The old lady Lin nodded. The foundation of these nuns' family businesses is in the Lin Mansion, and they dare not be unsatisfied with Lin Xuan and the others. However, they still have to say what should be said.
