Lin Jiajingyu's Counterattack in the Red Chamber

Mrs. Wang was choked by Daiyu, and she fell there in a steady tone. Then she saw the maid came in to announce, and the old lady passed the meal.

Daiyu followed Mrs. Wang to Jiamu's place. When eating at Jiamu's place, Li Wan, Wang Xifeng and Mrs. Wang, who were the daughters-in-law of Jia's family, waited on her. On a chair, Daiyu couldn't refuse, so she accepted it.

It was Daiyu's first visit to her grandfather's house, remembering what Lin Jingyu told her when she was leaving, she paid more attention to everything, so as not to make people look down on the Lin family.Seeing that the eating habits of Jia's family are different from those at home, it is also necessary to follow everyone's practice one by one.

After eating, we chatted for a while, and it is estimated that Mother Lin and the others who were led down to eat by the maid are almost ready.Seeing Mother Jia's expression, Daiyu smiled and said to Mother Jia: "As soon as I saw my grandmother, Daiyu was very kind. How could you forget about what my father gave to Daiyu? You really want to beat me!"

Mother Jia looked at Daiyu reproachfully, and asked her to sit near her.Smiling and scolding: "Oh, my eyeballs, my ancestors are here, I think your father dares to do something? Come and tell the ancestors, what errands will your father entrust to you?"

Daiyu thanked Mother Jia first, and replied with a smile, "Daiyu doesn't know too well, these things are all handled by Nanny Lin! Daiyu only knows that it is for her grandmother!"

Jiamu took Daiyu's hand and said, "Go and see if the food that Miss Lin brought is available?"

Everyone answered in unison, and two little maids standing on the edge opened the curtain and went out.

After a while, Nanny Lin and the others came in. As slaves, they naturally had to be on call.Although Mother Jia said it tactfully, Nanny Lin still knew it was just a matter of saving face.Nanny Lin hurriedly led the crowd to meet the ceremony.

Mother Jia saw that one of them had gray hair and neat clothes, leading all the maids and women, and judging by her age, she was probably not an ordinary woman.Yin Shi asked, "Who are you, tell each other."

Nanny Lin took half a step forward, and replied, "Go back to the old lady, the lady is from the Lin family. The old lady loves you and has been the master's wet nurse. The master takes pity on you and asks the old lady to accompany and guide the girls in their speech and behavior." .”

Hearing this and confirming her identity, Mother Jia turned her body sideways, slightly avoiding Nanny Lin's gift.

After Nanny Lin finished speaking, she returned to her previous position.Wang Momo took half a step forward, and then said: "The maidservant from Wang's family, thanks to Madam's respect, she became the girl's nanny."

"My servant, Xianyin, used to be the maid beside Madam." Xianyin concealed that she was more about Lin Jingyu's personal maid.

Nanny Lin sighed secretly, she also knew that she had just arrived at Jia's house, and she didn't know what the old lady thought of the uncle, so it was better to act carefully and prudently.

"The slave girl Yan Zheng is now the maidservant of the girl."

Although Yanzheng followed the chords, she still emphasized that 'now' is the girl's big servant girl.

"Slave Xueyang"

"Slave Snow Goose"

Mother Lin waited for Xueyan to finish, and then said to Mother Jia: "Miss, there are four little maids who are always serving, so they don't get in front of the old lady. When leaving, the master is afraid that the road will be inconvenient, so the maid who waits on the girl brings such a some people."

This introduction shocked everyone present.The people serving in Jia's mother's room raised their heads unobtrusively, glanced at the girls of Jia's family with only one nanny and two maids, and thought to themselves, the Lin family is really noble.Judging by what Nanny Lin meant, she still thinks that there are fewer people accompanying her and she doesn't take good care of her? !

Seeing the actions of the little maids in the room, Mother Jia thought for a while, then glanced sideways at Daiyu who was accustomed to it, and said with a calm smile, "I heard from Daiyu, what kind of work did I entrust her to her? You silly boy, you still don't know!"

Unable to see Mother Jia's expression, Nanny Lin's smile was even more respectful, and she said with a smile, "Why should the girl worry about these things?" Bring it up and show it to the old lady!"

Xueyan and Xueyang, who were half a step wrong and standing behind Nanny Lin, answered 'yes' in a low voice, and walked out of the room.After a while, he came back again.A few people followed behind, carrying two large boxes lightly, and after putting down the boxes, they bowed and left.

Seeing the curious look on Jia Mu's face, she figured out the meaning, what Lin Nanny meant when she stepped forward to invite Jia Mu.

I heard Mother Jia say, 'Then take it out and have a look! ’, Xueyan and Xueyang worked together to open the more primitive and thickly decorated box in front.

Seeing that everyone was looking inside curiously, Nanny Lin walked up to the box, Xianyin and Yanzheng went up and took a boxy purple trembling wooden box, and handed it to Nanny Lin.Mother Lin held the box in both hands, stepped forward, and handed it to Mother Jia.

Yuanyang, the big maid next to Jia Mu, took it, turned around, and opened it.

Everyone saw only a flash of festive red for a moment, and they were curious when they heard Mother Lin smile and say: "This is a full face mask, all made of top-quality red agate. I dedicated it to the old lady, wishing the old lady a happy birthday." Kangtai!"

"Okay, okay!" Mother Jia touched it with her hand and nodded in satisfaction.

After being rewarded by Jiamu, the mandarin ducks closed the box and put it on the table by Jiamu's hand.

After watching the mandarin duck's movements, Xianyin and Yanzheng took out another long object from the box and wrapped it in brocade.Xianyin took two steps forward and handed it to Nanny Lin.

Everyone is guessing, who is this for and what is inside.Then she saw Nanny Lin walking up to Mother Jia again and handing it directly to Yuanyang.Yuanyang glanced at Jia Mu suspiciously, took it, and opened the brocade.

There was only a wooden crutch carved with mixed flowers, and Yuanyang hurriedly used it to replace the one in Jia Mu's hand.Mother Jia tried it, and she was very good at it?br>Looking at the satisfied expression on Mother Jia's face, Mother Lin smiled and said: "My uncle missed my grandmother, so I found a whole piece of gloomy wood, and invited famous teachers to make it. This. Baba offered it here as a show of filial piety."

Mother Jia was indeed very satisfied with the crutch in her hand. Hearing this, she just smiled and nodded instead of choking secretly.

Nanny Lin took out the rest of the same box, and gave Mrs. Xing a green ruyi, and Mrs. Wang a jade bodhisattva.

Sister Lin saw that the two seemed quite satisfied with the gifts, and added: "These two things, the master specially sent them to Qingguang Temple, and asked the host to consecrate them."

The two of them hadn't said anything yet, when Jia Mu, who was trying out the crutches, heard this, she hurriedly stopped her movements, and asked, "Is it the master of Jiean?"

Nanny Lin thought for a while, and returned with certainty: "Back to the old lady, the presiding master's Dharma name is indeed 'Quiet Anger'."

Hearing this, Jia's mother hurriedly said, "Bring it to me quickly."

Mrs. Wang stepped forward quickly and handed over the Jade Bodhisattva in her hand. Mrs. Xing, who was half a step behind, took back her half-steps resentfully, and retreated.

Mother Jia took it, touched it, looked at it carefully, and said to Mrs. Wang: "Put it away for good sex!"

Mrs. Wang saw that Jia Mu really liked it, so she declined, saying that she would put it here.Mother Jia shook her head. "Since your sister-in-law gave it to you, you can keep it."

Mrs. Wang couldn't resist the refusal, so she stepped forward and took it back.Just as she was about to hand the Jade Bodhisattva in her hand to the maid behind her, she remembered Jia Mu's movement of touching the Bodhisattva carefully just now, she darkened her expression and gave up the plan.

Xueyan and Xueyang hurriedly closed the empty box, and then opened the other big box.

Everyone straightened their necks and watched carefully.The four treasures taken out of the box above can all be used as family heirlooms, and the Lin family gave them away directly, generous!

Nanny Lin took out an exquisite nanmu box, opened it, and found that the inside was also covered with brocade, and the brocade was wrapped with things.Seeing the behavior of the Lin family, everyone was even more curious. This fine brocade was so ruined, which proved that the things inside were expensive by many levels.

Nanny Lin carefully lifted the brocade, revealing what was wrapped inside.

Hey--!

Everyone sighed in their hearts, seeing that it was nothing but embroidered clothes with exquisite embroidery and novel patterns.

Regardless of everyone's disappointment, Mother Lin added: "This is the Ziyue treasure of Jinlan Pavilion, and only one piece is produced a year. In the Jiangnan area, Jinlan Pavilion is highly respected by the noble ladies of the government. Jinlan Pavilion is the best. I don’t know what the master is thinking of?”

Sister Lin explained with a smile, seeing the increasingly bright light in the eyes of the girls, she finally made fun of her uncle.Seeing that Wang Xifeng was about to open it, his expression changed instantly, and he hurriedly added: "Second Grandma Lian, it's better to go back and choose the accessories carefully, and then wear it for the old lady to see."

Wang Xifeng was facing Nanny Lin, and paid close attention to Nanny Lin's explanation, just happened to see Nanny Lin's expression changing instantly, and said with a coquettish smile: "Old ancestor, wait for grandson to tidy up carefully, and then show off in front of you! "

"Macaque, macaque!"

"This is a high-quality Duan inkstone. The master personally selected it for the second master Bao. If the second master Bao is not around, he can only entrust it to the second wife."

Nanny Lin held the box containing the Duan inkstone and walked to Mrs. Wang, blessed her body, and Mrs. Wang hurriedly returned a half salute.Nanny Lin smiled and handed the box to Mrs. Wang.

Seeing that Nanny Lin had packed all the presents for the group, Daiyu, who had been sitting next to Mother Jia, stood up and walked to Sanchun.Yan Zheng held a flat oval wooden box of agarwood and followed behind.

"I chose this by myself. I don't know what the sisters like, so I can only guess and choose. Looking at it today, it is really Daiyu's blessing, and it really confuses me."

As Daiyu spoke, she picked three out of the dozen or so items in the box.

The white jade hairpin shaped like a butterfly falling on the winter jasmine was given to Yingchun, the bracelet inlaid with red gemstones and roses was given to Tanchun, and the jade pendant shaped like a blooming lotus was given to Xichun who was still young.

Yingchun and the three really liked the three items that Daiyu had personally selected, and it really touched their hearts.

Besides those three items, Daiyu sincerely invited the three of them to choose the rest in the box.The three of them saw that the style was good-looking, and they chose quite a few.The three of them took Daiyu to the place where they were sitting just now, and after a while they muttered to each other.Mother Jia also looked at them with a smile on her face and loving eyes.

Immediately, Nanny Lin stepped forward and asked about the girl's house, "Old lady, I don't know how to arrange the girl's house? It was arranged earlier, so the maids can pack up the boxes."

Looking at Daiyu who was playing with Sanchun, Jia Mu thought for a while and said, "I was planning to move Baoyu out and put you, Miss Lin, in the green gauze cupboard temporarily. After the end of winter, I will find a place to put it. "

Mother Jia glanced at Nanny Lin, and saw that although Nanny Lin was smiling, her face froze when she heard her words, although it was fleeting.Jia Mu frowned slightly, and then said with a smile: "You have a complete group of people, and the courtyard of Lixiangyuan is neat and tidy, and it has just been tidied up, so Daiyu can be placed there."

As soon as she heard Jiamu say to move Baoyu out and put Daiyu in the green gauze cabinet, her eyes flashed.Hearing this now, I felt even more resentful, it was what she cleaned up for her sister.No matter how the belly was rowed in the heart, the respectful apprehension was still on the face.

Mother Lin saw that the accommodation had been arranged, she coughed in a low voice, and said with some embarrassment: "The old lady said, when the master left, he gave two cooks who can cook Jiangnan dishes, so I can show the old lady Filial piety."

Thinking of the greasy food just eaten, and thinking about the girl's body, Sister Lin felt that it was an extremely correct decision for the uncle to take two cooks with him when he left.This diet is really unaccustomed!

Mother Jia thought for a while: "Is she afraid that she won't be used to northern dishes?! In that case, let's build a small kitchen in Lixiangyuan, and you girls can use it there. Meals and so on."

Jia's mother paused, and Wang Xifeng hurriedly stepped forward, took over the conversation, and said with a smile: "I wrote the list, and I will let the purchaser buy it according to it. It doesn't take much trouble."

She went back, and Heping'er and the two of them opened the box.Sure enough, seeing a small box under the clothes, Wang Xifeng thought it was some silver bills at first, but still laughed in her heart, why did the Jia family get to this point? !

Ping'er opened it, and it turned out to be a few sheets of paper.Wang Xifeng read it carefully, and although the letter was a bit short, it made it clear.Lian's second cousin used the first prescription, Lian's second sister-in-law used the following prescription, and begged Lian's second sister-in-law to help her to take care of Gu Youngmei, and the final payment was made by her cousin Lin Jingyu.

After reading it, she saw that there were two prescriptions under the letter. No matter what, it must be something special for the cousin of the Lin family to offer this as a favor.

She also understands the meaning of this cousin of the Lin family, to save people in an emergency, she really needs a son-in-law now, and she accepts his love.

After reading the two prescriptions, I saw that they were all inscribed 'barter'.Tell Ping'er to go out and inquire about this person, Ping'er thought about it for a long time.Surprisingly, he said, "Ma'am, Ping'er has heard of this person before."Ping'er's distant cousin and daughter-in-law are from Jiangnan. When Ping'er's aunt is not well, according to her opinion, if she can find Dr. Yi's aunt, she can save her.Ping'er was curious for a while, so he asked his cousin and daughter-in-law about it.I heard that this person is very respected in the Jiangnan area, and the world said "Hua Tuo is reborn", but his whereabouts are still uncertain. '

After hearing this, Wang Xifeng looked at the prescription in his hand and put it away carefully.There was joy on the face, and there was a surge of excitement in the heart.

Nanny Lin bowed to Wang Xifeng, took out a small and exquisite box on her body, and handed it to Wang Xifeng.Said: "In this case, I will trouble the second grandma. This is the girl's food and clothing."

Wang Xifeng saw Wang Momo salute, how could she accept it, her aunt would pay half the salute!Just as he was avoiding to return the salute, he saw Mother Lin's movements and froze there.Wang Xifeng didn't dare to take this, she hurriedly turned away, and said with a smile: "Nurse really loves to joke!"

Mother Jia, who was in a good mood, also changed her face immediately, and said angrily, "What are you doing with this? Why, my granddaughter is going to be a guest at my grandfather's house, and Lin Ruhai is afraid that others will deceive her to go?"

Jiamu's voice was like thunder on the ground, and everyone held back their breath and lowered their heads.Daiyu glanced at the things held in Nanny Lin's hands. She really didn't know these things. When she left, her brother just told her that he would make arrangements, so she shouldn't worry.

Daiyu stood up, went to Jia Mu, sat next to Jia Mu, and held Jia Mu's hand.She smiled and said: "Grandmother, I guess this is the filial piety of my father and elder brother? I think the mother didn't make it clear!"

Seeing what Daiyu said, Mother Lin hurriedly nodded her head in agreement, and patted herself on the head with an even more annoyed expression, saying, "Old lady, it's the woman who is confused, and the old slave didn't remember clearly. Second Mistress Lian should take it!" "

Jia's mother also knew that Nanny Lin was acting like this on purpose, and she remembered everything clearly from the beginning. How did she forget such a big thing when she got here?

Mother Jia understood that Nanny Lin was gagging, not only Mother Jia understood, but everyone in the room understood.

Wang Xifeng saw that the matter had been resolved, but Nanny Lin still insisted, seeing that Mother Jia did not object, she accepted it.

Jia's mother didn't know who lived in the high hall, but she still knew that the servants below liked to talk, and she also understood Uncle Lin's scruples.With that affection, she was still willing to lend a helping hand.It is said to send Buddha to the West!

Wang Xifeng opened the box in front of everyone.Seeing a thin piece of paper lying inside, she couldn't help exclaiming in a low voice: "1 taels—"

Because of Jia's mother's seizure just now, the room is quiet.So everyone in the room heard Wang Xifeng's surprised low cry.

This is equivalent to the expenditure of the entire Jia family for more than half a year, Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng, who are in charge of the family, secretly thought.

For the sake of tolerance, the masters didn't show any signs of surprise even if they were surprised.But the maidservant standing below is not so restrained.Straight to the eye, 1 taels, what is that concept?They won't be able to earn so much in the next life!How much can Miss Lin spend alone? !

Everyone looked at Daiyu even more differently, feeling in their hearts: The Lin family is really noble, and they don't look like mountains or dews, this is everyone's style!

After sending people to pack up the things, a few people gossip together.When talking about pastimes, Mother Jia asked, "Have you ever read a book?"

Daiyu remembered what her brother told her when she left, saying that her grandmother didn't like girls reading too much.After thinking for a while, he said: "I have only read "Nvjie" and "Biography of Women".

Seeing that Mother Jia's expression was not showing, she asked instead, "What books are the sisters reading?"

Jia Mu said inadvertently: "What book are you reading? It's just that you can read a few words, not a blind man with his eyes open."

Seeing that it was exactly as what her brother said, Daiyu was puzzled, but she just kept these things in her heart, with a slight smile on her face.

Daiyu was wondering secretly in her heart, when she heard footsteps outside the courtyard, a maid came in and said, "Baoyu is here!"
