Red Mansions: My Book is Cool

Lin Daiyu began to learn the housekeeper's affairs.She gradually felt that in ancient times, the head of a housewife actually had a lot of burdens on her shoulders. The so-called housekeeper not only had to arrange the daily life of the whole family, but also not to be sloppy with food, clothing, housing and transportation; more importantly, she had to be able to take care of the house. karma, that is the fundamental.Just like in "Dream of Red Mansions", Wang Xifeng only manages the affairs of Jia's house, so she wakes up at five o'clock and sleeps at three o'clock. Don't be idle.This couple can be regarded as the busiest couple in the Jia family. In the end, they all made wedding clothes for others!Even if Jia's family doesn't raid the house, they might end up bad!Lin Daiyu sighed for them.

Excluding the factors of external political changes, in ordinary years, the big family will prosper and the family business will become more and more prosperous in the hands of a shrewd and capable mistress, because it is a process of "making money with money" and the continuous accumulation of capital.But if the mistress is ignorant and ignorant of the world, the consumption will be extremely fast, because the subordinates and others will take the opportunity to change the way to get money from the family to suck blood, no matter how thick the family is, it will not be able to resist the erosion of moths.What's more, the wife of an official family has to take on the responsibility of the wife's diplomacy in the inner house. It is indispensable to socialize with the female relatives of the boss, colleagues, and friends. It is the same in ancient and modern times.

Therefore, although the daughters of famous families do not have to study the Four Books and Five Classics as hard as their brothers, they still have to study and exercise with their mothers and nuns all day long, so they have no time to relax.Lin Daiyu believes that such carefully cultivated women will not be inferior even if they are placed in modern society and supplemented with modern knowledge.In the book, Shi Xiangyun didn't know how to pawn tickets, and Jia Yingchun was helpless when the nanny stole the jewelry, which is really absurd!

How such a lady will be in charge of the family in the future, which family will be willing to accept it, people in the upper class are very well informed.Throughout the book, the girls of Jia's family have also learned some talents in chess, piano, calligraphy and painting, but obviously, no one has seriously taught them the skills of housekeeping. Li Wan is only responsible for leading them to be needlework girls.This is very strange. Doesn't Jia's mother, as the wife of the Duke, have no knowledge of this, or does she actually have her own arrangements for the future of the girls in the Jia family?If you think about it, you will be afraid!

Jia Yucun felt very keenly that her female students were slowly changing.In the past, Lin Daiyu only liked poems and songs, and also learned something like "Four Books", but now she asks him to talk more about history books and economics.When Jia Yucun communicated with him, he observed the situation of his housekeeper, and seeing his calm and straightforward side, he couldn't help but secretly marveled.But he didn't think about other aspects. When a person encounters a big change, there will naturally be some changes.Just like myself, when I first entered the official career, I was upright and unruly, and I didn't want to be in the world, but the end was dismissed from office and returned to my hometown.If I have another chance to recover, I will definitely change my past style, and I will never be as stupid as before.

Although Jia Yucun's character is poor, he is indeed a person with real skills. When teaching, he is also very dedicated and never hides his secrets.Lin Daiyu studied one-on-one with him, and after a few months of hard work, she felt that she had benefited a lot. Jia Baoyu couldn't avoid the saying, "An insight into the world is knowledge, and understanding of human feelings is an article," but Lin Daiyu thought it made sense.Baoyu, when you see such a worldly sister Lin in the future, will you still feel that your hearts are connected?

After Jia Min's funeral was finished with dignity, Lin Daiyu also began to transfer Jia Min's confidantes and companions out of the mansion without any trace, in name of arranging a better place for them.Although these people have been in the Lin family for many years, it is inevitable that there are still relatives staying in the Jia family. The intertwined relationships may not necessarily harm the interests of the Lin family for the sake of the Jia family.

A few months later, the Jia family sent another person and brought a letter written by Jia's mother. In the letter, Jia Min was deeply missed, and Lin Daiyu was not educated according to the list. She went to Rongguo Mansion to raise and teach herself, saying that it would be good for Lin Daiyu's future marriage.

As the granddaughter of Jia's mother, Lin Daiyu met the servants of Jia's family in person.Sure enough, the ones sent by the Jia family were just third-class servants, just like what was written in the book.Lin Daiyu showed a very admiring attitude, and in the name of caring about Jia's mother, she slowly got rid of them.These third-class servants are not as shrewd and discerning as the lady in charge. Seeing that Lin Daiyu is young, she is expected to be a little girl who is not very sensible, so there is no need to worry so much.They only wanted to answer Miss Lin's words well. If Miss Lin was satisfied, she would naturally reward her more, so they said a lot without knowing it.

After they thanked them happily, Lin Daiyu also knew a lot of things she wanted to know.She also ordered Wang Momo and the housekeeper to treat the Jia family warmly and separately.For a while, the servants of the Lin family and the servants of the Jia family mingled together, pushing glasses and changing glasses on the wine table. When they were intimate, they would inevitably chat about some truths.These words will eventually be reported to the ears of Lin Daiyu and Lin Ruhai. Lin Ruhai is also very concerned about this, so he acquiesced to the old housekeeper's proposal (actually Lin Daiyu's idea).

Lin Ruhai's face darkened after hearing the old housekeeper's report.Jia Baoyu, who was born with jade in his mouth, is extremely stubborn, hates reading, and likes hanging out in the inner room; he and his sisters live in the grandmother's yard, and he doesn't care about the difference between men and women; the second master Bao likes clean daughters the most. They are all young and beautiful maids, especially like to eat the rouge on their lips, including the old lady and the one in the wife’s room, no exception;

It's so unruly!In this day and age, even the biological brothers and sisters of official families have to live in separate yards, not to mention that the Jia brothers and sisters are only cousins!Back then, Jia Min lived far away from Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng.Can the maids around the elders be frivolous?So disregarding etiquette, if his daughter went to Rongguo Mansion and said that he lived and ate with Jia Baoyu, what good reputation would there be?Compared with losing the mother and the eldest daughter, the situation is ten times worse!

Lin Ruhai was furious. Is this what Mother Jia kept saying about loving her granddaughter?Then thinking that the Jia family only sent a third-class maid who was not on the stage to pick up Lin Daiyu, and it was obvious that they did not take the Lin family seriously, he became even more angry.

At this moment, infinite fantasies arose in his mind: Since the Jia family did not love Lin Daiyu as much as they said, then why did they repeatedly pick her up in the capital to raise her?Did he just want to use Lin Daiyu to maintain the relationship between the Lin and Jia families, or did he have other plans, such as taking a fancy to his Lin family's family business?

The Lin family has five generations of princes and three generations of single heirs. Of course, Lin Ruhai knows how rich his family's family is.He knew, and Jia Min, who had been the mistress of the Lin family for many years, naturally knew too, so would the Jia family know?Even if Jia Min didn't disclose it, the Jia family can see it from the generous gifts they send to the capital every year.So, is this the Jia family's idea?However, the Jia family in Lin Ruhai's impression was still the grand mansion of the Duke, and what he heard from his wife were all praise and boasting about the Jia family. Why did the Jia family come to this?

Lin Ruhai was a little uncertain. He was going to write a few letters and send his confidantes to Beijing to send them to friends he had made in the past to inquire about the real situation and evaluation of the Jia family before making a decision.

Lin Ruhai was thinking about how to send Jia's servants back, how to find a suitable reason to reject Jia's mother's kindness, so as to appear respectful and reasonable, after all, those speculations cannot be made public.Otherwise, people would talk about how soon after his wife died, he turned against Yue's family and was ruthless. What's more, when Jia Min married him, it seemed to outsiders that he was married. Jia Daishan was still a prominent and honorable Duke Rong.Although, he later felt that this marriage was an unpredictable marriage for him, so everyone in Shilin secretly alienated him because of this.People's words are awesome, especially for scholars!

Lin Ruhai couldn't help confiding this concern to the confidant butler. The butler saw the girl's recent changes, thought about it, and told Mother Wang what Lin Ruhai had said.Then, Lin Daiyu naturally knew about it.

Within two days, Lin Daiyu fell ill. She only said that she had a splitting headache, her heart was pounding, and she couldn't breathe. She lay dying on the bed and couldn't get up.The Lin family was startled by her sudden illness, so they quickly invited a famous doctor to come for a diagnosis and treatment, but the doctor couldn't tell the reason after the pulse diagnosis, so they had to prescribe a recuperation prescription to let her rest well.

The servants of Jia's family also panicked. If Lin Daiyu was really seriously ill, how could she go back to Beijing with them? How could they have a business with the old lady?

The leading servants discussed for a while, and decided to pay Lin Daiyu's greetings together in the name of visiting a doctor, and see her condition with their own eyes.If it is convenient, tell her about the old lady's love for the calf and her love for her mother, and encourage her to go to the capital to take care of her mother and do her filial piety.

So, they saw with their own eyes that Lin Daiyu was pale, short of breath and weak, she couldn't support herself after a few words, and she lay back on the bed under the care of the maids, which was very different from what they saw a while ago.

They secretly groaned.Lin Daiyu expressed to them her sincerity of wanting to be a filial piety for Jia's mother, but at this moment, they completely forgot the original intention when they came, and dared not accept it casually. They just let Miss Lin rest with a smile on her face.Lin Daiyu's sick appearance is really frightening. If she takes such a sick child on the road, is she afraid she won't die on the road?At that time, even if they have a hundred lives, they will not be able to pay for it, and the whole family will suffer!

In private, the servants of the Lin family who had been friends with them secretly told them that the girl had been in poor health since she was a child, and no matter how many doctors she had invited to see her, it didn't help.When she was three years old, a monk came to Hualin Daiyu to become a monk, but the master and wife naturally refused and drove them away.Before leaving, they said again, if they are not willing to part with the girl, they are afraid that the girl's illness will never be cured for the rest of her life.If you want to have a good time, unless you are not allowed to see crying from now on; except for your parents, all relatives and friends with other surnames will not be seen, so that you can live in peace in this life.It turned out that the girl's health has improved some time ago, she can eat well, and she walks in the garden with the master for hours every day, her face is full of blood.Why did she become so ill immediately after you came?Amitabha, it seems that the monk's words are reasonable!

The servants of Jia's family were shocked when they heard this, but they didn't know what to do.When they were in a dilemma, Lin Ruhai called them to go and told them that Lin Daiyu's health was really bad and she should stay in Jiangnan to recuperate.If I went to the capital, I was afraid that the water and soil would not be acclimatized, and with the prophecies of the monks and Taoists at that time, something unbearable would happen.Now he only has this one flesh and blood, and he absolutely dare not take risks.He has already edited a book, and the reason is explained in the letter, they can take it back to the old lady as much as possible.The old lady is reasonable and caring for the younger generation, she will definitely understand his love for daughters, and will not blame them.

In addition, the Lin family has prepared a generous gift for the old lady, and it is the Lin family's best wishes for you to bring it to the old lady.It won't be too late to perform filial piety until the girl's health improves.

After receiving Lin Ruhai's reply, the servants of Jia's family breathed a sigh of relief, both joyful and panicked, boarded the return ship and left Yangzhou.

Lin Daiyu, as a well-behaved and filial girl from the Lin family, specially asked Mother Wang to see them off, with all the etiquette.

She got up from the bed with a smile on her face, sat in front of the clear water chestnut mirror, and gently wiped off the makeup on her face with the wet towel brought by the snow geese.These days, she has been wearing a kind of makeup: makeup soon!

When I was in college, a young lady in the same dormitory was a master of makeup, and my mother was a professional makeup artist. The young lady also learned from her since she was a child.At that time, she would often contribute her own face to the little sister to practice her hands, and she could also put on good makeup after being influenced by her ears and eyes.After work, in addition to her job, she also thought about being a beauty blogger. As a side job, she recorded a few videos, and the response was not bad.Just when she was about to make persistent efforts, she inexplicably transmigrated into "A Dream of Red Mansions".

It can be seen that art is not overwhelming, what you have learned and worked hard will show its effect one day!Lin Daiyu sighed, and smiled brightly at herself in the mirror.

As soon as Lin Daiyu entered the Rongguo Mansion, the plot initially changed!
