Red Mansions: My Book is Cool

Chapter 181 I'm Not a Fairyland 26

If the mountain does not come, I will go to the mountain.Mother Jia had never heard of this sentence, but she actually put it into practice.Knowing that the Lin family siblings dislike the Jia family, she had no choice but to pretend not to understand.

It's just because the Jia family is not as good as before, and the trend of decline is becoming more and more obvious. She has experienced many things. Jia's team was wrong at the beginning, and the current emperor is disgusted and dissatisfied with them. How could she not know.Originally thought that the concubine in Yuanchun was willing to expose this layer now, so that the Jia family could prosper again, at least, they could live in peace.Therefore, the whole family spent huge sums of money to build the Grand View Garden. It was to save face for Yuanchun, and it was also done for the emperor to show the submission of the Jia family.Unexpectedly, the reality made her deeply disappointed.

Yuan Chun was not so prominent and respectable in the palace, in fact, Jia Mu already knew it in her heart.Which favored concubine and the eunuchs dare to go to her natal family who are rich?Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian complained unceasingly. When the Grand View Garden was built, the big house and Ningguo Mansion, which had paid out money, did not have much glory, and they were also upset.However, apart from continuing to support Yuanchun, does the Jia family have any other way out?Moreover, she felt a little guilty about Yuan Chun in her heart. If it wasn't for the future of Jia's family, she sent Yuan Chun to the palace.

The Jia family currently has no one who can support the family business. Among the original relatives, the Xue family has no news, and it is far away in Jinling; Without anyone, the future of the four major families is bleak.Jia's mother can only do everything she can to fight for it, and to hold on to the power that can help the Jia family.

Although Lin Daiyu and his brother were the only ones left in the Lin family, they hadn't fully revealed their grandeur, but they were like the rising sun, and the future could be seen.Lin Yatou is the county lord given by the emperor. Lin Chenxi was young, and she was selected as a scholar when she first entered the examination room. After all, the Lin family is a family of scholars.Therefore, the Lin family must win her over!Mother Jia regretted her short-sightedness in the past few years.

Wang Xifeng was ordered, and went to Lin's house with gifts.Mother Jia invited the brothers and sisters of the Lin family to have a reunion, and said that if they didn't come, then she would make it by coming to the Lin family herself.

Lin Daiyu found it extremely annoying, but right now the Lin family and the Jia family are not breaking faces openly, so it is not good to go too far.Mother Jia relied on her status and seniority, so she and Chen Xi could only socialize for a while.Fortunately, the Jia family has not been around for a few years.And from the Lin family, what else can they get?Knowing the tragic ending, Lin Daiyu was bored with the Jia family who were doomed to die, but also felt complicated. She was vigilant and slightly sympathetic, similar to how she feels for terminally ill patients.

On the appointed day, Lin Daiyu took Lin Chenxi and little Zhuer to Jia's house.This time, Lin Daiyu showed her support as the county lord, and she was about to show her power in front of Jia's family.They were greeted respectfully through the side door.

When Jia's mother saw them, she was very kind, and made Lin Daiyu feel uncomfortable when she greeted them with greetings.Little Zhu'er, who met for the first time, also received a decent greeting gift from Jia Mu, and everyone who accompanied her followed suit, and unpreparedly withdrew a bracelet or a string of beads, appearing very affectionate.

The only one who is not in harmony with this atmosphere is Mrs. Wang, who has always had a calm face. However, when chatting with them, she seemed to casually say, "I thought you would come to Rongguo Mansion to meet the old lady after you became a filial piety, old lady." My wife has been waiting at home for many days."

Lin Daiyu also immediately blocked back with a half-smile: "Second aunt, in the south of the Yangtze River, when someone pays filial piety, relatives from all walks of life will come to congratulate them. I have waited for a long time, but no one has been sent by the house. Maybe the capital city doesn’t have this habit, and there is a saying to ‘do as the Romans do when you come to the country’, so I didn’t dare to come to disturb my grandmother’s purity.”

"It turns out that the customs in the capital and in the south of the Yangtze River are actually the same?"

Mrs. Wang was blocked again, and Mother Jia looked at her displeasedly, so she shut her mouth and did not speak.The people below just said some homely things, and Lin Daiyu responded casually with a smile.Not seeing each other for three years, Mother Jia saw that Lin Daiyu was becoming more and more graceful and beautiful, and she secretly thought it was a pity.It will be several years before Lin Chenxi and Guan Guan, Baoyu can't wait, and Lin Daiyu will be old at that time.Alas, this matter has gone through a clear road in front of the emperor, but it is not easy to handle!

There is another reason that Jia's mother doesn't want to think about, that is, Lin Daiyu has a noble status and is very capable. Jia Baoyu has no advantage against her.If it is said that when she became a concubine in the early Yuanchun, she still had many beautiful fantasies. In the past few years, the Jia family tried every means to find a high-ranking marriage for Jia Baoyu, but they were repeatedly rejected.After repeated psychological blows, she finally understood that without the blessing of power and career prospects, the precious jade she was proud of was born with jade, handsome appearance and gentle temperament. Son-in-law's measure.

Mother Jia sighed secretly, so she didn't let Jia Baoyu come over today, and even the Sanchun sisters hesitated to call over.She also saw that Lin Daiyu didn't pretend to be polite to Jia Baoyu at all, and she was more than polite to Sanchun, not close enough, and she was extremely picky about etiquette and rules, she didn't want to cause her to create a gap.Lin Daiyu also asked the maid to present a gift, and she did not forget the Sanchun sisters, who are very considerate in dealing with people and things.

Thinking of Baoyu's marriage, Jia's mother regretted in her heart, turned her face and saw Lin Chenxi sitting beside her, and suddenly her heart moved.

Mother Jia asked Lin Chenxi about her studies and exams in a pleasant manner, sighed repeatedly, and said to Lin Daiyu with a smile: "Chenxi is a smart and hardworking child. I see that he will have great achievements in the future. Your father is under the nine springs." , I will also like it. But the future is long, even if you want to study hard, you can't push yourself too hard, there must be a time to have fun."

She said leisurely: "Yu'er, why don't you take the morning sun and stay with me for a few days, loosely. You haven't visited the Grand View Garden, right? The yard is empty, and it’s been cleaned very clean. You and Chen Xi each choose one to live in, and you can talk about the family happiness with your grandmother. Your second uncle was ordered to study politics. Chen Xi fell in love with each other, so uncle and nephew took this opportunity to have a good talk."

Wang Xifeng joked on the side: "Yes, sister Lin, there are many sisters in the family, everyone is talking and laughing, and they are also companions. Which yard you and brother Lin are optimistic about, I will let someone decorate it for you, and I promise you satisfy."

Jia Zheng is not even a scholar, but he was ordered to study politics?Lin Daiyu didn't think it was a good thing, it was like being roasted on the fire, she could imagine the exclusion and contempt that Jia Zhenghui would face.Nobility, foreign relatives, and being an official are things that scholars don't want to see. He has all three of them. If there is a slight difference, he will be the target of public criticism.Hearing the Jia family's tone of pride, Lin Daiyu didn't know if she didn't expect this, or felt that it was not such a coincidence, so Lin Daiyu kept silent.Jia's family will always come to an end, it's just a matter of being faster or slower; she can't save it, and she has no intention of saving the family who are always plotting against her.Lin Daiyu in the book is innocent and weak, and I didn't see that the Jia family couldn't bear her because of this blood relationship. Didn't she live a "360 days a year, the days of wind, knife, frost, and sword" , Finally died with hatred!

Seeing Mother Jia's hospitality, Lin Daiyu was a little puzzled at first.What else is there in the Lin family that she can covet?Want money?Three years later, Yuanshui may not be able to quench his thirst. Could it be that the Jia family doesn't even dislike thousands of taels of silver?Don't you just want to make up your own mind?Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang are willing to leave Jia Baoyu alone for so long?Although there are many beautiful maids around him, as long as he doesn't get married, he is still a bachelor in ancient times, so why should he be wronged by that phoenix egg?

But after Jia's mother mentioned Lin Chenxi several times indirectly, Lin Daiyu felt vigilant.Because of the description in the book, she was not afraid to speculate about the Jia family with the worst intentions.

"Grandmother, let's not stay here anymore. There are still many things to take care of at home, and I can't get away. One and a half years later, it will be Juren's autumn, and Chen Xi will have to try it, so I can't let it go. .Although he is not very old, but he is newly admitted as a scholar, and he might be able to work hard and achieve good results! Even if he fails to pass, it is also an exercise. Only after passing the exam will he know where his weaknesses are. " Lin Daiyu declined. .

"That's too urgent, and it's a waste of three or five days!" Jia Mu frowned, and retorted disapprovingly: "The last time I saw Chen Xi was three years ago. If you are not close, you will make people laugh if you say it!"

Lin Daiyu's face is not hesitant, she has been invited to come to the door today, isn't she satisfied after saving face?I really don't know what's going on with the Lin family and the Jia family, but I'm just annoyed by this kind of people who rely on the old and sell the old.

"Grandmother, Chenxi and I are really busy when we come here. We don't have parents to rely on, so naturally we have to work hard to support our family." Lin Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled, and decided to clarify the point, otherwise Jiamu could just pretend to be confused. : "More importantly, grandma, Chenxi is already thirteen this year. At this age, don't you have to worry about the defense of men and women? Even if he meets all the sisters in the garden, it is rude. Living in the garden, won't it damage the reputation of the sisters?"

When Jia Mu saw Lin Daiyu's eyes lightly falling on her body, there was a trace of thorough coldness in her indifference, as if her thoughts were invisible in front of her, she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart, and couldn't help feeling a little sad, and she missed her more and more. Jia Min is here.If she was alive, wouldn't Lin Daiyu and Lin Chenxi both obey their mother's order and get close to the Jia family?

"Grandmother loves me, and Chenxi and my sister are very grateful. However, when my father was seriously ill, all he wanted was for me to support the Lin family and inherit the reputation of my ancestors as a scholarly clan, so that I can protect my sister in the future. My grandmother also knew about my original background. My father and my sister have treated me with kindness again, and I will never let it down!" Seeing this, Lin Chenxi immediately stood up to rescue Lin Daiyu, he could not let Jiamu accuse Lin Daiyu, and his attitude was respectful but firm.Before entering Lin Ruhai's home, he was alone, and he had to drag the younger little Pearl. The environment was difficult. Compared with children of the same age, he was much more mature. He knew how to do it. Own.Lin Daiyu is the foundation of modern people, and she has always been wary of the Jia family, but her attitude is even tougher.

The siblings refused one by one, and the other explained euphemistically, but the general attitude was that they would not accept oil and salt.The reason for the partial birth is all tenable, and it is not easy for Jia Mu to force them to stay.In these years, it is rare for married daughters to return to their natal homes throughout the year, and there are many people around, let alone granddaughters?Besides, in the past three years, the methods of "planting rice in rice fields" and "mulberry fish ponds" presented by Lin Daiyu are of great benefit to people's livelihood, and Lin Daiyu has also been praised and appreciated by the royal family. , had no choice but to tell her reluctantly: "Then it's not easy for grandma to keep you. When you have free time, you must come to the house and walk around more!"

Lin Daiyu and Lin Chenxi only nodded with a smile, neither objecting nor agreeing. When Jia Mu saw this, her heart froze again and she sighed silently.

After leaving the gate of Rongguo Mansion, Lin Daiyu and Lin Chenxi let out a sigh of relief at the same time.Lin Daiyu looked at little Zhuer who was chatting with her about what she had seen and heard today, and smiled sweetly. The only person who was really relaxed and happy today was little Zhuer.
