Red Mansions: My Book is Cool

Chapter 184 I'm Not a Fairyland 29

Lin Daiyu smiled slightly when she received the post from Jia's family.Well, this time the Jia family is finally talking about the rules, but this time they came here so solemnly, but the intention is very good!Lin Daiyu didn't believe that they just came to congratulate Lin Chenxi sincerely.So who is their target, themselves, or Chen Xi?

But no matter who it is, their wishful thinking is doomed to fail.Lin Daiyu, who knew the virtues of the Jia family well from the book, took all the precautionary measures she could think of before they knew about it, whether it was the arrangement of the Lin family's wealth, or the relationship between herself and Lin Chenxi. You can control your life in your own hands and not be kidnapped by the Jia family with family affection and identity.

"Since Mrs. Jia wants to come to congratulate you in person, Chen Xi, then we should treat you warmly." Lin Daiyu said to Lin Chenxi: "It's just that if you don't have anything to go to the Three Treasures Hall, what they want, then you don't know what they want." You have to understand, think carefully about how to deal with it.” —— Lin Chenxi Since she is determined to revitalize the Lin family and wants to take the imperial examination career, then she must ‘If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight! '.On this road, he will experience a lot of darkness and treachery, he can know the world without the world, and maintain his own heart, but he must not be a weak and conceded idiot, because idiot has no possibility of success.For example, although Lin Ruhai is a refined gentleman, he was able to serve as a salt censor for many years, and he was able to retire unscathed in the end, which shows that he is also a powerful person with a deep heart.

Lin Chenxi nodded silently. Even when he was relatively young a few years ago, Lin Daiyu always showed him the real situation and did not treat him like an ignorant child.She also explained to him the reasons for her plans and arrangements for the Lin family.

Facts have proved that this sister's vision and intelligence are outstanding. Although his father is gone, the Lin family's property is still growing and becoming more and more prosperous, which makes him very admired.His original family, since his biological father died, the family has been in a slump, and his mother left him to remarry because she couldn't bear the embarrassing life at home.In the eyes of others, this kind of situation is a very normal thing. Without the pillars of the family, it is naturally difficult to live.But what his sister did completely broke his understanding, so he was extremely convinced of Lin Daiyu.Seeing that Lin Daiyu had to contend with her natal family for her own sake, she was even more grateful in her heart.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day after tomorrow. Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, and Wang Xifeng, together with well-dressed Jia Yingchun and Jia Tanchun, arrived at the Lin Mansion in a mighty sedan chair.Lin Daiyu led Lin Zhu to welcome them into the flower hall, and invited Jia Mu to take the seat, and she herself sat down to accompany them. The etiquette was not bad at all.

The servants served fragrant tea, and Lin Daiyu politely thanked Jia's family for their concern for Lin Chenxi, while quietly observing Jia Yingchun and Jia Tanchun.They came here very abruptly today, and Lin Daiyu understood most of it in her heart.

The dresses of the two are very delicate, and the clothes and jewelry are all high-quality, which is quite different from the usual ones.Of these two women, one is gentle and beautiful, and is amiable to look at;Thinking of their tragic ending in the book, Lin Daiyu couldn't help feeling compassionate.

However, Lin Daiyu found some traces at a glance. The expression on Yingchun Tanchun's face was full of anticipation, and also a little uneasy, with a faint blush on her face. Know something.

Lin Daiyu sighed slightly in her heart.Sorry, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you!

Although she had some sympathy for them in her heart, she didn't want to use Lin Chenxi's happiness to save her.They are very nice and innocent, but the Jia family behind them is a bottomless quagmire, no, it is a people-eating swamp!Ever since she came to this world, she knew the tragic fate of the original owner, and tried her best to break free. How can there be any reason to rush into it again?

"Sister Lin, why don't you see Brother Chenxi? We are here to congratulate him, how could he not be here?" Wang Xifeng asked with a smile on behalf of Jiamu.

Lin Daiyu replied calmly: "He has been waiting for his grandmother in his yard for a long time. But, I heard that the two younger sisters are here, so I am embarrassed to come."

"What does that matter?" Jia's mother frowned, "We are all a family, so why be so taboo about it. Baoyu wanted to come together today, but he was temporarily invited by Prince Beijing, so it's not easy to refuse, otherwise, why would he be so taboo?" Isn't it that you can't entertain us?"

Lin Daiyu just smiled, not wanting to argue with Jia Mu, turned her head and smiled at Erchun sisters: "Sister Yingchun, sister Tanchun, the Grand View Garden where you live is an excellent place, and the Lin family can't compare it. But the Lin family's The garden is modeled after the gardens in the south of the Yangtze River, which are quite different from those in the north, let sister Zhu'er take you to see it?"

Lin Zhu was also very clever, and immediately got up and smiled, "Sister Jia, I'm from the south, so I can be a guide and explain a thing or two to you."

Jia Yingchun and Jia Tanchun got up shyly, glanced at Jia's mother, saw her nod her head slightly, and went out with Lin Zhu obediently.They also had a vague idea of ​​Jia Mu's plan, and they were willing in their hearts. Lin Chenxi was an excellent marriage partner for them, and to be honest, they were the ones who made the move.But seeing Lin Chenxi like this is inappropriate, it's against the rules, and it seems that my sisters are a little too late, and their prices have fallen, and their sisters also have self-esteem!

After Erchun sisters left, Lin Daiyu winked at Xueyan and told her to go out and send someone to invite Lin Chenxi.

Seeing Lin Daiyu's impeccable work, Jia's mother hesitated, and said tentatively, "Yu'er, Chenxi's promotion is a great joy. Your father and Min'er will be very happy if they know about it. However, Chenxi is 15 years old this year, right?" ?”

"Grandmother's memory is very good. In another month, Chenxi will be fifteen."—Finally we got to the point.

"A 15-year-old Juren is really rare!" Jia's mother thought of Jia Baoyu, sincerely sighed once, and her heart became more eager.

She frowned: "Of course, Chen Xi will continue to take the Jinshi exam, but I'm afraid it won't be a day's work! As the saying goes, if you start a family and start a career, if you win the Juren, your career will also be established, but starting a family should not be delayed because of this." It's done. The marriage has been agreed, and it will take a long time to prepare. When he can actually get married, he will be at the right age, so we have to make plans now. The incense of the Lin family falls on him, so don't be careless!"

"Chenxi is only 15 years old, so I'm not in a hurry!" Lin Daiyu said calmly, "He is now concentrating on the scientific examination, saying that his father is Tanhualang. Don't embarrass my father, I haven't thought about marrying a wife for the time being. I'm thinking, his wife will be the head of the Lin family in the future. She has a noble status and a great responsibility. If she can support the Lin family business, she must be careful. Choose, choose a good woman with all four corners, but there is no rush! If Chen Xi can go a step further in Chunwei and become a second-class Jinshi, then he has more room for choice."

"To tell the truth from my grandmother, after the morning ceremony, someone expressed their intention to get married." Lin Daiyu looked at Jia's mother, and added leisurely: "But I politely declined. Guozijian sacrificed wine to Mr. Kong and Mrs. My father’s friends have all suggested to me that we might as well wait until after Chenxi has become a Jinshi to discuss marriage. They are willing to help Chenxi find a good woman who is beautiful, intelligent, well-educated, and well-matched. My father also hoped that his future daughter-in-law would be born From a scholarly family."

Hearing this, the faces of the women in Jia's family became ugly.Such a statement clearly squeezed out all the girls of Jia's family, and there was no hope.

Not in a hurry to get married?Is it that easy to become a Jinshi?Once every three years, can you win once?Lin Chenxi can afford to wait, even if he is only 30 years old, he is still a "few Jinshi". In addition to his talent, appearance and family background, he has to worry about being "under the list to catch his son-in-law". Hua Zhinian's daughters are willing to marry him.But can the girl from the Jia family afford to wait?

What's even more frustrating is that they are in the right family, a scholarly family!The Jia family is not a scholarly family, but a declining martial arts family.The civil servants didn't look down on Xungui at all, and they didn't have much contact with Wu Xun.Back then, Jia Min was able to marry Lin Ruhai because Jia Daishan was still alive. The Jia family was in its heyday and had a close relationship with the Supreme Emperor. However, Lin Ruhai's father died young and he was dependent on his mother. He also hoped to get the support of the Jia family. The two sides complement each other. Everyone has their own needs, and this has made Lin Jia's marriage.

But in today's Jia family, everyone knows in their hearts that they can't give Lin Chenxi any help. They need the Lin family, but the Lin family doesn't need them at all!

What's more, the identities of Jia Yingchun and Jia Tanchun!

Could it be that Lin Daiyu was aware of her own thoughts and deliberately said this to gag her?Seeing that Lin Chenxi hadn't arrived yet, Jia's mother was determined and cut straight to the point.

"Yu'er, what do you think about your elder sister Yingchun and younger sister Tanchun pairing with brother Chenxi? Choose one between them as you and Chenxi like. If they are still young and Chenxi wants to concentrate on the scientific research, that's not okay." Problem. You don’t need to get married right away, but first decide on the marriage, sign the marriage certificate, and take care of it slowly, and wait for two or three years.” ——Two years later, the Lin family’s property will be at their own disposal, and that’s when It's a good time to get married, otherwise the dowry will be shabby and inappropriate!The Lin family is a noble family, as long as they get engaged, there is no reason to regret the marriage except for very fair reasons, otherwise their reputation will be ruined!Mother Jia was very shrewd in her calculations.

"Hehe, you really dare to speak!" Lin Daiyu pretended to be extremely surprised, her eyes widened, and she looked straight at Jia Mu, as if she was too shocked to recover.

After a while, she looked around the Jia family, her face darkened: "Is grandma joking with me?"

"Of course not!" Jia's mother's voice also became severe. She was a little ashamed to be asked by Lin Daiyu, but also to hide her guilt: "Why, do you think your sisters Yingchun and Tanchun are not worthy of Chenxi?"

"Naturally not worthy!" Lin Daiyu said coldly: "My father is a posthumous third-rank official. Chenxi has become a Juren at the age of 15, and it is only a matter of time before he becomes a Jinshi. In the hearts of the emperor, the Lin family is also a trustworthy and loyal minister. , the future is bright!"

"Under such circumstances, you want to assign the concubine daughter of the vacant general and the fifth-rank official to the future head of the Lin family, and be the head mother of the Lin family?" Lin Daiyu stood up abruptly, and sneered coldly: "Grandmother really thinks that my siblings have nothing to do with me?" People rely on, but orphans can be bullied?"

"Miss, what are you doing!" Mrs. Wang accused unhappily beside her: "Being so rude to my grandmother. Is it also the rule of your Lin family? General with a false rank, a fifth-rank official, did you say that to your uncle?" Well, mother and uncle, don't you know?"

"Second Wife, did I say something wrong?" Lin Daiyu planned to tear her face apart today. She had endured this group of malicious vampires for a long time, and she no longer called Mrs. Wang her aunt.

"Officials and eunuchs pay attention to a 'right family' when they get married, right? Isn't the eldest master in the house a false general, and the second master is not a fifth-rank official? Are the sisters Yingchun and Tanchun concubines? In this situation, you dare to be like me. The general family of the Lin family, maybe someone who is slightly worse than my Lin family, talk about marriage? I’m afraid, it’s not a marriage, it’s an enmity! Even if you shut your doors and self-esteem, the nobles in the capital will not be so confused as to help you. Are you mediators?"
