Red Mansions: My Book is Cool

In addition to being unwilling, Lin Baifu was more worried about Lin Daiyu's situation.Before Lin Ruhai was alive, he did not expect any more from Lin Mingan, as if he had resigned to his fate.When he was thinking about writing the will, he proposed to Lin Ruhai that he also asked the emperor to grant Lin Mingan and the two families.They have already donated such a large sum of wealth, so why is it not enough to ask for the continuation of the Lin family's incense?The emperor will do this favorably.

Lin Ruhai just shook his head and sighed, but did not answer his question.When he was still able to support his body, he was specially released into slavery, gave him a large sum of money, and secretly gave him two Zhuangzi, so that he could live the rest of his life in peace without worrying about food and clothing.

Lin Ruhai's only request to him is to let him go to the capital as a good citizen to continue to be the housekeeper of the Lin family, and to keep his only daughter, Daiyu.

His mother is Lin Ruhai's nurse, and he has known Lin Ruhai since childhood.After he grew up, under the support of Lin Ruhai, he went from being a book boy all the way to becoming the chief steward of the Lin family. He was extremely trusted and respected, so he really had deep feelings for the Lin family.Now that Lin Ruhai has passed away, after he was sad, he only focused on Miss Weiwei, living up to the master's trust.

After thinking about it, Lin Baifu felt that relying on his own strength alone was not enough, and no one would take him seriously.There is only one way—to borrow strength!With the help of others, the Jia family has some scruples!

The Lin clan is far away in the south of the Yangtze River, and the far water cannot save the near fire!Besides, people may not be willing to intervene!Then, the best choice is Lin Qing and Lin Ming'an's family!

Although a little guilty, Lin Baifu still made up his mind.He thought, now he doesn't want Lin Mingan to go back, but just wants to ease the relationship with them, and try to let them come out to make a little show of favor with the young lady, and act closer.Remind the Jia family that the young lady still has family members who care about her, she is not a helpless orphan girl who can let the Jia family do what she wants!

To put it more deeply, in a few years, the young lady will have a kiss, and the one who is so promising is actually her elder brother's clan brother. Others are thinking in their hearts, they always have to take a high look.At that time, people attached great importance to the clan, and it was reasonable for clansmen to take care of each other.What's more, even though Lin Ming'an succeeded him, the blood relationship cannot be erased.

So, Lin Baifu made up his mind, and went back to Zhuangzi that day, and carefully selected the best vegetables and fruits, various dried vegetables, cured fish and so on.A few days later, I packed a whole car and drove to the Imperial College with two defendants.When he reached the door, he loudly asked the porters to inform Jiancheng Lin Qing that the people from Gusu had brought him local products.

As soon as he saw Lin Qing, Lin Baifu immediately went up to greet him respectfully: "Master Qing, my girl greets Master Qing! This is from my own farm, it is not worth much, it is just my girl's wish. To Mrs. Qing, Ming Young Master An and Xiangjun have a taste of something new, and it is also a bond of fellowship!"

After finishing speaking, he motioned to the people following him to bring up the things, and he muttered: "Master Qing, do you want them to send these things to your house? Alas, I heard that your Earl's Mansion has not been repaired. The house you live in now I don’t know where the villain is, or I’ll just go there, so I don’t need to come to the Imperial College to disturb your business. My lady also wants to pay her respects to the uncle and aunt of the family. Speaking of which, the lady has not been lucky enough to meet you Have you met before? It's just that the young lady is still keeping her filial piety, and she is afraid that she will lose her father and mother and cause people's taboo, so she dare not come to disturb her!"

This pushed Lin Qing to the south wall, his face flushed red and he was extremely embarrassed.A girl from the younger generation who lost her parents, thinking about you as an elder, took the initiative to send you something to show her favor, what can you do?Ordinarily, it should be you who took the initiative to care and take care of it!If you put on a straight face again and sternly refuse, it will only shock and disdain everyone, thinking that you are inhumane.

If the two of you really have a deep hatred, then everyone can understand.But on the surface, Lin Ruhai and Lin Qing did not turn their faces.There are many inside stories that cannot be disclosed.Confucianism pays attention to the concealment of relatives. If you take the initiative to expose the scandal of your deceased brother, others will criticize you.

Now there are some people who know about Lin Mingan's background.As Lin Mingan became more and more promising, it was impossible to keep this secret completely, and anyone who cared could always find out.

In the eyes of others, your Lin Qing family has taken advantage of it, and Lin Mingan and Lin Daiyu are related by blood after all.If the two have never been in touch, people may not remember it.But now, Lin Daiyu took the initiative to show her kindness and cared about this relative. If your family ignores her, she will be criticized by others.What's more, this is the Guozijian, the place where morality and etiquette are the most important, and these are even stricter.

It's nothing more than myself, it's a big deal to resign!But for An Ge'er's sake, he had to be cautious.Lin Qing was concerned about this, so she tried her best to hold back the irritability in her heart, forced a smile, and came forward to greet Lin Baifu.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Lin Baifu didn't say much, he just respectfully greeted An and said some homely things.

When Lin Qing mentioned Lin Daiyu, he said: Miss lives in Jia's house, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs has rewarded her as a nurturing nun.The Jia family is also concerned about Miss Jin's upbringing. Now they copy Buddhist scriptures and pray for the deceased masters and wives all day long.However, the lady is too sad, and she is strict in keeping her filial piety. If you don't touch meat, you will lose your health.He was very worried, but he didn't have the right status to persuade him.I also ask Mrs. Lin and Mr. Lin Xiang to visit once or twice when I have time because my master only left this bloodline!In this way, the master can feel at ease under the Nine Springs!

Lin Qing was silent for a moment, and changed the topic.Seeing this, Lin Baifu didn't force himself, stayed for a while, and left by himself.

After Lin Qing returned home, she told Mrs. Chen what happened today, and the two discussed together.Lin Ming'an was busy at both the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so he rarely had time at home.The two felt sorry for his hard work, and decided to keep this matter from him for the time being, lest he be troubled, or recall the past, and feel uncomfortable.

According to the analysis of the two, what Lin Baifu said inside and outside the meaning seems to be that Lin Daiyu's life in Jia's house is not satisfactory.So, Lin Qing's move is to let them help?They were suspicious and could not make up their minds.

Lin Qing told Song Song to hurry up and find out.The servants of the Rongguo Mansion never kept their master's secrets. Song Song spent some scraps of silver and copper coins and got the information he wanted to know from them without much trouble.

It seems that Lin Ruhai's daughter didn't get much kindness from her grandmother and uncle's house.The two couldn't help sighing, wondering whether Jia Min would regret what he did in the past if he knew it underground?It's really like lightning, karma has retribution!

The two of them had no enmity with Lin Daiyu, and the girl's background was very pitiful.If this person is someone else, they are both kind people, and if the clan members are in difficulties, they will definitely help them out.However, when thinking about Lin Daiyu's life experience, both of them hesitated.

Not to mention, what An Geer would think in his heart, although Lin Daiyu was innocent, Jia Min's daughter was enough to make An Geer feel disgusted.If he really helped her, would he cause An Ge'er trouble?

The Jia family was disgruntled because of the face-sweeping. What's more troublesome is that they took the opportunity to entangle them.An Ge'er now has a bright future, Song Song came back from the Ministry of Internal Affairs that day, and brought back a large reward from him.Song Song also excitedly relayed the words of the director of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.When it comes to Prince Zhongshun and the imperial court's kindness and respect for the young master, all the people in Lin's mansion, whether they are masters or servants, are honored and deeply proud of it.

They understood that all of this was painstakingly planned and fought for by An Ge'er. The painstaking efforts of more than ten years must not be harmed!No matter how innocent and pitiful Lin Daiyu feels, she is not as important as Ang Geer.However, if it is ignored, will it damage An Ge'er's reputation if this matter spreads?

Just when the husband and wife were entangled in every possible way, Lin Baifu sent things to the Imperial College twice, which aroused the attention and discussion of some people.This news soon reached Lin Mingan's ears.

Lin Ming'an is concentrating on developing new textile machines, and he still needs to find time to check the situation of the textile workshop. He is so busy that he sometimes doesn't go home for a few days.Therefore, he did not know about Lin Baifu's movements immediately.

Somewhat late!Lin Mingan thought regretfully, if he had done it earlier, he would have been able to take care of Lin Baifu.He doesn't like people to plot against him and his family. Lin Baifu is undoubtedly a loyal servant to Lin Ruhai and Lin Daiyu.But for me, it is an unpleasant trouble!Everyone's position is different, and the conclusions are naturally different.

But since it is already like this, there is no need to worry too much.This is not a big deal, it's just an unpleasant trouble, and it's incomparable to what I encountered in my previous life.

"In that case, I'll go see him, so that he doesn't keep wandering around in front of us, it's better to solve it earlier." Lin Mingan said leisurely.Strangely, facing Lin Baifu's secret calculations, he was so relaxed that he didn't even feel any resentment. It was nothing like the feeling he had when facing Lin Ruhai back then.

After thinking about it carefully, Lin Mingan suddenly understood.That's because he is no longer the Lin Ming'an of the past!Today, he showed his talents for the first time, with a promising future, and he has firmly gained the upper hand.When a person is in a superior position and can stand on a high place and look down, everything is calm and he doesn't care too much.Because, at this moment, he is strong!

When Lin Ruhai was high and powerful, it brought him a deep sense of oppression, and he had to mobilize all his energy to resist.For all his razor-sharp performances at the time, he was still underdog status.Now, Lin Baifu is thinking of ways to lure him into the ravine, which shows that he already has enough strength, like a big tree with solid roots, which cannot be shaken, and can only be calculated in a roundabout way.Lin Mingan was a little annoyed, but more than that, he felt happy and proud that his years of hard work were not in vain.

Lin Qing was taken aback for a moment, and then asked worriedly: "Brother An, you don't want to do something stupid, do you? You said: Ruci doesn't touch broken jars!"

Lin Mingan couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Father, don't you think I'm going to buy murder to hurt people! Don't worry, the older you are, the less courageous you are!"

"Could it be that you are asking for help from Lord Zhongshun?"—If so, cleaning up Lin Baifu is a matter of one word.But Lin Qing has always been a kind person. Although he is disgusted with Lin Baifu in his heart, he still respects him for being loyal to the master.If he was imprisoned or otherwise, it would be unbearable, and it would be ugly to spread the word.But if Lin Baifu is against An Ge'er, he will never indulge.Therefore, he felt a bit in a dilemma.

"That's not true! Dad, I just want to explain it to him. If you are worried, just let him come to see us."

But less than a year!When Lin Baifu saw Lin Mingan again, he was in a daze.Lin Ming'an began to gather a calm and sharp demeanor, not angry but majestic.A faint look swept over him, as if all his calculations were clearly revealed in front of his eyes, it was not worth mentioning.Yes, he was a remarkable man, from childhood!Lin Mingan once again felt sorry for Lin Ruhai.

"Lin Baifu, you made a fuss about this to make us stand out for Lin Daiyu, isn't that right?" Lin Mingan asked directly, with a calm tone.

"Master Qing, Master An, there is really nothing the villain can do, I can only hope for your help!" Lin Baifu smiled wryly and described the Jia family's treatment of Lin Daiyu in detail, and begged: "Anyway, miss The only blood of the master, the villain can't just watch her have an accident. The young lady has always been weak in body and has a deep mind, I am afraid that she will not be able to bear it, it is the fault of the villain!" He honestly bowed his head and admitted his mistake, now Lin Ming'an and his son really couldn't be blamed.

Lin Mingan smiled: "When I threatened Lin Ruhai before, it was the Jia family who used it first! It's ironic! If Jia Min has a spirit behind him and can see it with his own eyes, what would he think?"

Lin Baifu said urgently: "Please look at the bloodline..." He looked at Lin Mingan's half-smile expression, and changed his words in a murmur: "For the sake of fellowship, don't bear grudges against Miss!"

"That's right!" Lin Mingan praised, "Aside from this point, we can talk about things calmly!"

"Actually, I don't hold any grudges against Lin Daiyu." Lin Ming'an said lightly, "I just don't allow others to ask me to serve her as a matter of course. To me, she is just an ordinary sister from a distant family. Since she was born, according to the etiquette, we They are no longer brothers and sisters, do you understand?"

"If I were just an ordinary citizen, I could completely ignore her. But since I have become an official and enjoy the wealth and power that ordinary people do not have, the world's standards for me will naturally not be the same as ordinary people. This point, I have been prepared for a long time, and I am willing to accept it." - Moral kidnapping, for people of different classes, the effect is completely different.Take the filial piety that the ancients valued most, are there any unfilial children and grandchildren among the people?However, it's just that the people don't raise officials and don't investigate.The people are busy making ends meet, who cares if others are filial or not?It can be put on the head of a scholar or an official, which is enough to ruin one's reputation!

Lin Ming'an expressed his thoughts frankly: "Jia Jia's character is such that it is becoming increasingly dilapidated. If I see that I am trusted and reused by the emperor, I am afraid that I will find a way to entangle me. If I can't get the purpose, I have to be on guard against them." In a fit of anger, I use the saying that I don't care about my family and I don't care about my sister who is related by blood to slander!" ——In the last forty chapters of "Dream of Red Mansions", Jia's house collapsed like a building, and the house was ransacked for questioning, which was very miserable; but it is said that the original What is written in the book is even worse!At that time, a life-saving straw must be firmly grasped.Lin Mingan felt that the possibility that they would not try to involve him was zero.Not only the Jia family, but also the four major families, and even the four princes and eight princes!Therefore, he would rather be more cautious and not give them any excuses.

"Although in terms of etiquette, I have a clear conscience. However, in terms of human relations, it is inevitable that I will be discussed by others. In order to avoid this situation, I will help her so that the Jia family will be jealous and dare not treat her badly. .Of course, this is also to help myself, to block the mouths of others, and not to give anyone who wants to attack me a chance! Then you are the best witness evidence!"

Lin Mingan said this so bluntly that Lin Qing was stunned.Lin Baifu's heart ached, but he had something to ask for, so he could only listen to him and continue to say: "Lin Daiyu and I have done five clothes together, and it's inconvenient to have close contacts. In the name of the government, give her something and send someone to greet her. It is also okay to invite her to go to the incense. In this way, it is equivalent to telling the Jia family that Lin Daiyu is not an orphan, but also has the support of the tribe and is willing to support her! If they are smart , it will naturally restrain itself."——If you plan to let me pick her up and raise her, then it's just a dream!In this way, I have done my best!

"But you have to explain one thing to Lin Daiyu. That is, I am of the same family as her, and have nothing to do with the Jia family. If the Jia family wants to use her banner to use my family's brains, That's absolutely impossible! If you ask her to come to support the Jia family, please refuse her request. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"Okay, that's basically it. I've finished my words!" Lin Mingan said calmly, "This is just a transaction. Both of us get what we need, and we get a win-win result. Very good!"

"Steward Lin, you can go back. Don't bother my father anymore, otherwise you won't want the consequences!"

Facing Lin Mingan's indifferent and cold gaze, Lin Baifu felt a chill in his heart.Fortunately, even though Lin Mingan was so indifferent, his goal was partially achieved.Thinking of Lin Mingan's harsh words in front of Lin Ruhai that day, Lin Baifu didn't dare to force anything, thanked him a thousand times, and left anxiously.

"Brother An, I thought I had a grudge against Lin Daiyu and wouldn't accept it?" Lin Qing sighed.

"Father, I have my own considerations." Lin Mingan shook his head and said, "I guess, the Jia family is declining day by day, and it will be a matter of time before they get my ideas. Instead of passively dealing with it, it's better to stop their mouths before the rain comes."

"Isn't it?" Lin Qing was a little disbelieving: "Didn't the eldest lady of the Jia family become a concubine? The emperor treats their family well and is thriving. How could he have your idea?"

Lin Ming'an smiled helplessly, he couldn't tell him that the book "A Dream of Red Mansions" ended like this: "Daddy, be prepared!"

"As for Lin Daiyu, I don't hate or like her. It's delusional for Lin Ruhai to force me to take care of her like a younger sister! But ordinary people are in trouble, and I'm willing to help if I can!" Lin Mingan said slowly Slow down.

The friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, this is his attitude towards Lin Daiyu.

Things got to the point where the butterfly flapped its wings and a lot of things went off track.Then, the plot of the Red Chamber should be different!
