Red Mansions: My Book is Cool

These days, Mrs. Chen has received many posts from officials and eunuchs, inviting the freshly baked Mrs. White and Mrs. Yi'an Township to enjoy the flowers and go to banquets of various names.The Lin family didn't know many people well in the capital, and some were not familiar with them at all. The Chen family politely declined because there were too many family affairs, and Yi An wanted to learn the rules from the maids in the palace, but there were always some people like the old lady. Longevity and the like are unavoidable.

Lin Mingan was also happy to see the success.The White House is a new family of nobles. They cannot stay outside the social circle of the capital and live their own lives behind closed doors. Necessary communication is also necessary.Even if Mrs. Chen doesn't care about it, Yi'an still needs to see more of the world.The current status and background of the Lin family determines her future marriage partner. It is absolutely impossible to be Bai Ding. Either she has a title or fame, and she cannot escape from this range.

I remember that there is a passage in the book "Dream of Red Mansions", in which Jia Taijun complained about the lies of those rich and noble ladies who fancy poor scholars, which explains the truth.Even though he didn't like Jia's family, Lin Ming'an had to admit that Jia Taijun's words were very thorough and understandable. After all, she had been in charge of the Duke's Mansion for decades. Compared with her own children and grandchildren, her foresight and insight were better.

Yi'an is young, will she be confused by feelings and meet others?Lin Mingan took precautions before they happened, and personally explained many practical truths to Yi'an.With the explosion of past life information, what kind of character stories can be hidden from the people who eat melons?Even Lin Mingan's own knowledge is rich enough.The infatuated woman was let down; the phoenix man was once proud, but turned his face and turned ruthless too much!

Wang Baochuan stayed in the cold kiln for 18 years. In ancient times, it was a model of perseverance and virtue, a symbol of female virtue.Lin Ming'an was afraid that the mother-in-law would use these things to brainwash Yi'an and mislead Yi'an.He told Yi'an clearly that women like Wang Baochuan and Cui Yingying are idiots who only know love, don't know the warmth and warmth of the world, and don't understand people's hearts. The queen of heaven died.Cui Yingying was always at the mercy of the matchmaker, and her misfortune in her life has only become a romantic history of scumbags showing off their charm!

Lin Daiyu is very affectionate and sexual, such a woman makes people feel sympathetic and regretful, but Lin Mingan doesn't appreciate it very much.He hoped that Yi'an would be an open-minded, calm and intelligent girl, and that she could even be a little cold-hearted, and love herself a little more than others.In this way, in this era, no, in any era, such a woman will have a better life, peaceful and happy, and will not be enslaved by her heart!

Yi'an is very intelligent, and has not been restrained since she was a child. Under the influence of Lin Mingan, her mind is much more mature than that of a woman in a boudoir.He also witnessed the process of changing his family's status with his own eyes, and he believed in his elder brother far more than he did his parents.I often listen to Lin Ming'an's lectures about the various situations in the world, which makes me more clear and transparent.

Born from the heart, since Yi'an attended some social gatherings in the capital with her mother, she has been praised for her brilliance, intelligence, grace and generosity.Coupled with the fact that her father and brother are upstarts who are gaining power, it is inevitable that some people will have her idea and have other thoughts.

"Aniang, you said that recently many people revealed that they wanted to marry us. Did they like me or Yi'an?" Lin Mingan asked calmly after hearing Chen's words.

"All of them." Chen replied: "Didn't I take Yi'an out and about a few times now, and I was noticed by others. Some said it in a roundabout way, or invited someone to make indirect remarks for my family. , There are also several companies that directly invited the official media to talk about the match. Your father said that he is not as good as you in terms of human experience, especially the situation in the capital, he is not very clear, let me discuss with you. The suitable character is a Pile, people can't make any mistakes."

She sighed: "Brother An, the wind is high and the water is deep in the capital. Your father and I have always lived a comfortable and simple life in Gusu and Shu. I'm afraid it was not thoughtful. Now that you have to be reused by the emperor, how can you help me?" If you get close to Prince Zhongshun, which ones are not the right ones, you naturally have a good idea."

"Since that's the case, Auntie, call Yi'an here!" Lin Ming'an said, "This matter is also related to her, she should also listen to it!"

"This, this, how can a girl listen to such a thing?" Chen felt that Lin Mingan was a bit deviant: "Marriage matters, shouldn't this be decided by father and brother?"

"Aniang," Lin Mingan said softly, "If you want your daughter to live a happy and happy life, you should treat her like a man. If you just put her in a boudoir to embroider and study women, how will she be knowledgeable and understand people in the future? Or, clothes and jewellery, you will let her pick and choose these small things carefully, without any objection. But how can she not even have the right to know about the life-long matter that concerns her fate? Don't worry, I will explain it to her in detail!"

Thinking of Lin Daiyu in the book, Lin Ruhai hired a famous teacher specially for her, read a lot of books, taught her carefully like a man, how could she become such a sad woman with sorrowful eyes

Lin Mingan suddenly became curious, and asked Chen Shi: "Aniang, Lin Daiyu is still keeping her filial piety and don't mention it. You have been socializing and having dinner these days, have you ever seen the ladies and wives of the Jia family?"

"I only met the Jia family's wives twice, one time when two wives came to socialize together, and once only the second wife of Jia came." Chen recalled: "I never saw the girls of the Jia family. The girls in his family don't seem to come out very often."

"The wives of Jia's family seem to want to talk to me, but I think the relationship between our two families is awkward, it's best to respect them from a distance, and it's inconvenient to get close to them, so I nodded and said hello, It’s over. It’s not good for them to be too eager. I can also see that even in the communication in the inner house, there is a clear distinction between civil servants and noble family members. On the contrary, Princess Zhaojing of Zhongshun Prince’s Mansion often takes care of Yi’an. Introduce her to all the nobles."

"People who are raised in deep boudoirs don't know. Girls from Jia's family don't always go out to socialize, no wonder no one comes to propose marriage." Lin Ming'an remembered that Sanchun in the book had difficulties in getting married, and shook his head and sighed.

Mrs. Chen seemed to have thought of something, and snorted displeasedly: "Once I met the two wives of the Baoning Hou Shijia, they were very warm to me and praised you and Yi'an greatly. In the words His son was interspersed in the conversation, and the girls of the Jia family were specifically mentioned, and they were praised for their talents, good manners, and excellent ladies. By the way, they also talked about their niece, the lady of the Shi family. Shi Xiangyun! What do they mean by this, the food is too ugly!"

Lin Ming'an glanced sideways and saw Yi'an who was summoned and was listening intently, and said to her with a smile: "Yi'an, you are now the Lord of the Earl's Mansion, and the relationships between the characters you meet are complicated. The choice between right and wrong, Come, let Aniang and elder brother analyze it for you."

Seeing that her brother valued her, Yi'an was happy, her eyes were excited, and she nodded repeatedly in agreement.

Mrs. Chen sighed helplessly: "Brother An, let me tell you who is interested in you first!"

After receiving the summons, Lin Mingan hurried over and saw Prince Zhongshun who was pacing the room with a happy face.

"Ming An, the Chen mustard stew you mentioned last time, after I reported it to the emperor, I have already brought back part of it from Tianning Temple in Yangzhou. It just so happened that someone was seriously injured. Let me prepare for the funeral. Anyway, the dead horse is used as a living horse medicine, so I tried to give it to him, and it actually saved the life! Seeing the situation, the Tai Hospital hurriedly found another person to try it a few times, and it was confirmed that Chen mustard stew is a life-saving elixir, but the smell is really unpleasant, haha! Brother Huang is now ordering the Tai Hospital to gather famous doctors from all over the world to concentrate on researching this method. Everyone can brainstorm and improve one or two, and make that into a medicine It would be better if the treatment time is shortened by a few years, and the efficacy of the medicine will be improved! At the same time, people will make a lot of it according to this method, and the monks of Tianning Temple dedicated all the prescriptions to the imperial court, hoping to treat more people."

"Brother Huang admired the benevolence and good deeds of these monks, and issued a decree to reward them. The rewards are generous. They are naturally rewarded, but you who first mentioned this good thing, and the king who recommended it, are also credited! Don't worry, Your Majesty Brother, keep it in mind!" Prince Zhongshun said with a smile.

"Ming An dare not take credit for it!" Lin Ming An said modestly, and couldn't help asking: "Your Highness came to me just to talk about this matter?"

"Of course not!" Prince Zhongshun said sternly, "The fine overseas sweet potatoes and potatoes you mentioned, I immediately ordered someone to take the words you wrote and describe them, and go to the coastal ports with the drawings, so that the government can find them." The Western merchants in the trade inquired carefully. Several of them said that they had seen it in their own countries. Because bread is the staple food in Western places, and most of them grow barley and wheat. They don’t like sweet potatoes and potatoes, so they don’t like them. It spread widely, but their imperial court did not allow good seeds to flow out of the country. Under the reward of the king, they promised to sail back immediately and try to smuggle them out. I think it will not take long before sweet potatoes and potatoes will appear in the Daqing Dynasty gone."

"Great!" Even though Lin Mingan was mentally prepared, he couldn't help cheering at this moment.He knows the significance of potatoes and sweet potatoes to ordinary farmers.In normal years, such high-yielding crops will increase the harvest and allow them to eat more.In a year of famine, it is related to whether you can save your life, whether you need to sell your sons and daughters because of the famine, and your flesh and blood are separated!As far as the imperial court is concerned, food is the most important thing for the people. As long as the people are not hungry, the country will not easily be in turmoil.

Yu Gong, benefit for thousands of years!From a selfish point of view, with such merits established, as long as he and Prince Zhongshun do not commit particularly unforgivable crimes, the court and the emperor will fully tolerate them.What they want: the hereditary succession of the prince, the title of marquis, and the rewards of promotion are just around the corner!

No wonder Prince Zhongshun was in such a good mood, even Lin Mingan himself couldn't restrain his excitement.A gentleman loves money, and he gets it in a proper way; his own future should also follow the right path and fight for it calmly.He is not a person who is indifferent to fame and wealth. While benefiting the country and the people, it is an aboveboard act to strive for the rewards he deserves!

"If you get potatoes and sweet potatoes, my lord, please send them to all over the country immediately, plant them in fields with different climates, water and soil, and experiment, and finally collect the results and report them to the imperial court. In this way, this real deal The performance will be stable, and no one can question it!" Lin Mingan reminded: "At that time, I will tell the prince some planting methods and ideas, and the prince might as well try planting on the Huangzhuang near the capital, and wait When harvesting, invite the emperor and the court officials to watch it. The sight they saw with their own eyes will definitely make them unforgettable forever!"

"Okay! Let's do it then!" Prince Zhongshun clapped his hands suddenly, and smiled with great interest: "Ming An, you were a lucky star in your previous life, haha! Or, it should be said that you are the reincarnation of the God of Wealth! Otherwise, how could there be so many people?" Way to make money!"

"Tsk tsk!" He looked Lin Mingan up and down: "No wonder, I heard that many people want to marry your family, that would be a good thing for both fame and fortune!"

Lin Mingan's heart tightened slightly, he was not sure if what Prince Zhongshun said was a warning from Emperor Yongjia to him, he said lightly: "It is true that many people have found my mother, but these are in the eyes of the lower officials. Come on, neither is a good choice!"
