Lin Daiyu narrowly covered her veil.

"Third sister has taken a fancy to him?"

"In any case, he is also my distant cousin, so maybe I can't be more intimate."

The atmosphere froze, and Tan Chun blushed with shame.

"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll twist your mouth!"

Lin Daiyu hid around the table, not forgiving.

"Cousin is working with my father now, maybe he will have an official job in the future, and he is young, why not?"

"Usually you always tease me, now it's my turn to take revenge."

Yingchun Xichun laughed heartily, and Tanchun blushed even more.

"Bah! We haven't even looked at our faces, so you dare to make fun of it. It's a pity that no one else heard it."

"It's better to marry you off early, because you're still poor-tongued!"

Lin Daiyu was accidentally caught by her and begged for mercy.

"Oh, I was wrong, don't dare to talk nonsense again."

"I don't know who I will marry in the future. You are so powerful, but I want to find you someone even more powerful, ouch."

There was a lot of noise, Qingmei came over.

"Second Miss, Uncle Cheng is going back, and Eldest Miss asks you to go and see him off so that he can report his safety."

Lin Daiyu hurriedly took the opportunity to escape.

"Come on, I'm going to see off the guests."

After tidying up her hair and clothes, she walked down the steps and turned around suddenly.

"Third sister, why don't you go with me, just to show you the face?"

After finishing speaking, he trotted away.

Annoyed, Tanchun chased him out.

"Don't come back, I can't spare you!"

In the main compartment, Cheng Jie was still talking.

"My cousin doesn't seem to like Tong Xuan very much, and even told me to kick him out, but I also praised him for doing a good job."

"It's better for you to settle down early, so as to save the mess of Jia's mansion."

He was kind, but Lin Yun shook his head.

"Don't say that he won't propose marriage at this time, even if he did, his father would not agree to it. Officialdom is more concerned about being well-matched than Jianghu."

Cheng Jie suddenly realized.

"No wonder he worked so hard in Fujian. He wanted to match you."

"But my uncle's attitude seems a little cold, probably more reluctant to marry you than I am."

The life of parents is absolutely crucial in this era.

Lin Yun said with a sassy smile.

"Do you think I seem so obedient?"

"Cao Tongxuan wants to go to Fujian for me, so I can't fight for him? There is always a way to convince my father."

Seeing her confident smile, Cheng Jie felt uncomfortable.

"Daddy specifically asked me to tell you not to be too naughty. No one will care if you roast Daddy's pigeons at home, but you can't do it outside."

"Cough cough."

Suddenly mentioning the old things, Lin Yun covered his face.

"At that time I was young and ignorant, and I didn't know it was Daddy's carrier pigeon."

"Didn't you never catch pigeons again? At most, you and your second brother's homework will be changed, and you will be scolded together."

Lin Daiyu heard this sentence as soon as she approached, and almost tripped over the threshold.

Pian Lin Yun is upright and confident.

"Who told him not to take me to ride a horse, coaxing me that children will die if they ride a horse."

"Second brother went too far. Taking advantage of being two or three years older than me, he picked me up with a wooden spear, but he couldn't hold it steady, and the two of them fell on the martial arts training platform together."

So this is the childhood life with brothers?

Lin Daiyu suddenly realized that she didn't seem so envious anymore.

"cousin."

"cousin."

The two greeted each other and asked about their physical condition, Cheng Jie said goodbye and left.

As soon as he left, Lin Daiyu took Lin Yun to the East Chamber.

"Who said that my cousin is Mr. Jun just now? Someone who knows the inside story is here, ask quickly."

"The sisters are growing up day by day, and they really can't stop their hearts!"

Several people laughed together.

Lin Yun only knew what they said after asking.

"It's a pity that my elder brother is five or six years older than me, so he is not suitable for his age. Besides, he has a sister-in-law who was a childhood sweetheart. The two got engaged last year."

"Just speaking of it, the temperament of the third younger sister is more suitable for my second brother. Let him come in and meet you next time."

Lin Daiyu applauded.

"The two brothers must be about the same. If the eldest cousin is not successful, the second cousin is also fine. They are all more intimate."

It is said that Tanchun wants to beat people.

"Bah, neither of the sisters is a good person!"

"If you don't learn well at a young age, you will not be able to get married if you are careful!"

After arguing for a while, I went to pick chrysanthemums, fold flowers, recite poems and paint.

Two days later, Lin Yun and Lin Daiyu were learning embroidery from Nanny Wang, and Yuanyang came in after Ziling.

"My dear girl, put down what you're doing, Mr. Lin has been promoted."

"The imperial decree came down this morning. We didn't receive the news until noon. The old lady told you to go over."

The two hurriedly stood up.

"Let's change clothes and come."

He casually rewarded Yuanyang with a handful of money, and the two of them went back to freshen up and rushed to Rongqing Hall.

Everyone has already gathered, and Jia's mother is the happiest.

"Hahaha, you are here, and you will be the daughters of the fourth-rank family members in the future."

"Your father has just been promoted to the censor of Zuoqian capital. I'm afraid he is too busy to see you. I asked your second elder brother Lian to take Baoyu to meet you and give you news when he comes back."

"As long as your two uncles can have half the success of your father, I will feel at ease."

The only real position that the Jia family could hold was Jia Zheng's fifth-rank servant, and compared carefully, he was indeed inferior to Lin Ruhai.

Everyone congratulated again and again, and Wang Xifeng picked up the excitement first.

"Usually you always say to be humble and don't want to give anything, but now you are the daughter of a serious official in the capital, you must hold up your identity and not be underestimated."

Mrs. Wang taught with a smile.

"The girl's family is naturally humble. They are good. A woman's lack of talent is virtue. In the future, she must be more careful and behave. If she makes a mistake, it will hurt the dignity of the family."

The corner of Madam Xing's lips twitched, and she turned the other way.

"Anyway, there are no outsiders at home, so it's okay to be more comfortable. It's not bad to follow the old lady."

Lin Yun and Lin Daiyu looked at each other and thanked politely.

People congratulated Jia Mu again.

Aunt Xue smiled.

"From now on, Uncle Lin will stay in the capital, and the old lady has too much personal filial piety. The two girls are sensible, and I don't know who will get it."

Mother Jia quickly waved her hands.

"Although half of the son-in-law is, after all, I didn't raise him. Besides, this Zuoqian capital censor is in charge of supervising the court, but it's a position that offends people, and it's far less good than outsiders think."

"The two girls are my favorite, and they must be more careful in the future, so they can't be abducted by others."

Talking and laughing twice, asked Lin Yun and Lin Daiyu to sit down on the left and right respectively.

"Your father has been promoted, so your treatment will also go up. If an official wife comes to see you, don't be ashamed. I will pay you five taels a month. If you need anything, just find Feng girl."

"Don't be embarrassed, this is not for yourselves, but for the face of your father and the family."

On the day of great joy, everyone has other plans hidden inside and outside the words, and they have different thoughts, talking and laughing on their faces, so that it is very lively.

Lin Yun's left ear went in and out of his right ear, and there was a gap to drag the girls to the corner to talk, so as not to listen to their games.

In the evening Jia Lian and Jia Baoyu came back.

"There are a lot of people coming and going in the Lin residence, Uncle Lin has no time to spare, so he specially asked us to see each other at night when there are fewer people, and come back to greet the old lady when we have time."

"The two younger sisters are living in the mansion. Don't go out for the time being to save trouble. After Uncle Lin's matter is clear, I will choose a day to pick up the two younger sisters to stay for a few days."

"As for the appointment, you can discuss with the second master. If the director can't come in the first few months, I will accuse the old lady."

Jia Lian stood at the bottom of the head and reported one by one. Jia's mother nodded when she listened.

"Exactly, being an official is the most troublesome thing. Your second master was promoted the first year, and he couldn't be free for three or five days. Tell him not to worry. It's best if your sister is by my side anyway."

"By the way, go back and discuss with your wife about expanding the Jiangyun Pavilion. They are sisters with different identities, and they need to be surrounded by more people. The backyard will be encircled halfway for them and changed to a second entrance."

Lin Yun quickly got up.

"Thank you for your love, grandma. We'll just live here now, without any trouble."

"What's more, I'm busy visiting relatives, and I dare not share the excitement of the empress. If word spreads, it will inevitably be discussed."

Jia Mu was stunned, suddenly realizing.

"Look at my memory, I almost forgot about my mother's important affairs, but girl Yun is sensible, not that frivolous."

"If that's the case, let it go first, I will take care of everything."

After talking about the serious business, Jia Baoyu stepped forward.

"Old Ancestor, since the Jiangyun Pavilion is going to be built, will Sister Lin and Sister Lin not go back?"

"I see that the Lin family is very busy. I'm afraid they can't take care of them well. We still have our ancestors to take care of them. Nothing goes wrong."

When these words came to Jiamu's heart, the grandparents and grandchildren hugged and laughed.

Jia Lian pouted quietly, bowed and stepped back to find Wang Xifeng.

"The old lady said that she wanted to repair the yard for the two younger sisters, but was stopped by sister Lin, otherwise she would have to spend several thousand taels."

"You said last time that there is no money in the account, is it true?"

Wang Xifeng packed Jia Lian's clothes and turned to stare at him.

"What did I lie to you for? You were there when I checked the accounts last time, and you saw them all. Next month, the cranes, rabbits and other things will be delivered in the relatives' garden. I don't know where to get the money."

"Now that Uncle Lin is promoted, it is another expense for the old lady to promote her two younger sisters. Last month, the elder sister fell ill. If it weren't for Sister Lin's doctor who came to see her, she would have almost pawned the gold collar."

"In the past, I wanted to be strong and refused to complain to you. It's still Ping'er's reasoning. I will let you know sooner or later. Why bother to hide the rift? You should be troubled with me. You are the man in charge!"

Jia Lian hurriedly got up and bowed.

"I know grandma is working hard. This big family is supported by grandma."

"Just for my sake, I've worked so hard, and I'll reward grandma in the evening."

Wang Xifeng spat at him.

"Irregular!"

"Hurry up and think of a way. I can't really ask me to finish the dowry, and then I won't be able to keep much of my daughter."

The husband and wife seemed to be the housekeepers of the Rongguo Mansion, but they didn't actually get much benefit, so they let them share all the troubles.

After a moment of contemplation, Jia Lian rolled his eyes.

"I told you to tell Yuanyang, can you tell me?"

"The old lady thinks so much about herself, one box can be exchanged for [-] taels, and just taking out a few pieces can solve the urgent need."

Wang Xifeng was also sitting on the couch.

"I can't say such shameless words, you go by yourself."

"Who doesn't know that Yuanyang is the most proud person around the old lady. I can't do such things as stealing from my own house."

The atmosphere immediately cooled down, and Jia Lian got up and snorted.

"Grandma, you are the most decent person, I am shameless, I will go."

"Take the money back and come out, don't beg me."

He flicked his clothes and went out.

Wang Xifeng pounded her fist on the table.

"Bah, good man, it's shabby to do such a stealthy thing!"

Scolding is scolding, life is still going on.

I don't know what method Jia Lian used to find the mandarin ducks. Sure enough, he pawned things from Jiamu's private treasury. Hundreds of taels and hundreds of taels were enough to keep the building from falling.

Without the worry of money, Jia Lian reverted to his old ways, and together with a few men from Ningguo Mansion, drank and played all day long, enjoying themselves. ?
