[Red Mansion] Today is also not a person in Jia's house

The carriage was driving on the street, Lin Daiyu lifted the curtain, although the corners of her eyes were still reddish, she couldn't hold back the smile on her lips.

"The flowers in our garden are all blooming, right? It's a pity that I will move to a new home after living in the old house for a few days. I want to plant flowers in the new home. It's best to have crabapple, and then plant a few plum trees, and wait for the winter to come. When it’s snowing, you practice your sword under the tree, and I’ll play the piano.”

"Add a few more cooks to the kitchen. The doctor said that I can't eat this or that. If I add a few more people to do tricks, there will always be something I can eat."

Halfway through the rambling, Lin Yun's ears felt callused.

"When I was at Jia's house, why didn't I see you making so many requests? I don't care if you talk so much before you get home. You can order someone to get what you want. I just take care of my own yard."

After speaking, he shrank back to the side of the carriage, expressing his determination not to intervene.

Lin Daiyu was in a happy mood and didn't care about her.

"Although the Jia family is good, it is a relative's house after all. It is not easy for us to live in the Jiangyun Pavilion. How can we cause trouble everywhere? It is better to go home."

When people are happy, they look at the different scenery, look around, and see Cheng Qian and Jia Lian riding horses in front of them, talking happily.

"Sister, have you met Brother Cheng and Brother Lian before?"

Lin Yun took a look, and immediately retracted.

"Probably not. The second elder brother came to the capital for the affairs of Feiyun Villa a few times ago. This year, he followed his father as a small official in the Inspectorate. He should have no chance to meet. But it is normal. He has always been able to say that he used to be in Feiyun Shanzhuang, whenever there is any dispute at home, he is called to go."

Lin Daiyu nodded half understanding.

"His character is better than mine. If I meet someone for the first time, I won't dare to speak."

Looking at him enviously, he was attracted by something else after a while.

The last time I went home was in the middle of the night, and I didn't see what my house looked like, so I finally had the chance to take a closer look this time.

The wooden door is obviously old. It has been refreshed many times and the material can no longer be seen. It can only be judged from the scale that it was a wealthy family.The threshold is not too high, and there are no stone lions outside the door, and there are two stone blocks sitting upside down.

The carriage stopped at the front door, and the sedan chair was waiting inside. Nanny Li came up with two other moms.

"Girl, the master hasn't come back yet, let's go in first."

After Lin Yun responded, the two nuns came forward and helped the two sisters into sedan chairs to go to the inner courtyard.

Lin An saluted Cheng Qian and Jia Lian.

"Second Brother Cheng, Second Master Lian, go in and drink tea and rest for a while. The two girls go back and change their clothes, and we will receive you later."

Cheng Qian came more often and raised his hand directly.

"Second brother Lian, please, the emperor gave my cousin good tea a few days ago, let's go in and have a cup."

Within half an hour of acquaintance, the second brother has already been called.

Jia Lian didn't feel offended, so he readily agreed.

"Uncle Lin's things are naturally good. Let's go in and wait when the sun rises, and greet Uncle Lin when he comes back."

When the two sisters came out after changing their clothes, they were chatting happily as brothers.

Lin Yun quietly reached out to touch Lin Daiyu.

"Whatever I say, there is nothing he can't talk about."

Lin Daiyu smiled lightly, and went in to greet the two of them.

"Second Brother Lian, Second Brother Cheng, the journey was hard, thank you for the escort."

Neither of them got up, and sat down to receive the gift.

"What's this worth? If you want to see your niece in the future, just ask me to pick you up, even if I'm not free, it's the same if you send someone."

Jia Lian has a crush on the two Lin sisters, but Cheng Qian is more casual.

"Have you packed your things? I'm not busy today, my cousin will be back soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, a servant reported outside that Lin Ruhai had returned.

Cheng Qian and Jia Lian hurriedly got up to greet him, and Lin Yun and Lin Daiyu were also waiting at the door.The old Lin family house, which was usually deserted, suddenly had many more people.

The moment Lin Ruhai entered the door, he suspected that he had made a mistake.

"Come back so early, are you exhausted? Go in and sit down. You come too."

Greeting everyone to enter the room and take a seat, Lin Ruhai stroked his beard and looked at the two slim daughters, feeling very relieved.

"Don't open the things that you don't need on weekdays for the time being, and wait until you move to the new mansion to organize them. Keep your two brothers for dinner today, you can make arrangements."

"Yes."

The two sisters came out, leaving three men in the house.Lin Daiyu stepped on her feet and took a look.

"Is father teaching them a lesson? This look is even scarier than when Second Uncle taught Baoyu a lesson."

Lin Yun also leaned over to have a look.

"It's possible that the second elder brother is now working with his father, and the second elder brother Lian is a donating official. Isn't this like training a son?"

"laugh."

Lin Daiyu couldn't hold back her laughter, for fear of being heard running away.

Lunch is in a hurry, so I need some snacks.Lin Ruhai arranged tasks for Cheng Qian, and sent him away after dinner, but left Jia Lian for dinner and took him to the study.

No one knew exactly what he said, but Jia Lian's face was not good-looking.

At night, when the lamps are lit, the three fathers and daughters can speak.

"It's good to come back. If there is no major event in the future, then don't go to Jia's mansion."

Lin Yun thought so, but Lin Daiyu was puzzled.

"Why? I just made an agreement with my grandmother before I came here, and I'm going to pay her birthday wishes."

"Hahaha, of course you can pay birthday wishes, not only to pay birthday wishes, but also to give congratulatory gifts. I'm talking about other times."

Lin Ruhai smiled twice to comfort Lin Daiyu, but couldn't laugh behind her.

"Do you know that Jia Yucun shielded Xue Pan? The person who ordered Jia Yucun to bend the law for personal gain was Jia Zheng."

The only person in Rongguo Mansion who could barely be considered decent was Jia Zheng.Lin Daiyu didn't believe it, but listened to Lin Ruhai continue.

"If it's just like this, that's all. At most, I will be dismissed from the official position, but there are many things you don't know, let alone Jia Amnesty. I am in charge of the Inspectorate now. The more I investigate, the more frightened I am. The noble family in the capital is in chaos. It has reached such a point. It is still investigating, and there is no guarantee that it will be liquidated one day, and the Jia family will never be spared. The old lady has devoted herself to you, so I will naturally do my best to guarantee it, but even so, I am afraid it will be difficult to recover."

For him to speak so seriously, it can be seen that the situation is serious.

Lin Daiyu stood up in shock, covering her mouth tightly with a handkerchief.

"Really, irreparable?"

Lin Ruhai sighed and shook his head.

"I told Jia Lian today that he didn't know much about the family affairs. If he hadn't done it, he wouldn't be involved. I'm afraid there are some things he can't get rid of."

Wang Xifeng gave loan sharks, and Jia She murdered for money. Although these things had nothing to do with Jia Lian, if they were to be investigated, he would not be able to avoid any of them.Lin Yun knew it well but couldn't say it, so she only comforted Lin Daiyu.

"Your Majesty, if Lian's second brother hadn't done it, he would not be implicated. There are also a few younger brothers. Besides, my father is still here, so I will intercede for them."

On the first day home, I should have been the happiest, but the atmosphere was tense.

Lin Ruhai got up.

"I know these words make you sad, but if you keep it from you, you will find out. If you have the opportunity in the future, you will try to persuade you, at least you will do your best."

After speaking, he sighed, shook his head and went out.

Lin Daiyu was really sad, she couldn't stop her tears, and fell on Lin Yun.

"I know they are bastards, but at my grandmother's age, what should she do if something happened to the Rongguo Mansion? None of them are useful. If it wasn't for my grandmother's support, the signboard of Ningrong Mansion would have been taken off. I knew it would be like this I shouldn't have gone, I'm so sad."

Crying hard for a while, I don't care when I get angry.

"If there is a day, I don't care if they are good or not, I will only bring my grandmother into the family, and there is no reason why my granddaughter is not allowed to be filial to my grandmother!"

Lin Yun was helpless because of his petty temper, which made him look more unruly than anyone else.

"That's what you said, but it didn't reach that point. It's true that Baoyu is a bastard, and it's true that he is innocent. There are Brother Huan, Brother Cong, and Lan'er at worst. Why is it your turn? The Jia family has not died yet." Woolen cloth."

Lin Daiyu suddenly stopped crying.

She only thought that Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng couldn't escape, and Jia Lian was also in danger, but she forgot about the others.I was wrong for a while and refused to admit it, so I started to quibble.

"What's the use of being a human being? With the rank and title gone, who among them can be in charge of the family? It's not as majestic as Lian's second sister-in-law. Let me make it clear that one day, I will support my grandmother."

Seeing that her tears were still dry, Lin Yun couldn't argue with her, so he nodded perfunctorily.

"Listen to you, there are only three decent masters in our family, why is it so difficult to leave a yard for grandma?"

Lin Daiyu was happy now, and went back to her yard to clean up and rest.

When I woke up the next day, I really started to be the head aunt.

At the beginning, I didn't know that I was going to move to a new mansion, and the old mansion was tidied up.Now it is necessary to move back the moved out decoration facilities, or move to a new mansion.Fortunately, I just took stock of it not long ago, and it was relatively easy.

The girls and servants are all arranged according to the old house, and now they have to be reassigned.Entering the courtyard seven times, arranging manpower is more than twice as complicated, and Lin Yun doesn't like to arrange new and distant servants like Jia's mansion, so it is even more troublesome.

The two aunts living quietly in the courtyard did not cause any trouble, but Lin Ruhai's promotion, the monthly share of the whole house will increase, and they are included, which is another difficult task.

There were ten or eight things piled up in front of Lin Yun in one morning, and it would take about two hours for Wang Xifeng to sort them out, but she was inexperienced, so she could only toss about slowly.

Lin Daiyu was not much better either.She likes to grow flowers and read books, and she manages the garden and study of the new mansion.

It’s not just a matter of simply sending one person, the garden in the front yard to entertain guests, the flower hall in the backyard where girls play, flower beds in various yards, bonsai in the study room, custom-made placement of bookshelves, drying and preservation of books...

Although they are all trivial matters, dozens of them can be piled up, not to mention running around and wasting time.

Originally, I thought that I would spend a few days on it after returning home, but I didn't expect that the life of my aunt was so unsatisfying.From April [-]th to April [-]th, the two of them seemed to be driven by ghosts without stopping.

At this time, Jia's mansion was similar.

Jia Baoyu was moved to Mrs. Wang's room again, and woke up on April 33th, facing the [-]-day statement.

Mrs. Wang recited Buddha's name with joy, and she was even more convinced that the Lin sisters were unknown.

"How do you feel today? I heard Xiren say that you don't want to eat in the morning, but it doesn't suit your appetite? I asked them to stew bird's nest. You should eat a few bites anyway."

Jia Baoyu sat on the bed, angry and refused to eat.

"Madam, I want to go back to Yihong Courtyard."

Mrs. Wang's smile remained unchanged, and she gently wiped the corners of his mouth.

"I know you want to go back, but I just want you to stay with me for a while, and I'll let you go back in a few days. What's the rush? If you don't want to eat well, I won't worry about letting you go back."

"Really?"

Jia Baoyu was skeptical, but when he saw Mrs. Wang smiling kindly, he was immediately happy.

"I know my wife loves me the most, so I'll eat right away."

Jumping off the bed, he didn't care about putting on his shoes, and drank with a bowl in his hand.He regretted not eating in a bad mood in the morning.

"Slow down, my son, I will go to the old lady's place to say hello later, and I will let you go back in two days."

Mrs. Wang carefully patted him on the back, showing a loving mother's heart.As soon as Jia Baoyu left, his face turned cold as if he had changed.

"Where are Mama Li and Mama Zhao?"

Yu Chuan'er came in from the door.

"They came here in the morning, and when they saw that their wives were busy, they said they should go to Yihong Courtyard first."

Mrs. Wang ordered someone to put away the empty bowl, and tidied the tassels on her head with a handkerchief, her eyes were cold and sharp.

"Let's go too, these little goblins, we must clean them up today!"

The girls did not dare to speak, but followed quietly behind.

There has been no master in Yihong Courtyard for several days, and Xiren is not here, six or seven big girls are playing around, as comfortable as girls.The two second-class maids at the door were still gambling, and their faces were red for a few copper coins.

"Just now it was five copper coins, but how did it become three? It's clear that you stole two back!"

"I didn't, it's because you read it wrong, I won't play with you!"

"I want to leave if I'm cheating, bring me the money!"

"I won't give it. Baoyu gave me all the money when he won last time. If you have the ability, you can win him."

The two chased and ran to the gate of the courtyard, bumped into the person without defense, and before they looked up to see clearly, they were slapped across the face.

"You despicable hoof, you don't even look at the door when the master isn't here, and you're here to gamble money all day long, are you crazy?"

Mama Li has always been powerful, but this time she took advantage of it again, scolding people with raised eyebrows and raised eyebrows.Seeing the beaten little girl crying with her handkerchief in her hand, she spat on her face.

"Relying on Baoyu's usual doting on you, the lowly bastards regard themselves as masters and misses, and today I will let you know how powerful I am!"

The author says:

Ten thousand changes this week, complete...

It’s like this, I was originally slow and felt a little hollowed out, so I couldn’t write, and then it was past eight o’clock. First of all, I would like to apologize to everyone for not being punctual.
