Daiyu of the Red Chamber raised a cat

Just as Zhou Hang and Lin Ruhai were in the air, Daiyu woke up leisurely.

"Daddy?" Naturally, he hugged the orange cat into his arms, opened his eyes and looked at Lin Ruhai half asleep.

Lin Ruhai: "..."

Coming down from the couch, Daiyu was still holding the kitten in her hand, and put on the embroidered shoes, "Daddy is here." She got up and let Lin Ruhai take the main seat, and ordered Huier to serve the best clove tea.

Lin Ruhai frowned.Daiyu asked, "What's the matter?"

Lin Ruhai: "...I don't like the taste of clove tea." He found a random reason.

Daiyu said: "If it's normal, my daughter won't care what kind of tea Daddy eats. Yesterday I heard from the girl serving outside that Daddy didn't sleep well these days and his appetite wasn't great, and he said he couldn't get rid of it when he couldn't take a few bites of each meal. It’s so good. I heard that there is pantothenic acid in the stomach. This clove tea refreshes the mind and rejuvenates the mind. The miraculous doctor took good care of my father, but he left without saying goodbye."

While speaking, Huier had brought tea that was neither hot nor cold, and bowed her knees to offer it to Lin Ruhai.

"Daddy." Lin Daiyu called out.

Lin Ruhai immediately took the tea and drank it slowly, put down the tea bowl, looked at Daiyu gently, and said, "Not bad."

Daiyu looked at Hui'er and said, "Back off, you are not allowed to come in without my order."

When all the servants retreated, Zhou Hang suddenly disappeared from Daiyu's arms, and when he came out again, he had turned into a human body, wearing a robe made of stone and blue silk.Arching his hands, he said softly, "My lord."

Lin Ruhai also bowed his hand in return, and sat down with Zhou Hang as the guest of honor.

Daiyu pursed her lips, did not move her head, but rolled her eyes, looked at Lin Ruhai, then at Zhou Hang, both of them were the people he cared about most, they should be close and easygoing, but as long as these two people Gathering together, the atmosphere is suddenly alienated, as if in a court, with a businesslike posture.Daiyu deliberately eased the atmosphere, smiled and said: "Daddy, you haven't entered the space for a long time, why don't you go and see it now?" After speaking, she looked at Zhou Hang and gave him a wink.

Zhou Hang was very smart, and immediately stepped forward, grabbing Lin Ruhai's arm.Without waiting for his objection, he led Daiyu into the space with the other hand.

Suddenly, Lin Ruhai opened his eyes, "..."

Zhou Hang chuckled, "Don't blame me, my lord."

"..." Lin Ruhai straightened his clothes, raised his chin slightly, "No problem."

A big dog, a tiger, and a few horses galloped over. Daiyu held the tiger's head in one hand, and the dog's head in the other. She smiled, looked at Lin Ruhai and said, "Daddy, look, the tiger and Sa Zi both want to I'm so happy, they like to lean on people when they're happy."

Then he patted the tiger: "Don't lick my face."

With a smile on Lin Ruhai's face, he walked over and touched the tiger's head.

Zhou Hang set up felt mats, kang tables, stoves, tea sets, etc. on the grass, and the three of them sat and made tea and chatted.After the wedding date was set, Zhou Hang knew that Lin Ruhai was reluctant to part with his daughter, and was grieving in his heart, so he didn't dare to mention how to prepare for the marriage, and only talked about a few recent news in Beijing.

One is that the imperial decree has been issued, and Enke was opened to celebrate the prince's wedding. Many literati came to Beijing one after another, and they were full of poetry and wine every day, which was very lively; The concubine Tanchun lost her life to Qi Guogong at the birthday banquet of Qi Guogong and his wife; and the most talked about is that there is a Qingtian in Beijing who is keen on judging the case in a clear way - the new Dali Temple Minister Zhao Ruli, I heard that he has been in office for less than one year. Within months, hundreds of cases accumulated over the years were dealt with. After the verdict, everyone was convinced, and there was not a single unjust, false or wrongly decided case.

Daiyu didn't hear about Tanchun, she asked: "When did Tanchun happen, why don't I know anything about it?"

Zhou Hang curled his lips slightly, looked at Daiyu and said, "As for what happened at noon yesterday, Jia Tanchun followed Jia Wang's family to a banquet. Who knew that Jia Tanchun went to a small building in the inner house. Mrs. Qi Guogong Bringing more than a dozen maids and servants to the study to deliver tea to the Duke of Qi, when he went outside the door and heard something wrong inside, he opened the door and went in, and Tan Chun was—”

Just now, Lin Ruhai coughed a few times and interrupted Zhou Hang.

Zhou Hang swallowed back the words that "Tan Chunzheng is out with the 60-year-old Qi Guogong" in his stomach.

Daiyu's mind is clear, so she naturally understands that the following words are not appropriate to say, so she doesn't ask, and just sighs in a low voice: "It's so confusing!"

Zhou Hang said: "She is not confused at all!"

Daiyu: "How do you say that?"

Zhou Hang: "She bribed the servants, knowing that Baoxia is the place where the third son and the third son from the next generation usually study and rest. Who knows that the third son was not there yesterday, but the Duke of Qi was drunk and slumped on the kang. Want to be a country Grandma who is the head of the Duke's mansion? Now she is stealing chickens and losing money, and her reputation is ruined. Face, Qi Guogong has a solid reputation of being unfilial, and his future is ruined. At this moment, Mrs. Qi Guogong and Mrs. Tai probably hate Jia Tanchun to the bone, and even if they enter the mansion, they may not end well."

Daiyu sighed again, feeling that there was no need to go any further, so she changed the subject, "Enke is open in June, and now the capital is bustling again, so I don't know how many good poems and wonderful articles I have to add."

Zhou Hangdao: "It's just started now, and in a month or two there will be more celebrities and scholars gathering. All the inns in central Beijing are sweeping up to welcome candidates who are going to take the exam. The battle of literature and poetry is very lively. At that time, I will ask my father for leave. Take a few days to accompany you around."

Daiyu blinked, looking at Zhou Hang expectantly and excitedly, "Really?"

Zhou Hang patted his chest: "When did I ever lie to you?"

Daiyu nodded with a smile.

Lin Ruhai coughed again to remind the two of her own existence, Daiyu suppressed her smile, pursed her lips, stared at her black and clear eyes, and looked at Lin Ruhai somewhat flatteringly and expectantly.

Lin Ruhai: "...Forget it, go if you want."

"Thank you, dad, for caring about my daughter." Daiyu held tea for Lin Ruhai with her smiling hands, and looked at Zhou Hang, her smile became brighter and brighter like a blooming flower, "I also want to see how the new Dali Temple Minister solves the case with fascination."

Zhou Hang: "Okay."

"..." Lin Ruhai glanced at Zhou Hang, you are too pushy, aren't you? ! ! !

On the second day of their conversation, Tanchun was carried into the Duke of Qi's mansion in a small sedan chair.

It was a dark and windy night in the middle of the month, and I couldn't see my fingers.After the third watch drum was knocked, the side door of Jia's mansion opened a crack first, and only after making sure that there was no one outside, opened the door.Two porters carried a small soap-colored sedan chair, followed by a girl in half-worn clothes carrying a tattered bundle.Very low-key and shabby.However, there are still many people who know about it, many people watching, and many people pointing fingers.

The faint sound of weeping came from the sedan chair, which added to the interest of the spectators.

"See, the one in the sedan chair is that corrupt girl from Jia's mansion!"

"I heard that she was crawling on an old man's bed, or at his old lady's birthday banquet, really..." Without saying anything later, she inhaled, with a very contemptuous expression on her face.

"Shameless!" Another person added, gnashing her teeth as if she herself had been stolen.

"If you don't want to be a good young lady, you must become a prostitute. You've been deceived by lard!" Someone in the crowd said that.

Someone answered: "I still have the face to cry, I am so tired that the family is ashamed, if I want to give birth to such an indiscriminate thing, I will be beaten to death early!"

"Hey, you can't say that." A woman who looked like 50 or [-] years old with her forehead wiped showed an expression that you know what, and you need me to spread the inside story, "This is the second master of Jia's mansion, it was their master. The son whom the wife relied heavily on actually went over the grand lord who attacked the lord. That kind of arrogance is naturally too high. Since he was dismissed from office, how many eyes have he received in the past few years! How can he stand it? He still doesn't want to try his best to seek reinstatement? You guys? Thinking, is Jia's mansion still the same as it was back then, not to mention that he didn't take over the title, and now that he has lost his official position, who would care about him? Although this girl is now a concubine, at least she has something to do with the Duke of Qi's mansion , would he let it go?"

One of them sneered: "It's just a concubine, can Duke Qi really treat him like his father-in-law?"

"Based on that girl's means, it's not necessarily true, and it's not uncommon to spoil concubines and destroy wives."

"That's true. Does a son-in-law who is older than him have no shame?"

The gossip, which has not dissipated after a month, everyone scoffed at the mention of the second bedroom of Jia's mansion, which was worse than mentioning the maggots in the latrine.

Another month, Dali Temple opened the trial and allowed the common people to watch. Daiyu and Zhou Hang squeezed in the crowd, and while they were waiting for their promotion, they listened to people talking about Jia Tanchun's degrading women's morality.

Daiyu frowned tightly, her eyes were as deep as an abyss.

It's all for these people to talk about Tanchun, so why are they even getting involved with her?

Zhou Hang noticed Daiyu's displeasure at the first time, and said via voice transmission: "Don't be as knowledgeable as these ignorant people, I will teach them a lesson for you!"

Daiyu glanced at Zhou Hang and saw that he was angry.He did this, naturally for his own sake, and once his heart softened, others didn't care.She sent a voice transmission: "Forget it, I didn't say anything unpleasant, but it's just the fact that I have a relationship with the Jia family."

Zhou Hang: "There are always a group of idlers who gossip for fun, but they don't know that they are the poor people. Just don't worry about it."

Daiyu pursed her lips: "I don't have that skill."

When Zhou Hang wanted to say something, Daiyu pointed to the front, implying that it was time for promotion.

The author has something to say:

I’ve been so unlucky recently, first I burned my fingers and couldn’t type (the index finger, middle finger and thumb of my left hand were blistered), and then I had a series of troubles…
