A Concubine of Salted Fish in Qing Dynasty [Red House]

Chapter 39 Survival of the fittest They are very close, but also very far

After Jia Zhu and Jia Lian got the letter, they set off for Beijing.

The Lin family went to Zhuangzi in the countryside and planned to stay for a while, so Lin Ruhai had to travel a lot.

The things in the country are not as exquisite as those in Linfu, but they have a natural beauty.

The sky is also wider here.

When I came here, looking at the vast fields and forests, my mood became more open without knowing it.

Although the younger generation needs to observe filial piety and cannot eat meat, there are fresh winter bamboo shoots and other fresh vegetables here.

And dairy products are not considered meaty. There are cows and goats here, and flowers can be made from cow's and goat's milk.

As soon as Yun Shuyao came here, she often stayed in the kitchen, tossing delicious food for Luo Yu, and also gave some to others.

If you perform well, there will be bonuses and increased impression points.

She did everything, but she wasn't the one who did it, she just talked about it, why didn't she do such a good thing?

Luo Yu lost several kilograms this time, and she was not a plump person in the first place.

Daiyu looks more likely to make people feel distressed, she is too young, because she is still young, according to Daiyu's taste, Yun Shuyao specially improved some of her favorite desserts for her.

Then let people make beautiful models of animals and petals, which are very attractive to Daiyu and can make her eat more.

Yun Shuyao was paying back Jia Min's affection.

On his deathbed, Jia Min sent a lot of things abroad.

Yun Shuyao and Aunt Mei each have a set of jewelry.

Several children and girls each received two sets of jewelry, two pairs of jade pendants, and 2000 taels of silver.

On Chenyu's side, the jewelry was replaced by pens, inks, papers and inkstones, ancient books and paintings, which were of equal value.

This can be regarded as the thought left by her as a aunt for several children, and it is also a box of silver, which is kept as a dowry for girls and dowry for boys.

Yun Shuyao accepted Jia Min's affection.

It's not that she doesn't care if she has money and doesn't lack these things. What she gives is a kindness and kindness.

Seeing Daiyu's dazed look now, Yun Shuyao gave something back.

Daiyu was born weak, just like Yingyu was when she was a child.

But now Yingyu is almost like an ordinary person, and Daiyu can raise her well with careful care.

Now during the filial piety period, you can't eat meat, but you can't treat your body badly.

If Jia Min knew that Daiyu was not in good health because of her funeral, she would probably be overwhelmed.

With cow's milk and goat's milk, there are so many things that can be made.

In addition, there is nothing to do now, so Yun Shuyao simply took the three girls into the kitchen and started the cooking class.

Double-skin milk, cheese, soufflé, toffee, baked milk, panna cotta... Her tossing and eating skills have been collectively certified by the Lin family.

Cui Shan, who served her back then, was married a long time ago, and now she has become an expert in the kitchen, especially good at these novelty snacks that Yun Shuyao came up with.

The group of them was in the kitchen, basically commanding from the sidelines, and Cui Fan carried it out.

As long as the ladies don't use knives or fire, no one will stop them.

My daughter's family also wants to learn how to cook, so she doesn't need to be very good at it, and she doesn't need to cook by herself. It's just that sometimes she cooks it by herself, which is more expressive.

The kitchen is an easy place to feel fulfilled.

Looking at ordinary materials, after some operations, turning them into beautiful and delicious snacks, especially when you are involved in it, the sense of satisfaction is very easy to fascinate.

In order to make them feel more involved, Yun Shuyao asked Cui Shan to take out the flour.

With flour, you can make dumplings, buns, and pancakes with various vegetarian fillings.

There is also free play, use the flour as plasticine to use your imagination, and make all kinds of cute rabbits, monkeys, puppies, kittens, and birds.

The three sisters started together.

Daiyu couldn't let go at first, but she soon relaxed after being led by her two older sisters.

Children, who doesn't like to play?She quickly squeezed out a strange-looking panda.

Looking at the final product, a pair of eyebrows frowned.

Pandas don't look like this.

Much better looking than this.

She tilted her head, and saw the little white rabbit in the elder sister's hand. She was pinching two ears for the little rabbit. They were long and pointed, with a bunch of bulges around the neck. That was...a necklace?

Her head was tilted to the other side again, and what the second sister was holding was a tiger, a naive tiger whose stomach was full of fillings.

The face was surprisingly big, if it wasn't for the king character on the forehead, she still wouldn't be able to guess what it was.

Daiyu was lost in thought, as if...the panda she pinched wasn't so ugly.

It didn't take long for these imaginative finished steamed buns to be delivered to the dining table of the old lady and Lin Ruhai.

Looking at this plate of strange gnocchi, the old lady said, "..."

Lin Ruhai: "..."

Some are speechless.

This technique still needs to be improved.

That being said, the three sisters made it with their own hands. In the end, the two of them ate it up. If they couldn't eat it, they let it go, and then continued to eat.

Yingyu and Luoyu coaxed Daiyu, saying that grandmother and father liked it very much, and they had to continue tomorrow.

As long as she has something to do, Daiyu will not always think of her mother, and then cry sadly.

Daiyu nodded without saying a word: "Eldest sister, second sister, let's go together."

After all, their time in the kitchen is not long, and one hour a day is enough.

Aunt Mei was not interested in this activity. She took a look at Yingyu when she first went to the kitchen, and she didn't want to do it herself, so she turned around and went back to her yard.

She would rather just sit in front of the mirror.

She also doesn't want to come to the countryside the most, she doesn't like the things here.

Jia Min went, and the mountain above her head disappeared. She was happy, but also worried, wondering if the master would marry again.

What's more, the master has to guard Jia Min for a year, that is, he won't have sex with her for a year, and she still wants to conceive a son, so how can she conceive?

And under such circumstances, don't even think about various entertainment activities.

She doesn't care about it herself, but she still has to worry about her daughter's reputation. There is nothing wrong with filial piety.

There are not so many rules here, except for the kitchen, Yun Shuyao will also take Luoyu up the mountain, here is just right to recognize the living herbs, know what they look like, and the mother and daughter learn together.

Pick those herbs, process them, and then use them to make medicinal meals, fire tea, etc.

Speaking out is still Luo Yu's filial piety.

This Yingyu was not interested, but when she found out that rabbits and pheasants could be seen going up the mountain, she also went up the mountain together.

Let Aunt Mei jump there, and earnestly persuade her not to go, "In case there are some wild animals, you can run up the mountain?"

Yingyu was a little helpless, "Auntie, we are surrounded by people, all around us, and this mountain belongs to our family, and someone has always taken care of it."

Don't worry.

A few of them went up the mountain, and there were female guards following them closely. Even if there were real beasts, there was no chance of approaching them.

In Zhuangzi, I wanted everyone to relax, but the old lady turned a blind eye and did not restrain her granddaughter. She was either chanting scriptures or praying for Chenyu when she stayed in the house.

She was fully prepared, but when Chen Yu was not in front of her, she still had a heart.

Lin Ruhai was also thinking about Chenyu.

The only difference between him and the old lady is that the old lady would repeat it many times a day, asking Chenyu where she was, what she was doing, and discussing when she would come back, while Lin Ruhai only mentioned it once or twice, and was more restrained.

Lin Ruhai also lost a lot of weight after this time.

I used to be in good shape, but now I am too thin, and I need to recuperate for a while to get my flesh back.

Yun Shuyao's place is where he comes most often now.

Although he doesn't stay overnight, he will come here and sit here for half a day.

He would not take the initiative to bring up Jia Min, except for this, he would talk about everything.

In the past, when Lin Ruhai came here, he talked about some very general topics, such as poetry and songs, calligraphy and painting, customs and human feelings.

Lin Ruhai is still her half master.

Then there is the child.

Everything about the child.

Talk about everything from what the child ate to how tall the child is and what he has learned.

But there is one thing, before he would rarely take the initiative to mention his affairs outside, as well as the human relations with his relatives and friends.

In Lin Ruhai, the division of functions is very clear.

That was the domain of the mistress, and he subconsciously wouldn't talk to Yun Shuyao about which official's wife's birthday next month, going to a ceremony, going to a banquet, or what a certain official wanted to do, May send someone to give gifts, be careful not to collect things indiscriminately at the porter...

Now he's starting to bring it up.

Because when the Lin family returns and contacts resume, some old ladies and Luo Yu and the others are inconvenient to go, so she or Aunt Mei will be required to go.

Just like other officials who did not bring their main wives with them, and the concubine took part of the responsibility.

Obviously, between her and Aunt Mei, Lin Ruhai chose her.

Yun Shuyao didn't reject this.

One is that the number of times like this will not be too many, and the other is that it is good for her to go out and walk around.

It's the age of twins.

You can't take care of it when you are old. At that time, the good ones have already been picked away.

She went to explore first.

If it wasn't for Jia Min's funeral, these two years should be the time to inquire about the Lin family.

The first is the right match.

Then there's the sex tendency.

Finally, there is personal conduct and so on.

Because the Lin family is under the banner of the Han army, they usually go to the draft.

The old lady hopes to be exempted from the election and get married on her own.

Because she was worried that her granddaughter would be accused of being a concubine to those princes and relatives.

Especially Yingyu.

Her appearance is in the same style as Aunt Mei.

But waiver is not so easy.

I don't know what she will do.

Sometimes Yun Shuyao also sighed, if someone traveled to the ancient times like her, still looked at the world with the eyes of modern people, and fell in love with Lin Ruhai, they would probably suffer a lot of torture.

The thinking of the two cannot be said to be right or wrong. In the eyes of people in this era, Lin Ruhai is definitely a good husband, with good background, good looks, capable, capable, not lecherous, respecting his first wife, and mourning the death of his wife. False, some people praise him for his affection.

But in the eyes of future generations, this peerless good husband is about to put a big question mark.

Deep affection?

One-to-one loyalty alone is a hurdle that cannot be overcome.

If you can't get over that hurdle in your heart, your life will be very painful.

She also analyzed Lin Ruhai's feelings for Jia Min.

In the end, I can only draw a rough conclusion, maybe there is love, but it is not true love.

Because they were not pure enough, they had intercourse before she and Aunt Mei entered the mansion. It is not that there are stories of a couple living together in this world.

Love is such a thing, whether it is from ancient times to the present, Yun Shuyao thinks that it is a luxury that cannot be found.

Find someone in the vast sea of ​​people who knows you, loves you, respects you, tolerates you and understands you, and is willing to sacrifice your life for you. It's too hard for people who give their lives.

In modern times, she also liked her first love at first, thinking that it was true love, but as she walked, she realized that it was an illusion, so they broke up later.

As the working hours increase and I see more and more, I have more and more doubts about my ability to have true love.

Later, she broke up with her second boyfriend, and she was sure.

My own heart is as firm as a rock.

In the relationship between men and women, it is difficult for her to fall in love with one person wholeheartedly, and to give everything for another person.

This recognition made Yun Shuyao rationally view the relationship between men and women.

When we go to the end of the world... There is basically no relationship between men and women.

Only the strong and the weak.

Only the fittest survive.

It was also there that she deeply understood what it meant to be a dog of peace rather than a troubled person.

As soon as she woke up, she was almost dragged into cooking, and it was a nightmare.

It was only later that I realized that it was just the beginning of the nightmare.

The last days are so difficult, but she still insists on it. There is no reason for her to die in such a peaceful society.

She will make herself better and better and adapt to society more and more.

Be the last one to survive.

Yun Shuyao is very satisfied with the current way of getting along with Lin Ruhai and has no intention of changing it.

They are both close and far away.

They have two children who are proud of them and talk about everything under the same roof.

They are subordinates, partners, or family members.

For the rest, Yun Shuyao is not eager for it.

-

Time passed, and 40 years into Kangxi, the Lin family was still keeping their filial piety, and the Jia family had done a great job, Lin Ruhai couldn't help frowning as the news came one after another.

Jia's family is also in the flag. When a girl reaches the age and needs to be drafted according to the rules, Yuan Chun will go.

She was not selected, and she was sent home to marry freely, but in the end she was sent to the palace to be a female history through the way of a small election.

This is Sima Zhao's heart, and everyone knows it.

Her status is to be selected to enter the palace as the master. If she is not selected, she usually gets married on her own. In the end, she would rather be a slave to enter.

The female history said that she was a female official, but in fact she was also serving other people. If the old man was still there, I wonder if he would vomit blood in anger after seeing this scene.

Thinking of the old Duke who passed away early, Lin Ruhai heaved a long sigh.

He could guess what the Jia family was thinking. Neither of the two uncles were outstanding figures, and it took time for the next generation to grow up. It will take at least ten years to climb up and sit in a high position.

And if their daughter has a status in the palace, their family will not have to decline too much in the past ten years, and when the younger generation grows up in the future, they can give some care.

Now that Yuanchun has entered the palace to work hard, the Jia family has other granddaughters, including an older sister who has entered the palace as a female historian, and when the time comes, they will say goodbye...it will be difficult.

The emperor is not too young now, the Jia family should be interested in the crown prince, but can she be assigned to the East Palace smoothly?

As it turns out, no.

When the news came that Yuan Chun was left in the Concubine De's palace, everyone in the Jia family was dumbfounded.

Concubine De was born in Baoyi, came out of Tong Jia's palace, and is now in a high position.

Would she let the people in her palace follow her old path?

After going to Concubine De's place, she is a pure worker!

Mother Jia was shocked by the news and fell ill.

Last year when Min'er passed away, Lin Ruhai wrote a letter, which greatly embarrassed her and allowed the Wang family to seize power. This time, she managed to get through the relationship and send her granddaughter to the palace. It was originally agreed that she would be assigned to the crown prince's uterus, but in the end... ...what the hell went wrong? !
