The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

But when Lin Hai came to the post house, the clerk at the door heard that he was in a hurry and said, "Master Lin, someone has been waiting for you for a long time." He shouted, "Brother, Master Lin is here."

I saw a boy who looked like a servant ran over and kowtowed to him: "Hi, my aunt! I am by the side of Third Master Cong of the Rongguo Mansion. Our young master sent me here to wait for my aunt. I just want to ask my aunt If I have time to go see Miss Lin, if he doesn't have a letter to send back, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Miss Lin to explain. On the other side, Mr. Zhang is invited to come over to the mansion." Seeing that Lin Hai was still stroking his beard and thinking, he added One sentence, "Our young master said that the world is not as big as a child."

Lin Hai thinks that her daughter has already lost her whole heart, if she doesn't look forward to seeing each other?I just feel that this meeting was a bit abrupt in the past.After hearing this, he immediately threw away his worries and said, "I'll go after a little tidying up!"

The young man responded: "I'll go back and report the letter first, then my aunt will come?"

Lin Hai nodded, and the boy kowtowed again and ran away.Lin Hai couldn't help laughing, the boys around Jia Cong were somewhat similar to him.Sure enough, he packed up the meeting and went to Rongguo Mansion.

At this moment, Jia Zheng and Jia Lian are both in the yamen, and Jia Amnesty is still in the escort agency. When Lin Hai arrives at Rongguo Mansion, he will naturally meet Jia Mu first.Lin Daiyu got the gossip from her young disciple, and found an excuse to wait at Jiamu's place early on. When she heard the news that "Master Lin is here", she stood up happily.Mother Jia is busy, please come in.Jia Cong had been waiting in a hidden place outside Jia Mu's courtyard, and when he heard the message from his servant, he hurried in to join in the fun.But it's inconvenient for Jia Mu to fork him out at this moment, so he has to let him go.

When Lin Hai entered the door, he saw his daughter, who was so graceful and graceful, she had grown up a lot compared to before, and she couldn't help but shed tears.Jia Cong has always been an unruly person, so he dragged Daiyu and went to Lin Hai.Daiyu knew that according to the rules, his father had to salute to Jia Mu first, and then she saluted to her father herself, but she thought that it would be better if she could be with her father as soon as possible; His feet then involuntarily let him pull over.Lin Haizong is polite, how can he resist his instinct?When the father and daughter met, they couldn't care less about it, and cried with each other.

At this time, Baoyu hadn't finished school yet, and the only man in the room, Jia Cong, didn't intend to intervene at all, and was still crying with him, so no one persuaded him for half a day.Mother Jia coughed twice, and seeing that Jia Cong didn't respond, she beat the ground twice with her cane, but he still didn't hear him.I had to look at the mandarin duck, and the mandarin duck hurried over to persuade him.It's just that she is a girl after all, and although what she said is appropriate, it doesn't quite reach the ears of the father and daughter.Mother Jia had no choice but to wait.After a long time, the two gradually stopped crying, and Fang came to salute Jia Mu.Lin Hai apologized repeatedly before losing his manners.Jia Mu sighed, "it's human nature."

After everyone sat down in turn, Mother Jia asked, "Young Master, are you going to be transferred to Beijing?"

Lin Haidao: "Today's face-to-face meeting is just to reminisce about the past, and the future is still unknown. I'm afraid I still have to go back to Gusu for one more term."

Jia Mu nodded and said: "It is natural to serve the country, and my uncle also needs to take care of it in his spare time." Then he asked, "Where does my uncle stay now?"

Lin Haidao: "This trip is urgent. The old house in Beijing has not been repaired for many years, so it is temporarily staying in the post house."

Mother Jia hurriedly ordered "quickly clean up the guest room with my uncle".

Lin Hai waved his hand and said: "No, I'm in the post house, it's very safe, business and meeting friends are cheap."

Jia Mu asked, "Don't you get closer to Yu'er?"

Lin Hai was startled.

Jia Cong hurriedly interjected: "I heard that the post house in the capital is very big and beautiful. Many adults and foreign envoys who came to Beijing lived in the post house with their families. Uncle and Sister Lin's father and daughter only got together for a long time. Cherish every moment, why don't you take your sister to live in the post house?"

Jia's mother immediately criticized: "Nonsense! How can a girl from a good family live in a posthouse!"

Lin Haidao: "It is true that many adults live in post houses with their treasures, but the rooms are smaller."

Daiyu hurriedly said: "Living with my father, how can I be young?"

Seeing that Jia Mu was about to open her mouth, Jia Cong hurriedly asked, "Uncle, will you leave after the new year?"

But Mother Jia also wanted to know, so she kept silent and waited for Lin Hai to answer.

Lin Haidao: "Although I don't know when I will go back, I will naturally celebrate the New Year in Beijing."

Jia Cong said: "There are still two months before the Chinese New Year, plus the Chinese New Year, the time is not short. Sister Lin is a very delicate character, and it may not be appropriate to live in the post house for so long."

Jia's mother nodded again and again: "Boy Cong is right."

Because she spoke slowly, although there was another sentence after this sentence, it was not as good as Jia Cong's small steel teeth, and he stopped in front of Jia's mother and said, "Uncle Lin must have many friends in Beijing. Pick up your Brother Xian Wang. Ask them to borrow an idle small house, and they will be embarrassed to charge you for rent."

Lin Hai naturally knew that Mother Jia wanted him to live in Rongguo Mansion, but based on his status and the words of the sage just now, how could he live here?Just now I was still thinking about how to explain the inconvenience to Mother Jia, and how to take Daiyu out, I couldn't help laughing: "Cong'er is smart, this idea is good, I will send someone to borrow a house from Xianwang Qiansui go."

Jiamu opened her mouth several times to say something, but she finally gave up when she heard the title of "virtuous king", she was still very regretful: "It's no problem to live in this mansion, daily life is convenient."

Jia Cong came to add to the confusion again: "Then... Uncle often goes out to meet guests, and the servants call 'Master Gu' every day, how shameless, does our family have a small house next to the mansion? Uncle brings a lot of entourages Yes."

Jia Mu suddenly thought of Lixiangyuan.If that place is empty, how convenient would it be for Lin Hai to live there?Baoyu can go to ask for advice every day.It was the Xue family who let the second child's family take over, and I regretted it in my heart for a while.However, she calculated the whole house carefully, but she couldn't find a second very convenient courtyard, so she had to let it go.Lin Hai then seriously sent someone to find Situ Pan to borrow the house.

Hearing that just now Jia Cong said, "Brother Xianwang came to pick you up just now", Jia's mother asked again: "Is it true that the Xianwang Qiansui personally went to pick up my uncle? How did Conger know?"

Lin Hai caught a glimpse of Jia Cong blinking at him vigorously, and said: "When I came, I met a boat on the way back to Beijing. I went all the way and arrived at the same time today. It happened that the owner of the boat was a friend of Cong'er. Then we met at the pier." He didn't say much.

Grandpa Jia She and the three didn't want Jia Mu and others to always think that their eldest house had an escort agency outside, but inside the mansion they only said that it was to find jobs for Jia She's former soldiers, and that they didn't usually have any business, just spending money. Nurturing.After hearing this, Jia Mu only said, "It's better than wasting money idle", so she put it aside.He also knew that Jia Huan and Jia Cong, who were in charge of the bodyguard bureau, made it difficult for students to study every day and only went to practice boxing and kicking. It became more and more obvious that Baoyu was reliable, and often sighed to Yuanyang and others, "Baoyu will not even have a helper in the future."

Jia's mother took a look at Jia Cong: "What kind of friends does every family have?"

Jia Cong said: "He used to be Brother Feng's friend, and now he is also my friend. He is very skillful!"

When Jia's mother heard the words, she thought Feng Ziying had led him there.Because Feng Ziying usually took him around to play, most of the people he made friends with were martial arts practitioners, so that's all.Seeing that Lin Hai didn't mention the matter of the virtuous king at all, thinking that it was because he was too modest and refused to show off, he became more and more satisfied.

Not long after Baoyu came back from school, he heard that Uncle Lin had come, so he changed his clothes and came to meet him.When Jia Mu saw him, her brows and eyes widened and she hurriedly dragged her to Lin Hai.

Lin Hai saw the good-looking and polite appearance of this son, and he liked it quite a bit, so he asked some questions casually.Baoyu only read the third "Book of Songs" in front of his former master, studied ethnology for only two or three months, and never opened a cheat book. Although compared with ordinary schoolchildren, he is still very intelligent, because Jia Cong is the one who can help him. The reincarnated disciples who were a few years younger than the ones taught by the daughter are not very outstanding.So Lin Hai never took it to heart.

Lin Daiyu has moved to live with her sisters early now. First she was flattered by her young disciples, then Wang Xifeng sincerely took care of her, and in recent years, Jia Huan looked up to her and worshiped her. Although she still sees Baoyu as different from others, she has never been like the original book. Carefully.

The people who went to Prince Xian's mansion came back after a while.Situ Pan has a small courtyard in Lizhi Lane, which is very quiet. It was originally his usual place to treat friends. Because it is usually taken care of by urban people, it is very clean, and he can move in immediately.And he was so generous that he never took Lin Hai's rent.Lin Hai was overjoyed, and said to the steward who came over there, "I will go and thank you princes in the future", and hurriedly asked Daiyu to go back to clean up, and she will go there today.

When Jia Cong heard that the courtyard was not far from Rongguo Mansion, he could still visit it from time to time, and he was secretly happy.

Jia's mother hurriedly said: "No. Even if someone cleans it from time to time, it is not a place to live every day. It's already late today, so I will take Yu'er there now. It's not good if there is something inappropriate. No. It’s not too late to go tomorrow.”

Daiyu hadn't seen her father for so long, how could she be willing to go again tomorrow?It was inconvenient for her to refute Jia Mu's words, and she was secretly anxious.

Jia Cong saw that his husband twisted the handkerchief into a ball, and immediately said: "The old ancestor was overwhelmed. Even if there is something wrong, it is only a small matter, such as not liking the incense in the incense burner, and the old gauze on the window is not good-looking. And so on. There will always be problems such as unclean beds? How can Brother Xianwang’s place be worse than an ordinary hotel? My sister’s daily bedding and clothes are naturally brought there, and it doesn’t take a lot of effort.”

Jia Mu originally wanted to say that if the bed and bedding were not neat, but she let him be blocked by a "brother virtuous king", annoyed: "My lord is talking, how can you interrupt, and then go out rudely."

Lin Hai glanced at Jia Cong with a smile, and hurriedly said, "Even if there is a censer with a window screen that doesn't fit your eyes, it's inconvenient for people to change it. It's always an excuse."

Jia Cong spread his hands together: "But here again! What's wrong with that? Sister Lin has been looking forward to her uncle's letter to come to Beijing every day since she got the letter from her uncle. She's almost become a father's stone." laugh. "I've always been a kid and a mischievous one. If I don't see my father for a day, I will panic."

Coincidentally, Ziguang sent a letter to the bodyguard bureau, and Jia Amnesty was reluctant to let the excitement go, so Jia Si was chased back. Hearing this sentence at the door, his old smile blossomed, and he hummed: "Really? I can't see you, old man." How wonderful, but no one forces you to read and practice calligraphy every day."

Jia Cong let out an "Aww", and rushed over like a small cannonball to catch his father: "Father~~"

With a smile on his face, Jia She stretched out an arm to wrap his arms around him: "You brat!" Seeing this, Lin Ruhai and Baoyu were extremely envious.Jia Cong acted like a baby and acted like an idiot, hugging his old man's thigh and rubbing it inside.

Everyone saluted again.After Du'an sat down, Mother Jia couldn't bring up the matter of letting Daiyu go again tomorrow, so she just said, "Take all the maids and old women who are suitable for you." Daiyu agreed one by one.He also ordered Yuanyang, "Go and tell me, if I say it, let Zijuan and the others serve you well, and you will be rewarded when you come back."

This remark was actually inappropriate, but since Lin Hai was able to pick up his daughter, he didn't care about the others, and just laughed it off.

Jia Sheyin said: "These days there is a Mr. Zhang who is recuperating with me. He has the most profound knowledge and the most profound medical knowledge. This meeting has just come. I think my brother-in-law doesn't look very good. He needs to take care of himself carefully." That's right, why don't you go over and let him have a look?"

Jia Mu glared at him: "You don't know where to find the Mongolian doctor. Don't recommend it to your brother-in-law at will. Take my post and invite the imperial doctor."

Lin Hai knew in his heart that this was the doctor Jia Cong mentioned at the pier. According to the words of the servant next to Jia Cong just now, he might have invited him immediately, so he hurriedly said, "I just saw the imperial doctor in the palace. .Since it is necessary for my brother-in-law, the medical skills are naturally not bad, I am afraid that this gentleman will be too tired."

Jia Amnesty said: "People have come, how can you be tired? Just go and help your pulse, maybe you will miss dinner." He stood up as he spoke.

Jia's mother was unhappy, but it was not convenient to show Jia Amnesty in front of Lin Hai at this moment, so she had to let it go.

Jia Amnesty led Lin Hai into the car, Lin Hai was a bit surprised, but went up anyway.The car traveled quite a long way to Jia She's courtyard.At this time, Lin Hai had already remembered that Daiyu's letter said that Jia Shezhi's residence was the garden of the Rongguo Mansion, and secretly felt a little bit wronged for him.

After seeing Zhang Youshi, we greeted each other a few words and helped the pulse carefully.Mr. Zhang sighed: "My lord's liver, spleen and kidneys are all damaged. Fortunately, my lord has recuperated in recent years. Otherwise, I'm afraid this will be bad soon."

Lin Hai was surprised, many imperial doctors in the palace did not dare to say this, it was an old doctor in Gusu who said so bluntly, so he trusted him very much, and hurriedly asked for advice on what to do.

Zhang Youshi asked: "I think a sage watched it for my lord that day, can I borrow a recipe to watch it."

The prescription prescribed by the old doctor was kept by an old family member of his family, and the prescription just came along at this moment, and hurriedly took it out and handed it to Mr. Zhang.Mr. Zhang looked at it carefully for a long time, and sighed: "The student has stolen the teacher." Since he put the prescription neatly on the table, he saluted respectfully.He thought about it again: "This gentleman's prescription is very good, but now that you are in the capital, the atmosphere is different. I will temporarily adjust some medicines with you, and change them back when you return to Gusu."

Lin Hai hurriedly thanked him, and Mr. Zhang told him what to do on weekdays, and he didn't mention it when he went outside to prescribe prescriptions.Jia Amnesty opened his mouth to mention that Mr. Zhang's son had donated to the magistrate of Zhenjiang County. Seeing that his words were wrong, Jia Cong tugged at his sleeve and interrupted loudly.Although Jia Amnesty didn't understand why, he stopped talking.Lin Hai saw it in his eyes, even though he didn't understand it, it was fine.

Later, Jia Zheng and Jia Lian went to the Yamen and returned to the mansion one after another, and everyone met each other.Lin Hai was accompanied by a group of people for dinner at Rongguo Mansion tonight.

After dinner, he went to Jia She's courtyard to thank him for taking care of his daughter and to write letters twice a month.Jia Amnesty stayed with Jia Sigong Sanyi for such a long time, and he could see by his ears that the bastard temperament he had back then had long since disappeared, and the gangster aura he changed into was covered by the clothes, making him look very neat and generous.Lin Hai deeply regretted that he did not know people before: "I didn't know that my brother was such an upright person." Jia Lian and Jia Cong glanced at each other quietly, both secretly amused.

The two of them chatted for a long time, and Zijuan came back and said, "Miss, I've packed it up." Lin Hai wanted to leave.Jia Amnesty had a lot of interest in talking with him at this moment, he felt a bit reluctant, so he personally escorted him outside the gate of Yi, and asked him to have a cup of tea again tomorrow.

Lin Hai took the opportunity to whisper: "Today I am going to meet the Holy Spirit at Daming Palace, and I have two words to convey to Enhou."

Jia Amnesty was shocked and asked what to say.

Even though he knew that the court was in a difficult situation and the Jia family owed money and would not pay back a share of credit, Lin Hai still blushed when he said these words. "Does Enhou know that your family owes the treasury 80 taels of silver?"

Can Jia Amnesty not know?However, his mind was spinning quickly at this moment, and he was stunned: "Our family is very rich, why do we need to borrow money from the treasury? Where did Ruhai hear the rumors?"

Lin Hai just saw that he was refreshing, and heard the words of "don't eat minced meat". He was a little funny, and said, "I borrowed it when my father-in-law was around. If you don't know about it, you have it, and your mother-in-law must know."

Jia Amnesty pretended to be innocent and said, "Impossible."

Lin Haidao: "Enhou, you can ask the old lady or go to the household department to check. Isn't Lian'er in the household department?"

Jia Amnesty stroked his beard, thought for a while and said, "My brother-in-law will definitely not coax me, I'll go and ask. The saint... wants our family to pay back the money?" The wall is gnashing his teeth: No wonder we turned a blind eye and closed our eyes to let us plunder the private property of the slaves. The co-author is for this.

Lin Hai nodded again and again, finally holding back his embarrassment and saying what the saint said just now.After speaking, he couldn't bear to see Jia She's stunned look, so he hid his face and got into the car.

On the other end, Lin Daiyu got ready early, bid farewell to all the sisters and left the house with her father.

Jia Amnesty returned to the house and hurriedly called to his two sons: "Clean it up, go to the Escort!" Today the Escort is taking care of Liu Xianglian, and Gong Sanyi, Jia Sigeliu are all here.

Jia Cong was eating snacks, when he heard this, he was taken aback: "Huh?"

Jia Amnesty looked at him, "There's no need for Cong'er to go."

"Go!" Jia Cong hurriedly pushed away the snack plate, "Go!"
