Daoist Lin sister [Red House]

But it is said that Lin Ruhai went home from the Yamen on this day, and every house on the way prepared wormwood in front of the door.Lin Ruhai was full of doubts, the Dragon Boat Festival was just around the corner, why didn't he hear back from the letter he sent to Yue's family, so he called the housekeeper Lin Fu to inquire as soon as he entered the door.

Lin Fu hurriedly replied: "Coincidentally, the person sent by my wife's natal family to give gifts has just arrived and is having tea in the ear room."

Lin Ruhai didn't care about changing clothes, and hurriedly met the visitor.

The person who came here was not a serious manager, but he was usually a small manager who came and went for purchases, his name was Lai Shun.When Lin Ruhai asked questions, he couldn't answer eight out of ten sentences. He just kept saying that the master of the house was good, and that Lin Daiyu was even stronger.

Lin Ruhai didn't ask any more questions, and just took the family letter to read.But it was not Lin Daiyu's own handwriting, but Jia Zheng's book. After introducing the situation of each person in the two houses, he said a lot about the guests in his house, which seems to be quite unclear.It was only mentioned at the end that Daiyu was fine, so he didn't have to worry.

Lin Ruhai was a little displeased, but seeing that the gifts sent back by Jia's mansion this year were more generous than in previous years. Although the day was late, the road was far away, and perhaps there was an accidental delay.As long as Daiyu is fine, he will be at ease.Putting aside the displeasure temporarily, he ordered Lin Fu to entertain Lai Shun himself, and rewarded him with a lot of money.

In this way, on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, Lin Ruhai returned home early, and as soon as he entered the door, Lin Fu hurriedly greeted him.

"Returning to the old man, the old lady of Rong Guogong's mansion personally ordered someone to send the girl's family letter back quickly, and now she is waiting in the flower hall!"

"Oh?" Lin Ruhai was puzzled, why didn't Yu'er's family letter come back with the ceremony, and sent someone to send it again, fearing that something unexpected happened to Daiyu, so she went into the flower hall.

This time, Lin Zhixiao's nephew, Lin Miao, was sent by Er Jia's mother, who was the most responsible person.

Lin Ruhai didn't bother to listen to his greetings, and read the letter after receiving it.It is indeed written by Daiyu herself, and the lines between the lines are full of homesickness, sincerity and filial piety.Lin Ruhai has recently felt that her body is not as good as before, and she has hidden worries, so she misses Daiyu very much.Seeing Daiyu's words again, it is true that father and daughter are connected, and the love becomes more and more uncontrollable.

Until seeing Dai Yuyan talk about how her grandmother and others doted on her, the long-suspended heart was completely let go.

Lin Miao won a big award for this.

However, I never thought that the next day, when Lin Miao left, a group of merchants came to the door, claiming that there was a letter from the imperial censor's daughter on his behalf.

At first, Lin Fu didn't believe it and wanted to drive him away.The silk dealer took out a silver ingot as proof.

Lin Fu took it over and saw that it was the silver ingot specially prepared by the mansion for Daiyu as a reward for servants!

Because Daiyu disliked the smell of gold and silver when she was young, Lin Ruhai specially ordered someone to engrave a Wuxin bamboo on the silver box and silver ingot for Daiyu.

Knowing the truth, Lin Fu hurriedly asked the root cause and rushed to the yamen to report to Lin Ruhai.

"What? Another letter from home?" Within ten days, Lin Ruhai received three letters from home from Rongguo Mansion. How could he not be suspicious?

Lin Ruhai lifted the letter up into the air and examined it carefully. Although the envelope was not signed, there was a circle of swastikas engraved on the sealed beeswax, which was Daiyu's habit of praying for blessings.

Lin Ruhai didn't hesitate any longer, and read the letter carefully.

Unexpectedly, after only a moment, Lin Ruhai couldn't help but yelled: "Ants dare!" Lin Ruhai opened his letter, his eyes were full of mottled tears, and his heart tightened.Seeing that Daiyu talked about it from the beginning in detail, and told everything about what happened after entering the mansion, she couldn't help but put frost on her handsome face.

When she saw Lin Daiyu laughing at herself that she was relying on Jia's family for food and drink, relying on others, relying on others, and even being ridiculed by her servants for being stingy and inferior to Miss Xue from the imperial businessman, Lin Ruhai scolded bitterly and almost turned over the copy in anger.

Lin Fu served Lin Ruhai as a young boy, and he had never seen him lose his temper so much. He also knew that Lin Ruhai's qi was weak and weak due to busy work, so he was afraid that he would get angry, so he hugged him from behind and persuaded him: " Master calm down, calm down, your body is important!"

It took a long time for Lin Ruhai to calm down and read the letter.At the end, Daiyu mentioned that she had a big dream not long ago. She dreamed that her father was lingering and sick, and no one was taking care of her. In the autumn of next year, she would abandon her and drive west.She was left alone, like duckweed, lonely and helpless, and finally died in a foreign land with only a thin coffin for burial.

Seeing what happened afterwards, Lin Ruhai was only left with misery, and sat down slumped, trembling and unable to speak.

Although he knew that what was written in the letter was Daiyu's nightmare, but after careful consideration, it is not known whether he can survive until next autumn with his current situation.If he really left here, how could Rongguo Mansion treat his precious Yu'er well with the way it is today?

Thinking of this, Lin Ruhai didn't hesitate any longer, and immediately ordered Lin Fu to invite his wet nurse Mama Li, and ordered her to go to Beijing to visit Daiyu, and earnestly instructed that if the situation was not right, she would quickly take Daiyu home regardless of Rongguo Mansion's face.

Not to mention how the nursing mother abandoned the boat for a horse, and went to Beijing day and night to pick up Daiyu home.Shan Biao Lin Ruhai was convalescing at home while taking care of business. Suddenly, a servant reported that there was a guest.

Lin Ruhai ordered to come in, but it turned out that it was Zhen Yingjia who came.

"Youzhong, you are a rare visitor today." Lin Ruhai said bluntly.

Zhen Yingjia, whose name is Youzhong, replied with a smile, "I heard that you have taken a leave of absence and are recuperating at home. I am thinking of you and my brother, who have not seen each other for more than a year, so I am here to visit you."

The Zhen family and the Jia family have always been close and united.After Jia Min and Lin Ruhai went to Suzhou to take office, the contacts between the two families became even closer.But now, Zhen Yingjia is also busy with work, and they haven't visited each other in person for more than a year.

Zhen Yingjia came to visit suddenly today, Lin Ruhai felt quite different.

The two sat down as guest and host, and after gossip, Zhen Yingjia took the initiative to talk about Jia Yucun.

It turns out that since Jia Yucun became the magistrate of Jinling and got some "official protection charms" from his disciples, he has mastered everything, and has become more and more diligent in being an official.Taking advantage of Xue Pan's case of murdering and seizing his wife, he blatantly outsmarted Jia Shi Wang Xue's four families and successfully climbed to the high branch of Wang Ziteng. Now he seems to be a member of Wang Ziteng's subordinates.In today's Jinling territory, Jia Yucun has the final say on everything, just like the Tu Emperor.

If it's just that, it's fine.Jia Yucun's appetite was so frightening that he searched for people's fat and people's ointment, wishing to dig three feet into the ground and drink blood without leaving a hair.Not to mention the poor, the lowly, the rich, the rich, the poor, the peasants, the businessmen, the three religions and the nine streams. It's just too much to pluck the feathers. It is not too much to say that he is greedy, ruthless, and greedy, and he is better than gluttony.

The more Lin Ruhai heard this, the more he felt something was wrong. This Jia Yucun was recommended to Jia Zheng by him, and it is normal for him to seek refuge with Wang Ziteng now.In the three years of Qing Dynasty, the magistrate received [-] snowflakes, not to mention the extremely rich Jinling.Jia Yucun couldn't bear the temptation, and greedy for money and power is also within human nature.

But like him, he extorted money so violently that he even tortured the gentry, and even offended Zhen Yingjia, the local snake in Jinling.If you put all your eggs in one basket, the picture must be big, and if it is not guaranteed, it is on the throne.

The muddy water of seizing the first son, not to mention that he is the confidant of the present, even if he is the prince, Yue's family, he will definitely not go there.And Zhen Yingjia came here today to tell herself these things, but why did she not know what she wanted?Lin Ruhai thought to himself.

After Zhen Yingjia finished speaking, seeing Lin Ruhai's eyes rolled a few times, he picked up the teacup and made a gesture to froth the tea, blowing dryly but refusing to drink it, so he knew that this friend was waiting for his next words, so he simply confessed his intentions generously.

Although he, Zhen Yingjia, is not with the favor now, he can only get a vain job in the Qingshui yamen, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse.His Zhen family has always had an unusual relationship with the Jia family. The Jia family and the Wang family are related to each other, and the Wang family is also considered a prominent family in Jinling. Comparatively speaking, the Zhen family and the Wang family have always been close to Jia Yucun.

Today, Jia Yucun disregards his identity as Zhen Yingjia, and exploits the face of the Zhen family.Aside from those rituals and the daily welcome and delivery, the Zhen family already manages a lot of money for the prince every year. Now that they are so hard-charging, Zhen Yingjia is not only unable to bear it, but also feels a little bit suffocated. sex.

The Wang family just relied on the prince to gain power and gained a bit of face, so they were so defiant.Could it be that his prince Teng thinks that I, Zhen Yingjia, are steamed buns and let him decide?

The more Zhen Yingjia thought about it, the more angry she became, so she personally went to the house of her friend Lin Ruhai and sued him about Jia Yucun and Wang Ziteng.

After Lin Ruhai listened carefully, he bowed his head and muttered silently.He knew that Jia Min's second elder brother, Jia Zheng, was a bit of a hypocrite, slightly pedantic, ignorant of general affairs, and not good at dealing with people and the world.But his distant relative, Prince Teng, is a very cunning person. He has become a first-rank official with his own strength, and has repeatedly violated official taboos.It's not that he doesn't know people so well and mistakenly believes that Jia Yucun is here.

Sure enough, it is easier to blame others than to blame oneself, but Lin Ruhai did not expect that Jia Yucun was recommended by him at first, and he also hired Jia Yucun to be Lin Daiyu's husband.If anyone is to say who doesn't know people clearly, Lin Ruhai bears the brunt of it.

It's just that he can't blame him, Jia Yucun is a person with real talent and learning after all, and his Jinshi was actually obtained by himself.And when Lin Ruhai hired Jia Yucun as a teacher, Jia Yucun was a Jinshi who had been dismissed from office.A Jinshi who had been an official condescended to be a teacher to a four-year-old girl, but he was wronged.When Jia Yucun took refuge in Lin Ruhai, he was really an unsuccessful talent, and Lin Ruhai was right about this.

It's just that Lin Ruhai was not born with great ambitions. He was much more enlightened and far-reaching than Jia Yucun, Wang Ziteng and others in his official career.They couldn't understand the lofty aspirations of those two people who wanted to reach the sky with their hands and eyes and go straight to the sky as soon as they got their ambitions.

Can't understand, but it doesn't mean don't understand.

His relationship with Jia Yucun had never been hidden from anyone, and anyone who cared would know it as soon as he inquired about it.

The Yan government is rich and deficient, but it also attracts jealousy. Fortunately, Lin Ruhai is well aware of this reason, and has already intended to abdicate to let the virtuous.In addition to Jia Min's early death, he had only one young daughter, Daiyu, who was like an "extinct family". If he said that he intended to seize the heir and betray the lord, no one would believe it.

It is also because of this that the emperor is more assured that he will be the patrolling censor for many years.

He even made preparations early and sent Daiyu to the capital. He originally planned to use the big tree of "One Family and Two Dukes" to protect Daiyu and let her rely on her grandmother, uncles, and aunts to find a good marriage.Even if one day he encounters unexpected accidents and lets go, Daiyu can have a good home.

But now it seems that Jia's mother is old, Jia's government is pedantic, and Mrs. Wang is narrow-minded, so she can't protect Daiyu well.

Presumably, he still has to rely on him to hold up this old bone, not to mention seeing Daiyu get married, but also to help her book a good family before doing the damn thing.

Lin Ruhai's thoughts turned, and he thought about the things in front of him and behind him, but in Zhen Yingjia's opinion, it was just a cup of tea.

Lin Ruhai's plan was made, he stood up, bowed to Zhen Yingjia with a smile, and said, "I have a friend who will tell you the truth, and Ruhai will remember it in my heart. As for the future, you will be loyal and wait for the good news."

Lin Ruhai was reminded by Zhen Yingjia, inspired a little vigor in the illness, and decided to prolong his life.

To express his gratitude, Lin Ruhai let out a little bit of rumors, beat Jia Yucun, who was overjoyed, and wrote a letter to the emperor, offering good words for Zhen Yingjia, helping him get promoted and finding a real job.This is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being.
