[Red House] Raiders of life

After Jia Min returned to Beijing, she still went back to Jia's house.The children also went together with dignity, although she knew that apart from Daiyu and Lin Nuo who didn't know the details, the three of Lin Jin felt somewhat uncomfortable.But for her sake, he didn't say anything.

"The matter has not yet been settled. The old lady is old, even if the property of the Zhen family is really taken away, she may not know."

Jia Min said this to several children, but even she herself was not sure how credible it was.Mother Jia is indeed old, but she has never been blind and deaf. Although she doesn't care about things, she knows the situation at home.After repaying the money owed by the Ministry of Households, there is not much money in the family, and they are always extravagant, and they are used to extravagance.There is no outstanding man in the mansion, and there are no such lucrative gold and silver caves in the Zhuangzi shop outside.Over the years, it may be very difficult to maintain the prosperity on the surface.

For this, the family really blamed her.Jia Min understood.At this time, if a large sum of property from the Zhen family came in, who would not be tempted?For the sake of the whole family, even if Mother Jia knew about it, she would turn a blind eye, right?

Jia Min knows that her mother's love for her is not a lie, but she will never be able to compare with her second brother or Jia's family.She knew it well, and never thought about comparing it.It's just that when the critical moment comes, it's inevitable that it will be chilling again.

The children were all considerate of her, they only behaved well and comforted her in return.But this made her even more uneasy.

Listening to Jia Mu holding her hand and asking how these years are going well, talking non-stop, with love inside and outside, Jia Min can't help but feel a little soft-hearted, but when she thinks of...

As a result, her heart was in flames and in ice for a while, which made her suffer a lot, but she had to cheer up to deal with it.

"Brother Jin's daughter-in-law is about to give birth?"

"It's still some time before giving birth, but it's just a month old, and I didn't dare to let her go out, so I didn't bring her here."

"Well! She is heavy now, but she should pay more attention."

Jia Min responded, and said a lot of greetings to Jia Mu, and recalled her childhood. After three rounds of tea, Jia Mu mentioned Baoyu and Daiyu again. People's marriage, but it was mentioned in a vague way, so Jia Min pretended not to understand and didn't respond.This time, Mother Jia was straightforward.

"They are cousins, so they are closer than others. Besides, Baoyu is the one who values ​​girls the most. Ever since Xuxu passed the mansion the first time she saw her two years ago, she wished that this younger sister belonged to her. If Xuxu married over, Baoyu must be happy and will only treat her well. Besides, with me here, even if I go, your brother will still be there. If Baoyu dares to mess around, your brother will definitely make the decision. You can rest assured."

Jia Min's heart froze, his breath was stuck in his chest, he couldn't spit it out, he couldn't swallow it, it was really uncomfortable.There is a Marquis in their family now, but the Jia family only has a first-class general.Besides, it was Jia's amnesty, which had nothing to do with Jia Zheng.Of course, they had agreed on Daiyu's marriage for a long time, and they didn't pay attention to family status.

But the key is what kind of person Baoyu is?He really valued girls, but the key point was that girls from any family valued them.Not to mention Shi Xiangyun who grew up with him, but there is still Xue Baochai living in this mansion now!

Besides, he is already twelve or thirteen years old, and he can't be a martial artist if he can't write well, but his family still loves him very much.Lin Jin gave him a chance back then, and it's not like she didn't think about it at that time, after all, they are cousins, and Baoyu also likes Daiyu.If Baoyu can improve and correct those problems in her body, it is not impossible to marry Daiyu to him.But who knows that Baoyu didn't persist for half a month, and instead provoked Jia's mother to blame Lin Jin.How could she not be angry!

When Jia Mu saw her look of hesitation, she was a little displeased, "Why, don't you think Baoyu is not worthy of Xuxu?"

Indeed... not worthy!But Jia Min couldn't say this, she said in a deep voice: "Mother doesn't know, our family prides itself on being a daughter's family. Ever since she was born, the master and the old lady have been in pain. The old lady has already spoken , Brother Jin and the others’ marriages can be chosen by us, and the marriage that can be boasted can be according to her wishes.”

Mother Jia was stunned for a moment, her complexion was not very good, but she did not forget that Lin Ning gave her a straight face back then.In fact, she also knew that with Lin Ning's love for Daiyu, this marriage might not work out.What's more, the status of the second room is not good enough to match Daiyu after all.Every time she thinks about this, Mother Jia secretly resents why this title is not the second wife's. In this way, if the title can fall on Baoyu in the future, it will be enough to match Daiyu.

Now the Lin family is full of talents, Lin Ruhai is in the heart of the emperor, and he entered the palace the second day after he went to Beijing to meet the saint, and was promoted to a post of minister, especially the money bag of the whole country like the Ministry of Household Affairs.

On the other hand, looking at the Jia family...she had to think about the Jia family.The Lin family must be tied up.Now that Jia Min is still here, this relationship is still there.If she left that day and Jia Min left, the children of the Lin family were not very close to the Jia family, so what's the point!

Mother Jia's heart shuddered. Fortunately, she had prepared second-hand, son or daughter, you have to choose one!

"Brother Xun is fifteen, right? Are you engaged?"

Jia Min didn't think about it for a while, and was relieved to see that Jia's mother was not entangled in Daiyu's marriage. She smiled and said, "Not yet, but I'm optimistic about it. He chose this person himself. The daughter of the Anping Princess's family. You also know that Brother Xun has a good relationship with Anping Junma in the past two years, and he often goes to and from the princess' mansion. The two children are also familiar. The child is called Su Wan, who can chat with Xuxu. I also met her. It's generous, without the coquettishness of a daughter's family, but rather heroic. It's no wonder Brother Xun saw the right thing."

"No, I just returned to Beijing, so I mentioned this matter to me. I was afraid that I would feel that the girl's family was disrespectful. She also specifically said that it was because the two families knew each other well. He had met him several times from afar and had never done anything with her. Probably because she was worried that I would not agree, she secretly asked Xuxu and my mother-in-law to talk about it. It's really..."

Talking about this, Jia Min couldn't laugh or cry, "Just like him, I don't know if other girls think of him! Don't let him shave his head all the time, and he will make a joke of him!"

Although he said so in his mouth, he felt that his child was excellent in his heart.The two have similar temperaments, which can be regarded as a match made in heaven.

Mother Jia listened quietly, frowning slightly, the daughter of the Anping princess's family is not comparable to the Jia family.Fortunately, she didn't think it was Lin Xun at first, after all, the girls of Jia's family who were not married were all descended from concubines, not concubines.

"It's a good relationship. The two families know each other well, so they know each other well." After saying this, Jia's mother changed the subject again, "Brother Yi should also see each other, right? According to it, the second girl is also fourteen. This marriage is also a matter of course." It's time to put it on the agenda. You also know what kind of person your eldest brother and sister-in-law are, and they will worry about it. It must be that my old woman is the only one planning for the second girl. "

"Although the second girl is born of a concubine, the old family only has such a daughter, and she was raised by my side, so there is no need to care about the concubines. Brother Yi's health is not very good, and this marriage will inevitably be affected. I don't think it's better..."

Jia Min opened her mouth wide and looked at Mother Jia in disbelief.Lin Yi is in poor health, so he only deserves a concubine?Jia Min's body was trembling!Her son is free, intelligent, amazingly talented, what's wrong with him?

Not to mention Yingchun's status as a concubine, if she changed her family, she would be loved by her father and brother, and she would be raised by her grandma, who was a superstar.But look at the situation of Jia's family, Jia She pretended not to have this daughter, and Jia Lian didn't have any brother-sister affection for her, and she herself didn't necessarily have much brother-sister affection for Jia She and Jia Lian.It was raised by Jia's mother, but Jia's mother was old, and she always raised and didn't teach her granddaughters.

Although Lin Yi is not the eldest son, his daughter-in-law does not have to follow the standards of the eldest daughter-in-law, but if the family is separated in the future, he will still need to be in charge of the family alone. How can Yingchun do it?

Although Jia Min is far away in Yangzhou, the children have been in Beijing for two and a half years, how could she not understand everything about the Jia family!That is, every time Chang Daiyu wrote letters, she would talk about the affairs of her sisters many times.

"Mother! I don't agree!" Jia Min gritted his teeth and interrupted Jia Mu's words, "Mother, don't say any more! Whether it's a second girl or a third girl, it's not suitable. I will never agree!"

Jia's mother's face sank like water, "I know that Brother Yi is your legitimate son, and he was born in October, so there is no reason for you not to love him. You are thinking of finding the best in the world for him. Which mother doesn't think so. But you have to recognize the reality. Brother Yi is as good as he is, but he has the most obvious shortcomings. Which high family is willing to marry his good daughter from his own son, if Brother Yi has a chance, wouldn’t he be young? It's easy to be a widow!"

Jia Min's body is crumbling, widowed at a young age?Is this how my mother treats Brother Yi?Not to mention that Brother Yi is already in good health now, taking care of him is no different from ordinary people, and it will not affect his life expectancy.Even if it is, is this something a grandmother can say?

After all, Jia Min couldn't hold it anymore, and slumped on the chair, the teacup in his hand fell down with a thud...

The Lin Jin brothers heard the sound of the porcelain cup shattering as soon as they arrived at the door, hurriedly lifted the curtain and came in ahead of the maid, and saw Jia Min's face was pale, with wet tears still on his face, the four brothers yelled. jumped.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Lin Jin supported Jia Min, and when he held her hand, he realized that Jia Min's body was colder than usual, and he was still shaking.

Lin Jin was horrified, although he didn't know what happened, but thinking about it with his toes, he knew that it had something to do with Jia's mother.Lin Jin felt a chill in his heart, pulled Lin Nuo over and said, "Go to the sisters' side and tell your fourth sister that mother is not feeling well, we will go back home now."

Only Lin Nuo is young here, so it doesn't matter if he goes in or out of the backyard.Lin Nuo and Daiyu are the closest friends, and they used to play with the sisters together with Daiyu in the past.It's just that now that he has entered school, Lin Jin is afraid that he will be infected with Jia Baoyu's same problems, so he will not be allowed to follow Daiyu when he goes out as a guest, and he will take it with him and stay with him.

Lin Nuo agreed, and walked out the door in a flash. Jia's mother realized that she couldn't stop her even if she wanted to. She never thought that Jia Min's reaction would be so strong.From her point of view, Lin Yi has a strong body, so he will not be able to get up and down in marriage. At least their family still has a family background, and they will be born at any time in the spring, but they don't dislike Lin Yi's poor fate. Maybe one day he will become a short-lived ghost. !

"What are you doing? How long have you been here? You haven't eaten any food yet!" Mother Jia was anxious, thinking that they must be kept today, otherwise it would be even more difficult to get along with them in the future.

"Grandmother, can't you see that mother is very uncomfortable?" Lin Xun didn't pay so much attention to you, and his tone was a bit aggressive when he was angry.After finishing speaking, Lin Jin stopped Lin Xun, who glared at Lin Xun, and shut up very unwillingly.

It's not Lin Xun's fault, it's just that filial piety is so popular nowadays, Jia's mother is the elder after all, even if she makes mistakes, she won't allow the younger generation to contradict her.Fortunately, there was no one else in the room, if others heard it, it might be bad for Lin Xun.

Lin Jin bowed and said: "Grandma please forgive me, mother doesn't know what's wrong, she looks very scary at the moment. I should ask the imperial doctor to take a good look, but it's not good to ask a doctor to take medicine in your mansion. I'd better go back Good job going home!"

That attitude was actually very strange and alienated. Although she called her grandmother, she seemed to be calling someone irrelevant.In particular, he bit the words "I don't know what's wrong" very hard.Mother Jia couldn't help being smart, she didn't understand that Lin Jin was a warning in disguise.She was furious in her heart, when would a brat dare to treat her like this?It's a pity that at this moment, she at least knows that she can't get angry, otherwise, this relationship may really be broken.

Just as Jia's mother was about to speak, Lin Jin no longer looked at her. He bent over to help Jia Min get up, and said, "Mom, let's go home!"

Jia Min glanced at the children and said, "Okay! Let's go home!"

Let the children walk to the door with the help of several children, Jia Min stopped suddenly, turned around with a bright smile, and said to Jia's mother: "Brother Yi told me and the master a few days ago that I will take the provincial examination this year. In the spring of next year, I will participate in Chunwei. The master has already agreed. Mother might as well watch it. After the rankings are released next year..."

Jia Min didn't finish speaking, but just smiled lightly.

Lin Yi is not very old, but he is very knowledgeable.The head of Yanshan Academy also said that it's time to end.Lin Ruhai also watched his homework, and only said that he was better than Lin Jin.There is still such a long time until next year, as long as Lin Yi works hard according to Lin Ruhai's plan, there will be no accidents, not to mention a Jinshi, even a first-class one is fine.

Yijia... In other words, even in the end, he is still a Tanhualang.After next year, Lin Yi will only be 15 years old. 15-year-old Tanhualang, how many people should I envy?What kind of woman can't be found by then!

Just wait and see, I will definitely find the best one for Brother Yi!

It was the first time that Jia Min stabbed Jia's mother so straightforwardly, and he felt extremely happy in his heart.Everyone in the world has relatives and distances, you have them, and I have them too!In your eyes, I am no better than the Jia family or my brother.However, in my heart, no one can compare with my son!

Sitting on the couch slumped, Jiamu suddenly realized that she seemed to have done something stupid today.

But Jia Min didn't say anything more, let alone stop for her, turned around and took a few children and left. After leaving the Rongshou Hall, he did meet Daiyu and Lin Nuo who rushed over.Daiyu wanted to ask a lot of questions, but she endured it, and followed Jia Min into the car silently, and carefully poured out the hot tea on the car and handed it to Jia Min.After Jia Min drank it and his complexion improved, he asked, "Is there any discomfort, mother?"

Jia Min smiled and shook her head, looked at the children who were looking at her worriedly and said, "Don't worry, Mom is fine."

Daiyu said, "Mother, did grandma tell you about my marriage to cousin Baoyu?"

Because Daiyu is protected by her father and brother, she has a cheerful temperament and often spends time with Su Wan. Now she acts more generously. If she wants to plan her own marriage in this way, other children may be embarrassed to say it, but she mentioned it generously. come out.

Jia Min smiled, "Mother won't agree. Not to mention mother, even your father, grandmother, and your brothers will not agree."

Daiyu smiled, "Yu'er understands. Yu'er doesn't worry about it at all. Yu'er knows that if anyone wants to marry me in the future, they have to go through the level of their parents and the level of their grandmother. Brother, as long as you choose, it may not be the best, but it must be the most suitable for me. Therefore, I will listen to you."

Jia Min poked her forehead lovingly, "Don't be ashamed!"

In fact, she didn't know in her heart that Daiyu was using this to make her happy!Seeing her like this, most of Jia Min's depression suddenly disappeared, and he said: "From now on, you don't come to this mansion."

Daiyu nodded, "Daughter knows. Usually I don't come here much. Even if I want to play with my sisters, most of the time I invite them to the house. If I want to come to my grandfather's house, there will always be brothers." Stay with me. Eldest brother will always take Baoyu to go. At their house, he has no chance to disturb our sisters' play. But in our house..." Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled, "Since elder brother taught him for ten days , he never dared to enter the door of our house again!"

Daiyu sneered, casually picked up some jokes between the sisters and called Jia Min, Jia Min's lingering gloom disappeared all at once.

After returning home, Lin Jin still insisted on inviting the imperial physician. It was the imperial physician Gong who was familiar with the Lin family. After taking two doses of medicine, I told her to relax and just evacuate, it's not a serious problem.

The children saw that Jia Min had taken medicine and fell asleep with their own eyes, so they dispersed.Lin Yi did turn a corner and went to Lin Jin's Academy of Calligraphy.

"Brother, do you still have the criminal evidence of the Jia family back then?"

Lin Jin directly took it out from the bookshelf and handed it to him, "What do you want to do?"

Lin Yi didn't answer, but instead asked, "What do you think, brother?"

"Two copies, one to the Ministry of Punishment and one to Jia's Mansion."

"The younger brother also has the same intention!"

The two brothers looked at each other and smiled.The emperor did not intend to move the Jia family at this time, so even if these criminal evidences reached the Ministry of Punishment, they would probably be temporarily suppressed.How could the brothers not understand this.But they know it, but it doesn't mean the Jia family knows it.Naturally, they can use this to beat Jia's house.

Within half a month, both brothers got the news that Jia Yingchun was sent to the residence of Prince Jing in a small sedan chair.
