Little Lady of the Red Chamber

If the empress dowager's temperament had not been provoked by someone, she would never have mentioned the matter of the side concubine after Tu Yuanrui had already expressed her attitude.No matter Chen Wangfei or Tu Yuan Ruigu knew this point well.The affairs of the inner house are naturally decided by Princess Chen, if she refuses, no one will be able to enter Yong'an Palace.But even so, it doesn't make sense.

Tu Yuanrui sneered, "Don't worry, Concubine Mother, I know it well." It's just a weird trick.Naturally, he didn't pay attention to it, and sent Daiyu back to Lin's house for a short stay this time, just waiting for him to settle the matter before returning.

"Since these people dare to reach out, let them know the pain." Princess Chen replied.After exhorting his son, he suddenly thought of something, took a sip from the teacup, and looked at his eldest son with a smile, "Yesterday, Yu'er ran into that girl Shui Yun in the palace."

Tu Yuanrui's expression remained the same, he just raised his eyebrows and said: "It's normal to encounter a big banquet in the palace."

"Yu'er just came here earlier, and she is also weak. I really didn't take her out, and now it's almost the same. When Yu'er returns home, I should take her out to meet people. I don't bother to say, Shui Yun is so Although the girl is gentle and docile, I really don't like Shui Rong. I don't care why you are with Shui Rong, just be careful." Princess Chen said.The Beijing Palace intends to marry with the Palace, and it has chosen her eldest son, Princess Chen naturally knows, and even the girl Shui Yun is most likely interested in her son.In all fairness, Concubine Chen has nothing to dislike about Shui Yun. She is gentle and docile, neither arrogant nor impatient. It's just that people pay attention to the law of fate. Although she likes everything, she is just mediocre. Of course I don't stop it.But her son didn't mean that much more than him.Since this is the case, don't delay other people's talents, but unfortunately no one appreciates her kindness, but it is so troublesome that everyone in the palace now thinks that she has such intentions.The Beijing Prince's Mansion is really good at calculating, not to mention Yu'er, even if there is no such thing, she will not let Shui Yun in.

Tu Yuanrui only responded lightly, and after a while, someone reported that the carriage and horses were ready, he stood up, but turned around before leaving the door and said: "Mother and concubine don't have to mention the matter of the Beijing Palace with Yu'er."

Concubine Chen laughed out loud immediately after hearing this, "I thought you really didn't respond, why are you afraid that Yu'er will find out?"

"Where is the concubine mother thinking, it's just that there is no need to make her think too much." Tu Yuanrui said.

"Even if I don't mention it, there are a lot of people who know about it. You can't stop everyone's mouths. If you want me to say that since it's nothing, there's no need to hide it. You don't have to wait for Yu'er to hear it from other people. Instead, you will know better." Thinking wildly." Concubine Chen disagreed with the eldest son's words, Yu'er is smart, it's better to make it clear than to hide it.Zuo Yuer is still young, I'm afraid she doesn't have those thoughts, most likely she doesn't care.

Tu Yuanrui frowned slightly and thought for a while and said: "Wait a little longer!"

After tidying up, Daiyu said a few words to Princess Chen, and then accompanied by Tu Yuanrui back to Lin's house.Tu Yuanrui always rides a horse when he goes out by himself, but he usually rides a carriage with Daiyu.

Fortunately, the two were already very familiar with each other, so Daiyu didn't feel overwhelmed.Looking at the commotion outside through the screen window, there was a little curiosity in his eyes.

Tu Yuanrui looked interesting, "But want to go down for a walk?"

Daiyu turned around and said with a smile, "On weekdays, I often hear Brother Yang talk about the bustle of the street, and I just find it interesting." Although she wanted to, she knew it was inappropriate.

After hearing this, how could Tu Yuanrui not know what she was thinking and just smiled and said: "I can't do it today, I'll take you out for a stroll tomorrow!"

"Is this appropriate?" Daiyu's face showed a gleam of joy, but she felt inappropriate again and hesitated.

Tu Yuanrui only said: "It's not in the way!"

Daiyu smiled when she heard the words, her bright eyes shone brightly, taking advantage of the fact that she was becoming more and more charming.

Today Lin Hai heard that his daughter went home to stay for a while, so naturally he agreed. Although this son-in-law was not what he wanted, but as he said, after seeing people's hearts for a long time, and seeing his daughter getting better and better, the dislike in his heart was much less.Now seeing Tu Yuanrui, Weng and his son-in-law are still at peace.

Lin Hai said a few words to his daughter, and asked someone to take Daiyu back to his yard to rest and settle down.Weng and son-in-law went to the study to talk.

"The Zhen family is probably in a hurry. There was a fire in Yangzhou, and Xu Yan's family was wiped out, but they never found the account books." Lin Hai straight to the point, frowning obviously very worried.Although he left Jiangnan, Lin Hai has always been paying attention to the affairs of Jiangnan. Xu Yan is one of the big salt merchants in Jiangnan, and he has always been attached to the Zhen family.

Although the news was a little shocking, Tu Yuanrui only raised his eyebrows normally, "The Zhen family is so bold, but they are relying on the emperor. The situation in the south of the Yangtze River is still in anxiety, and your majesty wants to slow down first."

Lin Hai heard that although he was still worried, he only nodded: "It can only be like this, but although the Xu family is dead, since Xu Yan intends to leave a way out, I am afraid that he may not be unprepared for the Zhen family. If he can find the account book, it will be It's not easy for the emperor to protect the Zhen family anymore."

Tu Yuanrui thought for a while, then nodded and said, "But if you give it a try, I will send people south." Weng and his son-in-law agreed on this matter, and Tu Yuanrui will stay in the palace soon after he is going to enter the palace today. After saying a few words, he left.

Lin Hai is now the only master of the Lin family, and the mansion is very quiet, and it is only lively when Daiyu comes home for a short stay.Daiyu has always been a filial piety, and she worried that her father would be alone in the mansion. Whenever she went back to the mansion for a short stay, she would have to accompany her father to have meals every day, or cook for her father to make tonic stew to nourish her body.

Rao Lin Hai never cared about these things, and his daughter's persuasive advice also put a lot of thought into it.He only thought of being good for his daughter, and only his good daughter could rely on him.

"I just heard from Nanny Liu that my father is going to bed late again these days. Didn't the imperial doctor say that? When he can't read books, father should pay attention to his body." After dinner, the father and daughter talked, Daiyu couldn't help but blame My father didn't care about his body.

Lin Hai only smiled and said, "It's just that there were more things in the past two days. Okay, my father will pay attention to it in the future, so I won't let Yu'er worry about it. Now Yu'er has become the big housekeeper, and my father dare not refuse to listen."

"The daughter cares about the father, but the father makes fun of the daughter. I won't mention it anymore." Daiyu said.Seeing this, Lin Hai laughed, and then looked at Shui Lingling's daughter, and said with relief, "If your mother is still seeing you looking so healthy, she must be happy."

Sitting next to her father, Daiyu comforted her softly, "Mother Quanxia Youzhi must hope that my father is well." Lin Hai didn't want his daughter to worry about this, so he smiled and agreed.

In fact, Lin Hai didn't think of his dead wife all of a sudden. The day before yesterday, Jia's mansion sent someone to give gifts for the Mid-Autumn Festival. Naturally, it wasn't those servants who came but Jia Lian.After all, the Lin and Jia families hadn't completely broken off their relationship. When the quarrel happened back then, Lin Hai took the opportunity to provoke the relationship between the two families of the Jia family.However, the relationship between in-laws has always been so easy to break, how could he send back the dowry of his dead wife, he really broke up with the mansion, if he couldn't, it would be nothing more than estrangement.

Naturally, Jia Lian was not stupid. When Lin Hai came out, the glory brought by the Jia family because of Yuan Chun's concubine became a joke in an instant.The mansion is not without anger, but the men of the Jia family are not doing anything, but the Wang family can't ignore it.Wang Ziteng is a rare person who understands the four families of King Xue of Jia Shi. Although he is the emperor's confidant, but not to mention that Lin Hai himself is a minister, how can the Yong'an Palace be easy to get along with? But it can't control the guard camp.With Wang Ziteng's advance, Jia Lian would not dare to offend Lin Hai, but he just wanted to make friends.

He naturally understood why the suspicion between the two governments had arisen, and if he wanted to resolve it, he had to start with Daiyu.Although the Jia family felt guilty about Daiyu's marriage, Daiyu had been raised in Jia's house for many years and was brought up by Jia's mother. If she really broke ties with her family because of this, Yu Daiyu's reputation would not be good.The world is like this, if Tu Yuanrui hadn't woken up, the world would naturally feel sorry for Daiyu being a widow at such a young age, it's really pitiful.Naturally they would condemn the Jia family for being unrighteous, but Tu Yuanrui came to his senses, if Daiyu broke ties with the Jia family again because of this matter, and disregarded Jia's mother's upbringing, the world would blame Daiyu harshly.

Of course Jia Lian didn't dare to speak so clearly, but his earnest words seemed to be for Daiyu's benefit, Lin Hai just laughed.He sent him away with only a few words, but he never responded.

Compared with the Lin family, the palace is naturally more comfortable. After all, everyone in the palace is under the care of the concubine, and brother Yang is with you in your spare time.But Daiyu was worried about her father, and had to go back to the mansion for a temporary stay every few days.

But he didn't think that within two days after she returned to Lin's mansion, someone from Jia's family came to the door, presumably it was a good idea to inquire, otherwise it wouldn't be such a coincidence.

Wang Xifeng and Li Wan took the three sisters of the Jia family, Xue Baochai, and Jia Baoyu who insisted on following, and a mighty group blocked the door of the Lin family.Daiyu frowned slightly when she heard Butler Lin's report, she was really not allowed to enter, so she could only sigh and let Butler Lin lead her to the small flower hall.

"If the concubine Shizi doesn't want to see her, I'll go and send her away." Aunt Chen also didn't like the behavior of the Jia family's insistence, so she said.She is a high-ranking aunt in the palace, so she naturally has this status.

Daiyu shook her head slightly and said: "The two sisters-in-law and the sisters are all right, there is no need to be like this."

Now that she agreed, Daiyu didn't delay, and called Zijuan and the others to change their clothes for meeting guests, and then went to the small flower hall to meet her former sisters.

At that time, everyone in the Jia family in Xiaohua Hall had their own plans. Jia Baoyu walked back and forth, looking at the door from time to time, with anxiety in his eyes.If it was in the past, Wang Xifeng would naturally have to joke a little bit, but today he has no bottom in his heart, but he doesn't have the heart to talk too much.

Jia Tanchun tightly held the handkerchief in his hand, looked sideways at Xue Baochai who looked calm and said softly: "Sister Bao said, will Sister Lin see us?"

"Of course, don't worry, third sister." Xue Baochai said with a smile.

As soon as the words fell, Baoyu's surprised voice sounded "Sister Lin!" The people rushed out.
