Practical Life in the Red Mansion

On the return carriage, Gu Jing was very upset, thinking about what her mother said, what her aunt said, and Jia Min's explanation to her, but in the end, she still blamed Lin Yang for not saying a word to her. Ken explain.

Suddenly, a clear voice came from next to my ear, "I see that you have been worrying a lot, but you are not willing to leave your father-in-law and mother-in-law?" Gu Jing turned her head and saw Lin Yang holding his jaw in his left hand and a book in his right, as if he was just asking casually. One sentence, but the gentleness revealed in the words almost made Gu Jing's eyes burst into tears. This person is so calm and gentle at all times, and can be relied on at ease, but at this moment, Gu Jing doesn't want her husband to be so gentle. I don't want to see a restrained husband, I want to see his emotions.

Gu Jing forced back her tears, followed Lin Yang's words and said easily: "I always feel like I haven't seen my parents for a long time, why do I feel that they are much older." Lin Yang replied without raising his head: " If you want your father-in-law and mother-in-law, just tell your mother about it, no one in the family cares about it."

It was like this again, Gu Jing felt a little irritable, and pretended to be relaxed and said: "Someone mentioned your life experience during the dinner, I just thought it was a little funny, there are still people who believe such things." Then Lin Yang put down the book in his hand , turned to look at Gu Jing, his expression was serious and even looked a little cold, and he said, "Since you know it's ridiculous, why bother bringing it up, don't be like those gossips."

Gu Jing was a little stunned, as if she was surprised that Lin Yang would be so displeased, and a trace of embarrassment appeared on her face. Fortunately, at this moment, Zhang Zhu woke up suddenly and began to cry. Gu Jing hurriedly hugged Zhang Zhu to comfort her.However, the atmosphere between the two is difficult to return to the previous harmony.

Lin Yang could naturally sense the inappropriateness, but his mind was more focused on political affairs. On the first night of the opening of the office, he made up his mind to meet Lin Hai. Lin Hai did not object to his decision, but just smiled wryly. : "I thought I could take advantage of this opportunity to retreat, but after you leave like this, I have to hold on for a while."

A trace of shame appeared on Lin Yang's face and he said, "I'm the one who made my father tired." Lin Hai shook his head and laughed, "It's all a family, so there's nothing to worry about. You can just go south, I'm still supporting the family."

After Lin Yang and Lin Hai arrived at the night talk, they handed over a secret document to the emperor, which listed serious smuggling along the southeast coast, collusion inside and outside, and serious Japanese invasion.The emperor hesitated for a long time before replying to Lin Yang's note.

On the second day, a decree was issued to promote Lin Yang to be the censor of the Zuoqin capital of the fourth rank. Before everyone cast their envious and envious eyes on Lin Yang, he asked Lin Yang to be the governor of Fujian on behalf of the emperor.The eyes of everyone looking at Lin Yang are a bit wrong. No one knows that the situation in the south of the Yangtze River is very turbulent. Just now there is an urgent report that the Japanese pirates have come ashore again to plunder. In such a muddy water, the emperor actually let Lin Yang go, even if he was promoted to an official position. What can I do, maybe my life will be gone.

Gu Jing also wondered why Lin Yang came home so early today, who knew that Lin Yang's first sentence made her freeze her internal organs as if she was in an ice cave, Lin Yang said: "I ask for orders to go to Fujian, the emperor It's been allowed." There was no sound in the room, Gu Jing raised her hand to block the glare of the sun and said helplessly: "So, you'd better make up your mind, and tell me what to do?"

Lin Yang didn't speak but looked at Gu Jing silently, showing a trace of doubt as if he didn't understand Gu Jing's attitude. Gu Jing just felt that all the strength in his body was drained, and he barely supported his body by holding on to the table. She took a step forward and wanted to support her crumbling body, but was blocked by Gu Jing. Gu Jing said: "Master, have you ever thought about me and Zhang Zhu? I am your wife and your pillow. Big decision, you have to tell me in advance, this is considered a husband and wife, but now, you keep everything from me, I know some political affairs you don't want me to know, but why don't you tell me about me and Zhangzhu , and don't want me to explain a word. Uncle, do you treat me as a wife? "

A trace of doubt and confusion rose in Lin Yang's heart. He had never felt so overwhelmed. He had never met a happy marriage in his previous life. It has been passed down here for many years. Most of the women here grew up following the Four Books of Women, respectful, docile, and kind. Understanding people, he always thought that Gu Jing was like this, so he subconsciously thought that Gu Jing could understand and follow his mind, and would not want to explain to Gu Jing about many things on weekdays, but he didn't expect Gu Jing's reaction to be so big .He murmured: "Get married and obey your husband."

Before Gu Jing could speak, Zhang Zhu's cry came. Gu Jing's eldest girl stood outside the curtain and said, "Sister is crying so much, nurses can't coax her well." Gu Jing found her After losing his strength, he suddenly felt that he was too wishful thinking and pushed himself forward, but he was still not reconciled. The more he knew Lin Yang, the more he was attracted to him, and the less he wanted to spend his life with him in a polite and polite manner.

Gu Jing wiped away her tears and walked out quickly.

The two started their first cold war after their newlyweds. During this period, Lin Yang also tried to ease the relationship between Gu Jing, but Gu Jing was determined to ignore him. Later, Lin Yang's temper also came up. People are getting more and more stiff.

When Lin Yang felt bored, he received Daiyu's post, which only wrote the time and place, and nothing else. Lin Yang felt strange, but he still went to the appointment on time.

Daiyu entertained Lin Yang at the Fuyou Pavilion in the garden. When Lin Yang arrived, Daiyu was already sitting in front of the small red clay stove, waiting patiently for the tea to boil. Lin Yang strode up to the pavilion and said with a smile: "What do you want from me?" Daiyu smiled without saying a word.

Lin Yang sat down opposite Daiyu, looked around and said to Daiyu, "Did you invite me to drink tea and admire the plum blossoms? You are the only one who is interested in this." Daiyu still smiled and did not answer, motioning Zhu Xuan to take it. With the two packages prepared, Lin Yang asked strangely: "What is this?"

No one answered in the pavilion, Lin Yang wanted to go up to check but was stopped by Zhu Xuan, Lin Yang sat down on the chair with some frustration and said helplessly: "You guys have something to say?"

The tea on the stove was gurgling, and Daiyu started to cook tea unhurriedly, her movements were flowing like clouds and flowing water, and she said casually: "Brother is very smart, why can't you guess what I want to do?" Lin Yang didn't think about it He replied: "If you don't tell me, how would I know."

Daiyu raised her head, gave Lin Yang a meaningful look, and said, "It turns out that my brother is also an ordinary person without mind reading skills. I know that if you don't say it, others won't understand what you mean." Lin Yang was taken aback by Daiyu. Embarrassed, Si coughed and said, "What's in your jar?"

Daiyu chuckled, and didn't intend to continue to embarrass Lin Yang, and said, "Put one or two salted plum blossoms soaked in honey in the tea, and the fragrance is very unusual." into the tea bowl in front of me.Lin Yang understood what she meant and smiled wryly, "You..."

Daiyu said seriously: "I shouldn't be a sister-in-law meddling in the affairs between you and sister-in-law, but you are going south soon, mother is worried about you, I don't want her to worry about you and sister-in-law, so I have to take care of you." Mind your own business."

Lin Yang covered the teacup with both hands and whispered: "I just think your sister-in-law just needs to obey my wishes." After hearing this, Daiyu said: "Although it is said in the Four Books for Women that women should be gentle and respectful, but It’s not just to make us obey, you have to know the priorities. My brother always thinks it’s his own business, but he forgets that you are the husband of your sister-in-law, the father of Zhangzhu, and their pillar. You suddenly said that you are going to a dangerous place. How can my sister-in-law accept it?"

Lin Yang retorted: "I know that this time I acted arbitrarily, but I also explained it to your sister-in-law."

Daiyu only felt a little helpless in her heart, and said, "Brother, do you think this is enough? You apologized once without telling your sister-in-law, and she forgives you. When the same thing happens again, do you apologize again? Brother never I wondered why sister-in-law was angry."

Daiyu sighed and said, "You said you hoped that sister-in-law would obey your thoughts, but if you don't tell sister-in-law what you think, how will sister-in-law know what you think?" Daiyu looked straight at Lin Yang and said in a low voice: "In the end , does my brother still treat his sister-in-law as his family? If he regards his sister-in-law as a family member, he will be concerned about her feelings, and he will think about how to tactfully explain this matter. "

Lin Yang avoided Daiyu's eyes in some embarrassment, and Daiyu said softly, "I don't know what my sister-in-law is thinking, but when I think about it, if he treats me like this in the future, I will definitely feel sad." Lin Yang answered immediately: "If he dares to do this, I can't spare him."

Daiyu was both moved and amused, and said angrily, "Brother, I'm your younger sister, you don't want me to be treated like this, but sister-in-law is also someone else's younger sister."

Only then did Lin Yang begin to reflect on his own attitude. He always felt that marrying Gu Jing was like a responsibility. He just felt that he should be considerate of Gu Jing and care about her, but he was not willing to do these things. He accepted Gu Jing in his heart. Although he accepted the arranged marriage in this life, he felt that he had to take it step by step. He always felt that two strangers had to get to know each other before they could become husband and wife. In fact, although I want to understand each other in my heart, I am unwilling to take that step, and I am lazy in the marriage to this life. I subconsciously feel that after being a relative for a lifetime, there is no need to understand each other.

Daiyu gently pushed the unmoving plum blossom tea in front of her to Lin Yang. Lin Yang looked up at her, and Daiyu smiled brightly and said, "My brother can't save himself and said he wants to taste this plum blossom tea. What about my younger sister?" You have to be empathetic and take the first step.”

Lin Yang took a sip, feeling the lingering fragrance in his mouth, and said, "Thank you very much." But Daiyu said:
