Summary: I am a good father

Well, maybe I really want to go around in the red building!

Lin Jiashi, the wife of Lin Hai, the inspector of salt in Yangzhou, was too sick to get out of bed. All the doctors in Yangzhou City and even the surrounding area shook their heads, expressing vaguely that it is better to make preparations early.

Apart from being busy with errands in the yamen, Lin Ruhai was busy with Lin Jiashi's funeral affairs the rest of the time.

In fact, all kinds of affairs in the house have been prepared!

Lin Jiashi and her husband used to have a deep love, but no amount of affection could last. In addition, Lin Jiashi did not give birth to Lin Ruhai's son to inherit the blood.

It was so easy to have a concubine three years ago, and Lin Ruhai and his wife loved it like pearls and treasures. Unfortunately, God played tricks, and the concubine lived to be three years old, and died of a cold.

For Lin Ruhai and Lin Jiashi, this was a huge blow!

It's okay for Lin Ruhai to be a big man, and he can bear it better after all, but as a woman, Lin Jiashi is not good. Her health is not very good, and now she has no son.

The situation of Lin Jiashi can be imagined.

People in the world are stupid, so Lin Jiashi was the one who was blamed. She was originally a sensitive and delicate person. After listening to a few gossips, she got sicker and sicker, until now she was dying.

Lin Jiashi also regretted it at this moment, but unfortunately it was already too late.

Now her only concern is not her husband, but her only daughter, Lin Daiyu who is ill.

Maybe it's because the parents are not in good health, so the child's health is not going anywhere. Anyway, since Daiyu was born, she didn't learn to eat, and she has already started to take medicine, which is basically soaked in medicine jars.

Weaknesses and persistent diseases brought about by the mother's body, apart from taking good care of them, there is nothing they can do!

Fortunately, the Lin family is a well-to-do family, even ginseng and bird's nest day and night, can afford it, and it is easy to raise their daughter to the age of keeping her head.

Moreover, both parents are extraordinary people, so Lin Ruhai has been raising her as a son after her daughter was enlightened, in order to comfort the emptiness under her knees.

Parents' precepts and deeds, coupled with Lin Daiyu's incomparable intelligence, and even sometimes, Lin Ruhai would tell her some secret things in her officialdom and court like a trash can, which can be regarded as letting herself relax. one two.

Even though it was a little unethical to do so, for Lin Ruhai, Lin Daiyu had the function of a tree hole. His daughter was by no means an ordinary man!

After Lin Daiyu was five years old, Lin Ruhai was too busy with errands in the yamen, and didn't have much time to teach her daughter to read and write, so she invited a Jinshi and a well-educated scholar to give lectures to her daughter. .

_(:3」∠)_

#Since ancient times, it has always been a world of faces! #

But now that Lin Jiashi is seriously ill, as her only daughter, Lin Daiyu naturally stopped her homework and stayed by her mother's side all day long, serving soups and medicines.

Looking at her sallow and emaciated daughter, Lin Jiashi's affection was beyond words. No matter what, she had to arrange a way out for her daughter before she could leave with peace of mind.

Even though she knew her husband valued her daughter, Lin Jiashi was still worried in various ways. She was just a loving mother, and no one could criticize her!

Today, after Lin Ruhai had finished handling the affairs of the Yanzheng Yamen, he had just entered the mansion when he saw the nanny next to his wife waiting at the gate of the mansion.

"Master, Madam said that she is asking Master to come over, she has something important to discuss!"

The mother-in-law said to Lin Ruhai.

Fortunately, it wasn't bad news, Lin Ruhai heaved a sigh of relief, and nodded to the mother-in-law, expressing that he knew.

After going to the back house, Lin Ruhai, who had washed up and changed into homely clothes, let her go to the backyard.

As soon as he entered the main courtyard, he heard the laughter of the mother and daughter in the house. He hadn't heard such a voice for a long time, and Lin Ruhai was even stunned for a moment.

But soon he restrained his mind and walked in.

"Master is back!"

"Daddy!"

The two women, one big and one small, looked back at Lin Ruhai, his heart suddenly softened, and he smiled,

"Well, Yu'er has grown up a lot and is able to do a lot. I don't know who will go to the boy in the future! It's just hateful!"

Hearing his joking words, Lin Daiyu blushed, stomped her feet, covered her face, and ran away!

"Yu'er, watch your feet, don't trip!"

Lin Ruhai shouted at the top of his voice.

"The master is too narrow, teasing my daughter like this, let's see if she doesn't annoy you."

Today's Lin Jiashi has dressed up carefully, the makeup covered her sick appearance, and she is in good spirits, but Lin Ruhai remembered that word-returning to the light!

"You are much better today, and you will be able to take care of it well. In the future, you will have to find a reliable husband's family for Yu'er, find an outstanding son-in-law, and more importantly, save a dowry for your daughter."

Lin Ruhai said to Lin Jiashi with a gentle expression.

"Master, there is no need to comfort me. No matter how I am, I know better than others how I am. I'm afraid it will be soon. Let the master come over today because I have something important to discuss!"

"You said."

After Lin Ruhai was depressed for a moment, he finally spoke.

"My lord, after I leave in the future, if my lord remarries, can I send Yu'er to Beijing and let my mother raise her for a few years?"

"Don't worry, I'm already at this age, why should I continue to marry? As for sending her to Beijing, let me think about it."

Lin Ruhai told the truth that it is the world's situation that a widow and eldest daughter do not marry, so if Lin Ruhai does not remarry, then Lin Daiyu's future marriage may have many twists and turns.

"Well, there's one more thing, I'm not sure about paying attention to it, master help me to go into details."

"Tell me, as long as... I haven't disallowed you."

Lin Ruhai nodded happily.

"My mother wrote many times, wanting to make a marriage arrangement between Yu'er and my natal nephew, but when I was a girl, my relationship with my second sister-in-law was not very good, so I have been hesitating until now. What do you think of this matter?"

"But that Baoyu who was born with jade in his mouth?"

Lin Ruhai frowned and asked.

"That's true, but I heard from my mother that Baoyu is extremely intelligent and motivated, so she is a good relative, but because of my relationship with my second sister-in-law, I have been hesitant until now."

"Family girl, all families are begging! Yu'er is still young, so she is not in a hurry. If Baoyu really makes progress, she can do it. If Baoyu doesn't make progress, and if she makes a hasty decision now, wouldn't she be cheating our daughter?"

Lin Ruhai was quite tactful and authentic.

"It's true, but the master is thoughtful. After all, I am a housewife, so it is inevitable that I have some mistakes. These years, thank you for your forgiveness."

At the end, Lin Jiashi's eyes were already red.

"As the wife of the Lin family, you are very good. You are filial to your mother and raise your children. You can't be more thoughtful."

Lin Ruhai seemed to feel something, and with red eyes, she nodded seriously and said.

"With these two sentences from the master, I will die immediately, and I will be satisfied!"

Lin Jiashi hurriedly took out the silk handkerchief in hand, wiped away her tears, and said to Lin Ruhai with a smile in her tears.

The husband and wife spoke a lot of things one after another, Lin Jiashi explained many things, and Lin Ruhai agreed one by one.

When it was time for dinner, Lin Jia used a few extra chopsticks for rice, Lin Daiyu was so happy, seeing her daughter like this, the husband and wife were also full of joy.

It's a pity that that night, Lin Jiashi let go in his sleep, leaving behind the helpless father and daughter.

While Lin Ruhai was asking for leave from the yamen, he was busy preparing to reveal the affairs behind his wife, keeping his feet on the ground.

As for Daiyu, she was kneeling in her mother's mourning hall, her eyes were swollen like walnuts, she was in a daze, she didn't think about food and drink, she didn't care about food and drink, it really made people feel distressed to watch.

Lin Jia's funeral was over, and Lin Ruhai took his daughter to send his wife's coffin to the old house in Gusu for burial.

Now that he has returned to Gusu, as the patriarch of the Lin clan, he naturally has to deal with the affairs of the clan a little bit. The population of the Lin clan is withered and the branches are not prosperous. In Lin Ruhai's generation, they are basically just kittens and puppies. The situation of three or two.

Lin Daiyu's generation is even worse, there are only two or three males, and they are all sick, and they have been soaking in medicine jars for years, which makes people feel sad.

On the outside, the relationship between Lin Ruhai and the clan is not very harmonious. After Lin Ruhai's father, Lord Lin, passed away, he left behind Lin Ruhai, mother and son, orphans and widows. With a heart, he also loves to ignore the clansmen.

Up to now, the Lin family has withered even more. If Lin Ruhai turns a blind eye again, I'm afraid that the Lin family is not far from being finished.

After finishing his wife's affairs, Lin Ruhai found a famous local doctor and arranged for the men and women in the clan to diagnose their pulse and take care of their bodies. Everyone take care of your body.

He was so active, I am afraid that he forgave the clansmen, and everyone felt very sorry for it for a while. The old people in the family were withering one after another. The elders kept secret about the past, so the younger generation did not know the past. For Lin Ruhai This patriarch is not close to the clan, so he really has some ideas.

It's all right now, the patriarch's deeds are finally happy for everyone.

Lin Ruhai didn't think too much, all men, women and children in the clan began to practice pure Wudang Tai Chi.

There is no formula for internal strength, but it is just suitable for the Lin clan to exercise their muscles and bones and take care of their bodies.

For the elderly, the effect of adults is naturally not too effective, but children are very different. After half a month, I don't know if I am dazzled, but I always feel that the child is much healthier than before.

Lin Ruhai stayed in Gusu for more than a month, and it's time to repent of Yangzhou. There are a lot of things waiting for him to deal with in the yamen.

Although Lin Ruhai left, he didn't take away all of the family's sacrifices to the farmland and the store's future, but kept most of it as a source of care for the clan, which also won everyone's favor.

It seems that the patriarch also knows the importance of the clan, what a blessing!

Several clansmen who didn't know the inside story read the Tao.

However, in the Rongguo Mansion in Beijing, after receiving the funeral report from the Lin family, Mother Jia was so sad that she passed out directly. After waking up, she would only cover her face and cry for her poor daughter. Erdi can control her sadness.

Thinking of the only flesh and blood left under her daughter's name, Jia's mother's loving mother's heart surged,

"We must bring back my poor granddaughter!"

Mother Jia ordered the family members who went to the funeral to say goodbye.

"Old lady, don't worry, we will definitely convey your meaning to Uncle Lin!"

The leading woman is the eldest daughter-in-law of Grandma Lai, Mother Jia's confidant. Now that her mother-in-law has gone to support the family, she is the proud person in front of Mother Jia.

"Okay, okay, in such a world of ice and snow, please take a trip, it's hard work for you, and there is no need to rush on the road, safety is the first priority."

The capital city in March is indeed cold and windy, and the snow does not melt.

"What's the old lady saying? Isn't this what we should do?"

After a few more instructions, the servants and women were sent south.

In fact, it's not that he doesn't want to send a capable master, but coincidentally, the only capable person, Jia Lian, the eldest grandson of the old lady, is so sick that he can't get up or get out of bed, so there is nothing he can do.

As for the other grandson, Jia Zhu, he is not in good health, so who would dare to work on him?Besides, he was busy studying and preparing for the exam, so it was hard work!
