Red Mansion(8)
Lin Yutong heard that the girl came to report that the master had an invitation. Without hesitation, she got up and went to the study. By the time she arrived, her brother had already arrived.
Seeing that her brother's face was a little gloomy, she chuckled in her heart. The child rarely lost his temper. In front of this cheap father, with such a look, I knew that I must be extremely unhappy.
"What's wrong. Lin Yutong hurriedly asked.
Compared with Lin Ruhai, she naturally cares more about her younger brother.
"Sister!" There was grievance in his voice.
"Speak well, manly man, what do you look like. Lin Yutong frowned.
Lin Yuyang handed the letter in his hand to his sister: "You can understand it by looking at it." ā
Lin Yutong took the letter and read it roughly. It turned out to be a letter written by the old lady of the Jia family to Lin Ruhai. The meaning of the expression is that the child is back, and her grandmother is very happy. Not only was she happy, but she was also happy for her dead daughter. I am glad that the Lin family finally has a queen, and I am glad that her granddaughter Daiyu finally has a sibling. She said that she dreamed of Jia Min and often cried in her dreams, feeling that there was no son under her knees, and there was no sacrifice to be made. Therefore, she mentioned yƬ very sincerely and recorded their sister and brother in Jia Min's name. and take them to Rongguo Mansion to raise.
After reading it, Lin Yutong admired the old lady's thoughtfulness and cheekiness.
She smiled dismissively. didn't care that Lin Ruhai was beside him, so he said directly: "Just this little thing, it's worth it when you're unhappy! You don't have to think about it." The old lady is trying to trap us, and she also wants to put a rein around our necks. Give her a grandson, what do you want to do. When it is cooked, it is easy to slaughter, and the meat is sold for eating. ā
"Poof!" Lin Yuyang couldn't hold back and laughed.
Lin Ruhai is also a little helpless, it is a good thing that this child is clear-minded, but this straightforwardness makes people feel very embarrassed sometimes.
"Laugh what a laugh!" Lin Yutong glared, "That's it, my face is on my face." Joy and anger are invisible, you have to practice well. ā
Lin Ruhai couldn't let her play like this, and asked: "You have a knot in your heart for your wife, and this is known to your father." But it is good for your future if it is written in the name of your mother-in-law. ā
"Today, we can ignore the grievances of our biological mother for the sake of our future. So tomorrow, what can we do for the future? Such a person, can you believe it. Do you dare to entrust it with big things. Lin Yutong did not have a hard top with Lin Ruhai, but explained the reason for refusal from another angle for the sake of his brother's future.
Lin Ruhai was stunned all of a sudden. If the two of them ignore the grievances of their biological mothers, then can these two children still believe it? Even the people who can give up their own mothers, what else they can't give up.
Yutong is just a girl. But what about poplars. He's going to be an official. Such a person, the emperor may use it, but he won't believe it. Then, for the rest of his life, he can only become the knife of the person in power, and not the minister of the humerus.
Thinking of this, he suddenly looked at the two of them differently.
Yutong is a girl's house, not only to see deeply, but also to see far. And she refused so directly and skillfully, that people couldn't be angry with her.
It's a pity that this kid is just a girl.
"For the Father knows. Lin Ruhai said directly, "I will reply to the capital, and this matter will be stopped." ā
Lin Yuyang smiled at this time.
Lin Ruhai took the opportunity to say: "However, there are some things that I have to do at this opportunity." One is that you entered the family tree, and the other is that your aunt's grave should also be moved back to the ancestral grave of the Lin family. This has to be done back to Gusu. The meaning of being a father is to send someone to bring Daiyu back first, and then we will go to Gusu together. ā
Lin Yutong took a deep breath. The matter of entering the family tree is inevitable. That's what makes sense. As for the matter of moving the grave, she felt that it didn't matter, but she knew that her brother must attach great importance to it. Besides, the aunt of this body, I'm afraid that I also hope to have such a day before I die.
She nodded silently, "Just do what my father says." ā
Seeing that the look on Lin Ruhai's face was also relaxed, he knew that he was actually more nervous than himself. So, he changed the topic and said, "In addition, I have to ask my father to find two well-behaved grandmothers." My brother and I, after all, grew up outside, and a lot of etiquette is also like a cat and a tiger, and it is very sloppy. In my own home, I don't feel anything. But when I see outsiders, I'm afraid I'm going to be embarrassed. Before returning to Gusu, learn the rules well. Not to mention the rules and etiquette, you have to look like one. ā
Lin Ruhai had actually thought of this problem for a long time, but he was afraid that these two children had strong self-esteem, so he suddenly proposed to learn the rules, afraid that the two would feel that they disliked them and looked down on them. Originally, I planned to get acquainted with each other after a while, and then slowly put it on the agenda. Unexpectedly, it was the girl who brought it up first. And the son's face was also a look of recognition, without the slightest disgust. This is because he sees the two children's hearts too narrowly.
Lin Ruhai's eyes were too obvious, and it was difficult for Lin Yutong to know what it meant. She smiled: "This is the same as 'following the customs' and 'singing what song to the mountain'." Don't ever be an outlier in your community. There's no big mistake. ā
Seeing his son's face being taught. Lin Ruhai said in his heart, the world is insightful and knowledgeable, and the practice of human feelings is all articles. That's a good thing. It seems that the world is transparent, but it is not much to read.
The days passed in a flash. Lin Ruhai's letter and the people who picked up Lin Daiyu have all arrived in the capital.
Mother Jia sat on it, and below sat the two daughters-in-law, Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang. Wang Xifeng stood quietly to the side and did not speak.
"If you want me to say, whether it is recorded in the name of my aunt or not, I am the same as my aunt's son. Mrs. Xing looked left and right, and when she saw that Mrs. Wang didn't speak, she couldn't help but say something first.
Idiot!
Jia Mu didn't even lift her eyelids.
Wang Xifeng sneered in his heart, his mother-in-law is such a foolish person, and she prefers to pretend to be smart. As soon as he spoke, a stupid energy emerged.
Mrs. Wang nodded, but responded, "That's what the eldest lady said." "I can't see if I really think so, or if it's just to give face to the eldest lady.
Mother Jia sighed in her heart, saying that this is all the Lin family's business. In the case that Uncle Lin is in good health, all calculations are actually empty. I just don't know what Aunt Lin's body is. Now I am in a hurry to pick up Daiyu, and I am in a hurry to worship my ancestors, but I am afraid that it is really the end of the crossbow.
There has been no news from Yangzhou for several days. I don't know if something happened to these people, or if things haven't changed much.
But no matter what, I'll have to let someone else see it for myself before I can make another plan. The father of the family wants to pick up his own girl, and this grandfather's family can't stop it.
"Who did the Lin family send to pick up Daiyu? Shi Shi turned his face to look at Wang Xifeng and asked.
"Back to my ancestors, four grandmothers, four daughters-in-law, and four big girls. In addition, there are the second housekeepers of the Lin Mansion, and dozens of servants in their prime. Wang Xifeng replied with a smile, "It can be seen how much Uncle Lin likes Sister Lin." This kind of pomp and circumstance is not available to ordinary people. ā
Shi Shi nodded, Aunt Lin didn't pay attention to these things before. This time, everyone knows the pomp and circumstance, but there is some dissatisfaction with the house.
She set her eyes on Wang, this daughter-in-law, whose temper is really stinky and hard. Looking at Heshan Muna, he actually has an idea in his bones. As long as she has made up her mind, she doesn't want to change.
The same is true for Daiyu's opinion. She doesn't look down on Daiyu, but she doesn't want to think about whether Aunt Lin looks down on Baoyu. Although she loves Baoyu, she is not confused in her heart. Knowing his own child, people may not see it in their eyes.
"Although it is pompous, but in the end they are all subordinates, where can my wife rest assured. I hurt the two Yu'er the most, which one is a little inappropriate, and it can kill me. Shi asked Wang Xifeng, "What about Lian'er, let him go to Yangzhou and send you Sister Lin." By the way, I also met your Uncle Lin. When the matter of Yangzhou is over, I will definitely bring Daiyu back to me. and my granddaughter, whom I had never met, took it over. ā
didn't mention Shi's arrangement, but said that Lin Daiyu heard that her father sent someone to pick her up, and she was overjoyed for a while.
When I saw the servant wife of the Lin family, I first asked about my father's body. Knowing that his father was healthy and thanks to the care of the eldest sister who had just returned, he couldn't help but feel a little grateful in his heart.
The servant woman is also clever, how can she not know the second girl's thoughts, and only said in detail about Lin Yutong and Lin Yuyang, "The eldest girl is a cool personality and takes care of the house properly." The uncle is a scholar, and he tells the master about some articles every day, but the slaves and maids see very little. The uncle is in charge of the affairs of the outer courtyard, and he does not enter the inner courtyard when he is idle, and he will not talk to the girls and mothers-in-law in the inner courtyard unless necessary. ā
Lin Daiyu was stunned for a moment, and always felt that there seemed to be something in this.
She was a smart person, and remembered that when they came in, she was running into Baoyu coming out of the house with an unhappy face. I'm afraid that these people think that Baoyu is not very appropriate here.
But Baoyu is different from others. That's what he was all about. These subordinates in their own family don't know love, and it's nothing to make a fuss.
The mother-in-law looked at the second girl's inattentive appearance and secretly remembered it in her heart. When I go back, I have to talk to the big girl.
said that Baoyu went out of Daiyu's room and was sullen all the way. Zijuan happened to come out of Shi's place, and when she saw Baoyu, her heart couldn't help but move.
