15. Hongyun is here again
Within two months, Jia Min told her daughter that Mr. Jia had gone to Jinling to wait for a vacancy and would not be able to teach her in the future.
"Didn't Daddy help him?" It's better not to help, Daiyu said secretly.
"This, the selection of officials is a matter for the ministry, how can your father meddle casually. But the entanglement is enough for him, your father will not treat him badly, don't worry. Jia Min also said comforting when her daughter was worried about her husband.
Great, Daddy is good, even if I didn't mistake you, Daiyu cheered in her heart.
"Your father found a talented man, saying that he is a master of calligraphy and painting, and if he is willing to sit in the museum, it is the best." Since Jia Min heard that Jia Yucun had been dismissed for greed and favoritism, he felt uncomfortable like swallowing a fly. I don't agree to find any more jinshi to move, and let Lin Ruhai ask about his character experience, if his character is not right, no matter how good he is, he can't learn it well.
"Hmm." Daiyu lowered her eyes, but her mind had drifted into the distance, according to the trajectory, next year will be the year of Jia Min's death and the second waste prince.
If it was before, she would probably simply think that Jingyu had survived, and Jia Min should be fine. But after experiencing Lang Zhong's misdiagnosis, Mama Hu fed Jing Yu with an excessive amount of sugar water, and Mama Liu did the same in order to prevent Jing Yu from losing weight, and then Lang Zhong prescribed a fatal prescription, she was no longer so naΓ―ve.
Someone is dealing with the Lin family and wants the Lin family to be ruined. If this person is not found out, Jia Min will still be in danger.
Not only Daiyu was worried, but Lin Ruhai also paid close attention to the changes in the direction of Jinling. After the crown prince was reinstated, the royal father and son only made love for a few days, and they began to be suspicious of each other again. Now the father is not the father, the son is not the son, the court is up and down, and everyone is in danger.
Since the incident of Langzhong, Lin Ruhai has rejected the prince's hint of reaching out for money three times, and he knows that this move will definitely make the prince hold a grudge. So he is also carefully observing what to do next.
"The Thirteenth Master is going to come to Yangzhou to raise money and food, you can prepare." After Lin Ruhai learned the news, he discussed with Jia Min.
"What do you mean, master?" Jia Min Bingxue is smart, and she knows that the master wants to transfer the silver originally reserved for the prince to the thirteenth master as military salary.
Seeing Lin Ruhai nodding, Jia Min didn't stop in his hand, and while twisting a handkerchief to wipe his sweat, he said angrily: "It's not good for anyone, this master is just a bald prince now." β
The implication is that this deal is not a good deal, but rather an investment in someone else.
Lin Ruhai waved his hand, "The Thirteenth Master is for state affairs this time, the war in the northwest is urgent, this money is hot, it is better to do some help for the imperial court." β
"It's all up to the master, I'll be ready tomorrow to ensure that I won't delay the master's affairs." Seeing him say this, Jia Min hurriedly agreed.
The Thirteenth Master came faster than they expected, and this time, he brought his sister-in-law Hongyun again. When the Thirteenth Master's subordinates hired a carriage to send Hongyun to the Lin Mansion, he himself was chatting and laughing at the dock with the local gentry who greeted him.
Jia Min received the post, and waited until he welcomed people in to know that the thirteenth master meant that he didn't bring his female dependents with him, so his son asked the Lin family to take care of it for a few days.
The thirteenth master's subordinates also entered the mansion to find out that the thirteenth master did not say hello to others in advance. Immediately, he arched his hand with a sneering face: "Trouble Mrs. Lin." β
Jia Min was only shocked for a short time, then hurriedly ordered his men to clean up a room, and said with a smile: "No trouble, no trouble, Xu is the thirteenth master sued the master, he has been running outside for the thirteenth master's errand for the past few days, and he forgot to send someone back to spread the word." β
"Thank you, Madame, for your understanding." A man who looked like a steward bowed deeply, he knew what kind of character his master was. It is impossible for the Lin family to forget such a big thing, it is only possible that their master really didn't say it. I am used to messing around in the capital, and I regard Yangzhou as the second capital. This temper makes them really love and hate people at the moment.
"Miss, a distinguished guest has come to Jinling, and the elder brother Hongyun who came back to our house is here again." When the agarwood detective heard the news, he hurriedly redressed Daiyu and changed her clothes, and she was afraid that she would meet the guests for a while.
"Miss, Madame said that an old playmate has come to visit, please come and see him." Xingguo came to report the news with a gust of wind.
Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled, standing up, but she wondered in her heart, did the prince and grandson leave Jinling so easily? Forget it, the world is different from the previous world, the rules are different, and what's so strange.
Xingguo opened the curtain, Daiyu walked in, first squatted slightly to salute her mother, and then looked curiously at the seven or eight-year-old boy in front of her.
"You've seen it when you've been a child, and you've seen Qionghua together. There are also toys sent from the capital, we Daiyu must remember it. Jia Min asked with a grin.
Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled, her mother was afraid that she would not recognize her and embarrass the family. Hurriedly said to the prince, "I've seen Brother Hongyun, you wrote to me and my younger brother to tell us about flying kites." β
Hongyun's impression of this Sister Lin has long been blurred, and in the past few years, it was Ama who always nagged in his ear, asking him to remember to pick a gift for Sister Lin in Yangzhou and write to her to tell her about the fun things in Jinling. Although it was forced, but after carefully selecting gifts for two years, and writing dozens of letters, at this moment, I finally matched the three words of Sister Lin with the person in front of me, and I felt very kind.
"Sister, you sent me a very powerful kite, I like it very much." Hongyun's smile is getting bigger and bigger, Ama is right, Sister Lin is really good-looking.
Jingyu also took a nap and was hugged over, and saw that there was an older brother in the family, but he jumped over excitedly, hugged someone's arm, looked up on his little face, and smiled like a flower, "Brother, can you climb a tree?" β
In the first two days, he accidentally saw his family members climbing trees to help him pick fruits, as if he had suddenly opened the door to a new world, crying and clamoring to climb trees, and was ruthlessly suppressed by his mother and sister. At this time, when I saw Hongyun, I grabbed him as if I had found a life-saving straw.
"Of course, it's so hard to climb a tree." Hongyun is very proud.
"Brother, brother, let's go play." Jingyu's short fat body, with a look of admiration, how could Hongyun refuse.
Jia Min reluctantly let the three children go outside to play, and told his subordinates to watch closely and not to be in danger.
"Why didn't you say in advance that you were going to come to live, my mother could clean up the yard earlier." Daiyu saw that everyone was following behind, and asked him quietly.
It is said that the Thirteenth Master acts uninhibitedly, but he will not be so casual.
Hongyun pursed his lips, lowered his head and said unhappily: "Ama is like this, what can I do." "There are more ridiculous things, you haven't seen them before.
"However, it's also quite interesting, you didn't look at my mother, and her jaw was about to fall off, and it was probably the first time she had encountered this kind of thing." Daiyu thinks about it, in this world that stresses rules, it is really interesting to have such a person who does not follow the rules, and there is no way to take him.
Hongyun was in high spirits and said in surprise: "Do you also think it is interesting?" Actually, I think it's funny, but everyone says I'm a fool. β
Later, his voice became quieter and quieter, and he was no longer confident in himself.
"Of course it's true, you are you, why do you have to live according to other people's rules. It is said that the rules are set by the saints, but before the saints were born, everyone did not live the same life. When the saint was alive, no one took him seriously, but when he died, he became a saint. β
It's just that his rules are suitable for management, and the ruler can use it well, and if he uses it well, he is a saint.
"I'm Amma saying the same." Hongyun was a little stunned, it was okay for him Ama to say so, but this Sister Lin was three years younger than herself.
"I'm just saying that, you guys come all the way by boat, is it fun?" Daiyu saw that his face was strange and quickly changed the topic. While warning himself in the bottom of his heart, let's have a snack, these princes and grandsons are all human spirits.
"It was fun, but Ama said that he couldn't find out that Uncle Huang was on the boat, so ...... Ah, me, what did I just say. Hongyun was blindsided, and promised that Ama would not say it, why didn't people ask, but he said it himself.
Uncle Huang? The imperial uncle who can mix with the thirteenth master, nine out of nine are the fourth master. Daiyu pretended not to understand, "Are you Ama in charge of you?" It's a pity, I also took a boat when I came from Jinling, but I was too young and sick at the time, so I didn't see anything. β
"Actually, it's nothing to look at, it's just water."
Fortunately, Sister Lin didn't hear anything, otherwise Ama would definitely beat him.
Hongyun taught Jingyu to climb the tree, and Daiyu was watching from the side, with a smile on her face, but what she was thinking in her heart. only said that the thirteenth master was going to come to Yangzhou, but he didn't say that the fourth master was coming. What does the fourth master secretly want to do?
No matter what, tell your parents first, it's best to remind your father not to underestimate this fourth master.
Waiting for Hongyun to be settled, Lin Ruhai's long entourage had to report the news, and when he heard that Mrs. had already placed the person, he took a long breath, "The master is about to be scared to death by this master, so hurry up and send the little one over, but the little one thinks that the lady must have already arranged it properly, but it is just a vain question, so that he can reply to the master." β
"Knowing that your mouth is sweet, the new candy seeds, take a handful to sweeten your mouth." Suzi made fun and grabbed him a handful of candy seeds.
"Thank you, Sister Suzi." The long man took the candy and left.
saw Daiyu enter the house and threw herself into Jia Min's arms, "Mother, is it fun to take a boat?" β
"It's not fun to take a boat, it's dizzy." Jia Min touched her daughter's hair, "What, tell Brother Hongyun about the boat." β
"Well, Brother Hongyun said that he had been locked in the cabin by his Ama and was not allowed to go out, so he had to watch Ama play chess, and after watching all the way, he Ama lost all the way. Now his mind is full of black and white chess pieces, and he says that he never wants to look at the chessboard again in his life. β
"Poof, this little brother is really ...... with him" and so on, Jia Min's face was straight, and asked Daiyu to go back to the house and continue reading the unfinished book.
Then summoned the cold butler, "Pass these words to the master, don't let others hear them." β
"Yes." The cold steward smashed his mouth, his expression was dark, and Jia Min knew that he understood.
Lin Ruhai listened, "I know, go back and tell my wife, I understand." β
