Daiyu was thinking about Jia's mother's letter in her heart, and she has been a little reluctant since then, Wang Xifeng was beside her with a big belly, and naturally saw her strangeness. I thought about it, but I didn't ask. And Daiyu thought that no matter what, Lin Ruhai would always have to ask her for explanation, so she also pressed the troubles in her heart.

After everyone dispersed, as Daiyu expected, Lin Ruhai sent someone to call her to the study to talk. Daiyu changed out of the solemn clothes, only wearing a homely light blue dark blue coat, and the hairpin ring at one end was also removed, and only a green jade hairpin was placed obliquely on the green silk. I came to the study to see Lin Ruhai.

I didn't want to see Jia Lian already sitting on a chair making tea as soon as I arrived at the door, while Lin Ruhai was stunned behind the desk with the letter. Daiyu couldn't help but stop, who knew that Jia Lian saw her at a glance, and said with a smile: "Uncle has been waiting for my sister for a while, why didn't he come in since he came?" ”

Jia Lian's words made Lin Ruhai come back to his senses, and when he looked up and saw Daiyu standing by the door, he smiled and beckoned, "Yu'er doesn't come in soon?" Where can I eat Lian'er's tea? Come and make a pot of tea for your father. After hearing this, Jia Lian said dissatisfiedly: "Uncle hasn't eaten my tea yet, how do you know that you can't eat it?" ”

Daiyu said with a smile as she entered the door: "Father just wants to work me to make tea, why make excuses?" If you say it directly to Yu'er, is it possible that Yu'er can still make tea for you? After speaking, he didn't forget to glance at Lin Ruhai with disgust.

Lin Ruhai saw that Daiyu was more and more lively than in the past, and saw that their brother and sister were very harmonious when they sang and harmonized, and he couldn't help but be very happy. He smiled and said: "Yes, yes, it's my father's fault, so I won't make it to you!" Come in and make tea for your father. ”

When Jia Lian heard Lin Ruhai say this, he felt bad, and immediately stood up, bowed down and said, "Complaining that Lian'er has poor craftsmanship and is not in harmony with her uncle." How can it be said that it is my uncle's fault? Jia Lian was like this, which made Lin Ruhai stunned, and Daiyu couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Hearing Daiyu smile, Lin Ruhai came back to his senses and laughed. Jia Lianfang came to his senses. Lin Ruhai was just joking with Daiyu. Then he also blushed and laughed. In this way, the previous dull atmosphere has dissipated a lot.

Daiyu re-boiled water for Lin Ruhai to make tea. On the other hand, he asked, "I don't know if my father called Yu'er to come?" ”

Hearing Daiyu's question, Lin Ruhai lost his smile, and took the letter and looked at it a few times before saying, "Before your mother went, your grandmother wrote to say that she wanted to take you to Beijing to be raised." At that time, you said that you would keep filial piety for your mother. went back to Gusu alone. Now you have already made filial piety. Your grandmother shouldn't have started with her heart. I'm still going to take you to Beijing. ”

Jia Lian obviously didn't know about this before, but when he heard it, he was stunned and asked, "When did this happen?" How have I not heard of it? Even Feng'er hasn't mentioned it in the past two months! Seeing Jia Lian's face surprised. Lin Ruhai also raised the letter in his hand and said, "The person I just sent today sent a letter to tell me." ”

Jia Lian was even more surprised at this time, and asked puzzledly: "Could it be that Lai Da didn't come to send a congratulatory gift to his sister, but to send a letter for the old lady?" Lin Ruhai frowned and thought for a while before saying: "You can't say that, it's true that the old lady gave Yu'er a gift gift, and the thing has been handed over to your sister, but this letter is for me." ”

After Lin Ruhai finished speaking, he looked at Daiyu with complicated eyes. Daiyu didn't know what to do, and was busy making tea for Lin Ruhai with her head down. When the tea was brewed and placed in Lin Ruhai's hand, Daiyu asked, "I don't know what my grandmother said in her heart?" How did the father decide? Lin Ruhai saw that Daiyu's eyes were calm and her tone was calm, and she was very satisfied.

looked at Daiyu for a while and said: "For my father, I know that Yu'er is a smart person, and she is full of poetry and books, so you don't need to talk about many things for your father, and you can understand it when you think about it." And now the situation is getting worse and worse. Speaking of this, Lin Ruhai held the tea that Daiyu brewed for him in his hand, and lowered his head as if he was hesitating about something.

After a while, Lin Ruhai looked up at Daiyu, and his eyes were very determined. Just looking at Lin Ruhai's gaze, Daiyu felt that her heart couldn't help sinking. But he didn't say anything, just waiting for Lin Ruhai to say it. Seeing this, Lin Ruhai also sighed: "Yu'er is becoming more and more calm and atmospheric. After speaking, a faint smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.

Gently picked up the teacup and blew the foam on his face, but Lin Ruhai smelled it, and didn't drink the tea, so he continued: "For my father, I think that she is your grandmother in the end, and Yu'er also needs to be raised by a female elder." And the situation in Beijing and Central China must be much better than that in Jiangnan. ”

Speaking of this, Daiyu was no longer silent, only nodded lightly and said, "Father's meaning Yu'er understands." There are only three things I hope my father will make clear to Yu'er. Hearing Daiyu say this, Lin Ruhai also nodded and said: "Our father and daughter must know everything and say everything, Yu'er has some doubts in her heart, although she is a father." ”

Daiyu was not ambiguous, and took a sip of tea before looking at Lin Ruhai and said: "First, now that I see that the New Year is approaching, I don't think I will go to Beijing during the New Year. Therefore, Yu'er wanted to ask her father when she planned to let Yu'er leave for Beijing. ”

Daiyu's words were rational and restrained, and they were well organized. Lin Ruhai looked at Daiyu, whose face was flat but her eyes were slightly red, and she was also very uncomfortable. Without waiting for Lin Ruhai to speak, Jia Lian said: "Since my sister is going to Beijing, I naturally have to escort her all the way, not to mention that the canal is frozen now and it is difficult to sail, even if Feng'er sees that she will reach the delivery period, I am afraid that it will be difficult to go on the road." ”

Jia Lian also looked at Lin Ruhai after speaking, Lin Ruhai had to sigh when he saw this: "In this case, after Lian's daughter-in-law gives birth, she will take care of her for three months before leaving, and you will all go back together, I am also a lot relieved that Lian'er is taking care of Yu'er in the capital." Seeing that Daiyu and Jia Lian both nodded, Lin Ruhai asked again: "Since there are three, let's say it together." ”

Daiyu thought for a while before saying: "When I go back to the salt government, it is usually once a year, that is, the Jinling Zhen family has won the holy grace, and there is a mother in the palace for only three years, and now my father has been patrolling the salt imperial history for three years." I don't know when I will return to Beijing to report on my work? ”

Lin Ruhai didn't expect Daiyu to ask this, so he couldn't help frowning and said: "It stands to reason that at most there should be a will in Jingzhong after the year, but now my father has not received the news." I'm afraid I'm going to have to take office for another year. Don't say this, Jia Lian was surprised when he heard this, even Lin Ruhai himself was very uncertain. And Daiyu's heart has sunk to the bottom.

I don't know why Daiyu suddenly remembered the words of the abbot of Hanshan Temple: Origin and death are cause and effect, and there is no need to force anything. At this time, there was a trace of terror in Lin Ruhai's eyes. Jia Lian only looked at Lin Ruhai and didn't notice it, but Lin Ruhai kept staring at Daiyu, how could he miss that trace of horror? I couldn't help but sigh secretly, Yu'er was too smart in the end.

Daiyu quickly regained her thoughts, and then said, "That's the case. That is, my father will be able to report to Beijing next year. But? Lin Ruhai saw that Daiyu was so obsessed with this, and didn't want her to be too disappointed, so he could only nod firmly and said, "It should be so!" In fact, he was not sure at all.

Lin Ruhai didn't know, in fact, Daiyu didn't have a bottom in her heart. Especially after Lin Ruhai said the words 'should be so'. The uneasiness in my heart spread dramatically. But at this time, she couldn't dwell on this. Then he changed the topic and said: "Since we have to wait for our little nephew to leave for the north in 100 days, it will be at the end of April and early May next year at the earliest." ”

Before Lin Ruhai could react, Jia Lian said, "That's very good!" When she turned around, her sister accompanied Feng'er to raise a baby in Gusu. I can just accompany my uncle back to Yangzhou to deal with some things, one is to help my uncle, and the other is to gain some knowledge and experience some things. ”

After hearing this, Daiyu nodded and said, "Then let's do so." Brother, don't worry, hand over your sister-in-law to me, I will take care of my sister-in-law and nephew. Lin Ruhai saw that the brother and sister had already made up their minds in a few words, and they didn't seem to need to discuss with him anymore, so he had to shake his head and smile after being stunned for a while.

He also figured it out, at this time, this matter can only be like this, he can't let Daiyu go to Beijing alone, let alone let Lian's daughter-in-law take the risk to set off, now I heard that it's been about eight months! After experiencing Jia Min's childbirth and death, Lin Ruhai now thinks that Wang Xifeng will give birth in his mansion, and he has a creepy feeling.

Seeing this, Lin Ruhai did not refute this, and Daiyu said: "My father is only half a year later than Yu'er and will go to Beijing to report on his work, so why don't I send someone to repair the old house in Beijing, and there must be a place to stay after I go back, right?" I don't know if my father was left in Beijing to serve? After Daiyu finished speaking, she looked at Lin Ruhai with those watery eyes.

Lin Ruhai was amused in his heart, and he also knew what Daiyu meant, but he was not in a hurry to nod and said: "This matter is also feasible for my father and others to take over the will and do it for others." There's no need to rush it. When Daiyu heard this, she frowned and said, "Yu'er is the daughter of the Lin family, why has she been living in her grandmother's house?" ”

Seeing Daiyu's words, Lin Ruhai asked: "Since your grandmother raised you, how can you be educated if you don't live in your grandmother's house?" Hearing this, Jia Lian raised her eyebrows and looked at Daiyu in disbelief and asked, "Could it be that my sister plans to stand on her own after going to Beijing?" ”

Daiyu secretly said in her heart under the forced gaze of Jia Lian and Lin Ruhai: I originally thought so! But now it seems that it will not be possible. In fact, Lin Ruhai did not mean to refuse completely, he thought that he would go to Beijing sooner or later, the Lin family had their own mansion to live in Beijing, and if Daiyu's life in Jia's house was not smooth, it was okay to go home and stay for a few days.

I'm afraid Ji Yun will also have to go back to the capital at that time, after all, Yu'er is Huang Jiyun's only student, and he can't go to Jiafu to see students as a teacher, this is the biggest irregularity! Therefore, Lin Ruhai was also a little hesitant in his heart.

On the one hand, Lin Ruhai was afraid that Daiyu would be willful, and after repairing the mansion, he lived in his own house and no longer went to Jia's house, Jia's mother was Daiyu's grandmother after all, and Jia's family was Daiyu's mother's family, how could she cut off contact because of Jia Min's death?

Moreover, Daiyu has always been opposed to the matter of going to Beijing, and she is trying to find a reason to refuse, Lin Ruhai doesn't know if it's because Daiyu is estranged from the Jia family or reluctant to herself, and thinks that Jia Lian and his daughter-in-law Wang Xifeng are also members of the Jia family, but Daiyu treats them very sincerely and friendly. Therefore, he firmly believed that Daiyu was reluctant to give up herself.

Lin Ruhai was moved, and said: "Yu'er has to grow up in the end, this is not possible without the upbringing of female parents, many things Yu'er has to study hard with your grandmother, you see your mother, it was your grandmother who raised herself." ”

What Lin Ruhai said, Daiyu was very disappreciative in her heart, but since Lin Ruhai had already said it, she couldn't refute it, and now she could only think about how to repair the mansion. Daiyu thought for a while and said, "Does Yu'er still study with her master when she returns to Beijing?" Did the master also go to his grandmother's house to teach Yu'er? ”

After speaking, Daiyu pretended to take a sip of tea unintentionally and said: "Aunt Luo will definitely follow Yu'er at that time, I wonder if Aunt Luo will also live with Yu'er at her grandmother's house?" ”

Well, when Lin Ruhai thought of Huang Jiyun, he was a little shaken in his heart and couldn't figure it out. It's just that I haven't seen him for a few years, but I have forgotten Aunt Luo completely! At this time, Daiyu mentioned it, and he remembered that Daiyu still had a master who was going to follow Daiyu. Then he frowned and said, "In that case, then do what Yu'er said." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Ruhai saw the joy in Daiyu's eyes, so he hurriedly said, "Just a little!" Yu'er has to agree to be a father. After speaking, Lin Ruhai also learned from Daiyu, and he picked up the teacup very indifferently, took a sip and put it in his mouth, and suddenly felt that his teeth and cheeks were fragrant. I couldn't help but squint, and the corners of my mouth also brought a smile. (To be continued.) )
