When Jia Lian freshened up, he came to Mrs. Xing's courtyard, and as soon as he entered the courtyard gate, he saw Jia Yu lying in a rocking chair with his eyes closed, holding a purple sand teapot in his hand, and a young maid standing behind him, kneading her shoulders. Jia Yu seems to be pretending to sleep, and he is very free. But as soon as Jia Lian stepped into the courtyard, Jia Yu had already opened his eyes.

Jia Lian quickly took two steps forward, bowed down and saluted Jia Yu, "My son has seen my father." Mrs. Xing heard Jia Lian's voice in the house, and immediately opened the curtain and walked out, and saw Jia Lian wearing a clean robe, wearing a pearl and silver belt, and a Confucian hat on his head, gentle and elegant. A smile spread across Mrs. Xing's face.

Without waiting for Jia Lian to salute, Mrs. Xing grabbed Jia Lian and asked repeatedly, "Why did it take so long to come back?" Have you ever eaten yet? Knowing that Jia Lian had already freshened up, he asked again, "Do you want to rest for a while?" Even if you get home, it's not bad. Jia Lian still smiled and saluted, and replied one by one, telling Mrs. Xing that she was not tired.

Seeing that Mrs. Xing was talking non-stop, Jia Yu couldn't help frowning and reprimanded: "Why do you have to say so much?" After speaking, he didn't look at Mrs. Xing's paused, and said to Jia Lian: "Come with me to the study to talk." With that, he got up and walked out. The young maid also used the teapot to hold the teapot that Jia Yu had just put down.

Jia Lian frowned when he saw this, looked at Mrs. Xing, and then at the back of the maid. I also felt that something was wrong in my heart, and seeing Mrs. Xing's gloomy face, Jia Lian suddenly felt very sorry in her heart.

After thinking about it, Jia Lian said to Mrs. Xing: "Lian'er knows that her mother has suffered a lot of grievances, and her father is just like this, and her mother doesn't have to be sad. Now my father calls me, but I can't help but go. Wait for Lian'er to come back and make amends to her mother on behalf of her father. After a pause, he saw that Xing's face was more relaxed, but he didn't speak.

Jia Lian knew that she didn't want to talk about Jia Yu anymore. Then he continued: "Lian'er has been away from home for a long time, and Lao's mother **** is worried. I am very grateful. This time, Lian'er brought a lot of Jiangnan things to her mother and sister, although it was not worth anything, but it was Lian'er's heart, and she should be regarded as an apology for Lao's mother's worries, and she would send it to her mother later. ”

Jia Lian's words made Mrs. Xing feel her whole heart warm again, so she nodded with a smile: "Isn't it right for a mother to care about her son?" There's going to be an apology? Go for it. Don't keep the master waiting. Be careful he beats you. After speaking, he also sighed.

Returning from the study, Jia Lian's mind can be described as turning over the river and the sea, tossing and turning for half a night, he finally got up and wrote a letter to Yangzhou, and after writing, he remembered that he had not reported safety to Daiyu, so he wrote a single letter to Daiyu, thinking of what Daiyu said before leaving, looking at Mrs. Xing's demeanor today, Jia Lian seemed to have an understanding.

When he came back, Jia Lian naturally still had to go to see the Seventh Prince and the Fourth Prince, after all, the errand arranged by the Holy Lord for Jia Lian at the beginning. Jia Lian really couldn't finish it, so he went to Yangzhou for the funeral, and the two princes shared a lot of burden for Jia Lian. So early the next morning, Jia Lian handed over the greetings to the two princes' mansions.

The two princes are busy people. But when I returned home in the evening, I was quite happy to see Jia Lian's post. Especially the fourth prince, he felt that he had not mistaken Jia Lian, a kid, and he was quite affectionate. The Seventh Prince didn't have any ideas. But he also asked people to post a reply to Jia Lian and asked Jia Lian to come over the next afternoon.

Jia Lian of the Four Princes' Mansion didn't make it in the end. But following Daiyu's suggestion to bring back the Jiangnan specialties, the fourth prince didn't say anything and accepted it. The seventh prince returned to the house early after the next day. After asking the steward, Jia Lian had already arrived. The Seventh Prince laughed and met Jia Lian in the garden.

Jia Lian was a little flattered for a while, but his face was as immobile as a mountain. chatted with the Seventh Prince, from the customs and customs of Jiangnan, and finally to the current situation in Jiangnan, as well as the crisis faced by Lin Ruhai, including Jia Min's death.

The Seventh Prince was in a happy mood and was very interested in chatting with him about the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River at first, but gradually the expression on his face became serious, and in the end, he could be described as 'gloomy', and asked in a cold voice: "Are these what you want to tell this king, or ...... Lin Ruhai, let you say that? ”

Jia Lian's face turned pale with fright, the sweat on his forehead slipped down at some point, and he knelt on the ground and replied: "Back to the prince's words, these are what Jia Lian saw and felt with his own eyes, and no one asked Jia Lian to say anything." The Seventh Prince didn't say anything, and he didn't let go, he just looked at Jia Lian coldly, not knowing what he was thinking.

After another stick of incense, Jia Lian's vest was already soaked, remembering that Lin Ruhai used to say 'accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger', and now although this is not the emperor, it also makes Jia Lian feel like a 'accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger'. I couldn't help but feel annoyed in my heart, but today I forgot what Lin Ruhai taught me to be cautious in my words and deeds.

The Seventh Prince didn't know what to think, and seeing that Jia Lian's expression had eased a lot, he called out, and after asking a few more words, he instructed: "Today's words, I don't want to hear them in other places." Although his tone was gentle, his eyes were extremely sharp, and Jia Lian didn't dare to hesitate and nodded immediately. Seeing that Jia Lian responded, the Seventh Prince picked up the tea to ease the atmosphere and let Jia Lian go back.

Jia Lian returned to the mansion and recalled the meeting with the Seventh Prince today, and then wrote a letter to Lin Ruhai. One is that he has not sent a letter to Lin Ruhai to report his safety when he returns to the capital, for fear that he will remember it, and second, because of today's events, Jia Lian couldn't think through it for a while, so he talked about today's events in the letter, hoping that Lin Ruhai would solve his doubts.

Jia Lian never thought that this letter would reach the hands of the fourth prince. Because of today's events, the seventh prince said to the fourth prince after he left. The fourth prince's face was also cold, and he made people look at Jia Lian. And this letter was intercepted by the people of the four princes without accident.

Seeing Jia Lian's panicked words in the letter, as well as his great apologies for Lin Ruhai, the fourth prince didn't say anything, but his eyes were much warmer, and even the corners of his mouth pulled out an invisible smile. In the eyes of the four princes, this Jia Lian still has a bit of innocence in the end.

Before Jia Lian returned to Beijing, many things were already being prepared. Because the object is her own niece and daughter, Mrs. Wang does not do anything, and all kinds of wedding gifts are packed up. Now that Jia Lian is back, he is just cleaning up the house and rushing to make new clothes. originally thought that everything was in order, but who knew that Jia Lian raised objections at this time.

On this day, everyone in the second room of the big house gathered in Jia's mother's room, and the atmosphere was a rare harmony. I saw Jia Lian walking up to Jia's mother and bowing to the end, but he didn't speak. For a while, the person who was originally laughing in Jia's mother's room stopped moving. The sudden silence made everyone feel that the atmosphere was very oppressive.

Jia Mu also restrained the smile on her face and looked at Jia Lian. There was a lot of dissatisfaction in his eyes, and he asked in a cold voice, "What is this doing?" Jia Lian is not a fake. only replied in a deep voice: "Since the old lady is the main Lian'er to marry the niece of the second aunt's mother, Lian'er has nothing to say." It's just that the courtyard Lian'er arranged by the second aunt is difficult to obey. Let the old lady call the shots. ”

Not to mention Mrs. Jia, even Jia Yu didn't expect Jia Lian to say this, but Mrs. Xing understood it in her heart, but she didn't show it. Old Mrs. Jia's face became more and more ugly and asked, "What's wrong with the courtyard that your aunt arranged for you?" After speaking, he glared at Mrs. Wang out of the corner of his eye.

As soon as Mrs. Wang heard Jia Lian talk about the courtyard, her eyes were cold, and she sneered in her heart, but she didn't have a seizure, she only looked down at the bowl in her hand. Jia Lian also sneered in his heart, thinking that since you asked. I'm not afraid to say, is it possible that everything will go along with your second wife?

Jia Lian made up her mind in her heart, and bowed to Mrs. Jia again: "Auntie picked the courtyard behind the road leading to the old lady's courtyard for Lian'er, which was also a good intention, thinking that Lian'er would be able to get close to her grandmother often in the future." But Lian'er is newly married, and the Yongdao people are troubled and inconvenient. ”

After speaking, he glanced at the second wife with squinted eyes, and continued: "And grandmother has many sisters here, and there are female relatives with foreign surnames, and Lian'er is a man. In the end, it's not easy to intersperse. Moreover, this courtyard is too far away from the courtyard where her parents are, and it will be inconvenient for the girls of the Wang family to enter the door every day in the future. "Everyone naturally knows that the female family with the surname is nothing more than the Xue family.

Speaking of this, the corners of Jia Lian's mouth pulled out a trace of arc that seemed to be a smile but not a smile. continued: "Auntie is distressed and distressed for your niece, who is too far away from her parents, and it is not beautiful for her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to be discordant in the future." In the future, what will happen to our husband and wife? Doesn't it make Miss Wang resentful of her aunt? ”

Hearing this, Jia Yu also served tea to hide his smile. Mrs. Xing had already bowed her head. Old Mrs. Jia knew that it was wrong when she heard that it was on the side of the road, and now Jia Lian is even more naked threat. This. It's not like getting married, I'm afraid I'm going to make a feud accidentally! Then he glared at Mrs. Wang, who had a gloomy face, but asked Jia Lian, "Where do you want to choose?" ”

Jia Lian seemed to have thought about this problem for a long time, and still respectfully saluted Jia's mother before replying: "Originally, the pear fragrance garden was very good, and it only needed to open another door next to it to connect to the east yard, and it was cheap for the Dao parents, but now since the relatives live, they had to find another place." ”

As soon as Mrs. Wang heard this, her face became even more gloomy, but she didn't speak, wanting to see what Jia Lian was paying attention to, but Jia Lian really didn't plan to make a detour, and then said: "Although there are many houses in the house, but in the end, the girl from the Wang family entered the door. Even if there is a fate, it is not easy to wronged her. ”

Mrs. Jia also felt embarrassed when she heard this, could it be that the one in our family has a fate? But it's not easy to say anything, Jia Lian's words have been said very vaguely, he is the grandson of the long house in this mansion, although Mrs. Jia doesn't like it in her heart, but it's not easy to say it clearly, but she also has a gloomy face, and her eyes fly towards Jia Lian like a knife.

Jia Lian has also been in officialdom for a while, and he has seen a lot of various characters with Lin Ruhai, and he is not afraid. Suddenly straightened up and said: "Lian'er looks at the garden is good, build a new yard over there, and rely on her parents to get close." ”

He chose the place where the Grand View Garden would be built in the future in the original book, and Ruo Daiyu would definitely sigh at his butterfly effect again. Jia Lian didn't know, he just wanted Wang Xifeng to stay away from Mrs. Wang and get closer to his own house after entering the door. Then he continued: "There is also an entrance gate in the eastern courtyard, and it is convenient for me to go in and out with my father on an errand in the future. ”

These words are very heart-wrenching, Jia's mother was about to have a seizure, but Jia Zheng, who rarely spoke, said seriously: "I look good, Lian'er is a filial person." As soon as these words came out, not to mention Jia Lian, even Jia Yu also laughed secretly in his heart, but Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Jia were so angry that they couldn't speak for a while. The matter had to be settled because of Jia Zheng's words.

Jiafu built a new yard, where can it be hidden? Besides, those minions in Jiafu are not broken-mouthed? Soon Wang Xifeng also learned the news from Wang Ren, and knew that Jia Lian was fighting for a new yard for himself, and he was very happy in his heart.

She had seen Jia Lian when she was a child, and she was carved in pink and jade, and now she can treat herself like this, Wang Xifeng is very happy in her heart. didn't say that, only pouted lightly and said: "It's just that I want to marry more furniture and things, which shows that he is shallow and greedy." ”

After speaking, he ignored Wang Ren, and turned around and left. Leaving the stunned Wang Ren there, he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time. Mrs. Wang Ziteng only laughed and scolded when she found out: "It's a tricky girl." "Say no more.

In the blink of an eye, it was November 28, which was the day when the Jia family asked the Wang family to send gifts. On this day, Jia Lian changed into new clothes early in the morning under Hongxiu's service, a crimson jacquard gown, a red gold treasure wipe forehead, an eight-treasure purple gold crown, dark green sprinkling pants, Jia Lian couldn't help frowning and asked suspiciously: "Who sent this?" ”

Hongxiu knew that he had preferred plain colors in the Lin family for a few years, so he smiled and said: "Mrs. said that the big day is not good and too plain, so I specially prepared it." Jia Lian nodded helplessly, changed into a long shirt, tied up his forehead, but put away the purple and gold crown for Hongxiu, and even the dark green flowered pants were thrown aside.

Jia Lian then went to Jia Lian's courtyard and had breakfast with Jia Yu, Mrs. Xing, and Yingchun, and Mrs. Xing naturally saw that Jia Lian was not wearing a purple gold crown, so she asked, "Why don't you wear that eight-treasure purple gold crown?" It took a lot of effort for me to get it. After hearing this, Jia Lian smiled and said, "Where do you need to wear such an object?" That's good now. ”

Mrs. Xing saw that Jia Lian said that it was already very good, and she thought that Jia Lian was often outside, so she knew better than herself, so she didn't say anything, but she thought in her heart, didn't Baoyu often go out with a purple and gold crown? But it is only hidden in the bottom of my heart.

After eating breakfast, Jia Lian naturally needed to go to Mrs. Jia's house again to ask for peace, so that she could follow the two Quanfu ladies arranged by Mrs. Wang and go out with all kinds of things prepared by Mrs. Wang. So Jia Lian didn't delay, and went to ask for peace early. Mrs. Jia naturally wanted to give a few words, but she was also afraid that she would miss the time, so she quickly sent him out.

The previous asking for names, Najib, fixed appointments, and gifts have also been successfully completed, and now the invitation is just a formality, although it is important, it has not made any waves. Wang Ziteng was not at home, so Wang Ren received Jia Lian. Although Wang Ren does not learn and has no skills, he has also seen the world in the end, and there is nothing wrong with things. The date of the wedding has also been set.

Soon entered the month of Layue, the eighteenth day of the month of the month is a good day for Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng, Wang Ziteng is only such a girl, she is more loved by Wang Ziteng and his wife than her brother Wang Renlisuo when she is young, and now she is going to get married, of course, she wants to buy everything for her, and she is afraid of wronging her.

On the sixteenth day of the lunar month, the king's family wore makeup, not to mention the old relatives and friends, but the four kings and eight princes also sent more gifts to add makeup. In the courtyard, it is full of paved clothes, and it is easy to imagine the scene of ten miles of red makeup. It's just that no one thought that the Lin family, who had moved out of the capital for many years and had not returned, would also travel thousands of miles to give makeup gifts. (To be continued.) )
