Before leaving early the next morning, Jia Lian really mentioned to Mrs. Xing that he would record Yingchun in his name. I saw Jia Lian pulling the corners of her mouth and showing a smile, looking at Mrs. Xing and asking, "I wonder if my mother intends to record Sister Yingchun in her name?" Jia Lian knew that she was not very smart, and he didn't go around the bend with her.

Seeing Mrs. Xing looking at her suspiciously, Jia Lian hurriedly explained: "My son doesn't know when he will be able to return, I'm afraid that my mother will be lonely on weekdays." Remembering the Spring Festival in her name, she was justifiably called to the house to accompany her mother to relieve her boredom, even the old lady didn't want to say anything more. ”

Mrs. Xing saw Jia Lian leaving, and she was planning for herself, and her heart was very hot. His eyes were slightly red, and he said, "Where can I use her to relieve my boredom?" Isn't your cousin of the Lin family going to come into the house in a while? Speaking of this, he was very proud.

Mrs. Xing turned her head to look at Jia Lian, and when she saw that he had no expression, she reached out and patted Jia Lian's hand holding her arm and said, "I see that the second wife is very dissatisfied with your aunt, but she doesn't know how she treats your cousin of the Lin family, and she always doesn't like it." The old lady is old, how much can she take care of? Can't I help take care of it? ”

When Jia Lian heard this, he hurriedly flattered him, and then continued: "It's because Cousin Lin is coming, and my mother should keep Sister Yingchun in her name." Seeing that Xing was puzzled, he continued: "Yuan Chun has already entered the palace, and Xichun is from the East Mansion, and he is too young. "I said Yuanchun and mentioned cherishing spring. It's not to say that Tanchun, which has the same identity as Yingchun.

Jia Yu listened to his mother and mother muttering on the side, and he didn't care at first, but he was still somewhat satisfied in his heart. I didn't want to talk about Daiyu later, so I listened carefully, Jia Yu had seen a lot outside. Now that I'm on an errand in the Ministry of Rites, I quickly understood. directly said: "That's it, I'll talk to Brother Zhen when I go back." The genealogy has been changed. ”

Mrs. Xing didn't understand it originally, but now Jia Yu directly set the board, although she didn't say anything, her face was a little ugly, Jia Lian saw this, afraid that she would have a grudge against Yingchun, so she explained: "Mother, you think, Daiyu is the daughter of the third grade." Who in this house is qualified to enter her eyes? It is a cherished spring, and he is still young. ”

As soon as these words came out, Xing Shi completely understood. It's just a difference between a descendant and a descendant. couldn't help but smile and said to Jia Lian: "It's better for me to think about it, so that when your cousin Lin comes in the future, you can let Yingchun accompany me often." After speaking, he glanced at Jia Yu. Jia Yu is so angry! immediately blushed his neck and shouted, "Are you finished?" What are you doing here? Do you want to let the old man go hungry and go on an errand? ”

Xing was choked a lot, but he had to get up immediately and call the maid to put the meal on the table. As soon as the meal was served here, Aunt Fei came to welcome the Spring Festival and invite An. Xing Shi was stunned for a moment, not knowing what kind of wind was blowing. Yingchun was taken to the old lady's house since she was a child, and she was not close to herself, and she didn't come to ask for peace for so many years, and she just talked about her today. And here she came.

Jia Lian saw that Xing was stunned, so he raised his voice and said, "If you don't invite the girl in, what's the matter if you stand outside?" After speaking, he saw Xing's looking over, so he said to Xing's with a smile: "Yesterday, I thought that my son was going to leave for so long. I was afraid that my mother would be lonely at home, so I asked Yingchun to tell her last night, but she is also a sensible child. There was just no one to teach me before. ”

Mrs. Xing's face became better when she heard Jia Lian say this, and she patted Jia Lian's hand again. smiled at him: "I know that you are filial, rest assured that I know what to expect." I have all things. After speaking, he turned his head to look at Yingchun, who had just come in. His face was not as cold as before, and he asked with a smile, "Have you had breakfast?" If you haven't used it, use it with your brother and father. As he spoke, accompanied by Jia Lian, he walked to the side hall.

This is the 'rule' that Jia Lian raised after returning from Yangzhou, and he was reprimanded by Jia Yu at the beginning, but Jia Lian said confidently: "This is the case with my uncle's family." I didn't see anyone and said that my uncle's rules were bad. Jia Yu thought that Lin Ruhai was a family of scholars and Hanmo, so he didn't say anything anymore.

Yingchun didn't know the reason, she was very frightened, but Jia Lian smiled at her and said: "Hurry up, my father will go on an errand for a while, and there is no reason to let my father go hungry on an errand." After saying that, he couldn't help laughing, and even Xing also laughed. Only Jia Yu listened from the sidelines, glared angrily, and shouted: "I know that I have to work an errand, and I don't know how to move!" ”

Seeing that Jia Yu was annoyed, Jia Lian only chuckled, but Mrs. Xing didn't care, only Yingchun Cheng hurried over in fear and stood aside. I didn't know if I was sitting for a while? Still standing. Jia Lian didn't care about her, only helped Xing to sit down, and then turned to Jia Yu and sat down next to him.

Jia Yu was very dissatisfied when he saw that Yingchun was still standing on the side. Angry, he said, "What are you still doing?" Can't you ask someone to feed you? Jia Yu's words made Yingchun even more uneasy, and he only looked at Jia Lian. In the past ten years, she has really had little contact with this father. Still Xing couldn't look past it after all, so he asked Yingchun to sit down next to him, and this matter was over.

A family of four sat at the table at the same time, which reminded Jia Lian of his days in the Lin family, when the four of them sat together to eat. I don't know what happened to my uncle and cousin now, so I was very worried and stopped talking, just bowed my head to eat. Yingchun's heart was also very shaken, it was the first time she had eaten with her father, brother and grandmother for the first time, and she was both frightened and excited, and her eyes were red for a while, and she didn't know what to think.

Although Jia Lian didn't speak, he only lowered his head to concentrate on eating, but he still habitually gave Jia Yu and Mrs. Xing vegetables from time to time, and also gave Yingchun two chopsticks by the way. Although Yingchun felt strange and surprised to see this, he felt warm in his heart. couldn't help but learn from Jia Lian's example to Jia Lian, Mrs. Xing and Jia Lian picked up vegetables, and seeing that everyone was not disgusted, they put their minds at ease.

After the meal, Jia Yu changed into an official robe under the service of Mrs. Xing, and the family sent him out. Jia Lian was going to go out for a while, so he didn't stay long. Only before leaving, he said to Yingchun in front of Mrs. Xing: "There are few people in the courtyard in the east, and there are few things, but we are a family." On weekdays, my father was busy with errands and was not at home, and my mother was very lonely. Now that I'm going to go away, it's good for you to come and spend time with your mother when you have nothing to do, or to laugh and relieve boredom, or to learn something. ”

Mrs. Xing saw Jia Lian thinking about herself when she was leaving. I was afraid that I would be lonely at home, and I was very moved. Seeing that Jia Lian regretted letting him go to Yangzhou for a while, and thought of going there for so many years. I am even more reluctant in my heart. Yingchun knew that this was Jia Lian making excuses to pave the way for himself, and he was also grateful in his heart. So they both sent Jia Lian out of the hospital, and they were still reluctant. He didn't turn back until he couldn't see the figure.

The salute has already been placed, and even the personnel have been arranged. Mama Zhao is old, and the two sons have reached the age of marriage, so they no longer follow Jia Lian out, and now they are still Zhao'er, Xing'er, and Long'er and Qing'er are added outside. There was only Hongxiu in the room, just to take care of some food and clothing.

I don't know when I will return. I always have to kowtow to Mrs. Jia before I can set off. Out of the east courtyard, Jia Lian went to Mrs. Jia's house. As soon as he arrived in Mrs. Jia's courtyard, he collided with Jia Zheng. Jia Zheng couldn't help but instruct Jia Lian to say a few words: "Your aunt is gone, since you go to the funeral, you can listen to your uncle's arrangement." Don't get into trouble with your uncle! Seeing that Jia Lian nodded very much in response before turning around and leaving.

Jia Lian didn't think so, but he didn't care about him in general, he just nodded his head in response to everything, and he didn't have to pay attention to it or refute it. Jia Lian waited for Jia Zheng to leave before entering the old lady's house, and listened to the old lady's words to tell Daiyu to go to Beijing, before getting up to say goodbye and leave.

Zhang Xin has been waiting for a long time. Seeing Jia Lian coming out, he hurriedly went out. After going out, I found that Jia Lian was only followed by one Xing'er, and I was very surprised. Especially Xing'er only has a small burden on her body, and there is nothing else.

I couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "It's been a long time." Master Cousin can't compare to us, how can he bring this kind of luggage? Even if there are still some old things used by the young master at home, there is no need to bring much luggage. Why didn't this Zhao'er come with it? ”

Jia Lian didn't have time to answer when he heard it, but Xing'er smiled and said, "Brother Zhang is afraid that he doesn't know." The master was afraid that the trip would be delayed on the road, so he asked Zhao'er to lead everyone. I took the boat with my luggage. This trip is to prepare to participate in the autumn over there before returning, with more things, let's play the horse and go to Yangzhou early. ”

After listening to Xing'er's words, Zhang Xin looked at Jia Lian with a different look, but he didn't say much, and only followed Jia Lian out of the city. Zhang Xin looked at himself differently, Jia Lian knew it, but he didn't say anything, after all, he was really worried about his uncle and cousin.

Along the way, the three of them rode horses and galloped, and they did not deliberately look for a post inn, they stopped when it was dark and walked at dawn. When you meet the inn, there is a post station to live in the inn, if there is none, then you can go anywhere for one night, it is at this speed, it is about the same as when Zhang Xin came.

Fortunately, Zhang Xin had some experience when he came, and almost all of them met the inn along the way. didn't let Jia Lian live in the wild twice, only stayed in the broken temple for one night, and Zhang Xin and Xing's children also protected Jia Lian in the middle to rest. Staying overnight at the foot of the barren slope, Zhang Xin even surrounded the horses outside, and he and Xing'er took turns to keep vigil for Jia Lian to rest.

Under the care of Zhang Xin all the way, Jia Lian finally rushed to Yangzhou on the first day of Jia Min Siqi. At this time, standing outside the city gate, Jia Lian was very emotional, he was the uncle who said goodbye here more than half a year ago. At that time, I didn't know when we could see each other, and I was very reluctant to give up, but I never thought that the world would be unpredictable, and we would meet again so soon. I just don't know what this meeting will be like.

Jia Lian stood outside the city and sighed, but he didn't know that someone had entered Yangzhou City two days before him, and he was in Lin Ruhai's mansion at this time. If you want to say that this person Jia Lian also knows, it is the Jinling old relatives of the Jia family and the head of the Zhen family, Zhen Yingjia.

At this time, Zhen Yingjia was sitting in the main hall of Lin Ruhai's mansion, holding a fine porcelain tea cup from Ruyao, letting the fragrance of tea linger but not drinking. only stared at Lin Ruhai with his eyes, but Lin Ruhai frowned, looking down at the tea cup in his hand, and he didn't care about the temptation of tea.

It was not once or twice that the prince sent people to try to win him over, but Lin Ruhai never thought that Zhen Yingjia would come to him in person for this. Now that Zhen Yingjia has spoken bluntly, he can't help but respond.

After thinking for a while, Fang said: "His Royal Highness is the prince, he is the choice of the Holy One, and he is the queen of the Yuan, and the Holy One has cultivated it for many years. The lower officials are also very respectful, but they don't know how to follow their words now? Zhen Yingjia saw that Lin Ruhai shirked and refused to accept, and was very unhappy in his heart.

At this time, he didn't tear his face with Lin Ruhai and said: "It's good that you, Lin Ruhai, know that His Royal Highness is the prince!" After speaking, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "In the future, how will Your Highness forget the exploits of the sea?" Lin Ruhai smiled when he heard this: "I still need good words from adults." Although Lin Ruhai never refused, he never said a word of loyalty.

Zhen Yingjia was irritable: "What's the use of good words?" His Highness is not a lord of cronyism! It also depends on how Ruhai acts. Lin Ruhai also nodded with a serious expression and said: "The lower officials are favored by the saints, and the two Huai salt ministers are appointed, and the **** dare not ignore them, although they are thin, they also know the patriotic meaning of the loyal monarch." ”

In this way, Zhen Yingjia understands that it is impossible for Lin Ruhai to inherit it today. Thinking about Lin Ruhai's words again, I guessed that as long as His Royal Highness was still the prince, he Lin Ruhai would not dare to disobey His Highness's wishes, so that's it! (To be continued.) )
