Chapter 007: Brother and Sister Lin, who lost their kindness, entered Beijing
"Feng Ju, how is my brother today?" Daiyu fell seriously ill after Lin Ruhai's death, and just neatly, she followed her brother on the boat to the capital. Soon after getting on the ship, Lin Jue, who had been supporting the arrangement of affairs, also fell ill.
Lin Jue has always been in good health, but he suddenly fell ill, and he was really sick, and he scared Daiyu and the subordinates of the Lin Mansion enough. Fortunately, Master Luo followed them on the boat because he was not worried about their brother and sister, otherwise he didn't know what to do.
"Back to the eldest girl, the uncle is much better today, and when I got up in the morning, I drank a bowl of white porridge and ate a few pieces of sweet and sour white lotus, and then I drank the medicine and rested."
Daiyu lifted the curtain and took a look, and saw that Lin Jue's face was no longer as pale as before, so she was relieved. instructed Feng Ju to say: "The further you go to the north, the colder it gets, these days when you look at the sky, put the silver carbon on at night, so as not to freeze my brother." ”
"It's ready early in the morning," Feng Ju said with a smile, "Before getting on the boat, the uncle said, I'm afraid that the big girl is cold, and the best carbon should be prepared." The slave maid has been handed over to Mama Fang, if it is not enough, the girl will inform the slave maid, and the slave and maid will send it to you. ”
Daiyu's eyes were slightly red, at that time, her father was newly mourned, and the house was in a hurry, and her brother was even more busy going in and out, and he was still thinking about her.
Feng Ju was startled, "What's wrong with the girl?" It's all to blame on the slave maid, I wanted to comfort the girl, but I didn't want to make the girl cry. ”
Daiyu smiled: "What is wrong with you, if you don't say that I don't know that my brother has worked so hard, Daiyu can't help my brother and pay it back, but now I still have to take care of my brother from time to time, I feel really guilty in my heart." ”
"Girl, don't say that, so that the uncle hears it, maybe how sad it will be. You are the younger sister of the uncle's relatives, and the uncle should not take care of you. If you don't want the uncle to take care of you, the uncle will be sad. ”
"Feng Ju is right, if my sister is polite to me, she will see the outside." Lin Jue didn't know when he woke up, lifted the curtain, leaned on the bed and looked at Daiyu with a smile.
Feng Ju hurriedly hung up the curtain and put on Lin Jue's coat.
Daiyu blushed and smiled, "Wake up my brother." ”
"It's okay, I can't sleep either, you just happened to be here, talk to me."
Daiyu smiled and responded.
Feng Ju led Daiyu out of the house, and when Lin Jue was dressed neatly, she invited Daiyu into the house to sit again.
Lin Jue handed the plate on the table to Daiyu, "Try this snack, it was made by Feng Ju himself, see if it suits your taste." ”
Daiyu picked up a piece of dim sum with one hand, held a handkerchief to her lips with the other, and ate it in small bites, and when she was done, Fang nodded and praised: "Feng Ju is worthy of being the first proud person around my brother, and even his cooking skills are so good." ”
Lin Jue nodded and smiled, "I'm sick, but I want her to come back to take care of me, can my sister still take advantage of everything?" ”
"Mama Fang is here, not to mention that I also learned to take care of some things at home before, but now there are fewer things, and there is nothing inconvenient."
"Look at my sister again, after I got sick, I didn't go to see my sister, is my sister okay?"
"Brother, don't worry, I'm fine here." Daiyu pursed her lips and looked at Lin Jue with a smile, and said angrily, "My brother said that I grew up before, and now he treats me as a child." ”
Lin Jue smiled: "Yes, it eats like a kitten, isn't it a child!" ”
Daiyu was shy by Lin Jue's words, and glared at her brother angrily, which made Lin Jue laugh even more.
After the brother and sister laughed for a while, Lin Juefang asked: "Our ship has been traveling for more than a month, and because we were in a hurry, we didn't go ashore to replenish, so there are not many fruits and vegetables on board, right?" ”
"I was about to tell my brother that I didn't dare to bring more when I was a child in the south because of the heat, and there were really not many reserves on the ship at this time. There are still two and a half days to go before the next port, and I want to let Lin Fu go ashore to buy some. What does my brother think? ”
"My sister arranged it well. In that case, why don't my sister go ashore with me? ”
"I ...... I'm afraid it's not in accordance with the rules, right? "Daiyu really wants to go, she always sways like this on the boat, and she makes people dizzy, thinking that even if she just steps on the ground and walks around.
"It's okay, I'll take care of it."
Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled, then didn't say anything more, only nodded slightly.
Lin Jue said earnestly: "Yu'er, you remember, although I let you learn the rules, it is not to restrain you." This world is like this, people always like to practice women, and as a woman, you must be more bound by this world than men. Whenever you have the slightest irregularity, there will be a large number of so-called defenders who smear you, trample on you, attack you, and humiliate those who care about you.
Rules are dead, but people are alive, and only rules are used by people, but no one is controlled by rules in turn. I ask you to learn the rules so that you understand them and know how to use them to protect yourself and even fight back against other people's bad intentions. Yu'er, if one day you are bullied, but I am not by your side, even if you don't follow the rules, I want you to spit back immediately, and I can't let anyone bully you.
You are the daughter of my Lin family, even if your father is gone, you are also the eldest girl of my Lin Mansion, my sister of Lin Jue's blood, and the only relative. Although I only have the identity of a person now, I am afraid that it is not of much use in the realm of the capital, but as the eldest girl of my Lin Mansion, no one can bully you, do you understand? ”
"Brother......" Daiyu choked up a little, no one would say such a thing to herself anymore, such a rough truth, only the closest person would tell herself, the dearest relative, her brother.
"Silly girl!" Lin Jue reached out and rubbed Daiyu's head, and his originally good bun was immediately messed up by him.
The trace of emotion in Daiyu's heart was immediately destroyed by Lin Jue, and she slapped Lin Jue's hand away with shame and embarrassment, and said angrily: "Brother......"
Lin Jue laughed.
Daiyu rubbed her handkerchief and looked at Lin Jue with shame. Lin Jue laughed enough, and it was not good to let her sister go out like this, so she called Feng Ju to get Daiyu's makeup box to recomb her hair.
After Daiyu went back, she listened to Lin Jue's words to Mama Fang, and Mama Fang smiled: "Although Uncle's words are superficial, Li'er is such a reason. ”
Daiyu said: "I have some ideas, I don't know if it's right or not, and I ask Mama to help me refer to the details." ”
Mama Fang nodded with a smile, "Girl, it's okay to say." ”
"I went to my grandfather's house in Beijing when I was six years old, and my grandmother was the most disciplined. While my sisters and I were eating with her, my second aunt and sister-in-law would wait on the sidelines, and when we ran out, they could go back to their own courtyard to eat. My grandmother has big rules, but she is extremely charitable to the people in the family, and the big girls in her house are a little more decent than the girls in the family.
I didn't think anything of it, but now that I think about it, the subordinate must abide by the rules of the subordinate, but should the master also abide by the master's rules, the second aunt and the second sister-in-law are both masters, and they still have to do what the subordinate has to do, so what's the use of the subordinate? ”
Daiyu thought that she had thought about it for a long time and said this, and she continued without waiting for Mama Fang to answer: "Then there is the right to be a housekeeper, I didn't understand this, but after returning home, my brother gradually handed over the power of housekeeping to me, and asked Fengju to come over to help me." The family is simple and has no mother, so it doesn't hurt to leave it to me. It's just that the grandfather's family should be the grandmother's housekeeper, and the son should be handed over to the daughter-in-law after marrying a wife.
Moreover, the eldest uncle is a serious person who attacked the title of Rongguo Mansion, but now he is in a corner. To say that the main house is for the grandmother to live in, it is also the filial piety of the eldest uncle, but now it is given to the second uncle, how to look at it. ”
After hearing about it, he was silent for a while and said: "The matter involves the girl's grandfather's family, I shouldn't have said more than a servant, but the girl mentioned it, and I should also solve the girl's doubts." ”
Daiyu smiled: "I believe in Mama." ”
Mama Fang smiled and said to Daiyu: "The duty of the subordinate is needless to say, the girl already knows that in the future, the girl will be the person who will be the head of the house, and the rules of the subordinate will depend on how the housewife 'establishes' this rule." The rules of the master that the girl said are actually the principles of how the master 'establishes' the rules.
As the girl said, Jia Mansion, Jia Lao Taijun is a compassionate person, needless to mention, but the old Taijun is old, and it is inevitable to be partial to the younger son, which is nothing in ordinary people's homes.
The title is given by the royal family, and the old lady does not put the eldest lord who inherited the title in his eyes, and allows the second lord to steal the main house, not to mention the discord between the brothers, I am afraid that it is more likely to provoke the royal displeasure. Besides, the eldest master's sister-in-law married the niece of the second wife's maiden family, and he also followed the second wife to manage the house, which will be a public case in the future.
Besides, the girl mentioned that she asked her daughter-in-law to serve her during dinner, this is just a small trick for some people to pinch their daughters-in-law, and it is really not clever. The girl will get married in the future, if the mother-in-law uses such means to pinch you, you don't have to worry, such a mother-in-law's means are really limited. The girl only needs to find her weakness and try to get it back, which is really simple. As the girl said, there are a lot of subordinates, but they still need their daughters-in-law to serve, and what do they want their subordinates to do?
With all due respect, although Jiafu is the girl's maternal grandfather's house, the girl does not have to be too close to other people except for her filial grandmother. "Mama Fang came out of the palace in the end, and she can be said to be to the point when she sees the problem.
Daiyu sighed when she heard this, "I also think so, when I was in the Jia family, only my grandmother loved me the most. It's just that there are a few sisters, and we play very well, and they never treat me slowly, treating me like a sister. ”
"The interaction between sisters is nothing, in the future, these girls will marry each other, and it will be inconvenient for men to come forward in many things, and it will depend on you to contact each other. It's just that although the girl and the sisters don't hold their own identity, they can't let people take advantage of you. Now you see only a limited number of these people, in the future the uncle will be an official, I am afraid that there will be a lot of noble women to set up a banquet to invite each other, the girl is a celestial person, it is inevitable that there will be such a small sex to take the opportunity to pinch the girl, the girl and have to know the number in the heart. ”
Daiyu pondered carefully, nodded and said, "What Mama said is very true. ”
"It's better not to be a stranger, girl."
"I can trust what Mama said to Mama, if Daiyu does something bad, please tell Mama bluntly. Although Daiyu is dull, she is not that untaught. ”
Mama Fang smiled: "I have never seen such a wise person as the girl." ”
Lin Jue specially hired a sedan chair to take Daiyu around the city, and bought a lot of local snacks, customs and playthings, Daiyu on a whim, and Lin Jue went to the nearby temple to burn incense and pray, and the brothers and sisters were happy.
After the ship was replenished, it continued to set off, and after traveling for more than half a month, it finally arrived in the capital.
