Lin Yao went back and saw that she didn't see the nurse, although she was very happy in her heart, she didn't show it on her face, she just drank the medicine quietly, washed up briefly, and fell asleep. I didn't do anything tonight, but I was very tired.

Here, Lin Ruhai accompanied Jia Min back to the upper room, and did not go to the front study or the aunt's room, but only lay on the bed with Jia Min and gossiped. This kind of thing has not happened to the couple for many years.

As he spoke, he talked about Lin Yao. Jia Min always felt that today's Lin Yao seemed to have changed as a person, but in her heart, she only thought that she was a colorful dress to comfort her child's pain, and her heart was very comforted and moved, and she said to Lin Ruhai today, Lin Ruhai felt strongly today, usually her daughter was well-behaved, soft, soft and weak, although everyone was beautiful, but in the end it was quieter. Now Lin Ruhai thinks it's very good.

Now that his son is gone, thinking that he Lin Ruhai would have a difficult heir, and it is rare to have a son, so it is better to raise the girl as a child, and it will be good to recruit a son-in-law or a kiss in the future. Although he can't stand up to the door, in the end he still talks about the desolation under his knees. I thought of it again, recruiting a son-in-law to come to the Lin family, so that someone would inherit the incense, and I would have to see my ancestors underground. That is to say, if you are pro, you can discuss with your in-laws to choose a child from the surname Lin, and you will not have a successor in your own lineage, and if you don't become a child, you will not be bullied if you are stronger. So he said: "Yu'er is smart and delicate, if she is a good student, it will be good if she can't stand up to the door in the future." But he didn't say what he was thinking in his heart.

Jia Min heard that since he wanted to be raised as a boy, he did not report hope for the heir, thinking of his dying brother Yan'er, his heart felt a dull pain, but he also understood that Brother Yan had gone, and the matter of Yu'er in front of him was important, so he discussed with the master to come up with a conclusion and ask for an explanation, so he said: "Since it is said to be raised as a boy, then it is time to plan and plan." Thinking about it, he said: "Look at it, what is a good gentleman, not to mention our scholarly family, just by virtue of your name as Tanhualang, our girl also needs to read and break words." It is feasible to raise the list and show talent to fall behind, Yu'er is still young now, and she is very evasive, and it is cheap to learn from her husband. After all, now we will enlighten first. In the future, when she is older, I will inquire about a good gentleman, although she cannot participate in the imperial examination, it is always good to be able to teach the heirs" After a pause, he continued: "In a few days, I will be well in health, and I will also give her an embroidery master, and the girl's family always has to learn." ”

Lin Ruhai listened to Jia Min say that he would teach his heirs, but he was really stunned for a moment, and he didn't think that today's girl was joking, but his husband and wife really had the same heart, so he smiled with satisfaction: "Mrs. is thoughtful, I really didn't want to ask Yu'er for Mr. before, and when I enlightened Brother Yan'er before, Yu'er also recognized a few words." I also wanted to say that Yu'er was much more spiritual than Brother Zhiyan. Now I see that the three-character scripture has not been recited seriously, but it is not good. I think I was enlightened when I was three years old when I was a child, and I don't have to explain the whole three-character scripture, but I also have a good back. You are not in good health, and I am also busy in the yamen, so I will go to Yu'er to find a gentleman when I turn around. ”

Jia Min saw that Lin Ruhai said sincerely, although he mentioned Brother Yan, he didn't shy away from himself, and he was also comforted in his heart, and then thought that Lin Ruhai's jade in the sea was more spiritual than Brother Yan'er, and his heart was both happy and sour, so he didn't say anything more, only nodded and said okay, thinking that since Lin Ruhai took this matter to heart, he saved his effort.

remembered that the couple hadn't relied on talking like this for a long time, usually either Yu'er was still young and needed to be taken care of, or Brother Yan'er's side was always worrying, but now that Brother Yan is gone, Yu'er is getting better and better. Moreover, Lin Ruhai's yamen has been very busy, and there are some faceless things in the backyard, so since Yu'er and the two of them have never been so close to talk about their hearts. Thinking about it, he tilted his head and leaned on Lin Ruhai, and tears fell on his shoulder.

Lin Ruhai saw Jia Min leaning on his shoulder and crying, guessing that Jia Min remembered Brother Yan again, why didn't he want to? only regretted that he shouldn't have mentioned it, which made Jia Min sad in vain, and wasted Yu'er's thoughts today, so he comforted: "The past is gone, maybe God looks at Yu'er too well, and if he doesn't give us another son, it's good for us to treat Yu'er as a son, I can't say that our Yu'er is better than many people's children, right?" ”

Jia Min didn't expect this to happen, but now when he heard Lin Ruhai mention it, he was even more sad in his heart, and the tears were even more turbulent. Lin Ruhai saw that it was wrong, the more comforting this was, the more she cried hard, so she hurriedly sat up, straightened Jia Min's body, looked into her eyes and said, "Don't cry badly, Brother Yan'er is gone, we still have Yu'er waiting for you to take care of and teach." ”

Seeing Lin Ruhai comforting himself so solemnly, Jia Min couldn't help laughing out loud all of a sudden, so he had to wipe his tears and say: "Master is very worried, I am happy that Yu'er grew up," Speaking of this, he thought that Yu'er grew up overnight because Brother Yan went, and he was sad and heartbroken, and couldn't help wiping a handful of tears before turning his head and saying: "Aunt Bai and Aunt Liu in the backyard are all good, and they have been following the master for many years. It's just that Aunt Zhuang ......" Jia Min didn't continue, only glanced at Lin Ruhai with his eyes, and saw that he heard Aunt Zhuang's face was a little unpleasant, so he continued: "In the end, it came out of someone's house, it can't compare to my own family, now Brother Yan is gone, my body is not good, I only count on Yu'er, and I can't tolerate any messy people hurting Yu'er." ”

Lin Ruhai was still very upset when he heard Jia Min mention the backyard, after all, Jia Min had been infertile for many years because he had been wronged in the backyard. Now when I hear this again, it's not right: "People come out of the house", Lin Ruhai still understands, after all, this Aunt Zhuang only came to her house this year, although the retort family is an old relative of Rongguo Mansion, it has nothing to do with herself, and she can't afford to send a concubine over. However, although it was unclear, it was difficult to push, so I had to stay in the backyard. It's just that what did Jia Min say in the last sentence "hurting Yu'er"? Could it be that this Aunt Zhuang ...... Thinking of this, I remembered the red and happy color I saw before Aunt Zhuang, and I was a little angry in my heart, my brother Yan went just after the first seven, why was she so happy? The mind is in a hurry, could it be that Brother Yan'er's matter has something to do with this Aunt Zhuang? Although Lin Ruhai didn't know much about the affairs of the Hou Mansion Yin Division, he didn't know anything about it, so he squinted his eyes and looked at Jia Min, and asked in a very unkind tone, "What do you know?" Why don't you tell me about it?! "It's annoying to say it.

Jia Min was also startled when he saw Lin Ruhai like this, and his mind turned sharply, the old one was old anyway, and it was given by the old lady before her death, so she couldn't move. Besides, the medicine sent by his mother was quietly given to those two, and now he is still honest all these years. But this young one can't stay! Regardless of whether Brother Yan'er's affairs are related to her or not, she must be eliminated! So he hurriedly learned Lin Ruhai's words of being the master of the house before, and then said: "Yu'er is only four years old, she will never say this for no reason, someone always says something in front of her, or Yu'er herself sees something we don't know, otherwise why did Yu'er faint in Brother Yan's room?" When I woke up, my body wasn't well yet, so I ran to me? Jia Min thought for a while and said: "Besides, that Aunt Bai and Aunt Liu were given to you by the old lady, and she is the old man in the family. But Aunt Zhuang has only been here for a few months, and we don't know the roots. And before she came, Brother Yan was originally good, but why did she suddenly ......" began to shed tears as she spoke, and she didn't wipe her tears, and then said, "Yu'er has also changed her appearance overnight. Why don't people think about it too much? After speaking, he lowered his head and wiped the corners of his eyes. The more I thought about it, the more suspicious I became, so the resentment couldn't stop popping up, "If I say that she is a good person, I would be fine, but what do you think of her now?" How long has Brother Yan been there? And she became arrogant! It's always the master's habitual favor, or the master has given some promises, so it will be so! ”

Lin Ruhai was also shocked when he heard this, so he only stared at Jia Min with his eyes, and snorted twice: "What can I promise her?" She's worth it, too? Besides, it's not up to you to decide about this back house? Seeing Lin Ruhai say this, Jia Min said: "Don't say such things, she is the one who serves the master." But I only said that although the Zhen family and my mother's family are old relatives, and Mrs. Zhen's mother is my mother's wife, how many years has Mrs. Zhen been gone? Besides, the Zhen family is not related to our Lin family, even if it is just a face-saving relationship during the New Year's Festival, it usually never communicates, why did he send someone to you? Lin Ruhai kept observing with his eyes when he heard Jia Min say, and when he saw that Jia Min had no different color, he also said: "In this case, you just look at it, you don't have to care about me here, it's just a thing." Just one point, whether Brother Yan'er's matter is related to her or not needs to be investigated! Then he lay back down. Jia Min saw that Lin Ruhai closed his eyes and was about to sleep, so he also lay down next to each other and leaned on Lin Ruhai's arm.

He was about to sleep in peace when he suddenly thought of something again, sat up again, and when he saw Lin Ruhai and paid attention to it, he shook his arm and said, "Master, since you plan for Yu'er like this, I will mention it again, you see if it is feasible, if it works, you still need the master to come forward." Lin Ruhai opened her eyes when she heard her mention her baby daughter again, "Our Yu'er was born with cold, and she has a cough every year in this winter." Since Huang Jiyun is the master's best friend, and he is also a medical master, and now he has prescribed a prescription for Yu'er, why didn't the master come forward and invite him to diagnose and treat Yu'er's good life again, and it was good to go to the root of the cough, wouldn't it be good? When Lin Ruhai heard this, he smiled and said, "What happened to me at that time." He was a casual person, and he couldn't force it. It's a coincidence that I came here, today I saw him diagnose Yu'er's pulse, and I think I also like Yu'er, I mentioned it when I was eating tea outside, but he didn't refuse or nod his head to say much, but after three or five **** will definitely come to see Yu'er again. When the time comes, you're packing up a table of drinks, and I'm looking for something to tell him. Jia Min couldn't help nodding in agreement, and then heard Lin Ruhai say: "It's okay for anything else, but he likes pickles in the north and drinks in the southwest, so you can let people prepare more." ”

After the couple finished talking about business, as soon as they lay down, Jia Min sat up for the third time after thinking of something, and Lin Ruhai was a little annoyed! Without waiting for Jia Min to open his mouth, he closed his eyes and said, "You can't sleep in the middle of the night?" Which one is this? Jia Min saw that Lin Ruhai was annoyed, and wanted to lie down, but he endured no one to stay, but he still asked: "After talking for a long time, it has been several days, but what are you talking about how to deal with those mothers-in-law and maids in Brother Yan's house?" Just look at the nurse of Yu'er today, you can think about how they usually treat slowly! Even if Brother Yan is a brother, he is still young, and he is not in the hands of them? Now that Brother Yan is gone, these people will never be spared! It's just that you've got to give me a charter. As he spoke, he burst into tears and coughed uncontrollably. Lin Ruhai couldn't help but sit up again, hugged Jia Min into his arms and whispered comfort: "You don't have to tell me about this, the affairs of the back house are always up to you." Since you have asked me now, I will only say one word, after finding out the matter of Brother Yan'er, I will never let go of those who are black-hearted and rotten, and I will not wronged those who are innocent. Since she has the heart to teach Yu'er, it is better to take Yu'er with her when she disposes of it, and she can learn to distinguish between loyalty and treachery. In this way, he whispered some relief before the two fell asleep.

When I woke up on the second day, Lin Ruhai was no longer by my side, Kapok, Qiluo brought four or five little girls to fetch water and came in to serve Jia Min to freshen up, Jia Min remembered last night's words for a while, and asked casually: "Can the girl get up?" As soon as she finished asking, Kapok replied: "Jin'er came over early in the morning and said, the girl woke up at the beginning of Maochu, and wanted to come over to ask the old lady to say goodbye, but after sitting for a while, she was sleepy, so she sent Jin'er over and said: 'I won't be here today, if my wife wakes up, you can coax my wife to joke, don't be sad, it's okay or go to the garden or go to the side yard to see me." 'Madame, look at the girl, is she like a little adult?' As he spoke, he laughed with Qiluo, and Jia Min also smiled when he heard it: "I still want her to worry about me as a villain, so let's go over and see her in a while." ”

Although Jia Min's body is still a little weak, just like Lin Yao guessed, when he is in a good mood, his body will naturally be much better, and Jia Min is not a big deal, but he is just an excessive sadness. Now that Lin Yao is teasing, there is no time to spend time to be sad and sad. After having breakfast under the service of Qiluo Kapok, he left Qiluo to take care of the house, and helped Kapok to go to the West Cross Courtyard.

When I arrived at the West Cross Courtyard, I saw Jin'er sitting under the porch decocting medicine, smiling and taking the two little girls to do needlework at the door. Seeing Jia Min coming, they all quickly got up and gave Wanfu. The two five or six-year-old girls in the courtyard were so frightened that they hid behind the pillars, and quietly tilted their heads to look at Jia Min, thinking that Jia Min didn't know. Jia Min was in a much better mood, and when she saw these two girls lively, she beckoned them to come over. The two looked around, and finally stared at Hanxiao, Jia Min immediately smiled: "I called you over, what are you doing with Hanxiao?" Is it possible that you still have to smile and nod your head before you can come over? The two little girls blushed when they heard this, and smiled because of the fact that Mama Wang was kicked out yesterday, and quickly said: "Mrs. said this, but it can be tortured to death the slave and maid." So saying, he knelt down. With a smile, what is there in Jia Min's mind that he can't see? He said, "Hurry up, I know you're a good one." As long as I do my best to your girl, I won't treat anyone badly. I can't tell the difference between the lord and the servant, and I will never allow the girl to be pinched when she is young. As he spoke, he motioned for Jin'er to pull her up, took two steps forward, and gently pinched the little girl's face with his hand and said, "How old are you?" What's your name? How long have you been with the girl? "Jia Min vaguely remembers that Brother Yan turned one year old that year, and when he bought a playmate for Brother Yan, he also bought two girl playmates for Yu'er by the way, and I think these are the two." Back to Mrs., the slave maid is called Qinghe, which is the name given by the girl. At the age of five, who turned half a year, he had been with the girl for two years, and he only learned to sprinkle and sweep in the yard, and sometimes the girl would take the slaves and maids to play together. The little hand pointed to the snow-white powder girl next to her and said, "Her name is Snow Goose, and she has been with the girl for two years, and we came together." Turning six next month. Jia Min saw that this girl's rules were good, and her speech was clear, so she liked it a little in her heart, but in a blink of an eye, how did she buy it back with the snow goose, but the rules were so much worse? The host won't answer the question? But then I thought about it, I was just a playmate anyway, and it didn't matter if I couldn't send him to the kitchen to help out in two years. He nodded and said softly to Qinghe: "Go." Then he turned and went into the hall.

As soon as Jia Min entered, he saw that all the curtains were tied with ribbons, and the curtains on the desk were also rolled up, Lin Yao slept soundly on the bed, but the bed curtain actually only put down the innermost layer of smoke veil, and immediately turned around with a black face.

"Even Jin'er, you are so indifferent to the girl? But the heart is big? When Kapok saw Jia Min's ugly face, he hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him, and gave Jin'er a look, but he didn't want Jin'er to just be stunned and smiled: "Mrs. has wronged the slave and maid, and the girl has not woken up before dawn, so she has to open the window, and Zhixuan is unwilling to smile at it, so the girl specially ran to pull the slave and said, 'Where is it like a steamer?' It is not necessary to be so, everything in heaven and earth has its own reason, spring has the moisture of spring, summer has the warmth of summer, autumn has the temperament of autumn, winter has the agility of winter, like you everything is closed out of the window, locked out of the door, what can we get in the house? Hearing the girl say this, the slave and maid were startled, and they were about to open the window immediately, but the girl said, 'Forget it, this time when the fog is thick and the dew is heavy, it is not good to attract the dew, but when the sun comes out and the fog dissipates, the curtains of the windows are opened, and I can sleep more happily, and don't stew all the people in the house. ”

Jia Min was very puzzled when she heard Lin Yao's crooked reasoning: "Where did your girl hear these crooked reasoning?" It's just you little hooves chewing your tongue in front of the girl! As he spoke, he thought about Lin Yao's words that made sense, and laughed again. Thinking about the sweetness of Lin Yao's sleep, he also said: "I am waiting for the girl, be careful not to catch a cold" and walked away again.

Jia Min returned to the main room and had nothing to do, so he pondered what reason to find to deal with Aunt Zhuang, and besides, there must be a charter for this treatment, is it dismissed? Or is it sold? Is it a hundred? Or the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha? It was difficult to decide for a while, so he thought of the people in Brother Yan'er's room again, so he asked with a cold face: "Where are the people in Brother Yan'er's room now?" Qiluo listened outside the house and knew that after Brother Yan'er went, Kapok had been busy taking care of his wife and girl, but he didn't care about it, he probably didn't know, so he walked in and returned: "The girl fainted before, and the wife was also sad and ruthless, and she was groggy all day long, and she had to rush to see the girl when she woke up, so no one would deal with it, and now she is still locked up in the East Cross Courtyard, separated and closed, so as not to string confessions, the lord is all day, the yamen, the wife, and the girl's are also too busy to touch the ground, only to say that this matter will be dealt with when the wife is better, Is it time to bring them up? Qiluo and Kapok both thought that they were going to deal with the matter over there, and they both bit their lips and thought about how to help Zhi'er intercede, but Jia Min just frowned and thought about something, but he didn't mention the matter of the East Cross Courtyard, and said: "Tell two people to go to the backyard to look at Aunt Zhuang, don't show traces, whether it is useful or not, when she met someone in a day, what she did, what she said, and remember the back and forth to me clearly." Don't pick the people in our yard, although she has been here for a short time, I'm afraid she has figured out the people in our yard. Well done, reward! ”

Jia Min was in poor health and had another stumbling, if it weren't for Lin Yao's coaxing, it is estimated that he would still be crooked in bed and couldn't get up, but now that he has walked this big circle, he is tired of talking this way, so he will be crooked on the chaise longue, who knows that Kapok sneered and laughed again: "The strange thing is that yesterday the girl said that the family has the same heart, and before sending the girl back last night, the girl quietly pulled me and said, 'If Mrs. says when she wants to lean crooked on the chaise longue or lean on the Arhat bed, Just tell me what you said to let Mrs. Tingtingdang lie down in bed and sleep peacefully, there is no big deal in the house, and no matter how big it is, it is not as important as Mrs. Body. 'Madame, don't you have fulfilled this?' Come into the back room and lie down and sleep for a while, don't you disappoint the girl's instructions, don't you? Jia Min was overjoyed when he heard this, and he didn't have to worry about it like this anymore! Not yet five years old, it hurts a little, so I grinned at the thought of it, nodded and got up and walked towards the inner room.
