Chapter 23: Min and the Jade Twenty-third Chapter
The Ebai family set off early in the morning of the second day, and Lin Ruhai held a banquet to see them off in the evening.
Unexpectedly, Lin Ruhai had just come back from the mansion, and the Obis were waiting for him at the door.
"Brother E, what is this?" Lin Ruhai looked at the Obhai couple at the door, and was a little puzzled for a while, did he want to leave early?
Ebai looked at Lin Ruhai and smiled, and then bowed to Lin Ruhai.
"Brother E, what are you doing?" Lin Ruhai hurriedly stepped forward to support Ebai.
"There is something to ask for for my brother." Ebai insisted on saluting.
"Alas, this is, Brother E, let's go to the study to discuss something, why do you and I see each other like this."
Hearing Lin Ruhai say this, Ebai straightened up.
The three of them came to Lin Ruhai's study together.
After the next person looked at the tea, Lin Ruhai waved his hand and asked them all to retreat.
"Brother E, if you have anything to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
The two of them glanced at each other, and the two of them took a sip of tea and were silent for a while before speaking.
"Yu'er, this child, my husband and wife like it very much." When he said this, Ebai looked up at Lin Ruhai's expression carefully, and didn't say a word.
"Brother E, what do you mean by this?" Lin Ruhai frowned slightly, the first thing he thought about was that the two of them fell in love with their daughter, and this action was to set the baby in advance.
It's not that Lin Ruhai doesn't look down on Ortai, he also likes that child tightly, but now Lin Daiyu is only eight years old, will it be too early now?
What Lin Ruhai can think of, Ebai can also think of, otherwise he would not have proposed to accept Lin Daiyu as a righteous daughter first.
Although the Obai couple had the intention of treating Lin Daiyu as their daughter-in-law, they were too young after all, and it was inevitably abrupt to get married all of a sudden.
In addition, Ebai itself is a seed of infatuation, and in the environment of the Qing Dynasty, he only married his own wife and did not have a concubine.
So he himself is like this, and he also hopes that his son will treat Lin Daiyu like this.
The two of them really cherish Lin Daiyu, so they thought about this reason, let the two of them become childhood sweethearts, and if they have a friendship, Ortai will not take concubines in the future.
"Brother Lin Xian, my wife and I want to accept Daiyu as a righteous daughter, I don't know, whether Brother Xian is willing?" Seeing that Lin Ruhai's complexion had not changed much, Ebai continued.
"Righteous daughter?" Lin Ruhai raised his eyebrows, looking a little surprised.
Afraid that Lin Ruhai would misunderstand, Ebai then spoke, "It's just a righteous daughter, and she won't enter my family's genealogy." ”
"Brother Hu." Lin Ruhai was a little excited, and he stood up.
I have to say that Ebai's mention is in line with Lin Ruhai's intentions, but in the current situation, Lin Daiyu needs a stepmother.
The Jia family sent someone over every few months to take their daughter over, and now that she has filial piety, Lin Daiyu doesn't have to go over, but once the filial piety period is over, Lin Daiyu has also reached her age, and it is not appropriate to have no one around to educate her.
The reason why Lin Ruhai entrusted Lin Daiyu to the Jia family in the last life is that there is no choice, the Lin family has no relatives within the five blessings, although Lin Ruhai also has a lot of friends, but it is not appropriate to entrust his daughter to a person who is not related to blood.
With no other choice, Lin Ruhai had no choice but to entrust his daughter to the Jia family, how to say that there is also a little blood relationship, plus Lin Daiyu still has a lot of family wealth, for the sake of money, the Jia family will not neglect their daughter.
However, what Lin Ruhai didn't expect was that at the end of the Jia family, they were already like vampires, waiting to squeeze enough of the Lin family's wealth, how could they treat their poor daughter well.
Large families, in the face of interests, there is no friendship at all.
But in this life, Lin Ruhai's body is very healthy, so he will never send his daughter to the Jia family, and the relationship with the Jia family is only on the surface.
Although according to Kangxi's favor for Lin Ruhai, he can find the emperor to ask for a nurturing grandmother, but Lin Ruhai has always been low-key and upright, such things seem to be ordinary as a favored minister, but in Lin Ruhai's heart, it can be regarded as a privilege.
So at this time, Ebai proposed to accept Lin Daiyu as a righteous daughter, how could he disagree.
"Brother Xian, are you willing?"
Seeing that Lin Ruhai stood up, he didn't say anything in the future, and Ebai couldn't be sure, was this willing or unwilling?
"How can I not want to, I will call Yu'er over and formally meet her stepfather and mother." Lin Ruhai said with a smile, with a smile between his words, which was considered a big concern for himself.
"Let Tai'er come over and recognize your sister-in-law." Obai also said happily, he didn't expect Lin Ruhai and himself to hit it off so much, such a big event, there was only a time for a cup of tea, and it was decided.
Ortai was with Lin Daiyu and Lin Zhiyuan, and when he saw someone coming to summon him, he came to the study with Lin Daiyu.
"Yu'er, come and meet your stepfather and mother." Lin Ruhai said to Lin Daiyu with a smile, and when he said this, he looked at Ebai and Mrs. Obai.
Lin Daiyu was a little flustered, but Ortai beside her was completely frozen.
He lowered his eyes and covered the bitterness in his eyes, "Sister?" For some reason, he didn't feel very comfortable thinking of this title.
Although the relationship between the two seems to be one step closer, their hearts are empty.
But it's okay, if she really becomes her sister, then she can protect her as an elder brother, Ortai comforted herself like this, but this discomfort in her heart is not a day or two days can pass.
Mrs. Obai smiled and looked at Daiyu, who was a little stunned, "Yu'er come here." ”
Lin Daiyu came back to her senses at this time, she lowered her head and slowly walked forward.
Although it looks calm on the surface, it is churning inside. Although it is beneficial for Lin Daiyu to recognize Ebai as her father-in-law, but if she wants to enter the flag spectrum, wouldn't she have to participate in the draft?
This is a completely unexpected thing, that palace, Lin Daiyu didn't want to go at all, Lin Daiyu was calculating in her heart, how could she perfunctory this matter.
Mrs. Obai took Lin Daiyu into her arms, she smiled gently, how to see how pleasing Lin Daiyu was, "I'm afraid I'm going to wronged Yu'er." ”
Lin Daiyu blinked her eyes and heard something from Mrs. Ebai.
Lin Daiyu looked at Mrs. Obai with a puzzled expression, and then looked at her father.
The three people in the room smiled together, and knew that this thing was a bit headless and endless.
Lin Ruhai told Lin Daiyu in detail about the matter.
Lin Daiyu nodded, with a smile on her face, it turned out that she just recognized her father and mother, and she didn't need to be in the flag spectrum.
Hearing this, Ortai next to Lin Daiyu also breathed a sigh of relief, it can be said that he is the happiest person in this room, he lowered his head vigorously, afraid that others would see his abnormal smile.
"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, worship Daiyu." Lin Daiyu saluted the Obis couple very formally.
"Good daughter, get up quickly."
The Obis couple helped Lin Daiyu up together, how to see how they liked it.
If it weren't for Lin Ruhai to stop her, Mrs. Ebai would really have given all the gold and silver jewelry she brought to Daiyu as a New Year's gift.
That night, Lin Daiyu slept with Mrs. Ebai, and the two chatted for a long time and found that they were very close to each other.
It's just that this warm moment always passes quickly, and on the second day, the Ejia family is about to leave early, and this trip can't be delayed.
When leaving, Mrs. Obai was reluctant to give up, if it wasn't for the Chinese New Year, she really wanted to take Lin Daiyu away.
"Yu'er, you must come to the capital next year to stay for a few days." Mrs. Obai at the instructions of the three. Ortai on the side didn't speak, but his gaze never left Lin Daiyu.
Lin Daiyu smiled and nodded, "Father-in-law, don't let Yu'er go, Yu'er will go too." Lin Daiyu said mischievously.
Mrs. Obai touched Lin Daiyu's little head fondly, and whispered again, this scene is really like a biological mother and daughter.
The sky is getting brighter, and parting is always coming.
It wasn't until she couldn't see Lin Daiyu's figure that Mrs. Obby put her head back into the carriage, thinking only about this, and the next meeting would come soon.
