13. Compete for favor

When the carriage rushed into the Qizhu Dapai Gate that left the city, the sky was already dawning, and the morning fog was heavy. Qiu Huitian explained a few words to the coachman. The coachman whipped up and went straight to the door of Lin Ruhai's mansion.

It is the corner gate at the back of the house, not the gate at the front.

The front door can only be opened if it is a big event or a distinguished guest. For example, the patriarch led all the elders to worship the spirit. This is really called opening the door and stealing, but the owner has to quietly connect in the back.

Lin Dai got up early in the morning and waited at the back door to pick up someone.

Mama Qiu had already added a wheat ear pattern orchid velvet cloak to her, and a white brocade and ink cushion was placed under her head, so she dared to let her sit, but she was still worried in her heart, and when she accompanied her for a while, she urged: "Girl, look at this fog!" Why don't you go back? ”

"It's okay," Lin Dai said quietly, "it's time to arrive in a moment." ”

Mama Qiu muttered in her heart: "That one who is reckless and ungrateful and ungrateful!" I don't know if she will come? ”

As he was thinking, he heard the sound of the wheels. Then I heard the sound of people getting out of the car. Then he heard the stop at the outside door: "Oh, you can't just enter here-"

Lin Dai got up and walked out of the porch, and said to the mother-in-law at the inner door: "Go and bring people in." ”

Mama Qiu hugged the girl tightly, saw the tall Yinggu, and stepped into the door.

It's so stinky! Mama Qiu thought: At this time, she is still dressed up so neatly, really, really-

Mama Qiu's throat was choked, her eyes were blurred, and she returned to the time when Madame was still there. She and the eldest grandmother didn't like each other, and the bickering didn't stop, but respecting the lady, loving the miss, and doing their best were really the same.

Yinggu bowed deeply to the girl, and held up the Huasheng with both hands: "Madame's relics, Yinggu is ashamed to take them, please take them back." ”

"Yes." Lin Dai held Hua Sheng and Ying Gu's hand together, "When the sky clears, I'll give you another one." ”

The words "sunny days" of course refer to something else.

Mama Qiu's tears fell. Ying Gu choked up, held back her tears, and scolded her: "When is it now?" The girl didn't cry, you seduced the girl! This time, Mama Qiu was willing to be scolded by her. Yinggu turned her head to apologize to the girl, "I should have mourned for the master." broke the master-servant contract, had no name, and couldn't wear filial piety clothes, so he had to choose the dark color to wear. ”

Lin Dai called out to Mama Qiu.

Mama Qiu has brought the mourning clothes that have been prepared early and helped Aunt Ying change them.

Since then, Yinggu has become a member of the Lin Mansion again.

Rong Bo immediately understood this meaning, but the people in the Lin clan still didn't understand it very well. It's just that back then, Lin Xie's behavior was low-key enough, and Yinggu was her subordinate, and she was not taken seriously. What's more, after being kicked out for many years, many people in the Lin clan have simply forgotten her.

Rong Bo will never forget.

She bit her nails and thought, "You old men, you can't think of what a woman can do, can you?" I'm not going to give you a message! - You look down on me! Why should I? I'll just sit here and watch you fight. Look at you fighting...... Hey, it's good that all the fights are dead! Master, you went, they all bullied me......"

She didn't dare to cry out loud about this, for fear of being scolded by the patriarch again, and asked her to cite evidence of bullying, but she couldn't say it clearly.

Her loss can only be endured, biting in her heart like a little worm, waiting for an opportunity to burst out and make others feel bad.

The suona in the mourning hall sounded, the singing was loud, and a new day began. The people of the Lin clan came to the door one after another. They were relieved, and today they wanted to talk to the filial daughter about the establishment of an heir, and they didn't dare to refuse her.

As for her maternal grandfather, the Xie family...... It's a long way off! I won't be able to come for a few days. Even if you come, what can you say?

Yu Kan Ye and several other people in the big house looked at each other and knew each other: the next battle only depends on which of them can successfully recommend the candidate in their room to the filial daughter Lin Daiyu!

The atmosphere in Lin Ruhai's mourning hall has been greatly improved compared with the previous day, from being poignant and tense to being cordial, harmonious and friendly.

When the curious boys outside asked Qiu Huitian about the situation inside, Qiu Huitian replied like this.

The boys booed him: "The mourning hall should cry!" The more miserable you cry, the better! What is the mourning hall called? ”

Qiu Huitian scratched her head, did not comment, and went back to sleep.

The boys pulled him: "Oops! The sun comes out and you sleep in nothing. The thief went last night? ”

"yes, yes." Qiu Huitian snorted.

The boys winked their eyebrows: "You went out last night!" Where did you go to be a thief? ”

Qiu Huitian is not provoked or deceived. He snored evenly.

The boys kicked his ass with hatred, and Qiu Huitian's snoring remained unchanged. The boys grinded their teeth around him for a while, but they couldn't, and they could only scatter.

There is no secret leaking from Qiu Huitian's mouth, Yinggu came back this time and was very low-key, without saying a word, she wore linen and kept filial piety with other subordinates in the backyard, and the old-fashioned people were almost gone because of Rong Bo, and many people didn't know her at all.

It took a long time for the news of her return to reach someone's ears.

This ear and eye pondered for a while: Do you want to sue the master?

Think about it, there is nothing wrong with suing sù, but it is a dereliction of duty not to sue sù. It's better to sue sù!

Unexpectedly, his master Lin Cunyu was busy competing for favor in front of the girl with the old man Fei and others, just like ** in **, soliciting customers in the street, hooking the red sleeves on the head: Guest, look at our room! We have a double heart of virtue and art in our room, and you won't regret it! ――Other rooms? Stupid? Choose him, you're a fool!

Lin Dai had a score in his heart, and he wouldn't spit out anything to promise them at all, but just listened softly, and seemed to be very stupid and naïve to ask: "Really?" Is there a benefit to having an heir? ”

The elders in several rooms rushed to tell her the benefits and grabbed each other's heads.

Lin Dai provoked again: "But...... Isn't it important to choose someone? The choice is not suitable, and the spirit of the deceased father in the sky is not at peace, is it? ”

"That's right!" The elders of several rooms are vying to say that they are good and stepping on other candidates.

Lin Dai pretended to listen attentively and lowered his head. Let them fight! Just when the battle was so hot, the ears and eyes touched like a cat, and called Lin Cunyu out with eyebrows. Lin Cunyu heard it: It's just a subordinate who has been away from the house for many years! And he hasn't been with the girl yet, just huddled in the backyard with other low-class people! Is this also worth mentioning? Did he lose a good position to speak in the mourning hall?

Annoyed, he asked, "Have you checked it?" Why did you come back all of a sudden? ”

The ears and eyes replied: "I heard that although the master-servant contract was broken, Nian was serving for half his life, and he still came back to wear linen and filial piety to the master, and the girl was also approved." ”

"Isn't that the end of it? Ask me why for such a small matter! Lin Cunyu wanted to run back to the mourning hall, and then thought about it, everything is safe, "-You better check it again!" There is a heavy dà message to sue me again. Remember, you have to be heavy! ”

The ears and eyes retreated. Later, he stopped reporting the news to Lin Cunyu for a long time. Just because he weighs it himself, it's not heavy enough, and there is no need to annoy the master.

A good boss can motivate his subordinates, while a bad boss is like a bad parent, who crushes the lively child into a piece of wood, and wonders why he is not as clever as other people's children.

Lin Dai played a monkey show in the mourning hall for half a morning, and then left the stage to enjoy a teabreak—well, a tea break. When I was in the company, the front desk lady could make all kinds of excuses in order to enjoy such a break. Lin Dai did the same and told those people: "The elders have very good ideas, and the little girl really can't say anything." Why don't the elders discuss and make a final decision, is it good to teach the little girl? ”

- Shenma? A verdict?! The elders' eyes collided, and the smell of gunpowder was even stronger. Lin Dai took the opportunity to slip away.

Rong Bo was standing idly by the moon gate, watching the chickens shaving insects and eating, and when he saw the girl coming, he pointed to the chick and scolded: "The chickens and roosters are all in the pot, so I will leave you a wicked obstacle to see how long you can jump!" ”
