Chapter 207: Jia Lian's Secrets
Daiyu's parents were mourned, and now when she returns to Beijing, she sees her grandmother, and she is filled with joy and sorrow. Jia's mother reunited with her granddaughter who had been raised for so many years after a long absence, and she remembered Daiyu's ill-fated fate and felt pity, so the two cried bitterly in Rongqing Hall.
When Jia Baoyu walked in, he saw Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Xing gently persuading each other, but to no avail.
Daiyu saw that everyone in the hall, including the two aunts, stood helplessly and watched her and Jia's mother crying about their family affection, and her heart moved. After Jia's mother finished speaking, she took the initiative to come out of Jia's mother's arms, and then kowtowed to Jia's mother in a proper manner: "My granddaughter is not filial, and she hasn't been filial to her grandmother for a year, and now she just came back, she made her grandmother sad and crying, and she felt uneasy. I also ask my grandmother not to be sad about her granddaughter's parents, and take good care of her body, so that her granddaughter can serve and fulfill her filial piety by her grandmother's side with peace of mind. ”
"Okay, my Yu'er is now grown up and sensible, grandmother listens to you. Good boy, get up quickly......"
Mother Jia helped Daiyu up, let her sit beside her again, and stroked Daiyu's face with her vicissitudes of life, full of pity.
Others also echoed and praised Daiyu, and in this way, the sad atmosphere gradually fell.
Daiyu quietly glanced at Jia Baoyu, and Jia Baoyu gave her a look of praise. Daiyu lowered her head shyly, then raised her head again, and returned a little proud expression.
Jia Baoyu smiled knowingly and said to Jia's mother: "Old ancestor, I heard Zijuan say before that Sister Lin came back this time, but she brought us all gifts, isn't the old ancestor curious?"
Jia Mu was really stunned, and then smiled: "Oh, Yu'er went out and learned to do things?"
Daiyu's face flushed, and she whispered: "But it's all some things I brought from home, not bought from outside......"
As he spoke, he glared at Jia Baoyu and blamed him for being troublesome. Although she had prepared those things, she hadn't decided whether to send them or not.
As soon as Daiyu said that she brought it from home, everyone understood.
Lin Ruhai was born in Tanhualang, and he is located in Jiangnan Yandao, even if he is honest, he should have a lot of elegant collections at home.
"Yo yo yo, now we are blessed, Aunt Lin is a famous Tanhua master in the imperial court, and his old man's things are naturally excellent. I have to ask first, is there my share? ”
Wang Xifeng is always the best at picking the right time to speak.
Daiyu glanced at her, frowning slightly, as if considering whether to ignore her.
Jia Mu smiled, she patted Daiyu's hand, and said, "Okay, it just so happens that you have walked so far, go back to the house and settle down first, I have been cleaning up the house for you, and everything is ready-made and clean."
Go back, you have to send me something, I'm going to see what kind of gift my Yu'er will give me. ”
Daiyu was ashamed again, stood up and saluted the elders, and then said goodbye and left.
Sister Sanchun followed closely and asked as she walked, "Sister Lin, what gifts have you brought us......
“……”
Daiyu left, and Jia's mother instructed Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng to prepare a dinner party, and to wash the dust for Daiyu and Jia Lian tonight.
Wang Xifeng went down and prepared to go.
Jia Mu was also about to rest for a while, and then saw that Jia Baoyu was still here, and said with some surprise: "You still talk about not seeing her before, but now that you're back, you don't go to accompany you, what are you still doing here?"
Jia Baoyu walked to the position in front of Daiyu and sat down, and said with a smile: "There is one thing to discuss with the ancestor."
"What's the matter?"
"About the dowry that Uncle Lin left to Sister Lin......"
As soon as Jia Baoyu said this, Jia Mu didn't say anything, and Mrs. Wang suddenly moved and called "Baoyu" softly.
Jia Baoyu turned around and smiled at Mrs. Wang, as if she didn't understand what Mrs. Wang meant, and still said: "I heard that Second Brother Lian said that before Uncle Lin died, he left all the family property and family business to Sister Lin as a dowry, and asked Second Brother Lian to bring it back, and the grandson thought, Sister Lin is so young, I'm afraid that I can't take care of so much property, I'm afraid that this matter will have to be affected by the ancestors, so I will take care ......of Sister Lin first."
Rongxi Hall is also saying the same thing.
After listening to Jia Lian's report, Jia Zheng asked in a deep voice, "According to what you said, how much is it worth?"
Jia Lian said respectfully: "The Lin family's clan sacrifice field, as well as some ancestral property, have been returned to the Lin clan. In addition, Aunt Lin's funeral cost a total of more than 100,000 taels of silver, and the rest was worth at least more than 500,000 taels of silver.
Aunt Lin made a will before her death, saying that half of it would be reserved for Sister Lin's dowry when she left the cabinet in the future, and the other half should be regarded as honoring the kindness of the ancestors to raise Sister Lin. ”
Jia Zheng sighed when he heard this: "It's a pity, the Lin family is the fifth generation of liehous, how did it get to his lineage, even the incense was broken."
Regarding the Lin family's property, you have to go back to the old lady, see what her old man says, let's just do it. ”
"Yes......"
Jia Lian then left Rongxi Hall, and first went to his courtyard to prepare to change into regular clothes and then go to see Jia's mother. When he got home, except for a few maids, Wang Xifeng and Ping'er were not there, and he was immediately a little displeased.
Other people's mother-in-law, who has been separated from her husband for so long, heard that her husband is back, isn't Baba looking forward to it at home?
"Where's your grandmother?"
Jia Lian said to the two maids who were changing her clothes.
"Grandma and Sister Heping were in the old lady's house before, and then the old lady asked to prepare dinner, and this time I guess I will be busy in the back kitchen!"
"Busy, busy! Could it be that if the two of them are left in this house, everyone else will die? ”
Jia Lian scolded.
The maid immediately didn't dare to say more.
To say that Jia Lian is not a short-tempered person, but he has been out for so long this time, it can be said that he came back from doing a big thing, and he was full of a lot of things to say to Sister Feng, but when he came back, he didn't see anyone for the first time, and he was unhappy for a while, so he hooked up the old things together.
"Hmph, in the past, you fought for power, but you just relied on the Wang family to bring some dowry, so I have to look at your face to act, this time, let's see, who should see whose face......"
Jia Lian thought secretly.
As soon as he thought of the harvest of this trip, he felt that the hard work he had endured for almost a year was also worth it.
was so proud, and saw two maids who wanted to eat before but couldn't get their mouths, where did they still have concerns, and took advantage of their unpreparedness, and hugged them and went to bed.
The two maids were shocked, they had been intimidated by Wang Xifeng's power for a long time, and they didn't dare to seduce Jia Lian at will, for fear of getting into trouble.
A maid was clever and took advantage of the chaos to escape.
"Little hoof, tell you to run, and clean you up sooner or later."
Jia Lian scolded indignantly. It was only because he alone couldn't restrain the two maids that he gave her a chance.
At this point, there was only one left, and it was easy to clean up.
"Second master, no, if grandma knows, she will kill me!"
"What are you afraid of, sooner or later, she will know how good I am until I smash this vinegar vat. Don't move, it's not a chick anymore, who will pretend to be this chaste to see? ……”
……
After a while, Jia Lian packed up and walked to Jia's mother's house.
While walking, I secretly thought, although these women in the family look shy, they are actually not very interesting to play, far inferior to those Yangzhou thin horses.
For a while, I thought of the kung fu he quietly brought back to the girl's bed, and I couldn't help but feel that my legs were weak, but I still felt itchy, and secretly said in my heart: Forget it today, Ming'er will definitely find an opportunity to hurt her well......
Thinking so, he soon came to Jia's mother's house, but saw Jia's mother and Mrs. Wang waiting for him, except for the mandarin duck, there was not a single superfluous maid next to him. I want to talk about "The Nobles of the Red Mansion" with more like-minded people, " ", talk about life, and find confidants~
