In the next few days, Lin Daiyu stayed by Lin Ruhai's side almost every day, taking care of Lin Ruhai's diet and medication, wanting to make up for the regret of not being filial to his father for many years.

Lin Ruhai's mood has also improved a lot recently, letting go of everything and spending a lot of time with her daughter every day.

In the past few days, his body has recovered very quickly, and he is also very concerned about Daiyu.

During this period, he summoned Mama Wang and Xue Yan, and wanted to ask them clearly about Daiyu's real situation in Jiafu in recent years, after all, the rumors of the Jia family are exaggerated and untrue.

Although Xue Yan has been following Daiyu for the longest time, she is simple-minded and not very clever, and she failed to understand the deep meaning of Lin Ruhai's words, and only talked about Daiyu's daily life in Jiafu.

Mama Wang was able to be sent to Lin Daiyu by Lin Ruhai at the beginning, naturally it was not a simple role, and she had experienced a lot of things, so she naturally understood that Lin Ruhai wanted to ask if the Jia family had treated Lin Daiyu harshly, but her mentality had changed a little in the past few years.

In the past few years, Mama Wang has stayed in Rongfu, seeing that everyone in the Jia family is openly and secretly reaping benefits from Jiafu, and almost everyone has saved a lot of money.

In private, some subordinates wear gold and silver, and their lives are better than those of their masters.

She really envied the life of the Jia family, thinking that if the girl could marry into the Jia family, she could also take the opportunity to make some benefits.

Therefore, after Mama Wang understood what Lin Ruhai meant, she felt that this was just an opportunity, so she praised Shi Taijun's love for Daiyu.

also exaggerated the relationship between Baoyu and Daiyu, saying that the two were childhood sweethearts, had deep feelings, and were inseparable from each other.

"When the girl first entered Jiafu, she lived in the old lady's house with Bao Erye, and there was only a hall in the middle."

"Although the rooms have been divided in the past few years, the girl and Bao Erye are still eating at the same table every day, playing together, and they are more intimate than when they were young."

"Bao Er Ye always thinks about the girl, and sometimes before the girl gets up, Bao Er Ye is in a hurry to see the girl's ......."

When Lin Ruhai heard this, her heart tightened, and she interrupted her words angrily, and asked, "You didn't stop him?" ”

Mama Wang was startled, Mu Ran woke up, what did this matter hinder the girl's reputation, and hurriedly threw the pot to Shi Taijun: "The old lady personally explained that the girl and Bao Erye are still young, and they are relatives, and they have grown up together, so there is no need to avoid those rules!" ”

"Bastards, men and women are on guard, take precautions, eat at separate tables, sit with each other, and don't live in a place."

"I handed over the girl to you to take care of, and you actually let the Jia family do such a thing that damages the girl's reputation!" Lin Ruhai said angrily in a cold voice, her daughter's reputation was all ruined by the Jia family.

Mama Wang hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "Master spare your life, Second Master Bao is the master, and the old slave is a slave, even if you want to, you can't stop it!" ”

Lin Ruhai thought about Daiyu's reputation, his mind was even more depressed, and he looked coldly at Mama Wang, who was kneeling on the ground, and asked if the two had done anything rude.

"The girl and the second master Bao have always been polite and self-denying, and they have never done anything rude!" Mama Wang didn't dare to say anything, and hurriedly excused the two, if the girl behaved inappropriately, I was afraid that the master would kill her alive.

Lin Ruhai continued to ask about some details, and was extremely dissatisfied with Shi Taijun's behavior of doting on Baoyu, not being restrained, and ignoring Daiyu's reputation, so the two of them did not do anything against etiquette, which made him feel relieved.

Mama Wang saw Lin Ruhai's angry face, and she swallowed nervously and spit, busy burying the Jia family's bad things about Daiyu in her heart.

Especially before Daiyu came back, he didn't dare to talk about the rumors in Jiafu to Lin Ruhai.

That night, Jia Lian asked to see Lin Ruhai and took out the letter written by Shi Taijun to Lin Ruhai.

Lin Ruhai didn't react much when he saw the content of the letter, he had already learned about it from Jia Zheng's letter.

He sighed in his heart, the Jia family really thought that he was going to plant, if he really couldn't do it, the Jia family would do this, although it would make him feel uncomfortable, but for the sake of Daiyu, he might still cooperate with the Jia family, after all, they did it, no matter what the purpose was, it was also for Daiyu's consideration.

Jia Lian didn't know the specific content of the letter, but when he came, he listened to the words of the old lady, the eldest master, and the second wife, and knew that they must be planning the Lin family's wealth.

He saw that Lin Ruhai's health was a little bad, and he seemed to be dying, maybe because of Sister Lin, Uncle Lin seemed to have improved slightly in the past few days, but he didn't know how many days he could last.

Jia Lian was afraid that Lin Ruhai would be stimulated by this, so he was angry and angry, and he was dying.

He lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Lin Ruhai, after all, anyone would be angry about this matter, but he couldn't help it, the old lady had to let him do it, so he could only bite the bullet.

Lin Ruhai sighed, seeing Shi Taijun's assurance that he would treat Daiyu well, the complaint against the Jia family in his heart was slightly reduced.

After all, the Jia family didn't know the inside story of this matter, and when they saw the dangerous situation in the capital, they proposed this method, which was also a painstaking effort for Daiyu.

However, since the Jia family has such a plan, they definitely need the cooperation of the Zhen family, so Lin Ruhai asked, "Does the Zhen family know about this?" ”

Jia Lian hurriedly replied: "I know! ”

"You've already informed the Zhen family?" Lin Ruhai asked.

"My nephew hasn't seen anyone from the Zhen family yet, but when my nephew set off from Beijing, the second wife said that the Zhen family knew about it, and asked me to go to the people of the Zhen family to discuss this matter after I arrived in Jiangnan!"

Jia Lian didn't want to take the blame for Mrs. Wang, so he was busy telling what he knew.

Lin Ruhai thought for a while, and decided to drag this matter first, so that the Zhen family could think about it, and the Zhen family in the province would attack him and Daiyu, and when the dust settled on this matter, he was talking to the Jia family in detail.

"I already know about this matter, I'll think about it for a few days, and then I'll give you an answer, you go down and rest first!"

"If the Zhen family asks, you say I'm thinking about it!"

Jia Lian saw that Lin Ruhai was not as angry as he imagined, and he was quite puzzled.

However, if he was amnesty at the moment, he didn't care about anything else, and hurriedly said: "Then the nephew will go down first, and the uncle must also take care of his health." ”

Jia Lian looked at Lin Ruhai's signal, and hurriedly withdrew, he didn't want to stay in it for a moment, feeling too much pressure, and at the same time a little ashamed.

After Jia Lian left, Lin Ruhai fell into deep thought for the letter, not knowing whether this matter was the Zhen family's plan or the Jia family's own intentions.

If it was the Zhen family's plan, the Jia family agreed so easily, it was too easy to be manipulated.

He tried his best to split the relationship between the Jia family and the Zhen family, and if the Jia family acted like this at this time, his previous efforts would be wasted.

If it is the Jia family's own will, it is difficult for them to really consider Daiyu, although some people in the Jia family do not like Daiyu, but the old lady and the second brother-in-law are a little sincere to Daiyu.

Lin Ruhai finally decided that when the dust settles on the Jiangnan side, he will discuss the marriage of Daiyu and Baoyu with Lao Taijun and solve the problem of Jia Wang's family.

will also explain to the Jia family the reason why he caused a storm in Jiangnan, so that the Jia family will reduce their contacts with the Zhen family in the future.

The next day, Lin Ruhai directly sent Mama Wang out, and with his eyesight, he could already see that Mama Wang had not served Daiyu wholeheartedly in the past few years.

He sends people to Jiafu every year to give gifts, and the giver can't see Daiyu, but he can see Mama Wang every time, if Mama Wang had spread these news earlier, he wouldn't have realized it later, so that Daiyu had been wronged for so many years, and his daughter's reputation was ruined, and he could only marry his daughter to the Jia family.

As for Xue Yan's dedication to serving Daiyu over the years, Lin Ruhai asked her to continue to stay by Daiyu's side.

It's just that he looks at the powerful maids beside Daiyu, Zijuan and Chunxian are both subordinates of Jiafu, and the deed of sale is in the hands of the Jia family, if something happens to Daiyu in the future, how can they be towards their daughters.

Therefore, Lin Ruhai carefully selected two big maids and four little maids for Daiyu.

These newly selected maids are all sons of the Lin family, and they have served the Lin family for several generations, not only loyal, but also knowledgeable.

"Slave maid meet the girl!"

The two big maids selected by Lin Ruhai, Hongqi and Xiangqiao, brought four little maids to Lin Daiyu to see her.

Hongyu used to be Lin Daiyu's companion maid, she followed Lin Daiyu when she was a child, and this time she returned to Lin Daiyu to serve, and she was also very happy in her heart.

"Get up!" Lin Daiyu looked at the few maids that her father had newly selected for her, except for a red lotus that she was familiar with, the others were a little unfamiliar.

After a few words, she asked Chunxian and Xue Yan to arrange their accommodation.

Lin Daiyu was very shrewd, and from the two things that her father drove Mama Wang out of the house and chose the maid around her again, she knew that her father already knew about her in Jiafu.

She guessed that there should be a gap between her father and her grandfather's family, otherwise her father would not have expressed his distrust of Zijuan and Chunxian so obviously.

She watched Zijuan become silent day by day, and her eyes were red from crying several times, and she sighed secretly in her heart.

In the past few years that Lin Daiyu has been in Jiafu, only Zijuan has served her wholeheartedly, and she is often secretly grateful to Zijuan in her heart, and she has never treated Zijuan as a subordinate.

Seeing Zijuan sad at this time, Lin Daiyu directly called Zijuan to her room and comforted: "Although you and I are nominally inferior and inferior, what do I think of you, you should also know that I have treated you as a subordinate over the years!" ”

Seeing that Zijuan's eyes regained their brilliance, Lin Daiyu continued: "When I was at my grandmother's house, I was surrounded by you as a person who knew cold and hot, you treated me well, and I always treated you as a sister. ”

"You don't have to think about it, although my father said that he sent someone new, but we have been in love for many years, and no one can replace your position."

Zijuan is also a person with a clear mind, she can see that Lin Ruhai does not trust them, the maids from the Jia family, and thinks that she has served Daiyu with all her heart in the past few years, but now she is disliked by the Lin family, and she feels a little aggrieved.

Although she was given Daiyu by the old lady, her deed of sale has always been held in the old lady's hand, and she hated herself deeply for not being able to help herself, so she locked herself in the room several times and secretly wept.

Zijuan listened to Daiyu's sincerity at the moment, knowing that the girl was really treating her well, and she had never doubted her, all the grievances in her heart disappeared in an instant, and only Daiyu was full of gratitude.

"The slave knows her identity, and being able to serve the girl is Zijuan's greatest blessing, and the slave only thinks about this life, so she follows the girl and serves the girl for the rest of her life."

Lin Daiyu was moved when she heard this, and said angrily: "I can delay you for a lifetime, and when you want to get married, I will go to my grandmother, redeem your deed of sale, and find you a wishful husband." ”

Zijuan listened to Daiyu teasing her, a little ashamed, and hurriedly explained: "Where is the delay, although the old man has newly assigned someone to the girl, but how can we know the roots of the girl who have served the girl for several years, the slave and maid are afraid that others will not serve the girl well, and the girl will be sad!" ”

"Where am I as delicate as you say!"

Lin Daiyu thought of her caution in Rongfu in the past few years, as well as her often sick body, and her heart was a little depressed.

Zijuan looked at the girl's sad face, knowing that her words touched the girl's heart, and hurriedly comforted: "The girl is back in her own house now, and the master has arranged everything for the girl very well, and the girl doesn't have to think too much, just rest assured that she will nourish her body and bones." ”

Lin Daiyu was even more worried when she heard this, although her father kept saying that she didn't have to worry, but so many things happened in the Lin family, how could she turn a blind eye and listen to it, but she didn't want to trouble her father, so she didn't ask in detail.
