At two o'clock in the afternoon, Jia Cong returned to Yangzhou City with his relatives who had been traveling for two days and entered the Yanzheng Yamen.

A row of carriages stopped in front of the second gate, the mothers-in-law of the Lin family brought footstools, and the maids who got off the carriage first came to serve the girls to get off the car.

After getting out of the car, Ben still had a soft sedan carried inside.

However, Jia Cong said: "It's good to walk more, sitting all day long, and eating so much is not good for your health." ”

This caused a coquettish voice.

In the past two days, I walked too much in Daming Temple and was too tired, and the girls inevitably had a better appetite and ate an extra bowl of rice.

Where is it to eat so much?

Daiyu is especially sensitive, because she was stimulated this morning, so she ate half a bowl of porridge more than usual, who would have thought that this bad guy would mock again!

After Jia Cong and a group of girls "sneered" for a while, he suddenly said to Xiaohong: "Xiaohong, you can prepare and go out with me for a while." ”

These words made the naughty atmosphere around him fade down suddenly, and a pair of "wonderful eyes" stared at Xiaohong.

Xiaohong almost called out wronged......

Among the girls around Jia Cong, Xiaohong is a very special one.

She and Chunyan were the first to serve by Jia Cong's side, but she was different from Chunyan.

Chunyan fell in love with Jia Cong when she was a child, liked him, felt sorry for him, and was willing to give Jia Cong all the private money she had been accumulating since she was on an errand, so that he could buy a gift Thank you, Mr., and didn't want him to lose face.

However, Xiaohong understands her position very well, she is a maid and does not do delusions.

It's not that she doesn't like Jia Cong, but the family education, that is, the education of Lin Zhixiao's family, made her understand that there is more than love in life, and feelings are not all in life.

Therefore, when Jia Cong had to leave the mansion to live in Shangshu Mansion, Chunyan, Qingwen and other girls followed, but Xiaohong did not go.

Because her roots are in Rongguo Mansion.

Although she has also accompanied the bed and served Jia Cong to bathe, when getting along with her, Jia Cong has always been decent, because Xiaohong will not take the initiative, let alone him.

Xiaohong's bed companion is to take care of Jia Cong to drink water or get up at night, and the bath is only to help Jia Cong wipe her back, and Jia Cong does not let her scrub the front, and even does not need her to wear underwear.

This distance has always been kept just right, without losing its duty.

Because the extremely smart Xiaohong understands that it is difficult to have a place for her by Jia Cong's side.

Even if there were, it was very insignificant......

In terms of color, although she is not bad, where can she compare to Qingwen and Xiangling?

In terms of old love, she is not as good as Chunyan......

There is another reason why she has never spoken, and that is......

She felt that the treasure girl of the Xue family didn't like her.

Xiaohong didn't know why, she even felt wronged, but she could clearly feel that Baochai was alienated and disliked her......

In this way, Xiaohong also paid more attention to the distance from Jia Cong.

Jia Cong has no regrets about her approach, but is happy to see it happen.

He never imagined that all the girls around him liked him, and even if they liked him, they didn't necessarily have to follow him.

He can't give happiness to so many people......

For example, Xiaohong, Jia Cong likes her very much, this kind of liking has nothing to do with men and women, but only appreciates her independence, and her own responsibility for herself and her own pursuits.

This kind of smart person is easy to get along with, and Jia Cong believes that if Xiaohong is a man, then she will definitely be better than most people.

In fact, this relationship between the two is also understood by other girls, and they are happy to see it.

But I don't understand, why did I suddenly look at each other......

Even Daiyu looked at Jia Cong curiously......

Jia Cong smiled calmly: "There are some things that need Xiaohong's help, Xiaohong will be promoted in the future, not only the girl next to me, but also the housekeeper girl of our family!" In the future, she will be the same as her father, but she will have much more power than her father, and she will get two monthly payments. ”

Chunyan and the others stepped forward to congratulate Xiaohong with joy, and Xiaohong was also smiling.

Although there is always a regret in my heart, it is not sad, and after smiling at Jia Cong, I thank you.

In the face of Qingwen taking Xiaojiaoer and other little girls to shout to invite the host, she also generously agreed.

Jia Cong stood aside and watched this scene, smiling.

This smile fell in Daiyu's eyes, and she only felt as clean and clear as the sun, and it was also a little dazzling.

……

"What, how so?"

After Daiyu and Jia Cong came back, they first went to the main room to visit Lin Ruhai, who was still in a coma, but before they entered the door, they heard Aunt Yue crying, saying that her mother's son was gone, and there were no brothers and sisters in her family, so she wanted to go home to take care of her relatives and mourn, and keep filial piety for a few more years to serve her mother.

Daiyu is the most soft-hearted, her eyes are red after hearing the news, where can she say a word?

Not only that, but also concerned: "Where did my aunt take care of me alone?" You can bring a few more old grandmothers back to help. After the funeral, you can also pick up the old lady to spend the day together. There are only a few people in our family, and there are not so many rules......"

Hearing this, Aunt Yue looked at Daiyu for a while and didn't speak, just cried, and Jia Cong heard a little guilt in this cry......

Daiyu persuaded for a while before persuading, Aunt Yue took Daiyu's hand, and said with red eyes: "That's not it, it's not like this, it will make people laugh at the Lin family for having no rules, even if the girl is kind-hearted and not afraid, she has to think about her wife......"

If Aunt Yue took her old lady to the Lin family to raise, although she did not have the name of a wife, she would have the reality of a wife.

If she is corrected, it will be fine, but if she does this without a name or a point, others will not only laugh at her, but also laugh at Lin Ruhai's deceased wife Jia Min.

Hearing her say this, Daiyu naturally couldn't persuade anymore, but she missed Aunt Yue's kindness more and more.

Aunt Yue took Daiyu's hand and didn't let go, and told a lot of words with tears, and Daiyu also had tears rippling when she said it.

Originally, the two planned to wait for the imperial court to send a new salt patrol imperial history, so they took Lin Ruhai to Beijing together and relied on each other.

But now......

Seeing that Daiyu was crying more and more, Jia Cong had to step forward and persuaded gently: "If it is a nearby family, at most, I will only let my aunt go home to visit one or two, and I will not allow my aunt to take care of her relatives outside for a long time, the rules are like this." Sister Kelin, you have a good heart, since you have accepted your aunt's invitation, you should bless her. The days ahead are still long, so there's no need to rush for the next year or two, right? ”

Hearing this, Daiyu's tears were slightly restrained, and she entered with Aunt Yue again, witnessing Aunt Yue kowtowing sincerely in front of Lin Ruhai's bed, and tears flowed down again.

For her, apart from Lin Ruhai, Aunt Yue, who has always cared for her, is really her only relative in the Lin family.

Except for Aunt Yue, Aunt Qiu, who has always been indifferent and silent, is not a relative.

However, she couldn't stop it.

By the time Aunt Yue had to leave, Daiyu was already crying and couldn't walk.

Zijuan, who heard the news, took care of her, and Jia Cong personally sent Aunt Yue out.

Out of the main courtyard, Jia Cong's face became indifferent, he looked at Aunt Yue and said: "I know you must have a hard time, the An family may threaten you with someone or something you care about very much, if you come to tell me when they threaten you, things will be a completely different situation, but unfortunately you don't." Do you have something to say now? ”

When Aunt Yue heard this, she looked at Jia Cong with a snow-white face, opened her mouth, and closed it again.

Jia Cong nodded and said, "Then let's go, you can bring more money and the people you are used to, the An family behind the calculation, or the Zhen family behind the An family, you don't have to worry." ”

"Brother ......"

When Aunt Yue heard this, her face was moved and she shouted excitedly.

If there is no An family and the Zhen family, what is she afraid of?

Jia Cong only shook his head and turned to go in.

Whatever the reason, if you sell once, you will have a second time.

Jia Cong will not be soft-hearted on this.

He can give infinite tenderness to those around him.

But when dealing with irrelevant people, even if he faces the life and death of others, Jia Cong may not blink his eyes.

……

"Okay, stop crying."

Jia Cong can somewhat understand Daiyu's state of mind at this time, lonely and sad.

She seems to be unforgiving, but her mind is softer than anyone else.

Zijuan didn't listen to the persuasion, Jia Cong could only go into battle in person: "Auntie, her son is gone, her mother is alone, she has no brothers and sisters, she can't ......"

Before he finished speaking, he saw Daiyu raise a tearful face, looked at Jia Cong and said angrily: "You still coax me, you don't know that my aunt is long gone, and she still has two brothers?" ”

“……”

After being silent for a while, Jia Cong kept looking at Daiyu's eyes, and when she saw that she didn't give an inch, she frowned: "What did she tell you?" ”

No, the tea lady told him, and Aunt Yue assured her that Daiyu didn't know about these things.

Before Jia Min was alive, she and Daiyu didn't even talk much.

Jia Min is gone, and Daiyu will go to Beijing.

Although Lin Ruhai is seriously ill this time, Daiyu has been back for more than a year, but Daiyu has been depressed and sad, where will she talk about these family things?

So how did she know?

Daiyu burst into tears with red eyes, looked at Jia Cong with disappointed eyes, bit the corner of her lip and said, "It's not what she told me, it's what I knew when I heard her chatting with others before." Third brother, how can you lie to me? What's going on? ”

When Jia Cong heard this, he rubbed his eyebrows, there was no other way but to euphemistically tell Aunt Yue about the collusion between Aunt Yue and the Bai family and even the Zhen family behind her: "She shouldn't have bad intentions towards you, but just revealed my whereabouts and what I did at home." Moreover, most of the time someone coerced her. ”

Seeing that after Daiyu heard this, she sat there expressionlessly, her eyes were frozen, Mo said that Zijuan cried out loud, Jia Cong was inevitably distressed when she saw it, stepped forward and patted Daiyu's thin shoulder, and said softly: "Okay, it's not like this." In all fairness, Aunt Yue has always done a good job for you. Even when you leave, you are most concerned. Originally, I was hesitant to assume that this had not happened. Because the rotten crabs and stinky shrimp of the Bai family and the Zhen family can't set off the storm at all. It's just that then I thought about it, there can be white lies in small things, but in such things it is better not to lie to you. So in the end, I still asked Aunt Yue to leave. ”

Daiyu finally moved, she lowered her head, and asked in a sad voice, "Why is this?" ”

Jia Cong thought for a while and said, "I thought that you would definitely think that she was betraying, even if she didn't betray you in fact, but she also betrayed you emotionally, after all, I am your cousin...... And your girl's heart is as pure as crystal, and it can't tolerate impure feelings, even if it's family affection. There is no airtight wall in the world, and instead of making you vomit blood after learning the news in the future, it is better to turn a long pain into a short pain. I also believe that you will not be too cruel and too long to be sad for an impure person, because it is too unworthwhile. ”

When Daiyu heard this, she didn't speak, the handkerchief in her hand was loosened, and she unconsciously put it on her legs, folding it over and over again.

The eyes blinked and blinked, but no more tears.
