Chapter 2 The Lotus Tongue
After Jia Lian promised Lin Ruhai to escort Lin Daiyu to Rongguo Mansion, for several days, Lin Ruhai did not notify the schedule of when to leave, but Jia Lian was not in a hurry, and he no longer went out all day long, but first familiarized himself with all the living habits of the ancients in Lin Mansion, and then thought about his future vision.

In fact, in a real sense, the next is not only Lin Daiyu's first time going to Rongguo Mansion, but now Jia Lian is also the first time to truly integrate into the world of Jiafu in the Red Mansion.
On this day, Jia Lian was bored in the room, so he drove away his entourage and went to the back garden of the Lin Mansion alone for a walk.
Lin Ruhai is a salt patrol royal history, controlling the salt tax and heavy profits, although he will not be corrupt and bribe-taking, but it is also a big fat difference, so the back garden of the Lin Mansion covers a large area, and the scenery is pleasant.
Unconsciously, Jia Lian walked to the depths of the garden, but suddenly there was a melodious sound of the piano in his ears.
Jia Lian listened carefully, and it was obvious that two people were playing together, and only one person's piano sound was stirring and melodious, like mountains and flowing water; The other person's piano sound was tactful and smart, and there were bursts of sad sounds.
Those who can play the piano at will in this Lin Mansion must not be ordinary people in the Lin Mansion.
Because he was curious and had nothing to do, Jia Lian followed the sound of the qin, and after a few turns, Jia Lian found the place where the sound of the qin came from, it was the two of them playing in an ensemble, and there were a few maids and wives standing next to them.
I saw that one person was a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, and I saw her two bent eyebrows, and a pair of eyes that seemed to be crying but not crying; The sorrow of the two souls, the sickness of the coquettishness; Tears are dotted, and the panting is slight; When it is quiet, it is like a beautiful flower shining on the water, and the action is like a weak willow supporting the wind; The heart is more than the dry, and the disease is like Xizi winning three points; Smart and delicate, beautiful, temperamental, elegant and fairy, charming and charming.
Although she is still young, she will be a first-class beauty in the foreseeable future.
It's not the first time Jia Lian has seen Lin Daiyu, but Jia Lian before only longed to see his cousin a few times, how could he have seen it so carefully today.
Looking at the other person, it was a middle-aged man, who was born with a round waist and a thick back, a wide face and a square mouth, a straight nose and cheeks, and a good look, it was Jia Yucun, Lin Daiyu's teacher.
At the end of the song, Jia Lian no longer hid it at the moment, strode out, clapped his hands and praised: "Okay, Sister Lin's piano playing is really good." ”
Lin Daiyu suddenly heard the strange man's, and was startled at the moment, turned her head to see that it was Jia Lian, and her face recovered a little, only to see her stand up and salute a little, and said: "The original brother Lian, but I also just learned the piano, where is there a gentleman who plays it well." ”
Jia Lian laughed and said, "Mr. Jia's piano is naturally good, otherwise how can he be Sister Lin's teacher." ”
At this time, Jia Yucun, who had already stood up, had the opportunity to interject: "Childe smiled, the skills of the three-legged cat in Yucun have long been gradually unable to teach Son-in-law Lin." ”
It turned out that Jia Yucun had already received a letter of recommendation from Lin Ruhai at this time, although Jia Lian didn't see any real power, but after all, he was a descendant of the Jia family, and he wanted to go to Kyoto and asked for the Jia family, so his tone was extremely humble at this time.
Since someone voluntarily bowed low and made a small man, Jia Lian had no reason to be arbitrarily powerful in other people's homes, so he casually exchanged a few words with Jia Yucun at the moment.
Unconsciously, Jia Lian asked why Lin Daiyu didn't want to go to Rongguo Mansion to see her grandmother, only to hear Lin Daiyu say: "It's not that I don't know how to honor my grandmother, it's just that my grandmother has just passed away, and my father is naturally depressed, so he doesn't want to leave his relatives." ”
Jia Lian didn't know how Lin Ruhai persuaded Lin Daiyu to leave in the original book, but through the understanding of countless red fans, they all came to the conclusion that Lin Ruhai's situation at this time was like a storm, and it was difficult to protect himself under the pressure of several major forces, so it caused Jia Min to suddenly 'die', if Lin Daiyu didn't leave, it was conceivable that her mother's ending would not be far away.
Moreover, Lin Ruhai was in a hurry at this time, if he let go of Lin Daiyu's burden early, he might be able to survive this catastrophe.
After paying attention, Jia Lian suddenly said to Jia Yucun: "Sir, can you avoid one or two first, I have something I want to say to my cousin alone." ”
Jia Yucun naturally didn't dare to refuse, and left with his fists in his hands.
Then Jia Lianyou went on to drive away all the maids and mothers-in-law next to her, jokes, who knows which force outside they will be the eyes and ears of, the so-called caution is not a big mistake.
It's just that in this way, Jia Lian and Lin Daiyu are alone, which suddenly makes Lin Daiyu a little uncomfortable.
I only heard her say: "Brother Lian, you can't say anything to others, otherwise you wait for my father to come back and tell my father, I'm a little unwell, I have to go back to the room first." After speaking, Lin Daiyu turned around and wanted to leave.
When Jia Lian saw that Lin Daiyu was leaving, he forgot about the male and female defense of this society in a hurry, and reached out to hold Lin Daiyu's arm, only to feel that the little hand was warm and silky.
"Brother Lian! What are you doing! Lin Daiyu was immediately angry.
Jia Lian then remembered that he seemed to be in an ancient society, even if his cousin and cousin were too old, it was taboo to hold their hands, so he quickly let go of his hand and explained urgently: "Sister Lin, listen to me, forgive my brother for being unreasonable in a hurry." ”
"Humph!" Lin Daiyu was angry and didn't want to leave this Meng Lang cousin, but finally left without raising her leg for the sake of her own cousin.
Jia Lian touched his nose in embarrassment, but fortunately, the cheekiness of the civil servants in later generations also made him careless, and only heard him say: "Sister, do you know why your uncle must let you go to Kyoto to see your ancestors?" ”
Speaking of this, Lin Daiyu suddenly turned sad and said: "Dad said, I am young, and now I have no maternal upbringing, and I have no sisters to support me, so let me go to my grandmother and uncle's sisters." ”
"Then why don't you go?"
I saw that Lin Daiyu was already in tears at this time, and said with a sob: "I know that my father is for my good, but my mother has just left, if I leave my father, my father must be even more uncaring, so how can I be in the mood to go to my grandmother and uncle to be happy, it is natural that I should be filial piety under my father's knees." ”
Jia Lian didn't expect Lin Daiyu to be such a pure filial piety, and she didn't know how she was finally persuaded to leave in the original world, but since she was involved in it, she naturally wouldn't stand by like this, and after thinking about it, she only heard him say: "Sister, you only know one thing and don't know the other, I'm afraid you don't know it yet, but the real intention of my uncle asking you to leave is to save your life!" ”
When Lin Daiyu suddenly heard Jia Lian say this, she was immediately shocked and said hurriedly: "How can Brother Lian say this?" ”
Jia Lian replied: "Even so, I will tell my sister some of my guesses, I think my sister also heard about my wandering around the world some time ago. ”
Lin Daiyu nodded when she heard this, she naturally heard some rumors about her cousin occasionally, but she couldn't figure out why Jia Lian was saying this now.
I only heard Jia Lian continue: "Uncle Tanhua's talent, originally a doctor of Lantai Temple, is now appointed by the Holy Lord as the imperial history of the salt patrol, in charge of the salt tax, and the salt tax is the largest tax of all taxes, the conflict of interests can be imagined, for the huge benefits, the ability to fight for the people of nature are full of means, and the uncle is only loyal to the emperor's loyal minister, this aunt's death is also suspicious, if the sister does not leave now, it is naturally very dangerous, this is only one of them; Second, my uncle now only has my sister, and if my sister doesn't leave and is kidnapped by thieves, it will be tantamount to someone grabbing my uncle's weakness, and at that time, the lives of my sister's family will not be guaranteed. ”
These words are like a thunderbolt from the sky, where does Lin Daiyu have the opportunity to listen to these things in the boudoir on weekdays, but now she suddenly heard about these conspiracies and tricks outside, and she was suddenly frightened and overwhelmed.
Don't talk about her, a deep girl, even Lin Ruhai, who was hiding not far away, was also shocked by Jia Lian's words.
It turned out that as soon as Lin Ruhai returned home, he heard that Jia Lian and his own daughter were talking alone in the back garden, in view of Jia Lian's bad reputation on weekdays, so he hurried over, and happened to hear Jia Lian's last words, and the image of Jia Lian's son was completely reversed. I forgot to go out for a meeting.
"Brother Lian, this, these are all inferences from your daily attention?"
"Yes, although the wine shop Qinglou is a ninth-rate place, but because of the mixed dragons and snakes but the most well-informed, I am a gentleman on weekdays, and many times people from all walks of life will not be too wary of me, so it is easier to get some news, and now I told my sister, and asked my sister not to be righteous anymore, and let my uncle not take care of it."
After half a ring, Lin Daiyu's mind was full of countless thoughts, and finally she just muttered: "Thank you Brother Lian for your kindness, this, this is just some speculation from my brother, I, I still won't leave." ”
Jia Lian didn't expect this persuasion to be so difficult, thinking about his own words, coupled with his bad reputation in the past, caused Lin Daiyu to have doubts.
Forget it, I can be regarded as doing my best, since it is useless to say more, then it is better to let it be.
Thinking of this, Jia Lian finally said: "What should be said for my brother has been said, and the rest of the sisters will decide for themselves, I'll go first." ”
After speaking, just as Jia Lian was about to leave, Lin Ruhai, who was behind the tree, appeared at this time and said, "Virtuous nephew, take a slow step." ”
Jia Lian and Lin Daiyu didn't expect Lin Ruhai to eavesdrop on the side, but fortunately, the two of them didn't do anything out of courtesy, and greeted together: "Daddy." "Uncle."
