Chapter 8 Whitewashing

Although Aunt Lin was guarding against Jia Min's attack on Yang Wan, she was not worried about Lin Jin's personal safety. This is because if the Lin family now has ten or eight sons, Lin Jin's concubine is naturally insignificant, but unfortunately, there is not.

Under normal circumstances, at Lin Ruhai's age, not only does he hold his grandson, but his grandson should be older than Lin Jin, but he doesn't want to talk about holding his grandson at present, his only two sons are still three-headed, and one of them is still sick, and it is unknown whether he can grow up.

And all this, no matter what the reason, will eventually be blamed on Jia Min, who is his wife. And Jia Min's thoughts have not been able to get rid of the shackles of the idea of "there are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great" in this era, so for the sake of the Lin family's successor cigarettes, she has tossed a lot over the years.

Now that the Lin family finally has a child, although one of them was not born to her, it is also a male who can inherit the Lin family's cigarettes, and in this era, because of the high rate of child death, the child can only stand when he is seven or eight years old; Not to mention that her brother Mao has always been in poor health, so whether it is Lin Jin or Lin Mao, she doesn't dare to say that she can grow up smoothly now. In this case, she can't and will never make any small moves against Lin Jin.

Therefore, Aunt Lin not only did not worry about Lin Jin, but also did not approve of Yang Wan's rejection of Jia Min's overtures to Lin Jin and detained her in the East Courtyard instead of letting her go to the main courtyard. In her opinion, it was safer for Lin Jin to go to the main courtyard than to stay in the east courtyard.

I don't know how Aunt Lin persuaded Yang Wan, anyway, in the end, when Jia Min beckoned Lin Jin to go to the main courtyard again, Yang Wan didn't stop her.

In fact, these days, Lin Jin also saw Aunt Lin's defensiveness against Jia Min, but she felt that Aunt Lin was worried in vain. In her opinion, although Jia Min will be jealous because Lin Ruhai has other women, it is a little love between husband and wife, and she can't do this kind of thing to the concubines and heirs in the backyard. Perhaps, when she was young, she might not be able to tolerate Yang Wan and her concubine, but over the years, for the sake of her heirs, the pressure she had carried should have made her look down on these.

……

Lin Ru went home on a business trip, and when he came to the upper room, Lin Jin was playing with Daiyu and Brother Mao in the warm pavilion. After knowing that their father was back, the three of them were taken away, greeted Lin Ruhai, and were sent to the Huihui Pavilion to continue playing.

Holding a nine-link in her hand, Lin Jin was dual-minded, pretending to be playing, and listening to Jia Min and Lin Ruhai talking about Lin Ruhai's housework during this time when she was on business.

……

Jia Min said happily: "A while ago, my mother sent Mama Lai to see me, and I heard her say that my second brother's Zhu'er has ended this year, and she has won the first place in the county examination and the government examination. ”

Although the Lin family still doesn't know the results of Jia Zhu's college examination, under normal circumstances, the first student in the county examination and the government examination, even if he is not selected as the first in the college examination, there is no possibility of being deposed. Otherwise, you will be suspected of fraud in the imperial examination, and then it will be a big deal.

Lin Ruhai, who was born in the imperial examination and is now a student and politician in Jiangnan, knows this very well, and knows that Jia Zhu's reputation as a talent is stable, and he praised with a smile: "I remember that Zhu'er of the second brother-in-law's family is only fourteen years old this year, and she has already entered school. ”

After praising him, he suddenly remembered something, and asked with some confusion: "I remember that there is a place for the shadow prison under the name of the eldest brother-in-law, Lian'er doesn't like to study, and that quota is set aside there, why doesn't Zhu'er use it?"

If Zhu'er takes the path of the shadow prison and enters the country to study, she will not only make further progress in her studies, but also succeed in her career, which can save several years of work. ”

Yin Jian refers to the students who are the children of the third rank official or above or the children of the honorable relatives who are in prison to study. The "supervisor" here refers to the Guozijian, which is not only the highest institution of learning in the country, but also the place with the most classics for the imperial examination and the strongest teachers. Being able to enter the country to study can be said to be twice the result with half the effort for students who are interested in the imperial examination.

Although Jia Min was born in a noble family, she still knows some things about the imperial examination. You must know that Jia Jing of Ningguo Mansion was admitted to the Jinshi, and her second brother, Jia Zheng, originally planned to enter the military through the imperial examination. So, how could she not know the benefits of studying in the country?

Not only did she know, but Jia Yu and Jia Zheng also knew. It's just that Jia Zheng's room is useless, and he can send Jia Zhu to Guozijian to study.

But it's a pity that Jia Zheng's official rank is not enough, and the quota of the shadow prison is under Jia Yu's name. This quota Jia Yu pinched in his hands, even if Jia Lian didn't like to read, it was obviously not that material, and Jia Zhu's talent had already shown that he was a reading seedling, and he refused to let go.

Anyway, no matter what Jia Mu and Jia Zheng said, he just refused to agree to give the quota to Jia Zhu no matter what, and in the end, because he was worried that he would not be able to withstand the pressure of Jia Mu, he actually sold the quota.

Jia Yulai's trick not only worsened the contradiction between the two rooms, but also completely destroyed Jia Zhu's hope of entering the Guozi Prison through the shadow prison, so Jia Zhu could only take the exam by himself.

Jia Min felt ashamed of this, she didn't want to tell Lin Ruhai about her mother's dirt, and explained with a smile: "What you said makes sense, but Zhu'er doesn't want to." Zhu'er, a child with big ideas and high spirits, doesn't want to rely on the grace of his ancestors to enter the country, and wants to be admitted by his own strength. He felt that as the starting point of the imperial examination, if a small talent could not pass the examination, how could he talk about the future?

The family couldn't resist him, and felt that he was a little frivolous, thinking that he would see the students outside, knowing that there are people outside the world, and there is a truth outside the sky, so as not to know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, which is not bad. After all, even if he meets his head and bleeds now, after all, he is still young, and it is not too late to make amends.

Moreover, the second brother felt that if Zhu'er was admitted step by step, the foundation would be more solid; Besides, in addition to Zhu'er, there are many children in the clan who are studying, and if Zhu'er can pass the scientific examination and enter the prison, the quota saved can be distributed to other children in the clan.

Therefore, the family relented and let Zhu'er take the test by herself. Unexpectedly, this kid still had a little luck, and he actually passed the exam in one fell swoop. ”

Regarding Jia Min's behavior that Jia Zhu refused to rely on his family and had to take the test by himself, Lin Ruhai didn't say anything.

Whether it is studying or being an official, especially in the past few years as a scholar, he has seen many talented people like Jia Zhu, who are from rich backgrounds and young and talented.

Such a person, if life is smooth sailing, if there is a setback in the middle, often unable to accept the blow, easy to collapse.

He only hoped that Jia Zhu was not such a personality, otherwise, he would definitely have some hardships to suffer in the future. After all, life doesn't always go your way.

Although Jia Zhu's imperial examination was not as Jia Min said, Jia Zhu's character flaws were indeed as Lin Ruhai thought.

After hearing Jia Zheng's behavior, Lin Ruhai couldn't help but pat the table and praised: "The second brother-in-law is humble and kind, cherishes his clansmen, is public and forgetful, and has the legacy of his grandfather. Ruhai admired, admired, "shook his head, a look of shame," ashamed, "ashamed." ”

Jia Min's words made Lin Jin stunned. If it weren't for her "prediction" function and the fact that she got a lot of information from her and Mama Lai's words, she would definitely be like Lin Ruhai, blinded.

Originally, when she was watching the Red Mansion, she once complained that Lin Ruhai was stupid, and felt that Cao Da made Lin Ruhai's character unreasonable in order to let Daiyu go to Rongguo Mansion.

You must know that Lin Ruhai can pass the Tanhua examination, which means that he is definitely not stupid; has been an official for many years, and he can be reused by the emperor, and he was appointed to the important official position of patrolling the salt imperial history, which shows that his political literacy is not bad at all. Such a person must be sophisticated, how could he behave so naively in sending Daiyu to Rongguo Mansion?

Although some red scholars speculated that Lin Ruhai was in crisis at that time, so he sent his daughter to Yue's house for refuge, but this statement was not recognized by the authority and could not be convincing.

Now she finally understands the answer.

In Lin Ruhai's mind, the impression of Rongguofu should have been when he came to ask to marry Jia Min, and his father-in-law Jia Daishan was still there.

At that time, because of Jia Daishan's support, Rongguo Mansion was still one of the best families in Beijing; And even if Lin Ruhai is married to the Jia family, it is impossible to get along with the people of the Jia family for a long time, and the limited number of visits, even if there is anything wrong with the people of the Jia family, in front of him, the uncle, they will hide the bad side and try their best to show him the good side; In addition, there is the happy event of marrying a wife as a filter, so in Lin Ruhai's eyes, the people and things in Jiafu are very good.

After getting married, without waiting for Lin Ruhai to have more contact with Jia Fu, he was released from Beijing, and his impression of the Jia family after that almost all came from his wife Jia Min. And Jia Min was in front of Lin Ruhai, and he never refused to say half a word about his mother's family.

If there is a person who instills in his ear all day that Rongguo Mansion is good, and the person in Rongguo Mansion is better, and this person is still a pillow person he has always trusted, not to mention that Lin Ruhai originally had a good impression of the Jia family, even if he had a bad impression, after being brainwashed for so long, I am afraid that his impression will change.

When he came to Lin Ruhai, it was even better, so that in the end, he was afraid that Rongguo Mansion would be regarded as a "saint's house". In this case, when sending Daiyu to Rongguo Mansion, the performance is completely inconsistent with his IQ, which is completely understandable.

Looking at Jia Min who was talking to Lin Ruhai, Lin Jin sighed, what is the art of speaking? This is the art of speaking, originally a person with a pockmarked face and potholes, so that Jia Min's packaging suddenly became watery and tender.

She admired this skill. It's just that she couldn't help but complain: Jia Min, you are already suspected of cheating, do you know?

I know you don't want your husband to know about your mother's bullshit, and you feel ashamed, but you don't need to put powder on your mother's face like this, right? Today's cause, tomorrow's fruit, do you know that if you do this, it will be your daughter who will be pitted in the future?

Because Lin Ruhai didn't know that what you said was false, he believed it. After you died, he felt that since Rongguofu was as good as you said, he entrusted his daughter to them, and he was relieved, so that in the end, he killed your daughter. Did You Know?

Lin Jin understands Jia Min's mentality and understands her approach, but understanding and understanding does not mean approval.
