On the twenty-ninth day, early in the morning, the Lin Mansion of South Street cleaned all the front and back of the house again, the house changed the door god, couplet, new oil peach charm, the lanterns under the eaves also changed a new pair, inside and out, from the front door to the back door, all the way to the red, jubilant.

The Jia family was so busy, Daiyu took her younger brother with her, and after Brother Wei learned to walk, he couldn't stop for a moment. Two grandmothers, three or four maids followed, but they couldn't take it well, for fear that he would fall, and they circled around, wishing that he wouldn't walk on the ground.

But Daiyu felt that it was always good to move more, so she drove away the people who followed the two, one big and one small hiding in the yard.

Xue Yan and Su Yan beside Daiyu are only five or six years old, and they are not very sensible, and they don't know much about the two little masters, and only in this way can Daiyu feel that she has fun and can make her younger brother happy.

When Lin Ruhai came back from the court, Jia Shi went back to the house and waited for him to change his clothes, and the two grandmothers took the person to the side room to wipe their backs with hot water, and separated their backs with cotton cloths. After everything was in order, Daiyu took her brother's hand and came to the main room, where her father and mother were sitting by the brazier drinking tea.

The water on the red clay stove is boiling, it is gurgling, there is smoke outside, and a tea set is placed on the side, Lin Ruhai scooped out the teaspoon of the best red robe, put it into the teapot, and the boiling water was flushed, the tea fragrance was permeated, and in the middle of the curling, I heard Lin Ruhai said, "Today, after the court, Mr. Xia specially asked people to keep me, passed on the emperor's message, and ordered you and I to enter the palace tomorrow to congratulate, and by the way, bring my sister and brother in, saying that the thirteen princes and the eaves brother are the same size, and they can play together." ”

This grace came too suddenly, and every year those who were qualified to enter the palace to congratulate only the three rank or above and the edict, and even some of the noble families who rarely appeared in the court, some did not have this dignity. Lin Ruhai is just a subordinate of the five grades, how can He De stand on the Linjing Hall with a cadre of important ministers?

Even Jia Shi thought it was incredible. As a young lady in the Guogong Mansion, she has seen such wealth when she was a child, but since the death of the grandfather of the country, the elder brother of the family has only attacked a first-class general, and he has always been a reluctant to operate, and the second brother is not up or down, and when he arrived at the Lin family, he was worried about his heirs for a year, two years or even more than ten years, and he didn't have those thoughts.

Now, gradually, the situation at home is getting better day by day.

The next day, Lin Ruhai wore court clothes, and the Jia family made up a lot according to the product, and dressed up Daiyu and Brother Eave, and when they arrived at the door and wanted to get in the car, they remembered that today the North Street side was going to come over to worship the ancestors and eat Chinese New Year's Eve.

This is the first time that Lin Ruhai and his wife have entered the palace to congratulate after they are in charge, and they are not too familiar with the etiquette, and they don't know how the palace will be arranged, so they can't help but feel worried.

"It's better to let Lin Gui go over there and say something, and see if the old lady is willing to wait over there or come to our side to wait. If you come, let the family be carefully settled, and wait until we come back. ”

The Jia family can only do this, who would have thought that there would suddenly be a will in the palace. It stands to reason that they should have told the North Street side yesterday, because the first time they encountered this kind of thing, they were also nervous in their hearts, and they forgot about it inadvertently.

Here, Lin Ruhai and his wife took the children into the palace. Lin Gui was ordered by his master to rush to North Street, and when he was halfway there, he met a carriage coming from North Street, with twenty or thirty people. The eldest lord Lin Rujiang rode a horse and served next to the old lady's sedan chair, and when he heard this, he was a little dumbfounded, "How can the palace let them go to the court?" ”

Also with kids!

Lin Rujiang was also anxious, and accidentally bit the word "they" a little harder, Lin Gui sounded like the old man felt that his old man and his little master should not enter the palace, but isn't this the meaning of the saint in the palace?

"The old lady and the lady didn't think that the saints in the palace would send down a decree, thinking that the old lady and the masters must all rush here, saying that if the old lady is happy, she will be placed in our house, and as if she is at home, so that the little ones will be served."

The frame stopped, waiting for the old lady to decide.

On this day, although the snow stopped, the wind was still whistling, and there were chopstick-long ice cubes hanging under the eaves, and there were few pedestrians on the street along the road.

The eldest lady and the others were sitting in the carriage, and they were also very unhappy when they heard this, what is this called. If you want to say it, it should have been divided a long time ago, but what the old lady is trying to do, Pang Zi also knows it, and he doesn't dare to say anything on weekdays.

Zhou sat in the old lady's car, with a brazier in it, in this cold winter moonlit day, it can only be said that talking is better than nothing, freezing to the ground, seeing that the old lady can't decide, he said, "It's almost here, according to the daughter-in-law, it's better to pass." The three of them are not at home, this is the New Year, and there is no one at home who can be open, let's go and do a favor, and the people outside also seem to be close to our two houses. ”

The old lady pondered for a moment, and finally, nodded approvingly, and the carriage and horse marched towards the Lin Mansion on South Street. Lin Gui, who was following him, was simply full of bitterness in his mouth.

Lin Ruhai's family separated at the gate of Jingde, Lin Ruhai went to Jingde Palace, and Jia took his three children to Taiming Palace. Fortunately, there was a special eunuch waiting at the door, prepared a big coat, took Jia's child over, wrapped it, and led her away.

It's not a good day, such a toss, if you change Daiyu's body before, I'm afraid that she will die before she reaches the ground. Now, she has her round eyes all the way, looking around, the red walls and golden tiles in the palace, the palaces are full of palaces, and the most noble scene in the world can not be described in one or two sentences.

At the gate of Taiming Palace, there are already many noble ladies waiting for them. When Jia and the others approached, the eunuch who had been guarding for a long time came over again, took the child from the previous person, and said to Jia with a smile, "Yiren is here, the queen mother and the mother are waiting, so Yiren brought the young lady and the son over, and went in." ”

Hearing this, they all looked at it with envy, and inquired about the identity of the Jia family, and there was an acquaintance who introduced, "The only concubine under the knee of the Duke of Rongguo Xian, and then married the son of the Marquis of Xuanping, and the previous conviction ordered Tanhua and now supervises the family of Lord Yushilin." ”

Everyone was stunned, but they didn't know where this Jia family got into the eyes of the saint, and they could have such blessings, and they remembered the scenery when Lord Lin was born in honor and was in the middle of the flowers, and they felt that if the saint reused the Lin family, it would be reasonable.

But I don't know that at this time, Jia's heart is full of apprehension, for fear that something will go wrong, really, this grace is too inexplicable.
