Chapter 0349: Concubine Xiande
Shangjing, Jiafu, backyard. Hearing the news that the Holy Lord had sealed the Lin Mansion again, Jia Mu was shocked and inexplicable.
A little happy, after all, Lin Daiyu is her own granddaughter, but more doubts, why? Why not give her precious grandson Jia Baoyu a seal?
"Old lady, this Granny Li is Baoyu's nurse and the old man of my Jia family, so even if Manager Chen respects the lesson, why can't Daiyu stop her as a junior? Like words? Mrs. Wang complained.
Jia Mu nodded: "It's not like that, but after all, Granny Li is not a member of the Lin family, and there are no rules to teach the master at will." In this way, the second daughter-in-law, wait for tomorrow morning, you will come to the door with heavy gifts and Granny Li to make amends. "Mrs. Wang is dumbfounded, she is an elder, why?
But thinking about the tens of thousands of taels of silver of the Lin family, as well as the title of that little girl, I can only endure it. Can people still care about money, is this like words?
"Yes, mother!"
"Then, old lady, do you want to send another mother-in-law to serve Miss Lin?" Wang Xifeng asked. Jia Mu thought for a while and waved her hand: "Forget it, since people don't let you take care of it, you will take care of it less, with the support of Mr. Chen, who can mess with this in the capital?" ”
"Dongdong Dong~" There was a sudden knock on the door outside.
"What's the matter?" Wang Xifeng asked impatiently. The maid Ping'er rushed in, panting and shouting loudly: "There is a will, there is a will!" ”
"What?" Jia Mu hurriedly got up, surprised and delighted. Could it be that the saint finally saw the merits of the Jia family's phoenix egg and came to reward it?
"Let's go, go and get the order!" The old lady, who usually trembles in her movements, walks faster than anyone else at this time.
Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng glanced at each other, also a little excited. The Jia family has not had the care of the Son of Heaven for too long.
Soon, the whole Jiafu had to remove the stage to watch the play, pause the banquet, set up the eucalyptus, and kneel together at the middle door to greet them.
After a while, Chief Manager Chen arrived on horseback, and there were many internal supervisors following him, and he was extremely powerful.
Chief Manager Chen did not take the edict and praised it, dismounted in front of the eaves, smiled on his face, walked to the hall, stood in the south, and said loudly: "Special purpose: immediately announce that Jia Zheng will enter the court and meet him in the Linjing Palace." After speaking, Manager Chen didn't even drink a sip of tea, and left on horseback.
Jia Yu and the others didn't know what this sign was, so they had to hurriedly change their clothes and enter the palace. Jia's mother and other families stayed at home and were all panicked, not knowing what was happening, and even kept sending people Pegasus to report to the gate of the palace.
After two hours of hard work, I suddenly saw Lai Da and other three or four housekeepers panting and running into the instrument door to report the good news.
"On the orders of the old man, please quickly ask the old lady to lead the lady and others into the court to thank you" Jia Mu was unsettled and stood under the corridor in the lobby.
Even all the things that I have done in my family over the years have been recalled, and the wife, young lady and Aunt Xue of the family are all in one place.
Hearing the news, Jia's mother called Lai Da into the house to ask for clues. Lai Da reported: "The little ones are only waiting outside the Linjing Gate, and they can't know any information inside. Later, a little eunuch came out to say goodbye, saying that the eldest lady of our family Yuanchun was named the Shangshu of Fengzao Palace, and she was crowned a virtuous concubine. Later, the old man came out and ordered the little ones to do the same. Now the old man went to the East Palace again, and quickly asked the old lady to lead the ladies to thank him. Jia Mu waited for this to calm down, and the others were instantly overjoyed.
Then the old lady led Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, You Shi and others, according to their respective grades, makeup and clothes, a total of four sedan chairs into the court.
Ning Rong was happy and enthusiastic in both places, inside and out, all of them were proud, laughing and laughing, and the voices were boiling.
On the way into the palace, in the sedan chair, Wang Xifeng asked in a low voice: "Old lady, do you want to take Granny Li to the Lin Mansion tomorrow to apologize?" Mother Jia glanced at her: "Recognize the current identity of our Jia family, the mother of the noble lady, the relatives of the Son of Heaven, from today on, we can't and will not apologize to anyone!" Since that Daiyu doesn't know what to do, then don't worry about her in the future! Wang Xifeng was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a moment and asked: "Then, old lady, the two manors that Your Majesty gave to the Lin Mansion, the sister-in-law wrote to entrust them, and they are still in our hands, saying that they will give us half of the income, do you want to return them?" Jia Mu hesitated for a while, and then asked, "How much silver do those two manors have a year?" ”
"There are more than 50 acres of fine fields, as well as orchards and mines, which add up to almost 5,000 taels a year!" Wang Xifeng said.
Jia Mu fell into deep thought: "Why can the Lin family's manor make so much money?" Our banker still has to lose money? Wang Xifeng was dumbfounded, how did she know that she was a woman and had never farmed.
"Probably...... Maybe the place is different, the water and soil, and the fertile fields are also different. Wang Xifeng stammered and explained.
"Hey, Daiyu is a little girl, and she is also my granddaughter, let her manage the two manors alone, where can she manage the two manors, let's continue to manage it!" Jia Mu said.
"Hmm!" Wang Xifeng replied happily. Counting it up, the ladies and sons in the house, except for Jia Baoyu, the total expenses of the others in a year are only two or three hundred taels of clothing, food, housing and transportation, and more than two thousand taels of silver, don't be in vain.
…… In autumn, an autumn rain and a cold. The drizzle is hazy, and the clouds are rising; Lin Daiyu and Qin Keqing quickly walked to the lake, took some fish food and sprinkled it on the lake.
Looking at the distant mountains and mountains, you can see the ripples of the near water. After feeding the fish for a while, Lin Daiyu simply took off her shoes and socks, revealing her little white feet, reaching into the water, and playing wantonly.
Sitting on the edge of the stone steps, the girl folded her legs, her legs were very long, and thin, stacked together, and the calves were seamless, showing a soft and weak beauty.
Qin Keqing next to him looked extremely envious, and he didn't know why, obviously this little girl had so much strength, but the whole person was thin and weak.
Is this reasonable? Before, she also wanted to learn martial arts with this sister-in-law, and lose her heart and thighs, but she didn't know what was going on, that strange physical technique, the more she practiced her body, the more wrong it became.
Until now, she couldn't even look down at her toes, and when she was tired of walking a few steps, she felt like she was moving forward with a weight, panting.
Every time I take a bath with my sister-in-law and the little yellow cat, I have repeatedly failed to make games. Hey, what a failed life!
"Meow~"
"Puff~" The swimming fish in the water were suddenly frightened and fled.
"Hee-hee~" Lin Daiyu seemed to know the result and continued to play in the water. After a while, the girl panted and lay her head up: "Sister Qin, why haven't they come to play with me recently?" Qin Keqing said with a smile: "They have been busy coaxing Yuanchun's sister-in-law recently. ”
"Huh? What happened to Sister Yuanchun? Lin Daiyu was strange.
"Holy benevolence, give Yuanchun sister-in-law as a concubine, and she will enter the palace in a few days. These days, there are grandmothers and maids who come to the house to teach the rules, check the body, and supervise. During this period, no one in the house was allowed to enter Yuanchun's sister-in-law's house, and at most they could only stand outside the house and talk through a screen in their leisure time. I heard that Yuanchun's sister-in-law washed her face with tears all day long, and she was in a bad mood. Qin Keqing explained.
These are the things she heard the maid say. Now although she is the young grandmother of Ningfu, there is no man in the family, and even the old women in the house have all kinds of gossip, saying that she is a black widow.
So almost no one in the house came to play with her. Even if there are some important celebrations, the wives in Jiafu will send maids to inform them at most, and they will not care whether they come or not, and it is even best not to go, so as not to disturb the mood of the family reunion.
Only with the innocent Aunt Lin can she experience the happiness of her daughter's family and feel the happiness of life.
Truth be told, those people who said she was Black Widow really wronged her. She's not black!
"Huh?" Lin Daiyu was surprised: "The last time I went to visit my grandmother, I saw that the whole family was very happy, why is Sister Yuanchun unhappy?" Qin Keqing sat on the little girl's side, and Lin Daiyu hurriedly leaned up and rubbed the little brain melon in her heart.
No wonder Lele likes to sleep here, it's so soft and milky. Qin Keqing patted the little girl's little ass in her arms, waited for her to change her comfortable posture, and said slowly: "Miss Lin, haven't you heard a word, once you enter the palace gate, it is as deep as the sea, as long as you enter the palace gate, you will never be able to get out in the future." Moreover, there are hundreds of women in the palace, but there is only one man in the saint, so naturally they have to compete for favor. If you can't give birth to a dragon son, the future will be old and yellow, and you will become an old woman. If someone outside the palace takes care of it, but no one takes care of it, it is a lonely soul, and you can only rely on people to beg for mercy to survive. And the women in the palace have been alone for a long time, and their minds will be vicious and cruel, and they will dare to use any means. We don't know what it is, but Aunt Yuanchun has been serving as a female historian in the palace before, will she not know? ”
"Huh? Then Sister Yuanchun won't go! Lin Daiyu said simply.
"It's hard to disobey the holy will!" Qin Keqing sighed. Besides, looking at the looks of the Jia family now, even if Miss Yuanchun disagrees, who cares?
I'm afraid that as long as they say no, the old lady and the lady will die. Born in the Jia family, the food and clothing are better than ordinary people, and if you want to do something, you can only help yourself.
"Then let's finish lunch and go see Sister Yuanchun in the afternoon." Lin Daiyu said anxiously. These days, according to her mother's instructions, she never goes out, at most she takes a carriage to Jiafu for a turn, and the three sisters of Yuanchun are her few playmates.
"Meow~" The little yellow cat on the other side of Qin Keqing's heart strongly objected. He was full at noon, and he had to rest in the afternoon!
"Lele, be good, or I'm going to beat you!" Xiao Daiyu clenched her fists and said. Today, her cultivation has broken through to a new level, her strength has increased greatly, and she has the power of 10,000 catties, and she feels that she can do it again.
The little yellow cat was stunned for a moment, then stepped on the young woman's heart, staring at the girl's fist. Tilt your head and stare.
"Meow~" Come, come, come, fight this, I'll see you hit me today! Xiao Daiyu was furious and raised her hand.
The little yellow cat raises its paws. One man and one cat fought for the twelfth time in a day. Qin Keqing sneered, it was the first time she had seen such a kitten, and it was estimated that nine taels of a pound of young body were backbones!
"Lele, I'm angry!" Lin Daiyu felt that her chest was full of anger. This guy doesn't even give himself face in front of others!
"Meow!" Miao Le was furious and continued to hold his head on top. Ouch, come on, it's crazy this time! Come, hit this, come, come, come!
"Hey~"
"Meow!"
"Bang bang bang~" After a while, Lin Daiyu burst into tears and gently lifted her already tattered dirty clothes.
The girl made up her mind to wait for her strength to make a breakthrough and reach 20,000 catties, and she must take revenge and make him feel better!
…… Jiafu, the middle courtyard, was originally the residence of Mrs. Wang, and there were more than 20 houses. Now there are Jinwu guards outside, and palace maids and mothers-in-law inside to take care of them, and even it is even more difficult for Mrs. Jia to see Shang Yuanchun.
In the afternoon, after Lin Daiyu came over to see her grandmother first, she proposed to visit Yuanchun. Mother Jia hesitated for a while, then asked Yingchun to bring her over.
When he arrived at the door, Yingchun stopped Lin Daiyu: "Sister Lin, you have to wait a while before you go in." Lin Daiyu's warm eyes blinked, and she was very puzzled: "Aren't you going casually at home?" Yingchun smiled bitterly: "The rules of the palace, now that Yuanchun is already a concubine, we have to meet first." Not only do you have to pay a prayer post, but you also have to give a reception silver. Also, every day, Sister Li Yuanchun only has half an hour to talk to us in the afternoon, and the rest has to learn rules, etiquette and so on. ”
"Reception Silver?" Lin Daiyu was even more confused.
"That said that for the safety and innocence of the concubine, no one was allowed to visit. But Sister Yuanchun is a concubine, and this is at home, so she can also open up the net. However, every time after receiving us, the position of Jin Wuwei and the maid, and the patrol plan have to change. Yingchun explained.
Lin Daiyu was thoughtful, as if she had some sense. At the main entrance, there are two Jin Wuwei standing guards. Yingchun bowed with his left hand, a bag of broken silver in his right hand, squatted slightly, and said respectfully: "Hello, we want to visit Jia Guifei, there is labor." The guard took the bag, weighed it, and said proudly: "Name, identity, is there a grade?" Not everyone can see the concubine! Lin Daiyu hurriedly stepped forward, a little restrained: "Lin Daiyu, the county lord of Jurong County, Yingtianfu, and the cousin of Jia Guifei." ”
"Smack!" The silver in the guard's hand fell directly to the ground.
"You, what do you say your name is?" The guard asked, dumbfounded.
Lin ...... Lin Daiyu! The little girl was a little nervous. Hearing these three words, the two Jin Wuwei's faces turned pale, and they hurriedly bent down deeply: "My subordinates pay a visit to the county lord of Lin." ”
"Huh?" Yingchun and Lin Daiyu were both dumbfounded. Why do the people in the palace still worship them? After waiting for a while, Lin Daiyu reacted, learned from Uncle Chen, raised her hand and said, "No courtesy." ”
"County Lord Xie." Wang Xifeng, Mrs. Wang and others, who rushed to the scene after receiving the news, were shocked and inexplicable when they saw this scene.
Why? Why are these palace maids and guards arrogant to them one by one, but they are angry with this little girl.
Could it be that this Lin Daiyu still has some identity that she doesn't know? ……
