"Brother Lian, are you here today for something?" Baochai and Jia Lian chatted a few words, and Xue Baochai asked.

Because Xue Baochai knew that if there was no matter, Jia Lian would not come directly to Xue's house. In the past, if he wanted to teach his brother, Jia Lian would directly call his brother to the store or Jia's house.

After all, the Xue family is an orphan and a widow, and there is a girl like herself who is already thirteen years old. Jia Lian paid more attention, as for the fact that he always took the initiative to go to Jia's house, of course, it had to be counted separately.

Every time he thought of Jia Lian's statement that he covered his ears and alarmed, Xue Baochai wanted to laugh. However, Xue Baochai also knew that Jia Lian actually had another person in his heart.

Thinking of the illustrious family background behind the little girl who was several years younger than herself, Xue Baochai was a little dizzy. If it weren't for the fact that his father created an opportunity to get close to Brother Lian before he died. I'm afraid I won't be here today.

His only advantage is that he is older and can do more, at least, the current Lin Yatou may not have this kind of mind about Brother Lian.

Xue Baochai knew very well that entering the palace was no longer what he wanted. Even if you want to go in, I'm afraid you can't do it now.

Therefore, Xue Baochai's biggest wish now is to occupy a good position in Jia Lian's backyard in the future. She could see that although Jia Lian was very fond of Wang Xifeng, a woman who was Jia Lian, even if she was a concubine, would have a happy life.

The most important thing is that if Xue Baochai wants to take charge of the Xue family's family business in the future, it will only work by Jia Lian's side.

Seeing the beautiful girl Bao, Jia Lian was happy. It would be nice if "Sister Bao" and "Sister Lin" could be received in the room.

"Last night, an angel arrived, and the emperor ordered me to hand over my duties as the secretary of the Beizhen Prefecture and return to Beijing.

Hearing that Jia Lian was going back to Beijing, Xue Baochai's eyes lit up. In this regard, Xue Baochai understands better than most, even if she is only thirteen years old.

As a nobleman, leaving the center of power often means that everything is one step slower than others. Because unlike civil officials, the wealth of the nobles is very related to the favor of the heavenly family.

As long as the Heavenly Family is strong, no emperor will hand over military power, which means that the nobles who rely on the army and military achievements must be as close to the Heavenly Family as possible.

Those leading generals who were in power in other places all put their families in Shenjing, and in addition to reassuring the heavenly family, they did not have the role of inquiring about the news.

Therefore, it is not a good thing for Jia Lian to be outside all the year round, even if he goes to Shenjing to live in Shenjing, Xue Baochai feels that it is better than being outside.

Of course, Xue Baochai's understanding has her limitations, but there is still her reason.

"Sister Bao, are you listening, why don't you go and ask your aunt?" After Jia Lian finished speaking, he saw that Xue Baochai was a little distracted, so he asked curiously.

Xue Baochai hurriedly said: "Of course we entered Beijing with you, I was thinking just now that my family's house in Beijing seems to have not lived in it for many years." I don't know if I can live there. ”

Xue Baochai naturally couldn't tell Jia Lian what she was thinking, so she had to make up a temporary reason.

Jia Lian was stunned for a moment, but quickly said, "It's okay, when you enter Beijing, you can settle in Rongguo Mansion first." In the north of Rongfu, there is a place called Lixiangyuan, which is the place where the ancestors of Rongguo retreated in their later years. Since the death of Rongguo on the last expedition, it has been vacant.

However, there are maids who clean frequently, which should be better than your old house. You can live there first, and then move in if you want to. ”

Xue Baochai's eyes lit up, he didn't expect Jia Lian to be so thoughtful for the Xue family. The adolescent girl feels good about herself and thinks that Jia Lian must be doing this because of her.

In fact, Jia Lian just copied the original homework.

"Okay, you can tell your aunt, arrange the family's business in Tianjin as soon as possible, pack your luggage, and we will leave early tomorrow morning."

"Tomorrow?" Xue Baochai was taken aback, although the Xue family and the Jia family didn't seem to have many masters. But they are all big families, maids, servants, and there are a lot of salutes. When I first went to Beijing, the Xue family cleaned up for half a month.

"There is no way, the holy decree wants me to enter Beijing immediately, although it can be delayed for a few days, but after all, it can't be too long. Just bring the necessary things, and arrange for someone to slowly pack up and then transport to Shenjing. Anyway, Shenjing to Tianjin is only a stone's throw away. ”

Xue Baochai thought about it and nodded, so he could only do so.

"I'll go first, there's still a big mess to do at home." Jia Lian waved his hand and left the Xue family, and he didn't bother to look at Xue Pan again.

Jia Lian returned to Jia's house and took his wife and concubine to pack up his things without mentioning it. In the Shenjing Lin family, Lin Daiyu, who had just turned eight, was thinking about that stinky cousin again.

That's right, Lin Daiyu just thinks that Jia Lian is a stinky cousin, since Jia Lian went to Jiangnan more than two years ago, Lin Daiyu has been full of good feelings for this cousin with a peerless appearance and good demeanor.

But at that time, there was absolutely no love between men and women, just the good feeling of a little girl's beautiful things. Just like Lin Daiyu likes the beautiful rag doll that Jia Lian gave her.

Later, he finally entered Beijing, but Cousin Lian went to Tianjin again. Although her cousin would come to see her every time she returned to Jingjing during the period, it was convenient for her to come to Shenjing wherever she went.

Speaking of which, it's been a long time since I've seen Yu'er. Lin Daiyu began to beat her rag doll that she couldn't wait to hold for twelve hours a day.

Jia Min looked at Lin Daiyu, who was in a daze again, and said to Lin Ruhai beside her: "Look, your daughter is thinking of spring again." ”

Since entering Beijing, Jia Min is no longer so frightened, and Lin Ruhai is in a high position. Jia Min, who has lived a comfortable life, has become plump in the past two years, but he is more radiant. Standing with Lin Ruhai is almost like a father and daughter.

Lin Ruhai's body and bones have also improved after two years of recuperation. Although he is still so thin, his spirit is much stronger. Although Lin Ruhai is nearly fifty years old, he can be regarded as a cutting-edge faction among high-ranking officials at his level.

In addition, his ability is really outstanding, and he has taken care of the household in an orderly manner in just two years. Therefore, the prestige in the court is extremely high, and everyone in the court knows that although the Son of Heaven has replaced the first assistant, it is impossible for the Emperor Taishang to allow him to replace the cabinet, so Lin Ruhai is temporarily staying in the ministry.

He is completely in power in the future, and today's Lin Ruhai is immediately an important minister of the cabinet and the prime minister of the empire.

At this time, Lin Ruhai was in high spirits and stood beside his wife with a smile. Of course he knew what his wife was saying, but he didn't care.

The daughter just has a good impression of Lian'er now, but not to that extent. When her daughter grows up in the future, she still likes Jia Lian, so marry him.

Regarding the fact that Jia Lian is twelve years older than Lin Daiyu, Lin Ruhai doesn't care. After all, he himself is more than ten years older than Jia Min.

However, the daughter of my Lin family can't be a concubine.
