[Comprehensive Wear] A good brother's life

Chapter 11 The Red Mansion

The Four Books and Five Classics annotated by Lin Ruhai gave Lin Huaiyu three days of life in the system.The four books and five classics of the two sets of annotations add up to a total of ten days of life, which is like a pie in the sky for Lin Huaiyu.

Before, Lin Huaiyu exchanged the prescription of Xiaolin Daiyu's Ginseng Yangrong Pill with the system for the prescription to improve Xiaolin Daiyu's physique in the future.However, Xiaolin Daiyu can't take the prescription given by the system for the time being. She can only take it after she turns seven years old, so she can only put it on hold for the time being.

In Lin Ruhai's study, besides many ancient books, there are also many calligraphy and paintings.However, Lin Huaiyu was too embarrassed to ask his father for these calligraphy and paintings.He planned to wait for a while before asking Lin Ruhai to have the cheek to ask for it.

After trading with the system, Lin Huaiyu began to silently write what Mr. Lu taught today.After silently writing, Lin Ruhai personally corrected it.Afterwards, he questioned the meaning of what Lin Huaiyu wrote silently.Lin Huaiyu answered all the questions correctly without haste, and was highly praised by his father.

At this time, Jia Min came in with the freshly boiled milk.

"Brother Huai, it's getting late, it's time to drink milk and sleep."

Seeing Jia Min coming, Lin Huaiyu quickly stood up and walked over to take the freshly boiled milk from her.

"Thank you mother, is my sister asleep?"

Jia Min reached out and touched his son's little head, and said with a gentle smile, "Sleeping."

"Has my sister drank milk?" Lin Huaiyu knew that her sister didn't like drinking milk very much, and every time her sister drank milk, she would have a small expression of disgust.

"Drink it, drink it, you ordered her, how could she not drink it." Jia Min said with a smile, "Whatever you ask her to do, she will obediently do it."

Hearing what Jia Min said, Lin Huaiyu felt relieved, raised her head and drank the freshly boiled milk.

After drinking the milk, there was a circle of milk stains around the corner of his mouth, and Jia Min gently wiped the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief.

"Brother Huai, go to sleep after drinking the milk."

"Okay, father, mother, I'm going to bed in my room, and you all go to bed early."

Not long after he fell asleep, Jia Min and Lin Ruhai came to his room to see if he was sleeping well.Lin Huaiyu didn't know about this at first, but later learned from the system that Lin Ruhai and the others would come to his room every night, which moved him very much.He knew in his heart that the reason why Lin Ruhai and the others came to see if he was sleeping well every night was mainly because they cared about him.

At this time, Jia Lian, who was far away in the capital, had already set off for Yangzhou.

The day before his departure, Jia's mother wrote a letter to Jia Min, telling her that Jia Lian was going to visit her.After that, she wrote another letter for Jia Lian to take with her, and when he arrived, she handed it to Jia Min herself.

From Beijing to Yangzhou, it takes half a month or twenty days by boat.The letter written by Jia's mother to Jia Min was delivered to Yangzhou in about seven days.

Jia Min received a letter from Jia's mother and was very happy to learn that Jia Lian was coming to Yangzhou to visit her.

"Ma'am, it's a good thing that the old lady sent the second master Lian to visit you. You should be happy. Why are you crying?" Seeing Jia Min quietly wiped away her tears, Mammy Zhang comforted her, "The old lady is far away. The capital has always cared about you."

"I'm unfilial, making my mother who is far away in the capital worry about me all the time." Jia Min's heart is full of guilt and self-blame, "I was seriously ill before, I'm afraid my mother is worried that I can't eat and sleep well, I'm really unfilial. "

"Madam, if you don't want the old lady to worry about you all the time, you have to take care of yourself quickly." Zhang Nanny comforted, "When the second master Lian arrives, he sees that you look good and energetic, so go back and talk to the old lady. Madam said that you are well, the old lady will be very happy."

"You're right, I want to take better care of my body before Lian'er comes, so that my mother can rest assured." Jia Min was lifted up by Zhang Nanny's words, and decided to stay here. Take a while to make up for it. "By the way, Mama Zhang, go and prepare. Let Lian'er stay longer this time."

"Madam, don't worry, the old slave will definitely arrange it properly."

"By the way, Lian'er had a daughter last year. You are going to write something about children, and then let Lian'er take it back." Jia Min thought for a while and then ordered, "Also, you go to the jewelry store to buy two A bracelet for health and longevity. A bracelet, an anklet. By the way, a golden lock and a golden peanut..."

"Ma'am, didn't you entrust someone to deliver these things last year?" Nanny Zhang said with a strange look on her face, "Why do you want to get these things again?"

"Oh, I'd have forgotten it if you didn't tell me." Without Nanny Zhang, Jia Min really forgot, "You see, my memory is really..."

"Ma'am, do you need to make another copy of these things?"

"No, let's buy some other things." Jia Min thought for a while, and then told Zhang's mother to go to work again.

After school at noon, Lin Huaiyu led his sister back to Jia Min's house.

"Mother, we're back."

"Mother, we're back."

"I'm back, are you hungry?" Jia Min smiled, "Mother Zhang will bring them two cups of honey water first."

"Yes, ma'am."

After drinking a glass of honey water, Lin Huaiyu saw Jia Min smiling and asked curiously, "Mother, what happened? You look very happy?"

"Lian'er is coming." Just as Jia Min finished speaking, he realized that Lin Huaiyu didn't know who Lian'er was, so he quickly added, "Lian'er is the son of your uncle's family in the capital city, and he is your cousin."

Jia Lian is coming? !

Why is he here at this time?

In the original book, after Jia Min died of illness, Jia's mother was worried and wanted to see Lin Daiyu, so she sent Jia Lian to Yangzhou to pick Lin Daiyu to the capital.

Now Jia Min is fine, and besides, there is still more than a year before his death in the original book, why did Jia Lian come suddenly?

"What's the matter, cousin?" Forget it, Jia Lian came early, so let's come early.

"Your grandmother was worried about me, so she sent Lian'er to visit me and you too." Jia Min looked at Lin Huaiyu tenderly, "Your grandmother wanted to see you very much, but it was not convenient for her to come to Yangzhou, so she sent Lian'er is here."

"Grandmother was worried about mother, that's why she sent my cousin to visit you in Yangzhou." Lin Huaiyu was only slightly surprised by Jia Lian's arrival, but didn't take it seriously.

In the original book, Jia Lian came to Lin's house for the first time to take Lin Daiyu to Jia's mansion.The second time I came to the Lin family, one was to send Lin Daiyu back to attend Lin Ruhai's funeral, and the other was to receive the property of the Lin family.Now, both Lin Ruhai and Jia Min are living well, and the Jia family will not have any idea about the Lin family's property at this time.

"When Lian'er comes, mother will introduce him to you properly."

"it is good."

Next, during lunch, Jia Min told Lin Huaiyu in detail about the personnel of Jia's family.Among them, Jia Baoyu, who was born with a jade title, was solemnly introduced.

Mentioning this nephew who was born with jade, Jia Min's face was full of pride.

Xiaolin Daiyu had heard Jia Min talk about this cousin who was born with jade in his mouth.Every time she listens to it, she thinks this cousin is amazing.

"When I have taken care of myself, I will take the two of you to the ancestral home outside the capital to see Baoyu's jade." Jia Min never returned to her natal home after she got married. , she was also very curious and wanted to see this nephew. "Brother Huai, you are the same age as Baoyu, but you are a month older than Baoyu. You can be regarded as Baoyu's cousin. From now on, you two cousins ​​should get along well."

Lin Huaiyu's answer was very ambiguous: "If there is a chance to meet in the future."

Jia Min looked at Lin Huaiyu's hearing about Jia Baoyu, and she was not surprised. On the contrary, she looked calm, which surprised her.

She was a little puzzled, but she didn't ask Lin Huaiyu.She thought to herself that Lin Huaiyu probably had never met the Jia family, so she was not very interested in the affairs of the Jia family.She thought that when she recovered, she must take her son and daughter to live with her mother's family in the capital for a period of time, so that her son and daughter could get acquainted with her mother's family.

Xiaolin Daiyu suddenly said, "I want to see Baoyu too."

Hearing her sister's words, Lin Huaiyu's heart skipped a beat, and she looked at her nervously and worriedly: "Sister, do you want to see Baoyu?"

Xiaolin Daiyu nodded: "Well, I want to see Baoyu what mother said."

Jia Min touched her daughter's face with her hand, and said with a gentle smile, "In the future, mother will take you to your grandmother's house and ask your cousin Baoyu to take down his treasure jade for you to see."

Xiao Lin Daiyu nodded again and again: "Okay, okay."

Lin Huaiyu: "..." No, he must cut off his sister's curiosity about Jia Baoyu from now on.By the way, from now on, she has to plant a "bad seed" in her young heart, so that she will have a bad impression of Jia Baoyu before she sees him, so even if she cannot avoid going to Jia's mansion in the future , can also keep her away from Jia Baoyu.

In his opinion, the biggest source of Lin Daiyu's tragedy was Jia Baoyu.As long as she is far away from Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu will not be as miserable as in the original book.Of course, another main reason is that Lin Ruhai died of illness, leaving her helpless and dependent on the Jia family to survive.Now, with him here, these two reasons that caused her to end in misery will never happen again.

After lunch, Lin Huaiyu took his younger sister to the yard for a walk to digest.He was thinking about how to make his younger sister have a bad impression of Jia Baoyu, so he couldn't speak directly.If Jia Min knew, it might make her unhappy.Besides, my sister is still young, so if I tell her directly, she can't understand.

After much deliberation, Lin Huaiyu came up with a good idea and decided to tell her sister that "cousin" is not a good creature by telling a story.

With an idea in mind, Lin Huaiyu decided to take action immediately.Of course, you have to tell stories to your sister when Jia Min is not there.In addition to telling the story that the creature "cousin" is not a good thing, he also decided to tell his sister a modern fairy tale to enrich her childhood life.

In the evening, when Lin Ruhai came back and learned that Jia Lian was coming, he was not as happy as Jia Min.Lin Huaiyu noticed that he didn't seem to welcome Jia Lian's arrival very much.

After dinner, the father and son went to the study together.

Lin Ruhai didn't bring home business today, so he accompanied his son to read and write.

"Father, I have a question to ask you." He had noticed that Lin Ruhai didn't seem to welcome Jia Lian's arrival, which made him want to test Lin Ruhai's attitude towards Jia's family.
