[Comprehensive Wear] A good brother's life

Chapter 21 The Red Mansion

After Jia Min's funeral was over, Mother Jia received the letter Jia Min had written to her before he left.

The saddest thing in the world is when a white-haired person gives a black-haired person.The death of her daughter was a great blow to Jia's mother, which made her pass out from grief.

Jia Min is Mother Jia's most beloved daughter. Even if her daughter gets married, she has been thinking about her daughter all these years.It can be said that in these years, there is not a day when she does not miss her daughter.Knowing that her daughter will bring her grandson and granddaughter to Beijing to visit her this year, she has been looking forward to her daughter's arrival.Not waiting for her daughter's arrival in April made her feel lost for a long time.The daughter told her that she would bring her grandson and granddaughter to come in September, so she counted the days and waited for the arrival of September, but instead of the good news that her daughter arrived in the capital with her grandson and them, she waited for the sad news of her daughter's death.

The death of her daughter made Jia Mu, an old mother, ill.Over the years, Jia's mother has been very healthy and rarely gets sick, but this time she fell ill in bed.

Mother Jia fell ill in bed, which was a big event for Ningrong and Rongfu.

The daughter-in-laws and grand-daughter-in-laws took turns to serve Jia Mu when she was sick, hoping that Jia Mu would recover soon.

In the past few days, Jia's mother shed tears almost every day.No matter how Wang Xifeng coaxed her, it didn't make her recover from the grief of losing her daughter.Even her most beloved grandson, Jia Baoyu, did not make her better.

The existence of Jiamu, to Ningrong and Rongfu, is similar to the existence of Dinghai Shenzhen.If something happened to her, people in both Ningrong and Rongfu would be flustered.Seeing that Jia's mother was not well, Jia Zheng and the others were in a hurry.

Wang Xifeng was entrusted with the important task of making her do her best to make Jia's mother happy and to restore her spirits from excessive sadness.

No, Wang Xifeng comforted Jia Mu while feeding her medicine, "Old Ancestor, do you think this will work? Bring Brother Huai and Daiyu to live in the mansion for a while, and let them accompany you."

When Jia Mu heard Wang Xifeng's suggestion, she nodded immediately and said, "Okay, okay, bring Brother Huai and Daiyu here."

Seeing that Jia's mother had regained some energy, Wang Xifeng quietly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and continued: "Let Second Master Lian go to Yangzhou to pick up Brother Huai and the others tomorrow."

"Okay, Min'er is gone, leaving two children..." Mother Jia's eyes became wet as she spoke.

"Old ancestor, you can stop crying." Wang Xifeng quickly put down the medicine bowl in her hand, took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the tears from the corners of Jia Mu's eyes, "Old ancestor, you have to take care of yourself quickly, or Brother Huai They are here, and seeing that you are ill, I am afraid that they will feel uneasy."

"I just think of Min'er..."

"Old Ancestor, Brother Huai and the others lost their aunt, and seeing you sick again, I'm afraid they will be even more sad." Wang Xifeng coaxed Jia's mother, "They are here. As a grandmother, you have to love them."

"you're right……"

Wang Xifeng's consolation finally worked, making Jia's mother decide to get well soon and wait for the arrival of Lin Huaiyu and Xiaolin Daiyu.

Jia Lian was sent to Yangzhou again, this time his task was to pick up Lin Huaiyu and Xiaolin Daiyu, and bring them to Rongguo Mansion safely.

Before Jia Lian arrived, Lin Ruhai received a letter from Jia's mother, saying that she wanted to see Lin Huaiyu and Lin Daiyu, and wanted to take them to Rongguo Mansion for a period of time.

After Lin Ruhai received the letter, he called Lin Huaiyu to him and asked for his opinion.

"Do you want to go to the capital to meet your grandmother?"

Lin Huaiyu said in her heart, to be honest, I don't want to go to the capital to meet Jia Mu at all.

Seeing his son's silence, Lin Ruhai knew that his son didn't really want to go to the capital.

"When your mother was alive, she always wanted to take you to the capital to meet your grandmother and the others, and introduce you to them."

Hearing what Lin Ruhai said, Lin Huaiyu immediately understood, "Father, do you want me to go to the capital to meet my grandmother and the others?"

"Your mother thought, before she left, she asked me to take you and Daiyu to visit your grandmother in the capital." After rebirth, Lin Ruhai has been secretly investigating some things, and found out many things about Ningrong and Rongfu. He didn't want to have too much contact with Ningrong and Rongfu, but he was the son-in-law of Rongguo Mansion, so he didn't want to stop contacting Jia's family if he didn't want to. "Your mother knows that her departure will make your grandmother sad. She wants you and Daiyu to go to Rongguo Mansion to accompany your grandmother for a while, which can be regarded as showing filial piety to her."

What Lin Ruhai said made Lin Huaiyu embarrassed to refuse.

"Your mother has always felt that she is not filial. First, she failed to take you to the capital to visit your grandmother, and then let your grandmother send a white-haired person to a black-haired person. This made your mother blame herself." Lin Ruhai also did not want her son and daughter to go Rongguo Mansion in the capital, "Your mother hopes that you can honor your grandmother instead of her. Jia Lian is already on his way."

Even if Lin Huaiyu didn't want to go to Jia's house anymore, he had to go under the current situation, after all Jia Lian was here.

"Okay, I'll take my sister to my grandmother's house."

Lin Ruhai stretched out his hand and patted his son's shoulder lightly, and said in a gentle voice, "Bringing Daiyu to Rongguo Mansion can be regarded as fulfilling your mother's last wish."

"Father, my sister and I are going to the capital, what do you do?" Jia's family is a sinkhole, but it's not a dragon's pond or a tiger's den, so just go, anyway, he won't let his sister be bullied by Jia's family like in the original book. "I don't worry about you being home alone."

"I have nothing to worry about." Lin Ruhai smiled gently at his son, "I promised your mother will be fine, so you don't have to worry about me."

Lin Huaiyu thought to himself that his father had been reborn, and he should have an idea in his mind about matters in the officialdom.However, even if he was worried about his father's safety, his seven-year-old kid couldn't help him much.

"Since you say that, I'm relieved."

"You must not be rude when you go to your grandmother's house this time." Lin Ruhai was more or less worried that Lin Huaiyu and the others would go to Jia's house, "Even if your grandmother loves you, you must not break the rules."

Lin Huaiyu could tell that Lin Ruhai was worried about them, "Father, don't worry, my sister and I will never break the rules."

For his son, Lin Ruhai is at ease.

"If someone in Jia's family gossips about you, you don't need to be patient, just do what you want." Lin Ruhai worried that Lin Huaiyu would be gossiped and bullied by Jia's family when he went to Jia's house. After all, Lin Huaiyu was not Jia Min's own son.

With Lin Ruhai's words, Lin Huaiyu felt confident.

"Father, don't worry, I won't let anyone bully my sister and me."

"You are prudent, don't worry about your father." Lin Ruhai thought for a while and said, "I'm afraid you will live in the capital for a few months this time, and your studies can't be delayed."

"What does father mean?"

"My father has a good friend in the capital. I will write to him and ask him to teach you."

"Father, will this be too troublesome?" After Lin Huaiyu finished speaking, he thought of something and asked, "Father, don't our family have any relatives in the capital?" If the Lin family has relatives in the capital, he can bring his younger sister with him Going to live with relatives, there is no need to stay in Jia's house all the time.

"No, all the relatives of our Lin family are in Gusu." Lin Ruhai said warmly, "You and Daiyu are the godsons and goddaughters of my good friend. He has always wanted to meet you. If you go to him, he is too happy .”

"Is your friend not busy?"

"Not too busy."

This good friend Lin Ruhai has a very good relationship with him, and the two of them are considered childhood sweethearts.Although they are not real brothers, their relationship is closer than real brothers.

The two were classmates in Suzhou back then. They studied hard together for decades, and then took the imperial examination together.Lin Ruhai passed the Tanhua exam, and her friend got the second place in the exam.

After Lin Ruhai's friend won the second place in the exam, he first went to the Imperial Academy, and later directly became a bachelor of the Imperial Academy.

The official duties of the academicians of the Hanlin Academy are not busy, and it can be said that most of them are relatively free.Furthermore, his friend is quite talented, that's why Lin Ruhai thought of asking his friend to teach Lin Huaiyu in his studies.

"You Uncle Ye is a good teacher, he will be very happy if you become his student."

"Uncle Ye is not very strict, is he?"

"No, he is an easy-going person, and he likes children very much, but it is a pity that he has no children yet." Lin Ruhai's friend is Ye Wenfu, who has been married for many years and has no children yet.In fact, he almost had a child once, but his wife had a dystocia during childbirth. Not only was the child gone, but she would never be able to conceive again. "He'll be very happy when you go."

After Lin Ruhai told Lin Huaiyu about his friend, he immediately wrote a letter to him. Besides asking his friend to teach his son to study, he also asked him to take care of Lin Huaiyu and the others.

Compared with the Jia family, Lin Ruhai trusts her friends more.

Lin Huaiyu thought about going to Jia's house soon, and worried that his sister would be harmed by Jia Baoyu. Before Jia Lian arrived, he had to cast a "curse" on his sister to keep her away from Jia Baoyu.

Since Jia Min died of illness, Xiaolin Daiyu has become more and more attached to Lin Huaiyu, her elder brother.Whatever Lin Huaiyu said, she did.She believed whatever Lin Huaiyu said.Now that she heard her brother say bad things about Jia Baoyu, her cousin, not only did she not doubt it, she even believed it.

Seeing that her younger sister had listened to his words, Lin Huaiyu felt a little relieved, but she still didn't dare to be careless.He was worried that the plot of the original novel would have a great impact, and that his sister would be uncontrollably attracted when she saw Jia Baoyu, so he had to be more vigilant.

Knowing that they were going to Jia's house, Nanny Zhang and the others helped Lin Huaiyu and Xiaolin Daiyu pack their things.In addition to bringing their daily necessities, they also had to bring some gifts. After all, this was Lin Huaiyu's first visit to Jia's house, so she couldn't go there empty-handed.

After Mammy Zhang and the others packed up, Jia Lian arrived in Yangzhou.

A year ago, when Jia Lian came, Jia Min was fine.A year later, when he came to the Lin family again, Jia Min had already passed away.

This time, Jia Lian was not a guest at Lin's house again, so he took Lin Huaiyu and Xiaolin Daiyu away after staying for a few days.

The journey to the capital went smoothly, and I arrived in the capital in half a month.

Before their boat arrived at the port in the capital, Jia Mu sent someone to guard the port early, waiting to pick up Lin Huaiyu and the others.
