The Red Mansion Is Like a Jade Gentleman

Chapter 250

PS:

[Thank you for the reward of the hidden wind traveler children's shoes, touch it! 】

【Explain again about the girl's name of the Lin family. In Chapter 17, the girl's name of the Lin family in this book is: Lin + character of brother's generation + jade.

Lin Hai is from the Shui generation, so his younger sister is called Lin Xiangyu.Lin Hai's son is from the Huo generation, so Lin Hai's daughter is called: Lin Lingyu! 】

But it said that after Lin Hai and Kong Jiayi arrived in Yangzhou, they left Lin Chang's team of Fuling.

I went to Qinghe County for a trip, and there was a lot of official business that needed to be dealt with in the yamen, so Lin Hai went home, took a short rest, and went to the study to handle official business!

In fact, to be honest, you can distinguish between busy and not busy in everything you do. For example, in Yanzheng, you can choose to live a very busy life or a very leisurely life.The reason is, how do you treat the group of salt merchants below!

With the fact that Lin Hai asked Master Song's house to be named by Emperor Xuande, Lin Hai and the salt officials in Jiangnan have cooperated well in the past few years, and no major incidents have occurred, and the income of the salt administration has also increased steadily year by year. with.Although Emperor Xuande was somewhat dissatisfied with Lin Hai's tepid handling of these salt merchants, he still acquiesced to Lin Hai's method of boiling frogs in warm water for stability in the south of the Yangtze River.

If Jiangnan is unstable, let’s not talk about anything else. A quarter of the court’s tax revenue comes from Jiangnan. No, the customs tax is not counted. If you count it together, almost one-third of the tax revenue comes from Jiangnan Seeing that the northern border is about to go to war, it is impossible not to acquiesce!

At this time, domestic stability comes first.

He took off his shoes and socks and shrank into the bed!Lin Hai let out a sigh of satisfaction.

"Master, I'm tired today!" Kong Jiayi asked while lying beside Lin Hai.She also knew that after going to Qinghe County for almost half a month, there was a lot of business affairs outside Lin Hai.

Lin Hai shook his head, although the patrolling salt censor was in charge of salt.But it is still the censor, that is, the position of supervisor in the legend, and those salt officials are still working.As for the position of doctor of Lantai Temple, it was as early as a year ago.Lin Hai wrote a letter asking Emperor Xuande to send another person to take over.Although he was not in the mansion for more than half a month, there were still four aides in the mansion, and the backlog was only some big things, or things related to the interests of the Lin family.Not much.

"There is something I need to discuss with the master." Seeing that Lin Hai was in good spirits, Kong Jiayi smiled under the quilt.

"Well, what happened?" Lin Hai wondered, generally Kong Jiayi about the backyard.Everything was packed by myself, except for important people going to Keqing, normal things.Will not discuss with him.To put it simply, what Kong Jiayi wanted to discuss with him was not a trivial matter.

"It's nothing. It's just Ye'er's marriage. We've been delaying it. This year, I watched him pass the Juren exam. He's going to take the exam in March next year! Ms. Yuan's family will be sixteen after turning the year!" Kong Jiayi said with a sigh.In the blink of an eye, Yuan's parents, that cute little bun from back then, have grown up and are about to marry a wife and have children!As a mother, Kong Jiayi was both proud and a little uncomfortable.

Lin Hai was taken aback for a moment, but he hadn't thought about this problem. The main reason was that Kong Jiayi was the one who was messing with the family members. Although Lin Hai knew about the relatives and friends in the family, he never cared about other people's children when he came out. If there is a birthday party, Kong Jiayi should be there!

But what Kong Jiayi said was also right. The excuse was that Lin Ye was still young and had been in the south of the Yangtze River all the time, so the Yuan family had nothing to say.But now that Miss Yuan's family is about to turn sixteen, if the Lin family doesn't say anything, it will be unreasonable!At that time, I'm afraid it's not marriage, but feud!

"Then what do you think about this matter?"

Kong Jiayi played with Lin Hai's hair, and said with a smile, "Is there anything else I can do, isn't Ye'er going to Beijing sooner or later! What I mean is, it's better to go early, and then go to Yuan's house to clarify this matter, It's not that we don't want to get married as soon as possible, but that now is the critical time for Ye'er, let the wedding date be arranged in the second half of next year. But I have also thought about it, anyway, this capital city is all about ostentation, once we go to the capital, we will Let's go through some of the process first, and show our attitude to the Yuan family." Kong Jiayi laughed as he spoke.

"I don't know what the people in the capital think. The longer the marriage is planned, the more important it is to show the status of the man and the woman. It means that the man values ​​the woman." I don't know if it is a feudal superstition.

Lin Hai also laughed, "I remember that when I married you, my family prepared for it for a whole year. Doesn't this mean that I value you a lot!"

Kong Jiayi pouted and hammered Lin Hai's chest, and said with some reluctance: "Fuck you, it's obviously my mother who values ​​me, okay, what's the credit for you!"

Although Kong Jiayi's strength wasn't heavy, Lin Hai still didn't have the habit of being abused, so he grabbed Kong Jiayi's hand and said, "Yes, yes, yes, what Madam says, that's all right!"

Kong Jiayi snuggled into Lin Hai's arms a little shyly, and said a little angrily, "What did the master say? I'm talking about business with the master. What does the master think of my idea?"

"It's a good idea. It's okay to go through the procedure first, just don't let Ye'er be distracted!" Lin Hai still values ​​the eldest son, although his reading talent is not as high as that of his second son, Lin Yu. , but he has a good grasp of the world's sophistication. Even if he enters the officialdom in the future, he will be able to get in smoothly.

Kong Jiayi gave Lin Hai a blank look. It is still necessary for him to say, don't look at Lin Hai and Kong Jiayi's relationship is very good, there is no concubine between the couple, but Kong Jiayi still looks at it even more deep in his heart. For Lin Ye, it has nothing to do with feelings or family background, it's just that it's driven by this big environment.

"Master, don't worry, I will definitely take care of it and won't distract Ye'er."

I don't know what caused Lin Hai to make a fuss, but he suddenly said, "By the way, I'm going to Beijing to report on my work in May next year. Why don't we arrange the wedding at that time, so that Ye'er can join the big and small Dengke?" Lin Hai still treats Lin Ye If you are confident, the top three may have to work hard, but the title on the gold list is not a big problem.

Lin Ye wanted to have a family background, a talent to learn, and even the examiners in the officialdom would subconsciously be merciful.Besides, it's not that the Lin family has no influence in the capital, not to mention other in-laws, even the Yuan family will watch secretly!

After all, if Lin Ye can be admitted to Jinshi, the marriage of Lin and Yuan's family can also be upgraded to a higher level.

Kong Jiayi was startled, and said, "Why don't I know?"

"The official document was just sent a few days ago. Next fall, the emperor is going to force the north. Not only the Yanzheng side, but also the customs, weaving, and censors will go to Beijing to report on their duties, but the time is different!" Lin Hai today I just saw, how did he talk to Kong Jiayi!

"Oh!" Kong Jiayi also knew that Lin Hai hadn't processed official documents for more than half a month, and Lin Hai couldn't really be blamed for this, and then said sullenly, "Doesn't that mean that I will be separated from you for more than half a year?"

Lin Hai sighed, and patted Kong Jiayi on the back, "There is no way to do this. Ye'er's future is important. Besides, it's just a few months, and it will pass in the blink of an eye!"

After hearing what Lin Hai said, Kong Jiayi's mood improved somewhat, but she just snuggled up to Lin Hai and didn't speak.While comforting his sweet wife, Lin Hai thought of another matter, and said, "It's okay, time will pass in the blink of an eye. But I have one thing, I'm afraid I need you to worry about it."

"What's the matter?" Kong Jiayi asked, apart from a few children, what else should she worry about at home.

Lin Haidao: "It's Lin Chang's marriage. He's lost his wife now. I asked him about his intentions, and he told me that he planned to marry after the one-year filial piety expires. You also know that he is considered old. Now, marrying a step-wife again, such conditions are certainly not good in Jiangnan, but since they are of the same clan, we elders should worry about his life."

Kong Jiayi was in a bit of a dilemma. Lin Chang's conditions were pretty good on the surface, but he married a step-wife, and he already had a six-year-old daughter!

However, according to Lin Chang's family background and official position, it is impossible for Lin Chang to find a woman to wear the Fengguan Xiapei of the third-rank imperial wife. It is the standard of this stepwife. Lowered too low.

Moreover, since Lin Haihai was released to the south of the Yangtze River, the people Kong Jiayi has traveled and known are basically noble families, and there are many ladies in the boudoir, but I really can't think of one who is suitable for Lin Chang.

Moreover, the lady in her boudoir may not be willing to marry Lin Chang, an old man who is almost in his 40s and has a six-year-old daughter.

As for talking about marriage to Lin Chang, Lin Hai also knew that Kong Jiayi was in a difficult situation, but it was even more difficult for him. As a man, he had no way of knowing about things like being a matchmaker, and he couldn't do it.But his determination to find a stepmother for sister Lin remained firm.

Kong Jiayi thought about it carefully, but she didn't think of anyone, so she could only say: "I'll inquire and see, this matter can't be rushed." That's hopeless for a serious lady, who wants to marry an old man! .There are only two things Kong Jiayi can think of now, one is to see if there is any girl from the official family who has not married in the early blooming period, and the other is to see if anyone has poor relatives, of course it is only relative.

"Just worry about it, don't be in a hurry, there is still a year to go, if you can't find a suitable one in Jiangnan, you can also see if there is any suitable one in the capital, there are more people there." Lin Hai said with a smile.

In any case, it was time to find a stepmother for Sister Lin. Lin Hai had to see what excuse Mother Jia could use to let Sister Lin live in Jia's mansion.

snort!

The villain in his heart snorted coldly, anyway, he just looked at Jia's family, especially Jia's mother, who was particularly displeased.

Lin Hai said that he was very happy to be able to separate the group of people from Jia's family.

Stepmother or something, sometimes very loving.
