Chapter 29 The Red Chamber (29)(1/2)

&1t;script>Red Building 29

However, the Jia family was very happy because Yuanchun was appointed as a concubine. All the female family members wanted to enter the palace to thank them. For a moment, they became busy. Lin Yutong and Lin Daiyu quietly retreated and walked into the yard.

"Sister, I looked coldly. The maternal family had passed the past. Now that there is this happy event, I am afraid that I will be more successful. Instead, I have a little more worry." Lin Daiyu tightened her cloak and sighed slowly.

"Yes! This discerning man can see it. But the man who is not promising at home has always been used to being extravagant. Don't you know the truth that 'It's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it's difficult to go from extravagance to frugality'. This is not something we can say clearly in two sentences." Lin Yutong smiled slightly and stopped talking.

"Why are sister so happy just now?" Lin Daiyu looked at Lin Yutong and asked.

A keen baby is so unpleasant.

Can you say that I want to plot against the money from your grandfather's family? Lin Yutong wanted to fool him, but looking at Lin Daiyu's black and white eyes, she couldn't tell any lies. She looked around and saw that the surroundings were still empty, and she whispered: "I'm not happy, but laughing at the men who have read so many books in the past, but I didn't hear anything strange. My sister also reads history books, and the word "virtuousness" is not so easy to use. A concubine, let's not say that there are never two words on this title, but shouldn't she be a little alert when she only looks at the word "virtuousness"? I remember that this cousin was a female official in the queen's palace. The female official is also a service person, why did she use the word "virtuousness"? What should she use to evaluate the queen?"

Lin Daiyu was stunned, and her face became terrible: "According to what my sister said, it would be bad."

"Anyway, I have never heard of a concubine who praises her 'virtuousness'. This virtuousness does not seem like a title, but rather like..." Lin Yutong said this and said in a tone.

Lin Daiyu was anxious and asked, "What does it look like?"

"Possessed title!" Lin Yutong said in a very light voice.

But Lin Daiyu's heart exploded. Is what my sister said unreasonable? There must be some. But can she say this to her grandmother? Will she believe it after she says it? What would she think if she says such a happy day? Wouldn't she offend the entire Jia family?

Moreover, it involves the sister's private understanding of the sacred intentions, so she dare not easily explain it. This is related to the Lin family.

Besides, what if the Lord has the intention? No one else has taken it out, but he has ignorantly provoked it out. If the Lord’s plan is broken, who can bear the result?

How did Yang Xiu die? He was killed by his own intelligence and a mouth. It doesn’t matter if he is smart, but there is another saying called ‘see through it and don’t say it out’.

"My understanding sister." Lin Daiyu turned her head and said with difficulty: "After the will above, this fate is already destined. No matter what you do, the building will collapse, no one can stop it."

Lin Yutong nodded, "Let's go. Go back."

"Sister, go back first. I feel depressed and want to walk alone." Lin Daiyu felt so nervous that she said.

Lin Yutong nodded in understanding. Lin Daiyu is different from herself. She has no relationship with the Jia family, and even has some grudges because of the two concubines. Therefore, when she knew the result, she was calm and felt that she had finally come. But these people are Lin Daiyu's blood relatives, people with blood relationships. It is inevitable that she would suffer and suffer.

"It's cold outside, don't delay too long." After Lin Yutong's instructions, he ordered a few girls, "Look at your master, don't make any mistakes."

Then he went to beat someone and sent a letter to the shopkeeper, telling him to make preparations in time and it would start soon.

Lin Daiyu wandered aimlessly outside, but walked opposite Jia Baoyu. Seeing that Baoyu's eyes were slightly red, he was stunned, without any joy.

She felt relieved and asked, "Everyone is in the celebration of Empress Dowager, why don't you go? I stay here again, and I'll see it, and I say you'll be stunned."

When Jia Baoyu saw that it was Lin Daiyu, he was a little better. After resigning to his grief, he smiled and said, "I don't want to meet my sister here."

"I saw the sky and walked around this garden a few times. I have never met you before. I just wanted to ask you what you are busy with recently." Lin Daiyu turned her head and spoke with a sense of anger.

Jia Baoyu was hanging with Qin Zhong in the study room in the name of studying, but Shi Shao was wandering around at home recently. So when Lin Daiyu asked, he couldn't help feeling a little guilty and smiled and said, "What are you busy with? It's just that the master is at home and dare not come out to mess around. Even if he pretends to behave, he has to waste his time in the study room."

"How come you have time today? You're out to wander around again. But seeing that my second uncle is busy with my eldest cousin's affairs, I can't take care of you for a while." Lin Daiyu asked with a smile.

Jia Baoyu smiled pursed his lips and said, "You can't hide anything from you. However, you only guessed one thing, but you don't know the other." As he said that, he red his eyes again when he thought of Qin Zhong. "The Qin brothers are very good people. Since her sister went there, his father has disappeared a few days ago. Now he is the only one, and it's not good to see it. I have had a good time with him, how can I not be sad when I see it?" As for how Qin Zhong was so angry that his father was so angry that he had something to do with Zhier, he didn't dare to mention it even more.

Lin Daiyu suddenly realized that it was for such a reason. She thought he could see that the flowers and bright fire cooking oil were dangerous step by step. She sighed in her heart. Baoyu was originally a very soft-hearted person. She advised: "You often hit people to see, and the doctor asked the doctor not to delay the medicine. Even if the money is short or not, you just subsidize one or two. This is also your intention. If the money on your side is short, just take it from me. I am afraid that this is the old lady. The lady knows that she dares not use your own things, so she hit Mingyan to the back door of my house and tells the doorman that I will ask someone to hand the money out to you."

"Good sister." Baoyu grabbed Lin Daiyu's hand, "It's only you who knows my heart."

Lin Daiyu pulled her hand back and scolded, "Just talk well when speaking, day by day, it's like this, always pulling like this." She was very careful, but she didn't expect Baoyu to make progress. She glared at her, then turned around and left. She didn't want to turn any further.

Before the people here could walk, Xiren stood on the side of the road and shouted, "My Second Master, it's cold and cold, why are you here? If you are sick, how can you tell the old lady?" Then he said to Daiyu, "Miss Lin is here too. If you are cold, you have to talk to our house and talk. If you are outside, you won't be cured if you are sick."

Lin Daiyu's expression changed immediately. This meant that she had tripped Baoyu and shouldn't have pulled Baoyu outside to talk. It would be even more excessive to ask a girl to go to the man's house to talk.

Zijuan's face turned red with anger but she didn't say anything. The girl in Baoyu's house was even taller than others.

But Zhilan and Fanghua are not vegetarians either. Zhilan sneered and said, "Our girl, don't walk a few times in this garden one day. Who doesn't know that our girl has the habit of taking a fixed walk? Why? Our Lin family lives in your house, and you still have to retreat and lose your home when you meet your master."

Fanghua smiled, "You don't know this. Sister Xiren is a first-class virtuous person. If the second master Bao is not in front of her eyes, he will be guaranteed to come here for a while. That is really a matter of inseparable from the moment of time."

If Xiren was just a girl, or had nothing to do with Baoyu, he would have heard this. But everyone knew that she was not a girl anymore. She couldn't live without Baoyu for a while, but she just laughed at her for a man.

Such ridicule immediately made her face sour.

"Girl, let's go back. The big girl should be thinking about it." Zhilan helped Lin Daiyu and was about to leave.

Jia Baoyu thought of something, and walked around Xiren and ran to Daiyu, took out a string of musk skewers: "This is what I got a few days ago, and it was given by King Beijing. I left it for my sister. Take it out and play."

Lin Daiyu might as well ask him to stuff it into her hand, and she was immediately annoyed: "What a stinky man took it. I don't want it." As she said that, she threw it in Baoyu's arms and just supported the girl back.

Jia Baoyu looked at Lin Daiyu's back and was stunned for a moment.

"Second Master, let's go back." Xiren said softly.

Jia Baoyu smirked and turned around and left. When he returned to the yard, he was less interested. He felt that he was under control everywhere. He wanted to use a few silver coins, but he would be asked endlessly by Xiren. If he didn't dig out the foundation, he would definitely not take the silver casually. Even if he spent money outside, he would have to listen to Mingyan for a long time when he came back.

I just felt that Xiren's charming past was no longer there. He became disgusting like Mama Li.

Now that I want to help Qin Zhong, I have to borrow money from Lin Daimei.

Seeing that Xiren was still attentive and was about to move up, she immediately twisted her body and lay inward. Xiren was bored, and the girls in the room looked at her like a joke, feeling sad. She just felt that no one could understand her painstaking efforts. This second master was just a time to make progress. If he didn't read a few books, how could he be in the future? It's a pity that these girls were blindly urging the man to have fun. The second master, who instigated him, now he saw himself and became a beast.

Lin Daiyu returned to the yard and saw a little girl in Wang Xifeng's yard playing outside. She asked the woman who was guarding the door, "There are guests at home."

The woman said, "If you say the second girl, it's Lian**'s breasts coming."

Lin Daiyu felt uncomfortable and couldn't stand Wang Xifeng's impatience. So she took the girl back to her house, hit someone and said, "I'm tired after walking around, so I won't talk to my second sister-in-law anymore."

Wang Xifeng had just entered the door and served tea, but she had not yet entered. She said to the girl who was passing the message: "I told you girls to rest with peace of mind. I just came here and didn't bother her."

Seeing that the girl went, she said to Lin Yutong: "It's a good thing you can control her. Now you are walking around and looking at her healthier. She used to be a beauty lamp. She was worried."

"It's much better now. I used to be out of breath when I came back for a quarter of an hour. Look, I sweat a little after half an hour. Take your time." Lin Yutong pushed the peeled chestnuts to Wang Xifeng, "It's the time you should be busy now, why are you free to come to me?"

"Isn't this just hitting the old lady? Is the wife going out? I'm thanking you for your gratitude when you enter the palace. I won't come out so soon. I'll come to you for half a day." Wang Xifeng saw that the chestnut was only half the size of a little finger and the end was small, so she asked, "How can I find such a small thing?"

"This chestnut doesn't grow big. A tree can't bear a few pounds. But it tastes good." Lin Yutong smiled, "Try it."

This is for the shopkeeper to buy a stone mountain near the capital. For the convenience of quarrying, there is such a thick layer of soil on the mountain, and wild chestnut forests have grown. Lin Yutong also plans to transplant a few trees in his space next spring.

"You are a person who can enjoy it." Wang Xifeng ate and nodded repeatedly, "You have to be managed by someone like you, otherwise you will not be so comfortable."

"Don't praise me, now Ning Rong's mansions, no one will say that my second sister-in-law is capable." Lin Yutong's compliment could be considered as touching Wang Xifeng's itch.

She saw a sense of pride between her eyebrows, but she said modestly: "I am that stupid. I just treat it as a needle for me and a stick."

"Don't be humble. When it comes to the housekeeper, I'm not yours." Lin Yutong praised and whispered: "But second sister-in-law, let's say something considerate. You really don't know the situation in your mansion. This discerning person can understand at a glance, and you can't hide it. Over the years, you have put a lot of money in it."

Wang Xifeng looked around and saw that the two of them were in the room, and then he continued, "My sister is a bright and bright person." She frowned, "The days are as tight as the day, but now the mouth is like I'm sticking to my parents' home. We don't say that my parents' home has the same kind of gold and silver as if they were slapped and fat. Just say, I can't give you the supplies to my parents' home? Can my uncle and aunt?" She was angry when she said this, and couldn't even defend her.

"That's why I said you are stupid. People go back and you just pour out the money. What's the point of maintaining the decency of this family? Who can forgive the servants' mouths?" Lin Yutong took a sip of tea and smiled.

"Girl, after saying that, I will be inherited by your second brother Lian in this family. I can't tell him to fall like this now." Wang Xifeng said with a wry smile.

"What hugged your own house is yours. Now, it is just a family, consuming the future money of your couple. Everyone knows that it is not their own things. If it were me, I would work hard, and if it is not spent now, it will not be in your own hands in the future. Think about it the other way around, is this the truth?" Lin Yutong lowered his voice, "Everyone said that it is not a divorce. I will say something about a divorce today. Your aunt can treat you better than her own daughter and son.

Can't you get married? The expenses in this family are somewhat thrown into the palace to change your future, you know what you know. But if you get a future, can Brother Lian get more than Baoyu? After all, it has something to do with you. If you don't believe it, look at the future of the empress in the palace. Not to mention that she can put the eldest master and the second master and the second wife on the same level as long as she still remembers that there is a big house. It's not too late to be caring to her."

Wang Xifeng told her to say such blunt words, but the more she thought about it, the more she felt it made sense. The title of this family was inherited by her husband and her husband. Whose thing is spent on the expenses now?

"That's a good thing, it's definitely not your turn to the couple. You are taking care of any job that endures hardships and offends. The legitimate son and grandson have become housekeepers. What do you think of such a smart person?" Lin Yutong asked Wang Xifeng in confusion.

"Old lady..." Wang Xifeng's eyes were already a little flustered. In the final analysis, the reason was the old lady's attitude. The signboard of the Duke's Mansion could still be hung in this mansion because the old lady had a good deed, so she could just stay so reluctant to change the signboard.

So, the old lady is a family of dignity.

"The old lady is enough for Baoyu to be good." Lin Yutong said with a smile, "Besides, the old lady is old and can control her for a few days. Don't tell me that you have never fooled the old lady with your means."

Wang Xifeng pointed at Lin Yutong, "Your mouth is really a love and hateful thing."

Lin Yutong just clicked it. With Wang Xifeng's intelligence, it was time to wake up. He said, "If you don't spend money, don't be used to make a fool of yourself. I have a good business here, just come to me." Anyway, the Jia family's purchasing has to pass through the couple, just treating it as a kickback for the couple. It saves her from putting money on Yinzi. After doing this business, she will be able to take advantage of the three melons and two dates of Yinzi.

Wang Xifeng was so excited that she said that she was so angry that she still felt that money was too hot, so she hurriedly asked what business it was.

Lin Yutong said: "It won't be time. You will know when the time comes."

"I will do the profits of three to five thousand taels of silver." Wang Xifeng tentatively said.

"Take it up ten times." Lin Yutong revealed a little.

"Thirty or fifty thousand taels!" Wang Xifeng was frightened, then lowered her voice and said, "You can't scare me."

In a Grand View Garden, it actually doesn't cost much money, and it's all cut off by the people below. If you trade directly with Lian Er, you don't have the intermediate links, and the money you save will be more than 30,000 taels. Just going to Jiangnan to buy small actors and those exquisite and unworthy miscellaneous items, you have prepared 50,000 taels of silver. But if you ask the Lin family to run a house, you don't need to have a capital of 5,000 taels. Of course, the Lin family has a foundation in Jiangnan, and its own store connections, and the Governor of Liangjiang is on it. Lin Yutong did not intend to reduce other people's profits, but it could not hold back the price given by others. It would be impossible to spend much more than it would.

She smiled and said, "What should I do? With this money, do you run it yourself or entrust it to others to run it? If you don't charge 18,000 taels of silver in a year." In the future, you won't be unable to make a fortune for hundreds of taels of silver, and you will still use it as your own decoration.

Wang Xifeng immediately agreed, "Don't care whether I lack money or not. The time is right, just look for me. I'll find a way to get it together for you to spend as much money."

Lin Yutong didn't say in advance that she didn't need capital, and nodded in agreement with a smile.

In fact, Lin Yutong really didn't know that Wang Xifeng had already been involved in the money being placed on the seal. Wang Xifeng was happy and returned to the house happily. Ping'er came over and whispered: "Sister-in-law Wang'er sent the money just now, but at that time, the second master of Zi was there. Tell me, she was really overwhelmed. I finally found an excuse to get over it."

After Wang Xifeng received the news about Lin Yutong, she was not very interested in the 2000 taels of silver this month. When she thought about making up for the capital, she said, "Now, let's stop here. This thing hurts Yinde. Although I have never feared ghosts and gods, my stomach has not moved, and even you are useless. I don't even put half an egg. No wonder there are everything that is said outside. This may be a reason for damage to Yinde."

Ping'er 'spoiled' her and laughed, "Grandma has heard some dirty words? Come back and talk to me."

"I'm really not joking with you." Wang Xifeng smiled in her heart and said, "I just felt something when I saw the situation of the Lin family. You said, if Mr. Lin hadn't found his cousin Lin back, there would be no son in this family, who could have passed on the huge family business to? I've been calculating all day long, and I could spend a few more. Even my dowry, I'll dowry for my elder sister in the future. No matter how much money I earn, who can I give to? Even if you have given birth to one, we have to keep it in our knees since we were young, and we will rely on it when we are old."

Ping'er's eyes turned red, "What kind of monster is this? Come back and get this to provoke people."

"Silly girl, what I'm talking about is the right thing." Wang Xifeng tilted to the kang and said.

"But the wife asked..." Ping'er said uncertainly, "How should we reply."
To be continued...
