Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang have obviously forgotten that the Lin family is a single generation. Not to mention that the mistress will not have the idea of the public treasury. Even if she does, she will not give it to her son in the end.
Later, Mrs. Wang began to laugh at Jia Min in her heart. Why are you pretending to be noble in front of me? You are just like your own mother, stealing the public treasury at home.
Jia Mu said proudly: "Now you understand. The Lin family not only has wealth, but also Lin Ruhai, the Minister of Household Affairs. Don't just focus on your own three-acre land."
For the sake of the Lin family's property, Mrs. Wang had to bow to Jia Mu and said, "My daughter-in-law is stupid, but the old lady has the foresight. Now the relationship between Uncle Lin and our family is not good, old lady, what should we do next?"
Jia Mu was no longer happy and wanted to scold Mrs. Wang. If it weren't for her stupid behavior, how could Lin Ruhai donate more than two million taels of silver to the court.
"Call the doctor, I'm sick."
Mrs. Wang immediately understood what Jia Mu meant. Pretending to be sick was the most basic skill of a housewife.
The Jia family's most common doctor was Dr. Wang from the Imperial Hospital. He was very aware of such things in the Jia family. He thought that Jia's mother was going to teach the descendant again, so she didn't expose it, so she prescribed a lot of tonics and told her to have a good life and take good care of herself.
Naturally, the red envelopes from the Jia family were indispensable, and this time the red envelopes were extra generous. Doctor Wang was also a shrewd person and said nothing to anyone.
After the imperial doctor left, Jia Mu also woke up in time and said: "Now our children and grandchildren are in front of us, but Min'er is missing. I only sent for Uncle Lin and Daiyu, but they haven't seen each other for some days."
.Thinking about it in a panic.”
Jia's mother spoke, and as a filial son, Jia Zheng immediately said: "Lian'er, Lian'er's wife, go and invite brother-in-law Lin and your niece to come."
As a result, Jia Lian blocked Lin Ruhai at home as soon as she returned home from court.
"Uncle Lin, for Aunt Min's sake, please go see the old lady." After Jia Lian finished talking about Jia's mother being ill in bed, she begged Lin Ruhai.
Lin Ruhai knew that he would never show up and would not dissuade Jia Mu. Lin Daiyu was a junior, so some words were not easy to say.
"Wait for me to change clothes, and then I can go see the old lady."
After receiving Lin Ruhai's promise, Jia Lian immediately relaxed and waited in the living room.
Things didn't go well for Wang Xifeng.
"Sister Feng, please stop talking. I need to ask my father for permission first if I can go see my grandmother. Although I miss my grandmother, I can't go against my father's wishes."
Wang Xifeng never thought that it would be so difficult to persuade Lin Daiyu, but she still had to persuade her no matter how difficult it was. "Don't worry, sister, uncle Lin heard that the old lady was sick and bedridden, and he won't stop you from seeing the old lady. This time, your second brother Lian and I will
When I come here, I also want to invite Uncle Lin to come over."
Lin Daiyu also knew in her heart that this trip to the Jia Mansion was essential, but she could not agree hastily before Lin Ruhai made her decision.
At this moment, someone from Lin Ruhai's courtyard sent a message to Lin Daiyu to prepare and take her to Jia's house.
Wang Xifeng also breathed a sigh of relief, and finally completed the task. Every time he came to the Lin family, it was not an easy task. He thought he could talk to Lin Ruhai through Lin Daiyu, but he didn't expect that there was no movement on his side, but on Jia Lian's side.
Lin Ruhai was moved by this.
Jia Mu wanted to take advantage of her illness to take advantage of Lin Ruhai, but Lin Ruhai was not as doting on her as Jia She and Jia Zheng were.
After a train of pity words, Lin Ruhai made no move.
Jia Mu couldn't help it. She forgot to pretend to be sick and said to Lin Ruhai: "Son-in-law, if you recognize Min'er as your wife and me as your mother-in-law, please help out the family. When the marriage is smooth, I will definitely not forget you."
of credit.”
Lin Ruhai planned to teach Jia Mu a lesson this time, so she ignored the presence of some juniors in the family.
"Even if the old lady said this, I can only do my best in the Lin family." Lin Ruhai took out a wooden box and specially handed it to Jia Zheng.
"Inside this wooden box are the house deeds and land deeds, which are the dowry prepared by my mother-in-law for Min'er. When Min'er followed me out of the capital, she handed them over to my family for management. Now these things are regarded as Yu'er's filial piety for Min'er.
The old lady’s.”
Jia Min's dowry was quite large, and Jia's mother spent a lot of money on it. This was why Mrs. Wang had a grudge against Jia Min.
After hearing what Lin Ruhai said, Jia Mu was not satisfied, but she could accept it. After all, it was unrealistic to ask Lin Ruhai to give out hundreds of thousands of taels all at once.
Mrs. Wang's face became very ugly. Jia Min's dowry had been disposed of by her a long time ago, and the things Lin Ruhai took out were simply worthless.
Lin Ruhai looked at the expressions of the people in the room and knew that these things were handled privately by Mrs. Wang, and no one else knew about it.
Mother Jia declined and said: "If it weren't for the family's poor health, I wouldn't reach out to you. Now I can only feel sorry for Min'er. When the family recovers, I will definitely prepare another one to supplement Yu'er's health."
superior."
Lin Ruhai sneered and said, "No need, we can't get these things back anyway."
The atmosphere in the room suddenly changed. No one knew why Lin Ruhai said this.
Jia Mu said dissatisfiedly: "If you don't want to take it out, you can take it back. Does humiliating the Jia family like this deserve the respect that the Duke of the country has for you?"
Jia Daishan helped Lin Ruhai a lot in the beginning, but no matter how much kindness he showed, it could not compare to what the Jia family did to the Lin family.
Lin Ruhai said: "The old lady should ask the person who managed these properties for Min'er. Yu'er and I have already met the old lady, so we won't stay here for a long time."
After saying that, Lin Ruhai looked coldly at Jia Baoyu, who was slowly approaching Lin Daiyu, and was so scared that he shrank back again.
Before coming, Aunt Zhang and Aunt Liu went to Lin Ruhai and told him that Jia Baoyu was an adult and they could not let him get close to Lin Daiyu. This was what they saw when they entered Jia's house last time.
Lin Ruhai's face suddenly turned black. He almost believed Jia Mu's words and betrothed his precious daughter to such a libertine.
Seeing that Lin Daiyu was about to leave with Lin Ruhai, Jia Baoyu didn't care anymore and shouted to Jia Mu: "Old ancestor, please let Sister Lin stay and play with me, okay?"
"Bastard." Lin Ruhai and Jia Zheng shouted to Jia Baoyu at the same time.
Both of them were angry. Jia Baoyu had never seen such a situation before and jumped directly into Jia Mu's arms.
Jia's mother didn't care about anything else, and faced Lin Ruhai, Jia Zheng shouted: "Why are you scaring him? Ruhai, why don't you let Yu'er stay with me, an old woman?"
They say they are accompanying Jia Mu, but actually their purpose is not for Jia Baoyu.
Lin Ruhai is currently planning to let Lin Daiyu get in touch with noble ladies in the capital and make a few friends. If she is really allowed to stay, what will be left of Lin Daiyu's reputation?
Lin Ruhai ignored Jia's mother and said directly to Jia Zheng: "Cunzhou needs to teach such a misbehaving child to avoid becoming a dandy."
Lin Ruhai's merciless words went straight into Jia Zheng's heart.
Jia Zheng felt like his face had been ripped off. He couldn't bear it anymore and hit Jia Baoyu directly with the folding fan in his hand.
"I'll beat you to death, you ignorant bastard."
Jia Baoyu was already nestled in Jia Mu's arms, so the only place Jia Zheng could hit was his back, which would not cause any serious harm to him.
Lin Ruhai didn't care about the farce in the Jia family and left with Lin Daiyu.
