Lin Yutong reached out to pick up the tea cup, opened the tea lid, and skimmed off the foam on it.
She was very angry in her heart, but she really couldn't express it. She was worried that if they blocked their way forward, they would find another way and do other stupid things. She didn't care, but what if Honghui was implicated?
manage?
I am not a saint, and I will not treat all children the same way I treat Honghui and Hongzhao.
She treats Hong Yun, Mo Yaqi, and even Hong Shi with care, just because they are all children. No matter what these children will look like in the future, they are as clean as a blank sheet of paper now.
Hong Yun didn't say anything. It was Mo Yaqi and Hong Shi who were surrounded by people arranged by the fourth master. They did not prevent Li from seeing the children, but those provocative and messy words would not reach the ears of these children.
She knew what Fourth Master meant. He was afraid that his own children would be like his brothers in the future.
He was afraid that he would face the disaster of Xiao Qiang in the future, and brothers would fight against each other and kill each other.
Therefore, he tried his best to get the children to fall in love with each other.
Lin Yutong understands this thought. If he cannot be kind to these children, then the fourth master's trust will not fall on him. Without the protection of his mother, Honghui and Hongzhao will be in trouble in the future.
So what will happen?
This is a multiple-choice question where you don’t have to choose to know the result.
Lin Yutong put down the tea cup and said to the eldest wife: "You don't have to be too hasty about Sister Xian's child. The child is still young. It doesn't have to be Hongyun. Don't worry, I will give her a good future."
There are many clan members and many iron haters. These are all good candidates.
The eldest lady was naturally happy when she got the right word. In their view, the fourth master is just a Baylor now, and he may be a prince in the future. A prince's bastard is not irreplaceable. If he has a good future, no matter how good it is,
Already.
Who would have thought that Hongyun’s Fujin would be the second Fujin in the future?
She happily agreed and didn't even mind that Lin Yutong didn't keep her for dinner. She took the little girl and left.
Lin Yutong's face suddenly dropped. He still had to tell the fourth master about this matter. He should come forward to knock on the Ulanala family to save them from confusion. In any case, they are Honghui's maternal family and want to get rid of them.
, this is not possible. No matter how indifferent they get along, in the eyes of others, they are still one. Sometimes, their actions can easily be linked to themselves. When Honghui is two years older, he should contact him.
It’s up to Honghui.
This is something Lin Yutong will never allow.
When the fourth master came back in the evening, Lin Yutong waited on him and explained the matter clearly.
"What? You don't want to?" Fourth Master raised his eyebrows in surprise and said, "It would be great if Mo Yaqi married into your mother's family."
"I can't think like that. I want to ask Hongyun and the others to get closer to Honghui. I know it in my heart. If my mother's children are up to date, I won't say this anymore. The one with the right age is Xingde. This child is
There's nothing wrong with it, but she's a little soft-eared. I know my sister-in-law. She's the best at maneuvering. After marrying our Mo Yaqi, what benefits do we expect Mo Yaqi to bring to the family? I want to call her Mo Ya.
Qi, like Ba Fujin, travels around and accumulates connections for the man. Even if the man is willing to give up, I won't be willing to do it. Isn't this a trick on the child? Therefore, this marriage cannot be done. I don't agree with it." Lin Yutong said very decisively.
The Fourth Master leaned back on the bed, fanned himself with a cattail leaf fan in his hand, and asked, "Then you won't agree to the matter between your niece and Hong Yun?"
"I'm afraid that this girl will follow her mother and have a scheming mind." Lin Yutong said: "If I meet such a family member, I will consider myself unlucky. Don't trick Hong Yun again.
Already."
The fourth master laughed and said: "I have never seen someone who neglects his mother's family like this."
"If my mother were here, I wouldn't be in such trouble." Lin Yutong sighed.
Fei Yanggu was an internal minister. He was the former commander of Kangxi's bodyguards and an absolute confidant. Otherwise, the emperor would not have remembered to give his daughter a future if everyone else had died.
The fourth master nodded, "I understand what you are thinking. I will talk to Wuge and the others. If I can't send him to a foreign post for a few years, it is indeed a critical time in the capital. I will ask someone to watch you.
Don't worry." When it comes to Honghui and Hongzhao, he will naturally handle it carefully.
The two talked for half the night and then rested. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Li came early the next morning and insisted on seeing Fourth Master and Lin Yutong outside.
Breakfast has been served. Hong Yun is also there. He wants to give the child face and cannot stop him.
"Please come in, Fujin." Lin Yutong said, and said to the girl on the side: "Bring me a pair of bowls and chopsticks."
Hongyun suddenly felt uncomfortable.
Mrs. Li came in and presented gifts to Fourth Master and Lin Yutong. Honghui and Hongyun also presented gifts to Mrs. Li.
"Everyone, please sit down." After the fourth master finished speaking, he said to Mrs. Li, "It's early in the morning. Do you have anything to do?"
Li said: "I heard from Mo Yaqi that Fujin's niece is a pretty good girl." She praised her inexplicably.
Lin Yutong said: "Pomegranate, put the breakfast in the inner room for the eldest brother and the second brother." It's better not to talk nonsense in front of the children.
Hong Hui and Hong Yunzhan stood up. Both of their children were old. Hong Yun couldn't tell what was going on, and his face suddenly turned red.
After the two children left, Mrs. Li continued: "I think the girl from Ulanala's family is quite nice, and she matches Hongyun in age."
She actually thinks so?
The fourth master's expression changed and he wanted to reprimand him. But Hongyun was still inside? What did the child think?
Lin Yutong rushed to speak: "The child is still young, why are you anxious? If it is really suitable, how can I stop thinking about Hong Yun? I discussed it with you for half a night last night, but it can't be done."
Li's face turned red and she said, "Hong Yun is also a good boy..."
"It's because I'm a good boy that I didn't agree." Lin Yutong said: "When did you see me return to my parents' home? When did Ulanala's family come to visit, when did you see me leave food? Have I ever taken the initiative to call my nieces and nephews?
Have you been here? Have you ever asked Honghui to go to Ulanala’s house?”
As soon as Lin Yutong finished speaking, Hongyun inside couldn't help but glance at Honghui. Honghui nodded. He had indeed never been to Ulanala's house.
Mrs. Li looked at Lin Yutong with some confusion. Which woman doesn't rely on her natal family? Fujin put the matter of her discord with her natal family in front of her, which made her feel at a loss for a moment.
"You Ye and Fujin are worried about the child's affairs..." Fourth Master opened his mouth to continue. What follows will definitely not sound good.
Lin Yutong smiled and said: "After I have chosen the candidate, I will ask you to go over the details. We will discuss it and make a decision at that time." If my mother doesn't participate, I will decide who will. If she doesn't do well, I won't have to complain. Lin Yutong
If I decisively stopped Fourth Master, I would not dare to take this responsibility.
But saying this seems to be very embarrassing to Mr. Li.
Li Shi said, "Well, don't disturb me and Fujin as they have dinner. It's time to get up. I won't keep you here anymore." After saying that, he turned around and left. Maybe he felt that he was being reckless.
Fourth Master glared at Lin Yutong, "You interrupt me at every turn, you are really amazing now."
"It's better for me to talk about family matters." Lin Yutong took one of the steamed buns and put it on the plate for the fourth master, and said, "Would you like to heat it up?" Then he asked the two children inside, "Hurry up.
Eat while you're done, and after you're done, I'll ask your Ama to take you to the palace."
Honghui shouted from inside: "I feel uncomfortable in the palace, Mother. Not to mention the heat, the taste is not good either."
There aren't even any trees to provide shade inside, and the water has become stagnant. How can you feel better?
The fourth master scolded: "I grew up in the palace, why do I feel uncomfortable? Is the Ministry of Internal Affairs short of your ice?"
There was no sound inside.
Before leaving the house, Hong Yun whispered: "My dear mother, you can't eat the ice in the palace." She was very resentful.
"You have a weak spleen and stomach. You are not allowed to eat even iced food, let alone ice. Let it dry in the well." Lin Yutong said and then said to Honghui: "Look at him and don't let him eat randomly.
"
After sending away the two children, the whole house was half empty.
I heard that the next day, the fourth master called a man from the Ulanala family to come over. Lin Yutong didn't care about what he said. This matter was not a problem for the fourth master.
Lin Yutong was concentrating on raising her baby again. When she was about to get out of the walker, she found that Hongzhao was already able to walk on his own. First, he walked in circles on the couch. There were mothers and girls standing beside him.
, the apron was also wrapped with cotton mats, so it couldn’t hit him at all.
When this kid was placed on the ground, he didn't dare to move his legs.
The Fourth Master found it very interesting, "This guy has a cautious temperament."
p!
What can such a tiny child see?
The couple was playing with their children when they saw Su Peisheng walking in and handing a post to the fourth master.
Fourth Master smiled and then handed it to Lin Yutong.
"Whose family is it from?" Lin Yutong took it and took a look at it, and was stunned for a moment. The post was from Babele Mansion. It turned out that Ba Ye wanted to recruit new people.
"Whose girl is this?" Lin Yutong asked again.
The fourth master shook his head, "Baby, this matter is being handled in a low-key manner. I didn't know about it beforehand. But the above just said that the brothers should come over and have fun. Obviously, they don't want to make it a big deal. It shouldn't be an important family."
Lin Yutong also thought it would be Zhang Zhibi's daughter who gave birth to Hongwang, or Mao Erge's daughter who gave birth to Ba Ye's daughter.
The result is neither!
She is a woman surnamed Wang. As a concubine and a member of the Jin Dynasty, she is required to submit a royal decree.
Lin Yutong checked the historical materials in the space and found that there was indeed a concubine named Wang, and there was even an unknown named Xiang Fujin.
The one who gave birth to Hongwang was the maid Zhang, and the one who gave birth to the eighth master's daughter was Teng's maid Mao.
Maid, she should be the maid of honor.
Tengnu is a woman who comes as a dowry.
So who is this Mao family? Is it the Bafujin? Or the Wang family? Or is it the Xifujin who has not yet appeared?
I have read many books before, and they all say that Ba Ye is infatuated. But in detail, just from the records, there are at least five women who can be verified. They are no less than anyone else.
Where did his infatuation come from?
Since I posted an invitation, there was no reason not to go. Lin Yutong really didn't want to go, so the man took a concubine and ran over to congratulate his wife.
What a happy bird!
After Hongzhao was settled, and Aunt Yuan was watching carefully, Lin Yutong followed Fourth Master out.
The two families lived next door, and Lin Yutong didn't want to be bored in the sedan, so he walked all the way there. It was really not that far away.
The fourth master took a look at Lin Yutong. His skin was white and tender, without any blemishes. It was a hot day, and he didn't put on powder. But he didn't know how she did it. His eyelashes were long and curled, making his eyes look darker and brighter. His lips were moist.
, with only lipstick on, it looks like pink milk jelly, which makes people want to take a bite. The goose-yellow cheongsam is wrapped around the body, making the waist look slender. Because Hongzhao has not yet weaned, his chest is bulging. There are large peonies on the cheongsam.
, blooming on the chest. The sleeves were wide, and when he raised his hand, a section of his white wrist was exposed.
Like this, I still want to walk outside! Dreaming!
"It's sunny, let's take the sedan." The fourth master couldn't help but said, stuffing Lin Yutong into the sedan.
The sedan went directly into the gate and stopped at the second gate. Bafujin, wearing a bright red cheongsam, stood at the door to greet him.
"The fourth sister-in-law is here. The ninth and tenth brothers and sisters are inside. I will take my sister-in-law in." Bafujin said politely.
Lin Yutong smiled and said: "I live nearby, but I arrived late. What a sin! A sin!"
The two of them chatted and walked all the way inside. In the summer, the banquet was held on a pavilion in the lake, which was quite cool.
Shi Fujin met Lin Yutong and said, "Sister-in-law Four is really getting younger and younger. She has given birth to two children, and her figure is not out of shape."
"It's been a bitter summer, so I've lost some weight." Lin Yutong sat over and didn't ask for tea. He just asked the girls to pour a cup of sour plum soup and drank it slowly.
After Ba Fujin left, Jiu Fujin came over and said, "Eighth Master did this suddenly, without any news at all. Why is it so sudden? Eighth sister-in-law can even apply two kilograms of powder on her face. I guess it's been quite troublesome these days.
Heart."
"Others don't know the news, so Master Jiu doesn't know the news either?" Lin Yutong said: "These men only hide everything from the women in their families. They are probably all well-informed about external matters."
Jiu Fujin exclaimed: "This is really an injustice to our master. He really doesn't know. Just now, the eighth sister-in-law complained about me and said that I kept it a secret. It's a conscience of heaven and earth. How can I know about this?"
Lin Yutong didn't bother and asked: "Do you know whose daughter it is? There has never been anyone with status on Master Ba's side."
"She is said to be the niece of the eighth master's family, her surname is Wang. She is unknown." Jiu Fujin shook his head, "I looked at the eighth sister-in-law and was a little confused."
Just as they were talking, Ba Fujin came over with three Fujin and five Fujin, and then turned out.
After a while, these blessings were gathered together. Of course, everyone except the crown princess and the big blessing came.
No matter when women are together, the eternal theme is gossip. Now, there are a few more people sharing gossip about the old couple.
Over the years, who doesn't envy Ba Fujin? After all, who hasn't been exhausted by Xi Fujin? It was Xi Fujin who gave birth to the child, Xi Fujin was the one who was pampered, and Xi Fujin was the one who was remembered by the men.
Fujin is a tragedy. Apart from being a housekeeper and managing the men's little wives, they have nothing else to do. Isn't it the same for Lin Yutong, the original owner?
But except for Ba Fujin, the rest of the Eighth Masters are all girls. What are girls? They are people who can be beaten to death and no one cares about them.
But Fujin is different.
Before the Manchus entered the customs, they had polygamy. At that time, the power of Xifujin was greater than it is now. Although it has been sinicized now, its power is not small. He is still the master.
If these side Fujins were to cause trouble, there would really be nothing they could do.
Lin Yutong sighed in his heart. Women never have many demands. There are a lot of women like Ba Ye, but as long as they are not given a status, they are rare in everyone's eyes. It's good for Ba Fujin.
While they were talking, voices could be faintly heard on the other side of the lake. Bafujin smiled and said, "It's cool here in this hot day. Let's each occupy one end and no one will disturb the other?"
Lin Yutong turned around and saw that the Fourth Master was leaning on the railing by the lake, talking to the Thirteenth Master.
The voice from the woman's side was obviously quieter.
Suddenly, I heard the loud voice of Fourteenth: "Bago! You should have been like this a long time ago. If not for anything else, but for the sake of the heirs, it's time to join the new family."
Here Bafujin's face suddenly dropped.
Fourteenth Fujin pinched her handkerchief and covered her face. Whether she has children or not has nothing to do with us. What do you want to say? My Lord, you can’t offend someone this much. She said with a smile on her face, “Eighth Sister-in-law”
, our master is talking nonsense when he is drunk? You must not take it to heart."
The little person in her heart at this moment wishes she could tear the fourteen pieces into eighteen pieces. You are so happy with your words, but you asked me to tell others trivial things here. You yourself are not enough, and you still encourage others to do the same as you.
.What's wrong? If you want to recruit someone next time, do you think I can agree easily?
Ba Fujin gave a stiff smile: "No problem! The fourteenth brother has always been outspoken. Who would mind?"
Just as he finished speaking, he heard Fourteenth's voice coming again, "Brother Bage, it's not me talking about you. You are too spoiled to Sister-in-law Eight. Women can't be so indulgent. Look at your brother and sister, I'm not a nurse."
It's smooth and smooth. If I tell you that I have fallen in love with someone's daughter, I will definitely recruit her to my house. Women should be like this."
Lin Yutong thought to himself that the fourteenth old man was a loser.
She didn't dare to look at Shi Shi Fujin's face now. Seeing that she was holding a tea cup in her hand, her teeth were clenching loudly. It seemed as if she could smash the cup in her hand across the lake at the next moment.
