Lin Ruhai naturally has many relatives and friends in the capital, but when it comes to the closest relationship, it can only be Rongguo Mansion.
When arriving in the capital, he did not go to Rongguo Mansion but visited other places first. This would be detrimental to his reputation and would also go against the filial piety advocated by the Zhou Dynasty.
Even if you want to separate from the circle of meritorious deeds headed by the four bastards and eight princes, you have to do so on a polite and respectful level.
This is the principle of playing through the world of mortals.
This time they visited Rongguo Mansion. Lin Zhao and Daiyu were ready. As a girl from the Lin family, Daiyu brought eight maids and three nannies, led by Aunt Rong. There were also several young men behind the car. When they arrived at Rongguo Mansion,
At the national palace, Lai's boy came to open the corner door, but the carriage stopped.
Lin Zhao was riding on the horse and said nothing, while Daiyu was sitting in the car and just listened.
I only heard Lin Yang, the chief steward of the Lin Mansion, say: "I am a rough man. I don't understand the rules of the Rongguo Mansion. I only know the difference between dignity, order and intimacy. I heard that when relatives of your mansion, the Wang family, visited in the past, your mansion opened the middle gate to welcome them.
If you want to talk about superiority and inferiority, after the prince of the county was under the control of the prince of the county, my Lin family is also a century-old scholarly family. In terms of title, my eldest son is a first-class loyal and filial viscount, on the same level as the eldest master in the house.
In terms of official positions, my eldest son is a third-rank Jin Yiwei commander and his colleagues are much higher than the second master. In terms of closeness, our eldest daughter is a serious nephew and niece in the family, but she wants to go through the corner door of the slaves.
I can’t be a guest at my grandma’s house!”
The concierge of the Rongguo Mansion hurriedly told this to Jia Mu and others, but Jia Zheng only said: "Confused, confused! The Lin family's nephew is a serious lord. You are desperate and want them to go through the small door!"
After leaving Jia's mother, he and his brother Jia She personally came out to welcome her.
After the Lin brothers and sisters entered Jia's house, Jia's mother naturally invited them to her house. Lin Zhao took his sister to greet him. When Jia's mother saw that he had a fair complexion, delicate eyebrows, and good appearance and figure, she couldn't help but feel sad.
He was overjoyed, rubbed Daiyu and cried for a while, then led the brothers and sisters to meet the elders in the house, and said: "Call the girls."
Lin Zhao hurriedly said: "Old lady, no, men and women are on guard. Although we are relatives in the house, I am the outsider after all. Since the female relatives are coming, I will go out with my uncles and brothers to talk."
Jia's mother smiled and said, "What a polite boy." She asked Jia Lian to lead him to get close to Jia She and Jia Zheng.
This Lin Zhao came to the capital as a commander of the Imperial Guards and was a baron of loyalty and filial piety. He was highly regarded by the emperor and was about to rise to prominence. Jia She and Jia Zheng were also very willing to get close to him, and Jia Zhen of the East Prefecture came to join in the fun.
A banquet was quickly set up, and the uncle, nephew, and guests sat down to drink.
After a while, Lin Zhao's eyes flashed and he looked at the banquet and said: "I often hear that there is a young master in my family who was born with a jade in his head. He is very good in appearance and knowledge. My nephew has been yearning for him for a long time. I wonder if I can meet him?"
Jia Zheng was very happy after hearing this. He asked where Baoyu was and heard that it was at the old lady's place. He quickly sent someone to fetch him.
…
But it was said that Lin Zhao went to the front to chat with Jia Zheng and others. Daiyu was pulled by Jia Mu behind, pointing everyone to Daiyu and asking her to pay homage to them one by one.
"This is your eldest aunt, this is your second aunt, and this is Sister-in-law Zhu, the daughter-in-law of your eldest brother Xianzhu. This is Feng Yatou, the daughter-in-law of your eldest brother Xianzhu. You met her yesterday."
Immediately, Jia Mu sent someone to invite the three girls.
Not long after, I saw several women and maids walking in surrounded by three green and tender girls.
Apart from other things, there are really not many ugly people in the Jia family, especially the younger generation. All of them have good looks. Although they are not as good as Lin Daiyu, the three girls in front of them are also good-looking.
Really impressive.
The three of them are all dressed in the same way. The older one looks a little reserved and silent, but he is approachable. The youngest one is not tall enough and can't be seen clearly, but he is also delicate in nature.
Yuxue is extremely cute, and the most outstanding one should be the one in the middle. She has slender shoulders and slim waist, handsome eyes and eyebrows.
Lady Daiyu greeted her again, and the two men acknowledged each other before returning to their seats.
When it was almost time to see the visitor, Daiyu presented the gifts she had prepared one by one.
Lin Zhao has a lot of money, so this gift is very expensive.
Jia Mu got an ebony crutch, Mrs.
Even Jia Huan also has a golden ring.
As for Jia Baoyu, since he was called "Baoyu" and was born with a jade in his mouth, he was naturally given a jade pendant.
It's just that Mrs. Wang is a little embarrassed.
Because Daiyu gave her a beautifully decorated Buddhist scripture.
Because Mrs. Wang eats fast and chants Buddha's name all year round.
It’s not strange to be polite to many people.
Seeing that every gift sent by the Lin family is extremely exquisite and precious, it goes without saying that the Lin family is rich and extravagant. No one would say that the Lin family came to visit just because of the autumn breeze.
Even the maids looked at Lin Daiyu with smiles in their eyes.
In fact, Lin Daiyu was indeed pure and clean, and she was very similar to Jia Min, except that Jia's mother loved her so much that she hugged her and loved her dearly.
In the eyes of everyone in Jia's family, this is great luck. To be so favored by the old lady of Jia's family. In the past, there was only one Jia Baoyu in the family, and others could not envy him. Suddenly, a "outsider"
"Some people don't feel very good about being deprived of this favor.
The person who bears the brunt here is probably Mrs. Wang.
Since ancient times, there have been many conflicts between aunts and sisters, but little harmony. At that time, Jia Min was aloof and aloof, quite a bit arrogant, but Mrs. Wang was illiterate and only focused on those yellow and white things.
, likes to exercise power. So Jia Min thinks she is vulgar and never likes to deal with her.
Mrs. Wang is also a petty person, and there are often some conflicts between her sister-in-law, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. In the end, she is the one who is unlucky! So Mrs. Wang has a grudge against Jia Min.
Every time she thought of the "grievances" of those years, Mrs. Wang only felt that her heart ached so much. After all these years, not only did she not forget those grudges, but they deepened day by day, even though Jia Min had been married for many years and had not been married for many years.
When she returned home, she still gritted her teeth with hatred.
Now she suddenly saw Daiyu who looked so similar to Jia Min. The gifts she gave to others were all expensive, and she gave him a book. It was strange that Mrs. Wang was happy, so she was upset again. Look
Looking at Daiyu, she felt disgusted, especially when she saw Jia's mother holding Daiyu up to the same level as her precious phoenix egg. She felt that Jia Min was really her nemesis.
Shandong still wants to send such a daughter to attract her attention!
Thinking of this, Mrs. Wang's mouth felt thorny, "I see that this girl is thin and pale, as if she has a deficiency, but does she take medicine regularly?"
Don't marry the daughter of five, the eldest daughter of a widowed woman, the eldest daughter of a widow, the one who is ill, the one who punishes, the daughter of a promiscuous family, and the daughter of a rebellious family.
This shows the harsh oppression of women in the world.
Although deficiencies are not considered serious diseases, in some respects they are even more avoidable than so-called serious diseases, because deficiencies may often make it difficult for children to have children, and in this era of "unfilial piety, there are three consequences: no offspring."
In the era of "big", this alone is enough to wipe out all the advantages of a woman. No normal family would be willing to marry a daughter-in-law who has difficulty in producing children, and let her have a lot of good things!
If word gets out that Lin Daiyu has a deficiency, her marriage will definitely become difficult in the future. This Mrs. Wang has really sinister intentions!
Although Daiyu is smart, she is still young and has not thought of Mrs. Wang's sinister intentions at this moment. However, Aunt Rong behind Daiyu frowned.
"Uncle, Mrs. Wang is too worried." Aunt Rong stood up and saluted Mrs. Jia, without looking at Mrs. Wang, and said calmly.
