Not to mention the complacency and comfort that the new emperor felt after reading the letter.
Such a high-ranking official in the border areas, and the once famous Mei Tanhua in the court, finally succumbed to his imperial power.
As a reward to make the new emperor feel comfortable, about two or three months after the draft, a daughter of a family with neither high nor low status was pointed out by the emperor to Lin Ruhai, the salt patrol censor far away in Yangzhou, as his successor.
This is a show girl who entered the election through the oldest age line. Their daughter has been notified in advance by the emperor's people.
The family members are really willing to this arrangement.
After all, it was much better than expected to be informed by the emperor in advance and agree to find a good home for his daughter, who had already missed her flowering period due to observance of filial piety.
When the dust settled on this matter and the emperor's decree was sent to Yangzhou with great fanfare, the Jia family, the former in-laws, got the news.
After Jia Mu suddenly heard the 'bad news', she was stunned for a moment and then started to cry.
She took a group of girls behind her and went straight to the courtyard where Lin Daiyu now lives.
As soon as grandma and grandson met, Jia Mu hugged Lin Daiyu and started crying.
Lin Daiyu was very confused. She supported her grandmother and asked, "Ancestor, what's wrong with you?"
"My poor granddaughter, you lost your mother's love at a young age. Now your father is about to marry a new wife, and you have to lose half of your father's love."
"Grandma, what's going on?" Lin Daiyu, who was only ten years old now, couldn't help but shed tears as she was hugged by Mother Jia.
But the nanny who was following Lin Daiyu was sent here by Lin Ruhai. How could she let the old lady instigate the relationship between Lin Daiyu and her daughter?
Listen to this, Master Lin is marrying a new wife?
Then this is a good thing!
Nanny Lin's heart changed, and she knelt down in front of Jia Mu with a little anxiety.
"Please make it clear to Mrs. Jia that we, as individuals, and the young lady are bound to suffer both prosperity and loss."
"I just ask the old lady to explain to us clearly the ins and outs of the new wife and the old wife, so that we can discuss together what course our young lady should take."
After hearing what the Lin family's nanny said, Jia Mu felt much better.
She wiped away her tears and signaled to Mrs. Wang who was following behind her to finish the rest of her words.
It can be said that Mrs. Wang, who worships Buddha all day long, is a compassionate person.
She looked at Lin Daiyu with a little worry, and told the emperor's intention to marry her.
"The wife your father was accused of is the legitimate daughter of Dr. Yushitai."
"In the past few years, people who had been engaged to their family called off the engagement because they had observed mourning twice in a row."
"I originally thought that it would be difficult to find someone else, but I don't know what happened, but this year she actually appeared on the list of candidate show girls."
"Everyone thought there was something fishy about this person. It turns out that His Majesty the Emperor prepared this for your father."
"It seems that our brother-in-law is really trusted by His Majesty."
"It's just that this new lady has entered the door. Our Jia family can't be regarded as the real in-laws of the Lin family."
Upon hearing this, Jia Mu's face turned serious, and she stabbed the longevity stick in her hand into the ground: "He dares!"
"My granddaughter is still in our Jia family. This is the only flesh and blood between the Lin family and my poor daughter."
"If he doesn't recognize us, what will my poor granddaughter do?"
After saying that, Jia Mu hugged Lin Daiyu into her arms and continued to cry.
But the grandma who was kneeling on the ground smiled in her heart. She secretly remembered the names of this family in her heart. She thought to herself that she only hoped that the later wife would be sensible. If she really wanted to
When I leave the cabinet, I would rather be in the Lin family than in the Jia family.
The matter ended with the Lin family's repeated consolation. Jia's mother had cried enough and was curious enough and left.
Lin Daiyu was really exhausted physically and mentally after this day's turmoil. She leaned on her couch. After all, she was influenced by Jia Mu: "Mommy, I'm so worried. If this is a good thing, that's all. But if it's
She thinks I get too much attention from my father, so what if she tries to teach me secretly?"
Nanny Lin was sent to Lin Daiyu's side, and it was effective at this time.
This very useful and clear-minded nanny was analyzed by Lin Daiyu.
"Miss, I have made a note of this family. Starting tomorrow, I will film Shunde and the others going out to find out about this family's family tradition."
"In addition, I know a few old sisters who are tutors in their official families. I will ask you about the reputation of this future lady when she was a girl."
"Finally, in the past two days, you should be diligent in going to the homes of Han Hanlin and Liu Shidu to see these things. A few days ago, Yangzhou just sent a car of local specialties. I will ask someone to prepare a gift for you. Go and see it.
Look at those aunts."
"These people may have gotten the message a long time ago. When they see you coming to the door, they will naturally understand why."
"From their mouths, the lady will definitely hear relatively true news."
"It's better than the old lady just hearing a piece of news and hurriedly coming to see the young lady to cry... In the end, we don't know what the new lady is like. Is it a little premature to cry?"
When Nanny Lin said this, Lin Daiyu thought it was true... She had a clearer mind than anyone else, so she simply put it down and made plans for tomorrow.
When the ten-year-old child was most sleepy, Grandma Lin asked the girls around her to serve Daiyu to sleep, and went out to arrange things for tomorrow.
As expected, the servants of the Lin family were not vegetarians. Early the next morning, they divided into two groups and went to inquire about it.
Nanny Lin first led Lin Daiyu to the minister's house where she went most often. Then she took some time to wait for her old sister at the side door of a noble family.
Both of them came from the palace, and now this person is a very popular figure in the capital.
The two have resumed contact since Daiyu came to Beijing.
The relationship between old sisters is not entangled with interests, but they just keep each other company, and it is getting better and better.
Now that Aunt Lin suddenly came to see her, this nanny who was familiar with girls from all walks of life had already guessed why she came.
So she was very happy and told Nanny Lin everything about the new lady.
"The eldest daughter of the imperial censor's family is a pitiful person. She is not very beautiful, and she can't be compared with Jia Min, who was once famous in the capital."
"But his reputation is excellent. He is gentle, honest, and very tolerant."
"It's just that her grandfather and grandmother died one after another, and they happened to be connected together."
"The average person can wait for a girl for six years, right? If you wait, you have to wait until you are in your early twenties."
