Red Mansion Daiyu, the Rise of the Lin Family

"Second brother! This is Daiyu, and this is Yongan." Jia Min, who was extremely excited to see her relatives suddenly, gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.

He hurriedly introduced the child standing beside him to Jia Zheng.

As soon as Jia Zheng arrived at the Lin Mansion, he saw Lin Ruhai standing at the door waiting.

His attitude is okay, and he's not arrogant or reckless.

The two men greeted each other and went to the inner house.

Although business matters were important, blood ties had to be maintained first. Moreover, he had brought Jia's mother's inquiries, and he wanted to see his sister and two children.

When they arrived at the second gate, Jia Min and her two children were waiting eagerly.

Jia Zheng was shocked when he suddenly took a look at Jia Min.

This sister looks like she is living a life of luxury, and has not changed at all since the time she was married.

The only change is that it becomes more gentle.

It wasn't as painful as I imagined. It seems that this brother-in-law still has some ways of supporting me.

It might be difficult to take them away in this way.

Look at the two children who are performing the ceremony. They have the advantages of both their sister and their brother-in-law.

He is a gifted man with extraordinary talent.

The girl Daiyu's eyes are particularly eye-catching, as if they contain thousands of words, joy, anger, sorrow and happiness.

The lustre of the pearl hairpin and the spirit of the eyes are enough to match the precious jade.

The little boy, Yong'an, is ignorant and naive. He has a jade ring around his bun and his eyes, like black grapes, seem to have countless questions.

What a curious little boy.

"Good! Good! Good!" After looking at the child, Jia Zheng said three good words in a row.

He reached out and took out the gift that had been prepared in advance from the servant.

Hand it to the two of them.

"This was given to you by your grandmother, uncle, and aunt."

"You keep it for now."

"Hurry up and thank your uncle!" Jia Min was afraid that the child would be rude.

Lin Daiyu and Yong'an politely bowed to Jia Zheng and expressed their gratitude.

Lin Daiyu looked up at the patriarch of the Jia family. He was dignified and respectful, with an elegant demeanor, and a hint of worry between his brows.

"Uncle! You must have come all the way here for the hard work!" Lin Daiyu frowned when she saw Jia Zheng.

So I greeted him casually.

Maybe he was disgusted with me for looking up at him?

Who cares! I don’t want to do anything to his son anyway!

Jia Zheng was indeed somewhat unhappy when Lin Daiyu, a little girl, looked at him directly.

My sister spoils the children too much.

It is not convenient to preach when you meet for the first time, there will be plenty of time to teach in the future.

Jia Min welcomed her second brother into the living room. Since they were all family members, they simply separated the host and the guest and sat down.

Jia Min showed her utmost sincerity at the banquet.

"Second brother! Try this, it's an authentic Jiangsu and Zhejiang flavor."

……

There was no need for anyone to say much, Jia Min basically had the whole place to herself.

She had never felt that she had so much to say.

"Second brother! What are you here for this time?" Jia Min asked as they were talking excitedly.

Jia Zheng's face turned cold. It seemed that his sister knew nothing about this official matter!

fair enough.

Keeping the crisis out of your home is a good idea.

The official business will then be discussed with Lin Ruhai.

"I'm here mainly for official business. After the official business is over, I will take you back to visit your family on my mother's orders. My sister has two children, so come back to Beijing with me!"

"I haven't seen you for many years. My mother misses you very much."

"Bang!" The cup in Jia Min's hand fell to the ground. Really! She was very happy. She had been longing to go back to her parents' home for a long time.

"Then I..." She glanced at Lin Ruhai and suddenly felt something was wrong.

It doesn't seem appropriate to leave the master alone in Yangzhou.

When Lin Daiyu heard this, the small cup in her hand almost fell to the ground.

Too fast! Impossible, if they go back, wouldn't that be a repeat of the same mistake?

If Lin Ruhai was left alone and something happened to him, would Jia Min, a widow, not be considered as living under someone else's roof if she took care of the siblings?

"I don't agree!" Lin Daiyu saw her mother's ecstasy and was afraid that she would agree first.

So Daiyu directly expressed her opinion loudly.

She could understand Jia Min's homesickness. Think about it, which girl who married and moved far away wouldn't want to go home and visit?

"Mom! You guys go back! Take Yongan with you, go back."

"I stayed in Yangzhou to accompany my father."

When Lin Daiyu said this, Jia Zheng immediately got angry. At first glance, this child seemed okay.

Now it seems that we really need to be taught well.

I'd like to see how you and your wife educate your children.

It is disrespectful for children to interrupt and retort when adults are talking.

The moral code of conduct must not be violated.

Jia Min glared at Lin Daiyu fiercely, and said to Jia Zheng apologetically, "Second brother! The child is still young, don't bother with her."

"Can we discuss this matter later?"

"Aren't you going to leave after a while?"

Lin Ruhai immediately understood what his uncle meant.

This was done to protect Jia Min and others.

He pondered for a moment and interjected, "Alright! Madam and Yongan can go to the Yue family and stay for a while while your uncle leaves."

"As for you, Daiyu..."

When Daiyu heard her name mentioned, she straightened her eyes and looked at her father seriously, "Father, I won't leave."

"I like my father's study in Yangzhou!"

Yong'an's eyes rolled around, looking at his sister then at his mother, unable to make a decision.

Can’t make a choice? Ask my cousin!

Yong'an also has his own idol, the Prince of Nannan.

"Mom! Don't you want to ask my cousin? If he goes or not, I will go too." As soon as Yong'an opened his mouth, everyone present was stunned.

Jia Min was immediately shocked. "Shut up! Don't mention him! What did I tell you at the time?"

Before Jia Zheng came, she was afraid that the children might let the cat out of the bag, so she told them in advance not to mention that cousin.

My uncle doesn't like it.

This Yongan only remembers the food and not the beating.

I forget what I said the moment I turn around, which is especially true of myself.

Yongan was scolded so much that he stopped talking.

Lin Daiyu was laughing in her heart, Yong'an, oh Yong'an, you have uncovered the scars of a despicable boy.

It’s just right, I also want to see how much Jia Zheng hates this cousin.

"Cousin! Which cousin?" Jia Zheng asked curiously.

He doesn't know anything about this.

But seeing that my sister was so angry, what was she hiding?

Jia Min was busy with a bitter face, almost crying, "Second brother, I wrote a letter to mother to explain, oh! In short, it is not convenient to say."

Jia Zheng didn't want to dwell on this matter at all. He thought it was probably some relative of the Lin family, and it was difficult for his sister to say anything.

Besides, I am too busy taking care of my important business right now, so how can I have the time to care about relatives who are not related to me at all.

But it was my brother-in-law who was wrong in causing trouble to my sister.

He glanced at Lin Ruhai angrily.

Lin Ruhai did not explain much.

This matter is more troublesome than it sounds.

Jia Zheng just looked at Lin Daiyu very unhappily. His sister didn't even punish this girl.

Moreover, before leaving, my mother mentioned this niece in particular, and she had to leave even if she didn't want to.

But I guess my mother had explained in the letter that it wasn't appropriate to make things awkward when we first met.

"Since the matter here is settled, brother-in-law, should we go somewhere else to discuss business?" Jia Zheng looked at Lin Ruhai with a frosty face.
