Yuan Wei's Quick Travel
Chapter 53 The Daughter of the Scholar in the Red Mansion 10
Not long after, Sun Xiaoyu walked in and saluted Yuan Wei and said, "Miss."
After the ceremony, Sun Xiaoyu said, "My husband said that the matter in Yangzhou has been settled. Here are the house and land deeds he brought back."
After saying that, Sun Xiaoyu handed the deed in her hand to Yuan Wei.
Yuan Wei took the deed but did not look at it immediately. Instead, she listened quietly to Sun Xiaoyu continue talking.
Sun Xiaoyu glanced at Yuan Wei's expression and continued, "We were able to buy the house and farm so quickly this time, thanks to the help of the Lin Mansion. Coincidentally, when my husband went there, he happened to run into the housekeeper of the Lin Mansion who was also out buying a farm, so he took the opportunity to get close to the housekeeper."
Having said that, Sun Xiaoyu carefully observed Yuan Wei's expression and found that she did not mean to blame her husband for making the decision without authorization, so she continued speaking with confidence:
"Perhaps with instructions from the master of the Lin Mansion, the steward enthusiastically led them to choose a house and a farm, and helped him put in a few words at the government office, so that the transfer procedures went smoothly."
Yuan Wei flipped through the contract in silence, and just asked Sun Xiaoyu to go back and tell Zhou Fu to have a good rest for a few days, and she would naturally reward him when the time comes.
After hearing this, Sun Xiaoyu's face showed joy and she nodded repeatedly in agreement.
After Sun Xiaoyu left, Ji'er poured Yuan Wei a cup of tea and asked, "So the concubine already knows that the young lady has bought property in Yangzhou. Is this okay?"
"It's not something shameful, so what's the big deal?" Yuan Wei gave her a funny look.
What is this girl thinking?
She bought a house in Yangzhou to have an extra guarantee, and didn't want to be controlled by others if something happened.
It would be more beneficial for Jia Min to know that she has property in Yangzhou, so that people will not think of her as a poor beggar.
Just like Lin Daiyu, the Lin family was wealthy and had titles for generations, but they were lost in Lin Ruhai's generation.
Just because she only brought a little maid to her maternal family's home, let's see what the servants in Rongguo Mansion said about her.
Even if Mrs. Wang didn't like her, it was because Lin Daiyu was too shabby when she first arrived, otherwise no one would bring it up.
Yuan Wei didn't want to feel the same treatment as Lin Daiyu. After all, there must be servants from Rongguo Mansion around Jia Min.
If you hear any rumors then, you will just be uncomfortable!
So it is necessary to buy a house so that you can return to your own home when you are unhappy!
After a few days, everything was ready and Yuan Wei set off in a carriage.
Yuan Wei hired someone from the escort agency for this trip, and Su Yuebai accompanied her, so she didn't have to worry about the journey and arrived in Yangzhou smoothly.
When Yuan Wei entered the Lin Mansion, she had already secretly admired the scenery of the Lin Mansion. Seeing Jia Min made her feel that she was worthy of being Lin Daiyu's biological mother.
She sat there quietly, like a beautiful painting of an ancient lady.
She has a beautiful face, picturesque features, skin as white as mutton fat and as delicate as cream, and the clothes she wears are gorgeous and exquisite.
This was the first time Yuan Wei and Jia Min met, but unfortunately they were just strangers to each other.
When Yuan Wei secretly admired Jia Min's beauty, Jia Min was also amazed at Yuan Wei's exquisiteness and cuteness, which made people fall in love with her at first sight.
Before Yuan Wei could salute, Jia Min pulled her to her side and said, "Your name is Yuan Wei, right? You should call me aunt."
"Aunt." Yuan Wei called out quickly.
"Hey." Jia Min responded happily, and then asked softly, "Did you have a smooth journey?"
"It went smoothly. We had people from the escort agency with us along the way, so we didn't encounter any problems."
Yuan Wei was a little surprised to see that the affection in Jia Min's eyes was not fake.
I also felt a little closer to Jia Min.
After a few pleasantries, Jia Min asked Yuan Wei to wash up and get ready, and then she would host a family dinner to welcome her in the evening.
Before leaving, he gave Yuan Wei a maid named Fan Shuang.
Yuan Wei: “…”
Is it a tradition of the Jia family to give it to a maid?
The Lin Mansion is very large and there are only two masters, so there are many empty courtyards.
Yuan Wei was taken to a courtyard not far from the main courtyard. As soon as she entered, she felt that the decoration inside was warm and comfortable without losing its gorgeousness. It was obvious that much thought was put into it.
Yuan Wei was a little touched, but she was more curious about Jia Min's intention.
It always makes me feel uneasy when my aunt, whom I have never met, suddenly becomes so attentive to me.
Worried that she has other motives.
Yuan Wei sat on the couch, listening to Fan Shuang introduce the Lin family and the layout of the courtyard.
There's not much to say about the Lin family. They only have two masters, and Yuan Wei may be more familiar with them than Fan Shuang.
As for the courtyard, Jia Min and her team decorated it personally, and she picked out the decorations inside one by one from the warehouse.
This made Yuan Wei even more confused. Why?
Fan Shuang paused and replied, "Madam has never had any children. It was better when she was in the capital before, after all, her family was there and she could visit. Now she is in Yangzhou, and the master is busy with official duties, so Madam is alone, and she is bound to be lonely. I happened to know that the young lady was also alone, so I thought of bringing her here so that she can have some company."
It turned out that Yuan Wei had accidentally asked the question in her mind just now, and Fan Shuang was answering Yuan Wei's question.
Yuan Wei smiled after hearing this, and Fan Shuang didn't know whether she believed it or not.
In fact, the true situation was that my wife had met a high monk while burning incense in a temple. The monk said that if a blood-related child was always with her, she would be able to attract children.
The maids also said that there was such a saying among the people, and the lady had been dreaming for the past few days, dreaming of a girl holding a little girl's hand and playing in the garden.
The wife thought this was a hint from God, so she wrote two letters in a row urging Yuan Wei to come to Yangzhou.
After all, the closest blood relative is Yuan Wei.
As for the child in the capital, it was too far away, and her brother and sister-in-law were unwilling to let the child come to Yangzhou for this reason.
Jia Min is about to grab Yuan Wei as a lifeline.
She was fed up with the rumors about her having no children, and even Lin Ruhai was under a lot of pressure.
Jia Min had arranged a maid for Lin Ruhai and had also promised to make her a concubine as long as she gave birth to a child.
But there is no child either.
After a long time, Lin Ruhai had given up a little, but Jia Min didn't want to give up. She had drunk so many bitter medicines and tried so many folk remedies over the years, so how could she not get pregnant!
Jia Min was a little crazy about this. In order to comfort her and so that she could have a relative to accompany her, Lin Ruhai also supported bringing Yuan Wei to live with her permanently.
That's why Yuan Wei felt comfortable in the Lin family and no one gave her a hard time.
Yuan Wei doesn’t know all this yet. She is now asking Jill to change her clothes and dress up for the family dinner.
While combing Yuan Wei's hair, Ji'er suddenly said with regret: "It's a pity that the girl can't wear too bright clothes now, otherwise if she dresses up..."
"There's nothing to regret. It's my duty to mourn for my father." Yuan Wei interrupted Jill.
Jill's face turned pale. "It was my fault for speaking out of turn."
"It's okay. Just be careful with what you say and do when you go out." Seeing that she was indeed frightened, Yuan Wei smiled and comforted her.
"Yes." Jill calmed herself down and continued to comb Yuan Wei's hair.
On the other side, after Lin Ruhai came back, he did not go back to the backyard immediately, but met Su Yuebai in the study in the front yard.
"Sir." Su Yuebai bowed.
"Your name is Su Yuebai?" Lin Ruhai asked.
"Yes."
Lin Ruhai looked at him carefully for a while and asked a few more questions, all of which Su Yuebai answered very well.
He nodded with satisfaction, a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
He liked her because she was smart, studious, humble and polite.
After guiding Su Yuebai with his homework for a while, Lin Ruhai patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him: "Work hard, and you will definitely have a place in the imperial examination in the future."
"Thank you for your guidance, sir." Su Yuebai said gratefully.
Lin Ruhai smiled and became more and more appreciative of Su Yuebai. He knew that this young man would achieve something in the future.
There was only a hint of regret in his eyes. If the child had been born, he would have been in school by now.
