Chapter 346: Love in the Red Mansion is as Deep as the Sea 27

Lin Daiyu's instructions made the chef extremely busy, and he cooked all the dishes in the kitchen to ensure that the master would have a hot meal when he returned.

The braised lion's head, honey-glazed fire square, clear soup abalone and sea cucumber, and other braised dishes are simmering on the fire.

The longer this dish is stewed, the more flavorful it becomes. As for other vegetarian dishes, you can just heat up the fire and stir-fry them in high oil when the host comes back.

Lin Ruhai was also exhausted. After eating and drinking, he still had to write a memorial to the emperor. Lin Ruhai dictated the verbs to his teacher and then copied them on the memorial when he thought there were no problems.

This couldn't be left idle, so the steward personally delivered the memorial to Dai Quan and handed it to the emperor.

The emperor wasn't unkind, and granted the newly appointed Minister of Revenue, Lin Ruhai, a three-day holiday. After all, the donkeys working the mill needed a rest, too.

But the emperor couldn't wait for Lin Ruhai's idea. Whoever is short of money knows it!

Regarding the debt owed by the Ministry of Revenue, Lin Ruhai also gave an idea. He would find two people to ask whoever paid the money first and risked great disapproval from the world, and then give him a reward, using carrots to lead these people forward.

The next day, Lin Ruhai was going to the Jia Mansion to discuss the matter with the Jia family. Isn't it true that the emperor should promote the virtuous without avoiding relatives? When the emperor is in trouble, the ministers must step forward.

This is not entirely to trick Jia She and Jia Jing. If you don't please the emperor at this time, who can you please?

Let's serve our immediate superior first before anything else. Besides Lin Ruhai, who is a capable relative, the other person the Jia family relies on is Wang Ziteng from the Wang family.

There is also the virtuous concubine Jia Yuanchun in the palace, but relying on others is far less reliable than relying on oneself.

Lin Ruhai also didn't want his wife's family to be too boastful. If they prosper together, they all prosper together, and if they suffer together, all nine clans will be implicated, and there is no way to escape.

You can't help, but you must not be a drag, so this is what they say: It's easy to be an official if you have someone in the court.

If there is anything that can benefit your family, don't let other families take advantage of it. If Lin Daiyu and Lin Daiyu had a poor family, their family would be ruined.

Where is the reputation left? The first marriage market is completely dead. The idea of ​​being well-matched is not just talk.

Who would marry a woman from another family with problems? In ancient times, the first thing to consider when marrying a woman was not her appearance.

The first thing they looked at was the family background. Only when the families were well matched would the wife of the house come out to see the child's appearance and inquire whether the room was clean.

For example, if you have outstanding children who are single and unmarried, you can take in a few people. But don't go too far and create a concubine's eldest son, as that would be a disaster.

You can’t marry a girl of equal status from a good family, so you can only lower your status. Just like what Jia Mu said, they all came from a young age, like a greedy cat.

People can tolerate your greed, but they will never tolerate your confusion.

The next morning, Lin Ruhai and his two children went to pay their respects to Lady Jia. The Jia family had received the letter early in the morning, and the main gate was wide open to welcome Lin Ruhai and his family.

There are always those fan fictions that say the Jia family is confused and goes to the dock to intercept Lin Ruhai or something like that. That's impossible! Ancient people paid the most attention to etiquette.

Grandmother Jia is the legitimate daughter of the Shi family, so how could she make such a low-level mistake? Lin Ruhai is visiting Grandmother Jia today and can stay overnight, there is nothing wrong with that.

There was no problem in keeping Lin Daiyu and Lin Jinyu to accompany her for a few days, but going to the dock to block people was something that was absolutely not allowed.

Lin Ruhai was a high-ranking official, not some street thug. How could the Jia family dare to compete with the emperor for his wife? It wasn't like they were truly mentally ill.

When Lin Ruhai came to the door, Jia She and Jia Zheng personally greeted him at the door. Lin Daiyu and Lin Daiyu's carriage went directly into the courtyard. Outside the second gate, they changed to a sedan chair carried by a strong maid and went straight to the old lady's residence.

Lin Ruhai was accompanied by Jia Zheng and Jia She to pay his respects to Lady Jia.

Grandmother Jia was waiting anxiously in the hall. After a while, the little maid came to report:

"Old Ancestor, Uncle Lin, Miss Lin, and Master Lin have arrived and have already entered the courtyard. The eldest master was afraid that Old Ancestor would be anxious waiting, so he sent a servant to inform Old Ancestor."

Yuanyang grabbed a handful of money and gave it to the clever little maid:

"What a clever child! The ancestors rewarded you with candy!"

The little maid happily pocketed the reward in her robe and went out.

Lin Ruhai and his two children knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Lady Jia:

"Mother-in-law, I, your unfilial son-in-law, Ru Hai, and my daughter Jin Yu, kowtow to you. May you be blessed with endless blessings and a life as long as the mountains."

Jia Mu burst into tears: "Ru Hai, why did you come back just now? I miss you so much, old lady.

You are a good person, but it’s a pity that my Min’er is not so lucky! "

This sentence made the three members of the Lin family shed tears, and Jia She quickly tried to smooth things over:

"Mother has been looking forward to it every day. Now that Ruhai has been transferred to the capital, we can see each other often. Why did you start crying instead?"

It took a lot of persuasion from everyone before Lady Jia stopped crying. She held Lin Daiyu and Lin Jinyu in her arms, each holding their own affection for a while.

Then Grandmother Jia started to drive them away: "I know you and your elder and second brothers have something to say, but we women in the inner house don't understand your men's affairs.

You guys go about your business, just leave the kids with me. These two kids have to stay with me for a few days.

This was human nature, so Lin Ruhai quickly agreed. Jia She and Jia Zheng accompanied Lin Ruhai to the study in the outer courtyard.

Grandmother Jia held the two children tightly in her arms, and admired them carefully for a while, then instructed: "Today we have distant guests, let the girls meet their relatives.

Go to the school and call Baoyu over so that everyone can meet him."

Now that Mrs. Wang had been scolded by Lady Jia, she became very obedient and dared not do anything wrong.

There was no mention of the stupid stuff like in the original novel about taking out two pieces of satin to make clothes for Lin Daiyu.

Lin Ruhai followed, the Minister of Revenue of the second rank in the imperial court. She was disgusted by her own long life and that was why she wanted to disgust Lin Ruhai.

The courtyard prepared for Lin Daiyu and Lin Jinyu is the Anlan Courtyard after Jia Mu's death. This is the courtyard where Jia Min lived in the past.

All the furnishings in the house were chosen by Jia's mother herself. Everyone knew how to curry favor with others. How could Jia's mother be willing to offend such a son-in-law?

Grandmother Jia originally wanted to bring Baoyu and Daiyu together, but now she doesn't dare to think about it at all.

Lin Ruhai no longer has the right to arrange the marriage of Lin Daiyu and Jinyu, everything has to be arranged by the emperor.

How could someone be so tactless as to marry the eldest daughter of the Minister of Revenue, the son of a fifth-rank official?

Grandmother Jia is not that shameless. She still wants to do something even though she knows it is impossible. That is an insult to her intelligence.

Marrying someone is not making an enemy, so how could you offend someone to death? But Mrs. Wang felt a little bit unwilling in her heart.

She looked down on Jia Min's children, yet coveted Lin Ruhai's power. She was truly conflicted.

She was afraid that the Lin family would agree to Baoyu and Daiyu's marriage, but she also hoped that the Lin family would take a fancy to Baoyu and only Baoyu would be her.

He is really blinded by greed and has a foolish dream of getting married.
