After a while, the Lin family packed up their belongings, house, shop, etc., and moved to the capital with Lin Ruhai assuming office.

The Lin family had a house in Beijing, but it had been left unattended for a long time, so Jia Min decided to let the housekeeper and women live there first, and the maids who were attached to their family to stay in Jia's house temporarily, and waited. Move in after repairing the house.

Lin Ruhai felt that this was a little inappropriate. How could there be any reason for a daughter and son-in-law to bring the whole family back to her mother's house?

But Jia Min refused, and only said: "Why are all the relatives living in Jia's house in all directions, and I, a decent girl from Jia's family, can't live in Jia's house?"

Then, she directly wrote a letter to Mrs. Shi, Mrs. Jia was overjoyed when she learned that her daughter was coming back to live!

Jia Zheng was also happy to hear the news. My brother-in-law had just been promoted to a third-rank general judge. If they lived together, they would walk around and get closer.

What's more, his brother-in-law Lin Ruhai is now an upstart in the court, and now that he has moved to Beijing, those dignitaries in the court will inevitably come to visit him.

Therefore, the matter of Lin's temporary residence in Jia's was settled in such an amicable and joyful manner.

Mrs. Wang was too lazy to take care of it, so she ordered Xifeng to take care of it.

Today, the sky is bright and clear, and the wind is smooth.

The Lin family's chariots and horses were walking on Ningrong Street, attracting crowds of onlookers.

The children chased behind the tall carts and horses, and Jia Min ordered someone to distribute fruit for them to eat.

Lin Langyu and Wen Quxing looked around excitedly. Wen Quxing was full of curiosity about this real Chang'an city, and Lin Langyu introduced Chang'an to him endlessly all the way.

Daiyu seldom went out, and when she heard the commotion outside, she secretly peeked out from behind the green veil.

When they arrived at the gate of Jia's mansion, Jia's mansion sent people to open the gate early and prepare the cars and sedan chairs to wait. When they saw the Lin family's chariots and horses coming, they rushed forward to greet them.

Lin Ruhai and his group entered the door, got out of the car, got into a sedan chair, surrounded by all the people and headed in.

When Daiyu first came here, she walked through the side door, but now she followed her parents as a serious guest, so she walked through the main door, so what she saw and felt was different.

In the inner courtyard, Lin Ruhai went to visit his brother-in-law Jia Zheng, Jia She and others alone, while Jia Min and Lin Langyu went down to Jiamu's courtyard surrounded by girls and women, and followed them through the door. Pass through the main room and come to a small building.

Inside the house, Mother Jia, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing, sisters Li Wan, Xifeng and all the sisters-in-law have been waiting for a long time.

Mother Jia was sitting on the main seat. Seeing Jia Min leading the three children in, she hurriedly got up and said, "My girl! I hope you are back at last!"

As she said that, she pulled Jia Min to sit beside her, patted her hand with red eyes and said, "Your parents-in-law passed away a long time ago, and no one taught you when you married into the Lin family, now come back and live by my side." So, it is necessary to serve before me every day.”

"My daughter can't wait to be in front of her mother every day. It's better for the mother not to be annoyed by her daughter." Jia Min laughed.

Everyone laughed a few times.

Jia's mother said to Jia Min again: "The Qinghui Garden has been tidied up. You know that the garden was built by me and your father when I got married. I like to be lively when I am old, and I don't want to move. I don't want others to live in that garden! Now, when you come, you just go in and live there."

"I don't stick to anything, I just hope that I can be in front of my mother every day." Jia Min said.

After finishing speaking, Jia Min looked at Aunt Xue, who was not very pretty, and said, "Look at me, I haven't said hello to my aunt after sitting for so long, Langyu, Qu Geer, Daiyu call someone."

Hearing this, the three of Lin Langyu stood up and bowed to Aunt Xue: "Auntie please be well."

Aunt Xue had a smile on her face: "It's all a family, so don't stick to these formalities."

Jia Min led Lin Langyu and Wen Quxing to meet them again. On the surface, Wen Quxing was gentle and polite, but Lin Langyu could still feel his excitement from his constant tug on his hem.

This is "Dream of Red Mansions". When I was in Lin's house, there was only Daiyu dangling in front of me. Now I am in Jia's house, this is the home field!

A character he once analyzed in an article, now standing in front of him alive, gave him a very different feeling from the book, at least in terms of appearance.

For example, Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue have always been a kind and gentle couple in his mind, but now that he sees them with his own eyes, he realizes that the two sisters look like Xifeng, with a gorgeous atmosphere.

Now she is only the age of a middle-aged lady, and her charm is still like this, so you can think of her beauty when she was young!

Mother Jia held Lin Langyu in her arms and looked at him carefully. Few of the sisters-in-law had seen Langyu, and even if they had, it was many years ago, so they all looked at him carefully. .

I saw Lin Langyu born with eyebrows like distant mountains, eyes like lacquer spots, skin like creamy fat, and color like dawn flowers.Looking at it, it is somewhat similar to Daiyu, but with a smile and affection, it is a little more romantic than Daiyu, and Baoyu and Daiyu are not as good as this.

This is Lin Langyu in the eyes of other people, but in the eyes of Jia Mu, he only thinks he is too thin, so she said distressedly: "Is the disease healed before? I saw that my face was sharp. You are older than your brother Bao. Two years older, his physique is not as good as his! But he has to make up for it."

Lin Langyu leaned into Jiamu's arms and said with a smile, "It's all right, I've eaten a lot, but I'm not fat."

Then he whispered in Jia Mu's ear, "My illness is thanks to Brother Wen!"

"I know, your mother told me already." Mother Jia smiled, and asked Wen Quxing, who was standing beside her, to come to her side, and held his hand for a long time.

Wen Quxing was born much brighter than Lin Langyu, but it was more in line with Jia's mother's aesthetics, so she couldn't help praising: "This child, such a good-looking child, would be ruined if he is not in your house!"

Then, she pulled Lin Langyu's hand and Wen Quxing's hand together, and said: "You two brothers will be harmonious in the future!"

Lin Langyu and Wen Quxing nodded again and again, and Jia's mother became more and more happy to see them, and hugged the two grandchildren into her arms.

Wang Xifeng on the side smiled and echoed: "That's right, he looks so good, Brother Tong Lang looks like a real brother! It's still my aunt who can raise children, and everyone looks like a fairy descending to earth!"

Everyone laughed again after hearing this, and Jia Min teased her: "I haven't seen you for so many years, it seems that Feng girl has been stealing honey a lot, otherwise why is her mouth so sweet?"

"Auntie, don't laugh at me!" Wang Xifeng said with a smile.

The old lady smiled happily. She pointed at Wang Xifeng and said with a smile: "In the past, you were the only one who could talk, and no one in the whole family could talk about you. Now that your aunt is back, someone can control you!"

"Hahahahaha..."

Jia's mother laughed heartily, she put her arms around Lin Langyu and Daiyu and couldn't stop saying hello: "Now that you are back, and my concubine is here again, the whole family is happy and lively!"

The crowd nodded in agreement.

Everyone began to ramble about some homely things again. At this time, a girl came to report that Baoyu had returned.

Then, Baoyu came in, wearing a brocade robe with red butterfly sleeves and flowers, and asked, "Sister Lin is back?"

Hearing this, Daiyu glared at him reproachfully, then buried her head in Mother Jia's arms and smiled.

Baoyu looked towards the main seat, and at a glance he saw Lin Langyu and Wen Quxing who were sitting with Daiyu beside Jiamu, and he couldn't help but froze in place.

Seeing this, Mother Jia laughed strangely and said, "What are you still standing there for? Come and see your aunt and your two brothers soon."

Only then did Baoyu come back to her senses, and hurried forward to salute, "Hello, aunt! Hello two brothers! Please greet my aunt and two brothers."

"Good good!"

Jia Min smiled and pulled Baoyu up from the ground, then took out two hairpin-sized Jin Ruyi from her arms and handed them to him. Baoyu quickly thanked her, and then sat next to Daiyu beside Jiamu.

Fortunately, Mother Jia's embroidered couch is spacious enough to sit so many children without feeling crowded.

Baoyu pulled La Daiyu's clothes, and then asked: "Which one is Brother Lin? Brother Lin hasn't come and walked around for so many years, I don't even recognize him."

Daiyu laughed and said, "Say you're worthless! What else do you do all day long besides Taocheng Rouge? You don't even know my brother anymore."

Jia Mu was listening, then turned her head to him and said, "It is often said that Brother Lin, like you, was born with jade. It is also our family's good luck."

Only then did Jia Baoyu notice that there was also a piece of jade hanging from the red gold inlaid treasure filigree necklace around Lin Langyu's neck, so he got up and apologized to Langyu: "Blame me! I haven't seen my brother for many years, and I haven't seen him for a while. recognize my brother."

Lin Langyu smiled and waved his hands: "We haven't seen each other for so many years! Don't talk about you, even if I met you on the street, I wouldn't recognize you."

Baoyu was still a little shy at first, but now he said a few words, and felt that he became familiar with Lin Langyu again: "In the future, we brothers and sisters will live together, and it will be great for us to play together!"

Lin Langyu agreed with a smile, and Mother Jia was even happier when she heard this.

Since Jia Baoyu entered the house, Wen Quxing's eyes have been glued to him. His eyes are like those of foreign friends visiting giant pandas for the first time!It's almost like the word "novelty" is written on the face.

Seeing this, Lin Langyu nudged Wen Quxing with his elbow, and then said in a low voice, "Are you visiting relatives, or watching a monkey show? Restrain yourself!"

Wen Quxing reluctantly withdrew his gaze from Jia Baoyu, and replied in a low voice: "A few months ago, I was obviously a materialist, who would have thought that I would travel through time? There are traces to follow It’s nothing more than the dynasties of Jia Baoyu, but they actually passed through the book? A group of people who didn’t exist at all, now stand in front of me with flesh and blood! I used to be Jia Baoyu’s black fan, but now I see the idol with my own eyes, I should see him more of."

Lin Langyu: "A black fan? Is it a fan?"

Wen Quxing: "Why doesn't it count?"

Lin Langyu: "..."

After everyone chatted happily for a while, it was time to eat.

In order to welcome the arrival of the Lin family, Jia's mansion specially prepared several tables and performances. The family had a lively meal, and after watching the play, they gathered in Jia's mother's courtyard to have fun.

The women accompanied Jia's mother to touch dominoes and talk and laugh, while Lin Langyu and Wen Quxing led a group of children to play hide-and-seek, eagles and chickens in the courtyard.

To say that both Lin Langyu and Wen Quxing have grown up mentally, long past the time to play these games, but now they are open to play like children, the fun is still there.

Especially Wen Quxing, even though Lin Langyu was there after the crossing, he still had some concerns in his heart, now he opened up to play and laugh, and all the haze in his heart dissipated.

It's not the flowering season anymore, but there are still flowers blooming in the courtyard.

A group of beautiful children are chasing and playing carefree in the courtyard. I really envy the group of adults who sit together with smiles on their faces but have their own thoughts.

As the saying goes: "How many famous and profitable people in Chang'an, the government is not as good as the king."

The author has something to say: "How many famous and wealthy customers in Chang'an, it is not as good as the king when all the organs are exhausted"
