The Red House Returns the Pearl Lin's Home

After taking Lin Lin out for a stroll, Lin Lu developed a new hobby. He ran outside every three days, like a runaway wild horse, rushing out just after the Mao hour, and only stepped on it at the end of the Xu hour. Come back quickly.

"It's almost the New Year's Eve. Our family hasn't prepared any annual gifts this year. Now that we're living here as a guest, my brother doesn't stay home all day. What do my grandmothers, uncles and aunts think?" Lin Daiyu is now holding the The Lin family has a lot of financial power. After Jia Min passed away, she has been learning how to manage the family and finances with Lin Ruhai's foster mother who specially invited her. Now she is very strict in doing it, and she is full of confidence when she speaks at this time.

The old God Lin Lu was watching her sister's silly joy, and it took a long time to pull out two balls of brown, yellow, and fluffy little things from her bulging sleeves, and threw them in front of Lin Daiyu: "Look, I took a lot of effort. I just got it, a male and female pair of little sables, the full moon is not out yet!"

The adult sables curled up into a ball was no larger than the palm of a man of middle age, and Lin Lu could completely hold the pair of young sables with one hand.The two little things were leaning against each other, their eyes were still closed, and their pink noses were shaking back and forth.

Girls are born with low resistance to this kind of fluffy and soft things. Lin Daiyu was surprised and delighted. After a little dazed, she hurriedly took it with both hands, leaned towards the stove lovingly, and buried her head to look at it for a while in amazement. , just then asked: "Where did brother get it?"

Winning it from a fool's bet, Lin Lu said without changing expression: "I met a good buddy outside these few days, and I traded it with him for the special products I brought back from Jiangnan."

Lin Daiyu suddenly became suspicious when she heard this, but for the time being, her maternal nature prevailed, she summoned Mulian to fetch the warm goat's milk, and then said: "I'm afraid it's not easy for people to get this pair of sables, I heard this This purely wild breed is only found in the Xinglong region in the northeast, brother, don't be so lovable..."

"Where is your brother, am I that kind of person?" Lin Lu waved her hand nonchalantly, with a sincere and upright face, "This is a fair deal, the price is fair, and both parties are very satisfied. The gadgets are specially bought for you. After all, the monk and I still have a place for entertainment. You can only stay in such a small world. As an older brother, I have no ability to change the big environment for you. Give more to my sister. Just have some fun."

It was rare for Lin Lu to be aroused in the end. He is a modern person who completely advocates equality between men and women. What he likes are independent and thoughtful women, not an accessory like dodder grass that does not even have a complete personality. , but this era does not have the gentle soil to provide him with a qualified wife.

The emergence of Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism completely deprived women of their right to life, and it has been poisonous for thousands of years. Even in modern times, the aftermath is still lingering, and it indirectly led to the demise of the Southern Song Dynasty. If there were no foreign invasions in the Song Dynasty, China could have entered a capitalist society 1000 years earlier.Just imagine if a country spends all its energy on rearranging the army on rearranging women, how can a country not perish?

If he had a choice, Lin Lu would not have come to the Qing Dynasty where the streets were half bald. If he wanted to wear it, he would wear it to the Southern Song Dynasty. The first thing he did was to destroy Zhu Ximan's family.

Lin Daiyu was born graceful and slim, and no matter how much supplements she ate, she didn't grow any flesh. Lin Lu looked at her sister's slender body, and slapped the table proudly: "Sister, take good care of your body. In the future, my brother will take you to see Norway. Icebergs, go skiing in the Alps, go to the North Pole to see the aurora..."

"What are you talking about?" Lin Lin's cold and thin voice suddenly cut in. Lin Lu was interrupted from thinking, and glanced at him very unhappy, and said angrily: "Master Zhifang didn't tell Is it immoral to knock on the door and eavesdrop when you come in?"

"So you classify standing above the door as 'eavesdropping'?" Lin Lin curled her lips and looked at him with a half-smile, "'Norway', 'Alps' and 'Arctic'? Only a few days I don't see, your ability to make up nonsense has greatly improved?"

Lin Lu would not be fooled by such a clumsy provocative method, she simply nodded and said, "That's right, I was just talking nonsense, and you can see that, Xiao Linzi, your eyesight has also improved—"

He had a calm face, but he was actually a little nervous in his heart. He didn't expect that Lin Lin would listen to him if he said something casually. Lin Lu had his own little secret, so naturally he didn't want anyone to dig it out.

What's more unusual is that Lin Lin didn't get entangled in this issue either. What he said just now seemed to be a knock on Lin Lu's corner, and he let it go after a little mention: "Today, someone from the Jia family is here again?"

This man's mouth is really stinky, and his words are so ugly, Lin Lu turned her head and winked, Mu Lian understood, and immediately led a few big maids back out, guarding the door.

"Second sister, third sister, fourth sister and even sister Bingbao are here." Lin Daiyu felt a little cold the day before yesterday, and Jia's mother was so caring that she invited the imperial physician to prescribe three sets of traditional Chinese medicine. She still speaks with a thin nasal voice, "Second sister-in-law Lian Let Ping'er prepare a gift to see."

"The day before yesterday I was still called 'Miss Xue', but now I'm called 'Sister Bao'?" Lin Lu teased, seeing Lin Daiyu's expression was calm, knowing that her sister knew it well, she thought about it and asked, "Jia... Uh, has Second Cousin been here?"

When he asked, Lin Daiyu frowned slightly, showing a bit of displeasure: "I have been here twice, but I was blocked by the guarding mother outside, and said a few words through the door, and I didn't see each other. .”

"Jia Baoyu, he really has no evil intentions, and he doesn't care about many things. He looks reckless and aggressive, but he may not have bad intentions." Lin Lu pretended to persuade a few words, and expressed her position at the right time. That's right, I'll mention it to him tomorrow, he's not too young, even cousins ​​should avoid suspicion."

After a pause, she sighed with a worried tone unique to middle-aged women: "To tell you the truth, I'm always a little bit worried. When I came to the house, my grandmother cared for us so much. It's like eyeballs, but we are the Lin family after all, the old house has been tidied up, so it is reasonable to move out naturally. But we have only been here for more than a month, and my grandmother must not let us go. Compassion, this is a problem."

Lin Daiyu didn't speak, she lowered her head and fiddled with the fur of the sable. After a long time, she said softly: "Although my grandmother's house is good, after all, it's not a place to stay for a long time. Everything depends on my elder brother."

Lin Lin had been listening in silence, but at this moment she suddenly interrupted and said: "The daughter of the imperial merchant came to Beijing this time for the purpose of being elected, and the Xue family is also a century-old family in Jinling and owns real estate in the capital. The posture of staying in Jia's house for a long time, and you don't even care about your face?"

This is quite standard, not so much a question, but a sneer, Lin Lu pursed the corners of her lips, looked at the expression on her sister's face without any trace, smiled secretly, and Fang replied: "Monk, you She has become stupid after practicing martial arts. Sister Bao said it herself. She had a golden lock in her hand since she was a child. Ge is more precious than ordinary people, and the two of them are cousins ​​of the second aunt, about the same age, about the same family, talented and beautiful, a match made in heaven..."

Lin Daiyu was both amused and annoyed when she heard the compliments, and cast a glance at Lin Lu who was shaking her head and talking endlessly: "Brother is really not serious, I just heard these gossips, Sister Bao is still a boudoir daughter Home, how can such a reputation spread out? If I continue talking, I will be annoyed, so stop talking."

"Golden Jade Match?" Lin Lin sneered, her eyelids half-closed, sparkling, "Isn't there a piece of jade in my hand?"

Lin Lu looked at him suspiciously, but she couldn't see any clues from that face, but she also understood that Lin Lin was not a random person. He didn't believe that such a piece of thousand-year-old ice would see Xue Baochai just because of a few encounters. So this sentence obviously has no deep meaning.

Lin Daiyu also felt that there was something in his words, she tasted it for a while, but she still couldn't understand what it meant.

Lin Lin glanced at the expressions of the brothers and sisters, and lazily reminded: "At the beginning, because I was worried about disturbing my sister's cleanliness, I have been practicing external skills in the unused space in the west courtyard, and I have been working hard for a few days. Only then did he move back, and he was still wielding knives and guns in the small courtyard outside, only avoiding when Jia's family came to visit."

Lin Lu was still wondering, Lin Daiyu was usually as careful as a hair, but now she was concentrating on thinking carefully, and her heart sank: "Could it be...?" Looking at Lin Lin's expression, she couldn't help shaking her head: "Sister Bao loves you the most on weekdays. Talking about etiquette and rules, even my grandmother and second aunt praised her for her demeanor, and everyone in the whole family admired her...how could such a thing be done?"

"I have met that lady from a great family in the west courtyard three times." Lin Lin said disapprovingly, her voice was slow, word by word, dragging on for a long time, "I'm afraid it's just a coincidence, maybe we are really destined. "

Lin Daiyu pinched the handkerchief, her heart was icy cold, she was dazed for a while, and then she said: "I thought...she was for that piece of jade..."

"Who can say for sure, when this Miss Xue first entered the capital, I'm afraid she might not really have a son in her eyes who is the second room of the Duke's Mansion, otherwise she wouldn't really make the 'golden marriage' known to everyone, the Xue family He is very rich, with a net worth of millions, and even though he is only a merchant, he still thinks very highly of himself, so he will not use such means to lower his status." Lin Lin sat up straight, raising her brows with a half-smile.

"To tell you the truth, I think Miss Xue is arrogant and a scheming woman. The most precious and dignified jade in the world is the Jade Seal of Chuanguo in the hands of today's sage, the eldest daughter of Jia's second room The girl entered the Fengzao Palace only through talent selection, and was named a virtuous concubine. She is a role model, and this is another opportunity to step up to the sky. Miss Xue's physical condition is not bad, and she has a big heart, which is justifiable and understandable. .”

Lin Lin has no likes or dislikes about Xue Baochai's actions. People go to high places, and water flows to low places. It is a well-known saying through the ages that it is very normal to want to climb up. As for whether Xue Baochai can achieve what she wants, it depends on her own. It's up to you.

"Hey, then you still say that people are interested in you? The Xue family doesn't even look down on the second young master of the Duke's Mansion, let alone you, a young monk who has returned to vulgarity halfway?" Lin Lu was a little ashamed, and her voice was slightly lowered.

The old hooligan who raised him in his previous life asserted that he was a typical representative of short-sightedness, and he had no concept of the overall situation in his head. Lin Lu didn't believe it at the time, but now looking back and thinking about it, he found that he was really not the material to make great things happen.

The same "golden jade match", Lin Lin thought of it, he didn't think of it at all, he just thought that Xue's family really liked Jia Baoyu, a fat sheep, so he ignored his face and let out the wind. "Golden Jade Match" is more about showing off - as the monks and Taoists have asserted, the daughter of the Xue family is born with the blessing of being assigned to the emperor as a concubine.

"It's the same as putting eggs in one basket. It doesn't take much for her to win me over at this time. If the matter of choosing someone in the future is really bad, this is also a way out." Lin Lin looked at him contemptuously. , because Lin Daiyu didn't seem to have figured out the joints, so she explained softly.

When he said this, Lin Lu immediately became enlightened, and slapped her thigh and said, "That's right, this is a completely costless business. It's better to make money if you make money, and it's not a loss if you don't make money. This is really a business for years Businessman, you have calculated a good account!"

Having figured this out, Lin Lu couldn't help but look at Lin Lin a little more. Even though he didn't like this kid in his heart, he had to admit that this guy was really good looking. In terms of appearance, he was not inferior to Jia Baoyu, and he stood up to Lin Ruhai's youngest son. In the future, if he takes the path of martial arts and wins the number one prize again.It is also a rare potential stock.

The only slight disadvantage is that the age difference between Lin Lin and Xue Baochai is a bit big.

Lin Daiyu's face turned blue only when she heard that, that Miss Xue was gentle, with "noble lady" written on her left cheek and "girlie" written on her right cheek, she never imagined that she could do such a thing, how could a woman even at least Your self-respect is gone?

Lin Lu and Lin Lin didn't take this seriously, it was considered normal in their values, but Lin Daiyu couldn't take it lightly and just laughed it off.

Fairy Jiangzhu is noble and flawless, innocent, honest, elegant and handsome. In her heart, family background and family wealth are all second-rate. Marriage is a matter of sincerity and sincerity, rather than scheming and planning. Seeing Lin Lin at this time is very Euphemistically pointing out Xue Baochai's behavior, I can't help feeling a little contemptuous.

Lin Lu saw that her mood fluctuated a lot today, and she was the most troublesome. She sat down for a while and chatted, and then offered to leave. She called the maid who guarded the gate to explain a few precautions for feeding sables, and dragged Lin Lin out.

The two walked forward for a while without saying a word, Lin Lu smiled and asked, "Monk, tell me the truth, how did that Miss Xue provoke you?"

Lin Lin was indifferent to anything that had nothing to do with her. She never said bad things about others behind her back, and kept everything in her heart. This was the first time Lin Lu saw him talking like this, and she was extremely curious.

"My sister has always treated people with generosity and sincerity. I just want to remind her not to be deceived by others." Lin Lin naturally has his considerations in doing things. What kind of person Xue Baochai is has nothing to do with him, but In Lin Daiyu's mind, what kind of person Xue Baochai is has something to do with him.

This man did bad things so righteously, Lin Lu gave him a high look, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "I heard that the emperor will issue an order after the next year to allow the concubines to go home to visit their relatives—the newly promoted virtuous The concubine is also among them."

This is a rumor leaked from the court, which is very inconsistent with Lin Lu's usual philosophy of being indifferent to political affairs. Lin Lin paused and narrowed her phoenix eyes: "Where did you get the pair of sables you gave to your sister?" ?”

Sister, sister, sister, what are you doing so affectionately when you have nothing to do?Lin Lu rolled his eyes at him: "I exchanged Jiangnan native products with someone."

"You go out empty-handed every day, and you don't even bring a servant with you. This is just to coax my sister. How can you use it to fool me?" Lin Lin was slightly annoyed at Lin Lu's clumsy lies. It was obvious that he was mocking his IQ.

Lin Lu didn't want to hide it from him, the key is that she couldn't hide it, and this matter was a bit big, so she leaned over her head and whispered in her ear: "I made a new friend recently, that is, we met at the teahouse the other day. The one I met on the Internet, the one I told you about, Mr. Fu Heng, was one of the guards."

Lin Lin turned her head and thought for a while, then frowned slightly: "The one in the stone blue dress?"

"Smart!" The reason why they approached him was actually to find out about Lin Lin. Lin Lu felt that she was wrong, and now she was going to have a showdown with the sufferer. With a guilty conscience, she didn't hesitate to praise her.

"I guessed it randomly. There were so many guards at that time, how could I look at them one by one? I just remembered that one." Lin Lin closed her eyes and thought about it carefully, "The steps are steady and powerful, and the breathing is long and long, which shows the skill That’s right, it’s not top-notch, and it’s rare at his age.”

This is old-fashioned. He is 17 years old, five years older than you. Lin Lu sneered a bit, showing eight white teeth in a smile: "It's true that he is very skilled. His name is Hai Lancha. The Manchus of the Yellow Banner have fought in the army for two years, and now they are the first-class guards next to the emperor." After a pause, he added, "He kept saying that he wanted to discuss with you."

Hearing the accent, this kid might have sold him off in order to get a pair of sables. Lin Lin was helpless and powerless, so she paused and said, "He told you about the family visit?"

"Well, that's right, the emperor heard it by ear when he was chatting with his brother-in-law that day, and he told me as a favor." Lin Lu saw that his eyes were dim, and couldn't help explaining, "It's not that my wife said it on purpose. The one who inquired was he who took the initiative to tell me."

"Is it possible to say such things when chatting with friends? Since he has become a first-class guard, he naturally knows the rules, when to wear ears, and when to shut up. Don't you have a clue in your heart?" Lin Lin snorted. Seeing through the tricks at a glance, "Don't be stupid, I'm afraid they have already checked your background. They know what relationship you have with Jia's family and Concubine Xiande, so they specifically tell you." The people above specifically explained that they wanted to pass this news to Lin Lu's ears.

"I know, the old man was so interested in you that day, it's not impossible to find someone to ask after you go back." Lin Lu was not surprised at all. When he saw Hai Lancha in the teahouse the next day, Know that this is an intentional wait and see.

Of course he didn't want to be that foolish rabbit planted on a tree stump, but there was no other way. In this world, the second emperor was the third. point.

"That Hai Lancha really said that he wanted to fight with me?" Lin Lin moved the corners of her lips, with a smile that was not a smile, her voice was slightly lowered, and her eyes were a little cold.

Lin Lu felt something was wrong, and dissuaded her: "Although Hai Lancha has other motives, he still obeys orders. He is quite a good person. At least he has no intention of harming others for the time being. Don't kill him. Make trouble again."

"This man looks honest and heartless, but in just two years, he has jumped from an ordinary Manchu boy to a hot figure around the emperor. Naturally, he needs some means. In the past, when Mr. I have been to Hailancha, and said that this man is brave and good at fighting, extremely powerful, and he is not afraid of life and death. He is not the best in martial arts, but he kills the most enemies." Lin Lin obviously did not have much concern, "He is not made of mud. Since I said that there is a martial arts competition, I naturally have to use all my strength, otherwise wouldn't I belittle him?"

Lin Lu twitched the corner of her mouth.
