Lin Jiajinyu of the Red Chamber

Mu Li's hardware and software have all met the standard, Lin Jinyu thought, his sister always keeps something in her heart, even if there are some girls who are worried about the situation at home, I'm afraid she doesn't want Lin Jinyu to know, so as not to affect Lin Jinyu's study.

Lin Jinyu took advantage of the good weather, and Mu Li sent two pots of hibiscus over. Lin Jinyu borrowed flowers to present Buddha, and walked under the window, when she heard the sound of a piano.

Although she is a close sibling, Lin Daiyu has a heart of seven orifices, is exquisite and intelligent, and is extremely talented in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.Lin Jinyu is only good at calligraphy and painting, but she doesn't know anything about piano and chess. Xu Ziwen's evaluation has only two words: dull.

Talented scholars of Xu Ziwen's generation admired Lin Daiyu's talent very much, and always regretted that Daiyu was mistaken for a daughter.

Lin Jinyu only thought it sounded good, and stood still until the sound of the piano was over before knocking on the door and entering.

After Lin Daiyu finished the song, she was still sitting on the piano mat and did not get up. The fragrance was wafting from the emerald carved tripod next to her. Looking from a distance, she looked like a fairy.

Lin Jinyu felt in her heart that it was really easy to fall in love with his sister.

Helping Lin Daiyu to get up and move to the couch, Wei Yu served tea, then retreated, Lin Jinyu smiled and said, "What song is this sister playing, it's really nice." "It's a song from the piano score you gave me last time." An ancient song, a song from the Tang Dynasty, called "Yue Ren Song"." Daiyu asked with a smile, "Why are you free now, don't you need to study?"

Lin Jinyu turned her eyes to think about it, and said softly, "The previous one went to Mr., who said that our family is about to be filial piety, and my sister will be old in the next year. I thought, Mr. knows a lot of people, and he is an elder. Seeing that people are more accurate than me, I will ask my husband to help me find out, what do my sister think?"

This really made Lin Daiyu question, her jade-colored cheeks were slightly red, Lin Daiyu whispered, "I am at home all day, who can I see?"

"I've figured it out, let's not go for the high and the famous, and don't pick the poor and the rich, just look at the character and family style. First of all, the appearance should not be too bad. If it is crooked, it will be annoying. Second, be correct. , but you can’t be dull, if you do something uncommon like the second uncle, you will be sold and count the money for others in the future.” Lin Jinyu stretched out her small hand to count, and Lin Daiyu couldn’t help laughing, “You’re really a poor talker, Make fun of the elders again."

Lin Jinyu smiled and said, "Also, the elders in the family can't be tricky, otherwise it will be hard to meet an unreasonable mother-in-law; finally, there can't be concubines, and they are not allowed to accept concubines after marriage. These four points, my sister thinks there is something to add. reduced."

Lin Daiyu sighed, "You are thinking of me wholeheartedly. I know that we are the only siblings at home. If I go out of the family, you will be left alone at home. How can I rest assured. Let's talk about it two years later. At any rate, you are the Empress Dowager in Chunwei."

Lin Jinyu smiled and said, "Sister, don't worry about this. At worst, you can still live at home after you get married. I originally wanted to find a husband for my sister, but now anyone with a little self-esteem is unwilling to be a door-to-door son-in-law. Yes, I can't even look down on you, let alone my sister. Let's not talk about this for the time being, it's still a matter of business, as long as my sister nods, I will look for it according to this."

"You are the master of the house and my younger brother. I can trust your vision." Lin Daiyu exhorted in a low voice, "Just don't delay your studies because of these things."

Lin Jinyu understood, and blinked, "No, I have a sense of proportion. Sister, do you like this piano and the score?"

Lin Daiyu nodded and said with a smile, "It's all very good. The collection at Mr.'s house is certainly not ordinary."

"It wasn't given by my husband," Lin Jinyu stuck out her tongue, "it was given to my sister by Brother Mu Li. I was afraid that my sister would think it was given by an outsider and would not accept it, so I lied to my sister that it was given by my husband."

Lin Daiyu was a little annoyed, pinched Lin Jinyu's fat face, and said angrily, "You really need to clean up."

Lin Jinyu took Lin Daiyu's little hand, touched it twice, and then said, "Sister, this is not the time to be shy. You may not have seen Brother Mu, a handsome man with strong martial arts. Didn't my sister go to stay for a few days when my grandmother celebrated her birthday last time?" My God? I'm afraid someone will harm you, so I will guard you during the day, and Brother Mu will protect you at Rongguo Mansion at night. It is the jade pendant I gave you that can test poison, and it is also a treasure passed down from Brother Mu's family."

Lin Daiyu glared at her younger brother, and asked, "But the patrolling soldier Ma Si who rescued you last time?"

"Yes, that's him." Lin Jinyu said, "Brother Mu used to protect Mr. at our house. My sister has never seen him before. He has been coming to our house to make friends with me since last year. He will give you everything, such as flute, piano, plain paper and jade pen. , not very valuable, good intentions, and taught martial arts to the guards. Speaking of which, as early as in Yangzhou, when we were studying with my husband, he secretly protected me and met my sister. Because I admire my sister, I have never been married and have no way at home. A concubine's room. And as I said, he wants to be a couple for the rest of his life, and he will never accept small things."

Lin Daiyu lowered her head and did not speak. She is not an idiot, on the contrary she is sensitive and sensitive. My younger brother often sends things over this year, and there are quite a few exquisite and small objects, which he says are gifts from his husband.Their siblings have been together with their husband for a long time, never before.Lin Daiyu was a little suspicious, but she had always trusted her younger brother, so she didn't think much about it, now that she thinks about it, it's because of this.

Lin Jinyu looked at You Men'er and sighed, "However, I am not very satisfied with one thing. Brother Mu is the concubine of the king of Dong'an County. I am not picking on my concubine. I simply don't want my sister to marry. Grandmother's family already knew about it. However, Brother Mu has a house bestowed by the Long Live God. He moved out of the palace long ago, and he will live alone in the future. His mother died young, and his sister will not be honored by her in-laws in the future. , what do you say?"

After all, it is a lifelong event, Lin Daiyu's voice was like a mosquito, and she could hardly hear it, "People like them have no reason to have concubines and maidservants, don't be deceived."

Lin Jinyu took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, handed it to Lin Daiyu, and said with a smile, "Sister, look at the paperwork I made. If he wants to marry my sister, he has to sign it. If he breaks any rule in the future, I won't kill him!"

Lin Daiyu glanced at it briefly, dumbfounded, and put it on the table without saying a word, Lin Jinyu said, "To be honest with my sister, he admired you when he was in Yangzhou. It has been several years now, and his ambition has not changed, which shows his sincerity. Parents in those years Passed away one after another, and our family has always kept filial piety. Brother Mu served in the court after returning to Beijing. , I don’t want to mention it too much, I rejected it all. Seeing that we are going to be filial piety, that’s what he said.”

"The Prince's Mansion," Lin Daiyu pondered, "Could it be that we are climbing high?" Since her parents passed away, Daiyu only took care of her younger brother. After seeing the intrigue in Rongguo Mansion, she was a little tired of these noble families.

Lin Jinyu shook her eyebrows proudly, "Sister, don't worry, I told Brother Mu that if we can invite the emperor to give me a marriage, we will accept it, otherwise I will never agree to him kneeling on the ground begging me. Besides, the whole world Man, I haven't seen anyone who can be worthy of my sister, what can't be climbed, let me say this is the blessing he cultivated in his previous life."

Lin Daiyu blushed and spat, "You really have cultivated your cheeks, I'm ashamed of you to death, shut up quickly."

Lin Jinyu took a sip of tea and laughed, "I can't shut up now, sister, reasoning, the bridesmaids, mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law who are dowry, now it's time to start choosing. How can sister arrange these big girls? It's hard to be clear, sister It’s good to have a count in your heart.”

Lin Daiyu nodded, "I'm an older sister, so I made you worry about me."

"Which one of us is with whom? When my sister is worried, then it's enough for my sister to help me find a pretty girl." Lin Jinyu laughed.

"Go and read your book, you're still daydreaming." Lin Daiyu kicked the person out coquettishly, sitting on the couch and watching this piano and this song again, the taste is a bit different, holding the jade on her chest He felt his heart pounding, and his jade-like face was flushed like a fire.

Lin Jinyu was sure of her sister's intentions, and she also put aside her worries. When she happened to go to Rongguo Mansion, she heard that her sisters and Baoyu had moved to live in the Grand View Garden, together with Xue Baochai, as described in the book.It's just that Jia's mother didn't ask Daiyu to come over and leave the Xiaoxiang Pavilion to Shi Xiangyun. Presumably the old lady of Rongguo Mansion has given up the idea of ​​marrying the two families and has other ideas.

In Lixiangyuan, the daughter's marriage has been fixed, and Aunt Xue is worrying about her son's marriage.This son, reckless, arrogant and extravagant is not a big weapon, but in the final analysis, he is his own son, and he will rely on him for the rest of his life. Even if he has shortcomings, he is not a big challenge in Aunt Xue's eyes.Because her daughter always has her own ideas, Aunt Xue will inevitably discuss with her daughter.

Xue Baochai said softly, "According to me, family status and appearance are second. The key is to be able to control and persuade my brother."

"My son, you really spoke to my heart." Aunt Xue smiled and stroked her daughter's beautiful face, and asked, "Is it okay to live in the garden, and your aunt personally picked the Hengwu courtyard. How is Yun girl?"

Xue Baochai laughed, "Sister Yun was sent by her aunt to pick her up."

Aunt Xue was about to speak with a smile, when she heard a rush of footsteps outside, the curtain was raised, and a voice from outside said, "Madam, Miss, the uncle is back."

Xue Pan entered the room with a smile, "Mom, my sister is here too."

Xue Baochai pursed her lips and smiled, "Mom, it just so happens that my brother is here, and my mother asked him what his plans are, so we can choose to see each other."

"What are you planning or not?" Xue Pan asked with a smile.

Aunt Xue said with a smile, "Sit down first, let's see how old you are, and if you are still in a panic, you won't be afraid that your sister will laugh at you."

After Xue Pan sat down, Aunt Xue spoke.Xue Pan was taken aback for a moment, then blushed, Xue Baochai covered her lips and smiled, "Mom, look at how stupid brother is."

Xue Pan blushed even more, feeling a little embarrassed, Aunt Xue smiled, "How many of us are there, there is nothing to say, but whoever you fancy, tell mom, mom will come for you."

"Mom," Xue Pan scratched his head in a daze, and said with a somewhat naive face, "How do you look at the girl from the Lin family?"

Aunt Xue's face sank immediately, and she said angrily, "You've taken a fancy to that girl! When have you seen her before!"

Xue Baochai hurriedly comforted her mother, and said softly, "Mom, don't worry, speak slowly."

"It was me that time. When I broke into the old lady's room, I took a look," Xue Pan said. "That Miss Lin is really like a fairy daughter. My son wants to marry someone like that."

Aunt Xue pointed at Xue Pan and trembled with anger, "You bastard, how much our family was angry with their siblings, how many tears I shed with your sister, you were sent to prison by others, beat you You can't get out of bed, and you still want to marry his family! Let me tell you, don't even think about it if I'm alive!"

Xue Pan was also annoyed, and said angrily, "Then mom doesn't have to ask me, just find one!" He threw the curtain and went out!

Aunt Xue grabbed her daughter's hand and beat her chest with tears in her eyes, "Oh my injustice, my injustice!"

Xue Baochai narrowed her eyes, then smiled, "Mom, don't be sad, it's good to listen to my daughter's analysis."

Aunt Xue was the most convinced of her daughter's knowledge, Xue Baochai said softly, "I heard from the old man in the house that the Lin family was also from a noble family background, and their family status is not low. What's more, when Lin Ruhai was an official in the Yangzhou Salt Administration, Mom knew about those salt merchants. Wealthy, the big officials that salt merchants have to curry favor with, the Lin family will definitely not be weak. Besides, it is also very good to see Miss Lin's appearance. Mom hates them for humiliating our family before. If Miss Lin is assigned to my brother, It's not just following my mother's orders."

"My son, how can the Lin family not know what you think of? They will never agree. Why should we humiliate ourselves?" Aunt Xue said.

Xue Baochai pursed her lips and said, "Mother, why did you forget someone? The empress is the honor of the imperial concubine. If the empress offers marriage, can the Lin family refuse? My aunt also hates the Lin family, so there is absolutely no reason to disagree. If Lin is married to her elder brother, the old lady He will also think highly of our family. Not to mention Lin Jinyu, for his own sister's sake, he has to be polite."

Aunt Xue patted her daughter's hand with a smile, "My son is always full of strategies, so I'll tell your aunt about it."

"Wait a minute, mother. Now that the Lin family is still in filial piety, it will take some time. Mom doesn't have to tell my aunt that it's my idea. Just say that my brother admires Lin girl. I ask your mother for an idea." Xue Baochai said with a smile, "before The money collected in the palace is still taken by our family, and my aunt will definitely do it."

Aunt Xue hugged her daughter in relief, feeling even more deeply that if Baochai was a son, it would be a great kindness.
