Chapter 246 I Want to See Lin Daiyu!

When Baoyu fainted, Jia's mother panicked. When Jia's mother panicked, the Jia family was in chaos. The relationship here is really a chain of links, which makes people laugh and cry.

This Baoren was still unconscious, and the servants in the mansion did not dare to act rashly. When Jia's mother rushed to Jia Lian's room, she saw the confused servants put a few tables and chairs together and put Baoyu flat on them.

The old lady was anxious for a moment and scolded directly: "Who came up with the idea to put my good grandson like this..."

The person who came up with this plan was a servant in his own room. Jia Lian couldn't help but look embarrassed and didn't dare to respond to Jia's mother's words. Wang Xifeng had just arrived not long ago. She led Ping'er to stand in one place and didn't have time to take charge of the overall situation.

But who is Wang Xifeng? She took two steps forward, and she was anxious and panicked with every step. When she came to Jia's mother, her face was already anxious and panicked, and she kept saying: "Madam, the doctor hasn't arrived yet. The servants in the room are not knowledgeable enough to make their own decisions."

After Wang Xifeng finished speaking, Ping'er said anxiously: "Madam, calm down. I will ask someone to send the second master to the lady's room..."

The two of them sang in unison and pointed out the difficulties in Jia Lian's room. The only bed that was qualified for Baoyu to lie on was the inner room of Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng. This was the private place of the brother and sister-in-law, and it was too inappropriate to let a brother-in-law lie on it. This was Rongguo Mansion, not Ningguo Mansion.

The old lady wanted to understand the matter, so she had to stop Ping'er's intention again and sat on the chair brought by Yuanyang anxiously. It was because Baoyu's mother came, and when Lady Wang arrived, Jia Zheng followed. Baoyu's parents were here, and others couldn't get a word in for a while.

The room was crowded with people, and they couldn't help asking why Baoyu fainted. Jia Lian was quite smart. He knew that Jia Zheng was present and some things were not easy to say. He avoided the topic and kept asking about the imperial physician.

After a while, Wang, the imperial physician who often treated Jia Mu, finally arrived. Seeing that there were many people in the room, he immediately drove more than half of them out. After taking the pulse, Wang replied to Jia Mu and Jia Zheng, saying that the young master was angry and had to take good care of himself, but he must remember not to get angry again.

He also prescribed a few medicines and asked them to boil them in the morning and evening. The family felt relieved and sent the imperial physician out. After the outsiders left, Jia Zheng couldn't help but express his doubts. He had only been home for half a year, and before that he had been away from home for three years as a school official. He didn't know much about Baoyu's affairs, so he pulled Jia Lian to ask a few questions.

Jia Mu was still in front of him, so Jia Lian didn't dare to say anything. In the end, it was Jia's mother who helped him out and called several maids from Yihong Courtyard to escort their master back to the courtyard.

After such a hasty ending, Jia's mother took Yuanyang to Yihong Courtyard in person. It seemed that she would not be able to sleep unless she waited for Baoyu to wake up.

…………

…………

The master and the lady left first, and Wang Xifeng could not help but talk to Jia Lian that night.

"Did you tell Baoyu about his uncle's family?"

"You can guess this?" Jia Lian was very surprised, but he was not surprised when he thought about Wang Xifeng's intelligence and talent. If she didn't have this ability, how could she control the inside and outside of the Jia Mansion? "I just said a word, and he fainted. I was scared."

"What a fool." Wang Xifeng shook her head and sighed, not knowing who she was scolding. She had just recovered from a serious illness and needed to recuperate for a long time. Thinking of the moral character of the men in the Jia family, she couldn't help but speak with sarcasm, "They are all useless, thinking about what others have in their bowls all day long."

This scolding really made people think too much. Jia Lian was worried that Wang Xifeng would find out about his concubine, so he was trying to find out his bottom line, and it was difficult to respond for a while.

Ping'er was watching from the side, thinking that if the couple quarreled, she would suffer again. She spoke up to help, "Didn't the empress in the palace intend to arrange a marriage for Master Bao and Miss Xue? Master Bao, why are you still obsessed with Miss Lin?"

As soon as she said this, Wang Xifeng's attention was immediately diverted. Jia Lian's problem was their internal matter. But once Baochai married into the mansion, the matter involved would be a fundamental conflict of interest.

"Who knows what men think." Wang Xifeng was also a headache. She had planned to marry Daiyu and Baoyu in her early years.

Although Daiyu is as smart as Baochai, she is not as smooth as the latter in dealing with people. But when it comes to the selection of younger brothers and sisters, it must be the most advantageous to marry Daiyu. The comparison is a matter of personal opinion. But Wang Xifeng's eyesight in judging people is definitely worth talking about.

However, it is useless for her to think about this matter. Daiyu fell in love with the scholar surnamed Chen before he became famous. Now that he is a noble, he has heard a lot of the romantic officials in the imperial street. Even she, a woman who never goes out, has heard a lot.

For such a man, what can Baoyu compare with him, and how could Daiyu change her feelings.

"Hey, what do you know." Hearing Wang Xifeng's complaint, Jia Lian laughed mischievously, "As the saying goes, a wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as a secret lover, and a secret lover is not as good as not being able to steal."

He is a playboy, and he pointed out Baoyu's mentality in a few words. She shook her head again, "You don't know until you go out. I heard outside that the marriage of the number one scholar is arranged by the emperor."

"What?" Wang Xifeng exclaimed. Passing the imperial examination and getting an arranged marriage by the emperor are two completely different things. Wang Xifeng also saw the meaning behind it.

The matter between Baoyu and Daiyu must be beyond redemption.

…………

…………

Baoyu didn't wake up until the second watch. His awakening made Jia Mu, who had been waiting all night, very happy. Baoyu had been raised by Jia Mu since he was a child, and the relationship between the two was really deep. But before Jia Mu could say anything, Baoyu, who was pale, was already in tears.

"My son, my son." Seeing this, Jia's mother was so desperate that her heart ached like a knife, and she cried, "How about you tell grandma any grievances you have in your heart?"

"Old lady..." Baoyu pushed herself up and said angrily, "...I...want to see Sister Lin."

Ah this... Jia Mu didn't know what to say. She guessed that Baoyu's sudden coma must be related to Daiyu's marriage. But now she, an old lady, can no longer interfere in Yu'er's marriage.

Jia Min rarely takes her daughter back to her parents' home. Isn't her meaning clear enough? Not to mention, there is an emperor behind the marriage.

Seeing that the old lady who had always had great powers was in trouble, Jia Baoyu sobbed and begged again: "Old lady, I just want to see her once, just once."

Hearing her sweetheart begging like this, Jia Mu saw it and felt pain in her heart. He had no choice but to say: "Take good care of yourself. When you feel better, how about we go to your aunt's house?"

"Okay." A faint hope rose in Baoyu's eyes, and he slumped on the bed again.

…………

…………

On April 20th, Baoyu, who was barely able to maintain his health, went to visit the Lin family with Jia Mu. Jia Min thought it was her mother who came to inquire about Daiyu's marriage, so she hurriedly invited her elders into the house. It can be seen that Baoyu, a pistachio, is also following him, which makes him feel a little strange.

The Lin family's mother-in-law and maids were all trained by Jia Min. The mistress then invited her natal relatives to come in and sit down. The servants who went to report at the back told Daiyu the news of Baoyu's arrival.

At this time, Daiyu was preparing things for Chen Heng to return to Yangzhou. It would be unreasonable for him not to return to his hometown to pay homage to his ancestors. During this trip, my brother will also visit his mentors and former classmates.

Not to mention the gifts for sister Yinglian, gifts for my mentor Xie are also indispensable. The sixteen-year-old girl was worried about the gift. When she heard that her grandmother had come with her cousin, she was very reluctant, but she still came to the main hall to see her elders.

Jia's mother was fine. She didn't say anything when she saw her granddaughter. He only said that he brought some jewelry, which were his favorites when he was young. The precious granddaughter is growing up day by day, and it is just a good time to decorate the little girl.

Decorate? The little girl doesn't go out on weekdays, so what else can she do to dress up? It's just to prepare for Daiyu's wedding. Jia Min finally let go of her worries when she learned her mother's intention. Let Daiyu receive the things and thank Jia Mu for her kindness.

After a while of pleasantries, the atmosphere among everyone was quite appropriate. It was almost noon, so Jia Min naturally wanted to stay with Jia Mu and Baoyu for dinner. The busyness inside and outside directly caused less attention to Baoyu.

After having a moment of free time, the boy slipped out of the main hall and came to the Lin family's atrium corridor. He waited here for a while and saw Daiyu leading the purple cuckoo and snow geese back.

The three of them had just gone to the front hall to check out the lunch dishes, and there was a girl who was about to get married. Jia Min also found an opportunity and rushed to train her daughter.

When the two parties met like this on the corridor, Daiyu didn't say anything yet. Zijuan's heart was already ringing with alarm, and she looked at Baoyu as if she were guarding against a thief.

"Sister Lin." Baoyu couldn't help but said softly when he saw the wall man again.

The clothes he wore today were all his favorites. After dressing up, he is not only elegant but also handsome like a noble prince. Baoyu's appearance is even more difficult to choose. When such a person appears in the distinguished circle of the capital, he is always praised again and again.

"Cousin." Daiyu bowed slightly as a salute. She was worried that the other party would say something irrelevant and spoil her mood today, so she said, "Everything in the front hall is ready. My cousin can go and wait first. I went to invite my grandmother..."

Before Daiyu could finish her words, Baoyu, who had been waiting for a long time, couldn't wait to interrupt: "Sister Lin, do you really want to marry him?"

Hearing this, Daiyu frowned slightly. She looked Baoyu up and down, and she had vaguely guessed the other party's intention, so she had to say something to deal with it, "Marriage matters are decided by the parents. My cousin was really confused when he asked this question. "

In a straightforward statement, Daiyu meant that the matter was a done deal and that the elders of both families had their preference. Just wait for Chen Heng to come back from Yangzhou and prepare for the six rites.

But Baoyu heard it, but felt that there was still some hope. He just said sadly: "Don't worry about things outside. Sister Lin, I just ask you, do you really like him?"

In this life, if your parents are not alive. Daiyu might just put up with this entanglement and let it go. But now her parents and brothers are here, and her brother is her support. Daiyu's behavior is no longer cautious.

She took the initiative to stop Zicuckoo, who was about to get angry. She just sighed and took the initiative: "Cousin, let me answer this question later. Cousin, I also have a question..."

Seeing that the beauty was willing to take the initiative to talk to her, Baoyu, who looked a little pale, immediately became energetic and said hurriedly: "Cousin, just ask."

"What does my cousin like about me?"

Hearing Daiyu's question, Baoyu said without hesitation: "It must be that he is infatuated. He doesn't think about food and drink, and he can't sleep at night. I heard in the past few days that that person wants to marry someone else besides you. If this matter is left to me In my body, I must have the idea of ​​​​being together for the rest of my life, and I only want to stay with my sweetheart for the rest of my life."

Zicuckoo was very annoyed when she heard it. It was really empty talk, which sounded easy and pleasant to the ears. No one knows that the attackers in your own house are already at your disposal. But with the young lady's previous instructions, she didn't dare to interrupt.

Daiyu looked indifferent, only nodded slightly and said, "My cousin is right." She continued to ask, "Then what has my cousin done?"

What have I done, and haven’t I done enough? It's all in my mind. In order to see you, I try my best every time. Just hearing that you were going to marry someone else made me even sicker. Doesn't this prove my sincerity?

Jia Baoyu was about to take out his heart and show it to Daiyu. But looking at Daiyu's indifferent eyes, she calmed down unconsciously. The look in your sweetheart's eyes is really amazing, it can make you confused and fascinated, but it can also make you fall to the bottom.

When he didn't speak, Daiyu continued: "My cousin came to our house today because he must have caused a scene in front of my grandmother."

"This...I..." Baoyu was at a loss for words and didn't know how to explain this.

"My cousin has been like this since he was a child." Daiyu sighed. "Although when dealing with others, he always faces his daughter's family. But when things come to pass, he only cares about what he wants. If he doesn't go as he wants, he will cry and make trouble."

"Cousin, I..." Baoyu wanted to explain, but couldn't find the words.

"Cousin, you are acting like this every day. Have you ever thought about my difficulties? Have you ever thought about my grandmother's difficulties? Have you ever thought about Sister Bao at all?"

"What about him? He is the same age as me, is he so different?" In desperation, Baoyu moved Chen Heng out again and asked. "If you like scholars, I will definitely study hard in the future and get a good reputation."

Seeing that the other party took the initiative to mention her brother, Daiyu's face showed a smile after the ice and snow melted, and the looming sweetness at the corner of her mouth pierced Baoyu's heart like a knife.

"Cousin, do you still think that I am willing to marry my brother because he has passed the exam?" Daiyu shook her head lightly, and the steps between her buns swayed slightly, making a crisp sound.

"Brother has never made me feel embarrassed, and he always wants to be in front of me in everything. He doesn't talk much, and he wakes up late. Before, he knew how to read every day, so he never had the time to pay attention to my thoughts." Daiyu became more and more controlling as she spoke. Without stopping to talk, he said, "You know that my brother's family is poor, and compared to the rich and powerful, he is still inferior."

"But he never gets a headache or worries about it. He builds mountains when encountering mountains and builds bridges when encountering rivers. I watched him step by step and persevere till today. How can I not like or appreciate him?" Daiyu's face The happiness on earth becomes more and more intense.

"Cousin, you asked me earlier if I like my brother." Daiyu smiled from the bottom of her heart, "Do you know that I already liked my brother as early as when I was six years old. Over the years, it has never changed. Pass."

Baoyu said with heartache: "If it were us who were childhood sweethearts. If it were me who accompanied you since childhood. Would you..."

"No." Daiyu shook her head decisively and said firmly.

"Why?!" Baoyu felt like he was struck by lightning. Why, why was Sister Lin not even willing to lie to herself?

"Cousin, you are not a person worthy of being entrusted with your whole life." She took one last look at Baoyu and advised: "Cousin, it's time for you to grow up. If you really want to persist in your stubbornness, even if someone like Sister Bao marries you, it will be impossible. It won’t be happy.”

"Why am I not worthy of being entrusted with my whole life?" Baoyu was still puzzled. He had never received such great negation since he was born. Daiyu is the first and only one.

"If my cousin wants to understand this problem one day, he will grow up." Daiyu shook her head. She said that, and she just stood up and prepared to leave.

"If nothing happens in the future, my cousin won't have to come to me."

Putting these words aside, Daiyu finally left with Zicuckoo and Xueyan. After this exchange, Baoyu did not dare to look at Daiyu again at the dinner table.

It was not until after they parted that Jia Min saw off Jia Mu and others that she called her daughter into the house and asked about the meeting between Baoyu and Daiyu. There is something in this family that can be hidden from the mistress. Baoyu thought he was perfect, but as soon as he left, someone came to explain the situation to Jia Min.

At Jia Min's age, she has never seen any storms. With such a mother around, Daiyu's ability to see people was also carefully trained by her.

The mother and daughter gathered together and simply took out the treasure jade and said. Jia Min pointed at her daughter and said: "You are not bad at judging people, but I still have to teach you one more time. When you have children in the future, you can teach her. When you choose a man, don't judge him based on how he is." Talking about liking it is just to deceive the little girl who has no experience in the world. "

Daiyu nodded, lying on Jia Min's lap, listening to her mother's nagging.

"The selection of men is similar to the selection of officials by the court. It is important to be talented and virtuous, but more importantly, being able to take on work and support the family is most important." Jia Min raised her hand and stroked Daiyu's bun. "Your cousin is a soft-spoken person who usually doesn't have his own opinions. Most people who marry him can spend time together when they are rich. But when they are in trouble, they will just be a good man sitting at home, only knowing the love and the moon. bitter."

"If a man is capable, his family will be poorer. As long as the husband and wife are of the same mind, there will be no difference in the future." Jia Min said, using her own example, "When I married your father, his family didn't even have an ancestral title. Take it all back to the court. Apart from his talent, what else did your father have? His family's savings are not even comparable to those of your grandfather."

The apple of Duke Rong's eye abandoned all the distinguished children of the capital and insisted on marrying Lin Ruhai. It was also a sensational marriage.

"Didn't Mom marry dad because he is good-looking?" Daiyu raised her head, her eyes full of gossipy excitement.

"You actually took the jokes I told you seriously." Jia Min laughed and tapped Daiyu's forehead with her hand, "Your father's demeanor back then was not bad compared to Heng'er."

“But mother is more interested in his character and his responsibility. Although the Lin family has fallen into decline, your father has never fallen behind in his studies, which shows that he is enterprising. He is kind and filial to his widowed mother, which shows that he knows how to repay kindness.

There is no greater kindness in the world than the kindness of parents in raising children. How can we believe that a person who is not filial to his parents and elders will be loyal to his bedmate from beginning to end?

When he first came into our family and let your grandfather look at him, he was not angry because of the contempt of others, nor was he angry because of the outsiders. A man's wealth and status despises himself. This shows that your father has a prime minister's heart. A man with such a broad mind is the most extraordinary. Only when you can accept the injustice of the world with a smile can you tolerate the little tempers between husband and wife.

When a couple lives together, it is inevitable that there will be bumps and bruises. Your grandfather said at the time that only a man with such a broad mind is worthy of your mother's entrustment for life. "

The more Daiyu listened, the more she felt strange. The more she listened, the more she felt that her father was so similar to her brother. She hurriedly propped herself up from Jia Min's lap and asked curiously: "Mother, why did you do that before? You don't agree to my marrying my brother, and you have to wait until my brother passes the imperial examination before you agree?"

"I can take the risk myself. Whether your father is good or bad in the future, I am happy. This is the person chosen by mother herself. Husband and wife are birds of the same forest. Naturally, they have to share weal and woe. But you are my child. How can I bear to let you suffer even a little?" Seeing that Daiyu didn't quite understand, Jia Min didn't want to explain more. She just evaded the question, "When you become a mother in the future, you will know everything."

"We are both lucky. The people we like can support the family and build a career. This is our luck, but people can't rely on luck alone in their lives. Husband and wife should still respect each other like guests. As the saying goes, strangers should be familiar, acquaintances should be close, and relatives should be strangers. You remember this sentence and figure it out. In your future, mother won't have to worry about you."

"Mother, I remember it." Daiyu nodded seriously, and couldn't help but lie beside Jia Min, like a fledgling leaving the nest, greedy for the warm moment, listening to the other party's repeated words.

"I have met Heng'er's mother. Although she is just a country woman, she is not bad-tempered. She is not a mother-in-law who will make things difficult for others. Heng'er has his own ideas. Even if there are some difficulties occasionally, he will definitely be able to handle your family affairs. Yu'er, you must remember..."

Jia Min talked a lot today. While talking, she even talked Daiyu to sleep. Looking at her daughter's sleeping face, and thinking that she was about to get married, Jia Min was also full of emotion.

Ten months of pregnancy, from the baby's babbling to Yu'er's first "dad and mom", all kinds of past events really make people sigh that time flies.

…………

…………

The palace examination ended in April, but the selection of the Hanlin Academy had to wait until July, which was considered to be reserved for the new Jinshi to go home with peace of mind. On this day at the end of the month, Chen Heng finally packed up and prepared to take his parents home.

Accompanying them were old friends from Yangzhou. Xue Ke and Baoqin need not be mentioned, Jiang Yuanbai and Qian Dayou were even more excited. They all set off in a lively manner, but Daiyu was left alone in the capital, and she only pulled Chen Heng to ask for help before leaving.

"The blue cloth is for Sister Yinglian." Daiyu explained to her brother, who was grinning, the purpose of the things she had sent before, "The things in the yellow cloth are for my sisters and brothers at home, and the last red package is a gift for my teacher. Brother, please don't send it to the wrong person, otherwise I won't forgive you."

"Okay, I know everything." Chen Heng smiled and nodded, and while Daiyu was talking, he looked at his sweetheart again and again.

Today he returned to Yangzhou, and Daiyu couldn't go out to see him off. He came here on purpose to see each other to relieve the separation of half a month.

"Brother, you only know how to laugh." Daiyu muttered, not understanding what this person was laughing at.

"I am laughing..." Chen Heng's smile became more and more rampant, "When I come back, you have to call me husband."

Daiyu was stunned, and hurriedly waved her hand with a shy face, pushing Chen Heng out of the house, "Go, go. In broad daylight, you only know how to say irritating words."

"Then I really have to go." Chen Heng stood in the corridor, and turned back frequently reluctantly, as if he wanted to engrave Daiyu's appearance in his mind.

"Well." Daiyu felt reluctant for no reason, her eyes were red, and she deliberately reminded her lightly, "Go early and come back early."

Chen Heng noticed her strangeness, turned back to the girl, stretched out his strong arms to embrace Daiyu in his arms, smelled the body fragrance of the other person, and he also said softly: "Sister, wait for me."

It's not that they have never been apart in the past, three months, half a year. Only at this moment, a small half month makes people feel melancholy. Moved by emotion, Daiyu hugged Chen Heng's waist with her hands, feeling the temperature of his fingertips

"I know, I'll wait for you to come back."

"Good sister, what are you waiting for me to come back for?"

At this time, she is still thinking about teasing people. Daiyu stretched out her hand and pinched Chen Heng's waist. After a while, she was satisfied. She said softly.

"Wait for you to come back and marry me."

Hahahaha, please vote, please monthly vote, please reward, please recommend votes. I'm hungry, let's go have dinner first.
