The journey of the heavens by Jia Huan, the salted fish

Chapter 137 Baoyu Apprenticeship
Wang Xifeng has a few girls to help, although there are many affairs, they are not too busy.

Knowing that Jia Lian was coming back today, Wang Xifeng finished her affairs for the day early and waited for Jia Lian in her room.

Seeing Jia Lian, Wang Xifeng showed a smiling face, and said straightly: "The uncle of the country is very happy! The journey of the uncle of the country has been hard. I heard that yesterday's head reported to Ma Lai, saying that today I am driving home, and I have prepared a glass of water and wine to dust off the dust. I don't know whether to grant light and misleading?"

Jia Lian also laughed, and replied, "How dare you, don't you dare, take more and more."

Ping'er and other maids rushed forward to help Jia Lian change clothes and wash up, all busy.

After Jia Lian cleaned up, she fell on the couch, not wanting to get up.

I'm so tired today.

He couldn't figure it out. He came back by himself and reported to his father. Why did he have to report to the second room?
The second room really regarded them as the real masters of Rongguo Mansion.

Seeing his appearance, Wang Xifeng couldn't help feeling distressed: "Why are you so tired?"

Jia Lian sighed: "After going to the old ancestor's place, I still have to go to the master's place, and then to the second master's place. I haven't stopped since I returned home, can I not be tired?"

Wang Xifeng: "Uh, I'm really tired."

She ordered a maid to come forward, massage Jia Lian's body, and pour wine for Jia Lian herself.

Jia Lian was already hungry, struggled to get up, picked up the chopsticks, and began to eat.

While eating, he asked about the affairs of Fuchu.

Wang Xifeng picked up the important ones and told Jia Lian, and then asked Jia Lian: "Are you really studying with your uncle in Yangzhou? You are not looking for a reason to stay in Yangzhou to visit brothels, right?"

"What are you talking about?" Jia Lian said angrily, "I have so many places to study, where do I have time to visit brothels? Don't believe me, why don't you ask Sister Lin if I have been following Lin for the past six months. Uncle's side."

Wang Xifeng quickly shunned Jia Lian and begged for mercy: "It's my fault. I wronged the second master. Please forgive me."

Jia Lian snorted arrogantly.

Wang Xifeng drove the little girl away and massaged Jia Lian herself.

Jia Lian looked intoxicated and enjoying himself.

Pressing and pressing, Jia Lian became distracted.

The husband and wife reunited after a long absence, the long drought and the rain...

The next day, both Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng got up late.

After they had breakfast, Wang Xifeng went to deal with the affairs of the mansion, while Jia Lian got dressed and went out.

Wang Xifeng was surprised: "Where are you going?"

Jia Lian: "I'll go to Uncle Lin. Uncle has just returned to Beijing and has a lot of business. I'm going to help."

Wang Xifeng: "You are more attentive to Uncle Lin than to Elder Master and Second Master!"

Jia Lian: "Uncle Lin will help me find a real job in the household department."

Wang Xifeng's eyes lit up all of a sudden: "Then go quickly."

Uncle Lin supported her man so much, she would treat Uncle Lin as her own father and be filial.

Jia Lian went to Lin's mansion to help Lin Ruhai run errands.

Compared to running errands for Jia Zheng, Jia Lian was more willing and happy to run errands for Lin Ruhai.

Lin Ruhai has a wide network of contacts. Jia Lian helped him run errands and met many officials with real power.

This will also become his network in the future.

Jia Lian's ability is really good, with him as his helper, Lin Ruhai quickly handled the affairs of the mansion.

On the third day after returning to Beijing, he brought Lin Daiyu to Rongguo Mansion to meet Jia Mu.

When Jia's mother saw Lin Daiyu, she held her tightly and insisted on keeping Lin Daiyu in Rongguo Mansion.

Lin Ruhai knew that Lin Daiyu missed the Jia family's sisters, so he agreed. He left Lin Daiyu in the backyard to accompany Jia's mother, while he went drinking with Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng.

Lin Ruhai chatted with Jia She about inscriptions and antiques, and Jia Zheng talked about the Four Books and Five Classics, which made both of them very happy chatting, and they regarded Lin Ruhai as a confidant.

Jia Lian was speechless watching from the sidelines, and admired Lin Ruhai even more.

As expected of Tanhualang, he has such a wealth of knowledge.

Should I read more books?

Lin Ruhai told Jia She and Jia Zheng about letting Jia Lian go to the household department. Jia She and Jia Zheng expressed doubts about Jia Lian's ability to do the work of the household department.

Jia Lian: "..."

Jia Lian: I will definitely make achievements and surprise you two who despise me.

Jia Amnesty thanked Lin Ruhai for taking care of Jia Lian, and Jia Zheng thought of his own son.

Jia Lian has grown a lot in half a year by Lin Ruhai's side.

If I send Jia Baoyu to study with Lin Ruhai, will I be able to make progress?
Jia Zheng: "Brother-in-law, well, I have a heartfelt request."

Lin Ruhai: "Second uncle, please go ahead and talk."

Jia Zheng: "That scoundrel in my family has a bit of a talent for reading, but he is rather lazy. I thought, can I ask my brother-in-law to help me teach that scoundrel?"

Lin Ruhai knew from Daiyu's nanny, Xueyan and other maids that her daughter lived with Jia Baoyu and had a very close relationship.

He and Jia's mother had originally agreed to let the two children get married, and he was more relieved to know that the two children had a good relationship.

Therefore, upon hearing Jia Zheng's request, Lin Ruhai did not refuse and agreed.

Jia Zheng was overjoyed, and hurriedly called his servants to report the good news in the backyard.

Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang were also very happy to hear about it.

Although Mrs. Wang doesn't like Jia Min, she recognizes the talent of Lin Ruhai, a Tanhualang. When she hears that her son can learn from Lin Ruhai, she is naturally willing.

And Jia Baoyu thought that since he became Lin Ruhai's student, he could often go to Lin's house to visit Sister Lin, so of course he would not refuse.

All of a sudden, everyone is happy.

A few days later, Lin Ruhai's appointment came down and he became the Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

The Ministry of Officials is the yamen in charge of the promotion of hundreds of officials, and those who can enter this yamen are the emperor's confidants.

It can be seen that the emperor valued Lin Ruhai very much.

At the same time, the imperial decree of marriage was also issued.

Lin Ruhai and Lin Daiyu had complicated thoughts after receiving the imperial edict.

Lin Daiyu felt sad for Jia Min, but she also knew that her father could remarry, which would be good to both her father and the Lin family.

She suppressed the sourness in her heart and congratulated Lin Ruhai.

Lin Ruhai sighed, and stretched out his hand to stroke his daughter's head: "You are the most cherished child of my father, even if I marry another wife and have other children, they will not be able to replace your position in my father's heart."

Lin Daiyu's tears flowed down all at once.

Jia Baoyu hurried up to comfort Lin Daiyu.

He now comes to the Lin family to report every day.

After Lin Ruhai inspected Jia Baoyu's progress and learned about Jia Baoyu's temperament, he knew that it wasn't that the child didn't like reading, but that he didn't like the Four Books and Five Classics, and he didn't like officialdom.

Lin Ruhai didn't necessarily want his son-in-law to enter the officialdom, so he guided Jia Baoyu to read more useful miscellaneous books, and taught Jia Baoyu the contents of the Four Books and Five Classics.

Jia Baoyu liked Lin Ruhai's way of teaching very much, so he started to learn it seriously.

After Jia Zheng passed the school examination several times, he found that Jia Baoyu could answer all his questions and was very satisfied.

Mrs. Wang was also very satisfied, and her attitude towards Lin Daiyu was much better.
