Full grade Daiyu in the Red Chamber

Chapter 26

But she said that the father and daughter of the Lin family were happy to meet again, and there was another burst of tears. After finally calming down, Daiyu noticed that the little boy who had been standing quietly by the side, was dressed in blue clothes, and his figure was a little thinner. , who is only eight years old is quite tall, with exquisite eyebrows and fair skin, but he seems to be a little mature, looks very taciturn, not at all lively and detached like a child, like a little old man.

However, thinking of what his father said in his letter, it is understandable. The child's life experience is really miserable. He lost his parents unexpectedly when he was only four years old, and then he and his family's property were taken over by his only uncle. But the uncle and aunt's family are not kind people, they won the family's property but they are not willing to treat the family's children kindly, the patriarch's hard and soft words don't work, the family's rascals, fortunately, the people in the family can't stand it I often help him with some food, so at least the child doesn't starve to death.

Just like this, the owner eats one mouthful and the other one eats the west. It is extremely difficult to grow up to the age of eight. With such an experience, it is no wonder that such a young and mature look. , you just call him Xuan'er." Then he said to the little boy, "This is your sister, whose baby name is Daiyu."

The two greeted each other, unexpectedly the young and mature boy blushed at this moment, stuttered a little, obviously very nervous.

After all, it wasn't her own birth, and she naturally lacked confidence in the face of a serious and serious daughter from the Lin family.

Lin Ruhai shook his head and laughed, but he didn't say much. After all, the child is still young, so he just needs to take care of it in the future.

The three of them sat down to hold tea and chatted about the daily life while eating. When it came to going to Rongfu to greet the old lady tomorrow, Daiyu was not happy.

"I don't want to go, my grandmother looks at me more and more strangely, it's creepy."

When Lin Ruhai heard the words, a cold look flashed in his eyes, "Yu'er, don't be afraid, as a father, I will never let anyone hurt you." Now that the emperor has granted a marriage, the old lady's proposal can only be let go. If he tried to use some shady means to force their family to admit to the marriage, then don't blame him for being cruel.

Daiyu burst into joy when she heard the words, and held her father's arm affectionately, feeling that as long as she stayed by her father's side, she would feel a sense of security.

"If I go tomorrow, the old lady will definitely want me to stay. Most likely, she will use the excuse that there are no female elders in the family to teach me... What kind of rules does father have in mind?" Daiyu frowned slightly thinking.

Lin Ruhai replied: "I've thought about this for my father. My father is not too young, and I don't plan to marry another step-wife. It would be a little embarrassing for me to be caught between us, and it's unavoidable for me to be selfish. All aspects of this are incidents, the harm outweighs the benefits, and it is not worth it."

"When I turn around and go to the palace to face the saint for my father, I simply beg the emperor to ask for an old lady who is a face in the palace to come back."

Daiyu laughed as soon as she heard this, "Father thought of going with his daughter."

How to say that sentence, when Cao Cao arrived, Cao Cao said that he was going to beg for a face-saving old nanny, and a slave came to report that it was Yang Nanny who was in front of Empress Xiaoyiren.

Lin Ruhai knew that Empress Xiao Yiren also had a bit of love for her own daughter when she was there, so she didn't push her too much, and immediately led her children to greet her.

"My servant has seen Master Lin." She bowed to the siblings again.

"Nurse, don't be too polite."

"Why is Mammy here now? But what's the matter?"

Nanny Yang looked haggard and looked older, "My mother told me before she passed away that if Miss Lin didn't dislike her, she would ask her servants to stay by Miss Lin's side to serve her in the future... and these things, all It was the dowry of the empress back then, and the empress divided one part into two."

"The silver and the farm shop are left to the fourth elder brother, and the jewelry, antique ornaments, etc. are all left to Miss Lin."

As the daughter of the Lin family, it is impossible to be short of belongings if she lacks anything, but the treasures of Empress Xiaoyi's half life are enough to make anyone tempted.

Besides, Madam Xi could be called a treasure among treasures.

Nanny Xi has served Empress Xiaoyi for more than [-] years. She has gone through countless ups and downs from the Tong Mansion to the imperial palace. Leaving aside other things, her understanding of the ups and downs inside and outside the palace is enough to impress her. Daiyu will be able to do well in the royal family in the future. Besides, being able to firmly dominate the position of "Empress Xiaoyi's first-class confidant" amidst the strife in the harem is not only achieved by affection and loyalty. Knowledge and methods must also be superior.

The muddy water of the royal family is bottomless, if there is such a person by his side, the road will be much smoother.

Daiyu really never imagined that Empress Xiaoyi could still think of her before she died, leaving her such a great gift, she couldn't help being moved for a moment, and her eyes turned red.

"I am very sorry that I can't continue to protect the fourth elder brother and the girl... In the end, that's all she can do, and you can only go on your own in the future... I just hope that no matter what happens, the girl and the fourth elder brother They can support each other and never leave..."

Through such words, it seems to see a scene where a mother has all kinds of concerns and worries about her child, but finally has to let go with regret, which makes people feel moved and heartbroken.

The mothers of the two brothers and sisters of the Lin family both died young, so this moment can't help but add a touch of emotion.

Daiyu held Mammy Xi's hand, and said solemnly: "You can stay here at ease, I will take good care of Mammy till the end of my life."

Lin Ruhai also nodded in agreement, and without saying anything else, he immediately called Uncle Zhong, and said, "Tell me, in the future, Nanny Yang will be the elder of the girl, and no one should be rude, and the cost of food and clothing should be compared with that of the master. Here are some examples."

The implication seems to be that Nanny Xi is the half master of the Lin family.

Uncle Zhong quickly agreed, and said: "The old slave will ask someone to clean up the yard for Mammy." He turned around and asked Mammy Yang if she had any special preferences or taboos, which is very considerate.

Nanny Yang shook her head, said with a faint smile: "There is no need for a yard, just clean up a room in the eldest girl's yard and come out."

The father and daughter meant to support her as an elder, but what she said meant that she firmly fixed herself in the position of a slave, kept to her duty, and refused to go overboard.

People give it, it's polite, it's for face, if she really pushes her nose, it's a joke, a slave is a slave, no matter how high her status is, she is still a slave, at any time, she can't lose the word "duty" .

Daiyu saw that she was determined, so she didn't say anything more, and while ordering the maids and women to register all the things and move them into the warehouse, she dragged Mammy Yang into her yard.

The girl brought tea and fruit, and the two chatted while eating, without any purpose, just to say that they were familiar with each other.

When talking about Empress Xiaoyi, she inevitably thought of her fiancé, Daiyu hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Is fourth elder brother okay?"

Mother Xi paused slightly holding the tea, sighed softly, and said, "Si elder brother has lost a lot of weight, and he has become more and more dull... Although Si elder brother was raised by the mother's side since he was a child, the jade certificate It has not been changed, and he is still the son of Concubine De in name, now that Empress is gone, the fourth elder brother can only return to Concubine De's side again."

"Young lady doesn't know, although this concubine De is the biological mother of the fourth elder brother, but because of the empress, she always treats the fourth elder brother with disgust. One can imagine, how can the fourth elder brother get good looks from her? "

There is an enmity between Concubine De and Empress Xiaoyi. The reason is that Concubine De climbed onto the dragon bed as a maid of Chengqian Palace and slapped Empress Xiaoyi hard, so Empress Xiaoyi hated her. After getting married to her, she never stopped stumbling her. As the saying goes, it is not indecent to come and go. After De Concubine has gained a firm foothold, she will naturally have revenge and revenge, and that's it. The hatred grew deeper and deeper.

But if you really want to get to the bottom of it, it's clearly her own fault that caused what happened next. Shouldn't Empress Xiaoyi take revenge on her? What right does she have to hate Empress Xiaoyi? Even if she takes another [-] steps For the time being, let’s assume that both parties are at fault, but how innocent is the fourth elder brother? How can he still hate his own son?
Nanny Yang never figured this out.

After hearing this, Daiyu fell silent, her adoptive mother passed away, and her biological mother still loathes her so much, what kind of mood should fourth elder brother be in? I'm afraid this day will also plummet.

Now that the words just came to this point, Nanny Yang simply said a few more words, "Concubine De really hates the fourth elder brother from the bottom of her heart. As the future Sifu Jin, the girl will not be able to please her. Concubine De has her favorite Sifu Jin candidates, but the empress likes you more... With such a trouble in it, Concubine De will hate girls even more."

Daiyu pursed her lips, and said: "I can see that the emperor gave a decree to grant the marriage earlier, so she sent a few court ladies to the fourth elder brother, isn't it because I am unhappy?"

"Concubine De is narrow-minded, and her temper is very extreme. Love desires life and evil desires death. Once she decides in her heart, there is absolutely no possibility of turning around. She is very paranoid. In the future, the girl will have to face virtue frequently. Concubine, you must be extremely careful."

What Yang Nanny said was not false, but her intentions were not so pure. As the confidant of Empress Xiaoyi, she would not be willing to see the future Sifujin go down to please that bitch Defei. This is also one of the reasons why Empress Xiaoyi asked her to come here.

The fourth elder brother, Si Fujin, can only be her mother's good son and daughter-in-law.

Daiyu hadn't thought of this, but she hadn't planned to live in harmony with the concubine De, just judging from the few words recorded in the history books, it was enough to see the extremely bad relationship between the mother and child. She is not the Holy Mother whose holy light shines on the earth. Could it be possible that she can still think of using herself as a bridge to try her best to repair some kind of mother-child relationship? It is purely self-impressed that she is full.

But Xueyan, who was sitting by the side and listened quietly and didn't talk much, became less calm. The more she listened, the more worried she became, and she was very worried about the future of her daughter.

"With such a mother-in-law on top, can life be easier?"

"Supper is ready, and the master and uncle are waiting for the girl."

"Understood." Daiyu nodded and stood up, and said to Mammy Yang, "Mammy should eat first, so you don't have to come to my place anymore, I think it's been a long time coming here, Mammy has worked so hard, let's take a break first Rest and recuperate, in the future there will be plenty of places for nuns to work on."

Grandma Yang agreed with a smile.
