The Red Mansion En Xiaohou

Chapter 56 Xue Scorpion
The Huaiyang generation was rich in salt. If Jinling is the political center of the south, Yangzhou is the economic center of the entire Huaiyang area.

In order to facilitate the management of the southern salt administration, Taizu set up the yamen of patrolling salt censors in Yangzhou.

Going down the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal, Jia Shan and his party finally arrived at the boundary of Yangzhou.

Lin Ruhai received the news and went to the pier to greet her in person.

Arrived at the pier, looking at the big river.

Thinking of her daughter whom she hadn't seen for almost two years, Lin Ruhai couldn't help but shed tears.

on board,

Lin Daiyu, who was about to see Lin Ruhai, was very nervous.

Afraid that Lin Ruhai would disappoint her, Lin Daiyu couldn't help crying when she thought of this.

Nanny Shen, who knew what Lin Daiyu was thinking, held Lin Daiyu in her arms distressedly.

"It's not good to cry too much on the way home, girl, stop crying."

Lin Daiyu couldn't hold it back anymore, and cried loudly in Nanny Shen's arms.

"At the beginning, my father took me to the capital with great difficulty, and now that I'm back, will my father blame me, Mother Shen?"

"how could be."

Nanny Shen patted Lin Daiyu on the back, softly comforting her.

"Master Lin sees you happy before it's too late, how can you be angry, it's not good to cry too much, girl, stop crying."

Aunt Shen wiped the tears of Lin Daiyu in her arms with a handkerchief.

In another cabin, Jia Shan, who met Lin Ruhai for the first time, carefully packed up her appearance.

Soon the ship will dock.

Jia Shan and Lin Daiyu followed Jia Jing to the deck.

Lin Ruhai and his servant stood at the highest point of the pier facing the wind.

Lin Daiyu saw Lin Ruhai from afar.

Lin Ruhai, whose father and daughter were connected, waved in the direction of the Jia family's boat.

Seeing her father, Lin Daiyu wept with joy, her voice was covered by the sound of the river.

Sensing Lin Daiyu's emotions, Jia Shan reached out to support Lin Daiyu, and Lin Daiyu cried while holding Jia Shan's arm.

the boat docked,
Lin Ruhai ran to the shore excitedly, Lin Daiyu got off the boat and threw herself into her father's arms.

Looking at his daughter whom he hadn't seen for a long time, Lin Ruhai's tears flowed down his face.

The two father and daughter cried for a while before recovering from the lovesickness they hadn't seen for many years.

Lin Daiyu was helped into the carriage by the servants brought by Lin Ruhai.

Jia Jing smiled and nodded towards Lin Ruhai.

"Uncle Lin." Jia Shan saluted Lin Ruhai.

"Good good!"

Lin Ruhai said hello to Jia Shan three times, and helped Jia Shan up.

Lin Daiyu mentioned Jia Shan a lot in her letter, looking at Jia Shan in front of her, Lin Ruhai's eyes were more scrutinized.

"How is your father in Beijing?"

Lin Ruhai asked about his brother-in-law Jia She.

Jia Shan truthfully told the truth about Jia She's situation in Rongguo Mansion, after hearing that Jia She had regained the seal of general.

Lin Ruhai smiled.

Entering the Lin family, the style of the Lin family is completely opposite to that of the Jia family. Everywhere is exquisite, like ink painting, full of the artistic conception of Jiangnan gardens.

After everyone rested, Lin Ruhai hosted a banquet for everyone.

After that, the three of them talked in secret.

The focus is on the Zhen family.

After hearing that the emperor was willing to save him, Lin Ruhai secretly made a decision to resign after the Zhen family affairs were over.

Don't trouble the emperor.

Someone from the Xue family is coming.

Jia Shan was woken up from the bed by a servant, and heard that it was from Xue's family.

Jashan is still covered.

After sitting on the boat for several days, Jia Shan felt her feet were soft even when she got off the ground.

With the help of the servant, Jia Shan tidied up.

Jia Shan hurried over and met the legendary Xue Ji.

He really deserves to be Xue Baoqin's brother.

The long Zhilan Yushu, gentle and gentle, doesn't look like a child of a merchant's family at all.

Jia Shan couldn't help but start to wonder.

Xue Baochai and Xue Pan are both good-looking. It seems that the Xue family should have good looks. Why did Xue Pan look like that?

Gradually, Jia Shan was attracted by the conversation of the three.

Jia Jing told Lin Ruhai and Xue Biao the emperor's information.

Xue's family has a big business, and Xue Biao knows a little about Cao Gang's plans.

Jia Jing's information was confirmed.

Several people smiled.

Xue Biao's complexion still didn't improve.

"The two uncles, don't be too happy too soon."

Xue Biao reminded the two of them.

Lin Ruhai and Jia Jing looked at Xue Biao suspiciously.

Xue Biao explained to Lin Ruhai and Jia Jing.

During the period of the Supreme Emperor, a large-scale bandit suppression was organized, and the trust of the civil gangs like the Cao Gang in the court was almost zero.

The expressions of Lin Ruhai and Jia Jing became serious.

They didn't think of this.

The Supreme Emperor's suppression of bandits not only suppressed bandits, but also suppressed some large gangs.

Among them, the Cao Gang and the Hong Gang are the first among the civil gangs with force.

Lin Ruhai and Jia Jing became worried again.

"Nephew Xue Xian has insights into these gangs."

Jia Jing looked at Xue Biao.

Xue Biao shook his head at Lin Ruhai and Jia Jing.

"The Xue family has its own ships and chamber of commerce, and has very little dealings with these gangs.

However, there is an elder in my Xue family who has a good understanding of the relationship between these gangs. "

Xue Biao provided Lin Ruhai and Jia Jing with a direction.

The eyes of Lin Ruhai and Jia Jing lit up.

"That old man is in Yangzhou."

Lin Ruhai asked Xue Biao.

Xue Biao nodded.

"It's in Yangzhou!"

"It's just." Xue Biao put on a wry smile, and Lin Ruhai and Jia Jing's heart was lifted in an instant, "It's just that the old man in my family has a very weird temper. He has lived in seclusion until now, and has never seen anyone except his own family."

"I came to Yangzhou to pay a visit to his house, and all I saw was his son."

Lin Ruhai sighed deeply.

"Nephew would be willing to help introduce his son."

"It's not a problem. If Uncle Shi is willing, I can take you to see him today."

"it is good!"

Lin Ruhai readily agreed.

It is better to hit the sun than to choose the day, because if it is delayed for a long time, accidents will happen.

Lin Ruhai and Jia Jing followed Xue Biao to meet the person Xue Biao mentioned.

Jason was left behind.

Bored, Jia Shan went to the backyard to play with Lin Daiyu.

In Lin Daiyu's courtyard,

When Jia Rong went out early in the morning, Qin Keqing had nothing to do to find Lin Daiyu as a companion, and asked Lin Daiyu about the fun places in Yangzhou.

Lin Daiyu introduced Qin Keqing with a smile.

Qin Keqing wrote down what Lin Daiyu said one by one in her heart.

Let Jia Rong take him around Yangzhou City tomorrow.

Two beautiful women were joking.

Jia Shan opened the curtain at the door, and was attracted by this big and small beauty.

"Why are you in a daze, why don't you come in when you come."

Lin Daiyu noticed Jia Shan at the door and teased Jia Shan.

Jia Shan blushed and touched her head in embarrassment.

"Sister, what are you talking about with your niece and daughter-in-law so happily?"

Jia Shan came to Lin Daiyu and sat down.

Lin Daiyu gave Jia Shan a disgusted look, and wiped Jia Shan's sweat with a handkerchief.

"Keqing and I are talking about the beauty of Yangzhou."

"I really hope my sister can always be this happy."

Seeing Lin Daiyu's smile, Jia Shan couldn't help sighing, and the answer was wrong.

When did Lin Daiyu laugh so presumptuously in Jia's house?

In my memory, Lin Daiyu always covered her mouth with a handkerchief when she laughed in Rongguo Mansion. She seemed to be smiling, but there was always a bit of sadness between her eyebrows.

Unlike here, smiling so heartily and generously.

Lin Daiyu blushed when she saw Jia Shan.
