From the Red Mansion, you can travel through the world of martial arts

Chapter 294 Daiyu's Marriage
For a moment, Jia Wei's expression was a little strange. He had a lot to say when talking about Baoyu. He was afraid that no one in the world knew Jia Baoyu better than him.

He drank his tea slowly, then started to rant:
"Baoyu was raised by the women in the harem, surrounded by women all day long, and was spoiled too much, so he became weak in character, had no masculinity, and was neither good at literature nor martial arts.

"He is the heir of the Rong country, but he doesn't know how to serve the country and share the worries of the emperor. Instead, he hates the imperial examination and menial affairs the most. He calls those who pursue official careers and economics 'parasites'. He is really the most useless person in the Duke's Mansion, a parasite."

Lin Ruhai, who was sitting in the upper seat, was stunned when he heard this. It seemed that Jia Wei didn't like Baoyu very much.

But Jia Wei was not only an important official in the court, but also the head of the Jia family. There was no need for him to discredit a fellow clan member.

It seems that this precious jade is really not presentable...

Lin Ruhai originally thought that although Baoyu was not ambitious, he was well-behaved and came from a wealthy family. He did not expect him to be so terrible.

Seeing Jia Wei in front of him, he thought that Jia Wei had risen to fame from Nanjing to the capital, and that he had a strong character, so he was also respectful to him.

It's a pity that Jia Wei is already married...

Lin Ruhai couldn't help but shake his head and sighed.

Suddenly, Jia Wei said, "My uncle mentioned Sister Lin's marriage. I have a good candidate..."

Lin Ruhai asked happily, "Which family's disciple is this? Wenhe, please tell us quickly."

Who else could it be? Of course it's me.

Jia Wei did not hesitate, waved his robe and knelt on one knee.

Lin Ruhai was shocked and said, "Wenhe, what are you doing..."

"I, your little nephew, boldly beg you to marry Miss Lin to me. I will definitely protect Miss Lin and will not let her suffer any injustice."

Lin Ruhai's face was filled with astonishment. He slowly stood up and said in a deep voice, "If I hadn't treated you as my own nephew, I would have had you kicked out of the house just now!"

Lin Ruhai turned his back and said, "Although my Lin family is not as prominent as yours, there is no reason for us to let our daughter become a concubine!"

Uh……

Jia Wei looked a little embarrassed. He hated the fact that society was so isolated from the outside world that Lin Ruhai didn't even know that he had a concubine.

It makes sense. Not many members of the Jia family knew about his inheritance from two branches, and Lin Ruhai was far away in Yangzhou, so he had no way of knowing.

As a girl in the boudoir, it was impossible for Daiyu to tell her old father that her second brother wanted to take another wife and have a position as the main wife.

Otherwise, once she said this, her thoughts would be exposed. Wouldn't it be obvious that she was telling Lin Ruhai that she and Jia Wei had an affair...

"Uncle misunderstood..."

"Humph! What's the misunderstanding? Are you going to divorce your new bride and marry your sister Lin? My Lin family will not be the evil one!"

"My nephew is not the kind of person who will abandon you after having sex with you..."

Jia Wei said quickly, "Brother Zhen was implicated in a conspiracy case and died, and Jia Rong also died in exile. I couldn't bear to see Brother Zhen's family line die out, so I will inherit both branches, and the Ministry of Rites has approved it."

When Lin Ruhai heard this, he was surprised and delighted, and quickly turned to look at Jia Wei.

"When I marry Miss Lin, of course I will follow the three letters and six ceremonies, and marry her in a formal way. I will never let her down in any way."

Lin Ruhai quickly bent down and helped Jia Wei up with both hands.

"Nephew, please get up quickly. I am old and stupid, and I have wronged you!"

"I didn't explain it clearly beforehand, so my uncle misunderstood."

Jia Wei stood up and thought that Lin Ruhai's expression changed very quickly...

The two sat down again. Lin Ruhai's hands were shaking as he held the tea bowl. He felt both happy and excited.

He turned his head to look, Jia Wei was sitting upright with his hands hanging down, neither humble nor overbearing, and was humble and polite. Looking again, Jia Wei was eight feet tall, with red lips and white teeth, and a face as beautiful as a jade. Even if Lin Ruhai looked at him with the most critical eyes, he could only say, what a noble young man!
Jia Wei's nobility lies not only in his birth and temperament, but also in his status and position.

For thousands of years, countless heroes and great men have spent their entire lives without being able to be granted a title of nobility or become a prime minister. However, Jia Wei was granted a title of first-class marquis at the young age of twenty. Considering the current situation in the world, his future is limitless.

Lin Ruhai was not greedy for power, but these could provide a strong guarantee for his Yu'er's second half of her life.

Jia Wei has another great advantage that he cannot explain, which is that his parents died early...

Otherwise, given Daiyu's physical condition, it would be a great torture for her to go to her mother-in-law's morning and evening visits and follow the rules every day.

There are no elders in the Marquis' Mansion now. If Daiyu marries in, her situation will be much better.

Lin Ruhai stroked his beard, thought for a moment and asked, "Wenhe, does your wife know about this?"

As for Baochai, Lin Ruhai had only heard a few words from Daiyu, who admired her highly.

Moreover, he thought that Xue came from an ordinary family, but was favored by Jia Wei, so she must be very talented and virtuous.

If she dislikes Daiyu after she gets married, it will be a big trouble.

Jia Wei smiled and said, "Don't worry, uncle. They used to live together in Rongguo Mansion. They are all innocent and kind girls. They often play together and have a very good relationship. Besides, I can still make the decision on the affairs of the mansion. I will definitely not favor anyone or wrong anyone."

After hearing this, Lin Ruhai nodded slowly.

He also had several concubines and knew that matters in the harem were all about balance.

If Jia Wei always favors Daiyu, it may cause others to be jealous, which is not necessarily a good thing. As long as Daiyu is not wronged, it will be fine.

Lin Ruhai fell into deep thought again, and the room fell into silence again. Jia Wei was not impatient and waited quietly.

Lin Ruhai recalled the past, remembering the scene when Jia Wei escorted Daiyu back last year, and the expression on Daiyu's face when she mentioned Jia Wei when she came back this year...

Lin Ruhai thought that Jia Wei was undoubtedly a good son-in-law, and Daiyu also had a good impression of him, so he no longer hesitated.

He said slowly: "Wenhe, I will hand Yu'er over to you. I just hope you will not forget what I said today."

Jia Wei breathed a sigh of relief for some reason and quickly stood up and saluted.

"Please rest assured, uncle. I will definitely treat Sister Lin well."

Lin Ruhai nodded, thinking that he was old and had to shoulder the salt business, and he was afraid that he might not have much time left...

If he died, Daiyu would have to observe mourning for three years before she could get married.

His only concern now is Daiyu. He is afraid that something might happen over time, so he decides to get things done as soon as possible while he is still alive.

Being able to see Daiyu get married also fulfilled his long-cherished wish...

"Wenhe, go pick up Yu'er." Lin Ruhai said, "We'll find a good date later and send the adoption gift and her birth date."

Jia Wei had been eager to marry Daiyu home and have her eat his fill, so he was overjoyed to hear this and quickly agreed.

Then he bid farewell to Lin Ruhai and came to Daiyu's room with brisk steps.

Daiyu had already dressed up and was chatting with Zijuan and Xueyan. When she saw him, her eyes were full of smiles.

Two maids came into the room to clean up, and Jia Wei hugged Daiyu.

"Ah! What's wrong with you?" Daiyu said coquettishly.

"Sister Lin, I miss you so much." Jia Wei laughed.

He did not tell Lin Ruhai the result of his conversation just now, otherwise Daiyu would be shy and would definitely not go out with him to play today...
