Chapter 1: Here comes the thigh hugger

Great Chu, Zhide five years, winter.

It was cold and windy, and the weather was gloomy.

At [-]:[-] in the morning, in front of the Yangzhou Lianghuai patrolling salt censor's yamen, two guards on duty shrank their necks and hid beside the stone lions in the town's yamen, talking in a low voice.

When the two were chatting, they suddenly heard the sound of creaking ruts carried by the wind into their ears.

Looking up, I saw not far from the street, a spacious carriage was slowly approaching here.

When the carriage approached, the two guards stood up calmly.

An elderly guard stepped forward to stop him and said, "This is the Yamen of the Lianghuai Patrol Salt Censor, and idlers are not allowed to approach it."

The groom driving the carriage was a big bearded man with a sword hanging from his waist. Hearing what the guard said, the man stopped the carriage, jumped out of the carriage, rushed forward and shouted at the guard, "Bold, do you know who is sitting in the carriage? "

The two guards glanced at each other, but were stunned by the man's aura, not knowing how to respond.

At this moment, the door curtain of the carriage was lifted from the inside, and a handsome young man in a bright fur cloak, accompanied by a servant, came out of the carriage. The young man stopped the bearded man, "Zhong Yi, don't be rude."

"Yes, son."

The bearded man bowed in response, then turned around and took out a small horse from the shaft of the carriage and placed it on the ground for the young man and his entourage to step on and get out of the carriage.

After the boy came down, he took out a red card from his bosom, and smiled at the two guards, "I am the nephew of your Lord Lin, surnamed Lin and named Yun. I am here to visit my uncle on the order of my father. Take my greeting card and pass it on."

The older guard hurried forward, took the greeting card from the young man, and said with a smile: "It turns out that the young master is the younger generation of the adult, so please don't blame the villain for offending me."

"The officer is too polite."

"Sir, please wait a moment. The younger one will go in and pass the message for you."

"Thank you!"

...

After the guard left with the name card, the young man walked forward slowly, staring at the spacious yamen in front of him, feeling filled with emotion in his heart.

It has been several years since his soul traveled to this world, but he has never been able to figure out which dynasty this Great Chu Kingdom belongs to.

In order to live a more nourishing life in this world, he had to pick up books again, study the Four Books and Five Classics that he despised in his previous life, and strive to become a Jinshi and become a master.

It wasn't until this fall that his wealthy father suddenly told him that he had an uncle named Lin Ruhai, who was appointed by the emperor as the salt censor of the Lianghuai River and Huaihe River, and came to Yangzhou to take up the post, that he finally understood. This Great Chu Kingdom turned out to be the World of Red Mansions.

After inquiring from Daddy Cheap that Lin Ruhai did have a wife named Jia Min and a daughter named Lin Daiyu, Lin Yun secretly rejoiced in his heart. This nima has a ready-made thigh to hug. What kind of books does he still read? What Jinshi?

After Lin Yun made up his mind, he immediately threw away the book, asked his father to write a letter of recommendation, and came to ask for advice.

Just as Lin Yun was thinking, he saw a few people walking out of the yamen slowly. The leader was a middle-aged man in a gray fur jacket. He was slightly fat and had a round face.Small eyes, bulbous nose, looking very hot eyes.

Lin Yun thought to himself, "Isn't this Lin Ruhai? This appearance is too shabby."

The middle-aged man took a few glances at Lin Yun, saw that the clothes on his body were expensive, so he put away his contempt, walked up to Lin Yun quickly, and smiled at Lin Yun: "Brother Yun, it's really you, I thought it was you." The guard made a mistake."

"You are~"

The middle-aged man said in shock: "Brother Yun, why don't you remember me? I am Lin Fu, the master's housekeeper. That year, the master was named on the gold list. He took me back to his hometown to worship the ancestors, and stayed in your mansion for a few days. Day, we have met many times."

Lin Yun smiled and said: "I'm really sorry, I was young at that time, and I was too fond of playing."

The old housekeeper: "That's right, my brother was indeed young at that time, I didn't expect to grow so tall now."

"Uncle Fu, is Uncle in the mansion?"

"Yes. However, the master is receiving an important guest inside. He asked the old servant to accompany you to the back house to meet our girl."

After the old butler finished speaking, he pointed to a side door not far from the yamen, indicating that the carriage could enter the mansion from there.

Lin Yun thought to himself: "I didn't expect to see Sister Lin as soon as I entered the mansion. This is really good luck."

He turned back and shouted to the boy behind him: "Xiao Mo, go to the carriage and get the biggest package for me."

"Okay, third master."

The entourage named Xiao Mo quickly boarded the carriage, took out a cloth package from the carriage, and handed it back to Lin Yun.

Lin Yun took the package, reached out and took out two ingots of silver ingots, and handed them to the old housekeeper, "Fu Bo, it's a little trick, please accept it."

The old housekeeper was also not polite, took the silver ingot and put it into his arms nimbly, smiled and complimented: "Brother Yun is really promising! If you encounter trouble in the future, you can come to me."

"Thank you Faber."

Lin Yun thanked him, carried the package on his shoulders, and followed the old butler to the side door.

...

After several people entered the door, the old housekeeper ordered a servant to lead Lin Yun's two followers down to settle down, while he accompanied Lin Yun to the inner house.

The two walked along the bluestone path and passed through a moon arch. Lin Yun suddenly felt a bright light in front of him. When he looked up, he saw that the courtyard here was very spacious. There were stacks of rockeries in the courtyard, hidden among trees of various colors.

Not far away, I saw a small stream passing through the garden in front of me. There is a bridge on the stream. Standing on the bridge, you can see a large pond not far away, showing the garden characteristics of the south of the Yangtze River.

Walking west through the garden, there is another courtyard gate. A middle-aged woman is in charge of guarding the gate. After the old housekeeper explained his purpose, the woman let them in.

This small courtyard is not big, although there are flowers and trees inside, but there are no artificial mountains and flowing water.The courtyard was very quiet, only two women in Tsing Yi squatted in front of the flower garden and were busy, whether they were watering or hoeing.

Walking on the bluestone path, I met a little maid wearing a red jacket.

The old housekeeper stopped the other party and told him: "Xiaoling, go inside and inform the young lady that the nephew and young master from my hometown in Suzhou are here, and the master asked her to entertain guests."

"Ok."

The little girl responded, then turned around and ran back quickly.

Seeing this, Lin Yun slowed down, turned to the old housekeeper and asked, "Uncle Fu, is there any spice shop in Yangzhou in the mansion?"

Lin Fu asked in surprise: "Why do you ask this?"

Lin Yun: "My family's spice workshop has newly developed a perfume with high quality, which is most suitable for official ladies and wives. This time I came here, I just want to open a spice shop here in Yangzhou to sell perfume. If If there is such a shop in the mansion, we can run it as a partnership."

Lin Fu: "Why doesn't Uncle Heng (Lin Yun's father) come to discuss such a big matter in person with us?"

"My father got lung disease a month ago, and it was cured with great difficulty. Now~"

Before Lin Yun finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lin Fu in surprise, "Brother Yun, you mean that Uncle Heng had a lung disease not long ago? He was cured?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

"Do you know how it was cured? Which famous doctor was invited? What kind of medicine was used?"

Lin Fu asked several questions one after another, and before Lin Yun could answer, he said excitedly, "I suddenly remembered something, and I'm going to report it to the master."

After speaking, he waved to a maidservant who was busy in front of the flower garden, told her to lead Lin Yun to the inner house to meet the young lady, and then left in a hurry.

Looking at the leaving figure of the old housekeeper, Lin Yun thought to himself, "Could it be that Lin Ruhai's wife also got lung disease?"

When he was thinking about it, the maid who was walking in front of him turned around and reminded him: "Master nephew, do you have anything else to do?"

"fine."

Lin Yun responded, then quickened his pace and followed the woman forward.

...

Going around the promenade, turning west, and walking into a small courtyard, the area here is small, there are neither rockery and strange rocks, nor flowers and trees, only a few half-person-high peach blossom trees, and the leaves on them are already It's all gone.

Walking through a gravel path, I came to several abbots, and saw a girl's small head popping out of a door in the middle, glanced at this side, and quickly shrank back.

The woman walking beside Lin Yun introduced to him: "The one just now is the servant girl who served by Miss's side, named Xueyan."

Just as Lin Yun was about to ask, he heard a little girl's voice from inside the room, "Girl, the guest is here, do you want to go out and greet him?"

Immediately, another little girl's crisp voice came out, "Isn't it just a relative who came to beat Qiufeng, just give him a few taels of silver and send him away."

"Girl, let's meet. After all, the master ordered it. It's not good for you to hide."

"If I want to see you, I'll go and see you. Anyway, I won't see you. Besides, my father punished me to shut up and think about my mistakes. How can I see guests?"

"Girl~"

"Stop talking, Xueyan, go out and talk to the guests, just say that I am being punished by my father to shut up in the room and think about my mistakes, and it is not convenient to see him."

...

Lin Yun heard the conversation inside from the window, and couldn't help but secretly happy in his heart, "It's really embarrassing for me to be treated by Sister Lin as a poor relative who came to beat Qiufeng."

He was hesitating whether to enter the house, but he saw the door of a room on the left corner being pushed open from inside, and a middle-aged woman wearing a black sheepskin jacket walked out immediately.

The middle-aged woman walked over quickly, and asked the woman beside Lin Yun, "Sister-in-law Cai, is this the young nephew from Suzhou?"

Mrs. Cai hurriedly said, "Yes."

After a pause, she introduced the identity of the middle-aged woman to Lin Yun, "Master nephew, this is Nanny Wang, she is our girl's nanny."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yun quickly saluted Wang Mama, "Greetings to Wang Mama."

Wang Momo hurriedly dodged to avoid it, and then said with a smile all over her face: "Don't do this, my nephew and young master, I don't dare to be an old lady."

Immediately, she said to Cai's woman: "Sister-in-law Cai, leave it to me, master nephew, you can go about your business."

"Ok."

...

Chapter 2: The Grounded Sister Lin

After sending Sister-in-law Cai away, Wang Momo led Lin Yun to Daiyu's room.

As soon as the two of them came to the door, they saw the door curtain being pulled open from the inside. A young maidservant about seven or eight years old smiled and saluted, "Mother Wang is here! Please come in quickly."
