The Red Chamber: The Rise of the Lin Mansion

Seeing what he said, Lin Yun stretched out his hand to take the purse, "Okay, I'll take the money, and if you need money in the future, come to me again."

"Thank you, young nephew."

Lin Yun collected the money and the two of them continued walking into the yard.

Seeing Yang Yuan suffering from pain while walking, Lin Yun asked with concern: "Is your injury okay?"

Yang Yuan: "It's okay. I asked Doctor Guo for the wound medicine yesterday, and it will recover in a few days."

"Oh, how much money did he charge you this time?"

"No money. He said that I was beaten for you this time, so he won't take my money."

"Not bad. By the way, how is Miss Cherry doing now?"

Yang Yuan said happily: "My sister's fever has subsided, but she still has a little cough."

After a pause, Yang Yuan said guiltily again: "Master nephew, I didn't know that my sister had cough symptoms before, so I didn't mean to lie to you."

Lin Yun: "I know, Miss Cherry is afraid of being sent away, so she refrained from coughing. It's really embarrassing for her."

"Thank you for your understanding."

Lin Yun raised his hand and patted Yang Yuan's shoulder and said, "Take good care of your wounds, and when your aunt recovers from her illness, you can go out with me to do things."

Yang Yuan said excitedly: "Okay."

...

Just as Lin Yun returned to his residence, as soon as he entered the door, he saw the old butler sitting in the living room waiting for him.

Seeing Lin Yun coming in from the outside, the old housekeeper quickly stood up and said with a smile, "Brother Yun, are you going out to practice martial arts so early?"

Lin Yun asked curiously: "Fu Bo, are you waiting for me?"

"Exactly."

After Lin Yunluo sat down, the old housekeeper came over and asked, "Brother Yun, I heard that your perfume can sell for 50 taels of silver a bottle?"

Lin Yun: "It's not a bottle, it's a box of 50 taels, and there are five bottles in a box."

The old housekeeper: "That's terrible! It's so expensive, are you sure someone will buy it?"

"Uncle Fu, just tell me directly. What do you want to do?"

The old housekeeper smiled shyly and said, "My naughty son can't study well, so he helps run a pawn shop outside the house. I heard Liu Mama said that you are short of manpower, so I wondered if I could let him work with you?"

Lin Yun: "What's his name? How old is he?"

"My boy's name is Lin Yan. He will be eighteen after the Chinese New Year."

"Okay, let him come over and help me with things. As long as he's not stupid, it's fine to be a steward."

The old housekeeper said happily, "Thank you!"

Lin Yun suddenly remembered, and said, "Uncle Fu, are the mountains behind this courtyard and the surrounding fields all owned by the mansion?"

"Most of them are. Only a few dozen acres of fertile land in the west belong to the Dong family."

"What's the background of that Dong family?"

Lin Fu lowered his voice and said, "The Dong family is one of the four major salt merchants in Yangzhou. I heard that their family's backer seems to be the Prince of Beijing."

Lin Yun's heart moved when he heard this, and he quickly asked: "Is it the Prince of Beijing who is the leader of the four princes and eight princes?"

The old housekeeper said in surprise: "Brother Yun, do you also know this King of Beijing?"

"Slightly heard."

The old housekeeper said mysteriously: "Let me tell you a secret. Princess Beijing is the second daughter of the Zhen family in Jinling. She and our wife are friends. If you want to rent the Dong family's land to plant flowers and grass, you can ask your wife to come forward. Say hello to the Dong family and this will definitely happen."

Lin Yun was secretly surprised when he heard the words, "Princess Bei Jing is actually the second daughter of the Zhen family, and she has a good relationship with Jia Min, so did he hug the wrong thigh?"

When the old housekeeper saw that Lin Yun had been stunned and silent, he thought he was surprised by the news he said.

"Brother Yun, Brother Yun."

After Lin Yun was woken up by the old housekeeper, he quickly shook his head and said, "It's not worth asking my aunt to help with some trivial matters."

"That's true. After all, you are not from the Beijing Prince's Mansion. It is indeed wrong for the wife to come forward."

Lin Yun thought for a while and then asked the old housekeeper: "Uncle Fu, do you know the situation of these two Huai salt merchants?"

The old housekeeper took a sip of tea and said with a smile on his face: "You have asked the right person. There are four largest salt merchants in Lianghuai, namely the Zhen family, the Dong family, the Bai family, and the Jiang family. Among them, The Jiang family has been confiscated by the government a few years ago, and now there are only three families left: Zhen, Dong, and Bai."

Lin Yun hurriedly said: "I know the Zhen family, what's the situation with the Bai family?"

Old housekeeper: "The head of the Bai family is called Bai Yuan. He once served as the censor of Zuodu in the previous dynasty. Now he is an official at home and lives in seclusion. He is very mysterious."

Lin Yun lowered his voice and asked, "Uncle Fu, do you know who is behind the Bai family?"

The old butler shook his head and said, "I don't know, this Bai family is very mysterious, and there is very little news about their family outside."

Lin Yun then asked: "Then why the Jiang family was confiscated, do you always know?"

The old butler hesitated for a moment, then picked up the tea cup, poured a few drops of water on the table, and then dipped his finger in the water and wrote a few words.

Lin Yun took a closer look, and it turned out that it was the word Yizhong Old Prince.

After waiting for Lin Yun to read it, the old butler raised his hand to erase the words, and then reminded Lin Yun, "Brother Yun, don't say anything about this to the outside world, so as not to cause trouble."

Lin Yun quickly nodded and said, "Understood."

Chapter 13: Crisis

After breakfast, Lin Yun made an appointment with Dr. Guo to go to the backyard to check on Jia Min's condition.Before the two left, they saw Lin Ruhai running over in a hurry and asked them about Jia Min's situation.

When Lin Yun saw him, he secretly sighed, Lin Ruhai is such a good husband. He left late yesterday and came here early this morning.

Hearing that they hadn't visited Jia Min's condition yet, Lin Ruhai went with them.

As soon as the three of them walked to the backyard, they saw Madam Liu greet them with a happy face.

Lin Yun stepped forward and jokingly said, "Nurse, seeing your smile all over your face, I guess my aunt slept soundly last night, right?"

Nanny Liu smiled and said: "That's right, Madam used to have trouble falling asleep all night, but she only woke up once last night, and she still got up to take medicine."

Lin Ruhai said happily, "Wanniang, so the medicine really worked?"

Nanny Liu nodded again and again, "It works, that medicine is really useful."

Doctor Guo said in disbelief, "Is that medicine really so miraculous?"

Nanny Liu: "Old genius doctor, go in and feel the pulse for your wife, you will know."

Divine Doctor Guo said hurriedly: "Let's go, I have to see it with my own eyes before I can be convinced."

"Old miraculous doctor please."

Just as Lin Ruhai wanted to follow him in, Mother Liu stopped him and said, "Master, you can't go in."

Lin Ruhai said dissatisfiedly: "Didn't you say that the medicine is effective?"

"Just in case, wait for your wife to recover from her illness, and then you can meet her again."

Lin Ruhai: "Wanniang, I have something urgent to discuss with my wife, so please accommodate me."

Grandma Liu: "Master, it's not that slaves make things difficult for you, it's really~"

Lin Yun suggested from the side: "Uncle, why don't you wait outside for a while, let the old genius doctor go in and take the pulse of my aunt first, and see the result before making a decision?"

Lin Ruhai said helplessly: "Okay."

...

Lin Yun walked into the bedroom with Doctor Guo and Nanny Liu, and saw that the veil was still hanging down on the couch.

However, the face of the little maid standing by was full of joy, and she couldn't hide it even if she wanted to.

Jia Min said softly behind the veil: "My concubine pays respects to the old genius doctor."

Doctor Guo: "Ma'am, there is no need to be too polite. I heard that you slept soundly last night, but is it true?"

Jia Min: "I really slept soundly. When I slept before, I always felt like there was a heavy weight on my chest, making it difficult to fall asleep. Last night I felt a lot more relaxed, so I slept very peacefully."

"Oh, this is really strange, come on, the old man will take your pulse again."

"It's time to work. Pomegranate, let the old genius doctor take a seat."

"Yes, ma'am."

Shiliu brought a stool and asked Divine Doctor Guo to sit next to the couch.

Jia Min stretched out an arm from the veil and asked Dr. Guo to take her pulse.

The old man stroked his beard with his left hand, put the three fingers of his right hand on Jia Min's snow-white wrist, and closed his eyes slightly, as if in deep thought.

After about two or three minutes, Doctor Guo slowly withdrew his fingers, and said in his mouth, "It's really strange! Weird!"

Nanny Liu asked from the side: "Old genius doctor, how is the situation?"

Doctor Guo looked back at Lin Yun, and said with emotion: "Unexpectedly, there is really a good medicine for treating tuberculosis in this world. My wife is expected to recover!"

"Old miracle doctor, are you serious about this?"

Jia Min lifted the veil in surprise, and stared at Miracle Doctor Guo without blinking her beautiful eyes.

Although Lin Yun assured her again and again that this medicine could cure her lung disease, she was always dubious. It wasn't until last night that she felt that her breathing became much easier that she had a faint feeling that she was probably saved.

"Of course it's true."

Doctor Guo replied in dissatisfaction, then stood up again and said, "I need to go back and think about it, this matter is really too bizarre."

Mother Liu didn't wait for Jia Min's orders, she smiled happily and said, "Madam, I'll go see the old doctor."

After a pause, she remembered again and said, "Old genius doctor, can the master see his wife now?"
