Chapter 106: A family member commits treason?
“If you can’t read, you need enlightenment.”
“If you don’t understand the meaning, you need to read more. If you read a book a hundred times, its meaning will become clear.”
"Since ancient times, there have only been number one apprentices, but no number one masters."
"the student surpasses the master."
The more Lin Ruhai talked, the more confused Master Yi became.
It's over! This is all crooked and evil, right?
It all sounds like truth, but why does it seem so unreliable?
I have a feeling that if I continue to study like this, the only thing I’ll be left with is the ability to count to one, two, three, four.
Master Yi, with a look of dissatisfaction on his face, followed Lin Ruhai to eat like a log.
……
"Did you go to Zuixianlou today?" Lin Ruhai said in surprise, looking at the food in front of him.
"Yes, father." Yong'an said while gesticulating and recounting everything that happened in Zuixianlou today.
After listening carefully, Lin Ruhai couldn't help but burst out laughing. This kid, the Prince of Nannan, was becoming more and more outrageous. The bolder he became, the more frightening he became.
He wants to have a hand in everything and can have a hand in everything.
This is probably what he meant by buying a small stake?
So he can hold a lot of money in his hands now?
Why does he need to spend so much money?
Could it be? The more Lin Ruhai thought about it, the more frightened he became.
However, there are some puzzling things.
"I heard that the Nan'an Army is now unloved by their fathers and mothers, and is truly a beggar army."
"What's the mystery here?"
In a situation full of dangers, this kid is doing well.
Young Master Yi was also shocked when he heard this. He thought that by beating someone up, he could occupy the private room.
Is this also a truth worthy of praise?
He immediately thought of a word: bullying men and women.
He thought as he stuffed his mouth full of food.
Why does this family look so proud? There is a word called "feeling proud".
These words! I have to remember them and recite them silently every day, otherwise, if I come to Lin Mansion, I will probably return all these words to the teacher!
Young Master Sanyi, who thought he was very talkative and humorous, was unable to get a word in.
He is having trouble distinguishing right from wrong now.
He also looked at Lin Daiyu's clothes, which were unisex.
I sighed, afraid that one day I won’t be able to tell the difference between beauty and ugliness!
After finishing the most depressing meal, Master Yi returned to his guest room with a lot of questions in his mind.
Seeing that Manager Jin was also there, he couldn't help himself and told Manager Jin what he had seen and heard at the Lin Mansion.
Manager Jin was adding charcoal to the stove. After hearing what Master Yi said, he stopped what he was doing.
"Master! Are you not lying?"
"You're not lying to avoid studying, are you?"
Master Yi raised his hands and swore to the heavens, "I am going to cheat people. Let me be dried up by the sun."
Manager Jin racked his brains but still had no idea what was going on. He could only say to Master Yi, "Then let's leave early tomorrow and go back quickly to report to the clan leader."
"This family is the root of all trouble. This is extremely treasonous!"
"There is a bastard son who bullies men and women, a head of the family who offends people everywhere, a jealous mistress, and a daughter who is restless."
"That youngest son may have some unseen bad qualities."
"Let's go back and see what the clan leader decides?"
"I think the most likely scenario is that he will be expelled from the Lin family?"
But the manager thought it was impossible, because they were originally a branch of the Lin family and had to be attached to the family by force.
The clan leader became rich by sticking close to the Marquis's family, that is, Lin Ruhai's father.
Is he going to expel himself from the Lin family now?
Forget it! It's too much of a hassle. Let's go and let the clan leader worry about it!
The next morning, just after daybreak, Master Sanyi and his steward said goodbye and left in a hurry.
He ran so fast that he even forgot to take away the New Year gifts that Jia Min had asked people to prepare.
Jia Min looked at the New Year gifts in the yard and wondered, this Sanyi is really unreliable, he came rashly and ran away in a hurry.
He is forgetful and unruly.
Rong Mama frowned and asked, "Madam, do we still need to send it to them?"
Jia Min said angrily, "What are you sending? We never had such a custom before. We have to send gifts to each other in the clan. I don't know why the clan leader would think of this this year."
"And now we are sending someone to deliver it. If we can't meet them halfway, we have to send it all the way to Suzhou."
"Whoever we send will not be able to come back in time for the New Year."
"No need to send it! If they realize they forgot it, they will come back to get it. If they don't, then they don't want it."
"We're having a good year this year. We'll have plenty to eat."
Madam Rong knew that Jia Min would get angry whenever it came to matters concerning the patriarch's family.
……
It’s Chinese New Year!
On New Year’s Eve, there are sounds of firecrackers outside and the house is full of warmth.
Even the Prince of Nan'an brought a few dishes from Zuixianlou and came in a strange way.
He told Wei Wu, "It's not that I want to go, but they keep asking me to go, and I can't refuse."
"Going is to give them face."
Wei Wu laughed at him and said, "Don't say you can't refuse. The imperial edict can refuse anything you want to refuse."
"If the Lin family hadn't invited you, you would have plucked out all of Haotian's hair."
……
At the banquet, when everyone was halfway through eating, Aunt Rong handed over three plates.
It contains fruits, cakes, and hundreds of coins strung together with colored threads. It is called the New Year's Eve plate.
Jia Min picked up a plate, looked at the three children, and handed it to the Prince of Nan'an first.
"Here you go, you are one year older, may you be safe and live a long life!"
After hearing Jia Min's words, the Prince of Nan'an's expression froze.
I thought, how can I take this? Do they think I'm a three-year-old? Should I get angry and leave?
But my hand took it uncontrollably.
Forget it, it’s New Year’s Day, it’s not good to have a falling out, so I’ll give you some face.
This is because I am generous, not because I am still a child.
Jia Min took two more and handed one to Daiyu and Yongan respectively.
"I'm getting a year older now, I can't be naughty anymore."
"May you be safe and live a long life!"
Lin Daiyu held the New Year's money in both hands and prayed silently to God.
May all the family live a long and healthy life.
The Prince of Nan'an squeezed the string of copper coins hard in his hands, as if he could crush any evil spirit into pieces.
Yong'an happily put it around his neck and deliberately shook it back and forth, making "bang bang bang" and "bang bang bang" sounds to hear.
Jia Min looked at her three children with relief. Finally, a peaceful year had passed.
"Madame Rong, you have been busy for a year. Give everyone the money in the basket."
"Don't stay here, take the maids and old women with you and have some fun."
"If you don't go, I'll take care of them and the banquet won't start." Jia Min saw Banxia peeked in and lifted the curtain to look several times.
I know this is a reminder.
Rong Mama angrily scolded, "These little rascals, no one is keeping them in check, they are becoming even more unruly."
After saying this, Rong Mama walked out in a heroic and proud manner.
At midnight, the new year arrived and fireworks were bright outside the window.
The courtyard and outside are hung with lanterns of various colors, shining brightly.
Tonight, Yangzhou is a city that never sleeps.
The family in the house, including the children, were a little sleepy, but the sound of firecrackers perked them up.
Even the parrot hanging on the wall might have been disturbed by the sound of firecrackers while resting.
It was turning around on the shelf, unwilling to be lonely.
It seems that you won't sleep unless you perform a show.
It stretched its head and drank some water from the sink to moisten its throat.
He turned his head towards everyone in the room, his eyes rolled,
A nanny's voice suddenly sounded, and the Prince of Nan'an was startled in shock.
"Princess, the rumors about the Crown Prince marrying his wife are spreading more and more outside. It is said that before the seal was sealed at the end of the year, His Majesty mentioned it to the people around him again."
