The road back (8)

When the news came, Lin Yutong sighed, thought for a while, and decided to go over and take a look at Daiyu.

As expected, Daiyu's eye circles were already red: "... I have never known such a thing. Thinking that my eldest sister and brother are like me, living alone all these years and I don't know where to raise them..." As she said that, her eye circles turned red again.

.She firmly believed what her father said.

Many simple-minded people in the Jia family said: "It's strange to say that when Miss Lin first came here, she was a beauty lamp, but it broke when the wind blew. Now she looks healthy. It shows that what the expert said is true.

."

Someone else echoed: "It is not good for the heirs to have a single inheritance for several generations of the Lin family. Now look at it, at least there is a son and two daughters. This is a great joy."

Mother Jia took the letter and didn't say anything for a long time. Naturally she knew the evil behind it. But since her son-in-law had made it right, so be it.

Wang Xifeng looked at Jia Mu carefully. Seeing that Jia Mu's expression softened, she said, "It's because I am young and ignorant. There is no news about such a big thing."

Jia's mother laughed: "You have only been here a few years, what do you know? Your aunt wrote a letter earlier and said something vague, but she didn't think about it at all. It's also your aunt who can't let go of Daiyu, and can't let go of that brother.

If the son was brought to us right after he was born, then... they wouldn't say anything. If I had known, I would have brought the child no matter what."

It means that Daiyu was sent here before she was born, and that Jia Min was reluctant to send out the brothers who died in the Lin family, so one was sick and the other died.

Wang Xifeng's eyes turned red: "It's no wonder aunt... If the eldest sister is taken away from me, it will definitely kill me alive. Now that I'm a mother, I know what it's like."

Jia Mu wiped her tears: "Who said it wasn't?" She sighed and added: "In this case, Daiyu can't even be asked to take her back. It's pitiful that she is only a little older, but she has been raised better now.

Just stay at home and take her back when she's older. I'll talk to my son-in-law about this!"

When Lin Yutong heard the news, he wondered what Lin Ruhai had in mind when he came up with this excuse.

The two siblings are separated from Daiyu by one layer, and there is a living aunt in them. Gratitude, resentment, right and wrong, more or less, will be instilled in the children. Even if there are no other people around,

But these three girls have gone through so much, and they can be regarded as dependent on each other until now. Now that they have taken them home, what will they do to Daiyu when they come back? It is difficult to get close, and being polite is the best result. But

Such politeness was the worst thing. For Daiyu, going home was like being a guest. She couldn't enter the circle of three people. Being alone made her even more sad.

In addition, it is not very safe for Lin Ruhai to sit in that seat now. Therefore, there are no plans to take Daiyu back in the short term.

As for what will happen in the future, based on Lin Yutong's understanding of Lin Ruhai, he will definitely not put the focus of education on his son when he has treated his eldest daughter badly. Brother Yang has read the books of saints and sages, and it is not said that he is better than a woman.

, his situation will not be too small. He will not do anything with Daiyu just because of the past. This is enough. Having a brother in his mother's family is a layer of protection. As long as this brother understands the truth and understands

Reason. This is Daiyu's backing. People's feelings will change, from strong to weak, from weak to strong. This is the most and least stable thing. But the etiquette and rules have not changed. As long as you abide by the etiquette and rules,

If you follow the rules, you can't make any big mistakes.

As for Daiyu, even if she knows that the two children have returned home, she will not be sad here. She gave them to her not because her mother died but because her father didn't want them anymore, but because she really loved her and wanted her to be healthy and live a long life.

, just sent her out. Now, the people accompanying her are all members of the Lin family. It's not going well here, and I have the confidence to say that I won't stay at your house anymore. I want to go home.

This is really not relying on others.

When a person's state of mind changes, it is helpful for the development of temperament.

Daiyu felt sad for a moment, and then became excited again: "Sister Tong knows that, I always envy others to have brothers and sisters who are close to each other, but now I know that I have a sister and a brother. Compared with some

Man, I am much luckier..."

It means that compared with Baochai, she is much luckier.

After all, her own father is still in the official position. Although she has no mother, her grandmother loves her sincerely. There is also an eldest sister in the family to take care of her father's health, and an older brother will support the family in the future. Compared with Baochai who has no father to rely on,

My brother is like that again, I don’t know how much stronger he is.

Therefore, when the servants of the Jia family privately praised Baochai for his obedience, she didn't take it too seriously.

After talking about this for two or three days, Lin Yutong accidentally learned from Jia Mu that the names of the Lin family siblings were probably changed by Lin Ruhai when they were entered into the genealogy. The eldest daughter of the Lin family is called Lin Tongyu, and the eldest young master is called Lin Jinyu.

Jia's mother called Wang Xifeng: "The things for Sister Tong and Brother Jin are ready. Send them out." Then she stroked Daiyu and said, "If there is anything you want to take with you, just go find Girl Feng."

Daiyu had a special nun to teach her. She no longer dared to call Wang Xifeng Feng girl. She stood up and faced Wang Xifeng, which was a blessing to her: "Second sister-in-law is busy with the affairs of such a big family, so she still has to worry about me.

"

"Ouch!" Wang Xifeng immediately helped her up and said to Jia's mother: "Look! Look! After a few years of raising her in front of our ancestors, she has become completely different."

Daiyu accepted everything well. As for what will happen when we meet in the future, that is a matter for the future.

Lin Yutong is currently busy with the grafted roses, which bloom in full swing from April to May.

They placed the flower pots in the open space outside. Looking from a distance, it looked like a rainbow had fallen on Liuyunwu.

This rose only lacked a blue color. I searched for all the green ones, but couldn't find the blue one. Finally, I used a white one instead. There are seven colors in one rose, but it's not just like rainbows.

The layout is really nice.

He invited Jia Mu and the female relatives of the house to come.

Aunt Xue seemed to be curious about something: "I wonder how this girl could have thought of making such a living. Look, it's much prettier than those expensive colors."

Lin Yutong laughed: "I am also a rough person. I don't understand how people enjoy flowers. I just look at the excitement and think it is good if they bloom for a long time. This thing is very wild. In winter, it is placed indoors

Isn't it great that the flowers are blooming all year round?"

Mother Jia loved to hear Chang Sheng Bubai's words, and even more loved things that were evergreen all year round, so she told Aunt Xue: "The words are children's words, but they are true and true. Enjoy them, enjoy them, regardless of high or low.

If you can reward it, just play."

Aunt Xue nodded and said yes.

Tables and counters were set up outside, and the family members were enjoying the flowers here. Shao Hua asked people to quickly set up a banquet and serve wine. It was a lively day here.

Everyone left, but Wang Xifeng stayed and discussed with Lin Yutong, "We are not outsiders, and I won't go around here with you." She pointed outside: "Sister, are you willing to give up your love?"

Lin Yutong laughed: "My sister-in-law likes it, just ask someone to move it over tomorrow. What's the point?"

Wang Xifeng patted Lin Yutong and said, "I'm not going to hide it from you, this is May Day, isn't it? The gift to the prince's palace makes me worried to death. Going by the pattern of previous years, I always feel that there is a little less thought. But.

If you want to buy rare things, you said that in the prince's palace, the ladies have never seen anything rare, so they went over to chat with each other for nothing. But I looked at these things that my sister made, which is actually a bit interesting. It's not as good as just leaving them alone.

You can enjoy plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums. But if there are so many, ten or twenty pots are placed there, it is like a rainbow falling in the house, so that the nobles can look at it with joy, it is our good fortune."

This is what Lin Yutong is waiting for. As long as the nobles are after them, there is nothing that cannot be sold.

She was very generous: "So that's what it's for? Sister-in-law, just ask someone to bring them to you. Later, if you have other flowers for the occasion, ask someone to bring them to me in advance, and I will help sister-in-law sort them..."

"Then how can I thank my sister?" Wang Xifeng said and smiled: "Yes! I'll give my sister some good makeup and some good things tomorrow..."

"I just treated you like a serious person, here we go again." Lin Yutong pushed her away: "Hurry up and arrange for someone to go, so I don't have to ask someone to move it again. This thing is easy to take care of. Water it every few days.

That’s fine, it doesn’t matter. I know you’re busy, so hurry up and go about your business.”

A few days later, news came that King Beijing had sent twenty of the thirty pots given to him to the palace. The nobles in the palace looked at them and agreed, and even asked someone to reward Beijing specially.

King Beijing knew that he was from the Jia family, so he sent generous gifts to the Jia family.

Since the palace has already agreed, it must be excellent.

Jia Sheng, Jia Zheng and Jia Zhen all said they wanted to hold a flower appreciation party and asked for some pots to be sent.

Wang Xifeng took away a hundred pots that day, all of which were of excellent quality. Now there are more than eighty pots left. The three people and Jia Mu each gave 20 pots. The remaining pots were left by Lin Yutong.

Keep the ones for mother plants and the ones for your own play.

These are the only ones that can be sold for money.

Grafting of flowers has been around for a long time. But most of them choose peonies, plum blossoms and chrysanthemums that are highly ornamental. Few people like Lin Yutong do not pay attention to varieties, only choose colors and flowering periods. And they can make the shapes so rich.

Ornamental.

At first glance, it looks fresh. But if the freshness is over, any gardener can do it better than Lin Yutong.

There were only a few pots left at home, but Yu Liang rented someone else's yard, where there were many such flowers. He hired a gardener to make them, and the place was in Tongzhou.

If the palace praises it, this thing will become priceless.

Yu Liang didn't sell in the capital either. He only contacted buyers in the south and went down the canal to Suzhou and Hangzhou. From this one transaction, he made more than eight thousand taels.

This thing, whether it was earlier or later, would not be sold at this price.

"Earlier, the prices haven't gone up. Later, the second crop has begun to bloom. Just this mid-point, make this quick money..." Yu Liang was in a good mood, with this money to lay the foundation,

You have the capital to do anything.

He went to discuss with Fourth Master again and wanted to buy two Zhuangzi. One was for his own use and the other was for Lin Yutong's dowry.

The fields on the edge of the capital are in short supply. What is available is mountainous land.

In the end, the hillock next to the one bought by the Fourth Master was facing inward in the mountains. The two hills next to each other and the valley in the middle were about dozens of acres of wasteland. They were bought together. If you want to buy this, you have to call Jia Lian.

Or Jia Zhen is talking to the Yamen.

It went very smoothly, and it was purchased with a few hundred taels of silver.

Like Fourth Master, the Yu family planted trees and raised some chickens, ducks and geese under the trees. They also thought about the taste of the sherbet wine made by their sister. They knew that if this became successful, it would actually be more profitable than growing crops.

Much more.

As for the house, I bought a two-entry house in the east alley of Ningrong Street. It is surrounded by Jia family members, so it couldn’t be more suitable. It is also close to the fourth master’s place. Just turn a corner after exiting the alley.

.Easy to take care of.

Yu Liang didn't say anything, and ordered furniture and other items for the house where he was going to marry. Everyone who knew about it said that the Yu family looked poor, but in fact they were well-off.
