Miaoyu: "Let this girl talk nonsense, but some of her clothes are a bit torn. I know this girl is good at craftsmanship, so let her borrow it. I also know that she likes reading recently, so we can communicate more!"
Lin Daiyu then smiled and said: "I see, but Qingwen is really blessed to have you as her teacher. I often see your name, Miaoyu, on the booklet."
Miaoyu: "It seems that there are more ladies' names on the booklet, don't you think so, Zijuan!"
Zijuan smiled and said, "That's a book in Library No. 2. My girl must have read half of it!"
Qingwen heard Zijuan say: "So much. I knew that Miss Lin was very good at reading, but I didn't expect to be so good."
Zijuan: "That's my girl studying. She has always been able to read ten lines at a glance!"
Qingwen: "What about Master Bixie?"
Zijuan: "This..."
Miaoyu: "Qingwen, your mouth..."
Lin Daiyu: "Of course I can't compare with him. You don't know, that man often says he is a fool, but why do I just pretend when I look at him!"
After Lin Daiyu finished speaking, the scene fell silent for a moment.
Soon, Qingwen said: "Master Miaoyu, I remembered Miss Lin. I still have something to do at my girls' school, so I will leave now."
Miaoyu: "Go back now. I'll come back and ask you about needlework!"
Soon Qingwen left, and Lin Daiyu didn't say anything, just watched.
After Zijuan, Lin Daiyu, and Miaoyu were left, Miaoyu said first: "Madam, I want to pay my respects!"
Lin Daiyu nodded and said, "Since I'm here, I naturally want to worship!" "
Then, Lin Daiyu went to the Xie Family Ancestral Hall in the left wing to pay her respects as usual. However, the Xie Family Ancestral Hall now only has two memorial tablets, and even with two impression paintings by Xie Yu hanging on the wall, it seemed a bit empty.
But when she saw the memorial tablets of Xie Yu's father, Xie Ergouzi, and mother, Xie Yu, Lin Daiyu had no funny impulse. Instead, she felt a lot of emotion in her heart.
Lin Daiyu thought of what her grandmother, the old lady, who had a bright mirror in her heart, once advised her, as if she was right in front of her eyes.
My grandmother once said that it was appropriate to marry into a family with no parents-in-law based on my temperament.
Daughters-in-law of ancient official families had many rules. Take the usual morning and dusk routines as an example. In addition to saying hello in the morning and evening and standing in a correct manner, they also had to wait for their mother-in-law to finish eating before they could eat by themselves.
How could he bear it with his congenitally weak body, but a person like Xie Yu, who has weak legs and has no high-level education, generally does not have such stinky rules.
After experiencing the confiscation of Jia's house and organizing the funeral for her grandmother in the past few months, Lin Daiyu felt that she had matured a lot, and she also immediately understood what the many secular affairs that she had despised at the beginning represented.
In Xie Yu's words, Lin Daiyu moved from fantasy to reality and matured mentally.
After being dazed for a while, I came to the Lin family's memorial tablet in the right wing. Naturally, there were many more tablets here than Xie Yu's. They were all seen by Lin Daiyu when she was a child and had her demerits recorded.
Of course, the main ones are Lin Ruhai, Jia Min and Na Zaoyao's younger brother.
After secretly saying something from his heart, Lin touched his natural tears again!
I can’t help feeling that my body is getting better, and my eyes are getting better, and they are better than in previous years.
I am really grateful to Xie Yulin Daiyu.
After that, after adjusting her mood, Lin Daiyu asked Zijuan to go ahead and sipped two sips of tea at Miaoyu's side.
Suddenly Miaoyu spoke, "I think it's appropriate now!"
Lin Daiyu: "Miaoyu, what do you mean by this?"
Miaoyu: "Madam, don't you want to know why I followed madam to stay in Xie Mansion?"
Lin Daiyu: "So that's what I said. Hey, let's put it this way..."
"So, Miao Corn has long known about the Grand View Garden..."
Miaoyu: "I am an outsider, how could I know that such a big thing would happen!"
"Speaking of which, my master who passed away was the abbot of the Monastery. She was a wise man. I followed her since I was a child. She was very good at performing innate divine numbers, so before she passed away, I also made predictions."
Lin Daiyu: "Divination? What's the result?"
Miaoyu: "My master made predictions for me and told me that there will be a great disaster in the future, which is extremely difficult to avoid."
Lin Daiyu was extremely smart, so she said: "In this case, it was the work of Cuicui'an in the Grand View Garden..."
Miaoyu: "It is indeed my master's handiwork. I originally planned to return to my hometown, but then I listened to my master's words and temporarily lived in the Jia Mansion Grand View Garden Cuicui'an."
Lin Daiyu: "Then..."
Miaoyu: "Later I wanted to follow my wife to Xie's Mansion. Based on the master's instructions, I found that it was actually confirmed to my husband."
"After that, I met your distinguished husband. Although my innate divine calculation is not commendable, I immediately understood that if I want to avoid the catastrophe, I must take refuge in your distinguished husband. He is my noble man."
"But please rest assured, madam, I am an outsider and have no other thoughts."
Lin Daiyu: "Even if you have other thoughts..., hey, other thoughts..."
Then, Lin Daiyu stared at Miaoyu for a while, and then said: "Isn't he my nobleman?"
Miaoyu took a sip of tea and sighed: "Your husband is really a strange person!"
Lin Daiyu: "A strange person?... He is indeed strange."
In fact, after being together for so long, Lin Daiyu, a smart person, can naturally feel some of the mystery in Xie Yu.
Call me smart, but he couldn't guess many of the little riddles I asked him.
Call it silly, he understands a lot of things.
Call him reckless, but he also understands many things about noble families.
It's indeed a bit strange.
For a moment, the two of them didn't know what to say, but with their intelligence, they seemed to know something about each other's secrets, and they became somewhat close for a while.
After that, after Lin Daiyu finished taking care of the housework every day, she would go to the family temple to sit and talk with Miaoyu, and occasionally talked about life in Taoyuan in the Grand View Garden.
A few days later, Xie Yuxiu Mu specially asked for some simple clothes, and brought Lin Daiyu, Zijuan and others, as well as seven or eight large cars of things.
There are a lot of living animals such as chickens, ducks, fish and geese, and fruits are always available. After all, the fruit trees on the village have not yet reached the harvest season.
There are also durable dry goods and vegetables, and more importantly, there are also the cards that Xie Yu had people carve based on the list given by Jia Zheng.
This time I went to Rosewood Castle not only to see how the Jia family was adapting now, but also to help Jia Zhengzhong build a small family temple.
That card was the main purpose of Xie Yu's trip. Although there was a list given by Jia Zheng, it was mainly copied from memory by Lin Daiyu, who had followed Jia's mother to participate in several Jia sacrifices many times.
Of course, due to regulations, the materials used, shape and size, and complexity are naturally different.
But it is already available.
After all, sacrifice is a major event in the feudal etiquette tradition, and the ancestors cannot be denied the incense.
Of course, this small family temple was built according to the regulations of the common people. After all, the Jia family are now "common people", so they naturally have to keep a low profile and no one can find fault here.
To be honest, in the past few years, especially the year when Xie Yu was away from the mansion, Lin Daiyu combined what she saw in Jia's mansion and her own thoughts to establish many rules and reforms in Xie's mansion.
】
If it were a little less muddy, it would be a little more noble.
When he arrived at Zhuangzi, Xie Yu didn't ask anyone to report it, so naturally no Jia family came to pick him up.
In the coming days, this red sandalwood castle will be tidied up and become popular. After all, those who have experienced wealth know how to tidy up.
It can also be seen that for menial tasks such as lifting, sweeping, lighting fires, and helping in the kitchen, the Jia family has hired many refugees who were originally recruited by Xie Yu.
Judging from the swift steps of this refugee, it seems that he also accepts his identity.
This made Xie Yu scratch his head. Xie Yu brought them here so that they could have a place to stay and make arrangements later.
It’s just that this is the case….
"If you don't do anything as a free man, you will become a slave?"
It is indeed a characteristic of the times!
Of course, the wealthy Jia family are also particularly good at painting cakes!
For example, after the Jia family was "rehabilitated", they could be employed as housekeepers and have children, they would not have to pay taxes and do corvee work, and they would have no worries about food and drink for the rest of their lives.
Speaking of the treatment of slaves in the Jia family, let's take a third-class girl as an example. In addition to being in charge of food, housing and clothing, she gets 500 yuan per month. Plus the annual reward, she can easily earn twelve taels of silver a year.
And a coolie outside who works by himself not only has to support a family, but also pays taxes. He works exhaustingly for a year and may not be able to save a few taels.
Compared with the outside world, the life of the little girl from the original Jia family is indeed no worse than that of the young lady from a small family.
After all, productivity in this era is very underdeveloped.
After all, not all people care about freedom. Both can be thrown away in the face of survival. Face and dignity are useless.
Grandma Liu is an example.
Speaking of Grandma Liu, Xie Yu wouldn't believe these people if they didn't have Grandma Liu to talk things over and work for the Jia family.
Sure enough, the main reason why people hate the rich second generation is nothing else. All the reasons are excuses. The main reason is that I am not the rich second generation!
Xie Yu and Lin Daiyu brought so many things over, even if they didn't ask anyone to inform them in advance, the people in the village knew about it.
Therefore, just halfway into the village, a servant informed Jia Zheng, and Jia Zheng led several people out to pick up Xie Yu.
Xie Yu was not surprised when Jia Zheng came out, but when he saw the people with Jia Zheng, Xie Yu was a little surprised.
Since the fall of the Jiangnan Zhen family, which was closely related to them, the next person to fall was the Shi family among the four major families.
Then came the Jia family, then the Xue family, and the Wang family just fell after celebrating the New Year.
Or because of the case of the Jia family, for the Xue family and the Wang family, the emperor just ransacked their homes and locked up the Xue family and the Wang family, unless they were found out and had to be dealt with.
Most of them were "tolerant" and demoted to common people, leaving them to fend for themselves.
Come to think of it, if you don’t want to be provided with food (prison meals), let’s live in (cells)!
After all, since the over-seventy-year-old Emperor lost his eyesight, couldn't see, and was not in good health, the emperor's authority became more and more powerful.
The "mean and ungrateful" emperor was a lover of "ranchasing homes and genocide", and his cell was never empty.
Those who are not guilty of any serious crime can come out directly after paying the "criminal settlement money". This can be said to be "special handling".
But these people came out, but they were penniless. In addition, they had "misfortune" on them. It is reasonable for most of their former friends to immediately change their faces and "cut off the friendship".
Even if the married daughter is given some "dowry" subsidies, it is still a drop in the bucket. After all, because of the house confiscation, most of the husband's families prohibit the daughter from contacting her natal family, and some are even ruthless enough to give her a letter of divorce.
They "accidentally" learned that Jia Zheng had a place to stay in Zhuangzi. They had no food or accommodation, so they naturally came to seek refuge.
It turned out that the four major families were related to each other and were all relatives. Jia Zheng could not refuse because of his face.
Soon, in just a few days, the original Jia family of 100 members expanded to the "four major families" of more than 300 members.
Most of these people are used to being superior to others, so they find someone to "serve" them in this village. As for the matter of paying wages, it is naturally a matter for the master and the Jia family.
In the past, it was the custom for the four big families to visit each other. For example, Jia Mu once gave the sisters Xue Baochai, Xue Baoqin, Xing Xiuyan, and Li a two-month plan that gave them the same treatment as Lin Daiyu in the spring.
But that was a time when there was no shortage of glory, this time...
Fortunately, there is still no shortage of farm food and turnips and radishes in the regular season. In addition, in the name of keeping filial piety for the old lady Jia Mu, the diet is simple and vegetarian.
This place was originally a wasteland, but the land was vast and sparsely populated. The village was large enough, and for a while it was considered a place to live, eat, drink and wear. Of course, people who were used to enjoying it could only tolerate two meals at most.
Then..., then the small domestic animals such as chickens, ducks and geese, and even the small domestic dogs that Zhuangzi and Xie Yu had gathered in the house of the homeless Sangu were "missing" unconsciously.
Someone reported it to Jia Zheng. Jia Zheng naturally understood what was going on. However, due to the favor of his relatives and his lack of IQ, he didn't know how to deal with it except for secretly subsidizing some.
As for the housekeeper, Xue Baochai is just a junior, telling others how to behave, and others telling you the rules. What you say and what you say is how it was back then.
Tell them the rules, and they will show off their face without hesitation. Xue Baochai also has a lot of headaches from many relatives who rely on their elders and show off.
Even if she asked her mother, Aunt Xue, for "advice", she had no idea and had to leave, especially after these relatives suddenly remembered the "old way" to settle the accounts.
Xue Baochai, who had no books to read and was very knowledgeable, could only watch as the money in his account became less and less, and he had no choice but to do anything.
It is true that poor people must be hateful, just like the Eight Banners uncles after the Revolution of 1911. They can't do anything, spend money to enjoy the first place, some have no tomorrow today, and many starve to death in the end.
Those who really have some ability and can find a job for themselves are the subordinates who were not taken seriously in the past, but they naturally know what kind of beating nature their main lineage uncle is, and they have left long ago.
Only these "useless" people are left, and in the name of relatives and favors, the Jia family is "extinct".
Although Xie Yu is not very smart, he can feel it from Jia Zheng's attitude and tone.
In fact, these relatives also understand that they have no ability and cannot support themselves, but they have no other income and can only "die" to live in the Jia family.
But I have too many problems. Although I only said before I came that I could have food, food, and a kennel, the Jia family couldn't really do that because of their feelings.
Have someone bring what you brought over to the kitchen.
I seem to hear the sound of swallowing saliva!
There is a saying that "If your heart reaches God's knowledge, it will be eaten by others!"
It means that there is respect in the heart, and gods and gods can know that the food offered is ultimately meant for people to eat.
These good things ended up in their mouths. They didn't go to the countryside, they didn't suffer, they didn't know what oil and water meant.
Forget it, forget about this for now!
According to the rules, Xie Yu and Lin Daiyu first paid homage to the tomb of Mrs. Jia Mu.
