Throughout the afternoon and into the evening, Lin Ruhai personally led Jia Hui and Sister Lin to put away all the Lin family's classics.
Sister Lin saw that Jia Hui had magical powers like a universe in his sleeves, so she asked him to put away all the pens, inks, paper, inkstones, and small objects that his father used every day so that he could think about them.
In the end, Sister Lin even put away all her mother's belongings and some of her favorite childhood things before she was satisfied.
"Jia Hui has such magical powers, I can rest assured and smile under the nine springs." Lin Ruhai was filled with joy. The stronger Jia Hui is, the safer his wife and daughter will be.
Time does not depend on human will. Even if Sister Lin is reluctant to leave, it will still be Lin Ruhai's last day.
On this day, Lin Ruhai did nothing, just like an ordinary father, staying with Lin Daiyu.
Sister Lin also knew what her father was thinking. Instead of being sad, she forced a smile to prevent her father from feeling distressed.
During this period, unknown people also sent some letters one after another. After reading it, Lin Ruhai felt relieved, "Hui'er, Yu'er, the debt will be wiped out after death. Most people have agreed to settle the grudges. I think Hui'er will be able to handle the remaining one or two, so I can rest assured."
Yu'er, my father is a little tired. You and Huier can help me go back to my room to rest! "
Lin Daiyu was shocked and understood something. She held back her tears and helped Lin Ruhai back to the room with Jia Hui.
Afterwards, Lin Daiyu exited the room, with tears in her eyes, "Cousin Hui, please change your father's clothes."
Jia Hui nodded, feeling uncomfortable in his heart. He was still too weak now. If he had the power to reach heaven and earth, he would definitely be able to save Lin Ruhai from the pain of reincarnation.
"Hui'er, take good care of Yu'er for me." Lin Ruhai's face had turned red.
Jia Hui said in a deep voice, "Father-in-law, don't worry." This short sentence made Lin Ruhai feel relieved.
Then, Jia Hui quickly changed Lin Ruhai into new clothes. After doing all this, he called Sister Lin in.
At this time, Lin Ruhai couldn't even speak. She held Lin Daiyu's hand until a moment later, her eyes closed and her hand dropped weakly.
"Daddy," Lin Daiyu cried heartbreakingly. Zijuan and Xueyan were outside the door and came in to support Sister Lin, who was almost fainting.
Jia Hui sighed softly, "Sister Yu'er, my father-in-law died with a smile on his face. You have to express your condolences as you still have funeral matters to take care of."
The Lin residence hung up white lanterns, Jia Hui and Lin Daiyu burned a pile of paper money for Lin Ruhai, and there were constant cries in the residence.
As Lin Ruhai's personally chosen son-in-law, Jia Hui and Lin Daiyu wore sackcloth and mourned each other. Jia Lian also rushed over to help with the funeral arrangements.
With the help of personal soldiers, the funeral was handled in an orderly manner. According to Lin Ruhai's will, there was no fanfare, but he only made friends and issued an obituary notice to the government.
It's just that the ending was disappointing. Except for a few personal friends and officials who had to come from the government, not many people came to worship, and the scene was deserted.
Even after the first seven days, there was still no expression from the court, not even a simple condolence.
The dignified doctor of Lantai Temple, the censor of the salt inspection, made no less than ten million taels of silver for the emperor, and was just forgotten.
Looking at Lin Daiyu's beautiful and heartbroken face, Jia Hui felt resentful in his heart. The emperor was too ruthless and he would not be able to give her retribution in the future.
Not for fame, not for profit, just to vent the resentment in my heart, otherwise what is the use of practicing martial arts.
After the first seven days of the new year, the matter of sending the spirit back to his hometown in Suzhou for burial will be put on the agenda.
Sister Lin is now mentally and physically exhausted. Fortunately, her mother is comforting her in her dreams and the tonics provided by the Fairy Alert, so her body can still hold on.
She had almost completely entrusted Jia Hui to handle Lin Ruhai's posthumous affairs. After all, a family with a young daughter was not suitable for public appearances.
"Second brother Lian, Yu'er and I will send the spirit to the ancestral land of the Lin family in Suzhou for burial in the next few days. The property in the mansion will be carefully counted now.
Please ask Brother Lian to take care of the chores, and when Yu'er and I come back from Suzhou, we can go back to Shenjing together," Jia Hui said to Jia Lian.
Jia Lian was so happy that it was finally time to harvest, "What brother Hui said is that they are all relatives, and I should help."
Most of the Lin Mansion's properties and shops have been liquidated. These coins, plus the dowry of Lin Daiyu's mother and daughter, were quickly inventoried.
The list was divided into two parts, with Jia Lian and Jia Hui each holding one for easy comparison in the future.
Seeing Jia Lian hesitant to speak, Jia Hui knew it well and took out a thick stack of banknotes from his body.
"This is the hundred thousand taels that my father-in-law promised to give to the second brother Lian. From now on, when Yu'er is in the Rongguo Mansion, please take care of her."
Jia Lian smiled from ear to ear, "It's easy to say, brother Hui's business is my business."
Jia Hui nodded, of course he would not take Jia Lian's words seriously, "Second brother Lian, the ugly words are ahead. If I hear any bad news in the Rongguo Mansion, don't blame me for being cruel."
Jia Lian was startled, and when he looked up, Jia Hui's eyes seemed to contain a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, which suddenly made him break out in cold sweat.
He blinked, and Jia Hui's eyes returned to normal.
But Jia Hui's half-smiling expression proved that what just happened was not a lie.
"Brother Hui, we are good brothers who have experienced life and death. I will definitely make arrangements in the house to prevent cousin Lin from being bullied." Jia Lian wiped away cold sweat and patted his chest to assure her.
After using illusions to plant a seed of fear in Jia Lian's heart, Jia Hui and Sister Lin embarked on the road to send the spirit back to Suzhou.
Yangzhou and Suzhou are not too far away, and the official roads are smooth along the way. After traveling day and night, it took only a few days to reach the ancestral land of the Lin family.
Although the Lin family is a Lihou family, its population is small, and the ancestral land is only maintained by a few distant clansmen.
Under the temptation of Jia Hui's large sum of money, these distant clansmen helped clean up the ancestral house and bury the coffin.
Then, Jia Hui and Sister Lin rested in the simple ancestral house, at least until they were seven years old, before they could return.
In the dream of the small world, Jia Min hugged Lin Daiyu and said, "Good Yu'er, you have to live a good life, so that your father can feel at ease under Jiuquan.
Brother Hui is also reliable. You have also seen these days that he handled your father's funeral affairs and treated you very well. "
"My daughter understands in her heart," Lin Daiyu said in a soft voice.
Her father has been dead for so many days, and with her mother by her side, Sister Lin's grief has improved a lot.
Living well by yourself is the greatest comfort to your father.
At this moment, there was no trace of Jia Baoyu in her heart.
After experiencing the pain of her father's death, Sister Lin quickly matured and began to think about her mother and future life.
