The Lin family's father and daughter rested for two days and finally washed away their fatigue.
Feng Yibo brought gifts and went straight to Jia's Mansion in Rongguo with the two of them.
As soon as we arrived at Ningrong Street, there were servants waiting outside.
After welcoming them in through the corner door, Daiyu was taken directly to the back house.
Lin Ruhai and Feng Yibo went to the main hall to pay their respects.
It is rare for brothers Jia She and Jia Zheng to gather together, with Jia Lian and Baoyu accompanying them.
As soon as the two people arrived in the main hall, everyone from the Jia family, old and young, stood up to greet them.
"I've met two brothers-in-law!"
Lin Ruhai was the first to salute. Jia She stepped forward to help him up and said with a smile:
"Ruhai has just recovered from a serious illness and has lost a lot of weight!"
Jia Zheng also smiled and agreed:
"It's true that I've lost weight, but my face looks pretty good."
"The description of Ruhai has changed, but the two brothers-in-law still have the same style, which is really enviable!"
Lin Ruhai took care of both of them with just one sentence.
Then all the juniors greeted each other one by one, and the guests and hosts took their seats.
When Jia Lian and Feng Yibo met, they whispered:
"Your sister-in-law will definitely ask you later, but don't let it slip, Yibo!"
Feng Yibo naturally understood that he was talking about Guerlain.
After giving him a reassuring look, Jia Lian breathed a sigh of relief.
After everyone chatted in the hall for a while, Lin Ruhai proposed to visit his mother-in-law.
A large number of men rushed towards the backyard.
We got the letter a long time ago.
Two big maids, Amber and Glass, and four second-class maids were waiting in the aisle.
As soon as he saw the crowd coming, he quickly stepped forward to lead the way.
Jia Lian and Feng Yibo followed behind, walking side by side.
Originally, he wanted to take care of him a few more words.
But Baoyu was still following behind him, so it was inconvenient to say more.
"Ruhai meets my mother-in-law!"
As soon as Lin Ruhai entered the house, he rushed forward and paid homage.
Mrs. Shi was supported by Yuanyang and Jade, and she stepped forward to help him up. She cried and laughed and said:
"Okay, okay! You're in great shape, you're stronger than anything else!"
Then the juniors on both sides met with each other.
Feng Yibo met Jia Mu and several ladies.
The daughters-in-law from each house, Sanchun and Daiyu also came to see my uncle and uncle.
After the two parties greeted each other, the daughter-in-law and the girl went to another room.
The elders and gentlemen stayed here to talk, while Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang waited on Jia's mother.
Seeing Lin Ruhai, Mrs. Shi couldn't help but think of the deceased Jia Min, and felt sad for a moment.
"The trip to Yangzhou lasted for many years, and I left my sensitive child there!"
"Now that I don't have a daughter, my poor Yu'er also has a mother!"
As he spoke, Mrs. Shi's tears started falling down.
The two ladies beside him comforted him softly.
Speaking of Jia Min, Lin Ru felt uncomfortable.
Then I shed two tears, but I didn't want to mention Jia Min anymore.
He just said: "It's Ru Hai's fault that my mother-in-law is worried!"
Jia Mu was tired from crying, so she wiped her tears and said:
"Fortunately, you are fine this time, otherwise what would Yu'er do?"
Lin Ruhai also wiped away her tears, forced a smile and said:
"Thanks to my mother-in-law, I got better this time, so I can return to Beijing just in time."
"From now on, I can also act as a filial piety to my mother-in-law on behalf of Miner Chenghuan."
When Jia Min was mentioned, Jia's mother wiped away tears again.
At this time, Jia She and Jia Zheng tried to comfort her, and Jia's mother stopped crying.
After a moment of relief, Jia Mu said angrily:
"When Lian'er came back a while ago, I was still asking! Why haven't Ru Hai and Yu'er come to live here?"
When Feng Yibo heard this, he quickly stepped forward to apologize and said with a smile: "I don't blame my uncle for this, it's all Yibo's negligence."
"I'm afraid that my uncle and Daiyu will be tired from traveling, and I'm afraid that the old lady will see her tired face, which will only increase her worries."
"That's why I made the decision and rested at my house for two days before coming here today."
Mother Jia naturally knew the situation. She nodded when she heard this, but then said:
"Since you are here today, don't leave. You and your daughter will be raised in the house from now on. Don't go anywhere!"
As he spoke, he sniffed and lamented:
"If Daiyu is not here to accompany me, I can't even sleep!"
Lin Ruhai was a little embarrassed when he heard this and hesitated:
"My mother-in-law loves me so much, Ruhai should have obeyed!"
"It's just that I'm in good health now and don't need to recuperate anymore."
Having said this, he smiled and said:
"In the next few days, I will be responsible for the salt patrol and return to Lantai Temple to perform my duties."
This is my business, and it's not easy for Jia's mother to stop her after hearing this.
However, although she nodded, she still said:
"You have court matters, so of course I won't stop you, but Daiyu must stay."
Lin Ruhai immediately smiled and nodded when he heard this, and said:
"That's right. Daiyu is still young, so she originally wanted to ask her mother-in-law to help with her education."
Afterwards, everyone chatted for a while, and a servant came to ask for instructions, saying that a banquet was set up ahead.
Everyone stood up to see each other off, with Feng Yibo and Jia Lian walking at the end.
As soon as we arrived at the three living rooms, the elders in front of us had already walked around the screen.
Then I heard someone shout from behind: "Uncle Feng, please slow down!"
Feng Yibo turned around and saw Ping'er and Wang Xifeng chasing after him.
The other daughters-in-law seemed to know what she was doing, and they covered their mouths and looked at her from a distance.
Jia Lian also stopped and frowned: "Brother Yibo is going to have a drink in front. Do you want the elders to wait for us?"
"The Point Guard Is Here"
Wang Xifeng rolled her eyes at him and said, "Then why don't you go and file a complaint? Just tell Brother Yibo that someone will leave to ask a few words and he will be here later."
"you!"
When Jia Lian heard this, he stretched out his hand and pointed at Wang Xifeng, but when he saw Wang Xifeng's eyes widened, he suddenly became a little weaker.
Thinking of saying hello to Feng Yibo before, he stopped being embarrassed here and turned around and chased after the elders.
This scene that makes people laugh or cry seems to happen often in Jia's house.
Whether it's Ping'er or the female volume watching the excitement from a distance.
It seemed like he didn't even bother to smile.
Feng Yibo suppressed his laughter and stepped forward to salute:
"I've met the second sister-in-law Lian."
When Wang Xifeng came up, she took the lead and said resentfully:
"Brother Yibo, you are not authentic!"
"oh?"
When Feng Yibo heard this, he knew what she was referring to, but he still pretended to be stupid and said:
"What does Sister-in-law Lian mean by this?"
"Don't you know what it means?"
Wang Xifeng narrowed her eyes slightly, approached slightly, and asked:
"How did you promise me before leaving?"
"Second sister-in-law Lian didn't tell me, I almost forgot."
When Feng Yibo heard this, he suddenly showed a look of surprise and said with a smile:
"When we left, Sister-in-law Lian said that as long as Brother Lian didn't go see the Yangzhou Shou Ma, he owed me a favor and there must be a generous reward, right?"
He barely suppressed his laughter and said, "I wonder if what Second Sister-in-law Lian said is still relevant now?"
"you!"
Wang Xifeng suffocated, remembering that that was indeed what he said.
Upon seeing this, Feng Yibo immediately took another step closer and said deliberately:
"I understand, Sister-in-law Lian came to me to fulfill her promise that day."
"Tell me, what is the repayment for Second Sister-in-law Lian's favor?"
Wang Xifeng gritted his teeth and said, "What I'm saying is, don't let your second brother Lian do whatever you want!"
Naturally, Feng Yibo would not admit it. He immediately shook his head and started to make nonsense:
"I don't know if Brother Lian is acting recklessly, but I can guarantee that he has never touched Yangzhou Skinny Horse."
Seeing Wang Xifeng about to interrupt, Feng Yibo added:
"You can confront Uncle Lin about this matter. I won't tell you any lies."
Although Lin Ruhai was brought out as a guarantee, Wang Xifeng was not that easy to deal with and still pursued after hearing this.
"Tell me first if he is fooling around?"
Feng Yibo naturally would not be entangled by her and smiled slightly.
"Second sister-in-law Lian is changing the subject, doesn't she want to fulfill her promise?"
"you!"
Wang Xifeng has a strong temper and does not tolerate being spoken to. When she hears words, she suppresses her anger.
"Who said you won't honor it? I will honor it for you right now!"
At this point, he shouted, "Ping'er!"
"ah?"
Feng Yibo was stunned for a moment, then deliberately patted his heart, breathed a sigh of relief, and said:
"Oh oh oh, you scared me."
"What's the meaning?"
Wang Xifeng frowned immediately when she saw this, and then stared at him as if she had realized something.
"Oh! You don't miss my Ping'er, do you?"
"Second sister-in-law Lian, don't talk nonsense. As a man, it doesn't matter to me. At most, I will be called a romantic, but sister Ping'er has to take her reputation into consideration!"
Feng Yibo shook his head repeatedly, looked at her sideways and said:
"Besides, sister Ping'er and you are always together, so what you say will inevitably implicate yourself."
"Pfft!"
Ping'er was originally angry when he heard the two talking about her.
But when he heard Feng Yibo talking around and talking about Wang Xifeng, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Only then did he realize that Feng Yibo meant Wang Xifeng, not himself.
Of course, this is not meant to be funny, but to make fun of this hottie.
"OK!"
Wang Xifeng also reacted.
It can be seen that Ping'er smiled and suddenly became angry.
He pulled Ping'er's arm and said angrily:
"Are you turning your elbows outward? And you're laughing at me!"
"Didn't Second Sister-in-law Lian say she wants to cash it in? What kind of generous reward is it? I can't wait!"
Feng Yibo deliberately said the word "rich reward" heavily, waiting for Wang Xifeng's response.
Wang Xifeng gritted her teeth and glanced at him, then turned back and told Ping'er:
"The top-quality bird's nests sent by Concubine Nan'an a while ago are all rare things from overseas. Sister Lin is not in the house, so I will give her my share."
"yes!"
Ping'er knew that Wang Xifeng must be in pain, so he helped explain:
"Such the best products are not available in the market. Miss Lin's body is already weak, so she is suitable to use bird's nest to nourish her!"
Wang Xifeng felt more comfortable after hearing this, but said:
"Sister Lin is my sister, so she should take care of her. I would like to use this as repayment. Yibo won't mind, right?"
"Thank you, Second Sister-in-law Lian, for your care!"
Although the bird's nest is the best, Feng Yibo brought a lot of it to Daiyu.
But this intention cannot be refuted.
If it was given to him, he could still be picky.
But the other party gave her Lin Daiyu, so Feng Yibo could only thank her.
Seeing that the opponent was satisfied, Wang Xifeng wanted to take advantage of the victory and pursue the victory.
Let’s ask about Jiangnan again.
She didn't believe that Jia Lian could be honest, so she had to use some excuse to make him remember.
Feng Yibo did not give her a chance to continue asking questions. After thanking her, he immediately said:
"There are elders in front of me. If I don't want to keep them waiting, I won't talk to Sister-in-law Lian anymore."
"you!"
Wang Xifeng lost his wife and lost his troops.
The bird's nest was gone, but he still didn't ask anything. He suddenly became a little angry and said:
"I understand. Your second brother Lian must have been doing some random things, otherwise you wouldn't have left in a hurry."
Seeing that Feng Yibo was only left with his back, she even shouted:
"Don't think that I can't do anything to Jia Lian because you are so slippery!"
"Tell him, if I catch him even a little bit in the future, he will be forced to walk around without food!"
Feng Yibo went to the front and apologized before taking his seat.
Jia Lian couldn't wait to come over and ask him about the situation.
Naturally, what he got was a "OK" expression.
Now Jia Lian was completely relieved, but thinking that Wang Xifeng would definitely not give up.
He quickly asked Xing'er and Long'er to make arrangements.
On the other side, Ping'er followed Wang Xifeng's instructions and brought the best bird's nest to Daiyu.
Qingwen was packing Daiyu's things when she saw Ping'er coming and quickly stepped forward to greet her.
"What kind of wind brings Sister Ping'er here?"
"Of course it's the sea breeze!"
Ping'er joked, then handed over the thing in his hand and introduced:
"This is the best bird's nest sent by Princess Nan'an a while ago. They are all rare things from overseas."
"Our grandma knew that Miss Lin needed nourishment, so she specially asked me to bring it to her."
Daiyu was still with Jia Mu and didn't have time to return to the house.
Qingwen is her eldest girl, and she can also greet and send her off on her behalf.
Therefore, Ping'er felt free to leave it to her.
"Then I'll thank you first on behalf of our girl. When she comes back, I'll definitely go over and thank you later."
Qingwen took the bird's nest and opened it to take a look.
Then he wrapped it up with a smile, put it in a cabinet, and commented:
"Although it's a little worse than what we girls usually eat, it's still pretty good."
"What did you say?"
Ping'er thought he heard wrongly.
When Qingwen heard this, she knew that she was speechless, so she quickly covered it up and said:
"Nothing, nothing. My girl eats bird's nest on weekdays. It's similar to this. It's just right."
Although what he said was different from before, Ping'er still didn't believe it and questioned:
"Does your girl usually eat like this?"
After saying this, she didn’t even believe it, and said with a smile:
"You won't understand it once you see it. This is the best early rainy season lamp. You can't even buy it in the market!"
The first batch of bird's nests in the rainy season is called the first batch of bird's nests in the rainy season.
The bird's nest sent by Princess Nan'an seemed to be in good shape and of high purity, with almost no feathers at all.
It is indeed the best.
but……
"Why don't I understand?"
Qingwen has a competitive nature, so she retorted after hearing this:
"The one you got is good, but it's not as full as the one I have."
"If you don't believe me, I'll show you!"
As he spoke, he took two out of the cabinet and opened them.
One was sent by Ping'er just now, and the other was originally in the cabinet.
She opened two oil paper bags and said:
"The bird's nest you took is transparent and complete, without any impurities. It is indeed good."
"But when you compare it with ours, you can see the difference."
"Ah this..."
Ping'er took a look, and it was indeed what she said.
Daiyu's original one not only has a good shape but also has high purity.
It is also visible to the naked eye that it is a quarter larger than the one she sent!
Don't underestimate this quarter.
If the two were compared, the value would be at least double.
It is clear at a glance who is the real best.
"Uncle Feng bought these from overseas. It seems that the ones given by Princess Nan'an are not as good as this!"
Qingwen looked proud, as if she had won.
It's a pity there is no reward.
Ping'er was a little embarrassed, but he had to admit it and said:
"Sure enough, your family is better, but my grandma made the wrong wink."
As soon as these words came out, Qingwen also knew that something was wrong, and she immediately felt a little nervous.
After a rare moment of submission, he said: "Sister Ping'er, you blame me for talking nonsense. Don't talk to Mistress Lian about it."
Seeing that Ping'er only looked at him with a smile but said nothing, she said softly:
"Qingwen is nothing but a girl, but if she offends Mistress Lian because of this, I will never redeem myself."
"OK OK!"
Ping'er then put down his airs and said:
"I don't know your temper yet. This is me. If I meet others, I will stir up trouble for you."
Qingwen heard this and thanked her repeatedly: "Thank you so much, sister Ping'er! Thank you, thank you!"
Before Qingwen could catch her breath, she heard Ping'er say, "But I also want to talk to grandma about this!"
"ah?"
Qingwen immediately became anxious, but fortunately Ping'er smiled again and said:
"Don't worry, I won't say it was you who was showing off."
