Lin Ruhai suddenly thought of persuading Lin Mo to study for the imperial examinations.
"Mo 'er, after much consideration, I still have to hire a great teacher to teach you.”Lin Ruhai's words had just started.
"Father, you've been working hard for a day. Hurry up and rest. I have something to do, so I'll take my leave first.”Lin Mo did not wait for Lin Ruhai to finish speaking before he ran away.
Lin Ruhai pointed in the direction that Lin Mo had run off in and laughed bitterly. He was getting more and more confused about this child.
The blissful days passed too damn fast. The one-month holiday passed very quickly, and Lin Ruhai had to start the bitter days of going to court every day again.
The next morning, the Emperor announced that Lin Ruhai would be appointed as a doctor of the Ministry of Rites. After the court meeting was over, the ministers congratulated Lin Ruhai and returned to their respective residences.
Lin Ruhai thought that there was a daughter in the Imperial Censor's family who was about the same age as Daiyu, so he hurried to catch up with her. The two important officials of the emperor discussed their children in a low voice on the imperial road in front of the palace.
From then on, Lin Ruhai officially entered the capital and became a close minister of the emperor. He worked diligently every day and returned to his usual days of leaving Yangzhou early and returning late.
Lin Mo continued to fiddle with his money-making business. The pillow was also completed under the efforts of Qing Ping and the other servant girls. They were neatly arranged on the sofa in the living room. The Lin family's living room finally had a modern atmosphere.
Daiyu also began to invite Sanchun, Li Wan, Feng Jie and others to visit the mansion. Baoyu learned that they were noisy and wanted to go. Grandmother Jia complained in her heart that Daiyu did not know how to do things. Knowing Baoyu's thoughts, why not invite Baoyu together?
Grandmother Jia coaxed Baoyu, but Baoyu just cried and refused to go to see Sister Lin. Grandmother Jia had no choice but to say that she would pick up Xiangyun as a guest another day.
When Baoyu heard that Xiangyun was coming to visit, he immediately stopped crying. Although Sister Lin was very good, she had a powerful brother. If he went and caused any trouble, Lin Mo would not even give face to Grandmother Jia.
It was better to stay at home and accompany Sister Xiangyun. Sister Xiangyun was also very cute and loved to play with him. She would usually not ignore him. He was happy again and didn't mention going to see Sister Lin.
Seeing that it was an invitation from Daiyu, Feng Jie secretly thought that the little girl was still willing to get close to her maternal family. The one she hated was Lin Mo. Although he was usually so busy that his feet did not touch the ground, he had to find time to go this time.
Li Wan usually only cared about reciting scriptures and chanting Buddha. She only wanted to take good care of Jia Lan and was not interested in anything in the camp. He didn't plan to go.
However, Suyun tried to persuade her," Grandma doesn't usually go out. It's not easy for me to have a chance to go out and relax. Besides, Miss Lin has good intentions. How can Grandma be so shameless as to brush Miss Lin off?"”
"Moreover, Master Lin is now an official in the capital. Brother Lan will need Master Lin's help in the future.”
Li Wan listened to Suyun's persuasion and thought that it made sense. She gathered her spirits and went to the appointment.
When the day arrived, San Chun and Feng Jie's son Li Wan sat in the carriage and went out. Grandmother Jia had sent someone to pick up Xiangyun early in the morning and finally managed to appease Baoyu.
After traveling for more than an hour in the carriage, they saw a spacious and tall gatehouse. There was a plaque on it with the words "Yi Yuan" written in calligraphy. Beside it was a couplet: "The shadows of flowers in front of the steps are chaotic, and the water under the bridge is long."
There were already people waiting at the door. Seeing that everyone had arrived, they hurriedly went in to welcome them.
Daiyu had already set up a tea set, fruits, and pastries in the pavilion, waiting for her sisters to arrive.
"Come, come, come. Hurry up and sit. It's been a long journey.”Daiyu greeted him with a smile.
"Snow Goose, hurry up and get a hot towel to wipe sister-in-law and the others.”
Everyone sat down. In the hall, there was a simple sofa that Lin Mo had already designed. It was covered with a thick cushion, and the cool breeze blew. The surrounding scenery was picturesque, and it was very comfortable.
"Sister Lin, your life is so beautiful!”Sister Feng teased with a smile.
"Yes, yes, Sister Lin's place is really beautiful. It's surrounded by trees, flowers in full bloom, rockery, and flowing water. It's too beautiful!”Xichun's crisp voice sounded.
"Sisters-in-law, as long as you like it.”Daiyu said," Let's rest for a while. I'll show everyone around.”
Li Wan was silent, her eyes full of envy. No wonder Daiyu was unwilling to live in the Jia residence. Everything here was decided by herself, and her husband had died early. She only had a son to guard her. There was her mother-in-law and her ancestor above her, so she was not free every day.
"Sister-in-law, have some tea." Daiyu called out from the side.
Li Wan came back to her senses and smiled faintly." I was mesmerized by the scenery in my sister's house.”Li Wan explained, unwilling to let Daiyu see anything.
"Sister-in-law, don't be anxious. There will be better ones later.”Dai Yu said with a smile.
"Sister Lin, this chair in the pavilion doesn't look like our usual one. It's so comfortable to sit on. Where did you buy it?”Tanchun asked curiously.
"Brother made this himself. He said it's called a sofa.”
Tanchun nodded thoughtfully.
After resting, Daiyu led everyone to stroll around the courtyard. There were all kinds of trees planted in the courtyard. Green could be seen in all four seasons, and flowers bloomed in spring and summer. It was simply beautiful.
The few of them walked to a place and saw a shed made of glass. There were some green plants planted inside, and everyone was very curious.
"Brother said that this is called a greenhouse. You can also plant vegetables and flowers in winter. With this, you can eat fresh vegetables all year round and have flowers in winter.”Daiyu explained.
Everyone was envious. Sister Phoenix and Tanchun were silently calculating in their hearts.
Everyone was tired from shopping and returned to the pavilion. The tea had already been replaced, and the fruits and pastries had also been replaced.
Tanchun was very envious. She thought that she was also very outstanding, but she had a brother who was very useless. Baoyu, this brother, seemed to be graceful and graceful, but he had no knowledge of official career. He only knew how to hang out with his sisters every day or fool around with servant girls. He did not know how to improve at all.
Everyone had their own thoughts for a moment. They all drank tea and ate fruits. Only Xichun was naive and romantic. She said that she had a good time.
"Sister Lin, can I come and play more often in the future?”
Xichun raised her small face and asked. Daiyu liked this little sister very much." Of course you can. You can come every day in the future."”
Xichun clapped her hands happily. After a while, she said with a drooping face," Old Ancestor definitely wouldn't allow it. This time, Second Brother insisted on coming, making Old Ancestor very unhappy. In the end, he had to invite Shi Jia Jie Jie before Second Brother gave up.”
Even though Daiyu was smart, she didn't know how to respond.
"Fourth Younger Sister, stop fooling around. In the future, we will definitely be able to come again after we ask the ancestor.”Tanchun advised.
No one knew what Sister Feng was thinking about, but Ying Chun didn't say anything.
Daiyu hurriedly ordered the servants to eat." The weather is good today. Let's use it in this pavilion."”Everyone agreed in unison.
