Buddha-like Mrs. Lin
Chapter 83
The Little Angels who didn't subscribe enough saw abnormal chapters.
It was worth reading.
In order to deal with a small Lin Ruhai,
He even dared to give up a second-rank official like the chancellor so easily.
He didn't know if this prince was too careless.
Or could it be that there was something behind this that they hadn't thought of?
He lifted the curtains of the window and looked at the empty street.
His expression was obscure.
Soon,
The carriage entered the Forbidden City.
The Holy Emperor brought up a few major events that he had been paying attention to during this period of time and urged them to make progress.
Then, he nodded to the head eunuch beside him.
The head eunuch immediately raised his voice. "If there's something to report, the court will be dismissed."
Jia Jing hurriedly stepped forward. "Your Majesty, this subject has a memorial."
The Holy Emperor looked at Jia Jing in surprise and nodded. "What's the matter?"
"Reporting to my Emperor, this subject wants to impeach the chancellor, Hu Yao, for condoning his evil servants to occupy the land of the people and fish in the village. He killed and injured many people who reported to the court. His son also forcefully separated the fiancee and forcefully abducted a woman.
He injured his fiancee.
He also ordered the medicine shops in the city not to treat him.
As a result, he died of serious injuries … "
Jia Jing listed dozens of crimes about Hu Yao before he stopped. The little eunuch standing at the bottom of the stairs hurriedly went forward to take Jia Jing's memorial and the evidence he had collected.
He walked up the stairs in a few steps and handed it over to the head eunuch.
It wasn't until the Emperor personally took the memorial.
Jia Jing returned to his position.
Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance.
Jia Jing would never give up until he completely suppressed Hu Yao.
The other officials couldn't help but look sideways.
They were curious about how Hu Yao had offended Jia Jing, a fox who had only participated in some trivial matters since he entered the Imperial Censor's mansion. He had never offended anyone to the end.
The Holy Emperor narrowed his eyes. After receiving the memorial, he opened it and asked, "Is Hu Yao here?"
Hu Yao hurriedly stepped forward. "This subject is here!"
"Imperial Censor Jia accused you of these crimes. Do you have anything to refute?"
Hu Yao was drenched in cold sweat. He immediately knelt on the ground and said, "I, confess."
Jia Jing's eyebrows twitched. She couldn't help but look at Hu Yao, only to find that although he looked scared, deep in his eyes, there was a sense of "finally here."
It was as if Hu Yao had expected that Jia Jing would report him to the Imperial Court today.
At that moment, Jia Jing had a bad premonition. He turned his head and looked at Jia Daishan, who was standing beside the generals.
Jia Daishan happened to turn around and met his gaze. Jia Daishan shook his head slightly.
Jia Jing was relieved. She lowered her head obediently and continued to be invisible.
The Holy Emperor flipped through the memorial, and the more he flipped, the angrier he became. In the end, he lost his composure and threw the memorial in front of Hu Yao. "Confess?"
Hu Yao trembled, not daring to say a word.
The Holy Emperor was so angry that he laughed. He looked past Hu Yao and at the princes standing at the front. "Hu Yao said, confess.
My good sons, what do you think? "
The princes were alarmed. They didn't know how this matter had anything to do with them.
The Crown Prince was the first to speak. "This subject thinks that Hu Yao's son is guilty of the most heinous crimes. According to the law, he should be beheaded. The Lord Hu failed to discipline him and should be exiled!"
The other princes didn't dare to offend the Holy Emperor and hurriedly agreed.
The Holy Emperor said indifferently, "Oh?
His son should be beheaded. Hu Yao should be exiled?
Do you all think so? "He singled out the Third Prince." Third Prince, do you think so too? "
The Third Prince's heart skipped a beat. "This subject agrees!"
"Ha!"
The Holy Emperor sneered. His expression was dignified. "Pick up Imperial Censor Jia's memorial and take a look."
The Third Prince became more and more worried, but he didn't dare to disobey the Holy Emperor. He could only walk in front of Hu Yao and bend down to pick up the memorial.
He stood in place and flipped through the memorial. However, after a short while, the Third Prince knelt down beside Hu Yao in a panic. "Imperial Father, this memorial says that Liu Hu helped Hu Yao's son commit evil and reaped benefits from it. This subject didn't know about this beforehand!"
Liu Hu's father hurriedly stepped forward. "Your Majesty, there must be an inside story. My son couldn't have done such a heinous thing."
The other princes looked at each other in dismay. They didn't dare to believe the Third Prince's words.
Liu Hu was the only son of the Third Prince's maternal grandfather. Because of his ability, he controlled most of the power of his maternal family.
If he was really involved in Hu Yao's matter, he wouldn't be able to get anything good out of it. This would be very detrimental to the Third Prince's future plans.
Only the Eldest Prince, who was standing next to the Crown Prince, frowned. He seemed to be very puzzled by this.
However, this wasn't worth much consideration. In any case, the Third Prince was also eyeing the chair under his Imperial Father's butt. If he could take advantage of this opportunity to cut off part of his power, it would also be beneficial to him.
Thinking of this, he tilted his head to look in the direction of the minister on the other side and nodded.
Not long after, another imperial censor stood up from behind Jia Jing. "Reporting to Your Majesty, this subject also has a report regarding Lord Hu's crimes."
The Holy Emperor's expression became more and more unfathomable. "Bring it up!"
The imperial censor originally opened his mouth to speak, but when he heard this, he could only hand the memorial to the eunuch and then retreat.
The Holy Emperor flipped open the memorial. He was too lazy to say anything else. He directly ordered, "Drag Hu Yao down and behead him!
Have the Supreme Court investigate Liu Hu. If there is conclusive evidence, act according to the law. "
Act according to the law?
If there is evidence, does the Emperor want to behead Liu Hu?
The entire court was shocked.
More than an hour after the court adjourned, the Supreme Court finally released the news. It turned out that Hu Yao had actually extended his hand to the Jiangnan salt policy. In just two short years, he had madly seized hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. And most of this money had been sent to Liu Hu's hands.
If Hu Yao had been beheaded, how could Liu Hu get away with it?
If it weren't for the Third Prince's face, the Emperor would probably have ordered him to be beheaded during the court session today.
At night, Jia Jing came to Rongguo Province with a belly full of doubts. "Second Uncle, today's matter …"
"We were used as tools." Jia Daishan's face was ashen.
Jia Jing was shocked. "Who was it?"
Jia Daishan shook his head. "I don't know who it was for the time being.
That Hu Yao's son had eyes but didn't recognize Mount Tai. He kidnapped a civilian girl and actually managed to kidnap the Eldest Prince's subordinate. "
Jia Jing was at a loss for a moment, then immediately reacted. "That fiancé who died of illness?"
"He was the son of the Eldest Prince's trusted aide. Because his father failed the imperial examination, he didn't have an official position.
That Liu Hu took a fancy to his daughter-in-law. Seeing that his family had no power and influence, he decided to kidnap a civilian girl. "
"In order to appease that aide, the Eldest Prince had to avenge him and send Liu Hu's family to prison."
Jia Jing thought carefully and had another guess. "Was there someone else behind this?"
Jia Daishan shook his head and sighed. "I don't know …"
Jia Jing pursed his lips. "Second Uncle, you should have received the news before I submitted the memorial, right?
Why did you rush to take action when you knew that we were being used as tools to deal with the Third Prince? "
"Because we had to."
Jia Daishan looked up in the direction of the Forbidden City. "It's a fact that Ruhai was schemed against by Hu Yao. If we don't punish him as an example to others, we will be in trouble in the future.
Moreover, we belong to the Crown Prince's camp and are enemies with the other princes. It's necessary to deal with the Third Prince and the other princes. "
However, they couldn't be at ease as long as they didn't know who was behind all this.
It was easy to dodge a spear in the open, but difficult to guard against a hidden arrow.
Moreover, this hidden arrow was laced with poison, and the person who shot it was even more intelligent.
"But won't people think that we are working with the Eldest Prince?"
"I have already explained to the Crown Prince in advance."
"Is Hu Yao really the Third Prince's subordinate?"
"Even if he was before, he won't be after offending the Eldest Prince.
The Third Prince is very stingy and timid … "
In the end, the Chang Clan could only give up and choose relatively less dangerous topics to chat with Jia Su.
For example, how to manage the family affairs.
For example, how to manage her dowry and estate.
For example, how to capture her husband's heart and prevent him from being bewitched by his concubines.
As Grand Secretary Zhang's only daughter, her ability to manage and manage the family affairs was needless to say. At least after the Old Ancestor passed away, Rongguo Province only saw the beginning of chaos and didn't become a pot of porridge like in A Dream of the Red Chamber. This was already the result of the Chang Clan's efforts to salvage.
After she married Jia Xie, even if she didn't have a child for three years, she still made Jia Xie dote on her alone. Before the marriage, she was placed in Jia Xie's room to teach her about human affairs. After that, when Madam Jia was anxious to have a grandson, the few maids who were bestowed upon her could only guard an empty room alone.
Although this made Madam Jia particularly dissatisfied with the Chang Clan, it was enough to prove the Chang Clan's ability in taming husbands.
She talked to Jia Su about these things that Madam Jia didn't teach at all because she wanted to curry favor with Jia Su.
However, Jia Su didn't care.
For the former, Jia Su believed that she already had Jia Zhi, this self-taught management talent. For the latter, she never thought of being affectionate with Lin Ruhai.
However, this time, the Chang Clan brought a piece of news that made Jia Su very concerned. "After Eldest Madam attended Fourth Sister's wedding last time, she found out that she was pregnant and is now nursing the baby.
Mother-in-law also sent people to send many fetus nourishing gifts to Xiuguogongfu. Who would have thought that she would have a miscarriage in less than half a month? "
Jia Su widened her eyes in astonishment. "Eldest Madam had a miscarriage?"
The Chang Clan's eyes were heavy. "Xiuguogongfu has already sent news to father-in-law and mother-in-law. She indeed had a miscarriage.
Mother-in-law also sent people to visit Eldest Madam two days ago. "
Since Madam Jia had sent someone to visit him, this news must be true.
However, a miscarriage?
Jia Su couldn't believe this result.
On the day of Jia Min's wedding, Jia Gu's complexion was rosy and her health was better than Jia Zhi's. How could she have a miscarriage after only being pregnant for half a month?
Perhaps because Jia Su's face was a little ugly, the Chang Clan didn't dare to talk to her about what would happen after she got married and quickly left.
Jia Su sat on the chair and pondered for a long time. She said, "Chi Xia, I'm tired. I'm going to sleep first. Don't let anyone disturb me."
After that, she went straight into the bedroom.
Chi Xia pursed her lips. She knew that Miss was worried about Eldest Madam's miscarriage, so she didn't ask much. She hurriedly drove all the servants in the room away. She and Cui Yan guarded the door and didn't let anyone in.
Jia Su went back to the bedroom with a conflicted expression. She originally decided not to use her superpower if it didn't endanger her life.
But soon, she made up her mind and attached her mental strength to a mosquito.
After all, Jia Gu was one of the future managers of her industry. She couldn't let anything happen to Jia Gu at this time.
Losing a child was a pain that could easily make people commit suicide in modern times, let alone in ancient times when heirs were more important than the sky. Women in the harem regarded heirs as the foundation of their foothold.
What's more, Jia Gu's husband didn't care about her as his wife. She wasn't even sure if he would make her pregnant.
Although Xiuguogongfu and Rongguo Province were both in the capital, the distance between them was quite far.
Jia Su controlled the mosquito to fly for half an hour before it entered Xiuguogongfu. It then carefully circled the servants for half an hour before it found out where Jia Gu lived.
As the legitimate wife of Duke Xiu's concubine-born son, Jia Gu lived with her husband in a small, remote courtyard because they hadn't separated from the family yet.
But when Jia Su went in, she discovered that Jia Gu's room was in the most remote corner.
Jia Gu was lying on the bed with lifeless eyes. Her entire being was shrouded in despair.
Jia Su was startled. She hurriedly flew to Jia Gu's face and fiercely bit her.
However, no one paid attention to the mosquito, which would have been instantly killed in the past.
After losing her child, Jia Gu had long since lost her life.
"Creak —"
Jia Su carefully flew up and grabbed the mosquito net with her feet. She didn't dare to let anyone discover her figure.
"Miss, the young master is already gone, but Miss Biao caused you to miscarry and was only punished with a few months' salary. Do you really not hate her at all?
You haven't eaten for several days. Even if it's to avenge the young master, you still have to take care of your body, right? "A maidservant held a bowl of millet porridge on a tray and knelt in front of Jia Gu's bed, earnestly advising her.
However, Jia Gu still didn't have the slightest reaction.
Jia Su recognized that this maidservant was the one Jia Gu had brought back to Rongguo Province last time. She trusted her very much.
She seemed to be called Chun Sheng.
Chun Sheng sighed and rambled on, "Second Miss is so worried about Miss. If you really sullenly die like this, wouldn't it make Second Miss angry and sad?
Second Miss has a stubborn temper. What if she does something that can't be undone? "
Jia Gu's eyelids trembled, but she still didn't say anything.
This scene had already happened countless times in the past half month. No matter how loyal and devoted Ren Chunsheng was, she was also somewhat disheartened.
Eldest Miss was really a good-for-nothing. If Second Miss …
Chun Sheng was at a loss, "Miss, if you don't pull yourself together, I don't know what to do.
You still don't know, Xia Fan … has already become the young master's concubine. Now she's fighting with Miss Biao in full swing.
But you also know that the young master especially loves Miss Biao. Now it's only been a short time, so the young master can't see the novelty. But after a long time, Xia Fan will definitely not end well. "
Behind Miss Biao stood the young master's birth mother. As long as the young master's birth mother was still alive, it was impossible for her to be defeated.
Chun Sheng told Jia Gu everything that had happened recently in full detail, hoping to arouse Jia Gu's will to live. But in the end, she was disappointed.
Jia Gu closed her eyes and didn't move.
When Chun Sheng left in disappointment again, Jia Gu's eyes dripped with a line of clear tears, "Chun Sheng, Xia Fan …" I'm sorry.
Jia Su saw all this in her eyes. Suddenly, a feeling of "sorrow for the misfortune and anger for the failure to fight" gushed out from the bottom of her heart. She couldn't wait to immediately open her mouth and scold Jia Gu, who wanted to die, awake.
But due to her current mosquito body, she could only make a buzzing sound.
It made her feel more and more irritated.
Jia Su helplessly flew out of Jia Gu's bedroom.
This experience of using the supernatural ability was really not a pleasant one.
Although she knew why Jia Gu hadn't given her a reply for so long, she would rather not know.
After Jia Su left Xiuguogongfu, she kept flying towards Rongguo Province. She couldn't wait to return to her room in the blink of an eye.
But she didn't expect that because she was too anxious and didn't look at the road, she would hit a "wall" halfway. Because of the inertia, she was dizzy from the collision and fell to the ground.
When Jia Su regained her senses and controlled the mosquito to fly again, that person had already left.
But when she looked at that person's back, she felt that it was somewhat familiar.
Jia Su asked herself, if she was in her second sister's position, she wouldn't necessarily have a good impression of the culprit who caused her to be unable to be a mother.
It was one thing to not want to have children, but it was another thing to not be allowed to have children when you could.
However, Jia Shu felt that there were other emotions hidden in Jia Zhi's eyes when he looked at the child.
And this child didn't seem to have no feelings towards Jia Zhi.
Jia Su sighed in her heart and looked at Jia Gu. She found that her attitude towards the three children was much simpler: disgust.
Yes, there was only pure disgust in Jia Gu's eyes as he looked at the three children.
Among them, the youngest girl received the most emotions from Jia Gu.
Jia Zhi noticed her gaze and said faintly, "He asked for it. Third Sister, you don't have to care."
As soon as she said this, a trace of hurt flashed through the boy's eyes. He twisted his two fleshy paws together and said with an aggrieved expression, "Mother, my face hurts ~"
But Jia Zhi didn't care at all.
Seeing that Jia Zhi ignored him, the child curled his lips and lowered his head dejectedly.
The other three children were complacent when they saw this. The girl even said proudly to Jia Gu, "Di Mother, this boy pushed me down. You must avenge me. Otherwise, when I go back, I'll tell Father that he can't enter your house for a month!"
Not to mention Jia Su, even Chi Xia's Cui Yan, who was accustomed to taking in concubines, couldn't help but widen her eyes and look at this little girl in disbelief.
Was this really something a five or six-year-old girl would say?
She instigated Father to suppress Di Mother?
But at the beginning, Jia Su was full of concern for Jia Su's experience. In order to "save Jia Su", she didn't hesitate to offend Di Mother. Now, Jia Gu's face was full of embarrassment and she didn't have the slightest bit of dignity as an official wife and mother.
She just asked the servant girls to pull the three children aside and didn't even reprimand them.
In the end, it was Jia Zhi's cold face that made them shut up.
Jia Su only saw the tip of the iceberg about Jia Gu's life in Xiuguogongfu.
She suddenly thought of the young Lin Ruhai. Although she knew that he and Jia Gu's and Jia Zhi's husbands were not the same kind of people, she was once again determined that she would never give the bottom half of her body to a man.
Men were all big pig trotters!
Men in ancient times were f * cking upgraded versions of big pig trotters!
Meeting Jia Su's gaze, Jia Gu awkwardly turned her head and looked away.
Jia Zhi laughed for the first time. Her gaze fell on the little girl who showed a mean temper at such a young age. "I told you that your husband is a bastard who spoils his concubines and neglects his wife. You can't let him control you.
You didn't take my words to heart. Now you've tasted the bitterness?
Ha! "
Jia Gu turned her head and smiled reluctantly. "He's my husband and my god. What can I do?"
Jia Zhi glared at Jia Gu resentfully. "You're really …"
"Two sisters …"
Jia Zhi turned her head and looked over. She sighed. "It's nothing. It's just a small matter not worth mentioning."
Jia Gu nodded in agreement.
The two obviously didn't want to talk about their life after marriage. Jia Su had no choice but to change the topic. The atmosphere was really awkward.
It wasn't until Jia Gu sent someone to invite Jia Gu and Jia Su that the atmosphere in the room eased.
Jia Zhi stood up and glanced at Jia Su. "Those gossipy women are all in fourth sister's boudoir. If you don't appear, I don't know what kind of rumors will spread about you."
Jia Gu persuaded her. "Third sister's reputation in the capital is not good. It's not good for you if you add more gossip to them."
Thinking that she was the only one who didn't appear among the four sisters, Jia Su followed her.
-
Time flew by. It had been more than a month since Jia Min's wedding.
Because of the animosity between them, Jia Zhi didn't let Jia Min meet her on the day of her return.
However, just a few days ago, she heard that Jia Daishan had found a job for Zhou Yu's family in the Imperial Guard Long. He directly cut off Jia Min from following him back to the southwest.
This time, Jia Min couldn't use the house fighting method that she had asked her about for the time being.
Cui Yan was indignant when she heard the news. "If Miss marries over, Master won't care whether Miss marries far away or not. It's impossible for him to arrange a job for Miss's husband."
Chi Xia glared at her. "Cui Yan, be careful with your words!"
Jia Su waved her hand. She didn't care. "Did eldest sister send any news?"
Jia Zhi acted decisively. Not long after returning, she bought the few that Jia Su liked with her dowry. After that, she often sent people to exchange information with her.
However, it was as if Jia Gu had disappeared. She hadn't come up with an answer even after such a long time.
Chi Xia still shook her head. "This servant asked the gatekeeper. Xiuguogongfu's servants didn't come over during this time."
Jia Su wanted to ask more, but the servant girl who passed on the message ran in. "Miss, the young mistress is here."
Jia Su held her forehead. She could only put aside Jia Gu's matter for the time being. "Let her in."
This Jia Daishan really didn't give up. Ever since he discovered that concubine Hu was stubborn and couldn't be used as a breakthrough to ease their relationship, he had Zhang shi and Wang shi come every day to interact with her, regardless of whether she was willing or not.
She couldn't fall out with him. She could only deal with him carefully.
It had been three years since the Chang Clan married into the family. However, because they still hadn't gotten a firm foothold in Rongguo Province, they could only obey the Jia Daishan and his wife's orders.
But the matter of communicating feelings with Jia Shu was really beyond the scope of her ability.
Because of the Jia Daishan's attitude towards Jia Su, the Chang Clan treated this concubine-born sister-in-law very carefully. They were afraid that they would offend her if they didn't pay attention. If that happened, they would have to bear the consequences in front of their parents-in-law.
Therefore, in the beginning, the Chang Clan only planned to oppose Jia Su's poetry recital.
This topic was safe and could also pass the time.
However, she didn't expect that Jia Su didn't know anything about poetry. Not to mention that she wrote poems herself, Jia Su often looked confused when she recited a line of ancient poems. He actually said that he didn't know anything about it.
A trace of nostalgia flashed in Jia Su's eyes.
In her previous life, she had lived in a peaceful environment before she became an adult. She had never thought about how many people had paid for this peace with their blood and sweat.
It wasn't until the day she became an adult that she accidentally awakened her superpower and learned the truth behind the peaceful lives of ordinary people. She complied with the country's recruitment and became a member of the government. After countless battles, she gradually understood that peace didn't come easily.
Because of these experiences, Jia Su understood better than anyone else that when an individual's strength was far superior to others, but they didn't have the corresponding self-restraint and indulged in the pleasure brought by their unique strength, it would have a bad impact on the world.
Therefore, Jia Su had been consciously controlling the number of times she used her superpower. If she could avoid using it, she would try her best not to.
If she could, she even hoped that she would never encounter a situation where she could only use her superpower.
Unfortunately, the heavens didn't listen to her wishes.
It was already late at night, but Jia Min's room was still brightly lit.
Seeing this, Jia Su couldn't help but sigh. She had chosen the right time to find out what was going on tonight.
Jia Su's spiritual power, which was linked to the moth's brain, flew into Jia Min's courtyard. Then, it found a gap in the window and drilled into the room, landing on the glass lamp closest to Jia Min.
At this time, Jia Min was restlessly tossing back and forth on the bed. The expression on her originally lovely face was constantly changing. One moment she was annoyed and self-reproachful, the next moment she was happy. After a moment of struggle, Jia Min's expression gradually calmed down. Her clear and beautiful eyes slowly became firm.
In fact, ever since she was grounded by her parents because of the "tryst incident", she couldn't sleep at all. She couldn't sleep at all, and her hair was falling out in handfuls.
Her two personal maids panicked when they saw this. They wanted to go find her mother, but she stopped them.
She had a knot in her heart about her mother.
It wasn't because of the unsatisfactory marriage, but because she had died of illness in her previous life. Her daughter had been sent to Rongguo Province to be educated, which made her feel bitterly disappointed.
The two maids were very loyal. Even if they were worried about her health, they still obediently kept silent.
A few days later, her mother ordered Yuan Yang to tell her that she could marry Dingnan Houfu's son as she wished. Jia Min's heart, which had been tense since her rebirth, finally relaxed. She cried on the spot as if she was venting.
After her rebirth, Jia Min had always doubted her mother's intentions. But after this incident, she was very sure that her mother's love for her was not fake.
Although in her mother's heart, she was not as important as her mother's own interests and the future of Rongguo Province, and her daughter was not as important as her biological grandson who could restore her mother and the Jia family to their former glory.
After understanding Lady Jia Shi's thoughts, the resentment in Jia Min's heart disappeared.
At least now that Rongguo Province was still powerful, what she was worried about was unlikely to happen.
Maybe the obsession caused by her rebirth was completed. Jia Min, who had been immersed in the tragedy of her previous life, finally calmed down. She seriously recalled what she had done after her rebirth. Then, she felt terrible …
She actually shamelessly stole her sister's marriage!
"No!
If she has to marry into the Lin family, it can't be Third Sister who was originally living a happy life. This is not her destiny. "Jia Min quickly stood up." I have to change the marriage back! "
In her previous life, Third Sister not only had a title of nobility, but also treated her husband with respect. Both her children were outstanding.
How could such a person who should have been envied by everyone become a laughing stock because of her own selfish obsession?
If Third Sister really married Ruhai instead of her, wouldn't she be the culprit who harmed her?
Only the heavens knew that it was because she had been reborn too suddenly that she hadn't been able to adjust her state of mind. That was why she had wanted to replace her Third Sister, who she had always envied in her previous life. She wanted to use a scheme to steal her Third Sister's husband and obtain everything that all women envied.
Although she felt strange that Third Sister's husband in her previous life took the bait too quickly, she didn't have the energy to think about it again, whether it was before she calmed down or now when she realized her wish but regretted it.
But even when her mind was not clear, Jia Min never thought of hurting Third Sister who was related to her by blood.
The more she thought about it, the more guilty Jia Min felt. She turned around and was about to walk out, but because she was too anxious, she kicked the low couch and gasped in pain.
Jia Min's maid Huyu was awakened by the movement in the room. She quickly ran in and asked, "Miss, why are you up?"
She looked up outside the window. It was already late in the morning.
"Miss, did you have a nightmare?"
Huyu carefully held Jia Min's right hand and said, "Miss, please sit down first. I'll get you a cup of tea to calm down."
Jia Min hurriedly stopped her and asked, "Is Mother asleep now?"
Huyu was at a loss, but she still answered, "It's late. Madam should have already laid down and gone to bed."
Jia Min was anxious and didn't care about anything else. She still ordered Huyu, "Huyu, go to Mother's courtyard first. Maybe she hasn't gone to bed yet."
Huyu was affected by Jia Min's emotions. She thought something serious had happened. She helped Jia Min to a chair and was about to walk out.
"Wait!" Jia Min stopped her again and said, "I'll go with you."
Huyu panicked and said, "Miss, what are you doing?
Madam should have already gone to bed at this time. It's useless for you to go there. Why don't you stay in the room and wait for the news?
Don't you trust me?
I won't be lazy! "
If there were no accidents, Yuan Yang would be on night watch tonight.
"Even if Madam is really asleep, I will try to see Sister Yuan Yang to confirm it!" Huyu hurriedly promised, trying to dispel Jia Min's unreliable thoughts.
Jia Min was just thinking about it. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was the best way to do it. How could she listen to Huyu's dissuasion?
She didn't wait for Huyu and walked out of the room. Her destination was Madam Jia's courtyard.
Huyu called Jia Min. She didn't get any response from Jia Min, so she could only follow.
The moth Jia Su's antennae moved. It immediately flapped its wings and followed Jia Min.
In the darkness of the night, no one noticed this strange moth.
Jia Min and Huyu made too much noise. The maids who were sleeping in the servants' room were also disturbed. When they saw Jia Min and Huyu leaving, they quickly put on their clothes and wanted to chase after them. However, they were stopped by another senior maid, Po Yu.
Fortunately, because Madam Jia was old, Jia Daishan didn't rest in her room except on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month. This prevented Jia Min from disturbing her parents and even seeing her father when she went to find her mother.
Surprisingly, the candles in Madam Jia's courtyard were not extinguished.
When Madam Jia saw Jia Min, she said something surprising, "Min 'er, since you were married to Zhou Yu, mother has been waiting for you to come to me."
Jia Min and Zhou Yu's marriage was confirmed three days ago. In other words, Madam Jia had been waiting for Jia Min for three days and nights.
Jia Min looked at Madam Jia in astonishment. She found that she looked haggard and had dark circles under her eyes. It was true that she didn't sleep for several nights.
She opened her mouth and said timidly, "Mother …"
But Lin Ruhai was not there.
Mother Lin was there.
She had just met Mother Lin not long ago. How could she be so stupid as to forget her future boss?
Fortunately, after Mother Lin got on the carriage, she didn't show any dissatisfaction with her behavior today.
The specifications of the carriage were strictly regulated. The carriage used by an unmarried concubine's daughter like Jia Su was very simple and narrow. Even if she deliberately gave the most comfortable seat to Mother Lin and tried to reduce the space occupied, she still couldn't avoid physical contact between them.
Jia Su was fine, but Mother Lin had never sat in such a small carriage with anyone. For a moment, her whole body felt uncomfortable.
After a while, Mother Lin got used to it and smiled at Jia Su, "Third Miss, did you come here today to look for my son?"
Jia Su looked calm on the surface, but in her heart, she was crazily shouting, "I'm here, I'm here."
She nodded and held her breath. Her face was quickly dyed red, "Because I heard that Eldest Sister and Second Sister opened a cosmetics shop, so I wanted to take a look.
I just happened to pass by the Lin family, so I wanted to ask about Young Master Lin. "
But she didn't expect that Lin Ruhai wasn't home.
After she finished speaking, her eyes were filled with disappointment.
Mother Lin wasn't unhappy because Jia Su "didn't hide her concern for Lin Ruhai". On the contrary, she was very happy.
But soon, she frowned. As a mother, of course she should be happy to discover that her future daughter-in-law had deep feelings for her son. But Mother Lin couldn't help but feel distressed when her son made her own daughter-in-law sad.
After all, she also experienced this kind of situation, so she could especially understand Jia Su's feelings.
She simply pulled Jia Su's hand and patted it, "Third Miss, don't blame me. When Ruhai comes back, I will definitely teach him. He's about to be engaged, so he can't run around all day."
Jia Su lowered her head and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito, "En."
Mother Lin only thought she was shy, so she patted her hand again to comfort her.
Mother Lin was naturally unwilling at first when she found out that the marriage candidate had been changed to a concubine's daughter. Even though she later found out that her son was very satisfied with his fiancée, she couldn't help but feel worried.
She wasn't worried about the upbringing of a concubine's daughter.
She was still alive, so she could teach her how to manage the household. Moreover, she believed that she could teach her better than Madam Jia.
But she was worried about Jia Su's temperament.
As the daughter of the first wife, how could she not know the temperament of her concubine sisters?
Most of them weren't very likable.
Before she got married, she also learned from her mother that most of those concubine daughters were raised by the matriarchs to make it easier to control them after they got married.
Lin family didn't have many children, so Mother Lin didn't have the opportunity to practice. But she went out to socialize these years and saw many concubine daughters in big families. She only felt that they weren't much different from her concubine sisters and couldn't take on the responsibility of being the head of the family.
So when she heard that a young lady surnamed Jia had come to visit, she disregarded etiquette and went out, even riding in the same carriage as the third young lady.
The results of the test were good. She didn't know anything else, but at least the third young lady of the Jia family had a natural and unrestrained temperament and wasn't timid.
Jia Su also had her son's favor, so Mother Lin was naturally more satisfied with her.
