Chapter 459 The style of a big lady in the C-word volume
“Brother Feng is still talking to someone?” Daiyu stood at the door and asked softly Zicuckoo who had just returned from outside the house.
"Well, when I came back in the afternoon, Uncle Feng and Mr. Duan talked for a while and then hurried out. It is said that they went to visit the prefect of Linqing Prefecture. Then after they came back, someone came after dinner and kept talking, and then it was Mr. Duan again. Went in,…”
Zijuan curled her lips, "I feel like Uncle Feng has been even busier since he came back than in the capital city. People came one after another. In the afternoon, people from the Ren family and the Zhou family came to visit. Later, there were also Shanshan Guild Hall and The visitor from the Huizhou Guild Hall has been here for half a day, and the girl doesn’t even have time to go see him..."
"Damn girl, stop gossiping behind your back. If you keep doing this,..." Daiyu lowered her face, "Brother Feng is a manly man and has ambitions in all directions. If he spends all his time in the closet, wouldn't he be like the second brother Bao? How can he make great achievements? "
Zicuckoo stuck out her tongue and said, "My little maid knows that I am wrong, but how can Uncle Feng have so many things to do? He is a editor at the Hanlin Academy and not a local official. Does he need to receive and visit so many people?"
"What do you know?" Daiyu raised her head arrogantly, "The more Hanlin Academy officials come to the local area, the local officials will come to make friends. It's just that Brother Feng is too young and has too little qualifications now. Otherwise, it would have been the magistrates and magistrates who came to pay him a visit..."
"As for the others, the Feng family is a prominent gentry family in Linqing, and Brother Feng is the only legitimate son of the Feng family. Uncle Feng has been away guarding the border for many years and it is difficult to come back. The return of Brother Feng is actually equivalent to the return of the head of the Feng family. Moreover, Brother Feng is a scholar selected by the Imperial Academy and has become a editor of the Hanlin Academy. He is also considered a leader among Shandong scholars. A scholarly family like the Ren family and the Zhou family will naturally come to visit him."
Daiyu paused for a moment, not without pride, "Back then, my father was a royal censor in Yangzhou, and sometimes he would go on tours. From Jining to Jinling, no matter where he went, local government officials would come to visit him. Officials with high moral standards, My father also wants to visit him. This is also the way to be an official. My father is also a Jinshi. In the past, many of his classmates in the same year served as officials in various places, so naturally they have to communicate with each other..."
What he said was so logical that even Jia Lian, who was just about to enter, couldn't help but nod.
No wonder Dalang said he wanted to marry this sister Lin, and sister Lin also looked down on Baoyu.
I was a little misled, and thought that Sister Lin had been cowardly and cowardly after staying in Jia's house for so many years, but she turned out to be inconspicuous. What could an ordinary woman say like this?
Without this insight, it would be difficult to understand why Feng Ziying was so busy as soon as she returned home. She even had to eat in the study.
Jia Lian coughed lightly at the door before knocking on the door.
“Second brother Lian.”
"Sister, have you had your meal?" Jia Lian came in and asked with a friendly look and concern.
"Have you eaten? Brother Lian has eaten too, right?" Daiyu also had a good impression of Jia Lian. On the one hand, it was because Jia Lian and Feng Ziying had always had a very close relationship. On the other hand, as her cousin, Jia Lian's impression was far better. Yu Baoyu is not like Baoyu who always waits for death to beg for nothing and comes to the house to pester him.
“Well, this is my first time here, but the food is no different from that in the capital.” Jia Lian nodded.
Daiyu and Zijuan were both a little surprised. What was the second brother Lian doing in the house? Saying these words without salt and taste...
Jia Lian is also considering his words. He will go to Dongchang Mansion tomorrow. Feng Ziying has already told him about his marriage. If there is no accident, then Feng's family will marry the legitimate daughter of Shen Jue, the prefect of Dongchang Mansion.
I'm afraid this matter will have to be resolved in these two days, because the court will officially issue the document within these days, and the Ministry of Rites will also agree that Feng Ziying can also occupy the eldest house where his uncle lives, so as to continue the incense.
Feng Ziying also told him that his teacher Qiao Yingjia had also written to negotiate with Shen Jue. As long as the court heard from him, the Feng family would formally send gifts and get engaged, and even agree on a date for the wedding.
Feng Ziying vaguely mentioned this situation to Daiyu, but did not mention it clearly. Even on that day, it was mentioned in one sentence. Naturally, Daiyu did not want to ask deeply. Seeing that this kind of thing could not be delayed any longer, Feng Ziying Someone is needed to explain it tactfully for him, so that if Daiyu accidentally learns about it tomorrow, she will not be irritated.
Of course the best candidate is the tool man Jia Lian.
Seeing Jia Lian sit down, he looked hesitant, as if he had something to say but couldn't find the right words. Daiyu was so sensitive that she immediately understood, "Brother Lian, do you have something to say?" Do you need Zicuckoo to go out?"
Jia Lian was startled for a moment and then shook his head, "No need, my sister Hui Zhilan Xin, maybe she can guess what my brother is going to say?"
"That's not the case." Jia Lian shook his head honestly, "It's just that I have talked a lot with Da Lang in the past few days, and Da Lang has not hidden anything in front of my brother, so I also want to talk to my sister."
"What about the sister of the Shen family?" Daiyu said calmly.
"Huh?" Jia Lian was surprised. Feng Ziying said that Daiyu should know about the eldest wife, but did not say that Daiyu also knew about his intention to marry the daughter of the Shen family. "Does the younger sister know?"
"Brother Feng didn't hide much from me, but he was probably afraid that I would make his little temper angry or sad, so he never told me in person. In fact, my little sister already knew..." Daiyu's expression didn't change much, even a little bit... Er was curious, "When it was said that Brother Feng and his uncle were pursuing the title of nobility, and that Brother Feng might want to take over the family, my little sister was thinking about it, but she didn't expect that it would be the Shen sister..."
"Ah? Do you know the Shen girl?" Jia Lian was stunned. He probably didn't even know Feng Ziying, right?
"No, Brother Lian is wrong. My little sister doesn't know Sister Shen, but that doesn't mean that she doesn't know Sister Shen." Lin Daiyu chuckled, "Brother Lian probably doesn't know about my father, Uncle Shen and Feng My eldest brother’s teacher, Mr. Qiao and Uncle Qiao, are actually Jinshi in the same subject, right?”
"Ah?!" Jia Lian was stunned again. He really didn't know about this. He only knew that Qiao Yingjia, who had been promoted to the left deputy censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, was Feng Ziying's teacher and supporter, but he didn't know that Qiao Yingjia, Lin Ruhai, and Shen Jue all He is a Jinshi in the same subject.
"How did my sister know about it?" Jia Lian didn't believe that Feng Ziying knew that Lin Daiyu knew that her eldest wife's marriage partner said that the Shen family daughter did not tell him. It should be that he didn't know that Lin Daiyu knew about it, so he hinted in such an embarrassing way. Find opportunities to help him clarify things tactfully.
"Hehe, Brother Lian, are you surprised?" Lin Daiyu has a delicate mind, and her ability to observe people's emotions is even more extraordinary. She has already guessed some clues, "I'm afraid Brother Feng doesn't even know about this situation, right?"
Jia Lian couldn't figure out how Lin Daiyu knew about this situation. If Feng Ziying hadn't let it slip without knowing it, he couldn't imagine how a girl like Lin Daiyu, who stayed at home, knew that Feng Ziying was pregnant. Is the eldest son’s marriage partner Shen Jue’s daughter?
Could it be that Zijuan went to Feng Mansion and learned from the girls Jinchuaner and Xiangling? But do Jin Chuaner and Xiang Ling know this? This is no longer certain.
Jia Lian shook his head and didn't bother to speculate anymore, "Sister knows, then Brother Yu will feel relieved. He was originally worried..."
"Second Brother Lian, I understand Brother Feng's kindness, and I am very grateful, but Brother Feng underestimates me too much." Daiyu looked calm and composed at this time, and the clear elegance between her eyebrows showed her demeanor. "Everyone has their own destiny for marriage. Don't force it. I have heard about Sister Shen's personality, and it is also very good. Being able to marry into the Feng family's house is also a blessing for Sister Shen, and it is also very good for Brother Feng. Okay, I believe Brother Feng has his own arrangements..."
Jia Lian felt that he was originally here to clarify and enlighten, but now he was just like a small family. He smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Brother Yu also admires my sister for her magnanimity. If Ziying has a sister to take charge of the palace for him, he will definitely be able to go to court with peace of mind. An official career will bring great fortune..."
Daiyu's cheeks were hot, and she was almost defeated by Jia Lian's words.
Originally, she mustered up the courage to hold on, not letting Brother Lian and Brother Feng underestimate her, but she really had no experience and was too young, so she thought that if she wanted to win the respect of Brother Lian and Brother Feng, she would do it. You have to show your magnanimity.
It’s just that it’s so hard to hold up the scene and have to think carefully about your words, and I’m afraid of being seen through.
"Second Brother Lian is a compliment. My little sister is just speaking out from the bottom of her own mind, so she doesn't deserve anything." Daiyu paused, "If Brother Feng asks anything again, Second Brother Lian might as well convey it to Feng." Brother, please don’t worry, Brother Feng, just do things according to his own ideas..."
Jia Lian finally left. Daiyu suddenly collapsed and sat on the brocade stool, holding her hands on the table. Zijuan's eyes were full of approval and she couldn't help but support her girl.
"Girl, what you said is so good. Mr. Lian is obviously Uncle Feng's lobbyist. He is afraid that the marriage of the eldest son will make the girl upset and resentful. Huh, I don't dare to come and talk to the girl, but I asked Mr. Lian to come. It’s just too fancy,…”
"Silly girl, how can you blame Brother Feng for this?" A look of shame and joy flashed across Daiyu's face, "It would be the same even if it were someone else in a family like his. There are three types of unfilial piety, and the worst is not having children. What's more, the Feng family has three families and only one family."
Daiyu knew it in her heart. If Brother Feng didn't care about her so much, why would he bother to explain it like this?
You can tell yourself whenever you find an opportunity.
But the more he dares not to make it clear, the more it shows that he cares about himself and is afraid that he will not understand and feel uncomfortable. But is he that kind of person?
Thinking of this, Daiyu felt a touch of sweetness in her heart.
