Chapter 86 FD Rongguo Mansion

Although there is no Rongguo Mansion and Ningguo Mansion is so awesome, the Lin family is a marquis of the Five Dynasties, so it is normal for a family to have their own old house in the capital. Even if Lin Ruhai's father was a prodigal son and even sold his hometown, look at Lin Ruhai's previous official position "Yangzhou Salt Censor", this is almost an official position that is not greedy. Lin Ruhai, who has a good income, can buy the old house back by himself; Lin Ruhai's family went to Yangzhou to live, and the Lin family's old house naturally became idle, but the so-called "idle" is definitely not empty, and there will be a few servants to guard the house and protect the house and clean it. As early as when he decided to resign, Lin Ruhai planned to return to the capital to live, so how could he forget to send someone to repair and organize the old house? To sum up, the old house of the Lin family does not have the so-called "big renovation", but you can definitely move in immediately, and you can definitely invite guests to live temporarily.

Faced with the invitation from Jia Mu to take action and then report, Lin Ruhai, the head of the Lin family, naturally could not "get home but go to the relatives' home to live with him." He was barely a member of the Ministry of Rites, where was his face left under someone else's roof? He was no longer busy, and he would not let Lin Daiyu live in Rongguo Mansion for a long time. The father and daughter are father and daughter, and relatives are relatives. No matter how close the relatives are, they can't match the father and daughter. He almost followed his first wife and cherished this belated family happiness.

Besides, he originally thought that his wife had died early and hoped that Mother Jia would raise him on behalf of him. He was sick before and had no time to tell him, but later he carefully considered it - a trick! The girl from the rich girl of the scholarly family did not move towards the direction of "the lady of a family", but instead moved towards the "Jade of a Little Family" route?! Did Mother Jia raise his precious daughter like this? If it weren't for Lin Ruhai Ji people who had their own appearance and had overcome this disaster, would the Lin family's last bloodline become a "depressed, pessimistic, sarcastic, and mean little girl"?

It was at the beginning that Lin Ruhai's favorability towards the Yue family plummeted. It was the same sentence: no matter how close relatives were, they would not have a daughter to kiss him. Even if Jia Mu did not intentionally, she would still cheat his daughter. Lin Ruhai would never push her daughter into the pit... Of course, she was dissatisfied and did not say that she wanted to break up this relative. She just took Lin Daiyu over and showed her face during festivals.

In this era, the word "filial piety" was the first. Old Mrs. Jia from Rongguo Mansion sent someone to pick them up for a long time. Even though she had the answer in her heart, Lin Ruhai still had to come to her door in person to show her filial piety, and then take her daughter back to the Lin family's old house to live.

However, thanks to Jia Mu's strong recruitment, the situation became too bad.

"—After seeing the extravagant and extravagant businessmen in Yangzhou and the morally degraded thin horses, today we should be able to see the Lord who specializes in cultivating playboys and corrupt officials, sooner or later, will never defeat all his family's wealth or confiscate his family's exile. Please feel it with your heart. I emphasize again that you are the best, and you don't need to deliberately imitate anyone." Leeds, who is educating his servants, has already made the reason for following him.

"Dad..." Lin Daiyu looked up at Lin Ruhai.

Although Lin Ruhai told Lin Daiyu a lot of things after careful investigation. For example, the Lin family is endless, and every year, he sends money to Rongguo Mansion to raise Lin Daiyu; for example, what should a real lady be like; for example, the many inappropriate things about Jia Baoyu's words and deeds; for example, the big house of Jia's family, under the help of Jia Mu, was squeezed out of the clan by the second house; for example, the excessive extravagance of the Jia family, and the relationship between the master and the servant is messy... However, after all, it was a place where Rongguo Mansion was so mocked, Lin Daiyu still felt very uncomfortable.

"...Don't listen if you are not polite." Lin Ruhai said dryly. Now he was only glad that the servants sent by Rongguo Mansion were leading the way in the front and could not hear the words behind him.

Lin Ruhai didn't know what he did in Yangzhou. The Yangzhou prefect who he was familiar with was found was searched for investigation because of them, and he was definitely a group of thorns.

If possible, Lin Ruhai would not want to bring this group of troublemakers into Rongguo Mansion, but in this situation, he still wants to rely on others to cure Lin Daiyu's illness!

A fellow Taoist who dies will not die.

"This is the 'Rongguo Mansion', which is worthy of being the place where the highest-level lords under the royal family live. It's really big." Leeds looked up at the plaque, looked at the extension distance of the wall left and right, and estimated its size.

"Hmph, not even one fifth of us, right?" Murong Jiu said with a lip of his lips.

"No, this is in the capital. You can't compare with the villa built in the valley... Not to mention that it is actually a place where 11 families live together, there are only two families here." Leeds, who was attacking his arrogant little wife, saw the slaves in the Jia family greeting them through the side gate of the West Corner, and he couldn't help but wonder, "Isn't this a main door? Why do we have to go in from the side?"

"Hmph~" It was obvious that there was no such custom inside, and Leeds' friends couldn't help but show quips.

"Captain Leeds doesn't know that this is the residence of the Duke. Unless there are festivals and major events, the main gate cannot be opened, and even the owner enters and leaves through the side gate." Lin Ruhai laughed in his heart, but in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he explained with all his heart.

"What a strange custom..." Leeds shrugged. Since it is a custom and it doesn't mean to look down on people deliberately.

After walking in through the side door, walking dozens of meters forward, a group of 17 or 18-year-old servants with beautiful eyes walked up to take over the job of the original mothers, who arranged for people to carry the gifts brought by Lin Ruhai.

Everyone followed the servants all the way through the hanging flower door and along the hand-pawning veranda to the hall. There was a marble screen on the rosewood shelf in front of them. Turning over the screen, there were three small halls, and behind the hall was the main courtyard. There were five upper rooms on the front of the courtyard, all of which were carved beams and painted buildings. On both sides, the wings of the mountain corridor were hung with various colors of parrots, thrushes and other birds, chirping non-stop.

There were a few maids wearing red and green on the steps of the main hall. They seemed to be frightened by Leeds and others behind them, but they still cleverly remembered their original work and stood up in a panic and shouted: "Sister-in-law Lin and Miss Cousin are here!"

As elders, Jia Mu would never come out to greet her. Lin Ruhai and Lin Daiyu hurriedly walked into the main hall, and then a burst of inquiries came.

Leeds wouldn't follow him any more than he was ignorant. Anyway, the people inside would come out sooner or later - in fact, a little kid wearing a red robe and a bunch of decorations hung on her body soon ran out.

Then,

"I've seen these sisters."
