Chapter 390 Fainting
What is now in front of Jia Lian is that Lin Ruhai is already sincerely choosing a husband for Daiyu.
If he doesn’t express something at this time, what else will he be waiting for?
Wait for Daiyu to fight on her own, wait for Daiyu to take the initiative to say that she likes him? It's impossible. With Daiyu's implicitness and tact, I'm afraid she won't be able to say the word "like" easily until she dies.
So, now is an opportunity.
With a plan in mind, Jia Lian immediately straightened his face and pretended that he had misunderstood Lin Ruhai's intention.
“Reporting to my uncle, my nephew has indeed never taken in any concubine.
It’s just because my nephew is obsessed with fame and is not willing to be easily trapped by his children’s personal affairs. .
Since my uncle mentioned it today, my nephew boldly begged my uncle to marry Sister Lin to me. My nephew is willing to spend his whole life to protect and take care of Sister Lin and will never let her suffer any more. I'm wronged!"
Jia Lian said, gently lifting the hem of his robe in front of him, and kneeling solemnly in front of Lin Ruhai's bed.
……
“Girl, Mr. Lian is here to visit!”
In the corridor of the backyard where Lin Ruhai was recovering from illness, Daiyu took advantage of Zi Cuckoo and other maids did not pay attention and sneaked here secretly.
She thought about the voice of the girl announcing earlier, but when she actually came here, she hesitated again.
Although she was reluctant, she also knew that her father was worried about her marriage.
At this time, Jia Lian had just arrived at the house, and she couldn't wait to run over. If her father saw something, she would be ashamed to death.
Even if his father didn’t see anything, Brother Lian was a thief and a thief, so he couldn’t let him underestimate him!
I have been there for more than half a year. After such a long time, if he was serious, he should have come to see me instead of me looking for him.
Even though she was thinking this way, she still walked towards Lin Ruhai's ward step by step.
If not, just hide here and see what the second brother Lian said to his father?
I can’t let my father catch me anymore.
I was caught eavesdropping on the conversation between my father and the housekeeper before. It would be embarrassing if I were caught again now.
With sufficient mental preparation, Daiyu, like a nimble fairy, easily touched the side of the Nuan Pavilion and listened to the conversation inside through the wooden lattice screen.
She was sure that from this position she could definitely hear what was said inside!
But as soon as she calmed down, she had no time to think about anything else.
Jia Lian’s familiar and touching voice immediately reached her ears.
“Since my uncle mentioned it today, my nephew boldly begged my uncle to marry Sister Lin to me. My nephew is willing to spend his whole life to protect and take care of Sister Lin and will never let her suffer any more grievances. ."
Daiyu's beautiful brows couldn't help but frown, and the expression on her face was all frozen at the previous moment.
It’s really brother Lian inside. What is he talking about?
Daiyu, who was afraid that she was hallucinating, forced herself to calm down, but she couldn't do it at all.
It wasn’t until she realized that there was silence inside that she came back to her senses. She raised a small hand and suddenly covered her heart.
At that moment, Daiyu herself didn’t know what was wrong with her. She only felt a white light dazzling between the sky and the earth, and her heart seemed to be cast by a spell. It shook uncontrollably, as if she wanted to It's like jumping out of her body!
She was originally prepared to eavesdrop for a long time, but she straightened her posture without realizing it, and kept leaning on the wall pillar with one hand. When she looked back, her face remained the same, with tears streaming down her face.
In the room, Lin Ruhai looked at Jia Lian silently, with the expression on his face ranging from surprise, to shock, to anger.
It took him a long time before he managed to make a cold voice: "Do you know what you are talking about?"
Although Lin Ruhai felt that he should be angry, However, due to being bedridden due to illness for several months, he was already lacking in energy. And he himself is also a gentle and gentle person, so much so that when he is angry, he sounds quiet.
"If I hadn't always regarded you as my nephew, as you just said, Lin should also order someone to drive you out of the house.
Could it be that Hou Do you think the Lin family is weak and can be bullied, so you come here to bully me?"
Although Lin Ruhai's voice was weak, Jia Lian did not dare to look down on her.
He knows that success or failure depends on this one move, and he must make every effort to achieve peace of mind.
"My uncle has misunderstood, and my nephew has no intention of doing so.
My nephew has always admired his uncle's talent and learning, admired his diligent work and caring for the people when he was an official, and has always been in his heart. Treat your uncle as your eldest relative.
As for what my nephew wants, there is no falsehood at all. Every word comes from the sincerity. I hope my uncle will take pity on me and give my nephew a chance to express himself."
"Opportunity?
Humph, could it be that you are willing to divorce that Wang family and marry you?Sister Lin? "
Lin Ruhai tried hard to make a sarcastic expression, but found that she couldn't, so she could only give up bitterly.
Jia Lian was silent after hearing this.
Lin Ruhai did not push at this time, he also wanted to see what Jia Lian would say.
"Although my nephew and the Wang family are a family marriage. But in the years since she married into my family, year after year, day after day, she has served my elders filially, and she has never done anything to feel sorry for me.
The nephew did not dare to lie to his uncle. If he was asked to divorce the Wang family, he would really not be able to do it.
But my nephew definitely did not mean to look down on Sister Lin.
The younger generation can swear an oath to my uncle. Although I cannot give Sister Lin the position of the first wife, on the day when I marry her, I will certainly follow the rules of three letters and six etiquettes, carry eight sedan chairs, invite relatives and friends, and bring her to the house. Carry it into the house.
From now on, treat each other with the courtesy of a true wife, and I will never let her down in this life. If anyone violates this oath, you can call me, Jia Lian, to cut off all your official titles and overthrow your family business. ”
Lin Ruhai also fell silent.
To be honest, Jia Lian’s behavior was completely beyond his expectation. For a moment, he didn’t know how to deal with it. Subconsciously, he said the question he just asked.
But looking at Jia Lian, who had been kneeling quietly in front of him, with a firm face and solemn words, even Lin Ruhai felt that Jia Lian's posture , He really did a good job.
With his current status as a Marquis, he was willing to kneel down to him, and he made such a sincere, but not exaggerated, decision. It’s a vow made from the heart.
Will all his official titles be cut off and his family fortune be overthrown? Could it be that he really really likes Yu’er?
Also, he really guessed it right , Yu'er also admires him?
If so, this killing is really hateful.
Lin Ruhai cursed in his heart. With his wisdom, he naturally understood that if Jia Lian and Dai Jade is really in love with each other, it must be Jia Lian who deliberately seduced him through his entrustment!
I don’t know if he has ever bullied his own daughter.
Lin Ruhai’s heart was filled with hatred, and she regretted her decision to entrust her daughter to Jia Lian’s care.
“Well... you get up first. ”
Lin Ruhai, who really didn’t know what to say, tried to get Jia Lian to stand up.
The other party’s posture made him embarrassed to say more heartless words.
Lin Ruhai’s tactful tone made Jia Lian understand that a gentleman canThe truth of deceiving others is indeed not a lie, so naturally he will not follow his words, but continues: "Sister Lin is fragile, and my nephew also knows it.
After marrying her, my nephew He will do his best to hire famous doctors for her, even if he spends all his money, he will try his best to cure her.
Uncle, don’t worry about your nephew not being able to do it. His parents died early. If Sister Lin marries I don’t have any parents-in-law to serve, and the old lady is Sister Lin’s closest relative’s grandmother, so I won’t intentionally bully her.
Therefore, when Sister Lin comes to our house, my uncle doesn’t have to worry about what will happen to her. Grievance.
As long as I am here, no one dares to give her the grievance."
Jia Lian said so categorically that Lin Ruhai suddenly realized.
That’s true, before, he was worried that after he was gone, Daiyu would have nothing to rely on and would be bullied by her husband’s family.
If it were Jia Lian, he would not have such concerns.
With Jia Lian’s ability, no one except his biological parents can punish him, so what he said is true. As long as Jia Lian is sincere to Yu’er, he really doesn’t have to worry about Yu’er marrying him. Then he was wronged.
Seeing Lin Ruhai thoughtfully, Jia Lian took advantage of the victory and said: "Besides, my nephew has another idea.
If my uncle doesn't mind, my nephew has already planned it. After Sister Lin marries me, the first boy I have with Sister Lin can be adopted into the Lin family, and he will be recognized as his great-grandfather, and from then on he will inherit the legacy of the Lin family."
This was Jia Lian's early days. What he was thinking of might be one of his plans that could impress Lin Ruhai.
As a person of later generations, he is far inferior to those of the past when it comes to bloodline inheritance. There is no thought of favoring sons over daughters, and it is absolutely impossible for a son to take his mother's surname.
Therefore, when he was in Yangzhou and saw the greedy heirs of the Lin family, Jia Lian was naturally not polite and easily made Lin Ruhai temporarily give up the idea of having a step-heir.
No wonder Jia Lian looked down upon her so much, but he knew how difficult it was to marry Daiyu without wanting to divorce Wang Xifeng.
There weren’t many things he could think of that could impress Lin Ruhai.
Now that we have taken action, we naturally have to go all out.
In fact, before Jia Lian spoke, he had thought that since Lin Ruhai was already so ill, it was better to wait. After Lin Ruhai returned from illness, Daiyu would be left alone, and the difficulty of marrying him would naturally be reduced. .
But he just thought about it and rejected it.
If you don’t say that, it is suspected of taking advantage of others, just say that, he is nowWe must find a way to stop Lin Ruhai from choosing a son-in-law for Daiyu!
This is no longer about taking advantage of someone else's danger, but already being suspected of being a villain, and Jia Lian disdains it.
The most important thing is that Jia Lian does not want to wrong Daiyu.
Life-long events are completely different with parents’ blessing and without parents’ blessing.
Daiyu was about to suffer the pain of bereavement, and he did not want her to suffer any further injustice.
Therefore, if you want to marry, just say it openly. Even if Lin Ruhai refuses in the end, he will not regret it.
"Do you really mean what you said?" Lin Ruhai opened his eyes wide.
He felt a little incredible.
Is Jia Lian willing to adopt his and Yu'er's child, or the first one, to the Lin family to pass on the incense to the Lin family? Consider him your grandfather?
Doesn’t this mean that the yin and yang of the Jia family and the Lin family are reversed? Can the Jia family agree?
Well, it seems that with Jia Lian’s current status in the Jia Mansion, if this is really the case, it is really possible.
But why on earth is Jia Lian willing to do this?
Are you really so devoted to Yu'er that you would even give up your family's reputation for this? Lin Ruhai did not think that Jia Lian was interested in her daughter's appearance.
With Jia Lian’s current status, what kind of beautiful woman doesn’t exist?
Never seen before, even the most proud princess favored him.
So, Lin Ruhai could only think this way.
He is different from Jia Lian. He is well aware of the importance attached to bloodline by people at that time, especially for a public institution like Rongguo Mansion that has been passed down for hundreds of years!
Thinking about it, even he couldn't let his son inherit the incense for other people's family.
When I think about my understanding of Jia Lian again, I feel that he would not deliberately deceive him just to marry Yu'er.
Therefore, Lin Ruhai had to admit in his heart that for a moment, his heart moved.
But he, Lin Ruhai, was after all a close minister of the emperor, and had seen some storms, so he was not easily instigated.
He moved his hands slightly and said solemnly: "Since you said it so clearly, it shows that you have a plan in your heart.
I also believe that what you are saying at this moment, Maybe they are all sincere.
However, this cannot conceal the fact that you want your sister Lin to be your concubine.
Although my Lin family is in decline now, it is not If you want your legitimate daughter to marry someone else as a concubine, then give up.”
Lin Ruhai said, looking carefully into Jia Lian's eyes.
Jia Lian’s expression remained unchanged, as if he had expected it.
"What my uncle said is what my nephew said before, and he boldly asked my uncle to give my nephew a chance to express his love.
Thank you very much for your uncle's willingness to listen to me. My nephew said this, but he didn't kick him out at the beginning. Now that my nephew has said what he should say, if my uncle still can't agree in the end, my nephew will naturally not dare to force it.
I myself He believes that the relationship between the Lin family and the Jia family is not comparable to that of other families. He also believes that even if Sister Lin is not able to marry her today, the Lin and Jia families are still close relatives.
Uncle, don’t worry, even if Although I have no relationship with Sister Lin, I am still Sister Lin’s cousin, Sister Lin, and I still call my father uncle.
So, from now on, I will still take care of and care for Sister Lin as always. .
Even if God is unkind and forces Sister Lin to abandon my uncle, I will do my best to protect Sister Lin from being bullied by others for the rest of my life.
On this point, Uncle Your Excellency, you don’t have to worry about sister Lin getting into trouble in the Jia family in the future because of me.”
Once Lin Ruhai dies of illness, Daiyu will only have Jia’s mother as her closest relative. Therefore, before Daiyu leaves the imperial court, she must be raised by Jia Mu's side as before. Both Jia Lian and Lin Ruhai know this.
“Although my nephew doesn’t think he is a hero, he thinks he is proud and will not do anything mean.
Therefore, uncle, there is no need to worry, In the future, my nephew will take advantage of my uncle's absence to do anything against his wishes.
On the contrary, if my uncle is serious about choosing a son-in-law for Sister Lin, I can guarantee that I can take care of it for my uncle during my lifetime. Don't let your husband's family bully Sister Lin.
If my uncle doesn't have the energy to choose a son-in-law for Sister Lin now, my nephew and the old lady of the family will try their best to choose a noble family in the future and give Sister Lin A beautiful wedding."
Jia Lian tried to keep calm, but in the middle of speaking, his face still showed a slight look of desolation.
In this way, even Lin Ruhai couldn't help but be moved by Jia Lian's sincerity.
It’s just that the indifferent words have just been spoken, and it’s hard for him to say anything nice now. But in my heart, a trace of guilt suddenly flashed across my heart, was it for Jia Lian?
This made Lin Ruhai feel very helpless after noticing it.
Why does it seem like he is an inhumane villain?
But Jia Lian described the scene so beautifully, he, a second-grade officialDon't be too embarrassed. Just when you were about to say something, you suddenly heard the voice of the maid outside:
"Hey, is it the lady...ah~ come here quickly, the lady fainted !!”
When Jia Lian heard this, he jumped up from the ground and rushed out of the Nuan Pavilion in a few quick steps.
This made Lin Ruhai, who had just become nervous and stretched out his hand to ask loudly, a little stunned. The arm he raised also froze in mid-air and could not fall down for a long time.
