Chapter 69 069 Reminiscing about the past Do I need a reason to hate someone? ...
The Lin family arrived two days after the Wang family received the letter. As usual, they were very punctual and courteous. They brought gifts to greet the Wang family and chatted with them in a natural and intimate manner, which was very pleasant.
Although their Lin family and Wang family do not have as direct and close blood relationship as the Jia family, there is at least the aunt-niece relationship between the old lady of the Wang family and Jia Min. In addition, both sides recognize each other's character, so they can barely be considered real relatives.
In fact, even if there is no blood relationship, as long as the person is right, the relationship will definitely be in place.
Lin Ruhai is indeed a scholar who was raised in a family of five generations of marquises and scholars. He has high IQ and EQ, and elegant conversation. No matter what topic you talk to him about, it will make you feel like you are in spring breeze.
Whether it's a rough guy like Wang Ziteng who joined the army in his early years, or a young man from a wealthy family like Wang Yao who was raised in a luxurious environment and learned to be a dandy, Lin Ruhai can chat with them very well. This is not something that ordinary people can do.
I heard that he was like this in the Jia family too. He talked about literary ideals with Jia Zheng, about elegant things with Jia She, about immortals and Taoism with Jia Jing... There was really no topic he couldn't talk about, and no conversation he couldn't pick up.
I guess only a person like this can raise a girl like Lin Daiyu.
In comparison, Jia Min is far inferior.
Of course, this doesn't mean she isn't excellent.
Among the female guests, Jia Min's personality is not much different from Lin Ruhai's personality among the male guests. Logically, she should be as popular as Lin Ruhai.
But unfortunately, her luck was not as good as Lin Ruhai's. The main reason was that she had a mother like Jia Mu as a burden, which directly reduced her points to the maximum.
Originally, the old lady of the Wang family still remembered how clever Jia Min was when she was a child, and she had a good impression of her. But in the end, the negative impact of Jia's mother, who had been her mortal enemy and opposed her for so many years, was even greater, and her little good impression soon disappeared.
From the fake sister-in-law relationship between the two of them when the old lady of the Wang family was still a girl from the Rongguo Mansion before she got married, to the various overt and covert comparisons between the two ladies from equally powerful aristocratic families after the old lady of the Wang family got married.
These two sisters-in-law have been at loggerheads with each other all their lives. After half of their lives have passed, it is natural that they dislike each other's children when they look at them again.
Just as Lady Wang, the biological daughter of the old lady of the Wang family, was not well received as a daughter-in-law by Lady Jia, Jia Min, the daughter of Lady Jia, was not very welcome as a guest at the old lady's place.
Even though Mrs. Wang was a famously forthright person when she was young, and Jia Min is now a gentle and elegant lady, it is all of no use.
If you hate someone's mother, you can't possibly like his or her daughter.
It has nothing to do with the daughter's temperament, character, or personal situation.
If I hate you, I hate you. Do I need any reason?
Mrs. Wang discovered this and gradually turned herself into an ordinary mediocre woman with no light in her eyes.
Jia Min obviously also discovered this, but what makes her better than Mrs. Wang is that she sees through it but never speaks it out loud, and does not get upset at all - maybe she is very upset in her heart, but it does not show at all on the surface, this is her ability.
No wonder her reputation is better than Mrs. Wang's.
Of course, this may also be related to the fact that she did not have much plot in the original book and died early - people always tend to beautify the dead.
If she had lived to Lady Wang's age and watched Daiyu and the younger brother of the Lin family grow up, she might have become a mediocre and hateful woman like Lady Wang.
But there is no if. Now she is still young, still has a charming smile, and a gentle and amiable personality. Even if her aunt, the old lady of the Wang family, embarrasses her on the spot, she is not angry, and still smiles and chats with the atmosphere. It's really admirable.
Xianyu took a quick look at the seemingly harmonious but actually turbulent movements of the female relatives and felt deeply bored. She immediately couldn't help but want to escape.
But unfortunately, this was a scene for receiving guests, and it would be impolite for her, the second young lady of the Wang family, to leave rashly.
If she didn’t feel like escaping, Xianyu would really feel like she would be bored to death.
She was wondering what excuse she could make to leave. Fortunately, at this moment, Sister Feng pulled Xiao Daiyu over and asked Xianyu to take Xiao Daiyu out for a walk. This finally saved her life.
This kind of boring social occasion really drains one's energy. Even though Xianyu doesn't have to do anything, she is so bored that she almost falls asleep.
But it’s different when I accompany little Daiyu out for a walk.
Not to mention that going out for a walk is definitely more interesting than staying in the house, just accompanying little Daiyu is fun enough.
So, she doesn’t hate children at all, she just hates naughty children... Yes, I’m talking about the type like Jia Baoyu.
Although little Daiyu is young, she is smarter and more insightful than many adults. She has no obstacles in speaking and communicating, and can even make people laugh. How can anyone not like her?
Anyway, Xianyu likes her very much, and Fengjie obviously does too, otherwise, she wouldn't be so eager to act cute in front of the old lady of the Wang family and Jia Min, and she had to bring little Daiyu out to play...
Unfortunately, the affairs of the Wang family have always been inseparable from Sister Feng. After she brought little Daiyu out, she hurried back to take care of the guests and could not leave at all.
Then Xianyu had to play with Xiao Daiyu alone - I have to say, it was quite fun this way.
Today is also a day for me to happily enjoy Lin Daiyu alone.
Xianyu smiled brilliantly, took Xiao Daiyu with her and went out, her face full of happiness.
Little Daiyu was very happy to drive it, which made her face look even more rosy and energetic.
Xianyu was very satisfied with her physical condition. She also took a closer look at this fairy-like little sister. She was indeed very pleasing to the eyes.
Today, Xiao Daiyu is still dressed very beautifully. The crimson embroidered satin bodice matches the light green crepe skirt. The material and embroidery are both excellent, and the color matching is also very novel and special. It is really eye-catching and makes people sigh what a beautiful girl.
To be honest, most people can't stand this red and green color combination, but little Daiyu is different. This color combination makes her face look rosy and her figure look slim, just like a little fairy.
Xianyu was so pleased that she did not hesitate to praise her. She even made little Daiyu feel embarrassed.
At this time, Xianyu's personal maids Xi'er and Le'er came to pay their respects, saying that the osmanthus, chrysanthemums, begonias and purple jalapas in the garden were all in bloom, and invited Miss Xi and Miss Lin to go for a walk in the garden to appreciate the flowers and relieve their boredom.
The two sisters walked hand in hand in the garden. It was still a long way from dinner time, so there was no rush.
As Xiao Daiyu walked, she chatted with Xianyu, talking about what had happened since they separated in Jinling City.
It's mainly about their younger brother's medical treatment. This is the first big event in the Lin family in the past two months. It's something that can't be ignored and can't be stopped once it's talked about.
Xianyu had seen the younger brother of the Lin family when she was staying at the Lin family's home in Gusu City before. She knew that although the child was young, he was very smart and polite. He looked exactly like little Daiyu, making it hard not to like him or feel pity for him.
Therefore, when listening to little Daiyu talking about the younger brother of the Lin family's treatment of illnesses, Xianyu listened with great interest and asked a few questions from time to time. It was truly a very immersed conversation.
I only heard Xiao Daiyu say: "Sister Xian, you don't know, at that time our Mo'er's face turned pale and he was out of breath, our wife was so scared that she couldn't stand, so I went to support Mo'er and wait for Mr. Zhang to give him acupuncture..."
Xiao Daiyu was talking about the initial diagnosis that Zhang Youshi gave to the younger brother of the Lin family. It turned out that he used acupuncture. Unexpectedly, Zhang Youshi was so courageous that he just did it.
He is the only son in the Lin family for several generations. If he does this, someone might die.
Should we say that he is worthy of being a man of great skill and courage?
After such drastic measures, it turned out to be effective - so, was it because the previous doctors were afraid of causing harm to the child and did not dare to do it, so the effect was not good?
Sure enough, medical skills are also related to personality and courage...
While listening to Xiao Daiyu's description of the treatment process, Xianyu secretly complained, but of course she did not miss the opportunity to appreciate the flowers - although the Wang family's garden was not as gorgeous or elegant as those of the Jia and Lin families, it also had its own charm.
After all, the Wang family is a prominent family with several generations of history, so naturally they have their own unique features.
Even a girl like Xiao Daiyu, who came from a wealthy family in Gusu and had seen a lot of the world, couldn't help but be amazed, and time naturally passed very quickly.
Just when the two of them were preparing to compose two poems towards the cluster of the most blooming begonias, Xier and Leer came running over to greet them.
It turned out that it was time for dinner so soon. As there were guests at home today, they didn't want to keep them waiting for a long time, so Xianyu and Xiao Daiyu followed the maids and walked back in a hurry. As a result, they met a person halfway on the way.
