Quick Wear: I've never been a good person

Chapter 510: Welcoming Spring in the Red Mansion (22)

When Jia She saw him like this, his face changed instantly. He no longer cared about anything else and followed Lin Zhong and rushed inside quickly.

Shuangshuang looked at Jia Cong and quickly followed.

When we arrived at Lin Ruhai's main courtyard, we saw servants running around in a hurry all the way.

There were even people holding funeral items and making preparations there.

It is obvious that Lin Ruhai has reached the end of his life.

When Jia She lifted the door curtain and walked in, he saw Daiyu feeding Lin Ruhai medicine.

Seeing Jia She suddenly appear, Lin Ruhai was obviously relieved, and his half-closed eyes opened instantly.

"Brother, you are here?"

Jia She looked at Lin Ruhai's pale face and the fact that he couldn't speak clearly, and he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart.

He lifted his robe and ran over eagerly.

"Brother-in-law, how are you doing?"

Lin Ruhai shook his head and said, "Thank you for your concern, uncle.

I'm sure I won't be able to survive this.

Everything else is fine, but as for my daughter Daiyu, I beg you, my elder brother, to take good care of her in the future."

Jia She looked at Lin Ruhai seriously and nodded slowly.

"Don't worry, I will take good care of Daiyu for you from now on!"

When Lin Ruhai heard that Jia She agreed, he breathed a sigh of relief.

What he has always been concerned about is Daiyu, his only blood relative, and he is worried that if he dies, no one will be able to protect him.

Now that my uncle has agreed, he will definitely protect her.

As for the rumors about his previous recklessness, Lin Ruhai had certainly heard of them.

But he absolutely did not believe that the man who could be the prince's companion and be given the title of Marquis of En by the Supreme Emperor himself could be a useless gangster.

He slowly instructed Daiyu.

"Yu'er, kowtow to your uncle. From now on, everything you have will be left to him."

Daiyu obediently put down the medicine bowl and kowtowed respectfully to Jia She.

Jia She waited until she finished one and moved on to the second one, then bent down and helped her up.

"Good boy, no need to be so polite!

When you go to your uncle's house, you can play with your cousin."

Lin Ruhai glanced at Lin Zhong with a distracted look, and Lin Zhong understood and bent down slightly and left.

Soon he came in again, followed by two servants, carrying a large vermilion box.

Lin Ruhai raised his chin slightly and motioned him to open the box.

Inside were several rosewood boxes.

Lin Zhong took out the largest sealed box from inside, on which were stamped the seal of the Salt Inspector and Lin Ruhai's private seal.

He took out a memorial from his bosom and said, "I need the help of my eldest uncle to present this box and memorial to the emperor on my behalf."

Jia She took the big box and felt the weight inside it, and a huge wave of fear surged in his heart.

I remember in the dream, the emperor suddenly made Yuanchun a concubine and allowed her to visit her parents.

So much so that the Jia family spent several million taels of silver to build the Grand View Garden.

As for where the silver came from, those who didn’t know might think it was the savings accumulated by the Rongguo Mansion over the years.

Only they themselves knew that the Rongguo Mansion had been living beyond its means for many years.

So the emperor later raided the Rongguo Mansion because he knew that the Jia family had embezzled the silver that Lin Ruhai was supposed to give him?

He handed the box to Achun who was following beside him and made a solemn promise to Lin Ruhai.

"Brother-in-law, don't worry. I will personally present this box and memorial to the Emperor! It will never pass through anyone else's hands!"

Lin Ruhai nodded slightly and looked at Lin Zhong again.

Lin Zhong took out another box and opened it to show Jia She.

It was filled with banknotes and land deeds, and on top was a folded piece of red paper.

He looked at Lin Ruhai in confusion.

Lin Ruhai did not keep the audience in suspense and explained directly.

"This is my dowry for Daiyu. I'd like to ask you, brother and sister-in-law, to pay attention to it and find her a husband that suits her heart.

It doesn't matter if he comes from a prominent family, as long as he treats her well.

By then, I will have these dowries and your care from time to time.

I think no matter who she marries, she will have no worries about food and clothing."

Jia She didn't say anything else. Before he came, he guessed that the reason Lin Ruhai sent someone to find him was to entrust his son to someone else.

He nodded and handed the box to Achun beside him.

Next, Lin Zhong took out another box, and Lin Ruhai continued.

"This is a token of my appreciation. I hope you, uncle, don't despise it."

Jia She opened the box and found a stack of banknotes inside, which amounted to at least twenty or so.

At the top is a list, which is densely packed with records of many precious antiques, gold, silver and jade artifacts.

Everyone knows that the Lin family is wealthy, but no one has ever seen it so directly.

Jia She's eyes narrowed suddenly, even though he had money in his hands.

But when so much silver and good things suddenly appeared in front of him, the impact was extremely great.

But now he is no longer as confused as he was in the dream.

Naturally, one has a certain resistance to these external things.

Besides, he was not poor. His grandmother left all her dowry to him before she died.

But his grandmother also said that he was not allowed to take it out as long as Lady Jia was alive.

He didn't know why before, but later he knew it after everything that happened with the second wife.

He also knew that his grandmother told him this because she understood Lady Jia's character.

If they really took it out, he probably wouldn't be able to keep any of it and would have belonged to the second wife long ago.

So he has kept the secret all these years and would never tell it no matter how his mother tried to trick him.

He slammed the box shut and shook his head at Lin Ruhai.

"I don't want these. I will leave them to Daiyu as a dowry."

Lin Ruhai shook his head slightly, "Brother, you know better than me the principle of being guilty of possessing a treasure.

Ever since Min'er passed away last time, you reminded me that I have bought a lot of real estate for Yu'er around the capital.

So you can keep these without worry.

Jia She didn't refuse anymore. Would he know if he put on more makeup for her?

Finally, Lin Zhongzou took out five boxes that required only one touch.

"This is for my three nephews, nieces, nieces-in-law, and sister-in-law. I ask them to take good care of our Daiyu in the future."

Jia She did not refuse anymore. After all, he was mentally prepared before coming here and he would definitely take Daiyu over.

Accepting his things would also make him feel at ease. Besides, he was right. If I didn't take them away, who knows who would benefit from it in the future.

Lin Ruhai made arrangements for his funeral arrangements and fulfilled his wish, but he died that night.

Seeing this, Jia She quickly gave orders to Lin Zhong.

"Send someone to the side room to call your eldest daughter, your cousin, and your young master over."

When Daiyu saw her father closing his eyes, she cried so hard that she even fainted.

Fortunately, the court doctor was always by her side and he quickly took her pulse and prescribed medicine in one go.

Seeing her transparent pale face, Jia She sighed and gave instructions to Xueyan beside her.

“Send your girl back to rest!

If her father is still alive, he definitely wouldn't want her to neglect her body."
