Chapter 1065 Sacrifice(1/2)
(Thanks to the book friend "Huanghuang Night" for his 2 monthly tickets, the 100 starting coin reward of "Soul Drunken Xiangxi", the 2 recommendation tickets of "Feijue Xuepo A", and the 3 recommendation tickets of "Nu Yaoer".)
Although she said this, Zijuan was indeed very satisfied, so she asked again: "That person will give the girl more months. If it is still two or two, I will not comply. I will argue with her."
Lin Daiyu: "He actually said that he paid according to the old lady's payment."
Zijuan was surprised and said: "Twenty taels? That's right..., that man still respects the girl."
Lin Daiyu: "He..."
At this time, there was a reminder from outside that Lin Daiyu should offer incense to Xie Yu's "forgotten father and deceased mother" according to etiquette, that is, her "father-in-law and mother-in-law".
Seeing Lin Daiyu stand up, Zijuan suddenly thought of something and asked cautiously: "Girl, are you feeling well?"
Lin Daiyu said doubtfully: "Natural is fine."
So she got up and left, and Zijuan naturally followed with confusion.
According to the rules, Lin Daiyu had to greet her parents-in-law before breakfast.
Because Xie Yu's body had no parents, Miss Lin could only raise her teacup symbolically to the red silk-covered tablet, which was regarded as a toast.
There is no need to listen to the dead man's instructions and follow the rules.
When eating, Xie Yu didn't like to be served. Seeing Xie Yu's behavior, Lin Daiyu also asked Xue Yan, who was going to serve her food, to go down.
While eating, seeing Lin Daiyu curious about the red silk tablet, Xie Yu smiled and said, "Maybe I want to take a look."
Lin Daiyu: "I don't want to!"
He added: "This is disrespectful!"
Xie Yu: "What's the point? There are so many rules in my small family. You can live your life as you please. I'll let you see. Just don't laugh."
Then, Lin Daiyu saw two sets of tablets.
"Honored father, thank you Ergouzi!"
"Honored Mother Xie!
Lin Daiyu: "This..."
Xie Yu: "If you want to laugh, just laugh. This is the only memory I have. The others have been too long and I really can't remember them."
This brand did make Lin Daiyu laugh a little, but then she thought about it. In fact, Xie Yu, like herself, was an orphan without a father or a mother. For a moment, Lin Daiyu's eyes became red again.
Xie Yu: "Don't cry. Do you also think of my dead father-in-law and mother-in-law?"
Lin Daiyu: "And my three-year-old brother."
Xie Yu sighed: "Then you should also set up a memorial tablet at home and pay homage to me from time to time as a thought."
Lin Daiyu was a little happy, but then hesitantly said: "Is this okay? Isn't it unreasonable?"
Xie Yu: "It's okay. I'm only half a son-in-law. I'll set up a memorial tablet for my late father-in-law and mother-in-law. I'm sorry that others can't say anything."
Lin Daiyu nodded slightly. Although she looked calm on the outside, she was already so happy that she didn't know what to say.
According to the current feudal etiquette tradition, women are not qualified to set up memorial tablets for their parents. At most, they can light a lamp for them in a Taoist temple or temple as an offering.
It's just that due to feudal etiquette, women can't go out casually, so naturally they can't worship all the time.
But if you can worship at home, worship at all times, and refuel your own lamps, you will feel more at ease than having outsiders come to you, then of course there will be no problem.
Of course, it is usually difficult to set up a wife’s family temple in the husband’s house.
There is a saying that the great affairs of the country lie in sacrifice and military affairs, which are naturally solemn.
Of course, except for the son-in-law who is willing, but it is very rare that the son-in-law is willing, because this will be suspected of being a step-in-law or a surrogate son-in-law.
Because the ancients were superstitious and particularly valued incense, they were afraid of stealing the incense tablets of their ancestors and did not want to erect them immediately.
After feeling happy, Lin Daiyu thought about it and thought that Xie Yu didn't understand this very well.
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Daiyu still said based on her character: "Do you know what it means if you allow me to enshrine my parents' tablets in your home? What will your colleagues think of you if they hear about this?"
Xie Yu smiled and said: "You think that my small family will not do this. Don't forget my official position. I treat it as a white guard in the Hanlin Academy. Of course I understand this."
"Of course, just don't be so showy."
"By the way, most people have a tradition of worshiping Bodhisattvas and worshiping Buddhas, and I guess the same goes for the old lady."
Lin Daiyu: "That's natural!"
Xie Yu: "In this way, I will prepare a small Buddhist hall for you. You can enshrine the tablets of my parents-in-law there and worship them privately behind closed doors."
"Later, I'll have someone prepare a few blank tablets. I know how to carve them privately. If you ask, I'll carve them for you."
Lin Daiyu saw that Xie Yu was thinking so thoughtfully and couldn't help but said: "Thank you very much. I will keep this kindness in my heart and I will definitely repay you in the future."
As soon as these words came out, Lin Daiyu, the official representative, agreed to Xie Yu's three-year agreement.
In order to renew her relationship with Jia Baoyu in the future, she will naturally temporarily assume the role of "Mother of the Xie Family" and take over the housekeeping role for Xie Yu.
Xie Yu: "But don't worry about it in the future. Now you just take care of the house for me. I still have a lot of things to do outside!"
"By the way, um..."
Lin Daiyu: "What's wrong!"
Xie Yu: "Actually, forget it, you should take care of your family first, and go to the girls' school if you have nothing else to do. Xiangling respects you very much and says that if you can be a teacher, it will be a blessing for students."
"It's just that you may be less lucky. There are some things in my house that are different from those in the Duke's house. You also have to learn. When you get used to it, you will have to gradually sort out the things I do in the trading company and the goods yard outside.
Get up."
Hearing what Xie Yu said, Lin Daiyu, who had just had a good impression of Xie Yu, became a lot lower. Although she understood, she didn't like worldly things in her heart.
But I thought that Xie Yu had compromised so much to me, and I really wanted to repay him.
Even if she was disgusted and unhappy about being the housekeeper, she had to take up the responsibility so that Xie Yu could have no worries and concentrate on his official career. This was also the requirement for women in feudal etiquette.
Lin Daiyu had to be very clear about some things in her heart, otherwise she would be afraid that she would be soft-hearted when she and Xie Yu were separated in the future if she owed too much favor to Xie Yu.
Goodbye Zijuan came over in small steps and whispered something to Lin Daiyu. Xie Yu's ears twitched.
Lin Daiyu nodded and said, "It just so happens that I have a friend I met before who wants to come and visit me. Among them is Xiangling. I think..."
Xie Yu: "As it should be, just go ahead and do whatever you want in the future. We are equal."
"Just don't forget today. When the time comes, come to the study and ask Qian Xue to give you the account and the housekeeper's key."
Lin Daiyu had just been moved by Xie Yu's previous words, but her younger daughter was provoked by Xie Yu's last words, and she only said: "I know, I know."
Then, he ran out without finishing his meal.
After all, she is an inexperienced girl in her teens. Even if she is talented and intelligent, she still cannot hide some emotions.
Xie Yu was not polite, but the amount of Lin Daiyu's cat food was nothing in Xie Yu's eyes, and he cleaned it all up.
Operation CD accepts that in the corrupt ancient life, there will naturally be people cleaning the dishes for Xie Yu.
Afterwards, Xie Yu returned to his study and prepared to inscribe an inscription on the newly opened shop.
I first looked through books for inspiration, but finally decided to be honest and return to the original topic.
When doing business, you don’t expect to make a fortune, you just want to be safe and have good business.
In the end, I changed a few big characters such as "Friends of Women" and "Feel at Home".
When Lin Daiyu came over with a red face, it seemed that she had been having fun for a while.
Xie Yu meets her!
He said "Huh" and then said: "Why are you back so soon? I haven't seen you for a long time and haven't played much..."
"It would be good for you to move your body more."
Lin Daiyu: "It's so boring. I originally planned to play for a while, but..."
"It's so boring. The days are long and there will always be time."
Xie Yu couldn't understand Lin Daiyu's words about "two people are so boring" for a while, but saw that her tragic personality was about to activate.
Xie Yuxian said: "I'm writing a letter for the shop, please see what happens!"
When Xie Yu said this, Lin Daiyu noticed Xie Yu's handwriting and couldn't help frowning: "Did you write this?"
Xie Yu: "How?"
Lin Daiyu: "It's a pity that I'm not a man, otherwise, I would have been able to take the top prize!"
Xie Yu: "Well, is it that bad?"
Lin Daiyu: "Tell me how you got into the second-class Chuanlu University. Could it be..."
Xie Yu: "Of course not. In fact, the handwriting requirement during the scientific examination is neat and tidy."
"During my imperial examination, it was probably because I was the first to submit the paper. The emperor saw that I was so unsociable, so he started gossiping. Seeing that I was a good talker, he gave me the first place in the second class and was awarded the rank of editor of the Hanlin Academy.
official."
Hearing what Xie Yu said, Lin Daiyu chuckled and said: "You and the stupid guy are still eloquent. What do you think the current emperor is? Is he a tutor who checks academic performance?"
After saying this, Lin Daiyu also felt that something was wrong, so she had to take out a handkerchief to cover up the embarrassment on her face, and making fun of the emperor was a bit taboo.
