I pretend to be a unicorn in the Red Mansion

Chapter 39: Mrs. Wang's Gossip 8

Jia Cheng asked the system to put on the skin of Little Sparrow and go out to play by himself, while he continued to read in the house.

The medical books bought from the system are much more exquisite than the ones Jia She found for him. Jia Cheng thought that since he wanted to become famous and come into contact with more people with great luck, he needed to come up with something practical.

He is too young now, and not many people will pay attention to him even if he is called a child prodigy.

The current dynasty is the Qing Dynasty, which has changed a lot. Tang poetry and Song lyrics already exist, so he can't even be a plagiarist.

As for the great man's poem "沁园春.雪", it has been used too much by various time travelers, so he doesn't want to use it and dares not use it.

If a little boy like him could write such a domineering poem, the emperor might suspect that there was rebellion in his family.

The path of a child prodigy is not feasible, as there is no shortage of talented and capable people around princes and nobles.

They would not take a little child prodigy seriously.

In addition, the Jia family is the family of the deposed prince, and many people are unwilling to associate with such a family. A child is not worth the risk.

The most important thing is that the Jia family has no one who can establish a new household, and a child has little appeal to other families.

The utilization value is too low.

No matter how good a child is at studying, people will not have too many expectations of him. Most people will probably just wait and see when he grows up and see his subsequent development.

After all, a child who is talented when young may not necessarily be a good person when he grows up. Are there many children who are like Zhongyong?

Being good at reading is not a way for Jia Cheng to stand out, he can only find another way, a path that no one can refuse.

What do people fear the most? That is birth, aging, sickness and death. Even a great emperor like Qin Shihuang could not escape the pursuit of immortality, and so did Jia Cheng.

Of course, it is the same for other ordinary people. Everyone is afraid of getting sick and dying, so Jia Cheng has to be a person who can control the life and death of others.

Such a person must be a miracle doctor.

If he could cure diseases that others could not, and even bring the dead back to life, would he be respected by others?

Of course, such people will also be feared by others, so at this time the little Qilin incarnated by the system and his golden finger that can let others hear their inner voices will come in handy.

He just wanted to let those people at the top of power know that he had an extraordinary origin and was the reincarnation of a Qilin.

Knowing that offending him would bring bad consequences and would lead to revenge by his friends in heaven, no one dared to attack him.

Those powerful people would try their best to protect him and curry favor with him.

Jia Cheng had chosen his own path early on, and bought a Kirin skin for the system for the future.

If anyone provokes him, the system will appear on his body, baring its teeth and roaring at the offender.

Who wouldn’t be afraid of this?

Hehe, I am such a clever little ghost, Jia Cheng thought proudly.

It just so happened that Lady Jia's luck was sucked away by him, and she became extremely weak. Perhaps even the imperial physician could not diagnose what was wrong with Lady Jia.

If I could cure my grandmother in just a few months of studying medicine, I would definitely become famous throughout the capital.

Besides, Jia Cheng studied medicine hard just to save his grandmother, and he could also gain a good reputation for being filial.

Famous people in ancient times were very concerned about marketing their good reputations. Jia Cheng followed suit and became famous in the same way.

He is still young and many people may not believe in his medical skills, but as long as the day comes when Lady Jia recovers, Rongguo Mansion will hold a banquet and he will be able to make a splash at the banquet.

While reading a medical book, Jia Cheng was thinking about his plan to become famous. He wanted to be meticulous in every step and try to attract those lucky people in one go.

Of course, he couldn't just show it to others casually; he had to set conditions.

With his face that looks like a banished immortal and his cool temperament, he can't just do something worthless.

Jia Cheng was possessed by a spirit of drama. He stood up and put on a stern face, pretending to be unfathomable. He slowly said, "I will not treat those who have no affinity with me, those who are not sincere, and those who are extremely treacherous and evil."

After saying that, he couldn't help but laugh secretly. It's finally my turn to show off. It feels so good.

Jia Cheng was happy with his performance, so he lay back on his large golden nanmu bed and browsed the system mall.

To treat Lady Jia's illness, of course he had to find good medicine produced by the system, and it couldn't be too expensive, otherwise he would be reluctant to spend it.

When he saw the Ten-fold Tonic Pills in the system mall, he nodded. But when he saw the price of the 10 luck points behind it, he shook his head again.

Jia Cheng has always been a selfish person. He doesn't feel sorry for spending any amount of luck points on himself. He loves himself very much, and he feels sorry for spending even a little more luck points on others.

In order to make himself feel comfortable both physically and mentally, it is impossible for him to give so much to Lady Jia.

He searched for a long time before he found a Shenglonghuohu Pill, which is the system version of Viagra.

Shenglonghuohu Pills: After taking them, people can be full of energy and vitality, which will make their partners unable to stop and their concubines speak highly of them.

Jia Cheng looked at the price. One luck pill was worth one bottle, and there were ten pills in a bottle. He could accept this price.

The effect of Shenglonghuohu Pills can only last for one day after taking them, which is a little shorter.

Moreover, this medicine has no tonic effect. It just uses external force to make people hard, and they will become soft if you don’t take it.

In comparison, taking Shiquan Dabu Pills can truly nourish the body, make people energetic, regulate the body and make it full of vitality.

This effect cannot be compared with Shenglonghuohu Pills.

Jia Cheng didn't care about it. Grandmother Jia's luck was slowly recovering. After all, she was an important character in Dream of the Red Chamber and must be special.

Heaven will not let her die, and the luck she has lost will slowly be replenished.

With the replenishment of qi, Grandmother Jia's health should gradually recover.

Jia Cheng also wanted to try the medicine on Lady Jia to see if the ancient prescription produced by the system was effective. Maybe it would unexpectedly make her full of strength.

It just cured Lady Jia's frail health. Lady Jia, who lacked luck, would still be unlucky, but that was not something Jia Cheng should consider.

He just wanted to use this tool to become famous. As for whether Jia Cheng felt any guilt, the answer was none.

What conscience do businessmen have?

I spent one luck point with great pain to buy a bottle of Shenglonghuohu Pills.

Jia Cheng was lying on the bed bored and emptying his mind. Suddenly he thought of the pile of peeping talismans in the system warehouse, and he sat up.

There were no televisions or mobile phones in ancient times, so he was really bored, but he had a peeping talisman.

Although snooping into other people's privacy is immoral, it is very enjoyable. Who can stand it?

It is human nature to love gossip!

Jia Cheng smiled from the bottom of his heart and rubbed his hands excitedly.

Let me see who the lucky one is. Can you show me your little secret?

Jia Cheng spent a long time selecting soldiers and generals, and finally decided to read some gossip about Mrs. Wang.

He always felt that Mrs. Wang had a lot of ill will towards him, and he also wanted to see what kind of person Mrs. Wang was.

The Peeping Talisman can be used to check a specific thing, or you can choose a certain time point.

Jia Cheng thought about Mrs. Wang’s life experience. She was Wang Ziteng’s second sister. She had two older brothers and a biological sister. This sister was Xue Baochai’s mother. In Dream of the Red Chamber, she was only called Aunt Xue.

Aunt Xue married into the imperial merchant Xue family.

Jia Cheng suddenly had an idea and had a question. He had only read "Dream of Red Mansions" roughly once, but after coming to this world, he learned some customs of this world.

In feudal society, the eldest daughter must marry a higher-ranking man. If the eldest daughter marries well, it will be easier for her younger sisters to find marriage partners.

Logically speaking, no one would marry off their eldest daughter to a lower rank, unless there was something wrong with the daughter.

Jia Cheng didn’t know much about Aunt Xue, but the Wang family was one of the four major families and was a prominent family.

Wang Ziteng is now the leader of the four major families, which shows that the development of the Wang family has always been upward. How could Aunt Xue, as the eldest daughter, marry a businessman?

In ancient times, being a city, agriculture, industry and commerce was no joke. In today's society, being rich does not necessarily make you a superior person.

Jia Cheng has a deep understanding of this.

Unless you are a particularly influential wealthy person, if you are a small businessman, you will have to bow and scrape when you meet an official. If they even give you a slight objection, you will not be able to do business.

Merchants have to keep their tails between their legs most of the time. It is not easy to survive in modern times, let alone in ancient times.

Everyone says that businessmen are profit-oriented, and many people look down on them.

Even though the Xue family is an imperial merchant, they are already very powerful in the eyes of ordinary people. Some minor officials will also try to please the Xue family. But to those dukes, marquises and viscounts, the imperial merchant means nothing.

If someone spreads the slightest slander to the emperor, the imperial merchant's business may be ruined.

Why did Aunt Xue marry into the Xue family? Is there some story behind this?

Jia Cheng felt that Mrs. Wang was not a good person, and maybe she had some plans for this.

So Jia Cheng told the prying talisman the story he wanted to see, "The story of the marriage of Lady Wang and her sisters."

Anything produced by the system must be a masterpiece. Everything that happened before and after Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue’s marriage was presented to Jia Cheng.

When Jia Cheng saw the content, his expression suddenly became interesting. This Mrs. Wang is really a scheming girl. She is ruthless even to her own sister.

Back then, the Wang family was not as powerful as it is now. Wang Ziteng’s eldest brother Wang Zisheng was frail and sickly and could not support the entire family.

Wang Ziteng's father was relatively conservative among the four major families, so his achievements were relatively low, and he was completely inferior to the daring and fighting Jia Daishan.

At that time, the Jia family was the leader of the four families of Jia, Shi, Wang and Xue, and its status was extraordinary.

With Jia She's grandmother around, the emperor also looked up to the Jia family, and the other three families all wanted to marry into the Jia family.

Grandmother Jia was from the Shi family and married Jia Daishan, so Jia Daishan didn't want his daughter-in-law to be from the Shi family as well, which disappointed Grandmother Jia.

Grandmother Jia didn't dare to be angry with Jia Daishan, so she took her anger out on Jia She.

If Jia She had not listened to her, the girl from the Shi family might have married into the family.

Jia Daishan and Jia She both disagreed to remarry with the Shi family. Jia Daishan wanted to get rid of the vulgarity of the nobility, so he wanted to marry a woman from a noble family to Jia She.

Finally, let's assume that he married Zhang, the daughter of the Crown Prince's tutor. This was truly a noble and scholarly family.

Originally, Wang Ziteng's father, Wang Xianbo, had the idea of ​​marrying his daughter to Jia She. After all, the Jia family had a high status, and Jia She was by the prince's side, so he would definitely have a bright future.

But Jia Daishan disagreed, and the matter was left unresolved.

County Bo Wang revealed his plan to marry Jia She to his wife, but he did not expect that the then Second Miss Wang, Wang Yarong, overheard the matter.

When he was young, Jia She was a handsome man. From Jia Lian's appearance, we can see that Jia She's appearance was also extraordinary.

Anyone who sees him would say he is a handsome and elegant gentleman.

Although Jia She didn't like reading, he was proficient in eating, drinking and having fun.

He also carries the halo of being the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion, which makes him a good choice for some women who want to curry favor with the powerful.

A good appearance really adds points, and Jia She didn't have a bad reputation at that time.

You could say he is a playboy, but he still accompanies the prince to study. You could say he is diligent and studious, but he has not achieved anything remarkable yet.

Anyway, he is neither good nor bad.

At that time, the emperor bestowed on him the name of Enhou, which meant that when he would succeed Jia Daishan in the future, he would at least not have to be demoted in rank and could become a marquis.

A young and handsome future marquis is very attractive to unmarried ladies.

The four major families of Jia, Shi, Wang and Xue are very good friends. Of course, Wang Yarong has also met the two brothers Jia She and Jia Zheng.

Jia She's charming peach blossom eyes are so affectionate that even dogs can be seen. How could a little girl like Wang Yarong, who is just beginning to fall in love, not be moved?

Later, she overheard her father wanting to marry his daughter to Jia She, and her heart immediately fell on Jia She.

Who wouldn't be moved when a man with power, money, good looks and a promising future is in front of you?

Moreover, a lazy bad boy like Jia She is more attractive than a conservative old scholar like Jia Zheng.

From then on, Wang Yarong had been thinking about Jia She, and she hoped to marry Jia She and become a marquise in the Rongguo Mansion.

But she also knew that she had an older sister, Wang Yafu, who was her stumbling block.

So Wang Yarong began to discredit her eldest sister in front of her parents from time to time, and even pretended to be weak and pitiful in front of her two brothers, saying that her eldest sister bullied her openly or secretly, and she acted very innocent and pitiful.

You should know that Wang Yarong is usually a lively and aggressive woman, and Wang Xifeng is very similar to her.

Everyone has this stereotype that if a woman who is usually very powerful says that she has been bullied, she must have been bullied very badly.

Wang Yafu was so stupid that she had no idea that her own sister was setting a trap for her.

Every time she was set up, she took the initiative to fall into it, and then she became less and less welcome at home. She didn't know what was going on.

Whenever Wang Yafu was sad, Wang Yarong would be a good person to comfort her and encourage her, making Wang Yafu trust this second sister even more.

Jia Cheng only said that he had learned the tricks that Lady Wang used when she was young. He had learned that being a green tea girl was so satisfying. It really harmed people without being noticed.

Jia She and Mrs. Xing picked out a few newly made Ru kiln vases and jade ornaments from the warehouse and brought them to Jia Cheng's door.

As soon as I got to the door, I heard Jia Cheng's inner voice: [Mrs. Wang's green tea tricks are really powerful. I've learned it. I'll learn from her when I play tricks on people in the future. Hahahaha!]

Jia She and Mrs. Xing's faces suddenly turned black.

Damn Mrs. Wang, she has corrupted his children.
