The Coral of the Red Mansion Does Not Return
Work related
The butler, seeing that Jia Min's marriage was about to be settled, left most of the affairs to Jia Min for training.The East Mansion often posts to invite the wife of the West Mansion to enjoy the lotus in summer and the snow in winter. Eight out of ten times Mrs. Liu will not go.It's rare to have free time, and Mrs. Xu said that she needs Mrs. Liu to come, so Mrs. Liu also came to relax.
At this time, Mrs. Wang didn't say a word, she only had a smile on the corner of her mouth, and Mrs. Liu echoed Mrs. Xu, "Sister-in-law is right, the old lady will worry about the children of the second brother in the future!"
As soon as Jia Mu's baby bump, Jia Zheng, was mentioned, Jia Mu smiled even more. Looking at Wang's belly, she wished that ten or eight of Jia Zheng's legitimate sons and daughters would pop out at once, and then tell them about their marriage next year. like.
It's rare that the old man said something pleasant.
Mother Jia gave Mrs. Wang a loving look, Mrs. Wang smiled and straightened her stomach.
Walking to the garden, Mrs. Xu pointed it out to everyone in the West Mansion. The yellow chrysanthemums and white chrysanthemums were all blooming brilliantly. The rarest one was a black chrysanthemum. I bought it there, and today I have a banquet for everyone, so I borrowed it from Master Jing's study.
"My master is so precious. If I didn't rely on you, I don't know when I would have this blessing!"
Tired from walking for a while, Mrs. Xu took everyone to the pavilion at the highest point of Huifang Garden to sit down and have a rest.
When a maid came back to report, Jia Mu said, "Go, we are familiar with each other here."
Mrs. Liu nodded and persuaded: "Very well, we are here to look at the flowers and eat snacks. After you are done with your work, it is the same to eat crabs. We will not steal them!"
Everyone laughed at what he said, especially Jia Mu, whose face was full of wrinkles and laughed like a chrysanthemum.
Mrs. Liu said it herself, and at the end, she couldn't help laughing out loud. It turns out that Mrs. Xu loves crabs the most, especially the fattest lake crabs in autumn.She not only loves to eat, but also likes to pull others to eat, and she is not happy if others don't eat.
Everyone in Xifu knew about her problem.Mother Jia laughed and said intermittently: "You are not allowed to force your sister-in-law to eat crabs!"
Mrs. Wang has also been married to Jia's family for several years, and she was dragged by Mrs. Xu. At first, she didn't know why Mrs. Xu was so enthusiastic, and she suspected that she had some bad intentions.After the banquet, Jia Min secretly explained to her, and Madam Wang slowly let go of her doubts.However, Mrs. Wang pursed her lips, she still didn't understand what was so funny.It's just that everyone laughed, so she covered her mouth with a veil and smiled gracefully.
Mrs. Xu pretended to be annoyed: "What a cruel person, I'm not happy to invite you to eat crabs. I'm really mad at you!" Twisted away.There was a laugh behind him.
He ordered the maids near the gazebo, "Send some jugs of warm wine to the old ladies, light sweet-scented osmanthus wine, and some fruit wines." After the maids answered, they asked the maid following behind Amber who had just come to report: "Which room are you from? What's the matter? Is it so important?" Mrs. Xu was a little dissatisfied, what's the matter, to disturb her banquet guests.Fortunately, only people from the West Mansion were invited this time. If there were any other distinguished guests, they would inevitably be dissatisfied with the neglect of the Ningguo Mansion.
That servant girl was in Jia Zhen's room, her face was pale, panicked, seeing his wife getting angry, she knelt down in fright: "Servant, this servant is Zhen, the servant is in Uncle Zhen's room, Aunt Tao called the servant over."
Mrs. Xu frowned, not understanding what her son's aunt asked her to do, so she couldn't help raising her eyebrows and asked: "What's the matter with Aunt Tao?" The last two words were bitten particularly hard.
The servant girl trembled even more, faltering, unable to speak, and finally, she just said: "Madam, please go and take a look." As she spoke, she cried and kowtowed.
Xu has always been a considerate person, the maid was only twelve or thirteen years old, saw her kowtow hard, twice, her forehead was broken, she couldn't bear it, so she hurriedly asked Liuli to help her up.Fearing that something happened to Aunt Tao, Mrs. Xu ordered Amber to complain to the old lady of the West Mansion first, and then asked Pearl to order some side dishes directly from the kitchen, and then looked at Shan Shan.
Shan Shan understood, and hurried to Aunt Tao's yard with a few maidservants.
Seeing this, Xu felt a little relieved.Coral is what she relies on the most. Hu Po and the others take care of personal things, but Coral helps Xu take care of the inner courtyard of Ningguo Mansion.Xu believed that a married daughter-in-law would inevitably put her husband and children first, so she valued her maidservant more than those married daughters-in-law and mother-in-law.Coral was picked out by her to control the daughter-in-law in charge.Sending her to work, Xu felt very relieved.
When Mrs. Xu returned to the pavilion on the rockery in Huifang Garden, cage after cage of crabs had been steamed, but everyone was warming the wine.Seeing her coming, Mrs. Wang smiled and said, "We are still guessing when you will come. If you don't come, we won't wait for you!"
Jia's mother also laughed and scolded: "Hurry up and take a seat, leave the guests and go on your own, you should be punished! You should be punished!"
As she said that, Mother Jia was about to pour wine for her, and Mrs. Liu quickly took it and filled up the small and exquisite white jade wine glass, and several people urged her to drink it.
Mrs. Xu was about to say three glasses of self-punishment, when Mrs. Liu's wine glass was brought to his mouth.Xu had no choice but to drink it down.Both Liu and Wang are daughters-in-law, and their children are not yet married, and there are times when it is very lively, and all the elder relatives present are present, so they have no scruples.
Mrs. Liu poured several glasses of wine with a smirk, until Mrs. Xu was a little dizzy. Only then did Mrs. Xu wake up: "It's already three glasses! It's already three glasses! Don't drink me any more!"
Only then did Liu give up regretfully.She had been in contact with Mrs. Xu before she left the cabinet. After all these years, I don't know how much she drinks.What's more, the sweet-scented osmanthus wine and fruit wine they drank were newly brewed in the past few years, and if they were not intoxicating, Xu was just pretending to be dizzy and begging for mercy.
Mrs. Wang was pregnant, so she didn't want to make too much movement, she only smiled slightly, drank two sips of warm fruit wine, and sat quietly by the side, looking more like a sister-in-law than Mrs. Liu.
After a lot of laughing and banter, and several drinking orders back and forth, Xu talked about the business after enjoying himself.
"Miss Min, why didn't you come here today?"
Wang continued: "Sister Min is about to reach Ji, now, she's getting to know the housekeeper!"
Learning what the housekeeper does, everyone knows that Jia Min is not here, so they all laughed happily.
"Speaking of which, Miss Min's concubine will be in February next year, right?" Xu asked casually, "Is there anyone for Zhengbin?"
Everyone in Xifu looked at her and smiled.
Xu was a little ashamed, "Why are you laughing. If you keep doing this, I won't say anything!"
Mother Jia has the most say in this matter, "Nephew and daughter-in-law, who do you choose?"
Having said everything, Mrs. Xu didn't hold back anymore, and simply said openly: "It's not that I have any candidate, it's Princess Nan'an. You also know that my natal sister-in-law has a good relationship with Princess Nan'an. She It's on my head."
Mother Jia expressed surprise at this: "Although we are the same four princes and eight princes, we have rarely seen each other since the Duke of the country retired, but we still have friendship? Why didn't Princess Nan'an come to me directly?"
This statement is actually not correct, Jia Daishan no longer cares about things, Jia She and Liu Shi are all in charge of the Jia family, and Liu Shi doesn't know about these things, just giving New Year's gifts as usual.It's just that the relationship between the four kings and eight fathers was never on the surface, but Jia She knew that the four kings and eight fathers took jujube pills, so he didn't get close to them anymore.
Jia's mother doesn't often go out to socialize. Liu's occasionally attends gatherings at her mother's house. They are all from a scholarly family and have no intersection with the noble circle. Wang's has not been taken by anyone in the past few years, and she is pregnant again. It's not easy to post a post rashly, so I passed around handkerchiefs to test Rongfu's intentions.If he is willing, it means that the Rongguo Mansion is still moving closer to the nobles. If he is not willing, after Jia Daishan dies, the Rongguo Mansion may be in a difficult situation for a while.
Mrs. Xu said a little amusedly, "Who said that the old lady doesn't go out recently?" Ningrong Second Mansion, also known as Mrs. Xu, has often attended the gatherings of ladies and ladies in the capital recently, and Jia Zhen is about to get married. To find a candidate for a daughter-in-law.
Mother Jia was the most impatient with those social gatherings, so she said: "You all know that I don't like to go out.——Concubine Nan'an is willing, I am naturally happy, and I want you to be the sounding board again."
Xu is obviously very happy.There are some trivial words again, and I will not narrate them again.It was only said that when the banquet was over, Mrs. Xu whispered to Mrs. Liu: "Come tomorrow, I have something to tell you."
Mother Jia and the others didn't know that they had something to say. The next day Mrs. Liu came to ask for resignation, saying that she would go to Dongfu to ask her sister-in-law about sewing, and Mother Jia would agree.Otherwise, can she still be locked up?
"What did you want to say yesterday?"
The author has something to say: After a busy afternoon, I finally sent out the signing contract. As soon as I started eating, I drank crock pot soup and ate a big bowl of noodles according to my previous appetite, but I was actually full... I got it... I got it... I got it...
If this is the cost of losing weight from 70 to 66...→_→Then I will eat less next time_(:з」∠)_
Huh, until today, the previous chapters have finally been replaced!So excited!Flowers, flowers!
☆, the extremely expensive Yuanchun
"Since you asked, I'll tell you directly." Xu smiled and said, "What do you think of my son Jia Zhen?"
Mrs. Liu thought about it, and gave her evaluation: "I have studied with my father-in-law in the past few years, and I have made great progress in dealing with people. I heard from Hu'er that Zhen'er will go to the hospital for the exam, and she will be a scholar."
Mrs. Liu also watched Jia Zhen grow up, and Mrs. Xu didn't hide it, and said bluntly: "If you ask me, Zhen'er can be regarded as a young talent in the capital."
"In terms of family background, his father is a first-class general of the gods. If the title is passed on to Zhen'er, there will always be a third-class general."
"In terms of future, Zhen'er will go to Jinling now, and her fame as a scholar will not be far away."
"In terms of character, although Zhen'er was spoiled by me a few years ago, she was fortunate enough to be taught by Rong Guogong in the past few years, and her temper has also restrained."
After saying the above long sentence in one breath, Xu finally expressed his original intention: "I heard that your natal sister-in-law has a niece, I wonder if there is a marriage?"
As early as when Mrs. Xu asked her what she thought of Jia Zhen, Mrs. Liu seemed to realize that she was 16 years old, and it was time to say goodbye.
When Mrs. Xu listed Jia Zhen's benefits one by one, Mrs. Liu almost burst out of laughter. How could she sell her son like this?However, Mrs. Xu has such a straightforward temperament, and what she said was the truth, so Mrs. Liu didn't interrupt her, and listened to it with a smile.
When Mrs. Xu asked about her niece, Mrs. Liu couldn't help bowing down: "You, my natal sister-in-law's niece, there is only one, and she is the youngest daughter of Mr. Gu, the servant of the household department. Now it is the year of cardamom. Thirteen or fourteen years old), there are still two years left to reach Ji, so you are thinking about it?"
"There are hundreds of girls in a family who are begging, so they should be settled early so that others won't be able to get there first."
Mrs. Liu pointed at her and laughed: "Are you ashamed to say that other people will come first?"
Mrs. Xu was not annoyed, she just said, "You haven't answered my question yet."
"You are asking the right person when you ask me."
"Master Gu has only this one prostitute daughter under his knees. It can be said that his love is like a treasure. When I was a girl at home, I saw her. She is naturally unmarried now. Who can be earlier than you?" Mrs. Liu joked.Fifteen and Ji, girls in Dazhou usually get married at the age of sixteen or seventeen, and it is indeed a bit early to discuss marriage at the age of 13.
"However, there are so many noble girls in the capital, how did you notice her?"
"My master told me long ago that the daughter-in-law I choose for Zhen'er should be chosen from a family of poets and books. She must be able to control Zhen'er. I don't dare to think about the daughters of those family members. Search in the homes of people who are similar to us."
Xu explained: "Didn't my natal sister-in-law invite us wives to taste this year's new tea a few days ago? I happened to meet her at the banquet. I saw her such a neat girl, and I couldn't love her, so I just Pay attention to inquire. This girl has a good character and happens to have something to do with you, so why don't I just come to you?"
Mrs. Liu was a little embarrassed: "But Zhen'er is sixteen now, right? The daughters of the Gu family have always married late, and my natal sister-in-law also stayed until she left the cabinet."
Mrs. Xu immediately said: "That's no problem. Zhen'er is going to be a Jinshi. My husband said he's not ready yet." The next autumn will be three years later. Unlikely.
Having said all this, Mrs. Liu also felt that Jia Zhen was really good, and said, "Then I will ask my natal sister-in-law for you. However, I have agreed that if it can be done, I still have to take care of Mrs. Gu." .”
Xu couldn't help laughing, "Just ask for me, whether or not the marriage will work out depends on the woman."
The two talked again, and Mrs. Liu wanted to go back to see how the butler Jia Min was doing, so she left.
Mrs. Xu sent her to Yimen, and graciously told her: "If it doesn't work, you have to ask me why. I love his daughter very much, and I can talk about anything that can be discussed."
Mrs. Liu smiled and nodded, thinking to herself, go back and inquire carefully, what did the daughter of the Gu family do to make her so rare.
I don't want to mention this matter. In the year of the Grand Competition, not only Jia Zhen went back to the college for the exam, but Jia Zheng will also end this year, and it will still be Qiu Wei.Jia Zheng had already passed the exam once, and the Jia family was busy and not chaotic. Except for Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang who were eagerly looking forward to it, everyone else didn't care.Jia Amnesty was in the mood of watching a joke. You know, Jia Zheng didn't pass the examination until Jia Daishan's death.
Jia Daishan's mood was a bit complicated when Jia Zheng ended today.But seeing the elder son's look of waiting to see the joke, can he speculate that Zheng'er still failed this time?He sighed and continued to lecture Jia Hu.
Jia Hu sat upright, now his homework is no longer as easy as it was when Jia Zhen was there, he gets up at Yin time ([-]:[-] am to [-]:[-] am) every day, practice martial arts, practice calligraphy, and memorize books.At the end of Chenshi (seven to nine in the morning), that is, around nine o'clock, Jia Daishan came to give him a lecture.Until the beginning of Youshi (five o'clock in the afternoon), take a nap for an hour in the middle.
Today I'm talking about "Book of Changes", but it's just a beginning, and I'm talking about "Yuan, Heng, Li, and Zhen".Jia Hu keenly noticed that Jia Daishan was absent-minded.However, Jia Hu felt relieved when he thought that today was the day for Qiu Wei to enter the arena.
Qiu Wei had nothing to say, except that Jia's mother was equally anxious, and the servants also boasted that Mr. Zheng would win. Nine days later, Jia Zheng came out with the same face.Of course, after the results of Qiu Wei came out, Jia Zheng also lost his reputation.
The servants of Jia's family were in a hurry, because "Master Zheng couldn't bear this blow, he vomited blood and fell into a coma."When the news reached Lixiangyuan, Jia Daishan and Jia Hu had lunch.Although Jia Daishan was disappointed, he went to comfort his younger son.As a nephew, Jia Hu also went to condolences.
Jia Hu looked coldly at Jia Zheng lying on the bed in a lifeless state, and felt that he was a bit pitiful.The feeling of being defeated is not so pleasant.This is not just a denial of the results of years of hard study in the cold window.If you fail the imperial examination, you cannot become an official.Think about it, if you can't graduate, you won't be able to find a job, which means no financial income.In particular, Jia Zheng was the second son, he had no title of title, only the fame of a scholar, and his family was divided equally, which was only a little better than that of a commoner.
Jia Hu felt sympathetic, but he didn't feel that his family should give up his title, and he didn't intend to persuade his parents to give up targeting the second wife.Because Mrs. Wang was looking at him with a cold look.
Not yours, definitely not yours.If you dare to reach out, your claws will be chopped off.
It seems that Jia Hu is a gentleman, but in fact he is not a good person.He disdains to compete with Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang on the matter of the inner house, but he is not afraid of being plotted against him.
After watching Jia Zheng, Jia Daishan indicated that he would not be in class today.Just as Jia Zhen came back from Jinling yesterday, Jia Hu went to Dongfu to meet him.
"Brother Zhen, have you been admitted as a scholar?"
Before seeing him, he heard his voice first, and before Jia Zhen saw her cousin Hu, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, he was the first to steal her voice.
Jia Zhen didn't take it seriously, and was used to Jia Hu being the dominant one when the two got along.His brows were full of joy, "Of course, after this year, I will go to the Imperial College to attend classes."
Seeing doubts on Jia Hu's face, he took the initiative to explain: "My father is a first-class general, and he has a place in the Imperial College."
Jia Hu nodded, Jia Zheng was also in the Guozijian, so he should be using Jia Daishan's quota.
Interrupting the reminiscence that Jia Zhen had just said, Jia Hu asked Jia Zhen to silently write the questions of the college examination.Then do the questions on the spot, and Jia Zhen invigilates the exam.Let Jia Zhen write her answer sheet silently again.Comparing the answer sheets of the two, Jia Hu was very satisfied.
After reading Jia Hu's answer sheet, Jia Zhen was surprised to find that Cousin Hu's strategy was very different from that before he went to Jinling. ! You have improved your knowledge again! How can you improve so fast!"
Then Jia Hu used reasons such as "After you left, my grandfather taught alone, and the time was longer".
Knowing that it was just an excuse, Jia Zhen still said that her uncle was really sad (gan) heart (de) sick (piao) crazy (liang).
Jia Hu smiled and remained silent.The two looked at each other, knowing each other well.
The two talked about the scenery and customs in the south of the Yangtze River, and Jia Zhen also hinted that when Jia Hu was a little older, she would take him to see and see, and got a look that seemed to be a smile but not a smile.
Saying goodbye to Jia Zhen, Jia Hu gave Jia Daishan the test questions and answer sheets, and made some changes under Jia Daishan's guidance.Today's homework is a similar topic posed by Jia Daishan.
On the first day of the first lunar month, Mrs. Wang struggled to give birth to a girl.Because this girl had a very good life, Jia's mother was so happy that she named her "Yuanchun" on the spot, and raised her under her knees. What she ate and used was nothing compared to Jia Ying, the eldest daughter of the big house. Not bad.
Jia Amnesty was somewhat dismissive, but was persuaded by Mrs. Liu, "It's just a girl, and it will be a dowry in the future. If you feel that the second wife is too flattering, there is no need. The status of the second wife is not raised by girls. of."
These words were so reasonable that Jia Amnesty could not refute them.He has another dark thought: the better Yuan Chun is now, the more sad it will be for him to be sent to the palace by the old lady as a maid in the future.Don't think he doesn't know, the old lady will say from time to time, "My Min'er is worthy of a princess", even though she is only a side concubine.
Mother Jia publicized the title of "extremely precious fate" for the purpose of sending Yuan Chun to the royal family in the future.
In the blink of an eye, it's February, Jia Min and Ji's day.
Jia Min's ceremony was held in Rongxi Hall.
The guest of honor is Princess Nan'an.
"Book of Rites Nei Ze": "Women are allowed to marry,...the tenth year is five years old." The fifteenth year of a woman is "Jiji", also known as "Yannian". After reaching Ji, a woman can marry.
Jiamu, Liushi and Wangshi are waiting for guests in the east.When the guests came, Mother Jia warned the two daughters-in-law in a low voice, "Today is Min'er and Ji's day, and I don't want any mistakes. Mrs. Liu, go and check the utensils, Mrs. Wang, go and see Min'er."
The two agreed, and a dark light flashed in Mrs. Wang's eyes.
Thinking about her Jiji, there were only a few sisters who were good friends, and they gave some handkerchiefs made by themselves.The old lady of the Wang family never asked, let alone held a ceremony for her.
She is a concubine, so she didn't think there was anything wrong with this treatment, at least she married a good family, who is many times better than her first sister.As a result, when she arrived at Jia's house, Jia Min's preciousness made her jealous of her day by day.
When eating, Jia Min sat while she stood, serving her meals.
While chatting, Jia Min was talking about poems and songs, and she listened to them, holding hands from time to time.
On weekdays, Jia Min couldn't stand a little anger, Jia Min's eyes were red, and she would be ridiculed by her mother-in-law.
What Jia Min eats, uses, and wears are all good things Mrs. Wang has never seen before, but only heard from the old lady of the Wang family.Mother Jia opened the storeroom, and Jia Min picked and chose at will, but Mrs. Wang was guarded, and someone followed her into the storeroom, as if she was a thief.Once, when Mrs. Liu led the two to open the treasury, she heard Jia Min whispering to Mrs. Liu: "Sister-in-law, why is the second sister-in-law like someone who has never seen the world? The old treasury at home hasn't been opened yet." , she just looked straight in the eye."
She is a concubine and is despised by others.
She is a prostitute, honored by gold and noble by jade.
That's why she couldn't like Jia Min anyway.
The ceremony has begun.
Jia Daishan got up and said a few words briefly.
The praiser came out first, and it was Jia Min's handkerchief. Niu Guogong's second daughter was engaged last year, and the wedding will be in June this year.Niu Xin washed her hands, went to the west and stood there.
Then Jia Min came out, dressed in black (black) cloth, with vermilion brocade edges, pure and beautiful in color.This is Caiyi, which makes Jia Min innocent.Jia Min walked to the middle, faced south, and saluted the guests.Then sit facing west.
The praiser symbolically combed Jia Min's hair with a comb.
Initially added.
Concubine Nan'an walked in front of Jia Min, and she chanted loudly: "On the auspicious day of the month, I will start to add yuan clothes. Abandon your young ambitions, follow your success and become a virtue. Shoukao Weiqi, Jieer Jingfu." Symbolizes Those who are naturally ji are right ji.
Jia Min listened solemnly.From today, she is an adult.
Jia Min went back to the east room and changed into a light and elegant skirt.
Jia Min bowed deeply to her parents to express her gratitude to her parents for their upbringing.
Mother Jia's eye circles were red. She was a small ball at that time, but now she has grown into a girl who walks lightly.
Jia Daishan, who was dressed in Xuanduan deep clothes, looked at this old woman, who was also his only prostitute, with emotion.Today is also the day of Chun Wei, the boy of the Lin family, and he will come to propose marriage to Min'er after he gets his name on the gold list in the palace examination.
Two plus.
"The auspicious moon and the chen are Shen Erfu. Respect Er's majesty, Shu Shende. My sister will live forever and receive Hu Fu forever."
Remove the hairpin, put the hairpin on the hairpin, and put on a dignified and bright skirt with deep clothes.
Jia Min bowed to the guest of honor.Concubine Nan'an looked at her lovingly.
Three plus.
"With the righteousness of the year, with the order of the month, Xianjiaer obeys. Brothers are present, so that they can become Jude. The yellow scorpion has no boundaries, and it is celebrated by the sky."
Go to the hairpin, add the hairpin crown, and put on a graceful dress with large sleeves.
This time, I bowed in the direction of the imperial city.
Remove the display of Jili, and set up a feast of wine and wine in the west.
"Sweets and sweets are thick, and you can recommend them to make you fragrant. Worship and sacrifice to determine Erxiang. The rest of the heavens will never be forgotten." Jia Min saluted and took the wine.After entering the table, sprinkle some wine on the ground, touch your lips with the wine, and then put the wine on the table.Take the meal offered by You Si and eat some.
"Etiquette is prepared, the moon is auspicious, and the word is announced. The word is Kong Jia, and the scholar is suitable. It is suitable for the fake, and it will be protected forever. It is called Jia Minfu."
Jia Min bowed to Bin, "Although Min is not sensitive, I dare not only serve you late at night."
Jia Min knelt in front of her parents and listened to their teachings.
Jia Daishan exhorted her with a complicated expression.
Jia Min listened quietly, and replied, "Although my son is not sensitive, I dare not only accept it!" After speaking, she bowed deeply.
Since then, Jia Min has grown up.She will not only be a daughter to her parents, sister to her brother, but will soon be a wife to her husband and mother to her children.
With infinite longing for the future, Jia Min received the news of Lin Ruhai's high school prospect.
The author has something to say: Today's word count is more than 4000, and the new chapter is fat~
Dear friends, what do you think of me fixing the update time at 09:30 in the morning?Or post it when it's finished?
☆, Lin Ruhai exploring flowers (catching insects)
On the Golden Luan Hall, the middle-aged emperor held an answer sheet in his hand and stared at it intently.All the ministers and students in the hall were silent.
This answer sheet was selected by several examiners of the palace examination. If there is no accident, the answer sheet will be the number one scholar.
After reading it, the emperor pondered for a moment, picked up the other two test papers, and read: "Wu Bozong, Guo Chong, stand up and let me have a look."
Among nearly a hundred students, a calm middle-aged man with a long beard stood up, "Student Wu Bozong, I have met the emperor." A younger boy with a stern manner stood up, "Student Guo Chong. I have seen the emperor."
Looking at the young man, the emperor always felt that his face was familiar. Thinking of his surname, he couldn't help turning his eyes to Mr. Guo Ge.Mr. Guo Ge stroked his beard and came out with a smile, "Back to the emperor, Guo Chong is the direct descendant of this minister."
"Oh?" The emperor sized him up with great interest, and found that the grandfather and grandson were indeed somewhat alike, "As expected of Zhongping's grandson, the tiger father has no dogs!"
Guo Zhongping thanked the emperor with a smile, and returned to the courtiers with a smug old face.Let his colleagues shoot at him with envious and jealous eyes.
The emperor asked again: "Where is Lin Hai?"
Lin Ruhai came out calmly: "Student Lin Hai, I have met the emperor."
"Your father is Lin Sen?" The emperor vaguely remembered the man who cleared the dust, and his ability was also very good, but it was a pity that he died too early.The emperor thought for a while, and found that Lin Hai was born this year.
"Exactly." Lin Ruhai lowered his head, not daring to look directly at Tian Yan, and replied neither humble nor overbearing.
The emperor thought carefully, Lin Hai gave the best answer, Wu Bozong came second, and Guo Chong came third.However, in the recent dispute between the DPRK and China, the side led by Guo Ge is more sympathetic to him.Since ancient times, Tanhua has mostly been characters with outstanding literary talents and graceful looks. Compared with the middle-aged Wu Bozong, the emperor is of course more inclined to Lin Hai.
"Guo Chong should be the number one scholar."
"Wu Bozong is the second place."
"Lin Hai is Tanhua."
The three thanked each other, but the emperor still had something to do, so he ordered the eunuch to read out the imperial edict he had just written.
The eunuch read in a shrill voice: "Following heaven's destiny, the emperor's decree said: Today's science explores Hualinhai, with noble character, dragon and phoenix appearance, when it is suitable for marriage, you should choose a virtuous woman to match. I heard that the daughter of Rong Guogong Jia Daishan Jia Min is skillful and generous, gentle and honest, and has outstanding appearance. The Queen Mother and I are very pleased to hear about it. It is worth Jia Min to be in Yu's boudoir, and Lin Hai can be said to be made by nature. Two people, choose a good day to get married. This is it."
The huge surprise overwhelmed Lin Ruhai.A few days ago, Rong Guogong said that there was a surprise for him, but he didn't expect it to be an imperial decree for marriage.
The emperor usually doesn't care about the marriage of the minister's daughter. This imperial decree was indeed requested by Jia Daishan.However, this is also due to Lin Ruhai's own credit. After all, it is a beautiful thing for the emperor to marry the daughter of Tanhua and the Duke of the State. It is for the sake of the Duke of the State that he bestows a marriage on a person who is a second-class or a Jinshi. .
Lin Ruhai accepted the order.
This is not just a marriage decree, it means that Lin Ruhai has already entered the eyes of the emperor.Lin Ruhai knew that he couldn't compare with the No. [-] scholar backed by Ge Lao, but he was even better than the second place.
Before leaving, Lin Ruhai looked at Jia Daishan gratefully. This was the Jia family's first investment in the Lin family.
Jia Daishan nodded to him.
"Brother Ruhai, among the four great joys in life, Brother Ruhai gets the second, wouldn't it be great!"
"Brother Ruhai, you are a gold medalist, and you have been granted a marriage by the emperor. You were fooled at the Qionglin banquet!"
"Brother Ruhai, you have to treat us to a wedding wine!"
"Exactly! Exactly!"
Several students who were close friends with Lin Ruhai surrounded him, and Lin Ruhai kept talking with them.
Finally, everyone left, and the three of Yijia had time to talk.
Guo Chong's description is also quite embarrassing.He was clean by nature, and was surrounded by a bunch of people just now, and now his brows were almost knotted.Seeing Lin Ruhai coming over, he first congratulated: "Congratulations! It seems that our Tanhualang has a master!" The teasing tone made those who thought this person was cold and difficult to get along with, and they would be surprised.
Wu Bozong is not as popular as the two of them, but this person is an open-minded person.The three of them have been in contact for a long time, and it is also fate that they can be in the first class together.He was really happy for the two friends, and frequently persuaded them to drink at the Qionglin banquet.In the end, all three were sent home drunk.
In the morning, I greeted my parents and met Jia Min on the road.
The news of Lin Ruhai's high school prospect and being given a marriage had spread to Jia's family yesterday, so when Jia Hu said congratulations, Jia Min's face turned red with embarrassment.
Jia Hu looked at Jia Min who was blushing, and suddenly remembered that this was the mother of Fairy Crimson Pearl.He broke into a smile. After staying in Dazhou for nearly ten years, he almost forgot all about "Dream of Red Mansions", which he didn't have a deep impression of.However, the mother of Lin Daiyu, one of the heroines in the N-corner relationship dispute, still remembers it.
Jia Hu didn't intend to say anything more. Once Jia Min appeared in the book, he was a dead person. He didn't think he was the Holy Father. If he transmigrated into the book, he would change someone's fate. What's more, what could he do? ?At this time, Jia Min was just his aunt.
I still don't like Dafang's aunt very much.
Jia Hu was a little disdainful, no matter what happened to Dafang, she never harmed her.
For a moment, Jia Min didn't know what to say, looking at Jia Hu's indifferent face, she was a little at a loss.
Previously, Jia Min always thought that Jia Hu had such a cold personality, except that he was calmer in front of his father who taught him, and he was more intimate in front of his eldest brother and sister-in-law, he was always so cold and indifferent to everyone else.When Jia Hu was still young, Jia Min once thought that his nephew didn't like her, but luckily he was very sad for a long time.At that time, there were only their two children in the family, and Jia Min treated this little nephew like a younger brother in his heart.Later, it was discovered that Jia Hu was indifferent to everyone other than his parents, and Jia Min was slowly relieved.The successive births of Jia Zhu and Jia Ying drew her attention away.
After seeing Jia Hu's doting on Jia Ying and the incident with the second brother, Jia Min couldn't help but have a new understanding.She has always known that the elder sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law are not getting along, and there are also conflicts between the mother and sister-in-law.He had never thought deeply about the reason before, but now Jia Min has a vague concept in his mind.
The eldest brother and sister-in-law, Jia Hu and Jia Ying, are a family.The second elder brother and second sister-in-law, Jia Zhu and Yuan Chun, are from another family.
Jia Min looked at Jia Hu firmly.He didn't see Ying Er's pampering in his eyes, he didn't see the tenderness of his parents and grandfather, he looked at her without respect, as if he was looking at someone who didn't matter.
That's right, I've never gotten along with each other, so where's the feeling?Jia Min laughed at herself, she should tease Yinger, who is learning to talk, and Yuan Chun, who is not yet able to stand up.
Seeing that Jia Min first looked at him without saying a word for a long time, and then hurriedly said goodbye.Jia Hu's heart was trembling, and he couldn't figure out the reason.Jia Hu shook his head, he still had to go to Lixiangyuan to attend classes.
After meeting Jia Min this time, Jia Hu rarely saw her.Sometimes Ying'er would whisper in his ear, why didn't aunt come to play with her today?According to my mother, my aunt is getting married and is busy embroidering wedding dresses.Ying'er was a little upset, Jia Hu brought a lot of novelties from outside to coax her, and she forgot about her aunt.
Na Cai, ask the name, Najib, Na Zheng, please period.
On the seventh day of August, it is advisable to get married.
Jia Min married into the Lin family.
Today is the time when the three dynasties returned home. Jia Min went to the inner courtyard with Liu Shi, while Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng waited in the study.
Soon, Lin Ruhai came over under the guidance of his servants.
The three chatted happily. Lin Ruhai heard that the elder brother's eldest son was nearly ten years old, so he couldn't help asking, "Why don't you see your eldest nephew?"
This morning, Jia Amnesty asked Jia Hu if he wanted to meet your Uncle Lin.Lin Ruhai is a good candidate, and it is also good for Jia Hu to get his advice.Who knew that Jia Hu vetoed it straight away.Not knowing what the kid was thinking, Jia She pulled his beard angrily.
Hearing her brother-in-law's question, Jia She said with a haha, "Hu'er said yesterday that she would come and wait for Uncle Lin, who knows that she woke up a little bit bad this morning, the child is thinking about being sick, and I'm sick to you. Let me take the blame for him."
Obviously I saw Jia Hu go to pay his respects this morning with great vigor, Jia Zheng said in disbelief, "Brother is looking for a reason and also looking for a distraction."
On the surface, Jia Zheng also sighed, Hu'er usually worked too hard, she shouldn't be reading so late at night.Then he asked someone to bring Jia Zhu over.
Jia Zhu was studying with her husband at this time. Lin Ruhai took the exam and found that although the generation of the elder brother in Rongguo Mansion had no achievements in imperial examinations, Jia Hu and Jia Zhu were quite talented.Lin Ruhai couldn't help sighing, there is someone following Mr. Rong.
Those people were talking and laughing happily in the study, but Jia Hu tried to persuade his grandfather.
Recently, Jia Daishan had some coughs. Jia Hu thought that in the book Rong Guogong also died young.
At this time, Mrs. Wang didn't say a word, she only had a smile on the corner of her mouth, and Mrs. Liu echoed Mrs. Xu, "Sister-in-law is right, the old lady will worry about the children of the second brother in the future!"
As soon as Jia Mu's baby bump, Jia Zheng, was mentioned, Jia Mu smiled even more. Looking at Wang's belly, she wished that ten or eight of Jia Zheng's legitimate sons and daughters would pop out at once, and then tell them about their marriage next year. like.
It's rare that the old man said something pleasant.
Mother Jia gave Mrs. Wang a loving look, Mrs. Wang smiled and straightened her stomach.
Walking to the garden, Mrs. Xu pointed it out to everyone in the West Mansion. The yellow chrysanthemums and white chrysanthemums were all blooming brilliantly. The rarest one was a black chrysanthemum. I bought it there, and today I have a banquet for everyone, so I borrowed it from Master Jing's study.
"My master is so precious. If I didn't rely on you, I don't know when I would have this blessing!"
Tired from walking for a while, Mrs. Xu took everyone to the pavilion at the highest point of Huifang Garden to sit down and have a rest.
When a maid came back to report, Jia Mu said, "Go, we are familiar with each other here."
Mrs. Liu nodded and persuaded: "Very well, we are here to look at the flowers and eat snacks. After you are done with your work, it is the same to eat crabs. We will not steal them!"
Everyone laughed at what he said, especially Jia Mu, whose face was full of wrinkles and laughed like a chrysanthemum.
Mrs. Liu said it herself, and at the end, she couldn't help laughing out loud. It turns out that Mrs. Xu loves crabs the most, especially the fattest lake crabs in autumn.She not only loves to eat, but also likes to pull others to eat, and she is not happy if others don't eat.
Everyone in Xifu knew about her problem.Mother Jia laughed and said intermittently: "You are not allowed to force your sister-in-law to eat crabs!"
Mrs. Wang has also been married to Jia's family for several years, and she was dragged by Mrs. Xu. At first, she didn't know why Mrs. Xu was so enthusiastic, and she suspected that she had some bad intentions.After the banquet, Jia Min secretly explained to her, and Madam Wang slowly let go of her doubts.However, Mrs. Wang pursed her lips, she still didn't understand what was so funny.It's just that everyone laughed, so she covered her mouth with a veil and smiled gracefully.
Mrs. Xu pretended to be annoyed: "What a cruel person, I'm not happy to invite you to eat crabs. I'm really mad at you!" Twisted away.There was a laugh behind him.
He ordered the maids near the gazebo, "Send some jugs of warm wine to the old ladies, light sweet-scented osmanthus wine, and some fruit wines." After the maids answered, they asked the maid following behind Amber who had just come to report: "Which room are you from? What's the matter? Is it so important?" Mrs. Xu was a little dissatisfied, what's the matter, to disturb her banquet guests.Fortunately, only people from the West Mansion were invited this time. If there were any other distinguished guests, they would inevitably be dissatisfied with the neglect of the Ningguo Mansion.
That servant girl was in Jia Zhen's room, her face was pale, panicked, seeing his wife getting angry, she knelt down in fright: "Servant, this servant is Zhen, the servant is in Uncle Zhen's room, Aunt Tao called the servant over."
Mrs. Xu frowned, not understanding what her son's aunt asked her to do, so she couldn't help raising her eyebrows and asked: "What's the matter with Aunt Tao?" The last two words were bitten particularly hard.
The servant girl trembled even more, faltering, unable to speak, and finally, she just said: "Madam, please go and take a look." As she spoke, she cried and kowtowed.
Xu has always been a considerate person, the maid was only twelve or thirteen years old, saw her kowtow hard, twice, her forehead was broken, she couldn't bear it, so she hurriedly asked Liuli to help her up.Fearing that something happened to Aunt Tao, Mrs. Xu ordered Amber to complain to the old lady of the West Mansion first, and then asked Pearl to order some side dishes directly from the kitchen, and then looked at Shan Shan.
Shan Shan understood, and hurried to Aunt Tao's yard with a few maidservants.
Seeing this, Xu felt a little relieved.Coral is what she relies on the most. Hu Po and the others take care of personal things, but Coral helps Xu take care of the inner courtyard of Ningguo Mansion.Xu believed that a married daughter-in-law would inevitably put her husband and children first, so she valued her maidservant more than those married daughters-in-law and mother-in-law.Coral was picked out by her to control the daughter-in-law in charge.Sending her to work, Xu felt very relieved.
When Mrs. Xu returned to the pavilion on the rockery in Huifang Garden, cage after cage of crabs had been steamed, but everyone was warming the wine.Seeing her coming, Mrs. Wang smiled and said, "We are still guessing when you will come. If you don't come, we won't wait for you!"
Jia's mother also laughed and scolded: "Hurry up and take a seat, leave the guests and go on your own, you should be punished! You should be punished!"
As she said that, Mother Jia was about to pour wine for her, and Mrs. Liu quickly took it and filled up the small and exquisite white jade wine glass, and several people urged her to drink it.
Mrs. Xu was about to say three glasses of self-punishment, when Mrs. Liu's wine glass was brought to his mouth.Xu had no choice but to drink it down.Both Liu and Wang are daughters-in-law, and their children are not yet married, and there are times when it is very lively, and all the elder relatives present are present, so they have no scruples.
Mrs. Liu poured several glasses of wine with a smirk, until Mrs. Xu was a little dizzy. Only then did Mrs. Xu wake up: "It's already three glasses! It's already three glasses! Don't drink me any more!"
Only then did Liu give up regretfully.She had been in contact with Mrs. Xu before she left the cabinet. After all these years, I don't know how much she drinks.What's more, the sweet-scented osmanthus wine and fruit wine they drank were newly brewed in the past few years, and if they were not intoxicating, Xu was just pretending to be dizzy and begging for mercy.
Mrs. Wang was pregnant, so she didn't want to make too much movement, she only smiled slightly, drank two sips of warm fruit wine, and sat quietly by the side, looking more like a sister-in-law than Mrs. Liu.
After a lot of laughing and banter, and several drinking orders back and forth, Xu talked about the business after enjoying himself.
"Miss Min, why didn't you come here today?"
Wang continued: "Sister Min is about to reach Ji, now, she's getting to know the housekeeper!"
Learning what the housekeeper does, everyone knows that Jia Min is not here, so they all laughed happily.
"Speaking of which, Miss Min's concubine will be in February next year, right?" Xu asked casually, "Is there anyone for Zhengbin?"
Everyone in Xifu looked at her and smiled.
Xu was a little ashamed, "Why are you laughing. If you keep doing this, I won't say anything!"
Mother Jia has the most say in this matter, "Nephew and daughter-in-law, who do you choose?"
Having said everything, Mrs. Xu didn't hold back anymore, and simply said openly: "It's not that I have any candidate, it's Princess Nan'an. You also know that my natal sister-in-law has a good relationship with Princess Nan'an. She It's on my head."
Mother Jia expressed surprise at this: "Although we are the same four princes and eight princes, we have rarely seen each other since the Duke of the country retired, but we still have friendship? Why didn't Princess Nan'an come to me directly?"
This statement is actually not correct, Jia Daishan no longer cares about things, Jia She and Liu Shi are all in charge of the Jia family, and Liu Shi doesn't know about these things, just giving New Year's gifts as usual.It's just that the relationship between the four kings and eight fathers was never on the surface, but Jia She knew that the four kings and eight fathers took jujube pills, so he didn't get close to them anymore.
Jia's mother doesn't often go out to socialize. Liu's occasionally attends gatherings at her mother's house. They are all from a scholarly family and have no intersection with the noble circle. Wang's has not been taken by anyone in the past few years, and she is pregnant again. It's not easy to post a post rashly, so I passed around handkerchiefs to test Rongfu's intentions.If he is willing, it means that the Rongguo Mansion is still moving closer to the nobles. If he is not willing, after Jia Daishan dies, the Rongguo Mansion may be in a difficult situation for a while.
Mrs. Xu said a little amusedly, "Who said that the old lady doesn't go out recently?" Ningrong Second Mansion, also known as Mrs. Xu, has often attended the gatherings of ladies and ladies in the capital recently, and Jia Zhen is about to get married. To find a candidate for a daughter-in-law.
Mother Jia was the most impatient with those social gatherings, so she said: "You all know that I don't like to go out.——Concubine Nan'an is willing, I am naturally happy, and I want you to be the sounding board again."
Xu is obviously very happy.There are some trivial words again, and I will not narrate them again.It was only said that when the banquet was over, Mrs. Xu whispered to Mrs. Liu: "Come tomorrow, I have something to tell you."
Mother Jia and the others didn't know that they had something to say. The next day Mrs. Liu came to ask for resignation, saying that she would go to Dongfu to ask her sister-in-law about sewing, and Mother Jia would agree.Otherwise, can she still be locked up?
"What did you want to say yesterday?"
The author has something to say: After a busy afternoon, I finally sent out the signing contract. As soon as I started eating, I drank crock pot soup and ate a big bowl of noodles according to my previous appetite, but I was actually full... I got it... I got it... I got it...
If this is the cost of losing weight from 70 to 66...→_→Then I will eat less next time_(:з」∠)_
Huh, until today, the previous chapters have finally been replaced!So excited!Flowers, flowers!
☆, the extremely expensive Yuanchun
"Since you asked, I'll tell you directly." Xu smiled and said, "What do you think of my son Jia Zhen?"
Mrs. Liu thought about it, and gave her evaluation: "I have studied with my father-in-law in the past few years, and I have made great progress in dealing with people. I heard from Hu'er that Zhen'er will go to the hospital for the exam, and she will be a scholar."
Mrs. Liu also watched Jia Zhen grow up, and Mrs. Xu didn't hide it, and said bluntly: "If you ask me, Zhen'er can be regarded as a young talent in the capital."
"In terms of family background, his father is a first-class general of the gods. If the title is passed on to Zhen'er, there will always be a third-class general."
"In terms of future, Zhen'er will go to Jinling now, and her fame as a scholar will not be far away."
"In terms of character, although Zhen'er was spoiled by me a few years ago, she was fortunate enough to be taught by Rong Guogong in the past few years, and her temper has also restrained."
After saying the above long sentence in one breath, Xu finally expressed his original intention: "I heard that your natal sister-in-law has a niece, I wonder if there is a marriage?"
As early as when Mrs. Xu asked her what she thought of Jia Zhen, Mrs. Liu seemed to realize that she was 16 years old, and it was time to say goodbye.
When Mrs. Xu listed Jia Zhen's benefits one by one, Mrs. Liu almost burst out of laughter. How could she sell her son like this?However, Mrs. Xu has such a straightforward temperament, and what she said was the truth, so Mrs. Liu didn't interrupt her, and listened to it with a smile.
When Mrs. Xu asked about her niece, Mrs. Liu couldn't help bowing down: "You, my natal sister-in-law's niece, there is only one, and she is the youngest daughter of Mr. Gu, the servant of the household department. Now it is the year of cardamom. Thirteen or fourteen years old), there are still two years left to reach Ji, so you are thinking about it?"
"There are hundreds of girls in a family who are begging, so they should be settled early so that others won't be able to get there first."
Mrs. Liu pointed at her and laughed: "Are you ashamed to say that other people will come first?"
Mrs. Xu was not annoyed, she just said, "You haven't answered my question yet."
"You are asking the right person when you ask me."
"Master Gu has only this one prostitute daughter under his knees. It can be said that his love is like a treasure. When I was a girl at home, I saw her. She is naturally unmarried now. Who can be earlier than you?" Mrs. Liu joked.Fifteen and Ji, girls in Dazhou usually get married at the age of sixteen or seventeen, and it is indeed a bit early to discuss marriage at the age of 13.
"However, there are so many noble girls in the capital, how did you notice her?"
"My master told me long ago that the daughter-in-law I choose for Zhen'er should be chosen from a family of poets and books. She must be able to control Zhen'er. I don't dare to think about the daughters of those family members. Search in the homes of people who are similar to us."
Xu explained: "Didn't my natal sister-in-law invite us wives to taste this year's new tea a few days ago? I happened to meet her at the banquet. I saw her such a neat girl, and I couldn't love her, so I just Pay attention to inquire. This girl has a good character and happens to have something to do with you, so why don't I just come to you?"
Mrs. Liu was a little embarrassed: "But Zhen'er is sixteen now, right? The daughters of the Gu family have always married late, and my natal sister-in-law also stayed until she left the cabinet."
Mrs. Xu immediately said: "That's no problem. Zhen'er is going to be a Jinshi. My husband said he's not ready yet." The next autumn will be three years later. Unlikely.
Having said all this, Mrs. Liu also felt that Jia Zhen was really good, and said, "Then I will ask my natal sister-in-law for you. However, I have agreed that if it can be done, I still have to take care of Mrs. Gu." .”
Xu couldn't help laughing, "Just ask for me, whether or not the marriage will work out depends on the woman."
The two talked again, and Mrs. Liu wanted to go back to see how the butler Jia Min was doing, so she left.
Mrs. Xu sent her to Yimen, and graciously told her: "If it doesn't work, you have to ask me why. I love his daughter very much, and I can talk about anything that can be discussed."
Mrs. Liu smiled and nodded, thinking to herself, go back and inquire carefully, what did the daughter of the Gu family do to make her so rare.
I don't want to mention this matter. In the year of the Grand Competition, not only Jia Zhen went back to the college for the exam, but Jia Zheng will also end this year, and it will still be Qiu Wei.Jia Zheng had already passed the exam once, and the Jia family was busy and not chaotic. Except for Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang who were eagerly looking forward to it, everyone else didn't care.Jia Amnesty was in the mood of watching a joke. You know, Jia Zheng didn't pass the examination until Jia Daishan's death.
Jia Daishan's mood was a bit complicated when Jia Zheng ended today.But seeing the elder son's look of waiting to see the joke, can he speculate that Zheng'er still failed this time?He sighed and continued to lecture Jia Hu.
Jia Hu sat upright, now his homework is no longer as easy as it was when Jia Zhen was there, he gets up at Yin time ([-]:[-] am to [-]:[-] am) every day, practice martial arts, practice calligraphy, and memorize books.At the end of Chenshi (seven to nine in the morning), that is, around nine o'clock, Jia Daishan came to give him a lecture.Until the beginning of Youshi (five o'clock in the afternoon), take a nap for an hour in the middle.
Today I'm talking about "Book of Changes", but it's just a beginning, and I'm talking about "Yuan, Heng, Li, and Zhen".Jia Hu keenly noticed that Jia Daishan was absent-minded.However, Jia Hu felt relieved when he thought that today was the day for Qiu Wei to enter the arena.
Qiu Wei had nothing to say, except that Jia's mother was equally anxious, and the servants also boasted that Mr. Zheng would win. Nine days later, Jia Zheng came out with the same face.Of course, after the results of Qiu Wei came out, Jia Zheng also lost his reputation.
The servants of Jia's family were in a hurry, because "Master Zheng couldn't bear this blow, he vomited blood and fell into a coma."When the news reached Lixiangyuan, Jia Daishan and Jia Hu had lunch.Although Jia Daishan was disappointed, he went to comfort his younger son.As a nephew, Jia Hu also went to condolences.
Jia Hu looked coldly at Jia Zheng lying on the bed in a lifeless state, and felt that he was a bit pitiful.The feeling of being defeated is not so pleasant.This is not just a denial of the results of years of hard study in the cold window.If you fail the imperial examination, you cannot become an official.Think about it, if you can't graduate, you won't be able to find a job, which means no financial income.In particular, Jia Zheng was the second son, he had no title of title, only the fame of a scholar, and his family was divided equally, which was only a little better than that of a commoner.
Jia Hu felt sympathetic, but he didn't feel that his family should give up his title, and he didn't intend to persuade his parents to give up targeting the second wife.Because Mrs. Wang was looking at him with a cold look.
Not yours, definitely not yours.If you dare to reach out, your claws will be chopped off.
It seems that Jia Hu is a gentleman, but in fact he is not a good person.He disdains to compete with Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang on the matter of the inner house, but he is not afraid of being plotted against him.
After watching Jia Zheng, Jia Daishan indicated that he would not be in class today.Just as Jia Zhen came back from Jinling yesterday, Jia Hu went to Dongfu to meet him.
"Brother Zhen, have you been admitted as a scholar?"
Before seeing him, he heard his voice first, and before Jia Zhen saw her cousin Hu, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, he was the first to steal her voice.
Jia Zhen didn't take it seriously, and was used to Jia Hu being the dominant one when the two got along.His brows were full of joy, "Of course, after this year, I will go to the Imperial College to attend classes."
Seeing doubts on Jia Hu's face, he took the initiative to explain: "My father is a first-class general, and he has a place in the Imperial College."
Jia Hu nodded, Jia Zheng was also in the Guozijian, so he should be using Jia Daishan's quota.
Interrupting the reminiscence that Jia Zhen had just said, Jia Hu asked Jia Zhen to silently write the questions of the college examination.Then do the questions on the spot, and Jia Zhen invigilates the exam.Let Jia Zhen write her answer sheet silently again.Comparing the answer sheets of the two, Jia Hu was very satisfied.
After reading Jia Hu's answer sheet, Jia Zhen was surprised to find that Cousin Hu's strategy was very different from that before he went to Jinling. ! You have improved your knowledge again! How can you improve so fast!"
Then Jia Hu used reasons such as "After you left, my grandfather taught alone, and the time was longer".
Knowing that it was just an excuse, Jia Zhen still said that her uncle was really sad (gan) heart (de) sick (piao) crazy (liang).
Jia Hu smiled and remained silent.The two looked at each other, knowing each other well.
The two talked about the scenery and customs in the south of the Yangtze River, and Jia Zhen also hinted that when Jia Hu was a little older, she would take him to see and see, and got a look that seemed to be a smile but not a smile.
Saying goodbye to Jia Zhen, Jia Hu gave Jia Daishan the test questions and answer sheets, and made some changes under Jia Daishan's guidance.Today's homework is a similar topic posed by Jia Daishan.
On the first day of the first lunar month, Mrs. Wang struggled to give birth to a girl.Because this girl had a very good life, Jia's mother was so happy that she named her "Yuanchun" on the spot, and raised her under her knees. What she ate and used was nothing compared to Jia Ying, the eldest daughter of the big house. Not bad.
Jia Amnesty was somewhat dismissive, but was persuaded by Mrs. Liu, "It's just a girl, and it will be a dowry in the future. If you feel that the second wife is too flattering, there is no need. The status of the second wife is not raised by girls. of."
These words were so reasonable that Jia Amnesty could not refute them.He has another dark thought: the better Yuan Chun is now, the more sad it will be for him to be sent to the palace by the old lady as a maid in the future.Don't think he doesn't know, the old lady will say from time to time, "My Min'er is worthy of a princess", even though she is only a side concubine.
Mother Jia publicized the title of "extremely precious fate" for the purpose of sending Yuan Chun to the royal family in the future.
In the blink of an eye, it's February, Jia Min and Ji's day.
Jia Min's ceremony was held in Rongxi Hall.
The guest of honor is Princess Nan'an.
"Book of Rites Nei Ze": "Women are allowed to marry,...the tenth year is five years old." The fifteenth year of a woman is "Jiji", also known as "Yannian". After reaching Ji, a woman can marry.
Jiamu, Liushi and Wangshi are waiting for guests in the east.When the guests came, Mother Jia warned the two daughters-in-law in a low voice, "Today is Min'er and Ji's day, and I don't want any mistakes. Mrs. Liu, go and check the utensils, Mrs. Wang, go and see Min'er."
The two agreed, and a dark light flashed in Mrs. Wang's eyes.
Thinking about her Jiji, there were only a few sisters who were good friends, and they gave some handkerchiefs made by themselves.The old lady of the Wang family never asked, let alone held a ceremony for her.
She is a concubine, so she didn't think there was anything wrong with this treatment, at least she married a good family, who is many times better than her first sister.As a result, when she arrived at Jia's house, Jia Min's preciousness made her jealous of her day by day.
When eating, Jia Min sat while she stood, serving her meals.
While chatting, Jia Min was talking about poems and songs, and she listened to them, holding hands from time to time.
On weekdays, Jia Min couldn't stand a little anger, Jia Min's eyes were red, and she would be ridiculed by her mother-in-law.
What Jia Min eats, uses, and wears are all good things Mrs. Wang has never seen before, but only heard from the old lady of the Wang family.Mother Jia opened the storeroom, and Jia Min picked and chose at will, but Mrs. Wang was guarded, and someone followed her into the storeroom, as if she was a thief.Once, when Mrs. Liu led the two to open the treasury, she heard Jia Min whispering to Mrs. Liu: "Sister-in-law, why is the second sister-in-law like someone who has never seen the world? The old treasury at home hasn't been opened yet." , she just looked straight in the eye."
She is a concubine and is despised by others.
She is a prostitute, honored by gold and noble by jade.
That's why she couldn't like Jia Min anyway.
The ceremony has begun.
Jia Daishan got up and said a few words briefly.
The praiser came out first, and it was Jia Min's handkerchief. Niu Guogong's second daughter was engaged last year, and the wedding will be in June this year.Niu Xin washed her hands, went to the west and stood there.
Then Jia Min came out, dressed in black (black) cloth, with vermilion brocade edges, pure and beautiful in color.This is Caiyi, which makes Jia Min innocent.Jia Min walked to the middle, faced south, and saluted the guests.Then sit facing west.
The praiser symbolically combed Jia Min's hair with a comb.
Initially added.
Concubine Nan'an walked in front of Jia Min, and she chanted loudly: "On the auspicious day of the month, I will start to add yuan clothes. Abandon your young ambitions, follow your success and become a virtue. Shoukao Weiqi, Jieer Jingfu." Symbolizes Those who are naturally ji are right ji.
Jia Min listened solemnly.From today, she is an adult.
Jia Min went back to the east room and changed into a light and elegant skirt.
Jia Min bowed deeply to her parents to express her gratitude to her parents for their upbringing.
Mother Jia's eye circles were red. She was a small ball at that time, but now she has grown into a girl who walks lightly.
Jia Daishan, who was dressed in Xuanduan deep clothes, looked at this old woman, who was also his only prostitute, with emotion.Today is also the day of Chun Wei, the boy of the Lin family, and he will come to propose marriage to Min'er after he gets his name on the gold list in the palace examination.
Two plus.
"The auspicious moon and the chen are Shen Erfu. Respect Er's majesty, Shu Shende. My sister will live forever and receive Hu Fu forever."
Remove the hairpin, put the hairpin on the hairpin, and put on a dignified and bright skirt with deep clothes.
Jia Min bowed to the guest of honor.Concubine Nan'an looked at her lovingly.
Three plus.
"With the righteousness of the year, with the order of the month, Xianjiaer obeys. Brothers are present, so that they can become Jude. The yellow scorpion has no boundaries, and it is celebrated by the sky."
Go to the hairpin, add the hairpin crown, and put on a graceful dress with large sleeves.
This time, I bowed in the direction of the imperial city.
Remove the display of Jili, and set up a feast of wine and wine in the west.
"Sweets and sweets are thick, and you can recommend them to make you fragrant. Worship and sacrifice to determine Erxiang. The rest of the heavens will never be forgotten." Jia Min saluted and took the wine.After entering the table, sprinkle some wine on the ground, touch your lips with the wine, and then put the wine on the table.Take the meal offered by You Si and eat some.
"Etiquette is prepared, the moon is auspicious, and the word is announced. The word is Kong Jia, and the scholar is suitable. It is suitable for the fake, and it will be protected forever. It is called Jia Minfu."
Jia Min bowed to Bin, "Although Min is not sensitive, I dare not only serve you late at night."
Jia Min knelt in front of her parents and listened to their teachings.
Jia Daishan exhorted her with a complicated expression.
Jia Min listened quietly, and replied, "Although my son is not sensitive, I dare not only accept it!" After speaking, she bowed deeply.
Since then, Jia Min has grown up.She will not only be a daughter to her parents, sister to her brother, but will soon be a wife to her husband and mother to her children.
With infinite longing for the future, Jia Min received the news of Lin Ruhai's high school prospect.
The author has something to say: Today's word count is more than 4000, and the new chapter is fat~
Dear friends, what do you think of me fixing the update time at 09:30 in the morning?Or post it when it's finished?
☆, Lin Ruhai exploring flowers (catching insects)
On the Golden Luan Hall, the middle-aged emperor held an answer sheet in his hand and stared at it intently.All the ministers and students in the hall were silent.
This answer sheet was selected by several examiners of the palace examination. If there is no accident, the answer sheet will be the number one scholar.
After reading it, the emperor pondered for a moment, picked up the other two test papers, and read: "Wu Bozong, Guo Chong, stand up and let me have a look."
Among nearly a hundred students, a calm middle-aged man with a long beard stood up, "Student Wu Bozong, I have met the emperor." A younger boy with a stern manner stood up, "Student Guo Chong. I have seen the emperor."
Looking at the young man, the emperor always felt that his face was familiar. Thinking of his surname, he couldn't help turning his eyes to Mr. Guo Ge.Mr. Guo Ge stroked his beard and came out with a smile, "Back to the emperor, Guo Chong is the direct descendant of this minister."
"Oh?" The emperor sized him up with great interest, and found that the grandfather and grandson were indeed somewhat alike, "As expected of Zhongping's grandson, the tiger father has no dogs!"
Guo Zhongping thanked the emperor with a smile, and returned to the courtiers with a smug old face.Let his colleagues shoot at him with envious and jealous eyes.
The emperor asked again: "Where is Lin Hai?"
Lin Ruhai came out calmly: "Student Lin Hai, I have met the emperor."
"Your father is Lin Sen?" The emperor vaguely remembered the man who cleared the dust, and his ability was also very good, but it was a pity that he died too early.The emperor thought for a while, and found that Lin Hai was born this year.
"Exactly." Lin Ruhai lowered his head, not daring to look directly at Tian Yan, and replied neither humble nor overbearing.
The emperor thought carefully, Lin Hai gave the best answer, Wu Bozong came second, and Guo Chong came third.However, in the recent dispute between the DPRK and China, the side led by Guo Ge is more sympathetic to him.Since ancient times, Tanhua has mostly been characters with outstanding literary talents and graceful looks. Compared with the middle-aged Wu Bozong, the emperor is of course more inclined to Lin Hai.
"Guo Chong should be the number one scholar."
"Wu Bozong is the second place."
"Lin Hai is Tanhua."
The three thanked each other, but the emperor still had something to do, so he ordered the eunuch to read out the imperial edict he had just written.
The eunuch read in a shrill voice: "Following heaven's destiny, the emperor's decree said: Today's science explores Hualinhai, with noble character, dragon and phoenix appearance, when it is suitable for marriage, you should choose a virtuous woman to match. I heard that the daughter of Rong Guogong Jia Daishan Jia Min is skillful and generous, gentle and honest, and has outstanding appearance. The Queen Mother and I are very pleased to hear about it. It is worth Jia Min to be in Yu's boudoir, and Lin Hai can be said to be made by nature. Two people, choose a good day to get married. This is it."
The huge surprise overwhelmed Lin Ruhai.A few days ago, Rong Guogong said that there was a surprise for him, but he didn't expect it to be an imperial decree for marriage.
The emperor usually doesn't care about the marriage of the minister's daughter. This imperial decree was indeed requested by Jia Daishan.However, this is also due to Lin Ruhai's own credit. After all, it is a beautiful thing for the emperor to marry the daughter of Tanhua and the Duke of the State. It is for the sake of the Duke of the State that he bestows a marriage on a person who is a second-class or a Jinshi. .
Lin Ruhai accepted the order.
This is not just a marriage decree, it means that Lin Ruhai has already entered the eyes of the emperor.Lin Ruhai knew that he couldn't compare with the No. [-] scholar backed by Ge Lao, but he was even better than the second place.
Before leaving, Lin Ruhai looked at Jia Daishan gratefully. This was the Jia family's first investment in the Lin family.
Jia Daishan nodded to him.
"Brother Ruhai, among the four great joys in life, Brother Ruhai gets the second, wouldn't it be great!"
"Brother Ruhai, you are a gold medalist, and you have been granted a marriage by the emperor. You were fooled at the Qionglin banquet!"
"Brother Ruhai, you have to treat us to a wedding wine!"
"Exactly! Exactly!"
Several students who were close friends with Lin Ruhai surrounded him, and Lin Ruhai kept talking with them.
Finally, everyone left, and the three of Yijia had time to talk.
Guo Chong's description is also quite embarrassing.He was clean by nature, and was surrounded by a bunch of people just now, and now his brows were almost knotted.Seeing Lin Ruhai coming over, he first congratulated: "Congratulations! It seems that our Tanhualang has a master!" The teasing tone made those who thought this person was cold and difficult to get along with, and they would be surprised.
Wu Bozong is not as popular as the two of them, but this person is an open-minded person.The three of them have been in contact for a long time, and it is also fate that they can be in the first class together.He was really happy for the two friends, and frequently persuaded them to drink at the Qionglin banquet.In the end, all three were sent home drunk.
In the morning, I greeted my parents and met Jia Min on the road.
The news of Lin Ruhai's high school prospect and being given a marriage had spread to Jia's family yesterday, so when Jia Hu said congratulations, Jia Min's face turned red with embarrassment.
Jia Hu looked at Jia Min who was blushing, and suddenly remembered that this was the mother of Fairy Crimson Pearl.He broke into a smile. After staying in Dazhou for nearly ten years, he almost forgot all about "Dream of Red Mansions", which he didn't have a deep impression of.However, the mother of Lin Daiyu, one of the heroines in the N-corner relationship dispute, still remembers it.
Jia Hu didn't intend to say anything more. Once Jia Min appeared in the book, he was a dead person. He didn't think he was the Holy Father. If he transmigrated into the book, he would change someone's fate. What's more, what could he do? ?At this time, Jia Min was just his aunt.
I still don't like Dafang's aunt very much.
Jia Hu was a little disdainful, no matter what happened to Dafang, she never harmed her.
For a moment, Jia Min didn't know what to say, looking at Jia Hu's indifferent face, she was a little at a loss.
Previously, Jia Min always thought that Jia Hu had such a cold personality, except that he was calmer in front of his father who taught him, and he was more intimate in front of his eldest brother and sister-in-law, he was always so cold and indifferent to everyone else.When Jia Hu was still young, Jia Min once thought that his nephew didn't like her, but luckily he was very sad for a long time.At that time, there were only their two children in the family, and Jia Min treated this little nephew like a younger brother in his heart.Later, it was discovered that Jia Hu was indifferent to everyone other than his parents, and Jia Min was slowly relieved.The successive births of Jia Zhu and Jia Ying drew her attention away.
After seeing Jia Hu's doting on Jia Ying and the incident with the second brother, Jia Min couldn't help but have a new understanding.She has always known that the elder sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law are not getting along, and there are also conflicts between the mother and sister-in-law.He had never thought deeply about the reason before, but now Jia Min has a vague concept in his mind.
The eldest brother and sister-in-law, Jia Hu and Jia Ying, are a family.The second elder brother and second sister-in-law, Jia Zhu and Yuan Chun, are from another family.
Jia Min looked at Jia Hu firmly.He didn't see Ying Er's pampering in his eyes, he didn't see the tenderness of his parents and grandfather, he looked at her without respect, as if he was looking at someone who didn't matter.
That's right, I've never gotten along with each other, so where's the feeling?Jia Min laughed at herself, she should tease Yinger, who is learning to talk, and Yuan Chun, who is not yet able to stand up.
Seeing that Jia Min first looked at him without saying a word for a long time, and then hurriedly said goodbye.Jia Hu's heart was trembling, and he couldn't figure out the reason.Jia Hu shook his head, he still had to go to Lixiangyuan to attend classes.
After meeting Jia Min this time, Jia Hu rarely saw her.Sometimes Ying'er would whisper in his ear, why didn't aunt come to play with her today?According to my mother, my aunt is getting married and is busy embroidering wedding dresses.Ying'er was a little upset, Jia Hu brought a lot of novelties from outside to coax her, and she forgot about her aunt.
Na Cai, ask the name, Najib, Na Zheng, please period.
On the seventh day of August, it is advisable to get married.
Jia Min married into the Lin family.
Today is the time when the three dynasties returned home. Jia Min went to the inner courtyard with Liu Shi, while Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng waited in the study.
Soon, Lin Ruhai came over under the guidance of his servants.
The three chatted happily. Lin Ruhai heard that the elder brother's eldest son was nearly ten years old, so he couldn't help asking, "Why don't you see your eldest nephew?"
This morning, Jia Amnesty asked Jia Hu if he wanted to meet your Uncle Lin.Lin Ruhai is a good candidate, and it is also good for Jia Hu to get his advice.Who knew that Jia Hu vetoed it straight away.Not knowing what the kid was thinking, Jia She pulled his beard angrily.
Hearing her brother-in-law's question, Jia She said with a haha, "Hu'er said yesterday that she would come and wait for Uncle Lin, who knows that she woke up a little bit bad this morning, the child is thinking about being sick, and I'm sick to you. Let me take the blame for him."
Obviously I saw Jia Hu go to pay his respects this morning with great vigor, Jia Zheng said in disbelief, "Brother is looking for a reason and also looking for a distraction."
On the surface, Jia Zheng also sighed, Hu'er usually worked too hard, she shouldn't be reading so late at night.Then he asked someone to bring Jia Zhu over.
Jia Zhu was studying with her husband at this time. Lin Ruhai took the exam and found that although the generation of the elder brother in Rongguo Mansion had no achievements in imperial examinations, Jia Hu and Jia Zhu were quite talented.Lin Ruhai couldn't help sighing, there is someone following Mr. Rong.
Those people were talking and laughing happily in the study, but Jia Hu tried to persuade his grandfather.
Recently, Jia Daishan had some coughs. Jia Hu thought that in the book Rong Guogong also died young.
