The husband of the Red Chamber is upright

"Don't underestimate Brother Lin. Although I am seven or eight years older than him, I grew up with him. If I didn't have him to remind me when I was young, I'm afraid... Jia Lin is no better than Jia Zhu. He didn't have a specially invited great Confucian to teach him. He only got enlightened when he was six years old, and then went to study ethnology. In the study of ethnology on weekdays, I didn't see how clever he was, so he took advantage of his aunt's pregnancy. If he secretly settled the preparation for the exam, he would really fly into the sky! Moreover, if Baoyu’s psychic jade was not there, his matter would still be discussed in the house for a long time. At that time, can auntie forgive him? However, Baoyu's birth really diluted the rumors about him! How do you think those rumors that he took advantage of Baoyu's blessing to get into the small and medium-sized Sanyuan came out? He didn't make it himself, this calm Mindfulness is hard to come by. Now that he is in the Imperial College, his future can be regarded as certain, but there is no manpower to suppress him." When it comes to Jia Lin, Jia Lian's tone is full of admiration.

Wang Xifeng originally thought that Jia Lin was blessed with Baoyu's good luck, but now that Jia Lian said so well, in Wang Xifeng's heart, both Jia Zhu and Jia Baoyu came to compete with her husband. The knight, at this moment, immediately lost seven points of love for Jia Baoyu, so Jia Lin was highlighted.Wang Xifeng frowned and thought for a while, then said: "I can't help you guys with things outside, I will help brother Lin look after Aunt Zhou in the future. It doesn't cost me anything."

"He, Jia Lin, is a person who repays kindness. If you can help him take care of his aunts, you will be able to repay us in the future. You look at the people in the second room and say that Jia Zhu is smart, but he is too temperamental. Gu Gao, even if he is admitted to be the number one scholar, so what, if he becomes an official in the future, he may not be able to go far, not to mention, he will not have the life of the number one scholar! This girl, Yuan Chun, was raised by her grandmother with great efforts, and she will definitely be sent there in the future. It's just that although she is the eldest lady of our Rongguo Mansion in name, she is just the daughter of a fifth-rank official family, and she is not qualified to participate in the draft, so she can only be sent in under the name of Xiaoxuan... The ones chosen by the young people are all servants, and even if she has a good fortune in the future, there is still a stone tablet at the gate of the harem that says she must not interfere in politics! Besides, Baoyu, who is favored by my grandmother as an eyeball, is so young. What tricks do you see? That piece of jade came here too, who knows if it's a god or a monster..." Jia Lian said these last words in a very low voice, and Wang Xifeng quickly covered his mouth.Now, Wang Xifeng doesn't trust these people in her yard very much, lest this word will be spread.

Jia Lian grabbed Wang Xifeng's hand and touched it with his lips. This gesture was a bit frivolous, but it coaxed a smile on Wang Xifeng's face.Jia Lian felt that he had made sense of his daughter-in-law and felt better, so he said, "I'm not hiding it from you. I'm not a student. I still think about donating to an official in the future. It's best to make up for it." Really lacking, just a seventh-rank sesame official, I also recognize it, at least I have hope... Don't look at me running outside every day, it seems that I am helping the second uncle's family to manage the general affairs, in fact, I am also making friends Connections. What Jia Lin said is right, dudes also have tricks!"

"I think Brother Lin has given you a ecstasy soup, and he is the one who speaks and keeps his mouth shut." Wang Xifeng scolded, and she was actually very relieved when she heard Jia Lian's words. After all, her husband was planning his future.Wang Xifeng was raised as a son when she was at home, so naturally she has some knowledge. She knows that if a poor child with no foundation becomes a seventh-rank county magistrate, it may be difficult to get ahead, but for a family like them, as long as they With real deficiency, you can always climb up step by step.All of a sudden, Wang Xifeng felt that her mood had opened up a lot, but she suddenly thought of something, hesitated for a while, but still said it: "I once heard that my aunt had a chat with Zhou Rui's family next to her. There was a marriage contract and so on, and it involved my deceased grandfather. I don’t know what it was. It’s just that you kept mentioning Brother Lin just now, and I suddenly remembered this day... I guessed, Aunt probably wants to marry Brother Lin into the Qing Dynasty!"

"What?" Jia Lian was taken aback. If Mrs. Wang succeeded in her idea, once Jia Lin became a Qing citizen, let alone how talented he was, his life would be ruined.

"Don't worry, brother Lin is only old now, only eleven or twelve years old. Even if you marry him, you should wait until he is fourteen or five years old, otherwise, someone should poke his back. My aunt is the best Face, how can such a thing be done? There are at least three or four years to come, so if you think about it carefully, Lin Geer will not go to that step." Wang Xifeng rolled her eyes, Then she began to comfort Jia Lian, she had figured it out now, and her former intelligence was revealed again, "Besides, although Brother Lin is a concubine and didn't make the ranking, he is ranked third in terms of age after all, and there are still others on the top. With older brothers and sisters here, the discussion of marriage must come after Jia Zhu and Yuan Chun."

"You're right. I thought about it. Auntie is still waiting for Jia Zhu to have a try before proposing marriage to him. In this way, Jia Zhu's marriage should wait at least two years. However, no matter what, we You should also tell Jia Lin about this, so as to save him from being plotted against." Just as Jia Lian was talking, there was movement outside, and it turned out that it was Ping'er who brought Wang Xifeng a tonic.Jia Lian didn't stay any longer, and left without even looking at Ping'er.

When Wang Xifeng saw Ping'er, he thought of what Jia Lian had said to her, and he was naturally angry.However, now she doesn't trust the people in the yard very much, and Xiaochan can't take care of things, so she swallows this breath calmly, thinking about waiting a month before dealing with these sloppy things.

Here, after Jia Lian knew about Mrs. Wang's plan, she immediately sent a letter to Jia Lin.Jia Lin went through those hooks in her heart, and realized that she couldn't wait any longer. He had to try it out next time in the spring, otherwise he would definitely be overwhelmed by Mrs. Wang.

Originally, Jia Lin planned to wait for his next exam. After all, he was still young. Even if he got the first prize in the exam, he would be praised as a young talent at most, but it would be difficult for him to make a difference in the officialdom.This is one of them.The second is that, now that he is getting older, the princes below are staging a war of succession. At this time, the new petty officials and officials will become sacrificed cannon fodder if they are not careful. It is really too unsafe.But if Mrs. Wang really intends to marry him off, then he must get a good reputation this time, otherwise, once he becomes a Qing nationality, he will really have nothing.

The order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker!Jia Zheng was a self-proclaimed man who didn't want to get involved in the affairs of the inner courtyard. He told Jia Zheng about such pretentious things and just waited to be beaten.

Jia Lin sighed, and the next day it was slightly bright, and she took her four entourages to the Imperial College.

The four elders around Jia Lin are two pairs of brothers, Wu Fu and Xiao Qi are a pair of cousins, the sons of the Jia family.Chen Ping and Chen An are a pair of brothers. They were originally a pair of beggars in a ruined temple in the south of the capital.Among the four, Wu Fu is the oldest, and now he is sixteen. Although the shop run by Jia Lin is under Chen Ping's name, Wu Fu is in charge of the specific operations.

Second, Chen Ping, who is now fourteen, was sent by Jia Lin to learn some boxing skills.

Chen An again, now thirteen, he and nine-year-old Xiao Qi often follow Jia Lin.

The ancestors of Wu Fu and Xiao Qi entered the battlefield with the first generation of Rong Guogong, and their great-grandfather's friendship with the first generation of Rong Guogong is no less than that of Jiao Da in Ningguo Mansion.Jiao Da once recited the dying Ning Guogong from the pile of dead people.With no food to eat, he was hungry and went to steal something for his master to eat. He had no water to drink, so he drank horse urine by himself and gave half a bowl of water he got to drink to his master.It can be said that even if the merits of Wufu and Grandpa Xiaoqi are not greater than this, they are definitely not small.

Such characters, logically speaking, Wu Fu and Xiao Qi should have a high status among the servants of Rong Guo Mansion.It's just that there was another character in Wufu and Xiaoqi's family, who happened to be the big maid next to the old man, and later became a concubine. Although she didn't have a son and a half, she was always very favored.It's just that this woman's beauty is unlucky, and she left after serving the old man for a few years.

Originally, the grandfather of Wufu and Xiaoqi was the chief steward of the outer courtyard of Rongguo Mansion, and he was very respectable among the servants.As a result, after the old Duke passed away, Mother Jia still remembered the matter of that aunt in her heart, found an excuse to demote their family's errands, and sent them all to Zhuangzi.After a few years passed, the younger generation of servants in the mansion no longer knew about Li Guanshi back then.

However, the Li family has been operating in Rongguo Mansion for so many years, and when they were glorious, they would do things, pay attention to being kind to others, and give some favors more or less. There are still very well-connected among the servants of the generation.That's why Xiaoqi is very good at inquiring about news, basically he can know if there is any trouble in Jia's mansion.

Of course, if the master and his confidant were speaking privately, Xiao Qi would not be able to hear it.For example, if Wang Xifeng hadn't noticed this time and made Jia Lian remind him, I'm afraid Jia Lin still doesn't know that Mrs. Wang wants to marry him off.
