The Rose of the Red Chamber

This era is different from modern times.When modern people encounter such weddings and funerals, they just make a phone call or send a message.Sometimes, it's still the kind of group hair.

It is estimated that apart from a few important company leaders and colleagues, there are really few people who send invitations on a large scale.

After all... no time, no energy.

In ancient times, it was completely different.He is very particular about form and procedure.

Inviting guests must be delivered personally or by someone with status in the family, and then the person who has received the invitation must go or not go, and must reply solemnly, so that they can come to the banquet on the official day.

And the host family received the reply, and arranged seats according to their closeness and distance, and their status.It is the normal process of ancient banquets to take care of everything and make all the guests feel at home.

Of course, there are still some people who want to curry favor with the Lord's family.But these people are usually so courteous that they can't be seen by others, so they don't add trouble to the host's family.

It's like the kind in novels or film and television dramas, when someone suddenly comes to celebrate or something.It is estimated that they all don't understand etiquette or mess up the situation.

Don't think that when the emperor comes, it's not a mess.Although the emperor was honored to be able to attend the wedding, he was not the main character that people ignored.

When the emperor comes, there is really no marriage decree to make people feel useful.

The recognition given by the leader is really not the same thing as the whim inspection by the leader.

God knows if the reception is poor or the banquet is low-grade or beyond the status, it will be seen by the emperor.

Let's get back to the topic, let's just say that a guest without an invitation actually came outside the gate of the Lin Mansion today.

Seeing this situation, the servants who greeted the guests at the door quickly asked the identity of the visitor, and then sent someone into the mansion to notify.Which table should this guest without an invitation be arranged at?

Daiyu was startled when she heard this, and then asked who it was.The woman in charge who answered the question quickly said, "It's my aunt and uncle's cousin, the second master Lian and the second grandma Lian of Jia's family."

Daiyu and Tanchun were taken aback when they heard this, "Why did she go back to the capital?"

Tanchun thought for a while, touched his face, then smiled and said to Daiyu, "Sister Lin, go greet the guests, and I will go back to sit on the table over there."

Relatives of the Lin family and some members of the royal family were arranged at the main table today.

Tanchun and Liu Xianglian were not relatives of the main family, plus Liu Xianglian's official position, so Daiyu and Tanchun discussed it for a while, and arranged the two of them at the side table.

Of course, the couple sat in the male and female seats.

At this time Tanchun heard that Wang Xifeng was coming, although he was a little surprised, but not flustered.

how to say.

Not seen for many years, the girl has grown into a young woman.Tanchun gave birth to a baby.Her appearance and figure are no longer that of a girl in her early teens, and her immaturity and youthfulness can no longer be seen in her eyebrows and eyes.

After a few years, the mature charm and the long-opened eyebrows and eyes will not make people recognize her at a glance.

Moreover, she has been a Jiangling and Liujiang family for many years, not only the marriage decree of marriage can prove who she is, but even the several compliments from Emperor Qingfeng during the last southern tour can explain everything.

Can the emperor be wrong?

Naturally not.

Then there is no need to doubt who she is.

Daiyu knew what Tanchun meant, nodded her head to express her understanding, and went out to meet Wang Xifeng in person.

Wang Xifeng found out about Lin Li's wedding date on the way to the capital.Hurry up along the way, but still did not return to the capital ahead of schedule.

but,

Wang Xifeng lowered his eyes and smiled slightly.Wouldn't it be more satisfying for her to come here at this time?

When she left the capital, she went to her uncle's place.

With the help of her natal family, Jia Lian also got a real shortage.It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and her uncle died of illness.

After that, Jia Lian, who stood firm...

Fortunately, she gave birth to Jia Lian's eldest son and eldest daughter, otherwise, without the support of her natal family, what would happen to Jia Lian?

Thinking of this, Wang Xifeng felt that she should be more active and valuable.

Foreign officials have to return to the capital to report on their work once every three years.

A few times before, Wang Xifeng also followed Jia Lian back to the capital, and visited the three members of the Lin family.

Coming to Lin Li's wedding now, it doesn't make people feel too flattering.

Daiyu went up to meet her, and Sister Feng also came forward with a smile on her face.The cousin and sister-in-law entered the inner courtyard talking and laughing.

Since Sister Feng was from their natal family no matter what, Daiyu arranged people at the main table.

Oh, forgot to mention.Mrs. Xing and Xing Xiuyan, a girl from the Xing family, were also sitting at the main table.

This girl Xing is not only Mrs. Xing's niece, she is also Jia Cong's fiancée.

Female junior, holding a golden rooster.

Xing Xiuyan's age can be understood in this way.

Xing Xiuyan was born elegant and prudent, knowledgeable and courteous, able to endure poverty and keep wealth.When the former son came to the palace, he happened to catch Yingchun's eye, so he discussed with Mrs. Xing and hired him back to be Jia Cong's wife.

Even if Mrs. Xing and Jia Cong have a good relationship, they are still fake mothers and children.For the future, I am willing to marry Jia Cong a close wife.

When Jia Cong heard that Yingchun had brought this up on his own initiative, he didn't object.

He has seen Miss Xing's family before, but he is not tired of it.Especially the temperament of the whole body is also very good.

So the marriage was settled naturally.

As for Uncle Xing and Uncle Xing, they also moved into the Grand View Garden where Mrs. Xing lived, relying on their sister and daughter.

At this time, Mrs. Xing saw Daiyu leading Sister Feng in, and her face fell suddenly.But when he thought of the two of them being beaten in the end, there was a bit of complacency on their faces.

Looking at the niece and daughter-in-law sitting beside her, Mrs. Xing was indescribably happy.

Sister Feng was also taken aback when she saw Mrs. Xing.Suppressing the bitterness in her heart, Sister Feng raised her face and called out with a smile, "Ma'am".Then he sat down where Daiyu pointed out.

Mrs. Xing wanted to stab Sister Feng with words, but Lin Li didn't give her a chance.

Immediately, Lin Li's team came back in a hurry.

According to the royal regulations, the two of them were going to the princess mansion to worship.

After the etiquette was over, Lin Li returned to the Lin family next door with a group of relatives and friends.

Seeing this, Daiyu hurriedly ordered the kitchen staff to take the dishes.

The banquet started, and Daiyu, the aunt of the Lin family, and Yinglian, the god-aunt whom the Lin family recognized, acted as the hostesses, toasting at the table.

At Tanchun's place, because he didn't want to be famous, he had a good wedding banquet.

When Daiyu passed by her, she even patted her on the shoulder with her hand.

Let her slip back to laziness again.

Tanchun quietly shrugged his shoulders slightly, there is nothing he can do about it, the lucky ones don't need to be busy.

Daiyu glared at her, but Tanchun had no choice but to smile.After that, he went to recruit other female relatives.

Because of the existence of Mrs. Xing and Xing Xiuyan, Wang Xifeng's entire energy was attracted to these two people, so naturally she had no time to be distracted.

Wang Xifeng looked at Mrs. Xing, who was still beautiful and respected by others, and Xing Xiuyan, who could still be treated indifferently on this occasion, and the food and wine she ate became very bitter.

This kind of scenery, this kind of identity should belong to her.

It's a pity that the two of them did it together, and Mr. Jia also did it, and in the end it was completely done by someone else.

Once upon a time, they never put Jia Cong in their eyes.

Once upon a time, they never took Yingchun to heart.

Once upon a time, they never took the Xing family seriously.

Once again, when they really regarded the real father/father-in-law of the Jia family as their elder?

The title of family property that was thought to be a sure thing turned out to be someone else's, and that person is still sitting beside them.

Wang Xifeng didn't know how Jia Lian, who was sitting in the front yard, would feel when he saw Jia Cong.

Thinking about it, it wouldn't be much better than when she saw the Xing family and Xing Xiuyan.

It's really not much better, Jia Lian's experience over the years has only made his face less stiff and blackened...

When Jia Cong saw his brother who was originally his own brother but now turned into a cousin, he also had a lot of thoughts in his heart.

If it wasn't for this person who didn't take their master seriously, their master wouldn't just say adoptive.

"Second Brother Lian, are you safe?" This was the first time Jia Cong saw Jia Lian after the separation.

Since the separation of the family, Jia Amnesty issued an imperial decree to become a monk, and Yingchun arranged for Mrs. Xing and Jia Cong to go to Shandong early on.Jia Cong went to study, and Mrs. Xing went to study with him.Seriously escaped the madness of Jia's mother and the encumbrance of Jia's second wife when she lost power.

Later, when Jia Cong passed the exam, there was no longer Jia Mu and Jia's second wife who made their mothers jealous, so they returned to the capital with a lot of money.

As for the three members of the Xing family who entered the capital city, they followed Baoqin and others after the emperor's southern tour in the old year.

The last time when Jia Lian went to the capital to report on his duties, the Xing family and Jia Cong coincidentally were not in the capital.

Of course, even in the capital, Jia Lian might not necessarily visit the couple.

Jia Lian looked at the extraordinary man who seized the title in front of him, and said hello with a stiff smile.Then he turned his head and started talking to Lin Ruhai.

Jia Lian was afraid that if he looked at Jia Cong for a while, he might not be able to maintain his good demeanor.

Thinking of all the things at the beginning, what Jia Lian hated most was not Jia Cong, a fisherman who made a profit, but himself and Jia Amnesty who didn't give him a chance and gave up without saying a word.

Dear father and son...

Even if he has everything wrong, everything is bad, but there is always one good thing.Why didn't you give him a chance, didn't tell him once, just gave up on him, abandoned him.

Every time Jia Lian thought of this, she felt sad and felt very wronged.But Jia Lian never thought about whether he had given Jia Amnesty a chance to speak before adopting.

And based on the situation at the time, if Jia She really said it, would he believe it, would he turn around and tell Jia's mother, and then invite Jia She to scold and humiliate him?

Besides, the adoption at that time was nothing more than being drunk and confused, talking in a hurry, and rushing to do things.

Jia Cong may also understand Jia Lian's feelings. After all, this elder brother first lost his family property and title, and then was implicated by the second wife.So he continued to eat quietly.

And people in the capital who knew something about Jia's family would glance at these two from time to time, and then turn away as if nothing had happened.Time has passed, and most of the people who used to think Jia Lian deserved it now sympathize with him.

The original wife.

"Second Brother Lian, stay safe." Just when the atmosphere was getting weirder, another voice came from beside Jia Cong.

Hearing this voice, Jia Lian frowned slightly, and turned around to see this actual cousin, the real younger brother in name——Jia Baoyu.

It's all because Jia Cong attracted his attention too much. Jia Lian only saw Baoyu sitting beside Jia Cong at this time, and his heart felt sour.

It must be the wrong way for him to enter the mansion today.

Wait, why is Baoyu here?

Baoyu is here, but what about the old lady, the second master and the second wife?

Also, they are all still alive...

The author has something to say: When I ate fish head for dinner last night, when I ate fish eyes, I suddenly remembered the famous saying of Jia Baoyu.

Picking up the phone and looking at my face, I suddenly felt that I had entered the final stage...

A serving of fish head sparked...
