[Red Chamber] Mrs. Lin replaced her

Chapter 113 Fu Qiufang & Wishful Counting

It never occurred to Jia Zi that Jia Min would suddenly bring her such shocking news after not seeing her for a few days: Jia Zheng was going to marry a wife; however, the news was so unbelievable just to hear it. Woolen cloth?

Seeing the ghost-like expression on Jia Zi's face, Jia Min instantly felt a lot more balanced: Fortunately, she was not the only one who was shocked by the news and lost her due demeanor.

"Xiao Min," after finally calming down his emotions, Jia Zi hurriedly approached Jia Min with a smile, took Jia Min's hand, and said curiously: "Good Xiao Min, tell me quickly, where is it?" The girl from the family is so blind, she wants to be his wife? Or..." He blinked at Jia Min ambiguously, and Jia Zi said with a smirk: "The situation of that woman is the same as that of the You family back then. That woman is the same: that brat Jia Baoyu is going to have a few more brothers and sisters."

Although he didn't deliberately inquire about it, Jiazi could somewhat guess how wonderful the life after Jia Zheng was expelled from the clan was.Having snatched the title from his nephew Jia Lian, what Jia Zheng faced was nothing but criticism from the crowd; but when he was expelled from the clan, what he had to face was contempt and hatred from all directions.

The clan is different from the officialdom.It is normal to have ups and downs in the officialdom, and it is not uncommon for people to be dismissed without reason; however, almost no clan will expel their descendants without reason.Under normal circumstances, as long as they did not do something that endangered the life and death of the entire clan, very few people would be expelled from the clan.Even if one gradually becomes an ordinary clan member, it is much better than being expelled from the clan, especially for a big clan like Jinling Jia.

Although the Jinling Jia family has long since lost its glory, it was once a famous and prominent family of noble honors with two males.Moreover, Jia Jing is still the respectable Ning Guogong, and Jia Zi is the only female general in this dynasty who is highly valued.As the cousins ​​of Jia Jing and Jia Zi, even though Jia Zheng never wanted to admit it, he and his family still got a lot of benefits.If it weren't for the relationship between Jia Zi and Jia Jing, Jia Zheng would have been dismissed from office long ago, and Jia Baoyu might have been beaten to death in a corner by people loyal to the prince.

After being expelled from the clan by Jia Jing, Jia Zheng was nothing more than an ordinary foreigner from the Ministry of Fifth Grade Industry without any background at all.In this capital city with many dignitaries, Jia Zheng, who has not been promoted for more than 20 years, is naturally insignificant from the fifth rank.As for the title of the fifth-rank general on his body, it is not worth mentioning: there are countless relatives and relatives in the entire capital, and a declining nobleman will naturally not be taken seriously by anyone, let alone Jia Zheng's reputation It stinks already.

Therefore, whether it is Jia Mu or Jia Zheng, it is urgent to find a cute friend for the latter to rely on, or a backstage, so that he can continue to survive in the most prosperous place in the world, instead of becoming someone who everyone can rely on. An ant that can step on it.And the most unbreakable relationship is naturally the in-laws or family ties.

Originally, Jia Zheng's most reliable backer should be his powerful uncle, Prince Teng.However, firstly, Wang Ziteng is far away from the capital now, and the far water cannot save the near fire. The nieces were all sent to prison—although Jia Lian and Jia Zi had nothing to do with Jia Zheng now, this did not prevent Wang Ziteng from venting his anger on Jia Zheng.So, don't say that Wang Ziteng is not in the capital, even if he is, he may not be in charge of Jia Zheng's affairs.

As for Jia Yuanchun, who has always been regarded by Jia's mother as a great fortune, she can't help Jia Zheng's situation: Originally, the reason why Jia Yuanchun became a concubine was because she was born in the Jia family in Jinling.But now, with the change of Jia Zheng's identity, the identity of the granddaughter of Rong Guogong that Jia Yuanchun has always been proud of is no longer there.Therefore, it would be good for Jia Yuanchun not to be dragged down by Jia Zheng, but how could he possibly help Jia Zheng!

However, Jia Zi never imagined that Jia's mother would think of such a stupid way to marry Jia Zheng as a flat wife.Even if she used Jia Baoyu to marry her, it would be better than marrying Jia Zheng with a flat wife: didn't she know that, in this way, Jia Zheng would offend the two families.Although Ping Wife occupies the word "wife", in fact, it is just a little better than concubine, and its status is far behind that of Yuan Pei.Therefore, Jia Zheng's move was tantamount to offending both the Wang family and the family where the Ping wife belonged to: marrying a Ping wife while Mrs. Wang was still alive, would be a slap in the face of Mrs. Wang and the Wang family behind her.

Of course, in Jia Mu's view, there may be nothing wrong with her own actions: Although Jia Zheng has offended Wang Ziteng, she is not willing to really give up the power of the Wang family-otherwise, she would have given Xue Xue a long time ago. The aunt, mother and son rushed out.As long as Jia Zheng didn't completely divorce Mrs. Wang, Wang Ziteng would not completely turn against the Jia family.What's more, there is still Jia Yuanchun in the palace: as long as Jia Yuanchun can be favored, or even add another prince to the emperor, then both Jia Zheng and Wang Ziteng will get a lot of benefits.

As for offending people, Jia's mother didn't take it to heart.Just like she firmly believed that Jia Zheng was the number one scholar at the beginning, she always believed that Jia Zheng was so talented that all the women in the world would be fascinated by Jia Zheng.Therefore, in her opinion, even that flat wife must be the same as Youmu back then, wishing that Jia Zheng would marry her in.Naturally, she didn't have to worry that Jia Zheng's just giving the status of a flat wife would cause the other party's dissatisfaction.

Naturally, Jia Zi didn't know about the deformed thoughts in Jia Mu's heart. At this moment, she was full of curiosity about the family who would soon become Jia Zhengping's wife: she didn't know which family would be bewitched by Jia Mu's rhetoric, and wanted to sell her own If your daughter marries such a flashy trash as Jia Zheng, unless... that person is a widow like You Mu.However, Jiazi searched quickly in his heart, but he couldn't find such a stupid widow with some connections.

"Fuck you." Jia Min pushed Jia Zi, and said with a look of disgust: "You are like everyone in the You family!" Jia Min felt disgusted by the matter of the gate of the house.It's not that she has any prejudice against Youmu's background, but she simply expresses shame at the way Youmu entered Jia's family.

"By the way, you haven't said it yet," Jia Zi casually put Jia Min's shoulders, with a curious look on his face: "Which girl is so blind? Doesn't her father know, and Ping's wife doesn't know?" But it’s just saying nice things, but in fact, you still want a low-dollar match?” Jia Zi could hear that Jia Min’s words just now had negated Jia Zi’s guess that the ordinary wife Jia Zheng wanted to marry was a widow, so that is Said that the woman must be the daughter of an official's family.Of course, the biggest possibility is the concubine.

Mentioning the woman who was about to become Jia Zhengping's wife, Jia Min curled her lips with a disgusted tone: "You may have heard of that woman: Fu Qiufang. Her brother is..."

"Judging Fu Shi." Jia Zi hooked the corner of his mouth and said at the same time as Jia Min.While speaking, Jia Zi's eyes showed a trace of undisguised disdain: she never thought that Fu Qiufang would be Jia Zheng's wife who was about to enter the house.It's just that the current Jia Zheng doesn't seem to be in line with the grand ambitions and ambitions of the Fu brothers and sisters!

For Fu Shi and his younger sister Fu Qiufang, Jia Zi is not familiar with it.And Jiazi's familiarity with the two brothers and sisters comes entirely from their thoughts and calculations on Lin Hai.

In Jiazi's view, Fu Shi's words and deeds are very in line with his name: "following power"—following power.Although Fu Shi came from a humble background and had a shallow foundation, he had the ambition to rise above the clouds.In order to climb up, Fu tried all means, even using his own sister: Although Fu Shi himself was not very good-looking, his younger sister, Fu Qiufang, was still somewhat pretty.This naturally gave Fu Shi the conditions and opportunities for delusion.

Relying on the beauty of his younger sister Fu Qiufang, Fu Shi wanted to find a powerful and wealthy family as his in-laws, thinking that he would have some capital to climb up.It's just that those rich men don't like Fu Qiufang at all: with their power and status, they have never seen such a beautiful girl, even if Fu Qiufang has some beauty, they won't be fascinated enough to marry her Status - the marriage of the children of a wealthy family is the best means to consolidate their rights and status.Therefore, Fu Shi's wishful thinking never came to fruition, and Fu Qiufang's marriage was delayed until she was in her 20s.

Originally, this matter had nothing to do with Jazi.However, the two brothers and sisters actually set their minds on Lin Hai: Even though everyone knows that Jia Zi and Lin Hai are deeply in love, there are always people who think that Jia Zi and Lin Hai are inseparable, only their own Girls are the most worthy of Lin Hai—Lin Hai is handsome and gentle, coupled with his high position and weight, his future is boundless. Even if he is a concubine, there are many girls who rush forward one after another.The Fu brothers and sisters are naturally one of them.

In order to successfully give his younger sister to Lin Hai as a concubine, Fu Shi repeatedly invited Lin Hai to his home for dinner, and his intentions were self-evident.Even Fu Qiufang herself used to express her love and admiration through poems.

Jiazi knew about this a long time ago, but she never had time to deal with the two brothers and sisters: after all, she was busy with both the affairs of the Gyeonggi Camp and the affairs of the Lin Mansion on weekdays. Time to bother with this clown?Besides, as long as Lin Hai doesn't change his mind, no matter how loud the calculations of the two brothers and sisters are, it will be nothing but a waste of time.

"You know them too?" Hearing that Jia Zi directly said Fu Shi's name, Jia Min didn't think too much: After all, Fu Shi and Fu Qiufang are still very famous.

Jiazi smiled noncommittally: She would know that the two brothers and sisters really have nothing to do with the fame of the two brothers and sisters——if it wasn't for the two of them thinking about Lin Hai, she would not have noticed this irrelevance What about the person in charge: Whether Fu Qiufang is in her 20s or 40s has nothing to do with her.

Jia Min raised the corners of her lips and said disdainfully, "Then Fu Shi wanted to cling to the powerful. Unexpectedly, Fu Qiufang would marry him in the end. Haha...it's really funny."

"Why?" Hearing Jia Min's gloating tone, Jia Zi raised his eyebrows unconsciously, and asked inquiringly, "Then Fu Shi and Fu Qiufang offended you?" Jia Zi decided in his heart as he spoke: as long as Jia Min nodded, and she immediately went to beat Fu Shi and Fu Qiufang to vent her anger for Jia Min and herself at the same time.

Jia Min was stunned for a moment: she didn't expect Jia Zi to be so keen, and to detect what she had been hiding in her heart so quickly.

"Did they really offend you?" Jia Min's face convinced Jia Zi of his guess, and he was even more angry: These Fu brothers and sisters are really rampant. Seeing that she is too lazy to talk to them, she kicked her nose. Even Jia Min dared to provoke him.Hmph, it's just that she doesn't have time to pay attention to the two of them, it's not that she's afraid of them.Since the two brothers and sisters wanted to die, she didn't mind giving them a ride.

Seeing that Jia Zi was really in a hurry, Jia Min hurriedly stopped Jia Zi, rubbed Jia Zi's tense face, and said with a smile: "Okay. They are just two insignificant little people. You care about them like them." , Didn’t you flatter them! Besides, who in the capital doesn’t know about Fu Shi’s filthy thoughts? But who else said it? If you really did something to him, wouldn’t you admit it? This is not good for brother-in-law Lin. What if he ruins the marriage over there and blames you, what do I think you will do?"

Hearing Jia Min's words, Jia Zi frowned slightly, and then suddenly understood something: "You mean, they also had ideas about Wei Cheng?" Since the Fu brothers and sisters had ideas about Lin Hai, then It's not surprising that they also had Wei Cheng's idea: it can't be Wei Ruolan, right?

Jia Min nodded helplessly, and then showed a bright smile: "However, Wei Cheng didn't pay attention to them at all. Moreover, it's not just Wei Cheng, almost all the sons of wealthy families in Beijing were almost killed by that Fu. He tried to think over and over again. Let’s put it this way, Jia Baoyu was too young back then, otherwise, he would have been unable to escape the clutches of Fu Shi.” Of course, what Jia Min didn’t know was that Jia Baoyu’s love for Fu Qiufang Qiong, a girl with both talent and beauty, has also admired her for a long time.

Jia Zi raised the corner of his mouth and said with a sneer: "Is the son of a wealthy family so easy to cling to?" For Fu Shi, who doesn't want to make progress and only wants to take shortcuts and climb the powerful, Jia Zi naturally looks down on him very much. And in Jazi's view, their thinking is also very simple: how can a wealthy family be so simple.For them, the emphasis on marriage is to be well-matched and mutually beneficial.Therefore, how could they look up to Fu Shi and Fu Qiufang, who were shallow in foundation and impure in mind?

Jia Min also had a look of disdain: "There is no way, whoever makes Fu Shi feel that his sister is beautiful and talented, all the rich men in the world will cry and scramble for it. If people insist on thinking like this, who would want her?" What can be done?"

"Speaking of this," Jia Zi couldn't help being curious: "Have you seen that Fu Qiufang? Is she really beautiful? By the way, I heard that she is very talented. How talented is she?" For As far as Jia Zi is concerned, only Jia Min is worthy of the word "beautiful in appearance and talent".And that Fu Qiufang, for nothing else but her little-known little thoughts, is not worthy of this word.

Jia Min looked at Jia Zi suspiciously: "Who did you hear that she was beautiful?"

"Huh?" Jiazi became even more curious: "Isn't she beautiful? Didn't it mean that she has outstanding looks, so that's why Fu Shi came up with the idea of ​​those rich and aristocratic sons? If Fu Qiufang looks like her brother, How did Fu Shi have the courage to have such a ridiculous idea?"

"Your mouth is wicked enough." Jia Min smiled and nodded Jia Zi's forehead: "If you plan to sell something, will you say that yours is not good? Let's put it this way, beauty depends on who you compare it with." : Compared with Wang, Fu Qiufang is really pretty. But if it is true, she is not as good as Second Sister You and Sister You. As for your so-called talent, she is not as good as Those girls in the Grand View Garden."

Jia Zi blinked his eyes, and looked suddenly enlightened: "That is to say, Fu Shi is shameless and big talker, isn't he?"

Hearing Jia Zi's words, Jia Min couldn't help laughing, and nodded violently while laughing: Jia Zi's words really touched her heart, and Fu Shi is really shameless.

"By the way." After laughing and quarreling with Jia Min for a while, Jia Zi thought of something again and asked, "Are you going the day he gets married?"

Jia Zi understood Jia Mu and Jia Zheng's character.Therefore, she knew that when Jia Zheng married Fu Qiufang, Jia's mother and Jia Zheng would definitely want Jia Min to go back to support the scene: after all, with Jia Zheng's current situation, only Jia Min and Wei Cheng could do it.Jia's mother and Jia Zheng knew very well that no matter whether Jia Zheng married an ordinary wife or anything else, it was impossible for the rest of the Jia family to come and support him: even if it was Jia's mother's order.The only thing they can rely on is Jia Min.

Naturally, Jia Min could understand Mother Jia's intention of sending someone to tell her about this matter.However, upon hearing Jia Zi's question, Jia Min frowned and said with a sneer, "It doesn't matter what I do."

This may sound a little heartless, but in fact there is nothing wrong with it.Jia Min is the daughter of the Jia family in Jinling, but Jia Zheng has nothing to do with the Jia family of Jinling. Naturally, Jia Min and Jia Zheng have nothing to do with each other.

In fact, with Jia Min's character, being able to say this also proves that she has been heartbroken by what Jia Zheng and Jia's mother did: At the beginning, she left Rongguo Mansion in a rage, but Jia's mother kept going. But this time Jia Zheng was expelled from the clan, Jia's mother immediately sent someone to come, ordering herself and Wei Cheng to help Jia Zheng desperately with a high-spirited tone.Jia Min really wanted to ask Mother Jia "why", but in the end she didn't ask.However, her relationship with Jia's mother became more and more distant.

"If you don't go," Jia Zi breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I won't go either." To be honest, Jia Zi was really worried that Jia Min would soften his heart and go to support Jia Zheng.

"Little Zi..." Sensing Jia Zi's worry, Jia Min couldn't help but feel a little moved: Jia Zi is the only one in Jia's family who is so worried about her and thinks of her in everything.

Jia Zi looked at Jia Min puzzled, "Huh?"

"It's okay." A bright smile appeared on Jia Min's face: "Okay, it's getting late, I have to go."

Jia Zi raised his eyebrows: "Aren't you going to stay for dinner? I made someone cook your favorite food."

"No," Jia Min smiled and pinched Jia Zi's face, with a smug look on his face, "Wei Cheng said he would take me to the night market!" Maybe he sensed that Jia Min's mood has been a little low recently, so Wei Cheng Cheng thought about taking Jia Min out for a walk to relax.It's just that Wei Cheng is busy with official duties and doesn't have much time, so he can only take Jia Min to go shopping and coax her while there is a night market tonight.

Seeing Jia Min's appearance of "don't delay my date", Jia Zi squeezed Jia Min's face in a funny way: "Okay, then I won't keep you. I won't delay you when I get time." It's time, you tickle me again."

A smug smile appeared on Jia Min's face, and she lit up her little "claws" again, and said in a coquettish tone, "It's good that you know."

"What's the matter?" Just as Jia Min left, Lin Hai came over: "How did I hear that Jia Zheng is going to marry a flat wife?"

"What else could it be?" Jiazi leaned into Lin Hai's arms with a smile, "I want to strengthen myself. But, hmph, he doesn't want to see what he found."

Lin Hai hugged Jia Zi lightly, and said with a smile, "Besides the Fu family, who else do you think would betroth a girl to Jia Zheng?" Marriages of wealthy families have always been alliances between strong and powerful families, and Jia Zheng's condition is naturally to be married. Not in the eyes of those wealthy families.Therefore, he could only find someone with shallow eyes like Fu Shi to strengthen his strength.For Fu Shi, Jia Yuanchun, Jia Zheng's daughter, was a concubine, and her mother was the wife of a Duke of Chaopin, so she could barely be regarded as a nobleman.

"By the way," Jia Zi looked at Lin Hai curiously, "How did Prudence hook up with Fu Shi?"

"Don't you know?" Lin Hai pinched Jiazi's nose affectionately: "Fu Shi is his favorite student. And as far as I know, he was the one who ran down Fu Shi's position as general judge." Lin Haibin said while holding Jiazi's hand, and walked slowly towards the dining room.

Jia Zi looked at Lin Hai in surprise: "What did you say? Even prudence can have disciples? How could he have the nerve to accept disciples with the little ink in his stomach? No wonder Fu Shi is so ignorant, and even wants to become a wealthy family in-laws."

"What's the big deal?" Lin Hai laughed and said, "It's just a name; you really think that this student wants Jia Zheng to teach Fu Shi himself!"

Jiazi flattened his mouth: "Well, you are right."

However, she didn't eat the meal that Jia Zi specially prepared; she and Lin Hai had just arrived at the dining room when they were called to the palace by the new emperor.

"Your Majesty means..." Jiazi's eyes lit up when he heard the new emperor's order.Then, under the careful reminder of Du Ruo at the side, she realized her gaffe, and quickly put on a solemn expression: "My minister obeys the order."

The new emperor looked at Jia Zi who was holding back a smile and eager to try, and said amusedly: "Okay, I know you want to laugh, so just laugh if you want to. After laughing, go to work. It's not too late, you Let's set off overnight with Du Ruo tonight!"

Jia Zi pursed the corners of his mouth, with a calm expression on his face: "Observe the order."

It wasn't until he came out of the imperial study with Du Ruo that Jia Zi raised his head and looked in the direction of Jinling, showing a creepy sneer, and said gloomily in his heart, "Zhen Yingjia, did you wash your neck clean?"

Du Ruo knew about Jiazi's grievances with the Zhen family, so he never disturbed Jiazi.Just as Jiazi turned his head, Du Ruocai smiled and said, "Azi, how is it? If you're ready, let's go!"

Jia Zi nodded lightly: "It has been prepared for a long time, and it has been prepared for many years."

"Don't worry," Du Ruo also said in a gloomy tone, "None of them can escape." Du Ruo has also heard about what Jiazi and Lin Hai experienced in Yangzhou.Thinking of the fact that the Zhen family dared to allow her best friend to suffer such grievances, Du Ruo even wanted to eat the Zhen family.

The streets of the capital were still bustling, and no one noticed that a group of people quietly left the city under the moonlight, and headed straight for Jinling with the stars and the moon on their horses.

At Lin Shilang's mansion, Lin Hai raised his head to look at the moon in the sky, and suddenly chanted softly: "The mountain rain is about to come and the wind fills the building."

The author has something to say: I don't like Fu Qiufang, so I just gave it to Jia Zheng.I just don't know if Jia Baoyu knows that Fu Qiufang has become his little mother, does he still admire him?

small theater:

Fu Qiufang: La la la, finally married
