The eldest son of the red mansion
Page 224
Jia Ke hurriedly got up to salute Mrs. Wang. When she looked up at Mrs. Wang, she saw her eyes were red and her body was trembling slightly. She thought she felt sorry for Jia Zhu and wanted him to live happily in his final days.
Jia Zheng originally wanted to reprimand Jia Ke, but as soon as he saw Mrs. Wang's appearance and the words came to his lips, he felt a sense of resignation, and there was also a hope in his heart, hoping that once Jia Zhu's mood was brightened, his body would recover. Then he recovered slowly, and even if he couldn't be as good as before, he could last for a while.
Jia Ke thought of Mrs. Wang's pity for her son, so she said solemnly: "Don't worry, mother, I can still do this, otherwise I, the chief minister of the military aircraft department, will be in vain."
Jia Zhu watched the conversation between Mrs. Wang and Jia Ke. He deliberately refused, hoping to become an official on the right path of the imperial examination, but he also knew that his body might not be able to withstand the spring, so he also remained silent beside him.
Mrs. Wang finally had a smile on her face at this time. The previous dissatisfaction with Jia Ke has begun to fade now. Although Jia Ke kept making troubles for Aunt Zhou about this matter, now she wants to come, but that is after all. Jia Ke's biological mother, Jia Ke should take care of him more.This time, as long as the price can handle Jia Zhudan's affairs well, she will not pursue it anymore.
Jia Ke sat there and thought about it carefully. The county magistrates near the capital have always been the world's fattest jobs.But it has nothing to do with it, so I really can't be an official here.But for him, the chief minister of the military aircraft, it was just a matter of effort.
"The county magistrate of Daxing County has made a lot of contributions in the past few years. It was time for promotion, but it was delayed due to the turmoil last year. I will find a chance to transfer him away. The second brother will be the county magistrate in Daxing. , it’s only a dozen miles away from the capital, and it will take an hour or two for the second brother to come back.” Jia Ke said her way, and then looked at Mrs. Wang and Jia Zheng and asked them to make a decision.
Mrs. Wang's face was full of joy when she heard Jia Ke's words. Being a county magistrate in Daxing County was no different from staying in another courtyard in the suburbs of Beijing.It doesn't delay Jia Zhu's recuperation, and she can send someone to take care of her from time to time, so there's nothing wrong with it.
This is not the best, the most important thing is to settle Jia Zhu's worries, and he will have no regrets from now on.
Mrs. Wang's face was full of blood, but she dared not promise to keep looking at Jia Zheng. After all, Jia Zheng is the master of the house in this house, and she can still decide on trivial matters, like this kind of man who wants to go out to be an official. How dare she decide what to do.
Jia Zheng didn't want to agree at first, because Jia Zhu was just a juren. If he became the magistrate of Daxing County directly, someone in the court would probably talk about Jia Ke.But when he thought that Jia Zhu would only be in the past two years, he couldn't refuse.
Jia Zheng sat there silent for a while before saying: "Since you still have some ability, then let your second brother finish this matter so that he won't have to continue to work hard. His body can't stand this."
Jia Zhu stood aside and heard his father say that his body was also very ashamed. If he hadn't used the medicine of tiger and wolf for quick success, he wouldn't have the result today. Now he looks in good health, but in fact he knows in his heart that his body may be It can't be done.This time I want to take the imperial examination, but I just want to break the boat. If I can succeed, I can leave some shadows for my wife and children after my death.
Madam Wang saw that Jia Zheng did not refuse, so she couldn't wait to ask Jia Ke: "When will the complaint from the Ministry of Officials arrive?"
As soon as she finished saying this, Jia Zheng scolded her angrily: "Ignorant woman, where do you think the Ministry of Officials is? Those who should come will come naturally, don't hurry up."
Although Mrs. Wang was reprimanded by Jia Zheng, she was not angry, but went out with a smile on her face.
Chapter 312
Jia Zhu stood aside, watching his parents worry about his future and felt very guilty, but to be honest, he was relieved.What he said was just a momentary surge of blood, and now thinking about it, he still has some doubts.
Now that he heard that his parents had made a decision for him, although he did not achieve the goal of becoming an official in the imperial examination, who made his body not live up to expectations?
Jia Ke, the big brother, still cared about him very much. For his own sake, he ignored his reputation and allowed himself to be the county magistrate in Daxing County, which was considered his best effort.After all, Jia Zhu is only a juren so far, and he has even surpassed many second-class Jinshi in this step. What can we complain about?
Jia Zhu is not thinking about himself anymore, he also has to take care of his small family, and after his death, his wife and children will be able to live comfortably for the rest of their lives.Now that Jia Ke has agreed to let him become a county magistrate near the capital, he will earn at least tens of thousands of taels of silver in this term.Thinking that his mother would not take the money away, if it was left to his wife, it would guarantee their food and clothing in this life, so he said goodbye to Jia Zheng and went back to the house contentedly.
After Jia Zhu left, both Jia Zheng and Jia Ke showed worried faces. Jia Zheng said worriedly, "I wanted him to recuperate at home, but judging by his appearance, I can't stay. It's better to follow his will." .”
Jia Ke also said with a sad face: "Second brother grew up with me, and studied literature with a teacher. Now his body is really worrying. But I think if he goes to be a county magistrate, I'm afraid he won't be able to last for a year or two. If you want me to say, let him rest at home."
After Jia Zheng heard Jia Ke's words, he also felt a burst of embarrassment. He didn't expect that he would send a white-haired man to a black-haired man.Thinking about Jia Ke's words, if Jia Zhu is allowed to recuperate at home, without these troubles, it should be able to extend some years.So he regretted finding an official position for Jia Zhu by default.
"Brother, we shouldn't have promised him just now, and now I think about it and regret it."
After listening to Jia Zheng's words, Jia Ke thought for a while and said, "If Father wants to delay, it's not easy to do. As long as I send a message, there is no problem if you want to delay for a few months."
Jia Zheng's eyes lit up after listening, "How to operate? Tell me."
"It's not easy. I just need to hint a little bit, and the promotion document of the Daxing County Magistrate will be delayed. Since the Daxing County Magistrate cannot be promoted by then, the second brother's official position will naturally be delayed for a while."
After Jia Zheng listened, he couldn't help nodding, but then he became a little frustrated.Jia Zheng had high hopes for Jia Zhu, a child, but he never expected it to be this far.
Both father and son sighed, after all, Jia Zhu's current body was supported entirely by that thousand-year-old ginseng.
Jia Ke just wants to give Jia Zhu a good official position now, I'm afraid he won't be able to take it, it will only make him die early.
Jia Ke thought about it carefully. It seems that there is a very famous doctor in Dream of Red Mansions. He once treated Qin Keqing. His surname seems to be Zhang. I can’t remember his name. I just remember that it seems to be recommended by Feng Ziying. From Beijing.
It seems that this doctor is a rare miracle doctor in the Dream of the Red Chamber. If he can save Jia Zhu's life, even if he can prolong Jia Zhu's life, it will be a matter of little effort to give his son an official position.
"Father, I seem to have heard that there is a genius doctor who lives in Feng Ziying's house. His surname seems to be Zhang or something. Why don't you invite me to show my second brother?" Jia Ke suggested to Jia Zheng.
Just after Jia Zheng heard what Jia Ke said, he said a little unhappy: "You are also the Minister of Military Aircraft now, don't listen to the wind and rain like before. Are there still few genius doctors now? Just ask on the street, and you can catch them casually. For a few people, listening to them is better than honestly letting the old doctor Lu who is in charge of the Imperial Hospital see it."
Seeing that Jia Zheng didn't believe it, Jia Ke hurriedly continued: "My lord, Feng Ziying's family is also a marquis for generations. Since he can be invited to the mansion by his family and has a reputation as a genius doctor, I think there is something wrong. Even if it is not as good as Old doctor Shang Lu, it is not a waste of fame, why don't you come over to let him have a look, if you can save the life of your second brother, it is not the best of both worlds."
After Jia Zheng heard this, he became serious. If Jia Ke is not an ordinary person now, he must have some skills to be able to hear his name, so he said: "That's it, I'll go to the post tomorrow and invite him to be your second son Brother, take a look."
Jia Ke suggested from the side: "Why don't I post the post, so as to give him some face, and he will try his best." In fact, Jia Ke thought in his heart that he came here to donate an official for his son. There is no one who does not do his best in the post, otherwise his son would not be able to enter the official career in this life.
Jia Zheng nodded, agreeing to his suggestion. After all, he was not completely obstinate, and he also knew that Jia Ke had more face than him.
So these few things were discussed and decided, and Jia Ke left and went back to the house.
In the afternoon of the second day, Jia Ke did not inspect the military camps around the capital as usual, but saw the long-famous Jia Yucun in the study of Wuyanghou Mansion.Seeing Jia Yucun, he praised his good looks.No wonder Lin Ruhai and Jia Zheng had misjudged their eyes, and they would preconceive that they were gentlemen based on their appearance.
And in ancient times, Xiang Youxinsheng said that anyone who saw Jia Yucun's appearance would not think that he was a treacherous villain, but they didn't know that people should not look good.Who would have thought that Jia Yucun was an ungrateful white-eyed wolf.
Jia Yucun received the news yesterday that Jia Ke, the chief minister of the military aircraft, was going to meet him today, and he was so happy that he didn't fall asleep all night. After all, Jia Ke was different from others, and it was a great honor to meet him.It seems that this time the relationship between the Rongguo Mansion is on the right track.As long as he can rely on Jia Ke, he will be able to achieve great success just around the corner.
At noon that day, after a quick lunch, he came to the gate of the Marquis of Wuyang's mansion, handed in a post and waited for an interview.
Now many officials have been waiting at Jia Ke's gate for a long time, and some officials have even reported for duty at Jia Ke's gate every day for a month.Just like that, he was still waiting at the door to see Jia Ke.
And the concierge got the news from the inner house in the morning, knowing that a Jia Yucun was coming to visit today, and now that he got his post, he didn't dare to neglect and asked him to wait in the concierge.After all, Jia Ke told him about it. Besides, his surname is Jia. If he is a crooked relative of Jia's mansion and offends him, he may have a hard time in front of Jia Ke.And Jia Yucun waited at the gatehouse for nearly an hour before he was summoned by Jia Ke and entered the study.
After Jia Yucun entered the study, he saw a young man in his twenties standing at the head.Jia Yucun didn't neglect him in the slightest because he was a young man.He knew that the person sitting in front of him was someone who could stir up the world.
So Jia Yucun hurried forward a few steps, and knelt down in front of Jia Ke: "Student Jia Yucun, I have met Enxiang."
Jia Ke sat on the chair and didn't move, but just supported her, "Sir, please get up quickly, you are recommended by my uncle, so naturally you are one of us."
After Jia Yucun listened to Jia Ke's instructions, he dared to stand up and stand on Jia Ke's desk, not daring to sit down.
Seeing Jia Yucun, Jia Ke was still respectful, so she said, "I have received my uncle's handwriting, and I don't know what your master's plan is."
This is Jia Ke asking Jia Yucun what requirements he has for an official position, so he can plan for him himself.After all, this was a letter written by Lin Ruhai himself to Jia Zheng. If he was dismissed by a petty official, I would feel sorry for Lin Ruhai.
Jia Yucun stood at the bottom, and when he heard Jia Ke's question, he quickly cupped his hands and said, "I am the body to be punished, so I don't dare to ask for anything. Enxiang sees that there is a position suitable for my subordinate, just give me one."
After hearing what he said, Jia Ke made a plan in her heart, so she smiled and said to Jia Yucun: "In this case, don't take these trivial matters to heart, and rest in Beijing for a few days. I think there will be good news soon."
Jia Yucun did not expect that Jia Ke would help him so happily. It seems that Lin Ruhai's letter played a big role.If I find a chance, I must go to Lin Ruhai's residence again, keep close to him, and communicate more often.
Jia Yucun dared to rush to thank Jia Ke once again: "Thank you for your kindness, Yucun, I will look forward to your kindness from now on."
Jia Ke didn't believe a word he said, this man was very vicious, and he was also among the best in Dream of the Red Chamber.It's just that Jia Ke already has the means to control him, so he is not afraid of his backlash.
The two chatted in the room for a long time. When they came out, Jia Ke personally sent Jia Yucun out of the study.
But this time, Jia Yusheng respected Jia Ke from the bottom of his heart, and he only wanted to go through fire and water for Jia Ke.In matters related to Jia Ke, there is no selfishness anymore.
Not to mention that Jia Yucun went back to wait for news, only that after Jia Ke sent Jia Yucun away, he ordered Zhang Gui, a servant of his own, to take his post to the mansion of Shenwu General Feng Tang to invite this miracle doctor surnamed Zhang.
