Old and Beautiful in the Red Chamber

Suddenly, there was an earth-shattering explosion from the farm on the outskirts of the Ningguo Mansion. Oh, yes, it should not be called the Ningguo Mansion. The ancestral hall is gone, and now the new plaque on the door is the first-class Yongningbo, it should be renamed Yongningbo's mansion.

In the past few years, there have been disturbances from time to time in Yongningbo Mansion, sometimes with the sound of explosions, and sometimes with smoke that can irritate people to tears, etc., accompanied by cheers or annoyance from time to time, the people of Shenjing have changed from the first The panic I felt this time has become a habit now, and I even worry that if there are no such movements next year, will I not be able to sleep instead?

Why may there be no such movement next year?Because the producer is going to get married next year!Who knows if her husband's family will continue to make her daughter-in-law torment after she gets married?Oh, even if he is willing, he is not in the capital anymore.Speaking of this, we should mention our hero this time—classmate Jia Xichun—another girl who seriously strayed from the line of fate.

Xichun has no mother since she was a child, her father loves cultivating Taoism and alchemy, her brother is a fool who loves to mess around every day, I wish I could play all the memes of Xiao Huang. I also don't want to interfere with my sister-in-law's affairs. The two nephews look up to the eldest brother and are determined to be the second generation of nonsense. The old lady next door who almost became her tutor is trying to raise the girls in the direction of cats and dogs to amuse themselves... If the original trajectory of fate is followed, Xichun will be affected by the surrounding environment and become a passive, withdrawn, cold-hearted, cold-hearted and just become a nun if she disagrees with her... ╮(╯▽╰)╭

But who made the miracle of the Grand Master in his life?

The Elder Master is indeed a miracle. Although he has no great abilities, he managed to create a prosperous world where the country is getting better and better, the Jia family is getting better and better, and everyone is getting better and better.Because of the Eldest Master, Xichun's father crawled out of the tortoise shell that had lived in the house for many years!

After climbing out of the tortoise shell (Taoist temple), Jia Jing was naturally embarrassed to let his daughter go to Rongguo Mansion, so Xichun did not live in Rongguo Mansion every day like the original book, and did not go to school in Xichun and did not accept Qin Keqing's education During the time, she naturally came back to Dongfu.Although Jia Jing was cold-hearted, since he returned home, he didn't continue to ignore his children, but if his son and grandson were misbehaving, he could beat him to his death and ask the teacher to take care of him. How would he raise his daughter?

After much deliberation, Master Jing, who didn't know what to do, decided to let nature take its course, and she could do whatever she liked, but let her go.

Xichun was still a child, and children always wanted to be close to their parents. She had no mother since she was a child, so naturally she wanted to be close to Master Jing from the bottom of her heart. It was his cold face that made her dare not rush over to kiss and hug her, and she also had no mother. Unconsciously wanting to get closer to people... The little girl made up her mind that if her father hated her, she would stay far away, and if her father was willing to get close to her, that would be great.

Respect to the Elder Master——The Elder Master did not express, did not reach out to hug the little cute thing that he thought was well hidden and sneaked up, nor did he coldly ask his servants to take her away, and did his own thing, as long as The little cute thing didn't bother me, so let her go!

So Xichun thought she was quiet and moved to Mr. Jing's side step by step, watching him handle the pile of bottles and jars of various materials. Didn't refuse my closeness!Ah, although I don’t know what these are, but they are red, green, green, yellow, yellow, black and black, they look like her paints~ Sure enough, I have a close relationship with my father, and even the things I like are similar——Xichun is right at a young age. I am very interested in painting.

Master Jing was stared at by the little cute thing, and continued to do his own experiments without shaking his hands.

Xichun watched from the side, and gradually picked up the pen and paper to draw various materials and weights, and later asked Mr. Jing about the names and uses of various materials with great interest-Master Jing regarded her as her former self. Xiao Daotong, who waits on the sidelines during alchemy, will explain in detail to others when he is in a good mood, and directly treats him as a little assistant to pass objects when he is experimenting with selflessness. The father and daughter are in a different kind of harmony.

What really changed Jia Xichun from an art student to an engineering girl was the period of the confinement period (drop) cough cough, and it was the period of recuperation after the birth of the child. Confinement is different for one month or two months. Master Jing, he was forced to cultivate by the emperor's little friend and his dear Mr. Zhang for a year!Can't go to work for a whole year!Even Mr. Zhang took care of the child because he was afraid of affecting Jia Jing's rest, but it turned out that Mr. Jing was almost suffocated to death!Fortunately, Xichun is still by his side, he can't do anything, so he can instruct Xichun to do it!Master Jing didn't consider at all that his little girl is still a cute little lolita, so let people do experiments directly like this!

Qin Keqing and the others didn't know that Mr. Jing had given birth and went to recuperate. They thought he was really sick, and it's normal for the daughter to not come to class to attend to the illness, isn't it?Unexpectedly, a year later, they got an engineering girl... Xichun, who originally only took experiments as a hobby, fell in love with chemical engineering completely!Even the painting style of drawing a picture of sisters having fun in the past has become a variety of abstract icons that cannot be twisted back...

Qin Keqing is called worrying!Youshi next door has always been a "sawed gourd". Jia Zhen just didn't want to marry a wife who could control her, so she blindly searched for a successor, only looking for appearance, nothing else.In addition, there is no one from the top, and there is no bottom line for low marriages. After Jia She married Xing Shi, who was an official at any rate, You Shi was completely a commoner woman—her father even married a second wife. He said that he brought two step-sisters with him, which shows that the family is really not high-my family background is not good, and Jia Zhen is a lecherous and absurd person. After a while, she left Youshi alone. In terms of real power, You's really not much better in Ningfu.This formed her character of not being able to intervene in anything and being afraid of intervening. Naturally, she avoided the marriage of her sister-in-law Xichun, and Qin Keqing took it for granted that Xichun's future was entrusted to her.In fact, it is reasonable to say that Xichun's marriage is easier than Yingchun Tanchun, because she is the first daughter and the eldest daughter, her father has officials and elder brothers, and she is also a beauty. Daughter, being with a biological father not only did not immediately remedy the situation and drag her into the secular path, but was very gratifying about it... Qin Keqing wanted to cry, really!

In order for Xichun to get married smoothly in the future (...), Qin Keqing also put in a lot of effort. When she was free, she took Xichun to the noble girl's road, and when there was a party, she took the little girl to pretend to be cute, and worked hard to arrange for the Ningfu to reserve for her. The dowry of the little girl, hoping that the little girl will be favored by the right person sooner.

However, this is of no use, because the little girl's own father is too capable of tearing things apart!Mr. Jing, who originally only did some small experiments at home, took some dangerous experiments to do at home!He also took Xichun little loli together!Nima once directly flooded most of Rongning Street with pungent thick smoke!Even the emperor ordered Jia Jing to conduct dangerous experiments in the suburbs, and only small experiments were allowed in Shenjing.Hehehe, after Master Jing made such a move, now everyone knows the attributes of the little loli, and the ladies who came to see her disappeared all of a sudden!Master Jing doesn't want to repent, but he is so happy that no one hinders him to take Xichun and let go of himself! ! !Xichun's little loli plans to pay for her hair when she gets older and spend her whole life doing experiments at home!

Hehehe, Qin's face is expressionless, wishing to throw all those experimental products on Jia Jing's head!

Unexpectedly, Xichun finally got married, and the marriage was quite right - her husband's family was the Duke of Bagong Town, the founder of the country, and now the first-class Zhenyuan Bo Niu's family had a youngest son, (crossed) from the stars (dropped) Brother Niu Yong, a pilot from modern society, and brother Niu is also the only traveler who married Twelve Beauties, so we should applaud and encourage him here.

Brother Xiaoniu is also very desperate!When he crossed over, he was still an unmarried, non-single young man—a bunch of aunts in the backyard of Nima!This is too stimulating the heart of his good socialist youth, right?He was so scared that he hurriedly went to the martial arts school to become an instructor, and asked his mother to break up the group of women. As for getting a wife or something, hehe, let him do his own psychological work first!Such a procrastination has dragged myself into an older youth, and my parents have begun to urge marriage desperately, occupying the body of the son, so I can't ignore all responsibilities, right?But Brother Xiao Niu found out sadly that the girls who fit his idea of ​​marriageable age are all fucking children who can play soy sauce!The Niu family would never allow him to marry a widow!It's not that I haven't met fellow travelers from across the country, but those girls are either definitely not in line with Niu's elders' appetite or not in line with Xiao Niu's own hobbies!And the marriageable girl of the Tian Dynasty, putting aside her own age, started with a three-year start, and the maximum penalty is death (underage, underage)!What's even more sad is that the girls here don't allow him to marry first and go home and wait to grow up slowly!They put so much pressure on themselves to have children!What can Brother Niu, who doesn't want to commit crimes and can't be a single nobleman, do?In the end, after searching around, Brother Xiaoniu met Lolita Xichun—it’s rare for a girl in ancient times to have such ideas and suit her own taste, and she doesn’t mind him waiting a few more years for OOXX to have children. Brother Xiaoniu thinks it must be It is the other half specially arranged for me by God!So, Brother Xiao Niu, who is already considered an old cow compared to Xichun Lolita, decided to take Tender Grass Lolita home.

The Jia family is still very satisfied with this. Although Xiao Niu sometimes speaks a little weirdly, his face is too profound and stylish, and his temper is cold, which does not conform to Tian Chao's public aesthetics, and he is a little older than Xichun, but he I don't plan to take in a bunch of concubines, I don't plan to get a bunch of concubines, or make a bunch of confidante friends, and I'm willing to continue playing experiments without doing my job properly!How many men in the world can be so enlightened?How many men in the world can do the above two points, just to block Xichun's excuse of wanting to become a monk and spend his whole life at home doing experiments?But the other party, Jane's bright future in the emperor's heart, is secondary to the Jia family.

Finally, the girl got married and didn't fall on her hands——Qin Keqing continued to think with a blank expression, so it seems that Tanchun is really a talkative girl!

In my previous life, compared with the other girls, Tanchun was the one who lived her life most earnestly and in line with her status: as a concubine, she flattered her aunt, Mrs. Wang, and was well-educated by her side, to please her brother, Jia. Baoyu, in exchange for a good life in the mansion, is aggressive and strives to gain some status in the mansion; she cares about her status and really understands how to be a concubine, so she hates and grieves her status as a concubine. However, she contemptuously contemptuously treats her biological mother, because the girl is the "master". The aunt said she is half a master, but in fact she is just a different kind of slave. If she hadn't been a concubine, she would have a better life; The first one, in the end, she married another country for the sake of her family... In this life, Tanchun's life is not much different from the previous life, it still revolves around Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang and Jia Baoyu, although her biological mother seems to be very fond of Jia Zheng. Beloved, but Jia Zheng, the head of the family, is just a decoration!She can't be tough anymore, her marriage is still in Mrs. Wang's hands, what can she do?I only hope that Mrs. Wang can find a suitable relative for her.

Wang raised Tanchun back then, firstly to scare Aunt Zhao, so that she would know that no matter how much she fumbled, she was the authority in the house, and could take away the other's children with one word; secondly, there was no harm in raising Tanchun. There is a big age difference between Yuanchun and her, and Jia Baoyu, who is similar in age, is a boy. This concubine will not form a competitive relationship with her own child, and she can gain a virtuous name if she raises her. When she is old enough, she can be used as a marriage partner to help her son, so When she chooses a husband and son-in-law for Tanchun, she naturally chooses someone who can help Jia Baoyu—without a bunch of sisters and sisters hanging around, Jia Baoyu doesn't even have the motivation to flip through books and write poems with his sisters. Jia Zheng was so busy and decadent that he didn't even focus on stick education and study, and Jia's mother blindly spoiled him. Jia Baoyu was actually a useless dude. I haven't made any decent friends——Facing Jia Baoyu like this, Mrs. Wang really wants to cry!There is no other way but to rely on the help of others.Mrs. Wang's social circle in the past was also the Four Kings and Eight Dukes and the Four Great Jinling Families. No, she decided to send Tanchun to the Prince's Mansion in Beijing County as a concubine, so that the King of Beijing could support Jia Baoyu.

Tanchun is not happy, she has suffered enough from being a concubine, and she also knows that Aunt Zhao is suffering from not being seen by her slaves and not being seen by her children, so she is not willing to become the second Aunt Zhao's own children become The next self and Jia Huan who were secretly despised?And as soon as he entered the Hou's family, it was as deep as the sea, let alone the palace, and he didn't even know if he could have children safely!She was indeed prepared to be married for the sake of the family one day, but she was not prepared to be a concubine. With the family status of the Jia family, not to mention marrying a concubine of a high family, it would be no problem to marry a concubine!She doesn't want to be a concubine!

Tanchun couldn't influence Wang's decision. She asked Jia's mother, but she was not Jia Baoyu, and Jia's mother didn't have to fight the past for her; "The aunt is the master" is the same thing; she even begged Aunt Zhao, but Aunt Zhao didn't have much energy. After Wang let go of Jia Zheng in her heart, she didn't care who Jia Zheng was with. Jia Zheng was stuffed with two young and beautiful aunts who were slightly literate, and Jia Zheng's heart was taken away within a few years. She had long since fallen out of favor, so there was no way out... In the end, Tan Chunqiu was able to return to her mother's house Playing on Yingchun's head.Yingchun was very difficult, but seeing the relationship between the sisters who grew up together in the past, I couldn't help but mention it to my brother, sister-in-law and father. Jia Lian and others were not very happy at all. A girl who is a concubine, but she is the royal family anyway, so she can only recognize her by holding her nose. If Tanchun is a concubine again, she is still a low-level concubine, isn't it too ugly?Afterwards, the few people discussed it, and the old master came out and showed Jia Zheng a taunting skill. As expected, the other party exploded at once, and unknowingly snatched away Tanchun's marriage——Later, Tanchun Jia Zheng decides to marry a young Juren—the person is actually chosen by Tanchun himself, and Jia Lian and the others just help draw a circle of candidates, and the final decision is in Tanchun's hands, so as not to help others if there are any problems in the future It's not good to end up complaining.Tanchun's husband is very motivated, but her mother-in-law is a bit strong, and the marriage was not smooth at first. Fortunately, the family also knows that the daughter-in-law's family background is not ordinary. Tanchun's ability to follow Mao's elders is quite high. It's getting smoother.

The generation of the Jia family only welcomes and cherishes these four girls. Naturally, after the elder master was taken away by the emperor, he couldn’t continue to create humans. Although Jia Zheng spent a decadent life on the second room, he followed Aunt Zhao and the new couple later. The girl and aunt I bought made all kinds of mischief, but she didn't have any more children, and it wasn't just because of her own fault that she was molested by a certain lady—in short, the four girls are all out of the door, what will happen in the future , or run it on your own~

The author has something to say:
