Jia Hu, a fan of wealth in the Red Chamber
Chapter 38
Mrs. Gu couldn't bear it in her heart, "Your aunt is the most proud of her temper. Back then, the old Duke's eyeballs were sore. Several relatives came to ask for marriage. The old Duke chose it for a few years before he was chosen." I met Uncle Lin who was a high school student and came from an honorable background. Before, the two of them were also envied by everyone. They really only envied mandarin ducks and not immortals. Who knows that after a few years, it will be like this situation now. Sigh."
Jia Hu was not as soft-hearted as his mother, "There is nothing perfect in this world. My aunt wants to take it all. How easy is it? The Lin family has no children. It has been several years since my aunt got married, and there is no one." A man and a half woman, Mrs. Lin, in her old age, doesn't what she hopes for is to see a grandson born? She has endured for so many years, and she has already given our family face."
Moreover, if it hadn't been for his intrusion, Mother Jia would still be listening to her words in front of her Rong Guogong Lao Fengjun at this time.Now, the Lin family was also a member of the Confucian generals who followed the holy ancestor to fight the world, and heirs of the scholarly family, which is different from their Jia family, they are full of confidence.
"Besides, what my son said just now is not aimless. Our aunt, I am afraid that someone has already been murdered."
Gu Shi was surprised, "How did you say that?"
"Mother also knows that my son's five senses have always been a bit stronger than others. Just now I smelled a faint musky scent, but this smell is very light. If it wasn't for my son's more contact with these spices recently, I couldn’t smell it for a while. None of the female relatives in our house have the habit of using this kind of spice, and only my aunt has it. And think about it, when I came back from the second day of junior high, my son also smelled it, but I just didn’t take it to heart at the time.”
After hearing this, Mrs. Gu was silent for a while, feeling a kind of sadness in her heart that hurt her kind.As smart as her, how could she not understand the twists and turns here?Think back when she first married into Jia's mansion, didn't she almost get recruited?If it weren't for the nanny prepared for her by her natal family... Thinking of this, Gu could not help but sigh.
"Hu'er, if you have the means, you can help your aunt."
Jia Hu pouted, his mother was too kind, but she didn't say anything to refuse, "If she begs, she will help her. If she doesn't look down on us at all, she can't go up crying and shouting up." Let’s get it together? It’s too expensive.”
Gu Shi nodded his head helplessly, "You, you just don't suffer."
Jia Hu made a grimace at Gu Shi, acquiescing to his mother's comment, "Don't worry, if she really comes to your door, you can tell her that there is a very skilled medical doctor next to Princess Jiahui. She is a female doctor, especially good at treating women's diseases, if she has the heart, she can ask to go to Zhongyong County Prince's Mansion."
Gu's footsteps stopped, "But the white female doctor bestowed by that saint?"
Jia Hu raised her eyebrows, it seems that this white female doctor is still very famous, "It's her old man, the former Princess Zhongsu nearly gave birth, so she begged Wei Shizi, the doctor who came to the government for treatment, and it turned out In the Wangfei's room, something wrong was found, and the prince was so angry that he cleaned the palace. If it wasn't for the fact that the son and Wei Shizi were guests in the palace and saw it with their own eyes, how could the son know some unremarkable things? Objects can also make a woman fall in love!"
They also had a meeting that day, who would have thought that such a thing would happen to just an ordinary gathering.
Shen Tuqian was also very angry, otherwise he would not have let people down in front of him and Wei Jiang. Now he is a little worried, how long can he live for a person who has seen the dark history of the future emperor and empress? Woolen cloth?Worry!
Mrs. Gu didn't think about this, and after listening to her son's explanation, she felt relieved, "If it's that one, it's enough. But Mrs. Lin's natal family has some distant relatives with the Zhongyong County King's mother's family, so I can say It’s so good to be able to speak.”
At first, Jia Hu thought that this matter had nothing to do with him, but three days later, Lixiangyuan broke out. Jia Hu, who was trying to be a teacher and tutoring his younger brother, was dissatisfied, "What happened over there? What is the noise?" ?”
Yun Shu immediately ran out to inquire about the news. About half an hour later, Yun Shu came back out of breath, "Big... big... uncle, huh huh..."
"Talk slowly, what bag is there? Qingfeng, pour him a glass of water." When Yun Shu finally stopped panting like a cow, he asked, "Tell me, what happened?"
Yun Shu gulped down a large cup of tea, wiped the corner of his mouth with his sleeve when it was over, and then began to tell Jia Hu the news he had just inquired about.
"It turned out that my aunt suddenly tied up the maids and wives she had married as a dowry back to the mansion, entered the second wife's room with a whimper, and slapped the second wife indiscriminately. The wife heard the movement and went over to start a fight, and then the aunt told the root cause. It was yesterday that the aunt begged Mrs. Lin to invite the white female doctor enshrined in the eldest princess's mansion, and found several hidden secrets. The wife remembered that apart from a few pieces from the backyard of the Lin Mansion, the other most important ones were the makeup that the second wife put on when the aunt went out. Now the aunt is crying in the Lixiangyuan, and the whole yard is full of It's a mess."
Jia Hu was a little dazed, he never imagined that his rare act of kindness would have such a benefit!This is great, even the Wang family got involved together, if his stupid father still plans to order Wang Xifeng for Jia Lian in a twitch, he will have a ready-made reason to talk about it, which is great.
It's just that he doesn't understand that Wang's plan to seize the Lin family's wealth was made so early?Is it Wang's own idea, or Jia Zheng's?Or even... the Wang family?
Knowing the ins and outs of the matter, Jia Hu stopped paying attention to those people, and turned his head to tease his family Gun Gun again. If you want to say that Jia Hu's gravitational attraction to animals is still good, it's only half a month, and the little fatty Gun Gun has already Being very close to him, at least willing to let him touch his fur occasionally, Jia Hu was very satisfied, and became more and more concerned about the activities of feeding and rolling.
……
The sixteenth day of the first lunar month was Wei Jiang's thirteenth birthday.As early as a few days ago, Jia Hu had been ordered many times by Wei Jianger, lest he accidentally forget about it.
Wei Jiang also said, "You have to carefully prepare the birthday present for me. We are good friends. If the birthday present is bad, I won't accept it!"
Jia Hu: ...
Well, as a qualified good friend and partner, it is true that you can't be perfunctory. Touching the golden key hanging on your wrist, Jia Hu is very worried, is he going to bleed again?
Opening the door of the private treasury, Jia Hu started picking on his property.
This private treasury was dug before he and Mrs. Xu left Beijing. It is in the basement of Songtao Courtyard where he lives now. The most valuable ones are some antique cultural relics that have been picked up one after another since he was born, such as coral tree ornaments, jade carving ornaments, white jade ruyi, golden nanmu carvings, handed down works of ancient calligraphy masters and so on.All in all, several boxes have been packed.
Picking and picking, I finally picked a few satisfactory ones, needless to say about the Four Treasures of the Study, jade ornaments and the like, Jia Hu felt distressed and passed away, his eyes went back and forth on the paintings and calligraphy works .
Ma Dan, these things are all good things. Those antiques, calligraphy and painting works that have been auctioned at sky-high prices in later generations have never been left behind.Thinking about taking out these valuable things to give away, Jia Hu's little heart is all tangled up, just thinking about it makes his heart ache!
Sitting cross-legged among all kinds of treasures, Jia Hu turned himself into a thinker, and was hesitating when a bell rang, which was specially set up for the convenience of people outside the library looking for him in a hurry.Interrupted by this, Jia Hu put aside the matter for the time being, and went up with his head.
The person who rang the bell was Cuilan, the elder sister who had served Jia Hu for more than ten years. After she got married, Jia Hu asked her to come back to take care of his yard.
Cuilan is very clear about her young master's temper, once she enters the private treasury, if there is no urgent need to find him, Jia Hu can stay there all day!Cuilan was afraid that he would starve to death, so every time it was time to eat, she would call someone in person.
As soon as Jia Hu appeared in the room, Cuilan pulled and patted the dirt on her body, muttering, "My lord, you don't know your temperament after this, you should change it! Slave servant If you don’t take a look, are you going to mess around again? If you keep doing this, I will let my grandmother come to you and talk to you!”
Cuilan married Yu Chuang, Jia Hu's nanny brother. Jia Hu still respects Yu Chuang, the nanny Yu Yang's family who raised him. In the early years, when Jia Hu learned that Yu Chuang wanted to go out and make a fortune, he borrowed money. Give it to him, and remove Yu Chuang's slave status. As a result, he really made his own way, and the business is still booming.
The year before last, Yu Chuang wanted to take his old mother back to honor his filial piety, but Yu Yang's family had a deeper affection for this nurse son than his own son, so he insisted on refusing to agree. Juan bought a house and a shop, and with the support of Jia Hu occasionally leaking something, he started a business in the capital with peace of mind while taking care of his family.
Jia Hu knew that Cuilan was doing it for his own good, so she obediently stood there and let her scold her, and when Cuilan finished speaking, she said, "Good sister, the nanny is getting old, I'd better not let her know about my little things, Besides, you are going to be a mother now, if you love talking about me so much, be careful to make a small talk about it!"
Cuilan nodded his head angrily, this gesture seemed very intimate, that is Cuilan, try it with someone else.
"If you don't do those embarrassing things, the servants won't bother to pay attention to you."
Jia Hu shrugged, "I just don't know what kind of birthday gift I should give Wei Shizi, I just thought about it for a while. His birthday is coming soon."
As soon as Cuilan heard it, she knew what her young master was struggling with, "Are you reluctant to part with those calligraphy and paintings?"
Jia Hu nodded, looking listless.
"If you really don't want to part with those famous calligraphy and paintings, why not write or draw one yourself?" Cuilan suggested.
Wei Jiang is the only gay friend Jia Hu has made over the years, and this is the first time that Jia Hu has to personally prepare a birthday gift for a friend.The children of other aristocratic families have their servants to prepare for him, no matter how bad it is, isn't there still his wife, Mrs. Gu?No wonder he was caught blind.
Jia Hu slapped his forehead, "Really." He was restricted by people in this era, who would give away rare toys and calligraphy and painting habits of famous artists, and he had forgotten that there is such a thing as DIY.
Jia Hu happily followed Cuilan to the outside room for dinner, and immediately locked herself in the study after eating, and specifically confessed, "Today, the master is going to retreat, and no one will bother me unless it is a matter of life and death!" Later in the book As soon as the door was closed, he really went to prepare for his birthday ceremony.
After Jia Hu's birthday gift was prepared, as usual, he would show it to his mother. Except for the ones he prepared himself, Jia Hu went to find his mother with his things early on.
"That's all. It's pretty standard. There's nothing wrong with it, and it's not brilliant. You and Shizi are good friends and they're also in business together. It's just a bit trivial." Gu said tactfully.
"Mother, don't worry, my son has prepared some that I made myself, and those are the most important." Jia Hu laughed.
"That's enough." Mrs. Gu was very satisfied with her son's performance.
Jia Hu was not as soft-hearted as his mother, "There is nothing perfect in this world. My aunt wants to take it all. How easy is it? The Lin family has no children. It has been several years since my aunt got married, and there is no one." A man and a half woman, Mrs. Lin, in her old age, doesn't what she hopes for is to see a grandson born?
