Old Lady Jia through the Red Mansions

Chapter 56 The Worried Old Lady

The Jia family, the old lady knew that Jia She went to the palace to meet the emperor that day.

On the first day, Jia Amnesty discussed with Lin Ruhai how to face Sheng.

When I came back, I told her about it, and the old lady asked:

"You just take a few corns and a bag of potatoes to see the Holy Majesty?"

"Yes!"

"You don't have a recipe, so just take it, and the Holy Majesty has never eaten such a thing, who would believe you?"

"That's true, but we don't know what the recipe is..."

"Okay, okay, Amber, go and get the pen and ink."

"Yes."

"Mother, this is..."

"I said, you write, write down the simplest recipes, and take them with you when you go to see the Holy One. Sometimes the Holy One asks the cook to do it. Only after tasting it will he believe that these are really grains and Really edible."

"It's still mother who is thoughtful!"

Of course, the old lady didn't say how complicated it is, and the potatoes are only braised in brown sauce and vinegared.The practice of corn is slightly more.

After all, these are new items.If you come up with a bunch of recipes at once, people will ask: It is obviously freshly grown food, and no one else knows if it can be eaten, so you just make a bunch of recipes, how did this recipe come from?Doesn't this put doubts in front of others and make people question them?

When Jia She entered the palace that day, he set off from the old lady.Therefore, in Jia's house, everyone will know about this matter. Apart from Jia She and the old lady, there is no third person who knows about this matter.

In the little impression the old lady had, the emperor was quite a good person.I can have this impression because they didn't see him get angry when their family was so noisy.At least, when Jia She went to pay back the money, he got a reward.And also helped their family keep it a secret, and didn't say it out.

Therefore, the old lady was not worried about Jia She's entering the palace that day.

However, the old lady's heart sank before seeing Jia Amnesty come back after noon.

I thought: Didn't I just take a few corns, a few potatoes and so on to show the emperor?Is it necessary to watch it for so long?Even if you want to cook and eat, during this period of time, you have to cook one by one, and you should finish cooking, right?Even if you add that kind of potato, it won't take so long to cook!

Could it be that because the emperor was bored, he wanted to break out the corn one by one and eat it slowly?If this is the case, I don’t know, when will he eat it?If he really wants to eat such a wonderful one by one, it's not too little, not enough to fit between his teeth?

Besides, the eldest son just wanted to do something for the country out of good intentions, and the emperor should not embarrass him!Maybe, if the emperor is happy, he will give the eldest son a reward!

Think about how many farmers will be able to eat enough if corn and potatoes are popularized.How many people can survive winter because they have food!For an emperor, that's a great thing, right?right?

I haven't come back for so long, is it because the emperor is so happy that he rewarded her son to try the imperial meal?The old lady thought to herself comfortingly.

The old lady ate lunch listlessly, and her appetite was less than half of her usual amount.Put down your chopsticks and say:

"Eat slowly, I'm full."

As soon as the old lady put down the chopsticks, Jia Lian, who was eating with his head down, suddenly widened his eyes and asked:

"Is grandma unwell? Why do you eat so little?"

"Grandma is fine, it's just that she doesn't have any appetite at the moment."

"Then, why don't you have another bowl of porridge, grandma!" Yuan Chun said cautiously.

"Yes, mother, let's eat some more!" Mrs. Zhang on the other side also persuaded.

The old lady looked at everyone's expectant eyes, bit the bullet and drank another small bowl of porridge.I couldn't eat anymore, and I was really worried that something would happen to Jia She.

In the blink of an eye, noon passed, and Jia Amnesty hadn't come back yet!The old lady couldn't help but doubt her own thoughts.Who made the imperial power supreme in this era?Whether the emperor is happy or not is on his mind.Maybe he was happy one moment, but the next moment he is in a bad mood, and when he is in a bad mood, he will find someone to vent his anger on.

Jia Amnesty can be considered a relatively smooth temper!But sometimes he gets carried away.

Once he gets carried away, he becomes a chatterbox.

The old lady has learned from his chatter.At that time, when the old lady learned how to identify antiques from him, he was able to say that he was not tired all day long.

He was bored at the time, so he could say whatever he wanted, and he didn't stop him.Didn't come back now, is it because he dedicated things to the emperor, and the emperor praised him casually when he was happy.

Then, he got carried away when he was happy, and then evolved into a chatterbox.Wow, wow, talk to the emperor endlessly, right?

The old lady can listen to his nagging, but that is the emperor!Why did he suddenly become so out of tune?In front of the emperor, is it possible to change the language?He was not very courageous, how could he dare to evolve in front of the emperor?Hello son!Do you want to be so scary?

The old lady could only worry secretly, after all, no one else knew about it, so they couldn't worry about it, right?

Looking at the daughter-in-law who was still calm on the other side.Sigh secretly: Blessed are the ignorant!

Because he didn't know what the outcome of the matter would be, Jia Amnesty didn't tell anyone else in the family except the old lady.

In Jia She's heart, he is used to reporting to his mother everything he does.He always felt that after talking to his mother, he was more at ease in doing things.

If one day he forgets to tell his mother, he will be restless all day when he goes out.It always feels like something is missing.Mother, isn't she the treasure of their family!

Therefore, if there is anything, the first thing he thinks of is to discuss it with his mother, not his second brother or anyone else.

Just when the old lady returned to her yard, she told Yuanyang to ask someone to go to the gate and tell the gatekeeper that Jia Amnesty should go to her yard first when she came back.

After waiting for no one for so long, the old lady became restless and looked out of the door from time to time, and then thought of the worst plan by herself.

I don't know how long it took, and finally, I heard outside:

"Master is back!"

"Master is back!"

The old lady's heart that hung on her lips finally fell back to her chest!

Immediately afterwards, Jia Amnesty was seen carrying something into her courtyard.

The old lady, who was still watching at the door, was so arrogant once, she quickly returned to the chair, sat down, and picked up the teacup on the table, only to find that there was no tea in it!

The old lady rolled her eyes secretly, thinking:

"As expected, I am still an old lady who only has the consciousness of a small peasant in my heart! It is not a life to enjoy. When I got here, I was obviously a rich old lady, but in the end I let myself become a peasant old lady!"

"Mother, my son is back!" Jia She shouted as soon as he entered the door.

"Just come back! By the way, how are things going?"

"The Holy Majesty said that it must be promoted. Fortunately, we recorded the process when we planted it. My son has presented it to the Holy Majesty. The Holy Majesty said that the officials in charge of farming will promote it. I recommended to the Majesty those who help us plant Corn farmers, when the time comes, His Majesty may give those people a ninth-rank petty official and let them follow along to promote it. He said he would not tell anything about our family."

"That's good. Why do you take so long to talk about such a little thing?"

"Hehe... I just chatted with the Holy One for a while. Later, seeing that it was almost time for lunch, the Holy Majesty left me to have lunch in the palace." Jia She said with a smirk.

"Oh? Then, what are you talking about?"

Jia Amnesty thought that he had told His Majesty about his mother, how could he have the nerve to say so?Then he said hesitantly:

"Y-nothing..."

The old lady asked suspiciously:

"Really nothing?"

Jia Amnesty thought for a while, and finally found someone he could talk to and ask his mother for her opinion.said:

"The Holy Majesty told his son that the treasury was not making ends meet."

After hearing what Jia She said, the old lady twitched the corners of her mouth, and a drop of sweat fell from her forehead. She thought to herself: This emperor is also incomprehensible. Shouldn't he discuss such matters with his confidant ministers?Why ask his opinion!Really.

I don't know if this nagging son has any great opinions?

"Treasury, what do you have to say to an empty-headed general like you? Could it be that the Holy Majesty wanted to hear his opinion, and you just randomly gave his opinion to the Holy Majesty?"

Hearing his mother's question, Jia Amnesty suddenly felt his back go cold, and after thinking about it, he realized that he, as if, as if, did say something that offended many people.Hastily said:

"Mother……"

When the old lady heard what Jia She said, her face turned dark!I can't wait to punch his stupid head hard to make you chatter and make you impulsive.He thought again, at this moment, even smashing his head flat is useless!

Sure enough, the ancestors were right when they said 'you can eat more food, but you can't talk nonsense'-this is a typical 'disaster comes from your mouth'!

The old lady said with a dark face:

"Are you regretting it now? Isn't it too late? At that time, your mother told you that before talking to others outside, you should first think about whether those words can be said in your head. Fortunately, you can turn your mouth faster than your head. "

"Well, I already said..."

"Yes, I have already said it. What do you say?"

"Son, son, I don't know."

"Okay, I've said it all, remember to think about it before you speak next time!"

"Son remembers."

"Your Majesty's reaction is probably not to say what you said, you should put your heart back! No matter where you go next time, just remember to keep your mouth shut!"

"Yes." Jia She replied weakly to the old lady. He really felt that he had done something wrong.Fortunately, the Holy One was not angry, otherwise, he probably wouldn't even be able to go home!Maybe he also harmed their family, then he became a sinner in the family!

Seeing Jia She's drooping head, the old lady was speechless.Said reassuringly:

"Money is hard to buy, I knew it earlier, just remember the lesson from this time. Don't think too much!"
