[Red Chamber] Jia Lian has an ancestor system

Since the death of the concubine Yuan, Jia Baoyu stayed in the mansion for some time.At first he was a little sad, but as time passed, he felt that he would eventually go, and that if he went earlier, he might be reborn sooner.

So Cheng Ri's family said some frustrating words, which made Xi Ren really worried.

Moreover, he really dislikes imperial examinations and has no interest in doing business. Even going to the family school, he lives in Cao Ying and his heart is in Han.Mrs. Wang saw that he was bored in the mansion, but went out to fool around. These days, I heard that he was entangled with those actors again... Thinking about it, Mrs. Wang felt worried, and finally she couldn't help it, so she asked Jia Lian for help.

Jia Lian said: "Baoyu doesn't have much time for reading, but I think he was very interested in building a family school in Jinling, so why not let him go back to Jinling to supervise this matter, and also learn to manage those field mus. In the future, the family school will also be opened, and the teacher will be invited to recruit students, and he can learn something there."

Mrs. Wang couldn't think of any other better way, so she nodded her head in agreement.

Jia Baoyu has also taken a lot of light lately, he will not fight or make trouble, let him go back to Jinling, he will go back to Jinling obediently, and go to build the village.

In July, the weather turns cold.

The battle in the west is in a hurry, but this day there is news that General Wei was captured alive by the barbarians and killed himself by cutting his throat.

At that time, the barbarians captured General Wei alive. They originally wanted to threaten the general's life. I didn't want this young general in his forties to take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness in the enemy camp and find an opportunity. Willing to become a bargaining chip for the enemy to threaten.

Although the death was heroic, the capture of a general of the army is not a glorious thing after all. It fueled the arrogance of the barbarians and suppressed our morale.

Hearing this, the emperor was furious, threw the memorial under the desk, and shouted: "Even the commander of the war has been captured, how can he have the face to come back? Let General Wei's body be abandoned in the wilderness, and it is not allowed to be transported back!"

Several officials were so frightened that they fell silent and did not dare to speak again.

When Jia Lian received the news, he was very surprised... He never expected that the former General Shiwei followed him to defeat the battle, which caused the marriage. In this life, Tanchun's sister does not have to make a marriage, but he was captured alive, and even his body was killed. They are not allowed to be transported back... It can be seen that his guess is not wrong, these big families will inevitably perish together in the end.

Wei Ruolan was filled with grief and indignation, and swung his sword wildly around the shooting range in the suburbs alone. When Jia Lian and Xue Pan rushed over, his hair was disheveled and half of his upper body clothes were taken off.

"Brother Wei, please mourn." Jia Lian had nothing else to say, so he could only comfort him in this way.

Wei Ruolan said: "Father's subordinates came down and said that the reason why father was captured was not because of his own weakness, but because of other reasons!"

Jia Lian and Xue Pan asked in surprise, "What's going on?"

"The soldiers in the army have been at odds for a long time, and they work in separate battalions. Because his father won several battles in a row, he was tabooed by the commander and sent him to do some missions to spy on the enemy. When he went to spy on the army, he was ambushed by the barbarian army. Those subordinates are not the subordinates who have been with my father for many years. They will scatter when they find out that there is an ambush. Father is alone and brave, so..."

Wei Ruolan beat a poplar tree, her grief couldn't be concealed: "Now that I can't even bring back my father's bones, I'm really ashamed to be a son of man."

Jia Lian didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only sigh with Xue Pan.

At this moment, the manager of the Wei Mansion rode over and shouted: "Master, it's not good, my wife..."

Hurrying back to the Wei Mansion, the Wei family's mother had already lost her breath, and the walls, tents, and screens of the room were all dripping with blood.

Wei Ruolan burst into tears, and the sound of crying and howling resounded in the sky above the mansion.

Jia Lian helped Wei's mansion with the funeral arrangements, comforted Wei Ruolan a lot, and did not return to Jia's mansion until late at night.

The next day, I told Jia Mu about these matters, and Jia Mu was silent for a long time, and only said: "He is the only one left in the Wei family, and you can help as much as you can."

Jia Lian repeatedly agreed.

But it was said that after Xia Jingui returned to Xue's house, there was a small quarrel for three days and a big quarrel for five days, and the family was restless.When it came to this, Aunt Xue felt that it was a good thing to reconcile and leave, so she thought about it and took it lightly, and asked Xia Jingui to bring her dowry back to her natal family, and gave her two shops as compensation.

A grievous marriage has finally come to an end, and the courtyard of Xue's family is finally quiet.

At this time, Xue Biao asked Liu Xianglian to escort a batch of goods back to the capital, which is expected to arrive in early August.

Xue Baochai said: "Mom, since the current situation is like this, there is a better chance for us to go south with our family."

Aunt Xue glanced at her beloved daughter, although she didn't respond immediately, her eyes were full of approval.

She also said: "Xiuyan's father has also passed away, and she and her mother are dependent on each other. Since we are leaving, Xiuyan will marry into Xue's family sooner or later, so she simply plans to take her and her widowed mother to Guangzhou. The whole family It’s also a response.”

Xue Baochai nodded and said, "That's fine too, Brother Tad would not disagree. It's just, Qin'er..."

Xue Baoqin has been with her these days, and the two sisters help manage the shop together.Although Aunt Xue wanted to let Baoqin get married as soon as possible, but Jia's family has three years of filial piety, so it is impossible to get married anyway.

She said: "The only plan for now is to ask the old lady what she means first."

As a result, before Aunt Xue went to Jia's mansion, Jia Lian heard the news first and came to the door.

Jia Lian said: "My aunt, don't blame me for being troublesome. I also wanted to come here to discuss Miss Qin's matter after hearing Brother Xue mentioning that you were going south."

Jia Lian was worried that Jia's mansion would be copied, if Xue Baoqin arranged to enter the garden, he would definitely be implicated.He came here this time to persuade them to take Baoqin to Guangzhou first.

Jia Lian said something like: "It's not like Xiuyan, we can get married right away, we still have three years of filial piety, we are afraid of damaging Baoqin's reputation, and we are also worried that people with ulterior motives will use it to make a fuss, saying that the Jia family has broken the rules of filial piety. "

When Aunt Xue heard this, she said repeatedly: "It turned out that I was short-sighted and forgot about this level. If that's the case, it's better for Baoqin to go to Guangzhou with us first."

When Jia Lian went back to the mansion, the old lady said the same thing.

Jia Mu nodded and said: "Since their business in Guangzhou has improved, these are all good things. There is also hope for Tanyatou in the future. Both parties are involved, so there is no need to worry too much."

"That's right, old lady, I think so too. When the period of filial piety is over, it can be said to be a complete marriage."

Jia Lian said so, but he thought in his heart, three years is so long, how many variables are there?If you can plan for them, plan early.

The third day of August is Mother Jia's birthday. The old lady has been unhappy lately, and she is tired all day long. In addition, Yuanchun just passed away, so she doesn't want to celebrate her birthday.I just plan to accept everyone's congratulations early in the morning on my birthday, eat a bowl of birthday noodles, and finish things hastily.

Finally, after eating the birthday noodles, Hu Po quickly came to report: "Old lady, the concubine is here."

princess princess!Everyone was shocked and hurried out to meet him.

With the support of Sister Feng and Mrs. Wang, Jia's mother came to the courtyard and saw Daiyu, who was so beautiful.According to the etiquette, Jiamu should kneel down to welcome Jiamu, but Daiyu quickly stepped forward to support Jiamu, and said: "Grandmother must not, how can granddaughter accept such a great gift."

Zijuan, Xueyan and other maidservants also rushed to help Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Youshi, Tanchun and other wives and misses.

Daiyu held Jiamu's hand and said softly, "Grandmother's birthday, granddaughter will naturally come to congratulate her. Let's get along as usual. This is what Your Highness means."

After Jia Mu heard this, joy gradually crept onto her face, and she said, "His Royal Highness Jia treats you so kindly, and I am also happy. Let's go back and sit in the room."

When the group returned to the house, Daiyu helped the old lady sit on the soft couch, and she sat with her.

Jia Mu said: "Because the concubine Yuan passed away, it is inconvenient to make a big deal. I originally wanted to have a bowl of birthday noodles with everyone, but forget it. I don't think you will come."

Sister Feng smiled and said: "The old lady has been thinking about you, she was still sighing before, but now she is smiling and her mood is better."

Daiyu said: "I can stay longer today, and my grandmother can rest assured."

After that, he ordered Zicuckoo to present some congratulatory gifts, tonics such as ginseng and bird's nest, a few bolts of high-quality silk and satin, and other things.

She glanced at Tanchun again, and said, "I heard that sister Tanchun is also engaged, but I haven't congratulated my sister yet."

Tanchun got up and squatted down to salute.Daiyu ordered Zicuckoo to bring over a brocade box and said, "With this kind of heart, I have the right to congratulate my sister on her engagement."

Tan Chunming took the brocade box with his own hands, and said some words of gratitude before handing it over to the servant.

Jia Mu said: "I have wronged the child, and I can't say anything about my engagement."

But Daiyu said: "The most rare thing is to meet a beautiful woman and get a good relationship. There is no need to be extravagant and flamboyant."

"I also have the same reasoning. The child Xianglian has experienced some things, and she has matured and acted sensiblely. I feel relieved when I look at it."

Daiyu had lunch with the others, and accompanied by Xiangyun and Tanchun, they went back to the garden.

It is such an early autumn, and the scenery in the garden is still the same.Standing on a small hillside, looking at Yihong Courtyard, Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Fengyao Bridge and various pavilions, streams, ponds and lakes...all kinds of past days come to the fore.

Lin Daiyu couldn't help sighing: "Many things happened only last year, but now I think about it, it seems like a lifetime ago."

Xiangyun said: "Too many things have indeed happened in the past few years, which has to be embarrassing."

Tanchun took over the words: "At the beginning when we set up a poetry club, Lu Xue'an combined poetry, it was so lively and enjoyable..."

"Yes, it's vivid in my memory..." Lin Daiyu said, but she was no longer sad, but changed the subject and asked, "Second sister, fourth sister, and Miaoyu are all in Jinling, how are they doing?"

"The letter said that several sisters live together in the countryside of Jinling, but they are free and at ease. Even Baoyu is busy participating in the construction there. We all think that maybe he is sensible." Tanchun broke off a wicker, playing with it. explain.

Lin Daiyu nodded as she walked: "He is such a rich and gentle man, it may not be a good thing for him to do some practical things."

Talking while walking, until Yuanyang came over and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness is here to pick up your empress."

Everyone smiled and accompanied Lin Daiyu out of the garden.

Lin Daiyu turned around and took another look at the garden, then at the two sisters...

My heart is silent: Although each has its own ups and downs, each has its own home after all.
