After the Rebirth of the Red Chamber

About Sister Feng:

When Sister Feng was dying, she looked back on her two lives. In the previous life, she had exhausted all her tricks and died with hatred;

Sure enough, no matter what a person wants, he should work hard to get it.

If you don't fight, you can only wait for others to give alms.

Since it is given by others, then what to give to you is naturally the final decision of others, and you can't help yourself.

However, what to fight for still needs to be considered clearly.

Don't waste your energy on those illusory and unrealistic things.

For example: extravagantly expecting a man who is both romantic and unlucky to be dedicated to you;

Another example: those who want to take everything from you extravagantly will hold their hands high and return everything to you.

In her previous life, she practiced these two things with a lifetime of stupidity, but naturally she had nothing.

Fortunately, God took pity on her and allowed her to come back to the next life to make up for all the regrets in her previous life.

In the 13th year of Chengzheng, the Empress Dowager Wang died.The whole country is in mourning, honorable officials are not allowed to marry, marry and have banquets for a hundred days, and mourn for the Empress Dowager.

About Baochai:

Sitting under the ginkgo tree, Bao listened to his son's reading aloud, touched his slightly raised belly, and couldn't help showing a happy smile.

She felt that she was really lucky in this life.

When she was young, her father regarded her as the apple of the eye, raised her personally, and loved her very much.

Later, her father died young, and her mother took her and her brother to her uncle's house.

She originally thought that the life of living under the fence would not be very easy.

But my uncle is dignified and can restrain my brother.

My aunt is loving, and she doesn't despise her family as a business owner. She not only raises herself meticulously, but also finds a good husband-in-law for herself.

Her husband-in-law is a poor student, and her mother was not very satisfied.

But Baochai knew that although she lived in Cheng'en Gong's mansion, she was not a serious lady in Cheng'en's mansion after all.

Those high-ranking families who intend to acquire her are either interested in her generous dowry, or those who cling to the government.

And what good can these people do?

My aunt did not choose a son-in-law for her from among the high-ranking scholars, but chose a childhood sweetheart and cousin from among the Xinke Scholars who had a good character, a simple family background, and no mess. For Baochai, it was already the best choice. .

Because, Baochai is not willing to marry a well-matched imperial merchant. Although he will be rich and honored all his life, he will always be inferior to others.

Now, her husband is 35 years old, and the year before last, he planned to be released and became a fifth-rank magistrate.

Such an age and such an official position are not enough in the eyes of those aristocratic families.

But among the poor students, they are already young and promising.

There were quite a few people outside who said sour words, saying that her husband and son-in-law could climb so fast only by relying on his wife's nepotism and Cheng'en Gong's mansion.

Baochai knew what her husband and son-in-law could do, so she was naturally very upset.

Fortunately, the one in her family is not a hypocrite, instead of being angry, he comforted her instead: "What they said is not completely wrong, at least my uncle is here, and no one has ever dared to take credit for my contribution. If you want me to say , They are all jealous, jealous that I married a lady like you with good character and good family background."

Baochai didn't like to tease people at first, so she was so teased that she broke her face and said angrily, "You're talking nonsense again!"

Although her five-rank pleasant imperial order is nothing, she should be careful when meeting many wives of Shangguan family.

But Baochai felt very happy. Accompanied by her husband's step-by-step promotion, she got unprecedented satisfaction.

She, Xue Baochai, was not born to be a woman willing to be lonely!

About Daiyu:

Daiyu herself didn't know, she was a very lively little girl, but when she met her uncle's Baoyu, she became extremely sentimental, as if she had endless tears?

In fact, when her mother passed away and her father wanted to send her to her grandmother's house, Daiyu was not very willing.

One is that she can't bear the old father being alone, and the other is that she heard her mother talk about the affairs of her grandmother's house since she was a child, and felt that their prince's mansion was too strict, and she, a girl from a fifth-rank imperial historian, could not adapt to it.

But the father didn't know why, he insisted on going his own way and insisted on sending her away.

Between the words, it revealed: If it hadn't been for the fact that my Lin family has been passed down for several generations and has no relatives in five clothes, I would have sent her back to the family.

Daiyu knew that she couldn't change this fact.

So, just after my mother's filial piety, my father rented a big boat and entrusted Mr. Jia Yucun, a teacher, to take her to Rongguo Mansion in the capital.

She was smart and keen since she was a child, and she could tell that her father admired this Mr. Teacher when he was first invited into the mansion, but as time went by, the frequency of chatting and drinking with him became less and less.

Daiyu felt that if her mother hadn't been seriously ill and her father didn't have much energy, she might have dismissed him long ago and hired another one for her.

If it wasn't because he didn't trust Jia Yucun in his heart, his father wouldn't have to write another letter after paying him heavily, stating that he had entrusted his second uncle to seek reinstatement for him.

If his father really appreciates him and wants to help him rise to the top, why use the contacts of the Rongguo Mansion?

Not to mention my father's own classmates, fellow villagers, and the same age, their Lin family alone, although they have a look of decline, have connections that have been praised by several generations.

In the end, it was just that his father had no intention of helping him at all, but because of Daiyu, he had to pinch his nose to show him the way.

Of course, Daiyu didn't understand the latter, and she made up her own guesses about the few words and phrases revealed when her father returned to Beijing and taught her to read.

Based on what she knew about her father, her guess is also close to ten.

What happened later further proved that Jia Yucun was a cold and ungracious person.

After the grandmother passed away, the eldest uncle and the second uncle separated.

Because of the second aunt, the two brothers are enemies.

The second uncle used to rely on the contacts of the Rongguo Mansion to act, but after the separation, how could the first uncle be willing to protect him again?

Therefore, it didn't take long for the second uncle to offend Shangfeng and his colleagues, and his official position could not be guaranteed.

At this time, Jia Yucun, who had been assisted by the second uncle, was already the second rank of the official residence, and he was the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment.

The second uncle begged him for help, and he responded face-to-face, but in a blink of an eye he took the money from the second uncle's rival and trampled the second uncle to death.

In the end, Dad couldn't bear it, opened up the door, and saved the second uncle's family.

Because his father was capable and well-connected, when he returned to Beijing, the sage was in the middle of employing people again. When his father became middle-aged, his official career became smoother, and his health gradually improved.

Daiyu had heard enough gossip about the servants in Rongguo Mansion, and knew how harsh the world was on the family of extinct families.

Therefore, even though he really didn't want someone to replace his mother, for the sake of the Lin family, he endured the pain and discussed with his father, asking him to continue.

Unexpectedly, my father had thought of this long ago. After hearing what she said reluctantly, he just smiled, took out a few letters from the book, and handed them to her.

Daiyu didn't understand, but when she opened it, she found that it was a correspondence between her father and the family, to discuss the matter of adopting a step-heir from the family.

Lin Ruhai said: "When I was young, I was always proud and arrogant, and I didn't think the help of the clan was good. It wasn't until a few years ago that I was struggling in the south of the Yangtze River, and I suddenly realized: If we have a close clansman, why should we entrust you as a father?" For someone with a foreign surname?"

It turned out that the father wanted to take the opportunity to make peace with the clan.

Daiyu is naturally happy that there is no one to replace her mother.

Perhaps because of Lin Ruhai's prosperous official career, the Lin family clan responded very quickly. After two or three months, five boys under the age of ten and over five years old were sent here.

Lin Ruhai ordered the housekeeper to arrange it well, and taught them to read on weekdays, and he couldn't tell which one was special to them.

Among the five people, there was also the clever one, who wanted to please Daiyu.

Daiyu had already received her father's orders in advance, and she never refused to please anyone, but never helped her.

After another three months, Lin Ruhai had found out the details of the five children.

He combined the observation results of the past three months, and finally chose a seven-year-old child whose father died early and whose mother remarried.

Unavoidably, some people in the clan were dissatisfied, so Lin Ruhai simply divided half of the current family property to the clan, and signed a contract: after a hundred years of him, the clan can no longer make any decisions about his children's family business.

The elders of the clan have gained such great benefits, and Lin Ruhai is at a time when he can use it in the court, how can they not?

Lin Ruhai's vision is still good. Although this child is taciturn and stubborn, he is not the kind of ungrateful person.

In Daiyu's life, although her mother passed away early, she was loved by her father and supported by her brothers. Although it is not very satisfactory, it can be regarded as a happy life.

Just one thing, when she was dying, she didn't think about it clearly: why she couldn't stop being sentimental as soon as she met Baoyu from her uncle's family?

About Jia Lan and Wang Ren:

These two are people whom Sister Feng hates poisonously.

Although in this life, because Sister Feng stood too high, the two sides had no communication at all, but this did not prevent Sister Feng from taking revenge on them.

Wang Ren is easy to solve. He himself is a food, drinking, whoring, gambling, and doing everything. Sister Feng only needs to give orders not to allow anyone to help him, and he will kill himself.

Jia Lan is a little more troublesome.

Li Wan and Jia Lan, the mother and son, are both cold-hearted.

In the previous life, Li Wan was very jealous of Sister Feng because she got the right to be a housekeeper, and often used Jia Shi's sympathy to stab Sister Feng with words.

At that time, Sister Feng felt sorry for her orphans and widowed mothers, at most she would say a few words, and she never took advantage of the housekeeper's convenience to treat their mother and child harshly.

Actually, why is Li Wan jealous of Sister Feng?

Sister Feng is the eldest daughter-in-law, isn't it natural for the housekeeper to be a director?

It's just that there is a kind of person in this world who can't see others living better than her.

If this is the case, the Jia family will fall, and Li Wan and Sister Feng will not have any intersections.

However, Sister Feng never imagined that Li Wan, who claimed to be from a scholarly family, would acquiesce to her son and sell her cousin to such a place!

The upbringing of this scholarly family really opened Sister Feng's eyes!

Sister Feng knew that Li Wan had been urging Jia Lan to study, and she wanted to let Jia Lan get a good name in the exam.

Sister Feng simply let people ruin Jia Lan's appearance, so that he could no longer take the imperial examination.

With Jia Shi's death and the separation of the two households of the Jia family, the conflict between Li Wan and her mother-in-law Jia Wang finally came to the fore.

Although Jia Wang's was not smart, she was very clever in torturing her daughter-in-law, which often made Li Wan feel miserable.

When she finally boiled her mother-in-law to death, her own body also collapsed.

What's more, her lifelong wish is to let Jialan get a good name in the exam, but she has to save it for the next life to realize it.
