After the Rebirth of the Red Chamber

Wang Ziteng's side soon waited for Wang's visit.

However, Jia Min, who learned from Lin Ruhai that her mother missed her and hoped that she would return home, was puzzled.

"Didn't I just go back a few days ago? At that time, my mother persuaded me, saying that I was already a wife of the Lin family, so I should not go back to my mother's house all the time. Otherwise, the old people of the Lin family would definitely criticize me and think that I did not take The Lin family is my own home. It’s only been a few days, why did you suddenly ask the second brother to send a message to let me go back?"

Lin Ruhai didn't hide anything from her, and said bluntly, "I'm afraid it's not what my mother-in-law meant, but my second uncle."

"Second brother?"

Jia Min is not stupid.On the contrary, she is also very smart.

After contacting the cause and effect, she made a rough guess, and said angrily, "Mother is very old, and my second brother really has the heart to make her look down and beg for help!"

So what if Jia Min is his daughter?

Since it is Jia Zheng's matter, it is naturally an outside matter.How can Jia Min, a housewife, manage to go to court?

Shi Shi said that he was discussing with his daughter, but after all, he was indirectly begging his son-in-law?

Don't talk about a half-son-in-law, he doesn't have the same surname as you, and you are in love with you, so you can take it for granted?

At this time, Jia Min didn't know that for Mrs. Jia, she could really take the Lin family as a matter of course.

——After all, she loves Min'er so much, what's wrong with asking Lin Ruhai to do something for her?

Regarding Jia Min's complaint, Lin Ruhai just smiled and didn't speak.

Because he really couldn't say anything.

On the contrary, Jia Min asked Lin Ruhai seriously after his anger subsided: "Will the matter requested by the second brother make your husband difficult in the court?"

Don't blame her for facing her husband's family, just like what mother said, she is already the wife of the Lin family, and everything should be based on the interests of the Lin family.

Her husband's career is in a transitional period, so he can't ruin his future because of the second brother.

Speaking of this, Lin Ruhai was also helpless: "Second brother-in-law didn't disclose what it was for. It's just that Zuobu just mixed up with Seizing the Inheritance, and was tricked by others."

At the mention of the word "seizing the heir", Jia Min's complexion changed slightly, and he said to Lin Ruhai, "Don't worry, my husband, I know what to do."

Not to mention the risk of seizing the heir since ancient times, just because Lin Ruhai has decided to be a pure minister, Jia Min will not let him get involved for the sake of her natal family.

Lin Ruhai is naturally happy that his wife is of one mind with him.

only……

"Mother-in-law..."

Jia Minxiu frowned slightly, and after a while, she gritted her teeth: "I'll call you sick first, and I'll visit my mother in a few days."

This is also impossible.

Because Jia Min knows very well that although her mother loves her, she loves her second brother Jia Zheng even more.

Although she didn't know what the second elder brother's strengths were, her mother was all-in on her. If the Jia family wanted to restore the lintel, they had to rely on Jia Zheng.

The next day, Jia Min sent someone to Rongguo Mansion to take the forehead wipe that he had personally made for his mother, and apologise for her, saying that she was ill and could not leave the mansion for the time being.

At that time, Jia Zheng was waiting for news from Jia's mother, and Mrs. Wang had gone back to her mother's house.

"Mother, this..." Jia Zheng looked at Jia's mother in embarrassment, sweat broke out on his forehead, "It seems that my brother-in-law is unwilling to help, what should I do?"

Mother Jia was not happy either.

Like Jia Zheng, she didn't think Jia Min didn't want to come, but Lin Ruhai refused to help, so she didn't let Jia Min come back.

But seeing that Jia Zheng had no opinion at all when he was in trouble, Jia's mother couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

When she was young, in order to win over her mother-in-law, she held her son up and suppressed her elder son everywhere.

Besides, after all, the youngest son was raised by his side since he was a child, so he was naturally more considerate than the elder son who was raised by the old godly woman for several years and never got close to her.

Therefore, she defended him all the time, and even wished she could persuade her husband to give the title to her youngest son.

However, perhaps because of being overprotected, this son has always been less responsible, which made him worry: she is fine now when she is here, but what will Zheng'er do when she is gone in the future?

Then, she thought of her son-in-law Lin Ruhai.

Shi Shi was very dissatisfied when he married his daughter to him.

Do you think Min'er, the dignified eldest daughter of the Duke's Mansion, even if she is not worthy of being a relative of the emperor, no matter what, she has to find someone who is motivated in the noble family?

I hate her husband, Jia Daishan, who insists on going his own way, and insists on promising Min'er to the poor Lin family to settle down.

For so many years, Lin Ruhai has been wasting time with low-level officials, and her Min'er has to go out to smile with others, which makes Shi feel uncomfortable.

But now she has to admit that her husband's vision is indeed better than hers, and this Lin Ruhai is actually a character in the emperor's heart.

Otherwise, if he was transferred back to the capital from the local area, how could he not be demoted by half a level?

Moreover, there are rumors that the sage put him in the Ministry of Rites temporarily, and he must be reused in the future.

Shi believed that he had never treated Lin Ruhai badly in these years, and felt that he should not refuse to let him take care of Jia Zheng in the future.

But he didn't expect that when something happened, he wouldn't even allow her daughter to go back to her mother's house!

The more Shi thought about it, the more angry he felt that Lin Ruhai was ungrateful.

However, she forgot that Lin Ruhai had reminded them long ago not to act rashly during this time.

It was Jia Zheng himself who couldn't bear the temptation of promotion and tried to frame Shangfeng, but was caught and threatened by others. How can anyone else be blamed?

Jia Zheng said anxiously, "I don't know if there is any connection with brother-in-law?"

Jia's mother didn't have much hope for Wang Ziteng. How could Wang Ziteng, a military officer, get involved in civil affairs?

The reason why she asked the Wang family to go back was to see if there was anything useful in the Wang family's connections.

******

Facing his younger sister who is always righteous and confident, Wang Ziteng finally ran out of patience.

"I've already said that our Wang family has been far away from the court for too long. I don't have enough contacts for myself. Where can I help Jia Zheng?"

If he really had that connection, he would have switched from Wu to Wen a long time ago, and would he still be in the Shenji camp for his seniority?

But what Wang heard was that he had contacts, but he wanted to keep them for himself and not waste them on Jia Zheng.

The Wang family immediately became dissatisfied: "My brother is a military officer of the Shenji Camp. What's the use of contacts in the court? Could it be that your brother-in-law will become prosperous in the future, will you not pull your brother out?"

Wang Ziteng felt that his sister was becoming more and more unable to understand human speech.

Also, expect Jia Zheng to pull him out?

He might as well hope for the sun to come out in the west!

He didn't understand. In such an extraordinary period, even a person like himself who was not in the court could feel the turmoil. Where did Jia Zheng get the confidence to not obediently behave like a man with his tail between his legs, and dare to join in?

Moreover, Shangfeng was still framed.

The point is, he didn't know whether the person who asked him to do this was a member of the third prince or the sixth prince. Just because he was granted the position of a fourth-rank doctor, he didn't think about it. He really did it. up!

Asked his sister to go back to her natal home for help, but she didn't know what to ask.He only knew that Jia Zheng was a member of the prince's party at the top, but he didn't know anything about the rest.

Wang Ziteng was already four or five points sure that Jia Zheng followed his advice and was framed by those who were watching his position as Yuanwailang.

Nowadays, don't say that you are thinking about other people's doctor's position, whether this foreigner's position can be kept or not is another matter!

Looking at his upset sister, Wang Ziteng didn't want to talk nonsense with her, so he told her his guess and sent her back.

——From the looks of it now, he should stay in Shenjiying for a few more years, and when the limelight passes, he will think about switching to a civil servant.

If it doesn't work, he will try harder, and it will be easier to get the fame of Jinshi than it is now.

******

Not to mention what crisis Wang Ziteng saw from it, Lin Ruhai has already figured out the cause and effect.

Just as Wang Ziteng guessed, what happened this time was not instigated by the people above at all, but that Jia Zheng had been sitting in the position of foreigner for too long and blocked his way.

Why did his Shangfeng catch him so easily?

Because this is designed by others!

There are four divisions in the Ministry of Industry, each with a Langzhong, a Yuanwailang, a principal, and several clerks.

It was supposed to be done by three people, but Jia Zhengbai has been a Yuanwailang for so many years, but he hasn't even read the most basic files, and he only drinks tea every day when he enters the Ministry of Industry.

Because of the connections of the Jia family, his position is quite stable, so why not be hated?

There are too many people who don't like him!

Among them, the Langzhong and the principal who are with him in the Dushui Division are the most.

As the name suggests, the Dushui Division is in charge of the world's water conservancy.

Not to mention anything else, just looking at how much money the imperial court allocates for water control every year, you can know how rich this department is.

It would be fine if Jia Zheng was willing to be with Guang Tongchen, but he was a hypocrite, so that those who were in Dushui didn't even dare to let go of the filial piety that they took for granted.

As the saying goes, cutting someone's money is like killing their parents, and the Ministry of Industry is headed by the water department. Who wouldn't expect him to be unlucky and change to someone who was with them?

Therefore, the Langzhong of the Dushui Division just set up a small bureau, but with the cooperation of the Dushui Division, Jia Zheng fell into the pit very smoothly.

Lin Ruhai was speechless for a long while, thinking that Jia Zheng should be taken out of the capital water department and transferred to the Tuntian department, which has relatively clean water.

After having an idea, Lin Ruhai talked to Jia Min and sent her back to her natal home after letting her know.

Jia Min thought about it all the way, but still felt that her family should not let Lin Ruhai do this easily.

Otherwise, there will only be more such things in the future.They already have Ying'er, and the resources of the Lin family will be reserved for Ying'er in the future.

Of course, if the husband and wife are lucky enough to give Yinger a younger brother and sister in the future, that would be even better.

Jia Min led Lin Ying into the Chunxi Hall, and after meeting Jia's mother, she pretended not to know anything, and only wentssiped with her mother.

Mrs. Wang, who was sitting at the bottom, was anxious, and wanted to speak several times, but was stared back by Mrs. Jia.

Song Shi opposite her curled her lips silently, remembering Jia She's order, she had made up her mind that today she only has ears, not a mouth.
