After the Rebirth of the Red Chamber

When Jia Zheng was called back from his study, he was still in a daze.

Although Mr. Cheng was not happy that they disturbed Jia Zheng, a genius, he was not ignorant of current affairs after all, so he let Jia Zheng leave school early.

As soon as Jia Zheng entered Rongxi Hall, he heard Mrs. Sun say, "Zheng'er is back. Zheng'er, tell me, do you want to follow your mother or follow me?"

Jia Zheng looked blank, "Old lady, what do you mean?"

Mrs. Sun hugged him and cried, "My poor Zheng'er, they don't think well of our grandparents and grandchildren, so they have to separate our mothers. Tell them quickly, it's good for you to be with grandma."

Although Jia Zheng didn't know the situation, based on his observations over the past few years, he knew that the old lady was the authority in this family.Even the old man, in many cases, can't beat the old lady.

So, when he heard this, he immediately blurted out, "Of course the grandson will follow the old lady."

"Did you hear that?" Mrs. Sun glanced at Mrs. Shi proudly, "Zheng'er is willing to follow me."

Shi's complexion changed slightly, and he glanced at Jia Daishan with red eye circles, then lowered his head.

Obviously, she was hurt by her son's unhesitating attitude.

Jia Daishan looked around at his mother and wife, then turned to look at Jia Yuan, "Grandpa, look..."

Jia Yuan made a final decision: "That's how it is, and Zheng'er has to be willing."

"Eh...this..."

Jia Daishan was so anxious that he didn't know what to say, but Shi couldn't go on anymore.

"Then the daughter-in-law will leave first."

She saluted with sobs, retreated to the door, turned around and left in a hurry.

The Sun family won a complete victory today, and it was rare that they did not pursue Shi's rudeness, but just hugged Jia Zheng's heart and yelled.

"Hey!" Jia Daishan flicked his sleeves angrily and left.

——Obviously he is his own son, but he doesn't even have the right to teach.What is it all about!

Come on, the son can't take care of it for the time being, let's go and coax the daughter-in-law first.

When Jia Daishan returned to the East Courtyard, Shi was hiding in his room crying.

Shi Shi is really sad.

Although she kept complaining that Jia Zheng was born by her, she didn't kiss her.Because of his rivalry with the Sun family, he was quite angry with Jia Zheng, but it was not to the point of hating his son.

If Jia Zheng hesitated, even if she still chose the Sun family in the end, even if she still felt uncomfortable, she would not feel heartbroken.

But Jia Zheng didn't hesitate at all, and didn't even ask about the specific situation, just because of Sun's words, he directly chose his grandmother.

Hearing the crying, Jia Daishan stopped the hand pushing the door, turned sideways and said to Lai everyone who was guarding the door: "Go and make a bowl of pear soup for the wife."

"Yes." Everyone Lai saw that the master came to see his wife, and he was happy for his wife, so he said yes and went.

But as soon as she stepped out, she suddenly remembered something, turned around and opened the door for Jia Daishan, and said in a low voice: "The master should go and persuade the wife. The wife has been crying since she came back."

"Okay, you go."

After dismissing everyone Lai, Jia Daishan entered the house.He hesitated for a moment, closed the door with his backhand, and then walked into the inner room.

"Mrs."

Shi's crying paused, ignored him, and continued crying.

"Madam." Jia Daishan walked to the bed and called again.

Shi stopped crying, wiped his tears and asked, "Why did Master come back at this time?"

"Alas~" Jia Daishan sighed, not knowing how to speak.After hesitating for a while, he said with a little confidence, "Zheng'er is still young..."

Once a word came out, he couldn't continue.

Small or something, in the face of "filial piety", is not an excuse that can stand up at all.

These days, mourning and filial piety are very strict, even for a three-year-old child, there is no such thing as making an exception.

There was that sinister relative who, in order to seize the property of the orphans and widows, deliberately stared at people while observing filial piety, and tortured the children to death.

Suo Xingshi didn't really want to embarrass her husband. Seeing that he was speechless, he opened his mouth to help him out, "I don't blame anyone, it's just that I feel uncomfortable. I made the master laugh."

"Hey, you and my husband, what are you talking about?" Jia Daishan waved his hands and said softly, "I asked someone to make pear soup for you, and it will be served later. You can drink a bowl."

So, Shi broke his tears and laughed, "Master still remembers that my concubine likes to drink pear soup."

Jia Daishan took it for granted, "How can I forget this?"

Now, Shi's expression became more relieved, and he said very understandingly: "I have cried this scene, and I have figured it out in my heart. The old lady is getting old, and it is human nature to want to spoil her grandchildren." . Zheng'er is raised at the knee of the old lady, so it is considered to be a filial piety for our husband and wife."

"Madam is virtuous." Jia Daishan was very moved.

Shi Shi pursed his lips and smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.

——She indeed figured it out, but the place where she got it was not what she said.

She felt that since Jia Zheng didn't want her to be such a mother, she could just pretend that she didn't have this son.Anyway, she still has Xi'er, a caring little son, so she is not afraid that she will not be relied on in the future.

Poor Jia Zheng still doesn't know that starting today, he will enjoy the treatment of Jia's amnesty in his previous life.

——However, it was because Jia Amnesty cried too much in Sun's mourning hall that Shi was jealous and hated everywhere.

Speaking of which, Jia Zheng achieved his achievements a few years earlier than Jia Amnesty.

But Jia Zheng didn't know it at all, and he didn't have time to think about it now.

Because Aunt Lu had a miscarriage.

This accident was so big that it knocked Jia Zheng into a daze all at once.

——Obviously in her previous life, Aunt Lu gave birth to the eldest girl of Rongguo Mansion safely, why did she have a miscarriage this time?

Will such a big change affect his future fate?

Regardless of whether it can be affected or not, his "foresight" confidence has been breached, which makes him feel very panicked.

As his husband, Mr. Cheng noticed his absent-mindedness immediately.

Mr. Cheng had great expectations for him, and seeing that he was in a daze, he naturally wanted to ask a question or two.

Jia Zheng...what can he say?

Anyway, it is impossible to tell the truth.

"An aunt in the family had a miscarriage, and the student couldn't bear it, so she walked away in class. I hope the teacher will forgive me."

After Mr. Cheng heard this, he was very grateful for his pure heart.

Then, when communicating with Jia Daishan about Jia Zheng's study progress, he specifically mentioned it.

In any case, Jia Daishan was still very concerned about his eldest son, and when he heard that this incident had affected his son's studies, he asked Shi to investigate the matter strictly after he returned.

Shi Shi was very unhappy after hearing the cause and effect.

——My mother doesn't see you caring, but she cares a lot about this concubine.

That's right, if Jia Zheng did anything now, Shi would no longer subconsciously excuse him and push it to Sun.

Shi felt unhappy, so he reported back on the spot.

"Master, don't worry, my concubine will investigate this matter strictly." Shi Shi paused for a moment, then frowned, "It's just that Zheng'er is a man after all, always worrying about the backyard, what does it look like?"

After hearing this, Jia Daishan frowned slightly, feeling that it was not very good.

"Forget it, I'll go back and talk about him, let him put his mind on the right way."

Shi's persuasion said: "Master, please speak slowly, don't disturb the old lady again."

Jia Daishan's expression froze, he obviously thought of the old lady's method, and immediately felt a headache.

Shi Shi took the opportunity to persuade, "Otherwise, let's forget it this time. I will pay more attention in the future, and try not to let these things reach Zheng'er's ears."

Jia Daishan frowned and said, "They all live in the same mansion, how can we guard against it?"

But in the end, I won't talk about Jia Zheng anymore.

The next day, after Jia Daishan went to the yamen, everyone Lai walked in with a look of apprehension.

"What's the matter?" Shi Shi put his arms around Jia She, squeezed his son's round face, and asked happily.

Lai everyone stopped talking.

She knew that if she said this,

My wife's good mood is probably gone.

But when he saw her like this, Shi guessed that something was wrong, and his face darkened slightly, "Tell me what's going on, what else have I not gone through?"

Everyone Lai glanced at Jia She, and gave Shi Shi a wink.

Shi's eyes narrowed, he called the nanny to carry Jia She down, and asked directly: "But what's going on with Zheng'er?"

"...Madam is wise." Everyone Lai smiled apologetically, "It was the little girl from the elder brother who sent the message."

Shi Shi said lightly: "How should I say it?"

Everyone Lai glanced at Shi Shi's face again, and then said cautiously: "Brother, when he was alone, he said to himself, saying yes... that it was Aunt Lu's baby, so it shouldn't be lost."

Her voice was getting lower and lower, and the last few words were almost in her throat.

But Shi Shi still heard it.

"Hmph, he really is my good son!"

Sure enough, as everyone expected, Shi's good mood was gone.

Not to mention Shi Shi, it's everyone's fault, and I think this big brother is really... No matter who he grew up with, his wife always thinks about him, and he shouldn't be one-hearted with his wife no matter what. It's good to have an aunt.

Don't say anything else, just say that if Aunt Lu is really well, what good will it do for the elder brother?

It would be fine if Aunt Lu gave birth to a sister, but in the future it will be a matter of spending two or three thousand silver on a dowry.

If she gave birth to a brother, how much would she not get a share of his family property?

Lai everyone really can't figure it out.

How did they know that the reason why Jia Zheng did this was not because he sympathized with Aunt Lu, nor did he have any lofty sentiments of "remembering the family's heirs".

He was simply unable to sleep at night because of a major change in his life that he could not control.

Anyway, Shi Shi became more cold-hearted towards this son, and felt that the younger son was more considerate.

"Give that girl some money and let her do a good job in the future. Her benefits will be indispensable."

"Yes."

Lai everyone felt that when the wife mentioned the matter of the eldest brother, the mood seemed to be even weaker.
