Lin Ruhai of the Red Chamber Reborn

Jia Daishan is dead?

Li Xun and Li He's father and son looked at each other in blank dismay, they were rarely silent, they knew their destiny at fifty, and Li Xun was also over fifty, only a few years younger than Jia Daishan.

Li He sighed, and said: "Mr. Rong was injured countless times in battles in the early years, and he suffered from many diseases. I think he has chronic chronic illnesses, so he can't afford to be ill, but he has disappeared so long ago." It seems to explain the ins and outs of Jia Daishan's death, but in fact it is to comfort his father. Although he is also in his 50s, he does not have the injuries of Jia Daishan.

After a long time, Li Xun just said to Li He: "Since Rong Guogong is gone, our two families are relatives by marriage, we should go there and tell your daughter-in-law. Can someone enlighten me on homework? Is there someone to teach me? If everything is fine, that’s all. If not, let me know. Although we can’t put Lian’er in front of us, we can take it from time to time. If you stay here for a while, you can't let him learn the habits of Enhou."

Li He nodded in agreement, and explained to his wife Zhong Shi in this way.

The Li family's family style is very clean and upright, and the population is small, dirty things are rare. When Zhong Shi entered the house, he and his sister-in-law were very friendly. It's a pity that she was unhappy during her lifetime, and she passed away after she had a child. Hearing her husband's words, she was very busy. Ask why.

Li He was afraid that she would not know the world affairs and miss the big things outside, so he explained it to her in detail.

Mrs. Zhong was furious, and said: "It's strange that when Mrs. Gu comes to our house as a guest, she often asks what the master usually does, and what the old master usually does. Mr. Gu is an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf! Now that I know it today, I have an idea. Just rest assured, master. As for Lian'er, I will also find out about it, and I will accept it in the name of the old lady who misses the aunt. He's coming to stay for a few days."

The four families of Jia Shi Wang Xue are considered top-notch in Jinling, and the Rongguo Mansion in the capital is also the same, because the Rongguo Mansion is only slightly inferior to the royal family, the clan and other princes' mansions, and Jia Daishan, the Duke of Rongguo, is highly valued by the saints, so this funeral It was very lively, but what surprised Li Xun, Li He and his son the most was the reward from the sage that day, who approved Jia Daishan's final memorial and awarded Jia Zheng the title of master.

Li He chuckled lightly, with a bit of sarcasm in his voice: "It seems that Rong Guogong is very kind to the current political master." As a scholar who was born as a Jinshi, he naturally looked down upon failing the exam several times and finally didn't want to continue to only get one. The kind Jia Zheng.

Failure to pass the imperial examination before the age of 30 is nothing at all. Few of the children of aristocratic families are born with fame and fame. He was born in the imperial examination, but unexpectedly he failed to pass the exam, and now he still relies on the shadow of his ancestors, which is very ironic. When he was young, Jia Zheng was a character who enjoyed poetry and wine, but now he is extremely pedantic, even Li He can see it. No, let alone others.

The title of the principal is the official position of the sixth rank. A person who has not participated in the imperial examination, relying on his father's shadow, has become an official of the sixth rank. How can he not be envied and jealous? The title, how can it compare to the actual position of being a master, and he himself is not up to date, and he doesn't know how much the title of duke after the filial piety will be lowered to him.

Mother Jia ordered someone to send a letter to Jia Min, and at the same time ordered Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng to take care of the funeral with all their heart and soul. It's extremely inconvenient, as is the case in this world.

As the eldest son and grandson, Jia Lian was carried in by the nanny. Although everyone praised her for her beautiful appearance, Jia Zhu was the one who was praised the most by everyone. Incessantly, if my sister-in-law is still alive, why is this so? So I ordered my confidant, the mother-in-law, to often chat with the servants of the Rongguo Mansion, inquire about everything in the mansion, and when she was resting, she went to see Jia Lian. She is Jia Lian's aunt. This is a reasonable move, but I don't care much about it.

Jia Lian was so clever that he still remembered Zhong Shi, sitting in Zhong Shi's arms and kept calling her aunt, very sweetly.

Because of Li's death, the family of Jia and Li didn't have as much contact with each other as before, but it's not like they didn't have any contact. After all, Jia Lian was the only son left by Li.

While greeting others with a smile, Zhong asked Jia Lian what he usually eats at home.

At that time, Jia's mother was not there, only Mrs. Wang was sitting and talking with several imperial wives. Jia She's wife had passed away, and Jia Zheng's wife, Mrs. Wang, was white. They are all imperial orders. Even if Jiamu orders the Wang family to be in charge, Jiamu must accompany her herself. Of course, the princesses, princesses and concubines are the most important.

Holding the fruit in his hand, Jia Lian blinked his black and white eyes, and said with a smile: "The old lady and the second aunt dote on me very much. Big brother and big sister have some, so I do."

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but smile, and when they looked at Mrs. Wang, they looked kindly.

Zhong teased him and said: "Your elder brother and elder sister were enlightened at the age of three, and now they can read several books. You are three and a half years old this year. Are you able to read and write like your elder brother and elder sister?"

Jia Lian said innocently: "What is reading and literacy?"

Zhong's complexion suddenly changed, and everyone felt something was wrong when they heard it.

Mrs. Wang glanced at Mrs. Zhong secretly, but she didn't have any fear in her heart. She was just an aunt, not a mother. If she couldn't take care of her own children, she wouldn't care about the nephew in the next room. Besides, even Jia Amnesty didn't care about Jia Lian. He said with a smile, "Lian'er is still young. What's the rush? Recently, the Duke is not doing well, and the old lady is too busy to save her life. She originally said that she would invite Lian'er to have a husband in a few days, but unexpectedly, the Duke is gone. Just have to wait a little longer."

Zhong smiled slightly, and said: "It should be so, naturally it is the Duke's business that matters."

When I came back, I told Li He what I had heard in the Rongguo Mansion, and said, "I shouldn't talk too much about it, it's just that I know that Lian'er said that she was treated with the second wife and a pair of children, the eldest son of the good boy. The grandson followed the second room instead, I think it might not be too late. There are at least seven or eight second-class maids and seven or eight third-class maids around their brother Zhu and sister Yuan, and brother Zhu and four wet nurses. , four nanny, but around Lian'er there are only three or four second-class maids, five or six little girls, four nanny, and only one nanny from the Zhao family, all the aunt's former servants have been sent out. Brother Zhu and Sister Yuan each have husbands, both hired when they were three years old, half a year ago when Lian'er was three years old, Duke Rong was doing well!"

Li He's face darkened, and he said coldly: "You can't count on Enhou. I don't care about my son. Others are separated by a house. Who cares if Lian'er can make progress? Even if Lian'er is from the Duke's mansion." The eldest son and grandson, but with Zhugeer Zhuyu in front and Enhou invincible behind, Duke Rong and Taijun Shi would not care about him."

Mrs. Zhong sighed, and said no more. Indeed, she couldn't be too harsh on the head of the Rongguo Mansion.

When Li Xun learned about it, he sighed and said: "When Rong Guogong is out of the funeral, let's take Lian'er to live for a while, and I will teach him for a few days. When I send him back, I will write a letter to Enhou, so that he can stay here for a while." To hire the gentleman we are looking for, one must be upright in character and have real talents. In the future, I will often bring Lian'er over, and I don't believe that our family can't teach a three or four-year-old child well."

The discussion was proper, and both Li He and Zhong's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law agreed very much.

Jia Daishan went to the funeral after 49 days and [-] days, and the coffin was stored in the Tiekan Temple. When the funeral came to an end, Mrs. Li immediately sent someone to pick up Jia Lian in the name of missing her daughter.

Rongguo Mansion is now busy moving and taking care of the family behind Jia Daishan, so they agreed to come down without caring about Jia Lian.

After receiving Lian'er, everyone in the Li family heard that Jia She still lives in the east courtyard. The east courtyard is connected to the garden. In the name of supporting the children, the family moved from the Kuayuan into the main courtyard of Rongxi Hall, while Jia Mu moved out of Rongxi Hall and moved into the large courtyard west of Rongxi Hall.

Li He sneered, and said: "If Shi Taijun still lived in Rongxi Hall, it would be justifiable for Master Jia to live in it, but now Shi Taijun has moved out and let Master Jia live in, what is that?"

The world loves Yao'er so much, it's not that there are rich families who act like this, and it's not a mess of the seniority, because almost all the old ladies live in the main courtyard, and Yao'er lives with them. It's not said that the old lady moved out of the main courtyard, Yao'er However, the principle of living in the main courtyard is that if Yao'er takes care of the elderly, it should be where the old lady lives, and Yao'er will live there to serve the old lady.

When Jia She got married, he lived in the East Courtyard. Li's family had been there many times, so the construction was naturally good. After all, the Rongguo Mansion was very prosperous at that time and had a lot of wealth. Jia amnesty, but now it's hard to say.

Li Xun shook his head and said nothing, Jia Amnesty didn't live up to his expectations, who is to blame?However, Rongguo Mansion acted like this, and Jia Lian might lose his position as the eldest son and grandson in the long run, so he had to teach him well.Lin Ruhai is the son-in-law of the Rongguo Mansion, and the Rongguo Mansion has no rules, so they have to tell him, so they wrote a letter, but they didn't just talk about it, but told him about the situation in the capital.

Lin Ruhai first received the funeral letter from the Rongguo Mansion. After all, the letter was sent out of the capital on the day Jia Daishan passed away, while the letter from the Li family came after Jia Daishan's funeral.

When receiving the news, Lin Ruhai and Jia Min, one outside and the other inside, were interviewing men and women from the side branch of the clan.

Lin Ruhai knew that the descendants of the direct line were not prosperous, and he was the only one. Although the men and women in the clan were offshoots, they all had five uniforms, but they were all named Lin after all, and he intended to help them study. He was not qualified to manage the Jia family, and he couldn't manage his own family. what?He wants to build an academy, invite famous teachers to teach the children of the clan, if the family is poor, not only can they be exempted from studying, but they will also subsidize one or two in normal times.

When Lin's subordinate branch heard this letter, they were overjoyed immediately, and hurriedly came to visit and inquire about the details.
