Lin Ruhai and Guo Fuxian were students of the same family, but they didn't recognize each other. The cause was of course Lin Gong's illness. He served soup and medicine, and dared not leave the front of the bed. Fu Ling returned to his hometown, which caused him to have nothing to do with most of the same subjects that year. On the contrary, he had a lot of contacts with the same subjects in the previous provincial examinations and the later palace examinations.

In his previous life, Lin Ruhai did not go to Beijing with Jia Min at this time. He went to rush for the exam first. He originally planned to pick up Jia Min when he was settled, but he missed the wedding due to illness and returned to Gusu immediately. He would not enter Beijing three years later, so he never listened to Shen. Xue mentioned the matter of Guo Fuxian.

What happened to Guo Fuxian was only known to Lin Ruhai after he became Prime Minister, and his previous experience was widely known.

I remember that in the previous life, Guo Fuxian did not get back on his own. The Shen family helped him find a job vacancy. It was neither high nor low, and it was also a sixth rank. It was a general judge. In Shandong, it was several times stronger than in Yunnan where Shen Xue went.He is dedicated to serving the people, he is really talented, and his official reputation is very good. Unfortunately, he is no match for those who have backers. He has been suppressed many times and failed to be promoted twice. It was Shen Xue who was later promoted to the governor of Shandong Province. Five ranks, but soon offended the dignitaries who went on a pilgrimage to Shandong and was dismissed from office.

That was the decree from the capital, and even Shen Xue was helpless.

When Lin Ruhai sought to recover Jia Yucun, Guo Fuxian also recovered. Several years later, his meritorious deeds were recorded on the son of a family. Became a teacher.He is from Chang'an, so he can only go back to Beijing, but the dignitaries he offended were also in Chang'an, and they suppressed their family time and time again, causing his father to die from his tenure, and his family was in decline. Became a counselor beside the Ninth Prince.

The dignitary Lin Ruhai whom Guo Fuxian offended was very familiar with. Although Lin Ruhai had no contact with him, the Rongguo Mansion was very close to him. He was Niu Jizong, the grandson of Zhenguo Gong Niuqing.Niu Jizong and Jia She are about the same age, before he went to Shandong for pilgrimage, he inherited the title of his ancestors, he inherited the title of first-class uncle, but now he is nothing but white clothes, and he will donate an official position at the beginning of next year.

Thinking about this, Lin Ruhai opened his mouth and said to Shen Xue: "Cousin, don't worry, it's just a trivial matter. It just so happens that when we enter Beijing, we will see you everywhere, so just mention a few words at that time."

When Lin Ruhai spoke, he hesitated in his heart, wondering if his help would change Guo Fuxian's fate.

Forget it, it's not that he doesn't know the truth of man's victory over heaven. He never believes in fate. As far as he knows, Guo Fuxian does have the talent of a counselor, and he will definitely not be buried. If he really changes his fortune, he will be recommended to Jiu The prince is right in front of him.

Lin Ruhai didn't think of winning over the Ninth Prince first, nor would he plunder the fortune of others.

Shen Xue showed a smile, and said: "You just remember not to forget, Fuxian also said to rely on yourself first."

Lin Ruhai shook his head and said: "There are only so many civil and military positions. Although there are vacancies every year, they are all official positions of the first, second and third ranks. They are not easily handed over to incompetent people. The lower ranks of officials are always full. The land is occupied by people, there are so many people who flatter the four kings and eight lords, brother Fuxian alone may be powerless."

Shen Xue sighed softly, how could he not know that the Shen family is not easy, let alone the Guo family.

The Shen family occupied a place among the dignitaries decades ago, and most of their family acquaintances were high-ranking and powerful, but now the Shen family is defeated, and most of those acquaintances have no successors, which is even more declining than the Shen family. Planning one or two for Guo Yuan is not as cheap as Lin Ruhai's. The Lin family has declined because of Mr. Lin's death, but Rongguo Mansion is booming, and there are many old families. Face, will never neglect him.

Shen Xue has been in the capital for decades, and although she has experienced the world, she doesn't know people's hearts are unpredictable, and she doesn't know that since Jia Daishan's death, except for Jia's mother who loves Jia Min as always, Rongguo Mansion and Lin's family have not been very close.

Shen Yuan could see something, but he was over sixty years old, his health was not good, and he didn't know how many years he could live. Instead of helping Lin Ruhai and making him rely on him, it would be better to let him practice on his own. The nephew's ability will definitely become famous, he has already seen that Lin Ruhai is not a treasure, and the spirits of his sister-in-law and sister-in-law can rest in peace in heaven.

The next day, Lin Ruhai and his wife went to visit Rongguo Mansion, and they were already welcomed into the hall.

Seeing the solemnity of the Rongguo Mansion, Lin Ruhai's heart was not touched at all, and he couldn't help but think of the desolation when his daughter came to Beijing. At that time, the Rongguo Mansion was busy with the joy of being a concubine in Yuanchun. .

Among the people in the Rongguo Mansion, Jia Amnesty didn't care, but Jia Zheng was the most happy. He was fond of reading poetry and books since he was a child, and he was deeply loved by his grandfather. , couldn't help showing a very smile, personally welcomed him in, led him to Jiamu's courtyard, and said: "After receiving the post, the old lady has been talking about it for a long time."

Jia Min had already entered Jia's mother's courtyard through the Chuihua Gate in a sedan chair. When the mother and daughter met each other, there was a lot of sadness and joy.

Hearing that Lin Ruhai was coming, Mother Jia hurried to invite her.

Now Jia's Yuanchun is young and healthy, and Jia She has lost his wife. Apart from Jia's mother, there is only one female family member, Mrs. Wang. It's open, and I'm going to arrange today's banquet.

When Lin Ruhai came in, Mother Jia raised her eyes and saw that her favorite son-in-law was wearing a jade-colored robe and a silver belt today. His face was like a crown jade and his eyes were like stars. It is unforgettable to watch, and she is more stable than when she left Beijing. After seeing it, Jia's mother first became happy in her heart.

After meeting, Jia's mother said: "Please get up quickly. Mandarin ducks, let's watch tea." She also asked Lin Ruhai to take a seat.

Lin Ruhai thanked her and sat down. When she saw her husband, Jia Min smiled a little more, took Jia Mu's hand, and said, "It's time to come to say hello to my mother. The master thought he would come the first day." Yes, I was entrusted by someone, so I have to go to my uncle's house first, and then I can see my mother after discussing important matters, and please forgive me."

Hearing Jia Min's words, Lin Ruhai smiled slightly, although he knew she was lying, he was very upset in his heart.

Mother Jia heard that Lin Ruhai and Jia Min had gone to Shen's house first, and she felt a little displeased. Now that she heard what Jia Min meant, it seemed that they didn't mean it. The resentment from yesterday was wiped away immediately, and she said with a smile: "What does our family say that you can't forgive me?" Forgive me? There is no birthright. The Shen family is the uncle of the son-in-law, so what's the point of going there first? Besides, you are entrusted by others."

Jia Min knew that her natal family was doing something wrong, and she was born with eyes high above her head, fearing that her mother and brother would scold her husband, so she said this, and when she heard that Jia's mother didn't care, she was overjoyed and said with a smile: "It's so easy to go back to Beijing, and I will be able to do it often in the future." Come and say hello to mother."

When Jia Mu heard this, she was even more delighted.

When Jia Zhu was young, Jia Zhu brought Jia Lian and Yuan Chun to visit his uncle and uncle. Both Lin Ruhai and Jia Min praised him endlessly and gave generous gifts.

Yuanchun got four gold collars, four purses, and four strings of fragrant beads. Because it was the first time I saw them, I got four more gifts and four gold locks.Each of Jia Zhu and Jia Lian has a set of wolf hair, a box of fragrant ink, a hundred knives of rice paper, a pair of precious inkstones and two new books, a pair of gold collars, a pair of silver collars, a pair of Ruyi pen ingots, and gold coins. The first gold pair, only Jia Lian has one more jade article and one pouch than Jia Zhu.

Seeing this, the others were not as good, so Jia Amnesty first became happy, secretly praised his sister and son-in-law for their understanding of etiquette, knowing that Jia Lian is the eldest son and grandson of the family, and then regretted that he ignored what his sister said in the letter.

Jia Zheng ignored such mundane affairs, and he didn't care. After chatting, he felt more and more congenial with Lin Ruhai, so he invited him to sit in the Rongxi Hall, and invited Jia She to accompany him, and asked Jia Zhu to follow.

Jia Amnesty pondered for a moment, then sneered, and called Jia Lian to go with him.

Jia Lian has been taught by his grandfather for two years, and he is no longer Amon under Wu. He is sweet-talking and good-natured, no better than Jia Zhu. Under the strict Jia government, he only knows how to read and ignores everything. Mother Jia was the number one celebrity in front of her. Mother Jia couldn't bear it. She hurriedly said: "You adults are talking, what do you ask the children to do? Tell them to stay and talk to Auntie."

After hearing this, Jia Zheng and Jia Amnesty had to obey.

But before his elder brother and husband left, Jia Min beckoned Jia Zhu and Jia Lian to come forward, held one in each hand, looked around, praised her once, and said with a smile to Jia's mother: "They are all good, very clever. Ming I live in the capital all the time, so we meet a lot, our aunts and nephews have everything to talk about, my mother let them go to the study with my brothers, at least they can learn something."

Mother Jia thought of Lin Ruhai's talent, and when she heard this, she readily agreed.

After they had all gone, Jia Minfang got up and left his seat, and sat beside Jia Mu, seeing that Jia Mu's temples were like frost, her eyebrows were like snow, and she had to work for her elder brother at such a young age, while she had been away from Jiangnan for several years, she couldn't help but feel very comfortable. responsibility.

However, Mother Jia took her daughter's hand. When she met Lin Ruhai earlier, the mother and daughter had never talked to each other, but now she looked at her carefully, and saw that she hadn't put on any makeup and no pearls or emeralds on her hair, only a few pieces of silver. Qi, wearing a white mink fur jacket, a jade-colored squirrel jacket, and a white silk skirt.With such a simple dress, her bare face is like a flower, her eyes are as clear as water, and her beauty is dazzling between glances.

Jia Mu frowned and said, "You young people, don't dress too plainly, it's taboo. I asked someone to give you a red satin cloak, why don't you wear it?"

Jia Min hurriedly said: "Yesterday I wore the cloak my mother gave me when I went out. I usually like bright colors, but now that my father is gone, I didn't come back to attend the funeral. My brothers have not yet been filial. Dressed up at the door?" Speaking of Jia Daishan, tears fell.

Mother Jia became sad before she knew it, and the people below rushed forward to persuade her for half a day.

Seeing Yuan Chun's tired face, Mother Jia ordered people to carry her down to resettle her. She took Jia Min's hand and whispered, "When your father was around, he loved you the most. You'll be fine, but you haven't seen your grandson yet, and you still remember it in your heart. It's been a few months since your filial piety? No news yet?"

Jia Min blushed, lowered her head and rubbed the corner of her clothes, and shook her head for a long time.

Mother Jia said anxiously: "What's the matter? Can you ask the doctor to see it? It's good to take care of it. It's important to conceive as soon as possible. The son-in-law's family has been passed down for several generations. I also heard that the son-in-law loves you and dismisses all the girls, but only you have it." Only with my brother can I have confidence."

Jia Min sighed slightly, and said, "It's no use haste when it's predestined."

Mother Jia thought for a while, and said: "There are a few excellent imperial physicians in the imperial hospital who are good at this. Tomorrow, I will invite you from my post to diagnose your pulse. Only when you know what is wrong can you prescribe the right medicine."

Jia Min hurriedly said: "Mother, don't worry so much. The master doesn't tell you to take medicine. He said that the medicine is three-point poisonous. I'm afraid that if you don't get sick, you will get sick instead. When I was in Jiangnan, I had already invited a very skilled doctor to take care of me. Healthy, nothing wrong."

Jia Mu said: "There is nothing wrong with you, and you are still young. How can there be no news?"

Jia Min laughed and said, "Master said, our old lady didn't get him until she was 30 years old. I'm only 24 years old this year, so don't worry. Maybe it's easier to relax."

After hearing what Lin Ruhai said, Mother Jia felt relieved, and sighed: "My aunt loves you, so I am comforted in my heart, but I can rest assured only when I have my grandson in my arms. It's okay for you to be young now, and you will grow old every year. Isn't it all your fault that you don't have children yet? That's why I worry about it."

Jia Min's eyes turned red, and he said, "Mother Lao is so worried about my daughter being unfilial."

Jia's mother said angrily, "I'm your mother. I'm not worried about you. I'm also worried about other people's failures? You are blessed. Both your parents-in-law are charitable and kind people, and your son-in-law is capable. I'm just waiting for high school next year, and I will earn you a fortune in the future." Order."

Just as Jia Min was about to speak, he suddenly heard a voice: "Madam is here."

The author has something to say:

I just found out that I forgot Jia Min and Lin Ruhai's filial piety to keep Jia Daishan. Is it really the consequence of not eating?My mind is in chaos, so I am going to revise it right away. Jia Min's married daughter has to keep filial piety for her parents for one year, and her son-in-law has been masturbating for three months. The youngest one is really patriarchal?
