Early the next morning, Liang Peng and Xu Li took Brother Hao and Xiangyun's family to have breakfast, and went to the main courtyard to greet Shihou and his wife before heading to Ningrong Street in a carriage.

The two families lived not too far away, and the carriage soon stopped in front of Rongguo Mansion.

It seems that because of Liang Peng's title, Jia's standard for welcoming his family is quite high.

As soon as the car stopped without looking at it, the servants at the gate of Rongguo Mansion rushed up to greet him, and some people ran inside to report the news.

Sure enough, the door of Rongguo Mansion opened wide, and Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng personally took Jia Zhu and Jia Lian out of the gate to greet them.

In front of the Shijia brothers, Xu Li could occasionally meet with them and say a few words.The men of the Jia family are definitely outsiders, so of course she can't show up.

So Liang Peng got out of the car alone and greeted the men of the Jia family.Xu Li took the two children and changed the sedan chair, and went directly to the second gate.

The sedan chair stopped outside the second gate, Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang had come out to greet them in person.

Xu Li got off the sedan chair with her two children, and hurried forward to greet them.The three of them inevitably exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Xu Li took the initiative to say after saying a few words: "I'm afraid my aunt is waiting inside, so we'd better hurry in."

After Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang heard the words, they brought the younger siblings of the historian all the way to the Rongqing Hall where Jia's mother lived.

Along the way, Xu Li was filled with emotions.After all, I used to walk back and forth in this mansion with the target person, but now I really entered the Rongguo mansion by myself, which still feels a bit novel.

In a blink of an eye, I arrived at Rongqing Hall, and heard the girl pulling the curtain report: "Mrs. Ji Kanghou is here."

Xu Li suppressed the thoughts in her heart, took a few steps into the house with her two children and came to Jia Mu.There were three mothers and children, and they saluted and greeted Jia's mother.

Mother Jia quickly called a few people to get up, and then pulled Xiangyun and brother Hao to her.

Xu Li asked her a series of hello, and the old lady said: "There is nothing wrong with me here, that is, eat as much as you can, and then take these grandchildren to have fun, and the days will pass Unlike your father-in-law and mother-in-law, the two of you still have a companion at home."

This made Xu Li not understand what the old lady meant for a moment.Could it be that your father-in-law Rong died early, so you can't ask our father-in-law to follow suit?After all, he is still your elder brother's own brother.

So he hurriedly said how Master Shihou and his wife missed her so much, "I just wanted to take my aunt home so I can have a look."

After feeling with Jia Mu for a while, I recalled the past years.Xu Li began to ask the Jia family one by one if everyone was okay?From top to bottom, anyway, the serious master greeted him once.

Now Jia Zhu has won the exam, but he has not ended in Chunwei this year.Because according to his master, he is too young now, and he still has to settle for a few years.

When the next subject, Chun Wei, is finished, the second class will definitely be on the list.If he can be asked to study for another three or five years, and then go out for a trip, he will be in the top three of the first class, and it is not impossible.

Jia Zheng and his wife liked to hear these words, and felt that this gentleman was quite capable.From this point of view, my son is the number one scholar, even if he is ranked second in the exam like his uncle of the Lin family, it is not bad.

It's just that if the husband asked Jia Zhu to go out and see, the couple ignored them all.

However, the husband and wife, this time, did not urge him to end.He just told his eldest son to study hard every day.

When Xu Li heard Mrs. Wang bragging about how hard her brother Zhu was studying every day, she couldn't help thinking that poor Jia Zhu wouldn't be pushed to the ground by his parents.

Just as he was thinking about asking his husband to find a chance to invite Jia Zhu to drink again, the topic had already shifted to Yingchun, Tanchun and Jia Baoyu.

Speaking of these little ones, both Xiangyun and Brother Hao clamored to play with the second brother.

Hearing that the two children finally called the second elder brother normally, Xu Li felt a little relieved in her heart.The hard work of last night was not in vain.

But she immediately realized that she had been here for a while, but she didn't see those children.So he asked, "Why don't you see my brother and sister coming over?"

Mother Jia asked someone to call Yingchun, Tanchun and Baoyu to play with Brother Hao and Xiangyun.Then he told Xu Li that Baoyu had a wind blowing yesterday and sweated all night, so he should be better now.

As soon as I heard it, I knew it was an excuse for Jia Baoyu who was sleeping late. If the little ancestor was really uncomfortable, how could Jiamu and Mrs. Wang be so stable.

It is estimated that even Yingchun and Tanchun were not allowed to come forward because of that stone.

The three children came over soon, and a row of little bean dings greeted Xu Li neatly. They were all so cute that they almost melted her heart.

Yingchun is the biggest here, and she is only six or seven years old.Then Jia Baoyu was four or five years old, and Xichun was three or four years old.The youngest, Xichun, stayed well in Ningguo Mansion with his own mother.

Xu Li praised each of them one by one, and then gave each of them a gift that had been prepared in advance.

The children gathered together to play, and the rest of the adults just chatted about family gossip or something.

Just a few people talking, Xu Li found that it seemed that Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang had a particularly warm attitude towards her.

This made her heart vigilant.

Just because of Jia Mu's temperament of relying on the old and selling the old, even though she is now a Mrs. Hou, her natal niece and daughter-in-law.The old lady of the Jia family shouldn't be so polite to herself.

What's more, there is that Mrs. Wang, according to her nature, probably because her original Xu family background is not as high as her Wang family, she should look down on herself a little bit in her heart.

How come they are more enthusiastic than each other now? This attitude is too strange.

When she repeatedly heard from the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law that they put the names of Jia Baoyu and Shi Xiangyun together, Xu Li finally felt that she had found the truth.

It's right to think about it, now Shi Xiangyun is not the poor little boy who lost his parents in his infancy.

Not only is she the phoenix in Dragon and Phoenix Chengxiang, but she also has both parents.My father also became Ji Kanghou by his own ability, and my mother was Mrs. Hou.

Not only has my father made great achievements in the officialdom, but his ability to make money is no weaker than others.The couple owed more than 40 silver to the historian.It is also possible to save a fortune for the two children after paying off the owed money.

And I am afraid that everyone in the Qing Dynasty knew that Shi Xiangyun's father, Ji Kanghou, loved his daughter.Didn't you see that he deliberately used the credit he made to change his daughter's position to the next level?

The status of a historian herself is not low, and her own father raised her status to a higher level.In this way, Shi Xiangyun, who is Gushan Gege, has obviously become a sought-after item in the eyes of wives and wives.

The Jia family is so enthusiastic about themselves today, probably because they want to get closer first.

Suppressing the terrible guesses in her heart, Xu Li managed to deal with the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law with a smile on her face, and then quickly changed the topic to Jia Zhu and Yuan Chun's marriage.

"I think Lian'er's marriage has been decided. I don't know what plans Zhu Geer and Yuan Jie have in the future?"

The corners of Mrs. Wang's mouth couldn't help but twitch when mentioning Jia Zhu, who was the number one scholar, and Yuan Chun, who was a great fortune.

She just heard her say: "Brother Zhu is still waiting to join the next subject, Chunwei. The old lady and our master both want him to study at ease first. As for getting married, there is no rush."

He didn't mention his plans for Yuan Chun, so he still wanted to send her to the palace?Xu Li was thinking in her heart, but she said deliberately: "Brother Zhu is sixteen or seventeen this year, but he is not too young. If there is a suitable girl, it is better to make a decision first. When the time comes, the gold list will be named. It would be nice to have another double happiness."

Then she said to Mother Jia very sincerely: "Aunt must listen to me. People like us don't have to ask for height. As long as the girl's appearance and character are worthy, that's what matters."

Mrs. Wang obviously didn't like to hear these words, and she almost couldn't maintain the smile on her face.

Xu Li also knew that of course it was because of Jia Lian's appointment to Jiuye's house that she had made up her mind to find a noble girl for Jia Zhu.

It's just that she didn't think about it, now Jia Zheng is a fifth-rank official.No matter how promising Jia Zhu is, he doesn't have a title to inherit.So a young candidate is really nothing in the eyes of those nobles.

I didn't see that Master Jiu would rather choose the relatively unpromising Jia Lian as his son-in-law, and he didn't even think about Jia Zhu.

Then Xu Li asked Mother Jia and Mrs. Xing, "I don't know if the family life of Lian'er and Master Jiu has been settled."

According to her own observations, it seemed that even Jia's mother didn't want to bring up this topic.

Her old man probably felt that if Dafang really married Jiuye, the situation of Rongguo Mansion might not be what it is today.

If the second child's family wants to continue living in Jinrongxi Hall, it may not be so easy.

It's just that she doesn't think about it, it's against the law of etiquette to have such disorder in their family.It is estimated that this is the speech officials outside. Seeing that the men of their family are all at home, they have no skills, and they don't bother to join them.

But if the ninth master really became Jia Lian's father-in-law, then he would be the master of his son-in-law, and it would not be a matter of a word.Any charge of usurpation is enough for the second master.

This time it was Mrs. Xing who spoke, although she was worried that her noble daughter-in-law would not be able to persuade her.But if she can really ask her daughter-in-law to help suppress the second wife, then it doesn't matter if she doesn't have much prestige in front of her daughter-in-law.

Because she is very self-aware, knowing that she is an embarrassing person in this mansion.Or the weak eldest wife of the weaker big house.

If the daughter-in-law can make the first room stronger than the second room, then her situation will be better than what it is now.After all, no matter how noble the daughter-in-law is, she doesn't dare to treat her blatantly, this mother-in-law is not.
