The Red Mansion's Late Welcome Spring

After thinking about it for two or three days, Jia's mother called Jia She's brother and sister-in-law to her. She slowly twisted the rosary, stared at Jia She for a long time, and then a sentence flashed through the hearts of everyone in the room like lightning. .

"If you are willing to submit an order and give up the title to your second brother, I will agree to split the family." Jia Mu's words were like sharp knives, and suddenly entered the ears of Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng.

"Old lady, how is this possible? My master didn't make any mistakes, so why should he give the title to the second master?" Mrs. Xing asked indignantly with a look of astonishment.

"The concubine Xiande is the daughter of the second child! The empress has had a difficult time in the palace. As the parents of the empress, your second brother and his wife, of course, can't just be a fifth-rank official to embarrass the empress. This title is even more important than an official position." For the sake of decency, I think this is very good, and besides, you can’t afford the heavy responsibility of being the mistress of the Duke’s Mansion, so it’s better to ask the second daughter-in-law to do it.” Jia Mu glanced at Mrs. Xing and said ironically with disdain.

"Old lady, my son may not need that title, so you don't have to embarrass elder brother." Jia Zheng was actually very excited, that is a title!Maybe he was only a third-class Wei Lie general when it really happened to him, but he was still a third-rank official. He only had a favored official position at the beginning, and he might not be able to reach the third-rank official position in his whole life. How could he not expect it in his heart?

"The old lady has already made a decision? You know, in this way, the silver taels that my son can take out may not even be a hundred thousand. Does the old lady think it's okay?" Jia Amnesty was not surprised by Jiamu's attitude at all. It's just that he won't let their room suffer because of it.

"If you don't have it, then you don't have it. When the time comes, I will ask you to come up with 10 taels. I think it's about the same." Jia Mu waved her hand indifferently and replied.

"Old lady, how can this be possible? Didn't Miss Feng say that day that our father-in-law doesn't have much money, so how can it be enough to let their big family spend 10 yuan!?" Mrs. Wang refused, and she wanted rights. If Jia She wanted money, if Jia She only paid 30 taels for a room, it meant that the remaining [-] taels would be eaten by them. How could she be willing?

"Did I ask you? Please be quiet." Jia's mother knocked on the floor with her cane in dissatisfaction, and reprimanded Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Xing looked at Jia Amnesty worriedly, and then at Jia Mu, but she saw that Jia Amnesty frowned indistinctly, as if she didn't want her to talk too much, so she could only express herself in a hurry.

"Since this is the case, my son will prepare a playbook when he turns around, begging the emperor to change the title to the second brother, but considering the trouble of moving, he must stay in the original place. I hope that the second brother will be different." Jia Shexie After looking at the crowd, he cupped his hands and said to Jiamu.

"If you want to live, you can live there. There is no shortage of that place on the left or right. Now that this matter has been settled, I just wait for the emperor's decree to come down, and then invite the elders of the clan to preside over the division of the family." Jiamu said. Close your eyes and rest your mind, ignore Jia She and the others.

Jia Amnesty looked at Jia's mother's hypocrisy, and inadvertently saw Jia Zheng's forbearing joy from the corner of his eyes, and a trace of sarcasm flashed in his eyes, and then he said goodbye coldly, regardless of whether Jia's mother had anything to say, turned around and asked Holding Mrs. Xing's sleeve, the two left together.

As soon as Mrs. Wang saw Jia She and his wife leave, she couldn't wait to say: "Old lady, the master's house should share the 40 silver with us equally. How can we only pay that little money? And I heard what Brother Zhen said two days ago. Those who sell wood and stone in Beijing and outside Beijing are raising the price higher and higher, and I am afraid that 50 taels will not be enough in the end."

"What do you know?! If you don't have the title, you won't be able to share much of your property. In the future, everything in the public and my hands will be left to you in the end? Don't you think it's not enough?!" Jia When my mother saw Mrs. Wang's stupid look that only saw money in her eyes, she couldn't help being disgusted in her heart.

Mother Jia still had another unspecified thought. She was thinking that if Jia Zheng had the title, Jia Baoyu, his son, would be the natural heir in the future. When Lin Ruhai marries a daughter, the dowry will definitely not be less than when Jia Min married back then, so if this matter comes to fruition, the benefits to Jia Zheng's family are too numerous to enumerate. The madam only looks at the things in front of her if she doesn't see them.

But Jia Mu is used to domineering in the mansion, and she never thought that it would not be an easy task to be a noble. Even if Jia Amnesty is willing, whether the emperor is willing or not is still a matter of opinion.

It's just that the emperor is enjoying watching the play now, when he first saw Jia Amnesty's offer, he raised his eyebrows silently, and kept the copy by the table for several days, and only after he had figured out the ins and outs did he begin to think about what to do. Don't agree to the issue of changing Jia Amnesty's title to Jia Zheng....

It is also said that after Mrs. Xing returned to Jia She's yard with Jia She, she couldn't help crying aggrievedly, and said while crying: "The old lady's heart is too cruel, she drove our family to the corner here It’s fine to live in the place where you live, but now even our family’s only thing we have is taken away, what should we do in the future ~ and the marriage of Ying girl is not settled now, you have no title, what can she say in the future Such a good relationship, she will definitely blame us in her heart."

"Enough! Do you think I want to?! I'll go to the study to rest, so don't bother me if you have nothing to do." Jia Amnesty glared at Mrs. Xing angrily, then turned and went to the outer study.

"Me! Hey! How can I be okay? I haven't said what Mrs. Linchuan said that day, alas! What should I do? It's a good kiss and I just blow it up, my poor Ying girl What~~." Mrs. Xing thought to herself that once Jia She lost her title and no job, wouldn't she be for nothing?In this way, how can Jia Yingchun be worthy of the son and brother of the Hou's mansion?Of course, this matter is impossible to say.

Mrs. Xing was troubled for a long time, but she felt that it was better to tell her daughter. After all, it was related to her lifelong affairs, and she also had the right to know. After a change of mind, she hurriedly pulled up her skirt and walked to Feixue Pavilion go.

Before Mrs. Xing came to Jia Yingchun's yard, Jia Yingchun was tasting the hot cake that Siqi had just brought back from the street. The freshly fried hot cake had to be eaten while it was hot, otherwise it would not have the taste. The hot cake that Siqi bought The portion is sufficient, after Jia Yingchun ate two bites, she shared half of it with the little girls in the yard, and got a few pieces to put on small plates, and was going to send the embroidered tangerines to Mrs. Xing and Jia She for a taste. When it was time, Mrs. Xing came in.

"Didn't my wife go to the old lady's place? When did you come back? The hot cake bought by Siqi, my wife will also try it." Jia Yingchun smiled and helped Mrs. Xing to sit down at the table, and pushed a small plate to the table. in front of her.

"Hey! How can I still eat? You don't know that something big is going to happen to our family this time." Mrs. Xing sighed sleepily, with a serious expression on her face.

"What's the matter? Didn't the master say last time that unless the old lady agreed to split the family, he wouldn't give out half of the money?... Could it be that the old lady used something to coerce you and the master to take out the money, didn't she?" Jia Yingchun raised her eyebrows. Tail jumped, and asked worriedly.

"It's almost like this. The old lady said that as long as the master is willing to give the title to your second uncle, she will agree to split the family, and we don't need to pay too much money, but the title...you can let it go if you can." What?" Mrs. Xing couldn't help her nose sore when she said this.

"My wife is too intimidating. I thought something big happened. It's just a vacant seat. If the second master wants it, just give it to him. But what does the master mean?" Jia Yingchun let out a sigh of relief when she heard the words , said to Mrs. Xing with a smile.

"My lord...agreed, and said that I will give the emperor a discount on the next day, but what do you say? How can the lord give in so easily? This title is passed down from his ancestors, so he is fine, just playing around like this. "Mrs. Xing said uncomfortably.

"The master must have his reasons for doing this. Madam, don't worry, but what about the future? Will we still live here? The second brother and the second sister-in-law have to come back too? Is it possible that they still have to take care of their house? This is not like the old saying yes Taking care of you, a mother-in-law, should be returned to the second wife, otherwise they will laugh at us for being greedy." Jia Yingchun rolled her eyes and asked again.

"Hey! How could I expect so much? I'll talk to the master later. I still have to wait for the imperial decree to come down. There is another matter that I need to tell you." Mrs. Xing complained for a long time, but in the end Did not forget the most important thing.

"Huh? Ma'am, let's talk. We mother and daughter have nothing to say." Jia Yingchun said with a smile without thinking too much.

So Mrs. Xing told Jia Yingchun that Mrs. Linchuan uncle left her that day and planned to propose to Jia Yingchun for the second master of the Xiao family.

After Jia Yingchun heard about it, she didn't speak for a long time. She looked up at Nanny Zhou and the others, and there was a gleam of understanding in their eyes.

"Ying girl, you should say something! You shouldn't blame the master, right? In fact, I haven't had time to mention this matter to the master. It's all my fault. I have been worrying about building the garden these two days, but I have focused on important things. I forgot." Seeing that Jia Yingchun didn't speak, Mrs. Xing thought she was sad because of this incident, so she hurriedly explained.

"My wife forgot this matter very rightly, because even if my wife is willing, I am not willing." Jia Yingchun smiled lightly and comforted Mrs. Xing.

"Ah?! You don't want to? But I have met that child once, and I think he is pretty good. Not only is he handsome, but he also has some skills. I heard that he has just been promoted to the governor of the town, and he is a fifth-rank official... But now I say These are just words, if the emperor really agrees to the master's request, the master will be white in the future, and Brother Lian's official position is not high, who else can you find?" Mrs. Xing was surprised at first, and then she was a little discouraged. .

"I don't think everyone in their family likes me. I didn't say anything before, and there was already someone behind me. If it really happens, I don't know how the other party will destroy it, so forget it! There is no fate between our two families." Jia Yingchun smiled a little forcedly, but she still hasn't forgotten what happened a few days ago.

"What's causing trouble? Girl Ying, are you hiding something from me? Someone bullied you, right?" Mrs. Xing asked anxiously as she grasped the key point of Jia Yingchun's words keenly.

"It's nothing, it's all over anyway, my wife doesn't have to worry about it." Jia Yingchun smiled more and more calmly.

"But..." Mrs. Xing knew that as long as Jia Yingchun didn't want to talk, it was useless for her to ask, but knowing that her daughter was being bullied, how could she calm down?

"Madam, please eat the hot cake, it won't taste good if it gets colder." Jia Yingchun moved the small plate again, trying to break Madam Xing's mind.

Jia Yingchun's master and servant heard Mrs. Xing's words today, and knew that Nanny Zhou's conjecture was correct, but Jia Yingchun didn't know how Mrs. Linchuan would like her?Since the second master of the Xiao family is excellent, it shouldn't be difficult to find a lady from a famous family with better conditions than her, right?
