The Rebirth of the Red Chamber as Lian

It's the first time we've met so mercilessly.

"Uncle, what you said is wrong. You have behaved badly. How can you keep people from talking about it? Even if you don't let us say it, how can uncle stop everyone's mouths? I Daqing rule the world with filial piety, no matter who he is If you are not filial, you will be condemned and cast aside by the people of the world. Don’t you fear that the imperial censor will join you when you bully the old lady like this today?”

Jia Zhu's complexion was no longer pale at this time, her face was flushed with anger, and she raised her head and talked with her neck stuck, with an air of righteousness and arrogance.He is a scholar, he has a kind of nobleness in his bones, and he is more influenced by Shi Taijun and Mrs. Wang, so he has long looked down on this ignorant uncle.Today's words vented out the usual resentment.

"Brother Zhu's words are wrong. I don't know if it's a kind of filial piety for a nephew to talk to his uncle like this. You didn't even ask why when you came here. How do you know that this girl didn't make a mistake by herself?" He was beaten? Poor father is obviously filial to the old lady, how could it become unfilial when you talk about it?"

Jia Lian came out from behind Jia She, looked down at Jia Zhu condescendingly, and then scanned the surrounding people, "Father has always been just and strict, there is a reason for punishing this girl, and he will not trample others for no reason. Old lady, you just now Did you tell her to pack her things? You don’t want to know why she’s here, don’t tell me all the old lady’s things are placed outside this hanging flower door?”

I do not want to know!When Shi Taijun heard the words, how could she not know why Skylark was here? That was her hint.But this can't be said clearly, could it be said that she was afraid that she would not be able to get off the stage, so she asked Yunque to collect things explicitly, but secretly asked her to come over and ask Jia She to go back.In this way, where is she going to put her face as the old matriarch of the Rongguo Mansion? !

"This girl has also served the old lady for many years. She didn't learn how to be good, but she learned how to be obedient and disobedient. She dared not to take the old lady's orders seriously, and ran to the front instead of doing good errands. Lai Hun said. Shouldn’t such a bold and presumptuous slave be beaten? Can’t he be punished?”

He smiled and made a gesture to Rajazhu, but he didn't use much force, "Brother Pig, it is precisely because he is someone who is needed by the old lady that he can't be tolerated. We are relieved of them, so we handed over the most honorable old lady." Serving her, how could she allow her to be so negligent. Now I only beat her a few boards and change some money and food, which is already an extra favor for the old lady. Big brother pig, do you think I am right?"

Jia Zhu was stupefied in reading, but now he was speechless.He clearly knew that it shouldn't be like this, and he clearly knew that the one who was wrong was Uncle Jia Amnesty, so why did Jia Lian claim credit for it?I could understand it in my heart, but I couldn't find anything to refute him, so I blushed even more anxiously.

Yuan Chun next to him was a clever one, shaking his head and said: "Lian'er, that's not the case. Although Yunque is a little self-assertive, she is sincere for the old lady. I think she just sneaked in when she saw the old lady was sad. Persuading uncle. Loyalty is the Lord, what is wrong with this? Even if it is wrong, it is her loyalty to the Lord, so I should forgive you a little bit."

"Besides, she is the old lady's maid after all. It's not impossible for the uncle to punish her, but he should also report to the old lady. This place is not far from the upper room. How much trouble would it take to send a girl to go there?" It's better than being punished directly, without explaining the reason, but it made the old lady anxious again." If she is not allowed to talk to the elders, she can always talk to the peers, right? !

"Tell me, this matter shouldn't have disturbed the old lady. Father is the master of the house, a first-class general appointed by the court, and a maid who made a mistake in the family can cause so many complaints, hehe..." Jia Lian She curled her lips ironically, turned her head to one side, and stopped talking.His principle is: say what you can say, and treat you as a fart if you can't.

Chapter [-]: Shi Taijun Manipulates the Communication Source, Two Fathers and Sons Bargain and Bargain

A farce ended with Jia Amnesty, Jia Lian and his son leaving indignantly.Outside the hanging flower door, there were people who were stunned or angry.It was just a servant girl who was fined. Although the matter was not serious, it left traces in the hearts of the servants of the Rongguo Mansion—the Elder Master used to be so powerful at times.That's Skylark, the old lady's most capable confidant, so if you say it, you'll hit it.

In the upper room of Rongqing Hall, Shi Taijun sat there with his eyes half closed with a gloomy face, and after a long while he gave instructions: "Zheng'er, take the post and invite Wang Taiyi, saying that I've been out of breath twice today, please invite him quickly." Help." Doctor Wang is an old acquaintance of the Rongguo Mansion, and when the old Duke was still alive, he was often invited to treat people in the mansion.

Jia Zheng took the order respectfully and went, but there was still some confusion on his face.It's not his fault, the father and son of Dafang are too abnormal these days, which makes him a little dizzy and unable to find the north.

In the old days, his eldest brother Jia She didn't care about anything, as long as he didn't lack money to spend, he would be fine if he was squeezed out of the main hall; his nephew Jia Lian was an ignorant naughty boy, not very close to his parents, but closer to him and the Wang family , also likes to cling to Yuanchun, and also admires Zhuer quite a lot.But since Jia Lian recovered from his illness last time, both father and son's temperament changed drastically, and they became full of fighting spirit.

In fact, it wasn't just Jia Zheng who was confused and confused, but also these few people in Rongqingtang.Jia Zhu has been studying hard and rarely stays in the inner house, so she is just surprised, but the three old, middle-aged and young women who have ghosts in their hearts think deeply.Especially Mrs. Wang, she has been silent since she heard Jia Amnesty mention the Zhou family. She thinks more deeply.

Back then, although she did not do the death of Jia Hu and Zhou's personally, she also contributed to the flames.Coupled with the fact that Jia Lian fell into the ice pool years ago, Mrs. Wang's heart tightened.Could it be that she was reckless, and let Da Fang and his son see something?Otherwise, why hasn't Zhou's family been mentioned for many years, but why is it brought up at this time, and Jia Lian is sent to live there permanently.

The more she thought about it, the more frightened Mrs. Wang became.She couldn't help but go through the things she had done in these years carefully, wondering if there was something missing.She was so engrossed in her thoughts that she didn't hear Shi Taijun's call. It was Yuan Chun who nudged her aside before she realized, "Old lady, if you need anything, please just tell me."

"Tomorrow is the third day of junior high school. Chigou Day. It is not suitable to visit relatives and friends. You order people to guard this mansion. No one is allowed to go out; but all guests who come will return. Our house will close the door to thank them. After two days If there are any more guests coming, I'm not feeling well, so don't lure them to me, and entertain them at your side." Shi Taijun gave her a dark look, but didn't say anything, only ordered.

It seems that this old thing is going to make things big.Asking the master to invite an acquainted imperial physician is to confirm that she is suffering from the big house's madness; and to see no guests during the Chinese New Year is to make her publicize the big house's unfilial piety.He knew clearly that the Zhou family would come to pick up Jia Lian tomorrow, but he didn't allow anyone to go out, and he didn't allow guests to enter.

It's a pity that the old man doesn't even think about it, the big house's yard is not closed, can she, as a younger brother and sister, manage the gate of the uncle's yard.Or, the old man knew about it at all, but still forced her to come out and offend the two of Da Fang.The abacus is really good, no wonder people say it is a cunning and cunning.Although she was dissatisfied, Mrs. Wang still agreed with a dull face.

"And Zhu'er, you've already entered school, so you should walk around more outside. This year coincides with the year of the Grand Competition, and there are many scholars gathered in Beijing. You will be an official in the future, go get acquainted with them I want to show off your talent and learning." Before this was over, Shi Taijun took Jia Zhu's hand and gave instructions, not worried at all that her grandson would not show timidity because he was only a showman.

Jia Zhu was not very willing about this. He was uncomfortable with his defeat in the autumn last year, and now he was going to meet those candidates, and he felt like a dwarf.Besides, he has already decided to study hard in order to be on the list in the next subject, and he really doesn't want to waste time on socializing with others.But since the old lady gave such orders, he could only reluctantly obey.

"Girl Yuan is going to be drafted next year, and it will be a few days before she can relax. Taking advantage of this year, you should go out and walk around more. You have to make arrangements for the second child, and take her with you when you go out. In addition, most of you are Yuan Girl, prepare some clothes and jewelry, don’t be afraid to spend money, just go out from the business, so as not to be laughed at by our Rongguo Mansion." Shi Taijun assigned errands without any omission.

"Yes, I know that the old lady loves her granddaughter the most." Yuan Chun was happier, he was able to get good things, and he was able to go out for a walk, which was a good job for a boudoir.Of course, she knew in her heart that the old lady's real intention was to let her pretend to unintentionally ruin the reputation of the uncle and the others.It would be best if the uncle could be removed from the title and let her father inherit the title!

After one by one the names were called, Shi Taijun called the maids and women to come in to serve her, and she herself half-lyed in Yuan Chun's arms and moaned.With her fat body, one was as big as Yuan Chun's and two were more. Madam Wang couldn't bear her daughter's hard work, so she repeatedly ordered people to carry her into the house and put her on the bed to lie down.

"Father, the Rongqing hall is probably busy right now, are we not here?" Jia Lian sat on the kang opposite Jia Amnesty, playing with a jade piece in his hand, and asked casually.You don't even need to send someone to investigate, how could Shi Taijun calm down after suffering such disobedience today.At this moment, I'm afraid the imperial physician has come to the door, right?

Jia Amnesty also had something else in his hand, an ancient fan.He squinted at his son and snorted, "It's okay. You don't have to worry about my recklessness, and I lost the title on my head. I was able to inherit the title back then, not because I was filial to my parents, but because I had a good family. As long as Father-in-law and mother-in-law are well, this title is not the turn of the prudish second child."

"Oh? What's hidden in this?" Jia Lian asked curiously.From the lines in Daddy's words, it is not difficult to hear that he is quite dissatisfied with his parents.He has seen Shi Taijun's partiality before, but he has no chance to see how Jia Daishan treats his two sons.But he also felt that Jia She was a bit resentful. If he had really lived up to his expectations, he would have earned a title and returned by himself.

However, it's okay to think about these words in his heart, he didn't intend to say it out, so as to embarrass Daddy Cheap.

"What do you think? When you were the son of Duke Rongguo of Hitachi, didn't you ever think of abolishing my unworthy eldest son when you were an old man? Hmph, if the father-in-law was not still in power at that time, the Zhou family would be more powerful than the Jia family." If you win the Sacred Heart, this title will not reach your father's head. If it is really the second son who seizes the title, your father does not have such a big face to let the old man get the official bequest."

"The old lady is just angry now, just wait for her to let it out. Anyway, I already have a reputation of being ridiculous and lustful, so it doesn't matter if I am more unfilial. Besides, there may not be many people who can believe it. I am dignified A general of the first rank, the heir of the Rongguo Mansion, for the sake of filial piety, gave up the main hall to the younger brother of a junior official of the sixth rank, how can he be filial?"

As he said that, he gloated and said with a gleeful smile: "Those in the second bedroom, I'm afraid they won't have a comfortable life this year, and they'll be pushed around by the old lady. Come on, they're all busy, and you have to leave tomorrow, so let's go." I can take a break and tidy up the yard as well." Speaking of this, he suppressed his smile again and narrowed his eyes slightly.

He doesn't have many people who can use him, except for the few children left by his grandmother and the few people left by the Zhou family to Lian'er, there are only some servants who were bought later.Jia Amnesty didn't believe any of the slaves in the family next door.What's more, these people have been slaves in Rongguo Mansion for several generations, and the intertwined relationship among them has long been beyond imagination.

Jia Amnesty made up his mind to clean up his own yard first, taking advantage of the busy time of the year and when others have no time to take care of it.The old lady and the second child often mixed sand into the yard. In the past, he didn't care about it. Anyway, it was enough to live by himself.But now it is different, he is going to overthrow the people in the west.

"You put this away, it's the lucky money for your father." Jia Amnesty took out a mahogany box from behind, and handed it to Jia Lian, "Although the Zhou family is your maternal ancestor's family, it shouldn't make people think that you are dependent on others. This There are 2000 taels of silver bills inside, counting as your living expenses for five years, you don’t need to ask me for it in the future. If you ask for it, you won’t give it.”

"Didn't you mean the New Year's money? Why did it become living expenses again?" Jia Lian rolled his eyes, bullying him for not having a childhood?Can lucky money be the same as living expenses?Even so, he held the box in his arms with satisfaction.Originally, he was worried about not having enough capital, but with the 2000 taels, everything would be settled.Cheap daddy's things, it can be regarded as sent to his heart.

"Bastard, what are you doing so clearly?" Jia She curled his lips and kicked him from under the kang table, "The bank note is for living expenses, and there are two land deeds in it, which are shop and Zhuangzi, which are considered lucky money. I don't know you I want to do something, but everything is prepared for you, whether you win or lose depends on your own ability. In a word, if you lose everything, don't come to your father again."

"Then if you make money, do you need to buy shares for you?" Jia Lian smiled, cheap father is really good, like a caring little padded jacket.

"Tch, I'm counting on your dry ass who doesn't know where it is, and you won't starve to death." Jia Amnesty waved his hands disdainfully, then saw Jia Lian's smile, and changed his words: "However, I paid for the money and paid for it." If you are a local, you can't take advantage of you kid for nothing. In this way, the father can't take advantage of you, so these are forced to take [-]% of your shares, right?"

You are really not greedy![-]%?Why don't you just let me work for you!Jia Lian shook his head like a rattle, and stretched out a solitary finger, "[-]%, and if you ask for things from the store in the future, it's my son's filial piety."

In fact, in Jia Amnesty's view, there is no such thing as dry stock, so why would he care.On the contrary, he found it interesting that his son was bargaining with him with a sullen face.The father and son flicked back and forth like guns, and finally reached an agreement to split the accounts.Jia Amnesty thought it was just a joke now, but later regretted it so much that his intestines turned green.What a loss!

Jia Lian shook her head, knowing that the cheap father was just teasing him, but why wasn't he just teasing the cheap father?Anyway, no matter who is teasing who, it is enough for two people to get along in harmony.

Seeing his son's small back leaving, Jia She let out a low sigh, and threw the bag in his hand onto the kang.Why can't he see that Lian'er has become powerful, not to mention that she no longer looks like a ignorant and naughty child, she is not like a child at all.A serious illness may enlighten people, but it will not make children grow up out of thin air, and it will not make people mature and wise.

With Jia Lian's behavior like this, he couldn't help but think about it as a father.Maybe others will guess whether this child was hiding his clumsiness before, but Jia She can guarantee that he never did.He knew exactly what his son looked like.However, Jia Amnesty didn't dare to think about it any further.Instead of wondering whether Lian'er is still Lian'er, it's better to let him be confused for a while.

And Jia Lian himself didn't have much intention to hide.As Jia Lian in his previous life, he wore a mask until his death; now that he has earned Jia Lian, he just wants to be himself once again.As for whether people will see the flaws, so what?It's normal for a ten-year-old child to change his temperament when he is still in his infancy.

The only thing he was worried about was Jia Amnesty who was the least of his worries.This cheap dad is not as out-of-the-ordinary as in the Red Mansion, I'm afraid people have already seen that something is wrong.However, since Jia Amnesty didn't mention it, he was naturally too happy to make a sound. It is a beautiful thing in life for a father to be kind and his son to be filial!

The Eighth Chapter Jia Enhou's Butler Changed Prisons and Too Much Trouble

The hour of the third day of junior high school had just passed, and someone at the door had already reported that the carriage from Zhenyuanhou's mansion had arrived.They came, but they didn't climb the main entrance of Rongguo Mansion, but directly handed the name card to the black oil gate of Jia She's courtyard.Although Mrs. Wang had passed down the order to thank guests behind closed doors last night, Jia Amnesty pretended not to know and sent someone to wait at the door early in the morning.

By the time Shi Taijun in Rongqing Hall got up and got the news, Jia Amnesty had already personally sent Jia Lian away.And left a message, because it was too early, in order not to affect the rest of the old lady, Jia Lian had kowtowed goodbye to Rongqingtang in the yard, please don't worry about it.I hated Shi Taijun so much that he wanted to piss off, and he could only attack the useless Mrs. Wang.

But Mrs. Wang is like a wooden person. You say she nods in agreement with everything, and admits her mistake with a dull face.But Shi Taijun could figure out the perfunctory in her heart even with her eyes closed.The more this happened, the more angry the old lady became. She was going to pretend to be sick, but this time she really fell ill.How much bitter juice is drunk, it will be slightly better.

In Zhenyuan Hou's mansion, Jia Xiaolian's life is not easy.The next day was not Yinshi, and the sky was not yet bright, so he was called to stand up and stand up.To say that this basic skill of martial arts is the most boring and hardest.For those who have not practiced before, it takes a long time to learn the standard posture.When the posture is fine, whether you can stand still is still a problem.

Mr. Zhou was quite satisfied with his little grandson. He only taught him once, and Jia Lian followed suit very standard, without cutting corners at all.For ordinary children who are beginners, it is not bad to be able to squat for a quarter of an hour.His little grandson looked at Wenwen's weakness, but actually persisted for an hour.If he hadn't called a stop, it seemed that he would still be able to persevere.

This is not only a test of physical strength, but also a lot of perseverance, and there must be tenacity in your bones.Seeing Jia Lian's still immature face, Mr. Zhou often breathed a sigh of relief.In the current aristocratic family, even the boys are brought up pampered. A good boy will grow up to be unable to lift his shoulders or lift his hands. He is really worried that his little grandson will do the same.

Although he loves his only grandson, he is also afraid that this child will not be able to bear the pain of practicing martial arts while talking about it.Looking at it now, it was a waste of worry, how could his grandson be so disappointing.He had clearly seen just now that his little grandson was trembling all over, but he still gritted his teeth and persisted, neither willing to give up, nor willing to cut corners and work hard.

After breakfast, the old man taught another round of boxing, and after the demonstration, he asked Jia Lian to fight again.There are a total of [-] strokes in this boxing method. He originally thought that it would be good for his little grandson to remember half of them, but he didn't expect that this kid actually punched eight.Nine is not far from ten.Such understanding is really a surprise.

Mr. Zhou was sitting on the edge of the martial arts arena, watching Jia Lian boxing with burning eyes.Gradually, his vision became a little blurry, looking at the figures in the field, for a while it seemed to be Jia Lian, and for a while it seemed to be his sons and grandchildren who died in battle.The old man's eye sockets were a little sore, and his clenched fists and knuckles were a little white.

There are three major pains in life, and the most painful one is given to the gray-haired person.And this kind of grief, he has endured it five times in his life, four children, one grandson, this time it was as if he and his old wife were tearing out the flesh.The little boy in the field will go to the battlefield one day sooner or later.So, is there another heart-wrenching pain waiting for them later?He is afraid!

Jia Lian didn't know his grandfather's fear, he just did his best to learn, horseback riding and archery, fist and foot swords and guns, military tactics, and formation of troops...Since he has made up his mind to join the army, naturally he won't do nothing Soldiers who have been on the battlefield.As a soldier, in the world of his previous life, he no longer had the opportunity to expand his territory, but here, he can realize his dream.

Mr. Zhou is not a person who worries about the sky without reason, and the inexplicable fear is only fleeting.Since Lian'er wanted to go to the battlefield to make contributions, he had no choice but to support her.There is nothing else he can do but pass on what he has learned in his chest, and he can only demand Jia Lian more strictly, so that he can have more life-saving capital on the battlefield in the future.

In order to increase Jia Xiaolian's life-saving coefficient, the old man even greeted the commander of the Peking University Camp, and threw it in for several months.One is to let Jia Lian experience the iron-blooded atmosphere of the military camp, the other is to let him learn the skills of life-saving on the battlefield from the group of soldiers, and the third is to get to know some contacts.

Jia Lian lived like a fish in water in Zhenyuan Hou's Mansion and Beidaying, but Rongguo Mansion was not so peaceful.Just after Chunwei, Shi Taijun and Mrs. Wang set their sights on Jia She's name for the shadow prison.In the Rongguo Mansion, only Jia She's title is the first rank, and there is a quota of grace; Jia Zheng, a sixth rank civil servant, is not qualified.

Ever since Jia Zhu listened to Shi Taijun's wishes, she gave up her face and went out to meet and discuss with the scholars, and she felt that it was very beneficial.So I decided that I didn't enter the country in my studies before, because I didn't have any companions around, and I couldn't discuss and research with each other.Relying on his own status, he refused to go to an ordinary academy, so he sent his idea to the highest institution in the country - Guozijian.

Although there are many ways to enter the Imperial College, people are always used to finding the most convenient one.Since Jia Amnesty has a quota of grace in his hands, it is natural that it should be given to his eldest nephew who is striving to make progress.Left and right, his son Jia Lian likes to dance with guns and sticks, but he doesn't make progress, and he doesn't need that quota.As for Jia Amnesty's wishes, is there any need to ask?The nephew has become a talent, and his face is also bright.

It's a pity that things didn't go as planned, Jia She shook his head violently when he heard it.Turning around, he began to complain, and the expenses in the mansion became more and more difficult. The last time he went to the long house to pay money, he didn't even have 200 taels; another servant complained to him, and the monthly money was getting worse and worse. Timely, it was almost ten days late last month; Mrs. Xing filed a complaint again, and her case turned out to be a shoddy one...

"Don't be angry, old lady. There are many and complicated things in our family. I think it's a bit too busy to come to the second family. It's okay for the eldest room to suffer some grievances. It's just that the second family is tired, so my uncle can't bear it." Ah." Jia Amnesty also pretended to persuade Shi Taijun, but then suggested: "The left and right Xings have nothing to do all day, why not let her and the second family take care of each other."

Shi Taijun and Mrs. Wang were so angry that they wanted to roll their eyes, and secretly scolded the boss for his good thinking.Ever since the former eldest wife, Mrs. Zhou became seriously ill, Shi Taijun took over the housekeeping rights of the first room and gave it to the second room.Even if Jia She later married his stepwife, neither of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law mentioned the matter of the housekeeper.Relying on Mrs. Xing's successor from a small family, she never thought of handing over power.

Now it is only a quota of Guozijian, and it is too beautiful to want to exchange half of the housekeeper's right.No way!The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law didn't accept Jia Amnesty's fault and thought of other ideas.Jia Amnesty didn't care if he failed to achieve his goal. Sooner or later these two women would come to beg him, and he wasn't in a hurry.

Sure enough, I tried everything I could think of, and the old lady and the second wife of the Rongguo Mansion, who had a lot of hands and eyes, failed to accomplish this trivial matter.The easiest way is to donate a prison student, but this is not the right way. Jia Zhu doesn’t want to be afraid of being looked down upon; please recommend it from the county of origin. They have already made arrangements there, and they are all sons of honorable and important officials. Intentional things have to be put in the back row...

After a lot of work, a month or two passed but nothing was done.Although Jia Zhu didn't say anything, her expression was getting depressed day by day, her appetite was poor all day long, and she didn't have much energy, and her body looked weaker.Shi Taijun and Mrs. Wang were so distressed that they gritted their teeth and stomped their feet to agree to Jia Amnesty's request.

Mrs. Xing felt a little elated when she got the right to be a housekeeper.When she was at home in her early years, her mother died young, and she was also a good housekeeper.Although Rongguo's family has a great career, these are all things that can be mastered. She is quick to learn, and the director is more agile than Mrs. Wang.Although he was a bit greedy for petty gain, it didn't hurt that Jia Amnesty was watching.

In addition, there is another happy event for the eldest family——Master Xi's glory is still undiminished, and the family is going to have a baby.In September of this year, Aunt Zhang was pregnant, and in March of the following year she had difficulty giving birth to a baby girl.Aunt Zhang suffered a bloody collapse and left before she had time to look at the child.Because the child was born when the winter jasmine flowers were blooming, Jia She gave him the baby name "Yingchun".

The famous "Er Wood", how could Jia Lian go back to the Rongguo Mansion to see his sister without knowing it.As a result, the cute baby didn't look at it, only a wrinkled red-skinned "monkey".Because it was a premature baby, the "little monkey" didn't even have the energy to cry, so he spoke softly.Jia Lian was afraid that he would gasp for breath and blow the "little monkey" out of breath.

Mrs. Xing was rather depressed. She had hoped that if she was a boy, she would be raised under her knees, and she would be a support in the future.But who would have thought that after waiting for these months, he was born as a loser, and immediately lost interest in paying attention.Jia Lian saw that the younger sister was really pitiful, and the nurse was not easy, so she went back to Jia Amnesty and transferred Nanny Zhao to the Yingchun room to take care of things.

When Jia Xiaolian thought about it again and went to see "Little Monkey", he realized that "Little Monkey" had changed and looked a little cute.For the sake of "Little Monkey" being so competitive, Jia Lian decided to pay more attention, at least his sister would not be bullied by the wet nurse.

Since entering the Imperial College to study, Jia Zhu has worked harder and harder, and gradually attracted the attention of Master Li of the Imperial College Jijiu.He felt that it was rare for a noble son like Jia Zhu to be able to work so hard and make progress, and he would definitely not be a thing in the pool in the future.After more than half a year of observation, Li Jijiu was also satisfied with Jia Zhu's talent and learning, so he wanted to get married.

Shi Taijun and Jia Zheng were quite satisfied with this marriage. Although Guozijian Jijiu is not a high-ranking official, he is a teacher of the world and comes from a noble background.Jia Zhu has such an old father-in-law, which will be of great help to him in the future imperial examinations.Although Mrs. Wang looked down on the Li family, she didn't say anything for the sake of her son's future.So, the marriage was settled, and they had to wait for Yuanchun to get married after the draft.

Jia Zhu is a happy event, but things are not going well with Jia Yuanchun, the guide.The general election is imminent. When Jia Yuanchun was full of ambitions, the empress suddenly collapsed. The Holy One was deeply saddened and stopped the round of general election.As a result, 15-year-old Jia Yuanchun was left at home.She will be eighteen in the next round of draft. If she is not selected, there is no way out at her age.

But if they don't choose, Shi Taijun and others will not be reconciled, even Jia Yuanchun himself will not be reconciled.She has learned the rules since she was sensible, and she has endured a lot of hardships, in order to be selected into the palace one day.This has come to a close, how can we give up? !When the Rongguo Mansion was hesitating, a piece of news came that reassured them.

Although the general election has been suspended, there is no small election for the selection of court ladies and female officials, but it will not be until next year.At this time, the Rongguo Mansion couldn't care less about being picky. Regardless of the general election or the minor election, the most important thing is to send Jia Yuanchun to the prince.After more than a year of hesitation, Shi Taijun finally had a choice between the crown prince and Prince Yizhong.

Of course, the wish is good, but the result is very unsatisfactory.The future Xiande concubine failed to stay in the Prince's East Palace, but was assigned to the Fourth Prince Zhongsu Prince Yuwenhu's Mansion as a female official.Jia Lian didn't know what was hidden in it, but he didn't care, all he wanted was the result.Yu Wenhu, are you blessed by heaven?

Chapter [-] Shy Xifeng Sees Jia Lian Shui Going All the way to Jinling for Trial

Today's Rongqing Hall is very lively, there were some guests.The person who came was Mrs. Wang's sister-in-law, Mrs. Li, with several girls from the Wang family.After waiting for many years, Mrs. Wang's second elder brother, Wang Ziteng, was finally transferred to Beijing, and now he is the deputy governor of Beijing.The current Jingying Jiedu Envoy is already old, and Wang Ziteng came to Beijing to serve as a deputy at this time, obviously in preparation for taking over the Beijing Yingying.

The Beijing camp guarding the capital city is the last line of defense for entering Beijing, and the position of the Jingying Jiedushi must be obtained by the emperor's confidantes.Mrs. Wang is naturally very proud of her elder brother giving her such a face.As soon as the natal sister-in-law came to the door, she led her to visit Shi Taijun, and by the way showed how promising her natal brother was.

Mrs. Li also brought three girls with her, one was older, about ten years old, and the other two were only five or six years old.The older girl is the elder brother Wang's daughter, her name is Xifeng, and her nickname is Brother Feng.This girl has a hard life, her parents died early, and there is only one elder brother left in the family, and now she lives with her second uncle Wang Ziteng and his wife.

Fortunately, Wang Ziteng had no children, so he simply raised Wang Ren as his son. Naturally, he would not treat Wang Xifeng harshly, so as to avoid suspicion in Wang Ren's heart in the future.Therefore, even though Wang Xifeng was living under someone else's roof, she did not develop a cautious temperament. Instead, she was witty and sharp, with wit in her eyes and brows.At this time, she was sitting next to Shi Taijun, a few words made the old lady laugh out loud.

Mrs. Wang talked with her sister-in-law, and let the new daughter-in-law Li Wan take care of the two little girls.Although she is not very satisfied with this daughter-in-law, she thinks her background is not high enough, and her dowry is not very good-looking.But this also has an advantage, that is, it is easy to handle.Thinking about it, if Zhu'er married a daughter-in-law of noble birth, she would have to flatter her daughter-in-law, and Mrs. Wang would recognize Li Wan.

"Sister, last time you sent a letter saying that you were pregnant, but your brother was so happy. No, you will send me to come and see you as soon as you arrive in Beijing." Wang Lishi held Mrs. Wang's hand, showing envy She looked at her lower abdomen carefully, "my sister is blessed, your brother and I are happy for you. It's just that my sister is a bit older, so you must take care of yourself."

The second elder brother Wang Ziteng has no children, and his sister-in-law only gave birth to a daughter. Mrs. Wang knew that she was feeling uncomfortable, but she still couldn't help her joy, so she could only pretend to be shy and said: "I didn't expect that, Zhu Er, Yuan Er It's so big, but there is such a small thing, it's really embarrassing. Sister-in-law, stop talking..."

Mrs. Wang is quite satisfied with her current life, except that Jia Zheng's official position is too low, and the big house always puts her in trouble.In other respects, Mrs. Wang felt quite proud.There is only one aunt who is fading in the family, and there are no sons and daughters; both sons and daughters have their own futures, and their prosperity is just around the corner; she is nearly forty years old and can still give birth to pearls, which shows the love between husband and wife...

Jia Lian came here at this time.If it's nothing serious, he will only visit Rongguo Mansion once a month to see cheap father and "little monkey" sister, and pay respects to Shi Taijun and others by the way.A member of the Wang family came to the door today, just in time for him to come back.Originally, he didn't want to join in the excitement, but when Shi Taijun heard that he was back, he specially sent a maid to invite him.

The maid who came to invite Jia Lian was a celebrity, and she was the first mandarin duck that Shi Taijun would use around him in the future.At this time, the little girl was only in her teens, but she could already tell that she was dignified and respectful.Yuanyang grew up in Jinling, and only entered the mansion last month to serve Shi Taijun. It was the first time seeing the second master Lian of the big house, and he couldn't help but sneak a glance.

Everyone in the house said that Uncle Zhu is good-looking, but Yuanyang thinks that Second Master Lian is even better.At least, Uncle Zhu's pale and thin appearance is not as good as that of Second Master Lian, who is tall, handsome, with slender eyebrows and slender eyes, full of energy and spirit.Accidentally meeting Lian Erye's eyes, the little girl blushed quietly, lowered her head and walked quickly to Rongqing Hall.

As for the celebrities in the red building, Jia Lian took a good look at them, but caught Yuanyang peeking at them, and couldn't help but smile.For two lifetimes before and after, in terms of skin, God is still very worthy of him.However, as soon as the little mandarin duck was shy, Jia Lian wanted to inquire about Rongqingtang, but now it was in vain.

"Lian'er, come and pay a visit. This is Mrs. Wang, your second aunt's sister-in-law." While introducing, Shi Taijun pushed Wang Xifeng out beside him, and said with a smile, "Let's see this girl again, do you still know her?"

People from the Wang family?Jia Lian bowed to see Mrs. Wang Li, and she took her hand and praised her, and then accepted the gift, before turning to look at the girl Shi Taijun was talking about.A girl in her teens, not too tall, with a slender and graceful figure.She didn't bow her head shyly like ordinary girls, but looked straight at her with full eyes.

Looking at the face again, "a pair of red and phoenix triangular eyes, two curved willow leaf hanging eyebrows", the pink face contains Chundan lips and smiles, looking like a beauty.Seeing such a girl, also surnamed Wang, Jia Lian would not know who it was.As soon as he thought about it, he already understood why Shi Taijun had someone call him here.It turned out that the marriage between Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng already had a clue at this time.

"This is Feng girl, boudoir name
