Ai Ruo's life in the red mansion

Jinling had already sent someone to inform, and Jia Jing and Jia Zhen were waiting on the bank to welcome the coffin.Dai Shan died a bit aggrieved, and Jia Zheng didn't have the nerve to tell Jia Jing, so he could only be vague.

Although Jia Jing no longer has a real job, but at least he became a prince, and he also had a share in the newspaper. He vaguely knew that Dai Shan's death was related to the Jia Shi family, but this is a secret house, and no one dared to spread it out in the Ming Dynasty. On the face of it.They honestly sent them back to the old house in Rongfu, and the family members also welcomed Jiamu and her party.

They were all instructed, and Mrs. Dai Hua was not in good health, so she said a few words, shed a few tears, and went back.Mrs. Jing looked much better than before, obviously leaving the capital, she also felt good.

Mrs. Jing didn't ask any more questions, and took Ai Ruo to the house for a while. Before they came back, Daishan asked them to help take care of them. After receiving the notice from the servants, they were also actively preparing, so everything was settled. well done.

"It's really troublesome sister-in-law." Ai Ruo is really satisfied, the mourning hall and so on, they helped to fix it before, and she hardly needs to do anything now.

"What are you talking about? Don't you help me with the matter in Beijing? Now that you are here, I have another place to go." Mrs. Jing smiled and gently pressed Ai Ruo's hand , said that the two families are very impolite, looked at Ai Ruo, then looked back at the west courtyard where Jia Mu lived, thought for a while, "You look not very good, although keeping a filial piety is a little bit harder, don't be hard on yourself, you have so many children You have to raise it, and if you break your body, no one will care."

"Yes!" Ai Ruo also knew that she was not referring to Shouxiao, but to the one in the West Court, but she couldn't say anything.Mrs. Jing also knew that she could not speak.He called the steward and handed over the keys of the Rongfu, which means he officially handed over the management rights of the Rongfu.

In fact, it is not the right of stewardship, after all, the management here is self-contained.They are just helping to manage the house, pay accounts and so on, and they have to be handled by Ai Ruo, who is in charge of the house.So the things in the early stage, money and so on, were all settled by Ningfu.Ai Ruo will not be ignorant, and immediately said, "Repay the money, thank Mrs. Jing for her help, and the two will arrange the next things together."Mrs. You Jing led the relatives of the family to get to know each other, and let Ai Ruo know that although this is not the capital city, the people of the Jia family have never been worry-free.

Jinling's ancestral home and ancestral tomb.But it's not really a place, it can be called the Four Families of Jinling, and the servants of the Jia family can become one of the scourges in Jinling, so we know that the power of the Jia family is here.Maybe the standard of condolences is not as good as that of the capital, but the number of people must be much more than that of the capital.Even the head of the Zhen family, whose name was only heard in the book but not seen, came to express his condolences in person, which seemed very solemn.

And that's exactly what happened.This made Ai Ruo face up to the status of the Jia family in Jinling for the first time, so the pride of Jia’s mother in the book is not groundless, she came from such a fierce fire, and although she paid attention to the Yuanchun family, she didn’t necessarily show it. How exciting it was for her.That's nothing, because she's seen the more grand ones before.

Although I didn't have a chance to see it, since Daishan held another funeral in Jinling, even though Jia Zheng is already a very standard feudal scholar-bureaucrat, he abides by the proper etiquette, but it's not like that outside. She was really shocked by the road festival sign on the street.Therefore, even if they are frugal, they still do what they should do.

Ai Ruo gently lowered the curtain, but Jia Yuan still opened it, and looked out of the window quietly. Although she didn't speak, she could see from her eyes that she could understand, and she was also thinking. .

The monks and Taoists were invited to do the ritual, and Daishan was buried according to the rules, and Daishan was finally buried in peace.They tidied up properly and gave generous gifts to the Ning Mansion. Of course, after cleaning up the previous accounts by the way, Ai Ruo can be regarded as living in peace and can keep his filial piety with peace of mind.

During this period of time, Jia's mother was surprisingly calm, and she didn't make any crying tricks. When guests came, they didn't know what happened in Beijing. Also want to curry favor with.Jinling is full of old relatives, for example, the old lady of the Zhen family and Jia Mu are very good friends, but the Zhen family can compare with these families, they know Jia Mu's reputation, and Daishan's death is not easy, The old lady of the Zhen family didn't dare to step into this muddy water at all, so she sent an old woman to give her supplements, talked with her for a while, and then honestly withdrew.Normally, if the old lady didn't pull others to talk about it, it would be a ghost, and she didn't even stay.

Ai Ruo is very concerned about the Zhen family. After all, the Red Chamber refers to the four great families in Jinling, but the Zhen family always seems to be a hidden line. Some people say that the Zhen family and the Jia family are actually allusions to each other. At this time, Ai Ruo didn't want to go into the details anymore, she only knew that the fate of the Zhen family was the same as that of the Jia family later, and they were the first to perish, so she secretly became polite in her heart, not daring to get too close to them.

But the Zhen family even came over to greet Jia Mu after seeing her, and gave her a gift. Naturally, the things are a little less than Jia Mu, but the problem is that it is not more than quantity, but quality. Ai Ruo is not just here. The one who knows nothing.I thank the old lady of the Zhen family politely, ma'am, I will not say anything more, Jinling also knows that the second wife of the Jia family is a gourd with a sawed mouth, and she doesn't have much to say on weekdays, so she didn't say much, and left .Ai Ruo asked people to spread the gifts on the kang table, and stared at them for a long time.

Jia Yuan sat on the side, picked up the white jade pendant, and looked at it carefully.This is what the Zhen family said, for the second wife to enjoy.This is not a funeral ceremony, the funeral ceremony has already been delivered, this is just a normal communication after the funeral.However, the Zhen family usually sends this when they come and go?

Sure enough, there is no good place to stay. Thinking about it, sister-in-law Jing didn't say a word or two to remind her, but thinking about it, she patted her head, and she was stupid again. What else does Ningfu have now?The Zhen family's brain is broken, so they will do this, so the Ning Mansion is really here to keep their filial piety, and there is no one to associate with except the family.But the Rong Mansion is different, it is clear that the sage looks at it differently, the three children have their own belongings, and the future is bright, these people will certainly not let go of the opportunity to make friends.The old lady's side is obviously not working anymore, so she can be regarded as the new head wife, and they are paving the way.

Thinking of this, Ai Ruo didn't dare to take it lightly, and specially asked to close the door from now on, they are here to keep their filial piety, so they must behave like a filial piety.As for the old lady, pay attention.Everyone also understands what she means, so there is no need to say more.

But it is also depressing, because this is the ancestral house, and when the family was divided, it was passed on to the eldest son of the eldest son.So they are just here to borrow. Many of the servants here are sent by Jiamu's head, and many of them are still Jiamu's confidantes. No matter how much Ai Ruo makes troubles, she really never thought of tossing Jinling's people to train , I am blind this time, and it is impossible to change them all at once, so I can only observe slowly.

Of course, being in Jinling is not all bad. Ai Ruo finally sees the youthful version of Aunt Xue.Originally, she wanted to let her go back to the capital to take advantage of Mrs. Wang's birthday, so that everyone could meet.Now she didn't go, but came here by herself, which saved a lot of trouble.

And the best thing is, she can help Aunt Xue recuperate her body in person. Before, she could only write some recuperation prescriptions from a distance, but it was just scratching her head, and the effect always made her feel a little uneasy. You can take the pulse yourself.

Although she doesn't remember Xue Pan's age, she thinks that she is about the same age as Wang Xifeng, so no matter what, it's not a matter of one or two years. She doesn't want Aunt Xue to wait so long, and then give birth to a dumb king, and finally fall into the evening scene desolate.Besides, if she gave birth earlier, even if her husband died according to the time in the book, the child would be older than that, right?So when the Xue family came to express their condolences, she asked Aunt Xue to come again after a hundred days when there was no one there, and she would give her a good look.

When Daishan died, he stayed in Beijing for 49 days, and then walked on the road for more than a month. When he arrived at the place, he practiced things and tapped acupuncture points to look at the ground.Aunt Xue picked a day and came to the door.They were close relatives of flesh and blood, and they didn't pay too much attention. They went to Jiamu's place to answer a question, and Aunt Xue sat in Ai Ruo's room.

Aunt Xue is two years younger than Wang. At this time, she is actually just nineteen, but perhaps she was originally a concubine, married into a merchant, and lost a child, so her face has a bit of bitterness, but if you look closely, In fact, her face is more beautiful than Wang's.That's right, if someone can be a concubine, the color will not be bad, and the child will be so bad?

Jia Hu and Jia Zhu were studying with Jia Zheng outside, while Jia Yuan and Jia Lian were in the room.Ai Ruo helped her to sit down, let Jia Yuan and Jia Lian come forward to greet her, and explained.

"Brother Hu and Zhu'er are studying in the study outside with your brother-in-law. They are not allowed to come out until noon every day. I will see you after dinner. I hope my sister will forgive me."

Jia Yuan stepped forward and bowed decently to Aunt Xue. Jia Lian could speak very well now, although she walked a little crookedly, she stood up straight, stepped forward and called Auntie sweetly.He crooked into Ai Ruo's arms.

Aunt Xue's eyes turned red when she saw that Ai Ruo had both children.After giving a lot of gifts, I really wish I could hug Jia Lian in my arms and rub it for a while, but I also know that Jia Lian is from the big family, and Jia Yuan is my sister's own. I hugged Jia Yuan and looked at it carefully. I am happy to praise and praise.

Ai Ruo has searched the memory before, Aunt Xue's mother can walk, she has been raised by Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Wang is a good person, but she is really not that small, she has never been mean to her .However, there is a difference between the concubine and the concubine, but the Wang family is that petite. Although she doesn't show it on the surface, she is not very close to this younger sister since she was young.

It's just that they are married separately. Wang's family is married to the Duke's family, and he likes to show off with his younger sister.In the past two years, Ai Ruo has changed the core, but she has become sincere to her. Of course, this sincerity is still watery, but she is afraid that it will really follow the plot, so she can't justify it.Myself, hello, everyone, good principles, try to make the bad things go away, so that she can live her life well, isn't it.
