Ai Ruo's life in the red mansion

Aunt Xue took the opportunity to chat with Ai Ruo naturally. The Xue family had their own boat, but Aunt Xue felt that there were few people in the family and it was boring, so she squeezed Xue Baochai onto their boat, and Xue Shou took her son to Jia. On their boat, Xue Shou also read a few books, and Xue Pan is famous for being able to read. He is a bit square, but he is not lacking in reading, and he can mix with everyone.Anyway, the fleet will dock at night, and they will go back to their own boat to sleep.It's the same as visiting.

Baochai went to play with the girls, get together, read some books, play chess, and do some needlework. The aunts all took it, and Baochai herself had it too. She was born as a child. Ai Ruo told Aunt Xue A daughter needs to be pampered, and she has to be careful in everything. The Xue family even keeps up with a group of zongzi behind her son, let alone her daughter. There is really no choice.

Now Xue's family is not only rich, but also has some status. Of course, the top aristocratic circle cannot enter, but it is not the same as the poor orphan and widow in the original book.Baochai at this time, apart from being a little vain in his temper, really doesn't have the problem of preaching when he sees people in the book; The problem of how much something is worth.

However, now she knows the difference in identity more than ever.It's not jealousy, but she now understands very well that the children of these relatives raised by her aunt's family, even the future sister-in-law born of a concubine, are all of higher status than herself.These girls all have excellent destinations in the future, but my own can only look to my aunt and uncle to pick someone, and in the name of these two families, choose the best one for myself.It made her very discouraged, but there was nothing she could do. Their parents had done everything they could for them, but there were some things.It can't be changed, so sometimes, when I look on coldly, I see these sisters from my aunt's house, even the younger sisters Lin and Shi who are filial, they are actually a little lively and carefree.Because apart from their occasional nostalgia for their life experience, in fact.Most of the time, the sisters are together, studying together, playing together, and what else is on their minds.

In fact, Aunt Xue is also full of worries. Now that Xue Pan wants to study, she doesn't care about it. She is now wholeheartedly focused on what to do with her daughter.So the two old sisters muttered in Ai Ruo's room.

"You have to give me a frame, right? For example, what does your family want? A scholar, an aristocrat, or a general."

"What do you think?" Aunt Xue immediately looked at her sister with staring eyes.

"That's your daughter!"

"Don't you have a daughter too? By the way, I chose one for Baochai too." Aunt Xue immediately spoke lightly.

"What did your master say?" Now Ai Ruo felt that she and Aunt Xue were really sisters, so it sounded like what she said to the queen.The problem is, when choosing a daughter-in-law by herself, she asks the queen to help her. If she asks her to choose a son-in-law, she should just die.

"What can our master have? He naturally likes scholars, and there is a noisy one at home. That's it."

"Some of the Imperial College are the sons of low-level officials, do you think that?" Ai Ruo whispered.

Aunt Xue struggled for a moment, her daughter spent so much effort.The result told her that she would not feel at ease if she was asked to choose a son from a small official family with no foundation as her son-in-law. What's more, her elder sister's eldest daughter is the princess of the county, and the Lin family also has a princess, and the Wang family wants to welcome one. The county head is here, which means that the children of their families will be able to marry into wealthy families in the future. I feel sorry for my daughter. It’s really not bad, but I can only choose the son of a small official. Hearing this, my eyes are red .

"Ai ai ai, don't cry, why don't I let the empress find a good one?" Ai Ruo couldn't see this, and felt really speechless. If a child goes to the street with a gold brick in his arms, I will feel sorry for myself if I don’t snatch you.Aunt Xue has to be said to be a happy woman!

"Help me, empress? The son of the little official will be fine too, as long as the empress grants him a marriage." Aunt Xue immediately flashed her eyes and said eagerly.

"Sister, I beg you, do you want face or Baochai's happiness?"

"What do you mean?"

"The empress doesn't say whether she will give me this face. If she can help me choose a good one, it means that it is a person trusted by the saint. Even if it is a small official, the royal family can look up to it. What do you think about the future? The registered children of the sage are all good children. Let’s connect with each other and we can talk about it ourselves. They are also sensible. Do you know if this is the Queen’s idea? Besides the family background, if you say it’s a petty official, can you? Those who let their children enter the Guozijian must at least be of the fifth grade. Although they are not from a famous family, they are also the second or third generation of officials. After these years, their character and so on have been polished. , there are rules. Everyone can say that the husband and wife are harmonious and beautiful, this is the long-term solution. If you look for the top three who passed the exam by yourself, if you have never seen money in those lifetimes, you may have to despise Baochai in the future, really. Spending your family’s money, you still have to scold your people, when the time comes, a concubine today and a concubine will pull it into the house, what are you doing?”

Ai Ruo didn't agree to look for the poor family from the beginning, so I really can't afford to be so anxious.This kind of person is very angry. If he can't do it well, he won't be able to be promoted in the future, and he will blame his wife's bad life for bringing him down.So she would rather Aunt Xue choose the second or third generation of officials. Although the family background is a bit weak, there is no lack of tutoring and vision.

Aunt Xue was a soft-hearted, clueless master, she nodded hurriedly, but what she said made Ai Ruo angry, "I'll go back and ask our master."

But Ai Ruo didn't bother to get angry with her, otherwise she would have died of anger.

However, they had only walked halfway, and when they touched the shore, an official was waiting on the shore, and beside him was Liang Qi.

Seeing Jia's boat, he hurriedly greeted it.

"But the family members of Jia Ji Restaurant?"

"Eunuch Liang, you..." The daughter-in-law in charge knew Liang Qi, and saluted the official and Liang Qi, but it was Liang Qi who asked the question.

"The madam is here, the old slave came here to pick up the madam back to Beijing, and the empress called urgently."

The daughter-in-law hurriedly asked someone to invite Liang Qi in, but she smiled at the official, "My lord is very polite, please come and have tea with me on that boat." The daughter-in-law pointed to Jia Zheng's official ship.This boat is full of female relatives, Liang Qi can go in, but this one must not.

The official was also savvy, and waved his hand at the daughter-in-law, "You're very welcome, Prime Minister has prepared a fast carriage, and I have to leave immediately."

The daughter-in-law didn't dare to ask anymore, so she had to ask someone to invite Jia Zheng to come over.

Jia Zheng was going to come over to see his wife and children, and then to say hello to his old lady, but he happened to see it, so he hurried over to say hello.

"General Zhang, why did you leave Beijing?"

The daughter-in-law was surprised, she didn't expect that the man without armor was a general, but it was also a military general, not a real general who also wore armor in court, they were also in official uniforms, but the patch on their chest was different, so they were treated differently .

"My lord Jia, my mother hastened to summon my wife." General Zhang bowed his hands to Jia Zheng, and at this moment he had the air of a soldier.

"Oh, why don't you go over and have some tea? You have to settle down." Jia Zheng asked General Zhang to cross the boat without asking any questions.

Jia Zheng invited Mr. Lu to accompany his guests. He wanted to go and see Ai Ruo by himself, but after thinking about it, "If you dare to ask the general, there is an order from your mother."

"Liang Neixiang has already gone to see his wife."

"Oh, this is Mr. Lu, and this is General Zhang from the inner court."

"Mr. Lu is polite, but a puppy is not talented. He is studying at Dongmen Academy." Seeing Mr. Lu was much more affectionate than Jia Zheng, he immediately got up and laughed.

"Oh, I remembered..." Mr. Lu is such a well-rounded person, and he chatted with him with a smile. Jia Zheng hurriedly left and hurried to the boat of his wife.Ai Ruo was arranging the arrangements. Seeing Jia Zheng, he struggled for a while, "Do you want to accompany me?"

"Okay, what about the children?" Jia Zheng asked immediately without thinking about it.

"You should ask, what should the old lady do? Aunt Bai is the one to decide the big things. With so many people, they can naturally protect the children. But we are not here, and the old lady started to make a fuss, what should I do?"

"Aunt Bai, don't bother the two masters. If the old lady becomes noisy, please tell me who she is. Besides, the children are too noisy, don't let them disturb the old lady's cleaning." Jia Zheng gave Aunt Bai a bow. start.

Aunt Bai was also an old man, so she naturally knew the old affairs of the Jia family. What Jia Zheng said was very clear, the old lady was not allowed to get close to the girls, and if she dared to make trouble, let her use her status as a palace lady to suppress her.

Aunt Bai nodded, and Jia Zheng was relieved, turned to look at Liang Qi, and asked softly, "Did your lady say to take the little prince?"

"No, let the little prince have fun." Liang Qi smiled.

Jia Zheng nodded, feeling relieved, just in time, Zhou Rui's family had packed up some needed things and brought them up, and she was carrying one on her back, it seemed that she planned to go with her.Jia Zheng took the big bag and waved to Zhou Rui's family, "You stay to take care of it, if you ask, you don't know what to say. If Mrs. Wang asks, just say that we will wait for them in the south of the Yangtze River."

"Yes!" Zhou Rui's family nodded.

Ai Ruo really felt that Jia Zheng was becoming more and more reliable, and he let out a long sigh of relief.

"Lord Jia, madam, let's go!" Liang Qi felt mortified, and urged straight away.

Jia Zheng wanted to see the children again, but he was afraid that the children would cry, so he could only drag Ai Ruo and quickly get off the boat with his bag on his back.Zhou Rui's family was also sensible, so they sent for General Zhang, and they arrived at the pier, where there was a four-wheeler with four handsome horses in front.

Ai Ruo's feet are weak, no matter how good this car is, it is also an ancient car, and the horse gallops so fast, it will be knocked apart when it arrives in the capital.

Jia Zheng had no choice but to help her into the car, and then he followed. Seeing Liang Qi and General Zhang, they had already jumped on the horse. In order to reduce the weight, they would not sit on the car and slow down.Jia Zheng's heart sank.What happened to Kyori?
