[Red House] How to escape from a broken ship
Chapter 27
Liang Lun smiled wryly: "Why don't I know that in terms of the lintel's status, this is a good marriage. It's just that the princess really hates them using this method."
Lin Hai and Liang Xu looked at each other with a smile, and Lin Hai said: "Yizhi, don't worry, brother Ziyuan and I mean that this marriage is right, but we can't promise it."
"Sister-in-law!" Princess Changle over there did not agree: "You still say that this is a good marriage! Sister Min, do you say the same?" Back then, Jia Min, as the daughter of the prince Shaobao, entered the palace and read it with the princesses. Shu, and Changle can also be regarded as the acquaintance of the president.
Jia Min smiled helplessly: "Princess, listen to sister-in-law first, there are many good marriages in this world, do you want to agree to them one by one?"
"That's right, it doesn't matter if the Tenth Prince and the Tenth Princess said it unintentionally or because of someone's instigation. It proves one thing: the Liu family's family style is really not strict enough." Mrs. Guo smiled: "After all, they only made their fortunes from the Marquis of Dingcheng. , the general will reach the third generation, and he will always be the general."
"Sister-in-law said so," Jia Min then continued, "Thus, although the position is appropriate, we cannot agree. Princess, please rest assured. Does the Liu family dare to force the princess to come to the house?"
Princess Changle sneered.
Lin Hai took his wife and children home, and then called his daughter and nephew to the study. He sat behind the desk, Jia Yan sat opposite, and Daiyu sat next to the bookcase behind his father.
"In the Liang Mansion today, did you hear anything?" Lin Hai asked this question: "Yu'er, did you hear anything?"
Holding the travel notes in her hands, Daiyu said, "I haven't heard anything, but it seems that sister Ah You encountered something when she entered the palace, and she cried a lot."
"Uncle, nephew also heard that someone bumped into Miss Liang."
Looking at the two children here, Lin Hai still understands the truth. He knows that a gentleman does not bully the dark room, and he does not talk about right and wrong. "I didn't want you to know the inside story, but you are growing up day by day. Ah Yan wants to take the imperial examination to become an official and serve the country, and Yu'er also wants to go out to socialize with her girlfriends. There are some things in Beijing that I still want you to know."
Starting from the story of the three common people, he talked about the current situation all the way, Lin Haidao: "Today's matter still comes from the battle for the reserve position. Although the Liu family is a new noble, it is a family of military exploits and royal relatives. For three generations, it has been a bit frivolous to rely on one's own merits, but others are fine. The relationship between Beijing and China is complicated, so you all have to be careful, well, don't be too afraid, let's go first."
Jia Yan stood up and saluted, Daiyu also left his father's study, and the brother and sister left the study one after the other.Daiyu felt that the atmosphere was different from before. When she was a child, Jia Yan also talked and laughed in front of her, and even helped her catch fish, but was thrown into the fish pond.Now they have walked all the way and refused to utter a word. Could it be that they have been separated for three years and the relationship has faded?
"Brother Ayan," Daiyu said in a low voice, "I remember that my brother has a set of historical records of the Five Dynasties in his hand, can I borrow my sister to read it?"
Jia Yan avoided Daiyu's gaze and said, "Of course, don't worry, sister. I'll go back and find it, and ask someone to deliver it to my sister."
"..." Daiyu became unhappy: "Why doesn't my brother look at me when he talks? Is it because I haven't seen you for a long time, does my brother feel that talking to my sister will hinder my identity? Or think that my sister has become an ugly girl without salt, brother Will you startle yourself if you look at it more?" At the end of her speech, her tone was slightly narrow-minded.
Jia Yan hurriedly waved his hands: "No, no, brother, why would you think that way, let alone..." He stopped abruptly, almost biting his tongue, wishing he could take back the words.
Daiyu asked the maids behind her to step back, and the two of them walked slowly: "What's more... well, my brother is now separated from me, although I should avoid suspicion when I am older. But my sister always feels that brother and sister are together. In the past few years, my brother has never forgotten to bring me a gift or write a letter, but I never thought that he would not even look at me and say a word." His voice trembled as he spoke, as if he was about to cry.
Jia Yan was so frightened that she waved her hands again and again: "I don't dare to look more because my younger sister is getting better!" He said the words in a hurry, which shocked Daiyu, and looked around to see that no one heard her before she felt relieved. .
Jia Yan is telling the truth. In the past, when Daiyu was young, her brother and sister grew up together. No matter how good-looking she was, she was just a cute little sister. She even had to say something funny, but now it’s different...
I haven't seen him in three years, not only Jia Yan has grown taller, but Daiyu has also really grown up.She is now wearing brightly colored clothes, with a cute and narrow smile on her face, just looking at herself like this, Jia Yan is usually quick-witted, but now she can't even speak a serious sentence.
Dongwan brought people out, and seeing Jia Yan and Daiyu blushing and not speaking to each other, she went in without knowing, "Why are you standing here with your cousin? It's cold today, how cold it is." When she spoke like this, Jia Yan stammered and asked Daiyu to sit in the courtyard, but Daiyu blushed and refused to say anything, so she turned her head and left.
"Is this a mess?" Dong Wan also watched them grow up together, so this description, is it embarrassing.But neither the eldest girl nor the young master Biao is a bad-tempered person.She thought it was strange to ask Dong Wan to watch it, but she could only persuade the young masters about it.
Jia Yan stood in the room and hesitated for a long time, and finally found out the historical records of the Five Dynasties himself, wrote a note, and asked Dongwan to send it to Chengzhutang.As for what Daiyu said after receiving the books and notes, I won't say for now.
It is only said that Lin Hai went to the Ministry of Household Affairs on this day, and the old Shangshu was unable to support himself recently, so Lin Hai, the servant, was ordered to take charge of the affairs of the Ministry.So only Jia Min took her daughter and nephew to her mother's house, because the old lady mentioned Jia Yan several times before, and now she always wants to visit her when she comes to Beijing.
Jia Min took her daughter to Jia Mu's room, and Jia Yan followed Jia Lian who came out to greet Jia Zheng to Jia Zheng's study. Jia Baoyu, Jia Huan, and Jia Lan's uncle and nephew were all there.Jia Lian found a reason to slip away after sending the people, and the rest of them greeted in groups. Jia Yan said: "I heard from my aunt earlier that the old man has two sons and one grandson, all of whom are intelligent and handsome, and brother Bao is even more talented. , the sound of young phoenixes is clearer than that of old phoenixes."
"Nephew, sit down quickly." Jia Zheng just likes scholars, not to mention that he is a rising star in his family, "No wonder nephew Bo Heng can be accepted as a disciple for brother-in-law, it is rare to find a gentleman." He put on a straight face. Teach your children and grandchildren: "Do you see it? This is the character of a scholar. Your uncles, nephews and brothers should also be good students and study well. In the future, good students will make progress in the imperial examination! Understand!"
The tone was very stern, and the younger ones responded sternly: "Understood!" Jia Yan looked at Jia Zheng, then at the uncles and nephews, and sighed inwardly. Such harsh words, and being a prince of the government, can like reading It's strange.
After all, they don't want to gain self-reliance from this, and they don't need to use this to add weight to themselves so that they can handle family affairs.
Jia Zheng took Jia Yan to comment on the article with the guests, and then read Jia Yan's handwriting, which surprised him.But before he had time to say anything, someone came outside to report that the old lady invited Uncle Yan to come over.Jia Zheng had no choice but to order Baoyu to "send your elder brother there!" He stayed to watch the homework of his youngest son and grandson.
Jia Baoyu was actually not bad, Jia Yan followed him all the way from the study to the upper room where the old lady was, and although he was a bit childish when he spoke, he was frank and honest, without pretension.Baoyu pointed to the courtyard of the Rong Mansion to introduce Jia Yan, and smiled again: "Brother Boheng will have an exam in the coming year, so I won't bother you. After my brother is named on the gold list, I will introduce the children of the Beijing-China Shijiao to my brother. The younger brother gets along very well."
Jia Yan nodded with a smile, and followed Jia Baoyu into the upper room amidst the announcements from the maids. His first feeling was "the whole room is full of women!" Of course the old lady Shi Taijun sat next to him It was my aunt Jia Min, and sitting next to me were two middle-aged ladies, probably the two wives in this house.
"The late Jia Yan met the old lady, and the old lady had a happy life and good health, and everything went well."
The old lady smiled and said: "Get up, get up." After she finished speaking, she looked carefully, and said with a smile: "That day Baoyu came back and said that the clan brother was very handsome. At that time, he also said that he had learned how to judge people. When I saw you today, it was true. !"
Jia Yan leaned forward and smiled, "It's all brother Bao's praise, and Yan is ashamed to receive it."
The old lady was also happy to hear him call Brother Baoyu, and asked the big girl Yuanyang to come over with a gift, laughing and saying it was superficial.He said again: "That's good. After all, it's the Jia family. It's placed here with your aunt. It's a nephew and a nephew, and it's not an outsider. In fact, Baoyu is the same as his father. He can't respect scholars more. If he has time , I hope you can teach him more." Jia Yan responded with a smile.
He also met Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang, each with their own respect.Then let the girls come out, "You count them as your sisters, and I will see them all. If I hear or meet them someday, I don't know who it is. It's not a joke."
Although Jia Yan is a guest, he is also a brother of the clan. Jia Min has already prepared his gift in return, and he only thanked his sisters for their gifts.There were also gifts from the Mrs. Xue's family and the two Mrs. Shihou who came to send the Shijia girl over, etc. Jia Yan just lamented that it was a coincidence that he met him. These wives are really generous. This one is cheap.
Then he followed Baoyu back to the study without mentioning it, and the girls in the upper room also went to play in the garden, leaving a room full of women.Mrs. Zhongjinghou is Jia Min's third cousin, she asked earnestly: "I haven't consulted my aunt yet, but the little Jia Juren looks to be eighteen or nine years old. I wonder if I can make an appointment with her?"
In this room, except for a few girls from Rongfu who didn't care about Jia Yan because they belonged to the same clan, the elders who were girls with other surnames didn't care.Although the Great Wu Dynasty was not as exaggerated as "catching a son-in-law under the list" in the past, for a young man like Jia Yan who is not only related to the military general Xungui, but also a young man who has passed the entrance examination step by step from a child student, it is difficult for him in the capital. As far as the famous family Xungui is concerned, he is really a good candidate for son-in-law.
Not only Mrs. Zhongjinghou, but also Mrs. Baolinghou leaned over and asked with a smile. Although Aunt Xue was not good at speaking, she listened with her ears up.
Jia Min was not surprised when they asked this question. Originally, in the eyes of others, it was time for Jia Yan to talk about marriage.She just smiled: "To tell you the truth, my cousins, brother Yan has been studying hard since he was young. His parents are gone, and the master has always thought that his nephew is still young. He will wait until next year's exam and palace exam. He chooses a wife."
Although heroes don’t care about their origins, if a boy can seek a future and struggle to get ahead, he must be in a better situation than a girl.But Jia Yan's parents are a shortcoming after all, and most people would hesitate a little when thinking of getting married.
Sure enough, Jia Min told the truth, the two Madams Hou had to discuss with the master, but if it wasn't for the occasion, Aunt Xue wanted to shout: "Our family doesn't mind!"I don't mind at all.
In the evening Jia Min had brought the children home, Jia Zheng and Jia She came to say hello to his mother, Jia She didn't know where to go wandering during the day, the old lady had a headache thinking of his disrespectful appearance, so she just let him Go back to sober up and rest.Only the second son, Jia Zheng, was left behind. Naturally, they didn't pay so much attention to the conversation between mother and son, so they talked about Jia Yan.
"Speaking of it, we are close relatives, as well as your sister and husband. Although the girl in our family is not good enough, I think there are several girls of the right age in your cousin's family." The old lady said: "Look Woolen cloth?"
Jia Zheng said: "What the mother said is that the son thinks the same way. Let's look at the child's handwriting. He is a firm-hearted person, but his speech is not as sharp as that of a young man who achieves his goals. There is also a brother-in-law leading the way." Teach me, the future will definitely not be bad."
The old lady nodded slightly. Her second son was sometimes a bit circuitous, and was too anxious when urging Baoyu to study.But his eyesight is not too bad, just look at Jia Yucun, which he was optimistic about before, and he knows that Jia Shifei is now the Governor of Shuntian.
"Speaking of which, I have one more thing to do." The old lady said slowly, "Baoyu is sixteen years old. Although I said that he should not marry early, it's fine if we make an engagement. What do you think?"
Jia Zheng said, "I don't know if the one my mother is looking for is... my niece?"
The old lady said with a smile: "Exactly, my aunt's cousin, I have you in the house, Yu'er will not be wronged when she comes back here, and Baoyu has always been very kind to the sisters. Although there is no fame now, our family Your child, when he is older and in better health, let him take the exam or donate to prison, your brother-in-law and sister will also consider it."
"Hey, this villain, it's hard for my mother to plan for him." Jia Zheng stamped his feet: "If he is like Bo Heng now, my son can have the cheek to talk to his sister and brother-in-law, alas."
When he said this, it aroused Jia Mu's thoughts. The old lady pondered for a long time, and said: "Speaking of this, I also want to say a few words to you. Do you still remember when you were young, poetry and wine were born in Beijing?" It is also famous. At that time your father was alive, even though I thought you were wrong, but your father still said that the child is still young, he only needs to know how to read, and other temperaments can be taught slowly. Now, Baoyu does not really hate reading, It’s just that the boy has a bad temper and doesn’t like to socialize, so you should teach him slowly, what’s the use of always catching him and scolding him?”
This reminded Jia Zheng that when his father was still alive, he really indulged him a lot. He never caught him to speak harshly or beat him up... He said: "Mother, it is true that the son is anxious. The situation at home is not as good as that of my father. While alive, a son is not as good as a father."
This made the old lady sigh, and then she said: "It's all right, now that Prince Yizhong and the eldest grandson of the emperor have been crowned, they have been more tolerant of people like us in recent years. Sigh, teach me, Looking at it this way, good times are yet to come, so don't worry. By the way, it's easy to talk about others. You should tell her about your daughter-in-law. Just say that when you choose a wife for Baoyu, you will never choose Xue's family. "
Jia Zheng usually didn't care about the internal affairs of the family. When his mother said this, he was taken aback for a moment, and then he realized: "My son understands, and he will talk to Mrs. Wang." The old lady nodded. went.
The second master, Jia Cunzhou, thought very well. As soon as he said it, his wife Wang would understand, but he never expected that Wang would immediately say: "How can Baoyu's wife get a niece!"
Jia Cunzhou's tone also changed: "What did you say? Lin's niece, how can Baoyu be wronged?"
Lin Hai and Liang Xu looked at each other with a smile, and Lin Hai said: "Yizhi, don't worry, brother Ziyuan and I mean that this marriage is right, but we can't promise it."
"Sister-in-law!" Princess Changle over there did not agree: "You still say that this is a good marriage! Sister Min, do you say the same?" Back then, Jia Min, as the daughter of the prince Shaobao, entered the palace and read it with the princesses. Shu, and Changle can also be regarded as the acquaintance of the president.
Jia Min smiled helplessly: "Princess, listen to sister-in-law first, there are many good marriages in this world, do you want to agree to them one by one?"
"That's right, it doesn't matter if the Tenth Prince and the Tenth Princess said it unintentionally or because of someone's instigation. It proves one thing: the Liu family's family style is really not strict enough." Mrs. Guo smiled: "After all, they only made their fortunes from the Marquis of Dingcheng. , the general will reach the third generation, and he will always be the general."
"Sister-in-law said so," Jia Min then continued, "Thus, although the position is appropriate, we cannot agree. Princess, please rest assured. Does the Liu family dare to force the princess to come to the house?"
Princess Changle sneered.
Lin Hai took his wife and children home, and then called his daughter and nephew to the study. He sat behind the desk, Jia Yan sat opposite, and Daiyu sat next to the bookcase behind his father.

At that time your father was alive, even though I thought you were wrong, but your father still said that the child is still young, he only needs to know how to read, and other temperaments can be taught slowly. Now, Baoyu does not really hate reading, It’s just that the boy has a bad temper and doesn’t like to socialize, so you should teach him slowly, what’s the use of always catching him and scolding him?”
This reminded Jia Zheng that when his father was still alive, he really indulged him a lot. He never caught him to speak harshly or beat him up... He said: "Mother, it is true that the son is anxious. The situation at home is not as good as that of my father. While alive, a son is not as good as a father."
This made the old lady sigh, and then she said: "It's all right, now that Prince Yizhong and the eldest grandson of the emperor have been crowned, they have been more tolerant of people like us in recent years. Sigh, teach me, Looking at it this way, good times are yet to come, so don't worry. By the way, it's easy to talk about others. You should tell her about your daughter-in-law. Just say that when you choose a wife for Baoyu, you will never choose Xue's family. "
Jia Zheng usually didn't care about the internal affairs of the family. When his mother said this, he was taken aback for a moment, and then he realized: "My son understands, and he will talk to Mrs. Wang." The old lady nodded. went.
The second master, Jia Cunzhou, thought very well. As soon as he said it, his wife Wang would understand, but he never expected that Wang would immediately say: "How can Baoyu's wife get a niece!"
Jia Cunzhou's tone also changed: "What did you say? Lin's niece, how can Baoyu be wronged?"
