Uniform unicorn
Chapter 22
Three days before the exam, Jia Jue stopped reading, and talked with Jia Mu, and drew pictures when she was alone.Everyone in Jia's family knew his habits, so they all chatted with him, and they chatted about things that had nothing to do with the imperial examination.
Because Mrs. Wang was unconscious, Aunt Xue often visited Rongxi Hall, but it was precisely because Mrs. Wang was in a coma that it was inconvenient for Aunt Xue to stay there for too long.After all, Jia Zheng also wanted to enter the backyard, plus there was Aunt Zhao who didn't know what to say, Aunt Xue really didn't want to stay longer.
Originally, Xue Baochai was also going to stay with Mrs. Wang, but Jia's mother said that the girl's studies should not be delayed, and asked Xue Baochai to study and play with the girls of Jia's family.
Therefore, Rongqing hall is still very lively every day. With Wang Xifeng and Aunt Xue holding the hands, Jiamu and Mrs. Xing are happy every day.Jia Jue was grateful for Aunt Xue who still supported his grandmother and mother at such an age, and her attitude towards their mother and daughter was much more friendly.
The address for them has also changed from Mrs. Xue and Miss Xue to Aunt Xue and Miss Bao.
"... I heard Feng girl said that the eldest sister has a baby name, but call her sister Qiao?"
"My aunt also knows. It was given by Grandma Liu who came to our house to visit relatives. The old lady is very lucky. The granddaughter-in-law is afraid that her younger sister will not be able to hold back. Seeing that Grandma Liu is not young, but she has a strong body , I thought she was healthy, so I begged her to give my sister a baby name." Wang Xifeng explained.
"My eldest niece has a good baby name. Although there are folk legends that a cheap name is easy to make a living, people like us can't choose a baby name too casually. It's not suitable for a little grass and a little flower. This grandma Liu can choose this name." I think the name is recognizable." Grandma Liu is a rare person who knows how to repay her kindness, and Jia Jue doesn't mind saying something kind.
"Hey! Our family's Wenqu stars have agreed, so I have to thank Grandma Liu again. Ping'er, go and pack 20 taels of silver and have someone send it to Grandma Liu's house. Just say I thank her for sister Qiao This baby name was given by my son." Wang Xifeng really has nothing to say about her life, and she admires this sister-in-law Jia Jue.
The 20 taels of silver was for Jia Jue's face.
"An old man in a family is like a treasure. Sister-in-law Lian, the eldest niece hasn't been given the name yet." Jia Jue reciprocated, and it would be good for Qiao's sister to be named by Jia's mother, a super-emperor wife.
Wang Xifeng was overjoyed, the timing of her daughter's birth was not good after all, on July [-]th, her father-in-law and husband's attitude towards sister Qiao was average, and she has no plans to give her a name from now on.If the old lady named her daughter, she would definitely be willing.
So immediately began to flatter Jia Mu, just to ask for a good name for her daughter.
Naturally, Mother Jia would not object to her grandson's request, so she thought about it.
"The eldest sister is the only girl of the great-grandchildren, so let her be with my brother's cursive generation, and the single name is a sunflower. What do you think?"
"The name given by my grandmother is very good. I read in the book that there is a plant called sunflower overseas. This plant will always face the sun when it grows. Therefore, it is also called sunflower, and it really matches my eldest niece."
Jia Jue knew that sister Qiao's birthday on July [-] was not a good time for people at this time.Because according to the customs here, July is the ghost month in the traditional sense, and the whole month is full of ghosts and ghosts who come out of the ghosts and come to the world.And the [-]th of July is the seventh day of the yin, and it is also known as the yin within the yin. The horoscope of girls born at this time is not good, and I am afraid that it will have an impact on marriage in the future.
Jia Jue's explanation of the word sunflower in this way is really very suitable for sister Qiao.
Wang Xifeng naturally felt very good after hearing Jia Jue's words, and thanked Jia's mother a thousand times.
"Third brother, is there really such a flower?" Xichun asked Jia Jue next to her.
"Of course, the flower language of sunflower is faith, brilliance, arrogance, loyalty, and sunshine. It is a flower full of sunshine and hope."
"Ah, that's it, that's great!" Xichun was a little envious and a little happy.
"Don't think about it, there is a brother here." Jia Jue touched Xichun's head. Although Xichun was the youngest among the sisters, she could see it most clearly.But this understanding did not bring her much spiritual comfort, on the contrary it made her quite painful.
"Third Brother!" Seeing the doting and understanding expression on her third brother's face, Xichun wanted to hug him and cry for a moment.Cry out all the despair I have felt for the grievances I have suffered over the years.
"Fourth girl, you are bullying third brother again." Seeing Jia Jue's love for Xichun, Lin Daiyu felt a little sore.
She has been alone since she was a child. Even if she finally had a younger brother, she went there when she was just three years old, and even took her mother with her.
Deep down in Lin Daiyu's heart, she really wanted an outstanding elder brother. After arriving at Jia's house and seeing Jia Jue, Lin Daiyu sincerely regarded Jia Jue as her own elder brother.
"The seasons have changed during this time, how is my sister? If you don't like what you eat and use, you can just tell Zijuan directly. Counting the time, there should be a letter from Uncle Lin's side." Jia Jue shifted with a smile On the topic, these girls are all younger sisters in his opinion, and the younger sister loses his temper and is jealous, and the older brother naturally wants to coax him.
Sure enough, Lin Daiyu couldn't stop the smile on her face when she heard the news about her father.
"Sister Lin, Uncle Lin sent it last time..." Seeing Lin Daiyu smile, Jia Baoyu immediately left Xue Baochai's side and talked to Lin Daiyu.He was the busiest in the whole room, either by this sister or by that sister.
Soon, it will be time to try.
"Third brother, the old lady said that although the title of the gold list is important, your body is more important. If you can't stand it, come out first. You are still young anyway." Jia Lian handed the test basket in his hand to Jia Jue, He spoke again.
"I see, Second Brother." He had heard a lot of these words these days, but he knew that they were all worried about him, so he wasn't impatient.
After a series of inspections, Jia Jue successfully entered the Tribute Academy. Fortunately, the examination number he was assigned was not a bad one.Jia Jue carefully began to clean the examination room.This is where he will stay for the next three days. The longer he has been pampered and pampered these years, the less he will tolerate mess and mess.
Soon the exam time came, and Jia Jue got the exam questions.Leaving aside the rest, Jia Jue was immediately attracted by the topic of Taoism.
Regarding the issue of the northwest frontier, if such a question is asked in the general examination, is it possible that the frontier is unstable again?
Like ancient China, in this time and space, the struggle between the Han nationality and the northern minorities has never stopped.You are strong and I am weak, you are weak and I am strong, fight and fight, and fight and fight.
Daqing's national strength is not weak, but it has not been able to completely suppress the northern minorities like the Han and Tang Dynasties.The two sides also have conflicts on the border from time to time, sometimes encountering stronger ethnic minorities, and may even lose several cities in a row.
Although in the end the imperial court sent a large army to fight back those ethnic minorities who went south to plunder.But the loss of financial, human, and material resources is incalculable.
Jia Jue thought for a long time before starting to write. Solving the ethnic issue is not a simple matter, and it cannot be solved by a single strategy and a war.Starting from all aspects of politics, economy, culture, and military, we must take a multi-pronged approach and be patient.After Jia Jue figured out some things, he immediately wrote like a god, and quickly finished this most important policy topic.
The Jia family, because both the old lady and the eldest lady were chanting scriptures in the Buddhist hall to pray for the third master Jue.The other masters didn't dare to make trouble, they learned to do the same as the old lady, and some stayed in the house to embroider.
Even the servants are much more peaceful, and the servants of Qinghuiyuan pray to the Bodhisattva in their hearts every day.
"Ma'am, it's Zhou's mother who is here."
Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai in the Pear Fragrance Court were making female celebrities and gossiping, when they heard the servant girl come to report that Mrs. Wang's Mrs. Zhou Rui's family had come.
Aunt Xue gave her sewing hand a pause, then put down the things in her hands as if nothing had happened, stood up and went out to meet her.
"Girl, my mother will come to our place three times a day this week, but she's so annoying!" Ying'er secretly complained to Xue Baochai.
"What nonsense, you girl is getting more and more outspoken." Xue Baochai reprimanded in a low voice.
Ying'er has been with Xue Baochai for a long time, so she can naturally see that her girl is not angry.
"There is nothing wrong with what the servant girl said. The situation like the second wife requires a safe person to take care of it all the time. Madam and girl, it is inconvenient for you to go to Rongxi hall all the time. As the second wife, Zhou's mother My wife's accompanying room has not been less kind to the second wife before."
"Isn't it time to repay your favor?"
"You, you don't understand anything, don't talk nonsense." What Xue Baochai is worried about now is that if one day Mrs. Wang goes away, it is not impossible to remarry at the age of the second master. The connection is even weaker.
Xue Baochai thought again of her legendary eldest cousin. She didn't know what was going on in the palace now, and she also had the idea of entering the palace for a try, not knowing what the most noble place in the world looked like.
Xue Baochai listened to the intermittent conversations coming from the front yard, and had no intention of going out to say hello.No matter what the intentions of Zhou Rui's family's frequent visits are, they must receive them well.
The Jia family is their only shelter when the Wang family can't live there.
Xue Baochai thought about their accounts in the past few days, and she believed that if they were not still living in Jia's house, the losses on those accounts would have multiplied several times.My brother is not up to his expectations, and the shopkeepers and bosses below are already ready to move. If there are in-laws like the Wang family and the Jia family who are intimidating, the family business will be ruined even faster.
Seeing that the building in her home was about to collapse, how could Xue Baochai not feel sad in her heart, only hated that she was just a daughter, if she was a man, even if she couldn't be a butcher for an official, she could still carve out her own world outside.
"Mom, did you give her something again?" Seeing Aunt Xue coming in, Xue Baochai asked.
"It's just some bird's nest medicinal materials."
"I'm afraid most of these things won't be able to enter my aunt's stomach."
"One thing is good, I thank her for taking care of your aunt." Aunt Xue's tone was helpless, and she had to bow her head under the eaves. How could she tell the old lady that Zhou Rui's family often came to ask for some medicinal materials?
The reason why their family can live in Jia's house is also because Mrs. Wang is her sister.The water in this capital city is much deeper than Jinling, their Xue family only has money but no power, and their elder brother is not in the capital city, and living outside, I don't know how many people will think about their mother and son.
After all, she was not blessed to raise such a disappointing son.
"Your brother doesn't know what he's busy with outside, and he can't be seen at home day and night. The money in the family is spent like running water, but the income is getting less and less. If this continues, how will I have any money in the future?" Go see your father." These days, seeing the Jia family busy with Jia Jue's imperial examination, Aunt Xue couldn't help being envious.
The children of other people's families are already Juren at a young age, and they will have a bright future in the future, but Pan'er can't even keep the family business.
"Mom, my brother is just playing around a little bit. I'll just let my mother teach and teach me in the future." Xue Baochai comforted his mother weakly.
"Baochai, I'm afraid our family will still rely on you in the future. Mom has already entrusted someone to take care of the affairs in the palace. After the palace examination is over, the palace audition will begin. My son's character and appearance must be good luck in the future. Aunt Xue took her daughter's hand with a look of relief and expectation.
"mom!"
"It's just that although I have confidence in you, I'm afraid that when you first entered the palace, you still had to serve people. You were also raised by gold and jade at home. Now you have to serve people there, and Mom feels uncomfortable." Aunt Xue Start wiping away tears.
"Mom, Cousin Yuan's background is so much better than mine. Didn't she go to the palace to serve people for so many years? Our family always needs a backer of its own. Besides, my daughter is not willing to marry a mediocre person. Why don't you marry me?" Go to the most powerful place in the world to fight for it. Maybe my daughter can give Mom Zhen a command to come back."
Baochai knew that her mother's biggest regret in this life was marrying a merchant, and that she would never have the chance to be appointed in her lifetime.
"Okay, my son has ambition. Mom will send you to the palace no matter how much money you spend."
During the three days of the test, everyone in Jia's family felt that it passed very slowly. On the third day, both Jia's mother and Mrs. Xing got up early.
"Have you sent someone to watch at the entrance of the Gong Yuan?"
"Old lady, don't worry, the servants next to the third master have been waiting at the gate of the Gongyuan every day and twelve hours in the past three days."
"They are loyal. When Jue'er returns, you will give them a first-class reward." Jia Mu nodded in satisfaction, satisfied that her grandson could completely subdue the people around her.
"Yes, old lady." Yuanyang is used to the old lady rewarding the servants in Third Master Jue's house from time to time.
"Old lady, madam, Mr. Jue is back."
"Hurry up, let Jue'er rest first and don't come here to say hello, call the doctor to see Jue'er." Jia Mu immediately ordered.
"Yes, the old lady is right, let the doctor look at it."
Compared to the worries of Mother Jia and Mrs. Xing, Jia Jue felt that he was in good condition. Although staying in that cramped examination room for three days made him feel a little uncomfortable, he didn't feel sick.It's just that he fully knows that he can't go against the wishes of his elders in this matter, the best thing is that he will fully cooperate with them.
So Jia Jue obediently lay on the bed and was examined by the doctor, surrounded by a group of women.
"My son is fine, but he is a little tired. It's good to have a good rest these days. If the old lady and the eldest lady are worried, they can stew some supplements for you. The medicine is three-point poisonous, so I won't prescribe medicine for you. .”
"Alright, Dr. Liu is here."
Jiamu then told Yuanyang to bring some suitable supplements to Qinghuiyuan.Then he let Jia Jue take a good rest, and took someone out of the bedroom by himself.
"I know what kind of temperament your master is. I am the most impatient with those soups, but you have heard what the doctor said. If your master doesn't drink the supplements I sent, you can't let him go. You just need to send someone Just come and talk to me."
"Yes, old lady." Yixia and Guanmo kowtowed along with the servant girl from Qinghui Courtyard.
Jia Jue, who could hear clearly in the room: ...
Jia Jue's body has become healthier since he got the unicorn bead. After a good night's sleep, he was alive and kicking the next day.It's just that other people don't think so, Jia Jue gritted his teeth when he saw the soup Yi Xia brought in.
"Third Master, the old lady ordered..."
"Okay, your father knows, take it here."
After swallowing the last sip of the soup, Jia Jue felt a little bad all over. This tonic is not a traditional Chinese medicine, why is it so bad to drink.
Yi Xia lowered her head to hide the corners of her lips.
"Ahem, Yixia, you and I will go to grandma's side and say hello to grandma."
"Yes, sir."
"Grandson pays respects to grandmother, grandmother Jin An! Greetings to wife, wife Fu'an! The past few days, Jue'er's exams are exhausting grandmother and wife."
"It's just a few instructions, so I'm so tired." Mother Jia scolded, and then asked Jia Jue to come to her and look at his face carefully.
"Have you used those supplements?"
"It's okay, how can grandma's kindness and grandson live up to it... It's just that it's a bit more difficult to drink." Jia Jue made a disgusted expression in a funny way.
"You! The good medicine is bitter and good for the disease, but you can't come as you want." Mother Jia touched her grandson's rosy face lovingly, expressing her satisfaction.
"This child is so old, he is still afraid of suffering just like when he was a child." Mrs. Xing complained, but the expression on her face was doting.
"What's the matter? No one in the world is afraid of suffering. I am also afraid of suffering at my age." Now Jia's mother can't hear anyone saying that Jia Jue is not good, even her own mother.
Xing was not angry at all when she heard Mother Jia say that, but smiled and agreed with Mimi.
In Sanchun, Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai were both at school, Wang Xifeng was doing housework, and there were only Mother Jia and Mrs. Xing in the room. Jia Jue made them happy with a few words.
It has to be said that after he came to this world, his skills of coaxing female elders became more and more proficient.
"Old lady, someone from the old man in front came to say that he asked Third Master Jue to go over and ask about the examination." Yuanyang came in and replied.
"What to ask, what does he know, has he passed the imperial examination or has been to the Gongyuan, besides, he has finished the exam now, and his performance has been determined. Is it possible that he can change anything?" He didn't give his eldest son face.
"Grandmother, but father..." Pissed you off again?
Due to filial piety, Jia Jue didn't say what she said later, but Jia's mother and others could understand it.
"At such an old age, I don't know how to take good care of it. I pull the smelly and smelly things into the house. I pretend that I can't see them when I fool around with maids on weekdays. I never thought I would dare to buy people in those dirty places. Hmph, you go Tell your master that the old woman is so angry that she wants her grandson to be by her side. This unfilial old woman can't count on her, and the old woman has a filial grandson."
As soon as the old lady said this, the people outside Jia Amnesty almost kowtowed to death at the entrance of Rongqing Hall.
It's just that the servants of Rongqingtang won't let her stand in the way of the old lady.
In the end, this matter came to an end after Jia Shen heard the news and hurried over to kowtow to the old lady to make amends.
Jia Jue has already decided to look for medicines that can strengthen the body in the Qilin Pearl after the palace test is over. The old lady wants to live for a long time, and the longer she suppresses her cheap father, the better.
Because Mrs. Wang was unconscious, Aunt Xue often visited Rongxi Hall, but it was precisely because Mrs. Wang was in a coma that it was inconvenient for Aunt Xue to stay there for too long.After all, Jia Zheng also wanted to enter the backyard, plus there was Aunt Zhao who didn't know what to say, Aunt Xue really didn't want to stay longer.
Originally, Xue Baochai was also going to stay with Mrs. Wang, but Jia's mother said that the girl's studies should not be delayed, and asked Xue Baochai to study and play with the girls of Jia's family.
Therefore, Rongqing hall is still very lively every day. With Wang Xifeng and Aunt Xue holding the hands, Jiamu and Mrs. Xing are happy every day.Jia Jue was grateful for Aunt Xue who still supported his grandmother and mother at such an age, and her attitude towards their mother and daughter was much more friendly.
The address for them has also changed from Mrs. Xue and Miss Xue to Aunt Xue and Miss Bao.
"... I heard Feng girl said that the eldest sister has a baby name, but call her sister Qiao?"
"My aunt also knows. It was given by Grandma Liu who came to our house to visit relatives. The old lady is very lucky. The granddaughter-in-law is afraid that her younger sister will not be able to hold back. Seeing that Grandma Liu is not young, but she has a strong body , I thought she was healthy, so I begged her to give my sister a baby name." Wang Xifeng explained.
"My eldest niece has a good baby name. Although there are folk legends that a cheap name is easy to make a living, people like us can't choose a baby name too casually. It's not suitable for a little grass and a little flower. This grandma Liu can choose this name." I think the name is recognizable." Grandma Liu is a rare person who knows how to repay her kindness, and Jia Jue doesn't mind saying something kind.
"Hey! Our family's Wenqu stars have agreed, so I have to thank Grandma Liu again. Ping'er, go and pack 20 taels of silver and have someone send it to Grandma Liu's house. Just say I thank her for sister Qiao This baby name was given by my son." Wang Xifeng really has nothing to say about her life, and she admires this sister-in-law Jia Jue.
The 20 taels of silver was for Jia Jue's face.
"An old man in a family is like a treasure. Sister-in-law Lian, the eldest niece hasn't been given the name yet." Jia Jue reciprocated, and it would be good for Qiao's sister to be named by Jia's mother, a super-emperor wife.
Wang Xifeng was overjoyed, the timing of her daughter's birth was not good after all, on July [-]th, her father-in-law and husband's attitude towards sister Qiao was average, and she has no plans to give her a name from now on.If the old lady named her daughter, she would definitely be willing.
So immediately began to flatter Jia Mu, just to ask for a good name for her daughter.
Naturally, Mother Jia would not object to her grandson's request, so she thought about it.
"The eldest sister is the only girl of the great-grandchildren, so let her be with my brother's cursive generation, and the single name is a sunflower. What do you think?"
"The name given by my grandmother is very good. I read in the book that there is a plant called sunflower overseas. This plant will always face the sun when it grows. Therefore, it is also called sunflower, and it really matches my eldest niece."
Jia Jue knew that sister Qiao's birthday on July [-] was not a good time for people at this time.Because according to the customs here, July is the ghost month in the traditional sense, and the whole month is full of ghosts and ghosts who come out of the ghosts and come to the world.And the [-]th of July is the seventh day of the yin, and it is also known as the yin within the yin. The horoscope of girls born at this time is not good, and I am afraid that it will have an impact on marriage in the future.
Jia Jue's explanation of the word sunflower in this way is really very suitable for sister Qiao.
Wang Xifeng naturally felt very good after hearing Jia Jue's words, and thanked Jia's mother a thousand times.
"Third brother, is there really such a flower?" Xichun asked Jia Jue next to her.
"Of course, the flower language of sunflower is faith, brilliance, arrogance, loyalty, and sunshine. It is a flower full of sunshine and hope."
"Ah, that's it, that's great!" Xichun was a little envious and a little happy.
"Don't think about it, there is a brother here." Jia Jue touched Xichun's head. Although Xichun was the youngest among the sisters, she could see it most clearly.But this understanding did not bring her much spiritual comfort, on the contrary it made her quite painful.
"Third Brother!" Seeing the doting and understanding expression on her third brother's face, Xichun wanted to hug him and cry for a moment.Cry out all the despair I have felt for the grievances I have suffered over the years.
"Fourth girl, you are bullying third brother again." Seeing Jia Jue's love for Xichun, Lin Daiyu felt a little sore.
She has been alone since she was a child. Even if she finally had a younger brother, she went there when she was just three years old, and even took her mother with her.
Deep down in Lin Daiyu's heart, she really wanted an outstanding elder brother. After arriving at Jia's house and seeing Jia Jue, Lin Daiyu sincerely regarded Jia Jue as her own elder brother.
"The seasons have changed during this time, how is my sister? If you don't like what you eat and use, you can just tell Zijuan directly. Counting the time, there should be a letter from Uncle Lin's side." Jia Jue shifted with a smile On the topic, these girls are all younger sisters in his opinion, and the younger sister loses his temper and is jealous, and the older brother naturally wants to coax him.
Sure enough, Lin Daiyu couldn't stop the smile on her face when she heard the news about her father.
"Sister Lin, Uncle Lin sent it last time..." Seeing Lin Daiyu smile, Jia Baoyu immediately left Xue Baochai's side and talked to Lin Daiyu.He was the busiest in the whole room, either by this sister or by that sister.
Soon, it will be time to try.
"Third brother, the old lady said that although the title of the gold list is important, your body is more important. If you can't stand it, come out first. You are still young anyway." Jia Lian handed the test basket in his hand to Jia Jue, He spoke again.
"I see, Second Brother." He had heard a lot of these words these days, but he knew that they were all worried about him, so he wasn't impatient.
After a series of inspections, Jia Jue successfully entered the Tribute Academy. Fortunately, the examination number he was assigned was not a bad one.Jia Jue carefully began to clean the examination room.This is where he will stay for the next three days. The longer he has been pampered and pampered these years, the less he will tolerate mess and mess.
Soon the exam time came, and Jia Jue got the exam questions.Leaving aside the rest, Jia Jue was immediately attracted by the topic of Taoism.
Regarding the issue of the northwest frontier, if such a question is asked in the general examination, is it possible that the frontier is unstable again?
Like ancient China, in this time and space, the struggle between the Han nationality and the northern minorities has never stopped.You are strong and I am weak, you are weak and I am strong, fight and fight, and fight and fight.
Daqing's national strength is not weak, but it has not been able to completely suppress the northern minorities like the Han and Tang Dynasties.The two sides also have conflicts on the border from time to time, sometimes encountering stronger ethnic minorities, and may even lose several cities in a row.
Although in the end the imperial court sent a large army to fight back those ethnic minorities who went south to plunder.But the loss of financial, human, and material resources is incalculable.
Jia Jue thought for a long time before starting to write. Solving the ethnic issue is not a simple matter, and it cannot be solved by a single strategy and a war.Starting from all aspects of politics, economy, culture, and military, we must take a multi-pronged approach and be patient.After Jia Jue figured out some things, he immediately wrote like a god, and quickly finished this most important policy topic.
The Jia family, because both the old lady and the eldest lady were chanting scriptures in the Buddhist hall to pray for the third master Jue.The other masters didn't dare to make trouble, they learned to do the same as the old lady, and some stayed in the house to embroider.
Even the servants are much more peaceful, and the servants of Qinghuiyuan pray to the Bodhisattva in their hearts every day.
"Ma'am, it's Zhou's mother who is here."
Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai in the Pear Fragrance Court were making female celebrities and gossiping, when they heard the servant girl come to report that Mrs. Wang's Mrs. Zhou Rui's family had come.
Aunt Xue gave her sewing hand a pause, then put down the things in her hands as if nothing had happened, stood up and went out to meet her.
"Girl, my mother will come to our place three times a day this week, but she's so annoying!" Ying'er secretly complained to Xue Baochai.
"What nonsense, you girl is getting more and more outspoken." Xue Baochai reprimanded in a low voice.
Ying'er has been with Xue Baochai for a long time, so she can naturally see that her girl is not angry.
"There is nothing wrong with what the servant girl said. The situation like the second wife requires a safe person to take care of it all the time. Madam and girl, it is inconvenient for you to go to Rongxi hall all the time. As the second wife, Zhou's mother My wife's accompanying room has not been less kind to the second wife before."
"Isn't it time to repay your favor?"
"You, you don't understand anything, don't talk nonsense." What Xue Baochai is worried about now is that if one day Mrs. Wang goes away, it is not impossible to remarry at the age of the second master. The connection is even weaker.
Xue Baochai thought again of her legendary eldest cousin. She didn't know what was going on in the palace now, and she also had the idea of entering the palace for a try, not knowing what the most noble place in the world looked like.
Xue Baochai listened to the intermittent conversations coming from the front yard, and had no intention of going out to say hello.No matter what the intentions of Zhou Rui's family's frequent visits are, they must receive them well.
The Jia family is their only shelter when the Wang family can't live there.
Xue Baochai thought about their accounts in the past few days, and she believed that if they were not still living in Jia's house, the losses on those accounts would have multiplied several times.My brother is not up to his expectations, and the shopkeepers and bosses below are already ready to move. If there are in-laws like the Wang family and the Jia family who are intimidating, the family business will be ruined even faster.
Seeing that the building in her home was about to collapse, how could Xue Baochai not feel sad in her heart, only hated that she was just a daughter, if she was a man, even if she couldn't be a butcher for an official, she could still carve out her own world outside.
"Mom, did you give her something again?" Seeing Aunt Xue coming in, Xue Baochai asked.
"It's just some bird's nest medicinal materials."
"I'm afraid most of these things won't be able to enter my aunt's stomach."
"One thing is good, I thank her for taking care of your aunt." Aunt Xue's tone was helpless, and she had to bow her head under the eaves. How could she tell the old lady that Zhou Rui's family often came to ask for some medicinal materials?
The reason why their family can live in Jia's house is also because Mrs. Wang is her sister.The water in this capital city is much deeper than Jinling, their Xue family only has money but no power, and their elder brother is not in the capital city, and living outside, I don't know how many people will think about their mother and son.
After all, she was not blessed to raise such a disappointing son.
"Your brother doesn't know what he's busy with outside, and he can't be seen at home day and night. The money in the family is spent like running water, but the income is getting less and less. If this continues, how will I have any money in the future?" Go see your father." These days, seeing the Jia family busy with Jia Jue's imperial examination, Aunt Xue couldn't help being envious.
The children of other people's families are already Juren at a young age, and they will have a bright future in the future, but Pan'er can't even keep the family business.
"Mom, my brother is just playing around a little bit. I'll just let my mother teach and teach me in the future." Xue Baochai comforted his mother weakly.
"Baochai, I'm afraid our family will still rely on you in the future. Mom has already entrusted someone to take care of the affairs in the palace. After the palace examination is over, the palace audition will begin. My son's character and appearance must be good luck in the future. Aunt Xue took her daughter's hand with a look of relief and expectation.
"mom!"
"It's just that although I have confidence in you, I'm afraid that when you first entered the palace, you still had to serve people. You were also raised by gold and jade at home. Now you have to serve people there, and Mom feels uncomfortable." Aunt Xue Start wiping away tears.
"Mom, Cousin Yuan's background is so much better than mine. Didn't she go to the palace to serve people for so many years? Our family always needs a backer of its own. Besides, my daughter is not willing to marry a mediocre person. Why don't you marry me?" Go to the most powerful place in the world to fight for it. Maybe my daughter can give Mom Zhen a command to come back."
Baochai knew that her mother's biggest regret in this life was marrying a merchant, and that she would never have the chance to be appointed in her lifetime.
"Okay, my son has ambition. Mom will send you to the palace no matter how much money you spend."
During the three days of the test, everyone in Jia's family felt that it passed very slowly. On the third day, both Jia's mother and Mrs. Xing got up early.
"Have you sent someone to watch at the entrance of the Gong Yuan?"
"Old lady, don't worry, the servants next to the third master have been waiting at the gate of the Gongyuan every day and twelve hours in the past three days."
"They are loyal. When Jue'er returns, you will give them a first-class reward." Jia Mu nodded in satisfaction, satisfied that her grandson could completely subdue the people around her.
"Yes, old lady." Yuanyang is used to the old lady rewarding the servants in Third Master Jue's house from time to time.
"Old lady, madam, Mr. Jue is back."
"Hurry up, let Jue'er rest first and don't come here to say hello, call the doctor to see Jue'er." Jia Mu immediately ordered.
"Yes, the old lady is right, let the doctor look at it."
Compared to the worries of Mother Jia and Mrs. Xing, Jia Jue felt that he was in good condition. Although staying in that cramped examination room for three days made him feel a little uncomfortable, he didn't feel sick.It's just that he fully knows that he can't go against the wishes of his elders in this matter, the best thing is that he will fully cooperate with them.
So Jia Jue obediently lay on the bed and was examined by the doctor, surrounded by a group of women.
"My son is fine, but he is a little tired. It's good to have a good rest these days. If the old lady and the eldest lady are worried, they can stew some supplements for you. The medicine is three-point poisonous, so I won't prescribe medicine for you. .”
"Alright, Dr. Liu is here."
Jiamu then told Yuanyang to bring some suitable supplements to Qinghuiyuan.Then he let Jia Jue take a good rest, and took someone out of the bedroom by himself.
"I know what kind of temperament your master is. I am the most impatient with those soups, but you have heard what the doctor said. If your master doesn't drink the supplements I sent, you can't let him go. You just need to send someone Just come and talk to me."
"Yes, old lady." Yixia and Guanmo kowtowed along with the servant girl from Qinghui Courtyard.
Jia Jue, who could hear clearly in the room: ...
Jia Jue's body has become healthier since he got the unicorn bead. After a good night's sleep, he was alive and kicking the next day.It's just that other people don't think so, Jia Jue gritted his teeth when he saw the soup Yi Xia brought in.
"Third Master, the old lady ordered..."
"Okay, your father knows, take it here."
After swallowing the last sip of the soup, Jia Jue felt a little bad all over. This tonic is not a traditional Chinese medicine, why is it so bad to drink.
Yi Xia lowered her head to hide the corners of her lips.
"Ahem, Yixia, you and I will go to grandma's side and say hello to grandma."
"Yes, sir."
"Grandson pays respects to grandmother, grandmother Jin An! Greetings to wife, wife Fu'an! The past few days, Jue'er's exams are exhausting grandmother and wife."
"It's just a few instructions, so I'm so tired." Mother Jia scolded, and then asked Jia Jue to come to her and look at his face carefully.
"Have you used those supplements?"
"It's okay, how can grandma's kindness and grandson live up to it... It's just that it's a bit more difficult to drink." Jia Jue made a disgusted expression in a funny way.
"You! The good medicine is bitter and good for the disease, but you can't come as you want." Mother Jia touched her grandson's rosy face lovingly, expressing her satisfaction.
"This child is so old, he is still afraid of suffering just like when he was a child." Mrs. Xing complained, but the expression on her face was doting.
"What's the matter? No one in the world is afraid of suffering. I am also afraid of suffering at my age." Now Jia's mother can't hear anyone saying that Jia Jue is not good, even her own mother.
Xing was not angry at all when she heard Mother Jia say that, but smiled and agreed with Mimi.
In Sanchun, Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai were both at school, Wang Xifeng was doing housework, and there were only Mother Jia and Mrs. Xing in the room. Jia Jue made them happy with a few words.
It has to be said that after he came to this world, his skills of coaxing female elders became more and more proficient.
"Old lady, someone from the old man in front came to say that he asked Third Master Jue to go over and ask about the examination." Yuanyang came in and replied.
"What to ask, what does he know, has he passed the imperial examination or has been to the Gongyuan, besides, he has finished the exam now, and his performance has been determined. Is it possible that he can change anything?" He didn't give his eldest son face.
"Grandmother, but father..." Pissed you off again?
Due to filial piety, Jia Jue didn't say what she said later, but Jia's mother and others could understand it.
"At such an old age, I don't know how to take good care of it. I pull the smelly and smelly things into the house. I pretend that I can't see them when I fool around with maids on weekdays. I never thought I would dare to buy people in those dirty places. Hmph, you go Tell your master that the old woman is so angry that she wants her grandson to be by her side. This unfilial old woman can't count on her, and the old woman has a filial grandson."
As soon as the old lady said this, the people outside Jia Amnesty almost kowtowed to death at the entrance of Rongqing Hall.
It's just that the servants of Rongqingtang won't let her stand in the way of the old lady.
In the end, this matter came to an end after Jia Shen heard the news and hurried over to kowtow to the old lady to make amends.
Jia Jue has already decided to look for medicines that can strengthen the body in the Qilin Pearl after the palace test is over. The old lady wants to live for a long time, and the longer she suppresses her cheap father, the better.
