The Second Master Lian of the Red Chamber

Jia Lian has been married for several years, but there is only one daughter Jia Hui under her knees. Even though the emperor and empress in the palace look at Jia Hui differently and have a lot of favors, there are still many people in Beijing who are talking behind their backs. To be the last.These people speak so viciously and without morality, it may not be because they have much enmity with Jia Lian, but because they are jealous of Jia Lian being valued by the king, or because they are envious of Daiyu's success in everything, they are trying to deceive themselves and others with their quick tongue.

I don't want the Rong Mansion to be quiet and quiet, as if letting go of the gossip and gossip, and suddenly there is good news.In the twelfth lunar month, Daiyu said that she was ill and never went to the palace for a banquet, and all the banquets were postponed. Just after the first month, she gave birth to a son, named Jia Wei.Huixi Weixi is named after his elder sister.

It is also because Daiyu was born with a graceful and slender figure, and she could not see any abnormality when she sat around and talked with the orders of the various governments during the Mid-Autumn Festival in August. Therefore, it was not until the emperor and empress bestowed longevity locks and other auspicious things on children, that all the families in Beijing woke up. Come on, the wives and grandmas in charge of the house hurriedly prepared the full moon gifts and picked out the big clothes for going out.No matter how sour in their hearts, lamenting that this person is really different from human life, Rong Enbo's mansion is very hot, and they all have to come to the door with joyful cheeks to congratulate Tianpan.

It's just that there are many people who want to come to the door, but Jia Lian doesn't want his wife, children and family to be affected. A total of 36 families were invited for colleagues in the DPRK and China, relatives and old friends.

Among the lively in-laws who have been around these years, Xue Baochai's Huangshang Xia's family did not have a post on the day of the full moon, but this was also an agreement between the two families.

Over the past few years, Mr. Xia has tried every means to distribute money for his children and grandchildren to do good deeds, build bridges and pave roads, and adopt old and weak orphans. In the court and the public, many officials and censors described them as eunuchs and eunuchs.

For such a big happy event as the addition of a baby to the Rong Mansion, Mr. Xia was really impatient to attract any more words. Besides, as the saying goes, the meat of the buns is not on the folds. Avoiding this matter, he and his wife Xue Baochai drew up a generous gift list and sent it quietly one day in advance.

Xue Baochai's eldest son, Xia Yang, will enter the palace to serve the youngest son of Concubine Wang Shu in the spring. Even though the eleventh prince and Xia Yang are considered cousins, Xia Shouzhong is also watching from the sidelines, personally taking care of the beady-eyed nephew and grandson. After all, Xue Baochai's mother-in-law's heart is always tormented.

These days, apart from helping her husband with the family business, she devotes all her heart to her eldest son, and she loves the company of her eyes. The mother and son listen to Xia Shouzhong's handpicked eyes from the Ministry of Internal Affairs every day to teach etiquette and etiquette together. , Naturally, less thought is used on other things, and it is inevitable that people will be offended without knowing it.For example, Shi Xiangyun, Bao's second grandmother, who married to the second room of Rongfu and had children, was annoyed by the full moon gift that Xia's family sent to Jia Wei.

Although the Rong Mansion had separated, Jia Baoyu was still Jia Lian's closest cousin, so he accepted the post and brought his wife to spend the full moon with his nephew.But now Jia Baoyu only has a reputation as a scholar, and he is not very close to Jia Lian. His wife and grandma are naturally not very warm to Shi Xiangyun. , I had no choice but to go to Jia Mu's side to show my filial piety, and to talk with Xue Wang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who were also a little embarrassed.

At this point, Shi Xiangyun knew from Jia Mu and Xue Wang's mouth that the full moon gift that the Xia family gave Jia Wei was several times richer than the one-year gift given to her Luo Geer, and he was a little embarrassed at that time.

Thinking back when she was the daughter of the Marquis Mansion, she never treated Xue Baochai the slightest bit because she was born in a merchant, and even treated her more kindly than Daiyu and other aristocratic daughters. All the rare and new things she had, she had, were all shared with Xue Baochai. one serving.I didn't expect Xue Baochai to marry into Xia's family. I didn't learn anything else, but I learned a lot about the eunuch's ability to watch people order dishes. Even the etiquette of sisters and juniors has to be divided into three, six, and nine grades. It's really a waste She is sincere.

The more Shi Xiangyun thought about it, the more wronged he became. Annoyed that Xue Baochai was ruthless and snobbish, and hated the world's praise and deprecation, he sat aside with his head bowed, and finally even Jia Baoyu complained.If it wasn't for his being cold-hearted and not thinking about his wife and children, why would he be so idle?She no longer asks for the separation of husband and wife, but she really feels aggrieved for her hard-fought child.Listen to other people's children, Hui and Wei, which one doesn't have a very good meaning, and you can tell that your father values ​​it just by looking at the name, and think about your own Luo Geer, who would name such a name for his eldest son.

Mother Jia smiled and sat up high, naturally seeing Shi Xiangyun's unlucky look, and sighed for a long time in her heart, and finally excused being tired, and named Shi Xiangyun to serve her in, and did not reprimand her any more.

In the past few years, she has said all she can teach and persuade, good and bad words, and Shi Xiangyun insists on getting into a dead end by herself, and she has no other options.Anyway, she has already kept as much of her private house as she can, and she has got a promise from Jia Lian that she can always keep Jia Baoyu and Shi Xiangyun safe and prosperous.

Ever since two crazy monks and Taoists wandered outside their ancestral house in Jinling for several days while the officers and men were unprepared, they took the psychic gem in order to trick Jia Baoyu into becoming a monk, and even alarmed the guards and attracted the servant of the Ministry of Punishment. Mother vaguely guessed Jia Baoyu's origin in her heart.As long as her beloved grandson won't be kidnapped by that skinny monk and taoist priest, and he will keep his wife and children safe and sound and become a rich man, then she has nothing else to ask for.

Not long after Jia Wei's full moon, Lin Hai, who was still an official at home, submitted a booklet, claiming to be too old to handle worldly affairs, and wanted to make his only son Lin Zhang a nobleman.Yang Yuan agreed immediately, and decreed that the Lin family would not be degraded to the rank of nobility. Lin Zhang was granted the title of Uncle Zhongyi, and Lin Zhang's wife, Feng Shi, was granted the title of first-rank wife.

In the autumn of the same year, Jia Amnesty and Jia Zhen's uncle and nephew got into an argument for some reason when they were drinking and listening to operas in the Ning Mansion, and they both stumbled and fell into the flower pond next to the plum grove amidst the noise.Even though the two young servants risked their lives to save the Lord, Jia Zhen still died of the high fever and cold after falling into the water. Although Jia She was saved at the time, he fell to the root of the disease. Stroke hemiplegia, unable to speak.

Jia Cong had already been taught by the master Jia Lian invited to study and obtain fame, and the two aunts, Juan and Li, were at ease in the mansion with a group of maids and women to serve Jia She.As for the Ning Mansion, although Yang Yuan despises the virtues of Jia Zhen and his son, after all, he left them an empty title in the name of his ancestors.
