Jia Hu of the Red Chamber

After Lin Hai became a first-rank official, it can be said that there are a lot of guests, and human relations are inevitable.It's just that there is a hostess who presides over the feed after all, and many things are inconvenient.It's not that Daiyu is bad, it's that her status is different, an unmarried boudoir daughter, there are always many things that are difficult to come forward.

It was Daiyu who took a break from her busy schedule and took a car to Yiyonghou's Mansion and invited her cousin Zhou Jie to come over to help entertain the guests, so that she could really cook properly.

Lin Hai had a lot of dealings with the Jia Hu brothers. Back then, they were the two of them who secretly took refuge in the present. Whether it was a sojourn or a hostage, a pair of sons and daughters had always lived in the family's house for many years. In the Ming Dynasty, Jia's family was still Daiyu. The brother and sister's family is serious, and they have been in contact with each other since they entered Beijing. Now Mrs. Hou came to help in person, and the Shangshu Mansion and the Hou Mansion naturally became closer.

Even though he thought of Jia Hu's persecution under the current situation, Lin Hai was still very happy to make friends with his deceased wife's natal nephew.After all, those who achieve great things don't stick to small details, except for fighting for the position, Jia Hu is indeed a person who is beyond reproach.

The person who was least willing to walk with Jia's family was Uncle Lin Lin Xun.

It stands to reason that Lin Xun has always been on good terms with brother Zhuo, and his friendship with Jia Lan is not bad. When it comes to Jia Hu and Jia Lian's two cousins, he has been full of praise, so he should be happy to go back to Yiyonghou's mansion to talk and joke.However, the stewards came to invite me a few times. Not only was Lin Xuan unable to go back because of trivial matters, but even his sister Daiyu had to stop her.

Lin Hai looked at it coldly for a few days, only to realize that the only son probably had some taboos about Jia's inner house, otherwise he would be very warm when he met Jia Hu and other men outside on weekdays, why did the old lady say that she missed her granddaughter? The stinky boy is feeling uncomfortable all over?

Carrying him directly into the study, Lin Xun looked at his father's face, and without urging him, he spoke clearly like pouring beans from a bamboo tube.

Speaking of the days in the Jia family these years, apart from the fact that the second aunt Wang was able to rely on the roof beams of the big house in the first year and Jia Hu was fledgling, she was flirtatious at home, teasing their siblings, Lin Xun and her brother. My sister's life in Jia's house can be described as very comfortable.

Although the grandmother had some calculations in mind, she really treated them well. The decent granddaughter would have to step back. The sister-in-law Hu who ran the family pitied them for losing their mother and leaving their hometown, and took care of them a lot in daily life.

Lin Xuan was accompanied by his nephews to study, Lian's second elder brother was so serious as to solve doubts, Daiyu was accompanied by his sisters to play, and Hu's sister-in-law Lian's second sister-in-law was a decent and famous lady who gave advice, even though the second uncle's cousin Baoyu often made troubles. Crazy, the siblings just ignore him.

The bad thing is the grandmother Shi Shi.

When Lin Xun was young, she felt that her grandmother was too partial to Baoyu. For example, Baoyu provoked her sister's red eyes, and her grandmother just wanted to persuade her siblings not to care about Baoyu, saying that Baoyu was just a child. Temperament, there is no bad intention at all, and they want to "be more harmonious" with that bastard, he and his sister are younger than Baoyu.

That's all, anyway, Baoyu is the grandmother's direct grandson, and he and his sister are always of foreign surnames, so they can't get angry with the master's family.But the grandmother repeatedly thought about letting her sister be alone with Jia Baoyu, and Lin Xuan really couldn't bear it.

He simply didn't restrain his childish temper anymore. Lin Xun made a few troubles, which made Jia Baoyu, the phoenix egg, ashamed. Even when he went to the palace to study with His Royal Highness, he didn't dare to be too presumptuous before giving up.

If it weren't for the fact that her sister's boudoir reputation was hindered, Lin Xun would have been unable to hold back for a long time because she was worried about leaving the news, and scolded Jia Baoyu for being shameless and obscene in letters to her father.

When it came to the day when she bestowed the marriage on her sister, Lin Xun expressed joy on the one hand and no longer worried that her grandmother would rely on her elders in her sister's marriage, and worried on the other, fearing that Jia Baoyu's foolish act would do evil in front of others and ruin her life. ruined my sister's reputation.

Fortunately, Jia Baoyu didn't even have a fart.

The nanny said that Jia Baoyu was so excited that he lost his mind at that time, and he was so stupid that he couldn't think of messing around, but Lin Xun was even more disdainful of him.He was obviously afraid of his second uncle and aunt, and was afraid of being beaten if there was too much trouble, so why did he pretend to be infatuated?

If there is anything that Lin Xuan really didn't expect, it is how much his grandmother loves Jia Baoyu.

It's all come to this stage, because Jia Baoyu would cry endlessly when she heard that her sister was going to be a Viscountess in the future, and her grandmother didn't allow the girl to mention her sister's marriage, saying that her siblings were going to be married forever. live in this mansion.

Co-author Jia Baoyu is the treasure of my grandmother's heart, and others are just rubbing grass casually.If Lin Xuan thought that his grandmother's love was three parts fake and seven parts true, now he doesn't believe even one tenth of it.

Since he was a child, he was studious and motivated, and his time in the inner circle was limited, and his affection for his grandmother was much shallower than that of his elder sister Daiyu. Now that he returned to his own home to make decisions, his grandmother still liked to take Baoyu with him, so he naturally didn't want to do it again. go back.

Lin Xun's mouth was dry before he stopped, and Lin Hai also explained the ins and outs of the matter clearly, laughed and scolded his son, and then let him go down, making up his mind to let his daughter stay at home and prepare for marriage. Don't go out.

Lin Xun had a hearty talk in front of his father, but Jia Zhuo, Jia Mao, and Jia Yu were friends with him, but Jia Hu and Jia Lian were so restrained that they didn't dare to say a word.

Jia Zhuo was the oldest, and felt that his younger brothers and cousins ​​were staring at him. He couldn't help cursing the bastards for wanting him to be the rafter, but he didn't want to think about how he had the courage to stroke his father's beard. .

Just as he was slandering, Jia Hu glanced at him with a half-smile, and immediately became honest, and tried his best to pull out his immature body.

From the corner of Jia Lian's eyes, he caught a glimpse of his elder brother scaring his eldest nephew again, and he became more interested. He lifted the hammer and dropped it, and the small walnut cracked open, just in time for the entrance, as if he didn't realize that the boy who was frightened like a quail still had his eldest son, Jia Yu. .

Jia Hu is also a servant in two departments. He is so busy on weekdays that he has to practice riding and shooting with His Royal Highness from time to time. The nephew called out all at once, and the whole family sat around drinking tea and eating fruit.

However, he has developed a narrow temper at this moment, and he didn't speak when he called someone, but only ate his son's nephew's uneasiness with tea.

It was Jia Lian who felt sorry for the younger generation. After eating enough small walnuts, he gave the rest to his nephew Jia Zhuo. He smiled and said, "Do you think the idea I said that day is good?"

Jia Zhuo and the others were at a loss, but Jia Hu understood that Jia Lian was referring to two things.One is Chunwei, who Jia Lian is going to take the exam for this subject, and the other is separation.

Jia Lian made it clear that day that he felt that he would be successful in this subject. As long as he was successful, he would only ask to be released after three years as a concubine. Have a good house and settle down.

Jia Hu understood that this was because Jia Lian valued the bond between their brothers since they were young, and was afraid that in the future, money would touch people's hearts, and there would be rifts for no reason.If the family was separated earlier, the distant fragrance and the near stink, the friendship between the two families can last longer.

Jia Hu also understood these reasons very well.It's just that after finally becoming famous, the Erfang family was kicked out of the mansion, and the younger brother who was connected by blood planned to leave on his own, Jia Hu felt heavy and uncomfortable in his heart.

But this step cannot be separated.He and Jia Lian were no longer the children who slept side by side in those days. They already had wives and children, but the two of them were still the same as before, and sooner or later there would be stumbling blocks when the two families lived together.

Sighing, Jia Hu lowered his eyes and said lightly, "That's fine."

Jia Lian raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and suddenly got up and picked up Jia Mao with one hand and Jia Yu with the other, and was about to send the two of them to play somewhere else. He didn't even look at them, he hurriedly followed out with the plate.

On the board, Jia Lian just brushed off his robe again and lifted the curtain to come in.

"But send those little demon stars away, so we can talk about some serious things." He giggled, Jia Lian just pretended not to understand the meaningful eyes of his elder brother.

Jia Hu scoffed, but didn't point out that Jia Lian was protecting the bastards, and just poured tea for Jia Lian again.

Jia Lian was also unambiguous, and as soon as he knocked on the right as a salute, he took a cup of tea cow and drank a cup. After quenching his thirst, Fang asked angrily, "Why are you in such a hurry? After the next year, the concubine will visit her relatives. If you wait another year, what will happen?" Safekeeping so that none of them can escape."

"Then Ying girl has become a living target in the palace?"

One sentence blocked Jia Lian's voice, so Jia Hu lowered his voice and said the reason: "Think about it carefully, why is there no obstacle in the prince's vacating the capital? Wait another year, the saint is waiting, you and I are waiting, then I just can't wait, when the time comes, Sihai Baisu, what kind of relatives will I save?"

A few months ago, the emperor immediately became popular with the servant girl presented by Concubine Zhen. It is difficult for Jia Hu to explain such secrets of the palace, it is enough for Jia Lian to know that the emperor's order is not long.

Sure enough, Jia Lian understood right away. After a long silence, Fang said in a muffled voice, "Then you should be more careful, it's so cold."

The merciful Tian family died long ago, and even if the sage didn't feel any affection for the emperor, how could Jia Lian not worry about his elder brother?

Jia Hu couldn't say that the father-son relationship between the saint and the emperor was better than nothing, so he could only slightly nod his head, and then fell silent again.

The tea was warm and the sandalwood scented the nostrils. The two brothers were relatively silent for a while, and it was the mandarin duck in the old lady's room who came over in person, saying that the old lady was going to pack up the box and go to the second master's house to relax, so Jia Hu responded.

Jia Lian didn't say a word, until the mandarin duck was far away, then she raised an eyebrow at Jia Hu: "Look, it's good if one of the ten boxes can be returned. It's like guarding against thieves, lest we rob her and give it to the second master." The body of the family."

It wasn't that Jia Lian took Shi's private house seriously, it was because Shi was too partial, and he was upset.

Jia Hu looked away a long time ago, and when she heard the words, she gave Jia Lian a stern look, but her tone was still calm: "Who doesn't have any relatives in the house who can play the autumn wind? No matter how many ideas you give, your relatives will not be in vain."

This was said yesterday when I heard that the second wife brought the second master Bao back to greet the old lady. The Lai family who was joking around in front of Zhou Jie said it just to please Zhou Jie. listen.

Speaking of which, it was none other than the old lady's old maid, Hu Po, who was the one who relied on the family.

Seeing that he couldn't keep his two grandchildren, Shi Shi put on the appearance of a kind mistress, and gave the big girl amber and agate to Jia Hu and Jia Lian respectively, and decided to assign the mandarin ducks to Baoyu by the way, just waiting for Baoyu to have the eldest son. , sent to the mansion over there to make a face to be an aunt.

Hearing that the mandarin duck can accompany her for a lifetime, Jia Baoyu is naturally happy, and Wang is also very satisfied with the mandarin duck who has always taken care of the old lady.Jia Hu and Jia Lian declined Shi's kindness.

Jia Hu was determined never to take concubines, while Jia Lian hated people who came out of Shi's house, which made Zhou Jie and Liu Xia's sister-in-law look relaxed for many days.

In the end, the honest manao was assigned to the son of the housekeeper Lin Zhixiao, while the frivolous and frivolous Amber was assigned to Lai Shangrong, the son of Lai Da.

Lai Shangrong is the eldest son of the Lai couple. As soon as he landed, Nanny Lai begged for a decent release. He was raised as a real son and brother, and he ignored everything and only read a few books in his belly.According to the plan of the Lai family, they will use the power of the Jia family to donate an official to Lai Shangrong in the future.

I don't want to think that once the situation changes suddenly, the second master and the first house of their family who have always been attentive will lose their power. Uncle Hu, who has been treated slowly in the early years, dares to refute the old lady's face. Taking care of slaves like them is nothing like crushing an ant to death. After parting, he had to clench his tail to do things, and married his son back to a slave girl.

Lai's family was forced by their master to welcome Hu Po into the house, and they were naturally very indifferent to the bride. Lai Shangrong, who had a heart full of ambitions, had a nose that was not a nose and eyes that were not eyes when facing Hu Po.

When Hu Po was still a girl, she dared to point her finger at the decent girls and men in the mansion. How could she bear this tone after being harassed by Lai's family? It didn't take long before she begged someone to sue Zhou Jie, saying that it was Lai's family. The housekeeper corrupted Mo Gong's bank and filled his own pockets.

If someone comes to sue, there is no reason not to investigate.

Jia Hu was going to the yamen, and Jia Lian personally led someone to ransack "Grandpa Lai"'s house, and the amount of money found was astonishing.

Lai Shangrong was from a good family, and Jia Lian couldn't use punishment, so he had to send him to the governor of Shuntian Mansion. The rest, except Nanny Lai and the informant Amber, were sold far away on the same day.

When Shi got the news, the Lai family didn't know where they were going, but Hu Po wanted to remarry, but Nanny Lai refused to let go, so she could only look at Kong and leaned next to Zhou Jie, trying to please her in every possible way, hoping that the grandma would let her go and let her go. with others.

I don't know if Mrs. Wang would vomit to death if she heard that the girl who had never looked at her before called her a poor relative who came to play Qiufeng.

The two brothers wentssip again for a while, and when they heard that the old lady had already boarded the sedan chair and left with the second wife, they went back to the courtyard and chatted with their wives.

On the second day of court, the sage really issued an order to allow concubines to visit relatives, and the court and the public were full of praise. Those who had sisters and daughters in the harem at home paid close attention to Yiyonghou's mansion, and even the Wang family wanted to follow Shi's family back to the mansion Two, but Zhou Jie said slowly that the beauty is doing her filial piety beside Concubine Zhen, who is lying in bed, and she will be blocked back next time, so she won't be able to sleep in bed for a while.

Afterwards, the wooden boxes and cages that were moved into the Yiyonghou's mansion like flowing water really made the relatives of the relatives red-eyed, and they all compared each other, and they must make their own relatives garden come out on top.

A group of people fought happily, but they didn't know that after Jia Hu sent his confidantes to bring things into the mansion, except for a small part to repair the garden in the mansion, most of the rest should be gathered into Sister Gui's dowry. In the dowry, those that should be locked up and put back into the saint's private treasury are also properly arranged, and the garden in the mansion is surrounded with things, and the craftsmen are sent in to live there.

There was a lot of heat in Beijing until Yiyonghou's sister Concubine Rong was left by Empress Chen to worship the Buddha on the day of family visits, and then she was poured a bucket of cold water, and the more awake people gradually felt a little abnormal.

And when the emperor passed away, Concubine Zhen was buried, Zhen's family was confiscated, and Concubine Wu's elder brother was imprisoned for corruption of ink, Jia Lian, who was sent to Yangzhou with his family background, had already traveled south with his family.
