The days are advancing unhurriedly, and in a blink of an eye, late autumn has passed, and it is early winter.

The north wind was blowing, and the earth was covered with a layer of frost.

The Jia family kept a low profile for a month or two, and finally burst into a little joy.The eldest girl in the mansion finally got married, that's nothing, the key is that she married into an unusual family, she actually married into the second prince's mansion!This Coke ruined a group of people in Jia's house.All of a sudden, the lanterns and festoons were decorated, as if it was a festival, as if you were proud of marrying a daughter.

Dowry is indispensable, although the mansion is increasingly stretched, but it is so glorious to marry into the royal family, it is necessary to cobble together a lot of good things, even Jiamu brought out a lot of ladders and sent them over.After the Jia family kept a low profile for more than a month, their arrogance increased a lot, and even the Lin family didn't take it seriously.The servants who were sent were also very proud, completely different from the previous respectful look.

Lin Ruhai snorted secretly, thinking: The Taoists say that everyone in Jia's house has a pair of rich and noble eyes, it really is true!

It turned out that the second prince's original side concubine, Zhen Shi, was found out because of crimes committed by her mother's family, and because she herself hid a lot of stolen goods for her mother's family.Even the second prince was implicated, he couldn't help but lose his job, and was ordered to contemplate in the mansion for a month behind closed doors.The second prince's mansion lost the title of side concubine, and lost a lot of help from Zhen's mansion.Concubine Niu looked for the nobles in Beijing, and planned to find a family of noble eunuchs to fill the vacancy.Just when all the aristocratic families were gearing up and eager to try, there was a sudden shocking news.

The candidate has been decided, but it is Jia's mansion. It is said that the second prince chose it himself.

Hearing this news, everyone wondered secretly.At this time, Jia's mansion is being demoted and demoted, so it's too late for others to go far away?Why did the second prince take the initiative to throw an olive branch to the Jia family, some were disappointed for a while, some sighed and shook their heads secretly.Smart people have already seen that although the second prince has a lot of voices now, he has lost his fundamentals.Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the emperor doesn't like Jia's house anymore. At this moment, for such a little influence, leaving a bad impression before the Holy Majesty is simply not worth the candle!

Jia's mansion suffered quite a trauma, and he thought he would not be able to breathe for a long time?Not wanting to be able to climb the royal family at this moment, Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang were naturally grateful and grateful, and only recited "Amitabha".

Although many people don't understand, the second prince has other plans in his heart.There is some truth in what he thinks. Since ancient times, most people in the world are icing on the cake and learning more than giving charcoal in the snow.The position of side concubine is a concubine who is only lower than the concubine, and can be counted as a royal spy, and generally her background is not too low.If you choose in the family of Long En Zhengsheng or a prince with a higher stone, they may not really help you, it is better to find someone who can handle it.

He thought that Jia's family was at the end of the road at this time, and if he married a woman from his family, it would be regarded as bringing her family into his sphere of influence. Jia's family would definitely help him wholeheartedly and only follow his lead.Although the Jia family has declined, the so-called skinny camels are bigger than horses. After all, they are descendants of the four princes and eight princes, and they still have contacts with many nobles.What's more, the four big families are connected with each other, the Wang family has real power, and the Xue family has money, so getting their support, can't it be an unexpected harvest?

Helplessly, among the girls in Jia's mansion, only Yuan Chun was the right age. Although he was expelled from the palace and his reputation was damaged, he had no choice at the moment.

Xiao Zhelin also heard about this matter, but he really doesn't care about these trivial matters, the end of Jia's mansion is doomed.His second son didn't even have this bit of vision, so it's no wonder that others will be affected by it in the future.Maybe it's because of his cold nature, a certain softness in his heart has been completely occupied by one person.So what about the son, everyone chooses their own path, and they have to bear the consequences themselves.

Soon, members of the Xue family in Jinling also arrived in the capital.Mrs. Wang sent a team to pick her up at the ferry. Mrs. Wang Xue planned to live in the capital for a long time, so she moved almost everything from the old Jinling house.A lot of things for daily use were produced, including hundreds of utensils and servants alone, and dozens of carriages filled with various treasures and earthen instruments.In addition to the servants, chariots, and luggage sent by Mrs. Wang, it is extremely spectacular, stretching for several streets, attracting many passers-by to stop and watch.

When she came back, Mrs. Wang specially ordered people to pass by in front of Lin's residence, on the one hand showing off her might, and on the other hand boasting about her family's property and ostentation.In her opinion, there is no difference between the things in her sister's house and her own.I heard that when the Lin family first came to the capital, they were very low-key, with dozens of servants and an unknown number of carriages.She doesn't know the exact number, how much luggage can he carry with dozens of people?How can it be compared to one of Xue's hundred middle schools?

That's fine, but the Lin family still thinks highly of themselves, and Lin Ruhai takes advantage of his high position to lose face everywhere.Isn't it just to be a poor official? What's so good about it?These days, money is the truth?The old lady kept talking about the Lin family, saying that the Lin family was rich and powerful.Hmph, why didn't he take out the money already?It's just a show!Even if there is, it won't go much.The Xue family is a centuries-old imperial merchant, and has always had pearls like earth and gold like iron. It can only be said that the wealth accumulated over a hundred years is amazing!

What's more, now that Yuanchun has entered the prince's mansion, isn't it enough for Baoyu to rely on his sister for his future future?Don't count on the Lin family anymore!This time, I will let the old lady see which one can help her relatives in the house, and which one is really rich?

Lin Ruhai couldn't help shaking his head and sighing after returning to the mansion and listening to his servants report the matter.

At first glance, this matter is Mrs. Wang's hands and feet. It is really a woman's opinion to think that she cares about these things!Heh, the news will spread tomorrow, how many people in Beijing will secretly laugh at it?The headed wife of a big family has done such a naive thing, it's no wonder that it won't make people laugh out loud when it gets out!Fortunately, Yu'er has never lived in Jia's Mansion, and was raised in her own family since she was a child, so even if there are any bad remarks from her grandfather's family, it will not hinder her.

The members of Xue's family entered Jia's mansion and stayed in Lixiangyuan.Mrs. Wang was very happy, her daughter entered the prince's mansion, she felt proud, and her status in the mansion rose again, sometimes even Jia Mu didn't bother to agree, so she went to the Pear Fragrance Court with Jiaomen when she had nothing to do. Sister Xue Wang's gossip.Jia Baoyu also often went to play with his aunt and Xue Baochai, but he also forgot a lot about Sister Lin who used to talk about it.

Mrs. Wang is self-satisfied, but Jia's mother frowned secretly.Her second daughter-in-law looked pretty good before, but now her eyelids are getting shallower.What kind of family is the Xue family, so what if they have some stinky money, they can be compared with the Lin family.What's more, now that Lin Ruhai is in full bloom, his future is even brighter.Not to mention that Lin's family may not necessarily have less money than Xue's family, even if Lin Ruhai is really a poor official with no money, Baoyu's marriage to Daiyu is a hundred times better than marrying that girl from Xue's family.Fortunately, she is a young lady from a family background, but she can't even understand the truth of this idea!

Soon, Mother Jia picked up her niece Shi Xiangyun from her natal family, played with her sisters, and sent some women to pick up Daiyu on the grounds that she missed her granddaughter.At that time, Daiyu was checking the account books of each house in the meeting hall, distributing matching cards, and handling family affairs, while Lin Ruhai did not return from work in the government office.Daiyu hadn't been to Jia's mansion for a long time, and at this time, the decent woman next to her grandmother came to invite her, so she couldn't refuse, so she handed over the housework to Nanny Song, and took Mo Lan, Nanny Qin and a few little girls to board the car. and go.

Entering the house, Mother Jia was lying on the kang smilingly watching her grandchildren playing.Jia Baoyu was pulling a muscular and beautiful girl and kept calling her sister, the two seemed to be looking at something.Seeing Daiyu coming in, Jia Baoyu threw the Jiulianhuan in his hand and shouted: "Sister, you are here. This is the new Sister Bao. Have you seen it yet?"

As Jia Baoyu spoke, he rushed towards Daiyu, but before he could reach her, he was stopped by Nanny Qin.

Jia Baoyu timidly withdrew his foot, not daring to go forward.Every time Lin Daiyu came to Jia's mansion, she brought Nanny Qin with her. Jia Baoyu had known her for a long time, and knew she was not easy to mess with, so he dared not be presumptuous.Just looking at Daiyu's eyes could not help showing a bit of sympathy, and thought to himself: Sister Lin is such a lovely person, with such a father, and such a vicious nanny, why is it so hard?I heard that this nanny was bestowed by the Holy Spirit, and she should not be beaten or replaced at will.Wouldn't it be so pitiful to suffer every day!

Daiyu didn't know what Jia Baoyu was thinking, seeing that there were new faces in the room, needless to say the Yingchun sisters, they had seen each other before.Shi Xiangyun and Xue Baochai are new faces, so they have to get to know each other again.They met each other and exchanged gifts. Mother Jia took Daiyu into her arms and asked her how she was doing, whether she was still taking medicine or something.Daiyu answered them one by one, some of which were true and some false.

Although she is young, she can still tell the difference between sincerity and hypocrisy. When people treat her with sincerity, she will naturally treat others with sincerity, but if someone coaxes her with false words, she will naturally be hypocritical.In short, I can't suffer, this is what my uncle said, and she has always believed in what my uncle said, second only to my father.

Just as Xue Wangshi and Mrs. Wang are coming, as elders, Daiyu is rare.After accepting two purses and a few little golden scorpions as presents, Daiyu glanced at them and handed them to Mo Lan, and Mo Lan handed them to a little girl to accept.Mrs. Xue Wang squinted at the little girl a few times, then took Daiyu to look at her with a smile on her face, and said with a smile: "I heard from your aunt earlier that Miss Lin was born handsome and obedient. When I saw her today, it is true. Much stronger than our chai'er."

Daiyu lowered her head and said, "I'm ashamed, you've overrated me!"

Jia Mu said with a smile: "It's just right for my aunt to come. I'm bored. Let's play cards and let their children play in the room." Then she turned and told a maid in pink beside her, "Mandarin duck, prepare some delicate food." , fresh tea fruit, so good to bring my brothers and sisters there, be careful, don't touch it!"

Yuanyang answered "Yes", and asked people to bring Daiyu and others in first, and then sent someone to set up a card table, intending to settle down Jia Mu, Xue Wang and others before doing the affairs of the young masters.Jia Mu waved her hand and said: "Don't worry about it here, there are little girls on the left and right, nothing can go wrong, you go in and watch them! They are all seven or eight-year-old children, but are they naughty?" The pointed one glanced at Yuanyang, and said: "Yu'er is not in good health, let Baoyu take care of her more. If something happens in our house, I can't explain it to my uncle!"

Yuanyang nodded and said, "Don't worry, old lady!"

After saying that, she went in, Mrs. Wang glanced in with a little worry, and exchanged glances with Mrs. Xue.Seeing the actions of the two, Jia's mother twitched the corners of her mouth slightly, and then said with a smile: "There are mandarin ducks who can see that nothing will happen, come, come, leave them alone, let's play cards!"
