The eldest brother of the Lin family in the Red Chamber

The marriage between Rong Jia and Daiyu still needs to be discussed again. Firstly, the two children are really young, and secondly, Daiyu is now the Queen's adoptive daughter, bearing the title of Emperor Ji. This marriage cannot be left to Lin Let the two be the masters.But the wedding date of Rong Xi and Ying Chun is getting closer and closer.Yingchun was getting older, and it would be shameful to procrastinate, and Rong Mingqian was in Beijing at the moment, with him presiding over the overall situation, the marriage would be more dignified.

Rong Xi is the eldest grandson of the eldest family, and the future head of the Rong family. The Rong Bai family runs the family well. Although it is a continuation, it is also generous. Tea, mutton wine, etc. were filled and packed to Jia's house. In comparison, the dowry for Yingchun was simply shabby.

The bride's dowry has always been at least half of the dowry, but Rong Xi had the Ouyang family at the beginning, and the dowry is not easy to go beyond the first wife, but Mrs. Xing got this, as if she had received an imperial edict, and became more and more frugal. The treasury was gradually full.Mother Jia likes smart children, and when she saw Yingchun, she felt that she was not as good as others, and naturally she didn't care. When the wedding day approached, when she came to add makeup, she saw the dowry, which was almost a shabby dowry, and said angrily: "Madam, you It's Yingyatou's mother, and this is the dowry you prepared? Where are you going to marry as Yingyatou? Are you going to let her stand up in her husband's house? Are you going to let our family live in Beijing?"

Mrs. Xing has always been clumsy and tongue-tied, and she knows how to quibble: "The old lady's remark really pissed me off, don't we want her to marry well? It's just that if we have no land and no money, we rely on the master's Salary and my 20 taels of monthly money to live, how much can I save? I want to sell the pot and sell the iron, so that the girl can marry decently, and there must be a pot to sell, and iron to sell."

Mother Jia was so angry that she had nothing to say, Madam Wang frowned and said: "The eldest lady said this, are you blaming the old lady?"

Jia Amnesty had already been drunk, and his words became more and more absurd: "Second wife, don't provoke me, this matter has nothing to do with you! Don't you always ignore others and don't care about other people's life or death? You don't have the right to talk about the room!"

Now, even Baoyu couldn't listen anymore, but Jia Amnesty was his uncle after all, so he could only be anxious and speechless.

Mother Jia pointed at his nose, trembling all over: "Boss, are you accusing me of what you said to your daughter-in-law? Let me tell you, how is this family going to live? Just divide it up! Then you will have land and money." , I want to see how you buy your daughter's dowry!"

Mrs. Wang didn't want to separate the family so clearly, and Jia Zheng was also concerned about his reputation, so the husband and wife persuaded together: "The old lady is happy and angry, the elder doesn't mean that."

Jia Amnesty was really drunk, pointed at Jia Zheng and said, "Why didn't I mean that? Second child, don't take advantage of it and act like a good boy. Feel your conscience and think about it. In our family, whoever is the elder and who is the younger Who should be the master of the house, and who should sit in a small yard and swallow your anger? If you can't figure it out yourself, you might as well go out and ask someone! You don't say a word and take advantage of all the good things. I really want to tell you, this family , It’s time to share! Your Baoyu’s new cloak is our monthly payment for a month or two, why don’t you say it? Who is going too far.”

Jia Zheng turned pale: "Brother, why do you need to say so much, this is not the case in the first place!"

Jia Mu said angrily: "Good! Very good!" She shouted again, "Yuanyang, please come here and call everyone in the clan. It is not a big deal for our family to lose face. Let's divide it up clearly, so as not to say that I am partial. Baoyu!"

Unexpectedly, Yingchun made such a big fuss about her dowry, and she wanted to persuade her, but she was not a person who could speak well, nor did she dare to speak out, so she could only sit on her bed and wipe her tears for a while.But the two maids beside her, Xiuju and Siqi, could not hold back the smile on their lips even though their heads were lowered.

For Yingchun, this matter, like her marriage, is a turning point.

The patriarch of the Jia family was Jia Zhen, and the rest of the clan explained that they depended on Rongning and Ningfu for their livelihood, so naturally they didn't dare to say anything more.Jia's mother also seemed very fair, and made the accounts clear, saying that Jia Zhen was a junior, and she could only obediently respond to Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng, and listened to what Jia's mother said.

Jia's mother is also fair. All the family property, house deeds, and land deeds are liquidated one by one, and one is divided into three. She has only one share, and it will be divided after death. She continues to live in the main church with her youngest son.

This seems fair, but Jia Lian has something to say in his heart, they are the eldest sons, they should be the heads of the family in the Rongguo Mansion, there is no reason for the successors to share the same family property with the second son, if it is true, it is because the boss loves the younger brother .What's more, it is estimated that the share in Jiamu's hand will only be left to Baoyu, and their eldest wife is still fighting for the top?

Now that Wang Xifeng is not around, no one can say whether the amount in the public account is right or not, and no one dares to mention the unfairness. Mother Jia prefers Baoyu and Sister Feng most, but Sister Feng is not around, so Baoyu stands there. Seeing the sadness of the second sister's marriage, 12 points are very cute.

Jia Lian sighed again and again when she thought of Sister Feng's happiness.If Sister Feng and Brother Wei were together...

It's a pity that this is just a hypothetical, now in the mansion is Second Sister You, whom he tried every means to ask Jia Mu to accept, who lives in the Grand View Garden, in the Jin Building where Yingchun used to live, with a little maid serving beside her. Then, Jia's mother put down her words, and after the family filial piety was over, Jia Lian was allowed to formally accept her.Since she lives in the garden, for her own sake, she doesn't want Jia Amnesty to fall out with Jia Mu.After all, she was protected by Jia Mu alone. If because of this, Jia Mu also separated from Jia Lian and forgot about her, what is her future?Lian's second grandma's family is gaining power now!

It's just that there is really no room for her to speak in this situation, and she doesn't even have the qualifications to stand in that ancestral hall.

Jia Lian's heart moved, remembering that Sister Feng had mentioned the ancestral tomb property in Jinling.Keqing died that day, and Sister Feng and her had always been on good terms. In her dream, she dreamed of Keqing saying to her: "Our family is now cooking oil with a fire, and the brocade is fresh. It's just that the feast must be scattered, and the water will overflow. Instead, we need to set up more farm buildings near the ancestral tombs, so that the sacrifices and supplies will all come from here, and the family school will also be set up here." After hearing Keqing's words, Sister Feng really bought a lot at the ancestral tomb in Jinling. Tian Chan unconsciously gave Jia Zhen a wink.

Jia Zhen has always been a master who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun. Jia Zheng loves to be noble, so naturally he can't get along with him, but Jia pardons Jia Lian and his son, who are equally ridiculous and rude, and they are very familiar with each other. Naturally, he is willing to help Jia Lian With this thought, I kept my mind on dividing the property and gave it to Jia Lian to choose first.

Jia's mother's narrowed eyes opened a lot after hearing what Jia Lian wanted. She looked at Lian'er carefully for a while, and then said slowly, "Okay."

These lands are not even entered by officials.Then they fell down, and their children and grandchildren went home to study and work in agriculture, and there was also a setback.It's just that Jia Lian, as the grandson of the head of the house, will also inherit the title in the future. They should be responsible for the sacrifice. It is reasonable for him to want this, even she can't refuse it explicitly.

Now Jia Lian remembered Sister Feng's kindness.It's just that I can't bear the gentleness and carelessness of Second Sister You, but I can't do without Sister Feng's ability and generosity. It's really a dilemma.

The separation of the Rongguo Mansion is a big deal in their own eyes, and they have been tossing about for several days, but in the eyes of others, it is just a joke in Beijing: "That Rongguo Mansion is really absurd!"

The Jingyuan Hou's Mansion also heard some rumors - who made Lin Mo work in the household department, he sneered: "Brother Xi is going to take the exam next year, it's best not to stay in Beijing, let him go out quickly, no matter where he goes, otherwise This Yue family can feel good about him. But he has such a temper, if he only recognizes Ouyang's family as the Yue family, he doesn't have to worry about being taken advantage of."

"Second sister has a good temper, so brother doesn't have to worry about Suicheng." Daiyu said, her tone was listless, obviously she didn't expect an accident in Rongguo Mansion.Since ancient times, the tree fell and the monkeys scattered, and they always started to mess up from the inside of the tree. I used to hear the girls talking nonsense, saying that the Rongguo Mansion would actually steal their own home, except that I was secretly glad that I left there early and didn't have to suffer such humiliation. , and more of a sigh in my heart, the heyday of flowers in my grandmother's house is about to pass.

Lin Mo said: "I'm worried about what Suicheng is doing? This kid is spoiled by his father. He can do anything but study. I don't like his temper. I have to worry about whether my second cousin will be bullied by this kid. Her Temper." Seeing that Daiyu was still not in high spirits, he pushed her and said, "Che'er should be back later, ask him if he brought you anything fun."

Lin Che and Daiyu were about the same age. When he first came to Beijing, he angered Daiyu a lot because of being troubled by the Rongguo Mansion. He was afraid that she would trouble his brother. It was only afterward that he confessed his heart and made him understand. The older sister is a beautiful girl with a bodhisattva heart, so the two get along very well. Whenever Lin Che comes back, she often goes to Swallow Pier to have a look at Daiyu's body, prescribe some medicinal recipes, and tell her Tell stories and buy knickknacks like the clay figurines and pinwheels outside.Daiyu couldn't go out by herself, and felt that what her younger brother said was extraordinarily novel, and the two of them became closer.

So he laughed and said: "Third brother goes out in such a cold day, I don't dare to tire him, first go to see if the soup is ready for him in the kitchen, and he will come back later to warm himself up. Brother also drink a bowl?"

Lin Mo readily agreed.

Jing Xian didn't know Rong Xi and Ying Chun very well, so she was just a matchmaker, but she was pregnant, so it was inconvenient for her to go to the ceremony in person, so she called Nurse Cui, who was by her side, and asked Daiyu : "You are waiting to be married now. There are everyone in their house, and there is also a demon king in the world. You don't have to go to marry him. Anyway, we will do it when the ceremony arrives."

Daiyu had a meeting with Yingchun sisters, originally she had thought of going to give her a wedding, but she was a little disappointed when she heard what Jingxian said, but she nodded obediently.

Jingxian looked at her expression: "If you really want to go, it's okay to go. It's just that your status is different now, you don't feel it, but now you are the adopted daughter of the queen. What's so good about the Empress Dowager, but other people don't think so, your status is different, they look at you, can you stay the same as before?"

Daiyu recalled that Jing Xian didn't like being called Junjun, but liked being called Miss Kongda, so she also sighed: "Sister-in-law doesn't know, this second sister, she is a person who can't make her own way. In the past, sisters They get together to write poems and ask her to limit the rhyme, but she only uses lottery. This marriage is a lottery for her. She has suffered for more than ten years, and it is rare to change her luck. I want to give it away. .”

"If you really want to go, bring Nongyun, Xueyan, Yunchu, and your elder brother's song. Then ask the palace to send an angel to see you off." Jingxian knows the rules very well, "Nongyun !"

Nongyun leaned over to answer.

"If someone's mouth is broken, don't worry about it, just slap him and say that I asked you to slap him."

"Yes, Concubine Hou."

"The eldest son of the Rongguo Mansion has never been able to live in the Rongxi Hall in his whole life, and his girl married a man named Rong Xi. I don't know if the head of the family will blush." ​​Jing Xian sneered.

Xi'er smiled and said, "Grandma thinks, she has lived with a cheeky face for decades, so how can a thick-skinned person know how to write the word blush?"

Jing Xian pursed her lips: "It's a pity that Rong Xi is stubborn, otherwise, why would he not be able to choose and cultivate this relative. It's just that sister Ouyang is lucky to have promised such a caring person. She has the heart, but she doesn't." Resist with strength."
