Aristocratic family's career in the Red Chamber

After dinner, the maids brought tea and hot towels for wiping, and waited carefully for the masters to rinse their mouths before quietly leaving. Then another group of maids offered Pu'er to nourish the stomach, and then quietly retreated.Everyone drank tea quietly, only waiting for the family members above to speak before daring to make a sound.

Jia Daishan is very satisfied with such an atmosphere. His Jia family started with only two generations, and in the eyes of those big families that have been passed down for a hundred years, they are just nouveau riche.If the Jia family is to continue in the family and prosper in the circle of power and aristocrats, the rules are the most important thing. Thinking of his current status and power, he would occasionally go out for dinner and meet those so-called relatives and noble families. Being vaguely looked down upon by the other party, Jia Daishan felt aggrieved in his heart, hated and jealous - hated that the other party was obviously not as powerful as himself, but dared to look down on him with a bit of fame, and was even more jealous that the other party could pass on the family for a hundred years, and the descendants of the aristocratic family would be prosperous .

It would be great if his family could live up to his descendants and pass it on from generation to generation without failing for a hundred years! Bless you, but you changed the elder and younger, otherwise, where would he be in trouble now?Aristocratic families, seniors and young are orderly, and there are differences between the mother and daughter~ It is also a long-term knot, and after being frustrated for a while, Jia Daishan quickly put this matter aside, and said with a smile: "I heard the news earlier, Brother Hai from the Lin family But after passing the Shu Jishi exam, I thought I was going to enter the Imperial Academy, but it didn't happen. Today, after the decree came down, I was admitted to the Imperial Academy as an editor. This is a happy event. Madam, you can buy me a generous gift Send it, but let others know our intentions." He took a sip of tea with his head down, thought of something, and hurriedly added, "The old lady Lin seems to be sick, so let's send more herbs." After thinking for a while , felt inappropriate again, and said, "Brother Hai is a filial person. If Mrs. Lin is not in good health, even if he enters the Imperial Academy, he may not be happy. That's all, he doesn't stick to the etiquette, and he is close to the medicinal materials." Send the tonics first." After finishing speaking, she glanced at Jia Min meaningfully, and it happened that she was also pinching the handkerchief anxiously, and the eyes of father and daughter met, which made Jia Min blush and lowered her head. I dare not look at him.Jia Daishan was in a good mood and couldn't help smiling.Jia Daishan is extremely proud of his daughter's marriage.The Lin family has been a family of officials since the previous dynasty, and the family tradition is very good. In troubled times, they served as the founding emperor of the country, up to the marquis. His early death did not pave the way for Lin Ruhai, and Jia Min feared that he would never have the chance to marry such an elegant and scholarly family like the Lin family.Lin Ruhai is a talent for exploring flowers, and he is a good person in the world. He will achieve extraordinary things in the future. If Jia Min marries him, he will be rich and honored for a lifetime. The Jia family will benefit endlessly from having such a good son-in-law. How much change can a highly prestigious in-law in the family bring to Jia's honorable reputation--such in-laws cannot help but be ignored by Jia Daishan.

Jia Zheng exclaimed, and said joyfully, "Ruhai has actually passed the examination of a good scholar? That's right, he is a talented person. How can he be so rare in the examination of a mere good scholar? He should be congratulated very much." , Although the Hanlin Academy is poor, it is noble." It's just faint, and it's unavoidable that there is still some jealousy. Lin Ruhai is one year younger than him, but now, he has already been in high school, riding a horse through the streets, and going to Qionglin to enter the Hanlin banquet. Mansion, and myself, up to now, is nothing more than a white body.

With such a contrast, Jia Daishan was also somewhat dissatisfied with the youngest son, so he just said a few words to him under pressure: "Brother Hai is beautiful in appearance and outstanding in talent and learning. In the palace examination, with his talent and learning, he could have made further progress and won the second place in the list." , but after the emperor saw him with his own eyes, he said that no one else was suitable for the title of Tanhua except him, so he was appointed as Tanhua. A few days ago, when we talked about the assessment of a good scholar, the emperor actually said I remembered him, and asked a few more questions. It can be seen that Hai Geer has fallen into the eyes of the emperor, and he will have a bright future in the future." After admiring for a while, looking at Jia Zheng, he hated iron for being weak, "He is still the same as my father. Passed away, brought up by a widowed mother, but he is so promising, second child, you...you have to ask him for advice in the future!" In the end, it is the son who has always loved him, and although he is disappointed, he is still reluctant to say goodbye talk.If so, Jia Zheng also blushed, and nodded again and again. He felt embarrassed and ashamed. Jia Daishan was finally relieved. Although the second child was unlucky and failed the exam several times, he was humble, open-minded and polite. It lived up to his expectations.As for Jia Amnesty, Jia Daishan never even thought about it.

Jia's mother was not happy that Jia Daishan was so tall and Lin Ruhai belittled Jia Zheng, especially when she saw Jia Zheng bowing his head in shame, she felt even more uncomfortable and panicked, she immediately laughed and said: "Brother Hai has such good fortune, it's his luck. It's just that I'm also worried about it. The old lady of the Lin family went there early. Brother Hai has been concentrating on his studies all along, and seldom pays attention to the banquet and socializing. After so many years, the Lin family’s connections have long been distant, and Brother Hai seldom interacts with others. I’m afraid that he won’t be used to this officialdom for a while, and it will be difficult for him to make friends with others.” The family's marriage is also full of dissatisfaction. In her opinion, with Jia Min's status as the daughter of the Duke, her delicate beauty, and her talent and learning are enough to be a concubine, but she was promised by Jia Dai. What about Tanhualang, a Lin family that has lost even the title of the ancestor, with so little help around him, how can he rely on the Rongguo Mansion to promote him in the future?It is said that marrying a daughter-in-law and marrying a low-married girl to marry a high-ranking daughter, her family is good, but she married the daughter of Jin Zunyugui to a low-level family. If she hadn't spoken out several times to object, Jia Daishan would have resolutely beaten her back, and Jia's mother would have left early. This marriage!For Lin Ruhai, Jia's mother was even more dissatisfied. How could Jia Daishan praise him to the sky, but demote his beloved young son to the ground?

Jia Daishan just felt that she was just worrying, and said with a smile: "Have you never seen Hai Ge'er's behavior in front of the imperial court? Demeanor, profound background. This can be handled freely in front of the imperial court, and you are still afraid of these daily social activities? Worrying~"

Mother Jia didn't take it seriously: "Although the emperor was calm, the Lin family moved back to Suzhou after Mrs. Lin left. Geer Hai hasn't been to Beijing for many years. In the past, the contacts made by Mrs. Lin have long been alienated. Over the years, Beijing has changed. How much? Can he know all of them? Gifts and banquets, which one can offend people if you accidentally make a small mistake? You also said that Mrs. Lin is not doing well now, and Geer Hai doesn’t even have a helper around her. Are you so sure that he can handle these things well while studying and working?"

Jia Daishan was speechless, so Jia's mother became happy, thought for a while, and smiled: "After all, it is a good thing that Hai Ge'er passed the exam, but no matter how bad Mrs. Lin is, she should take this opportunity to hold a banquet to invite relatives and friends." Get together, get in touch, between relatives and friends, you can only be close if you come and go often. If Hai Geer is too busy, let the second child go to help and say hello. Hai Geer is a scholar, and the second child also likes it Reading, the two of you will get along well." It can also let people know that Lin Ruhai also has a brother-in-law, Jia Zheng, who also likes to study and is humble and motivated.

When Jia Daishan thinks about it, it is indeed not bad. Mother Jia has considered what should be considered. Most of Lin Ruhai's friends are scholars and noble families. Jia Zheng used to know more people and broaden his network. It is really good!Then he agreed: "You can write a letter to the Lin family later and talk about it."

Jia's mother readily agreed, and Jia Zheng lowered his head and smiled, and took a sip of tea.Mother Jia's goal was achieved, and her mood improved, she smiled and said to Jia Min: "Although you haven't been married yet, after all, the marriage contract between the two families has been settled, and you will also prepare some gifts for Mrs. Lin later, regardless of the severity, it is also your heart. "No matter how dissatisfied the marriage has been settled, Mother Jia still loves her daughter Jia Min, and naturally hopes that she can please her future mother-in-law.Being a daughter-in-law is different from being a girl at home. If you are angry, let your mother-in-law like it first, and then life will be easier later.

Jia Min was so ashamed that she didn't dare to look at people, so she answered in a low voice and thought to herself, there are still some high-quality materials in Jia's mother's room, but I can take them out to make forehead wipes and send them...

Jia Daishan, Jia Zheng, etc. all laughed when they saw her like this. Mother Jia felt sore in her heart. No wonder she said that girls are extroverted.Suddenly he was in a bad mood, and he became unhappy with the Lin family, and Zhang Shi, who was sitting with a smile on the other side, looked particularly disgusting...
