Aristocratic family's career in the Red Chamber

Jia Shen's feet fluttered all the way to the backyard in ecstasy, as if if he took a step slower, everything that happened just now would be shattered like a dream. The surprise came too suddenly, and Jia Shen wondered if everything was his own. A sweet dream? ——He needs Mrs. Zhang to share all this with him and tell him that what he just experienced is true.

He was full of joy, when Mrs. Zhang heard the news that the servants rushed to report, it was like a thunderbolt, and everyone was stunned. , the corners of the mouth curled up uncontrollably to the back of the ears.

Just now, when Jia Amnesty went to receive an order to thank him, because he was dissatisfied with Jia Zheng, he didn't want him to go out, so he didn't even take Mrs. Zhang with him, but went to the front alone, leaving Mrs. Zhang to deal with Jia Mu, Jia Zheng and others .At that time, Mrs. Zhang didn't know why the emperor rewarded her. Even if she knew that it was not a bad thing to be rewarded, she still felt a little uneasy. Facing Jia Mu, Jia Zheng, who wanted to go out and show her face in front of the people in the palace, Mrs. Zhang Being pressed hard at every step, he almost didn't stop anyone.

At that time, what Jiamu Jiazheng said was as if she didn't let them go to the front, she was seeking money and killing her, and she was disrespectful to the emperor.

Jia Zheng even helped Jia's mother, and sneered at him: "Sure enough, the family is not a family anymore. My sister-in-law regards me as an outsider. When my father was alive, when there was a reward from the palace, didn't my father receive the whole family?" People from the house went to receive an order to thank each other, but when they arrived at the elder brother and sister-in-law, it was rather simple, and the elder brother ran away alone, without even noticing us, and still felt that the emperor bestowed such an honor, we were not worthy to go." If they didn't have their own eyeliner in the mansion, such a big matter would have been covered up.

Mrs. Zhang really thought so in her heart, and she couldn't tell if it wasn't true. She was so angry that she said with a twitch, "Second Brother, this is a serious statement. What do you mean we deliberately hid it from you and the old lady? You guys Don't you all know this? If we want to deliberately conceal it, how can you know about it? As for the matter of receiving the order to thank you, the master is the head of the family in this mansion. It is reasonable for him to go to the front to receive the order. The second younger brother also said that he separated his family and went out, so he still wants to be the lord of the Rongguo Mansion in front of the Rongguo Mansion's family, and lead the glory of the Rongguo Mansion?!" He gritted his teeth secretly, how many times he cleaned in the mansion, he didn't expect Well, this old woman is not small, and there are still fish that slipped through the net. I will check it again later, and I have to find out the nail.

Jia Zheng was so angry that his complexion turned pale. Mother Jia leaned on the dragon head stick and sneered: "The eldest is a good wife. She dares to speak so eloquently in front of her mother-in-law. Instead, she talked about my uncle. What's the matter, my son has separated. , isn’t your brother-in-law’s younger brother? He’s no longer from Rongguo Mansion? Let me tell you, this is my son, my flesh and blood. As long as I’m here, he can come to Rongguo Mansion whenever he wants, as long as he wants! I'm not dead yet, you can't cover the sky with one hand in this mansion!" While letting Zhang get out of the way quickly, "When the emperor thinks of the mansion, he must remember the old man, the second child is the old man's beloved young son, so he should go to the front too See you, thank the emperor in front of people, we are not as contemptuous as you, the emperor Long En, when he came to the mansion."

Mrs. Zhang's complexion changed instantly, and she said anxiously and angrily: "Old lady, please be careful. When did the master and I despise the emperor's grace? This word must be spread. The old lady doesn't care about our master, but cares about Rongguo Mansion." More than a hundred lives? The honor and disgrace of the entire Jia clan?!" Treating the emperor's kindness slowly is disrespect to the emperor, and if word spreads, the entire Rongguo Mansion will suffer!

Mother Jia was so angry that she blurted out what she said, and she regretted it when she calmed down, but how could she admit defeat in front of Mrs. Zhang, snorted, and said: "If you didn't mean to be contemptuous, why are you stopping us? Such a big country In the palace, there is only one master to receive an order to thank you, how can it be proper?!" As he said, he was about to move forward with Jia Zheng Wang, but was stopped by Zhang's dodge.

"Don't make things difficult for me, old lady." Mrs. Zhang said pitifully, with her feet firmly blocking the road, and the girls behind her were lined up in three rows. Jia Mu, Jia Zheng and others couldn't get through at all. Facing their angry eyes, Mrs. Zhang He just said, "Master has already gone to receive the order. It's fine for the old lady to be dressed in auspicious clothes. The second brother and the second younger sister will follow out in such a suit, so they are not afraid of collision?"

Jia Zhengwang's complexion was very ugly.They came here today, apparently to see Jia Mu, but in fact, it was just because Jia Zheng was unhappy about Zhou Juren's affairs, he came here specially to ask Jia Mu to give Jia Amnesty eye drops, and he was only wearing ordinary clothes. Knowing that such a big event will happen, it's a good thing now, even if you want to go out and get some light.

Seeing Zhang's condescending eyes in her auspicious uniform, she was almost overwhelmed by jealousy and resentment, she rubbed her stomach and said sharply: "Isn't it just a suit of clothes, what's the matter? Sister-in-law is dressed in auspicious clothes, why don't you go to the front to receive the order? As long as we are sincere, who will hold on to these details?"

Zhang looked at her out of the corner of his eyes: "What my brother and sister said is true, these details are the most important thing. In terms of etiquette, my brother and sister are also from a wealthy family, so they don't know the importance of rules? Why did the court set up the Ministry of Rites? Isn't it just to let the world know the etiquette? Look at what my siblings are saying now, clothes don't matter? Didn't you wear a normal uniform during the palace celebration?" Suddenly he covered his mouth again, and sneered, "I forgot , with the current orders of younger siblings, they still cannot enter the palace to pay respects to the Empress Empress... I made the wrong example."

What he said, not only Wang's face changed, Jia Zheng's forehead was bulging with veins because of shame and anger.Jiamu leaned on the dragon head stick and pointed at Mrs. Zhang tremblingly: "You, what do you mean by that?!"

A woman's imperial order is usually sealed according to her husband's grade. Mrs. Zhang said that Wang's imperial order is of a low rank. Isn't she just slandering and scolding Jia Zheng?How can Jia's mother, who treats Jia Zheng as an eyeball, bear it?

There is still work to be done on the surface, and everyone knows it well. On the surface, Mrs. Zhang has always done well. She raised her eyebrows, glanced at Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang provocatively, and smiled lightly: "I don't mean anything, I just said It’s just the truth, old lady, what’s wrong with you? Why are you suddenly angry?”

Mother Jia was about to faint from anger.

At this moment, the servant hurried over.Seeing the people running over, Mrs. Zhang was in a good mood, and said to the three of them with a smile: "Don't worry about the old lady and the second brother. It seems that the master has already received the order to thank you, so I don't need to bother you."

Mother Jia kept a straight face and said nothing, while Jia Zheng supported her, she remained silent, just waiting for someone to tell what the emperor's reward was.

Mrs. Zhang is not in the mood to argue with them anymore, she is also worried.

The servant came over and knelt on the ground with a smile on his face. Everyone knew that it must be a good thing, and he heard the servant say loudly: "Congratulations to the old lady, the emperor has a reward, jade Ruyi tribute satin pearls It's a good compliment, I heard that our uncle also has a decree in the yamen, it's a good thing. The little one is here, congratulations to you!"

Mrs. Zhang couldn't believe her ears, and exclaimed in surprise: "Really? The emperor's reward is for our master? Is it to praise our master's ability to teach his children?"

The servant kowtowed to congratulate Mrs. Zhang, cheered and said, "I heard what Eunuch Chen in the palace said on the spot, can it be false? The emperor praised the master for his loyalty to the king. That jade Ruyi is beautiful in color, and the satin is beautiful. It's dazzling."

"Aiyo, aiyo." Mrs. Zhang rubbed her chest, her heart ached with joy, and hurriedly folded her hands together, thanking God, "Amitabha, it is the blessing of the Bodhisattva, our master has been so loyal, and today it is finally rewarded." Your majesty is wise, your majesty is wise!" Then he sent orders around, "Hurry up and order the long house to send an extra month's money, and everyone will be happy together."

The servant kneeling on the ground jumped for joy, but still said: "Madam, the master has already rewarded you."

Mrs. Zhang waved her hand indifferently: "What the master rewarded was what the master rewarded, and what I rewarded was mine. This reward will not go into the public account, and I will pay it out of my own house!" Sweeping across his face, he said with a smile, "No matter how much money is spent on such a happy event, I will be happy!"

The servants don't think there is too much money, Jia She rewarded it once, and the Zhang family still rewarded it. After calculating this month, they got more money than the old ones. They just thought that the mansion was honored and these servants went out. He also has face, and now he has received practical benefits, and he is even more delighted. He kowtowed to Mrs. Zhang and congratulated: "The old lady is very lucky, congratulations to the old lady!" The smile on Jia Mu's face was not to mention how stiff.

The crowd stopped blocking the road, and when they returned to Jiamu's place, Mrs. Zhang served her tea herself, and said with a smile, "on such a happy day today, my daughter-in-law will serve you tea. The government doesn't have this honor, so it's all thanks to you."

In front of Jia Zheng, Mrs. Zhang's words made Jia's mother so angry that she wished she could snatch the cup of tea and pour it on Mrs. Zhang's face!Mother Jia glanced at Jia Zheng's black and blue face, sighed silently, waited for Mrs. Zhang to stand holding the tea for a while, and then slowly stretched out her hand, and was about to take it, but who knew that Mrs. Zhang withdrew her hand suddenly. Looking left and right, he said: "The tea is not very hot, what do the servants do, why did they bring this kind of tea, it's strange that the old lady doesn't like it, why don't you hurry up and change it?"

Seeing her acting like this, Jia Mu's eyes immediately bulged up. She looked like she wished she could kill someone, not to mention how scary it was.Mrs. Zhang taught her girl a lesson in her room, did she really think that Jia She received a reward, so it would be a big deal?Just about to scold, Jia Amnesty rolled the door curtain like a gust of wind and rushed in, beaming all over his body, and shouted to Mrs. Zhang after rushing in, "Did you hear that? The emperor praised me, I am loyal to the king's affairs, and teach my son to be respectful." Fang, brother Hu also has a will, I thought it would be a matter of time to get promoted. My good wife, thanks to you for giving me a good son!"

Mrs. Zhang listened, her brows and eyes curled up, and she said in a gentle voice: "It's not because of me, it's because of you who taught him carefully, otherwise Brother Hu would be able to be where he is today? I'm just a house girl..."

Jia Amnesty just didn't listen, and regardless of the other people present, he grabbed her hand: "How many housewives, how many have given birth to Tanhualang? How can they teach their sons so well? It's true that you have a wife like you. The blessings I have cultivated in my lifetime."

Zhang's body trembled, the tip of her nose became sore, and there were faint tears in her eyes, she turned her head to avoid Jia She's sight, and said in a low voice, "Look at what the master said, how can I afford it."

Jia She only looked at her tenderly: "You deserve it, you deserve it!" He held her hand even tighter, "You gave birth to a good son for me, and your family is famous."

The couple were full of affection and joy, and they didn't care what the occasion was. Jia Zhengwang's heart was sore and painful, and Jia's mother held back her breath, patted the table and shouted: "Look at what you are doing!" It looks like they are all about to become grandparents, so how shameless are you in front of servants?"

Jia Amnesty is feeling very emotional, how could he be in a good mood after being yelled at by Jia's mother?Immediately poked his neck back and pushed back: "Why am I shameless? I just had a few words with my wife, what's wrong? If you are sensible, you should not listen to evil or look at evil, where are the rules in the house! Mother, today You have such a good day, do you have to live with me?"

Jia's mother never expected that Jia She would dare to contradict him like this, panting and cursing: "You, you rebellious son."

Jia She is really not in the mood to quarrel with her, if he continues to talk to her, his good mood today will be completely defeated, he said hastily: "I came to announce the good news to the old lady, your sons and grandsons are all honored, and you also have a smile on your face. Just not? My son has something else to do, so I went back with my wife first, two younger brothers and younger siblings, you should spend good time with your mother, and celebrate at home in the mansion at night, so you can come too." Without waiting for Jia Zhengwang to answer, Shi Shi Then he took Zhang away.

Mother Jia watched them walk out of the house, her eyes darkened, she leaned on the back of the chair and gasped for breath, almost fainted, Jia Zheng Wang screamed in fright: "Old lady? Old lady?" !"

Jia Amnesty pretended not to know, and took Mrs. Zhang to sit together. The couple happily talked about Jia Hu's childhood one by one.

"This child has been smart and considerate since he was a child."

"Smart and sensible, he can learn everything quickly, and he can draw inferences from one instance."

"The longer he is, the more handsome he is. He is one of the best in Beijing. Who wouldn't say that I have a good son?"

"He has a good temper, I don't know whose girl will be cheaper in the future..."
