Aristocratic family's career in the Red Chamber

This is a majestic palace, a place where the supreme imperial power is concentrated, with red walls and yellow tiles, carved beams and flying eaves, here is the greatest wealth in the world, and the dirtiest darkness in the world.

Here is the palace!

No one can tell how much blood is hidden behind the magnificence, how many wronged souls are buried-here, the crime is never the past, it happens now, and it will never stop in the future.

In the empty palace, there are only three people, the queen and the prince, and Yuan Chun at the moment. In the tall and spacious room, the empress and the prince are high and heavy. Yuan Chun simply kneels, otherwise he must lose his composure , also frightened tremblingly.

The queen's scrutinizing eyes never left her. Seeing that she was so useless, she frowned and glanced at the prince.The prince shook his head invisibly at her, but he said to Yuan Chun with a pleasant face, "It's hard for you to inquire about such a private matter, but I never thought of it. Well done, you are so loyal, lonely and harmonious." Queen Mother, keep it all in my heart!"

Yuan Chun slightly raised his head and quickly glanced at the crown prince and the queen. The queen's face was a bit weird, but the prince was handsome, with a smile on his lips. Seeing the one that made people blush even more, he hurriedly lowered his head and kowtowed: "I don't dare to be a servant." , This is what slaves should do."

The prince then nodded approvingly: "You are a good one! In the future, you will still serve the queen mother wholeheartedly."

With such a pleasant face, Yuan Chun's heart beat like a drum, and even after he left the hall, his face was flushed very red.She clutched her chest, feeling the rapid beating of the heart under her palm, and she knew that it was the sound of excitement.

God has finally favored her once, and she has made a great contribution this time!

Behind her back, the queen frowned and asked the prince: "Prince, you don't believe this girl's nonsense, do you? The fourth child and Jia Hu? If you men just play around, it's absurd. I still believe it, but the fourth child I really moved my heart towards Jia Hu..."

The embarrassing queen couldn't believe it. She had been in the palace for a long time, and what she didn't believe the most was human feelings. The love between a man and a woman is rare. Can this man have true love with a man?

For some reason, the appearance of the emperor and concubine Shu suddenly appeared in the queen's mind, and a strong disgust quickly appeared in her eyes: what is sincerity, what is true love, in this world, do men just love to sneak around to find true love?What about their wives? !What should they do?

The queen sneered: "These years, Jia Hu is in the borderlands, and the fourth child is in Beijing. The children are already grown up. The fourth child has two sons. It seems that Jia Hu also has sons... the truth..." She clearly did not believe Yuan Chun's words. "It's guaranteed to be that girl Yuanchun who is afraid that she won't be able to do a good job, so she casually made up nonsense to lie to us, or she made a fuss out of a molehill. Prince, we don't need to pay attention to this anymore."

The prince had a different opinion: "This Yuanchun, I looked at it, it's a bit interesting." There are too many beautiful women in the palace, and Yuanchun is just a middle-class figure. An ambition that cannot be concealed at all.This woman is crazy about climbing up.

Come to think of it, she should know what will happen if she talks nonsense...

The prince smiled and looked at the queen: "Is there really such a thing, mother, let's try it, and we will know?!"

The queen raised her eyebrows and asked again, but the crown prince shook his head and laughed: "The queen mother just cares about it..."

The end of the new year is approaching, and it will be Jia Hu's first year back after leaving Beijing for many years. Jia Shezhang wished to renovate the entire Rongguo Mansion, set up a banquet to celebrate, and wish to invite all relatives and friends Everyone knows that their eldest son, Jia Hu, is back!

Mrs. Zhang said bitterly: "When you disappeared, I don't know how many people were making sarcastic remarks. Those shameless people spread the news everywhere, as if you would never come back... Someone told me that I should mourn and change~ Bah, my son has come back early, why are you mourning?! Right now, we must have a good and lively New Year, invite everyone here, and tell them that my son is fine!"

Although Jia Hu was assigned the title of guarding the army, he did not officially take up the post. The deadline given by the Ministry of Household Affairs was two years, so Jia Hu simply thought about resting at home for a year.But there is a downside, Mrs. Zhang hasn't seen him for a long time, it's okay, Lao Ai pulls him to talk.Although Jia Hu didn't dislike her motherly love, sometimes she couldn't help laughing when listening to her angry words.

"Okay, mother, what do you care about with those jealous people? If they chew a few more words behind their backs, I can still get better? You are in better health, so don't be angry!" After Jia Hu returned to Beijing, Jia Lian So he told him about Zhang's depression because of his disappearance, his serious illness and his near-critical illness, Jia Hu was startled and frightened, and now seeing Zhang's rosy complexion, he was still thinking about it all the time, but it was Don't allow her to get angry easily, so as not to hurt her body.

It is naturally inconvenient for those who are restrained to not allow this or that, but Zhang's heart is warm. After all, he is his own son, and he knows how to care about himself, so he took his hand and let him just rest assured: "The doctor said, I said that day. Being sick is a matter of too much thought, now that you are back, what else do I have to worry about? Look at me, isn’t everything fine recently? "

Jia Hu just refused to relax: "It is said that sickness comes like a mountain and goes away like a thread, mother still has to take care of it slowly."

Just after saying this, the girl said that Mrs. Gu brought her two children to pay her respects to Mrs. Zhang, and Mrs. Zhang was so happy that she couldn't see her eyes, and hurriedly asked people to come in.

The two children are Jia Hu's legitimate sons. The older one is now four years old, named Lan Ge'er, and the younger one is just over one year old, named Zhi Geer, who was brought in by the nanny.Jia Hu frowned when he saw it. Obviously, Mrs. Gu didn't know he was here, so she hurriedly gave the nanny a compliment, and the nanny hurriedly put the child down.Even so, Jia Hu's complexion was not good-looking either.Gu Shi stood aside, pinching the handkerchief, a little nonchalant.

Mrs. Zhang glanced at her daughter-in-law, and sighed silently. If you want to say that Mrs. Gu is gentle and virtuous, there is really nothing to be picky about. The only thing is that the relationship with Jia Hu is like a guest, respect is greater than love, and she is very smart in front of her on weekdays People with a lot of experience are a little bit restrained when facing Jia Hu.Immediately, he rolled his eyes at Jia Hu, telling him to restrain himself, turned around and smiled at the two grandsons: "My good grandson, come to grandma!"

Brother Lan had already been enlightened by Jia Hu a year ago, and now he only went up to pay respects to Mrs. Zhang, but Brother Zhi was lively and active, and was also young. He was usually doted on by Mrs. Gu. There are so many rules, upon hearing Zhang calling out like this, calling "grandmother" in his mouth, he moved his short legs and threw himself into Zhang's arms.

Mrs. Zhang held the child in her arms, hugging her dearly with joy: "My brother Zhi, my heart and soul!"

Brother Zhi told her to kiss her so much that she couldn't help running from left to right, and was annoyed for a while. The chubby child like a doll in New Year's paintings got angry with his chubby face and started to reach out to Gu's: "Mother, mother... "

Mrs. Zhang hurriedly stopped, put her arms around someone and coaxed: "Oh, our brother Zhi is annoyed? Grandma doesn't kiss anymore, don't kiss anymore, don't be angry or angry." He took a piece of scattered sweet-scented osmanthus from the table Cake coaxed him, "Come on, give our brother Zhi some candy."

If the little man has something to eat, he really doesn't make a fuss.Xiaopang grabbed the pastry with his hand and stuffed it into his mouth.That look, not to mention how cute it is.

Mrs. Gu and the girls and women next to her laughed.

Jia Hu was not happy, and frowned, "Mother, don't pet him, he's a man, he's going to be two years old in a blink of an eye, don't hold him all the time, let him sit by himself!"

Mrs. Zhang spat at him: "Hey, you also said that he will only be two years old next year. What a man, you just ask for this and that. Why don't you talk about you? When you were two years old, I was so right. Yours?" Called Lang Geer over again, hugged him and wept, "My poor grandson, no matter how old you are, you've been restrained so badly, it's just a good face, there are so many stinky rules and regulations At the age of four, there is no time to play." He told the two children, "Don't worry about your father, with grandma, you can play however you want!"

That's all for Zhi Geer, but Lan Geer subconsciously looked at Jia Hu, Zhang found out, and impatiently started to chase people away: "What are you still doing here, what should you do, don't scare my darling here. Sun!" At the same time, someone called Zhi Geer, "Let the three of them play together!" Lang Geer tried to restrain himself, but his eyes lit up.

Jia Hu didn't point it out, but just laughed along: "Mother, she said that she loves me the most. Now that she has a grandson, she sees a son in her eyes. Well, the son is not here to hinder your eyes, so go away!" is laughing.

Before going out, Jia Hu asked Mrs. Gu to help her watch: "Mother is in good health, so you don't have to work too hard. You can talk with me, and let the nanny watch over the child."

Mrs. Gu respectfully agreed: "Master, don't worry, I will save it."

Jia Hu went out here, far away from the door, and could still hear a group of women talking and laughing inside.Shaking his head, he really couldn't understand a woman's mind, what's the fun in teasing a child.

But Jia Hu didn't stop him, he was indeed stricter with the child, but this was also to establish his majesty in the child's heart, so that he would not be able to suppress the child in the future, but in his heart, of course, he also hoped that the child could have a relaxing time. Sometimes, Mrs. Zhang wants to keep people to play, and he has no objection—of course, the children cannot know about this.

When thinking of the child, Jia Hu couldn't help but think of the child's mother. Over the years, he and the Gu family have treated each other as guests. At the border, he handed over everything in the family to the Gu family, and he respects her very much on weekdays. Well, that's the perfect lady in the back house taught by the Three Obediences and Four Virtues, who takes care of everything for him, cares about his health, has children, and arranges concubines for him—everything is perfect.

Even when Tu Youhao sent letters to the mansion from time to time, she was still at ease, and she was fine, and would persuade him to write a few letters to Tu Youhao: "Si Ye really cares about you, you and Si Ye have been friends for many years. Why don't you just read the letter from the fourth master, but you don't reply." Jia Hu didn't believe that she didn't know what happened to Tu Youhao and him back then, but she really didn't mind, for her, jealousy was against her. How can women commit crimes?

Jia Hu originally thought she was just pretending, but after several years of careful observation, she found that Gu Shi really didn't care. The reason was probably that she didn't love him.

Jia Hu checked the Gu family and found that most of the men in the Gu family were promising, but they couldn't take the imperial examination to become officials, and there were few dudes. It can be said that there are many capable people, but there are indeed many romantic affairs. There are not many wives and concubines in the family, but in There is no lack of romance outside—compared with some people today who carry concubines and concubines home, but obviously, it made Gu know from an early age that a wife must be magnanimous and not jealous. I understand, if a woman wants to live a good life in this life, the last thing she should do is to fall in love with others.

For some reason, Jia Hu felt a sudden sense of relief when he understood this point.He didn't want to delve into this feeling, but in the days that followed, he really treated Gu Shi with respect.

Now, they still have two children, and the husband and wife raise their eyebrows together, and Jia Hu doesn't think about anything else...

Just as he was in a trance, someone came to call him: "Master, there is a guest at the door, he said he is your old friend, please meet him, look..." As he spoke, he handed over the greeting card.

Jia Hu opened it and smiled immediately, "Hurry up, invite someone to sit in the room, no, I'll pick you up in person!" He hurried to the front yard, and in front of the main entrance, a tall and tall man was facing the door, Talking to a boy.

Jia Hu laughed and went out: "But it's been a long time, Tang Bin, we haven't seen each other for more than six years!"

The man turned around when he heard the sound, and also laughed: "That's right, do the math, it's been almost seven years!"

But who is it not Tang Bin?

Jia Hu pulled people away: "Don't say anything, let's go in and have a good chat!" He was about to go in after being intimate, but he heard a servant next to him exclaim: "Xian, Xian Wang?"

Jia Hu was taken aback, turned around, and squinted at them standing on a carriage, wasn't it exactly Tu Youhao? !

I don't know why, but Jia Hu's hand holding Tang Bin's arm suddenly retracted. Looking at Tu Youhao who walked over with a blank face, his heart felt guilty...
