Aristocratic family's career in the Red Chamber

Mrs. Zhang came back from her natal Jingyuanhou's mansion worriedly, restless all the way.Thinking of the conversation with her brother just now, she frowned worriedly.

Because Jia Daishan refused to help Jia pardon Zhang to take care of Jia Hu who was in the palace, Zhang had no choice but to ask her natal family.Simply Mrs. Mrs. Zhang, Master Zhang Hou was very kind to her, and she agreed as soon as she asked.

Although Zhang Houye is not in good health now, before he was poisoned and damaged his body, he was still a well-known family member in Beijing. But still, this time he entrusted his friend who served in the Imperial Army to help with the arrangement, and finally got in touch with Jia Hu in the palace. But the small letters are hidden close to the body and asked to be brought out. As long as they are packed carefully, someone will always be willing to deliver them.

Today, Mrs. Zhang went to Jingyuanhou's Mansion because of the letter Jia Hu sent from the palace.Mrs. Zhang could see that her elder brother didn't agree with her passing the external information into Jia Hu's ears, letting a child know so much.But Mrs. Zhang knew her son's precocity, so she insisted on doing so.Today, in Jia Hu's letter, she proposed to ask her to check the situation outside the palace, especially the movement of the soldiers and lords.Mrs. Zhang didn't understand her son's deep meaning, but she could see clearly. After seeing the letter, her brother's eyes flickered solemnly.

Is this going to happen?

Growing up in the circle of power, Zhang's political sensitivity is not uncommon.Now the atmosphere in Beijing is already full of panic, but the son wanted her to pay attention to the Lord's movements, but the elder brother did not refute it, but acquiesced.Her intuition told Mrs. Zhang that something big might happen after this...

The carriage stopped suddenly, Mrs. Zhang recovered from her contemplation, and Mother Su raised her voice and asked, "What's going on? Why did it stop suddenly?"

The girl who was sitting on the shaft outside came in and replied: "Grandma, there is a row of soldiers passing by on horseback in front of them. They seem to be from the imperial guards. They are in a hurry. They are afraid that they have a task, so they stop."

Mrs. Zhang nodded in approval: "Well done, the imperial guard camp belongs to the emperor's guards. Since we have an errand, we should let it go." And we are not in a hurry, why bother to miss the emperor's errand?

Sitting in the carriage, Mrs. Zhang slightly lifted the curtains with her fingertips, and looked outside. There were people coming and going on the street outside, but they were all in a hurry. Looking into the distance, there was indeed a pair of guardsmen riding past. , galloping the horse galloping, not even having any scruples that this is a street market, and everyone avoids wherever they pass, it seems that there is really an errand.As soon as the person left, the common people would whisper to each other, talking and looking at the person who was gone, pointing and pointing, but they didn't know what to say.Even the guests in the teahouse poked their heads out, watching the figure of the Imperial Guard camp going away, talking endlessly...

This atmosphere, I am afraid that everyone knows that something big is going to happen.

But, where do you start?

Mrs. Zhang rubbed her temples and felt a severe headache. Her Jia Hu is still trapped in the palace...

When I returned to Rongguo Mansion, I asked about Jia Amnesty. Mother Jin said that she was asked by Jia Daishan to talk, but she never came back.

Mrs. Zhang patted the table angrily: "I have something to do, what is the master these days? Since the second master set off for Jinling, the master will not look for the master someday, and the master will go up there every day, even if he is scolded." If you know how to work around, it’s fine to just find an excuse to avoid it. It’s not that I don’t know that I went to the elder brother’s place to find out about Hu’er, and I didn’t say I feel sorry for my son, so come back and ask me what news I got!”

Mother Su and Mother Jin persuaded her: "Grandma, why should you be angry? This is the nature of the uncle. He never knows how to play tricks. If the uncle is as eloquent as the second master, how can he still be suppressed like this all these years? You Didn’t you just say that the old man has a good temper, he puts everything on the surface, he won’t do anything behind his back, he is aboveboard? Why are you so angry now? It’s not like you didn’t miss the anxious look of the old man when you left the house in the morning, so what? Are you not worried about Brother Hu? You are obviously very nervous. I am afraid that something got stuck, so I couldn't come back."

Mrs. Zhang also spoke angrily because she was really worried about Jia Hu. How could she really not know Jia Amnesty's temperament.But as a mother, when it comes to children, how can there be so many reasons to talk about?She knew that Jia Amnesty was helpless and was stuck by Jia Daishan, but when Zhang thought of the turmoil in the court and Jia Hu contracted smallpox in the palace, Zhang's heart was pulled together, and the pain was severe. I can't care if Jia Amnesty has been wronged. "He is a big man, if he really cares about Hu'er, can he find an excuse? What important matters can the master come to him, isn't it just those trivial things? It's really important, can the master leave it to him? I don't know how to care about Hu'er, but fortunately, Hu'er was so filial to him in the past, it's really chilling!" Zhang said, thinking of how much Jia Hu had suffered in the palace at the moment, how worried she was. , his eyes turned red all of a sudden, and he became even more unhappy with Jia Amnesty. "At the beginning, I begged Master to help me make some connections, but Master was unwilling. Now that I have asked my elder brother to help me, he is still so indifferent...My poor Hu'er..."

Facing this kind of Zhang, Mama Su and Mama Jin were at a loss. It was Mama Su who came to her senses first and asked someone to carry Jia Lian out, so that Jia Lian could coax Zhang Shi.

Jia Lian is also over two years old at the moment, just at the time when she was cute. Seeing Zhang Shi wiping her tears and being sad, she hurriedly asked what was going on in a childlike voice: "Mother, why are you sad?"

Looking at Jia Lian's small body, Mrs. Zhang thought of Jia Hu's white, tender and lovely appearance back then, hugged her youngest son, and cried bitterly: "My Lian'er, my Hu'er..."

When Jia She came back from Jia Daishan with a sad face, what he saw was Zhang's family and Jia Lian hugging each other in pain, and Su's mother, Jin's mother, was helpless. She frowned, sat down next to Zhang's, and said irritably, "Good job." What are you doing?" Suddenly remembering that Mrs. Zhang went to her brother-in-law's place today, her heart skipped a beat, and her heart beat violently in an instant. She looked at Mrs. Zhang nervously, and asked in surprise, "Could it be Hu? What happened in the palace?"

"Bah, bah, bah!" Mrs. Zhang glared at him angrily, "You crow's mouth, Hu'er is fine in the palace, so what could happen? Are you hoping that something will happen to Hu'er?"

Only then did Jia Amnesty relax slightly, heaved a sigh of relief, and facing the displeased Mrs. Zhang, she frowned and said, "What kind of anger are you getting? If you hadn't been holding Lian'er and crying, I would have thought otherwise." gone?"

Zhang stared and was about to get angry when Jia Lian poked her head out of her arms and said to Jia She, "Mother misses her brother. Father, when will my brother come home? Lian'er misses her brother too!"

Because I have just cried, Jia Lian's big round black eyes are watery, the eye sockets are still red, and her red mouth is pouting, saying whether she wants to cry or not, Zhang looks at this The youngest son, the tears fell again quickly.Holding Jia Lian in his arms, he cried to Jia She: "Look, even Lian'er, who is so old, knows that he misses his elder brother. It's good for you, you're still a father, and you don't care if your son suffers in the palace. I finally got the news and you didn't care. If you don't want to see our mother and son, you can just say so, why bother to pretend to care about Hu'er."

Jia She was not wronged, and said inexplicably: "I don't care about Hu'er anymore. He is my eldest son. I think about it all the time. Why don't I care about it? I didn't mean not to come back, I was really stumped." Living."

Mrs. Zhang sneered: "Shangxin? Your Shangxin is to go and chat with the master every day? You have forgotten how ruthless the master is to us Huer, and he is even unwilling to find someone to open up connections. You still go every day like this, I didn’t even come back when I got the news from Hu’er. Master, what’s the matter? Didn’t you go a few days ago, besides telling you to stay at home, what else did you say? You can’t come back sooner?” Mrs. Zhang He almost blurted out that Jia Daishan wanted Jia She to stay at home and avoid going out to cause trouble, because he thought it would be embarrassing for him to go out.In the end, there was still a sense of reason left, and he forcibly endured these words.

Jia Amnesty was irritated by Zhang Shi's nonsense playing tantrum, and was about to get angry when he raised his eyes and saw Zhang Shi's red and swollen eyes and tear stains on his face, for some reason, his heart softened suddenly.

Since marrying him, Mrs. Zhang has not lived a comfortable and comfortable life. She used to be an idiot, eating, drinking and watching theatres.But she still devoted herself to living with herself, and gave birth to him two good sons, Jia Hu and Jia Lian...

With a sigh, Jia She's anger subsided again, and he looked at Zhang helplessly and said, "Master is really looking for me this time."

In a dignified tone, there was no trace of jokes.Mrs. Zhang paused with her hand wiping her tears, and glanced at Jia She suspiciously. Jia She did not evade, but nodded slightly. Mrs. Zhang's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly wiped away her tears, and asked Mama Su and Mama Jin to hug Jia Lian When he went back, he pulled Jia Amnesty and asked worriedly, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Jia She nodded: "Brother Jing came from Dongfu today and said something." Zhang's brows were furrowed together, and there was an ominous premonition, and what Jia She said next proved this point as it should be. "I'm afraid something big is going to happen to our family." Jia She smiled wryly and sat on the chair. His anger had been vented in Jia Daishan's study earlier, and now Jia She is only exhausted and has no strength left. Angry. "In such a chaotic situation, brother Jing came here. He only said that he wanted to ask his father for help, but he didn't say anything. I only know that my father is very anxious and troubled today, but no matter how I ask him, he refuses to say what is the matter. What's up."

Mrs. Zhang was even more terrified when she heard this, and said anxiously: "Now that the whole city is in panic, what else is Brother Jing going to do? He doesn't think it's messy enough. Sir, you can't be confused, our son is still trapped in the palace. Know what will happen in the future, at this time, don't get involved in other troubles."

Jia She smiled wryly, and said helplessly: "I can't decide this matter? You don't know who is in charge of our family? The most troublesome thing is that I don't even know what Brother Jing wants to do now. See you today After respecting elder brother, I had a premonition that my father let me stay at home these days, and it was also related to elder brother Jing... You said that I am in the mood to care about these things now? I respect elder brother and father... I was worried, What kind of trouble will our family get into..."

Mrs. Zhang's already restless heart became more and more anxious, and she almost slapped the table and shouted: "Please, please, please, when did our family have less trouble?! You don't know anything, and you can't do anything about Hu'er." Bring him out, you are the head of the family, the reliance of Hu'er and me, now you can't say anything, so what do you ask me to do?!" As he spoke, he burst into tears. "Do you know how guilty my brother's face was when he told me that Hu'er was doing well in the palace? He was lying. Our Hu'er was not doing well in the palace. He may have suffered a lot. Wronged... At this time, you can't help at all, and you are being dragged to do other things..."

Jia She has never been a magnanimous person, Zhang's accusation so bluntly, he acted as if he was furious, but when Zhang burst into tears in front of him, and even lost his usual demeanor, Jia She was inexplicable, Suddenly feel sad.

He has seen Zhang like this three times.When Old Master Zhang passed away, when Jia Hu fell off the rockery and didn't know if he was dead, and, now...

Jia She raised his hands, wanting to embrace Zhang Shi, but suddenly froze when his hands were about to touch her, stopped for a long time, Jia She withdrew his hands.Every time Mrs. Zhang was pushed to the edge of the cliff and was helpless, it seemed that he never helped her.When Old Master Zhang passed away, he watched her being made things difficult by her parents, but he didn't help her at all.When Jia Hu fell off the rockery and was dying, Zhang’s dystocia, woke up and knew that Jia Hu was still crying when he was still awake, even when he could hear it outside the house, he was so guilty that he didn’t even dare to be there anymore stay.But this time, to find out about Jia Hu's stay in the palace, and to find a way to send the news, it was all Zhang's busy schedule...

Jia She closed his eyes and opened them again. Jia She said solemnly: "I assure you, no matter what father wants to do this time, as long as it endangers us, I will never compromise." No matter what Jia Daishan asks!He, now has to think more about his little family.

Mrs. Zhang slowly shed tears, looked at him, and sneered: "If you can do what you say!" She picked up her mood, "Just in time, Hu'er sent a letter, and you will ask someone to investigate the matter of Brother Jing together." Check it out..."
