The Weight of the Red Mansion Walks the Road of Life

Chapter 69

Regardless of how difficult the Xue family was before, after all, their family has survived now.Don't look at the so-called scholars, farmers, businessmen, and the Xue family's life is indeed not as noble as the other families, but the life is really good.

Especially compared to the relatives and friends of the Xue family who are currently troubled, it is true that Aunt Xue is living the best life, or in other words, recently she is indeed the number one idle person among relatives and friends.

Although the son loves beauties, his vision is high and he can't make do with it casually, especially he doesn't have any interest in those girls with high prices in brothels.Xue's family is considered rich in the south of the Yangtze River, even if Xue Pan really bought a whole yard of beautiful maids, they didn't cost much, so Aunt Xue didn't care about Xue Pan's small problems.And the daughter is even more well-behaved and sensible, and there is nothing wrong with it. The only problem with frailty is that it costs a little medicine, and the cost to Xue's family is even a drop in the bucket.

For example, the Wang family and the Jia family who have the closest relationship with the Xue family, although the Jia family is in trouble because of Yuanchun's marriage, although there is nothing major on the Wang family's side, there are always some minor troubles, and the Lin family's end is the most difficult time. .

Counting all the families, the problems encountered by the Lin family are actually the most serious, but fortunately, the hearts of the Lin family are very united, and no one has two hearts.That's all for the Wang family, most of the relatives' affairs are bothering them, but they are just helping out, and it won't cause too much headache for the head of the family.But Yuanchun's marriage in the Jia family was really delayed for a long time, and what's even more frightening is that the hearts of the Jia family may not all be together, even if you don't count the big family members who have no good intentions for the second family. Even among those who are also for the good of Yuanchun, Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang have different thoughts.

The population of the Lin family is simple, especially when Jia Min has sent back half of her natal family, the rest are the servants of the Lin family except Jia Min's most confidant. Seeing that the Lin family can do well, they dare not have the slightest disagreement.

Even if there is a really confused girl in the Lin family looking at the aunt who gave birth to a concubine to inherit the family business and become the master, then there is no need to attack the Lin family sister, so it is naturally harmonious to the extreme in comparison.

Since Jia Min gave birth to her youngest son, her body was injured and she couldn’t bear children anymore. Her body was inherently weaker. At that time, the doctor said that it was several years after her two births, otherwise it would be enough for her to be completely broken. Damaged the body and shortened the life expectancy.

Originally, when her legitimate son was still there, she took the trouble to control the back house, and didn't want her aunt to give birth to a concubine to threaten her son's status, but now that she has lost her son... Even if the husband prefers to make his daughter the heir, if it is possible In Jia Min's heart, she would rather her husband still have a son.

So those maidservants who wanted to climb to the top of the bed also ushered in a good day when the mistress was extra tolerant, and the rest of them naturally thought like Lin Ruhai and his wife that at least they had to do their best to help the sister stand up before the Lin family had no brother.

Jia Min herself was born as a talented woman, and she still has the kind of temperament that was raised in the boudoir with a bit of aloofness.Although she was the number one talented lady in Beijing back then, if she was asked to support a family, her character would appear a little soft, not to mention the time when she was just married and young, even now Those who don't have that ability.But Baochai will have great responsibilities in the future, but he has to sacrifice some.If she still has a brother, with the wealth and power of the Lin family, she can naturally grow up according to her own preferences. She will never worry about getting married if she only looks at Lin Ruhai's official position and her future dowry. Focus on the relationship between the housekeeper and the director and the accidents outside.

Even if Lin Ruhai didn't have the temperament of a nerd, he couldn't say that he had such a slick temperament. Although he was good at some common affairs, he still had the elegance and dullness of some scholars. He felt that it was a kind of grievance for his daughter to stop studying and concentrate on common affairs.

It's just that the current situation of the Lin family is like this, no matter how much Lin Ruhai loves his daughter, he must pass on the Lin family.If Baochai's temperament seems to be incapable of standing up, that's all. At worst, Lin Ruhai will sacrifice his own face to beg for his relatives and friends. It may not be impossible to bring his second grandson back to his home—but even if Lin Ruhai The person you choose is really good-natured and won't change your mind in the future. No one can guarantee that Baochai will give birth to a second boy.

Even Baochai herself, when she heard Lin Ruhai talk about these two choices, chose to adopt a son to inherit the Lin family instead of adopting a son after marriage without even thinking about it.

"If the other party repents after I leave the cabinet, this adoption is just a private statement. Even if the other party directly repents, our family can't get anything back. If I only marry out, given our family's situation, I will definitely have to go out with most of the family property. Otherwise, they will be confiscated into the national treasury in the future, and if a adopted child comes back, at least half of the child’s property will be accompanied, how could the family be willing to lose such a large amount of money for nothing.” I don’t know who taught it, Bao Chai seems to have a natural talent for money, and a special sensitivity to the dark side of human nature, as if he has experienced some suffering in the world long ago.

In fact, Baochai is not very interested in the four-book poetry anthology of Zhenger Bajing. Although he also loves to read and study, but even when he reads, he reads more miscellaneous books. At most, he can only scan them briefly. Remembering something is right to increase your knowledge, and it doesn't take too much effort.

On the contrary, he is extremely passionate about the affairs of the housekeeper and director, and it is easy to get started. Even when Jia Min was tentatively handing over all the family affairs to her, he got started very quickly, except for a little mistake in the first month. In addition, the efficiency and ability to deal with things later far surpassed that of Jia Min, the head wife who had been a serious Lin's wife for ten years.

It is actually a good thing that blue is better than blue, especially when Baochai's life is destined to be difficult in the future, her better ability means that she can live a better life.There may be fathers in this world who feel a little awkward seeing their sons are more capable than themselves, but I have never seen any mother who does not want her own daughter to become outstanding, especially Jia Min's generation. There is only this biological girl left, who else can she love if she doesn't love her.

Seeing that Baochai is getting better at handling things, Jia Min also starts to be slick.It is difficult for a woman to establish a household. No matter how capable and excellent Baochai is, she must have more people to support her. , the status of this family must not be too high - if Lin Ruhai and his wife were still there at that time, it would be fine. At least there are elders with high status who can protect them, but the daughters of both the Lin family and the Jia family rarely live long. Yes, no one dares to guarantee a future.If only the young husband and wife were left behind, it would have to be protected by other relatives and old friends, otherwise the Lin family's fortune would never be preserved.

People are always selfish. In Mr. Cao’s original article, the reason why the Lin family’s sister and daughter ended up in tears after all their wealth wasted was more because the Jia family was a close relative of the Lin family at the beginning, so they gained [-] points of the Lin family’s trust. The reason why the Jia family lacked an outsider to supervise when they took the Lin family sister to be raised.

No matter who's family sees millions of vain silver right in front of their eyes, they can't resist greedy. It's just the difference between greedy and greedy. With the single-handed wealth of the Lin family for several generations, even half of it is left. Coming out is considered a decent dowry for a girl, and it is really impossible to hire this girl as a wife and cover it up with a happy event, so no one can find fault with it.It's just that Mrs. Wang is extraordinarily bold and cruel. Not only did a grand view garden spend millions of Lin's property, leaving nothing for the Lin family, but she also didn't want the Lin family's sister to be her daughter-in-law because she didn't like Jia Min. The fetus brought some illnesses and was naturally weak, so she let the Lin family sister die of illness, and even saved the last dowry money of tens of thousands.This made Jia Jiaping gain a reputation for murdering money for nothing, which made this incident all the more surprising.

There have never been many sinister people in this world, and Jia's family is not alone.However, the richer and more powerful a family is, the more respectful they are. If the Lin family only entrusts their own property to one family, they can't hide their greed without supervision, but if there are several other people who supervise them, But they never dared to disregard their own decency.

As the only direct daughter of the Duke of the state, she is not of a domineering nature. Among the boudoir girls of about the same age in Beijing back then, although there were such discordant Mrs. Wang in every possible way, there were always people who had sincere friendship.Most of Jia Min's better handkerchiefs at the beginning were married well. Although some of them broke up a lot of friendship after they got married, they couldn't ask for too much, but if they want to use their original friendship to ask for a future Blessing is not difficult.

The friendship in the girls' boudoir is always the most sincere, even though some of them have not been in touch for ten years, but Jia Min sent a courtesy letter in vain, and the letter was full of pleadings, which seemed extremely pitiful.Women have always been disadvantaged in this world, so naturally I feel that Jia Min, who "has a poor child and the youngest son died young and the whole family has only one daughter", is really worthy of sympathy. In addition, Lin Ruhai is indeed proud of his official career. There is no benefit but no harm, so I have no opinion, the reply letter only agrees that it doesn't matter whether the Lin family sister will marry or recruit in the future, if it is really necessary, I will definitely be able to protect this little niece.

Is it a bit strange to feel that the scene is constantly jumping...
