The Weight of the Red Mansion Walks the Road of Life

Chapter 96

Regarding Jia Mu's questioning, Jia Min said that he had nothing to say.

"I originally gave birth to a son, so I shouldn't be forced to establish a female household. I was born to my mother, so I should be filial to my mother, but my mother asked herself, my son has been raised until he is three or four years old, and he is healthy and healthy." Is it true that my mother didn’t know how she disappeared from the illness? Wang was not the culprit, and my mother was unwilling to pursue it because she gave birth to two sons and a daughter for the family. I gritted my teeth and confessed, at least not To publicize this matter outside is that Yuan Chun was born to the Wang family, and I didn't intend to ruin her reputation. My mother now says that my actions like this are not good for the reputation of the girls in the family. If what the second sister-in-law did If I go out, I’m afraid that the girls at home will have even less reputation.” After all, the things that have been pointed out these days are not unaffected by Jia Min, at least after Jia’s mother tells her what to do with her, it will have a negative effect on Jia’s family. When talking about her daughter's bad reputation, Jia Min exploded almost immediately.

Nuhu is indeed a rare existence, at least in Jia Mu's not-so-short life, she has only heard of it once or twice as a rumor, and people who mention this word have a derogatory meaning for women.

After all, this can be regarded as a morning chicken in a sense.

If there was no matter about Mrs. Wang, Jia Min would have believed that Mother Jia had good intentions. However, she had been a little unhappy with Mrs. Jia because of Mrs. Wang's matters. Looking at her natal family with great malice.

Again, between parents and children, especially when parents are in front of favored children, most of the time it is always the children who make trouble for no reason.

I have to mention here that although Mrs. Wang is indeed not a good person, she is not the culprit in matters concerning the Lin family.She just gave a little convenience to the Lin family when the Zhen family intended to give the Lin family a little flair, in exchange for Concubine Zhen's support for Yuan Chun's future.The Zhen family did have a sense of propriety at the beginning, but they used some means to make Lin's elder brother get sick, and he recovered after a short time without causing any major problems.

After all, what happened to the little brother of the Lin family can only be regarded as a coincidence.

Baochai, who was so naive as to firmly believe that as long as she was sick, it would not be an accident, caught some clues, allowing Lin Ruhai to follow the clues to touch the Zhen family and Jia family who had been messing with her before.But the little brother of the Lin family was born weak, and he fell ill again not long after, but this illness was completely caused by a normal illness caused by climate change. up.Also, the doctor who saw the Lin family routinely shirked responsibility, and only said something like "I probably lost some vitality when I was sick before."

There is really no way to find out who is responsible for this matter. When facing others, Jia Min may not be ignorant of the fact that his son died of an illness entirely due to congenital frailty, but when facing his own mother's family, he has no peace of mind.

That is to say, Mother Jia is Jia Min's own mother, and Madam Wang is also to blame for this. If others understand the twists and turns here, they may not think that Jia Min is actually making trouble for no reason.

Of course, although Jia Min made a lot of trouble with his son, it is completely understandable for anyone to think that Jia Min does not want to marry his daughter to Mrs. Wang as his daughter-in-law.

In the marriage of children, the so-called parents' order and matchmaker's words have always been paid attention to. Sometimes grandparents may not be able to insert a sentence or two, but there is never the truth that the grandmother is in charge.Both Lin Ruhai and Jia Min had their own plans for Baochai's marriage. No matter how much Jia's mother wanted to think about Baoyu, it was impossible for her to go beyond the Lin family to make an appointment.

Especially when Baoyu's parents didn't cooperate at all.

----split line----

Ever since she broke up with Jia Mu again, Jia Min never went to Jia's house again, at most, she asked her servant to deliver one or two delicious dishes to Jia Mu every ten days and a half months. Soft and rotten dim sum, but I never came to the door in person.

Although there is a lot of emphasis on filial piety these days, the sons-in-law and grandchildren are more filial and harsh, and they can't be more lenient for married women.Just like Jia Min's three concubine sisters, there are not a few who cut off contact with their natal families after they got married, and those like Jia Min are already very close.

On the other hand, Mother Jia has also lost her mind since she was bullied by Jia Min. Not to mention she gave up on this matter completely, she was more or less cold-hearted. After that, I didn't mention it at all, and it was considered to have died down.

Although Lin Ruhai's heirs are not good enough, his official luck is still prosperous, so even if Jia Min has the title of a jealous woman now, it still doesn't prevent her from being like a fish in water when she is at a banquet at a family's house in Beijing. At most, she just never sees her again. It's all about Baochai's marriage.

Of course, it's not that no one talks about their children's marriage, but this time, no family can shamelessly talk about their own children and grandchildren. My nephew mentioned this matter—but this time, most of the candidates came from poor backgrounds and no prospects, but Jia Min looked down on them very much.

So upside down, although the Lin family has successfully renewed their friendship with people in the capital, they are still at a loss for Baochai's marriage.

When Zheng Chong was in Yangzhou, he used to live in the Lin family, but it was only in the name of a book boy. The Lin family was still able to speak in the south of the Yangtze River, and the Zheng family and the Li family who were related to Zheng Chong never raised any opinions. , but no one said anything.

But in Beijing, this is not possible.

So after he arrived in the capital with the Lin family, he moved out of the Lin family and lived in his uncle Li Sanlang's house. Although he was not a serious master in the Li family, he still had the status of a cousin The sisters are also well-bred and don't treat him as an outsider, so life is naturally not difficult.

When Zheng Chong arrived at Lin's family, he already had the status of Tongsheng.He himself is quite talented and learned, and with Lin Ruhai as a famous teacher, he has won the title of scholar in the Lin family fairly smoothly in the past few years.

Although a young scholar is not as valuable as a young scholar or Jinshi, it can at least prove that Zheng Chong has a talent for reading, and he is also a person who sees each other every day. Lin Ruhai decided to accept Zheng Chong because of the relationship between Jia Min and Xiao Zhang Chong is a registered disciple.So although Zheng Chong can't continue to live in the Lin family, but he often runs to the Lin family, no one can find out if he is wrong, and he is not very unfamiliar.

Even Baochai, he has seen it several times.

When I was in Yangzhou before, Lin Ruhai deliberately kept him and Baochai apart from what he said when he first cast his vote.But now Zheng Chong's predicament has almost been resolved, and there is no imminent crisis that requires him to sacrifice himself, so Lin Ruhai only regards him as his disciple, and doesn't think much about it.

On Baochai's side, because she will always have to take over the affairs of the Lin family in the future, she often goes to Lin Ruhai's study.Even Lin Ruhai didn't think about avoiding things because of the difference between men and women, and they would always run into each other a few times.

This kind of back and forth, can't help but make people lose their minds.

Zheng Chong went there because of a lady in the Lin family, even if he had never met anyone, he always knew of Baochai's existence.Although the Zheng family has lost power now, and he is not in a desperate state at the beginning, it does not prevent him from paying more attention when he sees the sister of the Lin family.

Is the head of the twelve gold hairpins comparable to ordinary people, even if Baochai just called "senior brother" a few times and hurriedly avoided him, he didn't talk to him much, but it didn't prevent Zheng Chong from being very special to Baochai. Pay attention to one or two.

Zheng Chong is almost 19 years old, exactly the age of the young Mu Ai. If it were in someone else's house, men of this age would have married and become fathers long ago. Although the family is an uncle's family, when the Zheng family is unwilling to give up, it is not a good name for him to make decisions about his marriage, so it will be delayed.

Now, he sees a gentle, amiable, beautiful, dignified and generous girl who is often around him, and it is quite normal to have some charming thoughts.

Baochai knew nothing about this.

Baochai is a woman with a strong sense of professionalism, which is rare these days. Now that the Lin family has such a large family business, she has to be in her hands. She must not be kept busy. How can she think about such trivial matters as marriage? , especially under the premise that the order of the parents comes first in matters of marriage.

Zheng Chong is a very assertive person, otherwise he would not have been able to go directly to the Lin family four years ago and recommend himself.Since he had some unspeakable thoughts about Baochai, he naturally had to ponder the pros and cons of it himself.

This matter can only be decided by himself.

After all, the name of the son-in-law is always unpleasant, but it is impossible for the uncle's family to accept it anyway.If it were four years ago, it would be fine. At that time, the Zheng family was aggressive. Seeing that there was no way out, he would be cornered by the Zheng family. No matter how much the Li family cared about their reputation, they couldn't really watch themselves being forced to death.But now the Ji family has lost power, and my stepmother's confidence is not enough. After I am admitted to the Juren Jinshi, I just go home and be the master of the family.

What the Li family thinks is actually the choice most people would make in the same situation. The Li family’s aunt is gone, and even if the Zheng family repents, they will only welcome a tablet home and will not treat Zheng. The family has changed a lot. Ji's natal family has lost power and she has no children. Zheng Chong's father sees that there is only such a brother from the direct line, but he will have to rely on Zheng Chong to live in the future. The previous things are simply a quilt Covering up is not a bad thing for anyone.

In the hearts of most people, it is always very important to recognize the ancestors and return to the clan, but if they become a son-in-law, they have to change their ancestors.

But Zheng Chong happened to see this.

It may be difficult for the Li family to understand how much Zheng Chong hates his father--it is wrong for the Ji family to force his mother to go to court after seeing a married man, but the Ji family will always kill a stranger, who is more worthy of hatred It's his father who doesn't care about his wife and children.

According to the law of this dynasty, after becoming a married woman, she has the same status as a married woman, even his father can no longer force him with filial piety, he only accepts his mother's tablet.

The only pity is that the status of the son-in-law is lower after all. It would be a pity if he could no longer continue to study and become an official after joining the son-in-law.

The author has something to say:

It's true that Mother Jia can't control the Lin family's daughter's marriage, but such an incident will definitely damage Jia Min's reputation, which will also damage the reputation of Jia's daughter, so...
