Xichun is a Buddhist practitioner [Red Chamber]

Chapter 192 Jia Baoyu Goes to the Northwest

Time passed quickly, and it was time for Jia Baoyu to leave Beijing in a blink of an eye.Sure enough, the Ministry of Officials asked Jia Baoyu to be the magistrate in the northwest, where Mrs. Wang was exiled.

That county is very poor, there is yellow sand, and the conditions are difficult, so few people are willing to go there to be a county magistrate.In the past, those who served as county magistrates there were mostly children from poor families. No matter how much they wanted to develop the backward county, they couldn't do it. They could only make fewer mistakes and want to be promoted earlier.

On this day, Jia Xichun deliberately went to the gate of the city to see Jia Baoyu off. After this parting, I am afraid that they will not be able to see each other again for a long time.

"I gave this to you." Jia Xichun took out a token and handed it to Jia Baoyu, "I used this token to deposit some silver, and you can get it from the bank written on the token."

Afterwards, the maid beside Jia Xichun gave Jia Baoyu another burden.

"There are some pearls in it, for my future sister-in-law." Jia Xichun thought that Jia Baoyu would probably get married in the northwest, and it was unlikely that he would travel thousands of miles to the northwest to see Jia Baoyu get married.

But she could have passed, just didn't know when it passed.

In such a remote and backward place in the northwest, her family must not want her to go, so she can only go there when she goes out to play.

Jia Xichun pondered, a place like the Northwest, with a lot of yellow sand, poverty and backwardness, is so suitable for earning merit.Must go someday, maybe she should remind those agricultural officials to see if they can come up with hybrid rice or something.

Anyway, she can't do it herself, she only knows about hybrid rice, she doesn't know how to make it, and she can't go to the fields every day, so she can only rely on those who know how to farm.There are specialties in the art industry, but she reminded that it might not be of much use, those are not her specialties.

There are no books on agriculture or biological genetics in her space. It can only be said that excellent couples give birth to excellent offspring.Can the excellent rice produce excellent offspring?

Jia Xichun thought it was impossible for those people not to discover this, but it was really not that easy to study.

Standing on the shoulders of giants, it is really useful and high-tech.

Jia Xichun didn't have that much hope for ancient hybrid rice, and the ancient chemical fertilizers were not the same, and it was impossible to think about pest resistance and the like.Many problems are not as simple as talking about it. If you want to eat this big cake and gain merit, it is not so easy.

Moreover, she herself doesn't know those things, even if she wants to gain merit, it is the person who studies it, not her.

She thinks it's good for others to get it, at least it can save many people.

"The land in the northwest is not easy to grow." Jia Xichun looked at Jia Baoyu, "But my cousin still has a variety of species, so do more research. People depend on food."

"En." Jia Baoyu nodded. He was a bit reluctant to part with the capital and these relatives, but there was no other way. He had to go to the northwest.

He himself is a suppressed stone spirit, and his biological mother did such a thing again, so he must do more.

Jia Baoyu looked up at the city gate of the capital. In this life, maybe he will enter the capital again. At that time, he will definitely not achieve nothing, and he will definitely do something in the northwest.

"It's not that we can't meet again." Liu Xianglian said, "Don't be so sad."

Liu Xianglian often travels and travels to many places, but she doesn't feel that much emotion.

Jia Xichun looked at Liu Xianglian. After all, this person was not with Third Sister You, nor did she cause so many troubles.Without Jia Lian proposing to Miss You, the matter would not be so complicated.

In the original book, it was because Jia Lian helped Third Sister You to marry Liu Xianglian, but did not clarify the situation of Third Sister You, which led to the subsequent tragedy.It would be easy for people to misunderstand people if they did not tell people their identity and background clearly. Besides, Third Sister You did have some relationship with Jia Rong and Jia Zhen, so I can't blame others for not understanding her.

It is said that there is no second marriage, but in fact, few men are willing to marry her.Liu Xianglian is also a poor person who was tricked.

"It's not so peaceful in the northwest, so I need you to take care of my cousin." Jia Xichun knew that Liu Xianglian would work with Jia Baoyu. It would be easier for someone like Liu Xianglian to do things there, after all, he often walks outside. , see people more accurately, and know how to deal with those people better.

"It should be." Liu Xianglian said, anyway, he was traveling outside before, and there was nothing to do.It's better to go to the northwest and do things seriously. If he can help his friends and the people, that's his luck.

Jia Yuanchun and others also came to send Jia Baoyu off, and they all prepared some things for him, some dry food, and some bank notes.It's not easy to bring those heavy things, so it's better to bring some light ones.

After watching Jia Baoyu leave, everyone also dispersed.

The former brothers and sisters have all grown up, and each has its own future.

In Rongguo Mansion, Shi Xiangyun knew that Jia Baoyu was going to leave the capital, and she wanted to send Jia Baoyu off, but she was already engaged, so it was not impossible to really send him off.However, Mrs. Jia refused to let her go.

Just saying "I love my brother" may ruin everything and cause people to withdraw from the engagement.

Mrs. Jia does not allow such a situation to be at ease, because she is afraid that Shi Xiangyun will have a brain twitch and call out love brother.

"Don't blame me either." Mrs. Jia detained Shi Xiangyun in Rongqingtang, "That day, when Baoyu came to bid farewell, you saw him too, so there is no need to go to the gate of the city to see him off."

If Shi Xiangyun went there, it would not be a farewell at all.Mrs. Jia was worried about Shi Xiangyun. Even if Jia Baoyu went to the northwest, Shi Xiangyun would only call him a few words.But how important a woman's reputation is, even a few words can have a big impact.

Mrs. Jia must kill this possibility and not let Shi Xiangyun make mistakes.

Shi Xiangyun's eyes were reddish, she had known for a long time that it was impossible for her to be with Jia Baoyu, especially after she got engaged.Because that was a great general with a higher official position than Jia Baoyu, she deliberately asked the maidservant to tell her, and she said it in front of Jia Baoyu, just to see his attitude.

In the end, Jia Baoyu only said congratulations to her for finding a good marriage, and let her continue talking.

She wanted to say that if Brother Ai was willing, she would give up that marriage.But reason told her that it was useless, even if she gave up that marriage, Jia Baoyu would not be able to marry her.So she was left with that marriage, and had no other choice.

"Not to blame." Shi Xiangyun said, "If you want to blame, you can blame myself. If father and mother were still there, today's scene would not be like this."

If my father and mother were still there, I would be able to get engaged to Brother Ai.No, it's not necessarily engaged to Brother Ai, she should be able to marry someone better, and her temperament is not like this, so she might not be able to fall in love with Brother Ai, because she couldn't always go to Rongguo Mansion when she was a child.

This is all because her parents are gone, so her experience is different.

"Oh, don't think too much about it." Mrs. Jia has nothing to do about this.Back then, it was also because she felt sorry for Shi Xiangyun whose parents died early that she always came to stay here for a while. She didn't expect that there would be so many entanglements between her and Baoyu.

"Brother Ai should have left now, even if I rush to the gate of the city, I won't be able to see him." Shi Xiangyun said.

"It's wrong to say love brother again." Madam Jia reminded Shi Xiangyun, don't always call love brother love brother.

"I'm used to it, and I can't change it for a while." Shi Xiangyun still didn't want to get rid of this name after all, "Brother Ai has gone to the Northwest, and I probably won't see him in the future."

"..." I can't see it, that general is also a general in the northwest, maybe you can meet him when you go to the northwest.Mrs. Jia didn't continue talking, and if it doesn't work, let her husband's family take care of her after Shi Xiangyun gets married.

On the other hand, Lin Daiyu's marriage was soon settled, and the person who made the marriage contract with her was a young county king.The father of the county king died early, and he was alone at a young age.Even so, he is not a mother boy, he does not listen to his mother in everything, and his mother is also a good person, she rarely goes out on weekdays, but eats fast at home and prays to Buddha.

When the lady was being bullied by her children, she was not relentless, she would go into the palace to cry and knock on the door.Although she loves her children, she does not love them blindly.

After Jia Min knew the character of this lady and some of the things she did, she felt a little more at ease, because she was afraid of meeting those people who said yes on the surface, but secretly gave their son a woman.How could he be a short-sighted person who can teach good children.

The lady also went out to attend the banquet in person after some consideration, and communicated with Jia Min in private.Their family allowed women to be officials outside, and they themselves were a down-and-out royal family. Even if her son is now a young talent, he can do things for the emperor, but it still can't change the fact that they have fallen.

Now that it has fallen, don't think so much, don't think about letting your daughter-in-law do this or that.The lady thought very clearly that after Lin Daiyu married into their family, she would continue to be a female official and had a good relationship with the princess, and she would be able to occupy a place in the female department in the future, and the descendants of the county prince's mansion were not bad.

The two families have to look at various aspects when looking at the marriage. The lady thought about these, and Jia Min also thought about a lot of issues. First, the lady has a good temper. , is already working for the imperial court, and the future is promising, and the aunt who married three times doesn't have so many troubles.

From the marriages of the children and the conflicts and troubles between the children, we can see how good the teaching of the lady is.Such a mother-in-law is suitable for Lin Daiyu. Jia Min does not want her daughter to meet a difficult mother-in-law. If she meets a difficult mother-in-law, it is a trivial matter for the mother-in-law to give her husband a woman, and it is also a trivial matter to take the child to raise her. I am afraid that you will not be able to have a baby. .

In this world of three wives and four concubines, anything can happen.

Jia Min only had two children, Lin Daiyu and Lin Qi, so naturally she had to take care of everything for the children, and she couldn't let her marry someone who was wrong.

When Liu Xuan learned that Lin Daiyu had decided to get married, he didn't regret rejecting the prince's proposal at all.In the face of those major events, children's personal affairs are trivial matters, and there are too many troublesome relatives in my family, it is not suitable for a talented woman like Lin Daiyu to marry in, and she should not be trapped in the inner house.

If you want to say how much you love Lin Daiyu, that would be false, just a little bit of liking.

It's hard for a person like Liu Xuan to love someone to the core, especially when he knew from the beginning that it was impossible for him and Lin Daiyu.Because I knew it was impossible from the beginning, so I have no past expectations, and I will control my emotions.

If this kind of liking can be controlled, it will be difficult to become deep love.Uncontrollable love, the more you want to get it, but he is not.

On this day, Liu Xuan saw Lin Daiyu on the street, he didn't try to avoid it, he just walked over, nodded slightly to say hello, and passed by.

Lin Daiyu stopped and turned to look at Liu Xuan.

She once thought of Liu Xuan when she was looking at the portraits of those men, but she also understood that the two of them were not in the right family, and also knew that they had no feelings for each other.She thought of him probably because he was handsome and handsome.

"This one is really good, and he went to Dali Temple." Lu Shaohua walked outside with Lin Daiyu, "I won the Jinshi, so I went there. I heard that he did well."

Lu Shaohua was not surprised at all that Liu Xuan got up so quickly.She had seen Liu Xuan a few times before, those with ability always climbed very fast, those without talent took their time and could climb up with hard work.

"It's not bad." Lin Daiyu nodded, such a person is not only good.

Lin Daiyu is not an idiot who can only write scripts, so she naturally knows that it is not that simple.

Liu Xuan was so ordinary in the past, even without fame, but this time he was immediately recommended to take the scientific examination.This is nothing, after all, Liu Xuan was born in the Liu family, even if the Liu family is down and down, they can still find some useful contacts.

But even if you can find contacts and directly participate in the scientific examination, if you are a Jinshi in the examination, you are not the number one scholar, the second place, or the best candidate, so it stands to reason that you should not enter Dali Temple so soon.But Liu Xuan just got in and got started so quickly, which shows that Liu Xuan has done a lot of things before, and his skills are not weak, and those skills are all honed.

Regardless of whether Liu Xuan was pretending or not, and what she did, Lin Daiyu didn't think deeply about it, these are not things she needs to care about.

At most, the two of them were officials in the same dynasty, and they were not in the same department, and they had little contact with each other.

"Let's go, we still have to walk a few more times." Lin Daiyu said, "This time the script hasn't been written yet, so I have to delete it."

"Still so serious." Lu Shaohua sighed, she thought Lin Daiyu's script was very good, but Lin Daiyu always changed the script.This may be the reason why her talent is not high. She thinks it is okay, and others have to modify it.

"I can't be serious." Lin Daiyu replied, "The pens, ink, paper and inkstones outside are so expensive, and the books also cost a lot of money. If you delete and edit it, simplify it, the story will be more exciting, and the number of printed pages will be less and thinner. They buy books. It doesn’t cost that much money.”

Lin Daiyu didn't take this into consideration at the beginning, and she doesn't know how expensive Chai Mi is if she is not in charge of the family.She is also a noble girl, not short of food and clothing, nor money.Other than others, she had no idea that those books were so expensive in the eyes of ordinary people, and many rural families could not afford to buy or read books.

So Lin Daiyu thought that the story should be shorter and more exciting, and it would be better if it was easy to tell the story, so that more people would hear it and more people could buy the storybook.

But those who can't even afford the Four Books and Five Classics, don't even think about buying Chinese scripts.

Although the women's department allows those people to read books in the bookstore, they have to be literate before they can read them, which in itself is a lot of restrictions.It's not that the officials of the women's department don't want to find a way, but it's really hard to come up with a good way.This kind of thing still has to be done slowly. It is better to establish women's medical schools in various places first, so that those who are willing to be medical women can come to learn and know more words, so that they can read more and speak when they go back.

"I have to think about it." Hearing Lin Daiyu's answer, Lu Shaohua thought that the other party had worked very hard.Lin Daiyu is not the only one who works so hard in the women's department. The other female officials also work very hard. They all have to think about saving costs and how to promote it, but they can't cut too much.

Lu Shaohua thinks that going out to escort goods and run darts is easier than being an official in the women's department.Don't think she is just protecting them, in fact, she also has to find a way to improve the physical fitness of women, and she can't always make those men think that women are weak.

"Yes, I have to think about it." Lin Daiyu said with a smile.

In the teahouse, Jia Xichun watched Lin Daiyu and Liu Xuan pass by like that, thinking that they would just pass by.

Even though Liu Xuan is interested in Lin Daiyu, it is a pity that his status is not worthy of Lin Daiyu after all, and he belongs to the prince, the Liu family was on the side of the eldest prince before.This means that Liu Xuan will be easily criticized in the future, and the Liu family said that such a person is very suitable to be a lonely minister and a knife in the emperor's hand.

Lin Daiyu is not suitable for such a family, and Lin Daiyu just stopped and looked back at Liu Xuan, maybe she had moved on purpose.

It's just that people like them are destined to be impossible to reach out. Their thinking is very mature and they know what to do and what not to do.They are not the kind of people who think that they are love at first sight, they are not love brains, sometimes this kind of hazy feeling just begins, and it disappears before it becomes clear.

"Your cousin will get married soon." Xie Changyun sighed.

Jia Xichun turned to look at Xie Changyun, "My aunt and uncle will keep her for a year or two."

"At the end of this year." Xie Changyun said, "It won't work without the head of the house."

The mother of the king of Pingjun was basically eating fast and praying to Buddha. Since she had arranged a marriage for her son, she hoped that her son would get married as soon as possible.After Lin Daiyu enters the mansion, she will be assisted in taking charge of Zhongfu.Lin Daiyu can continue to be an official in the women's department, and the Pingjun Palace also has a princess, so there is no conflict.

"Then marry." Jia Xichun has no objection to this, and it's not her who is marrying, so what objection can she have? Don't stretch your hands too far.

Is she going to take care of Lin Daiyu's health and whether it is suitable for her to conceive so soon?

When Jia Xichun thinks of this, it is a black line. Don't diverge your thinking. Once you diverge, you will feel that you are thinking too much.

"Your third cousin got married last year before she could grow up." Xie Changyun said again.

"..." The corner of Jia Xichun's mouth twitched slightly.

"You are the only one missing." Xie Changyun coughed lightly, "Marry me when you are old enough, so you won't be left behind."

Jia Xichun almost poured a cup of tea to Changyun, "This is so backward, I'm young!"

"Well, young." Xie Changyun nodded, "No, I'm waiting for you. By now, I'm almost an old man."

Mr. Xie is an old man in the Upper Realm, right?Jia Xichun thought that such an old man should pretend to be young in front of everyone, there will always be times when he can't pretend.

"Compared to me, you are indeed an old man!" Jia Xichun said firmly.

No, is it too late to say that I am still young, Xie Changyun thought to himself.
