Jia Lian of the Red Chamber

Jia Lian thought that people must slowly accept his proficiency in his articles.

Therefore, the sharpness is restrained. Although the article has a profound intention, the writing uses simple and simple words, not seeking beauty and surprise, but only being easy to understand.

Jia Lian wrote an article that satirizes the rich man with his own dandyism as the model.

Jia Lian recited the article again and again, and the more he read it, the more he felt that his article had extraordinary intentions, and it was not a light work, so he felt complacent for a while.

Jia Lian was very proud of finishing his article this day. He thought that he would come to ask his uncle for advice in the next few days, and let him know about the progress of his article.In order to avoid suspicion and deceive others, he was actually fooling his uncle. Zhang's uncle is not an ordinary person.

Cheating in imperial examinations is no joke, and many people lost their heads because of it.

The Zhang family is the leader of the literary world, so it is polite not to destroy Jia Lian's righteousness if he can tolerate it.

Therefore, Jia Lian wrote a few more articles on the Analects of Confucius and the doctrine of the mean, and found out and revised the articles he had written before, which had been criticized by the private school Jia Dairu as nonsense. Together, the eyes and ears are confused.

One day, Jia Lian came to ask his uncle for advice. Uncle Zhang read it. Although he was happy that the article had improved and his intentions were sharp, he felt a little lacking in his heart. To hit the point is already considered commendable.

With this thought, Uncle Zhang didn't bother anymore, but took a few more glances at his nephew, who had always been a playboy, and saw that Jia Lian had changed his previous playboy attitude and treated him with respect, which was much more pleasing to the eye than in the past few days. It is said that children can be taught.He was happy to replace his deceased sister, and he was secretly relieved that Jia Lian finally did not blind the Zhang family's noble blood in vain.

Uncle Zhang wanted to edit Jia Lian's articles, but thinking about his sensitive identity and Jia Lian's past performance, Uncle Zhang dismissed the idea and only corrected Jia Lian's few inaccuracies and others. The undertaking was not smooth enough, so Jia Lian was asked to express it in his own words, and at the same time, he gave Jia Lian the inkstone and lake pen that he had participated in the palace examination, in order to wish his nephew a successful start.

Uncle Zhang is a leader in the literary world. Although he has not yet appeared on the stage, he has already concluded in his heart that Jia Lian's level is very sure to pass the government examination, so he ordered Jia Lian to study behind closed doors for the rest of the time. Now that his level is already good, there is no need to pass the government examination. Come to the door, so as not to give others a handle.

Jia Lian is a perceptive person, knowing that Uncle Zhang's intention is to avoid suspicion. In his previous life, although he was not good at writing, he was well-versed in human relations and naturally followed good advice. After half a month, he stayed behind closed doors and devoted himself to reading books in Meng Pozhai.

Although Jia Lian was determined to win the government examination and did not allow anyone to disturb him when he spoke, everyone in the Jia family didn't care. One day, Jia Lian was painstakingly crafting and embellishing the article, striving to be as good as his own writing, showing its splendor in simplicity, not wanting Jia Zheng Suddenly he found Jia Lian in person, but he came to discuss with Jia Lian about the release of Jinling Yingtian Mansion outside Jia Yu Village, and ordered Jia Lian to go to the accountant to collect one thousand silver and send it to the official secretary's house to arrange dredging for him.

Hearing this, Jia Lian immediately pressed his forehead and scolded himself for being confused. These days, he was so focused on preparing for the exam that he forgot about this bastard turtle with a long head and a bone.

When Jia Lian was in the frontier, he regretted that he didn't know people well, and vowed to punish this white-eyed wolf if he had the opportunity. Now that he came to the door by himself, don't blame him for being a black hand.

The Rongguo Mansion has always paid attention to father and son, and the sons absolutely obey the father's decision. Jia Lian in the past has always treated his uncle Jia Zheng like a father.

Now, although Jia Lian has changed his mind, his knowledge is different from the past.But it's not easy to disobey face to face, and in the blink of an eye, there is already a calculation in my heart.He knew that hard obstacles would not allow him to fulfill his wish, and that it would take a lot of effort to accomplish this, so he respectfully took Jia Yucun's brief biographical materials, turned around and went to the cashier to pay money. Use it cheaply.

Then, Jia Lian ordered Xing'er, the boy, to ride out of Rongguo Mansion.

Now, Jia Lian already knew Jia Yucun's face, so of course he would not contribute money and efforts for him as before. He would rather feed the dogs with Jia's money than spend half a cent for Jia Yucun.

Here Jia Lian bid farewell, said on the surface that he would go to the official department to clear up, and rode out on a tall horse, then turned around and took Xing'er to Ningguo Mansion.Xing'er thought that Jia Lian had committed an old problem, and he was afraid that he would take the opportunity to gather people to drink flowers and wine, and was busy persuading him: "Second Master, if you don't book a private room at this time, I'm afraid you will invite officials from the Ministry of Officials, and there is no place to comfort you. I missed the second master's affairs, and I might have to eat dinner."

Jia Lian snorted coldly: "You don't need to worry about this matter, the Lord has his own consideration."

Xing'er knew that although Jia Lian was gentle, his temperament was not easy to get along with, so he didn't dare to make any noise anymore. Anyway, he just needs to be supported by the men when the sky falls.The worst thing is to suffer some flesh and blood, the second master never treats others badly.All the way without a word, the masters and servants fell into the next street. Jia Lian dismounted at the gate of Ningfu, and threw the reins to Xing'er: "I have something to discuss with you, Mr. Zhen, and I don't need you to serve me. Didn't you brag a long time ago and promise Riding a white horse and taking your daughter-in-law outside the city to loosen up, this horse is yours today."

Xing'er didn't expect the master to be so talkative today, when he encountered such a good thing, he was overjoyed for a moment: "Okay, I will listen to the master's orders."

Jia Lian walked a few steps, turned around and ordered again: "Remember, don't go back and gossip about today's affairs, and watch your skin carefully if there is any leak!"

Although Xing'er was afraid of Jia Zheng, he was loyal to Jia Lian. Hearing this, he knew that his master was afraid that he would look down on Mr. Jia who came to join him and wanted to spoil his affairs, but he didn't want to be heard by the second master. Feng Sheng immediately touched his mouth horizontally: "Don't worry, Lord, my mouth is sewn shut!"

Jia Lian went to Ning Mansion, but instead of looking for Jia Zhen, he went to Jia Rong's study. Jia Rong was also competing with the Four Books and Five Classics these days. His grandfather Jia Jing sent word back, telling Jia Rong to test the waters this year.

Outsiders don't know what to do, but Jia Rong really knows herself, not to mention this year, and in a few years, she will fail the exam, but she dare not disobey her grandfather, and she is also afraid of his father's criticism.

He didn't dare to go out to play around these few days, but he was not a material for reading, and his head was dazzled by reading, and now he was furious in his heart, jumped to scold the girl, and threw a few pieces of writing paper on the girl's face: "You idiot!" How did you grind it down, clear soup and little water, take a look for yourself, the words written here are all blurred, so you should just obey the law, delay the master's business, and see if the master doesn't peel your skin!"

Just as Jia Lian came in, he saw Jia Rong's black hands and ink on the tip of his nose. He couldn't help laughing: "Hey, this face has been drawn. Is our uncle Xiao Rong studying or singing? Woolen cloth?"

These days, Jia Rong was bored by her grandfather's detention and studying, and she felt very unhappy.

No, this dandy young master is not happy with himself, so he is looking for fun with the servant, and he is losing his temper and scolding the girl to vent his anger. Who knows that Jia Lian has come, and his heart is not falling.

Jia Rong hurriedly bowed and saluted with a smile: "Oh, my second uncle Lian, why did you come here in person? It was supposed to be my nephew who came to greet my second uncle, but now my second uncle Lian came to see me. It's not a sin. Besides, when you come, you should let the boys breathe in advance, so that the nephew can go to the door to greet you. I labored for you to enter the door, and the nephew saw it. It really made the nephew die of shame. !"

After experiencing life and death, Jia Lian was very happy to see this nephew who was as kind as his own son again. He smiled all over his face, stretched out his hand to twist Jia Rong, straightened him, wiped the ink on his nose, and smiled happily. Very kindly: "Stand up, you don't have any bones."

Then, Jia Lian sat down with his legs crossed, still smiling, and looked at Jia Rong: "Don't be foolish with me, I know you monkey is tired from studying, go and wash up, uncle is the host today, Wufenglou Yanfeng Lou Ping, if you like it, you can eat and order whatever you want, and Second Uncle will pay for everything today."

Jia Rong likes to hang out with those girls in private houses the most, and she is happy and will not cause trouble. She is overjoyed at Jia Lian: "Second uncle is serious, nephew is not welcome, nephew is there It's a good place, not Wufeng Tower, nor Yanfeng Tower, but an elegant small building that has just emerged in Shichahai. It is said that the pink head is a lady from a wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River. Because both parents died, she was rejected by her husband's family. After coming out, now I open a private restaurant in Shichahai, and I also sing songs, but it is a bit troublesome to sleep with me, but this person needs her to take a fancy to him. Tempted. I don’t know how many people are fighting famine nowadays, but they just don’t take her body.”

Jia Lian frowned when he heard that, he knew this person, but she was the daughter of the former magistrate of Yangzhou. Originally, her family's affairs were worse than that of a married woman. Her husband's family divorced her because they were afraid of being involved, and she had seven months of pregnancy. A male fetus was also beaten alive by her husband's family.

It was also because the officials who handled the case had some conscience and didn't want to implicate innocent people. She was only raped when she returned to her natal family.After this incident, she became cold-hearted, and she simply broke the pot and smashed it, raised her banner, sold herself, trampled herself, and enjoyed herself.

Because she was born in an official family, and her husband was born in the imperial examination, and now married to a clan girl, she is very beautiful. Therefore, her ex-wife is quite sought after by the dudes in Kyoto.Many disciples from famous families spent a lot of money to try to get her to sleep.

Speaking of which, this person can also be regarded as the enemy of the Jia family. It is Zhao Quan who took refuge in the Zhongshun palace and married the daughter of the palace's side branch.
