Jia Lu through the Red Chamber

Chapter 139 Next Post

On the second day, Jia Lu got up early and continued to sort out the books, but Daiyu hesitated to send Lin Rui out of the house.

At noon, someone from Ningguo Mansion sent a message, saying that Jia Lu was to go home. Jia Jing was looking for her, so Jia Lu cleaned up and wanted to go home. Qiang inquired, hope Daiyu can relax and so on.

After returning home, everyone in the family was waiting for her. Jia Jing was in the top position with a stable expression. Jia Zhen and his wife sat on the side. Jia Zhen still looked dissatisfied. This is normal, but Zhang's complexion is not good. , Jia Rong looked at her beggingly, Jia Qiang seemed to be pricked by a needle, and couldn't sit still. When she saw her coming, her eyes lit up, and she squeezed her nose to wink at Jia Lu.

Jia Lu greeted her respectfully one by one, Jia Jing and others called him up, then Jia Rong and Jia Qiang got up to greet her, Jia Lu asked them to get up again, Jia Lu asked,

"I don't know why Daddy called me back?"

Jia Jing glanced at Jia Zhen and his wife, and said,

"I met that Shen Yun before, he is a pretty good kid, and I heard him say that if her younger sister wants to get married in the future, she will be adopted under the name of the owner of the library. This family background does not matter, and your brother agrees." , It's just that your sister-in-law is worried about that girl's character and wants to see that girl."

Jia Zhen felt a little aggrieved, did I agree, or was it forced by you?I don't know what kind of blessing this Shen family got, that they fell into the old man's eyes?

Jia Lu also heard a few meanings from the few short sentences. First, her father obviously agreed to this marriage, and she was obviously a little happy to see it happen. Thinking of her father's background, could it be that this What can the Shen family do?Second, her elder brother was dealt with, so she said that her elder brother would never be able to hold him back!Third, although the father and brother agreed, the sister-in-law disagreed, so I came to find her, but what's the use of just looking for her?

This Shen family does have something extraordinary. This Shen Yun was only a little familiar to Jia Jing at first. I have never heard of a person named Shen Yun making trouble in the officialdom, no matter whether he is a loser or a winner, but this name is indeed familiar.

Fortunately, after Jia Jing met him, he found out who he is now under the name of Mr. Pan Shuiming. Mr. Pan Shuiming is a boss of the Ministry of Industry, especially good at water conservancy. He is not a minister but he is better than a minister. The repair of the moat has since solved the problem of lack of water in the winter when Kyoto is located in the north.

Shen Yun doesn't have much reputation now, and he won't have much ability in the officialdom in the future, at least he will be just a servant when he comes back. His greatest reputation, like his master's, lies in water control.

A few years later, he successfully predicted that the Weihe River would divert in Weinan, Shaanxi. Although the Weihe River is large, it is docile and not as fierce as the Yellow River. Trusting Mr. Pan, he ordered the evacuation of the local people, and he also undertook a lot of pressure. He never thought that after the rainy season, he really changed his way as he said, so his name became popular for a while, and later he proposed tree planting. The theory of governing the Yellow River, the Yellow River has always been a pain in the heart of the dynasties of all dynasties. Since he proposed such a method, and there are examples of successful predictions, the sage sent him to govern the Yellow River.

When he came back, he heard that the governance was good. If it really succeeded, the eternal reputation would fall on him, and it would be worthwhile to marry him.

Therefore, Jia Jing was quite in favor of this marriage. Jia Zhen had always been under Jia Jing's suppression, so Jia Zhen reluctantly agreed.

She thought that everything would go well, but she didn't want to make trouble with the Zhang family. She was high-spirited and devoted herself to finding a daughter-in-law from a wealthy family. Those noble girls were picky and picky before, and the lively ones were not stable enough. The one who is beautiful is too dull, the one who is beautiful thinks she has seduced her son, and the one who is ordinary thinks he has been wronged. How can she look up to a person who has a flawed reputation and seduces her son?

Before, Jia Zhen stood in front of her, but she didn't show it. She only advised Jia Rong from behind, and even Jia Rong thought she was a lobbyist for Jia Zhen.

But Jia Zhen has been suppressed. Even if Zhang doesn't want to directly oppose Jia Jing, but for her only son, she can only do it by herself. Since Jia Jing has mentioned the issue of family background, it is difficult to refute it. He can only use others. Speaking of a human being, anyway, she doesn't believe that a woman raised by her mother as a maid is capable of being a good wife of the Jia family. As the saying goes, a good daughter-in-law can prosper the family for three generations, and a daughter-in-law who disturbs the family can ruin the family for three generations.

Jia Jing really didn't expect it at first, but Zhang's remarks are also reasonable, Shen Yun's reputation is a matter of later, even if he left his name, it is for the Shen family, even if their Jia family has a reputation as an in-law, they can't get it How much light, if the girl is really bad, the loss outweighs the gain.

Naturally, Jia Lu didn't know that everyone in this room had thought, considered, and considered so much about a marriage. Since they wanted to see that girl from the Shen family, then they should. What are they calling her for?Do you want her to stand out?

"Daddy, do you want me to post a post to invite Miss Shen?"

Jia Jing nodded, he couldn't just say that Mrs. Zhang looked down on him, so he said,

"That's true. Our two families didn't have much contact with each other before. Only your nephew and Mr. Shen have a classmate relationship. If your sister-in-law came forward, it would be too public, so I thought you would post a post to see her." Their girls, do you understand?"

Jia Lu agreed, "Of course, if I make a post, the lotus will bloom in our house, and there will be some beautiful scenery, so I invite Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen to come and have a look."

It's really not good to just invite someone else's girl, it's better to invite someone else's brother together.

Jia Jing praised, "You should be more thoughtful."

Now that the discussion has been settled, Jia Lu is going back to write the post. Jia Rong found a free time and hurried up, saying:

"Auntie, wait!"

Jia Lu stopped and looked at Jia Rong.

"Auntie, Jiang Ling, after inviting the girl from the Shen family, I hope my aunt will take care of her more."

Jia Lu saw that his wife hadn't settled yet, so she felt so distressed, she silently lit the wax for her sister-in-law, as the saying goes, if you marry a wife, you forget your mother, and before you get married, you forget your mother.

Oh no, I still have to light the wax for that Miss Shen. When I met this man who didn't know how to deal with the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, my sister-in-law hated that Miss Shen to the core. I can only swallow what I want to say.

Seeing that he was getting more and more haggard after the imperial examination, he comforted him,

"Don't worry, with me, I will take good care of her! If it succeeds, I would like to ask you for a favor!"

Jia Rong thought of Jiao Qian's attitude when she came back to tell Jia Jing a few days ago, knowing that Jia Lu was on his side, and hearing her say such auspicious words, she would have to go up the mountain of swords and down the sea of ​​fire.

"Auntie just orders, no matter what I can do for Auntie!"

Jia Lu opened her mouth, hesitated, and teased:

"As for what it is, keep it a secret now!"

Originally, I thought about directly telling him about Daiyu's need to inquire about the college, but I thought it would be great if the matter between Jia Rong and Miss Shen was settled, but it would be bad if it didn't. Only one nephew can order it, so he simply didn't say anything.
