The Honest Man of the Red Chamber

Yuanchun and Yingchun naturally got the package from the maid smoothly, and then everyone was arranged according to their age by the Shanggong and the nuns in the palace. When it was Yuanchun's turn, she would generously lead Yingchun Hands and Qin Shanggong who took care of them applied to be in the same room, no matter what, they are also the imperial palace. Chuxiu Palace is the place where the show has been drafted since the previous dynasty. There are not many show girls this year, basically they are two people. between.

Qin Shanggong hesitated for a moment, but nodded in agreement. Looking at Yuan Chun's appearance and dressing up, even if she didn't need to see whose daughter she was, she would definitely be much higher than her own status in the future. Why offend her for such a trivial matter.

Seeing that Yuanchun started, many acquaintances also paired each other hand in hand. Standing in front of Qin Shanggong, Qin Shanggong didn't hesitate, "Do you two want to stay together?" As long as they nodded, let them directly Choosing a partner to move in by myself, the originally slightly tense atmosphere suddenly became a little cheerful.

"Tch, she's the only one who seems capable..."

After the house was divided, everyone was busy going into the house to rest for a while. Although this sentence was not loud, Yuan Chun heard it very clearly, but he didn't look back to see who said it. Even if she didn't look back to confirm, the personality The people who really wanted to overwhelm her, except for Yu Xiuxue, Mi Tingxiang, Chen Miaoxue, Ouyang Xuan, Yuan Zhen, and Qi Qing, who had a higher official position than her father and had an extraordinary family background, there would be no one else who had just entered the palace. On the first day, I had the confidence to be rude.Thinking about the fact that she didn't know these six people, it was a bit contradictory, it must be Yu Xiuxue.

While everyone was queuing up to be checked by the nuns of the Shang Palace, Yuan Chun had already matched the information given by his mother to the real people one by one.

Yu Xiuxue, seventeen years old, the daughter of the patriarch Ling Yu Rugang, she is intelligent and beautiful, she is best at calligraphy and painting, and she has a hot fight with Chengjun Wangzheng.

Yuan Chun dragged Ying Chun to her room, so she didn't bother to care about what other people thought. She didn't want to have anything to do with the royal family or nobles. It would be best if any empress looked down on her and let her go home.As for my younger sister Yingchun, my mother told her in private that because she was born as a concubine, she just had to go with the flow to participate in the draft.

After all, Wang Guizhi found that she really didn't have the talent in this area. Even if she wasn't a moon elder in the sky, she couldn't be an underground matchmaker. Her own daughter couldn't worry about it anymore, and she didn't dare to interfere too much. Of course, people like Zhongshan wolf would definitely not succeed.At the same time as she was collecting data on beautiful women, she also collected some students during the spring period, and was waiting for the emperor to hold an autumn hunt, and take a look at the performance of those young talents.

Jia Zhu entered the quiet room, and saw that her mother knelt in front of the Guanyin statue and prayed, "Mother, don't worry too much about my sister. She will definitely come back in a month."

"I'm not worried."

Wang Guizhi opened her eyes and said with a smile, she found that the excuse of offering incense to the Bodhisattva was really useful, once she put on this posture, no one would bother her.Alas, if there is one thing she is most dissatisfied with when she returns to Beijing, it is definitely not that she has to go to invite An Chensheng to Jiamu every day (she takes it as a morning exercise and leads the children there), but The human relationship in the big family is too cumbersome. Even if Mrs. Li is not the head of the family, there are still relatives of all kinds who come to her. She can't refuse such a visit, after all, it is the relatives. give face.Later, she got out of this quiet room again, and came in every two days to think about things quietly, and gradually those relatives knew that she came less often, and gave her a peace of life.

The mother said so, but she was definitely still worried about it. Jia Zhu didn't see through her mother's pity for her son, so she also knelt down and said, "Do you have anything to do with me?"

"Well, there is something."

Wang Guizhi looked at her son who had grown a lot taller than when she first came, and her grandson was also in her arms. She tried her best to be serious but still kept her gentle way, "I ask you, what are your future plans?"

"Plan?" Jia Zhu didn't know why.

Recently, Wang Guizhi thought that now she has a lot of promising properties under her hands, and many things, such as some things she wants to do, are also in the bud.Meeting people is unpredictable. When she was alive in her previous life, she never thought that she would get cancer, and died so quickly, and then took her body to Mrs. Wang.If a person dies, it is like a lamp being extinguished, and she can't use it no matter how much she has, just like in her previous life, she was sad and hopeless that her biological mother and siblings would do such evil things, but if she hadn't died too quickly, She can also clean them up.But Wang Guizhi did have his own negligence. He thought that the disease could be controlled, and he kept it from his daughter, which gave them an opportunity to take advantage of it.

How could she commit such a lesson from the past?

Now that Jia Zhu has a son, and Yuan Chun is about to get married, why can't she prepare her dowry first?

"My son, you have a son yourself, don't you still think about your own future?" Wang Guizhi shook his head lightly and said, "You are the eldest son of our second wife and the pillar of your wife's son, why are you still confused? Do you want to go to school in the future? Do you want to become an official like your father? Or do you think it is enough to have a famous name and gradually take over the business of being a mother? Are you going to be in charge of Zhenwei Restaurant and Bowei Building? , or do you want to be in charge of Tongda Logistics, the All Things Chamber of Commerce? And our porcelain kilns, paper workshops, bookstores, miscellaneous workshops..."

Jia Zhu felt timid when he heard it. He had never thought about these things before, "Mother! Isn't it too early for you to say this now?"

"How can it be too early? You are so old, have you never thought about what you really want to do?" Wang Guizhi guided and said, why many aristocratic families will collapse in the end, but some crafts will be passed down from generation to generation. Passing on, she thought, maybe it was because the children of rich and noble families got it too easily from birth, and their parents and elders had already arranged their paths, just like Jia Zhen, Jia Lian or even Jia Baoyu is all the same, although they have different appearances and different evils, others can still shirk their responsibility, but parents cannot be exempted.

"I..." Jia Zhu opened his mouth to speak, but he couldn't tell his mother. At this moment, he knew that he really didn't know what he wanted to do?

After getting married, she had always hoped that he would go to school, but his mother, who had been ill for a while, began to pay more attention to his body, and even specially assigned some chores for him to try, even though the mother was pregnant, she never forgot him.He followed his father back to Jinling to buy a sacrificial field and planned to build a family school, and then went to Suzhou to study the Four Books and Five Classics with his uncle, and became a scholar.Later, the whole family went to Shanxi. Once Shanxi College was completed, he also became the first batch of students of Shanxi College. There, he studied, rode and shot, studied the four arts, etc. with never so many companions.I heard that the younger siblings still miss the time when they were in Shanxi Primary School. In fact, even he likes the days in the academy very much.

He thought for a while, "Mother, the son can't answer for a while, please let the son think about it." But what the mother said is really very reasonable, if he can't figure out what he really wants to do, how can he help his brother? How about we set an example?

"Okay!" Wang Guizhi nodded, "If you want to be an official, you have to start thinking about what kind of official you want to be from now on. For example, your father is based on agriculture and opened up trade routes. It is based on the development of the economy, and like Jin Yushi in the court, three generations of his family have used advice and letters as their official voice, and there is also the Sima family. Ever since Sima Qian was born, they have always made history... Maybe Do you want to be an official who pleads for the people and clears the criminal law? Anyway, after you make up your mind, you have to start making plans, just like building a house. Good base."

"My son understands."

Jia Zhu has been thinking since returning to the house, and his sister is also thinking about her next step in the palace.

Just now Qin Shanggong led someone to deliver things, and Yuan Chun had already given her a brocade handkerchief, which was regarded as a meeting gift.You can’t bring gold and silver in your luggage, and of course you can’t give away a complete set of selected precious jewelry.But brocade handkerchiefs are different. The best embroidered brocade handkerchiefs are not only expensive, but also easy to collect. Any woman in the boudoir does not carry two dollars on her body, whether it is for personal use or for sale.In order not to hurt others' self-esteem in Shanxi, my mother subsidized a poor student's home to set up a weaving workshop in a disguised form, and could weave any kind of cloth she wanted.There are also many embroiderers at home, and within a few days after she draws a pattern, all the old ladies and ladies in the family can use it.Those poorly embroidered and second-class ones will be sold directly at Zafang Ji. What she brought this time are the most common and commonly used auspicious patterns in the outside world. They are rewards that my mother has thought about for a long time.

When studying etiquette and rules in the palace these two days, Yuan Chun clearly felt Yu Xiuxue's hostility, which is really very unusual.Although there is no goodness for no reason in the world, there is no hatred for no reason either.The Jia family has no relationship with the Yu family, and the Yu family is the patriarchal order, and Master Yu is the son-in-law of the eldest princess. Although the eldest princess has passed away long ago and never left a son and a half daughter, no matter whether it is the former emperor or the current emperor, They all take good care of the Yu family.After the Jia family became a hero, they have always been safe and secure. They did not interfere with the Yu family. Entering the palace and drafting talent is the imperial court's ancestral rule. If there is no reason, will Yu Xiuxue target her everywhere?

Everyone is a show girl, and Yu Xiuxue's main target is the princess of Chengjun. Anyway, the former princess of Chengjun "died of illness" in May this year. When she went to visit the queen and the ladies of the palaces, Concubine Zhuang deliberately talked to Yu Xiuxue for a while In other words, I rewarded her with an extra pair of earrings, which is already very obvious. It can be said that she has a certain chance of winning, so why should she target herself?

Impossible, Concubine Zhuang has taken a fancy to her again, right?

When Yuan Chun thought of this, he frowned slightly.When it comes to the positions of the various palaces, except for the empress who seems to be paying attention to her for a while, no other concubines have any explicit hints?

Forget it, since you can't figure it out, it's fine, people's hearts are far away, how can she know what others think?Anyway, she is always on guard, just be careful.

The empress pulled out the tea bowl and wrote casually, "Does the king of Yijun really often take out a brocade handkerchief embroidered with white cats fluttering butterflies?"

"Back to the empress's words, I dare not lie."

On that person's face was the eager joy of being on the blue sky.

Unexpectedly, the queen was furious and said in a hateful voice.

"Humph, I think you are very courageous. Are you a slave who dares to look at what my son is wearing and ask?" The queen put down the tea bowl, "Drag her out for me and beat her to the twenties." plate."

"Yes, empress."

The man opened his mouth in disbelief and was covered tightly. Until the last second of her breath, she didn't know why she died.

The author has something to say: the holiday is coming soon, have you eaten mooncakes yet?

Which is your favorite mooncake this year? (I still like ice cream ice cream ~ hee hee ~
