Brother Jia Sheshu of the Red Chamber

Chapter 149 The Change of the Jia Family

Wang Ziteng's return to Beijing is not only a major event for the Wang family, but Xue and Jia's two families are also waiting for it.

Xue Bin and his son were sitting in the study, they looked quite depressed.

Xue Bin asked, "How is Chi'er?"

Xue Yi replied respectfully: "Physician Zhang said that it will be fine as long as it is raised for a while."

Fortunately, it was discovered early, and the poison on Chi'er's body was not beyond the point of no cure. According to what Dr. Zhang said, it only needs to be recuperated for a while, and the poison on Chi'er's body can be completely removed, and it will not affect future offspring Things.

Xue Bin nodded slightly, and said after a long time: "When Chi'er is well, send him back to Jinling Academy to study."

As the Holy Majesty has begun to pay attention to mathematics, physics and chemistry over the years, not only Yingtian Academy in the capital, but also places with prosperous literary styles such as Jiangnan and Jinling have begun to have new schools to teach mathematics, physics and chemistry. Although Jinling Academy is not as good as Yingtian Academy, it is not considered Worse.

"Father!" Xue Yi said anxiously, "Chi'er is only seven years old and still a child, how can he go back to Jinling to study alone?"

Even if you want to study, you should go to Yingtian Academy in the capital. Parents can take care of them nearby. How can they send their children back to Jinling Academy? No matter what teachers are in Jinling Academy, they are far inferior to Yingtian Academy. Tian Academy, this is not a mistake for the child's talent.

Xue Bin said in a deep voice: "Mrs. Wang is not someone who will give up easily. Letting him stay at Xue's house will only be more dangerous."

How could he have the heart to send Chi'er back to Jinling alone? Although Xue Wang's family also added a son to the Xue family, Xue Pan's qualifications are far inferior to Chi'er's, and he is still a bit stupid in his actions. It is possible to go to Chi'er, but Chi'er is born from a concubine, and Xue Pan is not only a descendant, but also has an uncle behind him--Wang Ziteng.

With this one person alone, they can't argue with Wang about her repeated attacks on Chi'er, and they have to send Chi'er away so as not to hinder her eyes.

Xue Yi said bitterly: "The Wang family is relying on her brother..."

Ever since Wang Ziteng started to show her prominence, Wang's behavior has become more and more unscrupulous. Previously, she just suppressed Tong Fang and Aunt Niang, but this time she actually attacked Chi'er again. She really has no motherly heart.

His heart moved, "Father, although Wang Ziteng is highly valued by the Holy One, we still have some face in front of the Holy One, how about..."

"Nonsense!" Before Xue Yi finished speaking, Xue Bin scolded him, "Do you think this is not embarrassing enough, and you want to make it known to everyone?"

"Father." Xue Yi said indignantly: "Their Wang family is powerful, but our Xue family is not completely inferior to the Wang family. This matter is the fault of the Wang family. Why did we ask the Xue family to send the child away? My son thought, Your Majesty's temperament will definitely not let the Wang family be so arrogant."

The Wang family is an upstart, but their Xue family also played a role in the Jurchen War and made a lot of contributions to the Jin Dynasty. The Holy One will not just watch Wang Ziteng bully their family.

Xue Bin sighed: "Of course the Holy Majesty will not allow Wang to break the law and discipline."

Although the Holy Majesty used Wang Ziteng a lot, it didn't mean that he would think highly of this daughter of the Wang family. Previously, Jia She went to the Ministry of Industry, which the Holy Majesty valued the most as soon as he left his official position. As soon as he entered, he was the head of the sixth rank, and he was promoted to the fifth rank in a short time. Doctor, if you compare it with his younger brother Jia Zheng, who is still a member of the Ministry of Rites, even though he became an official early, he knows that the Holy One is not a person who favors others.

However, His Majesty has always dealt with things in accordance with the law. With Wang's crimes, their Xue family will naturally stand still, but...

Xue Bin said bluntly: "If you really ask the Holy Spirit to come forward, I'm afraid that not only will there be no old friendship between our family and the Wang family, but even an enemy will end."

For Wang's crime, a sentence of imprisonment is light, but she is a noble daughter of the Wang family, not to mention imprisonment, even if she just goes to court and gets a slap in the face, it is enough to ruin the reputation of the Wang family. No longer in-laws, but mortal enemies.

Xue Yi sighed, and understood the reason, if he hadn't cared about the friendship between King Xue and his family, he would have tolerated Wang.

With a few words, Xue Bin decided on Xue Chi's future, "Send the child back to Jinling, send a few capable old servants to take care of him, wait for him to grow up, and give him more property when the family is divided in the future. father-son relationship."

Although the law stipulates that all the sons should share equally, until now, unless the Holy One intervenes, no one really takes it seriously. There are too many ways to hide the family property, not to mention that the Xue family once suffered a loss and learned to do it. Good one time, this time they hid the family property very well, even if the sage came out to keep it, they would never find it.

He expects to give Chi'er [-]% of Xue's family property, which can be regarded as worthy of the child.

After being silent for a long time, Xue Yi finally sighed: "That's the only way to go."

They really can't afford to offend Wang Ziteng, and they can only wrong the child. Fortunately, the Xue family has a big business, and they can always make up for it in terms of money.

The Xue family can still sacrifice their children for the sake of safety, but although the Jia family does not need to sacrifice their children, they still have some headaches about the prince's return to Beijing.

In the past three years, many things have happened in Jia's family. First, Jia Min's marriage, and then the passing of Mrs. Jia and Mrs. Wang. Because of Mrs. Jia's death, Jia Daishan and his wife also rose directly from the master and wife. A level to become the old man and old lady.

At the same time, Jia Daishan also felt that he was getting old, so he asked his son to give up the title. Because of the achievements of the Jia family for many years, Jia Amnesty succeeded in successfully inheriting the position of Duke Rong.At the same time, Jia Daishan and his wife also moved to the Rongqing Hall, where they lived a happy life with their grandchildren.

When Jia Li heard that Prince Teng had returned to the capital, she couldn't hide her worry, "Old Master, what should I do?"

As soon as Wang left, Wang Ziteng returned to Beijing immediately. I don't know if Wang Ziteng would blame the Jia family for Wang's death?After all, on the bright side, this is Yu Ting's fault after all.

"What are you worried about?" Jia Daishan said indifferently: "Although the boy from the Wang family has been used by the Holy Spirit, he can't surpass our Jia family no matter what. If you give him three more guts, he won't be able to cause trouble for our Jia family. Besides, Mrs. Wang has been seriously ill for many years, so it's good to be able to delay until now, no matter what Wang Ziteng can do, he can't blame our Jia family for not taking good care of him."

Even Wang Zisheng, who was in Beijing, stopped talking. Wang Ziteng was far away in the northeast, and the situation was unknown, so they could be blamed for Wang's death.

"But..." Thinking of the disappointing Jia Zheng, Li became a little worried.

"You just need to take good care of Zhu'er and Yuanchun." Jia Daishan reminded: "According to the time, Mrs. Wang has been gone for more than half a year, and it's time to give Zheng'er a look. , don’t make trouble like Wang’s again.”

Jia Daishan said it easily, but Jia Lishi couldn't be as relaxed as him. Although Jia Zheng guarded the Wang family these years and didn't accept any housewives or aunts, his reputation outside was really bad.

Who in Beijing doesn't know that Jia Zheng stole his wife's dowry to purchase aphrodisiac medicines so much that he was even demoted to the second rank by the saint. It's just because of poor health, it's not that he really respects his first wife.

Not to mention that Jia Zheng only has the eighth grade, and he is a position that cannot be raised at all, and his future is hopeless. As long as a useless person like Jia Zheng is a family who loves his daughter, he is naturally unwilling to let his daughter marry. I'm afraid that the Jia family will also look down on them, but Jia Zheng's marriage has become a serious problem.

Jia Daishan sighed slightly, and had no choice but to say: "If..." Jia Daishan said vaguely, "If it's really hard to find, just find a passable one."

Hearing the meaning behind Jia Daishan's words, Jia Li's eyes lit up, and he thought about it: "If that's the case, I'll see you again in person."

If the standard is lowered, it will be easy to choose. There are always some families who don't cherish their daughters and will sacrifice their daughter's happiness for the Jia family's power.

Jia Daishan paused for a moment and then said: "You can let go of this family background, the most important thing is character. How can you say that Zheng'er only has two children, Zhu Ge'er and Yuan Chun, so you have to choose one to treat the child well."

This son is finished, but his grandson is still good, and he also knows his son's problems. If he can't choose a perfect one, at least he has to choose one with good character like Jia Lishi.

Jia Daishan added, "Choose one that looks like you."

What he is most grateful to Emperor Pingkang in this life is that he bestowed the Jia Li family on him as his wife, it is really his blessing to have such a wife.

Jia Lishi was stunned when she heard the words, she never expected to hear such a sentence from Jia Daishan's mouth, although it was just four simple words, but there was a lot of meaning in it, her lips moved, and finally she couldn't help turning around and wiping Tears, thousands of words, finally turned into a simple, very standard answer, "I will choose carefully."

Moved is moved, but for some things, it is too late after all.

In this way, before Prince Teng returned to Beijing, several families in the entire capital began to move. Just as Jia Lishi was helping Jia Zheng to see each other, Jia Lishi also received news of his daughter who had married far away in Suzhou.

Under Mrs. Lin's torture, Jia Min unfortunately had a miscarriage!

Hearing the news, Jia Lishi fainted on the spot.
