An old lady's life

Chapter 148 Transition Chapter Chapter

The weather is bad, and the heavy snow has made it difficult for people to travel. Under the severe cold sky in the north, many poor people can't bear it, and death incidents have begun. This is really not because the government is not doing anything. It is because every family has scriptures that are difficult to practice, and it is difficult for an upright official to judge family affairs. Some people are too foolish, filial or unkind, and treat one more than another, and the government can do nothing about it.

In this way, memorials were presented to the imperial court from all over the country every day. The emperor was depressed every day, and the courtiers followed the emperor's mood. Whatever the emperor's mood was, so were the courtiers' mood.

The Department of General Administration where Lin Hai works is extremely busy, because there are so many memorials, they need to sort them out one by one, and also have to make a summary, they are extremely busy all day long.The criminal department where Jia Amnesty works is also busy. Although there are no major cases to be forwarded, the backlog of cases is enough for them to specialize in research.Thanks to the last case of the Han family, Minister of the Ministry of Justice and You Shilang have seen Jia She's unique way of thinking, and he has been reused. Of course, he has an errand runner, and Jia Zhen is instructed by Uncle She to go around every day.

The Taichang Temple where Jia Jing lives is also extremely busy because of the arrival of the New Year's Eve. After all, a series of things such as the royal sacrifices during the New Year are arranged by the Taichang Temple. They must first check the safety of the Ancestral Temple. Where is the place? If you need repairs, you have to go to the Ministry of Works. This involves many departments, and it is extremely cumbersome to negotiate, because other people are also busy with their own affairs.

In this way, the 21 years of Changping have been quite low-key. The emperor had a long face throughout the New Year's Eve palace banquet. The officials and family members under him also knew the principle of low-key. The feast is over.

This is the first palace banquet that Hongye came to this world to attend, but she is very disappointed, because there are no legitimate empress dowagers and empresses in the harem of Emperor Changping. The rank of the concubines is not as high as that of Chaopin Gaoming's wife, so this palace banquet is very rigid, lacking a sense of excitement and majesty.

Originally, because of filial piety, the Rong Mansion planned to make it more lively on New Year’s Eve. The children’s favorite fireworks must be available. Unfortunately, because of concerns about the emperor’s mood, most officials in central Beijing did not set off fireworks this year, so the Rong Mansion had no choice but to hold on. Fireworks made the children unhappy for a while, and it was only when they talked about it that it made sense to them.

The first day of the lunar new year is the day of worshiping the ancestors, and the female relatives of the family cannot participate. Jia She and Jia Zheng took their three children to Ningfu and came back in about an hour.

Hongye and her family members stayed in the front hall, eating melon and fruit snacks, chatting and laughing, and saw Jia She and Jia Zheng come back. The three children were wearing new clothes, bouncing around very lively.

After sending the children to play, Hongye asked about ancestor worship. There are not many or few Jia family members living in Beijing. They are all descended from Jia Daishan and Jia Daihua's generation. Some got married early. Regardless of seniority, they can be the generation of great-grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

"Uncle is here too." Jia She said this, and the two brothers fell down on the bench. After a while, Jia Zheng said: "Uncle seems to be confessing his last words. After explaining to the clansmen, we must not do anything wrong. Not to mention taking part in the affairs of the royal family, live a good life with the elders, and continue the Jia family in a safe and healthy way."

Hongye let out a long sigh: "There's nothing you can do about it. It's a miracle that your uncle's body can last for another three years. You should take more time to visit him on weekdays."

In the next few days, it was the New Year's greetings. Rongfu's banquet was held on the fifth day of the first day. On the second, third, fourth, fourth and third days of the first day, Mrs. Jia Shezhang and Mrs. Jia Zheng Wang brought their children to visit the new year.

On the fourth day of the lunar new year, whether it is Rong Mansion or Ning Mansion, there are only two old people at home. When Hong Ye wakes up with someone to inquire about Jia Daihua, she runs to see Jia Daihua. She needs to tell him something in advance.

Hongye has not seen Jia Daihua for several months, and found that he has indeed lost a lot of weight, and his eyes are also extraordinarily chaotic, and the shrewdness is deeply hidden in the depths of his eyes.

"Siblings." Jia Daihua actually couldn't see the person in front of him clearly, the front was just a blur.

Hong Ye sighed: "Brother, just sit down, don't make too much effort." She sat five steps away from him, neither far nor near, anyway, she could hear her, so she could ensure that he could hear her.

Jia Daihua blinked, and finally gave up desperately. He could no longer see clearly, and he knew his body, but he still cared about his son and grandson in his heart, and he still couldn't just wait for death with peace of mind.

Hongye glanced at the servants waiting at the door, and said loudly, "Back back, ten meters away."

The servants immediately retreated to the long corridor at the entrance of the courtyard, where they could also see the situation inside the house. Although they couldn't hear the words in the house, they were always paying attention to the old man, so they could find out what happened in time.

"Brother, what I'm going to say next is our Jia family's century-old plan. Whether you agree or not, I will let Sheer Zhenger and Huer carry on."

Jia Daihua's ears twitched, and his expression was serious. In the past three years, judging from the changes in Rong Mansion and Ning Mansion, he no longer doubted Shi's intentions, as long as her ideas were really good for the Jia family.

"Tell me, all I know is that you won't harm the Jia family."

Hong Ye began to talk in detail, and within less than a cup of tea, he explained the general context clearly. The more Jia Daihua heard it, the more excited he became, and he felt ashamed. Staring at the three-acre land in central Beijing, seeking status for the Jia family, but never considering the continuation of the Jia family.

"Siblings, you are right. Neither the family nor the dynasty can last long, but the family is easier to pass on than the dynasty, because the dynasty is the target of all the people in the world, but the family is not, so I will do as you say." Jia Daihua Youyou With a sigh, he said in a long voice: "I can't see that grand scene. Before I die, I will tell Jing'er to listen to you and go with you."

Hongye couldn't comfort him either, he was indeed in his twilight years, and the power of an extraordinary person could restore his vitality.

Jia Daihua didn't take it seriously, he grunted, and said just now: "But the hidden guards and imperial guards in the hands of the emperor are all-pervasive, you must be careful. A dynasty is a process from weak to prosperous and then weak, and ours The emperor is just in a prosperous period, although I can't see the next emperor ascending the throne, but I can also deduce that there will be no problems with Dafeng between two or three generations of emperors."

Hongye nodded: "Don't worry, I have a sense of proportion. This is not something that happens overnight. It is a matter of decades. Zhen'er, Huer, Zhuer, Lianer and their generation may not be able to achieve it yet."

Jia Daihua thought for a while, then nodded: "However, we still have to be careful."

What should be said has been said, Hongye didn't stay long, seeing Jia Daihua's difficult situation, she ordered her servants to take good care of her, and she went back home directly.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Rong Mansion and Ning Mansion hosted a banquet together. The three married women, Jia Siyao, Jia Xiyao and Jia Min, came back early to help entertain the guests.

All the people who came to pay New Year's greetings were juniors, not of the same seniority as Hongye, so she just had to be a mascot quietly waiting for the guests to visit her, and she would give out red envelopes and wedding candies to the children.This is also a very happy thing, she is very happy to do it, even though she has lost a lot of money.

Jia Xiyao has been pregnant for four months. She stayed with Mrs. Hu and exchanged experience in raising babies and raising children. The two of them had warm eyes, and the brilliance of motherhood enveloped them.

In addition to entertaining guests, Jia Min and Luo Shi, the big cousin, stayed together and talked, and Hong Ye saw it as helpless. No matter how she re-educated Jia Min, the thought of three obediences and four virtues was rooted in Jia Min's heart, so she had to refrain from doing some extreme things. Things, but because I don't have a son, I don't have enough confidence, and I can't get rid of the fear in my heart.

At noon, I had lunch at Rong Mansion, and in the afternoon I arranged it myself. In the evening, the banquet was held at Ning Mansion. After dinner early, the guests went back home.

In this way, at night, the two governments calmed down.When Hongye and her son and daughter-in-law came back from Ningfu, the night was already very dark, the snowflakes that had stopped during the day would start to fall again.

Snow is also a form of water. Is God going to make up for the 21-year drought in Changping into this snow?

On the sixth day of the lunar new year, the day when the imperial court was opened, the emperor had already started to deal with the court affairs, but it was not yet the sun. The first big sun in the 22nd year of Changping was on the second day of the Lantern Festival.

Thinking of the Lantern Festival, I thought of the scene of Jia Yuanchun visiting his relatives in the Red Chamber, but Hongye thought, how could she get rid of the so-called virtuous concubine butterfly.However, the weather turned around. After the tenth day of the lunar new year, the snow gradually stopped, and finally it stopped snowing on the night of the fourteenth day.

On the day of Lantern Festival, the whole house had a hot Lantern Festival, and it was a very sumptuous meal in the evening. Afterwards, Hongye sent everyone away and asked them to go shopping. The street was very lively.

The Chinese New Year is not very lively, but the streets are indeed extraordinarily lively on the Lantern Festival. In the downtown area, there are several long streets with red lanterns zigzagging. If you look down from the sky, it looks like a winding and elegant red dance of fire.

Jia She and Zhang took their two sons, and Jia Zheng and Wang took Jia Zhu. The two families originally got together, but they separated when they met their colleagues or classmates.

Jia Amnesty met the right servant of the Ministry of Punishment, but the right servant did not bring his wife, but his two children. Mrs. Zhang watched Jia Hu and Jia Lian play with them, and occasionally chat with other wives and wives.

Jia Zheng met a lot of students, and some of them brought their wives and children out to play. Zhou He brought his wives and children with him. Yu Qiu was an exception and brought his mother with him.

Dealing with women's family members, Wang is not false. This is the first time for many students in Guiyuan Bookstore to see Jia Zheng's wife. Those who have wives or have not married are envious in their hearts. She is indeed a wife from a wealthy family, and she can get the right wife without fame.

When the number of pedestrians on the street gradually decreased and the shops closed, the Lantern Festival was over. When we returned to the mansion, it was already past Haishi, and the children were already too sleepy.

Hongye only took one look at her son and daughter-in-law, and sent them back to rest. She also went to bed to rest after washing up under the service of her maid.
