[Red Chamber] Mrs. Lin replaced her

"Uncle," seeing that Jia Jing and the others had disappeared, Jia Zicai said with a smile while supporting Jia Daishan, "What's the matter, don't you suddenly feel reluctant to part with me? If that's the case, Just say it, and I won't marry." Jia Zi's half-truth and half-false tone made it difficult to tell the truth from the truth, but it managed to make Jia Daishan laugh out loud.

"You girl," Jia Daishan looked at Jiazi amusedly, and said with a doting smile, "You dare to say anything. How can you not marry this marriage if you say you don't? If my brother is here, I will hear you If this is the case, I don't necessarily know how to deal with you!"

Jiazi stuck out his tongue, and retorted resolutely: "No way! Daddy is not willing to deal with me!" If Daddy was here, he would definitely not let me marry a feeble scholar who has no strength to restrain himself— —Jiazi secretly added, firmly believing that her brave father, Jia Daihua, would definitely look down on Lin Hai, a nerd who couldn't ride a horse or hold a bow, and would never find her such a husband-in-law.

"Azi," Jia Daishan hesitated for a while, finally sighed, and said in a low voice, "I want to tell you about Min'er." Talking about his daughter's marriage to his niece After all, Jia Daishan was still a little embarrassed, and for a while he didn't know how to speak.However, if Jia Min's marriage is not settled quickly, Jia Daishan is really worried that Jia's mother will do something irreversible.

Jia Daishan never expected that after Jia Min and Lin Hai's marriage fell through, Jia's mother was moved to marry Jia Min to the royal family again.This really disappointed Jia Daishan: In order to climb the dragon and become the phoenix, for the sake of wealth and glory, Jia's mother was able to completely ignore the life-long happiness of her own daughter, and pushed her own daughter into the fire pit time and time again.Perhaps Jia's mother didn't know, but Jia Daishan was clear: the death of the former three princes and concubines was not simple.Under such circumstances, unless Jia Daishan is crazy, how else could he promise Jia Min to the third prince?

What's more, Jinjin had already agreed to Jia Daishan before, and wanted to marry Jia Min and Lin Hai.But in the end, Jia Zi and Lin Hai were married now.This kind of change made Jia Daishan feel a little uneasy all the time, wondering whether he had offended the present by what he did or said, and his life was so trembling and frightened, it was naturally even more impossible for Jia Min gets involved with someone from the royal family.

Therefore, Jia Daishan, who has never cared about the affairs of the inner house, decided to go out in person and choose a good marriage for Jia Min.It's just that although Jia Daishan has a good relationship with all the adults in Beijing, the friendship between them is also very good.However, Jia Daishan really doesn't know much about the unmarried men in Beijing who are about the same age as Jia Min.He can only find someone to ask.

Originally, Jia Zi was the best candidate for Jia Daishan to inquire about unmarried men from aristocratic families in Beijing.After all, Jia Zi was like a boy since he was a child, he grew up on the streets of the capital, and he is familiar with the characters and dispositions of the sons of various aristocratic families in the capital, so her answers are naturally of great reference value.However, when Jia Zi went to Gusu, Jia Daishan had no choice but to inquire about Jia She first—although Jia She's friends were mostly cronies, they were better than his own random thoughts.

What Jia Daishan didn't expect was that Jia She had been paying attention to this matter for Jia Min.Upon hearing Jia Daishan's inquiry, Jia Amnesty recommended a person to Jia Daishan without even thinking about it, and said a lot of good things about that person.

Thinking of Jia She's strong recommendation, Jia Daishan couldn't help stroking his beard: He naturally knew the one recommended by Jia She, but he remembered that the kid should be Jia Zi's good friend.Therefore, Jia Daishan decided to ask Jia Zi first before making a decision.However, although Jia Zi came back, Jia Daishan never had a chance to talk to Jia Zi.Of course, there is a very important reason: Jia Daishan didn’t know how to speak—marriage of children has always been the work of women in the back house. It would be embarrassing enough for Jia Daishan to ask Jia Amnesty. The person who asked was his niece.

"About Xiao Min?" Jia Zi looked at Jia Daishan puzzled, and really didn't understand why Jia Daishan suddenly mentioned Jia Min.Then, he suddenly came to his senses, and couldn't help feeling slightly nervous: "What's wrong with Xiao Min? What happened? Is it... Is auntie trying to do something again?" Jia Zi knew everything about Jia Mu's little thoughts. Clearly.However, she never imagined that Mother Jia would have the idea of ​​the third prince - she didn't even need to think about it, but she would have trouble with the third prince's arrogant and arrogant virtue sooner or later.

Jia Daishan was stunned for a moment, and then said with a wry smile: "You really know." Actually, as an uncle, Jia Daishan still felt a little uncomfortable when he heard what Jia Zi said just now—Mother Jia is his wife after all.However, he knew better in his heart that Jia Zi had no other intentions at all, she just cared about Jia Min.

Jia Zi pursed his lips, and said in a solemn tone never before: "Uncle, Xiao Min is not suitable. Her temperament is too noble, and she cannot survive in such an environment. Besides," after a pause, Jia Zi Then he continued: "I think that a family like ours really doesn't need to use their daughters to seek such monstrous wealth and power. To be honest, with a family of two males, the current Second House is already very eye-catching. From a practical point of view, sooner or later, the Second Mansion will become an existence that you want to get rid of sooner or later."

Although Jia Zi's words were not too straightforward, Jia Daishan understood it right away.Looking at Jia Zi's rare and serious appearance, Jia Daishan nodded in relief: Finally, there is a sensible person in the Jia family - well, it would be great if this is a man.Jia Daishan sighed once again, why Jia Zi and Jia Min were not born as boys, otherwise, they can see the situation clearly with every penny and martial arts, which will surely ensure the long-term prosperity of the Jia family.

"Azi, you also know," Jia Daishan looked in the direction of the palace, and said softly: "With my identity, if I hadn't specifically asked for the grace of today, Min'er would definitely have participated in the draft. To be honest, uncle and I I never thought of letting Min'er enter the palace, or have anything to do with the royal family." Jia Daishan paused, and then continued: "However, your aunt... obviously doesn't think so."

Jia Zi sighed slightly: "Even if uncle can stop Xiao Min, don't forget that Yuan Chun is still there?" In Jia Zi's view, if Jia's mother's fantasy of being a relative of the emperor cannot be dispelled, then There is no way this kind of thing will ever end.

However, thinking of Jia Yuanchun, Jia Zi couldn't help but feel a bit of a toothache: She really couldn't figure it out, why did Jia's mother believe that Jia Yuanchun, who was born on the first day of the first lunar month, would have a great fortune?If children born on the first day of the first lunar month will have great fortune, then there may not be many people in the world who have great fortune—the world will be in chaos before long.

"Yuan'er?" Jia Daishan showed a determined smile on his face: "Min'er is eligible to participate in the election because her father is me, Duke Rong. But, do you think Yuan'er is also eligible to participate in the draft? "Jia Daishan's meaning is obvious: Jia Zheng's status will never match his, and the Rongguo Mansion will be inherited by Jia She in the future.Therefore, it is impossible for Jia Yuanchun to be eligible for the draft.

"Unless..." Jia Daishan paused for a moment before continuing, "In the future, she will enter the palace as a minor election."

In fact, Jia Daishan had guessed about Jia Mu's thoughts from the very beginning when she asked someone to teach Jia Min piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.However, Jiamu was his pillow after all, and he didn't want to live with mutual suspicion, so he never exposed Jiamu's little thoughts.Moreover, in Jia Daishan's view, it is also very good for girls to learn some things like piano, chess, calligraphy and painting-it can cultivate their sentiments and cultivate their temperament, so he followed Jia's mother's wish and asked Jia Min to learn those things .

However, as Jia Min got older, Jia's mother gradually showed her thoughts.Jia Daishan couldn't lie to himself anymore, he could only solve all the troubles secretly: trying to make Jia Min avoid the draft, and trying to stop those princes from inquiring about Jia Min, he was too busy.Finally, he chose a good marriage for Jia Min, but in the end it was ruined by today's hands.Therefore, for Jia Daishan now, the most important thing is to choose another marriage for Jia Min and make an appointment as soon as possible, so as to completely cut off Jia Mu's desire to use Jia Min to cling to the royal family.

As for Jia Yuanchun, Jia Daishan was never worried.Mother Jia would never be so stupid as to let her granddaughter go to serve others in the palace: if the daughter of the Jia family really enters the palace through the small election, then the face of the Jia family will be completely trampled under the feet of other four kings and eight princes, Completely reduced to the laughing stock of the capital.

Jia Zi nodded knowingly.As soon as she heard Jia Daishan's words, she understood: the ones who are drafted into the palace are the masters of the palace; while the ones selected by Xiaoxuan are palace maids who serve people.Even if it is a little better, it is nothing more than a companion of the princess, who takes the punishment for the princess.After all, Jia Yuanchun was Jia Zheng's eldest daughter and also Wang's niece, so how could she go to serve others in the palace!

"About Xiao Min," the question in his heart has been resolved, and Jia Zi can finally turn the topic back to the main topic with peace of mind: "Uncle means..."

"I asked She'er a few days ago," Jia Daishan said with a kind smile on his face, "About Min'er, he recommended someone to me."

Jia Zi looked at Jia Daishan puzzled: "Brother Xie recommended it?" Hearing Jia Daishan's tone, Jia Zi felt a little strange: the old man's tone, could it be that this person has something to do with her?Thinking of such an important matter, Jia Amnesty didn't even remind her in advance, Jia Zi gritted his teeth secretly: sooner or later, he will destroy all the antiques of this kid.

Jia Daishan nodded: "What do you think of Wei Cheng?"

"Xiao Weizi?" Jia Zi couldn't help being a little surprised, he never expected Jia She to actually recommend a reliable person: "Xiao... oh, Wei Cheng's biological mother died young, and his father also passed away two years ago. Before his father died, the family had already been divided. Therefore, if..." Looking around, he found that there was no one around, and his words would not affect Jia Min's reputation. Then he said: "If Xiao Min really marries him, he will be able to take charge of the family immediately. Moreover, Wei Cheng's elder brother with the same father and mother was killed by his father's concubine and brother from a concubine. It is Wei Cheng I was almost killed by those people back then. Therefore, Wei Cheng hated the so-called concubines and concubines, so he didn't have to worry about his family's troubles in the future. However, there is a problem..."

Originally, after hearing Jia Zi's introduction, Jia Daishan was already very satisfied with Wei Cheng; but he never expected that Jia Zi suddenly had a turning point.Seeing Jiazi's embarrassed look, Jia Daishan couldn't help being taken aback: Could it be another one who has already engaged?If Jia She dares to recommend someone who is engaged to him, let's see if he doesn't break his puppy legs.

"But what?" Jia Daishan felt that when he asked this question, his confidence was a bit lacking: "Is there any problem?" After all, it was because of Jia Min's marriage that he and Jia's mother have been tortured for a long time. Jia Daishan's heart is not at ease now. : Why is Min'er's marriage so difficult?

"There's only one small problem," Jia Zi gestured with his little finger before continuing, "Although Wei Cheng looks refined, he has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he is really good at knowledge. ..." Jia Zi didn't know how to describe Wei Cheng, whose educational level was similar to his own, and could only truthfully say: "But Xiao Min, uncle also knows that her literary talent is really... If she was a man, Maybe our Jia family can produce a Tanhualang."

Jia Zi was not exaggerating when he said this, even Jia Jing, the only intellectual in the Jia family, who had passed the Jinshi, would be ashamed of Jia Min's literary talents.Therefore, if the thesis is good, Wei Cheng is naturally not worthy of Jia Min.

However, Jia Zi felt that there were some difficult problems, but in Jia Daishan's view, it was not a problem at all.

"What's this? Her father and I, didn't we also practice martial arts since we were young, so we don't understand art and science!" Jia Daishan heaved a sigh of relief. He thought it was such a big deal. What does it matter if Wei Cheng is a scholar or a martial artist?The biggest problem now is Wei Cheng's filial piety.Oh, there is another one, which is Wei Cheng's meaning... Thinking of this, Jia Daishan looked at Jia Zi, his eyes were full of meaning: Wei Cheng and Jia Zi are good friends, why not ask Jia Zi to find out?

"Then uncle means..." Jia Zi pursed his lips, and softly speculated on Jia Daishan's intentions: "I'll find a way to let Xiao Min and Wei Cheng meet secretly?" Although this seems to be against the rules, but But Jia Zi didn't want Jia Min to marry a stranger whose name he had only heard of like himself - Jia Min still had to be willing for this marriage.

Jia Daishan thought for a while, but did not answer Jia Zi's question, but directly changed the topic to another aspect: "Does Wei Cheng have any other elders?" In the end, Jia Daishan decided to inquire about Wei Cheng's tone from other aspects .If it doesn't work, ask Jia Zi to go to Wei Cheng again: Even if Jia Zi looks like a boy again, he is still an unmarried girl after all, so it is naturally inconvenient to talk about such things.

"Auntie!" Jia Zi thought for a while before saying, "Feng Tang's mother and Wei Cheng's mother are direct sisters."

Jia Daishan nodded with a smile, and quickly made a decision in his heart to invite Old General Feng to drink tea tomorrow—let's start with his uncle.Then, he directly turned the topic to another person who worried him—Jia She.

"Azi, about the pardon..."

Jia Zi was obviously confused by Jia Daishan's sudden change of subject: When this old man changed the subject, wouldn't he say hello in advance?

Jia Daishan didn't notice Jiazi's expression, but he still said worriedly: "It stands to reason that She'er is my eldest son, and the Rongguo Mansion should be handed over to him in the future..." Jia Daishan didn't think about it at all. I wanted to tell Jiazi these things, but now that the conversation has started, the words that he has been holding down in his heart can be blurted out naturally.

Hearing Jia Daishan's words, Jiazi's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help looking at Jia Daishan in surprise: What does the old man mean by saying that?Does he still want Jia Zheng to inherit the Rongguo Mansion?Don't even look at Jia Zheng's virtues, can he inherit the Rongguo Mansion?If he inherits the Rongguo Mansion, is there still a way for Jia She and his son to survive...

Jia Zi's thoughts were spinning and turning, and he kept thinking about how to say something nice for Jia She, so as to dispel Jia Daishan's absurd idea: Don't say that her relationship with Jia She is good, but it's not good. She couldn't just sit and watch the title that should belong to Jia Amnesty being snatched away by Jia Zhengsheng.

If it doesn't work, let the eldest brother come forward as the patriarch——Jia Zi secretly made up his mind: Although Jia Jing, the patriarch, still lacks confidence when facing an elder like Jia Daishan.

Jia Daishan sighed: "Azi, you also know that Sheer is playful and confused. In the future, he will inherit the Rongguo Mansion, and he still needs a lot of help from you and Jinger. Rongguo Mansion cannot be allowed to have such a large foundation. destroyed in his hands."

Perhaps from the perspective of the world, not to mention married women, even unmarried women are not allowed to meddle in family affairs.However, it is not feasible to put such a popular view on Jazi.Just because Jiazi bathed in blood on the battlefield, he used his own hands to avenge his father and the patriarch of the Jia clan, and because Jiazi relied on his own military exploits, he earned his father and brother the honor of being a prince. If she manages Jia's affairs, no one will have any objections.Even if the patriarchs of other families mention it, they will definitely give a thumbs up and agree - if they have the ability, they will give birth to such a proud and upright daughter.

Jia Zi heaved a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Uncle. Brother She is naughty, but he is timid, so he will never cause any disaster." In Jia Zi's view, instead of worrying about Jia Zi She will cause trouble in the future, so it's better to worry about Jia She's mother: as long as Jia's mother is obedient and doesn't get involved, no big trouble will happen to Rongguo Mansion.

"I just want to tell you." Jia Daishan also nodded with a smile: "You know, you can't write two Jia characters in one stroke, and the Ningrong Second Mansion is a family." Jia Daishan was never worried about Jia's mother. In the future, he will dictate the affairs of the Rongguo Mansion.In his opinion, no matter how careful Jia's mother is, she should understand what it means to "be obedient to the son when the husband dies". After a hundred years from now, it is natural for Jia She to make the decision about the Rongguo Mansion.

Jia Zi was about to nod his head, but suddenly felt something was wrong, he couldn't help but turned his head abruptly, and stared at Jia Daishan with concern: "Uncle, are you feeling unwell? I'm going to ask the imperial physician." Originally, Jia Zi didn't pay much attention, after all It is normal for Jia Daishan, as his father, to care about Jia Min's marriage.However, as soon as Jia Min's story was finished, Jia Daishan directly talked about Jia Amnesty and the future of the Rongguo Mansion, something was wrong: what happened, why did Jia Daishan seem to be explaining the funeral.

"No, no," Jia Daishan hurriedly stopped Jia Zi, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm fine. Your uncle and I are in good health, and the pulse is checked regularly, so don't worry." I have to say that Jia Zi looked anxious at the moment , it still made Jia Daishan very useful: he really is a good boy, and he really cares about his uncle.

"Is it really okay?" Jia Zi looked at Jia Daishan suspiciously, with a look of disbelief: "Uncle, if you feel uncomfortable, just tell me directly, but you must never hide your illness from the doctor, you know?"

Jia Daishan said with a smile: "I'm just rushing to talk today, so I'll tell you. Don't worry, I'm really fine."

In fact, Jia Daishan's body is really not a problem, he is mainly tired - he has too many facts to ponder.Ever since Jinjin gave Jiazi and Lin Hai a marriage, Jia Daishan has been thinking hard about the meaning of today's move, thinking about when he accidentally offended Jinjin, which made Jinjin afraid of himself... Time passed Long, doesn't Jia Daishan think more and more, and worry more and more!

In addition, Jia Mu's non-stop small calculations on Jia Min's marriage also made Jia Daishan terrified: At this time, if the Jia family gets involved in the royal affairs, wouldn't that add fuel to the flames?In case it really annoys today...

Moreover, Jia She, the heir of the Rongguo Mansion, did not live up to expectations. Apart from drinking flowers and wine, he listened to ditties every day; and his second son, Jia Zheng, was also worthless. He had studied for so many years without even getting a reputation.He is already old, and he still has to think about the future of Rongguo Mansion...

With so many things backlogged in Jia Daishan's mind, he had no one to talk about, so naturally he became more and more anxious.Therefore, after finally taking the opportunity to confide his troubles to the most outstanding descendants of the Jia family, Jia Daishan naturally wanted to express all the worries that were suppressed in his heart.However, Jia Daishan did not expect that his confession would actually scare Jiazi.

Jia Zi didn't know what Jia Daishan was thinking, so she looked at Jia Daishan's haggard look recently, and said suspiciously: "Uncle, if you are not feeling well, you must ask the imperial physician to take a look earlier, do you hear me? Forget it, I should find someone to invite me now!"

Seeing that Jia Daishan wanted to stop himself again, Jia Zi patted Jia Daishan's arm quickly: "Uncle, you listen to me. It doesn't take much trouble to ask the imperial doctor to come over to take a look. It's better if nothing happens." He called the servant from far away with gestures, sent him to the imperial hospital to find the imperial doctor, and then said with a smile: "Uncle is afraid that my aunt and the others will find out, are you worried? It's okay, then I'll take a pulse in our mansion. "

Hearing that someone from the Duke's Mansion was looking for him, the imperial doctor came quickly.After carefully examining Jia Daishan's pulse, the imperial physician smiled with a beard and said: "Don't worry, General Jia. The Duke is in good health, but he is a little over-thinking, so just drink a little decoction to relieve the fire. "While the imperial physician went to prescribe a prescription for Jia Daishan, he admired Jia Zi, who is a niece, in his heart, and said to Jia Daishan, an uncle, "You really are a filial daughter!"

Jia Daishan was fine, and Jia Zi was really relieved.Although Jia's mother only treats her with face, Jia Daishan, the uncle, treats her well and loves her very much.Therefore, she still cares about Jia Daishan very much.

He sent Jia Daishan back to Rongguo Mansion together with Jia Jing who rushed over when he heard that the mansion invited an imperial physician, and told the servants around Jia Daishan to take good care of Jia Daishan's queen, Jia Zi and Jia Jing returned to Ningguo Mansion .

"Ah Zi," Jia Jing looked at Jia Zi hesitantly, scratched his head, really didn't know how to talk to Jia Zi about what he was going to say next: "That... big brother..."

The author has something to say: Jia Daishan was relieved too soon.

After much deliberation, Jia Min decided to give birth to Wei Ruolan.However, Wei Ruolan here will neither die young nor marry Shi Xiangyun...
