Amnesty's daily life
Chapter 247
Mrs. Xue's words were very straightforward, at least Mrs. Wang understood it when she heard it.But she just pretended that she didn't know anything, and replied indifferently: "That child Rong'er, I'll be fourteen after the Chinese New Year. In addition, his birthday is big, so it can be counted as fifteen."
Usually, when calculating age, the calculation is based on one year old plus one year old. Rong'er's birthday is in February, and her fourteenth birthday has passed, so it doesn't matter to add one year old.
"It's okay, Bao girl will be [-] years old." Mrs. Xue looked at Na Youshi carefully, trying her best to recall what she heard about Ningguo Mansion in her mind.
Ningguo Mansion was also one of the most noble families in the capital, but that was a long time ago.In fact, now that Emperor Tai'an has withdrawn the plaque of Ningguo Mansion, even though Rong'er is the one who inherited the title, he only won the title of a third-class general.And because he was really not good at his homework and had never taken the imperial examination, Meng Zuyin got a spot as a fruit wine supervisor before, but if he didn't want to go to school, this spot would be useless.On the other hand, his old man, Jia Zhen, was absurd in the early years, but he was a lot more honest during those years when he was expelled from the house. In addition, Jia Amnesty did not completely abandon him, and now he has become a fifth grade He is a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy.
Calculated in this way, Rong'er's advantage is obvious.
First of all, the family background is noble, after all, they are the descendants of the Duke, and the situation of their family is different from other families. In fact, the head of the family is Rong Er himself, not his father Jia Zhen.Thirdly, Rong'er is also a nobleman, even if she is only a third-class general, it is still a title bestowed on her.At the same time, although their family lost the plaque of the Duke's Mansion, their family property was still there.What's more, Jia Zhen started as a fifth-rank civil servant. As her eldest son and only son, Rong'er's life in this life can be regarded as safe and worry-free.
Of course, the disadvantages cannot be ignored either.
There is a big difference in whether there is a plaque of the Duke's Mansion. It can be said that if the marriage was engaged two years earlier, Ronger's choices would be much wider, but it is definitely impossible now.And then, even though Rong'er himself has a title, it is the last time in his life to inherit it, and it will be reduced to the point where there is no title to attack.For the same example, let's look at Jia Min's married husband, Lin Hai and the others are also in the same situation. Only when his father received the gift of the Evergreen Emperor in his father's generation did he allow another generation, but on Lin Hai's side, he can only let him suffer. Going to school to compete for this fame.Unexpectedly, Lin Hai is a person with real talent and learning, but Rong'er is not. His talent is almost equal to Jia Zheng's. He is not extremely bad but he can't even think about passing the imperial examination.In addition, Rong'er has a fatal flaw.
He had been engaged before.
If it's an ordinary marriage talk, it's okay, no matter how many times you talk about it, there will be no one on the left or right chatting with others for nothing.But Rong'er's engagement was actually three-match and six-engagement, and it really went through a clear path.In fact, when his unmarried daughter-in-law, Qin Shi, "died" from illness, it had been less than a month since they got married.
What should I say in such a situation?I can only rejoice that Rong'er is a man, if she is a woman, she will probably have to be a widow.No matter how bad it is, the next time we talk about relatives, we will definitely not find a suitable family, so we can only choose the next one.After all, things like Kefu and Kewi are still very taboo these days.
In the eyes of those who pay more attention to it, such a situation is equivalent to sending it to someone's door as a successor.Even if it is not in essence, can people not have lumps in their hearts?The poor Qin family was suppressed by force, but what if the Qin family was a little stronger and forced Rong'er to send Qin's body to the ancestral grave?To be honest, this kind of situation is not completely absent. After all, in terms of etiquette, from the moment the six rituals are completed, Qin has been his legitimate wife.
This is also the reason why Rong'er once put on an attitude of not discussing marriage after Qin's "death".It is true that even if the world is a little more tolerant towards men, if their family immediately discuss marriage shortly after Qin's "death", they will definitely be stabbed in the back.Rong'er is not Jia She, she is so brazen and doesn't care about other people's eyes, in fact, even if Jia She is good, she will never challenge the world's three views on this kind of matter.
The dead are great.
Regardless of whether or how many mistakes the deceased made, they are all gone. As a living person, we must show an attitude for the world to see.
Fortunately, Rong'er's marriage was announced very early, not to mention that it has only been delayed for more than a year now, even if it is delayed for a few years later, there is nothing to worry about.These days, there are various reasons for women not being able to marry, but there is only one possibility for men not being able to marry a wife, and that is poverty!
Rong'er is rich, and his family's foundation is by no means inferior to that of the severely injured Xue's family.It's just that he cherishes his reputation more than his father, and since he is young, he simply waited for another two years, when the rumors have completely passed, and when no one in the capital mentions the Qin family, he will slowly search for a family. Good marriage.
But Mrs. Xue's family doesn't know the inside story here, not even Mrs. Wang.After all, the former Ningguo Mansion family, from Jia Jing to Jia Zhen, to the current Patriarch Rong'er, were all closer to Jia She's house.
What Mrs. Xue's family knows is what is known to outsiders.She knew that Rong'er's title could not be passed on to the next generation, and she also knew that Rong'er had a daughter-in-law who died of illness before entering the family.
At that moment, Mrs. Xue's mind became active. No one is perfect. Wouldn't it be a good time for the two families to get married?After all, apart from her slightly inadequate background, her precious girl is excellent in everything else.The only problem is that this marriage is somewhat inappropriate, not because of inappropriate seniority, but because Mrs. Xue is worried that Mrs. Wang will hinder it.
In fact, Mrs. Xue's family has already felt Mrs. Wang's mentality.Just like Bao girl in her family dislikes Baoyu so much, Mrs. Wang may not really take Bao girl to heart, or is she just thinking about riding a donkey to find a horse?
The mentality of the two families is the same, they completely regard each other as their last way out, so don't dislike each other!
But if this is the case, Mrs. Xue's family will not be able to ask Mrs. Wang to be the matchmaker.After thinking about it again and again, he finally aimed at the pregnant Wang Xifeng again.
Wang Xifeng who received the invitation was also dumbfounded.
It is true that Wang Xifeng is really thick-skinned, otherwise he would not have been able to accept the heavy gift from Xue's family before, and then he would use the pregnancy as an excuse to stay behind closed doors.But at that time, she was indeed insecure for a month, but now she is already very secure, plus she is young and healthy, no matter how you think about it, it is impossible to decline this matter.In desperation, Wang Xifeng could only drag Sister Ying to make up for it, thinking that she could use other things later, and dismissed Mrs. Xue's family early.
As a result, before Mrs. Xue's family entered the door, Sister Ying had already settled the score with Wang Xifeng with her fingers: "Whoever sees has a share, half of each person!" If you want to use her as a shield, of course you have to pay a price.
Fortunately, Wang Xifeng is greedy, but he doesn't feel sorry for things that he hasn't got yet.Immediately, he made a decision and said: "It's done, all the gifts for meeting later will be yours, and half of the other gifts will be given to each person."
The sister-in-law and sister-in-law quickly agreed to divide the spoils, and sat in the warm pavilion in the east courtyard, waiting on airs for Mrs. Xue's visit.
According to Wang Xifeng's guess, there are two reasons for Mrs. Xue's visit again.One is that they are still looking forward to living in. This is obviously impossible. It used to be the Rongguo Mansion, but now it is the Rongninghou Mansion. No matter what happens, it is impossible for the Xue family to occupy the place and not leave.Of course, there is another possibility, which is to want Wang Xifeng to propose marriage to Xue Baochai. If this is the case, Wang Xifeng really doesn't care. He will help the relatives to look around, and it's not an immediate decision, so it doesn't matter.
The idea was very good. When Mrs. Xue's family really came to visit and explained her intentions in a roundabout way, Wang Xifeng was dumbfounded.
"Rong, Rong'er?"
Of course, it is impossible for Mrs. Xue to ask as soon as they meet, why don't you help me as a matchmaker and tell my precious girl to Rong Ercheng from the next door house?In this case, Wang Xifeng was not just dumbfounded, but completely confused.In fact, Mrs. Xue's family only greeted Rong'er very tactfully.
The problem is, you are an in-law who needs to turn a corner to talk, and you have nothing to do when you are full to greet your next-door relative who also needs to turn a corner...
If there were no articles here, Wang Xifeng would have wanted to write her surname upside down.
But Rong'er and Baochai, why can't they get along?
In terms of seniority, Rong'er is Wang Xifeng's cousin, while Baochai is her cousin.In terms of background, Rong'er is the sole heir of an honorable family, while Baochai is the daughter of an imperial merchant.In terms of talent and learning, Rong'er's literary talent is almost equal to that of Jia Zheng's idiot, who has completely extinguished the way to take the imperial examination, but Baochai is known as a talented woman with aura...
The only similarity between the two is that regardless of whether Rong'er's family or Baochai's family, they both have a lot of money.But the problem is that getting married is not a family matter. Is it possible that whoever has more money can marry a princess or a prince?That's over, Twelve doesn't have much money, but has a future and talent.
"Feng girl?" Mrs. Xue looked at Wang Xifeng expectantly. Although she had known this niece of her natal family for more than a year, she knew that Wang Xifeng was brought up by her own mother. Yes, it doesn't matter whether it's temper or ability to speak, it's a typical Wang's female demeanor.
Therefore, Wang Xifeng must have understood, it depends on whether she is willing to help.
To be honest, if Mrs. Xue's family just asked her to help keep an eye out for suitable candidates, Wang Xifeng would really be able to agree. As for whether she will pay attention to it seriously, it depends on her conscience.But now Mrs. Xue's family already has a candidate in her mind, let her be the middle man, and go to say goodbye...
Inexplicably, Wang Xifeng faltered.
She is also a mother herself, if she can have a son this time.Ten years later, someone came to her and said, I want to tell your son a daughter-in-law of a businessman's family to be his wife... She will definitely let the servants use a big broom to blow her out.
How much would it cost to marry the daughter of a businessman?Even if it is an imperial merchant, isn't that also a merchant?And this is different from Mrs. Xue's marriage to Father Xue. Marrying her daughter to a merchant will not affect her family at all, and she can get a helping hand.But what are the benefits of marrying a woman from a merchant family?All the sons and daughters born will fall from birth, and what if the family tradition is not good?
Marrying a wife is unvirtuous and harms three generations! !
Wang Xifeng quickly glanced at Sister Ying who was sitting next to her, and saw that this girl was completely dumbfounded, completely forgetting the escape plan that the two of them had discussed just now.At that moment, Wang Xifeng decided to go all out, resorting to the ultimate means of suppressing the bottom line.
"Ouch, ouch... Er girl, why does my stomach suddenly hurt, ouch... hurry up and get someone to call the doctor, ouch, it hurts so bad..."
Sister Ying shuddered shiveringly, and suddenly woke up from the stunned state, bounced up on the spot, and rushed out the door with a whoosh, and immediately the small courtyard outside became lively.Not long after, Wang Xifeng and the two nuns who were serving in front of her rushed over, and together they sent her back to the room.As for Mrs. Xue's family, someone sent her out politely.
In another quarter of an hour, Brother Lian ran back with a frightened expression on his face, followed by Nala Shuxian who was also frowning and worried.
At that time, Wang Xifeng was in the room angrily welcoming her sister: "Second girl! I said, are you short-hearted? Isn't this what we discussed? Otherwise, why do I have to welcome Mrs. Xue with me?" What about your brain? First you pretended to be stupid and ignored me, then I used the last trick, and you actually believed it! My God, don’t tell me, you not only called the doctor, but also told me ……Well."
Come on, there's no need to ask, brother Lian has already run in sweating, it's no wonder he was sweating all over his forehead in March.
After a while, Nala Shuxian also came in.
Wang Xifeng really wanted to look up and sigh, but in fact all she could do was cover her face with a handkerchief, and use her free hands to push and push Yingjie who was standing on the bedside.
Sister Ying had a look of wanting to cry but no tears.
"Brother, sister-in-law is fine, I made a fuss...Mum, I seem to be doing something stupid again..."
Brother Lian went from being panicked at the beginning to dumbfounded later, and finally let out a sigh of complete helplessness: "Second girl, I can only agree with Cong'er's words. In our family, you are the only one, and you are the only one." , the most like dad."
This is definitely not a compliment.
Poor Sister Ying pouted with grievance on her face, she is so pitiful, isn't she?But she was dumbfounded by Mrs. Xue's concern about Rong'er, but before she could recover, Wang Xifeng used the ultimate ultimate move.Even though she did meet with her ward before, she was completely overwhelmed by her fright.
But at this time, the maid outside came in and whispered: "That... the doctor is here."
"It's all here, let the doctor take a look at it, and you can feel at ease if there is nothing wrong." Nala Shuxian looked helpless, she was completely trained by these children, but fortunately nothing happened. , "Forget it today, but don't play this kind of joke in the future."
Wang Xifeng realized that these words were spoken to herself, and hurriedly promised: "I will never see Mrs. Xue again!"
So, is there any necessary connection between the two?
Before Nala Shuxian could figure it out, the doctor had already been brought in by the maid.Nala Shuxian simply stopped asking, and just watched the doctor take Wang Xifeng's pulse for diagnosis.After a while, the doctor said: "Second Grandma Lian is a little bit angry, and there is no need to prescribe a prescription. It will be good to eat less food later on. Try not to eat too greasy meat and meat, eat more light, appetizing and easy to digest."
This kind of diagnosis is actually the same as saying that Wang Xifeng is fine, but since you all asked me to come here, then I will pick some bones and find some faults.
So, after the doctor had finished speaking, Nala Shuxian asked someone to invite him out. As for the meal arrangement, the nanny at the east courtyard was watching over it. Besides, Wang Xifeng was not the kind who would be willful in such matters. people.
Now that it's all right, La Shuxian should leave, but she is still a little worried.
"Can you tell me what happened before?" Seeing that Wang Xifeng was about to cover her face with a handkerchief again, Nala Shuxian guessed that it was something embarrassing to say, so she turned her eyes and called out by name, "Second girl You say."
Sister Ying felt that she was that unlucky wretch.
Unexpectedly, then La Shuxian had to listen to what she said.
"Mrs. Xue sent a message to see sister-in-law earlier, but sister-in-law was a little guilty, so she pulled me over to strengthen her courage." As she said that, sister Ying saw Wang Xifeng glare at her secretly.Seeing this, she decided to go all out, "It's really my sister-in-law who pulled me to embolden me. We've discussed it before, and I'll give you all the presents. If there's any other gift, then everyone who sees me will get half of it!"
"Get to the point." Nala Shuxian really doesn't want to know how much her daughter and daughter-in-law are lacking. She just wants to find out what role the Xue family plays here.
"Well, it's actually very simple. Mrs. Xue has taken a fancy to Rong'er and seems to be planning to match Rong'er and Baochai together. I was stunned at the time, and before I recovered, my sister-in-law Ouch, ouch, and then... you will know."
Looking at Sister Ying with a listless head, and Wang Xifeng who buried her face in the veil again, Nala Shuxian sighed: "You two! That's all, it's just to help talk about marriage, in fact, it's also There's no need to make such a fuss."
No fuss?
Wang Xifeng lifted the veil and looked at Nala Shuxian, and couldn't help asking: "What if this is Jing'er? Someone told Jing'er about the merchant's prostitute daughter, Madam, would you order someone to use a big broom to blow him out? "
Before La Shuxian could open her mouth, Sister Ying exclaimed: "Sister-in-law, how did you know that the Xue family had a crush on Jing'er earlier?"
Nala Shuxian: "...First, no matter what, I can't do such a thing as throwing people out of the house with a big broom. Second, talking about a relationship is about your love and my willingness. You don't want to directly That’s right, it’s nothing like this. Thirdly, Mrs. Xue’s family has taken a fancy to Rong’er, girl Feng, you just have to promise, whether you want to tell Rong’er later, that’s your business, even if you don’t say it , when Mrs. Xue's family asks, you can pretend to be embarrassed and keep silent, her family is the girl, and she will never ask the bottom line."
"So, you two are stupid!" Brother Lian concluded.
But just as he finished speaking, Wang Xifeng and Sister Ying gave him a fierce slap in the face.At that moment, Nala Shuxian sighed again, but this time she said to brother Lian: "If you are not sure that you will not be retaliated against, please be careful."
Brother Lian: "..." Mother, you are too late! !
"Okay, girl Feng, take a good rest. Second girl, let's go." Nala Shuxian took away sister Ying, but left brother Lian alone to face Wang Xifeng who was in a delicate mood.However, it didn't matter to Nala Shuxian, and Wang Xifeng couldn't do anything to murder her husband.
After bringing Sister Ying back to Rongxi Hall, Nala Shuxian asked people to go to the study to have a look, and if they met Jia She, they called him over.
After giving these instructions, Nala Shuxian beckoned to let Yingjie sit next to her on the kang of the warm pavilion: "Why did you scare you like that? I also saw that girl Baochai, her family background is a big flaw." , but the others are not so bad. Being with Rong'er is indeed a bit high-profile, but if Rong'er herself doesn't mind, this marriage is not bad."
Putting it in someone else's house is the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker.But who made Rong'er's family a special case?His father, Jia Zhen, put the house just as a decoration, and Rong'er, the head of the family, had the final say on everything in the house.
To put it bluntly, the success of this marriage mainly depends on Rong'er's own wishes.What if he was a beauty lover?Baochai's appearance and figure, even in the capital city where beauties gather, are considered to be superior.
"Isn't it because Rong'er doesn't like it?" Sister Ying's face collapsed, "Rong'er said before that he didn't like plump women. At that time, I thought he was mocking me, and I chased after him so angry. Go up and beat him up. He also said that he hates women who can write poems and fus the most, and what he hates the most is the person who forces his husband to study because he likes to study. By the way, he laughed awkwardly once. Sister Baochai is not talking about her figure and her studies, but about when our Jia family fell to this level, and it is shameful to call a merchant woman a sister and vaguely take her as the leader. The face of the ancestors."
Nala Shuxian: "..." One or two are not good things! !
"Mother, can you tell me that I won't be frightened by Mrs. Xue's words? Rong'er's mouth is worse than that of the second elder brother. He is like my father. Once he talks to someone he knows, his mouth It's as if he's been poisoned. Fortunately, he can put on a show in his daily life, and he's fine in front of strangers."
This is also the reason why Nala Shuxian has never noticed Rong'er's true nature, not because of unfamiliarity, probably because Nala Shuxian is like a real elder, so that Rong'er dare not make mistakes easily.But it doesn't matter in front of Sister Ying, the difference between the two of them is only one and a half years, so it is more appropriate to say that they are playmates who have been rambunctious together since childhood rather than aunt and nephew.No, if one didn't pay attention, he poured out all the thoughts in his heart.
So, it's over?
"Since Rong'er has said so, let's put this matter to rest." Who let Rong'er be the master of their family?In fact, even if Jia Zhen is the one who is in charge today, Rong'er is so reluctant, Jia Zhen can't force him.The most important thing is that if Rong'er has a bad temper, she will definitely give the other party a shame.
——Be virtuous with Jia She!
"Let me tell you, Rong'er definitely wants to be the prostitute's daughter of an official's family. Just looking at how much he cares about his own reputation, you can tell that he attaches great importance to family status. Then, it's best to be thin, weak, gentle Virtuous. In fact, he didn't respond to the Qin family before."
Qin?
Nala Shuxian frowned slightly when she thought of the troublesome things here.But soon, she said: "Tell your father to ask Rong'er later, he is not young anymore, and he is the only child in the family. It's time to consider getting married."
"Yo, Shuxian, when did you get so free?"
Jia Amnesty lifted the curtain and walked in. First, he glanced at Sister Ying, and said, "What's wrong with the second girl? Did she cause trouble? Was she scolded? Hahahahaha!"
Sister Ying was so angry that her stomach hurt instantly, she ground her teeth and said, "No, I'm just worried about my nephew's marriage!"
"Your nephew? Rong'er?" Jia Amnesty looked at Sister Ying earnestly, "It seems that it's not that your mother is too busy, but that you have nothing to do when you're full. So busy, Why don't you go and tidy up your dowry? Let me tell you, Cong'er is about to get married... Ahh! It's Cong'er who is going to marry a wife, and you have a big birthday, and it's time to celebrate your 16th birthday at the end of the month. At that time, she should be considered a 17-year-old girl. The other side of the Zhang family didn't mention it before, I guess it will be your turn after Cong'er's marriage is over."
"I'm about to get married. Before leaving the house, why don't you let me care more about my little nephew who grew up with me when I was young, and who has been beaten by me hundreds of times... Lifetime event?"
"Why didn't you get suffocated after you finished speaking in one breath?" Jia Amnesty confronted Sister Ying, "They have fathers and mothers, and besides, I haven't heard of any aunt who hasn't left the cabinet. The marriage of your nephew?"
"What's the matter? Last year, the second elder brother asked me worriedly, what if Baoyu couldn't marry a wife in the future? I said he was just eating carrots and worrying about it, and he was still angry."
Seeing that the father and daughter were fighting again, Nala Shuxian pinched the center of her brows with a headache and hurriedly called a stop.
In the end, Sister Ying was honest, but Jia Amnesty still didn't stop: "Lian'er is so stupid? Hahahaha, I knew that he was stupid when he was young, but what I didn't expect is that he is still so stupid when he grows up. It’s true, seeing old age at the age of three is silly and silly.”
After a pause, Jia Amnesty straightened his face slightly, and said, "You really don't need to care about Rong'er's marriage. It's not that he can't marry a wife, but he doesn't plan to get married in the past two years. As for the reason, Shuxian, you probably He can guess some, and when the rumors pass, he will think of ways to accumulate some merits, and he will naturally think of it at that time."
After hearing this, Sister Ying couldn't help but wonder: "Accumulate achievements? What achievements?"
"He doesn't have the ability to study. Naturally, he has to find a way to go to the army to accumulate merit. Don't worry, he doesn't need to go to the battlefield. Besides, he doesn't have the ability. I am also waiting for news. The Holy Majesty said earlier, in order to grant a Go to the house that fits his status, and then there will probably be some compensation. I am waiting, if the compensation is not good, I will find a way to let him go to my side. It is not the Ministry of Households, but the Xiaoqiying, to influence him Riding and archery is not too bad."
If the road to the imperial examination fails, then the only way to go is the military commander.No one expected Rong'er to reach the sky in one step, but it's not too difficult to get the position of military attache in the capital of the fifth or sixth rank.In the final analysis, both Ningrong and Rong's families were from military backgrounds, and Rong'er only hoped to gain a prestigious position, and had no intention of learning from her ancestors to lead troops in battle.
That's much easier.As a human being, you are not afraid of being incompetent, but you are afraid of having a high vision if you are incompetent.
"Rong'er is still young. For a man, it's not a problem to get married at the age of eighteen or nineteen. Before, I had been urging Cong'er for fear that having him in the way would hinder your marriage. Fortunately, the Zhang family The other end is very sensible, and in turn comforted me, saying that the two children are both young, and they will be more sensible and harmonious in the later years. But what is Rong'er afraid of? His father is his only child, so if there is any delay It's not a problem. As for the fourth girl, I have greeted Brother Zhen before. What he means is that the marriage is arranged by me, and when the time comes, we will go from him. After all, our family only adopted the fourth girl. rather than succession."
In fact, her father, Jia Jing, should have the final say on Xichun's matter.But who made Jia Jing sent to the deep mountains and old forests by Emperor Tai'an?Although there will still be letters coming in every year and festival, I think I know that Jia Jing will never be able to return to the capital in his life.No, if he is gone, he can still go to Beijing for the funeral.In addition, Rong'er can completely pretend that there is no such person.
Putting aside the emotional ties, the presence or absence of Jia Jing really doesn't mean much.He even said that since he is no longer in the capital, it would be better for Xichun, at least Xichun could be raised under the name of Nala Shuxian, even if he was not adopted, he would be raised by him as a child, and there is no name but reality.
"I understand the meaning of the master, you don't need to worry about this matter anymore, right?" Nala Shuxian replied with a smile.
"Yeah, who cares, Rong'er herself isn't worried about not being able to marry a wife, so why are we so carefree? Besides, I guess even if he wants to get married in the future, he might be like Zhu'er, right?"
Jia She thought about it for a while, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt it was very possible: "What do you think, Zhu'er was also a bit difficult to get married at the time? Fortunately, he was capable, and he was also famous at the time, and the Li family he married was of a different status. Gao, but at any rate, it is the Guozijian's sacrificial wine, which is very expensive. Rong'er is going to marry a wife, and I think his father will help him out. He has been in the Imperial Academy for more than ten years, even if he is just fooling around, so Over the years, there should be a few close friends."
Hearing Jia She's words, Nala Shuxian and Ying Jie only looked at each other in blank dismay.
After a long while, Sister Ying weakly repeated what she had said to Nala Shuxian before. She didn't think at all that Rong'er, a brat, would fall in love with a girl from a noble family and find him A family of generals is good!
At that moment, Jia Amnesty was also stunned.
But soon, Jia Amnesty felt relieved: "That's just right. If everything goes well in the future, Rong'er will be able to enter the Xiaoqi camp. At that time, let him make troubles by himself. After all, he is also a nobleman, and his family is so rich." , are you afraid that you won’t be able to marry a daughter-in-law?”
This was true, the three of them chatted and laughed a few more times, and then completely put the matter aside.
However, in the morning of the second day, Brother Jing came to find Sister Ying quietly, and told Sister Ying a big thing.
"What? You said that the old lady knew about the appointment of a doctor in the East Hospital yesterday? After hearing that there was nothing wrong, she still said that Sister Feng will have a son with this pregnancy?" Sister Ying was so frightened that the sleepy bug disappeared completely. She had just woken up, but she had washed up but hadn't had time to eat breakfast yet.After hearing the news now, how can I care about breakfast, so I hurriedly dragged Brother Jing and asked carefully, "Is the news true? Who else knows besides you? Besides... the old lady didn't How about something else?"
Brother Jing had a horrible expression on his face, covered his face and said: "Many, many people know about it, otherwise, sister, do you think I have planted a nail in Rongqing Hall? As for the others, I will tell you, but you have to make sure not to Jump up."
"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up, or I'll beat you to death!" Sister Ying threatened directly.
"The old lady said that Sister Feng's pregnancy must be healthy and smooth. It blooms first and then bears fruit. This time, there must be a boy in her stomach. The old lady also said that the empress in the palace has not been heard from for a while, maybe she is pregnant again. Come on, our family suffered such a big shock before, as the saying goes, if you survive a catastrophe, you will have a future blessing, maybe this blessing will be on your mother. By the way, there is one more thing..."
"Tell me! Say it quickly!"
"I don't know why, but the old lady also brought it to the Xue family, saying that she will be able to find a good son-in-law and become a noble wife in the future." Brother Jing couldn't help grinning, "Sister, Do you think the Xue family sister will not be able to marry in the future? No, how did I hear before that the second wife intends to match Baoyu with her... Hey, sister, where are you going? Sister!"
Sister Ying has only one thought in her mind, Mother Jia is definitely on the right track!
It's fine if others don't know about it. When she saw Jiamu yesterday, she clearly had a benevolent look. After the banquet, she specially ordered Yuanyang to give her a box of jewelry in person. All are high-quality goods, which has never been done before.At the time, she thought, maybe the old lady had really figured it out, but she never thought about it, and in less than a day, she zoomed in again.
Mother Jia herself didn't believe that she was a crow's mouth, but she couldn't hold back others' belief.Whenever someone said a few words in her ear, she would definitely follow that person's words.
But... then who would it be?
Usually, when calculating age, the calculation is based on one year old plus one year old. Rong'er's birthday is in February, and her fourteenth birthday has passed, so it doesn't matter to add one year old.
"It's okay, Bao girl will be [-] years old." Mrs. Xue looked at Na Youshi carefully, trying her best to recall what she heard about Ningguo Mansion in her mind.
Ningguo Mansion was also one of the most noble families in the capital, but that was a long time ago.In fact, now that Emperor Tai'an has withdrawn the plaque of Ningguo Mansion, even though Rong'er is the one who inherited the title, he only won the title of a third-class general.And because he was really not good at his homework and had never taken the imperial examination, Meng Zuyin got a spot as a fruit wine supervisor before, but if he didn't want to go to school, this spot would be useless.On the other hand, his old man, Jia Zhen, was absurd in the early years, but he was a lot more honest during those years when he was expelled from the house. In addition, Jia Amnesty did not completely abandon him, and now he has become a fifth grade He is a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy.
Calculated in this way, Rong'er's advantage is obvious.
First of all, the family background is noble, after all, they are the descendants of the Duke, and the situation of their family is different from other families. In fact, the head of the family is Rong Er himself, not his father Jia Zhen.Thirdly, Rong'er is also a nobleman, even if she is only a third-class general, it is still a title bestowed on her.At the same time, although their family lost the plaque of the Duke's Mansion, their family property was still there.What's more, Jia Zhen started as a fifth-rank civil servant. As her eldest son and only son, Rong'er's life in this life can be regarded as safe and worry-free.
Of course, the disadvantages cannot be ignored either.
There is a big difference in whether there is a plaque of the Duke's Mansion. It can be said that if the marriage was engaged two years earlier, Ronger's choices would be much wider, but it is definitely impossible now.And then, even though Rong'er himself has a title, it is the last time in his life to inherit it, and it will be reduced to the point where there is no title to attack.For the same example, let's look at Jia Min's married husband, Lin Hai and the others are also in the same situation. Only when his father received the gift of the Evergreen Emperor in his father's generation did he allow another generation, but on Lin Hai's side, he can only let him suffer. Going to school to compete for this fame.Unexpectedly, Lin Hai is a person with real talent and learning, but Rong'er is not. His talent is almost equal to Jia Zheng's. He is not extremely bad but he can't even think about passing the imperial examination.In addition, Rong'er has a fatal flaw.
He had been engaged before.
If it's an ordinary marriage talk, it's okay, no matter how many times you talk about it, there will be no one on the left or right chatting with others for nothing.But Rong'er's engagement was actually three-match and six-engagement, and it really went through a clear path.In fact, when his unmarried daughter-in-law, Qin Shi, "died" from illness, it had been less than a month since they got married.
What should I say in such a situation?I can only rejoice that Rong'er is a man, if she is a woman, she will probably have to be a widow.No matter how bad it is, the next time we talk about relatives, we will definitely not find a suitable family, so we can only choose the next one.After all, things like Kefu and Kewi are still very taboo these days.
In the eyes of those who pay more attention to it, such a situation is equivalent to sending it to someone's door as a successor.Even if it is not in essence, can people not have lumps in their hearts?The poor Qin family was suppressed by force, but what if the Qin family was a little stronger and forced Rong'er to send Qin's body to the ancestral grave?To be honest, this kind of situation is not completely absent. After all, in terms of etiquette, from the moment the six rituals are completed, Qin has been his legitimate wife.
This is also the reason why Rong'er once put on an attitude of not discussing marriage after Qin's "death".It is true that even if the world is a little more tolerant towards men, if their family immediately discuss marriage shortly after Qin's "death", they will definitely be stabbed in the back.Rong'er is not Jia She, she is so brazen and doesn't care about other people's eyes, in fact, even if Jia She is good, she will never challenge the world's three views on this kind of matter.
The dead are great.
Regardless of whether or how many mistakes the deceased made, they are all gone. As a living person, we must show an attitude for the world to see.
Fortunately, Rong'er's marriage was announced very early, not to mention that it has only been delayed for more than a year now, even if it is delayed for a few years later, there is nothing to worry about.These days, there are various reasons for women not being able to marry, but there is only one possibility for men not being able to marry a wife, and that is poverty!
Rong'er is rich, and his family's foundation is by no means inferior to that of the severely injured Xue's family.It's just that he cherishes his reputation more than his father, and since he is young, he simply waited for another two years, when the rumors have completely passed, and when no one in the capital mentions the Qin family, he will slowly search for a family. Good marriage.
But Mrs. Xue's family doesn't know the inside story here, not even Mrs. Wang.After all, the former Ningguo Mansion family, from Jia Jing to Jia Zhen, to the current Patriarch Rong'er, were all closer to Jia She's house.
What Mrs. Xue's family knows is what is known to outsiders.She knew that Rong'er's title could not be passed on to the next generation, and she also knew that Rong'er had a daughter-in-law who died of illness before entering the family.
At that moment, Mrs. Xue's mind became active. No one is perfect. Wouldn't it be a good time for the two families to get married?After all, apart from her slightly inadequate background, her precious girl is excellent in everything else.The only problem is that this marriage is somewhat inappropriate, not because of inappropriate seniority, but because Mrs. Xue is worried that Mrs. Wang will hinder it.
In fact, Mrs. Xue's family has already felt Mrs. Wang's mentality.Just like Bao girl in her family dislikes Baoyu so much, Mrs. Wang may not really take Bao girl to heart, or is she just thinking about riding a donkey to find a horse?
The mentality of the two families is the same, they completely regard each other as their last way out, so don't dislike each other!
But if this is the case, Mrs. Xue's family will not be able to ask Mrs. Wang to be the matchmaker.After thinking about it again and again, he finally aimed at the pregnant Wang Xifeng again.
Wang Xifeng who received the invitation was also dumbfounded.
It is true that Wang Xifeng is really thick-skinned, otherwise he would not have been able to accept the heavy gift from Xue's family before, and then he would use the pregnancy as an excuse to stay behind closed doors.But at that time, she was indeed insecure for a month, but now she is already very secure, plus she is young and healthy, no matter how you think about it, it is impossible to decline this matter.In desperation, Wang Xifeng could only drag Sister Ying to make up for it, thinking that she could use other things later, and dismissed Mrs. Xue's family early.
As a result, before Mrs. Xue's family entered the door, Sister Ying had already settled the score with Wang Xifeng with her fingers: "Whoever sees has a share, half of each person!" If you want to use her as a shield, of course you have to pay a price.
Fortunately, Wang Xifeng is greedy, but he doesn't feel sorry for things that he hasn't got yet.Immediately, he made a decision and said: "It's done, all the gifts for meeting later will be yours, and half of the other gifts will be given to each person."
The sister-in-law and sister-in-law quickly agreed to divide the spoils, and sat in the warm pavilion in the east courtyard, waiting on airs for Mrs. Xue's visit.
According to Wang Xifeng's guess, there are two reasons for Mrs. Xue's visit again.One is that they are still looking forward to living in. This is obviously impossible. It used to be the Rongguo Mansion, but now it is the Rongninghou Mansion. No matter what happens, it is impossible for the Xue family to occupy the place and not leave.Of course, there is another possibility, which is to want Wang Xifeng to propose marriage to Xue Baochai. If this is the case, Wang Xifeng really doesn't care. He will help the relatives to look around, and it's not an immediate decision, so it doesn't matter.
The idea was very good. When Mrs. Xue's family really came to visit and explained her intentions in a roundabout way, Wang Xifeng was dumbfounded.
"Rong, Rong'er?"
Of course, it is impossible for Mrs. Xue to ask as soon as they meet, why don't you help me as a matchmaker and tell my precious girl to Rong Ercheng from the next door house?In this case, Wang Xifeng was not just dumbfounded, but completely confused.In fact, Mrs. Xue's family only greeted Rong'er very tactfully.
The problem is, you are an in-law who needs to turn a corner to talk, and you have nothing to do when you are full to greet your next-door relative who also needs to turn a corner...
If there were no articles here, Wang Xifeng would have wanted to write her surname upside down.
But Rong'er and Baochai, why can't they get along?
In terms of seniority, Rong'er is Wang Xifeng's cousin, while Baochai is her cousin.In terms of background, Rong'er is the sole heir of an honorable family, while Baochai is the daughter of an imperial merchant.In terms of talent and learning, Rong'er's literary talent is almost equal to that of Jia Zheng's idiot, who has completely extinguished the way to take the imperial examination, but Baochai is known as a talented woman with aura...
The only similarity between the two is that regardless of whether Rong'er's family or Baochai's family, they both have a lot of money.But the problem is that getting married is not a family matter. Is it possible that whoever has more money can marry a princess or a prince?That's over, Twelve doesn't have much money, but has a future and talent.
"Feng girl?" Mrs. Xue looked at Wang Xifeng expectantly. Although she had known this niece of her natal family for more than a year, she knew that Wang Xifeng was brought up by her own mother. Yes, it doesn't matter whether it's temper or ability to speak, it's a typical Wang's female demeanor.
Therefore, Wang Xifeng must have understood, it depends on whether she is willing to help.
To be honest, if Mrs. Xue's family just asked her to help keep an eye out for suitable candidates, Wang Xifeng would really be able to agree. As for whether she will pay attention to it seriously, it depends on her conscience.But now Mrs. Xue's family already has a candidate in her mind, let her be the middle man, and go to say goodbye...
Inexplicably, Wang Xifeng faltered.
She is also a mother herself, if she can have a son this time.Ten years later, someone came to her and said, I want to tell your son a daughter-in-law of a businessman's family to be his wife... She will definitely let the servants use a big broom to blow her out.
How much would it cost to marry the daughter of a businessman?Even if it is an imperial merchant, isn't that also a merchant?And this is different from Mrs. Xue's marriage to Father Xue. Marrying her daughter to a merchant will not affect her family at all, and she can get a helping hand.But what are the benefits of marrying a woman from a merchant family?All the sons and daughters born will fall from birth, and what if the family tradition is not good?
Marrying a wife is unvirtuous and harms three generations! !
Wang Xifeng quickly glanced at Sister Ying who was sitting next to her, and saw that this girl was completely dumbfounded, completely forgetting the escape plan that the two of them had discussed just now.At that moment, Wang Xifeng decided to go all out, resorting to the ultimate means of suppressing the bottom line.
"Ouch, ouch... Er girl, why does my stomach suddenly hurt, ouch... hurry up and get someone to call the doctor, ouch, it hurts so bad..."
Sister Ying shuddered shiveringly, and suddenly woke up from the stunned state, bounced up on the spot, and rushed out the door with a whoosh, and immediately the small courtyard outside became lively.Not long after, Wang Xifeng and the two nuns who were serving in front of her rushed over, and together they sent her back to the room.As for Mrs. Xue's family, someone sent her out politely.
In another quarter of an hour, Brother Lian ran back with a frightened expression on his face, followed by Nala Shuxian who was also frowning and worried.
At that time, Wang Xifeng was in the room angrily welcoming her sister: "Second girl! I said, are you short-hearted? Isn't this what we discussed? Otherwise, why do I have to welcome Mrs. Xue with me?" What about your brain? First you pretended to be stupid and ignored me, then I used the last trick, and you actually believed it! My God, don’t tell me, you not only called the doctor, but also told me ……Well."
Come on, there's no need to ask, brother Lian has already run in sweating, it's no wonder he was sweating all over his forehead in March.
After a while, Nala Shuxian also came in.
Wang Xifeng really wanted to look up and sigh, but in fact all she could do was cover her face with a handkerchief, and use her free hands to push and push Yingjie who was standing on the bedside.
Sister Ying had a look of wanting to cry but no tears.
"Brother, sister-in-law is fine, I made a fuss...Mum, I seem to be doing something stupid again..."
Brother Lian went from being panicked at the beginning to dumbfounded later, and finally let out a sigh of complete helplessness: "Second girl, I can only agree with Cong'er's words. In our family, you are the only one, and you are the only one." , the most like dad."
This is definitely not a compliment.
Poor Sister Ying pouted with grievance on her face, she is so pitiful, isn't she?But she was dumbfounded by Mrs. Xue's concern about Rong'er, but before she could recover, Wang Xifeng used the ultimate ultimate move.Even though she did meet with her ward before, she was completely overwhelmed by her fright.
But at this time, the maid outside came in and whispered: "That... the doctor is here."
"It's all here, let the doctor take a look at it, and you can feel at ease if there is nothing wrong." Nala Shuxian looked helpless, she was completely trained by these children, but fortunately nothing happened. , "Forget it today, but don't play this kind of joke in the future."
Wang Xifeng realized that these words were spoken to herself, and hurriedly promised: "I will never see Mrs. Xue again!"
So, is there any necessary connection between the two?
Before Nala Shuxian could figure it out, the doctor had already been brought in by the maid.Nala Shuxian simply stopped asking, and just watched the doctor take Wang Xifeng's pulse for diagnosis.After a while, the doctor said: "Second Grandma Lian is a little bit angry, and there is no need to prescribe a prescription. It will be good to eat less food later on. Try not to eat too greasy meat and meat, eat more light, appetizing and easy to digest."
This kind of diagnosis is actually the same as saying that Wang Xifeng is fine, but since you all asked me to come here, then I will pick some bones and find some faults.
So, after the doctor had finished speaking, Nala Shuxian asked someone to invite him out. As for the meal arrangement, the nanny at the east courtyard was watching over it. Besides, Wang Xifeng was not the kind who would be willful in such matters. people.
Now that it's all right, La Shuxian should leave, but she is still a little worried.
"Can you tell me what happened before?" Seeing that Wang Xifeng was about to cover her face with a handkerchief again, Nala Shuxian guessed that it was something embarrassing to say, so she turned her eyes and called out by name, "Second girl You say."
Sister Ying felt that she was that unlucky wretch.
Unexpectedly, then La Shuxian had to listen to what she said.
"Mrs. Xue sent a message to see sister-in-law earlier, but sister-in-law was a little guilty, so she pulled me over to strengthen her courage." As she said that, sister Ying saw Wang Xifeng glare at her secretly.Seeing this, she decided to go all out, "It's really my sister-in-law who pulled me to embolden me. We've discussed it before, and I'll give you all the presents. If there's any other gift, then everyone who sees me will get half of it!"
"Get to the point." Nala Shuxian really doesn't want to know how much her daughter and daughter-in-law are lacking. She just wants to find out what role the Xue family plays here.
"Well, it's actually very simple. Mrs. Xue has taken a fancy to Rong'er and seems to be planning to match Rong'er and Baochai together. I was stunned at the time, and before I recovered, my sister-in-law Ouch, ouch, and then... you will know."
Looking at Sister Ying with a listless head, and Wang Xifeng who buried her face in the veil again, Nala Shuxian sighed: "You two! That's all, it's just to help talk about marriage, in fact, it's also There's no need to make such a fuss."
No fuss?
Wang Xifeng lifted the veil and looked at Nala Shuxian, and couldn't help asking: "What if this is Jing'er? Someone told Jing'er about the merchant's prostitute daughter, Madam, would you order someone to use a big broom to blow him out? "
Before La Shuxian could open her mouth, Sister Ying exclaimed: "Sister-in-law, how did you know that the Xue family had a crush on Jing'er earlier?"
Nala Shuxian: "...First, no matter what, I can't do such a thing as throwing people out of the house with a big broom. Second, talking about a relationship is about your love and my willingness. You don't want to directly That’s right, it’s nothing like this. Thirdly, Mrs. Xue’s family has taken a fancy to Rong’er, girl Feng, you just have to promise, whether you want to tell Rong’er later, that’s your business, even if you don’t say it , when Mrs. Xue's family asks, you can pretend to be embarrassed and keep silent, her family is the girl, and she will never ask the bottom line."
"So, you two are stupid!" Brother Lian concluded.
But just as he finished speaking, Wang Xifeng and Sister Ying gave him a fierce slap in the face.At that moment, Nala Shuxian sighed again, but this time she said to brother Lian: "If you are not sure that you will not be retaliated against, please be careful."
Brother Lian: "..." Mother, you are too late! !
"Okay, girl Feng, take a good rest. Second girl, let's go." Nala Shuxian took away sister Ying, but left brother Lian alone to face Wang Xifeng who was in a delicate mood.However, it didn't matter to Nala Shuxian, and Wang Xifeng couldn't do anything to murder her husband.
After bringing Sister Ying back to Rongxi Hall, Nala Shuxian asked people to go to the study to have a look, and if they met Jia She, they called him over.
After giving these instructions, Nala Shuxian beckoned to let Yingjie sit next to her on the kang of the warm pavilion: "Why did you scare you like that? I also saw that girl Baochai, her family background is a big flaw." , but the others are not so bad. Being with Rong'er is indeed a bit high-profile, but if Rong'er herself doesn't mind, this marriage is not bad."
Putting it in someone else's house is the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker.But who made Rong'er's family a special case?His father, Jia Zhen, put the house just as a decoration, and Rong'er, the head of the family, had the final say on everything in the house.
To put it bluntly, the success of this marriage mainly depends on Rong'er's own wishes.What if he was a beauty lover?Baochai's appearance and figure, even in the capital city where beauties gather, are considered to be superior.
"Isn't it because Rong'er doesn't like it?" Sister Ying's face collapsed, "Rong'er said before that he didn't like plump women. At that time, I thought he was mocking me, and I chased after him so angry. Go up and beat him up. He also said that he hates women who can write poems and fus the most, and what he hates the most is the person who forces his husband to study because he likes to study. By the way, he laughed awkwardly once. Sister Baochai is not talking about her figure and her studies, but about when our Jia family fell to this level, and it is shameful to call a merchant woman a sister and vaguely take her as the leader. The face of the ancestors."
Nala Shuxian: "..." One or two are not good things! !
"Mother, can you tell me that I won't be frightened by Mrs. Xue's words? Rong'er's mouth is worse than that of the second elder brother. He is like my father. Once he talks to someone he knows, his mouth It's as if he's been poisoned. Fortunately, he can put on a show in his daily life, and he's fine in front of strangers."
This is also the reason why Nala Shuxian has never noticed Rong'er's true nature, not because of unfamiliarity, probably because Nala Shuxian is like a real elder, so that Rong'er dare not make mistakes easily.But it doesn't matter in front of Sister Ying, the difference between the two of them is only one and a half years, so it is more appropriate to say that they are playmates who have been rambunctious together since childhood rather than aunt and nephew.No, if one didn't pay attention, he poured out all the thoughts in his heart.
So, it's over?
"Since Rong'er has said so, let's put this matter to rest." Who let Rong'er be the master of their family?In fact, even if Jia Zhen is the one who is in charge today, Rong'er is so reluctant, Jia Zhen can't force him.The most important thing is that if Rong'er has a bad temper, she will definitely give the other party a shame.
——Be virtuous with Jia She!
"Let me tell you, Rong'er definitely wants to be the prostitute's daughter of an official's family. Just looking at how much he cares about his own reputation, you can tell that he attaches great importance to family status. Then, it's best to be thin, weak, gentle Virtuous. In fact, he didn't respond to the Qin family before."
Qin?
Nala Shuxian frowned slightly when she thought of the troublesome things here.But soon, she said: "Tell your father to ask Rong'er later, he is not young anymore, and he is the only child in the family. It's time to consider getting married."
"Yo, Shuxian, when did you get so free?"
Jia Amnesty lifted the curtain and walked in. First, he glanced at Sister Ying, and said, "What's wrong with the second girl? Did she cause trouble? Was she scolded? Hahahahaha!"
Sister Ying was so angry that her stomach hurt instantly, she ground her teeth and said, "No, I'm just worried about my nephew's marriage!"
"Your nephew? Rong'er?" Jia Amnesty looked at Sister Ying earnestly, "It seems that it's not that your mother is too busy, but that you have nothing to do when you're full. So busy, Why don't you go and tidy up your dowry? Let me tell you, Cong'er is about to get married... Ahh! It's Cong'er who is going to marry a wife, and you have a big birthday, and it's time to celebrate your 16th birthday at the end of the month. At that time, she should be considered a 17-year-old girl. The other side of the Zhang family didn't mention it before, I guess it will be your turn after Cong'er's marriage is over."
"I'm about to get married. Before leaving the house, why don't you let me care more about my little nephew who grew up with me when I was young, and who has been beaten by me hundreds of times... Lifetime event?"
"Why didn't you get suffocated after you finished speaking in one breath?" Jia Amnesty confronted Sister Ying, "They have fathers and mothers, and besides, I haven't heard of any aunt who hasn't left the cabinet. The marriage of your nephew?"
"What's the matter? Last year, the second elder brother asked me worriedly, what if Baoyu couldn't marry a wife in the future? I said he was just eating carrots and worrying about it, and he was still angry."
Seeing that the father and daughter were fighting again, Nala Shuxian pinched the center of her brows with a headache and hurriedly called a stop.
In the end, Sister Ying was honest, but Jia Amnesty still didn't stop: "Lian'er is so stupid? Hahahaha, I knew that he was stupid when he was young, but what I didn't expect is that he is still so stupid when he grows up. It’s true, seeing old age at the age of three is silly and silly.”
After a pause, Jia Amnesty straightened his face slightly, and said, "You really don't need to care about Rong'er's marriage. It's not that he can't marry a wife, but he doesn't plan to get married in the past two years. As for the reason, Shuxian, you probably He can guess some, and when the rumors pass, he will think of ways to accumulate some merits, and he will naturally think of it at that time."
After hearing this, Sister Ying couldn't help but wonder: "Accumulate achievements? What achievements?"
"He doesn't have the ability to study. Naturally, he has to find a way to go to the army to accumulate merit. Don't worry, he doesn't need to go to the battlefield. Besides, he doesn't have the ability. I am also waiting for news. The Holy Majesty said earlier, in order to grant a Go to the house that fits his status, and then there will probably be some compensation. I am waiting, if the compensation is not good, I will find a way to let him go to my side. It is not the Ministry of Households, but the Xiaoqiying, to influence him Riding and archery is not too bad."
If the road to the imperial examination fails, then the only way to go is the military commander.No one expected Rong'er to reach the sky in one step, but it's not too difficult to get the position of military attache in the capital of the fifth or sixth rank.In the final analysis, both Ningrong and Rong's families were from military backgrounds, and Rong'er only hoped to gain a prestigious position, and had no intention of learning from her ancestors to lead troops in battle.
That's much easier.As a human being, you are not afraid of being incompetent, but you are afraid of having a high vision if you are incompetent.
"Rong'er is still young. For a man, it's not a problem to get married at the age of eighteen or nineteen. Before, I had been urging Cong'er for fear that having him in the way would hinder your marriage. Fortunately, the Zhang family The other end is very sensible, and in turn comforted me, saying that the two children are both young, and they will be more sensible and harmonious in the later years. But what is Rong'er afraid of? His father is his only child, so if there is any delay It's not a problem. As for the fourth girl, I have greeted Brother Zhen before. What he means is that the marriage is arranged by me, and when the time comes, we will go from him. After all, our family only adopted the fourth girl. rather than succession."
In fact, her father, Jia Jing, should have the final say on Xichun's matter.But who made Jia Jing sent to the deep mountains and old forests by Emperor Tai'an?Although there will still be letters coming in every year and festival, I think I know that Jia Jing will never be able to return to the capital in his life.No, if he is gone, he can still go to Beijing for the funeral.In addition, Rong'er can completely pretend that there is no such person.
Putting aside the emotional ties, the presence or absence of Jia Jing really doesn't mean much.He even said that since he is no longer in the capital, it would be better for Xichun, at least Xichun could be raised under the name of Nala Shuxian, even if he was not adopted, he would be raised by him as a child, and there is no name but reality.
"I understand the meaning of the master, you don't need to worry about this matter anymore, right?" Nala Shuxian replied with a smile.
"Yeah, who cares, Rong'er herself isn't worried about not being able to marry a wife, so why are we so carefree? Besides, I guess even if he wants to get married in the future, he might be like Zhu'er, right?"
Jia She thought about it for a while, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt it was very possible: "What do you think, Zhu'er was also a bit difficult to get married at the time? Fortunately, he was capable, and he was also famous at the time, and the Li family he married was of a different status. Gao, but at any rate, it is the Guozijian's sacrificial wine, which is very expensive. Rong'er is going to marry a wife, and I think his father will help him out. He has been in the Imperial Academy for more than ten years, even if he is just fooling around, so Over the years, there should be a few close friends."
Hearing Jia She's words, Nala Shuxian and Ying Jie only looked at each other in blank dismay.
After a long while, Sister Ying weakly repeated what she had said to Nala Shuxian before. She didn't think at all that Rong'er, a brat, would fall in love with a girl from a noble family and find him A family of generals is good!
At that moment, Jia Amnesty was also stunned.
But soon, Jia Amnesty felt relieved: "That's just right. If everything goes well in the future, Rong'er will be able to enter the Xiaoqi camp. At that time, let him make troubles by himself. After all, he is also a nobleman, and his family is so rich." , are you afraid that you won’t be able to marry a daughter-in-law?”
This was true, the three of them chatted and laughed a few more times, and then completely put the matter aside.
However, in the morning of the second day, Brother Jing came to find Sister Ying quietly, and told Sister Ying a big thing.
"What? You said that the old lady knew about the appointment of a doctor in the East Hospital yesterday? After hearing that there was nothing wrong, she still said that Sister Feng will have a son with this pregnancy?" Sister Ying was so frightened that the sleepy bug disappeared completely. She had just woken up, but she had washed up but hadn't had time to eat breakfast yet.After hearing the news now, how can I care about breakfast, so I hurriedly dragged Brother Jing and asked carefully, "Is the news true? Who else knows besides you? Besides... the old lady didn't How about something else?"
Brother Jing had a horrible expression on his face, covered his face and said: "Many, many people know about it, otherwise, sister, do you think I have planted a nail in Rongqing Hall? As for the others, I will tell you, but you have to make sure not to Jump up."
"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up, or I'll beat you to death!" Sister Ying threatened directly.
"The old lady said that Sister Feng's pregnancy must be healthy and smooth. It blooms first and then bears fruit. This time, there must be a boy in her stomach. The old lady also said that the empress in the palace has not been heard from for a while, maybe she is pregnant again. Come on, our family suffered such a big shock before, as the saying goes, if you survive a catastrophe, you will have a future blessing, maybe this blessing will be on your mother. By the way, there is one more thing..."
"Tell me! Say it quickly!"
"I don't know why, but the old lady also brought it to the Xue family, saying that she will be able to find a good son-in-law and become a noble wife in the future." Brother Jing couldn't help grinning, "Sister, Do you think the Xue family sister will not be able to marry in the future? No, how did I hear before that the second wife intends to match Baoyu with her... Hey, sister, where are you going? Sister!"
Sister Ying has only one thought in her mind, Mother Jia is definitely on the right track!
It's fine if others don't know about it. When she saw Jiamu yesterday, she clearly had a benevolent look. After the banquet, she specially ordered Yuanyang to give her a box of jewelry in person. All are high-quality goods, which has never been done before.At the time, she thought, maybe the old lady had really figured it out, but she never thought about it, and in less than a day, she zoomed in again.
Mother Jia herself didn't believe that she was a crow's mouth, but she couldn't hold back others' belief.Whenever someone said a few words in her ear, she would definitely follow that person's words.
But... then who would it be?
