The Hulk of the Red Chamber

Mrs. Qin just told her ancestors how to do it because her son won Tanhua, which needs to be celebrated. Therefore, when Shi Ding came back, she discussed with Shi Ding whether to have a big event.

Shi Ding pondered for a while, but still shook his head. Shi Hong was the No. [-] pick, and there was a No. [-] pick on top of him. Therefore, although he wanted to celebrate, it should be limited to a small area. .In addition, the matter of inviting the official media to the Lin family to propose marriage has to be stepped up.

Mrs. Qin expressed deep regret for this, but there was nothing she could do about it. She was at the foot of the emperor, and Shi Ding was an important minister in the court, so she had to be cautious in every move. Even if there is a three-day running water table, so what.

Mrs. Qin quickly posted posts to various relatives, and there were banquets in the inner and outer courtyards. Shi Hong is now a real rich man, and some people have already started to inquire whether Shi Hong is engaged, and they can't wait to blow their girls into the sky. , especially when it was heard that Shi Hong hadn't opened the room yet, many wives' eyes were about to shine.

But it is a pity that Mrs. Qin woke up the dream of the interested person with one sentence, and Mrs. Qin didn't say anything about Shi Hong's life that she shouldn't marry early. She just said that the Shi family had already made an agreement with the Lin family. Just waiting to make a decision, which disappointed many people present.

People from the Jia family were naturally among them. Shi Taijun's face changed a little at the time, but he quickly returned to his original state, and asked with a smile: "It's actually like this. Oh, you guys are really tight enough to hide it. If you don't tell me , my wife doesn’t know yet!”

Mrs. Qin also said with a smile: "What my aunt said is that my uncle has always loved his daughter as much as his life, and has high demands on his son-in-law. Although my family's Hong'er had a little fame before, we are afraid that we will not be worthy of the son-in-law of Tanhualang's family." As for the girl, it is better to get a Jinshi examination. Fortunately, Hong'er was upbeat and was favored by the sage. In this fate, he actually ordered Tanhua. No matter how unhappy the cousin is, he has to admit it! This is how the matter is settled. , just waiting to choose an auspicious day, so that our family can find someone to come to propose marriage!"

Mrs. Qin's words gave the Lin family enough face, and everyone immediately knew that although Jia Min was gone, Lin Ruhai was now a minister of the second rank, and she was indeed a good match for the historian.It's just that the faces of the Jia family are a bit unattractive. That being said, the Jia family is well aware of Shi Taijun's thoughts, knowing that Shi Taijun wants to get closer and match Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu as a pair. Madam only thought that Lin Daiyu was not good enough for her son, but never thought that in the end, the Lin family would not let go after Shi Hongzhong's promotion, and they would not marry until Shi Hongzhong became a Jinshi. It can be seen that the Lin family actually despised their son!At this moment, Mrs. Wang was so angry that her heart ached. Even thinking that her son would never be seduced by Jia Min's daughter could not alleviate her resentment. There is no limit, the Lin family, a family with no family, dare to look down on their own Baoyu!

Mrs. Wang almost couldn't bear the usual Bodhisattva face, her fingernails were sunk into the palm of her hand, but her expression became even more numb.Mrs. Xing has been her sister-in-law for many years. Even though she is not good at speaking, she is not very good at talking, and she is not liked by the Jia family. However, although she has fought against Mrs. Wang repeatedly, she still finds that Wang The madam was in a bad mood, she suddenly felt better, and then she opened her mouth with a smile, saying that Shi Hongnian was young and promising, and how the girl from the Lin family was so knowledgeable, gentle and demure, they were a match made in heaven.She doesn't like Shi Taijun anyway, since it's useless to try to please her, why bother not to get any benefit, here she is against Shi's family, just like others want.

No matter what the Jia family thinks, the Shi family is in a good mood. Shi Hong embarked on an official career and saw that he was going to get married again. , I have no opinion about my son marrying a bereaved woman and the eldest daughter, so I started to prepare gifts when I turned back, and then asked the official media to come over, and planned to go to the Lin family to propose marriage.

Although Shi Hong knew that he was going to be engaged to Lin Daiyu, he was just surprised. After all, Lin Daiyu was not very old at the moment, so he thought it was too early.He didn't feel guilty about destroying the front edge of wood and stone. Lin Ruhai is still there, so it's no wonder that Jia Baoyu can marry Lin Daiyu.However, there are still a lot of things he needs to do right now, the first thing is to take advantage of this opportunity to build a good relationship with his same year, no matter whether he will need it in the future, at least he can't get a reputation of being arrogant and lonely , Besides, it is better to build a good relationship now than to connect with each other later. Who knows which cloud has rain on it, maybe it will be useful in the future!

The privilege of being a first class has come out, and three people have been awarded the positions of editor and editor of the Hanlin Academy respectively, that is, from the rank of sixth rank, but it is already one step beyond many of the same year.At least those who have to pass the exam again in the same year can be awarded officials. It is not bad for those who are selected to be Shujishi in the Imperial Academy. If you can mix with the seventh rank, the rest of the people, if you are lucky, can mix with the seventh rank, but the seventh rank released outside is different from the seventh rank in Beijing, whether it is the speed of promotion or other things.Those top three are even worse.

In the next one or two months, the future prospects of these second-class and third-class Jinshi will be determined. Anyway, they will continue to take the exam. If they fail the exam, they will have to train and then take the exam again.The Hanlin Academy recruits a group of sages every three years, selected from the second-class and third-class, and the sixth department also needs some low-level officials to supplement, most of which are between the eighth and ninth ranks. Those who use Jinshi to become a Jinshi, and some of them are almost outsiders, and there are many kinds of outsiders. It is already very good to be a Qipin county magistrate from the beginning, most of them are county lieutenants and the like. The tragedy is that there is no vacancy for the time being, so you can only wait slowly with the hat of a substitute. In the beginning, he was still such a big official, and his salary was simply insignificant. If he was placed in a remote place, he could still live, but if he was placed in Chang'an, what could he do.It's not that there is no bad luck, and they are waiting until they die!This is something that can’t be helped. How many officials does the country need? It has been almost a hundred years since the founding of the country, and three hundred Jinshi came out in three years, not counting all kinds of Enke. Although many official positions are not considered hereditary, there are also a lot of them who come from related households, and it is impossible for a Jinshi to become a subordinate official, so there are always Some Jinshi who have no background and no wealth have to work hard to be candidates.

Fortunately, Xinke Scholars have a half-month vacation, whether it is the exam or the appointment. During this time, everyone can take advantage of this opportunity to get in touch with each other. It can't be clearly the same year. Looking back, what do you look like and what is your name? I can't even tell the names clearly. If you want to make friends in the future, but you end up meeting each other, and everyone recognizes you wrong, that would be a joke.Speaking of it, Shi Hong really doesn't understand the friendship between the same year in these years. Candidates from all over the country came to take the exam in the same examination room, and finally passed together. Most of them you have never heard of. It is also very likely that we will continue to separate from each other in the future, and maybe we will never see each other again.However, these days, the friendship between the same year is very stable, and it is normal for the same year to support each other. This is a seemingly unreliable, but in a certain sense, an extremely reliable alliance of interests.

As the top three, Xiao Jinjie, Sun Wentao, and Shi Hong are the leaders of this group of people. Xiao Jinjie was born in Suzhou, and the Xiao family is not a big or small family in Suzhou. However, he was able to have today, I have to say, to a large extent, he took advantage of a good father-in-law.His father-in-law's family is the Li family of Gusu, originally a scholarly family, the head of the current family has served as the chief envoy of a province, because the talents of the next generation of the Li family are withered, so he had to choose Xiao Jinjie, who was famous when he was young, to be his son-in-law. He strongly supported Xiao Jinjie. After Xiao Jinjie won the prize of a scholar, he used his own influence to send him to study in Bailu Academy. Xiao Jinjie did not live up to the price paid by the Yue family. His homework was excellent. After he won the exam, he listened to his teacher and studied for several years. Then he went to Beijing to take part in the general examination, and finally won the first place in the imperial examination.

Sun Wentao was born in the Sun family in Shanxi, but his branch moved out later. When the Sun family was in the previous dynasty, it was one of the best businessmen in Shanxi. There were also many scholars in the family, and they were able to enter the court as officials and provide shelter for the family. Later, when the Taizu raised troops, the ancestors of Sun Wentao's branch had to respond and go to support them. The patriarch of the Sun family at that time was worried that he would anger the court at that time, so he opened an ancestral hall and divided their branch out, also because Well, although Sun Wentao's branch was able to rise later because of his contribution to the dragon, he was somewhat at odds with his family and had little contact with him.

Although the Sun family is somewhat similar to the Xue family, the ancestors of the Sun family are more knowledgeable than the Xue family. After all, they took the logistics route. When the country was founded, they only won the title of viscount, but they also squeezed into the ranks of the gentry. Therefore, they no longer let the children of the family intervene in business affairs in person, that is, let their stewards go out, and instead start letting their children and grandchildren study.Sun Wentao is the most outstanding child of this generation. The family has spent a lot of effort on him, but fortunately, it is time to recover the cost.

Therefore, to be honest, Shi Hong has the hardest background. Although Shi Hong is a little younger, the so-called learning is not prioritized. His Majesty personally ordered it, which shows that Shi Hong has a bright future.Moreover, Shi Hong is not an annoying person. On the contrary, although Shi Hong is relatively young, he is already very experienced in dealing with people, and he does not have the kind of dandyism raised by a wealthy family. He is a person worthy of association. .

Therefore, even though Shi Hong did not get along well in the same year, he still gave them a good first impression. Some thoughtful people have already wondered whether they should follow the path of the historian and see if they can stay in the capital. , Even if you do odd jobs in the six parts, it may not be better than being able to enter Beijing for decades after it was released to the outside world.
