The Housekeeper's Daughter-in-law of the Red House

Shulan is in the inner courtyard of Jia's mansion, this woman gossips more than men, and she knows more about this matter than Lin Zhixiao.It's not that I haven't heard the bitter words of envy and jealousy from those in Jia's mansion, but how to say this matter, from different perspectives and different people's standpoints, some good things may not be good things.

"What kind of business are you talking about Leng's family?" Shulan asked back.

Lin Zhixiao glanced at her inexplicably, "An antique!" This is well known.

"Antiques are a test of eyesight. If you have good eyesight, you can pick up leaks and get rich overnight, but if you have bad eyesight, it is possible to go bankrupt overnight. Besides, even the father and son of the Leng family have good eyesight, but they can guarantee that they will get rich." Are all the things real? Nowadays, anyone who can afford antiques is a powerful person, even if they are not, they can still be associated with the powerful.

If something goes wrong and the other party is angry, it will be a big deal. "Money touches people's hearts. Although antiques have an unspoken rule that they will not be responsible for any problems after they are bought and sold, they are just unspoken rules. How can unspoken rules be compared with power? Don't forget, it is a feudal society today. The rich and powerful If the family wants to kill someone, that's nothing. Every second, someone will come to help.

"What you said makes sense." Lin Zhixiao nodded in praise, but he hadn't thought of this before.Looking at it now, there is still a lot to say about this marriage.

But this is other people's business, even if the Leng family has any bad intentions, it is only the Zhou family and the second wife who suffer, and it has nothing to do with them.The most important thing for the Lin family now is to raise money and follow Jia She to go to the House of Internal Affairs to pick up bargains.

Jia Shebei's vision was not as good as this one, but he picked out a lot of high-quality and cheap things, and Lin Zhixiao also followed him to find some bargains. The two of them were very busy, but they didn't care. The lungs ignored the current tense atmosphere in the capital.

The days went by day by day, and soon, it was the day of the examination, and the Xu family children also went to participate.Today is the day when the results are released, and Mrs. Zhang is a little restless in the room. If the Xu family's children pass the test, then this marriage will almost have to be run away.

After all, although the Palace Examination is important, it is only a ranking competition. Unless someone is caught cheating on the spot or colliding with the emperor, they will generally not be selected down.This matter is related to Jia Lian's marriage, and Mrs. Zhang cannot afford to ignore it.

Fortunately, God blesses, that Xu's elder brother really went to high school, and there is a cousin in the clan who went to high school with him, but the ranking is not as high as him.

Mrs. Zhang was overjoyed, and quickly sent someone to send the congratulatory gift that had been prepared long ago. There was one more thing, that is, the marriage between Jia Lian and Xu's family can be put on the agenda. It is best to get married within this year. After all, Jia Lian Already seventeen, not too young.Although it is possible for a man to marry a few years later, Mrs. Zhang became stubborn at this time and insisted on competing with Jia Zhu. She insisted that Jia Lian marry a daughter-in-law before he became an older youth.

A month later, the more joyful thing happened. The two brothers of the Xu family passed the Jinshi examination and did not fall into the same Jinshi. One of them was 29, and the other was [-].The eldest brother of the Xu family still broke through the siege among the Jinshi, was admitted to the Imperial Academy Shujishi, and stayed in Beijing.

Mrs. Zhang's actions were not small, and both Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang had heard about them, but after all, they were not members of the literati circle, and Mrs. Zhang controlled the big house tightly, so they didn't get through anything.The two were about to invite Shulan to ask questions, and Mrs. Zhang took the initiative to show her cards.

"My daughter-in-law took advantage of a girl when she was going to congratulate her in various places." Mrs. Zhang said with a smile.

Although she didn't explain it, everyone present understood what Mrs. Zhang meant. This is the rhythm of Lian's second grandma in the future!

"Which family's girl?" Mother Jia asked, but she probably had an idea in her heart that she probably belonged to a scholarly family.This is not because Mrs. Zhang is the aunt of a scholarly family, so she must marry a daughter-in-law of a scholarly family.But the people she walked with during this time were all scholarly families, and Jia Lian would also embark on the road of imperial examinations in the future, so it would be more beneficial to marry a daughter-in-law from a scholarly family.

Just like in the East Mansion, Jia Jing and Jia Zhen were married to daughters-in-law of scholarly families, the purpose was to allow Jia Jing and Jia Zhen to gain a firm foothold in the officialdom.It made Jia's mother think that although Mrs. Zhang reacted slowly, she was not confused in major matters, and her IQ was higher than Mrs. Wang's.

Sure enough, things did not go beyond Jia Mu's expectation, "She is the eldest daughter of the daughter-in-law's grandmother's natal Xu family in Taiyuan."

"The Xu family in Taiyuan." Mother Jia was a little surprised. Although the Wang family is the most famous in Taiyuan, that place is a place where talents are produced. From the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there have been many great people.

In ancient times, there was an unspoken rule that generally capable people dared to add place names in front of their surnames, and only those with official positions dared to call their official titles in front of their names. It's called Tang Bohu, the same as Tang Jieyuan.

Therefore, dare to add the word Taiyuan in front, the Xu family must have some reputation in Taiyuan, not everyone would dare to act like this.

"The children of the Xu family went to Beijing to take the exam, and they lived in the other courtyard of the daughter-in-law's family. They are all relatives, so the daughter-in-law went to visit and immediately fell in love with the eldest girl of the Xu family. It's just that the children of the Xu family were going to take the exam, and the daughter-in-law was not good. Let them be distracted, now that the Xu family's eldest brother and Liu brother have passed the Jinshi exam, the daughter-in-law should talk about it, after all, Lian'er is not young anymore." Mrs. Zhang said cheerfully.

Although Mrs. Zhang said this in the most plain words, the more calm the situation, the more envied Mrs. Wang would be. Now she is a little dissatisfied with Wang Xifeng. She has been married for so long. She was not pregnant, even though she knew that Jia Zhu's poor health was the main reason, but how could Mrs. Wang blame her son!

It is the daughter-in-law's fault that there is no grandson!

This is an ancient iron law.

That's why Mrs. Wang thought about it when she was a little angry. If she had listened to Jia Mu's words and arranged a marriage for Jia Zhu in advance, wouldn't she have had a grandson in her arms?

Of course, Mrs. Wang can only think about this kind of thing in her heart. No matter what, it is impossible for Jia Zhu to divorce Wang Xifeng, because of face and relationship.

I have to say that Mrs. Zhang and Jia Mu have been fighting wits and courage for so many years, and they are very good at grasping Jia Mu's psychology.Sure enough, when Mother Jia heard that two members of the Xu family had been admitted to Jinshi this time, her attitude immediately changed.

Jinshi is very valuable these days, especially Jinshi with a strong family background is simply a gold ingot, everyone loves it.

Mother Jia rolled her eyes, "What does the Elder Master mean?"

"Master also met Xu's brother and recommended him very much, and let Lian'er learn from Xu's brother! Master is very satisfied with this marriage, but I don't know what the old lady means." In other words, as long as Jia Mu Once you agree to it, the dust settles.

"Heh!" Mother Jia chuckled lightly, "You and the elder are Lian'er's parents. You all agree, so what can I say?" Beyond, this is the unspoken rule of the big society.For example, in this marriage, parents are the first decision-makers.

In the original book, Mother Jia supported Lin Daiyu so much, but it was because Mrs. Wang insisted on her mouth that the marriage between Lin Daiyu and Jia Baoyu was still undecided, which led to the subsequent tragedy.

Mrs. Zhang said with a smile: "Don't say that, old lady. You are the Optimus Prime in the family. Although the eldest girl of the Xu family looks good to us, we still have to ask you to take a look. The salt that the old lady has eaten There are more roads than we have traveled, and the vision must be excellent."

She flattered Jia's mother a little, but Jia's mother ignored her.

Now Jia's mother treats Dafang much better than in the original book, not only because Jia forgives Jia Lian for his future, but also because the Zhang family has never collapsed.Although Wang Ziteng's family has developed well, it is still a little bit worse than the Zhang family, an old brand of scholarly family.

"I'm old, so I still have good eyesight! Since you think it's good, let's meet up sometime!" Mother Jia didn't object to this matter, anyway, whether it's right or wrong is up to Dafang himself.Even though the eldest house is promising now, in Jia Mu's heart, her last support is the second house.

For Jia's mother, it would be nice to have more relatives from a scholarly family in the family. In the future, when Jia Zhu is healthy and wants to take the imperial examination, then this is a ready-made door, how wonderful!With the relationship between the two families, as long as the request is not excessive, the Xu family will definitely not refuse.

Jia's mother's thoughts are very good for the second room, but what Jia's mother never imagined is that the hatred between the eldest room and the second room has accumulated in places where she didn't pay attention, and it can't be dispelled no matter what. .

Mrs. Wang's narrow-mindedness is not ordinary, and Mrs. Zhang's narrow-mindedness is not too big. In addition, Jia's mother has always been partial to the second room and the muddy handling, but the second room is only Jia Zhu who can really make a move. , causing the masters of the two rooms to dislike anyone.

If Jia's mother died, Jia Amnesty promised that he would be able to drive Jia Zheng out of Rongguo Mansion the next day.It's a pity that Jia's mother's life is not ordinary, but very long.

It was said that the smile on Mrs. Zhang's face deepened. She could understand Jia Mu's words, which meant that she agreed, but it was better for the two parties to find a chance to meet each other.

The meaning of Mrs. Zhang is the same. Even if the second room can't interfere with Jia Lian's marriage, as long as they are tough, they can't interfere with Jia's mother. But after all, people who live in the same room don't care about what they are like underneath, but on the surface everyone Still want to be affectionate.

There is no such thing as a granddaughter-in-law getting married without showing her grandmother a glance.

Xu is that Jia Lian is destined to have good luck, and Xu's appearance is very beautiful.It's just that she is different from Wang Xifeng's high-spirited and 'spicy'. Although her appearance is beautiful, but more importantly, her temperament. Anyone who sees her will involuntarily praise her, "As expected of the eldest daughter of a scholarly family with extraordinary bearing."

Although Jia's mother likes younger girls who are more lively, it's not that she can't accept girls with other temperaments. Xu's appearance is in line with Jia's mother's aesthetics. The arrival was also orderly, and Jia's mother felt pretty good at first sight.

Mother Jia thought it was good, Mrs. Jia She and Mrs. Zhang and the Xu family had no problem, the marriage was settled like this, and they just waited for the horoscope to pick a good day, and let the two get married.

As for other people's opinions, especially those of Erfang, they were all ignored!
