The struggle of the Nanny of the Red Chamber

Even the chief steward of a mansion is just a high-ranking servant, so his thoughts are not in the eyes of the master.The master entrusted such an important matter to him, so he could trust him.If this is not done well, there is still any resentment, and the master's family is not unavailable.

The Lai family, who deeply understood this point, really regretted it.A servant who is a slave, but still wants to be strong by his master, deserves to be dealt with.

However, it was also because of suffering in the past few years that Da Lai's family, including Nanny Lai, had the idea of ​​leaving the nationality earlier.Her son is not young anymore, so the years of running around, his body can't take it anymore.

However, Mammy Lai thought about the future of her eldest grandson, so she thought about waiting for a few more years until the eldest grandson was formally appointed as an official, and then the whole family would leave their citizenship.

Anyway, the grandma's housekeeper is three points stricter than the old lady's housekeeper, and the little oil and water in a year is not as good as it used to be in a month.It's no longer worth relying on Jia's house.

And when the eldest grandson gets an official position, the whole family will follow him to take up the post, which is also a reason.After being so many servants and servants, at the end of the day, he must always turn back to his master and turn around, so that his life in this world is not in vain.

However, the Lai family, who had calculated well at this time, did not expect that when they left the Jia family, the Jia family would not need to send people to the south every year.

In fact, the Lai family also thought of a reason. The brothers in the mansion are better than the average person in reading and learning. In the future, they will be appointed as officials and released outside.And at that time, the world is far and wide, how can it be just a Jiangnan.

Jiangnan, the Lin family.

The Lin family had a child, and even though it was a girl, she held it in her hands like a treasure.After many years of single transmission, the Lin family never had two children, let alone a daughter.

Although Lin Ruhai regrets that he is not a son, it is better than the barrenness under his knees in the past few years.

Yes, it's better than nothing.

So not only did he personally give the baby a baby name, but he also sent people to go out of the house to distribute porridge and food.

If it is said that among these people, Jia Min is the one who feels the most inadequate and regretful.She really desperately needs a son.So, regardless of the persuasion of her mother and her natal sister-in-law, since she was confinement, she has been actively preparing for pregnancy like her second wife, Aunt Zhao.

The Lin family has been passed down for several generations, and there is not even a relative in the five servers.The Lin family is no better than the Lin family.Even adoption, there is no choice.If she and those concubines of the Lin family don't have a son again, the incense of the Lin family will really be cut off.

Sitting on a baby and recruiting a son-in-law?Who would be willing to be an ambitious man.The aristocratic family can't afford to lose that face.The children of the poor, who can believe in education and faith.If another person with ulterior motives is recruited in, the century-old reputation of the Lin family will be ruined overnight.

Jia Min thought he couldn't afford such a consequence, and he had no face to meet the Lin family's ancestors after his death.Therefore, regardless of life and death, the only purpose is for the Lin family to have a male heir.

So Jia Min brought the Lin family's concubines into action.

Even so, Jia Min also felt that the possibility of her conceiving again was higher than other people who had not given birth.Sure enough, under the desperate tonic and sexual intercourse, Jia Min became pregnant again after a few months.

But at this time, the Jia family's attention has long been attracted by Jia Zheng, who has kept his wife and filial piety for one year.

After Mrs. Zhang assisted her daughter-in-law Shui, she was busy preparing the gift for Jia Min, and Mrs. Shi urged her to choose a wife for her son.

It's funny to say, Jia Lian has also reached his age, and Mrs. Zhang is also going to show her second son a girl.He is also the second son of another family, but the criteria for choosing a spouse are incomparable.

Shi's second son, Jia Zheng, when they first got married, the reason why the Wang family married their first daughter in was just for the sake of Rongguo Mansion and Rongguo Duke.Then I heard that Jia Zheng is good at reading and has a good character.

For the four major families, they really need a civil servant to enter the dynasty.So Jia Zheng, who had high hopes, married the daughter of the royal family.

But at that time, she was the original partner, so it doesn't matter if she has a higher status.Moreover, Jia Zheng was young at that time, just at the age of studying, and everyone regarded him as a blue-chip stock, so they were naturally willing to invest first.

But now it's different. Jia Zheng took the exams and passed the exams, but he failed in anything.Then the father died, and he was given a job title, which saved decades of hard work and became a fifth-rank Yuanwailang directly.

But not only did Jia Zheng stop fighting for decades, he really stopped fighting. After decades of work, Wailang, a member of the Ministry of Industry, insisted on getting out of prison.

At this time, everyone would no longer have any hope for Jia Zheng's future future, and his original spouse died, and he had four children, three of whom were born directly.Such a person, who's good girl would like him?The most important thing is that some well-connected people know that the first room and the second room have been separated long ago, not only the two rooms are separated, but the second room is also separated.The share of the family business inherited by the eldest son has long been divided.

Does such a half-empty marriage really have a future?

Don't look like he is the son of Duke Rong, who was born in a straight line, but who made Duke Rong go to the underground to play three-on-one decades ago.

It is some villains who follow the trend and are willing to marry the girl in the family to the Jia family, but they are not married to the second-hand political master who will separate sooner or later, but to the two elder brothers who are not married.

Minus the young one, isn't there still a master Juren who is not married.

These two are not better than their own fathers, but compared to their brothers in terms of number and prospects, Jia Lian is a complete winner.

Therefore, those who are in love with the Shi family are either not in love with Jia Zheng, or they are in love with Jia Lian.Among Zhang's friends, none of them were willing to marry Jia Zheng.For a while, both mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were embarrassed.

How come we came to see each other together?It's a mess.It's purely a slap in the face.

However, after Shi Shi lowered his requirements, after a lot of picking and choosing, the Xing family from back then was selected again.

"Old lady, is this girl from the Xing family too low-status? Besides, she is getting older, so she may be insufficient in childbearing. I don't think she is as good as this girl from the Liu family. Although she is a concubine, the Liu family There is no girl, and she has been raised as a daughter-in-law. I was a guest in the house before, and I met him once. He seems to be a good person." Although Mrs. Zhang can't guarantee that the Liu family will agree to this marriage.

Mrs. Zhang watched as her mother-in-law chose such a poor family for her uncle.Some hesitantly persuaded.Who knows what kind of upbringing a girl from such a family is.

"Oh, I also know. Although Zheng'er is the second master of our Rongguo Mansion, he is only a fifth-rank official after all. Ordinary people, who would be willing to marry in as a successor. Besides, Zhu'er hasn't married yet, and the eldest girl is also the second wife." There is no appointment. There is also a child like Baoyu. If he is from a family, there are these three children standing in front of him. If he has a good heart, it is fine. If he is not close, it is the family's education method. Alas! "

Shi Shi is very aware of the marriage standards of this year.Marrying a daughter-in-law is low, marrying a daughter is high.When Jia Daishan was still alive, it was easy to say.A good girl is her choice.But now.They can only be picked by others.

Now Jia Zheng's status is to marry his first wife.It is estimated that she is also the daughter of a fifth- and sixth-rank official family.What's more, if you marry a second wife, your status will be lowered.

In addition, Shi also had to consider the three children left by his first daughter-in-law.So after choosing and choosing, only the eldest girl of the Xing family is left.

This girl is in her twenties this year.The reason why he has not left the cabinet so far is because he has kept filial piety successively.In addition, because she is the eldest sister, she first arranged for her brother to get married.This is what I want to think about myself.

It's just that the Xing family has fallen.The only official father also left early.This girl Xing's marriage has become a big problem.

One is that they are old, and the other is that they don't want to be matched with ordinary people casually.After a year or two, the years were wasted and she became an old girl.

Zhang Shi didn't understand Shi Shi's consideration and the feeling of licking the calf.

"It's just that in this way, I have wronged my second brother." How can an older girl from such a family be easy to get along with.Mrs. Zhang is a little worried that she will live in the same mansion in the future, and it will be difficult to get along with her.

Mrs. Zhang felt that she had wronged her uncle, but how could Mrs. Shi, as her own mother, not feel the same way.This kind of mentality also directly led to Shi's picky nose and picky eyes after Xing's entry.

"Oh, this is fate. The second child is not too young. Let's take it as self-cultivation." She also feels sorry for her son, but she can't blame him for not being up to date.

If Zheng'er has the prince Teng of the royal family, he can do it, so why worry about not having a good wife.

Mrs. Zhang just nodded and stopped talking.

Shi Shi and Zhang Shi decided on the candidates, and they only notified Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng brothers after dinner that day.Jia Amnesty didn't care what kind of wife his younger brother would marry.

Now he is fully preparing to knead a set of porcelain for this year's old lady's birthday gift.

That's right, porcelain.Jia She, who was very obsessed with pottery before, has changed his mind.He has now entered the embrace of porcelain on the basis of pottery.

Mrs. Zhang is very supportive of Jia Amnesty's hobby.It's better to like these messy things than to be like the old man who likes to read but can't understand.I like red sleeves to add fragrance, but I can't tell the difference between Li Kui and Li Gui.

That Aunt Zhao was vulgar and unbearable, and she didn't know a single big character, so she regarded it as a treasure.Thinking of Aunt Zhao's tossing energy, Mrs. Zhang had to sigh, thanks to the early death of the second sibling, otherwise she would have died of anger several times.

As for the old lady Shi Shi, she also knew that her eldest son was busy with her birthday present.There was also a burst of joy in my heart.The boss is really filial for so many years.

Being so happy, the old lady rewarded Jia Amnesty with a lot of antiques.Happily, Jia Amnesty had someone set up another antique rack in his inner study.

In the future, when the Jia family is defeated, relying on the decoration of the grand master's study, it is estimated that the three generations of the Jia family's children will have enough food and clothing.

The six rituals went through one by one, and the wedding date was set at the end of October.The eldest daughter of the Xing family had already cut the material of the wedding dress a few years ago.Some things that can be embroidered in advance are also prepared one by one.After the marriage was confirmed, he hurriedly finished the rest.

The Xing family found out that Mrs. Xian was the daughter of the Wang family.Du Taiwei controls the descendants of the princes of the county.The family is wealthy, and the dowry is so thick that even a hundred Xing families can't afford it.

Thinking of this, the Xing family, who originally thought about packing up the Xing family's property and bringing it into the house to face the face, and then slowly moved it back to the Xing family, gave up this idea.

Even if you take all of them, it's not as good as others, so why bother.Thinking of the news she had sent someone to inquire about before, Xing thought, if it was the eldest lady in the mansion, she could fight.Although the eldest wife was also from a wealthy family, the dowry was also numerous.But compared to the daughter of the Wang family in "The East China Sea lacks a white jade bed, the Dragon King came to invite the King of Jinling", it is much worse.And calligraphy and painting accounted for one-third of the total dowry.

Unfortunately, not the lady.But on second thought, fortunately not.You must know that the grandson of that lady is about to be one year old.When she entered the door, she still had to live by watching her daughter-in-law's face every day.

The grandson Xing mentioned was the son born to Grandma Hu Shui. Although he will not be one year old in about two months, his name has already come out, Jia Zhi.

Now they are raised with Baoyu by Shi's side, because they look about the same age.The two uncles and nephews can always play together, so Shi Shi didn't clean up the room alone, and let both uncles and nephews sleep in the green gauze cupboard.

However, the treatment of the two in Jia's family is different.One is the eldest grandson of the first wife, and the other is the second son of the second wife.A mother with a housekeeper grandmother, and a mother who died young.Even if they are both raised in the old lady's room, everyone treats them differently.

Fortunately, Mrs. Zhang really loves Baoyu, so whoever has his own son or grandson will definitely have Baoyu.Seeing this, everyone will be more or less scrupulous.

Coupled with the constant care of my sister, life is easier.

Compared with Baoyu, who makes everyone feel distressed, the life of the third girl is a bit unsalty.There should be some examples, but there is no shortage of them, but neither the masters of the first room nor Jia Zhu Yuanchun of the second room have a cold for this girl.

Although Mrs. Zhang attaches great importance to the upbringing of girls, she also needs to be aware of her background.The third girl has such an aunt, what else is worth caring about.

And now she still has Yuanchun and Yingchun in her hands.Even if it's for the sake of making the two of them rank good and bad, they shouldn't pay too much attention to the third girl.

Sometimes, if you are too fraternal, that concern is worthless.

Zhang's thinking is somewhat different from Shi's.It is said that love the house and black, the same reasoning proves to the contrary, everyone looks down on Aunt Zhao, so naturally they don't care much about the third girl.

Although it was against the rules for a girl to be kept by the aunt's side, it was only temporary.Wait until the new wife enters the house.Naturally, the head of the house is in charge.

So when Jia Zheng was instigated by Aunt Zhao to ask Shi to educate the third girl, Shi refused on the grounds that he had already been hired by the Xing family.

"Your daughter-in-law is going to enter the mansion a few years ago. Let her take care of you then. I'm getting old too. It's enough to have a few of them around me. No matter how many there are, I can't take care of them."

When Jia Zheng heard this, he said nothing more.I heard that Aunt Zhao broke many things in the house angrily.

Yuan Chun sneered when he heard that, even the eldest aunt asked her to compare the third sister's share with her own, and then deducted three floors, and the second room paid for it herself.I really think I am a treasure.Sure enough, as the Tang Dynasty said, 'Bitch is hypocritical'.

Just after saying this, Yuan Chun was taken aback.Looked to the left and right.He breathed a sigh of relief when he found that the foster mother invited by his aunt was not in front of him.

In the past two years, my aunt spent some thought and finally invited four nuns from the palace.She and her second cousin, Yingchun, are alone.Another one was sent to the Lin family in Jiangnan, and when my aunt gave birth to Cousin Lin, my aunt decided to send the last one there too.

One helped my aunt's housekeeper to take care of her body, and the other helped to take care of and raise Sister Lin.Grandma agreed as soon as she heard it.This made Aunt Zhao, who heard the news when Mammy was packing her luggage, make trouble to the butler's sister-in-law in the lobby.

Hmph, it's just self-inflicted humiliation.

Of course, Aunt Zhao made a fuss about this nanny.But she didn't dare to spread all her grievances on Yuan Chun and Zhang's head, otherwise one would take her brother, nephew and nephew to the knife, and the other would be in a hurry, and she might be sent to the family temple like her.

Because of letting Mrs. Zhao eat turtles, Yuan Chun immediately developed a good impression of this cousin Lin who had never met.Although they were all born during their mother's filial piety.But one was born to his father's concubine, and the other was the daughter of an aunt in the south of the Yangtze River.

The meaning is naturally different.And counting the days, her cousin really wasn't born at that time on purpose, but the third girl was born during the filial piety period, which is absolutely true.

Due to Zong Zong's prejudice, when Jia Yuanchun gained power, before the sisters left the court, he favored Yingchun and Daiyu. Jia Tanchun, the third girl, was never summoned.

The third girl not only has an aunt who makes Yuan Chun wish to have a baby, but also a stepmother who forcibly takes the place of her mother. It is definitely not a good thing for this girl to be summoned by Yuan Chun.

But the third girl didn't think so, she considered herself her own younger sister, much closer than her cousin Yingchun and Lin Daiyu.So he kept running on the road of death, until one day, Yuan Chun gave the third girl's husband a concubine from the palace, and the third girl was completely honest.

Of course, these are things for later.Now the third girl is still feeling very wronged because her aunt can no longer hug her.

Because of Jia Zheng's marriage, the mansion cheered up, even though it was only a second wife.But Mrs. Zhang discussed it with Mrs. Shi, saying that because she wronged her second brother when choosing a wife, the wedding should not be too simple.

Because of the family temple, Mrs. Zhang really loves Mrs. Shi now.Think what she thinks, think what she thinks.Hence the words.When Shi Shi heard this, he couldn't agree more in his heart.

So Zhang and Shui became busy.When they were busy, Aunt Zhao also became busy.

It is said that Aunt Zhao likes to write.And it often hits the mark.It has to be said that it is a kind of talent.

But this time, the Xing family who entered the door the next day caught up.
