Jia Zhu, the White Magic God of the Red Chamber

Chapter 54

Jia Shishi hurriedly wrote a letter and asked the people below to send it to Zhenshenggong's mansion, but he didn't know that after leaving the inner courtyard, the letter did not go outside the general's mansion, but went to Jia Amnesty's hands.After weighing the not-so-light letter in his hand, Jia She raised his eyebrows: "Do you know what the old lady wrote in this letter?"

The servant standing below smiled obsequiously: "Master, this letter was written by my younger sister, so I know something about it."

"Yeah." Jia Amnesty nodded, "Let's hear it."

Now that the second bedroom has moved out, he wants to see what his good mother will do.

In the past, neither he nor Jia Zheng had much promise for the two households in the Rongguo Mansion, and they had to rely on the old lady in the mansion who had excellent orders and connections.Now that Jia Zhu of the Second Household is promising, the Second Household no longer has to rely on the old lady's breath, and has moved out of the General's Mansion.

The old lady lost the second room to play balance for her, and now the eldest room is the serious owner of the house.Even Nanny Lai's family sells them to those who send them off to officials. It can be said that there is no confidant in the old lady's house.

Although he has always been partial and dissatisfied with Jia Shishi, Jia She still admires her wholeheartedly.As long as the old lady doesn't show any problems, his son should serve her, the old lord, well.With the property left to him by his grandmother, he is not short of money.

But if Jia Shishi does anything else, don't blame him for not giving her face.

Jia Amnesty's dissatisfaction with Erfang has never disappeared, even though Erfang has moved out now.However, as long as Jia Zhu is with Erfang, Jia Amnesty will not openly confront Erfang.Being wise and protecting one's life is a rule of conduct Jia She learned from her grandmother since she was sensible, but neither Jia Shishi nor the former Jia Daishan knew this, and always thought about the glory of Rongguo Mansion.

Jia Amnesty is just the elder of the Rongguo Mansion, and he can't understand the chaos of the servants below, let alone the royal family!

He is not very capable, but he has a lot of self-knowledge.

"The old lady's letter was written to the old lady of Zhenshenggong's mansion, saying that she is the grandmother of the eldest girl in Zhenshenggong's mansion, and she actually engaged the eldest girl without revealing anything. Is the old lady right about this marriage?" I admit it, let the old man of the True Shenggong Mansion quickly return this kiss." The servant bowed his head and quickly and succinctly summed up the central idea of ​​Jia Shishi's letter.

"Retire?" Jia She put down the tea bowl in his hand with a "touch", and his face became extremely ugly, "Madam, do you know that Yuan Chun's marriage is already known in the capital, if the marriage is divorced, the girls of the Jia family will not even think about it." Proposal for marriage! The old lady is getting more and more confused!"

The boy lowered his head even more.No matter how indifferent this old lady is, she is also the master of the mansion, but it is not something that a servant like him can say casually.It was possible when the mansion was Rongguo Mansion before, but how many servants were left at that time?

Jia She chanted a lot angrily, and finally picked up the cold tea and drank it in one gulp, then said in a cold tone: "Let your sister tell the old lady that the marriage between Yuan Chun and Master Liu was bestowed by the sage himself. Although the decree has not been invented yet, the marriage has already been approved by the saint. Do you understand?"

"Yes, I know." The servant nodded hurriedly, hesitated for a moment, and still looked at the letter in Jia She's hand, "Then, do you want to send this to the Zhenshenggong Mansion?"

"Send it, why not!" Jia She sneered, "But don't send this letter to some old man, just send it to the real Shenggong. Since they are all old men, it's time to rest and recuperate in their old age , you can't use these mundane things to disturb the tranquility of his old man!"

Hearing this, the boy blushed from suppressed laughter, took the letter from Jia Amnesty with both hands, and retreated out of the study.This Jia Zheng used to be the master of Rongguo, the younger brother of the master of the general's mansion.Jia Amnesty has not yet spent his old age in peace, how could Jia Zheng start to recuperate!

The master is dissatisfied with the old man of the real Shenggong mansion!

But yes, this Rongguo Mansion belongs to the master, but when the second room was not separated, it was under the pressure of the first room for so many years.If his family's parents also let the younger brother or younger sister overwhelm him, he wouldn't have swallowed his anger for so many years like the old man.

Filial piety is what it should be, but this filial piety should also be divided into people!The old lady in the mansion was so eccentric, although the people who served below never said anything, they were all clear in their hearts.It's just that since he is a servant, he naturally has to listen to the words of the master of the house.

The same is true of their family, but their family is more law-abiding than others.No matter what the master's family is, it is still the master's family. The lives of the whole family are in the hands of the master's family, so why bother to think about things that should not belong to you.

Let's split the Lai family before. It is said that the grandson of Nanny Lai, the son of Da Lai, and Lai Shangrong, who was released as soon as Luocao, still need to get a county magistrate through the relationship of the Rongguo Mansion. What about now?The Lai family has long since disappeared, and the young master of the Lai family is now in a well-known small brothel in the capital.

Although Na Lai Shangrong's appearance is not very handsome, his skin and temperament are not so good. After all, he was raised in wealth when he was young.Thinking of this, the boy was a little moved.But thinking about the daughter-in-law who was about to get married, he suppressed the evil fire again.

He's no better than Second Master Lian—oh, no, he's Uncle Lian now—it's better to guard the family well.

On the other side, when Jia Shishi got the maid's reply, he was sullen and didn't mention it. Here, Ya'erlin smiled when he received the letter from the general's mansion, and sent someone to send it to Mrs. Wang.

The old lady Jia Shishi is really troublesome. As a grandson, he can't directly refute or do other things because of his filial piety, but Mrs. Wang, a daughter-in-law, can make trouble for her from the inner house.What's more, the letter was sent to him instead of Jia Zheng's, which meant that the old lady's status in the General's Mansion was completely different from that in the Rongguo Mansion.

That's right, without Jia Zheng's killing of Jia Shishi, she also has no way to suppress Jia Amnesty.Now she is just the old lord of the General's Mansion, and she can't even interfere with the affairs of the General's Mansion, let alone their real Shenggong Mansion.Besides, according to the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker, Jia Yuanchun's parents are both present, and it is not Jia Shishi's grandmother's turn to decide her marriage.

Mrs. Wang received the letter, and the literate maid beside her was reading it to her.The rules of the Wang family's upbringing of their daughters have always been that they can only know a few words. She is okay with reading books, but reading letters and writing is embarrassing for her.After hearing the girl read the letter, Mrs. Wang sneered.

This old lady is still dreaming that she is the old matriarch of the Rongguo Mansion!

In the past, in order for her children to have a good future, she could only endure the old lady in Rongguo Mansion.Now her son Jia Zhu is a big celebrity before the two saints, and also the master of many clan children, she doesn't need to look at the color of the old lady anymore.

Jia Yuanchun was her daughter, who was carried to the old lady three days after she was born.But she is different from Jia Shishi. Jia Shishi is extremely displeased with Jia She who was brought up by her mother-in-law, but she loves the child crawling out of her womb.

So what if Jia Yuanchun was brought up by an old lady, she is Jia Yuanchun's biological mother, this is a fact that no one can change.Even though Jia Yuanchun was closer to Jia Shishi because of Jia Shishi's upbringing when she was a child, but when she was older and sensible, didn't she know how to be close to her mother and brother Jia Zhu?

Mrs. Wang didn't understand, what was the gap between Jia Shishi and Mrs. Rong Guogong, it was worth her not to see her own son so much.Of course, Mrs. Wang was very fortunate about this at that time.Who made her the wife of Erfang Jiazheng? She and Dafang were natural enemies.

"What does the master say?" Mrs. Wang asked the girl who read the letter.

"The person who came over from the master didn't say anything, just asked to hand this letter to the old lady." The girl folded the letter and placed it on the low plane in front of Mrs. Wang.

"Well, you go down." Waving the girl back, Mrs. Wang relaxed her body and leaned back, looking at the letter on the desk with inexplicable eyes.

Since Zhu'er didn't say anything, it meant that there was no need to tell Jia Zheng about it.That's right, the three letters and six ceremonies have all started to go, and Emperor Chengzheng will formally decree the marriage soon, even if the old lady gets angry again, it won't change anything.

Mrs. Wang felt that her current old lady was living a very happy life. Even though Jia Baoyu was really naughty compared to Zhu'er, it was still better than being spoiled by the old lady.At least she is raising this son as a son, unlike the old lady who treats him like a girl.

In the end, there were only a few people who knew about the incident caused by Jia Shishi. Jia Zheng, who she most wanted to know about her dissatisfaction, had no idea that it happened.The old saint's birthday is getting closer and closer, and Taichang Temple has more work recently. Even with Lin Ruhai's help, he doesn't have so much time to pay attention to these small things in the inner house.

Jia Zheng, who doesn't even understand general affairs, can't understand how terrible it is to have the back house collapsed.

Jia Yuanchun learned about this from Li Wan, and after her face changed, she continued to embroider purses.This was for Liu Xianglian when she was in Xiaoding. She usually doesn't do much sewing. Now that she is in such a hurry, she doesn't have enough time. How can she have the energy to care about these things.

After all, the old lady is only the old lady of the General's Mansion, and this is the real Shenggong's mansion, so her brother should be in charge.

The days passed like this, and three months later, the Xue family and his party came to the capital.After resting for a while, according to etiquette, Xue Xun first sent invitations to Xue Wang's natal family, Wang's family, and then the real Shenggong's mansion.However, in Xue Xun's heart, the status of these two families is completely different, as can be seen from the gift he gave.

The Wang family looked expensive but in fact they were all valuable gold, silver, jewelry and antiques, but what he sent to the Zhenshenggong's mansion were the only copies, calligraphy and paintings he had collected outside over the years.Although the Jia family also started with military exploits, Jia Zhu is a member of Guibang High School.Since I am a scholar, I naturally value these more.He wanted to get close to the real Shenggong's mansion, so the gifts should naturally match his preferences.

Wang Ziteng was not clear about Xue Xun's idea, he took the gift list from his wife and was very satisfied with Xue's visit.

Before Xue Xun was in charge of the Jiangnan General Administration Department, even if he had an idea, he didn't dare to do it.Now he is not only a white body but also does not even have the qualifications of an imperial merchant, and he has moved to this capital to live, what is it if he is not given a chance to get his name right.
