Sister Xue of the Red Chamber

Chapter 54 Father and Son Husband and Wife

Let's talk about Jia Lian's truth-seeking lack of entry into the Ministry of Industry to marry a talented wife

Jia Amnesty got the news that Mrs. Wang had delivered a message to Yuanchun, so she spent a whole day thinking about it alone in the study, and then sent Jia Lian to come the next day.

"Father."

Jia She looked at his son, he was tall and tall, with bright eyes and sparse eyebrows, he was personable and handsome.After getting his son, he stopped fooling around outside, and at first glance he looked a bit refined.Although he was not as capable of bluffing as Jia Baoyu, he was a little more resolute.

In the past, everyone praised Baoyu for having the best health. His face was like rice noodles, and his lips were like fat. Isn't that the son of a rabbit?

"Lian'er, come here." Jia Amnesty beckoned to Jia Lian, telling him to come closer.

"Your second aunt has done something stupid again." Jia She said softly.

Jia Lian asked suspiciously: "These days, isn't Second Uncle very quiet? A few days ago, Second Aunt asked Sister Feng to help manage the accounts...but because of this? She has already pushed it away."

Jia She sighed, "It's the Lin family's business."

"What's wrong with Second Aunt planning to go to the Lin family again! I don't know if Sister Feng didn't tell me. In the period of filial piety, if you open the side door, you are afraid that you will offend your family members, so you have to go through the corner door. You also specially asked two useful women to guard the door, as if someone would refute her order!" Who" naturally refers to Jia's mother. Jia Lian didn't say it clearly, but Jia Amnesty had already understood it. "Later, we asked the serious grandsons and granddaughters of Jia's family to squeeze into the East Courtyard, so as to make room for her niece's niece. I heard that there were a few rough envoys who gossip about Cousin Lin's pettiness, and she also ordered her. That's all. I divided the hairpins carefully, and I fell in love with Jinsinan's box! There is no one with a shallower eyelid! I will build a garden later, but fortunately, Sister Feng can dodge quickly. Zhou Rui's family went to the Lin Mansion to ask for money. I thought I couldn't afford to lose face like this. One after another, what is she planning now!"

Mrs. Wang has been annoyed by Sister Feng's side these days. Every day when she returns to her room, she pulls Jia Lian and talks.After coming and going, the husband and wife saw a lot of inside stories.

Mrs. Wang relied on herself to be ahead of Mrs. Xing, and some pointed out that Mrs. Xing was just a filling-in successor, and she was always trying to overwhelm her.She was in charge of all the housework in Jia's mansion, and Madam Xing did not touch anything.After Wang Xifeng came in, perhaps because of the loss of a son, and because Sister Feng was her natal niece, Mrs. Wang just let her go and asked Wang Xifeng to help take care of it.

When Sister Feng became pregnant, she seemed to want to get closer to Dafang, she immediately turned her face on him and drove him back to live in Dafang's yard. Care for your baby.”

Mrs. Wang has been pampered and pampered for so many years, and the housework is complicated and trivial, how can she manage it!At first I asked Baochai to help take care of it, but I was reprimanded by Jia's mother, and there was never any reason to ask a guest to be a housekeeper!Even so, she was willing to persevere, and never said a word to ask Sister Feng to help.

Now if you want to look for Sister Feng again, it's probably because there is a big mistake in the book!Sister Feng has also been in charge of the accounts, so she knows the twists and turns. Over the years, a lot of dowry has been filled in.Thinking about Mrs. Wang's private treasury again, I made a wild guess.

Now when Jia She said that Mrs. Wang was plotting against the Lin family, Jia Lian's complaints came out like a cannonball, which shocked Jia She.

Seeing Jia She's glaring at him, Jia Lian calmed herself down and said, "Cousin Lin has just been promoted. Why is Second Aunt rushing to plot against the Lin family at this time?"

"It's not about Daiyu." Jia She sighed, "Min'er is the eldest daughter of Rong Guogong, my compatriot sister. What is that Wang family who dares to plot against her daughter!"

"But for her family's Baoyu? Isn't Cousin Lin going to the general election now? You can't get married privately, and it's useless no matter how much the old lady thinks about it. Isn't it just what she wants? She doesn't go to the temple to burn incense Wish, what are you still fussing about?"

Jia She said in a low voice: "She is afraid that your cousin Lin will steal the favor of Yuanchun from her family in winter!"

"Drink!" Jia Lian exclaimed in surprise, "This is really self-indulgent. Sister Feng told me that Cousin Lin's marriage has already been agreed with Xue's family. As the eldest princess, she is begging the emperor or queen mother." Give a marriage proposal, this kind of marriage is more decent, and there are."

Jia She said with a smile: "She's sizing up that everyone wants to enter the palace! She has already sent someone to Yuan Chun, demanding that the empress, Daiyu be crossed out during the primary election!"

"Isn't this pushing the whole family of Jia's family to their death!" Jia Lian said anxiously.

"Tell your daughter-in-law to deliver a message to the eldest princess' mansion later." Jia She said, "the second room is like this, I'm afraid something will happen. Tell your daughter-in-law to go to the eldest princess's mansion a few more times to beg for you." One is missing."

"Really lacking?" Jia Lian was puzzled. He had held the false title of five-rank co-prefect for many years, so why did he suddenly want to find out the real lack?

"I'm watching everything in the mansion. Now that Mrs. Wang is asking your wife to take care of the accounts, there are naturally some injustices on the accounts. Now she can't ask your wife to take the blame for her, so naturally she has to find another way. No matter what the method is, I'm afraid she will push you on the head if something goes wrong. It's better to ask you to go out of office and have a serious job, so you don't have to worry about her anymore. Otherwise, if the situation is not right, you can ask for a release. Dodge her."

Jia Lian asked for an errand at the other end, but Bao Xuan didn't push it or answer. He just said to ask if there was any shortage first, so he went into the palace to ask Qianlong.

After hearing this, Qianlong asked, "It's a pity that his family also started with military exploits, but no one in this generation practiced martial arts. Since Jia Lian really lacks one, he is the top five rank, except for the six doctors and the six divisions. I'm afraid he won't be able to do it as the Shaoqing of Lu Temple. It is okay to take a step back from the fifth rank to go up to Liubu member Wailang and the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple; let him go further from the fourth rank to Nowhere. Which one can he do? ?”

Bao Xuan laughed and said: "Brother Huang doesn't think about it, if there is something missing, ask him what he can do?"

Qianlong waved his hand, "The left and right are only one fifth rank, and the third rank in the capital can't be counted down. If you give it, you will give it. If you do well, you will be promoted. If you don't do well, you will be dismissed. .As for nothing missing, it’s not a big deal to move one out.”

Lin Heyu said from the side: "It used to be that his husband and wife took care of all the affairs and human relations of the Rong Mansion. Not to mention, the family-in-law's courtyard was built by the two of them with additions and subtractions. This Jia Lian He can be regarded as a good hand in communication and supervising fortifications. The Department of Hosts and Guests of the Ministry of Rites, the Department of Catering of the Ministry of Industry, and Guanglu Temple are all good."

"Let's go to the Ministry of Industry." Qianlong made a decision. "Nowadays there are so many foreigners, he can't do it at the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple."

Bao Xuan laughed when he heard the words: "This is really a coincidence. Then Jia Zheng is staying in the Ministry of Industry."

"Which one is Jia Zheng? His relatives?" Qianlong asked doubtfully.

"He just didn't have the word 'Guo Zhang' written on his face. Isn't it the biological father of Concubine Xiande and the second master of the Jia family? He robbed Jia Amnesty of the official position that should have been rewarded by others They are all five-rank, he was demoted to be the head of the sixth-rank Ministry of Industry; he was promoted later, and was a member of the fifth-rank Ministry of Industry; he has not moved for decades." Baoxuan laughed, "It's better to call Jia Lian will go to the Ministry of Industry and become a catering officer, to see if Jia Zheng can look down and help his nephew!"

Qianlong said: "I remember when you said that. The Jia Shi family forced Jia Amnesty to give up his son to let him be an official. The holy ancestor was so angry that he casually pointed out the title of chief officer. Later, I looked at the face of Xianrong Guogong He got promoted, but he never pointed out which company he went to work in. Speaking of which, he has been dawdling all these years, he is really a vegetarian!" As he spoke, he glanced at Baoxuan, "Since you want to see the excitement , so he asked his uncle and nephew to go to the Food Department to stay together. It’s just a Jia’s house, if you’re happy, just take it as a joke. No one will mess around with his house.”

It's not a big deal for the emperor to randomly point to a fifth-grade doctor.

An imperial decree was issued, and Jia Lian went to the Ministry of Industry to get the seal and official uniform that day, and went to the Ministry to take up his post the next day.

Unexpectedly, on the first day of taking office, Jia Lian was dumbfounded.His family's second uncle, who has been inactive for thousands of years and has not been promoted, was accused of being his deputy.

Hadaha, Minister of the Department of Industry, came to see Jia Lian for a while with a cup of tea, then took a sip, and sighed quietly: "I know that the second son of Jia's Lian has always been pure and filial. It's just that being an official is no better than being at home. Although Wailang is your second uncle, he is your subordinate in the ministry. If you have anything to tell him to do, you must not be scrupled just because he is your second uncle, so that you can dismiss the public for personal reasons. Do you remember? "

Jia Lian hurriedly responded.

Hadaha looked at Jia Zheng again and said: "Jia Yuanwailang must also remember. The ministry is no better than home. Here, Jia Lang is your official superior. You must not rely on your status as an elder and put on those airs for nothing. You missed the official business!"

Jia Zheng hurriedly said, "It's easy to be an official."

Despite Hadaha's orders, Jia Lian still did not dare to use Jia Zheng very well.Without him, firstly, the two of them are uncles and nephews, even if others don't talk too much, a "serious person" like Jia Zheng would feel uncomfortable; secondly, although Jia Zheng has been an official for many years, he is not serious at all. He has never done any work before, and he is considered a novice now. Jia Lian still has a headache teaching him, so how dare he entrust him with the work?

After barely staying in the ministry for a day, Jia Lian was very helpless when he talked about it with Sister Feng after returning home. "It's either me or the second uncle. Someone must have collided with something to cause such trouble!"

Sister Feng smiled and said, "Are you trying to work hard, or are you thinking about saving face for your second uncle?"

Jia Lian said angrily: "There is no one who cherishes his face more than him, and I don't have to save it for him. Put on those high-minded faces all day long, but if there is any work, nine out of ten times it must be" It's a disgrace to the gentleman, the only thing is that he didn't take the Qingkes he raised to applaud him. This is the Food and Beverage Department of the Ministry of Industry! He has the ability, and he will try to go to the Hanlin Academy after the end, so why bother? here!"

"Come here with your ear, and I'll tell you something." Sister Feng smiled lightly, "You men don't pay attention to these things outside, this is the doorway inside the house. If you have business in the future, you can do it in front of the big guys. After dividing up the work, I will warmly greet our second master if he can do it. No matter what he says, you just grab it and do it..."

Jia Lian interrupted her: "Isn't this going to exhaust me to death?"

Sister Feng pinched him, and said angrily: "Do I seem to be someone who can come up with bad ideas? The camp repair department is just a matter of building and repairing gardens. You can't finish it, so quietly bring it to me. Let's close the door Come on, who knows? From now on, others will only say that you are pure filial piety, and that you are capable. As for the second master, let's take care of him!"

The author has something to say: When I wrote about Jia Hu, I was a little confused, wondering if I had watched too many Red Chamber fans

So I went to Baidu and it is said:

It is written in the "Wu Changben" that above Jia Lian, "the eldest son, Jia Hu, died young", and under Jia Lian, "there was another son from a concubine", making a total of three sons.

Then there is also that when Leng Zixing made a speech at the Rongguo Mansion, he clearly stated that Jia Amnesty had only two sons, read the original text

After Zhenggong had Yu'er, his concubine gave birth to another one, but I don't know what's good or bad.There are only two sons and one grandson in front of me, but I don't know what the future will be.If you ask Mr. She, he also has two sons, named Jia Lian, who have been dating for twenty now...

Jia Zheng has two sons, and Jia She "also has" two sons.This "also" is a bit embarrassing, it is also possible that an eldest son died just like Jia Zheng's...

So let’s take it as if there really is Jia Hu!

Nearly finished writing, I found that there seemed to be another doctor in the camp repair department in the red building, Qin Zhong's father. . .Forget it, the official position is the same. . .At this time, Qin Bangye had already died. . . . . .
