The Rich and the Idlers of the Red Chamber

Seeing Jia Jing lying on the wine table and falling asleep like this, Jia Amnesty was astounded, so he had to order his servants to come over to clean up the mess, ordered them to take Jia Jing down to wash and rest, and then went back to the inner courtyard.

In the inner courtyard, Mrs. Zhang had already removed her hairpins and jewelry, and was leaning on the soft couch to read a book. Seeing Jia She come in, she couldn't help being surprised, but she hurriedly stayed on the bed, greeted her, and asked, "Why is it so late, can my cousin be settled?" gone?"

Jia Amnesty smiled and said, "Cousin Jing is drunk, I asked someone to help him down to rest!"

Mrs. Zhang smelled the smell of alcohol on Jia She's body, and while beckoning the servants to come and wash Jia She, while helping Jia She to change his clothes, she said, "You must have drunk a lot too. Alcohol is poisonous to the intestines. You can't do it in the future." drink more!"

"It's okay, I didn't drink much!" With Zhang's help, Jia She quickly changed into homely clothes, washed up properly, pulled Zhang to sit on the bed, and the two lay down together. Jia She suddenly asked Said: "A respectful cousin came over today and said that even though this title caused him to be excluded in the Imperial Academy, he still couldn't let it go, Yuan'er, I gave up that title before, and our children can only start as commoners in the future, you... ..."

Mrs. Zhang covered Jia She's mouth with her hand, and said softly: "Enhou, I really don't care. How did the Zhang family ever have any titles? No matter what, we avenged Hu'er, and Hu'er is under Jiuquan." You can also rest in peace, this is what we want as parents, titles and so on are just things outside the body, how can they compare with Hu'er!"

Jia Amnesty also smiled. He held Zhang's soft hand, turned sideways, looked at Zhang's soft and jade-like face under the candlelight, and said softly, "Yuan'er, what you said is right! I only hate you." , did not make a decision earlier, in that case, Hu'er would not have died!"

Mrs. Zhang sighed softly, and held Jia She's hand instead: "Enhou, it's not your fault!"

Jia She hugged Zhang Shi, kissed Zhang Shi gently on the cheek, and whispered in her ear: "Yuan'er, let's have another child!"

Zhang's ears were red, she listened to Jia She's gentle words and said her imagination, first give birth to a younger brother for Hu'er, and then a younger sister, and when her son grows up, marry a wife and have children, so it will be fine in the future Give Hu'er a child to inherit the incense, and don't let Hu'er have no one to worship in the underworld.

Mrs. Zhang was also yearning for a while when she heard it, and she felt an incomparable longing in her heart, but she didn't realize that Jia She's hand stretched out her clothes and took them off. fascinated.

One night, the next day Jia Amnesty woke up, looked at Zhang Shi's ruddy face with a smile on his face, he lowered his head and kissed Zhang Shi's lips lightly, Zhang Shi seemed to be aware of it, but still couldn't resist sleepiness, and said After murmuring a few words, he turned over and fell asleep again, Jia She was full of tenderness, got up lightly, stopped the maid from waking Mrs Zhang, changed his clothes outside, and ate a simple breakfast , and then left the inner courtyard first, after all, there is Jia Jing outside!

Jia Jing has also woken up now, the wine they drank before was also good and not overpowering, so there was no hangover and headache, Jia Jing stretched his body in the morning light and saw Jia Amnesty coming , with a smile on his face: "Enhou is very lucky, here is a beautiful place with beautiful mountains and rivers, and one day, brother can let go of those mundane things, so I will come to be a neighbor with you, Enhou. How do you feel, Enhou?"

Jia She said with a smile: "What cousin Jing said, if cousin Jing likes it, just come here often, why bother to say let go of ordinary things, monks can't be empty of all things, let alone us ordinary people, if we come here, cousin Jing will feel that we are here again. It's vulgar!"

Jia Jing couldn't help laughing: "Enhou, Enhou, I didn't realize it before, you are also a wonderful person!"

Jia She said with a smile, "It's not too late to find out, is it?"

Because it was a holiday, Jia Jing stayed here for another day. Jia She took Jia Jing to see some flowers and plants he cultivated, and gave Jia Jing a few pots of lotus. Reluctantly, he went back to the city. After returning to the city, he saw Jia Daihua. After Jia Daihua asked about Jia Amnesty, Jia Jing shook his head: "Enhou is really a sensible person. Although his son is in court now, although it is not good, Heart, but I also know that although the Xungui family is still quite powerful, it’s just that the world is peaceful now and we are no longer needed. Today, they still have some affection for the Xungui veterans. In the future, I’m afraid they will think that we It's an eyesore! If Marquis En is the Duke, even though he is mediocre, he won't have any serious problems. If it's that one, no matter how you look at it, he is not a smart person. I'm afraid my uncle will regret it in the future!"

Jia Daihua sighed lightly: "What's the use of regretting it in the future, in our mansion, now you have taken another road. Although life is difficult, you can always get through it! Wait until I go , let our family completely hand over the military power! Sigh, marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous man, the West Mansion is ruined by a few women! Jinger, you have to remember that the marriages of our family’s children should not be based on what is rich or noble. Second, don't look at the beauty or ugliness, the key is to look at the upbringing and disposition, if it's the same as that in the West Mansion, if you come back with a troublemaker, no matter how good your life is, it won't last long, understand?"

Jia Jing thought of those things in the Rongguo Mansion before, as well as the current chaos, and he also felt sympathetic, nodded and said: "Father is right, son understands! But, there is also a problem with my son. Those things before, My son just can't stay in the Hanlin Academy anymore, and next year's evaluation will definitely not be very good, what does my father think his son should do next year?"

Jia Daihua thought for a while, but he also had a headache: "The officials of the Sixth Ministry are mostly from the imperial examination. If it is the same as this time, you will be suspended at that time and you will not be asked to touch specific affairs. It won't take long. Your ambition has been sapped, so let’s find a way to release it next year. Even if you are an ordinary county magistrate, you can always take charge of the government and make some achievements to show others. In the future, you will be promoted based on your political achievements. , those people have nothing to say!"

Jia Jing also thinks that this is a good way out, at least there are few obstacles outside, it won't be like in the Imperial Academy, no matter how capable you are, you can't show it at all, you can only keep aggrieved.

Jia Jing has found his way out for the future, but Jia Daishan is worried about Jia Zheng's affairs. Jia Zheng is in his 20s, and he failed to pass the Tongsheng exam three times, even if there is a reason every time. Jia Daishan has nothing to say about the wind and cold. If Jia Zheng has been doing nothing, then what is the difference between the title being inherited by him and by Jia Amnesty?

Jia Daishan finally gritted his teeth. Under Shi Shi's persuasion, he simply gave Jia Zheng the yin student quota of the Imperial College that had never been used, and stuffed him directly into the Imperial College. If he couldn't pass the exam, Jia Daishan could only accept his fate.
