old lady in red

The words have come to this point, and the meaning is self-evident.

Shi Mei changed the subject: "Look at me, how did Mrs. Zhang get into these off-topic topics, nephew and daughter-in-law, your younger siblings will be entrusted to you, and auntie will thank you slowly in the future!"

Yang's Jia Jing already understood, and left after gossiping for a while.

Shi Mei felt that she had done her duty.

If the Ning Mansion is still on the old path, a reclusive recluse, a recluse who gathers together, don't blame her for cutting off her tail to survive.

Before Shi Mei leaves Beijing, there is one more important thing to do, and that is to identify a stable wife for Mrs. Zhang.

Shi Mei gave Zhang full freedom in this matter: Let Zhang provide reliable candidates, and Shi Mei will check who will be hired in the end.

Shi Mei's checking is not a matter of lip service.

When Zhang's candidate was proposed, Shi Mei immediately ordered Dai Liang, the leader of the scout left by Jia Daishan, to check the person's origin and background before deciding whether to appoint him.

In order to prevent accidents, after discussing with Mrs. Zhang, Shi Mei hired a total of three stable women to try to be foolproof.

In addition, Jia's mother ordered Jia She to take Jia Daishan's famous assassin, and prepared generous gifts to go to Wang Taiyi's house to ask for entrustment. Before Zhang's return home, she hoped that Wang Taiyi would take advantage of the rest time to ask for Zhang's safety once a month. pulse.

Doctor Wang's ancestor was a famous doctor in Suzhou. He and his grandfather Jia Yuan met in front of the two armies. They saved each other's lives and had a close friendship.

In recent years, because His Majesty has vigorously cracked down on clique formation and selfishness, the exchanges between the two governments have decreased.However, the friendship between the world is still there.

Jia Amnesty explained the purpose of his visit: the whole family returned home to observe filial piety, the daughter-in-law is pregnant and should not travel long distances, and she wants to stay in the capital to wait for delivery.

Doctor Wang was so open-minded and kind to his daughter-in-law that he was very moved, and accepted Jia Amnesty's gift without hesitation.

While Shi Mei was in a hurry to arrange housework, the mother and son of the Lin family came to visit Jia Daishan half a month after his seven-seventh term.

Lin's mother lost her husband in middle age, and her health has not been very good.

Therefore, when the funeral was held in the Rong Mansion, she just went to the mansion to express her condolences on the night of Jia Daishan's funeral, and went back after dark.

After the seven-seven period, only Lin Ruhai himself came.

Shi Mei can understand this matter, if she is sick, she can't force her to be otherwise!

This time, Mother Lin came to visit suddenly, Shi Mei was very surprised.

It's really not the time to gossip about Rongfu's funeral.

Moreover, Mother Lin has never been very happy about marrying Xun Guirong Mansion.

Before the Lin family developed, it was a real family of farming and studying. The family has a vast area of ​​fertile land, and the family's descendants have studied sage books for generations.

The Marquis of Jintian, the ancestor of the Lin family, was also obtained by donating these acres of land to support Emperor Gao.

The Lin family is a scholarly family, and heirs have been cultivated and studied.

The Jia Mansion is just wearing the cloak of farming and studying heirlooms, but it is actually an upstart with the achievements of the dragon.

According to the order of moral inheritance, family first, farming and reading second, scholarly fragrance next, and wealth last.

Mrs. Lin was born in a third-class scholarly family, and married into a second-class farming and studying family.

Therefore, holding on to her status, she looked down on Rongfu, a nouveau riche who was only rich for three generations.

In this regard, Shi Meijia amnesty and Jiazheng's mother and son knew it well.

Mrs. Zhang was also very surprised by the visit of Lin's mother, whose eyes were above the top.

Putting this matter aside in the past, she was afraid of making too many mistakes, so she would definitely keep her mouth shut.

Now Shi Mei loves her very much, no worse than what her mother did.

Jia Min is as close as a sister to her, so she really can't stay out of it.

Mrs. Zhang specially reminded Shi Mei: "Mother-in-law, when the Lin family and younger sister got engaged, Mrs. Lin sent gold and jade heads. As a side branch of the Zhang family, my family knows the Lin family very well.

The betrothed objects that the Lin family has always betrothed to their daughter-in-law are the family heirlooms of the Lin family, a pair of Hetian jade Ruyi, and a pair of white marble flounder.Then there is the gold and jade face, making up the auspicious number of eight boxes. "

Shi Mei looked thoughtfully at Mrs. Zhang.

Jia Min got engaged in March last year, and Mrs. Zhang's words were a full year late.

It seems that if mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are not harmonious, one party cannot be blamed.

Mrs. Zhang's face turned red when Shi Mei saw it: "Mother-in-law, please punish me. Back then, my daughter-in-law..."

Shi Mei nodded: "Well, back then your father-in-law was happy and my mother-in-law didn't say anything. It was reasonable for you not to dare to pour cold water on me. Now that you are willing to mention your sister, it shows that you really treat us as a family. I am very happy, how can I be punished?"

At the beginning of the engagement, Lin's father had passed away, and Lin's mother had prepared the wedding ceremony.

Ruhai is the only son, and Lin's mother doesn't need to hire family heirlooms, but she doesn't treat Jia Min as her clan wife.

As the daughter-in-law of the Lin family, Jia Min doesn't have the family heirloom of the Lin family. How can she gain a foothold in the Lin family?

His Majesty has already issued a marriage decree.

Mrs. Lin practiced like this in private, which is really a bit low.

Jia's mother was polite to Lin's mother at the beginning, it was for Jia Min's sake.

Respect is mutual!

Since you have bad intentions, why should I be polite!

Shi Mei is a widow, so it's normal to have a mournful face.

Lin Ruhai helped his mother into the main hall of Tieshan Temple, and saw Shi Mei wearing a linen piece, leading her son, wife, and grandson in the same dress, welcoming them together.

This is the etiquette of the filial family.

For a while, the mother and son offered incense and condolences like a sea.

Ruhai was entertained by Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng, and spoke in the front hall.

Mother Lin was entertained by Shimei, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Farewell like the sea, looking at the room full of plains, the green smoke curling up from the mourning hall, secretly tugging at the hem of my mother's clothes.Remind mother to be cautious in words and deeds, today's environment is really not suitable for saying that.

Mrs. Lin turned her head and gave Ru Hai a fierce look, and followed Shi Mei to the back hall.

Shi Mei's face was solemn, she only regarded Lin Mu as an ordinary person.

"Thank you Madam for coming to pay homage in person, for taking the trouble."

In Shimei's words, the word "family" was never mentioned again.

She is the woman.

A family is asking for a daughter!

There has always been only bowing your head to marry a wife, there has never been a reason to bow your head to marry a daughter!

Being crushed to the dust by her husband's family before marriage, life is not over.

Shi Mei sat silently, not asking about Lin's mother's condition, nor Ru Hai, it didn't look like her in-laws were meeting each other.

Mother Lin has been observing Mother Jia secretly, feeling a little uneasy.

In the end, Mother Lin's sense of superiority prevailed.

The Lin family is as rich as the enemy, and his son Xinke Tanhua is a disciple of the emperor.

As for Jia's mansion, the only pillar has collapsed, leaving two rich men and a group of women who only know about extravagance and pleasure.

The title is also coming to an end.

In Lin's mother's heart, Jia's mansion is just useless.

Lin's mother felt that Jia Min's marriage to the Lin family and her son was a blessing in eight lifetimes.

Her son is full of poems and books, and has a good-looking talent, even a princess is worthy of him.

What is an honorable man who is not dilapidated?

The hateful thing is that Jia Daishan asked His Majesty to give him a marriage, otherwise she would not have agreed to this marriage!

Thinking about it this way, Lin's mother regained her confidence after being reminded by Ru Hai.

She first pulled out Sujuan from her cuffs and wiped the corners of her eyes, then said in a deep voice: "The dead cannot be brought back to life, the living must live a good life, the in-laws and mothers are sad, just take care of yourself."

Shi Mei bowed her body to thank her: "Thank you in-laws and mother for your concern!"

Shi Mei seemed to realize that there was no tea for Mother Lin at this moment: "What about you, why haven't you served tea yet?"

After Shi Mei's words fell to the ground, Hu Po came in with a tray.

The weather is a little hot now, and Mother Lin is indeed a little thirsty.

She picked up the teacup to moisten her throat, but it was scalding hot tea, so she had to put it down.I was suddenly annoyed in my heart, and felt that the servants of the Rong Mansion were really rude, and dared to bring out such tea.

But he suppressed his anger and talked about his reason for coming: "Well, speaking of it, our two families are also suffering from the same disease. My husband passed away before he was forty. I was only thirty-six at that time. That year, Haier also I'm only thirteen. My mother, you don't know how I survived these years. Those relatives and clansmen were like locusts. It's really hard to describe.

Simply because now that Hai'er is successful and famous, I have no other hopes for the rest of my life. I just hope that Hai'er will marry a wife earlier, spread out his branches and give birth to a son and a half daughter, so as to inherit my Lin family's ancestral hall.As for me, I am so relaxed and relaxed, enjoying the blessings of my children and grandchildren for a few days! "

Hearing these words, Shi Mei could probably guess the reason for Lin's mother's visit.

Either they want to be filial piety and get married.

Or they want to give their son a concubine and have children.

Those whose regular wives do not enter the door and give birth to concubine sons are generally unruly merchants.

If such a scandal happened to the scholarly family, not to mention the ruin of his future, it could be regarded as a lifelong handle, and he would be criticized by others.

Shi Mei secretly speculates: Ru Hai is so shrewd, won't acquiesce to his mother doing such a stupid thing?

Do you want to be filial and get married?

This can't be done!

Jia Min is only fifteen this year. In modern times, he is a junior high school student. Can she have children?

Moreover, when married during the filial piety period, it is usually the man who lost his mother and no one took care of him, so he married his daughter-in-law to head the house.

However, it is okay to marry a daughter-in-law, but it takes three years to consummate the house.

That is to say, Shi Mei agrees to Jia Min's marriage, and it is impossible to have children within three years.

Shi Mei was immediately annoyed. Although Mother Lin's health was not good, she was not too incapable of being a director.

The Lin family was really anxious to have a baby, how could they wait until they were 23 and not get married?

If you married a wife and had children earlier, Jia Daishan would not rob others of their wives.

Shi Mei remained calm: "What the mother-in-law said is that the family who raises children and raises women is not looking forward to that. A full house of children and grandchildren is a life that is called fulfillment."

What she said was ambiguous, and Mother Lin was not sure if Mother Jia understood her hint, so she thought about it and said it clearly.

Ruhai is a conscientious person, he is afraid that his mother will offend people with her harsh words, so Tete told his nanny to pay attention to his mother's behavior.

Once the mother speaks rudely, let her send a letter to herself immediately.

The nanny was waiting at the door, listening to the madam with her ears cocked, and when she heard the madam talking about the son, she knew something wrong, so she was busy sending a letter to the son who was waiting in the aisle: "Go and tell the uncle, the wife said that she will give the young master Marry a wife and have children."

His son was also taken aback when he heard the words: Grandpa Tian, ​​the Jia family is in the filial piety period, and the young mistress has three years of filial piety, but the wife said at this time that she is having a child, isn't it poking someone's lung tube?

Rongguo Mansion is not as good as before, but it is still a meritorious family?

Tianshe's family doesn't have to bully people like this!

He ran to the front hall and told Ruhai.
