old lady in red

Jia Zheng's smug smile was choked: "Ah, no, no..."

Jia Zheng used to be very good at showing off cute things.

However, in front of so many people, his son and daughter are all present.

Can he play tricks like a little licking dog?

No matter what, he is also a dignified master.

Seeing that her father was at a loss, Yuan Chun grinned awkwardly and hurried forward to make a rescue.

She took Shi Mei's arm and shook it coquettishly: "Grandmother is not old. Grandmother, you are smart, beautiful, and young. You look like sisters to aunt."

Then, Yuan Chun looked at Jia Min like a little fox and asked with a smile, "Auntie, tell me, is that what Yuan Er said?"

Jia Cong is really Yuan Chun's die-hard brother, and at this moment he also squeezed into Shi Mei's side, nodding like pecking rice: "Yes, yes, yes, grandmother is the smartest, the most beautiful, and cooks the best food, Cong'er likes grandmother the most! "

Shi Mei pinched Jia Cong's pink cheeks: "You know what is beautiful, a little thing that echoes what everyone says."

Jia Cong said unluckily: "Of course the grandson knows, the beauty is the grandmother, the mother, and the fourth aunt.

Grandma, do you think Cong'er is right? "

Shi Mei was very happy: "It's also a little fox!"

Jia Min smiled and said: "Yes, when I went back to Zhoujia Village, the villagers secretly asked you which aunt you are from the Rong Mansion, and they all thought you were the aunt of Rong Mansion Guining Shengqin!"

Jia Jing, Jia pardoned Jia Zheng, and these men never paid attention to these things.After all, there is no reason for a nephew and son to stare at their mother and aunt.

At this moment, when Jia Min Yuanchun mentioned it, they thought it was true.

Shi Mei really looks much younger than her peers right now.

If no one introduces her, saying she is the eldest sister of Zhang's Jia Min, they will believe her.

Knowing that people must not be old.

Shi Mei was still very happy.

"Seeing that my grandson is so smart, grandma won't be angry with those idiots anymore. Let's go to Rongxi Hall to receive the decree."

Shi Mei led Yang's Zhang's Jia Min away.

Jia Amnesty is no longer jealous of his brothers, but he is still very happy to watch Jia Zheng suffer.

Jia Amnesty's performance was like that of an elder brother: "Second brother, don't worry, mother is teasing you."

In fact, Jia Amnesty knew that his mother was annoyed by Jia Zheng, she was dreaming all day long, she didn't care about housework and debts, and just pursued his dream of leaving a name in history.

However, Jia Amnesty no longer has the hostility of the past, and he doesn't think it's unfair that Jia Zheng doesn't help repay the debt.

Mother was right, since she enjoyed the glory and wealth of Rong Mansion, she should shoulder the honor and disgrace of Rong Mansion's rise and fall.

He inherited his father's title, and of course he had to pay his father's debts.

It should only be returned to the imperial court with the [-] meritorious fields.

For him, it was nothing more than tightening his trousers, and he could no longer play with antiques within ten years.

There is no mother who spends all her time making money while her son spends his life enjoying himself.

Shi Mei and others received the order in Rongxi Hall.

Dai Quan, the eunuch who passed on the decree, first said that he was in charge of the sky, and the emperor said, and then praised Zhang's knowledge, reason, diligence and obedience.

Confer the title of Mrs. Yipinhou.

Under the leadership of Shi Mei and Jia She, the whole family loves to kowtow to express gratitude.

Mrs. Zhang was ordered by Yuzhu.

Shi Mei said with a smile: "Your Majesty has worked hard, knowing that you are busy, so prepare some thin wine, please have a drink before leaving."

Internal officials are not allowed to communicate with ministers in private.The eunuch should not delay too long.So, drinking is just an excuse.

The purpose is to give some private money to the chief eunuch.

But Dai Quan smiled: "Today, the Rong Mansion is blessed with three blessings. This cup of wedding wine is settled for this old slave, but please don't remove the incense table, the old lady. There is still an imperial decree here. Please order the old lady Shi Kneel down and listen to the announcement."

Shi Mei was stunned, was this an imperial decree just for her?

Seeing that Shi Mei was in a daze, Jia She hurriedly helped Shi Mei.

Dai Quan read: "Following heaven's fortune, the emperor ordered that the late Mrs. Shi, Mrs. Rongguo, cared about the people of Li and made contributions to the country. In order to commend her achievements, a Panlong jade pendant was specially given. Those who hold this jade can see that the official is not worthy." Bye, I do not kneel when I see you, I respect you, thank you!"

Shi Mei wept with joy when she heard the words, and she kowtowed reverently: "My wife leads the decree, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

This reward is really too beautiful for Shi Mei, and she is happier than rewarding her with thousands of dollars.

Shi Mei was really afraid that she would have to kneel on her knees when entering the palace.

Although Burning Shimei would not be so stupid as to really not kneel down to the emperor.

However, from now on, she can only kneel down to the emperor, and at most to kneel down to the queen.

For the rest of the concubines and princes, she can straighten up and speak.

Dai Quan is very sophisticated.

He personally opened the golden auspicious cloud brocade box containing the Panlong Jade Pendant, inspected the Panlong Jade Pendant in public, and handed it to Shi Mei without any injuries.

Shi Mei held the panlong pendant, but her heart was not a flower.

Dai Quan was invited to have tea again, and the gold ingots he received became eight.

Shi Mei said: "The money is for the children to have a glass of wine."

Dai Quan cupped his hands in thanks.

When Jia She helped him, he stuffed a pouch containing a pocket bergamot into Dai Quan's sleeve pocket.

Dai Quan pressed the cuff and was very satisfied.

Giving playthings is a sign of respect for him.

Then, Dai Quan said: "The lady of the country will thank the Qianmu Huangzhuang in exchange for the two hundred and five rice fields in the back mountain of Rongfu, and the remaining veins of Cuiwei Mountain. Your Majesty has approved. I have ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to sort out the rice fields and mountains. Later, my wife will enter Palace, you can go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to complete the relevant procedures."

This is a timely reminder.

In this way, the Rong Mansion will prepare a generous gift in advance.

At that time, we can follow Rongfu's wishes by drawing boundaries and erecting boundary markers.

The left side is nothing but barren mountains and wild mountains, a thing without an owner.

Then, Shi Meijia pardoned the three of Zhang's family and entered the palace in a sedan chair to express their gratitude.

First, I went to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to thank you.

Although Emperor Jiahe does not have a Zen seat, he spends most of his time in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Shi Mei bowed three times and kowtowed nine times following Jia Amnesty.

Then a voice that was not old said very calmly: "Pingshen!"

Shi Mei got up and thanked them for quitting.

During the whole process, Shi Mei didn't dare to raise her head, but out of the corner of her eye, she saw a resplendent and resplendent figure with a gray beard!

The reason why you can see the beard is because the beard is very eye-catching on the golden dragon robe.

Then, Shi Mei went to Yikun Palace.

Yukun Palace is the palace of the successor.

Shi Mei paid homage to the queen, kowtowed to thank her, and then mentioned the kindness of the queen three years ago, and thanked her again.

Contrary to Shi Mei's expectations, the empress is not as old and decrepit as imagined.

On the contrary, the queen is in good spirits and has a ruddy complexion.It doesn't look like the pattern of a bereaved dog that people imagine.

The queen gave people a very warm feeling, without any airs.

When Shi Mei mentioned three years ago, the queen didn't answer. Obviously, she didn't want to bring up the past three years ago.

The queen praised Shimei for planting sweet potatoes, and asked about some things about planting sweet potatoes.

Shi Mei told the queen how to breed and the properties of sweet potatoes.

The queen said: "The sweet potato is far away in Fujian, but it was discovered by the Duke's wife and successfully cultivated. This is a blessing brought by fate, and others cannot envy it."

Shi Mei then talked about how she took her children and grandchildren to the farm and thinned out the seedlings and planted them herself.

The Queen said: "I have also watched the Jitian Ceremony, but I never thought that Madam would plant sweet potatoes herself."

Seeing the queen mentioning sweet potatoes repeatedly, Mrs. Zhang thought she wanted to know the ins and outs of sweet potato cultivation, so she unconsciously mentioned her father.

The queen suddenly kept silent and sipped her tea with her head down, no one looked at her.

Mrs. Zhang seemed to be strangled by someone, and the scene was very embarrassing.

Shi Mei knew that right now, there were remnants of the Eldest Princess Ronghui and Princess Ronghui making trouble.

This time, many families like Rongfu were calculated, and many were sent to Mobei and Lingnan.

And the king of Yizhong County came out to jump.

The queen seems to be very shy about personnel matters related to the abolished prince.

Shi Mei was also very tactful, and before the queen brought tea to see off the guests, she got up and said goodbye.

After leaving the Yikun Palace, Mrs. Zhang said quietly: "At first, I saw that the Empress looked good and warm, and I thought she was a very easy-going person, but she made people feel uneasy with her half-baked words. "

However, Shi Mei understood the queen very well: "She just wants to spend the rest of her life in peace on her own one-acre land."

When the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were leaving the palace, they met the nanny beside Concubine Zhen, but it was Concubine Zhen who invited Shi Mei to Yongshou Palace.

Yongshou Palace is the bedroom of Concubine Zhen, the closest palace to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Now the empress is in charge of the phoenix seal, and Concubine Zhen is in charge of the harem.

The empress used to live in secluded places, and most of the internal affairs of the palace were decided by Concubine Zhen.

Zhen Guifei is actually exercising the duties of a queen.

The vice queen summoned her, but Shi Mei couldn't and dared not refuse.

Shi Mei told Hu Po to wait at Qianqing Gate, while the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went to Yongshou Palace.

Concubine Zhen is now in full swing, and the head of the Zhen family has become the president of Tirenyuan, in charge of half of the country in the south of the Yangtze River.

The Zhen family is rich and powerful.

Apart from having no son, Concubine Zhen really has nothing to worry about.

Jia Daishan, the pillar of the Rong Mansion, was succeeded by Jia Amnesty, but failed.

The Rong Mansion and the Zhen Family, one ascended and one descended, the priority has been reversed.

Rong Fu's daughter still died in Zhen's house.

Although Concubine Zhen lived in the Rong Mansion for a while when she entered the palace, she was also taken care of by Jia Daishan after she entered the palace.

It's just a little grace, not worth mentioning.

In view of the delicate relationship between the two governments.

Concubine Zhen does not need to go to Rongfu.

However, Concubine Zhen is the one who meets the wind and turns the rudder most.

In the past, His Majesty stayed away from Rong Mansion, and if Jia Daishan wasn't given a posthumous title, she just pretended not to recognize Rong Mansion.

His Majesty is still caring about the old minister, and gave him a Panlong Pei from Rongfu.Concubine Zhen saw the value of the Rongfu, perhaps it will still be useful in the future.

Furthermore, her nephew is optimistic about Ningguo Mansion and thinks that Jia Jing is more promising than Jia She.

Unexpectedly, the market in Rongfu is now bullish.

Concubine Zhen felt that it would be more beneficial to conquer the Rong Mansion.

The third girl who died in Rongfu is a problem.

Fortunately, it is not a direct descendant, there is still room for change

Concubine Zhen had the idea of ​​riding a donkey to buy a horse, so she summoned Shi Mei.

Shi Mei has the right not to kneel, but she still pretends to kneel.

Concubine Zhen dared to disobey the imperial decree and personally support her.

Shi Mei took advantage of the situation and wished her well.

Concubine Zhen firstly congratulated the successors of the Rong Mansion, and recalled how close the two families were, and hoped to move around more in the future.

Shi Mei didn't know her well, and Mrs. Shi didn't like her either.

Shi Mei really had nothing to say, so she could only respectfully and perfunctory when Concubine Zhen praised her: "Your Majesty praised you."

"The empress is ridiculous!"

When Concubine Zhen mentioned the children in the mansion, Shi Mei said a few more words.Talk about Jia Zhu and Jia Lian's endorsement, say Yuan Chun is smart, and Jia Cong is playing tricks.

Concubine Zhen showed envy in her eyes: "Madam is really blessed. If my palace has such four children, I will have no regrets in life."

Shi Mei couldn't continue talking with her anymore.

Concubine Zhen Gui is nearly forty years old and has no son, so it is destined that there will be no children making trouble in Yongshou Palace.

No matter what Shi Mei said, it was not appropriate.

There was no other way, so Shi Mei had no choice but to talk about the topic that all women like to hear: "I haven't seen you for so many years, my lady, you are still so young, and your skin can be broken by blows, which is enviable. I don't know what beauty formula you use ?”

Concubine Zhen Gui really liked to hear it, and babbled a lot of prescriptions.

When Shi Mei was at a loss for words, a little palace maid reported: "My Majesty, Your Majesty has left the imperial study."

Shi Mei seized the time to say goodbye, and with Concubine Zhen's permission, she dragged Mrs. Zhang to run for her life, without touching the ground, and left the Yongshou Palace in a gust of wind.

The Hall of Mental Cultivation is very close to Yongshou Palace, if you don't hurry up, you will be in trouble if you meet the emperor.

The point is, Shi Mei doesn't know what people like to hear.

Emperor Jiahe walked over leisurely in his Luanjia.Just in time to see Shimei's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law disappearing like a gust of wind.

Emperor Jiahe thought to himself, who is the family member of this family, and she is about to catch up with Jin Yiwei for running exercises.

Emperor Jiahe asked leisurely: "Whose family members will the imperial concubine summon today?"

Dai Quan said: "It's Mrs. Shi from the Rongguo Mansion and her eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Rongguohou."

Emperor Jiahe raised his eyebrows: "Old Mrs. Shi? Why do I look like a little daughter-in-law?"

Dai Quan felt embarrassed: "Perhaps the imperial concubine not only summoned the female relatives of the Rong Mansion today."

Rong Guogong's wife is indeed young.However, she has become a grandmother, so she is no longer a little daughter-in-law.

Furthermore, it's not good for an emperor to talk about the widow with the chief eunuch!

Emperor Jiahe nodded upon hearing this.

The daughter-in-law of Jia Daishan in Rongguo Mansion, Emperor Jiahe really has some memories.

Back then, it was he who caused the Shi family's girl to Jia Daishan because of his mischief, so that both Rongning and Ningfu had to marry the Shi family's girl.

His unintentional move caused the Jia family to lose a chance to get married, and he was proud of it for a long time.

The girl from the Shi family was favored by the queen mother because she was born rich and handsome, but he liked those girls with slender hands and willow waists at that time.

That's why he played a trick and blamed Jia Daishan.

Unexpectedly, the fat girl at the beginning became a fine girl, and she made great achievements in a short time.

This shows that his mother has a unique vision.

Jia Daishan died, she was a widow, she gritted her teeth and refused the temptation in front of her, took her son back to her hometown, and forcibly killed those two dude sons.

Based on Mrs. Shi's heart for the imperial court, and because this woman is not easy, at this moment of panic, he thought of Jia Daishan on a whim, and suddenly felt guilty, so he gave the Panlong Jade Pendant.

Emperor Jiahe suddenly had a whim, if he had not favored thin waists and accepted this fat girl, what would have happened?

Emperor Jiahe unconsciously waved his hands, but unfortunately there is no such thing as a life in this world.

Emperor Jiahe was also too idle, when he entered the Yongshou Palace, he was still thinking about the two running figures he saw just now.

"I heard that Concubine Ai has guests today, why don't you see anyone?"
