The Marginal People of Jia's Family in the Red Chamber

The days of keeping filial piety are really hard, not to mention not being able to eat meat, and there is no entertainment, so Jia Daixiu thinks it is understandable for those who have children during the filial piety period, especially when they are not close to their parents.But for Jia Daixiu, the days of keeping filial piety are the days of happiness. There is no need to socialize or socialize, and you can stay at home and be a happy otaku.Even if Jia Daishan came to him, he would present an image of a nerd, saying that he wanted to keep his filial piety, and he would stop joking with his elder brother.

Jia Daishan stayed in Jinling for a year, the Rongguo Mansion in the capital was not good and no one was taking care of him, so he went back in a hurry, leaving only a few concubine brothers in Jinling to keep their filial piety.Jia Daixiu was very friendly to his concubine brothers, especially Jia Dairu, and often discussed learning with him. Jia Dairu already had a reputation, so he was very happy to have this opportunity to show his knowledge, and Jia Daixiu's point of view was "a bit interest".

The three years of keeping filial piety passed by in a flash, and when the obedience and filial piety were removed, the three concubine brothers went to Beijing together, and Jia Daixiu was also preparing for the examination of scholar.As early as three years ago when the family was separated, when the patriarchs and elders gathered together, Jia Daixiu said in front of Jia Yuan that he wanted to set up another direct branch and put his household registration in Jinling.Jia Yuan also agreed, and now Jia Daixiu is the master of Jinling Jiufang.

Being a scholar is not a problem for Jia Daixiu who has been studying for 20 years. Jia Daixiu successfully obtained the fame of a scholar.Next year will be Qiu Wei, and the year after next will be Chun Wei, Jia Daixiu lamented that the timing is so coincidental that there is no need to waste time on getting the stepping stones.

Jia Daixiu wrote to Jia Dairu in the capital, encouraging each other to be admitted to Juren next year.In his reply, Jia Dairu was very satisfied with his younger brother's progress, and he was gratified between the lines, and he was very confident that he would be admitted to Juren. He even said that Jia Daishan, who had been demoted to Marquis, would help him.

Jia Daixiu didn't know whether he should remind him of his trust in Jia Daishan or let him go. In the end, he could only say a few euphemistic words in his heart. After all, he was attached to Jia Daishan in the capital, and some things were hard to say.

Jia Dairu did not agree with Jia Daixiu's concerns. Now Rongguo Mansion only has Jia Daishan as a descendant, and he doesn't even have a helper. He also needs the help of outstanding brothers. Now that their two brothers have achieved success in the imperial examination, Jia Daishan must be happy to see him Success!Jia Dairu wrote a letter scolding Jia Daixiu for his narrow-mindedness, and once again reiterated the central idea of ​​not being able to write two Jia characters in one stroke.

Since you are a family, how did you end up in such a mess? !Jia Daixiu shouted in his heart, forget it, since he doesn't believe it, just resign himself to fate.

Those who participated in the Qiu Wei in Jinling were all the upstarts of the dynasty. After all, the Taizu made his fortune here, and there were still many rich and powerful families.Now that the country has just been founded, the whole country is on the rise, and the politics are relatively clear. There is no imperial examination fraud in the law of crossing.

News came from the capital that Jia Dairu had also passed the exam, and his grades were better than Jia Daixiu's. After all, he is a serious scholar who has studied for many years, and Jia Daixiu was also happy for him.

The next year of Qiuwei was Chunwei. Jia Daixiu bid farewell to his cheap master Ye Lin and a few brothers, and went to the capital with money.

Gao originally wanted to go to Beijing to take care of him, but Gao was pregnant again, Jia Xiao was 6 years old, Jia Su was 3 years old, plus a pregnant Gao, a collection of old, weak, sick, disabled and pregnant, Jia Daixiu couldn't be more generous. Don't worry they go together.

What's more, it's already very cold in autumn now, if one accidentally gets sick, it can be fatal.Jia Daixiu persuaded Gao to let her go to the capital in the spring of next year when the weather is warmer.

"It's impossible to say that when you come, it's the Jinshi wife who ordered you to join me." Jia Daixiu joked.

"The children are running all over the place, and the father is still so dishonest." Gao smiled angrily, "If I can get a five-flower imperial order in my life, I will die in peace."

"Bah, bah, bah, it's a great day, what is life and death, you, just wait to be the wife of an official."

"Then I will accept Seventh Brother's love." Gao Shi and Jia Daixiu have been married for many years, and they have already become very close by each other. If you are willing to take the exam, you can also be appointed as an official, and I can wait for our son to earn a royal order for me."

"No, my wife's order, where can I get that brat's turn." Jia Daixiu laughed, "Don't worry, I'll take care of myself."

"That's good." Gao replied.Added a few Jinling specialties to Jia Daixiu's luggage, which were gifts for the Rongguo Mansion in the capital, several concubine brothers, and clan elders. There was also a small box of odds and ends, waiting to be used as a meeting gift when going out to socialize, and a purse More than a dozen, with exquisite embroidery patterns, all clothes matching and decorations have been written, let Hongyu, who has just been promoted to be a nanny, take care of everything by her side, she is really a good wife and mother.

After entering the capital, Jia Daixiu went to Rongguo Mansion to visit first. Jia Daishan was really happy, and took Jia Dairu and him to have a good drink in the West Flower Hall. He told them a lot about exam-taking skills and examiner's preferences, and told them to take the exam well. , When they are selected as Jinshi, they will help them find their way and try to stay in the capital.Jia Dairu and Jia Daixiu were naturally grateful.

The three brothers got drunk and rested in the guest room of Rongguo Mansion. At dawn, Jia Dairu went back after finishing his speech. The house he allocated was in the back street of Ningrong Street. All of them are members of the Jia family.

Jia Daixiu also wanted to leave, but Jia Daishan said unhappily, "I live in the house, where are you going?"

"Brother, my father left me a house in Wenhui Lane in Dongshi." Jia Daixiu explained.

"You haven't been to Beijing for several years, and the house is full of cold pots and stoves, and your younger siblings didn't come with you. No, you should live in the house. The eldest brother can take care of you." Jia Daishan persuaded, he really hoped that both younger brothers would succeed in one fell swoop. Jinshi, so I can help him.

"Brother~" Jia Daixiu said with a smile: "Brother, we are all brothers, and I will not hide it from you. The requirements of civil servants and military officials are different. If you want to go the route of civil servants, you must learn some simplicity. You know Yes, most of the people living in Wenhui Lane are bachelors of the Hanlin Academy, and my younger brother lives there, so it’s convenient for him to ask questions.”

"It's also reasonable, but no one will take care of it..."

"Brother, is it just a display that I brought a room full of boys and maids? They will naturally take care of me." Jia Daixiu interrupted, only now did he realize that the enthusiastic Jia Daishan was too much to bear.

"Otherwise, I'll send you a few concubines..."

"No, no need." Jia Daixiu declined dumbfoundedly. Exams make people addicted to women. Do you sincerely hope for me?Jia Daixiu knew that the world was like this, and thought that someone who knew the cold and hot could look at him and feel at ease. Jia Daishan really had good intentions. "Brother, I've been studying hard all my life, so taking a concubine is nothing, I don't want it anymore."

"It's just a concubine, a little thing, you think it's their blessing, since you don't want it, forget it." Jia Daishan said indifferently.

Jia Daishan couldn't stay, so Jia Daixiu still lived in the house in Wenhui Lane.This house is not considered luxurious, it is better than being expensive. Jia Daixiu has sent people to maintain and clean it for the past two years, and now he can move in directly when he comes.Tidy up the small garden, and then decorate the house. When there are more people in the house, the popularity will come.

Jia Daixiu nestled in the bedroom where the earth dragon was burned to read. The winter in the capital was freezing to death, and Jia Daixiu had no desire to go out at all.That is to say, alone, he eats, reads, writes, and sleeps in the bedroom. If he lives with his wife and children, he must set an example for his son.Except for walking around the house every day when the sun is good at noon, the rest of the time is comfortably huddled in the bedroom.

No matter how reluctant to go out, the Chinese New Year can't be escaped. At the time of New Year's Eve, Jia Daixiu, who had pushed him away several times, finally made Jia Daishan impatient and invited him in person.

"Brother, why are you here?" When Jia Daixiu heard that Jia Daishan was visiting, he hurriedly dressed and washed, and ran out of the bedroom. Jia Daishan was already waiting in the living room.

Looking at Jia Daixiu's slightly wet hair and face, he frowned and said, "Are you just getting up?"

"Brother, it's freezing and snowy here, what am I going to do when I get up?" Jia Daixiu sighed, rubbing his hands and said, there is no fire dragon in the living room, only a charcoal basin, and the door is still open, it's freezing to death.

Seeing his attitude, Jia Daishan knew that he really didn't want to go out, not to avoid himself, and said: "Why is it so cold, I will send you some good leather clothes later, and you can make some more big woolen clothes."

"Brother! In this weather, it's cold even if you put a quilt on your body. I also have big woolen clothes. No matter how thick the clothes are, they will be wet by the heavy snow when I go out. I don't want to go out."

"Okay, okay, tomorrow is New Year's Eve, where can you live alone, you must go, if you don't want to go out, I'll have someone drive the car to the porch, to ensure that you won't get any wind and snow." Jia Dai kindness.

Jia Daixiu couldn't resist, so he had to go, and stayed in Rongguo Mansion for fifteen years before returning to Wenhui Lane.When saying goodbye and going out, Jia Daixiu inadvertently looked back at Rongguo Mansion, and found that it still had the signboard of Guogong Mansion. Jia Daixiu was puzzled. Now that Jia Daishan is a Marquis, why does he still have the signboard of Duke Mansion? He should be suggested to change it like Tongrenwen. Plaque?

No, in the Dream of the Red Chamber, Jia's mother claimed to be the Duke's wife, that is to say, Jia Daishan's successor was the Duke!What is the butterfly effect?Jia Daixiu can assure you that after he came, he didn't participate in anything. How can there be such a powerful butterfly? That is to say, Jia Daishan has other opportunities to be promoted from Marquis to Duke.

Jia Daixiu thought wildly all the way, was drenched by Dongxue, and fell ill for several days.

After finally waiting for February, Jia Daixiu wore more than a dozen layers of single clothes, went to the number room, came out exhausted physically and mentally, was helped by the housekeeper to the carriage and fell asleep, washed up in a daze, fell on the bed, and fell asleep. Got a Tongtai.

After waking up, it was already the next morning, and the list hadn't been released yet, but a message from the boy stunned him: "Master Confucianism did not enter the last game."

"What's the matter? But Brother Six isn't healthy, why didn't he come in?" Jia Daixiu kept asking.

"The Sixth Confucian Master couldn't bear it when he came out for the second round, and he couldn't even get up on the fifteenth day. The Sixth Wife couldn't persuade him, but the Sixth Master insisted on going, but he passed out after getting out of bed. If Mrs. Six can't do it, she has hired an imperial physician."

"I'll go and have a look, get ready for the car... Forget it, bring the master's horse."
