[Red Mansion] Marrying a wife like jade

Jia Lian listened to Lin Ruhai asking him to talk about the matter, so he talked about why Jia She gave her mother's dowry list to herself, how she asked her to go to her uncle to find a solution, and why Wang Xifeng felt that it was inappropriate for her to go to her uncle's house rashly, etc. Without caring about embarrassment, I said it all.As he spoke, he knelt down for Lin Ruhai and asked his uncle for help.

"Your daughter-in-law is quite knowledgeable." Lin Ruhai told Jia Lian to get up, and he couldn't help but praise Jia Lian, and even scolded Jia Amnesty in his heart.Think about it and say to Steward Lin: "Take my post to Zhang Shaoqing's house in Taipu Temple, and say that I will go to worship tomorrow."

As soon as Steward Lin agreed, Lin Quan had already announced outside: "Young master is here." Shen Yue came in with a bitter face: "Sir, I got into trouble."

If it hadn't been for the years of cultivating qi, Lin Ruhai would have scolded people directly, and asked angrily, "What did you do again? No, but something went wrong in the palace? Tell me quickly." As he spoke, his complexion suddenly changed. That's it - if Shen Yue caused trouble in the palace, there would be no way to deal with it.

Even Steward Lin didn't dare to leave for a while, because even the Shen family couldn't cover it if he wanted to hear what kind of trouble this very determined young master had caused.If it's useful to me, who cares about the second master Lian, naturally the young master's business comes first.

Shen Yue cried to Lin Ruhai: "Because the empress orchid concubine said that I painted well today, the emperor and the sage must have rewarded me with grades, and my name was hung in the Office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Sir, I really didn't ask for it myself. I also painted it face to face. I resigned a few times, and said that my husband would not allow me to advance, but neither the Supreme Emperor nor the sage agreed. It was I who showed my strength, and I begged my husband to punish me."

Jia Lian's eyes were straightened when he heard this. Is this a disaster?I am willing to make a few more such disasters, not to mention rewarding the seventh rank, even if I am rewarding the first rank, I am willing to continue!

Looking up, she found that Lin Ruhai's face was sinking like water: "What else?"

Seeing that he couldn't be fooled, Shen Yue had no choice but to say: "After I resigned face to face, the sage said that he would break up with my husband face to face. He would let me continue to study in the Imperial College and let me be born in the imperial examination. The Supreme Emperor also agreed."

Lin Ruhai slapped the table angrily: "Do you know that now that the Supreme Emperor and the sage reward you for your rank, even if you get into the second class in the imperial examination in the future, some people will say that you are a lucky person!"

Shen Yue really wanted to cry at this time, Xueshi Shen had told him just now that it was very powerful: "Sir, otherwise I will stay in the manufacturing office for the rest of my life, this one..." It's too difficult.

"Take the exam, if you dare not take the exam, your leg will be discounted!" Lin Ruhai said categorically: "I was able to win the first class back then, but my husband was just a juren. Your husband and I came from Tanhua, and you are studying in the Imperial College. Ph.D. They are all well-learned people, why can't you enter the first class?" If you can't pass the exam, try!

Jia Lian, who is not even a scholar, shivered directly, thinking that Wang Ziteng was too polite to him on weekdays.Seeing that Shen Yue was also trembling like himself: "Tomorrow, I will go and tell the grandfather that I want to go back to the south." Then he smiled and asked Lin Ruhai: "Sir, can I please give Yu'er a seal?"

Lin Ruhai stopped taking pictures of the table, and said to Butler Lin: "Go and do your business. No, please bring me the family law first."

Shen Yue hurriedly pulled Steward Lin to ask him what he was going to do, but Steward Lin said with a smile, but Shen Yue yelled again: "I came here to send a message to my husband, and the old lady said that she would congratulate me tomorrow and set up a house Mr. Banquet is also in the past, so I can see others when I have time."

Lin Ruhai also forgot about the family law, looked at Jia Lian and said, "It's a big deal for him, why not change it in the future."

Jia Lian had long felt that Lin Ruhai treated him very differently from Shen Yue, so he also bowed down at this time, asking Lin Ruhai to help him, and Lin Ruhai was in a dilemma for a while.

When Shen Yue heard Jia Lian's request, he burst out laughing, and smiled at Lin Ruhai: "What's so difficult about it? Mr. Lian invited Second Master Lian's uncle to drink tea at lunch tomorrow, and asked Second Master Lian to wait there for him." Yes. It also saves my husband from rashly bringing Er Ye Lian to the door, and even Mr. Lian will be embarrassed if he doesn't see him."

Lin Ruhai thought it was an idea and looked at Jia Lian.What can Jia Lian do?Only when he nodded in agreement and made an appointment, did he congratulate Shen Yue and return home.

After he left, Lin Ruhai waved away the idlers, and listened to Shen Yue's detailed talk about the appointment of the Empress Dowager today: "It will only take half a month, sir, why not write a letter to ask your wife to come to Beijing earlier, Even if we can’t catch up with the first batch of congratulations, it would be good to show our face in front of the Queen Mother earlier.”

Lin Ruhai listened and nodded: "In this way, you will have face in front of the saint and the queen mother. You should be more cautious when you are only in the palace."

Shen Yue also knew that although the current harem is relatively peaceful, there will definitely be battles between dragons and tigers in the future.Fortunately, his age is there, and so is his official position.Well, Shen Yue has to admit that adding his official position and age together is quite eye-catching.In a few years, maybe it will be even more eye-catching.

But Shen Yue finally had an excuse to ask Lin Ruhai to write a letter to urge Jia Min and Daiyu to come to Beijing as soon as possible, but Daiyu here in Yangzhou was not very happy: in previous years, her father and elder brother would prepare for her birthday early, but this year only I have three mothers, and I feel indescribably deserted from the bottom of my heart.

Although Brother Ai had someone give him a birthday present two days ago, but this birthday is different from previous years.Daiyu knew that her mother was also busy tidying up things and preparing for the family to go to Beijing, so she couldn't bear to burden her, so she could only complain to Nanny Gu: "I always feel that this year is warmer than usual, even the flowers are blooming." It's less."

Could Nanny Gu know what she was thinking?Zuijie smiled and persuaded: "Tomorrow grandma will bring brother Xun and brother Wen over to celebrate the girl's birthday together. Yesterday, it wasn't from Jingli that they brought something here again. I heard that it was the old lady and the wife who rewarded her." , this year there are more people thinking about girls than in previous years."

Hearing Nanny Gu mentioning the old lady, Daiyu couldn't help but ask the old lady and his wife's preferences: "I don't know if brother Ai will go back to Beijing alone, will anyone take care of him, and whether he likes the old lady."

Mother Gu showed Daiyu the clothes she was going to wear tomorrow and said: "The old lady and the wife are kind people, why don't they take care of the young master? If the young master doesn't please the old lady, he can't send things to Yangzhou."

Daiyu thinks it makes sense: "Last time brother Ai sent a letter saying that the old lady likes the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River. Tomorrow, I will let people go to the street to buy some. The wife saw the things in Beijing that time, and her illness recovered faster. If the old lady saw it You can be happy with the stuff here."

"The old lady is very happy with the girl's filial piety. There is another case, the girl still has to do something for the old lady and the wife." Gu Nuo got Jia Min's order and took the opportunity to persuade: "Don't worry about it." Good or bad, you can tell that the girl is sincere."

With the latter sentence, it is difficult for Daiyu to say that every time Brother Ai writes, he always reminds him not to do needlework—Shen Yue thinks that letting six or seven-year-old children do needlework is hiring child labor—and asked what should I do? What to do for the old ladies and wives, I want to get ready earlier.

On the second day, Mr. Fang, Brother Xun and Brother Wen came here early, and because Lin Ruhai was promoted to the middle of the capital, there were also several families who were originally close friends who gave gifts to come and walk around. .

Brother Xun brought two pots of hibiscus in full bloom as Daiyu's birthday gift: "Congratulations to sister Fangchen." Brother Wen also followed suit: "Fangchen."

Daiyu touched Brother Wen's chubby face: "What is Fangchen?"

Brother Wen was taken aback by the question, looked at Fang Shi hesitantly and said, "Is it delicious?"

Everyone burst into laughter, making the child feel a little embarrassed, and hid behind Brother Xun, who then scolded him: "Man, why are you so timid? Stand still, don't you stand up?" a stand."

Jia Min saw that the little man was talking like an adult, and said to Fang: "This temper is stronger than that of Brother Ai. At that time, Brother Ai was not much older than him, and he was the most patient with brothers."

Brother Kuan heard his mother and sister mention Brother Ai every day, and asked him in puzzlement: "Why don't you see brother coming back? I almost forgot what brother looks like."

Brother Xun looked disgusted: "How can you forget? You run to your house every day, eat your food, and don't let your sister play with you." Just this sentence made Shen Yue so troublesome. My brother-in-law, Shen Yue didn't know, if he knew that his brother was cheating him so much, he might run back to Yangzhou to inquire about him.

When Brother Wen heard that they mentioned Big Brother, he became proud, picked up his small purse and dug it, asked Brother to approve it, took out a piece of paper from it, and handed it to Brother Wen: "Stupid, every day I can’t even take it out.”

Brother Wen was not annoyed, and unfolded the small piece of paper folded in half to Brother Kuan: "Brother." On it was a small self-portrait drawn by Shen Yue, and the paper could only be the size of a palm, otherwise it wouldn't be too big. Brother Ming put it in his purse.

Jia Min looked at it and asked Fang with a smile: "Why do you still let him carry it with you?"

Mrs. Fang pointed to Brother Xun: "Ask him. He said that he was afraid that Brother Wen would not know him, so he had to ask Second Master to write a letter back and ask Brother Ai to draw a smaller one so that Brother Wen could read it every day. look."

"That's a good idea." Jia Min looked at Daiyu and smiled, "Not only do you have one, but we also have it in our family."

Brother Kuan was not happy when he heard that: "I don't have one."

Daiyu handed her purse to him: "What's rare, this is for you." Jia Min wanted to touch her forehead when she saw it - Daiyu was too small, she just thought that Shen Yue missed Brother Kuan, She is not easy to say clearly.

The only thing that comforted Jia Min was that Fang didn't think there was anything wrong with Shen Yue's portrait of Daiyu, he still smiled and said: "You can enter Beijing soon, we don't know when we want to enter Beijing .”

Jia Min had no choice but to comfort her and said: "If you can survive this time, there will always be decades of peace. Mr. Shen will come to Beijing to report on his duties, and you will follow when the time comes."

Daiyu smiled at Fang Shi: "Grandma told me before she came to Beijing that I will clean up grandma's house. I know best how to tidy up the house to make grandma happy."

Mrs. Fang hugged her over and said reluctantly, "Your wife is fine, you have given me a break by walking away." Jia Min pretended not to follow after hearing this, and the two laughed and laughed a few more times before taking the table together.

A few days after Daiyu's birthday, Jia Min received a letter from Lin Ruhai, saying that everything was almost packed, and it would take two days for the servants to hurry up.The properties that can be sold are sold, and those that cannot be sold should be looked after by Mr. Fang.The servants put what should be released, what should be brought, loaded with two large boats, and Mr. Li escorted them. Jia Min brought Daiyu and Brother Kuan with him. Come to the capital.

At this time, everyone in the capital already knew that the elementary school student who was good at painting at the Imperial Academy had actually painted the real face of the Empress Dowager, which shocked the empress dowager to be a real person, and offered incense day and night to worship.Because of this, the elementary school student got a seventh-rank enshrinement, and he went to the palace from time to time to paint portraits of the nobles.

Acquaintances went to Shen's house to congratulate them one after another, and some asked for paintings in front of Shen Xueshi and Shen Shangshu. How could these two old foxes be taken advantage of?One has always made it clear to others that now Shen Yue not only wants to study in the Imperial College, but also has to enter the palace to write his true face for the noble.We are all courtiers, so we can't take over from the nobles first, can we?Then you lose the way of being a minister, and the ministers who are loyal and good ministers will definitely not be like this, so wait, wait, wait.

This saved Shen Yue from rejecting it by himself, and asked Lin Ruhai to give a random lecture: The most feared thing in the world is to use the tiger's skin as a banner. No one cares whether you made the tiger skin yourself. It's frightening in the hand.

So Shen Yue refused to give portraits to others in the Guozijian, and used the words of the two old foxes of the Shen family.This is not without consequences. Except for the Fang family and the Liu family, no one who had acquired Shen Yue's paintings in those years ago dared to say that they had Shen Yue's portraits in their homes, so they had to secretly enjoy themselves in their own homes. .

Shen Yue didn't enter the palace in the afternoon that day, but he didn't go back to the scholar's mansion, but went directly to Jinzhixuan.Xiao Er was already familiar with him, and greeted him warmly when he came, "My lord, didn't you have class today? There is a private room upstairs, and there are few people now, so you can live in peace and quiet."

Shen Yue nodded to him, and followed up to the second floor. As soon as he entered the private room, he felt the fragrance was overwhelming. When he took a closer look, he saw a delicate red plum in the plum vase. Shen Yue couldn't help but smile: "At this time, your boss To be able to find such a beautiful plum blossom is also an elegant person."

Xiao Er jokingly said: "Our boss left Beijing yesterday and got a total of three branches in one village. I put one in my study and two in the private room. The little one knows that the young master is a rare lover of flowers, so he asked Please sit in this room, my lord."

Shen Yue smiled slightly after hearing this, and Shuang Yue stuffed a small piece of broken silver into Xiao Er's hand: "I just heard you knock your teeth, but you haven't brought tea to the young master for a long time. Go and urge it, if it's from the general's mansion Second Master Lian is here, please come in directly."

Only then did Xiao Er realize that Shen Yue had an appointment, and as soon as he stuffed the broken silver into his belt, he went down to urge Cha and wait for him.There's no need to wait for a while, Jia Lian has already come in, smiled and said to Shen Yue: "You let brother wait for me today, you should be punished." As he spoke, he didn't care that he was older than Shen Yue, so he bowed to Shen Yue.

Shen Yue left his seat in embarrassment: "Second Master Lian, please don't hurt me. If the husband finds out, he will definitely beat me. If the teacher knows, I can't explain it clearly."

Jia Lian smiled and said, "Auntie is back, I will explain to her brother that you have helped me a lot." After speaking, she sat down in the guest seat, but picked up the teapot to order some tea for Shen Yue.

Shen Yue was puzzled and said: "It is said that Yushi has already visited your house, even Zhang Shaoqing also came to the door and asked the old lady to count your mother's private house in person. You are not at home so you can collect things to settle accounts. What do you want me for?"

Speaking of this, Jia Lian was full of resentment: "My uncle went, and there was another uncle who was a censor in the same year. First, he accused the second master of his wrong intentions. The second master was afraid. The old lady, for the sake of the second master's official position, It has also been agreed to let the second master move out of Rongxi hall."

"For some reason, our master committed left sex again, and he refused to move out of the East Courtyard. The old lady insisted on letting the second master's family live in the East Courtyard, saying that other courtyards were not satisfactory, and they could not live in the second room. There are many people. He also said that he will move the things to me after the master moves into the Rongxi Hall, so as to save the tossing back and forth in the mansion and the East Courtyard."

Oh, Shen Yue has such a violent temper.The Jia family's affairs have been tossing for half a month, and the big house has been arguing for half a day, but it is only on the surface that it has the upper hand. In fact, it is not only that the glorious Xitang has not lived in, but Zhang's dowry is still in Jia's mother's private treasury.

So what are you struggling with?Shen Yue looked at Jia Lian in the wrong way, wondering whether he had found the wrong partner, if he had just presented the facts to Jia Zheng and made him educate Jia Baoyu, and divorced Mrs. Wang by the way, would it be okay? Faster results?

It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in the world, Shen Yue still has to find a way for Jia Lian.It's just that this method can't be thought of in vain, there must be some benefits.Seeing that Shen Yue picked up the teacup, gently turned it under his nose and sniffed, but didn't speak.

Jia Lian also saw that there seemed to be a flash of disdain in Shen Yue's eyes just now, but he didn't say anything: I have all the conveniences on my side, who would have thought that it would be my own father who shrank his head in the end?

"Good brother, help me think of an idea again, if it doesn't work, I don't dare to bother you anymore." Jia Lian pushed Dim Sum in front of Shen Yue, begging with a bright smile.

"Sir, if you don't want me to be distracted by external things, if you know that I met the second master Lian today, you will definitely hit me." Shen Yue shook his head.

Jia Lian thought that every time Uncle Lin would yell loudly, when did he really hit you?He had to swear on his face: "Don't worry, brother, be careful when brother comes, he didn't bring a single servant with him. Besides, they only thought I was hanging around Huajie, how could they think of looking for me in such an elegant place?"

"Shut up." Shen Yue had an urgent expression on his face: "It is because of this gentleman that I am not allowed to get closer to you." After speaking, he looked outside guiltily, but it was a pity that there was a curtain blocking it, so he couldn't see it Someone outside the room could be eavesdropping.

Jia Lian also knew that his uncle was a real gentleman, unlike the second master who only had a good face and was not annoyed by Shen Yue's words, just waiting for him to give him advice.Shen Yue thought for a while and asked Jia Lian: "If people like you who come and go with you usually do things for you or give you advice, how can you thank them?"

With the words of Shen Yue earlier, Jia Lian was a little embarrassed to speak, and seeing that Shen Yue looked like I would not give an idea if you don't tell me, he blushed a little and said: "It's just that you can invite them to the yard, or buy two girls. Thanks."

"Then you can also buy me four girls." Shen Yue felt that this thank you gift was acceptable.

"Okay, huh?" Jia Lian made him jump up in fright: "Brother, you are only a young man, and you want a girl." If Uncle Lin or his uncle find out, he will be the one who broke his leg.

Shen Yue glared at him: "It's not the kind of girl you usually use. The girl you find for me doesn't have to be very good-looking, a female celebrity needs to be outstanding, her mouth should be quiet, and her temperament should be calm and not competitive. Age does not matter. More than eleven or twelve years old, don't be younger than seven or eight years old. But it shouldn't be too ugly." If sister Lin feels uncomfortable looking at it, then she has committed a serious crime.

Although Jia Lian was puzzled, he had no choice but to agree to Shen Yue's idea.Only then did Shen Yue smile at him: "The old lady just cares about the second master's official position, and let her know that whether the second master can succeed in this official position depends on your own thoughts, and it's all right."

so easy?Jia Lian felt that it would be more convenient for him to persuade Jia Amnesty: "Are you joking? I only have a donated title of fellow acquaintance, and I still want the second master to be an official if he says he wants to be an official. So if I still take care of those bad things at home, wouldn’t it be good to be an official myself?”

Well, why not, it is very good.Shen Yue glanced at Jia Lian approvingly: "Second Master Lian should really go out and become an official."

Jia Lian laughed at himself: "I am such a person who can't study well, who can't get on the horse, who needs me?" Immediately remembering that Shen Yue hadn't finished giving himself an idea, he asked: "Brother, at least speak clearly, how can I let me go?" The old lady knows that the second master is an official if I want him to do it, so he can do it, but if I don't want him to do it, he can't do it?"

Shen Yue shook his head and sighed: "Second Master Lian, people say that you are easy to change, and you have seen the second master in your mansion work. Think about it, the second master is just a fifth-rank Yuanwailang, and he is still in the Ministry of Industry , how can we socialize among the nobles?"

"It's because of our family's face." Jia Lian said without hesitation.

Shen Yue had no choice but to be a life mentor for him once: "You are still the eldest son of the mansion, why don't people sell your face? People only come and go when they come and go. Just like when my husband went to your mansion last time, The second master just opened his mouth if he has difficulties. My husband had just entered Beijing at that time, if he had something invisible in his mind, would he give it a try after hearing this?"

"When you try it, you will find that it is not the second master of your mansion who is helping, but your uncle and father-in-law. But without the second master helping you, my husband can't make friends with your uncle and father-in-law, right? Do you want to accept the love of your uncle and father-in-law, and also the love of the second master of your mansion?"

Jia Lian nodded thoughtfully, and heard Shen Yue continue: "There are so many things like this, do you think that everyone thinks that the second master of your mansion is capable? Besides, he doesn't accept favors from others. If he only acts as a human being around, everyone will praise him as a gentleman."

Seeing that Jia Lian couldn't keep his mouth shut, Shen Yue took another dose of strong medicine: "Actually, the envoy Wang Jiedu and you are also related to the second master Lian, so you can say that to the second master Lian, why no one believes you Woolen cloth?"

"Yeah, why doesn't anyone believe me?" Jia Lian also wanted people to believe him, but he knew that there would be great benefits here.
