Mrs. Xing reversed the Dream of Red Mansions
Chapter 56 Glory
Jia She's entry into the capital was very splendid. As early as the day before they had just arrived in Tongzhou, someone had notified them. Three days later, at Sishi, some officials were waiting at Shilipo to announce the decree. Forgive me for wasting time.
This is the rank of a great general returning home in triumph. There are only a handful of civil servants and military generals who have enjoyed this kind of treatment since the founding of the country, and Jia Amnesty is (civilian? Honorable?) No. 1 non-military meritorious service. It can be said that it has been recorded in history since then. Yes, the meaning is naturally extraordinary.
The three days is also to give them time to get ready to take a rest and take a bath, and they will probably have to create momentum in the capital to spread the news more widely. The crowd of people watching must be huge, unprecedented.
Jia Amnesty was a person who couldn't hide his worries. After hearing the notice, he immediately walked in a flutter. He couldn't find the north, and he didn't know what to say. Arrange people to find a place to rest. There are too many people in their group, and the inn must not be able to accommodate them. floor covering.
Because of this imperial decree, the officials at the post station have always treated Jia She as a guest of honor. No matter what Xing Wei wants, they will be delivered first. Do you have any orders?"
Xing Wei sent someone out to thank him, and only wanted to take care of him, and let someone reward him with a big red seal. Naturally, Xing Wei knew what the post minister was thinking, but he was just here to burn the stove and have a relationship with Jia Sheila. But since Jia Amnesty received the notice, he has been a little dazed. He looks like Fan Jinzhong, he doesn't listen to others' words at all, and just walks back and forth in the room restlessly. In fact, he wants to show off outside. But Xing Wei thought it was embarrassing for him to go out like this, so she kept looking at him, and pulled him back as soon as she got to the door. Fortunately, Jia She couldn't listen to people's words and recognized Xing Wei, as long as she pulled him, she would always come back.
Jia Amnesty was dazed and was served by Xing Wei, took off his clothes and went to sleep, still muttering something, Xing Wei was very impatient, stuffed the sleeping little daughter into his arms, and warned him ;"Be careful not to drop the child, or I will never end with you."
This is a trick that has been tried and tested time and time again. It's not that Xing Wei can't control Jia Amnesty, it's just that the boss is alone, and he can't even stand up to things. He, besides, Jia She glared, she had to arrange the rest of the matter, she was busy going around, there was no time to appease Jia She.
I didn't expect these things before, Xing Wei sent the capable housekeeper and the housekeeper's wife to go back early to pack the house with their luggage. Fortunately, nothing happened along the way, and the big maid and two nuns left I can still handle it, but such a thing is too grand after all, not to mention the maids, Jia Amnesty and Xing Wei have never experienced it before, so she can leave it to the servants to do it, so she can only ask the staff carefully. I asked the post minister for consultation, compared the information I got from the person who sent the notice, and the things summarized by the Tongzhou county magistrate during the day, and worked out a regulation. I will follow it tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. As for the regulation , In fact, she was also worried, so she rushed out in a hurry, and had already been sent back to the Zhang Mansion in the capital. I hope the old man can give me some advice. It doesn't matter if I arrive tomorrow, I just hope that there will be no mistakes in the day after tomorrow.
This Jia She is holding his little daughter Jia Ai in his arms, his soul has finally come back, his arms are stiff and he dare not move, the little daughter is different from his son's roughness, she is soft and delicate, every time it makes him feel scared Not daring to move: "Ma'am, am I not dreaming?" He asked Xing Wei in a daze, Xing Wei stretched out her hand on his soft flesh and grabbed him vigorously, causing Jia She to "hiss" in pain, but finally Said: "I'm not dreaming." His grandfather and father earned the Jia family a marquis is already a supreme honor, did not expect him to be able to get this even greater honor?
"Go to sleep, there are still many things to do tomorrow, and I have to learn the rituals from the etiquette officer, and I have to practice the speech. If I don't sleep well, where will I be energetic?" Xing Wei carried her daughter back. The little girl has been sleeping since the beginning. She was snoring, and her sleep was not affected at all. Like her brother Jia Ying, this girl was also breast-fed and raised by Xing Wei herself. When she was doing things during the day, she would let the nanny watch over them. Whenever she had time, she would do it by herself. With it, sleeping at night is no exception.
The girl is not as tall as the boy, and she probably followed her. She is a soft ball, and it makes people feel sorry for her when she hugs her. When Jia She was teasing Jia Ying, she was so happy that she threw him high into the sky. , When I got to my little daughter, she was so stingy that she didn't dare to move. When she was so grown up, she was still like a newborn baby when she was hugged. She was careful for fear that her hands would be too heavy to press the child's bones. Usually, she would not dare to To tease his daughter, as if he was afraid that a finger would pierce his precious daughter, it was a bit too much to cherish.
Although Jia Amnesty cherishes her daughter very much, Xing Wei is still worried about letting her sleep with her father, otherwise, no one will be able to sleep well this night.
The ceremonial officer came here early this morning, and brought Jia Amnesty's new court clothes, purple python robe and trousers, and a gauze crown of the same color with swallow's wings and gemstones.
It's not that Xing Wei has never seen Jia She wearing a noble uniform before, but it seems that today's outfit is different from the original one. She doesn't understand it herself, and she is embarrassed to say that someone took it wrong. Coming here, I must have not slept well last night, so I hurriedly ordered someone to prepare a good meal for the etiquette officer.
After the meal, Jia Amnesty was excited to learn from the etiquette officer. Although he didn't sleep well all night, he was still full of energy. He probably got over excited after a night's sleep, so yesterday's ugly scene didn't happen, and Xing Wei also She needs to learn how to walk with Jia She, which is specially requested by the etiquette officer. She also has a purple royal dress. Similarly, she can see that this dress is different from the one she has worn before. Similarly, she has no Ask, presumably even if someone framed them, they would not use such an obvious thing to frame them.
I trained nervously for a long time, but fortunately the time was short, Xing Wei was not so tired in the etiquette training in her previous life, she gritted her teeth and endured eating without scolding her mother, she thought Jia Amnesty was the protagonist, but she didn't expect that she would have to accompany her all the way, but she still " She still can't refuse the matter of "rare in a hundred years" and "brilliant ancestors".The clothes and jewelry that are used to the crown weigh more than ten catties, and there are three layers and three layers and three layers of clothes. The whole thing adds up to more than twenty catties. Just standing still will kill her. , Just walking and saluting, kneeling and kowtowing, I really don't know why people in this world are desperately trying to climb up?
If she hadn't been worried about her family, she really wanted to go back to Beijing overnight, so she went back to Rongguo Mansion first. The local people fear the imperial power, but she has been here for more than ten years, and it is still difficult for her to have that kind of fear of the so-called emperor to death Or to the point of being in awe to the point where you can throw away your own life, especially when you have to kneel and kowtow to people you don’t know. In the previous life, when I was a child, I knelt and kowtowed when I was asking for New Year’s money, and was teased and kowtowed by adults. After being sensible, no one would force me to bend my knees. Here, he became a "superior person", but he was not as good as in his previous life. Instead, he had to kneel down to others from time to time.
Jia She's wife, the "role" of the Marquis, is not that she worked as a part-time worker in her previous life.Fortunately, Xing Wei has asked, and she will have very few opportunities to walk for "practice" tomorrow, and it will only be used when she enters the palace for an audience, and most of the time she will just sit upright in the carriage, so, no matter what, she can persist after a day's hard work .
In the afternoon they set off from the post house and rushed to Shilipo overnight, where they set up camp and waited for tomorrow's arrival.
On the second day, Jia Amnesty started the rehearsal again. This time the etiquette officer let Xing Wei go. She sat in the carriage with her daughter in her arms to observe the atmosphere. Coupled with the increasing number of onlookers nearby, the atmosphere rose instantly.
Xing Wei's heart is beating so hard, is it worthwhile for her to go through a journey like this?
"Mother," Xing Wei seemed to hear Jia Ying's voice, and hurriedly stretched her head to look. The curtain that got in the way had been hung up long ago, but all kinds of flags blocked her sight. Fortunately, Jia Amnesty also listened. The son's voice came out, and he hurriedly searched in the crowd, and indeed saw his son's figure from the restless crowd.
Jia She waved his hand to let him come over. A sharp-eyed family member had already gone over to negotiate with the soldiers on duty. Jia Lian and Jia Ying, who flew over early in the morning, were brought to Jia She and saluted Jia She. Jia She was very pleased. , to be able to see the two sons at this moment and enjoy this moment with them.I haven't seen each other for three years. Both children have grown quite a bit taller. Jia Lian already has the appearance of a young man. He is not much shorter than Jia She. When he grows up, he will definitely surpass Jia She. Jia Ying also changed a lot. The baby fat had long since disappeared, and his immature face was full of admiration; he patted the shoulders of his two sons, pushed them to the front of Xing Wei's carriage, and stood there again to receive intensive training from the etiquette officer. Looking back at the wives in the car joking and joking, although I couldn't really hear what they were saying, but seeing their smiling faces right in front of me, my heart was filled with happiness.
The two children stood still in front of Xing Wei's carriage, bowed and saluted, each holding a thousand words in his heart, Xing Wei beckoned to let them get on the carriage, sat down one on the left and one on the right, "Why did you come here?" Is there anyone else who specially informs the family members to come to "watch the ceremony"?
"Yesterday, someone shouted with a loud gong on the street, saying that all the officials greeted father in person today. We were impatient to wait at home and wanted to see you sooner, so we begged grandpa to let us go out of town." Jia Ying chirped and said the whole story If it wasn't for Grandpa's worries, he wanted to go out of the city all night last night, and he couldn't sleep because of the excitement this night. He just wanted to see his relatives earlier.
"There are still people shouting," Xing Wei nodded. If not, so many people would not have come, "Did you see your uncle and aunt?"
"Little uncle is in the academy, I don't know if he has received any news. The eldest uncle is worried that my aunt is waiting beside the carriage with the child," pointing to the general direction. It is too far away and blocked by the flag, so it is impossible to see clearly. , Xing Wei knew that the person was coming, that's all, but she was a little regretful that she didn't see him in the first place.
Xing Wei hugged her youngest daughter, Jia Ai, and showed it to her two elder brothers, "Look, this is your younger sister, Jia Ai," Jia Lian greeted her with a smile, "Ai'er," Jia Ying was in a hurry to hug her sister, It was the first time for little Jia Ai to see her two elder brothers, who were huddled in her mother's arms, looked left and right with curious eyes, and saw that this strange elder brother was about to hug her, she panicked and grabbed her mother's clothes tightly with one hand. , pushed Jia Ying with one hand, still shouting anxiously; "Don't, don't".
Xing Weile smiled uncontrollably, patted Jia Ying on the shoulder and said: "Look at you, I have to go to the capital with my second brother, this is good, my sister won't recognize you!" She held Jia Ying in her arms and patted Shoulder, Jia Ying was a little uncomfortable, but she still didn't refuse, but little Jia Ai quit, just writhed in Xing Wei's arms, "Go away, go away, my mother was robbed," "Haha," Xing Wei smiled Let go of Jia Ying, hug the little daughter with both hands, point to Jia Lian to show her, and tell her to shout, "Second brother, this is your second brother," little Jia Ai sat looking at her smilingly. The good-looking brother had a very good impression, he only tilted his head to look at it, and after a while he called out; "Second brother".
"Ah," Jia Lian took out a jade pendant from his bosom, which he bought specially for Jia Ai as a meeting gift. The crystal clear old Hetian jade, with red silk on the white background, was carved into a vivid goldfish , the red silk is as natural as the colorful patterns on the fish itself. The holes are drilled on the fins and tied with colorful tapes, and the bottom is decorated with colorful ribbons. When you hold it in your hand, it will move in the wind, looking like a fish in the wind. Swimming in the water is like swimming, not to mention the value of this jade, the carving alone is from the hands of famous masters, and the value is definitely doubled.
Jia Ai really liked it very much, she hastily stretched out her hand to ask for it, and called obediently: "Second brother," holding it in her hand, she raised her head and looked at Jia Lian again, seeing him smiling and squinting his eyes, obviously he loved her very much. Hastily and obediently stretched out her hand for him to hug.Jia Lian was taken aback, and Xing Wei was angry that her daughter was bought by "a fish". Angrily, she pushed Jia Ai into Jia Lian's arms, "Go," and put her arms around Jia Ying, "I don't want you." Yes, I want your third brother."
Little Jia Ai rolled her eyes, looked at Xing Wei, looked up at Jia Lian, looked at the fish in her hand, and finally lowered her head to play with her new gift.
Jia Ying was leaning in his mother's arms. Since he left, he hadn't smelled this familiar smell for three years. He sniffed hard greedily, suppressing the bitterness in his heart, and when he looked up again, his face hung. With a face of unwillingness, she broke away from Xing Wei's arms, only looked at Jia Ai and said angrily: "Jia Ai, third brother also has a gift here." He also took out an object from his arms, but it was a A jade dragonfly made of sapphire is also exquisitely crafted, its beard and hair can be discerned, and its thin wings are still trembling slightly with the movements of its hands.
Jia Ying held the jade dragonfly in her hand, teasing her younger sister: "Jia Ai, come to third brother, I'll give it to you." Jia Ai looked at the jade dragonfly and then looked down at the little red fish in her hand, thought for a while, As if she didn't hear it, she lowered her head and played with the little fish in her hand again. Xing Wei smiled, it's okay, it's okay, if she is bought by another jade dragonfly, she doesn't know if this daughter is a money fanatic, and she doesn't give less than usual. She played with these gold and jade toys, but she was bought by a fish.
Seeing her younger sister ignoring her, Jia Ying was very frustrated, and angrily threw the jade dragonfly into Jia Ai's arms, saying, "I don't care about you anymore."
Jia Ai picked up the jade dragonfly from her bosom, raised her head to look at Xing Wei, Jia Ying, then turned her head to look at Jia Lian, seeing Xing Wei squinting her eyes and smiling at herself, Jia Ying puffed up and didn't look at herself, Jia Lian With a smile on his face and encouragement in his eyes, he lowered his head and thought for a while, and said, "Thank you, third brother." Jia Ying heard this like hearing Tianzhu, and happily turned her head and stretched out her hand to hug her, but Jia Ai still didn't give face , grabbed Jia Lian's clothes and hid behind him. It's the second brother who loves to laugh and is kind, so he doesn't want the fierce third brother.
Jia Lian was still smiling, and stretched out his hand to rub his sister's head. The sister still smelled of milk, her cute and well-behaved appearance melted his heart. Jia Ai felt his tenderness, and squinted her eyes to enjoy it. Didn't it make Jia Ying even angrier after seeing it?He said harshly; "See if I go out to play and take you with me."
Jia Ai didn't quite understand Jia Ying's threat, but she knew it was not a good word. She wrinkled her nose and bared her teeth at Jia Ying, making a grimace, holding a red fish in her left hand and a dragonfly in her right, and started playing.
The three sisters played around for a while, when they heard a commotion outside, Jia Ying looked up, "Wanmin Umbrella", he knew that his father had a Wanmin Umbrella before, but he had never seen the later one, so he was surprised , turned to Xing Wei and said, "That new one is so big."
Xing Wei smiled. The people in the five counties accumulated more Wanmin umbrellas than the people in one county. Knowing that it was two Wanmin umbrellas that were propped up, it caused a sensation. She looked at Jia She in front of her, and it was already Riding on a black horse, against the purple robe on his body, he looked more calm and capable, and his figure became taller. Xing Wei looked at Jia Lian and Jia Ying again, and nodded to them. It was almost time, and the ceremony was about to begin. He tidied up his clothes and hat, and sat up solemnly.
Jia Lian sat cross-legged, wrapped Jia Ai in his arms, adjusted his sitting posture, and turned slightly outward. Jia Ying was the same as him, except that she was sitting on her knees like her mother, and her stature seemed to be as tall as Jia Lian's. .
Sure enough, as soon as the mother and child were seated, someone came to tell, "Madam, we are about to leave." Xing Wei replied "Yes," and the carriage started to move.
The front team started to walk, and Jia Amnesty was in front of Xing Wei's carriage. Because of the flag blocking it, Xing Wei couldn't see very far, and only saw a row of people under the gap where the team in front of the carriage passed. The respectful and pious look of the kneeling people in various clothes touched her heart instantly.
His back straightened up unnaturally, his chin was raised slightly, he looked forward, with a smile on his face, although the flag blocked the people's sight, but they couldn't live up to their piety.
The team passed by slowly and gradually opened up the distance. Xing Wei's vision became longer, and her eyes were all black people kneeling on the ground. Farther away, the people standing on the carriage and looking at the clothes were brighter, which was natural. Even those dignitaries and family members of the rich also came to watch the grand occasion.
But before Xing Dequan and the others were found, the team in front stopped. After her carriage stopped, she was blocked by the people and flags in front. Looking at the colorful flags, Xing Wei also relaxed her back , secretly breathed a sigh of relief, moved silently, and changed from kneeling to sitting cross-legged, the double tummy was pressed all the time, the blood was not active, and the stinging pain was uncomfortable.
Xing Wei frowned, and Jia Lian, who was careful, saw him asking softly, "Mother?" Xing Wei was recognized, and there was nothing embarrassing about saying "mother".
"It's okay," Xing Wei shook her head, reached out and hugged the little daughter from Jia Lian's arms. The child has been sitting cross-legged. How much easier is it.
Little Jia Ai has already fallen in love with this gentle second elder brother who is so good at kung fu. When she saw her mother hugging her, she still struggled a little bit, but after all, the mother's embrace is warmer, and she finally compromised with her own heart, but she still has some nostalgia. In the arms of the second brother, a pair of bright eyes stared at Jia Lian closely. Seeing Jia Lian looking over, he hurriedly smiled from him twice to show his favor. When the mother has no time to take her, she can hug the second brother. .
Jia Ying looked annoyed, as long as the second brother was present, the children didn't like him, first Jia Fu, then Zhang's cousins, nephews, and nieces, fortunately, the cousins of the uncle's family were still Those who like him the most, even if the second brother is there, he can't take away their love.
But Jia Ying is still very entangled, this is his own sister, why is it still difficult to stop the demeanor of the second brother?Just because of one of his fish?
Although my own jade dragonfly is not as good-looking as my second brother's fish, it was coaxed by my little uncle to carve it for myself. There is also my own handwriting on it. Of course, the stone was polished at the beginning, polished later, and a few carved in the middle The lines, - good hanging and bad appearance, almost scratched his hand, and was reprimanded by the little uncle.
Isn't it because he was thinking of making one for his sister himself? Although the jade dragonfly stone is not as good as any fish, it is not bad. The green color makes this jade dragonfly just right for the occasion.
It's just that Jia Ying still forgot the children's preferences, that is, they like brightly colored things. Besides, he frightened his sister fiercely first, so the first impression was not good. How could Jia Ai like him?What's more, there was a strong contrast beside him, so he gave up him to find Jia Lian.
Not to mention Jia Ying's entanglement, this routine ceremony of civil and military officials is not necessarily boring. First, some representatives read a speech, expressing their recognition and admiration for Jia Amnesty's nine-year achievements, and came to welcome him by the emperor's order. Encourage Jia Amnesty to make persistent efforts, and hope that he will always be loyal to the emperor and the country, and serve the people first, etc., because he has to go to the Taiying Hall to meet His Majesty before noon, so this ceremony is relatively simple, and it will be over in less than an hour, because Xing Wei hid in the carriage behind, only heard the ups and downs of memorizing voices, and couldn't understand what they were saying. It was Jia Ying who stretched her neck and listened to Xing Wei, so Xing Wei knew about it.
Civil and military officials of the second rank and below, whether they like it or not, were forced by the Holy Master to come here to welcome Jia Amnesty. After the man finished reading the welcome speech, the officials behind him automatically separated to make way for a road. The guard of honor was divided this time. On both sides of the row, Wan Minsan went first, followed by Jia She, and Xing Wei's carriage slowly followed, and those next to him followed the guard of honor——still blocked by the flag.
Xing Wei regretted it, but she was also afraid that someone would see her being lazy from the gap, so she had to keep propping herself up and kneeling to maintain a dignified image. Fortunately, the carriage was in a hurry, otherwise she would have fallen apart.
Ten miles is not long, and short is not short, because all the places they pass are cleared, and the road is unimpeded, not only outside the city, but also in the city, all the way to the root of the imperial city, without any obstacles .
The city was crowded with people, but the city was much empty. The people rushed out of the city early to watch the grand occasion, but they did not come back so quickly. The officials and their families had carriages, but few people dared to cross the team to surpass Jia She and his party. Even if they did not go out of the city, they were blocked by the street clearing team, so they had to wait for Jia Amnesty and his party to pass before they could move forward.
Jia Amnesty got off his horse outside the imperial city, kowtowed three times in the direction of the Taiying Hall, to thank the Holy Majesty for his kindness, he even gave him such a great honor, and even sent a hundred officials to welcome him, and solemnly sorted it out Robe and crown belt, waiting for Xing Wei to get off the car and walk with him to thank him.
Earlier, when I told them that hundreds of officials would welcome them in person, it was said that the Holy Majesty was going to meet their husband and wife. Yes, Xing Wei would also have an audience with His Majesty. She had seen the queen and other concubines before, and they were all in the harem, except for Jia Except for Xie En, who was awarded the title last time, because she has a title, in the past and after that, she would go to the palace to receive a banquet or to give thanks every year. The queue early in the morning, accompanied by many foreign wives, was bustling and bustling. I couldn't imagine it. Today There is a special meeting between her and Jia Amnesty, so I still go to see His Majesty the Emperor.
This is a rare "honor".
It's not uncommon for the emperor to see a foreign woman, but such a solemn event is very rare, even she followed Jia Amnesty to be greeted by civil and military officials earlier, so she also asked the etiquette officer earlier and said yes The Holy Majesty specifically requested it, so she had no room to refuse.
The two of them walked towards the wide-open palace gate step by step, and Wanmin's umbrella was still in front of them. In other words, Jia She's getting such "glory" was inseparable from these two umbrellas.According to history, it is not uncommon for officials to receive the Wanmin Umbrella during their term of office. They can be re-elected for three terms, and there are absolutely a small number of people who have received two umbrellas. A signal from officials.
As long as you are sincere for the people, you will be seen by the higher-ups. As long as you are willing and capable, the higher-ups will naturally reward your achievements.
Rongguo Mansion, Jia Mu's place, the old lady was listening to the family members who came back from the city on flying horses to recite the grand occasion: "········································· The wife and the second son, the third son and the younger sister sat in the carriage behind, and did not get out of the carriage.... Only the two Wanmin umbrellas are bigger than the other, and the big one has a room. It looks like a house, and there are more than [-] people to support it, and the servant has inquired carefully, and it turned out that it was supported by the same batch of masters who came back,... Hou Ye, his wife, and the young master and younger sister went to see His Majesty."
In Wang's hand, the string of Buddhist beads was bestowed by the Holy Majesty himself in the early years. She polished it day and night, and it has long since turned dark red in color, smoother and more shiny.It's just that her heart became extremely gloomy following the servant's narration. The more beautiful the big house, the more unlucky she will be. However, she looked at the old lady above, her eyes were dim and unclear, and she had expected it a long time ago. Today, no matter how Jia She and his wife return to the city today, it seems that they have to fight their backs, either to earn a place for themselves, or to be imprisoned again to eat fast and worship Buddha.
For this reason, she did not hesitate to entrust her young daughter to her elder brother and sent her to the Prince's mansion. Fortunately, her daughter was upright and fell into the Prince's eyes after a short time. No, she has already become a talented person of the Prince. Backing her up, Jia She and his wife have to try their own skills if they want to move her.
Just in case, the niece of her natal family who had no choice but to plan a marriage for Jia Zhu, no matter what, the two important things in her heart have been achieved, even if Jia She and his wife want to lock her up again, she will have a bright future.
The old lady of Jia's mother thought differently than Wang's. She lowered her eyes and couldn't help but also ponder. The flames of the first room were even higher, and the second room was dangerous. But Jia Zheng, she took a look, where is he at this time?Wanting to send someone to look for it, but thinking of how to get him to listen to the dazzling scenery of the boss?That's all, that's all, out of sight, out of mind, who cares, can still kick my old lady out of the house?
As soon as the old lady waved away the dry-mouthed servants, she heard the announcement from the outside, "Second and third sons are back," and then hesitated to report; "Second young sister is back." It was Jia Lian who knew that his parents were going to see His Majesty and didn't know when they would return, so he had already discussed with Xing Wei in the carriage. After watching them enter the palace, he took his younger siblings back to Rongguo Mansion first, and arranged to receive the order later.
The couple will never go home empty-handed when they enter the palace for an audience. Maybe there will be a eunuch delivering the decree. How can the family do without a person in charge?
When Jia Lian and Jia Ying came back, they naturally had no reason to leave their sister alone, so they brought her back to Rongguo Mansion.
The old lady stretched her neck to look at the door, and when the curtain was raised, she saw Jia Lianxin's long body coming in, but he held a little man in his arms, who looked like two or three years old. Put it on the ground, and Jia Ying took her hand from left to right and walked towards the old lady to sit.
At first glance, the little girl is just another Xing Wei, wearing a bright red Baifu swastika jacket with the same color to the head and a pleated skirt of the same color. , the word "Fu" is dazzling against the light.
The little girl also quietly raised her head to look at the old lady sitting on her seat. A slight shake brought a series of brisk sounds. It turned out that there were two small hair tied on the left and right sides of her head, and two gold bars were tied on each of them. The little bell that hits makes a crisp sound when it moves.
There was a soft light between her steps, it turned out to be the embroidered shoes on her feet, both of which were adorned with a few huge pearls, the soft light emitted by each one was the size of an adult's thumb, but the non-beads were It's a treasure, but it's just stepped on by the little girl. It's just a tyranny. This outfit looks like Jia She's daughter of a nouveau riche, and only the shallow-sighted Xing can dress her daughter like this. .
The old lady disliked the little girl just by looking at her face. This mean look is exactly like her mother, and she will be a white-eyed wolf who can't support her family in the future; A yard is in a hurry, but they piled up gold mountains and silver seas on a girl, how painful is it? When she grows up, she is not someone else, why waste money on her like this?
However, the big house is no longer what it used to be, and it has long since ceased to be afraid of me being an old lady, not to mention being the master of the house, even going in and out depends on the face of the family, the old lady suppressed her anger and put a smile on her face , beckoning Jia Ai to go over, saying: "This is grandma's little granddaughter, come quickly and let grandma take a good look at it."
Little Jia Ai refused to go there, and looked down at her own toes. This grandma smiled kindly, but her face was fierce. She was not friendly at all. Children are the most sensitive, and they can tell who really likes her just by meeting them. , or a person with a happy face and an evil heart.
The old lady was embarrassed for a moment, and immediately changed the subject: "Your father and mother have already entered the palace. I don't know when they will be able to come back?"
Jia Lian replied respectfully: "My grandson doesn't know either. He came back first to prepare." Although he didn't say what to prepare, everyone knew it in their hearts.
So the old lady waved her hand, "Go, don't delay the business."
There were only three siblings, so they left and went out, Jia Ying held back her mouth, and the old lady saved the meeting ceremony, how stingy is that?But my sister doesn't care too much about her things, they are just some broken jade that can't be sold, and the quality is not as good as the few stones in my uncle's box.
It turned out that Jia's mother made up for Jia Ying's meeting ceremony after all, but the old lady treasured her own things too much now, and after thinking about it, she picked one of the last few pieces to give to Jia Ying. The wife can't get in, the two sons are unreliable, and the daughter belongs to someone else. If she doesn't keep good things for herself in the elderly, how can she give them to others?
Jia She and Xing Wei naturally have to show respect to the old lady every year, and gifts are sent to the Rongguo Mansion every year and festivals, but Jia She and Xing Wei are narrow-minded in revenge. Madam Jinyin, but this is the old lady's favorite, how can the old lady not hate it?
Jia Ying is the son of Jia She and Xing Wei, how could he get good things from the old lady?
Jia Ai didn't care about these things, the little girl yawned as soon as she went out, and opened her eyes to see the freshness since she woke up in the morning. She persisted all the way without dozing off, which was already her limit.Jia Lian carried Jia Ai to the main courtyard, and asked Jia Ying to watch her: "You watch my sister sleep, and I will explain something."
Naturally, Jia Ying was worried about handing over her younger sister to the servants. Although the family members her parents were accustomed to had come back early to help them decorate the room, how could there be no relatives around her when her younger sister slept at home?
Jia Ai still refused to let Jia Lian go, but Jia Lian coaxed her, "I'll pick up my parents, and my third brother will sleep with you." Jia Ying also lowered her body and coaxed her softly, and promised many fun things. The three sisters went back home first on the way, Jia Ying was already half acquainted with Jia Ai, and compared to living with servants, she still liked the company of the third brother.
When Xing Wei finally came back, she saw Jia Ying and Jia Ai sleeping in each other's arms, sleeping sweetly with their heads resting on their heads. She had no time to take off her heavy crown and jewellery, and put on light, homely clothes, sitting by the side of the bed and watching The sleeping faces of a pair of sons and daughters are full of happiness welling up in their hearts.
This is the rank of a great general returning home in triumph. There are only a handful of civil servants and military generals who have enjoyed this kind of treatment since the founding of the country, and Jia Amnesty is (civilian? Honorable?) No. 1 non-military meritorious service. It can be said that it has been recorded in history since then. Yes, the meaning is naturally extraordinary.
The three days is also to give them time to get ready to take a rest and take a bath, and they will probably have to create momentum in the capital to spread the news more widely. The crowd of people watching must be huge, unprecedented.
Jia Amnesty was a person who couldn't hide his worries. After hearing the notice, he immediately walked in a flutter. He couldn't find the north, and he didn't know what to say. Arrange people to find a place to rest. There are too many people in their group, and the inn must not be able to accommodate them. floor covering.
Because of this imperial decree, the officials at the post station have always treated Jia She as a guest of honor. No matter what Xing Wei wants, they will be delivered first. Do you have any orders?"
Xing Wei sent someone out to thank him, and only wanted to take care of him, and let someone reward him with a big red seal. Naturally, Xing Wei knew what the post minister was thinking, but he was just here to burn the stove and have a relationship with Jia Sheila. But since Jia Amnesty received the notice, he has been a little dazed. He looks like Fan Jinzhong, he doesn't listen to others' words at all, and just walks back and forth in the room restlessly. In fact, he wants to show off outside. But Xing Wei thought it was embarrassing for him to go out like this, so she kept looking at him, and pulled him back as soon as she got to the door. Fortunately, Jia She couldn't listen to people's words and recognized Xing Wei, as long as she pulled him, she would always come back.
Jia Amnesty was dazed and was served by Xing Wei, took off his clothes and went to sleep, still muttering something, Xing Wei was very impatient, stuffed the sleeping little daughter into his arms, and warned him ;"Be careful not to drop the child, or I will never end with you."
This is a trick that has been tried and tested time and time again. It's not that Xing Wei can't control Jia Amnesty, it's just that the boss is alone, and he can't even stand up to things. He, besides, Jia She glared, she had to arrange the rest of the matter, she was busy going around, there was no time to appease Jia She.
I didn't expect these things before, Xing Wei sent the capable housekeeper and the housekeeper's wife to go back early to pack the house with their luggage. Fortunately, nothing happened along the way, and the big maid and two nuns left I can still handle it, but such a thing is too grand after all, not to mention the maids, Jia Amnesty and Xing Wei have never experienced it before, so she can leave it to the servants to do it, so she can only ask the staff carefully. I asked the post minister for consultation, compared the information I got from the person who sent the notice, and the things summarized by the Tongzhou county magistrate during the day, and worked out a regulation. I will follow it tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. As for the regulation , In fact, she was also worried, so she rushed out in a hurry, and had already been sent back to the Zhang Mansion in the capital. I hope the old man can give me some advice. It doesn't matter if I arrive tomorrow, I just hope that there will be no mistakes in the day after tomorrow.
This Jia She is holding his little daughter Jia Ai in his arms, his soul has finally come back, his arms are stiff and he dare not move, the little daughter is different from his son's roughness, she is soft and delicate, every time it makes him feel scared Not daring to move: "Ma'am, am I not dreaming?" He asked Xing Wei in a daze, Xing Wei stretched out her hand on his soft flesh and grabbed him vigorously, causing Jia She to "hiss" in pain, but finally Said: "I'm not dreaming." His grandfather and father earned the Jia family a marquis is already a supreme honor, did not expect him to be able to get this even greater honor?
"Go to sleep, there are still many things to do tomorrow, and I have to learn the rituals from the etiquette officer, and I have to practice the speech. If I don't sleep well, where will I be energetic?" Xing Wei carried her daughter back. The little girl has been sleeping since the beginning. She was snoring, and her sleep was not affected at all. Like her brother Jia Ying, this girl was also breast-fed and raised by Xing Wei herself. When she was doing things during the day, she would let the nanny watch over them. Whenever she had time, she would do it by herself. With it, sleeping at night is no exception.
The girl is not as tall as the boy, and she probably followed her. She is a soft ball, and it makes people feel sorry for her when she hugs her. When Jia She was teasing Jia Ying, she was so happy that she threw him high into the sky. , When I got to my little daughter, she was so stingy that she didn't dare to move. When she was so grown up, she was still like a newborn baby when she was hugged. She was careful for fear that her hands would be too heavy to press the child's bones. Usually, she would not dare to To tease his daughter, as if he was afraid that a finger would pierce his precious daughter, it was a bit too much to cherish.
Although Jia Amnesty cherishes her daughter very much, Xing Wei is still worried about letting her sleep with her father, otherwise, no one will be able to sleep well this night.
The ceremonial officer came here early this morning, and brought Jia Amnesty's new court clothes, purple python robe and trousers, and a gauze crown of the same color with swallow's wings and gemstones.
It's not that Xing Wei has never seen Jia She wearing a noble uniform before, but it seems that today's outfit is different from the original one. She doesn't understand it herself, and she is embarrassed to say that someone took it wrong. Coming here, I must have not slept well last night, so I hurriedly ordered someone to prepare a good meal for the etiquette officer.
After the meal, Jia Amnesty was excited to learn from the etiquette officer. Although he didn't sleep well all night, he was still full of energy. He probably got over excited after a night's sleep, so yesterday's ugly scene didn't happen, and Xing Wei also She needs to learn how to walk with Jia She, which is specially requested by the etiquette officer. She also has a purple royal dress. Similarly, she can see that this dress is different from the one she has worn before. Similarly, she has no Ask, presumably even if someone framed them, they would not use such an obvious thing to frame them.
I trained nervously for a long time, but fortunately the time was short, Xing Wei was not so tired in the etiquette training in her previous life, she gritted her teeth and endured eating without scolding her mother, she thought Jia Amnesty was the protagonist, but she didn't expect that she would have to accompany her all the way, but she still " She still can't refuse the matter of "rare in a hundred years" and "brilliant ancestors".The clothes and jewelry that are used to the crown weigh more than ten catties, and there are three layers and three layers and three layers of clothes. The whole thing adds up to more than twenty catties. Just standing still will kill her. , Just walking and saluting, kneeling and kowtowing, I really don't know why people in this world are desperately trying to climb up?
If she hadn't been worried about her family, she really wanted to go back to Beijing overnight, so she went back to Rongguo Mansion first. The local people fear the imperial power, but she has been here for more than ten years, and it is still difficult for her to have that kind of fear of the so-called emperor to death Or to the point of being in awe to the point where you can throw away your own life, especially when you have to kneel and kowtow to people you don’t know. In the previous life, when I was a child, I knelt and kowtowed when I was asking for New Year’s money, and was teased and kowtowed by adults. After being sensible, no one would force me to bend my knees. Here, he became a "superior person", but he was not as good as in his previous life. Instead, he had to kneel down to others from time to time.
Jia She's wife, the "role" of the Marquis, is not that she worked as a part-time worker in her previous life.Fortunately, Xing Wei has asked, and she will have very few opportunities to walk for "practice" tomorrow, and it will only be used when she enters the palace for an audience, and most of the time she will just sit upright in the carriage, so, no matter what, she can persist after a day's hard work .
In the afternoon they set off from the post house and rushed to Shilipo overnight, where they set up camp and waited for tomorrow's arrival.
On the second day, Jia Amnesty started the rehearsal again. This time the etiquette officer let Xing Wei go. She sat in the carriage with her daughter in her arms to observe the atmosphere. Coupled with the increasing number of onlookers nearby, the atmosphere rose instantly.
Xing Wei's heart is beating so hard, is it worthwhile for her to go through a journey like this?
"Mother," Xing Wei seemed to hear Jia Ying's voice, and hurriedly stretched her head to look. The curtain that got in the way had been hung up long ago, but all kinds of flags blocked her sight. Fortunately, Jia Amnesty also listened. The son's voice came out, and he hurriedly searched in the crowd, and indeed saw his son's figure from the restless crowd.
Jia She waved his hand to let him come over. A sharp-eyed family member had already gone over to negotiate with the soldiers on duty. Jia Lian and Jia Ying, who flew over early in the morning, were brought to Jia She and saluted Jia She. Jia She was very pleased. , to be able to see the two sons at this moment and enjoy this moment with them.I haven't seen each other for three years. Both children have grown quite a bit taller. Jia Lian already has the appearance of a young man. He is not much shorter than Jia She. When he grows up, he will definitely surpass Jia She. Jia Ying also changed a lot. The baby fat had long since disappeared, and his immature face was full of admiration; he patted the shoulders of his two sons, pushed them to the front of Xing Wei's carriage, and stood there again to receive intensive training from the etiquette officer. Looking back at the wives in the car joking and joking, although I couldn't really hear what they were saying, but seeing their smiling faces right in front of me, my heart was filled with happiness.
The two children stood still in front of Xing Wei's carriage, bowed and saluted, each holding a thousand words in his heart, Xing Wei beckoned to let them get on the carriage, sat down one on the left and one on the right, "Why did you come here?" Is there anyone else who specially informs the family members to come to "watch the ceremony"?
"Yesterday, someone shouted with a loud gong on the street, saying that all the officials greeted father in person today. We were impatient to wait at home and wanted to see you sooner, so we begged grandpa to let us go out of town." Jia Ying chirped and said the whole story If it wasn't for Grandpa's worries, he wanted to go out of the city all night last night, and he couldn't sleep because of the excitement this night. He just wanted to see his relatives earlier.
"There are still people shouting," Xing Wei nodded. If not, so many people would not have come, "Did you see your uncle and aunt?"
"Little uncle is in the academy, I don't know if he has received any news. The eldest uncle is worried that my aunt is waiting beside the carriage with the child," pointing to the general direction. It is too far away and blocked by the flag, so it is impossible to see clearly. , Xing Wei knew that the person was coming, that's all, but she was a little regretful that she didn't see him in the first place.
Xing Wei hugged her youngest daughter, Jia Ai, and showed it to her two elder brothers, "Look, this is your younger sister, Jia Ai," Jia Lian greeted her with a smile, "Ai'er," Jia Ying was in a hurry to hug her sister, It was the first time for little Jia Ai to see her two elder brothers, who were huddled in her mother's arms, looked left and right with curious eyes, and saw that this strange elder brother was about to hug her, she panicked and grabbed her mother's clothes tightly with one hand. , pushed Jia Ying with one hand, still shouting anxiously; "Don't, don't".
Xing Weile smiled uncontrollably, patted Jia Ying on the shoulder and said: "Look at you, I have to go to the capital with my second brother, this is good, my sister won't recognize you!" She held Jia Ying in her arms and patted Shoulder, Jia Ying was a little uncomfortable, but she still didn't refuse, but little Jia Ai quit, just writhed in Xing Wei's arms, "Go away, go away, my mother was robbed," "Haha," Xing Wei smiled Let go of Jia Ying, hug the little daughter with both hands, point to Jia Lian to show her, and tell her to shout, "Second brother, this is your second brother," little Jia Ai sat looking at her smilingly. The good-looking brother had a very good impression, he only tilted his head to look at it, and after a while he called out; "Second brother".
"Ah," Jia Lian took out a jade pendant from his bosom, which he bought specially for Jia Ai as a meeting gift. The crystal clear old Hetian jade, with red silk on the white background, was carved into a vivid goldfish , the red silk is as natural as the colorful patterns on the fish itself. The holes are drilled on the fins and tied with colorful tapes, and the bottom is decorated with colorful ribbons. When you hold it in your hand, it will move in the wind, looking like a fish in the wind. Swimming in the water is like swimming, not to mention the value of this jade, the carving alone is from the hands of famous masters, and the value is definitely doubled.
Jia Ai really liked it very much, she hastily stretched out her hand to ask for it, and called obediently: "Second brother," holding it in her hand, she raised her head and looked at Jia Lian again, seeing him smiling and squinting his eyes, obviously he loved her very much. Hastily and obediently stretched out her hand for him to hug.Jia Lian was taken aback, and Xing Wei was angry that her daughter was bought by "a fish". Angrily, she pushed Jia Ai into Jia Lian's arms, "Go," and put her arms around Jia Ying, "I don't want you." Yes, I want your third brother."
Little Jia Ai rolled her eyes, looked at Xing Wei, looked up at Jia Lian, looked at the fish in her hand, and finally lowered her head to play with her new gift.
Jia Ying was leaning in his mother's arms. Since he left, he hadn't smelled this familiar smell for three years. He sniffed hard greedily, suppressing the bitterness in his heart, and when he looked up again, his face hung. With a face of unwillingness, she broke away from Xing Wei's arms, only looked at Jia Ai and said angrily: "Jia Ai, third brother also has a gift here." He also took out an object from his arms, but it was a A jade dragonfly made of sapphire is also exquisitely crafted, its beard and hair can be discerned, and its thin wings are still trembling slightly with the movements of its hands.
Jia Ying held the jade dragonfly in her hand, teasing her younger sister: "Jia Ai, come to third brother, I'll give it to you." Jia Ai looked at the jade dragonfly and then looked down at the little red fish in her hand, thought for a while, As if she didn't hear it, she lowered her head and played with the little fish in her hand again. Xing Wei smiled, it's okay, it's okay, if she is bought by another jade dragonfly, she doesn't know if this daughter is a money fanatic, and she doesn't give less than usual. She played with these gold and jade toys, but she was bought by a fish.
Seeing her younger sister ignoring her, Jia Ying was very frustrated, and angrily threw the jade dragonfly into Jia Ai's arms, saying, "I don't care about you anymore."
Jia Ai picked up the jade dragonfly from her bosom, raised her head to look at Xing Wei, Jia Ying, then turned her head to look at Jia Lian, seeing Xing Wei squinting her eyes and smiling at herself, Jia Ying puffed up and didn't look at herself, Jia Lian With a smile on his face and encouragement in his eyes, he lowered his head and thought for a while, and said, "Thank you, third brother." Jia Ying heard this like hearing Tianzhu, and happily turned her head and stretched out her hand to hug her, but Jia Ai still didn't give face , grabbed Jia Lian's clothes and hid behind him. It's the second brother who loves to laugh and is kind, so he doesn't want the fierce third brother.
Jia Lian was still smiling, and stretched out his hand to rub his sister's head. The sister still smelled of milk, her cute and well-behaved appearance melted his heart. Jia Ai felt his tenderness, and squinted her eyes to enjoy it. Didn't it make Jia Ying even angrier after seeing it?He said harshly; "See if I go out to play and take you with me."
Jia Ai didn't quite understand Jia Ying's threat, but she knew it was not a good word. She wrinkled her nose and bared her teeth at Jia Ying, making a grimace, holding a red fish in her left hand and a dragonfly in her right, and started playing.
The three sisters played around for a while, when they heard a commotion outside, Jia Ying looked up, "Wanmin Umbrella", he knew that his father had a Wanmin Umbrella before, but he had never seen the later one, so he was surprised , turned to Xing Wei and said, "That new one is so big."
Xing Wei smiled. The people in the five counties accumulated more Wanmin umbrellas than the people in one county. Knowing that it was two Wanmin umbrellas that were propped up, it caused a sensation. She looked at Jia She in front of her, and it was already Riding on a black horse, against the purple robe on his body, he looked more calm and capable, and his figure became taller. Xing Wei looked at Jia Lian and Jia Ying again, and nodded to them. It was almost time, and the ceremony was about to begin. He tidied up his clothes and hat, and sat up solemnly.
Jia Lian sat cross-legged, wrapped Jia Ai in his arms, adjusted his sitting posture, and turned slightly outward. Jia Ying was the same as him, except that she was sitting on her knees like her mother, and her stature seemed to be as tall as Jia Lian's. .
Sure enough, as soon as the mother and child were seated, someone came to tell, "Madam, we are about to leave." Xing Wei replied "Yes," and the carriage started to move.
The front team started to walk, and Jia Amnesty was in front of Xing Wei's carriage. Because of the flag blocking it, Xing Wei couldn't see very far, and only saw a row of people under the gap where the team in front of the carriage passed. The respectful and pious look of the kneeling people in various clothes touched her heart instantly.
His back straightened up unnaturally, his chin was raised slightly, he looked forward, with a smile on his face, although the flag blocked the people's sight, but they couldn't live up to their piety.
The team passed by slowly and gradually opened up the distance. Xing Wei's vision became longer, and her eyes were all black people kneeling on the ground. Farther away, the people standing on the carriage and looking at the clothes were brighter, which was natural. Even those dignitaries and family members of the rich also came to watch the grand occasion.
But before Xing Dequan and the others were found, the team in front stopped. After her carriage stopped, she was blocked by the people and flags in front. Looking at the colorful flags, Xing Wei also relaxed her back , secretly breathed a sigh of relief, moved silently, and changed from kneeling to sitting cross-legged, the double tummy was pressed all the time, the blood was not active, and the stinging pain was uncomfortable.
Xing Wei frowned, and Jia Lian, who was careful, saw him asking softly, "Mother?" Xing Wei was recognized, and there was nothing embarrassing about saying "mother".
"It's okay," Xing Wei shook her head, reached out and hugged the little daughter from Jia Lian's arms. The child has been sitting cross-legged. How much easier is it.
Little Jia Ai has already fallen in love with this gentle second elder brother who is so good at kung fu. When she saw her mother hugging her, she still struggled a little bit, but after all, the mother's embrace is warmer, and she finally compromised with her own heart, but she still has some nostalgia. In the arms of the second brother, a pair of bright eyes stared at Jia Lian closely. Seeing Jia Lian looking over, he hurriedly smiled from him twice to show his favor. When the mother has no time to take her, she can hug the second brother. .
Jia Ying looked annoyed, as long as the second brother was present, the children didn't like him, first Jia Fu, then Zhang's cousins, nephews, and nieces, fortunately, the cousins of the uncle's family were still Those who like him the most, even if the second brother is there, he can't take away their love.
But Jia Ying is still very entangled, this is his own sister, why is it still difficult to stop the demeanor of the second brother?Just because of one of his fish?
Although my own jade dragonfly is not as good-looking as my second brother's fish, it was coaxed by my little uncle to carve it for myself. There is also my own handwriting on it. Of course, the stone was polished at the beginning, polished later, and a few carved in the middle The lines, - good hanging and bad appearance, almost scratched his hand, and was reprimanded by the little uncle.
Isn't it because he was thinking of making one for his sister himself? Although the jade dragonfly stone is not as good as any fish, it is not bad. The green color makes this jade dragonfly just right for the occasion.
It's just that Jia Ying still forgot the children's preferences, that is, they like brightly colored things. Besides, he frightened his sister fiercely first, so the first impression was not good. How could Jia Ai like him?What's more, there was a strong contrast beside him, so he gave up him to find Jia Lian.
Not to mention Jia Ying's entanglement, this routine ceremony of civil and military officials is not necessarily boring. First, some representatives read a speech, expressing their recognition and admiration for Jia Amnesty's nine-year achievements, and came to welcome him by the emperor's order. Encourage Jia Amnesty to make persistent efforts, and hope that he will always be loyal to the emperor and the country, and serve the people first, etc., because he has to go to the Taiying Hall to meet His Majesty before noon, so this ceremony is relatively simple, and it will be over in less than an hour, because Xing Wei hid in the carriage behind, only heard the ups and downs of memorizing voices, and couldn't understand what they were saying. It was Jia Ying who stretched her neck and listened to Xing Wei, so Xing Wei knew about it.
Civil and military officials of the second rank and below, whether they like it or not, were forced by the Holy Master to come here to welcome Jia Amnesty. After the man finished reading the welcome speech, the officials behind him automatically separated to make way for a road. The guard of honor was divided this time. On both sides of the row, Wan Minsan went first, followed by Jia She, and Xing Wei's carriage slowly followed, and those next to him followed the guard of honor——still blocked by the flag.
Xing Wei regretted it, but she was also afraid that someone would see her being lazy from the gap, so she had to keep propping herself up and kneeling to maintain a dignified image. Fortunately, the carriage was in a hurry, otherwise she would have fallen apart.
Ten miles is not long, and short is not short, because all the places they pass are cleared, and the road is unimpeded, not only outside the city, but also in the city, all the way to the root of the imperial city, without any obstacles .
The city was crowded with people, but the city was much empty. The people rushed out of the city early to watch the grand occasion, but they did not come back so quickly. The officials and their families had carriages, but few people dared to cross the team to surpass Jia She and his party. Even if they did not go out of the city, they were blocked by the street clearing team, so they had to wait for Jia Amnesty and his party to pass before they could move forward.
Jia Amnesty got off his horse outside the imperial city, kowtowed three times in the direction of the Taiying Hall, to thank the Holy Majesty for his kindness, he even gave him such a great honor, and even sent a hundred officials to welcome him, and solemnly sorted it out Robe and crown belt, waiting for Xing Wei to get off the car and walk with him to thank him.
Earlier, when I told them that hundreds of officials would welcome them in person, it was said that the Holy Majesty was going to meet their husband and wife. Yes, Xing Wei would also have an audience with His Majesty. She had seen the queen and other concubines before, and they were all in the harem, except for Jia Except for Xie En, who was awarded the title last time, because she has a title, in the past and after that, she would go to the palace to receive a banquet or to give thanks every year. The queue early in the morning, accompanied by many foreign wives, was bustling and bustling. I couldn't imagine it. Today There is a special meeting between her and Jia Amnesty, so I still go to see His Majesty the Emperor.
This is a rare "honor".
It's not uncommon for the emperor to see a foreign woman, but such a solemn event is very rare, even she followed Jia Amnesty to be greeted by civil and military officials earlier, so she also asked the etiquette officer earlier and said yes The Holy Majesty specifically requested it, so she had no room to refuse.
The two of them walked towards the wide-open palace gate step by step, and Wanmin's umbrella was still in front of them. In other words, Jia She's getting such "glory" was inseparable from these two umbrellas.According to history, it is not uncommon for officials to receive the Wanmin Umbrella during their term of office. They can be re-elected for three terms, and there are absolutely a small number of people who have received two umbrellas. A signal from officials.
As long as you are sincere for the people, you will be seen by the higher-ups. As long as you are willing and capable, the higher-ups will naturally reward your achievements.
Rongguo Mansion, Jia Mu's place, the old lady was listening to the family members who came back from the city on flying horses to recite the grand occasion: "········································· The wife and the second son, the third son and the younger sister sat in the carriage behind, and did not get out of the carriage.... Only the two Wanmin umbrellas are bigger than the other, and the big one has a room. It looks like a house, and there are more than [-] people to support it, and the servant has inquired carefully, and it turned out that it was supported by the same batch of masters who came back,... Hou Ye, his wife, and the young master and younger sister went to see His Majesty."
In Wang's hand, the string of Buddhist beads was bestowed by the Holy Majesty himself in the early years. She polished it day and night, and it has long since turned dark red in color, smoother and more shiny.It's just that her heart became extremely gloomy following the servant's narration. The more beautiful the big house, the more unlucky she will be. However, she looked at the old lady above, her eyes were dim and unclear, and she had expected it a long time ago. Today, no matter how Jia She and his wife return to the city today, it seems that they have to fight their backs, either to earn a place for themselves, or to be imprisoned again to eat fast and worship Buddha.
For this reason, she did not hesitate to entrust her young daughter to her elder brother and sent her to the Prince's mansion. Fortunately, her daughter was upright and fell into the Prince's eyes after a short time. No, she has already become a talented person of the Prince. Backing her up, Jia She and his wife have to try their own skills if they want to move her.
Just in case, the niece of her natal family who had no choice but to plan a marriage for Jia Zhu, no matter what, the two important things in her heart have been achieved, even if Jia She and his wife want to lock her up again, she will have a bright future.
The old lady of Jia's mother thought differently than Wang's. She lowered her eyes and couldn't help but also ponder. The flames of the first room were even higher, and the second room was dangerous. But Jia Zheng, she took a look, where is he at this time?Wanting to send someone to look for it, but thinking of how to get him to listen to the dazzling scenery of the boss?That's all, that's all, out of sight, out of mind, who cares, can still kick my old lady out of the house?
As soon as the old lady waved away the dry-mouthed servants, she heard the announcement from the outside, "Second and third sons are back," and then hesitated to report; "Second young sister is back." It was Jia Lian who knew that his parents were going to see His Majesty and didn't know when they would return, so he had already discussed with Xing Wei in the carriage. After watching them enter the palace, he took his younger siblings back to Rongguo Mansion first, and arranged to receive the order later.
The couple will never go home empty-handed when they enter the palace for an audience. Maybe there will be a eunuch delivering the decree. How can the family do without a person in charge?
When Jia Lian and Jia Ying came back, they naturally had no reason to leave their sister alone, so they brought her back to Rongguo Mansion.
The old lady stretched her neck to look at the door, and when the curtain was raised, she saw Jia Lianxin's long body coming in, but he held a little man in his arms, who looked like two or three years old. Put it on the ground, and Jia Ying took her hand from left to right and walked towards the old lady to sit.
At first glance, the little girl is just another Xing Wei, wearing a bright red Baifu swastika jacket with the same color to the head and a pleated skirt of the same color. , the word "Fu" is dazzling against the light.
The little girl also quietly raised her head to look at the old lady sitting on her seat. A slight shake brought a series of brisk sounds. It turned out that there were two small hair tied on the left and right sides of her head, and two gold bars were tied on each of them. The little bell that hits makes a crisp sound when it moves.
There was a soft light between her steps, it turned out to be the embroidered shoes on her feet, both of which were adorned with a few huge pearls, the soft light emitted by each one was the size of an adult's thumb, but the non-beads were It's a treasure, but it's just stepped on by the little girl. It's just a tyranny. This outfit looks like Jia She's daughter of a nouveau riche, and only the shallow-sighted Xing can dress her daughter like this. .
The old lady disliked the little girl just by looking at her face. This mean look is exactly like her mother, and she will be a white-eyed wolf who can't support her family in the future; A yard is in a hurry, but they piled up gold mountains and silver seas on a girl, how painful is it? When she grows up, she is not someone else, why waste money on her like this?
However, the big house is no longer what it used to be, and it has long since ceased to be afraid of me being an old lady, not to mention being the master of the house, even going in and out depends on the face of the family, the old lady suppressed her anger and put a smile on her face , beckoning Jia Ai to go over, saying: "This is grandma's little granddaughter, come quickly and let grandma take a good look at it."
Little Jia Ai refused to go there, and looked down at her own toes. This grandma smiled kindly, but her face was fierce. She was not friendly at all. Children are the most sensitive, and they can tell who really likes her just by meeting them. , or a person with a happy face and an evil heart.
The old lady was embarrassed for a moment, and immediately changed the subject: "Your father and mother have already entered the palace. I don't know when they will be able to come back?"
Jia Lian replied respectfully: "My grandson doesn't know either. He came back first to prepare." Although he didn't say what to prepare, everyone knew it in their hearts.
So the old lady waved her hand, "Go, don't delay the business."
There were only three siblings, so they left and went out, Jia Ying held back her mouth, and the old lady saved the meeting ceremony, how stingy is that?But my sister doesn't care too much about her things, they are just some broken jade that can't be sold, and the quality is not as good as the few stones in my uncle's box.
It turned out that Jia's mother made up for Jia Ying's meeting ceremony after all, but the old lady treasured her own things too much now, and after thinking about it, she picked one of the last few pieces to give to Jia Ying. The wife can't get in, the two sons are unreliable, and the daughter belongs to someone else. If she doesn't keep good things for herself in the elderly, how can she give them to others?
Jia She and Xing Wei naturally have to show respect to the old lady every year, and gifts are sent to the Rongguo Mansion every year and festivals, but Jia She and Xing Wei are narrow-minded in revenge. Madam Jinyin, but this is the old lady's favorite, how can the old lady not hate it?
Jia Ying is the son of Jia She and Xing Wei, how could he get good things from the old lady?
Jia Ai didn't care about these things, the little girl yawned as soon as she went out, and opened her eyes to see the freshness since she woke up in the morning. She persisted all the way without dozing off, which was already her limit.Jia Lian carried Jia Ai to the main courtyard, and asked Jia Ying to watch her: "You watch my sister sleep, and I will explain something."
Naturally, Jia Ying was worried about handing over her younger sister to the servants. Although the family members her parents were accustomed to had come back early to help them decorate the room, how could there be no relatives around her when her younger sister slept at home?
Jia Ai still refused to let Jia Lian go, but Jia Lian coaxed her, "I'll pick up my parents, and my third brother will sleep with you." Jia Ying also lowered her body and coaxed her softly, and promised many fun things. The three sisters went back home first on the way, Jia Ying was already half acquainted with Jia Ai, and compared to living with servants, she still liked the company of the third brother.
When Xing Wei finally came back, she saw Jia Ying and Jia Ai sleeping in each other's arms, sleeping sweetly with their heads resting on their heads. She had no time to take off her heavy crown and jewellery, and put on light, homely clothes, sitting by the side of the bed and watching The sleeping faces of a pair of sons and daughters are full of happiness welling up in their hearts.
