Going through the Red Mansions quickly means going against the system.

Jia She and Uncle Xing chatted for a while, but the more they chatted, the more speechless they became, and they simply stopped talking.

Uncle Xing was embarrassed and anxious but couldn't find a topic to talk about, so he accompanied him quietly with an uneasy look on his face.

Fortunately, not long after, Mrs. Xing's maid came to treat her to a banquet and said that lunch was ready.

Jia She was impatient to eat alone with Uncle Xing. The two of them had nothing to say and it was too embarrassing, so he asked Mrs. Xing and his sisters to eat together.

"We are all relatives, so there is no need to avoid it."

"That's right. We are all a family anyway, so it doesn't matter. Just ask the sisters to meet their brother-in-law."

Mrs. Xing agreed and gave the order.

The family was reunited, and Jia She was sitting with his hands on his hands.

Uncle Xing breathed a sigh of relief, and didn't care that his brother-in-law was more comfortable in their home than he, the master, and just kept his head down while eating.

On the other hand, Jia She and Mrs. Xing greeted Brother Xing and Sister Xing together to eat and drink freely without being restrained.

Only then did Jia She have time to look at the family carefully.

Needless to say, Mrs. Xing has become accustomed to it these days. She is twenty-three years old and looks bright and gorgeous. Perhaps because Jia She was so kind to her and so confident, she didn't have the legendary smugness about her.

Uncle Xing is twenty years old and looks honest and loyal. Sitting with his sisters, he seemed even more ordinary. It can be seen that the excellent genes of their family have spread to the women.

Second sister Xing is also eighteen years old, and she is gentle and virtuous. In Jia She's eyes, it is the most ordinary. Many of his maids and concubines were such people, so they were not interested.

At the age of fifteen, Little Sister Xing is quite innocent, and she is the one who feels closest to Mrs. Xing as her sister. He even recognized Jia She, the new brother-in-law.

Jia She can completely understand. When their father passed away, Mrs. Xing was just fourteen years old, and Miss Xing was even younger. Perhaps she, lacking her father's love, felt closer to the old Jia She.

Mrs. Xing's mother passed away just after she had fulfilled her father's filial piety. That's why he spent so many years without getting married, and instead took care of the children at home.

Now that they can get the phoenix egg of Jia She, the whole family is very happy, and they don't mind that Jia She is too old.

Especially Mrs. Xing's eldest sister, seeing that Mrs. Xing kept her promise and brought back the family property, she trusted their eldest sister even more.

During the meal, Miss Xing kept paying close attention to Jia She. When she saw that his rice bowl was empty, she quickly asked her servants to add more food.

Although Xing's second sister didn't raise her head very much to avoid suspicion, she often gave advice to her brother, Uncle Xing, and gave Jia Sheman wine and food.

It seems that these two sisters-in-law are more sophisticated than their brothers.

After eating and drinking, Jia She was about to leave.

Although she was supposed to stay there, considering the environment of her home, she couldn't accommodate so many people, so she took Mrs. Xing away on the pretext that she would be busy with official duties tomorrow morning.

This is better than the performance of the original owner, who did not come to the Xing family directly.

On the day of returning home, only Mrs.

"Sit still for a while, I still have something to explain."

When Jia She saw Mrs. Xing's request, he obediently agreed.

But he really didn't want to sit around with Uncle Xing, so he found a servant to take him with him and went out for a walk to eat. Uncle Xing wanted to follow, but he persuaded him to retreat.

"Just in time, brother, please stay. I have something to tell you. Just ask two more servants to follow your brother-in-law."

When Mrs. Xing saw Jia She going out surrounded by four or five servants, she was not too worried and turned around to teach her younger brothers and sisters.

Now the eldest son in the family is married. Even though he has to fill in a house, it is already the best result.

The remaining Xing Dequan has not seen anyone yet, but men are easy to find partners. Now let the news go, a matchmaker will come to your door within two days.

The reason why she chose Jia She as her husband here was because she wanted to leverage the power in his house.

"Now that my marriage has been settled, the only ones left are you."

"Today, you have also met your brother-in-law. He is quite attentive to me. I brought all the Xing family's money back and made up some of it."

Mrs.

"Thank you sister for working so hard for so many years." Ermei Xing immediately responded, taking her brother and sister to thank her together.

"We are a family, there is no need to talk nonsense. You all listen to what I am going to say next."

Seeing everyone responding, he started talking one by one.

"First, brother Dequan's marriage must be arranged as soon as possible. You are not young anymore. You need to start a family as soon as possible. I can help you share the burden."

"Although we have the help of your brother-in-law's family now, you still have to stand up on your own first."

"I have spent so much money on you studying over the years. I can't waste it. If you also know how to read, just ask your brother-in-law to help you find a job. Then you can find a wife who can help you in the future."

Seeing Uncle Xing just nodding stupidly, he could only sigh in his heart.

"But one thing is, you must not use your brother-in-law's influence to do bad things! Otherwise, I will not care about you, and your relatives will not be able to do anything."

"Don't dare, don't dare." Xing Dequan shook his head honestly.

Seeing that her brother had sorted things out, she turned to look at her sisters again.

"Baxi, you have always been a good-natured person."

"I know that you were in love with our neighbor Zhi Geer a few years ago, but his mother never allowed it, and I was blocking you in front, which also delayed you. Now that you are eighteen years old, they Do you have any other explanation?"

Second sister Xing shook her head and said no.

"Then will he marry you or not? If not, I will ask your brother-in-law to choose a good family for you. You are not too old anyway."

Second sister Xing was anxious and said quickly: "Sister, Brother Zhi said he wants to marry me, but I won't marry anyone else!"

Mrs. Xing nodded and said: "Then tell him to come and ask for marriage quickly. If he doesn't ask for marriage within this year, I will make the decision to find someone else for you. Don't make me angry because of this."

Seeing the second sister Xing nodding, she turned to the little sister Xing again.

"Jiu Qing is still young. Although we are not in a hurry, it is time to tell others. It is better to rely on my sister and brother to live a comfortable life on my own."

Seeing my sister nodding obediently, I felt even happier.

"The family's savings, plus the gifts I brought back this time, total one thousand eight hundred taels of silver. We don't have a shop at home, only a few acres of farmland in the suburbs, and I have brought back all the land deeds."

"Your brother-in-law said he would fill my shoes in the future, so I don't want any of this and will leave it all to you to live on."

"That's what I think. My brother will definitely take the lion's share of the dowry when he gets married, so I will leave these one thousand taels and the land for my brother to get a wife. Even if he is short in the future, I can't be asked to fill it in. I didn't get a cent of the dowry. It’s silver.”

Seeing everyone nodding, he continued: "For the remaining 800 taels, if Brother Zhi comes to propose marriage this year, I will ask Baxi to get married with 500 taels of silver."

"The dowry for marrying into an unofficial family like theirs is quite high."

Seeing the surprise on Ermei Xing's face, she added, "Don't tell his family first, test his sincerity first."

"If he sincerely lives with you, this money will be used by our family to sponsor his scientific examination. If he can win the official position, your brother-in-law can also help him. The main thing is to see if he is sincere."

"If not, don't worry, sister, we have something good waiting for us later!"

Second sister Xing was a little shy, but with the confidence given by her sister, she suddenly felt that it was her family's loss that her mother-in-law looked down on her. She originally wanted Brother Zhi's sincerity.

"Don't worry, little sister. If your second sister succeeds here, you will definitely not be allowed to take only three hundred taels of dowry in the future."

"Let's not talk about how much your second sister's family can make up for you. I guarantee that I can make up for you before you get married. If you are lucky, you may be richer than your brother."

Seeing that little sister Xing finally blushed, the whole family laughed together.

Just as he was smiling, he suddenly saw Jia She rushing in quickly. There was something in his arms, and before she could ask, she heard movement in his arms. It turned out to be a little baby.

"Honey, what should I do? I picked up a child!" Jia She's hands were shaking as if they were electrified.

"what?!"
