Red Chamber Fellows: You Are Not Guilty

In fact, Li Jing also had good news. He did well in the examinations this year. After the emperor learned about it, he personally promoted him to become a bachelor of attendant.That's an errand for walking in front of the imperial court, as long as there are no major mistakes, the future is bright.

I wanted to share the joy with my daughter-in-law first tonight, but looking at the attitude of the old man, I am afraid that he will not let his daughter-in-law go home with him. In addition, Prince Ping has already made people unhappy, so he had to use this to divert the old man's attention.

"Father, there is one more thing to say." Li Jing put down his chopsticks and said.

Seeing his solemnity, everyone gradually stopped talking and waited for the next sentence.Li Jing, who did not expect this effect, felt a little embarrassed, and quickly explained his new errand.

Being promoted is naturally a happy event, and everyone congratulated him and Yingchun respectively.Only Jia Amnesty muttered to himself: "My child, it doesn't feel bad for him to push him around."

That's divine grace.On the one hand, Jia Jing was envious, but on the other hand, he just rolled his eyes at this cousin who didn't know what to do.Others didn't care about this, they toasted Li Jing one after another, and even Congcong from the other side of the screen also ran out, insisting that his uncle "drink the cup to the brim".

As Li Jing expected, Yingchun didn't return to her own house until the first two days of the year, just to take a rest, and went to Li Yi's house again—even though her parents were not in Beijing, her grandmother was still at her uncle's house to take care of her during the New Year. It has to be in one place anyway.

Fortunately, Yingchun is not a hypocritical person, her body is well maintained, and the people around her are capable, and the people of the Li family don't have any demands on her, as long as she laughs and laughs with Mrs. Li.After a lot of hard work, his complexion is still ruddy, and the fetus is sitting firmly.

On the second day of junior high school, Jia Cong came to pick him up early.Jia Amnesty is also not afraid of what people say. He has a cement village in his family, and he replaced the road between several houses with cement pavement early on, and the road was extremely smooth.

Because of this matter, Jing Zhaoyin was about to cry. Also in the capital, only these few roads are paved with cement.When those roads were first paved, his yamen was almost surrounded by people.He also went to the emperor, but the emperor told him that Jia Amnesty paid for the repair of the road, so you can't stop him from doing good deeds, right?

In desperation, he went to Jia Amnesty again.But the reason is that their own cement production is limited, only enough to pave these roads.When it is re-produced next year, we must try our best to supply Jingzhong first.

You have provided it, but what is Jing Zhaoyin's use if he has no money?It's just that they have already paved several roads, so you can't tell them that you have already repaired them anyway, so why not repair all the roads in central Beijing.Jing Zhaoyin had no choice but to leave Dingguo's mansion with a bitter face.

However, inspired by Jia Amnesty, many people who think they are respectable want to repair the road in front of their house. They can't let people say that their family is rich and unkind, and they don't even repair the road in front of their house?It didn't take Jingzhao Yin to worry for a long time, and road construction became a fashion for a while.The roads between many big families have already been connected together.There is nothing wrong with making Jing Zhaoyin happy, and it doesn't count how much money Jia She has made from everyone. Anyway, his performance this year is not bad.

Thanks to the power of the concrete road, the time for returning home in the Spring Festival has been greatly advanced. After greeting each other, we accompanied Mrs. Xing to the Zhang Mansion together, even Mrs. Xing also returned to her natal home.

Zhang's house prepared very grandly, as if it was his own daughter returning home.As soon as Mrs. Xing and the three girls entered the second door, Mrs. Zhang and her daughters-in-law greeted her early: "Why did my sister arrive at this time? Mother has read it several times."

Mrs. Xing gave up Yingchun: "It's not waiting for her. Our master and sister-in-law don't know yet, and we miss our daughter, and we can't let go of the old lady. We must be ready before going out."

Mrs. Zhang was very happy, and said to the daughter-in-law behind her: "Hurry up and help your sister, she is a noble person now."

After entering the room to meet Mrs. Zhang, the old lady just told Yingchun to sit down quickly: "Oh, fortunately my uncle is not here, so I dare to say this. If this child is a girl, it will be my heart."

Mrs. Zhang said with a smile: "Old lady, please keep your voice down. The Duke will bring my uncle here in a while."

It's not that Jia Amnesty has already brought Jia Cong in to greet the old lady.The old lady Zhang didn't care what Li Jing thought: "Even if my uncle blames me, I will say it too. The girl in our family is too precious, and Yingchun is the only one in her life. It is good for a few granddaughters-in-law to spread their branches and leaves, but Why are they all boys? Now that Yingchun is here, she is the only thing I hope for."

Hearing what the old man said was unreasonable, Jia Amnesty hurriedly wanted to change the topic: "Look at what my mother said, I can't hold my great-granddaughter this year, but I will definitely be able to hold my great-granddaughter next year. Lian'er's family has two ready-made ones there."

The old lady thought about it, and quickly smiled: "My spirit is getting shorter and shorter. Today, sister Qiao went back to Sun's house with her mother, and she forgot her sister when she was not with her. Fortunately, she is not with her, otherwise There is a lawsuit."

Everyone in the house naturally laughed, Li Jing was stunned, everyone was looking forward to a son and grandson, only the Zhang family was looking forward to a girl.But it's also strange that Zhang Tong's generation, plus the next generation, unexpectedly gave birth to a male grandson, and the second one was a male grandson.I don't know whether Yingchun's baby is a boy or a girl.Anyway, no matter what it is, it is always my own flesh and blood, just like my father-in-law, it seems good to raise my daughter tender and polite.

When they went to Mrs. Zhang's study, Jia Amnesty asked Zhang Qing, "I see why Mother seems to be quite mentally weak."

Zhang Qing also looked helpless: "I had a minor illness a few years ago, and it took me a while to get over it. My mother is afraid that you have a lot of troubles, so she won't tell you. I just listen to the doctor's words, and I'm afraid I need to pay more attention to maintenance." . Otherwise, how could the marriage with your niece be decided so early?"

But no, March [-]th is Daiyu's big wedding, and Xing Xiuyan's date is set on May [-]th, without even two months in between.It is said that the Zhang family is not such a person, and they don't even give themselves a time to breathe.It turned out that he was also worried about the old lady's body.

Jia Amnesty had no choice but to tell Zhang Qing: "If my mother has another headache, please tell me. Even if I tell a few jokes on the side, it will make the old man feel at ease." Zhang Qing agreed not to mention it. .

After returning from Zhang's house, Jia Amnesty withheld Yingchun again, only saying that they were both young and didn't know anything about child rearing, but Sun Yuan was familiar with it, and she was willing to pass on her experience to her younger sister.

Fortunately, this time even Li Jing asked him to take labor, and together with Ping Junwang, he lived and boarded in Dingguo Duke's mansion, and asked the emperor to make a plan for the academy before the emperor started writing.

Jia Cong heard that the two of them were on an errand, so he wanted to get involved.Sometimes he can ask for advice as a foreign aid from his husband at any time. After joining, Prince Ping and Li Jing both felt a lot more relaxed, and they knew how to pull people around.

When Jia Amnesty found out that Jia Cong was very interested in machinery, not to mention his hands-on ability, he immediately rushed to the guest courtyard where Mr. Shi lived.

At that time, Mr. Shi was playing against Jia Jing, he was uncertain about where to go for a word, and bowed his head in silence.Jia She was able to control the game of watching chess without saying a word, so he simply kept his words in a low-key manner: "I want to keep Cong'er for myself, I won't give it to you."

Mr. Shi still didn't raise his head, he just said: "You don't believe what you say."

Jia Amnesty was so angry that he stretched out his hand and messed up the chess game, and said, "Good boy, what have you taught me. Now I have nothing to do, I will teach myself."

Mr. Shi is not annoyed by letting him disturb the chess game, because he is already at a disadvantage.It’s just that Jia Amnesty questioned the Jia Cong he had educated, but he couldn’t bear it: “What’s wrong with my teaching? Is it a bad plan, or is it that I’m at the bottom of the Imperial Academy?”

Of course not, Jia Amnesty just wanted to take advantage of Mr. Shi's lack of time to play chess and cheat others, but he didn't want to help Mr. Shi instead. He could kill someone without seeing Jia Jing's eyes.

"I don't care about that, it's my son anyway, I want to teach him myself." Deciding to let go, there is no pressure on Jia She.

Mr. Shi asked disdainfully: "You teach? What do you teach, so that they can't even write the charter of an academy?"

Jia Jing nodded his head like a chicken pecking rice, Jia She was dumbfounded.Who would have thought that those two were so stupid, and it took three days to write a charter to complete it with Jia Cong's help, but Mr. Shi won it right.

The wilted Jia Amnesty still didn't give up: "I don't think Cong'er is good at studying literature."

Mr. Shi hated that iron could not be made into steel: "Think about it for yourself, why did you hand over Cong'er to me in the first place, and come and talk to me again."

No, Jia She patted himself on the head, Cong'er was different from King Ping, in the future he was going to support a family by himself, it wasn't that King Ping already had a family.These days, I only think about how to find some good seedlings, but I ignore this matter.

Mr. Shi still didn't let him go, using Jia Jing as a comparison: "Look at your cousin, but he is a person who thinks about worldly affairs, so you can't let him go now? Isn't it just to regain his standing?" Get up. The same goes for Jia Qiang. So you can’t impose your own thoughts on Cong’er. He’s a good boy, and he’s very filial. Naturally, he’ll listen to what you say. But you have to think about his future.”

Jia Amnesty was even more listless, and left the guest house in despair.I also don't want to think about the academy anymore, for fear that I will be labeled by Mr. Shi again.

Fortunately, there are many people in the family now, and people who can heal him can be found everywhere.Seeing that Jia Cong was leading Cong Cong to harm the trees in the yard, he hurried forward to help.He also asked, "What do you want this branch for?"

Jia Cong said: "I want to make a slingshot for Congcong, and I finally found a suitable one. Father, please stick it out for me."

Such a strong hands-on ability, Jia Amnesty can only hold out the branches for others, while looking at his children and sighing. It's a pity, it's a pity.

Cong Cong shouted again: "There is another one, the one next to it."

Jia Amnesty was puzzled: "Why do you want more?"

Cong Cong replied confidently: "It's done, and I can give it to my brother when he is older."

Mrs. Xing was coming out of the house, and when she saw the miserable state of the tree, she sighed: "My tree has finally become a climate, and said that this year I can see both flowers and fruits. Well, which one of you has it offended?"

Jia Cong had already led Cong Cong and ran away, leaving only Jia She to accompany him with a smile: "Kaichun asked them to find a big one to compensate you."
