Jia Min passed away, and Lin Ruhai finally had a chance to get out of his grief. He really didn't know whether to continue to grieve or rejoice.
After Jia Min was buried, Lin Ruhai took his children back to Beijing, entered the Ministry of Rites, and began to live a life of retirement in advance.
The eldest daughter got married, and Daiyu, the twelfth and third son, is now the director of the mansion. As for the second son, he is almost ten years old. Lin Ruhai thought, if it wasn't for paving the way for his son, he really wanted to retire completely.
Thinking of the days of my eldest brother Jia She, I am not only a little envious.Ever since his son Jia Lian got married, he took the opportunity to let Jia Lian take over the title, went to the suburbs of Beijing by himself, built a big hot spring village, and lived a life of idle clouds and wild cranes.
Yingchun is already engaged, and the rest is none of my business.Jia Amnesty thought beautifully, and life naturally became better.
As for Jia Lian's wife, she is naturally a girl from the Zhou family.Although the blood relatives are somewhat close, both the Zhou family and Jia Lian are willing, and Jia She, the father, is embarrassed to disagree.
At any rate, the grandson had already been born, and he was healthy again, which made Jia She heave a sigh of relief.
I often take my grandson to the countryside for a stroll, and then send him back to his parents.Little Zhou was still afraid that her father-in-law would be lonely, so she took her son away.
But Jia Amnesty really didn't have this idea. Only when children grow up with their parents can they be healthy physically and mentally.Besides, he is a big man, so he doesn't know how to take care of children, so let him stay with his parents.
Jia Amnesty didn't mean to take the child away, which really made Little Zhou breathe a sigh of relief.
Although Jia Lian felt sorry for his father, but Jia She didn't want to, what else could he do?
However, whether he himself breathed a sigh of relief, only God knows.
When Jia Amnesty's eldest grandson was three years old, he heard the news that Wang Xifeng had been made a concubine, and it dawned on him that the fate of the Jia family had finally changed completely.
However, the East Mansion did not seem to have made much progress. Even though Jia Jing made some changes, he still went to the Taoist temple outside the city to become a monk. The East Mansion let Jia Zhen take over the position of the third-class general. Here, in the hands of Jia Lian, it is still the title of first-class general.
The third general, Jia Zhen, is more motivated than usual, and she doesn't dare to do anything stupid, but the emperor is a creature that holds grudges very much. When his eldest brother is here, Ningguo Mansion is a die-hard loyalist. The money obtained by Jing's raiding the house can be regarded as filling in, but there is still no good result.
Dongfu can only behave with its tail between its legs. I hope that in the generation of Jia Rong's son, these things will fade away.
After two days of An's birthday, Jia Lian, who had just returned from the yamen, was dragged from the mansion by his father to the Zhuangzi in Gyeonggi.
Seeing my father dressed like a landlord and rich man, he is really leisurely and carefree. Thinking that I have to go to court every day, it is really hard work.
"Father, what's the matter with your son?"
After getting married, Jia Lian's name changed. Before that, he always called him Dad, but now he calls him Father. Both Jia She and Jia Lian felt a little uncomfortable.
"What's the matter? Brat, can't I call you here if I have nothing to do?"
"Father, you also know that I didn't mean that!"
Jia Lian's "You wronged me" expression on Jia Lian's face made the servants around couldn't help laughing, even Jia Amnesty couldn't help it.
"Neng, you can accept these things. Although our family is not well-off, it is not that far."
Hearing that Jia Lian was struggling recently, he wanted to know what his daughter-in-law had said, so it reached Jia Amnesty's ears.
"Father, what is it?"
Jia Lian is also a little curious, his master is the most lazy person, as long as he can live comfortably in daily life, he definitely has no intention of asking for trouble.
"Just look at it and you'll find out."
However, Jia Amnesty played tricks, and was a little babbling.
Jia Lian opened those things with great interest, but who knows, he was shocked.
"Father, father, this, this..."
It turned out to be the deed paper of the well-known "Boguzhai" in Beijing, and there is also the land deed of the [-]-year-old Dazhuangzi. Moreover, the banknotes are worth a little, and after a little weighing, there are almost thirty or forty Zhang's appearance.
"Okay, these are left to me by your great-grandmother. Now, I will hand them over to you. You have to manage them well so that you can live up to her old man's wishes."
Saying this, Jia She's expression was somewhat reminiscent. Speaking of which, Jia She's grandmother really had nothing to say to Jia She. Jia She grew up by her grandmother's side since she was a child. , but in the eyes of the old lady, her eldest grandson is the best grandson in the world.
Therefore, after the old lady passed away, most of the private house was handed over to her grandson. Although Jia She was stupid and filial, but because of his grandmother's pampering, he kept all the things left by his grandmother in his own hands. Mrs. Zhou married in, and the couple became close, so some things were put under Mrs. Zhou's name.
Of course, most of it is still in his own hands.No, it's cheaper for Jia Amnesty.Apart from tossing about Jia's mansion, Jia Amnesty is just tossing about these shops under his own name.
As for those shops in Gongzhong, they were quickly emptied out by Jia She.The Rongguo Mansion became more and more poor, but everyone's life remained unabated, and it became the current state of being unable to make ends meet.
Jia Lian's life became more and more difficult, endured the shame in his heart, and opened his mouth to his wife.
Unexpectedly, his father was so rich, and Jia Lian was moved at the same time, and at the same time, Jia Lian was a little bit complaining. How could his father have the heart to make himself lose face so much?
"Boy, mine is not yours, don't be ignorant, if there is no such thing, how will it be counted when the family is separated in the future?"
"Father? Break up?"
Jia Lian couldn't care about anything else, and asked hastily.
"The old lady is already in her eighties. Naturally, it's the day when there will be a division. Let's take it easy, son."
Although there hasn't been much conflict with Erfang these years, everyone is calm.Jia Zheng still looked depressed. He had been an official for so many years, but he was only a fifth-rank official, and he didn't move his nest at all. He was afraid that in two years, he would retire for the sake of his son's future. .
As for Jia Zhu, even though she read well, she was forced to become a bit pedantic by Jia Zheng. In addition, there was a Yue family who was even more pedantic than Jia Zheng, so she was influenced even more pedantic.
In the future, the future of the Jia clan will be borne by Jia Lian alone. Jia Lian himself is also happy, but Jia Amnesty cannot let his son be so burdened.
The affairs of Jia's house were originally a mess left by him, how could it be handed over to his son?
After all, my father still has nothing to do, it's just suffering.Shaking his head speechlessly, he turned to look at the Boguzhai land deed papers.
"Father, why do you have so much silver? 20 taels."
"All of your father's private house is here, and I will give it to you. I will give it to you. Let's manage it well and save a family fortune for my grandson. I can't let him eat chaff in the future."
Speaking of this, Jia Lian was a little embarrassing. Although he had some advantages in business, he always couldn't find the right way, and he lost a lot.
"Old lady, second brother, let's separate."
Jia Amnesty looked like a rascal, and said to Jia's mother and Jia Zheng.
"I'm not dead yet? You're delusional."
After hearing this, Mother Jia became angry. This son is really...
"Mother, you believe me, it would be better if you hurriedly presided over the division of the family. If one day you really get old, the second younger brother's family will have to take [-]% of the family's property and go out to eat chaff."
"you……"
Mother Jia looked distressed, covering her chest with one hand, and pointing at Jia Amnesty with the other, tremblingly speaking.
"Brother, you... oh..."
"Okay, second child, I've been supporting your second room with a dozen or so people for so many years, and it's quite interesting, don't make a fuss about it, think about the future of Zhu'er, Baoyu, and your two bastards. Just open your mouth."
When Jia Zheng heard this, he really shut up.However, he still looked very sad.
"Okay, you go back first, let me think about it."
Mother Jia was exhausted, she drove away Jia Amnesty, leaving Jia Zheng behind, the mother and son were muttering something, anyway, the lights of Rongqing Hall were on for a long time...
After two or three days, Mother Jia finally sent her servants to invite the boss. Jia Amnesty was waving a folding fan in his hand in winter, which was really weird.
But everyone knows that the old man loves fans the most, after all these years, it's not surprising.
"Old lady, is there something wrong with finding your son?"
Jia Amnesty acted like nothing happened, which really worried Jia's mother a lot.
"Since you mentioned the separation of the family, then naturally there is a charter?"
"Oh, no, that's all I'm saying. If my mother doesn't agree, then forget it."
"It's better to divide. The family is big and the business is big. It's not a problem to separate as soon as possible."
After pondering for a while, Mother Jia said in a deep voice, but her complexion was very bad.This division of the family is still the second son that he loves the most, so he naturally feels uncomfortable in his heart.
"Boss, the burden on the second child is heavy, you can't let it go?"
"It's natural, no matter what, my second child and I are also brothers, right?"
Jia Amnesty laughed, but it wasn't entirely because of the words of Jia's mother. He and Jia Zheng, although the family relationship has been weak these years, they lived in peace. Otherwise, I'm afraid that the reputation of my house will be bad, and it will affect my son's future in the future.
Since he said so, Mother Jia is naturally happy, and Jia Zheng is also willing to split up the family. Living together in this mansion always makes people feel aggrieved and panic. He is also a grandson, no matter what There is still freedom.
"Mother, don't worry, even if the son is separated in the future, he will still respect his mother as he used to."
"Okay, okay, my son, since you have such thoughts, I will be happy even if I die."
What she said was really unknown, Brother Jia She hurriedly persuaded her.The matter of family separation has been settled, but it can't be carried out immediately.
Jia Zheng's future residence can be regarded as a big problem. Jia's mother can't feel wronged that her son and those poor people move to the private alleys of the two prefectures.
It's a good idea to find a big house, especially Jia Zheng has four sons, and now only one Jia Zhu is married.The remaining son, Baoyu, is not only the old lady's favorite, but Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang also love this son very much.
The other two concubines, Jia Zheng, didn't take much care of them. All affairs were left to his wife to take care of them. However, the two of them are studying at home now, and their grades are pretty good.
Jia Amnesty thought for a while, then nodded in agreement, it really is so, it cannot be ignored.
"Well, half a year is enough. Let the second brother find a new house, and then the new house needs to be repaired. Half a year is enough."
Hearing that they can still buffer for so long, both Jia Mu and Jia Zheng breathed a sigh of relief. They really can't be hasty, and they have to live in the future, they really can't be sloppy.
Now that the three of them had reached an agreement, they naturally dispersed separately.Especially Jia She, who was really too lazy to deal with Jia Mu, so he went back to his yard.
Now Xiao Zhou is in charge of the family. Although Second Sister Jia still lives in her elder brother's house, she doesn't go out much except for her own family's entertainment on weekdays. As a widow, she really has no chance to go out.
Hearing his son say that he will be able to leave next year, Second Sister Jia was very happy, thinking that her son is so promising now, he is really a big brother TOEFL, so she made a whole set of clothes by herself and gave it to Jia She.
Sure enough, Jia Amnesty was very happy, but let the girl stop worrying, he still has less clothes?
Half a year later, after spending huge sums of money, Jia Zheng finally repaired his four-entry house, and spent all of Rongguo Mansion's property.
Seeing that Jia Amnesty had no intention of objecting, Mother Jia felt guilty towards her eldest son for the first time.
On this day, brothers Zhou Mengxing from Jia Amnesty's Yue family, Prince Teng from Jia Zheng's Yue family, Mrs. Shi's natal nephew, and two Marquis Shi, Jia Zhen, the patriarch of the Jia family, and Jia Jing, the old patriarch who practiced in a Taoist temple, gathered in Rongxi. Tang, just waiting for the division of Jia's family.
No one is surprised that the Jia She brothers want to split up. These years, they are all insiders, and Jia She has done enough.
The rest belonged to Jia's second wife. Jia Amnesty took his son Jia Lian to entertain relatives. Jia Zheng also had four sons. They followed the elder brother and looked at this person, thinking that the second wife's life would be similar in the future. Where to go.
Mother Jia was a little sad. She sat on the top and looked at the children and grandchildren on the ground, which made her feel better.
"The family is big, the business is big, the population is large, and there are many branches and vines, so it will naturally branch. Today, the patriarch and relatives are invited to witness the separation of our two families."
After everyone exchanged pleasantries, Jia Amnesty, as the head of the family, spoke up.When Jia Zheng heard this, he also nodded in praise.
Now, everyone knew that Jia Zheng himself was willing to separate the family, and Wang Ziteng and the two masters of the Shi family breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's natural, Enhou can rest assured."
With Jia Jing present, there was naturally no room for Jia Zhen to speak.Looking at his father, Jia Zhen lowered her head very much. Yesterday, after his father entered the house, he picked up the ruler and whipped himself. Right now, his back hurts so badly.
"According to the rules, the eldest family inherits [-]%, and the second family inherits [-]%. But the second family has a lot of money and has many descendants, so it can't be done like this."
After listening to his words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. If Jia Zheng really got [-]% of the family property, it would be a sad day.
"En Hou benevolent, this is well known."
Wang Ziteng stroked his beard and said approvingly.Everyone nodded in agreement.
"Well, this is the account book of the mansion, Second Brother, take a look."
When Jia Zheng heard the words, he didn't think much, picked up a general ledger, and began to check carefully.This is related to my future life, but I have to be strict.
But the more he looked at it, the more ugly Jia Zheng's complexion became, and there was a faint embarrassment.Everyone looked at him with a strange expression.
What's the matter?
"Brother, don't look at it, it's what the elder brother says."
Jia Zhenglue put down the account book with some embarrassment, and said to Jia Amnesty.
"Well, Zhu'er, do you want to take a look? You are the eldest son of the second room, and you will take on the burden of the family in the future. It is time for you and Lian'er to know many things. Lian'er and Zhu'er each Check it out."
Having said that, Jia Lian and Jia Zhu stepped forward, each picked up the account books, and flipped through them slightly.Although I knew something about the situation, I really didn't expect that the mansion had already reached this field. Thinking about the days before, when my father used the money from the public to buy a new house, Jia Zhu's face became more ashamed, but Jia Lian has a peaceful attitude.
Looking at the situation of the Erfang father and son, everyone can guess how much.But for a moment, he didn't know whether to lament Jia She's kindness or laugh at him for being stupid.
"Since this is the case, then we will start to divide. The house we live in and the old house in Jinling are both ancestral properties, and there is no distinction according to the world. The rest, whether it is calligraphy, painting or antiques, are divided equally. The rest The next ones are the two Zhuangzi in Jinling, one is in the hands of younger siblings, the other is in the hands of Lian'er, and there are two shops in Jinling. The house, two farms, and five shops are all the property of the public. Besides, there is only cash left. Because our family has paid off the debts of the treasury, there is not much cash in the house. 15 taels."
"Brother, since it is in the hands of the Wang family, then the two farms and the two houses in Jinling should be assigned to our second room, and the other big brothers can just look at it."
Jia Zheng held the tea, handed it to Jia Amnesty, and said.
"Yes, if you like it yourself, and the business over there is well established, then I have no problem. But, second brother, you have to send your slaves to visit there from time to time, so as not to be deceived by the slaves. Our mansion You also know the situation in the past few years."
Feeling slightly uneasy, Jia She nagged a few more words.
"Well, I see, thank you, brother."
Jia Zheng was a little moved. In the past, he was afraid that he had blamed his elder brother by mistake. Looking at him like this, how could he be selfish?
Behind the screen, the female family members held their breath and listened to the narration in front of them calmly, listening to Jia Amnesty's disposition, which was fair.Mother Jia finally let out a long sigh of relief. It's not easy to be too partial to the younger son on the surface. Fortunately, the eldest son is a filial and filial son.
At this moment, Mother Jia's heart is full of how sensible her eldest son is, which is really dumbfounding.Only Mrs. Wang, the handkerchief in her hand was clenched a little bit, and her face was also a little stiff. It really looked a little weird, and the little Mrs. Zhou on the side looked straight at it.
"According to my opinion, two of the three small houses in Beijing are for the second brother. You have a large population, and you will have to buy a house when you divide the family in the future. What do you think?"
"It's doable."
Having just read the house deeds, Jia Zheng knew that those houses were in the inner city, and the geographical location was very rare. If the second house were to be separated in the future, the children would live nearer.
"The rest are two farms and five shops."
"One share for each person in the farm, there is no entanglement. There are three in the long house of the shop, and two in yours. It is equivalent to the house just now. What do you think of the second brother?"
His family division was actually very fair, and Jia Zheng himself had no objections.
The people who sat beside him were naturally very satisfied. They really didn't expect that Gong She is actually a kind person.
Even the treacherous and cunning Wang Ziteng had a look of emotion on his face, he had misjudged the wrong person in the past?
"Brothers and sisters, do you think this is good?"
Jia Amnesty was a little worried, raised his voice slightly, and asked across the screen.
"Okay, everything is according to the uncle's words."
Mrs. Wang replied immediately, since the second and second couple had no objection, and Jia's mother didn't object aloud, then there is no room for outsiders to speak.
"Since this is the case, then Zhu Er, you and Lian Er brothers go to draw lots, and the antique calligraphy and paintings that were not mentioned just now are all on the table, so grab whatever you grab, and you won't regret it in the future. "
After Jia Amnesty finished speaking, he sat down, picked up the teacup, and began to quench his thirst.Having said so much, my mouth is so dry.
Although the two cousins Jia Zhu and Jia Lian have not been close these years, they still maintained a peaceful face. When they heard the words, they stood up hastily.Seeing that the elders had no other orders, they went to the front table.
There is a shop, a farm, a shop, and antique calligraphy and paintings, all of which are balls of calligraphy, which are randomly grasped in the hands.
After that, the treasury was opened to divide things.The matter here was settled, Jia's mansion naturally held a banquet, not only to entertain the in-laws, but also to be the last reunion banquet with the second room.
As long as Jia's mother thinks that the second room will be separated in the future, and that she can no longer be married, she feels very uncomfortable.It's a pity that now that the overall situation has been settled, she can only feel aggrieved when she sees her young son who is so excited.
Half a month later, Jia Zheng moved to a new house with Jia Musai's private house money and his family's family members.
Although Jia Amnesty didn't go to eat wine to warm up the house, Jia Lian, the head of the first-class general's mansion, showed up. This made the dignitaries in Beijing have to weigh one or two. Although Jia's mansion has been separated, But the long room still protects the second room.
Everyone's perception of Jia She and his son has improved a bit.
Thinking of his father's explanation, Jia Lian hid the sarcasm from the corner of his mouth, followed behind his cousin, and worked harder to entertain the guests.
After this day of tossing, I am really about to toss my old bones.Little Zhou also felt sorry for her husband, pinching his shoulders and beating his back, sweating profusely.
"Don't be so busy, be careful to get tired again."
Little Zhou loves herself so much, how could she bear to let his wife serve her?Hastily pulling her to lie in his arms, looking at the rosy glow on Little Zhou's face, Jia Lian felt very satisfied.
At the beginning, because I wanted to show sincerity to my uncle's family, I didn't have anyone in the room.Whether it was a girl sent by the old lady or arranged by the second aunt, my father took care of it.He didn't think so at first, but now, he is really grateful to his father.
Thinking of the three concubines and two concubines in the cousin's house, I couldn't help but tremble.
His wife is beautiful and gentle, what else can he not be satisfied with?Jia Lian never thought about whether he guarded Xiao Zhou wholeheartedly because of his feelings for beating the child or because of Xiao Zhou's appearance.
For Jia Lian, such a thankless task is asking for trouble.
"Grandpa, do you think the division of the family by the master is sincere?"
Little Zhou asked after a long while, not because she guessed and criticized the elders, but because this uncle and father-in-law is really puzzling.
"You don't care, as long as the master is happy."
Jia Lian didn't have any other thoughts at all. He was very clear about his father's temperament. There must be someone behind him. Otherwise, it would be no wonder that he could separate the family so happily according to his temperament.
Thinking about it this way, Jia Lian let go of all his thoughts. Besides, his father's private house is rich, and he only has a son like himself. Isn't all these things in the future all his own?
Jia Lian became more and more calm, beauty comes first, who cares about those cold things?
Soon, Little Zhou lost all reason to speculate on her father-in-law's thoughts, and her mind became a mess.
Because of Jia She's taking care of the second wife, Jia's mother has liked the eldest son quite a lot these days.Furthermore, she was old and felt lonely, so she often sent someone to call Jia She to Rongqing Hall, and the mother and son talked about the old days, which was considered to pass the time.
But even so, Jia Mu's private house is still decreasing day by day.She is getting older, her memory is not as good as before, and her energy is not as good as before. Many things are taken care of by her former servant...
The 83-year-old Jia Mu finally came to the end of her life, and her eldest grandson, Baoyu, who had always been the most valued, got married.
Jia She took his brother and son with him, and his nephews began to live in mourning.Regarding the matter of the old lady being partial to the second bedroom and leaving most of her private house to the second bedroom, neither Jia Amnesty nor Jia Lian had any idea, death is nothing, and besides, it belongs to the old lady, whoever she likes to give it to Just give it to anyone, there is no shortage of such ideas in their house.
It's a pity that the relatives who came and went felt that the second room was too thick-skinned, and the first room was too generous.
Only Mrs. Wang, who is in charge of the affairs of the second room, has troubles and can't tell, so she can only respond to other people's words with a stiff smile.
The old lady's children were filial, and even the married daughters went back to the house for the funeral. Only the old lady's own daughter, Jia Min, passed away early. However, the son-in-law Lin Ruhai also came to the house with his son. He has also maintained his relationship with Jia's mansion, especially with the long house.
Lin Ruhai was completely old the year before last, and now he is living a very leisurely life. Like his uncle, he set up a hot spring village outside the city, and lives in Gyeonggi from time to time, and doesn't often go back to his home.
He wouldn't admit that his early retirement was stimulated by his eldest brother's comfortable life.The eldest brother is obviously much older than him, but he looks like he is the same age as him, or even a few years younger, which makes Lin Ruhai a lot of stimulation.
Only Jia Zheng did not give up on his official career, but this time, his mother died, and he wanted Ding You, fearing that it would not be easy for him to recover in the future.
These are all gossips. The old lady died, and the Jia family began a three-year mourning period, but Jia Lian quickly recovered after a hundred days.
The official was promoted to the fourth rank, entered the household department, and began his busy days of heel knocking.After Jia Zhu observed the funeral obediently, he pursued a career in politics and was released from Beijing.He followed the Li family's path, so he naturally wanted to bring his wife and children with him.
Although Wang was unhappy, her son was important, so she endured her displeasure, packed up Li Wan and Jia Lan, and let her son take them away.
Fortunately, there are still Baoyu and his wife by his side. As for Jia Huan and Jia Cong, they have to wait until they have achieved fame before they can marry each other.
Although Xiangyun, the grandnephew of the old lady's natal family whom Baoyu married, was an orphan without father or mother, the old lady took pity on her, and she and Baoyu also had a childhood affection, so they made the decision.
Jia Zheng also strongly agreed with this matter. The historian only had such a prostitute, so Baoyu's official career would naturally be wider in the future.
Although Mrs. Wang wanted to talk about her niece Baochai, neither her sister nor her brother-in-law wanted to let go. Mrs. Wang still disliked Baochai's low background, but she still looked down on her son. The annoyed Wang gradually cut off contact with Jinling.
Xue Ning married his daughter to the wealthy Fang family in Jinling, who was also a well-educated family, so it was a good time to help his son.
three years later
"Father, what do you mean?"
"I want to take my grandson back to Jinling to worship the ancestors!"
Although Jia Amnesty was still in good health, he had the trembling appearance of an old man, which actually bluffed a lot of people.
"Father, let's give birth to some children. After a few years, the weather will be warmer. I want to take leave from the Yamen and take you and your eldest grandson to Jinling, okay?"
"Hmph, I don't want you to accompany me. I'll just take my grandson with me."
Jia Amnesty was out of temper, the older he got, the more he would not listen to persuasion and would do the opposite.
"Father, or just follow the grandfather."
Jia Lian's eldest son, Jia Mao, said to his father that he really felt sorry for his father. The outcome of this battle was very obvious, and his father must have lost.
"You stinky boy, don't think that you can tell me what to do in front of your father once you are a juren."
Towards his son, Jia Lian has always been a strict father. In fact, the father spoiled the brat to no end. If he hadn't been behind him, who knows what would have happened.
"Hmph, if you want to play prestige, don't come here and scare my grandson, I won't obey!"
Jia Amnesty's face was sullen, and he really couldn't understand Jia Lian's cold face towards his children in the past. He was not one of those weird fathers, so why did he raise such a son?
Jia Amnesty really couldn't figure it out.
"Ouch, my dear father, take it easy and don't flinch again."
Jia Lian couldn't bear to see Jia She's trembling with his crutches up, so he hurried forward two steps, so as not to tire his father any more.
"I don't need you to be good, I just inform you that next month I will take my eldest grandson out of Beijing to worship the ancestors."
Jia Lian couldn't laugh or cry when he heard the words, it's already 25, how many days until next month?
"It's better not to be in such a hurry. Luggage, boats, you have to arrange it well."
Jia Lian couldn't hold back his father, so he had to agree, but at this time, it still has to be delayed. He should go and ask the emperor for leave. He really can't rest assured that his father is old enough to travel like this.
Jia Amnesty was a little complacent in his heart, and he agreed with some disapproval on his face.
Jia Lian asked for leave and wanted to accompany his father back to his hometown to worship the ancestors. The emperor thought about it and granted a half-year vacation.
The whole family wanted to leave, so naturally it was not easy to leave. After half a month of tossing, Jia She and his party finally set off.
When they arrived in Jinling, Jia Zheng brought his youngest son Jia Cong to the ancestral home. He really missed seeing his elder brother for so long.
The life of the second house of Jia's family is really difficult, poor management, many descendants, and little financial left after the separation.
After Jia amnesty helped several times, Jia Zheng couldn't speak to his brother brazenly anymore.After retiring, he took his youngest son Jia Cong back to Jinling. As for the other three sons, they all separated. Only Jia Cong, for various reasons, has not yet married or entered an official position.After returning to Jinling, he entered ethnology and lived by teaching the clansmen.
What a tight day!
After sending Jia Zheng away, Jia Amnesty smiled happily and vomited everything he ate.Thinking about the big house in Jia Zhengjing, didn't it fall into his own hands in the end, hmph, really don't get mad, think of yourself as Mickey Mouse?
Although he smiled strangely, Jia Lian and his son could see through Jia Amnesty's meaning at a glance. They were really benevolent to the second room. Jia Lian only regarded them as ordinary clansmen and didn't pay much attention to them.
After Jia Amnesty came back, many clansmen came to the door to curry favor, to tease the autumn wind, to make connections, and there was no free time all day long.
Only Mrs. Wang was the only one who didn't come to the door.Looking at her somewhat worn clothes, Wang sighed, turned around and went to the back room, picked up a needle and thread, and began to make clothes.
I don't know how Baoyu is now?
Mrs. Wang was still thinking about it, she should embroider well, and after this month's task was handed in, she would be able to save enough money, and it would be serious to send someone to Baoyu.
Thinking of Baoyu who was suffering in the Hanlin Academy, Wang's heart was pierced like a knife, and he regretted that he should not have been so greedy for cheap, if not, Baoyu still has someone to take care of him now.
Baoyu, whom Wang was thinking of, was tired of the strife in the officialdom, and resigned angrily.He only regretted it when he looked at his wife who was waiting for Lumi to cook.It's a pity, it's too late to regret!
Even if there is no "Baoyu" and nothing extraordinary, Baoyu's temperament has not changed much. It is really hard for him to be forced by his father and brother to be admitted as an official in the Imperial Academy.
Baoyu and his wife had no choice but to sell their property, rent a boat, go south to Jinling, and join their parents...
The author has something to say: This story is over
After Jia Min was buried, Lin Ruhai took his children back to Beijing, entered the Ministry of Rites, and began to live a life of retirement in advance.
The eldest daughter got married, and Daiyu, the twelfth and third son, is now the director of the mansion. As for the second son, he is almost ten years old. Lin Ruhai thought, if it wasn't for paving the way for his son, he really wanted to retire completely.
Thinking of the days of my eldest brother Jia She, I am not only a little envious.Ever since his son Jia Lian got married, he took the opportunity to let Jia Lian take over the title, went to the suburbs of Beijing by himself, built a big hot spring village, and lived a life of idle clouds and wild cranes.
Yingchun is already engaged, and the rest is none of my business.Jia Amnesty thought beautifully, and life naturally became better.
As for Jia Lian's wife, she is naturally a girl from the Zhou family.Although the blood relatives are somewhat close, both the Zhou family and Jia Lian are willing, and Jia She, the father, is embarrassed to disagree.
At any rate, the grandson had already been born, and he was healthy again, which made Jia She heave a sigh of relief.
I often take my grandson to the countryside for a stroll, and then send him back to his parents.Little Zhou was still afraid that her father-in-law would be lonely, so she took her son away.
But Jia Amnesty really didn't have this idea. Only when children grow up with their parents can they be healthy physically and mentally.Besides, he is a big man, so he doesn't know how to take care of children, so let him stay with his parents.
Jia Amnesty didn't mean to take the child away, which really made Little Zhou breathe a sigh of relief.
Although Jia Lian felt sorry for his father, but Jia She didn't want to, what else could he do?
However, whether he himself breathed a sigh of relief, only God knows.
When Jia Amnesty's eldest grandson was three years old, he heard the news that Wang Xifeng had been made a concubine, and it dawned on him that the fate of the Jia family had finally changed completely.
However, the East Mansion did not seem to have made much progress. Even though Jia Jing made some changes, he still went to the Taoist temple outside the city to become a monk. The East Mansion let Jia Zhen take over the position of the third-class general. Here, in the hands of Jia Lian, it is still the title of first-class general.
The third general, Jia Zhen, is more motivated than usual, and she doesn't dare to do anything stupid, but the emperor is a creature that holds grudges very much. When his eldest brother is here, Ningguo Mansion is a die-hard loyalist. The money obtained by Jing's raiding the house can be regarded as filling in, but there is still no good result.
Dongfu can only behave with its tail between its legs. I hope that in the generation of Jia Rong's son, these things will fade away.
After two days of An's birthday, Jia Lian, who had just returned from the yamen, was dragged from the mansion by his father to the Zhuangzi in Gyeonggi.
Seeing my father dressed like a landlord and rich man, he is really leisurely and carefree. Thinking that I have to go to court every day, it is really hard work.
"Father, what's the matter with your son?"
After getting married, Jia Lian's name changed. Before that, he always called him Dad, but now he calls him Father. Both Jia She and Jia Lian felt a little uncomfortable.
"What's the matter? Brat, can't I call you here if I have nothing to do?"
"Father, you also know that I didn't mean that!"
Jia Lian's "You wronged me" expression on Jia Lian's face made the servants around couldn't help laughing, even Jia Amnesty couldn't help it.
"Neng, you can accept these things. Although our family is not well-off, it is not that far."
Hearing that Jia Lian was struggling recently, he wanted to know what his daughter-in-law had said, so it reached Jia Amnesty's ears.
"Father, what is it?"
Jia Lian is also a little curious, his master is the most lazy person, as long as he can live comfortably in daily life, he definitely has no intention of asking for trouble.
"Just look at it and you'll find out."
However, Jia Amnesty played tricks, and was a little babbling.
Jia Lian opened those things with great interest, but who knows, he was shocked.
"Father, father, this, this..."
It turned out to be the deed paper of the well-known "Boguzhai" in Beijing, and there is also the land deed of the [-]-year-old Dazhuangzi. Moreover, the banknotes are worth a little, and after a little weighing, there are almost thirty or forty Zhang's appearance.
"Okay, these are left to me by your great-grandmother. Now, I will hand them over to you. You have to manage them well so that you can live up to her old man's wishes."
Saying this, Jia She's expression was somewhat reminiscent. Speaking of which, Jia She's grandmother really had nothing to say to Jia She. Jia She grew up by her grandmother's side since she was a child. , but in the eyes of the old lady, her eldest grandson is the best grandson in the world.
Therefore, after the old lady passed away, most of the private house was handed over to her grandson. Although Jia She was stupid and filial, but because of his grandmother's pampering, he kept all the things left by his grandmother in his own hands. Mrs. Zhou married in, and the couple became close, so some things were put under Mrs. Zhou's name.
Of course, most of it is still in his own hands.No, it's cheaper for Jia Amnesty.Apart from tossing about Jia's mansion, Jia Amnesty is just tossing about these shops under his own name.
As for those shops in Gongzhong, they were quickly emptied out by Jia She.The Rongguo Mansion became more and more poor, but everyone's life remained unabated, and it became the current state of being unable to make ends meet.
Jia Lian's life became more and more difficult, endured the shame in his heart, and opened his mouth to his wife.
Unexpectedly, his father was so rich, and Jia Lian was moved at the same time, and at the same time, Jia Lian was a little bit complaining. How could his father have the heart to make himself lose face so much?
"Boy, mine is not yours, don't be ignorant, if there is no such thing, how will it be counted when the family is separated in the future?"
"Father? Break up?"
Jia Lian couldn't care about anything else, and asked hastily.
"The old lady is already in her eighties. Naturally, it's the day when there will be a division. Let's take it easy, son."
Although there hasn't been much conflict with Erfang these years, everyone is calm.Jia Zheng still looked depressed. He had been an official for so many years, but he was only a fifth-rank official, and he didn't move his nest at all. He was afraid that in two years, he would retire for the sake of his son's future. .
As for Jia Zhu, even though she read well, she was forced to become a bit pedantic by Jia Zheng. In addition, there was a Yue family who was even more pedantic than Jia Zheng, so she was influenced even more pedantic.
In the future, the future of the Jia clan will be borne by Jia Lian alone. Jia Lian himself is also happy, but Jia Amnesty cannot let his son be so burdened.
The affairs of Jia's house were originally a mess left by him, how could it be handed over to his son?
After all, my father still has nothing to do, it's just suffering.Shaking his head speechlessly, he turned to look at the Boguzhai land deed papers.
"Father, why do you have so much silver? 20 taels."
"All of your father's private house is here, and I will give it to you. I will give it to you. Let's manage it well and save a family fortune for my grandson. I can't let him eat chaff in the future."
Speaking of this, Jia Lian was a little embarrassing. Although he had some advantages in business, he always couldn't find the right way, and he lost a lot.
"Old lady, second brother, let's separate."
Jia Amnesty looked like a rascal, and said to Jia's mother and Jia Zheng.
"I'm not dead yet? You're delusional."
After hearing this, Mother Jia became angry. This son is really...
"Mother, you believe me, it would be better if you hurriedly presided over the division of the family. If one day you really get old, the second younger brother's family will have to take [-]% of the family's property and go out to eat chaff."
"you……"
Mother Jia looked distressed, covering her chest with one hand, and pointing at Jia Amnesty with the other, tremblingly speaking.
"Brother, you... oh..."
"Okay, second child, I've been supporting your second room with a dozen or so people for so many years, and it's quite interesting, don't make a fuss about it, think about the future of Zhu'er, Baoyu, and your two bastards. Just open your mouth."
When Jia Zheng heard this, he really shut up.However, he still looked very sad.
"Okay, you go back first, let me think about it."
Mother Jia was exhausted, she drove away Jia Amnesty, leaving Jia Zheng behind, the mother and son were muttering something, anyway, the lights of Rongqing Hall were on for a long time...
After two or three days, Mother Jia finally sent her servants to invite the boss. Jia Amnesty was waving a folding fan in his hand in winter, which was really weird.
But everyone knows that the old man loves fans the most, after all these years, it's not surprising.
"Old lady, is there something wrong with finding your son?"
Jia Amnesty acted like nothing happened, which really worried Jia's mother a lot.
"Since you mentioned the separation of the family, then naturally there is a charter?"
"Oh, no, that's all I'm saying. If my mother doesn't agree, then forget it."
"It's better to divide. The family is big and the business is big. It's not a problem to separate as soon as possible."
After pondering for a while, Mother Jia said in a deep voice, but her complexion was very bad.This division of the family is still the second son that he loves the most, so he naturally feels uncomfortable in his heart.
"Boss, the burden on the second child is heavy, you can't let it go?"
"It's natural, no matter what, my second child and I are also brothers, right?"
Jia Amnesty laughed, but it wasn't entirely because of the words of Jia's mother. He and Jia Zheng, although the family relationship has been weak these years, they lived in peace. Otherwise, I'm afraid that the reputation of my house will be bad, and it will affect my son's future in the future.
Since he said so, Mother Jia is naturally happy, and Jia Zheng is also willing to split up the family. Living together in this mansion always makes people feel aggrieved and panic. He is also a grandson, no matter what There is still freedom.
"Mother, don't worry, even if the son is separated in the future, he will still respect his mother as he used to."
"Okay, okay, my son, since you have such thoughts, I will be happy even if I die."
What she said was really unknown, Brother Jia She hurriedly persuaded her.The matter of family separation has been settled, but it can't be carried out immediately.
Jia Zheng's future residence can be regarded as a big problem. Jia's mother can't feel wronged that her son and those poor people move to the private alleys of the two prefectures.
It's a good idea to find a big house, especially Jia Zheng has four sons, and now only one Jia Zhu is married.The remaining son, Baoyu, is not only the old lady's favorite, but Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang also love this son very much.
The other two concubines, Jia Zheng, didn't take much care of them. All affairs were left to his wife to take care of them. However, the two of them are studying at home now, and their grades are pretty good.
Jia Amnesty thought for a while, then nodded in agreement, it really is so, it cannot be ignored.
"Well, half a year is enough. Let the second brother find a new house, and then the new house needs to be repaired. Half a year is enough."
Hearing that they can still buffer for so long, both Jia Mu and Jia Zheng breathed a sigh of relief. They really can't be hasty, and they have to live in the future, they really can't be sloppy.
Now that the three of them had reached an agreement, they naturally dispersed separately.Especially Jia She, who was really too lazy to deal with Jia Mu, so he went back to his yard.
Now Xiao Zhou is in charge of the family. Although Second Sister Jia still lives in her elder brother's house, she doesn't go out much except for her own family's entertainment on weekdays. As a widow, she really has no chance to go out.
Hearing his son say that he will be able to leave next year, Second Sister Jia was very happy, thinking that her son is so promising now, he is really a big brother TOEFL, so she made a whole set of clothes by herself and gave it to Jia She.
Sure enough, Jia Amnesty was very happy, but let the girl stop worrying, he still has less clothes?
Half a year later, after spending huge sums of money, Jia Zheng finally repaired his four-entry house, and spent all of Rongguo Mansion's property.
Seeing that Jia Amnesty had no intention of objecting, Mother Jia felt guilty towards her eldest son for the first time.
On this day, brothers Zhou Mengxing from Jia Amnesty's Yue family, Prince Teng from Jia Zheng's Yue family, Mrs. Shi's natal nephew, and two Marquis Shi, Jia Zhen, the patriarch of the Jia family, and Jia Jing, the old patriarch who practiced in a Taoist temple, gathered in Rongxi. Tang, just waiting for the division of Jia's family.
No one is surprised that the Jia She brothers want to split up. These years, they are all insiders, and Jia She has done enough.
The rest belonged to Jia's second wife. Jia Amnesty took his son Jia Lian to entertain relatives. Jia Zheng also had four sons. They followed the elder brother and looked at this person, thinking that the second wife's life would be similar in the future. Where to go.
Mother Jia was a little sad. She sat on the top and looked at the children and grandchildren on the ground, which made her feel better.
"The family is big, the business is big, the population is large, and there are many branches and vines, so it will naturally branch. Today, the patriarch and relatives are invited to witness the separation of our two families."
After everyone exchanged pleasantries, Jia Amnesty, as the head of the family, spoke up.When Jia Zheng heard this, he also nodded in praise.
Now, everyone knew that Jia Zheng himself was willing to separate the family, and Wang Ziteng and the two masters of the Shi family breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's natural, Enhou can rest assured."
With Jia Jing present, there was naturally no room for Jia Zhen to speak.Looking at his father, Jia Zhen lowered her head very much. Yesterday, after his father entered the house, he picked up the ruler and whipped himself. Right now, his back hurts so badly.
"According to the rules, the eldest family inherits [-]%, and the second family inherits [-]%. But the second family has a lot of money and has many descendants, so it can't be done like this."
After listening to his words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. If Jia Zheng really got [-]% of the family property, it would be a sad day.
"En Hou benevolent, this is well known."
Wang Ziteng stroked his beard and said approvingly.Everyone nodded in agreement.
"Well, this is the account book of the mansion, Second Brother, take a look."
When Jia Zheng heard the words, he didn't think much, picked up a general ledger, and began to check carefully.This is related to my future life, but I have to be strict.
But the more he looked at it, the more ugly Jia Zheng's complexion became, and there was a faint embarrassment.Everyone looked at him with a strange expression.
What's the matter?
"Brother, don't look at it, it's what the elder brother says."
Jia Zhenglue put down the account book with some embarrassment, and said to Jia Amnesty.
"Well, Zhu'er, do you want to take a look? You are the eldest son of the second room, and you will take on the burden of the family in the future. It is time for you and Lian'er to know many things. Lian'er and Zhu'er each Check it out."
Having said that, Jia Lian and Jia Zhu stepped forward, each picked up the account books, and flipped through them slightly.Although I knew something about the situation, I really didn't expect that the mansion had already reached this field. Thinking about the days before, when my father used the money from the public to buy a new house, Jia Zhu's face became more ashamed, but Jia Lian has a peaceful attitude.
Looking at the situation of the Erfang father and son, everyone can guess how much.But for a moment, he didn't know whether to lament Jia She's kindness or laugh at him for being stupid.
"Since this is the case, then we will start to divide. The house we live in and the old house in Jinling are both ancestral properties, and there is no distinction according to the world. The rest, whether it is calligraphy, painting or antiques, are divided equally. The rest The next ones are the two Zhuangzi in Jinling, one is in the hands of younger siblings, the other is in the hands of Lian'er, and there are two shops in Jinling. The house, two farms, and five shops are all the property of the public. Besides, there is only cash left. Because our family has paid off the debts of the treasury, there is not much cash in the house. 15 taels."
"Brother, since it is in the hands of the Wang family, then the two farms and the two houses in Jinling should be assigned to our second room, and the other big brothers can just look at it."
Jia Zheng held the tea, handed it to Jia Amnesty, and said.
"Yes, if you like it yourself, and the business over there is well established, then I have no problem. But, second brother, you have to send your slaves to visit there from time to time, so as not to be deceived by the slaves. Our mansion You also know the situation in the past few years."
Feeling slightly uneasy, Jia She nagged a few more words.
"Well, I see, thank you, brother."
Jia Zheng was a little moved. In the past, he was afraid that he had blamed his elder brother by mistake. Looking at him like this, how could he be selfish?
Behind the screen, the female family members held their breath and listened to the narration in front of them calmly, listening to Jia Amnesty's disposition, which was fair.Mother Jia finally let out a long sigh of relief. It's not easy to be too partial to the younger son on the surface. Fortunately, the eldest son is a filial and filial son.
At this moment, Mother Jia's heart is full of how sensible her eldest son is, which is really dumbfounding.Only Mrs. Wang, the handkerchief in her hand was clenched a little bit, and her face was also a little stiff. It really looked a little weird, and the little Mrs. Zhou on the side looked straight at it.
"According to my opinion, two of the three small houses in Beijing are for the second brother. You have a large population, and you will have to buy a house when you divide the family in the future. What do you think?"
"It's doable."
Having just read the house deeds, Jia Zheng knew that those houses were in the inner city, and the geographical location was very rare. If the second house were to be separated in the future, the children would live nearer.
"The rest are two farms and five shops."
"One share for each person in the farm, there is no entanglement. There are three in the long house of the shop, and two in yours. It is equivalent to the house just now. What do you think of the second brother?"
His family division was actually very fair, and Jia Zheng himself had no objections.
The people who sat beside him were naturally very satisfied. They really didn't expect that Gong She is actually a kind person.
Even the treacherous and cunning Wang Ziteng had a look of emotion on his face, he had misjudged the wrong person in the past?
"Brothers and sisters, do you think this is good?"
Jia Amnesty was a little worried, raised his voice slightly, and asked across the screen.
"Okay, everything is according to the uncle's words."
Mrs. Wang replied immediately, since the second and second couple had no objection, and Jia's mother didn't object aloud, then there is no room for outsiders to speak.
"Since this is the case, then Zhu Er, you and Lian Er brothers go to draw lots, and the antique calligraphy and paintings that were not mentioned just now are all on the table, so grab whatever you grab, and you won't regret it in the future. "
After Jia Amnesty finished speaking, he sat down, picked up the teacup, and began to quench his thirst.Having said so much, my mouth is so dry.
Although the two cousins Jia Zhu and Jia Lian have not been close these years, they still maintained a peaceful face. When they heard the words, they stood up hastily.Seeing that the elders had no other orders, they went to the front table.
There is a shop, a farm, a shop, and antique calligraphy and paintings, all of which are balls of calligraphy, which are randomly grasped in the hands.
After that, the treasury was opened to divide things.The matter here was settled, Jia's mansion naturally held a banquet, not only to entertain the in-laws, but also to be the last reunion banquet with the second room.
As long as Jia's mother thinks that the second room will be separated in the future, and that she can no longer be married, she feels very uncomfortable.It's a pity that now that the overall situation has been settled, she can only feel aggrieved when she sees her young son who is so excited.
Half a month later, Jia Zheng moved to a new house with Jia Musai's private house money and his family's family members.
Although Jia Amnesty didn't go to eat wine to warm up the house, Jia Lian, the head of the first-class general's mansion, showed up. This made the dignitaries in Beijing have to weigh one or two. Although Jia's mansion has been separated, But the long room still protects the second room.
Everyone's perception of Jia She and his son has improved a bit.
Thinking of his father's explanation, Jia Lian hid the sarcasm from the corner of his mouth, followed behind his cousin, and worked harder to entertain the guests.
After this day of tossing, I am really about to toss my old bones.Little Zhou also felt sorry for her husband, pinching his shoulders and beating his back, sweating profusely.
"Don't be so busy, be careful to get tired again."
Little Zhou loves herself so much, how could she bear to let his wife serve her?Hastily pulling her to lie in his arms, looking at the rosy glow on Little Zhou's face, Jia Lian felt very satisfied.
At the beginning, because I wanted to show sincerity to my uncle's family, I didn't have anyone in the room.Whether it was a girl sent by the old lady or arranged by the second aunt, my father took care of it.He didn't think so at first, but now, he is really grateful to his father.
Thinking of the three concubines and two concubines in the cousin's house, I couldn't help but tremble.
His wife is beautiful and gentle, what else can he not be satisfied with?Jia Lian never thought about whether he guarded Xiao Zhou wholeheartedly because of his feelings for beating the child or because of Xiao Zhou's appearance.
For Jia Lian, such a thankless task is asking for trouble.
"Grandpa, do you think the division of the family by the master is sincere?"
Little Zhou asked after a long while, not because she guessed and criticized the elders, but because this uncle and father-in-law is really puzzling.
"You don't care, as long as the master is happy."
Jia Lian didn't have any other thoughts at all. He was very clear about his father's temperament. There must be someone behind him. Otherwise, it would be no wonder that he could separate the family so happily according to his temperament.
Thinking about it this way, Jia Lian let go of all his thoughts. Besides, his father's private house is rich, and he only has a son like himself. Isn't all these things in the future all his own?
Jia Lian became more and more calm, beauty comes first, who cares about those cold things?
Soon, Little Zhou lost all reason to speculate on her father-in-law's thoughts, and her mind became a mess.
Because of Jia She's taking care of the second wife, Jia's mother has liked the eldest son quite a lot these days.Furthermore, she was old and felt lonely, so she often sent someone to call Jia She to Rongqing Hall, and the mother and son talked about the old days, which was considered to pass the time.
But even so, Jia Mu's private house is still decreasing day by day.She is getting older, her memory is not as good as before, and her energy is not as good as before. Many things are taken care of by her former servant...
The 83-year-old Jia Mu finally came to the end of her life, and her eldest grandson, Baoyu, who had always been the most valued, got married.
Jia She took his brother and son with him, and his nephews began to live in mourning.Regarding the matter of the old lady being partial to the second bedroom and leaving most of her private house to the second bedroom, neither Jia Amnesty nor Jia Lian had any idea, death is nothing, and besides, it belongs to the old lady, whoever she likes to give it to Just give it to anyone, there is no shortage of such ideas in their house.
It's a pity that the relatives who came and went felt that the second room was too thick-skinned, and the first room was too generous.
Only Mrs. Wang, who is in charge of the affairs of the second room, has troubles and can't tell, so she can only respond to other people's words with a stiff smile.
The old lady's children were filial, and even the married daughters went back to the house for the funeral. Only the old lady's own daughter, Jia Min, passed away early. However, the son-in-law Lin Ruhai also came to the house with his son. He has also maintained his relationship with Jia's mansion, especially with the long house.
Lin Ruhai was completely old the year before last, and now he is living a very leisurely life. Like his uncle, he set up a hot spring village outside the city, and lives in Gyeonggi from time to time, and doesn't often go back to his home.
He wouldn't admit that his early retirement was stimulated by his eldest brother's comfortable life.The eldest brother is obviously much older than him, but he looks like he is the same age as him, or even a few years younger, which makes Lin Ruhai a lot of stimulation.
Only Jia Zheng did not give up on his official career, but this time, his mother died, and he wanted Ding You, fearing that it would not be easy for him to recover in the future.
These are all gossips. The old lady died, and the Jia family began a three-year mourning period, but Jia Lian quickly recovered after a hundred days.
The official was promoted to the fourth rank, entered the household department, and began his busy days of heel knocking.After Jia Zhu observed the funeral obediently, he pursued a career in politics and was released from Beijing.He followed the Li family's path, so he naturally wanted to bring his wife and children with him.
Although Wang was unhappy, her son was important, so she endured her displeasure, packed up Li Wan and Jia Lan, and let her son take them away.
Fortunately, there are still Baoyu and his wife by his side. As for Jia Huan and Jia Cong, they have to wait until they have achieved fame before they can marry each other.
Although Xiangyun, the grandnephew of the old lady's natal family whom Baoyu married, was an orphan without father or mother, the old lady took pity on her, and she and Baoyu also had a childhood affection, so they made the decision.
Jia Zheng also strongly agreed with this matter. The historian only had such a prostitute, so Baoyu's official career would naturally be wider in the future.
Although Mrs. Wang wanted to talk about her niece Baochai, neither her sister nor her brother-in-law wanted to let go. Mrs. Wang still disliked Baochai's low background, but she still looked down on her son. The annoyed Wang gradually cut off contact with Jinling.
Xue Ning married his daughter to the wealthy Fang family in Jinling, who was also a well-educated family, so it was a good time to help his son.
three years later
"Father, what do you mean?"
"I want to take my grandson back to Jinling to worship the ancestors!"
Although Jia Amnesty was still in good health, he had the trembling appearance of an old man, which actually bluffed a lot of people.
"Father, let's give birth to some children. After a few years, the weather will be warmer. I want to take leave from the Yamen and take you and your eldest grandson to Jinling, okay?"
"Hmph, I don't want you to accompany me. I'll just take my grandson with me."
Jia Amnesty was out of temper, the older he got, the more he would not listen to persuasion and would do the opposite.
"Father, or just follow the grandfather."
Jia Lian's eldest son, Jia Mao, said to his father that he really felt sorry for his father. The outcome of this battle was very obvious, and his father must have lost.
"You stinky boy, don't think that you can tell me what to do in front of your father once you are a juren."
Towards his son, Jia Lian has always been a strict father. In fact, the father spoiled the brat to no end. If he hadn't been behind him, who knows what would have happened.
"Hmph, if you want to play prestige, don't come here and scare my grandson, I won't obey!"
Jia Amnesty's face was sullen, and he really couldn't understand Jia Lian's cold face towards his children in the past. He was not one of those weird fathers, so why did he raise such a son?
Jia Amnesty really couldn't figure it out.
"Ouch, my dear father, take it easy and don't flinch again."
Jia Lian couldn't bear to see Jia She's trembling with his crutches up, so he hurried forward two steps, so as not to tire his father any more.
"I don't need you to be good, I just inform you that next month I will take my eldest grandson out of Beijing to worship the ancestors."
Jia Lian couldn't laugh or cry when he heard the words, it's already 25, how many days until next month?
"It's better not to be in such a hurry. Luggage, boats, you have to arrange it well."
Jia Lian couldn't hold back his father, so he had to agree, but at this time, it still has to be delayed. He should go and ask the emperor for leave. He really can't rest assured that his father is old enough to travel like this.
Jia Amnesty was a little complacent in his heart, and he agreed with some disapproval on his face.
Jia Lian asked for leave and wanted to accompany his father back to his hometown to worship the ancestors. The emperor thought about it and granted a half-year vacation.
The whole family wanted to leave, so naturally it was not easy to leave. After half a month of tossing, Jia She and his party finally set off.
When they arrived in Jinling, Jia Zheng brought his youngest son Jia Cong to the ancestral home. He really missed seeing his elder brother for so long.
The life of the second house of Jia's family is really difficult, poor management, many descendants, and little financial left after the separation.
After Jia amnesty helped several times, Jia Zheng couldn't speak to his brother brazenly anymore.After retiring, he took his youngest son Jia Cong back to Jinling. As for the other three sons, they all separated. Only Jia Cong, for various reasons, has not yet married or entered an official position.After returning to Jinling, he entered ethnology and lived by teaching the clansmen.
What a tight day!
After sending Jia Zheng away, Jia Amnesty smiled happily and vomited everything he ate.Thinking about the big house in Jia Zhengjing, didn't it fall into his own hands in the end, hmph, really don't get mad, think of yourself as Mickey Mouse?
Although he smiled strangely, Jia Lian and his son could see through Jia Amnesty's meaning at a glance. They were really benevolent to the second room. Jia Lian only regarded them as ordinary clansmen and didn't pay much attention to them.
After Jia Amnesty came back, many clansmen came to the door to curry favor, to tease the autumn wind, to make connections, and there was no free time all day long.
Only Mrs. Wang was the only one who didn't come to the door.Looking at her somewhat worn clothes, Wang sighed, turned around and went to the back room, picked up a needle and thread, and began to make clothes.
I don't know how Baoyu is now?
Mrs. Wang was still thinking about it, she should embroider well, and after this month's task was handed in, she would be able to save enough money, and it would be serious to send someone to Baoyu.
Thinking of Baoyu who was suffering in the Hanlin Academy, Wang's heart was pierced like a knife, and he regretted that he should not have been so greedy for cheap, if not, Baoyu still has someone to take care of him now.
Baoyu, whom Wang was thinking of, was tired of the strife in the officialdom, and resigned angrily.He only regretted it when he looked at his wife who was waiting for Lumi to cook.It's a pity, it's too late to regret!
Even if there is no "Baoyu" and nothing extraordinary, Baoyu's temperament has not changed much. It is really hard for him to be forced by his father and brother to be admitted as an official in the Imperial Academy.
Baoyu and his wife had no choice but to sell their property, rent a boat, go south to Jinling, and join their parents...
