[Red Mansion] You deserve the hell!
Chapter 041
Contradicting the old lady is indeed not worthy of praise, but her mood is understandable.As for Mrs. Wang, as the real head of the family in the backyard of the Rong Mansion, she couldn't justify being slapped in the face.She already had feelings for Jia Min, usually she didn't say anything, but she exploded after being beaten.
"My lord, you are too partial! Brother Zhu studied so hard and managed to get the grades. Instead of being rewarded, why should he wear mourning for Jia Min?"
"What kind of thing is Jia Min? The water that my married daughter poured out, why does the old lady try to hurt me?"
"If it affects Zhu'er's mood, who is responsible for saying something wrong in front of the emperor during the palace examination?"
"Is it the old lady? Or Jia Min?"
"I will never let that bitch drag down my sons and daughters! Our sister Yuan doesn't even have anyone to rely on. How hard is it in the Ninth Brother's house? The master actually dragged her down for outsiders! Sister Yuan said, Ninth Brother Yin I have high hopes for my son, if he can impress the emperor, he will be able to find a good job! If he gets bad luck because of wearing sackcloth and filial piety... I will never end with her! No matter what, I will not be worried if she dies born!"
……
This was the first time Jia Zheng saw Mrs. Wang speak harshly. Her eyes were cold and there was no expression on her face.
She has been enduring it all the time, she always loses the game with Jia Min.
How can I be willing?
Mrs. Wang didn't wait for Jia Zheng to say anything, she got up from the ground, went back to her room and wrote a letter to Yuan Chun, explaining the matter clearly.
When Yinzhen came back, she saw her four sons crawling around on the bed. Yuan Chun didn't go to play with them, but sat by the side in a daze, with a letter from home in her hand.Yinzhen has no concept of respecting *, Jia Yuanchun is a member of his family, what can't he know?After unfolding the letter and reading a few lines, Yinzhen frowned.
It's fine if you can't help much, and you're dragging your feet to death. Jia Zheng is simply a model of cheating his son.Jia Zhu is Yuan Chun's elder brother, and Yinzhen knows that after she had placed such high hopes, something like this happened in Rong Mansion.Yinzhen really wanted to help her solve it, he wanted to see Yuanchun smile, but he couldn't intervene.This is a private matter of the Rongguo Mansion and has nothing to do with the court.
Yinzhen pulled Yuan Chun into his arms violently, their foreheads touched, and Yinzhen reached out and touched Yuan Chun's cheek.
"Grandfather is back?"
This doubtful tone made Yinzhen couldn't help changing touch to pinch.He pinched Yuan Chun's flushed cheeks, "Little heartless, you don't even know your master is back, why are you so obsessed?"
Yuan Chun shook her head, she didn't want to tell Yinzhen about this matter, elder brother can't take care of other people's housework, besides, she is not incapable of solving it.Sitting here in a daze with a face full of disappointment is because of his father's behavior.Yuan Chun shook his head, "It's just trivial matters, not important, sir, can you go to the main courtyard to see? The imperial doctor came to the house today, Fujin seems not feeling well."
Yinzhen frowned, he really didn't know.
"What are you going to do? I'm not a doctor, so I can't cure the disease."
Ha ha.
Regardless of whether you are a doctor or not, you can cure all diseases in the past!
She didn't need to guess what Fujin was thinking.
Before Yuan Chun said anything, a servant girl's voice came: "Go and see Fujin...!"
The voice of begging was so sad, Yinzhen kissed Yuan Chun on the lips, and said in a low voice: "Master, I will come back when I go, Chun'er remember to stay at the door."
As soon as Yinzhen walked away, Yuan Bao hummed.
"Ama ran away with other women, he doesn't care about you at all, Er Niang, let him sleep with Yuan Bao if you leave him!"
"The land deed is also needed, sleep!"
"Divorce him! Let's sleep together!"
……
How are you, Tuhao Nine?
Are you getting along well with Fujin?
You must not know that your son has become so hung up in six months.
Yuan Chun didn't know how hard Fujin performed. It was an hour after Yinzhen came over. Yuan Chun lay on the kang bed covered with ice, waiting until he fell asleep, and his stupid sons also fell asleep next to her.Yinzhen, who was half dead by Dong E's anger, was cured suddenly.
Life is good, and it makes sense for him to work hard to make money.
Yuan Chun always looked at him with a smile and spoke softly. She never lost her temper, even if she was bullied or treated unfairly.Yinzhen seldom meddled in the backyard, but he knew who was arrogant and who was proud. Yuanchun never argued with those shallow-skinned people, never quarreling or complaining, and his temper was so good that it made people feel distressed.It is just like this that Yinzhen can't help but care about her, and wants to present the best to her.He sent Xiaoluzi out, walked to the bed with light steps, carried the four brats out and put them in the shaker, and then reached out to untie the cheongsam.
Yinzhen's hands trembled a little because she had done the work of serving people, and when she unbuttoned the third button, Yuanchun opened her eyes in a daze.
"Grandpa?"
Yinzhen thought she was awake, and wanted to let her go and let her take off her clothes, but Yuan Chun just smiled at him and closed her eyes again.It was not only Yuan Chun who died of sleep, but also the four stupid sons who didn't even realize that they had lost their territory and were still snoring.
The next morning, Yuan Bao woke up and found himself lying on the narrow rocking bed, and the place next to Er Niang was once again occupied by the bastard Ama.
Those who steal money are all bastards!
Robbing the forehead is even more intolerable!
Yuan Bao looked at his tiny fist, and patted his limp belly full of fat.
QAQ can this body beat that bastard?
The next day, Yuan Chun's handwritten letter was sent back to Rong Mansion. Mrs. Wang felt that there would be no one who understood her better than her daughter. Look at what was written on it, and told her not to worry, just take good care of Brother Zhu, and the result would definitely make her happy. She is satisfied.There were two other letters in that letter, one for the old lady and the other for Jia Zheng.
Mrs. Wang didn't dare to open it and read it without authorization. She asked the servant girl to deliver the two letters. During the dinner, the old lady unexpectedly appeared. She didn't shake her face, but looked at the big room.
"The dead should not be chased. Min'er has already gone. I can't watch her only daughter belittled. Xie'er, you go to Yangzhou to pick up Daiyu yourself. A big man in Lin Hai can take good care of my poor granddaughter." ?”
Jia She was originally a dissolute and fun person, so he nodded without hesitation.
The old lady was still not at ease, and told her: "Daiyu is sensitive and fragile, don't say anything that makes her sad, and bring her back as soon as possible." Jia Amnesty would readily agree because it was Jiangnan Beauty, and he had no feelings for Jia Min at all. No.My sister's heart is higher than the sky, and she looks down on him who is so unlearned and incompetent. Before she got married, she and Jia She were disgusted.Brother Jia Minhei's number of times is really no less than that of the second sister-in-law.Mrs. Wang's seizures were due to grievances for Jia Zhu and lack of self-cultivation.Jia She considers himself a gentleman, he is very generous, and he doesn't care about women like him.
On the second day, Jia She went to the pier to take a boat to Yangzhou, Rong Mansion also fell into a strange atmosphere.Although there were dissatisfaction with each other, no one made a big deal out of it.
Half a month passed in a flash, and on the tenth day of the sixth lunar month, the candidates who passed the re-examination stood in line according to their rankings, and entered the palace in a single file at dawn.The palace examination was held in the Palace of Preserving Harmony, and the minister of the Ministry of Rites personally called the name, and then saluted with praise.After completing these procedures, the chief examiner issues policy questions.The rule of this dynasty is that the question of current affairs policy in the imperial examination is written by Kangxi, and the question is about five or six hundred characters long.There is no limit to the length of candidates' essays.
Jia Zhu sat down in his seat, and the examiner began to hand out the papers. After seeing the questions handpicked by Kangxi, he was stunned for a moment.Sure enough, it is a rare point that is not easy to pay attention to when studying, but it is among the key points given by my sister.Jia Zhu has thought about this policy question many times, consulted various materials to fully confirm it, and even revised his own argument according to the emperor's preferences.Jia Zhu was very excited, and his left hand on his thigh was shaking. With such an advantage, if he couldn't get the top three in the head armor, he would be sorry for his sister's concern.
Stop thinking about it, he has to calm down and answer the question.
Jia Zhu closed his eyes, took a few deep breaths, then dipped in ink and began to answer the questions. Because he had a complete answer in his mind, he seldom thought about it and focused more on the format and layout.Jia Zhu wrote on the paper with a standard courtyard style, and every word was black and straight.They had a whole day to write this article, and Jia Zhu wrote every word as if he was practicing calligraphy. Even so, this [-]-word article only took half a day.He read it repeatedly, and stopped writing after confirming that it was correct, closing his eyes and resting his mind.
In the evening, all the examinees had completed their essays, and they left the Hall of Preservation and Harmony under the leadership of the eunuch, and the examiners sealed the answer sheets.
The marking day was the third day after the imperial examination. Eight examiners formed a circle and took turns marking the papers. They selected the ten best papers and passed them on to Kangxi.They were all exquisite articles, and Kangxi read them all night, fascinated, and at noon the next day, Li Dequan issued the decree, imperially appointing the top three tripods.
The only ones hand-picked by Kangxi are the champion, second place, and Tanhua.
There are five big hits in this exam, one of them comes from a humble background, and the other four are from scholarly families.Everyone thought that the top three must be produced among these five people, but in fact there is little difference.Wei Qinghe, a poor student from the south of the Yangtze River, is Tanhua, and Sima Yu, the eldest son of Sima Ren, the president of Songshan Academy, is the second in the list... The name of the number one scholar blinded the officials.
Jia Zhu!
Jia Zhu, the eldest son of the second wife of the Rongguo Mansion!
Kangxi admired his policy writing. If he was 20 years old, he would definitely regard Jia Zhu as his confidant. His views were completely consistent with the holy will, and he was the one who satisfied Kangxi the most among the last five imperial examinations.On the day when the rankings were released, the five most popular players put on elegant and elegant robes, and they waited for their bookboys to come back in Fenghuayuan to announce the good news.
Everyone felt that they would be rewarded by the emperor for the most exquisite article. The waiting process was very long. Don't look at them smiling and full of confidence... in fact, their palms were sweating.
"Congratulations to Chen Yushan Jinshi, the top two!"
"Congratulations to Zhou Wenhua Jinshi, top five!"
dissatisfied!Totally dissatisfied!Especially the No.5 in the second class, the last result he can accept is No.2 in the second class, which is the fifth overall ranking.It is obvious that it has been perfected, who is pushing ahead of him.
Everyone in Fenghua Courtyard congratulated him, but he was not happy at all, and always felt humiliated.
Where is the No.5 in the second class worthy of congratulations?
"Wei Qinghe, Wei Qinghe Jinshi is the emperor's hand-picked Tanhua Lang!"
"Young Master Situ is No. 2, second place!"
Four of the five favorites belonged, and everyone looked at the last one, who was Wu Chengyu, the youngest son of Bachelor Wu of the Imperial Academy.Everyone clasped their hands together and said, "Congratulations, Young Master Wu..." Before they could finish speaking, the announcer came: "Master Wu No. 3, congratulations!"
The great joy was quenched by a ladle of cold water... Damn, I said it earlier, how embarrassing it is now.
Wu Chengyu cleared his throat and asked, "Who is the number one scholar?"
"...It's Uncle Zhu, Jia Zhu from the Rongguo Mansion!"
Ha ha.
Hehehehe.
Will he try Jia Zhu, the second son of the Rongguo Mansion, who is more than [-] people away?
Nine-side Fujin Jia's elder brother Jia Zhu?
What seems wrong?Although he successfully passed the provincial examination and the general examination, his rankings were not good. No one would have thought that this guy would come out on top in the palace examination... The local rich brother-in-law bribed the examiner to buy the answer sheet, right?It's true that he was shot while lying down, Yinzhen didn't even think about the first class, he thought it would be good for his brother-in-law to rank well in the second class.
Yuanchun just ushered in the good news, and the imperial decree has already arrived at Rongfu.
"Fortunately, the emperor ordered that Jia Zhu, the son of Jia Zheng, the fourth-rank Taichang Temple Shaoqing, has a brilliant literary talent, a wealth of knowledge, and unique viewpoints on his essays, which won my heart... for the imperial bestowed the number one scholar, bestowed the number one scholar's mansion, and the volume was from six Edited by Pin Hanlin Academy,... I admire this."
After returning from the palace examination, Jia Zhu had imagined such a scene. His taciturnity made everyone in the Rong Mansion feel terrible. Could it be that he really got into bad luck?For several days, Mrs. Wang's greetings to the old lady were both yin and yang.Everyone in the whole family had made the bottom-line psychological preparations to scare his mother to death...it turned out to be the number one scholar! !
The huge surprise made Mrs. Wang feel elated. From today on, she not only has a daughter who is the elder brother's side Fujin, but also a champion son.
She was so miserable when she first got married, she was always accused by that bitch Jia Min, always reprimanded by the old lady, and the master thought she was stupid and uneducated.Mrs. Wang was already in tears. She knelt on the ground and didn't get up for a long time. It was the big maid next to the old lady who gave the eunuch the eunuch a red envelope.
The edict was left behind, and the eunuch left.Jia Zhu nodded to her father, Jia Zheng, and then held the imperial decree in front of Mrs. Wang, "Mother, my son is the champion. Don't cry." Mrs. Wang is not smart, and her heart is not very good, but there is one thing about her that others can't match Well, Mrs. Wang regards her children as her own destiny, and she doesn't want them to suffer any grievances.Before Yuan Chun got married, she wished she could empty out her small treasury; the news of Jia Min's death came that the old lady wanted the whole family to wear plain clothes to mourn their daughter.Mrs. Wang was able to contradict her for Jia Zhu, and even got a slap in the face from Jia Zheng.
How important is it to wear plain clothes?
After all, she was afraid that her son would get bad luck.
Seeing her son kneeling in front of her, Mrs. Wang felt that it didn't matter no matter how much she was wronged and suffered too much. Her daughter was going well and her son was happy... Her life also began to become comfortable and complete.Mrs. Wang just stood up and helped Jia Zhu up at the same time. She wiped away her tears and said with a smile, "Good! Good! Good! My son really lives up to expectations! Sister Yuan must be very happy when she knows."
The old lady also wanted to see the imperial decree with her own eyes, and she even wanted to confess the imperial decree.
Of course Jia Zhu would not agree, he already had the confidence to reject the unfair request.It is said that the old lady prefers the second wife, but in reality, this object should be narrowed down to the father and Baoyu.The younger sister participated in the talent show and was chosen by a nobleman, and she was also pious to rely on her sister's support.Jia Zhu knows how to choose in the future better than anyone else.
On the same day, Jia Zhu proposed to move to Zhuangyuan Mansion, hoping that her mother would go with her.
Of course Jia Zheng didn't agree, he wanted to fly away when he became the champion and his wings hardened?The ungrateful bastard!Seeing the tears in the old lady's eyes, Jia Zheng felt an evil fire in his heart. He picked up the stool and threw it on his son. "You obscene scumbag who forgets his ancestors!"
Jia Zhu didn't hide at all, Mrs. Wang and Li Wan scrambled to jump on him.
"My lord, you are so cruel! It's fine if you hit me, but you actually treated my son like this! The mansion of the No. [-] scholar was bestowed by the emperor, so why not?"
Li Wan also wiped his tears and said, "Our master doesn't want to do this either, but if the higher ups blame us... who can afford it?"
Speaking of this, Jia Zheng also woke up, and then he remembered that the mansion was given by the emperor, and it was a holy will for Brother Zhu to share it.Jia Zheng didn't hit or let go with the stool, it was very embarrassing.Only then did the old lady come out to smooth things over, and asked Jia Zhu to come back to visit often, so as not to forget the old ancestor.Jia Zhu said yes, and said that he wanted to take his parents to live there for a while. Jia Zheng, as the fourth rank Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, had not been given a mansion yet, and he asked his son to walk in front.
Those who came to express their congratulations broke through the threshold of Rongguo Mansion, but the champion Lang Jiazhu left. He only took a few large bundles of books and left Rongguo Mansion with his mother and daughter-in-law.After getting the news, Yuan Chun was very happy. She had long been looking forward to the separation. The old lady was still alive for a day, which was definitely not going to happen. Now that she is back, she has a mansion bestowed by the emperor, and her elder brother can't live there. And her mother is more sober than in her previous life. She has never done it before. Anything that embarrasses your children.
His father was stubborn and rigid to the extreme. In his heart, the old lady was the first, and the wife was the least important... He basically declared that there was no way to save him.Yuan Chun doesn't know much about Baoyu's current situation. Even if his virtue is not good, he is still seven years old and can be saved.Everything is moving in a good direction, and Yuanchun feels that her rebirth is meaningful and her efforts are worthwhile.
Knowing that Zhuangyuanlang moved out of Rongfu, the threshold of Yuzhuzhuangyuanfu was almost broken. Although it was only edited from the sixth rank, every champion in the Qing Dynasty was more than that.As long as you can agree with Kangxi, don't accept bribes, don't form cliques for personal gain, it is not difficult to become a bachelor.
On the day she moved into Zhuangyuan's Mansion, Li Wan fainted from overwork, and she was diagnosed as two months pregnant.This made Mrs. Wang more pleasing to her eyes, and the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law eased.After tidying up the Zhuangyuan Mansion, Jia Zhu set up two tables and invited classmates, friends, sisters, and brother-in-laws.
It was Yinzhen who accepted the invitation. He readily agreed to the invitation of his brother-in-law and agreed to bring Yuanchun and his four sons to attend.The combination of Yinzhen, Yuanchun, four stupid sons, Shuaigui and Rongruo came to the Royal Number One Scholar's Mansion on Sitiao Avenue, which is next to Jiu Age's Mansion.
"My lord, you are too partial! Brother Zhu studied so hard and managed to get the grades. Instead of being rewarded, why should he wear mourning for Jia Min?"
"What kind of thing is Jia Min? The water that my married daughter poured out, why does the old lady try to hurt me?"
"If it affects Zhu'er's mood, who is responsible for saying something wrong in front of the emperor during the palace examination?"
"Is it the old lady? Or Jia Min?"
"I will never let that bitch drag down my sons and daughters! Our sister Yuan doesn't even have anyone to rely on. How hard is it in the Ninth Brother's house? The master actually dragged her down for outsiders! Sister Yuan said, Ninth Brother Yin I have high hopes for my son, if he can impress the emperor, he will be able to find a good job! If he gets bad luck because of wearing sackcloth and filial piety... I will never end with her! No matter what, I will not be worried if she dies born!"
……
This was the first time Jia Zheng saw Mrs. Wang speak harshly. Her eyes were cold and there was no expression on her face.
She has been enduring it all the time, she always loses the game with Jia Min.
How can I be willing?
Mrs. Wang didn't wait for Jia Zheng to say anything, she got up from the ground, went back to her room and wrote a letter to Yuan Chun, explaining the matter clearly.
When Yinzhen came back, she saw her four sons crawling around on the bed. Yuan Chun didn't go to play with them, but sat by the side in a daze, with a letter from home in her hand.Yinzhen has no concept of respecting *, Jia Yuanchun is a member of his family, what can't he know?After unfolding the letter and reading a few lines, Yinzhen frowned.

Jia Zheng is simply a model of cheating his son.Jia Zhu is Yuan Chun's elder brother, and Yinzhen knows that after she had placed such high hopes, something like this happened in Rong Mansion.Yinzhen really wanted to help her solve it, he wanted to see Yuanchun smile, but he couldn't intervene.This is a private matter of the Rongguo Mansion and has nothing to do with the court.
Yinzhen pulled Yuan Chun into his arms violently, their foreheads touched, and Yinzhen reached out and touched Yuan Chun's cheek.
"Grandfather is back?"
This doubtful tone made Yinzhen couldn't help changing touch to pinch.He pinched Yuan Chun's flushed cheeks, "Little heartless, you don't even know your master is back, why are you so obsessed?"
Yuan Chun shook her head, she didn't want to tell Yinzhen about this matter, elder brother can't take care of other people's housework, besides, she is not incapable of solving it.Sitting here in a daze with a face full of disappointment is because of his father's behavior.Yuan Chun shook his head, "It's just trivial matters, not important, sir, can you go to the main courtyard to see? The imperial doctor came to the house today, Fujin seems not feeling well."
Yinzhen frowned, he really didn't know.
"What are you going to do? I'm not a doctor, so I can't cure the disease."
Ha ha.
Regardless of whether you are a doctor or not, you can cure all diseases in the past!
She didn't need to guess what Fujin was thinking.
Before Yuan Chun said anything, a servant girl's voice came: "Go and see Fujin...!"
The voice of begging was so sad, Yinzhen kissed Yuan Chun on the lips, and said in a low voice: "Master, I will come back when I go, Chun'er remember to stay at the door."
As soon as Yinzhen walked away, Yuan Bao hummed.
"Ama ran away with other women, he doesn't care about you at all, Er Niang, let him sleep with Yuan Bao if you leave him!"
"The land deed is also needed, sleep!"
"Divorce him! Let's sleep together!"
……
How are you, Tuhao Nine?
Are you getting along well with Fujin?
You must not know that your son has become so hung up in six months.
Yuan Chun didn't know how hard Fujin performed. It was an hour after Yinzhen came over. Yuan Chun lay on the kang bed covered with ice, waiting until he fell asleep, and his stupid sons also fell asleep next to her.Yinzhen, who was half dead by Dong E's anger, was cured suddenly.

Yinzhen thought she was awake, and wanted to let her go and let her take off her clothes, but Yuan Chun just smiled at him and closed her eyes again.It was not only Yuan Chun who died of sleep, but also the four stupid sons who didn't even realize that they had lost their territory and were still snoring.
The next morning, Yuan Bao woke up and found himself lying on the narrow rocking bed, and the place next to Er Niang was once again occupied by the bastard Ama.
Those who steal money are all bastards!
Robbing the forehead is even more intolerable!
Yuan Bao looked at his tiny fist, and patted his limp belly full of fat.
QAQ can this body beat that bastard?
The next day, Yuan Chun's handwritten letter was sent back to Rong Mansion. Mrs. Wang felt that there would be no one who understood her better than her daughter. Look at what was written on it, and told her not to worry, just take good care of Brother Zhu, and the result would definitely make her happy. She is satisfied.There were two other letters in that letter, one for the old lady and the other for Jia Zheng.

"The dead should not be chased. Min'er has already gone. I can't watch her only daughter belittled. Xie'er, you go to Yangzhou to pick up Daiyu yourself. A big man in Lin Hai can take good care of my poor granddaughter." ?”
Jia She was originally a dissolute and fun person, so he nodded without hesitation.
The old lady was still not at ease, and told her: "Daiyu is sensitive and fragile, don't say anything that makes her sad, and bring her back as soon as possible."

Everyone in Fenghua Courtyard congratulated him, but he was not happy at all, and always felt humiliated.
Where is the No.5 in the second class worthy of congratulations?
"Wei Qinghe, Wei Qinghe Jinshi is the emperor's hand-picked Tanhua Lang!"
"Young Master Situ is No. 2, second place!"
Four of the five favorites belonged, and everyone looked at the last one, who was Wu Chengyu, the youngest son of Bachelor Wu of the Imperial Academy.Everyone clasped their hands together and said, "Congratulations, Young Master Wu..." Before they could finish speaking, the announcer came: "Master Wu No. 3, congratulations!"
The great joy was quenched by a ladle of cold water... Damn, I said it earlier, how embarrassing it is now.
Wu Chengyu cleared his throat and asked, "Who is the number one scholar?"
"...It's Uncle Zhu, Jia Zhu from the Rongguo Mansion!"
Ha ha.
Hehehehe.
Will he try Jia Zhu, the second son of the Rongguo Mansion, who is more than [-] people away?
Nine-side Fujin Jia's elder brother Jia Zhu?
What seems wrong?Although he successfully passed the provincial examination and the general examination, his rankings were not good. No one would have thought that this guy would come out on top in the palace examination... The local rich brother-in-law bribed the examiner to buy the answer sheet, right?It's true that he was shot while lying down, Yinzhen didn't even think about the first class, he thought it would be good for his brother-in-law to rank well in the second class.
Yuanchun just ushered in the good news, and the imperial decree has already arrived at Rongfu.
"Fortunately, the emperor ordered that Jia Zhu, the son of Jia Zheng, the fourth-rank Taichang Temple Shaoqing, has a brilliant literary talent, a wealth of knowledge, and unique viewpoints on his essays, which won my heart... for the imperial bestowed the number one scholar, bestowed the number one scholar's mansion, and the volume was from six Edited by Pin Hanlin Academy,... I admire this."
After returning from the palace examination, Jia Zhu had imagined such a scene. His taciturnity made everyone in the Rong Mansion feel terrible. Could it be that he really got into bad luck?For several days, Mrs. Wang's greetings to the old lady were both yin and yang.Everyone in the whole family had made the bottom-line psychological preparations to scare his mother to death...it turned out to be the number one scholar! !
The huge surprise made Mrs. Wang feel elated. From today on, she not only has a daughter who is the elder brother's side Fujin, but also a champion son.
She was so miserable when she first got married, she was always accused by that bitch Jia Min, always reprimanded by the old lady, and the master thought she was stupid and uneducated.Mrs. Wang was already in tears. She knelt on the ground and didn't get up for a long time. It was the big maid next to the old lady who gave the eunuch the eunuch a red envelope.
The edict was left behind, and the eunuch left.Jia Zhu nodded to her father, Jia Zheng, and then held the imperial decree in front of Mrs. Wang, "Mother, my son is the champion. Don't cry." Mrs. Wang is not smart, and her heart is not very good, but there is one thing about her that others can't match Well, Mrs. Wang regards her children as her own destiny, and she doesn't want them to suffer any grievances.Before Yuan Chun got married, she wished she could empty out her small treasury; the news of Jia Min's death came that the old lady wanted the whole family to wear plain clothes to mourn their daughter.Mrs. Wang was able to contradict her for Jia Zhu, and even got a slap in the face from Jia Zheng.
How important is it to wear plain clothes?
After all, she was afraid that her son would get bad luck.
Seeing her son kneeling in front of her, Mrs. Wang felt that it didn't matter no matter how much she was wronged and suffered too much. Her daughter was going well and her son was happy... Her life also began to become comfortable and complete.Mrs. Wang just stood up and helped Jia Zhu up at the same time. She wiped away her tears and said with a smile, "Good! Good! Good! My son really lives up to expectations! Sister Yuan must be very happy when she knows."
The old lady also wanted to see the imperial decree with her own eyes, and she even wanted to confess the imperial decree.
Of course Jia Zhu would not agree, he already had the confidence to reject the unfair request.It is said that the old lady prefers the second wife, but in reality, this object should be narrowed down to the father and Baoyu.The younger sister participated in the talent show and was chosen by a nobleman, and she was also pious to rely on her sister's support.Jia Zhu knows how to choose in the future better than anyone else.
On the same day, Jia Zhu proposed to move to Zhuangyuan Mansion, hoping that her mother would go with her.
Of course Jia Zheng didn't agree, he wanted to fly away when he became the champion and his wings hardened?The ungrateful bastard!Seeing the tears in the old lady's eyes, Jia Zheng felt an evil fire in his heart. He picked up the stool and threw it on his son. "You obscene scumbag who forgets his ancestors!"
Jia Zhu didn't hide at all, Mrs. Wang and Li Wan scrambled to jump on him.
"My lord, you are so cruel! It's fine if you hit me, but you actually treated my son like this! The mansion of the No. [-] scholar was bestowed by the emperor, so why not?"
Li Wan also wiped his tears and said, "Our master doesn't want to do this either, but if the higher ups blame us... who can afford it?"
Speaking of this, Jia Zheng also woke up, and then he remembered that the mansion was given by the emperor, and it was a holy will for Brother Zhu to share it.Jia Zheng didn't hit or let go with the stool, it was very embarrassing.Only then did the old lady come out to smooth things over, and asked Jia Zhu to come back to visit often, so as not to forget the old ancestor.Jia Zhu said yes, and said that he wanted to take his parents to live there for a while. Jia Zheng, as the fourth rank Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, had not been given a mansion yet, and he asked his son to walk in front.
Those who came to express their congratulations broke through the threshold of Rongguo Mansion, but the champion Lang Jiazhu left. He only took a few large bundles of books and left Rongguo Mansion with his mother and daughter-in-law.After getting the news, Yuan Chun was very happy. She had long been looking forward to the separation. The old lady was still alive for a day, which was definitely not going to happen. Now that she is back, she has a mansion bestowed by the emperor, and her elder brother can't live there. And her mother is more sober than in her previous life. She has never done it before. Anything that embarrasses your children.
His father was stubborn and rigid to the extreme. In his heart, the old lady was the first, and the wife was the least important... He basically declared that there was no way to save him.Yuan Chun doesn't know much about Baoyu's current situation. Even if his virtue is not good, he is still seven years old and can be saved.Everything is moving in a good direction, and Yuanchun feels that her rebirth is meaningful and her efforts are worthwhile.
Knowing that Zhuangyuanlang moved out of Rongfu, the threshold of Yuzhuzhuangyuanfu was almost broken. Although it was only edited from the sixth rank, every champion in the Qing Dynasty was more than that.As long as you can agree with Kangxi, don't accept bribes, don't form cliques for personal gain, it is not difficult to become a bachelor.
On the day she moved into Zhuangyuan's Mansion, Li Wan fainted from overwork, and she was diagnosed as two months pregnant.This made Mrs. Wang more pleasing to her eyes, and the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law eased.After tidying up the Zhuangyuan Mansion, Jia Zhu set up two tables and invited classmates, friends, sisters, and brother-in-laws.
It was Yinzhen who accepted the invitation. He readily agreed to the invitation of his brother-in-law and agreed to bring Yuanchun and his four sons to attend.The combination of Yinzhen, Yuanchun, four stupid sons, Shuaigui and Rongruo came to the Royal Number One Scholar's Mansion on Sitiao Avenue, which is next to Jiu Age's Mansion.
