Jia Zheng through the Red Mansions

Jia Zheng thought in his heart that his body was fine, and he could go to work in the Ministry of Industry in a few days - he learned about the family situation from Aunt Zhao's narration, but Aunt Zhao didn't know that Jia The affairs in the political and official field, these are all the conclusions he came up with after rummaging in Jia Zheng's study. Now Jia Zheng's official position is the head of the Ministry of Industry, and he has not passed the imperial examination. It is not hereditary, but an extra gift from the emperor. .

Jia Zheng smiled bitterly, and said it was a gift, but this gift was really embarrassing. He didn't know who the official was, but he could see it from the letters and other bits and pieces left by Jia Zheng. Not an important official.Those with strong family backgrounds are probably high-ranking and high-ranking officials. Those without family backgrounds who passed the imperial examinations may not have high official positions, but they can tell with their toes that these scholars probably look down on nepotism like Jia Zheng from the bottom of their hearts. To sum up, it is really difficult to have a good relationship with colleagues!

Difficulties are difficult, but it’s all about human effort, isn’t it?At this time, Jia Zheng had sorted out his mood and was in good spirits and prepared for everything. Unfortunately, when he went to pay his respects to Jia's mother the next day, he was thrown a basin of cold water.

When Mother Jia heard that her son had just rested for a few days and was going to the ministry to report on his work, her face immediately dropped.

"You can't be sloppy with minor illnesses, you should rest for a few more days." The tone was serious, and no one could tell.

Just as Jia Zheng was about to say something, he heard Jia's mother turn her face and say to Mrs. Wang: "I'm a little tired, you two should go back to your room and rest."

Mrs. Wang said a few auspicious words, and then took Jia Zheng out. Jia Zheng was full of words, but he couldn't say a word.

"Master, the old lady loves you and asked you to rest at home for a few more days. Why do you argue with the old lady and make her angry." Mrs. Wang complained in her tone.

Jia Zheng was slightly taken aback when he heard the words. He naturally knew that filial piety was the first priority in ancient times. Although he was surprised at the supremacy of Jia's mother's rights when he first saw the Red Mansion, he didn't take it seriously in his heart. He always thought it was an exaggeration. Look, it seems that I am biased.

Seeing Jia Zheng stunned, Mrs. Wang couldn't help but feel a little sad when she thought of his illness, so she explained: "My lord, the official in charge of you is only a sixth-rank official, and the old lady is a second-rank madam. Say, you should listen to the old lady too."

Hearing this, Jia Zheng came to his senses. It was said that the first rank of officials crushed people to death. In Rongguo Mansion, the highest rank was Jia Mu. No wonder she always said what she said!

Back in the East Room of Rongxi Hall, Mrs. Wang ordered the servant girl to take care of the master and went out again. Now she is the housekeeper wife of Rongguo Mansion, and she has a lot of things to do.

After Mrs. Wang left for a while, Aunt Zhao came. Just after saying a few words, Jia Zheng suddenly asked, "Do you know where Baoyu lives now?"

Aunt Zhao's smiling face suddenly froze, but she quickly recovered and smiled and continued: "The old lady loves Baoyu, and the wife is busy with housekeeping, so the old lady personally hugged Baoyu and raised him with her." , live in the Bisha closet."

"Yes." Jia Zheng nodded, "Go and rest first."

Aunt Zhao gritted her teeth and watched Jia Zheng leave. Knowing that he must have gone to see Baoyu, she couldn't help but feel even more uncomfortable. She turned her head and went back to her room.

Aunt Zhao was refreshed, she rushed out to greet her, took her mother in, and let the little girl wait outside, then took her mother's hand and sighed.

"What's the matter with my aunt, I just mentioned my aunt, is there anyone else who can wrong you?" Aunt Zhao's mother used to be the servant girl next to Jia's mother. At this time, her daughter became an aunt, and her nostrils were turned upside down. Seeing the grievance on Aunt Zhao's face at this time, she decided that Mrs. Wang must have worn her daughter's shoes, and she felt very upset Come to think of it, no matter what her daughter said, she was given by the old lady. Even if her Mrs. Wang is unhappy, she can't do anything about it!

"Hey, no one wronged me, but I was angry that I gave birth to a sister because I didn't live up to my expectations." Aunt Zhao sighed.

Her mother was taken aback, and quickly asked: "Why, is someone chewing their tongue?"

"That's not true, it's just." Aunt Zhao stirred the handkerchief, "Master just went to see Baoyu. I have pity on my sister, but she doesn't like her father's favor." She had heard that the master didn't like this Baoyu. I was really happy for a while, but now it seems that the master has the slightest dislike for Baoyu?

"Aunt and grandma are still young, so it's not difficult to hurry up and conceive another brother. Why bother to think about something that doesn't take a lot of effort." Her mother laughed when she heard that.

"But mother, you have also seen that my sister was taken away before I even took a few glances, and later became my wife's name. I don't know if I will recognize my mother when I grow up. , I'm afraid, even if you have a brother, what's the use if you can't take care of yourself?" The more Aunt Zhao said, the more she felt that she was justified, and she couldn't help feeling even more sad.

"Auntie, don't worry. The last time I gave birth to a daughter, my wife was caught off guard because she was unprepared. This time, why don't you ask the master first. If the master agrees, the wife will naturally have nothing to do."

"But the old lady's side." Aunt Zhao couldn't help being a little puzzled when she said this. Speaking of which, she was from the old lady's side. Why didn't the old lady keep her? Everyone in the house could see that the old lady I'm a little dissatisfied with the fact that the wife didn't arrange a few people in the house for the master. Why did the old lady snatch her sister away this time?

"Hey, my auntie, you are so smart that you have been confused for a while. The status of a sister is important. In the future, if she marries well, you will also have face, but this brother is different. As long as you have fame, Who cares whether it is a concubine or a concubine, besides, the old lady is getting older now, as long as the elder brother is favored by the master, when the time comes, the family will be separated, and the wife will have nothing to do!" After her mother finished speaking, Aunt Zhao's eyes lit up immediately, and she nodded hastily.

The mother and daughter said some homely things again, not mentioning them for the time being, and said that when Jia Zheng came to Jia's mother's courtyard, he asked in a low voice that the old lady was resting, and then went straight to the green yarn cabinet. The nurse and maid met Jia Zheng. Come and get off the kang in a hurry, Jia Zheng waved his hand to let them not be restrained, his eyes had already drifted to Baoyu.

The white and tender milk baby, with big clever eyes, is pleasing to the eye, that's all, I can't report on my work for the time being, it's fine to play with Baoyu at home, and I'm playing with Baoyu when I see Jia Zhu walking in from the outside. Seeing that his father was also there, his originally relaxed face immediately tensed up, and he called out respectfully, "Father."

Jia Zheng said "Yes", and turned his eyes to Jia Zhu, only to see that he was wearing a dark blue gown today, and he looked a little more calm.

"Where are you coming from?" Seeing Jia Zhu's rigidity, Jia Zheng asked in a slow tone on purpose.

Jia Zhu was stunned for a moment, and quickly replied: "Today, my grandfather has something to do and left early for half a day."

Jia Zheng nodded with a smile. Seeing that Jia Zheng was so amiable today, Jia Zhu didn't tell him to go to school well, otherwise he was very surprised when he said something about his skin carefully, with an unnatural expression on his face.

Jia Zheng was also embarrassed, and didn't know what to say to his son. This is, Baoyu grabbed Jia Zheng's hand, put it in his mouth and bit it, and then said intermittently: "Dish, Dish!" dish."

Jia Zheng was amused by Baoyu's inarticulate words, and reminded him of his son's expression on his face becoming more gentle when he was just able to speak and called him "Papa", hugging Baoyu and nodding him His small forehead: "It's Daddy, come on, say Daddy again."

Seeing her father and younger brother having fun, Jia Zhu couldn't help feeling a little more courageous. She leaned over and booed: "Brother, brother."

The father and son were having a good time, but it was afternoon, and Mrs. Wang was going back and forth to Jia Mu's mansion for important matters. Hearing that Jia Mu was still resting, but Jia Zheng was in the green gauze closet in the backyard, he hurriedly followed, afraid Baoyu accidentally angered him, but who knew that after entering, he saw such a scene, and the heart that was hanging at that time was let go, and joy slipped in his eyes.

Quietly backing out, Mrs. Wang found a letter from her brother and sister-in-law from her room, which said that her brother Wang Ziteng had been promoted to the governor of the Beijing camp. My elder brother cleared up the situation for my husband, and then raised my official position. In this way, my imperial order can be promoted again, and my position as housekeeper wife in Jia's mansion is even more stable-now the eldest house is reunited, but the old lady But he didn't allow himself to give up the power of housekeeper, isn't it just looking at his brother's face?But on the one hand, she was afraid that Jia Zheng would be out of her control if he was promoted, especially his attitude towards Baoyu also worried her. Now it seems that it will be all right.

Mrs. Wang made up her mind to write a letter to her elder brother. Before she could write a few words, she saw her maid, Ning Huan, hurried in.

"What's the matter?" Mrs. Wang frowned.

"Ma'am, my aunt's mother just came to visit Aunt Zhao. Before she left, my aunt was not feeling well. She called the doctor, but they found a happy pulse." Ning Huan said bluntly.

What?Mrs. Wang's face turned pale, and she tightened her grip on the pen, "I see, I'll go back to the old lady, and you go and tell her that from now on, you don't have to go to the old lady to set rules, you just need to rest assured. "

After Ning Huan left, Mrs. Wang's complexion kept changing, and her frown finally relaxed. Maybe, this is a good opportunity?Aunt Zhao, do you really think you can turn against the sky?Do you think you will become the master after you give birth to a brother? She wants to see, she has a bargaining chip in her hand now, whether the old lady cares about her son's future, or the child in an aunt's womb!

At this time, the news of Aunt Zhao's happiness also reached Jia Zheng's ears. After hearing this, he was helpless. If he remembered correctly, Tanchun has only been more than a month now, right?In other words, Aunt Zhao was pregnant right after she was born?The original version, the original version, you are really "awesome"!
