The Warm Jade of the Red Chamber

In fact, ever since Daiyu asked Qiu Qingyu to help keep Xichun, she had already considered the future of the two girls. That's not helping, old girl.

But there has been no movement in the past few years. Firstly, it is not suitable for Qiu Qingyu to discuss marriage with others during the filial piety period of the Supreme Emperor. Second, he wants to see whether the character of the two girls is worthy of Qiu Qingyu's help.

But in the past few years, Li Lin and Xichun's words and deeds have been somewhat speculative with Daiyu, and even Qiu Qingyu has a good impression of them. They are indeed two good girls, so they are willing to think about them.

However, the identities of Li Lin and Xichun are indeed problematic.

Li Lin is an orphan girl, and her only younger brother is missing. It is not an exaggeration to secretly say that she is a daughter of extinct family. Although the family property was recovered, there were a lot of people who lost it to the Li clan, but not many left.

But Xichun is even worse, her brother and nephew are notorious, and the family is full of filth. If she hadn't been raised in Rongguo Mansion since she was a child, and Li Lin and Daiyu persuaded her, Xichun would really have to hang herself with a rope, or She became a monk and often accompanied the Qingdeng Ancient Buddha, if it were not for the identities of Qiu Qingyu and Daiyu to support her, it would not be impossible for Xichun to marry someone like Xue Pan as his successor.

That's why Qiu Qingyu made it clear to them frankly from the very beginning that although this Xiang family was suitable for their temperament, there was no need to think about it.There are many rules in reading people, and they value reputation and family style. No matter how good Li Lin and Xichun are, they must look at the reputation of their family members behind them, and Li Lin and Xichun's relatives... don't mention it.They won't help them find any prominent family background, such people pay attention to status and family benefits, even if they marry them home for the identity of Qiu Qingyu's righteous daughters, I'm afraid they don't have much respect in my heart.Especially in the gate of the mansion, there are many Yingyingyanyans, and there are many maids who have other thoughts. If one's status cannot be suppressed, it is easy to be bullied by the maids who are so embarrassed, and life will still be difficult.

Xichun and Li Lin also knew in their hearts that they had nothing to complain about.

During those years in Jia's house, they had seen enough clean and unclean things in the inner courtyard of the back house, so there was no need to try it again.

What Qiu Qingyu planned to tell Li Lin and Xichun were Zhuang Ye's two young generals, Xu Ming, Lieutenant of Zhaowu, who was on the sixth rank, and Guo Ze, captain of Zhenwei, who was on the sixth rank.

These two people were born as bitter children, and their current status is due to their unafraid of sweating and bloodshed, and they have fought with one knife and one gun. They have solid military exploits.

Such an identity is really not very high.When Qiu Qingyu told Li Lin and Xichun, she also paid attention to their expressions. If there was any reluctance, it would not matter.

Speaking of these two candidates, Qiu Qingyu also deliberated for a long time before deciding on them, and she didn't just send the two girls away at random.But if Li Lin and Xichun were dissatisfied, Qiu Qingyu felt that they were not worthy of the good boy whom she had carefully selected.

Fortunately, neither Li Lin nor Xi Chunju had any reluctance, because neither of them had elders and female relatives by their side. After hearing what Qiu Qingyu said, apart from being a little shy about talking about their relatives, they were not ashamed of the two men's backgrounds. They didn't show any disdain either, they were all willing to listen to Qiu Qingyu's arrangement.

Seeing this, Qiu Qingyu was also deeply satisfied, and then told the two of them about the details of Xu Ming and Guo Ze.

The warriors got married relatively late, and both of them are now over 20 years old. Li Lin and Xichun have been delayed for a few years, so they are a good match in age.

There are many warriors, but there are Confucian generals, but relatively few. Xu Ming and Guo Ze are not Confucian generals. He has no literary talent, and he can know a few words.Later, when he made military achievements, he pestered the literate military doctors and generals in the army to practice calligraphy and learn the art of war. He was eager to learn, and he was more face-of course, in Zhuang Ye's words, he was more shameless. , the kind of stalker who doesn't take face seriously--then you won't feel ashamed to ask your wife for advice.

This is also a kind of comfort to Li Lin and Xichun, two girls who were brought up under the influence of incense.

Moreover, Xu Ming and Guo Ze don't look obvious now, but they are only in their early twenties after all, they are busy and self-motivated, Zhuang Ye intends to reuse them, and their achievements will not be low in the future.

As for the character and temperament of the two of them, it is not bad if they can fall into Qiu Qingyu's discerning eyes. Qiu Qingyu has been observed for a long time.

Li Lin and Xichun are fine, so Qiu Qingyu asked someone to tell Xu Ming and Guo Ze what they said, but the two were overjoyed, and they promised that the prince and concubine could be matchmakers, and they would marry relatives The adopted daughter of the concubine, such a good thing, other people can't wait for it, even Xu Ming and Guo Ze were held down by their colleagues in the camp and beaten up, and they were given a good drink before they stopped.

Said that the reputation of these two girls' families is not good?Xu Ming and Guo Ze didn't think this was a problem at all.Who doesn't have a few bad relatives?As long as these two girls are good, they can live their lives well. Anyway, no matter how bad the family is, a younger brother is missing, and a family member is not allowed to enter Beijing, but they will not be disturbed, clean.

Anyway, these two girls can fall into the eyes of the princess and be accepted as foster daughters, so there is absolutely no problem with their character.

Among the generals in Zhuang Ye's hands, who has never heard that Princess Cheng Ke and the prince worshiped before the battle?Even the thirty or so people who witnessed this scene with their own eyes back then have now grown into the mainstay of the army. When it comes to this incident, their faces are full of admiration and envy. These rough old men who beat their lives to death still have a very high status in their hearts.

There is absolutely no problem with the girl she chooses!

The marriages between Li Lin and Xu Ming, Xichun and Guo Ze were soon decided together.

When the Jia family left Beijing that year, Qiu Qingyu kept Xichun and Xichun's gengtie with her, and Li Lin's gengtie was by her side, which Xue Baochai guessed.

Just as soon as the marriage was settled, the news of Jia Zhen and Jia Rong's death spread.Even Xichun, who loathes such filthy elder brother and nephew, couldn't help but suffer a lot when he heard the news.

Xue Baochai had just received an invitation at that time, so she naturally declined to go again.Li Lin and Xue Baochai didn't even have friendship, so naturally it was important to be with Xichun.

When you are down and out, you don't care about it, and when you are prosperous, you don't need to pick up the friendship you made up with.

Xue Baochai felt a little regretful, she knew it would happen, so she didn't have to rush to Jia Zhen and Jia Rong, but now it's too late to regret it.

The corpses of Jia Zhen and Jia Rong were restrained by Xichun, and she also decided to help her brother and nephew back to Jinling for burial, and they both died for a year. As a result, her wedding date had to be postponed.

Li Lin has always been very close to Xichun. Back then, Xichun was so kind to her that she survived. In the past few years, they depended on each other for life, and their relationship was even more profound.Tentatively, she begged Qiu Qingyu, thinking that she would also postpone her wedding date, so that she could marry Xichun together.

Qiu Qingyu was not dissatisfied with the choice of the two girls, let alone felt that they didn't know good and bad, but that they valued love and righteousness, and death was like a lamp going out. No matter how you say it, Jia Zhen and Jia Rong were blood relatives in the world. The two closest relatives, if they die unexpectedly, and Xichun still thinks about her own marriage, then it will be cold.

Anyway, it only takes one year for my brother to decline, and it's almost time to prepare for the marriage.

As for Xu Ming and Guo Ze, there is nothing to be dissatisfied with. They can still afford to wait for a year. Such a girl who values ​​affection and affection wins their hearts even more.

But Jia Zhen and Jia Rong died in accidents one after another, such coincidences cannot be ignored.

The management of the Xishan Mine was chaotic, and the guard who "used people's money to eliminate disasters" didn't even think about how to clean up his tail, so Zhuang Yu asked someone to check it out, and the chaos in the Xishan Mine appeared before his eyes. Every year, there are still a lot of people who die unexpectedly or become disabled due to accidental injuries.

When the situation was reported to the imperial court, Emperor Chunyou was furious and ordered strict punishment.After all, the imperial court sentenced people to hard labor instead of the death penalty, so it cannot allow someone to "lynch" Yinding in private. This is a kind of dissatisfaction and provocation to the imperial court and the law.

And Xue Baochai, who was acting as a guide, also failed to fall well. Emperor Chunyou still felt sorry for her that she was going to be a widow for his son at a young age, and his only son was still sick. Jia Zhen's father, who was in hard labor, did it. After careful investigation, it was also found that she sent people to Jinling to spread rumors that Youshi had a lot of silver around him, and the method of killing people with blunt knives made him very proficient.

Emperor Chunyou had no intention of complaining to Jia Zhen's father, let alone clarifying for Youshi, but the impression of Xue Baochai's cruel heart entered the heart of Emperor Chunyou.

His eldest son, Zhuang Wei, was taught by Jiang to be like that, which already made Emperor Chunyou feel extremely regretful. Now Zhuang Wei's only son—a weak son, can never grow up in the hands of such a woman. He would rather be mediocre and kind. You can't use such vicious methods for your own selfishness.If the heart is bigger and restless, I'm afraid there will be another disturbance at that time.

Therefore, Emperor Chunyou asked the queen to point out five nuns to enter the palace of Minjing County to take care of and educate Zhuang Yu. They seemed to pay attention to Zhuang Yu, but in fact they separated Xue Baochai from Zhuang Yu, and only greeted Xue Baochai every morning. When Neng and his mother meet each other, it is very difficult for Xue Baochai to see her son in the rest of the time.

Xue Baochai didn't expect that giving Jia Zhen's father a moment of anger would cause such consequences, and she regretted it so much, but now it's too late to regret it, so she can only keep her own place, hoping that one day the empress will change her view of her, Give her back her son.

Xue Baochai, who was impatient because of her son's affairs, didn't realize that her natal family began to have other schemes behind her back.
