Whose Evil in the Red Chamber

Tanchun's marriage was not high or low, and finally married Lin Ruhai's disciple Zhang Wenzhi to fill the house.Zhang Wenzhi's wife died of illness, leaving behind a four-year-old son.After Zhang Wenzhi gave birth to his wife's filial piety, the Zhang family's parents made a fuss about continuing his marriage.

Although the Zhang family is not a famous family, and Zhang Wenzhi is just a student from a poor family, but now Zhang Wenzhi has been worshiped as the deputy capital imperial envoy and also walks in the study. In the eyes of the government, he is a rare and elegant talent.Although Tanchun's marriage used to be a continuation to fill in the house, after all, it is not as good as the original spouse, but with the current declining status of the Rongguo Mansion and Tanchun's status as a concubine, it is not humiliating to be able to marry such a noble family as a continuation.

Jia Zheng was very satisfied with Zhang Wenzhi's talent and character. When Tanchun heard that he was doing house filling, he was very reluctant at first. Later, seeing that he couldn't find a more suitable family than the Zhang family, he heard his younger brother Jia Huan talk about the house. Although the censor was a bit older, he was gentle and handsome, personable, gentle and courteous, and even more talented, so Tanchun also moved his mind and no longer resisted this marriage.In the end, the Jia family married the Zhang family, and Tanchun married Zhang Wenzhi as the sequel.

The Zhang family has a simple population. Zhang's father and Zhang's mother were originally servants of the Lin family manor. Later, because their son Zhang Wenzhi was favored by Lin Ruhai and accepted as his disciple, they were exempted from slavery. Apart from Zhang Wenzhi's son, the couple only had Cui'er as a daughter.After Zhang Wenzhi became an official, the Zhang family moved to the capital. Lin Ruhai helped build the house back then.It is precisely because of Lin Ruhai's kindness to Zhang Wenzhi that Zhang Wenzhi was so embarrassed between Lin Ruhai and Jingxuan, and finally chose to lean towards his master Lin Ruhai.

Now that Cui'er is married, apart from Zhang's father and Zhang's mother, the Zhang family only has a four-year-old son left by Zhang Wenzhi's original wife. Zhang Wenzhi also has only one housemate in Zhang Wenzhi's yard, who is his original wife's favored dowry girl.

Such a simple situation of the Zhang family is nothing to Tanchun who has experienced many things in the Rongguo Mansion, such as Wang Xifeng and Mrs. Wang's open and secret struggles.

The Zhang family's parents didn't know the situation of the Rongguo Mansion. They came from ordinary people. In the past, a high-ranking family like the Guogong Mansion was unattainable in their eyes. When Zhang Wenzhi got married back then, he got the daughter of a Hanlin family who was also from a poor family. Unexpectedly, Xu Xian could marry a young lady of the Duke's Mansion, which made Tan Chun's position in Zhang's family a bit detached.

The in-laws are not difficult to get along with, and the only roommate is also a sullen person, who doesn't seem to cause trouble like Aunt Zhou in the house, and I don't see how much my husband Zhang Wenzhi likes, so Tanchun is more and more relieved.The four-year-old boy is still ignorant, although he is not close to her right now, but he is a child after all, he may not be close to her after a good teaching.

Tanchun thinks very clearly, the Zhang family is not a big family, and does not involve any family property inheritance. If the children want to get ahead, they have to pass the imperial examination to obtain a scholar. There is no need for her to treat her original child harshly. .If she has a child in the future, she should teach them well, and if she can be a father and son in the same school, wouldn't it be a good story, wouldn't it?

Thinking of her husband Zhang Wenzhi's gentle and polite appearance, Tanchun felt a little blush, the other's appearance was much better than she imagined, he didn't look like a widowed man, on the contrary, he looked like the sentimental scholar in the play.

Among the sisters of the younger generation, the youngest, Xichun, got married in the south. She moved to Jinling with the East Mansion since she was a child. Compared with her father who was practicing Taoism in the gymnasium all day, she still followed her elder brother Jia Zhen and sister-in-law Youshi. Live around.

Although the Jia family made its fortune in the south of the Yangtze River, the foundation of the family in the south of the Yangtze River has long been gone. The close friends of the past, such as the Zhen family, have all been wiped out. The Jia family has no support. Going to a merchant to be a low-class person, the Dongfu simply has a lot of land. With these, Jia Zhen can be regarded as a wealthy country gentry, but compared with the luxurious life in the capital, the current wealth is also inferior. Not worth mentioning anymore.

Xichun has no impression of the so-called life in central Beijing that her brother and sister-in-law often cherish. She came to Jiangnan with her family when she was very young, and her childhood memories are blurred. Worrying life does not feel unsatisfactory.

Because she is about the same age as Daiyu, and the two families have relatives, she often goes to the Lin family with Youshi. Compared with the richness of the Lin family mansion that Youshi admires very much, Xichun still prefers the rural life full of wildness in her heart. Although the mansion is majestic, it always feels too restrained. Even though there are elegant garden paths and blue lake koi, compared with the natural countryside, it still lacks a natural flavor.

When he was 15 years old, a squire Qian's family in Jiangning came to propose a marriage. The uncle of the Qian family was the cousin of Jia Rong's wife. He followed his parents to Jia's house once, and happened to catch a glimpse of Xichun who came back from the stream with a little girl. , I fell in love with it at that time.

The Qian family is also a gentry family. The young master of the Qian family has the status of a scholar. He did not take the Jinshi exam again, but helped the family take care of the general affairs.The Qian family is rich and lives in the south of the Yangtze River. Compared with the Jia family who has a descendant of Duke Ning, Jiangnan actually values ​​the Qian family more.Jia Zhen also knew it in her heart, so although she was not satisfied that Mr. Qian was just a scholar, and the Qian family didn't have any officials, she didn't refuse.

The betrothal gift from the Qian family was generous, Jia Zhen was just such a younger sister, and her son was married and had children, so she did not hesitate to buy a decent dowry for Xichun.Xichun's marriage, although not a red makeup, is enough to make many girls envious.

As time went by, the younger sisters all got married one after another, and within a few years, they had children one after another and became mothers.As for the older generation, Jia's mother is in good health. Seeing that her most precious grandson Baoyu married her granddaughter Daiyu, the two children became closer together. With Lin Ruhai's help, Baoyu now has the reputation of a scholar. Just waiting for a further title on the gold list.

Mother Jia was satisfied, and she was waiting to hug her great-grandson. The eldest son who was not worried now had no power, power or money, and could not cause any disturbances. I am very satisfied, and it goes without saying that my body and bones are getting stronger and better for the rest of my life.

In the year of Jia's mother's [-]th birthday, the Jia family decided to hold a large banquet to celebrate the birthday of the old birthday star, and the Jia family's children and relatives who were able to come back from the capital or other places also rushed to Jinling.

Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng had rushed back from the capital early to help Zhang Luo's birthday banquet. Although Wang Xifeng was not with Jiamu all the year round, her eloquent mouth disappeared within a few days. The fact that she was born made Jia's mother smile all over her face, and even the Jia family in Jinling praised her, saying that Second Grandma Lian was very sharp and capable.

Mrs. Xing has always been disregarded in front of Jia Mu, and she is not very close to Wang Xifeng, and now she dare not provoke Wang Xifeng, but she feels that the aura of the daughter-in-law here is becoming more and more difficult to provoke.It has to be said that Mrs. Xing is still very keen in seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.

Wang Xifeng organized this birthday banquet with great splendor, and Bao's second grandmother, Daiyu, took full-time responsibility for receiving the female family members who came to celebrate.

After Mrs. Wang passed away, Jia Zheng was not a continuation. The Jia family in the left and right capitals was just an empty shell. He didn't feel ashamed to ask his nephew and daughter-in-law Wang Xifeng for money. It was Jia's mother who asked someone to send some gifts after knowing that her son had lost his errand.

When Tanchun married Zhang Wenzhi to fill the house, Zhang Wenzhi saw that his father-in-law was not doing well, so he opened up the relationship and found a job for Jia Zheng in the Chongwen Museum. For those who don't understand, working in Chongwen Museum, although it can't be compared with the position of a member of the Ministry of Industry, it is better than being idle at home and relying on the old mother's self-sufficiency to live.

After Jia Huan and Jia Lan had achieved fame, they would naturally have their salaries, and women such as Aunt Zhao, Aunt Zhou, and Li Wan also did needlework to manage the house, and Jia Zheng's life improved a little.

This time Jia Mu's [-]th birthday, as Jia Mu's most beloved son, Jia Zheng naturally asked for a leave of absence from the academy, planning to take the family back to Jinling to celebrate his birthday, and also went to his brother-in-law Lin Ruhai who was also in the capital. Send a letter to ask if the Lin family is traveling with you.

Since the new emperor came to the throne, Lin Ruhai, who had been held in the south of the Yangtze River, finally had the opportunity to be transferred back to the capital. Compared with Emperor Huan Chen, who was upset when he saw Lin Ruhai, the new emperor didn't like Lin Ruhai, because Lin Ruhai's ability was outstanding. The new emperor puts a lot of emphasis on Lin Ruhai.

Finally got the reuse, how can Lin Ruhai not do his best, and now Lin Ruhai has finally got his wish to join the cabinet and pay homage to the new emperor, and he has devoted himself to the new emperor.This time for Jia Mu's birthday, Jia Min, who missed her mother and daughter, naturally wanted to go back to the south of the Yangtze River. Lin Ruhai was busy with business and couldn't leave. At this time, he entrusted Jia Zheng to take Jia Min with him, and he also took care of him along the way.

Jia Zheng naturally readily agreed, and at this time the two sisters Yuan Chun and Tan Chun also sent people to reply to Jia Zheng. Bring it to grandma.Tanchun, on the other hand, traveled with Zhang Wenzhi and Jia Zheng and others.

The whole family left the capital for the south of the Yangtze River a long time in advance. Zhang Wenzhi talked with Jia Zheng, and by the way, he also tested the knowledge of Jia Huan and Jia Lan. Neither Aunt Zhao nor Aunt Zhou accompanied them. Li Wan and Jia Min and Tanchun gossiped in it. Tanchun's daughter, Zhang Ying, was seven years old now.

When they arrived in Jinling, there was still half a month before the birthday banquet. The Lin family had a house in Jinling, and the Jia family's house was too tight to live in. Jia Min called everyone to live in the Lin family first.After settling everyone's accommodation and changing their dusty clothes, they went to see Jia Mu's house.

Jia Zheng took Jia Huan and Jia Lan to bow down to Jia Mu. Although Jia Mu didn't love these two strange grandsons and great-grandsons as much as she did to Baoyu, they were blood relatives and they were both born to each other. Not vulgar and famous, Mother Jia also gave a lot of good things with a kind smile on her face.

Baoyu was also very happy to see his handsome younger brother and nephew. He asked what books he had read recently and what interesting things happened in the capital. Xuan presented gifts to her uncle and elder brother. Both Jia Huan and Jia Lan knew of Jia Xuan's existence and prepared the gifts. Both of them gave Jia Xuan the Four Treasures of the Study and the Golden Scholar.

After Jia Xuan said a few auspicious words, Baoyu sent her to the back to meet Daiyu and the new sisters.Jia Xuan looked at Baoyu, Jia Huan and Jia Lan who were talking happily, and complained in her heart, what kind of time and space is this?Didn't it mean that Jia Huansheng's description is wretched and Jia Lan's personality is withdrawn?Why did he look at Jia Huan's eyebrows and eyes, which were three points similar to his father Baoyu, his eyes were clear and there was no trace of obscenity.And Jia Lan's voice is loud, his back is straight, and he talks about poetry and prose very decently, without any sign of withdrawn personality.

Jia Xuan was full of thoughts, and went all the way to the inner house. As soon as she entered the house, she was hugged by her grandmother Jia Min with glowing eyes. Her little head was pressed against her chest, and Jia Xuan's face turned red. Only then did she break free and greet these aunts, cousins ​​and cousins. Jia Xuan was very excited when she saw these beautiful aunts in the inner room.

In this world of the Red Mansion, if you haven’t seen the Twelve Beauties, it’s a waste of time to come to the Red Mansion!Thinking back when he found out that his mother was Lin Daiyu and his father was Jia Baoyu, he was so frightened that he passed out and reincarnated again. Now he has adapted to his identity very much, and he wholeheartedly hopes to see more legends The girls in the Red Chamber.

It's a pity that Jia's family declined too early, and it's a pity that he missed the opportunity to meet Qingwen, Yuanyang, Zijuan and other beautiful maids.Whenever she thinks of this, Jia Xuan feels that the well-known Lin Jingxuan from the time traveler is not kind, even if you are crooked, you can't be so unsympathetic, this is the Red Mansion, the Red Mansion!At any rate, I will save the daughters of the Red Mansion, right?

Jia Xuan herself was a modern person who traveled through time, so she also thought that Jing Xuan was in the same situation, but he didn't know that Jing Xuan was not a modern person, and she didn't know anything about the so-called Red Mansion.

Daiyu naturally had no way of knowing these thoughts in Jia Xuan's mind, but it was rare for her to see her son who had always been so calm and not like an ordinary child showing such a shy expression, pursing his lips and smiling happily.Yingchun's husband's family is in Gusu, not far from Jinling, and her husband has a good relationship with Baoyu, so Yingchun often sees Daiyu, and is very familiar with Jia Xuan. Seeing Jia Xuan like this, she smiles along with Daiyu.

It was the first time Tanchun saw Jia Xuan, and thought that the child Yu Tuaner seemed cute, and he gave a lot of greetings with a smile. Jia Xuan received the gifts today, but she was soft-hearted, and she couldn't be more skillful in saying thank you gifts up.

Xichun's son Qian Feng is only four years old now, standing on the ground next to Jia Xuan's head and a half, and greets Jia Xuan with a childish voice. Giving this little cousin a gift, Qian Feng held a golden little golden curly in his white and tender hands, and he looked more and more like the golden boy in the painting, which made the adults laugh again.

Looking at these children, Li Wan's heart, which had always been calm, became much more relaxed. When her Lan'er got married and had children in the future, and she lived such a happy life with her grandchildren, that would be the real family happiness.

While talking, there were footsteps outside, Wang Xifeng's daughter, Qiaojieer, led Xue Baochai's mother and daughter here, Qiaojieer's temperament was exactly the same as Wang Xifeng's, although she was new to Jiangnan, she followed Wang Xifeng's side to help prepare for the birthday Banquet, not afraid of stage fright.

Xue Baochai married into Wang Qi's cousin's house in Jinling, and got along well with Daiyu, and was related to Jia's family, so she often visited the house, and from time to time, she and Daiyu went to the Hou's mansion to meet the old lady and Wang Qi's wife, the Liu family. Speaking of which, the old lady of the Hou Mansion likes Daiyu, who is beautiful and beautiful, and treats Daiyu's mother and son to be close. Although Jingxuan doesn't like to see Lin Ruhai, she has some concerns about this "sister" Lin Daiyu, and entrusts Wang Qi and the old man People help take care of them, so the relationship between the two families is getting closer.

Baochai originally planned to come to Jia's house on the day of the birthday banquet, but when she heard that the married aunts of Jia's family had all returned to Jinling, she brought her daughter here. Resembling a mother, her temperament is also very calm, like a big sister. After greeting all the wives present, Daiyu smiled and asked Baochai, "Why didn't you bring Lang'er here?"

Daiyu was talking about Baochai's youngest son, Wang Lang, who is now five years old. Baochai sighed and said, "That monkey fell from a tree two days ago, so he almost didn't break his leg. Confine him at home, don't allow him to go out, raise him well, and restrain his temper."

Both Baochai and her husband are very calm people, and their daughter Wang Qiong is also a steady child, but his son Wang Lang is not like his father, but he is very similar to his uncle Wang Qixiao. He has a restless temper and climbs trees. , Digging out the bird's nest and so on all day without stopping, it gave Baochai a headache.

The father-in-law and the mother-in-law loved the little grandson very much, and they became more and more indulgent. This time, they almost broke their legs. The two elders were also terrified, so they let go of their hands, and asked Baochai to teach the brat severely.

Jia Xuan's eyes lit up when he heard this. He had seen Wang Lang's heartless brat for a long time and knew that he was not pleasing to the eye. This time the brat was grounded, and he felt extremely at ease.

On the day of the birthday banquet, all the male members of the Jia family kowtowed to their ancestors, and Mother Jia looked at Jia She, Jia Zheng, Jia Lian, Jia Baoyu, Jia Huan, Jia Lan and Jia Xuan who were kneeling below, After saying hello again and again, there were tears in his eyes: "It would be great if the old man could see this scene. Now our family is counting on you children."

Seeing that the two brothers Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng did not live up to their expectations, and the Duke’s mansion was in decline, Jia’s mother now put all her hopes on Baoyu’s generation, especially when both Baoyu and Jia Huan had achieved fame. Jia Lan, the grandson of the family, was also born as a scholar, and Jia's mother's hope became stronger and stronger.

Jia Xuan knelt down, looking at her uncle Jia Huan with a firm expression, her cousin Jia Lan with an excited expression, and her father Baoyu who was still somewhat dazed in her eyes. sigh.The old ancestor was counting on Baoyu's father to revive the family business, but with his father's temperament, I'm afraid it would be difficult for the old ancestor to realize his wish.

Just as Jia Xuan expected, although Baoyu left the Rongguo Mansion in Beijing since she was a child, and was not surrounded by girls when she grew up, her temperament is a little less powdery.Lin Ruhai was the one who taught and enlightened me when I was studying, but I didn't have the idea that scholars are national thieves.

But he didn't have such a strong desire to "move ahead". His ancestors always told him about revitalizing the Rongguo Mansion, and he nodded in response, but he felt heavy in his heart and always wanted to avoid such a burden.

Especially after marrying Daiyu, he found that they shared similar interests. Every time the husband and wife talked about poetry and painting, he felt very relaxed and comfortable, and he became more and more resistant to being admitted to the officialdom.

However, he didn't dare to speak out, suppressing the dissatisfaction in his heart. In the end, he was admitted as a second-class Jinshi. With Lin Ruhai's help, he entered the Hanlin Academy. Not motivated, and Baoyu's son Jia Xuan is talented and intelligent, showing his desire for an official career, Lin Ruhai also transferred Baoyu's supervision to Jia Xuan.

Indeed, compared to Baoyu's "not motivated", Jia Xuan is extremely motivated. She passed the boy's exam at the age of ten and got the top of the case.The Jia family placed high hopes on this little child prodigy, and Lin Ruhai also invited an official Confucian to teach Jia Xuan.

In the end, Jia Xuan became the youngest No. [-] champion in the history of the dynasty, and was paraded across the street so unsatisfied that everyone onlookers envied her.

Faced with the envious eyes of his colleagues, Baoyu thought: his son has stepped into an official career, will he be able to retire and go home to accompany Daiyu to talk about poetry and painting?

Finally, after Jia Xuan talked with her father Baoyu very obediently, Baoyu resigned without hesitation, returned home cheerfully, and lived the life of a fairy couple living in the city with Daiyu. Serving flowers and plants, enjoying and reading poems and songs, life is so uncomfortable.

And the young champion Lang Jia Xuan couldn't laugh or cry in his heart. He didn't want to act like a precocious person who was wise and close to a monster, but seeing that the two of them finally got married were not happy, he also felt in his heart. uncomfortable.That's all, the stubborn stone who makes up the sky is not suitable for official career, who told him to become the son of these two in this life?It's all about being filial to your parents as a son of others.

He should also enjoy the life of the privileged class in ancient times, such as conferring princes and ministers, which man doesn't have such thoughts in his heart?In the future, he should be a prime minister like his grandfather, and marry a beautiful wife and concubine, this is the winner in life!

Jia Xuan thought very well, but who knows if he can enjoy the blessing of Qiren?
