[Red Chamber] I just want to be a dummy
Chapter 86
The more nervous Shi Shi was, the more he kept the eldest girl from speaking out, the more everyone knew that Shi Shi must have a problem.
Jia Daishan had also heard about the affairs of the Wang family before, but now, Jia Daishan just said with a sullen face: "You sit here and don't make a sound, big girl, don't be afraid, speak well."
The eldest girl is also polite, seeing that Jia Daishan is willing to make decisions for herself, she touched the tears on her face with a handkerchief, saluted Jia Fu and Jia Shefu and said:
"Originally, I shouldn't have made such a fuss on the good days of Big Brother Fu and Big Brother, but I really can't help it. Please forgive Brother Fu and Brother She."
Seeing what the eldest girl said, Jia Jing's expression softened a lot.
Because he was born again, so Jia Jing has always been very superstitious.Especially on this kind of day, Jia Jing naturally didn't want to disturb Jia Fu's luck with anything he didn't want to do.
Originally, Jia Jing still felt angry, but the big girl was like this, which made Jia Jing feel that he was a little stingy just now.
It turned out that the Shi family and historians couldn't find great Confucianists, and even if they found them, none of them were willing to come to Rongguo Mansion to enlighten such a yellow-mouthed child like Jia Zheng.
Shi wanted to try his wife's diplomacy, and learned about it from the handkerchief handovers and wives of other officials she knew.
Originally, she was reluctant to go out for everything these few days. After all, Jia Daishan suddenly took in two skinny horses at this time, which made her feel ashamed, and also worried that she would be laughed at in front of those wives who showed off their lives.
Except for the matter of the Mrs. Wang's family, it is true that some female family members who came from the historian family were neglected among the female family members.
But Shi's status is there. He is not only the daughter of the Shi family, but also Shihou's only sister.Her husband is still Rong Guogong Jia Daishan, a celebrity in front of her today.
Just relying on the status of her husband's family, Epic can play well in front of the female relatives.
When everyone saw Shi Shi coming out to socialize, they didn't dare to mention Mrs. Wang's family and Jia Daishan's skinny horse in front of her, but chatted with Shi Shi about gossip.
It is said that the eldest son of the Guozijianjijiujiang family is already seriously ill in bed. According to the doctor, it has only been two years.
According to what Mrs. Jiang meant, she wanted to marry the eldest son as soon as possible, one for the sake of happiness, in case the son could get better.Second, if the eldest son really can't do it, it's also for the sake of the son being able to leave a descendant.
But Mrs. Jiang is very demanding. She also wants this daughter-in-law to be educated and courteous. A girl from a good family is educated and courteous. Who would want to marry like this?So isn't this a delay?
The female relatives told Shi Shi this gossip, just for everyone to get together and laugh at the scholars who claimed to be noble.
After all, civil servants and military generals have always been at odds, and the families of the two families did not get along very well when they met.
But Shi Shi's eyes lit up when he heard it, it was really sleepy and came to the pillow.
No, there happened to be three grown-up concubine daughters in the Rongguo Mansion. When Mrs. Xu was still in charge of things, she was afraid that the granddaughters would become petty under the upbringing of her aunt, so she specially gave each of the three concubine daughters a Nurturing Mammy.
In terms of knowledge and courtesy, the three concubines of my own are not inferior to anyone else.
If he married his concubine daughter into the Shen family, would the Guozijian Jijiu still refuse to teach the son of his in-laws to study?
It just so happened that Shi Shi was worried about the whereabouts of the three concubines?
Those three unsightly concubines lived with their own aunts when they were young, and they didn't show up in front of Shi Shi, but Shi Shi could tolerate them.
However, it is impossible to treat concubines better.
Two brothers, Jia Daihua and Jia Daishan, both grew up under their grandmother's knees. Jia Daihua's wife was settled by the family through marriage, while Jia Daishan was appointed by his grandmother.
What I originally thought was that the Jia family and the Shi family were old relatives, and the Shi family could be considered to have grown up in front of his grandmother, so he knew the basics well.
However, the difference between Jia Daihua and Jia Daishan's two cousins is less than one year. Jia Daihua's eldest son has been born for a long time and is already stumbling around, but Shi Shi hasn't even laid an egg.
Jia Daishan's grandmother felt that the granddaughter-in-law she had chosen was not good, which caused Jia Daishan to have no children.
Out of the desire to make up for her grandson, the old grandmother gave Jia Daishan several beautiful concubines for her next son.
At that time, was Jia Daishan still fighting at the border?Not being able to go home several times throughout the year, it is naturally impossible for Shi to give birth to a son out of thin air.
Now that there are so many beautiful concubines here, Shi Shi's days to see her husband will become less and less.
It may be that the few concubines selected by the old grandmother are easy to bear, and they are pregnant one after another, but Shi Shi still remains silent.
The old grandmother only thought that Shi Shi couldn't lay eggs, and she became more and more harsh on Shi Shi. She didn't mention the rules every day, and even insulted Shi Shi at every turn.
Jia Daishan's three concubines were born at that time. Shi not only hated Jia Daishan's old grandmother, but also the three aunts.
Under such circumstances, how could Shi Shi find a good husband for these concubines?
Shi's original plan was to turn these concubines into old maids, and then find a few more people who want to fill in the houses and marry them off.
But the reputation of the girls of the Shi family is not very good now, Shi Hou and his wife also urged the Shi family to arrange these concubines as soon as possible, so as not to hurt the reputation of the Shi family because of these concubine daughters.
After Shi Shi heard about Guozijian's sacrifice to Jiujiang's family, she suddenly felt enlightened. Why would she go all out to ruin her own reputation and keep the concubine daughter as an old maid.
It's better to marry the concubine girls to someone who is glamorous on the outside but dirty on the inside, so that he can get a good reputation.
Although the eldest girl is a concubine, she has good looks and manners, and she is the eldest daughter of the Duke.
This Mrs. Shen fell in love with her at a glance. Even if the eldest son was in good health, she would be willing to hire such a girl for her son, not to mention that the son is only a few years old now.
The eldest girl's aunt originally thought that Shi Shi deliberately teased the eldest girl, intending to raise the eldest girl into an old girl, so that the eldest girl would not show up to the eldest girl when she was married.
Originally, she planned to use her old face to beg Jia Daishan or Mrs. Xu.
Now, such a good marriage fell on the eldest girl, and the aunt almost fainted with joy.
Although the eldest girl is the daughter of the Duke, she is a concubine after all, and although the Guozijian Jijiu is only a fourth-rank official, she is noble after all.Moreover, the man is still the eldest son, and the eldest girl can be the kind of grandmother who can be the head of the house as soon as she enters the house.
Originally, Auntie was also afraid that Mrs. Shi was hiding some bad intentions, so she deliberately gave away the monthly bills she had saved for a long time, so that people could inquire about the money.
But what my aunt asked people to find out, it was what Shi wanted my aunt to know.
For example, the eldest son of the Shen family entered school at the age of 16 (yes, he was considered a good young man before he fell ill.)
For example, the Shen family's family rules are very strict, and only a man in his forties who has no children can take a concubine. After my aunt heard about this, she only thought that the Shen family's son was a good match.
Although Auntie herself is just a concubine, whose main wife likes to put two concubines in front of her.
However, what my aunt didn't know was that the Shen family's family rules were not only strict in accepting concubines, but also strict in observance of chastity.
Whether it is the daughter of the Shen family or the daughter-in-law of the Shen family, if her husband dies, she can only observe the festival for her husband.
The aunt only thought it was Shi Shi's painstaking efforts, and specially asked the eldest girl to serve Shi Shi more often, so that she could honor Shi Shi's aunt before she got married.
The eldest girl was originally docile, originally Shi Shi didn't like concubines like them in front of them, so she rarely went in front of Shi Shi to annoy Shi Shi.
Now my aunt asked her to serve Mrs. Shi more, so she went to Rongxi Hall a few more times.
However, after running too much, the eldest girl felt that something was wrong.
Shi Shi was not as kind as his aunt said, and he still didn't treat her much better. It is common to make rules, and he wished that everything would be against her.
And the maids and women of Rongxitang all looked at her with pity and pity.
The eldest girl is not stupid, if the maids can pity her, it is only her own marriage.
The eldest girl ruthlessly sent her nanny out to inquire.
It just so happened that Mrs. Shen's family got carried away because of the special flattery of Mrs. Shi, the Duke's wife, and that's how the eldest girl found out the truth.
Because Jia Daishan, the father, has never cared about their daughters, so the eldest girl thinks that Jia Daishan is afraid that she will not take care of her daughter.
That's why the eldest girl chose such a time to explain this matter.
After listening to the eldest girl's narration, Jia Daishan's face turned livid, and he dropped his cup on the spot and asked Shi Shi: "Is this the good marriage you told me about the eldest girl?"
Jia Daishan really didn't have much control over his children, and most of them were relieved to let Shi Shi take care of them.
Jia Daishan also asked about the eldest girl's marriage at the time, and Shi's patted his chest at that time to ensure that it was a good marriage.
But at that time, it was Shi who only said that he was the son of Jijiu of Guozijian, and only said that the man had already been selected as a scholar.
Jia Daishan thought it was good, so he let Shi Shi handle it.This is also the rule in the big family. Except for the eldest son or the one who is particularly favored, other people's marriages are decided by the head mother.
"What did I do wrong? As the daughter of the Duke, since she has enjoyed the blessings of the family, she has to sacrifice for the family. The marriage of a concubine's daughter is not for the benefit of the family."
Jia Jing was almost laughed out of anger, the marriage of the children in the family really had to be for the benefit of the family.
But the premise is that this marriage is not based on the premise of being a cheap and dead child.And it was for the interests of the family, not for personal interests.
When a big girl marries, she has to be a widow, and what does she get in exchange?Is it Jia Zhengde's advice from Guozijian's sacrificial wine?
Jia Zheng is just the second son of the first line, and to put it bluntly, he will be a side branch in the future.In exchange for a girl's life for an unsupportable Ah Dou, the Jia family's reputation has to be added.
Where does Jia Zheng have such a big face?How could the Guozijian Jijiu have such a big face.
Jia Jingyou remembered how many years later in her previous life, the eldest girl's heart was ashamed.
Jia Daishan had also heard about the affairs of the Wang family before, but now, Jia Daishan just said with a sullen face: "You sit here and don't make a sound, big girl, don't be afraid, speak well."
The eldest girl is also polite, seeing that Jia Daishan is willing to make decisions for herself, she touched the tears on her face with a handkerchief, saluted Jia Fu and Jia Shefu and said:
