A Concubine of Salted Fish in Qing Dynasty [Red House]

Sun Yuanlu followed Yunyan on a study tour and went south together. Their destination was the same, and they were like-minded friends.

He knew that Yun Yan came here to meet his sister, but he didn't expect her sister to have such a big background.

His elder sister is a concubine, but not an ordinary concubine, but a good concubine of a third-rank senior family, or a concubine who gave birth to the only son of a senior family.

If Master Lin is willing to mention one or two points, even if brother Yun fails to pass the Jinshi exam, he doesn't have to worry about his future.

If he passed the exam, it would be even more serious. The prospect of a Jinshi will definitely be greater than that of a Juren.

Furthermore, Master Lin doesn't have any close brothers, so he will pay more attention to his son's blood relationship.

Sun Yuanlu saw it clearly, but he didn't intend to take the opportunity to cling to it.

He has his pride.

This is also the reason why Yun Yan went on a study tour with him and did not hide it from him when he came to find his sister.

Lin Ruhai also welcomed Yun Yan.

He has been an official outside the country for many years, and he has not returned to the capital for many years. Although he still has classmates and others in the capital, their relationship is not so close, and some things are not convenient to write on paper. The Yun family is different.

The daughter of the Yun family is the biological mother of his children.

The father and son of the Yun family had his support and guidance all the way through the imperial examination journey.

They are on the same ground.

In fact, Lin Ruhai was also a little surprised.

Now the three members of the Yun family, father and son, are two candidates and one Jinshi.

Give Yunyan a few more years, and the possibility of becoming a Jinshi with one stroke is not small.

And further up, their grandfather was just a scholar.

Tracing back to the source, he was born as an ordinary farmer.

With such a background, they were able to get to where they are today. Although they had his guidance, it was because of their own efforts to make progress.

Moreover, the two brothers of the Yun family are still young, so they may not be able to go any further in the future.

In a few years, it's time for Chenyu to start school, so he can support each other in court.

Such a young talent reminded Aunt Mei of her sixth younger sister who was born on the same day.

She only found out later that her good sister had thought of being the master's concubine.

However, my aunt persuaded my father to dispel the idea, and finally found a juror for her. The stepmother who entered the door was the stepmother of the two daughters, but she had no son. good.

Dad was betting that that Juren would have a good future, but unfortunately, he has not been admitted to Jinshi yet.

And after the family wealth became richer, the man bought maidservants one by one from left to right to go back.

Although the sixth younger sister is the main wife, her life is far less relaxed than her.

The only good thing is that the sixth sister gave birth to a son.

She even wrote a letter to show off to herself.

Aunt Mei couldn't help but think of her daughter, they belonged to Qi.

She is going to participate in the draft in the future. With her daughter's character and appearance, she is not sure what future she will have in the future.

In that case, even if she doesn't have a son, having a high-married daughter is enough to make her proud.

If you are lucky, you will be accused of going to the royal grandson's house. Thinking of this, Aunt Mei can't help but feel a little crazy.

If so, what an honor!Even if she doesn't have a son, no one dares to underestimate her or her daughter.

Almost front and rear, here Yun Yan just said that Jia Zhu was not in good health, and it didn't take long for them to receive news from Jia's family that Jia Zhu had passed away.

Many doctors and imperial physicians were invited, but none of them saved him.

Jia's family fell into a gloomy mist, not only the master above fell ill a lot, even the subordinates were downcast.

There are three sons from the third generation of the Jia family, and the most promising one is the uncle Zhu. The second master Lian didn't like to read books or dance with knives and guns since he was a child, and Baoyu is still young and can't see the future. What will be the future.

Although it is said that he had a piece of precious jade in his mouth when he was born, so he got his current name, but many people don't believe the news that this piece of precious jade is born.

That piece of jade was hanging around Jia Baoyu's neck, how could it fit in a baby's mouth with that size?

In addition, this Baoyu is now five years old. Looking left and right, I can't find any mystery about Jia Baoyu. He has already shown his traits of liking beauty at a young age.

In a certain place, after the news of Jia Zhu's death was confirmed, the scarlet monk and the lame Taoist breathed a sigh of relief.

That's right, they went around to other places, and found that the Lin family had changed. Now the Lin family is completely different from the fortune-telling results. Others have more or less minor changes, but it doesn't affect the overall situation.

Now Jia Zhu has passed away, which is the same as the result of divination.

Scarlet-headed monk: "What should I do?"

The lame Taoist shook his head and sighed, "What can I do?"

They have delayed for so long, and now the people above don't know that such a big change has taken place in the Lin family.

It can't be delayed any longer, it must be reported to Xiangu, but what should they say?

And how to avoid punishment?

And they don't know what went wrong until now. Was their divination result wrong, or was someone helping Mrs. Lin change her life?

If you don't do something, it will be terrible if you continue to develop.

Scarlet-headed monk: "Do you have another way?"

They went to investigate the mysterious Master Cicada, thinking that someone from the same path was here to make trouble, but after inquiring for so long, there was no news.

The lame Taoist stomped his feet bitterly: "No, report it honestly, and focus on the master Cicada."

They had no other choice but to notify them. Fortunately, there was still time. I don't know what Xiangu would do?

-

Yun Yan stayed in Anlin Mansion for nearly a month. In this nearly one month, he didn't spend a long time in Lin Mansion. He spent most of the time walking around with his companions, and was even taken by Lin Ruhai to experience the Yamen for a few days.

Every time he came back from going out, he would tell Yun Shuyao what he had seen and heard during this period.

He experienced first-hand the conflict between the government and the people.

There were indeed mobs, but in most cases the officials were aggressive.

Ordinary people are still in awe of officials.

He also went to help supervise the work and help more people know the benefits of sweet potatoes.

Sweet potatoes are not easy to preserve, they cannot be taxed compared with rice and wheat, and they are not as delicious, but their biggest advantages can make up for everything.

It's just that many people are used to being conservative and don't believe that there is such a high-yield thing.

But Yunyan also knows that as long as there are farmers nearby to plant, and everyone can see the yield per mu when harvesting, there is basically no need to worry.

It is always the first opening that is the hardest to open.

Yun Shuyao understood.

High-yield crops such as sweet potato and corn began to be introduced in the Ming Dynasty, but the promotion was not so simple and quick.

In some places, news is unimaginably blocked.

Even in the 21st century, there are still primitive tribes wearing animal skins in the mountains, which is unimaginable.

As soon as Yun Yan left on the front foot, someone came to report on the back foot.

The niece of the old lady's natal family followed her husband to take office, and came to visit her aunt passing by here.

This is also a place that makes the old lady proud. Five years ago, if the niece really gave birth to a baby girl, she would send someone there in advance to make preparations, otherwise she would die of dystocia.

This time she specially sent someone to go. Although the dystocia was still there, nothing major happened, and the mother and daughter were safe.

Speaking of which, their Lin family and Xie family all had ill-fated fate.

If any of his nephews or nieces were still alive in the dream world, and someone could help mention Daiyu, maybe her fate would change.

It's different now, the old lady is naturally happy.

And speaking of it, I haven't seen Ruozhen for many years, and the old lady asked Yingyu Luoyu to make relevant preparations.

"Your cousin's family is coming, and they will come with you, as well as your cousin's cousins. Our house is going to be lively."

Xie Ruozhen's husband's family name is Dong, and now he has been promoted to Zhizhou from Wupin. He worked in the northwest for many years, and now he is going south to take up his post.

They can be said to have come to the end of their hardships. The place in the northwest is bitter and cold. Although the place they were transferred to this time is not the prosperous Jiangnan, it is not far from Jiangnan.

The Dong family, like the Lin family, and the Xie family where the old lady came from, are all scholarly families.

Not to mention that they are all from a scholarly family, but they have been passed down for several generations.

The old lady is not very happy with this niece and son-in-law. In the dream world, her niece has passed away.

But his uncle is still there, as if there is no such person as Daiyu, he is indifferent.

Whether he is a man or an official, he is mediocre, and he doesn't know how his elder brother took a fancy to him at the beginning.

The Dong family is one of the few relatives of the Lin family.

Xie Ruozhen was promised to the second son of the Dong family, and after so many years of marriage, she gave birth to two daughters and a son.

The eldest daughter is a descendant and is already married.

The eldest son was born as a concubine and is now studying in the academy.

Now following her is her direct son Dong Wenyi, ranking second.

There is also the third lady, Dong Linghe, who is a concubine.

And there is Dong Lingxin, the first daughter born five years ago.

Yingyu and Luoyu cleaned up the yard according to the population of their family.

Make sure they come and stay comfortably.

Although there are people from the Lin clan beside them who are studying together in class, it cannot be said that they are lonely, but the cousins ​​who can come this time are also novel to them.

Lin Ruhai was also happy that his cousin could come, but he felt a little helpless towards his cousin's husband.

It is reasonable to say that we are all relatives, not to mention things like bending the law for personal gain, we are all in the officialdom, taking care of each other, it is not surprising that we exchange some news, but this brother-in-law is not, he is almost deaf to what is going on outside the window If you can fool Taiping, you will fool Taiping.

After being admitted as a Jinshi and becoming an official, I no longer have the self-motivated spirit of the past, and basically rely on my staff and masters to dawdle in my daily life.

So much so that it has only been promoted to the fifth rank until now.

I don't know if we can make him change his temper this time.

The place where he was going to work could not allow him to continue fooling around like this.

That's not in the Northwest.

-

Before they came, Luo Yu heard her grandmother mentioning them repeatedly, and when she really saw them, she was a little surprised.

It's not that the cousin is not good, she looks very kind, and the cousins ​​are also gentle and cute, but this second cousin...

Luo Yu couldn't help frowning, stepped forward half a step to salute, and at the same time reminded: "Second cousin."

When Dong Wenyi saw Yingyu, he didn't even blink his eyes, he was stunned.

Yingyu blushed and lowered her head in embarrassment, the beauty bowed her head, her beauty was incredible, Dong Wenyi's eyes became straighter when she saw it.

Luo Yu greeted him, but he didn't hear him either.

His appearance made the old lady's face a little ugly.

She knew that her granddaughter had indeed followed her aunt's appearance and was even better, but how did the niece raise her children?Just so ignorant?

It's a pity that the kid doesn't know how to read people's eyes, so he leaned forward and said, "Cousin, the two cousins ​​are really fairy-like characters. I don't know if you have anything you like. I brought some things that are common in the Northwest." You guys probably haven’t seen it before, let’s play something fresh…”

That attitude made the old lady see Jia Baoyu in a daze, her dislike for Jia Baoyu was engraved in her bones, her face immediately pulled down, Xie Ruozhen's face was also a little embarrassed, and she secretly rejoiced that her husband followed his cousin outside Talk to the study, otherwise if he sees his son like this, he will definitely be punished again when he goes back.

"Wen Yi, don't be rude, cousin, go to the outer court to meet your uncle." She hurriedly sent him out.

Dong Wenyi stepped back and left.

old lady:"……"

She looked at her niece with hatred.

Xie Ruozhen gave Yingyu and the others a meeting gift in an embarrassing manner, and looked at Yingyu's face several times.

Then the old lady asked Yingyu and the others to take their cousins ​​to the garden to play, and then she started talking: "Having a child is like killing a child, don't you understand this truth?"

Xie Ruozhen picked up the handkerchief, covered his face and cried, "Auntie! It's not like you don't understand my life in those years!"

She hurt her body when she married her eldest daughter, and she couldn't reproduce for many years. Seeing the birth of the eldest son with heart bleeding, she finally got Wen Yi, how could she be cruel to him?

She wished she could give him everything she could!

The old lady said with a straight face: "You love him so much and dote on him?"

Xie Ruozhen didn't take it seriously: "He's still young."

The old lady was speechless.

13 years old, still young?

We're going to be engaged in two years.

Speaking of engagement, Xie Ruozhen's eyes lit up: "Aunt, is Luo Yu engaged?"

Yingyu grew up to be so vicious, she seduced her son's soul away as soon as they met.

If such a daughter-in-law is hired, some people will be angry in the future.

In comparison, Luo Yu is very suitable, and she looks good, but she has an elegant appearance. She is not afraid of spoiling her son. What's even better is that she has a twin brother, the only son of her cousin. , married her, and he would not have to worry about his son's future in the future.
