The Red House of the Concubine of the Jia Family

Time flies, ten years in a blink of an eye

Ten years later, Lu Yan has changed from a seventh-rank member of the Hanlin Academy to a fifth-rank household doctor. Jia Xuan's two sons and one daughter (the eldest son Lu Qi'an, the second son Lu Xin'an, and the daughter Lu Cen) have also grown into teenagers. Slim and elegant.

Over the years, Jia Xuan did not break off contact with Jia's family, but she was not very close either, and they communicated in a casual way.

Jia Xuan and Jia Min still didn't like each other very much, but because of Lin Ruhai's relationship, the two families kept in touch. The exchanges between them are more frequent.

In the evening of winter, there was a wind blowing in the capital, and the cold wind was blowing, which made people feel a little more chill in their hearts.

When Lu Yan came in from the outside, Jia Xuan was watching her mother teach her daughter, Sister Cen, to embroider.

"Father" saw Lu Yan coming in, and Sister Cen quickly stood up and saluted, "Look, I embroidered this today, okay?"

"It's beautiful, all of Cen'er's embroidery is beautiful. When Cen'er learns it, make a purse for dad, and dad will definitely carry it with him every day."

"Okay, okay, Cen'er must study hard." The little girl was very happy to receive the affirmation and encouragement, with smiles in her eyes.

"Okay, your father is tired after a busy day, go and play by yourself." Jia Xuan touched her daughter's little head, and winked at the nanny next to her, and the little girl followed the nanny back to her room to continue embroidering went.

"But what's not going well?" When Lu Yan came in, Jia Xuan felt that there was something wrong with Lu Yan's face.

Afraid of scaring the younger daughter, he reluctantly accompanied her for a few smiling faces. As soon as Lu Cen left, Lu Yan collapsed heavily on the chair. "There is no money in the treasury, and now the northwest and southwest are not peaceful, the emperor is afraid that he will make a big move in the near future..."

"The emperor intends to attack Jiangnan?" Jia Xuan is not an ignorant woman who knows nothing about the government. From experience and sporadic memories of "Dream of Red Mansions", some things can still be guessed.

"Yes, I'm afraid Ruhai's side is having a hard time right now... I just received a letter from Ruhai..."

At the beginning when I heard that Jia Min was gone, Jia Xuan was still a little dazed, and it took me a while to realize that, yes, Sister Lin is almost seven years old now, and if she remembers correctly, when she watched "Sister Lin Enters Jia's Mansion" , Sister Lin is indeed wearing thick clothes, so Jia Min must have gone there in cold weather...

"Did the Jia family get any news?"

"Come on, brother Xi sent me a message just now, saying that the old lady wants to send Lian'er to bring Daiyu back and raise her in Jia's mansion. From the letter, Ruhai seems to have the same intention."

"Is this related to the imminent turmoil in Jiangnan?"

"En." Lu Yan nodded, "Maybe Ruhai will be in danger too."

The officialdom in the south of the Yangtze River is too dark, and there are too many disputes over interests. It is very difficult for anyone to get out of the way. Now the Holy One wants to make a big move in order to fill the treasury, which has touched the interests of too many people. As the Holy One's pawn, Lin Ruhai wants to get out Totally impossible……

"It's okay to take it over." After more than ten years, Jia Xuan has fully understood and adapted to the survival rules of this era. For a mother who lost her mother at such a young age like Lin Daiyu, let alone staying, can Lin Ruhai take care of her? One: Losing her mother and being left alone can ruin her entire reputation.Rather than that, it would be better to take it over, but the Jia family is not a good place, "You have to write to your brother-in-law about the situation of the Jia family, so as not to harm Daiyu in time."

"That's for sure. In addition, I want Qi An to take a trip with him... It is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. Qi An is about to come to an end, let him go out for a walk and see for himself. He does no harm."

Jia Xuan nodded, "Qi An really lacks some experience, it's good to go out for a walk, when will I leave? I'll have someone tidy up Qi An and salute, how can I arrange for the attendants?"

"Leave tomorrow, you can simply pack some clothes, I will let Qian Er follow him" Ten years have passed, Qian Da and Qian Er have both married wives and children, and Qian Da has become the housekeeper of the outer courtyard of the Lu Mansion because of his stable personality , Qian Er is clever and tactful, and has been by Lu Yan's side all these years.

The next day, Jia Xuan personally sent the eldest son out.

"Be careful on the road, don't be impulsive when things happen, use your brain more, watch more, listen more and talk less..." Looking at the young man in front of her, Jia Xuan can always think of the time when the child was born, but she never thought that so many years have passed in the blink of an eye. , the child has grown up, and has begun to slowly leave the wings of the parents. Although she knows that the chicks will leave the nest one day, Jia Xuan is always a little worried, and reminds her over and over again.

"Mother, don't worry, I will be careful. This time, I just go out with you to learn more, so I won't cause trouble."

"Yes, mother, it's running out of time, please let the eldest brother get into the carriage." The two young children couldn't understand Jia Xuan's current mood at all.

"Brother, don't forget to bring me delicious food"

"Okay, I'll bring them all to you, and to my mother..."

In the end, Lu Qi'an got into the carriage under Jia Xuan's reluctant eyes.I'm afraid it will be years after this trip and come back.

After seeing off Lu Qi'an, Jia Xuan picked a sunny day and went to Jia's mansion.

Since Sister Lin has decided to come to Jia's house to live, she can't help her with snacks, even if it's because of Lin Ruhai's advice to Lu Yan back then.

"Greetings to the old lady..." Jia's family lives in a rich and luxurious life. There are countless precious treasures in Jia's mother's room alone. What kind of taste did my mother have? Logically speaking, the Shi family was also the home of a prince, and for some reason, she raised Jia's mother like a daughter of a nouveau riche family.

"Xuan'er is here, come on, she's playing cards, you come to play two too."

In the room, Mother Jia was playing leaf cards with Yuanyang and the others. As soon as Jia Xuan came in, her face immediately turned pale.

She just didn't know what to say. If it was said that Jiamu passed away, Jiamu was not happy. Yuanyang asked a few girls to come over to make the old lady happy in order to make fun of Jiamu. What's the matter with the green jacket?

No matter if Jia Min's married daughter splashed water, that is also the girl from Jia's family, or the one Jia Min loves the most, is the most proud, and talks about it the longest. The girl in Jia's mother's room even put on big red, how does this mean that she doesn't take Jia Min seriously?

"The old lady should take care of this house, and see what she is wearing? I am not afraid that my sister's soul will come back and see it, and I will be chilled..."
