The Honest Man of the Red Chamber

From time to time, Jia Yucun looked at the place where the plaque of Rongguo Mansion was built. Although the gates of Rongguo Mansion were not much more friendly than other places, they still felt the reservedness that even the mere servants of a big family have from their words and deeds.If, if he was not born in the last generation of the family, but like Jia Zheng... Jia Yucun clenched his hands tightly in his sleeves, he would not give up, even though he has no ancestors and no clan to be reliable, But he vowed that one day, no matter how he seized the opportunity, he would create a good situation for his descendants no less than that of Rongguo Mansion, and he would never let his children be in the same situation as him...

Wang Guizhi wanted to lead the children to greet Jia Mu Chenxing first, Baoyu Meiyu Yuanyuan was still a little sleepy, and it was half an hour at night when they went to primary school in Shanxi.

"Mother, Baoyu still wants to sleep."

"Meiyu also wants to sleep."

"Yuanyuan doesn't want to get up."

Although I have returned to my own home, this place is still a bit unfamiliar to the children. In order to prevent them from getting used to it, anyway, brothers and sisters are young, so I let them sleep together. After getting familiar with it, Let them sleep in separate beds and rooms.

But this time is what the Jia family has insisted on for nearly a hundred years. In this regard, Wang Guizhi has no intention of changing his resistance. Although it is a bit early to start at five o'clock in the morning, this is ancient times after all. Just get into a good routine.

"My children are good. We haven't greeted grandma for a long time. We should salute and greet grandma properly, you know?"

Watching the nanny helping them get dressed, Wang Guizhi thought that since she returned to the capital for the time being, there might be some problems in some operations in Shanxi, but it also had to test the local management. , since you are employing people, you can't doubt it casually. In addition, the timber business is so great that it will take more than a year or even longer to get an order. In addition to blessing the people floating on the sea, there is only waiting.Although many merchants are involved in the timber business (looking for gold mines), when the ships and many problems have not been resolved, the progress of the progress can only be given to time and opportunity.

After wiping their faces with cool towels, the children gradually came to their senses and found the feeling of waking up early to go to school. Like everyone)? I don’t want to braid my hair, like before, can’t you tie it up with a turban..."

Wang Guizhi smiled and asked Caiyun again, "Have you combed your hair yet?"

"Mother, I've already packed it." Yuan Chun received a jewelry box last night, and he understood it when he saw the outfits of his aunts, aunts and sisters yesterday.

"Then let's go." Wang Guizhi was supported by Zhou Rui's family into the carriage, divided into two carriages and came out from the black oil gate.If you want her to say that Jia Shen’s yard is really nice, the designer set up the horse shed in an I-shaped shape, so that the carriages and horses of Rongguo Mansion and Jia Shen can be stored and taken care of together, and when used, no matter whether it is from Jia She’s hall or Just pull it out from the entrance hall of Rongguo Mansion, you don't have to be too smart.

When Jia's mother got up, she saw Mrs. Li who came a little earlier than usual, so she knew that she would have to cheer up and take care of the house in the future, and she had to be on guard against rifts between brothers and sisters-in-law. Gradually, Jia's boat started to move forward again.Unlike when Zheng'er and his wife were in Shanxi, when they returned to Rongguo Mansion, the smell was far away and near stink.Because of the promotion of Zheng'er's status, the impact will be more direct...

"Greetings to the old lady." Mrs. Li led Jia Lian and Jia Cong to greet the old lady. After Jia's mother stretched out her hand to let them sit down, Mrs. Li smiled, "I think younger siblings have always attached importance to their children's education. We have opened a primary school, no, after a while they finish their greetings, let brother Lian and brother Cong accompany them."

"That's how it should be."

Seeing Mrs. Li's slightly more earnest attitude than before, Mother Jia knew that she was worried that she would favor her second son Jia Zheng again.What mother in the world doesn't expect her children to be successful? She used to just think about leveling a bowl of water as much as possible.Today, she still thinks so.Mother Jia thought about her eldest son, but actually felt sorry for him.He has become what he is now. Although he is already a first-class general, this first-class general is just a vain position, with no fame and salary, and no soldiers or generals under his command. When he attacked the noble, he never expected At this time, he will face a situation where his brother is strong and his brother is weak. If Jia Zheng has always been a member of the Ministry of Industry, then he will not feel that his authority as an elder brother will be challenged one day, but just like As Madam Wang advised her back then, when faced with danger, one must have the determination of a strong man to sever his wrists.Their own children have grown up, and now Zheng'er is the official of Zhongshu Shilang, maybe in the future...

The current situation at home, on the contrary, will not be like Mrs. Li is worried about. Mother Jia closes her eyes and rests for a while, and she will demand more from the second room in the future.It would be great if, if Jia Zheng could take office again.Although it was a pity that the children could not be in front of her eyes, she wanted to keep the family peaceful and peaceful when she thought of the possibility of discovery.I hope it's just that she thinks too much...

"Greetings to the old lady."

Jiamu laughed happily, "Okay, okay, let's all get up." Looking at the cute and healthy children, she couldn't help loving them, and hugged and caressed all of them.

Wang Guizhi explained Jia Zheng's whereabouts, "The master went to the household department early in the morning, and he will greet the old lady when he comes back."

"That's his business, he should." Looking at Mrs. Li and Mrs. Wang's two daughter-in-laws, Jia's mother had a plan in her mind, "Brother Lian, you take your younger brothers and sisters to have breakfast, and then you should go to school .”

"Yes." Yuan Chun and Jia Lian took orders to retreat.

Seeing that the children had left, Jia's mother said, "There are three things at home right now, let's discuss them first."

"Please tell me, old lady." Mrs. Li and Wang Guizhi both stood in front of her and listened.

"The first one, the empress has already informed the emperor and the empress dowager, and issued a decree to let the officials' daughters of the right age stand for election in July next year." Jia Mu paid attention to the expressions of the two of them, "Our family is only one in Yuanchun right now. Miss, I’m afraid I’m going to enter the palace to run for election, what do you guys think?” She hesitated, “Although Sister Ying is a concubine, her father and uncle are both officials of the third rank and above. The royal clan and clan can be regarded as her fortune."

Although the draft is a rule after the establishment of the imperial court, the age limit is relatively wide, and the time has not been determined. After participating in the election, if you have not entered the palace, you can arrange it yourself. In addition, this is also a rare opportunity for the daughters to show their heads. Chances are, wives who have children of the right age at home also take the opportunity to choose their daughter-in-law at this time.

She is not worried about Yuanchun, her background and life are excellent, even if Yingchun is a concubine after all, if Mrs. Li agrees to let her run for election, she will be given the best chance no matter what.But in this case, Yingchun must at least be recorded in Mrs. Li's name, which shows that she was educated by the first wife.Growing up in front of her, Mother Jia couldn't help worrying about her.If it wasn't for taking advantage of this opportunity to find a good family and settle down, it would be difficult to have such an opportunity.

Alas, those who don't want to come will still come, Wang Guizhi couldn't help pursing his lips, still feeling a little sad in his heart.

Mrs. Li only hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said, "Old lady, why don't you write Yingchun under my name and pretend to be a daughter-in-law to accompany her big sister to run for the election? Aunt Xu died early, Although I didn't pay attention, she was brought up by you alone, and she is not much different from the granddaughter. Besides, as long as it is the child of the master, it is the child of our Jia family. It is the old lady who thinks carefully, I This mother is really confused." Anyway, she is already dead, since the old lady has this idea, so what if it is recorded in her own name?It's just a little more dowry money for her, it's not worth it.Besides, she saw that Sister Ying's appearance is not bad, and the family has learned a lot over the years, maybe it's just like what the old lady said, when she can marry a good family, she can also help Lian'er Cong'er Woolen cloth.

It's not easy for Wang Guizhi to intervene in this matter, so he just listened, thinking that if Yingchun enters the palace...it's really hard to say, maybe it will be better than Zhongshan Wolf?But even if she has little contact with her, Yingchun is not as cowardly as in the original book. By the way, in the original book, there is a Grand View Garden to let the sisters live together. Her personality has been developed. She couldn't change it, she was too conscious of her situation, and she went with the flow.Before Yingchun entered the garden, the nanny was not a good one. After Mrs. Li passed away, Mrs. Xing was also visible to her. When she came to her place, Mrs. Li did not go. She went to Shanxi with Jia Zheng, Jia She's family After living in Rongxi Hall, Mother Jia brought the children to her to raise them. If Yingchun was still like that, she would be really helpless.

Mother Jia was really happy when she heard Madam Li's words. She patted her hand and said, "Do you really think so?"

"Of course it is true. If the old lady is worried, I will ask the master to record the name of Sister Ying on the genealogy later." Mrs. Li said straightforwardly, seeing that the younger siblings seemed to have no joy on their faces, she felt strange in her heart.Even if Yingchun was recorded under her name, she would definitely be inquired about what was going on, and it was hard to say whether she would meet a good family, but what was there to worry about in Yuanchun?Based on Yuan Chun's family background and appearance, it may not be impossible to enter the palace and become a concubine!

The author has something to say: How is Yingchun, it’s great~~~~ I’m personally very satisfied.
