[Red Mansion] Mother Jia has a paralyzed face

The old lady finally waited for her eldest grandson, and left this world in her sleep on the afternoon of the second day after Jia Hu came back.

Baoyu is because the ninth princess is pregnant, and now that big brother Hu is back, he has been by his grandmother's side during this period of time, so he temporarily went back to the princess mansion to see the princess.

I never thought that the servants of the Rongguo Mansion would come to the Princess Mansion to announce the obituary that evening. Baoyu thought that her grandmother's body had been in the same state for so long, and she would come back without any problems, but it was just one day. After a while, the person left...

For a while, everyone was stunned there, and the servants from Rongguo Mansion were a little startled, and immediately called out "Young Master, Young Master!", but Baoyu didn't respond.

When Princess Nine walked over with her belly supported, she saw that all the son-in-laws were stupefied, frowning, and just about to walk over, she saw Jia Baoyu wailing suddenly, knelt down on the ground, and kept repeating: "I Grandma is gone... I don't have a grandmother anymore..."

The ninth princess, who had never seen a son-in-law like this before, was also a little startled, but she was always calm, and she returned to her usual appearance in a short while, and then told the servant girl: "Let someone help the son-in-law up."

"Yes."

The servant girl found someone to help the son-in-law up, but Baoyu didn't respond at all and let others play with her, she just muttered in a daze: "I don't have a grandmother anymore..."

The ninth princess was a little surprised. She always thought that the son-in-law was a spoiled innocent young man, and she simply didn't care whether the son-in-law was promising or not, as long as he was easy to manage and no other women would disgust her, that's why she did it at the beginning. Choose Jia Baoyu.

And the life after marriage is indeed as she imagined, freer and happier than the life in the palace. She is very favored, but every step in the palace is afraid of making mistakes, so it is inevitable that she will be a little tense.

Although after marriage, she found out that the son-in-law's naive thoughts were beyond her understanding, and the nine princesses could not agree with such a person, but she had to admit that getting along with him was very easy and at the same time a little jealous, because she was doted on, so she was able to do nothing. scruples.

After the marriage was settled, Princess Ninth understood that this marriage must be for each other to use each other to get what they need. She lived in this deep palace since she was a child, so she was able to win the favor of her father and grandfather, of course it took a lot of planning. There are today's.

Naturally, the Jia family was chosen because the Jia family was thriving. Even if Jia Baoyu did nothing, she was keenly aware of her father's dislike for the Zhen family. For her own future, Jia Baoyu was of course the most suitable choice.

But until she got married to Jia Baoyu, and did not wait for the Jia family to use her identity to make a profit, she did not understand why the Jia family wanted their sons-in-law to be son-in-law?But she said what was in her heart at that time, and she still remembers what the son-in-law said——

"Because my grandmother said that it doesn't matter if I don't want to study for the imperial examination when I become a son-in-law. My wife doesn't need me to support her."

It's really honest, but because I know a little about the son-in-law, I don't feel too angry.

And she is also a little curious about the grandmother Jiu Gongzhu who is always talked about by the son-in-law, but since they got married, the old lady has been living in a house because of her health, and she has only seen one or two times.

It's a pity that people are leaving like this now...

When she came back to her senses, seeing that he was still looking dull, the ninth princess pushed him, "My son-in-law, as a grandson, you should send the old lady off for the last time, instead of sinking into your own world."

It's not that Jia Baoyu can't hear other people's words, it's just that he is sad, and he doesn't want to pay attention to it at all, but the princess's words make him suddenly echo, he should see his grandmother for the last time, he must see his grandmother for the last time.

After thinking clearly, Jia Baoyu stood up and rushed out. The Ninth Princess, who was directly ignored, really wanted to tell her what etiquette is, but she just thought that it was understandable for the son-in-law to do so, "I will forgive you for now..."

Given the power and status of the Jia family, the funeral of Mrs. Rong Guo’s wife was naturally attended by almost half of the family’s dignitaries in the capital. As the eldest grandson, Jia Hu was mourning but still went to entertain the people who came to worship, but Baoyu didn’t care. No one can stop him from concentrating on seeing his grandmother for the last time.

Kneeling in front of the grandmother's spirit and weeping silently, fortunately he is not the only one like this. Jia Hu has to bear the responsibility of heir, but he allows other younger brothers and sisters to guard the grandmother's spirit together, and does not rule out married daughters.

Jia Yue and others were very grateful for this, and they were self-willed once. Regardless of the opinions of their in-laws, they stayed in the grandmother's mourning hall for 49 days.

Jia Zheng received the obituary of his mother's death, so Ding You went on the paper, and hurried back to the capital before the funeral; Jia Lian also wanted to come back, but it was the emperor's favor for Jia Hu to return to Beijing, and Jia Lian naturally didn't agree. He could only set up a mourning hall for his grandmother in the mansion, where he lived and boarded except for office hours.

He was extremely distressed in his heart for not being able to see his grandmother for the last time, but he was a parent official, and he could not easily leave his post without an order, so he could only pay homage to his grandmother in this way.

Compared with Jia Lian who couldn't come back when he was away, Jia Baoyu in the capital even wanted to go to his grandmother's grave to observe filial piety. One year of filial piety, and the ninth princess is about to give birth, even if you want to keep filial piety, you can stay in the mansion."

Brother Hu refused, so Jia Baoyu could only calm down and go back to the Princess Mansion. The Ninth Princess was listening to the piano, and she was a little surprised to see him come back, "I still think you have to live in Rongguo Mansion for a while?"

Jia Baoyu shook his head, hesitantly said: "I want to keep my grandmother's filial piety for one year, but Brother Hu doesn't allow me to go to my grandmother's tomb, can I choose a room in the princess mansion to put my grandmother's spirit seat?"

After hearing this, Princess Jiu said casually: "My mother's spiritual seat is placed in the Princess Mansion. If you want, you can set up a mourning hall in the next room."

When Jia Baoyu heard this, he said excitedly, "Thank you princess." After speaking, he was ready to go.

Ninth Princess called Jia Baoyu to stop, looked at her hands that were a little swollen due to pregnancy, and asked lightly: "I'm about to give birth, you know?"

"Isn't there still three months?" Jia Baoyu was a little confused.

"Three months are fleeting." Ninth Princess stared into Jia Baoyu's eyes and asked, "But why do I feel that the son-in-law is not very interested?"

"How come?" Jia Baoyu lowered his head a little guilty, he just felt that there was no sense of reality.

Princess Jiu didn't comment, but said seriously: "I don't care how you play, but if you neglect my child, I will definitely not accept it."

"Of course." After finishing speaking, Jia Baoyu sat next to Princess Nine again, and asked cautiously, "Is the child's name prepared by me or by the princess?"

Princess Jiu didn't expect Jia Baoyu to be so smart. She had just finished saying that she couldn't neglect the child, so she asked about the child's name, but this was considered the achievement of the goal, so she said: "Of course the son-in-law will name the children."

Jia Baoyu nodded, and then he talked to the princess and went to prepare for his grandmother's mourning hall.The mourning hall is very simple, only the tablet of the grandmother is placed in the middle, and he only has one request, that is, not to be gloomy, but to have large windows to let sunlight in.

Grandma has always liked bright places, so even if it is to place memorial tablets, he has to prepare according to grandma's preferences, and almost invariably, all the mourning halls of the old lady are like this. Those who have nothing to do will go to the grandmother's tablet to talk.

Jia Baoyu said he wanted to keep his filial piety, so he started from the day when the mourning hall was ready, except for going to see the princess every day, he was in the mourning hall all the time.None of his previous hobbies could attract his attention for the time being, but he has acquired a new hobby, which is to draw pictures of getting along with his grandmother in his memory.

After the eldest son was born, the ninth princess asked about his name. Jia Baoyu didn't know why, but when he saw the word "Rui", he had a special feeling. He couldn't move his eyes, so he said to the ninth princess: "I have long wanted Well, regardless of gender, use the word 'Rui' as the name."

Since the nine princesses planned to let the son-in-law decide the name of the child, they naturally had no objection, so the first child of the two of them was named Jia Rui.

As time passed, everyone seemed to have overcome the grief of his grandmother's death. Jia Baoyu also began to live his own leisure life again. Occasionally, he wanted to do it when he had a whimsical idea. He used to be himself, but now he took his son with him. Well, as long as the ninth princess doesn't take his son to do anything too extreme, she basically doesn't care.

And I don't know when it started. She no longer called "son-in-law, son-in-law" but "Baoyu" intimately. Jia Baoyu didn't notice this change belatedly. It seems that there is no sense of separation before.

One day he suddenly had the idea of ​​hunting for treasures. After the death of Jia's grandmother, the two houses were still separated, but the second house was in charge of the Wang family, and it was like the old lady who divided the property between the sons without separating the families. Most of the things that Baoyu got were moved to the Princess Mansion, but he never paid too much attention to them.

The warehouse was cleaned cleanly. Jia Baoyu and his son rushed in as soon as they entered the door. Little Jia Rui had a different focus from his father. He always liked bright and special objects. Then he found a big box and sent it to his servants. Helped open it, and saw that it was full of old toys and the like.

Jia Baoyu, who was on the side, heard the voice coming, and immediately recognized that it was something he used when he was a child. He didn't expect to keep it all the time. There was a sandalwood box in it, which he had never seen before. When he opened it, he saw that it was a A piece of jade with the words "Tong Ling Bao Yu" written on it.

Looking at it, Baoyu's tears flowed down unconsciously. Little Jia Rui, who had never seen her father cry, asked a little fearfully, "Daddy, why are you crying?"

"Father doesn't know..."
