[Red Mansion] Mrs. Lin, the Buddhist family

After a few more days, the movie theater's affairs were on the right track, and Jia Shu stopped paying attention to this matter.

As for the drama, after serious consideration, Jia Shu simply handed it over to Hu Shi. She was born as a dancer, and even if she knew nothing about acting, she was very familiar with the actors' performances on stage and their figures on stage. Actions, etc., have a great effect.

Time flies, and soon, another year has passed.

This year, whether it is the Lin family bookstore, the film theater, or the drama theater, they are all on the right track, and the annual income of the Lin family is already beyond the imagination of ordinary people.Under such circumstances, it is no longer suitable for the Lin family to make big moves to attract the attention of others.

Fortunately, everyone Jia Shu cares about has busy affairs, so they won't feel lonely at home.

-

After the new year, Lin Ruhai also made new progress in his book editing work. In a short period of time, his work became very easy, and he was able to go home very early every day.

It's just because Lin's mother was busy with the film theater, Jia Shu was busy with business, and the two children were sent to the palace. After Lin Ruhai returned home, she became the one who was "left behind". business.

Of course, Jia Shu was with him.

The two were in the same space, and no one spoke, but the quiet atmosphere also made people feel comfortable.

On this day, Lin Ruhai suddenly mentioned something: "Ruosang, I met the Fourth Prince after finishing the work today."

Jia Shu was stunned for a moment, then squinted his eyes: "Fourth Prince?"

Because he didn't know the final direction of Seizing the Inheritance, Jia Shu had always been very concerned about the fourth prince, who had succeeded in ascending the throne.

The two of them were married, and Lin Ruhai was naturally aware of this, so every time he encountered something related to the fourth prince, no matter how big or small, he would deliberately tell Jia Shu about it.

Lin Ruhai nodded: "The fourth prince said he wanted to thank me." He paused, "For the robot dogs that were given to the emperor's grandchildren a while ago."

Jia Shu hesitated: "For the robot dog?"

If she remembers correctly, it has been several months since Pippi and the others brought the robot dog into the palace to give to the grandsons and princesses?Even if the fourth prince really wanted to thank him, it should be the day after they sent the robot dog into the palace.

The prince is different from them, they have a high frequency of entering and leaving the palace.

Lin Ruhai was also a little puzzled: "The fourth prince invited me to the restaurant under the prince's name after the end of duty tomorrow, and he treated me to thank me."

Jia Shu looked vigilant: "The teahouse under the crown prince's name?"

What kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of the fourth prince?

"Could he be trying to win you over?" Jia Shusi thought about it, and there was only one reliable guess, "I heard that the relationship between the fourth prince and the prince is getting closer. Although he still obeys the emperor, he is seen in private. I went to restaurants for dinner several times."

Whether it is a movie theater or a drama theater, the rise of new things is always accompanied by many doubts and objections. In order to prevent the situation from getting out of control and truly affecting the Lin family, she spent almost every day in the month when the movie theater and drama theater opened. He can control unremarkable insects and animals to inquire about information, and every time he goes there and back, he always encounters one or two scenes where the fourth prince and the crown prince enter the same place through different routes.

It doesn't have to be a restaurant, the two of them did it very secretly. Jia Shu even discovered that the two of them used two doubles who were very similar in body and appearance to cover themselves in another place at the same time.

At the beginning, Jia Shu didn't want to find out what kind of deal these two people had reached, but every time she met them, she would inevitably have doubts and couldn't help worrying——

When these princes calculate the throne, most of the time they start from the overall situation. As for whether they will harm the innocent Chi Yu, or drag down the ministers who had no intention of participating in the battle between them, they never care.

What's more, even if they use useful people who don't belong to their own camp as pawns, they won't take it to heart.

Always take precautions.

Therefore, as long as Jia Shu meets one of the two princes in the next few times, he will definitely follow.Naturally, in the end, I found out the fact that the two princes have teamed up——

Before the prince lost his power, the fourth prince would do his best to assist the prince to take the throne; but once Emperor Qisheng gave up the prince, the prince would hand over all his power to the four princes, and at the same time let them help the fourth prince seize the throne.

The prince agreed very easily, firstly because he was very confident in winning the throne; secondly, because he knew that if he really lost power, the fourth prince, the adopted son, once the loyal princeling, would not end well if he failed to take the throne. go.

But for these things, Jia Shu couldn't explain the details of the conversation between the two clearly, so she could only vaguely say that "the relationship between the two is very close."

Fortunately, Lin Ruhai understood what she really wanted to express, and her expression became serious: "Ruosang wants to say that the fourth prince invited me to the restaurant for dinner, and the real purpose is to win me over for the prince?"

Jia Shu nodded: "Now you are a sweet potato."

If it weren't for Lin Ruhai being trapped in the palace by Emperor Qisheng to compile books, and he was known as "afraid of his wife" on weekdays, and would not participate in social gatherings later in the day, coupled with the occasional protection of Emperor Qisheng, he would definitely be banned in the past two years. People are pulling everywhere to participate in banquets and dinners. Where is the clean life today?

Among these values, a small part is because of the Lin family's property - after all, everyone has seen the development of the Lin family over the years, and those who know a little bit about general affairs can estimate the Lin family's monthly income by [-]% to [-]%.

Silver, who doesn't love it?

What's more, the battle for succession has become more and more intense, Qisheng Emperor's attitude is also a little moody, everyone is trying their best to contribute money to their lord's future great cause.

But the bigger reason was because Emperor Qisheng valued Lin Ruhai and his two children.

At the same time, there is the Rongguo Mansion standing behind his wife——

Even if it is impossible for Rong Guogong to change sides, but for him to relax his attitude and put some water when facing other people, it is already profitable for others.

In the officialdom, power and the emperor's attention are the most important things for others to win over. If it's just money, why don't they go directly to the south of the Yangtze River and win over a few more wealthy salt merchants?Those people are never short of money.

Lin Ruhai also has some understanding of his own situation, but thinking that his position is stable now, even if he is repeatedly reprimanded by Emperor Qisheng, he still handles all the affairs entrusted to him perfectly and properly. I don't quite believe that the fourth prince wanted to see him in order to introduce him to the prince.

Because it is not necessary.

What's more, the prince tried to win him over before, but for some unknown reason, there was no more.

Jia Shu was actually a little uncertain, but she could only think of this reason when the fourth prince invited Lin Ruhai to the prince's restaurant.

It was useless to think about it, and the two quickly changed the subject.

The next day, Lin Ruhai went to the restaurant where the fourth prince invited him after he was off duty.

"Master Lin, I have waited for you."

As soon as they entered the door, the prince and the fourth prince turned their heads to look at Lin Ruhai. The prince had a smile on his face, which made people feel close to each other.

Lin Ruhai paused and walked in.

During the banquet, there were not only the crown prince and the fourth prince, but also Lin Ruhai's father-in-law Jia Daishan, besides this, there was no one else.

Lin Ruhai's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately understood that Jia Shu's conjecture yesterday had come true.But the person had already arrived, and he couldn't turn around and leave, so he could only bite the bullet and sit in his seat.

Jia Daishan looked at Lin Ruhai with a complicated expression.

The prince looked at the two of them and said with a smile, "Why don't you say hello to Mrs. Weng?"

Lin Ruhai hurriedly stood up and bowed to Jia Daishan when he heard the words: "Father-in-law."

Jia Daishan sighed inwardly, and waved his hand to Lin Ruhai: "It's nothing, today is the fourth prince's banquet for Ruhai, and the prince and I are just accompanying guests, Ruhai doesn't need too much courtesy."

The dinner didn't take long, and the prince didn't say anything to win him over during the dinner. On the contrary, His Royal Highness the fourth prince really gave him a lot of thank-you gifts. It seemed that the meal was really only invited by the fourth prince to thank him.

It was just that after the meal was over, the crown prince and the fourth prince left together, and Du Jia Daishan stayed behind.

"Ruhai, what do you think?" Facing his son-in-law, Jia Daishan didn't have that kind of devious thinking. Even if he didn't serve the same lord, the fate of the two families is closely related.

Lin Ruhai sighed: "What is father-in-law thinking?"

Jia Daishan looked at Lin Ruhai, and said in a low tone, "As far as I am concerned, I naturally don't want the Lin family to go through the muddy waters of seizing the heir. In this case, even in the future... the Jia family will have a way out, so that they won't be defeated directly, and even lose their lives. "

Before Lin Ruhai could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard him say again, "But now, the Lin family has nowhere to hide."

Lin Ruhai's pupils shrank slightly: "What does father-in-law mean?"

"Do you know how many people in the court are still neutral?"

"How many?"

"It's less than one palm."

Lin Ruhai was stunned: "So much?"

Jia Daishan nodded: "That's all. There are four adults left, three cabinet bachelors, and one is the chief assistant." In other words, they are all powerful enough to ensure their survival even in the midst of seizing the throne. people.

Maybe these people will end up for their own descendants in the future, but the situation is still unclear, and no one is worth their shot.

But Lin Ruhai is different, he is now just a fourth-rank bachelor.

"If you don't stand in line again, you may become the target of public criticism."

Lin Ruhai hesitated for a moment, and asked, "If my son-in-law stands firmly behind the Holy Master..."

Jia Daishan smiled and shook his head: "Ruhai, you haven't found out yet? Your Majesty is also one of the parties."

It's just that the emperor's enemies are all the princes including the prince, and those princes... even if not all of them are like the prince, and regard Qisheng Emperor as the last enemy, but when they make a move, the first ones to guard against People are also Qishengdi.

If Emperor Qisheng was not an emperor with such a strong desire for power and control, Lin Ruhai could really be a pure minister and royalist when he stood behind Qisheng Emperor. what does he do.

But Emperor Qisheng happened to be such an emperor, and if Lin Ruhai still stood behind Qishengdi, and the new emperor came to power in the future, his attitude towards him would not be very good.

Furthermore, in Min'er's previous life, after Emperor Qisheng was forced to abdicate, he did not obediently give up his power.At that time, is Lin Ruhai still planning to be the emperor's party?

The Supreme Emperor will die sooner or later, will Lin Ruhai be fine then?

But Jia Daishan would not say these words to Lin Ruhai.

After these years of experience, Lin Ruhai naturally understood the meaning of Jia Daishan's words, and it was difficult for him to accept it for a while.But after thinking about it carefully, he had to admit that what Emperor Qisheng did these days was indeed completely different from before.

Because of old age, Emperor Qisheng has gradually lost his composure, and began to try to control each of his sons and ministers. If he finds out that a minister is colluding with the prince, the prince may not have a big problem, but that minister is likely to Years of hard work went down the drain.

"I have to think about it." Lin Ruhai was unwilling to stand in line in his own heart.But with the current situation, even for the sake of his wife and children, he seems to have to stand in line.

But before that, he needs to seriously think about whether it is really right to stand in line with Duke Rong.

-

Jia Daishan returned home, changed into his normal clothes, and said to the boy next to him, "Go and call Uncle Jing over, and tell him that I have something to discuss with him."

-

Jia Jing's son, Jia Zhen, is over ten years old and is about to get married, but he is still stubborn and irresponsible.

Because his wife has been infertile for many years, she dotes on Jia Zhen, a scoundrel.However, he was just born, so he put seven or eight pretty girls in his son's yard to serve him. Maybe he was spoiled by those girls, and now he has become a lustful person who makes him look down on him very much.

Just now, two girls in Jia Zhen's yard scratched their faces because of jealousy.Then when Jia Zhen greeted his wife, she was seen, and after that there was a noisy begging for mercy and punishment, but Jia Zhen, that wicked son, didn't care about his wife's painstaking efforts, and kept begging for mercy to the two maids.

Even if it is noisy now, in the end there must be time for the wife to compromise.

It's a boring farce.

The key point is that the fence in my house is not secure, and similar things happen frequently, and they are spread outside the house every time. Nowadays, as long as there are some powerful people in the capital, they know what kind of virtue Jia Zhen is. Give Jia Zhen the jerk.

Even the young lady of the second-class family will lose everything because she can't agree on the issue of the maid's room not long after meeting Jia Zhen——

Everyone is a respectable person, even if they want to sell their daughters, they don't have to push their daughters into the fire pit for a little power and wealth.If there is, Jia Jing himself would not like it.

So much so that until now, Jia Zhen's marriage has not yet come to fruition.

The point is that although his wife was worried, she never thought of dismissing the maids in Jia Zhen's yard.

Jia Jing wanted to intervene, but every time Jia Zhen went to his wife's place to cry, his wife would come to him to cry, make trouble and hang herself, which annoyed him very much.

At this time, Jia Jing wished to go back in time, and he would definitely bring Jia Zhen, the scoundrel, to the front yard to raise him himself, and never give his wife any chance to spoil him.

But now that there is no chance, Jia Jing can only keep out of sight and out of mind.

When Jia Daishan's servant came to pass on the message, Jia Jing had already endured to the extreme, turned around and left immediately when he saw someone.

But his wife and children didn't even notice that he had left.

His wife, Jia Wanshi's personal servant girl, Huzhu, sees everything and has her own plans in her heart.

-

"Second uncle, what happened to the crown prince?" Jia Jing asked as soon as he entered the door.

Jia Daishan shook his head: "No, it's Lin Ruhai."

Jia Jing was stunned: "Ruhai?"

As a Jinshi who was promoted through the imperial examination, Jia Jing even had a good impression of Lin Ruhai because of the various actions of the Lin Family Bookstore.What's more, the two families are still closely related.

Although Jia Jing didn't get along with Lin Ruhai much, but because of his admiration for Lin Ruhai, Jia Jing inevitably paid more attention to him, so he also knew Lin Ruhai a little bit, and knew that he was not a troublemaker.

"Second Uncle, what happened to Ru Hai?"

Jia Daishan sighed: "Now the crown prince wants to pull Lin Ruhai onto the boat, so I persuade you. But you also know that although the Rongguo Mansion and Wen'anhou Mansion are related by marriage, the two families don't move around very often..."

The most important thing is that things like seizing the heir apparent and forcing those who don't want to join will often only become hidden dangers.

What's more, there is still that evil ghost Jia Shu in the Lin family.

Jia Jing pondered for a moment, but said: "But the current situation cannot allow the Lin family to be alone?"

It's not that no one in Seizing the Inheritance can stay out from the beginning to the end, but such a person is either high in position and power, or has no use value at all.The former, the number of people is small, even if someone wants to win over, they are worried about offending the other party unintentionally, while the latter...

For example, the husband's family of Jia Daishan's second daughter, Jinyang Hou's Mansion, oh no, it's not even the Hou's Mansion anymore.

"That's what I said too." Jia Daishan said with a sad face, "But I'm worried that after Lin Ruhai decides to participate in the fight for the throne, he will support other people to take the position..."

For example, the fourth prince.

Although the fourth prince has reached a cooperation with the prince, Jia Daishan can't let go of his guard against the fourth prince as long as he thinks that the prince in the previous life was abolished and established, and was even forced to rebel in the end, while the fourth prince reached the highest position.

The Lin family also joined the wrong team with the Rongguo Mansion in the previous life, but Jia Shu's husband's family became one of the few victors.

If the fourth prince and the Lin family are united again, who knows that the fourth prince will not be able to help the prince with peace of mind?Except for those princes who are too young and know that they have absolutely no hope of becoming emperor, who doesn't have the ambition to be emperor?Can the fourth prince really be an exception?

Jia Daishan was worried.

Jia Jing didn't know the details, but after thinking about it, he felt: "Second uncle don't have to worry, Ruhai has read sage books since childhood, and he comes from a scholarly family. As long as the prince doesn't mess around, if he must choose someone to support the superior, he will never Will abandon the prince for others."

The Ningrong Second House made their fortunes through meritorious service, and their ancestors were just mud legs, so they didn't value orthodoxy, but the Lin family was not like that.Jia Jing believed that as long as the prince would not be provoked to make foolish tricks, the Lin family would never choose other princes to support him.

"Besides, has Second Uncle forgotten that the Lin family and the Jia family are related by marriage, and in the eyes of others, he has long been stamped with his mark?"

It would be fine if the Lin family stood steadily behind Qisheng Emperor, but if they wanted to participate in the seizure of the heir apparent, no one could really feel at ease with Lin Ruhai except the crown prince.

The matter of seizing the heirloom, a little carelessness will affect the whole family, and no one will let a person who he can't fully trust into the core of the team.And if you don't occupy the core position, the chances of being abandoned in the future will be much higher.

As long as Lin Ruhai is not stupid, he will only choose the prince.

Jia Daishan looked at him quietly, his heart aching: Under normal circumstances, Lin Ruhai could only stand in line behind Jia's family, and naturally became a member of the prince's command.But don't forget, Jia Shu is there.

Thinking about when the two families first got married, he still wanted to protect the Lin family and prevent the Lin family from getting involved in the fight for the heir apparent.Who knew that before he even made a move, Jia Shu would go all out and tear apart the Lin family and the Jia family. Looking at the current situation, who still thinks that the Lin family is a supporter of the crown prince?

It's not that he doesn't know what Jia Jing said, he's just worried that if Jia Shu is unwilling to help the prince, he will strike again, and this time, the Jia family will be completely separated from the Lin family.

"How is your relationship with Lin Ruhai?" Jia Daishan asked suddenly.

Jia Jing looked at Jia Daishan suspiciously: "Second Uncle, as Ruhai's serious father-in-law, to avoid suspicion, you don't have much contact with the Lin family. How can I befriend him from the next house?"

With Lin Ruhai's efforts to compile books in the Imperial Academy almost every day in recent years, even if he wanted to contact Lin Ruhai, he couldn't do anything?

Jia Daishan frowned: "It would be great if there is a way to persuade Jia Shu..."

Jia Jing was stunned: "Third sister?"

Jia Daishan came back to his senses and waved his hands indifferently: "It's nothing, I was just joking."

Jia Jing didn't think that Jia Daishan was joking, after thinking about it, he said: "Zhen'er is about to marry her, but unfortunately no one is willing to marry their daughter to him. If you beg the third sister, who is an aunt, to marry her to my nephew Red line, come to think of it, will the third sister not agree?"

He looked at Jia Daishan, but found that his expression seemed to hate iron but not steel, even with a bit of anger and disgust.

Jia Jing was a little surprised: "Second Uncle?"

The corner of Jia Daishan's mouth twitched: "Farewell..."

Judging from the evil ghost's words and deeds, Min'er knows things, and she also knows, maybe even knows more than Min'er, and her mind is also smarter.

Jia Daishan didn't believe that a nephew who was ashamed of his daughter-in-law would make Jia Shu more concerned.

Jia Jing frowned: "Second Uncle, do you have any misunderstandings about Zhen'er? Why does my nephew think that you treat Zhen'er..."

Jia Daishan sighed: "Nothing. It's just that Shu'er and Ruhai are in love with each other and they are in harmony. There is no third person between husband and wife. Look at your son again..." He thought of what he had heard all these years about Zhen'er. Rumors about the future patriarch of the Jia family only felt a severe pain in the brain, "Do you think Shu'er will like Zhen'er? Will you be willing to match him?"

Jia Jing paused, a little at a loss.

For a loving couple like him and Wan Shi, there are many concubines around him to serve him; Brother She and Zhang Shi are even more harmonious, and Zhang Shi can't insert a third person before she becomes pregnant, but Zhang Shi After Shi became pregnant, didn't Brother She have two maids in the yard, and Brother She also benefited from it?What's more, the Jia family has always had a tradition of putting a few maids in the men's children's room before marriage.

Jia Jing really didn't know what the third younger sister thought of his bastard son, so he hesitated for a while.

"But using this as an excuse, it's not impossible to invite Jia Shu to visit the house." Jia Daishan stroked his beard, and his calculations rattled.

-

Within a few days, the Lin family received a post from Ningguo Mansion.

Looking at the words on it, Jia Shu felt dazzled: "Jia Zhen wants to marry a wife?"

Jia Zhen was originally the same generation as Jia Baoyu, but when the plot of Dream of Red Mansions began, his sons were older than Jia Baoyu and others, so it is reasonable to marry a wife now.

Not long after Jia Zhen got married, Jia Lian was supposed to be born?Then, when Jia Rong was born, Wang Xifeng was about to be born, and after a few more years, the other twelve beauties would be born one after another.

But when Daiyuxu was five years old, the new emperor had already ascended the throne...

It seems that the most critical time has indeed come for seizing the throne.

Although he didn't know what the reason for "choosing a wife for Jia Zhen" was, Jia Shu decided to participate.After all, this is an opportunity to watch the beginning of the plot of the Red Mansion up close.

If you go through a book, you can't even know what the main characters in it look like?

-

Ningguo Mansion is right next to Rongguo Mansion, there is only a narrow road in the middle, and a small door is opened. No matter how you look at it, Jia Shu should know about Ningguo Mansion.

But in fact, Jia Shu had never been to Ningguo Mansion.

This time when she went to Ningguo Mansion, she went back to Rongguo Mansion first, and then went to Ningguo Mansion together with Jia Shishi, Jia Min, Jia Gu, Jia Zhi and others.

Originally, according to the difference between the elders and the younger ones, Jia Shu should be the last one, but because of an accident before she got married, when she went to Ningguo Mansion, she sat next to Jia Shishi, and her status was higher than Jia Min's. high.

Jia Min followed Jia Shishi to participate in various banquets since she was a child, and all the wives and ladies who came to the Ningguo Mansion's flower viewing banquet knew her. After Jia Zhi became Mrs. Hou, she often went out to socialize.But Jia Gu and Jia Shu, not many people present knew them.

Because of Jia Gu's low status, when her mother-in-law took people out to socialize, it was impossible for her to take her, a concubine and daughter-in-law, out.As for Jia Shu, it was because he was too busy. Even if he was socializing, it was the group of wives and ladies who were familiar with Lin Mu. Jia Shu didn't see many of these people who were familiar with the Ningrong Second Mansion.

Those wives and ladies inevitably sized up the two of them with curious eyes, and among them, Jia Shu was the one who got the most scrutiny.

In the circle of wives in the capital, Jia Shu is quite famous.

Before getting married, no one had ever heard of such a person in the Jia family, but in a blink of an eye, a concubine became the eldest daughter, and even married into the Marquis of Wen'an's mansion.If that was the case, everyone wouldn't care too much. After all, if it weren't for the older people, they wouldn't even remember that there was such a family in the capital.

But it was such a family that was almost forgotten by the people in the capital. After Jia Shu married, it began to prosper, and its presence immediately increased.

Some people are bound to be curious.

Of course, it's not that everyone looks down on Jia Shu.Who made her a concubine who overwhelmed the concubine?

Jia Shu sat there, and many people looked at her, their eyes were stark and stark, as if they had thorns.If someone else sat in her position, she might soon look away uncomfortably, or simply find an excuse to leave.

Jia Shu didn't take it seriously, as if his buttocks were nailed to the chair, he leisurely took the pastries and fruits and began to eat.

As for the eyes of others?Watch it if you like it, anyway, there will be no less meat.

-

Jia Jing's wife, Jia Wanshi, quickly came out with a few maidservants, exchanged pleasantries with the others, and then sat down in her seat.

But after sitting down, Jia Wanshi's face darkened when he saw that there were not many young girls in the venue.

Everyone knows that this flower viewing banquet is to choose a wife for his son, but after receiving the post, these invited people did not bring their own girls of the right age - not everyone did not bring them, but Jia Wan's just glanced at those girls roughly, and he could find that they had not received much education since they were young.

It was obvious that they did not want to marry the Jia family.

If Jia Wan's mental activities are known to other wives, I'm afraid they will be wronged——

The Jia family is powerful now, and all those present are officials and dignitaries who support the prince. Who would not want to marry the Jia family?One must know that if the crown prince can really rise to the position, the Jia family will surely rise to a higher level.Even if the Jia family pressed the wrong treasure and fell down in the end, at that time, the fate of everyone here will not be much better. Relatively speaking, the Jia family is still the best.So how could such a family not want to marry?

What's more, Jia Jing is the head of the Jia family. If there is no accident, Jia Zhen will take over the position of the head of the family in the future.

Even if Jia Zhen is a little more reliable, they will not avoid Jia Zhen like snakes and scorpions.

How did the Ningguo Mansion educate Jia Zhen?How can you make an upbringing with a bright future so that people hate it?

The host of the banquet put on a face, can the guests and hosts enjoy this banquet?

Jia Wanshi adjusted for a while, and then put a smile on his face again, but his expressions towards other ladies and ladies were not so enthusiastic.

Jia Shu said hello to Jia Wanshi, then sat in his seat, looking around at the group of young girls in the yard who were not well dressed, and finally, his eyes fell on the woman next to the official wife of a third-rank official. On the concubine.

It was a girl with exquisite facial features but unexpectedly rough skin.It is said that white covers all ugliness. Compared with other fair-skinned and beautiful girls, her appearance is undoubtedly at the bottom.

But the other concubine girls who are better-looking all know that Jia Zhen is already the best marriage they can get, so they try their best to dress themselves up, so that their original looks of seven or eight can also be nine or ten. , each one is radiant.Even if the temperament is unsatisfactory, but just looking at that face, these girls undoubtedly conform to Jia Zhen's aesthetics.

Only this girl didn't seem to have even a little makeup on her face, and she looked so simple that she was a bit shabby.

The aunt next to her seemed to be very displeased with her outfit today, but for some reason, she still brought her to the flower viewing banquet in Ningguo Mansion.

Although he noticed something was wrong, Jia Shu didn't have a good impression of Jia's family, and quickly put it behind him, completely ignoring this abnormality.

Soon, the banquet began.

These backyard girls are trapped in the backyard, with less experience and less ways to have fun. No matter how many banquets they attend, there are only a few ways to have fun——

Composing poems and lyrics, beating drums and passing flowers, watching plays...

Oh, there seems to be another item recently, watching movies and dramas.

Jia Shu wasn't interested in any of these things. When the others were interested, she simply dragged Jia Zhi to a corner to chat.

"Second sister, how is your life in Jinyang Hou Mansion?"

The demotion of the Marquis of Jinyang has always been a good thing for Jia Shu, and she has a clear conscience.But Lin Ruhai would be wary of the Marquis of Jinyang, and it was Jia Zhi who sent them the news. In the end, the title of Marquis of Jinyang was demoted, and Jia Zhi, the wife of the Marquis, lost his edict.

Although in order to repay Jia Zhi, she deliberately transferred the dividends from the Caizhuang Pavilion to her, but she was still worried that Jia Zhi would not live well in the Jinyang Hou Mansion.

The coldness in Jia Zhi's eyes melted a bit: "Third sister, don't worry, my life in Jinyang Marquis Mansion is much better than before."

Jia Shu still didn't believe it. When the Marquis of Jinyang still had the title of Marquis, Jia Zhi's life in the Marquis was so bad. How could it be possible that the Marquis of Jinyang's title was lost because of the Lin family? It will also make Jia Zhi feel better.

Although that incident was caused by Marquis Jinyang himself, people are prone to anger.

Jia Zhi is her elder sister, and the relationship between the two can be considered close.

Jia Shu thought that Jia Zhi wanted to keep her from worrying, so he reported good news but not bad news.

Jia Zhi pursed her lips: "Third sister, I didn't lie." She turned her head to look in the direction of Jinyang Hou's mansion, her eyes were cold, "Jinyang Hou's ancestors and grandchildren really don't like me, and they want to kill me... ..."

Jia Shu frowned and looked at Jia Zhi worriedly.

She laughed again, "But you should know that the Marquis of Jinyang's family are all soft-hearted people."

Jia Shu was taken aback for a moment, and then she heard her say again, "After the Marquis of Jinyang was demoted, he could only move out of the original Marquis's mansion, and his family moved to another house on the same street. It's just that without the protection of the title, many people Seeing that it is profitable, one after another came to fight the autumn wind."

"how come……"

Jia Shu was stunned for a moment, then realized that the Marquis of Jinyang might have encountered the same predicament as in the original work of A Dream of Red Mansions, when Jia Yuanchun was conferred the title of concubine, Dai Quan could go to the Rongguo Mansion to fight the autumn breeze with just a little eunuch at will.

Calculate the two situations——

There is a super-class old lady sitting in the town, there is an incompetent male master, and there is a spoiled brat...

The situation of Jinyang Marquis Mansion is even worse than that of Rongguo Mansion.After all, although Jia Yuanchun is useless, he is still a concubine. Even if others bully the Rongguo Mansion, they dare not go too far.

Jia Zhi saw that Jia Shu thought of it, and the smile on his face became brighter: "Sister, I don't know, the property of the Marquis of Jinyang's mansion has already been lavishly spent by the masters and mistresses of Marquis of Jinyang in recent generations. Those people threatened, and even took out all the property of the family. Now, that family is counting on me to support them. Without money, who in the family will listen to them? Now I am the only one in the family After all, who dares to bully me?"

She looked at Jia Shu and sighed, "Sister, I understand that when this girl marries, it's better to marry low than high."

A low-marriage woman, as long as she can stand up on her own and won't be coaxed by others, even if she wants to live a bad life, it will be difficult.

Jia Shu laughed: "Then sister, congratulations to my sister for getting a blessing in disguise."

Jia Zhi answered the words with a smile, "Thanks to my sister."

If Jia Shu hadn't pulled her into the Caizhuang Pavilion before, even if the Jinyang Marquis Mansion had declined, she wouldn't have so much money to support her family, and she didn't know how difficult life would be in the Jinyang Marquis Mansion.At some point, she couldn't bear to go astray.

"How is big sister's life in Xiuguo's mansion?" Jia Shu asked casually, unexpectedly, Jia Zhi's expression immediately sank.

"what happened?"

Jia Zhi hesitated for a while, and after finishing his wording, he said, "Big sister is just like that in the Xiuguo mansion. She was bullied in the first place, but she is still bullied now." She sneered, "It's just because of her precious son. Just started trying to fight back."

Jia Shu has no friendship with Jia Gu, so naturally he knows little about her life.Just hearing this, I felt strange: "Isn't this a good thing?"

A woman, as long as she doesn't indulge in love anymore, and doesn't want to be bullied like a bun, she will never live a bad life.

"Unfortunately, before she fought back, our good eldest sister always wanted to give her the best of everything, including her father's love, so she did some disgraceful things." Jia Zhi seemed to think of something bad, Her eyes were full of disgust, "She didn't have any scheming, and someone tried to figure out what was in her heart, and for no reason killed her two loyal girls."

Jia Shu was stunned: "Two girls?"

Impatiently, Jia Zhi turned his head and turned to Jia Gu who was sitting next to Jia Shishi, and said, "Just those two dowry girls."

Jia Shu was puzzled: "Those two girls have already reached their age... Are they married to the family?"

"It's more than that! The two girls saw that she was so stupid, and they became aunts one by one, thinking that they could help her, but who knows... she wakes up when she dies."

It's just that after the person died, Jia Zhi didn't have much affection for Jia Gu.

Jia Zhi and Jia Gu have a good relationship, but no matter how good the relationship is, it can't stand her wasting it.For the sake of the child in her womb all these years, she has done countless things that hurt her heart, and she refused to listen to the key points of persuasion.Gradually, Jia Zhi and Jia Gu lost contact.

When the news of the two dowry maids disappeared, Jia Zhi decided to cut off all contact with her even after knowing that Jia Gu had woken up.

Jia Shu opened his mouth and was speechless for a long time.

What is the use of awakening after death?Those two servant girls who were loyal to Jia Gu will never come back again.

Jia Shu looked at Jia Gu who was sitting next to Jia Shishi. No wonder, when she first saw her, she felt that Jia Gu was different from what he used to give her.
