[Red House] Flowers are good jade circles
Chapter 46
Daiyu didn't know so much until after Jia Qin came to the door. Knowing that the couple had moved away from their parents and lived in the backyard of the shop, and devoted themselves to taking care of the business, it was reassuring for her.
"But it's hard for you." Thinking back, Jia Qin was willing to replace her because she could marry a good family.But now, being reduced to a commoner, all this hard work is in vain.
"No, I'm not bitter at all. On the contrary, I feel very happy. I've never been so happy in my life." Jia Qin knew that although the younger sister raised in the Lin Mansion was smart, she might never understand her situation.
If it wasn't for marrying Shi Yuan, although the stepmother would not dare to send her as a concubine, it is very possible for someone to fill in the house for some money, or to marry her to a vulgar family deliberately not to make her feel better. .
At least Shi Yuan has a handsome face and the best education, even if he is degraded, he is still better than the people in the market.What's more, now that he has changed his arrogance and is willing to lower his head and learn to do business, it is already a surprise.
"It's better for you to be happy than anything else. If you lack something, just open your mouth. Don't dare to say anything else. For money, I..." Jia Qin hurriedly stopped, and said repeatedly: "If you say this, I won't dare to come again. I am definitely not I came to borrow money from my sister."
He also rambled on some words, to the effect that he wanted to establish friendship with her, and it would be great to allow her to come in and say a few words during festivals.
"What's the difficulty? If you have time, just come and talk." Seeing that she was courteous, Daiyu agreed casually.
When Jia Qin came, she brought a gift, which was not expensive, and it was a screen she embroidered by herself, which was also rare.Daiyu then returned the cakes made in her own kitchen and a horse of newly acquired material.
As soon as Jia Qin left, Chen Xiang frowned, "Miss, I don't know if I should say something or not."
"Follow me again. If I don't let you tell me, you won't tell me." Daiyu gave her a sideways look.
Chen Xiang smiled and said: "The servant girl must have said that, Miss Qin is pulling up the tiger's skin as a banner, don't be fooled by her."
To put it bluntly, her mind is not difficult to guess.To open a shop outside to do business, you have to deal with all kinds of religions and streams.If there is no one behind you, in this corner of Jinling, just anyone who comes along can crush you to death.
If Jia Qin could enter and leave the Lin family's door at any time, as a boudoir friend of Miss Lin's family, she would be able to scare many people outside.
"It can save them a lot of trouble, so, miss, you have to think it over carefully." Chen Xiang is a maidservant, so naturally she was ignorant of such a mentality earlier.
It turned out to be like this, Daiyu smiled, and said nonchalantly: "It's nothing, the troubles that can be saved by being a close friend in the boudoir are probably small things, and it doesn't matter if you help her block the rogues. It's a big thing, and it needs to be cleared up." Yes, we just ignore it."
"Ignore it at that time, wouldn't it be a loss of face for you." Chen Xiang still felt that something was wrong, and muttered a few words in a low voice.
Daiyu laughed, there is no shame in this.She has never been a person who cares too much about her face, but soon the conversation between Chen Xiang and Dai Yu changed one by one.
Jia Min arranged a marriage for Chen Xiang. Chen Xiang was supposed to get married three years ago, but her fiancé died, and some ugly rumors spread during the period.Jia Min kept her for three more years and found another suitable one.
"Chen Xiang is a good person, but it was delayed because of serving you. I want to marry her off now. After two years, I will have a baby, and I will be transferred back to you as a daughter-in-law." Jia Min discussed with her daughter carefully.
Daiyu just listened, but didn't speak, because it was obvious that Jia Min had arranged for her to be her companion when she got married.
"I listen to my mother."
When Chen Xiang got the letter and came back, she was too shy to see anyone, Daiyu teased her for putting on makeup before she walked out of her room.Four pieces of silk forging, 200 taels of silver, plus a set of silver-faced face, Daiyu's makeup made Chen Xiang's eyes reddened.
"It's too heavy."
"No matter how heavy you are, it can't compare to you serving me for so many years. Live a good life. After a few years, if you want, you can return to my side."
"Slave is willing, willing."
"Then let's make a deal." Seeing her crying like tears, Daiyu wanted to amuse her, but she couldn't say it.
Daiyu went smoothly here, but Jiuye's mansion lost his wife and lost his army.An adult son was lying on the bed wrapped like a scorpion, several bones were broken and his face was scratched.
The imperial doctor said that he should lie down for at least half a year before getting up.Even if it's fine, I'm afraid walking is a little worse than normal people. In short, this son's future is considered gone.
Everything can be accommodated in the court, but those with physical defects can't be tolerated. Even the current biological son, the fifth master who is above the ninth master, is like an invisible person because of his leg disease.Not to mention a grandson, the emperor has no shortage of grandsons.
The fire in Master Jiu's heart was already extinguished before it could be wiped out.The Wei family who took the lead was wiped out, the historians who responded positively cut their titles, and the Jia family who supported secretly paid for a daughter to replace the real golden branch and jade leaf marriage.So all of this is frightening.
At this time, the Eighth Master, the Ninth Master, including the Tenth Master and the Fourteenth Master below were gathered together, their faces were so gloomy that they could drip water.
Ba Ye's face was even paler, "Jiji camped for a few years, Huang Ama only moved her little finger, and everything turned into flowers in the water, like the moon in the mirror. It's not the sky that wants to kill me, it's Huang Ama who wants to kill me .”
"Myna, don't say that. The top is counting, and there are only a few who can get it. Except for myna, who is not a cruel and merciless generation. If they sit on it, will there be a way for our brothers to survive? If Huang Ama wants to keep such a These sons should also consider the reputation outside, how can any one be comparable to mynah." Master Shi hated to be unfair, but like everyone else, he had nothing to do with the emperor.
"The power of the sky is unpredictable, we should stay in hibernation for a while." No matter how reluctant Ba Ye was, he knew that this was the best choice now.Although the emperor didn't say anything, but it was not too early or too late, at this time to send these people down, Ba Ye always felt that the emperor knew about their plan.
Thinking of the sinister look in the emperor's eyes when he looked at him, I felt chills down my spine, and had an urge to hide.But the more this is the case, the more tempting this seat is to him. As long as he sits on it, his humble background can be washed away.Presumably, if Er Niang knew about it underground, she must be very pleased.
"I think it's a little bit of putting the cart before the horse when we only work hard with civil servants. It's too difficult to please Huang Ama." The Fourteenth Master felt that their direction was a bit wrong and pointed it out.
"Huang Ama is a wise emperor through the ages. What can escape his eyes? Instead of tossing around here in Jinling and annoying him, it's better to go outside and do some merit. You can see it."
"Fourteenth brother wants to..." Eighth Master understood a little bit and was very moved. They, the princes and grandchildren, have suffered such hardships. Fourteenth Brother did this obviously to help him improve his status.
"Yes, that's what my brother thinks. Instead of sitting in a sad city, it's better to fight hard. I will look for opportunities, and I hope a few brothers will support me." Fourteen Yi bowed his hands, and the rest of the people agreed.
The Tenth Master and the Fourteenth Master left together, leaving only the Eighth Master and the Ninth Master. The Ninth Master stared at the direction where they disappeared with his sharp eyes like a falcon, and did not look at the Eighth Master. He seemed to be talking to himself, "Really? Is it for the starling?"
"He said, I just believe it." Ba Ye didn't look at Jiu Ye, but just stared at the teacup in his hand, watching the tea leaves floating in it, life is not like this ups and downs.He couldn't let go of any chance to float, even if it was a risk, he had to give it a try.
"Brother, I didn't say it, you have to persuade the eighth sister-in-law. She doesn't have a son-in-law, and she has a few side Fujins who are not bad, and she has a son who is no worse than a son-in-law. I'm afraid Huang Ama doesn't like the way your house is now. Yes." The emperor has always been indifferent to female sex, and he is particular about getting even exposure to rain and dew, and sons are born one after another.He was really good to his son, Fujin and Fujin all pointed at him one by one, and sometimes even added a few servants, just because he was afraid that his son would not live well.
If it is said that the emperor dislikes his son's life the most, the abolished prince will not mention it. The first thing is that women cannot be jealous.Ba Fujin made it clear that the chariots and horses were jealous, and they praised myna for being affectionate and righteous.But in the eyes of the emperor, this is a manifestation of incompetence.He can't even control his own Fujin, so who else can he control.
"It's not easy for your eighth sister-in-law. I really don't want to wrong her." Eighth master had an expression of not wanting to mention it.
"Is that the case with the Lin family?" Master Jiu felt angry when he thought of Hongxiang in his family.What kind of filial piety, this is playing him like a fool, who doesn't know that Hongxiang was tricked by them.
"My nephew has suffered such a big loss, how can I let it go and let the Zhu family propose marriage." Eighth Master pondered for a while, and then came up with an idea.
"The Zhu family? Isn't that..." Master Jiu was horrified.
"Didn't the fourth brother always support the abolished prince before? Zhu Chen was the only branch of the Zhu family who was implicated, and the other branch didn't live well. Without the support of the abolished prince, it's not normal to want to rely on the fourth brother Is it?" Ba Ye straightened his back, as long as he didn't talk about family matters, he regained his composure.
"Okay, myna is a good idea. Let the Zhu family come forward to disgust Lin Ruhai, and let Huang Ama see that the former team of the abolished prince is now turning to the fourth brother. Will Huang Ama take the fourth brother and the abolished prince in his heart?" The prince is making a comparison. Tall, really tall." Master Jiu clapped his hands, this is a very good thing.
As for whether Zhu You would agree, it was not in Jiu Ye's consideration at all.Does Zhu You dare to disagree?Their Zhu family is no longer the Zhu family when the prince was in power.
Jia Min didn't know that her precious daughter was being tricked again. She received a message from Jia's mother asking her to go back.
Mother Jia has been annoyed recently. Aunt Xue has complained to Mrs. Wang several times, saying that Baochai is sixteen, and if she is not settled, how can she, a mother, be worthy of the dead Master Xue and so on.It was nothing more than forcing Jia's family to let go, and settled the marriage between Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue that had been discussed in private.
Jia Zheng is optional, anyway, the Xue family is rich, and he also thinks it would be good for his son to find a wife with a generous dowry.As for how satisfied he was, he didn't. He also wanted something better, but he didn't have the ability to find it, so naturally he was happy to see it.
Jia's mother is a hundred dissatisfied, and Baoyu is his most beloved and good grandson. In her heart, even if he is worthy, he is worthy.How could a merchant like the Xue family be worthy of his grandson.Except for the rich dowry, it is really useless.Without a capable Yue family, after a hundred years, what will Baoyu have, and I feel very heartbroken when I think about it.
Therefore, she wanted to try harder and try her daughter's attitude.
"I am so old. I have been rich and prosperous all my life. I have never seen anything good. This life is enough. My only wish is to see my grandson get married and start a career. I don't worry about Yuanchun. Tanchun is already considered royal. Gege, she has her own blessing, and Yingchun is also married. For the rest, Xichun will be arranged by her father, only Baoyu and Daiyu make me worry."
Jia Min understood her mother's thoughts, seeing that she had white hair and was still worrying about her grandchildren, her heart was as soft as cotton, ready to collapse if poked.
But in his mouth, he had to say, "I think the second sister-in-law is a shrewd and capable person, and my brother has an errand, how could Baoyu's marriage be so bad. As for Daiyu, the master has already explained to me, so I don't want to worry about it. He made his own arrangements."
The daughter is his own, but the son-in-law is not. What's more, Lin Ruhai is now a second-rank official, and Jia Mu can't change it with a word.Knowing that there was no other way, Jia's mother clutched her daughter's sleeve tightly with her hands, her eyes fluttering.
Jia Min couldn't help but shed tears, "Mother, your daughter is not filial, so you can blame me, just don't get mad at yourself."
As soon as Jia Min left, Mother Jia called Mrs. Wang in and wiped her face so that no trace of crying could be seen.
Mrs. Wang knew that Mother Jia had made a decision, and she stood with her hands down, her eyebrows lowered. She thought that Baoyu was already fifteen, and you don't go out often at your age. Besides Daiyu, who else can you know? It's up to you.
She is not worried about Daiyu, she may have been worried before, but after what happened with the historian, Jia Min made it clear that the horses and horses do not want to see her.With such an arrogant temperament, how could she let her daughter marry into Jia's mansion.
"Have you made up your mind?"
"Yes, the daughter-in-law thinks Baochai is really attractive."
"Being married is the best way to get married. Baochai is a good-looking girl, and I know it, but this is far from enough. The current emperor seems to be lenient, but he doesn't like these lords left behind from the founding of the country. He thinks that we We have been enjoying the blessings for a long time, so long that he is unwilling to let us enjoy the blessings. Otherwise, why hold on to your elder brother's position as the eldest son? It's not because the elder brother's own conduct is dirty, even if it is another person, it is the same. General trend In front of me, these are small details. I am afraid that when I am behind, Baoyu will not have a strong Yue family to support him, and if there is anything, silver is the most unreliable."
It was the first time that Jia's mother had said so many words to Mrs. Wang. Mrs. Wang's eyes flickered, she was submissive on the surface, but she didn't take it seriously in her heart.This time such a big matter, the empress in the palace did not make it clear.
Seeing the deep disapproval in her daughter-in-law's eyes, Jia's mother's heart turned cold, and she waved her hand helplessly, "My children and grandchildren have their own blessings, I don't care, your own son, you can do whatever you want."
Mrs. Wang was overjoyed when she got the promise.Turning around, the betrothal ceremony was done in a lively manner, but none of the old lady's words caught my ears.
Jia Min also went to the ceremony because of her engagement, and Jia's mother aged ten years overnight, looking at the old woman who really looked like a dying woman, made Jia Min cry again.
"You only promised me one thing." Jia's mother was still worried. "Anyway, Baoyu is your nephew. If anything happens, you must keep him safe."
"Mother... daughter, I promise you." Jia Min felt that this was really the most difficult conversation in his life.
Regarding Baoyu and Baochai's engagement, if anyone is happier than Mrs. Wang, it must be Daiyu.It was like letting go of a boulder in my heart, and even my breathing became smoother.
She went to add makeup to Baochai herself, a plum blossom hairpin inlaid with rubies, and the rubies on it were specially cut gemstones from the diorama shop.
Even Xue Baochai was amazed when he saw it, "My sister actually got this thing. My mother went there several times, but she couldn't get it together. My sister should really keep it for herself. This thing is so rare." "Under the refraction of the sun, the ruby radiates dazzling light, and it is almost impossible to look directly at it.This kind of elegance, which woman does not like it.
"It's just a coincidence. I'm still young, and there will be more opportunities in the future. Sister, don't refuse." Daiyu was just polite, but she didn't know what she said, but she sounded intentional.Baochai relaxed for a moment, and immediately smiled, but couldn't hide the trace of sadness in her eyes.But she was open-minded by nature, and quickly put this emotion aside, and concentrated on talking to her.
"Sister Baochai wants to become Baochai's second grandma, so I really don't have to leave now." Xichun was very happy. Compared with other people, she preferred Baochai to be Baochai's second grandma.While speaking, he glanced at Daiyu intentionally or unintentionally.
"Sister Xiangyun also wants to come, but she won't come if she says it's inauspicious. Let me bring you this bracelet." The bracelet that Xichun brought out looked good, but Baochai frowned.
"This is something that Sister Xiangyun carries with her, let her keep it in mind." Baochai knew that when Shi Xiangyun came to Jia's house, the only thing on her body was the bracelet left by her mother.
"That's what I said too, but she insists on me bringing it over, and I can't help it." Xichun pouted slightly, and stuffed the bracelet into Baochai's hand, "If you want to return it, I won't. "
Daiyu said goodbye while they were talking, wondering why Shi Xiangyun would give such an important thing to Baochai.
She asked Chen Xiang subconsciously, only to realize that Chen Xiang had already gone back to get married, and Xing Guo and Bai Lu were by her side.When she turned her head, Xingguo's mouth was filled with Yi Tang, like a squirrel stealing food, her cheeks were swollen. She didn't expect the young lady to turn around at this time, and she hiccupped.
"Okay, eat slowly." Daiyu was angry and funny, but her heart froze, she still lacked someone in her room.Grandma Wang is old, and she seldom cares about her house anymore.As soon as Chen Xiang left, Xing Guo and Bai Lu were picked up.
There is definitely no problem with their loyalty, but after all, they are young, there used to be Chen Xiang at the front, and Xingguo is used to obeying orders.Now that there is no one to direct, she is not used to it.
"Miss, are you wondering about the bracelet?" Bai Lu took the initiative to speak.
"Eh, how do you know?" Daiyu really underestimated her maid, this Bailu used to be a gourd with a sawn mouth, honestly took care of the affairs of the house, and never talked much.It was the first time that he took the initiative to speak in front of her, especially outside.
"Miss has frowned since she saw the bracelet, and this servant can see it naturally. This servant boldly treats a gentleman's belly with a villain's heart, probably no one wants to be a widow for a lifetime." Bai Lu lowered her head and stopped talking.
Daiyu glanced at her appreciatively, "That's right."
Shi Xiangyun does have reason to curry favor with Baochai, for his own life to be better, and for Jiamu to stay in Jia's mansion after a hundred years, Mrs. Xing can't count on it, and counting on Baochai is indeed the way.But just like this, it's not enough for her to spend such a large amount of money.
Everyone knew what this bracelet meant to her, but she just took it out.It looks like a surrender. The reason for Baochai's surrender is that Baoyu can take concubines.
Yes, yes, if the widow remarries, the Jia family will not hesitate to pay another dowry, but as a widow, what kind of family can she marry.Doesn't she feel chilled about the Wei family's affairs and the Shi's family's affairs?I am afraid that in her eyes, only Jia's mansion can make her feel at ease.
Then, being Baoyu's concubine is the best choice.Baochai is magnanimous, and Baoyu is her cousin. They grew up together since they were young, and they have affection for each other.
Baochai must have noticed it too, but she didn't know how she would solve it.
"Miss." Xingguo finally swallowed Yitang, looked at Daiyu pitifully, with tears in her eyes.
"Okay, I didn't say anything about you, so it must not be like this in the future." Daiyu really didn't feel much, but she had two pieces of candy in her mouth.
"Oh." Xingguo lowered her head, and gave Bai Lu a hard look, Chen Xiang popped up right after she left, what a villain.
When Jia Min heard about the bracelet lawsuit, she just covered her lips and smiled, "There is no need for Baochai to make things difficult, Mrs. Wang will never allow it."
Seeing her daughter's eyes slightly raised, she pointed to her with a smile, "She was picked up from the Wei family. The Jia family raised her and has nothing to do with anyone else. If Baoyu took her as a concubine, although the concubine's relatives are not considered relatives, the Shi family will not be relatives." Different from others."
No need to say any more, Daiyu understood, the Shi family is such a big family, if Shi Xiangyun takes Baoyu as his concubine, is it afraid that the Shi family will not find a chance to come?
"Besides, Shi Xiangyun thinks it's love, will Baochai think it's love?" When sisters are sisters, it's love, but when they serve a husband together, love becomes entanglement. How can Baochai not? fear.Jia Min pointed it out for her daughter one by one, and said: "A wife is a wife, and a concubine is a concubine. Only when the wives and concubines are clear can the family not be chaotic. The most taboo is ignorance of wives and concubines. What kind of cousin is a concubine or a down-and-out relative is a concubine. It is absolutely unacceptable. Then It’s all a source of chaos.”
"Hey, let's talk about it." Daiyu suddenly realized that something was wrong, it was her father's concubine.
"Your father, that's still on your mind." Jia Min knew that her daughter had remembered, covered her lips and chuckled lightly, and briefly mentioned it.When Mo Xiang made trouble back then, Lin Ruhai was so frightened that he killed him cruelly.The remaining three concubines have been thrown in the small courtyard, which is like house arrest.Among the three concubines, two were raised by servants, and one was a little family girl, none of them dared to make trouble.
If you try it with someone who is related to the family, Daiyu will understand the power of it after thinking about it.
"But it's hard for you." Thinking back, Jia Qin was willing to replace her because she could marry a good family.But now, being reduced to a commoner, all this hard work is in vain.
"No, I'm not bitter at all. On the contrary, I feel very happy. I've never been so happy in my life." Jia Qin knew that although the younger sister raised in the Lin Mansion was smart, she might never understand her situation.
If it wasn't for marrying Shi Yuan, although the stepmother would not dare to send her as a concubine, it is very possible for someone to fill in the house for some money, or to marry her to a vulgar family deliberately not to make her feel better. .
At least Shi Yuan has a handsome face and the best education, even if he is degraded, he is still better than the people in the market.What's more, now that he has changed his arrogance and is willing to lower his head and learn to do business, it is already a surprise.
"It's better for you to be happy than anything else. If you lack something, just open your mouth. Don't dare to say anything else. For money, I..." Jia Qin hurriedly stopped, and said repeatedly: "If you say this, I won't dare to come again. I am definitely not I came to borrow money from my sister."
He also rambled on some words, to the effect that he wanted to establish friendship with her, and it would be great to allow her to come in and say a few words during festivals.
"What's the difficulty? If you have time, just come and talk." Seeing that she was courteous, Daiyu agreed casually.
When Jia Qin came, she brought a gift, which was not expensive, and it was a screen she embroidered by herself, which was also rare.Daiyu then returned the cakes made in her own kitchen and a horse of newly acquired material.
As soon as Jia Qin left, Chen Xiang frowned, "Miss, I don't know if I should say something or not."
"Follow me again. If I don't let you tell me, you won't tell me." Daiyu gave her a sideways look.
Chen Xiang smiled and said: "The servant girl must have said that, Miss Qin is pulling up the tiger's skin as a banner, don't be fooled by her."

It's a big thing, and it needs to be cleared up." Yes, we just ignore it."
"Ignore it at that time, wouldn't it be a loss of face for you." Chen Xiang still felt that something was wrong, and muttered a few words in a low voice.
Daiyu laughed, there is no shame in this.She has never been a person who cares too much about her face, but soon the conversation between Chen Xiang and Dai Yu changed one by one.
Jia Min arranged a marriage for Chen Xiang. Chen Xiang was supposed to get married three years ago, but her fiancé died, and some ugly rumors spread during the period.Jia Min kept her for three more years and found another suitable one.
"Chen Xiang is a good person, but it was delayed because of serving you. I want to marry her off now. After two years, I will have a baby, and I will be transferred back to you as a daughter-in-law." Jia Min discussed with her daughter carefully.
Daiyu just listened, but didn't speak, because it was obvious that Jia Min had arranged for her to be her companion when she got married.
"I listen to my mother."
When Chen Xiang got the letter and came back, she was too shy to see anyone, Daiyu teased her for putting on makeup before she walked out of her room.Four pieces of silk forging, 200 taels of silver, plus a set of silver-faced face, Daiyu's makeup made Chen Xiang's eyes reddened.
"It's too heavy."
"No matter how heavy you are, it can't compare to you serving me for so many years. Live a good life. After a few years, if you want, you can return to my side."
"Slave is willing, willing."
"Then let's make a deal." Seeing her crying like tears, Daiyu wanted to amuse her, but she couldn't say it.

At this time, the Eighth Master, the Ninth Master, including the Tenth Master and the Fourteenth Master below were gathered together, their faces were so gloomy that they could drip water.
Ba Ye's face was even paler, "Jiji camped for a few years, Huang Ama only moved her little finger, and everything turned into flowers in the water, like the moon in the mirror. It's not the sky that wants to kill me, it's Huang Ama who wants to kill me .”

"Brother, I didn't say it, you have to persuade the eighth sister-in-law.

The first thing is that women cannot be jealous.Ba Fujin made it clear that the chariots and horses were jealous, and they praised myna for being affectionate and righteous.But in the eyes of the emperor, this is a manifestation of incompetence.He can't even control his own Fujin, so who else can he control.
"It's not easy for your eighth sister-in-law. I really don't want to wrong her." Eighth master had an expression of not wanting to mention it.
"Is that the case with the Lin family?" Master Jiu felt angry when he thought of Hongxiang in his family.What kind of filial piety, this is playing him like a fool, who doesn't know that Hongxiang was tricked by them.
"My nephew has suffered such a big loss, how can I let it go and let the Zhu family propose marriage." Eighth Master pondered for a while, and then came up with an idea.
"The Zhu family? Isn't that..." Master Jiu was horrified.
"Didn't the fourth brother always support the abolished prince before? Zhu Chen was the only branch of the Zhu family who was implicated, and the other branch didn't live well. Without the support of the abolished prince, it's not normal to want to rely on the fourth brother Is it?" Ba Ye straightened his back, as long as he didn't talk about family matters, he regained his composure.
"Okay, myna is a good idea. Let the Zhu family come forward to disgust Lin Ruhai, and let Huang Ama see that the former team of the abolished prince is now turning to the fourth brother. Will Huang Ama take the fourth brother and the abolished prince in his heart?" The prince is making a comparison. Tall, really tall." Master Jiu clapped his hands, this is a very good thing.
As for whether Zhu You would agree, it was not in Jiu Ye's consideration at all.Does Zhu You dare to disagree?Their Zhu family is no longer the Zhu family when the prince was in power.
Jia Min didn't know that her precious daughter was being tricked again. She received a message from Jia's mother asking her to go back.
Mother Jia has been annoyed recently. Aunt Xue has complained to Mrs. Wang several times, saying that Baochai is sixteen, and if she is not settled, how can she, a mother, be worthy of the dead Master Xue and so on.It was nothing more than forcing Jia's family to let go, and settled the marriage between Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue that had been discussed in private.
Jia Zheng is optional, anyway, the Xue family is rich, and he also thinks it would be good for his son to find a wife with a generous dowry.As for how satisfied he was, he didn't. He also wanted something better, but he didn't have the ability to find it, so naturally he was happy to see it.
Jia's mother is a hundred dissatisfied, and Baoyu is his most beloved and good grandson. In her heart, even if he is worthy, he is worthy.How could a merchant like the Xue family be worthy of his grandson.Except for the rich dowry, it is really useless.Without a capable Yue family, after a hundred years, what will Baoyu have, and I feel very heartbroken when I think about it.
Therefore, she wanted to try harder and try her daughter's attitude.
"I am so old. I have been rich and prosperous all my life. I have never seen anything good. This life is enough. My only wish is to see my grandson get married and start a career. I don't worry about Yuanchun. Tanchun is already considered royal. Gege, she has her own blessing, and Yingchun is also married. For the rest, Xichun will be arranged by her father, only Baoyu and Daiyu make me worry."
Jia Min understood her mother's thoughts, seeing that she had white hair and was still worrying about her grandchildren, her heart was as soft as cotton, ready to collapse if poked.
But in his mouth, he had to say, "I think the second sister-in-law is a shrewd and capable person, and my brother has an errand, how could Baoyu's marriage be so bad. As for Daiyu, the master has already explained to me, so I don't want to worry about it. He made his own arrangements."
The daughter is his own, but the son-in-law is not. What's more, Lin Ruhai is now a second-rank official, and Jia Mu can't change it with a word.Knowing that there was no other way, Jia's mother clutched her daughter's sleeve tightly with her hands, her eyes fluttering.
Jia Min couldn't help but shed tears, "Mother, your daughter is not filial, so you can blame me, just don't get mad at yourself."
As soon as Jia Min left, Mother Jia called Mrs. Wang in and wiped her face so that no trace of crying could be seen.
Mrs. Wang knew that Mother Jia had made a decision, and she stood with her hands down, her eyebrows lowered. She thought that Baoyu was already fifteen, and you don't go out often at your age. Besides Daiyu, who else can you know? It's up to you.
She is not worried about Daiyu, she may have been worried before, but after what happened with the historian, Jia Min made it clear that the horses and horses do not want to see her.With such an arrogant temperament, how could she let her daughter marry into Jia's mansion.
"Have you made up your mind?"
"Yes, the daughter-in-law thinks Baochai is really attractive."
"Being married is the best way to get married. Baochai is a good-looking girl, and I know it, but this is far from enough. The current emperor seems to be lenient, but he doesn't like these lords left behind from the founding of the country. He thinks that we We have been enjoying the blessings for a long time, so long that he is unwilling to let us enjoy the blessings. Otherwise, why hold on to your elder brother's position as the eldest son? It's not because the elder brother's own conduct is dirty, even if it is another person, it is the same. General trend In front of me, these are small details. I am afraid that when I am behind, Baoyu will not have a strong Yue family to support him, and if there is anything, silver is the most unreliable."
It was the first time that Jia's mother had said so many words to Mrs. Wang. Mrs. Wang's eyes flickered, she was submissive on the surface, but she didn't take it seriously in her heart.This time such a big matter, the empress in the palace did not make it clear.
Seeing the deep disapproval in her daughter-in-law's eyes, Jia's mother's heart turned cold, and she waved her hand helplessly, "My children and grandchildren have their own blessings, I don't care, your own son, you can do whatever you want."
Mrs. Wang was overjoyed when she got the promise.Turning around, the betrothal ceremony was done in a lively manner, but none of the old lady's words caught my ears.
Jia Min also went to the ceremony because of her engagement, and Jia's mother aged ten years overnight, looking at the old woman who really looked like a dying woman, made Jia Min cry again.
"You only promised me one thing." Jia's mother was still worried. "Anyway, Baoyu is your nephew. If anything happens, you must keep him safe."
"Mother... daughter, I promise you." Jia Min felt that this was really the most difficult conversation in his life.
Regarding Baoyu and Baochai's engagement, if anyone is happier than Mrs. Wang, it must be Daiyu.It was like letting go of a boulder in my heart, and even my breathing became smoother.
She went to add makeup to Baochai herself, a plum blossom hairpin inlaid with rubies, and the rubies on it were specially cut gemstones from the diorama shop.
Even Xue Baochai was amazed when he saw it, "My sister actually got this thing. My mother went there several times, but she couldn't get it together. My sister should really keep it for herself. This thing is so rare." "Under the refraction of the sun, the ruby radiates dazzling light, and it is almost impossible to look directly at it.This kind of elegance, which woman does not like it.
"It's just a coincidence. I'm still young, and there will be more opportunities in the future. Sister, don't refuse." Daiyu was just polite, but she didn't know what she said, but she sounded intentional.Baochai relaxed for a moment, and immediately smiled, but couldn't hide the trace of sadness in her eyes.But she was open-minded by nature, and quickly put this emotion aside, and concentrated on talking to her.
"Sister Baochai wants to become Baochai's second grandma, so I really don't have to leave now." Xichun was very happy. Compared with other people, she preferred Baochai to be Baochai's second grandma.While speaking, he glanced at Daiyu intentionally or unintentionally.
"Sister Xiangyun also wants to come, but she won't come if she says it's inauspicious. Let me bring you this bracelet." The bracelet that Xichun brought out looked good, but Baochai frowned.
"This is something that Sister Xiangyun carries with her, let her keep it in mind." Baochai knew that when Shi Xiangyun came to Jia's house, the only thing on her body was the bracelet left by her mother.
"That's what I said too, but she insists on me bringing it over, and I can't help it." Xichun pouted slightly, and stuffed the bracelet into Baochai's hand, "If you want to return it, I won't. "
Daiyu said goodbye while they were talking, wondering why Shi Xiangyun would give such an important thing to Baochai.
She asked Chen Xiang subconsciously, only to realize that Chen Xiang had already gone back to get married, and Xing Guo and Bai Lu were by her side.When she turned her head, Xingguo's mouth was filled with Yi Tang, like a squirrel stealing food, her cheeks were swollen. She didn't expect the young lady to turn around at this time, and she hiccupped.
"Okay, eat slowly." Daiyu was angry and funny, but her heart froze, she still lacked someone in her room.Grandma Wang is old, and she seldom cares about her house anymore.As soon as Chen Xiang left, Xing Guo and Bai Lu were picked up.
There is definitely no problem with their loyalty, but after all, they are young, there used to be Chen Xiang at the front, and Xingguo is used to obeying orders.Now that there is no one to direct, she is not used to it.
"Miss, are you wondering about the bracelet?" Bai Lu took the initiative to speak.
"Eh, how do you know?" Daiyu really underestimated her maid, this Bailu used to be a gourd with a sawn mouth, honestly took care of the affairs of the house, and never talked much.It was the first time that he took the initiative to speak in front of her, especially outside.
"Miss has frowned since she saw the bracelet, and this servant can see it naturally. This servant boldly treats a gentleman's belly with a villain's heart, probably no one wants to be a widow for a lifetime." Bai Lu lowered her head and stopped talking.
Daiyu glanced at her appreciatively, "That's right."
Shi Xiangyun does have reason to curry favor with Baochai, for his own life to be better, and for Jiamu to stay in Jia's mansion after a hundred years, Mrs. Xing can't count on it, and counting on Baochai is indeed the way.But just like this, it's not enough for her to spend such a large amount of money.
Everyone knew what this bracelet meant to her, but she just took it out.It looks like a surrender. The reason for Baochai's surrender is that Baoyu can take concubines.
Yes, yes, if the widow remarries, the Jia family will not hesitate to pay another dowry, but as a widow, what kind of family can she marry.Doesn't she feel chilled about the Wei family's affairs and the Shi's family's affairs?I am afraid that in her eyes, only Jia's mansion can make her feel at ease.
Then, being Baoyu's concubine is the best choice.Baochai is magnanimous, and Baoyu is her cousin. They grew up together since they were young, and they have affection for each other.
Baochai must have noticed it too, but she didn't know how she would solve it.
"Miss." Xingguo finally swallowed Yitang, looked at Daiyu pitifully, with tears in her eyes.
"Okay, I didn't say anything about you, so it must not be like this in the future." Daiyu really didn't feel much, but she had two pieces of candy in her mouth.
"Oh." Xingguo lowered her head, and gave Bai Lu a hard look, Chen Xiang popped up right after she left, what a villain.
When Jia Min heard about the bracelet lawsuit, she just covered her lips and smiled, "There is no need for Baochai to make things difficult, Mrs. Wang will never allow it."
Seeing her daughter's eyes slightly raised, she pointed to her with a smile, "She was picked up from the Wei family. The Jia family raised her and has nothing to do with anyone else. If Baoyu took her as a concubine, although the concubine's relatives are not considered relatives, the Shi family will not be relatives." Different from others."
No need to say any more, Daiyu understood, the Shi family is such a big family, if Shi Xiangyun takes Baoyu as his concubine, is it afraid that the Shi family will not find a chance to come?
"Besides, Shi Xiangyun thinks it's love, will Baochai think it's love?" When sisters are sisters, it's love, but when they serve a husband together, love becomes entanglement. How can Baochai not? fear.Jia Min pointed it out for her daughter one by one, and said: "A wife is a wife, and a concubine is a concubine. Only when the wives and concubines are clear can the family not be chaotic. The most taboo is ignorance of wives and concubines. What kind of cousin is a concubine or a down-and-out relative is a concubine. It is absolutely unacceptable. Then It’s all a source of chaos.”
"Hey, let's talk about it." Daiyu suddenly realized that something was wrong, it was her father's concubine.
"Your father, that's still on your mind." Jia Min knew that her daughter had remembered, covered her lips and chuckled lightly, and briefly mentioned it.When Mo Xiang made trouble back then, Lin Ruhai was so frightened that he killed him cruelly.The remaining three concubines have been thrown in the small courtyard, which is like house arrest.Among the three concubines, two were raised by servants, and one was a little family girl, none of them dared to make trouble.
If you try it with someone who is related to the family, Daiyu will understand the power of it after thinking about it.
