Jia Zhu, the White Magic God of the Red Chamber

Ya'erlin kept sneering in his heart, but stood up immediately with extreme fear on his face: "Master, calm down, old lady forgive me. Zhu'er can't speak, which made the old lady displeased, so Zhu'er will go back to the study to think about it. To be copied After finishing the ten filial piety scriptures and enshrining the Buddha, come to apologize to the old lady."

When he said this, Jia Shishi completely lost the chance to say what he wanted to say.She gave Ya'erlin and Mrs. Wang a veiled look, said a few polite words, and then waved with a livid face to let the mother and son leave.

Ya'erlin helped Mrs. Wang to leave, leaving Jia Zheng looking at Jia Shishi with concern.He looked anxious, but he didn't know what to say to make Jia Shishi happy.Seeing him like this, Jia Shishi became even more impatient, and eventually even drove him out.

I thought this youngest son was good, but now it seems that it is not the case.It's finally easy for the Jia family to have such a promising Jia Zhu, but being promising also means that he is not as easy to control as his uncle and father.

It's really a pity, Jia Daishan didn't know anything about Hou Zhai back then, otherwise he would have controlled her so well and given her the opportunity to be a wife instead of a husband.Everything was going well at first, but everything went wrong after Jia Zhu almost died of illness and came back to life again!

Seriously ill!

Jia Shishi's cloudy eyes narrowed slightly, and the brocade handkerchief in her hand was pulled out of shape by her.In the end, he ordered the girl beside him to let Nanny Lai come into the mansion to pay her respects tomorrow morning.

Jia Zheng left Rongqing Hall and walked towards the courtyard behind Rongxi Hall with an angry expression on his face. He stepped into the main courtyard and wanted to vent his anger at Mrs. Wang, but he didn't see anyone.

"Where's your wife?"

The eldest maid, Ming Fang, stepped forward with a natural expression, bent her knees, and replied, "Master, my wife hasn't come back yet."

"Haven't come back yet? Didn't she leave Rongqing Hall with Zhu'er first..." Jia Zheng's voice stopped abruptly, the moment he realized that his wife and son were on the same front and he was excluded, With a livid face, he waved his sleeves and left, "When my wife comes back, tell her that I'm going to Zhao... Aunt Zhou's."

Originally, he wanted to go to Aunt Zhao's place, but thinking of her towering belly, he had to choose to go to Aunt Zhou's room.Because of this, he made another mark on Mrs. Wang's head.Mrs. Wang is old, and Aunt Zhou is even three years older than her. The only one who can serve him in his backyard is Aunt Zhao.

And after Aunt Zhao became pregnant, Mrs. Wang didn't even think about arranging another servant for him!

Before Jia Zheng didn't feel it, he only realized it when he didn't get well with Jia Shi's today. At this time, there is no one who can let him vent or confide in him!

And all of this is Mrs. Wang's fault.It is said that she is virtuous and generous, like a bodhisattva who is always kind, but in reality?Even Mrs. Xing, the eldest sister-in-law, can't compare.Although Mrs. Xing is relatively stupid, she is much more generous than Mrs. Wang when it comes to aunts and Tongfang.

Jia Zheng, feeling displeased, quickly came to the West Wing in the courtyard, where Aunt Zhou lived.When she saw Jia Zheng, a look of shock flashed across her face. Ever since she had aborted her child more than ten years ago, she had been disheartened, and since then she has basically become a transparent person in Jia Zheng's backyard.

Although Mrs. Wang didn't deduct her share, the people below are all downplaying.If she hadn't been born in a family, she would have arranged good jobs for the family when she first became Jia Zheng's roommate. Whether she could survive in this backyard is also a question.

Thinking of Aunt Zhao's arrogance, Aunt Zhou quickly flashed an unclear smile on her face.

As the first Aunt Zhou who became Jia Zheng's sidekick, she knew very well that Aunt Zhao's pregnancy was not because of her skill, but because the time had come.

When she was pregnant, she only thought about having Jia Zheng's heir, so she really gained a firm foothold in Rongguo Mansion.Even... when she learned from her husband that she was pregnant with a boy when she was four months pregnant, it wasn't that she didn't have other thoughts.

After all, at that time, Jia Zhu, the eldest son of the Second Household, was not yet a year old.

Although the concubine has no right to inherit the title, the eldest son of the concubine has a different status than the other concubines, right?

It's a pity that her newly raised ambition was soon completely shattered.The male fetus that had been formed in her belly was gone, and she even lost the qualifications to be a mother, and there was no possibility of having a child anymore.

Aunt Zhou didn't hate Mrs. Wang and Jia Zhu, but she also hated herself for being short-sighted.As the sons and daughters of the Rongguo Mansion, which generations of concubines in the Rongguo Mansion will end up better, whether they are sons or daughters?Even if he is in charge of the Jia family studies now, the old lady Jia Daishan from the Rongguo Mansion is nothing more than a scholar.

If the concubine is motivated, wouldn't it further highlight the incompetence of the concubine.

Although Aunt Zhou is illiterate, she is older and has read a lot, so she understands more.Therefore, Jia Zheng's arrival did not make her happy, but——if she could make Mrs. Wang feel a little bit more troubled, why would she not do it.

"If the master wants to come, why don't you tell the people around you first." Aunt Zhou put down the needle and thread in her hand and greeted her, and said with a low eyebrow, "I don't have anything here, so the master just came. I don’t even know how to serve the master.”

Jia Zheng frowned and glanced around the room.Although this room cannot be described as a snow cave, except for the furniture necessary for life, everything else is pitiful.It can't be compared with Mrs. Wang's main house, but it can be said that it is the same as Aunt Zhao's east wing.

"Is this always the case in your room?" Jia Zheng lowered his voice.

Aunt Zhou just smiled wryly and didn't speak.

Now Jia Zheng was even more angry and left again.

This Jia Wang family is really good!

It doesn't matter that there are few people in his backyard, but the housekeeper still manages like this. No wonder the old lady has been worried, and the account of the internal treasury is still in her hands!That's right, if the inner treasury is also handed over to Mrs. Wang, whether he is the master or not is even less important to her!

Aunt Zhou looked at the back of Jia Zheng who left angrily, and smiled.Her maid Yinxiu was at the side, she just felt that this smile sent a chill down her spine.

Ya'erlin and Mrs. Wang didn't know that Jia Zheng went to stay in the outer study at the end. They were in Yaerlin's inner study carefully talking about what Wang Ziteng came to say today.

"That's it." Mrs. Wang's face was still pale, "Although you interrupted the old lady that day, she never gave up the idea of ​​sending Yuanchun into the palace. The Jia family doesn't have many contacts and connections in the palace now, so she just Contacted your uncle privately."

"And your uncle got my letter a long time ago, knowing that you and I have no such intentions, and today he didn't even send the post first, so he came to the door and refused." Mrs. Wang's voice was angry, "It's your uncle who came, too. I just found out that the old lady not only contacted the Wang family in private, but also the Shi family and the Xue family, and she did not miss it." After her anger reached its peak, she laughed, "She just wanted to gather the power of the four major families, Yuan Chun still has the qualifications to be a high-ranking concubine, but I don't want to, this is not what we want at all."

"Mother, calm down." Yaerlin comforted her softly, "Does Yuanchun know about this? What does she think?"

When Jia Shishi revealed this meaning for the first time, Yarlin disagreed.After communicating with Mrs. Wang, he also thought about how to destroy Jia Shishi's plan.But after accepting Liu Xianglian as his apprentice today, he remembered that he hadn't asked Jia Yuanchun about entering the palace.

Perhaps he and Mrs. Wang thought it was not a good thing to enter the palace, but Jia Yuanchun, who was brought up by Jia Shishi, didn't think so.

"I asked Yuan Chun in private, and she only said that she listened to the arrangements of the mansion." Mrs. Wang sneered, "Although Yuan Chun didn't grow up before me, she is my daughter after all. She really wants to Yes, as a mother, can't I see it?"

"Mother, I don't have any other intentions." Ya'erlin looked calm and did not get angry at the accusation in Mrs. Wang's tone, "I am Yuan Chun's elder brother, so I naturally hope that she can live well. But this is not necessarily good. I think she can agree."

The undisguised sincerity in Yaerlin's eyes calmed Mrs. Wang, and she smiled at the apology of her most valued son.Although he didn't say it out loud, how could Yarlin not feel it.

But as soon as today's incident happened, Ya'erlin understood that Jia Yuanchun's entry into the palace was not as simple as he thought at the beginning.Wang Ziteng rejected Jia Shishi's proposal for the sake of Mrs. Wang and him. What about the Shi family and the Xue family who are far away in Jinling?

What's more, Wang Ziteng was obviously dissatisfied with Mrs. Wang and his rejection, otherwise he wouldn't have made today's farce.This is not only disrespecting Jia Shishi, but also embarrassing Mrs. Wang.

"Yuanchun is the only one of the four major families in Jinling who is suitable to participate in the female official election after two years." Ya'erlin tapped his habitual fingers on the table regularly, "Uncle's daughter is still young, and Shijia and Xue Not to mention the family. If you want the four major families to have someone to support you in the harem, Yuan Chun is the most suitable."

Mrs. Wang opened her mouth, and her face became more and more ugly.

"Mother, don't be so anxious." Ya'erlin smiled confidently, "There is a solution. And we should be glad that the women of the right age in two years' time are only the other three families in Jinling who don't have the right age, not the four kings and eight men. No."

Madam Wang raised her head and stared at Yarlin suspiciously.She understands the plan of the four big families, but what does Zhu'er mean by talking about the four princes and eight princes now?

"Mother should know that the so-called four major families of Jinling are nothing in this capital." Ya'erlin smiled lightly, "Except for my uncle who is serving as the governor of the Beijing camp, the two uncles of the historian family are still in the military camp. Not bad, but in fact the four major families have no other power in the court."

"In the historian's side, even though the eldest cousin became the prince, he has been married to the eldest cousin for many years and has no children under his knees. The next two cousins ​​have been staring at him for a long time. What's more, there is our old lady there Just stare, historians don’t have the energy to worry about other things for the time being.”

"Not to mention the Xue family, they have always been in Jinling. Even if you have any ideas, it is not easy to implement them. Although the imperial merchants are famous, they are only a little higher than ordinary merchants. .”

"So, regardless of whether uncle is happy or not, as long as he refuses, it will not be so easy for the old lady to send Yuan Chun into the palace."

"The four kings and eight princes are different. No matter how they decline, the contacts are still there. Especially the four kings, although they are kings with different surnames, they are also on the royal family. Give me some face."
