The husband of the Red Chamber is upright

Chapter 52

Jia Lin should have found Jia Lian to come out to speak, but she was never free.

Qin Shu now has a serious errand, and he will also stand in the Hall of Supreme Harmony with King Zhongrui during the Great Dynasty.Naturally, Jia Lin couldn't fall behind. He always took one step at a time. Although he didn't plan to end next year, he still wanted to gain a good reputation among literati.Ordinarily, some meritorious children would seek out Jia Lin for a drink—although Jia Lin always replaced wine with tea—Jia Lin would not refuse too much.Only in this way, when one really enters the official career in the future, there will be no shortage of clear names in the Qingliu, and the relationship with the aristocratic family can be secretly clinged to. Such a network of contacts can always play a huge role at critical moments.

It is easy to be scolded as a fool on the wall if it is not done well, and it is not good on both sides, but once it is done well, it can really benefit you a lot.

Therefore, the Imperial College took several bath breaks, and Jia Lin spent time outside with different people, ignoring Jia Lian at all.

In a blink of an eye, two months have passed.August is the season of high and refreshing autumn. Every year at this time, there are a lot of banquets in various provinces. Sometimes your family appreciates chrysanthemums and writes poems, sometimes other people taste crabs and drink wine, and sometimes your family invites a good theater troupe to perform. , His family has got a new gadget for everyone to appreciate... In short, the houses are moving around quite frequently.This family posted a post today, and the next day it will be that family. In order to prevent the days from colliding with each other, the mistress of the family also used a lot of inquiring information and clever arrangements.

Princess Qingling, who had been ill for more than half a year, finally reappeared at the banquet.She saw that she had lost a lot of energy, and everyone thought for a moment that when the princess was "seriously ill", Marquis Zhennan, who had been clean for so many years, hired another actor—although he was a man who couldn't lay eggs, but in the end he was also an actor. Slapped the princess in the face.For a while, some people wanted to watch the play, but some also sympathized with the princess.

Jia's mansion has been silent for these days, and at the end of July, it also trembled.The reason they were trembling naturally couldn't be because of Yuan Chun - she is still living in the Seventh Prince's mansion, and since Concubine Liu Gui didn't directly ask for it, it's not easy for the Seventh Prince to send her back.The Seventh Prince arranged for an old nanny to deliberately create an opportunity, pretending to be blocked by Yuan Chun.After that, the nanny was very grateful to Yuan Chun, and intentionally or unintentionally revealed that she also served in front of Concubine Shen (the eldest prince's biological mother) when she was young, so Yuan Chun naturally wanted to make friends.

After coming and going, this nanny treated Yuan Chun like her own daughter and taught her many secret methods.Even, after getting in touch with her deeply, this nanny gradually revealed to Yuan Chun what happened in bed, and taught her how to handle men better.Although Yuan Chun was also taught and brought up by Jia's mother since childhood, how could any daughter of a good family know such things?At first, Yuan Chun was blushing and evasive, and was reluctant to learn, but she was gradually persuaded by the nanny, and she was much more generous.

Jia's house trembled this time, but it was Mother Jia who planned to help Jia Zhu find a marriage in person.Jia Zhu will have a try in the next year. According to the logic of Jia's family's always pushing the high and flattering the low, they should have waited for Jia Zhu to get a good ranking before finding Jia Zhu a daughter-in-law from a high family.However, if one does not find a reason, Jia's mansion is not easy to reappear at the social banquet casually.Secondly, Jia Zhu's marriage has already been established.

It turned out that Li Shouzhong, the sacrificial wine of the Guozijian, was the most congenial with Jia Zheng on weekdays, and he also liked Jia Zhu.So when he was drinking with Jia Zheng that day, he brought up the matter of being the in-laws of his children.

Jialin didn't like this man very much.Even now that Jia Lin, the former concubine, is getting better, Li Shouzhong still can't get used to him. Even though Jia Lin has already left the clan, Li Shouzhong still ranks Jia Zhu ahead of Jia Lin everywhere, saying only that it is the order of the elders and the younger. The difference between common people.

Jia Lin didn't bother to argue with him, lest she end up with a disrespectful judgment.Although Guozijian Jijiu is only from the fourth grade, from a modern point of view, it is the president of the National University, the director of the Examination Center of the Ministry of Education and the director of the Ministry of Higher Education.In view of the fact that education at this time not only taught people knowledge, but also taught people to be loyal to the emperor and patriotic, Guozijian Jijiu must also be the principal of the Chinese Communist Party, the Communist Party, and the school.

Jia Zheng drank happily, so he settled the matter with his mouth at that time.After thinking about it afterwards, Zhu'er is his eldest son, so this marriage must not be careless.For a while, Jia Zheng felt that the family background of the Li family was inferior to the Rongguo Mansion, and for a while, he felt that Li Shouzhong was his old friend. Since he had agreed to this matter, he should not go back on his word... After thinking about it, Jia Zheng went back to Jia seriously. Mother—this bastard still thinks of himself as the Rongguo Mansion. If you really care about it, Li Shouzhong's official position is not big, but he has a lot of connections, at least he is much more useful than Jia Zheng.

People can't stand without faith, Mother Jia is not good at casually refusing her son's face, and she has carefully thought about this matter in her heart. After thinking about it, she felt that it was very feasible.

If Zhu'er has a father-in-law who is a master of Guozijian Jijiu, it will be much more convenient to talk about friendship with people in the officialdom in the future - after all, many officials have studied under Guozijian Jijiu!And these are exactly what the Jia family lacks.Frankly speaking, the indifference received by Mrs. Wang when she visited Jia Zhu's daughter-in-law a few months ago made Jia's mother a little bit more vigilant. disgrace.Even if Zhu'er will be the number one scholar in high school next year, if he marries a daughter of a meritorious family, maybe the Yue family's support will not be as big as the Li family's!You know, how many meritorious families are like Jia's family who can't do their best in officialdom nowadays!

Taking Lin Ruhai as an example, when Lin Ruhai had to marry Jia Min, in Jia's mother's opinion, Jia Min was a low-marriage.But to be honest, the Jia family really didn't help Lin Ruhai's official career—in fact, it still helped. Emperor Xuanzheng didn't trust Lin Ruhai very much from the beginning, but it was for the sake of the old man. It was only later that Lin Ruhai really paid more attention to him, and the role of the Jia Mansion disappeared.And these are things that Mother Jia doesn't know.She thinks that the help is whether she can speak in the officialdom.It was inevitable that when Lin Ruhai was promoted, the Jia family would have to rely on the help of their son-in-law.

Mother Jia calculated all these carefully, and besides, she still had other selfish motives.In her opinion, the status of Zhu'er's daughter-in-law should not be too high, lest after she has been gone for a hundred years, if she is a big-hearted sister-in-law, she will treat Baoyu badly.

——It can be seen from this that although Jia's mother also values ​​Jia Zhu, Baoyu is what she loves the most.When Jia Lin got married that day, Mother Jia called Jia Zhu back to sit with Jia Lin on purpose, but Baoyu was brought to Xinglin Hutong by her, so she didn't let Baoyu sit with her.It's just because Jia's mother thinks that Jia Lin is not so lucky, and she doesn't want to wrong her good Baoyu!

So, after Jia's mansion took his daughter-in-law Mrs. Xing and granddaughter-in-law Wang Xifeng to two banquets, everyone heard that the marriage of Jia's second son-in-law had been settled, and it was the daughter of Li Ji Restaurant.

When the news reached Mrs. Wang, she was still picking up Buddha beans in a secluded Buddhist hall. She finally picked up a dustpan, and with a shake of her hand, the beans spilled all over the ground.

Mrs. Wang looked up at the deserted Buddhist hall.

Jia Zheng is very soft-hearted. In the past, Mrs. Wang flattered her carefully, but now Mrs. Wang has been punished to come to the Buddhist hall to pick up Buddha beans. I don't know if Jia's mother specifically mentioned something, or if that bitch, Aunt Zhao, took advantage of it. What was the provocation? In short, Jia Zheng seems to have completely neglected his wife these days.

Her Pearl is worthy of a princess!Now he is only given the daughter of a fourth-rank petty official family!Mrs. Wang only felt great hatred in her heart. She has been married to Jia's mansion for almost 20 years.Serving her mother-in-law, respecting her husband, raising children, and taking care of the family business, she has always been conscientious and cautious, but now because of a bastard from the clan, Jia Mu and Jia Zheng are embarrassing her like this!Even the marriage of his own son seemed to avoid her!Mrs. Wang clenched her fists tightly, and several of her well-maintained nails were abruptly broken.

Well, it's very good, a daughter-in-law from a small family, not to mention what help such a Yue family can bring to Zhu'er, it will be a hindrance when Zhu'er is an official butcher in the future!Heartbroken and furious, Mrs. Wang became even more silent on the face, and she slowly gathered the broad beans on the ground together.Now, Yuanchun has gone to the palace for those vain glory, and her future is uncertain; Zhuer's marriage is also settled, and she must really welcome a dissatisfied daughter-in-law... When Baoyu grows up, she will never let the mansion... It also delayed Baoyu's major event!

Because Jia Zhu was going to marry a daughter-in-law, Mrs. Wang, a mother-in-law, always had to go out to socialize, and it would not be good to let her "rest".After a few days, Mother Jia showed great mercy and spared Mrs. Wang from worshiping Buddha every day.

But Mrs. Wang seems to be becoming more and more pious. She still spends a lot of time in the Buddhist hall every day, and the gold bracelet on her wrist has been replaced with simple Buddhist beads with a sense of Zen. The more she wears, the more she looks deeper. up.Moreover, since Mrs. Wang came out, she didn't want to leave Wang Xifeng's errand, as if she really didn't care about everything.Even when Aunt Zhao made a scene a few times, Mrs. Wang did not punish her ruthlessly. After a long time, all the people who served said Mrs. Wang was kind. mesa.

On the contrary, Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang have fought in the arena for these years, and said to Wang Xifeng in private: "I don't think she looks like a person who can become a Bodhisattva by chanting Buddha's name... Now looking at her ancient well without waves It looks like I'm panicking."

And these things, Jialin didn't know.Now he has gradually come to the fore, a few poems written on the spot, a few parallel prose written overnight, coupled with timely pushes to fuel the flames, he has even earned him the nickname of Mr. Wen Jin.Jia Lin is not yet old enough to pick up characters. This "Jin" originally means beautiful jade, which not only fits the word "Lin" in his real name, but also praises his character.

Gradually, no one called Jia Lin "Jia Di" or "Brother Lin" anymore. Those who were not familiar with him called him "Mr. Wen Jin", while those who were familiar with him only called him "Brother Wen Jin".

One day, when Jia Lin came back from outside, a distinguished guest came to the mansion.

The author has something to say: Mrs. Wang has evolved!

At this time, there should be no Gregorian calendar, only the lunar calendar, so there should be no wrong words for August and autumn.
