Chapter 003 Clean Up
Zhang's family is noble and has a strict family style. Although Zhang's father, Zhang Jiuxin, was the Taifu when the current emperor was the crown prince, and was appointed as the chief assistant, his old wife Yu was the only one in the family, and he never had any concubines. Zhang Shoufu's three sons and one daughter are all descendants of the Yu family.
Zhang is the old daughter of Zhang Jiuxin and Yu. The youngest brother is 15 years older than her. Not only has she been the jewel in the palm of her parents since she was a child, but several brothers and sisters-in-law also love her as a daughter, so she is even in talent and bearing. It's Shangjia, but she has limited understanding of the private matters in the inner house. Since Mrs. Shi is from a wealthy family, the most she can do is to treat her coldly and not let her be the housekeeper.
Jia Amnesty grew up at the hands of his grandmother Mrs. Xu since he was a child. The title of Duke of the Ningrong Second Mansion came from the fact that Jia Yan and Jia Yuan brothers followed the Tai and Zu emperors to raise troops, and it was the contribution of the dragon.Before that, the Jia family was just a local squire's family in Jinling. When Mrs. Xu married Jia Yuan, she was only the daughter of a landlord's family.Mrs. Mrs. Xu was born in an ordinary family and her knowledge was limited. Even though her wife followed her husband and became a super-class Mrs. Duke, her essence has not changed.
Jia Yuan is considered a kind man, he never divorced his wife after his fortune, and he treated Madam Xu the same as before, but the eldest son, Jia Daishan, was with him since he was a child, and he did not dare to entrust Madam Xu to raise him. So as not to raise a son who is useless.
When the Tai and Zu emperors established their capital in Gyeonggi, the land of the Situ family only included Guanzhong, Longnan and other places. He went to the battlefield with his father. Later, Jia Yuan became seriously ill and returned to Beijing to recuperate. He was in charge of the army alone and made great military exploits. Therefore, when Jia Yuan died of illness, Emperor Taizong asked him to take the title without demotion.
Due to Mrs. Xu's lack of housekeeping ability, the Rongguo Mansion was in a mess in the first few years when the mansion was opened. Jia Yuan wanted to marry his son a scholarly woman back, which would be good for raising children and grandchildren. Not upstarts like them, Jia Yuan had no choice but to marry Jia Daishan to the daughter of the Baolinghou historian.Like the Jia family, the Shi family started out with military exploits and has no background, but the young lady of the Shi family is also a nun who came out of the palace and taught for ten years. Compared with Mrs. Xu, she is much better.
Mrs. Mrs. Xu is very self-aware, she knows that she can't manage the house well, so she quickly handed over the housekeeping power to her daughter-in-law. She made a point when Mrs. Shi gave birth to Jia Amnesty. Taking care of her grandson is also to help her relieve a little burden.
At that time, Jia Daishan was still fighting outside, and Mrs. Shi was naturally reluctant to have her newborn child taken away by her mother-in-law, but she had no reason to refute, so she had to admit it.At first, Jia Yuan was worried that his old wife would teach his grandson badly, but after thinking about it, he could help raise his grandson together when he was free, so he didn't object.If Jia Yuan could live a few more years, Jia Amnesty would probably be much more promising than now, but unfortunately, just after he turned one year old, Jia Yuan relapsed from his old injury.Since then, Mrs. Xu has been obedient and doting to her eldest grandson.
When Jia Daishan pacified Jiangnan and returned home, he found that the eldest son, who was already in his teens, had been raised by his mother for a long time. At that time, it was the icing on the cake, and nothing could be done, so it could only be said that he was playing with things and lost his ambition. Jia Daishan had the heart to discipline his son, but Mrs. Xu Tai was protecting her, saying that her eldest grandson was pure-hearted, filial to his parents, and friendly to his younger siblings. There was nothing wrong with it. Besides, he will inherit the title in the future, so there is nothing to worry about.
Jia Daishan thinks about it too. The two generations of the Jia family have outstanding martial arts and hold heavy soldiers. If Jia Amnesty is more capable, will it arouse the emperor's speculation, it is better to be safe and stable, and be a successful person.On the other hand, the second son, Jia Zheng, loved reading at a very young age. Obviously Mrs. Shi taught him well, but Jia Zheng was the second son. If he wanted to become an official, he could only follow the imperial examination. After Jia Daishan figured it out, he focused on On top of Jia Zheng.
Seeing this, Mrs. Shi was overjoyed, thinking that her husband, like herself, had a special preference for the youngest son, but what Jia Daishan thought was that Jia Amnesty had everything he should have, and if he married a daughter-in-law with a good family background, he would be fine for the rest of his life. what.Jia Zheng was different, the road to the imperial examination was not easy, he was born as a military general, and he had no connections, and without his father's help, Jia Zheng might not be able to find a way even if his head was broken.
When Jia Amnesty was 16 years old, Jia Daishan told him about his relatives. The other party was Zhang Shoufu's only daughter. After hearing this, Mrs. Xu Tai, who was bedridden, was so happy that her condition improved a little.Before Jia Yuan died, Jia Yuan told her that the daughter-in-law came from an honorable family, and when she arrived at the grand-daughter-in-law, she must marry a daughter from a scholar's family. It's a pity that all the wives she associates with are the wives of Xungui's family, and they don't have anything to do with scholars. She was worried at first, but she didn't want her son to get things done.
For this marriage, Jia Daishan is also very grateful. If it weren't for the time of war, he had saved the Zhang family's life. It would be impossible to marry his daughter. After all, his eldest son was not very up-to-date. What comes out is the origin and appearance.
Who is Zhang Jiuxin? He is the emperor's teacher and the chief assistant. Mrs. Shi was very upset when she heard that the incompetent eldest son could marry the daughter of his family. Why didn't Jia Daishan keep such a good marriage for Jia Zheng? With such patronage from the Yue family, He Chou Jia Zheng has no future.
Mrs. Shi really couldn't figure it out, so she asked Jia Daishan, who was speechless.This Shi family usually looks very shrewd, why would he say something stupid at a critical moment? Their family is kind to the Zhang family, but Jia Zheng is the second son, so it's fine if he can't be a prince. The key is that he is already 12 years old this year. , have not been admitted to the scholar, the Zhang family loves their daughter, half of the reason for agreeing to this marriage is to repay the favor, and the other half is not because of Jia Amnesty's status as the eldest son, the daughter is different from the son, and the future depends on her husband and son.
When a scholarly family marries their daughter, what they hope most is a young Jinshi, but it is rare to find, young Juren and young scholar, you have to look at it, there are many people who can't pass the exam in a lifetime, Jia Amnesty is degraded, at least a The first-class general can also see it.
It's not that Jia Daishan didn't care about Jia Zheng's marriage, it's just that he had a long-term thinking, and wanted to wait for Jia Zheng to become famous before showing him a favor.Moreover, Jia Daishan also had an idea that was hard to say, that was the Zhang family. His family had many in-laws and a wide network of contacts among civil servants. The family background is not as good as Zhang's, and it won't be too far behind.
Jia Daishan's idea was actually very good, but Mrs. Shi didn't cooperate and kept dragging her back, causing him to completely destroy it.The Zhang family had only one daughter of the Zhang family. It was originally said that they would stay for two more years, at least until they were 16 years old before marrying, but Mrs. Xu was seriously ill and was about to die. , Said that Jia Amnesty was raised by Mrs. Xu, who loved him since he was a child, and could not see his granddaughter-in-law coming in. Mrs. Xu died with regret, and Zhang's heart softened, so they asked Zhang to marry him as soon as he was old.
One month after Jia She got married, Madam Xu passed away with a smile on her face. Jia She had the best relationship with her grandmother in her life. She gave birth, and she was young, so she didn't even know that she was pregnant.
Mrs. Shi comforted her son and daughter-in-law, saying that Mrs. Tai was reluctant to part with her great-grandson, so Fang took him away, but thought in her heart, it was great that Jia Amnesty and Mrs. Zhang could not share the same bed during the 27-month filial piety period. It's time for Zheng's daughter-in-law to come in, and it's not sure who the grandson will end up with.
Sure enough, less than half a year after Mrs. Xu's filial piety period, Mrs. Shi married the second lady of the county uncle Wang's family who was ruled by Du Taiwei for Jia Zheng.Just at this time, Mrs. Zhang became pregnant again. In order to make trouble for the eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Shi specially pointed out two beautiful maids to Jia She.
Unexpectedly, Jia pardoned the person who took her in front, and turned around to show courtesy to Mrs. Zhang.Jia She is not an idiot, although he is filial, he also knows that his mother prefers his second brother, besides, Mrs Zhang is beautiful, good-natured, and of a prominent family background, he couldn't figure out how much he would neglect her because of the two maids.
From Zhang's pregnancy to the birth of their eldest brother, Jia Amnesty and Zhang believed that they had done a good job of protecting themselves. Unexpectedly, when the incident with Chen's mother and Qingzhu happened, they realized that what they had done was not enough. If I didn't wake up, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Jia Amnesty doesn't have the talent to take care of the family. Zhang's words, let her be the housekeeper in an upright manner, she must be able to handle it, but she is not good at playing dirty tricks with others. If it is other things, they will bear it. It is related to the precious son. For personal safety, Jia Amnesty and Mrs. Zhang couldn't help it.
Three days after carrying her son into the room, Mrs. Zhang took Hu Jia back to her mother's house, and then brought back two nanny with unkind faces.
Mrs. Shi was very dissatisfied with this. The daughter-in-law brought someone from her natal family to order her around. Whether she looked down on her husband's family or something, Zhang came to plead guilty before she could complain.Mrs. Zhang said that when she went home to visit her parents, she found that she had invited two nuns from the palace to teach her eldest niece. Not being a nurturing mother, because she is not good at managing affairs, she can't even manage the affairs of her own yard, and she has to make Mrs. Shi go out to help, which is really unfilial.
Mrs. Yu reprimanded her daughter, saying that she didn't work hard before, and then lent her two nuns to teach her, and they would return home after two years, and then taught Zhang's second niece, Mrs. Zhang's posture was too low, and it was difficult for Mrs. Shi to say anything.
Nanny Yan and Nanny Hu followed Mrs. Zhang back to the yard. The first time Hu Jia saw them, there were two barrages of disgust. Mrs. Zhang disliked that she was not good at housekeeping, and she didn't even know that there were nails buried in the yard. They were suddenly filled with admiration, and they were indeed not ordinary people.
In fact, after living with Mrs. Zhang for a few days, Hu Jia has already seen whether the people around her are loyal or not. Mrs. Zhang's personal servant girl and the woman in charge in the yard are all married by her, and their loyalty is quite high. But other than that, it's hard to say about the little maids and low-class women in their yard. It can't be said that they all have two minds.
As for the people around Jia She, Hu Jia couldn't see them, so he didn't know, but Mrs. Zhang brought a companion, and the courtyard could be infiltrated by people. Jia She lived in Jia's house since he was a child, and it was probably worse. Hu Jia wanted to remind him, but unfortunately he couldn't make a sound, so he had to give up.
After a few days of observation, Hu Jia has already figured out the law of the special function, which is refreshed once a day, and it will be reset at that time, and it cannot be accumulated.
But what surprised him was that he came and went to see these people every day, and he could see their thoughts from time to time, so he could understand each person's loyalty and treachery. After only half a day, Nurse Yan and Nurse Hu assisted Mrs. Zhang carried out a major clean-up, and once he caught one, there was nothing wrong.
What made Hu Jia even more amazed was that Sister Yan did not directly send out those who were not loyal enough, but reassigned the work of each person, performed their duties, supervised each other, and strictly enforced the management system.In this way, even if someone has an idea, there is no chance to do anything.
