What are these things, Jia Min has also heard Lian'er mention, they are not valuable: most of them are seasonal clothes and the like, mixed with a few concerned text messages, and occasionally there will be purses embroidered by Xing's side and eldest brother's concubine, etc.

――In the case of a stepmother, Jia Min feels that she still has a heart.

It was Mama Li, hearing this, who whispered a little out of shape: "Do you want to return the gift......?"

"Well, how?"

"Miss, the slave is bold...... The slave maid felt that the stepwife, isn't it, have any bad intentions?" Mama Li felt that it seemed quite clueless to say this, so she thought about it and said, "Miss, you know." Uncle left Young Master Lian in Jinling, although it was for Young Master Lian's studies and family affairs, but the old lady has always been very dissatisfied with this.

But you see that stepwife, after giving birth to her sister-in-law, on the one hand, she flattered the old lady and her uncle, and on the other hand, she sent this to that to Young Master Lian...... I heard that not only in the capital, but also in Jinling, there are also people who praise this stepwife...... Before entering the Jia family, the young lady had also heard that she was born in a small family, and after entering the Jia family, she also had a reputation such as being a child. I didn't expect that when I had a son, this style would be completely different...... Miss, isn't this person's mind deep?"

When Jia Min heard Mama Li's words, she was not upset, but said with a smile: "I don't think this is a bad thought." ”

"Miss?"

"Mama, you don't understand this," Jia Min looked at his grandmother and said, "People who are really thoughtful are not what they do now." ”

- Jia Min has never seen this step-sister-in-law, but the other party's reputation is indeed as grandma said, except for the small color, I am afraid that it cannot be compared with her original sister-in-law Zhang in all aspects.

As for whether this Xing family is a thoughtful person, Jia Min is not clear, and it is difficult to assert.

It's just that, according to Mama's statement, it is believed that the Xing family is now taking advantage of Lian'er in the south, and all kinds of small actions to please his brother and mother, so as to plan for the future of his own parents and children...... This Jia Min didn't believe it.

If the Xing family had that heart, when the other party married into the Jia family, how old was Lian'er, and she could be a charitable stepmother at that time!

Now it seems that the other party is clearly bent on having a biological son. But her eldest brother is a little confused, and he is not stupid - it was not until Lian'er was about to get married, that the eldest brother relented and made it clear that Xing's pregnancy was clear.

This has been ignored for more than ten years, and when you have a parent, you will enthusiastically please the original son-in-law?

On the contrary, it is more reassuring to be less enthusiastic and appropriately reasonable.

When Mama Li saw that her young lady didn't say anything, she immediately thought that this was not something she could know. As smart as she was, she planned to change the subject.

Before Mama Li could think about it, she heard Jia Min say, "Mama, don't think too much." Lian'er is now older, and she is in the south, and my sister-in-law can't interfere even if she wants to. Besides, there are so many people watching. ”

"So, what does the uncle and wife think?"

"Mama, you see, these few things for Lian'er also carry the objects embroidered by the eldest brother's concubine. Now there are only three children under the knees of the eldest brother, and they are so far apart from the south and the north...... It's like going to kiss, if you don't take a walk, how can you kiss?"

Hearing what the young lady said, Mama Li understood: This uncle's wife wanted to understand that her own parents and children had no chance of attacking the lord, and she deliberately showed her attitude to Young Master Lian! Thinking about it, she said: "If this is the case, then it is a slave and maid who is too careful...... Miss, don't blame the slave and maid for thinking too much -- this is a matter of the lord's family property, and if you say it, I'm afraid that few people are willing to let it go lightly -- the uncle's wife is so broad-minded that the slave and maid are ashamed. ”

Jia Min smiled and thought in his heart: As the eldest son, it is a sure thing for Lian'er to inherit the Rong Mansion. No matter what the reason is, her sister-in-law can figure it out, so she really doesn't drag the child back.

Thinking of this, Jia Min said:

"I don't believe in anything that I think I'm biological...... As long as I can really care about it and let the brothers kiss each other, I think my sister-in-law has done enough. ”

Mama Li echoed: "Miss is reasonable. Young Master Lian and Young Master Cong are brothers in the end - if they can get along well and support each other in the future, it will also be a good thing. ”

After talking about the step-room of the Jia family's big house, the topic unconsciously turned to the second room.

Jia Min said: "Zhu'er's day has been set, just after the release of the list in the spring of next year - when Zhu'er is big and small, it will be double happiness." ”

Thinking of something, she sighed again, "If you want me to say, if it wasn't my second sister-in-law last time...... Alas, I heard that since then, Zhu'er's body has been a little weak, and she has some minor illnesses and pains every now and then. Bisheng Zhu'er is a diligent person, and picks up books as soon as she is a little better. I heard my husband say that the examination room in Chunyu is the most abrasive, and it is closed for nine days in that kind of place...... I'm really worried. ”

- Jia Min knows that her aunt is far away in Yangzhou, and it is useless to worry about it.

To put it bluntly, she was just afraid that her good second sister-in-law would make some trouble this time.

Mama Li also understood her young lady's thoughts, and she persuaded: "Miss, don't worry too much about it, these things, the two uncles and wives may not understand very well, isn't there still an old lady? ”

mentioned Jia's mother, Jia Min's face was even more melancholy: "Mother is old, and she still has to worry about these children's chores...... After all, it's because we don't fight. ”

Mama Li persuaded again: "Miss, you must not say that." Now you have two sons by your side, and your two uncles are also one and the same...... Didn't the Yuanda girl, who was selected into the palace by the first time, also be favored by the queen's mother and assigned to the four princes as concubines?

Mama Li continued to persuade for a while, and Jia Min's face gradually improved. The latter said: "I hope so." ”

When Jia Yuanchun was mentioned, Jia Min sighed a little: "When I heard that the second sister-in-law actually sent her good daughter into the palace to wait for people, it frightened me......! Now that I heard that Yuan'er had entered the Four Princes' Mansion, this has a future, and my heart is called to be realized.

On his day, Yuan'er was fortunate to give birth to the prince's heir, and with the eldest brother's hard work, Yuan'er will definitely be able to go further. ”

"Miss Yuanda is a great cultivator, presumably Miss will soon hear the good news. Mama Li flattered.

"Well, I'm looking forward to it...... Speaking of good news, the second brother's aunt seems to be about to give birth, right? The second brother is really blessed. Jia Min touched his stomach and whispered, "It's a pity that I haven't moved again." ”

- However, she can have two sons, which is already a blessing from heaven.

Mama Li saw her own young lady like this, and she was also a little helpless. But she suddenly had a flash of inspiration, remembered something, and mysteriously deliberately lowered her voice and said:

"Speaking of which, miss...... Do you still remember, that spirit boy in Jinling, has 'that' Lingtong?"

When she said this, Jia Min also remembered.

-- Speaking of which, the "reincarnated spirit boy" in Jinling, when it was first preached, was just to teach ordinary children to be intelligent, to be proficient in scriptures, and to be proficient in Buddhism.

However, I don't know when it began, and it gradually spread in Jinling City: If a woman goes to see the spirit child, the spirit child will be blessed and will give her a child. It is also the so-called "spirit child sending children" -

Jia Min understood what Grandma meant, gasped, and said in the same low voice: "...... How could there be such a thing? I always felt that it was just a rumor......."

"Miss, Miss, you must not say that!" Mama Li hurriedly interrupted Jia Min's words, as if she was afraid of being heard, "That 'spirit boy sending a child' is indeed a thing! The slave man inquired carefully, and many women admitted that they were blessed by the spirit child......

Mama Li spoke eloquently about the "real case" that her husband inquired about. After speaking, I don't forget to add:

"Of course, not everyone who goes to see the spirit child has this kind of great blessing......"

"So......"

"But if you don't see it, how do you know that there won't be?"

Grandma's words are so reasonable! Jia Min's heart suddenly swayed.

...... Indeed, if you don't go to see her, how do you know if she has this blessing? Although she wants to go to Jinling, it is not too far from Yangzhou, and it is just right to go in the name of caring for Lian'er and visiting the Zhang family to discuss family affairs; I just wonder if my husband will agree to let her go?

Jia Min was a little loose, and when she thought of her husband Lin Ruhai, she immediately remembered something, and hurriedly waved her hand and refused:

"No, Mama, forget about it, don't think about it. ”

Mama Li was puzzled, Zheng Gu asked, but Jia Min asked rhetorically: "What happened in the court before, has Mama forgotten?"

“...... The slave did not forget. Seeing that her own lady mentioned this, Mama Li faintly understood.

-- In other words, people who have lived in the inner house for a long time should not be too aware of what happened in the court. The reason why Jia Min and Mama Li both know about this matter is actually because it is about Lin Ruhai - there are officials who have participated in Lin Ruhai's book to today's saints!

The reason used is to the effect that Lin Ruhai controls the salt government with one hand, "reigns as the king and hegemon" in Yangzhou, and oppresses people unscrupulously with power, but no one dares to put a beak!

If such a big hat is pressed down, if it is solid, it will be bad!
