is also dependent on the branch of the family to live, the Jia family has eight houses of people in Kyoto to follow, such as Jia Yun, Jia Qin, Jia Yan and others in the previous life are attached to the Rongning Erfu, and they take over the work of the two mansions to earn some silver, although the clansmen are more like the next people. In addition, the other clansmen of the Jia family are all in the old house in Jinling, they have land and property, and no matter how poor they are, they still have ancestral property, and they can still live.

And what about the Shi family? In Kyoto alone, there are as many as 20 clansmen who are attached to the two prefectures, and there are even more old family members in Jinling, and even the popular talisman in Jinling says that "Afang Palace is 300 miles, and it can't accommodate a single history of Jinling." The only two brothers who are capable of the historians are the two brothers, the Marquis of Baoling and the Marquis of Zhongjing, Shi Ding, but the two of them are not good at running a business and running a family, so they are getting poorer and poorer.

However, although the Shi family more than ten years ago was not as wealthy as the Jia family and the Xue family, it was not so difficult, which seems to have started after the boss of the Shi family left.

Mrs. Shi was actually not the eldest lady from the beginning, she was the wife of Shi Nai, the marquis of Baoling, the original second lady, the eldest lady was Shi Xiangyun's mother, Shi Xiangyun was the eldest daughter of the Shi family, but her parents left one after another when she was still in infancy, and then these two sons inherited the title of their ancestors, and the third son was suddenly given the title of Marquis of Zhongjing.

I don't know what it has to do here, but it's a pity that compared with the Rongguo Mansion that they have befriended everywhere, their Ning Mansion has been estranged a lot from these old relatives, and so many years have passed, who knows what happened back then?

Even Jia's mother seems to feel the difficulties of her mother's family, and she is a little sad.

As soon as they entered the tent, everyone had different thoughts, and the atmosphere was suddenly silent a lot, Mrs. Shi saw a lot of such people, and she didn't care, so she generously invited you to sit down, and let people serve tea, said,

"Old lady, we can't compare to your Jia family here, and we don't have any good tea, but it's common on the market, this water is the rain of the old year, can you still taste it?"

Jia Mu took a sip, in terms of sweetness and mellowness, it was just average, but she was used to drinking good tea, and when she suddenly drank the tea of this historian, she felt that there was a musty smell that could not be eliminated.

But he put it down after dipping his lips, patted her hand, and said,

"Even if it is difficult at home, it is good to tell me, although the Jia family is not rich, for the sake of many years of old relatives, they can also help one or two. ”

Mrs. Shi didn't care, and let go of a smile, "Old lady, although we are poor, we are all just living on the good fortune of our masters, and we are at ease and steadfast." ”

Seeing what Jia Mu was going to say, she said,

"Old lady, don't worry, the family is not particularly difficult, but there are many children in the family, and in another year or two, we will have to start a family one by one, our lord said, we have a hard time as elders, but we have to leave something for the children, so that they can relax, that is, the dowry of the eldest girl We have prepared it one by one!"

The eldest girl is talking about Shi Xiangyun, speaking of her dowry Shi Xiangyun blushed and hid behind Jia's mother, although she was shy, she was relieved in her heart, she also knew that she had been in a difficult situation at home, she was getting older day by day, did she have a father and mother to take care of her, and she was really worried that her dowry would be fooled, since the second aunt said this in front of the old lady, I don't think it would be bad.

Speaking of the children, Jia Baoyu looked around and said busily,

"I heard that there are a lot of sisters and sisters from the Shi family, why don't you see anyone?"

Baoyu has a kind of infatuation by nature, the family property and money that others care about have nothing to do with him at all, there is no abnormality in the tent, as if there is no difference at all, Mrs. Shi has been in charge of the family for many years, who really doesn't care, or pretend, and her eyesight is there, Jia Baoyu is innocent, and Mrs. Shi is also happy.

"This is Baoyu, right?" Mrs. Shi pulled Baoyu to look closer, and praised and praised,

"It's really like a jewel, old lady, you have hidden such a treasure, and now you can be regarded as letting me see it. ”

Baoyu has always been the heart of Jia's mother, and Mrs. Shi's praise can be regarded as speaking to his heart.

"Baoyu, I haven't seen your cousin yet. Jia Mule said.

Baoyu stepped forward and saluted, "I've seen my cousin." ”

At this time, Jia Mu remembered that there were other people, and said with her forehead propped up, "It's really old, and the people who followed behind their buttocks have forgotten about it. ”

He pointed at Jia Jing and said, "This is my nephew and the patriarch of the Jia family, he didn't worry about me coming, so he came with me." ”

Jia Jing arched his hand, "I've seen Mrs., I'm sorry." ”

The eldest lady and the second lady hurriedly got up and returned the salute, "Brother Shi is polite." ”

"I wonder where the two brothers are?"

The eldest lady replied, "The two of them are either accompanying the saint or on duty, and we don't know what they are busy with, but we are neglecting the world's brother, and we will let him apologize another day." ”

Everyone was in awe when they heard this, this Jia family is only one woman by the saint's side, there are two men in this Shi family, not to mention that the Xue family wants to elect their Jia girl into the palace through a small election, thinking like this, even Xue Pan, who has been sitting unsteadily, has a lot of rules.

Now that he has seen it, there is no man in the Shi family's family, and Jia Jing is not good to stay long, so he said goodbye and went out.

Then Mother Jia introduced Aunt Xue again, "This is the contemporary housewife of the Xue family, because she and my second daughter-in-law are sisters, so the sisters call her Aunt Xue." ”

Mrs. Shi smiled, "Old lady, this is not yours, even if the Jia family and the Xue family are in-laws, we are not allowed to be not, we are also in-laws!"

Aunt Xue smiled and said yes, "Exactly." ”

Seeing that Mother Jia was still a little confused, Aunt Xue explained, "Old lady, you forgot, my mother-in-law is a girl from the Shi family, and she is also your old sister-in-law!"

Jia Mu suddenly laughed, "Exactly, exactly, it's really that the older people get, the more obscure they become, and they even forgot this, my sister went early, and I actually forgot, it's really a sin." ”

After everyone laughed, Aunt Xue and Mrs. Shi met with Mrs. Shi, and then Aunt Xue pulled her two children and said,

"These are my two unsuccessful children, the eldest is the elder brother, called Xue Pan, and the younger is the younger sister, whose maiden name is Xue Baochai, come, I have seen Mrs. Shi Da and the second wife. ”

As soon as Xue Pan came in, her eyes were full of disdain and disdain, Mrs. Shi didn't like it, and she was slightly angry with Aunt Xue and Baochai, not much enthusiasm, and said politely, "You don't have to be so polite, just call me aunt." ”

After that, Jia's mother took the three sisters and said, "This is my three granddaughters, this is the second granddaughter, called Yingchun, it is the old family's, this is the third granddaughter of the second family, called Tanchun, this is the girl of Jia Jing's family just now, named Jia Lu." ”

The three girls got up together to say goodbye, if the men of the Jia family are not successful, but the daughter of the Jia family is also extremely outstanding in Kyoto.
