43.Chapter 43: The Primary Election (I)
The eighth day of the third month of the thirty-third year of Kangxi
Ilgen House
Early in the morning, Yilu Yixiang was ordered in advance by Fulimam, was called to get up early, and was carefully dressed up.
During the primary election, you must wear a blue, uniform flag suit and flowerpot bottom shoes, so it is not easy to make an outstanding impression by dressing up during the primary election.
In fact, the primary election is just a matter of family situation and whether the government stuffs silver into the palace in advance. It's just that in the past few years, Emperor Kangxi likes the beauties of the Han family, so he has relaxed his identity a lot.
As for how you can tell if your family background and whether you have been dotted in advance, you have experienced so many rounds of drafts, and some established unspoken rules have already been formed.
If you have counted the silver in advance, there will be a chief eunuch or a master in the palace who will pass through the words in advance, and when you see this name, you will know which grids to keep and which grids to be stacked.
As for identity, does that need to be said? Even if you don't look at the grid of the xx official clearly written on it, even if you look at the blue flag suit and flowerpot bottom shoes that you wear uniformly, you can see many differences from the subtleties.
For example, the different materials and stitches of the flag outfit, the way of stitching, the cuffs and necklines, and the embroidery of the hem of the hem, etc., can be seen how the family background is.
And the low status is the two things that Yilu Yixiang can't avoid, so he has to seek new ideas in dress and skills.
The long black black hair was cleverly braided into a twisted braid by the maids, and there was no way to have new ideas, and there could not be any ornaments on the head.
can only play some tricks on the head rope, so Yilu Yixiang's two head ropes still cost a large part of the savings in the house to get it.
It is made of fine silk thread strung with sapphires, and it is worth a lot of money at first glance. Brought on the two heads of Yixiang Yilu, it is even more agile and exquisite.
If you are in the crowd, you can notice at a glance that there is quite a bit of a posture of exploring the pioneer for the master first!
After changing his shoes and having breakfast, Yilu took Duo'er to the main courtyard to meet his cheap mother-in-law Tong Jiashi.
Today's Tong Jiashi also got up early in the morning, and there was still a faint trace of blood in his eyes, thinking that he was worried that his daughter hadn't fallen asleep all night.
It's just that as soon as Yi Lu entered, he found that Yi Xiang, the cheap sister-in-law next to him, was excited and nervous.
I didn't notice her at all, nor did I notice the worry that flashed in Tong Jia's eyes, and the faint bloodshot in her mother's eyes, because she was too excited.
It's understandable to think about it, you must know that the ancient daughters of the Qing Dynasty were raised in the constraints of rules and etiquette.
For the girls who are about to participate in the general election, it is a general election, and it is the moment that determines the fate of their lives, can you not be excited?
Whether it can fly on the branches and become a phoenix, or be sent home by a stack of signs, but the real difference between cloud and mud!
It's the same fate-determining moment as whether modern times are marrying a top wealthy family or casually matching a migrant worker as a wife.
Let's not talk about whether you can eat enough, let's just say that the reputation is incomparable, that is a real person who has attained the Tao of the chicken dog to ascend to heaven!
In fact, it should be said that human nature is universal. If you can enjoy wealth and glory, who has nothing to do with rusty heads and go to accompany migrant workers?
You must know that ancient women, but through the belief that they would rather be noble concubines than poor people/wives.
Compared with the two, these ancient women can be screwed more clearly than anyone else. Don't underestimate the wisdom of these ancient women, that's really shrewd.
Otherwise, how could it be, all these women want to desperately give birth to sons, climb up, and ask for positions. Or is it just clinging to the steward's rights?
It's not because they know better than anyone else that men's favors are only temporary. Only sons, positions, and rights are the ones they rely on for life.
You must know that men are tired of you, just change to a woman casually, who remembers what you looked like when you were young?
This is also the sorrow of women in the Qing Dynasty, who made women have an extremely low social status and rely on men to survive?
Yi Lu took care of Tong Jia's family carefully, but today's cheap mother-in-law Tong Jia's family is very wrong.
It's been almost half an hour since she came in, and she didn't seem to have noticed her yet, but she just stared at her cheap sister Yi Xiang with a pair of worried muzi, thinking about it, it was also a mother's worry.
To say that in the past two years, Tong Jiashi did not deliberately embarrass her, but because the time of the draft is approaching, he has become closer to her.
But the more this happened, the more it made Yilu's heart tremble a little, and if you want to ask why, do you need to say it?
This cheap lady is a fierce tigress!
In the past few years, I don't know why this cheap aunt didn't suppress her and the cheap aunt so much?
On the contrary, in the past few years, in the house, he has become more and more generous and kind.
But no one knows when this tigress will wake up and show her claws again?
But no matter how much she shows her claws, she can't suppress her, the only thing she is afraid of is that she is afraid that she will suppress the cheap aunt, then she will really have to think about it.
However, if she can enter the prince's backyard, it will be a great creation for Irgen Mansion, and I think that the cheap father will not watch his aunt being bullied.
As long as she can be favored in the Fourth Master's Mansion and gain a firm foothold, her aunt will not have a bad time.
It's just that it's hard to see each other after all.
For Yilu, who has enjoyed a strong maternal love for several years, he is quite reluctant to give up. It's just that it's still a small life, you must know that in the past two years, her spirit has become weaker and weaker.
Originally, when she first came, there were still 15, but I didn't expect that it was only 10 now, so Yilu was even more urgent, she had to find the dragon qi quickly, otherwise her soul in the purple mansion would not be able to hold on, if it dissipated, it would be over.
And in the past month, Yilu feels that her head is throbbing from time to time, like a needle prick, and it is about to burst at any time, so she can't care about the favor of her cheap aunt.
Yes, now that my life is almost gone, let's hurry up and find the fourth master to cultivate it!
After thinking about it, Yilu was careful, looked at Tong Jiashi on the top, and found that Tong Jiashi was still reluctant to give her a look, but in the end, time could not be delayed.
So Yilu hurriedly came back to his senses, squatted down, spoke out politely, and said to Tong Jia's family: "Yilu asks for his mother!" ”
When Tong Jiashi heard the voice, he suddenly came back to his senses from worrying about his daughter.
Looking at Yi Lu, who had already entered the main courtyard at some point, and had become more and more iconic in the past two years, Tong Jia's heart was full of hatred and nervousness.
With such a moving face, I am afraid that Xiang'er's light will be completely covered by her at that time. Tong Jia's eyes darkened.
For Jane's slut's daughter, Tong Jia's really wanted to immediately ruin the beautiful and delicate face in front of him at this moment.
It's just that she was warned by her mother-in-law that if she ruined Yilu's draft, she couldn't afford her mother-in-law's accountability when the time came.
Don't look at the old lady who has stopped in the past few years, but in the end, the aftermath of previous years is still there, and Tong Jiashi does not dare to blatantly oppose the old lady.
Besides, if she falls, the future of her two children and Tai and Xiang'er will also be ruined.
Therefore, in the past two years, she has become more and more careful, and she must not let the old lady catch her fault again, otherwise she will really have to affect her two children at that time.
When Tong Jiashi thought of this, the smile on his face became more and more kind. Busy to the kneeling Yilu said:
"Get up, since you're here, let's go and say hello to your Mamu!"
Even if Tong Jiashi was angry in his heart, he didn't dare to be angry with Yilu, so he restrained his thoughts, and helped Yilu up in a very kind pit, and then took Yilu and Yixiang to Wutong Garden to ask for peace.
