The news of Lin Ruhai's promotion to the second-rank senior member naturally can't be hidden from Mrs. Jia. No one will hide such a happy event from her. When Jia Yu returned home to inform Daiyu that night, when Mrs. Xing went to greet Mrs. Jia, she pretended to say it unintentionally.

Mrs. Jia was naturally very happy, and even used half a bowl more for dinner. Mrs. Wang had a calculation in her heart when she heard that Lin Ruhai was rising, but unfortunately, there were no women of the right age in the Jia and Wang families, and they could marry into the Lin Mansion, otherwise, I am afraid that they would have a lot of waves.

There is no school-age girl to marry into the Lin Mansion, but Mrs. Jia is full of joy and counts the girl of the Lin Mansion, her own granddaughter - Daiyu, and Xu to her most valued grandson - Jia Baoyu. For this reason, after Mrs. Jia sent the maids and servants, she summoned Jia Zheng and his wife that night.

Mrs. Wang, who had just returned from Mrs. Jia's courtyard, saw Amber and said, "The old lady asks the old lady to go with her." I had a bad feeling in my heart, but I couldn't help Jia Zheng because he had already hurried away after getting the news. I had to get up and go to Mrs. Jia's yard again.

After sending someone to call Jia Zheng and his wife, Mrs. Jia sat on the bed of the rosewood carved arhat, holding a cup of tea cup that was about to cool in her hand, and unconsciously brushing the tea foam. It wasn't until Jia Zheng arrived outside that Mrs. Jia came back to her senses and put down the tea cup in her hand.

After Jia Zheng saluted, he sat down on the left hand side of Mrs. Jia, and Mrs. Wang hurried in a short time. sat next to Jia Zheng next to him.

After the maids finished serving tea, Mother Jia sent everyone out, and only Mrs. Jia and Jia Zheng and his wife were left in the house.

Mrs. Jia pondered for a while and asked Jia Zheng, "Do you know the news that your brother-in-law Lin Ruhai is about to go to Beijing?" ”

Listening to Jia's mother's inquiry, Jia Zhengsui didn't understand what Mrs. Jia meant, but she still immediately got up and replied: "My son has heard that he said that he will go to Beijing and be promoted to the bachelor of Hanlin Academy after the year." ”

Seeing that Jia Zheng already knew, Mrs. Jia nodded and sighed: "Min'er's life is too early, otherwise we should be reunited in the next year." Speaking of this, Mrs. Jia raised her hand and wiped the corners of her eyes, Jia Zheng didn't know how to be relieved, so she had to say: "The old lady is very right, fortunately, my sister has blood and bones to accompany the old lady." ”

Originally, Jia Zheng's sentence "What the old lady said is extreme" choked Jia's mother enough, but who knew that Jia Zheng mentioned Daiyu in the next sentence, so that Mrs. Jia automatically ignored her dislike of the previous sentence.

Mrs. Jia said with a smile: "Yes, fortunately, Yu'er is still here, so we can maintain the connection between the two families." I thought that Baoyu had also reached the age of kissing, what are your plans? Speaking of which, Mrs. Jia picked up the newly changed hot tea next to her and took a sip gently.

Mrs. Jia's words Jia Zheng still couldn't react, why did he just talk about Lin Ruhai's entry into Beijing, and now he talked about Baoyu's marriage? Although Jia Zheng didn't understand it very well, Mrs. Wang could hear it clearly, but she just wanted Jia Min's daughter to marry her son!

Mrs. Wang clenched the silk in her hand, lowered her head to hide the expression on her face, and was about to open her mouth to refute, but Mrs. Jia had already put down the teacup and continued: "After the New Year, Yu'er is already eleven, although it is a little early, it is also the age that can be said to be pro. After speaking, Mrs. Jia stared at Jia Zheng.

Jia Zheng frowned and thought about Mrs. Jia's series of words tonight, and said with some uncertainty: "What does the old lady mean......?" Mrs. Jia glanced at Jia Zheng angrily and said, "I see that you are good relatives, only in the end you are the parents, you have to say it." ”

Jia Zheng only realized what Mrs. Jia meant. If you want to talk about marrying the Lin family, Jia Zheng is 10,000 willing in his heart, not to mention anything else, just the fact that Lin Ruhai is about to become the head of the Hanlin Academy makes Jia Zheng feel very good. Not to mention that Jia Zheng admired Lin Ruhai's talent in the past.

At this time, listening to Mrs. Jia's mention, Jia Zheng was full of joy and was about to agree, but Mrs. Wang interjected faintly: "If you want to say that Lin Yatou is good anywhere, but Mrs. Gu went early, this girl is a little thinner, and her body is also thinner." After speaking, Mrs. Wang pretended not to care, and also learned from Mother Jia to pick up the tea cup at hand.

After listening to Mrs. Wang's words, Jia Zheng paused, and Mrs. Jia's face was not very good-looking. Jia Zheng looked at Mrs. Wang, then at Jia's mother, and couldn't help but muttered for a moment: "I have to ask my sister-in-law about this matter, why don't you wait for my sister-in-law to come back to explore the situation?" ”

Mrs. Jia didn't expect her favorite son to say this, but she didn't refute her intentions in the end, and this matter really needs to be done by a prophet Lin Ruhai, so she nodded and said, "It should be so." After speaking, he didn't want to hear any more opinions from Mrs. Wang, so he sent him away: "It's late, you can go back too." ”

After speaking, Mrs. Jia stopped talking, Jia Zheng thought about it and got up to salute and leave, and Mrs. Wang naturally followed Jia Zheng to retreat.

Back at Rongxi Hall, before Jia Zheng could speak, Mrs. Wang preemptively said: "I'm not saying that Lin Ya is not good, it's just that she is so small, where is she like everyone's housewife?" Besides, the widow and the eldest daughter do not take it, and there is no religious precept. It's an old saying! Even if she is now raised with the old lady, that girl is going out of the house day by day. ”

As soon as the words were said here, Jia Zheng turned his eyes coldly, and Mrs. Wang's heart trembled and hurriedly explained: "I don't mean anything else, it's just that the girl's body, the master didn't see it, and the thin wind can blow it away......"

Speaking of which, seeing that Jia Zheng had lifted the curtain and walked out, Mrs. Wang only felt a bad breath blocked in her heart, turned around and waved a set of Junyao tea sets on the round table to the ground and smashed a powder, Jia Zheng heard the sound from the house, and his footsteps were only slightly paused, so he accelerated the pace of leaving.

Mrs. Wang dropped the tea set, looking at the fragments on the ground and distressed, usually if she dropped a cup and saucer, it would look worthless, but this set of tea sets is a good thing......

Hearing the sound, Caiyun hurriedly entered the house, looked at the fragments on the ground, and glanced at Mrs. Wang carefully. Seeing Mrs. Wang supporting the table with one hand and stroking her chest with the other, she hurriedly stepped forward to support Mrs. Wang and said, "What's wrong with Mrs. Wang?" As he spoke, he shouted outward, "Call the doctor!" ”

Mrs. Wang was about to reprimand her for babbling, but after thinking about it, she pressed it down again, and said in her heart: It's not bad to be sick, and the province can still get angry in the old thing's house. In this way, Mrs. Wang softened according to the strength of Caiyun.

Caiyun shouted while helping Mrs. Wang to lie down on the kang. In this way, when Jia Zheng came in again, he saw that Mrs. Wang was leaning on the pillow in a depressed spirit, and she couldn't help but think that maybe she slammed the door before, which really made her angry, and she felt guilty in her heart.

He also ordered someone to take his post and invite the imperial doctor, and the imperial doctor carefully checked the pulse and said: "The old man does not need to be suspenseful, the wife is angry and attacking, and the old man opens a prescription to calm the nerves, and it will be fine if you eat it for three days." The words of the imperial doctor faintly confirmed Jia Zheng's previous speculation.

After sending the imperial doctor away, Jia Zheng sat on the edge of Mrs. Wang's bed rarely, thought about it and said gently: "I know that Mrs. loves Baoyu, but the old lady's arrangement may not be unreasonable, Lin Ruhai is about to take charge of the Hanlin Academy, and Yu Baoyu will also be a big help in the future." ”

Listening to Jia Zheng talking to herself so gently, Mrs. Wang didn't care about what Jia Zheng said, she just listened blindly. When Jia Zheng finished speaking, Mrs. Wang lowered her head, and after a long time, she said: "Zhu'er listened to you at the beginning, Baoyu's marriage, the master has to let me choose a satisfactory one." ”

On the second day, Aunt Xue and Baochai heard that Mrs. Wang was sick, so they rushed over early in the morning after breakfast, and saw that Mrs. Wang was still leaning on the head of the bed, so they were relieved, and the mother and wife were talking and laughing beside Mrs. Wang's bedside. Aunt Xue and Baochai naturally blindly persuaded Mrs. Wang to be relieved.

And when Mrs. Wang talked about last night's incident, Aunt Xue's face immediately changed. Turning his head to look at the silent Baochai beside him, he swallowed the words on his lips.

Aunt Xue's expression, Mrs. Wang naturally saw it in her eyes, so she smiled and comforted: "Sister, don't worry, I told my lord that Baoyu's marriage must be to pick one that I am satisfied with, and I will look at it," Speaking of this, Mrs. Wang glanced at Baochai vaguely before continuing: "Okay, no one else can compare." ”

With Mrs. Wang's assurance, Aunt Xue laughed with Mrs. Wang for a while before coming out of Mrs. Wang's room with a happy face. When he returned to Lixiangyuan, he said vigorously: "My son is blessed and creative in the end." As he spoke, he looked Baochai up and down, and Baochai stomped his feet and hid in the house.

Aunt Xue is happy here, and Jia Lian is also very happy over there. After being happy all morning, Yun Baozhou came up and asked, "Brother Wencang, what are you happy about?" Don't say good things, big guys, happy? Isn't it my sister-in-law'......? As he spoke, he squeezed his eyebrows at Jia Lian for a while.

Jia Lian patted him angrily and said, "Okay, you kid, what are you talking about?" Speaking of this, Jia Lian paused and said with a smile: "However, there is really a good thing, I went back to school, and my brother was treated!" After speaking, he didn't care what Yun Baozhou's expression was, and left with a smile.

In the evening, Jia Lian naturally wanted to fulfill his promise to invite Yunbaozhou to have a good drink, but Jia Lian's amount of wine was really not good. When I went back, it was Long'er and Xing'er who went back.

As soon as Wang Xifeng saw Jia Lian coming back drunk like this, he asked Ping'er to fetch water for Jia Lian to wash, and at the same time instructed An'er to cook the sobering soup, but when there were only two people left in the house, Wang Xifeng immediately changed his face, took two steps forward, grabbed Jia Lian's ears and smiled: "How did you promise me to come last time?" How come it's only been a few days, and it's all gone? ”

Being pinched by Wang Xifeng, Jia Lian was also in pain, and hurriedly said: "Grandma let go, grandma let go, this ear is about to fall off!" Seeing that Wang Xifeng not only did not let go, but increased his strength, Jia Lian explained: "I didn't have to do it, I really didn't mean to." ”

Jia Lian's words made Wang Xifeng angry, not only did he not let go, but he used two hands, and said coldly: "Ye explained to me, why is it a last resort?" Is it the shameless one who pulled you to pour it? Or did it hook your soul? ”

Jia Lian saw that Wang Xifeng was getting more and more unpresentable, and after thinking about it for a while, the maid came back and looked ugly, so he casually said, "Isn't this here to welcome the girl?" These words made Wang Xifeng stunned, and he couldn't help but let go, Jia Lian hurriedly took two steps back, not wanting Wang Xifeng to stop chasing after him, but asked very suspiciously: "Tell me, why did the master drink like this in order to welcome his sister?"
