Xia Xiaodong shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "If you say it more seriously and see it in another direction, it is natural that someone is harboring evil intentions, and their hearts can be punished." There are many unclear things about this matter, and many potential conspiracies can be deduced by any kind of appearance. ”

Ning Junwu nodded: "For example, Grandma Jia's child is quite strange. ”

Who is the father?

"When Grandma Jia was young...... Xia Xiaodong raised his eyebrows slightly, blinked his big eyes, and showed a cunning look: "Are you good-looking?" ”

This, this, isn't it difficult for a strong man? Ning Junwu flattened his mouth: "I was young at that time, so I didn't have an impression. Since I can remember, it seems that Grandma Jia has always been meticulous. ”

If a person is always dressed in smooth clothes, his hair is never messy, he almost never laughs, and his speech is not funny, then there is no way to connect with ideas such as whether he looks good or not, and even the concept of gender will be blurred.

"For another example, Ah Hu's letter said that Chaoxia's younger brother is the eldest follower of Twenty-eight." Xia Xiaodong said thoughtfully: "Do you know that Chaoxia has a younger brother? ”

Ning Junwu nodded, and shook his head again: "I know that she has two sisters above her and two younger brothers below. But I don't know that these two younger brothers, one of them is actually on an errand in the outer courtyard, and the other is sent over by Grandma Jia to raise. I thought they were just farming at home. ”

"Well," Xia Xiaodong nodded and said, "They were young when they entered the mansion, if Grandma Jia confessed not to reveal the relationship, they would be able to hide it." It's just that why you want to hide the relationship between sister and brother is a little weird. ”

This Ning Junwu knew about it and explained it to Xia Xiaodong.

Why is it that children are so important? Without him, you know the roots.

The maid is paired with a small servant, and both of them are slaves. When they give birth to children, they are all little slaves. Eating the meals of the big kitchen in the house, wearing the clothes of the four seasons made in the house, living in the courtyard of the house rewarded by the house, maybe he will be buried next to the master when he dies, so that he can continue to be a slave underground.

The children of the family depend on the door of the mansion to survive, and they can also get more trust. Correspondingly, the slaves who were bought by leaving home halfway were much weaker at the root.

Whether it is the household registration management of the government or the genealogical records of the folk clans, the main basis is - self-declaration. Although the head of the household and others will carry out a certain amount of supervision, everyone still has to weigh it carefully in the matter of reporting the household registration.

If you do not report your household registration, you will not be able to get some benefits calculated according to your capitation.

Therefore, the common practice is that children have a high mortality rate, so they are not busy reporting their household registration first, anyway, they will only be counted as Ding at the age of fourteen, and they will report when they are twelve or thirteen years old.

Therefore, when Chaoxia and her younger brother came to the house, there was probably no official population record, at most there was a certificate of 'innocence' from the township. With Grandma Jia as the internal response, maybe there is no proof of this.

There is no official record, and one is in the inner courtyard and the other is in the outer courtyard, as long as you pay attention to yourself and don't say it, it is not easy for others to know that these two are sisters and brothers.

Will the master bother to find out the eighteenth generation of the slave's ancestors? As for the relationship between slaves and slaves, it is even more complicated, in addition to all kinds of relatives who turn corners, it is also quite common to recognize relatives, and usually the master will not bother to pay attention to it.

It's just that a minion nods his head and is busy doing things before and after, and he is willing to work hard.

In fact, Ning Junwu was quite dry when he talked about this, not at all like the way Qin Si Girl's eyebrows fluttered when she talked about gossip, but it didn't prevent Xia Xiaodong from listening to it with relish.

"I see." Xia Xiaodong nodded and said, "You see, if you are a conspiracy theorist, you will be able to discover the conspiracy immediately." ”

"What conspiracy?" Ning Junwu felt that the title of 'conspiracy theorist' was very interesting, it seemed that he was not, why didn't he see anything.

"Bet on both ends." Xia Xiaodong stretched out his left hand first: "Grandma Jia will bet the big head, that is, herself and Chaoxia, on you." But you can't hang yourself from one tree, you have to find another one. ”

Xia Xiaodong said and stretched out his right hand again: "So, let Chaoxia's younger brother follow Twenty-eight." After all, Twenty-Eight was born to today's wife, and she also has a chance to get ahead. ”

Left hand, right hand, two hands.

After making a gesture of weighing left and right with both hands, Xia Xiaodong continued: "Well, no matter which of your two brothers wins, Grandma Jia will sit firmly on the Diaoyutai and can ask for credit from the winner." ”

"Credit?" Ning Jun Wuqi said: "I thought you would say self-preservation. ”

"Hey, it's just that self-protection is such a low-level, I guess Grandma Jia shouldn't bother to spend so much effort to do it." Xia Xiaodong said with a smile: "You might as well think about it, if Grandma Jia has hinted that she arranged for someone to seduce her for Twenty-Eight Bad Studies?" ”

Ning Junwu's eyes flashed, and he couldn't help but show surprise.

"Isn't this an invitation?" Xia Xiaodong said coldly: "If Twenty-Eight wins, she can say that for so many years, she has deliberately made you not forget the old things of your mother back then, developed a temperament that will be retribution, and connived at you on women, and finally succeeded in weakening your combat effectiveness." ”

"......" Ning Junwu suddenly felt that just like the analysis of 'speaking lightly' just now, this analysis of 'speaking more heavily' is also quite reasonable.

"Is she really a scheming person?" Ning Junwu looked at Xia Xiaodong, hoping to get an answer.

Xia Xiaodong just smiled slightly: "It's all said that conspiracy theorists think so." I have never seen it, let alone know Grandma Jia, I can only say that everything is possible, but it is inconclusive. ”

"If Grandma Jia wants to harm me," Ning Junwu picked up a pine nut candy he brought, took a bite of it in a daze, and muttered: "She has always been by my side, opportunities are readily available, and there is no need to be so troublesome." ”

"Why did she take the initiative to harm you?" Xia Xiaodong said: "What's in it for her to hurt you?" ”

The status of a slave in a mansion is determined by the master she follows. is the so-called prime minister's doorman seven-rank official, and it is because of the existence of Ning Junwu that Grandma Jia has a place for her.

If there is no Ning Junwu, what kind of character is she, a 'former princess's dowry maid'? Typical four-sided non-leaning. I have no friendship with the old people in Prince Min's mansion, and I have no friendship with the newcomers brought by the new princess, only everyone is gone.

"Didn't she find someone to deal with you this time?" Ning Junwu said gloomily: "She has always boasted that she is loyal to me, and always puts on a righteous and awe-inspiring appearance to be filial to me." As a result, she raised a private child by herself, not to mention, but also bet on both ends! (To be continued.) )
