ps: The last two chapters are wrong, Jia Lian's age should be twenty-one years old, just in his early years. It is hereby corrected.

The following text.

Mother Jia listened to Jia Yu's words and felt a little relieved. On the one hand, he restrained his son, grandson, and mother-in-law, and waited for Jia Jiu and Jia Qian to come back from the palace. This is more than half a month, waiting for Jia's mother's mouth to foam, waiting for the Jia family's minions to panic.

After all, Jia's mother didn't wait for her granddaughter and great-granddaughter to come back, but he didn't have to wait after all, because there was finally a move in the court.

With the dismissal of the deputy prime minister and the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, a large number of officials dismounted, and the matter should have come to an end, but the death of Concubine Li in the palace pushed several imperial uncles and brothers and several eldest princesses to the cusp. At the end of the year, an imperial uncle, two imperial brothers, and four eldest princesses were seized of their titles and imprisoned in the Zongzheng Mansion. Their children and grandchildren were also demoted to commoners and sent to Ding'an Prefecture.

Jia Jiu and Jia Qian returned home the day before the lunar month, accompanied by the palace maids and grandmothers.

Mother Jia was full of relief when she saw her granddaughter and great-granddaughter who saluted her: "Okay, good, just come back." Are you all in the palace? ”

Jia Jiu replied: "Back to the old lady, it's good for my granddaughter and Qian'er to be in the palace." Her Royal Highness the princess was frightened a lot in the north this time, and she was not well rested, and she was easy to wake up in the middle of the night, so she summoned her granddaughter and Qian'er to accompany her. ”

Jia Mu said: "I see. I also said, why is Her Royal Highness the princess unwilling to let go of people under the big festival, I think it is for another reason. That's the New Year. Are you going to enter the palace too? ”

Jia Jiu replied: "Her Royal Highness the princess hasn't said it yet. If it is announced in the palace, I am afraid that my granddaughter and Qian'er will not be able to refuse. ”

Jia Mu nodded, and asked Jia Jiu and Jia Qian to get up and sit on the side. He turned his head to Jia Yu, who was sitting next to him, and said, "It seems that Lian'er's marriage is also on the agenda." If the second girl stays in the palace for a long time, there must always be someone in the family who prepares sacrifices. ”

No one needs to say this. Whether it's Jia Qian or Jia Qing, no matter which one of them is, they don't have this qualification. Because they are adopted daughters. Even if they have already been knighted, they are not qualified to prepare the sacrifice of the five products on behalf of Jia Jiu.

Jia's mother is good, and Jia Yu is good. There will be no second understanding of this kind of thing.

Jia Yu replied: "Old lady, my son has been thinking about this matter for two years, but he has never been able to make a decision. A few days ago. The son specially went to Zhang's house to visit his father-in-law and several uncles, according to Zhang's family, he was afraid that the aftermath of the above would not stop, and the trees would be quiet and the wind would not stop. At this time, I said goodbye to Lian'er. It's hard to say that you won't get married. My son also admitted that our family's reputation is not good enough, and there is really no good girl in Beijing who can match Lian'er. The family with a good family, a good family style, a family that can stand tall, and a girl who can afford the responsibility of the clan woman, I am afraid that they will not look down on our family or Lian'er, but if we want to succumb, the clan woman is not so easy to be, no matter what. The ancestors must not be neglected. Second, the son didn't want to wronged Lian'er. Third, it is related to family inheritance, and it cannot be sloppy. ”

When Jia Mu heard this, she immediately dispelled several candidates in her heart. The four families of Jia Shi and Wang Xue have been friends for hundreds of years, because of the relationship between Mrs. Wang, the daughter and granddaughter of the Wang family have been on the blacklist of Jia Lian's fiancée candidates, and the only thing left is the Shi family. The problem is that the eldest girl in the Shi family's line and Jia Lian's generation is Shi Xiangyun, who is nine years old this year. Unless Jia's mother is willing to let her grandson succumb to the girl of the Shi family's side branch, otherwise, the Jia family and the Shi family can only wait for Jia Baoyu to marry again.

Since there is no suitable girl in the Jia family's in-laws, Shi Wang Xuesan's family, Jia's mother can only accept Jia Yu's opinion and let Jia Lian marry a girl outside.

Mother Jia frowned, ignoring the presence of so many juniors and outsiders in the family: "Boss, you give me a direction, and also give me a bottom." What do you think about in your mind? ”

At this moment, Jia Lian was not in front of Jia's mother, but Jia Baoyu and other juniors were sitting on the side, but Jia's mother couldn't care about this.

Jia's mother also knew that this son had become more and more eccentric in the past two or three years outside. If you don't seize the opportunity, you may not be able to get a message out of Jia Yu's mouth next time.

Jia Yu said: "Old lady, what else can my son do? In Beijing, there are not as many people as the second child who his son knows. The only people his son recognizes, except for Zhang Guji's family, who has a daughter who is similar to Lian'er, is only a businessman. ”

"Guerrilla Zhang? Who? ”

Jia Yu said: "It's Zhang Guerrilla who is with his son in An Yuanwei." Oh, by the way, now they're generals. His daughter made a good gun, and in the past two years in An Yuanwei, this child has killed a lot of Di people. ”

When Jia Mu heard this, she immediately shook her head: "No, it's always bad to dance with guns and sticks all day long." If he loses his temper, who in the family can stand it? What about the merchant. ”

Jia Yu said: "Which other business? Naturally, it was the emperor's maternal uncle's family, a merchant, and the Shang Dynasty of the year. There is no one in their family who is an official now, but the foundation is still there. In the past two years, if it weren't for the young master of the merchant who fought side by side with us, we wouldn't have been able to support it. I heard that he has a sister who is the same age as Lian'er. Although it is said that this young master of Shang Qingyi is not a descendant of the merchant clan, he is also a young master of the merchant lineage. The girls in their family are always nice. And with the current status of our family, coupled with the love of our father and son fighting side by side with the young master of the businessman, and with the help of the Zhang family to lobby, it may be possible. ”

When Mother Jia heard that it was the emperor's maternal uncle's house, she was a little uncomfortable at the time: "Why is it his family?" ”

Although Jia Yu recommended the merchant very much, Jia's mother was not very happy. First, it is because of the prestige of the merchant back then. To be honest, when Jia's mother was a girl, how majestic the merchants were, Jia's mother remembered very clearly. To put it mildly, if his marriage to Jia Daishan was not a baby kiss, I am afraid that his mother-in-law would use the light of Emperor Gaozu to marry the daughter of a merchant for his son.

Second, of course, it is because of the relationship between the emperor. Everyone knows that the idea between the Emperor Taishang and the current emperor. The Emperor Taishang and the current emperor have been fighting endlessly for the word power. As the mother family of the Emperor Taishang, the merchants must be the forces of the Emperor by default. In other words, even if they don't have any officials, they still belong to the side of the Emperor. Although both of them are saints, the Emperor Taishang is the Emperor after all, and he has abdicated. Although there is still filial piety, the emperor is the name of the emperor.

Just look at the changes in the power in the court in the past few years: the Emperor Taishang will definitely not be able to fight the emperor's side, unless the Emperor Taishang can really live a hundred years and live longer than the current emperor.

From this point of view, marrying a merchant girl is really not much benefit to the Jia family. Because the merchant is the mother family of the Emperor Taishang, his future prospects are really limited, and he may even be implicated, becoming the victim of the Emperor Taishang and the current emperor.

Jia Mu really thinks so. However, Jia's mother also knows that Jia Lian's marriage really has no right to speak. I will ask, but I am just asking for peace of mind.

Now I see that Jia Yu is reluctant to say more. Mother Jia was also not interested, and said: "Lian'er's marriage committee is really difficult to find. Whose girls can pat their breasts and ensure that as soon as they enter the door, they will take care of everything inside and out, up and down? If nothing else, the matter of sacrifice alone is not simple. Well, there's no urgency in this matter. But he can't be sloppy in the sacrificial matters, and he can only wronged the second girl and let him go out less. The affairs of the palace will be handed over to the girl. ”

Whether it is Jia's mother or Jia Yu, they can all guess the reason why Princess Changle needs someone to accompany her. Because he has endured a lot of hardships and sins outside, and has experienced so many and so terrible things, he is naturally extremely vulnerable. Just when he was most helpless, he was rescued, and of course he would cling to his savior. It's just that Jia's mother thought that the person who saved Princess Changle was Jia Qian, but Jia Yu knew very well that the person who really saved Princess Changle and sent people to the palace was actually her own daughter.

Jia Yu was stunned, not knowing how to answer Jia's mother's words.

Of course he can't sue Jia's mother, in fact, the person who went to the battlefield was his daughter Jia Jiu, not Jia Qian, a cheap granddaughter, and he couldn't sue Jia's mother, in fact, Princess Changle wanted to be accompanied by her own daughter rather than Jia Qian's company.

It's just that if his daughter stays in the palace, then no one will take care of the family and the sacrificial affairs, which is a big deal.

For a while, Jia Yu forgot about the ups and downs outside, and only thought about giving the matter of the sacrifice.

Shi Xiangyun, who was sitting next to Jia's mother, widened his eyes and stared at Jia Jiu and Jia Qian. The current Jia family is very different from the Jia family when Mrs. Wang was in charge, even if Shi Xiangyun lives in Jia's mother's yard, even if there is almost no change in Jia's mother's yard, Shi Xiangyun still notices a lot of things.

If it was before, he would definitely only pay attention to what he eats, wears, and uses, and at most he pays attention to pomp and circumstance, but in the past few years, he has also faintly discovered that sacrifice is not such a simple thing. Just like Jia Qing. Over the years, Jia Yu and Jia Lian are not at home, Jia Jiu and Jia Qian are not there, Jia Yu's family is full of calculations, and there are only three masters of Mrs. Xing and Jia Cong and Jia Qing who are lying down, but Rao is like this, Jia Qing has not caught the work of preparing sacrifices. All he and Jia Cong could do was kowtow and burn incense at the entrance of the main hall in Lixiang Courtyard, and nothing else could be done.

In contrast, it was Jia Qing who acted as an agent for the things in the back garden, and took care of the things in the back garden in an orderly manner, no girl dared to say that he was not, and no girl dared to disobey him.

Comparing these two compartments, even Shi Xiangyun has to admit that some things are doomed and cannot be changed. (To be continued......)
