Jia Jing's mind is actually not much different from Xue Baochai's, the difference is that Xue Baochai figured out the way of Jia Jiu and Jia Qing to catch those officials for the Xue family and seek fame and fortune for himself, while Jia Jing figured out that Jia Qing got the guidance of Master Yan to improve his knowledge.
Although they are all used, because the ultimate goal is different, the feeling they bring to people is completely different. Xue Baochai wanted fame and fortune, but he just mentioned it in Jia Jiu's ear, which caused Jia Jiu's 120,000 points of vigilance; Jia Jing said in public that he wanted to see Master Yan's guidance to Jia Qing, but no one felt that there was anything wrong.
This is the typical mentality of a reader, and stealing a book is not stealing. And this mentality, in the eyes of many people, not just readers, is quite marketable.
At that time, a person who pursued learning by any means would not attract the contempt of others, and everyone would only praise his studiousness. And Jia Jing didn't directly say that Jia Qing would give him Master Yan's letter, but asked Jia Qing to copy it out to him, and this matter finally reached Master Yan's ears, which would only make the other party laugh, or although he regretted Jia Jing's age, for the sake of his studiousness, he might pretend not to know but add guidance to Jia Jing in the letter.
With Master Yan's personality and cultivation, the possibility of secretly guiding Jia Jing is still very high.
This is Confucianism, there is no class, and there is no class, and you will live to learn.
As for what Jia Jing said about opening the treasury of Ning Guofu to help Jia Qing cope with entertainment or something, you must know that Jia Jing is the person with the highest rank in Ning Guofu. He is not only the patriarch of the Ning Guofu branch, but also Jia Zhen's father. It is the male elder of the Jia family. He wants to open the treasury, who can stop him? And what qualifications do you have to stop him? This is one of them.
Second. Although after the separation, Jia Yu and his children and granddaughters were all outsiders to Jia Jing's side, but Jia Jing was the enlightenment teacher of Jia Jiu, Jia Qian and Jia Qing. Don't say that Master Yan has not officially accepted Jia Qing as a disciple, that is, in the future, Master Yan will really accept Jia Qing, and Master Yan is only Jia Qing's mentor. And not a teacher.
The status of the teacher is always different.
Third, when Jia Yu left home, he cautiously handed over several children in the family to Jia Jing. Jia Jing's help is not meddled in other people's family affairs. Moreover, Jia Zhen is also selfish. He also knew that he was seventy years old and not in good health. And his son Jia Zhen is in the prime of life. Jia Zhen's temperament can't be changed. I can still suppress him while he is in good health, and when he is not in good health, maybe he won't be able to help this son. Rather than letting the huge family business be ruined by this son, it is better to arrange things while he is still tough.
Spend some things outside the body to form a good fate, in the future the family will really fall, and today's good karma can also take care of the future grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Jia Jing can see clearly: his son Jia Zhen can't be broken, and his grandson can be saved, but it takes a little more effort. The problem is that he is already old, and it depends on whether God can complete it; Jia's mother in the next room is unreliable. The clansmen on the back street are even more unreliable, and they will only stare at Ning Guofu's property. Now only his three disciples will be able to take care of his daughter and his grandson in the future, and Jia Jing has to do this for the sake of his daughter and grandson.
It's really pitiful for the hearts of parents all over the world.
For the sake of his daughter, grandson and future great-grandson, Jia Jing took great pains. You must know that Ning Guofu not only includes the ancestral and private property belonging to Jia Jing's family, but also includes the family property of the Jia family. If you are not careful, it is likely to attract the dissatisfaction of the entire clan.
These things, whether it is the You family or Qin Keqing, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are very clear.
In fact, You Shi and Qin Keqing's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are in a similar situation. Both of them are quite good people and can do things, but their backgrounds are not good.
It's just that You's biological father is a petty official. Who asked You to fill the house? If his maiden family is very strong, then how could the Jia family let him have no biological flesh and blood before Jia Rong's son was born? Being a mother is strong, if he has his own biological flesh and blood, then where can Jia Rong live peacefully to this day? Especially after asking Qin Keqing to be his wife? You himself is well aware of this.
The problem lies in You's two cheap sisters, and their kind of behavior is simply pouring dirty water on You's body, making people wonder if You is also a slut who hates poverty and loves rich.
In this era, it is not uncommon for widows to remarry, just like You's stepmother, she has already given birth to two daughters before, and she can also marry You's father with two oil bottles as a stepfamily and become an official wife. Although he was not as wealthy as the Jia family, he still got him and his two daughters an official background.
The world is not harsh on the remarriage of widows, because of the Wang family's daughter, Daqi has lost millions of people, and at the same time, a large number of soldiers are needed to replenish the border of Daqi every year. Under such circumstances, it became logical for Daqi to encourage childbearing and widows to remarry.
But on the other hand, when a man marries a wife, he often says that he marries a virtuous wife, and what is required is virtuous, which means that the woman is virtuous, has a kind attitude, is kind and docile, reasonable, and ingenious. It is generally used to describe women to mean that after getting married, a woman is a good housekeeper, kind-hearted, reasonable, knows how to teach her husband and children, and can honor her parents. The first of these is virtue.
If an unmarried woman fools around with other men every day, dresses scantily, and sells her hues in exchange for money, can this be said to be virtuous?
The original book does not mention when Second Sister You and Third Sister You hooked up with Jia Zhen, but when You Jing died and "Duyanli was mourned", it was mentioned that You Laoniang, You's stepmother, came to Ningguo Mansion with her two daughters for the reason of helping. This is also the official appearance of Second Sister You and Third Sister You. At this time, Jia Zhen and Jia Rong, who were sending off the funeral, heard the news halfway through the road and immediately hurried up. It only took a day to rush back to Jingshi. Judging from Jia Zhen and Jia Rong's appearances, Jia Zhen, who is a hungry ghost in the sex, obviously knew about Eryou's beauty for a long time, so she was so eager. But before that. Whether he and Eryou really hooked up together, it is unknown.
But now, Jia Zhen hooked up with Eryou earlier than in the original book.
Also.
In the original book, Li Jia Jing stayed in the Taoist temple all day long and didn't care about the affairs of Ning Guofu at all, so Cao Xueqin wrote in the twelve pieces of "Good Things End", which hinted at Qin Keqing's fate: "Painting Liang Chun is full of fragrant dust." Good at style and moon appearance is the root of the loser. Ji Qiu is depraved and respected. The death of the family is the first sin. Evil is always due to love! ”
The last three sentences of this song are: The defeat of the Jia family started from Ning Guofu, if Ning Guofu didn't care about the matter of sacrificing the field, it was after the seizure. The Jia family still has a way out. However, as a clan branch, Ning Guofu failed to add enough clan property and sacrificial fields to the clan, so that after the seizure of the family, the entire Jia family was impoverished, and even the children and grandchildren of the family could not even eat sour rice (pickled pickles) in the cold winter.
And the beginning of this qiē was because of Jia Jing's inaction. The key is on Qin Keqing.
The relationship between Qin Keqing and Jia Zhen seems to be a reason. But in fact, the identity behind Qin Keqing made Jia Jing have no way to manage Jia Zhen, and without Jia Jing's discipline, Jia Zhen acted recklessly, which caused this evil relationship, and also caused Qin Keqing's death, and Qin Keqing's death made Jia Jing more and more unable to return to Ningguo Mansion.
Jia Jing, Jia Zhen, and Qin Keqing, three people of different generations, have created three stages of entanglement and mutual containment. It also made a tragic beginning.
But now it's different. Because of Jia Jiu, Jia Yu went out. Tearing open a hole in the dense net hidden underwater, Jia Jing followed this opening, found a reason, and returned to Ningguo Mansion.
Jia Jing returned to Ningguo Mansion, even if he didn't do anything, Jia Zhen couldn't do anything to Qin Keqing under Jia Jing's nose, which also indirectly saved Qin Keqing.
Qin Keqing is also educated in the end, if no one persecutes him, of course he will not be able to do anything to pick up ashes.
Qin Keqing is also a smart woman, so she naturally knows the impact of Jia Jing's return on him. Even if Jia Jing doesn't like him, and even dislikes him a little, but in any case, Jia Jing's preservation is equivalent to saving him and protecting him, so he can only be grateful to this father-in-law.
For Jia Zhen, her father's return has only disadvantages and no benefits. The charming and amorous daughter-in-law couldn't steal it, and the girls in the family didn't allow him to touch it, and even sent away many concubines. For Jia Zhen, the hungry ghost in the color, this is simply unbearable.
Jia Jing is Jia Zhen's father, Jia Zhen can't resist Jia Jing at all, and even Jia Jing doesn't allow Jia Zhen to set up a banquet at home, Jia Zhen can only endure it and secretly go out to have fun.
Jia Jing came back, even if Jia Jing didn't shorten Jia Zhen's monthly pocket money, but Jia Zhen couldn't touch the large amount of silver money, because these silver coins were all used by his father to buy sacrificial fields. And Jia Zhen's little example is not enough for him to go out and drink flower wine every day.
In such a situation, there are two young and beautiful women, as long as a few small money, he can play casually, and even provide a place to have fun, how can Jia Zhen be unhappy? Even if the You family's house is unsatisfactory, at this moment, Jia Zhen doesn't care.
For Second Sister You, he has already had a marriage contract with Zhang Hua, and his refusal to marry is just because Zhang Hua can't let him live a rich life with gold and silver and a maid to serve him.
Jia Zhen's idea is indeed not enough for him to go out to drink flower wine every day, but it is enough to raise Second Sister You and Third Sister You. In Beijing, renting a small courtyard with more than ten rooms may be a burden for those who are rushing to take the exam, but it is not expensive for Jia Zhen; Second Sister You Third Sister You clothes and jewelry can be reimbursed on the public account of Ning Guofu; The money to buy a house of servant women and two or three little girls can't cost fifty taels, and Jia Zhen gives another twenty taels of silver per month to the family, and the You sisters each have two taels of silver per month.
Jia Zhen got it all done, but it only cost him half of a month's share, and he didn't even use his private money. He also found that after keeping the two women in his house, he even had an extra place to play, because he was able to entertain his fox friends here.
Jia Zhen's behavior can't hide from his wife You Shi, and naturally he can't hide it from Jia Jing. Because I know these things. You Shi's prestige in Ning Guofu has become lower and lower, and he can't even raise his head in front of his daughter-in-law, but it is Qin Keqing. After knowing this, he was secretly relieved.
Jia Zhen and Eryou are getting better, so he will be able to relax for the time being.
Yes, although You Shi deliberately concealed it, what kind of character Qin Keqing was, and how could he not know? Now he's just pretending not to know. The matter of Jia Zhen and Eryou is actually hidden from the few little girls living in the back garden, the people in front and outside. Actually, most people know about it.
For a woman like Second Sister You Third Sister You, for the woman inside the mansion gate, no one can sympathize with it at all. Even the girls below can't look down on it.
It is those women who have fallen to lowly status and leaned on the building to laugh, in order for their children to have a good background, they secretly throw their children at the door of those Taoist temples and the Hall of Mercy and Grace, in order to hope that their children can have a good background in the future. You don't have to live that kind of day to be sent to.
But these two women were willing to fall. Obviously, if you live a little frugally, you can still live a life with You's help. Even if the dowry is not so rich, even if the family who marries is not very good, but he can still afford to buy a little girl, and he can marry a few acres of land. But they let go of such a peaceful life, but they made secret prostitutes for a few gold and silver jewelry, and a few beautiful clothes, if this kind of person spreads out. I'm afraid that not only will the reputation of the You clan be affected, but even the reputation of the women of their Ning Guofu will also be implicated.
So Jia Jing didn't have such a relative at all.
Therefore, Qin Keqing also regarded the You family as having no one at all. At all, the people on You Lao Niang's side were not allowed to approach the gate of Ning Guofu.
He was afraid of being embarrassed.
Indeed, with people like Second Sister You, even Jia Jiu and Jia Qing will not have sympathy for them.
Say he's pathetic? Maybe there are indeed two points of pity, but these two points of pity are also brought on by him. Doesn't he know what this world requires of women? is to put aside the various constraints of the ancients on women, a woman who is not even a concubine actually looks at the death of Jia Lian's wife Wang Xifeng, so as to make room for him. No matter what Wang Xifeng is like and whether he gives birth to a son to Jia Lian or not, this is an unbearable thing for any legitimate legitimate child.
Jia Qing said: For a woman like Second Sister You, it's good that he doesn't step on his feet in a hurry, do you have to wait for him to get up and block himself? It is that there are that kind of boring people who sympathize with this kind of woman, which gives this kind of woman the confidence to think that after giving birth to a child, she has the opportunity to fight for property with other people's serious wives and legitimate legitimate children, and fight for the legitimate rights and interests of his wife and children.
Such behavior, without sufficient legal and moral constraints, will only turn into murder for money in the end.
Second Sister You is pitiful, because he had a miscarriage and died early. If he gave birth to his son, it would be Wang Xifeng and Wang Xifeng's daughter Sister Qiao.
Second Sister You is not a serious concubine, because the concubine also has to go to the government to make documents. He's just an outroom.
For those who sympathize with Second Sister You, Jia Qing said that if it weren't for those boring people who blindly sympathized with women like Second Sister You, social public opinion would not be directed to women like Second Sister You. It is precisely because public opinion has given a woman like Second Sister You enough confidence that he will become more terrifying.
It seems that a woman like Second Sister You and his illegitimate son should also have human rights and should recognize their inheritance rights, and such a small issue will eventually become a big problem that endangers the life and property safety of legitimate legitimate children, and even causes social turmoil.
Outer children and illegitimate children should have human rights, so who will guarantee the human rights of legitimate wives and legitimate children?
If the outward and illegitimate children commit adultery, they should have the right to inherit, so does it mean that if they kill their legitimate children, the illegitimate children of the outer chambers will be able to obtain all the father's property, including the joint property of the marriage?
The contradictions between the outward and illegitimate children and the legitimate wives and legitimate children have never been irreconcilable. If society recognizes the rights and interests of outlaws and illegitimate children, then who will ensure the safety of the lives and property of legal wives and legitimate children?
Do legitimate children deserve to die?!!!
As a victim, Jia Qing said that if Second Sister You didn't provoke him, he could treat it as if he didn't see it, and if Second Sister You thought that calculating his family would be able to become a member of the Jia family, Jia Qing wouldn't mind feeding Second Sister You to swallow gold in person!
At the moment when he was recognized by Jia Yu, Jia Qing considered this possibility. If this time, Second Sister You decided to hit his uncle Jia Lian again, he would definitely not let go of this woman.
Jia Jiu hadn't noticed the subtle changes between You Shi and Qin Keqing, but Jia Qing had noticed them these days.
Jia Jing's reliance on the You family and his dislike for Qin Keqing were all seen by Jia Qing. In his opinion, as long as Jia Jing is at home, then You Jing's position is unshakable. But today, it seems that You Shi is extremely polite to his daughter-in-law for some reason.
Jia Qing couldn't see any immorality in the You clan, and he needed to be so wooden in front of Qin Keqing.
Jia Qing guessed that there might be other reasons. And the only people Jia Qing could think of were Second Sister You and Third Sister You. Thinking of the description of Second Sister You and Third Sister You in the original book, Jia Qing was like swallowing a fly, and he was extremely uncomfortable.
Could it be that these two women hooked up with Jia Zhen's father and son at this time?
Thinking of Jia Jing's dedication to Jia Rong's homework these days, Jia Qing felt that Jia Zhen was the only one who was likely to be caught by Eryou.
Although he is full of sympathy for the You family, but for Ning Guofu, Jia Qing is just an outsider, and this kind of thing is not something that a girl like him can inquire about, so he can only be secretly careful.
Hearing Jia Jing say this, he hesitated for a moment before he said, "I'm just a child, why did they send such a valuable gift?" ”
Qin Keqing looked at Jia Mu Jia Jing above and said, "These things are extremely valuable for some people, but for some people, they are actually not more than Erer. It's like this tea brick. There are also this kind of tea bricks in other places, but this one of my sister is the tea brick of Mingfeng Academy, and it is said that Mingfeng Academy can make tea from all over the top from the husband to the students, and they are the most knowledgeable people. Sister, just imagine, can this tea brick from the hands of ordinary tea farmers be compared with the tea brick made by the prime minister himself? The tea bricks of Mingfeng Academy are valuable, and what is valuable is knowledge. ”
Jia Qing understands in seconds.
He replied, "In this way, maybe our return gift doesn't need to be too expensive, just focus on it." Maybe we can make our own sake in return. ”
Qin Keqing said: "I only know that the second aunt has made a lot of wine, and in addition to worshipping the ancestors, it is also tight to give it away." Where is your call? There are so many of your posts here. ”
Jia Jiu smiled: "It's okay. Although there is not much wine left. But this apple can also be used to make wine, as well as autumn pears. Although the weather is cold now, as long as you are willing to spend money, you can still buy apples and pears. It's just a bit of work. I don't think you will count the later than our return gift. ”
Jia Jing was about to nod, but Jia Mu said, "No." Those who teach are okay, but the return gift to the two masters can't be shabby. ”
Jia Jing said: "Old lady, the teacher you are talking about is likely to be the mentor of the two Xiangye." slighting them is tantamount to stepping on the faces of the two prime ministers. Think again, old lady. ”
Jia Mu was stunned and didn't dare to speak again.
Jia Jing said again: "Although it's not rude to do this, it's still not good." It always takes time to make wine, and people are either high-ranking officials or have a very high status in Confucianism, and it is not a good thing to be sluggish. ”
Jia Qing thought for a while and said, "So, can I send some hand-made fragrant pancreas to the ladies of your gentlemen's family?" That's fast, and it will only take ten years at most. And also the ability to make all kinds of changes. ”
Jia Jing said: "This also makes it." ”
Jia Qing has already thought about it, if you can't find fruit oil (i.e., olive oil), it can also be tea seed oil, and if there is no decolorized tea seed oil, you can also use mutton fat, or even vegetable oil. As for additives, dried flowers, cow's milk, goat's milk, and even herbs such as borneol can be used. Anyway, you just need to make three or four things.
The only problem is that if it is made sweet, it is likely to be eaten by children as a snack. (To be continued......)
