Mother Jia has always loved to be lively, and when she heard Tanchun say this, she was very happy: "I'll just say, you children are just too honest." It's a good thing to start a poetry club, so why wait until today to talk about it? ”

He sent people to inform everywhere, and after a while, everyone who should have come came, even Jia Baoyu in his small courtyard. On the contrary, Jia Jiu, Jia Qian, Jia Qing, and Xing Xiuyan did not come.

Jia Jiuren didn't come over, but asked Xiaohong to send a letter of silver: "Old lady, our girl is also very happy to hear that the third girl has this Yaxing." Her Royal Highness the Princess likes to be quiet, I'm afraid I can't come over. Here are fifty taels of silver. Our girl said that the sisters' monthly money is not much, Miss Qin and the two girls of the Li family are guests, although the poetry club is a game of the daughter's family, but this tea fruit is still indispensable. These fifty taels of silver are a little bit of our girl's heart, I just hope that when our girl comes in the future, the third girl will not kick our girl out, so that our girl can ask for a glass of water and wine to drink. ”

This is said softly and closely.

Mother Jia is old, and she likes to see the lively and lively juniors below and the scene of harmony at home. Now as the eldest sister and the girl with the highest status in the family, Jia Jiu can put down her body to take care of her younger sisters, and Jia's mother is naturally happy.

Jia Baoyu was even happier when she heard that Jia Jiu had paid the money, and couldn't help but say: "In the old year, we also said that we wanted to set up a poetry club, but the second sister shirked and said that she couldn't come, and she also sent us a letter of silver, how long ago did that happen?" The second sister is really. Even if you don't, you can come and have some fun. ”

Jia Mu listened. I was shocked.

He patronized and rejoiced, but forgot about the big trouble of men and women. It's just that the grandmothers around Jia Jiu can count the numbers, and they are all from the palace. It's just that some people don't come out of the palace, and their original identities are not bad, and they are clear about these rules. With such grandmothers raising and mentioning, it's strange that Jia Jiu will give Jia Baoyu a chance to be in the same room with him!

If it is in front of him, in the name of giving the elders morning and dusk, it will be forgotten, and when he comes out of this house, this granddaughter will not meet with this grandson.

Just Jia Mu sighed. Jia Qian and Jia Qing also sent people over, so they shirked it and sent a sum of silver.

Jia Mu knew. A few girls in the big house will not come to participate in any poetry clubs, and even more, they will not even be willing to lend their back gardens to Tanchun and others to run any poetry clubs, unless Jia Baoyu is excluded.

Just when Jia's mother had a headache. A girl came running in a hurry outside. As soon as he entered the door, he knelt down with a puff and said loudly: "Old lady, the lord said that the above has been approved, and during the Lantern Festival next year, my mother will be allowed to go home to save her relatives." ”

Jia Mu stood up suddenly, and after a long while, he saw joy bloom from his face little by little.

"Reward. Reward. ”

Jia Mu was so excited that she was a little incoherent.

Hearing Jia's mother say reward, Li Kun immediately reacted. However, he is a widow, even if there is really something, it is not his turn to reward, let alone the little girl Tanchun. On the contrary, it was the mandarin duck, after hearing about this, he immediately rewarded the little girl below with a silver nude and let the little girl go down.

Although Jia's mother said that it was rewarded, in fact, the people who got the reward money were just slaves in Jia's mother's own yard. Jia Yu would not be so happy as to reward the servants at home for Jia Zheng's affairs, and Mrs. Wang, who was short of money and had green eyes, would not take out a large amount of silver to reward.

As for Jia's mother, although he has a lot of private houses, his income on the surface is still mainly 30,000 taels of silver from Jia Yu's filial piety. If he pays to reward the people in the entire mansion, then Jia Mu will have a hard time for the rest of the year.

Unless he is willing to use his own private house.

Jia Zhengdu asked the girl to come to Jia's mother to report the good news, and Mrs. Wang obviously got the news as well.

Mrs. Wang cleaned up in the mirror and dressed herself up neatly, and then went to Jia's mother's upper room.

The last time Mrs. Wang was so carefully dressed was when Jia Baoyu was one year old, and he was still the wife in charge of the mansion, managing his son's first birthday banquet.

As for last year, when Jia Yuanchun was crowned a concubine, at that time, the will came suddenly, and the female dependents of other people's families all entered the palace to thank him, but only the female dependents of the Jia family did not get permission. said that he understood Jia's mother's age, but in fact, it wasn't because Jia's mother was not virtuous? As for Mrs. Wang, don't say that the will is on, even the little yellow door he proclaimed is regarded as having no such person.

It can be said that when Jia Yuanchun was crowned concubine, Mrs. Wang, who was still in the Buddhist hall, could almost be said to be the last one in the entire Jia family to know.

And at that time, Mrs. Wang, in addition to Jia Yuanchun's concubine, only had a sense of uncertainty about Jia Yuanchun's concubine, thinking that she was dreaming.

Now, a year has passed.

The current Mrs. Wang's greatest wish is that when Jia Yuanchun's canonization ceremony passes, Jia Yuanchun will be the imperial concubine, no one can question Jia Yuanchun's status, and no one will dare to despise him, the biological mother of the imperial concubine.

At that time, he must let those people know that he is not easy to mess with.

Especially the girl who ruined his home and ruined him, he must give him a little color.

Mother Jia was also very happy when she saw Mrs. Wang, who looked very energetic after being dressed up in surprise: "The second family, you can be regarded as coming." What are your thoughts on the arrangements for the day of the mother's wedding? ”

The juniors have long been sent by Mother Jia to talk in the big flower hall at the back, and now in the main hall, only Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang, as well as the girls of the two, no matter what they say, they can both speak openly.

Mrs. Wang said: "Old lady, Niangniang was raised by you, and I can't say that I want to meet the old lady and say a few words to the old lady more than the sisters." Moreover, the Lantern Festival is a good day for the mother, and it should also let others touch the joy of the mother. ……”

Jia Yuanchun was hugged to Jia's mother when he landed, and was raised by Jia's mother. Because she is a concubine, and she can speak and please Jia's mother, Jia's mother has had great expectations for this granddaughter for many years.

I hope he can get ahead, and I hope he can glorify his ancestors.

Frankly. Mother Jia never thought that this granddaughter would be a female official in the palace for three years, and she couldn't climb up. was even kicked out of the court because of another granddaughter.

At that time, if it weren't for the eldest son's stubborn protection, that Jia's mother would have ordered someone to beat the granddaughter violently.

After calming down, Jia's mother saw that her second granddaughter was more than her eldest granddaughter, speaking and acting more organized and calm, so she slowly shifted her expectations to her second granddaughter.

It can be said that Jia's mother's attitude towards her two granddaughters is very clear. Whoever can bring more benefits to the family, he will spoil that one more.

Jia's mother thought that his eldest granddaughter would enter the palace again. will only spend a lifetime in the cold palace, it is better to put all your hopes on the second granddaughter. But once again, his choice proved wrong. The eldest granddaughter not only crawled out of the cold palace, but also became the imperial concubine. Instead, he blocked the way for the second granddaughter to enter the palace.

Jia's mother had hope for Jia Yuanchun. That's because Jia Yuanchun is already the imperial concubine, if he can give birth to a son, the Jia family is the prince's foreign family; Jia Mu didn't dare to snub Jia Jiu, that was because Jia Jiu himself had a hard fist, and the forces behind him were staggered, so he couldn't be offended.

So, Jia's mother has been oscillating between her two granddaughters.

Although Mrs. Wang's words were tactful, Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang have also been mother-in-law and daughter-in-law for so many years. How do you not know what Madame Wang thinks? Mrs. Wang just hoped that Jia Jiu, Jia Qian, and Jia Qing would go to support Jia Yuanchun, and by the way, let Jia Yuanchun excuse the excuse to give face to the three of them.

Jia Mu thinks. Madame Wang's idea is really stupid.

Not to mention that Jia Yuanchun, the force behind Jia Jiu, can't afford to offend, it's whether Jia Jiu himself is willing to go over or not.

Mother Jia now understands that this granddaughter still looks respectful to herself, but she really has an idea in private. Because of herself, this granddaughter still calls the second daughter-in-law an aunt, but in private, she doesn't communicate with the people on the second child's side.

Mother Jia felt that even if he spoke, this granddaughter would not nod, rather than being bored with herself, it was better to simply do something superfluous.

Thinking like this, Mother Jia paid attention in her heart and said, "On the day when Niangniang was provincial, I naturally wore court clothes. It's just that you are not Mrs. Destiny now, so you have to make two suitable auspicious clothes, and there are three girls, even if it is a concubine, he is also the sister of the mother, and there should be two suitable new clothes, with two sets of bright heads. These are all motherly decencies, you don't have to forget. ”

When Mrs. Wang heard that Jia's mother had promised to come down, she was quite happy at the beginning. But when she heard Jia Mu mention that he was now a concubine, and the charges on his body had not been eliminated, Mrs. Wang's face stiffened again. When Jia Mu mentioned Tanchun again, Mrs. Wang's heart became even more uncomfortable.

Mrs. Wang also came out of the door of the mansion anyway, and she also knew that her daughter-in-law should not talk back to her mother-in-law, so she couldn't help but say: "This matter is still ordered by the old lady, and the daughter-in-law has already ordered it." It's just that on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, all the regulations of Yingjia still have to be confirmed with the palace people, and on that day, how can you let the old and young masters of the whole clan kowtow to Niangniang, so that Niangniang knows that there are still so many talents in the clan. ”

Jia Mu nodded and said, "You can discuss this matter with Dongfu yourself." Or let the second child run to Dongfu to make it. This should have been taken care of by the men outside. We don't have to worry about that. ”

Mrs. Wang said: "Also, on the day of the provincial relatives, where to rest, where to supply, and how to rank, these should also have an arrangement." The rules in the palace are strict, but you can't make jokes. Especially the second girl, who has always been pampered......"

Hearing this, Jia Mu finally couldn't help but speak: "That's it." After all, your eldest brother has set up another door, and since the two families have already split their sects, it is better for them not to go. ……”

"But ......"

Mrs. Wang wanted to say a few words, but under Jia's mother's stern gaze, she had to shut up.

Jia Mu said: "The second family, I know, do you think that the second girl has an identity, and he can give the mother a long face when he goes to greet the mother." However, don't forget that the eldest daughter-in-law is still lying in the house. If the second girl goes to greet the mother, what will the outside think of him? The boss is such a girl, and he has always been a baby, if he makes trouble, do you think they will be the ones who will lose face? You know, they're barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes. Compared to them, Niangniang is the jade bottle! You've got a clear priority first! ”

Mrs. Wang didn't expect that when Jia Yuanchun was about to save his relatives, Jia's mother would treat him so harshly, and she was stunned at that time.

Jia Yuanchun's provincial affairs began to be prepared in this atmosphere, and during this period, because of the day, Princess Changle's return to the palace only caused a small wave among the girls in the big house. For many Shi Xiangyun Tanchun who are not qualified to participate in the draft, they are more concerned about Jia Yuanchun's relatives, because this matter is related to their future, and Princess Changle is just a passerby in their lives.

What Shi Xiangyun thinks is: Although Jia Yuanchun is only Jia Baoyu's sister, he is the imperial concubine, and he has almost half of the right to speak about Jia Baoyu's marriage. If Jia Yuanchun can nod, then his matter with Jia Baoyu will be half done.

In Shi Xiangyun's opinion, he has a little more advantage than Xue Baochai. After all, he is still the daughter of the Shi family, and the Shi family is a double marquis, even if he doesn't have much real power, he is more or less a lord and nobleman's family, but what does Xue Baochai have? The uncle of the common people or the aunt of the common people?

Shi Xiangyun felt that his chances of winning were still relatively large.

Tanchun also maintained an optimistic attitude towards the upcoming provincial relatives. He knows that he will not become an obstacle to this big sister, on the contrary, if he can marry a good family, he can also become a help to this big sister.

A concubine like him is just asking for a good future.

Tanchun sincerely hopes that his eldest sister can help him.

As for Xue Baochai, his heart was also full of torment.

Only Xue Baochai knew how much their Xue family had invested in Jia Yuanchun. To put it mildly, if Jia Yuanchun can't help their Xue family get the imperial signboard, then for a long time in the future, their Xue family will be in a state of collapse.

It can be said that among the five members of the Xue family, Xue Baochai is the most eager for the imperial signboard.

Of course, Xue Baochai also knew very well that if he really became Jia Baoyu's wife, then it would be impossible for Jia Yuanchun not to help him, his brother-in-law. At that time, the imperial merchant signboard was also available. The difference is that at that time, when Jia Yuanchun helped again, he was helping his own family, not because he owed the Xue family, so he had to help the Xue family.

Which one is more beneficial, Xue Baochai knows very well. In the former, the goal is clear, the time required is shorter, and it is easier to achieve. But Xue Baochai knew that if it was just a transaction, Jia Yuanchun might only help him once, and he wouldn't mention it again if he failed. According to the iron law that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, Xue Baochai really doesn't think that this matter can be successful once.

As for the latter, it obviously requires more time to operate and is more risky. After all, Jia Baoyu is still young, and he, Xue Baochai, can't afford to wait. But once Xue Baochai becomes Jia Baoyu's pawn, his reward is also big. Not only is it a matter of this imperial businessman's signboard, but if there are other things in the future, Xue Baochai can also talk to Jia Yuanchun and ask Jia Yuanchun for help.

Because at that time, he Xue Baochai was already Jia Yuanchun's younger daughter-in-law. (To be continued......)
