Adoption and adoptive are two different concepts.
As far as adoption is concerned, there are those who change their surnames and those who do not. is like Lin Daiyu in the original book, he was actually adopted by the Jia family after the death of his parents, but his adoption was with the Lin family's huge family property. It's different when it comes to adoptives. The first element of the adoptive is that if it is a boy, he can only choose objects from the same clan, and the second element is the upper genealogy.
The conditions for the succession are harsh, and the consequences are also harsh. It's like having a son. First of all, you must have no concubines in your family - concubines do not count, concubines are not qualified to inherit the ancestral inheritance, nor are you qualified to continue the clan - after reporting to the government, you can choose a suitable boy from your own clan. However, there are also requirements that the other party and the other party's father, grandfather, great-grandfather and other direct male elders must be descendants. Once the heir comes back, it is the heir of the family, and the wife of the family will add a son to the family in the future. Later, even if the youngest son is your own flesh and blood, and he is a son-in-law, he can only take a little property and his mother's dowry to live privately.
Sadly, some families have not seen their sons land for many years, and often give birth to sons themselves after succeeding other people's children. There are not a few such cases.
Therefore, many families return to their stepdaughters before passing on their step-sons. If the daughter grows up and marries, and no son is born, they will try to have a stepson.
It is much simpler to have a stepdaughter, and the procedures are much simpler. Because it is the daughter-in-law of the family, there are also those who go to the genealogy when they want to marry. But the daughter of the step-by-step. Originally, it must have been from a good family. Moreover, as long as you send someone to the government to find a scribe to deal with the household registration matter. Unlike a step-son. After the succession, you have to invite people from the government to come to the door. Under the witness of the government, write the person into the booklet of his family, and do what property registration will be done in the future, and he will ask the government to come to the door when he separates the family.
Shi Xiangyun is young and doesn't know the severity, and thinks that adoption and adoption are the same, but Xue Baochai knows the article here.
They didn't know that Jia Yu had indeed changed this idea, that is, to put his sister's two granddaughters in the name of his eldest son, who had disappeared. Then I thought about it. Jia Yu still dismissed the idea. Not to mention, this sister of mine is a concubine, not to mention that these two children are posthumous, and her mother is still a businesswoman, and her status is low and she died early. I don't know what their character is. If it's not good, if it comes over early, wouldn't it be a pressure on his daughter and make her daughter unhappy?
It's better to adopt first. If it's really a good one, it's not too late to consider changing your surname and passing on your surname.
Just adoption words. It's much simpler, and if you're a girl, you don't even have to change your name.
It is precisely because the procedures are much simpler that the Zhang sisters came to Jia's house before the flower party. With a small amount of possessions, their grandmother's dowry and their mother's dowry.
The concubine of the Jia family was given 3,000 taels of silver when she married the princess, if the parents cared about this daughter. Add a little more, and then bring the jewelry money they have accumulated over the years. This is the dowry standard for concubines. Although Jia Yu's sister-in-law is Miss Gonghou, there is Jia's mother, a shrewd mother-in-law. There is a younger sister below, how much dowry can I get? In addition, it has been a long time since he got married, and the person died early, that is, the Jia family specially sent someone to find it, and there was not much dowry left that was brought out.
When the Zhang sisters' father got married, their mother had been dead for many years, and the stepmother wished that this cheap son would be gone early and make room for her son, so how could she be willing to find a good family for him? Therefore, the Zhang sisters not only have ruthless cheap grandmothers, but also ruthless uncles and aunts. If it weren't for the Jia family sending someone to pick them up, I don't know where they would have fallen.
Therefore, it is not surprising that one of these two sisters is extremely cowardly, and the other is stubborn to death. Jia Jiu is strange, why is the cowardly one always with an indescribable smell in his gestures, as if he has been taught by everyone's ladies, and he is no stranger to the Jia family. He doesn't squint when he walks, but he doesn't hesitate to turn a corner. It's as if when he just came in, although he didn't raise his eyes, he seemed to know exactly where to go, with a strong sense of purpose.
But his sister, as if she was a country woman entirely, behaved quite vulgarly, completely devoid of her sister's elegance, and thought of being rude in her actions, and her eyes looked around, and if it weren't for his sister's several reminders, he didn't know how many times he would have made a mistake. The distance from the door of the hanging flower to Jia Jiu's house was not long, but Jia Jiu still saw him secretly looking at himself several times, and his eyes were very strange.
Of course, his sister looked at him strangely.
Jia Jiu entertained them in her own hall, and the elder sister sat down very softly. Smile without showing your teeth and showing your feet, this person named Zhang Qian is really beautiful, as if she was born with it. I was a younger sister, and I found that it was time to sit down, so I clumsily learned from my sister's appearance, but I forgot that half of the embroidered shoes under my feet were exposed.
Taking advantage of the little girl's tea, Jia Jiu secretly exchanged information with his little butler.
[Please pay 1,000 cents for the purchase of intelligence.] 】
[Rub, a thousand points? It's just such a small thing, and it costs a thousand? Are you robbing? No need to talk. I might as well ask around on my own, and I can train my intelligence-gathering skills. 】
Jia Jiu was very unhappy and dragged the little butler aside, and said to the two sisters sitting under him with a smile: "Sister Qian, Sister Qing, are you all smooth on the road?" ”
Seeing that Zhang Qian, she got up and replied, "If you go back to your aunt, we came by boat." On the way, I met the grain ship of the government, and in order to make way for the grain ship, I was delayed in Hebi for a little time. Later, it was smooth and smooth. ”
Jia Jiu said: "The official grain ship? Is there any action in the imperial court? Now is not the time to harvest the autumn grain. Even if the summer grain is harvested, it is not sent to Beijing at this time. ”
That Zhang Qian said meekly: "I heard that the grain was not transported into Beijing, but out of Beijing." ”
"I see." Jia Jiu smiled: "Although it is the first time we have met. But looking at the real face, it's like an old acquaintance. In the end, it is a serious relative. It's just that they've never met, and the family is flesh and blood. It's always alike. ”
Jia Jiu said this to be a temptation, but he saw that the two sisters were really touched. The lower eyebrows of the elder sister were obedient, and there seemed to be nothing abnormal, but the tassel hanging from the hairpin on his head was shaking; The younger sister showed a look of surprise and inexplicable affection.
At this time, Xiaohong walked in with two girls and said, "Girl, the old lady said that the two cousins came from afar, and they were already very tired. There is no need to go over today to say goodbye. It's the same if you go again tomorrow. The old lady also gave two girls to the two cousins. ”
Jia Jiu looked up and saw it, who were the two tortoiseshell and Liuli?
Jia Jiu said: "The two nieces and nephews are blessed, they entered the eyes of the old lady as soon as they came." The old lady is the most proficient in training people, and these two girls turned out to be second-class girls in the old lady's house, and they couldn't be more careful. The nieces and nephews can call them with confidence. ”
Zhang Qian and Zhang Qing both got up to express their gratitude to Jia's mother. Tortoiseshell and Liuli kowtowed to the two young ladies of the table, which can be regarded as seeing the new master.
After each sat down, Zhang Qing said, "Don't we have to say hello to our wife?" ”
Jia Jiu said: "My niece has a heart. Come with me. ”
As he spoke, Jia Jiu took the lead and walked out, and the Zhang sisters glanced at each other. Hurry up and keep up. Now, Jia Yu has not moved, Mrs. Xing is still living in the main house in this courtyard, and Wang Shanbao's family is directing the little girls to clean up the broken porcelain. Seeing Jia Jiu coming, he hurriedly saluted Jia Jiu: "Why is the girl here now?" ”
Jia Jiu said: "The nieces and nephews have just arrived, and I brought them to greet my mother. Is Mother feeling better today? ”
Wang Shanbao's eyes were wiped. said: "Mrs. is still like that. ”
"Can my mother eat today?"
Wang Shanbao's family said: "The girl boiled the river fresh porridge, and the wife ate a small half bowl today." It's this milk. The wife only ate a few bites and couldn't eat anymore. The slave didn't know what to do. ”
Jia Jiu said: "When did my mother eat river fresh porridge?" ”
"It's morning."
"Let the kitchen bring another bowl of milk. I feed my mother. ”
"Yes."
Wang Shanbao wiped his eyes and hurriedly went down. Jia Jiu walked into Mrs. Xing's bed. said: "In the first half of the year, my mother had a cold because of an accident but was manipulated in the medicine, so she could only lie down like this. Since you are here, give your mother a blessing. Those who are seriously ill will not be able to receive great gifts. ”
Zhang Qian and Zhang Qing sisters really said good luck and stood on the side. Jia Jiu's eyes were sharp, seeing that Zhang Qian's eyes were slightly red, he had a number in his heart, but his face was silent, as in the past, he massaged Mrs. Xing's body, and continued to use spiritual healing skills on Mrs. Xing. Jia Jiu knew very well that Mrs. Xing's body had actually been damaged by the drug, not only the nerves were paralyzed by the aconitum head, but even the muscles in her body tended to fail because of the relationship between the drug and the lack of exercise. If it weren't for the porridge and milk feeding every day, if it weren't for Jia Jiu giving him spiritual treatment every day, he would have lost weight to a handful of bones a long time ago, instead of now, it would be like falling asleep.
After a while, Wang Shanbao's family personally brought a bowl of milk. Jia Jiu fed Mrs. Xing little by little with a spoon, which made Wang Shanbao's family let go of Mrs. Xing, let Mrs. Xing lie down, and gave Mrs. Xing a massage.
When they left Mrs. Xing's house, the Zhang sisters didn't look good. Zhang Qian's eyes were red, and Zhang Qing was also very uncomfortable, until Jinxiu came to find Jia Jiu with Jia Cong, and the two of them reacted.
Zhang Qingdao: "Don't we say hello to the second wife?" ”
Jia Jiu said: "Second wife? Oh, you're talking about Auntie. It doesn't look like anyone is telling you anything about this house. My father and second uncle have already separated, and not only that, but our family has also gone out separately. In other words, the second uncle's household registration is in Dongfu, and he is considered a person from Dongfu, but he only lives in our house because of the old lady, and he is considered a guest of the family. In addition, the second uncle's wife and sister's family also live here. These things, you can ask the tortoiseshell and the glass to know. Now I'll take you to your house. If you don't like anything, just tell me and ask them to change it now. ”
Zhang Qingdao: "I don't know if when the second master's wife and sister's family entered the house, did they go through the gate or the side door?" ”
Jia Jiu glanced at him with a smile and said, "The Xue family is just a merchant, where is the qualification to go through the side door." That's too much to take the ancestors of our Jia family in mind. They are not even qualified to go through the side door, they are going through the back door. That's it, I'll say more here. Even though they are all guests, and even though their family is rich, if you don't like it, you don't have to get too close to him. If you think he's okay, and he comes to play with you, you nod your head; If you don't like his style, just play with your aunts by yourself, and don't worry too much. You are a serious cousin, and you were sent by your father to bring you in, and you are a righteous master. You know what? ”
Zhang Qingdao: "Then can I ask about my monthly money?" ”
Jia Jiu glanced at him with appreciation, and said, "If you don't ask, I will sue you too." There are two types of girls in our family, one is to participate in the draft, so this example is a little higher. For example, before the eldest sister entered the palace, there was also me, and they all took ten taels of monthly money, ten taels of fat powder money, and the clothes and jewelry of the four seasons had additional subsidies. Like the third sister, who doesn't need to be drafted, she gets two taels of monthly money, two taels of fat powder money, and a set of jewelry every quarter. There are a number of them. Don't be too loose on your money, knowing that the money will be part of your dowry in the future. So, keep an eye on it, and don't let the minions below steal it. ”
As soon as Jia Jiu's words fell, the elder sister's face turned red, but it was the younger sister, and her eyes lit up and nodded: "I originally thought that a noble person like my aunt would not mention such a thing." ”
Jia Jiu said with a smile: "This matter is not big, but it is not small." Girls like us will always marry in the future and be the head of the house. If you don't even know this, wouldn't it really be up to someone else to handle it? Although money is vulgar, it is necessary for people's livelihood. Don't say that you and I are the prime ministers of a country, and we are busy working all day long, either promoting good ministers for the country, or busy cooking mundane things such as rice, salt, tea, horse wine, etc. Blindly pursuing elegance and highlighting one's own uniqueness is a vulgar person. ”
Zhang Qing clapped his hands and smiled: "That's exactly what I said." Sister, if you tell me that this can't be that again, I will definitely let you think about what your aunt told me. Auntie, you're very different from what I thought. ”
