Chapter 328: Refusal
In Huifang Garden, You Shi stood in front of the corner gate leading to the Grand View Garden, looking at the direction Jia Baoyu had left, and did not move.
"Grandma, what are you looking at?"
Yinpan stepped forward to help You Shi and brought her back to her senses.
"Nothing." You Shi sighed imperceptibly, and turned around with the hand of the silver plate.
"Does the eldest grandmother want Second Master Bao to come over and inherit our Ning Guofu in the future?"
Hearing Yindi's whispered question, You Shi's eyes immediately sharpened and glanced at her. However, when he saw the silver saucer, he was immediately afraid, and he was relieved.
Yes, Ningguo Mansion suddenly changed dramatically, Jia Jing and Jia Zhen died, Jia Rong was taken away by the Jinyi Army, and the future is really uncertain.
It's no wonder that a maid is thinking about these things.
She shook her head: "What I think doesn't matter at all, when will this kind of big thing be my wife's family to call the shots?" It's all up to the old men of the clan. Besides, Second Master Bao, he ......"
You Shi said, and couldn't help but glance back again.
Yindi is one of You's henchmen, and he knows her mind best, so he said: "Actually, the reason why the lord of Xifu and the second master of Bao did not agree was that he was unwilling to lower his seniority, and the eldest grandmother could propose to the old lady over there that the second master of Bao should recognize the old master as his father and be the same generation as the uncle, so that would be fine." The eldest grandmother thought, with the current situation, although Bao Er Ye can inherit the family property over there in the future, but the title must be Lian Er Ye's, there are already two titles in the family, no matter how powerful Bao Er Ye is, he will not get the third title in the future, so if Bao Er Ye wants to attack the lord, he can only come to our side. ”
You Shi paused and suddenly said, "Where did you hear these words?" ”
"Hehe, I listened to what the housekeeper and the housekeeper grandmother at home said, they all said that last year, the second master of Bao went south to provide disaster relief and made great contributions, and he could have been knighted, but because there were already two lords in the family, the court gave the high-ranking officials Houlu!"
The silver disc is a matter of course. There are many people in the two prefectures, and their mouths are also mixed, and everything is easy to spread, and as a powerful maid by You Shi's side, it is not surprising to hear these gossip news.
You Shi listened and took the words to heart. Although she didn't know much about the doorways in the court, she also understood when she heard the silver plate.
There is a hereditary title in the family, which naturally has a great honor, but there are gains and losses, and for the children of the side branches, the starting point is high and there is also a certain amount of suppression.
Everything is centered on the family heir, and everyone else can only become vassals. This is to preserve the integrity of orthodoxy and the core interests of the family.
It's just that Jia Jiarong's Mansion is a little exceptional, and now, it is no longer clear who is the heir between Jia Yu and Jia Zheng, and both sides have their own reliance, maintaining balance, and they dare not turn their faces.
Merely......
"It's as simple as you think." You shook his head and sighed.
Jia Baoyu is the treasure of Rongguo Mansion, from Jia's mother to Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang, who is willing to give up Jia Baoyu? In addition, she knows Jia Baoyu quite well, and knows that the other party is a very confident ...... It can even be said that he is a conceited person, I am afraid that he will not be willing to come to Ning Guofu.
"Is it really impossible?" The silver disc looks a pity, a pity. If it was really someone from a side room who came to inherit Ning Guofu in the future, she didn't believe that the other party would really be good to their grandmother. If the You family is not doing well, the future of these maids around them can also be imagined.
Is it really impossible? You Shi also thought in his heart.
The master and servant walked slowly back to the courtyard of the master mother, looking at the courtyard that suddenly seemed empty, You Shi suddenly remembered something, and said to Yindi: "Wait a minute, you will find Mother Liu, let her personally set the carriage, go to You's house, and take the old lady and my two younger sisters." ”
There is no doubt about the silver plate. Also, at this time, the eldest grandmother was helpless in the house, and there were two mothers' families watching, and it was better in the end.
She didn't think deeply, so she naturally didn't know what her grandmother was thinking.
......
Ningguofu was in chaos, but Rongguofu and Daguanyuan were relatively calm.
However, this calm is only superficial. The affairs of Ning Guofu are the affairs of the Jia family, and three important people have died in Ning Guofu one after another, and it is unlikely that the Jia family wants to be calm.
When Jia Baoyu returned to Yihong Courtyard, everyone, including Baochai, was waiting here.
They are all boudoir girls, and it is not good to go to Ningguo Mansion casually, so the news that can be heard until now comes from the mouths of the mothers-in-law.
They were desperate to get reliable news from Jia Baoyu.
In addition, Xichun is Jia Jing's biological daughter, although she has no impression of Jia Jing, but she still looks very sad.
After Jia Baoyu briefly told them about Ning Guofu, he comforted Xichun again. However, Xichun didn't say it, and Jia Baoyu didn't mean to let her go to Ning Guofu.
Jia Jing is dead, and it is appropriate to cherish the spring and fulfill filial piety. However, now that everything in Ning Guofu is messy, Xichun must fulfill his filial piety, and when Jia Jing's body is transported back and put into the coffin, it is not too late to go over when it is time to wake the spirit.
Later, Jia's mother sent someone to call him to Rongqing Hall, and Jia Baoyu said goodbye to his sisters.
When I came out of the garden to Rongqing Hall, I saw Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang.
After Jia Baoyu bowed her waist in turn, Jia Mu smiled and said, "Okay, don't bow down, the injury is not good, so I can't bear it, so I ran over there to do something." ”
Jia Baoyu just smiled, and responded to a few questions from Jia's mother, and suddenly heard Jia's mother say: "I heard that Rong'er was captured by the Jinyi Army, do you know what's going on?" ”
"I don't know, but this kind of thing will become clear in a few days, and the ancestor doesn't have to worry too much."
Jia Mu nodded, it seemed that the focus was not on this, she looked at Jia Baoyu again and said: "Your eldest brother Zhen and Uncle Jing have gone, and Brother Rong is also an uncompetitive person, in the future, this Ning Guofu, I think it will be difficult." ”
Jia Mu's voice sighed, as if she was worried about the future of Ning Guofu.
Jia Baoyu smiled and said: "This old ancestor doesn't have to worry, although Brother Zhen is gone, there is still Brother Rong." Even if Brother Rong is not angry and really does something rebellious, there are still so many people in our Jia family's grass generation, there are always two slightly successful ones, and when the time comes, they will be given to Brother Zhen's name and inherit the ancestral inheritance. ”
Hearing this, Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang looked at him at the same time, and Mrs. Wang seemed to have something to say but was looked at by Jia Mu, and then Jia Mu said: "Baoyu, haven't you thought about picking up the burden of Dongfu when the family suffers such a change?" ”
Jia Baoyu also looked at Jia's mother, suddenly walked up to her and held her arm, and said coquettishly: "What, the old ancestor is tired of me and wants to drive me over there?" ”
Jia Mu suddenly laughed, patted the back of Jia Baoyu's hand and shouted, "good grandson" and "good Baoyu".
Mrs. Wang couldn't help but interject anymore: "Baoyu, you are also a scholar, haven't you heard of the term Jian Yao?" ”
Although Mother Jia felt that Mrs. Wang was a little more anxious, she didn't blame her, and turned to look at Jia Baoyu, she also wanted to know what her baby grandson was thinking.
The smile on Jia Baoyu's face suddenly stopped.
Hearing the word Jianyu, Jia Baoyu's first thought was not the family business of Ning Guofu, nor the title, but it seemed that he could have an extra wife......
Yes, with two rooms, isn't it possible to have one more wife?
Not being able to give Baochai Daiyu the title of wife is something that Jia Baoyu has always felt indebted in her heart, and if it is according to Mrs. Wang's meaning, it can be regarded as a solution to part of the urgent need.
It's just that this idea only turned around for a while, and it was still abandoned by him.
There's no way, his heart is too big, there are a lot of problems, and he is not a bad wife alone......
If he was married to Ye Zhenzhen, he would definitely be happy to promote this matter, let Baochai and Daiyu become concubines, and he would be concubines himself.
But now, Ye Zhenzhen has taken up the status of a wife, even if he also has the inheritance of Ning Guofu, he will only have the status of a wife.
It's better not to have it at all!
If not, Baochai and Daiyu can still get along safely, if there is such a thing suddenly, I am afraid that the two of them will become fire and water in an instant. The key is that it is more difficult to be caught in the middle, giving Baochai grievances to Daiyu, giving Daiyu, and wronging Baochai......
Thinking of this, Jia Baoyu had already made a decision, he took the arms of Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang, and said, "I know that the ancestor and the wife are all thinking about Baoyu and want me to have an extra hereditary title.
It's just that it's not good to do that.
The term "Kane" has always been between brothers, and when one of them has no heirs, the compromise method adopted for the sake of inheritance is not a glorious thing, this is one.
Secondly, Brother Zhen has Rong'er under his knees, aside from Rong'er, there are so many younger generations in the fifth generation of our Jia family, which one can't be inherited under Brother Zhen's name? But when I went to recognize my eldest brother, it seemed too powerful, and when I spread it, others would look down on me, thinking that my grandson was a mercenary person who disregarded the legal principles of family affection. ”
Jia Baoyu said seriously, because he knew that with the influence of Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang, if they had this idea, there was a chance that they would be able to give him a successful operation!
To the Jia family, Mother Jia is an authority and an insurmountable mountain, and no one dares to disobey her will.
Mrs. Wang is the head of Rongguo Mansion, and she is also the biological mother of the concubine, and her influence is also huge.
Coupled with his Jia Baoyu's own soft and hard power, if he wants to rob Ning Guofu, no one will stop him, at most, he will just talk behind his back.
