Shenjing City, Rongguo Mansion.

East Road Yard.

Yesterday, Jia Zhen's coffin was finally sent out of the city and placed in the Jia family temple of Tiejian Temple, and the funeral finally came to an end.

After working for so long, Jia Yu only felt that his bones were about to fall apart.

Despite this, this time, Jia Yu persevered, except for looking for a few lazy children in the clan when he was extremely tired and scolding him.

From the beginning to the end of the funeral, he always came forward.

Compared with Jia Zhen's pro-Laozi Jia Jing, who only cares about a group of Taoist monks and monks, this time Jia Yu's image is simply radiant.

However, Jia Yu knew in his heart that he was working so hard, naturally not for a good reputation......

Sitting on a black lacquer painted gold back chair, next to him is a sour branch wood carved inlaid stone octagonal table, in front of the two beautiful maids squatting, gently pinching the feet for Jia Yu, and he himself, holding a copper unicorn incense burner, carefully studied for a while, put it on the octagonal table, and picked up another beast ear gilt incense burner, satisfied with the head.

It's just that although he likes incense burners, he loves fans even more.

On the octagonal table, there are three fans, Jia Yu put the beast ear gilt incense burner aside, and carefully picked up one of them, opened it to see, it was actually a gold silk moose bamboo fan.

"Good!"

Jia Yu rewarded the hard work of a cup of tea before opening the second one, which was better than the first one, and it was a golden beauty ivory handle palace fan.

Looking at the beauty on the fan, Jia Yu nodded again and again, admiring.

This time, after a pillar of incense, I opened the last one, which was half of the transparent Thornwood Chrysanthemum Light Luo Ling Fan.

"Good thing, good baby!"

Jia Yu was overjoyed, and after rewarding the stubborn for a long time, he waved his hand and let the beautiful maid who pinched his feet go down.

He walked to the side of a soft couch, reclined on the brocade on the couch, and changed two beautiful maids to beat his legs with a beauty hammer.

It's just that, despite such enjoyment, Jia Yu is worried.

Mrs. Xing, who was carrying a bowl of ginseng soup and tea, came over, and when she saw that his face was not open, she immediately taught the two beautiful maids: "I am waiting, I dare not be undedicated, I can't beat you two!" ”

The two beautiful maids' faces were pale, Jia Yu said "eh", and after letting the two go down, he said to Mrs. Xing: "It has nothing to do with them...... I'm worried about which heir should I let go of the East Mansion. This one and two, both of them are filial piety, and they are not bad. ”

Mrs. Xing said with a smile: "Although Jia Yan is also a serious Ningguo, he is forty years old, and even his grandson is about to have it, and he still has this heart?" ”

Jia Yu sneered and said, "Woman's opinion! Such a family business in Dongfu, let alone forty, is seventy or eighty, and it can be rich for several lifetimes! ”

When Mrs. Xing heard this, her heart moved, and she looked at Jia Yu and said, "The master is more knowledgeable than me, this is the wealth of a national mansion!" Then they only give away this idea, which is not filial piety. ”

The East Mansion is not like the West Mansion, there is no old lady who favors the younger son, and the silver money Zhuangzi of the entire Guogong Mansion belongs to one person.

Counting it, inheriting that side, it is more comfortable than Jia Yu.

Even if it is a few incense burners and a few folding fans, what is it worth?

Seeing Jia Yu's noncommittal "hmm", Mrs. Xing smiled and said, "Why don't you wait, master, there will be more to boil them." ”

Jia Yu frowned and said, "Boil, naturally you have to boil it again." However, it is important to stay up to which step. ”

Mrs. Xing didn't understand, and said, "How far to survive, isn't it up to the master to decide?" The eldest lord of Dongfu didn't care about anything, and he ignored his son after he died and sent it to the family temple, and continued to repair his avenue. This Dongfu, isn't it the master who has the final say? ”

Jia Yu shook his head and said, "What do you know? Now I'm not defending against the big man of Dongfu, it's the evil obstacle in Yangzhou! ”

Seeing him gritting her teeth, Mrs. Xing said curiously: "What does it have to do with that little beast?" ”

Jia Yu said angrily: "The hair is long, and the knowledge is short. People like us inherit the title, do you think it's like a rural clan, and after several clan elders in the family have discussed, the son of the clan can be the patriarch? If it is under the Bofu, it will be repaid, and the Ministry of Rites will be able to agree. Above the Kebo Mansion, the descendants inherit the heirs, which must be examined by the Zongren Mansion. Now that beast is registered with the Emperor and the Emperor, if he really survives until he comes back, it's hard to say whether what I said counts or not. ”

Mrs. Xing was startled when she heard this, and said, "Then it's worth it?" That beast was a seed of unfilial piety before he was born, and if he really got it, he would pay it back in the future? ”

Jia Yu looked at his stupid wife and didn't have a temper, but he also satisfied his sense of superiority in IQ, and explained to this stupid woman: "What a foolish thing! Without a knighthood as a halter, that brute dared to go wild. If he really has a title and family business, no matter how much he dares to disrespect his elders, he has to sue him for being exiled for 3,000 miles! ”

"Then why not ......"

Mrs. Xing was immediately moved when she heard this, but she didn't say anything stupid about giving Ning Guofu to Jia Qiang.

Otherwise, I'm afraid Jia Yu will have to do it.

Looking at Jia Yu's cannibalistic gaze, Mrs. Xing smiled and said, "For such a big matter, it is still up to the master to make up his own mind." ”

Jia Yu snorted, stroked his beard and said: "Jia Ling, although he is also obedient, he is not as kind as Jia Ling." Jia Yi saw me before, how could he be blessed with such a big family business as Dongfu? I have to give most of it to honor me. Such filial children are rare. ”

When Mrs. Xing heard this, her eyes turned red.

There is a huge Ningguo Mansion, if it is really divided into half to the big house, then it will be ......

Thinking of this, Mrs. Xing became short of breath......

……

Rongguo Mansion, West Road Courtyard.

Big Flower Hall.

Mother Jia was crooked on the soft couch, and the mandarin duck was also holding a beauty hammer and gently beating her legs.

On the side of the soft couch, Mrs. Wang sat there, smiling, like a bodhisattva.

It's just that it always makes people feel less angry.

However, Jia Mu didn't care about these at this time, holding a letter in her hand, her brows furrowed a little, and said: "The palace should have spread the good news a long time ago, but this incident happened in the East Mansion, which is really unlucky." The eldest girl wrote to say that she had heard about Brother Qiang in the palace, and her loyalty and filial piety were commendable. What is this? ”

For Jia Qiang, Jia's mother didn't even have the slightest good impression in her heart.

In her concept, don't say it's Jia Qiang, that is, Baoyu dares to talk back and even scold people in front of her in front of adults, and she should be dragged down and beaten half to death to teach the rules of life.

coaxed him before, but it was just temporary patience and taking care of the overall situation for the big things in the palace.

But I don't want to, I want to take care of everything to this point, and even Dongfu has to give it to him?

How is this possible?

Mrs. Wang sighed: "This must not be the eldest girl's own intention, she has never even seen Brother Qiang, and if she wants to come, it is still the meaning of the palace." ”

It's even more terrifying.

Jia Mu said helplessly: "It must be that evil obstacle said that in the Drunken Immortal Tower last time, and it entered the heart of the emperor, so there is so much grace." It is not an exaggeration to say that the grace of heaven is vast, and I don't know how that evil obstacle is so great. ”

Mrs. Wang hesitated, but still said: "I heard Baoyu and his uncle say that Brother Qiang helped his sister-in-law do a lot of things in Yangzhou Mansion, and he won the emperor's heart. On the sister-in-law's side, she also accepted him as a disciple. Previously, because of Brother Qiang, the world-famous Banshan Gong had to go out of Beijing, but when he arrived in Jiangnan, his sister-in-law personally came forward to resolve the grievances between the Governor of Liangjiang and Brother Qiang. The sister-in-law's ancestor was the fourth prince, for the sake of the heavenly family, first lost his son-in-law, and then died his wife, regardless of merit, this hard work alone is enough for the son of heaven to descend all kinds of holy families. Brother Qiang is valued by her sister-in-law, and she can't say that the heavenly family is giving grace because of this. ”

Mother Jia was even more unhappy when she heard this, sat up, frowned and said, "Is this serious?" How can this be true? In terms of intimacy, the evil obstacle and the uncle have already gone out of the five suits. And at home, it was Baoyu and the sisters who accompanied Yu'er to play naughtily, so he let him run to Yangzhou, which became his credit? Even if it hurts, it should hurt Baoyu! ”

Mrs. Wang smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Qiang'er, that kid ...... The old lady has also seen it. Unlike ordinary children, he is a scheming ......."

"What kind of ordinary child?"

Jia Mu interrupted: "He is different from the serious sons, he has no father and mother's upbringing, and he is very wild!" I understood that he must have gone to Southern Province and coaxed them with clever words in front of Yu'er and her father. What a bastard! After a pause, he scolded again: "Lian'er's little beast is useless, others don't know what kind of virtue Brother Qiang is, doesn't he know either?" I don't know if I made it clear in front of his uncle! ”

Mrs. Wang lowered her eyes and said softly: "If Lian'er says it, it may not be useful." I just don't understand, the eldest girl herself should explain it to her sister-in-law. Since she came to our house, the old lady has hurt her more than Baoyu, and the sisters have let her ...... everywhere."

She is a mother, and every time she looks at Baoyu and Daiyu arguing, she looks like she is bowing down and making small compensation, and she is still extremely uncomfortable.

But I don't want to, I have suffered so many grievances and lost so many small things, and in the end, Jia Qiang can give the benefits.

When Mother Jia heard this, her face sank, and she said: "Yu'er must have told her uncle all this, but she is also a child, and she only knows that it was Brother Qiang who invited a Western monk to save her father, so she wanted her father to repay her kindness." Now that the report is over, when she comes back, she will also be able to love Baoyu well. Otherwise, I don't follow either. I can say this, she is an aunt, don't say more. It's a pity that she lost her mother early, and the Jia family is her mother. You should love her more. ”

Mrs. Wang's heart was like eating a handful of flies, but she still smiled and said, "This is as it should be, the old lady can rest assured." ”

Mother Jia has stayed in the inner house all her life, so naturally she will not understand Mrs. Wang's thoughts, and she can't bear to criticize Mrs. Wang too harshly, she thought about it and said: "Girl Feng told me that after her Aunt Lin enters Beijing, most of them will continue to be a string and support a main room, and there is no reason to be an old widower for a lifetime." also talked about the dowry left by Yu'er and her mother...... I didn't want to pay attention to it, but when I think about it, what she said didn't make sense. Looking back, if the Lin family really wants to add another wife, take the dowry back first, and you can keep it for Yu'er for the time being. ”

As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Wang was stunned, but then she didn't know whether it was bitter or sweet.

Back then, when Jia Min got married, she had already married into Jiafu, and seeing the beloved daughter of the Duke of Guo marrying Xinke Tanhualang, the battle was so big that even the golden branches and jade leaves were difficult to reach, which made her, the second lady of the Wang family, so jealous.

But I don't want to, now Jia Min has already died, leaving only an orphan girl, and the dowry that made her envied back then is actually going to fall into her hands.

It's just that......

Why didn't she understand another layer of deep meaning in Jia Mu's move?

However, she was absolutely unwilling to let that sick seedling fox Meizi be her daughter-in-law.

The dowry can be kept, but people, but they can't!
