Chapter 219: The Way of the Imperial Husband
Jia's mother went to the room in Rongguo Mansion, and after Lu Jing left, several people gossiped for a while, and Jia's mother said that she was tired, so she asked Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang to receive Mrs. Wang's family, leaving Daiyu alone to say something considerate.
After everyone left, Jia Mu sent Amber and Parrot out, leaving only the Mandarin Duck to wait.
Mother Jia leaned on the kang and leaned on the pillow of Boluoma, and asked with concern: "Your husband can be kind to you?" ”
When Daiyu heard this, her face was full of smiles and said: "Grandmother, don't worry, my husband is very good to me, he is obedient, everything is according to my thoughts, and I have not been wronged at all." ”
Mother Jia saw that her face was filled with a smile that could not be concealed, so she knew that she was doing well, nodded reassuringly, and then smiled: "It's good that you haven't been wronged, this day husband and wife, a hundred generations of marriage, a thousand years of cultivation to cross the same boat, a hundred years of cultivation to sleep together, if you want to be a husband and wife, you need a thousand years of fate, you must cherish it, the husband and wife are still harmonious and beautiful." ”
Daiyu nodded with a smile and said, "What my grandmother said is that the hundred-year-old couple is the front edge, and the providence is ingenious. Try to look at the world, birds, fish, grass and trees, each has its own success, since the fate will meet, Daiyu will cherish it, even if there is occasional argument, it is all a joke. ”
Mother Jia saw that Daiyu still maintained a simple and honest temperament, so she smiled and said: "That's very good, as the saying goes, it's not that enemies don't get together, even if you talk for a while, don't hurt your feelings, I see that your temperament hasn't changed at all after marriage, this is very good, even if you experience the warmth and coldness of the world in the future, don't lose your nature, the more stable and capable men are, the more honest they like to be honest, if you really have a steady temperament, how can you have a little fun in life." ”
After hearing this, Daiyu nodded with a smile, even if her grandmother didn't explain, she wouldn't change, let the wind and rain wash her beauty, stick to her heart like a lotus, don't cater to the world, don't contaminate the dust, and always be the same. But if it's for the sake of his husband, he will become what he likes.
Thinking of this, I envy my grandmother, who has been polished by the world in recent years, and her life has been sharpened, and she is still like a girl, and her life is both comfortable and interesting.
Jia Mu continued to ask, "You might be in charge at home?" Has anyone stumbled you in the back and didn't listen to you? ”
Daiyu shook her head and said: "Grandmother doesn't have to worry, my husband will hand over all the affairs of the family to me, the rules of the family are very strict, and no one dares to disobey me, but I am in charge of so many things, sometimes I am afraid that I will make jokes if I can't manage it." ”
Mother Jia comforted: "Housekeepers are all trained step by step, no one is born with it, I was also trembling when I married into the Rong Mansion, I was afraid that I would not be able to manage the house, it would be good to have a few more years of experience and experience, you see that Feng Yatou is such a powerful person, and now it is inevitable that there will be mistakes, Zijuan and Qingwen, the two girls are not lacking in loyalty, you also use them more, you see that Feng Yatou has a Ping'er by her side, how much worry you have saved." ”
"Zijuan and Qingwen are now by my side and have helped me share a lot of things." Daiyu nodded and said, although her grandmother's words were biased, she did not refute it, nor did she speculate too much about her grandmother's thoughts.
Jia Mu nodded and continued to ask: "You used to be delicate, and you were not cold tolerant in winter, but now your body is well-nourished?" ”
"Grandmother Lao asked, since I returned to Yangzhou that year, my husband found an excellent doctor and cured me, I was guilty of a few times the year before last, and I was cured last year, only twice in spring and autumn, and I haven't done it again this year." Daiyu said with a smile and hid the fact that her condition worsened due to eating ginseng to raise Rong pills.
Mother Jia smiled when she heard this: "It's good to take care of your body, so that you can also spread the branches and leaves for your husband's family, since you got married, I am most worried about your body, a woman must have an heir to gain a foothold in her husband's family after all." ”
After hearing this, Daiyu said a little shyly: "My husband said that I will raise my body for another two years, and then think about the heir." ”
Mother Jia nodded and said: "Well, he knows that it's good to take care of your body, and I'll give you a few prescriptions for recuperation later, you take it back and keep it first, don't be like your mother, because of your weak body, it has been difficult for the heir." ”
Daiyu was moved by these words, and thought that she would occasionally have similar worries on weekdays, so she hurriedly bowed her head.
Jia Mu persuaded a little and continued to ask: "Can he accept a concubine?" ”
Daiyu nodded and said, "There is a girl who has a room, but she has not yet raised her identity. ”
Jia Mu sighed, worried that Daiyu would not be able to see it, so she persuaded her: "Women have been like this all their lives, and these things can't be prevented, how can a man not steal a fishy cat, especially a learned person, the easier it is to pity Xiangyu and make a romantic affair, you should be more careful not to let him make any concubines." ”
After thinking about it, he said: "Don't take those concubines to heart, just treat them as maids, set up more rules for them, and those who don't know the height of the sky and the thickness of the province will have other thoughts." ”
Daiyu nodded, thought about it and defended Lu Jing again: "My grandmother misunderstood her husband, he is different from others, he has always put his mind on me, never messing with flowers and grass everywhere, and not showing mercy everywhere. ”
Mother Jia shook her head and sighed that Daiyu's mind was too simple, afraid that she would suffer a loss in this regard, so she reminded in a tone of a person who came over: "You just got married, he is naturally in love with you, you see that Lian'er and Sister Feng were also affectionate when they first got married, Lian'er obeyed Feng Yatou's words, and now no one is in the house to take it." ”
Daiyu smiled, believing that her husband would not do such a thing.
Seeing that Daiyu didn't believe it and didn't continue to persuade her, Jia Mu said with a smile: "I'm not saying that your husband's is not, it's just to remind you that you will suffer a loss when the time comes, and some things should be prevented or prevented, if you indulge him, the more bold he will be, and he will be lawless!" ”
"It's not necessarily a bad thing to be a little jealous, let him know what you think of him, if it's too much, he will suspect that you don't have him in your heart, and it hurts your feelings."
"Daiyu understands what her grandmother means, and she will pay attention to this matter." Daiyu nodded, but she still believed in her husband's character.
Jia's mother then taught Daiyu some methods of imperial husbands and concubines, and taught Daiyu how to deal with concubines, concubines, and concubines.
Although Daiyu felt that she couldn't use it, she didn't want to brush off her grandmother's kindness, so she listened attentively, and when she heard the means of dealing with the concubine, she couldn't help but remember that the people in the house had said that her mother had four sisters, but there were no brothers, so she didn't dare to think about it anymore.
Mother Jia said and remembered the things when she was young, and said with emotion: "Although I don't know much poetry, I have a few words that I have always remembered, it was because of your grandfather's concubine, I went back to my mother's house to cry, my mother advised me, the grass in front of the building is green every year, green like a robe when you go, the robe should be old, and the color is not long." I am afraid of spring in the mirror, it is not as good as new flowers and plants. ”
"As the old saying goes, people are not as good as new, clothes are not as good as the old, the new people usher in the old people abandon, the lotus flower in the palm of the eye thorns, if you want to deal with this matter, you need to use some means, as the saying goes: the wife is not as good as the concubine, the concubine is not as good as the maid, the maid is not as good as the prostitute, the prostitute is not as good as stealing, and it is better to steal than to steal. This man is like a cow, the tighter you tie him with a rope, the more he wants to break free, he always feels that the house flowers are not as fragrant as the wild flowers, you should untie the rope for him properly, let him go out to eat some grass, let him know that it is better to be at home. ”
Speaking of this, he continued: "A few of your dowry maids, send them out when they should be sent, but you must also leave one or two who are loyal to you and put them in the room, help you to keep his heart, and he can turn to you when there is something." ”
Daiyu couldn't help but fall into deep thought when she heard the meaning of her grandmother's words here, Zijuan is also old, it is time to consider her destination, but she doesn't know her wishes, and her heart is a little complicated when she thinks of this.
Seeing that her grandmother wanted to continue to talk about these things, she hurriedly changed the topic and said, "Grandmother, Daiyu doesn't know what to say about it?" ”
Jia Mu smiled: "Why did you get separated from me, if you have anything to say, just say it." ”
After thinking about it for a while, Daiyu decided to remind her grandmother of the situation of the Jia family, and said: "Although I left the house, I also noticed that the house has not been as good as before in the past few years, why didn't my grandmother help Sister Linfeng preside over the family affairs?" ”
Jia Mu shook her head and sighed: "I'm old, I can't hold it with a little effort, and I can't do anything about the housekeeper, first your second uncle and mother are the housekeeper these years, and now they are the Feng girl's housekeeper, they use people who are handy, and I may not be able to keep it, not to mention that I want to intervene to make it more difficult for Feng Yatou to do, and also make them all bear the infamy of unfilial piety." ”
After hearing this, Daiyu immediately understood that her grandmother was not unaware of the crisis of the Jia family, but she was powerless, and she was worried about Sister Feng and others, so she continued to ask: "Why didn't grandmother save it before that?" ”
Mother Jia thought about it and sighed: "Before your grandfather left, he confessed that the Emperor Taishang had a traitor in his heart, and let your second uncle come out of the shadow, just to suppress the Jia family, and he will have no protection when he goes to the Jia family, it is better to let the Jia family flourish and decline, the Jia family's great business will not be defeated even if it declines, as long as the younger generations can be cultivated, the Jia family still has hope of prosperity." ”
"And your two uncles are not people who can support Jiafu, and others only care about themselves, although I can still use what I say, but after all, I am a woman, even if I want to change, I am powerless, and now the hope of the Jia family is in Baoyu, which is also the reason why I love Baoyu."
Daiyu nodded with a heavy face, understanding her grandmother's hardships, the Jia family has different thoughts, there is no one who can support the beam, and she can only watch the Jia family decay little by little, but she doubts in her heart whether Baoyu can really support the Jia family.
Seeing that the topic was too heavy and her grandmother's face was sad, Daiyu hurriedly changed the topic and said something about her after marriage to make Jia's mother happy.
Later, Jiafu set up a banquet to entertain Wang Ziteng and Lu Jing and his wife, but the banquet was set up separately.
From the old lady's attitude towards herself in the past few days, the mandarin duck knew that the old lady had no intention of planning for herself for the time being, and when she thought of Qingwen's fate, she had been very polite to Daiyu, looking forward to the old lady one day changing her mind and sending herself to the Lu family for refuge.
Daiyu saw that the mandarin duck's attitude towards her was too enthusiastic, thinking that her grandmother had specially explained it, and she didn't care too much.
