Chapter 175: Good News
When Jia Zheng came to the backyard, there were already many people in Jia's mother's room, and all the servants who had some heads and faces in Jia's mansion came to congratulate Jia's mother, and Jia's mother sat in the middle, with a smile on her face, but whenever someone came to congratulate her, she ordered someone to reward her, and Jia's mother's room is now lively and joyful.
As soon as Jia Zheng entered Jia's mother's house, someone reported to Li that the maid in Jia's mother's room immediately became silent as soon as she heard that Jia Zheng was coming.
Mother Jia has always loved to listen to congratulatory words, and when they stopped talking, Mother Jia couldn't help frowning.
Jia Zheng entered Jia's mother's room, and all the maids dared to salute, except for a few maids and daughters with status, the others then retreated.
Jia Mu said to him unhappily: "It's easy for me to be lively here for a while, and they will all leave as soon as you come." ”
Jia Zheng hurriedly apologized with a smile on his face: "It's all the son's, isn't it, the son is coming back to congratulate his mother." ”
When Jia Mu heard what he said, a smile appeared on her face, "Big brother is still very competitive, and it has only been a long time since he earned a knighthood." It seems that there will be a great deal in the future. ”
Jia Zheng also said with a smile: "The eldest brother has a third-grade general this time, and he can pass it down for another generation or two, but he doesn't do anything now." I don't have anything more to say. ”
When Jia Mu heard what he said, she said with an unhappy face: "What are you talking about?" Shut up for me. Our eldest brother will definitely achieve more in the future, and according to you, your grandfather and father are now just unknown petty officials. How can there be Rongguo Mansion today? ”
Jia Zheng knew that he had lost his words, so he could laugh and say good things: "It's my son's, it's not that I said the wrong thing." The achievements of the eldest brother in the future must be no worse than that of his father and grandfather. ”
Jia Mu heard what he said, so she let him go, "This is still like a human saying, don't say these frustrating words in the future." Our family is becoming more and more prosperous now, and it will definitely be more prosperous in the future. When the time comes, let others know that you said this, and don't make people laugh. ”
Jia Zhengguo smiled again and asked Jia Muxun: "Now that the eldest brother has a knighthood, should he be given a mansion?" ”
Jia Mu was unhappy when she heard what he said, "I haven't separated yet." Why do you want to drive the eldest brother out? ”
Jia Zheng hurriedly explained: "Where did my mother say it? Why did I drive my eldest brother out? I mean, give him a mansion, and when he comes back, he will look better in the face of his colleagues. ”
Jia Mu said unhappily: "Then I can't move now, who knows how big the eldest brother will be promoted in the future." Now he is busy building the house, and he will come back later. What if it doesn't work? Demolished and rebuilt? ”
Jia Zheng At this time, you also understand what Jia's mother meant, first, she is afraid of the house, and Jia Ke will inevitably have to be separated when she comes back, for fear that she will be separated from the family. The second is that if Jia Ke makes another military exploit, the emperor will have a reward, and the house will probably be abolished, and the Jia family is only just balancing income and expenditure now, and it can't afford such a waste. It's better to wait for Jia Ke to come back and then make plans.
After Jia Zheng understood this, he smiled and said to Jia's mother: "It's still my mother's thoughtfulness, my son, I only care about the present, when you don't have a mother to see the long-term." ”
Jia Mu also smiled and said, "Where did you go through these things? In those days, when there was a war, many people could move several times a month, and then there was chaos. Some families have just brought a house, but the pattern is too small according to the rules, and they can only be rebuilt in the end. There are not one or two such people. ”
Jia Zheng accompanied Jia's mother to laugh a few words, and then was about to leave.
Jia Mu stopped him and asked, "You stand up for a while, let me ask you, Aunt Zhou, what are you going to do?" ”
Jia Zheng was stunned by his mother's question, and said at a loss: "What does mother mean?" ”
Mother Jia looked at him angrily, "Her current son is the most outstanding in our family, and she has such a great merit, so she can't be rewarded and rewarded." ”
Jia Zheng frowned, thought for a while and said, "Mother, my son thinks that her current position is high enough, and there is really no way to be promoted again." ”
Jia Mu glared at him and said, "Since you can't give a name, let's give something practical." Does she still live in that little yard? Give her a larger yard and send a few more subordinates to wait. Isn't that a violation of etiquette? ”
As soon as Jia Zheng heard this, he suddenly realized, "My son will go and prepare, and let her live in the exquisite courtyard next to Rongxi Hall." ”
Jia Mu said with relief: "That's right." She lives comfortably, and her eldest brother will be happy to come back in the future. also set an example for the following, so that people know that our family is rewarded for meritorious service. ”
Jia Zheng was convinced, and Jia Mu said to him: "Okay, you can go back if it's okay." They don't feel comfortable with you here. Just a good joke together, as soon as you came, they all hid. ”
Jia Zheng bowed down and withdrew from Jia's mother's room.
Besides, Aunt Zhou is now in Jiafuzhong's transcendent status, she has reached the highest position that maids can climb, and because she gave birth to a good son, the mother is more precious than the son. And Jia Kesheng's garrison, these little maids beside her are all rising. They all trembled in the house, and often said to others, "We are not greedy for anything in this house, and our uncle can buy it in the end." In the future, when we move out, we will still be by our aunt's side, just like the maids in front of the old lady. ”
Somehow, these words reached Madame Wang's ears, and she was both annoyed and a little relieved by these words. Annoyed, Jia Ke compared her son to her, and now Jia Zhu is still recuperating in the room. As for when it will be good, it depends on God. Thankfully, they are still somewhat self-aware, knowing that these family properties belong to his two sons, and they do not come to compete with them. Otherwise, with Jia Ke's ability, Jia Zheng will really let Jia Ke inherit the Rongguo Mansion, after all, sometimes in the family inheritance, the distinction between the descendants and the concubines will not be so clear, and Jia Ke still has the status of the eldest son.
And when Aunt Zhao heard this, she was angry in her heart, she had been with Jia Zheng for so long. There was no movement in my stomach at all, and I felt a little sorry for myself at first. Later, when she complained to her mother, her mother paid attention to it, and went to a few spirited old mothers, and learned her words in this way, and these old women understood what was going on.
The grandmothers told her to let Aunt Zhao pay attention when she went back. Aunt Zhou was able to get pregnant back then, and a lot of thanks to the old lady's well-informed grandmother reminded her, which allowed Jia Ke to have Jia Ke and Aunt Zhou's current scenery in the house. Aunt Zhao learned the news from her mother, so she secretly paid attention, and from then on, she only ate the food brought by her mother, the delicacies of the mountains and seas of Jiafu, and she didn't touch it.
And today, Aunt Zhou was about to let the little maids go to the big kitchen to get lunch, when suddenly Xia Mai ran in from outside, still panting, this is a lot of road.
Xia Mai is no longer the same as before, she is now the only big girl next to Aunt Zhou who receives a tael of silver. Although it can't be compared with the old lady and the few around Mrs. Wang, it is also the first in this mansion. However, she still can't change her little problem of gossiping. When I have time, I run around, inquire about all kinds of gossip, and then come back to talk to Aunt Zhou.
Aunt Zhou knew that she had gotten some terrible news when she looked at her, and under normal circumstances, Aunt Zhou would satisfy her little vanity. So today is no exception, and when I saw her running into the house, I asked, "What's the news?" Is it Aunt Zhao's, or is it the eldest master's? ”
Xia Mai's excited face turned red at this time, and he opened his mouth to speak, but he couldn't say it for a while because of the excitement.
Aunt Zhou looked at her angrily and funny, "Don't worry, no one is urging you, let's rest." ”
Xia Mai didn't care about this, but came over and grabbed Aunt Zhao's hand regardless of etiquette, and her excited little face turned red.
