Chapter 659: Don't be stingy
Xue Baoqin is very beautiful, all over the body, I feel beautiful everywhere.
Her eyes were clear and her skin was fair.
The eyebrows are like daisies, and the mouth is like cherry blossoms.
If you use two words to describe her beauty, Jia Huan can only think of the word "exquisite".
And judging from the poems she picked up, she is still a girl with a very "belly of poetry and books".
Therefore, it seems, she has a very luxurious temperament.
Glamorous but not demonic, refreshing and vulgar.
Near-perfect.
It's just that, looking at her and remembering the news sent by the "Green Falcon" the day before yesterday, Jia Huan sighed slightly in his heart......
After learning that Xue Baoqin's father married Xue Baoqin to Mei Hanlin's son before his death.
Jia Huan once made a special effort to check the Mei family, who is this Mei Hanlin.
After a check, I found that this Mei family is really amazing.
The dynasty is only a hundred years old, but the Mei family has produced three generations of Hanlin.
It is a veritable Hanlin family.
In addition to the first-class jinshi, that is, the champion, the top one and the tanhua, only the top few jinshi in the second-class are eligible to pass the examination to become a Hanlin Shujishi.
Therefore, the Mei family is a noble family that truly inherits poetry and books.
What makes Jia Huan pay more attention is that the Mei family is more intimate with the King of Zhongshun......
But the Mei family is different from most officials in the line of Zhongshun Wang, his family is very low-key, and it is very incorruptible.
However, honesty is honesty, and the people of the Mei family are by no means nerds who don't know how to change.
After careful observation, Jia Huan found a very interesting result.
That is, the men of the Mei family are all "soft rice kings......
The men of the Mei family have the same path, that is, to take the path of "entering the famous teaching, studying the scriptures, taking the imperial examination, becoming a Hanlin, and then seeking to enter the cabinet".
But the Hanlin of all dynasties and dynasties were all famous Qingshui Yamen, and the poor Hanlin who couldn't afford to eat meat grabbed a lot of them.
The life in Hanlin Academy can be described in one word: boil!
Stay up until the state and county are delegated to be officials and take real power.
The rules of Daqin officialdom do not go to Lizhou County, and they do not plan to be Taiwan Province.
If you want to join the cabinet, you must have experience in politics at the "grassroots".
But not every Hanlin has the opportunity to decentralize the state and county and take power.
And even if it is decentralized, if you can't shine during your reign, most of them will return to the Hanlin Academy in the end to continue to watch the government and continue to ......
And if you want to shine during your reign, no one dares to make money unless you are extremely short-sighted.
Therefore, the Hanlin official is still poor!
But the Mei family is different, according to the news reported by the "Green Falcon", although the life of the Mei family is not luxurious and extravagant, but it is very noble and exquisite, and never wrongs themselves.
However, the Mei family has never been greedy for ink, nor is it engaged in business, let alone thousands of acres of fertile land.
So where does their wealth come from?
After Jia Huan investigated, he found that the Mei family actually lived on the dowry of the daughter-in-law who married into the Mei family......
The three generations of the Mei family, the heirloom of poetry and books, are so noble, they are naturally qualified to choose in-laws.
And the in-laws selected by the Mei family for their children are almost all innocent and well-off.
Among them, there are many giants, so most of the dowries are rich.
is rich enough for the Mei family to live a noble life that is not very rich and noble, but also very decent.
After Jia Huan couldn't cry or laugh for a while, he found that this kind of collocation seemed to be quite harmonious.
If the man takes the test to have a noble name, he can basically protect the peace of the family and easily not be bullied.
The woman is responsible for supporting the family and "raising her husband and children".
Relying on this combination of "male ploughing and female weaving", the Mei family has been stable and noble for a hundred years.
Of course, this alone will not be able to achieve a hundred years of luxury.
The Mei family also has a very important family rule, that is, it is not easy not to provoke right and wrong, and to be contaminated with cause and effect.
This is also an important reason why the Mei family has been able to pass on the family for a hundred years without falling.
Perhaps, it is precisely for this reason that the Mei family has been returning from Ludi for half a month, but they still haven't come to the door to discuss Xue Baoqin's family affairs, and they haven't even said hello......
The meaning of repentance is undoubtedly manifested.
In his previous life, when he was reading the original work of Red Mansions, Jia Huan had doubts.
Cao Gong's pen, why can't a near-perfect person like Xue Baoqin enter the twelve hairpins.
Many people say that this is because Xue Baoqin is not a person in the Bo Ming Division, and she will live a rich and happy life after marrying the Mei family in the future.
This is obviously inconsistent with the overall style of the Red Mansion's "a thousand reds cry, and ten thousand Yan share sorrow".
And, there's a more intuitive reason.
Cao Gong's pen loves to use homophony.
For example: Qin Zhong's homonym is "love species", Yuan, Ying, Tan, and Xi Sichun are homophonic to "should sigh", Feng Yuan, who was killed by Xue Pan, is homophonic to "meet grievances", Qin Keqing's homonym is "love can be light", Zhen Shiyin's father-in-law Feng Su's homonym is "customs", Jia Zheng's diners Zhan Guang and Shan Pingren's homonyms are "dipping" and "good at deceiving people", Zhen Yinglian's homonym is "really should be pitied" and so on.
And the homonym of the Mei family is "no home".
From this, we can see what Xue Baoqin's fate will be in the future......
"Brother Huan'er?"
A voice that obviously contained thin anger woke Jia Huan up.
When Jia Huan came back to his senses, he saw that Jia Mu was looking at him with some anger, and her eyes were full of dissatisfaction.
How can anyone stare at other girls like this, it's too disrespectful, and it also loses its self-respect.
And Xue Baoqin's face obviously had a sense of shame and indignation.
The faces of the others are naturally not much better......
Jia Huan hurriedly explained: "No...... Ancestor, grandson just thought of something, so he was distracted. ”
"What's the matter? I can't tell you carefully today! ”
Jia Mu's anger did not subside.
Jia Huan thought about it, but decided to say it directly.
Long pain is better than short pain, and he doesn't want to be a "man behind the scenes" or an "unsung hero".
Jia Huan turned his head and said to Aunt Xue, who was sitting on the lower left side of the soft couch, "Auntie, hasn't the Mei family sent someone yet?" As far as I know, they have been back in Beijing for more than half a month......"
As soon as these words came out, the whole house changed.
Aunt Xue's face was even more difficult to see for a moment!
However, Xue Baoqin's face turned pale at first, looked up at Jia Huan, and then returned to normal and lowered his head......
Aunt Xue's angry tears were about to fall, and she gritted her teeth at Jia Huan and said, "How have you ever seen half of the Mei family coming?" Brother Huan, aren't the Mei family officials in Ludi? ”
Jia Huan nodded and said: "I'm already back, Mei Cheng, the head of the Mei family, has outstanding political achievements in the position of governor of Shandong, and this time I came back, it is likely that I will enter the cabinet......"
"It turns out that it is going to soar, no wonder, no wonder ......"
After Aunt Xue heard this, her face turned pale again, and her body trembled a little with anger.
What a shame!
Jia's mother's face was also a little ugly, what she cared about was that the Xue family was now living in the Jia family.
Isn't the Mei family's behavior like this also slapping the Jia family in the face?
Jia Huan smiled and said to Mother Jia and Aunt Xue: "Actually, it's not a good thing......
"What do you mean by that?"
When Aunt Xue heard this, she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and hurriedly asked.
The others also looked at Jia Huan.
Jia Huan put it simply: "The Mei family is the people from the side of the King of Zhongshun. ”
When Mother Jia and Aunt Xue heard this, they were immediately silent and looked at each other......
Since the Jia family returned to the court, especially Jia Huan tossed so much, Jia's mother and Aunt Xue began to inquire about some court matters.
Naturally, it will not be strange to the meaning of the three words of the King of Loyalty.
The most intuitive impression is that the sworn enemy of the Jia family!
Aunt Xue was embarrassed for a while, and she didn't know what to say.
In fact, in addition to expressing her indignation, she also wanted to ...... Let Jia Huan help her make the decision and put pressure on the Mei family to admit the original marriage contract.
But now, it doesn't work.
Aunt Xue was completely out of ideas, so she could only look at Jia Huan.
Jia Huan smiled at Aunt Xue and said, "Auntie, it depends on your own meaning.
If you still want to achieve this kind of family business, don't say that the Mei family has not yet entered the cabinet, he has become the elder of the first auxiliary pavilion, and he has to recognize this family.
If you don't want to admit it again, that's okay.
The Mei family is not the only good family in the world, not to mention, his family seems to be full of flowers now, but in fact, the future is worrying.
Befriending the king of Zhongshun has long been a curse.
In the future, there will be a lot of liquidation.
Hehe......"
Aunt Xue was even more startled when she heard this, and said anxiously: "How is that good?" If that's the case, how can Qin'er still get married? ”
"It's better not to marry, uh......"
Jia Baoyu, who was a little excited, suddenly blurted out, and immediately drew everyone's attention.
Seeing that everyone looked at him strangely, Jia Baoyu hurriedly explained: "I mean, since the third brother said that the Mei family is not a good family, and his family despises us first, it is conceivable that even if Sister Qin passes, I am afraid that it will be difficult to live a good life." So, it's better not to ......."
When Aunt Xue heard this, she felt her heart and echoed: "Isn't it, since the Mei family has a heart of disliking the poor and loving the rich, even if Qin'er passes the door, I am afraid that she will not be welcomed!" Alas...... If you are implicated again in the future, will you not be wronged? ”
"Brother Huan, what do you think?
I shouldn't have asked you, but this is not just a simple matter of children.
Your aunt and I are just housewives, so what insight can we have?
Since your sister Bao is with you, and Qin'er is her sister, then you have to make an idea about this matter.
Otherwise, which one should you ask your aunt to ask? ”
Jia Mu said to Jia Huan, her face serious.
However, how could his eyes keep glancing at Jia Baoyu......
Jia Huan was a little funny.
Jia Mu is a more casual person, she doesn't have too many door views, and her biggest requirement for girls is to be good-looking.
Obviously, Xue Baoqin is fully competent in this regard.
It's a pity that she forgot a little.
She doesn't care about the portal, but someone does......
But now is not the time to talk about that.
"Amitabha, in the end, the old lady is the most benevolent and benevolent. Pity our Xue family's orphans and widows, no one is in charge......"
Jia Huan only groaned slightly, and Aunt Xue began to "apply eye medicine......
Mother Jia couldn't hear the good words again, and after being polite, she looked at Jia Huan again, frowned, and said: "In the past, if any of the sisters in the family suffered the slightest grievance, you would fight everywhere like a rooster who fried Mao'er.
Why is it so quiet now?
Brother Huan, your sister Qin is not an outsider!
You can't be too stingy......"
Her eyes flew in the direction of her second grandson again......
