"Jia Yao, okay, my name is Jia Yao, my brother's name is the best. The fourth sister loves her brother the most, no, no, it's Yaoyao who loves her brother the most. ”

Beside her, the little fourth sister, now Jia Yao. Jumping around, so unhappy, the two total horn pigtails on the head also fell upside down, flying up and down.

The big bright eyes flickered as they looked at their mother Shen Xian and their brother Jia Qiong. The tears on the puff puff's face have not yet dried, and with the grinning mouth, it is cute.

The little hands clapped each other vigorously, and circled around the two of them. It can't help but be funny, the happiness of a childlike child may be so simple.

Shen Xian looked at the scene in front of her, and remembered that Jia Qiong had just said that there were twenty taels of silver, and the pressure in her heart was also a lot, and the whole person couldn't help relaxing, and her body was not tense. There was some blush on his tired face, a warm smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and his eyebrows and eyes were full of tenderness.

Jia Qiong looked at her much more relaxed mother and lively sister beside her, and couldn't help but feel a burst of satisfaction in her heart. It's just that I regret a little, why didn't I talk to my mother yesterday, at least it could make her happy one day earlier.

What is life, in addition to firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, life is nothing more than the health and happiness of the family.

When you have a certain amount of capital, you can think about where to spend the world, if your family is living in poverty, and you still only care about your own fun, how can you be a man.

Such a person has no responsibility and responsibility, and Jia Qiong also looks down on him.

After looking at it with a smile in his eyes for a while, Jia Qiongfang picked up his good mood and said to Shen Xian again:

"Mother, there are still some things I want to ask you."

Shen Xian looked at her son in surprise, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and said softly and slowly: "Qiong'er, you say, listen to your mother." If you had known, you would not have hidden it from your child. ”

Looking at Shen Xian's smile, Jia Qiong also smiled back, organized her language, and said:

"That day, the old lady told me that when I was a child, you and my father took me to Rongfu, and said that they had hugged me, but there was such a thing."

Shen Xian's face paused slightly, smiled a little bitterly, and said slowly: "Yes, your father was still alive at that time. On that day, he took us to see the eldest master, and there was your eldest uncle and second uncle that day. Speaking of which, your eldest uncle, your second uncle, and your father are all subordinates of your uncle. ”

"Pardon, he commanded the soldiers and horses?" Jia Qiong interjected suspiciously.

"Yes, that's what your father said. Then it happened that the old lady called you to forgive him, and you took him with us. You were young at the time, and the old lady did hug you. ”

"At that time, the two governments were still very close to us as a side branch, just over four years ago."

"Unfortunately, I don't know what happened later. As long as the people in the Jiafu side branch are in the capital camp, they should all do the same thing, and I haven't heard of anyone who survived. ”

As he spoke, he moved the stool forward slightly, propped his right arm on the table, dragged his face with his hand, looked into the distance with his eyes, his thoughts diverged, and then said:

"After that day, we, the side branches, basically wore filial piety in every family, and every household wore linen. Not only that, but so are many homes in the city. Even the white cloth and longevity materials have risen by 30%, and the highest has risen to 50%. ”

Shen Xian said as if she was stuck in a memory, and only the fluctuations at the corners of her mouth could tell that she was muttering to herself.

Jia Qiong knew that this was a bad memory of her mother, and it was not easy to call her. just sat on the side and waited silently, occasionally touching Jia Yao's head and rubbing her hair.

Jia Yao tilted her head and looked at her brother silently, and then looked at her mother again, looking back and forth a few times.

As if he felt that the atmosphere was wrong, he also moved a small stool to sit next to Jia Qiong, pillowed his head on his brother's lap, and played with his hair.

After about a while, Shen Xian slowly came back to her senses and looked at Jia Qiong and Jia Yao.

After calming down slightly, a familiar smile appeared on his face again, and then he said gently: "Qiong'er, I just thought about my mother's affairs." Then you say, if your mother knows, she will share it with you. ”

Jia Qiong thought about it, but she could only change the topic, and she couldn't always evoke her mother's memories.

I looked at the ginkgo tree outside the courtyard, and my mind seemed to go back to ethnology, the ethnology where a lot of things happened. I remembered what I heard on the first day I entered the Ethnology.

Then he spoke again: "Mother, when the child was in the clan school before, how did I hear that Aunt Xing, the current wife of the uncle, is the maid of the original wife of the uncle."

The child wants to know some things about the two mansions, so as not to offend people again if he doesn't check for a while when he is studying in the Rong Mansion in the future, and he never knows it again, which crime will be greater. ”

Shen Xian looked at Jia Qiong, with a little doubt between her eyebrows, and thought for a moment before she said, "What Qiong'er said also makes some sense. However, when your father was alive, he only took his mother to the two mansions a few times, and his mother never knew many things.

But what you said, my mother had heard about it at the time, and she had seen it. Some of them were told to me by Brother Qiang's mother. ”

After a pause, Shen Xian was sorting out her thoughts again, and then said after a while: "At that time, the original name of your uncle should be Lin Ruya, I heard that it is also a marquis's family, and it has always been an old relative of the two mansions, but it seems that the previous generation has never studied the lord.

Your aunt seems to have an elder brother, whose name is Lin Ruhai, and you Jingbo in Dongfu are Jinshi in the same department. At that time, when I married your uncle, it seemed that I brought a maid who had a roommate, which is your current aunt. ”

Jia Qiong nodded thoughtfully when she heard this, she never thought that the Jia family and the Lin family still had such a relationship. I never thought that this Xing family was also a creative woman, from a slave to a companion, and finally to the princess of the Guogong Mansion.

Before I could finish thinking about it, I heard my mother continue to preach:

"More than three years ago, just a few months after your father died, he suddenly fell ill and died.

I heard that after a few months, the old lady of Rongfu married her favorite little daughter, your Aunt Min, to your aunt's brother, who is this Lin Ruhai.

I heard that a year or two ago, your Uncle Lin became a big official in Yangzhou. ”

"I didn't hear much about it at the time, but I only found out afterwards, it was Brother Neqiang'er's mother who told us that we were all widowed women, and we would talk together when we were fine.

However, the age difference between them is a bit big, Lin Ruhai seemed to be thirty and eight at that time, and your Aunt Min was only nine years old, so she was twenty years younger. It's a little strange to think about it now. ”

"But no matter how specific it is, I don't know about it, I only know that there was no big deal at the beginning, and I didn't even say anything about us, and I don't know what it is, not to mention that we orphans and widows, even if there are men in the side branches, we have never known about it.

It's all after the fact. I only heard that there are a lot of dowries given by Rongfu, in the words of your children, you readers, what is it called ten miles of red makeup! ”

Hearing this, Jia Qiong also knew that her mother didn't know much, but now that these things are concerned, she can also analyze some useful things.

As for what my mother just said, Lin Ruhai is a big official in Yangzhou, and it is estimated that even if he patrols the history of the salt palace. In this way, I have been doing it for about five years.

And how did Lin Ruya die, how can people believe that she died a normal death after a large number of Jia family side Zhijinghua died. Whether it's normal or not, you don't have to worry about this, and you can't care about it.

and why Jia Yu mentioned a room to be an eldest woman, it makes people feel incredible, and it is estimated that he will hide this, so he doesn't have to worry about it.

The only thing to think about now is to study, gain fame, and go down step by step, at least now that there is a monthly column, there is no need to be as difficult as before.

The scattered news she just got, Jia Qiong still thinks it's very useful, it's just useless now, and it will definitely be useful in the future.

There are also some benefits to listening to these kinds of stories.

Fishing for the secrets of history, planning for the layout of the future
