Chapter 164: Rouge

Jia Zhengxia went out of the palace gate, because he still had to go to the Ministry of Industry to be on duty, so he sent his entourage to hurry back to Jiafu to report the news.

Although the Jia family is the home of generations of hairpins and the location of the martial arts generals, since Jia Yuanjia acted, he has advocated his children to study.

The reason is that the Jia family was originally a scholarly family in the previous dynasty. The Jia family has produced many Jinshi for generations, Jia Yuan Jia Yan's grandfather, who was once in the Great Zhou Dynasty official to the Ministry of Rites, and was almost able to enter the cabinet.

However, it was precisely because of this Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites that he was involved in an unjust case at that time, which led to the entire Jia family being almost wiped out.

Later, although he was rehabilitated in time, the old man couldn't stand the grievances and died of illness shortly after he was released from prison. The Jia family also fell into the middle of the family because of this, and it was not until Jia Yuan Jia Yan assisted Taizu in founding the country that the family was revitalized.

Despite this, Jia Yuan and Jia Yanrong have never neglected the education of their children. Jia Daishan was educated in both civil and military affairs, and was known as the only god general in China who could be comparable to Li Jing, the military god of the Zhenguan period. Although it is a slight exaggeration, it is enough to show Jia Daishan's literary talent.

Jia Daihua even abandoned martial arts and followed literature, although he also once served as the envoy of the Beijing Camp Festival, but he was actually engaged in the work of Wenchen.

When it comes to the literary generation, although there are no people in Rongfu, Jia Jing of Ningfu is known as the prime minister of cloth.

Even if it weren't for Taizu's stipulation that Wu Xun could not be appointed as a civilian, the Jia family would have hoped that they would become a civilian family.

This can be seen from Jia's mother saying many times that the Jia family is a scholarly family and a family of poetry and books.

Therefore, now that Jia Lian has become a civil official, although it is Honglu Temple, it is enough for the Jia family to be happy.

Jia's mother, who had just eaten breakfast, was overjoyed when she heard this, and she was even happier than when Jia Lian made a great contribution to bring the Jia family back to the door of relatives.

"Good, good, happy, girl, reward." Mother Jia laughed and ordered the mandarin ducks, not only to reward all the people in the house with a year's monthly money, but also to order the wine.

"Please invite my aunt's wife to come, eat and drink at noon, even if you eat, it doesn't hurt to get drunk."

Mother Jia's mood is the mood of the entire Rongguo Mansion, at least in the inner house, as long as Mother Jia is happy, the atmosphere in the inner house is much more relaxed.

No, as soon as he heard Jia's mother's words, the mandarin duck immediately said happily: "Come on, don't worry, the ancestor can rest assured, the slave and maid will arrange it." ”

Seeing that Jia's mother was happy, Jia Zheng also joked: "Now that Lian'er has entered Honglu Temple, she can be regarded as a civil official like her son." Our family can be regarded as a real scholarly family. ”

Wang Xifeng's face changed when she heard Jia Zheng's words, she remembered that Jia Lian said that since the Jia family started with martial arts, it is a martial general.

Wuxun's side is the root of the Jia family and the foundation of the Jia family. Forgetting this means forgetting the roots, and the family will no longer be able to prosper.

When Jia Lian returned to the mansion, what he saw was the scene of the family banquet that had been prepared. Jia Lian didn't say anything more, and went to the table to eat and drink together.

In order to celebrate Jia Lian, not only the Rong Mansion and the Princesses were all present, but also the Ning Mansion Jia Zhen and the two of them.

Seeing Jia Lian entering the arena, he was dressed in a crimson four-grade official uniform, looking heroic. Stars are starting to rise in the eyes of many people, including but not limited to young girls.

"The second brother is wearing it, and the foolish brother and others are even more compared." When Jia Zhen saw Jia Lian coming in, she immediately smiled and spoke.

"Brother Jane is too modest, it's just a piece of clothing, it's nothing." Jia Lian waved his hand and sat down on the side.

After three rounds of drinking, Jia's mother asked, "Lian'er, do you have to go to the yamen every day now?" ”

A bunch of black lines suddenly appeared on Jia Lian's forehead: "Not only do I go to the yamen office, but I also have to go to the morning court every day." Before leaving the palace, I was in the Wenhua Palace, and my grandfather specially instructed me that I should not be absent from the early dynasty. ”

Thinking of Jia Lian's usual time to get up, Jia's mother was happy. But now she is more concerned about the garden: "What will happen to the garden later?" It can't delay the period of provincial relatives, and it can't fall behind the Wu family. ”

"Ancestor, rest assured, our Wu family is different. The Wu family had just entered Beijing, and the mansion was not big. If you want to build a provincial hospital, you can only go to the outside of the city to see another place, and I heard that the place has just been selected now.

Since our family is based on Huifang Garden, the amount of work is small. Sun Er hired Shenjing's garden master Shan Yezi to preside, and there will be no problem. ”

"It's not appropriate to find an outsider, or a craftsman, to preside over such a big thing!" Mrs. Wang couldn't help it again and jumped out again.

Jia Lian felt a little funny, not to mention the methods that Mrs. Wang secretly used, the habit of jumping out at both ends in the past three days to slap herself in the face is really interesting.

"What does the second aunt think should be done?" Jia Lian is in a good mood today and plans to play with Mrs. Wang.

"Since Lian'er has a lot of things to do, it's better to leave it to Baoyu to Prime Minister. Where Baoyu can't be busy, I can find a few people from the Wang family to help. ”

Seeing Jia Zhenghe, whose face suddenly changed and scolded Mrs. Wang, his face was difficult to see Jia Mu who was extremely embarrassed, as well as Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai, who were full of embarrassment. Jia Lian shook his head helplessly and smiled.

Even Wang Xifeng couldn't listen to it anymore, and opened directly: "Second wife, this is the Jia family, and the one who came back to save her relatives is also the eldest lady of the Jia family." There are thousands of people in the Jiajiaqi clan, and there is no shortage of a few to help. ”

Seeing Mrs. Wang, whose face was gloomy, Jia Lian gave Wang Xifeng a thumbs up, and then said: "Second uncle, I am not interested in meddling in this garden, if you don't worry, you want to take it back, I welcome it."

It's just that I have already invested 300,000 taels of silver in the garden, and if you return this silver to me, I can hand over the garden to Baoyu immediately, even if you find someone from the Wang family, I will agree. ”

"Eh, Lian'er ......", Jia Mu heard Jia Lian say this, and hurriedly prepared to play a round. At the beginning, he finally pressed this matter to Jia Lian, but this time he was just worried that Jia Lian was busy with official business and delayed the progress of the garden, but he didn't want him to pick a child.

"Why?"

Unexpectedly, before Jia Mu finished speaking, Mrs. Wang became excited. Jumped up and shouted loudly.

"Wang, you ......"

Jia Lian waved his hand: "Second uncle, you probably forgot that when I took over the garden, although our two rooms had not yet been separated, the property had been divided.

Now that I have invested in a big house, if you want to go back, can you not pay? ”

Seeing that Mrs. Wang still wanted to speak, Jia Mu shouted: "Someone." ”

A couple of gray-haired old ladies walked in.

"Send the second wife back to her own courtyard, and from today to the concubine province, you can give me a Buddha in the courtyard."

After a pause, Jia Mu continued: "Or, do you want to accompany the eldest lady in the back of the Buddha Hall." ”

Hearing Jia Mu's threatening words, Mrs. Wang finally shut up completely.

"Mother, I ......" Jia Zheng also planned to plead with Mrs. Wang. Mother Jia blocked back with a word: "Zheng'er, if it weren't for the imminent arrival of the concubine, if it weren't for her being Baoyu's biological mother." You should write a letter of resignation today. ”

Mrs. Wang was taken down, and Jia Lian noticed that until she came out of Rongqing Hall, Mrs. Wang's eyes were looking at Baoyu.

And Baoyu, intently appreciating the rouge on people's mouths.
