Flowers on the other side [Comprehensive Red House]

When Jia Zheng left the study, he turned angrily to go to Mrs. Wang.No wonder Jia Zheng was annoyed. Jia's mother is already in her 70s, and she had a small stroke last time.So when I learned that it was after Mrs. Wang left that the maid of the old lady called the imperial doctor, I was very angry: This woman, the old lady almost had another stroke because of her; , just cry Zhuer.Didn't he know that Zhu'er was there? With Zhu'er here, Jia Zheng's momentum dropped.Forget it, let's talk to her well.

After entering Mrs. Wang's courtyard, the little girl hurriedly reported, "Master is back."

The big maid Caiyun came out of the house, saluted Jia Zheng, and said, "Master, my wife is in the small Buddhist hall." As she spoke, she lifted the curtain for Jia Zheng.When Jia Zheng entered the house, he turned around and ordered the little maid to invite Mrs. Wang.

Jia Zheng held the teacup brought up by Caiyun, and kept skimming the tea with the lid of the bowl.When Mrs. Wang came in, what she saw was Jia Zheng, who looked like he was in a trance.

Mrs. Wang asked the maids to go down, cleared her throat, saw Jia Zheng came back to his senses, Fang smiled slightly, "Master, I didn't take a break at noon, but what's the matter?"

If Jia Zheng is not on duty, he usually rests in the front yard at noon.Jia Zheng never had a hand in the affairs of the Ministry of Industry. He often went to the yamen and then went home. Even if he stayed in the Ministry of Industry, most of the time he read books by himself.

Jia Zheng saw Mrs. Wang's calm and calm appearance, and the fire in his heart was raised and raised, but he still thought about the man who taught his son in front of the hall and taught his wife by his pillow, and asked patiently: "The old lady just invited the imperial doctor, do you know?" ?”

Mrs. Wang immediately turned pale with fright, "What's the matter with the old lady? I went to see the old lady before lunch, and it was fine."

Jia Zheng saw that Mrs. Wang's demeanor didn't look like a fake, he sighed and said, "It's all right, but the imperial doctor said that I can't stand the joy and sorrow anymore, otherwise I'm afraid I'm going to have a stroke."

Mrs. Wang's thoughts turned, and she suddenly realized, "Master, do you suspect that the concubine is angry with the old lady?"

Seeing Jia Zheng's silence, Mrs. Wang and his husband and wife for decades, how could they not know what he was thinking, and they couldn't help crying, "Master, our husband and wife for decades, it's not unreasonable for my concubine to serve my mother every day. I've been tired and neglected. Especially now, don't I know that it will be more and more difficult for Yuan Chun to be in the palace now that I canonize Concubine Shu?"

When Jia Zheng saw Mrs. Wang's words, he couldn't help but feel that he had fallen for Meng Lang. The old lady might be worried about the canonization.He took out the handkerchief and handed it to Mrs. Wang. "Ma'am, don't worry. In fact, the whole family depends on the old lady for support, and the old lady cannot tolerate any mistakes."

Mrs. Wang nodded, wiped her tears, and said: "I'll save my life. It's just that if you go on like this, you will have nothing to rely on. The old lady is old, and you have to rely on the old lady to make up her mind, not to mention the outside affairs. .”

The husband and wife were silent, feeling the boundless pressure rushing towards their faces, making them suffocating.

After a while, Jia Zheng coughed with difficulty, and muttered to himself, "Don't worry, you'll get better."

Having said this, Jia Zheng seemed to have found a way to get better, "Baoyu is getting older, he should calm down and study hard. I arrested him to endorse in the front study. If you can see, I will marry Baoyu. Come early Married here, you also have a helper, and someone urges him to work hard every day, so that he won't be naughty with some little girls every day."

Although Mrs. Wang wanted to marry Baoyu, she thought that Baoyu was still young, "My lord, Baoyu's thirteenth birthday has not yet passed, so it must be fifteen before she can get married? If you have sex too early, if you hurt yourself, But what's the matter?"

Jia Zheng thought about it too, no matter how soon it would be the next year, he acquiesced to Mrs. Wang's plan. "These ladies can figure it out. I'll go ahead and see Baoyu."

The examination was held as scheduled. On the ninth day of the ninth day, Jia Lian sent the Zhang family brothers to the Gong Yuan, and at noon on the eleventh, he brought a small number of 20 people to the gate of the Gong Yuan to pick them up and sent them back to the mansion.The high priest of the Hou's mansion was already waiting, and took the pulse of the three of them carefully. Seeing that the three of them were fine, they bathed, ate, and slept separately. Jia Lian and the two sisters-in-law of the Zhang family said goodbye, and left a message saying that they would come back in the evening.

During the nine-day test, the three brothers of the Zhang family were exhausted, and Jia Lian was so busy picking up and dropping them off that they lost a few catties.

While Jia Lian was busy picking up and seeing off the Zhang family brothers, Sister Feng was not idle either. Following Yingchun's mother-in-law, she suddenly learned the etiquette of entering the palace to meet the empress.Jia Amnesty was ordered by his daughter to be a concubine. As usual, he had to hand over the thank you note, please hand over the note from Mrs. Feng Shizi, and it will be approved the next day, so Sister Feng has to go to the palace to thank you.

After two days of etiquette study, Sister Feng pinched the fat on her waist and abdomen, and Ping'er joked, "Ping'er, if you practice like this for another month, your grandma must have the thinnest waist in this house."

Ping'er massaged Sister Feng's legs, "Grandma, others want to practice, but they haven't had the chance yet."

Sister Feng talked casually and peacefully, and then fell asleep.

On the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, Jia She and his son went to court, and Sister Feng went to the palace to pay respects to the queen to thank her.

Sister Feng followed the little eunuch who led the way and walked for half an hour before arriving at the Queen's Palace of Kunning.For Sister Feng, who has seen many grand palaces, this eerie building with golden roof and glazed tiles and thick red pillars is a monster that must be dealt with carefully, and it is likely to devour life at any time.

The maids of Kunning Palace picked up Sister Feng and arranged for her to wait for her in the side hall. A young lady brought tea, Sister Feng thanked her, gave the little lady a few silver beans, and asked casually how long she would have to wait.

The little maid shook her head, and Sister Feng stopped talking and closed her eyes to rest.Sister Feng waited until she almost fell asleep, when footsteps came from outside, and then the little palace maid serving tea for Sister Feng came in and called Sister Feng to visit the empress in the hall.

The Queen didn't make things difficult for Sister Feng, she asked some questions about the Marquis of Rongguo's Mansion, and seeing Sister Feng's straightforward and clear answer, she liked her a little bit.Seeing that the queen was tired, Sister Feng hurriedly got up and said goodbye.

After leaving the palace, Sister Feng let out a sigh of relief, she was too depressed.It's really not a place for people to stay.

When Jia Lian was free, she wanted to help Sister Feng to see the preparations for the banquet in the Hou's mansion.After seeing the banquet prepared by Sister Feng, Jia Lian was dumbfounded, and brought something like this?

Seeing Jia Lian like that, Sister Feng thought it was funny, "Second Master, do you think the manpower in this mansion can support such a big banquet?"

Jia Lian thinks about it too, the number of people who came from the Rongguo Mansion was small, and some people were assigned to Zhuangzi later. Spoiled the banquet.

"The queen borrowed someone from you?"

"My mother lent it to me on her own initiative. A few days ago, I went to the palace to thank you. When I mentioned that my father was going to hold a banquet, I recited to my mother the people I wanted to invite on the first day of the banquet, and then said that I was going to invite a restaurant." The master master brought the waiter to help for two days. In the afternoon, the empress sent someone to tell me that the house should prepare materials and borrow someone to help me for a day."

"Does father know?"

"I know. You were too busy those few days. The master said that I don't need to tell you. He said that this is not someone borrowed by the queen, but someone sent by Shang Shang today."

After thinking about it, Jia Lian understood, hehe, in his heart hehe, this is the first time his family is holding a banquet, the chef is in charge, and most of the people who are serving are people who are in the hidden residence today. It is a perfect match for the person and purpose of the banquet on the first day. ah.

On the first day of Jia Amnesty's banquet, almost all the guests arrived. Li Shangshu from the Ministry of Household Affairs and the three brothers from the Zhang family were in the party. The old friends of the old lady Fu and the remnants of the old Qiansui's remnants were entertaining the party; Cheng Yin took Jia Lian to receive the old friends of the empress's father in the Imperial Academy, as well as those who later defected to Jinshang; there were also two Shijia brothers who accompanied Jia Amnesty to greet the monks who had joined the ruling army in Jinshang Jia Daishan, Jia Daihua's old department, who is hesitant and swinging.

After a group of hundreds of people sat down and looked at each other, they understood in their hearts that this was not Jia She's treat, it was clearly borrowing Jia She's mansion to win people's hearts.After the dishes were served, they were all the dishes for the imperial banquet, so the youngest historian patted Jia She on the shoulder and said, "Enhou, you can set up an imperial banquet in the mansion."

Jia Amnesty was not humble either, pointing to a person who was serving food and said, "Do you know him? This is the person from Shangqian Mansion."

Then he instructed the people in Qiandi to fill the banquet with wine, and he raised his glass to thank everyone who came to the banquet.

After drinking for three rounds, Cheng Yin stood up and said, "Today, everyone, like me, is here to celebrate Enhou's return to the court, secondly to celebrate Enhou's happy grandson, and thirdly to celebrate Enhou's beloved daughter canonization as Concubine Shu." .”

Cheng Yin's words received widespread response. Everyone here is a person with a deep gap in their chests. They can't see that the Supreme Being has become a thing of the past, and the current situation has firmly established the position of a saint.Regardless of whether he followed the prince loyally or devotedly to any prince, seeing that today the emperor extended an olive branch with Jia Amnesty's wine, for the sake of his wealth and life, why would he not accept it.

Besides, Cheng Yin normally closed the door to thank guests, and when idlers were not allowed to enter the Cheng family's door, seeing Cheng Yin's half-master attitude, they all began to cooperate with each other.For a while, the cups and glasses were staggered, and the atmosphere was warm.

Jia Amnesty, together with Cheng Yin, brought Jia Lian and the three brothers from the Zhang family to toast at the table.Li Shangshu looked at the people who had gone with Jia She and Cheng Yin, and said to the elders at the same table: "The grandson-in-law of the old master is well chosen, and he has not forgotten to support the younger generation of the Zhang family for more than [-] years."

The elders of the pavilion nodded in approval. Whoever can guarantee that their family will always be smooth and smooth, and those who value kindness and righteousness are willing to pay more.

Someone muttered softly, "I'm afraid that after today, Jia Daishan and Jia Daihua's old ministries will belong to Jia She."

Everyone agrees with this statement.
