Heaven's Martial Fate

"Why me?"

In Ning'an Hall, only Jia Rong and Lian Er were left, and Master She and Master Zheng Er had already left hand in hand.

Lian Er was full of depression, unwilling to ask questions.

That's right, the turmoil in Zhili this time left the biggest benefit to the Jia family in the capital, and it was directly accepted by Lian Erxiao.

It's just obvious that Lian Er has some resistance.

It was understandable, after all, he was doing well in the yamen of the Ministry of Household Affairs, and it was always unpleasant to suddenly ask him to frighten the local government.

Keke forgot to mention, when Jia Rong proposed that Lian Er take over as Tongzhou magistrate, Mr. She agreed without hesitation, ignoring Lian Er's attitude at all.

No matter what his attitude is, the matter has basically settled down.

"Why, aren't you happy to be promoted two levels in a row?"

Jia Rong rolled her eyes and said angrily, "If you have an opportunity, you must seize it!"

There is an unwritten saying in official circles, that is, Beijing officials are very majestic and domineering when they see officials in junior or senior years.

But this is an unwritten rule, and it targets local officials who have no foundation in the capital.

You let Lian Er at this time, run to Lin Ruhai and have a try!
Only local officials who have no roots in the capital are worried that the subordinate Beijing officials will "talk nonsense" and dig holes for others after they return to Beijing, which will give the Beijing officials enough face.

But grades are grades, even Beijing officials have to be promoted slowly.

Lian Er was in the household department at this time, working as a seventh-rank document, and it was not easy to go further.

After all, he was not born in the imperial examination, and the support that the Ningrong Second House could give him was not enough for him to rise to the position quickly.

The yamen of the Ministry of Households is only slightly worse than the Ministry of Officials. It is definitely the core yamen of the imperial court. There are many eyes on it. It is quite difficult to be promoted internally.

According to Jia Rong's idea, it is to jump out of the barriers of the household department's yamen first, and then find a way to transfer back when the grade is improved.

Even if it is a transfer at the same level, it is still profitable.

At least, the Ningrong Second Mansion has such an energy boost.

Of course, Lian Er's performance at the local level should be better, and his political achievements should be clearly outstanding, so that it will be easier to operate and the resistance will be much smaller.

Don't forget that Lian Er is the only legitimate son of the first-class general Jia She, and he is the next generation heir to the title of the Rong Mansion. There will always be a lot of convenience in the promotion before the third rank.

"No, no, it's just that it feels too sudden, and I feel a little uncomfortable!"

Lian Er hastily waved his hands, and said tentatively: "Besides, I'm afraid the hot pepper at home won't be happy!"

"Then it's up to her!"

Jia Rong spoke calmly, her tone was quite firm, without any room for change.

It would be fine if Lian Er didn't mention Feng Lazi, but if he did, it would only be more passive.

"Second Uncle Lian, you are in your 20s now, and you don't have any descendants of blood, is it reasonable?"

Lian Er's complexion changed drastically with a light and fluffy sentence, and he dared not respond.

Jia Rong didn't let go of his intentions, and of course she also intended to mention something: "I know the situation in the West Mansion. Aunt Feng is stuck in the chores of the inner house and can't help herself. It is difficult to conceive a child in this state!"

"Aunt Feng is also a strong-tempered person. Even if her body is weak, she still has to insist on handling the internal affairs of the West Mansion properly. Coupled with her irregular diet, her body must be deficient!"

This is not an exaggeration, it is really the case.

How difficult it is for the son of the Xifu family, that is, the lady in charge, one only needs to look at the specific situation of the Xifu.

Feng Lazi is decisive in her actions and has a domineering style, and she is a serious and upright daughter-in-law in charge, but she can't stand the fact that one of the stewards under his command is stealing, raping, and playing tricks.

Most of these ladies in charge were promoted by the second wife's palace. Even if Wang Xifeng wanted to move them, he had to be cautious and involved a lot of energy.

On the other hand, in order to maintain the honor and decency of the old lady, the daughter-in-law who married in the door has to stand and wait on every meal.

Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Xing are both in their forties and the other in their thirties. They are both grandmas. Before noon and evening meals, they have to stand and serve in Rongqing Hall.

As a grandson's wife, Wang Xifeng naturally cannot escape this task.

Even though it was just for show, when the meal was ready, it would be considered as completing the task to put a piece of chopsticks on Mother Jia's dishes, but this was for Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Xing.

Wang Xifeng had to act as a pistachio for the meal, and after watching the old lady and the junior eat the meal, she was able to return to the residence to eat.

At this time, the time has often been staggered from the normal meal time.

Although, as the housekeeper's daughter-in-law, her meal standard is quite good, but if she misses the normal meal time, she misses it.

Over the years, it has caused great harm to the body.

Not to mention, it is not easy at all to have to deal with chores in the inner house.

There is no need for Jia Rong to mention these, Lian Er knows it well.

For a lot of time, he got off work from the Yamen, but Feng Lazi was still busy, and it was basically dark when he came back.

With Feng Lazi's physical and mental state at that time, no matter how hard Lian Er worked hard, it was still very difficult to conceive a child.

Seeing that Er Lian's expression was uncertain, Jia Rong continued to persuade: "Second Uncle Lian, if you go to Tongzhou to take up the post, Aunt Feng will definitely follow!"

"At that time, Aunt Feng will only have to manage the affairs of the Zhizhou Yamen's back house, which will be much easier and simpler than the sundries in the inner house in the West Mansion. The key is that Aunt Feng can truly call the shots, and she will naturally be able to do things according to her wishes!"

"Without so many complicated affairs, if you can take good care of your body, you will be able to conceive naturally and normally, and Second Uncle Lian will also be able to get rid of his heart disease!"

Sure enough, Lian Er was very moved when he heard the words, but these words touched his heart.

Because she had been married for several years but had no heirs, Lian Er was under a lot of pressure.

Especially Mr. Pardon, because this matter is quite rude to him.

In private, he spoke very straightforwardly, even harshly: "If Dafang doesn't have a direct male, the title of Rongfu will be inherited by Erfang!"

I have heard a lot, how can it be possible to say that there is no lump in my heart?

He really wanted three wives and four concubines, but unfortunately Feng Lazi was too strong and didn't give him the slightest chance.

It was the maids who were close to her, and just in case, they were betrothed to some powerful family members in the house as quickly as possible, and they became confidantes and maids in charge.

Of course, in order to deceive others, Feng Lazi left Ping Er as Lian Er's housemaid, but did not give Lian Er a chance to steal.

For the sake of the children, Lian Er and Wang Xifeng had a lot of quarrels, and the relationship between husband and wife was quite cold...
