Red House Shoufu

Chapter 131
When Jia Lian got home, Yingchun had just written all the invitations.

When the emperor made the decree today, he was standing outside the Hall of Qinzheng, and he was the first person to know about the happy event at home.

"Second brother, can you see if there is any problem with these posts?"

Yingchun put the invitation in front of Jia Lian, and she opened the top invitation and said, "My ancestor asked me to send the invitation to the Beijing County Prince's Mansion, but I heard my father scold the Beijing County King in the yard. Do you still want to send the post?"

"Send! My father has scolded many people. He has scolded half of the nobles in the entire capital. Cheng'en Gongfu? What is the old lady planning to do? Our family sent a post to the first empress's family to show off to others that the family has Is it a virtuous concubine? How can a concubine’s family post a post to the main family’s family?”

Jia Lian frowned, and directly took out the post that was going to be sent to Cheng'en Gong's mansion, and threw it aside.

Wang Xifeng said: "The old lady is going to show Baoyu, Cheng Engong's granddaughter, that is, the former empress' niece just turned thirteen..."

"Nonsense, is Baoyu worthy? The former queen's niece is worthy of the prince and prince. Don't worry about this matter. If the old lady wants to ask, I said it."

Sometimes Jia Lian really couldn't understand what kind of evil the old lady was besieging, and she had to live a good life but insisted on messing around.

The Rongguo Mansion had finally obtained the honorable title of Super Grade, and even wanted to show it to Baoyu at the banquet celebrating the title.

As we read through the posts one by one, Jia Lian's face became more and more ugly.Is the old lady planning to choose a concubine for Baoyu?Even the emperor would not do such a thing, it would completely embarrass the Rongguo Mansion.

"Hey, Second Sister, wait a minute. I'll go to the old lady's place, and I'll decide who to send the post to later."

Jia Lian got up and was about to leave, Yingchun quickly grabbed him: "Second brother, don't go, I'll do it. Otherwise, the old ancestor will scold you again."

"Silly girl, what's the use of you going? The old lady has raised you girls into cotton-like tempers... Don't worry, your second brother, the last thing I fear is being scolded."

Jia Lian reached out and patted Yingchun on the head. The brother and sister had never been so close before.

After Jia Lian left, Wang Xifeng pulled Yingchun to sit down: "Don't worry about your second brother, he is now a celebrity by His Majesty's side, and the old lady has to give him three points."

……

Rong Xi was in the hall, and Jia Shishi had just finished eating and was letting Yuanyang massage her legs.

Today's sudden edict of knighting completely disturbed her heart.

Seeing that the first house is getting more and more prosperous, the second house has not improved at all except for the birth of a concubine.Especially Jia Baoyu, if he can't achieve military success, what will he do in the future?

Jia Shishi closed his eyes, remembering the scene when Jia Baoyu was born.That day Baoyu was born with jade, and everyone ran to see the newborn child, only she was still worried whether this natural vision would make the royal family jealous.

But that night, she saw a monk in her dream, and the shabby-looking monk told her that Jia Baoyu was formed from the divine stone left by Nuwa Empress who mended the sky. Do her a great favor...

Although the dream is absurd, but combined with the vision of being born with jade, Jia Shishi has a glimmer of hope in his heart.

Then she took the opportunity of offering incense to ask Jia Daishan's stand-in Daoshi Zhang, the real person of the illusion, to count on the newly born Baoyu.

Unexpectedly, Daoist Zhang also said that this baby was a person with a great history. With his skill, he could only vaguely see a figure surrounded by colorful clouds.

……

Since the failure of the former crown prince, Jia Amnesty has been imprisoned in the mansion, and the Rongguo Mansion has been declining day by day. Jia Shishi has lost confidence in the big house. Jia Shishi, who is not willing to leave her for wealth and wealth, puts all her hopes on Jia Baoyu body.

More than ten years have passed, and Jia Baoyu, who has great fortune, has become Jia Shishi's only hope, and at the same time has become her obsession.Even though Dafang slowly recovers, she still stubbornly believes that Baoyu's fortune is her future.

"Old Ancestor, Second Master Lian is here!"

Jia Shishi, whose memories were interrupted, opened his cloudy eyes and said with some displeasure, "Let him in."

Jia Lian, who didn't even have time to change his clothes when he got home, strode in.After entering the door, he bowed and saluted: "Grandson pays respects to the old lady!"

"Why did this come here? Is there something wrong?" Jia Shishi, who just woke up from the memories, didn't really want to see the people in the big room.

Jia Lian sat on the chair with a strong horse, and said bluntly: "Just now the second sister showed the post of inviting relatives and friends to the banquet. There are some problems in it that the grandson wants to discuss with the old lady."

Jia Shishi waved Yuanyang out, she knew that her grandson must have a different opinion, otherwise she would not have come here at this time.

"Tell me, what's your problem?"

"The old lady is going to show Baoyu Xiang a daughter-in-law at the banquet? Why do you invite so many families with girls of the right age?" Jia Lian asked directly.

Jia Shishi frowned, and replied with some displeasure: "Why? The old woman wants to give her grandson a wife, and it's in the way of your eyes? You just hope that your brother will have a hard time?"

Jia Lian sighed: "It's fine if it's someone else's family, but how can the old lady think about inviting Cheng'en Gong's mansion? It's the former empress's natal family. Have you ever seen a wife's natal family marry a concubine's natal family?"

Snapped!
Jia Shi directly threw the teacup on the table at Jia Lian's feet: "What kind of wife and concubine's house, Yuan Chun is the imperial concubine, the lord of the first palace!"

"That's also a concubine's room! Could it be that the old lady wants your majesty to think that our family is disrespectful, so that the elder sister will be laughed at in the palace? Don't forget, the imperial concubine is in charge of the phoenix seal in the palace."

Jia Lian didn't flinch at all, and directly retorted: "One more thing, how many girls does the old lady want to see? You have given Baoyu such a big show, which is beyond the scale of the draft. What? Are you planning to let the Ministry of Rites and the capital People from the procuratorate impeached our family without respect, are they exceeding the rules and being rude?"

Ordinary people did not dare to build houses higher than the Forbidden City. In order to impress their grandchildren, their grandmother made a show that almost surpassed the emperor's draft. Jia Lian felt a chill down his spine when he thought of this.

Seeing the cold light in the eyes of the grandson in front of her, Jia Shishi suddenly felt that it was not Jia Lian sitting in front of her, but Jia Daishan appeared in front of her again.

In a daze, she didn't know how to answer Jia Lian's question.

"Old lady, it's not that my grandson doesn't want Baoyu to have a good marriage. It's that Baoyu can't succeed in martial arts. How can other people look at Baoyu who can only mess around with rouge."

Jia Lian sighed, and persuaded him sincerely: "If you have such a thought, you might as well teach Baoyu well, even if he goes to be a scholar and comes back, I, as an older brother, can find him a better marriage." Otherwise, Second Uncle is a fifth-rank civil servant, and Baoyu doesn’t even have any fame. How can he be worthy of the noble girls you picked?”
