No one can disturb my retirement life in the Red Mansion

Chapter 485 Choking

A few days later, when they were waiting to take a rest, Jia Xuan and Jia Jue brought four-color gifts together, plus a veteran's book hidden by the old lady, and personally delivered them to the Wang family.

Wang Ziteng already knew it. The old lady did not change a word and sent the documents she assigned to Shuntian Mansion for filing. Wang Ziteng was satisfied with this and felt that the Jia family was very sensible.

He has not been idle these days. He has carefully observed Jia Xuan and found that except for his errands, which are not very pleasant, there is nothing else. And he is very popular in the Ministry of Punishment. Although Zhang Shangshu often scolds him, everyone knows that Zhang Shangshu regards him as his successor and takes him with him everywhere. Which one of the chief officials of the Ministry of Punishment has such an opportunity. I also feel more and more that my wife has a good idea. If my daughter chooses this, she will truly be able to rely on her for life.

At this moment, he entertained them with great enthusiasm. Jia Xuan is also a bit casual in front of the Jia family, but outside, he is still the guy who feels cold all over.

Especially after chatting with the old lady that day, I understood what the old lady meant. The Jia family does not need to stand in the court, they just need to be themselves. Mainly, it only lasted long, and now he will return to the comfortable way before!

After giving the gift, saying what needed to be said, and expressing his gratitude to his uncle, he was ready to leave. Originally, people like them who had less than a year of filial piety should not go out as guests. The first is filial piety. Your parents (relatives) are not far away, so how can you have fun? The second is respect for others. I still carry my filial piety, which would be considered unlucky at this time. It would be a bit awkward to go to someone else's house during an unlucky time.

So as soon as I entered the house, I said that I was filial and would not go greet my aunt. It was also polite not to enter the second door.

But when Wang Ziteng was reminded by Mrs. Wang, he immediately took notice. He asked Mrs. Wang to prepare a table and took them to the small study outside.

Jia Xuan is also suffering. In addition to the Jia family, there is also the Ministry of Punishment. He will not eat out, nor will he take a sip of tea. In the end, Wang Ziteng said that he would keep the meal. What should he do?

"I originally said that my uncle cherished the food he left behind, but he still has something to do with the Yamen..."

"It's okay at the Yamen. It was originally a day of rest set aside by the imperial court to spend time with your family. Don't talk about this anymore." The prince said hurriedly.

The banquet was set in the study, and Wang Ziteng poured wine for them. Jia Jue felt a little embarrassed again and hurriedly said, "Uncle!"

Jia Xuan hurriedly stood up and said, "My wife is still in love, so she would never dare to do this..."

Wang Ziteng was startled. He was a military commander and he really didn't have such messy thoughts. Looking at it now, he saw that the food and wine were quite abundant, but it was inappropriate. I immediately thought, Madam, why didn’t you think of this?

"I think they came with a first-class seat. It's the children's fault. They didn't go in to say hello to their aunt. It's extremely rude." Jia Jue retracted his hand with a busy smile.

I have to say that what Jia Jue said was very good. They should not have been left in this situation in the first place. I am afraid that they did this because they didn't know inside. It must not have been intentional. Otherwise, if word spreads, it means that Mrs. Wang Er deliberately trapped them into being unfilial!

However, Jia Jue was very happy. Jia Jue reacted quickly and directly found an excuse for Mrs. Wang. After all, this was his uncle's house. If any news really came out, the Wang family would not be the only ones to be unlucky.

The people below hurriedly removed the table and quickly replaced it with a plain table. Jia Xuan raised his eyebrows but said nothing. Just being polite, holding chopsticks, but not picking up food. He and Wang Ziteng kept talking. Preparing the banquet will not be served immediately. The Wang family first went to a table to wait for the banquet. When it was withdrawn, they could immediately replace it with a plain banquet.

The focus is on the horse! How can I change it immediately? Still steaming hot. It’s hard not to wonder if this was intentional, but what purpose does it serve? Jia Xuan didn't understand what they were thinking.

Jia Jue didn't quite understand what his uncle and eldest brother were talking about, but he just treated himself as a child and kept his head down while eating the food.

Wang Ziteng looked at his nephew. He had made progress compared to previous years and his mind was sober. It was a pity. Looking at Jia Xuan again, he became more and more satisfied. He felt that his wife had a bright eye. Although he was not a nephew, he could be a son-in-law. He rolled his eyes and thought, "It's a pity that your mother is not blessed. You are in her lap, you will definitely be blessed."

Wang Ziteng said it sincerely. I couldn't help but sigh. For such a son, no amount is too much. Thinking about how happy Jia Zheng is recently, he must be happy too.

"My nephew is not lucky enough to be able to spend some time with his wife. At least he can develop some feelings." Jia Xuan smiled and gave Wang Ziteng some soup.

Wang Ziteng just pretended that he didn't understand and nodded, "It's just a pain for you. The other children are still young and won't have much impact. It's you. You are obviously old. It's time to hurry up and get married. What should I do now? "

"I'm not in a hurry, kid." Jia Xuan smiled hurriedly.

"What are you talking about? At thirty, when your father was your age, Brother Zhu had already entered school, and someone proposed marriage." The prince hurriedly blew his beard and stared.

"Uncle, this eldest brother is not in a hurry, is he?" This Jia Jue still understands and knows that his uncle is urging the marriage. The problem is that the eldest brother's errand can be stolen, but how to deal with the marriage? No matter what, we have to wait three years, right?

"It's not impossible. If you get married within a hundred days, it's okay. It's also a great filial piety. After all, your mother hasn't gone far yet. Only when she sees you getting married and establishing a career can she go back with peace of mind." The prince said hurriedly. In this regard, he and Madam thinks differently. We need to hurry up now, but we can't let this matter drag on for three years. While the friendship between the two families is still there, while the old lady can still make the decision, the matter is settled, and then the head wives of the two families will all be members of the Wang family.

"It's unlikely. The Yue family will never agree." Jia Xuan shook his head and sighed again. Of course it would be good to get married early, but the old lady didn't agree to it. Zhao Chong, who had been engaged for a long time without seeing it, had to wait and see!

"Yue family?" Wang Ziteng looked at Jia Jue.

Jia Jue nodded but did not speak. He also knew about Meng Yin's matter, but he also knew that it was a very important matter and he couldn't talk about it outside. However, the two families had a tacit understanding. This is indeed a problem. The Meng family was not in a hurry to marry off their daughter, so how could they agree to complete the marriage within a hundred days? Now when Wang Ziteng asked, he could only nod, but still couldn't speak.

"The old lady made the decision. Because her family background is quite impressive, she originally planned to discuss the engagement slowly after returning to Beijing. Now something happened with my wife. Although the Yue family is very reasonable, it is impossible for the girl to agree to let the girl be in such a hurry for three years. We have just enough time to prepare slowly. Fortunately, the girl is also young, so she can afford to wait." Jia Xuan said slowly and leisurely.

Now Jia Xuan knows why Wang Ziteng split the majority of his share. It is so natural that they want to marry again. Is the Jia family still the Jia family six years ago? But if the Jia family was still the same six years ago, the Wang family wouldn’t look down on it, right?

　This morning, I have to help the canteen make dumplings. I like to do it, mainly during working time. Good!
