No one can disturb my retirement life in the Red Mansion

"Old lady, please accept the order." Eunuch Xia noticed that except for Jia Jue, everyone else's faces were as silent as death. He hurriedly stepped forward and handed the order to Ou Mengmeng with both hands.

Ou Mengmeng came back to her senses, kowtowed and thanked her, and took the tray. When he was helped up, he couldn't help but look back at Jia Jue. When he was talking about Jia Jue's marriage, he mentioned Shi Xiangyun. Didn't he secretly find the new emperor to make Meng Yin happy?
Jia Xuan understood what the old lady meant and wanted to know if he had said something to the emperor. He shook his head hastily. This really had nothing to do with him. I believe Meng Yin wouldn't do it either. After she was given the marriage, she kept herself to herself and prepared her marriage carefully, never daring to mess around.

Ou Mengmeng thought about it. Her own children still have this kind of trust, so this is the meaning of the royal family again. Turning to Xia Shouzhong, "Old Prime Minister, may I ask why Your Majesty thought of granting Jue'er a marriage?"

Xia Shouzhong was so interested in watching the Jia family's drama that he hurriedly drove people away. He also supported Ou Mengmeng, "Are you not satisfied with the old lady?"

Ou Mengmeng glanced at Xia Shouzhong. If this man didn't have such a gossipy face, she would have almost believed him. He was concerned about her. After thinking about it, he said, "The blood relationship is closer. After all, it was passed down from a vine. Looking back, I am afraid that people will say that I force my grandson to force my niece and grandniece, which makes people laugh."

"Look at what the old lady said, who in the capital knows about your conduct? You are most selfless, polite and law-abiding. Your Majesty and your empress also want to share your worries, so they specially combined their horoscopes. You are truly a god chosen among ten thousand. Couple."

Ou Mengmeng was startled for a moment. She looked at Xia Shouzhong's face and hesitated, "Choose one out of ten thousand?"

"Of course, the empress knows that you are most worried about the marriages of your grandchildren and granddaughters. She never dares to make the final decision on the marriage of girls. As for brother Jue, she has chosen several of them, and even specially married them all. Only the county master is the most suitable. No, it should be said that there is nothing more suitable." Xia Shouzhong's hint was obvious.

Ou Mengmeng nodded, and now she understood the meaning. He Ying is a rational child. She knows her own thoughts, so she will not let the emperor issue an edict without consulting her. Then the edict can only mean that firstly, she cannot stop it, and secondly, it is probably because of these two , it’s really a bad fate from a long time ago.

"Thank you for your hard work, I will go back to the palace to thank you." Ou Mengmeng nodded, which was regarded as a confession. She casually handed the imperial edict to Jia She who was busy coming to help her.

Jia Zheng and Jia Xuan breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the old lady like this. They understood what the old lady meant at the beginning, so even if people often came to match match with Jia Jue recently, they were cautious and careful. But it is different now. This is a royal marriage. Since there is no way to change it, just accept it honestly. As for other things, we’ll talk about them later.

Alas, Mr. Meng is still looking for a strong in-law for Jia Jue. He also said that it is difficult to find a match for their family. Now it is true that everything is really difficult when the royal family is involved.

There is no dissatisfaction from Jia She and his son. Jia Lian mainly feels that he has nothing to do with him, although he has really watched Jia Jue grow up, and his relationship really exceeds that of his own brother Jia Cong. However, he didn't think much about who to marry. Because it is clear that what he said does not count.

As for Jia She, he has always been the smartest in the family, and he immediately connected it with the recent events outside. The royal family did not want the Jia family to have anything to do with the courtiers. Do we really want the Jia family to be left alone? The question is, what's the use of the Jia family being left alone? I feel a little sad and feel that the old lady is really pitiful. After receiving the imperial edict, he hurriedly asked someone to give him a reward. He casually thrust the imperial edict into Jia Lian's hand and quickly supported the old lady who had been sullen.

Xia Shouzhong pulled Jia She away and gave him a kiss. Is there anyone who would be so obedient to the imperial edict? The fault is yours, try it with someone else, why don’t you say you have no superiority? He helped the old lady and said, "Old lady, what does it mean to be close by blood? Aren't the four families in Jinling always related to each other by marriage?" Jia She and Xia Shouzhong are close friends, so they don't care. Thinking about it, they still have to obey the imperial edict. Dear, he hurriedly snatched it back from his son's hand and placed his hands on the incense table. He felt that this was enough, so he hurriedly ran to catch up with the old lady and Xia Shouzhong.

Jia Zheng and Jia Lian looked at each other. Jia Lian silently held the imperial edict in both hands, carefully invited it back to Rongxi Hall, put the incense table on it, and waited for the evening to put it back in the box and put it in the small warehouse dedicated to storing the imperial edict.

Jia Lian pursed his lips and snickered. Someone once said that Jia Lian was a bit slippery, but he didn't expect that after his experience in the military, he was now a bit more cautious.

Jia Jue was not stupid. He came over and asked, "Is the old lady unhappy?"

"That's not true. The old lady has a noble temperament and is afraid that you will think that Xiangyun is her niece and grandniece, which will make you dissatisfied. Of course, the more important point is that now that Xiangyun is the head of the county and has a huge fortune, she wants you to marry her. , the old lady is also afraid that people will say that she even eats her own family's poor family. This is also not good for your reputation; thirdly, you want to teach, and she originally wanted to find a scholar to be your father-in-law, so that in the clear stream, You also have something to rely on." Jia Xuan hurriedly explained, it can't be spread that the old lady doesn't like Xiangyun, right? Besides, we can't let Jia Jue have a grudge.

"It's the emperor's wish now." Jia Jue felt a little bored after hearing this. He didn't think about what happened behind Xiang Yun at all. Fortunately, the marriage was granted by the royal family. If it were really an engagement in his own family, he would feel too embarrassed to meet anyone.

"That's right. Besides, the old lady loves you too much, but she also doesn't think about who else is easy to get along with except our family. She has really eaten up Xiangyun to the point where nothing is left. How can she be worthy of my cousin? , Cousin's spirit in heaven?" Jia Juan is so good at talking, he can persuade Jia Jue to come back without even three turns.

"Yes, yes, sister Xiangyun is carrying a huge treasure. It is indeed too dangerous in this world. The emperor is really compassionate, and the old lady is so kind, and she will not refuse." Jia Jue was really moved. , hurriedly clenched his fists with a look of joy on his face.

"So, the old lady is still stuck. She herself often said, 'No one talks behind anyone's back, and no one talks behind anyone's back.' It's up to them to say whatever they want. As long as our family has a clear conscience." Jia Xuan I feel that Jia Jue is indeed a good boy and how easy it is to lie.

And Jia Jue was persuaded, but Xia Shouzhong in the west still hadn't solved his doubts? What does it mean to be too close by blood? I can understand what was passed down from a vine, but to put it bluntly, the old lady’s surname is Shi, but now she is Jia Shi’s family, and her crime is not worse than that of a married woman. Now it is said that they were passed down from a vine from the Shi family. , I don’t know what the descendants of the Jia family think.

Ou Mengmeng also said that it was not the intention of the Jia family and the Shi family that the four families were in-laws to each other. For example, two aunts and nephews from the Wang family married into the Jia family, but one married into the second wife and the other married into the first wife. There is no such thing as mixed blood. But he and Xiangyun's grandfather are biological siblings, and Xiangyun's father and Jia Jue's father are direct cousins. Even if it was passed down to Xiang Yun and Jia Jue's generation, they were not out of the fifth server, so it was still a bit inappropriate to get married.

"Just for this?"

What can I say? By the way, I wanted to buy some medicine today, but there was none downstairs in the company. How sad!
