Chapter 274 Destined for Comedy
After waiting for Marquis Bo An to leave, Master Mei quickly sent someone to collect information about the Jia family. Over the years, I heard that the Jia family was famous, but what happened in private, the Mei family did not clear.
Facing Jia Lian's identity, Lord Mei was very satisfied. His concubine could marry such a person, even if the Jia family's reputation was not good, it could be said that his concubine was the best!After all, there are still a lot of second- and third-rank officials who are willing to marry their daughters to such people. Even if they don't give it to themselves, they can still keep their daughters' lifelong glory and wealth.
But after all, Mrs. Mei has heard about the turmoil between the Jia family and the Zhang family back then. If anyone doesn't consider this, it must be fake, so Mrs. Mei can only wait for the investigation information to be obtained. , to make a decision.
Soon the investigation came out. Seeing how cruel Jiamu and Mrs. Wang were to the big house, Mrs. Mei felt a little unhappy. He had already seen what Jia She was paying attention to, didn't she just want to borrow from the Mei family? To fight against the Wang family, but he didn't want his daughter to marry and fight openly and secretly in the future.
But Mrs. May doesn't think so!Why should her daughter suffer so much in the palace, but a concubine can live a happy life!Therefore, Mrs. Mei blew the pillow wind around Mrs. Mei, saying that she would never find such a well-matched family in the future, and that it would be a big deal to match the third girl with a few nanny from the palace. This is Mrs. Jia's method. In Gao, to be able to have the clever means of these nuns in the palace...
In short, Mrs. Mei agreed to this marriage under Mrs. Mei's pillow storm. Thinking about it, although the Jia family has a bad reputation, except for the two coveted people, the rest of the family is not bad.
Jia Amnesty was overjoyed when he found out that Mrs. Mei agreed, but he had nothing to share with him.So I can only have fun by myself.
On March 28th, it was a good day and the weather was fine. Accompanied by a matchmaker, Jia Amnesty went to the woman's house to give the dowry gift. In a box, in addition to the necessary items, eighteen sets of top-quality hair and face are prepared.Fifty bolts of clothing material, twenty sets of four-season clothes, and twenty furs.The hire price is five hundred gold, fifty hectares of land, and the pen, ink, paper and inkstone are also selected.
There are also eight calligraphy and paintings collected by Jia She, and eight antiques. The betrothal gift alone is worth 3 to 5000 taels of silver.However, these items did not cost much money. Adding the 6000 taels of silver as the bride price, the total cost was [-] taels of cash. Except for the food that needs to be ordered in advance and the food that needs to be prepared, everything else is from the treasury and Jia Amnesty. Taken from private storage.
Jia Amnesty has spent a lot of money this time!
Finish the dowry.Jia Amnesty chose an auspicious day, and according to the current situation of the Jia family, it was best to get married as soon as possible.But May and June are too rushed.The woman's dowry could not be prepared, and the house could not be tidied up. Finally, August [-] and September [-] were chosen, two auspicious days.A matchmaker was sent to interview the woman, and it was finally set on September [-]th.
In order to prevent Jia Mu from having trouble.Jia Amnesty kept Jia Lian's marriage proposal from Jia's mother. After waiting, they invited a matchmaker to come to their door. After the change, I told Mother Jia.
As soon as Jia's mother heard that she was the daughter of a high-ranking official, she thought of the dead Mrs. Zhang, and felt displeased. But in the end, Jia She was the one who decided on Lian'er's marriage.But when she heard that she was a concubine, Mother Jia gave Jia She a hard look. She didn't expect that Dafang would find a concubine to be Jia Lian's wife in order to resist her.
Originally, I was going to scold Jia Amnesty immediately, but then I thought about it, after marrying such a daughter-in-law, I will see what kind of face Dafang has in the capital. It made the emperor hate Dafang.Therefore, Mother Jia didn't say anything, but said coldly that she would do her best to prepare for the marriage and not lose face in the house.
In private, Mother Jia also sped up her actions, looking for a good second room for Jia Zheng, and choosing and choosing the maid who was released from the palace last year. She was a bit older, 26 years old, but it would be suitable to match Jia Zheng, because Jia Zheng Mrs. Wang had poisoned Mrs. Zheng, so Mother Jia didn't do anything.There are no more seeds on the left and right, so what fruit can they bear?
After Jia Amnesty reported Jia Lian's marriage to Jia's mother, he called Jia Lian to the study!
"Master, are you looking for me for something?" Jia Lian stayed outside for a while, and he became much smarter, at least the weak and incompetent Jia Jialian second master in the original book can no longer be seen!
"I've already arranged a marriage for you, do you know?" Jia Amnesty didn't gossip, and went straight to the point.
Jia Lian nodded, he naturally knew about this kind of thing, "My son has heard of it a little bit."
"Let me tell you! It's the third girl from the Mei family's concubine." Seeing Jia Lian's expression slightly changed, Jia Amnesty didn't give him a chance to speak, and said, "I know that the concubine's supporting you is wronging you! But you You should also think about the situation in our family."
Jia Lian calmed down all of a sudden, it's true that according to the current reputation of the family, people of the first and second grades who are comparable to their family look down on his family, and choosing a family whose family is too low cannot support the appearance of Jia's family.Does Jia She have any deep meaning in choosing the daughter of the concubine of the Mei family?
"Don't look down on her because she is from a concubine. If it weren't for the presence of a concubine in the palace, the third girl of the Mei family would have changed her background a long time ago! Although she is a concubine, she was brought to the aunt's place since she was a child. She went to raise her, she has good manners, appearance and personality, and the second girl of the Mei family died early, and the eldest girl went to the palace again. It is rare to see her last time, so the third girl is especially liked by Mrs. Mei, and her biological mother was also born as a good concubine , she has been liked by Mrs. Mei all her life. Therefore, even though she is a concubine, she is treated similarly to a concubine in the Mei family." It is because of this that Jia She has always been determined to marry the third girl of the Mei family. After all, if the Mei family is not too powerful, and the third girl of the Mei family is also good, according to the current Jia Lian, there are still other choices, there is no need to hang on a tree.
Looking at Jia Lian thoughtfully, Jia Amnesty continued, "I have already made an agreement with Mrs. Mei. In a few days, there will be a censor playing your second uncle at the court, regardless of his superiority or inferiority, coveting your elder brother's title. , the family is separated, the dove occupies the magpie's nest, and lives in the Rongxi Hall where the big house used to live. You have to be mentally prepared."
"Ah!" This matter was beyond Jia Lian's expectation. Jia Amnesty had revealed one or two things before, but Jia Lian saw that the big house and the second room were separated, and the second room was still living in Rongxi Hall. I thought Mother Jia suppressed this matter again!
Unexpectedly, Jia Amnesty had another trick!
"Hmph, I have let him live in Rongxi Hall for so many years, and I am worthy of him! If the old lady didn't force me, I would have submitted the memorial by myself! Lian'er, you have to understand that you are the one who revitalizes the Rongguo Mansion!" The second room has never been my hope." If it weren't for Jia's mother's "filial piety" and this famous hall, how could Jia Amnesty give up the Rongxi Hall willingly!
Seeing that Jia Lian still didn't understand, Jia Amnesty secretly told Jia Lian that the second room had to avoid taboo because of Jia Zheng's name.No one else understands better than people like them who have lived in the upper class since childhood, what kind of embarrassment they will face once they lose their power.
Jia Lian was shocked when he heard Jia Amnesty's words, saying that Jia Lian was also a hard-working child.Although Mother Jia took him to raise him, she didn't pay much attention to him at all, and was always served by a maid.And because of Jia Zhu's eagerness to learn, he has always lived in Jia Zhu's shadow, and Jia Mu and Erfang support Jia Zhu so much, he has formed a directional thinking!
That is, Jia Zhu is better than him.
But I didn't expect that I would hear such a news now, what's the use of being able to read, there are so many people who can read!Only those who can be officials are useful in this world.
Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and businessmen are not just talking for fun.
Jia Lian's eyes widened, "Then why didn't the father say anything!" It stands to reason that Jia Amnesty should have revealed the attack on the second room a long time ago!
Jia She gave Jia Lian a disdainful look, and then said: "You idiot! If I tell you, the old lady will not be more partial to the second wife, and she will not, and will try to get this title to the second bedroom! I am not so Stupid, let this matter out."
Oh I got it!
Jia Lian nodded understandingly, also following Jia Mu's wishes, wishing that everything in the world would be given to Erfang. If he knew that the third generation of Erfang's children and grandchildren would not be able to serve as officials, there would be troubles already!
But Jia Zhu...
"In case Big Brother Zhu gets his fame, this matter will be exposed!"
Jia She sneered and said, "Don't worry, wait for Zhu'er to pass the exam. I don't know that it will be many years later. By that time, you may already have the power in your hands, and the Mei family is a vegetarian. The second room wants to take it, so it's not that bad." Easy. Don't even think about it. Zhu'er's master didn't betroth his own daughter to him back then, but betrothed to another person. Now that person has passed the test, and his ranking is not bad. And you are big brother Zhu. , I don’t even have the qualifications to take the exam!”
After one sentence, Jia Amnesty didn't think Jia Zhu could get any grades in the test.
Jia Lian still had some doubts about Jia Amnesty's words, mainly because the impression was too deep before!
"Okay, don't bother with the second room, as long as you do things seriously, be smart, and let the Mei family be afraid of a Jia Zhu who will never be an official." Jia Amnesty really hated iron and steel .
Now that Jia Lian is an official, and it was bestowed by Emperor Xuande, he has more confidence in his heart. Although he did not refute Jia She's words on the surface, he secretly made up his mind in his heart to make some achievements for Jia She to see.
