Chapter 21 The twenty-first day after being reborn as Lady Jia

Of course, before Jia She went crazy, the old lady was first disgusted by Jia She's deep admiring eyes.

She almost resisted giving Master She another beating, but she swung her newly made sandalwood cane and finally hit him a few times, "I don't want to see this old orange peel of yours, go back."

Within two days, Master She brought Jia Cong to report every day.

Since Jia Lian is loved by the old ancestor, the younger one cannot be ignored. Although Jia Cong is a concubine's son, who knows whether Lian'er will really be... Hey, he sighed, whether it was a premature death or no heirs, it made Master She very uncomfortable. The

old lady liked children very much, but she didn't take care of Jia Cong for a few days, and Aunt Zhao over there immediately brought Jia Huan to report. Within two days, Mrs. Wang also came and brought Baoyu over.

So far, the old lady has seen the difference between legitimate and illegitimate children in ancient times. Although Mrs. Wang can tolerate Aunt Zhao on weekdays, once it comes to Baoyu's interests, she will definitely not compromise.

In this way, the old lady was not in the mood to tease the children, and she drove them all back. It is said that Aunt Zhao was later assigned by Mrs. Wang to copy scriptures, and Jia Huan was punished to copy them together.

The old lady didn't say anything, who asked her to listen to the netizens' popular science "Legitimate son and illegitimate son, if the grandmother has a preference for the illegitimate son, that is the source of chaos in the family."

"Although you, old lady, have no preference now, but after a long time, people's hearts are flesh and blood, and they will always have feelings. "

This is true. After the old lady understood Jia Huan's situation, it was really a pity that a good child was raised badly. One Tanchun is strong and sensitive; the other Jia Huan is stubborn and jealous and framed Baoyu.

But Jia Huan would be jealous of Baoyu, isn't it because of the difference between legitimate and illegitimate children, and he was treated coldly by others

? Of course, Aunt Zhao also played a certain negative role in it. In particular, the old lady had studied the "curse" in Baoyu carefully and had been on guard for a long time, but Aunt Zhao could be so cruel to Baoyu, her viciousness can be imagined. Jia Huan followed her, so he could avoid being brainwashed,

but the old lady also knew that she could be nice to Tanchun, but if she was nice to Jia Huan, Mrs. Wang would be the first one to disagree.

In this way, the old lady was upset. She simply vented her anger on Jia She, saying that it was this bastard who poked the hornet's nest first, and called Jia She over to beat him up again.

Rongqing Hall was in chaos again.

Master She felt wronged, but also felt that it was a sweet burden. This "beating is love and scolding is love" was too painful. Since then, Master She's greetings have also stopped.

In this lively and bustling time, time has passed in a flash.

Jia Zheng has been working outside for a year and a half, and Rongguo Mansion is still bustling with flower viewing parties and birthday parties. In addition, the newest thing in the mansion now is the small gatherings held by the girls themselves.

Since Daiyu and Sanchun had their own small private treasury, the people below dared not gossip about them anymore. Daiyu was not a person who cared about gold and silver, and she would give a handful of money to the people below her at will, so more people were willing to run errands for Daiyu.

No one said "Baochai is generous, Daiyu is mean" anymore.

Daiyu and Sanchun also met several like-minded noble ladies in Anguo Mansion, so they would hold small banquets from time to time to invite everyone.

Li Wan and Wang Xifeng were occasionally there, and the old lady did not expect that Li Wan, who was usually dull, could have fun at this time. Sometimes, they would also invite Rong Da Niangniang from the next door.

In terms of banquets, Baochai was a little worse, after all, she was staying in Rongguo Mansion.

But she took part of the wine and fruit plates and successfully integrated into the crowd. Especially she was good-looking, knowledgeable, and thoughtful, and she could always find out what others liked, making it difficult for people to refuse.

Of course, Baochai did not think about going back to her own home with her brother and mother.

But firstly, the old man saw that her brother was ignorant of the world and took the opportunity to cheat him, causing problems in several businesses in the family. Of course, it was also because her brother was too reckless, and she, a girl, wanted to control him but couldn't.

If it weren't for the suppression of Rongguo Mansion, she would have been robbed more.

Secondly, although she was not taught by the two maids Han and Feng every day in the past year or two, she benefited a lot from occasionally hearing one or two words of advice. Moreover, she really didn't want to leave Rongguo Mansion like this.

So, she didn't mention leaving Rongguo Mansion and going home to live on her own.

One day, Mrs. Wang was talking to Aunt Xue.

She was now tense every day, and the old ancestor didn't know what he was thinking. First, Daiyu came to hurt her, then arranged for Jia Lian to buy sacrificial land, and then suddenly teased Jia Cong and Jia Huan, although it was only for a few days.

But Mrs. Wang thought that this was a warning to her, so she was tense every day. Only when she was with her sisters did she relax a little.

Just as she was talking, Zhou Ruijia came back to say that Granny Liu had been sent away.

Seeing Aunt Xue looking at her, Mrs. Wang said, "Originally, our ancestors were related, but I didn't expect that they would be so destitute now."

Aunt Xue said, "Who can tell the ups and downs? Well, let's not talk about this. I have some family things here. Although they are not expensive, they are rare. You can take them to the girls." The latter sentence was said to Zhou Ruijia.

After that, she asked Xiangling to get the box.

When the box was opened, there were twelve flowers made of gauze. "This is a new style in the palace. Give one pair to each of the three girls in your family, and one pair to Miss Lin. The rest should be given to Feng Ge."

Mrs. Wang thought it was exquisite, but when she thought of the palace, she understood what Aunt Xue meant.

She smiled and said, "Just save it for Bao."

Aunt Xue said, "Aunt, you don't know, Bao doesn't like these. She has had a cough recently and is taking pills."

"Bao seemed to be in good health in the past, why did she suddenly cough? Maybe she caught a cold," Mrs. Wang asked with concern.

"It's okay. She has a good innate foundation, but she was born with a heat poison and always coughs. Fortunately, she met a monk in her early years and gave her a prescription. Although it's trivial, the cold fragrance pills she prepared are quite effective and work immediately after taking them." Aunt Xue explained with a smile.

Mrs. Wang nodded, "That's good."

On this side, Zhou Ruijia came out of Lixiang Courtyard and went to Jiamu Courtyard first to give palace flowers to several girls.

Who knew that Daiyu and Sanchun were both practicing the new tricks taught by Aunt Feng here, while the old lady was leaning on the soft couch, listening to Yuanyang reading.

At this time, she heard that Zhou Ruijia was looking for several girls, so she called them in.

As soon as Zhou Ruijia entered the door, she hurriedly bowed and greeted. After the old lady called her, she explained her purpose.

The old lady's screen, which had not exploded for a long time, suddenly boiled -

"Fuck, the classic "sending palace flowers." "

"Oh, that's not right. Sister Lin is not the last one to send this time." "

Since several people are together, we can only send together."

At this time, Zhou Rui's wife opened the box and gave twelve palace flowers in a row.

Xichun came up to look at the palace flowers and asked, "Sister Bao hasn't been here for a while. What does she do at home?"

Zhou Rui's wife told her about Baochai's cough.

Several people showed concern for a while and decided to go see Baochai later. At this time, Xichun gave the box to the sisters to choose. Tanchun and Daiyu leaned over to take a closer look, but then looked at the palace flowers in their hands and looked at each other.

Recently, Nanny Han has talked less about laws and regulations, but from time to time she would talk about some common sense and the taboos and preferences of noble families.

It just so happened that the selection of concubines was the one that the maids were most familiar with. She once said that these days were the days for the selection of concubines in the palace. If a palace maid was selected, she would be kept on a sign. If she was not selected, she would be given a sign and rewarded with palace flowers.

So, these palace flowers...

Tanchun and Daiyu looked at each other again. At this moment, Yingchun and Xichun also thought of this section.

The four of them were silent and just picked the ones they liked.

After Zhou Rui's wife left, they started chattering. They thought that the ancestors knew all these things, so they didn't avoid them. Tanchun said, "I think Aunt Xue is happy. This palace maid can only be released after entering the palace for 25 years, which has delayed a lot of her youth."

"Then, should we wear a hairpin or not?" Xichun was entangled.

Daiyu said, "It's up to you. In this case, we should go and see Sister Bao. She can now marry on her own."

"Why don't we hold a poetry meeting tomorrow and invite Sister Bao." Xichun said.

This idea was approved by everyone, so the four of them stood up to say goodbye to the old ancestor and went to prepare the invitations.

The old lady had a stern face and said "hmm" as if everything was under control. After everyone left, she waved away the servants and asked the netizens what was going on.

Someone who looked up the information based on Daiyu and Sanchun's words came back, "It turns out that in ancient times, the three inner banners could not marry on their own. They had to report at the age of thirteen. They could only marry on their own if they were not selected in the selection. Once they were selected as palace maids, they could not leave the palace until they were twenty-five. " "

Wouldn't that make me an old aunt?" "

Yes, in ancient times, at the age of twenty-five, you couldn't get married."

"That's not necessarily the case. After all, you came from the palace." "

So, many families would try their best to prevent their daughters from being selected. '

Oh, this is what Tanchun said about Aunt Xue being happy'

'No wonder the palace flowers were given out. However, this thing is just a sign of failure, not a precious thing. '

'Looking at it this way, I was originally entangled in the fact that Daiyu was the last one to be given palace flowers. Now it seems that this thing is not as good as real gold and silver. ' After hearing

this, the old lady understood and stopped caring.

She has been keeping a close eye on Baoyu's studies during this period. She has asked Jia Zhen to manage the private school of the Jia family several times, but it was all superficial, so the old lady simply found a teacher for Jia Baoyu herself.

But Jia Zheng was not there, and even if he was, the old lady would not dare to let Jia Zheng find a teacher, let alone find a pedantic old man. As for asking Lin Ruhai for help, it is said that the black-hearted Jia Yucun was recommended by Lin Ruhai

. So, the old lady found the Duke of Anguo.

It happened that the Duke of Anguo's mansion had been close to them in the past one or two years, so she asked the Duke of Anguo to find a teacher.

But the requirements that the old lady put forward for people really made Anguogong feel embarrassed. What did she want? "Someone who can do practical things, not a fussy person; an old gentleman who once led the naughty child to the right path and is highly respected.

" Well, he would understand the "naughty child" as a dandy boy. But this one who can do practical things needs to find someone who has been an official, but the family has retired from being an official, either with a bleak career or being raised at home.

The former still needs to be promoted by families like them, and the latter, people are not willing to teach the "naughty child" at all.

There was no choice, Anguogong could only arrange Baoyu to study in his own private school.

But Baoyu was not happy. He and Anguogong's son got along well at first, because Baoyu looked at faces. Although the son was still dark, he looked good. But after getting along for a long time, Baoyu saw through this "learning maniac", who was either studying or riding and shooting.

Jia Baoyu found such a fool boring.

Especially, with Xue Pan "seducing" Jia Baoyu, he became even more restless.

In this way, the old lady could only stare at Baoyu to study.

At this time, she especially hoped that the mall could come up with a "hanging the head on the beam and piercing the thigh with a needle" or something like that.
