The Second Master of the Red Chamber

Chapter 444 Baochai and Ji
In this era, any knighthood, no matter how big or small, is something worthy of publicity and celebration.

Wang Xifeng knew that this matter could not be hidden from anyone, so she never thought of hiding it. After returning to Rongguo Mansion, she told the happy event in front of Jia Mu and others.

Mother Jia and the others were surprised, and then they were overjoyed.

Although Daiyu was granted the title of the lowest rank of baroness, and it cannot be hereditary, that is, it will not bring other benefits to the family and others.But because of its rarity and particularity, it is more talked about than a man's title.

After all, men's titles are the mainstream, and there are many varieties and types, but women's titles are only a few.And it was almost wrapped up by the noble daughter of the Tian family.

Those who can be exiled to the people are very few.

The fact that the Lin family can get one can be said to be smoke from the ancestral grave.

No, smoke has long been rising from the Lin family's ancestral grave.He was granted the title of Liehou from the ancestors of the Lin family, and found Hualang from Daiyu's father, Lin Ruhai, and he has smoked twice.This is the third time!

It's a pity, how come the Lin family is extinct, wasting this glory and holy family in vain.

Aunt Xue smiled and said to Mother Jia and the others: "I have lived half my life, but this is the first time I have seen such a thing. When I was in Jinling City, I heard that the old lady of the Zhen family was a very noble person. There is a title, and it is said that it is still the county lord.

Therefore, her family is so noble, and its style is not comparable to other families. "

Even the female descendants of the Jia family, most of them are relatively unfamiliar with the title of female title.Because in their impression, if a woman wants to obtain an extraordinary status, the only option is to order, and the elders will not take the initiative to talk about the Duchess, because it is too far away.

At this time, I heard from Aunt Xue that the old lady of the Jia family, the old lady of the Zhen family, actually has a title, and she is also the head of the county!It sounds like he is much taller than Daiyu's country lord, so they all asked.

At this time, Jia's mother looked cheerful, and smiled at Aunt Xue: "Don't say you are rare, even I have lived for more than 70 years, and I have only seen a few cases, each of which is either from an extremely prominent family background, or People who have great blessings themselves.

As for the old lady of the Zhen family, she was a celebrity in the country when she was young, and she was the "Lord of Xiu'an County" proclaimed by the Taizu. At that time, her name in the capital was even louder than ordinary princesses and princesses.

It's just that after she got married, few people mentioned her title.

However, her noble status was bought by her father with his life, and others would not envy her. "

In a casual tone, Jiamu told some of the past years.In his words, he showed no envy towards the old lady of the Zhen family.

It's true, before Mother Jia got married, she was the daughter of the founder of the country, and after she got married, she became a top-notch noble lady.

To be honest, her status as the Duke's wife may not necessarily be lower than that of the other county lord.

Besides, the old lady of the Zhen family was more beautiful than her when she was not out of the cabinet, but the man she married was not as good as her.

Women, in the end, are not as important as men, sons, grandchildren, and others.

Now, she herself is the Grand Duke of the First Grade, her eldest granddaughter is a dignified concubine, and her eldest grandson is a dignified Marquis.

What kind of scenery and glory is this?

On the other hand, the old lady of the Zhen family, since the death of Taizu, the scenery of the Zhen family has changed every year.The situation of the Zhen family now depends entirely on her alone.

When she also enters the soil, the Zhen family will not be able to compare with the Jia family at all.

Speaking of the joy, Jia's mother, for the first time, taught everyone in the hall the way of the female title.

She didn't say it before because there was no need to say it.Now that her granddaughter has also obtained one, of course she wants everyone to understand how hard-won the duchess is.

A person as noble as Jia's mother received the teaching in public, whether it was the maids and servants, the master's grandma and girls, and even the Xue family's mother and daughter, they all listened carefully.After all, such an opportunity is rare.

There was a lot of laughter and emotions, and it was hard to tell how many people were happy and how many people were envious. It wasn't until Wang Xifeng told about Jia Lian's going to the south of the Yangtze River on the emperor's errand that everyone shifted their focus.

Although I feel that Jia Lian will go out again not long after returning home, but fortunately, this is already normal for Jia Lian, and there are not too many accidents for the family.

On the contrary, Jia's mother was surprised and said: "Yu'er's father is dead. I also said that I don't feel relieved to let Yu'er go back home alone. I want to arrange who will follow. Now that Lian'er is going to Jiangnan, isn't she Can Yu'er go south with him?"

Wang Xifeng smiled and said: "What the old lady said is not true. Our second master Lian has thought of everything about Lin girl's affairs, so why should our ancestors worry about it?"

Jia's mother listened to Moran, of course she could hear Wang Xifeng's jokes, and she could also guess that maybe this job was exactly what Jia Lian asked for.

But others, such as Baochai and others, were a little surprised by Wang Xifeng's tone of voice.

Although Daiyu is Jia Lian's cousin, she is a girl who has not left the court. Wang Xifeng's words are somewhat inappropriate.

Before they could figure it out, Jia Baoyu suddenly said loudly: "Since the ancestors are worried about Sister Lin, why don't I follow Sister Lin and help Uncle Lin's coffin back home together."

Jia Baoyu didn't care what title Daiyu was awarded, he only heard that Daiyu was going to carry Lin Ruhai's coffin back to his hometown, and he was very reluctant. Seeing the opportunity, he prayed.

His words made everyone else laugh.

Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang even put on a straight face to persuade them.Even before Daiyu was promised to Jia Lian, Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang would not have let Jia Baoyu go south with Daiyu to suffer, let alone now.

Mrs. Wang wished that Daiyu could stay away from Jia Baoyu.And Jia's mother was also thinking about how to let her deliberately cultivate the relationship between the two children to become more flat.

Mother Jia didn't want Jia Lian to feel bad for Jia Baoyu because of pestering Daiyu.

Jia's mother was still thinking that she would count on Jia Lian to take care of Jia Baoyu in the future.

Jia Baoyu just wanted to fight for something, but in fact he had no plans, such as how to arrange the road, how to deal with the Lin family when he arrived in Suzhou, and so on.Therefore, after being coaxed and frightened by Jia Mu and others, he could only give up resentfully.

After comforting Jia Baoyu, Mother Jia didn't want to talk about Jia Lian and Daiyu anymore, because she turned her head and saw Baochai with smooth skin and plump appearance, her eyes lit up slightly, and she said with a smile: "I heard that the latter is Bao girl. child?"

"Back to the old lady, the latter is indeed her birthday."

Mother Jia laughed and said, "These few days, I feel that the house is quieter, and I am looking for something lively. By the way, girl Bao has given birth, how old is she?"

"Go back to the old lady, it's fifteen."

Hearing Aunt Xue's reply, Mother Jia looked at Baochai and nodded, "Well, yes, the fifteenth day is a big day for her, so I can't let it go. I just like Baochai who is dignified and sensible. , better than the three girls in our family.

If the concubine doesn't mind, let me help Bao girl with her birthday. How about we get together and have fun together?Don't worry, I don't let you pay money, it's rare for me to hurt Bao girl once, and I will bear all the expenses, hehehe. "

These days, because of Lin Ruhai's relationship, they didn't even celebrate the Lantern Festival properly.Now that Lin Ruhai's first seven days are about to pass, the house should be lively and lively, and the atmosphere should be changed.

Faced with Jia's mother's enthusiasm, Aunt Xue naturally evaded and politely. Seeing Jia's mother's insistence, she was not easy to disobey, so she could only agree with Baochai.

Then Jia's mother asked again, what kind of drama did Baochai like to watch and what did she like to eat, so that she could ask someone to do it.

Baochai couldn't evade it, thinking that Jia Mu was getting old and always liked to watch lively dramas and eat softer dishes, so she followed suit and said a few words.After hearing this, Jia's mother was even happier, and immediately ordered Wang Xifeng to prepare according to Baochai's instructions, and made Wang Xifeng "complain" again, saying that Jia's mother only kept her word of mouth, and did the dirty work, but in the end it was not left to her. The handling of it caused the whole house to laugh, so I don't need to say much.
