The Second Master of the Red Chamber

Chapter 445 Mrs. Wang's Awakening
But she said that after Rongqingtang left, Mrs. Wang asked Aunt Xue to sit in her room, and Baochai followed.

During the gossip, it was inevitable to talk about Daiyu's ennobling, which aroused Aunt Xue's emotion again and again.

A fourth rank, a small title that cannot be inherited, is nothing to the Jia family.After all, even Mrs. Wang, who has the lowest order in the two mansions, is a fourth rank.

But for the Xue family, it is very enviable.Because what the Xue family lacks is a person with a noble status to support them.

When the master of the Xue family was not dead, although his title was low, he was at least in the emperor's pocket and belonged to the "emperor's people".

Today's Xue Pan is only registered in the household department.Moreover, because the Xue family was weak, they were excluded in the household department, and many things that should have been purchased by the Xue family were taken away by others.

Regarding this, Xue Pan could only scold behind his back a few times, and Aunt Xue, mother and daughter, could only watch with their own eyes, and there was no good way.

In fact, if it wasn't for the sake of the Jia family, I'm afraid whether Xue Pan's title of household department can be kept is another matter.

At this time, if any of Xue Pan and Baochai can obtain a title, even if it is the lowest rank that cannot be inherited, Aunt Xue will wake up laughing when she falls asleep.

The wealth of the Xue family has been accumulated enough due to the hard work of several generations.

So Aunt Xue didn't care too much about the palace's business being snatched away by others.She is more concerned about whether she can hold on to the accumulation of several generations of the Xue family.

Who knew Mrs. Wang hesitated after hearing Aunt Xue's envious words.Seeing Aunt Xue's questioning, she said: "I think that it's not entirely because of her father that Miss Lin was able to get this holy family and was conferred the honorary title..."

When Mrs. Wang said so, Aunt Xue and Baochai were naturally more curious, and asked what else was going on inside.

According to their understanding, the only thing Daiyu can make the emperor remember her is that she has an excellent father.This is also the reason why although everyone envied Daiyu before, it was not too strange.

After all, she is Tanhualang's daughter.

Just like in later generations, a doctor's daughter was admitted to Qingbei. Although everyone envied her, she would not find it strange.After all, people have that foundation.

Moreover, Wang Xifeng also said that it was indeed because of Lin Ruhai.

Mrs. Wang has been thinking about this issue since she was in Rongqingtang, and now she is not hiding it from her closest and trusted sister.

"There's one thing you don't know, Miss Lin's father, before she died, promised Miss Lin to Lian'er as the second wife..."

As soon as they opened their mouths, Aunt Xue and Baochai stared at each other with wide eyes, unable to hide their shock.

Now that she opened her mouth, Mrs. Wang simply told her sister and niece about this matter and what she knew before and after.

Including Daiyu's status as a "noble concubine", including Jia Lian's desire to marry Daiyu in a formal way.

Aunt Xue was silent, and Baochai was also silent.

After a while, Aunt Xue finally figured out the reason. Just as she was about to speak, she remembered something and asked, "Does Baoyu know about this?"

Aunt Xue has been in Beijing for more than a year, and she is also very concerned about Jia Baoyu, a nephew.She could also see that Jia Baoyu and Daiyu had an unusual relationship since childhood.

Mrs. Wang paused, "The old lady will not let this matter be made public for the time being. She said that Lin girl is still young, and she will talk about it a few years later, after her filial piety has passed. So, as long as you know, it is the last It’s best not to tell outsiders.”

Only then did Aunt Xue understand, she nodded, and skipped this point.In Aunt Xue's opinion, not to mention that Jia Baoyu and Daiyu are just children, whether they know how to like these two words, even if they really like the word, marriage is the order of their parents and the matchmaker's words.

Even if Jia Baoyu was unhappy when he found out, there was nothing he could do about it, other than making a fuss.

So Aunt Xue laughed and said: "My sister told me about this, and I understood.

What my sister said is right, although I don't know the status of Lin Yatou and her father in front of the saint, but it should not be enough to win a title for Lin Yatou.

Otherwise, when Lin Yatou and her father were alive, why didn't Lin Yatou ask for it?

On the contrary, Brother Lian, since we came to Beijing, we have been hearing about how he was favored by the sage, not only was he constantly assigned to do big and small errands, but now he is even conferred the title of Marquis.

So, if he really wants to give Lin girl an identity, it is really possible to do it! "

"Really, you think so too?"

Mrs. Wang was a little excited immediately, and she had been suspicious for a long time, but she couldn't make up her mind.Hearing that my sister thought the same way, I immediately felt that it was almost the same.

Otherwise, why would Lin Ruhai have been dead for six or seven days, and why did Jia Lian just come into the palace and help Daiyu get it back as a reward?

All this indicates that this matter has something to do with Jia Lian.

Aunt Xue saw the change in Mrs. Wang's expression, but guessed something about her sister's thoughts.

She hesitated for a moment, and said casually: "Sister, in my opinion, if a family wants to be truly prosperous, the entire Jia family must be the family of their sons.

Brother Lian's current momentum, isn't it just in line with the old saying, the dragon soars to the sky and soars to the sky?
Although he is not his sister's son, what is rare is that he is very close to his family members, and he is also very respectful and friendly to his brother-in-law and Baoyu.

There are such children in the family, no matter how many families, it is a good thing that they can't even dream of.

Naturally, Baoyu was also a very noble person, his father was an official in the court, and his elder sister was a noble concubine in the palace. There were not many people with more noble status than him in the world.

However, if my sister wants Baoyu to live a peaceful and prosperous life, that is naturally enough.

But if you want him to work hard outside like Brother Lian, I'm afraid he doesn't like doing this kind of thing very much.Even if it is a sister and brother-in-law, it is not difficult to find him an official position in the future, but he must be willing to work hard.

Well now, Brother Lian happens to be extremely talented and lucky in terms of career and economics.As long as Brother Lian's official career continues to be prosperous, in the future, even if Baoyu is more lazy, with such a cousin to take care of him, it will be enough to support his sister and brother-in-law.

This is also a relationship that other people can't even envy.

Therefore, my sister should take advantage of the time when the old lady is still there to let Baoyu and Brother Lian get closer. In the future, it will be beneficial to both of them...

Look at me, but I'm talking too much, sister, don't take offense. "

That is to say, the two sisters had a good relationship since they were young, so Aunt Xue dared to insinuate Mrs. Wang on this sensitive topic.

Of course she knew that Mrs. Wang didn't want Jia Lian to have a future in her heart.Because Jia Lian is promising, it means that she, Jia Zheng and everyone in the second room must move out of the Duke's mansion after the death of Mrs. Jia's mother.

It's human nature, she can understand.

However, if Jia Lian is only promising, suppression may be useful.

It's just that the current situation is that Jia Lian is not just promising, but he is almost going to heaven!

Not only does he wear his entire status as a marquis, but he can also pass it on to his second wife as a concubine. Is this something that ordinary people can do?
Seeing that her sister seemed to be waking up, Aunt Xue naturally did not hesitate to mention it.

Their Xue family was able to withdraw from Jinling because of Madam Wang's relationship, and went to Beijing to hide in peace, so she didn't want Madam Wang and Jia Lian and other "fairies" to fight, because there was a high probability of failure.

If her sister, Mrs. Wang, loses, she will have no choice but to leave the Jia family and seek refuge with her brother, Prince Teng.

Wang Ziteng is also a military officer and is away all year round.She didn't believe that sister-in-law could treat their family sincerely like a real sister.

Mrs. Wang only saw Aunt Xue's cautious but pointed words, and she understood Aunt Xue's intentions.

She took Aunt Xue's hand, patted it, and let out a long breath in her heart.

She was really made a township monarch by Daiyu, and she was terrified later.

In the past, because I watched Jia Lian grow up from a young age, I was used to the contempt for Jia Lian in my heart.

Although Jia Lian performed miracles many times later, she was able to relieve her fears on the grounds that she was only relying on the light of her ancestors.

But what happened with Jia Baoyu in Shuiyue Nunnery made her see that Jia Lian had no ill intentions towards Jia Baoyu, which made her want to ease the relationship with Jia Lian.

But she just wanted to save everyone's face, but she didn't really give in.

That's right, she is the birth mother of a noble concubine, how can it be possible to make her admit defeat?

But to this day, when Jia Lian likes Daiyu, she can overcome the difficulties that Lin Ruhai, Jia Mu, etc. seem to her to be impossible to overcome, and get Daiyu.Moreover, he can also give Daiyu a title, the purpose, perhaps just to allow him to marry Daiyu with a big gift in an open and aboveboard manner?

What kind of holy family and ability can this be done?
No wonder, every time he went to see Yuan Chun in the palace, Yuan Chun would ask Jia Lian a little bit, and let her befriend Jia Lian overtly and secretly.

Now her closest sister since she was a child is also persuading her that this world is ultimately dominated by men's families, so what else can she lie to herself?
Yuanchun is noble, it is undeniable.Because even if Jia Lian meets Yuan Chun, he needs to salute first.

In formal occasions, even kneeling is required.

However, what Yuanchun can bring to the family, apart from the immeasurable value of honor, on the surface, is to reward the family with some palace items every year.That's all.

On the contrary, in order to build a palace for her, the family almost paid for everything...

Looking at Jia Lian again, how many years has it been since the incident?The people below said that there was no room for all the belongings in Sister Feng's house!

Let's not talk about it, he can even get a title for someone else, and it's still for a little girl?

He can get Lin Yatou a title of Duchess, right? As long as he is willing, he can also get one for Baoyu in the future...

It has to be said that Mrs. Wang's thinking is still very active.

Just because of Daiyu's matter, I can immediately think of the issue I am most concerned about.

Jia Baoyu lacks nothing but an official status!This is also the reason why she and Jia Zheng were able to unite in the process of forcing Jia Baoyu to study.

The title of title is too difficult, and it is easier to win an official position through the imperial examination.After all, Jia Zheng was not as respectable as the old man of the country. He could wait until his death and let the emperor reward him with a decent official status.

This is the only option when the title is hopeless.

Now I suddenly discovered that the title of title is not so high and unattainable!

Even Miss Lin can get one, why not her Baoyu?

Although she also knew that getting a title for Jia Baoyu was more difficult than getting one for Daiyu.But, there's always a chance, isn't it?
Coincidentally, because Jia Lian became more and more powerful, she often couldn't even sleep well, and occasionally had nightmares!
It's time to give yourself a step down...

Mrs. Wang is also an honorable woman who likes to be rich and not to take risks.

As long as Jia Lian can accommodate their mother and children, why does she have to fight Jia Lian?
Thinking about it carefully, the conflict of interests with Jia Lian is not as sharp as before.Lian'er was definitely the one who built the Duke's mansion, and as for the family property of the second room in the hands of the Duke, with Jia Lian's current ability, he would not care too much about it.

The big deal is that they will suffer a bit at that time, and the two rooms will be divided equally.Anyway, Rongguo Mansion, apart from Chizao Mansion, all the family assets are only worth a few hundred thousand taels.

In the past, she was afraid that Jia Lian would snatch them all back, but now she is not so worried.

Perhaps Baoyu's father was right in thinking, and being gentle with Lian'er was the right way.

The only thing that worries her is that in the future, Lian'er will find out about Mrs. Yang's incident, and there are some reasons for her...

Not afraid at all.

One thing, she only moved her mouth at the beginning, and didn't do anything.On the other hand, Yang has been dead for two years, and that incident will probably never be revealed again, let alone her.

After thinking about it, Mrs. Wang only felt relaxed, and she dragged her younger sister to talk about herself for a long time before giving up.
