The journey of the heavens by Jia Huan, the salted fish

Chapter 91 My Cousin
Mrs. Wang took the golden lock and watched it carefully.

I saw that the golden lock was brilliant and very bright.

There are eight seal characters engraved on the golden lock, but Mrs. Wang doesn't know it.

She asked, "What's the word on it?"

Xue Baochai replied softly: "Never leave and never give up, and my youth will last forever."

Mrs. Wang was surprised, and then smiled happily.

"These eight characters match the characters on Baoyu's jade. They are a pair."

Aunt Xue also smiled: "Isn't it?"

Xue Baochai's face flushed with shame, but her eyes showed joy.

It seems that my aunt is very satisfied with being her daughter-in-law.

Mrs. Wang returned the golden lock to Xue Baochai, and the three of them stopped talking about matching.

They have already tacitly agreed, so there is no need to say more.

The three chatted about other topics to pass the time.

The servant girl came in to report that Heping'er from Zhou Rui's family came to see Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang was surprised: "Why did they come together? What happened to Feng girl? Let them in."

Heping'er from Zhou Rui's family came in together and bowed to the three of them, only then did Zhou Rui's family speak.

"Madam, do you still remember Wang Gou'er's family?"

Mrs. Wang naturally couldn't remember, so Zhou Rui's family reminded her about the relationship between Wang Gou'er's family and the Wang family.

Mrs. Wang suddenly had an impression.

"It turned out to be their home, but it's been a long time since we saw each other."

Zhou Rui's family said: "They came all the way to pay their respects, and the slaves didn't want them to come here for nothing, so they took them to meet Lian's second grandmother. Lian's second grandmother asked Miss Ping to ask his wife if she would like to see them."

Mrs. Wang was not interested in seeing poor relatives, and said: "If you see them, you don't have to. After all, you are relatives. In this way, you can give them twenty taels of silver, which is a little bit of my heart."

Zhou Rui's family agreed.

Aunt Xue said, "Since I'm a relative of the Wang family, I can't pretend not to know. Tongxi, go to our yard and get twenty taels of silver and send it to Feng girl."

Tong Xi quickly agreed, and followed Zhou Rui's Heping'er out of the courtyard.

Xue Baochai did not express any opinions throughout the whole process, and none of the three masters took this matter to heart.

Jia Huan saw Zhou Rui's family leading a pair of grandparents to Wang Xifeng's yard.

The old woman looked quite young, her head was already covered with white hair, and her face was even more dimpled.

But this person's waist is straight, he walks with wind, and he looks healthy and energetic.

The child was only four or five years old, with a tiger head and a tiger brain, and looked a little cute.

Looking at the commoner clothes on them, Jia Huan understood their identities.

This is Grandma Liu and Ban'er?

After reading the book, Jia Huan had a good impression of Grandma Liu.

However, he did not go up to meet Grandma Liu.

Grandma Liu was still with Zhou Rui's family, so he didn't want to arouse Mrs. Wang's suspicion.

Moreover, whether Grandma Liu came to Rongguo Mansion this time, no matter whether she was looked down upon or not, she finally achieved her goal and gained substantial benefits.

The money Wang Xifeng gave to Grandma Liu was enough for Grandma Liu and their family to live on for several years.

After Jia Huan glanced over there again, he turned and left.

He is going to see Kong Weixuan today.

This one is now in charge of planting sweet potatoes and corn.

Although Jia Huan wrote about the planting methods of the two crops, Kong Weixuan still wanted to meet him and learn more about the two crops from here.

After wandering around the street, Jia Huan came to the secret station and saw a handsome young man.

Kong Weixuan was quite handsome, with a gentle temperament, and he did not seem at all to be someone who could forcefully break away from the family.

Jia Huan chatted with him for a while, and found that gentleness is just a disguise of this person, who looks gentle on the surface, but in fact this person is very tough in his ways.

Jia Huan admired Kong Weixuan very much.

Suddenly, an idea popped up in his mind.

Jia Huan remembered that Kong Weixuan was still single now!
Kong Weixuan's grade is naturally not young, already twenty years old.

In this ancient time, it was already an older unmarried person.

He had a fiancée before, but after he left the family with his mother, the fiancé divorced.

After that, not many people were willing to marry Kong Weixuan.

Kong Weixuan's marriage was thus delayed.

This made Kong's mother very worried, and she wanted to make Kong Weixuan a peasant girl as his wife.

But Kong Weixuan was unwilling.

He is arrogant and has high demands on his wife.

He hopes to marry a virtuous girl who is well-educated and reasonable. He will not marry such a wife.

Kong Weixuan would rather lack than abuse.

Jia Huan thought that Jia Yingchun was fourteen years old and would be married in two years.

With Jia Huan's status, he couldn't stop Jia Amnesty, his own father, from marrying his own daughter to Sun Shaozu.

Then how did Jia Yingchun get married before?

Jia Huan said: "Master Kong, I have a cousin. Although she is only a concubine, she has been taught since childhood, understands poetry and books, and is best at playing chess."

Kong Weixuan raised his eyebrows, he also likes to play chess.

When Jia Huan spoke, he understood what Jia Huan meant.

Thinking of the emperor's dislike for veteran nobles, Kong Weixuan originally wanted to refuse directly, but when he heard that the girl not only understands poetry and books, but is also good at playing chess, Kong Weixuan was moved.

Look at the little boy in front of you again.

This one was also from the Xungui Mansion, but was reused by the emperor.

It seems that as long as he has the ability, the emperor doesn't care about the background of his subordinates.

What's more, she's just a concubine in the Duke's mansion, and she's married, so she has no connection with her natal family.

Something happened to her natal family, and the married daughter could not be involved.

Kong Weixuan smiled: "Master Jia and his cousin have a good relationship?"

Jia Huan nodded: "My cousin is gentle and kind. She takes good care of my cousin, even better than my own sister."

He took out his purse and showed it to Kong Weixuan.

"This is a purse that my cousin made for me."

Kong Weixuan was amazed when he saw that the purse was exquisitely made, the embroidery was elegant, and the stitches were fine.

This girl has figured out her own aesthetics, and the female worker is also very good.

Looking at Jia Huan's appearance, even if she is a cousin, not a real sister, she should look good.

"Very good." Kong Weixuan said.

Seeing his reaction, Jia Huan knew that the man agreed.

This marriage is more than half done.

You said Rongguo Mansion would not agree to marry Yingchun to a poor official without family support?
Jia Huan said that was not a problem.

He will not consult the Rongguo Mansion at all, he will start from the emperor.

Exchange one's own merits for the emperor's imperial edict of bestowing marriage.

With the holy purpose of bestowing marriage, the Rongguo Mansion has to be willing even if it is unwilling.

He believed that the emperor was very happy to issue this marriage decree.

The contribution of offering new grains was too great, and the emperor didn't know how to reward Jia Huan.

At least at the current stage, he cannot reward Jia Huan openly.

But it is not good to not reward, so Jia Huan asked for an insignificant reward in exchange for credit.

The emperor is a fool if he doesn't agree!
