Red Chamber: Bring Xue Baochai home at the beginning

Chapter 142 Qin's Burial, Ke Qing Comes Out 【Super Big Cup】

"As soon as we entered the river, we were surrounded by several big ships!"

Jia Rong and Qin Keqing and their party happened at the confluence of the canal and the Yangtze River.

"The water bandits directly forced our boat and climbed over the board."

More than half a month has passed since the incident, but when Jia Rong talked about this, she still had lingering fears.

"They killed a few people, then took the boat and let us park it on the shore of the wilderness."

At that time, he also sent people to negotiate.

The boy walked over tremblingly.

Just one sentence, and his head was chopped off with a knife.

At that time, everyone was frightened and stupid, and Jia Rong didn't dare to say anything more.

Thinking about it now, his face is still a little pale.

"At that time, we all disembarked as required, and the female relatives were the last to come out."

The scare to pee was skipped by him, but when it comes to this point, it is considered the main topic.

Jia Rong couldn't help sighing, and said: "I didn't think so, but at this moment, the bandit leader seemed to have evil thoughts."

Jia Zhen already had an ominous premonition upon hearing the words.

"Could it be that my daughter-in-law..."

Cheap bandits?
"no no!"

Jia Rong shook her head again and again when she heard the words, and said with a sad face:

"When their master and servant saw bandits approaching, they jumped into the river together!"

Wasn't it captured by water bandits?
Jia Zhen breathed a sigh of relief.

If he was kidnapped, it wouldn't sound good to say it.

"Our view was blocked by the boat at the time, and we don't know what happened to them after they jumped off."

Seeing that her father didn't seem to blame her, Jia Rong cautiously continued:
"When the water bandit is gone, I will immediately search for it."

Looking back on the situation at that time, he was somewhat puzzled.

The master and servant were too decisive.

The bandit leader just passed by and before he said what he was going to do, the two jumped into the river directly.

"It's just that the water flow there is stable, but I can't find it anyway..."

Before Jia Rong could continue talking, Jia Zhen seemed to be backfired and said angrily:

"Daughter-in-law jumped into the river to be completely innocent!"

As he said that, he kicked him head-on, kicking Jia Rong's doubts to the sky.

People also fell to the ground.

"What are you doing back here, you trash? You'd better die there!"

Jia Zhen felt great hatred in her heart.

Hate myself for not doing it sooner!

Although it wouldn't be cheap for the water bandits, it could only be cheap for the river god!
At the same time, it is inevitable to feel sad in my heart.

After all, he is really satisfied with Qin's daughter-in-law.

Here, Jia Rong was punched and kicked for a while before he managed to vent his anger.

He hurriedly arranged for people to go back to Jiangnan to inquire again.

Unexpectedly, only a few days later, the old family members Jia Rong left behind to search came back.

It turned out that Jia Rong had just left on the front foot, and fishermen found two dead bodies downstream on the back foot.

When the old family members who stayed behind went to identify it, they found that the body had already been fuzzy and smelly.

I can only vaguely recognize it from the clothes, it is Qinshi and Ruizhu.

He was buried in a hurry and brought back to the capital.

Although it is late autumn at this time, in the south of the Yangtze River, the "autumn tiger" is coming.

After soaking for so long, it is not bad to be able to distinguish the human shape.

Jia's family didn't need to look at it, they just asked someone to deal with it.

So as not to smoke the people in the house.

Both master and servant stopped in Huifang Garden behind.

After finishing her work, Jia Zhen went up and punched Jia Rong again.

"Damn cheap seed!"

"what!"

The last kick made Jia Rong fall out.

It took him a while to feel better, but he didn't dare to sit up.

I was afraid that Jia Zhen would use it to vent her anger again.

"Since the person has come back, let's do the funeral first."

Reluctantly, Jia Zhen began to arrange the funeral.

"Notify the two governments first, so that everyone in the family knows."

"Send a letter to those who are close to you, and ask someone to come and help."

Funerals are also different from inside and outside, so you have to prepare yourself a few days ago.

Notify outsiders later.

"Order someone to invite the Yin Yang Division of Qin Tianjian to choose a date, and then let Shu Qi Xianggong write an obituary."

Shu Qi Xianggong is equivalent to a secretary.

Mainly draft official documents, letters, red and white letters and so on.

"The funeral will be held in three days, and the obituary will be sent to all the relatives."

When Jia Rong came back, many family members followed him.

Therefore, Qin Keqing's accident has long been known to both governments.

But most of them took a sliver of luck and hoped that the Qin family would return safely.

At this time, when the letter of approval was obtained, the whole family immediately fell into grief.

Those who are older, think of her obedience.

Of the same generation, think of her harmony and intimacy.

Those of the younger generation, think of her kindness.

Even the servants at home, old and young, also think of her kindness of loving the poor and the humble, and loving the old and the young.

Qin Keqing has only been in the family for two years, and has won the hearts of most people in the Ning Mansion.

Ask about the bad news, and weep bitterly.

For a while, many people in the two mansions shed tears from the bottom of their hearts.

It can also be seen from this that Qin Keqing is thoughtful on a daily basis.

On Rongfu's side, Sister Feng is having a rare leisure time.

In the house with Ping'er, teasing the eldest sister.

Suddenly he heard the sound of the cloud board coming from the second door, and he knocked four times in a row.

This is mourning!

"Quickly let someone go and see what's going on!"

Sister Feng was shocked, put down her eldest sister and gave some instructions.

Ping'er hurriedly sent someone over, and after a while, someone came back and said:
"It's Grandma Rong of Dongfu, who disappeared on the way to worship the ancestors."

Knowing this before, Wang Xifeng blurted out after hearing this:
"Could it be that the body was found?"

The man nodded and replied:
"Exactly, I just found it, and there is a funeral in the East Mansion."

Sister Feng was extremely depressed when she heard this.

After touching the tears for a while, and being out of my mind for a long time, I changed my clothes and went to the back to meet Mrs. Wang.

Obviously got the letter later.

During these days, Baoyu found that the servant girls were not as close to him as they used to be.

I am depressed.

In addition, he has a good relationship with Qin Zhong, and also has some contacts with the Qin family.

With such a good looking dog, he has a very good impression of Qin Shi.

Even dreamed about her.

Now that I hear that Qin Shi is dead, I feel like a knife has been stabbed in my heart.

I didn't feel tightness in my chest, and then there was a "wow".

He spit out a mouthful of blood.

The big servant girls were startled and hurried forward to support her.

The attacker hurriedly ordered: "Quick! Quick! Get someone to call for a doctor!"

"Don't be busy, it's irrelevant."

Baoyu took the handkerchief and wiped his mouth, then sighed:
"It's just a rush to the heart, and the blood doesn't return to the meridians."

Handing the handkerchief to the servant girl, he said:
"Change my clothes first, and go to visit my ancestors. I'm going to Dongfu to have a look."

Seeing him like this, Xiren sighed softly in his heart.

What a sigh is that this grandpa is really...

I don't know how to describe it.

The niece and daughter-in-law were gone, so he vomited blood first.

I don't know, I thought there was something wrong with the two of them!
She didn't stop her anymore, and let Baoyu go.

After hearing this, Jia Mu only told more people to follow.

Then Baoyu was allowed to go.

When we got to the front of Ningguo Mansion, we saw the gate of the mansion was wide open, and people came and went in disorder.

The cries inside shake the mountains.

Baoyu got out of the car, hurried to the coffin room, and cried bitterly.

Then I went to the backyard to meet Youshi, and then came out to meet Jia Zhen.

Everyone in the eighth room of Jia's family has arrived, and Jia Zhen is crying like tears.

At this time, he was talking to Jia Dairu and other elders:

"The whole family, relatives and friends near and far, who doesn't know that my daughter-in-law is ten times stronger than my son!"

Speaking of this, he sighed heavily and said:
"To keep my innocence, I jumped into the river now! This is a martyr for the Jia family's reputation!"

Say, cry again.

Everyone hurriedly persuaded: "People have passed away, it is useless to cry, and it is important to discuss how to take care of them."

Jia Zhen wiped away her tears, shook her hands, and sobbed:
"How to cook? Just do my best!"

Just as he was talking, Qin Ye, Qin Zhong, Feng Yibo, and Mrs. You also came.

Jia Zhen and Qin's father and son inevitably cried again.

Then they settled down for a while before finding Feng Yibo.

The first thing he said when he stepped forward was: "Yibo, let me use the wood first, and I will explain it to the other house!"

"It's natural!"

Feng Yibo immediately expressed his opinion upon hearing the words, nodded and said:
"Our own brothers, we must let Brother Zhen use it first, and we will talk about the others later."

"Thank you, Brother Yibo!"

The two people on this side were talking, while Jia Lian and Feng Ziying on the other side were not idle either.

Although the funeral was officially held three days later.

But most of the nobles in the capital have received letters.

First send the junior over to see if there is anything that can help.

A few days ago, Jia Lian and Feng Ziying only talked about three or five of the public houses of the country.

Now I just took the opportunity to talk about a few more.

The entire funeral scene became a business place for the two of them.

Most of the people who received people and things were from the Jia family's senior generation, and they would lower their eyebrows and be pleasing to the eye when they saw Jia Lian.

He didn't dare to say anything after hearing anything.

When Baoyu arrived, the room was full of people talking about wood and stone.

He just chatted dizzily, as if he came to the wrong place.

At this time, I went to invite the Yin and Yang Division of Qintian Supervisor to come back, and said that I would choose to stop the spirit for 49 days.

Jia Zhen immediately asked someone to discuss specific matters.

Finally set, in these 49 days.

One hundred and eight monks should be invited to worship the "Great Compassion Repentance" in the hall.

Transcendent ghosts who died before and after they died.

There will also be an altar in Tianxiang Tower, which is 99 Quanzhen Taoist priests.

On the [-]th, the karma will be resolved and the karma will be resolved.

In front of the spirit in Huifang Garden, there are another fifty eminent monks and fifty eminent Taoists.

Facing the altars respectively, according to "seven" to do rituals.

On that day, Dai Quan, the supervisor of the Daming Palace, prepared a sacrificial ceremony and sent people over.

The next day, I took the big sedan chair again, beat the gong, and came to offer sacrifices in person.

His arrival gave the Ningguo Mansion a lot of face.

Jia Zhen wanted to receive her in person, and let her sit in Dou Feng Xuan to offer tea.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Dai Quan casually said:
"Here in the Ning Mansion, if there is anything that can help, just tell me."

Unexpectedly, Jia Zhen was taken aback when she heard the words.

"Gouzi has always been useless, just a supervisor. I don't know if the old inner minister can give me some guidance."

Dai Quan frowned first, then smiled knowingly:
"I suppose it's for the fun of the funeral?"

Jia Zhen nodded again and again when she heard the words, "What the old inner minister sees is not bad."

Dai Quan pondered for a while, then smiled and said:
"It just so happens that there is a good thing."

"Oh? Please give me some pointers!" Jia Zhen was overjoyed when she heard the words.

He thought that what Dai Quan said was a lack of beauty, it must be good.

"Now there are two missing members of the [-]-member Long Jinwei."

Long Jinwei is an imperial military officer of the fifth rank, who is in charge of protecting the inner court.

The full name is Long Jinwei, the former guard of the Forbidden Road, which protects the inner court.

Jia Zhen hesitated when she heard the words.

If it is a fifth-rank military officer, the price is not wrong.

But Long Jinwei doesn't have any real power, it's just nice to hear.

And you have to get up early and work late, and go to the palace to be on duty.

To say that it is beautiful is to say that it is for the children of ordinary aristocratic families.

For people like them, it's almost as if they are suffering.

The lack of beauty is really far-fetched.

"Yesterday, the third brother of the Marquis of Xiangyang came to beg me, and now he took 500 taels of silver and sent it to my home."

This is an offer.

Although Long Jinwei Jia Zhen was not satisfied.

But the words have already been spoken, and he can't immediately refute Dai Quan's face.

"You know, we are all old friends, no matter what, for the sake of his grandfather, we agreed indiscriminately."

Dai Quan knew from his appearance that Jia Zhen was not satisfied.

Fortunately, he is well versed in hunger marketing, and he started laying the groundwork as early as the first sentence.

"There is one vacancy left, who knows that Feng Fatty, the governor of Yongxing, begged me to donate to his child."

Speaking of this, Jia Zhen's heart tightened.

Donating or not is one thing.

Whether you can donate is another matter.

When I heard that I couldn't donate, I was a little anxious.

This was the reaction Dai Quan was waiting for, and smiled again when he saw this:

"Fortunately, I haven't had time to answer him yet. Since our child wants to donate, let's write a resume first."

The ups and downs made Jia Zhen terrified.

Now that the words have come to this point, he can no longer refuse.

The busy man wrote a resume on red paper.

Dai Quan read it, and it read:

Jia Rong, a supervisor in Jiangning County, Yingtian Prefecture, Jiangnan, was 20 years old.

The great-grandfather, Jia Daihua, the hereditary first-class supernatural general, was the former envoy of the Beijing Camp.

The ancestor, Jia Jing, a Jinshi of Bingchen Division.

Father, Jia Zhen, the hereditary third-rank general Wei Lie.

Handed it back to a close servant to accept it, and ordered:

"Go back and send it to Lao Zhao, the hall official of Hubu, and say that I will pay him a ticket for Wupinlong Banwei, and then give him a license, and fill in this resume."

Paused, and slightly increased the volume, as if to listen to Jia Zhen.

"Tomorrow I will exchange the silver and send it over."

The boy quickly agreed.

Jia Zhen said nothing.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Dai Quan got up to leave.

Jia Zhen kept the money many times, and finally sent it out of the house.

Before getting into the sedan chair, he took the opportunity to ask:

"Should I go to the ministry to exchange the silver, or send it to the house of the inner minister?"

Dai Quan knew that Jia Zhen understood what he said just now, so he smiled with satisfaction:
"If you go to the Ministry to exchange, you will suffer again. Why don't you equalize 1000 taels of silver and send it to my house and it's over."

Sending it to the Ministry is a donation.

Anyway, it was approved by the court.

Sending it to the home is to give and receive in private.

It's purely selling the official title.

Jia Zhen naturally understood, but the hint just now...

It should be an indication.

He couldn't refuse.

At this time, I can only say gratefully: "When the service is full, I will bring the puppy to the house to thank you."

Dai Quan nodded in satisfaction, got into the sedan chair and left.

Then I heard the sound of shouting, and it turned out that it was the wife of Zhongjinghou Shi Ding, who came with her niece Shi Xiangyun.

Youshi, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing, Sister Feng and other female family members of the Jia family welcome people into the main room together.

At this time, the sacrifices of the three families of Jinxianghou, Chuanninghou and Shoushanbo were also placed in front of the spirit.

When they were young, the three of them got out of the sedan chair, and Jia Zhen personally picked them up in the hall.

Such relatives and friends come and go, and they cannot be counted.

Jia Lian and Feng Ziying socialized wildly in front.

Jia Zhen of the master's house doesn't care, and others won't say much.

And they don't need to sell, they can talk about it in a few words.

So, a good funeral.

There are Jia Lian and Feng Ziying, who use this to talk about building materials business.

There are also Jia Zhen and Dai Quan, who privately confer and sell officials and nobles.

This is not counting.

Another person came back from Jia Jing.

The grandson's daughter-in-law is gone, and the old man won't even show his face.

He said that he delayed his ascension because he was afraid of being contaminated with the world of mortals.

Just rely on Jia Zhen to cook by herself.

Jia Zhen is in charge of the outside affairs, and Youshi in the back house also handles them in an orderly manner.

The old relatives and women who were present all looked at her with admiration.

On the 49th, on a Ningguofu street.

White is long, people come and go,

The flowers are clustered, the officials go and the officials come.

During this period, Jia Rong changed into auspicious clothes, and went to the Ministry of Households to get an official certificate and came back.

The deacons and other things used before the spirit were changed according to the five-rank duty rule.

All the tablets read:

"Give Jiamen and the Qin family a pleasant spiritual position."

The "Qin family" here is extremely mournful, and it is needless to say that it has been sealed.

Over there, Qing is free and has been floating on the sea for many days.

Before the "Qin family" was buried, Keqing had already arrived in Liuqiu safely.

What greeted her was nothing but a brand new life.

And what affects her new life...

A brand new title!
