Red Mansion Royal Cat

Chapter 38

How could Mrs. Rongguo's precious phoenix eggs be missing a few books?
It wasn't those books that Jia's mother was interested in, but what Daiyu said when she was curiously flipping through them: "Ah, these imperially made Four Books and Five Classics actually have the annotations of Grand Master Yan!"

Grand Master Yan Chi, the most famous Confucian in today's scholastic circles, is a living Confucian sage.Who in the world doesn't want to worship under the Yan family?

Mother Jia just doesn't like the seventh-rank Zhima official after the imperial examination, but she also understands the importance of Yanmen's disciples.As long as Baoyu understands Grand Master Yan's annotations in those books, and tries harder, Baoyu may be favored by Grand Master Yan...

As for Jia Cong, at worst, she would reward him with a few silver coins and let him buy books by himself.A concubine, should he surpass Baoyu?

But what she didn't expect was that Jia Lian was the first to stand up to object, and Wang Xifeng, who used to be obedient to her, also advised Jia Lian to help Baoyu buy some good books outside.

Sure enough, the people in Dafang had already divorced themselves, and they lost even the slightest bit of filial piety!

Jia Amnesty's voice was still lingering in Rongxi Hall, and the old lady could hear the meaning of what the eldest son said.

This book was specially given to Jia Cong by the Supreme Emperor, and this opportunity was also specially given to Jia Cong.The books belonged to Jia Cong, and it was Jia Cong who had the opportunity to learn from the Yan family.

If you understand it, you understand it, but why?
The old lady couldn't help feeling resentment towards the Supreme Emperor. The person in the whole family who most resembles your half-brother Jia Daishan is obviously Baoyu. Why did you give this opportunity to Jia Cong, a bastard!

If it wasn't for the fact that she still had reason in her heart, she would have wanted to put on a commanding uniform and go to the Dragon Head Palace to ask her a question.

"Uncle, Brother Cong is only young, so I should go to Baoyu to read it first. In the coming year, Brother Cong really wants to study and take the imperial examination for Nao Shizi, and then let Baoyu send it to Brother Cong!"

Mrs. Wang realized that the old lady had already made a compromise, so she put forward this suggestion presumptuously.In her eyes, being able to do this is already a magnanimous kindness to Jia Cong.

Unexpectedly, Jia Amnesty narrowed his eyes and looked at Mrs. Wang sarcastically.

"Okay, as long as Baoyu swears to be a scholar within three years, it doesn't matter if I give him the books bestowed by the emperor? After all, he is my own nephew. As long as he is a descendant of the Jia family, no matter who he is, as long as he Promising, as an uncle, I will do my best to support him, just like supporting Brother Zhu back then!"

Mrs. Wang thought that Jia She really agreed with her approach, and she said happily, "Then thank you uncle, I will go and ask Baoyu to study hard..."

"How to work hard? Are you also like Zhu Geer, who was forced to exhaust all your efforts and died on the desk?"

As soon as Jia Zhu was mentioned, Jia She felt a pain in his heart.He was really a good boy, humble, courteous, knowledgeable and talented, even after the first house was persecuted by the second house, he did help Jia Zhu secretly for the sake of the Jia family.

But this Qilinzi of the Jia family was forcibly destroyed in the hands of Jia Zheng, a pedantic person, and Wang, a stupid woman.

Later, when Jia Zhu died in the study, Jia She was furious and beat Jia Zheng severely with a whip in front of the entire Jia family.

From that day on, Jia Amnesty completely lost hope in the Jia family. It wasn't until his youngest son, Jia Cong, showed that he was different, that he regained a sliver of confidence.

It might be that Jia Amnesty mentioned Jia Zhu, and everyone in the room felt dull.Li Wan's eyes were even red, she hugged her ignorant son Jia Lan tightly, and looked at Jia Amnesty gratefully.

It turns out that in this family, there are still people who remember that amazing and talented person!
Jia Cong moved to Li Wan's side, took out two oranges from his sleeve, handed one to Jia Lan and the other to Xichun who was hiding in Yingchun's arms.

Jia She on the other side ignored Mrs. Wang who was paralyzed on the chair in shock, and asked the old lady directly: "Mother, Brother Zhu has already been forced to death by this stupid woman. Do you want Baoyu to follow Brother Zhu?" What's more, this book is bestowed by a sage, whoever owns it, and the crime of disrespect, it's better for our family not to touch it! Father's shadow can't bear to be ruined again and again."

"Okay, after all, it's just a set of books. Is it necessary to turn over old scores?"

The old lady slapped the table, glared at Mrs. Wang who was still slumped on the chair and weeping silently, and called Yuanyang: "Go to Baoyu's courtyard and bring that set of books to Brother Cong, and pretend that this incident never happened. No. I'm tired, everyone go back and rest..."

"Mother, my son has something to tell you, let the second girl go out first."

Jia She interrupted the old lady, waved to Jia Cong and said, "Brother Cong saw Sister Yuan in the palace, it's better for the old lady and younger siblings to know about some things."

……

Jia Zheng, who was teaching his son in Jia Baoyu's courtyard, was hastily invited over by Yuanyang. At this time, only Jia Mu, Jia She, Jia Zheng, Mrs. Wang and Jia Cong were left in Rongxi Hall.

After Jia Cong finished talking about what happened in the palace today, Mrs. Wang screamed: "How is it possible? What my brother said back then, Sister Yuan will be a female historian in Yanxi Palace for a few days, and Madam Zhen will find a way to give Sister Yuan A great fortune!"

"What great fortune? Are you being bullied and suffering every day?"

Jia Amnesty mercilessly mocked Mrs. Wang and Jia Zheng who was standing on the chair: "Do you know how many injuries Ms. Yuan has on her arms? The new ones cover the old ones! It's just you and your wife who want to take care of your daughter. In exchange for riches and honors, things that are black-hearted, Sister Yuan entrusted you to give birth to your knees, and this life is almost ruined!"

"That's enough! How can I not be wronged when I work in the palace? Maybe it's because Miss Yuan didn't do her job well, so she was taught to behave by the empress..."

The old lady had a dark face and wanted to smooth things over for her second son, but she saw Jia Cong shaking her head like a rattle, and said crisply: "Eldest sister is so pitiful, those eunuchs and maids take pleasure in bullying elder sister, after all They don't dare to bully the eldest girl of the Duke's Mansion!"

These words blocked the old lady's subsequent words, making the old lady's face flushed as if she had been slapped.

Jia She chuckled, full of sarcasm and sadness.

It ridicules Jia Zheng's couple and mother's deception and poor vanity, and at the same time feels sad for the niece in the palace.

This is the grandmother who carefully taught her back then, and the parents who care about her on weekdays.It turned out that the meticulous teaching was to send her into the palace to serve others, and the concern in her mouth was just to prevent her from being talked about when she sold her daughter for glory in the future!

Yes, so how can parents who care about their daughters be the ones who sell their daughters for glory?Maybe they really wanted their daughter to have a great fortune.After all, that was Jia Yuanchun who was born on the first day of the first lunar month!
Jia Amnesty didn't want to see the hypocritical faces of Jia Zheng and his wife again, so he said coldly, "Second brother, Mrs. Wang, since Sister Yuan asked Brother Cong to bring back the words, you two should hurry up and raise money. Remember, don't Going the way of Zhen's family, today I took the opportunity to demolish Prince Zhongxin's mansion, which can be regarded as revenge for Sister Yuan."

Hearing that Jia Amnesty had demolished Prince Zhongxin's mansion, Mother Jia was startled and wanted to reprimand: "What? You messed with King Zhongxin again? The Zhen family and our Jia family have been friends for generations..."

Jia Amnesty, however, was already tired of the stupid talk of Jia Zhen's two generations of relatives, so he directly interrupted the old lady's cursing, waved his hand and said, "Mother, don't say those useless words, let the second brother and younger siblings talk about it." Go raise money, by the way, Wang Ziteng has money there, don't just think about scraping your own wall bricks. When all the money is raised, go to the palace through Xia Shouzhong's father-in-law. Sister Yuan is protected by the empress dowager. Nothing will happen."

　Thanks to the book friend 6884 for the reward.
