Red Mansion Royal Cat

Chapter 77

There are no fools in the Wang family, except Mr. Zheng's wife.

As soon as the queen mother's decree for the marriage of Jia Cong and Daiyu arrived at the Rongguo Mansion, Jia Mu and Baoyu fainted. The reason for this may not be clear to many dignitaries in the capital.

Including the two sages in the palace, they all had eyeliner in Ningrong and Rongfu. At this time, going to the imperial hospital to ask for an imperial doctor was simply to put Jiamu and Baoyu's dissatisfaction with the empress dowager on the surface.

Mrs. Wang's thinking is no different from courting death. Do you really think Empress Dowager Cao is a philanthropist?
"Yuanyang, why are you still standing there? Why don't you hurry up and do what I ordered?"

Although Wang Xifeng despises the old lady's partiality and Baoyu's ignorance of world affairs, but in the end she still has reason and knows that there must be no accidents between the two of them because of the marriage offer.

Looking at Mrs. Wang's resentful eyes, Wang Xifeng was filled with emotion.

Unexpectedly, she finally came to this step with her real aunt and good second aunt!
"Second Master, this concubine has offended all her natal relatives because of our eldest family!"

……

The decree of the marriage in the palace not only disrupted Jia's mother's plan, but even Wang Ziteng was shocked when he heard the news.

The doctor in Baohetang injects medicine with needles. The first thing Jia's mother does after waking up is not to visit her precious grandson, but to ask Jia Zheng and his wife to go to Wang Ziteng's house to find Wang Ziteng.

"Didn't I say a long time ago that you should appoint the girl of the Lin family for Baoyu as soon as possible? Why did you let someone else take the lead?"

Wang Ziteng squinted his eyes. Back then, he had taken a fancy to the political resources behind Lin Ruhai and the Lin family's massive wealth. He tried every means to draw him under his command, but he didn't expect to make a wedding dress for the big family of Rongguo Mansion.

Jia Zheng didn't respond for a long time, but Mrs. Wang complained: "Second brother, that Lin girl has been weak since she was a child, and she is not easy to give birth to. How can we Baoyu marry her?"

"Confused! Is Baoyu short of a woman? Just marry and go home and support them. If you want children, just take in a few more concubines! Official Lin? If Baoyu marries a girl from the Lin family, wouldn’t Lin Ruhai’s contacts and wealth of the Lin family all belong to Baoyu?”

Wang Ziteng was really crying because of his younger sister. She looked smart before, but why is she so stupid now?

"So, it's your reason that this matter has not been settled for a long time?"

Wang Ziteng finally understood why this marriage became like this. The old lady was using the Jia family's reputation to pave the way for Baoyu, but her own sister was holding back...

Do you still remember the conflict between Jia Min and her back then?
Forget it, I can't talk to this stupid woman about it.

Wang Ziteng turned his gaze to "Brother-in-law, what did the old lady say?"

Jia Zheng hesitated again and again, and finally replied hesitantly: "What mother means is, let's see if my uncle can find a way to make the palace withdraw his life."

hiss!
What is the old lady thinking?
Wang Ziteng took a deep breath, almost swearing.

"When did the empress dowager care about these trivial matters? The marriage proposal is obviously the intention of our Majesty. This marriage is a foregone conclusion. Let the old lady choose Baoyu again."

Wang Ziteng saw it thoroughly, but he didn't say a few words.

The Queen Mother's decree must have been pushed by the emperor, but the object of the marriage made him very afraid.

He had just pushed the people in Jiangnan to plot against Lin Ruhai, and Jia Amnesty, who had been at home for several years, left Beijing and Jiangnan.After a few days, the palace married Jia's son and Lin's daughter, what a coincidence!

Jia Zheng was still a little unwilling, but he didn't dare to argue with his uncle, so he nodded with a bitter face.

Mrs. Wang said enthusiastically: "Second Brother, since there is no hope for Lin Yatou, it is better to make Baoyu the daughter of the third sister..."

"Huh? You don't want to mess around, this matter is not feasible!" A sternness flashed in Wang Ziteng's eyes, and he kept his secret and didn't want to talk about it again.

It's a pity that Mrs. Wang is not Wang Xifeng. At this time, she fell into her own fantasy and couldn't help herself, and she even tried to persuade her again.

"Second Brother, Third Sister once wrote me a letter, saying that her Baochai family is handsome and knowledgeable... She is simply a natural candidate for Baoyu's wife..."

Boom!
Wang Ziteng knocked on the table with iron green, and warned Mrs. Wang coldly: "Second sister, I said, this is not feasible!"

"why?"

Mrs. Wang was still not reconciled, but Wang Ziteng said something she had never heard before.

Only Wang Ziteng replied indifferently: "After the death of the third brother-in-law, the Xue family is no different than before, and Brother Pan is extremely stubborn. If you want to keep the Xue family, you can only try the road to the harem. Bao girl... can only enter the palace. Run!"

……

The wind in the capital city can't reach the south of the Yangtze River, and Jia Cong can't bear it after living in Zhen's house for only two days.

The old lady of the Zhen family didn't know what she was thinking, but the Feng'en Hall was full of Yingying and Yanyan at lunch the next day.

It has to be said that the Zhen family is very similar to the Jia family, and the well-bred daughters are better than the other, but in Baoyu's generation of the Zhen family, there is not a single promising man.

Jia Cong, who escaped from Daughter's Country, originally wanted to live in Jia's old house, but Jia Shishi sent the news in advance, and someone in Jinling No.

Jia Amnesty asked Jia Shishi to send a letter, and asked Jia Cong to avoid him if he could before he came to Jinling.

"Brother Cong, go to my house first?"

Xue Pan happily greeted Jia Cong, and would invite Jia Cong to stay at his house no matter what.

Jia Shixi whispered in Jia Cong's ear, "General, it's good for the third master to live in Xue's house. Everyone in Jinling Mansion is watching us now, including Li Xun. The third master has been playing at Xue's house for a few days. When our people are all here, go to Zhizao Mansion to do the errand assigned by the sage!"

The carriage leisurely stopped in front of Xue's house, it snows heavily in a good year, pearls are like earth and gold is like iron.

The Xue family has been a well-known imperial merchant's house in the south of the Yangtze River since the founding of the country. The luxury of Xue's mansion is no less than that of Rongguo Mansion.

The wealth of many generations, even if it has gone downhill now, it is still a thin camel bigger than a horse, a big house with five entrances, running water and corridors everywhere, and koi fish dancing.

Because they are half-in-law, Mrs. Xue and her daughter Xue Baochai have long been waiting in the main hall.

Jia Cong met first according to the etiquette, and after the greetings, Mrs. Xue asked the servants to bring a rich meal to entertain Jia Cong.

"The dishes at my aunt's house are indeed unique, and they are much more delicious than the ones I ate at Zhen's house in the past two days."

Thinking of the smell of makeup and powder in the Feng En Hall of the Zhen family at the luncheon yesterday, Jia Cong shuddered...

It's too scary, if he runs slowly, he will be eaten alive by those yingyingyanyans!

Holding the exquisite porcelain bowl, Jia Cong yelled at the servant girl to add a tall bowl of rice to him, and started to eat with all kinds of dishes on the table.

Mrs. Xue looked at Jia Cong who was devouring wolf, and the smile on her face was even bigger.

Jia Cong's behavior in this way, in her opinion, means that she does not treat the Xue family as outsiders.In comparison, the performance of my natal nephew when he came to Jinling last time was far behind.

Thinking of the letter from her second brother Wang Ziteng a few days ago, the smile on Mrs. Xue's face gradually faded, and she gradually felt a little sad.

Could it be that I am not a daughter of the Wang family when I marry the Xue family?Second brother, don't you want my sister?
