The Rise of Ning Mansion in Red Mansions

Chapter 26 Familiar Recipe

Aunt Xing and Xing Guodong (who is currently serving as a clerk in Prince Teng Shuai's account in Jingying, whose daughter was recommended by Mrs. Wang and fell in love with Jia's mother, and will marry Jia She this month to fill a house) are from the same mother. Direct siblings.

His father, Xing Chongwu, was Jiayan, the Duke of Ningguo. He was an old man who raised troops in Jinling Province. When Aunt Xing was young, she was quite beautiful.

For the future of his eldest son Xing Guodong, and to deepen the relationship with Ningguo Mansion, he took care of the Xing family, so he sent her in a small sedan chair to Jia Dai's room to become an aunt.

Thirty years after entering the mansion, he was in a state of desolation. He had never given birth to a son or a daughter. He lived in seclusion in the side courtyard of Ningguo Mansion, living in seclusion and simplicity, without fighting against the world.

Perhaps she was sympathetic to the same problem, so she was very considerate of Jia Dai, who had not yet made a fortune.
Knowing that Jia Dai had a big appetite, he often used his own share to help. Over time, the relationship between the two became closer than that of their biological mother, Xue.

Jia Dai often called her "milk", and the two of them stayed together in the dangerous Ningguo Mansion to stay warm and chat.

The ancestor Jia Dai refers to is Aunt Xing.

However, the inside story of this is not known to outsiders. Jia Mu has no idea at all. Otherwise, she would have to take Jia Dai to sit down and have a good drink!
Although there are differences between men and women, the methods used by the grandfather and grandson to seize power are actually carved out of the same mold. They are all falsely passing on the last words of the male master and suppressing others with filial piety.

But he said that that day, Jia Daihua was suffering from a long-term illness and was lying on the bed dying. Jia Jing went to see him for the last time.
However, when he came out, he was in high spirits and his look of decadence was gone.

Afterwards, Jia Dai summoned Jia Dai in and told everything.

What to say, Jia Jing is his biological father after all. There is no hatred between father and son. They should work together to revive the Jia clan and not bring shame to their ancestors.

He was said to be still young and had already made great achievements in rescuing King Qin. He and Wang Ziteng jointly submitted a letter to recommend him. All the old members of the Jia family were involved.
Before being crowned, he was promoted to the rank of Commander-in-Chief of the Commander-in-Chief, a fourth-grade military attaché, and he could firmly control the four guards of Yanshan.

There is no need to aim too high, let alone act on impulse. You will be arrogant when you succeed. You need to be cautious, work hard on your body, practice martial arts diligently, and read military books well...

Jia Daihua's time was short. In the days that followed, Lin Linzongzong said a lot. The core idea was to forcibly assign the position of clan leader that should have been Jia Dai to Jia Jing.

Her intentions were just like Jia Mu's. The eldest brother got the family property of Ningguo Mansion, and the second wife got the ancestral property. They lived together under the tiles, and the Xue family who filled the house took care of the inner residence of Ningguo Mansion. Xue is Jia Dai's biological mother. Although she comes from the Xue family in Jinling, her status is low and she is just a concubine in Jia Jing's room.

Not long ago, Jia Daihua forcibly promoted her to the position of Mrs. Jia Jing to ease the conflict between the eldest and second eldest wives of Ningguo Mansion.

However, this Xue family is as afraid of Jia Jing as a tiger and is completely obedient to him. If things go on like this, Ningguo Mansion will definitely be hollowed out by Jia Jing.

Jia Dai had no choice but to find a way to debunk Jia Daihua's last words, and fabricated Jia Daihua's last words. Fu Xingshi filled in Jia Daihua's house to suppress Jia Jing.

Jia Jing has been away from home for more than ten years. He is used to being the master of the family. How can he be filial to Aunt Xing, who is from a humble background, and call her mother every morning and dusk?
Jia Dai hid behind his back and secretly supported Aunt Xing, deliberately looking for faults in Jia Jing. He called him to the inner courtyard in public and scolded him several times.

Before Jia Daihua's funeral was completed, Jia Jing couldn't bear it anymore.

Waving his sleeves and holding countless ancestral money, he drove a carriage and took three or five Taoist boys with him, and went outside the city to fool around with the wild Taoist priests in refining alchemy. He was happy and happy, leaving all matters of the clan to Jia Zhen to decide.

Since the Jinling Jia family tree is enshrined in the ancestral hall and is taken care of by Jia Jing and his son, the Xing family's name is not continued next to Jia Daihua.

The fact that the Xing family became the old lady of the Ningguo Mansion was only known to a few masters and servants in the Ningguo Mansion, and no outsiders knew about it.

Jia Dai spoke eloquently and hid the part where he fabricated Jia Daihua's last words. Jia Mu was stunned for a while. The familiar recipes and familiar seasonings seemed familiar, as if she had seen them somewhere.
Immediately, Jia's mother, Jia Zheng, mother and son looked at each other in the air, and they suddenly realized. They turned to look down at Jia Dai, who was sitting upright as before, and felt his face turn red. He secretly scolded Jia Dai for being a brat and a devil, so shameless!
From what Jia Dai said, Aunt Xing is definitely not very old. She is forty-six at most this year, ten years younger than herself. It's just a pity that she missed such a good opportunity.

I don’t know what year or month she will have to wait before she can get her wish and become the ancestor of the entire Jinling Jia clan.

The small temple of Rongguo Mansion could no longer satisfy Jia Mu's ambitions and desires.
