The Rise of Ning Mansion in Red Mansions

Chapter 34: Far-reaching plans

The first year of Taikang, New Year's Eve.

At Chen time, the door of the Jia family ancestral hall opened, and people gathered outside. Many men, women, and children from eight rooms in the capital gathered there.

Or, they gather together in twos and threes and talk quietly;
Or invite friends and company, talk and laugh loudly, attracting everyone's attention.

Since the second Duke Ningrong, the Jia family has been in Shenjing and has been multiplying for nearly sixty years.

There are many people in the clan, and there is uneven wealth and poverty. There are those who succeed and those who lose.

The people of the clan are all in different shapes and forms. There are those who are dressed in rich and jade clothes, and there are also those who are in ragged clothes.

But on New Year's Eve, everyone gathered here, braving the cold wind and waiting for something.

They share a common identity.

That is the member of the Jia clan in Jinling after the second Duke Ningrong!

Today, regardless of whether you are rich or poor, old or young, you will only be divided into direct descendants and respect your elders!

Ning Gong is the eldest son, and Jia Dai is naturally the one to conduct the ancestor worship on New Year's Eve. This is irrefutable.

It's just that Aunt Xing is just a concubine and a plaything that has never passed the front door. An Neng's leader Jia Clan's female?
If it weren't for the soldiers armed with swords, guns, swords and halberds who were watching at the entrance of the ancestral hall, the older members of the Jia clan, or those who thought they were scholars, would have almost jumped up and cursed!
Shuzi!

Is there any aunt who goes into the ancestral hall to pay homage to her ancestors?
It's really a big joke in the world!

Teach the tribesmen how to behave with their heads held high in front of the people of Shenjing? !
It really made me laugh to death!
However, Jia Dai remained unmoved at all and persisted to straighten Aunt Xing. This was Jia Daihua's last order. As a descendant, you must not violate it, let alone be unfilial!

In contrast, Jia Mu was also helpless, but she didn't want to break up with Jia Dai.

However, Jia's wife is still watching, and she doesn't want to compromise easily!

He thought to himself: This guy is so brave after eating his ambition, why doesn't he eat anything soft or hard? !
The two sides were evenly matched and there was a stalemate.

Previously, the second daughter-in-law made a ridiculous incident of "carrying a jade in her mouth", so she spent a lot of favors and went to her door in person to persuade the four bastards to help.

It was difficult to suppress it, but even I was called to the palace, where I was scolded by the Queen for not being a good steward.

If the issue of ancestor worship comes to the imperial court again, I am afraid that Emperor Taikang will use this to settle old and new accounts together, and the Jia family will be destroyed in an instant.

Aunt Xing cannot enter the Jinling Jia family tree, let alone appear in the ancestral hall. This is her bottom line!
For this reason, Jia Mu would rather not participate in this New Year's Eve ancestor worship.

Except for Xue's dilemma, all the daughters-in-law of the Jia family said they would not participate in ancestor worship and vowed to advance and retreat with Jia's mother!

If you don't teach this bastard, you know how powerful a woman is, and you can't just let a man rub her in any way he wants!
They also have tempers and bottom lines!

Living with a concubine?
hum!

Who are you looking down on!
They are the wives of the Jia family's Ming matchmaker, and they cannot afford to lose this person!

However, the men in their family all depended on Ning Rong's second house for survival, and they did not dare to support Jia Mu like they did.

Instead, the two factions were clearly divided, and they started to argue outside the gate of the ancestral hall. Now the quarrel was getting louder, and no one was willing to give in.

It's been a long time, but the two groups still haven't come to a conclusion.

Other wealthy families in Shenjing have already completed the tedious process of ancestor worship, and gathered together to eat and listen to music. It was so lively and happy!
Ningqing Hall is brightly lit.

Jia Dai sat high on the throne, and on the left and right sides of the ground, headed by Jia Jing and Jia She, sat a group of men from Ningrong's second house.

The atmosphere is solemn!

No one had the intention to speak, they were waiting quietly for something.

"Brother Dai, old lady..."

Everyone looked sideways, but it was Jia Lian who was running in both directions to deliver a message to Jia Mu and Jia Dai.

Who taught Jia Lian that he had taken advantage of Jia Dai and that he would be the future aristocrat of Rongguo Mansion?

Jia Lian is very good at this errand work, and it suits his status very well!

On the day of Guiningzhuang, Jia Dai just made a small plan, and Jia Lian took the bait. After taking charge of the Ningguo Mansion, Jia Dai had nothing but a lot of money!
On that day, the two brothers put aside Lai Shengyi's plan, and Jia Dai advanced funds to help Jia Lian buy a small house with three entrances in Ningrong Back Street to accommodate Qiu Tong and Yan Hong.

Jia Lian got the benefits and naturally had to help Jia Dai work.

Not only did he reveal Jia Mu's trump cards, he also took the initiative to help Jia Dai and persuade Jia Mu inside.

What an honest little gentleman who works for money, a good grandson of Jia Mu!

Jia Lian held his old waist, his forehead was sweating hotly in the winter, and he was out of breath. He secretly winked at Jia Dai, "Don't worry, it's done!"

Jia Dai understood it!

In fact, in China's thousands of years of history, there was no such thing as equal wives and both wives for wealthy families like theirs.

Jia Dai didn't want to bear the infamy, so he made it difficult for Jia Mu to compromise on the issue of ancestor worship.

It is rare to travel through the world of Red Mansions. If Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai cannot be given a status, how can Jia Dai be willing to do so!

However, he had already been engaged, and it was Jia Daihua who made the decision himself to choose the legitimate daughter of the Wang family in Jinling.

If Jia Dai dares to say no,
Wei's etiquette can't get around him!

But, let Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai be younger?

I’m afraid it’s inappropriate!

Therefore, the common method used by barbarian tribes and small families, such as the equal wife and the mother-in-law, appeared in Jia Dai's mind!
Regardless of whether the cat is black or white, if it can solve the problem, it is a good cat!

"Tell me, what's wrong with the old lady?"

Jia Dai, who was sitting on the main seat, had not moved yet, but Jia Zheng, who was underground, jumped out first and asked Jia Lian anxiously.

Don't blame him for that.

In fact, we have just experienced the danger of seizing the legitimate son in the Hall of Rongxi.

He didn't expect that Jia She would be so cruel, not caring about the decades of brotherly love, and wanted to drive his family out of Rongguo Mansion, and also wanted to ruin the eldest girl's future!
What's wrong with entering the palace to serve Emperor Taikang?
What can I say? If the eldest girl has good luck in the future, even if she becomes a royal concubine, she will be nothing more than a concubine of the royal family!

What do you mean?
How many people want to enter the palace, but they can't!

Furthermore, is a concubine qualified to be compared with a noble concubine? !

Noble concubine, that is you!
understand?

It's you!

When you go out, you represent the Wei royal family!

snort!
The eldest brother is just jealous because he gave birth to a good daughter!
However, the horoscope has not yet been written. If Jia Mu is angry with Jia Dai today, it will be better or worse.

Jia She will definitely take the opportunity to launch.

Separate and say goodbye!

She can't live in the Rongguo Mansion, and the eldest girl can't take advantage of the power of the Ning and Rong Mansion to enter the palace and serve the Supreme Emperor!

All the hard work and plotting were in vain, and Jia Zheng couldn't help but take advantage of him.

"put……"

Jia Lian was startled when he was suddenly pulled into Jia Zheng's arms. When he saw the person in front of him clearly, he swallowed the word "si" instantly and replied:
"Sir, the old lady is very nice!"

After Jia She failed to seize power, that night, Jia Zheng's family quietly moved into Rongxi Hall, which Jia's mother had just vacated.

While the area around the east garden of Rongguo Mansion was separated, Jia Lian was also taken over and served in Jia Zheng's room, often doing errands.

Seeing that it was Jia Zheng who was asking the question, Jia Lian didn't dare not answer. Jia She, who was just eating his melons with peace of mind, was so angry that he fell back!

Huh, bastard!

Why don't you let the future knights take a good job, but they are willing to humble themselves and work as slaves for others?
It’s true that raising you is in vain!
