Good farming at the foot of Changbai Mountain

Chapter 309

Dong Jiajun rushed back from the capital just in time to attend his son's baptism.When everyone saw the Jinshi of the new department, they became more enthusiastic.Although Jiajun was very anxious to see his wife and children, he couldn't leave everyone behind and ran to the back, so he had to be patient and greeted everyone.

When the time came, all the female relatives went to the back to watch the three baptisms.Although the weather in March has become much warmer, no one dares to hold the child back and forth, and Xisan is naturally outside Jinghe's house.The cumbersome process of cleaning the third party is so cumbersome that there is no need to list them one by one. After the third cleaning is over, everyone will go to the front to have a banquet.

The female family members of the Xu family were no exception. They all went to the front and celebrated lively, and then went home.

The old lady of the Dong family had said before that there would be a three-day banquet to celebrate Jiajun's winning a Jinshi.Jia Jun disagreed, "Grandma, what are you doing? Our family doesn't like to be so extravagant. Today, the Holy One advocates frugality. If people find out, let's celebrate so much. If someone sues the emperor, your grandson won't be able to eat it." Walk around." Jia Jun sat in front of his grandmother and persuaded softly.

"Aren't I happy? Could it be that my grandson won the Jinshi, and I can't celebrate it?" The old lady was a little unhappy.

"We should celebrate, so we can invite all our relatives and friends, and set up a few tables of banquets. Why do we have to set up some floating banquets? Back then, the second brother-in-law won the first prize, and I didn't hear how he made it public. And the third brother , they also won the number one prize, is it possible that their grandson is much better than them?" Jia Jun was talking about Zixuan and Wenchang.

Jiajun's words made the old lady very uncomfortable, "What do we compare with others? Our family name is Dong." The old lady was a little unhappy.The Xu family's children are outstanding, compared to their own grandchildren who are not so good.This realization made the old lady feel uncomfortable.If this changed to someone else's family, my uncle won the Jinshi, then this status will be great in the future.But in Xu's family, it's really nothing, they have produced a lot of officials.It was the first time that the old lady was dissatisfied with the Xu family. If she had known earlier, she should have found a relative with a poor family background.

"Grandma, our Dong family is nothing compared to others. They all act low-key, why do we bother to be so public, isn't it our grandson who will suffer then?" Jiajun was a little confused, grandma What are you thinking about?Wouldn't it be great to save a little?The life of the Dong family has only been around for more than ten years, right?It's not a big deal nowadays.

Jiajun's father nodded beside him, "Mother, let's listen to Jiajun, he's right. There's a lot of rivalry in the court, and Jiajun has just won a Jinshi, so he doesn't want to show off."

The old lady turned her head away in anger and ignored her son and grandson.

Seeing the situation, Jiajun felt a little helpless, "Grandma, father, mother, and the child came back all the way. They are really tired. Let's go and rest first. Besides, I haven't visited Jinghe yet when I come back." Jun said, got up and walked to the backyard.

"Look, this is the good son you raised. Now he has a daughter-in-law, and he doesn't even want his grandmother and parents." The old lady wiped tears there when her grandson left.

Looking at the things in front of her, Mrs. Feng remembered the past. When she got married, this old lady was always looking for trouble.After so many years, I have also become a mother-in-law, but I still have no status in the family. The old lady takes care of the family affairs and just does not delegate power.Feng Shi was very happy that his son treated the old lady like this, so he didn't persuade the old lady and just sat there without saying a word.

Jiajun's father hurriedly stepped forward to persuade him, the old lady stopped crying, but she was determined to put someone beside her grandson in her heart.If I bring the little granddaughter of my sister's family here, I can help my sister's family more in the future.

"Miss, you have worked hard." Jiajun sat beside his wife, looking at Jinghe and his son, feeling infinitely satisfied.Dong's family is thin, with two brothers and father, the mother only gave birth to herself, and the uncle's family also has a boy.Now Jing and herself have three children, which makes Jiajun very happy. No matter which man is, he hopes that his children and grandchildren will prosper.

"Stupid words again, I am your wife, and it is only right and proper to have children for you. As long as you treat me well all the time, we husband and wife will love each other and never leave each other. Can you do it?" Jing He In my heart, I was also a little scared. Now that my husband's status is different, what might he be like in the future.

"Don't worry, lady, I will only treat you well and will not bully you." Jiajun reached out and held Jinghe's hand, and the two of them just looked at each other with affection in their eyes.

Suddenly, the little baby burst into tears, breaking the spell between the two.The little girl outside hurried in to help check if the child had urinated.

Jia Jun got up, "I sleep in the study in the west room at night, you should have a good rest, remember to call me at night if you need something."

"Okay, you're tired enough on this journey, you'd better rest early." Jing He said with a smile.

Next, the Dong family found a good day, invited relatives and friends, and had a good time together.Afterwards, Jiajun stayed at home with Jinghe, while busy packing things, preparing to go to the capital.

"Jinghe, let's go to the capital, what about your dowry and shop?" Jiajun suddenly remembered this when he was packing his things.

When Jinghe married back then, the Xu family also gave away 1 acres of land and a shop.Later, with the help of Jing Han, Jinghe set up a few more shops, one selling fabrics, the other an embroidery shop, and the other a roast duck shop.These shops are very profitable, with an annual profit of about [-] taels, almost catching up with the annual income of the Dong family.The people Jingxian sent to Jinghe at the beginning have become the big managers outside, and the Dong family can't get involved in these matters.

After listening to Jiajun's words, Jinghe laughed, "What's the problem? Just let the second sister-in-law Wang's family stay. They will run the business and send the proceeds to the capital every year. There is Wencheng here. My brother is here, so they wouldn’t dare to fool me.” The dowry is the woman’s private property, and the husband’s family cannot interfere.

Jia Jun thought about it, but it was feasible. They went to the capital, and they didn't know what it would be like.If the shop is dealt with hastily, and there is no income there, it will be a bad thing at that time, so it is better to be like this for now.Besides, after three years, he might not be sent there yet. "It's better for the lady to think farther away. Okay, then wait until you are out of confinement, and then tell Mrs. Wang's family."

"By the way, these people in the mansion, you know which ones you want to take away. Tell these people in advance, if there are people who don't want to follow, we will find a way to arrange them. I have been with you for several years, It’s not good to hurt someone’s heart.” Jia Jun ordered a few words, and went to the study to sort out his books.
