"What do you mean? It's just an opportunistic move to curry favor with Jin Shang." The princess quit and said reluctantly.
"Who doesn't want to curry favor with Jin Shang? Why do you think there were so many people who were on the wrong side before? They could wait for Jin Shang to come to power before currying favor with him. The only ones who can still curry favor with him are the Jia family. They separated the family for an orphan girl. , Mr. Xia went to see him in person; the old lady was seriously ill, and the old saint sent an imperial doctor. No matter why, it was that the old saint’s side had not lost its sacred heart; the new emperor’s side, they had it in place. This old lady was an extraordinary person. Yea." Academician Xiong lowered his head and thought to himself, his eyes narrowed slightly. Thinking about it, it really felt like a pity, but at this time, he really couldn't step forward anymore.
"So we should listen to the boss, no, I should say, listen to the old lady and let the second child take over?" Princess Longchang thought about it, if so, maybe the old lady's suggestion was right? Maybe it's really good for his son to become a successor?
"Come on, your eldest son is a big fool who pretends to be smart. Why did Mrs. Jia say that the second child should be separated? Because they like the second child and don't like us. Why does the boss let the second child be separated now? He is afraid of being implicated. But also I don’t want to think about it, but the second child has offended many people, but he has a knife in his hand! And the only person in our family related to the new emperor is the second child. People in the court are more afraid of us than respectful, and it is also because of the second child. No more fear , then our family will really be finished."
Academician Xiong was speechless. Now they could see that it was the old lady of the Jia family who had a keen eye. They could see that only the second child in their family could be trusted. But because the second child was born in this family, they finally gave up. Looking at it now, they are not as courageous as the Jia family, and they are not as broad-minded. Now that they don't even have the wisdom, Academician Xiong is a little discouraged.
He doesn't care what happens to his wife, but his son, the eldest son! Therefore, I used to think that the eldest son could not be promoted, which was a deliberate act of self-destruction. Now think about it, where are the fools? Those old people, who can occupy the position, are not foxes of thousands of years. It's true that from ten miles away, I can smell the little ninety-nine in your belly. If you are not promoted for seven years, to put it bluntly, it means that you are really not worthy of your promotion.
The Xiong family was talking about the Jia family, but it was a pity that they missed it at the beginning, and another family in the city also gathered around to talk about the Jia family and Yuanchun.
In Zhanghou Mansion, Zhanghou and Zhang Shangshu are brothers, and there are two younger brothers below who are both concubines. Their family's problem is not a legitimate concubine's problem. As mentioned before, Jia's mother and Mrs. Zhang were handkerchiefs, but Mrs. Zhang died early, and the second generation Hou was served by an old concubine before his death. The third and fourth children were born from the old aunt.
In fact, speaking of it, such a family is considered very clean among the noble families in the capital. But it is really not as good as having a bunch of aunts at home, who are really competing for their beauty. On the contrary, Madam is not so painful. But there is only one who has grown up together since childhood, and Madam has no place to treat her. Because people are true love!
For example, the relationship between the second generation Changling Hou and his wife is the relationship between the child's parents. After giving birth to two sons and completing the mission, they both hated each other, so the old lady left very early.
When the second generation Hou was young, he also fought with Dai Shan, and he was a very rough-tempered person. I don't understand the twists and turns of the inner house at all. However, Chang Ling Hou of the first generation was very clear-sighted and brought his two legitimate grandsons to his own courtyard to raise them when they were young.
In this way, the relationship between the second generation Changling Marquis and his eldest son and second son was really more than average. On the contrary, the two concubines spent more time with their aunt and had a deeper relationship.
When the first generation of Marquis Changling passed away, Marquis Zhang had already gotten married, reported to the Crown Prince, and took charge of the affairs of the Marquis Mansion for his grandfather. .net
At that time, although the second generation Changling Marquis had assumed the title of nobility, all the major affairs of the Marquis Mansion were managed by Xiao Zhanghou and his wife. The reason is also very good. There is no mistress in the house, but there happens to be the eldest grandson's daughter-in-law, who is also the wife of the prince, so the housekeeper is not suitable. You can't let a concubine take care of the house, right?
The second generation Changling Marquis was not confused. Although he always preferred his aunt and his two younger sons, he also knew that his aunt was a maid and concubine and could not be corrected. Letting her take care of the house is like using a concubine as a wife. If the news spreads later, it will not be good for the sons. The sons in his heart are still two younger sons.
A generation of Marquis Changling thought he had arranged everything, so he died with peace of mind. Unexpectedly, I was put in a position in the end.
Before the death of the second-generation Hou, he did not follow the family law set by the first-generation Hou, allowing the sons of concubines to separate their families after marriage. When he died, he specifically told Xiao Zhanghou in front of the Manchu people to take good care of his old aunt and not to separate the family.
Xiao Zhanghou had no choice but to agree, otherwise, if so many people in the clan were watching, they would probably accuse him of being unfilial. Although, their brothers had no feelings for the second generation marquis. Of course, that time, the already weak father-son relationship between the second generation Hou and Xiao Zhang Hou made matters worse. During the funeral, Xiao Zhanghou and Zhang Shangshu did not shed a single tear.
Because of the second-generation Hou's instructions before his death, all kinds of strange things happened in the Hou's mansion in recent years. Otherwise, Zhang Zhen would not have annoyed this big family to death. Otherwise, Zhang Zhen would not feel friendly and happy when he saw the old lady of the Jia family. Because my father and uncle spoke highly of my great-grandmother. Jia Mu said that she and the old lady had a handkerchief relationship, which suddenly gave Zhang Zhen an empathic effect.
With Jia She and Jia Zhen's deliberate friendship, on the fourth day of the Shi family turmoil, he heard that the old lady had recovered, so he hurriedly told his parents that he wanted to propose marriage to his family.
The reputation of the Jia family is actually quite good these days. Apart from being a dead house, there is really nothing else. The main thing is that the Jia family has dealt with one or two hundred servants before, which actually caused quite a big fuss. After these unruly slaves are dealt with, everyone will It is natural to feel that the previous bad reputation was all due to being a slave.
Let's talk about Jia Yuanchun, she came out of the palace and missed the flowering period. She was a female official of the fifth rank, and the concubine returned the favor with jade as she wished. So in terms of appearance, conduct, and intelligence, she is probably the best choice. So Zhang Hou and Zhang Shangshu were still satisfied.
The two gentlemen agreed, and the two Mrs. Zhang hurriedly went to Jia's house to see the real person, and they were very happy.
Over the years, they have been tortured by that old aunt to no avail. She really thinks of herself as an old lady. If someone has a son and is slightly dissatisfied, they will make a huge fuss and say that they are unfilial, but they promised the master to take care of her. The three-bedroom and four-bedroom apartments are also surrounded by evil spirits. The two gentlemen can hide, but the two of them as wives really can't.
So in recent years, Zhang Hou, Zhang Shangshu, and the direct sons of the Zhang family have no aunts, and they are all annoyed by their aunts. If the maids in the mansion are a little more showy, Zhang Hou and his wife, Zhang Shangshu and his wife will have to be sent away.
Seeing that Yuanchun was so well-behaved and handsome, the two Mrs. Zhangs suddenly felt happy. I feel that Yuanchun's status is neither high nor low. After all, the eldest daughter-in-law will be the head of the family in the future. The second daughter-in-law cannot have a higher status than the eldest daughter-in-law, otherwise the eldest daughter-in-law will not look good over there. But she is also the eldest daughter-in-law of the second wife, so she must be able to take on the responsibility. Therefore, Yuanchun is not of high status, but has a stable temperament and good skills. They feel that she is a tailor-made daughter-in-law for their family.
