Not to mention, through the obituary party held by Jia Min in Lin Mansion, the marriage of two girls from the Jia family who were studying at Ning Mansion Girls' School was arranged.
The other party may be hindered by the handkerchief friendship, or may have other thoughts. In short, everyone is happy to have settled the marriage for their bastard son.
Not to mention Jia Min's mood, Ningfu Girls' School was quite a sensation.
You must know that the mainstay of the official family through Jia Min's matchmaking is a third-rank official, and the ability and conduct of the concubine who gets married are quite good.
Apart from anything else, even if you only have the status of scholar or scholar and cannot go further on the road to the imperial examination, entering the officialdom will not be a problem.
In other words, the two female students from the Ning Mansion who have already reached the age of haircut will definitely become the upright ladies of the official family.
And the families behind them are just well-off families who are better off than ordinary people in the capital.
If previous marriage habits were followed, they would not be popular in the marriage market.
At most, if you marry into a merchant family with certain financial strength and engage in small business, it will be very difficult for you to become an official wife.
After all, the reputations of the Ningrong and Jia families in the capital are not very good outside.
If Jia Rong hadn't come out of nowhere and forcibly brought the Ningrong Mansion and the Jia family in the capital out of the quagmire, the final result would have been similar to the story of the Red Mansions.
Think about how much the reputation of Ning Mansion has hurt the Jia family girls. As long as you are a normal person and understand the local customs, you will know it.
All I can say is that Jia Zhen in The Story of Red Mansions is definitely a disaster!
Of course, the current Jia family in the capital is different from the past.
Ethnology alone has continuously cultivated talents who can enter the officialdom.
Although ethnic studies have only trained one scholar so far, there are many scholars, and most of them can enter the government.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that as long as one-tenth of them can come forward, the Jia family in the capital will become more and more powerful.
No matter how small the chance of success is, three or five people in a generation are enough for the Jia family in the capital.
Not to mention, clan studies are both civil and military.
It is difficult to produce talents in the civil examination, but the martial arts examination is relatively simple and much easier.
The Jia family in the capital was originally a top-notch family of military commanders, and was well-known in the circles of nobles and military commanders.
The family's inheritance of martial arts, as well as the understanding of the military system and other aspects, can be used as the foundation and qualifications for talent cultivation.
In fact, this is indeed the case. Talents trained in ethnic studies can pass martial arts quite easily.
Even if the martial arts exams become more difficult, it is nothing to ethnic studies students.
Not only are they good at martial arts, but they have also become familiar with the military system early on. Once they pass the military examination and enter the military, they will quickly gain a foothold.
That is to say, there are not many wars in Daqian at this time, so the heroes in the army can be promoted quickly. Otherwise, if they pass the test of blood and fire, there may be ethnic students who take the martial arts path and rise up in the war.
However, after several years of talent transfer, at this time there were many military attachés with ethnic backgrounds in the Beijing camp and at the bottom of the border army.
Even though their grades are not high, once their numbers increase, they are quite a force.
As time goes by, outstanding people will always emerge.
With the Ningrong Second Mansion's sign, at least these ethnic studies students who enter the military will not be disturbed by those bad things.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Jia clan in the capital has extraordinary learning skills.
As long as they can continuously cultivate talents, the Jia family's momentum in the capital will not fall easily.
This is also the main reason why Jia Min used matchmakers and high-minded civil servants to be willing to use their concubine to marry the Jia family.
Of course, the two girls from the Jia family who studied at the Ning Mansion Women's School have quite good abilities, knowledge, and conduct, otherwise they would not be able to attract the attention of the imperial concubines.
The strength of the Ning Mansion Girls' School cannot be overshadowed.
The gold and silver that Jia Rong invested was as good as Zhizu Xue, or even more. If it didn't make a splash, would it be worth his heavy investment?
Because there is no need to take the imperial examination, there is no need to put most of your thoughts on studying the Four Books and Five Classics, and thinking about how to write eight-legged essays.
For the Four Books and Five Classics, as long as you can read smoothly and have a certain level of understanding, it is enough. More energy is spent on the study of miscellaneous subjects.
It has to be said that for a concubine from an official family, marrying a Zhengyin wife who understands miscellaneous studies is much better than the Four Books and Five Classics.
Knowledge in business, management, operations, etc. can be of great use in the process of running a small family.
Ningfu Girls' School even teaches miscellaneous studies as an important subject to its students.
Both Jia Min and Qin Keqing are quite accomplished in miscellaneous studies.
The female teacher and the nanny who were hired with a lot of money are also very capable in miscellaneous studies.
Of course, in order to prevent the marriage partner from being a nerd, female students are very strict in terms of piano, chess, calligraphy, painting and cultural literacy.
Because the number of students is not large, we even develop one or several specialties in music, chess, calligraphy and painting according to each student's interests and hobbies.
In short, the students trained by Ningfu Women's School are both vulgar and elegant, and they will not appear weak at all if they marry a concubine from an official family.
That is to say, the time is still too short at this time. When a large number of female students from Ning Mansion graduate and significantly help the husband's family, there will be hundreds of girls in every family.
Instead of having to go through Jia Min as a matchmaker like now.
At least in Jia Rong's opinion, marrying the first batch of female students at this time would be an advantage for the bastards of that family.
Of course, what Jia Rong thought was different was that the female students from ordinary backgrounds were quite excited.
Even in the women's school, Xue Baochai was very touched when she could compete with Lin Daiyu in talent and become the top student.
Of course, with Xue Baochai's perspective, he would naturally not like the concubine of any family.
At the very least, the standard must be the same as that of Jia Baoyu who lives in the second room of Rong Mansion, right?
She has great ambitions and ambitions, but she looks down upon the concubine of an official family.
However, she was very happy to participate in the imperial gathering organized by the Lin family and wanted to perform well at the party so as to leave a good reputation among the imperial family.
It's a pity that she is too young, only eleven years old at this time.
If you show too much, you won't be seen by the emperor.
These are some of the incidental things that happened after Jia Min gradually integrated into the imperial circle in the capital.
Things were going well at first, but suddenly there were rumors about the Jinmen Saltworks in the capital, and Lin Ruhai was the central figure in the rumors.
It can be said that this rumor is quite unfriendly to Lin Ruhai...
